Item 2.06 | Material Impairments |
On August 30, 2012, PeoplesBank, A Codorus Valley Company, the wholly-owned subsidiary of Codorus Valley Bancorp, Inc. (Corporation), determined to record a $1,027,436 provision for losses on foreclosed real estate for impairment to the value of a partially developed residential subdivision based upon a current independent appraisal. The provision and valuation allowance were deemed necessary to reflect widespread deterioration in residential real estate lot values resulting in very weak demand and pricing. Prior to recording the provision referred to in this filing, the value of the residential subdivision was based, in part, on the contractual obligation of a buyer to acquire lots at prices fixed in the contract. The buyer did not perform as provided in the contract. As a result of this failure in performance, PeoplesBank secured the new appraisal. | |
A $600,000 valuation allowance was previously established for this property as reported in the Corporation’s Form 10-Q for period ended June 30, 2012. The $1,027,436 addition to the valuation allowance results in a total allowance of $1,627,436 for this property as of the date of this report. | |
In spite of the foregoing, the Corporation expects to be profitable for the third quarter of 2012 and anticipates a significant reduction in its nonperforming assets ratio compared to the 3.28 percent ratio reported in the Corporation’s Form 10-Q for period ended June 30, 2012. |
