Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements  
 
This report includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning and protections of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. All statements other than statements of historical fact are statements that could be forward-looking statements. You can identify these forward-looking statements through our use of words such as “may,” “will,” “anticipate,” “assume,” “should,” “indicate,” “would,” “believe,” “contemplate,” “expect,” “estimate,” “continue,” “plan,” “project,” “could,” “intend,” “target” and other similar words and expressions of the future. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:
●
statements of our goals, intentions and expectations;
●
statements regarding our business plans, prospects, growth and operating strategies;
●
statements regarding the current global COVID-19 pandemic;
●
statements regarding the asset quality of our loan and investment portfolios; and
●
estimates of our risks and future costs and benefits.
 
These forward-looking statements are based on current beliefs and expectations of the management of Eagle Bancorp Montana, Inc. (“Eagle” or the “Company”) and Opportunity Bank of Montana (“OBMT” or the “Bank”), Eagle’s wholly-owned subsidiary, and are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control. In addition, these forward-looking statements are subject to assumptions with respect to future business strategies and decisions that are subject to change.
 
The following factors, among others, could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements:
 
●
changes in laws or government regulations or policies affecting financial institutions, including changes in regulatory fees and capital requirements;
 
●
the negative impacts and disruptions resulting from the continuing outbreak of the novel coronavirus, or COVID-19, on the economies and communities we serve, which may likely have an adverse impact on our credit portfolio, goodwill, stock price, borrowers and the economy as a whole both globally and domestically;
 
●
local, regional, national and international economic and market conditions and events and the impact they may have on us, our customers and our assets and liabilities;
 
●
competition among depository and other financial institutions;
 
●
risks related to the concentration of our business in Montana, including risks associated with changes in the prices, values and sales volume of residential and commercial real estate in Montana;
 
●
inflation and changes in the interest rate environment that reduce our margins or reduce the fair value of financial instruments;
 
●
our ability to attract deposits and other sources of funding or liquidity;
 
●
changes or volatility in the securities markets;
 
●
our ability to implement our growth strategy, including identifying and consummating suitable acquisitions, raising additional capital to finance such transactions, entering new markets, possible failures in realizing the anticipated benefits from such acquisitions and an inability of our personnel, systems and infrastructure to keep pace with such growth;
 
●
the effect of acquisitions we may make, if any, including, without limitation, the failure to achieve expected revenue growth and/or expense savings from such acquisitions;
 
●
risks related to the integration of any businesses we have acquired or expect to acquire, including exposure to potential asset quality and credit quality risks and unknown or contingent liabilities, the time and costs associated with integrating systems, technology platforms, procedures and personnel;
 
●
potential impairment on the goodwill we have recorded or may record in connection with business acquisitions;
 
●
political developments, uncertainties or instability;
 
●
our ability to enter new markets successfully and capitalize on growth opportunities;
 
●
changes in consumer spending, borrowing and savings habits;
 
●
our ability to continue to increase and manage our commercial and residential real estate, multi-family and commercial business loans;
 
●
possible impairments of securities held by us, including those issued by government entities and government sponsored enterprises;
 
●
the level of future deposit insurance premium assessments;
 
●
our ability to develop and maintain secure and reliable information technology systems, effectively defend ourselves against cyberattacks, or recover from breaches to our cybersecurity infrastructure;
 
●
the failure of assumptions underlying the establishment of allowance for possible loan losses and other estimates;
 
●
changes in the financial performance and/or condition of our borrowers and their ability to repay their loans when due; and
 
●
the effect of changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted by the regulatory agencies, as well as the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the Financial Accounting Standards Board and other accounting standard setters.
 
Because of these and other uncertainties, our actual future results may be materially different from the results indicated by these forward-looking statements. For a further list and description of various risks, relevant factors and uncertainties that could cause future results or events to differ materially from those expressed or implied in our forward-looking statements, see the Item 1A, “Risk Factors” and Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” sections contained elsewhere in this report, as well as our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, any subsequent Reports on Form 10-Q and Form 8-K, and other filings with the SEC. We do not undertake any obligation to publicly update or correct any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that subsequently occur, or of which we hereafter become aware.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
 
 
NOTE 1.   ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Organization
 
Eagle Bancorp Montana, Inc. (“Eagle” or the “Company”), is a Delaware corporation that holds 100 % of the capital stock of Opportunity Bank of Montana (“OBMT” or the “Bank”). The Bank was founded in 1922 as a Montana-chartered building and loan association and has conducted operations and maintained its administrative office in Helena, Montana since that time. In 1975, the Bank adopted a federal thrift charter and in October 2014 converted to a Montana chartered commercial bank and became a member bank in the Federal Reserve System.
 
In September 2017, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with TwinCo, Inc. ("TwinCo"), a Montana corporation, and TwinCo’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Ruby Valley Bank, a Montana chartered commercial bank to acquire 100 % of TwinCo’s equity voting interests. On January 31, 2018, TwinCo merged with and into Eagle, with Eagle continuing as the surviving corporation. Ruby Valley Bank operated two branches in Madison County, Montana.
 
In August 2018, Eagle entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Big Muddy Bancorp, Inc. (“BMB”), a Montana corporation and BMB’s wholly-owned subsidiary, The State Bank of Townsend (“SBOT”), a Montana chartered commercial bank to acquire 100 % of BMB’s equity voting interests. On January 1, 2019, BMB merged with and into Eagle, with Eagle continuing as the surviving corporation. SBOT operated four branches in Townsend, Dutton, Denton and Choteau, Montana.
 
In August 2019, Eagle and OBMT, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Western Holding Company of Wolf Point (“WHC”), a Montana corporation, and WHC’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Western Bank of Wolf Point (“WB”), a Montana chartered commercial bank. The Merger Agreement provided that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, WHC would merge with and into Eagle, with Eagle continuing as the surviving corporation. The merger closed on January 1, 2020. WB operated one branch in Wolf Point, Montana.
 
The Bank currently has 23  full service branches. The Bank’s principal business is accepting deposits and, together with funds generated from operations and borrowings, investing in various types of loans and securities. The Bank also operates certain branches under the names Dutton State Bank, Farmers State Bank of Denton and The State Bank of Townsend.
 
Basis of Financial Statement Presentation and Use of Estimates
 
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10 -Q and Article 10 of Regulation S- X as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). It is recommended that these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10 -K with all of the audited information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 , as filed with the SEC on March 11, 2020. In the opinion of management, all normal adjustments and recurring accruals considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented have been included.
 
The results of operations for the six -month period ended June 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020  or any other period. In preparing consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated statement of financial condition and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, mortgage servicing rights, the fair value of financial instruments, the valuation of goodwill and deferred tax assets and liabilities.
 
Principles of Consolidation
 
The consolidated financial statements include Eagle, the Bank, Eagle Bancorp Statutory Trust I (the “Trust”) and Western Financial Services, Inc. (“WFS”). WFS was acquired through the WHC merger. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

NOTE 2.  MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS – continued
 
All of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recognized at their acquisition-date fair value, while transaction costs and restructuring costs associated with the business combinations were expensed as incurred. Determining the fair value of assets and liabilities is a complicated process involving significant judgement regarding methods and assumptions used to calculate estimated fair values. The excess of the acquisition consideration over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, if any, is allocated to goodwill. The goodwill recorded is not deductible for federal income tax purposes.
 
The following table summarizes the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, consideration paid and the resulting goodwill.

NOTE 2.  MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS – continued
 
For acquisitions, the fair value analysis of the loan portfolios resulted in a valuation adjustment for each loan based on an amortization schedule of expected cash flow. Individual amortization schedules were used for each loan over a certain amount and those with specifically identified loss exposure. The remainder of the loans were grouped by type and risk rating into loan pools (based on loan type, fixed or variable interest rate, revolving or term payments and risk rating). Yield inputs for the amortization schedules included contractual interest rates, estimated prepayment speeds, liquidity adjustments and market yields. Credit inputs for the amortization schedules included probability of payment default, loss given default rates and individually identified loss exposure.             
  
The total accretable discount on WHC acquired loans was $ 1,166,000 as of January 1, 2020. During the three and   six  months ended June 30, 2020 , accretion of the loan discount was $ 118,000 and $ 248,000 , respectively. The remaining accretable loan discount was $ 918,000  as of June 30, 2020 .
 
The total accretable discount on BMB acquired loans was $ 2,813,000 as of January 1, 2019. During the year ended December 31, 2019, accretion of the loan discount was $ 1,480,000 . During the three and   six  months ended June 30, 2020 , accretion of the loan discount was $ 212,000 and $ 331,000 , respectively. The remaining accretable loan discount was $ 1,002,000  as of June 30, 2020 .
 
One impaired loan was acquired through the WHC acquisition with an insignificant balance as of January 1, 2020. Four impaired loans were acquired through the BMB acquisition with a net balance of $ 556,000 as of January 1, 2019. The balance of the acquired impaired loans as of June 30, 2020 was $ 129,000 .
 
Fair value adjustments of $ 590,000 and $ 276,000 were recorded for WHC and BMB, respectively, related to premises and equipment. The Company used independent third party appraisals in the determination of the fair value of acquired assets.
 
Core deposit intangible assets of $ 208,000 were recorded for WHC and are being amortized using an accelerated method over the estimated useful lives of the related deposits of 10 years. Core deposit intangible assets of $ 1,988,000 were recorded for BMB and are being amortized using an accelerated method over the estimated useful lives of the related deposits of 10 years.
 
For acquisitions, the core deposit intangible value is a function of the difference between the cost of the acquired core deposits and the alternative cost of funds. These cash flow streams were discounted to present value. The fair value of other deposit accounts acquired were valued by estimating future cash flows to be received or paid from individual or homogenous groups of assets and liabilities and then discounting those cash flows to a present value using rates of return that were available in financial markets for similar financial instruments on or near the acquisition date.
 
Direct costs related to the acquisitions were expensed as incurred. The Company recorded acquisition costs related to WHC of $ 29,000 and $ 157,000  during the three and  six  months ended June 30, 2020 , respectively and $ 818,000 during the year ended December 31, 2019. The Company recorded acquisition costs related to BMB of $ 1,380,000 and $ 804,000 during the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Acquisition costs included professional fees and data processing expenses incurred related to the acquisitions.
 
Operations of WHC have been included in the consolidated financial statements since January 1, 2020. The Company does not consider WHC a separate reporting segment and does not track the amount of revenues and net income attributable to WHC since acquisition. As such, it is impracticable to determine such amounts for the period from January 1, 2020 through June 30, 2020 .
 
Operations of BMB have been included in the consolidated financial statements since January 1, 2019. The Company does not consider BMB a separate reporting segment and does not track the amount of revenues and net income attributable to BMB since acquisition. As such, it is impracticable to determine such amounts for the period from January 1, 2019 through June 30, 2020 .

Unrealized losses associated with investments are believed to be caused by changing market conditions, primarily spreads related to U.S. treasuries, that are considered to be temporary and the Company does not intend to sell the securities, and it is not likely to be required to sell these securities prior to maturity. Based on the Company’s evaluation of these securities, no other-than-temporary impairment was recorded for the three and   six  months ended June 30, 2020 , or 2019 . As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 , there were, respectively, 28  and 28  securities in unrealized loss positions that were considered to be temporarily impaired and therefore an impairment charge has not been recorded.
 
As of June 30, 2020 , 2  U.S. government obligations and U.S. treasury obligations had unrealized losses of approximately 0.03 % of the amortized cost associated with these securities. At December 31, 2019 , there were no U.S. government or U.S. treasury obligations with unrealized losses. As of June 30, 2020 ,  9  municipal obligations had unrealized losses of approximately 1.08 % of the amortized cost associated with these securities. At December 31, 2019 , 10  municipal obligations had unrealized losses of approximately 0.83 % of the amortized cost associated with these securities. As of June 30, 2020 , 3  corporate obligations had unrealized losses of approximately 1.50 % of the amortized cost associated with these securities. At December 31, 2019 , 1  corporate obligation had an unrealized loss of approximately 0.80 % of the amortized cost associated with these securities. As management has the ability to hold debt securities until maturity, or for the foreseeable future, no declines are deemed to be other than temporary.
 
As of June 30, 2020 , 4  mortgage-backed securities (“MBSs”) and collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”) had unrealized losses of approximately 0.45 % of the amortized cost associated with these securities. At December 31, 2019 , 12  MBSs and CMOs had unrealized losses of approximately 0.63 % of the amortized cost associated with these securities. Management believes that these securities are only temporarily impaired due to changes in market interest rates or the widening of market spreads subsequent to the initial purchase of the securities, and not due to concerns regarding the underlying credit of the issuers or the underlying collateral. 
 
As of June 30, 2020 , 10  asset-backed securities (“ABSs”) had unrealized losses of approximately 4.00 % of the amortized cost associated with these securities. At December 31, 2019 , 5  ABSs had unrealized losses of approximately 2.68 % of the amortized cost associated with these securities. Management believes that these securities are only temporarily impaired due to changes in market interest rates or the widening of market spreads subsequent to the initial purchase of the securities, and not due to concerns regarding the underlying credit of the issuers or the underlying collateral.

NOTE 11. DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES  
 
The Company enters into commitments to originate and sell mortgage loans. The Bank uses derivatives to hedge the risk of changes in fair values of interest rate lock commitments and mortgage loans held-for-sale. An optimal amount of mortgage loans are sold directly into bulk commitments with investors at the time an interest rate is locked, other loans are sold on an individual best efforts basis at the time an interest rate is locked, and the remaining balance of locked loans are hedged using To-Be-Announced (“TBA”) mortgage-backed securities or bulk mandatory forward loan sale commitments.
 
Derivatives are accounted for as free-standing or economic derivatives and are measured at fair value. Derivatives are recorded as either other assets or other liabilities on the consolidated statements of condition.
 
Derivatives are summarized as follows:

NOTE 1 2 . FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
 
Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. 
 
Assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value are grouped in three levels within the fair value hierarchy based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value.
 
The fair value hierarchy is as follows:
 
■
Level 1 Inputs – Valuations are based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
 
■
Level 2 Inputs – Valuations are based on quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-based valuations for which all significant assumptions are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
 
■
Level 3 Inputs – Valuations are based on unobservable inputs that may include significant management judgement and estimation.
 
A description of the valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy at the reporting date, is set forth below.
 
Available-for-Sale Securities – Securities classified as available-for-sale are reported at fair value utilizing Level 1 (nationally recognized securities exchanges) and Level 2 inputs. For level 2 securities, the Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include but is not limited to dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U. S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayments speeds, credit information and the bond’s terms and conditions.
 
Loans Held-for-Sale – These loans are reported at fair value. Fair value is determined based on expected proceeds based on committed sales contracts and commitments of similar loans if not already committed and are considered Level 2 inputs.
 
Derivative Instruments  – The fair value of the interest rate lock commitments, forward TBA mortgage-backed securities and mandatory forward commitments are estimated using quoted or published market prices for similar instruments and adjusted for factors such as pull-through rate assumptions based on historical information, where appropriate. Interest rate lock commitments are considered Level 3 inputs and forward TBA mortgage-backed securities and mandatory forward commitments are considered Level 2 inputs.
 
Impaired Loans – Impaired loans are reported at the fair value of the underlying collateral if repayment is expected solely from the collateral or using a discounted cash flow if the loan is not collateral dependent. Collateral values are estimated using Level 3 inputs based on internally customized discounting criteria.
 
Real Estate and Other Repossessed Assets – Fair values are determined at the time the loan is foreclosed upon and the asset is transferred from loans. The value is based primarily on third party appraisals, less costs to sell and are considered Level 3 inputs for determining fair value. Repossessed assets are reviewed and evaluated periodically for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly.
 
Mortgage Servicing Rights – The fair value of mortgage servicing rights are estimated using net present value of expected cash flows based on a third party model that incorporates industry assumptions and is adjusted for factors such as prepayments speeds and are considered level 3 inputs.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016 - 02, Leases (Topic 842 ) intended to improve financial reporting regarding leasing transactions. The new standard affects all companies and organizations that lease assets. The standard requires organizations to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases if the lease terms are more than 12 months. The guidance also requires qualitative and quantitative disclosures providing additional information about the amounts recorded in the financial statements. The amendments in this update were effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years and was adopted by the Company in the first quarter of 2019. The adoption of the standard did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements. The Company’s operating leases primarily relate to branch locations. We currently lease six locations that are full-service branches and one mortgage lending branch. The leases expire on various dates through 2028. As a result of adopting the lease standard on January 1, 2019, the Company recorded right-of-use assets of $ 2,374,000 and corresponding lease liabilities. The right-of-use assets are included in premises and equipment, net and the lease liabilities are included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated statement of financial condition.
 
In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017 - 08, Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310 - 20 ) to shorten the amortization period for certain purchased callable debt securities held at a premium to the earliest call date. Currently, entities generally amortize the premium as a yield adjustment over the contractual life of the security. The guidance does not change the accounting for callable debt securities held at a discount. For public business entities, the guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this standard in the first quarter of 2019  did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements, as we typically do not invest in these types of securities.
 
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018 - 13,  Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820 ) to remove disclosure requirements that no longer are considered cost beneficial, modify/clarify specific requirements of certain disclosures and add disclosure requirements identified as relevant. The amendment became effective for the Company on January 1, 2020 and did not have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.
 
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements  
 
In September 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016 - 13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326 ) intended to improve financial reporting by requiring timelier recording of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments held by financial institutions and other organizations. The standard requires an organization to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Financial institutions and other organizations will now use forward-looking information to better inform their credit loss estimates. The standard also requires enhanced disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of an organization’s portfolio. These disclosures include qualitative and quantitative requirements that provide additional information about the amounts recorded in the financial statements. Additionally, the standard amends the accounting for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration.
 
In October 2019, the FASB amended the effective date of the standard. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. An entity will apply the amendments in this update through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective (that is, a modified-retrospective approach).

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
 
NOTE 13.  RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS – continued
 
The Company believes the amendments in this update will have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and is continuing to evaluate the significance of that impact, even though the adoption date has been deferred. In that regard, we have established a working group under the direction of our Chief Financial Officer and Chief Credit Officer. The group is composed of individuals from the finance and credit administration areas of the Company. We are currently developing an implementation plan, including assessment of processes, segmentation of the loan portfolio and identifying and adding data fields necessary for analysis. The adoption of this standard is likely to result in an increase in the allowance for loan and lease losses as a result of changing from an “incurred loss” model to an “expected loss” model. While we currently cannot reasonably estimate the impact of adopting this standard, we expect the impact will be influenced by the composition, characteristics and quality of our loan and securities portfolios, as well as the general economic conditions and forecasts as of the adoption date.
 
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017 - 04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350 ) to amend and simplify current goodwill impairment testing to eliminate Step 2 from the current provisions. Under the new guidance, an entity should perform the goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying value and recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if a quantitative impairment test is necessary. The guidance is effective for the Company on January 1, 2023 and adoption of the standard is being evaluated to assess the impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
 
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020 - 04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848 ) which provides temporary optional expedients to ease the financial reporting burdens of the expected market transition from London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) to an alternative reference rate such as SOFR. The guidance was effective upon issuance and generally can be applied through December 31, 2022. The Bank is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the date of adoption and the potential impact.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
 
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
 
Overview  
 
The Company’s primary business activity is the ownership of its wholly owned subsidiary, Opportunity Bank of Montana (the “Bank”). The Bank is a Montana chartered commercial bank that focuses on both consumer and commercial lending. It engages in typical banking activities: acquiring deposits from local markets and originating loans and investing in securities. The Bank’s primary component of earnings is its net interest margin (also called spread or margin), the difference between interest income and interest expense. The net interest margin is managed by management (through the pricing of its products and by the types of products offered and kept in portfolio), and is affected by changes in market interest rates. The Bank also generates noninterest income in the form of fee income and gain on sale of loans.
 
The Bank has a strong mortgage lending focus, with a large portion of its loan originations represented by single-family residential mortgages, which has enabled it to successfully market home equity loans, as well as a wide range of shorter term consumer loans for various personal needs (automobiles, recreational vehicles, etc.). In recent years, the Bank has also focused on adding commercial loans to its portfolio, both real estate and non-real estate. We have made significant progress in this initiative. The purpose of this diversification is to mitigate the Bank’s dependence on the residential mortgage market, as well as to improve its ability to manage its spread. Recent acquisitions have added to our agricultural loans, which generally have shorter maturities and nominally higher interest rates. This has provided additional interest income and improved interest rate sensitivity. The Bank’s management recognizes that fee income will also enable it to be less dependent on specialized lending and it now maintains a significant loan serviced portfolio which provides a steady source of fee income. Fee income is also supplemented with fees generated from the Bank’s deposit accounts. The Bank has a high percentage of non-maturity deposits, such as checking accounts and savings accounts, which allows management flexibility in managing its spread. Non-maturity deposits and certificates of deposits do not automatically reprice as interest rates rise. Gain on sale of loans also provides significant noninterest income in periods of high mortgage loan origination volumes. Such income will be adversely affected in periods of lower mortgage activity.
 
The Company previously offered wealth management services through financial advisors employed by the Bank. Income from wealth management services was included in noninterest income on the consolidated statement of income. The company discontinued its wealth management services during July of 2019.
 
Management continues to focus on improving the Bank’s earnings. Management believes the Bank needs to continue to concentrate on increasing net interest margin, other areas of fee income and control of operating expenses to achieve earnings growth going forward. Management’s strategy of growing the bank’s loan portfolio and deposit base is expected to help achieve these goals as follows: loans typically earn higher rates of return than investments; a larger deposit base should yield higher fee income; increasing the asset base will reduce the relative impact of fixed operating costs. The biggest challenge to the strategy is funding the growth of the Bank’s balance sheet in an efficient manner. Though deposit growth has been steady, it may become more difficult to maintain due to significant competition and possible reduced customer demand for deposits as customers may shift into other asset classes.
 
The level and movement of interest rates impacts the Bank’s earnings as well. The Federal Open Market Committee changed the federal funds target rate from 2.50% to 1.75% during the year ended December 31, 2019. The rate decreased from 1.75% to 0.25% during the six months ended June 30, 2020. The rate reductions add continued pressure on loan yields.
 
Recent Events
 
COVID-19
 
The second quarter performance was strong, however, the Company has continued to see the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and its consequences on our Montana communities. The Bank continues to closely monitor borrowers and businesses serviced and is providing debt service relief for those that have been impacted.
 
Restaurants, lodging, schools, childcare, health care, ranchers, farmers and entertainment industries, among others, have seen a dramatic change in revenues for their business. The Bank evaluates exposure in the most affected industries. The Bank continues to reach out to specific borrowers to asses the risks and understand their needs.

Recent Events – continued
 
COVID-19 – continued
 
The Bank has offered multiple accommodation options to its clients, including 90-day deferrals, forbearances and interest only payments. As of June 30, 2020, there were 222 loans totaling $77.73 million deferring payments for 90 days, primarily from the lessors of nonresidential buildings, hotels, restaurants and bars industries. Approximately 93 borrowers representing $47.98 million in loans have been approved for up to 6-months interest only payments. There have been approximately 121 forbearances approved for residential mortgage loans, of which 104 are sold and serviced. Our interest income in future periods could be reduced as a result of such measures. In addition, it is possible that our asset quality measures could worsen at future measurement periods if the effects of COVID-19 are prolonged. Utilization of credit lines were 83.4% at the end of the quarter compared to 84.6% for the previous quarter which aligns with historical usage. The Paycheck Protection Program is expected to provide some temporary relief to small business customers of Eagle but the extent of the impact the pandemic will have on businesses’ ability to sustain operations is unclear at this point. Eagle will continue to closely monitor each of its loans for risk.
 
Our fee income could be reduced due to COVID-19. In keeping with guidance from regulators, we are actively working with COVID-19 affected customers to waive fees from a variety of sources, such as, but not limited to, insufficient funds and overdraft fees, early withdrawal fees, ATM fees, account maintenance fees, etc. These reductions in fees are thought, at this time, to be temporary in conjunction with the length of the expected COVID-19 related economic crisis. At this time, we are unable to project the materiality of such an impact, but recognize the breadth of the economic impact is likely to impact our fee income in future periods.
 
On March 27, 2020, Congress passed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) providing economic relief for the country, including the $349 billion Small Business Administration (“SBA”) Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) to fund short-term loans for small businesses. In April 2020, additional funding was approved for the PPP. Eagle began taking loan applications from its small business clients immediately after the program was implemented, and as of June 30, 2020, had helped 742 customers receive $44.85 million in SBA PPP loans.
 
As of June 30, 2020, all of our capital ratios, and our subsidiary bank’s capital ratios, were in excess of all regulatory requirements. While we believe that we have sufficient capital to withstand an extended economic recession brought about by COVID-19, our reported and regulatory capital ratios could be adversely impacted by further credit losses. We rely on cash on hand as well as dividends from our subsidiary bank to service our debt. If our capital deteriorates such that our subsidiary bank is unable to pay dividends to us for an extended period of time, we may not be able to service our debt.
 
While certain valuation assumptions and judgments will change to account for pandemic-related circumstances such as widening credit spreads, we do not anticipate significant changes in methodology used to determine the fair value of assets measured in accordance with GAAP.
 
As of June 30, 2020, our goodwill was not impaired. COVID-19 could cause a further and sustained decline in our stock price or the occurrence of what management would deem to be a triggering event that could, under certain circumstances, cause us to perform a goodwill impairment test and result in an impairment charge being recorded for that period. In the event that we conclude that all or a portion of our goodwill is impaired, a non-cash charge for the amount of such impairment would be recorded to earnings. Such a charge would have no impact on tangible capital or regulatory capital. At June 30, 2020 we had goodwill of $20.80 million.
 
While all industries have and will continue to experience adverse impacts as a result of COVID-19 virus, we had exposures in the following 5 largest concentrations by industry, as a percentage of loans as of June 30, 2020:  lessors of nonresidential buildings (10.0%), lessors of residential buildings (5+ units) (6.8%), construction and related (8.0%), farm and ranch related (8.2%) and hotels (3.4%).  
 
The Company is committed to assisting our customers and communities in this time of need. The State of Montana entered its Phase 2 reopening on June 1, 2020 and Eagle reopened branch lobbies. However, due to increased COVID-19 cases throughout the state, branch lobbies were closed again. In addition, effective July 16, 2020, a mandatory mask directive for indoor areas open to the public was implemented for the State of Montana. Accommodations have been made for employees to work from home when feasible while keeping drive-ups open and scheduling in-person appointments.

Acquisitions
 
The Bank has used growth through mergers or acquisition in addition to its strategy of organic growth. In September 2017, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with TwinCo, Inc. (“TwinCo”), a Montana corporation, and TwinCo’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Ruby Valley Bank, a Montana chartered commercial bank. Ruby Valley Bank operated two branches in Madison County, Montana. The transaction provided an opportunity to expand market presence and lending activities, particularly in agricultural lending. On January 31, 2018, TwinCo merged with and into Eagle, with Eagle continuing as the surviving corporation. The total consideration paid was $18.93 million and included cash consideration of $9.90 million and common stock issued of $9.03 million.
 
In August 2018, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Big Muddy Bancorp, Inc. (“BMB”), a Montana corporation, and BMB’s wholly-owned subsidiary, The State Bank of Townsend, a Montana chartered commercial bank (“SBOT”). SBOT operated four branches in Townsend, Dutton, Denton and Choteau, Montana. The transaction provided an opportunity to expand market presence and lending activities, throughout the state. On January 1, 2019, BMB merged with and into Eagle, with Eagle continuing as the surviving corporation. The total consideration paid was $16.44 million and it was primarily related to common stock issued.
 
On August 8, 2019, Eagle and OBMT, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Western Holding Company of Wolf Point (“WHC”), a Montana corporation, and WHC’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Western Bank of Wolf Point (“WB”), a Montana chartered commercial bank. The Merger Agreement provided that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, WHC would merge with and into Eagle, with Eagle continuing as the surviving corporation. The deal closed on January 1, 2020 after receipt of approvals from regulatory authorities, approval of WHC shareholders and the satisfaction of other closing conditions. In the transaction, Eagle acquired one retail bank branch in Wolf Point, Montana. The total consideration paid was $14.97 million and included cash consideration of $6.50 million and common stock issued of $8.47 million.

Financial Condition – continued
 
Lending Activities– continued
 
Total loan originations were $583.40 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Total residential 1-4 family originations were $407.48 million, which includes $387.02 million of loans held-for-sale originations. Total commercial real estate originations were $52.72 million. Total commercial originations were $103.18, which includes $45.35 of SBA PPP loans. Home equity loan originations totaled $13.75 million. Consumer loan originations totaled $6.27 million. Loans held-for-sale increased by $32.11, to $57.72 million at June 30, 2020 from $25.61 million at December 31, 2019.
 
Generally, our collection procedures provide that when a loan is 15 or more days delinquent, the borrower is sent a past due notice. If the loan becomes 30 days delinquent, the borrower is sent a written delinquency notice requiring payment. If the delinquency continues, subsequent efforts are made to contact the delinquent borrower, including face to face meetings and counseling to resolve the delinquency. All collection actions are undertaken with the objective of compliance with the Fair Debt Collection Act.
 
For mortgage loans and home equity loans, if the borrower is unable to cure the delinquency or reach a payment agreement, we will institute foreclosure actions. If a foreclosure action is taken and the loan is not reinstated, paid in full or refinanced, the property is sold at judicial sale at which we may be the buyer if there are no adequate offers to satisfy the debt. Any property acquired as the result of foreclosure, or by deed in lieu of foreclosure, is classified as real estate owned until such time as it is sold or otherwise disposed of. When real estate owned is acquired, it is recorded at its fair market value less estimated selling costs. The initial recording of any loss is charged to the allowance for loan losses. Subsequent write-downs are recorded as a charge to operations. However, in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Bank has temporarily modified these procedures by halting foreclosures in accordance with the decree of Montana’s Governor. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Bank had $57,000 and $26,000, respectively, of real estate owned and other repossessed property.
 
The State of Montana placed a freeze on foreclosures on March 28, 2020. Subsequently it released the freeze effective May 24, 2020 with the exception of continued protection for those individuals deemed vulnerable to the coronavirus. The Bank has had minimal impact due to foreclosures affected by this freeze.

Deposits increased by $146.45 million, or 18.1%, to $955.44 million at June 30, 2020 from $808.99 million at December 31, 2019. The increase was due in part to the WHC acquisition. Excluding acquired deposits, total deposits increased by $59.88 million. The increase in deposits was impacted by PPP borrowers depositing funds. Including acquired deposits, noninterest checking increased by $71.23 million, money market increased by $34.21 million, savings increased by $34.18 million and interest bearing checking increased by $30.05 million. Certificates of deposit decreased by $23.21 million. The decrease in time certificates of deposit was impacted by a decrease of $9.68 million in fixed rate brokered CDs.

FHLB advances and other borrowings increased by $2.44 million, or 2.8%, to $90.79 million at June 30, 2020 from $88.35 million at December 31, 2019. The FHLB advances and other borrowings at June 30, 2020 include $23.79 million of FRB borrowings as Eagle used the FRB's Payroll Protection Program Loan Funding ("PPPLF") facility as a partial source of funding for its SBA PPP loans. Excluding FRB borrowings, FHLB advances decreased by $21.35 million from December 31, 2019.  This decrease is due to slower than expected loan growth coupled with increased liquidity resulting from the WHC acquisition and growth in non-maturity deposits fueled by PPP funding and economic stimulus. Total other long-term debt increased by $14.73 million primarily due to the issuance of $15.00 million in subordinated notes due 2030 during the quarter ended June 30, 2020. On July 10, 2020 the Company redeemed the $10.00 million,  6.75% subordinated notes due 2025.
 
Shareholders’ Equity
 
Total shareholders’ equity increased $19.87 million, or 16.3%, to $141.53 million at June 30, 2020 from $121.66 million at December 31, 2019. This was primarily the result of stock issued in connection with the WHC acquisition of $8.47 million, net income of $9.66 million and other comprehensive income of $2.76 million. These increases were slightly offset by dividends paid of $1.30 million.

Analysis of Net Interest Income
 
The Bank’s earnings have historically depended primarily upon net interest income, which is the difference between interest income earned on loans and investments and interest paid on deposits and any borrowed funds. It is the single largest component of Eagle’s operating income. Net interest income is affected by (i) the difference between rates of interest earned on loans and investments and rates paid on interest bearing deposits and borrowings (the “interest rate spread”) and (ii) the relative amounts of loans and investments and interest bearing deposits and borrowings.
 
The following table includes average balances for balance sheet items, as well as, interest and dividends and average yields related to the average balances. All average balances are daily average balances. Non-accrual loans were included in the computation of average balances, but have been reflected in the table as loans carrying a zero yield. The yields include the effect of deferred fees and discounts and premiums that are amortized or accreted to interest income or expense.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2020 and 2019
 
Net Income. Eagle’s net income for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was $5.74 million compared to $3.25 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The increase of $2.49 million was due to an increase in noninterest income of $8.20 million, partially offset by an increase in noninterest expense of $4.66 million and an increase in provision for income taxes of $1.25 million. Basic earnings per share was $0.84 and diluted earnings per share was $0.84 for the current period. Basic and diluted earnings per share were both $0.51 for the prior year comparable period.
 
Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased to $10.42 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, from $9.69 million for the same quarter in the prior year. The increase of $729,000, or 7.5%, was the result of an increase in interest and dividend income of $495,000 and a decrease in interest expense of $234,000.
 
Interest and Dividend Income. Interest and dividend income was $12.13 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $11.64 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, an increase of $495,000, or 4.3%. Interest and fees on loans increased to $11.06 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 from $10.60 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. This increase of $461,000, or 4.3%, was due to an increase in the average balance of loans partially offset by a decrease in the average yield of loans for the quarter ended June 30, 2020. Average balances for loans receivable, including loans held-for-sale, for the three months ended June 30, 2020 were $867.37 million, compared to $754.20 million for the prior year period. This represents an increase of $113.17 million, or 15.0% and was impacted by the WHC acquisition, as well as organic growth and PPP funding. The average interest rate earned on loans receivable decreased by 53 basis points, from 5.64% to 5.11%. Interest accretion on purchased loans was $356,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2020 which resulted in a 13 basis point increase in net interest margin compared to $539,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 which resulted in a 24 basis point increase in net interest margin. Interest and dividends on investment securities available-for-sale increased by $24,000, or 2.6% period over period. Average balances for investments increased to $170.15 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, from $136.82 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in average investments is primarily due to the WHC acquisition. Average interest rates earned on investments decreased to 2.24% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 from 2.72% for the three months ended June 30, 2019.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 – continued
 
Interest Expense. Total interest expense was $1.71 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $1.94 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease of $234,000 or 12.0% was largely due to a decrease in interest expense on total borrowings. The average balance for total deposits was $931.66 million for three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $741.94 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. This increase was impacted by the WHC acquisition and also increased non-maturing deposits due to PPP funding and economic stimulus. The overall average rate on total deposits was 0.41% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to 0.50% for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The average balance for total borrowings decreased from $131.22 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 to $126.40 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The average rate paid on total borrowings also decreased from 3.12% for the three months ended June 30, 2019, to 2.43% for the three months ended June 30, 2020.
 
Loan Loss Provision . Loan loss provisions are charged to earnings to maintain the total allowance for loan losses at a level considered adequate by the Bank to provide for probable loan losses based on prior loss experience, volume and type of lending we conduct and past due loans in portfolio. The Bank’s policies require the review of assets on a quarterly basis. The Bank classifies loans if warranted. While management believes it uses the best information available to make a determination with respect to the allowance for loan losses, it recognizes that future adjustments may be necessary. Using this methodology, the Bank recorded $450,000 in loan loss provisions for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Additionally, management considered the potential impact of COVID-19. Due to the economic slowdown, an increase in the related economic factors was included in the allowance for loan losses analysis and the loan loss reserves was increased by approximately $777,000. Therefore, the total loan loss provision for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was $1.23 million. Loan loss provisions were $697,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2019. Management believes the level of total allowances is adequate to cover estimated losses inherent in the portfolio. However, if the economic forecast worsens relative to the assumptions we utilized in June, our allowance for credit losses will increase accordingly in future periods
 
Noninterest Income. Total noninterest income was $13.70 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $5.50 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The increase of $8.20 million is largely due to an increase in net gain on sale of loans which increased to $7.92 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 from $3.36 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. This increase was impacted by increased mortgage originations and higher margins on mortgage loans sold. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, $222.23 million residential mortgage loans were sold compared to $101.36 million in the same period in the prior year. In addition, gross margin on sale of mortgage loans for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was 3.56% compared to 3.32% for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in noninterest income was also impacted by mortgage banking activity of $3.36 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $722,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2019.
 
Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense was $15.13 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $10.47 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The increase of $4.66 million or 44.5% is largely due to increased salaries and employee benefits expense of $2.76 million. The increase in salaries expense is due in part to higher commission-based compensation related to mortgage loan growth and additional staff related to compliance with mortgage rules. Mortgage compensation and benefits increased $1.45 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the same period in the prior year. Salaries and employee benefits expense was also impacted by the addition of staff partly due to the WHC acquisition. Other noninterest expense includes $1.06 million of impairment of servicing rights incurred during the three months ended June 30, 2020.
To accommodate the immediate need for personnel to work from home, Eagle purchased additional laptop computers and docking stations. There were also extra supplies and equipment needed to provide each location with a clean, disinfected and safer work environment. These costs were approximately $200,000 during the quarter ended June 30, 2020.
Provision for Income Taxes . Provision for income taxes was $2.03 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $780,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 due to increased income before provision for income taxes. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was 26.1% compared to 19.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2019.

This increase of $1.84 million, or 8.9%, was due to an increase in the average balance of loans partially offset by a decrease in the average yield of loans for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Average balances for loans receivable, including loans held-for-sale, for the six months ended June 30, 2020 were $853.90 million, compared to $740.43 million for the prior year period. This represents an increase of $113.47 million, or 15.3% and was impacted by the WHC acquisition, as well as organic growth and PPP funding.

Interest accretion on purchased loans was $914,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 which resulted in a 17 basis point increase in net interest margin compared to $1.06 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 which resulted in a 24 basis point increase in net interest margin. Interest and dividends on investment securities available-for-sale increased by $93,000, or 4.9% period over period. Average balances for investments increased to $170.71 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, from $138.81 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in average investments is primarily due to the WHC acquisition. Average interest rates earned on investments decreased to 2.32% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 from 2.74% for the three months ended June 30, 2019.
Interest Expense. Total interest expense was $3.86 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $3.69 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase of $174,000 or 4.7% was due to an increase in interest expense on deposits largely offset by a decrease in interest expense on total borrowings. The average balance for total deposits was $911.04 million for six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $733.38 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. This increase was impacted by the WHC acquisition and also increased non-maturing deposits due to PPP funding and economic stimulus. The overall average rate on total deposits was 0.50% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to 0.47% for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The average balance for total borrowings decreased from $128.36 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 to $119.58 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The average rate paid on total borrowings also decreased from 3.11% for the six months ended June 30, 2019, to 2.65% for the six months ended June 30, 2020.
Loan Loss Provision . Loan loss provisions are charged to earnings to maintain the total allowance for loan losses at a level considered adequate by the Bank to provide for probable loan losses based on prior loss experience, volume and type of lending we conduct and past due loans in portfolio. The Bank’s policies require the review of assets on a quarterly basis. The Bank classifies loans if warranted. While management believes it uses the best information available to make a determination with respect to the allowance for loan losses, it recognizes that future adjustments may be necessary. Using this methodology, the Bank recorded $900,000 in loan loss provisions for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Additionally, management considered the potential impact of COVID-19. Due to the economic slowdown, an increase in the related economic factors was included in the allowance for loan losses analysis and the loan loss reserves was increased by approximately $997,000. Therefore, the total loan loss provision for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $1.90 million. Loan loss provisions were $1.30 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Management believes the level of total allowances is adequate to cover estimated losses inherent in the portfolio. However, if the economic forecast worsens relative to the assumptions we utilized in June our allowance for credit losses will increase accordingly in future periods. Total nonperforming loans, including restructured loans, net, was $8.43 million at June 30, 2020 compared to $5.45 million at December 31, 2019. The Bank had $57,000 in other real estate owned and other repossessed assets at June 30, 2020 compared to $26,000 at December 31, 2019
 
Noninterest Income. Total noninterest income was $22.00 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $9.20 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase of $12.80 million is largely due to an increase in net gain on sale of loans which increased to $13.33 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 from $5.96 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. This increase was impacted by increased mortgage originations and higher margins on mortgage loans sold. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, $354.35 million residential mortgage loans were sold compared to $173.68 million in the same period in the prior year. In addition, gross margin on sale of mortgage loans for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was 3.76% compared to 3.43% for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in noninterest income was also impacted by mortgage banking activity of $4.96 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $1.09 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019.
 
Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense was $27.98 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $21.49 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase of $6.49 million or 30.2% is largely due to increased salaries and employee benefits expense of $4.45 million. The increase in salaries expense is due in part to higher commission-based compensation related to mortgage loan growth and additional staff related to compliance with mortgage rules. Mortgage compensation and benefits increased $2.64 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the same period in the prior year. Salaries and employee benefits expense was also impacted by the addition of staff partly due to the WHC acquisition. Other noninterest expense includes $1.22 million of impairment of servicing rights incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2020.
Provision for Income Taxes . Provision for income taxes was $3.36 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $1.04 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 due to increased income before provision for income taxes. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was 25.8% compared to 19.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2019.
Liquidity and Capital Resources  
 
Liquidity
 
The Bank is required to maintain minimum levels of liquid assets as defined by the Montana Division of Banking and FRB regulations. The liquidity requirement is retained for safety and soundness purposes, and that appropriate levels of liquidity will depend upon the types of activities in which the company engages. For internal reporting purposes, the Bank uses policy minimums of 1.0%, and 8.0% for “basic surplus” and “basic surplus with FHLB” as internally defined. In general, the “basic surplus” is a calculation of the ratio of unencumbered short-term assets reduced by estimated percentages of CD maturities and other deposits that may leave the Bank in the next 90 days divided by total assets. “Basic surplus with FHLB” adds to “basic surplus” the additional borrowing capacity the Bank has with the FHLB of Des Moines. The Bank exceeded those minimum ratios as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources - continued
 
The Bank’s primary sources of funds are deposits, repayment of loans and mortgage-backed securities, maturities of investments, funds provided from operations, advances from the FHLB of Des Moines and other borrowings. Scheduled repayments of loans and mortgage-backed securities and maturities of investment securities are generally predictable. However, other sources of funds, such as deposit flows and loan prepayments, can be greatly influenced by the general level of interest rates, economic conditions and competition. The Bank uses liquidity resources principally to fund existing and future loan commitments. It also uses them to fund maturing certificates of deposit, demand deposit withdrawals and to invest in other loans and investments, maintain liquidity, and meet operating expenses.
 
Liquidity may be adversely affected by unexpected deposit outflows, higher interest rates paid by competitors, and similar matters. Management monitors projected liquidity needs and determines the level desirable based in part on Eagle’s commitments to make loans and management’s assessment of Eagle’s ability to generate funds.
 
Through the quarter ended June 30, 2020, liquidity levels remained relatively consistent with the prior quarters. Despite significant liquidity events during the quarter ended June 30, 2020, liquidity levels remained stable. Elevated cash levels from deposit growth sparked by PPP funds deposited, tax refunds, economic stimulus money and flight to quality was only partially offset by the increase in PPP loans. Subsequent to the end of the first quarter, and in coordination with the roll out of the PPP, Eagle was approved for short-term funding through the FRB Discount Window. The discount window has not been utilized; however, Eagle has utilized the FRB's PPPLF facility as a partial source for its SBA PPP loans. As of June 30, 2020, the Bank had $23.79 million in PPPLF borrowings secured by $23.79 million PPP loans at a rate of 0.35%. As the PPP loans are repaid, it is currently anticipated Eagle will repay Federal Reserve borrowings. The Company closed a $15.00 million subordinated debt offering during the quarter ended June 30, 2020, adding to borrowings. Subsequent to quarter-end, $10.00 million in callable subordinated debt was paid off, reducing overall borrowings.
 
Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2020, the Bank’s internally determined measurement of sensitivity to interest rate movements as measured by a 200 basis point rise in interest rates scenario, increased the economic value of equity (“EVE”) by 31.6% compared to an increase of 10.6% at December 31, 2019. The Bank is within the guidelines set forth by the Board of Directors for interest rate risk sensitivity in rising interest rate scenarios.
The Banks’s regulatory capital was in excess of all applicable regulatory requirements and the Bank is deemed "well capitalized" pursuant to State of Montana and FRB rules as of June 30, 2020. The Bank's Tier I leverage ratio increased slightly from 11.08% as of December 31, 2019 to 11.14% as of June 30, 2020, compared to a regulatory requirement of 4.00%. The Bank’s total capital, Tier 1 capital and common equity Tier 1 capital leverage ratios were 15.61%, 14.43% and 14.43% ,  respectively, compared to regulatory requirements of 10.50%, 8.50% and 7.00%, respectively. All of these ratios with the exception of the Tier 1 leverage ratio include the capital conservation buffer of 2.50%. The Bank’s capital position helps to mitigate its interest rate risk exposure.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices
 
Our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes, which are found in Part I, Item 1, have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without considering the change in the relative purchasing power of money over time and due to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of our operations. Interest rates have a greater impact on our performance than do the general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the prices of goods and services.
 
Interest Rate Risk
 
Interest rate risk is the potential for loss of future earnings resulting from adverse changes in the level of interest rates. Interest rate risk results from several factors and could have a significant impact on the Company’s net interest income, which is the Company primary source of net income. Net interest income is affected by changes in interest rates, the relationship between rates on interest bearing assets and liabilities, the impact of interest fluctuations on asset prepayments and the mix of interest bearing assets and liabilities.
 
Although interest rate risk is inherent in the banking industry, banks are expected to have sound risk management practices in place to measure, monitor and control interest rate exposures. The objective of interest rate risk management is to contain the risks associated with interest rate fluctuations. The process involves identification and management of the sensitivity of net interest income to changing interest rates.
 
The ongoing monitoring and management of this risk is an important component of the Company’s asset/liability committee, which is governed by policies established by the Company’s Board that are reviewed and approved annually. The Board delegates responsibility for carrying out the asset/liability management policies to the Bank’s asset/liability committee. In this capacity, the asset/liability committee develops guidelines and strategies impacting the Company’s asset/liability management related activities based upon estimated market risk sensitivity, policy limits and overall market interest rate levels and trends. The Company’s goal of its asset and liability management practices is to maintain or increase the level of net interest income within an acceptable level of interest rate risk. Our asset and liability policy and strategies are expected to continue as described so long as competitive and regulatory conditions in the financial institution industry and market interest rates continue as they have in recent years.
 
The Bank has established acceptable levels of interest rate risk as follows for an instantaneous and permanent shock in rates: Projected net interest income over the next twelve months (i.e. year-1) and the subsequent twelve months (i.e. year-2) will not be reduced by more than 15.0% given an immediate increase in interest rates of up to 200 basis points or by more than 10.0% given an immediate decrease in interest rates of up to 100 basis points.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
Item 4. Controls and Procedures  
 
As of the end of the period covered by this report, we conducted an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and our Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, including to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that as of June 30, 2020, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
 
As of December 31, 2019, we identified a material weakness in internal control related to the review of manual journal entries. Specifically, the design of the manual journal entry review control did not ensure that all manual journal entries were captured and independently reviewed, thus management could not ensure that all entries were accurate and could not verify all manual journal entries contained sufficient supporting documentation. The material weakness did not result in any identified misstatement to the financial statements, and there were no changes to previously released financial results. However, the control deficiencies created a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement to the consolidated financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. 
 
Management implemented measures designed to ensure that control deficiencies contributing to the material weakness were remediated so that these controls are designed, implemented and operating effectively. The remediation actions included: (i) restricting user access of individuals able to make manual journal entries, (ii) ensuring the completeness of manual journal entries included in the review through a review of a system generated file maintenance report over manual journal entries, (iii) ensuring accurate and appropriate documentation is retained to support the journal entry. We believe these actions remediated the material weakness. The applicable controls have operated for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively as of June 30, 2020.
 
Except as noted above, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or were reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
