PENNS WOODS BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

Note 1.  Basis of Presentation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Penns Woods Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries: Woods Investment Company, Inc., Woods Real Estate Development Company, Inc., and Jersey Shore State Bank (the “Bank”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, The M Group, Inc. D/B/A The Comprehensive Financial Group (“The M Group”).  All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation.

 

The interim financial statements are unaudited but, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of results for such periods.  The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.  These financial statements should be read in conjunction with financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.

 

The accounting policies followed in the presentation of interim financial results are the same as those followed on an annual basis.  These policies are presented on pages 41 through 47 of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.

 

In reference to the attached financial statements, all adjustments are of a normal recurring nature pursuant to Rule 10-01(b) (8) of Regulation S-X.

 

Note 2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In December 2007, the FASB issued FAS No. 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations (“FAS 141(R)”), which establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in an acquiree, including the recognition and measurement of goodwill acquired in a business combination.  FAS No. 141(R) is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008.  Earlier adoption is prohibited.  The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

 

In September 2006, the FASB issued FAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, which provides enhanced guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities.  The standard applies whenever other standards require or permit assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value.  The Standard does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances.  FAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years.  In February 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position No. 157-1, Application of FASB Statement No. 157 to FASB Statement No. 13 and Other Accounting Pronouncements That Address Fair Value Measurements for Purposes of Lease

Table of Contents

 

Classification or Measurement under Statement 13, which removed leasing transactions accounted for under FAS No. 13 and related guidance from the scope of FAS No. 157.  Also in February 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position No.157-2, Partial Deferral of the Effective Date of Statement 157, which deferred the effective date of FAS No. 157 for all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008.  On January 1, 2008, the Company adopted FAS No. 157 which did not have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position, see Note 8.

 

In September 2006, the FASB issued FAS No. 158, Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Post Retirement Plans, an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106 and 132(R). This Statement requires that employers measure plan assets and obligations as of the balance sheet date.  This requirement is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008.  The other provisions of the Statement were effective as of the end of the fiscal year ending after December 15, 2006, for public companies.  The complete adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

 

In February 2007, the FASB issued FAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities — Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115, which provides all entities with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value. The objective of the FAS No. 159 is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply the complex provisions of hedge accounting.  FAS No. 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year beginning after November 15, 2007.  Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year that begins on or before November 15, 2007 provided the entity also elects to apply the provisions of FAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements.  On January 31, 2008, the Company adopted FAS No. 159 which did not have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

 

In December 2007, the FASB issued FAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements — an amendment of ARB No. 51.  FAS No. 160 amends ARB No. 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary.  It clarifies that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary, which is sometimes referred to as minority interest, is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements.  Among other requirements, this statement requires consolidated net income to be reported at amounts that include the amounts attributable to both the parent and the noncontrolling interest.  It also requires disclosure, on the face of the consolidated income statement, of the amounts of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest.   FAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008.  Earlier adoption is prohibited.  The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

 

In September 2006, the FASB reached consensus on the guidance provided by Emerging Issues Task Force Issue 06-4 (“EITF 06-4”), Accounting for Deferred Compensation and Postretirement Benefit Aspects of Endorsement Split-Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements.  The guidance is applicable to endorsement split-dollar life insurance arrangements, whereby the

 

8



Table of Contents

 

employer owns and controls the insurance policy, that are associated with a postretirement benefit.  EITF 06-4 requires that for a split-dollar life insurance arrangement within the scope of the Issue, an employer should recognize a liability for future benefits in accordance with FAS No. 106 (if, in substance, a postretirement benefit plan exists) or Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 12 (if the arrangement is, in substance, an individual deferred compensation contract) based on the substantive agreement with the employee.  EITF 06-4 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007.  On January 1, 2008, the Company adopted EITF 06-04 which resulted in an adjustment to retained earnings and an associated liability in the amount of $437,000.

 

In March 2007, the FASB ratified Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 06-10 (“EITF 06-10”), Accounting for Collateral Assignment Split-Dollar Life Insurance Agreements. EITF 06-10 provides guidance for determining a liability for the postretirement benefit obligation as well as recognition and measurement of the associated asset on the basis of the terms of the collateral assignment agreement. EITF 06-10 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007. On January 1, 2008, the Company adopted EITF 06-10 which did not have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

 

In June 2007, the FASB ratified Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 06-11 (“EITF 06-11”), Accounting for Income Tax Benefits of Dividends on Share-Based Payment Awards.  EITF 06-11 applies to share-based payment arrangements with dividend protection features that entitle employees to receive (a) dividends on equity-classified nonvested shares, (b) dividend equivalents on equity-classified nonvested share units, or (c) payments equal to the dividends paid on the underlying shares while an equity-classified share option is outstanding, when those dividends or dividend equivalents are charged to retained earnings under FAS No. 123R, Share-Based Payment, and result in an income tax deduction for the employer. A consensus was reached that a realized income tax benefit from dividends or dividend equivalents that are charged to retained earnings and are paid to employees for equity-classified nonvested equity shares, nonvested equity share units, and outstanding equity share options should be recognized as an increase in additional paid-in capital.  EITF 06-11 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years.  On January 1, 2008, the Company adopted EITF 06-11 which did not have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

 

In March 2008, the FASB issued FAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, to require enhanced disclosures about derivative instruments and hedging activities. The new standard has revised financial reporting for derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring more transparency about how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under FAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities; and how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows.  FAS No. 161 requires disclosure of the fair values of derivative instruments and their gains and losses in a tabular format. It also requires entities to provide more information about their liquidity by requiring disclosure of derivative features that are credit risk-related. Further, it requires cross-referencing within footnotes to enable financial statement users to locate important information about derivative instruments.  FAS No. 161 is effective for

financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encourage.  The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

 

In May 2008, the FASB issued FAS No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. FAS No. 162 identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (the GAAP hierarchy). FAS No. 162 will become effective 60 days following the SEC’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The Company does not expect the adoption of FAS No. 162 to have a material effect on its results of operations and financial position.

 

In April 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. 142-3, Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets (“FSP 142-3”). FSP 142-3 amends the factors that should be considered in developing assumptions about renewal or extension used in estimating the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under FAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. This standard is intended to improve the consistency between the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under FAS No. 142 and the period of expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of the asset under FAS No. 141R  and other GAAP. FSP 142-3 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The measurement provisions of this standard will apply only to intangible assets of the Company acquired after the effective date.

 

In June 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. EITF 03-6-1, Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities, to clarify that instruments granted in share-based payment transactions can be participating securities prior to the requisite service having been rendered.  A basic principle of the FSP is that unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities and are to be included in the computation of EPS pursuant to the two-class method.  The provisions of this FSP are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those years. All prior-period EPS data presented (including interim financial statements, summaries of earnings, and selected financial data) are required to be adjusted retrospectively to conform with the provisions of the FSP.  The adoption of this FSP is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

 

In October 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. 157-3, Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset is Not Active.   This FSP clarifies the application of FAS Statement No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, in a market that is not active and provides an example to illustrate key considerations in determining the fair value of a financial asset when the market for that financial asset is not active.  This FSP shall be effective upon issuance, including prior periods for which financial statements have not been issued. Revisions resulting from a change in the valuation technique or its application shall be accounted for as a change in accounting estimate (FAS Statement No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections). The disclosure provisions of Statement 154 for a change in accounting estimate are not required for revisions resulting from a change in valuation technique or its application.  The adoption of this

Note 3. Per Share Data

 

The following table sets forth the composition of the weighted average common shares (denominator) used in the basic and dilutive per share computation.  There are no convertible securities which would affect the numerator in calculating basic and diluted earnings per share; therefore, net income as presented on the consolidated statement of income will be used as the numerator.

Employer Contributions

 

The Company previously disclosed in its consolidated financial statements, included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007, that it expected to contribute $450,000 to its defined benefit plan in 2008.  As of September 30, 2008, a contribution in the amount of $500,000 was made for the 2007 plan year with no additional contributions anticipated during 2008.

 

Note 5.  Off Balance Sheet Risk

 

The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers.  These financial instruments are primarily comprised of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit.  These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit, interest rate, or liquidity risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheet.  The contract amounts of these instruments express the extent of involvement the Company has in particular classes of financial instruments.

 

The Company’s exposure to credit loss from nonperformance by the other party to the financial instruments for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of these instruments.  The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.  The Company may require collateral or other security to support financial instruments with off-balance sheet credit risk.

 

Outstanding financial instruments with off balance sheet risk are as follows:

Note 6.  Reclassification of Comparative Amounts

 

Certain comparative amounts for the prior period have been reclassified to conform to current period presentations. Such reclassifications had no effect on net income or shareholders’ equity.

 

Note 7.  Employee Stock Purchase Plan

 

The Company issues shares under the Penns Woods Bancorp, Inc. 2006 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“Plan”) which is intended to encourage employee participation in the ownership and economic progress of the Company.  The Plan allows for up to 1,000,000 shares to be purchased by employees.  The purchase price of the shares is 95% of market value with an employee eligible to purchase up to the lesser of 15% of base compensation or $12,000 in market value annually.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, there were 2,282 and 2,240 shares issued under the plan, respectively.

 

Note 8.  Fair Value Measurements

 

Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted FAS 157, which, among other things, requires enhanced disclosures about assets and liabilities carried at fair value. FAS 157 establishes a hierarchal disclosure framework associated with the level of pricing observability utilized in measuring assets and liabilities at fair value. The three broad levels defined by FAS 157 hierarchy are as follows:

 

Level I:

 

Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date.

 

 

 

Level II:

 

Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. The nature of these assets and liabilities include items for which quoted prices are available but traded less frequently, and items that are fair valued using other financial instruments, the parameters of which can be directly observed.

 

 

 

Level III:

 

Assets and liabilities that have little to no pricing observability as of the reported date. These items do not have two-way markets and are measured using management’s best estimate of fair value, where the inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation.

 

The following table presents the assets and liabilities reported on the consolidated statements of financial condition at their fair value as of September 30, 2008 by level within the fair value hierarchy. As required by FAS 157, financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR PURPOSES OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995

 

This Report contains certain “forward-looking statements” including statements concerning plans, objectives, future events or performance and assumptions and other statements which are other than statements of historical fact.  The Company wishes to caution readers that the following important factors, among others, may have affected and could in the future affect the Company’s actual results and could cause the Company’s actual results for subsequent periods to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statement made by or on behalf of the Company herein:  (i) the effect of changes in laws and regulations, including federal and state banking laws and regulations, with which the Company must comply, and the associated costs of compliance with such laws and regulations either currently or in the future as applicable; (ii) the effect of changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted by the regulatory agencies as well as by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or of changes in the Company’s organization, compensation and benefit plans; (iii) the effect on the Company’s competitive position within its market area of the  increasing consolidation within the banking and financial services industries, including the increased competition from larger regional and out-of-state banking organizations as well as non-bank providers of various financial services; (iv) the effect of changes in interest rates; and (v) the effect of changes in the business cycle and downturns in the local, regional or national economies.

 

You should not put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements.  These statements speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, even if subsequently made available by the Company on its website or otherwise.  The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise these statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Item 2.   Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation

 

EARNINGS SUMMARY

 

Comparison of the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2008 and 2007

 

Summary Results

 

Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2008 was $1,552,000 compared to $2,322,000 for the same period of 2007 as after-tax securities gains decreased $993,000 (from $0 to a loss of $993,000).  Included within the change in after-tax securities gains was an other than temporary impairment charge relating to certain equity securities held in the investment portfolio of $1,222,000. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2008 were $0.40 compared to $0.60 for the three months ended September 30, 2007.  Return on average assets and return on average equity were 0.98% and 9.43% for the three months ended September 30, 2008 compared to 1.57% and 13.21% for the corresponding period of 2007.  Net income from core operations (“operating earnings”) increased 9.6% to $2,545,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2008 compared to $2,322,000 for the same period of 2007.  Operating earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2008 increased 10.0% to $0.66 basic and dilutive compared to $0.60 basic and dilutive for the three months ended September 30, 2007.

 

The nine months ended September 30, 2008 generated net income of $5,740,000 compared to $6,938,000 for the same period of 2007 due to a decline in after-tax securities gains of $1,542,000 (from a gain of $409,000 to a loss of $1,133,000). Included within the change in after-tax securities gains was an other than temporary impairment charge relating to certain equity securities held in the investment portfolio of $1,601,000. Earnings per share, basic and dilutive, for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 were $1.49 as compared to $1.78 for the comparable period of 2007.  Return on average assets and return on average equity were 1.21% and 11.10% for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 compared to 1.57% and 12.63% for the corresponding period of 2007.  Operating earnings increased 5.3% to $6,873,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 compared to $6,529,000 for the comparable period of 2007 resulting in basic and dilutive operating earnings per share of $1.78 and $1.68 for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

 

(Management uses the non-GAAP measure of net income from core operations in its analysis of the Company’s performance.  This measure, as used by the Company, adjusts net income by significant gains or losses that are unusual in nature.  Because certain of these items and their impact on the Company’s performance are difficult to predict, management believes the presentation of financial measures excluding the impact of such items provides useful supplemental information in evaluating the operating results of the Company’s core businesses.  For purposes of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, net income from core operations means net income adjusted to exclude after-tax net securities gains or losses.  These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for net income determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they

necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies.)

 

Interest And Dividend Income

 

Interest and dividend income for the three months ended September 30, 2008 increased $131,000 to $9,108,000 compared to $8,977,000 for the same period of 2007.  The increase in interest income was primarily the result of growth in average taxable investment securities of $15,963,000 coupled with a 48 basis point (“bp”) increase in the related securities yields for the three months ended September 30, 2008 over the same period of 2007.  This combination resulted in a $345,000 increase in taxable investment securities interest income. Over the same time frame, the average balance of tax-exempt investment securities increased $8,048,000 with the portfolio yield remaining stable at 7.06% resulting in a $97,000 increase in tax-exempt interest income.  On a taxable equivalent basis, the interest income from the investment portfolio increased $492,000 due to the portfolio composition and increase in taxable investment security balance and yield.  The decrease in dividends received is the result of a decrease in equity investments coupled with a general decline in the dividends per share received from the equity holdings.  Interest and fee income from the loan portfolio decreased $310,000 as the rate reduction actions of the Federal Reserve Board’s Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) served as the foundation for the 54 bp decline in loan portfolio yield.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2008, interest and dividend income was $27,092,000, an increase of $643,000 over the same period of 2007.  The reasons for the 2.4% growth in interest income for the nine month period are identical to those for the three month period ending September 30, 2008 discussed above.  The growth in average loans of $6,972,000 coupled with a 37 bp decrease in the loan portfolio yield due to the decreasing prime rate resulted in a decrease of $624,000 in loan interest and fee income.   Average investment securities and interest bearing deposit income increased $1,267,000 due to an increase in average balance of $27,636,000 and a 12 bp increase in yield.  The increase in yield was due to an increase in yield on taxable and tax-exempt securities of 16 bp and 12 bp, respectively.  The increased yield was primarily the result of approximately $30,000,000 in bonds that were added during the last half of 2007 as part of a leverage strategy.  The asset allocation between loans and the investment portfolio composition resulted in taxable equivalent interest income increasing $849,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 compared to the same period of 2007.

Interest Expense

 

Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2008 decreased $517,000 to $3,595,000 compared to $4,112,000 for the same period of 2007.  The decreased expense of $425,000 associated with deposits is primarily the result of a reduction in rate paid of 106 bp on time deposits.  Factors that led to the rate decreases include, but are not limited to, FOMC interest rate actions over the past year, campaigns conducted to attract 8 to 12 month maturity CDs that have resulted in an increased repricing frequency, and decreased average utilization of $10,038,000 in brokered CDs.  Short-term borrowings interest expense decreased $58,000 as the increase in average balance of $18,305,000 was countered by a decrease in the rate paid of 206 bp due to the FOMC rate actions over the past year.  Long-term borrowings interest expense decreased $34,000 as the average balance of such borrowings increased $1,270,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2008 compared to the same period of 2007, while the average rate decreased 31 bp to 4.33% for the 2008 period.  The change in average balance and rate is reflective of $29,600,000 in long-term borrowing maturities during the first half of 2008 at an average rate of 4.77% offset by the acquisition of $10,000,000 in long-term borrowings at a rate of 3.18% during the third quarter of 2008.

 

Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 decreased $508,000 to $11,542,000 compared to $12,050,000 for the same period of 2007.  Interest on deposits decreased $713,000 due to the reasons noted in the three month analysis discussed in the proceeding paragraph.  Borrowing costs increased primarily due to the addition of borrowings during the latter portion of 2007 as part of a program to increase net interest income through the purchase of fixed rate investment securities.

Net Interest Margin

 

The net interest margin (“NIM”) for the three months ended September 30, 2008 was 4.23% compared to 3.98% for the corresponding period of 2007.  The increase in the NIM was driven by a 74 bp decline in the rate paid on interest bearing liabilities that more than compensated for a 29 bp decline in the yield on earning assets.  The decrease in earning asset yield is due to the impact on the loan portfolio of the FOMC rate decreases over the past year offset in part by increases in yield and balance within the investment portfolio.  The growth in the investment portfolio was driven by a strategic initiative in the third quarter of 2007 to increase tax equivalent net interest income by purchasing fixed rate instruments in anticipation of the decreasing rate environment that has continued to date.  The decrease in the cost of interest bearing liabilities to 2.93% from 3.67% was driven primarily by a reduction in the rate paid on time deposits of 106 bp.  The reduction was the result of a shortening of the time deposit portfolio initiated in the early stages of 2007 that has resulted in an increasing repricing frequency during this period of decreasing rates.

 

The NIM for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 were 4.04% and 3.96%, respectively.  The impact of the items mentioned in the three month discussion also applies to the nine month period.  A 65 bp decline in the rate paid on time deposits served as the foundation for a 41 bp decline in rate paid on deposits, while the FOMC actions steered the yield on earning assets and cost of borrowings.
