Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES
General
Auburn National Bancorporation, Inc. (the “Company”) provides a full range
of banking services to individuals
and
commercial customers in Lee County,
Alabama and surrounding areas through its wholly owned subsidiary,
AuburnBank
(the “Bank”). The Company does not have any segments other than banking
that are considered material.
Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates
The unaudited consolidated financial statements in this report have
been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information.
Accordingly, these financial statements
do not
include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete
financial statements.
The unaudited
consolidated financial statements include, in the opinion of management,
all adjustments necessary to present a fair
statement of the financial position and the results of operations for all periods presented.
All such adjustments are of a
normal recurring nature. The results of operations in the interim statements are not
necessarily indicative of the results of
operations that the Company and its subsidiaries may achieve for future interim
periods or the entire year. For
further
information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes included
in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts
of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.
Significant intercompany transactions and accounts are eliminated in
consolidation.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires
management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures
of contingent assets and liabilities as of
the balance sheet date and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the reporting period.
Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in
the near term
include the determination of allowance for credit losses on loans and
investment securities, fair value of financial
instruments, and the valuation of deferred tax assets and other real estate owned
(“OREO”).
Revenue Recognition
The Company’s sources of
income that fall within the scope of ASC 606 include service charges on
deposits, ATM
and
interchange fees and gains and losses on sales of other real estate, all of which
are presented as components of noninterest
income. The following is a summary of the revenue streams that fall within
the scope of ASC 606:
Service charges on deposits, investment services, ATM
and interchange fees – Fees from these services are either
(i) transaction-based, for which the performance obligations are satisfied when the
individual transaction is
processed, or (ii) set periodic service charges, for which the performance
obligations are satisfied over the period
the service is provided. Transaction-based
fees are recognized at the time the transaction is processed, and periodic
service charges are recognized over the service period.
Gains on sales of OREO
–
A gain on sale should be recognized when a contract for sale exists and control of the
asset has been transferred to the buyer.
ASC 606 lists several criteria required to conclude that a contract for sale
exists, including a determination that the institution will collect substantially all of the
consideration to which it is
entitled.
In addition to the loan-to-value ratio, where the seller provides the purchaser
with financing, the analysis
is based on various other factors, including the credit quality of the
purchaser, the structure of the loan, and any
other factors that we believe may affect collectability.
Subsequent Events
The Company has evaluated the effects of events and
transactions through the date of this filing that have occurred
subsequent to September 30, 2024.
The Company does not believe there were any material subsequent events during
this
period that would have required further recognition or disclosure in the
unaudited consolidated financial statements
included in this report.
Correction of Error
The disclosure of loans by vintage in Note 5 – Loans and Allowance for Credit
Losses in the Company’s Annual
Report on
Form 10-K for year ended December 31, 2023 contained incorrect
information as it pertains to loans originated by vintage
and revolving loans.
All current period gross charge-off data, total loans by segment
and total loans by credit quality
indicator were correctly reported.
The loans originated by vintage and revolving loans as of December 31, 2023 have been
corrected in the comparative presentation in Note 5 – Loans and Allowance
for Credit Losses in the Notes herein.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts reported in prior periods have been reclassified to
conform to the current-period presentation. These
reclassifications had no effect on the Company’s
previously reported net earnings or total stockholders’ equity.
Accounting Standards Adopted in 2024
On January 1, 2024, the Company adopted ASU 2023-02,
Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures
(Topic
323):
Accounting for Investments in Tax
Credit Structures Using
the Proportional Amortization Method
.
ASU 2023-02 now
permits reporting entities to elect to account for their equity investments made
primarily to receive income tax credits and
other income tax benefits, regardless of the program from which the income
tax credits or benefits are received, using the
proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met. The
new standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim
periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15,
The Company adopted ASU 2023-02 effective
January 1, 2024 and recorded a cumulative effect of change in accounting
standard adjustment which reduced beginning
retained earnings by $0.3 million.
The Company, beginning January
1, 2024, accounts
for its investments in New Markets
Tax Credits (“NMTCs”) using
the proportional amortization method through charges to
the provision for income taxes. See
Note 3, Variable
Interest Entities.
NOTE 2: BASIC AND DILUTED NET EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic net earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted
average common shares outstanding for
the respective period.
Diluted net earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur upon
exercise of
securities or other rights for, or convertible into,
shares of the Company’s common stock.
At September 30, 2024 and
2023, respectively,
the Company had no such securities or rights issued or outstanding, and therefore, no dilutive
effect to
consider for the diluted net earnings per share calculation.
The basic and diluted net earnings per share computations for the respective
periods are presented below

NOTE 3: VARIABLE
INTEREST ENTITIES
Generally, a variable interest
entity (“VIE”) is a corporation, partnership, trust or other legal structure that
does not have
equity investors with substantive or proportional voting rights or has equity
investors that do not provide sufficient financial
resources for the entity to support its activities.
At September 30, 2024, the Company did not have any consolidated VIEs but did
have one nonconsolidated VIE, discussed
below.
New Markets Tax
Credit Investment
The
NMTC
program
provides
federal
tax
incentives
to
investors
to
make
investments
in
distressed
communities
and
promotes
economic
improvement
through
the
of
successful
businesses
in
these
communities.
NMTCs
are
available
to
investors
over
seven
years
and
are
subject
to
recapture
if
certain
events
occur
during
such
period.
At
2024 and December
31, 2023, respectively,
the Company
had one such
investment of $1.0
million and $1.7
million, respectively,
which was included in other assets in the Company’s
consolidated balance sheets as a VIE.
While the
Company’s
investment exceeds
50% of
the outstanding
equity interest
in this
VIE, the
Company does
not consolidate
the
VIE because
the Company
lacks the
power to
direct the activities
of the
VIE, and
therefore is
not a primary
beneficiary of
the VIE.
On March 29, 2023, the FASB
issued ASU 2023-02, which was effective beginning in 2024
for public business entities.
We
have
adopted
ASU
2023-02
as
of
January
1,
with
respect
to
accounting
for
our
NMTC
investment.
The
proportional amortization
method results
in the
tax credit investment
being amortized
in proportion
to the allocation
of tax
credits and other
tax benefits in each
period and a
net presentation within
the income tax
line item.
The cumulative effects
of
the
change
in
accounting
standard
resulted
in
a
$0.4
million
pre-tax
decrease
in
the
Company’s
NMTC
investment
at
January 1, 2024.

For the securities in the previous table, the Company considers the severity of
the unrealized loss as well as the Company’s
intent to hold the securities to maturity or the recovery of the cost basis.
Unrealized losses have not been recognized into
income as the decline in fair value is largely due to changes in interest rates
and other market conditions.
For the securities
held as of September 30, 2024 in the table immediately above, management
does not intend to sell and it is likely that
management will not be required to sell the securities prior to their recovery.
Agency Obligations
Investments in agency obligations are guaranteed as to full and timely
payment of principal and interest by the issuing
agency.
Based on management's analysis and judgement, there were no credit losses attributable
to the Company’s
investments in agency obligations at September 30, 2024.
Investments in agency mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) are MBS issued by
Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae, and Freddie
Mac.
Each of these agencies provide a guarantee of full and timely payments of principal and
interest on their respective
MBS by the issuing agency.
Based on management's analysis and judgement, there were no
credit losses attributable to the
Company’s investments
in agency MBS at September 30, 2024.

Total Loans
$

$
557,294
Loans secured by real estate were approximately 87.4% of the Company’s
total loan portfolio at September 30, 2024.
At
September 30, 2024, the Company’s
geographic loan distribution was concentrated primarily in Lee County,
Alabama, and
surrounding areas.
The loan portfolio segment is defined as the level at which an entity develops
and documents a systematic method for
determining its allowance for credit losses. As part of the Company’s
quarterly assessment of the allowance, the loan
portfolio included the following portfolio segments: commercial and
industrial, construction and land development,
commercial real estate, residential real estate, and consumer installment. Where appropriate,
the Company’s loan portfolio
segments are further disaggregated into classes. A class is generally determined
based on the initial measurement attribute,
risk characteristics of the loan, and an entity’s
method for monitoring and determining credit risk.
The following describes
the risk characteristics relevant to each of the portfolio segments and classes.
Commercial and industrial (“C&I”) —
includes loans to finance business operations, equipment purchases, or
other needs
for small and medium-sized commercial customers. Also
included in this category are loans to finance agricultural
production.
Generally, the primary source of repayment
is the cash flow from business operations and activities of the
borrower.
Construction and land development (“C&D”) —
includes both loans and credit lines for the purpose of purchasing,
carrying,
and developing land into commercial developments or residential subdivisions.
Also included are loans and credit
lines for construction of residential, multi-family,
and commercial buildings. Generally,
the primary source of repayment is
dependent upon the sale or refinance of the real estate collateral.
(“CRE”) —
includes loans in these classes:
– includes loans secured by business facilities to finance business operations, equipment
and
owner-occupied facilities primarily for small and medium-sized
commercial customers.
Generally, the primary
source of repayment is the cash flow from business operations and activities of
the borrower, who owns the
property.
– includes loans for hotels and motels.
Generally, the primary source
of repayment is dependent upon
income generated from the hotel/motel securing the loan.
The underwriting of these loans takes into consideration
the occupancy and rental rates, as well as the financial health of the borrower.
– primarily includes loans to finance income-producing
multi-family properties. These include loans
for 5 or more unit residential properties and apartments leased to residents.
Generally,
the primary source of
repayment is dependent upon income generated from the real estate collateral. The
underwriting of these loans
takes into consideration the occupancy and rental rates, as well as the financial
health of the respective borrowers.
Other
– primarily includes loans to finance income-producing commercial
properties other than hotels/motels and
multi-family properties, and which
are not owner occupied.
Loans in this class include loans for neighborhood
retail centers,
medical and professional offices, single retail stores, industrial
buildings, and warehouses leased to
local and other businesses. Generally,
the primary source of repayment is dependent upon income generated from
the real estate collateral. The underwriting of these loans takes into consideration
the occupancy and rental rates,
as well as the financial health of the borrower.
Residential real estate (“RRE”) —
includes loans in these two classes:
– primarily includes
first or second lien mortgages and home equity lines of credit to
consumers that are secured by a primary residence or second home. These loans are underwritten
in accordance
with the Bank’s general loan policies and
procedures which require, among other things, proper documentation of
each borrower’s financial condition, satisfactory credit
history,
and property value.
– primarily includes loans to finance income-producing 1-4 family residential
properties.
Generally,
the primary source of repayment is dependent upon income generated from
leasing the property
securing the loan. The underwriting of these loans takes into consideration
the rental rates and property values, as
well as the financial health of the borrowers.
Consumer installment —
includes loans to individuals,
which may be secured by personal property or are unsecured.
Loans
include personal lines of credit, automobile loans, and other retail loans.
These loans are underwritten in accordance with
the Bank’s general loan policies and
procedures which require, among other things, proper documentation
of each
borrower’s financial condition, satisfactory credit history,
and, if applicable, property values.
The following is a summary of current, accruing past due, and nonaccrual

Credit Quality Indicators
The credit quality of the loan portfolio is summarized no less frequently than
quarterly using categories similar to the
standard asset classification system used by the federal banking agencies.
These categories are utilized to develop the
associated allowance for credit losses using historical losses adjusted for
qualitative and environmental factors and are
defined as follows:
Pass – loans which are well protected by the current net worth and paying capacity
of the obligor (or guarantors, if
any) or by the fair value, less cost to acquire and sell, of any underlying collateral.
Special Mention – loans with potential weakness that may,
if not reversed or corrected, weaken the credit or
inadequately protect the Company’s
position at some future date. These loans are not adversely classified and do
not expose an institution to sufficient risk to warrant an
adverse classification.
Substandard Accruing – loans that exhibit a well-defined weakness which
presently jeopardizes debt repayment,
even though they are currently performing. These loans are characterized
by the distinct possibility that the
Company may incur a loss in the future if these weaknesses are not corrected.
Nonaccrual – includes loans where management has determined that
full payment of principal and interest is not
expected.
Substandard accrual and nonaccrual loans are often collectively referred
to as “classified.”
The following tables presents credit quality indicators for the loan portfolio
segments and classes by year of origination as
of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
The December 31, 2023 table has been revised to correct revolving loans
and properly allocate loans by year of origination.

of Error.

Allowance for Credit Losses
The Company adopted ASC 326 on January 1, 2023, which introduced
the CECL methodology for estimating all expected
losses over the life of a financial asset. Under the CECL methodology,
the allowance for credit losses is measured on a
collective basis for pools of loans with similar risk characteristics, and for loans
that do not share similar risk characteristics
with the collectively evaluated pools, evaluations are performed
on an individual basis.
The composition of the provision for (reversal of) credit losses for the respective
periods is presented below.

NOTE 6: MORTGAGE SERVICING
RIGHTS, NET
Mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) are recognized based on the fair
value of the servicing rights on the date the
corresponding mortgage loans are sold.
An estimate of the fair value of the Company’s
MSRs is determined using
assumptions that market participants would use in estimating future net
servicing income, including estimates of
prepayment speeds, discount rates, default rates, costs to service, escrow account
earnings, contractual servicing fee
income, ancillary income, and late fees.
Subsequent to the date of transfer, the Company
has elected to measure its MSRs
under the amortization method.
Under the amortization method, MSRs are amortized in proportion to, and over
the period
of, estimated net servicing income.
The Company generally sells, without recourse, conforming, fixed-rate, closed-end,
residential mortgages to Fannie Mae,
where the Company services the mortgages sold and records MSRs.
MSRs are included in other assets on the
accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
The Company evaluates MSRs for impairment on a quarterly basis.
Impairment is determined by stratifying MSRs into
groupings based on predominant risk characteristics, such as interest rate and
loan type.
If, by individual stratum, the
carrying amount of the MSRs exceeds fair value, a valuation allowance is established.
The valuation allowance is adjusted
as the fair value changes.
Changes in the valuation allowance are recognized in earnings as a component
of mortgage
lending income.
The following table details the changes in amortized MSRs and the related valuation
allowance for the respective periods.

NOTE 7: FAIR VALUE
Hierarchy
“Fair value” is defined by ASC 820,
Measurements and Disclosures
, and focuses on the exit price, i.e., the price
that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction
occurring in the principal
market (or most advantageous market in the absence of a principal market)
for an asset or liability at the measurement date.
GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority
to quoted prices in active
markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs.
The fair value hierarchy is as
follows:
Level 1—inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices, unadjusted,
for identical assets or liabilities in active
markets.
Level 2—inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and
liabilities in active markets,
quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not
active, or inputs that are observable for the
asset or liability, either directly
or indirectly.
Level 3—inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and reflect
the Company’s own assumptions about
the
inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
Level changes in fair value measurements
Transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy
are generally recognized at the end of each reporting period.
The
Company monitors the valuation techniques utilized for each category
of financial assets and liabilities to ascertain when
transfers between levels have been affected.
The nature of the Company’s financial
assets and liabilities generally is such
that transfers in and out of any level are expected to be infrequent.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, there
were no transfers between levels and no changes in valuation techniques for
the Company’s financial assets and liabilities.
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring
basis
Securities available-for-sale
Fair values of securities available for sale were primarily measured
using Level 2 inputs.
For these securities, the Company
obtains pricing data from third party pricing services.
These third party pricing services consider observable data that may
include broker/dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, benchmark yields,
reported trades for similar securities, market
consensus prepayment speeds, credit information, and the securities’ terms
and conditions.
On a quarterly basis,
management reviews the pricing data received from the third party pricing
services for reasonableness given current market
conditions.
As part of its review, management may
obtain non-binding third party broker/dealer quotes to validate
the fair
value measurements.
In addition, management will periodically submit pricing information
provided by the third party
pricing services to another independent valuation firm on a sample basis.
This independent valuation firm will compare the
prices
provided by the third party pricing service with its own prices
and will review the significant assumptions and
valuation methodologies used with management.
The following table presents the balances of the assets and liabilities measured at fair
value on a recurring basis as of
September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively,
by caption, on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets by
ASC 820 valuation hierarchy (as described above).

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring
basis
Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value. Fair values of loans
held for sale are determined using
quoted secondary market prices for similar loans.
Loans held for sale are classified within Level 2 of the fair value
hierarchy.
Collateral dependent loans are measured at the fair value of the collateral securing
the loan less estimated selling costs. The
fair value of real estate collateral is determined based on real estate appraisals which
are generally based on recent sales of
comparable properties which are then adjusted for property specific factors.
Non-real estate collateral is valued based on
various sources, including third party asset valuations and internally determined
values based on cost adjusted for
depreciation and other judgmentally determined discount factors. Collateral dependent
loans are classified within Level 3 of
the hierarchy due to the unobservable inputs used in determining their fair
value such as collateral values and the borrower's
underlying financial condition.
MSRs, net, included in other assets on the accompanying consolidated balance
sheets, are carried at the lower of cost or
estimated fair value.
MSRs do not trade in an active market with readily observable prices.
To determine the fair
value of
MSRs, the Company engages an independent third party.
The independent third party’s valuation
model calculates the
present value of estimated future net servicing income using assumptions that
market participants would use in estimating
future net servicing income, including estimates of mortgage prepayment
speeds, discount rates, default rates, costs to
service, escrow account earnings, contractual servicing fee income,
ancillary income, and late fees.
Periodically, the
Company will review broker surveys and other market research
to validate significant assumptions used in the model.
The
significant unobservable inputs include mortgage prepayment speeds
or the constant prepayment rate (“CPR”) and the
weighted average discount rate.
Because the valuation of MSRs requires the use of significant unobservable inputs,
all of
the Company’s MSRs are classified within
Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.
The following table presents the balances of the assets and liabilities measured at fair
value on a nonrecurring basis as of
September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively,

of Financial Instruments
ASC 825,
Financial Instruments
, requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments,
whether or not
recognized on the face of the balance sheet, where it is practicable to
estimate that value. The assumptions used in the
estimation of the fair value of the Company’s
financial instruments are explained below.
Where quoted market prices are
not available, fair values are based on estimates using discounted cash flow
analyses. Discounted cash flows can be
significantly affected by the assumptions used, including
the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. The
following fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to
independent markets and should not be considered
representative of the liquidation value of the Company’s
financial instruments, but rather are good-faith estimates of the fair
value of financial instruments held by the Company.
ASC 825 excludes certain financial instruments and all nonfinancial
instruments from its disclosure requirements.
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating
the fair value of its financial instruments:
Fair values for loans were calculated using discounted cash flows. The discount
rates reflected current rates at which similar
loans would be made for the same remaining maturities. Expected
future cash flows were projected based on contractual
cash flows, adjusted for estimated prepayments.
The fair value of loans was measured using an exit price notion.
Fair values of loans held for sale are determined using quoted secondary
market prices for similar loans.
Fair values for time deposits were estimated using discounted cash
flows.
The discount rates were based on rates currently
offered for deposits with similar remaining maturities.
The carrying value, related estimated fair value,
and placement in the fair value hierarchy of the Company’s
financial
instruments at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 are presented
below.
This table excludes financial instruments
for which the carrying amount approximates fair value.
Financial assets for which fair value approximates carrying value
included cash and cash equivalents.
Financial liabilities for which fair value approximates carrying value included
noninterest-bearing demand deposits, interest-bearing demand deposits, and
savings deposits.
Fair value approximates
carrying value in these financial liabilities due to these products having
no stated maturity.
Additionally, financial
liabilities for which fair value approximates carrying value included overnight
borrowings such as federal funds purchased
and securities sold under agreements to repurchase.
