PART I
General
The First of Long Island Corporation (the “Registrant” or the “Corporation”), a one-bank holding company, was incorporated on February 7, 1984 for the purpose of providing financial services through its wholly-owned subsidiary, The First National Bank of Long Island (the “Bank”).
The Bank was organized in 1927 as a national banking association under the laws of the United States of America and was known as The First National Bank of Glen Head through June 30, 1978. The Bank has an Investment Management Division that provides investment management, pension trust, personal trust, estate, and custody services. The Bank also has a wholly-owned subsidiary, The First of Long Island Agency, Inc. (the “Agency”), that is a licensed insurance agency under the laws of the State of New York. The Bank has one other wholly-owned subsidiary, FNY Service Corp., an investment company. The Bank and FNY Service Corp. jointly own another subsidiary, The First of Long Island REIT, Inc., a real estate investment trust.
All of the financial operations of the Corporation are considered to be aggregated in one reportable operating segment. All revenues are attributed to and all long-lived assets are located in the United States.
The Bank has historically served the financial needs of privately owned businesses, professionals, consumers, public bodies, and other organizations primarily in Nassau and Suffolk Counties, Long Island. However, the Bank has three commercial banking branches in Manhattan and may open additional New York City branches in the future.
The principal business of the Bank has historically consisted of attracting business and consumer checking deposits, money market deposits, time deposits and savings deposits and investing those funds in commercial and residential mortgage loans, commercial loans, home equity loans, and investment securities. The Bank’s loan portfolio is primarily comprised of loans to borrowers on Long Island and in New York City, and its real estate loans are principally secured by properties located in those geographic areas.
The Bank’s investment securities portfolio is primarily comprised of pass-through mortgage-backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations and state and municipal securities.
The Bank offers a variety of deposit products having a wide range of interest rates and terms. The principal products include checking accounts, money market accounts, savings accounts, escrow service and IOLA (interest on lawyer) accounts, time deposit accounts and IRA accounts.
In addition to its loan and deposit products, the Bank offers other services to its customers including the following:

The Bank has a main office located in Glen Head, New York, nineteen other full service offices (Babylon, Bayville, Bellmore, Cold Spring Harbor, East Meadow, Garden City, Greenvale, Huntington, Locust Valley, Merrick, Northport, Northport Village, Old Brookville, Point Lookout, Rockville Centre, Roslyn Heights, Sea Cliff, Valley Stream, Woodbury), twelve commercial banking offices (Bohemia, Deer Park, two in Farmingdale, Great Neck, Hauppauge, Hicksville, three in Manhattan, New Hyde Park, Port Jefferson Station), and two Select Service Banking Centers (Lake Success and Smithtown) which serve the needs of both businesses and consumers. The Bank’s newest office is the full service office in Point Lookout, Long Island, which opened in February 2011. The Bank continues to evaluate potential new branch sites both on Long Island and in New York City.
The Bank’s revenues are derived principally from interest on loans and investment securities, service charges and fees on deposit accounts, and income from trust and investment management services.
The Bank did not commence, abandon, or significantly change any of its lines of business during 2010.
The Bank encounters substantial competition in its banking business from numerous other financial services organizations which have offices located in the communities served by the Bank. Principal competitors are branches of larger banks, such as Citibank, JPMorgan Chase, Capital One, and TD Bank, various community banks on Long Island and in Manhattan, mortgage brokers, brokerage firms and credit unions.
Lending Activities
General. The Bank’s lending is subject to written underwriting standards and loan origination procedures, as approved by the Loan Committee of the Board of Directors and contained in the Bank’s loan policies. The loan policies allow for exceptions and set forth specific exception approval requirements. Decisions on loan applications are based on, among other things, the borrower’s credit history, the financial strength of the borrower, estimates of the borrower’s ability to repay the loan, and the value of the collateral, if any. All real estate appraisals must meet the requirements of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989 and be reviewed by the Bank’s appraisal review staff who are independent of the loan underwriting process.
The Bank conducts its lending activities out of its main office in Glen Head, NY and its Suffolk County regional office in Hauppauge, NY. The Bank’s loan portfolio is primarily comprised of loans to small and medium-sized privately owned businesses, professionals, and consumers on Long Island and in New York City. The Bank offers a full range of lending services including commercial and residential mortgage loans, home equity loans and lines, commercial loans, construction loans, consumer loans, and commercial and standby letters of credit. Commercial loans include, among other things, short-term business loans; term and installment loans; revolving credit term loans; and loans secured by marketable securities, the cash surrender value of life insurance policies, deposit accounts, or general business assets. Consumer loans include, among other things, auto loans, home improvement loans, personal loans, overdraft checking lines, and VISA® credit cards.
The Bank makes both fixed and variable rate loans. Variable rate loans are primarily tied to and reprice with changes in the prime interest rate of the Bank, the prime interest rate as published in The Wall Street Journal, U.S. Treasury rates, or the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York regular fixed advance rates. Commercial and residential mortgage loans are made with terms not in excess of thirty years. Fixed rate residential mortgage loans with terms greater than fifteen years are generally not maintained in the Bank’s portfolio. Commercial mortgage loans generally reprice within five years, and home equity loans and home equity lines generally mature within ten years. The Bank’s usual practice is to lend no more than 70% of appraised value on residential mortgage loans, 65% on home equity lines and fixed rate home equity loans, and 70% to 75% on commercial mortgage loans. The lending limitations with regard to appraised value are more stringent for loans on co-ops and condominiums .
The risks inherent in the Bank's loan portfolio primarily stem from the following factors relating to borrower size, geographic concentration, industry concentration, strength of the local economy including the real estate market, and environmental contamination. Loans to small and medium-sized businesses sometimes involve a higher degree of risk than those to larger companies because such businesses may have shorter operating histories, higher debt-to-equity ratios and may lack sophistication in internal record keeping and financial and operational controls. Most of the Bank’s loans are made to businesses and consumers on Long Island and in New York City, and a large percentage of these loans are mortgage loans secured by properties located in those areas. At December 31, 2010, multifamily loans amounted to approximately $208 million and comprised approximately 50% of the Bank’s total commercial mortgage portfolio and 24% of the Bank’s total loans secured by real estate. The ability of many of the Bank’s borrowers to repay their loans is dependent on the strength of the local economy. In addition, if it becomes necessary to foreclose a loan secured by real estate, the ability of the Bank to fully realize its investment is dependent on, among other things, the strength of the local real estate market, the condition of the property and the absence of environmental contamination. The Bank does not have any foreign loans.
Loans in excess of $400,000 up to and including $6,000,000 require the approval of the Management Loan Committee. Loans in excess of $6,000,000 up to and including $10,000,000 also require the approval of two non-management members of the Board Loan Committee. Loans in excess of $10,000,000 require the recommendation of the Management Loan Committee and the approval of a majority of the Board of Directors.
The composition of the Bank’s loan portfolio is set forth below.

Commercial and Industrial Loans. The Bank makes commercial loans on a demand basis, short-term basis, or installment basis. Short-term business loans are generally due and payable within one year and should be self liquidating during the normal course of the borrower’s business cycle. Term and installment loans are usually due and payable within five years. Generally, it is the policy of the Bank to request personal guarantees of principal owners on loans made to privately-owned businesses. Maturity and rate information for the Bank’s commercial and industrial loans outstanding at December 31, 2010 is set forth below.

Real Estate Mortgage and Home Equity Loans and Lines. The Bank makes residential and commercial mortgage loans and home equity loans and establishes home equity lines of credit. Applicants for residential mortgage loans and home equity loans and lines will be considered for approval provided they have satisfactory credit history and collateral and the Bank believes that there is sufficient monthly income to service both the loan or line applied for and existing debt. Applicants for commercial mortgage loans will be considered for approval provided they, as well as any guarantors, generally have satisfactory credit history and can demonstrate, through financial statements and otherwise, the ability to repay.
In processing requests for commercial mortgage loans, the Bank generally requires an environmental assessment to identify the possibility of environmental contamination. The extent of the assessment procedures varies from property to property and is based on factors such as whether or not the subject property is an industrial building or has a suspected environmental risk based on current or past use.
Construction Loans. From time to time, the Bank makes loans to finance the construction of both residential and commercial properties. The maturity of such loans is generally one year or less and advances are made as the construction progresses. The advances can require the submission of bills by the contractor, verification by a Bank-approved inspector that the work has been performed, and title insurance updates to ensure that no intervening liens have been placed. There were no construction loans outstanding at December 31, 2010.
Consumer Loans and Lines. The Bank makes auto loans, home improvement loans, and other consumer loans, establishes revolving overdraft lines of credit, and issues VISA® credit cards. Consumer loans are generally made on an installment basis over terms not in excess of five years. In reviewing loans and lines for approval, the Bank considers, among other things, ability to repay, stability of employment and residence, and past credit history.
Past Due, Nonaccrual, and Restructured Loans. Selected information about the Bank’s past due, nonaccrual, and restructured loans can be found in the sections of the Corporation’s 2010 Annual Report to Shareholders entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Note C - Loans” to the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements which have been incorporated by reference into Items 7 and 8, respectively, of this Form 10-K.
The past due status of a loan is based on the contractual terms in the loan agreement. Unless a loan is well secured and in the process of collection, the accrual of interest income is discontinued when a loan becomes 90 days past due as to principal or interest payments. The accrual of interest income on a loan is also discontinued when it is determined that the borrower will not be able to make principal and interest payments according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. When the accrual of interest income is discontinued on a loan, any accrued but unpaid interest is reversed against current period income. As of December 31, 2010, the Bank did not have any material potential problem loans except for the loans disclosed in “Note C - Loans” to the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements which have been incorporated by reference into Item 8 of this Form 10-K.
Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses is established through provisions for loan losses charged against income. When available information confirms that specific loans, or portions thereof, are uncollectible, these amounts are promptly charged off against the allowance for loan losses, and subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.
The allowance for loan losses is an amount that management currently believes will be adequate to absorb probable incurred losses in the Bank’s loan portfolio. The process for estimating credit losses and determining the allowance for loan losses as of any balance sheet date is subjective in nature and requires material estimates. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
In estimating losses the Bank reviews loans deemed to be impaired and measures impairment losses based on either the fair value of collateral or the discounted value of expected future cash flows. A loan is considered to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Bank will be unable to collect the scheduled principal and interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record and financial condition, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed.
Estimated losses for loans that are not individually deemed to be impaired are determined on a pooled basis using the Bank’s historical loss experience adjusted to reflect current conditions. In adjusting historical loss experience, management considers a variety of factors including loan risk ratings, national and local economic conditions and trends, environmental risks, trends in volume and terms of loans, concentrations of credit, changes in lending policies and procedures, changes in the quality of the Bank’s loan review function, and experience, ability, and depth of the Bank’s lending staff. The allowance for loan losses is comprised of impairment losses on the loans specifically reviewed plus estimated losses on the pools of loans that are not specifically reviewed.
Changes in the Bank’s allowance for loan losses for each of the five years in the period ended December 31, 2010 and the allocation of the Bank’s allowance for loan losses by loan type at the end of each of these years can be found in the section of the Corporation’s 2010 Annual Report to Shareholders entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” which has been incorporated by reference into Item 7 of this Form 10-K. Other detailed information on the Bank’s allowance for loan losses, impaired loans and the aging of loans can be found in “Note C – Loans” to the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements, which have been incorporated by reference into Item 8 of this Form 10-K.
The amount of future chargeoffs and provisions for loan losses will be affected by, among other things, economic conditions on Long Island and in New York City. Such conditions could affect the financial strength of the Bank’s borrowers and will affect the value of real estate collateral securing the Bank’s mortgage loans. Loans secured by real estate represent approximately 95% of the Bank’s total loans outstanding at December 31, 2010. Most of these loans were made to borrowers domiciled on Long Island and in New York City. In the last few years general economic conditions have been unfavorable as characterized by high levels of unemployment, declines in commercial and residential real estate values, and increases in commercial real estate vacancies. These conditions have caused some of the Bank’s borrowers to be unable to make the required contractual payments on their loans and could cause the Bank to be unable to realize the full carrying value of such loans through foreclosure or other collection efforts.
Investment Activities
General. The investment policy of the Bank, as approved by the Board Asset/Liability Committee (“Committee”) and supervised by both the Committee and the Management Investment Committee, is intended to promote investment practices which are both safe and sound and in full compliance with applicable regulations. Investment authority will be granted and amended as is necessary by the Committee.
The Bank's investment decisions seek to maximize income while keeping both credit and interest rate risk at acceptable levels, provide for the Bank's liquidity needs, and provide securities that can be pledged, as needed, to secure deposits and/or borrowings.
The Bank’s investment policy generally limits individual maturities to twenty years and average lives, in the case of collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”) and other mortgage-backed securities, to 10 years. At the time of purchase, bonds of states and political subdivisions must generally be rated A or better, notes of states and political subdivisions must generally be rated MIG-2 (or equivalent) or better, and commercial paper must be rated A-1 or P-1. In addition, management periodically reviews issuer credit ratings for all securities in the Bank’s portfolio other than those issued by the U.S. government. Any significant deterioration in the creditworthiness of an issuer will be analyzed and action will be taken if deemed appropriate. The Bank has not engaged in the purchase and sale of securities for the primary purpose of producing trading profits and its current investment policy does not allow such activity.
Portfolio Composition. The composition of the Bank’s investment portfolio can be found in “Note B - Investment Securities” to the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements which have been incorporated by reference into Item 8 of this Form 10-K.
Maturity Information. The maturities and weighted average yields of the Bank’s investment securities at December 31, 2010 can be found in “Note B - Investment Securities” to the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements which have been incorporated by reference into Item 8 of this Form 10-K.
During 2010, the Bank received cash dividends totaling $247,000 on its Federal Reserve Bank and Federal Home Loan Bank of New York stock, representing an average yield of 5.01%.
Sources of Funds
General. The Bank’s primary sources of liquidity are deposit growth, maturities and monthly payments on its investment securities and loan portfolios, operations, borrowings from brokerage firms and commercial banks under repurchase agreements, and borrowings from the Federal Reserve Bank and Federal Home Loan Bank of New York. The Bank can also borrow overnight federal funds from other commercial banks. A further discussion of borrowing sources and details of outstanding borrowings can be found in the sections of the Corporation’s 2010 Annual Report to Shareholders entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Note F – Borrowed Funds” to the Corporation’s Consolidated Financial Statements which have been incorporated by reference into Items 7 and 8, respectively, of this Form 10-K.
The Bank offers checking and interest-bearing deposit products. In addition to business checking, the Bank has a variety of personal checking products which differ in minimum balance requirements, monthly maintenance fees, and per check charges, if any. The interest-bearing deposit products, which have a wide range of interest rates and terms, consist of checking accounts, including NOW accounts and IOLA, escrow service accounts, rent security accounts, a variety of personal and nonpersonal money market accounts, a variety of personal and nonpersonal savings products, time deposits, holiday club accounts, and a variety of individual retirement accounts.
The Bank relies primarily on customer service, calling programs, lending relationships, referral sources, competitive pricing, and advertising to attract and retain deposits. Currently, the Bank solicits deposits only from its local market area and does not have any deposits which qualify as brokered deposits under applicable Federal regulations. The flow of deposits is influenced by general economic conditions, changes in interest rates and competition.
Classification of Average Deposits. The Bank’s average deposit balances by major classification are set forth below.

The Corporation is exposed to a variety of risks, some of which are inherent in the banking business. The more significant of these are addressed by the Corporation’s written policies and procedures. While management is responsible for identifying, assessing and managing risk, the Board of Directors is responsible for risk oversight. The Board fulfills its risk oversight responsibilities primarily through its committees. The risks faced by the Corporation include, among others, credit risk, allowance for loan loss risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk, market risk for its common stock, economic conditions risk, operational risk, technology risk and regulatory and legislative risk.
Credit Risk. For both investment securities and loans, there is always the risk that the Bank will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms. Credit risk in the Bank’s securities portfolio has been addressed by adopting a board committee approved investment policy that, among other things, limits terms and types of holdings, and specifies minimum required credit ratings. Allowable investments include direct obligations of the U.S. government and its agencies, highly rated obligations of states and political subdivisions, and highly rated corporate obligations. At the time of purchase, bonds of states and political subdivisions must generally be rated A or better, notes of states and political subdivisions must generally be rated MIG-2 (or equivalent) or better, commercial paper must be rated A-1 or P-1, and corporate bonds must be rated A or better. In addition, management periodically reviews issuer credit ratings for all securities in the Bank’s portfolio other than those issued by the U.S. government or its agencies. Any significant deterioration in the creditworthiness of an issuer will be analyzed and action will be taken if deemed appropriate.
Credit risk in the Bank’s loan portfolio has been addressed by adopting board committee approved commercial, consumer, and mortgage loan policies and maintaining loan review and appraisal review functions. The loan policies contain what the Corporation believes to be appropriate underwriting guidelines which include, among other things, specific loan approval requirements, maximum loan terms, loan to appraised value and debt service coverage limits for mortgage loans, FICO minimums and environmental study requirements.
The credit risk within the Bank’s loan portfolio primarily stems from factors such as borrower size, geographic concentration, industry concentration, real estate values and environmental contamination. The Bank’s commercial loans, including those secured by mortgages, are primarily made to small and medium-sized businesses. Such loans sometimes involve a higher degree of risk than those to larger companies because such businesses may have shorter operating histories, higher debt-to-equity ratios and may lack sophistication in internal record keeping and financial and operational controls. In addition, most of the Bank’s loans are made to businesses and consumers on Long Island and in New York City, and a large percentage of these loans are mortgage loans secured by properties located in those areas. At December 31, 2010, multifamily loans amounted to approximately $208 million and comprised approximately 50% of the Bank’s total commercial mortgage portfolio and 24% of the Bank’s total loans secured by real estate. The primary source of repayment for multifamily loans is cash flows from the underlying properties. Such cash flows are dependent on the strength of the local economy. In the last few years general economic conditions have been unfavorable as characterized by high levels of unemployment, declines in commercial and residential real estate values, and increases in commercial real estate vacancies. These conditions have caused some of the Bank’s borrowers to be unable to make the required contractual payments on their loans and could cause the Bank to be unable to realize the full carrying value of such loans through foreclosure or other collection efforts. Environmental impairment of properties securing mortgage loans is also a risk. However, at the present time, the Corporation is not aware of any existing loans in the portfolio where there is environmental pollution originating on or near the mortgaged properties that would materially affect the value of the portfolio.
Allowance for Loan Loss Risk. The Bank maintains an allowance for loan losses in an amount believed to be adequate to absorb probable incurred losses in its loan portfolio. In arriving at the allowance for loan losses, an impairment analysis is performed on each loan where it is probable that the borrower will not make all required principal and interest payments according to contractual terms. In addition, losses for all other loans in the Bank’s portfolio are determined on a pooled basis taking into account, among other things, historical loss experience, loan risk ratings, national and local economic conditions and trends, environmental risks, trends in volume and terms of loans, concentrations of credit, changes in lending policies and procedures, changes in the quality of the Bank’s loan review function, and experience, ability, and depth of the Bank’s lending staff. Because estimating the allowance for loan losses is highly subjective in nature and involves a variety of estimates and assumptions that are inherently uncertain, there is the risk that management’s estimate may not accurately capture all probable incurred losses in the loan portfolio. The Bank’s allowance at any point in time may need to be adjusted upward based on, among other things, additional information that comes to light after the estimate is made, changes in circumstances, or a recommendation by bank regulators based on their review of the Bank’s portfolio. Such an adjustment could result in the need for a significant increase in the Bank’s provision for loan losses and have a material adverse impact on the Bank’s financial condition and results of operations.
Interest Rate Risk. The Bank’s results of operations are subject to risk resulting from interest rate fluctuations in general and having assets and liabilities that have different maturity, repricing, and prepayment/withdrawal characteristics. The Bank defines interest rate risk as the risk that the Bank's earnings and/or net portfolio value (present value of expected future cash flows from assets less the present value of expected future cash flows from liabilities) will change when interest rates change. The Bank has addressed interest rate risk by adopting a Board committee approved interest rate risk policy which sets forth quantitative risk limits and calls for monitoring and controlling interest rate risk through a variety of techniques including the use of interest rate sensitivity models and traditional repricing gap analysis. In addition, management utilizes a consultant with expertise in bank asset/liability management.
Because the Bank’s loans and investment securities generally reprice slower than its interest-bearing liabilities, an immediate increase in interest rates uniformly across the yield curve should initially have a negative effect on net interest income. However, if the Bank does not increase the rates paid on its deposit accounts as quickly or in the same amount as increases in market interest rates and/or owns interest rate caps that are in-the-money at the time of the interest rate increase or become in-the-money as a result of the increase, the magnitude of the negative impact will decline and the impact could even be positive. Over a longer period of time, and assuming that interest rates remain stable after the initial rate increase and the Bank purchases securities and originates loans at yields higher than those maturing and reprices loans at higher yields, the impact of an increase in interest rates should be positive. This occurs primarily because with the passage of time more loans and investment securities will reprice at the higher rates and there will be no offsetting increase in interest expense for those loans and investment securities funded by noninterest-bearing checking deposits and capital.
Conversely, a decrease in interest rates uniformly across the yield curve should initially have a positive impact on the Bank’s net interest income. Furthermore, if the Bank owns interest rate floors that are in-the-money at the time of the interest rate decrease or become in-the-money as a result of the decrease, the magnitude of the positive impact should increase. However, if the Bank does not or cannot decrease the rates paid on its deposit accounts as quickly or in the same amount as decreases in market interest rates, regardless of whether or not it owns interest rate floors, the magnitude of the positive impact will decline and could even be negative.
If interest rates decline, or have declined, and are sustained at the lower levels and, as a result, the Bank purchases securities at lower yields and loans are originated or repriced at lower yields, the impact on net interest income should be negative because a significant portion of the Bank’s average interest-earning assets are funded by noninterest-bearing checking deposits and capital.
Liquidity Risk. Liquidity risk is the risk that the Bank will not have sufficient funds to accommodate loan growth, meet deposit outflows or make contractual payments on borrowing arrangements. The Bank has addressed liquidity risk by adopting a Board committee approved liquidity policy and liquidity contingency plan that set forth quantitative risk limits and a protocol for responding to liquidity stress conditions should they arise. The Bank encounters significant competition in its market area from branches of larger banks, various community banks, credit unions and other financial services organizations. This, in addition to renewed consumer confidence in the equity markets, could cause deposit outflows, and such outflows could be significant. However, the Bank believes that its present sources of liquidity, the details of which follow, are more than sufficient to meet loan demand, accommodate deposit outflows, and provide sufficient contingency liquidity.
The Bank’s primary internal sources of liquidity are its overnight investments, investment securities designated as available-for-sale, and maturities and monthly payments on its investment securities and loan portfolios. At December 31, 2010, the Bank had approximately $414 million of unencumbered available-for-sale securities.
The Bank is a member of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (“FRB”) and the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York (“FHLB”), has repurchase agreements in place with a number of brokerage firms and commercial banks and has federal funds lines with several commercial banks. In addition to customer deposits, the Bank’s primary external sources of liquidity are secured borrowings from the FRB, FHLB and repurchase agreement counterparties. In addition, the Bank can purchase overnight federal funds under its existing lines. However, the Bank’s FRB membership, FHLB membership, repurchase agreements and federal funds lines do not represent legal commitments to extend credit to the Bank. The amount that the Bank can potentially borrow is currently dependent on, among other things, the amount of unencumbered eligible securities and loans that the Bank can use as collateral and the collateral margins required by the lenders. At December 31, 2010, based on collateral in place at the FRB and FHLB, the Bank had a total borrowing capacity of approximately $700 million.
Market Risk for the Corporation’s Common Stock. The Corporation’s common stock is included in the Russell 3000 and Russell 2000 Indexes, which were reconstituted in June 2010. Upon reconstitution, the average market capitalization of companies in the Russell 2000 Index was $987 million, the median market capitalization was $448 million, the capitalization of the largest company in the index was $2.3 billion, and the capitalization of the smallest company in the index was $112 million. The Corporation’s market capitalization on December 31, 2010 was approximately $250 million.
The Corporation believes that inclusion in the Russell indexes has positively impacted the price, trading volume and liquidity of its common stock. Conversely, if the Corporation’s market capitalization falls below the minimum necessary to be included in the indexes at any future reconstitution date, the opposite could occur.
Economic Conditions Risk. National and local economic conditions remain unfavorable. This poses significant risks to both the Corporation’s business and the banking industry as a whole. Specific risks include: reduced loan demand from quality borrowers; increased loan loss provisions resulting from a deterioration in loan quality caused by, among other things, depressed real estate values and high levels of unemployment; interest rate volatility; price competition for deposits due to liquidity concerns or otherwise; and volatile equity markets.
Operational Risk. The Corporation relies on its system of internal controls to ensure that transactions are captured, recorded, processed and reported properly; confidential customer information is safeguarded; and fraud by employees and persons outside the Corporation is detected and prevented. The Corporation’s internal controls may prove to be ineffective or employees may fail to comply with or override the controls, either of which could result in significant financial loss to the Corporation, adverse action by bank regulatory authorities or the SEC, and damage to the Corporation’s reputation.
Technology Risk. Communications and information systems are essential to the conduct of the Bank’s business, as such systems are used to manage customer relationships, deposits, loans, general ledger accounts, financial reporting and regulatory compliance. While the Bank has established policies and procedures to prevent or limit the impact of systems failures, interruptions, and security breaches, there can be no assurance that such events will not occur or that they will be adequately addressed if they do. In addition, any compromise of the Bank’s information security systems could deter customers from using the Bank’s web site and its internet banking service, both of which involve the transmission of confidential information. Although the Bank relies on commonly used security and processing systems to provide the security and authentication necessary to ensure the secure transmission and processing of data, these precautions may not protect our systems from all compromises or breaches of security.
In addition, the Bank outsources certain of its data processing to third-party providers. If third-party providers encounter difficulties, or if the Bank has difficulty communicating with them, the Bank’s ability to adequately process and account for customer transactions could be affected, and the Bank’s business operations could be adversely impacted. Threats to information security also exist in the processing of customer information through various other vendors and their personnel.
The occurrence of any systems failure, interruption, or breach of security could damage the Bank’s reputation and result in a loss of customers and business, could subject the Bank to additional regulatory scrutiny, or could expose the Bank to civil litigation and possible financial liability. Any of these occurrences could have a material adverse effect on the Corporation’s financial condition and results of operations.
The delivery of financial products and services has become increasingly technology-driven. The Bank’s ability to meet the needs of its customers competitively, and in a cost-efficient manner, is dependent on its ability to keep pace with technological advances and to invest in new technology as it becomes available. The ability to keep pace with technological change is important, and failure to do so could have a material adverse impact on the Corporation’s business and therefore its financial condition and results of operations.
The Bank has addressed technology risks through the use of logon and user access controls, transaction limits, firewalls, antivirus software, intrusion protection monitoring and third party vulnerability scans. Systems failure or interruption has been addressed by adopting a disaster recovery and contingency plan. In addition, for all third-party providers of data processing services, the Bank obtains and reviews audit reports prepared by independent registered public accounting firms regarding their financial condition and the effectiveness of their internal controls.
Regulatory and Legislative Risk. The Corporation and the Bank are subject to regulation, supervision and examination by, among others, the FRB, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, which also insures the Bank’s deposits. Regulation and supervision govern the activities in which a bank and its holding company may engage and are intended for, among other things, the protection of depositors. Regulatory requirements affect virtually all aspects of the Corporation’s and the Bank’s business including investment practices, lending practices, deposit offerings and terms and capital levels. The regulators have extensive discretion in connection with their supervisory and enforcement activities, including imposing restrictions on bank operations, imposing deposit insurance premiums and other assessments, setting required levels for the allowance for loan losses and capital, and imposing restrictions on the ability to pay cash dividends. Changes in laws, regulations and supervisory policies, or the Corporation’s and the Bank’s compliance with these laws and regulations as judged by the regulators, could have a significant negative impact on the Corporation’s operations and financial results. The Corporation controls the risk of noncompliance with laws and regulations by having Board approved compliance policies, hiring and retaining employees with the experience and skills necessary to properly address compliance on an ongoing basis, and consulting, when necessary with legal counsel on compliance matters.
Additional information regarding regulatory and legislative risk can be found in the Corporation’s 2010 Annual Report to Shareholders under the caption “Legislation and Regulatory Matters” contained in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” which has been incorporated by reference into Item 7 of this Form 10-K.
