Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

(Dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)

1. Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies

The financial statements include the accounts of Rhinebeck Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”), a stock holding company, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Rhinebeck Bank (the “Bank”), a New York chartered stock savings bank. The primary purpose of the Company is to act as a holding company for the Bank. The Bank provides a full range of banking and financial services to consumer and commercial customers through its fourteen branches and two representative offices located in Dutchess, Ulster, Orange, and Albany counties. Financial services, including investment advisory and financial product sales, are offered through a division of the Bank doing business as Rhinebeck Asset Management.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which in the opinion of management are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods and are of a normal and recurring nature. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023 or for any other period.

The unaudited financial statements and other financial information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements, and related notes, of Rhinebeck Bancorp, Inc. at and for the year ended December 31, 2022 contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 23, 2023.

For more information regarding the Company’s significant accounting policies, see the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As of March 31, 2023, the critical accounting policies of the Company have not changed materially from those disclosed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, with the exception of the allowance for credit losses (“ACL”). See Note 1 of the Consolidated Financial Statements– Impact of Recent Accounting Pronouncements.

Basis of Financial Statements Presentation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and general practices within the banking industry. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities, as of the date of the consolidated statements of financial condition and reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for credit losses, the evaluation of goodwill for impairment and the valuation of deferred tax assets.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the prior year consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation.

Impact of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Adoption of New Accounting Standards in 2023

Table of Contents

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

(Dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)

Effective January 1, 2023, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13 “ASU 2016-13 Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”, which replaced the prior incurred loss methodology with an expected loss methodology that is referred to as the current expected credit loss (“CECL” or the “CECL Standard”). The measurement of expected credit losses under the CECL Standard is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including portfolio loans and investment securities classified as held-to-maturity. It also applies to off-balance sheet credit exposures including loan commitments, standby letters of credit, financial guarantees and other similar instruments. In addition, the CECL Standard changes the accounting for investment securities classified as available for sale ("AFS"), including a requirement that estimated credit losses on AFS securities be presented as an allowance rather than as a direct write-down of the carrying balance of securities which we do not intend to sell, or believe that it is more likely than not, that we will be required to sell.

The Company adopted the CECL Standard using the modified retrospective method for all financial assets measured at amortized cost and off-balance sheet credit exposures. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2023 are presented under the CECL Standard while prior period amounts continue to be reported in accordance with previously applicable accounting guidance. The adoption of the CECL Standard resulted in the following adjustments to our financial statements as of January 1, 2023:


	Change in Consolidated				Change to Retained Earnings
	Statement of Condition		Tax Effect		from Adoption of CECL
Allowance for credit losses (loans)	$	580	$	122	$	458
ACL (unfunded credit commitments)		221		46		175

Total impact of CECL adoption	$	801	$	168	$	633

Effective January 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASU 2022-02, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures” (“ASU 2022-02”). ASU 2022-02 eliminates the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) in ASC 310-40, “Receivables - Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors” for entities that have adopted the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model introduced by ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2022-02 also requires that public business entities disclose current-period gross charge-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investments in leases within the scope of Subtopic 326-20, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses—Measured at Amortized Cost”. The Company adopted ASU 2022-02 on January 1, 2023. The adoption of ASU 2022-02 did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Emerging Growth Company Status

As an emerging growth company, the Company may delay adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards until such date that the standards are required to be adopted by non-issuer companies. If such standards would not apply to non-issuer companies, no deferral would be applicable. The Company is taking advantage of the benefits of the extended transition periods allowed under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act.

Accordingly, the Company’s consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to those of public companies that adopt new or revised financial accounting standards as of an earlier date. The effective dates of the recent accounting standards reflect those that relate to non-issuer companies.

At March 31, 2023, the Company had 241 individual available-for-sale securities in an unrealized loss position with unrealized losses totaling $33,046 with an aggregate depreciation of 12.99% from the Company’s amortized cost.

On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13 and implemented the CECL methodology for allowance for credit losses on its investment securities available-for-sale. The new CECL methodology replaces the other-than-temporary impairment model that previously existed. The Company did not have a CECL day 1 impact attributable to its investment securities portfolio and did not have an allowance for credit losses on its investment securities available for sale as of March 31, 2023.

The Company evaluates securities in an unrealized loss position for impairment related to credit losses on at least a quarterly basis. Securities in unrealized loss positions are first assessed as to whether we intend to sell, or if it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If one of the criteria is met, the security’s amortized cost basis is written down to fair value through current earnings. For securities that do not meet these criteria, the Company evaluates whether the decline in fair value resulted from credit losses or other factors. If this assessment indicates that a credit loss exists, we compare the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security with the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis for the security, a credit loss exists and an allowance for credit losses is recorded, limited to the amount that the fair value of the security is less than its amortized cost basis. Unrealized losses on asset backed securities, state and municipal securities, and corporate bonds have not been recognized into income because the issuers are of high credit quality, we do not intend to sell and it is likely that we will not be required to sell the securities prior to their anticipated recovery. The decline in fair value is largely due to changes in interest rates and other market conditions. The issuers continue to make timely principal and interest payments on the securities. Any impairment that has not been recorded through an allowance for credit losses is recognized in other comprehensive income, net of applicable taxes. No allowance for credit losses for available-for-sale securities was recorded as of March 31, 2023.

Federal agency obligations, residential mortgage backed pass-through securities and commercial mortgage back pass-through securities are issued by U.S. Government agencies and U.S. Government sponsored enterprises. Although a government guarantee exists on these investments, these entities are not legally backed by the full faith and credit of the federal government. Nonetheless, at this time we do not foresee any set of circumstances in which the government would not fund its commitments on these investments.

Effective January 1, 2023, the Company has modified its accounting policy for the ACL on loans as described below.

The ACL on loans is management’s estimate of expected credit losses over the expected life of the loans at the reporting date. The ACL on loans is increased through a provision for credit losses recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income and by recoveries of amounts previously charged off. The ACL on loans is reduced by charge-offs on loans. Loan charge-offs are recognized when management believes the collectability of the principal balance outstanding is unlikely. Full or partial charge-offs on individually analyzed loans are generally recognized when the collateral or future cash flows are deemed to be insufficient to support the carrying value of the loan.

The level of the ACL on loans is based on management’s ongoing review of all relevant information, from internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Historical credit loss experience provides the basis for the calculation of loss given default and the estimation of expected credit losses. As discussed further below, adjustments to historical information are made for differences in specific risk characteristics, such as differences in underwriting standards, portfolio mix, delinquency levels, or terms, as well as for changes in environmental conditions, that may not be reflected in historical loss rates.

Management employs a process and methodology to estimate the ACL on loans that evaluate both quantitative and qualitative factors. The methodology for evaluating quantitative factors consists of two basic components. The first component involves pooling loans into portfolio segments for loans that share similar risk characteristics. Pooled loan portfolio segments include commercial construction, commercial real estate, commercial and industrial, residential real estate (including homeowner construction), home equity, indirect automobile and other consumer loans. The second component involves individually analyzed loans that do not share similar risk characteristics with loans that are pooled into portfolio segments or are determined for foreclosure.

For loans that are individually analyzed, the ACL is measured using a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) methodology based upon the loan’s contractual effective interest rate, or at the loan’s observable market price, or, if the loan is collateral-dependent, at the fair value of the collateral. Factors management considers when measuring the extent of expected credit loss include payment status, collateral value, borrower financial condition, guarantor support and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. For collateral-dependent loans for which repayment is to be provided substantially through the sale of the collateral, management adjusts the fair value for estimated costs to sell. Management may also adjust appraised values to reflect estimated market value declines or apply other discounts to appraised values for unobservable factors resulting from its knowledge of circumstances associated with the collateral.

(Dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)

For pooled loans, the Company utilizes a DCF methodology to estimate credit losses over the expected life of the loans. The life of the loan excludes expected extensions, renewals and modifications. Management utilizes the national unemployment rate as an econometric factor with a one-year forecast period and one-year straight-line reversion period to the historical mean of its macroeconomic assumption in order to estimate the probability of default for each loan portfolio segment. The DCF methodology combines the probability of default, the loss given default, maturity date and prepayment speeds to estimate a reserve for each loan. The sum of all the loan level reserves are aggregated for each portfolio segment and a loss rate factor is derived.

Because the methodology is based upon historical experience and trends, current economic data, reasonable and supportable forecasts, as well as management’s judgment, factors may arise that result in different estimations. Deteriorating conditions or assumptions could lead to further increases in the ACL on loans. In addition, various regulatory agencies periodically review the ACL on loans. Such agencies may require additions to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination. The ACL on loans is an estimate, and ultimate losses may vary from management’s estimate.

The following table presents the Company’s amortized cost basis of individually analyzed loans and related ACL at March 31, 2023:

The Company has transferred a portion of its originated commercial real estate loans to participating lenders. The amounts transferred have been accounted for as sales and are therefore not included in the Company’s accompanying statements of financial condition. The Company and participating lenders share ratably in any gains or losses that may result from a loan’s performance under its contractual terms. The Company continues to service the loans on behalf of the participating lenders and, as such, collects cash payments from the borrowers, remits payments to participating lenders and disburses required escrow funds to relevant parties. At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company was servicing loans for participants aggregating $32,513 and $8,466, respectively.

Residential mortgage and consumer loans secured by residential real estate properties for which formal foreclosure proceedings are in process totaled $612 and $625 at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and are all individually analyzed.

As a result of the adoption of ASU 2022-02, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures” on January 1, 2023, the Company had no reportable balances related to TDRs as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

The Company services certain loans that it has sold to third parties. The aggregate balances of loans serviced for others were $295,977 and $301,235 as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Included in these loans serviced for others are loans serviced for the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation with a recourse provision whereby the Company is obligated to bear all cost when a default, including foreclosure occurs. At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the maximum contingent liability associated with loans sold with recourse was $726 and $276, respectively, which is not recorded in the consolidated financial statements. Losses are borne in priority order by the borrower, private mortgage insurance and the Company. The Company has never repurchased any loans or incurred any losses under these recourse provisions.

The balances of capitalized servicing rights, included in other assets at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, were $2,292 and $2,409, respectively. Fair value exceeds carrying value, and thus, no impairment charges related to servicing rights were recognized during the period ended March 31, 2023 or the year ended December 31, 2022.

Activity in the Company’s ACL for loans for the three months ended March 31, 2023 is summarized in the table below. The Adoption of the CECL Standard row presents adjustments recorded on January 1, 2023 through retained earnings.

In the normal course of business, the Company grants loans to officers, directors and other related parties. Balances and activity of such loans during the periods presented were not material.

On an annual basis, or more often if needed, the Company formally reviews the ratings on all commercial real estate, multifamily, construction and commercial loans. To assist in the review process, the Company engages an independent third-party to review a significant portion of loans within these segments. Consumer loans are rated as performing or non-performing based on payment status in accordance with regulatory retail credit guidance. Management uses the results of these reviews as part of its annual review process. In addition, management utilizes delinquency reports, the watch list and other loan reports to monitor credit quality of other loan segments.

Credit Quality Indicators. 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 analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk. This analysis is performed on all loans at origination, and is updated on a quarterly basis for loans risk rated Watch, Special Mention, Substandard, or Doubtful.

The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:

Watch – Loans classified as watch exhibit weaknesses that require more than usual monitoring. Issues may include deteriorating financial condition, payments made after due date but within 30 days, adverse industry conditions or management problems.

Special Mention – Loans classified as special mention exhibit signs of further deterioration but still generally make payments within 30 days. This is a transitional rating and loans should typically not be rated Special Mention for more than 12 months.

Substandard – Loans classified as substandard possess weaknesses that jeopardize the ultimate collection of the principal and interest outstanding. These loans exhibit continued financial losses, ongoing delinquency, overall poor financial condition, and/or insufficient collateral. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Doubtful – Loans classified as non-performing have all the weaknesses of substandard loans, and have deteriorated to the level that there is a high probability of substantial loss.

Loans not meeting the criteria above that are analyzed individually as part of the above described process are considered to be Pass rated loans.

Borrowings under this line require collateralization through the pledge of specific loans and securities. At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Bank had pledged assets of $202,035 and $195,455, respectively. The Company had no outstanding overnight line of credit balances with the FHLB at either March 31, 2023 or December 31, 2022. These borrowings would mature the following business day.

The Bank is required to maintain an investment in capital stock of the FHLB, as collateral, in an amount equal to a certain percentage of its outstanding debt. FHLB stock is considered restricted stock and is carried at cost. The Bank evaluates FHLB stock for impairment based on the ultimate recovery ability of the cost. No impairment was recognized at either March 31, 2023 or December 31, 2022.

Subordinated Debt

In addition to the Bank, the Company has one other wholly-owned subsidiary, RSB Capital Trust I (the “Trust”). In 2005, the Trust issued $5,000 of pooled trust preferred securities in a private placement and issued 155 shares of common stock at $1 par value per share, to the Company. The Trust, which has no independent assets or operations, was formed in 2005 for the sole purpose of issuing trust preferred securities and investing the proceeds thereof in an equivalent amount of junior subordinated debentures. The proceeds from the issuance of the trust preferred securities were down-streamed to the Bank and are currently considered Tier 1 capital for purposes of determining the Bank’s capital ratios. The duration of the Trust is 30 years.

The subordinated debt securities of $5,155 are unsecured obligations of the Company and are subordinate and junior in right of payment to all present and future senior indebtedness of the Company. The Company has entered into a guarantee, which together with its obligations under the subordinated debt securities and the declaration of trust governing the Trust, including its obligations to pay costs, expenses, debts and liabilities, provides a full and unconditional guarantee of amounts on the capital securities. The subordinated debentures, which bear interest at three month LIBOR plus 2.00% (6.92% at March 31, 2023 and 6.69% at December 31, 2022) mature on May 23, 2035. After June 30, 2023, the three month LIBOR rate will be replaced by the three month CME term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as adjusted by adding 0.26%, the relevant spread adjustment.

8. Employee Benefits

Pension Plan

The Bank maintains a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan covering substantially all of its employees 21 years of age or older who had completed at least one year of service as of June 30, 2012, the effective date on which the Board of Directors of the Bank voted to freeze the defined benefit plan.

The following table sets forth the plan’s funded status and amounts recognized in the Company’s consolidated statements of financial condition:


	March 31,		December 31,
	2023		2022
Projected and accumulated benefit obligation	$	(18,037)	$	(17,138)
Plan assets at fair value		17,729		16,906
Funded status included in accrued expenses and other liabilities	$	(308)	$	(232)

The net periodic pension cost and amounts recognized in other expense are as follows:


	Three months ended March 31,
	2023		2022
Interest cost	$	215	$	158
Expected return on plan assets		(232)		(252)
Amortization of unrecognized loss		93		67
Net periodic cost (benefit)	$	76	$	(27)

The expected long-term rate of return on plan assets has been determined by applying historical average investment returns from published indexes relating to the current allocation of assets in the plan. Plan assets are invested in pooled separate accounts consisting of underlying investments in nine diversified investment funds.

As of March 31, 2023, the investment funds included seven equity funds and two fixed income bond funds, each with its own investment objectives, investment strategies and risks, as detailed in the Company’s investment policy statement. The Company determines the appropriate strategic asset allocation versus plan liabilities, as governed by the investment policy statement.

The assets of the plan are invested under the supervision of the Company’s investment committee in accordance with the investment policy statement. The investment options of the plan are chosen in a manner consistent with generally accepted standards of fiduciary responsibility. The investment performance of the Company’s individual investment managers, with the assistance of the Company’s investment consultant, is monitored on a quarterly basis and is reviewed at least annually relative to the objectives and guidelines as stated in the Company’s investment policy statement.

The Company did not make a contribution to the plan in the first three months of 2023 or 2022.

Employee Stock Ownership Plan

On January 1, 2019, the Bank established an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”) to provide Company stock to eligible employees. The plan is a tax-qualified retirement plan for the benefit of Bank employees. On January 16, 2019, the Company granted a loan to the ESOP for the purchase of 436,425 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $10.00 per share. The loan obtained by the ESOP from the Company is payable annually over 20 years at a rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate, reset annually on January 1st (7.50% at January 1, 2023). Loan payments are funded by cash contributions from the Bank. The loan is secured by the shares purchased, which are held in a suspense account for allocation among participants as the loan is repaid. The balance of the ESOP loan at March 31, 2023 was $3,741. Contributions are allocated to eligible participants on the basis of compensation, subject to federal tax limits. The number of shares committed to be released annually is 21,821 through 2039.

Shares held by the ESOP include the following:


	March 31,	December 31,
	2023	2022
Allocated	87,284	65,463
Committed to be allocated	5,454	21,821
Unallocated	343,687	349,141
Paid out to participants	(4,376)	(4,376)
Total shares	432,049	432,049

The fair value of unallocated shares was $2,629 at March 31, 2023.

Total compensation expense recognized in connection with the ESOP for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 was $50 and $58, respectively.

Share-Based Compensation Plan

On May 26, 2020, stockholders of the Company approved the 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “EIP”). The EIP authorizes the issuance to participants of up to 763,743 shares of Rhinebeck Bancorp common stock pursuant to grants of incentive and non-qualified stock options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units. Of this number, the maximum number of shares of Rhinebeck Bancorp common stock that may be issued under the EIP pursuant to the exercise of stock options is 545,531 shares, and the maximum number of shares of Rhinebeck Bancorp common stock that may be issued as restricted stock awards or restricted stock units is 218,212 shares. These amounts represented 4.90% and 1.96%, respectively, of the number of shares of common stock issued in the stock offering of Rhinebeck Bancorp, including the shares issued to Rhinebeck Bancorp, MHC.

Pursuant to terms of the EIP, on August 25, 2020, the Board of Directors granted restricted stock and stock options to employees and directors. All of the awards vest annually over a three-year period from the date of the grant and the term of each option is ten years. As of March 31, 2023, there were 102,813 stock options and 49,444 restricted stock awards that remain available for future grants.

(Dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)

The fair value of each option granted under the EIP is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes Option-Pricing Model. The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of a peer group of comparable SEC-reporting bank holding companies. The dividend yield assumption is based on the Company’s expectation of dividend payouts. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the date of grant. The Company has elected to recognize forfeitures as they occur.

A summary of options under the 2020 EIP as of March 31, 2023 is presented below:


		Weighted -		Weighted-Average
	Number of	Average		Remaining Contractual
	Shares	Exercise Price		Term (in Years)
Options outstanding at beginning of year	437,930	$	6.62	7.66
Granted	-		-	-
Exercised	-		-	-
Forfeited	(667)		6.57	-
Options outstanding at March 31, 2023	437,263	$	6.62	7.40
Options exercisable at March 31, 2023	290,126	$	6.62	7.40

At March 31, 2023, the aggregate intrinsic value of the stock options outstanding, which fluctuates based on changes in the fair market value of the Company’s stock, was $456. The aggregate intrinsic value represents the total pre-tax intrinsic value (i.e., the difference between the Company’s closing stock price on the last trading day of period and the weighted-average exercise price, multiplied by the number of shares) that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options on March 31, 2023.

As of March 31, 2023, there was $101 of unrecognized compensation cost related to the nonvested stock options granted under the 2020 EIP. The cost is expected to be recognized over a remaining period of 0.42 years.

The following table summarizes the Company’s restricted stock activity for the three months ended March 31, 2023:


			Weighted-Average
	Number		Grant Date

9. Leases

As of March 31, 2023, the Company leased real estate for seven branch offices and two administrative offices under various lease agreements. All of our leases are classified as operating leases.

The calculated amount of the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are impacted by the length of the lease term and the discount rate used to present value the minimum lease payments. The Company’s leases have maturities which range from 2024 to 2041, some of which include lessee options to extend the lease term. If the Company considers the exercising of a renewal option to be reasonably certain, the Company will include the extended term in the calculation of the right-of-use asset and lease liability. The weighted average remaining life of the lease terms for these leases was 11.4 years and 11.6 years as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company used its incremental borrowing rate, the rate of interest to borrow on a collateralized basis for a similar term, at the lease commencement date. The Company utilized a weighted average discount rate of 2.58% in determining the lease liability as of both March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, total operating lease costs were $178 and $195, respectively, and were included in occupancy and other expense. Deferred rent liability was $95 and $105 at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The right-of-use asset, included in other assets, was $6,750 and $6,896 and the corresponding lease liability, included in accrued expenses and other liabilities, was $6,750 and $6,896 as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Future minimum payments for operating leases with initial or remaining terms of one year or more as of March 31, 2023 were as follows:


Years ending December 31:
2023	$	571
2024		764
2025		739
2026		720
2027		676
Thereafter		4,394
Total future minimum lease payments		7,864

10. Commitments and Contingencies and Derivatives

Legal Matters

The Company is involved in various legal proceedings which have arisen in the normal course of business. Management believes that resolution of these matters will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

Employment Agreements

The Company has entered into employment agreements with certain officers. The agreements provide for base salaries and incentive compensation based on performance criteria outlined in the agreements. The agreements also provide for insurance and various other benefits.

Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk

In the normal course of business, the Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include standby letters of credit and commitments to extend credit, which include new loan commitments, undisbursed portions of construction loans and other lines of credit and loans sold with recourse. We are obligated under a recourse provision associated with certain first mortgage renovation loans sold in the secondary market. These financial instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the statements of financial condition. The contractual amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Company has in particular classes of financial instruments.

On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13 and implemented the CECL methodology for allowance for credit losses which requires the measurement of expected lifetime credit losses for unfunded commitments that are considered off-balance sheet credit exposures.

The ACL on unfunded commitments is management’s estimate of expected credit losses over the expected contractual term (or life) in which the Company is exposed to credit risk via a contractual obligation to extend credit unless that obligation is unconditionally cancellable by the Company. For each portfolio, estimated loss rates and funding factors are applied to the corresponding balance of unfunded commitments. For each portfolio, the estimated loss rates applied to unfunded commitments are the same quantitative and qualitative loss rates applied to the corresponding on-balance sheet amounts in determining the ACL on loans. The estimated funding factor applied to unfunded commitments represents the likelihood that the funding will occur and is based upon the Company’s average historical utilization rate for each portfolio. As a result of adopting the CECL standard, the Company recognized an increase in the ACL on unfunded commitments of $221 on January 1, 2023.

Financial instruments whose contract amounts represent off-balance sheet credit risk are as follows:


	March 31,		December 31,
	2023		2022
Commitments to extend credit summarized as follows:
Future loan commitments	$	5,973	$	3,815
Undisbursed construction loans		33,989		30,274
Undisbursed home equity lines of credit		9,692		9,561
Undisbursed commercial and other line of credit		91,318		77,719
Standby letters of credit		5,244		4,571
Loans sold with recourse		726		276
Total	$	146,942	$	126,216

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Since these commitments could expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but may include residential and commercial property, deposits and securities.

Activity in the Company’s ACL for unfunded commitments for the three months ended March 31, 2023 is summarized in the table below and included in accrued expenses and other liabilities. The Adoption of the CECL Standard row presents adjustments recorded on January 1, 2023 through retained earnings.

Interest Rate Swaps

The Company enters into interest rate swaps that allow commercial loan customers to effectively convert a variable-rate loan agreement to a fixed-rate loan agreement. Under these agreements, the Company simultaneously enters into a variable-rate loan and interest rate swap agreements with a customer. The Company then enters into a corresponding and offsetting swap agreement with a third party to hedge its exposure created by the customer agreements. The interest rate swaps with both the customers and third parties are not designated as hedges under FASB ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and are marked to market through earnings. The fair values of the swaps are recorded as both an asset and a liability, in other assets and other liabilities, respectively, in equal amounts for these transactions. The accrued interest receivable and payable of $69 and $56 related to our swaps is recorded in other assets and other liabilities as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Summary information regarding these derivatives is presented below:


	March 31,			December 31,
	2023			2022
Notational amount	$	32,436		$	26,541
Fair value	$	3,282		$	3,578
Weighted average pay rates		4.10	%		3.69	%
Weighted average receive rates		6.80	%		6.30	%
Weighted average maturity (in years)		8.81			8.79

Number of Contracts		8			7

Not included in the table above are seven contracted forward rate swaps with a notional value of $67,411 and a fair value of $2,716 with effective dates at various points in 2023 and 2024. These forward swaps have a fixed weighted average pay rate of 5.19% and the related weighted average adjustable receive rates will be determined at the time the forward swaps become effective.

11. Regulatory Matters

The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank’s assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items, as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the tables below) of total, common equity Tier 1 and Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined) and of Tier I capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). Management believes, as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, that the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

The most recent notification from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) categorized the Bank as “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework. To be categorized as well capitalized, the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, common equity Tier 1, Tier I risk-based and Tier I leverage ratios as set forth in the table below. There are no conditions or events since then, which management believes have changed the Bank’s category.

The Bank’s actual capital amounts and ratios were:

12. Fair Value

The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. A description of the valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value and for estimating fair value for financial and non-financial instruments not recorded at fair value, is set forth below.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Available for Sale Securities

Where quoted prices are available in an active market for identical securities, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 securities include marketable equity securities and U.S. Treasury obligations. If quoted prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models (i.e., matrix pricing) or quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics and are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. Examples of such instruments include government agency bonds, mortgage-backed securities and municipal bonds. Level 3 securities include securities for which significant unobservable inputs are utilized. Available for sale securities are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis.

FHLB Stock

The carrying value of FHLB stock approximates fair value based on the redemption provisions of the FHLB.

Loans

Loans receivable are carried at cost. For variable rate loans which reprice frequently carrying values are a reasonable estimate of fair values, adjusted for credit losses inherent in the portfolios. The fair value of fixed rate loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the year end rates, estimated using local market data, at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities, adjusted for credit losses inherent in the portfolios. The Company does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis. However, from time to time, nonrecurring fair value adjustments to collateral-dependent individually analyzed loans are recorded to reflect partial write-downs based on the observable market price or current appraised value of collateral.

Other Real Estate Owned

Other real estate owned represents real estate acquired through foreclosure and is carried at fair value less estimated selling costs. Fair value is based upon independent market prices, appraised values of the collateral or management’s estimation of the value of the collateral. These assets are included as Level 3 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is utilized in the fair value measurements.

Mortgage Servicing Rights

The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income. Mortgage servicing rights are carried at the lower of amortized cost or estimated fair value and are included in other assets on the consolidated statements of financial condition.

(Dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)

Deposits

Deposit liabilities are carried at cost. The fair value of NOW, savings and money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of time certificates of deposit is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities estimated using local market data to a schedule of aggregated expected maturities on such deposits.

Mortgagors’ Escrow Accounts

The fair value is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on deposited escrow accounts of similarly expected maturities.

Advances from the FHLB

The fair value of the advances is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies current FHLB interest rates for advances of similar maturity to a schedule of maturities of such advances.

Subordinated Debt

Based on the floating rate characteristic of these instruments, the carrying value is considered to approximate fair value.

Off-Balance-Sheet Instruments

Fair values for off-balance-sheet lending commitments are based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standings. Such amounts are not significant.

Loan Level Interest Rate Swaps

The fair value is based on settlement values adjusted for credit risks associated with the counterparties and the Company and observable market interest rate curves.

The following tables detail the assets carried at fair value and measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 and indicate the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized by the Company to determine the fair value:


			Quoted Prices in

Total	$	319	$	—	$	—	$	319

Loans that were individually analyzed using the fair value of the collateral had recorded investments of $1,176 and $428 with valuation allowances of $749 and $109 resulting in fair values of $427 and $319 at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The valuation allowance represents specific allocations to the allowance for credit losses.

The following table presents additional quantitative information about assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and for which the Company has utilized Level 3 inputs to determine fair value:


	Quantitative Information About Level 3 Fair Value Measurements
	Fair Value		Valuation		Unobservable		Range
	Estimate		Techniques		Input		(Weighted Average)

	March 31, 2023
Individually analyzed loans, with specific reserves	$	427	Appraisal of collateral	⁽¹⁾	Liquidation expenses	⁽³⁾	0% to 6%

	December 31, 2022
Impaired loans	$	319	Appraisal of collateral	⁽¹⁾	Liquidation expenses	⁽³⁾	0% to 6%
					Appraisal adjustments	⁽²⁾	0% to 20%

(1)	Fair value is generally through independent appraisals of the underlying collateral that generally include various level 3 inputs which are not identifiable.

(2)	Appraisals may be adjusted by management for qualitative factors such as economic conditions and estimated liquidation expenses. The range of liquidation expenses and other appraisal adjustments are presented as a percent of the appraised value.

(3)	Estimated costs to sell.

The estimated fair value amounts for 2023 and 2022 have been measured as of their respective reporting dates and have not been reevaluated or updated for purposes of these financial statements subsequent to those respective dates. As such, the estimated fair values of these financial instruments subsequent to the respective reporting dates may be different than amounts reported at each year-end.

The information presented should not be interpreted as an estimate of the fair value of the entire Company since a fair value calculation is only required for a limited portion of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Due to the wide range of valuation techniques and the degree of subjectivity used in making the estimates, comparisons between the Company’s disclosures and those of other companies may not be meaningful.

14. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share represent income available to common stockholders divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed in a manner similar to that of basic earnings per share except that the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding is increased to include the number of incremental shares (computed using the treasury method) that would have been outstanding if all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents (such as options) were issued during the period. Unearned ESOP shares are not deemed outstanding for earnings per share calculations.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our most significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements. Certain of these accounting policies require management to use significant judgment and estimates, which can have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities, and we consider these policies to be our critical accounting estimates. The judgment and assumptions made are based upon historical experience, future forecasts, or other factors that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Because of the nature of the judgment and assumptions, actual results could differ from estimates, which could have a material effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, also known as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) standard, which created material changes to the existing critical accounting policy that existed at December 31, 2022. Effective January 1, 2023, the significant accounting policy which was considered to be the most critical in preparing the Company’s consolidated financial statements is the determination of the allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) on loans.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The Company's allowance for credit losses is its estimate of credit losses currently expected in the loan portfolio, on unfunded lending commitments, or in its available-for-sale securities portfolio over the expected life of those assets. While these estimates are based on substantive methods for determining the required allowance, actual outcomes may differ significantly from estimated results, especially when determining required allowances for larger, complex commercial credits or unfunded lending commitments to commercial borrowers. Consumer loans, including single family residential real estate, are individually smaller and generally behave in a similar manner, and loss estimates for these credits are considered more predictable. Additionally, the Company estimates the allowance for credit losses as a calculation of expected lifetime credit losses utilizing a forward-looking forecast of macroeconomic conditions, which may differ significantly from actual results. Further discussion of the methodology used in establishing the allowance is provided in Note 3 and Note 10 to the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-Q and in “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Terms of Critical Accounting Policies” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 23, 2023.

Comparison of Financial Condition at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022

Total Assets. Total assets were $1.35 billion at March 31, 2023 as compared to $1.34 billion at December 31, 2022, reflecting an increase of $15.4 million, or 1.2%. The increase was primarily related to increases in net loans receivable of $10.4 million and an increase in cash and cash equivalents of $4.8 million.

Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents increased $4.8 million, or 15.2%, to $36.1 million at March 31, 2023 from $31.4 million at December 31, 2022 primarily due to an increase in deposits held at the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York with excess funds from increased Federal Home Loan Bank advances.

Investment Securities Available for Sale. Investment securities available for sale decreased $1.5 million, or 0.7%, to $222.2 million at March 31, 2023 from $223.7 million at December 31, 2022, primarily due to principal paydowns of $4.2 million partially offset by a decrease of $2.8 million in unrealized market losses.

Net Loans. Total net loans receivable were $1.00 billion at March 31, 2023, an increase of $10.4 million, or 1.0%, as compared to $994.4 million at December 31, 2022. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $25.8 million, or 7.0%, in our commercial real estate portfolio, offset by a $13.3 million, or 2.9%, decrease in indirect automobile loans. The increase in commercial real estate was primarily due to the closing of two large loans, secured by an auto dealership and a retail shopping center, during the quarter. The decrease in our indirect automobile portfolio was due to a strategic decision to reduce loan growth and decrease the automobile loan portfolio as a percentage of our balance sheet. Non-accrual loans and non-performing assets increased $1.1 million, or 25.9%, to $5.6 million at March 31, 2023 from $4.4 million at December 31, 2022. The Company had no other real estate owned at the end of either period.

Federal Home Loan Bank Stock. Federal Home Loan Bank Stock increased $2.2 million, or 67.3%, to $5.5 million at March 31, 2023, primarily due to the purchase of additional shares to facilitate additional borrowing activity.

Total Liabilities. Total liabilities increased $12.8 million, or 1.0%, to $1.24 billion at March 31, 2023, primarily due to an increase in advances from the FHLB of $48.7 million partially offset by a decrease in deposits of $36.4 million.

Deposits. Deposits decreased $36.4 million, or 3.2%, to $1.09 billion at March 31, 2023 from $1.13 billion at December 31, 2022. Interest bearing accounts decreased $22.6 million, or 2.7%, to $823.8 million while non-interest bearing balances decreased $13.8 million, or 4.9%, finishing the first three months of 2023 at $269.7 million. Of the interest bearing accounts, transaction accounts including NOW, savings and money market accounts decreased $90.3 million, or 14.3%, which was partially offset by an increase in time deposits of $67.7 million, or 31.3%. The continued growth in time deposits was primarily due to depositors seeking higher interest rates, which contributed to the decrease in non-interest bearing and lower interest-bearing deposits. Deposits were also impacted as some depositors withdrew funds in reaction to the highly publicized bank failures in the first quarter of 2023.

Stockholders’ Equity. Stockholders' equity increased $2.6 million, or 2.4%, to $110.7 million at March 31, 2023, primarily due to a $2.2 million decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss reflecting valuation changes in our available-for-sale securities due to current financial market conditions. Net income for the quarter of $798,000 was offset by a reduction in retained earnings of $633,000, as the Company adopted the current expected credit loss standard on January 1, 2023. At March 31, 2023, the Company’s book value per share was $9.81 and the Company’s ratio of stockholders’ equity-to-total assets was 8.19%. At December 31, 2022, the Company’s book value per share was $9.58 and the Company’s ratio of stockholders’ equity-to-total assets was 8.09%. Unearned common stock held by the Bank’s employee stock ownership plan was $3.4 million and $3.5 million at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 and 2022

Net Income. Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2023 decreased $1.3 million, or 61.1%, to $798,000, or $0.07 per diluted share, compared to net income of $2.1 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Interest and dividend income increased $3.6 million, or 33.1%, interest expense increased $3.9 million, or 450.9%, the provision for credit losses increased $793,000, non-interest income decreased $335,000, or 19.6%, non-interest expense increased $98,000, or 1.1%, and taxes decreased $221,000, or 49.6%, between comparable quarters.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income decreased $250,000, or 2.5%, to $9.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to $10.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. The ratio of average interest-earning assets to average interest-bearing liabilities decreased 6.2% to 136.11% while our net interest margin decreased by 21 basis points to 3.21% when comparing the first quarter of 2023 to the same period in 2022.

Interest Income. Interest income increased $3.6 million, or 33.1%, to $14.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $11.0 million for the comparable 2022 period. Both interest and fees on loans and interest and dividends on securities increased as the yields increased due to the rising interest rate environment. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the average balance of loans increased $143.1 million, while the average balance of available for sale securities decreased $63.6 million when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022. The average yield on loans increased 66 basis points, while the average yield on available for sale securities increased 60 basis points. The overall average yield of interest-earning assets increased by 104 basis points to 4.75% and the overall average balance of interest-earning assets increased $47.8 million, or 4.0%.

Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $3.9 million, or 450.9%, from $860,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, to $4.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2023. The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased 168 basis points to 2.10% for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, due to the current interest rate environment, while the average balance of total interest-bearing liabilities increased $90.2 million, or 10.9%, to $916.3 million. Between the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2023, the average cost of Federal Home Loan Bank advances increased by 253 basis points, while the average balance increased by $43.4 million. An increase of $93.3 million, or 62.1%, in the average balance of our certificates of deposit was partially offset by a decrease of $47.0 million, or 7.3%, in the average balance of our core deposits (consisting of savings, NOW and money market accounts) as depositors sought higher yields in the increasing interest rate environment.

Provision for Credit Losses. We recorded a provision for credit losses of $1.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, which represented a $793,000 increase from $221,000 for the prior year comparable quarter. The increase to the provision for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was attributable to an increase in loan balances, higher charge-offs, developing signs of declining economic conditions, the impact of adopting the new CECL methodology, and one specific loss reserve totaling $710,000 taken on a $975,000 commercial loan.

Net charge-offs increased $333,000 from net charge-offs of $80,000 for the first quarter of 2022 to net charge-offs of $413,000 for the first quarter of 2023. The increases were primarily due to a $143,000 recovery of one residential loan in the first quarter of 2022 and increased net charge-offs of $227,000 in our indirect automobile portfolio in the first three months of 2023. The percentage of overdue account balances to total loans decreased to 1.54% as of March 31, 2023 from 2.29% as of December 31, 2022, while our non-performing assets increased $1.1 million to $5.6 million at March 31, 2023.

Table of Contents

Non-Interest Income. Non-interest income totaled $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, a decrease of $335,000, or 19.6%, from the comparable period in the prior year, due primarily to a decrease in the net gain on sales of mortgage loans as activity decreased due to fewer originations in the increasing interest rate environment coupled with a strategic decision to hold new production in our portfolio instead of selling these loans. Gain on sales of mortgage loans decreased $390,000, or 97.5%, compared to the prior year quarter as we sold $1.1 million of residential mortgage loans in the first quarter of 2023 as compared to $10.9 million in the first quarter of 2022.

Non-Interest Expense. For the first quarter of 2023, non-interest expense totaled $9.2 million, an increase of $98,000, or 1.1%, over the comparable 2022 period. The increase was primarily due to the growth in other non-interest expense of $354,000, or 27.6%, primarily due to a decrease in deferred commitments and inflationary pressures on our service contracts as well as an increase in insurance expenses of $100,000, or 54.9%. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in salaries and benefits of $279,000 as the number of employees decreased when the Company made the difficult decision to layoff approximately 5% of its workforce in the first quarter of 2023.

Income Taxes. Income taxes decreased by $221,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to the same three month period in 2022 as our income before income taxes decreased. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was 21.99% compared to 17.85% for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Rate/Volume Analysis

The following table presents the effects of changing rates and volumes on our net interest income for the period indicated (in thousands). The rate column shows the effects attributable to changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior volume). The volume column shows the effects attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior rate). The net column represents the sum of the prior columns. For purposes of this table, changes attributable to both rate and volume, which cannot be segregated, have been allocated proportionately based on the changes due to rate and the changes due to volume. The Company does not have any excludable out-of-period items or adjustments.

Management of Market Risk

General. The majority of our assets and liabilities are monetary in nature. Consequently, our most significant form of market risk is interest rate risk. Our assets, consisting primarily of loans, have longer maturities than our liabilities, consisting primarily of deposits and Federal Home Loan Bank advances. As a result, a principal part of our business strategy is to manage our exposure to changes in market interest rates. Accordingly, the Board of Directors maintains a management-level Asset/Liability Management Committee (the “ALCO”), which takes primary responsibility for reviewing the Company’s asset/liability management process and related procedures, establishing and monitoring reporting systems and ascertaining that established asset/liability strategies are being maintained. On at least a quarterly basis, the ALCO reviews and reports asset/liability management outcomes from various modeling scenarios. This committee also implements any changes in strategies and reviews the performance of any specific asset/liability management actions that have been implemented.

We manage our interest rate risk to minimize the exposure of our earnings and capital to changes in market interest rates. We have implemented the following strategies to manage our interest rate risk: originating loans with adjustable interest rates or with shorter terms, promoting core deposit products, and adjusting the interest rates and maturities of funding sources, as necessary. By following these strategies, we believe that we are better positioned to react to changes in market interest rates.

Table of Contents

Net Economic Value Simulation. We analyze the Bank’s sensitivity to changes in interest rates through a net economic value of equity (“EVE”) model. EVE represents the present value of the expected cash flows from our assets less the present value of the expected cash flows arising from our liabilities adjusted for the value of off-balance sheet contracts. The EVE ratio represents the dollar amount of our EVE divided by the present value of our total assets for a given interest rate scenario. EVE attempts to quantify our economic value using a discounted cash flow methodology while the EVE ratio reflects that value as a form of capital ratio. We estimate what our EVE would be at a specific date. We then forecast what the EVE might be at the same date throughout a series of interest rate scenarios representing immediate and permanent, parallel shifts in the yield curve. We currently calculate the EVE under scenarios where interest rates increase 100, 200, 300 and 400 basis points from current market rates and where interest rates decrease 100, 200, 300 and 400 basis points from current market rates.

The following table presents the estimated changes in the Bank’s EVE that would result from changes in market interest rates at March 31, 2023 (dollars in thousands).

Certain shortcomings are inherent in the methodologies used in the above interest rate risk measurements. Modeling changes require making certain assumptions that may or may not reflect the manner in which actual yields and costs respond to changes in market interest rates. The above table assumes that the composition of our interest-sensitive assets and liabilities existing at the date indicated remains constant uniformly across the yield curve regardless of the duration or repricing of specific assets and liabilities. Accordingly, although the table provides an indication of our interest rate risk exposure at a point in time, such measurements are not intended to and do not provide a precise forecast of the effect of changes in market interest rates on our EVE and will likely differ from actual results.

Liquidity Management

We maintain liquid assets at levels we consider adequate to meet both our short-term and long-term liquidity needs. We adjust our liquidity levels to fund deposit outflows, repay our borrowings and to fund loan commitments. We also adjust liquidity as appropriate to meet asset and liability management objectives.

Our primary sources of liquidity are deposits, loan sales, amortization and prepayment of loans and mortgage-backed securities, maturities, sales and calls of investment securities and other short-term investments, earnings and funds provided from operations, as well as access to FHLB advances and other borrowings. While scheduled principal repayments on loans and mortgage-backed securities are a relatively predictable source of funds, deposit flows and loan and security sales and prepayments are greatly influenced by market interest rates, economic conditions, and rates offered by our competition. We set the interest rates on our deposits to maintain a desired level of total deposits.

As reported in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, our cash flows are classified for financial reporting purposes as operating, investing, or financing cash flows. Net cash provided by operating activities was $3.1 million and $7.5 million for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. These amounts differ from our net income because of a variety of cash receipts and disbursements that did not affect net income for the respective periods. Net cash used for investing activities was $9.6 million and $19.4 for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2023 and

2022, respectively, principally reflecting our investment security and loan activities in the respective periods. Cash outlays for the purchase of securities decreased from $27.2 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2022 to $0 for the period ended March 31, 2023. Deposit and borrowing cash flows have traditionally comprised most of our financing activities which resulted in net cash provided of $11.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2023, and $7.1 million in the comparable 2022 period.

At March 31, 2023, we had the following main sources of availability of liquid funds and borrowings:

The Bank has access to a preapproved secured line of credit with the FHLB which totaled $675,466 at March 31, 2023. Additional funds available under this line are not included in the table above as we do not consider it to be as readily accessible as the funds above and other facilities available to us at the FRB under their Bank Term Funding Program will offer more borrowing availability on pledged collateral.

The following table summarizes our main contractual obligations and other commitments to make future payments as of March 31, 2023. The amount of the obligations presented in the table reflect principal amounts only and exclude the amount of interest we are obligated to pay. Also excluded from the table are a number of obligations to be settled in cash. These excluded items are reflected in our consolidated balance sheet and include deposits with no stated maturity, trade payables, and accrued interest payable.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices

The financial statements and related notes of Rhinebeck Bancorp, Inc. have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. GAAP generally requires the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without consideration for changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of our operations. Unlike industrial companies, our assets and liabilities are primarily monetary in nature. As a result, changes in market interest rates have a greater impact on performance than the effects of inflation.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

For information regarding market risk, see “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operation- Management of Market Risk.”

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of March 31, 2023. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

We adopted the new guidance under Accounting Standards Update 2016-13, (ASC Topic 326) “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” also known as Current Expected Credit Losses, or CECL, on January 1, 2023. The Company implemented new accounting processes and procedures, which required us to update our internal controls over accounting for the allowance for credit losses, and the related disclosures under the new guidance. As a result of the adoption of CECL, we implemented new internal controls designed to mitigate the risks associated with these new processes and to provide assurance at a reasonable level of the fair presentation of our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. There were no other changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2023, 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

We are periodically involved in legal proceedings, such as employment related claims against us, claims to enforce liens, foreclosure or condemnation proceedings on properties in which we hold security interests, claims involving the making and servicing of real property loans, and other issues incidental to our business. As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we are not a party to any pending legal proceedings that we believe would have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

ITEM 1A. Risk Factors

In addition to the other information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the following risk factor represents a material update and addition to the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. The risk factors set forth below also identify important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of us.

Recent bank industry events involving financial institution failures may adversely affect our business and the market price of our common stock.

Recent developments and events in the financial services industry, including the failures of Silicon Valley Bank, Signature Bank and First Republic Bank and the voluntary liquidation of Silvergate Bank, have resulted in decreased confidence in banks among depositors, other counterparties and investors, as well as significant disruption, volatility and reduced valuations of equity and other securities of banks in the capital markets. These events have occurred against the backdrop of a rapidly rising interest rate environment which, among other things, has resulted in unrealized losses in longer duration securities and loans held by banks, more competition for bank deposits and may increase the risk of a potential recession. These events and developments could materially and adversely impact our business or financial condition, including through potential liquidity pressures, reduced net interest margins, and potential increased credit losses. These recent events and developments have, and could continue to, adversely impact the market price and volatility of our common stock. These recent events may also result in changes to laws or regulations governing banks and bank holding companies or result in the impositions of restrictions through supervisory or enforcement activities, including higher capital requirements, which could have a material impact on our businesses. The cost of resolving the recent failures may prompt the FDIC to increase its premiums above the recently increased levels or to issue additional special assessments.

Lawmakers’ failure to address the federal debt ceiling in a timely manner, downgrades of the U.S. credit rating and uncertain credit and financial market conditions may affect the stability of securities issued or guaranteed by the federal government, which may affect the valuation or liquidity of our investment securities portfolio and increase future borrowing costs.

As a result of uncertain political, credit and financial market conditions, including the potential consequences of the federal government defaulting on its obligations for a period of time due to federal debt ceiling limitations or other unresolved political issues, investments in financial instruments issued or guaranteed by the federal government pose credit default and liquidity risks. Given that future deterioration in the U.S. credit and financial markets is a possibility, no assurance can be made that losses or significant deterioration in the fair value of our U.S. government issued or guaranteed investments will not occur. At March 31, 2023, we had approximately $22.8 million and $142.5 million in U.S. government agency securities and residential mortgage-backed securities issued or guaranteed by government-sponsored enterprises, respectively, and $38.3 million in U.S. treasury securities. Downgrades to the U.S. credit rating could affect the stability of securities issued or guaranteed by the federal government and the valuation or liquidity of our portfolio of such investment securities, and could result in our counterparties requiring additional collateral for our borrowings. Further, unless and until U.S. political, credit and financial market conditions have been sufficiently resolved or stabilized, it may increase our future borrowing costs.
