NONACCRUAL AND PAST DUE LOANS Generally, recognition of interest income is discontinued where reasonable doubt exists as to the collectability of the interest. Income from nonaccrual loans is recorded when received. The difference between interest income recognized on such loans and income that would have been recognized at original contractual rates is immaterial. The bank generally places loans on a non-accrual status when a default of principal or interest has existed for 90 days or more. The bank generally does not renegotiate loans due to deterioration in the financial position of the borrower. The amounts of renegotiated loans are not considered material.
POTENTIAL LOAN PROBLEMS Management reviews the loan portfolio for potential loan problems on a monthly basis. The following loans were classified by management and include in the above nonaccrual and past due loan totals. The amount shown below is the outstanding loan balance which has not been reduced by collateral values.
LOAN CONCENTRATIONS Due to the nature of our market area, it is management's opinion there are no significant loan concentrations of 10% of total loans to borrowers engaged in similar activities other than noted in the loan categories disclosed in Footnote 4 on Page 13 of the Annual Report to Shareholders.
PAGE 8 SUMMARY OF LOAN LOSS EXPERIENCE The determination of the balance of the allowance for loan losses historically has been based on an overall analysis of the loan portfolio and reflects an amount, which, in management's judgment, is adequate to provide for potential loan losses. This analysis considers, among other things, the Company's loan loss experience, present and potential risks of the loan portfolio and general economic conditions. In addition, management considers the examinations of the loan portfolio by federal regulatory agencies and internal reviews and evaluations. The Company's allocation of the allowance for loan losses by category represents only an estimate for each category of loans based upon a detailed review of the loan portfolio by management.
Transactions in the allowance for loan losses are maintained by three major loan categories and the summary of such transactions for periods indicated follows:
