SELECTED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 - Nature of Business

Anchor Bancorp (the “Company”), a Washington corporation, was formed in connection with the conversion of Anchor Mutual Savings Bank (the “Bank”) from the mutual to the stock form of organization. On January 25, 2011, the Bank completed its conversion from mutual to stock form, changed its name to “Anchor Bank” and became the wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Since the Bank’s conversion and the Company’s stock offering were consummated on January 25, 2011, the information contained in this document before that date, pertain to the operations of the Bank. (See Note 3 of these Selected Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements), which was completed on January 25, 2011.

Anchor Bank is a community-based savings bank primarily serving Western Washington through its 13 full-service bank offices (including three Wal-Mart store locations) and one loan production office located within Grays Harbor, Thurston, Lewis, Pierce, and Mason counties, Washington. Anchor Bank’s business consists of attracting deposits from the public and utilizing those deposits to originate loans.

Note 2 - Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented have been included. It is recommended that these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2011 (“2011 Form 10-K”).  The results of operations for the three and six months ended December 31, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year ending June 30, 2012. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current fiscal year presentation. The reclassifications had no impact on previously reported net income (loss) or equity.

Note 3 - Conversion and Change in Corporate Form

On January 25, 2011, in accordance with a Plan of Conversion (“Plan”) adopted by its Board of Directors and as approved by its depositors and borrower members, Anchor Mutual Savings Bank (i) converted from a mutual savings bank to a stock savings bank, (ii) changed its name to “Anchor Bank”, and (iii) became the wholly-owned subsidiary of Anchor Bancorp, a bank holding company registered with the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. In connection with the conversion, the Company issued an aggregate of 2,550,000 shares of common stock at an offering price of $10.00 per share for gross proceeds of $25.5 million. The cost of conversion and the issuance of capital stock was approximately $2.3 million, which was deducted from the proceeds of the offering.

Pursuant to the Plan, the Company formed an employee stock ownership plan (“ESOP”), which subscribed for 4% of the common stock sold in the offering or 102,000 shares. As provided for in the Plan, the Bank established a liquidation account in the amount of retained earnings as of June 30, 2010. The liquidation account is maintained for the benefits of eligible savings account holders as of June 30, 2007 and supplemental eligible account holders as of September 30, 2010 who maintain deposit accounts in the Bank after conversion. The conversion was accounted for as a change in corporate form with the historic basis of the Bank’s assets, liabilities, and equity unchanged as a result.

Note 4 - Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In  January 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-01, Deferral of the Effective Date of Disclosures about Troubled Debt Restructurings in Update No. 2010-20. This ASU temporarily delays the effective date of the disclosures about troubled debt restructurings in update 2010-20 for public entities. The delay is intended to allow FASB and ASU time to complete its deliberations on what constitutes a troubled debt restructuring. The effective date of the new disclosures about troubled debt restructurings for public entities and the guidance for determining what constitutes a troubled debt restructuring will then be coordinated. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2011. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or results of operations.

In April 2011, FASB issued ASU No. 2011-02, A Creditor’s Determination of Whether a Restructuring is a Troubled Debt Restructuring. This update provides additional guidance relating to when creditors should classify loan modifications as troubled debt restructurings. This ASU also ends the deferral issued in January 2010 of the disclosures about troubled debt restructurings required by ASU No. 2010-20. The provisions of ASU No. 2011-02 and the disclosure requirements of ASU No. 2010-20 are effective for the Company’s interim reporting period ended September 30, 2011. The guidance applies retrospectively to restructurings occurring on or after July 1, 2011. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or results of operations.

In April 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-03, Reconsideration of Effective Control for Repurchase Agreements. This update amends existing guidance to remove from the assessment of effective control, the criterion requiring the transferor to have the ability to repurchase or redeem the financial assets on substantially the agreed terms, even in the event of default by the transferee and, as well, the collateral maintenance implementation guidance related to that criterion. ASU No. 2011-03 is effective for the Company’s reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2011. The guidance applies prospectively to transactions or modification of existing transactions that occur on or after the effective date and early adoption is not permitted. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or results of operations.

In April 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. This update amends existing guidance regarding the highest and best use and valuation premise by clarifying these concepts are only applicable to measuring the fair value of nonfinancial assets. The update also clarifies that the fair value measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities, which have offsetting market risks or counterparty credit risks that are managed on a portfolio basis, when several criteria are met, can be measured at the net risk position. Additional disclosures about Level 3 fair value measurements are required including a quantitative disclosure of the unobservable inputs and assumptions used in the measurement, a description of the valuation process in place, and discussion of the sensitivity of fair value changes in unobservable inputs and interrelationships about those inputs, as well as disclosure of the level of the fair value of items that are not measured at fair value in the financial statements but disclosure of fair value is required.

The provisions of ASU No. 2011-04 are effective for the Company’s reporting period beginning after December 15, 2011 and should be applied prospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU and does not expect it to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or results of operations.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income. The update amends current guidance to allow a company the option of presenting 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 consecutive statements. The provisions do not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive must to reclassified to net income. The amendments do not change the option for a company to present components of other comprehensive income either net of related tax effects or before related tax effects, with one amount shown for the aggregate income tax expense (benefit) related to the total of other comprehensive income items. The amendments do not affect how earnings per share is calculated or presented. The provisions of ASU No. 2011-05 are effective for the Company’s reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and should be applied retrospectively. Early

adoption is permitted although the Company has not yet adopted this ASU and there are no required transition disclosures. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or results of operations.

In September 2011, FASB issued ASU 2011-08, “Testing Goodwill for Impairment” (“ASU 2011-08”). ASU 2011-08 amends Topic 350, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other”, to simplify how entities, both public and nonpublic, test goodwill for impairment. The amendments in ASU 2011-08 permit an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test described in Topic 350. The more-likely-than-not threshold is defined as having a likelihood of more than 50 percent. Previous guidance under Topic 350 required an entity to test goodwill for impairment, on at least an annual basis, by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill (step one). If the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then the second step of the test must be performed to measure the amount of the impairment loss, if any. Under the amendments in this Update, an entity is not required to calculate the fair value of a reporting unit unless the entity determines that it is more likely than not that its fair value is less than its carrying amount. This ASU is effective for the Company’s financial statements for annual and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2011, and must be applied prospectively. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In September 2011, FASB issued ASU 2011-09, “Compensation-Retirement Benefits-Multiemployer Plans”.  The current recognition and measurement guidance for an employer’s participation in a multiemployer plan requires that an employer recognize its required contribution to the plan as pension or other postretirement benefit cost for the period and recognize a liability for any contributions due at the reporting date.  That guidance is unchanged by these amendments.  Furthermore, the amendments do not change the requirement that an employer apply the recognition, measurement, and disclosure provisions for contingencies in Topic 450 if an obligation due to withdrawal from a multiemployer plan is either probable (accrue a liability and disclose the contingency) or reasonably possible (disclose the contingency).  For public entities, the amendments in this update are effective for annual periods for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted.  The amendments should be applied retrospectively for all prior periods presented.  The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In December 2011, FASB issued ASU 2011-10, Derecognition of in Substance Real Estate - a Scope Clarification (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). Under the ASU, a reporting entity that ceases to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary that is in substance real estate as a result of default on the subsidiary's nonrecourse debt would apply FASB ASC Subtopic 360-20, Property, Plant, and Equipment - Real Estate Sales, to determine whether to derecognize assets and liabilities of that subsidiary. For a public entity, the ASU is effective prospectively for a deconsolidation event that takes place in fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after June 15, 2012.  The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In December 2011, FASB issued ASU 2011-11, Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities, in conjunction with the International Accounting Standard Board’s (“IASB”) issuance of amendments to Disclosures - Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (Amendments to International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”)7) . While the boards retained the existing offsetting models under U.S. GAAP and IFRS, the new standards require disclosures to allow investors to better compare financial statements prepared under U.S. GAAP with financial statements prepared under IFRS. The new standards are effective for annual periods beginning January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. Retrospective application is required.  The amendments in this update will enhance disclosures required by U.S. GAAP by requiring improved information about financial instruments and derivative instruments that are either (1) offset in accordance with either Section 210-20-45 or Section 815-10-45 or (2) subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement, irrespective of whether they are offset in accordance with either Section 210-20-45 or Section 815-10-45. This information will enable users of an entity’s financial statements to evaluate the effect or potential effect of netting arrangements on an entity’s financial position, including the effect or potential effect of rights of setoff associated with certain financial instruments and derivative instruments in the scope of this update.  The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Note 5 -Regulatory Order, Economic Environment, and Management’s Plans
 
On August 12, 2009, the Bank entered into a Stipulation and Consent to the Issuance of an Order to Cease and Desist (the “Order”) with the FDIC and the Washington Department of Financial Institutions (“DFI”). The FDIC and DFI determined that the Bank had engaged in unsafe or unsound the banking practices. Under the terms of the Order, the Bank cannot declare dividends without the prior written approval of the FDIC and the DFI. Other material provisions of the Order require the Bank to: (i) maintain Tier 1 capital in an amount equal to or exceeding 10% of Anchor Bank's total assets and a liquidity ratio of 15% (ii) reduce the assets classified as substandard and/or doubtful as a percent of capital to not more than 30% and (iii) prepare and submit progress reports to the FDIC and DFI. The Order will remain in effect until modified or terminated by the FDIC and the DFI. The Bank has been actively engaged in responding to the concerns raised by the Order and was in compliance with the required capital, liquidity and classified assets ratios at December 31, 2011.   Management believes the Bank is taking appropriate steps to comply with the other requirements of the Order. For additional information regarding the Order, see Item 1A, Risk Factors, “We are subject to increased regulatory scrutiny and are subject to certain business limitations. Further, we may be subject to more severe future regulatory enforcement actions if our financial condition or performance weakens further.” in our 2011 Form 10-K.

The Order does not restrict the Bank from transacting its normal banking business. The Bank has continued to serve its customers in all areas including making loans, establishing lines of credit, accepting deposits, and processing the banking transactions. All customer deposits remain fully insured to the highest limits set by the FDIC. The FDIC and DFI did not impose any monetary penalties in connection with the Order.

Although the Bank was “well capitalized” at December 31, 2011, based on financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States and the general percentages in the regulatory guidelines, because of the deficiencies cited in the Order,  the Bank is not regarded as “well capitalized” for federal regulatory purposes.

Note 6 - Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing income or loss, as applicable, available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity. The following table presents a reconciliation of the components used to compute basic and diluted loss per share. The Company completed its stock conversion on January 25, 2011.

Allowance for Possible Loan Losses.  The allowance for loan losses must be maintained at a level necessary to absorb specific losses on impaired loans and probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The assessment includes analysis of several different factors, including delinquency, charge-off rates and the changing risk profile of our loan portfolio, as well as local economic conditions such as unemployment rates, bankruptcies and vacancy rates of business and residential properties.

A loan is considered impaired when we have determined that we may be unable to collect payments of principal or interest when due under the terms of the loan. In the process of identifying loans as impaired, management takes into consideration factors which include payment history and status, collateral value, financial condition of the borrower, and the probability of collecting scheduled payments in the future. Minor payment delays and insignificant payment shortfalls typically do not result in a loan being classified as impaired. The significance of payment delays and

shortfalls is considered by management on a case by case basis, after taking into consideration the totality of circumstances surrounding the loans and the borrowers, including payment history and amounts of any payment shortfall, length and reason for delay, and likelihood of return to stable performance. Impairment is measured on a loan by loan basis for all loans in the portfolio except for credit cards, auto, and consumer loans.

Non-Accrual and Past Due Loans. Loans are considered past due if the required principal and interest payments have not been received as of the date such payments were due. Loans are placed on non-accrual when, in management’s opinion, the borrower may be unable to meet payment of obligations as they become due, as well as when required by regulatory provisions.

Credit Quality Indicators. Federal regulations provide for the classification of lower quality loans and other assets, such as debt and equity securities, as substandard, doubtful or loss. An asset is considered substandard if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and pay capacity of the borrower or of any collateral pledged. Substandard assets include those characterized by the distinct possibility that we will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Assets classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values. Assets classified as loss are those considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as assets without the establishment of a specific loss reserve is not warranted.

When we classify problem assets as either substandard or doubtful, we may establish a specific allowance to address the risk specifically or we may allow the loss to be addressed in the general allowance. General allowances represent loss allowances which have been established to recognize the inherent risk associated with lending activities, but which, unlike specific allowances, have not been specifically allocated to particular problem assets. When an insured institution classifies problem assets as a loss, it is required to charge off such assets in the period in which they are deemed uncollectible. Assets that do not currently expose us to sufficient risk to warrant classification as substandard or doubtful but possess identified weaknesses are required to be classified as either watch or special mention assets.

We also use early indicator loan grades to identify and track potential problem loans which do not rise to the levels described for substandard, doubtful or loss. The grades for watch and special mention are assigned to loans which have been criticized based upon known characteristics such as periodic payment delinquency or stale financial information from the borrower and/or guarantors. Loans identified as criticized (watch and special mention) or classified (substandard, doubtful, or loss) are subject to problem loan reporting not less than every three months.

Troubled Debt Restructure. At December 31, 2011, troubled debt restructured loans (“TDRs”), included in impaired loans above, totaled $17.2 million with $1.1 million currently in non-accrual. Restructured loans are an option that the Bank uses to minimize risk of loss. The modifications have included items such as lowering the interest on the loan for a period of time and extending the maturity date of the loan. These modifications are made only when there is a reasonable and attainable workout plan that has been agreed to by the borrower and is in the Bank’s best interest. At December 31, 2011, there were no commitments to lend additional funds to borrowers whose loans have been modified in a TDR.

Note 10 - Employee Benefit Plans

     Employee Stock Ownership Plan

On January 25, 2011, the Company established an ESOP for the benefit of substantially all employees. The ESOP borrowed $1.0 million from the Company and used those funds to acquire 102,000 shares of the Company’s stock at the time of the initial public offering at a price of $10.00 per share.

Shares purchased by the ESOP with the loan proceeds are held in a suspense account and allocated to ESOP participants on a pro rata basis as principal and interest payments are made by the ESOP to the Company. The loan is secured by shares purchased with the loan proceeds and will be repaid by the ESOP with funds from the Company’s discretionary contributions to the ESOP and earnings on the ESOP assets. Payments of principal and interest are due annually on June 30, the Company’s fiscal year end.

As shares are committed to be released from collateral, the Company reports compensation expense equal to the daily average market prices of the shares and the shares become outstanding for EPS computations. The compensation expense is accrued throughout the year.

Shares held by the ESOP as of December 31, 2011 are as follows:

Note 11 - Fair Value Measurements

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis - Assets and liabilities are considered to be fair valued on a recurring basis if fair value is measured regularly. The following definitions describe the levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2: Significant observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1, such as quoted prices in markets that are not active, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a company’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability based on the best information available in the circumstances.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis - Assets and liabilities are considered to be fair valued on a nonrecurring basis if the fair value measurement of the instrument does not necessarily result in a change in the amount recorded on the balance sheet. Generally, nonrecurring valuation is the result of the application of other accounting pronouncements that require assets or liabilities to be assessed for impairment or recorded at the lower of cost or fair value.

The impaired loans amount above represents impaired, collateral dependent loans that have been adjusted to fair value. When we identify a collateral dependent loan as impaired, we measure the impairment using the current fair value of the collateral, less selling costs. Depending on the characteristics of a loan, the fair value of collateral is generally estimated by obtaining external appraisals. If we determine that the value of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan, we recognize this impairment and adjust the carrying value of the loan to fair value through the allowance for loan and lease losses. The loss represents charge-offs or impairments on collateral dependent loans for fair value adjustments based on the fair value of collateral.

The real estate owned amount above represents impaired real estate that has been adjusted to fair value. At the time of foreclosure, other real estate owned is recorded at the lower of the carrying amount of the loan or fair value less costs to sell, which becomes the property’s new basis. Any write-downs based on the asset’s fair value at the date of acquisition are charged to the allowance for loan and lease losses. After foreclosure, management periodically performs valuations such that the real estate is carried at the lower of its new cost basis or fair value, net of estimated costs to sell. Fair value adjustments on other real estate owned are recognized within net loss on real estate owned. The loss represents impairments on other real estate owned for fair value adjustments based on the fair value of the real estate. The fair value of impaired loans and real estate owned is estimated using the fair value of the collateral less estimated selling costs.

Commitments to extend credit represent the principal categories of off-balance-sheet financial instruments. The fair values of these commitments are not material since they are for a short period of time and are subject to customary credit terms.
 
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument:
 
Cash and due from banks - For cash, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.
 
Securities - The estimated fair values of securities are based on quoted market prices of similar securities.
 
Loans held for sale - The fair value of loans held-for-sale is based on quoted market prices from FHLMC. The FHLMC quotes are updated daily and represent prices at which loans are exchanged in high volumes and in a liquid market.
 
Loans receivable, net - The fair value of loans is estimated by using comparable market statistics. The loan portfolio was segregated into various categories and a weighted average valuation discount that approximated similar loan sales was applied to each category.
 
Life insurance investment - The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of its fair value.
 
FHLB stock - FHLB stock is carried at par and does not have a readily determinable fair value. Ownership of FHLB stock is restricted to the member institutions, and can only be purchased and redeemed at par. Due to ongoing turmoil in the capital and mortgage markets, the FHLB of Seattle has a risk-based capital deficiency largely as a result of write-downs on their private label mortgage-backed securities portfolios.
 
Demand deposits, savings, money market, and certificates of deposit - The fair value of the Bank’s demand deposits, savings, and money market accounts is the amount payable on demand. The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates is estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis using current rates offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

Background and Overview

Anchor Bancorp, a Washington corporation, was formed for the purpose of becoming the bank holding company for Anchor Bank in connection with the Bank’s conversion from mutual to stock form, which was completed on January 25, 2011.  At December 31, 2011, we had total assets of $486.1 million, total deposits of $349.5 million and total stockholders' equity of $55.2 million.  Anchor Bancorp’s business activities generally are limited to passive investment activities and oversight of its investment in Anchor Bank.  Accordingly, the information set forth in this report, including consolidated financial statements and related data, relates primarily to Anchor Bank.

Anchor Bank is a Washington chartered savings bank that was organized in 1907 as a Washington state chartered savings and loan association, converted to a federal mutual savings and loan association in 1935, and converted to a Washington state chartered mutual savings bank in 1990. Anchor Bank is a community-based savings bank primarily serving Western Washington through 13 full-service banking offices (including three Wal-Mart store locations) located within Grays Harbor, Thurston, Lewis, Pierce, and Mason counties, Washington. We are in the business of attracting deposits from the public and utilizing those deposits to originate loans. We offer a wide range of loan products to meet the demands of our customers; however, most of our loans are collateralized by real estate. Historically, lending activities have been primarily directed toward the origination of one- to four-family residential construction, commercial real estate and consumer loans. Since 1990, we have also offered commercial real estate loans and multi-family loans primarily in Western Washington. To an increasing extent in recent years, lending activities have also included the origination of residential construction loans through brokers, in particular within the Portland, Oregon metropolitan area and increased reliance on non-core deposit sources of funds.

On August 12, 2009, Anchor Bank became subject to the Order, issued with its consent, by the FDIC and DFI. The Order is a formal corrective action pursuant to which Anchor Bank has agreed to take certain measures in the areas of capital, loan loss allowance determination, risk management, liquidity management, board oversight and monitoring of compliance, and imposes certain operating restrictions on Anchor Bank. Management and the Bank’s Board of Directors have been taking action and implementing programs to comply with the requirements of the Order. Information regarding Anchor Bank’s compliance with the Order is included in Note 5 to the Selected Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q and “Risk Factors - Cease and Desist Order” in the 2011 Form10-K.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Related Accounting Policies

We use estimates and assumptions in our consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Management has identified several accounting policies that, due to the judgments, estimates and assumptions inherent in those policies, are critical to an understanding of our consolidated financial statements. These policies relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses and the associated provision for loan losses, deferred income taxes and the associated income tax expense, as well as valuation of real estate owned. Management reviews the allowance for loan losses for adequacy on a monthly basis and establishes a provision for loan losses that it believes is sufficient for the loan portfolio growth expected and the loan quality of the existing portfolio. The carrying value of real estate owned is assessed on a quarterly basis. Income tax expense and deferred income taxes are calculated using an estimated tax rate and are based on management’s understanding of our effective tax rate and the tax code.

Allowance for Loan Losses. Management recognizes that loan losses may occur over the life of a loan and that the allowance for loan losses must be maintained at a level necessary to absorb specific losses on impaired loans and probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Our board of directors and management assesses the allowance for loan losses on a quarterly basis. The Executive Loan Committee analyzes several different factors including delinquency rates, charge-off rates and the changing risk profile of our loan portfolio, as well as local economic conditions such as unemployment rates, the bankruptcies and vacancy rates of business and residential properties.

We believe that the accounting estimate related to the allowance for loan losses is a critical accounting estimate because it is highly susceptible to change from period to period, requiring management to make assumptions about future losses on loans. The impact of a sudden large loss could deplete the allowance and require increased provisions to replenish the allowance, which would negatively affect earnings.

Our methodology for analyzing the allowance for loan losses consists of specific allocations on significant individual credits that meet the definition of impaired and a general allowance amount. The specific allowance component is determined when management believes that the collectability of a specifically identified large loan has been impaired and a loss is probable. The general allowance component relates to assets with no well-defined deficiency or weakness and takes into consideration loss that is inherent within the portfolio but has not been realized. The general allowance is determined by applying an expected loss percentage to various classes of loans with similar characteristics and classified loans that are not analyzed specifically for impairment. Because of the imprecision in calculating inherent and potential losses, the national and local economic conditions are also assessed to determine if the general allowance is adequate to cover losses. The allowance is increased by the provision for loan losses, which is charged against current period operating results and decreased by the amount of actual loan charge-offs, net of recoveries.

Deferred Income Taxes. Deferred income taxes are reported for temporary differences between items of income or expense reported in the financial statements and those reported for income tax purposes. Deferred taxes are computed using the asset and liability method. Under this method, a deferred tax asset or liability is determined based on the enacted tax rates that will be in effect when the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and tax basis of existing assets and liabilities are expected to be reported in an institution’s income tax returns. Deferred tax assets are deferred tax consequences attributable to deductible temporary differences and carryforwards. After the deferred tax asset has been measured using the applicable enacted tax rate and provisions of the enacted tax law, it is then necessary to assess the need for a valuation allowance. A valuation allowance is needed when, based on the weight of the available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. As required by GAAP, available evidence is weighted heavily on cumulative losses with less weight placed on future projected profitability. Realization of the deferred tax asset is dependent on whether there will be sufficient future taxable income of the appropriate character in the period during which deductible temporary differences reverse or within the carryback and carryforward periods available under tax law. Based upon the available evidence, we recorded a valuation allowance of $7.1 million at December 31, 2011. The deferred tax provision for the year is equal to the net change in the net deferred tax asset from the beginning to the end of the year, less amounts applicable to the change in value related to securities available for sale. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized as income in the period that includes the enactment date. The primary differences between financial statement income and taxable income result from deferred loan fees and costs, mortgage servicing rights, loan loss reserves and dividends received from the FHLB of Seattle.

Real estate acquired through foreclosure is transferred to the real estate owned asset classification at the lesser of “cost” (principal balance less unearned loan fees, plus capitalized expenses of acquisition, if any) or “fair value” (estimated fair market value less estimated costs of disposal). Costs associated with real estate owned for maintenance, repair, property tax, etc., are expensed during the period incurred. Assets held in real estate owned are reviewed monthly for potential impairment. When impairment is indicated the impairment is charged against current period operating results and netted against the real estate owned to reflect a net book value. At disposition any residual difference is either charged to current period earnings as a loss on sale or reflected as income in a gain on sale.

Comparison of Financial Condition at December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011

General. Total assets decreased by $2.8 million, or 0.6%, to $486.1 million at December 31, 2011, from $488.9 million at June 30, 2011. We increased our liquidity during this period as cash and due from banks increased $12.6 million, or 19.7%, loans receivable decreased $18.0 million, or 5.5%, and mortgage-backed securities available for sale increased, $9.1 million.  Total liabilities decreased $583,000 during the period, primarily attributable to a $10.0 million, or 2.9% increase in deposits offset by $11.0 million or 12.8% decrease in FHLB advances.  The decreases were due to our continued focus on replacing borrowings with transaction account (“core”) deposits.

Mortgage-backed securities available for sale increased $9.1 million or 27.8% to $41.8 million at December 31, 2011 from $32.7 million at June 30, 2011. The increase in this portfolio was primarily the result of purchases of 21 investments totaling $27.1 million, sales of 18 investments totaling $14.8 million, and contractual repayments of $3.2 million. The sale was due to rebalancing the investment portfolio to shorten the duration of the portfolio. Mortgage-backed securities held-to-maturity increased $677,000 or 9.1% to $8.1 million at December 31, 2011 from $7.4 million at June 30, 2011, as a result of one purchase of $1.5 million and principal reductions.

Assets. Total assets decreased $2.8 million at December 31, 2011 from June 30, 2011. The following table details the increases and decreases in the composition of the Bank’s assets from June 30, 2011 to December 31, 2011:

Cash and due from banks increased $12.6 million or 19.7% at December 31, 2011 from June 30, 2011 as weak loan demand combined with our continued focus on reducing non-performing assets resulted in loan originations of $18.6 million during the six months ended December 31, 2011 as compared to $18.2 million in the same period last year.  We are also maintaining a higher liquidity position as compared to historical levels for regulatory and asset-liability purposes.

Loans receivable, net, decreased $18.0 million or 5.5% to $307.5 million at December 31, 2011 from $325.5 million at June 30, 2011 primarily as a result of lower loan demand from creditworthy borrowers, charge-offs, and transfers of nonperforming loans to real estate owned, as well as pay downs due to normal borrower activity.  During the six

months ended December 31, 2011, $3.6 million of non- performing loans were transferred to real estate owned.  We also continued to reduce our exposure to construction and land loans, with our total construction and land loan portfolios decreasing $4.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2011.  In addition, our commercial real estate and commercial business loan portfolios decreased $5.8 million and $1.2 million, respectively, during the six months ended December 31, 2011 as a result of our continued focus on reducing the overall risk profile of our loan portfolio.

Deposits. Deposits increased $10.0 million, or 2.9%, to $349.5 million at December 31, 2011 from $339.5 million at June 30, 2011. The increase in deposits was due in part to our ongoing marketing strategy to focus on core deposits.

Borrowings. FHLB advances decreased $11.0 million, or 12.8%, to $74.9 million at December 31, 2011 from $85.9 million at June 30, 2011. The decrease reflected our continued focus on reducing wholesale funds.

Stockholders’ Equity. Total stockholders’ equity decreased $2.2 million or 3.9% to $55.2 million at December 31, 2011 from $57.5 million at June 30, 2011. The decrease was primarily due to the $1.6 million loss during the six months ended December 31, 2011.  Other comprehensive income decreased $678,000 which was a result of sales of investments during the period.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three and Six Months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010

General. Net income for the three months ended December 31, 2011 was $93,000 compared to a net loss of $126,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2010.   For the six months ended December 31, 2011 the net loss was $1.6 million compared to net loss of $774,000 for the comparable period in 2010.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income before the provision for loan losses decreased $405,000, or 8.9%, to $4.2 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 from $4.6 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2010.  For the six month period ended December 31, 2011 net interest income before the provision for loan losses, decreased $688,000 or 7.6% to $8.3 million from $9.0 million for the six months ended December 31, 2010.

The Company’s net interest margin decreased 20 basis points to 3.69% for the three months ended December 31, 2011, from 3.89% for the comparable period in 2010.  The decrease was primarily due to the decline in the yield on interest-earning assets.  Our yield on interest-earning assets decreased to 5.09% for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 from 5.58% for the same period last year.

The decline in the yield of interest-earning assets was primarily attributable to the downward repricing of investment securities, and a higher level of excess liquidity invested at a nominal yield.  The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 23 basis points to 1.61% for the three months ended December 31, 2011 compared to 1.84% for the same period in the prior year. This decrease was primarily due to a 32 basis point decrease in the average cost of certificates of deposits.

For the six months ended December 31, 2011, our net interest margin decreased four basis points to 3.69% compared to 3.73% for the same period in 2010.  The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 47 basis points to 1.64% for the six months ended December 31, 2011 compared to 2.11% for the same period of the prior year.  This decrease is primarily a result of a 57 basis point decrease in the average cost of FHLB borrowings due to the elimination of higher priced borrowings through payoff at normal maturity dates and a 46 basis point decrease in the average cost of certificates of deposit as a result of the decline in brokered certificates of deposit during the six months ended December 31, 2011.

Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased $394,000, or 19.9%, to $1.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2011, from $2.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2010. The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 23 basis points to 1.61% for the three months ended December 31, 2011 compared to 1.84% for the same period of the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to a 29 basis point decline in our average cost of certificates of deposit and a nine basis point increase in the average cost of FHLB advances combined with decreases of $30.7 million and $14.2 million in average FHLB advances and average certificates of deposit, respectively, during the first fiscal quarter as compared to the same period last year. The average balance of total interest-bearing liabilities decreased $35.4 million, or 8.2%, to $395.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2011 from $431.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2010.

Provision for Loan Losses. In connection with its analysis of the loan portfolio at December 31, 2011, management determined that a provision for loan losses of $475,000 was required for the three months ended December 31, 2011, compared to the $330,000 provision for loan losses established for the three months ended December 31, 2010. The provision reflects the continued weakness in the general economy and real estate market and reflects the decline in non-performing loans during the current fiscal quarter as well as net charge-offs of  $1.4 million. Non-performing loans were $12.9 million or 2.7% of total assets at December 31, 2011, compared to $14.2 million or 2.9% as of June 30, 2011.  The specific allowance component is created when management believes that the collectability of a specific large loan, such as a real estate, multi-family or commercial real estate loan, has been impaired and a loss is probable. The allowance is increased by the provision for loan losses, which is charged against current period earnings and decreased by the amount of actual loan charge-offs, net of recoveries.
 
Management considers the allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2011 to be adequate to cover probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio based on the assessment of the above-mentioned factors affecting the loan portfolio. While management believes the estimates and assumptions used in its determination of the adequacy of the allowance are reasonable, there can be no assurance that such estimates and assumptions will not be proven incorrect in the future, or that the actual amount of future provisions will not exceed the amount of past provisions or that any increased provisions that may be required will not adversely impact the Bank’s financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the determination of the amount of the Bank’s allowance for loan losses is subject to review by the Bank regulators, as part of the routine examination process, which may result in the establishment of additional reserves based upon their judgment of information available to them at the time of their examination.

The provision for loan losses is impacted by the historical performance and current risk factors associated with each loan type in our portfolio.  As we increase the loan portfolio, we anticipate an increase in the allowance for loan losses based upon both portfolio growth and the risk characteristics associated with the respective portfolio type.

Noninterest income increased during the quarter ended December 31, 2011, primarily as a result of gains on sale of investments offset by a decrease in deposit service fees, loans fees and reduced gain on sale of loans.  We recorded an increase in gain on sale of investments as we sold 18 investments for gains in the three months ended December 31, 2011 compared to one investment sold for a gain in the three months ended December 31, 2010.  The decrease in deposit services fees was related to the Bank’s two branch closures, and a decrease in ATM fee and overdraft fee income as a result of the new opt-in rules. The decrease in the amount of gain on the sale of loans was the result of a lower volume of loans sold into the secondary market during the three months ended December 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2010, which was attributable to lower demand for one-to-four family loans with refinancing activity.

 Noninterest income increased $190,000 during the six months ended December 31, 2011 from the same period in 2010.  The increase was primarily a result of a $744,000 increase in gains on the sales of investments offset by a decrease in deposit fees due to two Wal-Mart branch closures.  The decrease in the amount of gain on the sale of loans was the result of a lower volume of loans sold into the secondary market during the six months ended December 31, 2011 compared to the six months ended December 31, 2010, which was attributable to lower demand for one-to-four home loans and less refinancing activity.

Noninterest expense decreased $431,000 or 7.2%, to $5.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2011 from $6.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2010. During the quarter our information technology expense increased $232,000, of which $197,000 related to a core systems conversion scheduled for April, 2012. This conversion will increase operational efficiency, reduce expenses and add additional products and services such as mobile banking that we will offer our customers. Real estate owned impairment decreased $322,000 or 40.7% to $469,000 due to incremental stabilization of real estate values.  The Company’s efficiency ratio, which is the percentage of noninterest expense to net interest income plus noninterest income, was 90.7% for the three months ended December 31, 2011 compared to 96.7% for the three months ended December 31, 2010.

For the six months ended December 31, 2011, noninterest expense increased $860,000 or 7.5%, to $12.4 million from $11.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 2010 primarily due to information technology expense.   The expense for information technology increased $1.0 million, of which $925,000 is related to core systems conversion scheduled for April, 2012.  FDIC insurance premiums expense decreased $122,000 due to lower balances in our deposit accounts as the Bank reduced its brokered certificate of deposits. Gain on sale of real estate owned also increased $44,000 during the period.  As a result of our branch closures occupancy expense decreased $120,000.  Compensation and benefits decreased as a result of two Wal-Mart branch closures.  REO impaired increased due to continued deterioration in the real estate market.  Our efficiency ratio, which is the percentage of noninterest expense to net interest income plus noninterest income, was 105.3% for the six months ended December 31, 2011 compared to 94.0% for the six months ended December 31, 2010.

Provision (benefit) for Income Tax.  As a result of uncertainties surrounding our realization of additional deferred tax assets, the Bank has not recorded a tax benefit for the six months ended December 31, 2011.

Liquidity, Commitments and Capital Resources

Liquidity. We are required to have enough cash flow in order to maintain sufficient liquidity to ensure a safe and sound operation. Historically, we have maintained cash flow above the minimum level believed to be adequate to meet the requirements of normal operations, including potential deposit outflows. On a monthly basis, we review and update cash flow projections to ensure that adequate liquidity is maintained.
 
Our primary sources of funds are from customer deposits, loan repayments, loan sales, investment payments, maturing investment securities and advances from the FHLB of Seattle. These funds, together with retained earnings and equity, are used to make loans, acquire investment securities and other assets, and fund continuing operations. While maturities and the scheduled amortization of loans are a predictable source of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by the level of interest rates, economic conditions and competition.

We believe that our current liquidity position is sufficient to fund all of our existing commitments. At December 31, 2011, the total approved loan origination commitments outstanding amounted to $3.4 million.   At the same date, unused lines of credit were $23.0 million.

For purposes of determining our liquidity position, we use a concept of basic surplus, which is derived from the total of available for sale securities, as well as other liquid assets, less short-term liabilities. Our Board of Directors has established a target range for basic surplus of 5% to 7%. For the three months ended December 31, 2011, our average basic surplus was 17.7%, which indicates we exceeded the liquidity standard set by the Board. The Order requires Anchor Bank to establish liquidity and funds management policy that includes specific provisions to maintain a liquidity ratio of at least 15%. As of December 31, 2011 the Bank’s liquidity ratio was 33.5%.

Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of business management. Excess liquidity is generally invested in short-term investments such as overnight deposits or mortgage-backed securities. On a longer-term basis, we maintain a strategy of investing in various lending products. We use our sources of funds primarily to meet ongoing commitments, to pay maturing certificates of deposit and savings withdrawals, to fund loan commitments and to maintain our portfolio of mortgage-backed securities and investment securities.

Certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in one year or less at December 31, 2011 totaled $82.1 million. We had no brokered deposits at December 31, 2011. Management’s policy is to generally maintain deposit rates at levels that are competitive with other local financial institutions. Based on historical experience, we believe that a significant portion of maturing deposits will remain with Anchor Bank. In addition, we had the ability to borrow an additional $35 million from the FHLB of Seattle.

We measure our liquidity based on our ability to fund assets and to meet liability obligations when they come due. Liquidity (and funding) risk occurs when funds cannot be raised at reasonable prices, or in a reasonable time frame, to meet our normal or unanticipated obligations. We regularly monitor the mix between our assets and liabilities to manage effectively our liquidity and funding requirements.
 
 
 
41

 

Our primary source of funds is the Bank’s deposits. When deposits are not available to provide the funds for our assets, we use alternative funding sources. These sources include, but are not limited to: cash management from the FHLB of Seattle, wholesale funding, brokered deposits, federal funds purchased and dealer repurchase agreements, as well as other short-term alternatives. Alternatively, we may also liquidate assets to meet our funding needs. On a monthly basis, we estimate our liquidity sources and needs for the coming three-month, nine-month, and one-year time periods. Also, we determine funding concentrations and our need for sources of funds other than deposits. This information is used by our Asset Liability Management Committee in forecasting funding needs and investing opportunities.

The Company is a separate legal entity from the Bank and provides for its own liquidity to pay its operating expenses and other financial obligations. The Company’s primary sources of income are ESOP loan payments and ESOP loan interest income as there is no ability to receive dividends from the Bank in the near future. The Bank’s strategic business plan filed with the FDIC in connection with the Order contemplates no payment of dividends throughout the three-year period covered by the plan and we do not expect the Bank will be permitted to pay dividends as long as the Order remains in effect. In addition, the FDIC’s non-objection of the conversion restricts us from making any distributions to stockholders that represent a return of capital without the written non-objection of the FDIC Regional Director.

Commitments and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. We are a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business in order to meet the financing needs of our customers. These financial instruments generally include commitments to originate mortgage, commercial and consumer loans, and involve to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of amounts recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. Our maximum exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the borrower is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. Because some commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

The same credit policies are used in making commitments as are used for on-balance sheet instruments. Collateral is required in instances where deemed necessary.

Undisbursed balances of loans closed include funds not disbursed but committed for construction projects. Unused lines of credit include funds not disbursed, but committed for, home equity, commercial and consumer lines of credit.
 
Commercial letters of credit are conditional commitments issued to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily used 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 loan facilities to customers.

Capital. Consistent with our goal to operate a sound and profitable financial organization, we actively seek to maintain a “well capitalized” institution in accordance with regulatory standards and the Order. As of December 31, 2011 the Bank exceeded all regulatory capital requirements with Core Capital, Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital and Total Risk-Based Capital ratios of 10.6%, 16.2%, and 17.5% respectively. As of December 31, 2010 these ratios were 8.1%, 11.1%, and 12.4%, respectively. Although the Bank was “well capitalized” at December 31, 2011, based on financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States and the general percentages in the regulatory guidelines, because of the deficiencies cited in the FDIC Cease and Desist Order, the Bank entered into with the Washington Department of Financial Institution and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation,  the Bank is not regarded as “well capitalized” for federal regulatory purposes.

Anchor Bancorp exceeded all regulatory capital requirements with Core Capital, Tier 1 Risk Based Capital and Total Risk-Based Capital ratios of 11.0%, 16.8%, and 18.1% as of December 31, 2011.

For additional information, see the discussion included in Note 5 to the Selected Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

There has not been any material change in the market risk disclosures contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2011.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

An evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and other members of the Company’s management team as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of December 31, 2011, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Act is (i) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management (including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer) in a timely manner, and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms.

(b) Changes in Internal Controls.

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2011, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. A number of internal control procedures were, however, modified during the quarter in conjunction with the Bank’s internal control testing. The Company also continued to implement suggestions from its internal auditor and independent auditors to strengthen existing controls.

The Company intends to continually review and evaluate the design and effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures and to improve its controls and procedures over time and to correct any deficiencies that it may discover in the future. The goal is to ensure that senior management has timely access to all material financial and non-financial information concerning the Company’s business. While the Company believes the present design of its disclosure controls and procedures is effective to achieve its goal, future events affecting its business may cause the Company to modify its disclosure controls and procedures. The Company does not expect that its disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting will prevent every error or instance of fraud. A control
 
 
 
 
44

 
 
 
procedure, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control procedure are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control procedures, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns in controls or procedures can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any control procedure is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control procedure, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
