NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

Fairmount Bancorp, Inc. (Company) was incorporated on November 30, 2009 to serve as the holding company for Fairmount Bank (Bank), a federally chartered savings bank. On June 2, 2010, in accordance with a Plan of Conversion adopted by its Board of Directors and approved by its members, the Bank converted from a mutual savings bank to a stock savings bank and become the wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The conversion was accomplished through the sale and issuance of 444,038 shares of common stock at a price of $10.00 per share, through which the Company received proceeds of approximately $3,742,000, net of offering expenses of approximately $699,000. In connection with the conversion, the Bank’s Board of Directors adopted an employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) which subscribed for 8% of the sum of the number of shares, or 35,523 shares of common stock sold in the offering. Accordingly, the reported results for the three months and nine months ended June 30, 2009 related solely to the operations of the Bank. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

In accordance with Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) regulations, upon the completion of the conversion, the Bank restricted retained earnings by establishing a liquidation account. The liquidation account will be maintained for the benefit of eligible account holders who continue to maintain their accounts at the Bank after conversion. The liquidation account will be reduced annually to the extent that eligible account holders have reduced their qualifying deposits. Subsequent increases will not restore an eligible account holder’s interest in the liquidation account. In the event of a complete liquidation of the Bank, and only in such event, each account holder will be entitled to receive a distribution from the liquidation account in an amount proportionate to the adjusted qualifying account balances then held. The Bank may not pay dividends if those dividends would reduce equity capital below the required liquidation account amount.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented have been included. Operating results for the nine months ended June 30, 2010, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending September 30, 2010, or any other period. For further information, refer to the Bank’s annual audited financial statements and related notes for the year ended September 30, 2009 included in the Company’s prospectus dated April 15, 2010.

Nature of Operations

The Bank is a community-oriented federal savings bank, which provides a variety of financial services to individuals and corporate customers through its home office in the Rosedale area of Baltimore County, Maryland, and is subject to competition from other financial institutions. The Bank’s primary deposit products are interest-bearing savings, certificates of deposit and individual retirement accounts. The Bank’s primary lending products are single-family residential mortgage loans. The Bank is subject to the regulation of certain Federal agencies and undergoes periodic examination by those regulatory authorities.

Estimates

The preparation of 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

Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

 

and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported 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 losses on loans and leases and the valuation of real estate acquired in connection with foreclosures or in satisfaction of loans. In connection with the determination of the allowances for losses on loans and leases and foreclosed real estate, management obtains independent appraisals for significant properties.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2009, the FASB issued new guidance relating to the accounting for transfers of financial assets. The new guidance, which was issued as SFAS No. 166, “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets, an amendment to SFAS No. 140”, was adopted into Codification in December 2009 through the issuance of Accounting Standards Updated (“ASU”) 2009-16. The new standard provides guidance to improve the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability of the information that an entity provides in its financial statements about a transfer of financial assets; the effects of a transfer on its financial position, financial performance, and cash flows; and a transferor’s continuing involvement, if any, in transferred financial assets. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued new guidance relating to the variable interest entities. The new guidance, which was issued as SFAS No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R), was adopted into Codification in December 2009. The objective of the guidance is to improve financial reporting by enterprises involved with variable interest entities and to provide more relevant and reliable information to users of financial statements. SFAS No. 167 is effective as of January 1, 2010. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-15, Accounting for Own-Share Lending Arrangements in Contemplation of Convertible Debt Issuance or Other Financing. ASU 2009-15 amends Subtopic 470-20 to expand accounting and reporting guidance for own-share lending arrangements issued in contemplation of convertible debt issuance. ASU 2009-15 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2009 and interim periods within those fiscal years for arrangements outstanding as of the beginning of those fiscal years. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-04, Accounting for Various Topics – Technical Corrections to SEC Paragraphs. ASU 2010-04 makes technical corrections to existing SEC guidance including the following topics: accounting for subsequent investments, termination of an interest rate swap, issuance of financial statements - subsequent events, use of residential method to value acquired assets other than goodwill, adjustments in assets and liabilities for holding gains and losses, and selections of discount rate used for measuring defined benefit obligation. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. ASU 2010-06 amends Subtopic 820-10 to clarify existing disclosures, require new disclosures, and includes conforming amendments to guidance on employers’ disclosures about postretirement benefit plan assets. ASU 2010-06 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances,

and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-08, Technical Corrections to Various Topics. ASU 2010-08 clarifies guidance on embedded derivatives and hedging. ASU 2010-08 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In February 2010, The FASB issued ASU 2010-09, Subsequent Events (Topic 855): Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements. ASU 2010-09 addresses both the interaction of the requirements of Topic 855 with the SEC’s reporting requirements and the intended breadth of the reissuance disclosures provisions related to subsequent events. An entity that is an SEC filer is not required to disclose the date through which the subsequent events have been evaluated. ASU 2010-09 is effective immediately. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In July 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-20, “Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses.” The new disclosure guidance will significantly expand the existing requirements and will lead to greater transparency into a company’s exposure to credit losses from lending arrangements. The extensive new disclosures of information as of the end of a reporting period will become effective for both interim and annual reporting periods ending at December 31, 2010. Specific items regarding activity that occurred before the issuance of the ASU, such as the allowance rollforward and modification disclosures, will be required for periods beginning after December 31, 2010. The Company is currently assessing the impact that ASU 2010-20 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Other than the disclosures contained within these statements, the Bank has determined that all other recently issued accounting pronouncements will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements or do not apply to its operations.

Earnings per Common Share

Basic earnings per share amounts are based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period and the net income applicable to common stockholders. The Company has no dilutive potential common shares for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2010. Because the mutual to stock conversion was not completed until June 2, 2010, the earnings per share data are not presented for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2009.

Note 2. Employee Stock Ownership Plan

In connection with the conversion to stock form, the Bank established an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) for the exclusive benefit of eligible employees. The ESOP borrowed funds from the Company in an amount sufficient to purchase 35,523 shares or 8% of the Common Stock issued in the offering. The shares were acquired at a price of $10.00 per share.

The loan is secured by the shares purchased and will be repaid by the ESOP with funds from contributions made by the Bank and dividends received by the ESOP, with funds from any contributions on ESOP assets. Contributions will be applied to repay interest on the loan first and the remainder will be applied to principal. The loan is expected to be repaid over a period of 10 years.

Shares purchased with the loan proceeds are held in a suspense account for allocation among participants as the loan is repaid. Contributions to the ESOP and shares released from the suspense account are allocated among participants in proportion to their compensation, relative to total compensation of all active participants. Participants will vest their accrued benefits under the employee stock ownership plan at the rate of 20% per year. Vesting is accelerated upon retirement, death or disability of the participant, or a change in control of the Bank. Forfeitures will be reallocated to remaining plan participants. Benefits may be payable upon retirement, death, disability, separation of service, or termination of the ESOP.

The debt of the ESOP, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, is eliminated in consolidation and the shares pledged as collateral are reported as unearned ESOP shares in the consolidated balance sheet. Contributions to the ESOP shall be sufficient to pay principal and interest currently due under the loan agreement. As shares are committed to be released from collateral, the Company reports compensation expense equal to the average market price of the shares for the respective period, and the shares become outstanding for earnings per share computations. Dividends on allocated ESOP shares are recorded as a reduction of debt and accrued interest. There was no ESOP compensation expense for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

A summary of ESOP shares at June 30, 2010 is as follows:

Note 3. Securities (Continued)

 

At June 30, 2010, the Bank had two investments with gross unrealized losses totaling ($5,822). At September 30, 2009, the Bank held one investment with a gross unrealized loss totaling $(4,377). The unrealized losses related principally to current interest rates for similar types of securities and are therefore considered temporary. In determining if unrealized losses are other than temporary, consideration is given to the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and the intent of the Company to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value and the likelihood of being required to sell the investments.

Note 4. Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses

   $ 301,007    $ 413,664
             

At June 30, 2010, the recorded investment of impaired loans was $116,219 with a related allowance for loan losses of $68,789. The interest recognized for the nine months ended June 30, 2010, amounted to $1,491 due to the impaired loan being changed to non-accrual status in February 2010. At June 30, 2010, there were no loans 90 days past due and still accruing interest. At June 30, 2010, the Bank had five loans on non-accrual status with foregone interest in the amount of $11,887. At September 30, 2009, the Bank had five loans on non-accrual status with foregone interest in the amount of $11,273.

Note 5. Fair Value Measurements

Generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) define fair value, establish a framework for measuring fair value, establish a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurement and enhance disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. GAAP clarifies the definition of fair value as 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.

Note 5. Fair Value Measurements (Continued)

 

The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active or by model-based techniques in which all significant inputs are observable in the market for the asset or liability, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

Level 3 – Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement and based on the Bank’s own assumptions about market participants’ assumptions.

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy:

Securities Available for Sale

Where quoted prices are available in an active market, securities available for sale are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 would include highly liquid government bonds, mortgage products and exchange traded equities. If quoted market prices are not available, securities available for sale are classified within level 2 and fair value values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics, or discounted cash flow. Level 2 would include U.S. agency securities, mortgage-backed securities, obligations of states and political subdivisions and certain corporate,

asset-backed and other securities. In certain cases where there is limited activity or less transparency around inputs to the valuation, securities are classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.

Impaired Loans

Loans are designated as impaired when, in the judgment of management based on current information and events, it is probable that all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement will not be collected. Impaired loans are measured at an observable market price (if available), or at fair value of the loan’s collateral (if the loan is collateral dependent). When the loan is dependent on collateral, fair value of collateral is determined by appraisal or independent valuation which is then adjusted for the related cost to sell. Impaired loans allocated to the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses are measured at the lower of cost or fair value on a nonrecurring basis.

Foreclosed Real Estate

Foreclosed real estate is measured at fair value less cost to sell. The valuation of the fair value measurement follows GAAP. Foreclosed real estate is measured on a nonrecurring basis.

In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles concerning accounting for Loan and Lease Losses, a loss of $39,763 was recognized as a charge to the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses at the time the foreclosed property was acquired based on an independent appraisal of the property’s fair value.

Note 6. Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated events and transactions subsequent to June 30, 2010 through the date these financials were issued. Based on definitions and requirements of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles for “Subsequent Events”, the Company has not identified any events that require adjustment to or disclosure in the financial statements.

Additional factors that may affect our results are discussed beginning on page 13 of the Company’s prospectus dated April 15, 2010 under the section titled “Risk Factors”. These factors should be considered in evaluating the forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. Except as required by applicable law or regulation, the Company assumes no obligation and disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statements.

Critical Accounting Policies

During the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2010, there was no significant change in the Bank’s critical accounting policies or the application of critical accounting policies as disclosed in the Bank’s audited consolidated financial statements and related footnotes for the year ended September 30, 2009 included in the Company’s prospectus dated April 15, 2010.

Comparison of Financial Condition at June 30, 2010 and September 30, 2009

Total assets increased by $7,896,000, or 12.33%, to $71,937,000 at June 30, 2010 from $64,041,000 at September 30, 2009. The increase was the result of increases of $2,671,000 in cash and cash equivalents, $3,000,000 in investment securities, and $1,990,000 in net loans.

Cash and cash equivalents increased from $4,633,000 at September 30, 2009 to $7,304,000 at June 30, 2010. This was an increase of $2,671,000, or 57.65%. The increase was mainly the result of net proceeds received from the issuance of common stock.

Investment securities increased by $3,000,000, or 58.89%, to $8,094,000 at June 30, 2010 from $5,094,000 at September 30, 2009. The increase was the result of $4,019,000 in purchases offset by $1,135,000 in maturities, payments and calls.

Total net loans increased from $50,334,000 at September 30, 2009 to $52,324,000 at June 30, 2010. This represented an increase of $1,990,000, or 3.95%. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase of $1,234,000, or 3.11%, in one-to four-family real estate mortgage loans and an increase of $1,015,000, or 36.93%, in construction and land development loans.

Total prepaid expenses increased from $91,000 at September 30, 2009 to $318,000 at June 30, 2010, which was an increase of $227,000 or 249.45%. The increase was primarily the result of the prepayment in December 2009 of FDIC insurance premiums. FDIC insurance premiums, in the amount of $176,000 at June 30, 2010, are prepaid through the fourth quarter 2012 and are being expensed by the Bank on a monthly basis.

Table of Contents

Total liabilities at June 30, 2010 were $61,282,000, an increase of $4,031,000, or 7.04%, from $57,251,000 at September 30, 2009. The increase was due primarily to an increase in total deposits of $4,009,000, or 8.75% from September 30, 2009 to June 30, 2010.

Deposits increased from $45,838,000 at September 30, 2009 to $49,847,000 at June 30, 2010. This represented an increase of $4,009,000, or 8.75%. Non-interest bearing deposits increased by $766,000 or 170.98%, from $448,000 at September 30, 2009 to $1,214,000 at June 30, 2010. The increase was primarily the result of increasing balances in non-demand mortgage escrow accounts. Interest-bearing demand deposits increased to $4,126,000 at June 30, 2010 from $3,376,000 at September 30, 2009. This was an increase of $750,000, or 22.22%. Savings deposits increased by $153,000, or 1.67%, to $9,317,000 at June 30, 2010, from $9,164,000 at September 30, 2009. Certificates of deposit increased from $32,850,000 at September 30, 2009, to $35,190,000 at June 30, 2010. This was an increase of $2,340,000, or 7.12%, from September 30, 2009 to June 30, 2010.

Stockholder’s equity was $10,655,000, or 14.81% of total assets at June 30, 2010, compared to $6,790,000, or 10.60%, of total assets at September 30, 2009. The primary reason for the increase of $3,865,000 was the stock conversion which was completed on June 2, 2010 and resulted in net offering proceeds of approximately $3,742,000. Other changes include net income for the nine months ended June 30, 2010 of $406,000, unearned ESOP shares of ($355,000) and a $73,000 increase in other comprehensive income related to the effects of interest rate fluctuations on the Bank’s available for sale securities portfolio.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2010 and 2009

Overview. Net income increased by $16,000, or 11.43%, to $156,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 from $140,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010. Net interest income increased by $113,000, or 22.69%, to $611,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 from $498,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010. Provision for loan and lease losses increased by $25,000, or 125.00%, to $45,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 from $20,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2009. Non-interest income decreased $25,000, or 43.86%, from $57,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2009 to $32,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010. Non-interest expense increased $51,000, or 16.19%, to $366,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 from $315,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2009.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $113,000, or 22.69%, to $611,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 from $498,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2009. The increase primarily resulted from the combined effects of an increase of $66,000, or 7.59%, in interest and dividend income to $935,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 from $869,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2009, and a decrease of $47,000, or 12.67%, in interest expense to $324,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 from $371,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2009. The increase in interest and dividend income was mainly the result of increases in the average balances of loans and investments. Interest expense decreased primarily as a result of the decrease in average rates paid on deposits and borrowings.

Provision for Loan and Lease Losses. The Bank establishes a provision for loan losses, which is charged to operations, in order to maintain the allowance for loan and leases losses at a level the Bank considers necessary to absorb credit losses incurred in the loan portfolio that are both probable and reasonably estimated at the balance sheet date. In determining the level of the allowance for loan and lease losses, the Bank considers past and current loss experience, evaluations of real estate collateral, current economic conditions, volume and type of lending, adverse situations that may affect a borrower’s ability to repay a loan and the levels of non-performing loans. The amount of the allowance is based on estimates and actual losses may vary from such estimates as more information becomes available or economic conditions change. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as circumstances change as more information becomes available. The allowance for loan losses is assessed on a quarterly basis and provisions are made for loan and lease losses as required in order to maintain the allowance.

The provision for loan and lease losses increased $25,000 to $45,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010, from $20,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2009. The primary factors that contributed to the increase in the provision for loan and lease losses were the increase in substandard rated loans from March 2010, an increase in the specific allowance for our impaired loan from $52,000 at March 31, 2010 to $69,000 at June 30, 2010, and the uncertainty regarding the housing market. The Bank did not record charge-offs during the three months ended June 30, 2010. The Bank recorded net charge-offs of $15,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2009.

Non-Interest Income. Non-interest income was $32,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010, which was a decrease of $25,000, or 43.86%, from $57,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2009. The decrease was primarily the result of a decrease in service charges and fees, which decreased due to a decline in one-to four-family non-owner occupied loan settlements during the comparable three month periods.

Non-Interest Expense. Non-interest expense increased by $51,000, or 16.19%, to $366,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 from $315,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2009. The increase was due to increases in salaries, fees and employment expenses, increases in premises and equipment expenses, offset by a decrease in Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance premiums. Salaries, fees and employment expenses increased by $39,000, or 22.16%, from $176,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2009 to $215,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010, primarily as a result of hiring a chief financial officer and an assistant branch manager. Premises and equipment expenses increased by $26,000, or 152.94%, from $17,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2009 to $43,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The increase was primarily the result of the new headquarter facility that was opened in September 2009. FDIC insurance premiums decreased by $10,000 from $30,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2009 to $20,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010. Several factors attributed to the decrease in FDIC insurance premiums including a one-time assessment that was paid in the quarter ending June 30, 2009 in the amount of $28,000, offset by an increase in the FDIC quarterly multiplier, which is used to compute the payment amount and the depletion of the one-time assessment credit.

Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes decreased by $4,000, or 5.00%, to $76,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 from $80,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2009. The Bank changed its accounting method for taxes for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010 and therefore anticipates a decrease in the overall tax liability.

Total Comprehensive Income. Total comprehensive income for the periods presented consisted of net income and the change in unrealized gains (losses) on securities available for sale, net of tax. Total comprehensive income was $214,000 and $122,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The increase in total comprehensive income resulted from an increase of $16,000 in net income and an increase of $76,000 in adjustments to accumulated other comprehensive income from the change in unrealized gains (losses) on securities available for sale.

Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended June 30, 2010 and 2009

Overview. Net income decreased by $3,000, or 0.73%, to $406,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2010 from $409,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2009. Net interest income increased $336,000, or 23.75%, to $1,751,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2010 from $1,415,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2009. Provision for loan and lease losses increased by $73,000, or 228.13%, to $105,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2010 from $32,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2009. Non-interest income decreased by $7,000, or 6.19%, from $113,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2009 to $106,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2010. Non-interest expense increased $250,000, or 29.10%, to $1,109,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2010 from $859,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2009.

Total comprehensive income was $479,000 and $545,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The decrease in total comprehensive income resulted from a decrease of $3,000 in net income and a decrease of $63,000 in adjustments to accumulated other comprehensive income from the change in unrealized gains (losses) on securities available for sale.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is the ability to meet current and future financial obligations of a short-term nature. The Bank’s primary sources of funds consist of deposit inflows, loan repayments, and maturities of securities. In addition, the Bank has the ability to borrow funds from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta, and it has credit availability with a correspondent bank. 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.

Table of Contents

The Board of Directors is responsible for establishing and monitoring the Bank’s liquidity targets and strategies in order to ensure that sufficient liquidity exists for meeting the borrowing needs and deposit withdrawals of its customers as well as unanticipated contingencies. The Bank believes that it has enough sources of liquidity to satisfy its short and long-term liquidity needs as of June 30, 2010.

The Bank regularly monitors and adjusts its investments in liquid assets based upon its assessment of: (1) expected loan demand; (2) expected deposit flows; (3) yields available on interest-earning deposits and securities; and (4) the objectives of its asset/liability management program. Excess liquid assets are invested generally in interest-earning deposits and short and intermediate term assets.

The Bank’s most liquid assets are cash and cash equivalents, which include federal funds sold and interest-bearing deposits in other banks. The levels of these assets are dependent on its operating, financing, lending and investing activities during any given period. At June 30, 2010, cash and cash-equivalents totaled $7,304,000. Securities classified as available for sale, totaling $5,828,000 provide additional sources of liquidity. In addition, at June 30, 2010, we had the ability to borrow a total of approximately $21,500,000 from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta. At June 30, 2010, we had $11,000,000 in Federal Home Loan Bank advances outstanding. The Bank also has a credit availability of $1,500,000 with a correspondent bank. There were no borrowings outstanding at June 30, 2010.

At June 30, 2010, the Bank had $800,000 in loan commitments outstanding. In addition, at that date, the Bank had $4,224,000 in unused lines of credit to borrowers and standby letters of credit. Certificates of deposit due within one year of June 30, 2010, totaled $19,651,000, or 39.42% of total deposits. If these deposits do not remain with the Bank, it will be required to seek other sources of funds, including other deposits and Federal Home Loan Bank advances. Depending on market conditions, the Bank may be required to pay higher rates on such deposits or borrowings than it currently pays on certificates of deposit on or before June 30, 2011. The Bank believes, however, based on past experience that a significant portion of such deposits will remain with it. The Bank has the ability to attract and retain deposits by adjusting the interest rates offered.

The Bank is required to maintain specific amounts of capital pursuant to OTS regulatory requirements. As of June 30, 2010, the Bank was in compliance with all regulatory capital requirements, which were effective as of such date, with tier 1 core, tier 1 risk-based, and total risk-based capital ratios of 12.10%, 22.28% and 22.93%, respectively. The regulatory requirements as of that date were 4.0%, 4.0% and 8.0% respectively.

The Company is a separate legal entity from the Bank and will have to provide for its own liquidity to pay its operating expenses and other financial obligations. The Company’s primary source of income will be dividends received from the Bank. The amount of dividends that the Bank may declare and pay to the Company in any calendar year, without the receipt of prior approval from the OTS but with the prior notice to the OTS, cannot exceed net income for that year to date plus retained net income for the preceding two calendar years. At June 30, 2010, the Company had liquid assets of $1,728,000.

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 and 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. In addition, based on that evaluation, no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2010 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The Company is not involved in any pending legal proceedings.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

(a) Not applicable

(b) On October 21, 2009, the Board of Directors of the Bank adopted a plan of conversion and reorganization, pursuant to which the Bank would convert from the mutual to the stock form of ownership, and the Company would sell shares of common stock to the public. The Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-1 on December 17, 2009 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (File No. 333-163797) with respect to the shares to be offered and sold pursuant to the stock issuance plan. The Registration Statement was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 15, 2010. The Company registered 661,250 shares pursuant to the Registration Statement, for an aggregate offering price of $6,612,500. The stock offering commenced on April 22, 2010, and the conversion was consummated on June 2, 2010.

Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated (“Stifel Nicolaus”) was engaged to act as a conversion advisor and selling agent in connection with the offer and sale of the Company’s common stock on a best efforts basis. For their services, Stifel, Nicolaus received total fees of $165,000. Stifel, Nicolaus was also reimbursed $78,182 for its out-of-pocket expenses, including its legal fees and expenses.

In connection with the conversion and offering, the Company sold 444,038 shares of its common stock at a price of $10.00 per share, raising $4,440,380 of gross proceeds. Expenses related to the offering were approximately $699,000, including the fees and expenses paid to Stifel Nicolaus. Net proceeds from the initial offering were approximately $3,742,000. As a result of the offering, 444,038 shares of the Company’s common stock are outstanding as of August 13, 2010.

Approximately 50% of the net proceeds of the offering, or $1,900,000, were contributed by the Company to the Bank in return for 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Bank. In addition, the Company made a loan to the Bank’s employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) in the amount of $355,230, which the ESOP used to purchase 35,523 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company retained approximately $1,487,000 of the net proceeds. Initially, both the Company and the Bank invested the net proceeds from the stock offering in short-term investments.

Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities

None.

 

Item 4. (Removed and Reserved)

 

Item 5. Other Information

Legislation was enacted on July 21, 2010 that will implement sweeping changes to the current bank regulatory structure. The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) will eliminate the Office of Thrift Supervision. The Comptroller of the Currency (the primary federal regulator for national banks) will become the primary federal regulator of the Bank. The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve”) will have exclusive authority to regulate all bank and thrift holding companies. As a result, the Company will become subject to supervision by the Federal Reserve Board as opposed to the Office of Thrift Supervision. These changes to our regulators will occur on the transfer date, which is expected to be one year from the enactment of the Dodd-Frank Act (unless extended by up to six months).

Among the many requirements in the Dodd-Frank Act for new banking regulations is a requirement for new capital regulations to be adopted within 18 months. These regulations must be at least as stringent as, and may call for higher levels of capital than, current regulations. Savings and loan holding companies like the Company have not previously been subject to capital requirements, but under the Dodd-Frank Act, five years from the date of enactment, savings and loan holding companies will become subject to the same capital requirements as bank holding companies. Savings and loan holding companies are immediately subject to the source of strength doctrine, under which a holding company must serve as a source of financial strength for its depository institution subsidiaries.

While the Dodd-Frank Act is likely to increase the Company’s and the Bank’s regulatory compliance burdens, the Company believes that it is too early to assess its full impact, in part because the Dodd-Frank Act’s provisions require subsequent regulatory rulemaking. It is anticipated that, when adopted, these new regulations will require the Company and the Bank to invest significant management attention and resources to evaluate and implement necessary changes.
