Key Financial Metrics
The filing does not provide specific financial data such as revenue, profit, cash flow, margins, debt, or liquidity figures. The document focuses exclusively on executive compensation structures and performance metrics rather than financial results.
Material Changes
The primary material change reported is the establishment of specific incentive targets for fiscal 2017 for five named executive officers. The targeted incentive award opportunities are defined as percentages of annual base salary:
- Dana L. Stonestreet (CEO): 55% of annual base salary.
- C. Hunter Westbrook (CBO): 40% of annual base salary.
- Tony J. VunCannon (CFO): 30% of annual base salary.

Guidance, Outlook, and Management Commentary
Awards are designated as "cash awards" under the 2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan. A critical contingency for payment is that the Company must have positive operating earnings for fiscal 2017. Performance measures and weightings vary by executive:
- CEO (Stonestreet): Net income (40%), efficiency ratio (20%), total loans (20%), and subjective assessment (20%).
- CBO (Westbrook): Net income (30%), efficiency ratio (15%), total loans (15%), and subjective assessment (40%).
- Other Executives: Net income (35%), efficiency ratio (17.5%), total loans (17.5%), and functional team goals (30%).
Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the Company's actual operating earnings for fiscal 2017 to determine if the cash awards are payable.
- Review the Company's 2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan for specific terms regarding award funding and payout mechanics.
- Monitor future filings for the actual performance results against the established metrics (net income, efficiency ratio, total loans).
- Confirm the annual base salaries of the named executives to calculate the potential total cash award values.
