SET APART
As we look back on the events of 2011, we clearly see that Stewardship Financial Corporation and Atlantic Stewardship Bank are set apart from other financial institutions. What truly sets us apart is our corporate mission and our purpose of serving the financial needs of the northern New Jersey community, while giving back, or tithing, ten percent of our earnings to Christian and local nonprofit organizations.
OUR MISSION
The Atlantic Stewardship Bank was established to serve the northern New Jersey community’s financial needs and to give back, or tithe, one-tenth of our earnings to the community.
We are a confident and progressive institution that meets business and individual banking deposit and borrowing needs. We understand the value of each and every customer and make it a priority to treat each customer fairly and with respect. By investing prudently, we safeguard assets, provide ample capital growth, and recognize our shareholders with a proper return. As a responsible and accountable employer, we cultivate a caring, professional environment where our associates can be productive and are encouraged to grow.
We are an independent commercial bank that stands on solid Christian principles, and the American banking regulations established by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, and the State of New Jersey. We hold these fundamentals paramount in every decision we make; for the good of our customers, our shareholders, and our associates.
Know that the LORD has set apart his faithful servant for himself;
the LORD hears when I call to him.
– PSALM 4 : 3

MESSAGE TO THE SHAREHOLDERS
Dear Shareholders and Friends:
SET APART. What sets Stewardship Financial Corporation apart from other financial institutions? First, a commitment to our Christian mission of tithing and second, our dedication to shareholders by maintaining solid capital levels that provide the foundation for a strong organization. We also recognize that the needs of our commercial and consumer customers are changing rapidly and we are committed to anticipating their needs through a proactive plan to develop and release new, innovative products and services. We believe that these financial products and services will help our customersto succeed in the present environment and beyond.
We are also cognizant of the fact that small business lending is a driving factor of our current economy. In 2011, we were pleased to have the opportunity to participate in the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s (the “Treasury”) Small Business Lending Fund (SBLF). The SBLF is a voluntary capital program available only to healthy community banks and is designed to encourage lending to small businesses by providing capital to qualified community banks at favorable rates.
On September 1, 2011 Stewardship Financial Corporation received $15 million through the purchase by the Treasury of the Corporation’s preferred stock. The Corporation used a portion of the SBLF proceeds to repurchase from the Treasury the full $10 million of outstanding preferred shares issued under the Capital Repurchase Program (“CPP”). We are also pleased to note that, as a result of our active and consistent lending to small and mid-sized businesses, the dividend paid by the Corporation for the fourth quarter of 2011 was at a rate of 1%, the most favorable rate available under the SBLF program and an improvement over the 5% dividend rate under the CPP. The additional capital provided by the SBLF program further solidifies our already well-capitalized position, thereby enhancing our ability to make new loans. Accordingly, we are better able to serve the lending needs of consumers and businesses in our market.
The Corporation was profitable for the year ended December 31, 2011 with net income of $684,000. The Corporation’s earnings were negatively affected by the prolonged local economic downturn which continues to require higher levels of loan loss provi- sions. The allowance for loan losses is based upon management’s evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance including an assessment of known and inherent risks
in the portfolio, actual loss experience, the level of delinquencies, and the estimated net realizable value of collateral based on current market conditions. Many of the Corporation’s loans are secured by commercial real estate. The Northern New Jersey commercial real estate market continued to decline in value in 2011which contributed to our need to fund additional reserves on the loans where the borrowers’ documented ability to meet loan obliga- tions did not support the debt. The loan loss provision of $10.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 was higher than the $9.6 million loan loss provision recorded for the year ended December 31, 2010. The loan loss allowance in the amount of $11.5 million, or 2.54% of total loans, as of December 31, 2011 compared favorably to the $8.5 million or 1.88% of total loans a year earlier. Non-accrual loans as of December 31, 2011 were $27.7 million or 6.08% of total loans and the Corporation charged off $7.8 million in loans during the year ending December 31, 2011. The asset quality issues can be attributed in part to the ongoing national and regional economic instability which began in 2008. The Corporation is diligently monitoring its loan portfolio in an effort to address and contain future credit quality concerns.
We recognize that the unfavorable economic conditions persist and this is stressing our commercial borrowers. As such, our management has taken steps to strengthen the Commercial Lending Division by enhancing its team. A new Commercial Lending Division Manager was hired to head-up the team, two new experienced commercial lenders were added, and two additional experienced credit analysts complimented the credit department. Our Credit Workout Officer was hired to oversee and work on the Corporation’s nonperforming assets. In addition to adding these experienced lenders and bankers, the Corporation thoroughly reviewed and enhanced the Commercial Lending Division policies and procedures. Although the Corporation is still an active commercial lender, the qualifying standards for obtaining a loan are appropriately stringent.
We are pleased to report our noninterest income increased $773,000 to $5.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 as compared to $4.4 million for the prior year. Noninterest income included gains on sales of residential mortgage loans which totaled $1.2 million for 2011, an increase from $671,000 for the same period a year earlier. The increase in residential mortgage loan sales is the result of an aggressive marketing campaign where the Corporation promoted a Zero Closing Cost Residential Refinance program. This marketing campaign resulted in more mortgages processed in 2011 thereby realizing greater fee income. Mortgage rates remain at historic lows and benefit customers looking to purchase homes as well as those looking to refinance.
Perhaps one of the best indicators of our strength as a corporation is in our ability to continue to move forward. In 2011, Atlantic Stewardship Bank introduced new products and services and made enhance- ments to existing products and services to better meet the needs of our customer base. To make our Online Banking experi- ence more robust, we launched a new Online Banking Homepage that gives our customers more comprehensive access to their accounts, transactions and financial tools and a purchase rewards program. Enhancements were made to ASB Mobile Text Banking as well. The new functionality includes the ability to transfer funds, receive a low balance alert, and add a second phone number to the account.
In 2012, Atlantic Stewardship Bank will introduce a mobile application for the iPhone, iPad and Android devices. This new functionality will allow customers to access their ASB accounts from wherever life takes them. With just a touch of a button, customers will be able to transfer funds between ASB accounts, view balances and transaction history, pay bills, locate ASB branches and ATMs and ultimately, deposit checks by scanning them into their device.
Our Mortgage Department launched a new and improved website at www.asbnowmortgage.com. The new website features: an improved online application that greatly simplifies the mortgage process; a short application to pre-qualify the customer who is just shopping; a pre-qualification calculator;an easy-to-read rates page; and a comprehensive list of our mortgage products.
For our business customers, the Bank introduced Re$ubmitIt, an electronic check recovery service. This service significantly reduces the burden of the business customer trying to collect funds from bounced checks. This service has the potential to double the business customer’s recovery rate. The business customer will collect more checks and get 100% of the face value of all checks that are collected electronically.
In 2012, Atlantic Stewardship Bank will partner with LPL Financial enabling us to become a full-service provider of financial products. Through a subsidiary, Investment Services at Atlantic Stewardship Bank, we will offer access to a complete array of financial instruments and services to our customers including stocks, bonds, mutual funds, annuities, insurance, state-of-the-art technology, and unbiased investment research. LPL Financial Consultants will reside in our branches and be able to provide our customers with professional guidance and excellent service.
The Atlantic Stewardship Bank Tithing Program has been a blessing to many organizations especially as the local and national economies are slow to recover. In 2011, the Bank donated $398,000 to 288 deserving organizations. Since the program’s inception in 1987,$7.7 million has been shared with those in need such as local food pantries, Christian missions, schools and healthcare facilities. Local civic and non-profit organizations are supported by the Bank’s tithing program as well. Atlantic Stewardship Bank is proud to be able to continue to share a portion of its profits with those in need.
In closing we would like to thank our shareholders, associates and most of all, our loyal customers for your continued support and confidence in Stewardship Financial Corporation and Atlantic Stewardship Bank. This is truly what sets us apart and allows us to be faithful servants to the Lord in all that we do.

OUR 2011 TITHING PROGRAM
EACH ONE SHOULD USE WHATEVER GIFT HE HAS RECEIVED
TO SERVE OTHERS, FAITHFULLY ADMINISTERING
GOD’S GRACE IN ITS VARIOUS FORMS.
1 PETER 4:10
What sets Atlantic Stewardship Bank apart from other financial institutions is the fact that every year the Bank gives away 10% of its pre-tax earnings. The Bank was founded on the Biblical Old Testament tenet of tithing or giving back one tenth to God. Each year, Atlantic Stewardship Bank tithes, or shares ten percent of its pre-tax earnings with Christian and local non-profit organizations selected by the Board of Directors. The original founders of the Bank were so deeply committed to this concept, that the Tithing Program defines our mission and is part of our corporate-by-laws.
In 2011, the Bank’s tithe was $398,000 enabling it to share with 288 recipients. Since the program’s inception, Atlantic Stewardship Bank has distributed $7.7 million in total tithe donations.
Atlantic Stewardship Bank considers it a blessing to be able to share a portion of our annual profits with worthy organizations. We continue to do so because the philosophy of giving back a portion of what we have earned to God remains just as important today as it was to the original founders of the Bank.
