Note 1.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Nature of Business:
 
SmartFinancial, Inc. (the "Company") is a bank holding company whose principal activity is the ownership and management of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Cornerstone Community Bank and SmartBank (the "Banks"). The Company provides a variety of financial services to individuals and corporate customers through its offices in eastern Tennessee, northeast Florida, and north Georgia. The Company's primary deposit products are interest-bearing demand deposits and certificates of deposit. Its primary lending products are commercial, residential, and consumer loans.
 
Basis of Presentation and Accounting Estimates:
 
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
In preparing the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet, and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of foreclosed assets and deferred taxes, other-than-temporary impairments of securities, and the fair value of financial instruments.
 
The determination of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is based on estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant changes in the economic environment and market conditions. In connection with the determination of the estimated losses on loans, management obtains independent appraisals for significant collateral.
 
The Company's loans are generally secured by specific items of collateral including real property, consumer assets, and business assets. Although the Company has a diversified loan portfolio, a substantial portion of its debtors' ability to honor their contracts is dependent on local economic conditions.
 
While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, further reductions in the carrying amounts of loans may be necessary based on changes in local economic conditions. In addition, regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the estimated losses on loans. Such agencies may require the Company to recognize additional losses based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination. Because of these factors, it is reasonably possible that the estimated losses on loans may change materially in the near term. However, the amount of the change that is reasonably possible cannot be estimated.
 
The Company has evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition and/or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in this Annual Report.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents:
 
For purposes of reporting consolidated cash flows, cash and due from banks includes cash on hand, cash items in process of collection and amounts due from banks. Cash and cash equivalents also includes interest-bearing deposits in banks and federal funds sold. Cash flows from loans, federal funds sold, securities sold under agreements to repurchase and deposits are reported net.
 
The Bank is required to maintain average balances in cash or on deposit with the Federal Reserve Bank. The reserve requirement was $1,031 and $3,089 at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
 
The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with other financial institutions and limits the amount of credit exposure to any one financial institution. From time to time, the balances at these financial institutions exceed the amount insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Company has not experienced any losses on these accounts and management considers this to be a normal business risk.
 
Securities:
 
Management has classified all securities as available for sale. Securities available for sale are recorded at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported in other comprehensive income. Purchase premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the terms of the securities. Gains and losses on the sale of securities are recorded on the trade date and are determined using the specific identification method.
 
The Company evaluates investment securities for other-than-temporary impairment using relevant accounting guidance specifying that (a) if the Company does not have the intent to sell a debt security prior to recovery and (b) it is more likely than not that it will not have to sell the debt security prior to recovery, the security would not be considered other-than-temporarily impaired unless a credit loss has occurred in the security. If management does not intend to sell the security and it is more likely than not that they will not have to sell the security before recovery of the cost basis, management will recognize the credit component of an other-than- temporary impairment of a debt security in earnings and the remaining portion in other comprehensive income.
 
Securities borrowed or purchased under agreements to resell and securities loaned or sold under agreements to repurchase are treated as collateralized financial transactions. These agreements are recorded at the amount at which the securities were acquired or sold plus accrued interest. It is the Company's policy to take possession of securities purchased under resale agreements. The market value of these securities is monitored, and additional securities are obtained when deemed appropriate to ensure such transactions are adequately collateralized. The Company also monitors its exposure with respect to securities sold under repurchase agreements, and a request for the return of excess securities held by the counterparty is made when deemed appropriate.
 
Restricted - Investments:
 
The Company is required to maintain an investment in capital stock of various entities. Based on redemption provisions of these entities, the stock has no quoted market value and is carried at cost. At their discretion, these entities may declare dividends on the stock. Management reviews for impairment based on the ultimate recoverability of the cost basis in these stocks.
 
Loans:
 
Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or pay-off are reported at their outstanding principal balances less deferred fees and costs on originated loans and the allowance for loan losses. Interest income is accrued on the outstanding principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs of consumer and installment loans are recognized at the time the loan is placed on the books. Loan origination fees for all other loans are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the yield over the life of the loan using the straight-line method without anticipating prepayments.
 
The accrual of interest on loans is discontinued when, in management's opinion, the borrower may be unable to meet payments as they become due, or at the time the loan is 90 days past due, unless the loan is well-secured and in the process of collection. Unsecured loans are typically charged off no later than 120 days past due. Past due status is based on contractual terms of the loan. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual or charged-off at an earlier date if collection of principal and interest is considered doubtful. All interest accrued but not collected for loans that are placed on nonaccrual or charged off is reversed against interest income or charged to the allowance, unless management believes that the accrual of interest is recoverable through the liquidation of collateral. Interest income on nonaccrual loans is recognized on the cash basis, until the loans are returned to accrual status. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and the loan has been performing according to the contractual terms for a period of not less than six months.
 
Acquired Loans:
 
Acquired loans are those that were acquired when SmartBank assumed all the deposits and certain assets of the former Gulf South Private Bank (“Gulf South transaction”) on October 19, 2012 and the former Cornerstone Bancshares, Inc. (“Cornerstone”) on August 31, 2015. The fair values of acquired loans with evidence of credit deterioration, purchased credit impaired loans (“PCI loans”), are recorded net of a nonaccretable discount and accretable discount. Any excess of cash flows expected at acquisition over the estimated fair value is referred to as the accretable discount and is recognized in interest income over the remaining life of the loan when there is reasonable expectation about the amount and timing of such cash flows. The difference between contractually required payments at acquisition and the cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition is the nonaccretable discount, which is included in the carrying amount of acquired loans. Subsequent decreases to the expected cash flows will generally result in a provision for loan losses. Subsequent increases in cash flows result in a reversal of the provision for loan losses to the extent of prior charges or a reclassification of the difference from nonaccretable to accretable with a positive impact on the accretable discount. Acquired loans are initially recorded at fair value at acquisition date. Accretable discounts related to certain fair value adjustments are accreted into income over the estimated lives of the loans.
 
The Company accounts for performing loans acquired in the acquisition using the expected cash flows method of recognizing discount accretion based on the acquired loans' expected cash flows. Management recasts the estimate of cash flows expected to be collected on each acquired impaired loan pool periodically. If the present value of expected cash flows for a pool is less than its carrying value, an impairment is recognized by an increase in the allowance for loan losses and a charge to the provision for loan losses. If the present value of expected cash flows for a pool is greater than its carrying value, any previously established allowance for loan losses is reversed and any remaining difference increases the accretable yield which will be taken into interest income over the remaining life of the loan pool. Acquired impaired loans are generally not subject to individual evaluation for impairment and are not reported with impaired loans, even if they would otherwise qualify for such treatment. Purchased performing loans are recorded at fair value, including a credit discount. Credit losses on acquired performing loans are estimated based on analysis of the performing portfolio. Such estimated credit losses are recorded as nonaccretable discounts in a manner similar to purchased impaired loans. The fair value discount other than for credit loss is accreted as an adjustment to yield over the estimated lives of the loans. A provision for loan losses is recorded for any deterioration in these loans subsequent to the acquisition.
 
Allowance for Loan Losses:
 
The allowance for loan losses is established as losses are estimated to have occurred through a provision for loan losses charged to expense. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Confirmed losses are charged off immediately. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.
 
The allowance is an amount that management believes will be adequate to absorb estimated losses relating to specifically identified loans, as well as probable credit losses inherent in the balance of the loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a regular basis by management and is based upon management's periodic review of the uncollectibility of loans in light of historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality, review of specific problem loans, current economic conditions that may affect the borrower's ability to pay, estimated value of any underlying collateral and prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. This evaluation does not include the effects of expected losses on specific loans or groups of loans that are related to future events or expected changes in economic conditions. While management uses the best information available to make its evaluation, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if there are significant changes in economic conditions. In addition, regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company's allowance for loan losses, and may require the Company to make additions to the allowance based on their judgment about information available to them at the time of their examinations.
 
The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are classified as impaired. For impaired loans, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows, collateral value, or observable market price of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan. The general component covers non-impaired loans and is based on a weighted average derived from the Company's historical loss experience adjusted for other qualitative factors. Other adjustments may be made to the allowance for pools of loans after an assessment of internal or external influences on credit quality that are not fully reflected in the historical loss or risk rating data.
 
An unallocated component may be maintained to cover uncertainties that could affect management's estimate of probable losses. The unallocated component of the allowance reflects the margin of imprecision inherent in the underlying assumptions used in the methodologies for estimating specific and general losses in the portfolio. As part of the risk management program, an independent review is performed on the loan portfolio, which supplements management’s assessment of the loan portfolio and the allowance for loan losses. The result of the independent review is reported directly to the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. Loans, for which the terms have been modified at the borrower's request, and for which the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties, are considered troubled debt restructurings and classified as impaired.
 
A loan is considered impaired when it is probable, based on current information and events, the Company will be unable to collect all principal and interest payments due in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls are not classified as impaired. Impaired loans are measured by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, the loan's obtainable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. Interest on accruing impaired loans is recognized as long as such loans do not meet the criteria for nonaccrual status. Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment.
 
The Company's homogeneous loan pools include consumer real estate loans, commercial real estate loans, construction and land development loans, commercial and industrial loans, and consumer and other loans. The general allocations to these loan pools are based on the historical loss rates for specific loan types and the internal risk grade, if applicable, adjusted for both internal and external qualitative risk factors. The qualitative factors considered by management include, among other factors, (1) changes in local and national economic conditions; (2) changes in asset quality; (3) changes in loan portfolio volume; (4) the composition and concentrations of credit; (5) the impact of competition on loan structuring and pricing; (6) the impact of interest rate changes on portfolio risk and (7) effectiveness of the Company's loan policies, procedures and internal controls. The total allowance established for each homogeneous loan pool represents the product of the historical loss ratio adjusted for qualitative factors and the total dollar amount of the loans in the pool.
 
Troubled Debt Restructurings:
 
The Company designates loan modifications as troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs") when for economic and legal reasons related to the borrower's financial difficulties, it grants a concession to the borrower that it would not otherwise consider. TDRs can involve loans remaining on nonaccrual, moving to nonaccrual, or continuing on accrual status, depending on the individual facts and circumstances of the borrower. In circumstances where the TDR involves charging off a portion of the loan balance, the Company typically classifies these restructurings as nonaccrual. 
 
In connection with restructurings, the decision to maintain a loan that has been restructured on accrual status is based on a current, well documented credit evaluation of the borrower's financial condition and prospects for repayment under the modified terms. This evaluation includes consideration of the borrower's current capacity to pay, which among other things may include a review of the borrower's current financial statements, an analysis of global cash flow sufficient to pay all debt obligations, a debt to income analysis, and an evaluation of secondary sources of payment from the borrower and any guarantors. This evaluation also includes an evaluation of the borrower's current willingness to pay, which may include a review of past payment history, an evaluation of the borrower's willingness to provide information on a timely basis, and consideration of offers from the borrower to provide additional collateral or guarantor support. The credit evaluation also reflects consideration of the borrower's future capacity and willingness to pay, which may include evaluation of cash flow projections, consideration of the adequacy of collateral to cover all principal and interest, and trends indicating improving profitability and collectability of receivables.
 
Restructured nonaccrual loans may be returned to accrual status based on a current, well-documented credit evaluation of the borrower's financial condition and prospects for repayment under the modified terms. This evaluation must include consideration of the borrower's sustained historical repayment for a reasonable period, generally a minimum of six months, prior to the date on which the loan is returned to accrual status.
 
Foreclosed Assets:
 
Foreclosed assets acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are held for sale and are initially recorded at fair value less selling costs. Any write-down to fair value at the time of transfer to foreclosed assets is charged to the allowance for loan losses. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management and the assets are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Costs of improvements are capitalized, whereas costs relating to holding foreclosed assets and subsequent write-downs to the value are expensed. The amount of residential real estate where physical possession had been obtained included within foreclosed assets at December 31, 2015 and 2014 was $227,000 and $3,293,000, respectively. The amount of residential real estate in process of foreclosure at December 31, 2015 was $61,000. There was no residential real estate in process of foreclosure at December 31, 2014.
 
Premises and Equipment:
 
Land is carried at cost. Premises and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets or the expected terms of the leases, if shorter. Expected terms include lease option periods to the extent that the exercise of such options is reasonably assured. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred while major additions and improvements are capitalized. Gains and losses on dispositions are included in current operations.
 
Buildings and leasehold improvements
15 - 40 years
Furniture and equipment
3-7 years
 
Goodwill and Intangible Assets:
 
Goodwill represents the cost in excess of the fair value of net assets acquired (including identifiable intangibles) in transactions accounted for as business combinations. Goodwill has an indefinite useful life and is evaluated for impairment annually, or more frequently if events and circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. An impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying amount exceeds the acquired asset’s fair value. The goodwill impairment analysis is a two-step test. The first, used to identify potential impairment, involves comparing each reporting unit’s estimated fair value to its carrying value, including goodwill. If the estimated fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, goodwill is considered not to be impaired. If the carrying value exceeds estimated fair value, there is an indication of potential impairment and the second step is performed to measure the amount of impairment. The Company performs its annual goodwill impairment test as of December 31 of each year. For 2015, the results of the first step of the goodwill impairment test provided no indication of potential impairment. Goodwill will continue to be monitored for triggering events that may indicate impairment prior to the next scheduled annual impairment test.
 
Intangible assets consist of core deposit premiums acquired in connection with the Gulf South and Cornerstone transactions. The core deposit premium is initially recognized based on a valuation performed as of the consummation date. The core deposit premium is amortized over the average remaining life of the acquired customer deposits. Amortization expense relating to these intangible assets was $233,204 and $163,100 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The intangible assets were evaluated for impairment as of December 31, 2015, and based on that evaluation it was determined that there was no impairment.
 
Transfer of Financial Assets:
 
Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales, when control over the assets has been surrendered. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when (1) the assets have been isolated from the Company - put presumptively beyond the reach of the transferor and its creditors, even in bankruptcy or other receivership, (2) the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets, and (3) the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity or the ability to unilaterally cause the holder to return specific assets.
 
Advertising Costs:
 
The Company expenses all advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense was $452,849 and $420,048 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
 
Income Taxes:
 
The income tax accounting guidance results in two components of income tax expense: current and deferred. Current income tax expense reflects taxes to be paid or refunded for the current period by applying the provisions of the enacted tax law to the taxable income or excess of deductions over revenues. The Company determines deferred income taxes using the liability (or balance sheet) method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is based on the tax effects of the differences between the book and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and enacted changes in tax rates and laws are recognized in the period in which they occur.
 
Deferred income tax expense results from changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities between periods. Deferred tax assets are recognized if it is more likely than not, based on the technical merits, that the tax position will be realized or sustained upon examination. The term more likely than not means a likelihood of more than 50 percent; the terms examined and upon examination also include resolution of the related appeals or litigation processes, if any. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is initially and subsequently measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. The determination of whether or not a tax position has met the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold considers the facts, circumstances, and information available at the reporting date and is subject to management's judgment. Deferred tax assets may be reduced by deferred tax liabilities and a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of evidence available, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized.
 
Stock Compensation Plans:
 
At December 31, 2015, the Company had options outstanding under stock-based compensation plans, which are described in more detail in Note 10. The plans have been accounted for under the accounting guidance (FASB ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation) which requires that the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial statements. That cost will be measured based on the grant date fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. The stock compensation accounting guidance covers a wide range of share-based compensation arrangements including stock options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights, and stock or other stock based awards.
 
The stock compensation accounting guidance requires that compensation cost for all stock awards be calculated and recognized over the employees' service period, generally defined as the vesting period. For awards with graded-vesting, compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award. A Black-Scholes model is used to estimate the fair value of stock options, while the market value of the Company's common stock at the date of grant is used for restrictive stock awards and stock grants.
 
Employee Benefit Plan:
 
Employee benefit plan costs are based on the percentage of individual employee's salary, not to exceed the amount that can be deducted for federal income tax purposes.
 
Variable interest entities:
 
An entity is referred to as a variable interest entity (VIE) if it meets the criteria outlined in ASC Topic 810, which are: (1) the entity has equity that is insufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties or (2) the entity has equity investors that cannot make significant decisions about the entity's operations or that do not absorb the expected losses or receive the expected returns of the entity. A VIE must be consolidated by the Company if it is deemed to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE, which is the party involved with the VIE that has a majority of the expected losses, expected residual returns, or both. At December 31, 2015, the Company had an investment in Community Advantage Fund, LLC that qualified as an unconsolidated VIE.
 
The Company’s investment in a partnership consists of an equity interest in a lending partnership for the purposes of loaning funds to an unrelated entity. This entity will use the funds to make loans through the SBA Community Advantage loan Initiative. 
 
The Company uses the equity method when it owns an interest in a partnership and can exert significant influence over the partnership’s operations. Under the equity method, the Company’s ownership interest in the partnership’s capital is reported as an investment on its consolidated balance sheets in other assets and the Company’s allocable share of the income or loss from the partnership is reported in noninterest income or expense in the consolidated statements of income. The Company ceases recording losses on an investment in partnership when the cumulative losses and distributions from the partnership exceed the carrying amount of the investment and any advances made by the Company. After the Company’s investment in such partnership reaches zero, cash distributions received from these investments are recorded as income.
 
Comprehensive Income:
 
Accounting principles generally require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income. Although certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities, are reported as a separate component of the equity section of the balance sheet, such items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments:
 
Fair values of financial instruments are estimates using relevant market information and other assumptions, as more fully disclosed in Note 15. Fair value estimates involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment. Changes in assumptions or in market conditions could significantly affect the estimates.
 
Business Combinations:
 
Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. Under the acquisition method of accounting, acquired assets and assumed liabilities are included with the acquirer's accounts as of the date of acquisition at estimated fair value, with any excess of purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired (including identifiable intangible assets) capitalized as goodwill. In the event that the fair value of the net assets acquired exceeds the purchase price, an acquisition gain is recorded for the difference in consolidated statements of income for the period in which the acquisition occurred. An intangible asset is recognized as an asset apart from goodwill when it arises from contractual or other legal rights or if it is capable of being separated or divided from the acquired entity and sold, transferred, licensed, rented or exchanged. In addition, acquisition-related costs and restructuring costs are recognized as period expenses as incurred. Estimates of fair value are subject to refinement for a period of not to exceed one year from acquisition date as information relative to acquisition date fair values becomes available.
 
Earnings per common share:
 
Basic earnings per common share represents income available to common stockholders divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share reflects additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued, as well as any adjustment to income that would result from the assumed issuance. Potential common shares that may be issued by the Company relate solely to outstanding stock options and are determined using the treasury stock method
 
Segment reporting:
 
ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting,” provides for the identification of reportable segments on the basis of distinct business units and their financial information to the extent such units are reviewed by an entity’s chief decision maker (which can be an individual or group of management persons). ASC Topic 280 permits aggregation or combination of segments that have similar characteristics. In the Company’s operations, each bank branch is viewed by management as being a separately identifiable business or segment from the perspective of monitoring performance and allocation of financial resources. Although the branches operate independently and are managed and monitored separately, each is substantially similar in terms of business focus, type of customers, products, and services. Accordingly, the Company’s consolidated financial statements reflect the presentation of segment information on an aggregated basis in one reportable segment.
 
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements:
 
The following is a summary of recent authoritative pronouncements that could impact the accounting, reporting, and/or disclosure of financial information by the Company.
 
In January 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) amended the Receivables topic of the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) in ASU 2014-04, Receivables—Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40): Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure. The amendments are intended to resolve diversity in practice with respect to when a creditor should reclassify a collateralized consumer mortgage loan to foreclosed assets In addition, the amendments require a creditor to reclassify a collateralized consumer mortgage loan to foreclosed assets upon obtaining legal title to the real estate collateral, or the borrower voluntarily conveying all interest in the real estate property to the lender to satisfy the loan through a deed in lieu of foreclosure or similar legal agreement. The amendments will be effective for the Company for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015, with early implementation of the guidance permitted. In implementing this guidance, assets that are reclassified from foreclosed assets to loans are measured at the carrying value of the real estate at the date of adoption. Assets reclassified from loans to foreclosed assets are measured at the lower of the net amount of the loan receivable or the fair value of the foreclosed assets less costs to sell at the date of adoption. The Company will apply the amendments. The Company does not expect these amendments to have a material effect on its financial statements.
 
In May 2014, the FASB issued guidance to change the recognition of revenue from contracts with customers in ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The core principle of the new guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to reflect the transfer of goods and services to customers in an amount equal to the consideration the entity receives or expects to receive. The guidance will be effective for the Company for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company will apply the guidance using a full retrospective approach. The Company does not expect these amendments to have a material effect on its financial statements.
 
In June 2014, the FASB issued guidance which makes limited amendments to the guidance on accounting for certain repurchase agreements in ASU 2014-11, Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860). The new guidance requires entities to (1) account for repurchase-to-maturity transactions as secured borrowings (rather than as sales with forward repurchase agreements), (2) eliminates accounting guidance on linked repurchase financing transactions, and (3) expands disclosure requirements related to certain transfers of financial assets that are accounted for as sales and certain transfers (specifically, repos, securities lending transactions, and repurchase-to-maturity transactions) accounted for as secured borrowings. The amendments will be effective for the Company for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company will apply the guidance by making a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The Company does not expect these amendments to have a material effect on its financial statements.
 
In August 2014, the FASB issued guidance that is intended to define management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures in ASU No. 2014-14, Receivables - Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40): Classification of Certain Government-Guaranteed Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure. In connection with preparing financial statements, management will need to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. The amendments will be effective for the Company for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. The Company does not expect these amendments to have any effect on its financial statements.
 
In January 2015, the FASB issued guidance that eliminated the concept of extraordinary items from U.S. GAAP in ASU No. 2015-01 - Income Statement-Extraordinary and Unusual Items (Subtopic 225-20). Existing U.S. GAAP required that an entity separately classify, present, and disclose extraordinary events and transactions. The amendments will eliminate the requirements for reporting entities to consider whether an underlying event or transaction is extraordinary, however, the presentation and disclosure guidance for items that are unusual in nature or occur infrequently will be retained and will be expanded to include items that are both unusual in nature and infrequently occurring. The amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. The amendments may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Early adoption is permitted provided that the guidance is applied from the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. The Company does not expect these amendments to have any effect on its financial statements
 
In September 2015, the FASB issued guidance that simplifies the accounting for adjustments made to provisional amounts recognized in a business combination by eliminating the requirement to retrospectively account for those adjustments in ASU 2015-16: Business Combinations (Topic 805): Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement Period Adjustments. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company does not expect this guidance to have a material effect on its financial statements.
 
In January 2016, the FASB issued guidance that primarily affects the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option, and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments in ASU No. 2016-01 -Financial Instruments-Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. In addition, the FASB clarified guidance related to the valuation allowance assessment when recognizing deferred tax assets resulting from unrealized losses on available-for-sale debt securities. The guidance will be effective in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is evaluating the impact of this update on its financial statements.
 
In February 2016, the FASB issued guidance that requires lessees to recognize almost all leases on their balance sheet as a right-of-use asset and a lease liability in ASU 2016-02: Leases (Topic 842). For income statement purposes, the FASB retained a dual model, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance. Classification will be based on criteria that are largely similar to those applied in current lease accounting, but without explicit bright lines. Lessor accounting is similar to the current model, but updated to align with certain changes to the lessee model and the new revenue recognition standard. Existing sale-leaseback guidance, including guidance for real estate, is replaced with a new model applicable to both lessees and lessors. The new guidance will be effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is evaluating the impact of this update on its financial statements.

Business Combination
 
On June 18, 2015, the shareholders of the SmartFinancial, Inc (“Legacy SmartFinancial”) approved a merger with Cornerstone Bancshares, Inc. ticker symbol CSBQ, the one bank holding company of Cornerstone Community Bank, which became effective August 31, 2015 at which time Cornerstone Bancshares changed its name to SmartFinancial Legacy SmartFinancial shareholders received 1.05 shares of Cornerstone common stock in exchange for each share of Legacy SmartFinancial common stock. After the merger, shareholders of Legacy SmartFinancial owned  approximately 56% of the outstanding common stock of the combined entity on a fully diluted basis, after taking into account the exchange ratio and new shares issued as part of a capital raise through a private placement. 
 
While Cornerstone was the acquiring entity for legal purposes, the merger is being accounted for as a reverse merger using the acquisition method of accounting, in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 805-10 Business Combinations. Under this guidance, for accounting purposes, Legacy SmartFinancial is considered the acquirer in the merger, and as a result the historical financial statements of the combined entity will be the historical financial statements of Legacy SmartFinancial.
 
The merger was effected by the issuance of shares of Cornerstone stock to shareholders of Legacy SmartFinancial. The assets and liabilities of Cornerstone as of the effective date of the merger were recorded at their respective estimated fair values and combined with those of Legacy SmartFinancial. The excess of the purchase price over the net estimated fair values of the acquired assets and liabilities was allocated to identifiable intangible assets with the remaining excess allocated to goodwill. Goodwill from the transaction was $4.2 million, none of which is deductible for income tax purposes.
 
In periods following the merger, the financial statements of the combined entity will include the results attributable to Cornerstone Community Bank beginning on the date the merger was completed. In the period ended December 31, 2015 the revenues and net income attributable to Cornerstone Community bank were $7.0 million and $1.6 million, respectively. The pro-forma impact to 2014 revenues and net income if the merger had occurred on December 31, 2013 would have been $19.6 million and $67 thousand, respectively.
 
The following table details the preliminary estimated financial impact of the merger, including the calculation of the purchase price, the allocation of the purchase price to the fair values of net assets assumed, and goodwill recognized:

At December 31, 2015, the categories of temporarily impaired securities, and management’s evaluation of those securities, are as follows:
 
U.S. Government-sponsored enterprises: At December 31, 2015, five investments in U.S. GSE securities had unrealized losses. These unrealized losses related principally to changes in market interest rates. The contractual terms of the investments does not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized cost bases of the investments. Because the Banks do not intend to sell the investments and it is more likely than not that the Banks will not be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity, the Banks do not consider these investments to be other-than temporarily impaired at December 31, 2015.
 
Municipal securities: At December 31, 2015, seven investments in obligations of municipal securities had unrealized losses. The Banks believes the unrealized losses on those investments were caused by the interest rate environment and do not relate to the underlying credit quality of the issuers. Because the Banks do not intend to sell the investments and it is not more likely than not that the Banks will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity, the Banks do not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2015.
 
Mortgage-backed securities: At December 31, 2015, fifty-four investments in residential mortgage-backed securities had unrealized losses.  This impairment is believed to be caused by the current interest rate environment. The contractual cash flows of those investments are guaranteed by an agency of the U.S. Government. Because the decline in market value is attributable to the current interest rate environment and not credit quality, and because the Banks do not intend to sell the investments and it is not more likely than not that the Banks will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity, the Banks do not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2015.

For purposes of the disclosures required pursuant to the adoption of ASC 310, the loan portfolio was disaggregated into segments. A portfolio segment is defined as the level at which an entity develops and documents a systematic method for determining its allowance for credit losses. There are five loan portfolio segments that include commercial real estate, consumer real estate, construction and land development, commercial and industrial, and consumer and other.
 
The following describe risk characteristics relevant to each of the portfolio segments:
 
Commercial Real Estate: Commercial real estate loans include owner-occupied commercial real estate loans and loans secured by income-producing properties. Owner-occupied commercial real estate loans to operating businesses are long-term financing of land and buildings. These loans are repaid by cash flow generated from the business operation. Real estate loans for income-producing properties such as apartment buildings, office and industrial buildings, and retail shopping centers are repaid from rent income derived from the properties. Loans within this portfolio segment are particularly sensitive to the valuation of real estate.
 
Consumer Real Estate: Consumer real estate loans include real estate loans secured by first liens, second liens, or open end real estate loans, such as home equity lines. These are repaid by various means such as a borrower's income, sale of the property, or rental income derived from the property. One to four family first mortgage loans are repaid by various means such as a borrower's income, sale of the property, or rental income derived from the property. Loans within this portfolio segment are particularly sensitive to the valuation of real estate.
 
Construction and Land Development: Loans for real estate construction and development are repaid through cash flow related to the operations, sale or refinance of the underlying property. This portfolio segment includes extensions of credit to real estate developers or investors where repayment is dependent on the sale of the real estate or income generated from the real estate collateral. Loans within this portfolio segment are particularly sensitive to the valuation of real estate.
 
Commercial and Industrial: The commercial and industrial loan portfolio segment includes commercial, financial, and agricultural loans. These loans include those loans to commercial customers for use in normal business operations to finance working capital needs, equipment purchases, or expansion projects. Loans are repaid by business cash flows. Collection risk in this portfolio is driven by the creditworthiness of the underlying borrower, particularly cash flows from the customers' business operations.
 
Consumer and Other: The consumer loan portfolio segment includes direct consumer installment loans, overdrafts and other revolving credit loans, and educational loans. Loans in this portfolio are sensitive to unemployment and other key consumer economic measures.
 
Credit Risk Management:
 
The Company employs a credit risk management process with defined policies, accountability and routine reporting to manage credit risk in the loan portfolio segments. Credit risk management is guided by credit policies that provide for a consistent and prudent approach to underwriting and approvals of credits. Within the Credit Policy, procedures exist that elevate the approval requirements as credits become larger and more complex. All loans are individually underwritten, risk-rated, approved, and monitored.
 
Responsibility and accountability for adherence to underwriting policies and accurate risk ratings lies in each portfolio segment. For the consumer real estate and consumer and other portfolio segments, the risk management process focuses on managing customers who become delinquent in their payments. For the other portfolio segments, the risk management process focuses on underwriting new business and, on an ongoing basis, monitoring the credit of the portfolios, including a third party review of the largest credits on an annual basis or more frequently as needed. To ensure problem credits are identified on a timely basis, several specific portfolio reviews occur periodically to assess the larger adversely rated credits for proper risk rating and accrual status.
 
Credit quality and trends in the loan portfolio segments are measured and monitored regularly. Detailed reports, by product, collateral, accrual status, etc., are reviewed by the Senior Credit Officer and the Directors Loan Committee.
 
The allowance for loan losses is a valuation reserve allowance established through provisions for loan losses charged against income. The allowance for loan losses, which is evaluated quarterly, is maintained at a level that management deems sufficient to absorb probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Loans deemed to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance for loan losses, while recoveries of previously charged-off amounts are credited to the allowance for loan losses. The allowance for loan losses is comprised of specific valuation allowances for loans evaluated individually for impairment and general allocations for pools of homogeneous loans with similar risk characteristics and trends.
 
The allowance for loan losses related to specific loans is based on management's estimate of potential losses on impaired loans as determined by (1) the present value of expected future cash flows; (2) the fair value of collateral if the loan is determined to be collateral dependent or (3) the loan's observable market price. The Company's homogeneous loan pools include commercial real estate loans, consumer real estate loans, construction and land development loans, commercial and industrial loans, and consumer and other loans. The general allocations to these loan pools are based on the historical loss rates for specific loan types and the internal risk grade, if applicable, adjusted for both internal and external qualitative risk factors.
 
The qualitative factors considered by management include, among other factors, (1) changes in local and national economic conditions; (2) changes in asset quality; (3) changes in loan portfolio volume; (4) the composition and concentrations of credit; (5) the impact of competition on loan structuring and pricing; (6) the impact of interest rate changes on portfolio risk and (7) effectiveness of the Company's loan policies, procedures and internal controls. The total allowance established for each homogeneous loan pool represents the product of the historical loss ratio adjusted for qualitative factors and the total dollar amount of the loans in the pool.

A description of the general characteristics of the risk grades used by the Company is as follows:
 
Pass: Loans in this risk category involve borrowers of acceptable-to-strong credit quality and risk who have the apparent ability to satisfy their loan obligations. Loans in this risk grade would possess sufficient mitigating factors, such as adequate collateral or strong guarantors possessing the capacity to repay the debt if required, for any weakness that may exist.
 
Watch: Loans in this risk category involve borrowers that exhibit characteristics, or are operating under conditions that, if not successfully mitigated as planned, have a reasonable risk of resulting in a downgrade within the next six to twelve months. Loans may remain in this risk category for six months and then are either upgraded or downgraded upon subsequent evaluation.
 
Special Mention: Loans in this risk grade are the equivalent of the regulatory definition of "Other Assets Especially Mentioned" classification. Loans in this category possess some credit deficiency or potential weakness, which requires a high level of management attention. Potential weaknesses include declining trends in operating earnings and cash flows and /or reliance on the secondary source of repayment. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in noticeable deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in the Company's credit position.
 
Substandard: Loans in this risk grade are inadequately protected by the borrower's current financial condition and payment capability or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the orderly repayment of debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
 
Doubtful: Loans in this risk grade have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or orderly repayment in full, on the basis of current existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. Possibility of loss is extremely high, but because of certain important and reasonably specific factors that may work to the advantage and strengthening of the exposure, its classification as an estimated loss is deferred until its more exact status may be determined.
 
Uncollectible: Loans in this risk grade are considered to be non-collectible and of such little value that their continuance as bankable assets is not warranted. This does not mean the loan has absolutely no recovery value, but rather it is neither practical nor desirable to defer writing off the loan, even though partial recovery may be obtained in the future. Charge-offs against the allowance for loan losses are taken in the period in which the loan becomes uncollectible. Consequently, the Company typically does not maintain a recorded investment in loans within this category.
 
The following tables outline the amount of each loan classification and the amount categorized into each risk rating as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 (amounts in thousands):

Past Due Loans:
 
A loan is considered past due if any required principal and interest payments have not been received as of the date such payments were required to be made under the terms of the loan agreement. Generally, management places a loan on nonaccrual when there is a clear indication that the borrower’s cash flow may not be sufficient to meet payments as they become due, which is generally when a loan is 90 days past due.

Troubled Debt Restructurings:
 
At December 31, 2015 and 2014, impaired loans included loans that were classified as Troubled Debt Restructurings ("TDRs"). The restructuring of a loan is considered a TDR if both (i) the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties and (ii) the creditor has granted a concession.
 
In assessing whether or not a borrower is experiencing financial difficulties, the Company considers information currently available regarding the financial condition of the borrower. This information includes, but is not limited to, whether (i) the debtor is currently in payment default on any of its debt; (ii) a payment default is probable in the foreseeable future without the modification; (iii) the debtor has declared or is in the process of declaring bankruptcy; and (iv) the debtor's projected cash flow is sufficient to satisfy contractual payments due under the original terms of the loan without a modification.
 
The Company considers all aspects of the modification to loan terms to determine whether or not a concession has been granted to the borrower. Key factors considered by the Company include the debtor's ability to access funds at a market rate for debt with similar risk characteristics, the significance of the modification relative to unpaid principal balance or collateral value of the debt, and the significance of a delay in the timing of payments relative to the original contractual terms of the loan.
 
The most common concessions granted by the Company generally include one or more modifications to the terms of the debt, such as (i) a reduction in the interest rate for the remaining life of the debt; (ii) an extension of the maturity date at an interest rate lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk; (iii) a temporary period of interest-only payments; and (iv) a reduction in the contractual payment amount for either a short period or remaining term of the loan. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, management had approximately, $4,990,000 and $5,563,000, respectively, in loans that met the criteria for restructured, which included approximately $1,297,000 and $3,626,000, respectively, of loans on nonaccrual. A loan is placed back on accrual status when both principal and interest are current and it is probable that management will be able to collect all amounts due (both principal and interest) according to the terms of the loan agreement.
 
There were no loans modified as troubled debt restructurings during the year ended December 31, 2015.

Related party transaction:
 
On September 25, 2014, the board of directors voted to approve the purchase of the Cornerstone Community Bank Miller Plaza Branch facility located at 835 Georgia Avenue, Chattanooga, Tennessee in the form of a condominium from Lamp Post Properties. The chairman of the board, Miller Welborn, previously owned 20% of Lamp Post Properties and, therefore, Mr. Welborn abstained from the September 25, 2014 vote. The purchase price of the building was $1.4 million and included two full floors and one partial floor of the building, parking, naming rights and signage privileges for the building, among certain other property rights. The transaction closed on February 24, 2015. As of October 1, 2015, Mr. Welborn has no ownership in Lamp Post Properties.

At December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company had $81,859 and $70,819, respectively, of deposit accounts in overdraft status that have been reclassified to loans on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. From time to time, the Company engages in deposit transactions with its directors, executive officers and their related interests (collectively referred to as "related parties"). Such deposits are made in the ordinary course of business and on substantially the same terms as those for comparable transactions prevailing at the time and do not present other unfavorable features.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets
 
Goodwill
 
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of acquired net assets under the acquisition method of accounting. The merger with Cornerstone discussed in Note 2 generated $4,166,069 in goodwill on August 31, 2015. Goodwill is reviewed for potential impairment at least annually at the reporting unit level. The goodwill impairment test requires a two-step method to evaluate and calculate impairment. The first step requires estimation of the reporting unit’s fair value. If the fair value exceeds the carrying value, no further testing is required. If the carrying value exceeds the fair value, a second step is performed to determine whether an impairment charge must be recorded and, if so, the amount of such charge. The Company performed its annual goodwill impairment test as of December 31, 2015, and no impairment was indicated by this test. The Company has not identified any triggering events since the impairment test date that would indicate potential impairment.
 
Intangible Assets
 
Finite lived intangible assets of the Company represent a core deposit premium recorded upon the purchase of certain assets and liabilities from other financial institutions. The Company reviews the carrying value of this intangible on an annual basis and on an interim basis if certain events or circumstances indicate that an impairment loss may have been incurred. Management has determined that no impairment has occurred on this asset.

Federal Home Loan Bank Advances, Disclosure [Text Block]
Note 9.
Federal Home Loan Bank Advances and Other Borrowings
 
Line of Credit
 
On August 28, 2015, the Company entered into a loan agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with CapStar Bank (the “Lender”) providing for a revolving line of credit of up to $8,000,000. The Company may borrow and reborrow under the revolving line of credit until February 28, 2017, after which no advances under the revolving line of credit may be reborrowed. During the first 90 days of the revolving line of credit or at any time during which the Company’s subsidiary banks maintain daily settlement accounts at the Lender, borrowings accrue interest at the Lender’s prime rate, subject to a 3.00% floor. 
Beginning 90 days after the effective date of the revolving line of credit, the Company is required to pay quarterly payments of interest. In addition, commencing on April 15, 2017, the Company must pay quarterly principal amortization payments of $125,000 for each fiscal quarter in 2017, $190,000 for each fiscal quarter in 2018 and $210,000 for each fiscal quarter in 2019 and 2020 until and including the maturity date. The scheduled principal amortization payments are based upon the assumption that the revolving line of credit is fully drawn, and the required payments will be reduced on a pro-rata basis relative to the amount borrowed if the revolving line of credit is not fully drawn. The loan will mature on August 28, 2020, at which time all outstanding amounts under the loan agreement will become due and payable. In connection with entering into the Loan Agreement, the Company issued to the Lender a line of credit note dated as of August 28, 2015.
 
The Loan Agreement contains typical representations, warranties and covenants for a revolving line of credit, and the loan agreement has certain financial covenants and capital ratio requirements. Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the Banks may not permit non-performing assets to be greater than 3.25% of total assets. The Banks must not permit their Texas ratio (nonperforming assets divided by the sum of tangible equity plus the allowance for loan and lease losses) to be greater than 35.00%, and they must not permit their liquidity ratio to be less than 9.00% (or less than 10.00% for two consecutive quarters). In addition, the Company will not permit its debt service coverage ratio to be less than 1.25:1.00 or its interest coverage ratio to be less than 2:50:1.00. As of December 31, 2015 the Company and the Banks were in compliance with all of the loan covenants.
 
The Loan Agreement has standard and commercially reasonable events of default, such as non-payment, failure to perform any covenant or agreement, breach of any representation or warranty, failure to pay other material indebtedness, bankruptcy, insolvency, any ERISA event, any material judgment, any material adverse effect, any change in control, any failure to be insured by the FDIC or any action by a governmental or regulatory authority, etc. The Lender has the right to accelerate the indebtedness upon an event of default.
 
The obligations of the Company under the Loan Agreement are secured by a pledge of all of the capital stock of the Banks pursuant to stock pledge and security agreements. In the event of a default by the Company under the loan Agreement, the lender may terminate the commitments made under the loan agreement, declare all amounts outstanding to be payable immediately, and exercise or pursue any other remedy permitted under the loan agreement or the pledge agreements, or conferred to the lender by operation of law. As of December 31, 2015 the outstanding borrowings under the line of credit were $2,000,000 and the rate was 3.50%.
 
The primary source of liquidity for the Company is the payment of dividends from the Banks. As of December 31, 2015, the Banks were under no dividend restrictions that requires regulatory approval prior to the payment of a dividend from the Banks to the Company.
 
FHLB borrowings
 
The Banks have agreements with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati (FHLB) that can provide advances to the Banks in an amount up to $61,317,480. All of the loans are secured by first mortgages on 1-4 family residential, multi-family properties and commercial properties and are pledged as collateral for these advances. Additionally, the Banks have pledged securities to FHLB with a carrying amount of $23,853,366 at December 31, 2015. No securities were pledged at December 31, 2014.
 
At December 31, 2015, FHLB advances consist of the following (amounts in thousands):

During the fixed rate term, the advances may be prepaid subject to a prepayment penalty as defined in the agreements. On agreements with put options, the FHLB has the right, at its discretion, to terminate only the entire advance prior to the stated maturity date. The termination option may only be exercised on the expiration date of the predetermined lockout period and on a quarterly basis thereafter.

Legacy Cornerstone Non-Qualified Plan Options — During 2013 and 2014, Cornerstone issued non-qualified options to employees and directors. The options were originally documented in 2013 as being issued out of the Cornerstone Bancshares, Inc. 2002 Long Term Incentive Plan but that plan expired in 2012. The non-qualified options are governed by the grant document issued to the holders which incorporate the terms of the plan by reference.
 
Legacy SmartBank Stock Option Plan – This plan was assumed by the Company on August 31, 2015. The plan provides for incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options. The maximum number of common shares that can be sold or optioned under the plan is 525,000 shares.

The per share exercise price for the shares to be issued upon exercise of an option shall be such price as is determined by the plan administrator, subject to the following: In the case of an incentive stock option: (1) granted to an employee who, at the time of grant of such option, owns stock representing more than ten percent of the voting power of all classes of stock of the company or any parent or subsidiary thereof, the exercise price shall be no less than one hundred and ten percent of the fair market value per share on the date of grant; or (2) granted to any other employee, the per share exercise price shall be no less than one hundred percent of the fair market value per share on the date of grant. In the case of a nonstatutory stock option, the per share exercise price shall be no less than one hundred percent of the fair market value per share on the date of grant, unless otherwise determined by the Administrator.

Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase
 
Securities sold under repurchase agreements, which are secured borrowings, generally mature within one to four days from the transaction date. Securities sold under repurchase agreements are reflected at the amount of cash received in connection with the transaction. The Company may be required to provide additional collateral based on the fair value of the underlying securities. The Company monitors the fair value of the underlying securities on a daily basis.
 
At December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company had securities sold under agreements to repurchase of $28,068,215 and $9,758,018, respectively, with commercial checking customers.

Commitments and Contingencies
 
Loan Commitments:
 
The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing and depository needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Such commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheets. The majority of all commitments to extend credit are variable rate instruments while the standby letters of credit are primarily fixed rate instruments.
 
The Company's exposure to credit loss is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.
 
A summary of the Banks’ total contractual amount for all off-balance sheet commitments at December 31, 2015 is as follows:
 
Commitments to extend credit
 
$
122.2 million
 
Standby letters of credit, issued by the Company
 
$
2.9 million
 
 
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management's credit evaluation of the customer. Collateral held varies, but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property and equipment, residential real estate, and income-producing commercial properties.
 
Standby letters of credit issued by the Company are conditional commitments to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those letters of credit are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers. Collateral held varies and is required in instances which the Company deems necessary.
 
At December 31, 2015 and 2014, the carrying amount of liabilities related to the Company's obligation to perform under standby letters of credit was insignificant. The Company has not been required to perform on any standby letters of credit, and the Company has not incurred any losses on standby letters of credit for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014.
 
Contingencies:
 
In the normal course of business, the Company may become involved in various legal proceedings. In the opinion of management, any liability resulting from such proceedings would not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

Regulatory Capital Requirements under Banking Regulations [Text Block]
Note 13.
Regulatory Matters
 
Regulatory Capital Requirements
 
The Company and the Banks are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary actions, by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and the Banks must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices.
 
Effective January 1, 2015, the Company and the Banks are subject to the new regulatory risk-based capital rules adopted by the federal banking agencies implementing Basel III. Under the new capital guidelines, Tier 1 capital generally consists of common stock (plus related surplus) and retained earnings, limited amounts of minority interest in the form of additional Tier 1 capital instruments, and non-cumulative preferred stock and related surplus, subject to certain eligibility standards, less goodwill and other specified intangible assets and other regulatory deductions. Cumulative preferred stock and trust preferred securities issued after May 19, 2010 will no longer qualify as Tier 1 capital, but such securities issued prior to May 19, 2010, including in the case of bank holding companies with less than $15 billion in total assets at that date, trust preferred securities issued prior to that date, will continue to count as Tier 1 capital subject to certain limitations. Tier 2 capital consists of the allowance for loan and lease losses in an amount not exceeding 1.25% of standardized risk-weighted assets, plus qualifying preferred stock, qualifying subordinated debt and qualifying total capital minority interest, net of Tier 2 investments in financial institutions. Total Tier 1 capital, plus Tier 2 capital, constitutes total risk-based capital. The required minimum ratios are as follows:
 
common equity Tier 1 capital ratio (common equity Tier 1 capital to standardized total risk-weighted assets) of 4.5%;
 
Tier 1 capital ratio (Tier 1 capital to standardized total risk-weighted assets) of 6%;
 
total capital ratio (total capital to standardized total risk-weighted assets) of 8%; and
 
leverage ratio (Tier 1 capital to average total consolidated assets) of 4%.
 
The new capital guidelines also provide that all covered banking organizations must maintain a new capital conservation buffer of common equity Tier 1 capital in an amount greater than 2.5% of total risk-weighted assets to avoid being subject to limitations on capital distributions and discretionary bonus payments to executive officers. The capital conservation buffer requirement will be phased in beginning in January 1, 2016 at the 0.625% level and will be increased by that same amount on each subsequent January 1 until it reaches 2.5% on January 1, 2019. When fully phased in, the capital conservation buffer effectively will result in a required minimum common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of at least 7.0%, Tier 1 capital ratio of at least 8.5% and total capital ratio of at least 10.5%. The capital guidelines also provide for a “countercyclical capital buffer” that is applicable only to certain covered institutions and does not have any current applicability to the Company and the Banks. Failure to satisfy the capital buffer requirements will result in increasingly stringent limitations on various types of capital distributions, including dividends, share buybacks and discretionary payments on Tier 1 instruments, and discretionary bonus payments.
 
The final regulatory capital rules also incorporate these changes in regulatory capital into the prompt corrective action framework, under which the thresholds for “adequately capitalized” banking organizations are equal to the new minimum capital requirements. Under this framework, in order to be considered “well capitalized”, insured depository institutions are required to maintain a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 5%, a common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital measure of 6.5%, a Tier 1 risked-based capital ratio of 8% and a total risk-based capital ratio of 10%.
 
At December 31, 2015, under the new regulations in effect on January 1, 2015, both the Company and the Banks were “well capitalized”. As permitted for regulated institutions that are not designated as ”advanced approach” banking organizations (those with assets greater than $250 billion or with foreign exposures greater than $10 billion), the Company and the Banks made a one-time, permanent election to opt out of the requirement to include most components of accumulated other comprehensive income in regulatory capital. At December 31, 2014, the Banks were “well capitalized” under the standards in effect at that time. In 2014 the Company was not subject to the regulatory capital reporting requirements.
 
Regulatory Restrictions on Dividends
 
Pursuant to Tennessee banking law, the Banks may not, without the prior consent of the Commissioner of the Tennessee Department of Financial Institutions (TDFI), pay any dividends to the Company in a calendar year in excess of the total of the Banks’ retained net income for that year plus the retained net income for the preceding two years. During the year ended December 31, 2015, SmartBank paid $500,000 in dividends to the Company. As of December 31, 2015, the Banks could pay approximately $7.4 million of dividends to the Company without prior approval of the Commissioner of the TDFI.

Concentrations of Credit Risk
 
The Company originates primarily commercial, residential, and consumer loans to customers in eastern Tennessee, northwest Florida and north Georgia. The ability of the majority of the Company's customers to honor their contractual loan obligations is dependent on the economy in these areas.
 
Eighty seven percent of the Company's loan portfolio is concentrated in loans secured by real estate, of which a substantial portion is secured by real estate in the Company's primary market areas. Commercial real estate, including commercial construction loans, represented 65 percent of the loan portfolio at December 31, 2015, and 68 percent of the loan portfolio at December 31, 2014. Accordingly, the ultimate collectability of the loan portfolio and recovery of the carrying amount of foreclosed assets is susceptible to changes in real estate conditions in the Company's primary market areas. The other concentrations of credit by type of loan are set forth in Note 4.
 
The Banks, as a matter of policy, do not generally extend credit to any single borrower or group of related borrowers in excess of 25% of statutory capital, or approximately $9,929,000 in case of Cornerstone Community Bank and $14,136,000 in the case of SmartBank.

Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]  
Fair Value Disclosures [Text Block]
Note 15.
Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities
 
Determination of Fair Value:
 
The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. In accordance with Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures topic (FASB ASC 820), the fair value of a financial instrument is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is best determined based upon quoted market prices. However, in many instances, there are no quoted market prices for the Company's various financial instruments. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. Accordingly, the fair value estimates may not be realized in an immediate settlement of the instrument.
 
The fair value guidance provides a consistent definition of fair value, which focuses on exit price in an orderly transaction (that is, not a forced liquidation or distressed sale) between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. If there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability, a change in valuation technique or the use of multiple valuation techniques may be appropriate. In such instances, determining the price at which willing market participants would transact at the measurement date under current market conditions depends on the facts and circumstances and requires the use of significant judgment. The fair value is a reasonable point within the range that is most representative of fair value under current market conditions.
 
Fair Value Hierarchy:
 
In accordance with this guidance, the Company groups its financial assets and financial liabilities generally measured at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value.
 
Level 1- Valuation is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 1 assets and liabilities generally include debt and equity securities that are traded in an active exchange market. Valuations are obtained from readily available pricing sources for market transactions involving identical assets or liabilities.
 
Level 2 - Valuation is based on inputs other than quoted prices included within Level I that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. The valuation may be based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
 
Level 3 - Valuation is based on unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.
 
A financial instrument's categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
 
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating fair value disclosures for financial instruments:
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents:For cash and due from banks, interest-bearing deposits, and federal funds sold, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value based on the short-term nature of the assets.
 
Securities Available for Sale:Where quoted prices are available in an active market, management classifies the securities within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. If quoted market prices are not available, management estimates fair values using pricing models and discounted cash flows that consider standard input factors such as observable market data, benchmark yields, interest rate volatilities, broker/dealer quotes, and credit spreads. Examples of such instruments, which would generally be classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy, including GSE obligations, corporate bonds, and other securities. Mortgage-backed securities are included in Level 2 if observable inputs are available. In certain cases where there is limited activity or less transparency around inputs to the valuation, management classifies those securities in Level 3.
 
Restricted Investments:For restricted investments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value based on the redemption provisions of the restrictive entities.
 
Loans:For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values. Fair value for fixed rate loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using market interest rates for comparable loans. Fair values for nonperforming loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses or underlying collateral values, where applicable.
 
Deposits:The fair values disclosed for demand deposits (for example, interest and noninterest checking, savings, and certain types of money market accounts) are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (that is, their carrying amounts). Fair values for fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies market interest rates on comparable instruments to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits.
 
Securities Sold Under Agreement to Repurchase:The carrying value of these liabilities approximates their fair value.
 
Federal Home Loan Bank Advances and Other Borrowings: The fair value of the FHLB fixed rate borrowings are estimated using discounted cash flows, based on the current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.
 
Commitments to Extend Credit and Standby Letters of Credit: Because commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit are made using variable rates and have short maturities, the carrying value and the fair value are immaterial for disclosure.

Impaired Loans: Loans considered impaired under ASC 310-10-35, Receivables, are loans for which, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all principal and interest payments due in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impaired loans can be measured based on the present value of expected payments using the loan’s original effective rate as the discount rate, the loan’s observable market price, or the fair value of the collateral less selling costs if the loan is collateral dependent.
 
The fair value of impaired loans were primarily measured based on the value of the collateral securing these loans. Impaired loans are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Collateral may be real estate and/or business assets including equipment, inventory, and/or accounts receivable. The Company determines the value of the collateral based on independent appraisals performed by qualified licensed appraisers. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Appraised values are discounted for costs to sell and may be discounted further based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the date of the most recent appraisal, and/or management’s expertise and knowledge of the customer and the customer’s business. Such discounts by management are subjective and are typically significant unobservable inputs for determining fair value. Impaired loans are reviewed and evaluated on at least a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly, based on the same factors discussed above.
 
Foreclosed assets: Foreclosed assets, consisting of properties obtained through foreclosure or in satisfaction of loans, are initially recorded at fair value less estimated costs to sell upon transfer of the loans to other real estate. Subsequently, other real estate is carried at the lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to sell. Fair values are generally based on third party appraisals of the property and are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The appraisals are sometimes further discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, and/or changes in market conditions from the date of the most recent appraisal, and/or management’s expertise and knowledge of the customer and the customer’s business. Such discounts are typically significant unobservable inputs for determining fair value. In cases where the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, less estimated costs to sell, a loss is recognized in noninterest expense.

Limitations
 
Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Company’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on many judgments. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.
 
Fair value estimates are based on existing on and off-balance sheet financial instruments without attempting to estimate the value of anticipated future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments. Significant assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments include deferred income taxes and premises and equipment. In addition, the tax ramifications related to the realization of the unrealized gains and losses can have a significant effect on fair value estimates and have not been considered in the estimates

Earnings Per Share
 
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and dilutive common share equivalents using the treasury stock method. Dilutive common share equivalents include common shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding stock options. The effect from the stock options on incremental shares from the assumed conversions for net income per share-basic and net income per share-diluted are presented below.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)
12 Months Ended
Dec. 31, 2015
Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Nature Of Business, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Nature of Business:
 
SmartFinancial, Inc. (the "Company") is a bank holding company whose principal activity is the ownership and management of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Cornerstone Community Bank and SmartBank (the "Banks"). The Company provides a variety of financial services to individuals and corporate customers through its offices in eastern Tennessee, northeast Florida, and north Georgia. The Company's primary deposit products are interest-bearing demand deposits and certificates of deposit. Its primary lending products are commercial, residential, and consumer loans.
Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Basis of Presentation and Accounting Estimates:
 
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
In preparing the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet, and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of foreclosed assets and deferred taxes, other-than-temporary impairments of securities, and the fair value of financial instruments.
 
The determination of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is based on estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant changes in the economic environment and market conditions. In connection with the determination of the estimated losses on loans, management obtains independent appraisals for significant collateral.
 
The Company's loans are generally secured by specific items of collateral including real property, consumer assets, and business assets. Although the Company has a diversified loan portfolio, a substantial portion of its debtors' ability to honor their contracts is dependent on local economic conditions.
 
While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, further reductions in the carrying amounts of loans may be necessary based on changes in local economic conditions. In addition, regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the estimated losses on loans. Such agencies may require the Company to recognize additional losses based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination. Because of these factors, it is reasonably possible that the estimated losses on loans may change materially in the near term. However, the amount of the change that is reasonably possible cannot be estimated.
 
The Company has evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition and/or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in this Annual Report.
Cash and Cash Equivalents, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Cash and Cash Equivalents:
 
For purposes of reporting consolidated cash flows, cash and due from banks includes cash on hand, cash items in process of collection and amounts due from banks. Cash and cash equivalents also includes interest-bearing deposits in banks and federal funds sold. Cash flows from loans, federal funds sold, securities sold under agreements to repurchase and deposits are reported net.
 
The Bank is required to maintain average balances in cash or on deposit with the Federal Reserve Bank. The reserve requirement was $1,031 and $3,089 at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
 
The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with other financial institutions and limits the amount of credit exposure to any one financial institution. From time to time, the balances at these financial institutions exceed the amount insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Company has not experienced any losses on these accounts and management considers this to be a normal business risk.
Marketable Securities, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Securities:
 
Management has classified all securities as available for sale. Securities available for sale are recorded at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported in other comprehensive income. Purchase premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the terms of the securities. Gains and losses on the sale of securities are recorded on the trade date and are determined using the specific identification method.
 
The Company evaluates investment securities for other-than-temporary impairment using relevant accounting guidance specifying that (a) if the Company does not have the intent to sell a debt security prior to recovery and (b) it is more likely than not that it will not have to sell the debt security prior to recovery, the security would not be considered other-than-temporarily impaired unless a credit loss has occurred in the security. If management does not intend to sell the security and it is more likely than not that they will not have to sell the security before recovery of the cost basis, management will recognize the credit component of an other-than- temporary impairment of a debt security in earnings and the remaining portion in other comprehensive income.
 
Securities borrowed or purchased under agreements to resell and securities loaned or sold under agreements to repurchase are treated as collateralized financial transactions. These agreements are recorded at the amount at which the securities were acquired or sold plus accrued interest. It is the Company's policy to take possession of securities purchased under resale agreements. The market value of these securities is monitored, and additional securities are obtained when deemed appropriate to ensure such transactions are adequately collateralized. The Company also monitors its exposure with respect to securities sold under repurchase agreements, and a request for the return of excess securities held by the counterparty is made when deemed appropriate.
Restricted Investments [Policy Text Block]
Restricted - Investments:
 
The Company is required to maintain an investment in capital stock of various entities. Based on redemption provisions of these entities, the stock has no quoted market value and is carried at cost. At their discretion, these entities may declare dividends on the stock. Management reviews for impairment based on the ultimate recoverability of the cost basis in these stocks.
Loans and Leases Receivable, Valuation, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Loans:
 
Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or pay-off are reported at their outstanding principal balances less deferred fees and costs on originated loans and the allowance for loan losses. Interest income is accrued on the outstanding principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs of consumer and installment loans are recognized at the time the loan is placed on the books. Loan origination fees for all other loans are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the yield over the life of the loan using the straight-line method without anticipating prepayments.
 
The accrual of interest on loans is discontinued when, in management's opinion, the borrower may be unable to meet payments as they become due, or at the time the loan is 90 days past due, unless the loan is well-secured and in the process of collection. Unsecured loans are typically charged off no later than 120 days past due. Past due status is based on contractual terms of the loan. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual or charged-off at an earlier date if collection of principal and interest is considered doubtful. All interest accrued but not collected for loans that are placed on nonaccrual or charged off is reversed against interest income or charged to the allowance, unless management believes that the accrual of interest is recoverable through the liquidation of collateral. Interest income on nonaccrual loans is recognized on the cash basis, until the loans are returned to accrual status. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and the loan has been performing according to the contractual terms for a period of not less than six months.
Acquired Loans [Policy Text Block]
Acquired Loans:
 
Acquired loans are those that were acquired when SmartBank assumed all the deposits and certain assets of the former Gulf South Private Bank (“Gulf South transaction”) on October 19, 2012 and the former Cornerstone Bancshares, Inc. (“Cornerstone”) on August 31, 2015. The fair values of acquired loans with evidence of credit deterioration, purchased credit impaired loans (“PCI loans”), are recorded net of a nonaccretable discount and accretable discount. Any excess of cash flows expected at acquisition over the estimated fair value is referred to as the accretable discount and is recognized in interest income over the remaining life of the loan when there is reasonable expectation about the amount and timing of such cash flows. The difference between contractually required payments at acquisition and the cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition is the nonaccretable discount, which is included in the carrying amount of acquired loans. Subsequent decreases to the expected cash flows will generally result in a provision for loan losses. Subsequent increases in cash flows result in a reversal of the provision for loan losses to the extent of prior charges or a reclassification of the difference from nonaccretable to accretable with a positive impact on the accretable discount. Acquired loans are initially recorded at fair value at acquisition date. Accretable discounts related to certain fair value adjustments are accreted into income over the estimated lives of the loans.
 
The Company accounts for performing loans acquired in the acquisition using the expected cash flows method of recognizing discount accretion based on the acquired loans' expected cash flows. Management recasts the estimate of cash flows expected to be collected on each acquired impaired loan pool periodically. If the present value of expected cash flows for a pool is less than its carrying value, an impairment is recognized by an increase in the allowance for loan losses and a charge to the provision for loan losses. If the present value of expected cash flows for a pool is greater than its carrying value, any previously established allowance for loan losses is reversed and any remaining difference increases the accretable yield which will be taken into interest income over the remaining life of the loan pool. Acquired impaired loans are generally not subject to individual evaluation for impairment and are not reported with impaired loans, even if they would otherwise qualify for such treatment. Purchased performing loans are recorded at fair value, including a credit discount. Credit losses on acquired performing loans are estimated based on analysis of the performing portfolio. Such estimated credit losses are recorded as nonaccretable discounts in a manner similar to purchased impaired loans. The fair value discount other than for credit loss is accreted as an adjustment to yield over the estimated lives of the loans. A provision for loan losses is recorded for any deterioration in these loans subsequent to the acquisition.
Loans and Leases Receivable, Allowance for Loan Losses Policy [Policy Text Block]
Allowance for Loan Losses:
 
The allowance for loan losses is established as losses are estimated to have occurred through a provision for loan losses charged to expense. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Confirmed losses are charged off immediately. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.
 
The allowance is an amount that management believes will be adequate to absorb estimated losses relating to specifically identified loans, as well as probable credit losses inherent in the balance of the loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a regular basis by management and is based upon management's periodic review of the uncollectibility of loans in light of historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality, review of specific problem loans, current economic conditions that may affect the borrower's ability to pay, estimated value of any underlying collateral and prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. This evaluation does not include the effects of expected losses on specific loans or groups of loans that are related to future events or expected changes in economic conditions. While management uses the best information available to make its evaluation, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if there are significant changes in economic conditions. In addition, regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company's allowance for loan losses, and may require the Company to make additions to the allowance based on their judgment about information available to them at the time of their examinations.
 
The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are classified as impaired. For impaired loans, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows, collateral value, or observable market price of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan. The general component covers non-impaired loans and is based on a weighted average derived from the Company's historical loss experience adjusted for other qualitative factors. Other adjustments may be made to the allowance for pools of loans after an assessment of internal or external influences on credit quality that are not fully reflected in the historical loss or risk rating data.
 
An unallocated component may be maintained to cover uncertainties that could affect management's estimate of probable losses. The unallocated component of the allowance reflects the margin of imprecision inherent in the underlying assumptions used in the methodologies for estimating specific and general losses in the portfolio. As part of the risk management program, an independent review is performed on the loan portfolio, which supplements management’s assessment of the loan portfolio and the allowance for loan losses. The result of the independent review is reported directly to the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. Loans, for which the terms have been modified at the borrower's request, and for which the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties, are considered troubled debt restructurings and classified as impaired.
 
A loan is considered impaired when it is probable, based on current information and events, the Company will be unable to collect all principal and interest payments due in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls are not classified as impaired. Impaired loans are measured by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, the loan's obtainable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. Interest on accruing impaired loans is recognized as long as such loans do not meet the criteria for nonaccrual status. Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment.
 
The Company's homogeneous loan pools include consumer real estate loans, commercial real estate loans, construction and land development loans, commercial and industrial loans, and consumer and other loans. The general allocations to these loan pools are based on the historical loss rates for specific loan types and the internal risk grade, if applicable, adjusted for both internal and external qualitative risk factors. The qualitative factors considered by management include, among other factors, (1) changes in local and national economic conditions; (2) changes in asset quality; (3) changes in loan portfolio volume; (4) the composition and concentrations of credit; (5) the impact of competition on loan structuring and pricing; (6) the impact of interest rate changes on portfolio risk and (7) effectiveness of the Company's loan policies, procedures and internal controls. The total allowance established for each homogeneous loan pool represents the product of the historical loss ratio adjusted for qualitative factors and the total dollar amount of the loans in the pool.
Loans and Leases Receivable, Troubled Debt Restructuring Policy [Policy Text Block]
Troubled Debt Restructurings:
 
The Company designates loan modifications as troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs") when for economic and legal reasons related to the borrower's financial difficulties, it grants a concession to the borrower that it would not otherwise consider. TDRs can involve loans remaining on nonaccrual, moving to nonaccrual, or continuing on accrual status, depending on the individual facts and circumstances of the borrower. In circumstances where the TDR involves charging off a portion of the loan balance, the Company typically classifies these restructurings as nonaccrual. 
 
In connection with restructurings, the decision to maintain a loan that has been restructured on accrual status is based on a current, well documented credit evaluation of the borrower's financial condition and prospects for repayment under the modified terms. This evaluation includes consideration of the borrower's current capacity to pay, which among other things may include a review of the borrower's current financial statements, an analysis of global cash flow sufficient to pay all debt obligations, a debt to income analysis, and an evaluation of secondary sources of payment from the borrower and any guarantors. This evaluation also includes an evaluation of the borrower's current willingness to pay, which may include a review of past payment history, an evaluation of the borrower's willingness to provide information on a timely basis, and consideration of offers from the borrower to provide additional collateral or guarantor support. The credit evaluation also reflects consideration of the borrower's future capacity and willingness to pay, which may include evaluation of cash flow projections, consideration of the adequacy of collateral to cover all principal and interest, and trends indicating improving profitability and collectability of receivables.
 
Restructured nonaccrual loans may be returned to accrual status based on a current, well-documented credit evaluation of the borrower's financial condition and prospects for repayment under the modified terms. This evaluation must include consideration of the borrower's sustained historical repayment for a reasonable period, generally a minimum of six months, prior to the date on which the loan is returned to accrual status.
Finance, Loan and Lease Receivables, Held for Investments, Foreclosed Assets Policy [Policy Text Block]
Foreclosed Assets:
 
Foreclosed assets acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are held for sale and are initially recorded at fair value less selling costs. Any write-down to fair value at the time of transfer to foreclosed assets is charged to the allowance for loan losses. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management and the assets are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Costs of improvements are capitalized, whereas costs relating to holding foreclosed assets and subsequent write-downs to the value are expensed. The amount of residential real estate where physical possession had been obtained included within foreclosed assets at December 31, 2015 and 2014 was $227,000 and $3,293,000, respectively. The amount of residential real estate in process of foreclosure at December 31, 2015 was $61,000. There was no residential real estate in process of foreclosure at December 31, 2014.
Property, Plant and Equipment, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Premises and Equipment:
 
Land is carried at cost. Premises and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets or the expected terms of the leases, if shorter. Expected terms include lease option periods to the extent that the exercise of such options is reasonably assured. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred while major additions and improvements are capitalized. Gains and losses on dispositions are included in current operations.
 
Buildings and leasehold improvements
15 - 40 years
Furniture and equipment
3-7 years
Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Goodwill and Intangible Assets:
 
Goodwill represents the cost in excess of the fair value of net assets acquired (including identifiable intangibles) in transactions accounted for as business combinations. Goodwill has an indefinite useful life and is evaluated for impairment annually, or more frequently if events and circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. An impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying amount exceeds the acquired asset’s fair value. The goodwill impairment analysis is a two-step test. The first, used to identify potential impairment, involves comparing each reporting unit’s estimated fair value to its carrying value, including goodwill. If the estimated fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, goodwill is considered not to be impaired. If the carrying value exceeds estimated fair value, there is an indication of potential impairment and the second step is performed to measure the amount of impairment. The Company performs its annual goodwill impairment test as of December 31 of each year. For 2015, the results of the first step of the goodwill impairment test provided no indication of potential impairment. Goodwill will continue to be monitored for triggering events that may indicate impairment prior to the next scheduled annual impairment test.
 
Intangible assets consist of core deposit premiums acquired in connection with the Gulf South and Cornerstone transactions. The core deposit premium is initially recognized based on a valuation performed as of the consummation date. The core deposit premium is amortized over the average remaining life of the acquired customer deposits. Amortization expense relating to these intangible assets was $233,204 and $163,100 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The intangible assets were evaluated for impairment as of December 31, 2015, and based on that evaluation it was determined that there was no impairment.
Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Transfer of Financial Assets:
 
Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales, when control over the assets has been surrendered. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when (1) the assets have been isolated from the Company - put presumptively beyond the reach of the transferor and its creditors, even in bankruptcy or other receivership, (2) the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets, and (3) the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity or the ability to unilaterally cause the holder to return specific assets.
Advertising Costs, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Advertising Costs:
 
The Company expenses all advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense was $452,849 and $420,048 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Income Tax, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Income Taxes:
 
The income tax accounting guidance results in two components of income tax expense: current and deferred. Current income tax expense reflects taxes to be paid or refunded for the current period by applying the provisions of the enacted tax law to the taxable income or excess of deductions over revenues. The Company determines deferred income taxes using the liability (or balance sheet) method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is based on the tax effects of the differences between the book and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and enacted changes in tax rates and laws are recognized in the period in which they occur.
 
Deferred income tax expense results from changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities between periods. Deferred tax assets are recognized if it is more likely than not, based on the technical merits, that the tax position will be realized or sustained upon examination. The term more likely than not means a likelihood of more than 50 percent; the terms examined and upon examination also include resolution of the related appeals or litigation processes, if any. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is initially and subsequently measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. The determination of whether or not a tax position has met the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold considers the facts, circumstances, and information available at the reporting date and is subject to management's judgment. Deferred tax assets may be reduced by deferred tax liabilities and a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of evidence available, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized.
Share-based Compensation, Option and Incentive Plans Policy [Policy Text Block]
Stock Compensation Plans:
 
At December 31, 2015, the Company had options outstanding under stock-based compensation plans, which are described in more detail in Note 10. The plans have been accounted for under the accounting guidance (FASB ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation) which requires that the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial statements. That cost will be measured based on the grant date fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. The stock compensation accounting guidance covers a wide range of share-based compensation arrangements including stock options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights, and stock or other stock based awards.
 
The stock compensation accounting guidance requires that compensation cost for all stock awards be calculated and recognized over the employees' service period, generally defined as the vesting period. For awards with graded-vesting, compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award. A Black-Scholes model is used to estimate the fair value of stock options, while the market value of the Company's common stock at the date of grant is used for restrictive stock awards and stock grants.
Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Employee Benefit Plan:
 
Employee benefit plan costs are based on the percentage of individual employee's salary, not to exceed the amount that can be deducted for federal income tax purposes.
Consolidation, Variable Interest Entity, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Variable interest entities:
 
An entity is referred to as a variable interest entity (VIE) if it meets the criteria outlined in ASC Topic 810, which are: (1) the entity has equity that is insufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties or (2) the entity has equity investors that cannot make significant decisions about the entity's operations or that do not absorb the expected losses or receive the expected returns of the entity. A VIE must be consolidated by the Company if it is deemed to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE, which is the party involved with the VIE that has a majority of the expected losses, expected residual returns, or both. At December 31, 2015, the Company had an investment in Community Advantage Fund, LLC that qualified as an unconsolidated VIE.
 
The Company’s investment in a partnership consists of an equity interest in a lending partnership for the purposes of loaning funds to an unrelated entity. This entity will use the funds to make loans through the SBA Community Advantage loan Initiative. 
 
The Company uses the equity method when it owns an interest in a partnership and can exert significant influence over the partnership’s operations. Under the equity method, the Company’s ownership interest in the partnership’s capital is reported as an investment on its consolidated balance sheets in other assets and the Company’s allocable share of the income or loss from the partnership is reported in noninterest income or expense in the consolidated statements of income. The Company ceases recording losses on an investment in partnership when the cumulative losses and distributions from the partnership exceed the carrying amount of the investment and any advances made by the Company. After the Company’s investment in such partnership reaches zero, cash distributions received from these investments are recorded as income.
Comprehensive Income, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Comprehensive Income:
 
Accounting principles generally require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income. Although certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities, are reported as a separate component of the equity section of the balance sheet, such items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Fair Value of Financial Instruments:
 
Fair values of financial instruments are estimates using relevant market information and other assumptions, as more fully disclosed in Note 15. Fair value estimates involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment. Changes in assumptions or in market conditions could significantly affect the estimates.
Business Combinations Policy [Policy Text Block]
Business Combinations:
 
Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. Under the acquisition method of accounting, acquired assets and assumed liabilities are included with the acquirer's accounts as of the date of acquisition at estimated fair value, with any excess of purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired (including identifiable intangible assets) capitalized as goodwill. In the event that the fair value of the net assets acquired exceeds the purchase price, an acquisition gain is recorded for the difference in consolidated statements of income for the period in which the acquisition occurred. An intangible asset is recognized as an asset apart from goodwill when it arises from contractual or other legal rights or if it is capable of being separated or divided from the acquired entity and sold, transferred, licensed, rented or exchanged. In addition, acquisition-related costs and restructuring costs are recognized as period expenses as incurred. Estimates of fair value are subject to refinement for a period of not to exceed one year from acquisition date as information relative to acquisition date fair values becomes available.
Earnings Per Share, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Earnings per common share:
 
Basic earnings per common share represents income available to common stockholders divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share reflects additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued, as well as any adjustment to income that would result from the assumed issuance. Potential common shares that may be issued by the Company relate solely to outstanding stock options and are determined using the treasury stock method
Segment Reporting, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Segment reporting:
 
ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting,” provides for the identification of reportable segments on the basis of distinct business units and their financial information to the extent such units are reviewed by an entity’s chief decision maker (which can be an individual or group of management persons). ASC Topic 280 permits aggregation or combination of segments that have similar characteristics. In the Company’s operations, each bank branch is viewed by management as being a separately identifiable business or segment from the perspective of monitoring performance and allocation of financial resources. Although the branches operate independently and are managed and monitored separately, each is substantially similar in terms of business focus, type of customers, products, and services. Accordingly, the Company’s consolidated financial statements reflect the presentation of segment information on an aggregated basis in one reportable segment.
New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements:
 
The following is a summary of recent authoritative pronouncements that could impact the accounting, reporting, and/or disclosure of financial information by the Company.
 
In January 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) amended the Receivables topic of the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) in ASU 2014-04, Receivables—Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40): Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure. The amendments are intended to resolve diversity in practice with respect to when a creditor should reclassify a collateralized consumer mortgage loan to foreclosed assets In addition, the amendments require a creditor to reclassify a collateralized consumer mortgage loan to foreclosed assets upon obtaining legal title to the real estate collateral, or the borrower voluntarily conveying all interest in the real estate property to the lender to satisfy the loan through a deed in lieu of foreclosure or similar legal agreement. The amendments will be effective for the Company for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015, with early implementation of the guidance permitted. In implementing this guidance, assets that are reclassified from foreclosed assets to loans are measured at the carrying value of the real estate at the date of adoption. Assets reclassified from loans to foreclosed assets are measured at the lower of the net amount of the loan receivable or the fair value of the foreclosed assets less costs to sell at the date of adoption. The Company will apply the amendments. The Company does not expect these amendments to have a material effect on its financial statements.
 
In May 2014, the FASB issued guidance to change the recognition of revenue from contracts with customers in ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The core principle of the new guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to reflect the transfer of goods and services to customers in an amount equal to the consideration the entity receives or expects to receive. The guidance will be effective for the Company for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company will apply the guidance using a full retrospective approach. The Company does not expect these amendments to have a material effect on its financial statements.
 
In June 2014, the FASB issued guidance which makes limited amendments to the guidance on accounting for certain repurchase agreements in ASU 2014-11, Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860). The new guidance requires entities to (1) account for repurchase-to-maturity transactions as secured borrowings (rather than as sales with forward repurchase agreements), (2) eliminates accounting guidance on linked repurchase financing transactions, and (3) expands disclosure requirements related to certain transfers of financial assets that are accounted for as sales and certain transfers (specifically, repos, securities lending transactions, and repurchase-to-maturity transactions) accounted for as secured borrowings. The amendments will be effective for the Company for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company will apply the guidance by making a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The Company does not expect these amendments to have a material effect on its financial statements.
 
In August 2014, the FASB issued guidance that is intended to define management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures in ASU No. 2014-14, Receivables - Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40): Classification of Certain Government-Guaranteed Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure. In connection with preparing financial statements, management will need to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. The amendments will be effective for the Company for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. The Company does not expect these amendments to have any effect on its financial statements.
 
In January 2015, the FASB issued guidance that eliminated the concept of extraordinary items from U.S. GAAP in ASU No. 2015-01 - Income Statement-Extraordinary and Unusual Items (Subtopic 225-20). Existing U.S. GAAP required that an entity separately classify, present, and disclose extraordinary events and transactions. The amendments will eliminate the requirements for reporting entities to consider whether an underlying event or transaction is extraordinary, however, the presentation and disclosure guidance for items that are unusual in nature or occur infrequently will be retained and will be expanded to include items that are both unusual in nature and infrequently occurring. The amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. The amendments may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Early adoption is permitted provided that the guidance is applied from the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. The Company does not expect these amendments to have any effect on its financial statements
 
In September 2015, the FASB issued guidance that simplifies the accounting for adjustments made to provisional amounts recognized in a business combination by eliminating the requirement to retrospectively account for those adjustments in ASU 2015-16: Business Combinations (Topic 805): Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement Period Adjustments. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company does not expect this guidance to have a material effect on its financial statements.
 
In January 2016, the FASB issued guidance that primarily affects the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option, and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments in ASU No. 2016-01 -Financial Instruments-Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. In addition, the FASB clarified guidance related to the valuation allowance assessment when recognizing deferred tax assets resulting from unrealized losses on available-for-sale debt securities. The guidance will be effective in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is evaluating the impact of this update on its financial statements.
 
In February 2016, the FASB issued guidance that requires lessees to recognize almost all leases on their balance sheet as a right-of-use asset and a lease liability in ASU 2016-02: Leases (Topic 842). For income statement purposes, the FASB retained a dual model, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance. Classification will be based on criteria that are largely similar to those applied in current lease accounting, but without explicit bright lines. Lessor accounting is similar to the current model, but updated to align with certain changes to the lessee model and the new revenue recognition standard. Existing sale-leaseback guidance, including guidance for real estate, is replaced with a new model applicable to both lessees and lessors. The new guidance will be effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is evaluating the impact of this update on its financial statements.
