2. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

On May 20, 2011 the Company completed the purchase of the NewBridge Bank branch in Harrisonburg, Virginia (the "Harrisonburg branch"). As part of the agreement, the Company purchased loans of $72.5 million and assumed deposit liabilities of $48.7 million, and purchased the related fixed assets of the branch and a potential branch site in Waynesboro, Virginia. The Company operates the acquired bank branch under the name Union First Market Bank. The acquisition, which allowed the Company to establish immediately a meaningful presence in a new banking market, is consistent with the Company's secondary growth strategy of expanding operations along the I-81 corridor. The Company's condensed consolidated statements of income include the results of operations of the Harrisonburg branch from the closing date of the acquisition.

In connection with the acquisition, the Company recorded $1.8 million of goodwill and $9,500 of core deposit intangible. The core deposit intangible of $9,500 was expensed in the current period. The recorded goodwill was allocated to the community banking segment of the Company and is deductible for tax purposes.

The Company acquired the $72.5 million loan portfolio at a fair value discount of $1.7 million. The discount represents expected credit losses, adjustments to market interest rates and liquidity adjustments. The performing loan portfolio fair value estimate was $70.5 million and the impaired loan portfolio fair value estimate was $276,000.

Harrisonburg Branch Acquisition

In the second quarter interest income of approximately $392,000 was recorded on loans acquired in the Harrisonburg branch acquisition. The outstanding principal balance and the carrying amount of these loans included in the consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2011 are as follows (dollars in thousands):

 

Outstanding principal balance

   $  60,323   

Carrying amount

   $  58,848   

Loans obtained in the acquisition of the Harrisonburg branch for which there is specific evidence of credit deterioration and for which it was probable that the Company would be unable to collect all contractually required principal and interest payments represent less than 0.01% of the Company's consolidated assets and, accordingly, are not considered material.

The amounts of the Harrisonburg branch revenue and earnings included in the Company's consolidated income statement for the six months ended June 30, 2011, and the revenue and earnings of the combined entity had the acquisition date been January 1, 2010, are presented in the pro forma table below. These results combine the historical results of the Harrisonburg branch into the Company's consolidated statement of income and, while certain adjustments were made for the estimated impact of certain fair valuation adjustments and other acquisition-related activity, they are not indicative of what would have occurred had the acquisition taken place on January 1, 2010. In particular, no adjustments have been made to include provision for credit losses in 2010 on the acquired loan portfolio and related branch specific income taxes. The disclosure of the Harrisonburg branch post-acquisition revenue and net income were not practicable due to combining its operations with the Company's largest affiliate shortly after the acquisition.

The 2011 supplemental pro forma earnings were adjusted to exclude $498,000 of acquisition-related costs incurred in 2011 and $149,000 of nonrecurring income principally related to the fair value adjustments to acquisition-date loans and deposits. The 2010 supplemental pro forma earnings were adjusted to include these charges.

Acquisition-related expenses associated with the acquisition of Harrisonburg branch were $204,000 and $498,000 for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2011, respectively, and are recorded in "Other operating expenses" in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of income. There were no acquisition-related expenses related to the Harrisonburg branch in 2010. Such costs included principally system conversion and integrating operations charges which have been expensed as incurred.

First Market Bank Acquisition

Interest income on acquired loans for the second quarter of 2011 was approximately $10.7 million. The outstanding principal balance and the carrying amount of these loans included in the consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2011 are as follows (dollars in thousands):

 

Outstanding principal balance

   $  706,387   

Carrying amount

   $  695,825   

Loans obtained in the acquisition of the First Market Bank for which there is specific evidence of credit deterioration and for which it was probable that the Company would be unable to collect all contractually required principal and interest payments represent less than 0.29% of the Company's consolidated assets and, accordingly, are not considered material.

During the second quarter of 2011, the Company compared the expected prepayments at acquisition to actual payments and anticipated future payments on three purchased performing loan pools. The slower prepayment speed noted on real estate, commercial real estate and auto pools during this assessment resulted in an adjustment to the fair value discount accretion rate. This is considered a change in accounting estimate and resulted in a lower effective yield in each pool.
