DELANCO BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2009

 (1)         Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include all disclosures necessary for a complete presentation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  However, all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the interim financial statements have been included.  Such adjustments were of a normal recurring nature.  The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended September 30, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year or any other interim period.  For additional information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto of Delanco Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2009.  In connection with the preparation of the accompanying financial statements, the Company has evaluated events and transactions through November 12, 2009, which is the date the financial statements were available to be issued.

(2)         Use of Estimates

In preparing financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires Management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.  Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for losses on loans and the evaluation of deferred taxes.

(3)          Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) are computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity.

The difference between the common shares issued and the common shares outstanding for the purposes of calculating basic EPS is a result of the unallocated ESOP shares.

(4)          Supervisory Agreement

On December 17, 2007, Delanco Federal Savings Bank entered into a Supervisory Agreement with the OTS.  The entry into the Supervisory Agreement was based on the Bank’s 2007 report of examination in which the OTS concluded that grounds existed for the initiation of administrative proceedings against the Bank.  Without admitting or denying that such grounds existed, the Bank determined to enter into the Supervisory Agreement to cooperate with the OTS and as evidence of the Bank’s intent to comply with all applicable laws and regulations and engage in safe and sound practices.

Pursuant to the terms of Supervisory Agreement, the Bank agreed as follows:

  
To refrain from making, investing in, purchasing or otherwise modifying any commercialloan without the prior written non-objection of the OTS.

 
By December 31, 2007, to review each commercial loan file with an outstanding principal balance that equals or exceeds $250,000, and by February 29, 2008 for all other commercial loans, to determine whether all required documentation has been obtained.  All missing or incomplete documentation must be obtained by January 31, 2008 for all commercial loans with an outstanding principal balance that equals or exceeds $250,000 and by February 29, 2008 for all other commercial loans.

 
By January 31, 2008, to implement a credit administration process utilizing an electronic system and checklists to facilitate ongoing reviews of the financial condition of borrowers and guarantors.

 
To evaluate, on a semiannually basis, the effectiveness of the Bank’s credit administration function.

 
To engage an independent, third-party service provider to conduct an internal loan review of the Bank’s lending operations on a quarterly basis.  As part of the internal loan review program, the Bank must develop and implement a risk rating system for all loans.  On a quarterly basis, the Board’s Audit Committee must provide the Board with, and the Board must review and evaluate, a written report documenting the findings and recommendations relating to the internal loan reviews.

 
By December 31, 2007, to adopt and implement a written program which satisfies certain OTS regulations and interagency guidelines regarding the identification and classification of problem assets.  The program must (i) provide for and require the maintenance of an adequate allowance for loan and lease losses; (ii) ensure the prompt charge-off of loans when proper; and (iii) require the timely and accurate reporting of criticized assets, the allowance for loan and lease losses and charge-offs in the Bank’s Thrift Financial Reports (TFRs).

To prepare TFRs accurately and in accordance with applicable instructions.

 
To ensure that at the end of each quarter, the Bank’s assets have not increased by an amount greater than 2.5% of the Bank’s total assets at the end of the prior quarter.

 
To notify and receive the non-objection of the OTS before adding or replacing any Board member, employing any person as a senior executive officer or entering into or revising any contractual arrangement with any director or senior executive officer.

The Bank has received relief from two portions of the Supervisory Agreement from the OTS:

 
The Bank may refinance, extend or otherwise modify an existing commercial loan so long as no new or additional funds are advanced, without the need for the Regional director’s prior written non objection.

 
The OTS also modified the sections regarding the internal loan review, eliminating the requirement that the Audit Committee engage an independent third party. It also reduced the scope of the reviews required on a quarterly basis.

The remainder of the Supervisory Agreement will remain in effect until terminated, modified or suspended in writing by the OTS.  The failure to comply with the Supervisory Agreement could result in the initiation of formal enforcement action by the OTS, including the imposition of civil monetary penalties.

(5)          Recent  Accounting Pronouncements

Below is a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements.  Recent pronouncements not discussed below were deemed to not be applicable to the Company.

ASC Topic 820-10-65, Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly

In April 2009, the FASB issued  guidance on identifying circumstances that indicate a transaction is not orderly and guidance on estimating fair value  when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased.  This guidance emphasizes that fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions.  This guidance was adopted by the Company, for the interim period beginning April 1, 2009, and did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

ASC Topic 320-10-65, Recognition and Presentation of Other Than Temporary Impairments

In April 2009, the FASB issued  guidance  regarding the recognition and presentation of other than temporary impairments on debt and equity securities in the financial statements.  This guidance modifies the presentation of OTTI losses and expands existing disclosure requirements about OTTI.  This guidance was adopted by the Company for the interim period beginning April 1, 2009 and did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

ASC Topic 825-10-50, Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Instruments

In April 2009 the FASB issued guidance which requires publicly traded companies to disclose the fair value of financial instruments within the scope of FAS 107 in interim financial statements.  This guidance was adopted by the Company for the interim period beginning April 1, 2009.

ASC Topic 855, Subsequent Events

In May 2009 the FASB issued additional guidance on the evaluation of subsequent events and requires the disclosure of the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated.  This guidance was adopted by the Company for the interim period June 30, 2009.

FASB Statement No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles

In June 2009 the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 168 “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162”.  (SFAS No. 168).  SFAS No. 168 established the FASB Accounting Standards Codification.  The Codification will become the exclusive authoritative reference for nongovernmental U.S.  GAAP for use in financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009, except for SEC rules and interpretive releases, which are also authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants.  The contents of the Codification will carry the same level of authority, eliminating the four-level GAAP hierarchy previously set forth in Statement 162, which has been superseded by Statement 168.  All authoritative GAAP issued by the FASB after this Statement will be referred to as Accounting Standards Updates.  Accounting Standards Updates will not be considered authoritative in their own right, rather they will only serve to update the Codification, provide background information about the guidance and provide basis for conclusions on changes in the Codification.  The Codification retains existing GAAP without changing it except in one instance related to software revenue recognition, which does not impact the Company.  SFAS No. 168 is effective for the Company for the interim period ending September 30, 2009 and effective for the Form 10-Q for the period ending September 30, 2009, all references to authoritative literature are required to cite the Codification as opposed to legacy accounting pronouncements.

(6)           Fair Value of Financial Instruments

On April 1, 2009 the Bank adopted ASC Topic 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”. ASC Topic 820-10 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosure requirements for fair value measurements.  ASC Topic 820 does not require any new fair value measurements.  The adoption of ASC Topic 820-10 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In conjunction with the adoption of  ASC Topic 820, the Bank also adopted the guidance of ASC Paragraphs 820-10-50-8A, 55-23A and 55-23B on April 1, 2008.  This guidance defers its effective date of AS Topic 820 for all non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis, to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, or April 1, 2009 for the Company.

ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels, as described below:

·    Level 1
Level 1 inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 
9

 

·    Level 2
Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly.  Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets, quoted prices in markets that are not considered to be active, and observable inputs other than quoted prices such as interest rates.
·    Level 3
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs.

A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of any input significant to the fair value measurement.

As required by ASC Topic 825-10-65, the estimated fair value of financial instruments at September 30, 2009 and March 31, 2009 was as follows:

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

Management’s discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations at and for the six months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 is intended to assist in understanding our financial condition and results of operations.  The information contained in this section should be read in conjunction with the Unaudited Financial Statements and the notes thereto, appearing in Part I, Item 1 of this report.

Forward-Looking Statements

This quarterly report contains forward-looking statements that are based on assumptions and may describe our future plans, strategies and expectations.  These forward-looking statements are generally identified by use of the words “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “project” or similar expressions.

Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain.  Factors which could have a material adverse effect on our operations include, but are not limited to, changes in interest rates, national and regional economic conditions, legislative and regulatory changes, monetary and fiscal policies of the U.S. government, including policies of the U.S. Treasury and the Federal Reserve Board, the quality and composition of our loan or investment portfolios, demand for loan products, deposit flows, competition, demand for financial services in our market area, changes in real estate market values in our area, and changes in relevant accounting principles and guidelines.

Management automatically places all loans greater than 90 days past due on non-accrual status. During the quarter, the Bank accepted deeds in lieu of foreclosure on two properties that were placed into real estate owned.

Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended September 30, 2009 and 2008

 Financial Highlights. Net loss for the six months ended September 30, 2009 was $311,000 compared to a net loss of $373,000 from the prior year ended. Net loss decreased for the six months ended September 30, 2009 from the prior year period due to improvements in the net interest margin as reflected by the increase in net interest income and a reduction in noninterest expenses, partially offset by an increase in the amount of provision for loan losses.

Net Interest Income.  Net interest income increased $370,000 to $2,083,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2009 from $1,713,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2008 driven by lower interest expense due to the decreased interest rates.  The 46 basis point increase in the net interest margin to 3.34% reflected the Bank’s ability to maintain the amount of interest income recognized while significantly decreasing its cost of funds.  Interest income remained steady due to an increase in outstanding loans that offset the effect of an increased amount of non-performing loans.   The decrease in the cost of funds was driven by lower market interest rates as well as the Bank’s determination to not pay above market rates on deposits.

Average loans in the six months ended September 30, 2009 increased $7.2 million, or 7.3%, compared with the same period in 2008, driven by growth in residential mortgages.  Average investment securities in the six months ended September 30, 2009 decreased $10,000, or 0.10%, compared to the same period in 2008.  The reduction in the investment portfolio reflected payments on mortgage backed securities. Reduction of interest rates on loans and investments decreased the average yield on earning assets to 5.55% for the six months ended September 30, 2009, compared with 5.97% for the same period in 2008.

Average interest-bearing deposits in the six months ended September 30, 2009 increased $ 8.1 million, or 7.4%, compared with the same period in 2008 due to increases in interest bearing demand deposits and time deposits.  Average time deposits increased as we promoted select deposit maturities.  Decreases in market interest rates caused the average cost of deposits to drop to 2.28%, compared with 3.34% for the same period in 2008.

 Provision for Loan Losses.  The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio.  We evaluate the need to establish allowances against losses on loans on a quarterly basis.  When additional allowances are necessary, a provision for loan losses is charged to earnings.  Provisions for loan losses were $805,000 in the six months ended September 30, 2009 compared to $442,000 in the six months ended September 30, 2008.  We had $997,000 in charge-offs in the six months ended September 30, 2009, compared to $392,500 in charge-offs in the same prior year period.

Non-Interest Income.  Noninterest income decreased in the six months ended September 30, 2009 compared to the same period in the prior year primarily as a result of no rental income from the Cinnaminson office building and a reduction in miscellaneous other income.

Non-Interest Expenses.  Noninterest expenses declined in the six months ended September 30, 2009 over the same period in the prior year due to reduced professional fees and lower overall data processing costs. The on-line banking expense is now included in the data processing expense. The combined expense decreased $48,000 from the prior period, and overall data processing costs decreased $71,000. The reductions were offset by the $97,000 increase in the Federal Deposit Insurance premiums. The increased premiums include a special assessment charged to all FDIC insured financial institutions. Our charge amount was $62,117.50.

Liquidity and Capital Management

Liquidity Management.  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 of and payments on 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.  The levels of these assets depend on our operating, financing, lending and investing activities during any given period.  At September 30, 2009, cash and cash equivalents totaled $3.6 million.  In addition, at September 30, 2009, we had arrangements to borrow up to $8.5 million from the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York.  On September 30, 2009, we had $1 million in advances outstanding. During the quarter the Bank did not have any maturing borrowings.

At September 30, 2009, substantially all of our investment securities were classified as held to maturity.  We have classified our investments in this manner, rather than as available for sale, because they were purchased primarily to provide a source of income and not to provide liquidity.   We anticipate that a portion of future investments will be classified as available for sale in order to give us greater flexibility in the management of our investment portfolio.

A significant use of our liquidity is the funding of loan originations.  At September 30, 2009, we had $0.8 million in loan commitments outstanding.  In addition, we had $6.4 million in unused lines of credit.  Historically, many of the lines of credit expire without being fully drawn; therefore, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.  Another significant use of our liquidity is the funding of deposit withdrawals.  Certificates of deposit due within one year of September 30, 2009 totaled $45.8 million, or 65.7% of certificates of deposit.  The large percentage of certificates of deposit that mature within one year reflects customers’ hesitancy to invest their funds for long periods in the recent low interest rate environment.  If these maturing deposits do not remain with us, we will be required to seek other sources of funds, including other certificates of deposit and borrowings.  Depending on market conditions, we may be required to pay higher rates on such deposits or other borrowings than we currently pay on the certificates of deposit due on or before September 30, 2010.  We believe, however, based on past experience, that a significant portion of our certificates of deposit will remain with us.  We have the ability to attract and retain deposits by adjusting the interest rates offered.

Capital Management.  We are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the Office of Thrift Supervision, including a risk-based capital measure.  The risk-based capital guidelines include both a definition of capital and a framework for calculating risk-weighted assets by assigning balance sheet assets and off-balance sheet items to broad risk categories.  At September 30, 2009, we exceeded all of our regulatory capital requirements.  We are considered “well capitalized” under regulatory guidelines.

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. We currently have no plans to engage in hedging activities in the future.

For the six months ended September 30, 2009, we did not engage in any off-balance sheet transactions reasonably likely to have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Not applicable as the Company is a smaller reporting company.

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 officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13(a)-15(e) that occurred during the Company’s last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
