Note 20 — Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company’s derivative financial instruments consist entirely of interest rate swap agreements between the Company and its customers and other third party counterparties. The Company enters into “back to back swap” arrangements whereby the Company executes interest rate swap agreements with its customers and acquires an offsetting swap position from a third party counterparty. These derivative financial statements are accounted for at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income.

The table below presents the fair value of the Company’s derivative financial instruments as well as their classification on the Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2020. No such instruments were outstanding as of December 31, 2019.

The table below presents the effect of the Company’s derivative financial instruments that are not designated as hedging instruments on the Income Statement as of December 31, 2020. No such instruments were outstanding as of December 31, 2019.

Fee income recognized from the Company's derivative financial instruments for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 was $1.1 million.

The table below presents a gross presentation, the effects of offsetting, and a net presentation of the Company’s derivatives as of December 31, 2020. The net amounts of derivative assets or liabilities can be reconciled to the tabular disclosure of fair value. The tabular disclosure of fair value provides the location that derivative assets and liabilities are presented on the Balance Sheet.

The Company has agreements with each of its derivative counterparties that contain a provision where if the Company either defaults or is capable of being declared in default on any of its indebtedness, then the Company could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations. In addition, these agreements may also require the Company to post additional collateral should it fail to maintain its status as a well- or adequately-capitalized institution.

As of December 31, 2020, the fair value of derivatives in a net liability position, which includes accrued interest but excludes any adjustment for nonperformance risk, related to these agreements was $1.1 million. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had posted $1.2 million of collateral related to these agreements and is essentially over-collateralized since its net liability position is $61,000 ($1.1 million fair value of assets less $1.1 million fair value of liabilities) as of the end of the period. If the Company had breached any of the provisions described above at December 31, 2020, it could have been required to settle its obligations under the agreements at their termination value of $1.1 million.
