NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Statement Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements are not included herein. The interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of Birmingham Bloomfield Bancshares, Inc. (the “Corporation”) and the notes thereto included in the Corporation’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

All adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which in the opinion of management are necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows, have been made. The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Certain amounts in the prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiary the Bank of Birmingham (the “Bank”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Changes in Significant Accounting Policies

Comprehensive Income – In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05 “Presentation of Comprehensive Income”. This standard requires an entity to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but continuous statements. This standard eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of equity. This standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods with those years beginning after December 15, 2011. The implementation of this standard will only change the presentation of comprehensive income; it will not have an impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. This guidance was adopted in the first quarter of 2012 with no impact to the financial statements.

As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, all securities are classified as available for sale excluding the FHLB stock. Unrealized gains and losses within the investment portfolio are determined to be temporary. The Bank has performed an analysis of the portfolio for other than temporary impairment and concluded no losses are required to be recognized. Management has no specific intent to sell any securities and it is not more likely than not the Bank will be required to sell any securities before recovery of the cost basis. Management expects to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the security. The Corporation had no securities with unrealized losses at June 30, 2012 and a total of $6,000 in gross unrealized losses related to three individual securities at December 31, 2011.

Note 3 – Loans – continued

 

Management uses a loan rating system to identify the inherent risk associated with portfolio loans. Loan ratings are based on a subjective definition that describes the conditions present at each level of risk and identifies the important aspect of each loan. The Bank currently uses a 1 to 8 grading scale for commercial loans. Each loan grade corresponds to a specific qualitative classification. All other consumer and mortgage loan types are not graded using the risk rating scale but are internally rated based on various credit quality characteristics using the same qualitative classification. The risk rating classifications included: pass, special mention, substandard, doubtful and loss.

Loans risk-rated as special mention are considered criticized loans, exhibiting some potential credit weakness that requires additional attention by management and are maintained on the internal watch list and monitored on a regular basis. Loans risk-rated as substandard or higher are considered classified loans exhibiting well-defined credit weakness and are recorded on the problem loan list and evaluated more frequently. The Bank’s credit administration function is designed to provide increased information on all types of loans to identify adverse credit risk characteristics in a timely manner. Total criticized and classified loans increased to $16,024,000 at June 30, 2012 from $13,821,000 at December 31, 2011. The increase is isolated to commercial loans and is the result of deterioration in specific credits identified by Credit Administration. The general condition of the portfolio remains strong. The Bank has no loans in non-accrual status. There were no loans that were risk rated doubtful or loss at June 30, 2012 or December 31, 2011. Management closely monitors each loan adversely criticized or classified and institutes appropriate measures to eliminate the basis of criticism.

The primary risk elements considered by management regarding each consumer and residential real estate loan are lack of timely payment and loss of real estate values. Management has a reporting system that monitors past due loans and has adopted policies to pursue its creditor’s rights in order to preserve the Bank’s position. The primary risk elements concerning commercial and industrial loans and commercial real estate loans are the financial condition of the borrower, the sufficiency of collateral, and lack of timely payment. Management has a policy of requesting and reviewing periodic financial reporting from its commercial loan customers and verifies existence of collateral and its value.

A loan is considered a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) if the Bank for economic or legal reasons related to the borrower’s financial condition grants a concession to the debtor that the Bank would not otherwise consider. TDRs represent loans where the original terms of the agreement have been modified to provide relief to the borrower and are individually evaluated for impairment. The loans continue to perform according to the modified contractual terms.

Note 3 – Loans – continued

 

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Corporation will be unable to collect all principal and interest payments according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Characteristics considered by management in determining impairment include delinquency status, collateral value, and known factors adversely affecting the ability of the borrower to satisfy the terms of the agreement. When an individual loan is classified as impaired, the Corporation measures impairment using (1) the present value of expected cash flows discounted at the loans effective interest rate, (2) the loans observable market price, or (3) the fair value of the collateral. The method used is determined on a loan by loan basis, except for a collateral dependent loan. All collateral dependent loans are required to be measured using the fair value of collateral method. If the value of an impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan an impairment reserve is recognized. All modified loans are considered impaired.

Large groups of homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, the Corporation does not separately identify individual consumer and residential loans for impairment disclosures, except if modified and considered to be a troubled debt restructuring.

As of June 30, 2012 there were no loans more than 30 days past due while at December 31, 2011 loans representing $4,000 were more than 30 days past due. There were no nonperforming loans, which represents non-accruing loans and loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest, at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011. Loans are placed in non-accrual status when, in the opinion of management, uncertainty exists as to the ultimate collection of principal and interest. Commercial loans are reported as being in non-accrual status if: (a) they are maintained on a cash basis because of deterioration in the financial position of the borrower, (b) payment in full of interest or principal is not expected, or (c) principal or interest has been in default for a period of 90 days or more. If it can be documented that the loan obligation is both well secured and in the process of collection, the loan may remain on accrual status. However, if the loan is not brought current before becoming 120 days past due, the loan is reported as non-accrual. A non-accrual asset may be restored to accrual status when none of its principal or interest is due and unpaid, when it otherwise becomes well secured, or is in the process of collection.

Note 7 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair value of a financial instrument is the current amount that would be exchanged between willing parties, other than in a forced liquidation. Fair value is best determined based upon quoted market prices. However, in many instances, there are no quoted market prices for the Corporation’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. FASB ASC 825 excludes certain financial instruments and all non-financial instruments from its disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented may not necessarily represent the underlying fair value of the Corporation.

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Corporation in estimating fair value disclosures for financial instruments:

Cash and Cash Equivalents – The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents approximate fair values.

Securities – Fair values of securities are based on quoted market prices. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities or other observable inputs.

Loans Receivable – For variable-rate loans that re-price frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values. Fair values for other loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. Fair values of nonperforming loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses or underlying collateral values, where applicable.

Deposit Liabilities – The fair values disclosed for demand deposits are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts). The carrying amounts of variable-rate, fixed-term money market accounts and certificates of deposit approximate their fair values at the reporting date. Fair values for fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits.

Accrued Interest – The carrying value of accrued interest approximates fair value.

Note 8 – Fair Value Accounting

Valuation Hierarchy

Accounting standards establish a three-level valuation hierarchy for fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy prioritizes valuation techniques based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date and are the primary method of valuation used by Birmingham Bloomfield Bancshares, Inc. 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 three levels are defined as follows.

 

   

Level 1 – inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets which the Corporation can participate.

 

   

Level 2 – inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and other inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

 

   

Level 3 – inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement, and include inputs that are available in situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the related asset or liability.

Following is a description of the inputs and valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis and recognized in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, as well as general classification of those instruments under the valuation hierarchy.

Available-for-sale Securities

Quoted market prices in an active market are used to value securities when such prices are available. Those securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. If quoted market prices are not available, the fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics, or discounted cash flows using reasonable inputs. Level 2 securities include U.S. Government agency securities, mortgage backed securities, obligations of states and municipalities, and certain corporate securities. Matrix pricing is a mathematical technique widely used in the banking industry to value investment securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for specific investment securities, but rather relying on the investment securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted investment securities. In certain cases where Level 1 or Level 2 inputs are not available, securities would be classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy.

The following table presents the fair value measurements of assets recognized in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the level within the valuation hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fall at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 (000s omitted):

Note 8 – Fair Value Accounting – continued

 

Following is a description of the inputs and valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis and recognized in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, as well as general classification of those instruments under the valuation hierarchy.

Impaired Loans

Loans for which it is probable the Corporation will not collect all principal and interest due according to the contractual terms are measured for impairment. The fair value of impaired loans is estimated using one of three methods; market value, collateral value, or discounted cash flow. Those impaired loans not requiring an allowance represent loans for which the fair value of collateral exceeds the recorded investment. When the fair value of the collateral is based on an observable market price or current appraised value, the impaired loan is classified within Level 2. When a market value is not available or management applies a discount factor to the appraised value, the Corporation records the impaired loan in Level 3.

Other Real Estate Owned (“ORE”)

Loans on which the underlying collateral has been repossessed are adjusted to fair value less costs to sell upon transfer to repossessed assets. Subsequently, repossessed assets are carried at the lower of carrying value or fair value, less anticipated marketing and selling costs. Fair value is based upon independent market prices, appraised values of the collateral or management’s estimation of the value of the collateral. When the fair value of the collateral is based on an observable market price or a current appraised value, the Company records the repossessed asset as a nonrecurring Level 2 valuation. When a market value is not available or management applies a discount factor to the appraised value, the Corporation records the repossessed asset in Level 3.

The following table presents the fair value measurements of assets recognized in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis and the level within the valuation hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fall at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 (000s omitted):

Note 9 – Minimum Regulatory Capital Requirements

Banks and bank holding companies are subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Capital adequacy guidelines and, additionally for banks, prompt corrective action regulations, involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off balance-sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators. Failure to meet capital requirements can initiate regulatory action. The prompt corrective action regulations provide four classifications, well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized and critically undercapitalized, although these terms are not used to represent overall financial condition. If adequately capitalized, regulatory approval is required to accept brokered deposits. If undercapitalized, capital distributions are limited, as is asset growth and expansion, and plans for capital restoration are required. The Bank was classified as well-capitalized as of June 30, 2012. For the period ended June 30, 2012, the Corporation qualifies for an exemption from regulatory capital requirements due to its asset size.

The Bank’s actual capital amounts and ratios as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 are presented in the following table (000s omitted):

Note 10 – Shareholders’ Equity

On July 28, 2011, the Corporation fully redeemed from the United States Treasury all of the Preferred Shares associated with the Capital Purchase Program for $3,461,000. The redemption was funded by proceeds from the issuance of Preferred Shares to the U.S. Treasury under the Small Business Lending Fund totaling $4,621,000. As a result of the transaction, the Corporation recorded $46,000 in accelerated accretion on the remaining discount of the Capital Purchase Program Preferred stock during the third quarter of 2011, reducing the amount available to common shareholders.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

OVERVIEW

The Corporation is a Michigan corporation that was incorporated in 2004 to serve as the holding company for a Michigan state bank, Bank of Birmingham (“the Bank”). The Bank is a full service commercial bank headquartered in Birmingham, Michigan. The Bank serves businesses and consumers across Oakland and Macomb counties with a full range of lending, deposit and internet banking services. The net income of the Corporation is derived primarily from net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between interest earned on the Bank’s loan and investment portfolios and the interest paid on deposits and borrowings. The volume, mix and rate of interest-bearing assets and liabilities determine net interest income.

OPERATIONS

The Corporation’s (and the Bank’s) main office is located at 33583 Woodward Avenue, Birmingham, MI 48009. The building is a free-standing one story office building of approximately 8,300 square feet. The main office lease commenced in October 2005 and the Bank exercised its first renewal option resulting in the lease being extended until October 2025. The main office lease has an additional ten year renewal option. See Note 6 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements regarding additional lease information.

The Bank will continue to focus on the lending, deposit and general banking needs in the community it serves. The profile of products available to customers continues to expand as the Bank offers more options for residential mortgage and commercial customers, including SBA products. The Bank will investigate additional product and service offerings and will consider providing those that will be of benefit to our customers and the Bank.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

The Corporation reported net income applicable to common shareholders of $208,000 or $0.11 per common share for the three month period ended June 30, 2012 compared to net income of $261,000 or $0.15 per common share for the second quarter of 2011. For the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, net income applicable to common stock was $544,000 or $0.30 per share and $676,000 or $0.38 per share, respectively. The results for 2012 include the impact of recognizing tax expense not previously required. Excluding the effect of income tax expense of $111,000 for the three month period ended June 30, 2012, pre-tax net income before preferred dividends was $341,000, an increase of 10.0% from the second quarter of 2011. Pre-tax, pre-provision net income for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $860,000, an increase of $88,000 or 11.4%. The improved performance for the three and six month period was the result of higher margins and earning asset growth. This generated a pre-tax, pre-provision return on average assets of 1.17% and 1.43%, respectively, for the three and six month periods.

Total assets as of June 30, 2012 were $139,851,000, an increase $15,454,000 from December 31, 2011 and 17.9% from the second quarter of 2011. The growth was primarily the result of an increase in loan and deposit balances. The Company continues to focus on providing a broad range of product and services to generate core, organic growth.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents increased $12,421,000 to $17,115,000 at June 30, 2012. The increase was primarily the result of deposit growth and a strategic objective to maintain additional liquidity.

Table of Contents

Investments

Total investments decreased $663,000 to $3,932,000 during the six month period ended June 30, 2012. The net reduction was the result of principal payments received on mortgage backed securities and the retirement of two U.S. Government agency securities totaling $1.5 million. The Corporation used the proceeds from the called securities to purchase additional investments totaling $1.0 million and fund new loan activity. The Corporation did not hold any held-to-maturity securities as of June 30, 2012 or December 31, 2011. The makeup of the Corporation’s investment portfolio evolves with the changing price and risk structure, and liquidity needs of the Corporation.

Management believes that the unrealized gains and losses within the investment portfolio are temporary, since they are a result of market changes, rather than a reflection of credit quality. Management has no specific intent to sell any securities, although the entire investment portfolio is classified as available for sale. The following chart summaries the portfolio by type at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 (000s omitted):

Total portfolio loans increased during the first six months of 2012 to $113,074,000. The growth during the quarter was concentrated in Real Estate Mortgage and Commercial and Industrial loans. The increase was due to focused business development efforts in generating new loan activity and expanding existing relationships. The other loan categories experienced declines as result of scheduled amortization of the portfolio, maturities and principal reduction payments.

The allowance for loan losses increased $70,000 to $1,644,000, representing 1.45% of total loans at June 30, 2012. The increase was a combined result of a net increase in specific reserves on impaired loans and portfolio growth. There were no charge-offs or recoveries recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 and the Corporation did not have any nonperforming loans outstanding during the periods presented.

Management evaluates the condition of the loan portfolio on a quarterly basis or more frequently when warranted, to determine the adequacy of the allowance for loans losses. The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level believed to be adequate to cover losses on individually evaluated loans that are determined to be impaired and on groups of loans with similar risk characteristics that are collectively evaluated for impairment. Estimated credits losses represent the current amount of the loan portfolio that is probable the institution will be unable to collect given the facts and circumstances as of the evaluation date. Management’s evaluation of the allowance is based on consideration of actual loss experience, the present and prospective financial condition of borrowers, adequacy of collateral, industry concentrations within the portfolio, various environmental factors and general economic conditions. Loans individually evaluated for impairment are measured using one of the three standard methods and provided a specific allowance. Management believes that the present allowance is adequate given the size, complexity and risk profile of the current portfolio.

Table of Contents

Although management believes that the allowance for credit losses is adequate to absorb losses as they arise, there can be no assurance that the Bank will not sustain losses in any given period that could be substantial in relation to the size of the allowance for credit losses. It must be understood that inherent risks and uncertainties related to the operation of a financial institution require management to depend on estimates, appraisals and evaluations of loans to prepare the Corporation’s financial statements. Changes in economic conditions and the financial prospects of borrowers may result in changes to the estimates, appraisals and evaluations used. In addition, if circumstances and losses differ substantially from management’s assumptions and estimates, the allowance for loan losses may not be sufficient to absorb all future losses and net income could be adversely impacted.

Premises and Equipment

Premises and equipment was $1,327,000 as of June 30, 2012 down from $1,395,000 as of December 31, 2011. The Corporation expects to support further growth of business lines with investments in operating facilities and technology.

Deposits and Short-term Financing

Total deposits increased 13.9% during the first half of 2012 totaling $122,650,000 as the Corporation continues to grow the organization and fund new loan activity. The categories experiencing the largest increase were Brokered deposits, Money Market and NOW accounts. Brokered deposits are a new source of funding for the Corporation and are generated using a third party service provider. The Corporation added $11,230,000 in this category and use the funding to manage interest rate risk and replace maturing time deposits. Money Market and NOW accounts increased $3,713,000 and $1,711,000, respectively during the six months ended June 30, 2012 as the Corporation expands existing relationships and attracts new customers. The category experiencing the largest decline during the period was Time deposits as the Corporation reduced participation in an on-line marketing service to acquire wholesale CD’s. This was an intentional strategy by management to extend the maturity duration of the portfolio in a more cost effective manner utilizing the brokered market.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Corporation reported net income applicable to common shareholders of $208,000 for the second quarter of 2012 compared to $261,000 for the same period of 2011. The reduction in earnings is directly related to the recognition of income tax expense totaling $111,000 during the period. This is the first year the Corporation was required to realize an income tax liability. Refer to the Incomes Taxes section for further discussion. Excluding the impact of income taxes, net income before preferred dividends was $341,000 for the period ended June 30, 2012, a 10.4% increase from the second quarter of 2011. The increase in pre-tax earnings was the result of improved margins and an increase in total earning assets. Net interest margin for the current period was 4.91% compared to 4.51% for the second quarter of 2011 and 4.80% for the most recent linked quarter. This was achieved by improving the asset mix of the balance sheet and reducing total funding costs. Total non-interest income for the three month period ended June 30, 2012 was $112,000, a decrease of $168,000 from the same period of 2011. The decrease was the result of a reduction in SBA loan income and mortgage banking activities. Provision expense totaled $50,000 during the period, an increase of $35,000 from the second quarter of 2011. The increase is related to the increase in total specific reserves and loan growth. Total non-interest expense for the second quarter of 2012 was $1,216,000, an increase of $9,000 from the same period in 2011.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income for the three month period ended June 30, 2012 totaled $1,496,000, an increase of 19.6% compared to the same period of the prior year. The increase was a result of earning asset growth and a reduction in total funding costs. The earning asset growth was concentrated in loan volume, providing the largest benefit to interest income. Total average interest bearing liabilities increased $6,019,000 in the second quarter of 2012 relative to the second quarter of 2011 but total related interest expenses decreased $91,000. The lower cost of funds was achieved by changes in pricing strategy and improved mix of the portfolio.

The Corporation’s net interest margin increased 40 basis points to 4.91% for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 compared to 4.51% for the same period in 2011. Net interest spread, the difference between the yield on earning assets and cost of funds, also increased relative to the second quarter of 2011. The increase in both spread and margin is the result of an improved mix and a reduction in deposit costs. Asset yields declined during the period due to a reduction in loan and investment rates but a more favorable mix mitigated the impact. Total cost of funds for the second quarter of 2012 was 0.93% compared to 1.39% for the same period of 2011. This was accomplished as a result of an effective pricing strategy implemented by management and access to other funding options.

The following table presents the Corporation’s consolidated average balances of interest-earning assets, interest-bearing liabilities, and the amount of interest income or interest expense attributable to each category, the average yield or rate for each category, and the net interest margin for the periods ended June 30, 2012, and 2011 (000s omitted). Average loans are presented net of unearned income and the allowance for loan and lease losses. Interest on loans includes loan fees.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income for the six month period ended June 30, 2012 totaled $2,889,000, an increase of 15.1% compared to the same period of the prior year. The increase was a result of earning asset growth and a reduction in total funding costs. The majority of the earning asset growth was concentrated in the loan portfolio. Total average interest bearing deposit accounts increased $3,147,000 in the first six months of 2012 relative to the first six months of 2011 but total deposit related interest expenses decreased $192,000. The lower cost of funds was achieved by changes in pricing strategy and improved mix of the portfolio.

The Corporation’s net interest margin increased 36 basis points to 4.86% for the six month period ended June 30, 2012 compared to 4.50% for the same period in 2011. Net interest spread, the difference between the yield on earning assets and cost of funds, also increased relative to the same period of 2011. The increase in both spread and margin is the result of an improved mix and a reduction in deposit costs. Asset yields declined during the period due to a reduction in loan and investment rates but a more favorable mix mitigated the impact. Total cost of funds for the first six months of 2012 was 0.97% compared to 1.44% for the same period of 2011. This was accomplished as a result of an effective pricing strategy implemented by management, access to other funding options and increased non-interest bearing deposits.

The following table presents the Corporation’s consolidated average balances of interest-earning assets, interest-bearing liabilities, and the amount of interest income or interest expense attributable to each category, the average yield or rate for each category, and the net interest margin for the six month periods ended June 30, 2012, and 2011 (000s omitted). Average loans are presented net of unearned income and the allowance for loan and lease losses. Interest on loans includes loan fees.

Provision for Loans Losses

The provision for loan losses was $50,000 and $15,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The increase from the previous comparable period was due to an increase in total specific reserves and loan growth. The Corporation recorded no charge offs or recoveries during the periods ended June 30, 2012 and June 30, 2011.

The provision for loan losses was $70,000 and $54,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The increase relative to the prior period was the result of an increase in specific reserves on impaired loans and new portfolio activity. The Corporation recorded no charge offs or recoveries during the six month periods ended June 30, 2012 and June 30, 2011.

Non-Interest Income

The Corporation reported non-interest income of $112,000 and $280,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Non-interest income decreased as a result of lower SBA loan sales and reduced volume with mortgage banking activities. Service charge income totaled $20,000, an increase of $8,000 relative to the second quarter of 2011 as a result of growth in deposit services and pricing changes. Other income increased $19,000 to $30,000 during the period as the Corporation recognized income from bank-owned life insurance purchased in December of 2011.

Non-interest income was $596,000 and $605,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The decrease in non-interest income was primarily the result of lower SBA loan sales during 2012. The reduction in revenue was offset by additional income from residential mortgage activity and additional other income. Service charge income increased $15,000 to $39,000 as a result of pricing changes and additional deposit account activity. Mortgage banking activities income increased to $197,000 due to additional volume. Other income increased by $189,000 as a result of the gain on sale of a foreclosed property and income from bank-owned life insurance

Non-Interest Expense

Non-interest expense for the three month period ended June 30, 2012 was $1,216,000, relatively flat from the second quarter of 2011. The largest component of non-interest expense is Salaries and Benefits, totaling $640,000 for the current period compared $643,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. Occupancy expense declined $11,000, or 8.5%, as the Corporation no longer maintained mortgage lending production facilities. Equipment expense increased relative to the same period of the prior year as the Corporation invested in fixed assets and system applications to improve services. The Corporation continues to dedicate resources to business marketing efforts to improve franchise recognition; this is reflected in the increase in Advertising costs reported during the period relative to the prior year. Professional fees increased by 9.1% to $159,000 to support the increase in the Corporation’s size and complexity. Loan origination expenses increased $15,000 during the period relative to the prior year as the Corporation experienced growth in portfolio loans and increased volume in residential mortgage activities. Regulatory assessments declined $10,000 for the three month period ended June 30, 2012 due to a reduction in insurance rates and change in the assessment base. Other expenses totaled $83,000 for the second quarter of 2012, a decrease of $5,000 compared to the same period of 2011.

Non-interest expense for the six month period ended June 30, 2012 was $2,555,000, an increase of $265,000 from the first quarter of 2011. This was the result of additional expenses associated with new employees, increased loan origination activity and growth of the organization. Salaries and benefits represents the largest percentage of non-interest expense totaling $1.4 million during the first six months of 2012, an increase of $176,000 from 2011. The increase is a result of additional staff and merit raises for employees. Occupancy expense declined $9,000 as the Corporation eliminated mortgage lending production facilities. Equipment and Data Processing expenses increased relative to the same period of the prior year as the Company adds new products and services, and expands the existing infrastructure. Advertising expenses increased $9,000 during the

first six months of 2012 as the Corporation continues to focus on developing brand awareness and supporting the local community. Loan origination expense was $107,000 for the period, an increase of $58,000. This additional cost is directly related to an increase in loan volume. Professional fees increased by 7.3% to $276,000 as a result of additional legal fees and costs associated with engaging market professionals to assist the Corporation with strategic objectives. Regulatory assessments declined $33,000 for the six month period ended June 30, 2012 due to a reduction in insurance rates and change in the assessment base. Other expenses totaled $178,000 for the second quarter of 2012, an increase of $14,000 compared to the same period of 2011. The additional costs are a reflection of the increase in operating costs associated with the growth of the institution and expansion of product services.

Income Taxes

The Corporation recorded federal income tax expense of $111,000 for the three month period ended June 30, 2012. A tax liability of $111,000 was realized for the second quarter of 2011 with a corresponding reduction in the Deferred Tax Asset valuation reserve resulting in no income tax expense being reported for the second quarter of June 30, 2011.

The Corporation recorded federal income tax expense of $283,000 for the six month period ended June 30, 2012. A tax liability of $276,000 was realized for the second six months of 2011 with a corresponding reduction in the Deferred Tax Asset valuation reserve resulting in no income tax expense being reported for the second six months of June 30, 2011.

The deferred tax asset “DTA” balance represents the aggregate tax effect of all deductible temporary differences and operating loss carry-forwards. DTA’s are recorded when an event generating a tax benefit has been recognized in the financial statements and is measured using the applicable tax rate. When it is more likely than not a portion or all of the DTA will not be realized a valuation reserve is required. The objective of the reserve is to reduce the DTA balance to an amount that is likely to be recognized. The requirement for a valuation reserve on a “DTA” is based on an analysis of all existing evidence, both positive and negative.

Since inception, the Corporation established a reserve on the full amount of the outstanding DTA balance. The reserve was maintained based on the Corporation’s cumulative losses and concern regarding the ability of the organization to realize the full benefit of the asset. In December 2011, as a result of improved earnings, positive performance trends and financial projections demonstrating sustainable profitability, management determined there was sufficient evidence the Corporation would be able to recognize the full benefit of the entire DTA balance and eliminated the valuation reserve of $2,884,000. The Corporation’s deferred tax asset (“DTA”) is included in other assets on the balance sheet. During the last quarter of 2011, management performed an evaluation of the ability of the Corporation to utilize the benefit of the DTA balance and determined no reserve was required. As of June 30, 2011, the Corporation had a valuation reserve for the entire balance of the DTA balance.

The Corporation has net operating loss carry-forwards of approximately $4,652,000 that are available to reduce future taxable income. The carry-forwards begin to expire twenty years from date of origination.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES; ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT

The management team has responsibility for developing and recommending liquidity and risk management policies including but not limited to the determination of internal operating guidelines, contingency plans, change management and pricing to the Asset/Liability Committee (ALCO) of the Board of Directors. Management ensures that the liquidity of a bank allows it to provide funds to meet its cash flow needs, such as loan requests, outflows of deposits, other investment opportunities and general operating requirements, under multiple operating scenarios. While the current structure of the Corporation and the Bank are not complex, the objective in the management of liquidity and capital resources is to be able to take advantage of business opportunities that may arise. The major sources of liquidity for the Bank have been deposit growth, federal funds sold, and loans which mature within one year. The Bank is also a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis and has access to funding from the discount window at the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago. The ALCO committee has also approved alternate funding sources to add flexibility. Large deposit balances which might fluctuate in response to interest rate changes are closely monitored. These deposits consist mainly of certificates of deposit over $100,000. We anticipate that we will have more than sufficient funds available to meet our future commitments. As of June 30, 2012, off balance sheet loan commitments totaled $27,320,000. As a majority of the unused commitments represent commercial and equity lines of credit, the Bank expects, and experience has shown, that only a small portion of the unused commitments will normally be drawn upon.

Commitments to grant loans are governed by the Corporation’s credit underwriting standards, as established in the Corporation’s Loan Policy. As the above schedule illustrates, in general, it is the Corporation’s practice to grant loan commitments for a finite period of time, usually lasting one year or less. The most significant departure from this practice involves home equity lines of credit (HELOCs). The Corporation’s equity lines have a contractual draw period exceeding 5 years. The Corporation has the ability to suspend the draw privileges on a HELOC where a default situation or other impairment issue is identified.

The largest sources of cash and cash equivalents for the Corporation for the three months ended June 30, 2012, as noted in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, were primarily loan sales and deposit origination.

Banks and bank holding companies are subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Capital adequacy guidelines and, additionally for banks, prompt corrective action regulations, involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators. Failure to meet capital requirements can initiate regulatory action. The prompt corrective action regulations provide five classifications, well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized and critically undercapitalized, although these terms are not used to represent overall financial condition. If adequately capitalized, regulatory approval is required to accept brokered deposits. If undercapitalized, capital distributions are limited, as is asset growth and expansion, and plans for capital restoration are required. The Bank was well-capitalized as of June 30, 2012. Note 9 to the financial statements is hereby incorporated by reference. At June 30, 2012, the Corporation qualifies for an exemption from regulatory capital requirements due to its asset size.

On July 28, 2011, Birmingham Bloomfield Bancshares, Inc. entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with the Secretary of the Treasury (the “Treasury”), pursuant to which the Company issued and sold to the Treasury 4,621 shares of its Senior Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series D (“Series D Preferred Stock”), having a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share (the “Liquidation Amount”), for aggregate proceeds of $4,621,000. In conjunction with the issuance of the Series D Preferred Stock, the Company has redeemed from the Treasury for $3,461,000, all of the Series A Preferred Shares, Series B Preferred Shares, and Series C Preferred Shares which were issued to the Treasury in 2009 under the Treasury’s Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 Capital Purchase Program.

The Series D Preferred Stock is entitled to receive non-cumulative dividends payable quarterly, on each January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1, beginning October 1, 2011. The dividend rate, which is calculated on the aggregate Liquidation Amount, is based upon the current level of “Qualified Small Business Lending”, or “QSBL” (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) by the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary Bank of Birmingham (the “Bank”). The dividend rate for future dividend periods will be set based upon the “Percentage Change in Qualified Lending” (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) between each dividend period and the “Baseline” QSBL level. Such dividend rate may vary from 1% per annum to 5% per annum for the second through tenth dividend periods, from 1% per annum to 7% per annum for the eleventh dividend period through year four and one-half. If the Series D Preferred Stock remains outstanding for more than four and one-half years, the dividend rate will be fixed at 9%. Prior to that time, in general, the dividend rate decreases as the level of the Bank’s QSBL increases. Such dividends are not cumulative, but the Company may only declare and pay dividends on its common stock (or any other equity securities junior to the Series D Preferred Stock) if it has declared and paid dividends for the current dividend period on the Series D Preferred Stock, and will be subject to other restrictions on its ability to repurchase or redeem other securities.

Managing rates on earning assets and interest bearing liabilities focuses on maintaining stability in the net interest margin, an important factor in earnings growth and stability. Emphasis is placed on maintaining a controlled rate sensitivity position to avoid wide swings in margins and to manage risk due to changes in interest rates. Some of the major areas of focus of the Corporation’s Asset Liability Committee (“ALCO”) incorporate the following overview functions: review the interest rate risk sensitivity of the Bank to measure the impact of changing interest rates on the Bank’s net interest income, review the liquidity position through various measurements, review current and projected economic conditions and the corresponding impact on the Bank, ensure that capital and adequacy of the allowance for loan losses are maintained at proper levels to sustain growth, monitor the investment portfolio, recommend policies and strategies to the Board that incorporate a better balance of our interest rate risk, liquidity, balance sheet mix and yield management, and review the current balance sheet mix and proactively determine the future product mix.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Corporation’s primary market risk exposure is interest rate risk and liquidity risk. All of the Corporation’s transactions are denominated in U.S. dollars with no specific foreign exchange exposure. Any impacts that changes in foreign exchange rates would have on interest rates are assumed to be insignificant.

Interest rate risk (IRR) is the exposure of a banking organization’s financial condition to adverse movements in interest rates. Accepting this risk can be an important source of profitability and shareholder value; however, excessive levels of IRR could pose a significant threat to our earnings and capital base. Accordingly, effective risk management that maintains IRR at prudent levels is essential to the Corporation’s safety and soundness. The Board of Directors has instituted a policy setting limits on the amount of interest rate risk that may be assumed. Management provides information to the Board of Directors on a quarterly basis detailing interest rate risk estimates and activities to control such risk.

Evaluating a financial institution’s exposure to changes in interest rates includes assessing both the adequacy of the management process used to control IRR and the organization’s quantitative level of exposure. When assessing the IRR management process, the Corporation seeks to ensure that appropriate policies, procedures, management information systems and internal controls are in place to maintain IRR at prudent levels with consistency and continuity. Evaluating the quantitative level of IRR exposure requires the Corporation to assess the existing and potential future effects of changes in interest rates on its consolidated financial condition, including capital adequacy, earnings, liquidity, and, where appropriate, asset quality. This detailed analysis is performed on a quarterly basis, but is managed daily. The Bank continues to be in a liability sensitive position and management continues to work toward creating a more closely matched portfolio to minimize any potential impact that changing rates could have on earnings in the short term. The institution is well positioned to minimize the impact of rate changes, with the rate shock analysis showing that over the long term, rate changes pose only a minimal risk to our economic value of equity (EVE ratio).

The Corporation has not experienced a material change in its financial instruments that are sensitive to changes in interest rates since December 31, 2011, which information can be located in the Corporation’s annual report on Form 10-K.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of June 30, 2012, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Corporation’s management, including the Corporation’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Corporation’s “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined under Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e).

Based on this evaluation, the Corporation’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2012, such disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and accumulated and communicated to the Corporation’s management, including the Corporation’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, the Corporation’s management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives and in reaching a reasonable level of assurance. The Corporation’s management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

There were no changes in the Corporation’s internal controls over financial reporting during the period ended June 30, 2012 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Corporation’s internal controls over financial reporting.
