NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2010 AND 2009
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, Inc. (“SDS”); and (ii) Evans National Financial Services, Inc. (“ENFS”), and ENFS’s subsidiary, The Evans Agency, Inc. (“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 2009 unaudited consolidated financial statements to conform to the presentation used in 2010.
The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2010 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, 2009. The Company has evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition and/or disclosure through the date of filing.
2. SECURITIES

Available for sale securities with a total fair value of $69.9 million and $65.2 million at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively, were pledged as collateral to secure public deposits and for other purposes required or permitted by law.
The Company uses the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York (“FHLBNY”) as its primary source of overnight funds and also has several long-term advances with FHLBNY. The Company had a total of $27.0 million and $46.1 million in borrowed funds with FHLBNY at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. The Company has placed sufficient collateral in the form of residential and commercial real estate loans at FHLBNY that meet FHLB collateral requirements. As a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) System, the Bank is required to hold stock in FHLBNY. The Bank held $2.0 million and $2.7 million in FHLBNY stock as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively, at fair value.
There are 12 branches of the FHLB, including New York. Several members have warned that they have either breached risk-based capital requirements or that they are close to breaching those requirements. To conserve capital, some FHLB branches are suspending dividends, cutting dividend payments, and not buying back excess FHLB stock that members hold. To the extent that one FHLB branch cannot meet its obligations to pay its share of the system’s debt other FHLB branches can be called upon to make the payment.
Systemic weakness in the FHLB could result in impairment of the Company’s FHLB stock. However, FHLBNY currently meets all of its capital requirements, continues to redeem excess stock for members, and has the expressed ability and intent to continue paying dividends. It has maintained a AAA credit rating with a stable outlook. Due to the relatively strong financial health of FHLBNY, we conclude that there is no impairment in the Bank’s FHLB stock as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009.
The scheduled maturities of debt and mortgage-backed securities at June 30, 2010 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.

Management has assessed the securities available for sale in an unrealized loss position at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 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 has not recorded any other-than-temporary impairment charges in 2010 or 2009, gross unrealized losses amount to only 0.1% of the total fair value of the securities portfolio at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, and the gross unrealized loss position has decreased by $136 thousand from December 31, 2009 to June 30, 2010. 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, expands related disclosure requirements 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;

11


Table of Contents

  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.
At June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments were as follows:
                                 
    June 30, 2010     December 31, 2009

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.
Securities. Fair values for available-for-sale securities are determined using independent pricing services and market-participating brokers. The pricing service and brokers use a variety of techniques to arrive at fair value including market maker bids, quotes, and pricing models. Inputs to their pricing models include recent trades, benchmark interest rates, spreads, and actual and projected cash flows. Management obtains a single market quote or price estimate for each security. These quoted prices reflect current information based on orderly transactions. These are considered Level 2 inputs under ASC 820.
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. 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.

Table of Contents

Other Borrowed Funds and Securities Sold Under Agreement to Repurchase. 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.
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 7 — “Contingent Liabilities and Commitments” to these Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company was a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009. 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 fair value of commitments is estimated based upon fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the counterparties. For fixed-rate commitments, the fair value estimation takes into consideration an interest rate risk factor. The fair value of guarantees and letters of credit is based on fees currently charged for similar agreements. The fair value of these off-balance sheet items at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 approximates the recorded amounts of the related fees, which are not considered material.
The following table presents the fair-value hierarchy levels for those financial instruments disclosed in the previous table which are measured at fair value on both a recurring and non-recurring basis at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009:

Certain assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis; that is, they are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of impairment). For the Company, these include impaired loans and goodwill and intangible assets. 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. Fair value is estimated based on the value of the collateral securing these loans. 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. Impaired loans had a gross value of $9.0 million, with a valuation allowance of $1.5 million, at June 30, 2010, compared to a gross value for loans and leases of $8.8 million, with a valuation allowance of $1.2

million, at December 31, 2009. The changes in Level 3 assets measured at estimated fair value during the six months ended June 30, 2010 are as follows:

The Company measures the fair value of its reporting units annually, as of December 31st, using Level 3 inputs, utilizing the market value and income methods to determine if its goodwill and intangible assets are impaired. When using the cash flow models, management considers historical information, the Company’s operating budget, and the Company’s strategic goals in projecting net income and cash flows for the next five years. Due to the fact that the Company’s stock price was below the book value per share at June 30, 2010, management performed a goodwill impairment test at June 30, 2010. Management valued TEA, the reporting unit with goodwill, using cash flow modeling techniques. As a test for reasonableness, management also ascribed a value to the total Company by adjusting the market capitalization by accounting for stock market volatility and a control premium. Management did not use other transactions for comparable valuation multiples to earnings for the total Company because there was not a meaningful sample of similar transactions to gain any comfort from using them for valuation purposes. The methodology used in the second quarter 2010 test was identical to those used in the test performed as of December 31, 2009 and described in more detail in the Application of Critical Accounting Estimates section of Item 7 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009. There were no impairment charges as a result of the tests performed on June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009.
4. ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN AND LEASE LOSSES
The provision for loan and lease losses represents the amount charged against the Bank’s earnings to maintain an allowance for probable loan and lease losses based on management’s evaluation of the loan and lease portfolio at the balance sheet date. Factors considered by the Bank’s management in establishing the allowance include: the collectability of individual loans and leases, current loan and lease concentrations, charge-off history, delinquent loan and lease percentages, the fair value of the collateral, input from regulatory agencies, and general economic conditions.
On a quarterly basis, management of the Bank meets to review and determine the adequacy of the allowance for loan and lease losses. In making this determination, the Bank’s management analyzes the ultimate collectability of the loans and leases in its portfolio by incorporating feedback provided by the Bank’s internal loan and lease staff, an independent internal loan and lease review function and information provided by examinations performed by regulatory agencies.
The analysis of the allowance for loan and lease losses is composed of two components: specific credit allocation and general portfolio allocation. The specific credit allocation includes a detailed review of each impaired loan and allocation is made based on this analysis. Factors may include the appraisal value of the collateral, the age of the appraisal, the type of collateral, the performance of the loan to date, the performance of the borrower’s business based on financial statements, and legal judgments involving the borrower. The general portfolio allocation consists of an assigned reserve percentage based on the historical loss experience and other qualitative factors of the loan or lease category.
The general portfolio allocation is segmented into pools of loans with similar characteristics. Separate pools of loans include similar types of loans as well as pools that contain loans with similar credit characteristics. These credit characteristics include debtor cash flow and payment history. The qualitative factors applied to the general

portfolio allocation reflect management’s evaluation of various conditions. The conditions evaluated include the following: industry and regional conditions; seasoning of the loan and lease portfolio and changes in the composition of and growth in the loan and lease portfolio; the strength and duration of the business cycle; existing general economic and business conditions in the lending areas; credit quality trends in non-accruing loans and leases; timing of the identification of downgrades; historical loan and lease charge-off experience; and the results of bank regulatory examinations.
The following table sets forth information regarding the allowance for loan and lease losses for the six month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009.

5. PER SHARE DATA
The common stock per share information is based upon the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each period. The Company had 3,663 and 3,193 dilutive shares for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2010. There were no potential dilutive shares for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2009.
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 six months periods ended June 30, 2010 there were approximately 168,808 and 169,725 shares, respectively, that were not included in calculating diluted earnings per share because their effect was anti-dilutive. There were 167,704 and 174,007 potentially anti-dilutive shares for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2009.

7. 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:

Table of Contents

                 
    June 30, 2010     December 31, 2009  
    (in thousands)  
Commitments to extend credit
  $ 104,175     $ 90,994  
 
               
Standby letters of credit
    3,766       3,316  
 
           
 
               
Total
  $ 107,941     $ 94,310  
 
           
Commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit include some exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance of 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 during the past two years.
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 June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, there were no claims pending against the Company that management considered material.
8. 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 do not accrue any additional benefits. 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 experience 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 contributed $150,000 to its defined benefit pension plan in July 2010.
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 following table presents the net periodic cost for the Bank’s defined benefit pension plan and supplemental executive retirement plan for the six month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009:

9. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
On May 14, 2010, the Company issued 1,222,000 shares of common stock in a registered public offering at a price of $12.00 per share. The Company offered 1,125,000 shares and granted the underwriter an over-allotment option of 97,000 shares, which was exercised. After an underwriting discount of $0.78 per share, or $1.0 million, and expenses of $0.3 million, the net proceeds of the offering were $13.4 million. Expenses included legal and accounting advisory fees, printing and filing costs, and registration expenses. The Company intends to use the proceeds of the offering for general corporate purposes.
10. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2010-18, Effect of a Loan Modification When the Loan Is Part of a Pool That Is Accounted for as a Single Asset. A final EITF Consensus was reached on modifications of loans that are accounted for within a pool. Many financial institutions have purchased loans evidencing credit deterioration at the time of acquisition (purchased credit impaired loans). Those loans may be grouped together and accounted for on a pooled basis (i.e., as a single asset) if they have common risk characteristics. When a loan is accounted for as part of a pool, only limited circumstances allow it to be removed and accounted for separately. Because of recent increases in both the volume of loans accounted for in pools and loan modifications, an issue was raised about whether a loan modification constituting a troubled-debt restructuring would require the loan to be removed from a pool and accounted for separately. The new guidance clarifies that a loan accounted for as part of a pool of purchased credit impaired loans should remain in the pool after a modification, even if that modification would otherwise be considered a troubled-debt restructuring. The new guidance is effective for interim periods ending after July 15, 2010. The Company will adopt ASU 2010-18 for the interim period ended September 30, 2010. While the standard will not have an impact at adoption, it will impact the accounting for future purchases of pools of credit impaired loans.

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 (such as the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, discussed in greater detail below), including changes in regulatory fees 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, 2009. Many of these factors are beyond the Company’s control and are difficult to predict.
There have been historical disruptions in the financial system in recent months and many lenders and financial institutions have reduced or ceased to provide funding to borrowers, including other lending institutions. The availability of credit, confidence in the entire financial sector, and stability in financial markets has been adversely affected. These disruptions are likely to have some impact on all institutions in the U.S. banking and financial industries.
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

20


Table of Contents

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, 2009. 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 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, 2009, 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 on December 31st. Since the stock price of the Company was below the book value per share at June 30, 2010, another goodwill impairment test was performed. No impairment charges were incurred as a result of the test.
RECENT LEGISLATION
The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Act”) was signed into law on July 21, 2010. The Act contains numerous and wide-ranging reforms to the structure and operation of the U.S. financial system. Among the Act’s significant regulatory changes are (i) the imposition of more stringent capital requirements on bank holding companies by, among other things, imposing leverage ratios and prohibiting new trust preferred issuances from counting as Tier 1 capital; (ii) making permanent the temporary increase in FDIC deposit insurance coverage from $100,000 to $250,000 and providing for unlimited deposit insurance on noninterest-bearing transaction accounts, together with an increase in the minimum Deposit Insurance Fund reserve requirement and a change in the assessment base from deposits to net assets; (iii) the creation of the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection, a new financial consumer protection agency, which is empowered to promulgate new consumer protection regulations and revise existing regulations in many areas of consumer compliance; (iv) provisions permitting states to adopt stricter consumer protection laws and permitting state attorneys general to enforce rules issued by the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection; (v) increased regulation of derivatives and hedging transactions and restrictions on the Company’s ability to engage in certain proprietary trading and investing activities; (vi) limitations on debit card interchange fees; (vii) the imposition of new disclosure and other requirements related to corporate governance and executive compensation; and (viii) the creation of the Financial

Stability Oversight Council, with responsibility for identifying and monitoring systemic risks posed by financial firms, activities and practices.
The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of the Act on its business, financial condition and results of operations. Management expects that some provisions of the Act may have adverse effects on the Company, such as the cost of complying with the numerous new regulations and disclosure and reporting requirements mandated by the Act. Portions of the Act become effective at different times, and many of the Act’s provisions consist of general statements directing various regulators to issue more detailed rules. Consequently, the full scope of the Act’s impact on the financial system in general and the Company in particular cannot be predicted at this time.
ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
Loan and Lease Activity
Total loans and leases grew to $503.0 million at June 30, 2010, reflecting a $3.4 million or 0.7% increase from March 31, 2010 and a 2.7% increase from December 31, 2009. Loans secured by real estate were $410.1 million at June 30, 2010, an increase of $4.8 million or 1.2% from March 31, 2010 and a $20.6 million or 5.3% increase from December 31, 2009. Commercial and multi-family real estate growth was flat in the second quarter after growing $14.7 million in the first quarter. The two portfolios that grew the most in the second quarter were commercial construction and home equity lines of credit.
Over the past couple years, some of the Bank’s larger banking competitors and the conduit markets have curtailed their lending activities somewhat and consequently have created opportunities in the local commercial real estate market for smaller banks, such as the Bank. The increased opportunities have resulted in the Bank’s strong commercial real estate growth rates. Given the Bank’s experienced and local lending team, its history of low commercial real estate losses, and knowledge of its customers, management feels comfortable that its growth in commercial real estate over the past couple years has put quality assets on the balance sheet. However, the Company’s strategy has shifted to a more diverse loan portfolio not as heavily reliant on commercial real estate for growth. This is evidenced in the lack of growth in commercial and multi-family real estate loans in the second quarter while commercial and industrial loans increased $2.3 million, or 3.8%.
The national direct financing lease portfolio declined $4.0 million during the second quarter and has declined $8.8 million overall this year to $22.7 million at June 30, 2010 as the Company ceased lease originations in the second quarter of 2009 and is winding down the portfolio and exiting this business line. In the third quarter of 2009, the Company announced that it had ceased its marketing efforts to sell the portfolio and intends to service the portfolio until maturity. The national direct financing lease portfolio currently comprises 4.5% of the Company’s total loans and leases portfolio, down from 5.3% at March 31, 2010 and 6.4% at December 31, 2009.
Residential 1-4 family real estate loans decreased $0.5 million from March 31, 2010 and $0.9 million from December 31, 2009. Recent efforts by the federal government to stimulate housing demand in the face of the economic recession have lowered residential home mortgage rates and resulted in stronger consumer real estate demand. 2009 was the high point of the Bank’s residential mortgage demand, with demand slowing somewhat in 2010 as the low rate environment has been in place for so long that many of the consumers who would be candidates to re-finance have already done so. Although demand has abated in 2010 somewhat, it is still higher than the typical volume previously experienced in the Company’s history. Given the low fixed rates and long terms of the loans being originated, the Company has sold many of its originated residential mortgage loans. This, along with prepayments from existing customers re-financing their homes, has resulted in decreased consumer real estate balances when compared with March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009.
The Bank sells these fixed rate residential mortgages to FNMA, while maintaining the servicing rights for those mortgages. During the three month period ended June 30, 2010, the Bank sold mortgages to FNMA totaling $2.8 million, as compared with $4.6 million sold during the three month period ended June 30, 2009. During the six month period ended June 30, 2010, the Bank sold mortgages to FNMA totaling $4.8 million, as compared with $8.8 million during the six month period ended June 30, 2009. Sales to FNMA decreased due to a decline in originations. At June 30, 2010, the Bank had a loan servicing portfolio principal balance of $40.3 million upon which it earns servicing fees, as compared with $38.5 million at March 31, 2010 and $37.4 million at December 31, 2009. The value of the mortgage servicing rights for that portfolio was $0.4 million at June 30, 2010 and March 31, 2010 and

$0.3 million at December 31, 2009. Residential mortgage loans held-for-sale were $0.3 million at June 30, 2010, compared with $1.1 million at March 31, 2010 and $0.3 million at December 31, 2009.

Leasing Portfolio
Net loan and lease charge-offs were $175 thousand and $189 thousand for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2010 as compared with $7.8 million and $9.5 million in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2009. Nearly all of the net charge-offs for 2009 was in the Company’s leasing portfolio. What follows is an explanation of the sequence of events for ENL over the past 15 months, followed by a table illustrating the history of the leasing portfolio’s accounting over the past 15 months.
The rapid deterioration of the portfolio, the lack of strategic fit in the Company’s community banking business model, and the sensitivity of direct financing leases to the economic environment led management to make the strategic decision in April 2009 to exit the national direct financing lease business and market the portfolio for sale. This decision resulted in the classification of the leasing portfolio as held-for-sale and the portfolio being marked to its market value at June 30, 2009. The mark-to-market adjustment was $7.2 million. At September 30, 2009, management determined to keep the lease portfolio, terminated its plans to actively market the portfolio for sale, and the portfolio was placed back into held-for-investment at the revised carrying amount as of June 30, 2009. The difference between the principal value and the carrying value, initially created by the mark-to-market adjustment at June 30, 2009, reduces over time as individual leases deteriorate, become uncollectible, and are written off. The allowance for lease losses was zero at June 30, 2009 when the portfolio was classified as held-for-sale and reported at its fair market value. With the portfolio classified as held-for-investment at June 30, 2010, the portfolio has been evaluated in accordance with the Company’s normal credit review policies in determining the appropriate allowance for lease losses. During the second quarter of 2010, $0.6 million in leases were deemed uncollectible and the difference between the principal value and carrying value of the leases declined from $3.1 million to $2.5 million. This is a decline in the quarterly write-offs from $1.1 million in the first quarter of 2010 and $1.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2009. Non-performing leases declined from $2.9 million at December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010 to $2.4 million at June 30, 2010. In management’s view, given the improvement in the asset quality statistics of the leasing portfolio, it was not necessary to provide for any probable lease losses in the second quarter of 2010

Non-Performing Loans and Leases
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 $11.1 million, or 2.20% of total loans and leases outstanding, compared with $11.4 million, or 2.28% of total loans and leases outstanding at March 31, 2010 and $12.9 million, or 2.64% at December 31, 2009. In the second quarter, non-accruing commercial and multi-family real estate loans and non-accruing direct financing leases decreased. This decrease was somewhat offset by the increase in non-accruing commercial loans and accruing loans 90 days past due increased. The category of accruing loans that are 90 days past due, while higher at June 30, 2010 than at March 31, 2010, is still significantly lower than at December 31, 2009.
Non-accruing commercial and multi-family real estate loans were $2.1 million as of June 30, 2010, down from $3.0 million at March 31, 2010 and $2.7 million at December 31, 2009. The decrease is primarily attributable to the upgrade of a single home developer loan worth about $1.1 million to accruing status. Non-accruing direct financing leases were $2.4 million at June 30, 2010, down from $2.7 million at March 31, 2010 and from $2.9 million at December 31, 2009. Most of the Company’s direct financing lease write-offs are coming from those in non-accruing status. Thus far in 2010, leasing write-offs have outpaced the rate of formerly performing leases being placed into non-accrual status, resulting in the decrease in non-accruing leases.
Non-accruing commercial loans were $1.9 million at June 30, 2010, compared with $1.4 million at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009. The increase was primarily caused by the downgrading of two commercial loan relationships. Loans 90 days past due and still accruing was $2.0 million at June 30, 2010, an increase from $1.7 million at March 31, 2010, but down from $4.1 million at December 31, 2009. The increase during the second quarter was the result of four commercial mortgage loans. All four loans are more than 90 days past the initial maturity. The Bank intends to either extend the loans under normal underwriting criteria and market terms or receive payment in full. The delay in refinancing or repayment is generally due to administrative, legal, or other processing matters, and not due to the ability to pay or creditworthiness of the borrower. The two matured loans that made up the $1.7 million balance at March 31, 2010 were subsequently extended in the second quarter under normal underwriting criteria and market terms. The additional decrease from the prior year end is attributable to the

For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2010, gross interest income that would have been reported on non-accruing loans and leases had they been current was $192 thousand and $356 thousand, respectively. For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2009, gross interest income that would have been reported on non-accruing loans and leases had they been current was $127 thousand and $217 thousand, respectively. There was $9 thousand and $55 thousand of interest income on non-accruing loans and leases included in net income for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2010. There was $6 thousand and $61 thousand of interest income on non-accruing loans and leases included in net income for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2009.
The Company had $1.9 million in loans and leases that were restructured in a troubled debt restructuring at June 30, 2010, compared with $1.8 million at March 31, 2010 and $2.2 million at December 31, 2009. $0.6 million, $0.9 million, and $0.9 million of the troubled debt restructurings at June 30, 2010, March 31, 2010, and December 31, 2009, respectively, were in non-accrual. All of the restructurings were undertaken in an effort to maximize the Company’s ability to collect on loans and leases where borrowers were experiencing financial issues. The general practice of the Company 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 troubled debt restructuring, the loan or lease will be placed in nonaccrual or charged off.
The allowance for loan and lease losses totaled $8.3 million or 1.65% of total loans and leases outstanding at June

Table of Contents

30, 2010, as compared with $8.2 million or 1.64% at March 31, 2010 and $7.0 million or 1.42% of total loans and leases outstanding as of December 31, 2009.
At June 30, 2010, the Company had $36.2 million in loans remaining from its FDIC-assisted acquisition of Waterford Village Bank (“Waterford”) in July 2009. $3.2 million, or 8.7%, of the loans in the former Waterford portfolio are non-performing. $1.7 million are in non-accruing status and $1.4 million are 90 days past due and still accruing. The indemnification asset, which represents the expected proceeds from FDIC loss share claims on charged off former Waterford loans, was $1.0 million at June 30, 2010, compared with $1.1 million at March 31, 2010 and $1.4 million at December 31, 2009. The asset declines as losses are reimbursed by the FDIC.
The adequacy of the Company’s allowance for loan and lease losses is reviewed quarterly by the Company’s management with consideration given to loan and lease concentrations, charge-off history, delinquent loan and lease percentages, regulatory considerations, and general economic conditions. Management believes the allowance for loan and lease losses is adequate for losses from existing loans and leases.
Investing Activities
Total securities were $97.2 million at June 30, 2010, reflecting a $9.1 million, or 10.3%, increase from $88.1 million at March 31, 2010 and an $18.2 million, or 23.0%, increase from $79.0 million at December 31, 2009. The increase in the first quarter of the year was largely in short-term U.S. government-sponsored agency bonds, which were needed to collateralize the short-term influx of municipal deposits. In the second quarter, the Company raised net proceeds of $13.4 million in common equity through a registered offering and experienced deposit growth higher than loan growth. With cash and interest-bearing deposits at correspondent banks making close to zero in this historically low interest rate environment, management purchased investment securities of various types and maturities to better utilize the excess capital. Compared with December 31, 2009, as of June 30, 2010, the Company had added $4.3 million in U.S. government-sponsored agency bonds, $0.6 million in tax-advantaged municipal bonds, and $14.2 million in U.S. government-sponsored mortgage-backed securities. Securities and interest-bearing deposits at correspondent banks made up 15.1% and 14.8% of the Bank’s total average interest earning assets in the second and first quarters of 2010, respectively.
Due to the mix of the investment security purchases made in the second quarter of 2010, the Company’s concentration in tax-advantaged municipal bonds, decreased from 45.8% of the portfolio at March 31, 2010 and 51.7% at December 31, 2009 to 42.4% at June 30, 2010 and the concentration in government-sponsored mortgage-backed securities increased from 18.8% at December 31, 2009 and 15.7% at March 31, 2010 to 29.9% at June 30, 2010. U.S. government-sponsored agency bonds of various types comprised 24.8% of the portfolio at June 30, 2010 versus 34.3% at March 31, 2010 and 25.0% at December 31, 2009. As a member of both the Federal Reserve System and FHLBNY, the Bank is required to hold stock in those entities. These investments made up 3.0% of the portfolio at June 30, 2010 versus 4.2% at March 31, 2010 and 4.5% at December 31, 2009. The credit quality of the securities portfolio as a whole is believed to be strong as the portfolio is in an overall unrealized net gain position, with no individual securities in a significant unrealized loss position. With interest rates at historical lows, the unrealized gain position of the investment portfolio increased from $1.6 million and $1.7 million at December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010, respectively, to $2.7 million at June 30, 2010.
The Company monitors extension and prepayment risk in the securities portfolio to limit potential exposures. The average expected life of the securities portfolio was 3.6 years as of June 30, 2010 compared with 3.3 years at March 31, 2010 and 3.2 years as of December 31, 2009. Available-for-sale securities with a total fair value of $69.9 million, $79.5 million, and $65.2 million at June 30, 2010, March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively, 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 June 30, 2010 were $535.6 million, reflecting a $24.7 million or 4.8%, increase from March 31, 2010 and a $36.1 million, or 7.2%, increase from December 31, 2009. Demand deposits at June 30, 2010 were $95.9 million, reflecting an $8.1 million or 9.2% increase from March 31, 2010 and an $8.1 million or 9.2% increase from December 31, 2009. Demand deposit balances fluctuate day-to-day based on the high volume of transactions normally associated with the demand product, and therefore average demand deposit growth is a better measure of

sustained growth. Average demand deposits during the three month period ended June 30, 2010 were 6.6% higher than the first quarter of 2010 and 4.9% higher than the prior year’s second quarter. Most of the Company’s growth in demand deposits has come from commercial customers.
During 2009, the primary driver of deposit growth was the Company’s premium money market savings product, which is included in the regular savings category on the financial statements. In 2010, the Company’s deposit growth vehicle has shifted from the premium money market savings product to its complementary Better Checking and Better Savings products, which are included in the NOW and regular savings deposit categories on the financial statements, respectively. The Better Checking product, introduced in the fourth quarter of 2009, 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 Company as evidenced by regular use of their debit card, use of direct deposit, and electronic statements. Overall, NOW deposits increased $5.0 million, or 24.6%, in the second quarter, and $10.1 million, or 64.4% for the first half of the year. Regular savings deposits increased $9.0 million, or 3.9%, in the second quarter after the Better Savings product was introduced during the quarter. Regular savings deposits of $239.3 million at June 30, 2010 are up $9.7 million from the end of last year.
The Company also experienced its usual seasonal decline in its muni-vest savings product in the second quarter as municipal deposits peak in March due to tax collections. These deposits tend to diminish thereafter as municipalities use the funds for operations. Muni-vest deposits were $27.7 million at June 30, 2010, $37.7 million at March 31, 2010, and $23.4 million at December 31, 2009. Time deposits were $147.0 million at June 30, 2010, a 9.3% increase from the March 31, 2010 balance of $134.5 million after declining in the first quarter from $143.0 million at December 31, 2009. The decline in the first quarter was largely due to brokered time deposit roll-off that was not replaced due to the inflow of municipal deposits. The Company was able to attract customers to term deposit products despite the low rate environment by promoting its 5 year certificate of deposit (“CD”).

Short-term borrowings, which typically include the Bank’s overnight line of credit and other advances with the FHLBNY and other short-term notes, decreased from $19.1 million at December 31, 2009 and $22.0 million at March 31, 2010 to $0.1 million at June 30, 2010. Long-term borrowings at June 30, 2010 remained unchanged from the March 31, 2010 balance of $27.0 million, and down slightly from $27.2 million at December 31, 2009. Because the Company’s deposit growth outpaced its loan growth and with the injection of cash from the common stock offering in the quarter, the Bank’s outstanding overnight line of credit with FHLBNY, which was $21.9 million at March 31, 2010 and $19.1 million at December 31, 2009, was reduced to zero at June 30, 2010.

Net Income
Net income for the second quarter of 2010 was $1.6 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, compared with net loss of ($1.9) million, or ($0.67) per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2009. For the year-to-date period, net income in 2010 was $3.1 million, or $0.98 per diluted share, compared with a net loss of ($3.1) million, or ($1.12) per diluted share in 2009. The significant increase in net income was largely due to a lower provision for loan and lease losses in 2010. The provision for loan and lease losses decreased from $5.6 million and $8.9 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2009, respectively, to $0.3 and $1.5 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2010, respectively. Last year, the Company’s leasing portfolio experienced significant deterioration and the Company recorded a leasing provision of $4.0 million and $6.8 million in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2009, compared with $0 and $0.8 million in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2010. Also, for the year-to-date comparative, there was a $2.0 million goodwill impairment charge related to the Company’s leasing

reporting unit in the first quarter of 2009. The return on average equity was 11.79% and 12.01% for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2010, compared with (16.6%) and (13.7%) in the same periods in 2009.
“Net operating income” (as defined in the following Supplemental Non-GAAP Disclosure) is net income adjusted for what management considers “non-operating” items. Net operating income for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2010 was $1.8 million, or $0.51 per diluted share, and $3.3 million, or $1.07 per diluted share, respectively, compared with a net operating loss of ($1.7) million, or ($0.62) per diluted share, and ($1.6) million, or ($0.58) per diluted share in the same periods for 2009.
Supplemental Reporting of Non-GAAP Results of Operations
To provide investors with greater understanding of the Company’s operating results, in addition to the results measured in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), the Company provides supplemental reporting on “net operating income” and “diluted net operating earnings per share” which excludes items that management believes to be non-operating in nature. Specifically, net operating income and diluted net operating earnings per share exclude gains and losses on the sale and call of securities and the non-cash impairment and amortization of acquisition-related goodwill and intangible assets. This non-GAAP information is being disclosed because management believes that providing these non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with information useful in understanding the Company’s financial performance, its performance trends, and financial position. While the Company’s management uses these non-GAAP measures in its analysis of the Company’s performance, this information should not be viewed as a substitute for financial results determined in accordance with GAAP or considered to be more important than financial results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor is it necessarily comparable with non-GAAP measures which may be presented by other companies. The reconciliation of net operating income and diluted net operating earnings per share to GAAP net income (loss) and GAAP diluted earnings (loss) per share is presented in the following table.

Other Results of Operations
Net interest income was $6.1 million during the second quarter of 2010, flat with the first quarter of 2010, but up $0.8 million, or 14.1%, from $5.3 million in the second quarter of 2009. For the year-to-date, net interest income of $12.2 million in 2010 was 15.3% higher than the $10.6 million in net interest income earned in the same period in 2009. Growth of the interest-earning assets and the reduced cost of interest-bearing liabilities continue to be the main factors driving this increase. Also contributing to the year-over-year increase was the acquisition of the loans and deposits of Waterford in July 2009. Core loans, defined as total loans and leases less direct financing leases,

were $480.3 million at June 30, 2010, an increase of 1.6% from $472.9 million at March 31, 2010 and 4.9% from $458.1 million at December 31, 2009. Strong growth in commercial real estate balances drove the increase.
The Company’s net interest margin continued to perform well at 4.21% in the second quarter of 2010, but the margin continues to contract. It was 4.28% in the 2010 first quarter and 4.25% in the 2009 second quarter. For the year-to-date period, net interest margin decreased from 4.28% in 2009 to 4.24% in 2010. While loan rates stabilized this quarter, investment security yields continue to decline as demand for high-quality US government agency bonds has increased dramatically in the uncertain economic environment. Also, long-term bond yields have declined as inflation indicators have been benign. On the funding side, while the Company has been successful in attracting new customers, some of that success has come in the premium rate Better Checking account and higher rate 5 year CDs. While these products have put some pressure on the net interest margin, the Company expects to benefit in the long term from the deep customer relationships and interest rate certainty that these products provide.
The provision for loan and lease losses decreased from $5.6 million and $8.9 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2009 to $0.3 and $1.5 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2010, primarily due to the leasing provision. The Company did not record any provision for the leasing portfolio in the second quarter of 2010 after recording a $0.8 million provision for the leasing portfolio in the first quarter of 2010. Last year, the Company’s leasing portfolio experienced significant deterioration and the Company recorded a leasing provision of $4.0 million and $6.8 million in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2009, compared with $0 and $0.8 million in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2010. The provision for the Company’s core loan portfolio was $1.7 million in the second quarter of 2009 and $2.1 million for the first six months of 2009 compared with the $0.3 million provisioned in the second quarter of 2010 and $0.8 million provisioned for the first six months of 2010.
Non-interest income, which represented 32.8% of total revenue in the second quarter of 2010, compared with 38.7% in prior year second quarter, declined 11.9%, or $0.4 million, to $3.0 million when compared with the second quarter of 2009. For the year-to-date period, non-interest income decreased 8.2% from $7.3 million in 2009 to $6.7 million in 2010. The quarterly decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in other income of $0.3 million and a decrease in deposit service charges of $0.1 million. The decrease in deposit service charges reflects a continuation in the industry-wide trend of declining revenues associated with deposit service charges. The other income decrease is related to several one-time items resulting from the discontinuation of leasing operations. For the year-to-date period, in addition to those items, another reason for the decline in non-interest income was the decrease in bank-owned life insurance income of $0.1 million due to a gain on life insurance proceeds in the first quarter of 2009. The largest portion of the Company’s non-interest income is insurance service and fee revenue from The Evans Agency (“TEA”). Insurance agency revenue was flat year-over-year for the three and six month periods ended June 30th in 2010 and 2009 at $1.6 million and $3.9 million, respectively. The soft insurance market continues to put downward pressure on TEA’s revenue in personal and commercial property and casualty insurance commissions.
Total non-interest expenses were $6.5 million for the second quarter of 2010, an increase of $0.5 million, or 7.5%, from $6.1 million in the second quarter of 2009. The increase is from higher salary and employee benefit and advertising expenses, offset by decreases in technology and communications, FDIC insurance and other expenses. The largest component of the increase was in salaries and employee benefits, which increased 18.8%, or $0.6 million, to $3.7 million for the second quarter of 2010 compared with the prior year second quarter. Salaries and benefits were higher because of annual merit raises, the addition of new account executives at TEA and commercial loan officers at the Bank, and from branch employees retained in the acquisition of Waterford. Another portion of the increase is a result of annual bonus accruals in 2010. Due to the losses recorded in the first two quarters of last year, the Company decided in the second quarter of last year that it would likely not pay out bonuses to employees for 2009 and thus reversed out the bonuses accrued through the first quarter of 2009 and stopped accruing for bonuses for the rest of the year. Advertising expenses increased from $151 thousand in last year’s second quarter to $257 thousand in this year’s second quarter due to heavy promotions designed to drive deposit growth and financial services revenue.
FDIC insurance expenses decreased from $320 thousand in the 2009 second quarter to $217 thousand in the second quarter of 2010 due to the “special” assessment the FDIC charged all banks in last year’s second quarter. The special assessment portion of last year’s expense was $250 thousand. The recurring FDIC insurance premiums increased from $70 thousand in the 2009 second quarter to $217 thousand in the 2010 second quarter. Technology and

communications expenses decreased from $225 thousand in the 2009 second quarter to $163 thousand in the 2010 second quarter after the Company settled a contractual dispute with a vendor more favorably than was initially anticipated. Other expenses decreased due to several one-time items resulting from the discontinuation of leasing operations.
For the year-to-date period, non-interest expenses decreased $0.8 million, or 5.6%, to $13.0 million in 2010 due primarily to the goodwill impairment charge related to the Company’s leasing reporting unit in the first quarter of 2009. Excluding the $2.0 million goodwill impairment charge, non-interest expenses increased $1.2 million, or 10.3%, from 2009 to 2010, primarily due to the reasons discussed in the quarterly comparison above.
As a result of the increase in non-interest expenses and the decrease in non-interest income, the efficiency ratio, excluding goodwill impairment and intangible amortization, increased to 69.72% for the second quarter of 2010, from 67.27% in the second quarter of 2009. The Company’s efficiency ratio for the first quarter of 2010 was 63.56%. The first quarter typically has a lower efficiency ratio than the second quarter due to the seasonality of TEA’s revenue. For the year-to-date, the efficiency ratio was 66.52% in 2010, compared with 63.61% in 2009.
Income tax expense was $0.6 million and $1.3 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2010, respectively. These figures reflect an effective tax rate of 26.6% and 29.0% for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2010, respectively, compared with 38.2% and 36.6% in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2009, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate is lower in the second quarter of 2010 than the first quarter rate of 31.6% because the Company fully reserved for the remaining state income tax deferred tax asset related to Evans National Leasing in the first quarter. The effective tax rates in 2009 were significantly impacted by the losses incurred in the Company’s leasing reporting unit.
CAPITAL
The Company consistently maintains regulatory capital ratios measurably above the federal “well capitalized” standard, including a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 10.18% at June 30, 2010. This is a significant increase from the 7.88% ratio at March 31, 2010 and 7.80% at December 31, 2009 due to the Company’s successful registered common stock offering in May 2010 that netted the Company $13.4 million. Book value per share was $15.44 at June 30, 2010, compared with $16.60 at March 31, 2010, and $16.34 at December 31, 2009. While earnings increased the book value of the Company, the 1.2 million additional shares issued in the May 2010 common stock offering at $12.00 per share diluted the book value per share. Tangible book value per share at June 30, 2010 was $13.05, flat from the end of the trailing first quarter and up 2.6% from December 31, 2009 as earnings growth offset the stock offering’s dilution.
On March 16, 2010, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a semi-annual cash dividend of $0.20 per share on the Company’s outstanding common stock. The dividend was paid on April 27, 2010 to shareholders of record as of April 6, 2010.
LIQUIDITY
The Company 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 $75.6 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 Company’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. Additionally, the Company has access to capital markets as a funding source, as evidenced by its recent registered public offering of common stock, described above under “Capital.”
Cash flows from the Company’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 June 30, 2010,

approximately 7.8% of the Bank’s securities had contractual maturity dates of one year or less and approximately 27.7% 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 closing and investment purchases. At June 30, 2010, in the Company’s internal stress test, the Company had net short-term liquidity of $59.2 million as compared with $43.2 million at December 31, 2009.
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 Bank relies heavily on FHLBNY as a source of funds, particularly with its overnight line of credit. Several members of FHLB have warned that they have either breached risk-based capital requirements or that they are close to breaching those requirements. To conserve capital, some FHLB branches are suspending dividends, cutting dividend payments, and not buying back excess FHLB stock that members hold. FHLBNY has stated that they expect to be able to continue to pay dividends, redeem excess capital stock, and provide competitively priced advances in the future. The most severe problems in FHLB have been at some of the other FHLB branches. Nonetheless, the 12 FHLB branches are jointly liable for the consolidated obligations of the FHLB system. To the extent that one FHLB branch cannot meet its obligations to pay its share of the system’s debt, other FHLB branches can be called upon to make the payment.
Systemic weakness in the FHLB could result in higher costs of FHLB borrowings and increased demand for alternative sources of liquidity that are more expensive, such as brokered time deposits, the discount window at the Federal Reserve, or lines of credit with correspondent banks First Tennessee and M&T Bank.
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 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:
SENSITIVITY OF NET INTEREST INCOME TO CHANGES IN INTEREST RATES

-100 basis points
    284       577  
-200 basis points
    N/A       N/A  
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 June 30, 2010 (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 June 30, 2010 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 June 30, 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
