SUNSHINE FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

1.         Organization and Basis of Presentation
 
Sunshine Financial, Inc. ("Sunshine Financial" or the "Holding Company"), a Maryland corporation, is the holding company for Sunshine Savings Bank (the "Bank") (collectively the "Company") and owns all the outstanding common stock of the Bank.

 
 
The Holding Company's only business is the operation of the Bank.  The Bank through its six banking offices provides a variety of retail community banking services to individuals and businesses primarily in Leon County, Florida. The Bank's deposits are insured up to the applicable limits by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Bank's subsidiary is Sunshine Member Insurance Services, Inc., which was established to sell automobile warranty, credit life and disability insurance products associated with loan products.

 
 
These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 8-03 of Regulation S-X and do not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for a complete presentation of the Company's consolidated financial condition and consolidated results of operations.

 
 
In the opinion of management, the information reflects all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which are necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading and for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position and consolidated results of operations for the periods presented have been included.  Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.  These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, as filed with the SEC on March 31, 2014 (“2013 Form 10-K”). The results for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2014 should not be considered as indicative of results for a full year.

2.         Recent Accounting Standards Update
 
In January 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-04, Receivables-Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40): Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure, which is intended to clarify when a creditor should be considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan such that the loan should be derecognized and the real estate recognized. These amendments clarify that an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs, and a creditor is considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan, upon either: (a) the creditor obtaining legal title to the residential real estate property upon completion of a foreclosure; or (b) the borrower conveying all interest in the residential real estate property to the creditor to satisfy that loan through completion of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or through a similar legal agreement. Additional disclosures are required. The ASU is effective beginning January 1, 2015.  The adoption of ASU 2014-04 is not expected to impact the Company's consolidated financial statements.

2.         Recent Accounting Standards Update, Continued
 
In June 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-11, Transfers and Servicing - Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosures. ASU 2014-11 requires, among other things, two accounting changes. First, the amendments in this update change the accounting for repurchase-to-maturity transactions to secured borrowing accounting. Second, for repurchase financing arrangements, the amendments require separate accounting for a transfer of a financial asset executed contemporaneously with a repurchase agreement with the same counterparty, which will result in secured borrowing accounting for the repurchase agreement. ASU 2014-11 is effective for the first interim or annual period beginning after December 15, 2014. The adoption of this ASU guidance is not expected to have any impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

 
 
In June 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-12, Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period.  ASU 2014-12 requires, among other things, that a performance target that affects vesting and could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. As such, the performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant-date fair value of the award. ASU 2014-12 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this ASU guidance is not expected to have any impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

The amendments in this ASU require that a mortgage loan be derecognized and that a separate other receivable be recognized upon foreclosure if the following conditions are met: (1) the loan has a government guarantee that is not separable from the loan before foreclosure; (2) at the time of foreclosure, the creditor has the intent to convey the real estate property to the guarantor and make a claim of the guarantee, and the creditor has the ability to recover under that claim; and (3) at the time of foreclosure, any amount of the claim that is determined on the basis of the fair value of the real estate is fixed. Upon foreclosure, the separate other receivable should be measured based on the amount of the loan balance (principal and interest) expected to be recovered from the guarantor. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. The adoption of ASU No. 2014-14 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
 
 
Recent Regulatory Developments
 
Basel III Legislation.  On July 2, 2013, the Federal Reserve Board ("FRB") approved the final rules implementing the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision's capital guidelines for U.S. banks. Under the final rules, minimum requirements will increase for both the quantity and quality of capital held by the Bank. The rules include a new common equity Tier I capital to risk-weighted assets ratio of 4.5% and a common equity Tier 1 capital conservation buffer of 2.5% of risk-weighted assets. The final rules also raise the minimum ratio of Tier I capital to risk-weighted assets from 4.0% to 6.0% and require a minimum leverage ratio of 4.0%. The final rules also implement strict eligibility criteria for regulatory capital instruments. In July 2013, the federal regulators approved, as an interim final rule, the regulatory capital requirements for U.S. banks, following the actions of the FRB. The federal regulators rules are identical in substance to the final rules issued by the FRB.

 
 
The phase-in period for the final rules will begin for the Company on January 1, 2015, with full compliance with all of the final rule's requirements phased in over a multi-year schedule. We are currently evaluating the provisions of the final rules and their expected impact on us.

3.           Earnings Per Share
 
Earnings per share ("EPS") has been computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding.  For the three- and nine- months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, the outstanding stock options were considered dilutive securities for purposes of calculating diluted EPS which was computed using the treasury stock method.  The shares purchased by the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the "ESOP") are included in the weighted-average shares when they are committed to be released ($ in thousands, except per share amounts):

The unrealized losses on twenty-one securities are considered by management to be attributable to changes in market interest rates, and not attributable to credit risk on the part of the issuer. Accordingly, if market rates were to decline, much or all of the decline in market value would likely be recovered through market appreciation. As management has the ability and intent to hold debt securities until maturity, or for the foreseeable future, no declines in the fair value below amortized cost are deemed to be other than temporary.

5.           Loans, Continued
 
The Company has divided the loan portfolio into three portfolio segments and ten classes, each with different risk characteristics and methodologies for assessing risk. The portfolio segments identified by the Company are as follows:

Real Estate Mortgage Loans.  Real estate mortgage loans are loans comprised of four classes: One- to four-family, Lot, Commercial real estate and Construction loans. The Company generally originates one- to four-family mortgage loans in amounts up to 80% of the lesser of the appraised value or purchase price of a mortgaged property, but will also permit loan-to-value ratios of up to 95%. For one- to four-family loans exceeding an 80% loan-to-value ratio, the Company generally requires the borrower to obtain private mortgage insurance covering any loss on the amount of the loan in excess of 80% in the event of foreclosure. The Company also makes loans for the purchase of developed lots for future construction of the borrower's primary residence.  The Company generally originates lot loans in an amount up to 75% of the lower of the purchase price or appraisal and have a maximum amortization of up to 20 years and maturities up to 20 years. Commercial real estate loans are generally originated at 75% or less loan-to-value ratio and have amortization terms of up to 20 years and maturities of up to ten years.  Construction loans to borrowers are to finance the construction of one- to four-family, owner occupied properties. These loans are categorized as construction loans during the construction period, later converting to residential real estate loans after the construction is complete and amortization of the loan begins. Real estate construction loan funds are disbursed periodically based on the percentage of construction completed.  If the estimate of construction cost proves to be inaccurate, the Company may be compelled to advance additional funds to complete the construction with repayment dependent, in part, on the success of the ultimate project rather than the ability of a borrower to repay the loan.  The Company carefully monitors these loans with on-site inspections and requires the receipt of lien waivers on funds advanced. Construction loans are typically secured by the properties under construction. Construction and lot loan lending is generally considered to involve a higher degree of credit risk than long-term permanent financing of residential properties.

Commercial Loans.  Commercial loans are comprised of unsecured loans.  The Company offers unsecured commercial loans generally to its commercial real estate borrowers.

Consumer Loans.  Consumer loans are comprised of five classes: Home Equity, Automobile, Credit cards and unsecured, Deposit account and Other.  The Company offers a variety of secured consumer loans, including home equity, new and used automobile, boat and other recreational vehicle loans, and loans secured by deposit accounts.  The Company also offers unsecured consumer loans including a credit card product.  The Company originates its consumer loans primarily in its market area.  Repayment of these loans is primarily dependent on the personal income of the borrowers, which can be impacted by economic conditions in their market areas such as unemployment levels. Loans to consumers are extended after a credit evaluation, including the creditworthiness of the borrower(s), the purpose of the credit, and the secondary source of repayment. Consumer loans are made at fixed and variable interest rates and may be made on terms of up to twenty years. Risk is mitigated by the fact that the loans are of smaller individual amounts and spread over a large number of borrowers.

Internally assigned loan grades are defined as follows:

 
Pass – A Pass loan's primary source of loan repayment is satisfactory, with secondary sources very likely to be realized if necessary.

 
Special Mention – A Special Mention loan has potential weaknesses that deserve management's close attention.  If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in the deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or the Company's credit position at some future date.  Special Mention loans are not adversely classified and do not expose an institution to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification.

 
Substandard – A Substandard loan is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any.  Loans so classified must have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

 
Doubtful – A loan classified Doubtful has all the weaknesses inherent in one classified Substandard with the added characteristics that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.

Loss – A loan classified Loss is considered uncollectible and of such little value that continuance as a bankable asset is not warranted.  This classification does not mean that the asset has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but rather it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off this basically worthless asset even though partial recovery may be affected in the future.

The fair value of each option granted is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions for 2014:

   
2014
 
       
Risk-free interest rate
    2.22 %
Dividend yield
    -  
Expected stock volatility
    9.92 %
Expected life in years
    6.5  
Per share grant-date fair value of options issued
       
    during the period
  $ 3.19  

 
The Plan also authorized the grant of up to 49,378 restricted common shares.  The restricted shares awarded vest equally over five years from the date of grant. Restricted shares are forfeited if employment is terminated before the restriction period expires.  The record holder of the Company's restricted shares of common stock possesses all the rights of a holder of the Company's common stock, including the right to receive dividends on and to vote the restricted shares. The restricted shares may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, encumbered, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated until they become fully vested and transferable in accordance with the agreements. Compensation expense for restricted stock totaled $36,000 and $83,000 for the three- and nine-months ended September 30, 2014, respectively. Compensation expense for restricted stock totaled $24,000 for the three- and nine-months ended September 30, 2013.  The Company recognized a tax benefit of $14,000 and $31,000 for the three- and nine- months ended September 30, 2014.  The Company recognized a tax benefit of $9,000 for the three- and nine- months ended September 30, 2013.

·
legislative or regulatory changes that adversely affect our business including the effect of the Dodd-Frank Act, changes in regulatory policies and principles, or the interpretation of regulatory capital or other rules, including as a result of Basel III;

General

Sunshine Financial is the holding company for its wholly owned subsidiary, Sunshine Savings Bank. Sunshine Savings Bank was originally chartered as a credit union in 1952 as Sunshine State Credit Union to serve state government employees in the metropolitan Tallahassee area.  On July 1, 2007, we converted from a state-chartered credit union known as Sunshine State Credit Union to a federal mutual savings bank known as Sunshine Savings Bank, and in 2009 reorganized into the non-stock mutual holding company structure.  On April 5, 2011, Sunshine Financial completed a public offering as part of Sunshine Saving Bank's conversion and reorganization from a non-stock mutual holding company to a stock holding company structure.  References to we, us and our throughout this document refer to Sunshine Financial and Sunshine Savings Bank, as the context requires.

We currently operate out of six full-service branch offices serving the Tallahassee, Florida metropolitan area.  Our principal business consists of attracting retail deposits from the general public and investing those funds in loans secured by first and second mortgages on one- to four-family residences, commercial real estate, home equity loans and lines of credit, lot loans, and direct automobile, credit card and other consumer loans.

We offer a variety of deposit accounts, which are our primary source of funding for our lending activities.  Our operations are significantly affected by prevailing economic conditions as well as government policies and regulations concerning, among other things, monetary and fiscal affairs, housing and financial institutions.  Deposit flows are influenced by a number of factors, including interest rates paid on competing time deposits, other investments, account maturities, and the overall level of personal income and savings.  Lending activities are influenced by the demand for funds, the number and quality of lenders, and regional economic cycles.  Sources of funds for lending activities include primarily deposits, borrowings, payments on loans and income provided from operations.
 
Sunshine Financial is regulated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve") and Sunshine Savings Bank is regulated by the OCC and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC").

Critical Accounting Policies

There have been no material changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Off-Balance-Sheet Financial Instruments

The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers.  These financial instruments are unused lines of credit and commitments to extend credit and may involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest-rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheets.  The contract amounts of these instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Company has in these financial instruments.

The Company's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for unused lines of credit and commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments.  The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract.  Commitments generally have fixed-expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee.  Since some of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.  The Company evaluates each customer's credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis.  The amount of collateral obtained if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit is based on management's credit evaluation of the counterparty.

Unused lines of credit and commitments to extend credit typically result in loans with a market interest rate when funded.  A summary of the amounts of the Company's financial instruments, with off-balance-sheet risk follows at September 30, 2014 (in thousands):

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity describes our ability to meet the financial obligations that arise in the ordinary course of business.  Liquidity is primarily needed to meet the borrowing and deposit withdrawal requirements of our customers and to fund current and planned expenditures.  Our primary sources of funds are deposits, principal and interest payments on loans and securities, and proceeds from maturities and calls of securities.  We also have the ability to borrow from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta.  At September 30, 2014, we had the capacity to borrow approximately $14.8 million from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta.  We also have lines of credit at one financial institution that would allow us to borrow up to $2.5 million at September 30, 2014.

While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and securities are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions, and competition. Our most liquid assets are cash and short-term investments including interest-bearing demand deposits. The levels of these assets are dependent on our operating, financing, lending and investing activities during any given period.

Our cash flows are comprised of three primary classifications: cash flows from operating activities, investing activities, and financing activities.  Net cash provided by operating activities was $0.5 million and $2.0 million for the nine-months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Net cash used in investing activities, which consists primarily of disbursements for loan originations and the purchase of securities, offset by principal collections on loans and proceeds from pay-downs on securities, was $7.0 million and $1.8 million for nine-months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.  During the nine-months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, we purchased $3.9 million and $5.5 million, respectively, in securities held to maturity.  Net cash provided by financing activities, consisting primarily of the activity in deposit accounts, was $2.6 million for the nine-months ended September 30, 2014 and $1.7 million for the nine-months ended September 30, 2013.

We are committed to maintaining a strong liquidity position.  We monitor our liquidity position on a daily basis.  We anticipate that we will have sufficient funds to meet our current funding commitments.  Based on our deposit retention experience and current pricing strategy, we anticipate that a significant portion of maturing time deposits will be retained.

At September 30, 2014, the Bank exceeded all regulatory capital requirements with a Tier 1 leverage capital level of 12.46% of adjusted total assets, which is above the required level of 5.00%; Tier I capital to risk-weighted assets of 18.87% of risk-weighted assets, which is above the required level of 6% and total risk-based capital of 20.05% of risk-weighted assets, which is above the required level of 10.00%.  Accordingly, the Bank was categorized as well-capitalized at September 30, 2014.  Management is not aware of any conditions or events since the most recent notification that would change our category. For additional information see Note 10 of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in “Item 1, Financial Statements.”

Comparison of Financial Condition at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013

 
General.  Total assets increased $3.1 million, or 2.1%, to $149.6 million at September 30, 2014 from $146.5 million at December 31, 2013. The increase in total assets was due primarily to increases in net loans and securities held to maturity partially offset by reductions in cash and cash equivalents.  Our net loans increased $7.0 million, or 7.3%, and securities held to maturity increased $0.6 million, or 2.2%, since December 31, 2013.  The net increase in assets was funded primarily by a $3.0 million, or 2.5%, increase in deposits from December 31, 2013 to September 30, 2014.
 
Loans.  Our net loan portfolio increased $7.0 million, to $102.4 million at September 30, 2014 from $95.5 million at December 31, 2013.  The increase in loans was due to a $7.9 million, or 43.8%, increase in commercial real estate loans, a $1.1 million increase in single family construction loans, as well as a $0.3 million increase in commercial business loans, which is consistent with our strategy to originate commercial loans and to diversify our portfolio.  The increases in the aforementioned loans were partially offset by a $1.2 million decrease in one- to four-family loans, a $0.8 million decrease in lot loans, and a $1.8 million decrease in consumer loans.  We originate and sell one- to four-family real estate mortgage loans to Freddie Mac and Crescent Mortgage to generate additional income.  For the nine-months ended September 30, 2014, we originated $4.6 million of one- to four-family mortgage loans for sale, and $4.3 million were sold at a gain on sale of $113,000.
 
Allowance for Loan Losses.  Our allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2014 was $1.1 million, or 1.12% of loans, compared to $1.3 million, or 1.34% of loans, at December 31, 2013.  Nonperforming loans increased to $1.7 million at September 30, 2014 from $1.3 million at December 31, 2013 primarily due to an increase of three one- to four- family real estate loans.  Nonperforming loans to loans increased to 1.69% at September 30, 2014 from 1.35% at December 31, 2013.  Loans on nonaccrual which were less than ninety days past due totaled $291,000 at September 30, 2014 compared to $457,000 million at December 31, 2013.
 
Deposits.  Total deposits increased $3.0 million, or 2.4%, to $125.1 million at September 30, 2014 from $122.1 million at December 31, 2013.  This increase was due to increases in noninterest bearing deposits, money market accounts and savings accounts, partially offset by decreases in time deposits.
 
Equity.  Total stockholders' equity decreased $246,000 to $23.5 million at September 30, 2014.  This decrease was primarily due to the repurchase of 20,944 shares of common stock at an average price of $18.29 per share for a total cost of $383,000 during the nine-months ended September 30, 2014, which were partially offset by stock-based compensation of $120,000 and net earnings of $8,000.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended September 30, 2014 and 2013

 
General. Net earnings for the three months ended September 30, 2014 was $62,000 compared to net earnings of $46,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, resulting in an annualized return on average assets of 0.17% for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 0.12% for the three months ended September 30, 2013.  The increase in net earnings was due primarily to an increase in net interest income, and a decrease in the provision for loan loss, partially offset by a decrease in noninterest income and an increase in our noninterest expenses.
 
Net Interest Income.  Net interest income increased $82,000, or 6.2%, to $1.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014 from $1.3 million for the same period in 2013, primarily due to the $9.8 million increase in average balance of securities held to maturity earning an average yield of 2.08% and a $5.7 million increase in the average balance of loans earning an average yield of 5.38%, partially offset by a $15.7 million decrease in average other interest-earning assets earning an average yield of 0.27%and a 17 basis point decline in the average yield on loans.  Our average cost of funds declined to 0.38% for the period ended September 30, 2014, from 0.40% for the same period in 2013.  Our net interest rate spread increased to 4.04% for the three months ended September 30, 2014 from 3.79% for the same period in 2013, while our net interest margin increased to 4.14% at September 30, 2014 from 3.89% at September 30, 2013.  The ratio of average interest-earning assets to average interest-bearing liabilities for the three months ended September 30, 2014 decreased to 1.35x, from 1.36x for the three months ended September 30, 2013.
 
Interest Income. Interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2014 increased $77,000, or 5.4%, to $1.5 million from $1.4 million for the same period ended September 30, 2013.  The increase in interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2014 was primarily due to higher average balances of securities held to maturity and loans receivable, partially offset by lower yields earned on loans.  The average balance of securities held to maturity increased to $27.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014 compared to $18.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013.  The average balance of loans increased to $100.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014 compared to $94.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013.  The average yield on loans decreased to 5.38% for the three months ended September 30, 2014 compared to 5.55% for the three months ended September 30, 2013.
 
Interest Expense. Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2014 was $95,000 compared to $100,000 for the same period in 2013, a decrease of $5,000 or 5.0%.  The decrease was primarily the result of decreases in both the average balance and the average rate paid on time deposits, partially offset by an increase the average balance of lower costing money market and savings accounts.  The average balance of time deposits decreased $3.3 million to $27.1 million for the three month period ended September 30, 2014 from $30.4 million for the same period in 2013 and the average rate paid on time deposits decreased to 0.50% from 0.51%, respectively. The average balance of money market and savings accounts increased $3.8 million to $73.4 million for the three month period ended September 30, 2014 from $69.7 million for the same period in 2013 and the average rate paid on these deposits decreased to 0.33% from 0.35%, respectively.  The total cost of funds for the three months ended September 30, 2014 decreased to 0.38% from 0.40% for the three months ended September 30, 2013.
 
Provision for Loan Losses.  We recorded no provision for loan losses for the three months ended September 30, 2014 compared to a $50,000 provision for the three months ended September 30, 2013.  The provision for loan losses reflected historical and expected future loan losses. Net charge-offs for the three months ended September 30, 2014 were $24,000 compared to a net charge-offs of $98,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013. Nonperforming loans to net loans at September 30, 2014 was 1.69% compared to 1.67% at September 30, 2013.  The allowance for loan losses to net loans was 1.12% at September 30, 2014 compared to 1.34% at December 31, 2013 and 1.49% at September 30, 2013.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, Continued

Management considers the allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2014 to be adequate to cover losses inherent in the loan portfolio based on the assessment of the above-mentioned factors affecting the loan portfolio. While management believes the estimates and assumptions used in its determination of the adequacy of the allowance are reasonable, there can be no assurance that such estimates and assumptions will not be proven incorrect in the future, or that the actual amount of future losses will not exceed the amount of the established allowance for loan losses or that any increased allowance for loan losses that may be required will not adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the determination of the amount of our allowance for loan losses is subject to review by bank regulators, as part of the routine examination process, which may result in additions to our provision for loan losses based upon their judgment of information available to them at the time of their examination.

Noninterest Income. Noninterest income for the three months ended September 30, 2014 decreased $82,000, or 13.6%, to $519,000 compared to $601,000 for the same period in 2013. The gain on sale of foreclosed real estate decreased $77,000 and fees and service charges on deposit accounts decreased $53,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2014, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2013.  There was a $49,000 gain on sale of foreclosed real estate during the three months ended September 30, 2014 compared to a gain of $126,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013.  The primary cause for a decrease in fees and service charges on deposit accounts was a decrease in income from non-sufficient fund charges and debit card interchange fee income.  These decreases in noninterest income were offset somewhat by a $48,000 increase in gain on the sale of loans as these volumes increased over the same time period in 2013.

Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2014 increased $34,000, or 1.9%, to $1,833,000 compared to $1,799,000 for the same period in 2013.  The largest increase was in salaries and employee benefits while the largest decrease was foreclosed real estate expense.  The increase in salaries and employee benefits was due to restricted stock award costs in 2014.  The decrease in foreclosed assets expense was primarily due to decreases in the volume of foreclosures during the three months ended September 30, 2014 and related costs and write-downs as compared to the same period last year.

Income Taxes. For the three months ended September 30, 2014, we recorded income taxes of $26,000 on earnings before income taxes of $88,000.  For the three months ended September 30, 2013, we recorded income taxes of $26,000 on earnings before income taxes of $72,000.  Our effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2014 was 29.6% compared to 36.1% for the same time period in 2013.

General.  Net earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was $8,000 compared to net earnings of $401,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, resulting in an annualized return on average assets of 0.01% for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 0.36 % for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.  The decrease in net earnings was due primarily to a decrease in noninterest income, an increase in our provision for loan loss, partially offset by a decrease in noninterest expense and an increase in net interest income.
 
Net Interest Income.  Net interest income increased $115,000, or 2.9%, to $ 4.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 from $4.0 million for the same period in 2013, primarily due to the $12.6 million increase in average balance of securities held to maturity earning an average yield of 2.12% and a  $3.5 million increase in the average balance of loans earning an average yield of 5.35%, partially offset bythe $16.8 million decrease in the average balance of other interest-earning assets earning an average yield of 0.27% and a 32 basis point decline in the average yield on loans.  Our average cost of funds declined to 0.37% for the nine month period ended September 30, 2014, from 0.42% for the same period in 2013.  Our net interest rate spread increased to 3.97% for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 from 3.82% for the same period in 2013, while our net interest margin increased to 4.06% at September 30, 2014 from 3.93% at September 30, 2013.  The ratio of average interest-earning assets to average interest-bearing liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 decreased to 1.34, from 1.37 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.
 
Interest Income. Interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 increased $88,000, or 2.0%, to $4,396,000 from $4,308,000 for the same period ended September 30, 2013.  The increase in interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was primarily due to a higher average balance of securities held to maturity and loans, partially offset by lower rates on loans.  The average balance of securities held to maturity increased to $28.4 million for the nine  months ended September 30, 2014 compared to $15.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.  The average balance of loans increased to $97.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to $94.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The average rate on loans decreased to 5.35% for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to 5.67% for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.
 
Interest Expense. Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was $282,000 compared to $309,000 for the same period in 2013, a decrease of $27,000 or 8.7%.  The decrease was primarily the result of a decrease in both the average balance and the average rate paid on time deposits.  The average balance of time deposits decreased to $27.6 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2014 from $30.6 million for the same period in 2013 and the average rate paid on time deposit decreased to 0.48% from 0.54%. This decrease was partially offset by a $4.1 million increase the average balance of lower costing money market and savings accounts The total average cost of funds for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 decreased to 0.37% from 0.42% for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.
 
Provision for Loan Losses.  We recorded provision for loan losses of $100,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and $2,000 for the same period in 2013 due to higher loan balances and higher net charged off loans.  Net charge-offs for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 were $252,000 compared to $131,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

Comparison of the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, Continued

 
Noninterest Income. Noninterest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 decreased $872,000, or 37.5%, to $1.5 million compared to $2.3 million for the same period in 2013.  The gain on sale of loans decreased $288,000, other income decreased $139,000, the gain on sale of foreclosed assets decreased $252,000  and fees and service charges on deposit accounts decreased $188,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2013.   The primary cause for the decrease in the gain on sale of loans was the initial recording of a mortgage servicing asset for loans serviced for FHLMC in June 2013 and decreases in the volume of loans sold to FHLMC due to an increase in mortgage interest rates which reduced refinancing activity in 2014.  Gain on the sale of foreclosed real estate decreased $252,000 as there were only two sales during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 due to the reduction in real estate owned. Other income decreased $139,000 due to a one time recovery of a previously written off asset during the nine months ended September 30, 2013. Fees and service charges on deposit accounts also decreased $188,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2013.  The primary cause for the decrease in fees from deposit accounts was a decrease in income from non-sufficient fund charges and debit card interchange fee income.
 
Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was $5.5 million compared to $5.7 million for the same period in 2013, a decrease of $206,000 or 3.6%.  The largest decrease occurred in professional fees which decreased $146,000, or 26.6%, to $403,000 compared to $549,000 for the same period in 2013.  The decrease in professional fees expense was due to a decrease in legal fees associated with foreclosed real estate.  In addition, foreclosed real estate expense decreased $131,000 due to a lower number of foreclosures.
 
Income Taxes. For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we recorded an income tax benefit of $3,000 on earnings before income tax benefit of $5,000 due to stock based compensation expense.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we recorded income taxes of $253,000 on earnings before income taxes of $654,000.  Our effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was (60.0)% compared to 38.7% for the same time period in 2013.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

The Company provided information about market risk in Item 7A of its 2013 Form 10-K.  There have been no material changes in our market risk since our 2013 Form 10-K.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

An evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Act")) as of September 30, 2014, was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and several other members of the Company's senior management. The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures in effect as of September 30, 2014, were effective in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Act is: (i) accumulated and communicated to the Company's management (including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer) in a timely manner and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms.

In addition, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Act) that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2014, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

The Company does not expect that its disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting will prevent all error and all fraud. A control procedure, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control procedure are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control procedures, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls may be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by override of the control. The design of any control procedure also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control procedure, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
