MALVERN, Pa., May 17, 2019
MALVERN, Pa., May 17, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Meridian Corporation ("Meridian"), (NASDAQ: MRBK), the parent company for Meridian Bank (the "Bank"), today announced that it has filed a notice of late filing with respect to its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, as it needs additional time to evaluate whether there is a need to make certain accounting adjustments related to licensing of mortgage lending in Maryland by the mortgage division of the Bank. This licensing matter relates to approximately 400 loans over the past eight years. Of the 400 loans, 300 appear to remain outstanding.
"We delayed filing our first quarter 2019 financial results when we determined that our mortgage operations were not fully compliant with Maryland licensing law," said Christopher J. Annas, President and CEO. "Of our over $5 billion in mortgage loans originated over the past eight years, approximately $98 million were mortgage loans made to Maryland residents. We have adjusted our lending process to not originate mortgage loans in Maryland until appropriate licenses have been obtained. In addition, our first quarter financials will include a $12,000 fine paid to the state, and the reimbursement to consumers of approximately $475,000 in interest and fees which are reflected in current and prior periods."
As a result of this matter, Meridian requires additional time to finalize the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, and is working to complete the preparation of its consolidated financial statements for the quarter, as soon as practicable.
