UNITED COMMUNITY FINANCIAL CORP.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

1.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

United Community Financial Corp. (United Community or the Company) was incorporated under Ohio law in February 1998 by The Home Savings and Loan Company of Youngstown, Ohio (Home Savings) in connection with the conversion of Home Savings from an Ohio mutual savings and loan association to an Ohio capital stock savings association (the Conversion). Upon consummation of the Conversion on July 8, 1998, United Community became the unitary thrift holding company for Home Savings. Home Savings, a state-chartered savings bank, conducts business from its main office located in Youngstown, Ohio, 32 full-service branches and nine loan production offices located throughout Ohio and western Pennsylvania.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of United Community have been prepared in accordance with instructions relating to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) for complete financial statements. However, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim periods.

The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2015, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2015. The consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes contained in United Community’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Some items in the prior year financial statements were reclassified to conform to the current presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on prior year consolidated statements of operations or shareholders’ equity.

RECENT ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS

In January 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-04, Receivables—Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40): Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). The ASU clarifies when an in-substance repossession or foreclosure occurs and a creditor is considered to have received physical possession of real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan.

Specifically, the new ASU requires a creditor to reclassify a collateralized consumer mortgage loan to real estate property upon obtaining legal title to the real estate collateral, or the borrower voluntarily conveying all interest in the real estate property to the lender to satisfy the loan through a deed in lieu of foreclosure or similar legal agreement. Additional disclosures are required detailing the amount of foreclosed residential real estate property held by the creditor and the recorded investment in consumer mortgages collateralized by real estate property that are in the process of foreclosure. The new guidance is effective for annual periods, and interim reporting periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, but did result in additional disclosures.

In May 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The ASU creates a new topic, Topic 606, to provide guidance on revenue recognition for entities that enter into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enter into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Additional disclosures are required to provide quantitative and qualitative information regarding the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim reporting periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is not permitted. Management is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis. The ASU amends the current consolidation guidance and affects both the variable interest entity and voting interest entity consolidation models. The new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods and interim reporting periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. Management is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

STOCK COMPENSATION

Stock Options:

On April 26, 2007, shareholders approved the United Community Financial Corp. 2007 Long-Term Incentive Plan (as amended, the 2007 Plan). The purpose of the 2007 Plan is to promote and advance the interests of United Community and its shareholders by enabling United Community to attract, retain and reward directors, directors emeritus, managerial and other key employees of United Community, including Home Savings, by facilitating their purchase of an ownership interest in United Community. The 2007 Plan provides for the issuance of up to 2,000,000 shares that are to be used for awards of restricted stock, stock options, performance awards, stock appreciation rights (SARs), or other forms of stock-based incentive awards.

On July 12, 1999, shareholders approved the United Community Financial Corp. 1999 Long-Term Incentive Plan (as amended, the 1999 Plan). The purpose of the 1999 Plan was the same as the 2007 Plan. The 1999 Plan terminated on May 20, 2009, although the 1999 Plan survives so long as options issued under the 1999 Plan remain outstanding and exercisable.

The 1999 Plan provided for the grant of either incentive or nonqualified stock options. Options were awarded at exercise prices that were not less than the fair market value of the share at the grant date. The maximum number of common shares that could be issued under the 1999 Plan was 3,569,766. Because the 1999 Plan terminated, no additional options may be issued under it. All of the options awarded became exercisable on the date of grant except that options granted in 2009 became exercisable over three years beginning on December 31, 2009. All options expire 10 years from the date of grant.

There were 2,192 stock options granted in 2015 and there were 1,794 stock options granted in 2014 under the 2007 Plan. The options must be exercised within 10 years from the date of grant.  Expenses related to stock option grants are included with salaries and employee benefits. The Company recognized $6,200 in stock option expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2015.  The Company recognized $6,400 in stock option expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The Company expects to recognize additional expense of $15,000 for the remainder of 2015 and $5,000 in 2016.

Outstanding stock options have a weighted average remaining life of 4.76 years and may be exercised in the range of $1.20 to $5.89.

Restricted Stock Awards:

The 2007 Plan permits the issuance of restricted stock awards to employees and nonemployee directors. Nonvested shares at March 31, 2015 aggregated 314,951, of which 80,441 will vest during 2015, 88,851 will vest in 2016, 84,284 will vest in 2017 and 61,375 will vest in 2018. Expenses related to restricted stock awards are charged to salaries and employee benefits and are recognized over the vesting period of the awards based on the market value of the shares at the grant date. The Company recognized approximately $190,000 in restricted stock award expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2015, and approximately $179,000 in restricted stock award expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The Company expects to recognize additional expenses of approximately $458,000 in 2015, $456,000 in 2016, $255,000 in 2017 and $83,000 in 2018.

Executive Incentive Plan

The Executive Incentive Plan (“EIP”) provides incentive compensation awards to certain officers of the Company. Executive incentive awards are generally based upon the actual performance of the Company for the twelve months ending December 31, compared to the actual performance of a peer group during the same twelve month period. The target incentive awards for each year are measured as a percentage of the base salary of participating officers.  Once the awards under the EIP are calculated, they are paid 80% in cash and 20% in restricted stock. The restricted stock will be granted and vest equally over three years, beginning on the first anniversary of the date the restricted stock is issued.  The Company incurred $68,000 in expense for the restricted stock portion of the EIP and $168,000 for the cash portion of the EIP in the three months ended March 31, 2015.  The Company incurred $107,000 in expense for the restricted stock portion of the EIP and $100,000 for the cash portion of the EIP in three months ended March 31, 2014.  Restricted stock expenses for the EIP are included in the total restricted stock expenses discussed above.  

Long-term Incentive Plan

The Long-term Incentive Plan (“LTIP”) provides a long-term incentive compensation opportunity to certain executive officers, whose participation and target award opportunities will be approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Each participant in the LTIP will be granted a target number of Performance Share Units (“PSUs”).  Target PSUs will be determined as a percentage of base salary and translated into share units based on the Company’s average stock price at the appropriate measurement date.  The performance period for the annual grant for a given year will be from January 1, year 1 through December 31, year 3.   The Company incurred $48,000 in expense for the LTIP in the three months ended March 31, 2015.  The Company incurred $50,000 in expense for the LTIP in the three months ended March 31, 2014.

All of the U.S. Treasury and government sponsored entities (GSE) and mortgage-backed securities that were temporarily impaired at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, were impaired due to the level of interest rates at that time. Unrealized losses on U.S. Treasury and government sponsored entities and mortgage-backed securities have not been recognized into income as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 because the issuer’s securities are of high credit quality (rated AA or higher), it is likely that management will not be required to sell the securities prior to their anticipated recovery, and the decline in fair value is largely due to changes in interest rates and other market conditions. There is risk that longer term rates could rise further resulting in greater unrealized losses. The Company can look for opportunities to sell securities to reduce the portfolio or change the duration characteristics. All of the securities are GSE issued debt or mortgage-backed securities and carry the same rating as the U.S. Government. The Company expects to realize all interest and principal on these securities and has no intent to sell and more than likely will not be required to sell these securities until maturity.

At March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, all of the mortgage-backed securities held by the Company were issued by U.S. government sponsored agencies, primarily Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, institutions which the government has affirmed its commitment to support. Because the decline in fair value is attributable to changes in interest rates and illiquidity, and not credit quality, and because the Company does not have the intent to sell these mortgage-backed securities and it is likely that it will not be required to sell the securities before their anticipated recovery, the Company does not consider these securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014. The Company expects to realize all interest and principal on these securities.

Proceeds from sales of available for sale securities were $5.2 million and $4,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Gross gains of $11,000 and $3,000 were realized on these sales during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Loan commitments are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments extend over various periods of time with the majority of such commitments disbursed within a sixty-day period, but can be extended up to 36 months. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses, may require payment of a fee and may expire unused. Commitments to extend credit at fixed rates expose Home Savings to some degree of interest rate risk. Home Savings evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The type or amount of collateral obtained varies and is based on management’s credit evaluation of the potential borrower. Home Savings normally has a number of outstanding commitments to extend credit.

The unpaid principal balance is the total amount of the loan that is due to Home Savings. The recorded investment includes the unpaid principal balance less any chargeoffs or partial chargeoffs applied to specific loans. The unpaid principal balance and the recorded investment both exclude accrued interest receivable and deferred loan costs, both of which are immaterial.

The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. Management estimates the allowance balance required based on an analysis using past loan loss experience, the nature and volume of the portfolio, information about specific borrower situations, estimated collateral values, general economic conditions in the market area and other factors. Allocations of the allowance may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in management’s judgment, should be charged-off.

14


Other loans not reviewed specifically by management are evaluated as a homogenous group of loans (generally single-family residential mortgage loans and all consumer credits except marine loans) using a loss factor applied to the outstanding loan balance to determine the level of reserve required. This loss factor consists of two components, a quantitative and a qualitative component. The quantitative component is based on a historical analysis of all charged-off loans, net of recovery. In determining the qualitative factors, consideration is given to such attributes as lending policies, economic conditions, nature and volume of the portfolio, management, loan quality trend, loan review, collateral value, concentrations and other external factors.  At December 31, 2014, the Company evaluated two years of net charge-off history and applied the information to the current period. This component was combined with the qualitative component to arrive at the loss factor, which is applied to the outstanding principal balance by type of credit and internal risk grade applied to specific risk pools, plus specific loss allocations and adjustments for current events and conditions. As of March 31, 2015, the Company evaluated 10 quarters of net charge-off history and applied this information to the current period.  This component is combined with the qualitative component to arrive at the loss factor, which is applied to the average outstanding balance of homogenous loans and is no longer being applied by internal risk grade. This change in methodology did not have a material effect on the calculation of the allowance for loan losses.

A troubled debt restructuring is considered to be in payment default once it is 30 days contractually past due under the modified terms.

In order to determine whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, an evaluation is performed of the probability that the borrower will be in payment default on any of its debt in the foreseeable future without the modification. This evaluation is performed in accordance with the Company’s internal underwriting policy.

Credit Quality Indicators:

The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information and current economic trends among other factors. The Company analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk. This analysis includes homogeneous loans past due 90 cumulative days, and all non-homogeneous loans including commercial loans and commercial real estate loans. Smaller balance homogeneous loans are primarily monitored by payment status.

Asset quality ratings are divided into two groups: Pass (unclassified) and Classified. Within the unclassified group, certain loans that display potential weakness are risk rated as special mention. In addition, there are three classified risk ratings: substandard, doubtful and loss. These specific credit risk categories are defined as follows:

Special Mention. Loans classified as special mention have potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the institution’s credit position at some future date.

Substandard. Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Doubtful. Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable.

Loss. Loans classified as loss are considered uncollectible and of such little value, that continuance as assets is not warranted. Although there may be a chance of recovery on these assets, it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off the asset.

The Company monitors loans on a monthly basis to determine if they should be included in one of the categories listed above. All impaired non-homogeneous credits classified as Substandard, Doubtful or Loss are analyzed on an individual basis for a specific reserve requirement. This analysis is performed on each individual credit at least annually or more frequently if warranted.

As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, and based on the most recent analysis performed, the risk category of loans by class of loans is as follows:

OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS

Home Savings sponsors a defined benefit health care plan that was curtailed in 2000, but continues to provide post-retirement medical benefits for employees who had worked 20 years and attained a minimum age of 60 by September 1, 2000, while in service with Home Savings. The plan is contributory and contains minor cost-sharing features such as deductibles and coinsurance. In addition, post-retirement life insurance coverage is provided for employees who were participants prior to December 10, 1976. The life insurance plan is non-contributory. Home Savings’ policy is to pay premiums monthly, with no pre-funding.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset if paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

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

Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity’s own beliefs about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

United Community uses the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate the fair value of each type of financial instrument:

Available for sale securities: The fair values of securities available for sale are determined by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges (Level 1 inputs). For securities where quoted prices are not available, fair values are calculated based on market prices of similar securities (Level 2).

Impaired loans: At the time a loan is considered impaired, it is valued at the lower of cost or fair value. Impaired loans carried at fair value generally receive specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses. For collateral dependent loans, fair value is commonly based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Non-real estate collateral may be valued using an appraisal, net book value per the borrower’s financial statements, or aging reports, adjusted or discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of the valuation, and management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and client’s business, resulting in a Level 3 fair value classification. Impaired loans are evaluated on a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly.

Other real estate owned: Assets acquired through or instead of loan foreclosure are initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell when acquired, establishing a new cost basis. These assets are subsequently accounted for at lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell. Fair value is commonly based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Real estate owned properties are individually evaluated at least annually for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly.

Appraisals for both collateral-dependent impaired loans and other real estate owned are performed by certified general appraisers (for commercial properties) or certified residential appraisers (for residential properties) whose qualifications and licenses have been reviewed and verified by Home Savings. Once received, a member of the Special Assets Department reviews the assumptions and approaches utilized in the appraisal as well as the overall resulting fair value in comparison with the independent data sources such as recent market data or industry-wide statistics. In addition to the Special Assets Department review, a third party independent review is also performed.  On an annual basis, Home Savings compares the actual selling price of collateral that has been sold to the most recent appraised value to determine what additional adjustment should be made to the appraisal value to arrive at fair value. At the time a property is acquired and classified as real estate owned, the fair value is determined utilizing the most appropriate method. A fair value in excess of $250,000 will be supported by an appraisal. After determination of fair value, each property will be recorded at the lower of cost (i.e., recorded investment in the loan) or the estimated net realizable value on the date of transfer to real estate owned. In determining net realizable value, reductions to fair market value may be taken for estimated costs of sale, conditions that must be remedied immediately upon acquisition, and other factors that negatively impact the marketability and prompt sale of the property.

Mortgage servicing rights: On a quarterly basis, loan servicing rights are evaluated for impairment based upon the fair value of the rights as compared to carrying amount. If the carrying amount of an individual tranche exceeds fair value, impairment is recorded on that tranche so that the servicing asset is carried at fair value. Fair value is determined at a tranche level, based on market prices for comparable mortgage servicing contracts, when available, or alternatively based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income. The valuation model utilizes assumptions that market participants would use in estimating future net servicing income and that can be validated against available market data (Level 2).

29


Loans held for sale: Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value, which is evaluated on a pool-level basis. The fair value of loans held for sale is determined using quoted prices for similar assets, adjusted for specific attributes of that loan or other observable market data, such as outstanding commitments from third party investors (Level 2).

 

Loans held for sale, at fair value:  The Company elected the fair value option for all permanent construction loans held for sale originated on or after January 1, 2015. As noted above, the fair value of the Company’s construction perm loans held for sale was determined based on quoted prices for similar loans in active markets.  The fair value of permanent construction loans held for sale is determined, based on the committed loan amount, using quoted prices for similar assets, adjusted for specific attributes of that loan and other unobservable market data, such as time it takes to complete the project (Level 3).

Interest rate caps: Home Savings uses an independent third party that performs a market valuation analysis for interest rate caps. The methodology used consists of a discounted cash flow model, all future floating cash flows are projected and both floating and fixed cash flows are discounted to the valuation date. The yield curve utilized for discounting and projecting is built by obtaining publicly available third party market quotes from Reuters, which handle up to 30-year swap maturities (Level 3). Assumptions used in the valuation of interest rate caps are back-tested for reasonableness on a quarterly basis using an independent source along with a third party service.

Purchased and written certificate of deposit option: Home Savings periodically enters into written and purchased option derivative instruments to facilitate the Power CD. The written and purchased options are mirror derivative instruments which are carried at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets. Home Savings uses an independent third party that performs a market valuation analysis for purchased and written certificate of deposit options. (Level 2)

Assets and Liabilities Measured on a Recurring Basis: Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below:

The fair value of interest rate caps was determined using proprietary models from third-party sources taking into account such factors as size of the transaction, the lack of a quoted market and the custom-tailored nature of the transaction. The fair value is inclusive of interest accruals, as applicable.

The fair value of loans held for sale, at fair value was determined using pricing from a quoted market, discounted for the length of time to the completion of the construction project.

Impaired loans with specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses, carried at fair value, which are measured for impairment using the fair value of the collateral for collateral dependent loans, had a net carrying amount of $4.5 million at March 31, 2015, that includes a specific valuation allowance of $678,000. This resulted in a decrease of the provision for loan losses of $35,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2015. Impaired loans with specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses, carried at fair value, which are measured for impairment using the fair value of the collateral for collateral dependent loans, had a net carrying amount of $2.7 million at March 31, 2014, which includes a specific valuation allowance of $959,000. This resulted in an increase in the provision for loan losses of $469,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2014.  Impaired loans with specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses, carried at fair value, which are measured for impairment using the fair value of the collateral for collateral dependent loans, had a net carrying amount of $4.8 million at December 31, 2014, that includes a specific valuation allowance of $713,000.

The significant unobservable (Level 3) inputs used in the fair value measurement of collateral for collateral dependent impaired loans included in the above table primarily relate to the adjustment between carrying values versus appraised value. During the reported periods, discounts applied to appraisals for estimated selling costs were 10%.

At March 31, 2015, mortgage servicing rights carried at fair value were $1.5 million, resulting in a net valuation allowance of $219,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015. At March 31, 2014, mortgage servicing rights, carried at fair value, totaled $103,000, which is made up of the outstanding balance of $104,000, net of a valuation allowance of $1,000. At December 31, 2014, mortgage servicing rights carried at fair value were $1.1 million, resulting in a net loss of $58,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014. Mortgage servicing rights are valued by an independent third party that is active in purchasing and selling these instruments. The value reflects the characteristics of the underlying loans discounted at a market multiple.

At March 31, 2015, other real estate owned, carried at fair value, which is measured for impairment using the fair value of the property less estimated selling costs, had a gross carrying amount of $2.9 million, with a valuation allowance of $1.2 million. This resulted in additional expenses of $80,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2015. At March 31, 2014, other real estate owned, carried at fair value, which is measured for impairment using the fair value of the property less estimated selling costs, had a net carrying amount of $3.4 million with a valuation allowance of $3.6 million. This resulted in additional expenses of $292,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2014. At December 31, 2014, other real estate owned had a net carrying amount of $1.9 million, with a valuation allowance of $1.4 million.

The methods and assumptions, not previously presented, used to estimate fair values are described as follows:

(a) Cash and Cash Equivalents

The carrying amounts of cash and short-term instruments approximate fair values and are classified as Level 1.

(b) FHLB Stock

It is not practical to determine the fair value of FHLB stock due to restrictions placed on its transferability.

(c) Loans

Fair values of loans, excluding loans held for sale, are estimated as follows: for variable rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values resulting in a Level 3 classification; 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 resulting in a Level 3 classification; and impaired loans are valued at the lower of cost or fair value as described previously. The methods utilized to estimate the fair value of loans do not necessarily represent an exit price.

(d) Deposits

The fair values disclosed for demand deposits (e.g., interest and non-interest checking, savings, and certain types of money market accounts) are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amount) resulting in a Level 1 classification. The carrying amounts of variable rate, fixed-term money market accounts approximate their fair values at the reporting date resulting in a Level 1 classification. Fair values for fixed and variable rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates of deposit to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits resulting in a Level 2 classification.

(e) Other Borrowings

Short-term borrowings, generally maturing within 90 days, approximate their fair values resulting in a Level 2 classification. The fair values of Home Savings long-term borrowings are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on the current borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements resulting in a Level 2 classification.

(f) Accrued Interest Receivable/Payable

The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate fair value resulting in a Level 2 or Level 3 classification, depending on the classification of the underlying asset or liability.

(g) Off-balance Sheet Instruments

Fair values for off-balance sheet, credit-related financial instruments are based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing. The fair value of commitments is not material.

EARNINGS PER SHARE

The Company has granted stock compensation awards with nonforfeitable dividend rights which are considered participating securities. As such, earnings per share is computed using the two-class method as required by ASC 206-10-45. Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income allocated to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period which excludes the participating securities.

As of June 30, 2014, management concluded it was more likely than not that the Company’s net deferred tax asset (DTA) would be realized and accordingly determined a full deferred tax valuation allowance was no longer required. Upon reversal of the former full deferred tax valuation allowance as of June 30, 2014, certain disproportionate tax effects are retained in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) totaling approximately a ($16.6) million loss. Almost the entire disproportionate tax effect is attributable to valuation allowance expense recorded through other comprehensive income (loss) on the tax benefit of losses sustained on the available for sale securities portfolio while the Company was in a full deferred tax valuation allowance. This valuation allowance was appropriately reversed through continuing operations at June 30, 2014, leaving the original expense in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), where it will remain in accordance with the Company’s election of the “portfolio approach”, until such time as the Company would cease to have an available for sale security portfolio.

REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

Home Savings and United Community is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. During the first quarter of 2015, Home Savings and United Community adopted the new Basel III regulatory capital framework as approved by the federal banking agencies. The adoption of this new framework modified the calculation of the various capital ratios, added a new ratio, common equity tier 1, and revised the adequately and well capitalized thresholds. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possible additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on Home Savings and United Community. The regulations require Home Savings to meet specific capital adequacy guidelines in keeping with the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action that involve quantitative measures of Home Savings’ assets, liabilities, and certain off balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Home Savings’ capital classification is also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components of capital, risk weightings, and other factors.

In July 2013, United Community’s primary federal regulator, the FRB, and Home Savings’ primary federal regulator, the FDIC, along with other regulatory agencies, published final rules (the Basel III Capital Rules) that revised their leverage and risk-based capital requirements and the method for calculating risk-weighted assets to make them consistent with agreements that were reached by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision and certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act. Among other things, the rule establishes a new common equity Tier 1 minimum capital requirement (4.5% of risk-weighted assets), increases the minimum Tier 1 capital to risk-based assets requirement (from 4% to 6% of risk-weighted assets) and assigns a higher risk weight (150%) to exposures that are more than 90 days past due or are on nonaccrual status and to certain commercial real estate facilities that finance the acquisition, development or construction of real property. The final rule also requires unrealized gains and losses on certain available-for-sale securities holdings to be included for purposes of calculating regulatory capital requirements unless a one-time opt-in or opt-out is exercised. In connection with the adoption of the Basel III Capital Rules, United Community and Home Savings elected to opt-out of the requirement to include most components of accumulated other comprehensive income in Common Equity Tier 1.  The rule limits a banking organization’s capital distributions and certain discretionary bonus payments if the banking organization does not hold a “capital conservation buffer” consisting of 2.5% of common equity Tier 1 capital risk-based weighted assets in addition to the amount necessary to meeting its minimum risk-based capital requirements.

The final rule became effective for Home Savings on January 1, 2015. The capital conservation buffer requirement will be phased in beginning January 1, 2016 and ending January 1, 2019, when the full capital conservation buffer requirement will be effective. The final rule also implements consolidated capital requirements, effective January 1, 2015.

39


Quantitative measures established by regulation for capital adequacy require Home Savings to maintain minimum ratios of Tier 1 (or Core) capital (as defined in the regulations) to average total assets (as defined) and of total risk-based capital (as defined) to risk-weighted assets (as defined).  United Community and Home Savings’ Common Equity Tier 1 capital consists of common stock and related paid-in capital, net of treasury stock, and retained earnings. In connection with the adoption of the Basel III Capital Rules, United Community and Home Savings elected to opt-out of the requirement to include most components of accumulated other comprehensive income in Common Equity Tier 1. Common Equity Tier 1 for both United Community and Home Savings is reduced by intangible assets, net of associated deferred tax liabilities and subject to transition provisions. Actual and regulatory required capital ratios for Home Savings, along with the dollar amount of capital implied by such ratios, are presented below.

As of March 31, 2015, the net deferred tax asset (DTA) was $24.3 million, and as of December 31, 2014, the net DTA was $28.2 million.

The realization of a DTA is assessed and a valuation allowance is recorded if it is “more likely than not” that all or a portion of the DTA will not be realized. “More likely than not” is defined as the DTA being more than 50% likely of being realized. All available evidence, both positive and negative is considered to determine whether, based on the weight of that evidence, a valuation allowance against the net DTA is required. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, the Company considered all available evidence about the realization of the DTA both positive and negative, that could be objectively verified.

Positive evidence considered included (1) the Company’s recent history of quarterly pre-tax earnings (with the most recent quarterly loss being recorded for the quarter ended September 30, 2012), (2) expectations for sustained and continued profitability with sufficient taxable income to fully utilize the remaining net deferred tax benefits (3) significant reductions in the level of non-performing assets since their peak, which was the primary source of the losses generated in prior periods (4) resolution to an executive search placed on a key management position (5) evaluation of core earnings (6) adequacy of capital to fund balance sheet and future growth and (7) cost-saving initiatives triggered during 2014.

Negative evidence considered was (1) the uncertainty about the potential impact on future earnings from nonperforming assets along with (2) former pre-tax losses reported by the Company. As the number of consecutive periods of profitability increased and the level of profits are indicative of on-going results, the weight of cumulative losses as negative evidence decreased. A reduction in the weight given to such losses is further validated given that the source of the losses was due to an elevated level of problem assets and related credit costs, which have since been significantly reduced due to the bulk asset sale in 2012 and as evidenced by the improvements in the Company’s asset quality metrics.

After weighing both the positive and negative evidence, management determined that a valuation allowance on the net DTA was no longer warranted as of June 30, 2014 and March 31, 2015. For a more detailed discussion of the Company’s tax calculation, see Note 14 to the consolidated financial statements, included in Item 8 of the Company’s Form 10-K.

42


The Company’s ultimate realization of the DTA is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the nature and amount of historical and projected future taxable income, the scheduled reversal of deferred tax assets and liabilities, and available tax planning strategies in making this assessment. The amount of deferred taxes recognized could be impacted by changes to any of these variables.

United Community’s net operating loss of $63.7 million at March 31, 2015 will be carried forward to use against future taxable income. The net operating loss carryforwards begin to expire in the year ending December 31, 2030. In addition, United Community is carrying forward $617,000 of alternative minimum tax credits. The alternative minimum tax credits are carried forward indefinitely.

Comparison of Financial Condition at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014

Total assets increased $27.1 million to $1.9 billion at March 31, 2015, compared to December 31, 2014. Contributing to the change were increases in net loans of $20.3 million and loans held for sale of $10.5 million offset by decreases in available for sale securities of $7.4 million and other assets of $4.3 million.

Funds not currently utilized for general corporate purposes are invested in overnight funds. Cash and cash equivalents increased $8.7 million during the first three months of 2015.

The decrease in available for sale securities was the result of maturities, paydowns and amortization of securities totaling $8.2 million and sales of $5.2 million, offset by a positive market value adjustment of $6.0 million during the first three months of 2015.

Net loans increased $20.3 million during the first three months of 2015. Contributing to the increase was a combination of an increase in multifamily and nonresidential loans during the period. See Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding the composition of net loans.

The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses established through a provision for loan losses charged to expense. The allowance for loan losses was $17.2 million at March 31, 2015, down from $17.7 million at December 31, 2014. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans was 1.45% at March 31, 2015, compared to 1.52% at December 31, 2014. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of nonperforming loans was 85.69% at March 31, 2015, compared to 86.48% at December 31, 2014. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when the uncollectability of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are added back to the allowance. Home Savings’ allowance for loan loss methodology includes allowance allocations calculated in accordance with ASC Topic 310, “Receivables,” and allowance allocations calculated in accordance with ASC Topic 450, “Contingencies”. At December 31, 2014, the Company evaluated two years of net charge-off history and applied the information to the current period. This component was combined with the qualitative component to arrive at the loss factor, which is applied to the outstanding principal balance by type of credit and internal risk grade applied to specific risk pools, plus specific loss allocations and adjustments for current events and conditions. As of March 31, 2015, the Company evaluated 10 quarters of net charge-off history and applied this information to the current period.  This component is combined with the qualitative component to arrive at the loss factor, which is applied to the average outstanding balance of homogenous loans and is no longer being applied by internal risk grade. This change in methodology did not have a material effect on the calculation of the allowance for loan losses.

During the first three months of 2015, the Company recorded a negative loan loss provision of $184,000. This favorable recognition was primarily due to a lower level of net charge-offs and disposition of nonperforming loans.  

A loan is considered impaired when there is a deterioration of the credit worthiness of the borrower to the extent that there is no longer reasonable assurance of the timely collection of the full amount of principal and interest. The total outstanding balance of all impaired loans was $45.8 million at March 31, 2015 as compared to $45.9 million at December 31, 2014.

Included in impaired loans above are certain loans Home Savings considers to be troubled debt restructurings (TDR). A loan is considered a TDR if Home Savings grants a concession to the debtor that it would otherwise not consider. The concession either stems from an agreement between the creditor and the debtor or is imposed by law or a court. If the debtor is not currently experiencing financial difficulties, but would probably be in payment default in the future without the modification, then this type of restructure also could be considered a TDR.

45


TDR loans aggregated $30.5 million at March 31, 2015 compared to $31.2 million at December 31, 2014.  Of the $30.5 million at March 31, 2015, $27.2 million were performing loans according to their modified terms.  The remaining balance of TDR loans of $3.3 million were considered nonperforming.  

Nonperforming loans consist of nonaccrual loans and loans past due 90 days and still accruing. Nonperforming loans were $20.1 million, or 1.72% of net loans, at March 31, 2015, compared to $20.5 million, or 1.78% of net loans, at December 31, 2014.

Loans held for sale increased $10.5 million, or 50.7%, to $31.2 million at March 31, 2015, compared to $20.7 million at December 31, 2014. The change was primarily attributable to the originations of permanent construction loans during the period.  These loans are not sold until construction of the new residence is complete. Home Savings continues to sell a portion of newly originated mortgage loans into the secondary market as part of its risk management strategy and anticipates continuing to do so in the future.

Real estate owned and other repossessed assets decreased $348,000, or 10.0%, during the three months ended March 31, 2015. Real estate owned and other repossessed assets are recorded at the lower of (a) the loan’s acquisition balance or (b) the fair market value of the property secured less costs to sell. Appraisals are obtained at least annually on nonresidential real estate properties that exceed $1.0 million in value and residential real estate properties that exceed $250,000 in value. Based on current appraisals, a valuation allowance may be established to properly reflect the asset at fair value. The increase in the valuation allowance on property acquired was due to the decline in market value of those properties.

Bank Owned Life Insurance (BOLI) is maintained on select officers and employees of Home Savings whereby Home Savings is the beneficiary. BOLI is recorded at its cash surrender value, or the amount currently realizable. Increases in the Home Savings’ policy cash surrender value are tax exempt and death benefit proceeds received by Home Savings are tax-free. Income from these policies and changes in the cash surrender value are recorded in other income. There is no post-termination coverage, split dollar or other benefits provided to participants covered by the BOLI. Home Savings recognized $332,000 and $350,000, as other non-interest income based on the change in cash value of the policies in the three months ended March 31 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Other assets decreased $4.3 million, largely due to reversal of the deferred tax assets associated with security gains and the Company’s net operating loss carryforward due to current period earrings.

 

Total deposits increased $58.9 million to $1.4 billion at March 31, 2015 compared to $1.3 billion at December 31, 2014.  Total non-time deposits increased 7.1% which can be substantially attributed to the Bank’s planned expansion efforts in attracting public funds.    

Advance payments by borrowers for taxes and insurance decreased $5.4 million during the first three months of 2015. Remittance of real estate taxes and property insurance made on behalf of customers of Home Savings accounted for $1.7 million of the decrease. In addition, funds held for payments received on loans sold where servicing was retained by Home Savings decreased $3.6 million.

FHLB advances decreased from $186.2 million at December 31, 2014 to $152.4 million at March 31, 2015.  The change was due to a reduction in overnight advances.

Home Savings receives requests for reimbursements from both Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae to make them whole on loans sold to them in the secondary market. These loans were originated by Home Savings in the normal course, but such loans have certain defined weaknesses such that a settlement to the investor is required. For the three months ended March 31, 2015, Home Savings recognized a recovery of $58,000 associated with such repurchases. Home Savings has included in other liabilities a reserve for future make-whole settlements aggregating $496,000 at March 31, 2015.

Shareholders’ equity increased $7.0 million to $247.1 million at March 31, 2015, from $240.1 million at December 31, 2014. The change occurred as a result of net income for the period, along with positive adjustments to other comprehensive income for the recovery of value of available for sale securities during the period, offset by the payment of a quarterly dividend in the first quarter of 2015.

46


In July 2013, United Community’s primary federal regulator, the FRB, and Home Savings’ primary federal regulator, the FDIC, along with other regulatory agencies, published final rules (the Basel III Capital Rules) that revised their leverage and risk-based capital requirements and the method for calculating risk-weighted assets to make them consistent with agreements that were reached by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision and certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act. Among other things, the rule establishes a new common equity Tier 1 minimum capital requirement (4.5% of risk-weighted assets), increases the minimum Tier 1 capital to risk-based assets requirement (from 4% to 6% of risk-weighted assets) and assigns a higher risk weight (150%) to exposures that are more than 90 days past due or are on nonaccrual status and to certain commercial real estate facilities that finance the acquisition, development or construction of real property. The final rule also requires unrealized gains and losses on certain available-for-sale securities holdings to be included for purposes of calculating regulatory capital requirements unless a one-time opt-in or opt-out is exercised. In connection with the adoption of the Basel III Capital Rules, United Community and Home Savings elected to opt-out of the requirement to include most components of accumulated other comprehensive income in Common Equity Tier 1.  The rule limits a banking organization’s capital distributions and certain discretionary bonus payments if the banking organization does not hold a “capital conservation buffer” consisting of 2.5% of common equity Tier 1 capital risk-based weighted assets in addition to the amount necessary to meeting its minimum risk-based capital requirements.

The final rule became effective for Home Savings on January 1, 2015. The capital conservation buffer requirement will be phased in beginning January 1, 2016 and ending January 1, 2019, when the full capital conservation buffer requirement will be effective. The final rule also implements consolidated capital requirements, effective January 1, 2015.

Events beyond management’s control, such as fluctuations in interest rates or a downturn in the economy in areas in which Home Savings’ loans and securities are concentrated, could adversely affect future earnings and consequently Home Savings’ ability to meet its future capital requirements.

Book value per common share as of March 31, 2015 was $5.01 as compared to $4.88 per common share as of December 31, 2014. Book value per share is calculated as total common equity divided by the number of common shares outstanding. Book value was impacted by the overall change in equity as mentioned above.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended

March 31, 2015 and March 31, 2014

Net Income. United Community recognized net income for the three months ended March 31, 2015, of $3.7 million, or $0.07 per diluted common share compared to net income of $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014, or $0.04 per diluted share.

The increase in earnings for the first quarter of 2015 was primarily a result of higher net interest income due to loan growth and the positive impact of the 2014 modification of a FHLB advance and the prepayment of two repurchase agreements.  Also contributing to the change was a $217,000 lower provision for loan loss and $894,000 higher non-interest income. In addition, the Company recorded a reduction of $862,000 in non-interest expenses.  

Net Interest Income. Net interest income was $13.9 million in the first quarter of 2015 up from the $12.6 million recorded in the first quarter of 2014.  Net interest margin was 3.24% for the first quarter of 2015 compared to 3.07% in the first quarter of 2014.

Total interest income increased by $329,000 in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the same period in 2014, to $16.0 million from $15.7 million. The increase was mainly attributable to increases in net loans and loans held for sale portfolios. Average net loans increased $109.5 million in the first quarter compared to the same period in 2014, yields declined 24 basis points to 4.41% at March 31, 2015 from 4.65% for the same period in 2014. Average loans held for sale increased $22.2 million in the first quarter compared to the same period in 2014, yields improved slightly to 4.42% for the three months ended March 31, 2015 from 4.40% for the same period in 2014. Interest income from net loans increased to $12.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 compared to $12.1 million for the same period in 2014, and income from loans held for sale increased to $294,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 compared to $49,000 million for the same period in 2014.

Interest expense decreased by $949,000 in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the same period in 2014, to $2.2 million from $3.1 million. This decrease was due to a 29 basis point decline in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities in the first quarter of 2015 due to the 2014 modification of a FHLB advance and the prepayment of two repurchase agreements. Interest expense related to interest-bearing deposits was $1.5 million in the first quarter of 2015 compared to $1.7 million for the same period in 2014. Expenses on FHLB advances and securities sold under repurchase agreements were $305,000 and $316,000 respectively in the first quarter of 2015 compared to $518,000 and $908,000 respectively for the same period in 2014.  

47


The following table shows the impact of interest rate and outstanding balance (volume) changes compared to the first quarter of last year. The interest rate spread for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, was 3.11 % and 2.91%, respectively. The net interest margin increased 17 basis points to 3.24% for the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to 3.07% for the same quarter in 2014.

Provision for Loan Losses. A provision for loan losses is charged to income to bring the total allowance for loan losses to a level considered by management to be adequate, based on management’s evaluation of such factors as the delinquency status of loans, current economic conditions, the net realizable value of the underlying collateral, changes in the composition of the loan portfolio and prior loan loss experience. The Company recognized negative loan loss provision of $184,000 in the first quarter of 2015, compared to a $33,000 expense in the first quarter of 2014.  This favorable recognition was primarily due to a lower level of net charge-offs and disposition of nonperforming loans.  At the end of the first quarter of 2015, net chargeoffs to average outstanding loans was 10 basis points on an annualized basis.  This compares favorably to 23 basis points for the same period last year.

Noninterest Income. Noninterest income in the first quarter of 2015 was $4.1 million, as compared to noninterest income for the first quarter of 2014 of $3.2 million. The increase in noninterest income was driven by increased mortgage banking income and lower losses on the disposition of real estate owned and other repossessed assets.  The increase in mortgage banking income was due to an increase in the volume of loans sold in the secondary market in the current quarter, as compared to the same quarter last year.  Additionally, Home Savings was able to benefit from the increased pricing from loans originated in the previous year.  Home Savings adopted fair-value accounting for newly-originated construction perm loans in 2015.  The Company has elected the fair value option for newly originated permanent construction loans held for sale.  Fair value accounting more appropriately aligns the recognition of gains with hedging costs incurred during the construction period.  See Note 9 discussing fair value.  

Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense was $12.7 million in the first quarter of 2015, compared to $13.5 million in the first quarter of 2014, a difference of $862,000. In the first quarter of 2015, salaries and employee benefits declined, primarily due to cost reduction initiatives that began in the second quarter of 2014.  Equipment and data processing expense declined as a result of lower core-processing system costs.  Other expenses declined $381,000 to $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared to the same three month period last year.  Other expenses decreased primarily because of lower expenses incurred on loans sold in the secondary market. In the first quarter of the current year, Home Savings recognized a recovery of $58,000, based on historical losses and the quantity of loans with potential weakness that would require repurchase.  In the first quarter of 2014, Home Savings incurred expenses of $337,000 for repurchased loans.  

Income Taxes. During the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company recognized a tax expense of $1.8 million on pre-tax income of $5.5 million, compared to tax expense of $156,000 on pre-tax income of $2.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The primary reason for the variance was the recognition of book tax expense for the current period while in the previous year the Company maintained a full valuation on its net deferred tax assets and recognized its alternative minimum tax liability for that period.

Liquidity

United Community's liquidity, primarily represented by cash and cash equivalents, is a result of its operating, investing and financing activities.

The principal sources of funds for United Community are deposits, loan repayments, maturities of securities, borrowings from financial institutions, repurchase agreements and other funds provided by operations.  Home Savings also has the ability to borrow from the Federal Home Loan Bank.  While scheduled loan repayments and maturing investments are relatively predictable, deposit flows and early loan prepayments are more influenced by interest rates, general economic conditions and competition.  Investments in liquid assets maintained by United Community and Home Savings are based upon management's assessment of (1) the need for funds, (2) expected deposit flows, (3) yields available on short-term liquid assets, and (4) objectives of the asset and liability management program.  At March 31, 2015, approximately $161.3 million of Home Savings’ certificates of deposit were expected to mature within one year.  Based on past experience and Home Savings’ prevailing pricing strategies, management believes that a substantial percentage of such certificates will be renewed with Home Savings at maturity, although there can be no assurance that this will occur.

Home Savings’ Asset/Liability Committee (ALCO) is responsible for establishing and monitoring liquidity guidelines, policies and procedures.  ALCO uses a variety of methods to monitor the liquidity position of Home Savings including a liquidity analysis that measures potential sources and uses of funds over future time periods out to one year.  ALCO also performs contingency funding analyses to determine Home Savings’ ability to meet potential liquidity needs under stress scenarios that cover varying time horizons ranging from immediate to long-term.

At March 31, 2015, United Community had total on-hand liquidity, defined as cash and cash equivalents, unencumbered securities and additional FHLB borrowing capacity, of $705.2 million.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Qualitative Aspects of Market Risk. The principal market risk affecting United Community is interest rate risk. United Community is subject to interest rate risk to the extent that its interest earning assets reprice differently than its interest bearing liabilities. Interest rate risk is defined as the sensitivity of United Community’s earnings and net asset values to changes in interest rates. As part of its efforts to monitor and manage the interest rate risk, the Board of Directors of Home Savings has adopted an interest rate risk policy that requires the Home Savings Board to review quarterly reports related to interest rate risk and to annually set exposure limits for Home Savings as a guide to management in setting and implementing day to day operating strategies.

Quantitative Aspects of Market Risk. As part of its interest rate risk analysis, Home Savings uses the net portfolio value (NPV) and net interest income methodology. Generally, NPV is the discounted present value of the difference between incoming cash flows on interest earning and other assets and outgoing cash flows on interest bearing and other liabilities. The application of the methodology attempts to quantify interest rate risk as the change in the NPV and net interest income that would result from various levels of theoretical basis point changes in market interest rates.

Home Savings uses an NPV and earnings simulation model prepared internally as its primary method to identify and manage its interest rate risk profile. The model is based on actual cash flows and repricing characteristics for all financial instruments and incorporates market-based assumptions regarding the impact of changing interest rates on future volumes and the prepayment rate of applicable financial instruments. Assumptions based on the historical behavior of deposit rates and balances in relation to changes in interest rates also are incorporated into the model. These assumptions inherently are uncertain and, as a result, the model cannot measure precisely NPV or net interest income or precisely predict the impact of fluctuations in interest rates on net interest rate changes as well as changes in market conditions and management strategies.

Presented below are analyses of Home Savings’ interest rate risk as measured by changes in NPV and net interest income for instantaneous and sustained parallel shifts of 100 basis point increments in market interest rates. As noted, for the year ended December 31, 2014, and the quarter ended March 31, 2015, the percentage changes fall within the policy limits set by the Board of Directors of Home Savings as the minimum NPV ratio and the maximum change in interest income the Home Savings Board deems advisable in the event of various changes in interest rates. See the table below for Board adopted policy limits.

Due to a low interest rate environment, it was not meaningful to calculate results for a drop in interest rates.

51


As with any method of measuring interest rate risk, certain shortcomings are inherent in the above approach. For example, although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or periods of repricing, they may react in different degrees to changes in market interest rates. Also, the interest rates on certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in market interest rates, while interest rates on other types may lag behind changes in market rates. Further, in the event of a change in interest rates, expected rates of prepayment on loans and early withdrawal levels from certificates of deposit may deviate significantly from those assumed in making risk calculations.

Potential Impact of Changes in Interest Rates. Home Savings’ profitability depends to a large extent on its net interest income, which is the difference between interest income from loans and securities and interest expense on deposits and borrowings. Like most financial institutions, Home Savings’ short-term interest income and interest expense are affected significantly by changes in market interest rates and other economic factors beyond its control.

 

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures.

An evaluation was carried out by United Community’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer, of the effectiveness of United Community’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e)/15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of March 31, 2015. Based on their evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer have concluded that United Community’s disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2015, were effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed in the reports that United Community files or submits under the Exchange Act (i) was recorded, processed, summarized and reported on a timely basis, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to management, including United Community’s Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. During the quarter ended March 31, 2015, there were no changes in United Community’s internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect United Community’s internal controls over financial reporting.
