NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited financial statements of the Company were prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X and do not include information or footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements have been included. The results of operations for the three month period ended March 31, 2012, are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the entire fiscal year.

NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Louisiana Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) was organized as a Louisiana corporation on March 16, 2007, for the purpose of becoming the holding company of Bank of New Orleans (the “Bank”).  The Company holds all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the Bank.  The Bank operates in the banking/savings and loan industry and, as such, attracts deposits from the general public and uses such deposits primarily to originate loans secured by first mortgage loans on owner-occupied single-family residences and other properties, as well as those for consumer needs.

The Bank is subject to competition from other financial institutions, and is also subject to the regulations of certain Federal agencies and undergoes periodic examinations by those regulatory authorities.

SIGNIFICANT GROUP CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK

Most of the Company’s activities are with customers located within the greater New Orleans area in Louisiana. Note 2 summarizes the types of securities in which the Company invests.  Note 3 summarizes the types of lending in which the Company engages. The Company does not have any significant concentrations in any one industry or to any one customer.

INVESTMENT SECURITIES

Securities are being accounted for in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 320-10, Investments – Debt and Equity Securities.  FASB ASC 320-10 requires the classification of securities into one of three categories: trading, available-for-sale, or held-to-maturity. Management determines the appropriate classification of debt securities at the time of purchase and re-evaluates these classifications periodically.

Available-for-sale securities are stated at market value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of income taxes, reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income until realized. The amortized cost of available-for-sale debt securities is adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts to maturity or, in the case of mortgage-backed securities, over the estimated life of the security.

Securities designated as held-to-maturity are stated at cost adjusted for amortization of the related premiums and accretion of discounts, using the interest method. The Company has the positive intent and ability to hold these securities to maturity.

The Company held no trading securities as of March 31, 2012 or December 31, 2011.

Amortization, accretion and accrued interest are included in interest income on securities. Realized gains and losses, and declines in value judged to be other than temporary, are included in net securities gains or losses. Gains and losses on the sale of securities available-for-sale are determined using the specific-identification method.

LOANS

The Company grants one-to four-family, multi-family residential, commercial, and land mortgage loans, and consumer and construction loans, and lines of credit to customers. Certain first mortgage loans are originated and sold under loan sale agreements. A substantial portion of the loan portfolio is represented by mortgage loans secured by properties located throughout the greater New Orleans area. The ability of the Company’s debtors to honor their contracts is dependent, in part, upon real estate values and general economic conditions in this area.

Loans are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balance adjusted for charge-offs, the allowance for loan losses, and any deferred fees or costs on originated loans. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance.

9

When the payment of principal or interest on a loan is delinquent for more than 90 days, or earlier in some cases, the loan is placed on non-accrual status, unless the loan is in the process of collection and the underlying collateral fully supports the carrying value of the loan. If the decision is made to continue accruing interest on the loan, periodic reviews are made to confirm the accruing status of the loan.  All interest accrued but not collected on loans placed in non-accrual status or on loans charged-off, is reversed against income.  The interest on these loans is accounted for on the cash basis or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual basis.  Loans are returned to accrual basis when all of the principal and interest contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

The Company considers a loan to be impaired when, based upon current information and events, it believes it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The Company’s impaired loans include performing and non-performing loans on which full payment of principal or interest is not expected. The Company calculates an allowance required for impaired loans based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, or at the loan’s observable market price or the fair value of its collateral.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance available for losses incurred on loans. All losses are charged to the allowance for loan losses when the loss actually occurs or when a determination is made that a loss is likely to occur. Recoveries are credited to the allowance at the time of recovery.

The allowance is an amount that represents the amount of probable and reasonably estimable known and inherent losses in the loan portfolio, based on evaluations of the collectibility of loans. The evaluations take into consideration such factors as changes in the types and amount of loans in the loan portfolio, historical loss experience, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral, estimated losses relating to specifically identified loans, and current economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates including, among others, exposure at default, the amount and timing of expected future cash flows on impacted loans, value of collateral, estimated losses on our commercial and residential loan portfolios and general amounts for historical loss experience. All of these estimates may be susceptible to significant change.

It should be understood that estimates of future loan losses involve an exercise of judgment. While it is possible that in particular periods, the Company may sustain losses which are substantial relative to the allowance for loan losses, it is the judgment of management that the allowance for loan losses reflected in the accompanying statements of condition was appropriate under U.S. GAAP.

LOANS HELD-FOR-SALE

Loans held-for-sale include originated mortgage loans intended for sale in the secondary market, which are carried at the lower of cost or estimated market value. Loans held-for-sale are identified at the time of origination, in accordance with the Company’s interest rate risk strategy. In addition, the Company occasionally sells loans that it originates, but cannot hold, due to regulatory limitations on loans to one borrower or concentrations of credit in a particular property type or industry.

LOAN FEES, LOAN COSTS, DISCOUNTS AND PREMIUMS

Loan origination and commitment fees and certain direct loan origination costs are deferred and amortized as an adjustment to the related loan’s yield using the interest method over the contractual life of the loan.

Discounts received in connection with mortgage loans purchased are accreted to income over the term of the loan using the interest method. Premiums on purchased loans are amortized over the term of the loan using the interest method.

INCOME TAXES

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are reflected at currently enacted income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets and liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Accounting principles generally require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income. Although certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities, are reported as a separate component of the shareholders’ equity section of the balance sheets, such items, along with income, are components of comprehensive income.

10

USE OF ESTIMATES

In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheets and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to the determination of the allowance for losses on loans and deferred taxes.

The unrealized losses on the company’s investments were caused by interest rate increases.  Because the decline in the market value is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality, and because the Company has the ability and intent to hold these investments until a recovery of fair value, which may be at maturity, the Company did not consider these investment to be other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2012.

NOTE 6 – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company adopted FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements, on January 1, 2008 for all financial assets and liabilities and nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are recognized at fair value in the financial statements.  FASB ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

FASB ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid upon transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability. The fair value should be calculated based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, not on assumptions specific to the entity.  In addition, the fair value of liabilities should include consideration of non-performance risk including our own credit risk.

In addition to defining fair value, FASB ASC 820 expands the disclosure requirements around fair value and establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs.  The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three levels based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market.  The level in the fair value hierarchy within which a fair value measurement falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.  These levels are:

20

·   Level 1 - Quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

·   Level 2 - Observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level I, such as quoted prices for similar instrumentsin active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, or other inputs that areobservable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data.

·   Level 3 - Inputs are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that marketparticipants would use in pricing the asset or liability.  The fair values are therefore determined using model-basedtechniques that include option pricing models, discounted cash flow models, and similar techniques.

The following table presents the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.  All of the mortgage-backed securities reported at fair value on March 31, 2012, and December 31, 2011, were secured by first mortgage loans on residential real estate.

During the first quarter of 2012, the Bank purchased a branch office building and related improvements in Covington, Louisiana from a regional commercial bank which consolidated its operations in the market.  The purchase did not include deposits or loans of the former owner.  Management anticipates opening the new location as a full service branch office in June 2012.

The Company’s results of operations are primarily dependent on the results of the Bank, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The Bank’s results of operations depend, to a large extent, on net interest income, which is the difference between the income earned on its loan and investment portfolios and the cost of funds, consisting of the interest paid on deposits and borrowings. Results of operations are also affected by provisions for, or recoveries from, the allowance for loan losses, fee income and other non-interest income and non-interest expense. Non-interest expense principally consists of compensation and employee benefits, office occupancy and equipment expense, data processing, advertising and business promotion and other expense. Our results of operations are also significantly affected by general economic and competitive conditions, particularly changes in interest rates, government policies and actions of regulatory authorities. Future changes in applicable law, regulations or government policies may materially impact our financial conditions and results of operations.

Critical Accounting Policies

In reviewing and understanding financial information for the Company, you are encouraged to read and understand the significant accounting policies used in preparing our financial statements. These policies are described in Note 1 of the notes to our financial statements. The accounting and financial reporting policies of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and to general practices within the banking industry. Accordingly, the financial statements require certain estimates, judgments, and assumptions, which are believed to be reasonable, based upon the information available. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the periods presented. The following accounting policies comprise those that management believes are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results. These policies require numerous estimates or economic assumptions that may prove inaccurate or may be subject to variations which may significantly affect our reported results and financial condition for the period or in future periods.

Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged to expense. Loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses when management believes that the collectibility of the principal is unlikely. Subsequent recoveries are added to the allowance. The allowance is an amount that represents the amount of probable and reasonably estimable known and inherent losses in the loan portfolio, based on evaluations of the collectibility of loans. The evaluations take into consideration such factors as changes in the types and amount of loans in the loan portfolio, historical loss experience, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, estimated losses relating to specifically identified loans, and current economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates including, among others, exposure at default, the amount and timing of expected future cash flows on impacted loans, the value of collateral, estimated losses on our commercial and residential loan portfolios and general amounts for historical loss experience. All of these estimates may be susceptible to significant change.

While management uses the best information available to make loan loss allowance evaluations, adjustments to the allowance may be necessary based on changes in economic and other conditions or changes in accounting guidance. Historically, our estimates of the allowance for loan loss have not required significant adjustments from management’s initial estimates. In addition, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, as an integral part of its examination processes, periodically reviews our allowance for loan losses. The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency may require the recognition of adjustments to the allowance for loan losses based on its judgment of information available to it at the time of its examinations. To the extent that actual outcomes differ from management’s estimates, additional provisions to the allowance for loan losses may be required that would adversely impact earnings in future periods.

23

Income Taxes. We make estimates and judgments to calculate some of our tax liabilities and determine the recoverability of some of our deferred tax assets, which arise from temporary differences between the tax and financial statement recognition of revenues and expenses. We also estimate a reserve for deferred tax assets if, based on the available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the recorded deferred tax assets will not be realized in future periods. These estimates and judgments are inherently subjective. Historically, our estimates and judgments to calculate our deferred tax accounts have not required significant revision to our initial estimates.

In evaluating our ability to recover deferred tax assets, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including our past operating results, recent cumulative losses and our forecast of future taxable income. In determining future taxable income, we make assumptions for the amount of taxable income, the reversal of temporary differences and the implementation of feasible and prudent tax planning strategies. These assumptions require us to make judgments about our future taxable income and are consistent with the plans and estimates we use to manage our business. Any reduction in estimated future taxable income may require us to record a valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets. An increase in the valuation allowance would result in additional income tax expense in the period and could have a significant impact on our future earnings.

Comparison of Financial Condition at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011

Total assets were $319.3 million at March 31, 2012, an increase of $6.2 million from December 31, 2011.  Cash and cash equivalents declined by $23.1 million to $4.5 million at March 31, 2012.  Total securities available-for-sale were $15.4 million at March 31, 2012, a decrease of $7.4 million compared to December 31, 2011.  This decrease was due to the maturity of $6.0 million in US Agency debt securities and a $1.4 million reduction in the balance of available-for-sale mortgage-backed securities.  During the first quarter of 2012, total securities held-to-maturity increased by $26.8 million, to $86.4 million.  This increase in the balance of our securities held-to-maturity was due to the purchase of $27.4 million in US Agency issued CMOs and $4 million in US Agency issued mortgage-backed securities.  These purchases were partially offset by the receipt of $4.6 million in scheduled principal payments and unscheduled prepayments of principal on mortgage-backed securities.  Net loans receivable were $204.7 million at March 31, 2012, an increase of $9.0 million compared to December 31, 2011.  During the quarter ended March 31, 2012, our first mortgage loans secured by single family residences increased by $3.5 million, our home equity loans and lines of credit increased by $1.1 million, our first mortgage loans secured by multifamily residential collateral increased by $4.0 million, and first mortgage loans secured by non-residential commercial real estate increased by $1.1 million.

Total impaired loans were $1.1 million at both March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.  At these dates, our impaired loans were comprised solely of nonaccrual loans.  Other real estate owned increased by $300,000 to $832,000 during the first three months of 2012.  At March 31, 2012, our other real estate owned was comprised of a restaurant located in Baton Rouge, Louisiana with a fair value of $300,000, a single family residence located in New Orleans with a fair market value of $150,000, and the Bank’s participation interest in a $170 million construction loan secured by a multi-use development in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, which had a fair value of $382,000 at March 31, 2012.  Total nonperforming assets were $1.9 million at March 31, 2012, and $1.6 million at December 31, 2011.  Expressed as a percentage of total assets, nonperforming assets were 0.60% at March 31, 2012, and 0.51% at December 31, 2011.

Total deposits were $193.4 million at March 31, 2012, and $194.3 million at December 31, 2011.  At the end of the first quarter of 2012, our total deposits were comprised of $9.4 million in noninterest bearing accounts and $184.0 million of interest bearing accounts.  Total Federal Home Loan Bank advances and other borrowings were $64.2 million at March 31, 2012, an increase of $7.1 million compared to December 31, 2011.  This increase in total borrowings was due to $7.5 million in short-term FHLB advances used to fund the growth in our loan portfolio during the quarter.

Total shareholders’ equity was $58.2 million at March 31, 2012, an increase of $727,000 from December 31, 2011.  Total shareholders’ equity was increased by $519,000 in net income, and the release of 42,284 shares held by the Recognition and Retention Plan Trust, with a cost basis of $533,000, which became vested and were released to plan participants.  These increases were partially offset by the acquisition of 22,036 shares of common stock at an aggregate cost of $352,000, pursuant to our stock repurchase plans, and a $39,000 reduction in accumulated other comprehensive income.    The Bank’s tier 1 capital ratio was 14.86% at March 31, 2012, which was well in excess of well-capitalized regulatory standards at such date.  Tier 1 risk-based capital and total risk-based capital were 28.73% and 29.79%, respectively, at March 31, 2012.

Comparison of Our Operating Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2012 and 2011

General.  Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 was $519,000, a decrease of $60,000 from the first quarter of 2011.  Diluted earnings per share were $0.18 for both quarters ended March 31, 2012 and 2011.  Net interest income was $2.4 million during the first quarter of 2012, a decrease of $27,000 compared to the first quarter of 2011.  Non-interest income increased by $74,000 between the respective quarters due primarily to increased gains on the sale of residential mortgage loans.  Non-interest expense was $1.9 million for the first quarter of 2012, an increase of $118,000 compared to the first quarter of 2011.

25

Interest Income.  Net interest income was $2.4 million during the first quarter of 2012, a decrease of $27,000 compared to the first quarter of 2011.  During the 2012 period, interest income was $3.6 million, a decrease of $279,000 compared to the 2011 period.  This decrease in interest income was attributed to a decrease in average interest-earning assets of $7.2 million between the respective quarterly periods, due to a reduction in our investment securities portfolio, and a 25 basis point decrease in the average yield on our interest-earning assets.  The average yield on our interest-earning assets was 4.63% and 4.88%, respectively, for the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011.  Interest income on loans receivable was $2.7 million during the first quarter of both 2012 and 2011.  We saw a $17.3 million increase in the average balance of our loans receivable during the first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011, although this was offset by a 53 basis point reduction in the average yield earned on our loan portfolio.  The average balance of our mortgage-backed securities increased by $13.5 million while the average yield on our mortgage-backed securities decreased by 130 basis points during the first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011, resulting in a decrease in interest income on mortgage-backed securities of $117,000.  Interest income on investment securities decreased by $156,000 to $40,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2012 compared to the three month period ended March 31, 2011.  This decrease in interest income on investment securities was primarily due to a $42.5 million decrease in the average balance of our investment securities.

Interest Expense.  Total interest expense was $1.1 million, with our interest-bearing liabilities having an average cost of 1.83% during the first quarter of 2012, compared to $1.4 million and an average cost of 2.19% for the first quarter of 2011.  The average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits was 1.22% during the quarter ended March 31, 2012, a decrease of 35 basis points from the quarter ended March 31, 2011.  Interest expense on borrowings was $552,000 at an average cost of 3.71% during the first quarter of 2012, and $653,000 at an average cost of 3.83% during the first quarter of 2011.  The net interest rate spread between our interest-earning assets and our interest-bearing liabilities improved to 2.80% for the first quarter of 2012, compared to 2.69% for the first quarter of 2011.  Our net interest margin, which expresses net interest income as a percentage of average interest-earning assets, was 3.18% for the three month period ended March 31, 2012, an increase of four basis points from the three month period ended March 31, 2011.

Provision for Loan Losses. We have identified the evaluation of the allowance for loan losses as a critical accounting policy where amounts are sensitive to material variation. This policy is significantly affected by our judgment and uncertainties and there is a likelihood that materially different amounts would be reported under different, but reasonably plausible, conditions or assumptions. Our activity in the provision for loan losses, which are charges or recoveries to operating results, is undertaken in order to maintain a level of total allowance for losses that management believes covers all known and inherent losses that are both probable and reasonably estimable at each reporting date. Our evaluation process typically includes, among other things, an analysis of delinquency trends, non-performing loan trends, the level of charge-offs and recoveries, prior loss experience, total loans outstanding, the volume of loan originations, the type, size and geographic concentration of our loans, the value of collateral securing the loan, the borrower’s ability to repay and repayment performance, the number of loans requiring heightened management oversight, local economic conditions and industry experience. Various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review our allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require us to make additional provisions for estimated loan losses based upon judgments different from those of management.

The Company recorded provisions for loan losses of $55,000 during the first quarter of 2012, compared to provisions for loan losses of $37,000 during the first quarter of 2011.  Our allowance for loan losses was $1.7 million at March 31, 2012, or 160.31% of our non-performing loans at such date.  Stated as a percentage of total loans receivable, our allowance for loan losses was 0.85% and 0.91% at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.  The Company recorded charge-offs of $48,000 against its home equity loans and lines of credit and $69,000 against its consumer loans during the first quarter of 2012.

Non-interest Income.  Non-interest income for the first quarter of 2012 was $274,000, an increase of $74,000 from the first quarter of 2011.  Customer service fees, which are primarily comprised of fees earned on transaction accounts and broker fees earned on certain loan sales, were $140,000 during the 2012 period, an increase of $15,000 from the 2011 period.  During the quarter ended March 31, 2012, the Bank sold $5.9 million in mortgage loans resulting in gains of $109,000 compared to the sale of $3.8 million in mortgage loans which resulted in gains of $56,000 during the quarter ended March 31, 2011.  Other non-interest income was $25,000 and $19,000, respectively for the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011.

Non-interest Expense. Non-interest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 was $1.9 million, an increase of $118,000 from the quarter ended March 31, 2011.  Salaries and employee benefits expense was $1.2 million during the first quarter of 2012, an increase of $59,000 compared to the first quarter of 2011.  The increase in salaries and benefits expense was primarily due to an increase in commissions earned on loan originations and overall higher levels of salaries due to an increase in our number of employees.  Occupancy expenses were $291,000 and $277,000 for the respective quarters ended March 31, 2012 and 2011.  This increase in occupancy expense was attributed to repairs and renovations to our new branch office.  The Louisiana Bank Shares tax was $58,000 and $57,000, respectively, for the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011.  Our FDIC deposit insurance premiums decreased by $16,000 during the first three months of 2012 compared to the first three months of 2011.  This decrease in our FDIC deposit insurance premium was due to a reduction in the base assessment applicable to our institution.  The net cost of OREO operations was $38,000 for the first quarter of 2012, an increase of $36,000 compared to the first quarter of 2011.  During the 2012 period, the Company recorded write-downs of $30,000 against its OREO.  Other non-interest expenses were $248,000 and $224,000, respectively, for the period ended March 31, 2012 and 2011.  This increase was primarily due to increases in our advertising expenses, postage expense and costs associated with our public reporting requirements.

26

Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense was $277,000 based on pre-tax income of $796,000 during the first quarter of 2012 compared to income tax expense of $306,000 on pre-tax income of $885,000 during the first quarter of 2011.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary sources of funds are from deposits, amortization of loans, loan prepayments and the maturity of loans, mortgage-backed securities and other investments, and other funds provided from operations. While scheduled payments from the amortization of loans and mortgage-backed securities and maturing investment securities are relatively predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments can be greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition. We also maintain excess funds in short-term, interest-bearing assets that provide additional liquidity. At March 31, 2012, our cash and cash equivalents amounted to $4.5 million. In addition, at such date our available-for-sale investment and mortgage-backed securities amounted to an aggregate of $15.4 million.

We use our liquidity to fund existing and future loan commitments, to fund maturing certificates of deposit and demand deposit withdrawals, to invest in other interest-earning assets, and to meet operating expenses. At March 31, 2012, we had certificates of deposit maturing within the next 12 months amounting to $83.8 million. Based upon historical experience, we anticipate that a significant portion of the maturing certificates of deposit will be redeposited with us.  At March 31, 2012, we had $64.2 million in total borrowings, including $38.2 million in FHLB advances and $26.0 million in reverse repurchase agreements with commercial banks.

In addition to cash flow from loan and securities payments and prepayments as well as from sales of available for sale securities, we have significant borrowing capacity available to fund liquidity needs. In recent years we have utilized borrowings as a cost efficient addition to deposits as a source of funds. As a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas, we pledge residential mortgage loans and mortgage-backed securities as collateral for advances.  At March 31, 2012, the Company had $125.5 million in additional borrowing capacity available through the Federal Home Loan Bank.

The following table summarizes our contractual cash obligations at March 31, 2012.

	Payments Due by Period
	Total		To 1 Year		More Than 1 Year to 3 Years		More Than 3 Years to 5 Years		More Than 5 Years
	(Dollars In Thousands)
Certificates of Deposit	$	133,211	$	83,816	$	32,848	$	16,547	$	-
FHLB Advances and Other Borrowings		64,170		38,035		14,927		8,037		3,171
Total Long-Term Debt		197,381		121,851		47,775		24,584		3,171
Operating Lease Obligations	$	136	$	34	$	68	$	34	$	-
Total Contractual Obligations	$	197,517	$	121,885	$	47,843	$	24,618	$	3,171

We anticipate that we will continue to have sufficient funds and alternative funding sources to meet our current commitments.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices

The financial statements, accompanying notes, and related financial data of the Company presented herein have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without considering the changes in purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of operations. Most of our assets and liabilities are monetary in nature; therefore, the impact of interest rates has a greater impact on our performance than the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the prices of goods and services.
