ITEM 1 BUSINESS

A. General Development of Business and History

On January 7, 1983, Penns Woods Bancorp, Inc. (the “Corporation”) was incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania as a bank holding company. In connection with the organization of the Corporation, Jersey Shore State Bank ("JSSB"), a Pennsylvania state-chartered bank, became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Corporation. On June 1, 2013, the Corporation acquired Luzerne Bank ("Luzerne") with Luzerne operating as a subsidiary of the Corporation (JSSB and Luzerne are collectively referred to as the "Banks"). The Corporation’s three other wholly-owned subsidiaries are Woods Real Estate Development Company, Inc., Woods Investment Company, Inc., and United Insurance Solutions, LLC. The Corporation’s business has consisted primarily of managing and supervising the Banks, and its principal source of income has been dividends paid by the Banks and Woods Investment Company, Inc.

The Banks are engaged in commercial and retail banking which includes the acceptance of time, savings, and demand deposits, the funding of commercial, consumer, and mortgage loans, and safe deposit services. Utilizing a branch office network, ATMs, Internet, and telephone banking delivery channels, the Banks deliver their products and services to the communities they reside in.

In October 2000, JSSB acquired The M Group, Inc. D/B/A The Comprehensive Financial Group (“The M Group”). The M Group, which operates as a subsidiary of JSSB, offers insurance and securities brokerage services. Securities are offered by The M Group through Cetera Financial Group, a registered broker-dealer.

Neither the Corporation nor the Banks anticipate that compliance with environmental laws and regulations will have any material effect on capital expenditures, earnings, or their competitive position. The Banks are not dependent on a single customer or a few customers, the loss of whom would have a material effect on the business of the Banks.

As of December 31, 2022, JSSB employed 235 persons, Luzerne employed 63 persons, and The M Group employed 4 persons in either a full-time or part-time capacity. The Corporation does not have any employees. The principal officers of the Banks also serve as officers of the Corporation.

Woods Investment Company, Inc., a Delaware holding company, maintains an investment portfolio that is managed for total return and to fund dividend payments by the Corporation.

Woods Real Estate Development Company, Inc. serves the Corporation through its acquisition and ownership of certain properties utilized by the Banks.

United Insurance Solutions, LLC offers property and casualty and auto insurance products within the Corporation's market footprint. The Corporation became the sole owner of United Insurance Solutions, LLC when it purchased the outstanding 20% minority interest on October 1, 2021.

We post publicly available reports required to be filed with the SEC on our website, www.pwod.com, as soon as reasonably practicable after filing such reports with the SEC. The required reports are available free of charge through our website. Information available on our website is not part of or incorporated by reference into this Report or any other report filed by this Corporation with the SEC.

B. Regulation and Supervision

The Corporation is a registered bank holding company and, as such is subject to the provisions of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “BHCA”) and to supervision and examination by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “FRB”). The Banks are also subject to the supervision and examination by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”), as their primary federal regulator and as the insurer of the Banks' deposits. The Banks are also regulated and examined by the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities (the “Department”).

The insurance activities of The M Group are subject to regulation by the insurance departments of the various states in which The M Group conducts business, including principally the Pennsylvania Department of Insurance. The securities brokerage activities of The M Group are subject to regulation by federal and state securities commissions.

Table of Contents

The insurance activities of United Insurance Solutions, LLC are subject to regulation by the Pennsylvania Department of Insurance.

The FRB has issued regulations under the BHCA that require a bank holding company to serve as a source of financial and managerial strength to its subsidiary banks. As a result, the FRB, pursuant to such regulations, may require the Corporation to stand ready to use its resources to provide adequate capital funds to the Banks during periods of financial stress or adversity. The BHCA requires the Corporation to secure the prior approval of the FRB before it can acquire all or substantially all of the assets of any bank, or acquire ownership or control of 5% or more of any voting shares of any bank. Such a transaction would also require approval of the Department.

A bank holding company is prohibited under the BHCA from engaging in, or acquiring direct or indirect control of, more than 5% of the voting shares of any company engaged in non-banking activities unless the FRB, by order or regulation, has found such activities to be so closely related to banking or managing or controlling banks as to be a proper incident thereto. Under the BHCA, the FRB has the authority to require a bank holding company to terminate any activity or relinquish control of a non-bank subsidiary (other than a non-bank subsidiary of a bank) upon the FRB’s determination that such activity or control constitutes a serious risk to the financial soundness and stability of any bank subsidiary of the bank holding company.

In July 2013, the federal bank regulatory agencies adopted revisions to the agencies’ capital adequacy guidelines and prompt corrective action rules, which were designed to enhance such requirements and implement the revised standards of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, commonly referred to as Basel III. The final rules generally implement higher minimum capital requirements, add a new common equity tier 1 capital requirement, and establish criteria that instruments must meet to be considered common equity tier 1 capital, additional tier 1 capital or tier 2 capital. The current minimum capital requirements are a common equity tier 1 capital ratio of 4.5% (6.5% to be considered “well capitalized”), a tier 1 capital ratio of 6.0%; (8.0% to be considered “well capitalized”), and a total capital ratio of 8.0% (10.0% to be considered “well capitalized”). In order to avoid limitations on capital distributions (including dividend payments and certain discretionary bonus payments to executive officers), as of January 1, 2019, a banking organization must hold a capital conservation buffer comprised of common equity tier 1 capital above its minimum risk-based capital requirements in an amount greater than 2.5% of total risk-weighted assets.

In addition to the risk-based capital guidelines, the FRB requires each bank holding company to comply with the leverage ratio, under which the bank holding company must maintain a minimum level of Tier 1 capital to average total consolidated assets of 4.0% (5.0% to be considered "well capitalized"). The Banks are subject to similar capital requirements adopted by the FDIC.

During 2018, the FRB raised the threshold of its "small bank holding company" exemption to the application of consolidated capital requirements for qualifying small bank holding companies from $1 billion to $3 billion of consolidated assets. Consequently, qualifying bank holding companies having less than $3 billion of consolidated assets are not subject to the consolidated capital requirements unless otherwise directed by the FRB.

Dividends

Federal and state laws impose limitations on the payment of dividends by the Banks. The Pennsylvania Banking Code and the policies of the FDIC and the Department generally encourage the Banks to pay dividends from current net income and retained earnings. The Pennsylvania Banking Code restricts the availability of capital funds for payment of dividends by the Banks to their accumulated net earnings.

In addition to the dividend restrictions described above, the banking regulators have the authority to prohibit or to limit the payment of dividends by the Banks if, in the banking regulator’s opinion, payment of a dividend would constitute an unsafe or unsound practice in light of the financial condition of the Banks.

Under Pennsylvania law, the Corporation may not pay a dividend, if, after giving effect thereto, it would be unable to pay its debts as they become due in the usual course of business and, after giving effect to the dividend, the total assets of the Corporation would be less than the sum of its total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed, if the Corporation were to be dissolved at the time of distribution, to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of shareholders whose rights are superior to those receiving the dividend.

It is also the policy of the FRB that a bank holding company generally may only pay dividends on common stock out of net income available to common shareholders over the past twelve months and only if the prospective rate of earnings retention appears consistent with a bank holding company’s capital needs, asset quality, and overall financial condition. A bank holding company also should not maintain a dividend level that places undue pressure on the capital of such institution’s subsidiaries, or that may undermine the bank holding company’s ability to serve as a source of strength for such subsidiaries.

C. Regulation of the Banks

The Banks are highly regulated by the FDIC and the Department. The laws that such agencies enforce limit the specific types of businesses in which the Banks may engage, and the products and services that the Banks may offer to customers. Generally, these limitations are designed to protect the insurance fund of the FDIC and/or the customers of the Banks, and not the Banks or their shareholders. From time to time, various types of new federal and state legislation have been proposed that could result in additional regulation of, and restrictions on, the business of the Banks. It cannot be predicted whether any such legislation will be adopted or how such legislation would affect business of the Banks. As a consequence of the extensive regulation of commercial banking activities in the United States, the Banks' business is particularly susceptible to being affected by federal legislation and regulations that may increase the costs of doing business. Some of the major regulatory provisions that affect the business of the Banks are discussed briefly below.

Prompt Corrective Action

The FDIC has specified the levels at which an insured institution will be considered “well-capitalized,” “adequately capitalized,” “undercapitalized,” and “critically undercapitalized.” In the event an institution’s capital deteriorates to the “undercapitalized” category or below, the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (the “FDIA”) and FDIC regulations prescribe an increasing amount of regulatory intervention, including: (1) the institution of a capital restoration plan by a bank and a guarantee of the plan by a parent institution and liability for civil money damages for failure to fulfill its commitment on that guarantee; and (2) the placement of a hold on increases in assets, number of branches, or lines of business. If capital has reached the significantly or critically undercapitalized levels, further material restrictions can be imposed, including restrictions on interest payable on accounts, dismissal of management and (in critically undercapitalized situations) appointment of a receiver. For well-capitalized institutions, the FDIA provides authority for regulatory intervention where the institution is deemed to be engaging in unsafe or unsound practices or receives a less than satisfactory examination report rating for asset quality, management, earnings or liquidity.

Deposit Insurance

The FDIC maintains the Deposit Insurance Fund ("DIF") by assessing depository institutions an insurance premium. The FDIC insures deposit accounts up to $250,000 per depositor.

Under the FDIC's risk-based assessment system, deposit insurance assessments are based on each insured institution's total assets less tangible equity, thereby basing deposit insurance assessments on an institution’s total liabilities, not only insured deposits. Small banks (generally, those with less than $10 billion in assets) are assigned an individual rate based on a formula using financial data and CAMELS (capital adequacy, asset quality, management, earnings, liquidity, and sensitivity) ratings. A bank’s assessment is calculated by multiplying its individual assessment rate by its assessment base (average consolidated total assets less average tangible equity), determined quarterly.

Federal Home Loan Bank System

The Banks are members of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh (the “FHLB”), which is one of 12 regional Federal Home Loan Banks. Each Federal Home Loan Bank serves as a reserve or central bank for its members within its assigned region. It is funded primarily from funds deposited by member institutions and proceeds from the sale of consolidated obligations of the Federal Home Loan Bank System. It makes loans to members (i.e., advances) in accordance with policies and procedures established by the board of directors of the Federal Home Loan Bank. At December 31, 2022, the Banks had $243,195,000 in FHLB advances.

As a member, the Banks are required to purchase and maintain stock in the FHLB. The amount of required stock varies based on the FHLB products utilized by the Banks and the amount of the products utilized. At December 31, 2022, the Banks had $18,666,000 in stock of the FHLB, which was in compliance with this requirement.

Other Legislation

The 2010 Dodd-Frank Act made significant changes to the bank regulatory structure and affects the lending, deposit, investment, trading and operating activities of financial institutions and their holding companies. The Dodd-Frank Act, among other things: (i) expands the authority of the FRB to examine bank holding companies and their subsidiaries, including insured depository institutions; (ii) requires a bank holding company to be well capitalized and well managed to receive approval of an interstate bank acquisition; (iii) provides mortgage reform provisions regarding a customer’s ability to pay and making more loans subject to provisions for higher-cost loans and new disclosures; (iv) creates the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau

Table of Contents

(the “CFPB”) that has rule making authority for a wide range of consumer protection laws that apply to all banks and has broad powers to supervise and enforce consumer protection laws; (v) introduces additional corporate governance and executive compensation requirements on public companies subject to the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, such as the Corporation; (vi) permits FDIC-insured banks to pay interest on business demand deposits; (vii) requires that holding companies and other companies that directly or indirectly control an insured depository institution serve as a source of financial strength to that institution; (viii) makes permanent the $250,000 limit for federal deposit insurance at all insured depository institutions; and (ix) permits national and state banks to establish interstate branches to the same extent as the branch host state allows establishment of in-state branches.

The Dodd-Frank Act also created a new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau with broad powers to supervise and enforce consumer protection laws. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has broad rule-making authority for a wide range of consumer protection laws that apply to all banks and savings institutions, including the authority to prohibit “unfair, deceptive or abusive” acts and practices. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has examination and enforcement authority over all banks and savings institutions with more than $10 billion in assets. Banks and savings institutions with $10 billion or less in assets such as the Banks will continue to be examined for compliance with the consumer laws by their primary bank regulators. The Dodd-Frank Act also weakens the federal preemption rules that have been applicable for national banks and federal savings associations, and gives state attorneys general the ability to enforce federal consumer protection laws.

Under the Bank Secrecy Act, a financial institution is required to have systems in place to detect certain types of transactions, based on the size and nature of the transaction. Financial institutions are generally required to report cash transactions involving more than $10,000 to the United States Treasury. In addition, financial institutions are required to file suspicious activity reports for transactions that involve more than $5,000 and that the financial institution knows, suspects or has reason to suspect, involves illegal funds, is designed to evade the requirements of the law, or has no lawful purpose.

Under the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act, commonly referred to as the “USA PATRIOT Act,” financial institutions are subject to prohibitions against specified financial transactions and account relationships, as well as enhanced due diligence standards intended to detect, and prevent, the use of the United States financial system for money laundering and terrorist financing activities. The Patriot Act requires financial institutions, including banks, to establish anti-money laundering programs, including employee training and independent audit requirements, meet minimum specified standards, follow minimum standards for customer identification and maintenance of customer identification records.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 was enacted to enhance penalties for accounting and auditing improprieties at publicly traded companies and to protect investors by improving the accuracy and reliability of corporate disclosures under the federal securities laws. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act generally applies to all companies, including the Corporation, that file or are required to file periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the Exchange Act. The legislation includes provisions, among other things, governing the services that can be provided by a public company’s independent auditors and the procedures for approving such services, requiring the chief executive officer and principal accounting officer to certify certain matters relating to the company’s periodic filings under the Exchange Act, requiring expedited filings of reports by insiders of their securities transactions and containing other provisions relating to insider conflicts of interest, increasing disclosure requirements relating to critical financial accounting policies and their application, increasing penalties for securities law violations, and creating a new public accounting oversight board, a regulatory body subject to SEC jurisdiction with broad powers to set auditing, quality control, and ethics standards for accounting firms. In response to the legislation, the national securities exchanges and NASDAQ, adopted new rules relating to certain governance matters, including the independence of members of a company’s audit committee as a condition to listing or continued listing.

Congress is often considering financial industry legislation, and the federal banking agencies routinely propose new regulations. The Corporation cannot predict how any new legislation, or new rules adopted by federal or state banking agencies, may affect the business of the Corporation and its subsidiaries in the future.

Environmental Laws

Environmentally related hazards have become a source of high risk and potential liability for financial institutions relating to their loans. Environmentally contaminated properties owned by an institution’s borrowers may result in a drastic reduction in the value of the collateral securing the institution’s loans to such borrowers, high environmental clean up costs to the borrower affecting its ability to repay the loans, the subordination of any lien in favor of the institution to a state or federal lien securing clean up costs, and liability to the institution for clean up costs if it forecloses on the contaminated property or becomes involved in the management of the borrower. The Corporation is not aware of any borrower who is currently subject to any

Table of Contents

environmental investigation or clean up proceeding which is likely to have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or results of operations of the Corporation.

Effect of Government Monetary Policies

The earnings of the Corporation are and will be affected by domestic economic conditions and the monetary and fiscal policies of the United States Government and its agencies. The monetary policies of the FRB have had, and will likely continue to have, an important impact on the operating results of commercial banks through its power to implement national monetary policy in order, among other things, to curb inflation or combat a recession. The FRB has a major effect upon the levels of bank loans, investments, and deposits through its open market operations in the United States Government securities and through its regulation of, among other things, the discount rate on borrowings by member banks and the reserve requirements against member bank deposits. It is not possible to predict the nature and impact of future changes in monetary and fiscal policies.

DESCRIPTION OF THE BANKS

History and Business

JSSB was incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania as a state bank in 1934 and became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Corporation on July 12, 1983. As of December 31, 2022, JSSB had total assets of $1,451,067,000; total shareholders’ equity of $109,758,000; and total deposits of $1,108,794,000. JSSB's deposits are insured by the FDIC for the maximum amount provided under current law.

Luzerne was acquired by the Corporation on June 1, 2013. As of December 31, 2022, Luzerne had total assets of $549,688,000; total shareholders’ equity of $55,708,000; and total deposits of $448,517,000. Luzerne's deposits are insured by the FDIC for the maximum amount provided under current law.

The Banks engage in business as commercial banks, doing business at locations in Lycoming, Clinton, Centre, Montour, Union, Blair, and Luzerne Counties, Pennsylvania. The Banks offer insurance, securities brokerage services, annuity and mutual fund investment products, and financial planning through the M Group.

Services offered by the Banks include accepting time, demand and savings deposits including Super NOW accounts, statement savings accounts, money market accounts, and fixed rate certificates of deposit. Their services also include making secured and unsecured business and consumer loans that include financing commercial transactions as well as construction and residential mortgage loans and revolving credit loans with overdraft protection.

The Banks' loan portfolio mix can be classified into three principal categories: commercial and agricultural, real estate, and consumer. Real estate loans can be further segmented into residential, commercial, and construction. Qualified borrowers are defined by our loan policy and our underwriting standards. Owner provided equity requirements range from 0% to 35%, depending on the collateral offered for the loan. Terms are generally restricted to 30 years or less with the exception of construction and land development, which are generally limited to one and five years, respectively. Real estate appraisals, property construction verifications, and site visitations comply with our loan policy and with industry regulatory standards.

Prospective residential mortgage customer’s repayment ability is determined from information contained in the application and recent income tax returns, or other verified income sources. Emphasis is on credit, employment, income, and residency verification. Broad hazard insurance is always required and flood insurance where applicable. In the case of construction mortgages, builders risk insurance is requested.

Agricultural loans for the purchase or improvement of real estate must meet the Banks' real estate underwriting criteria. Agricultural loans made for the purchase of equipment are usually payable in five years, but never more than ten, depending upon the useful life of the purchased asset. Minimum borrower equity ranges from 0% to 35% depending on the purpose. Livestock financing criteria depends upon the nature of the operation. Agricultural loans are also made for crop production purposes. Such loans are structured to repay within the production cycle and not carried over into a subsequent year.

Commercial loans are made for the acquisition and improvement of real estate, purchase of equipment, and for working capital purposes on a seasonal or revolving basis. General purpose working capital loans are also available with repayment expected within one year. Equipment loans are generally amortized over three to ten years. Insurance coverage with the Banks as loss payee is required, especially in the case where the equipment is rolling stock. It is also a general policy to collateralize non-real estate loans with the asset purchased and, depending upon loan terms, junior liens are filed on other available assets. Financial

Table of Contents

information required on all commercial mortgages includes the most current three years balance sheets and income statements and projections on income to be developed through the project. In the case of corporations and partnerships, the principals are often asked to personally guaranty the entity’s debt.

Seasonal and revolving lines of credit are offered for working capital purposes. Collateral for such a loan may vary but often includes the pledge of inventory and/or receivables. Drawing availability is usually 50% of inventory and 80% of eligible receivables. Eligible receivables are defined as invoices less than 90 days delinquent. Exclusive reliance is very seldom placed on such collateral; therefore, other lienable assets are also taken into the collateral pool. Where reliance is placed on inventory and accounts receivable, the applicant must provide financial information including agings on a specified basis. In addition, the guaranty of the principals is usually obtained.

Letter of credit availability is usually limited to standby or performance letters of credit where the customer is well known to the Banks. The credit criteria is the same as that utilized in making a direct loan. Collateral is obtained in most cases.

Consumer loan products include residential mortgages, home equity loans and lines, automobile financing, personal loans and lines of credit, overdraft and check lines. Our policy includes standards used in the industry on debt service ratios and terms are consistent with prudent underwriting standards and the use of proceeds. Verifications are made of employment and residency, along with credit history.

Second mortgages are confined to equity borrowing and home improvements. Terms are generally fifteen years or less. Loan to collateral value criteria is 90% or less and verifications are made to determine values. Automobile financing is generally restricted to five years and done on both an indirect and direct basis. The Banks, as a practice, do not floor plan and therefore do not discount dealer paper. Small loan requests are to accommodate personal needs such as debt consolidation or the purchase of small appliances. Overdraft check lines are usually limited to $5,000 or less.

The Banks' investment portfolios are analyzed and priced on a monthly basis. Investments are made in U.S. Treasuries, U.S. Agency issues, bank qualified tax-exempt municipal bonds, taxable municipal bonds, corporate bonds, and corporate stocks which consist of Pennsylvania bank stocks. Bonds with BBB or better ratings are used, unless a local issue is purchased that has a lesser or no rating. Factors taken into consideration when investments are purchased include liquidity, the Corporation’s tax position, tax equivalent yield, third party investment ratings, and the policies of the Asset/Liability Committee.

The banking environment in Lycoming, Clinton, Centre, Montour, Union, Blair, and Luzerne Counties, Pennsylvania is highly competitive. The Banks operate twenty-five full service offices in these markets and compete for loans and deposits with numerous commercial banks, savings and loan associations, and other financial institutions. The economic base of the region is developed around small business, health care, educational facilities (college and public schools), light manufacturing industries, and agriculture.

The Banks have a relatively stable deposit base and no material amount of deposits is obtained from a single depositor or group of depositors, excluding public entities that account for approximately 11% of total deposits. Although the Banks have regular opportunities to bid on pools of funds of $100,000 or more in the hands of municipalities, hospitals, and others, it does not rely on these monies to fund loans or intermediate or longer-term investments.

The Banks have not experienced any significant seasonal fluctuations in the amount of deposits.

Supervision and Regulation

As referenced elsewhere, the banking business is highly regulated, and the Banks are only able to engage in business activities, and to provide products and services, that are permitted by applicable law and regulation. In addition, the earnings of the Banks are affected by the policies of regulatory authorities including the FDIC and the FRB. An important function of the FRB is to regulate the money supply and interest rates. Among the instruments used to implement these objectives are open market operations in U.S. Government Securities, changes in reserve requirements against member bank deposits, and limitations on interest rates that member banks may pay on time and savings deposits. These instruments are used in varying combinations to influence overall growth and distribution of bank loans, and their use may also affect interest rates charged on loans or paid for deposits.

The policies and regulations of the FRB have had and will probably continue to have a significant effect on the Banks' deposits, loans and investment growth, as well as the rate of interest earned and paid, and are expected to affect the Banks' operation in the future. The effect of such policies and regulations upon the future business and earnings of the Banks cannot accurately be predicted.

ITEM 1A RISK FACTORS

The following sets forth several risk factors that may affect the Corporation's financial condition or results of operations.

Changes in interest rates could reduce our income, cash flows and asset values.

Our income and cash flows and the value of our assets depend to a great extent on the difference between the interest rates we earn on interest-earning assets, such as loans and investment securities, and the interest rates we pay on interest-bearing liabilities such as deposits and borrowings. These rates are highly sensitive to many factors which are beyond our control, including general economic conditions and policies of various governmental and regulatory agencies and, in particular, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. Changes in monetary policy, including changes in interest rates, will influence not only the interest we receive on our loans and investment securities and the amount of interest we pay on deposits and borrowings but will also affect our ability to originate loans and obtain deposits and the value of our investment portfolio. If the rate of interest we pay on our deposits and other borrowings increases more than the rate of interest we earn on our loans and other investments, our net interest income, and therefore our earnings, could be adversely affected. Our earnings also could be adversely affected if the rates on our loans and other investments fall more quickly than those on our deposits and other borrowings.

Economic conditions either nationally or locally in areas in which our operations are concentrated may adversely affect our business.

Deterioration in local, regional, national, or global economic conditions could cause us to experience a reduction in deposits and new loans, an increase in the number of borrowers who default on their loans, and a reduction in the value of the collateral securing their loans, all of which could adversely affect our performance and financial condition. Unlike larger banks that are more geographically diversified, we provide banking and financial services locally. Therefore, we are particularly vulnerable to adverse local economic conditions.

Many of our loans are secured, in whole or in part, with real estate collateral which is subject to declines in value.

In addition to considering the financial strength and cash flow characteristics of a borrower, we often secure our loans with real estate collateral. Real estate values and the real estate market are generally affected by, among other things, changes in local, regional or national economic conditions, fluctuations in interest rates and the availability of loans to potential purchasers, changes in tax laws and other governmental statutes, regulations and policies, and acts of nature. The real estate collateral provides an alternate source of repayment in the event of default by the borrower. If real estate prices in our markets decline, the value of the real estate collateral securing our loans could be reduced. If we are required to liquidate real estate collateral securing loans during a period of reduced real estate values to satisfy the debt, our earnings and capital could be adversely affected.

Our information systems may experience an interruption or breach in security.

We rely heavily on communications and information systems to conduct our business. Any failure, interruption or breach in security of these systems could result in failures or disruptions in our customer-relationship management, general ledger, deposit, loan and other systems. While we have policies and procedures designed to prevent or limit the effect of the failure, interruption or security breach of our information systems, there can be no assurance that any such failures, interruptions or security breaches will not occur; or, if they do occur, that they will be adequately addressed. The occurrence of any failures, interruptions or security breaches of our information systems could damage our reputation, result in a loss of customer business, subject us to additional regulatory scrutiny or expose us to civil litigation and possible financial liability; any of which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

We face the risk of cyber-attack to our computer systems.

Our computer systems, software and networks have been and will continue to be vulnerable to unauthorized access, loss or destruction of data (including confidential client information), account takeovers, unavailability of service, computer viruses or other malicious code, cyber-attacks and other events. These threats may derive from human error, fraud or malice on the part of employees or third parties, or may result from accidental technological failure. If one or more of these events occurs, it could result in the disclosure of confidential client information, damage to our reputation with our clients and the market, additional costs to us (such as repairing systems or adding new personnel or protection technologies), regulatory penalties and financial losses, to both us and our clients and customers. Such events could also cause interruptions or malfunctions in our operations (such as the lack of availability of our online banking system), as well as the operations of our clients, customers or other third

parties. Although we maintain safeguards to protect against these risks, there can be no assurance that we will not suffer losses in the future that may be material in amount.

Competition may decrease our growth or profits.

We face substantial competition in all phases of our operations from a variety of different competitors, including commercial banks, savings and loan associations, mutual savings banks, credit unions, consumer finance companies, factoring companies, leasing companies, insurance companies, and money market mutual funds. There is very strong competition among financial services providers in our principal service area. Our competitors may have greater resources, higher lending limits, or larger branch systems than we do. Accordingly, they may be able to offer a broader range of products and services as well as better pricing for those products and services than we can.

In addition, some of the financial services organizations with which we compete are not subject to the same degree of regulation as is imposed on federally insured financial institutions. As a result, those non-bank competitors may be able to access funding and provide various services more easily or at less cost than we can, adversely affecting our ability to compete effectively.

The value of certain investment securities is volatile and future declines or other-than-temporary impairments could materially adversely affect our future earnings and regulatory capital.

Continued volatility in the market value for certain of our investment securities, whether caused by changes in market perceptions of credit risk, as reflected in the expected market yield of the security, or actual defaults in the portfolio could result in significant fluctuations in the value of the securities. This could have a material adverse impact on our accumulated other comprehensive income/loss and shareholders’ equity depending on the direction of the fluctuations. Furthermore, future downgrades or defaults in these securities could result in future classifications of investment securities as other than temporarily impaired. This could have a material impact on our future earnings.

We may be adversely affected by government regulation.

The banking industry is heavily regulated. Banking regulations are primarily intended to protect the federal deposit insurance funds and depositors, not shareholders. Changes in the laws, regulations, and regulatory practices affecting the banking industry may increase our costs of doing business or otherwise adversely affect us and create competitive advantages for others. Regulations affecting banks and financial services companies undergo continuous change, and we cannot predict the ultimate effect of these changes, which could have a material adverse effect on our profitability or financial condition.

The potential exists for additional federal or state laws and regulations, or changes in policy, affecting many aspects of our operations, including capital levels, lending and funding practices, and liquidity standards. New laws and regulations may increase our costs of regulatory compliance and of doing business and otherwise affect our operations, and may significantly affect the markets in which we do business, the markets for and value of our loans and investments, the fees we can charge and our ongoing operations, costs and profitability.

We rely on our management and other key personnel, and the loss of any of them may adversely affect our operations.

We are and will continue to be dependent upon the services of our executive management team. In addition, we will continue to depend on our ability to retain and recruit key commercial loan officers. The unexpected loss of services of any key management personnel or commercial loan officers could have an adverse effect on our business and financial condition because of their skills, knowledge of our market, years of industry experience, and the difficulty of promptly finding qualified replacement personnel.

Environmental liability associated with lending activities could result in losses.

In the course of our business, we may foreclose on and take title to properties securing our loans. If hazardous substances were discovered on any of these properties, we could be liable to governmental entities or third parties for the costs of remediation of the hazard, as well as for personal injury and property damage. Many environmental laws can impose liability regardless of whether we knew of, or were responsible for, the contamination. In addition, if we arrange for the disposal of hazardous or toxic substances at another site, we may be liable for the costs of cleaning up and removing those substances from the site even if we neither own nor operate the disposal site. Environmental laws may require us to incur substantial expenses and may materially limit use of properties we acquire through foreclosure, reduce their value or limit our ability to sell them in the event of a default on the loans they secure. In addition, future laws or more stringent interpretations or enforcement policies with respect to existing laws may increase our exposure to environmental liability.

Failure to implement new technologies in our operations may adversely affect our growth or profits.

The market for financial services, including banking services and consumer finance services, is increasingly affected by advances in technology, including developments in telecommunications, data processing, computers, automation, Internet-based banking, and telebanking. Our ability to compete successfully in our markets may depend on the extent to which we are able to exploit such technological changes. However, we can provide no assurance that we will be able to properly or timely anticipate or implement such technologies or properly train our staff to use such technologies. Any failure to adapt to new technologies could adversely affect our business, financial condition, or operating results.

The Corporation is required to adopt the FASB's accounting standard which requires measurement of certain financial assets (including loans) using the current expected credit losses (CECL) beginning in calendar year 2023.

Current GAAP requires an incurred loss methodology for recognizing credit losses that delays recognition until it is probable a loss has been incurred. The FASB's amendment replaces the current incurred loss methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonableness and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The Corporation has evaluated the impact of the adoption of this guidance on the Corporation's financial statements and recorded a reduction in the allowance for loan losses on January 1, 2023 in the amount of $2,291,000 and an increase in a liability for unfunded commitments of $2,222,000.

External events, including natural disasters, national or global health emergencies, and events of armed conflict in other countries, and terrorist threats could impact our ability to do business or otherwise adversely affect our business, operations or financial condition.

Financial institutions, like other businesses, are susceptible to the effects of external events that can compromise operating and communications systems and otherwise have adverse effects. Such events, should they occur, can cause significant damage, impact the stability of our operations or facilities, result in additional expense, or impair the ability of our borrowers to repay their loans. Although we have established and regularly test disaster recovery procedures, the occurrence of any such event could have a material adverse effect on our business, operations, and financial condition. In addition, other external events, including natural disasters, health emergencies and epidemics or pandemics, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, and events of armed conflict in other parts of the world, such as the present armed conflict involving Ukraine and Russia, could adversely affect the global or regional economies resulting in unfavorable economic conditions in the United States. Any such development could have an adverse effect on our business, operations or financial condition.

An investment in our common stock is not an insured deposit.

Our common stock is not a bank deposit and, therefore, is not insured against loss by the FDIC, any other deposit insurance fund, or by any other public or private entity. Investment in our common stock is subject to the same market forces that affect the price of common stock in any company.

The Corporation has paid dividends since the effective date of its formation as a bank holding company. It is the present intention of the Corporation’s board of directors to continue the dividend payment policy; however, further dividends must necessarily depend upon earnings, financial condition, appropriate legal restrictions, and other factors relevant at the time the board of directors of the Corporation considers dividend policy. Cash available for dividend distributions to shareholders of the Corporation primarily comes from dividends paid by JSSB and Luzerne to the Corporation. Therefore, the restrictions on the Banks' dividend payments are directly applicable to the Corporation. See also the information appearing in Note 19 to “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” for additional information related to dividend restrictions.

Under the Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law of 1988 a corporation may not pay a dividend, if after giving effect thereto, the corporation would be unable to pay its debts as they become due in the usual course of business and after giving effect thereto the total assets of the corporation would be less than the sum of its total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed, if the corporation were to be dissolved at the time of the distribution, to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of the shareholders whose preferential rights are superior to those receiving the dividend.

As of March 1, 2023, the Corporation had approximately 3,973 shareholders of record.

Following is a schedule of the shares of the Corporation’s common stock purchased by the Corporation during the fourth quarter of 2022.

ITEM 7 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income is determined by calculating the difference between the yields earned on interest-earning assets and the rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities. To compare the tax-exempt asset yields to taxable yields, amounts are adjusted to taxable equivalents based on the marginal corporate federal tax rate of 21%. The tax equivalent adjustments to net interest income for 2022, 2021, and 2020 were $522,000, $449,000, and $476,000, respectively.

2022 vs. 2021

Reported net interest income increased $8,062,000 to $57,780,000 for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the year ended December 31, 2021, as the growth in the earning asset portfolio and decline in rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities more than offset a slight decrease in the yield on the loan portfolio to 3.95% from 3.98%. Total interest income increased $6,514,000 or $6,587,000 on a tax equivalent basis, primarily from growth in the loan portfolio. Tax equivalent interest income on the investment portfolio increased as legacy assets matured with the proceeds reinvested predominately into short and medium term municipal bonds carrying a higher yield than the legacy assets. The overall increase in the yield on the earning asset portfolio was driven by the impact of the rate increases enacted by the Federal Open Market Committee ("FOMC").

Interest expense decreased $1,548,000 to $7,148,000 for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to 2021. The decrease in interest expense was driven by a 17 bp decrease in the average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits led by a 78 bp decrease in the average rate paid on time deposits coupled with a decrease of $82,359,000 in average time deposit balances. Interest expense on total borrowings increased $307,000 as utilization of short-term borrowings increased during the second half of 2022. The increase in average short-term borrowing balances was due to FHLB long-term borrowings totaling $23,000,000 maturing during the year ended December 31, 2022. In addition, short-term borrowings provided funding for the growth in the loan portfolio.

2021 vs. 2020

Reported net interest income increased $1,495,000 to $49,718,000 for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to the year ended December 31, 2020, as the growth in the earning asset portfolio and decline in rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities more than offset a decrease in the yield on earning assets to 3.35% from 3.80%. Total interest income decreased $4,224,000 or $4,251,000 on a tax equivalent basis, primarily from a decrease in the tax equivalent yield on the loan portfolio decreasing 28 basis points ("bp"). Tax equivalent interest income on the investment portfolio decreased $541,000 as the yield on the investment portfolio decreased 54 bp. The decrease in the yield on the earning asset portfolio was driven by the impact of the continued low interest rate environment resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Interest expense decreased $5,719,000 to $8,696,000 for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to 2020. The decrease in interest expense was driven by a 51 bp decrease in the average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits led by a 61 bp decrease in the average rate paid on time deposits. The decrease in the average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits was offset by an increase in the balance of the average interest-bearing deposit portfolio of $51,034,000 while the average balance of the time deposit portfolio decreased $94,554,300. Interest expense on total borrowings decreased $699,000 as the balance of average total borrowings decreased $32,644,000 due to FHLB long-term borrowings totaling $30,000,000 maturing during the year ended December 31, 2021. The decrease in the overall rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities is the result of the continued low interest rate environment.

Rate/Volume Analysis

The table below sets forth certain information regarding changes in our interest income and interest expense for the periods indicated. For interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, information is provided on changes attributable to (i) changes in volume (changes in average volume multiplied by old rate) and (ii) changes in rates (changes in rate multiplied by old average volume). Increases and decreases due to both interest rate and volume, which cannot be separated, have been allocated proportionally to the change due to volume and the change due to interest rate. Income and interest rates are on a taxable equivalent basis.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

2022 vs. 2021

The provision for loan losses is based upon management’s quarterly review of the loan portfolio. The purpose of the review is to assess loan quality, identify impaired loans, analyze delinquencies, ascertain loan growth, evaluate potential charge-offs and recoveries, and assess general economic conditions in the markets served. An external independent loan review is also performed semi-annually for the Corporation. Management remains committed to an aggressive program of problem loan identification and resolution.

T a b l e o f Contents

The allowance is calculated by applying loss factors to outstanding loans by type, excluding loans for which a specific allowance has been determined. Loss factors are based on management’s consideration of the nature of the portfolio segments, changes in mix and volume of the loan portfolio, and historical loan loss experience. In addition, management considers industry standards and trends with respect to nonperforming loans and its knowledge and experience with specific lending segments.

Although management believes that it uses the best information available to make such determinations and that the allowance for loan losses is adequate at December 31, 2022, future adjustments could be necessary if circumstances or economic conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the initial determinations. A downturn in the local economy or employment and delays in receiving financial information from borrowers could result in increased levels of nonperforming assets and charge-offs, increased loan loss provisions and reductions in interest income. Additionally, as an integral part of the examination process, bank regulatory agencies periodically review the Banks' loan loss allowance. The banking regulators could require additions to the loan loss allowance based on their judgment of information available to them at the time of their examination.

When determining the appropriate allowance level, management has attributed the allowance for loan losses to various portfolio segments; however, the allowance is available for the entire portfolio as needed.

The allowance for loan losses increased from $14,176,000 at December 31, 2021 to $15,637,000 at December 31, 2022. At December 31, 2022, the allowance for loan losses was 0.95% of total loans compared to 1.02% of total loans at December 31, 2021.

The provision for loan losses totaled $1,910,000 for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to $640,000 for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase in the provision was appropriate when considering gross loan growth of $247,584,000 and negative economic outlook offset by a reduction in non-performing loans and a low level of net charge-offs during 2022. Net charge-offs of $449,000 represented 0.03% of average loans for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to net charge-offs of $267,000 or 0.02% of average loans for the year ended December 31, 2021. The provision related to the commercial real estate mortgage segment of the loan portfolio decreased as improvement in credit metrics offset the impact of portfolio growth. An increase occurred in the automobile segment of the loan portfolio due to portfolio growth and concerns regarding the impact of inflation on the customer base. Nonperforming loans decreased $1,360,000 due to a payoff of a nonperforming loan during 2022. The majority of the nonperforming loans are centered on several loans that are either in a secured position and have sureties with a strong underlying financial position and/or a specific allowance within the allowance for loan losses. Significant loan portfolio growth, internal loan review and analysis, level of net charge-offs, and decreased level of nonperforming loans noted previously, dictated an increase in the provision for loan losses while the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of gross loans decreased. Utilizing both internal and external resources, as noted, senior management has concluded that the allowance for loan losses remains at a level adequate to provide for probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio.

2021 vs. 2020

The allowance for loan losses increased from $13,803,000 at December 31, 2020 to $14,176,000 at December 31, 2021. At December 31, 2021, the allowance for loan losses was 1.02% of total loans compared to 1.03% of total loans at December 31, 2020.

The provision for loan losses totaled $640,000 for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to $2,625,000 for the year ended December 31, 2020. The decrease in the provision was appropriate when considering the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, reduction in non-performing loans, and level of net charge-offs during 2021. Net charge-offs of $267,000 represented 0.02% of average loans for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to net charge-offs of $716,000 or 0.05% of average loans for the year ended December 31, 2020. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic coupled with supply chain disruptions led to an increase in the provision related to the commercial real estate mortgage segment of the loan portfolio. A decrease occurred in the automobile segment of the loan portfolio which coupled with a lower level of unemployment led to a decreased allowance for loan losses for this segment. Nonperforming loans decreased $4,084,000 as the economic environment improved as COVID-19 restrictions lessened. The majority of the nonperforming loans are centered on several loans that are either in a secured position and have sureties with a strong underlying financial position and/or a specific allowance within the allowance for loan losses. Internal loan review and analysis, level of net charge-offs, decreased level of nonperforming loans noted previously, and the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, dictated an decrease in the provision for loan losses. Utilizing both internal and external resources, as noted, senior management has concluded that the allowance for loan losses remains at a level adequate to provide for probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio.

NON-INTEREST INCOME

2022 vs. 2021

Total non-interest income decreased $2,956,000 from the year ended December 31, 2021 to December 31, 2022. Excluding net security gains, non-interest income decreased $1,932,000 year over year. Bank owned life insurance decreased primarily due to gains recognized on the receipt of death benefits in 2021. Gain on sale of loans and loan broker income decreased significantly as mortgage volume decreased due to the increase in interest rates caused by the rate increases enacted by the FOMC during 2022. Brokerage commissions decreased primarily due to the downturn in the stock market which led to decreased portfolio values and associated fees.

Bank owned life insurance increased primarily due to gains recognized on the receipt of death benefits. Debit card income increased $231,000 primarily due to an increase in debit card usage resulting from a lessening of COVID-19 restrictions and as consumers return to historical purchasing levels. Gain on sale of loans decreased as an increased proportion of secondary market loan originations were conducted in a broker capacity which resulted in other income increasing significantly.

commercial lenders. Occupancy and furniture and equipment expense decreased primarily due to a branch closure that occurred during the first quarter of 2022. Marketing expenses increased as loan product advertising levels increased. Other expenses increased primarily due to the proxy solicitation efforts related to an update to the articles of incorporation. The goodwill impairment is related to the wealth management unit (The M Group) as a decline in stock market valuations during 2022 resulted in a decreased level of net income for this entity.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

INVESTMENTS

2022

The fair value of the investment portfolio increased $27,117,000 from December 31, 2021 to December 31, 2022. The increase in value is the result of growth in the municipal segment of the portfolio as the investment portfolio continues to be actively managed in order to reduce interest rate and market risk. This strategy is being deployed through selective purchasing of bonds that mature within ten years. The unrealized losses within the debt securities portfolio are the result of market activity, not credit issues/ratings, as approximately 86% of the debt securities portfolio on an amortized cost basis is currently rated A or higher by either S&P or Moody’s.

LOAN PORTFOLIO

2022

Gross loans of $1,639,731,000 at December 31, 2022 represented an increase of $247,584,000 from December 31, 2021. The residential segment increased primarily due to growth in home equity products. In addition the commercial real estate segment of the loan portfolio increased from the previous year as emphasis remains on this segment of the portfolio coupled with our entrance into the Altoona market during 2020. Indirect auto lending increased as supply chain issues that previously limited dealer activity lessened.

2021

Gross loans of $1,392,147,000 at December 31, 2021 represented an increase of $47,820,000 from December 31, 2020. The commercial real estate segment of the loan portfolio had the largest increase from the previous year as emphasis has been placed on this segment of the portfolio coupled with our entrance into the Altoona market during 2020. Indirect auto lending declined within the portfolio as supply chain issues limited dealer activity. Indirect auto lending and home equity lines are part of the overall strategy to maintain the duration of the earning asset portfolio in preparation for a rising interest rate environment.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

2022

The allowance for loan losses represents the amount which management estimates is adequate to provide for probable losses inherent in its loan portfolio as of the consolidated balance sheet date. All loan losses are charged to the allowance and all recoveries are credited to it per the allowance method of providing for loan losses. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged to operations. The provision for loan losses is based upon management’s quarterly review of the loan portfolio. The purpose of the review is to assess loan quality, identify impaired loans, analyze delinquencies, ascertain loan growth, evaluate potential charge-offs and recoveries, and assess general economic conditions in the markets served. An external independent loan review is also performed semi-annually for the Banks. Management remains committed to an aggressive program of problem loan identification and resolution.

The allowance for loan losses increased from $14,176,000 at December 31, 2021 to $15,637,000 at December 31, 2022. At December 31, 2022 and 2021, the allowance for loan losses to total loans was 0.95% and 1.02%, respectively. Net loan charge-offs of $449,000 or 0.03% of average loans for the year ended December 31, 2022 countered the impact of the provision for loan losses of $1,910,000. The allowance for loan losses increased primarily due to the significant growth in the gross loan portfolio of $247,584,000 or 17.78% from December 31, 2021 to 2022. Management concluded that the allowance for loan losses is adequate to provide for probable losses inherent in its loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date as noted in the provision for loan losses discussion.

Based on management’s loan-by-loan review, the past performance of the borrowers, and current economic conditions, including recent business closures and bankruptcy levels, management does not anticipate any current losses related to nonaccrual, nonperforming, or classified loans above those that have already been considered in its overall judgment of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses.

2021

The allowance for loan losses increased from $13,803,000 at December 31, 2020 to $14,176,000 at December 31, 2021. At December 31, 2021 and 2020, the allowance for loan losses to total loans was 1.02% and 1.03%, respectively. Net loan charge-offs of $267,000 or 0.02% of average loans for the year ended December 31, 2021 countered the impact of the provision for loan losses of $640,000. The allowance for loan losses remained stable as the gross loan portfolio increased 3.56% and the portfolio continued to be impacted by the economic uncertainty that has resulted from the COVID-19 pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in various businesses operating at less than 100% capacity and supply chain issues. Management concluded that the allowance for loan losses is adequate to provide for probable losses inherent in its loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date as noted in the provision for loan losses discussion.

Over the last three years, various quantitative and qualitative factors indicate changes in our provision for loan losses. The provision for commercial and agricultural loans decreased during 2022 due to levels and trends of nonaccrual loans in our portfolio and a decline in net charge-offs. The provision for residential real estate loans remained flat as the portfolio size increased but was offset by a decline in the level of net charge-offs. The provision for this loan type is adjusted by national indices as well as our historical losses. The provision for commercial real estate loans decreased primarily due to an improvement in portfolio credit metrics. The provision for consumer automobiles increased due to increased indirect loan volume and concerns regarding the impact of inflation on the customer base.

T a b l e o f Contents

issues is felt within the markets we serve. The provision for consumer automobiles decreased due to reduction in indirect loan volume and a decrease in portfolio size. The provision for other consumer installment loans has decreased as the portfolio declined to $9,277,000 at December 31, 2021 from $19,940,000 at December 31, 2020. The COVID-19 pandemic and associated supply chain issues has resulted in various businesses operating at less than 100% capacity. This has caused an increase in the risk profile of the commercial segment of the loan portfolio resulting in a provision shift from unallocated to the commercial real estate mortgage segment of the loan portfolio. Average loan amounts are calculated off of end of month balances.

NONPERFORMING LOANS

The decrease in nonperforming loans during 2022 is primarily due to a payoff of a nonaccrual loan. The majority of the nonperforming loans are centered on several loans that are either in a secured position and have sureties with a strong underlying financial position and/or a specific allowance within the allowance for loan losses.

The following table presents information concerning nonperforming loans. The accrual of interest will be discontinued when the principal or interest of a loan is in default for 90 days or more, or as soon as payment is questionable, unless the loan is well secured and in the process of collection. Consumer loans and residential real estate loans secured by 1 to 4 family dwellings are not ordinarily subject to those guidelines. The reversal of previously accrued but uncollected interest applicable to any loan placed in a nonaccrual status and the treatment of subsequent payments of either principal or interest is handled in accordance with GAAP. These principles do not require a write-off of previously accrued interest if principal and interest are ultimately protected by sound collateral values. A nonperforming loan may be restored to accruing status when:

1. Principal and interest is no longer due and unpaid;

2. It becomes well secured and in the process of collection; and

3. Prospects for future contractual payments are no longer in doubt.


	Total Nonperforming Loans
(In Thousands)	90 Days Past Due		Nonaccrual		Total
2022	$	1,275	$	3,615	$	4,890
2021	861		5,389		6,250

The level of non-accruing loans continues to fluctuate annually and is attributed to the various economic factors experienced both regionally and nationally. Overall, the portfolio is well secured with a majority of the balance making regular payments or scheduled to be satisfied in the near future. Presently, there are no significant loans where serious doubts exist as to the ability of the borrower to comply with the current loan payment terms which are not included in the nonperforming categories as indicated above.

Management’s judgment in determining the amount of the additions to the allowance charged to operating expense considers the following factors with no single factor being determinative:

1. Economic conditions and the impact on the loan portfolio;

2. Analysis of past loan charge-offs experienced by category and comparison to outstanding loans;

3. Effect of problem loans on overall portfolio quality; and

4. Reports of examination of the loan portfolio by the Department and the FDIC.

DEPOSITS

2022 vs. 2021

Total average deposits increased $43,073,000 or 2.76% from 2021 to 2022. Noninterest-bearing deposits average balance increased $40,205,000 as the focus was on core deposit gathering which led to a decrease in average time deposit balances of $82,359,000. The Bank had major deposit customers with a combined outstanding balances of approximately $112,228,000 and $74,874,000 million at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

2021 vs. 2020

Total average deposits increased $135,808,000 or 9.52% from 2020 to 2021. Noninterest-bearing deposits average balance increased $84,774,000 as customers received funding from various government programs that were designed to combat the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic while seeking safety in bank deposits.

2022

Shareholders’ equity decreased $4,609,000 to $167,665,000 at December 31, 2022 compared to December 31, 2021. Accumulated other comprehensive loss of $13,958,000 at December 31, 2022 increased from a loss of $1,112,000 at December 31, 2021 as a result of a $9,819,000 net unrealized loss on available for sale securities at December 31, 2022 (compared to an unrealized gain of $2,373,000 at December 31, 2021) coupled with an increase in loss of $654,000 in the defined benefit plan obligation. The current level of shareholders’ equity equates to a book value per share of $23.76 at December 31, 2022 compared to $24.37 at December 31, 2021, and an equity to asset ratio of 8.40% at December 31, 2022 and 8.88% at December 31, 2021. Dividends declared for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 were $1.28 per share.

2021

Shareholders’ equity increased $8,128,000 to $172,274,000 at December 31, 2021 compared to December 31, 2020. Accumulated other comprehensive loss of $1,112,000 at December 31, 2021 increased from a loss of $882,000 at December 31, 2020 as a result of a decrease of $2,341,000 in the net unrealized gain on available for sale securities and a change in the defined benefit plan of $2,111,000. The current level of shareholders’ equity equates to a book value per share of $24.37 at December 31, 2021 compared to $23.27 at December 31, 2020, and an equity to asset ratio of 8.88% at December 31, 2021 and 8.95% at December 31, 2020.

Bank regulators have risk based capital guidelines. Under these guidelines the Corporation and each Bank are required to maintain minimum ratios of core capital and total qualifying capital as a percentage of risk weighted assets and certain off-balance sheet items. At December 31, 2022, both the Corporation’s and each Bank’s required ratios were well above the minimum ratios (and including the current capital conservation buffer where applicable) as follows:


	Corporation		Jersey Shore State Bank		Luzerne Bank		Minimum Standards
Common equity tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets	9.973	%	9.781	%	9.877	%	7.000	%
Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets	9.973	%	9.781	%	9.877	%	8.500	%
Total capital to risk-weighted assets	10.925	%	10.728	%	10.830	%	10.500	%
Tier 1 capital to average assets	8.636	%	8.383	%	8.260	%	4.000	%

For a more comprehensive discussion of these requirements, see “Regulation and Supervision” in Item 1 of the Annual Report on Form 10-K. Management believes that the Corporation and the Banks will continue to exceed regulatory capital requirements.

RETURN ON EQUITY AND ASSETS

The ratio of net income to average total assets and average shareholders’ equity, and other certain equity ratios are presented as follows:

LIQUIDITY, INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY, AND MARKET RISK

The Asset/Liability Committee addresses the liquidity needs of the Corporation to ensure that sufficient funds are available to meet credit demands and deposit withdrawals as well as to the placement of available funds in the investment portfolio. In assessing liquidity requirements, equal consideration is given to the current position as well as the future outlook.

The following liquidity measures are monitored for compliance and were within the limits cited at December 31, 2022.

1. Net Loans to Total Assets, 85% maximum

2. Net Loans to Total Deposits, 100% maximum

3. Cumulative 90 day Maturity GAP %, +/- 20% maximum

4. Cumulative 1 Year Maturity GAP %, +/- 25% maximum

Fundamental objectives of the Corporation’s asset/liability management process are to maintain adequate liquidity while minimizing interest rate risk. The maintenance of adequate liquidity provides the Corporation with the ability to meet its financial obligations to depositors, loan customers, and shareholders. Additionally, it provides funds for normal operating expenditures and business opportunities as they arise. The objective of interest rate sensitivity management is to increase net interest income by managing interest sensitive assets and liabilities in such a way that they can be repriced in response to changes in market interest rates.

The Corporation, like other financial institutions, must have sufficient funds available to meet its liquidity needs for deposit withdrawals, loan commitments, and expenses. In order to control cash flow, the Corporation estimates future flows of cash from deposits and loan payments. The primary sources of funds are deposits, principal and interest payments on loans and mortgage-backed securities, as well as FHLB borrowings. Funds generated are used principally to fund loans and purchase investment securities. Management believes the Corporation has adequate resources to meet its normal funding requirements.

Management monitors the Corporation’s liquidity on both a short and long-term basis, thereby providing management necessary information to react to current balance sheet trends. Cash flow needs are assessed and sources of funds are determined. Funding strategies consider both customer needs and economical cost. Both short and long term funding needs are

T a b l e o f Contents

addressed by maturities and sales of available for sale investment securities, loan repayments and maturities, and liquidating money market investments such as federal funds sold. The use of these resources, in conjunction with access to credit, provides core ingredients to satisfy depositor, borrower, and creditor needs.

Management monitors and determines the desirable level of liquidity. Consideration is given to loan demand, investment opportunities, deposit pricing and growth potential, as well as the current cost of borrowing funds. The Corporation has a current borrowing capacity at the FHLB of $761,089,000 with a total credit exposure of $290,288,000 utilized, leaving $470,801,000 available. In addition to this credit arrangement, the Corporation has additional lines of credit with correspondent banks of $100,000,000. The Corporation’s management believes that it has sufficient liquidity to satisfy estimated short-term and long-term funding needs.

Interest rate sensitivity, which is closely related to liquidity management, is a function of the repricing characteristics of the Corporation’s portfolio of assets and liabilities. Asset/liability management strives to match maturities and rates between loan and investment security assets with the deposit liabilities and borrowings that fund them. Successful asset/liability management results in a balance sheet structure which can cope effectively with market rate fluctuations. The matching process is affected by segmenting both assets and liabilities into future time periods (usually 12 months or less) based upon when repricing can be effected. Repriceable assets are subtracted from repriceable liabilities for a specific time period to determine the “gap” or difference. Once known, the gap is managed based on predictions about future market interest rates. Intentional mismatching, or gapping, can enhance net interest income if market rates move as predicted. However, if market rates behave in a manner contrary to predictions, net interest income will suffer. Gaps, therefore, contain an element of risk and must be prudently managed. In addition to gap management, the Corporation has an asset liability management policy which incorporates a market value at risk calculation which is used to determine the effects of interest rate movements on shareholders’ equity and a simulation analysis to monitor the effects of interest rate changes on the Corporation’s balance sheet.

The Corporation currently maintains a gap position of being asset sensitive. The Corporation has strategically taken this position as it has decreased the duration of the earning asset portfolio by adding quality short and intermediate term loans such as home equity loans and the selling of long-term municipal bonds. Lengthening of the liability portfolio is being undertaken to build protection in a rising rate environment.

A market value at risk calculation is utilized to monitor the effects of interest rate changes on the Corporation’s balance sheet and more specifically shareholders’ equity. The Corporation does not manage the balance sheet structure in order to maintain compliance with this calculation. The calculation serves as a guideline with greater emphasis placed on interest rate sensitivity. Changes to calculation results from period to period are reviewed as changes in results could be a signal of future events.

INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY

In this analysis the Corporation examines the result of various changes in market interest rates in 100 basis point increments and their effect on net interest income. It is assumed that the change is instantaneous and that all rates move in a parallel manner. Assumptions are also made concerning prepayment speeds on mortgage loans and mortgage securities.

The following is a rate shock forecast for the twelve month period ending December 31, 2023 assuming a static balance sheet as of December 31, 2022.


				Parallel Rate Shock in Basis Points
(In Thousands)	(300)			(200)			(100)			Static		100			200			300			400
Net interest income	$	67,193		$	70,074		$	72,604		$	74,427	$	75,988		$	77,534		$	79,022		$	80,417
Change from static	(7,234)			(4,353)			(1,823)			—		1,561			3,107			4,595			5,990
Percent change from static	-9.72		%	-5.85		%	-2.45		%	—		2.10		%	4.17		%	6.17		%	8.05		%

The model utilized to create the report presented above makes various estimates at each level of interest rate change regarding cash flow from principal repayment on loans and mortgage-backed securities and/or call activity on investment securities. Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates which would result in significant differences in the calculated projected change. In addition, the limits stated above do not necessarily represent the level of change under which management would undertake specific measures to realign its portfolio in order to reduce the projected level of change. Generally, management believes the Corporation is well positioned to respond expeditiously when the market interest rate outlook changes.

T a b l e o f Contents

INFLATION

The asset and liability structure of a financial institution is primarily monetary in nature; therefore, interest rates rather than inflation have a more significant impact on the Corporation’s performance. Interest rates are not always affected in the same direction or magnitude as prices of other goods and services, but are reflective of fiscal policy initiatives or economic factors that are not measured by a price index.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Corporation’s accounting policies are integral to understanding the results reported. The accounting policies are described in detail in Note 1 of the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” included in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Our most complex accounting policies require management’s judgment to ascertain the valuation of assets, liabilities, commitments, and contingencies. We have established detailed policies and control procedures that are intended to ensure valuation methods are well controlled and applied consistently from period to period. In addition, the policies and procedures are intended to ensure that the process for changing methodologies occurs in an appropriate manner. The following is a brief description of our current accounting policies involving significant management valuation judgments.

Debt securities are evaluated periodically to determine whether a decline in their value is other than temporary. Management utilizes criteria such as the magnitude and duration of the decline, in addition to the reason underlying the decline, to determine whether the loss in value is other than temporary. The term “other than temporary” is not intended to indicate that the decline is permanent. It indicates that the prospects for a near term recovery of value are not necessarily favorable, or that there is a lack of evidence to support fair values equal to, or greater than, the carrying value of the investment. Once a decline in value is determined to be other than temporary, the value of the security is reduced and a corresponding charge to earnings is recognized. For a full discussion of the Corporation’s methodology of assessing impairment, refer to Note 4 of the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” included in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Allowance for Loan Losses

Arriving at an appropriate level of allowance for loan losses involves a high degree of judgment. The Corporation’s allowance for loan losses provides for probable losses based upon evaluations of known and inherent risks in the loan portfolio.

Management uses historical information to assess the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses as well as the prevailing business environment; as it is affected by changing economic conditions and various external factors, which may impact the portfolio in ways currently unforeseen. The allowance is increased by provisions for loan losses and by recoveries of loans previously charged-off and reduced by loans charged-off. For a full discussion of the Corporation’s methodology of assessing the adequacy of the reserve for allowance for loan losses, refer to Note 1 of the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” included in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

As discussed in Note 8 of the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements,” the Corporation must assess goodwill and other intangible assets each year for impairment. This assessment involves estimating cash flows for future periods. If the future cash flows were less than the recorded goodwill and other intangible assets balances, we would be required to take a charge against earnings to write down the assets to the lower value.

Deferred Tax Assets

Management uses an estimate of future earnings to support their position that the benefit of their deferred tax assets will be realized. If future income should prove non-existent or less than the amount of the deferred tax assets within the tax years to which they may be applied, the asset may not be realized and the Corporation’s net income will be reduced. The Corporation’s deferred tax assets are described further in Note 12 of the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” included in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Pension Benefits

Pension costs and liabilities are dependent on assumptions used in calculating such amounts. These assumptions include discount rates, benefits earned, interest costs, expected return on plan assets, mortality rates, and other factors. In accordance

T a b l e o f Contents

with GAAP, actual results that differ from the assumptions are accumulated and amortized over future periods and, therefore, generally affect recognized expense and the recorded obligation of future periods. While management believes that the assumptions used are appropriate, differences in actual experience or changes in assumptions may affect the Corporation’s pension obligations and future expense. Our pension benefits are described further in Note 13 of the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” included in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

The Corporation has various financial obligations, including contractual obligations which may require future cash payments. The following table presents, as of December 31, 2022, significant fixed and determinable contractual obligations to third parties by payment date. Further discussion of the nature of each obligation is included in the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” included in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The Corporation’s operating lease obligations represent short and long-term lease and rental payments for branch facilities and equipment. The Bank leases certain facilities under operating leases which expire on various dates through 2049. Renewal options are available on the majority of these leases.

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

This Report contains certain “forward-looking statements” including statements concerning plans, objectives, future events or performance and assumptions and other statements which are other than statements of historical fact. The Corporation cautions readers that the following important factors, among others in addition to the factors discussed in Item 1 - "Business" and in Item 1A - "Risk Factors", may have affected and could in the future affect the Corporation’s actual results and could cause the Corporation’s actual results for subsequent periods to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statement made by or on behalf of the Corporation herein: (i) the effect of changes in laws and regulations, including federal and state banking laws and regulations, with which the Corporation must comply, and the associated costs of compliance with such laws and regulations either currently or in the future as applicable; (ii) the effect of changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted by the regulatory agencies as well as by the Financial Accounting Standards Board; (iii) the effect on the Corporation’s competitive position within its market area of the increasing consolidation within the banking and financial services industries, including the increased competition from larger regional and out-of-state banking organizations as well as non-bank providers of various financial services; (iv) the effect of changes in interest rates; (v) the effect of changes in the business cycle and downturns in the local, regional or national economies; and (vi) the effects of health emergencies, including the spread of infectious diseases or pandemics, and other external events, such as armed conflicts in other parts of the world, that could affect regional or global economies.

ITEM 7A QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk for the Corporation is comprised primarily from interest rate risk exposure and liquidity risk. Interest rate risk and liquidity risk management is performed at the Banks' level as well as the Corporation level. The Corporation’s interest rate sensitivity is monitored by management through selected interest rate risk measures produced internally. Additional information and details are provided in the Interest Sensitivity section of Item 7 - "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."

Generally, management believes the Corporation is well positioned to respond expeditiously when the market interest rate outlook changes.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 — OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Penns Woods Bancorp, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Jersey Shore State Bank (“JSSB”), Luzerne Bank ("Luzerne" and collectively with JSSB , the "Banks"), Woods Real Estate Development Co., Inc., Woods Investment Company, Inc., United Insurance Solutions, LLC, and The M Group Inc. D/B/A The Comprehensive Financial Group (“The M Group”), a wholly owned subsidiary of JSSB (collectively, the “Corporation”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Nature of Business

The Banks engage in a full-service commercial banking business, making available to the community a wide range of financial services including, but not limited to, installment loans, credit cards, mortgage and home equity loans, lines of credit, construction financing, farm loans, community development loans, loans to non-profit entities and local government, and various types of demand and time deposits including, but not limited to, checking accounts, savings accounts, money market deposit accounts, certificates of deposit, and IRAs. Deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) to the extent provided by law.

The financial services are provided by the Banks to individuals, partnerships, non-profit organizations, and corporations through their twenty-five offices located in Clinton, Lycoming, Centre, Montour, Union, Blair, and Luzerne Counties, Pennsylvania.

Woods Real Estate Development Co., Inc. engages in real estate transactions on behalf of Penns Woods Bancorp, Inc. and the Banks.

Woods Investment Company, Inc., a Delaware holding company, is engaged in investing activities.

The M Group engages in securities brokerage and financial planning services, which include the sale of life insurance products, annuities, and estate planning services.

Operations are managed and financial performance is evaluated on a corporate-wide basis. Accordingly, all financial service operations are considered by management to be aggregated in one reportable operating segment.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, valuation of net deferred tax assets, impairment of goodwill, other than temporary impairment of debt securities, fair value of financial instruments, and the valuation of real estate acquired through, or in lieu of, foreclosure on settlement of debt.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and in banks and federal funds sold. Interest-earning deposits mature within 90 days and are carried at cost. Net cash flows are reported for loan, deposit, and short-term borrowing transactions.

Restrictions on Cash and Cash Equivalents

Based on deposit levels, the Banks must maintain cash and other reserves with the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia ("FRB").

T a b l e o f Contents

Investment Securities

Investment securities are classified at the time of purchase, based on management’s intention and ability, as securities held to maturity, securities available for sale, or securities held for trading. Debt securities acquired with the intent and ability to hold to maturity are stated at cost, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, which are computed using the interest method and recognized as adjustments of interest income. Certain other debt securities have been classified as available for sale to serve principally as a source of liquidity. Unrealized holding gains and losses for available for sale securities are reported as a separate component of shareholders’ equity, net of tax, until realized. Equity securities are carried at fair value. Unrealized holding gains and losses for equity securities are recognized as a separate component within the income statement. Realized security gains and losses are computed using the specific identification method for debt securities and the average cost method for marketable equity securities. Interest and dividends on investment securities are recognized as income when earned.

Securities are periodically reviewed for other-than-temporary impairment based upon a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the length of time and extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, the financial condition of the underlying issuer, the ability of the issuer to meet contractual obligations, the likelihood of the security’s ability to recover any decline in its fair value, whether it is more likely than not that the Corporation would be required to sell the security before its anticipated recovery in fair value, and a review of the Corporation’s capital adequacy, interest rate risk position, and liquidity. The assessment of a security’s ability to recover any decline in fair value, the ability of the issuer to meet contractual obligations, and management’s intent and ability requires considerable judgment. A decline in value that is considered to be other-than-temporary is recorded as a loss within non-interest income in the Consolidated Statement of Income.

Fair values of investment securities are based on observed market prices. Certain investment securities do not have observed bid prices and their fair value is based on instruments with similar risk elements. Since regulatory stock is redeemable at par, the Corporation carries it at cost.

Loans

Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff generally are stated at the principal amount outstanding, net of deferred fees and discounts, unamortized loan fees and costs, and the allowance for loan losses. Interest on loans is recognized as income when earned on the accrual method. The Corporation’s general policy has been to stop accruing interest on loans when it is determined a reasonable doubt exists as to the collectability of additional interest. Income is subsequently recognized only to the extent that cash payments are received provided the loan is not delinquent in payment and, in management’s judgment, the borrower has the ability and intent to make future principal payments. Otherwise, payments are applied to the unpaid principal balance of the loan. Loans are restored to accrual status if certain conditions are met, including but not limited to, the repayment of all unpaid interest and scheduled principal due, ongoing performance consistent with the contractual agreement, and the future expectation of continued, timely payments.

Loan origination and commitment fees as well as certain direct loan origination costs are being deferred and amortized as an adjustment to the related loan’s yield over the contractual lives of the related loans.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses represents the amount which management estimates is adequate to provide for probable losses inherent in its loan portfolio as of the Consolidated Balance Sheet date. The allowance method is used in providing for loan losses. Accordingly, all loan losses are charged to the allowance and all recoveries are credited to it. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged to operations. The provision for loan losses is based upon management’s quarterly review of the loan portfolio. The purpose of the review is to assess loan quality, identify impaired loans, analyze delinquencies, ascertain loan growth, evaluate potential charge-offs and recoveries, and assess general economic conditions in the markets served. An external independent loan review is also performed semi-annually for the Bank. Management remains committed to an aggressive program of problem loan identification and resolution.

The allowance is calculated by applying loss factors to outstanding loans by type, excluding loans for which a specific allowance has been determined. Loss factors are based on management’s consideration of the nature of the portfolio segments, changes in mix and volume of the loan portfolio, historical loan loss experience, and general economic conditions. In addition, management considers industry standards and trends with respect to nonperforming loans and its knowledge and experience with specific lending segments.

T a b l e o f Contents

conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the initial determinations. A downturn in the local economy, rising unemployment, or negative performance trends in financial information from borrowers could be indicators of subsequent increased levels of nonperforming assets and possible charge-offs, which would normally require increased loan loss provisions. An integral part of the periodic regulatory examination process is the review of the adequacy of the Banks' loan loss allowance. The regulatory agencies could require the Banks, based on their evaluation of information available at the time of their examination, to provide additional loan loss provisions to further supplement the allowance.

Impaired loans are commercial and commercial real estate loans for which it is probable the Banks will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The Banks individually evaluate such loans for impairment and do not aggregate loans by major risk classifications. The definition of “impaired loans” is not the same as the definition of “nonaccrual loans,” although the two categories overlap. The Banks may choose to place a loan on nonaccrual status due to payment delinquency or uncertain collectability, while not classifying the loan as impaired if the loan is not a commercial or commercial real estate loan. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status and collateral value. The amount of impairment for these types of loans is determined by the difference between the present value of the expected cash flows related to the loan, using the original interest rate, and its recorded value, or as a practical expedient in the case of collateralized loans, the difference between the fair value of the collateral and the recorded amount of the loans. When foreclosure is probable, impairment is measured based on the fair value of the collateral.

Mortgage loans on one-to-four family properties and all consumer loans are large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans and are measured for impairment collectively. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays, which are defined as 90 days or less, generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays on a case-by-case basis taking into consideration all circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower including the length of the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed.

Loan Charge-off Policies

Loans are generally fully or partially charged down to the fair value of collateral securing the asset when:

• management judges the asset to be uncollectible;

•repayment is deemed to be protracted beyond reasonable time frames;

•the asset has been classified as a loss by either the internal loan review process or external examiners;

•the borrower has filed bankruptcy and the loss becomes evident due to a lack of assets; or

•the loan is 180 days past due unless both well secured and in the process of collection.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

In situations where, for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower’s financial difficulties, management may grant a concession for other than an insignificant period of time to the borrower that would not otherwise be considered, the related loan is classified as a troubled debt restructuring ("TDR"). Management strives to identify borrowers in financial difficulty early and work with them to modify to more affordable terms before their loan reaches nonaccrual status. These modified terms may include rate reductions, principal forgiveness, payment forbearance, and other actions intended to minimize the economic loss and to avoid foreclosure or repossession of the collateral. In cases where borrowers are granted new terms that provide for a reduction of either interest or principal, management measures any impairment on the restructuring as noted above for impaired loans.

In addition to the allowance for the pooled portfolios, management has developed a separate allowance for loans that are identified as impaired through a TDR. These loans are excluded from pooled loss forecasts and a separate reserve is provided under the accounting guidance for loan impairment. Consumer loans whose terms have been modified in a TDR are also individually analyzed for estimated impairment.

Loans Held for Sale

In general, fixed rate residential mortgage loans originated by the Banks are held for sale and are carried at cost due to their short holding period, which can range from less than two weeks to a maximum of thirty days. Sold loans are not serviced by the Banks. Proceeds from the sale of loans in excess of the carrying value are accounted for as a gain. Total gains on the sale of loans are shown as a component of non-interest income within the Consolidated Statement of Income.

T a b l e o f Contents

Foreclosed Assets

Foreclosed assets are carried at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated selling costs. Prior to foreclosure, the value of the underlying loan is written down to the fair value of the real estate to be acquired by a charge to the allowance for loan losses, if necessary. Any subsequent write-downs are charged against operating expenses. Net operating expenses and gains and losses realized from disposition are included in non-interest expense and income, respectively, within the Consolidated Statement of Income.

Premises and Equipment

Land is carried at cost. Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using straight-line and accelerated methods over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, which range from five to ten years for furniture, fixtures, and equipment and fifteen to forty years for buildings and improvements. Costs incurred for routine maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Costs of major additions and improvements are capitalized.

Bank-Owned Life Insurance

The Corporation has purchased life insurance policies on certain officers and directors. Bank-owned life insurance is recorded at its cash surrender value, or the amount that can be realized. Increases in the cash surrender value are recognized as a component of non-interest income within the Consolidated Statement of Income.

Goodwill

The Corporation performs an annual impairment analysis of goodwill for its purchased subsidiaries, Luzerne Bank and The M Group. Based on the fair value of these reporting units, estimated using the expected present value of future cash flows, an impairment of goodwill was recognized in 2022 of $653,000 related to The M Group. No impairment of goodwill was recognized in 2021 or 2020.

Intangible Assets

At December 31, 2022, the Corporation had intangible assets of $15,000 as a result of the acquisition of Luzerne National Bank Corporation, which is net of accumulated amortization of $1,999,000. These intangible assets will continue to be amortized using the sum-of-the-years digits method of amortization over ten years. The Corporation also had intangible assets of $312,000, which is net of accumulated amortization of $708,000, as a result of the purchase of two books of business related to investment product sales. The book of business intangible is being amortized using the straight-line method over a period of ten years.

Investments in Limited Partnerships

The Corporation was a limited partner in two partnerships at December 31, 2022 that provides low income elderly housing in the Corporation’s geographic market area. The carrying value of the Corporation’s investment in the limited partnerships was $8,656,000 at December 31, 2022 and $4,607,000 at December 31, 2021. The investments will be amortized over the ten-year tax credit receipt period. During 2021, one of the partnerships reached the level of occupancy needed to begin the ten year tax credit recognition period with $519,000 and $407,000 in amortization recognized in 2022 and 2021. The Corporation recognized a liability during 2022 in the amount of $3,873,000 for future equity contributions to be made to one of the partnerships.

Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments

In the ordinary course of business, the Corporation enters into off-balance sheet financial instruments. Those instruments consist of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. When those instruments are funded or become payable, the Corporation reports the amounts in its financial statements.

Marketing Cost

Marketing costs are generally expensed as incurred.

T a b l e o f Contents

Income Taxes

The Corporation prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Benefits from tax positions should be recognized in the financial statements only when it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authority that would have full knowledge of all relevant information. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be derecognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is no longer met.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities result from temporary differences in financial and income tax methods of accounting, and are reflected at currently enacted income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes. The Corporation analyzed its deferred tax asset position and determined that there was not a need for a valuation allowance due to the Corporation’s ability to generate future ordinary and capital taxable income.

The Corporation when applicable recognizes interest and penalties on income taxes as a component of income tax provision.

Earnings Per Share

The Corporation provides dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share is calculated utilizing net income as reported in the numerator and weighted average shares outstanding in the denominator. The computation of diluted earnings per share differs in that the dilutive effects of any stock options are adjusted in the denominator.

Employee Benefits

Pension and employee benefits include contributions, determined actuarially, to a defined benefit retirement plan covering the eligible employees of JSSB. The plan is funded on a current basis to the extent that it is deductible under existing federal tax regulations. Pension and other employee benefits also include contributions to a defined contribution Section 401(k) plan covering eligible employees. Contributions matching those made by eligible employees are funded throughout the year. In addition, an elective contribution may be made annually at the discretion of the board of directors.

The M Group Products and Income Recognition

The M Group product line is comprised primarily of annuities, life insurance, and mutual funds. The revenues generated from life insurance sales are commission only, as The M Group does not underwrite the policies. Life insurance sales include permanent and term policies with the majority of the policies written being permanent. Term life insurance policies are written for 10, 15, 20, and 30 year terms with the majority of the policies being written for 20 years. None of these products are offered as an integral part of lending activities.

Commissions from the sale of annuities are recognized at the time notice is received from the third party broker/dealer or an insurance company that the transaction has been accepted and approved, which is also the time when commission income is received.

Life insurance commissions are recognized at varying points based on the payment option chosen by the customer. Commissions from monthly and annual payment plans are recognized at the start of each annual period for the life insurance, while quarterly and semi-annual premium payments are recognized quarterly and semi-annually when the earnings process is complete. For example, semi-annual payments on the first of January and July would result in commission income recognition on the first of January and July, while payments on the first of January, April, July, and October would result in commission income recognition on those dates. The potential for chargebacks only exists for those policies on a monthly payment plan since income is recognized at the beginning of the annual coverage period versus at the time of each monthly payment. No liability is maintained for chargebacks as these are removed from income at the time of the occurrence.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

The Corporation is required to present accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in a full set of general-purpose financial statements for all periods presented. Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) is comprised of unrealized holding gains (losses) on the available for sale securities portfolio and the unrecognized components of net periodic benefit costs of the defined benefit pension plan.

Segment Reporting

The Corporation has determined that its only reportable segment is Community Banking.

Reclassification of Comparative Amounts

Certain items previously reported have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s reporting format. Such reclassifications did not affect net income or shareholders’ equity.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which changes the impairment model for most financial assets. This standard, along with several other subsequent codification updates, replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses that are expected to occur over the remaining life of a financial asset and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The amendments in this update require a financial asset (or a group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The new current expected credit losses model (“CECL”) will apply to the allowance for loan losses, available-for-sale and held-to-maturity debt securities, purchased financial assets with credit deterioration and certain off-balance sheet credit exposures.

Management has completed its implementation plan, segmentation and testing, and model validation. The implementation plan included drafting of additional controls and policies to govern data uploads to its third- party vendor, balancing and reconciling, testing and auditing of inputs, and review and decision-making surrounding segmentation, methodologies, qualitative factor adjustments, and reasonable and supportable forecasts and reversion techniques. Parallel runs were processed during 2022 and the results were consistent with management's expectations. The implementation plan is currently going through the Company's control structure and internal control testing is being performed.

As a result of adopting this standard, the Company has completed the calculation and is in the process of finalizing the review over the January 1, 2023 assumptions and outputs of the model as well as the final qualitative factor adjustments, which will determine the total amount of the allowance for credit losses and the reserves for unfunded commitments. These estimates are subject to refinements based on our final review as well as prevailing economic conditions and forecasts as of the adoption date. While we do expect an adjustment related to the allowance for credit losses on our outstanding loans as well as our off-balance sheet commitments, we do not expect the impact of adoption to have a significant impact on the Company’s regulatory capital ratios.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. To simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill, the FASB eliminated Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. In computing the implied fair value of goodwill under Step 2, an entity had to perform procedures to determine the fair value at the impairment testing date of its assets and liabilities (including unrecognized assets and liabilities) following the procedure that would be required in determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Instead, under the amendments in this Update, an entity should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The Update is effective for smaller reporting companies and all other entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those fiscal years. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, March 2020, to provide temporary optional expedients and exceptions to the U.S. GAAP guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting to ease the financial reporting burdens of the expected market transition from LIBOR and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates, such as the Secured Overnight Financing Rate. Entities can elect not to apply certain modification accounting requirements to contracts affected by what the guidance calls “reference rate reform” if certain criteria are met. An entity that makes this election would not have to remeasure the contracts at the modification date or reassess a previous accounting determination. Also, entities can elect various optional

T a b l e o f Contents

expedients that would allow them to continue applying hedge accounting for hedging relationships affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met, and can make a one- time election to sell and/or reclassify held-to-maturity debt securities that reference an interest rate affected by reference rate reform. The amendments in this ASU are effective for all entities upon issuance through December 31, 2022. In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848, which extends the sunset (or expiration) date of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 848 to December 31, 2024. This gives reporting entities two additional years to apply the accounting relief provided under ASC Topic 848 for matters related to reference rate reform. ASU 2022-06 is effective for all reporting entities immediately upon issuance and must be applied on a prospective basis. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40), which simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. This ASU removes from U.S. GAAP the separation models for (1) convertible debt with a cash conversion feature and (2) convertible instruments with a beneficial conversion feature. As a result, entities will not separately present in equity an embedded conversion feature in such debt. Instead, they will account for a convertible debt instrument wholly as debt, and for convertible preferred stock wholly as preferred stock (i.e., as a single unit of account), unless (1) a convertible instrument contains features that require bifurcation as a derivative under ASC 815 or (2) a convertible debt instrument was issued at a substantial premium. This ASU requires entities to provide expanded disclosures about the terms and features of convertible instruments, how the instruments have been reported in the entity’s financial statements, and information about events, conditions, and circumstances that can affect how to assess the amount or timing of an entity’s future cash flows related to those instruments. The amendments in this ASU are effective for public business entities that are not smaller reporting companies, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, this ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The guidance may be early adopted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal years. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE 3 - PER SHARE DATA

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

Dilutive effect of outstanding stock options	—	—	—
Weighted average common shares outstanding - diluted	7,059,437	7,061,818	7,044,542

There were a total of 914,000 non-qualified employee stock options (Note 14) outstanding on December 31, 2022 that had a weighted average strike price of $25.34. Options on December 31, 2021 had an average strike price of $27.23 with a total of 1,034,525 options outstanding. Grants outstanding at year-end 2020 totaled to 841,275 options with an average strike price of $28.17. These options were excluded, on a weighted average basis, in the computation of diluted earnings per share for the 2022, 2021, and 2020 periods presented due to the average market price of common shares being less than the strike price of the options.

At December 31, 2022 there were 146 individual securities in a continuous unrealized loss position for less than twelve months and 98 individual securities in a continuous unrealized loss position for greater than twelve months.

The Corporation reviews its position quarterly and has asserted that at December 31, 2022 and 2021, the declines outlined in the above table represent temporary declines and the Corporation does not intend to sell and does not believe they will be required to sell these securities before recovery of their cost basis, which may be at maturity. The Corporation has concluded that any impairment of its investment securities portfolio is not other than temporary but is the result of interest rate changes that are not expected to result in the non-collection of principal and interest during the period.

The amortized cost and fair value of debt securities at December 31, 2022, by contractual maturity, are shown below. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities since borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

NOTE 5 - FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK STOCK

The Banks are members of the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) of Pittsburgh and as such, are required to maintain a minimum investment in stock of the FHLB that varies with the level of advances outstanding with the FHLB. The stock is bought from and sold to the FHLB based upon its $100 par value. The stock does not have a readily determinable fair value and as such is classified as restricted stock, carried at cost and evaluated for impairment as necessary. The stock’s value is determined by the ultimate recoverability of the par value rather than by recognizing temporary declines. The determination of whether the par value will ultimately be recovered is influenced by criteria such as the following: (a) the significance of the decline in net assets of the FHLB as compared to the capital stock amount and the length of time this situation has persisted (b) commitments by the FHLB to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance (c) the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on the customer base of the FHLB and (d) the liquidity position of the FHLB.

Management evaluated the stock and concluded that the stock was not impaired for the periods presented herein. Management considered that the FHLB maintains regulatory capital ratios in excess of all regulatory capital requirements, liquidity appears adequate, new shares of FHLB stock continue to change hands at the $100 par value, and the payment of dividends.

NOTE 6 - LOAN CREDIT QUALITY AND RELATED ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

Management segments the Banks' loan portfolio to a level that enables risk and performance monitoring according to similar risk characteristics. Loans are segmented based on the underlying collateral characteristics. Categories include commercial, financial, and agricultural, real estate, consumer automobile, and other consumer installment loans. Real estate loans are further segmented into three categories: residential, commercial, and construction.

The following table presents the related aging categories of loans, by segment, as of December 31, 2022 and 2021:

Impaired Loans

Impaired loans are loans for which it is probable the Banks will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The Banks individually evaluate such loans for impairment and do not aggregate loans by major risk classifications. The definition of “impaired loans” is not the same as the definition of “non-accrual loans,” although the two categories overlap. The Banks may choose to place a loan on non-accrual status due to payment delinquency or uncertain collectability, while not classifying the loan as impaired. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status and collateral value. The amount of impairment for these types of loans is determined by the difference between the present value of the expected cash flows related to the loan, using the original interest rate, and its recorded value, or as a practical expedient in the case of collateralized loans, the difference between the fair value of the collateral and the recorded amount of the loan. When foreclosure is probable, impairment is measured based on the fair value of the collateral.

T a b l e o f Contents

Management evaluates individual loans in all of the commercial segments for possible impairment if the loan is greater than $100,000 and if the loan is either on non-accrual status or has a risk rating of substandard or worse. Management may also elect to measure an individual loan for impairment if less than $100,000 on a case by case basis.

Mortgage loans on one-to-four family properties and all consumer loans are large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans and are measured for impairment collectively with the exception of loans identified as troubled debt restructurings. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays, which are defined as 90 days or less, generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays on a case-by-case basis taking into consideration all circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower including the length of the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Interest income for impaired loans is recorded consistent to the Banks' policy.

The following table presents the recorded investment, unpaid principal balance, and related allowance of impaired loans by segment as of December 31, 2022 and 2021:

At December 31, 2022, additional funds totaling $2,000 are committed to be advanced in connection with impaired loans.

Modifications

The loan portfolio also includes certain loans that have been modified in a Troubled Debt Restructuring ("TDR"), where economic concessions have been granted to borrowers who have experienced or are expected to experience financial difficulties. These concessions typically result from loss mitigation activities and could include reductions in the interest rate, payment extensions, forgiveness of principal, forbearance, or other actions. Certain TDRs are classified as nonperforming at the time of restructure and may only be returned to performing status after considering the borrower’s sustained repayment performance for a reasonable period, generally six months.

Loan modifications that are considered TDRs completed during the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, 2021,and 2020 were as follows:

Internal Risk Ratings

Management uses a ten point internal risk rating system to monitor the credit quality of the overall loan portfolio. The first six categories are considered not criticized, and are aggregated as “Pass” rated. The criticized rating categories utilized by management generally follow bank regulatory definitions. The Special Mention category includes assets that are currently protected but are potentially weak, resulting in an undue and unwarranted credit risk, but not to the point of justifying a Substandard classification. Loans in the Substandard category have well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt, and have a distinct possibility that some loss will be sustained if the weaknesses are not corrected. All loans greater than 90 days past due are evaluated for Substandard classification. Loans in the Doubtful category exhibit the same weaknesses found in the Substandard loans, however, the weaknesses are more pronounced. Such loans are static and collection in full is improbable. However, these loans are not yet rated as loss because certain events may occur which would salvage the debt. Loans classified Loss are considered uncollectible and charge-off is imminent.

To help ensure that risk ratings are accurate and reflect the present and future capacity of borrowers to repay a loan as agreed, the Banks have a structured loan rating process with several layers of internal and external oversight. Generally, consumer and residential mortgage loans are included in the pass category unless a specific action, such as bankruptcy, repossession, or death occurs to raise awareness of a possible credit event. An external semi-annual loan review of large commercial relationships is performed, as well as a sample of smaller transactions. The 2022 loan review evaluated 55% of the Bank's average outstanding commercial portfolio which can consist of outstanding loans, commercial real estate mortgages and outstanding commitments. Detailed reviews, including plans for resolution, are performed on loans classified as substandard, doubtful, or loss on a quarterly basis.

The following table presents the credit quality categories identified above as of December 31, 2022 and 2021:

Allowance for Loan Losses

An allowance for loan losses (“ALL”) is maintained to absorb losses from the loan portfolio. The ALL is based on management’s continuing evaluation of the risk characteristics and credit quality of the loan portfolio, assessment of current economic conditions, diversification and size of the portfolio, adequacy of collateral, past and anticipated future loss experience, and the amount of non-performing loans.

The Banks' methodology for determining the ALL is based on the requirements of ASC Section 310-10-35 for loans individually evaluated for impairment (previously discussed) and ASC Subtopic 450-20 for loans collectively evaluated for impairment, as well as the Interagency Policy Statements on the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses and other bank regulatory guidance. The total of the two components represents the Banks' ALL.

Loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment are analyzed with general allowances being made as appropriate. Allowances are segmented based on collateral characteristics previously disclosed, and consistent with credit quality monitoring. Loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment are grouped into two classes for evaluation. A general

T a b l e o f Contents

allowance is determined for “Pass” rated credits, while a separate pool allowance is provided for “Criticized” rated credits that are not individually evaluated for impairment.

For the general allowances historical loss trends are used in the estimation of losses in the current portfolio. These historical loss amounts are modified by other qualitative factors. A historical charge-off factor is calculated utilizing a twelve quarter moving average. However, management may adjust the moving average time frame by up to four quarters to adjust for variances in the economic cycle. Management has identified a number of additional qualitative factors which it uses to supplement the historical charge-off factor because these factors are likely to cause estimated credit losses associated with the existing loan pools to differ from historical loss experience. The additional factors that are evaluated quarterly and updated using information obtained from internal, regulatory, and governmental sources are: levels of and trends in delinquency rates and non-accrual loans; trends in volumes and terms of loans; effects of changes in lending policies; experience, ability, and depth of lending staff; national and economic trends and conditions; concentrations of credit from a loan type, industry, and/or geographic standpoint; value of underlying collateral on collateral depended loans; effect of other external factors; and the quality of the loan review system. During 2022, certain qualitative factors were adjusted to account for economic changes and significant loan portfolio growth.

Loans in the criticized pools, which possess certain qualities or characteristics that may lead to collection and loss issues, are closely monitored by management and subject to additional qualitative factors. Management also monitors industry loss factors by loan segment for applicable adjustments to actual loss experience.

Management reviews the loan portfolio on a quarterly basis in order to make appropriate and timely adjustments to the ALL. When information confirms all or part of specific loans to be uncollectible, these amounts are promptly charged off against the ALL.

The provision for commercial and agricultural loans decreased during 2021 due to levels and trends of nonaccrual loans in our portfolio and a decline in net charge-offs. The provision for residential real estate loans remained flat as the porfolio size increased slightly and the level of net charge-offs declined modestly. The provision for this loan type is adjusted by national indices as well as our historical losses. The provision for commercial and construction real estate loans increased as the economic environment has continued to remain soft as the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and associated supply chain issues is felt within the markets we serve. The provision for consumer automobiles decreased due to reduction in indirect loan volume and a decrease in portfolio size. The provision for other consumer installment loans has decreased as the portfolio declined to $9,277,000 at December 31, 2021 from $19,940,000 at December 31, 2020. The COVID-19 pandemic and associated supply chain issues has resulted in various businesses operating at less than 100% capacity. This has caused an increase in the risk profile of the commercial segment of the loan portfolio resulting in a provision shift from unallocated to the commercial real estate mortgage segment of the loan portfolio. Average loan amounts are calculated off of end of month balances.

Activity in the allowance is presented for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020:

NOTE 8 - GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLES

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, goodwill had a gross carrying value of $17,380,000 and accumulated amortization of $276,000. During 2022 an impairment charge of $653,000 was recognized resulting in a net carrying amount of $16,450,000 at December 31, 2022 compared to $17,104,000 at December 31, 2021. The impairment charge occurred due to a decline in revenue that was experienced during 2022.

The gross carrying amount of goodwill is tested for impairment annually. Based on the fair value of the reporting unit, estimated using the expected present value of future cash flows, there was no evidence of impairment of the carrying amount at December 31, 2022 or 2021.

Identifiable intangibles are amortized to their estimated residual values over the expected useful lives. Such lives are also periodically reassessed to determine if any amortization period adjustments are required. Since the acquisition, no such adjustments were recorded. The identifiable intangible assets consist of a core deposit intangible and a trade name intangible which are being amortized on an accelerated basis, and also book of business intangible that is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the useful life of such assets. The net carrying amount of the core deposit intangible, the trade name intangible, and the book of business intangible at December 31, 2022 was $14,000, $1,000, and $312,000 respectively, with $1,867,000, $132,000, and $708,000 accumulated amortization as of that date.

A valuation allowance was established on the $1,003,000 of capital loss carryforwards in 2021. The valuation allowance was increased by $807,000 to a total of $1,810,000 due to additional capital losses resulting when the Corporation's federal tax return was filed in October of 2022. There were no other valuation allowances established at December 31, 2021, because of the Corporation’s ability to carry back losses to recover taxes paid in previous years and certain tax strategies, together with the anticipated future taxable income as evidenced by the Corporation’s earning potential. The Corporation is no longer subject to federal, state, and local examinations by tax authorities for years before 2019.

The provision or benefit for income taxes is comprised of the following for the year ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020:


(In Thousands)	2022		2021		2020

NOTE 13 - EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

Defined Benefit Pension Plan

The Corporation has a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan (the “Plan”) for all employees meeting certain age and length of service requirements that were hired prior to January 1, 2004, at which time entrance into the Plan was frozen. The benefit accrual for the Plan was subsequently frozen at December 31, 2014. Benefits are based primarily on years of service and the average annual compensation during the highest five consecutive years within the final ten years of employment, until December 31, 2014 when the benefit accrual was frozen.

The following table sets forth the obligation and funded status as of December 31, 2022 and 2021:

Assumptions

Weighted-average assumptions used to determine benefit obligations at December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020:


	2022		2021		2020
Discount rate	4.93	%	2.61	%	2.24	%
Rate of compensation increase	N/A		N/A		N/A

Weighted-average assumptions used to determine net periodic cost for years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020:


	2022		2021		2020
Discount rate	2.61	%	2.24	%	3.04	%
Expected long-term return on plan assets	7.00	%	7.00	%	7.00	%

The expected long-term rate of return was estimated using market benchmarks by which the plan assets would outperform the market value in the future, based on historical experience adjusted for changes in asset allocation and expectations for overall lower future returns on similar investments compared to past periods.

Plan Assets

The Plan’s weighted-average asset allocations at December 31, 2022 and 2021 by asset category are as follows:


Asset Category	2022		2021
Cash	4.84	%	5.09	%
Fixed income securities	15.05	%	12.29	%
Equity	66.36	%	68.76	%
Inflation Hedges/Real Assets	3.92	%	5.23	%
Hedged Strategies	9.83	%	8.63	%
Total	100.00	%	100.00	%

The investment objective for the Plan is to maximize total return with tolerance for slightly above average risk, meaning the fund is able to tolerate short-term volatility to achieve above-average returns over the long term.

Asset allocation favors equities, with target allocation of approximately 62% equity securities, 15.0% fixed income securities, 10% inflation hedges/real assets, 10% hedged strategies, and 3% cash. Due to volatility in the market, the target allocation is not always desirable and asset allocations will fluctuate between the acceptable ranges. The equity portfolio’s exposure is primarily in mid and large capitalization domestic equities with limited exposure to small capitalization and international stocks.

It is management’s intent to give the investment managers flexibility, within the overall guidelines, with respect to investment decisions and their timing. However, certain investments require specific review and approval by management. Management is also informed of anticipated, significant modifications of any previously approved investment, or anticipated use of derivatives to execute investment strategies.

The Corporation does not expect to contribute to its Pension Plan in 2023.

401(k) Savings Plan

The Corporation also offers a 401(k) savings plan in which eligible participating employees may elect to contribute up to a maximum percentage allowable not to exceed the limits of Code Sections 401(k), 404, and 415. The Corporation may make matching contributions equal to a discretionary percentage that is determined by the Board of Directors. Participants are at all times fully vested in their contributions and vest over a period of five years regarding the employer contribution. Contribution expense was approximately $548,000, $500,000, and $502,000 for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020, respectively.

Deferred Compensation Plan

The Corporation has a deferred compensation plan whereby participating directors elect to forego directors’ fees paid in cash. Under this plan, the Corporation will make payments for a ten-year period beginning at the later of age 65 or ceasing to be a director in most cases or at death, if earlier, at which time payments would be made to their designated beneficiaries.

T a b l e o f Contents

To fund benefits under the deferred compensation plan, the Corporation has acquired bank-owned life insurance policies on the lives of the participating directors for which insurance benefits are payable to the Corporation. The Corporation incurred expenses related to the plan of $588,000, $463,000, and $431,000 for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020, respectively. Benefits paid under the plan were approximately $267,000, $57,000, and $57,000 in 2022, 2021, and 2020, respectively.

NOTE 14 - STOCK OPTIONS

In 2020, the Corporation adopted the 2020 Equity Incentive Plan which replaced the 2014 Equity Incentive Plan. The Equity Incentive Plans are designed to help the Corporation attract, retain, and motivate employees and non-employee directors. Incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, and restricted stock may be granted as part of the plan.

The fair value of stock options is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The following is a summary of the assumptions used in this model for the stock options granted during 2022, 2021, and 2020:


	2022			2021			2020
Risk-free interest rate	1.23		%	0.82		%	1.32		%

The estimated fair value of options, including the effect of estimated forfeitures, is recognized as expense on a straightline basis over the options’ vesting periods while ensuring that the cumulative amount of compensation cost recognized at least equals the value of the vested portion of the award at that date. The Corporation determines the fair value of options granted using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The risk-free interest rate is based on the United States Treasury bond with a similar term to the expected life of the options at the grant date. Expected volatility was estimated based on the adjusted historic volatility of the Corporation’s shares. The expected life was estimated to equal the contractual life of the options. The dividend yield rate was based upon recent historical dividends paid on shares.

For the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020 there was $1,231,000, $960,000, and $854,000 in total share-based compensation expense, respectively. There was additional compensation expense of $183,000 (after-tax $145,000) associated with the voluntary cash settlement of 346,725 outstanding stock options that occurred in June of 2022. The compensation expense is recorded as part of the non-interest expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Income.

As of December 31, 2022, total unrecognized compensation costs related to non-vested options was $1,615,000 which is expected to be recognized over a period of 2.34 years. Exercisable stock awards at December 31, 2022 were 105,600 with a weighted average remaining exercisable contractual life of 6.11 years.

NOTE 15 - EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN

The Corporation maintains the Penns Woods Bancorp, Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“Plan”). The Plan is intended to encourage employee participation in the ownership and economic progress of the Corporation. The Plan allows for up to 1,500,000 shares to be purchased by employees. The purchase price of the shares is 95% of fair value with an employee eligible to purchase up to the lesser of 15% of base compensation or $12,000 in fair value annually. There were 3,617, 3,850 and 3,972 shares issued under the plan for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 respectively.

NOTE 16 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Certain directors and executive officers of the Corporation and the Banks, including their immediate families and companies in which they are principal owners (more than ten percent), are indebted to the Corporation. Such indebtedness was incurred in the ordinary course of business on the same terms and at those rates prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with others.

A summary of loan activity with executive officers, directors, principal shareholders, and associates of such persons is listed below for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021:


(In Thousands)	Beginning Balance		New Loans		Other		Repayments		Ending Balance
2021	$	16,246	$	10,546	$	(3,177)	$	(11,249)	$	12,366
2022	12,366		10,651		(5,266)		(6,206)		11,545

Loan balances that are no longer considered part of a related party relationship are shown as other activity.

Deposits from related parties held by the Banks amounted to $19,694,000 at December 31, 2022 and $27,669,000 at December 31, 2021.

NOTE 17 - OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK

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

The Corporation’s exposure to credit loss from nonperformance by the other party to the financial instruments for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of these instruments. The Corporation

T a b l e o f Contents

uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. The Corporation may require collateral or other security to support financial instruments with off-balance sheet credit risk.

Financial instruments whose contract amounts represent credit risk are as follows at December 31, 2022 and 2021:


(In Thousands)	2022		2021
Commitments to extend credit	$	169,365	$	184,364
Standby letters of credit	9,915		7,027
Credit exposure from the sale of assets with recourse	7,358		10,248

Commitments to extend credit are legally binding agreements to lend to customers. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of fees. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future liquidity requirements. The Corporation evaluates each customer’s credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Corporation, on an extension of credit is based on management’s credit assessment of the counterparty.

Standby letters of credit represent conditional commitments issued by the Corporation to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. These instruments are issued primarily to support bid or performance related contracts. The coverage period for these instruments is typically a one year period with an annual renewal option subject to prior approval by management. Fees earned from the issuance of these letters are recognized upon expiration of the coverage period. For secured letters of credit, the collateral is typically Bank deposit instruments or customer business assets.

NOTE 18 - CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

Federal regulations require the Corporation and the Banks to maintain minimum amounts of capital. Specifically, each is required to maintain certain minimum dollar amounts and ratios of Common Equity Tier 1, Total, and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets and of Tier 1 capital to average total assets.

In addition to the capital requirements, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act (“FDICIA”) established five capital categories ranging from “well capitalized” to “critically undercapitalized.” Should any institution fail to meet the requirements to be considered “adequately capitalized,” it would become subject to a series of increasingly restrictive regulatory actions.

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the FDIC categorized the Banks as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be classified as a well capitalized financial institution, common equity tier I risk-based, tier I risked-based, total risk-based, and tier I leverage capital ratios must be at least 6.5%, 8%, 10%, and 5%, respectively.

T a b l e o f Contents

The Corporation’s and the Banks' actual capital ratios (using the definitions from the prompt corrective action rules) are presented in the following tables, which shows that the Corporation and both Banks met all regulatory capital requirements.

NOTE 19 - REGULATORY RESTRICTIONS

The Pennsylvania Banking Code restricts the availability of capital funds for payment of dividends by all state-chartered banks. Accordingly, at December 31, 2022, the balance in the additional paid in capital account totaling $11,657,000 for JSSB and $42,214,000 for Luzerne is unavailable for dividends.

The Banks are subject to regulatory restrictions, which limit the ability to loan funds to Penns Woods Bancorp, Inc. At December 31, 2022, the regulatory lending limit amounted to approximately $26,839,000.

Cash and Due from Banks

JSSB and Luzerne had no reserve requirements by the district Federal Reserve Bank at December 31, 2022 or 2021; however, if they did they would be reported with cash and due from banks. The required reserves are computed by applying prescribed ratios to the classes of average deposit balances. These are held in the form of cash on hand and a balance maintained directly with the Federal Reserve Bank.

NOTE 20 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The following disclosures show the hierarchical disclosure framework associated with the level of pricing observations utilized in measuring assets and liabilities at fair value. The three broad levels of pricing observations are as follows:


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

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

Level III:						Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

T a b l e o f Contents

This hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available.

The following table presents the assets reported on the balance sheet at their fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, by level within the fair value hierarchy. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Corporation’s impaired loans using the discounted cash flow valuation technique include temporary changes in payment amounts and the probability of default. Significant increases (decreases) in payment amounts would result in significantly higher (lower) fair value measurements. The probability of default is 0% for impaired loans using the discounted cash flow valuation technique because all defaulted impaired loans are valued using the appraisal of collateral valuation technique.

The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of the Corporation’s impaired loans using the appraisal of collateral valuation technique include appraisal adjustments, which are adjustments to appraisals by management for qualitative factors such as economic conditions and estimated liquidation expenses. The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of the Corporation’s other real estate owned are the same inputs used to value impaired loans using the appraisal of collateral valuation technique.

NOTE 21 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Corporation is required to disclose fair values for its financial instruments. Fair values are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These fair values do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Corporation’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. Also, it is the Corporation’s general practice and intention to hold most of its financial instruments to maturity and not to engage in trading or sales activities. Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Corporation’s financial instruments, fair values are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors. These fair values are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions can significantly affect the fair values. The carrying amounts for cash and cash equivalents, restricted investments in bank stock, bank-owned life insurance, non-time deposits, accrued interest receivable and payable approximate fair value and are considered Level I measurements.

Fair values have been determined by the Corporation using historical data and an estimation methodology suitable for each category of financial instruments. The Corporation’s fair values, methods, and assumptions are set forth below for the Corporation’s other financial instruments.

As certain assets and liabilities, such as deferred tax assets, premises and equipment, and many other operational elements of the Corporation, are not considered financial instruments but have value, the fair value of financial instruments would not represent the full fair value of the Corporation.

The fair values of the Corporation’s financial instruments not required to be measured or reported at fair value are as follows at December 31, 2022 and 2021:

NOTE 22 - REVENUE RECOGNITION

On January 1, 2018, the Corporation adopted ASU No. 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606) and all subsequent ASUs that modified Topic 606 using the modified retrospective method, and applied the guidance to all contracts in scope that were not completed as of January 1, 2018. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under Topic 606, while prior period amounts were not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with our historic accounting under Topic 605.

The core principle of Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, is that an entity recognize revenue at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer. Topic 606 requires entities to exercise more judgment when considering the terms of a contract than under Topic 605, Revenue Recognition. Topic 606 applies to all contracts with customers to provide goods or services in the ordinary course of business, except for contracts that are specifically excluded from its scope.

Topic 606 does not apply to revenue associated with interest income on financial instruments, including loans and securities. Additionally, certain noninterest income streams such as certain credit and debit card fees, income from bank owned life insurance, and gain and losses on sales of loans, equity, lending, and investment securities are out of scope of Topic 606.

Topic 606 is applicable to noninterest revenue streams such as service charges on deposit accounts, merchant income, wire transfer income, check cashing fees, check printing fees, safe deposit box rental fees, life insurance, broker fee's, and brokerage commissions. These revenue streams are largely transactional based and revenue is recognized upon completion of transaction.

T a b l e o f Contents

Principal versus Agent Considerations

When more than one party is involved in providing goods or services to a customer, Topic 606 requires the Corporation to determine whether it is the principal or an agent in these transactions by evaluating the nature of its promise to the customer. An entity is a principal and therefore records revenue on a gross basis if it controls a promised good or service before transferring that good or service to the customer. An entity is an agent and records as revenue the net amount it retains for its agency services if its role is to arrange for another entity to provide the goods or services. The Corporation most commonly acts as a principal and records revenue on a gross basis, except in certain circumstances. As an example, revenues earned from interchange fees, in which the Corporation acts as an agent, are recorded as non-interest income, net of the related expenses paid to the principal. Brokerage and insurance commissions are recognized when The M Group's services to the broker dealer and investment representative are complete.

Debit Card Fees

Interchange fees are one source of debit and credit card income that is comprised of an amount merchants pay card-issuing banks for the processing of their electronic transactions as a form of payment. ATM service charges, check card usage, and POS debit card transactions generate interchange and debit card income. Per Topic 606 interchange and debit card transaction fees are reported net of related network costs. See Note 1 - Recent Accounting Pronouncements. Prior to the adoption of Topic 606, non-interest expense included network costs. Interchange and debit card transaction fees at December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020 are reported on a net basis of $1,464,000 $1,511,000, and $1,280,000, respectively. The below table compares gross interchange and debit card transaction fees net network costs for 2022, 2021, and 2020:

ITEM 9A CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Corporation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Corporation’s management, including the Corporation’s Chief Executive Officer along with the Corporation’s President and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness as of December 31, 2022 of the design and operation of the Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, the Corporation’s Chief Executive Officer along with the Corporation’s President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2022.

There have been no changes in the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management of the Corporation is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. The Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

A material weakness is a significant deficiency (as defined in Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing Standard No. 2), or a combination of significant deficiencies, that results in there being more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by management or employees in the normal course of performing their assigned functions.

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022. Management’s assessment did not identify any material weaknesses in the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting.

In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO") in "Internal Control-Integrated Framework" issued by COSO in May 2013. Because there were no material weaknesses discovered, management believes that, as of December 31, 2022, the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting was effective.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Penns Woods Bancorp, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Penns Woods Bancorp, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2022 and 2021; the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022; and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements (collectively, the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent, with respect to the Company, in accordance with U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Basis for Opinion

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matters

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the Audit Committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements; and (2) involve our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter, in any way, our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

Allowance for Loan Losses (ALL) – Qualitative Factors

Description of the Matter

The Company’s loan portfolio totaled $1.6 billion as of December 31, 2022, and the associated ALL was $15.6 million. As discussed in Notes 1 and 6 to the consolidated financial statements, determining the amount of the ALL requires significant judgment about the collectability of loans, which includes an assessment of qualitative adjustments to reflect the inherent losses that exist in the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date that are not reflected in the historical loss experience. Qualitative adjustments are made based upon changes in lending policies and practices, economic conditions, changes in the loan portfolio mix, trends in loan delinquencies and classified loans, collateral values, and concentrations of credit risk for the commercial loan portfolios.

We identified these qualitative adjustments within the ALL as critical audit matters because they involve a high degree of subjectivity. In turn, auditing management’s judgments regarding the qualitative factors applied in the ALL calculation involved a high degree of subjectivity.

How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit

We gained an understanding of the Company’s process for establishing the ALL, including the qualitative adjustments made to the ALL. We evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of controls over the Company’s ALL process, which included, among others, management’s review and approval controls designed to assess the need and level of qualitative adjustments to the ALL, as well as the reliability of the data utilized to support management’s assessment. We also tested the clerical accuracy of the formulas and information utilized in the calculations.

To test the qualitative adjustments, we evaluated the appropriateness of management’s methodology and assessed whether all relevant risks were reflected in the ALL.

Allowance for Loan Losses (ALL) – Qualitative Factors

How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit

Regarding the measurement of the qualitative adjustments, we evaluated the completeness, accuracy, and relevance of the data and inputs utilized in management’s estimate. Furthermore, we analyzed the changes in the components of the qualitative reserves relative to changes in external market factors, and internal data points that support management’s assessment of the reserves, which included the evaluation of management’s ability to capture and assess relevant data from both external sources and internal reports. Our testing considered both the directional consistency of the reserves as well as the overall magnitude of the adjustments.

We also utilized internal credit review specialists with knowledge to evaluate the appropriateness of management’s risk-rating processes, to ensure that the risk ratings applied to the commercial loan portfolio were reasonable.

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 1999.
