NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2013 AND 2012

1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting and reporting policies followed by Evans Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”), a financial holding company, and its two direct, wholly-owned subsidiaries: (i) Evans Bank, National Association (the “Bank”), and the Bank’s subsidiaries, Evans National Leasing, Inc. (“ENL”), Evans National Holding Corp. (“ENHC”) and Suchak Data Systems, LLC (“SDS”); and (ii) Evans National Financial Services, LLC (“ENFS”), and ENFS’s subsidiary, The Evans Agency, LLC (“TEA”), and TEA’s subsidiaries, Frontier Claims Services, Inc. (“FCS”) and ENB Associates Inc. (“ENBA”), in the preparation of the accompanying interim unaudited consolidated financial statements conform with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and with general practice within the industries in which it operates. Except as the context otherwise requires, the Company and its direct and indirect subsidiaries are collectively referred to in this report as the “Company.”

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and results of operations for the interim periods have been made. Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2012 unaudited consolidated financial statements to conform to the presentation used in 2013. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2013, the Company revised the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the nine month period ended September 30, 2012 to correct a $330 thousand error within “Depreciation and Amortization” and “Changes in Other Assets Affecting Cash Flow.” The Company has assessed the materiality of this correction and concluded, based on qualitative and quantitative considerations, that the adjustments are not material to the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as a whole.

The results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

As a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) System, the Bank is required to hold stock in FHLBNY. The Bank held $1.4 million in FHLBNY stock as of September 30, 2013 and $1.8 million as of December 31, 2012 at amortized cost. The Company regularly evaluates investments in FHLBNY for impairment, considering liquidity, operating performance, capital position, stock repurchase and dividend history. At this time, the Company does not believe any impairment in FHLBNY stock is warranted.

The scheduled maturities of debt and mortgage-backed securities at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 are summarized below. All maturity amounts are contractual maturities. Actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities because certain issuers have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call premiums.

Table of Contents

In regard to municipal securities, the Company’s general investment policy is that in-state securities must be rated at least Moody’s Baa (or equivalent) at the time of purchase. The Company reviews the ratings report and municipality financial statements and prepares a pre-purchase analysis report before the purchase of any municipal securities. Out-of-state issues must be rated by Moody’s at least Aa (or equivalent) at the time of purchase. The Company did not own any out-of-state municipal bonds at September 30, 2013 or December 31, 2012. Bonds rated below A are reviewed periodically to ensure their continued credit worthiness. While purchase of non-rated municipal securities is permitted under the Company’s investment policy, such purchases are limited to bonds issued by municipalities in the Company’s general market area. Those municipalities are typically customers of the Bank whose financial situation is familiar to management. The financial statements of the issuers of non-rated securities are reviewed by the Bank and a credit file of the issuers is kept on each non-rated municipal security with relevant financial information.

Although concerns have been raised in the marketplace recently about the health of municipal bonds, the Company has not experienced any significant credit troubles in this portfolio and does not believe any credit troubles are imminent with respect to its portfolio. Aside from the non-rated municipal securities to local municipalities discussed above that are considered held-to-maturity, all of the Company’s available-for-sale municipal bonds are investment-grade government obligation (“G.O.”) bonds. G.O. bonds are generally considered safer than revenue bonds because they are backed by the full faith and credit of the government while revenue bonds rely on the revenue produced by a particular project. All of the Company’s municipal bonds are issued by municipalities in New York State. To the Company’s knowledge, there has never been a default of a NY G.O. in the history of the state. The Company believes that its risk of loss on default of a G.O. municipal bond for the Company is relatively low. However, historical performance does not guarantee future performance.

Management has assessed the securities available for sale in an unrealized loss position at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 and determined the decline in fair value below amortized cost to be temporary. In making this determination, management considered the period of time the securities were in a loss position, the percentage decline in comparison to the securities’ amortized cost, and the financial condition of the issuer (primarily government or government-sponsored enterprises). In addition, management does not intend to sell these securities and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell these securities before recovery of their amortized cost. Management believes the decline in fair value is primarily related to market interest rate fluctuations and not to the credit deterioration of the individual issuers.

The Company had not recorded any other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) charges as of September 30, 2013 and did not record any OTTI charges during 2012. The gross unrealized losses in the Company’s securities portfolio were at an immaterial level during each of those periods, amounting to less than 1.2% and 1.0% of the total fair value of the securities portfolio at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. Nevertheless, it remains possible that there could be deterioration in the asset quality of the securities portfolio in the future. The credit worthiness of the Company’s portfolio is largely reliant on the ability of U.S. government sponsored agencies such as FHLB, Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA”), Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC”), and municipalities throughout New York State to meet their obligations. In addition, dysfunctional markets could materially alter the liquidity, interest rate, and pricing risk of the portfolio. The relatively stable past performance is not a guarantee for similar performance of the Company’s securities portfolio going forward.

3. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company follows the provisions of ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.” Those provisions relate to financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value and fair value disclosures related to financial assets and liabilities. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value and specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on the nature of the inputs used to develop the fair value measures. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

There are three levels of inputs to fair value measurements:

·	Level 1, meaning the use of quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;

·	Level 2, meaning the use of quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active or are directly or indirectly observable; and

·	Level 3, meaning the use of unobservable inputs.

Observable market data should be used when available.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS MEASURED AT FAIR VALUE ON A RECURRING BASIS

The following table presents for each of the fair-value hierarchy levels as defined in this footnote, those financial instruments which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012:

Securities available for sale

Fair values for securities are determined using independent pricing services and market-participating brokers. The Company’s independent pricing service utilizes evaluated pricing models that vary by asset class and incorporate available trade, bid and other market information for structured securities, cash flow and, when available, loan performance data. Because many fixed income securities do not trade on a daily basis, the evaluated pricing applications apply information as applicable through processes, such as benchmarking of like securities, sector groupings, and matrix pricing, to prepare evaluations. In addition, model processes, such as the Option Adjusted Spread model, are used to assess interest rate impact and develop prepayment scenarios. The models and the process take into account market convention. For each asset class, a team of evaluators gathers information from market sources and integrates relevant credit information, perceived market movements and sector news into the evaluated pricing applications and models. The company’s service provider may occasionally determine that it does have not sufficient verifiable information to value a particular security. In these cases the Company will utilize valuations from another pricing service.

Management believes that it has a sufficient understanding of the third party service’s valuation models, assumptions and inputs used in determining the fair value of securities to enable management to maintain an appropriate system of internal control. On a quarterly basis, the Company reviews changes in the market value of its security portfolio. Individual changes in valuations are reviewed for consistency with general interest rate movements and any known credit concerns for specific securities. Additionally, on an annual basis, the Company has its entire security portfolio priced by a second pricing service to determine consistency with another market evaluator. If, on the Company’s review or in comparing with another servicer, a material difference between pricing evaluations were to exist, the Company may submit an inquiry to the service provider regarding the data used to value a particular security. If the Company determines it has market information that would support a different valuation than the initial evaluation it can submit a challenge for a change to that security’s valuation. There were no material differences in valuations noted in the first, second, and third quarters of 2013 or during fiscal year 2012.

Securities available for sale are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy as the valuation provided by the third-party provider uses observable market data.

Mortgage servicing rights

Mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) do not trade in an active, open market with readily observable prices. Accordingly, the Company obtains the fair value of the MSRs using a third-party pricing provider. The provider determines the fair value by discounting projected net servicing cash flows of the remaining servicing portfolio. The valuation model used by the provider considers market loan prepayment predictions and other economic factors which management considers to be significant unobservable inputs. The fair value of MSRs is mostly affected by changes in mortgage interest rates since rate changes cause the loan prepayment acceleration factors to increase or decrease. All assumptions are market driven. Management has a sufficient understanding of the third party service’s valuation models, assumptions and inputs used in determining the fair value of MSRs to enable management to maintain an appropriate system of internal control. Mortgage servicing rights are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy as the valuation is model driven and primarily based on unobservable inputs.

Table of Contents

The following table summarizes the changes in fair value for mortgage servicing rights during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively:

Impaired loans

The Company evaluates and values impaired loans at the time the loan is identified as impaired, and the fair values of such loans are estimated using Level 3 inputs in the fair value hierarchy. Each loan’s collateral has a unique appraisal and management’s discount of the value is based on factors unique to each impaired loan. The significant unobservable input in determining the fair value is management’s subjective discount on appraisals of the collateral securing the loan, which ranges from 10%-50%. Collateral may consist of real estate and/or business assets including equipment, inventory and/or accounts receivable and the value of these assets is determined based on appraisals by qualified licensed appraisers hired by the Company. Appraised and reported values may be discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of valuation, estimated costs to sell, and/or management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and the client’s business.

The Company has an appraisal policy in which appraisals are obtained upon a commercial loan being downgraded on the Company internal loan rating scale to a 5 (special mention) or a 6 (substandard) depending on the amount of the loan, the type of loan and the type of collateral. All impaired commercial loans are either graded a 6 or 7 on the internal loan rating scale. For consumer loans, the Company obtains appraisals when a loan becomes 90 days past due or is determined to be impaired, whichever occurs first. Subsequent to the downgrade or reaching 90 days past due, if the loan remains outstanding and impaired for at least one year more, management may require another follow-up appraisal. Between receipts of updated appraisals, if necessary, management may perform an internal valuation based on any known changing conditions in the marketplace such as sales of similar properties, a change in the condition of the collateral, or feedback from local appraisers. Impaired loans had a gross value of $19.5 million, with a valuation allowance of $1.3 million, at September 30, 2013, compared to a gross value for impaired loans of $13.6 million, with a valuation allowance of $1.3 million, at December 31, 2012.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments, including those that are not measured and reported at fair value on a recurring basis or nonrecurring basis, were as follows:

Table of Contents

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practical to estimate that value.

Cash and Cash Equivalents. For these short-term instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value. “Cash and Cash Equivalents” includes interest-bearing deposits at other banks.

FHLB and FRB stock. The carrying value of FHLB and FRB stock approximate fair value.

Securities held to maturity. The Company holds certain municipal bonds as held-to-maturity. These bonds are generally small in dollar amount and are issued only by certain local municipalities within the Company’s market area. The original terms are negotiated directly and on an individual basis consistent with our loan and credit guidelines. These bonds are not traded on the open market and management intends to hold the bonds to maturity. The fair value of held-to-maturity securities is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar agreements would be made with municipalities with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities.

Loans and Leases, net. The fair value of fixed rate loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities, net of the appropriate portion of the allowance for loan losses. For variable rate loans, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value. This fair value calculation is not necessarily indicative of the exit price, as defined in ASC 820.

Deposits. The fair value of demand deposits, NOW accounts, muni-vest accounts and regular savings accounts is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of time deposits is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

Junior Subordinated Debentures. The carrying amount of Junior Subordinated Debentures is a reasonable estimate of fair value due to the fact that they bear a floating interest rate that adjusts on a quarterly basis.

Commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. As described in Note 8 - “Contingent Liabilities and Commitments” to these Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company was a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012. Such financial instruments consist of commitments to extend permanent financing and letters of credit. If the options are exercised by the prospective borrowers, these financial instruments will become interest-earning assets of the Company. If the options expire, the Company retains any fees paid by the counterparty in order to obtain the commitment or guarantee. The fees collected for these commitments are recorded as “unearned commitment fees” in Other Liabilities. The carrying value approximates the fair value.

Securities Sold Under Agreement to Repurchase. The fair value of the securities sold under agreement to repurchase approximates its carrying value.

Other Borrowed Funds. The fair value of the short-term portion of other borrowed funds approximates its carrying value. The fair value of the long-term portion of other borrowed funds is estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis based on the Company’s current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

The Bank sells certain fixed rate residential mortgages to FNMA, while maintaining the servicing rights for those mortgages. In the three month period ended September 30, 2013, the Bank did not sell any mortgages to FNMA, as compared with $6.0 million during the three month period ended September 30, 2012. During the nine month period ended September 30, 2013, the Bank sold mortgages to FNMA totaling $0.8 million, as compared with $17.1 million sold for the nine month period ended September 30, 2012. At September 30, 2013, the Bank had a loan servicing portfolio principal balance of $65.8 million upon which it earns servicing fees, as compared with $73.7 million at December 31, 2012. The value of the mortgage servicing rights for that portfolio was $0.5 million at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012. At September 30, 2013, there were no residential mortgage loans held-for-sale, compared with $0.9 million at December 31, 2012. The Company had no commercial loans held-for-sale at September 30, 2013 and at December 31, 2012. The Company has never been contacted by FNMA to repurchase any loans due to improper documentation or fraud.

As noted in Note 1, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. Disclosures related to the basis for accounting for loans and leases, the method for recognizing interest income on loans and leases, the policy for placing loans and leases on nonaccrual status and the subsequent recording of payments and resuming accrual of interest, the policy for determining past due status, a description of the Company’s accounting policies and methodology used to estimate the allowance for loan and lease losses, the policy for charging off loans and leases, the accounting policies for impaired loans, and more descriptive information on the Company’s credit risk ratings are all contained in the Notes to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the Company’s year ended December 31, 2012. Unless otherwise noted in this Form 10-Q, the policies and methodology described in the Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2012 are consistent with those utilized by the Company in the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

Credit Quality Indicators

The Bank monitors the credit risk in its loan portfolio by reviewing certain credit quality indicators (“CQI”). The primary CQI for its commercial mortgage and commercial and industrial (“C&I”) portfolios is the individual loan’s credit risk rating. The following list provides a description of the credit risk ratings that are used internally by the Bank when assessing the adequacy of its allowance for loan and lease losses:

Table of Contents

1-3-Pass

4-Watch

·	5-O.A.E.M. (Other Assets Especially Mentioned) or Special Mention

·	6-Substandard

·	7-Doubtful

8-Loss

The Company’s consumer loans, including residential mortgages and home equities, and commercial leases are not individually risk rated or reviewed in the Company’s loan review process. Consumers are not required to provide the Company with updated financial information as is a commercial customer. Consumer loans also carry smaller balances. Given the lack of updated information since the initial underwriting of the loan and small size of individual loans, the Company uses delinquency status as the credit quality indicator for consumer loans.

There were no changes in the Company’s allowance for loan and lease loss methodology in the nine month period ended September 30, 2013.

The following tables provide data, at the class level, of credit quality indicators of certain loans and leases for the dates specified:

Troubled debt restructurings

The Company had $18.5 million in loans and leases that were restructured in a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) at September 30, 2013, compared with $11.5 million at December 31, 2012. $12.6 million and $6.0 million of those balances were in non-accrual status at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. Any TDR that is placed on non-accrual is not reverted back to accruing status until the borrower makes timely payments as contracted for at least six months. Those loans and leases that are in accruing status have shown evidence of performance for at least six months as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012. One residential mortgage for $0.4 million was restructured under a government assistance program in 2012. All of the Company’s restructurings were allowed in an effort to maximize its ability to collect on loans and leases where borrowers were experiencing financial difficulty. The Company did not engage in any re-modifications during the three or nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. Modifications made to loans in a troubled debt restructuring did not have a material impact on the Company’s net income for the three or nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.

The reserve for a TDR is based upon the present value of the future expected cash flows discounted at the loan’s original effective rate or upon the fair value of the collateral less costs to sell, if the loan is deemed collateral dependent. This reserve methodology is used because all TDR loans are considered impaired. As of September 30, 2013, there were no commitments to lend additional funds to debtors owing on loans or leases whose terms have been modified in TDRs.

The following tables summarize the loans and leases that were classified as troubled debt restructurings as of the dates indicated:

The Company’s TDRs have various agreements that involve deferral of principal payments, or interest-only payments, for a period (usually 12 months or less) to allow the customer time to improve cash flow or sell the property. Other common types of concessions leading to the designation of a TDR are lines of credit that are termed out and extensions of maturities at rates that are less than market given the risk profile of the borrower.

The following table shows the data for TDR activity by type of concession granted to the borrower for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012:

The general practice of the Bank is to work with borrowers so that they are able to pay back their loan or lease in full. If a borrower continues to be delinquent or cannot meet the terms of a TDR and the loan or lease is determined to be uncollectible, the loan or lease will be charged off. The following table presents loans and leases which were classified as TDRs during the previous 12 months which defaulted during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012:

Covered Loans and the Related Allowance

On July 24, 2009, the Bank entered into a definitive purchase and assumption agreement with the FDIC under which the Bank assumed approximately $51.0 million in liabilities, consisting almost entirely of deposits, and purchased substantially all of the assets of Waterford Village Bank. The loan portfolio acquired in the transaction totaled $42.0 million. The loans acquired in that acquisition were referred to as “covered” loans because they were “covered” by a loss sharing agreement with the FDIC. The agreement called for the FDIC to reimburse the Bank for 80% of losses up to $5.6 million and 95% of losses beyond that threshold. At acquisition, the Company marked the covered loan portfolio to its market value and the allowance for loan and lease losses related to the covered loans was zero. Since acquisition, management has provisioned for any incremental increases in estimated credit losses due to deterioration in specific loans or increased risk factors on pools of loans. As a result of the FDIC guarantees, the provision for loan and lease losses and the allowance for loan and lease losses were presented net of FDIC guarantees related to covered loans.

On July 1, 2013, the Company accepted an offer from the FDIC to terminate the loss sharing agreement governing the Company’s “covered” loan portfolio. As a result of the termination of the loss share agreement, the Company recognized $0.6 million in provision for loan and lease losses related to the FDIC guarantee on previously “covered” loans during the third quarter.

5. PER SHARE DATA

The common stock per share information is based upon the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each period. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013, the Company had an average of 51,920 and 42,164 dilutive shares, respectively. The Company had an average of 24,321 and 13,436 dilutive shares for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012, respectively.

Potential common shares that would have the effect of increasing diluted earnings per share are considered to be anti-dilutive and not included in calculating diluted earnings per share. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013, there was an average of 35,089 and 45,487 shares, respectively, that were not included in calculating diluted earnings per share because their effect was anti-dilutive. There were 71,234 and 161,596 potentially anti-dilutive shares for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012, respectively.

8. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND COMMITMENTS

The unaudited consolidated financial statements do not reflect various commitments and contingent liabilities, which arise in the normal course of business, and which involve elements of credit risk, interest rate risk and liquidity risk. These commitments and contingent liabilities consist of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. A summary of the Bank’s commitments and contingent liabilities is as follows:




	September 30,		December 31,
	2013		2012

		(in thousands)

Commitments to extend credit	$	222,959	$	135,028

Standby letters of credit		2,626		8,042

Total	$	225,585	$	143,070

Commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit include some exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the customer. The Bank’s credit policies and procedures for credit commitments and financial guarantees are the same as those for extensions of credit that are recorded on the Company’s unaudited consolidated balance sheets. Because these instruments have fixed maturity dates, and because they may expire without being drawn upon, they do not necessarily represent cash requirements of the Bank. The Bank has not incurred any losses on its commitments and did not record a reserve for its commitments during the first nine months of 2013 or during 2012.

Table of Contents

Certain lending commitments for construction residential mortgage loans are considered derivative instruments under the guidelines of GAAP. The changes in the fair value of these commitments, due to interest rate risk, are not recorded on the consolidated balance sheets as the fair value of these derivatives is not considered material.

The Company is subject to possible litigation proceedings in the normal course of business. As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, there were no claims pending against the Company that management considered material.

9. NET PERIODIC BENEFIT COSTS

On January 31, 2008, the Bank froze its defined benefit pension plan. The plan covered substantially all Company employees. The plan provides benefits that are based on the employees’ compensation and years of service. Under the freeze, eligible employees will receive, at retirement, the benefits already earned through January 31, 2008, but have not accrued any additional benefits since then. As a result, service cost is no longer incurred.

The Bank used an actuarial method of amortizing prior service cost and unrecognized net gains or losses which result from actual expense and assumptions being different than those that are projected. The amortization method the Bank used recognized the prior service cost and net gains or losses over the average remaining service period of active employees.

The Bank also maintains a nonqualified supplemental executive retirement plan covering certain members of the Company’s senior management. The Bank uses an actuarial method of amortizing unrecognized net gains or losses which result from actual expense and assumptions being different than those that are projected. The amortization method the Bank uses recognizes the net gains or losses over the average remaining service period of active employees.

The Bank contributed $185 thousand to the defined benefit pension plan in the first nine months of 2013 and plans to contribute an additional $45 thousand before the end of the year.

The following table presents the net periodic cost for the Bank’s defined benefit pension plan and supplemental executive retirement plan for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012:

10. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2012-06, Subsequent Accounting for an Indemnification Asset Recognized at the Acquisition Date as a Result of a Government-Assisted Acquisition of a Financial Institution. Accounting for a business combination requires that at each subsequent reporting date, an acquirer measure an indemnification asset on the same basis as the indemnified liability or asset, subject to any contractual limitations on its amount, and, for an indemnification asset that is not subsequently measured at its fair value, management’s assessment of the collectability of the indemnification asset. The objective of this ASU is to address the diversity in practice about how to interpret the terms on the same basis and contractual limitations when subsequently measuring an indemnification asset recognized in a government-assisted (Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation) acquisition of a financial institution that includes a loss-sharing agreement (indemnification agreement). The new guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The Company adopted this ASU effective January 1, 2013. The Company was party to an indemnification agreement with the FDIC related to the Company’s acquisition of Waterford Village Bank in July 2009, however, this agreement was terminated effective July 1, 2013. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

ASU 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. The objective of this ASU is to improve the reporting of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income by requiring an entity to report the effect of significant reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the respective line items in net income, if the amount being reclassified is required to be reclassified into net income in its entirety. For other amounts that are not required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures required under U.S. GAAP that provide additional detail about those amounts. This ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The Company adopted this ASU effective January 1, 2013, as reflected herein at Note 6 – “Other Comprehensive Income.”

ASU 2013-11, Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists. The objective of this ASU is to eliminate diversity in practice for presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. The main provision states that an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward. This ASU is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may contain certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. When used in this report, or in the documents incorporated by reference herein, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “seek,” and similar expressions identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include statements regarding the Company’s business plans, prospects, growth and operating strategies, statements regarding the asset quality of the Company’s loan and investment portfolios, and estimates of the Company’s risks and future costs and benefits.

These forward-looking statements are based largely on the expectations of the Company’s management and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to: general economic conditions, either nationally or in the Company’s market areas, that are worse than expected; increased competition among depository or other financial institutions; inflation and changes in the interest rate environment that reduce the Company’s margins or reduce the fair value of financial instruments; changes in laws or government regulations affecting financial institutions, including changes in regulatory fees, monetary policy, and capital requirements; the Company’s ability to enter new markets successfully and capitalize on growth opportunities; the Company’s ability to successfully integrate acquired entities; changes in accounting pronouncements and practices, as adopted by financial institution regulatory agencies, the Financial Accounting Standards Board and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board; changes in consumer spending, borrowing and saving habits; changes in the Company’s organization, compensation and benefit plans; and other factors discussed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as in the Company’s periodic reports filed with the SEC, in particular the “Risk Factors” discussed in Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012. Many of these factors are beyond the Company’s control and are difficult to predict.

Because of these and other uncertainties, the Company’s actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from those contemplated, expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements contained herein. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise forward-looking information, whether as a result of new, updated information, future events or otherwise.

APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and follow general practices within the industries in which it operates. Application of these principles requires management to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes. These estimates, assumptions and judgments are based on information available as of the date of the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. Accordingly, as this information changes, the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements could reflect different estimates, assumptions and judgments. Certain policies inherently have a greater reliance on the use of estimates, assumptions and judgments, and as such, have a greater possibility of producing results that could be materially different than originally reported. Estimates, assumptions and judgments are necessary when assets and liabilities are required to be recorded at fair value, when a decline in the value of an asset not carried on the financial statements at fair value warrants an impairment write-down or valuation reserve to be established, or when an asset or liability needs to be recorded contingent upon a future event. Carrying assets and liabilities at fair value inherently results in more financial statement volatility. The fair values and the information used to record valuation adjustments for certain assets and liabilities are based either on quoted market prices or are provided by other third-party sources, when available. When third-party information is not available, valuation adjustments are estimated in good faith by management primarily through the use of internal cash flow modeling techniques. Refer to Note 3 – “Fair Value Measurements” to the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further detail on fair value measurement.

Significant accounting policies followed by the Company are presented in Note 1 – “Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. These policies, along with the disclosures presented in the other Notes to the Company's Audited Consolidated Financial Statements contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K and in this financial review, provide information on how significant assets and liabilities are presented in the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and how those values are determined.

Based on the valuation techniques used and the sensitivity of financial statement amounts to the methods, assumptions and estimates underlying those amounts, management has identified the determination of the allowance for loan and lease losses and valuation of

Table of Contents

goodwill to be the accounting areas that require the most subjective or complex judgments, and as such, could be most subject to revision as new information becomes available.

Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses

The allowance for loan and lease losses represents management’s estimate of probable losses in the Company’s loan and lease portfolio. Determining the amount of the allowance for loan and lease losses is considered a critical accounting estimate because it requires significant judgment on the part of management and the use of estimates related to the amount and timing of expected future cash flows on impaired loans and leases, estimated losses on pools of homogeneous loans and leases based on historical loss experience and consideration of current economic trends and conditions, all of which may be susceptible to significant change. The loan and lease portfolio also represents the largest asset type on the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets. Note 1 to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, describes the methodology used to determine the allowance for loan and lease losses.

Goodwill

The amount of goodwill reflected in the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements is required to be tested by management for impairment on at least an annual basis. The test for impairment of goodwill on the identified reporting unit is considered a critical accounting estimate because it requires judgment on the part of management and the use of estimates related to the growth assumptions and market multiples used in the valuation model. The goodwill impairment testing is typically performed annually as of December 31st. No impairment charges were incurred in the most recent test and the fair value of the tested reporting unit substantially exceeded its fair value. There were no triggering events in the nine month period ended September 30, 2013 that resulted in an interim impairment test.

ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

Loan and Lease Activity

Total loans and leases grew to $625.6 million at September 30, 2013, a $17.8 million, or 2.9%, increase from total loans and leases of $607.8 million at June 30, 2013, and a $42.7 million, or 7.3%, increase from $582.9 million at December 31, 2012.

Loans secured by real estate were $506.6 million at September 30, 2013, reflecting a $15.2 million, or 3.1%, increase from $491.4 million at June 30, 2013, and a $28.6 million or 6.0% increase from December 31, 2012. The Company’s commercial real estate portfolio has historically been the fastest growing part of the portfolio, however, the largest year-to-date growth of $21.8 million, or 31.9%, was experienced in the Company’s residential mortgage portfolio. In the third quarter of 2013, residential mortgages increased $9.6 million, or 12.0%, since June 30, 2013. Commercial construction and commercial and multi-family loans increased $5.3 million, or 1.5%, since June 30, 2013, and $7.0 million, or 2.0%, since December 31, 2012.

The Company continued to retain more of its originated residential mortgages during the third quarter of 2013, selling fewer loans to FNMA than it has in the past. Residential mortgages increased to $90.0 million at September 30, 2013, reflecting a $9.6 million, or 12.0%, increase from June 30, 2013. Residential mortgage originations increased to $12.8 million and $31.0 million in the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013, respectively, compared with $9.0 million and $24.1 million in the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012, respectively.

The Company continues to focus on commercial and industrial (“C&I”) lending as a way to diversify its loan portfolio, which has historically experienced strong growth rates in real estate loans. Declining line of credit usage and loan payoffs had resulted in a decrease in C&I balances during 2012. In the third quarter of 2013, C&I balances increased $4.8 million or 4.3% from $112.3 million at June 30, 2013 to $117.1 million at September 30, 2013. On a year-to-date basis, C&I loans increased $17.1 million or 17.1% from $100.0 million at December 31, 2012.

The leasing portfolio continued to roll-off under the Company’s 2009 decision to exit the direct financing leasing business. At September 30, 2013, there was no net book value for direct financing leases, due to a $0.3 million direct financing lease receivable and an offsetting $0.3 million mark-to-market balance. Direct financing leases were $0.3 million at June 30, 2013, and $1.6 million at December 31, 2012.

Credit Quality of Loan Portfolio

Total non-performing loans and leases, defined as accruing loans and leases greater than 90 days past due and non-accrual loans and leases, totaled $14.3 million, or 2.29% of total loans and leases outstanding, as of September 30, 2013, compared with $13.5 million, or 2.21% of total loans and leases outstanding, at June 30, 2013, and $8.2 million, or 1.41%, of total loans and leases outstanding at December 31, 2012. The year-to-date increase of $6.1 million, or 73.9%, in non-performing loans and leases is due to a single commercial mortgage credit relationship that moved into non-accrual status in the second quarter of 2013. Management believes that this commercial mortgage loan is well-secured by collateral value, and was successfully restructured with a new borrower in the current quarter.

In the third quarter of 2013, commercial credits graded as “special mention” and “substandard” increased $7.3 million from $21.5 million at June 30, 2013 to $28.8 million at September 30, 2013, primarily due to an increase in commercial and multi-family mortgages classified as “special mention” during the third quarter. “Special mention” and “substandard” commercial credits have increased $12.8 million from $16.0 million as of December 31, 2012, primarily due to a $7.9 million downgrade to of a well-secured commercial mortgage to “substandard” in the second quarter of 2013. As noted in Note 4 to these Unaudited Financial Statements, internal risk ratings are the credit quality indicators used by the Company’s management to determine the appropriate allowance for loan and lease losses for commercial credits. “Special mention” and “substandard” loans are weaker credits with a higher risk of loss than “pass” or “watch” credits. As of September 30, 2013, $17.0 million, or 92.1%, of the $18.4 million “substandard” credits were identified as impaired, and thus, individually evaluated for specific reserves.

The allowance for loan and lease losses totaled $10.9 million, or 1.74% of total loans and leases outstanding as of September 30, 2013, compared with $10.3 million, or 1.69% of total loans and leases outstanding as of June 30, 2013, and $9.7 million or 1.67% at December 31, 2012. The $1.2 million increase in the allowance from December 31, 2012 resulted from a $0.6 million provision in the third quarter of 2013 due to the termination of a loss share agreement with the FDIC, a $0.8 million provision for loan and lease losses recorded during the first nine months of 2013, and minimal net charge-offs of less than $0.2 million during the first nine months of the year. The net charge-off (recovery) ratio in the third quarter of 2013 equated to 0.09% ratio of average net loans and leases, compared with a ratio of 0.31% in the third quarter of 2012.

The third quarter coverage ratio of the allowance for loan and lease losses to non-performing loans and leases of 76.1% remained consistent with the prior quarter of 76.2%, and decreased from 118% at December 31, 2012, due to the increase in non-performing loans and leases in the first nine months of 2013, as discussed above.

Investing Activities

Total securities were $96.3 million at September 30, 2013, compared with $96.5 million at June 30, 2013, and $95.8 million at December 31, 2012, respectively. Interest-bearing deposits at other banks, which consist of overnight funds kept at correspondent banks and the Federal Reserve, decreased to $42.7 million at September 30, 2013 from $59.8 million at June 30, 2013 and $78.1 million at December 31, 2012. Interest-bearing cash decreased in the third quarter due to loan growth and bank-owned life insurance purchases. Securities and interest-bearing deposits at correspondent banks made up 20.1% of the Bank’s total average interest earning assets in the third quarter, compared with 23.0% and 20.0% in the second quarter of 2013 and third quarter of 2012, respectively.

The Company’s highest concentration in its securities portfolio was in tax-advantaged debt securities issued by state and political subdivisions with 34.8% at September 30, 2013, compared with 33.7% at June 30, 2013 and 32.9% at December 31, 2012. The concentration in U.S. government-sponsored agency bonds was 29.5% of the total securities portfolio at September 30, 2013, compared with 30.5% at June 30, 2013 and 29.6% at December 31, 2012. U.S. government-sponsored mortgage-backed securities comprised 31.8% of the securities portfolio at September 30, 2013, compared with 32.0% and 33.7% at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.

Management believes that the credit quality of the securities portfolio as a whole is strong as the portfolio has no individual securities in a significant unrealized loss position. While interest rates have been near historic lows, long-term rates increased in the third and second quarters of 2013, compared to the first quarter of 2013 and fourth quarter of 2012. As a result, the net unrealized gain position of the available-for-sale investment portfolio decreased from $4.0 million and $1.3 million at December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2013, respectively, to $1.1 million at September 30, 2013.

Table of Contents

The Company monitors extension and prepayment risk in the securities portfolio to limit potential exposures. Available-for-sale securities with a total fair value of $75.5 million at September 30, 2013, as compared with $77.0 million at June 30, 2013 and $68.0 million at December 31, 2012, were pledged as collateral to secure public deposits and for other purposes required or permitted by law. The Company has no direct exposure to subprime mortgages, nor does the Company hold private mortgage-backed securities, credit default swaps, or FNMA or FHLMC preferred stock investments in its investment portfolio.

Funding Activities

Total deposits at September 30, 2013 were $702.6 million, compared with $692.4 million and $679.0 million at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, reflecting a 1.5% increase from second quarter 2013 and a 3.5% increase from fourth quarter 2012. The increase in deposit balances since the second quarter of 2013 and the fourth quarter of 2012 was driven by growth in non-interest bearing demand deposit products. Demand deposits have increased $7.6 million, or 5.7%, and $17.0 million, or 13.8%, since June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.

The Company’s retail deposit growth vehicle for the last three years has been its complementary Better Checking and Better Savings products, which are included in the NOW and regular savings deposit categories, respectively, on the Company’s balance sheet. The Better Checking product is unique in the Bank’s Western New York footprint as it pays a premium interest rate as a reward to customers who demonstrate a deep relationship with the Bank as evidenced by regular use of their debit card, use of direct deposit, and electronic statements. However, the growth in NOW and savings deposits slowed in the first three quarters of 2013 as the Better Checking and Better Savings products begin to mature and the Company continued to lower rates on selected deposit products given the Company’s current excess liquidity and declining net interest margin in this extended low rate environment.

In the third quarter of 2013, time deposits slightly increased to $112.3 million from $112.1 million at June 30, 2013, and increased $3.4 million, or 3.1%, from December 31, 2012. Time deposit rates remain near historic lows, resulting in balance declines or low growth for the past three years, as customers have preferred liquid savings deposits.

Other borrowings, which typically include the Bank’s overnight line of credit and other advances with the FHLBNY, were $9.0 million at September 30, 2013 and June 30, 2013, and $19.0 million at December 31, 2012. In the first quarter of 2013, a $7.0 million advance with FHLBNY matured and was not replaced, in addition to a $3.0 million maturity of an FHLBNY advance in the second quarter of 2013. The Company remains in an overall liquid position, and therefore has not needed to replace or add to its wholesale borrowings.

Net Income

Net income was $2.4 million in the third quarter of 2013, a 14.7% increase from $2.1 million in the third quarter of 2012. The improvement in net income reflects a combination of higher net interest income, lower non-interest expense and increased fee income, partially offset by an increase in the provision for loan and lease losses. Return on average equity increased to 12.50% for the third quarter of 2013, compared with 11.60% in the third quarter of 2012.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company recorded net income of $6.2 million, or $1.47 per diluted share, a 3.0% increase from net income of $6.0 million, or $1.45 per diluted share, in the same period in 2012. The return on average equity was 10.65% for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2013, compared with 11.15% for the same period in 2012.

Other Results of Operations – Quarterly Comparison

Net interest income was $7.2 million for the 2013 third quarter, up 3.3% when compared with the third quarter of 2012 and up 2.5% from the trailing second quarter of 2013. Growth in interest-earning assets drove the increase from the third quarter of 2012, while growing loans and non-interest bearing demand deposits were responsible for the increase over the trailing quarter.

Net interest margin improved 11 basis points in the 2013 third quarter to 3.79% compared with 3.68% in the trailing second quarter. Net interest margin was also up from the 2012 third quarter rate of 3.76%. The increase in net interest margin from the prior-year period was due to a 27 basis point decrease in pricing on Evans’ interest bearing liabilities, partially offset by a 19 basis point decrease in the yield on interest-earning assets.

The provision for loan and lease losses increased in the 2013 third quarter by $0.7 million from the trailing second quarter to $0.8 million, largely due to the termination of the FDIC loss share agreement during the quarter. In the third quarter of 2009, the Company engaged in a FDIC-assisted acquisition of Waterford Village Bank subject to FDIC indemnification for 80% of future losses relating to the acquired, or covered, loan portfolio. In the current quarter, the Company accepted an offer from the FDIC to settle the indemnification on the remaining covered loans. As a result of the termination of the loss share agreement, a $0.6 million loan loss provision was realized related to the 80% FDIC guarantee of estimated losses on covered loans, and a corresponding gain of $0.7 million with the settlement of the indemnification asset. The prior-year period had a provision of $9 thousand and the trailing second quarter of 2013 had a provision of $80 thousand.

Non-interest income of $2.6 million was 26.7% of total revenue in the third quarter of 2013, down $0.6 million, or 18.6%, from the prior-year period. The decrease was due mainly to a $1.6 million loss on a tax credit investment in a community-based project in the current quarter, partially offset by a $0.7 million gain realized from the termination of the FDIC loss sharing agreement, as discussed above. The loss on the tax credit investment represents a write-off of an investment, with the recognition of an offsetting tax credit benefit realized in the quarter, included in current income tax provision. Insurance agency revenue of $1.9 million was up $132 thousand, or 7.4%, from the 2012 third quarter, due mostly to increases in profit sharing. Service charges on deposits increased 10.9% to $540 thousand from the prior-year period as a result of growing commercial deposit transactional relationships which have historically higher fees. Compared with the trailing second quarter of 2013, total non-interest income decreased by 18.5% mostly due to the loss on tax credit investment.

Total non-interest expense was $7.3 million in the third quarter of 2013, a decrease of 0.1% from the third quarter of 2012. Overall strong expense control drove these results. Personnel expenses, the largest expense item for the Company, were down 3.0% from the prior-year period. Also helping to reduce expenses were lower maintenance and technology expenses. Maintenance was down $41 thousand, or 19.5%, compared with the third quarter of 2012 and technology expenses were $21 thousand, or 6.6%, lower than the prior-year period.

As a result, the Company’s third quarter efficiency ratio improved to 68.59% compared with 71.64% during the prior-year period. The efficiency ratio excludes the one-time $0.7 million gain on termination of the FDIC loss share agreement and the $1.6 million loss on tax credit investment.

An income tax benefit of $779 thousand was recognized for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, compared to an income tax expense of $660 thousand in the prior-year period. The difference is driven by a $1.8 million tax credit benefit realized in the third quarter of 2013 relating to a historic tax credit investment in a community project, as discussed above. Excluding the impact of the historic tax credit and the write-off of the tax credit investment recognized in non-interest income, the current quarter effective tax rate was 31.8%, compared with an effective tax rate of 23.6% in the third quarter of 2012. The tax rate variance from prior year period was due to the release of a reserve previously recorded for the 2008 tax year and resolved in the third quarter of 2012.

Other Results of Operations – Year-to-Date Comparison

Net interest income was $21.0 million for the first nine months of 2013, up $0.3 million or 1.6% from the first nine months of 2012. The increase in net interest income from prior year-to-date net interest income is primarily attributed to a 27.8% decrease in interest expense.

The Company’s net interest margin decreased by 15 basis points to 3.70% in the first nine months of 2013, compared with 3.85% in the first nine months of 2012. While average interest-earning assets increased by 5.5% when compared to the prior year, yields declined 39 basis points due to the low-rate environment. This decrease was partially offset by a 31 basis point reduction in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities from 1.00% in the first nine months of 2012 to 0.69% in the first nine months of 2013.

Provision for loan and lease losses increased $1.2 million in the first nine months of 2013, when compared to the first nine months of 2012. The year-over-year increase is attributed to a $0.6 million in provision recognized in the third quarter of 2013 due to the termination of a loss share agreement with the FDIC, a $0.8 million provision for loan and lease losses recorded during the first nine months of 2013, and minimal net charge-offs less than $0.2 million during the first nine months of the year.

Non-interest income for the first nine months of 2013 decreased $0.4 million or 4.2% from the prior year period to $9.1 million, representing 30.3% of total revenue for the first nine months of 2013 compared with 31.6% of total revenue for the first nine months of 2012. A $1.6 million loss from the write-off of the historic tax credit investment in a community-based project in the current quarter accounted for a significant portion of the decrease, when compared with the prior year period, partially offset by a $0.7 million gain realized from the termination of the FDIC loss sharing agreement. Bank charges increased 12.4% in the first nine months of 2013, compared with the prior year period. Insurance service and fees increased by $0.3 million or 5.0% in the first nine months of 2013 compared with the first nine months of 2012, driven by increases in profit-sharing income. A 90.3% decrease in premiums on loans sold partially offset the increases in bank charges and insurance agency revenue, as the Company held more residential mortgages in portfolio in the first nine months of 2013, as compared with the prior year period.

Total non-interest expense increased 0.4% in the first nine months of 2013 from the first nine months of 2012. The slight increase reflects a $0.2 million, or 11.9%, increase in occupancy expenses and a $0.1 million, or 8.1%, increase in technology and communications, offset by decreases in amortization expense of 37.3% and advertising and public relations of 13.7%. The increase in occupancy expense is due to a $0.1 million write-off of software in the first quarter of 2013, while the decrease in amortization expense relates to insurance agency acquisitions that have fully amortized. The year over year decrease in advertising expenses was driven by 2012 advertising campaigns geared toward attracting customers affected by a local competitor who had exited the market.

The Company’s efficiency ratio for the first nine months of 2013 improved to 69.39% compared with 70.48% during the prior-year period. The efficiency ratio for the first nine months of 2013 was normalized for the one-time $0.7 million gain on termination of the FDIC loss share agreement and the $1.6 million loss on tax credit investment.

Income tax expense for the first nine months ended September 30, 2013, was $1.0 million, representing an effective tax rate of 13.6%, compared with an effective tax rate of 29.9% in the prior year period. Excluding the impact of the historic tax credit and the write-off of the tax credit investment recognized in non-interest income, the effective tax rate for the first nine months of 2013 was 31.9%, compared with the prior year effective tax rate of 29.9%. The year over year increase in the effective rate was primarily due to the prior year period release of reserve.

CAPITAL

The Company consistently maintains regulatory capital ratios significantly above the federal “well capitalized” standard, including a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 10.27% and 9.69% at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. Book value per share of the Company’s common stock was $18.72 at September 30, 2013, compared with $17.94 at December 31, 2012. Tangible book value per share (a non-GAAP measure) at September 30, 2013 was $16.76, compared with $15.92 at December 31, 2012. The increase in both book value and tangible book value per share is a result of the Company’s $6.2 million in net income.

On July 2, 2013, the Federal Reserve Board approved the final Basel III capital rule set, effective for reporting periods after January 1, 2015. The Company has assessed the impact of the final rule set on capital, and has determined it to be immaterial due to the Company’s eligibility for permanent elections and grandfathered provisions under the final rule set.

Table of Contents

Tangible book value per share is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company calculates tangible book value per share by dividing tangible book value by the number of common shares outstanding, as compared to GAAP book value per share, which the Company calculates by dividing GAAP book value by the number of common shares outstanding. Management believes that this information is consistent with treatment by bank regulatory agencies, which exclude intangible assets from the calculation of risk-based capital ratios. Accordingly, management believes that this non-GAAP financial measure provides information that is important to investors and that is useful in understanding the Company’s capital position and ratios. Further, management believes that presentation of this measure, together with the accompanying reconciliation, provides a complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the Company’s business and allows investors to view the Company’s performance in a manner similar to management, the financial services industry, bank stock analysts and regulatory agencies. However, this non-GAAP financial measure is supplemental and is not a substitute for an analysis based on GAAP financial measures. Note that other companies may use different calculations for this measure, and therefore the Company’s presentation of tangible book value per share may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Investors should review the Company’s consolidated financial statements in their entirety and should not rely on any single financial measure.

A reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure, tangible book value per share, to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, book value, is set forth in the following table:

On August 28, 2013, the Company declared a cash dividend of $0.26 per share on the Company’s outstanding common stock. The dividend was paid on October 9, 2013 to shareholders of record as of September 18, 2013.

LIQUIDITY

The Bank utilizes cash flows from the investment portfolio and federal funds sold balances to manage the liquidity requirements related to loan demand and deposit fluctuations. The Bank also has many borrowing options. As a member of the FHLB the Bank is able to borrow funds at competitive rates. Advances of up to $152.6 million can be drawn on the FHLB via an Overnight Line of Credit Agreement between the Bank and the FHLB. An amount equal to 25% of the Bank’s total assets could be borrowed through the advance programs under certain qualifying circumstances. The Bank also has the ability to purchase up to $14.0 million in federal funds from its correspondent banks. By placing sufficient collateral in safekeeping at the Federal Reserve Bank, the Bank could borrow at the discount window. The Bank’s liquidity needs also can be met by more aggressively pursuing time deposits, or accessing the brokered time deposit market, including the Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service (“CDARS”) network. The Company’s primary source of liquidity is dividends from the Bank. Additionally, the Company has access to capital markets as a funding source.

Cash flows from the Bank’s investment portfolio are laddered, so that securities mature at regular intervals, to provide funds from principal and interest payments at various times as liquidity needs may arise. Contractual maturities are also laddered, with consideration as to the volatility of market prices. At September 30, 2013, approximately 3.6% of the Bank’s securities had contractual maturity dates of one year or less and approximately 27.2% had maturity dates of five years or less.

Management, on an ongoing basis, closely monitors the Company’s liquidity position for compliance with internal policies, and believes that available sources of liquidity are adequate to meet funding needs in the normal course of business. As part of that monitoring process, management calculates the 90-day liquidity each month by analyzing the cash needs of the Bank. Included in the calculation are liquid assets and potential liabilities. Management stresses the potential liabilities calculation to ensure a strong liquidity position. Included in the calculation are assumptions of some significant deposit run-off as well as funds needed for loan closings and investment purchases. At September 30, 2013, in the Company’s internal stress test, the Company had net short-term liquidity of $106.8 million as compared with $75.5 million at December 31, 2012. Available assets of $144.9 million, divided by public and purchased funds of $116.4 million, resulted in a long-term liquidity ratio of 124% at September 30, 2013, compared with 155% at December 31, 2012.

Management does not anticipate engaging in any activities, either currently or in the long term, for which adequate funding would not be available and which would therefore result in significant pressure on liquidity. However, continued economic recession could negatively impact the Company’s liquidity.

The Company believes that the Bank maintains a sufficient level of U.S. government and government agency securities and New York State municipal bonds that can be pledged as collateral for municipal deposits.

ITEM 3 - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Additional information responsive to this Item is contained in the Liquidity section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, which information is incorporated herein by reference.

Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and/or interest rates of the Bank’s financial instruments. The primary market risk the Company is exposed to is interest rate risk. The core banking activities of lending and deposit-taking expose the Bank to interest rate risk, which occurs when assets and liabilities reprice at different times and by different amounts as interest rates change. As a result, net interest income earned by the Bank is subject to the effects of changing interest rates. The Bank measures interest rate risk by calculating the variability of net interest income in future periods under various interest rate scenarios using projected balances for interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Management’s philosophy toward interest rate risk management is to limit the variability of net interest income to changes in net interest rates. The balances of financial instruments used in the projections are based on expected growth from forecasted business opportunities, anticipated prepayments of loans, and expected maturities of investment securities, loans and deposits. Management supplements the modeling technique described above with analysis of market values of the Bank’s financial instruments and changes to such market values given changes in the interest rates.

The Bank’s Asset-Liability Committee, which includes members of senior management, monitors the Bank’s interest rate sensitivity with the aid of a model that considers the impact of ongoing lending and deposit taking activities, as well as interrelationships in the magnitude and timing of the repricing of financial instruments, including the effect of changing interest rates on expected prepayments and maturities. When deemed prudent, management has taken actions, and intends to do so in the future, to mitigate exposure to interest rate risk through the use of on- or off-balance sheet financial instruments. Possible actions include, but are not limited to, changing the pricing of loan and deposit products, and modifying the composition of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, and reliance on other financial instruments used for interest rate risk management purposes.

The following table demonstrates the possible impact of changes in interest rates on the Bank’s net interest income over a 12-month period of time:

Many assumptions were utilized by management to calculate the impact that changes in interest rates may have on the Bank’s net interest income. The more significant assumptions related to the rate of prepayments of mortgage-related assets, loan and deposit volumes and pricing, and deposit maturities. The Bank assumed immediate changes in rates including 200 basis point rate changes. In the event that the 200 basis point rate changes cannot be achieved, the applicable rate changes are limited to lesser amounts such that interest rates cannot be less than zero. These assumptions are inherently uncertain and, as a result, the Bank cannot precisely predict the impact of changes in interest rates on net interest income. Actual results may differ significantly due to the timing, magnitude, and frequency of interest rate changes in market conditions and interest rate differentials (spreads) between maturity/repricing categories, as well as any actions such as those previously described, which management may take to counter such changes. In light of the uncertainties and assumptions associated with the process, the amounts presented in the table and changes in such amounts are not considered significant to the Bank’s projected net interest income.

ITEM 4 - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of September 30, 2013 (the end of the period covered by this Report). Based on that evaluation, the Company’s principal executive and principal financial officers concluded that as of September 30, 2013 the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

No changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting were identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 under the Exchange Act that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
