NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Principles of Consolidation:
Farmers National Banc Corp. (“Company”) is a Financial Holding Company registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. The Company provides full banking services through its nationally chartered subsidiary, The Farmers National Bank of Canfield (“Bank”). The consolidated financial statements also include the accounts of the Bank’s subsidiaries; Farmers National Insurance, LLC (“Insurance”) and Farmers of Canfield Investment Co. (“Investments”). The Company provides trust and retirement consulting services through its subsidiary, Farmers Trust Company (“Trust”), and insurance services through the Bank’s subsidiary, Insurance. Farmers National Captive, Inc. (“Captive”) is a wholly-owned insurance subsidiary of the Company that provides property and casualty insurance coverage to the Company and its subsidiaries. The Captive pools resources with eleven other similar insurance company subsidiaries of financial institutions to spread a limited amount of risk among the pool members and to provide insurance where not currently available or economically feasible in today’s insurance market place. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the Bank and its subsidiaries, along with the Trust and Captive. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation.
Corporate Reorganization:
On July 1, 2019, Trust acquired all shares of National Associates, Inc. (“NAI”) from the Company through a corporate reorganization. The Company was the sole shareholder of Trust and NAI before the reorganization. The entities were combined into one reporting unit and one operating segment and began reporting as one unit, for both internal and external reports, during the third quarter of 2019. The combination is part of the Company’s plan to increase efficiencies within the different business lines.
Basis of Presentation:
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2019 Annual Report to Shareholders included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. The interim consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring items) that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods disclosed herein are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year. Certain items included in the prior period financial statements were reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. There was no effect on net income or total stockholders’ equity.
Estimates:
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, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Segments:
The Company provides a broad range of financial services to individuals and companies in northeastern Ohio and western Pennsylvania. Operations are managed and financial performance is primarily aggregated and reported in two lines of business, the Bank segment and the Trust segment. During the third quarter of 2019 the Company merged the Retirement Consulting segment into the Trust segment. In prior periods segment reporting was reported in three segments.
Equity:
There are 50,000,000 shares authorized and available for issuance as of March 31, 2020. Outstanding shares at March 31, 2020 were 28,127,335.
Comprehensive Income:
Comprehensive income consists of net income and other comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income consists of unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale which are recognized as components of stockholders’ equity, net of tax effect.

Risks and Uncertainties:
The outbreak of COVID-19 has adversely impacted a broad range of industries in which the Company’s customers operate and could impair their ability to fulfill their financial obligations to the Company. The World Health Organization has declared COVID-19 to be a global pandemic indicating that almost all public commerce and related business activities must be, to varying degrees, curtailed with the goal of decreasing the rate of new infections. The spread of the outbreak has caused significant disruptions in the economy and has disrupted banking and other financial activity in the areas in which the Company operates. While there has been no material impact to the Company’s employees to date, COVID-19 could also potentially create widespread business continuity issues for the Company.
Congress, the President, and the Federal Reserve have taken several actions designed to cushion the economic fallout. Most notably, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES”) was signed into law at the end of March 2020 as a $2 trillion legislative package. The goal of the CARES Act is to prevent a severe economic downturn through various measures, including direct financial aid to American families and economic stimulus to significantly impacted industry sectors. The package also includes extensive emergency funding for hospitals and providers. In addition to the general impact of COVID-19, certain provisions of the CARES Act as well as other recent legislative and regulatory relief efforts are expected to have a material impact on the Company’s operations.
The Company’s business is dependent upon the willingness and ability of its employees and customers to conduct banking and other financial transactions. If the global response to contain COVID-19 escalates further or is unsuccessful, the Company could experience a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. While it is not possible to know the full universe or extent that the impact of COVID-19, and resulting measures to curtail its spread, will have on the Company’s operations, the Company will disclose potentially material items of which it is aware.
Financial position and results of operations:
The Company’s fee income could be reduced due to COVID-19. In keeping with guidance from regulators, the Company is actively working with COVID-19 affected customers to waive fees from a variety of sources, such as, but not limited to, insufficient funds and overdraft fees, ATM fees, account maintenance fees, etc. These reductions in fees are thought, at this time, to be temporary in conjunction with the length of the expected COVID-19 related economic crisis. At this time, the Company is unable to project the materiality of such an impact, but recognize the breadth of the economic impact is likely to impact its fee income in future periods.
The Company’s interest income could be reduced due to COVID-19. In keeping with guidance from regulators, the Company is actively working with COVID-19 affected borrowers to defer their payments. While interest and fees will still accrue to income, through normal GAAP accounting, should eventual credit losses on these deferred payments emerge, interest income and fees accrued would need to be reversed. In such a scenario, interest income in future periods could be negatively impacted. At this time, the Company is unable to project the materiality of such an impact, but recognizes the breadth of the economic impact may affect its borrowers’ ability to repay in future periods.
Capital and liquidity:
While the Company believes that it has sufficient capital to withstand an extended economic recession brought about by COVID-19, its reported and regulatory capital ratios could be adversely impacted by further credit losses. The Company relies on cash on hand as well as dividends from its subsidiaries. If the Company’s capital deteriorates such that its subsidiary bank is unable to pay dividends to it for an extended period of time, the Company may not be able to pay dividends to shareholders.
8
The Company maintains access to multiple sources of liquidity. Wholesale funding markets have remained open, but rates for short term funding have recently been volatile. If funding costs are elevated for an extended period of time, it could have an adverse effect on the Company’s net interest margin. If an extended recession caused large numbers of the Company’s deposit customers to withdraw their funds, the Company might become more reliant on volatile or more expensive sources of funding.
New Accounting Standards:
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. This ASU eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Instead, under the new guidance, an entity is to perform its annual goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge would be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. The new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim reporting periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company adopted this ASU on January 1, 2020. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13: Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (modified by ASU 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments Credit Losses). The ASU requires an organization to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Financial institutions and other organizations will now use forward-looking information to better inform their credit loss estimates. Many of the loss estimation techniques applied today will still be permitted, although the inputs to those techniques changed to reflect the full amount of expected credit losses. Organizations will continue to use judgment to determine which loss estimation method is appropriate for their circumstances. Additionally, the ASU amends the accounting for credit losses on available for sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. ASU 2016-13 is effective for public companies for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Entities will apply the standard’s provisions as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is adopted.
In accordance with the accounting relief provisions of the CARES, the Bank has postponed the adoption of the current expected credit losses (“CECL”) accounting standards, primarily due to the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic is having on the economy and the lack of reasonable and supportable economic forecasts. Had the Company adopted CECL as of January 1, 2020, the increase to the allowance for loan losses estimated to have ranged from 15% to 20% of the amount recorded at December 31, 2019, which did not consider potential COVID-19 pandemic related impacts.
In February 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-02 (Topic 842): Leases. The main objective of ASU 2016-02 is to provide users with useful, transparent, and complete information about leasing transactions. ASU 2016-02 requires the rights and obligations associated with leasing arrangements be reflected on the balance sheet in order to increase transparency and comparability among organizations. Under the updated guidance, lessees are required to recognize a right-to-use asset and a liability to make a lease payment and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 is effective for public companies for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this ASU on January 1, 2019. As disclosed in the lease footnote, certain leases that the Company has in place required the capitalization of $3.6 million on the balance sheet as an asset and a related liability in the same amount with no income statement effect at January 1, 2019.
9
In January 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-01: Financial Instruments-Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The main objective of ASU 2016-01 is to enhance the reporting model for financial instruments to provide users of financial statements with more decision-useful information. ASU 2016-01 addresses certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. Some of the amendments in ASU 2016-01 include the following: 1) Require equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting or those that result in consolidation of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income; 2) Simplify the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values by requiring a qualitative assessment to identify impairment; 3) Require public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes; and 4) Require an entity to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk when the entity has elected to measure the liability at fair value; among others. The amendments of ASU 2016-01 were effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted this ASU 2016-01 on January 1, 2018 which resulted in a $169 thousand increase to beginning retained earnings and a $169 thousand decrease to accumulated other comprehensive income on the December 31, 2018 Consolidated Financial Statements.
Business Combinations:
On January 7, 2020, the Company completed the acquisition of Maple Leaf Financial, Inc. (“Maple Leaf”), the parent company of Geauga Savings Bank, with branches located in Cuyahoga and Geauga Counties in Ohio. The Company expects the acquisition to increase synergies and cost savings resulting from the combining of the two companies. The transaction involved both cash and 1,398,229 shares of stock totaling $43.0 million. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, common shareholders of Maple Leaf had the right to receive $640.00 in cash or 45.5948 common shares, without par value, of the Company. Holders of outstanding and unexercised warrants to purchase Maple Leaf Common Shares received an amount in cash equal to the excess of $640.00 over $370.00, the exercise price of such warrants.
Goodwill of $9.2 million, which is recorded on the balance sheet, arising from the acquisition consisted largely of synergies and the cost savings resulting from the combining of the entities. The goodwill was determined not to be deductible for income tax purposes.
The following table summarizes the consideration paid for Maple Leaf and the amounts of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the closing date of the acquisition.

Other-Than-Temporary-Impairment
Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such an evaluation. Investment securities are generally evaluated for OTTI under ASC Topic 320: Investments - Debt Securities. Consideration is given to the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, whether the market decline was affected by macroeconomic conditions and whether the Company has the intent to sell the debt security or more likely than not will be required to sell the debt security before its anticipated recovery. In analyzing an issuer’s financial condition, the Company may consider whether the securities are issued by the federal government or its agencies, or U.S. government sponsored enterprises, whether downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred, and the results of reviews of the issuer’s financial condition. The assessment of whether an other-than-temporary decline exists involves a high degree of subjectivity and judgment, and is based on the information available to management at a point in time.
12
Due to market changes during the first quarter of 2020, securities that had unrealized losses for greater than twelve months at December 31, 2019, appreciated and are in an unrealized gain position at March 31, 2020. Unrealized losses are generally due to changes in interest rates or general market conditions. As of March 31, 2020 and 2019, debt securities had net unrealized losses of $35 thousand and unrealized gains of $769 thousand, respectively. In analyzing an issuer’s financial condition, management considers whether the securities are issued by the federal government or its agencies, whether downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred, and industry analysts’ reports. Management concluded that the unrealized losses on debt securities were temporary. Due to potential changes in conditions, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in fair values and management’s assessments will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect the amounts reported in the Company’s financial statements.
As of March 31, 2020, the Company’s security portfolio consisted of 617 securities, 303 of which were in an unrealized loss position. The majority of the unrealized losses on the Company’s securities are related to its holdings of state and political subdivisions, collateralized mortgage obligations, and corporate bonds securities as discussed below.
Unrealized losses on debt securities issued by state and political subdivisions have not been recognized into income. These securities have maintained their investment grade ratings and management does not have the intent and does not expect to be required to sell these securities before their anticipated recovery. The fair value is expected to recover as the securities approach their maturity date.
All of the Company’s holdings of collateralized mortgage obligations and residential mortgage-backed securities were issued by U.S. government-sponsored entities. Unrealized losses on these securities have not been recognized into income. Because the decline in fair value is attributable to changes in interest rates and illiquidity, and not credit quality, the issues are guaranteed by the issuing entity which the U.S. government has affirmed its commitment to support, and because the Company does not have the intent to sell these residential mortgage-backed securities and it is likely that it will not be required to sell the securities before their anticipated recovery, the Company does not consider these securities to be OTTI.

The key assumptions considered include probability of default and the amount of actual prepayments after the acquisition date. Prepayments affect the estimated life of the loans and could change the amount of interest income and principal expected to be collected. In reforecasting future estimated cash flows, credit loss expectations are adjusted as necessary. There were no adjustments to forecasted cash flows that impacted the allowance for loan losses for the three month periods ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.
The following tables present the activity in the allowance for loan losses by portfolio segment for the three month periods ended March 31, 2020 and 2019:

Troubled Debt Restructurings:
Total troubled debt restructurings were $4.7 million and $4.6 million at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The Company has allocated $61 thousand of specific reserves to loans whose terms have been modified in troubled debt restructurings at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. There were no commitments to lend additional amounts to borrowers with loans that were classified as troubled debt restructurings at March 31, 2020 and at December 31, 2019.
During the three month periods ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the terms of certain loans were modified as troubled debt restructurings. The modification of the terms of such loans included one or a combination of the following: a reduction of the stated interest rate of the loan; an extension of the maturity date at a stated rate of interest lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk; a deferral of principal, interest and/or escrow; or a legal concession. During the three month period ended March 31, 2020, the terms of such loans included a deferral of principal and/or interest and an extension of the maturity date on these and other troubled debt restructurings in the range of 168 to 180 months. During the same three month period in 2019, the terms of such loans included a reduction of the stated interest rate of loans in the range of 2.38% to 2.74% and an extension of the maturity date on these and other troubled debt restructurings by 86 months.

The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. The Company establishes a risk rating at origination for all commercial loan and commercial real estate relationships. For relationships over $750 thousand, management monitors the loans on an ongoing basis for any changes in the borrower’s ability to service their debt. Management also affirms the risk ratings for the loans in their respective portfolios on an annual basis. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:
Special Mention. Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the institution’s credit position at some future date. Special mention assets are not adversely classified and do not expose an institution to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification.
Substandard. Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. Substandard loans are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
Doubtful. Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.
Loans not meeting the criteria above that are analyzed individually as part of the above described process are considered to be pass rated loans.
As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and based on the most recent analysis performed, the risk category of loans by class of loans is as follows:

The Company considers the performance of the loan portfolio and its impact on the allowance for loan losses. For residential, consumer indirect and direct loan classes, the Company evaluates credit quality based on the aging status of the loan, which was previously presented, and by payment activity. In the 1-4 family residential real estate portfolio at March 31, 2020, other real estate owned and foreclosure properties were $131 thousand and $231 thousand, respectively. At December 31, 2019 other real estate owned and foreclosure properties were $19 thousand and $316 thousand, respectively.
The following tables present the recorded investment in residential, consumer indirect and direct auto loans based on payment activity as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. Nonperforming loans are loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest and nonaccrual loans.

A description of the Company’s revenue streams under ASC 606 follows:
Service charges on deposit accounts – The Company earns fees from its deposit customers for transaction-based, account maintenance, and overdraft services. Management reviewed the deposit account agreements, and determined that the agreements can be terminated at any time by either the Bank or the account holder. Transaction fees, such as balance transfers, wires and overdraft charges are settled the day the performance obligation is satisfied. The Bank’s monthly service charges and maintenance fees are for services provided to the customer on a monthly basis are considered a series of services that have the same pattern of transfer each month. The review of service charges assessed on deposit accounts, included the amount of variable consideration that is a part of the monthly charges. It was found that the waiver of service charges due to insufficient funds and dormant account fees is immaterial and would not require a change in the accounting treatment for these fees under the new revenue standards.
26
Debit Card Interchange Fees – Customers and the Bank have an account agreement and maintain deposit balances with the Bank. Customers use a bank issued debit card to purchase goods and services, and the Bank earns interchange fees on those transactions, typically a percentage of the sale amount of the transaction. The Bank records the amount due when it receives the settlement from the payment network. Payments from the payment network are received and recorded into income on a daily basis. There are no contingent debit card interchange fees recorded by the Company that could be subject to a clawback in future periods.
Trust fees – Services provided to Trust customers are a series of distinct services that have the same pattern of transfer each month. Fees for trust accounts are billed and drafted from trust accounts monthly. The Company records these fees on the income statement on a monthly basis. Fees are assessed based on the total investable assets of the customer’s trust account. A signed contract between the Company and the customer is maintained for all customer trust accounts with payment terms identified. It is probable that the fees will be collectible as funds being managed are accessible by the asset manager. Past history of trust fee income recorded by the Company indicates that it is highly unlikely that a significant reversal could occur. There are no contingent incentive fees recorded by the Company that could be subject to a clawback in future periods.
Insurance Agency Commissions – Insurance agency commissions are received from insurance carriers for the agency’s share of commissions from customer premium payments. These commissions are recorded into income when checks are received from the insurance carriers, and there is no contingent portion associated with these commission checks. There may be a short time-lag in recording revenue when cash is received instead of recording the revenue when the policy is signed by the customer, but the time lag is insignificant and does not impact the revenue recognition process.
Insurance also receives incentive checks from the insurance carriers for achieving specified levels of production with particular carriers. These amounts are recorded into income when a check is received, and there are no contingent amounts associated with these payments that may be clawed back by the carrier in the future. Similar to the monthly commissions explained in the preceding paragraph, there may be a short time-lag in recording incentive revenue on a cash basis as opposed to estimating the amount of incentive revenue expected to be earned, this does not materially impact the recognition of Insurance revenue. If there were any amounts that would need to be refunded for one specific Insurance customer, management believes the reversal would not be significant.
Other potential situations surrounding the recognition of Insurance revenue include the estimating potential refunds due to the likely cancellation of a percentage of customers cancelling their policies and recording revenue at the time of policy renewals. Management concluded that since Insurance agency commissions represent only 2.5% of the Company’s total revenue, adjusting the current practice of recording insurance revenue for these situations would not have a material impact on the reporting of total revenue.
Retirement Plan Consulting Fees – Revenue is recognized based on the level of work performed for the client. Any payments that are received for work to be performed in the future are recorded in a deferred revenue account, and recorded into income when the fees are earned. Retirement plan consulting fees represent only 1.1% of the Company’s total revenue, and therefore management has concluded that any adjustment of revenue for one particular customer for a refund or any other reason would be insignificant and would not materially impact the Company’s total revenue.
Investment Commissions – Investment commissions are earned through the sales of non-deposit investment products to customers of the Company. The sales are conducted through a third-party broker-dealer. When the commissions are received and recorded into income on the Bank’s income statement, there is no contingent portion that may need to be refunded back to Cetera. Investment commissions represent only 1.2% of the Company’s total revenue, and therefore management has concluded that any adjustment of revenue for a particular customer for a refund or any other reason would be insignificant and would not materially impact the Company’s total revenue.
Other – Income items included in “Other” are Bank owned life insurance income, security gains, net gains on the sale of loans and other operating income. Any amounts within the scope of ASC 606 are deemed immaterial.

Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair values:
Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.
Level 2 – Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.
The Company used the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate the fair value of each type of financial instrument:
Investment Securities: The Company uses a third party service to estimate fair value on available for sale securities on a monthly basis. The Company’s service provider is considered a leading evaluation pricing service for U.S. domestic fixed income securities and complies fully with ASU 2016-01’s exit pricing requirements. They subscribe to multiple third-party pricing vendors, and supplement that information with matrix pricing methods. The fair values for investment securities, which consist of equity securities that are recorded at fair market value to comply with ASU 2016-01, are determined by quoted market prices in active markets, if available (Level 1). The equity securities change in fair market value is recorded in the income statements. For securities where quoted prices are not available, fair values are calculated based on quoted prices for similar assets in active markets, quoted prices for similar assets in markets that are not active or inputs other than quoted prices, which provide a reasonable basis for fair value determination. Such inputs may include interest rates and yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, credit risks and default rates. Inputs used are derived principally from observable market data (Level 2). For securities where quoted prices or market prices of similar securities are not available, fair values are calculated using discounted cash flows or other market indicators (Level 3). The fair values of Level 3 investment securities are determined by using unobservable inputs to measure fair value of assets for which there is little, if any market activity at the measurement date, using reasonable inputs and assumptions based on the best information at the time, to the extent that inputs are available without undue cost and effort. For the period ended March 31, 2020 and for the year ended December 31, 2019, the fair value of Level 3 investment securities was immaterial.
Derivative Instruments: The fair values of derivative instruments are based on valuation models using observable market data as of the measurement date (Level 2).
Impaired Loans: At the time loans are considered impaired, collateral dependent impaired loans are valued at the lower of cost or fair value and non-collateral dependent loans are valued based on discounted cash flows. Impaired loans carried at fair value generally receive specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses. For collateral dependent loans fair value is commonly based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Non-real estate collateral may be valued using an appraisal, net book value per the borrower’s financial statements, or aging reports, adjusted or discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of the valuation, and management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and client’s business, resulting in a Level 3 fair value classification. Impaired loans are evaluated on a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly.
Other Real Estate Owned: Assets acquired through or instead of loan foreclosure are initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell when acquired, establishing a new cost basis. These assets are subsequently accounted for at lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell. Fair values are commonly based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may use a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.
28
Appraisals for both collateral-dependent impaired loans and other real estate owned are performed by certified general appraisers (for commercial and commercial real estate properties) or certified residential appraisers (for residential properties) whose qualifications and licenses have been reviewed and verified by the Company. Once received, a member of the Appraisal Department reviews the assumptions and approaches utilized in the appraisal as well as the overall resulting fair value in comparison with independent data sources such as recent market data or industry-wide statistics. On an annual basis, the Company compares the actual selling price of collateral that has been sold to the most recent appraised value to determine what adjustments should be made to appraisals to arrive at fair value.
Assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below:
There were no significant transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during the three month period ended March 31, 2020 and 2019. For additional information related to yield maintenance provisions and interest rate swaps see Interest – Rate Swaps note.

Assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis are summarized below:
Impaired loans that are measured for impairment using the fair value of the collateral for collateral dependent loans, had a principal balance of $297 thousand with a valuation allowance of $18 thousand at March 31, 2020, resulting in an additional provision for loan losses of $5 thousand for the three month period ending March 31, 2020. At December 31, 2019, impaired loans had a principal balance of $208 thousand, with a valuation allowance of $13 thousand. Loans measured at fair value resulted in an additional provision for loan losses of $223 thousand for the three month period ending March 31, 2019. Excluded from the fair value of impaired loans, at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, discussed above are $575 thousand and $583 thousand of loans classified as troubled debt restructurings and measured using the present value of cash flows, which is not considered an exit price.
Impaired commercial real estate loans, both owner-occupied and non-owner occupied are valued by independent external appraisals. These external appraisals are prepared using the sales comparison approach and income approach valuation techniques. Management makes subsequent unobservable adjustments to the impaired loan appraisals. Impaired loans other than commercial real estate and other real estate owned are not considered material.

The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of financial instruments not previously disclosed at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 are as follows:
31
The methods and assumptions used to estimate fair value, not previously described, are described as follows:
Cash and Cash Equivalents: The carrying amounts of cash and short-term instruments approximate fair values and are classified as either Level 1 or Level 2. The Company has determined that cash on hand and non-interest bearing due from bank accounts are Level 1 whereas interest bearing federal funds sold and other are Level 2.
Restricted Stock: It is not practical to determine the fair value of restricted stock due to restrictions placed on its transferability.
Loans: Fair values of loans, excluding loans held for sale, are estimated as follows: The Company uses a third party firm that uses cash flow analysis and current market interest rates along with adjustments for credit, liquidity and option risk to conform to the ASU 2016-01 exit price requirement. Loans in the tables above consist of impaired credits held for investment. In accordance with the loan impairment guidance, impairment was measured based on the fair value of collateral less estimated selling costs for collateral dependent loans or the cash flow method for noncollateral dependent loans. Fair value for collateral dependent impaired loans is based upon appraised values adjusted for trends observed in the market. A valuation allowance was recorded for the excess of the loan’s recorded investment over the amounts determined by the collateral value method. This valuation is a component of the allowance for loan losses. The Company considers these fair values level 3.
Loans held for sale: The fair value of loans held for sale is estimated based upon binding contracts and quotes from third party investors resulting in a Level 2 classification.
Accrued Interest Receivable/Payable: The carrying amounts of accrued interest receivable and payable approximate fair value resulting in a Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 classification. The classification is the result of the association with securities, loans and deposits.
Deposits: The fair values disclosed for demand deposits – interest and non-interest checking, passbook savings, and money market accounts – are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date resulting in a Level 1 classification. The carrying amounts of variable rate certificates of deposit approximate their fair values at the reporting date resulting in a Level 2 classification. Fair value for fixed rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flows calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits resulting in a Level 2 classification.
Short-term Borrowings: The carrying amounts of federal funds purchased, borrowings under repurchase agreements, and other short-term borrowings, generally maturing within ninety days, approximate their fair values resulting in a Level 2 classification.
Long-term Borrowings: The fair values of the Company’s long-term borrowings are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on the current borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements resulting in a Level 2 classification.
Off-balance Sheet Instruments: The fair value of commitments is not considered material.
32
Goodwill and Intangible Assets:
Goodwill associated with the Company’s purchase of Maple Leaf in January 2020 and other past acquisitions totaled $47.4 million and $38.2 million at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. Impairment exists when a reporting unit’s carrying value of goodwill exceeds its fair value, which is determined through a two-step impairment test. Management performs goodwill impairment testing on an annual basis as of September 30 or when a triggering event occurs. The fair value of the reporting unit is determined based on a discounted cash flow model.

Interest-Rate Swaps:
The Company uses a program that utilizes interest-rate swaps as part of its asset/liability management strategy. The interest-rate swaps are used to help manage the Company’s interest rate risk position and not as derivatives for trading purposes. The notional amount of the interest-rate swaps does not represent amounts exchanged by the parties. The amount exchanged is determined by reference to the notional amount and the other terms of the individual interest-rate swap agreements.
The objective of the interest-rate swaps is to protect the related fixed rate commercial real estate loans from changes in fair value due to changes in interest rates. The Company has a program whereby it lends to its borrowers at a fixed rate with the loan agreement containing a two-way yield maintenance provision, which will be invoked in the event of prepayment of the loan, and is expected to exactly offset the fair value of unwinding the swap. The yield maintenance provision represents an embedded derivative which is bifurcated from the host loan contract and, as such, the swaps and embedded derivatives are not designated as hedges. Accordingly, both instruments are carried at fair value and changes in fair value are reported in current period earnings.
Summary information about these interest-rate swaps at periods ended March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 is as follows:

There were no restricted stock awards that were considered anti-dilutive for the three month periods ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.
Stock Based Compensation:
During 2017, the Company, with the approval of shareholders, created the 2017 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2017 Plan”). The 2017 Plan permits the award of up to 800 thousand shares to the Company’s directors and employees to attract and retain exceptional personnel, motivate performance and most importantly to help align the interests of the Company’s executives with those of the Company’s shareholders. There were 19,045 service time based share awards and 50,187 performance based share awards granted under the 2017 Plan during the three month period ended March 31, 2020, as shown in the table below. The actual number of performance based shares issued will depend on the relative performance of the Company’s average return on equity compared to a group of peer companies over a three year vesting period, ending December 31, 2022. As of March 31, 2020, 406,315 shares are still available to be awarded from the 2017 Plan.
The restricted stock awards were granted with a fair value price equal to the market price of the Company’s common stock at the date of the grant. Expense recognized was $337 thousand for the three month period ended March 31, 2020. Expense recognized was $320 thousand for the three month period ended March 31, 2019. As of March 31, 2020, there was $2.3 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to the nonvested shares granted under the 2017 Plan. The remaining cost is expected to be recognized over 2.9 years.
The following is the activity under the Plans during the three month period ended March 31, 2020.

Regulatory Capital Matters:
Banks and bank holding companies are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Capital adequacy guidelines and, additionally for banks, prompt corrective action regulations, involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The new minimum capital requirements associated with the Basel Committee on capital and liquidity regulation (Basel III) were phased in between January 1, 2016 and January 1, 2019. Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators. Failure to meet capital requirements can initiate regulatory action by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the financial statements. Management believes that as of March 31, 2020, the Company and the Bank meet all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.
The FDIC and other federal banking regulators revised the risk-based capital requirements applicable to financial holding companies and insured depository institutions, including the Company and the Bank, to make them consistent with agreements that were reached by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (“Basel III”).
The common equity tier 1 capital, tier 1 capital and total capital ratios are calculated by dividing the respective capital amounts by risk-weighted assets. The leverage ratio is calculated by dividing tier 1 capital by adjusted average total assets.
Basel III limits capital distributions and certain discretionary bonus payments if the banking organization does not hold a “capital conservation buffer” consisting of 2.5% of common equity tier 1 capital, tier 1 capital and total capital to risk-weighted assets in addition to the amount necessary to meet minimum risk-based capital requirements. The capital conservation buffer phased in beginning January 1, 2016 and increased each year until it was fully implemented at 2.5% on January 1, 2019. The additional capital conservation buffer is 2.5%. Excluding the additional buffer, Basel III requires the Company and the Bank to maintain (i) a minimum ratio of common equity tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 4.5%, (ii) a minimum ratio of tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 6.0%, (iii) a minimum ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 8.0% and (iv) a minimum leverage ratio of at least 4.0%.
36
Prompt corrective action regulations provide five classifications: well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized, and critically undercapitalized, although these terms are not used to represent overall financial condition. If only adequately capitalized, regulatory approval is required to accept brokered deposits. If undercapitalized, capital distributions are limited, as is asset growth and expansion, and capital restoration plans are required.

During 2019, the Company accrued a charge of $505 thousand relating to a pending settlement of a legal contingency.

Item 2. |
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations |
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are not statements of historical fact, but rather statements based on the Company’s current expectations, beliefs and assumptions regarding the future of Farmers’ business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, its intended results and future performance, the economy and other future conditions. Forward-looking statements are preceded by terms such as “will,” “would,” “should,” “could,” “may,” “expect,” “estimate,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan” “project,” or variations of these words, or similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are not a guarantee of future performance and actual future results could differ materially from those contained in forward-looking information. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of our control. Numerous uncertainties, risks, and changes could cause or contribute to Farmers’ actual results, performance, and achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.
Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, without limitation, risks and uncertainties detailed from time to time in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), including without limitation, the risk factors disclosed in Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, as updated in Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Many of these factors are beyond the Company’s ability to control or predict, and readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on those forward-looking statements. The following, which is not intended to be an all-encompassing list, summarizes several factors that could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from those anticipated or expected in any forward-looking statement:
|
• |
general economic conditions in markets where the Company conducts business, which could materially impact credit quality trends; |
|
• |
effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the local, national, and international economy, our organization and employees, and our customers and suppliers and their business operations, financial condition, and including our customers’ ability to repay loans; |
|
• |
disruptions in the mortgage and lending markets and significant or unexpected fluctuations in interest rates related to COVID-19 and governmental responses, including financial stimulus packages; |
|
• |
general business conditions in the banking industry; |
|
• |
the regulatory environment; |
|
• |
general fluctuations in interest rates; |
|
• |
demand for loans in the market areas where the Company conducts business; |
|
• |
rapidly changing technology and evolving banking industry standards; |
|
• |
competitive factors, including increased competition with regional and national financial institutions; |
|
• |
and new service and product offerings by competitors and price pressures. |
Other factors not currently anticipated may also materially and adversely affect the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial position. There can be no assurance that future results will meet expectations. While the Company believes that the forward-looking statements in the presentation are reasonable, you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statement. In addition, these statements speak only as of the date made. The Company does not undertake, and expressly disclaims, any obligation to update or alter any statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, expect as may be required by applicable law.
Overview
The Company’s results of operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 are discussed below. However, the Company’s past results of operations may not reflect its future operating trends. In March 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic began to affect the U.S. economy and has created additional uncertainty for the Company’s business, particularly for the remainder of 2020. Regulatory actions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic have varied across jurisdictions and have included closure of nonessential businesses, affecting customers of the Company, although the Company as a financial institution has been considered an essential business. The duration and extent of these regulatory measures is unknown.

The Company’s net income for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $8.6 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, which compares to $8.4 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2019. Net income excluding acquisition costs (non-GAAP) for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 was $9.7 million or $0.34 per share, compared to $8.4 million or $0.30 per share for the same quarter in 2019. Annualized return on average assets and annualized return on average equity were 1.32% and 11.53%, respectively, for the three month period ending March 31, 2020, compared to 1.45% and 12.71% for the same three month period in 2019. Excluding acquisition costs (non-GAAP), annualized return on average assets and annualized return on equity (non-GAAP) would have been 1.48% and 12.95% respectively, for the quarter ended March 31, 2020. Farmers’ annualized return on average tangible equity (non-GAAP) was 13.81% for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 compared to 14.99% for the same quarter in 2019. Excluding acquisition costs (non-GAAP), annualized return on average tangible equity would have been 15.50% for the quarter ended March 31, 2020.
In response to the rapidly evolving COVID-19 pandemic, the Company focused first on the well-being of its people, customers and communities. Preventative health measures were put in place including elimination of business related travel requirements, mandatory work from home for all employees able to do so, social distancing precautions for all employees in the office and customers visiting branches, and preventative cleaning at offices and branches. The Company also focused on business continuity measures, including forming a COVID-19 task force, monitoring potential business interruptions, making improvements to our remote working technology, and conducting regular discussions with our technology vendors.
Farmers is offering special financial assistance to support customers who are experiencing financial hardships related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Through March 31, 2020, the Company has processed approximately 168 consumer payment deferral requests for a total of $8.3 million, including approximately 41 related to residential mortgages totaling $5.5 million. From a business customer perspective, the Company has processed approximately 170 payment deferral requests totaling $89.1 million. Farmers is also a preferred SBA lender and has dedicated significant additional staff and other resources to help our customers complete and submit their applications and supporting documentation for loans offered under the new Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act, to obtain SBA approval and receive funding as quickly as possible. Through April 24, 2020, the Company has facilitated PPP assistance to 726 business customers totaling approximately $145.6 million.
On January 7, 2020, Farmers announced it completed the merger of Maple Leaf Financial (“Maple Leaf”), the holding company for Geauga Savings Bank, with branches located in Cuyahoga and Geauga Counties in Ohio. The transaction increases Farmers’ market share in Cuyahoga and Geauga Counties and enables Farmers to continue building local scale throughout Northeast Ohio.
Total loans were $1.98 billion at March 31, 2020 compared to $1.81 billion at December 31, 2019, representing an annualized growth rate of 9.1%. The increase in loans is a result of the acquisition of Maple Leaf along with the company’s focus on loan growth utilizing a talented lending and credit team, while adhering to a sound underwriting discipline. The increase in loans has occurred in many of the major loan categories but mainly in the commercial, commercial real estate and residential real estate loan categories. Loans comprise 78.6% of the Bank's first quarter average earning assets at March 31, 2020, down slightly compared to 79.3% for the same period in 2019. The growth in loans has resulted in a 12.2% increase in tax equated loan interest income, including fees, in the first quarter of 2020 compared to the same quarter in 2019.
Even though non-performing assets to total assets increased from 0.33% at March 31, 2019, they remain at a low level, currently at 0.45%. Early stage delinquencies, which are loans 30 - 89 days delinquent were $19.1 million, or 0.96% of total loans, at March 31, 2020. Net charge-offs for the current quarter were $635 thousand, compared to $365 thousand in the same quarter in 2019 and net charge-offs as a percentage of average net loans outstanding is only 0.13% for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, compared to 0.08% in the same quarter in 2019. The amount of loans made to vulnerable industries (Restaurants, Transportation, Arts/Entertainment, Hotels and Oil & Gas) is less than 4.1% of our total loan portfolio,
The net interest margin for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was 3.75%, a 6 basis point decrease from the quarter ended March 31, 2019. In comparing the first quarter of 2020 to the same period in 2019, asset yields decreased 5 basis points, while the cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 1 basis point. Most of the decrease in the asset yields was the result of lower rates earned on tax-exempt securities, declining from 3.93% to 3.90%. Loan yields also dropped one basis point from 5.06% to 5.05%. Although the cost of interest bearing liabilities decreased one basis point, this was offset by the cost of time deposits, which increased from 1.83% to 1.98%, however the 1.98% remains unchanged to the most recent quarter. The net interest margin is impacted by the additional accretion as a result of the discounted loan portfolios acquired in recent mergers, which increased the net interest margin by 6 and 4 basis points for the quarters ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

The Company made progress in its effort to increase noninterest income, which increased 18.3% to $7.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 compared to $6.5 million in the same quarter of 2019. Gains on the sale of mortgage loans increased $695 thousand or 104%, insurance agency commissions grew $80 thousand or 10%, security gains increased $147 thousand or 1,470% and investment commissions increased $163 thousand or 63% in comparing the first quarter of 2020 to the same quarter in 2019.
The Company has remained committed to managing its level of noninterest expenses. Total noninterest expenses for the first quarter of 2020 increased 16.3% to $18.6 million compared to $16.0 million in the same quarter in 2019, primarily as a result of an increase in salaries and employee benefits of $875 thousand or 9.4%, an increase in merger related costs of $1.3 million and a $138 thousand or 158.6% increase in FDIC insurance expense. Annualized noninterest expenses excluding acquisition costs (non-GAAP) measured as a percentage of quarterly average assets decreased from 2.77% in the first quarter of 2019 to 2.63% in the first quarter of 2020.
The efficiency ratio for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 increased to 59.7% compared to 57.8% for the same quarter in 2019. Excluding acquisition costs (non-GAAP) of $1.3 million, the efficiency ratio improved to 55.4% in the first quarter of 2020. The improvement in net interest income and noninterest income in the first quarter of 2020 was offset by a slightly higher level of noninterest expenses as explained in the preceding paragraphs.
The Company’s return on average tangible equity (Non-GAAP) was 13.8% for the three month period ended March 31, 2020 compared to 15.0% for the same period in 2019.
Return on average tangible equity is a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure and should be considered in addition to, not a substitute for or superior to, financial measures determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. With respect to the calculation of the tangible equity for the three month period ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, reconciliations are displayed in the table below.

The ratio is calculated by dividing noninterest expenses by the sum of net interest income and noninterest income. The Company strives for a lower efficiency ratio. This efficiency ratio measure is not required by any regulatory agency but provides meaningful information to management and investors since a lower ratio indicates the Company is using their assets more effectively to generate profits. |
(2) |
The tangible common equity ratio is calculated by dividing total common stockholders’ equity by total assets, after reducing both amounts by intangible assets. The tangible common equity ratio is not required by U.S. GAAP or by applicable bank regulatory requirements, but is a metric used by management to evaluate the adequacy of the Company’s capital levels. Since there is no authoritative requirement to calculate the tangible common equity ratio, the Company’s tangible common equity ratio is not necessarily comparable to similar capital measures disclosed or used by other companies in the financial services industry. Tangible common equity and tangible assets are non - U.S. GAAP financial measures and should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, financial measures determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. With respect to the calculation of the actual unaudited tangible common equity ratio as of March 31, 2020 and 2019, reconciliations of tangible common equity (non-GAAP) to U.S. GAAP total common stockholders’ equity and tangible assets (non-GAAP) to U.S. GAAP total assets are set forth below: |

Average Balance Sheets and Related Yields and Rates
(Dollar Amounts in Thousands)
(1) |
Rates are calculated on an annualized basis. |
(2) |
Equity securities include restricted stock, which is included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. |
(3) |
Non-accrual loans and overdraft deposits are included in other assets. |
(4) |
Includes unamortized discounts and premiums. Average balance and yield are computed using the average historical amortized cost. |
(5) |
Interest on loans includes fee income of $1.0 million and $877 thousand for 2020 and 2019, respectively, and is reduced by amortization of $664 thousand and $702 thousand for 2020 and 2019, respectively. |
(6) |
For 2020, adjustments of $98 thousand and $461 thousand, respectively, were made to tax equate income on tax exempt loans and tax exempt securities. For 2019, adjustments of $102 thousand and $416 thousand, respectively, were made to tax equate income on tax exempt loans and tax exempt securities. These adjustments were based on a marginal federal income tax rate of 21%, less disallowances. |

Net Interest Income. Net interest income for the three month period ended March 31, 2020 was $22.3 million compared to $20.0 million for the same period in 2019. On a tax equivalent basis net interest income was $22.9 million for the first quarter of 2020 compared to $20.5 million for the same period in 2019. The net interest margin to average earning assets on a fully taxable equivalent basis decreased 6 basis points to 3.75% for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to 3.81% for the same three month period in the prior year. In comparing the quarters ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, yields on earning assets decreased 5 basis points, while the cost of interest bearing liabilities decreased 1 basis point. Excluding the amortization of premium on time deposits and the accretion of the loan portfolio discount, the net interest margin would have been 6 basis points lower for the quarter ended March 31, 2020.
Noninterest Income. Noninterest income increased 18.3% to $7.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 compared to $6.5 million in the same quarter of 2019. Gains on the sale of mortgage loans increased $695 thousand or 104%, security gains increased $147 thousand or 1,470%, insurance agency commissions grew $80 thousand or 10% and investment commissions increased $163 thousand or 63% in comparing the first quarter of 2020 to the same quarter in 2019.
Noninterest Expense. Total noninterest expenses for the first quarter of 2020 increased 16.3% to $18.6 million compared to $16.0 million in the same quarter in 2019, primarily as a result of an increase in salaries and employee benefits of $875 thousand or 9.4%, an increase in merger related costs of $1.3 million and a $138 thousand or 158.6% increase in FDIC insurance expense. Annualized noninterest expenses measured as a percentage of quarterly average assets increased from 2.77% in the first quarter of 2019 to 2.81% in the first quarter of 2020.
The Company’s tax equivalent efficiency ratio for the three month period ended March 31, 2020 was 59.7% compared to 57.8% for the same period in 2019. Excluding acquisition costs (non-GAAP) of $1.3 million, the efficiency ratio improved to 55.40% in the first quarter of 2020. The improvement in net interest income and noninterest income in the first quarter of 2020 was offset by a slightly higher level of noninterest expenses as explained in the preceding paragraphs.
Income Taxes. Income tax expense totaled $1.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 and $1.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019. The effective tax rate for the three month period ended March 31, 2020 was 16.4% compared to the effective tax rate of 15.8% for the same period in 2019.
Other Comprehensive Income. For the quarter ended March 31, 2020, the change in net unrealized gains or losses on securities, net of reclassifications, resulted in an unrealized loss, net of tax, of $9.9 million, compared to an unrealized gain of $4.6 million for the same period in 2019. The negative change in the fair value of securities, as a result of the market’s reaction to the economy and COVID-19, for the three month period ended March 31, 2020 was the reason for the other comprehensive income decrease.
Financial Condition
Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents increased $12.3 million during the first three months of 2020 from $70.8 million to $83.1 million. The increase in the cash balance is part of normal fluctuations on the Company’s $2.668 billion balance sheet. The Company expects cash and cash equivalents to be reduced to December 31, 2019 levels over the next few months as cash is used for daily operations.
Securities. Securities available-for-sale increased by $15.8 million since December 31, 2019. The Company intends to maintain the securities portfolio’s current level, as a percentage of total assets, during the remaining months of 2020.
Loans. Gross loans increased $165.0 million since December 31, 2019. The increase in loans has occurred across many of the major loan categories but especially the commercial, commercial real estate and residential real estate loan portfolios. The Bank’s acquisition of Maple Leaf along with utilizing a talented lending and credit team while adhering to sound underwriting discipline helped to increase the loan portfolio. The increase in average loan balances along with the loans acquired in the Maple Leaf merger helped the current quarter’s loan income improve to $24.2 million or 12.2% compared to $21.6 million or 16.5% in the same quarter ended March 31, 2019.
On a tax equated basis loan income improved by $2.6 million compared to the same quarter in 2019. The average tax equivalent interest rate on the loan portfolio was 5.05% for the three month period ended March 31, 2020 compared to 5.06% for the same period in 2019.
Allowance for Loan Losses. The following table indicates key asset quality ratios that management evaluates on an ongoing basis. The recorded investment balances were used in the calculations.

In accordance with the accounting relief provisions of the CARES, the Bank has postponed the adoption of the current expected credit losses (“CECL”) accounting standards, primarily due to the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic is having on the economy and the lack of reasonable and supportable economic forecasts. Had the Company adopted CECL as of January 1, 2020, the increase to the allowance for loan losses estimated to have ranged from 15% to 20% of the amount recorded at December 31, 2019, which did not consider potential COVID-19 pandemic related impacts.
For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, management recorded a $1.1 million and $550 thousand provision for loan losses. The larger provision for the current quarter was necessary for the allowance as a result of the impact of increased negative economic factors that exist in the current business environment. . In determining the estimate of the allowance for loan losses, management computes the historical loss percentage based upon the loss history of the past 12 quarters. The Company believes that using a loss history of the previous 12 quarters helps mitigate volatility in the timing of charge-offs and better reflects probable incurred losses. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of the total loan portfolio was 0.76% at March 31, 2020 and 0.79% at March 31, 2019. The loan portfolios acquired at fair market value from Maple Leaf and other previous acquisitions were recorded at fair market value and without an associated allowance for loan loss. When the acquired loans are excluded, the ratio of allowance for loan losses to total non-acquired loans is 0.92% at March 31, 2020 and 2019. Early stage delinquencies, which are loans 30 - 89 days delinquent, as a percentage of total loans increased from 0.52% at March 31, 2019 to 0.97% at March 31, 2020 and non-performing loans as a percentage of total loans increased from 0.43% at March 31, 2019 to 0.60% at March 31, 2020. The allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans decreased from 181.80% at March 31, 2019 to 126.23% at March 31, 2020. The amount of loans made to vulnerable industries (Restaurants, Transportation, Arts/Entertainment, Hotels and Oil & Gas) is less than 4.1% of our total loan portfolio. It is also important to note that the average FICO score of our consumer loan portfolio stands at a healthy 759.
Based on the evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, management believes that the allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2020 is adequate and reflects probable incurred losses in the portfolio. The provision for loan losses is based on management’s judgment after taking into consideration all factors connected with the collectability of the existing loan portfolio. Management evaluates the loan portfolio in light of economic conditions, changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, industry standards and other relevant factors. Specific factors considered by management in determining the amounts charged to operating expenses include previous credit loss experience, the status of past due interest and principal payments, the quality of financial information supplied by loan customers and the general condition of the industries in the community to which loans have been made.
Deposits. Total deposits increased $237.3 million from December 31, 2019 to March 31, 2020, for a balance of $2.25 billion. The increase in deposits is the result of the addition of $183.3 million in deposits from the Maple Leaf acquisition and the Company’s efforts to increase deposits without causing a significant negative impact to the net interest margin. Interest bearing accounts and brokered time deposits increased a combined $221.5 million, or 14.1%, during the first three months of 2020. The increase in interest bearing accounts is mostly due to an approximate increase of $65.2 million in public funds deposits and a $32.9 million increase in brokered time deposits. Money market index accounts increased as customers moved funds out of certificates of deposit during the period.
46
At December 31, 2019 the balance in money market index accounts was $177.4 million and at March 31, 2020 it was $198.6 million, an increase of 12.0%. The Company’s strategy is to grow deposit balances. At March 31, 2020, core deposits, which include, savings and money market accounts, time deposits less than $250 thousand, demand deposits and interest bearing demand deposits represented approximately 89.1% of total deposits.
Borrowings. Total borrowing balances decreased 26.1% from $122.2 million at December 31, 2019 to $96.9 million at March 31, 2020. During the three month period ended March 31, 2020 the Company was able to repay a net amount of $60.0 million in short-term FHLB advances as a result of the use of additional brokered time deposits. The use of brokered time deposits also had a positive impact on the overall cost of funds due to lower interest rates. While short term borrowings decreased by $57.1 million since December 31, 2019, long term borrowings increased $31.7 million during that same period ended March 31, 2020. The Bank was able to lock in long term advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank at lower interest rates.
Capital Resources. Total stockholders’ equity increased $4.3 million, or 1.4%, during the three month period ended March 31, 2020. The increase in equity is due primarily to an increase in common stock due to the acquisition of Maple Leaf. Shareholders received $0.11 per share in cash dividends in the first quarter of 2020. The increased first quarter dividend to $0.11 is a 10.0% increase over the $0.10 paid in the last quarter of 2019. Book value per share decreased slightly from $10.82 per share at December 31, 2019 to $10.79 per share at March 31, 2020. The Company’s tangible book value, which is a non-GAAP measure, per share also decreased, from $9.28 per share at December 31, 2019 to $8.94 per share at March 31, 2020. During the three month period ended March 31, 2020, 942,967 shares were repurchased into treasury stock. During March 2020, the repurchase program was suspended.
The capital management function is a regular process that consists of providing capital for both the current financial position and the anticipated future growth of the Company. New minimum capital requirements associated with the Basel Committee on capital and liquidity regulation (Basel III) were phased in from January 1, 2016 through January 1, 2019. The Company must hold a capital conservation buffer of 2.5% above adequately capitalized risk-based capital ratios during 2020. At March 31, 2020 the Company is required to maintain 4.5% common equity tier 1 to risk weighted assets excluding the conservation buffer to be adequately capitalized. The Company’s common equity tier 1 to risk weighted assets was 12.26%, total risk-based capital ratio stood at 13.4%, and the Tier I risk-based capital ratio and Tier I leverage ratio were at 12.7% and 10.2%, respectively, at March 31, 2020. Management believes that the Company and the Bank meet all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject, as of March 31, 2020.
Federal bank regulatory agencies finalized a rule that simplifies capital requirements for community banks by allowing them to adopt a simple leverage ratio to measure capital adequacy. The community bank leverage ratio framework removes requirements for calculating and reporting risk-based capital ratios for a qualifying community bank that opts into the framework.
The community bank leverage ratio framework will first be available for banking organizations to use in their March 31, 2020, Call Report. The Company has not elected to use the new framework as of March 31, 2020.
Critical Accounting Policies
The Company follows financial accounting and reporting policies that are in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These policies are presented in Note 1 of the consolidated audited financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report to Shareholders included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. Critical accounting policies are those policies that require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. The Company has identified three accounting policies that are critical accounting policies and an understanding of these policies is necessary to understand the Company’s financial statements. These policies relate to determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, if there is any impairment of goodwill or other intangible, and estimating the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with the merger activity. Additional information regarding these policies is included in the notes to the aforementioned 2019 consolidated financial statements, Note 1 (Summary of Significant Accounting Policies), Note 2 (Business Combination), Note 4 (Loans), and the sections captioned “Loan Portfolio.”
U.S. GAAP establishes standards for the amortization of acquired intangible assets and the impairment assessment of goodwill. Goodwill arising from business combinations represents the value attributable to unidentifiable intangible assets in the business acquired. The Company’s goodwill relates to the value inherent in the banking industry and that value is dependent upon the ability of the Company’s subsidiaries to provide quality, cost-effective services in a competitive marketplace. The goodwill value is supported by revenue that is in part driven by the volume of business transacted. A decrease in earnings resulting from a decline in the customer base or the inability to deliver cost-effective services over sustained periods can lead to impairment of goodwill that could adversely impact earnings in future periods. U.S. GAAP requires an annual evaluation of goodwill for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. The fair value of the goodwill is estimated by reviewing the past and projected operating results for the subsidiaries and comparable industry information.

Liquidity
The Company maintains, in the opinion of management, liquidity sufficient to satisfy depositors’ requirements and meet the credit needs of customers. The Company depends on its ability to maintain its market share of deposits as well as acquiring new funds. The Company’s ability to attract deposits and borrow funds depends in large measure on its profitability, capitalization and overall financial condition. The Company’s objective in liquidity management is to maintain the ability to meet loan commitments, purchase securities or to repay deposits and other liabilities in accordance with their terms without an adverse impact on current or future earnings. Principal sources of liquidity for the Company include assets considered relatively liquid, such as federal funds sold, cash and due from banks, as well as cash flows from maturities and repayments of loans, and securities.
Along with its liquid assets, the Bank has additional sources of liquidity available which help to ensure that adequate funds are available as needed. These other sources include, but are not limited to, loan repayments, the ability to obtain deposits through the adjustment of interest rates and the purchasing of federal funds and borrowings on approved lines of credit at major domestic banks. At March 31, 2020, this line of credit totaled $35 million of which the Bank had not borrowed against. In addition, the Company has two revolving lines of credit with correspondent banks totaling $5.4 million. The outstanding balance at March 31, 2020 was $350 thousand. Management feels that its liquidity position is adequate and continues to monitor the position on a monthly basis. As of March 31, 2020, the Bank had outstanding balances with the Federal Home Loan Bank of $82.7 million with additional borrowing capacity of approximately $492.4 million with the FHLB, as well as access to the Federal Reserve Discount Window, which provides an additional source of funds. The Bank views its membership in the FHLB as a solid source of liquidity.
The primary investing activities of the Company are originating loans and purchasing securities. During the first three months of 2020, net cash provided by investing activities amounted to $3.4 million, compared to $3.9 million used in the same period in 2019. Purchases of securities available for sale used $25.2 million at March 31, 2020 compared to $10.2 million used in the same period in 2019. Loan originations and payments provided $15.6 million during the first three months of 2020 compared to $8.4 million used during the same period in 2019. Cash provided by the proceeds from the sales of securities amounted to $15.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $9.6 million in the same three month period of 2019. There was also $8.0 million used in the purchase of Maple Leaf during the three months ended March 31, 2020.
The primary financing activities of the Company are obtaining deposits, repurchase agreements and other borrowings. Net cash provided by financing activities amounted to $3.3 million for the period ended March 31, 2020, compared to $10.5 million provided in financing activities for the same period in 2019. There were large swings in three line items during the three month period ended March 31, 2020 compared to the same period last year; changes in short term borrowings used $32.1 million in the three month period ended March 31, 2020, compared to $141.3 million used during the three month period ended March 31, 2019. There was also $54.1 million provided by deposits during the three month period ended March 31, 2020 compared to $154.6 million provided during the three month period ended March 31, 2019, and there was $14.2 million used in the repurchase of common shares in the current quarter compared to $202 thousand used in the same period of the prior year.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
In the normal course of business, to meet the financial needs of our customers, we are a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk. These financial instruments generally include commitments to originate mortgage, commercial and consumer loans, and involve to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of amounts recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Bank’s maximum exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the borrower is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. Because some commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The same credit policies are used in making commitments as are used for on-balance sheet instruments. Collateral is required in instances where deemed necessary. Undisbursed balances of loans closed include funds not disbursed but committed for construction projects. Unused lines of credit include funds not disbursed, but committed for, home equity, commercial and consumer lines of credit. Financial standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily used to support public and private borrowing arrangements. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. Total unused commitments were $397.4 million at March 31, 2020 and $372.4 at December 31, 2019. Additionally, the Company has committed up to $8 million in subscriptions in Small Business Investment Company investment funds. At March 31, 2020 the Company had invested $6.7 million in these funds.
Recent Market and Regulatory Developments
Various and significant legislation affecting financial institutions and the financial industry is from time to time introduced in the U.S. Congress and state legislatures, as well as by regulatory agencies. Such initiatives may include proposals to expand or contract the powers of bank holding companies and depository institutions or proposals to substantially change the financial institution regulatory system.
48
It is likely that the Trump Administration and the U.S. Congress will pursue and potentially implement legislative or regulatory changes affecting financial institutions and the financial industry. In 2018, President Trump signed a bill reforming the Dodd-Frank Act and the Trump Administration has indicated its intent to loosen additional regulations. Such legislation could change the operating environment for Farmers and its subsidiaries in unpredictable ways, decrease the costs of doing business, expand permissible activities or affect the competitive balance among financial institutions. With the enactment and the continuing implementation of the Dodd-Frank Act and regulations thereunder, the nature and extent of future legislative and regulatory changes affecting financial institutions remains very unpredictable. Farmers cannot predict the scope and timing of any such future legislation and, if enacted, the effect that it could have on its business, financial condition or results of operations.
Also, such statutes, regulations and policies are continually under review by Congress, state legislatures and federal and state regulatory agencies and are subject to change at any time, particularly in the current economic and regulatory environment. Any such change in statutes, regulations or regulatory policies applicable to the Company could have a material effect on the business of the Company.
Item 3. |
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk |
The Company’s ability to maximize net income is dependent, in part, on management’s ability to plan and control net interest income through management of the pricing and mix of assets and liabilities. Because a large portion of assets and liabilities of the Company are monetary in nature, changes in interest rates and monetary or fiscal policy affect its financial condition and can have significant impact on the net income of the Company. Additionally, the Company’s balance sheet is slightly asset sensitive and in the uncertain interest rate environment that exists today, the Company’s net interest margin could be under additional pressure should interest rates continue to remain low in the near future.
The Company considers the primary market exposure to be interest rate risk. Simulation analysis is used to monitor the Company’s exposure to changes in interest rates, and the effect of the change to net interest income. The following table shows the effect on net interest income and the net present value of equity in the event of a sudden and sustained 300 basis point increase or 100 basis point decrease in market interest rates:

It should be noted that the change in the net present value of equity exceeded policy when the simulation model assumed a sudden decrease in rates of 100 basis points (1%). This is primarily due to the positive impact on the fair value of assets not being as great as the negative impact on the fair value of certain liabilities. Specifically, because core deposits typically bear relatively low interest rates, their fair value would be negatively impacted as the rates could not be adjusted by the full extent of the sudden decrease in rates. Management will continue to monitor the policy exception and may consider changes to the asset/liability position in the future. The remaining results of the simulations indicate that interest rate change results fall within internal limits established by the Company at March 31, 2020. A report on interest rate risk is presented to the Board of Directors and the Asset/Liability Committee on a quarterly basis. The Company has no market risk sensitive instruments held for trading purposes, nor does it hold derivative financial instruments, and does not plan to purchase these instruments in the near future.
Item 4. |
Controls and Procedures |
Based on their evaluation, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) are effective. There were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a–15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2020, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. |
Legal Proceedings |
The Company is a defendant in lawsuits and other adversary proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Legal costs incurred in connection with the resolution of claims and lawsuits are generally expensed as incurred, although the Company establishes accruals where losses are deemed probable and reasonably estimable. The Company’s assessment of the current exposure with respect to adverse claims in legal matters could change in the event of the discovery of additional facts in such matters or upon determinations by judges, juries, administrative agencies or other finders of fact that are inconsistent with the Company’s evaluation of claims. Additional disclosures relating to charges accrued during 2019 in connection with certain legal proceedings are included in the Contingencies Note. It is possible that the ultimate resolution of other matters, if unfavorable, may be material to the results of operations in a particular future period as the time and amount of any resolution of such actions and its relationship to the future results of operations are not known.
Item 1A. |
Risk Factors |
For a discussion of risk factors related to the Company, refer to Part 1, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. The following risk factor should be read in conjunction with those risk factors.
The outbreak of the recent COVID-19 could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our business is dependent upon the willingness and ability of our customers to conduct banking and other financial transactions. The spread of a highly infectious or contagious disease, such as COVlD-19, has caused severe disruptions in the U.S. economy, which could in turn disrupt the businesses, activities, and operations of our customers, as well as our business and operations. Moreover, the COVID-19 outbreak has caused significant disruption in the financial markets both globally and in the United States. The spread of COVID-19, including the time such outbreak takes to wane and the time it takes our markets to return to normal, may result in a significant decrease in business and/or cause our customers to be unable to meet existing payment or other obligations to us. Although we maintain contingency plans, the spread could also negatively impact the business and operations of third-party service providers who perform critical services for us. The spread of COVID-19, or another highly infectious or contagious disease, or the failure to contain such spread, could have a material adverse effect to our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Adverse changes in the ability or willingness of our customers to meet their repayment obligations to the Company could adversely impact our liquidity, financial condition and results of operations.
Our business consists mainly of making loans to salaried people or other wage earners who generally depend on their earnings to meet their repayment obligations, and our ability to collect on loans depends on the willingness and repayment ability of our customers. Adverse changes in the ability or willingness of a significant portion of our customers to repay their obligations to the Company, whether due to changes in general economic, political or social conditions, the cost of consumer goods, interest rates, natural disasters, acts of war or terrorism, prolonged public health crisis or a pandemic, such as COVID-19, or other causes, or events affecting our customers such as unemployment, major medical expenses, bankruptcy, divorce or death, could have a material effect on our liquidity, financial condition and results of operations.
We maintain an allowance for loan losses in our financial statements at a level considered adequate by Management to absorb probable loan losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date, based on estimates and assumptions at that date. However, the amount of actual future loan losses we may incur is susceptible to changes in economic, operating and other conditions within our various local markets, which may be beyond our control, and such losses may exceed current estimates. Although Management believes that the Company’s allowance for loan losses is adequate to absorb losses on any existing loans that may become uncollectible, we cannot estimate loan losses with certainty, and we cannot provide any assurances that our allowance for loan losses will prove sufficient to cover actual loan losses in the future. Loan losses in excess of our reserves may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
In any event, any reduced liquidity could negatively impact our ability to be able to fund loans, or to pay the principal and interest on any of our outstanding debt securities at any time, including when due.

Exhibit 10.1
Notice of Grant of Restricted Stock Award, Performance-based Equity Award, and Performance-based Cash Award |
Name Address City, State Zip |
Subject to the terms and conditions of the 2017 Equity Incentive Plan and the Farmers National Banc Corp. Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plans”) and the accompanying Restricted Stock Award Agreement, Performance-based Equity Award Agreement, and Performance-based Cash Award Agreement (the “Award Agreements”), you have been granted Shares of Restricted Stock, Performance-based Shares, and a Performance-based Cash Award (collectively, the “Awards”) as follows:

Your Awards consist of the following: Shares of Restricted Stock 1 Performance-based Shares 2 $ __Target Performance-based Cash 3 |
Vesting Schedule: |
Your Awards of Shares of Restricted Stock, Performance-based Shares, and Performance-based Cash will be subject to vesting on February 18, 2022 (Normal Vesting Date). |
Settlement: |
Your Awards will be settled in Shares or Cash, depending on the Award, as described in the respective Award Agreements. |
This Notice of Grant and the accompanying Award Agreements describe your Awards and the terms and conditions of your Awards. To ensure you fully understand these terms and conditions, you should:
|

The resulting number of Shares were rounded to the nearest whole Share. |
2 |
Number of Performance-based Shares were determined by multiplying $____ by .5, dividing the result by $___ (to determine the target number of Performance-based Shares), and multiplying the result by 2 (to determine the maximum number of Performance-based Shares). The resulting number of Performance-based Shares were rounded to the nearest whole Share. |
3 |
Your target Performance-based Cash Award was determined by multiplying $____ by .25. |
Exhibit 10.2
FARMERS NATIONAL BANC CORP.
PERFORMANCE-BASED EQUITY AWARD AGREEMENT
(2020)
Farmers National Banc Corp. (the “Company”) hereby grants the undersigned Participant an Award pursuant to the Farmers National Banc Corp. 2017 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity LTI Plan”) as evidenced by the Notice of Grant accompanying this Award Agreement (the “Grant Notice”), and as further described in this Award Agreement (this “Award Agreement”).
2. |
Performance Period: The three-year period beginning January 1, 2020 and ending on December 31, 2022 (the “Performance Period”). |
3. |
Target Equity Award as Percentage of Base Compensation: ____% x .50 (the “Target Performance-Based Equity Award”). |
4. |
Earning an Award: The Participant shall be eligible to receive a benefit in Company common shares equal in value based on the Grant Date between 0% and 200% of the Target Performance-Based Equity Award, based on achievement during the Performance Period of the Performance Objective set forth below. Performance between two stated levels will be interpolated when determining the percentage of the Target Performance-Based Equity Award earned. |
The amount of the Target Performance-Based Equity Award that may be earned in Company common shares will be based on the sum of the Company’s return on equity for each fiscal year during the Performance Period divided by three (“Average ROE”), compared to the Average ROE of the Company’s Peer Group during the Performance Period (“Relative Average ROE”). The total, maximum number of ROE Award Shares described in the Grant Notice eligible to be earned was determined by (i) dividing the dollar amount of Participant’s Target Performance-Based Equity Award by the average reported closing price of a share of Company common stock during the 30-day period ending on the day prior to the Grant Date of this Award, and (ii) multiplying the result by 200% (x 2.0), rounded to the nearest whole share. Therefore, between 0% and 100% of the ROE Award Shares are subject to vesting on the “Normal Vesting Date” stated in the Grant Notice, in accordance with the following schedule and percentages:
Performance Objective: Relative Average ROE during Performance Period |
Percentage of Average ROE Award Shares Earned |
Less than Peer Group 25th percentile |
0% |
Equal to Peer Group 25th percentile (threshold) |
10% |
Equal to Peer Group 50th percentile (target) |
50% |
Equal to or higher than Peer Group 75th percentile (max) |
100% |
For these purposes: (i) Relative Average ROE shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion; and (ii) the Committee shall select the institutions constituting, and make such periodic adjustments as it determines appropriate to, the “Peer Group” in its sole discretion.
5. |
Payment of Award: With respect to the Performance Period, the Committee shall certify the level of achievement of the Performance Objective set forth in Section 4 and determine the amount payable with respect to your Award based on such level of achievement. Payment of the Award shall be made to the Participant on the Normal Vesting Date in the form of a number of Company common shares determined by multiplying the applicable percentage for the level of performance certified by the Compensation Committee times the Participant’s total number of ROE Award Shares. Any ROE Award Shares that do not vest as of the Normal Vesting Date will be forfeited. |
6. |
Limitations on Payment of Award: The Committee may, in its sole discretion, reduce the amount payable with respect to the Award. |
7. |
Forfeiture of Awards: If the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to material non-compliance of the Company, as a result of misconduct by a Participant, with any financial reporting requirement under any applicable laws, the Participant shall reimburse the Company for all amounts received under the Equity LTI Plan within 30 days after receipt of notice of the same from the Company. |
8. |
Effect of Termination: Participant may forfeit this Award if employment terminates prior to the Normal Vesting Date, although it will depend on the reason for termination as provided below: |
|
(a) |
Death, Disability or Retirement. If you terminate due to death, Disability, or Retirement, you will vest in a prorated portion of your ROE Award Shares determined by multiplying the number of your ROE Award Shares by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of whole months you were employed from the Grant Date to the date of death, Disability or Retirement, and the denominator of which is 36. Payment of the Award shall be made to the Participant in the form of a number of Company common shares determined by multiplying such pro rata portion of your ROE Award Shares by the applicable percentage for the level of performance certified by the Compensation Committee, with performance based on the Company’s relative Average ROE for the portion of the Performance Period that ended on the last day of the calendar quarter immediately preceding the date of termination. Such settlement of the Award will occur within ninety (90) days of the date of termination. Any ROE Award Shares that do not vest or are not so settled will be forfeited. |
|
(b) |
Termination by the Company without Cause or by Participant for Good Reason. If the Company terminates your employment without “Cause,” or you terminate your employment with the Company for “Good Reason,” each as defined in Exhibit A attached hereto and incorporated herein, you will vest in and receive a prorated portion of your ROE Award Shares determined in the same manner as described in Section 8(a) hereinabove based on your termination date. |
|
(c) |
Termination for any Other Reason. If your employment with the Company terminates under any other circumstance (including if such termination is by the Company for Cause regardless of whether such termination could also constitute a Retirement), your ROE Award Shares will be forfeited on your termination date. |
-2-
|
(a) |
If such a Change in Control occurs prior to the Normal Vesting Date and in connection therewith or within two years thereafter your employment is terminated either by the Company or a successor in interest for any reason other than for “Cause” or by you for “Good Reason,” you shall be entitled to receive a number of Company common shares determined as though the Performance Objective had been satisfied at the “target” level of achievement for the Performance Period. Therefore, 50% of your unvested ROE Award Shares which remain unvested as of the termination date will fully vest. |
10. |
Restrictive Covenants. |
|
(a) |
Non-Solicitation. The Participant acknowledges and agrees that as a condition to and in consideration of this Award Agreement, during the term of the Participant’s employment and for a period of twenty-four (24) months thereafter (the “Non-Solicitation Restrictive Period”), the Participant will not, directly or indirectly: |
|
(i) |
Solicit, engage or otherwise interfere with any customer or client who is at the time of termination or was within the preceding six (6) months of termination a customer or client of Company, its subsidiaries or any other related entity for the purposes of directly or indirectly furnishing any financial or banking services that a national banking association, bank holding company, state bank, savings and loan association or other regulated financial institution is permitted by law to conduct or furnish on the date the Participant’s employment is terminated. |

Exhibit 10.4
FARMERS NATIONAL BANC CORP.
PERFORMANCE-BASED CASH AWARD AGREEMENT
(2020)
Farmers National Banc Corp. (the “Company”) hereby grants the undersigned Participant an Award pursuant to the Farmers National Banc Corp. Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Cash LTI Plan”), as evidenced by the Notice of Grant accompanying this Award Agreement (the “Grant Notice”), and as further described in this Award Agreement (this “Award Agreement”).
2. |
Performance Period: The three-year period beginning on the January 1, 2020 and ending on December 31, 2022 (the “Performance Period”). |
3. |
Target Cash Award as Percentage of Base Compensation: ____% x .25 (the “Target Performance-Based Cash Award”). |
4. |
Earning an Award: The Participant shall be eligible to receive a payment equal to between 0% and 200% of the Target Performance-Based Cash Award, based on achievement during the Performance Period of the Performance Objective set forth below. Performance between two stated levels will be interpolated when determining the percentage of the Target Performance-Based Cash Award earned. |
The percentage of the Target Performance-Based Cash Award that is earned will be based on the Company’s Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”) during the Performance Period compared to the Total Shareholder Return of the Company’s Peer Group during the Performance Period (“Relative TSR”), expressed as a percentile. Between 0% and 200% of the Target Performance-Based Cash Award is subject to vesting on the “Normal Vesting Date” stated in the Grant Notice, in accordance with the following schedule and percentages:
Performance Objective: Relative TSR during Performance Period |
Percentage of Target Cash Award Earned |
Less than Peer Group 25th percentile |
0% |
Equal to Peer Group 25th percentile (threshold) |
20% |
Equal to Peer Group 50th percentile (target) |
100% |
Equal to or higher than Peer Group 75th percentile (max) |
200% |
For these purposes: (i) Relative TSR shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion; and (ii) the Committee shall select the institutions constituting, and make such periodic adjustments as it determines appropriate to, the “Peer Group” in its sole discretion.
6. |
Limitations on Payment of Award: The Committee may, in its sole discretion, reduce the amount payable with respect to the Award. |
7. |
Forfeiture of Awards: If the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to material non-compliance of the Company, as a result of misconduct by a Participant, with any financial reporting requirement under any applicable laws, the Participant shall reimburse the Company for all amounts received under the Cash LTI Plan within 30 days after receipt of notice of the same from the Company. |
8. |
Effect of Termination: Participant may forfeit this Award if employment terminates prior to the Normal Vesting Date, although it will depend on the reason for termination as provided below: |
|
(a) |
Death, Disability or Retirement. If you terminate due to death, Disability, or Retirement, the amount of your Award (if any) shall be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of whole months you were employed from the Grant Date to the date of death, Disability or Retirement, and the denominator of which is 36. Payment of the Award shall be made to the Participant in cash in a single lump sum determined by multiplying such pro rata portion of your Target Performance-Based Cash Award by the applicable percentage for the level of performance certified by the Compensation Committee, with performance based on the Company’s relative TSR for the portion of the Performance Period that ended on the last day of the calendar quarter immediately preceding the date of termination. Such payment of the Award will occur within ninety (90) days of the date of termination. |
|
(b) |
Termination by the Company without Cause or by Participant for Good Reason. If the Company terminates your employment without “Cause,” or you terminate your employment with the Company for “Good Reason,” each as defined in Exhibit A attached hereto and incorporated herein, you will be paid a prorated portion of your Target Performance-Based Cash Award determined in the same manner as described in Section 8(a) hereinabove based on your termination date. |
|
(c) |
Termination for any Other Reason. If your employment with the Company terminates under any other circumstance (including if such termination is by the Company for Cause regardless of whether such termination could also constitute a Retirement), you shall forfeit any rights with respect to the Award on your termination date. |
-2-
9. |
Effect of Change in Control: Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Change in Control occurs after the Grant Date, your Award will be subject to the following additional terms and conditions: |
|
(a) |
If such a Change in Control occurs prior to the Normal Vesting Date and in connection therewith or within two years thereafter your employment is terminated either by the Company or a successor in interest for any reason other than for “Cause” or by you for “Good Reason,” you shall be entitled to receive a payment equal to the amount payable with respect to your Award as though the Performance Objective had been satisfied at the “target” level of achievement for the Performance Period. Therefore, you shall be entitled to a payment in the amount of 100% of your Target Performance-Based Cash Award. Payment will be made in a single lump-sum cash payment within 60 days following the termination date. |

Other Terms and Conditions. |
|
(i) |
The Participant acknowledges that the Participant is entering into this Award Agreement voluntarily and has given careful consideration to the restraints imposed by this Award Agreement. Irrespective of the manner of any employment termination, the restraints imposed by this Award Agreement will be operative during their full time periods and throughout the restrictive areas set forth in this Award Agreement. The Participant further acknowledges that if the Participant’s employment with the Company terminates for any reason the Participant can earn a livelihood without violating the foregoing restrictions and that the Participant’s ability to earn a livelihood without violating these restrictions is a material employment condition. The Participant acknowledges and recognizes that if the Participant’s employment terminates for any reason, this Section 10 of the Award Agreement will survive any such termination and any expiration of this Award Agreement. Further, the Participant agrees and consents that this Award Agreement is assignable by the Company. |
|
(ii) |
The Participant agrees that if a court of law finds that the provisions of this Award Agreement are too harsh so that they are unenforceable, then such court of law may enforce those restrictions and limitations which are acceptable and deemed enforceable by the court. |
|
(iii) |
In the event the Participant breaches the terms of this Award Agreement, it is agreed that all time periods contained in this Award Agreement will be tolled until the Participant ceases to breach this Award Agreement. |
|
(e) |
Injunction. The parties acknowledge and agree, due to the subject matter of this Award Agreement, that money damages will be an inadequate remedy for a breach by Participant of any of the obligations hereunder. Consequently, if the Participant breaches or threatens to breach any of the obligations under this Award Agreement, the Participant agrees that the Company shall have the right, in addition to any other rights or remedies available to it at law or in equity, to obtain equitable relief, including, without limitation, injunctive relief and specific performance, in the event of any breach or threatened breach. Further, the parties hereto agree and declare that it may be impossible to measure in monetary terms the damages that may accrue to the Company by reason of Participant’s violation of this Award Agreement. Therefore, in the event that the Company, or any successor in interest thereto, shall institute an action or proceeding to enforce the provisions of this Award Agreement, each party or other person against whom such action or proceeding is brought shall and hereby does, in advance, waive the claim or defense that there is adequate remedy at law. In the event such injunctive relief is warranted and obtained by the Company, Participant agrees to pay all costs of said action, including reasonable attorney fees. |

“Cause” means that, in the reasonable judgment of the Compensation Committee, any of the following events have occurred: (1) the willful or negligent failure by the Participant to substantially perform his or her duties with the Company and, after written notification by the Company to the Participant, the continued failure of the Participant to substantially perform such duties; (2) the willful or negligent engagement by the Participant in conduct which is demonstrably and materially injurious to the Company, financially or otherwise; (3) action or inaction by the Participant that constitutes a breach of fiduciary duty with respect to the Company or any of its subsidiaries; (4) the violation of any material written policy, rule or regulation of the Company; or (5) the Participant’s material breach of any agreement in respect of confidentiality with the Company, whether or not entered into after the Grant Date.
“Good Reason” means the occurrence of any of the following: (1) a reduction in Participant’s annual base salary rate, unless such reduction generally applies to other Participants regardless of the reason(s) therefor; (2) a substantial diminution in Participant’s duties, authorities or responsibilities; or (3) the relocation of Participant’s principal place of employment with the Company such that (a) the distance from the former principal place of employment to the relocated principal place of employment is over 50 miles and (b) the distance from his or her primary residence to the relocated principal place of employment is over 50 miles; provided, however, that Good Reason shall exist only to the extent that Participant provides the Company with written notice of his or her intention to terminate employment with the Company for Good Reason that specifies the condition(s) constituting Good Reason and the Company fails to correct such condition(s) within ten (10) business days from receipt of such written notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Good Reason shall cease to exist for an event on the one hundred and twentieth (120th) day following the later of its occurrence or Participant’s knowledge thereof, unless Participant has given the Company written notice of such condition and of Participant’s intent to terminate for Good Reason prior to such date.
