Item 1. Financial Statements
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To The Board of Directors
BNL Financial Corporation
We have reviewed the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet of BNL Financial Corporation and Subsidiaries as of September 30, 2011 and the related Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 and the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010. These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Corporation’s management.
We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We have previously audited, in accordance with auditing standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the Consolidated Balance Sheet of BNL Financial Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010 and the related Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income, Changes in Shareholders’ Equity and Cash Flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated March 31, 2011, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2010 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the Consolidated Balance Sheet from which it has been derived.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) as of September 30, 2011 have been reviewed by independent certified public accountants. In the opinion of management, the aforementioned financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position as of September 30, 2011, and the results of operations and cash flows for the period ended September 30, 2011. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature.
The statements have been prepared to conform to the requirements of Form 10-Q and do not necessarily include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The reader should refer to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, previously filed with the Commission, for financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010, prepared in accordance with GAAP. Net income per share of common stock is based on the weighted average number of outstanding common shares.
2. Change in Accounting Estimate
The group dental claims loss ratio was 63.6% during the first nine months of 2011 compared to 63.7% for the same period in 2010. The dental claims liability at December 31, 2010 was under estimated by approximately $56,000, which had the effect of increasing claims expense in 2011 in accordance with the ASC 250-10 requirements regarding accounting for a change in estimate. The under estimation of dental claims liability at December 31, 2010 resulted in a decrease in net income of approximately $46,000, net of tax, for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. Due to the monthly fluctuation in claims incurred, this accrual is difficult to estimate.
3. Investments

The original loan, dated July 25, 2001, was $1,357,407 at 14% interest. Monthly principal payments were scheduled to begin on September 15, 2008 with a maturity date of August 15, 2015. On July 14, 2008, the Company and EBI amended the Debenture whereby the monthly principal payments will start on September 15, 2013 with the maturity date extended to August 15, 2020.
In accordance with applicable generally accepted accounting principles the Company analyzes discounted expected future cash flows and in prior years established an allowance for credit losses in the amount of $302,989 resulting in a net book value of $1,054,418. The debenture interest for August, 2011 was not paid to the Company by the end of the quarter. The Company has reached an agreement with EBI to bring the August payment current by deducting one third of the payment from the October, November and December claims services paid to EPSI. Any future debenture interest payments that are not made on a timely basis will be deducted from the EPSI claims services invoice.
The Company’s policy for recognizing interest income on impaired investments is to recognize interest under the stated loan terms. Interest on the investment has been current up to August, 2011.
The average book value on impaired investments during the period ended September 30, 2011 was $1,054,418. Interest income recognized in 2011 on the impaired investments was $142,844.

In the first quarter of 2011 the Company recognized an other than temporary impairment on the 6,100 shares of common stock of Treaty Oak Bank and wrote the stock down to $0, for a realized loss of $3,050. The stock was purchased for $50,813 or $8.33 a share. The bank’s stock was written down to market value of $0.50 at September 30, 2010.
The Company’s conservative investment philosophies minimize market risk and risk of default by investing in high quality debt instruments with staggered maturity dates. The Company does not hedge investment risk through the use of derivative financial instruments. The market value of the Company’s investments in debt instruments varies with changes in interest rates. A significant increase in interest rates could cause decreases in the market values of investments and have a negative effect on comprehensive income and capital.
The following table shows the gross unrealized losses and fair value of the Company’s investments with unrealized losses that are not deemed to be other than temporarily impaired, aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position at September 30, 2011.

U.S. Treasury and U.S. Government Agency Obligations
The unrealized losses on the Company's investments in U.S. Treasury and U. S. Government Agency obligations are all less than 12 months old. The contractual terms of those investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized cost of the investment. Because the Company has the ability and intent to hold those investments until a recovery of fair value, which may be maturity or until they are called, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at September 30, 2011.
Federal Agency Mortgage-Backed Securities
The unrealized losses on the Company's investment in federal agency mortgage-backed securities are not material at September 30, 2011. The contractual cash flows of those investments are guaranteed by an agency of the U.S. government. Accordingly, it is expected that the securities would not be settled at a price less than the amortized cost of the Company's investment. Because the decline in market value is attributable to factors other than credit quality, and because the Company has the ability and intent to hold those investments until a recovery of fair value, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at September 30, 2011.

The corporate bonds with unrealized losses in the table are insurance corporations that have had their fair value increase in 2011. The Company currently does not believe it is probable that it will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the investments. Therefore, it is expected that the debentures would not be settled at a price less than the amortized cost of the investment. Because the Company has the ability and intent to hold these investments until a recovery of fair value, which may be maturity, it does not consider the investments to be other than temporarily impaired at September 30, 2011. All of the Company’s bonds are classified as hold to maturity.

The Company's marketable equity securities include a variety of industries. Garmin LTD has the largest unrealized loss of $57,922, which is approximately a 55% decrease in value. Garmin manufactures communication and navigational products, and they are the leader in personal navigational devices. Garmin continues to remain profitable in 2011. Regions Financial Corporation has suffered from the recession and the reduced demand for loans. The Company evaluated the near-term prospects of the issuers in relation to the severity and duration of the impairment. Based on that evaluation and the Company's ability and intent to hold those investments for a reasonable period of time sufficient for a forecasted recovery of fair value, the Company does not consider those investments to be other than temporarily impaired at September 30, 2011.
4. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted ASC 820, which, among other things, requires enhanced disclosures about assets and liabilities carried at fair value. ASC 820 establishes a hierarchal disclosure framework associated with the level of observable pricing to be utilized in measuring assets and liabilities at fair value. The three broad levels defined by ASC 820 hierarchy are as follows:
Level 1 – Fair value is based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible to the Company for identical assets or liabilities. These generally provide the most reliable evidence and are used to measure fair value whenever available. The Company’s level 1 assets and liabilities primarily include equity securities that are traded in an active exchange market. Valuations are obtained from readily available pricing sources for market transactions involving identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Fair value is based on significant inputs, other than Level 1 inputs, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability through corroboration with observable market data. Level 2 inputs include quoted market prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, quoted market prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar assets or liabilities and other observable inputs. The Company’s Level 2 assets and liabilities include: fixed maturities (corporate public, most government securities, certain asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities, etc.), certain equity securities, short-term investments and cash equivalents (primarily money market funds). Valuations are generally obtained from third party pricing services for identical or comparable assets or liabilities.
Level 3 – Fair value is based on significant unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. These inputs reflect the Company’s assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The Company’s Level 3 assets and liabilities primarily include certain private fixed maturities. Valuations are determined using valuation methodologies such as discounted cash flow models, other similar techniques and consultation with investment brokers.
The table below presents the balances of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, as of September 30, 2011.

6. Subsequent Events
On November 8, 2011, the Company’s Board of Directors unanimously approved an agreement in principle for a cash out merger transaction with Ameritas Life Insurance Corp., Lincoln, Nebraska, (“Ameritas”) for a total merger consideration of $35,000,000 for all of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock and unexercised options. At the effective time of the merger each share of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock will be canceled and converted into the right to receive approximately $2.31 per share.
On November 3, 2011, Ameritas’ Board of Directors also unanimously approved the merger transaction and merger agreement in principle.
The Company’s Board of Directors has tentatively scheduled a special meeting of shareholders to consider and vote on the Ameritas merger in December 2011.
The finality of the merger is conditioned on significant actions by the Company such as full payment of Bonds Payable in the amount of $1,278,838 and the termination of contractual obligations relating to certain business relationships, including debt cancellation of a loan asset of $1,054,418 included in Other Long-Term Assets on the consolidated balance sheet. Management believes it is probable that the merger transaction will be completed. These changes would reduce assets and liabilities by approximately 8% and 13% respectively.
BNL FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
In this section, we review the consolidated results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 and significant changes in the consolidated financial condition of the Company. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements, notes and selected financial data.
Forward-Looking Statements
All statements, trend analyses and other information contained in this report and elsewhere (such as in filings by us with the Securities and Exchange Commission, press releases, presentations by us or our management or oral statements) relative to markets for our products and trends in our operations or financial results, as well as other statements including words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “plan,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” and other similar expressions, constitute forward-looking statements under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause actual results to be materially different from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. Such factors include, among other things: (i) general economic conditions and other factors, including prevailing interest rate levels and stock and credit market performance which may affect (among other things) our ability to sell our products, our ability to access capital resources and the costs associated therewith, the market value of our investments and the lapse rate and profitability of policies; (ii) world conflict, including but not limited to the war in Afghanistan, which may affect consumers spending trends and priorities; (iii) customer response to new products and marketing initiatives: (iv) mortality, morbidity and other factors which may affect the profitability of our products; (v) changes in the federal income tax laws and regulations which may affect the relative income tax advantages of our products; (vi) regulatory changes or actions, including those relating to regulation of financial services affecting (among other things) bank sales and underwriting of insurance products and regulation of the sale, underwriting and pricing of products; and (vii) the risk factors or uncertainties listed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (viii) The Affordable Health Care for America Act passed in 2010.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At September 30, 2011, the Company had liquid assets of $11,058,031 in cash, money market savings accounts, money market funds, and treasury bills. All of the non-cash liquid assets can readily be converted to cash.
The major components of operating cash flows are premium income and investment income while policy benefits are the most significant cash outflow. During the first nine months of 2011, BNLAC collected $28,644,257 of premiums and annuity deposits (gross before reinsurance) and had consolidated investment income of $599,591. Other sources of cash flow in the first nine months of 2011 were override commissions of $1,935,435 on vision products. The Company paid $22,308,562 of policy benefits in the first nine months of 2011.
The Company's investments are primarily in U.S. Government, Government Agency and other investment grade bonds. We do not hedge our investment income through the use of derivatives.
Other long term investments of $1,054,418 consist of a convertible debenture (“debenture”) loan to EPSI Benefits, Inc. (“EBI”). On July 14, 2008, the Company and EBI, amended the Debenture whereby the monthly principal payments and the maturity date were extended five years. For various business reasons, management of both companies deemed the amendment as advantageous.
Because of the amendment to the debenture, the Company analyzed discounted expected future cash flows and estimated an adjustment in the book value of the Debenture of ($204,582), from $1,357,407 down to $1,152,825 in 2008. In the fourth quarter of 2010, one of the two original EBI shareholders agreed to sell her ownership in EBI to the other shareholder and pursue employment elsewhere. Due to this change in ownership, the Company increased its allowance for credit losses in the amount of $98,407 resulting in a net book value of $1,054,418.
The note is one of several agreements entered into by the Company's subsidiary which expand the business relationship with EBI and its subsidiary, Employer Plan Services, Inc. (EPSI), which provides substantially all of the A&H claims processing and adjudication for the Company's insurance subsidiary, Brokers National Life Assurance Company ("BNLAC").
The Company has been a third party indemnitor through a series of bond indemnity and guarantee agreements totaling approximately $370,000 at July 31, 2011, in conjunction with a marketing agreement with EPSI Benefits Inc. and Employer Plan Services Inc. (EPSI). The purpose of these agreements is to assist EPSI to become licensed in additional states. The Company received a personal guarantee from the owner of EPSI to effectively limit potential liability under the guarantee agreement. With regard to the bond indemnities, the Company will be obligated only if EPSI, EPSI’S parent and its shareholder, who are the primary obligors, were all to become insolvent. Management considers the likelihood of the Company realizing a liability under these agreements to be remote.
We believe liquid assets, along with investment income and premium income will be sufficient to meet our long and short-term liquidity needs. We do not have any current plans to borrow money for operations.
Our insurance operations are conducted through BNLAC. At September 30, 2011, BNLAC had statutory capital and surplus of $17,651,826. BNLAC is required to maintain minimum levels of statutory capital and surplus, which differ from state to state, as a condition to conducting business in those states in which it is licensed. The State of Arkansas, which is the legal domicile of BNLAC, requires a minimum of $2,300,000 in capital and surplus. The highest requirement in any state in which BNLAC is licensed is $5,000,000. Management monitors the minimum capital and surplus requirements to maintain compliance in each state in which it is licensed.
On November 8, 2011, the Company’s Board of Directors unanimously approved an agreement in principle for a cash out merger transaction with Ameritas Life Insurance Corp., Lincoln, Nebraska, (“Ameritas”) for a total merger consideration of $35,000,000 for all of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock and unexercised options. At the effective time of the merger each share of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock will be canceled and converted into the right to receive approximately $2.31 per share.
On November 3, 2011, Ameritas’ Board of Directors also unanimously approved the merger transaction and merger agreement in principle.
The Company’s Board of Directors has tentatively scheduled a special meeting of shareholders to consider and vote on the Ameritas merger in December 2011.
The finality of the merger is conditioned on significant actions by the Company such as full payment of Bonds Payable in the amount of $1,278,838 and the termination of contractual obligations relating to certain business relationships, including debt cancellation of a loan asset of $1,054,418 included in Other Long-Term Assets on the consolidated balance sheet. Management believes it is probable that the merger transaction will be completed.
Consolidated Results of Operations
Premium income for the third quarter of 2011 was $9,485,415 compared to $10,012,944 for the same period in 2010. Premium income for the first three quarters of 2011 was $28,719,085 compared to $30,158,944 for the same period in 2010. The decrease for the quarter (5.3%) and first three quarters of the year (4.6%) was primarily due to a decrease in premium income as a result of the impact of the recession on voluntary employee benefits.
BNLAC markets group vision insurance products that are underwritten by other insurance companies (BNLAC does not have any exposure to underwriting (claims) losses on these products). Vision insurance income for the third quarter of 2011 was $704,330 compared to $618,271 in the third quarter of 2010. In the first three quarters of 2011 vision income was $1,935,435 compared to $1,799,280 for the same period in 2010. Vision insurance premium in force reflected a small increase this year compared to the first three quarters of 2010, resulting in a $136,154 (10.7%) increase in net earned vision income this year.
Net investment income was $187,114 for the third quarter of 2011 compared to $222,280 for the third quarter of 2010. Net investment income for the first three quarters of 2011 was $599,591 compared to $725,502 for the same period in 2010. The decrease in the first three quarters and third quarter was due to the decrease in interest rates on short term investments and long term fixed income securities.
Realized gains on debt retirement were $3,036 for the third quarter of 2011 compared to $0 gain for the same period in 2010. For the first three quarters of 2011 realized gains were $3,360 compared to $4,536 for the same period in 2010. The realized gains are due to the purchase of a portion of the Company’s outstanding debentures at less than face value. Realized gains on debt retirement are directly proportional to the number of bonds purchased.
Realized gains on the sale of investments and fixed assets were $50,293 for the third quarter and $62,479 for the first three quarters of 2011 compared to a loss of ($47,763) for the third quarter and ($64,315) for the first three quarters of 2010. The gains in 2011 were primarily due to the sale of equity securities and the realized loss in 2010 was primarily due to the sale of BP Corporation stock owned by the Company.
For the third quarter of 2011, liability for future policy benefits expense was $16,869 compared to $29,229 for the same period in 2010. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, liability for future policy benefits expense was ($94,760) compared to ($62,377) for the same period in 2010. The decrease in future policy benefits expense in 2011 was primarily due an increase in surrendered policies in 2011 compared to 2010.
Policy benefits and other insurance costs were $7,373,766 in the third quarter of 2011 compared to $7,756,644 for the same period in 2010. In the first nine months of 2011 policy benefits and other insurance costs were $22,308,562 compared to $23,491,663 for the same period in 2010. The decrease for the quarter and first three quarters of 2011 was primarily due to a decrease in group and individual dental premium income. Group dental claims were $894,789 less for the first three quarters of 2011 compared to the same period last year. The claims ratio on group dental insurance, which represents the ratio of claims expensed to premium earned, was 63.62% for the first three quarters of 2011 compared to 63.65% for the first three quarters of 2010. The liability for unpaid claims is difficult to calculate and group dental claims at December, 2010, were $63,000 more than estimated and they were $45,000 less than estimated at December 31, 2009.
Amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs was $5,273 and $5,918 for the third quarter and $10,943 and $11,191 for the first three quarters of 2011 and 2010, respectively. Amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs vary in relation to lapses or surrenders of existing policies.
For the third quarter of 2011 operating expenses were $2,026,022 compared to $1,990,651 for the same period in 2010. Operating expenses were $6,217,134 in the first nine months of 2011 compared to $6,230,574 for the same period in 2010. The increase for the third quarter of 2011 was due to an increase in payroll and independent accounting fees. The decrease for 2011 is primarily due to expenses directly related to the lower amount of business in force.
Taxes, other than on income, fees and assessments, were $326,463 for the third quarter of 2011 compared to $277,047 for the third quarter of 2010. Taxes, other than on income, fees and assessments, were $1,116,676 for the first three quarters of 2011 compared to $1,070,920 for the same period in 2010. The increase for the third quarter and year to date is primarily due to the under accrual of premium taxes at December 31, 2010.
The provision for income taxes in the third quarter of 2011 includes $133,000 current tax expense and $30,000 deferred tax credit compared to $132,260 current tax expense and $20,000 deferred tax expense in the third quarter of 2010. The provision for income taxes in the first three quarters of 2011 was $306,000 current tax expense and $2,000 deferred tax expense compared to $325,260 current expense and $16,000 deferred tax expense for the same period in 2010. The decrease in current tax expense in 2011 is primarily due to the decrease in net income. Deferred tax expense is based on the estimated change in book versus tax assets and liabilities.
Income from operations before income taxes for the third quarter of 2011 was $681,795 compared to $746,243 for the same period in 2010. The decrease in the third quarter of 2011 was primarily due to an increase in operating expenses and a decrease in investment income. For the first three quarters of 2011 income from operations before income taxes was $1,761,395 compared to $1,881,976 for the same period in 2010. The decrease for the first three quarters of 2011 was primarily due to the decrease in premium income and investment income.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market risk represents the potential loss resulting from adverse changes in the value of financial instruments, either derivative or non-derivative, caused by fluctuations in interest rates, foreign exchange rates, commodity prices, and equity security prices. We handle market risks in accordance with our established policies. We did not have financial instruments to manage and reduce the impact of changes in interest rates at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, however we held various financial instruments at September 30, 2011 and 2010, consisting of financial assets reported in our Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Interest Rate Risk - We are subject to interest rate risk through the investment in fixed maturity securities, such as U.S. Government and Government Agency securities and other investment grade bonds. The fair market value of long-term, fixed-interest rate debt is subject to interest rate risk. Generally, the fair value of fixed-interest rate debt will increase as interest rates fall and will decrease as interest rates rise. The estimated fair value of our fixed maturity securities at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 was $13,763,181 and $15,057,111, respectively.
Based on testing at December 31, 2010, a one-percentage point increase in interest rates would result in a decrease in the estimated fair value of fixed maturity securities of $422,000. Initial fair values were determined using the current rates at which we could enter into comparable financial instruments with similar remaining maturities. The estimated earnings and cash flows impact for the first nine months of 2011 resulting from a one percentage point increase in interest rates would be immaterial, holding other variables constant.
Foreign-Exchange Rate Risk - We currently have no exposure to foreign exchange rate risk because all of our financial instruments are denominated in U.S. dollars.
Commodity Price Risk - We have no financial instruments subject to commodity price risk.
Equity Security Price Risk - Equity securities at September 30, 2011 totaled $506,066, or 1.9% of total investments and cash on a consolidated basis.
The preceding discussion of estimated fair value of our financial instruments and the sensitivity analyses resulting from hypothetical changes in interest rates are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements reflect our current expectations and involve uncertainties. These forward-looking market risk disclosures are selective in nature and only address the potential impact from financial instruments. They do not include other potential effects which could impact our business as a result of changes in interest rates, foreign-exchange rates, commodity prices, or equity security prices.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company's reports pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurances of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
Within 90 days prior to the date of this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures, as that term is defined in Rule 13a-14(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer to material information required to be disclosed in the periodic reports filed with the SEC.
In addition, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have reviewed the Company's internal controls, and there have been no significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect those controls subsequent to the date of the last evaluation.
