UNITED STATES FORM 10-K PART I Item 1. Description of Business General Southern Missouri Bancorp, Inc. ("Company"), which changed its state of incorporation to Missouri on April 1,
1999, was originally incorporated in Delaware on December 30, 1993 for the purpose of becoming the holding company
for Southern Missouri Savings Bank upon completion of Southern Missouri Savings Bank's conversion from a state
chartered mutual savings and loan association to a state chartered stock savings bank. As part of the conversion in April
1994, the Company sold 1,803,201 shares of its common stock to the public. The Company's Common Stock is quoted
on the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations ("NASDAQ") National Market System under
the symbol "SMBC". Southern Missouri Savings Bank was originally chartered as a mutual Missouri savings and loan association
in 1887. On June 20, 1995, it converted to a federally chartered stock savings bank and took the name Southern
Missouri Savings Bank, FSB. On February 17, 1998, Southern Missouri Savings Bank converted from a federally
chartered stock savings bank to a Missouri chartered stock savings bank and changed its name to Southern Missouri
Bank & Trust Co. On June 4, 2004, Southern Missouri Bank & Trust Co. ("Bank") converted from a Missouri chartered
stock savings bank to a Missouri state chartered trust company with banking powers ("Charter Conversion"). The primary regulator of the Bank is the Missouri Division of Finance. The Bank's deposits continue to be
insured up to applicable limits by the Deposit Insurance Fund ("DIF") of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
("FDIC"). With the Bank's conversion to a trust company with banking powers, the Company became a bank holding
company regulated by the Federal Reserve Board ("FRB"). The principal business of the Bank consists primarily of attracting retail deposits from the general public and
using such deposits along with wholesale funding from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines ("FHLB"), and
to a lesser extent, brokered deposits, to invest in one- to four-family residential mortgage loans, mortgage loans secured
by commercial real estate, commercial non-mortgage business loans and consumer loans. These funds are also used
to purchase mortgage-backed and related securities ("MBS"), U.S. Government Agency obligations and other
permissible investments. At June 30, 2007, the Company had total assets of $379.9 million, total deposits of $270.1 million and
stockholders' equity of $28.7 million. The Company has not engaged in any significant activity other than holding the
stock of the Bank. Accordingly, the information set forth in this report, including financial statements and related data,
relates primarily to the Bank. The Company's revenues are derived principally from interest earned on loans, investment
securities, MBS, CMO's and, to a lesser extent, banking service charges, loan late charges, increases in the cash
surrender value of bank owned life insurance and other fee income. Forward Looking Statements This document, including information incorporated by reference, contains forward-looking statements about

Market Area
The Bank provides its customers with a full array of community banking services and conducts its business
from its headquarters in Poplar Bluff and seven additional full service offices located in Poplar Bluff, Van Buren,
Dexter, Kennett, Doniphan, Sikeston, and Qulin, Missouri. The Bank's primary market area includes all or portions of
Butler, Carter, Dunklin, Ripley, Stoddard, Scott, Mississippi, New Madrid, Wayne, and Pemiscot Counties in Missouri,
and Mississippi and Clay Counties in Arkansas. The Bank's market area has a population of approximately 200,000.
The largest employers in the Bank's primary market area are the Poplar Bluff Regional Medical Center, employing
approximately 1,300 persons, and Briggs & Stratton, a small engine manufacturing facility employing approximately
1,200 persons. Other major employers include Noranda Aluminum, Visiting Nurse Association, Good Humor-Breyers,
Gates Rubber, John Pershing VA Hospital, Nordyne, the Poplar Bluff School District, the Missouri Delta Medical
Center, Wal-Mart Stores, Emerson Electric, Tyson Foods, and ArvinMeritor. The Bank's market area is primarily rural in nature and relies heavily on the manufacturing industries and agriculture, with products including livestock, rice,
timber, soybeans, wheat, melons, corn and cotton. Competition The Bank faces strong competition in attracting deposits (its primary source of lendable funds) and originating
loans. The Bank is one of 27 financial institution groups located in its primary market area. Competitors for deposits
include commercial banks, credit unions, money market funds, and other investment alternatives, such as mutual funds,
full service and discount broker-dealers, equity markets, brokerage accounts and government securities. The Bank's
competition for loans comes principally from other financial institutions, mortgage banking companies, mortgage
brokers and life insurance companies. The Bank expects competition to continue to increase in the future as a result
of legislative, regulatory and technological changes within the financial services industry. Technological advances, for
example, have lowered barriers to market entry, allowed banks to expand their geographic reach by providing services
over the Internet and made it possible for non-depository institutions to offer products and services that traditionally
have been provided by banks. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, which permits affiliation among banks, securities firms
and insurance companies, also has changed the competitive environment in which the Bank conducts business. Internet Website Bancorp maintains a website at www.smbtonline.com. The information contained on that website is not

The Bank's lending activities consist of origination of loans secured by mortgages on one- to four-family residences and commercial real estate, construction loans on residential and commercial properties, commercial
business loans and consumer loans. The Bank has also occasionally purchased loan participation interests originated
by other lenders and secured by properties generally located in the State of Missouri. Supervision of the loan portfolio is the responsibility of William D. Hribovsek, Chief Lending Officer. Loan
officers have varying amounts of lending authority depending upon experience and types of loans. Loans beyond their
authority are presented to the Loan Officers Committee, comprised of President Greg Steffens and Chief Lending
Officer William D. Hribovsek, along with various appointed loan officers. Loans to one borrower (or group of related
borrowers), in aggregate, in excess of $750,000 require the approval of a majority of the Discount Committee, which
consists of all Bank directors, prior to the closing of the loan. All loans are subject to ratification by the full Board of
Directors. The aggregate amount of loans that the Bank is permitted to make under applicable federal regulations to any
one borrower, including related entities, or the aggregate amount that the Bank could have invested in any one real estate
project, is based on the Bank's capital levels. See "Regulation - Loans to One Borrower." At June 30, 2007, the
maximum amount which the Bank could lend to any one borrower and the borrower's related entities was approximately
$8.6 million. At June 30, 2007, the Bank's five largest extensions of credit to one entity ranged from $8.2 million to
$7.6 million, net of participation interests sold. The majority of these credits were commercial or commercial real estate
loans and all of them were performing according to their terms. Loan Portfolio Analysis. The following table sets forth the composition of the Bank's loan portfolio by type

One- to Four-Family Residential Mortgage Lending. The Bank actively originates loans for the acquisition or refinance of one- to four-family residences. These loans are originated as a result of customer and real estate agent referrals, existing and walk-in customers and from responses to the Bank's marketing campaigns. At June 30, 2007, net mortgage loans secured by one- to four-family residences totaled $129.9 million, or 41.6% of net loans receivable.
The Bank currently offers both fixed-rate and adjustable-rate mortgage ("ARM") loans. During the year ended June 30, 2007, the Bank originated $6.8 million of ARM loans and $20.1 million of fixed-rate loans that were secured by one- to four-family residences. Substantially all of the one- to four-family residential mortgage originations in the Bank's portfolio are located within the Bank's primary market area.
The Bank generally originates one- to four-family residential mortgage loans in amounts up to 90% of the lower of the purchase price or appraised value of residential property. For loans originated in excess of 80%, the Bank charges an additional 37.5 basis points, but does not require private mortgage insurance. The majority of new residential mortgage loans originated by the Bank conform to secondary market standards. The interest rates charged on these loans are competitively priced based on local market conditions, the availability of funding, and anticipated profit margins. Fixed and ARM loans originated by the Bank are amortized over periods as long as 30 years, but typically are repaid over shorter periods.
Fixed-rate loans secured by one- to four-family residences have contractual maturities up to 30 years, and are
generally fully amortizing with payments due monthly. These loans normally remain outstanding for a substantially
shorter period of time because of refinancing and other prepayments. A significant change in the interest rate
environment can alter the average life of a residential loan portfolio. The one- to four-family fixed-rate loans do not contain prepayment penalties. Most are written using secondary market guidelines. At June 30, 2007, one- to four-family loans with a fixed rate totaled $92.9 million, and had a weighted-average maturity of 200 months. The Bank currently originates ARM loans, which adjust annually, after an initial period of one, three or five
years. Typically, originated ARM loans secured by owner occupied properties reprice at a margin of 2.75% to 3.00%
over the weekly average yield on United States Treasury securities adjusted to a constant maturity of one year ("CMT").
Generally, ARM loans secured by non-owner occupied residential properties reprice at a margin of 3.75% over the CMT
index. Current residential ARM loan originations are subject to annual and lifetime interest rate caps and floors. As
a consequence of using interest rate caps, discounted initial rates and a "CMT" loan index, the interest earned on the
Bank's ARMs will react differently to changing interest rates than the Bank's cost of funds. At June 30, 2007, loans
tied to the CMT index totaled $32.9 million. Until 1999, most of the owner occupied residential loans originated by the Bank repriced annually at a margin
of 2.50% or 2.75% over the 11th district cost of funds index or the Bank's internal cost of funds, while non-owner
occupied residential loans typically repriced at a margin of 3.00% to 3.75% over these same indices. The maximum
annual interest rate adjustment on these ARMs was typically limited to a 1.00% to 2.00% adjustment, while the
maximum lifetime adjustment was generally limited to 5.00% to 6.00%. Generally, each of these indices are considered
a "lagging" index because they adjust more slowly to changes in market interest rates than most other indices. At
June 30, 2007, loans tied to these indices totaled $4.3 million. In underwriting one- to four-family residential real estate loans, the Bank evaluates the borrower's ability to
meet debt service requirements at current as well as fully indexed rates for ARM loans, as well as the value of the
property securing the loan. During fiscal 2007, most properties securing real estate loans made by the Bank had
appraisals performed on them by independent fee appraisers approved and qualified by the Board of Directors. The
Bank generally requires borrowers to obtain title insurance and fire, property and flood insurance (if indicated) in an
amount not less than the amount of the loan. Real estate loans originated by the Bank generally contain a "due on sale"
clause allowing the Bank to declare the unpaid principal balance due and payable upon the sale of the security property. Commercial Real Estate Lending. The Bank actively originates loans secured by commercial real estate
including land (improved and unimproved), strip shopping centers, retail establishments and other businesses generally
located in the Bank's primary market area. At June 30, 2007, the Bank had $77.7 million in commercial real estate loans,
which represented 24.9% of net loans receivable. Commercial real estate loans originated by the Bank generally are based on amortization schedules of up to
20 years with monthly principal and interest payments. Generally, the interest rate received on these loans is fixed for
a maturity for up to five years, with a balloon payment due at maturity. Alternatively, for some loans, the interest rate
adjusts at least annually after an initial period up to five years, based upon the Wall Street prime rate or the one year
CMT. The Banks fixed-rate commercial real estate portfolio has a weighted average maturity of 31 months. Variable
rate commercial real estate originations typically adjust monthly, quarterly or annually based on the Wall Street prime
rate. Generally, improved commercial real estate loan amounts do not exceed 80% of the lower of the appraised value
or the purchase price of the secured property. Before credit is extended, the Bank analyzes the financial condition of
the borrower, the borrower's credit history, and the reliability and predictability of the cash flow generated by the
property and the value of the property itself. Generally, personal guaranties are obtained from the borrower in addition
to obtaining the secured property as collateral for such loans. The Bank also generally requires appraisals on properties
securing commercial real estate to be performed by a Board-approved independent certified fee appraiser. Generally, loans secured by commercial real estate involve a greater degree of credit risk than one- to four-family residential mortgage loans. These loans typically involve large balances to single borrowers or groups of related
borrowers. Because payments on loans secured by commercial real estate are often dependent on the successful
operation or management of the secured property, repayment of such loans may be subject to adverse conditions in the
real estate market or the economy. See "Asset Quality." Construction Lending. The Bank originates real estate loans secured by property or land that is under construction or development. At June 30, 2007, the Bank had $8.0 million, or 2.6% of net loans receivable in construction loans outstanding. Construction loans originated by the Bank are generally secured by permanent mortgage loans for the
construction of owner occupied residential real estate or to finance speculative construction secured by residential real
estate, land development or owner-operated commercial real estate. At June 30, 2007, the Bank had $8.0 million in
construction loans, $5.6 million of which were secured by one- to four-family residential real estate (of which $1.8
million was for speculative construction), $1.6 million of which were secured by commercial real estate and $805,000
of which were secured by multi-family real estate. During construction, these loans typically require monthly interest-only payments and have maturities ranging from 6 to 12 months. Once construction is completed, permanent
construction loans are converted to monthly payments using amortization schedules of up to 30 years on residential and
up to 20 years on commercial real estate. Speculative construction and land development lending generally affords the Bank an opportunity to receive
higher interest rates and fees with shorter terms to maturity than those obtainable from residential lending. Nevertheless,
construction and land development lending is generally considered to involve a higher level of credit risk than one- to
four-family residential lending due to (i) the concentration of principal among relatively few borrowers and development
projects, (ii) the increased difficulty at the time the loan is made of accurately estimating building or development costs
and the selling price of the finished product, (iii) the increased difficulty and costs of monitoring and disbursing funds
for the loan, (iv) the higher degree of sensitivity to increases in market rates of interest and changes in local economic
conditions, and (v) the increased difficulty of working out problem loans. Due in part to these risk factors, the Bank
may be required from time to time to modify or extend the terms of some of these types of loans. In an effort to reduce
these risks, the application process includes a submission to the Bank of accurate plans, specifications and costs of the
project to be constructed. These items are also used as a basis to determine the appraised value of the subject property.
Loan amounts are limited to 85% of the lesser of current appraised value and/or the cost of construction. Consumer Lending. The Bank offers a variety of secured consumer loans, including home equity, direct and
indirect automobile loans, second mortgages, mobile homes and loans secured by deposits. The Bank originates
substantially all of its consumer loans in its primary market area. Usually, consumer loans are originated with fixed rates
for terms of up to five years, with the exception of home equity lines of credit, which are variable, tied to the prime rate
of interest and are for a period of ten years. At June 30, 2007, the Bank's consumer loan portfolio totaled $19.4 million,
or 6.2% of net loans receivable. Home equity loans represented 33.7% of the Bank's consumer loan portfolio at June 30, 2007, and totaled $6.5
million, or 2.1% of net loans receivable. Home equity lines of credit are secured with a deed of trust and are issued up to 100% of the appraised or
assessed value of the property securing the line of credit, less the outstanding balance on the first mortgage. Interest rates
on the home equity lines of credit are adjustable and are tied to the current prime interest rate. This rate is obtained from
the Wall Street Journal and adjusts on a daily basis. Interest rates are based upon the loan-to-value ratio of the property
with better rates given to borrowers with more equity. Home equity lines of credit, which are secured by residential
properties, are secured by stronger collateral than automobile loans and because of the adjustable rate structure, contain
less interest rate risk to the Bank. Lending up to 100% of the value of the property presents greater credit risk to the
Bank. Consequently, the Bank limits this product to customers with a favorable credit history. Automobile loans represented 48.7% of the Bank's consumer loan portfolio at June 30, 2007, and totaled $9.5
million, or 3.0% of net loans receivable. Of that total, $1.1 million represented loans originated by auto dealers. These
loans generally pay a negotiated fee back to the dealer. Typically, automobile loans are made for terms of up to 60
months for new and used vehicles. Loans secured by automobiles have fixed rates and are generally made in amounts
up to 100% of the purchase price of the vehicle. Consumer loan terms vary according to the type and value of collateral, length of contract and creditworthiness
of the borrower. The underwriting standards employed for consumer loans include employment stability, an application,
a determination of the applicant's payment history on other debts, and an assessment of ability to meet existing and
proposed obligations. Although creditworthiness of the applicant is a primary consideration, the underwriting process
also includes a comparison of the value of the security, if any, in relation to the proposed loan amount. Consumer loans may entail greater credit risk than do residential mortgage loans, because they are generally unsecured or are
secured by rapidly depreciable or mobile assets, such as automobiles or mobile homes. In the event of repossession or
default, there may be no secondary source of repayment or the underlying value of the collateral could be insufficient
to repay the loan. In addition, consumer loan collections are dependent on the borrower's continuing financial stability,
and thus are more likely to be affected by adverse personal circumstances. Furthermore, the application of various
federal and state laws, including bankruptcy and insolvency laws, may limit the amount which can be recovered on such
loans. The Bank's delinquency levels for these types of loans are reflective of these risks. See "Asset Classification." Commercial Business Lending. At June 30, 2007, the Bank also had $76.1 million in commercial business
loans outstanding, or 24.4% of net loans receivable. The Bank's commercial business lending activities encompass loans
with a variety of purposes and security, including loans to finance accounts receivable, inventory, equipment and
operating lines of credit. The Bank currently offers both fixed and adjustable rate commercial business loans. At year end, the Bank
had $40.2 million in fixed rate and $35.9 million of adjustable rate commercial business loans. The adjustable rate
business loans can reprice daily, monthly or annually, in accordance with the Wall Street prime rate of interest. The
Bank expects to continue to maintain or increase the current percentage of commercial business loans in its total loan
portfolio. Commercial business loan terms vary according to the type and value of collateral, length of contract and
creditworthiness of the borrower. Generally, commercial loans secured by fixed assets are amortized over periods up
to five years, while commercial operating lines of credit are generally for a one year period. The Bank's commercial
business loans are evaluated based on the loan application, a determination of the applicant's payment history on other
debts, business stability and an assessment of ability to meet existing obligations and payments on the proposed loan.
Although creditworthiness of the applicant is a primary consideration, the underwriting process also includes a
comparison of the value of the security, if any, in relation to the proposed loan amount. Unlike residential mortgage loans, which generally are made on the basis of the borrower's ability to make
repayment from his or her employment and other income, and which are secured by real property whose value tends to
be more easily ascertainable, commercial business loans are of higher risk and typically are made on the basis of the
borrower's ability to make repayment from the cash flow of the borrower's business. As a result, the availability of funds
for the repayment of commercial business loans may be substantially dependent on the success of the business itself.
Further, the collateral securing the loans may depreciate over time, may be difficult to appraise and may fluctuate in
value based on the success of the business. Contractual Obligations and Commitments, Including Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. The following
table discloses our fixed and determinable contractual obligations and commercial commitments by payment date as of
June 30, 2007. Commitments to extend credit totaled $36.7 million at June 30, 2007. Loan Maturity and Repricing
The following table sets forth certain information at June 30, 2007 regarding the dollar amount of loans
maturing or repricing in the Bank's portfolio based on their contractual terms to maturity or repricing, but does not
include scheduled payments or potential prepayments. Demand loans, loans having no stated schedule of repayments
and no stated maturity, and overdrafts are reported as due in one year or less. Mortgage loans that have adjustable rates
are shown as maturing at their next repricing date. Listed loan balances are shown before deductions for undisbursed
loan proceeds, unearned discounts, unearned income and allowance for loan losses. As of June 30, 2007, loans with a maturity date after June 30, 2008 with fixed interest rates totaled $165.6
million, and loans with a maturity date after June 30, 2008 with adjustable rates totaled $79.0 million. Loan Originations, Sales and Purchases Generally, all loans are originated by the Bank's staff, who are salaried loan officers. Loan applications are
taken and processed at each of the Bank's full-service locations. The Bank began offering secondary market loans to
customers during fiscal year 2002 which are also originated by the Bank's staff. While the Bank originates both adjustable-rate and fixed-rate loans, the ability to originate loans is dependent
upon the relative customer demand for loans in its market. In fiscal 2007, the Bank originated $130.9 million of loans, compared to $120.0 million and $110.3 million in fiscal 2006 and 2005, respectively. Of these loans, mortgage loan
originations were $77.8 million, $74.0 million and $61.0 million in fiscal 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. From time to time, the Bank has purchased loan participations consistent with its loan underwriting standards.
In fiscal 2007, the Bank purchased $14.2 million of new loans. At June 30, 2007, loan participations totaled $21.1
million, or 6.6% of net loans receivable. At June 30, 2007, all of these participations with the exception of one, totaling
$227,000, were performing in accordance to their respective terms. The Bank will evaluate purchasing additional loan
participations, based in part on local loan demand, liquidity, portfolio and leverage rate. The following table shows total loans originated, purchased, sold and repaid during the periods indicated.

Loan Commitments
The Bank issues commitments for one- to four-family residential mortgage loans, operating or working capital lines of credit. Such commitments may be oral or in writing with specified terms, conditions and at a specified rate of interest and stand by letters-of-credit. The Bank had outstanding net loan commitments of approximately $36.7 million at June 30, 2007. See Note 13 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Annual Report to Stockholders.
Loan Fees
In addition, to interest earned on loans, the Bank receives income from fees in connection with loan originations, loan modifications, late payments and for miscellaneous services related to its loans. Income from these activities varies from period to period depending upon the volume and type of loans made and competitive conditions.
Asset Quality
Delinquent Loans. Generally, when a borrower fails to make a required payment on mortgage or installment loans, the Bank begins the collection process by mailing a computer generated notice to the customer. If the delinquency is not cured promptly, the customer is contacted again by notice or telephone. After an account secured by real estate becomes over 60 days past due, the Bank will send a 30-day demand notice to the customer which, if not cured or unless satisfactory arrangements have been made, will lead to foreclosure. For consumer loans, the Missouri Right-To-Cure Statute is followed, which requires issuance of specifically worded notices at specific time intervals prior to repossession or further collection efforts.
The following table sets forth the Bank's loan delinquencies by type and by amount at June 30, 2007.

Non-Performing Assets. The table below sets forth the amounts and categories of non-performing assets in the Bank's loan portfolio. Loans are placed on non-accrual status when the collection of principal and/or interest become doubtful, and as a result, previously accrued interest income on the loan is removed from current income. The Bank has no reserves for uncollected interest and does not accrue interest on non-accrual loans. A loan may be transferred back to accrual status once a satisfactory repayment history has been restored. Foreclosed assets held for sale include assets acquired in settlement of loans and are shown net of reserves.
At June 30, 2007, the Bank had one loan on which interest was not being accrued, in accordance with SFAS No. 114 as amended by SFAS No. 118. The Bank would have recorded a nominal amount of interest income during the years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, and would have recorded interest income of $146,000 during the year ended June 30, 2005, on non-accrual loans, if these loans had been performing in accordance with their terms during such periods. Interest income recognized on non-accrual loans for the years ended June 30, 2007, 2006, and 2005, was considered nominal.
The following table sets forth information with respect to the Bank's non-performing assets as of the dates indicated. At the dates indicated, the Bank had no restructured loans within the meaning of SFAS 15.

Other Loans of Concern. In addition to the non-performing assets discussed above, there was also an aggregate of $1.1 million in loans (all were commercial real estate and commercial business lending relationships) with respect to which management has doubts as to the ability of the borrowers to continue to comply with present loan repayment terms, which may ultimately result in the classification of such assets.
Real Estate Owned. Real estate properties acquired through foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure are recorded at the lower of cost or fair value, less estimated disposition costs. If fair value at the date of foreclosure is lower than the balance of the related loan, the difference will be charged-off to the allowance for loan losses at the time of transfer. Management periodically updates real estate valuations and if the value declines, a specific provision for losses on such property is established by a charge to operations. At June 30, 2007, the Company's balance of real estate owned totaled $111,000 and included three residential properties.
Asset Classification. Applicable regulations require that each insured institution review and classify its assets on a regular basis. In addition, in connection with examinations of insured institutions, regulatory examiners have authority to identify problem assets and, if appropriate, require them to be classified. There are three classifications for problem assets: substandard, doubtful and loss. Substandard assets must have one or more defined weaknesses and are
characterized by the distinct possibility that the insured institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Doubtful assets have the weaknesses of substandard assets with the additional characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values questionable, and there is a high possibility of loss. An asset classified loss is considered uncollectible and of such little value that continuance as an asset of the institution is not warranted. When an insured institution classifies problem assets as loss, it charges off the balance of the assets. Assets, which do not currently expose the Bank to sufficient risk to warrant classification in one of the aforementioned categories but possess weaknesses, may be designated as special mention. The Bank's determination as to the classification of its assets and the amount of its valuation allowances is subject to review by the FDIC and the Missouri Division of Finance, which can order the establishment of additional loss allowances.
On the basis of management's review of the assets of the Company, at June 30, 2007, classified assets totaled $1.1 million, or 0.30% of total assets as compared $1.1 million, or 0.27% of total assets at June 30, 2006. Of the amount classified as of June 30, 2007, $1.1 million were substandard and $4,000 were doubtful. The largest classified commercial lending relationship at June 30, 2007 totaled $554,000 and was performing in accordance with its terms. In addition, the Bank had classified two other commercial lending relationships, which in the aggregate totaled $518,000. All three borrowing relationships were classified due to concerns over whether the borrowers were generating sufficient cash flow to repay the loans in accordance with their terms.
Allowance for Loan Losses. The Bank's allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses based on management's evaluation of the risk inherent in the loan portfolio and changes in the nature and volume of loan activity, including those loans which are being specifically monitored. Such evaluation, which includes a review of loans for which full collectibility may not be reasonably assured, considers among other matters, the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral, economic conditions, historical loan loss experience and other factors that warrant recognition in providing for an adequate provision for loan losses. These provisions for loan losses are charged against earnings in the year they are established. The Bank had an allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2007, of $2.5 million, which represented 1,712% of nonperforming assets as compared to an allowance of $2.1 million, which represented 765% of nonperforming assets at June 30, 2006. See "Item 3. Legal Proceedings" for a discussion of the fiscal 2005 impact on the Bank of allegedly fraudulent actions by a significant borrower.
Although management believes that it uses the best information available to determine the allowance, unforeseen market conditions could result in adjustments and net earnings could be significantly affected if circumstances differ substantially from assumptions used in making the final determination. Future additions to the allowance will likely be the result of periodic loan, property and collateral reviews and thus cannot be predicted with certainty in advance.
The following table sets forth an analysis of the Bank's allowance for loan losses for the periods indicated. Where specific loan loss reserves have been established, any difference between the loss reserve and the amount of loss realized has been charged or credited to current income.

Investment Activities
General. Under Missouri law, the Bank is permitted to invest in various types of liquid assets, including U.S. Government and State of Missouri obligations, securities of various federal agencies, certain certificates of deposit of insured banks and savings institutions, banker's acceptances, repurchase agreements, federal funds, commercial paper, investment grade corporate debt securities and obligations of States and their political sub-divisions. Generally, the investment policy of the Company is to invest funds among various categories of investments and repricing characteristics based upon the Bank's need for liquidity, to provide collateral for borrowings and public unit deposits, to help reach financial performance targets and to help maintain asset/liability management objectives.
The Company's investment portfolio is managed in accordance with the Bank's investment policy which was adopted by the Board of Directors of the Bank and is implemented by members of the asset/liability management committee which consists of the President, the CFO, the COO and three outside directors.
Investment purchases and/or sales must be authorized by the appropriate party, depending on the aggregate size of the investment transaction, prior to any investment transaction. The Board of Directors reviews all investment transactions. All investment purchases are identified as available-for-sale ("AFS") at the time of purchase. The Company has not classified any investment securities as hold-to-maturity over the last five years. Securities classified as "AFS" must be reported at fair value with unrealized gains and losses recorded as a separate component of stockholders' equity. At June 30, 2007, AFS securities totaled $34.9 million (excluding FHLB stock). For information regarding the amortized cost and market values of the Company's investments, see Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Annual Report.
Presently, the Company has no high risk derivative instruments and no outstanding hedging activities. Management has no current plans to purchase derivative instruments or enter into hedging activities.
Investment and Other Securities. At June 30, 2007, the Company's investment securities portfolio totaled $27.2 million, or 7.2% of total assets as compared to $26.6 million, or 7.6% of total assets at June 30, 2006. During 2007, the Bank had $4.0 million in maturities and $4.3 million in security purchases. Of the securities that matured, $1.0 million was called for early redemption. At June 30, 2007, the investment securities portfolio included $21.5 million in U.S. government and government agency bonds and $2.0 million in municipal bonds, $21.7 million of which are subject to early redemption at the option of the issuer. The remaining portfolio consists of $3.1 million in FHLB stock, and $656,000 in other securities. Based on the projected maturities, the weighted average life of the investment securities portfolio at June 30, 2007, excluding the FHLB stock, was 31 months.
Mortgage-Backed Securities. At June 30, 2007, MBS totaled $10.7 million, or 2.8%, of total assets as compared to $14.4 million, or 4.1%, of total assets at June 30, 2006. During fiscal 2007, the Bank had maturities and prepayments of $4.9 million and had purchases of $1.0 million in MBS. At June 30, 2007, the MBS portfolio included $397,000 in adjustable-rate MBS, $5.1 million in fixed-rate MBS and $5.2 million in fixed rate collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs), which passed the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council's sensitivity test. Based on recent prepayment rates, the weighted average life of the MBS and CMOs at June 30, 2007 was 37 months. Prepayment rates may cause the anticipated average life of MBS portfolio to extend or shorten based upon actual prepayment rates.

Deposit Activities and Other Sources of Funds
General. The Company's primary sources of funds are deposits, borrowings, payments of principal and interest on loans, MBS and CMOs, interest and principal received on investment securities and other short-term investments, and funds provided from operating results. Loan repayments are a relatively stable source of funds, while deposit inflows and outflows and loan prepayments are significantly influenced by general market interest rates and overall economic conditions.
Borrowings, including FHLB advances, have been used at times to provide additional liquidity. Borrowings are used on an overnight or short-term basis to compensate for periodic fluctuations in cash flows, and are used on a longer term basis to fund loan growth and to help manage the Company's sensitivity to fluctuating interest rates.
Deposits. Substantially all of the Bank's depositors are residents of the State of Missouri or Northeast Arkansas. Deposits are attracted from within the Bank's market area through the offering of a broad selection of deposit instruments, including checking accounts, negotiable order of withdrawal ("NOW") accounts, money market deposit accounts, saving accounts, certificates of deposit and retirement savings plans. Deposit account terms vary according to the minimum balance required, the time periods the funds may remain on deposit and the interest rate, among other factors. In determining the terms of its deposit accounts, the Bank considers current market interest rates, profitability to the Bank, managing interest rate sensitivity and its customer preferences and concerns. The Bank's Asset/Liability Committee regularly reviews its deposit mix and pricing.
The Bank will periodically promote a particular deposit product as part of the Bank's overall marketing plan. Deposit products have been promoted through various mediums, which include radio and newspaper advertisements. The emphasis of these campaigns is to increase consumer awareness and market share of the Bank.
The flow of deposits is influenced significantly by general economic conditions, changes in prevailing interest rates, and competition. The Bank has become more susceptible to short-term fluctuations in deposit flows, as customers have become more interest rate conscious. Based on its experience, the Bank believes that its deposits are relatively stable sources of funds. However, the ability of the Bank to attract and maintain certificates of deposit, and the rates paid on these deposits, has been and will continue to be significantly affected by market conditions.

In the unlikely event the Bank is liquidated, depositors will be entitled to payment of their deposit accounts prior to any payment being made to the Company as the sole stockholder of the Bank.
Borrowings. As a member of the FHLB of Des Moines, the Bank has the ability to apply for FHLB advances. These advances are available under various credit programs, each of which has its own maturity, interest rate and repricing characteristics. Additionally, FHLB advances have prepayment penalties as well as limitations on size or term. In order to utilize FHLB advances, the Bank must be a member of the FHLB system, have sufficient collateral to secure the requested advance and own stock in the FHLB equal to 4.45% of the amount borrowed. See "REGULATION - The Bank -- Federal Home Loan Bank System."
Although deposits are the Bank's primary and preferred source of funds, the Bank actively uses FHLB advances. The Bank's general policy has been to utilize borrowings to meet short-term liquidity needs, or to provide a longer-term source of funding loan growth when other cheaper funding sources are unavailable or to aide in asset/liability management. As of June 30, 2007, the Bank had $54.0 million in FHLB advances, of which $44.0 million had an original term of ten years, subject to early redemption by the FHLB after an initial period of one to five years, $3.0 million in borrowings, all of which had fixed rates and original maturities of five to six years, and $7.0 million in short-term borrowings. In order for the Bank to borrow from the FHLB, it has pledged $121.7 million of its residential loans to the FHLB and has purchased $3.1 million in FHLB stock. At June 30, 2007, the Bank had additional borrowing capacity on its pledged residential loans from the FHLB of $42.4 million as compared to $51.2 million at June 30, 2006.
Southern Missouri Statutory Trust I, a Delaware business trust subsidiary of the Company, issued $7.0 million in Floating Rate Capital Securities (the "Trust Preferred Securities") with a liquidation value of $1,000 per share in March, 2004. The securities are due in 30 years, redeemable after five years and bear interest at a floating rate based on LIBOR. The securities represent undivided beneficial interests in the trust, which was established by Southern Missouri Bancorp for the purpose of issuing the securities. The Trust Preferred Securities were sold in a private transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act") and have not been registered under the Act. The securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements.
Southern Missouri Statutory Trust I used the proceeds of the sale of the Trust Preferred Securities to purchase Junior Subordinated Debentures of Southern Missouri Bancorp. Southern Missouri Bancorp is using the net proceeds for working capital and investment in its subsidiaries. Trust Preferred Securities qualify as Tier I Capital for regulatory purposes.

Subsidiary Activities
The Bank has one subsidiary, SMS Financial Services, Inc., which had no assets or liabilities at June 30, 2007 and is currently inactive. The activities of the subsidiary are not significant to the financial condition or results of the Bank's operations.
The Bank
General. As a state-chartered, federally-insured trust company with banking powers, the Bank is subject to extensive regulation. Lending activities and other investments must comply with various statutory and regulatory requirements, including prescribed minimum capital standards. The Bank is regularly examined by the FDIC and the Missouri Division of Finance and files periodic reports concerning the Bank's activities and financial condition with its regulators. The Bank's relationship with depositors and borrowers also is regulated to a great extent by both federal law and the laws of Missouri, especially in such matters as the ownership of savings accounts and the form and content of mortgage documents.
Federal and state banking laws and regulations govern all areas of the operation of the Bank, including reserves, loans, mortgages, capital, issuance of securities, payment of dividends and establishment of branches. Federal and state bank regulatory agencies also have the general authority to limit the dividends paid by insured banks and bank holding companies if such payments should be deemed to constitute an unsafe and unsound practice. The respective primary federal regulators of the Company and the Bank have authority to impose penalties, initiate civil and administrative actions and take other steps intended to prevent banks from engaging in unsafe or unsound practices.
State Regulation and Supervision. As a state-chartered trust company with banking powers, the Bank is subject to applicable provisions of Missouri law and the regulations of the Missouri Division of Finance adopted thereunder. Missouri law and regulations govern the Bank's ability to take deposits and pay interest thereon, to make loans on or invest in residential and other real estate, to make consumer loans, to invest in securities, to offer various banking services to its customers, and to establish branch offices. The Bank is subject to periodic examination and reporting requirements by and of the Missouri Division of Finance.
Federal Securities Law. The stock of the Company is registered with the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). As such, the Company is subject to the information, proxy solicitation, insider trading restrictions and other requirements of the SEC under the Exchange Act.
The Company's stock held by persons who are affiliates (generally officers, directors and principal stockholders) of the Company may not be resold without registration or unless sold in accordance with certain resale restrictions. If the Company meets specified current public information requirements, each affiliate of the Company is able to sell in the public market, without registration, a limited number of shares in any three-month period.
Federal Reserve System. The Federal Reserve Board ("FRB") requires all depository institutions to maintain non-interest bearing reserves at specified levels against their transaction accounts (checking, NOW and Super NOW checking accounts). At June 30, 2007, the Bank was in compliance with these reserve requirements.
The Bank is authorized to borrow from the Federal Reserve Bank "discount window," but FRB regulations require associations to exhaust other reasonable alternative sources of funds, including FHLB borrowings, before borrowing from the FRB.
Federal Home Loan Bank System. The Bank is a member of the FHLB of Des Moines, which is one of 12 regional FHLBs that administers the home financing credit function of financial institutions. Each FHLB serves as a reserve or central bank for its members within its assigned region. It is funded primarily from proceeds derived from the sale of consolidated obligations of the FHLB System. It makes loans to members (i.e., advances) in accordance with policies and procedures established by the board of directors of the FHLB, which are subject to the oversight of the Federal Housing Finance Board. All advances from the FHLB are required to be fully secured by sufficient collateral as determined by the FHLB. In addition, all long-term advances are required to provide funds for residential home financing. As a member, the Bank is required to purchase and maintain stock in the FHLB of Des Moines. At June 30, 2007, the Bank had $3.1 million in FHLB stock, which was in compliance with this requirement. The Bank is paid a quarterly dividend on this stock which averaged 4.25% in 2007.
Under federal law, the FHLBs are required to provide funds for the resolution of troubled savings associations and to contribute to low- and moderately priced housing programs through direct loans or interest subsidies on advances targeted for community investment and low- and moderate-income housing projects. These contributions have adversely affected the level of FHLB dividends paid and could continue to do so in the future. These contributions could also have an adverse effect on the value of FHLB stock in the future. A reduction in value of the Bank's FHLB stock may result in a corresponding reduction in the Bank's capital.
Deposit Insurance. The FDIC is an independent federal agency that insures the deposits, up to prescribed statutory limits, of depository institutions through the DIF. As insurer of the Bank's deposits, the FDIC has examination, supervisory and enforcement authority over the Bank.
The Bank's accounts are insured by the DIF to the maximum extent permitted by law. The Bank pays deposit insurance premiums based on a risk-based assessment system established by the FDIC. Under applicable regulations, institutions are assigned to one of three capital groups that are based solely on the level of an institution's capital -- "well capitalized," "adequately capitalized," and "undercapitalized" -- which are defined in the same manner as the regulations establishing the prompt corrective action system, as discussed below. These three groups are then divided into three subgroups, which reflect varying levels of supervisory concern, from those which are considered to be healthy to those which are considered to be of substantial supervisory concern.
Prior to the Federal Deposit Insurance Reform Act of 2005, the Bank participated in the Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF"). Pursuant to the Deposit Insurance Funds Act ("DIF Act"), which was enacted on September 30, 1996, the FDIC imposed a special assessment on each depository institution with SAIF-assessable deposits, which resulted in the SAIF achieving its designated reserve ratio. In connection therewith, the FDIC reduced the assessment schedule for SAIF members, effective January 1, 1997, to a range of 0% to 0.27%, with most institutions, including the Bank, paying 0%. This assessment schedule has been the same as that for the Bank Insurance Fund ("BIF"), which reached its designated reserve ratio in 1995. In addition, since January 1, 1997, DIF members are charged an assessment based on DIF-assessable deposits for the purpose of paying interest on the obligations issued by the Financing Corporation ("FICO") in the 1980s to help fund the thrift industry cleanup. The FICO assessment is currently equal to about 1.60 basis points for each $100 in domestic deposits for institutions that were insured through the BIF and SAIF.
Under the Federal Deposit Insurance Reform Act of 2005, the FDIC promulgated new regulations on risk-based deposit insurance assessments. The FDIC created four Risk Categories. Risk Category I applies to institutions that are well capitalized and have composite CAMELS ratings of 1 or 2. CAMELS is an acronym for the six supervisory ratings assigned in examinations for an institution's capital adequacy, asset quality, management, earnings, liquidity and sensitivity to market risk. Annual base rate assessments for Risk Category I will range between 2 and 4 basis points, applied to an institution's assessment base, which is generally its deposits. Within Risk Category I, the precise base rate for an institution will be determined for an institution with less than $10 billion in assets by a formula using the institution's CAMELS ratings, certain financial ratios and other factors. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation has stated that currently, 95% of institutions it insures will be in Risk Category I. Risk Categories II, III and IV would apply to institutions with progressively greater risk of loss to the deposit insurance fund. The proposed base rates for these categories will be 7, 25 and 40 basis points, respectively. The FDIC has authority to increase the base assessment rates by up to 3 basis points without new regulations.
Under the new regulations, the Bank has a one-time credit based on previous assessments. The Bank anticipates the credit will be exhausted in 2008 and will expense additional deposit insurance assessments beginning in 2009.
The FDIC may terminate the deposit insurance of any insured depository institution if it determines after a
hearing that the institution has engaged or is engaging in unsafe or unsound practices, is in an unsafe or unsound
condition to continue operations, or has violated any applicable law, regulation, order or any condition imposed by an
agreement with the FDIC. It also may suspend deposit insurance temporarily during the hearing process for the
permanent termination of insurance, if the institution has no tangible capital. If insurance of accounts is terminated, the accounts at the institution at the time of termination, less subsequent withdrawals, shall continue to be insured for a
period of six months to two years, as determined by the FDIC. Management is aware of no existing circumstances that
could result in termination of the deposit insurance of the Bank. Prompt Corrective Action. Under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act ("FDIA"), each federal banking agency
is required to implement a system of prompt corrective action for institutions that it regulates. The federal banking
agencies have promulgated substantially similar regulations to implement this system of prompt corrective action. Under
the regulations, an institution shall be deemed to be (i) "well capitalized" if it has a total risk-based capital ratio of 10.0%
or more, has a Tier I risk-based capital ratio of 6.0% or more, has a leverage ratio of 5.0% or more and is not subject
to specified requirements to meet and maintain a specific capital level for any capital measure; (ii) "adequately
capitalized" if it has a total risk-based capital ratio of 8.0% or more, has a Tier I risk-based capital ratio of 4.0% or more,
has a leverage ratio of 4.0% or more (3.0% under certain circumstances) and does not meet the definition of "well
capitalized;" (iii) "undercapitalized" if it has a total risk-based capital ratio that is less than 8.0%, has a Tier I risk-based
capital ratio that is less than 4.0% or has a leverage ratio that is less than 4.0% (3.0% under certain circumstances);
(iv) "significantly undercapitalized" if it has a total risk-based capital ratio that is less than 6.0%, has a Tier I risk-based
capital ratio that is less than 3.0% or has a leverage ratio that is less than 3.0%; and (v) "critically undercapitalized" if
it has a ratio of tangible equity to total assets that is equal to or less than 2.0%. A federal banking agency may, after notice and an opportunity for a hearing, reclassify a well capitalized
institution as adequately capitalized and may require an adequately capitalized institution or an undercapitalized
institution to comply with supervisory actions as if it were in the next lower category if the institution is in an unsafe
or unsound condition or has received in its most recent examination, and has not corrected, a less than satisfactory rating
for asset quality, management, earnings or liquidity. (The FDIC may not, however, reclassify a significantly
undercapitalized institution as critically undercapitalized.) An institution generally must file a written capital restoration plan that meets specified requirements, as well
as a performance guaranty by each company that controls the institution, with the appropriate federal banking agency
within 45 days of the date that the institution receives notice or is deemed to have notice that it is undercapitalized,
significantly undercapitalized or critically undercapitalized. Immediately upon becoming undercapitalized, an institution
shall become subject to various mandatory and discretionary restrictions on its operations. At June 30, 2007, the Bank was categorized as "well capitalized" under the prompt corrective action regulations
of the FDIC. Standards for Safety and Soundness. The federal banking regulatory agencies have prescribed, by regulation,
standards for all insured depository institutions relating to: (i) internal controls, information systems and internal audit
systems; (ii) loan documentation; (iii) credit underwriting; (iv) interest rate risk exposure; (v) asset growth; (vi) asset
quality; (vii) earnings; and (viii) compensation, fees and benefits ("Guidelines"). The Guidelines set forth the safety
and soundness standards that the federal banking agencies use to identify and address problems at insured depository
institutions before capital becomes impaired. If the FDIC determines that the Bank fails to meet any standard prescribed
by the Guidelines, the agency may require the Bank to submit to the agency an acceptable plan to achieve compliance
with the standard. FDIC regulations establish deadlines for the submission and review of such safety and soundness
compliance plans. Capital Requirements. The FDIC's minimum capital standards applicable to FDIC-regulated banks and
savings banks require the most highly-rated institutions to meet a "Tier 1" leverage capital ratio of at least 3% of total
assets. Tier 1 (or "core capital") consists of common stockholders' equity, noncumulative perpetual preferred stock and
minority interests in consolidated subsidiaries minus all intangible assets other than limited amounts of purchased
mortgage servicing rights and certain other accounting adjustments. All other banks must have a Tier 1 leverage ratio
of at least 100-200 basis points above the 3% minimum. The FDIC capital regulations establish a minimum leverage
ratio of not less than 4% for banks that are not the most highly rated or are anticipating or experiencing significant
growth. The FDIC's capital regulations require higher capital levels for banks which exhibit more than a moderate
degree of risk or exhibit other characteristics which necessitate that higher than minimum levels of capital be maintained. Any insured bank with a Tier 1 capital to total assets ratio of less than 2% is deemed to be operating in an unsafe and
unsound condition pursuant to Section 8(a) of the FDIA unless the insured bank enters into a written agreement, to
which the FDIC is a party, to correct its capital deficiency. Insured banks operating with Tier 1 capital levels below 2%
(and which have not entered into a written agreement) are subject to an insurance removal action. Insured banks
operating with lower than the prescribed minimum capital levels generally will not receive approval of applications
submitted to the FDIC. Also, inadequately capitalized state nonmember banks will be subject to such administrative
action as the FDIC deems necessary. FDIC regulations also require that banks meet a risk-based capital standard. The risk-based capital standard
requires the maintenance of total capital (which is defined as Tier 1 capital and Tier 2 or supplementary capital) to risk
weighted assets of 8% and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 4%. In determining the amount of risk-weighted
assets, all assets, plus certain off balance sheet items, are multiplied by a risk-weight of 0% to 100%, based on the risks
the FDIC believes are inherent in the type of asset or item. The components of Tier 1 capital are equivalent to those
discussed above under the 3% leverage requirement. The components of supplementary capital currently include
cumulative perpetual preferred stock, adjustable-rate perpetual preferred stock, mandatory convertible securities, term
subordinated debt, intermediate-term preferred stock and allowance for possible loan and lease losses. Allowance for
possible loan and lease losses includable in supplementary capital is limited to a maximum of 1.25% of risk-weighted
assets. Overall, the amount of capital counted toward supplementary capital cannot exceed 100% of Tier 1 capital. The
FDIC includes in its evaluation of a bank's capital adequacy an assessment of the exposure to declines in the economic
value of the bank's capital due to changes in interest rates. However, no measurement framework for assessing the level
of a bank's interest rate risk exposure has been codified. In the future, the FDIC will issue a proposed rule that would
establish an explicit minimum capital charge for interest rate risk, based on the level of a bank's measured interest rate
risk exposure. An undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized, or critically undercapitalized institution is required to
submit an acceptable capital restoration plan to its appropriate federal banking agency. The plan must specify (i) the
steps the institution will take to become adequately capitalized, (ii) the capital levels to be attained each year, (iii) how
the institution will comply with any regulatory sanctions then in effect against the institution and (iv) the types and levels
of activities in which the institution will engage. The banking agency may not accept a capital restoration plan unless
the agency determines, among other things, that the plan "is based on realistic assumptions, and is likely to succeed in
restoring the institution's capital" and "would not appreciably increase the risk...to which the institution is exposed." The FDIA provides that the appropriate federal regulatory agency must require an insured depository institution
that is significantly undercapitalized or is undercapitalized and either fails to submit an acceptable capital restoration
plan within the time period allowed or fails in any material respect to implement a capital restoration plan accepted by
the appropriate federal banking agency to take one or more of the following actions: (i) sell enough shares, including
voting shares, to become adequately capitalized; (ii) merge with (or be sold to) another institution (or holding company),
but only if grounds exist for appointing a conservator or receiver; (iii) restrict certain transactions with banking affiliates
as if the "sister bank" requirements of Section 23A of the Federal Reserve Act ("FRA") did not exist; (iv) otherwise
restrict transactions with bank or non-bank affiliates; (v) restrict interest rates that the institution pays on deposits to
"prevailing rates" in the institution's region; (vi) restrict asset growth or reduce total assets; (vii) alter, reduce or
terminate activities; (viii) hold a new election of directors; (ix) dismiss any director or senior executive officer who held
office for more than 180 days immediately before the institution became undercapitalized; (x) employ "qualified" senior
executive officers; (xi) cease accepting deposits from correspondent depository institutions; (xii) divest certain non-depository affiliates which pose a danger to the institution; (xiii) be divested by a parent holding company; and (xiv)
take any other action which the agency determines would better carry out the purposes of the Prompt Corrective Action
provisions. See "-- Prompt Corrective Action." The FDIC has adopted the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council's recommendation regarding
the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments
in Debt and Equity Securities." Specifically, the agencies determined that net unrealized holding gains or losses on
available for sale debt and equity securities should not be included when calculating core and risk-based capital ratios. FDIC capital requirements are designated as the minimum acceptable standards for banks whose overall
financial condition is fundamentally sound, which are well-managed and have no material or significant financial
weaknesses. The FDIC capital regulations state that, where the FDIC determines that the financial history or condition,
including off-balance sheet risk, managerial resources and/or the future earnings prospects of a bank are not adequate
and/or a bank has a significant volume of assets classified substandard, doubtful or loss or otherwise criticized, the
FDIC may determine that the minimum adequate amount of capital for that bank is greater than the minimum standards
established in the regulation. The Bank's management believes that, under the current regulations, the Bank will continue to meet its
minimum capital requirements in the foreseeable future. However, events beyond the control of the Bank, such as a
downturn in the economy in areas where the Bank has most of its loans, could adversely affect future earnings and,
consequently, the ability of the Bank to meet its capital requirements. For a discussion of the Bank's capital position relative to its FDIC Capital requirements at June 30, 2007, see
Note 12 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the annual report to stockholders included in Exhibit
13 and hereby incorporated by reference. Loans to One Borrower. As a result of the 10(1) Election made by the Bank in connection with the Charter
Conversion (see "Item 1. Description of Business - General,") the Bank remains subject to the loans to one borrower
regulations applicable to federal savings associations. Activities and Investments of Insured State-Chartered Banks. The FDIA generally limits the activities and
equity investments of FDIC-insured, state-chartered banks to those that are permissible for national banks. Under
regulations dealing with equity investments, an insured state bank generally may not directly or indirectly acquire or
retain any equity investment of a type, or in an amount, that is not permissible for a national bank. An insured state bank
is not prohibited from, among other things, (i) acquiring or retaining a majority interest in a subsidiary, (ii) investing
as a limited partner in a partnership the sole purpose of which is direct or indirect investment in the acquisition,
rehabilitation or new construction of a qualified housing project, provided that such limited partnership investments may
not exceed 2% of the bank's total assets, (iii) acquiring up to 10% of the voting stock of a company that solely provides
or reinsures directors', trustees' and officers' liability insurance coverage or bankers' blanket bond group insurance
coverage for insured depository institutions, and (iv) acquiring or retaining the voting shares of a depository institution
if certain requirements are met. Subject to certain regulatory exceptions, FDIC regulations provide that an insured state-chartered bank may
not, directly, or indirectly through a subsidiary, engage as "principal" in any activity that is not permissible for a national
bank unless the FDIC has determined that such activities would pose no risk to the insurance fund of which it is a
member and the bank is in compliance with applicable regulatory capital requirements. Any insured state-chartered bank
directly or indirectly engaged in any activity that is not permitted for a national bank or for which the FDIC has granted
and exception must cease the impermissible activity. Affiliate Transactions. The Company and the Bank are legal entities separate and distinct. Various legal
limitations restrict the Bank from lending or otherwise supplying funds to the Company (an "affiliate"), generally
limiting such transactions with the affiliate to 10% of the bank's capital and surplus and limiting all such transactions
to 20% of the bank's capital and surplus. Such transactions, including extensions of credit, sales of securities or assets
and provision of services, also must be on terms and conditions consistent with safe and sound banking practices,
including credit standards, that are substantially the same or at least as favorable to the bank as those prevailing at the
time for transactions with unaffiliated companies. Federally insured banks are subject, with certain exceptions, to certain restrictions on extensions of credit to
their parent holding companies or other affiliates, on investments in the stock or other securities of affiliates and on the
taking of such stock or securities as collateral from any borrower. In addition, such banks are prohibited from engaging
in certain tie-in arrangements in connection with any extension of credit or the providing of any property or service. Community Reinvestment Act. Banks are also subject to the provisions of the Community Reinvestment Act
of 1977 ("CRA"), which requires the appropriate federal bank regulatory agency, in connection with its regular
examination of a bank, to assess the bank's record in meeting the credit needs of the community serviced by the bank,
including low and moderate income neighborhoods. The regulatory agency's assessment of the bank's record is made
available to the public. Further, such assessment is required of any bank which has applied, among other things, to
establish a new branch office that will accept deposits, relocate an existing office or merge or consolidate with, or
acquire the assets or assume the liabilities of, a federally regulated financial institution. The Bank received a
"satisfactory" rating during its most recent CRA examination. Dividends. Dividends from the Bank constitute the major source of funds for dividends that may be paid by
the Company. The amount of dividends payable by the Bank to the Company depends upon the Bank's earnings and
capital position, and is limited by federal and state laws, regulations and policies. The amount of dividends actually paid during any one period will be strongly affected by the Bank's
management policy of maintaining a strong capital position. Federal law further provides that no insured depository
institution may make any capital distribution (which would include a cash dividend) if, after making the distribution,
the institution would be "undercapitalized," as defined in the prompt corrective action regulations. Moreover, the federal
bank regulatory agencies also have the general authority to limit the dividends paid by insured banks if such payments
should be deemed to constitute an unsafe and unsound practice. The Company The Company is a bank holding company that has elected to be treated as a financial holding company by the
FRB. Financial holding companies are subject to comprehensive regulation by the FRB under the Bank Holding
Company Act, and the regulations of the FRB. As a financial holding company, the Company is required to file reports
with the FRB and such additional information as the FRB may require, and is subject to regular examinations by the
FRB. The FRB also has extensive enforcement authority over financial holding companies, including, among other
things, the ability to assess civil money penalties, to issue cease and desist or removal orders and to require that a
holding company divest subsidiaries (including its bank subsidiaries). In general, enforcement actions may be initiated
for violations of law and regulations and unsafe or unsound practices. Under FRB policy, a financial holding company must serve as a source of strength for its subsidiary banks.
Under this policy the FRB may require, and has required in the past, that a holding company to contribute additional
capital to an undercapitalized subsidiary bank. Under the Bank Holding Company Act, a financial holding company must obtain FRB approval before: (i)
acquiring, directly or indirectly, ownership or control of any voting shares of another bank or bank holding company
if, after such acquisition, it would own or control more than 5% of such shares (unless it already owns or controls the
majority of such shares); (ii) acquiring all or substantially all of the assets of another bank or bank or financial holding
company; or (iii) merging or consolidating with another bank or financial holding company. The Bank Holding Company Act also prohibits a financial holding company generally from engaging directly
or indirectly in activities other than those involving banking, activities closely related to banking that are permitted for
a bank holding company, securities, insurance or merchant banking. TAXATION Federal Taxation General. The Company and the Bank report their income on a fiscal year basis using the accrual method of
accounting and are subject to federal income taxation in the same manner as other corporations with some exceptions,
including particularly the Bank's reserve for bad debts discussed below. The following discussion of tax matters is
intended only as a summary and does not purport to be a comprehensive description of the tax rules applicable to the
Bank or the Company. Bad Debt Reserve. Historically, savings institutions, such as the Bank used to be, which met certain
definitional tests primarily related to their assets and the nature of their business ("qualifying thrift"), were permitted
to establish a reserve for bad debts and to make annual additions thereto, which may have been deducted in arriving at
their taxable income. The Bank's deductions with respect to their loans, which are generally loans secured by certain
interests in real property, are computed using an amount based on the Bank's actual loss experience, in accordance with
IRS Section 585(B)(2). Due to the Bank's loss experience, the Bank generally recognized a bad debt deduction equal
to their net charge-offs. Distributions. To the extent that the Bank makes "nondividend distributions" to the Company, such
distributions will be considered to result in distributions from the balance of its bad debt reserve as of December 31,
1987 (or a lesser amount if the Bank's loan portfolio decreased since December 31, 1987) and then from the
supplemental reserve for losses on loans ("Excess Distributions"), and an amount based on the Excess Distributions will
be included in the Bank's taxable income. Nondividend distributions include distributions in excess of the Bank's
current and accumulated earnings and profits, distributions in redemption of stock and distributions in partial or
complete liquidation. However, dividends paid out of the Bank's current or accumulated earnings and profits, as
calculated for federal income tax purposes, will not be considered to result in a distribution from the Bank's bad debt
reserve. The amount of additional taxable income created from an Excess Distribution is an amount that, when reduced
by the tax attributable to the income, is equal to the amount of the distribution. Thus, if the Bank makes a "nondividend
distribution," then approximately one and one-half times the Excess Distribution would be includable in gross income
for federal income tax purposes, assuming a 34% corporate income tax rate (exclusive of state and local taxes). See
"REGULATION" for limits on the payment of dividends by the Bank. The Bank does not intend to pay dividends that
would result in a recapture of any portion of its tax bad debt reserve. Corporate Alternative Minimum Tax. The Internal Revenue Code imposes a tax on alternative minimum
taxable income ("AMTI") at a rate of 20%. In addition, only 90% of AMTI can be offset by net operating loss carry-overs. AMTI is increased by an amount equal to 75% of the amount by which the Bank's adjusted current earnings
exceeds its AMTI (determined without regard to this preference and prior to reduction for net operating losses). Dividends-Received Deduction. The Company may exclude from its income 100% of dividends received from
the Bank as a member of the same affiliated group of corporations. The corporate dividends-received deduction is
generally 70% in the case of dividends received from unaffiliated corporations with which the Company and the Bank
will not file a consolidated tax return, except that if the Company or the Bank owns more than 20% of the stock of a
corporation distributing a dividend, then 80% of any dividends received may be deducted. Missouri Taxation Missouri-based banks, such as the Bank, are subject to a Missouri bank franchise and income tax. The
Missouri bank franchise tax is based on the Bank's taxable income, however, it is reduced by its portion of the Missouri
income tax. The Missouri franchise tax is imposed on (i) the bank's taxable income at the rate of 7% of the taxable income
(determined without regard for any net operating losses), less credits for all other state or local taxes, including income
tax, however, the credits excludes taxes paid for real estate, unemployment taxes, bank tax, and taxes on tangible
personal property owned by the Bank and held for lease or rentals to others - income-based calculation; and (ii) the The Bank and its holding company and related subsidiaries are subject to an income tax that is imposed on the
consolidated taxable income at the rate of 6.25%. The return is filed on a consolidated basis by all members of the
consolidated group including the Bank. Audits There have been no IRS audits of the Company's Federal income tax returns or audits of the Bank's state
income tax returns during the past five years. For additional information regarding taxation, see Note 10 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
contained in the Annual Report. Personnel As of June 30, 2007, the Company had 88 full-time employees and 8 part-time employees. The Company
believes that employees play a vital role in the success of a service company and that the Company's relationship with
its employees is good. The employees are not represented by a collective bargaining unit. Item 1A. Risk Factors An investment in our common stock is subject to risks inherent in our business. Before making an investment
decision, you should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below together with all of the other
information included and incorporated by reference in this report. In addition to the risks and uncertainties described
below, other risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may
materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. The value or market price
of our common stock could decline due to any of these identified or other risks, and you could lose all or part of your
investment. Our allowance for loan losses may prove to be insufficient to absorb probable losses in our loan portfolio. Lending money is a substantial part of our business. Every loan carries a certain risk that it will not be repaid
in accordance with its terms or that any underlying collateral will not be sufficient to assure repayment. This risk is
affected by, among other things:
bank's assets at a rate of .033% of total assets less deposits and the investment in greater than 50% owned subsidiaries -
asset-based calculation.
We maintain an allowance for loan losses which we believe is appropriate to provide for potential losses in our loan portfolio. The amount of this allowance is determined by our management through a periodic review and consideration of several factors, including, but not limited to:
- an ongoing review of the quality, size and diversity of the loan portfolio;
- evaluation of non-performing loans;
- historical default and loss experience;
- historical recovery experience;
- existing economic conditions;
- risk characteristics of the various classifications of loans; and
- the amount and quality of collateral, including guarantees, securing the loans.
If our loan losses exceed our allowance for probable loan losses, our business, financial condition and profitability may suffer.
Rising interest rates may hurt our profits.
To be profitable we have to earn more interest on our loans and investments than we pay on our deposits and borrowings. If interest rates continue to rise, our net interest income and the value of our assets could be reduced if interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities, such as deposits and borrowings, increases more quickly than interest received on interest-earning assets, such as loans and investments. This is most likely to occur if short-term interest rates increase at a faster rate than long-term interest rates, which would cause income to go down. At June 30, 2007, $92.9 million, or 29.8%, of our loan portfolio consisted of fixed rate one- to four-family residential real estate loans. In addition, rising interest rates may hurt our income because they may reduce the demand for loans and the value of our securities. A flat yield curve may also hurt our income, because it would reduce our ability to reinvest proceeds from loan and investment repayments at higher rates. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" included in the Annual Report as Exhibit 13.
Non-compliance with USA Patriot Act, Bank Secrecy Act, or other laws and regulations could result in fines or sanctions.
The USA Patriot and Bank Secrecy Acts require financial institutions to develop programs to prevent financial institutions from being used for money laundering and terrorist activities. If such activities are detected, financial institutions are obligated to file suspicious activity reports with the U.S. Treasury Department's Office of Financial Crimes Enforcement Network. These rules require financial institutions to establish procedures for identifying and verifying the identity of customers seeking to open new financial accounts. Failure to comply with these regulations could result in fines or sanctions. During the last year, several banking institutions have received large fines for non-compliance with these laws and regulations. Although we have developed policies and procedures designed to assist in compliance with these laws and regulations, no assurance can be given that these policies and procedures will be effective in preventing violations of these laws and regulations.
New or changes in existing tax, accounting, and regulatory rules and interpretations could significantly impact strategic initiatives, results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition.
The financial services industry is extensively regulated. Federal and state banking regulations are designed primarily to protect the deposit insurance funds and consumers, not to benefit a financial company's shareholders. These regulations may sometimes impose significant limitations on operations. The significant federal and state banking regulations that affect us are described in this report under the heading "Item 1. Business-Supervision and Regulation." These regulations, along with the currently existing tax, accounting, securities, insurance, and monetary laws, regulations, rules, standards, policies, and interpretations control the methods by which financial institutions conduct business, implement strategic initiatives and tax compliance, and govern financial reporting and disclosures. These laws, regulations, rules, standards, policies, and interpretations are constantly evolving and may change significantly over time.
Significant legal actions could subject the Company to substantial liabilities.
The Company is from time to time subject to claims related to its operations. These claims and legal actions, including supervisory actions by the Company's regulators, could involve large monetary claims and significant defense costs. As a result, the Company may be exposed to substantial liabilities, which could adversely affect the Company's results of operations and financial condition.
Our future success is dependent on our ability to compete effectively in the highly competitive banking industry.
We face substantial competition in all phases of our operations from a variety of different competitors. Our future growth and success will depend on our ability to compete effectively in this highly competitive environment. To date, we have grown our business successfully by focusing on our business lines in geographic markets and emphasizing the high level of service and responsiveness desired by our customers. We compete for loans, deposits and other financial services with other commercial banks, thrifts, credit unions, brokerage houses, mutual funds, insurance companies and specialized finance companies. Many of our competitors offer products and services which we do not offer, and many have substantially greater resources and lending limits, name recognition and market presence that benefit them in attracting business. In addition, larger competitors may be able to price loans and deposits more aggressively than we do, and smaller newer competitors may also be more aggressive in terms of pricing loan and deposit products than we are in order to obtain a share of the market. Some of the financial institutions and financial services organizations with which we compete are not subject to the same degree of regulation as is imposed on bank holding companies, federally insured state-chartered banks and national banks and federal savings banks. As a result, these nonbank competitors have certain advantages over us in accessing funding and in providing various services.
We are subject to security and operational risks relating to our use of technology that could damage our reputation and our business.
Security breaches in our internet banking activities could expose us to possible liability and damage our reputation. Any compromise of our security also could deter customers from using our internet banking services that involve the transmission of confidential information. We rely on standard internet security systems to provide the security and authentication necessary to effect secure transmission of data. These precautions may not protect our systems from compromises or breaches of our security measures that could result in damage to our reputation and our business. Additionally, we outsource our data processing to a third party. If our third party provider encounters difficulties or if we have difficulty in communicating with such third party, it will significantly affect our ability to adequately process and account for customer transactions, which would significantly affect our business operations.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings
Except as set forth below, in the opinion of management, the Bank is not a party to any pending claims or lawsuits that are expected to have a material effect on the Bank's financial condition or operations. Periodically, there have been various claims and lawsuits involving the Bank mainly as a defendant, such as claims to enforce liens, condemnation proceedings on properties in which the Bank holds security interests, claims involving the making and servicing of real property loans and other issues incident to the Bank's business. Aside from such pending claims and lawsuits, which are incident to the conduct of the Bank's ordinary business, the Bank is not a party to any material pending legal proceedings that would have a material effect on the financial condition or operations of the Bank.
In April 2005, the Bank discovered there had been an adverse development with respect to a substandard loan that resulted from allegedly fraudulent activities on the part of the borrower. To date, we have liquidated all assets of the borrower of which we were able to take possession, and have incurred charge-offs of $4.7 million. Since June 30, 2006, the Bank no longer reports any amount of this loan relationship, or any collateral related thereto, as an asset.
In December 2006, the Bank and two other financial institutions settled their claims against the bonding company which insured the accounting firm had performed audits on said borrower in exchange for the payment by the bonding company of a total of $850,000. That amount will be distributed among the three financial institutions, including the Bank, according to the terms of an agreement that is yet to be reached among the financial institutions. The Company cannot predict to what extent a recovery will occur.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
An evaluation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act")) as of June 30, 2007, was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, who is also our Chief Financial Officer, and several other members of our senior management. Our Chief Executive Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as currently in effect are effective in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed in the reports the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) accumulated and communicated to our management (including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer) in a timely manner, and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Act) that occurred during the year ended June 30, 2007, that has materially effected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
We intend to continually review and evaluate the design and effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures and to improve the Company's controls and procedures over time and to correct any deficiencies that we may discover in the future. The goal is to ensure that senior management has timely access to all material financial and non-financial information concerning the Company's business. While we believe the present design of the disclosure controls and procedures is effective to achieve its goal, future events affecting its business may cause the Company to modify its disclosure controls and procedures.

> LETTER to SHAREHOLDERS <
In 2007, Southern Missouri Bancorp realized record net income and earnings per share, experienced strong loan and deposit growth, and positioned itself for even better results in the future. |
Despite a challenging interest rate environment, we expanded our core business and grew earnings.
We realized strong asset growth – our total loan portfolio grew by 11%, most of it in commercial and commercial real estate loans, meeting our strategic objectives of diversifying our loan portfolio. We achieved strong growth in retail and public unit deposits - up a combined 10% - and reduced |
higher-cost, brokered deposit balances from $13.5 million to less than $100,000.
We increased Book Value per share by 9%, to $13.01, and Tangible Book Value per share by 11%, to $12.06, reflecting the growth in our Company's value to shareholders. Diluted earnings per share were $1.29, a record, up from $1.24 in the previous fiscal year. Total earnings rose from $2,784,000 in 2006 to $2,928,000 in 2007, a 5% increase. |
Overcoming Challenges
While our earnings increased this year, they declined as a percentage of average assets and equity. This was due to a balance sheet that grew more quickly than earnings. To help improve these key measures, the Company completed its share repurchase plan and announced a new one in June 2007, and in the first quarter | of our liabilities have already repriced to current market rates. We saw evidence of this in the last two quarters of the fiscal year, when our CD portfolio repriced upwards by an average of just seven basis points, less than a fourth of the average 29 basis point increase over the previous six quarters. |
of fiscal 2008 announced an 11% increase in the quarterly dividend. Meanwhile, the Bank's capital levels remain strong.
As a result of an inverted yield curve for much of the year, the Company, like many in the industry, experienced interest rate spread contraction. |
Over the last five years, our deposits increased at a 7.5% compounded annual growth rate. Using the most recent data available, we can tell that overall deposits in our market area have grown 5.0%, by comparison. We've been able to grow faster than our market area by increasing |
We were able to overcome this contraction and increase net interest income by growing our interest-earning asset balances. We are optimistic that the worst of the margin contraction is behind us, as many | our market share, and we are poised to establish a leadership position. A key ingredient in this success is our formal program to expand relationships with our current customers and reach out to new ones. |
Deeper Roots for
Stronger
Growth
We took a number of steps that
we feel have prepared the Bank
for future growth:
> | We improved and diversified the Company's asset mix. Our commercial and commercial real estate portfolios grew by a combined 18%, or $23.3 million, including agricultural loan growth of 44%, or $7.6 million. These loans, while carrying specific additional risks, earn higher yields, and generally reprice at terms more favorable than the Bank's traditional residential real estate loans. |
> | We maintained strong asset quality. The Bank's percentage of loans past due 30 days or more, at 0.3%, compares favorably to peers. At the same time, the Company increased its Allowance for Loan Losses, as a percentage of net loans, to 0.81% at June 30, 2007, from 0.73% at June 30, 2006. The increase was in response to the changing portfolio components – which require additional allowances – and management recognition of the potential for challenges in the future. Traditionally, the Bank's loan portfolio has been more concentrated in residential real estate, and has required a relatively small loan loss allowance. |
> | Our Sikeston branch, opened in January 2006, achieved profitability in less than 18 months, ahead of projections. We continue to look at several acquisition opportunities each year and we will proceed cautiously, insisting that any acquisition be both affordable and capable of adding significant long-term value to the Company. In the meantime, our primary focus has moved to de novo branching, since this process is more completely under our control. |
> LETTER to SHAREHOLDERS <
Technology continues to enhance efficiency
By implementing a new, more efficient loan platform system, we eliminated repetitive data-entry, which reduced processing time |
the Bank electronically, without sending an employee to the Bank, or even requiring a teller to process the deposit. This has pushed the "business day" cut-off |
|||
and improved our employees' ability to serve our customers. Many paper files have been replaced by image files, allowing access to documents from both headquarters and the originating branch. We were among the first in the area to introduce our commercial depositors to remote deposit capture. We now offer them the option of submitting deposits to |
from 3:00 pm to 4:00 pm, improved the availability of funds for both the customers and the Bank, and reduced our courier costs. |
In Summary
This year marked Southern Missouri Bank's 120th year of operations.
For a company to persevere for such a long period of time it must provide a solid return to its shareholders. Market valuations fluctuate and share prices over shorter periods of time can be volatile, but we are optimistic that measures within our control - diluted earnings per share, Book Value per share - will continue to |
show the same positive, improving results.
I would note that every eligible Southern Missouri employee is also an owner through our employee stock ownership plan; their exemplary work here demonstrates the value they hold in the Company. I appreciate their efforts more than a mere letter can convey. Finally, we are also grateful to our customers for the opportunity to earn their business. |

> FINANCIAL REVIEW <
BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY AND THE BANK
Southern Missouri Bancorp, Inc. (Southern Missouri or Company) is a Missouri corporation and owns all of the outstanding stock of Southern Missouri Bank & Trust Co. (SMBT or the Bank). The Company's earnings are primarily dependent on the operations of the Bank. As a result, the following discussion relates primarily to the operations of the Bank. The Bank was originally chartered by the State of Missouri in 1887 and converted from a state-chartered stock savings and loan association to a Federally-chartered stock savings bank effective June 1995. Then, effective February 1998, the Bank converted its charter to a state-chartered stock savings bank. On June 4, 2004, the Bank converted to a state chartered trust company with banking powers. The Bank's deposit accounts are generally insured up to a maximum of $100,000 (some retirement accounts are insured up to $250,000) by the Deposit Insurance Fund (DIF), which is administered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). The Bank's primary business consists of attracting deposits from the communities it serves and investing those funds in permanent |
loans secured by one- to four-family residences, commercial real estate, commercial business and consumer loans. The Company's results of operations are primarily dependent on its net interest margin, which is the difference between the average yield on loans, mortgage-related securities and investments and the average rate paid on deposits, securities sold under agreements to repurchase and borrowings.
The net interest margin is affected by economic, regulatory and competitive factors that influence interest rates, loan demand and deposits. Lending activities are funded through the attraction of deposit accounts consisting of checking accounts, passbook accounts, money market deposit accounts, certificate of deposit accounts with terms of 60 months or less, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines, and to a lesser extent brokered deposits. The Bank currently conducts its business through its home office located in Poplar Bluff and eight full service branch facilities in Poplar Bluff (2), Van Buren, Dexter, Kennett, Doniphan, Sikeston and Qulin, Missouri. |

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
OVERVIEW
Southern Missouri Bancorp, Inc. is a Missouri corporation originally organized for the principal purpose of becoming the holding company of Southern Missouri Savings Bank. The Bank converted from a Federally-chartered stock savings bank to a state-chartered stock savings bank effective February 17, 1998, and subsequently changed its name to Southern Missouri Bank & Trust Co. The Company's state of incorporation changed from Delaware to Missouri effective April 1, 1999. On June 4, 2004, the Bank converted to a state chartered trust company with banking powers, and the Company became a bank holding company supervised by the Federal Reserve. The principal business of SMBT consists of attracting deposits from the general public and using such deposits along with wholesale funding from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines (FHLB) to finance mortgage loans secured by one- to four-family residences, commercial real estate loans and commercial business loans. These funds have also been used to purchase investment securities, mortgage-backed securities (MBS), U.S. government and federal agency obligations and other permissible securities. Southern Missouri's results of operations are primarily dependent on the levels of its net interest margin and noninterest income, and its ability to control operating expenses. Net interest margin is dependent primarily on the difference or spread between the average yield earned on interest-earning assets and the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities, as well as the relative amounts of these assets and liabilities. Southern Missouri is subject to interest rate risk to the degree that its interest-earning assets mature or reprice at different times, or on a varying basis, from its interest-bearing liabilities. Southern Missouri's noninterest income consists primarily of fees charged on transaction and loan accounts and increased cash surrender value of bank owned life insurance ("BOLI"). Southern Missouri's operating expenses include: employee compensation and benefits, occupancy expenses, legal and professional fees, federal deposit insurance premiums, amortization of intangible assets and other general and administrative expenses. Southern Missouri's operations are significantly influenced by general economic conditions including monetary and fiscal policies of the U.S. government and the Federal Reserve Board. Additionally, Southern Missouri is subject to policies and regulations issued by financial institution regulatory agencies, including the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Federal Reserve and the Missouri Division of Finance. Each of these factors may influence interest rates, loan demand, prepayment rates and deposit flows. Interest rates available on competing investments as well as general market interest rates influence the Bank's cost of funds. Lending activities are affected by the demand for financing real estate and other types of loans, which in turn is affected by the interest rates at which such financing may be offered. The Bank intends to continue to focus on its lending programs for one- to four-family residential real estate, commercial real estate, commercial business and consumer financing on loans sec ured by properties or collateral located primarily in Southeastern Missouri. FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS This document, including information incorporated by reference, contains forward-looking statements about the Company and its subsidiaries which we believe are within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements with respect to anticipated future operating and financial performance, growth |
opportunities, interest rates, cost savings and funding advantages expected or anticipated to be realized by management. Words such as "may," "could," "should," "would," "believe," "anticipate," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "plan" and similar expressions are intended to identify these forward looking statements. Forward-looking statements by the Company and its management are based on beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, expectations, anticipations, estimates and the intentions of management and are not guarantees of future performance. The important factors we discuss below, as well as other factors discussed under the caption "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and identified in our filings with the SEC and those presented elsewhere by our management from time to time, could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements made in this document:
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES The Company has established various accounting policies, which govern the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America in the preparation of our financial statements. Our significant accounting policies are described in the footnotes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Certain accounting policies involve significant judgments and assumptions by management that have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities; management considers such accounting policies to be critical accounting policies. The judgments and assumptions used by management are based on historical experience and other factors, which are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Because of the nature of the judgments and assumptions made by management, actual results could differ from these judgments and estimates that could have a material impact on the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the results of operations of the Company. The allowance for losses on loans represents management's best estimate of probable losses in the existing loan portfolio. The allowance for losses on loans is increased by the provision for losses on loans charged to expense and reduced by loans charged off, net of recoveries. |
> FINANCIAL REVIEW (continued) <
The provision for losses on loans is determined based on management's assessment of several factors: reviews and evaluations of specific loans, changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions and the related impact on specific borrowers and industry groups, historical loan loss experience, the level of classified and nonperforming loans and the results of regulatory examinations.
Integral to the methodology for determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is portfolio segmentation and impairment measurement. Under the Company's methodology, loans are first segmented into 1) those comprising large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans, including single-family mortgages and installment loans, which are collectively evaluated for impairment and 2) all other loans which are individually evaluated. Those loans in the second category are further segmented utilizing a defined grading system which involves categorizing loans by severity of risk based on conditions that may affect the ability of the borrowers to repay their debt, such as current financial information, collateral valuations, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current trends. The loans subject to credit classification represent the portion of the portfolio subject to the greatest credit risk and where adjustments to the allowance for losses on loans as a result of pro visions and charge-offs are most likely to have a significant impact on operations. A periodic review of selected credits (based on loan size and type) is conducted to identify loans with heightened risk or probable losses and to assign risk grades. The primary responsibility for this review rests with the loan administration personnel. This review is supplemented with periodic examinations of both selected credits and the credit review process by applicable regulatory agencies. The information from these reviews assists management in the timely identification of problems and potential problems and provides a basis for deciding whether the credit represents a probable loss or risk that should be recognized. Loans are considered impaired if, based on current information and events, it is probable that Southern Missouri will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The measurement of impaired loans is generally based on the fair value of the collateral for collateral-dependent loans. If the loan is not collateral-dependent, the measurement of impairment is based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the historical effective interest rate or the observable market price of the loan. In measuring the fair value of the collateral, management uses the assumptions (i.e., discount rates) and methodologies (i.e., comparison to the recent selling price of similar assets) consistent with those that would be utilized by unrelated third parties. Impairment identified through this evaluation process is a component of the allowance for loan losses. If a loan that is individually evaluated for impairment is found to have none, it is grouped together with loans having similar characteristics (i.e., the same risk grade), and an allowance for loan losses is based upon historical average charge-offs for similar loans over the past five years, the historical average charge-off rate for developing trends in the economy, in industries and other factors. For portfolio loans that are evaluated for impairment as part of homogenous pools, an allowance is maintained based upon the average charge-offs for the past five years. Changes in the financial condition of individual borrowers, in economic conditions, in historical loss experience and in the conditions of the various markets in which collateral may be sold may all affect the required level of the allowance for losses on loans and the associated provision for losses on loans. |
FINANCIAL CONDITION
General. The Company's total assets increased $29.2 million, or 8.3%, to $379.9 million at June 30, 2007, when compared to $350.7 million at June 30, 2006. The growth was primarily due to growth in the loan portfolio of $31.1 million, or 11.1%, and was partially offset by a reduction in investment balances of $3.5 million, or 9.2%. Asset growth was primarily funded by growth in deposit balances of $12.0 million, or 4.7%, FHLB advances of $8.0 million, or 17.4%, and repurchase agreements of $6.5 million, or 57.2%. Loans. Loans increased $31.1 million, or 11.1%, to $312.0 million at June 30, 2007, from $280.9 million at June 30, 2006. The growth in the loan portfolio was comprised principally of commercial real estate and commercial business loans of $12.3 million and $10.9 million, respectively, while multi-family real estate loans increased $4.5 million, and one- to four-family real estate loans increased $3.6 million. Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses increased $480,000, or 23.3%, from $2.1 million at June 30, 2006, to $2.5 million at June 30, 2007. The allowance for loan losses represented 0.81% of gross loans receivable at June 30, 2007, as compared to 0.73% at June 30, 2006. At June 30, 2007, nonperforming loans, which included loans past due greater than 90 days and nonaccruing loans, were $26,000, compared to $53,000 at June 30, 2006 (see Provision for Loan Losses, under Comparison of Years Ended June 30, 2007 and 2006). Investments. The investment portfolio decreased $3.5 million, or 9.2%, to $34.9 million at June 30, 2007, from $38.4 million at June 30, 2006. The decrease in the investment portfolio was primarily due to the Company's strategic decision to reduce investment balances due to the lower returns available, compared to loans and cost of funding. Premises and Equipment. Premises and equipment decreased $281,000 to $8.6 million at June 30, 2007, from $8.9 million at June 30, 2006. The decrease was due to depreciation expense for the fiscal year, partially offset by equipment and software purchases. Bank Owned Life Insurance. The Bank purchased "key person" life insurance policies on six employees for a cash surrender value of $4.0 million in February, 2003. In addition, in October, 2004, the Bank purchased "key person" life insurance policies on 20 employees for $2.0 million. At June 30, 2007, the cash surrender value had increased to $7.0 million. Intangible Assets. Intangible assets generated through branch acquisitions in 2000 decreased $255,000 to $2.1 million as of June 30, 2007, and will continue to be amortized in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142. Deposits. Deposits increased $12.0 million, or 4.7%, to $270.1 million at June 30, 2007, from $258.1 million at June 30, 2006. The deposit growth was primarily comprised of increases in retail and public CDs, savings, and checking accounts of $18.5 million, $9.6 million, and $4.5 million, respectively, partially offset by decreases in brokered CDs of $13.5 million and money market deposit and passbook accounts of $6.2 million. At June 30, 2007, brokered deposits totaled less than $100,000. Management's decision to reduce the level of brokered deposits was based on the availability of other funding sources at more attractive terms. |
> FINANCIAL REVIEW (continued) <
Borrowings. FHLB advances increased $8.0 million, or 17.4%, to $54.0 million at June 30, 2007, from $46.0 million at June 30, 2006, mostly as a result of the Company's use of advances in place of brokered deposits, to fund asset growth. Of the outstanding advances, $7.0 million were short term borrowings, compared to no short term borrowings at June 30, 2006. Of the remaining $47.0 million in long-term advances, the entire amount carries fixed interest rates, and $44.0 million is subject to early redemption by the issuer. At June 30, 2007, the long-term advances had a weighted average maturity of 4.2 years, compared to 3.2 years at June 30, 2006. At June 30, 2007, all FHLB advances had a weighted-average cost of 5.42%, as compared to 5.41% at June 30, 2006.
Subordinated Debt. In March, 2004, the Company issued $7.0 million of Floating Rate Capital Securities of Southern Missouri Statutory Trust I with a liquidation value of $1,000 per share. The securities are due in 30 years, redeemable after five years and bear interest at a floating rate based on three month LIBOR. Stockholders' Equity. The Company's stockholders' equity increased by $2.1 million, or 8.1%, to $28.7 million at June 30, 2007, from $26.6 million at June 30, 2006. This increase was primarily due to net income of $2.9 million, and a $342,000 increase in the market value of the investment portfolio, net of tax, partially offset by dividend payments of $805,000. The Company announced its current stock repurchase program of approximately 110,000 shares on June 21, 2007. As of June 30, 2007, no activity had yet occurred under the program. COMPARISON OF THE YEARS ENDED JUNE 30, 2007 AND 2006 Net Income. Southern Missouri's net income was $2.9 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, an increase of $144,000, or 5.2%, when compared to the results of the prior fiscal year. The increase in net income was primarily due to a $329,000 increase in net interest income, a reduction in income tax provisions of $232,000, and an increase in non-interest income of $63,000, partially offset by a $430,000 increase in non-interest expenses, and a $50,000 increase in loan loss provisions, compared to the prior fiscal year. Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $329,000, or 3.4%, to $9.9 million for fiscal 2007, when compared to the prior fiscal year. The increase was primarily due to a $17.9 million increase in average interest-earning assets, partially offset by a 12 basis point decrease in the average interest rate spread. The decrease in interest rate spread was a result of a yield curve which remained relatively flat during the fiscal year. For fiscal 2007, the average interest rate spread was 2.57%, compared to 2.69% for fiscal year 2006. At June 30, 2007, our spread was 2.55%. Interest Income. Interest income increased $3.2 million, or 15.6%, to $23.5 million for fiscal 2007, when compared to the prior fiscal year. The increase was primarily due to the 60 basis point increase in average yield earned on interest-earning assets from 6.27% in fiscal 2006 to 6.87% in fiscal 2007. Interest income also increased due to the $17.9 million increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets. Interest income on loans receivable increased by $3.1 million, or 16.9%, to $21.7 million for fiscal 2007 when compared to the prior fiscal year. The increase was primarily due to a 59 basis point increase in the average yield earned on loans receivable. Interest income on loans also increased due to the $20.5 million increase in average loans receivable. |
Interest income on the investment portfolio and other interest-earning assets increased $49,000 or 2.7%, to $1.9 million for fiscal 2007 when compared to the prior fiscal year. The increase was due to a 33 basis point increase in the average yield earned on these assets, and was partially offset by a $2.6 million decrease in the average balance outstanding.
Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $2.9 million, or 26.5%, to $13.6 million for fiscal 2007 when compared to the prior fiscal year. The increase was primarily due to the 72 basis point increase in the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities from 3.58% in fiscal 2006 to 4.30% in fiscal 2007. Interest expense also increased due to the $16.1 million increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities. Interest expense on deposits increased $2.1 million, or 29.9%, to $9.1 million for fiscal 2007 when compared to the prior fiscal year. The increase was primarily due to an 80 basis point increase in the average rate paid on deposits. Interest expense on deposits also increased due to the $6.4 million increase in average deposits outstanding. Interest expense on FHLB advances increased $514,000, or 17.8%, to $3.4 million for fiscal 2007 when compared to the prior fiscal year. The increase was primarily due to the $8.3 million increase in the average balance of FHLB advances for fiscal 2007, and the 12 basis point increase in the average rate paid on advances. The Company issued $7.0 million of Floating Rate Capital Securities in March, 2004, with an interest rate of three month LIBOR plus 275 basis points, repricing quarterly. Interest expense on these securities was $594,000 for fiscal 2007 as compared to $512,000 for the prior fiscal year. This increase was due to the average rate paid increasing by 114 basis points. Provision for Loan Losses. A provision for loan losses is charged to earnings to bring the total allowance for loan losses to a level considered adequate by management to provide for probable loan losses based on prior loss experience, type and amount of loans in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower's ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral and current economic conditions. Management also considers other factors relating to the collectibility of the loan portfolio. The provision for loan losses was $605,000 for fiscal 2007, compared to $555,000 for the prior fiscal year. The increase in provision was primarily due to strong loan growth and additions made in anticipation of a declining credit quality environment. In fiscal 2007 net charge offs were $125,000 compared to $513,000 for the prior year. At June 30, 2007, classified assets totaled $1.3 million, roughly equal to the total of classified assets at June 30, 2006. The above provision was made based on management's analysis of the various factors which affect the loan portfolio and management's desire to maintain the allowance at a level considered adequate. Management performed a detailed analysis of the loan portfolio, including types of loans, the charge-off history, and an analysis of the allowance for loan losses. Management also considered the continued origination of loans secured by commercial businesses and commercial real estate, which bear an inherently higher level of credit risk. While management believes the allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2007, is adequate to cover all losses inherent in the portfolio, there can be no assurance that, in the future, the Bank's regulators will not require further increases in the allowance, or that actual losses will not exceed the allowance. |
> FINANCIAL REVIEW (continued) <
Noninterest Income. Noninterest income increased $63,000, or 3.0%, to $2.2 million for fiscal 2007, compared to $2.1 million in fiscal 2006. The increase was primarily due to a $102,000 increase in miscellaneous income collected (including ATM and debit card transaction income, and income from sales of loans on the secondary market), and was offset by a $61,000 decrease
in non-sufficient funds charges.
Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense increased $430,000, or 6.1%, to $7.5 million for fiscal 2007, compared to the $7.0 million expensed during fiscal 2006. The increase resulted primarily from higher compensation, legal and occupancy expenses. Expenses for compensation and benefits increased $322,000, or 8.7%, for fiscal 2007 when compared to the prior year. The increase was due to the mid-fiscal 2006 addition of employees attributable to the opening of a new branch facility, increased salaries, and other compensation-related expenditures. Occupancy expenses increased $57,000, or 4.1%, primarily due to the cost of acquiring and operating a new facility for the full fiscal year. Professional fees increased $73,000, or 41.8%, primarily due to an increase in legal expenses to obtain a recovery on a large loan loss reported in fiscal 2005. Provision for Income Taxes. The Company expensed an income tax provision of $1.1 million for fiscal 2007, compared to $1.4 million in fiscal 2006. The decrease was due to recognition of benefits from acquired tax credits, the Company's investment in additional tax-exempt securities, a reduction in pre-tax income, and adjustments related to compliance with new accounting standards. COMPARISON OF THE YEARS ENDED JUNE 30, 2006 AND 2005 Net Income. Southern Missouri's net income was $2.8 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006, an increase of $2.7 million when compared to the results of the prior fiscal year. The increase in net income was primarily due to a $4.3 million decrease in the provision for loan losses. Of the prior period's provision for loan losses, $4.5 million was due to alleged fraudulent activities undertaken by a credit relationship totaling $4.9 million. Partially offsetting the impact of the reduced loan loss provision was the reversal from the accrual of an income tax benefit of $82,000 during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005, to an income tax provision of $1.4 million during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006. Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $348,000, or 3.8%, to $9.6 million for fiscal 2006, when compared to the prior fiscal year. The increase was primarily due to a 7.3% increase in average interest-earning assets, partially offset by a 15 basis point decrease in the average interest rate spread. The decrease in interest rate spread was a result of a flattening yield curve, in which short term interest rates increased, while long term interest rates remained relatively unchanged, during the fiscal year. An example of this was the prime rate which increased 200 basis points over the year (from 6.25% to 8.25%), while the 10-year treasury rate increased by only 121 basis points (from 3.94% to 5.15%). For fiscal 2006, the average interest rate spread was 2.69%, compared to 2.84% for fiscal year 2005. |
Interest Income. Interest income increased $3.1 million, or 17.8%, to $20.4 million for fiscal 2006, when compared to the prior fiscal year. The increase was primarily due to the 56 basis point increase in average yield earned on interest-earning assets from 5.71% to 6.27%; additionally, interest income increased due to the $22.2 million increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets.
Interest income on loans receivable increased by $2.8 million, or 17.5%, to $18.6 million for fiscal 2006 when compared to the prior fiscal year. The increase was primarily due to a 63 basis point increase in average yield earned on loans receivable; additionally, interest income increased due to the $17.0 million increase in average loans receivable. Interest income on the investment portfolio and other interest-earning assets increased $316,000, or 21.1%, to $1.8 million for fiscal 2006 when compared to the prior fiscal year. The increase was primarily due to a $5.1 million increase in the average balance outstanding; additionally, interest income increased due to a 28 basis point increase in the average yield on these investments. Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $2.7 million, or 34.0%, to $10.8 million for fiscal 2006 when compared to the prior fiscal year. The increase was primarily due to the 71 basis point increase in the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities from 2.87% in fiscal 2005 to 3.58% in fiscal 2006; additionally, interest expense increased due to the $20.4 million increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities. Interest expense on deposits increased $2.5 million, or 54.7%, to $7.0 million for fiscal 2006 when compared to the prior fiscal year. The increase in interest expense was primarily due to an increase in the average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits to 3.06% for fiscal 2006 from 2.21% for fiscal 2005; the higher rates paid were the result of upward pricing of deposits in line with higher short-term interest rates. Additionally, interest expense on deposits increased as the average balance of deposits increased by $24.4 million for fiscal 2006 as compared to fiscal 2005. The increase was primarily due to growth in the CD portfolio. Interest expense on FHLB advances decreased $88,000, or 2.9%, to $2.9 million for fiscal 2006 when compared to the prior fiscal year. The decrease in interest expense was primarily due to the $5.6 million decrease in the average balance of FHLB advances for fiscal 2006, partially offset by the 35 basis point increase in the average rate paid on advances. The decrease in average balances was attributed to a reduced need for advances due to an increase in deposits during fiscal 2006. The Company issued $7.0 million of Floating Rate Capital Securities in March, 2004, with an interest rate of three month LIBOR plus 275 basis points, repricing quarterly. Interest expense on these securities was $512,000 for fiscal 2006 as compared to $370,000 for the prior fiscal year. Interest expense increased in fiscal 2006 as compared to the prior fiscal year as the average rate paid increased by 198 basis points. Provision for Loan Losses. A provision for loan losses is charged to earnings to bring the total allowance for loan losses to a level considered adequate by management to provide for probable loan losses based on prior loss experience, type and amount of loans in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower's ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral and current economic conditions. Management also considers other factors relating to the collectibility of the loan portfolio. |
> FINANCIAL REVIEW (continued) <
The provision for loan losses was $555,000 for fiscal 2006, compared to $4.8 million for the prior fiscal year. The decrease in the loan loss provision was primarily due to the aforementioned problem credit relationship which came to light during fiscal 2005. At June 30, 2006, classified assets totaled $1.3 million, compared to $1.8 million at June 30, 2005. The decrease in classified assets was primarily due to the improvement in the status of several relationships, as well as the charge off of others.
The above provision was made based on management's analysis of the various factors which affect the loan portfolio and management's desire to maintain the allowance at a level considered adequate. Management performed a detailed analysis of the loan portfolio, including types of loans, the charge-off history and an analysis of the allowance for loan losses. Management also considered the continued origination of loans secured by commercial businesses and commercial real estate. These loans bear an inherently higher level of credit risk than one- to four-family residential real estate loans. While management believes the allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2006, is adequate to cover all losses inherent in the portfolio, there can be no assurance that, in the future, the Bank's regulators will not require further increases in the allowance, or that actual losses will not exceed the allowance. Noninterest Income. Noninterest income decreased $170,000, or 7.3%, to $2.1 million for fiscal 2006, when compared to the $2.3 million earned during fiscal 2005. The decrease was primarily due to inclusion in the results of the same period of the prior year of $352,000 in gains realized on the sale of equity investments and $41,000 in dividend income received on those equities, partially offset by an increase in bank service charges of $193,000, or 18.9%, for fiscal 2006 when compared to the prior year. The increase in bank service charges was primarily due to the inclusion in the prior period's results of a $210,000 deposit loss related to the aforementioned problem credit relationship identified in fiscal 2005. Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense increased $300,000, or 4.5%, to $7.0 million for fiscal 2006, compared to the $6.7 million expensed during fiscal 2005. The increase resulted primarily from higher compensation and occupancy expenses. Expenses for compensation and benefits increased $175,000, or 5.0%, for fiscal 2006 when compared to the prior year. The increase was due to the addition of employees attributable to the opening of the new branch facility, increased salaries, and other compensation-related expenditures. Occupancy expenses increased $113,000, or 8.9%, primarily due to the costs of acquiring and operating the new facility. Provision for Income Taxes. The Company expensed an income tax provision of $1.4 million for fiscal 2006, compared to the accrual of a benefit of $82,000 in fiscal 2005. The reversal was due to the improvement in earnings. |
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The goal of the Company's asset/liability management strategy is to manage the interest rate sensitivity of both interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities in order to maximize net interest income without exposing the Company to an excessive level of interest rate risk. The Company employs various strategies intended to manage the potential effect that changing interest rates may have on future operating results. The primary asset/liability management strategy has been to focus on matching the anticipated repricing intervals of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. At times, however, depending on the level of general interest rates, the relationship between long- and short-term interest rates, market conditions and competitive factors, the Company may increase its interest rate risk position in order to maintain its net interest margin. In an effort to manage the interest rate risk resulting from fixed rate lending, the Company has utilized longer term (up to 10 year maturities) FHLB advances, which are subject to early redemption and fixed terms to offset interest rate risk. Other elements of the Company's current asset/liability strategy include: (i) increasing originations of commercial real estate, commercial business loans, agricultural real estate, and agricultural operating lines, which typically provide higher yields and shorter repricing periods, but inherently increase credit risk, (ii) limiting the price volatility of the investment portfolio by maintaining a weighted average maturity of less than five years, (iii) actively soliciting less rate-sensitive deposits, and (iv) offering competitively priced money market accounts and CDs with maturities of up to five years. The degree to which each segment of the strategy is achieved will affect profitability and exposure to interest rate risk. The Company continues to generate long-term, fixed-rate residential loans. During the year ended June 30, 2007, fixed rate residential loan originations totaled $20.1 million compared to $21.3 million during the same period of the prior year. At June 30, 2007, the fixed-rate residential loan portfolio totaled $91.2 million with a weighted average maturity of 200 months compared to $88.2 million at June 30, 2006, with a weighted average maturity of 196 months. At June 30, 2007, fixed rate loans with remaining maturities in excess of 10 years totaled $78.0 million, or 24.8%, of loans receivable compared to $74.1 million, or 26.4%, of loans receivable at June 30, 2006. The Company originated $63.3 million in fixed rate commercial and commercial real estate loans during the year ended June 30, 2007, compared to $43.4 million during the prior fiscal year. The Company also originated $45.3 million in adjustable rate commercial loans during the year ended June 30, 2007, compared to $74.0 million during the prior ye ar. The Company originated $6.8 million in adjustable rate residential loans during the year ended June 30, 2007, compared to $9.3 million during the prior year. At June 30, 2007, home equity loans had decreased to $6.5 million as compared to $7.0 million as of June 30, 2006. Over the last several years, the Company has maintained a weighted average life of its investment portfolio of less than four years. At June 30, 2007, CDs with original terms of two years or more totaled $18.4 million compared to $32.7 million at June 30, 2006. |

INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS
The following table sets forth as of June 30, 2007, and 2006, management's estimates of the projected changes in net portfolio value and net interest income in the event of 1%, 2% and 3%, instantaneous, permanent increases or decreases in market interest rates. Computations in the table below are based on prospective effects of hypothetical changes in interest rates and are based on an internally generated model using the actual maturity and repricing schedules for Southern Missouri's loans and deposits, adjusted by management's assumptions for prepayment rates and deposit runoff. Further, the computations do not consider any reactions that the Bank may undertake in response to changes in interest rates. These projected changes should not be relied upon as indicative of actual results in any of the aforementioned interest rate changes. Management cannot accurately predict future interest rates or their effect on the Company's NPV and net interest income in the future. Certain shortcomings are inherent in the method of analysis presented in the computation of NPV and net interest income. For example, although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or periods of repricing, they may react in different degrees to changes in market interest rates. Also, the interest rates on certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in market interest rates, while interest rates on other types of assets and liabilities may lag behind changes in market interest rates. Additionally, most of Southern Missouri's loans have features which restrict changes in interest rates on a short-term basis and over the life of the asset. Further, in the event of a change in interest rates, prepayment and early withdrawal levels would likely deviate significantly from those assumed in calculating the foregoing table. Finally, the ability of many borrowers to service their debt may decrease in the event of an interest rate increase. |
AVERAGE BALANCE, INTEREST AND AVERAGE YIELDS AND RATES
The table on the following page sets forth certain information relating to the Company's average interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and reflects the average yield on assets and the average cost of liabilities for the periods indicated. These yields and costs are derived by dividing income or expense by the average month-end balance of assets or liabilities, respectively, for the years indicated. Nonaccrual loans are included in the net loan category. The table also presents information with respect to the difference between the weighted-average yield earned on interest-earning assets and the weighted-average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities, or interest rate spread, which financial institutions have traditionally used as an indicator of profitability. Another indicator of an institution's net interest income is its net yield on interest-earning assets, which is its net interest income divided by the average balance of interest-earning assets. Net interest income is affected by the interest rate spread and by the relative amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. When interest-earning assets approximate or exceed interest-bearing liabilities, any positive interest rate spread will generate net interest income. |

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Southern Missouri's primary potential sources of funds include deposit growth, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, FHLB advances, amortization and prepayment of loan principal, investment maturities and sales, and ongoing operating results. While scheduled repayments on loans and securities as well as the maturity of short-term investments are a relatively predictable source of funding, deposit flows, FHLB advance redemptions and loan and security prepayment rates are significantly influenced by factors outside of the Bank's control, including general economic conditions and market competition. The Bank has relied on FHLB advances as a source for funding cash or liquidity needs. Southern Missouri uses its liquid assets as well as other funding sources to meet ongoing commitments, to fund loan commitments, to repay maturing certificates of deposit and FHLB advances, to make investments, to fund other deposit withdrawals and to meet operating expenses. At June 30, 2007, the Bank had outstanding commitments to extend credit of $36.7 million (including $30.6 million in unused lines of credit). Total commitments to originate fixed-rate loans with terms in excess of one year were $2.9 million at interest rates ranging from 6.875% to 8.75%. Management anticipates that current funding sources will be adequate to meet foreseeable liquidity needs. The primary sources of funding for the Company are deposits, securities sold under agreements to repurchase and FHLB advances. For the year ended June 30, 2007, Southern Missouri increased deposits, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, and FHLB advances by $12.0 million, $6.5 million, and $8.0 million, respectively. During the prior year, Southern Missouri increased deposits and securities sold under agreements to repurchase by $33.4 million and $538,000, respectively, while decreasing FHLB advances by $15.5 million. At June 30, 2007, the Bank had additional borrowing capacity from the FHLB of $42.4 million as compared to $51.2 million at June 30, 2007. In addition to the $42.4 million, the Bank has the ability to pledge additional loan portfolios including commercial real estate, home equity and commercial business, which could provide additional borrowing capacity of approximately $84.0 million at June 30, 2007. Liquidity management is an ongoing responsibility of the Bank's management. The Bank adjusts its investment in liquid assets based upon a variety of factors including (i) expected loan demand and deposit flows, (ii) anticipated investment and FHLB advance maturities, (iii) the impact on profitability, and (iv) asset/liability management objectives. At June 30, 2007, the Bank had $117.1 million in CDs maturing within one year and $157.3 million in other deposits and securities sold under agreements to repurchase without a specified maturity as compared to the prior year of $113.1 million in CDs maturing within one year and $143.8 million in other deposits and securities sold under agreements to repurchase. Management believes that most maturing interest-bearing liabilities will be retained or replaced by new interest-bearing liabilities. Also at June 30, 2007, the Bank had $39.0 million in FHLB advances eligible for early redemption by the lender within one year. |
REGULATORY CAPITAL
Federally insured financial institutions are required to maintain minimum levels of regulatory capital. FDIC regulations establish capital requirements, including a leverage (or core capital) requirement and a risk-based capital requirement. The FDIC is also authorized to impose capital requirements in excess of these standards on individual institutions on a case-by-case basis. At June 30, 2007, the Bank exceeded regulatory capital requirements with core and total risk-based capital of $29.9 million and $32.4 million, or 8.1% and 11.8% of adjusted total assets and risk-weighted assets, respectively. These capital levels exceeded minimum requirements of 4.0% and 8.0% for adjusted total assets and risk-weighted assets. (See Note 12 - Stockholders' Equity and Regulatory Capital.) IMPACT OF INFLATION The consolidated financial statements and related data presented herein have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in historical dollars without considering changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The primary impact of inflation on the operations of the Company is reflected in increased operating costs. Unlike most industrial companies, virtually all of the assets and liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature. As a result, changes in interest rates generally have a more significant impact on a financial institution's performance than does inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the prices of goods and services. In the current interest rate environment, liquidity and maturity structure of the Company's assets and liabilities are critical to the maintenance of acceptable performance levels. |

Southern Missouri Bancorp, Inc.
NOTE 1: Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization. Southern Missouri Bancorp, Inc., a Missouri corporation (the Company) was organized in 1994 and is the parent company of Southern Missouri Bank & Trust (the Bank). Substantially all of the Company's consolidated revenues are derived from the operations of the Bank, and the Bank represents substantially all of the Company's consolidated assets and liabilities. Basis of Financial Statement Presentation. The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and general practices within the banking industry. In the normal course of business, the Company encounters two significant types of risk: economic and regulatory. Economic risk is comprised of interest rate risk, credit risk, and market risk. The Company is subject to interest rate risk to the degree that its interest-bearing liabilities reprice on a different basis than its interest-earning assets. Credit risk is the risk of default on the Company's loan portfolio that results from the borrowers' inability or unwillingness to make contractually required payments. Market risk reflects changes in the value of collateral underlying loans receivable and the value of the Company's investment in real estate. Principles of Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, the Bank. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the 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 loan losses. In connection with the determination of the allowance for loan losses, management obtains independent appraisals for significant properties. Cash and Cash Equivalents. For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash due from depository institutions and interest-bearing deposits in other depository institutions with original maturities of three months or less. Interest-bearing deposits in other depository institutions were $4,394,010 and $3,907,302 at June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. |
Available for Sale Securities. Available for sale securities, which include any security for which the Company has no immediate plan to sell but which may be sold in the future are carried at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, are reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss, a component of stockholders' equity. All securities have been classified as available for sale.
Premiums and discounts on debt securities are amortized or accreted as adjustments to income over the estimated life of the security using the level yield method. Realized gains or losses on the sale of securities is based on the specific identification method. The fair value of securities is based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities. The Company does not invest in collateralized mortgage obligations that are considered high risk. Federal Home Loan Bank Stock. The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) system. Capital stock of the FHLB is a required investment based upon a predetermined formula and is carried at cost. Loans. Loans are stated at unpaid principal balances, less the allowance for loan losses and net deferred loan origination fees. Interest on loans is accrued based upon the principal amount outstanding. The accrual of interest on loans is discontinued when, in management's judgment, the collectibility of interest or principal in the normal course of business is doubtful. A loan is considered delinquent when a payment has not been made by the contractual due date. Interest income previously accrued but not collected at the date a loan is placed on nonaccrual status is reversed against interest income. Cash receipts on a nonaccrual loan are applied to principal and interest in accordance with its contractual terms unless full payment of principal is not expected, in which case cash receipts, whether designated as principal or interest, are applied as a reduction of the carrying value of the loan. A nonaccrual loan is generally returned to accrual status when principal and interest payments are current, full collectibility of principal and interest is reasonably assured and a consistent record of performance has been demonstrated. The allowance for losses on loans represents management's best estimate of losses probable in the existing loan portfolio. The allowance for losses on loans is increased by the provision for losses on loans charged to expense and reduced by loans charged off, net of recoveries. Loans are charged off in the period deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of loans previously charged off are recorded when received. The provision for losses on loans is determined based on management's assessment of several factors: reviews and evaluations of specific loans, changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions and the related impact on specific borrowers and industry groups, historical loan loss experience, the level of classified and nonperforming loans and the results of regulatory examinations. |
> NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) <
Southern Missouri Bancorp, Inc.
Valuation allowances are established for impaired loans for the difference between the loan amount and fair value of collateral less estimated selling costs. Impairment losses are recognized through an increase in the allowance for loan losses.
Loans are considered impaired if, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Loan fees and certain direct loan origination costs are deferred, and the net fee or cost is recognized as an adjustment to interest income using the interest method over the contractual life of the loans. Foreclosed Real Estate. Real estate acquired by foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure is initially recorded at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated selling costs. Costs for development and improvement of the property are capitalized. Valuations are periodically performed by management, and an allowance for losses is established by a charge to operations if the carrying value of a property exceeds its estimated fair value, less estimated selling costs. Loans to facilitate the sale of real estate acquired in foreclosure are discounted if made at less than market rates. Discounts are amortized over the fixed interest period of each loan using the interest method. Premises and Equipment. Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and include expenditures for major betterments and renewals. Maintenance, repairs, and minor renewals are expensed as incurred. When property is retired or sold, the retired asset and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss taken into income. The Company reviews property and equipment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment loss recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the assets. Depreciation is computed by use of straight-line and accelerated methods over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Estimated lives are generally 20 to 40 years for premises, and five to seven years for equipment. Intangible Assets. The Bank adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, effective July 1, 2002. Intangible assets acquired through the purchase of branches were excluded from the scope of SFAS 142. In October 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 147, Acquisitions of Certain Financial Institutions. SFAS 147 clarified that the carrying amount of an unidentified intangible asset should continue to be amortized. The Bank's gross amount of this intangible asset at June 30, 2007 and 2006 was $3,837,416 and $3,837,416, respectively, with accumulated amortization of $1,744,256 and $1,488,998, respectively. The intangible asset is being amortized over 15 years with amortization expense over the next five years expected to be $255,258 per year. |
Income Taxes. The Company and its subsidiary file consolidated income tax returns. Deferred assets and liabilities are recognized for the tax effects of differences between the financial reporting bases and income tax bases of the Company's assets and liabilities.
Incentive Plans. The Company accounts for its management and recognition plan (MRP) in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123 (revised 2004), "Share-Based Payment". The aggregate purchase price of all shares owned by the incentive plan is reflected as a reduction of stockholder's equity. Compensation expense is based on the market price of the Company's stock on the date the shares are granted and is recorded over the vesting period. The difference between the aggregate purchase price and the fair value on the date the shares are considered earned is recorded as an adjustment to additional paid in capital. Outside Directors' Retirement. The Bank adopted a directors' retirement plan in April 1994 for outside directors. The directors' retirement plan provides that each non-employee director (participant) shall receive, upon termination of service on the Board on or after age 60, other than termination for cause, a benefit in equal annual installments over a five year period. The benefit will be based upon the product of the participant's vesting percentage and the total Board fees paid to the participant during the calendar year preceding termination of service on the Board. The vesting percentage shall be determined based upon the participant's years of service on the Board, whether before or after the reorganization date. In the event that the participant dies before collecting any or all of the benefits, the Bank shall pay the participant's beneficiary. No benefits shall be payable to anyone other than the beneficiary, and shall terminate on the death of the beneficiary. Stock Options. In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123 (revised 2004), "Share-Based Payment," which requires the compensation costs related to share-based payment transactions to be recognized in financial statements. With limited exceptions, the amount of compensation cost is measured based on the grant-date fair value of the equity instruments issued. Compensation cost is recognized over the vesting period during which an employee provides service in exchange for the award. SFAS No. 123R was adopted during the first quarter of fiscal 2006 for the Company primarily due to the transition from a small business filer to a full filer; stock-based compensation has been recognized for all stock options granted or modified after July 1, 2005. In addition, stock options not vested on July 1, 2005, are being recognized in expense over the remaining vesting period. Because of the July 1, 2005, adoption of SFAS No. 123 R, the table on the following page only shows pro forma compensation expense for fiscal year 2005. In the table, net income and earnings per share are displayed as if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123R. |

Employee Stock Ownership Plan. The Company accounts for its employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) in accordance with American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) Statement of Position 93-6.
As of June 30, 2005, the ESOP shares were fully distributed and the Bank began purchasing additional shares under the ESOP plan. Earnings Per Share. Basic income per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted income per share includes the effect of all dilutive potential common shares (primarily stock options) outstanding during each year. Treasury Stock. Treasury stock is stated at cost. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out method. Reclassification.Certain amounts included in the 2006 and 2005 consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2007 presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on net income. The following paragraphs summarize the impact of new accounting pronouncements: In July 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48 (FIN 48), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an Interpretation of FASB Statement 109, which provides guidance on the measurement, recognition, and disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Interpretation also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, and disclosure. FIN 48 prescribes that a tax position should only be recognized if it is more-likely-than-not that the position will be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authority. A tax position that meets this |
threshold is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The cumulative effect of applying the provisions of FIN 48 is to be reported as an adjustment to the beginning balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company plans to adopt the statement on July 1, 2007, and believes the impact of the adoption of this statement on the financial results will be minimal.
In September 2006, FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, which provides enhanced guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. SFAS 157 establishes a common definition of fair value, provides a framework for measuring fair value under U.S. GAAP, and expands disclosure requirements about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued in fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of SFAS 157 will have on our financial reporting and disclosures. In September 2006, FASB issued SFAS No. 158, Employers' Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans – an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R). SFAS 158 requires an employer to recognize the overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan (other than a multiemployer plan) as an asset or liability in its statement of financial position and to recognize changes in the funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income of a business entity or changes in unrestricted net assets of a not-for-profit organization. This statement also requires an employer to measure the funded status of a plan as of the date of its year-end statement of financial position, with limited exceptions. SFAS No. 158 became effective for and was adopted by our Company for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007. The impact on our Company's financial statements at June 30, 2007, from the adoption of SFAS No. 158 is immaterial. |

In September, 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements. SAB 108 requires an entity to consider the effects of prior year misstatements when quantifying misstatements in current year financial statements for purposes of determining materiality. SAB 108 was effective for our Company beginning July 1, 2006. Adoption of SAB 108 has not resulted in a material impact on our Company's financial position or results of operations.
In February 2007, FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Liabilities, which permits companies to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective of the new pronouncement is to improve financial reporting by providing companies with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. SFAS 159 is effective for the Company beginning in fiscal 2008. The Company has not yet made a determination if it will elect to apply any of the options available in SFAS 159. In September 2006, the Emerging Issues Task Force Issue 06-4, Accounting for Deferred Compensation and Postretirement Benefit Aspects of Endorsement |
Split-Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements, was ratified. This EITF Issue addresses accounting for separate agreements which split life insurance policy benefits between an employer and employee. The Issue requires the employer to recognize a liability for future benefits payable to the employee under these agreements. The effects of applying this Issue must be recognized through either a change in accounting principle through an adjustment to equity or through the retrospective application to all prior periods. The Issue is effective for the Company beginning in fiscal 2009. The Company is currently reviewing the impact the adoption of the Issue will have on the Company's financial results.
Effective November 17, 2006, the FDIC implemented a one-time credit of $4.7 billion to eligible institutions. The purpose of the credit is to recognize contributions made by certain institutions to capitalize the Bank Insurance Fund and Savings Association Insurance Fund, which have now been merged into the Deposit Insurance Fund. The Bank is an eligible institution and has received notice from the FDIC that its share of the credit is $169,000. This amount is not reflected in the accompanying financial statements as it represents contingent future credits against future insurance assessment payments. As such, the timing and ultimate recoverability of the one-time credit may change. |

The carrying value of investment and mortgage-backed securities pledged as collateral to secure public deposits and securities sold under agreements to repurchase amounted to $33,455,667 and $28,395,994 at June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
Certain investments in debt and marketable equity securities are reported in the financial statements at an amount less than their historical cost. Total fair |
value of these investments at June 30, 2007 was $33 million, which is approximately 94.9% of the Bank's available for sale investment portfolio, as compared to $35 million or approximately 91.1% of the Bank's available for sale investment portfolio at June 30, 2006. These declines primarily resulted from recent increases in market interest rates. |
Based on evaluation of available evidence, including recent changes in market interest rates, credit rating information and information obtained from regulatory filings, management believes the declines in fair value for these securities are temporary.
Should the impairment of any of these securities become other than temporary, the cost basis of the investment will be reduced and the resulting |
loss recognized in net income in the period the other-than-temporary impairment is identified.
The following tables show our investments' gross unrealized losses and fair value, aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position at June 30, 2007 and 2006. |

NOTE 8: Subordinated Debt
Southern Missouri Statutory Trust I issued $7.0 million of Floating Rate Capital Securities (the "Trust Preferred Securities") with a liquidation value of $1,000 per share in March 2004. The securities are due in 30 years, redeemable after five years and bear interest at a floating rate based on LIBOR. At June 30, 2007, the current rate was 8.11%. The securities represent undivided beneficial interests in the trust, which was established by Southern Missouri for the purpose of issuing the securities. The Trust Preferred Securities were sold in a private transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, |
as amended (the "Act") and have not been registered under the Act. The securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements.
Southern Missouri Statutory Trust I used the proceeds from the sale of the Trust Preferred Securities to purchase Junior Subordinated Debentures of Southern Missouri Bancorp. Southern Missouri Bancorp, Inc. used its net proceeds for working capital and investment in its subsidiaries. |
NOTE 9: Employee Benefits
401(k). The Bank has a 401(k) profit sharing plan that covers substantially all eligible employees. Contributions to the plan are at the discretion of the Board of Directors of the Bank. During 2007, 2006, and 2005, there were no contributions made to the plan. Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP). The Bank established a tax-qualified ESOP in April 1994. The plan covers substantially all employees who have attained the age of 21 and completed one year of service. Benefits are vested over five years. Forfeitures are allocated on the same basis as other contributions. Benefits are payable upon a participant's retirement, death, disability or separation of service. The Bank makes discretionary contributions to the ESOP. The ESOP expense for 2007, 2006, and 2005 was $190,000, $180,000, and $191,777, respectively. The number of ESOP shares at June 30, 2007 and 2006 were as follows: |
||||
2007 | 2006 | |||
Allocated shares | 160,270 | 139,131 | ||
Unreleased shares | - | - | ||
TOTAL ESOP SHARES | 160,270 | 139,131 | ||
Management Recognition Plan (MRP). The Bank adopted an MRP for the benefit of non-employee directors and two MRPs for officers and key employees (who may also be directors) in April 1994. During 2004, the Bank granted 5,000 MRP shares to employees. During 2007, an additional 1,000 shares were granted. The shares granted are in the form of restricted stock payable at the rate of 20% of such shares per year. During 2007, 900 MRP shares vested, which had been awarded in 2004 and 2007. Compensation expense, in the amount of the fair market value of the common stock at the date of grant, will be recognized pro-rata over the five years during which the shares are payable. |
The Board of Directors can terminate the MRPs at any time, and if it does so, any shares not allocated will revert to the Company. The MRP expense for 2007, 2006, and 2005, was $13,147, $10,890, and $15,231, respectively.
Stock Option Plan. The Company adopted a stock option plan in April 1994. The purpose of the plan was to provide additional incentive to certain directors, officers and key employees of the Bank. In October 1999, the stockholders voted to increase the number of shares reserved for options by 67,932 shares. The stock options were granted at the fair market value of the common stock on the date of the grant. Through June 30, 1999, all options granted were 100% vested at the grant date. For shares granted after June 30, 1999, the vesting period ranged from the grant date up to a five year period. All options expire ten years from the date of the grant. The 1994 stock option plan expired in April 2004. In October 2003, a new stock option and incentive plan was adopted ("2003 Plan"). Under the 2003 Plan, the Company has granted 72,500 options to employees and directors. In December, 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123R, "Share-Based Payment" (SFAS 123R). SFAS 123R requires companies to recognize the cost of employee services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments, such as stock options and restricted stock, based on the fair value of those awards at the date of grant, and eliminates the choice to account for employee stock options under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" (APB 25), which is how the Company previously accounted for its stock options. The Company adopted SFAS 123R effective July 1, 2005. As a result of adopting SFAS 123R, incremental stock-based compensation expense recognized during fiscal 2006 was $53,106. As of June 30, 2007, there was $107,000 in remaining unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested stock options, which will be recognized over the remaining weighted average vesting period. The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options outstanding at June 30, 2007, was $764,000. The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options exercisable at June 30, 2007, was $761,000. |

NOTE 12: Stockholders' Equity and Regulatory Capital
The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the Federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can result in certain mandatory – and possibly additional discretionary – actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company's financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank's assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank's capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total capital and Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to |
risk-weighted assets (as defined) and of Tier I capital (as defined) to average total assets (as defined). Management believes, as of June 30, 2007, that the Bank meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.
As of June 30, 2007, the most recent notification from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based, and Tier I leverage ratios as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank's category. The Company's only significant activity is ownership of the Bank, and, therefore, its capital, capital ratios, and minimum required levels of capital are materially the same as the Bank's. The following table summarizes the Bank's actual and required regulatory capital: |

NOTE 13: Commitments and Credit Risk
Standby Letters of Credit. In the normal course of business, the Bank issues various financial standby, performance standby and commercial letters of credit for its customers. As consideration for the letters of credit, the institution charges letter of credit fees based on the face amount of the letters and the creditworthiness of the counterparties. These letters of credit are stand-alone agreements, and are unrelated to any obligation the depositor has to the Bank. Standby letters of credit are irrevocable conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Financial standby letters of credit are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements, including commercial paper, bond financing and similar transactions. Performance standby letters of credit are issued to guarantee performance of certain customers under non-financial contractual obligations. The credit risk involved in issuing standby letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers. The Bank had total outstanding standby letters of credit amounting to $696,000 and $1,270,000 at June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, with terms ranging from 12 to 24 months. At June 30, 2007, the Bank's deferred revenue under standby letters of credit agreements was nominal. Off-balance-sheet and Credit Risk. The Company's Consolidated Financial Statements do not reflect various financial instruments to extend credit to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest-rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the statements of financial condition. Lines of credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there |
is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Lines of credit generally have fixed expiration dates. Since a portion of the line may expire without being drawn upon, the total unused lines do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Each customer's creditworthiness is evaluated on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary, is based on management's credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, commercial real estate and residential real estate. Management uses the same credit policies in granting lines of credit as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.
The Company had $36.0 million in commitments to extend credit at June 30, 2007, and $39.3million at June 30, 2006. At June 30, 2007, total commitments to originate fixed-rate loans with terms in excess of one year were $2.9 million at interest rates ranging from 6.875% to 8.75%. Commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit include exposure to some credit loss in the event of nonperformance of the customer. The Company's policies for credit commitments and financial guarantees are the same as those for extension of credit that are recorded in the statements of financial condition. The commitments extend over varying periods of time with the majority being disbursed within a thirty-day period. The Company grants collateralized commercial, real estate, and consumer loans to customers in Southeast Missouri. Although the Company has a diversified portfolio, loans aggregating $135,288,000 at June 30, 2007, are secured by single and multi-family residential real estate in the Company's primary lending area. |

NOTE 15: Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The following table presents estimated fair values of the Company's financial instruments. The fair values of certain of these instruments were calculated by discounting expected cash flows, which involves significant judgments by management and uncertainties. Fair value is the estimated amount at which financial assets or liabilities could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. |
Because no market exists for certain of these financial instruments and because management does not intend to sell these financial instruments, the Company does not know whether the fair values shown below represent values at which the respective financial instruments could be sold individually or in the aggregate. |

The following methods and assumptions were used in estimating the fair values of financial instruments:
Cash and cash equivalents are valued at their carrying amounts which approximates fair value. Fair values of investment and mortgage-backed securities are based on quoted market prices or, if unavailable, quoted market prices of similar securities. Stock in FHLB is valued at cost which approximates fair value. 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 for the same remaining maturities. Loans with similar characteristics are aggregated for purposes of the calculations. Fair value of Bank owned life insurance is equal to the cash surrender value of the underlying life insurance policies. The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate their fair values. |
Deposits with no defined maturities, such as NOW accounts, savings accounts and money market deposit accounts, are valued at their carrying amount which approximates fair value.
The fair value of fixed-maturity time deposits is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. The carrying amounts of securities sold under agreements to repurchase approximate fair value. Fair value of advances from the FHLB is estimated by discounting maturities using an estimate of the current market for similar instruments. The fair value of subordinated debt is estimated using rates currently available to the Company for debt with similar terms and maturities. |
