Flatbush Federal Bancorp, Inc.
Flatbush Federal Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) is a Federal corporation which was organized in 2003 as part of the mutual holding company reorganization of Flatbush Federal Savings & Loan Association (the “Association”). The Company’s principal asset is its investment in Flatbush Federal Savings & Loan Association. The Company is a majority owned subsidiary of Flatbush Federal Bancorp, MHC (“Flatbush MHC”), a Federally-chartered mutual holding company. Flatbush MHC owned 1,484,208 shares of common stock, or 54.23% of the outstanding shares of the common stock at December 31, 2011. At December 31, 2011, the Company had consolidated assets of $142.7 million, deposits of $114.9 million and stockholders’ equity of $14.6 million. The Company’s executive office is located at 2146 Nostrand Avenue, Brooklyn, New York 11210 and its telephone number is (718) 859-6800.
On March 13, 2012, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and between (i) Northfield Bank, Northfield Bancorp, Inc. (“Northfield Bancorp”), and Northfield Bancorp, MHC, and (ii) the Company, the Association and Flatbush Federal Bancorp, MHC. The Merger Agreement provides, among other things, that as a result of the merger of the Company into Northfield Bancorp (the “Mid-Tier Merger”), each outstanding share of the Company’s common stock will be converted into the right to receive 0.4748 shares of Northfield Bancorp common stock. The Merger Agreement contains a number of customary representations and warranties by the parties regarding certain aspects of their respective businesses, financial condition, structure and other facts pertinent to the Merger that are customary for a transaction of this kind. The obligation of the parties to complete the Merger is subject to various customary conditions. If the Merger is terminated under specified situations in the Merger Agreement (because the Company accepts a proposal to be acquired that is superior to the one contained in the Merger Agreement, enters into an agreement related to such a proposal and terminates the Merger Agreement, or fails to make, withdraws, modifies or qualifies its recommendation regarding the Merger Agreement), the Company may be required to pay a termination

fee to Northfield Bancorp of approximately $700,000. The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, which was included in a Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 15, 2012.
Flatbush Federal Savings & Loan Association
General. The Association’s principal business consists of attracting retail deposits from the general public in the areas surrounding its three locations in Brooklyn, New York and investing those deposits, together with funds generated from operations, primarily in one- to four-family residential mortgage loans, commercial real estate loans, construction loans, investment securities, and mortgage-backed securities. The Association’s revenues are derived principally from the interest on loans and securities, loan origination and servicing fees, bank owned life insurance (“BOLI”) income, and service charges and fees collected on deposit accounts. The Association’s primary sources of funds are deposits, principal and interest payments on loans and securities, and borrowings.
Competition. The Association faces intense competition within its market area both in making loans and attracting deposits. The New York City area has a high concentration of financial institutions including large money center and regional banks, community banks and credit unions. Some of the Association’s competitors offer products and services that the Association does not currently offer, such as trust services and private banking. As of December 31, 2011, the Association’s market share of deposits represented less than one half of one percent of deposits in Kings County.
The Association’s competition for loans and deposits comes principally from commercial banks, savings institutions, mortgage banking firms and credit unions. The Association faces additional competition for deposits from short-term money market funds, brokerage firms, mutual funds and insurance companies. The primary focus is to build and develop profitable customer relationships across all lines of business while maintaining a role as a community bank.
Market Area. The Association operates in an urban market area that has a stable population and household base. The Association’s primary lending area is concentrated in Brooklyn, as well as the other four boroughs of New York City, and Long Island, New York. One- to four-family residential real estate in the Association’s market area is characterized by a large number of attached and semi-detached houses, including a number of two- and three-family homes and condominium apartments. Most of the deposit customers are residents of the greater New York metropolitan area. The economy of the market area is characterized by a large number of small retail establishments. The Association’s customer base is comprised of middle-income households, and to a lesser extent, low-to-moderate-income households.
Lending Activities. Historically, the Association’s principal lending activity has been the origination of first mortgage loans for the purchase or refinancing of one- to four-family residential real property as well as multi-family and commercial real estate loans. Historically, the Association retained all loans that it originated. However, beginning in 2002 the Association sold a limited number of its one- to four-family loans, on a servicing retained basis, to the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York. No loans were sold during the year ended December 31, 2011. One- to four-family residential real estate mortgage loans represented $66.7 million, or 68.31%, of our loan portfolio at December 31, 2011. The Association also offers commercial real estate loans, multifamily loans, condominium loans and construction loans secured by real estate. Construction loans totaled $2.7 million, or 2.76% of the total loan portfolio at December 31, 2011. Commercial real estate loans totaled $21.9 million, or 22.43% of the total loan portfolio at December 31, 2011. Multi-family real estate loans totaled $5.7 million, or 5.89% of the total loan portfolio at December 31, 2011. On a limited basis, non-real estate secured loans are originated and consist of passbook loans and credit card loans.

The total amount of loans due after December 31, 2012 that have fixed interest rates is $65.7 million, and the total amount of loans due after such date which have floating or adjustable interest rates is $25.9 million. Of the $19.0 million of commercial real estate loans due after December 31, 2012, 13.5% have fixed interest rates and 86.5 % have adjustable interest rates. At December 31, 2011, there were no construction loans due after December 31, 2012.
One-to Four-Family Residential Loans. The Association’s lending activity includes the origination of one- to four-family residential mortgage loans that are primarily secured by properties located in Brooklyn, as well as the other four boroughs of New York City, and Long Island, New York. At December 31, 2011, approximately $66.7 million, or 68.31% of our loan portfolio, consisted of one- to- four-family residential loans. Generally, one- to four-family residential mortgage loans are originated in amounts up to 80% of the lesser of the appraised value or purchase price of the property. Private mortgage insurance is required on loans with a loan-to-value ratio in excess of 80%. The Association will not make loans with a loan-to-value ratio in excess of 95% for loans secured by single family homes and 90% for loans secured by two- to four-family properties. Fixed-rate loans are originated for terms of 15 and 30 years. At December 31, 2011, the Association’s largest loan secured by one- to four-family real estate had a principal balance of $874,000 and was secured by a one-family residence. This loan was non-performing and past due over 90 days.
The Association also offers adjustable-rate mortgage loans with one, two, three and five year adjustment periods based on changes in a designated United States Treasury index. During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Association originated one adjustable rate mortgage for $700,000. In general, the adjustable rate mortgage loans provide for maximum rate adjustments of 200 basis points per adjustment, with a lifetime maximum adjustment of 600 basis points. Adjustable rate mortgage loans amortize over terms of up to 30 years.
Adjustable rate mortgage loans decrease the risk associated with changes in market interest rates by periodically repricing, but involve other risks because, as interest rates increase, the underlying payments by the borrower increase, thus increasing the potential for default by the borrower. At the same time, the marketability of the underlying collateral may be adversely affected by higher interest rates. Upward adjustment of the contractual interest rate is also limited by the maximum periodic and lifetime interest rate adjustments permitted by the loan documents, and therefore, is potentially limited in effectiveness during periods of rapidly rising interest rates. At December 31, 2011, $4.5 million, or 6.7% of the Association’s one- to four-family residential loans had adjustable rates of interest.
All one- to four-family residential mortgage loans that the Association originates include “due-on-sale” clauses, which give the Association the right to declare a loan immediately due and payable in the event that, among other things, the borrower sells or otherwise disposes of the real property subject to the mortgage and the loan is not repaid.
Regulations limit the amount that a savings association may lend relative to the appraised value of the real estate securing the loan, as determined by an appraisal of the property at the time the loan is originated. For all loans, the Association utilizes outside independent appraisers approved by the board of directors. All borrowers are required to obtain title insurance. The Association also requires homeowner’s insurance and fire and casualty insurance and, where circumstances warrant, flood insurance on properties securing real estate loans.
Multi-Family Real Estate Loans. Loans secured by multi-family real estate totaled approximately $5.7 million, or 5.89% of the total loan portfolio at December 31, 2011. Multi-family real estate loans generally are secured by rental properties. Substantially all multi-family real estate loans are secured by properties located within the Association’s lending area. At December 31, 2011, the
5 |
Association had sixteen multi-family loans with an average principal balance of $359,000, and the largest multi-family real estate loan had a principal balance of $815,000. All of the loans secured by multi-family real estate properties are performing in accordance with their terms. Multi-family real estate loans generally are offered with adjustable interest rates that adjust after five years. Multi-family loans are originated for terms of up to 15 years. Multi-family real estate loan adjustments are tied to the prime rate as reported in The Wall Street Journal, or the FHLB five year advance rate.
The Association considers a number of factors in originating multi-family real estate loans. Management evaluates the qualifications and financial condition of the borrower (including credit history), profitability and expertise, as well as the value and condition of the mortgaged property securing the loan. When evaluating the qualifications of the borrower, management considers the financial resources of the borrower, the borrower’s experience in owning or managing similar property and the borrower’s payment history with the Association and other financial institutions. In evaluating the property securing the loan, the factors considered include the net operating income of the mortgaged property before debt service and depreciation, the debt service coverage ratio (the ratio of net operating income to debt service) to ensure that it is at least 125% of the debt service, and the ratio of the loan amount to the appraised value of the mortgaged property. Multi-family real estate loans are originated in amounts up to 75% of the appraised value of the mortgaged property securing the loan. All multi-family loans are appraised by outside independent appraisers approved by the board of directors. An environmental inspection, performed by an independent environmental engineer approved by the board of directors, may be required on certain loans. Personal guarantees may be obtained from multi-family real estate borrowers.
Loans secured by multi-family real estate generally involve a greater degree of credit risk than one- to four-family residential mortgage loans and carry larger loan balances. This increased credit risk is a result of several factors, including the concentration of principal in a limited number of loans and borrowers, the effects of general economic conditions on income producing properties, and the increased difficulty of evaluating and monitoring these types of loans. Furthermore, the repayment of loans secured by multi-family real estate typically depends upon the successful operation of the real estate property securing the loan. If the cash flow from the project is reduced, the borrower’s ability to repay the loan may be impaired.
Commercial Real Estate Loans. At December 31, 2011, $21.9 million, or 22.43% of the total loan portfolio consisted of commercial real estate loans. Commercial real estate loans are secured by office buildings, mixed use properties and other commercial properties. The Association generally originates adjustable rate commercial real estate loans, as well as balloon maturity loans, with maximum terms of up to 15 years. The maximum loan-to-value ratio of commercial real estate loans is 75%. At December 31, 2011, the Association had 39 commercial real estate loans with an average outstanding balance of $562,000. At December 31, 2011, the Association’s largest loan secured by commercial real estate was a $1.9 million loan. At December 31, 2011, this loan was performing in accordance with its terms. At December 31, 2011, three loans totaling $1.8 million, secured by commercial real estate were not performing in accordance their terms.
The Association considers a number of factors in originating commercial real estate loans. Management evaluates the qualifications and financial condition of the borrower (including credit history), profitability and expertise, as well as the value and condition of the mortgaged property securing the loan. When evaluating the qualifications of the borrower, management considers the financial resources of the borrower, the borrower’s experience in owning or managing similar property and the borrower’s payment history with the Association and other financial institutions. In evaluating the property securing the loan, the factors management considered include the net operating income of the mortgaged property before debt service and depreciation, the debt service coverage ratio (the ratio of net
6 |
operating income to debt service) to ensure that it is at least 125% of the debt service, and the ratio of the loan amount to the appraised value of the mortgaged property. All commercial real estate loans are appraised by outside independent appraisers approved by the board of directors. An environmental inspection is performed by an independent environmental engineer approved by the board of directors. Personal guarantees may be obtained from commercial real estate borrowers.
Loans secured by commercial real estate generally are larger than one- to four-family residential loans and involve greater credit risk. Commercial real estate loans often involve large loan balances to single borrowers or groups of related borrowers. Repayment of these loans depends to a large degree on the results of operations and management of the properties securing the loans or the businesses conducted on such property, and may be affected to a greater extent by adverse conditions in the real estate market or the economy in general.
Construction Loans. At December 31, 2011, $2.7 million, or 2.76% of the Association’s total loan portfolio consisted of construction loans. Construction loans are originated by the Association which currently offers adjustable-rate multi-family construction loans. The Association also participates in construction loans with adjustable rates for the construction of multifamily and non-residential real estate. At December 31, 2011, the largest construction loan was a $1.4 million participation of which $1.1 was advanced. The loan was non-performing and has a $309,000 specific valuation allowance. Construction loans have interest rates that adjust monthly and require the payment of interest only during the construction period. Construction loans will generally be made in amounts of up to 75% of the lower of the appraisal value of the property, or the actual cost of the improvements. Funds are disbursed in accordance with a schedule reflecting the completion of portions of the project. At December 31, 2011, the Association’s construction loans are secured by properties located in Brooklyn, Queens, Long Island and Manhattan.
Construction loans generally involve a greater degree of credit risk than one- to four-family residential mortgage loans. The risk of loss on a construction loan depends upon the accuracy of the initial estimate of the value of the property at completion of construction compared to the estimated cost of construction. If the estimated cost of construction is inaccurate, funds may have to be advanced beyond the original amount committed in order to protect the value of the property. An environmental inspection is performed by an independent environmental engineer.
In addition, because construction loans primarily consist of participation loans, the Company relies on other parties to document the loans. As a result, the Company has less control over the initial underwriting and monitoring of these loans.
Other Loans. The Association offers a variety of loans secured by real estate, or by property other than real estate. These loans include loans secured by deposits, home equity loans, and credit cards secured by deposit accounts, as well as unsecured credit cards and business loans. At December 31, 2011, these other loans totaled $201,000, or 0.21% of the total loan portfolio.
Origination and Servicing of Loans. Historically, the Association has originated mortgage loans pursuant to underwriting standards that generally conform with the Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac guidelines. Loan origination activities are primarily concentrated in Brooklyn, as well as the other four boroughs of New York City, and Long Island, New York. Properties securing real estate and construction loans are primarily located in Brooklyn, Queens, Long Island and Manhattan. New loans are generated primarily from walk-in customers, customer referrals, a network of mortgage brokers, and other parties with whom the Association does business, and from the efforts of employees and advertising. Loan applications are underwritten and processed at the main office. The Association services all loans that it originates.

Loan Approval Procedures and Authority. The loan approval process is intended to assess the borrower’s ability to repay the loan, the viability of the loan, and the adequacy of the value of the property that will secure the loan. To assess the borrower’s ability to repay, the Association reviews the employment and credit history and information on the historical and projected income and expenses of mortgagors or if applicable, the historical and projected income and expenses of the property. All loans are approved by the Board of Directors.
The Association requires appraisals of all real property securing loans, and if applicable, environmental inspections. Appraisals are performed by independent licensed appraisers. All appraisers are approved by the Board of Directors. The Association requires fire and extended coverage insurance in amounts at least equal to the principal amount of the loan.
Non-performing and Problem Assets
After a mortgage loan becomes 10 days past due, a computer generated late notice is delivered to the borrower. A second late notice is sent once the loan becomes 16 days past due. When a loan becomes 30 days delinquent, a delinquency notice is sent to the borrower and an attempt is made to make personal contact with the borrower by letter or telephone from the head of the collection department to establish an acceptable repayment schedule. When a mortgage loan is 90 days delinquent and no acceptable resolution has been reached, the loan is placed in foreclosure and the property collateral is appraised and inspected. Management is authorized to begin foreclosure proceedings on any loan after determining that it is prudent to do so.
8 |
Mortgage loans are reviewed on a regular basis and such loans, with the exception of loans guaranteed by the Federal Housing Administration, may be placed on non-accrual status when they become delinquent 90 days or more. When loans are placed on a non-accrual status, unpaid accrued interest is fully reserved, and further income is recognized only to the extent received. Loans guaranteed by the Federal Housing Administration may be placed on non-accrual status when they become delinquent 120 days or more.
Non-performing Loans. At December 31, 2011, $8.2 million, or 8.39%, of the Association’s total loans were non-performing loans.
Non-performing Assets. The table below sets forth the amounts and categories of the non-performing assets at the dates indicated. Delinquent loans that are 90 days or more past due are generally considered non-performing assets. There were no restructured loans past due 90 days or more, or in a nonaccrual status at December 31, 2011. At December 31, 2011, non-accruing loans consisted of twelve one-to-four-family residential loans of $4.2 million with a corresponding $124,000 of specific valuation allowance, three commercial real estate loans of $1.8 million with a corresponding $615,000 of specific valuation allowance and two construction loan participations of $2.2 million with a corresponding $407,000 of specific valuation allowance.

Classified Assets. Office of the Comptroller of the Currency regulations and the Association’s Asset Classification Policy provide that loans and other assets considered to be of lesser quality be classified as “substandard,” “doubtful” or “loss” assets. An asset is considered “substandard” if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. “Substandard” assets include those characterized by the “distinct possibility” that the institution will sustain “some loss” if the deficiencies are not corrected. Assets classified as “doubtful” have all of the weaknesses inherent in those classified “substandard,” with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make “collection or liquidation in full,” on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, “highly questionable and improbable.” 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. Management classifies an asset as “special mention” if the asset has a potential weakness that warrants management’s close attention. While such assets are not impaired, management has concluded that if the potential weakness in the asset is not addressed, the value of the asset may deteriorate, adversely affecting the repayment of the asset.
An insured institution is required to establish general allowances for loan losses in an amount deemed prudent by management for loans classified substandard or doubtful, as well as for other problem loans. General allowances represent loss allowances which have been established to recognize the inherent losses associated with lending activities, but which, unlike specific allowances, have not been allocated to particular problem assets. When an insured institution classifies problem assets as “loss,” it is required either to establish a specific allowance for losses equal to 100% of the amount of the asset so classified or to charge off such amount. An institution’s determination as to the classification of its assets and the amount of its valuation allowances is subject to review by bank regulators that can order the establishment of additional general or specific loss allowances.

On the basis of management’s review of its assets, at December 31, 2011 the Association had classified $4.2 million in one- to four-family residential loans, $2.3 million in commercial real estate loans and $2.6 million in construction loan participations, respectively, as substandard and $1.7 million in one to four family residential loans and $515,000 in construction and land loan participations as special mention. The substandard construction loans of $2.6 million have specific valuation allowances of $407,000. The substandard one-to four-family residential loans of $4.2 million have valuation allowances of $124,000. The substandard commercial real estate loans of $2.3 million have valuation allowances of $623,000
The loan portfolio is reviewed on a regular basis to determine whether any loans require classification in accordance with applicable regulations. Not all classified assets constitute non-performing assets.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The Association’s allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level necessary to absorb loan losses which are both probable and reasonably estimable. Management, in determining the allowance for loan losses, considers the losses inherent in its loan portfolio and changes in the nature and volume of loan activities, along with the general economic and real estate market conditions. Management utilizes a two-tier approach: (1) identification of impaired loans and establishment of specific loss allowances on such loans; and (2) establishment of general valuation allowances on the remainder of the loan portfolio. Management maintains a loan review system, which allows for a periodic review of the loan portfolio and the early identification of potential impaired loans. Such system takes into consideration, among other things, delinquency status, size of loans, type and market value of collateral and financial condition of the borrowers. Specific loan loss allowances are established for identified losses based on a review of such information. A loan evaluated for impairment is considered to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Association will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. All loans identified as impaired are evaluated independently. Management does not aggregate such loans for evaluation purposes. Loan impairment is measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or, as a practical expedient, at the loan’s observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. General loan loss allowances are based upon a combination of factors including, but not limited to, actual loan loss experience, composition of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions, management’s judgment and losses which are probable and reasonably estimable. The allowance is increased through provisions charged against current earnings and recoveries of previously charged-off loans. Loans which are determined to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance. While management uses available information to recognize probable and reasonably estimable loan losses, future loss provisions may be necessary based on changing economic conditions. The allowance for loan losses as of December 31, 2011 is maintained at a level that represents management’s best estimate of losses inherent in the loan portfolio, and such losses were both probable and reasonably estimable.
Payments received on impaired loans are applied to principal. The Association had 21 loans totaling $9.6 million deemed to be impaired at December 31, 2011, and had 21 loans totaling $9.0 million deemed to be impaired at December 31, 2010. Impaired loans consisted of four construction loan participations of $2.2 million having $407,000 of specific valuation allowance, with a net balance of $1.8 million, four commercial real estate loans of $2.3 million having $623,000 of specific allowances, with a net balance of $1.7 million and 15 residential real estate loans of $5.1 million having specific allowances of $260,000 with a net balance of $4.9 million.

In addition, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, as an integral part of its examination process, will periodically review the allowance for loan losses. The OCC may require that the Association recognize additions to the allowance based on its evaluation of information available to it at the time of the examination.

Allocation of Allowance for Loan Losses. The following table presents an analysis of the allocation of the allowance for loan losses at the dates indicated. The allocation of the allowance to each category is not necessarily indicative of future loss in any particular category and does not restrict the use of the allowance to absorb losses in other categories. The total amount of loan loss allowance of $2.2 million as of year ended December 31, 2011 includes specific valuation allowances of $1.3 million. The total amount of loan loss allowance of $1.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 includes specific valuation allowances of $898,000.

Each quarter, management evaluates the total balance of the allowance for loan losses based on several factors that are not loan specific, but are reflective of the inherent losses in the loan portfolio. This process includes, but is not limited to, a periodic review of loan collectability in light of historical experience, the nature and volume of loan activity, conditions that may affect the ability of the borrower to repay, underlying value of collateral, if applicable, and economic conditions in the Association’s immediate market area. First, loans are grouped by delinquency status. All loans 90 days or more delinquent are evaluated individually, based primarily on the value of the collateral securing the loan. Specific loss allowances are established as required by this analysis. All loans for which a specific loss allowance has not been assigned are segregated by type and delinquency status and a loss allowance is established by using loss experience data and management’s judgment concerning other matters it considers significant. The allowance is allocated to each category of loan based on the results of the above analysis. Small differences between the allocated balances and recorded allowances are reflected as unallocated to absorb losses resulting from the inherent imprecision involved in the loss analysis process.
This analysis process is inherently subjective, as it requires estimates that are susceptible to revisions as more information becomes available. Although management believes that it has established the allowance at levels to absorb probable and estimable losses, future additions may be necessary if economic or other conditions in the future differ from the current environment.

Sources of Funds
General. Deposits have traditionally been the primary source of funds for use in lending and investment activities. In addition to deposits, funds are derived from scheduled loan payments, investment maturities, loan prepayments and income on earning assets. While scheduled loan payments and income on earning assets are relatively stable sources of funds, deposit inflows and outflows can vary widely and are influenced by prevailing interest rates, market conditions and levels of competition. Borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York may be used in the short-term to compensate for reductions in deposits and to fund loan growth.
Deposits. Deposits are not actively solicited outside of the New York City metropolitan area, and substantially all of the depositors are persons who work or reside in Brooklyn, New York. The Association offers a selection of deposit instruments, including demand deposits consisting of non-interest bearing and NOW accounts, passbook savings and club accounts, and fixed-term certificates of deposit. Deposit account terms vary, with the principal differences being the minimum balance required, the amount of time the funds must remain on deposit and the interest rate. The Association does not accept brokered deposits.
Interest rates paid, maturity terms, service fees and withdrawal penalties are established on a periodic basis. Deposit rates and terms are based primarily on current operating strategies and market rates, liquidity requirements, rates paid by competitors and growth goals. Personalized customer service and long-standing relationships with customers are relied upon to attract and retain deposits.
The flow of deposits is influenced significantly by general economic conditions, changes in money market and other prevailing interest rates and competition. The variety of deposit accounts offered allows the Association to be competitive in obtaining funds and responding to changes in consumer demand. Based on experience, management believes the deposits in the Association are relatively stable. However, the ability to attract and maintain certificates of deposit, and the rates paid on these deposits have been and will continue to be significantly affected by market conditions. At December 31, 2011, $76.1 million, or 66.20% of deposit accounts were certificates of deposit, of which $59.8 million have maturities of one year or less.

Prior to the Small Business Protection Act of 1996 (the “1996 Act”), Flatbush Federal Savings and Loan Association was permitted to establish a reserve for bad debts and to make annual additions to the reserve. These additions could, within specified formula limits, be deducted in arriving at our taxable income. Flatbush Federal Savings and Loan Association was required to use the specific charge off method in computing its bad debt deduction beginning with its 1996 federal tax return. Savings institutions were required to recapture any excess reserves over those established as of December 31, 1987 (base year reserve). Flatbush Federal Savings and Loan Association had approximately $3.4 million of pre-1988 bad debt reserves that are subject to recapture. During 2010, amendments of the New York State and New York City’s tax law and ordinance conformed the bad debt deduction to the deduction allowed under the Federal income tax law for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2010.
Taxable Distributions and Recapture. Prior to the 1996 Act, bad debt reserves created prior to January 1, 1988 were subject to recapture into taxable income if Flatbush Federal Savings and Loan Association failed to meet certain thrift asset and definitional tests. Federal legislation has eliminated these thrift related recapture rules.
At December 31, 2011, our total federal pre-1988 base year reserve was approximately $3.4 million. Under current law, pre-1988 base year reserves remain subject to recapture if Flatbush Federal Savings and Loan Association makes certain non-dividend distributions, repurchases any of its stock, pays dividends in excess of tax earnings and profits, or ceases to maintain a bank charter.
Alternative Minimum Tax. The Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), imposes an alternative minimum tax (“AMT”) at a rate of 20% on a base of regular taxable income plus certain tax preferences (“alternative minimum taxable income” or “AMTI”). The AMT is payable to the extent such AMTI is in excess of an exemption amount and the AMT exceeds the regular income tax. Net operating losses can offset no more than 90% of AMTI. Certain payments of AMT may be used as credits against regular tax liabilities in future years. At December 31, 2011, Flatbush Federal Savings and Loan Association had no AMT credits for carryover.
Net Operating Loss Carryovers. A financial institution may carry back net operating losses to the preceding two taxable years and forward to the succeeding 20 taxable years. At December 31, 2011, Flatbush Federal Savings and Loan Association had $634,000 in net operating loss carry forwards for federal income tax purposes and $1.1 million for New York State and New York City purposes.

Corporate Dividends-Received Deduction. Flatbush Federal Bancorp, Inc. may exclude from its income 100% of dividends received from Flatbush Federal Savings and Loan Association as a member of the same affiliated group of corporations. The corporate dividends-received deduction is 80% in the case of dividends received from corporations with which a corporate recipient does not file a consolidated return, and corporations which own less than 20% of the stock of a corporation distributing a dividend may deduct only 70% of dividends received or accrued on their behalf.
State Taxation
New York State Taxation. Flatbush Federal Bancorp, Inc. and Flatbush Federal Savings and Loan Association will report income on a calendar year basis to New York State. New York State franchise tax on corporations is imposed in an amount equal to the greater of (a) 7.1% of “entire net income” allocable to New York State, (b) 3% of “alternative entire net income” allocable to New York State, (c) 0.01% of the average value of assets allocable to New York State, or (d) nominal minimum tax. Entire net income is based on Federal taxable income, subject to certain modifications. Alternative entire net income is equal to entire net income without certain modifications.
Personnel
As of December 31, 2011, the Company had 36 full-time employees and one part-time employee. The employees are not represented by any collective bargaining group. Management believes that the Company has good relations with its employees.
SUPERVISION AND REGULATION
General
The Association is examined and supervised by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”) and subject to the regulation of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). This regulation and supervision establishes a comprehensive framework of activities in which an institution may engage and is intended primarily for the protection of the FDIC’s deposit insurance funds and depositors. Under this system of federal regulation, financial institutions are periodically examined to ensure that they satisfy applicable standards with respect to their capital adequacy, assets, management, earnings, liquidity and sensitivity to market interest rates. Following completion of its examination, the federal agency critiques the institution’s operations and assigns its rating (known as an institution’s CAMELS rating). Under federal law, an institution may not disclose its CAMELS rating to the public. The Association also is a member of and owns stock in the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York, which is one of the twelve regional banks in the Federal Home Loan Bank System. The Association also is regulated to a lesser extent by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve”), governing reserves to be maintained against deposits and other matters. The Association’s relationship with its depositors and borrowers also is regulated to a great extent by both federal and state laws, especially in matters concerning the ownership of deposit accounts and the form and content of the Association’s mortgage documents.
Historically, the Office of Thrift Supervision (“OTS”) examined the Association and prepared reports for the consideration of its board of directors on any operating deficiencies. As of July 21, 2011, the OTS ceased operations pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) and regulation and supervision of the Association was transferred to the OCC and regulation and supervision of Flatbush MHC and the Company was transferred to the Federal Reserve Board.
20 |
The Dodd-Frank Act also provided for the creation of a new agency, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (“CFPB”), as an independent bureau of the Federal Reserve, to take over the implementation of federal consumer financial protection and fair lending laws from the depository institution regulators. However, institutions of $10 billion or fewer in assets will continue to be examined for compliance with such laws and regulations by, and subject to the primary enforcement authority of, the prudential regulator rather than the CFPB.
Certain regulatory requirements applicable to the Association, the Company and Flatbush MHC are referred to below or appear elsewhere in this Form 10-K. This regulatory discussion, however, does not purport to be an exhaustive treatment of applicable laws and regulations. Any change in these laws or regulations, whether by the FDIC, the OCC, the Federal Reserve or Congress, could have a material adverse impact on the Association, the Company and Flatbush MHC operations.
In addition to eliminating the OTS and creating the CFPB, the Dodd-Frank Act, among other things, requires changes in the way that institutions are assessed for deposit insurance, mandated the imposition of consolidated capital requirements on savings and loan holding companies, required that originators of securitized loans retain a percentage of the risk for the transferred loans, directed the Federal Reserve to regulate pricing of certain debit card interchange fees, reduces the federal preemption afforded to federal savings associations and contained a number of reforms related to mortgage originations. Many of the provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act contain delayed effective dates and/or require the issuance of regulations. As a result, it will be some time before their impact on operations can be assessed by management. However, there is significant possibility that the Dodd-Frank Act will, at a minimum, result in an increased regulatory burden and higher compliance, operating, and possibly, interest costs for the Company and the Bank.
Federal Banking Regulation
Business Activities. A federal savings association derives its lending and investment powers from the Home Owners’ Loan Act, as amended, and the regulations of the OCC. Under these laws and regulations, the Association may invest in mortgage loans secured by residential and commercial real estate, commercial business and consumer loans, certain types of debt securities and certain other assets. Certain types of lending, such as commercial and consumer loans, are subject to an aggregate limit calculated as a specified percentage of the Association’s capital or assets. The Association also may establish subsidiaries that may engage in activities not otherwise permissible for the Association, including real estate investment and securities and insurance brokerage.
The Dodd-Frank Act authorized, for the first time, the payment of interest on commercial checking accounts effective July 21, 2011.
Capital Requirements. OCC regulations require savings associations to meet three minimum capital standards: a 1.5% tangible capital ratio, a 4% leverage ratio (3% for associations receiving the highest rating on the CAMELS rating system) and an 8% risk-based capital ratio. The prompt corrective action standards discussed below, in effect, establish a minimum 2% tangible capital standard.
The risk-based capital standard for savings associations requires the maintenance of Tier 1 (core) and total capital (which is defined as core capital and supplementary capital) to risk-weighted assets of at least 4% and 8%, respectively. In determining the amount of risk-weighted assets, all assets, including certain off-balance sheet assets, are multiplied by a risk-weight factor of 0% to 100%, assigned by the
21 |
OCC based on the risks believed inherent in the type of asset. Core capital is defined as common stockholders’ equity (including retained earnings), certain noncumulative perpetual preferred stock and related surplus and minority interests in equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries, less intangibles other than certain mortgage servicing rights and credit card relationships. The components of supplementary capital currently include cumulative preferred stock, long-term perpetual preferred stock, mandatory convertible securities, subordinated debt and intermediate preferred stock, the allowance for loan and lease losses limited to a maximum of 1.25% of risk-weighted assets and up to 45% of net unrealized gains on available-for-sale equity securities with readily determinable fair market values. Overall, the amount of supplementary capital included as part of total capital cannot exceed 100% of core capital.
At December 31, 2011, the Association’s capital exceeded all applicable requirements.
Loans-to-One Borrower. A federal savings association generally may not make a loan or extend credit to a single or related group of borrowers in excess of 15% of unimpaired capital and surplus. An additional amount may be loaned, equal to 10% of unimpaired capital and surplus, if the loan is secured by readily marketable collateral, which generally does not include real estate. As of December 31, 2011, the Association was in compliance with the loans-to-one borrower limitations.
Qualified Thrift Lender Test. As a federal savings association, the Association is subject to a qualified thrift lender test (“QTL test”). Under the QTL test, the Association must maintain at least 65% of its “portfolio assets” in “qualified thrift investments” in at least nine of the most recent 12 month period. “Portfolio assets” generally means total assets of a savings institution, less the sum of specified liquid assets up to 20% of total assets, goodwill and other intangible assets, and the value of property used in the conduct of the savings association’s business.
“Qualified thrift investments” includes various types of loans made for residential and housing purposes, investments related to such purposes, including certain mortgage-backed and related securities, and loans for personal, family, household and certain other purposes up to a limit of 20% of portfolio assets. “Qualified thrift investments” also include 100% of an institution’s credit card loans, education loans and small business loans. The Association also may satisfy the QTL test by qualifying as a “domestic building and loan association” as defined in the Internal Revenue Code.
A savings association that fails the QTL test must operate under specified restrictions, including as to dividends. The Dodd-Frank Act made noncompliance with the QTL test potentially subject to agency enforcement action for violation of law. At December 31, 2011, the Association maintained approximately 74.10% of its portfolio assets in qualified thrift investments.
Capital Distributions. OCC regulations govern capital distributions by a federal savings association, which include cash dividends, stock repurchases and other transactions charged to the capital account. A savings association must file an application for approval of a capital distribution if:
• | the total capital distributions for the applicable calendar year exceed the sum of the association’s net income for that year to date plus the association’s retained net income for the preceding two years; | |
• | the association would not be at least adequately capitalized following the distribution; | |
• | the distribution would violate any applicable statute, regulation, agreement or OCC-imposed condition; or | |
• | the association is not eligible for expedited treatment of its filings. |
22 |
Even if an application is not otherwise required, every savings association that is a subsidiary of a holding company must still file a notice with the Federal Reserve at least 30 days before the board of directors declares a dividend or approves a capital distribution with an informational copy of the notice sent to the OCC.
The regulators may disapprove a notice or application if:
• | the association would be undercapitalized following the distribution; | |
• | the proposed capital distribution raises safety and soundness concerns; or | |
• | the capital distribution would violate a prohibition contained in any statute, regulation or agreement. |
In addition, the Federal Deposit Insurance Act provides that an insured depository institution shall not make any capital distribution, if after making such distribution the institution would be undercapitalized.
Liquidity. A federal savings association is required to maintain a sufficient amount of liquid assets to ensure its safe and sound operation.
Community Reinvestment Act and Fair Lending Laws. All savings associations have a responsibility under the Community Reinvestment Act and related regulations of the OCC to help meet the credit needs of their communities, including low- and moderate-income neighborhoods. In connection with its examination of a federal savings association, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency is required to assess the association’s record of compliance with the Community Reinvestment Act. In addition, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act and the Fair Housing Act prohibit lenders from discriminating in their lending practices on the basis of characteristics specified in those statutes. An association’s failure to comply with the provisions of the Community Reinvestment Act could, at a minimum, result in denial of certain corporate applications such as branches or mergers, or restrictions on its activities. The failure to comply with the Equal Credit Opportunity Act and the Fair Housing Act could result in enforcement actions by the OCC, as well as other federal regulatory agencies and the Department of Justice. The Association received a satisfactory Community Reinvestment Act rating in its most recent federal examination.
Transactions with Related Parties. A federal savings association’s authority to engage in transactions with its “affiliates” is limited by OCC regulations and by Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act (the “FRA”). The term “affiliates” for these purposes generally means any company that controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with an institution. The Compapny is an affiliate of Flatbush Federal Savings and Loan Association. In general, transactions with affiliates must be on terms that are as favorable to the association as comparable transactions with non-affiliates. In addition, certain types of these transactions are restricted to an aggregate percentage of the association’s capital. Collateral in specified amounts must usually be provided by affiliates in order to receive loans from the association. In addition, federal law prohibits a savings association from lending to any of its affiliates that are engaged in activities that are not permissible for bank holding companies and from purchasing the securities of any affiliate, other than a subsidiary.
The Association’s authority to extend credit to its directors, executive officers and 10% shareholders, as well as to entities controlled by such persons, is currently governed by the requirements of Sections 22(g) and 22(h) of the FRA and Regulation O of the Federal Reserve. Among other things,
23 |
these provisions require that extensions of credit to insiders (i) be made on terms that are substantially the same as, and follow credit underwriting procedures that are not less stringent than, those prevailing for comparable transactions with unaffiliated persons and that do not involve more than the normal risk of repayment or present other unfavorable features, and (ii) not exceed certain limitations on the amount of credit extended to such persons, individually and in the aggregate, which limits are based, in part, on the amount of the Association’s capital. In addition, extensions of credit in excess of certain limits must be approved by the Association’s Board of Directors.
Enforcement. The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency has primary enforcement responsibility over federal savings institutions and has the authority to bring enforcement action against all “institution-affiliated parties,” including stockholders, and attorneys, appraisers and accountants who knowingly or recklessly participate in wrongful action likely to have an adverse effect on an insured institution. Formal enforcement action may range from the issuance of a capital directive or cease and desist order to removal of officers and/or directors of the institution, receivership, conservatorship or the termination of deposit insurance. Civil penalties cover a wide range of violations and actions, and range up to $25,000 per day, unless a finding of reckless disregard is made, in which case penalties may be as high as $1 million per day. The FDIC also has the authority to recommend to the OCC that enforcement action be taken with respect to a particular savings institution. If action is not taken by the OCC, the FDIC has authority to take action under specified circumstances.
Standards for Safety and Soundness. Federal law requires each federal banking agency to prescribe certain standards for all insured depository institutions. These standards relate to, among other things, internal controls, information systems and audit systems, loan documentation, credit underwriting, interest rate risk exposure, asset growth, compensation, and other operational and managerial standards as the agency deems appropriate. The federal banking agencies adopted Interagency Guidelines Prescribing Standards for Safety and Soundness to implement the safety and soundness standards required under federal law. The guidelines set forth the safety and soundness standards that the federal banking agencies use to identify and address problems at insured depository institutions before capital becomes impaired. The guidelines address internal controls and information systems, internal audit systems, credit underwriting, loan documentation, interest rate risk exposure, asset growth, compensation, fees and benefits. If the appropriate federal banking agency determines that an institution fails to meet any standard prescribed by the guidelines, the agency may require the institution to submit to the agency an acceptable plan to achieve compliance with the standard. If an institution fails to meet these standards, the appropriate federal banking agency may require the institution to submit a compliance plan.
Prompt Corrective Action Regulations. Under the prompt corrective action regulations, the OCC is required and authorized to take supervisory actions against undercapitalized savings associations. For this purpose, a savings association is placed in one of the following five categories based on the association’s capital:
• | well-capitalized (at least 5% leverage capital, 6% Tier 1 risk-based capital and 10% total risk-based capital); | |
• | adequately capitalized (at least 4% leverage capital, 4% Tier 1 risk-based capital and 8% total risk-based capital); | |
• | undercapitalized (less than 8% total risk-based capital, 4% Tier 1 risk-based capital or 3% leverage capital); | |
• | significantly undercapitalized (less than 6% total risk-based capital, 3% Tier 1 risk-based capital or 3% leverage capital); and | |
• | critically undercapitalized (less than 2% tangible capital). |
24 |
Generally, the banking regulator is required to appoint a receiver or conservator for an association that is “critically undercapitalized” within specific time frames. The regulations also provide that a capital restoration plan must be filed with the OCC within 45 days of the date an association receives notice that it is “undercapitalized,” “significantly undercapitalized” or “critically undercapitalized,” the performance of which must be guaranteed by any company controlling the association up to specified limits. In addition, numerous mandatory supervisory actions become immediately applicable to the association, including, but not limited to, restrictions on growth, investment activities, capital distributions and affiliate transactions. The OCC may also take any one of a number of discretionary supervisory actions against undercapitalized associations, including the issuance of a capital directive and the replacement of senior executive officers and directors.
At December 31, 2011, the Association met the criteria for being considered “well-capitalized.”
Insurance of Deposit Accounts. The Association’s deposits are insured up to applicable limits by the Deposit Insurance Fund (“DIF”) of the FDIC. The Dodd-Frank Act made permanent the previous temporary increase in deposit insurance coverage from $100,000 to $250,000 per depositor.
Under the FDIC’s existing risk-based assessment system, insured institutions are assigned to one of four risk categories based on supervisory evaluations, regulatory capital levels and certain other factors, with less risky institutions paying lower assessments. An institution’s assessment rate depends upon the category to which it is assigned, and certain adjustments specified by FDIC regulations. Assessment rates, as adjusted, previously ranged from seven to 77.5 basis points of assessable deposits. On February 7, 2011, the FDIC issued final rules, effective April 1, 2011, implementing changes to the assessment rules resulting from the Dodd-Frank Act. Initially, the base assessment rates will range from two and one-half to 45 basis points of total average assets less tangible capital (rather than deposits). The rate schedules will automatically adjust in the future when the DIF reaches certain milestones. No institution may pay a dividend if in default of the federal deposit insurance assessment.
The FDIC imposed on all insured institutions a special emergency assessment of five basis points of total assets minus Tier 1 capital (as of June 30, 2009), capped at ten basis points of an institution’s deposit assessment base, in order to cover losses to the DIF. That special assessment was collected on September 30, 2009. The FDIC provided for similar assessment during the final two quarters of 2009, if deemed necessary.
However, in lieu of further special assessments, the FDIC required insured institutions to prepay estimated quarterly risk-based assessments for the fourth quarter of 2009 through the fourth quarter of 2012. The estimated assessments which included an assumed annual base increase of 5%, were recorded as a prepaid expense asset as of December 31, 2009, and each quarter thereafter, a charge to earnings is recorded for each regulator assessment with an offsetting credit to the prepaid asset. The Association’s prepayment for 2010, 2011 and 2012 amounted to $599,901.
The Dodd-Frank Act increased the minimum target DIF ratio from 1.15% of estimated insured deposits to 1.35% of estimated insured deposits. The FDIC must seek to achieve the 1.35% ratio by September 30, 2020. Insured institutions with assets of $10 billion or more are supposed to fund the increase. The Dodd-Frank Act eliminated the 1.5% maximum fund ratio, instead leaving it to the discretion of the FDIC. The FDIC has exercised that discretion by establishing a long range fund ratio of 2%.
25 |
The FDIC has authority to increase insurance assessments. A significant increase in insurance premiums would likely have an adverse effect on the operating expenses and results of operations of the Association. Management cannot predict what insurance assessment rates will be in the future.
Insurance of deposits may be terminated by the FDIC upon a finding that an institution has engaged in unsafe or unsound practices, is in an unsafe or unsound condition to continue operations or has violated any applicable law, regulation, rule, order or condition imposed by the FDIC. We do not know of any practice, condition or violation that might lead to termination of the Association’s deposit insurance.
In addition to the FDIC assessments, the Financing Corporation (“FICO”) is authorized to impose and collect, with the approval of the FDIC, assessments for anticipated payments, issuance costs and custodial fees on bonds issued by the FICO in the 1980s to recapitalize the former Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation. The bonds issued by the FICO are due to mature in 2017 through 2019. For the quarter ended December 31, 2011, the annualized FICO assessment was equal to 0.68 basis points of total average assets less tangible capital.
In October 2008, the FDIC announced the Transaction Account Guarantee Program as part of the FDIC’s Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program. Under the Transaction Account Guarantee Program, any participating depository institution was able to provide full deposit insurance coverage for non-interest bearing transaction accounts, regardless of the dollar amount. The Association participated in the Transaction Account Guarantee Program until the program, as extended, expired on December 31, 2010. The Dodd-Frank Act extended unlimited deposit insurance coverage for certain non-interest bearing transaction accounts until December 31, 2012.
Prohibitions Against Tying Arrangements. Federal savings associations are prohibited, subject to some exceptions, from extending credit to or offering any other service, or fixing or varying the consideration for such extension of credit or service, on the condition that the customer obtain some additional service from the institution or its affiliates or not obtain services of a competitor of the institution.
Federal Home Loan Bank System. The Association is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank System (“FHLB”), which consists of 12 regional Federal Home Loan Banks. The FHLB provides a central credit facility primarily for member institutions. As a member, the Association is required to acquire and hold specified shares of capital stock in the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York. As of December 31, 2011, Flatbush Federal was in compliance with this requirement.
The dividend yield from Federal Home Loan Bank stock was 4.84% for the year ended December 31, 2011. The Federal Home Loan Bank of New York paid quarterly dividends in 2011 and 2010 totaling $36,000 and $58,000, respectively. No assurance can be given that it will pay any dividends in the future.
Federal Reserve System
The Federal Reserve Board regulations require savings associations to maintain non-interest-earning reserves against their transaction accounts, such as negotiable order of withdrawal and regular checking accounts. At December 31, 2011, Flatbush Federal was in compliance with these reserve requirements.

The USA PATRIOT Act
In response to the events of September 11, 2001, Congress enacted in 2001 the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001, or the “USA PATRIOT Act,” which was signed into law on October 26, 2001. The USA PATRIOT Act gives the federal government new powers to address terrorist threats through enhanced domestic security measures, expanded surveillance powers, increased information sharing and broadened anti-money laundering requirements.
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”) contains a range of corporate accounting and reporting reforms that are intended to address corporate and accounting fraud. In addition to the establishment of a new accounting oversight board that will enforce auditing, quality control and independence standards and will be funded by fees from all publicly traded companies, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act places certain restrictions on the scope of services that may be provided by accounting firms to their public company audit clients. Any non-audit services being provided to a public company audit client will require preapproval by the company’s audit committee. In addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act makes certain changes to the requirements for audit partner rotation after a period of time. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires chief executive officers and chief financial officers, or their equivalent, to certify to the accuracy of periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), subject to civil and criminal penalties if they knowingly or willingly violate this certification requirement. In addition, under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, counsel will be required to report evidence of a material violation of the securities laws or a breach of fiduciary duty by a company to its chief executive officer or its chief legal officer, and, if such officer does not appropriately respond, to report such evidence to the audit committee or other similar committee of the board of directors or the board itself.
Under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, longer prison terms will apply to corporate executives who violate federal securities laws; the period during which certain types of suits can be brought against a company or its officers is extended; and bonuses issued to top executives prior to restatement of a company’s financial statements are now subject to disgorgement if such restatement was due to corporate misconduct. Executives are also prohibited from insider trading during retirement plan “blackout” periods, and loans to company executives (other than loans by financial institutions permitted by federal rules and regulations) are restricted. In addition, a provision directs that civil penalties levied by the SEC as a result of any judicial or administrative action under the Act be deposited to a fund for the benefit of harmed investors. The Federal Accounts for Investor Restitution provision also requires the SEC to develop methods of improving collection rates. The legislation accelerates the time frame for disclosures by public companies, as they must immediately disclose any material changes in their financial condition or operations. Directors and executive officers must also provide information for most changes in ownership in a company’s securities within two business days of the change.
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act also increases the oversight of, and codifies certain requirements relating to audit committees of public companies and how they interact with the company’s “registered public accounting firm.” Audit Committee members must be independent and are absolutely barred from accepting consulting, advisory or other compensatory fees from the issuer. In addition, companies must disclose whether at least one member of the committee is a “financial expert” (as such term will be defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission) and if not, why not. Under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, a company’s registered public accounting firm will be prohibited from performing statutorily mandated audit services for a company if such company’s chief executive officer, chief financial officer, comptroller, chief accounting officer or any person serving in equivalent positions had been employed by such firm and participated in the audit of such company during the one-year period preceding the audit
27 |
initiation date. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act also prohibits any officer or director of a company or any other person acting under their direction from taking any action to fraudulently influence, coerce, manipulate or mislead any independent accountant engaged in the audit of the company’s financial statements for the purpose of rendering the financial statements materially misleading. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act also requires the SEC to prescribe rules requiring inclusion of any internal control report and assessment by management in the annual report to shareholders.
Management has incurred certain costs and continues to evaluate the estimated cost of ongoing compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.
Holding Company Regulation
General. Flatbush, MHC and the Company are nondiversified savings and loan holding companies within the meaning of the Home Owners’ Loan Act, and are subject to Federal Reserve Board regulations, examinations, supervision and reporting requirements. In addition, the Federal Reserve Board has enforcement authority over the Company and Flatbush MHC, and their subsidiaries. Among other things, this authority permits the Federal Reserve Board to restrict or prohibit activities that are determined to be a serious risk to the Association. As federal corporations, the Company and Flatbush MHC are generally not subject to state business organization laws.
Permitted Activities. Pursuant to Section 10(o) of the Home Owners’ Loan Act and Federal Reserve Board regulations and policy, a mutual holding company and a federally chartered mid-tier holding company such as the Company and Flatbush MHC, may engage in the following activities: (i) investing in the stock of a savings association; (ii) acquiring a mutual association through the merger of such association into a savings association subsidiary of such holding company or an interim savings association subsidiary of such holding company; (iii) merging with or acquiring another holding company, one of whose subsidiaries is a savings association; (iv) investing in a corporation, the capital stock of which is available for purchase by a savings association under federal law or under the law of any state where the subsidiary savings association or associations share their home offices; (v) furnishing or performing management services for a savings association subsidiary of such company; (vi) holding, managing or liquidating assets owned or acquired from a savings subsidiary of such company; (vii) holding or managing properties used or occupied by a savings association subsidiary of such company; (viii) acting as trustee under deeds of trust; (ix) any other activity (A) that the Federal Reserve, by regulation, has determined to be permissible for bank holding companies under Section 4(c) of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, unless the Federal Reserve, by regulation, prohibits or limits any such activity for savings and loan holding companies; or (B) in which multiple savings and loan holding companies were authorized (by regulation) to directly engage on March 5, 1987; (x) any activity permissible for financial holding companies under Section 4(k) of the Bank Holding Company Act, including securities and insurance underwriting; and (xi) purchasing, holding, or disposing of stock acquired in connection with a qualified stock issuance if the purchase of such stock by such savings and loan holding company is approved by the Federal Reserve. If a mutual holding company acquires or merges with another holding company, the holding company acquired or the holding company resulting from such merger or acquisition may only invest in assets and engage in activities listed in (i) through (xi) above, and has a period of two years to cease any nonconforming activities and divest of any nonconforming investments.
The Home Owners’ Loan Act prohibits a savings and loan holding company, including the Company and Flatbush MHC, directly or indirectly, or through one or more subsidiaries, from acquiring more than 5% of another savings institution or holding company thereof, without prior written approval of the Federal Reserve. It also prohibits the acquisition or retention of, with certain exceptions, more than 5% of a nonsubsidiary company engaged in activities other than those permitted by the Home Owners’
28 |
Loan Act; or acquiring or retaining control of an institution that is not federally insured. In evaluating applications by holding companies to acquire savings institutions, the Federal Reserve must consider the financial and managerial resources, future prospects of the company and institution involved, the effect of the acquisition on the risk to the insurance fund, the convenience and needs of the community and competitive factors.
The Federal Reserve is prohibited from approving any acquisition that would result in a multiple savings and loan holding company controlling savings institutions in more than one state, subject to two exceptions: (i) the approval of interstate supervisory acquisitions by savings and loan holding companies, and (ii) the acquisition of a savings institution in another state if the laws of the state of the target savings institution specifically permit such acquisitions. The states vary in the extent to which they permit interstate savings and loan holding company acquisitions.
Waivers of Dividends by Flatbush Federal Bancorp, MHC. The Dodd-Frank Act addressed the issue of dividend waivers in the context of the transfer of the supervision of savings and loan holding companies from the OTS to the Federal Reserve. The Dodd-Frank Act specified that dividends may be waived if certain conditions are met, including that the Federal Reserve does not object after being given written notice of the dividend and proposed waiver. The Dodd-Frank Act indicates that the Federal Reserve may not object to such a waiver (i) if the mutual holding company involved has, prior to December 1, 2009, reorganized into a mutual holding company structure, engaged in a minority stock offering and waived dividends; (ii) the board of directors of the mutual holding company expressly determines that a waiver of the dividend is consistent with its fiduciary duties to members and (iii) the waiver would not be detrimental to the safe and sound operation of the savings association subsidiaries of the holding company. Flatbush MHC was formed, engaged in a minority stock offering (through the Company) and waived dividends prior to December 1, 2009. The Federal Reserve Board has not previously permitted dividend waivers by bank holding companies that are mutuals and may object to dividend waivers involving mutual savings and loan holding companies, notwithstanding the referenced language in the Dodd-Frank Act.
Capital. Savings and loan holding companies are not currently subject to specific regulatory capital requirements. The Dodd-Frank Act, however, requires the Federal Reserve Board to promulgate consolidated capital requirements for depository institution holding companies that are no less stringent, both quantitatively and in terms of components of capital, than those applicable to insured institutions themselves. That will eliminate the inclusion of certain instruments, such as trust preferred securities, from Tier 1 capital. Instruments issued by mutual holding companies before May 19, 2010 will be grandfathered. There is a five year transition period from the July 21, 2010 date of enactment of the Dodd-Frank Act before the capital requirements will apply to savings and loan holding companies.
Source of Strength. The Dodd-Frank Act also extends the “source of strength” doctrine to savings and loan holding companies. The regulatory agencies must promulgate regulations implementing the “source of strength” policy that requires holding companies act as a source of strength to their subsidiary depository institutions by providing capital, liquidity and other support in times of financial stress.
Conversion of Flatbush Federal Bancorp, MHC to Stock Form. Federal regulations permit Flatbush MHC to convert from the mutual form of organization to the capital stock form of organization (a “Conversion Transaction”). There can be no assurance when, if ever, a Conversion Transaction will occur, and the Board of Directors has no current intention or plan to undertake a Conversion Transaction. In a Conversion Transaction, a new holding company would be formed as the successor to the Company (the “New Holding Company”), Flatbush MHC’s corporate existence would end, and certain depositors of the Association would receive the right to subscribe for additional shares of the New Holding

Company. In a Conversion Transaction, each share of common stock held by stockholders other than Flatbush Federal Bancorp, MHC (“Minority Stockholders”) would be automatically converted into a number of shares of common stock of the New Holding Company determined pursuant to an exchange ratio that ensures that Minority Stockholders own the same percentage of common stock in the New Holding Company as they owned in the Company immediately prior to the Conversion Transaction. Under federal regulations, Minority Stockholders would not be diluted because of any dividends waived by Flatbush MHC (and waived dividends would not be considered in determining an appropriate exchange ratio), in the event Flatbush MHC converts to stock form. The total number of shares held by Minority Stockholders after a Conversion Transaction also would be increased by any purchases by Minority Stockholders in the stock offering conducted as part of the Conversion Transaction.
The Dodd-Frank Act provides that waived dividends will not be considered in determining the appropriate exchange ratio after the transfer of responsibilities from the Office of Thrift Supervision to the Federal Reserve Board, provided that the mutual holding company involved was formed, engaged in a minority offering and waived dividends prior to December 1, 2009. Flatbush MHC was formed, engaged in a minority stock offering (through the Company) and waived dividend prior to December 1, 2009.

ITEMS 9A. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
(a) | Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. |
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the fiscal year (the “Evaluation Date”). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in timely alerting management to material information relating to the Company (including the Bank) required to be included in our periodic SEC filings.
(b) | Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. |
Management of the Company and the Bank are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s system of internal control is designed under the supervision of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).
Our internal control over financial reporting including policies and procedures that pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect transactions and dispositions of assets; provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, provide reasonable assurance that receipts and expenditures are made only in accordance with the authorization of management and the Board of Directors; and provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections on any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with policies and procedures may deteriorate.
As of December 31, 2011, management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based upon the framework established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Based upon its assessment, management believes that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011 is effective using these criteria. This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting, pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
35 |
(c) | Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting. |
There were no significant changes made in our internal controls during the period covered by this report or, to our knowledge, in other factors that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operation
The Company is a federal corporation, which was organized in 2003 as part of the mutual holding company reorganization of the Association. The Company’s principal asset is its investment in the Association. The Company is a majority owned subsidiary of Flatbush Federal Bancorp, MHC, (“Flatbush MHC”) a federally chartered mutual holding company. At December 31, 2011, 1,484,208 shares of the Company’s common stock were held by its Flatbush MHC, and 1,252,699 shares were held by shareholders other than Flatbush MHC. At December 31, 2011, the Company had consolidated assets of $142.7 million, deposits of $114.9 million and stockholders’ equity of $14.6 million.
On January 13, 2012, the Company consummated the sale of the Association’s main branch building and a portion of adjoining real estate to a third party for consideration of $10,136,000 and recognized a pre-tax gain of $9,072,000. This transaction is more fully described in Note 20 to the consolidated financial statements.
On March 13, 2012, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and between (i) Northfield Bank, Northfield Bancorp, Inc. (“Northfield Bancorp”), and Northfield Bancorp, MHC, and (ii) the Company, the Association and Flatbush Federal Bancorp, MHC. The Merger Agreement provides, among other things, that as a result of the merger of the Company into Northfield Bancorp (the “Mid-Tier Merger”), each outstanding share of the Company’s common stock will be converted into the right to receive 0.4748 shares of Northfield Bancorp common stock. The Merger Agreement contains a number of customary representations and warranties by the parties regarding certain aspects of their respective businesses, financial condition, structure and other facts pertinent to the Merger that are customary for a transaction of this kind. The obligation of the parties to complete the Merger is subject to various customary conditions. If the Merger is terminated under specified situations in the Merger Agreement (because the Company accepts a proposal to be acquired that is superior to the one contained in the Merger Agreement, enters into an agreement related to such a proposal and terminates the Merger Agreement, or fails to make, withdraws, modifies or qualifies its recommendation regarding the Merger Agreement), the Company may be required to pay a termination fee to Northfield Bancorp of approximately $700,000. The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, which was included in a Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 15, 2012.
General
The results of operations depend primarily on the Company’s net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between the interest income earned on interest-earning assets, consisting primarily of loans, investment securities, mortgage-backed securities and other interest-earning assets (primarily cash and cash equivalents), and the interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities, consisting of NOW accounts, passbook and club accounts, savings accounts, time deposits and borrowings. The results of operations also are affected by provisions for loan losses, non-interest income and non-interest expense. Non-interest income currently consists primarily of fees and service charges, increases to the cash surrender value of bank owned life insurance and miscellaneous other income (consisting of fees for minimum balance requirements, dormant deposit accounts, fees charged to third parties for document requests and sale of money orders and travelers checks). Non-interest expense currently consists primarily of salaries and employee benefits, equipment, occupancy costs, data processing, deposit insurance premiums, other insurance premiums, and other operating expenses (consisting of legal fees, director compensation, postage, stationery, professional fees and other operational expenses). The Company’s results of operations also may be affected significantly by general and local economic and competitive conditions, changes in market interest rates, governmental policies and actions of regulatory authorities.
Exhibit 13 -3 |
Critical Accounting Policies
The Company considers accounting policies involving significant judgments and assumptions by management that have, or could have, a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets or on income to be critical accounting policies. The Company considers allowance for loan losses, benefit plan assumptions and deferred income taxes to be critical accounting policies.
Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses is the estimated amount considered necessary to cover credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. The allowance is established through the provision for loan losses which is charged against income. In determining the allowance for loan losses, management makes significant estimates and has identified this policy as one of the most critical for the Company.
Management performs a quarterly evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. Consideration is given to a variety of factors in establishing this estimate including, but not limited to, current economic conditions, delinquency statistics, geographic and industry concentrations, the adequacy of the underlying collateral, the financial strength of the borrower, results of internal loan reviews and other relevant factors. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates that may be susceptible to significant change.
The analysis has two components, specific and general allocations. Specific allocations are made for loans that are determined to be impaired. Impairment is measured by determining the present value of expected future cash flows or, for collateral-dependent loans, the fair value of the collateral adjusted for market conditions and selling expenses. The general allocation is determined by segregating the remaining loans by type of loan, risk weighting (if applicable) and payment history. The Company also analyzes historical loss experience, delinquency trends, general economic conditions and geographic and industry concentrations. This analysis establishes factors that are applied to the loan groups to determine the amount of the general allowance. Actual loan losses may be significantly more than the loan loss allowance established which could have a material negative effect on the Company’s financial results.
Pension Plan Assumptions. Our pension plan costs are calculated using actuarial concepts, as required under accounting for defined benefit pension and other post retirement plans. Pension expense and the determination of our projected pension liability are based upon two critical assumptions: the discount rate and the expected return on plan assets. We evaluate each of these critical assumptions annually. Other assumptions impact the determination of pension expense and the projected liability including the primary employee demographics, such as retirement patterns, employee turnover, mortality rates, and estimated employer compensation increases. These factors, along with the critical assumptions, are carefully reviewed by management each year in consultation with our pension plan consultants and actuaries. Further information about our pension plan assumptions, the plan’s funded status, and other plan information is included in Note 11 to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Deferred Income Taxes. The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. If current available information raises doubt as to the realization of the deferred tax assets, a valuation allowance is established. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The Company exercises significant judgment in evaluating the amount and timing of recognition of the resulting tax liabilities and assets, including projections of future taxable income. These judgments are reviewed on a continual basis as regulatory and business factors change.

Comparison of Financial Condition at December 31, 2011 and 2010
The Company’s total assets at December 31, 2011 were $142.7 million compared to $147.0 million at December 31, 2010, a decrease of $4.3 million, or 2.9%. Loans receivable decreased $11.3 million, or 10.6%, to $95.2 million at December 31, 2011 from $106.5 million at December 31, 2010. Demand for one-to four-family residential mortgage loans decreased primarily due to the economic recession, high unemployment rate and declining real estate values. In addition, mortgage-backed securities decreased $379,000, or 1.7%, to $21.4 million at December 31, 2011 from $21.8 million as of December 31, 2010. Investment securities increased and totaled $4.3 million due to purchases during the quarters ended June 30 and September 30, 2011. Cash and cash equivalents increased $617,000, or 7.5%, to $8.8 million at December 31, 2011 from $8.2 million at December 31, 2010.
Total deposits decreased $2.2 million, or 1.9%, to $114.9 million at December 31, 2011 from $117.1 million at December 31, 2010. Borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York decreased $1.9 million, or 15.8%, to $10.1 million at December 31, 2011 from $12.0 million at December 31, 2010. The Company borrows from the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York to fund loan commitments, securities purchases and savings withdrawals.
Total stockholders’ equity decreased $1.2 million, or 7.6%, to $14.6 million at December 31, 2011 from $15.8 million at December 31, 2010. The decrease to stockholders’ equity reflects a net loss of $638,000 and an increase of $662,000 of accumulated other comprehensive loss. This was partially offset by amortization of $25,000 of unearned ESOP shares, amortization of $41,000 of restricted stock awards for the Company’s Stock-Based Incentive Program (the “Plan”) and amortization of $41,000 of stock option awards. No shares were repurchased during the year ended December 31, 2011.
On June 30, 2005, the Company approved a stock repurchase program and authorized the repurchase of up to 50,000 shares of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock. This repurchase program was completed on December 7, 2007 with 50,000 shares repurchased. On August 30, 2007, the Company approved a second stock repurchase program and authorized the repurchase of up to an additional 50,000 shares of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock. Stock repurchases will be made from time to time and may be effected through open market purchases, block trades and in privately negotiated transactions. Repurchased stock will be held as treasury stock and will be available for general corporate purposes. As of December 31, 2011, a total of 12,750 shares have been acquired at a weighted average price of $4.44 per share pursuant to the second stock repurchase program. No repurchases were made for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010.
Comparison of Operating Results for the Years Ended December 31, 2011 and 2010
General. Net income decreased by $1.1 million, to a loss of $638,000 for the year ended December 31, 2011 from income of $441,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010. Lower yield on interest earning assets, partially offset by lower cost of deposits and borrowings, caused the Company’s net interest margin to decrease by 16 basis points from 4.18% in 2010 to 4.02% in 2011.
Interest Income. Interest income decreased by $1.16 million or 12.6%, to $6.81 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 from $7.96 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The decrease in interest income resulted from decreases of income of $899,000 from loans receivable, $295,000 from mortgage-backed securities, and $2,000 from other interest earning assets, partially offset by an increase
Exhibit 13 -5 |
of $40,000 from investment securities. More generally, the decrease in interest income was attributable to a decrease of $10.8 million in the average balance of interest earning assets to $130.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 from $141.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 and a 42 basis point decrease in the average yield on interest earning assets.
Interest income on loans receivable decreased $899,000 or 13.8 %, to $5.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 from $6.5 million for the comparable period in 2010. The decrease resulted from a lower average balance of $100.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, from an average balance of $110.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 and a lower average yield of 5.58% for the year ended December 31, 2011 from an average yield of 5.88% for the year ended December 31, 2010.
Interest income from mortgage-backed securities decreased $295,000, or 21.4%, to $1.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 from $1.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. This decrease reflects a $2.3 million decrease in the average balance of mortgage-backed securities to $21.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 from $23.9 million for the same period in 2010 and an decrease in the average yield of 74 basis points to 5.03% for the year ended December 31, 2011 from 5.77% for the year ended December 31, 2010.
Interest income from investment securities increased $40,000, or 69.0%, to $98,000 for the year ended December 31, 2011 from $58,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase resulted from an increase of $2.4 million in the average balance in investment securities to $3.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 from an average balance of $1.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, partially offset by a decrease of 292 basis points to 2.86% in the average yield for the year ended December 31, 2011 from an average yield of 5.78% for the year ended December 31, 2010.
Interest income on other interest-earning assets, primarily interest-earning deposits and federal funds sold, decreased $2,000, or 33.3%, to $4,000 for the year ended December 31, 2011 from $6,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010. The decrease was attributable to the decrease of $747,000 in the average balance of interest earning deposits of $5.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 from $5.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2010.
Interest Expense. Total interest expense decreased $496,000, or 24.2%, to $1.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 from $2.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The decrease in interest expense resulted from a decrease of 30 basis points in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities to 1.29% for the year ended December 31, 2011 from 1.59% for the year ended December 31, 2010, and a $8.7 million decrease in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities to $120.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 from $129.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. In addition, the average balance of interest-bearing deposits decreased $2.9 million to $109.7 million with an average cost of 1.31% for the year ended December 31, 2011 from $112.6 million with an average cost of 1.54% for the year ended December 31, 2010. In addition, the decrease in interest expense resulted from a decrease of $5.8 million in the average balance of Federal Home Loan Bank of New York advances to $10.9 million, with an average cost of 1.07%, for the year ended December 31, 2011, compared to $16.7 million and 1.92% for the year ended December 31, 2010. The average balance of certificates of deposit decreased by $2.9 million to $75.1 million with an average cost of 1.74% in 2011, as compared with an average balance of $78.0 million with an average cost of 2.06% in 2010. The average balance for savings and club accounts decreased by $2,000 to $34.2 million with an average cost of 0.37% in 2011, as compared to $34.2 million with an average cost of 0.37% in 2010. The average balance of interest-bearing demand deposits decreased by $26,000 to $332,000 with an average cost of 0.33% in 2011 from $358,000 with an average cost of 0.34% in 2010.
Exhibit 13 -6 |
Net Interest Income. Net interest income decreased $660,000, or 11.2%, to $5.3 million for 2011 from $5.9 million for 2010. The Company’s interest rate spread decreased by 12 basis points to 3.92% in 2011 from 4.04% in 2010. Additionally, the Company’s interest margin decreased by 16 basis points to 4.02% in 2011 from 4.18% in 2010.
Provision for Loan Losses. The Company establishes provisions for loan losses, which are charged to operations, at a level necessary to absorb known and inherent losses that are both probable and reasonably estimable at the date of the financial statements. In evaluating the level of the allowance for loan losses, management considers historical loss experience, the types of loans and the amount of loans in the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, peer group information, and prevailing economic conditions. Prevailing national and local economic conditions are reflected in the continued high unemployment rate and depressed real estate values. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available or as future events change. Based on its evaluation of these factors, management made a provision of $1.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, as compared to a provision of $821,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase in provision for loan loss during the year was primarily due to increased specific loan loss reserves on construction loan participations, commercial real estate loans, one-to four-family residential loans and credit card loans, as well as an increase in general allowance for loan loss considered appropriate due to the increase of non-performing loans and to address inherent losses that are probable and estimable in the loan portfolio. Management used the same methodology and generally similar assumptions in assessing the allowance for both years. The allowance for loan losses was $2.2 million, or 2.30% of total loans outstanding at December 31, 2011, as compared with $1.6 million, or 1.51% of total loans outstanding at December 31, 2010. Non-performing loans to total assets was 574 basis points on December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010. The level of the allowance is based on estimates, and the ultimate losses may vary from the estimates.
Management evaluates the allowance for loan losses on a quarterly basis and makes provisions for loan losses as necessary in order to maintain the adequacy of the allowance. Although management believes that it uses the best information available to establish the allowance for loan losses, future additions to the allowance may be necessary based on estimates that are susceptible to change as a result of changes in economic conditions and other factors. In addition, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, as an integral part of its examination process, will periodically review the allowance for loan losses. The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency may require the Association to make adjustments to the allowance based on its judgments about information available to it at the time of its examination.
Non-Interest Income. Non-interest income increased by $29,000, or 11.4%, to $283,000 in 2011 from $254,000 in 2010. This increase was primarily due to increases in fees and service charges and miscellaneous income.
Exhibit 13 -7 |
Non-Interest Expense. Non-interest expense increased by $347,000, or 7.3% to $5.1 million in 2011 from $4.7 million in 2010. The increase was caused primarily by increases in net occupancy expense to $625,000 from $496,000, equipment expenses to $624,000 from $477,000, director’s compensation to $199,000 from $186,000, professional fees to $412,000 from $340,000 and insurance premiums to $185,000 from $139,000, partially offset by decreases in federal deposit insurance premiums to $153,000 from $206,000 Equipment expense increased $147,000 to $624,000 for the year ended December 31, 2011, from $477,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010 primarily due to data center deconversion costs. Net occupancy expense of premises increased $129,000 to $625,000 for the year ended December 31, 2011, from $496,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010 primarily due to the loss of rental income from an expired property lease that was not renewed due to the pending sale of the property, along with new leasing terms for an existing branch location. Professional fees increased $72,000 to $412,000 for the year ended December 31, 2011, from $340,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010 primarily due to increased legal and accounting expenses. Insurance premiums increased $46,000 to $185,000 for the year ended December 31, 2011, from $139,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010 primarily due to additional insurance required for the increased other real estate owned. Federal deposit insurance premiums decreased $53,000 to $153,000 for the year ended December 31, 2011, from $206,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010 primarily due to premium calculation changes.
Income Tax Expense. The provision for income taxes decreased $788,000 to a benefit of $632,000 in 2011 from an expense of $156,000 in 2010. The decrease in the income tax expense is primarily due to the decrease in income before taxes of $1.9 million to a loss of $1.3 million in 2011 from income of $597,000 in 2010.

Rate/Volume Analysis
The following table presents the dollar amount of changes in interest income and interest expense for major components of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. It distinguishes between the changes related to changes in outstanding balances and those due to the changes in interest rates. For each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, information is provided on changes attributable to (i) changes in volume (i.e., changes in volume multiplied by old rate) and (ii) changes in rate (i.e., changes in rate multiplied by old volume). For purposes of this table, changes attributable to both rate and volume, which cannot be segregated, have been allocated proportionately to the change due to volume and the change due to rate.

Management of Market Risk
General. The majority of the Company’s assets and liabilities are monetary in nature. Consequently, the most significant form of market risk is interest rate risk. The Company’s assets, consisting primarily of mortgage loans, have longer maturities than its liabilities, consisting primarily of deposits and borrowings. As a result, a principal part of the business strategy is to manage interest rate risk and reduce the exposure of net interest income to changes in market interest rates. Accordingly, the board of directors has established an Asset/Liability Management Committee which is responsible for evaluating the interest rate risk inherent in the assets and liabilities, for determining the level of risk that is appropriate given the business strategy, operating environment, capital, liquidity and performance objectives, and for managing this risk consistent with the guidelines approved by the board of directors. Senior management monitors the level of interest rate risk on a regular basis and the Asset/Liability Management Committee, which consists of senior management operating under a policy adopted by the board of directors, meets as needed to review the asset/liability policies and interest rate risk position.
Exhibit 13 -10 |
The Company has sought to manage its interest rate risk in order to minimize the exposure of earnings and capital to changes in interest rates. During the low interest rate environment that has existed in recent years, the Company has implemented the following strategies to manage its interest rate risk: (i) maintaining a high level of liquid interest-earning assets invested in cash and cash equivalents; (ii) offering a variety of adjustable rate loan products, including one year adjustable rate mortgage loans and construction loans, and short-term fixed rate home equity loans. Cash and cash equivalents, deposits and borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank may be used to fund loan commitments, investments and other general corporate purposes. By investing in short-term, liquid instruments, management believes the Company is better positioned to react to increases in market interest rates. However, investments in shorter-term securities and cash and cash equivalents generally bear lower yields than longer term investments. Thus, during the recent sustained period of low interest rates, the strategy of investment in liquid instruments has resulted in lower levels of interest income than would have been obtained by investing in longer-term loans and investments.
Net Portfolio Value. We use a net portfolio value analysis prepared by the OCC to review our level of interest rate risk. Such analysis measures interest rate risk by computing changes in net portfolio value of our cash flows from assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet items in the event of a range of assumed changes in market interest rates. Net portfolio value represents the market value of portfolio equity and is equal to the market value of assets minus the market value of liabilities, with adjustments made for off-balance sheet items. This analysis assesses the risk of loss in market risk-sensitive instruments in the event of a sudden and sustained 50 to 300 basis point increase or 50 and 100 basis point decrease in market interest rates with no effect given to any steps that we might take to counter the effect of that interest rate movement. Because of the low level of market interest rates, these analyses are not performed for decreases of more than 100 basis points.
The following table, which is based on information that we provide to the OCC, presents the change in the net portfolio value of the Association at December 31, 2011, which is the most recent date for which information is available, that would occur in the event of an immediate change in interest rates based on OCC assumptions, with no effect given to any steps that we might take to counteract that change.

The table above indicates that at December 31, 2011, in the event of a 100 basis point decrease in interest rates, the Company would experience a minimal decrease in net portfolio value. In the event of a 100 basis point increase in interest rates, the Company would experience a 4.00% decrease in net portfolio value.
Certain shortcomings are inherent in the methodology used in the above interest rate risk measurement. Modeling changes in net portfolio value require making certain assumptions that may or may not reflect the manner in which actual yields and costs respond to changes in market interest rates.
Exhibit 13 -11 |
In this regard, the net portfolio value table presented assumes that the composition of interest-sensitive assets and liabilities existing at the beginning of a period remains constant over the period being measured and assumes that a particular change in interest rates is reflected uniformly across the yield curve regardless of the duration or repricing of specific assets and liabilities. Accordingly, although the net portfolio value table provides an indication of interest rate risk exposure at a particular point in time, such measurements are not intended to and do not provide a precise forecast of the effect of changes in market interest rates on its net interest income and will differ from actual results.
Liquidity. The Company maintains liquid assets at levels considered adequate to meet its liquidity needs. The liquidity ratio averaged 6.94% for the year ended December 31, 2011. Liquidity levels are adjusted to fund deposit outflows, pay real estate taxes on mortgage loans, fund loan commitments and take advantage of investment opportunities. As appropriate, the Company also adjusts liquidity to meet asset and liability management objectives. At December 31, 2011, cash and cash equivalents totaled $8.8 million.
The Company’s primary sources of liquidity are deposits, borrowings, amortization and prepayment of loans and mortgage-backed securities, maturities of investment securities and other short-term investments, and earnings and funds provided from operations. While scheduled principal repayments on loans and mortgage-backed securities are a relatively predictable source of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by market interest rates, economic conditions, and rates offered by competition. Interest rates on deposits are set to maintain a desired level of total deposits. In addition, excess funds are invested in short-term interest-earning assets, which provide liquidity to meet lending requirements.
A significant portion of the Company’s liquidity consists of cash and cash equivalents, which are a product of management’s operating, investing and financing activities. At December 31, 2011, $8.8 million of assets were invested in cash and cash equivalents. The primary sources of cash are principal repayments on loans, proceeds from the calls and maturities of investment securities, principal repayments of mortgage-backed securities and increases in deposit accounts. As of December 31, 2011, there were no short-term investment securities.
Deposit flows are generally affected by the level of interest rates, the interest rates and products offered by local competitors, and other factors. Total deposits decreased $2.2 million to $114.9 million at December 31, 2011 from $117.1 million as of December 31, 2010.
Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of business management. If the Company requires funds beyond its ability to generate them internally, borrowing agreements exist with the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York which provides an additional source of funds. At December 31, 2011, the Company had $10.1 million in advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York, and had an available borrowing limit of $48.2 million.
At December 31, 2011, the Company had outstanding commitments to originate loans of $405,000. At December 31, 2011, certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in less than one year totaled $59.8 million. Based on prior experience, management believes that a significant portion of such deposits will remain, although there can be no assurance that this will be the case. In the event a significant portion of deposits are not retained, management will have to utilize other funding sources, such as Federal Home Loan Bank of New York advances in order to maintain the Company’s level of assets. Alternatively, management could reduce the level of liquid assets, such as cash and cash equivalents. In addition, the cost of such deposits may be significantly higher if market interest rates are higher at the time of renewal.

In the normal course of business, the Association enters into off-balance sheet arrangements consisting of commitments to fund loans. At December 31, 2011, these commitments totaled $405,000, which expire in three months or less. See Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.
Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices
The consolidated financial statements and related notes of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). GAAP generally requires the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without consideration for changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of the Company’s operations. Unlike industrial companies, the Company’s assets and liabilities are primarily monetary in nature. As a result, changes in market interest rates have a greater impact on performance than the effects of inflation.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Flatbush Federal Bancorp, Inc.
Brooklyn, New York
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition of Flatbush Federal Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Flatbush Federal Bancorp, Inc, and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of Operations and Basis of Financial Statement Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include accounts of Flatbush Bancorp Inc. (the “Company”), Flatbush Federal Savings and Loan Association (the “Association”) and the Association’s subsidiary, Flatbush REIT, Inc. (the “REIT”), a corporation principally engaged in investing in loans secured by real estate. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. At both December 31, 2011 and 2010, 54.23%, of the Company’s common stock was owned by Flatbush Federal MHC, a mutual holding company.
The Company’s primary business is the ownership and operation of the Association. The Association’s principal business consists of attracting retail deposits from the general public in the areas surrounding its various locations in Brooklyn, New York and investing those deposits, together with funds generated from operations and borrowings, primarily in one-to four-family residential mortgage loans, real estate construction loans and various securities. One-to four-family residential real estate in the Association’s market areas is characterized by a large number of attached and semi-detached homes, including a number of two- and three-family homes and cooperative apartments. Revenues are derived principally from interest on loans and securities, loan origination and servicing fees, and service charges and fees collected on deposit accounts. The primary sources of funds are deposits, principal and interest payments on loans and securities, and borrowings.
The Association’s lending area is concentrated in the neighborhoods surrounding the Association’s office locations in Brooklyn, New York. Most of the deposit customers are residents of the greater New York metropolitan area.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the dates of the consolidated statements of financial condition and revenues and expenses for the periods then ended. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the determination of the projected pension liabilities and the amount of deferred taxes which are more likely than not to be realized. Management believes that the allowance for loan losses and projected pension liability are adequate and that all deferred taxes are more likely than not to be realized. While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, future additions to the allowance for loan losses may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions in the market area. The determination of the projected pension liability and related pension expense is based upon assumptions regarding the discount rate and expected return on plan assets, as well as employee demographics, such as retirement patterns, employee turnover, mortality rates and estimated employee compensation increases. The assessment of the amount of deferred tax assets more likely than not to be realized is based upon projected future taxable income, which is subject to continual revisions for updated information.
In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Association’s allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require the Association to recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination.

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
The Company follows the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) guidance on subsequent events, which establishes general standards for accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued. The guidance sets forth the period after the balance sheet date during which management of the reporting entity, should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition in the financial statements, identifies the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements, and the disclosure that should be made about events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date. In preparing these consolidated financial statements, the Company evaluated the events that occurred between January 1, 2011 and the date these consolidated financial statements were issued.
On January 13, 2012, the Company consummated the sale of the Association’s main branch building and a portion of adjoining real estate to a third party for consideration of $10,136,000 and recognized a pre-tax gain of $9,072,000. This transaction is more fully described in Note 20 to the consolidated financial statements.
On March 13, 2012, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and between (i) Northfield Bank, Northfield Bancorp, Inc. (“Northfield Bancorp”), and Northfield Bancorp, MHC, and (ii) the Company, the Association and Flatbush Federal Bancorp, MHC. The Merger Agreement provides, among other things, that as a result of the merger of the Company into Northfield Bancorp (the “Mid-Tier Merger”), each outstanding share of the Company’s common stock will be converted into the right to receive 0.4748 shares of Northfield Bancorp common stock. The Merger Agreement contains a number of customary representations and warranties by the parties regarding certain aspects of their respective businesses, financial condition, structure and other facts pertinent to the Merger that are customary for a transaction of this kind. The obligation of the parties to complete the Merger is subject to various customary conditions. If the Merger is terminated under specified situations in the Merger Agreement (because the Company accepts a proposal to be acquired that is superior to the one contained in the Merger Agreement, enters into an agreement related to such a proposal and terminates the Merger Agreement, or fails to make, withdraws, modifies or qualifies its recommendation regarding the Merger Agreement), the Company may be required to pay a termination fee to Northfield Bancorp of approximately $700,000. The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, which was included in a Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 15, 2012.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash and amounts due from depository institutions, interest-bearing deposits in other banks, term deposits with original maturities of three months or less, and federal funds sold. Generally, federal funds are sold for one-day periods.
Investment and Mortgage-Backed Securities
Investments in debt securities that the Association has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held to maturity securities and reported at amortized cost. Debt and equity securities that are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term are classified as trading securities and reported at fair value, with unrealized holding gains and losses included in earnings. Debt and equity securities not classified as trading securities nor as held to maturity securities are classified as available for sale securities and reported at fair value, with unrealized holding gains or losses, net of deferred income taxes, reported in the accumulated other comprehensive loss component of stockholders’ equity. The Company has no securities classified as available for sale or trading securities.
Exhibit 13-20 |
Flatbush Federal Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Premiums and discounts on all securities are amortized/accreted using the interest method. Interest income on securities, which includes amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts, is recognized in the consolidated financial statements when earned. The adjusted cost basis of an identified security sold or called is used for determining security gains and losses recognized in the consolidated statements of income.
Individual securities are considered impaired when the fair value of such security is less than its amortized cost. The Company evaluates all securities with unrealized losses quarterly to determine if such impairments are temporary or “other-than-temporary” in accordance with applicable accounting guidance. The Company accounts for temporary impairments based upon security classification as either available for sale or held to maturity. Temporary impairments on available for sale securities are recognized on a tax-effected basis, through other comprehensive income (loss) with offsetting entries adjusting the carrying value of the securities and the balance of deferred income taxes. Temporary impairments of held to maturity securities are not recognized in the consolidated financial statements; however information concerning the amount and duration of impairments on held to maturity securities is disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
Other-than-temporary impairments on securities that the Company has decided to sell or will more likely than not be required to sell prior to the full recovery of their fair value to a level to, or exceeding amortized cost are recognized in earnings. Otherwise, the other-than-temporary impairment is bifurcated into credit related and noncredit-related components. The credit related impairment generally represents the amount by which the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected on a debt security falls below its amortized cost. The noncredit-related component represents the remaining portion of the impairment not otherwise designated as credit-related. Credit related other-than-temporary impairments are recognized in earnings while noncredit-related other-than-temporary impairments are recognized, net of deferred income taxes, in other comprehensive income (loss).
Federal Home Loan Bank of New York Stock
Federal Home Loan Bank of New York (“FHLB”) stock, which represents a required investment in the common stock of a correspondent bank, is carried at cost.
Management evaluates the FHLB stock for impairment in accordance with guidance on accounting by certain entities that lend to or finance the activities of others. Management’s determination of whether this investment is impaired is based on their assessment of the ultimate recoverability of their cost rather than by recognizing temporary declines in value. The determination of whether a decline affects the ultimate recoverability of their cost is influenced by criteria such as (1) the significance of the decline in net assets of the FHLB as compared to the capital stock amount for the FHLB and the length of time this situation has persisted, (2) commitments by the FHLB to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance of the FHLB, and (3) the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on institutions and, accordingly, on the customer base of the FHLB.
Management believes no impairment charge is necessary related to the FHLB stock as of December 31, 2011.

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Loans Receivable
Loans receivable are stated at unpaid principal balances, less the allowance for loan losses and net deferred loan origination fees and costs. The Association defers loan origination fees and certain direct loan origination costs and accretes/amortizes such amounts as an adjustment of yield over the contractual lives of the related loans.
Interest is recognized by use of the accrual method. An allowance for uncollectible interest on loans is maintained based on management’s evaluation of collectibility. The allowance is established by a charge to interest income. Income is subsequently recognized only to the extent that cash payments are received until, in management’s judgment, the borrower’s ability to make periodic interest and principal payments is probable, in which case the loan is returned to an accrual status.
Allowance for Loan Losses
An allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level necessary to absorb loan losses which are both probable and reasonably estimable. Management, in determining the allowance for loan losses, considers the losses inherent in its loan portfolio and changes in the nature and volume of its loan activities, along with general economic and real estate market conditions. The Association utilizes a two tier approach: (1) identification of impaired loans and establishment of specific loss allowances on such loans; and (2) establishment of general valuation allowances on the remainder of its loan portfolio. The Association maintains a loan review system which allows for a periodic review of its loan portfolio and the early identification of potential impaired loans. Such system takes into consideration, among other things, delinquency status, size of loans, types of collateral and financial condition of the borrowers. Specific loan loss allowances are established for identified loans based on a review of such information. A loan evaluated for impairment is deemed to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Association will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. All loans identified as impaired are evaluated independently. The Association does not aggregate such loans for evaluation purposes. Loan impairment is measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or, as a practical expedient, at the loan’s observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. General loan loss allowances are based upon a combination of factors including, but not limited to, actual loan loss experience, composition of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions and management’s judgment.
The allowance is increased through provisions charged against current earnings and recoveries of previously charged off loans. Loans which are determined to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance. Although management believes that specific and general loan loss allowances are established to absorb losses which are both probable and reasonably estimable, actual losses are dependent upon future events and, as such, further additions to the level of specific and general loan loss allowances may be necessary.
Payments received on impaired loans are applied to principal.
Concentration of Risk
The Association’s lending activities are concentrated in loans secured by real estate located in the State of New York.

Advertising
Advertising expense, which totaled $13,000 and $16,000, during the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, is recorded as incurred and included in other non-interest expenses.
Premises and Equipment
Premises and equipment are comprised of land, at cost, and building, building improvements, leasehold improvements and furniture, fixtures and equipment, at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization computed on the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:
Years | ||
Building and improvements | 5 – 50 | |
Leasehold improvements | Shorter of term of lease or useful life | |
Furniture, fixtures and equipment | 5 – 10 |
Significant renewals and betterments are charged to the premises and equipment account. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense in the year incurred. Rental income is netted against occupancy expense in the consolidated statements of income.
Bank Owned Life Insurance (BOLI)
The Company has an investment in BOLI to help offset the rising cost of employee benefits. BOLI is accounted for using the cash surrender value method and is recorded at its realizable value. The income from BOLI is recorded as other non-interest income.
Income Taxes
The Company and the Association file consolidated federal, state and city income tax returns. Income taxes are allocated to the Company and the Association based upon the contribution of their respective income or loss to the consolidated return. The REIT files a separate federal, state and city income tax return and pays its own taxes.
Federal, state and city income taxes have been provided on the basis of reported income. The amounts reflected on the tax return differ from these provisions due principally to temporary differences in the reporting of certain items for financial reporting and income tax reporting purposes. The tax effect of these temporary differences is accounted as deferred taxes applicable to future periods. Deferred income tax expense or benefit is determined by recognizing deferred tax assets and liabilities for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in earnings in the period that includes the enactment date. The realization of deferred tax assets is assessed and a valuation allowance provided, when necessary, for that portion of the asset which is not likely to be realized.
Exhibit 13-23 |
Flatbush Federal Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting guidance which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, and also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. As a result of the Company’s evaluation, no significant income tax uncertainties have been identified. Therefore, the Company recognized no adjustment for unrecognized income tax benefits for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010. Our policy is to recognize interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The amount of interest and penalties for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 was immaterial. The tax years subject to examination by the taxing authorities are the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008.
Benefit Plans
The Company has a non-contributory defined benefit pension plan covering all eligible employees. The benefits are based on years of service and employees’ compensation. The benefit plan is funded in conformance with funding requirements of applicable government regulations. The Company also has an unfunded Postretirement Benefit Plan, a Supplemental Retirement Plan for executives and a Directors Retirement plan. Prior service costs for these plans generally are amortized over the estimated remaining service periods of participants.
The Company uses the corridor approach in the valuation of the defined benefit plan and other plans. The corridor approach defers all actuarial gains and losses resulting from variances between actual results and economic estimates or actuarial assumptions. For the defined benefit pension plan, these unrecognized gains and losses are amortized when net gains and losses exceed 10% of the greater of the market-related value of plan assets or the projected benefit obligation at the beginning of the year.
Stock-Based Compensation Plans
The Company has two stock-related compensation plans, including stock options and restricted stock plans, which are described in Note 11 to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company expenses the fair value of all share-based compensation granted over its requisite service periods.
Options vest over an eight-year service period. Upon exercise of vested options, management expects to draw on treasury stock as the source of shares. The fair values relating to all options granted were estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Expected volatilities are based on historical volatility of our stock and other factors, such as implied market volatility. The Company used historical exercise dates based on the age at grant of the option holder to estimate the options’ expected term, which represent the period of time that the options granted are expected to be outstanding. The Company anticipated the future option holding periods to be similar to the historical option holding periods. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The expected dividend yield was based on the Company’s history and expectations of dividend payouts. The Company recognizes compensation expense for the fair values of these awards, which have graded vesting, on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the awards. There were no options granted during the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010.

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Interest-Rate Risk
The Association is principally engaged in the business of attracting deposits from the general public and using these deposits, together with other funds, to make loans secured by real estate and, to a lesser extent, to purchase investment and mortgage-backed securities. The potential for interest-rate risk exists as a result of the generally shorter duration of interest-sensitive liabilities compared to the generally longer duration of interest-sensitive assets. In a rising rate environment, liabilities will reprice faster than assets, thereby reducing net interest income. For this reason, management regularly monitors the maturity structure of the Association’s interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities in order to measure its level of interest-rate risk and to plan for future volatility.
Net Income per Common Share
Basic net income per common share was computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding, adjusted for unearned shares of the ESOP. Stock options and restricted stock awards granted are considered common stock equivalents and therefore considered in diluted net income per common share calculations, if dilutive, using the treasury stock method. During the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, all outstanding stock options and unvested restricted stock were anti-dilutive.
Transfer of Financial Assets
Transfer of financial assets, including loan participation sales, are accounted for as sales, when control over the assets has been surrendered. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when (1) the assets have been isolated from the Association; (2) the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets; and (3) the Association does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity.
Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments
In the ordinary course of business, the Association has entered into off-balance sheet financial instruments consisting of commitments to extend credit. Such financial instruments are recorded in the consolidated statements of financial condition when they are funded.
Comprehensive Income
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income. Although certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrecognized net loss or gain, unrecognized past service cost or unrecognized past transition obligation on defined benefit plans and post retirement plans, are reported as a separate component of the equity section of the consolidated statements of financial condition, such items, along with net income are components of comprehensive income.
Reclassification
Certain amounts as of and for the year ended December 31, 2010 have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on net income for 2010.

Management does not believe that any of the individual unrealized losses at December 31, 2011 and 2010, represent other-than-temporary impairment. The unrealized losses reported on securities at December 31, 2011 relate to four corporate debt securities and four Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation mortgage-backed securities. These unrealized losses are due to changes in interest rates. The Company does not intend to sell these securities and it is not more-likely-than-not that the Company would be required to sell these securities prior to full recovery of fair value to a level which equals or exceeds amortized cost.

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Impairment is measured on a loan by loan basis for, commercial real estate loans and commercial construction loans by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.
Exhibit 13-33 |
Flatbush Federal Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries

An allowance for loan losses is established for an impaired loan if its carrying value exceeds its estimated fair value. The estimated fair values of substantially all of the Company’s impaired loans are measured based on the estimated fair value of the loan’s collateral.
For loans secured by real estate, estimated fair values are determined primarily through third-party appraisals. When a real estate secured loan becomes impaired, a decision is made regarding whether an updated certified appraisal of the real estate is necessary. This decision is based on various considerations, including the age of the most recent appraisal, the loan-to-value ratio based on the original appraisal and the condition of the property. Appraised values are discounted to arrive at the estimated selling price of the collateral, which is considered to be the estimated fair value. The discounts also include estimated costs to sell the property.
Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, the Company does not separately identify individual smaller balance residential mortgage loans, home equity loans and other consumer loans for impairment disclosures, unless such loans are the subject of a troubled debt restructuring agreement.
The following table presents impaired loans by class, segregated by those for which a specific allowance was required and those for which a specific allowance was not necessary as of December 31, 2011 and 2010.

During the years ended December 31, 2010, the average investment in impaired loans was $5,523,000 No interest income was collected in 2010 on these loans during the time of impairment.
At December 31, 2011 and 2010, 90.00%, and 100% respectively, of impaired loan balances were measured for impairment based on the fair value of the loan’s collateral.
The allowance calculation methodology includes further segregation of loan classes into risk rating categories. The borrower’s overall financial condition, repayment sources, guarantors and value of collateral, if appropriate, are evaluated annually for commercial loans or when credit deficiencies arise, such as delinquent loan payments, for commercial and consumer loans. Credit quality risk ratings include regulatory classifications of substandard, doubtful, loss and special mention. An asset is
Exhibit 13-35 |
Flatbush Federal Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries
3 - Loans Receivable (Continued)
considered substandard if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Substandard assets include those characterized by the distinct possibility that the insured institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Assets classified as doubtful have all of the weaknesses inherent in those classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable. 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. Assets which do not currently expose the insured institution to sufficient risk to warrant classification in one of the aforementioned categories but possess weaknesses are required to be designated special mention. If uncorrected, the potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects. Loans which are not classified as noted above are rated “pass”.
In addition, Federal regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company’s allowance for loan losses and may require the Company to recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination, which may not be currently available to management. Based on management’s comprehensive analysis of the loan portfolio, management believes the current level of the allowance for loan losses is adequate.
The following table presents the classes of the loan portfolio summarized by the pass category and the criticized categories of special mention, substandard and doubtful within the internal risk rating system as of December 31, 2011 and 2010.

The Association may grant a concession or modification for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower’s financial condition that it would not otherwise consider resulting in a modified loan which is then identified as a troubled debt restructuring (TDR). The Association may modify loans through rate reductions, extensions of maturity, interest only payments, or payment modifications to better match the timing of cash flows due under the modified terms with the cash flows from the borrowers’ operations. Loan modifications are intended to minimize the economic loss and to avoid foreclosure or repossession of the collateral. TDRs are considered impaired loans for purposes of calculation the Company’s allowance for loan losses.
The Association identifies loans for potential restructure primarily through direct communication with the borrower and evaluation of the borrower’s financial statements, revenue projections, tax returns, and credit reports. Even if the borrower is not presently in default, management will consider the likelihood that cash flow shortages, adverse economic conditions, and negative trends may result in a payment default in the near future.

There were no troubled debt restructuring which subsequently defaulted during 2011.
Loans whose terms are modified are classified as troubled debt restructurings if the Association grants such borrowers concessions and it is deemed that those borrowers are experiencing financial difficulty. Concessions granted under a troubled debt restructuring generally involve a temporary reduction in interest rate or an extension of a loan’s stated maturity date. Non-accrual troubled debt restructurings are restored to accrual status if principal and interest payments, under the modified terms, are current for six consecutive months after modification. Loans classified as troubled debt restructurings are designated as impaired.
The Association has granted loans to its directors and officers and to their associates. Related party loans are made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with unrelated persons and do not involve more than the normal risk of collectability. The aggregate dollar amount of these loans was $775,000 and $804,000 at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. During the year December 31, 2011, no new related party loans were made.
Note 4 - Loan Servicing
The Association originated loans held for sale and sold them, with servicing retained, to the FHLB under the Mortgage Partnership Finance Program. The conditions for sale include a credit enhancement liability as determined at the time of sale. The FHLB pays the Association a fee for credit enhancement as the loans are paid down. At December 31, 2011 and 2010, the potential contingent liability for credit enhancement amounted to $84,000, which is not recorded in the consolidated financial statements. The total loans serviced under this program amounted to approximately $359,000 and $398,000 at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, which amounts are also not included in the consolidated financial statements. In accordance with guidelines for regulatory capital computations, the contingent liability has been subtracted to compute regulatory capital (see Note 9). No loans were sold to the FHLB during the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010.

Custodial escrow balances maintained in connection with loans serviced under this program amounted to approximately $530 and $1,064 at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and are included in the consolidated statements of financial condition as demand deposits.

Note 9 - Regulatory Capital
The Association is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the Federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Association. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Association must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of Association’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Association’s capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk-weightings, and other factors.
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Association to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of Total and Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier 1 capital to adjusted total assets (as defined). The following tables present a reconciliation of capital per GAAP and regulatory capital and information as to the Association’s capital levels at the dates presented:

The Association maintains a defined benefit pension plan (the “Plan”) covering all employees who have met the Plan’s eligibility requirements. The Association’s policy is to fund the Plan annually with the minimum contribution deductible for Federal income tax purposes.
On February 26, 2009, the Company froze its defined benefit pension plan effective March 31, 2009. The freezing of the Plan is consistent with ongoing cost reduction strategies and shift focus on future savings of retirement benefit expense. The changes included a discontinuation of accrual of future service cost in the defined benefit pension plan and fully preserving retirement benefits that employees will have earned as of March 31, 2009.
The following table sets forth the Plan’s funded status:

Pension Plan (Continued)
The long-term investment objective is to allocate the Plan’s assets to a range of approximately 65% equities, and 35% bond funds to achieve an optimal risk/reward profile. Based on an analysis of the current market environment, the Company projects a 4% return from fixed income and a 7% return from equities, for an overall expected return of approximately 6%. The long-term rate of return on assets assumption is set based on historical returns earned by equities and fixed income securities, adjusted to reflect expectations of future returns as applied to the Plan’s actual target allocation of asset classes. Equities and fixed income securities are assumed to earn real rates of return in the ranges of 5 - 9% and 2 - 6%, respectively. Additionally, the long-term inflation rate is projected to be 3%. When these overall return expectations are applied to a typical plan’s target allocation, the result is an expected return of 7% to 11%.
The fair values of the Company’s pension plan assets at December 31, 2011 and 2010, by asset category (see Note 16 for the definitions of Levels), are as follows:

2017-2021 | 97,933 |
At the year ended December 31, 2011, a medical cost trend rate of 8.0%, was estimated. For the year ended December 31, 2010, a medical cost trend of 9.00% was estimated. Increasing the assumed medical cost trend by one percent in each year would increase the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, by $13,000 and $14,000, respectively. The aggregate of the service and interest components of net periodic postretirement benefit cost for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 were not affected.
At December 31, 2011, unrecognized prior service cost and unrecognized net loss amounted to $23,692 and $65,479, respectively, and were included in accumulated other comprehensive loss. At December 31, 2010, unrecognized prior service cost and unrecognized net loss amounted to $27,516 and $70,424, respectively, and were included in accumulated other comprehensive loss. For the year ended December 31, 2012, $5,304 of net loss and $3,824 of prior service cost are expected to be amortized in post-retirement benefit expense.

ESOP
The Company has established an ESOP for all eligible employees. The ESOP used $696,160 of proceeds from a term loan from the Company to purchase 105,294 shares (adjusted for the February, 2005 and March, 2006 stock dividends) of Company common stock in the initial offering. The term loan from the Company to the ESOP is payable over 20 years. Interest on the term loan is payable monthly, commencing on November 1, 2003, at the rate of 5.5% per annum. The Association intends to make discretionary contributions to the ESOP which will be equal to principal and interest payments required from the ESOP on the term loan. Shares purchased with the loan proceeds are initially pledged as collateral for the term loan and are held in a suspense account for future allocation among participants. Contributions to the ESOP and shares released from the suspense account will be allocated among the participants on the basis of compensation, as described by the ESOP, in the year of allocation. During the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Association made cash contributions of $57,000 to the ESOP, of which $29,000 and $28,000, respectively, was applied to loan principal. At December 31, 2011 and 2010, the loan had an outstanding balance of $495,000 and $524,000, respectively.
The ESOP shares pledged as collateral are reported as unearned ESOP shares in the consolidated statements of financial condition. As shares are committed to be released from collateral, the Company records compensation expense equal to the current market price of the shares, and the shares become outstanding for net income per common share computations. Dividends on allocated ESOP shares are recorded as a reduction of stockholders’ equity. Contributions equivalent to dividends on unallocated ESOP shares are recorded as a reduction of debt. ESOP compensation expense was $25,000 and $25,000 for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, which is included in salary and employee benefits.
The ESOP shares are summarized as follows:

Restricted Stock Awards
Restricted Stock Awards under the Stock-Based Incentive Plan are granted in the form of Company common stock, and vest over a period of eight years (12.5% annually from the date of grant). The Restricted Stock Awards become fully vested upon the death or disability of the holder. At December 31, 2011 and 2010, there were no shares remaining available for future restricted stock awards.
The following is a summary of the status of the Company’s non-vested restricted shares for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010:
Restricted Shares | Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value | |||||||

Non-vested as of December 31, 2011 | 3,798 | $ | 9.71 |
No shares were granted or forfeited during the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010. During both the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company recorded $41,000 of stock-based compensation expense and the income tax benefit attributed to this expense was $17,000 during each year. Expected future compensation expense relating to the 3,798 non-vested restricted share awards as of December 31, 2011 is $41,000 over a weighted average period of 1 year.
Stock Options
Stock Options granted under the Stock-Based Incentive Plan may be either options that qualify as incentive stock options as defined in Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or non-statutory options. Options granted will vest and will be exercisable on a cumulative basis in equal installments at the rate of 12.5% per year commencing one year after the grant date. All options granted will be exercisable in the event the optionee terminates his employment due to death or disability. The options expire ten years from the date of grant. At December 31, 2011 and 2010, there were 57,357 shares available for future option grants.

At December 31, 2011 and 2010, the intrinsic value of stock options outstanding and stock options exercisable amounted to $0 and the weighted average remaining contractual term was 3 and 4 years, respectively. At and for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, there was no dilutive effect of stock options.
Note 12 - Income Taxes
The Association qualifies as a savings and loan association under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code and, therefore, was permitted, prior to January 1, 1996, to deduct from Federal taxable income an allowance for bad debts based on eight percent of taxable income before such deduction, less certain adjustments, subject to certain limitations. Beginning January 1, 1996, the Association, for Federal income tax purposes, must calculate its tax bad debt deduction using either the experience or the specific charge off method. Retained earnings at December 31, 2011 and 2010, include approximately $3,368,000 of such bad debt deductions for which income taxes have not been provided. During 2010, amendments of the New York State and New York City’s tax law and ordinance conformed the bad debt deduction to the deduction allowed under the Federal income tax law for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2010.

Note 14 - Commitments
The Association is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated statements of financial condition. The contract or notional amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Association has in particular classes of financial instruments.
The Association’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual notional amount of those instruments. The Association uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.
Exhibit 13-60 |
Flatbush Federal Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Note 14 - Commitments (Continued)
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. The total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Association evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Association upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but primarily includes residential and income-producing real estate.
The Association has outstanding various commitments to originate or purchase loans as follows:
December 31, |
||||||||
2011 |
2010 | |||||||
Mortgage loans | $ | 405,000 | $ | 2,244,000 | ||||
Secured credit cards | 136,223 | 131,000 | ||||||
$ | 541,223 | $ | 2,375,000 |
At December 31, 2011, the outstanding mortgage loan commitments included $405,000 for fixed interest rates at 4.75%.
At December 31, 2010, the outstanding mortgage loan commitments included $1,644,000 for fixed interest rates ranging from 4.25% to 5.75% and $600,000 for adjustable interest rates at 5.50%.
Rentals, including related expenses, under long-term operating leases for certain branch offices amounted to approximately $201,000 and $116,000 for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. At December 31, 2011, the minimum rental commitments under all noncancellable leases with initial or remaining terms of more than one year are as follows:
Year Ended December 31, | Amount | |||
2012 | $ | 284,699 | ||
2013 | 290,396 | |||
2014 | 296,201 | |||
2015 | 302,125 | |||
2016 | 308,930 | |||
Thereafter | 1,487,513 |
The Company and the Association also have, in the normal course of business, commitments for services and supplies. Management does not anticipate losses on any of these transactions.
Exhibit 13-61 |
Flatbush Federal Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Note 15 - Contingencies
The Company and the Association are parties to litigation which arises primarily in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of such litigation should not have a material effect on the consolidated financial position or operations of the Company.
Note 16 - Fair Value Measurements and Fair Values of Financial Instruments
Management uses its best judgment in estimating the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments; however, there are inherent weaknesses in any estimation technique. Therefore, for substantially all financial instruments, the fair value estimates herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Association could have realized in a sales transaction on the dates indicated. The estimated fair value amounts have been measured as of their respective year-ends and have not been re-evaluated or updated for purposes of these financial statements subsequent to those respective dates. As such, the estimated fair values of these financial instruments subsequent to the respective reporting dates may be different than the amount reported at each year-end.
FASB’s guidance on fair value measurement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This guidance does not require any new fair value measurements. The definition of fair value retains the exchange price notion in earlier definitions of fair value. The guidance clarifies that the exchange price is the price in an orderly transaction between market participants to sell the asset or transfer the liability in the market in which the reporting entity would transact for the asset or liability. The definition focuses on the price that would be received to sell the asset or paid to transfer the liability (an exit price), not the price that would be paid to acquire the asset or received to assume the liability (an entry price). The guidance emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement.
The guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation methods used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3: Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported with little or no market activity).
An asset’s or liability’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The Company had no assets which are required to be measured on a recurring basis at December 31, 2011 and 2010.
Exhibit 13-62 |
Flatbush Federal Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Note 16 - Fair Value Measurements and Fair Values of Financial Instruments (Continued)
For assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis, the fair value measurements by level within the fair value hierarchy used are as follows:
Description | Total |
(Level 1) Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets |
(Level 2) Significant Other Observable Inputs |
(Level 3) Significant Unobservable Inputs |

The Company had no liabilities which are required to be measured on a recurring or non-recurring basis at December 31, 2011 and 2010.
The following information should not be interpreted as an estimate of the fair value of the entire Company since a fair value calculation is only provided for a limited portion of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Due to a wide range of valuation techniques and the degree of subjectivity used in making the estimates, comparisons between the Company’s disclosures and those of other companies may not be meaningful. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values of the Company’s financial instruments at December 31, 2011 and 2010:
Cash and Cash Equivalents (Carried at Cost)
The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash and short-term instruments approximate those assets’ fair values.
Securities
The fair value of securities held to maturity (carried at amortized cost) are determined by obtaining quoted market prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges (Level 1), or matrix pricing (Level 2), which is a mathematical technique used widely in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted market prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted prices.
Loan Receivable (Carried at Cost)
The fair value of loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using market rates at the balance sheet date that reflect the credit and interest rate-risk inherent in the loans. Projected future cash flows are calculated based upon contractual maturity or call dates, projected repayments and prepayments of principal. Generally, for variable rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values.
Exhibit 13-63 |
Flatbush Federal Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Note 16 - Fair Value Measurements and Fair Values of Financial Instruments (Continued)
Impaired Loans
Impaired loans are those for which the Company has measured and recorded impairment generally based on the fair value of the loan’s collateral. Fair value is generally determined based upon independent third-party appraisals of the properties, or discounted cash flows based upon the expected proceeds. These assets are included as Level 3 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements.
Accrued Interest Receivable
The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for accrued interest receivable approximate those assets’ fair values.
Federal Home Loan Bank of New York (FHLB) Stock (Carried at Cost)
The carrying amount of restricted investment in FHLB stock approximates fair value, and considers the limited marketability of such securities.
Deposit Liabilities (Carried at Cost)
The fair value disclosed for demand deposits (e.g., interest and noninterest checking, passbook savings and money market accounts) are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts). Fair values for fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered in the market on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits.
Short-Term Borrowings (Carried at Cost)
The carrying amounts of short-term borrowings approximate their fair values.
Long-Term Borrowings (Carried at Cost)
Fair values of FHLB advances are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on quoted prices for new FHLB advances with similar credit risk characteristics, terms and remaining maturity. These prices obtained from this active market represent a market value that is deemed to represent the transfer price if the liability were assumed by a third party.
Accrued Interest Payable
The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for accrued interest payable approximate the assets’ fair values.
Exhibit 13-64 |
Flatbush Federal Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Note 16 - Fair Value Measurements and Fair Values of Financial Instruments (Continued)
Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments (Disclosed at Cost)
Fair value for the Association’s off-balance sheet financial instruments (lending commitments and letters of credit) are based on fees currently charged in the market to enter into similar agreements, taking into account, the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing.
As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the fair value of commitments to extend credit were not considered to be material.

Note 19 - Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The following is a summary of recently issued authoritative pronouncements that could have an impact on the accounting, reporting, and/or disclosure of the consolidated financial information of the Company.
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-05, “Comprehensive Income - Presentation of Comprehensive Income”. The provisions of this ASU amend FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 220, “Comprehensive Income,” to facilitate the continued alignment of U.S. GAAP with International Accounting Standards. The ASU prohibits the presentation of the components of comprehensive income in the statement of stockholder’s equity. Reporting entities are allowed to present either: a statement of comprehensive income, which reports both net income and other comprehensive income; or separate, but consecutive, statements of net income and other comprehensive income. Under previous GAAP, all 3 presentations were acceptable. Regardless of the presentation selected, the Reporting Entity is required to present all reclassifications between other comprehensive and net income on the face of the new statement or statements.
Exhibit 13-69 |
Flatbush Federal Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Note 19 - Recent Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)
The FASB subsequently issued ASU 2011-12, which defers the presentation of all reclassification adjustments while the FASB considers the operational concerns raised with regard to this presentation, as well as whether or not this presentation meets the needs of financial statement users. Until the FASB has reached a decision, reporting entities should continue to present reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income consistent with pre-existing requirements.
The provision to prepare either a combined statement of comprehensive income or separate, but consecutive, statements of net income and other comprehensive income remains in effect for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2011 for public companies, and for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2012 for nonpublic companies. As the two remaining options for presentation existed prior to the issuance of this ASU, early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of these pronouncements to have a material impact on consolidated operations or financial position.
The FASB issued ASU 2011-04 to amend FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements, to bring U.S. GAAP for fair value measurements in line with International Accounting Standards. The ASU clarifies existing guidance for items such as: the application of the highest and best use concept to non-financial assets and liabilities; the application of fair value measurement to financial instruments classified in a reporting entity’s stockholder’s equity; and disclosure requirements regarding quantitative information about unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements of level 3 assets. The ASU also creates an exception to Topic 820 for entities which carry financial instruments within a portfolio or group, under which the entity is now permitted to base the price used for fair valuation upon a price that would be received to sell the net asset position or transfer a net liability position in an orderly transaction. The ASU also allows for the application of premiums and discounts in a fair value measurement if the financial instrument is categorized in level 2 or 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Lastly, the ASU contains new disclosure requirements regarding fair value amounts categorized as level 3 in the fair value hierarchy such as: disclosure of the valuation process used; effects of and relationships between unobservable inputs; usage of nonfinancial assets for purposes other than their highest and best use when that is the basis of the disclosed fair value; and categorization by level of items disclosed at fair value, but not measured at fair value for financial statement purposes. For public entities, this ASU is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. For nonpublic entities, the ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company does not expect the adoption of these pronouncements to have a material impact on consolidated operations or financial position.
Note 20 – Property Sale
During 2010, the Company entered into an agreement (the “Agreement”) to sell its current main branch building and a portion of Flatbush Federal’s adjoining real estate to a third party (the “Purchaser”) (the “Transfer”). Under the Agreement, Purchaser would acquire Flatbush Federal’s current main branch building located at 2146 Nostrand Avenue, Brooklyn, New York (“Property A”). In addition thereto, the Purchaser would take title to 2158 Nostrand Avenue, Brooklyn, New York (“Property B”), and an approximately 12,305 square foot parcel (“Property C”) of a larger adjoining parking lot (“Lot 124”) abutting parts of Nostrand Avenue and Hillel Place, Brooklyn, New York (Property A, Property B, and Property C are collectively, the “Properties”).

Note 20 – Property Sale (Continued)
On March 24, 2011, the Company and the Purchaser entered into an amendment to the Agreement. The significant terms of the Agreement, as amended, are as follows:
1. | The Purchaser was required to subdivide Lot 124 (of which Property C forms a part of) into two separate tax lots or parcels (the “Subdivision”). Lot 124 consists of (i) Parcel C and (ii) a 3,100 square foot parcel which abuts Hillel Place (the “Retained Property”). Flatbush Federal will retain title to the Retained Parcel, which will become the site of a new branch building (“Branch Building”). | |
2. | The Transfer must close (the “Closing”) five (5) days after the date the Subdivision has been approved and new tax lot numbers are assigned to Property C and the Retained Property. | |
3. | The Purchaser is obligated to complete construction of and deliver to the Company a building containing a 3,000 square foot ground floor bank branch, a cellar, and three (3) additional floors of office space. In consideration of constructing the three (3) additional floors of office space, the Purchaser shall receive a credit at the Closing. | |
4. | One of the principals of the Purchaser will personally guarantee the Purchaser’s obligation to deliver the bank branch and office building to Flatbush Federal. |
The Company plans to use the additional three (3) floors of office space (consisting of approximately 7,125 of additional square feet) for its executive and administrative offices.
The transfer closed on January 13, 2012; at that date the Company received $6,340,000 in cash and a building valued at $3,176,000 and recorded a pre-tax gain of $9,073,000.
Upon the Closing, Flatbush Federal began leasing back Property A on an interim basis for its continued use as a temporary bank branch (the “Branch Lease”) for one ($1.00) dollar per year. Flatbush Federal must relocate to the new Branch Building no later than 45 days after the Purchaser completes the construction of the Branch Building and if applicable, the Purchaser’s contractor has completed construction of the interior build-out and delivers to Flatbush Federal a temporary certificate of occupancy for the Branch Building, Bank branch expansion and interior build-out. At that time, the Branch Lease will terminate, and Flatbush Federal will open the Branch Building for business as its new bank branch.

Securities Held to Maturity | Note 2 - Securities Held to Maturity
The age of unrealized losses and fair value of related mortgage-backed securities held to maturity are as follows:
Management does not believe that any of the individual unrealized losses at December 31, 2011 and 2010, represent other-than-temporary impairment. The unrealized losses reported on securities at December 31, 2011 relate to four corporate debt securities and four Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation mortgage-backed securities. These unrealized losses are due to changes in interest rates. The Company does not intend to sell these securities and it is not more-likely-than-not that the Company would be required to sell these securities prior to full recovery of fair value to a level which equals or exceeds amortized cost.
The amortized cost and estimated fair value of securities at December 31, 2011, by contractual maturity, are shown below. Actual maturities will differ from contractual maturities because borrowers generally have the right to prepay obligations.
All mortgage-backed securities are U.S. Government Agencies backed and collateralized by residential mortgages.
There were no sales of securities held to maturity during the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010.
At December 31, 2011 and 2010, mortgage-backed securities with amortized cost of approximately $8,719,000 and $10,702,000, respectively, and fair value of $9,087,000, and $11,265,000, respectively, were pledged to Federal Home Loan Bank of New York to secure borrowings. |
