1.Presentation of Interim Information

 

First Savings Financial Group, Inc. (the “Company”) is the thrift holding company of First Savings Bank, F.S.B. (the “Bank”), a wholly-owned subsidiary. The Bank is a federally-chartered savings bank which provides a variety of banking services to individuals and business customers through twelve locations in southern Indiana. The Bank attracts deposits primarily from the general public and uses those funds, along with other borrowings, primarily to originate residential mortgage, commercial mortgage, construction, commercial business and consumer loans, and to a lesser extent, to invest in mortgage-backed securities and other securities.

 

The Bank has three-wholly owned subsidiaries: First Savings Investments, Inc., a Nevada corporation that manages a securities portfolio, FFCC, Inc., which is an Indiana corporation that participates in commercial real estate development and leasing, and Southern Indiana Financial Corporation, which is currently inactive.

 

In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments considered necessary to present fairly the financial position as of June 30, 2012, the results of operations for the three- and nine-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, and the cash flows for the nine-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. All of these adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. Such adjustments are the only adjustments included in the unaudited consolidated financial statements. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements, conform to general practices within the banking industry and are presented as permitted by the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not contain certain information included in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the year ended September 30, 2011 included in the Form 10-K.

 

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

At June 30, 2012, the Company did not have any securities held to maturity with an unrealized loss.

 

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluation. Consideration is given to (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and (3) the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.

 

The total available for sale debt securities in loss positions at June 30, 2012 have depreciated approximately 1.20% from the Company’s amortized cost basis and are fixed and variable rate securities with a weighted-average yield of 4.13% and a weighted-average coupon rate of 4.45% at June 30, 2012.

 

U.S. government agency mortgage-backed securities and CMOs, and municipal bonds in loss positions at June 30, 2012 had depreciated approximately 0.57% from the Company’s amortized cost basis as of June 30, 2012. All of the agency and municipal securities are issued by U.S. government agencies, U.S. government-sponsored enterprises and municipal governments, and are generally secured by first mortgage loans and municipal project revenues.

The unrealized losses on agency securities and municipal bonds relate principally to current interest rates for similar types of securities. In analyzing an issuer’s financial condition, management considers whether the securities are issued by the federal government, its agencies, or other governments, whether downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred, and the results of reviews of the issuer’s financial condition. As management has the ability to hold debt securities to maturity, or for the foreseeable future if classified as available for sale, no declines are deemed to be other-than-temporary.

 

At June 30, 2012, the five privately-issued CMO and ABS securities in loss positions had depreciated approximately 11.82% from the Company’s carrying value and include securities collateralized by residential mortgage loans and residential home equity loans. Four of these securities with fair values totaling $737,000 and unrealized losses of $97,000 at June 30, 2012 were rated below investment grade by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization (“NRSRO”).

 

The Company evaluates the existence of a potential credit loss component related to the decline in fair value of the privately-issued CMO and ABS portfolios each quarter using an independent third party analysis. At June 30, 2012, the Company held nineteen privately-issued CMO and ABS securities acquired in a 2009 bank acquisition with an aggregate carrying value of $3.3 million and fair value of $3.9 million that have been downgraded to a substandard regulatory classification due to a downgrade of the security’s credit quality rating by various rating agencies. Based on the independent third party analysis of the expected cash flows, management has determined that the declines in value for these securities are temporary and, as a result, no other-than-temporary impairment has been recognized on the privately-issued CMO and ABS portfolios. While the Company did not recognize a credit-related impairment loss at June 30, 2012, additional deterioration in market, economic or other conditions that affect the value of the underlying collateral may have an adverse impact on the credit quality in the future and therefore, require a credit-related impairment charge.

 

On May 31, 2012 the Company invested $5.0 million in a managed brokerage account that invests in small and medium lot, investment grade municipal bonds. The brokerage account is managed by an investment advisory firm registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. At June 30, 2012, trading account securities recorded at fair value totaled $2.1 million, comprised of investment grade municipal bonds. The remaining $2.9 million of the managed brokerage account was invested in Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insured deposits at June 30, 2012. During the three and nine months ended June 30, 2012, the Company reported net gains on trading account securities of $31,000, including realized gains on the sale of securities and unrealized gains on securities held as of the balance sheet date.

 

During the three and nine months ended June 30, 2012, the Company realized gross gains on sales of available for sale agency securities of $18,000. During the nine months ended June 30, 2011, the Company realized gross gains on sales of available for sale municipal securities of $68,000.

The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, public information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, and current economic trends, among other factors. The Company classifies loans based on credit risk at least quarterly. The Company uses the following regulatory definitions for risk ratings:

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

Loss: Loans classified as loss are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance on the Company’s books as an asset, without establishment of a specific valuation allowance or charge-off, is not warranted.

Modification of a loan is considered to be a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) if the debtor is experiencing financial difficulties and the Company grants a concession to the debtor that it would not otherwise consider. By granting the concession, the Company expects to obtain more cash or other value from the debtor, or to increase the probability of receipt, than would be expected by not granting the concession. The concession may include, but is not limited to, reduction of the stated interest rate of the loan, reduction of accrued interest, extension of the maturity date or reduction of the face amount or maturity amount of the debt. A concession will be granted when, as a result of the restructuring, the Company does not expect to collect all amounts due, including interest at the original stated rate. A concession may also be granted if the debtor is not able to access funds elsewhere at a market rate for debt with similar risk characteristics as the restructured debt. The Company’s determination of whether a loan modification is a TDR considers the individual facts and circumstances surrounding each modification.

 

Loans modified in a TDR may be retained in accrual status if the borrower has maintained a period of performance in which the borrower’s lending relationship was not greater than ninety days delinquent at the time of restructuring and the Company determines the future collection of principal and interest is reasonably assured. Loans modified in a TDR that are placed on nonaccrual status at the time of restructuring will continue in nonaccrual status until the Company determines the future collection of principal and interest is reasonably assured, which generally requires that the borrower demonstrate a period of performance according to the restructured terms of at least six consecutive months.

 

The following table summarizes the Company’s recorded investment in TDRs by class of loan and accrual status at June 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011. There was no specific reserve included in the allowance for loan losses related to TDRs at June 30, 2012 or September 30, 2011.

For the TDRs listed above, the terms of modification included temporary interest-only payment periods, reduction of the state interest rate, capitalization of accrued interest, extension of the maturity date, and the renewal of matured loans where the debtor was unable to access funds elsewhere at a market interest rate for debt with similar risk characteristics.

 

The Company had not committed to lend any additional amounts as of June 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011 to customers with outstanding loans classified as TDRs.

 

During the nine-month period ended June 30, 2012, the Company had one TDR with a balance of $262,000 that was modified within the previous twelve months for which there was a payment default (defined as more than 90 days past due). The Company recognized a net charge-off of $42,000 for this TDR during the nine-month period ended June 30, 2012.

 

4.Real Estate Development and Construction

 

On March 22, 2011 the Company acquired a 4.077 acre parcel of land in New Albany, Indiana for $2.97 million. On April 5, 2012, the Bank received approval from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”) to develop the land for retail purposes through its subsidiary, FFCC. The retail development may include a future branch location, but the Bank has not yet filed an application with the OCC seeking approval to locate a branch on the site. The total cost of the development is expected to be approximately $6.9 million, including the $4.1 million paid as of June 30, 2012. The development costs will be partially funded by a $5.0 million loan commitment from another financial institution. The loan commitment is for a 10 year term with a fixed interest rate of 4.0% for the first six years of the loan term, then adjusting annually thereafter to the one-year LIBOR rate plus 250 basis points. The development is expected to be completed by December 31, 2013.

5.Supplemental Disclosure for Earnings Per Share

 

When presented, basic earnings per share are computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity. Earnings per share information is presented below for the three-month and nine-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.

7.Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements, provides the framework for measuring fair value. That framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques 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 under FASB ASC Topic 820 are described as follows:

 

  Level 1: Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices, unadjusted, for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.  A quoted market price in an active market provides the most reliable evidence of fair value and shall be used to measure fair value whenever available.
     
  Level 2: Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted market prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or inputs to the valuation methodology that are derived principally from or can be corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
     
  Level 3: Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.  Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using discounted cash flow methodologies, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

 

A description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy, is set forth below. These valuation methodologies were applied to all of the Company’s financial assets carried at fair value or the lower of cost or fair value. The table below presents the balances of financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring and nonrecurring basis as of June 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011. The Company had no liabilities measured at fair value as of June 30, 2012 or September 30, 2011.

Fair value is based upon quoted market prices where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based on internally developed models or obtained from third parties that primarily use, as inputs, observable market-based parameters or a matrix pricing model that employs the Bond Market Association’s standard calculations for cash flow and price/yield analysis and observable market-based parameters. Valuation adjustments may be made to ensure that financial instruments are recorded at fair value, or the lower of cost or fair value. These adjustments may include unobservable parameters. Any such valuation adjustments have been applied consistently over time.

The Company’s valuation methodologies may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. While management believes the Company’s valuation methodologies are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date.

 

Trading Account Securities and Securities Available for Sale. Securities classified as trading and available for sale are reported at fair value on a recurring basis.  These securities are classified as Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy where quoted market prices from reputable third-party brokers are available in an active market. If quoted market prices are not available, the Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service.  These securities are reported using Level 2 inputs and the fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, U.S. government and agency yield curves, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information, and the security’s terms and conditions, among other factors. Changes in fair value of trading account securities are reported in noninterest income. Changes in fair value of securities available for sale are recorded in other comprehensive income, net of income tax effect.

 

Derivative Financial Instruments. Derivative financial instruments consist of an interest rate cap contract. As such, significant fair value inputs can generally be verified by counterparties and do not involve significant management judgments (Level 2 inputs).

 

Impaired Loans. Impaired loans are carried at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s existing rate or the fair value of collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. Impaired loans are evaluated and valued at the time the loan is identified as impaired at the lower of cost or market value. For collateral dependent impaired loans, market value is measured based on the value of the collateral securing these loans and is classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Collateral may be real estate and/or business assets, including equipment, inventory and/or accounts receivable, and its fair value is generally determined based on real estate appraisals or other independent evaluations by qualified professionals. Impaired loans are reviewed and evaluated on at least a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly, based on the same factors identified above.

 

Loans Held for Sale. Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or market value. The portfolio comprised of residential real estate loans and fair value is based on specific prices of underlying contracts for sales to investors. These measurements are carried at Level 2.

 

Foreclosed Real Estate. Foreclosed real estate held for sale is reported at fair value less estimated costs to dispose of the property using Level 2 inputs. The fair values are determined by real estate appraisals using valuation techniques consistent with the market approach using recent sales of comparable properties. In cases where such inputs are unobservable, the balance is reflected within the Level 3 hierarchy.

 

Transfers Between Categories. There were no transfers into or out of the Company’s Level 3 financial assets for the nine-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. In addition, there were no transfers into or out of Levels 1 and 2 of the fair value hierarchy during the nine-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.

GAAP requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments for interim reporting periods, whether or not recognized in the consolidated balance sheet. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. In that regard, the derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, could not be realized in immediate settlement of the instruments. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented do not represent the underlying value of the Company. The estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments are as follows:

 

   June 30, 2012   September 30, 2011 
   Carrying   Fair   Carrying   Fair 
   Amount   Value   Amount   Value

FIRST SAVINGS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

(Unaudited)

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

For cash and short-term instruments, including cash and due from banks and interest-bearing deposits with banks, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

 

Debt and Equity Securities

 

For marketable equity securities, the fair values are based on quoted market prices. For debt securities, the Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service and the fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, U.S. government and agency yield curves, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information, and the security’s terms and conditions, among other factors. For FHLB stock, a restricted equity security, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value because it is not marketable.

 

Loans

 

The fair value of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and terms. The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable approximates its fair value.

 

Deposits

 

The fair value of demand and savings deposits and other transaction accounts is the amount payable on demand at the balance sheet date. The fair value of fixed-maturity time deposits is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the rates currently offered for deposits with similar remaining maturities. The carrying amount of accrued interest payable approximates its fair value.

 

Borrowed Funds

 

Borrowed funds include borrowings from the FHLB and repurchase agreements. Fair value for FHLB advances and long-term repurchase agreements is estimated by discounting the future cash flows at current interest rates for FHLB advances of similar maturities. For short-term repurchase agreements and FHLB line of credit borrowings, the carrying value is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

 

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

For derivative financial instruments, the fair values generally represent an estimate of the amount the Company would receive or pay upon termination of the agreement at the reporting date, taking into account the current interest rates, and exclusive of any accrued interest.

8.Employee Stock Ownership Plan

 

On October 6, 2008, the Company established a leveraged employee stock ownership plan (“ESOP”) covering substantially all employees. The ESOP trust acquired 203,363 shares of Company common stock at a cost of $10.00 per share financed by a term loan with the Company. The employer loan and the related interest income are not recognized in the consolidated financial statements as the debt is serviced from Company contributions. Dividends payable on allocated shares are charged to retained earnings and are satisfied by the allocation of cash dividends to participant accounts. Dividends payable on unallocated shares are not considered dividends for financial reporting purposes. Shares held by the ESOP trust are allocated to participant accounts based on the ratio of the current year principal and interest payments to the total of the current year and future years’ principal and interest to be paid on the employer loan. Compensation expense is recognized based on the average fair value of shares released for allocation to participant accounts during the year with a corresponding credit to stockholders’ equity. Compensation expense recognized for the three- and nine-month periods ended June 30, 2012 amounted to $64,000 and $186,000, respectively. Compensation expense recognized for the three- and nine-month periods ended June 30, 2011 amounted to $58,000 and $183,000, respectively. Company common stock held by the ESOP trust at June 30, 2012 was as follows:

 

Allocated shares   79,895 
Unearned shares   123,468 
Total ESOP shares   203,363 
      
Fair value of unearned shares  $2,179,000 

 

9.Stock Based Compensation Plans

 

The Company’s 2010 Equity Incentive Plan (“Plan”), which the Company’s shareholders approved in February 2010, provides for the award of stock options, restricted shares and performance shares.  The aggregate number of shares of the Company’s common stock available for issuance under the Plan may not exceed 355,885 shares.  The Company may grant both non-statutory and statutory (i.e., incentive) stock options that may not have a term exceeding ten years.  An award of a performance share is a grant of a right to receive shares of the Company’s common stock contingent upon the achievement of specific performance criteria or other objectives set at the grant date.  Awards granted under the Plan may be granted either alone, in addition to, or in tandem with any other award granted under the Plan.  The terms of the Plan include a provision whereby all unearned options and shares become immediately exercisable and fully vested upon a change in control.

In April 2010, the Company funded a trust, administered by an independent trustee, which acquired 101,681 common shares in the open market at a price per share of $13.60 for a total cost of $1.4 million. These acquired common shares were later granted to directors, officers and key employees in the form of restricted stock in May 2010 at a price per share of $13.25 for a total of $1.3 million. The difference between the purchase price and grant price of the common shares issued as restricted stock, totaling $41,000, was recognized by the Company as a reduction of additional paid in capital. The restricted stock vests ratably over a five-year period from the grant date. Compensation expense is measured based on the fair market value of the restricted stock at the grant date and is recognized ratably over the period during which the shares are earned (the vesting period). Compensation expense related to restricted stock recognized for both the three-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 amounted to $65,000. Compensation expense related to restricted stock recognized for both the nine-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 amounted to $195,000. A summary of the Company’s nonvested restricted shares activity under the Plan as of June 30, 2012 and changes during the nine-month period then ended is presented below.

 

       Weighted 
   Number   Average 
   of   Grant Date 
   Shares   Fair Value 
         
Nonvested at October 1, 2011   78,470   $13.25

Forfeited   -    - 
           
Nonvested at June 30, 2012   58,850   $13.25 

 

At June 30, 2012, there was $747,000 of total unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested restricted shares. The compensation expense is expected to be recognized over the remaining vesting period of 2.9 years.

 

In May 2010, the Company awarded 177,549 incentive and 76,655 non-statutory stock options to directors, officers and key employees. The options granted vest ratably over five years and are exercisable in whole or in part for a period up to ten years from the date of the grant. Compensation expense is measured based on the fair market value of the options at the grant date and is recognized ratably over the period during which the shares are earned (the vesting period). The weighted average fair value at the grant date for options granted in 2010 was $3.09, as determined at the date of grant using the Binomial option pricing model.

10.Preferred Stock

 

On August 11, 2011, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (“Purchase Agreement”) with the United States Department of the Treasury, pursuant to which the Company issued 17,120 shares of the its Senior Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A (“Series A Preferred Stock”), having a liquidation amount per share equal to $1,000, for a total purchase price of $17,120,000. The Purchase Agreement was entered into, and the Series A Preferred Stock was issued, pursuant to the Small Business Lending Fund (“SBLF”) program, a $30 billion fund established under the Small Business Jobs Act of 2010, that encourages lending to small businesses by providing Tier 1 capital to qualified community banks with assets of less than $10 billion.

Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to receive non-cumulative dividends, payable quarterly, on each January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1, beginning October 1, 2011. The dividend rate, as a percentage of the liquidation amount, can fluctuate on a quarterly basis during the first ten quarters during which the Series A Preferred Stock is outstanding and may be adjusted between 1.0% and 5.0% per annum, to reflect the amount of change in the Bank’s level of Qualified Small Business Lending (“QSBL”) (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) over the baseline level calculated under the terms of the Purchase Agreement (“Baseline”).  In addition to the dividend, in the event the Bank’s level of QSBL has not increased relative to the Baseline, at the beginning of the tenth calendar quarter, the Company will be subject to an additional lending incentive fee equal to 2.0% per annum. For the eleventh dividend period through the eighteenth dividend period, inclusive, and that portion of the nineteenth dividend period before, but not including, the four and one half (4½) year anniversary of the date of issuance, the dividend rate will be fixed at between 1.0% and 7.0% per annum based upon the increase in QSBL as compared to the Baseline. After four and one half (4½) years from issuance, the dividend rate will increase to nine 9.0%. Based upon the Bank’s level of QSBL over the Baseline for purposes of calculating the dividend rate for the initial dividend period, the dividend rate for the initial dividend period ended September 30, 2011 was 4.84%. The dividend rate for the fourth dividend period ended June 30, 2012 was 1.0% and the weighted average dividend rate for the nine-month period ended June 30, 2012 was 1.0%.

 

The Series A Preferred Stock is non-voting, except in limited circumstances. In the event that the Company fails to timely make five dividend payments, whether or not consecutive, the holder of the Series A Preferred Stock will have the right, but not the obligation, to appoint a representative as an observer on the Company’s board of directors.

 

The Series A Preferred Stock may be redeemed at any time at the Company’s option, at a redemption price of one hundred percent (100%) of the liquidation amount plus accrued but unpaid dividends to the date of redemption for the current period, subject to the approval of its federal banking regulator.

 

The Series A Preferred Stock was issued in a private placement exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Company has agreed to register the Series A Preferred Stock under certain circumstances set forth in the Purchase Agreement. The Series A Preferred Stock is not subject to any contractual restrictions on transfer.

11.Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The following are summaries of recently issued accounting pronouncements that impact the accounting and reporting practices of the Company:

 

In May 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements by U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. The amendments in this ASU generally represent clarifications of FASB ASC Topic 820, but also include some instances where a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or disclosing information about fair value measurements has changed. This ASU results in common principles and requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements in accordance with U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. The amendments in this ASU are to be applied prospectively. For public entities, the amendments are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Early application by public entities is not permitted. Adoption of this ASU did not have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

 

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, Amendments to Topic 220, Comprehensive Income. Under the amendments in this ASU, an entity has the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In both choices, an entity is required to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income, and a total amount for comprehensive income. This ASU eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. The amendments in this ASU do not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income. The amendments in this ASU should be applied retrospectively. For public entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted, because compliance with the amendments is already permitted. The amendments do not require any transition disclosures. The adoption of this ASU did not have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations. ASU No. 2011-12 issued in December 2011 deferred the effective date of ASU No. 2011-05 related to the presentation of reclassifications of items out of accumulated other comprehensive income. All other requirements of ASU No. 2011-05 were not affected by ASU No. 2011-12.

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210). The update requires an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable users of the financial statements to understand the effect of netting arrangements on the entity’s financial position. The scope includes derivatives, sale and repurchase agreements and reverse sale and repurchase agreements, and securities borrowing and securities lending arrangements. The amendments in the update are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods, with disclosures required by the amendments provided retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. The adoption of this update is not expected to have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

 

12.Subsequent Event

 

The Company acquired the Indiana branch offices of Elizabethtown, Kentucky-based First Federal Savings Bank of Elizabethtown, Inc. (“First Federal”) on July 6, 2012, pursuant to an Agreement to Purchase Assets and Assume Liabilities dated February 8, 2012 (the “Agreement”). The offices are located in Corydon, Elizabeth, Georgetown and Lanesville, Indiana. The Company has consolidated the operations of the acquired Corydon office with its existing Corydon office and the operations of the acquired Georgetown office with its existing Georgetown office because of their close proximities. The acquisition expanded the Company’s presence in Harrison and Floyd Counties, Indiana.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Company assumed certain deposit and other liabilities and purchased certain performing loans, real estate and other assets associated with the four First Federal banking offices. The transaction will be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. Under the purchase method of accounting, the purchase price is assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values, net of applicable income tax effects. The excess of cost over the fair value of the acquired net assets will be recorded as goodwill. As of the filing date of this report, the Company was still in the process of determining the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities, and the related goodwill resulting from the transaction.

Critical Accounting Policies

 

During the nine-month period ended June 30, 2012, there was no significant change in the Company’s critical accounting policies or the application of critical accounting policies as disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2011.

 

Comparison of Financial Condition at June 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents decreased from $27.2 million at September 30, 2011 to $15.3 million at June 30, 2012, due to decreases in cash and due from banks of $10.4 million and interest-bearing deposits with banks of $1.5 million. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents was primarily used to fund the loan portfolio growth and purchases of securities available for sale.

 

Loans. Net loans receivable increased $10.8 million, from $354.4 million at September 30, 2011 to $365.2 million at June 30, 2012, primarily due to increases in nonresidential permanent and construction loans of $16.6 million, multi-family residential mortgage loans of $2.6 million and land and land development loans of $145,000, which more than offset decreases in commercial business loans of $4.0 million, consumer loans of $2.5 million and residential permanent and construction loans of $243,000. The decreases in commercial business loans, consumer loans and residential mortgage loans are primarily due to loan payoffs that have not been replaced by new originations for the Bank’s in-house loan portfolio. The net increase in net loans receivable was primarily funded by the decrease in cash and cash equivalents, and increases in deposits and borrowings.

PART I - ITEM 2

 

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND

ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

Trading Account Securities. Trading account securities increased by $2.1 million due to an investment on May 31, 2012 in a managed brokerage account for the purpose of participating in the short-term trading of small and medium lot, investment grade municipal bonds. At June 30, 2012, trading account securities recorded at fair value totaled $2.1 million, comprised of investment grade municipal bonds. The Company had no trading account securities at September 30, 2011.

 

Securities Available for Sale. Securities available for sale increased $45.1 million from $108.6 million at September 30, 2011 to $153.7 million at June 30, 2012 due primarily to purchases of $69.6 million, partially offset by maturities and calls of $9.1 million, principal repayments of $16.2 million and sales of $518,000. The increase in securities available for sale, primarily in U.S. government agency and sponsored enterprises securities, including mortgage-backed securities, and municipal bonds was primarily funded by the decrease in cash and cash equivalents, and increases in deposits and borrowings.

 

Securities Held to Maturity. Investment securities held-to-maturity decreased $1.1 million from $9.5 million at September 30, 2011 to $8.4 million at June 30, 2012 due primarily to principal repayments on mortgage-backed securities.

 

Deposits. Total deposits increased $15.4 million from $387.6 million at September 30, 2011 to $403.0 million at June 30, 2012 primarily due to increases in noninterest-bearing demand deposit accounts of $5.7 million, interest-bearing demand deposit accounts of $10.4 million, savings accounts of $4.2 million, and money market deposit accounts of $13.7 million, which more than offset a decrease in certificates of deposit of $18.5 million during the period. The decrease in certificates of deposit occurred in various maturity classes and in brokered certificates of deposit, which decreased $1.2 million. The decrease in certificates of deposit is primarily attributed to maturities that customers are investing in more liquid accounts given the low interest rate environment.

 

Borrowings. Borrowings from FHLB increased $44.9 million from $53.1 million at September 30, 2011 to $98.0 million at June 30, 2012 while repurchase agreements decreased $15.1 million from $16.4 million at September 30, 2011 to $1.3 million at June 30, 2012. Management has increased the level of FHLB advances in order repay matured brokered certificates of deposit and repurchase agreements, to take advantage of historically low interest rates, provide short-term liquidity and provide funding for the loan portfolio growth and purchases of available for sale securities.

 

Stockholders’ Equity. Stockholders’ equity increased $4.4 million from $76.6 million at September 30, 2011 to $81.0 million at June 30, 2012. The increase was due primarily to $3.0 million of retained net earnings and a $1.0 million increase in net unrealized gains on securities available for sale.

Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended June 30, 2012 and 2011

 

Overview. The Company reported net income of $3.1 million and net income available to common shareholders of $3.0 million, or $1.36 per diluted share, for the nine-month period ended June 30, 2012 compared to net income of $3.2 million, or $1.45 per diluted share, for the nine-month period ended June 30, 2011.

 

Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $218,000, or 4.1%, for the nine-month period ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011. Average interest-earnings assets increased $32.4 million and average interest-bearing liabilities increased $7.7 million when comparing the two periods. The tax-equivalent interest rate spread was 4.12% for 2012 as compared to 4.34% for 2011.

 

Total interest income decreased $379,000, or 5.7%, when comparing the two periods due primarily to a decrease in the average tax-equivalent yield on interest-earning assets from 5.62% for 2011 to 5.20% for 2012, which more than offset the change in interest income due to an increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets of $32.4 million from $470.8 million for 2011 to $503.2 million for 2012. The average balance of loans and investment securities increased $17.8 million and $12.7 million, respectively, when comparing the two periods.

 

Total interest expense decreased $597,000, or 45.9%, due primarily to a decrease in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities from 1.28% for 2011 to 1.08% for 2012, which more than offset the change in interest expense due to an increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities of $7.7 million from $424.4 million for 2011 to $432.1 million for 2012. The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased for 2012 primarily as a result of lower market interest rates as compared to 2011, the repricing of certificates of deposit at lower market interest rates as they matured and the utilization of lower-cost brokered certificates of deposit and FHLB borrowings as alternative sources of funding. The average balance of deposits increased $13.6 million while the average balance of borrowings decreased $5.9 million when comparing the two periods.

Rate/Volume Analysis. The following table sets forth the effects of changing rates and volumes on our net interest income for the nine-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. The rate column shows the effects attributable to changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior volume). The volume column shows the effects attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior rate). The net column represents the sum of the prior columns. Changes attributable to changes in both rate and volume have been allocated proportionally based on the absolute dollar amounts of change in each.

Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses was $897,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2012 compared to $1.1 million for the same period in 2011.

 

Net charge-offs were $674,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2012 compared to net charge-offs of $438,000 for the same period in 2011.

 

The recorded investment in nonperforming loans was $6.1 million at June 30, 2012 compared to $7.3 million at September 30, 2011 and $7.9 million at June 30, 2011. Nonperforming loans at June 30, 2012 include nonaccrual loans of $5.2 million and loans totaling $874,000 that are over 90 days past due, but still accruing interest. These loans are still accruing interest because the estimated value of the collateral and collection efforts are deemed sufficient to ensure their full recovery. The decrease in nonperforming loans from September 30, 2011 to June 30, 2012 is due primarily to a single borrower relationship that was transferred from nonaccrual to accrual status during the nine months ended June 30, 2012. This lending relationship had a total recorded investment of approximately $2.0 million at June 30, 2012 and is secured by 23 non-owner occupied, one-to-four family investment properties, which were predominately constructed in the past ten years and sold on contract to their occupants. All of these loans were current at June 30, 2012 and the borrower had made all contractual principal and interest payments for a period of at least six consecutive months.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

Gross loans receivable increased $16.2 million from $359.5 million at June 30, 2011 to $375.7 million at June 30, 2012, primarily due to increases in nonresidential permanent and construction loans of $22.7 million, multi-family residential mortgage loans of $2.6 million, and land and land development loans of $264,000, which more that offset decreases in residential permanent and construction loans of $3.0 million, commercial business loans of $2.2 million and consumer loans of $4.2 million when comparing the two periods. The decreases in residential mortgage loans, commercial business loans and consumer loans are primarily due to loan payoffs that have not been replaced by new originations.

 

The allowance for loan losses was $4.9 million at June 30, 2012 compared to $4.7 million at September 30, 2011 and $4.4 million at June 30, 2011. Management has deemed these amounts as adequate on those dates based on its best estimate of probable known and inherent loan losses. The consistent application of management’s allowance for loan losses methodology resulted in an increase in the level of the allowance for loan losses consistent with changes in the loan portfolio and overall economic conditions.

 

Noninterest Income. Noninterest income increased $95,000 for the nine-month period ended June 30, 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011. The increase was due primarily to a gain on life insurance of $321,000 and an increase in other noninterest income of $102,000 for 2012, which more than offset decreases in service charges on deposit accounts of $158,000 and net gains on the sale of loans of $149,000. The decrease in service charges on deposits was due primarily to a decrease in overdraft fee income. The increase in other income is due primarily to increases in surcharge, interchange and other fee income sources.

 

Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expenses increased $809,000 for the nine-month period ended June 30, 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011. The increase was due primarily to increases in advertising expense, professional fees, and data processing expense of $243,000, $297,000 and $246,000, respectively, which more than offset decreases in FDIC insurance premiums and net losses on foreclosed real estate of $166,000 and $134,000, respectively. The increase in advertising expense was due primarily to a rebranding and advertising campaign for the Bank’s new look and logo that was launched in September 2011. The increases in data processing and professional fees expenses are due primarily to expenditures associated with the acquisition and planned integration of the four Indiana branch locations acquired from First Federal on July 6, 2012.

 

Income Tax Expense. The Company recognized income tax expense of $1.0 million for the nine-month period ended June 30, 2012, for an effective tax rate of 24.5%, compared to income tax expense of $1.3 million, for an effective tax rate of 29.2%, for the same period in 2011. The lower effective tax rate for the nine months ended June 30, 2012 was due primarily to a higher level of tax exempt income for 2012.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2012 and 2011

 

Overview. The Company reported net income of $1.3 million and net income available to common shareholders of $1.2 million, or $0.55 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 compared to net income of $1.1 million, or $0.51 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2011.

 

Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $170,000, or 1.1%, for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011. Average interest-earnings assets increased $45.3 million and average interest-bearing liabilities increased $19.2 million when comparing the two periods. The tax-equivalent interest rate spread was 4.12% for 2012 as compared to 4.37% for 2011.

 

Total interest income decreased $33,000, or 0.2%, when comparing the two periods due primarily to a decrease in the average tax-equivalent yield on interest-earning assets from 5.60% for 2011 to 5.12% for 2012, which more than offset the change in interest income due to an increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets of $45.3 million from $481.3 million for 2011 to $526.6 million for 2012. The average balance of loans and investment securities increased $19.8 million and $22.3 million, respectively, when comparing the two periods.

 

Total interest expense decreased $203,000, or 5.0%, due primarily to a decrease in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities from 1.23% for 2011 to 1.00% for 2012. The average balance of interest-bearing liabilities increased by $19.2 million from $431.2 million for 2011 to $450.4 million for 2012. The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased for 2012 primarily as a result of lower market interest rates as compared to 2011, the repricing of certificates of deposit at lower market interest rates as they matured and the utilization of lower-cost brokered certificates of deposit and FHLB borrowings as alternatives sources of funding. The average balance of deposits increased $22.1 million while the average balance of borrowings decreased $2.8 million when comparing the two periods. The decrease in borrowings is due primarily to the maturity of $15.0 million of repurchase agreements that occurred in the quarter ended December 31, 2011, which was partially offset by increased borrowings from FHLB.
