REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER AND FISCAL 2014 FINANCIAL EARNINGS

Lacey, WA (July 28, 2014) - Anchor Bancorp (NASDAQ: - ANCB) (“Company”), the holding company for Anchor Bank (“Bank”), today reported net income of $298,000 or $0.12 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of its fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 compared to a net loss of $812,000 or $0.33 per diluted share for the same period last year.  For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 the Company reported net income of $423,000 or $0.17 per diluted share compared to a net loss of $255,000 or $0.10 per diluted share for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013.

“Our year-over-year operating results improved as a result of our continued commitment to improving our credit quality.  Through our focused efforts on resolving our problem assets, nonperforming loans decreased $1.5 million and total classified assets decreased $10.7 million from June 30, 2013 to June 30, 2014.  As a result of these declines, we were able to reduce our general loan loss provision by $750,000 for the year ended June 30, 2014 as compared to 2013. In addition, our total noninterest expense decreased $1.6 million from last year as real estate owned related expenses decreased significantly and improving real estate values in our market enabled us to record substantial gains on the sale of real estate owned. Based on our return to profitability we anticipate that continued profitability will enable us to reverse the valuation allowance associated with our deferred tax asset sometime in the next fiscal year", stated Jerald L. Shaw, the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer.

Fiscal Fourth Quarter Highlights (at or for the period ended June 30, 2014, compared to March 31, 2014, or June 30, 2013):

•  
Total classified loans decreased $10.7 million or 61.8% to $6.6 million at June 30, 2014 from $17.3 million at June 30, 2013 and were $9.7 million at March 31, 2014;
•  
Total delinquent loans (past due 30 days or more) decreased $2.7 million or 26.5% to $7.5 million at June 30, 2014 from $10.2 million at June 30, 2013;
•  
Total nonperforming loans decreased by $1.5 million or 24.2% to $4.7 million at June 30, 2014 from $6.2 million at June 30, 2013; and
•  
No provision for loan losses was recorded for the quarter and year ended June 30, 2014 or for the quarter ended June 30, 2013.

Credit Quality

Total delinquent loans (past due 30 days or more), decreased $2.7 million, or 26.5% to $7.5 million at June 30, 2014 from $10.2 million at June 30, 2013.  The ratio of nonperforming loans, which includes nonaccrual loans and loans which are 90 days or more past due, to total loans decreased to 1.6% at June 30, 2014 from 2.2% at June 30, 2013. The continuing steady  improvement in our asset quality has enabled the Company to not record a provision for loan losses since March 31, 2013. The allowance for loan losses of $4.6 million at June 30, 2014 represented 1.6% of loans receivable and 98.1% of nonperforming loans compared to an allowance of $5.1 million at June 30, 2013, representing 1.8% of loans receivable and 83.6% of nonperforming loans.

We continue to restructure our delinquent loans, when appropriate, so our borrowers can continue to make payments while minimizing the Company's potential loss.  As of June 30, 2014, March 31, 2014, and June 30, 2013 there were 45, 47, and 48 loans, respectively, with aggregate net principal balances of $11.3 million, $13.5 million, and $17.5 million, respectively, that we have identified as “troubled debt restructures.”  At June 30, 2014, March 31, 2014, December 31, 2013, and June 30, 2013 there were $2.2 million, $1.8 million, $1.7 million, and $3.6 million, respectively, of “troubled debt restructures” included in the nonperforming loans above. 

As of June 30, 2014, the Company had 20 real estate owned ("REO") properties with an aggregate book value of $5.1 million compared to19 properties with an aggregate book value of $5.5 million at March 31, 2014 and 21 properties with an aggregate book value of $6.2 million at June 30, 2013.  The decrease in number of properties during the year ended June 30, 2014 was primarily attributable to ongoing sales of residential properties.  During the quarter ended June 30, 2014, the Company sold one commercial real estate property for $1.3 million, four residential real estate properties for $478,000 and three land parcels for $48,000 resulting in an aggregate gain on sale of $364,000.  At June 30, 2014, the largest of the REO properties was a commercial real estate property totaling $3.4 million located in Pierce County, Washington.

Anchor Bancorp exceeded all regulatory capital requirements with Tier 1 Leverage-Based Capital, Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital and Total Risk-Based Capital ratios of 14.0%, 17.1%, and 18.3% as of June 30, 2014.  As of June 30, 2013, these ratios were 11.7%, 17.2% and 18.4%, respectively.

Balance Sheet Review

Total assets decreased by $63.1 million, or 14.0%, to $389.1 million at June 30, 2014 from $452.2 million at June 30, 2013. Cash and cash equivalents decreased $50.6 million or 77.4% as we used our excess cash to repay $47.4 million of maturing FHLB advances. Securities available-for-sale and held-to-maturity decreased $9.4 million, or 19.4% and $1.5 million, or 14.9%, respectively. The decreases in securities were primarily the result of contractual principal repayments.

Loans receivable, net, increased $4.0 million or 1.5% to $281.5 million at June 30, 2014 from $277.5 million at June 30, 2013 as a result of new loan production exceeding principal reductions. Construction and land loans increased $12.8 million, net or 117.1% to $23.8 million at June 30, 2014 from $11.0 million at June 30, 2013. Of that increase $9.9 million is related to hotel. The residual increases are commercial real estate properties. Multi-family loans increased $9.1 million or 23.6% to $47.5 million at June 30, 2014 from $38.4 million at June 30, 2013.  Commercial real estate loans increased $969,000 or 0.9% to $107.8 million at June 30, 2014 from $106.9 million at June 30, 2013. Partially offsetting these increases, one-to-four family loans decreased $10.9 million or 14.7% to $63.0 million from $73.9 million at June 30, 2013 and commercial business loans decreased $1.5 million or 8.1% to $16.7 million at June 30, 2014 from $18.2 million at June 30, 2013.  In addition, consumer loans decreased $6.8 million or 19.3% to $28.3 million at June 30, 2014 from $35.1 million at June 30, 2013 as consumers continue to reduce their debt. The demand for loans in our market area has been modest during the current economic recovery.

Total stockholders' equity increased $1.3 million or 2.5% to $53.7 million at June 30, 2014 from $52.4 million at June 30, 2013. The increase was primarily due to the $761,000 decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss representing a decline in our unrealized losses on securities available-for-sale and our net income of $423,000 for year the ended June 30, 2014.

Operating Results

Net interest income. Net interest income before the provision for loan losses increased $291,000, or 9.2%, to $3.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 from $3.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2013.  For the year ended June 30, 2014, net interest income before the provision for loan losses decreased $855,000 or 5.7% to $14.1 million from $15.0 million for fiscal 2013. Average loans receivable, net, for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 decreased $6.0 million or 2.1% to $282.2 million from $288.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2013.  For the year ended June 30, 2014, average loans receivable, net, decreased $9.7 million or 3.3% to $282.6 million from $292.3 million for the year ended June 30, 2013.

The Company's net interest margin increased 90 basis points to 3.93% for the fourth quarter ended June 30, 2014 from 3.03% for the comparable period in 2013.  The yield on mortgage-backed securities increased to 1.88% from 0.64% for the same period in the prior year. The average yield on interest-earning assets increased 82 basis points to 4.91% from 4.09% for the quarters ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.  The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased four basis points to 1.19% for the fourth quarter ended June 30, 2014 compared to 1.23% for the same period in the prior year. For the year ended June 30, 2014, the Company's net interest margin increased 34 basis points to 3.87% compared to 3.53% for the year ended June 30, 2013.  The improvement in our net interest margin compared to the same quarter last year and a year ago reflects a significant reduction in the adverse effect of nonperforming assets and reductions in the cost of deposits and Federal Home Loan Bank  ("FHLB") advances. The average yield on interest-earning assets increased 22 basis points to 4.88% for the year ended June 30, 2014 compared to 4.66% for the same period in the prior year. The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 10 basis points to 1.20% for the year ended June 30, 2014 compared to 1.30% for the same period of the prior year reflecting the low interest rate environment that has persisted throughout the year.

Provision for loan losses. In connection with its analysis of the loan portfolio at June 30, 2014, management determined that no provision for loan losses was required for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 and there was no provision for the same period of the prior year.  There was no provision for loan losses for the year ended June 30, 2014 compared to $750,000 for last year, reflecting the decline in the amount of our nonperforming loans during the year.

Noninterest income. Noninterest income decreased $149,000, or 13.0%, to $1.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 compared to $1.1 million for the same quarter a year ago. The decrease in noninterest income was primarily attributable to the $99,000 or 49.7% decrease in other income from $199,000 and to no gain on sales of investments in the quarter ended June 30, 2014 compared to $70,000 for the same quarter a year ago.  Noninterest income decreased $849,000 or 17.2% to $4.1 million during the year ended June 30, 2014 compared to $4.9 million for the same period in 2013 primarily due to a $436,000 decline in gain on sales of loans and a $237,000 decline in other income due to the decrease in interest rate lock fees reflecting the decline in loan sales.

Noninterest expense. Noninterest expense decreased $968,000, or 18.9%, to $4.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 from $5.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2013. The decrease was primarily due to a gain on sale of REO property increasing $343,000 or 1,633.3% to $364,000 from $21,000 and REO impairment expense declining $528,000 or 77.0% to $158,000 from $686,000.  Noninterest expense decreased $1.6 million or 8.4% in the year ended June 30, 2014 to $17.8 million from $19.4 million for the year ended June 30, 2013.  The decrease was due to a decrease in REO impairment expense of $397,000 and an increase of $313,000 in the gain on sale of REO as compared to the same period in 2013, reflecting the stabilization in the real estate market.  Also contributing to the decrease was a decline in occupancy and equipment and compensation and benefits expenses which decreased $349,000 and $341,000, respectively, from the previous year. The decreases reflect the realized savings from the closure of one Wal-Mart branch and one leased branch.
