Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities
Note 5 – Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or the price paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e., the “exit price”).  CTBI uses a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in valuation techniques to measure fair value into three broad levels.  The following is a brief description of each level:

Level 1 Inputs – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 Inputs – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.  These might include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.

Level 3 Inputs – Unobservable inputs for determining the fair values of assets or liabilities that reflect an entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in determining an exit price for the assets or liabilities.

A financial instrument’s categorization within the above valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.  CTBI’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and CTBI considers factors specific to the assets or liabilities.  The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for CTBI’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
Recurring Measurements

The following tables present the fair value measurements of assets recognized in the accompanying balance sheets measured at fair value on a recurring basis and indicate the level within the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques.

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies and inputs used for assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis and recognized in the accompanying balance sheets, as well as the general classification of such assets pursuant to the valuation hierarchy.  These valuation methodologies were applied to all of CTBI’s financial assets carried at fair value.  CTBI had no liabilities measured and recorded at fair value as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.  There have been no significant changes in the valuation techniques during the quarter ended March 31, 2026 or the year ended December 31, 2025.  For assets classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, the process used to develop the reported fair value is described below.
Uncertainty of Fair Value Measurements

The following is a discussion of the uncertainty of fair value measurements, the interrelationships between those inputs and other unobservable inputs used in recurring fair value measurement, and how those inputs might magnify or mitigate the effect of changes in the unobservable inputs on the fair value measurement.

Available-for-Sale Securities

If quoted market prices are not available, the fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information, and the bond’s terms and conditions, among other factors.  U.S. Treasury and government agencies, state and political subdivisions, agency mortgage-backed securities, and asset-backed securities are classified as Level 2 inputs.

Equity Securities at Fair Value

Fair value for equity securities is derived based on unobservable inputs, such as the discount rate, quarterly dividends payable to the Visa Class B common stock, and the prevailing conversion rate at the conversion date.  The most recent conversion rate of 1.5475 and the most recent dividend rate of 1.0368 were used to derive the fair value estimate.  Significant increases (decreases) in either of those inputs in isolation would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement.  Generally, a change in the assumption used for discount rate is accompanied by a directionally opposite change in the fair value estimate.  The weighted averages presented in the tables below are determined by taking the median of the estimates in conversion dates and discount rate.

Mortgage Servicing Rights

In determining fair value, CTBI utilizes assumptions about factors such as mortgage interest rates, discount rates, mortgage loan prepayment speeds, market trends, and industry demand.  Due to the nature of the valuation inputs, mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) are classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy.  We have determined these assumptions, processes, and conclusions to be reasonable and appropriate in determining the fair value of this asset.  See the table below for inputs and valuation techniques used for Level 3 MSRs.

Fair value for MSRs is derived based on unobservable inputs, such as prepayment speeds of the underlying loans generated using the Andrew Davidson Prepayment Model, FHLMC/FNMA guidelines, the weighted average life of the loan, the discount rate, the weighted average coupon, and the weighted average default rate.  Significant increases (decreases) in either of those inputs in isolation would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement.  Generally, a change in the assumption used for prepayment speeds is accompanied by a directionally opposite change in the assumption for interest rates.
Level 3 Reconciliation

Following is a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of recurring fair value measurements, for the periods indicated, using significant unobservable (Level 3) inputs:

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies and inputs used for assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and recognized in the accompanying balance sheet.

Collateral Dependent Loans

The estimated fair value of collateral-dependent loans is based on the appraised fair value of the collateral, less estimated cost to sell.  Collateral-dependent loans are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

CTBI considers the appraisal or evaluation as the starting point for determining fair value and then considers other factors and events in the environment that may affect the fair value.  Appraisals of the collateral underlying collateral-dependent loans are obtained when the loan is determined to be collateral-dependent and subsequently as deemed necessary by the Chief Credit Officer.  The appraised values are reduced by discounts to consider lack of marketability and estimated cost to sell if repayment or satisfaction of the loan is dependent on the sale of the collateral.  These discounts and estimates are developed by the Chief Credit Officer by comparison to historical results.

Loans considered collateral-dependent are loans for which the repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty.  There was no fair value adjustment to collateral-dependent loans during the quarter ended March 31, 2026.  Fair value adjustments for the year ended December 31, 2025 were $0.4 million.

Other Real Estate Owned

Estimated fair value of other real estate owned (“OREO”) is based on appraisals or evaluations.  OREO is classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.  Long-lived assets are subject to nonrecurring fair value adjustments to reflect subsequent partial write-downs that are based on the observable market price or current appraised value of the collateral.  There were no fair value adjustments to OREO disclosed above for the quarter ended March 31, 2026.  Fair value adjustments to OREO disclosed above for the year ended December 31, 2025 were $38 thousand.

Our policy for determining the frequency of periodic reviews is based upon consideration of the specific properties and the known or perceived market fluctuations in a particular market and is typically between 12 and 18 months but generally not more than 24 months.  Appraisers are selected from the list of approved appraisers maintained by management.
Unobservable (Level 3) Inputs

Unobservable inputs for mortgage servicing rights were weighted by loan amount.  Unobservable inputs for equity securities were weighted by security value.  Unobservable inputs for OREO were weighted by estimated cost to sell.  There were no transfers in or out of Level 3 during the quarter ended March 31, 2026.  The following tables present quantitative information about unobservable inputs used in recurring and nonrecurring Level 3 fair value measurements for the periods indicated.
