NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Financial Statement Presentation - The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Ocean Shore Holding Co. (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with instructions to Form 10-Q, and therefore, do not include information or footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, changes in stockholder’s equity and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. However, all normal recurring adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements have been included. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2004. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2005 or any other period.

 

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements - The preparation of the consolidated 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, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. The significant estimates include the allowance for loan losses and deferred tax asset valuation allowance. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Investment and Mortgage-Backed Securities—The Company accounts for debt and equity securities as follows:

 

a. Held to Maturity—Debt securities that management has the positive intent and ability to hold until maturity are classified as held to maturity and are carried at their remaining unpaid principal balance, net of unamortized premiums or unaccreted discounts. Premiums are amortized and discounts are accreted using a method which produces results which approximate the interest method over the estimated remaining term of the underlying security.

 

b. Available for Sale—Debt and equity securities that will be held for indefinite periods of time, including securities that may be sold in response to changes in market interest or prepayment rates, needs for liquidity and changes in the availability of and the yield of alternative investments are classified as available for sale. These securities are carried at estimated fair value, which is based on market value. Market value is determined using published quotes as of the close of business. Unrealized gains and losses are excluded from earnings and are reported net of tax in other comprehensive income. Upon the sale of securities, any unamortized premium or unaccreted discount is considered in the determination of gain or loss from the sale. Realized gains and losses on the sale of securities are recognized utilizing the specific identification method. There were no sales of available for sale securities in 2005 or 2004.

 

For all securities that are in an unrealized loss position for an extended period of time and for all securities whose fair value is significantly below amortized cost, the Company performs an evaluation of the specific events attributable to the market decline of the security. The Company considers the length of time and extent to which the security’s market value has been below cost as well as the general market conditions, industry characteristics and the fundamental operating results of the issuer to determine if the decline is other than temporary. The Company also considers as part of the evaluation its intent and ability to hold the security until its market value has recovered to a level at least equal to the amortized cost. When the Company determines that a security’s unrealized loss is other than temporary, a realized loss is recognized in the period in which the decline in value is determined to be other than temporary. The write-downs are measured based on public market prices of the security at the time the Company determines the decline in value was other than temporary.

Table of Contents

In March 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) reached a consensus regarding EITF 03-1, “The Meaning of Other-than-Temporary Impairment and its Application to Certain Investments.” The consensus provides guidance for evaluating whether an investment is other-than-temporarily impaired and was effective for other-than-temporary impairment evaluations made in reporting periods beginning after June 15, 2004. However, the guidance related to the recognition of impaired losses has been delayed by FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) EITF Issue 03-1-1. The delay of the effective date for this guidance will be superseded concurrent with the final issuance of proposed FSP EITF Issue 03-1-a. The proposed FSP would provide implementation guidance with respect to debt securities that are impaired solely due to interest rates and/or sector spreads and analyzed for other-than-temporary impairment. The disclosure provisions of EITF 03-1 continue to be effective for the Company’s consolidated financial statements and have been included in its consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2004.

 

In December 2004, the FASB revised Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123, Share-Based Payment, to require the recognition of expenses related to share-based payment transactions, including employee stock option grants, based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued. The Company is required to adopt SFAS No. 123(R) in the first quarter of 2006. Effective with the first quarter of 2006, the Company will recognize an expense over the required service period for any stock options granted, modified, cancelled, or repurchased after that date and for the portion of grants for which the requisite service has not yet been rendered, based on the grant-date fair value of those awards. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) will have to its Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company does not have any share-based payments in the periods ended March 31, 2005 and 2004.

Management believes that the estimated fair value of the securities is dependent upon the movement in market interest rate and that the unrealized losses are temporary. The determination of whether a decline in market value is other than temporary is necessarily a matter of subjective judgment. The timing and amount of any realized losses reported in the Company’s financial statements could vary if conclusions other than those made by management were to determine whether an other than temporary impairment exists.

 

At March 31, 2005, ten debt and equity securities have aggregate depreciation of 2.11% from the Company’s amortized cost basis for 12 months or longer. The unrealized loss relates principally to the decline in market interest rates. As management has the ability and intent to hold these debt securities until maturity, or for the foreseeable future, no decline is deemed to be other than temporary. Although these equity securities have unrealized losses, no credit issues have been identified that cause management to believe that declines in market value are other that temporary. Unrealized losses on marketable equity securities that are in excess of cost, and that have been sustained for 12 months, are generally recognized by management as being other than temporary and charged to earnings, unless evidence exists to support a realizable value equal to or greater than the Company’s carrying value of the investment.

Management believes that the estimated fair value of the securities is dependent upon the movement in market interest rates and that the unrealized losses are temporary. The determination of whether a decline in market value is other than temporary is necessarily a matter of subjective judgment. The timing and amount of any realized losses reported in the Company’s financial statements could vary if conclusions other than those made my management were to determine whether an other than temporary impairment exists.

 

At March 31, 2005, eight mortgage-backed securities have aggregate depreciation of 1.88% from the Company’s amortized cost basis for 12 months or longer. The unrealized losses relate principally to the decline in market interest rates. As management has the ability and intent to hold these debt securities until maturity, or for the foreseeable future, no declines are deemed to be other than temporary.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT SAFE HARBOR STATEMENT

 

This Quarterly Report may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. These statements are not historical facts, but rather are statements based on Ocean Shore Holding’s current expectations regarding its business strategies and their intended results and its future performance. Forward-looking statements are preceded by terms such as “expects,” “believes,” “anticipates,” “intends” and similar expressions.

 

Management’s ability to predict results or the effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. These factors include, but are not limited to, general economic conditions, changes in the interest rate environment, legislative or regulatory changes that may adversely affect our business, changes in accounting policies and practices, changes in competition and demand for financial services, adverse changes in the securities markets and changes in the quality or composition of the Company’s loan or investment portfolios. Additional factors that may affect our results are discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004 under “Item 1. Business – Risk Factors.” These factors should be considered in evaluating the forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. Ocean Shore Holding assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements.

The $52,000 or 7.6% increase in 2005 from 2004 was due primarily to an increase in net interest income of $262,000 and an increase in other income of $29,000 offset by an increase in other expenses of $259,000.

 

Net Interest Income

 

Net interest income increased $262,000 to $3.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to the same period in 2004.

 

Interest income increased by $480,000 including a $143,000 increase in mortgage loan income, a $132,000 increase in commercial loan income and a $164,000 increase in consumer loan income. The increase in loan income resulted from an increase in the average balance of loans of $38 million offset by a decline in the average yield of 12 basis points. Investment income increased $17,000, income in fed funds sold increased $122,000 and income in mortgage backed securities decreased by $98,000.

 

Interest expense increased by $218,000 including an increase in municipal deposit expense of $192,000, an increase in time deposit expense of $64,000 and a decrease in interest expense on borrowings of $56,000. Municipal deposit expense increased as a result of rising interest rates, while time deposit expense increased as a result of deposit growth and an increase in the average rate paid. Borrowing expense decreased as a result of lower average balance of borrowings. In December 2004 we used proceeds from our recently completed stock offering to reduce securities sold under agreements to repurchase.

 

The interest rate spread and net interest margin of the Company was 2.72% and 2.98% respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2005 compared to 2.98% and 3.03% for the same period in 2004. Due to continued repayments during the year and reinvestment in lower yielding investments and loans due to generally lower market interest rates at the medium at the long term end of the yield curve, the yield on interest earning assets decreased. The continued rise in short-term interest rates increased the cost of interest expense on deposits and borrowings.

 

The following table presents information regarding average balances of assets and liabilities, the total dollar amounts of interest income and dividends from average interest-earning assets, the total dollar amounts of interest expense on average interest-bearing liabilities, and the resulting average yields and costs. The yields and costs for the periods indicated are derived by dividing income or expense by the average balances of assets or liabilities, respectively, for the periods presented. The balances of yields and costs are annualized for presentation purposes.

For purposes of this table, average balances have been calculated using the average daily balances and nonaccrual loans are included in average balances only. Loan fees are included in interest income on loans and are insignificant. Interest income on loans and investment securities has not been calculated on a tax equivalent basis because the impact would be insignificant.

Provision For Loan Losses

 

The provision for loan losses decreased to $75,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2005 from $90,000 for the same period in 2004 reflecting the low balance of nonperforming loans.

 

Other Income

 

Other income increased $29,000 to $568,000 or 5.4% for the three month period ended March 31, 2005 from the same period in 2004. The increase occurred in service charges and fees, loan servicing fees and increases in the surrender value of bank-owned life insurance.

 

Other Expense

 

Other expenses increased $259,000 to $2.9 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2005 from the same period in 2004. Salaries and benefits increased $141,000 due to regular salary increases, occupancy and equipment increased $42,000 due primarily to increases in data processing expenses related to improvements to network security and other operating expenses increased $76,000 as accounting and legal services increased due to additional compliance requirements associated with becoming a public company.

 

Income Taxes

 

Income taxes declined $4,000 to $459,000 for an effective tax rate of 38.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2005 compared to $464,000 for an effective tax rate of 40.2% from the same period in 2004. The decline was a result of the tax effect of market value adjustments of investments available for sale.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Liquidity is the ability to meet current and future financial obligations of a short-term nature. Our primary sources of funds consist of deposit inflows, loan repayments, maturities and sales of investment securities and borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and securities are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition.

 

We regularly adjust our investments in liquid assets based upon our assessment of (1) expected loan demand, (2) expected deposit flows, (3) yields available on interest-earning deposits and securities and (4) the objectives of our asset/liability management policy.

 

Our most liquid assets are cash and cash equivalents and interest-bearing deposits. The levels of these assets depend on our operating, financing, lending and investing activities during any given period. At March 31, 2005, cash and cash equivalents totaled $43.9 million. Securities classified as available-for-sale whose market value exceeds our cost, which provide additional sources of liquidity, totaled $24.1 million at March 31, 2005. In addition, at March 31, 2005, we had the ability to borrow a total of approximately $172.9 million from the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York, which included available overnight lines of credit of $47.2 million. On that date, we had no overnight advances outstanding.

 

At March 31, 2005, we had $49.8 million in loan commitments outstanding, which included $10 million in undisbursed loans, $17.8 million in unused home equity lines of credit and $5.1 million in commercial lines of credit. Certificates of deposit due within one year of March 31, 2005 totaled $34.9 million, or 30% of certificates of deposit. We believe, however, based on past experience that a significant portion

 

16


Table of Contents

of our certificates of deposit will remain with us. We have the ability to attract and retain deposits by adjusting the interest rates offered.

 

At March 31, 2005, the Bank exceeded all of its regulatory capital requirements with tangible capital of $54.4 million, or 10.7% of total adjusted assets, which is above the required level of $7.6 million or 1.5%; core capital of $54.4 million, or 10.7% of total adjusted assets which is above the required level of $20.4 million or 4.0%; and risk-based capital of $56.0 million, or 20.6% of risk-weighted assets, which is above the required level of $21.7 million or 8.0%. The Bank is considered a “well-capitalized” institution under the Office of Thrift Supervision’s prompt corrective action regulations.

 

Non-Performing Assets

 

Non-performing assets totaled only $28,000 at March 31, 2005. Net charge-offs were $4,000 in the first quarter, compared to $8,000 in the same period last year. The allowance for loan losses was .44% of total loans at March 31, 2005 compared to .39% of total loans at March 31, 2004.

Recent Developments

 

The Bank has recently signed agreements for its seventh and eighth full service offices. The Bank has entered into a lease for a facility in the Northfield area of Egg Harbor Township. This lease will provide the Bank with approximately 2,500 square feet and three drive through lanes. The Northfield office is expected to open in the third quarter. The Bank has also entered into a contract to purchase an office in Margate. The Bank’s office will be on the first floor of a condominium project currently in development. The Margate office is expected to open in the 2nd or 3rd quarter of 2006.

 

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

 

In the normal course of operations, we engage in a variety of financial transactions that, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, are not recorded in our financial statements. These transactions involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit, interest rate and liquidity risk. Such transactions are used primarily to manage customers’ requests for funding and take the form of loan commitments and lines of credit.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2005, we engaged in no off-balance sheet transactions reasonably likely to have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

 

I tem 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

For a discussion of the Company’s asset and liability management policies, as well as the potential impact of interest rate changes upon the market value of the Company’s portfolio equity, see Item 7A in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004. Management, as part of its regular practices, performs periodic reviews of the impact of interest rate changes upon net interest income and the market value of the Company’s portfolio equity. Based on, among other factors, such reviews, management believes that there have been no material changes in the market risk of the Company’s asset and liability position since December 31, 2004.

 

Net Interest Income Simulation Analysis

 

We analyze our interest rate sensitivity position to manage the risk associated with interest rate movements through the use of interest income simulation. The matching of assets and liabilities may be analyzed by examining the extent to which such assets and liabilities are “interest sensitive.” An asset or liability is said to be interest rate sensitive within a specific time period if it will mature or reprice within that time period.

 

Simulation analysis is only an estimate of our interest rate risk exposure at a particular point in time. We continually review the potential effect changes in interest rates could have on the repayment of rate sensitive assets and funding requirements of rate sensitive liabilities.

Table of Contents

The following table reflects changes in estimated net interest income only for Ocean Shore Holding.

 

     At March 31, 2005
Percentage Change in Estimated
Net Interest Income Over


 
     12 Months

    24 Months

 

200 basis point increase in rates

   -0.40 %   1.78 %

100 basis point decrease in rates

   0.35 %   -3.86 %

 

The 200 and 100 basis point change in rates in the above table is assumed to occur evenly over the following twelve months. Based on the scenario above, net interest income would be adversely affected (within our internal guidelines) in the twelve-month period if rates rose by 200 basis points, but would be positively affected in the twenty-four month period. The reason for the increase in the twenty-four month period is that maturing short-term securities could be reinvested at the higher prevailing rates assumed by the analysis. In addition, if rates declined by 100 basis points net interest income would be adversely affected (within our internal guidelines) in both the twelve- and twenty-four month periods.

 

Net Portfolio Value Analysis

 

In addition to a net interest income simulation analysis, we use an interest rate sensitivity analysis prepared by the Office of Thrift Supervision to review our level of interest rate risk. This analysis measures interest rate risk by computing changes in net portfolio value of our cash flows from assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet items in the event of a range of assumed changes in market interest rates. Net portfolio value represents the market value of portfolio equity and is equal to the market value of assets minus the market value of liabilities, with adjustments made for off-balance sheet items. This analysis assesses the risk of loss in market risk sensitive instruments in the event of a sudden and sustained 100 to 300 basis point increase or 100 basis point decrease in market interest rates with no effect given to any steps that we might take to counter the effect of that interest rate movement. Because of the low level of market interest rates, this analysis is not performed for decreases of more than 100 basis points. We measure interest rate risk by modeling the changes in net portfolio value over a variety of interest rate scenarios. The following table, which is based on information that we provide to the Office of Thrift Supervision, presents the change in our net portfolio value at March 31, 2005 that would occur in the event of an immediate change in interest rates based on Office of Thrift Supervision assumptions, with no effect given to any steps that we might take to counteract that change.

The Office of Thrift Supervision uses certain assumptions in assessing the interest rate risk of savings associations. These assumptions relate to interest rates, loan prepayment rates, deposit decay rates, and

 

19


Table of Contents

the market values of certain assets under differing interest rate scenarios, among others. As with any method of measuring interest rate risk, certain shortcomings are inherent in the method of analysis presented in the foregoing table. For example, although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or periods to 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 may lag behind changes in market rates. Additionally, certain assets, such as adjustable-rate mortgage loans, have features that 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, expected rates of prepayments on loans and early withdrawals from certificates could deviate significantly from those assumed in calculating the table.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

The Company’s management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Based upon their evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective for the purpose of ensuring that the information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) (1) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (2) is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial offers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In addition, based on that evaluation, no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2005 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
