NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Pamrapo Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Pamrapo Savings Bank, S.L.A. (the “Bank”), Pamrapo Service Corporation, Inc. and Pamrapo Investment Company, Inc. The Company’s business is conducted principally through the Bank. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include information or footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements have been included. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2008, are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the entire fiscal year. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2007 Annual Report to Shareholders and incorporated by reference into the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007.

3. NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE

Basic net income per common share is based on the weighted average number of common shares actually outstanding. Diluted net income per share is calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding to include the effect of contracts or securities exercisable or convertible into common stock, if dilutive, using the treasury stock method.

5. FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Statement No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS 157”), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 applies to other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. The primary effect of SFAS 157 on the Company was to expand the required disclosures pertaining to the methods used to determine fair values upon adoption on January 1, 2008.

SFAS 157 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 under SFAS 157 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 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.

Net impaired loans totaled $3.8 million at March 31, 2008, compared to $3.6 million at December 31, 2007. The Company received payments on impaired loans and other credits of $251,000 in 2008, added $470,000 of additional impaired loans and increased reserves $11,000 during 2008. Foreclosed assets were $486,000 at December 31, 2007 and $474,000 at March 31, 2008. There were capital improvements of $10,000, provision for loss of $22,500 and no sales of foreclosed assets during the three months ended March 31, 2008.

The following valuation techniques were used to measure fair value of assets in the table above on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2007.

Available for sale securities — Fair value on available for sale securities was based upon a market approach. Prices for securities that are fixed income instruments that are not quoted on an exchange, but are traded in active markets, are obtained through third-party data service providers or dealer market participants with whom the Company has historically transacted both purchases and sales of investment securities. As of March 31, 2008, all fair values on available for sale securities were based on prices obtained from these sources and were based on actual market quotations for each specific security.

Loans — Loans included in the above table are those that are accounted for under SFAS 114, “Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan,” in which the Company has measured 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. The fair value consists of the loan balances less valuation allowance as determined under SFAS 114.

Foreclosed assets — Fair value of foreclosed assets was based on independent third party appraisals of the properties. These values were identified based on the sales prices of similar properties in the proximate vicinity.

6. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

We consider accounting policies involving significant judgments and assumptions by management that have, or could have, a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities or on income or expense to be critical accounting policies. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant changes relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses. Determining the amount of the allowance for loan losses necessarily involves a high degree of judgment. Management reviews the level of the allowance on a quarterly basis, at a minimum, and establishes the provision for loan losses based on the composition of the loan portfolio, delinquency levels, loss experience, economic conditions, and other factors related to the collectibility of the loan portfolio. Since there has been no material shift in the composition of the loan portfolio, the level of the allowance for loan losses has changed primarily due to changes in the size of the loan portfolio and the level of nonperforming loans. We have allocated the allowance among categories of loan types as well as classification status at each period-end date. Assumptions and allocation

Table of Contents

percentages based on loan types and classification status have been consistently applied. Management regularly evaluates various risk factors related to the loan portfolio, such as type of loan, underlying collateral and payment status, and the corresponding allowance allocation percentages.

Although we believe that we use 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 regulatory authorities, as an integral part of their examinations process, periodically review our allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require us to recognize adjustments to the allowance based on their judgment about information available to them at the time of their examinations.

7. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In March 2008, the FASB issued Statement No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133” (Statement 161). Statement 161 requires entities that utilize derivative instruments to provide qualitative disclosures about their objectives and strategies for using such instruments, as well as any details of credit-risk-related contingent features contained within derivatives. Statement 161 also requires entities to disclose additional information about the amounts and location of derivatives located within the financial statements, how the provisions of SFAS 133 have been applied, and the impact that hedges have on an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. Statement 161 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact the new pronouncement will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2008, the FASB issued a FASB Staff Position (FSP) FAS 140-3, “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets and Repurchase Financing Transactions.” This FSP addresses the issue of whether or not these transactions should be viewed as two separate transactions or as one “linked” transaction. The FSP includes a “rebuttable presumption” that presumes linkage of the two transactions unless the presumption can be overcome by meeting certain criteria. The FSP will be effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008 and will apply only to original transfers made after that date; early adoption will not be allowed. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact the new pronouncement will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Changes in Financial Condition

The Company’s assets at March 31, 2008 totaled $652.1 million, which represents a decrease of $5.3 million as compared with $657.4 million at December 31, 2007.

Total cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2008 decreased $189,000 to $66.7 million when compared with $66.9 million at December 31, 2007. The decrease during the three months ended March 31, 2008 resulted primarily from a decrease in interest-bearing deposits in other banks which more than offset an increase in cash and amounts due from depository institutions.

Securities available for sale at March 31, 2008 decreased $60,000 or 6.5% to $857,000 when compared with $917,000 at December 31, 2007. The decrease during the three months ended March 31, 2008 resulted primarily from repayments on securities available for sale of $55,000 and a decrease in net unrealized gain of $5,000.

Investment securities held to maturity at March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007 totaled $10.4 million. Mortgage-backed securities held to maturity at March 31, 2008 increased $4.4 million or 3.6% to $128.3 million when compared with $123.9 million at December 31, 2007. During the three months ended March 31, 2008, purchases of mortgage-backed securities totaled $10.0 million and repayments totaled $5.6 million.

Net loans receivable amounted to $429.6 million at March 31, 2008, as compared to $439.1 million at December 31, 2007, which represents a decrease of $9.5 million or 2.2%. The decrease during the three months ended March 31, 2008 resulted primarily from principal repayments exceeding loan originations.

Foreclosed real estate consists of two single family residences.

Deposits at March 31, 2008 totaled $502.4 million as compared with $508.0 million at December 31, 2007, representing a decrease of $5.6 million or 1.1%.

Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York (“FHLB”) amounted to $84.0 million at March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007.

Stockholders’ equity totaled $58.5 million and $58.6 million at March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively. The decrease of $100,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2008 resulted primarily from net income of $1.0 million offset by cash dividends paid of $1.1 million.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2008 and 2007

Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2008 totaled $1.0 million as compared with $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007. The decrease in net income during the 2008 period resulted from increases in total interest and non-interest expenses and decreases in total interest and non-interest income, which were partially offset by a decrease in the provision for loan losses and income taxes.

Interest income on loans decreased by $365,000 or 5.0% to $7.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2008, when compared with $7.3 million for the same 2007 period. The decrease during the 2008 period resulted from a decrease of $17.5 million or 3.9% in the average balance of loans outstanding, along with a decrease of seven basis points in the yield earned on loans. Interest on mortgage-backed securities decreased $181,000 or 11.5% to $1.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2008, when compared with $1.6 million for the same 2007 period. The decrease during the 2008 period resulted from a decrease of $14.7 million or 10.6% in the average balance of mortgage-backed securities outstanding, along with a four basis point decrease in the yield earned on the mortgage-backed securities. Interest earned on investments increased $22,000 or 12.9% to $192,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2008, when compared to $170,000 during the same 2007 period primarily due to an increase of $1.1 million or 11.4% in the average balance of such assets outstanding, along with an increase of nine basis points in the yield on the portfolio.

Interest earned on other interest-earning assets increased by $316,000 or 134.5% to $551,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2008, when compared to $235,000 during the same 2007 period primarily due to an increase of $47.6 million or 262.3% in the average balance of such assets outstanding, sufficient to offset a decrease of one-hundred eighty-three basis points in the yield on the portfolio.

Interest expense on deposits increased $124,000 or 3.8% to $3.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2008, when compared to $3.3 million during the same 2007 period. Such increase was primarily attributable to an increase of $37.7 million or 8.8% in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits, partially offset by a decrease of fifteen basis points in the cost of interest-bearing deposits. Interest expense on advances and other borrowed money decreased by $97,000 or 8.6% to $1.04 million during the three months ended March 31, 2008, when compared with $1.13 million during the same 2007 period, primarily due to a decrease of $14.9 million or 15.1% in the average balance of advances and other borrowed money outstanding, partially offset by an increase of thirty-five basis points in the cost of advances and other borrowed money.

Net interest income decreased $236,000 or 4.8% during the three months ended March 31, 2008 when compared with the same 2007 period. Such decrease was due to increase in total interest expense of $131,000, along with a decrease in total interest income of $105,000. The Bank’s net interest rate spread was 2.49% in 2008 and 2.67% in 2007. During the three months ended March 31, 2008, there was a decrease in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities of four basis points, which was more than offset by a decrease of twenty-two basis point in the yield on interest-earning assets.

During the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, the Bank provided $77,500 and $195,000, respectively, as a provision for loan losses. The allowance for loan losses is based on management’s evaluation of the risk inherent in its loan portfolio and gives due consideration to the changes in general market conditions and in the nature and volume of the Bank’s loan activity. The Bank intends to continue to provide for loan losses based on its periodic review of the loan portfolio and general market conditions. At March 31, 2008 and 2007, the Bank’s non-performing loans, which were delinquent ninety days or more, totaled $5.4 million or 0.83% of total assets and $3.9 million or 0.61% of total assets, respectively. At March 31, 2008, $1.6 million of non-performing loans were accruing interest and $3.8 million were on non-accrual status. Included in the non-performing loans were $1.9 million in one-to-four family mortgage loans and $2.0 million in commercial loans. The largest commercial loan ($1.9 million) to a local hospital matured on June 1, 2007 and was not paid. The hospital is presently in bankruptcy, and the repayment of the loan is subject to bankruptcy proceedings. During the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, the Bank charged off loans aggregating $0 and $20,000, respectively. There were no recoveries during either period. The allowance for loan losses amounted to $3.2 million at March 31, 2008, representing 0.75% of total loans and 59.43% of loans delinquent ninety days or more, and $2.8 million at March 31, 2007, representing 0.63% of total loans and 72.61% of loans delinquent ninety days or more.

Non-interest income decreased $127,000 or 19.1% to $538,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2008, from $665,000 during the same 2007 period. Fees and service charges increased $20,000 which was offset by a decrease in commissions from sale of financial products of $147,000 due to economic and market conditions.

Non-interest expenses increased $103,000 or 3.0% to $3.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2008, when compared with $3.4 million during the same 2007 period. Net occupancy expense of premises, equipment, advertising, professional fees and loss on foreclosed real estate increased $37,000, $4,000, $20,000, $66,000 and $22,500 respectively, which was sufficient to offset a decrease in miscellaneous expenses of $46,000, during the 2008 period when compared with the same 2007 period.

Income taxes totaled $591,000 and $723,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The decrease during the 2008 period resulted from a decrease in pre-tax income of $348,000. The effective income tax rate was 36.9% and 37.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Bank is required by Office of Thrift Supervision (the “OTS”) regulations to maintain sufficient liquidity to ensure the Bank’s safe and sound operation. The Bank’s liquidity averaged 11.17% during the month of March 2008. The Bank adjusts its liquidity levels in order to meet funding needs for deposit outflows, payment of real estate taxes from escrow accounts on mortgage loans, repayment of borrowings, when applicable, and loan funding commitments. The Bank also adjusts its liquidity levels as appropriate to meet its asset/liability objectives.

The Bank’s primary sources of funds are deposits, amortization and prepayments of loans and mortgage-backed securities, FHLB advances, maturities of investment securities and funds provided from operations. While scheduled loan and mortgage-backed securities amortization and maturing investment securities are a relatively predictable source of funds, deposit flow and loan and mortgage-backed securities prepayments are greatly influenced by market interest rates, economic conditions and competition.

The Bank’s liquidity, represented by cash and cash equivalents, is a product of its operating, investing and financing activities.

Cash was generated by operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007. The primary source of cash from operations was net income. Cash dividends paid during both the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 amounted to $1.1 million.

The primary sources of investing activities are lending and mortgage-backed securities. Loans receivable amounted to $429.6 million and $439.1 million at March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively. Securities available for sale totaled $857,000 and $917,000 at March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively. Mortgage-backed securities held to maturity totaled $128.3 million and $123.9 million at March 31, 2008, and December 31, 2007, respectively. In addition to funding new loan production and mortgage-backed securities purchases through operating and financing activities such activities were funded by principal repayments on existing loans and mortgage-backed securities.

Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of business management. Excess liquidity is generally invested in short-term investments, such as federal funds and interest-bearing deposits. If the Bank requires funds beyond its ability to generate them internally, borrowing agreements exist with the FHLB which provide an additional source of funds. At March 31, 2008, advances from the FHLB amounted to $84.0 million.

The Bank anticipates that it will have sufficient funds available to meet its current loan commitments. At March 31, 2008, the Bank had outstanding commitments to originate loans of $11.9 million. Certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in one year or less at March 31, 2008, totaled $212.5 million. Management believes that, based upon its experience and the Bank’s deposit flow history, a significant portion of such deposits will remain with the Bank.

Under OTS regulations, three separate measurements of capital adequacy (the “Capital Rule”) are required. The Capital Rule requires each savings institution to maintain tangible capital equal to at least 1.5% and core capital equal to at least 4.0% of its adjusted total assets. The Capital Rule further requires each savings institution to maintain total capital equal to at least 8.0% of its risk-weighted assets.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Management of Interest Rate Risk. The ability to maximize net interest income is largely dependent upon the achievement of a positive interest rate spread that can be sustained during fluctuations in prevailing interest rates. Interest rate sensitivity is a measure of the difference between amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities that either reprice or mature within a given period of time. The difference, or the interest rate repricing “gap”, provides an indication of the extent to which an institution’s interest rate spread will be affected by changes in interest rates. A gap is considered positive when the amount of interest-rate sensitive assets exceeds the amount of interest-rate sensitive liabilities, and is considered negative when the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities exceeds the amount of interest-rate sensitive assets. Generally, during a period of rising interest rates, a negative gap within shorter maturities would adversely affect net interest income, while a positive gap within shorter maturities would result in an increase in net interest income, and during a period of falling interest rates, a negative gap within shorter maturities would result in an increase in net interest income while a positive gap within shorter maturities would result in a decrease in net interest income.

Because the Bank’s interest-bearing liabilities that mature or reprice within short periods exceed its interest-earning assets with similar characteristics, material and prolonged increase in interest rates generally would adversely affect net interest income, while material and prolonged decreases in interest rates generally would have a positive effect on net interest income.

The Bank’s current investment strategy is to maintain an overall securities portfolio that provides a source of liquidity and that contributes to the Bank’s overall profitability and asset mix within given quality and maturity considerations established and maintained by the Bank’s Investment and Interest Rate Risk Committees. Securities classified as available for sale provide management with the flexibility to make adjustments to the portfolio given changes in the economic or interest rate environment, to fulfill unanticipated liquidity needs, or to take advantage of alternative investment opportunities.

Net Portfolio Value. The Bank’s interest rate sensitivity is monitored by management through the use of the OTS model that estimates the change in the Bank’s net portfolio value (“NPV”) over a range of interest rate scenarios. NPV is the present value of expected cash flows from assets, liabilities, and off-balance sheet contracts. The NPV ratio, under any interest rate scenario, is defined as the NPV in that scenario divided by the market value of assets in the same scenario. The OTS produces its analysis based upon data submitted on the Bank’s quarterly Thrift Financial Reports. The following table sets forth the Bank’s NPV as of December 31, 2007, the most recent date the Bank’s NPV was calculated by the OTS.

Certain shortcomings are inherent in the methodology used in the above interest rate risk measurements. Modeling changes in NPV require the making of certain assumptions that may or may not reflect the manner in which actual yields and costs respond to changes in market interest rates. In this regard, the NPV model presented assumes that the composition of the Bank’s interest sensitive assets and liabilities existing at the beginning of a period remains constant over the period being measured and also assumes that a particular change in interest rates is reflected uniformly across the yield curve regardless of the duration to maturity or repricing of specific assets and liabilities. Accordingly, although the NPV measurements and net interest income models provide an indication of the Bank’s 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 the Bank’s net interest income and will differ from actual results.
