Note 11 - Adoption of New Accounting Standards
Update Number 2014-04 – Receivables—Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40): Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure. This amendment is intended to clarify when a creditor should be considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan such that the loan should be derecognized and the real estate recognized. These amendments clarify that an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs, and a creditor is considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan, upon either: (a) the creditor obtaining legal title to the residential real estate property upon completion of a foreclosure; or (b) the borrower conveying all interest in the residential real estate property to the creditor to satisfy that loan through completion of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or through a similar legal agreement. The amendments are effective for the Bancorp for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014. Management has updated policies for this new accounting pronouncement. This pronouncement has not had a material impact on the Bancorp’s consolidated financial statements.
 
Update Number 2014-09 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This accounting standard update adopts a standardized approach for revenue recognition and was a joint effort with the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). The new revenue recognition standard is based on a core principle of recognizing revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This update does not apply to financial instruments. The update is effective for public entities for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early implementation is not allowed for public companies. Management does not believe the adoption of this update will have a material effect on the Bancorp’s consolidated financial statements.
