F & M BANK CORP.
Notes to (unaudited) Consolidated Financial Statements
 
Note 1. Summary of significant accounting policies

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of F & M Bank Corp. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”).  Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The consolidated financial statements conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and to general industry practices.  In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position as of September 30, 2015 and the results of operations for the quarters and nine month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.  The notes included herein should be read in conjunction with the notes to financial statements included in the 2014 annual report to shareholders of F & M Bank Corp.

The Company does not expect the anticipated adoption of any newly issued accounting standards to have a material impact on future operations or financial position.

Comprehensive Income

Accounting principles generally require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income.  Certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities and gains or losses on certain derivative contracts, are reported as a separate component of the equity section of the balance sheet. Such items, along with operating net income, are components of comprehensive income.

Subsequent Events

In preparing these financial statements, the Company has evaluated events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through the date the financial statements were issued.

Loans Held for Investment

Loans are carried on the balance sheet net of any unearned interest and the allowance for loan losses.  Interest income on loans is determined using the effective interest method on the daily amount of principal outstanding except where serious doubt exists as to collectability of the loan, in which case the accrual of income is discontinued.

Loans Held for Sale

                These loans consist of fixed rate loans made through its subsidiary, VBS Mortgage and loans purchased from NorthPointe Bank, Grand Rapids, MI.
 
Allowance for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses charged to operations is an amount sufficient to bring the allowance for loan losses to an estimated balance that management considers adequate to absorb potential losses in the portfolio.  Loans are charged against the allowance when management believes the collectability of the principal is unlikely.  Recoveries of amounts previously charged-off are credited to the allowance. Management’s determination of the adequacy of the allowance is based on an evaluation of the composition of the loan portfolio, the value and adequacy of collateral, current economic conditions, historical loan loss experience, and other risk factors.  Management believes that the allowance for loan losses is adequate.  While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, future additions to the allowance may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions, particularly those affecting real estate values.  In addition, regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company’s allowance for loan losses.  Such agencies may require the Company to recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination.

Note 1. Summary of significant accounting policies, continued

Allowance for Loan Losses, continued

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or 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 the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed.  Impairment is measured on a loan by loan basis for commercial and construction loans by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s obtainable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.

Nonaccrual Loans

Loans are placed on nonaccrual status when they become ninety days or more past due, unless there is an expectation that the loan will either be brought current or paid in full in a reasonable period of time.

Earnings per Share

Accounting guidance specifies the computation, presentation and disclosure requirements for earnings per common share (“EPS”) for entities with publicly held common stock or potential common stock such as options, warrants, convertible securities or contingent stock agreements. Basic common EPS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.  Diluted common EPS is similar to the computation of basic EPS except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the dilutive common shares had been issued.  The dilutive effect of conversion of preferred stock is reflected in the diluted earnings per share calculation.

Net income available to common stockholders represents consolidated net income adjusted for preferred dividends declared.

The following table provides a reconciliation of net income to net income available to common stockholders for the periods presented:

Description of loan grades:

Grade 1 – Minimal Risk:   Excellent credit, superior asset quality, excellent debt capacity and coverage, and recognized management capabilities.

Grade 2 – Modest Risk:  Borrower consistently generates sufficient cash flow to fund debt service, excellent credit, above average asset quality and liquidity.

Grade 3 – Average Risk:  Borrower generates sufficient cash flow to fund debt service.  Employment (or business) is stable with good future trends.  Credit is very good.

Grade 4 – Acceptable Risk:  Borrower’s cash flow is adequate to cover debt service; however, unusual expenses or capital expenses must by covered through additional long term debt.  Employment (or business) stability is reasonable, but future trends may exhibit slight weakness. Credit history is good. No unpaid judgments or collection items appearing on credit report.

F & M BANK CORP.
Notes to (unaudited) Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 4. Allowance for Loan Losses, continued

Grade 5 – Marginally acceptable:  Credit to borrowers who may exhibit declining earnings, may have leverage that is materially above industry averages, liquidity may be marginally acceptable.  Employment or business stability may be weak or deteriorating.  May be currently performing as agreed, but would be adversely affected by developing factors such as layoffs, illness, reduced hours or declining business prospects.  Credit history shows weaknesses, past dues, paid or disputed collections and judgments, but does not include borrowers that are currently past due on obligations or with unpaid, undisputed judgments.

Grade 6 – Watch:  Loans are currently protected, but are weak due to negative balance sheet or income statement trends.  There may be a lack of effective control over collateral or the existence of documentation deficiencies.  These loans have potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention.  Other reasons supporting this classification include adverse economic or market conditions, pending litigation or any other material weakness.  Existing loans that become 60 or more days past due are placed in this category pending a return to current status.

Grade 7 – Substandard: Loans having well-defined weaknesses where a payment default and or loss is possible, but not yet probable.  Cash flow is inadequate to service the debt under the current payment, or terms, with prospects that the condition is permanent.  Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the borrower and there is the likelihood that collateral will have to be liquidated and/or guarantor(s) called upon to repay the debt.  Generally, the loan is considered collectible as to both principal and interest, primarily because of collateral coverage, however, if the deficiencies are not corrected quickly; there is a probability of loss.

Grade 8 – Doubtful:  The loan has all the characteristics of a substandard credit, but available information indicates it is unlikely the loan will be repaid in its entirety.  Cash flow is insufficient to service the debt.  It may be difficult to project the exact amount of loss, but the probability of some loss is great.  Loans are to be placed on non-accrual status when any portion is classified doubtful.

Note 6. Fair Value
 
Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 820, defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

Level 3 – Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement
 
The following sections provide a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy:

Securities: Where quoted prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 securities would include highly liquid government bonds, mortgage products and exchange traded equities. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics, or discounted cash flow. Level 2 securities would include U.S. Treasury, U.S. agency securities, mortgage-backed agency securities, obligations of states and political subdivisions and certain corporate, asset backed and other securities. In certain cases where there is limited activity or less transparency around inputs to the valuation, securities are classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.

Note 6. Fair Value, continued

Impaired Loans: ASC 820 applies to loans measured for impairment using the practical expedients permitted by ASC 310 including impaired loans measured at an observable market price (if available), or at the fair value of the loan’s collateral (if the loan is collateral dependent). Fair value of the loan’s collateral, when the loan is dependent on collateral, is determined by appraisals or independent valuation which is then adjusted for the cost related to liquidation of the collateral.

Other Real Estate Owned: Certain assets such as other real estate owned (OREO) are measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. We believe that the fair value component in its valuation follows the provisions of ASC 820.

Derivative Financial Instruments: The equity derivative contracts are purchased as part of our Indexed Certificate of Deposit (ICD) program and are an offset of an asset and liability.  ICD values are measured on the S&P 500 Index.

For level 3 assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis or non-recurring basis as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements were as follows:

Note 7. Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments

ASC 825 “Financial Instruments” defines the fair value of a financial instrument as the amount at which a financial instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced liquidation or sale.  As the majority of the Bank’s financial instruments lack an available trading market, significant estimates, assumptions and present value calculations are required to determine estimated fair value.  The following presents the carrying amount, fair value and placement in the fair value hierarchy of the Company’s financial instruments as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.  This table excludes financial instruments for which the carrying amount approximates the fair value, which would be Level 1; inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. All financial instruments above and below are considered Level 2 with the exception of impaired loans of $13,398,000 and $13,223,000 at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, which are considered level 3.  Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument (in thousands).

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, other investments, deposits with no stated maturities, short-term borrowings, and accrued interest approximate fair value. The fair value of securities was calculated using the most recent transaction price or a pricing model, which takes into consideration maturity, yields and quality.  The remaining financial instruments were valued based on the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at various rates in effect for similar instruments entered into as of the end of each respective period shown above.

Note 8. Troubled Debt Restructuring

In the determination of the allowance for loan losses, management considers troubled debt restructurings and subsequent defaults in these restructurings by adjusting the loan grades of such loans, which figure into the environmental factors associated with the allowance. Defaults resulting in charge-offs affect the historical loss experience ratios which are a component of the allowance calculation. Additionally, specific reserves may be established on restructured loans evaluated individually.

In the nine months ended September 30, 2015, there were fifteen loan modifications that were considered to be troubled debt restructurings.  Modifications may have included rate adjustments, revisions to amortization schedules, suspension of principal payments for a temporary period, re-advancing funds to be applied as payments to bring the loan(s) current, or any combination thereof.

Critical Accounting Policies

General

The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The financial information contained within the statements is, to a significant extent, financial information that is based on measures of the financial effects of transactions and events that have already occurred. A variety of factors could affect the ultimate value that is obtained either when earning income, recognizing an expense, recovering an asset or relieving a liability. The Company uses historical loss factors as one factor in determining the inherent loss that may be present in its loan portfolio. Actual losses could differ significantly from the historical factors that are used. The fair value of the investment portfolio is based on period end valuations but changes daily with the market. In addition, GAAP itself may change from one previously acceptable method to another method. Although the economics of these transactions would be the same, the timing of events that would impact these transactions could change.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is an estimate of the losses that may be sustained in the loan portfolio. The allowance is based on two basic principles of accounting: (i) ASC 450 “Contingencies”, which requires that losses be accrued when they are probable of occurring and estimable and (ii) ASC 310 “Receivables”, which requires that losses be accrued based on the differences between the value of collateral, present value of future cash flows or values that are observable in the secondary market and the loan balance.  For further discussion refer to page 31 in the Management Discussion and Analysis.

Goodwill and Intangibles

ASC 805 “Business Combinations” and ASC 350 “Intangibles” require that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. Additionally, it further clarifies the criteria for the initial recognition and measurement of intangible assets separate from goodwill. ASC 350 prescribes the accounting for goodwill and intangible assets subsequent to initial recognition. The provisions of ASC 350 discontinue the amortization of goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives. Instead, these assets will be subject to at least an annual impairment review and more frequently if certain impairment indicators are in evidence. ASC 350 also requires that reporting units be identified for the purpose of assessing potential future impairments of goodwill.

Securities Impairment

For a complete discussion of securities impairment see Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Overview

Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was $6,237,000 or $1.78 per share, compared to $4,236,000 or $1.38 in the same period in 2014, an increase of 47.24%. Noninterest income increased 6.47% and noninterest expense increased 16.66% during the same period.  Net income from Bank operations adjusted for income or loss from Parent activities is as follows:

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)

Results of Operations

As shown in Table I on page 35, the 2015 year to date tax equivalent net interest income increased $2,660,000 or 15.52% compared to the same period in 2014.  Third quarter tax equivalent net interest income increased $735,000 or 12.26% compared to September 30, 2014.  The tax equivalent adjustment to net interest income totaled $65,000 for the quarter.  The year to date yield on earning assets decreased .02%, while the cost of funds decreased .27% compared to the same period in 2014.  The cost of long term debt decreased due to the redemption of the subordinated debt agreements and reduced cost of FHLB advances, this was the primary driver of the reduction of cost of funds.

Year to date, the combination of the increase in yield on assets and the decrease in cost of funds coupled with changes in balance sheet leverage has resulted in the net interest margin increasing to 4.45%, an increase of .16% when compared to the same period in 2014.  Third quarter net interest margin increased to 4.41%, an increase of .05% when compared to September 30, 2014. A schedule of the net interest margin for the nine month and three month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 can be found in Table I on page 35.

The Interest Sensitivity Analysis contained in Table II on page 36 indicates the Company is in an asset sensitive position in the one year time horizon.  This would indicate that in a rising rate environment net interest income and net interest margin would increase as a result of assets repricing faster than liabilities. As the notes to the table indicate, the data was based in part on assumptions as to when certain assets or liabilities would mature or reprice. Approximately 39.88% of rate sensitive assets and 40.22% of rate sensitive liabilities are subject to repricing within one year. Liquid assets have been used to pay off maturing long term FHLB borrowings, which when coupled with depositors reluctance to tie up funds at historically low rates has resulted in the decrease in the positive GAP position in the one year time period.

Noninterest income increased $175,000 or 6.47% for the nine month period ended September 30, 2015.  The increase is primarily due to an increase in insurance and other commissions from the bank subsidiaries.  The noninterest income for the quarter ended September 30, 2015 decreased $7,000 or .70% over the same period in 2014.

Noninterest expense increased $1,910,000 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2015 as compared to 2014. Areas of expense increase were salary and benefits and losses related to other real estate owned.  The Company’s operating costs have always compared favorably to the peer group (Holding Companies with Consolidated Assets of $500 million to $1 billion) due to an excellent asset to employee ratio and below average facilities costs.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)

Balance Sheet

Federal Funds Sold and Interest Bearing Bank Deposits

The Company’s subsidiary bank invests a portion of its excess liquidity in either federal funds sold or interest bearing bank deposits. Federal funds sold offer daily liquidity and pay market rates of interest that at quarter end were benchmarked at 0% to .25% by the Federal Reserve. Actual rates received vary slightly based upon money supply and demand among banks. Interest bearing bank deposits are held either in money market accounts or as short-term certificates of deposits. Combined balances in fed funds sold and interest bearing bank deposits have deceased since year end due to growth in the loan portfolio.

Securities

The Company’s securities portfolio serves several purposes.  Portions of the portfolio are held to assist the Company with liquidity, asset liability management and as security for certain public funds and repurchase agreements.

The securities portfolio consists of investment securities commonly referred to as securities held to maturity and securities available for sale.  Securities are classified as Held to Maturity investment securities when management has the intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity.  Held to Maturity Investment securities are carried at amortized cost.  Securities available for sale include securities that may be sold in response to general market fluctuations, liquidity needs and other similar factors.  Securities available for sale are recorded at market value.  Unrealized holding gains and losses on available for sale securities are excluded from earnings and reported (net of deferred income taxes) as a separate component of stockholders’ equity.

As of September 30, 2015, the market value of securities available for sale exceeded the cost by $47,000. The portfolio is made up of primarily agency securities with an average portfolio life of just under three years. This short average life results in less portfolio volatility and positions the Bank to redeploy assets in response to rising rates. There are no additional scheduled maturities in 2015.

In reviewing investments as of September 30, 2105, there were no securities which met the definition for other than temporary impairment.  Management continues to re-evaluate the portfolio for impairment on a quarterly basis.

Loan Portfolio

The Company operates in a predominately rural area that includes the counties of Rockingham, Page, Shenandoah and Augusta in the western portion of Virginia. The local economy benefits from a variety of businesses including agri-business, manufacturing, service businesses and several universities and colleges.  The Bank is an active residential mortgage and residential construction lender and generally makes commercial loans to small and mid size businesses and farms within its primary service area.

Lending is geographically diversified within the service area.  The only concentration within the portfolio is in construction and development lending.  Management and the Board of Directors review this concentration and other potential areas of concentration quarterly.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)

Loans Held for Investment of $540,415,000 increased $22.2 million at September 30, 2015 compared to December 31, 2014.  The dealer finance portfolio increased $11.4 million, commercial real estate increased $4.9 million, real estate increased $3.1 million and open ended home equities increased $3.0 million.  These increases were offset by decreases in consumer loans of $1.1 million.

Loans Held for Sale totaled 55,482,000 at September 30, 2015, an increase of $42,100,000 compared to December 31, 2014.  The secondary market loan originations have remained strong throughout 2015.  Average balances and income from loans held for sale are detailed in the Table 1 on page 36.

Nonperforming loans include nonaccrual loans, loans 90 days or more past due and restructured loans.   Nonaccrual loans are loans on which interest accruals have been suspended or discontinued permanently.  Nonperforming loans totaled $6,386,000 at September 30, 2015 compared to $6,975,000 at December 31, 2014.  Although the potential exists for loan losses, management believes the bank is generally well secured and continues to actively work with its customers to effect payment.  As of September 30, 2015, the Company holds $2,462,000 of real estate which was acquired through foreclosure. This is a decrease of $1,045,000 compared to December 31, 2013.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses provides for the risk that borrowers will be unable to repay their obligations.  The risk associated with real estate and installment notes to individuals is based upon employment, the local and national economies and consumer confidence.  All of these affect the ability of borrowers to repay indebtedness.  The risk associated with commercial lending is substantially based on the strength of the local and national economies.

Management evaluates the allowance for loan losses on a quarterly basis in light of national and local economic trends, changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio and trends in past due and criticized loans.  Specific factors evaluated include internally generated loan review reports, past due reports, historical loan loss experience and changes in the financial strength of individual borrowers that have been included on the Bank’s watch list or schedule of classified loans.

In evaluating the portfolio, loans are segregated into loans with identified potential losses and pools of loans by type and a general allowance based on a variety of criteria.   Loans with identified potential losses include examiner and bank classified loans. Classified relationships in excess of $500,000 and loans identified as Troubled Debt Restructurings are reviewed individually for impairment under ASC 310. A variety of factors are taken into account when reviewing these credits including borrower cash flow, payment history, fair value of collateral, company management, the industry in which the borrower is involved and economic factors. Loan relationships that are determined to have no impairment are placed back into the appropriate loan pool and reviewed under ASC 450.

Loans that are not impaired are categorized by call report code and an estimate is calculated based on actual loss experience over the last two years.  Dealer finance loans utilize a five year loss history.  The Company will monitor the net losses for this division and adjust based on how the portfolio performs since the department was established in 2012. A general allowance for inherent losses has been established to reflect other unidentified losses within the portfolio. The general allowance is calculated using eight environmental factors (loan growth, unemployment, past due/criticized loans, interest rates, changes in underwriting practices, local real estate industry conditions, and experience of lending staff) with a range for worst and best case.  The general allowance assists in managing recent changes in portfolio risk that may not be captured in individually impaired loans or in the homogeneous pools based on two year loss histories. The Board approves the loan loss provision for each quarter based on this evaluation. An effort is made to keep the actual allowance at or above the midpoint of the range established by the evaluation process.

The allowance for loan losses of $8,870,000 at September 30, 2015 is equal to 1.64% of loans held for investment. This compares to an allowance of $8,725,000 (1.68%) at December 31, 2014.  Based on the evaluation of the loan portfolio described above, management has funded the allowance a total of $300,000 in the first nine months of 2015.  Net charge-offs year to date totaled $155,000.

The overall level of the allowance has been increasing for several years and now approximates the national peer group average.  Based on historical losses, delinquency rates, collateral values of delinquent loans and a thorough review of the loan portfolio, management is of the opinion that the allowance for loan losses fairly states the estimated losses in the current portfolio.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)

Deposits and Other Borrowings

The Company's main source of funding is comprised of deposits received from individuals, governmental entities and businesses located within the Company's service area.  Deposit accounts include demand deposits, savings, money market and certificates of deposit.  Total deposits have decreased $7,688,000 since December 31, 2014.  Time deposits decreased $25,936,000 during this period while demand deposits and savings deposits increased $18,248,000.  The increase in demand deposits and savings deposits is a result of new account growth during the year.  The Bank also participates in the CDARS program.  CDARS (Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service) is a program that allows the bank to accept customer deposits in excess of FDIC limits and through reciprocal agreements with other network participating banks by offering FDIC insurance up to as much as $50 million in deposits. The CDARS program also allows the Bank to purchase funds through its One-Way Buy program. At quarter end the Bank had a total of $12.1 million in CDARS funding, which is a decrease of $18.0 million over December 31, 2014.

Short-term debt

Short-term debt consists of federal funds purchased, daily rate credit obtained from the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB), short-term fixed rate FHLB borrowings and commercial repurchase agreements (repos). Commercial customers deposit operating funds into their checking account and by mutual agreement with the bank their excess funds are swept daily into the repurchase accounts.  These accounts are not considered deposits and are not insured by the FDIC.  The Bank pledges securities held in its investment portfolio as collateral for these short-term loans.  Federal funds purchased are overnight borrowings obtained from the Bank’s primary correspondent bank to manage short-term liquidity needs. Borrowings from the FHLB have been used to finance loans held for sale and also to finance the increase in short-term residential and commercial construction loans.  As of September 30, 2015 there were $30,000,000 in FHLB short-term borrowings, federal funds purchased totaled $3,542,000 and commercial repurchase agreements totaled $4,697,000.  This compared to FHLB short term borrowings of $10,000,000 and commercial repurchase agreements of $3,423,000 at December 31, 2014.

Long-term debt

Borrowings from the FHLB continue to be an important source of funding.  The Company’s subsidiary bank borrows funds on a fixed rate basis.  These borrowings are used to fund loan growth and also assist the Bank in matching the maturity of its fixed rate real estate loan portfolio with the maturity of its debt and thus reduce its exposure to interest rate changes.  There were $982,000 of scheduled repayments and $30,000,000 in additional borrowings during the nine months ended September 30, 2015.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)

Capital

The Company successfully completed a private placement of common stock ($12 million) in March 2014 and a public offering of mandatorily convertible preferred stock in December 2014 ($10 million).  The Company intends to use the proceeds from the common stock for general corporate purposes, including organic growth, new market expansion and possible future acquisitions.  The Company used the proceeds from the preferred stock offering to redeem subordinated debt agreements.

The Company seeks to maintain a strong capital base to expand facilities, promote public confidence, support current operations and grow at a manageable level.

March 31, 2015 the Company implemented the Basel III capital requirements.  As ofSeptember 30, 2015 total risk based capital and leverage ratios of 15.80% and 12.57%, respectively, as compared to year end of 17.35% and 12.88%, respectively. For the same period, Bank-only total risk based capital and leverage ratios were 15.71% and 12.50%, respectively, as compared to year end of 17.12% and 12.70%, respectively. Both the Company and the Bank also began reporting common equity tier 1 capital ratios of 12.95% and 14.46%, respectively.  For both the Company and the Bank these ratios are in excess of regulatory minimums to be considered “well capitalized”.
 
Liquidity

Liquidity is the ability to meet present and future financial obligations through either the sale or maturity of existing assets or the acquisition of additional funds through liability management. Liquid assets include cash, interest-bearing deposits with banks, federal funds sold, investments and loans maturing within one year.  The Company's ability to obtain deposits and purchase funds at favorable rates determines its liquidity exposure.  As a result of the Company's management of liquid assets and the ability to generate liquidity through liability funding, management believes that the Company maintains overall liquidity sufficient to satisfy its depositors' requirements and meet its customers' credit needs.

Additional sources of liquidity available to the Company include, but are not limited to, loan repayments, the ability to obtain deposits through the adjustment of interest rates and the purchasing of federal funds.  To further meet its liquidity needs, the Company’s subsidiary bank also maintains a line of credit with its primary correspondent financial institution.  The Bank also has a line of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta that allows for secured borrowings.

Interest Rate Sensitivity

In conjunction with maintaining a satisfactory level of liquidity, management must also control the degree of interest rate risk assumed on the balance sheet.  Managing this risk involves regular monitoring of interest sensitive assets relative to interest sensitive liabilities over specific time intervals. The Company monitors its interest rate sensitivity periodically and makes adjustments as needed. There are no off balance sheet items that will impair future liquidity.

As of September 30, 2015, the Company had a cumulative Gap Rate Sensitivity Ratio of 11.21% for the one year repricing period. This generally indicates that earnings would increase in an increasing interest rate environment as assets reprice more quickly than liabilities. However, in actual practice, this may not be the case as balance sheet leverage, funding needs and competitive factors within the market could dictate the need to raise deposit rates more quickly.  Management constantly monitors the Company’s interest rate risk and has decided the current position is acceptable for a well-capitalized community bank.

A summary of asset and liability repricing opportunities is shown in Table II, on page 37.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)

Effect of Newly Issued Accounting Standards

In June 2015, the FASB issued amendments to clarify the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC), correct unintended application of guidance, and make minor improvements to the ASC that are not expected to have a significant effect on current accounting practice or create a significant administrative cost to most entities. The amendments were effective upon issuance (June 12, 2015) for amendments that do not have transition guidance. Amendments that are subject to transition guidance will be effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company does not expect these amendments to have a material effect on its financial statements.

In August 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with
Customers. As a result of the deferral, the guidance in ASU 2014-09 will be effective for the Company for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company does not expect these amendments to have a material effect on its financial statements.

Other accounting standards that have been issued by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies are not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, result of operations or cash flows.

Existence of Securities and Exchange Commission Web Site

The Securities and Exchange Commission maintains a Web site that contains reports, proxy and information statements and other information regarding registrants that file electronically with the Commission, including F & M Bank Corp. and the address is (http: //www.sec.gov).

Table II reflects the earlier of the maturity or repricing dates for various assets and liabilities as of September 30, 2015.  In preparing the above table, no assumptions were made with respect to loan prepayments. Loan principal payments are included in the earliest period in which the loan matures or can reprice.  Principal payments on installment loans scheduled prior to maturity are included in the period of maturity or repricing. Proceeds from the redemption of investments and deposits are included in the period of maturity.  Estimated maturities of deposits, which have no stated maturity dates, were derived from guidance contained in FDICIA 305.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As a result of the enactment of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, issuers such as F & M Bank Corp. that file periodic reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Act") are required to include in those reports certain information concerning the issuer's controls and procedures for complying with the disclosure requirements of the federal securities laws.  These disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports it files or submits under the Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including its principal executive officer or officers and principal financial officer or officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
As required, we will evaluate the effectiveness of these disclosure controls and procedures on a quarterly basis, and most recently did so as of the end of the period covered by this report.
 
The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13(a)-15(e) of the Act), have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective for purposes of Rule 13(a)-15(b).
