PART I
Wayne Savings Bancshares, Inc.
Wayne Savings Bancshares, Inc. (the “Company”), is a unitary holding company for Wayne Savings Community Bank (the “Bank”). The only significant asset of the Company is its investment in the Bank. The Bank conducts its business from eleven full-service locations. The Company’s principal office is located at 151 North Market Street, Wooster, Ohio, and its telephone number at that address is (330) 264-5767. At March 31, 2010, the Company had total assets of $406.0 million, total deposits of $311.9 million, and stockholders’ equity of $37.0 million, or 9.1% of total assets.
Wayne Savings Community Bank
The Bank is an Ohio-chartered stock savings and loan association headquartered in Wooster, Ohio. The Bank’s deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). The Bank has been a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) System since 1937.
The Bank is a community-oriented institution offering a full range of consumer and business financial services to its local community. The Bank’s primary lending and deposit gathering area includes Wayne, Holmes, Ashland, Medina and Stark counties, where it operates eleven full-service offices. This contiguous five-county area is located in northeast Ohio, and is an active manufacturing and agricultural market. The Bank’s principal business activities consist of originating one-to-four family residential real estate loans, multi-family residential, commercial and non-residential real estate loans. The Bank also originates consumer loans, and to a lesser extent, construction loans. The Bank also invests in mortgage-backed securities and other liquid investments, such as United States Government securities, federal funds, and deposits in other financial institutions.
During the last five fiscal years, the Company has placed increased emphasis on non-residential real estate and commercial business loans. Non-residential real estate loans have increased from $50.8 million, or 21.3% of the total loan portfolio at March 31, 2006, to $64.4 million, or 25.5% of the total loan portfolio, at March 31, 2010. Commercial business loans have increased from $21.6 million, or 9.0% of the total loan portfolio, at March 31, 2006, to $35.6 million, or 14.1% of the total loan portfolio, at March 31, 2010. Correspondingly, one-to-four family residential and construction loans have decreased from $153.5 million, or 64.3% of the total loan portfolio at March 31, 2006, to $140.8 million, or 55.7% of the total loan portfolio, at March 31, 2010. Nonresidential real estate loans and commercial loans generally carry higher yields and shorter terms than one-to-four family loans. The increased emphasis on nonresidential real estate and commercial business loans has diversified the loan portfolio, expanded the Company’s product offerings and broadened the Company’s customer base and its corresponding ability to cross-sell its varied product offerings. This change in emphasis has also resulted in increased staffing expense and, in the current economic environment, increased provisions for loan losses due to the higher inherent risk associated with commercial lending activities. Growth in the loan portfolio peaked during fiscal 2009. Loan demand decreased during fiscal 2010, resulting in slower loan portfolio growth and a corresponding increase in the securities portfolio.
Market Area/Local Economy
The Bank, headquartered in Wooster, Ohio, operates in Wayne, Ashland, Medina, Holmes and Stark Counties in northeast Ohio. Wooster, Ohio is located in Wayne County and is approximately midway between Cleveland and Columbus, Ohio.
Wayne County is characterized by a diverse economic base, which is not dependent on any particular industry. It is one of the leading agricultural counties in the state. Since 1892, Wooster has been the headquarters of the Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center, the agricultural research arm of The Ohio State University. In addition, Wayne County is also the home base of such nationally known companies like The J.M. Smucker Company, Worthington Industries/The Gertsenslager Company, and the Wooster Brush Company. It is also the home of many industrial plants, including Packaging Corporation of America, International Paper Company, Morton Salt and Frito-Lay, Inc. The City of Wooster is a developing regional medical center, with a successful city-owned hospital and significant commitment by the world renowned Cleveland Clinic as they have established new state of the art medical facilities. Wayne County is also known for its excellence in education. The College of Wooster was founded in 1866 and serves 1,800 students during the school season. Other quality educational opportunities are offered by the Agricultural Technical Institute of The Ohio State University, and Wayne College, a branch of The University of Akron. Wayne Savings operates four full-service offices in Wooster, one stand-alone drive-thru facility and one full-service office in both Rittman and Creston.
Ashland County, which is located due west of Wayne County, also has a diverse economic base. In addition to its agricultural segment, Ashland County has manufacturing plants producing rubber and plastics, machinery, transportation equipment, chemicals, apparel, and other items. Ashland is also the home of Ashland University, which was founded in 1878 and serves 6,500 students. The City of Ashland is the county seat and the location of two of the Bank’s branch offices.
Medina County, located just north of Wayne County, is the center of a fertile agricultural region. While, farming remains the largest industry in the county in terms of dollar value of goods produced, over 100 small manufacturing firms also operate in the county. The City of Medina is located in the center of the Cleveland-Akron-Lorain Standard Consolidated Statistical Marketing Area. Medina is located approximately 30 miles south of Cleveland and 15 miles west of Akron. Due to its proximity to Akron and Cleveland, a majority of Medina County’s labor force is employed in these two cities. The Bank operates one full-service office in Medina County, which is located in the Village of Lodi.
Holmes County, located directly south of Wayne County, has a mostly rural economy. The local economy depends mostly upon agriculture, light manufacturing, fabrics, and wood products. Because of the scenic beauty and a large Amish settlement, revenues from tourism are becoming increasingly significant. The county is also noted for its many fine cheese-making operations. A large number of Holmes County residents are employed in Wayne County. The City of Millersburg is the county seat and the location of one of the Bank’s branch offices.
Stark County, located directly east of Wayne County, is characterized by a diverse economy and over 1,500 different products are manufactured in the county. Stark County also has a strong agricultural base, and ranks fourth in Ohio in the production of dairy products. The major employers in North Canton are Diebold Incorporated (a major manufacturer of bank security products and automated teller machines) and the Timken Company (a world-wide manufacturer of tapered roller bearings and specialty steels). The Bank does not have a material concentration of loans in the North Canton market area. Jackson Township is the home to the Westfield Belden Village Shopping Center, while Plain Township is a residential and agricultural area with a few widely scattered light industries. North Canton is the location of one of the Bank’s branches.
Lending Activities
General. Historically, the principal lending activity of the Company has been the origination of fixed and adjustable rate mortgage (“ARM”) loans collateralized by one-to-four family residential properties located in its market area. The Company originates ARM loans for retention in its portfolio, and fixed rate loans that are eligible for resale in the secondary mortgage market. The Company also originates loans collateralized by non-residential and multi-family residential real estate, as well as commercial business loans. The Company also originates consumer loans to broaden services offered to customers.
The Company has sought to make its interest-earning assets more interest rate sensitive by originating adjustable rate loans, such as ARM loans, home equity loans, and medium-term consumer loans. The Company also purchases mortgage-backed securities generally with estimated remaining average lives of five years or less. At March 31, 2010, approximately $112.9 million, or 32.3%, of the Company’s total loans and mortgage-backed securities consisted of loans or securities with adjustable interest rates.
The Company continues to actively originate fixed rate mortgage loans, generally with 15 to 30 year terms to maturity, collateralized by one-to-four family residential properties. One-to-four family fixed rate residential mortgage loans generally are originated and underwritten according to standards that allow the Company to sell such loans in the secondary mortgage market for purposes of managing interest rate risk and liquidity. From November 2005 until January 2009, the Company decided to retain all one-to-four family, fixed rate residential mortgage loan originations with terms of 15 and 30 years to manage the size of the portfolio and to provide higher yields as compared to alternative investments. In accordance with a policy adopted by the Bank’s Asset/Liability Committee (“ALCO”) that permits limited loan sales to address interest rate risk and liquidity concerns, during the 2010 fiscal year, the Company sold $5.9 million of fixed rate residential mortgage loans into the secondary market to limit the buildup of interest rate risk and to provide pipeline funding during a period where a large number of originations were occurring due to refinancing activity by consumers. The Company retains servicing on its sold mortgage loans. The Company also originates interim construction loans on one-to-four family residential properties.
The Company has continued to develop the commercial business loan program in order to increase the Company’s interest rate sensitive assets, increase interest income and diversify both the loan portfolio and the Company’s customer base. The Company has three experienced commercial lenders to manage this portfolio. The Company targets small local businesses with loan amounts in the $50,000 - $1.0 million range with a majority of loans under $500,000. While commercial business loans increased to $35.6 million at March 31, 2010, as compared to $21.6 million at March 31, 2006, nonresidential real estate and land loans increased from $50.8 million, or 21.3%, of the total loan portfolio at March 31, 2006, to $64.4 million, or 25.5%, of the total loan portfolio at March 31, 2010.

One-to-four family Residential Real Estate Loans. The Company’s primary lending activity consists of the origination of one-to-four family, owner-occupied, residential mortgage loans on properties located in the Company’s market area. The Company generally does not originate one-to-four family residential loans secured by properties outside of its market area. At March 31, 2010, the Company had $138.7 million, or 54.9%, of its total loan portfolio invested in one-to-four family residential mortgage loans.
The Company’s fixed rate loans generally are originated and underwritten according to standards that permit resale in the secondary mortgage market. Whether the Company can or will sell fixed rate loans into the secondary market, however, depends on a number of factors including the Company’s portfolio mix, interest rate risk and liquidity positions, and market conditions. The Company’s fixed rate mortgage loans are amortized on a monthly basis with principal and interest due each month. One-to-four family residential real estate loans often remain outstanding for significantly shorter periods than their contractual terms because borrowers may refinance or prepay loans at their option. The Company’s one-to-four family residential portfolio has declined $2.6 million or 1.9%, from March 31, 2009, to March 31, 2010. Sales into the secondary market were $5.9 million, $4.1 million and $6.1 million for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2010, 2009 and 2006, respectively. Such sales generally constituted current period originations. The Company had no new secondary market sales for both fiscal 2008 and 2007. There were no loans identified as held for sale at year end in any of the last five fiscal years ended as of March 31, 2010.
The Company currently offers one-to-four family residential mortgage loans with terms typically ranging from 15 to 30 years, and with adjustable or fixed interest rates. Originations of fixed rate mortgage loans versus ARM loans are monitored on an ongoing basis and are affected significantly by the level of market interest rates, customer preference, the Company’s interest rate risk gap position, and loan products offered by the Company’s competitors. Despite the Company’s emphasis on ARM loans, the low interest rate environment over the last few years has resulted in customer preference for fixed rate mortgage loans. As a result, during the year ended March 31, 2010, the Company’s ARM portfolio decreased by $2.4 million, or 7.4%.
The Company offers one ARM loan product. The Treasury ARM loan adjusts annually with interest rate adjustment limitations of 2% per year and with a cap of 3% or 5% on total rate increases or decreases over the life of the loan. The index on the Treasury ARM loan is the weekly average yield on U.S. Treasury securities, adjusted to a constant maturity of one year plus a margin. However, these loans are underwritten at the fully-indexed interest rate. All loans require monthly principal and interest payments and negative amortization is not permitted. One-to-four family residential ARM loans totaled $30.7 million, or 12.2%, of the Company’s total loan portfolio at March 31, 2010.
The primary purpose of offering ARM loans is to make the Company’s loan portfolio more interest rate sensitive. However, as the interest income earned on ARM loans varies with prevailing interest rates, such loans do not offer the Company predictable cash flows as would long-term, fixed rate loans. ARM loans carry increased credit risk associated with potentially higher monthly payments by borrowers as general market interest rates increase. It is possible, therefore, that during periods of rising interest rates, the risk of default on ARM loans may increase due to the upward adjustment of interest costs to the borrower. Management believes that the Company’s credit risk associated with its ARM loans is reduced because the Company has either a 3% or 5% cap on interest rate increases during the life of its ARM loans.
The Company also offers home equity loans and equity lines of credit collateralized by a second mortgage on the borrower’s principal residence. In underwriting these home equity loans, the Company requires that the maximum loan-to-value ratios, including the principal balances of both the first and second mortgage loans, not exceed 85%. The home equity loan portfolio consists of adjustable rate loans which use the prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal as the interest rate index. Home equity loans include fixed term adjustable rate loans, as well as lines of credit. As of March 31, 2010, the Company’s equity loan portfolio totaled $16.4 million, or 11.8%, of its one-to-four family mortgage loan portfolio.
The Company’s one-to-four family residential first mortgage loans customarily include due-on-sale clauses, which are provisions giving the Company the right to declare a loan immediately due and payable in the event, among other things, that the borrower sells or otherwise disposes of the underlying real property serving as security for the loan. Due-on-sale clauses are an important means of adjusting the rates on the Company’s fixed rate mortgage loan portfolio.
Regulations limit the amount that a savings association may lend relative to the appraised value of the real estate securing the loan, as determined by an appraisal at the time of loan origination. The Company’s lending policies limit the maximum loan-to-value ratio on both fixed rate and ARM loans without private mortgage insurance to 80% of the lesser of the appraised value or the purchase price of the property to serve as collateral for the loan. However, the Company makes one-to-four family real estate loans with loan-to-value ratios in excess of 80%. For 15 year fixed rate and ARM loans with loan-to-value ratios of 80.01% to 85%, 85.01% to 90%, 90.01% to 95%, and 95.01% to 97%, the Company requires the first 6%, 12%, 25% and 30%, respectively, of the loan to be covered by private mortgage insurance. For 30 year fixed rate loans with loan-to-value ratios of 80.01% to 85%, 85.01% to 90%, and 90.01% to 97%, the Company requires the first 12%, 25%, and 30%, respectively, of the loan to be covered by private mortgage insurance. The Company requires fire and casualty insurance, as well as title insurance on all properties securing real estate loans made by the Company and flood insurance, where applicable.
Multi-Family Residential Real Estate Loans. Loans secured by multi-family real estate constituted approximately $8.6 million, or 3.4%, of the Company’s total loan portfolio at March 31, 2010. The Company’s multi-family real estate loans are secured by multi-family residences, such as apartment buildings. At March 31, 2010, most of the Company’s multi-family loans were secured by properties located within the Company’s market area with an average balance of $508,000. The largest multi-family real estate loan had a principal balance of $3.0 million. Multi-family real estate loans currently are offered with adjustable interest rates or short term balloon maturities, although in the past the Company originated fixed rate long-term multi-family real estate loans. The terms of each multi-family loan are negotiated on a case by case basis, although such loans typically have adjustable interest rates tied to a market index, and amortize over 15 to 25 years. The Company currently does not have any multi-family real estate construction loans.
Loans secured by multi-family real estate generally involve a greater degree of credit risk than one-to-four family residential mortgage loans and carry larger loan balances. This increased credit risk is a result of several factors, including the concentration of principal in a limited number of loans and borrowers, the effects of general economic conditions on income producing properties, and the increased difficulty of evaluating and monitoring these types of loans. Furthermore, the repayment of loans secured by multi-family real estate is typically dependent upon the successful operation of the related real estate property. If the cash flow from the project is reduced, the borrower’s ability to repay the loan may be impaired.
Non-Residential Real Estate and Land Loans. Loans secured by non-residential real estate constituted approximately $64.4 million, or 25.5%, of the Company’s total loan portfolio at March 31, 2010 compared to $50.8 million or 21.3% of the total loan portfolio at March 31, 2006. This increase is the result of the Company’s strategy to diversify its loan portfolio. The Company’s non-residential real estate loans are secured by improved property such as offices, small business facilities, and other non-residential buildings. At March 31, 2010, most of the Company’s non-residential real estate loans were secured by properties located within the Company’s market area with an average balance of $304,000. The largest non-residential real estate loan had a principal balance of $4.1 million. The terms of each non-residential real estate loan are negotiated on a case by case basis. Non-residential real estate loans are currently offered with adjustable interest rates or short term balloon maturities, although in the past the Company has originated fixed rate long term non-residential real estate loans. Non-residential real estate loans originated by the Company generally amortize over 15 to 25 years. The Company currently does not emphasize non-residential real estate construction loans. Included in the loan tables above are non-residential construction loans totaling $933,000, of which $703,000 is undisbursed.
Loans secured by non-residential real estate generally involve a greater degree of risk than one-to-four family residential mortgage loans and carry larger loan balances. This increased credit risk is a result of several factors, including the concentration of principal in a limited number of loans and borrowers, the effects of general economic conditions on income producing properties, and the increased difficulty of evaluating and monitoring these types of loans. Furthermore, the repayment of loans secured by non-residential real estate is typically dependent upon the successful operation of the related real estate project. If the cash flow from the project is reduced, the borrower’s ability to repay the loan may be impaired.
The Company also originates a limited number of land loans secured by individual improved and unimproved lots for future residential construction. Land loans are generally offered with a fixed rate and with terms of up to 5 years. Land loans totaled $110,000 at March 31, 2010.
Residential Construction Loans. To a lesser extent, the Company originates loans to finance the construction of one-to-four family residential property. At March 31, 2010, the Company had $2.1 million, or 0.8%, of its total loan portfolio invested in interim construction loans. The Company makes construction loans to private individuals and to builders. Loan proceeds are disbursed in increments as construction progresses and as inspections warrant. Construction loans are typically structured as permanent one-to-four family loans originated by the Company with a 12-month construction phase. Accordingly, upon completion of the construction phase, there is no change in interest rate or term to maturity of the original construction loan, nor is a new permanent loan originated.
Commercial Business Loans. Commercial business loans totaled $35.6 million, or 14.1% of the Company’s total loan portfolio at March 31, 2010. The Company has three experienced commercial lenders and plans to continue commercial lending growth as part of the Company’s strategic plan to diversify the loan portfolio.
Commercial loans carry a higher degree of risk than one-to-four family residential loans. Such lending typically involves large loan balances concentrated in a single borrower or groups of related borrowers for rental or business properties. In addition, the payment experience on loans secured by income-producing properties is typically dependent on the success of the operation of the related project and thus is typically affected by adverse conditions in the real estate market and in the economy. The Company originates commercial loans generally in the $50,000 to $1,000,000 range with the majority of these loans being under $500,000. Commercial loans are generally underwritten based on the borrower’s ability to pay and assets such as buildings, land and equipment are taken as additional loan collateral. Each loan is evaluated for a level of risk and assigned a rating from “1” (the highest rating) to “7” (the lowest rating).
Consumer Loans. Ohio savings associations are authorized to invest in secured and unsecured consumer loans in an aggregate amount which, when combined with investments in commercial paper and corporate debt securities, does not exceed 20% of an association’s assets. In addition, an Ohio association is permitted to invest up to 5% of its assets in loans for educational purposes.
As of March 31, 2010, consumer loans totaled $3.4 million, or 1.4%, of the Company’s total loan portfolio. The principal types of consumer loans offered by the Company are second mortgage loans, fixed rate auto and truck loans, unsecured personal loans, and loans secured by deposit accounts. Consumer loans are offered primarily on a fixed rate basis with maturities generally less than ten years.
The Company’s second mortgage consumer loans are secured by the borrower’s principal residence with a maximum loan-to-value ratio, including the principal balances of both the first and second mortgage loans, of 85% or less. Such loans are offered on a fixed rate basis with terms of up to ten years. At March 31, 2010, second mortgage loans totaled $1.1 million, or 0.8%, of one-to-four family mortgage loans.
The underwriting standards employed by the Company for consumer loans include a determination of the applicant’s credit history and an assessment of the applicant’s ability to meet existing obligations and payments on the proposed loan. The quality and stability of the applicant’s monthly income are determined by analyzing the gross monthly income from primary employment, and additionally from any verifiable secondary income. Creditworthiness of the applicant is of primary consideration. However, where applicable, the underwriting process also includes a comparison of the value of the collateral in relation to the proposed loan amount.
Consumer loans entail greater credit risk than residential mortgage loans, particularly in the case of consumer loans that are unsecured or secured by assets that depreciate rapidly, such as automobiles, mobile homes, boats, and recreational vehicles. In such cases, repossessed collateral for a defaulted consumer loan may not provide an adequate source of repayment for the outstanding loan and the remaining deficiency often does not warrant further substantial collection efforts against the borrower. In particular, amounts realizable on the sale of repossessed automobiles may be significantly reduced based upon the condition of the automobiles and the lack of demand for used automobiles. The Company adds a general provision on a regular basis to its consumer loan loss allowance, based on, among other factors, general economic conditions and prior loss experience. See “—Delinquencies and Classified Assets—Non-Performing and Impaired Assets,” and “—Classification of Assets” for information regarding the Company’s loan loss experience and reserve policy.
Mortgage-Backed Securities and Private-Label Collateralized Mortgage Obligations. The Company also invests in mortgage-backed securities generally issued or guaranteed by the United States Government or agencies thereof or rated AAA by a nationally recognized credit rating organization in accordance with the Board approved investment policy. Investments in mortgage-backed securities are made either directly or by exchanging mortgage loans in the Company’s portfolio for such securities. These securities consist primarily of adjustable rate mortgage-backed securities issued or guaranteed by the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA”), Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC”), and the Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”). Total mortgage-backed securities, including those designated as available for sale, increased from $88.8 million at March 31, 2009 to $96.9 million at March 31, 2010, primarily due to purchases funded with proceeds of maturing agency bonds to increase portfolio yield and reduce reinvestment risk.
The Company’s holdings of private-label collateralized mortgage obligations totaled $3.5 million at March 31, 2010 compared to $8.3 million at March 31, 2009. As noted above, all such securities were rated AAA at the time of purchase and the remaining four holdings continue to be rated AAA. The four positions contain collateral that was originated during 2003 or earlier. In addition, management reviews a monthly analysis of actual and projected cashflows for the four securities to determine whether or not any other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) exists. At March 31, 2010 and 2009, no OTTI was identified with respect to these securities.
The Company’s objectives in investing in mortgage-backed securities vary from time to time depending upon market interest rates, local mortgage loan demand, and the Company’s level of liquidity. Mortgage-backed securities are more liquid than whole loans, can be readily sold in response to market conditions and changes in interest rates and provide monthly principal and interest cash flows that can be used to fund loan demand or reinvested in the securities portfolio. Mortgage-backed securities purchased by the Company also have lower credit risk because principal and interest are either insured or guaranteed by the United States Government or agencies thereof.
Loan Originations, Solicitation, Processing and Commitments. Loan originations are derived from a number of sources such as real estate broker referrals, existing customers, borrowers, builders, attorneys and walk-in customers. The Company has also entered into a number of participation loans with high quality lead lenders. The participations are outside the Company’s normal lending area and diversify the loan portfolio. Upon receiving a loan application, the Company obtains a credit report and employment verification to verify specific information relating to the applicant’s employment, income, and credit standing. In the case of a real estate loan, an appraiser approved by the Company appraises the real estate intended to secure the proposed loan. An underwriter in the Company’s loan department checks the loan application file for accuracy and completeness, and verifies the information provided. Conventional mortgage loans up to $240,000 can be approved by the manager of the mortgage loan department. The mortgage department manager can also approve loans that meet all requirements to be sold on the secondary market and comply with Freddie Mac underwriting of up to $417,000. All loans up to $300,000 can be approved by the Commercial Lending Vice President while the Chief Operations Officer and the Chief Financial Officer can approve only commercial loans up to $300,000. Any loans between $300,000 and $500,000 must be approved by the Senior Vice President of Commercial Lending or the Chief Executive Officer. The Loan Committee must approve loans from $500,000 to $1,000,000 and loans in excess of $1,000,000 must be approved by the Board of Directors. The Loan Committee meets once a week to review and verify that loan officer approvals of loans are made within the scope of management’s authority. All approvals subsequently are ratified monthly by the full Board of Directors. Fire and casualty insurance is required at the time the loan is made and throughout the term of the loan. After the loan is approved, a loan commitment letter is promptly issued to the borrower. At March 31, 2010, the Company had commitments to originate $2.2 million of loans.
If the loan is approved, the commitment letter specifies the terms and conditions of the proposed loan including the amount of the loan, interest rate, amortization term, a brief description of the required collateral, and required insurance coverage. The borrower must provide proof of fire and casualty insurance on the property serving as collateral, which insurance must be maintained during the full term of the loan. A title search of the property is required on all loans secured by real property.

Loan Origination Fees and Other Income. In addition to interest earned on loans, the Company generally receives loan origination fees. The Company accounts for loan origination fees in accordance with FASB ASC 310-20. To the extent that loans are originated or acquired for the Company’s portfolio, FASB ASC 310-20 requires that the Company defer loan origination fees and costs and amortize such amounts as an adjustment of yield over the life of the loan by use of the level yield method. FASB ASC 310-20 reduces the amount of revenue recognized by many financial institutions at the time such loans are originated or acquired. Fees deferred under FASB ASC 310-20 are recognized into income immediately upon prepayment or the sale of the related loan. At March 31, 2010, the Company had $421,000 of deferred loan origination fees. Loan origination fees are volatile sources of income. Such fees vary with the volume and type of loans and commitments made and purchased, principal repayments, and competitive conditions in the mortgage markets, which in turn respond to the demand for and availability of money.
The Company receives other fees, service charges, and other income that consist primarily of deposit transaction account service charges, late charges and income from REO operations. The Company recognized fees and service charges of $1.3 million, $1.3 million and $1.5 million, for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
Loans to One Borrower. Savings associations are subject to the same limits as those applicable to national banks, which under current regulations restrict loans to one borrower to an amount equal to 15% of unimpaired capital and unimpaired surplus on an unsecured basis, and an additional amount equal to 10% of unimpaired capital and unimpaired surplus if the loan is secured by readily marketable collateral (generally, financial instruments and bullion, but not real estate). At March 31, 2010, the Company’s largest concentration of loans to one borrower totaled $4.1 million. All of the loans in this concentration were current in accordance with their original terms at March 31, 2010. The Company had no loans at March 31, 2010, which exceeded the loans to one borrower regulations.
Delinquencies and Classified Assets
Delinquencies. The Company’s collection procedures provide that when a loan is 15 days past due, a computer-generated late charge notice is sent to the borrower requesting payment, plus a late charge. This notice is followed with a letter again requesting payment when the payment becomes 20 days past due. If delinquency continues, at 30 days another collection letter is sent and personal contact efforts are attempted, either in person or by telephone, to strengthen the collection process and obtain reasons for the delinquency. Also, a repayment plan is established. If a loan becomes 60 days past due, the loan becomes subject to possible legal action if suitable arrangements to repay have not been made. In addition, the borrower is given information which provides access to consumer counseling services, to the extent required by HUD regulations. When a loan continues in a delinquent status for 90 days or more, and a repayment schedule has not been made or kept by the borrower, a notice of intent to foreclose is sent to the borrower, giving 30 days to cure the delinquency. If not cured, foreclosure proceedings are initiated.
Non-Performing and Impaired Assets. Loans are reviewed on a regular basis and are placed on a non-accrual status when, in the opinion of management, the collection of additional interest is doubtful. Mortgage loans are placed on non-accrual status generally when either principal or interest is 90 days or more past due and management considers the interest uncollectible. Interest accrued and unpaid at the time a loan is placed on non-accrual status is charged against interest income.
Under the provisions of FASB ASC 310-10, a loan is defined as impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that a creditor will be unable to collect all amounts due under the contractual terms of the loan agreement. In applying the provisions of FASB ASC 310-10, the Bank considers one-to-four family residential loans and consumer installment loans to be homogeneous and therefore excluded from separate identification for impairment. With respect to the Bank’s multi-family commercial and nonresidential loans, and the evaluation of impairment thereof, such loans are collateral dependent and, as a result, are carried as a practical expedient at the lower of cost or fair value.
At March 31, 2010, the Company had non-performing loans of $4.3 million and a ratio of non-performing and impaired loans to loans receivable of 2.63%. Of the non-performing loans, $2.1 million were one-to-four family residential mortgage loans. The Company has historically realized limited losses on such loans primarily because these loans are underwritten with a maximum 85% loan-to-value ratio. There was one commercial real estate loan totaling $1.4 million and five commercial loans totaling $772,000 on non-accrual status the end of fiscal 2010. In the opinion of management, as of March 31, 2010, no significant unreserved loss is anticipated on any non-performing loan. At March 31, 2009, there were two commercial real estate loans totaling $3.0 million on non-accrual. The largest commercial real estate loan totaled $2.8 million. The Bank was able to obtain title and transfer this property into real estate owned as of March 31, 2010 at an appraised value of $2.2 million, with the remaining $600,000 charged to the allowance for loan losses. The second commercial real estate loan was transferred into foreclosed assets held for sale in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 with an initial carrying value of $159,000. This loan was written down by $20,000 in December 2009 and further written down by $40,000 during February 2010 to a carrying value of $99,000. At March 31, 2009, the Company had four commercial loans totaling $558,000 on non-accrual status.
Real estate acquired by the Company as a result of foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure (“REO”) is deemed REO until such time as it is sold. When REO is acquired, it is recorded at the lower of the unpaid principal balance of the related loan or its fair value, less estimated selling expenses. Valuations are periodically performed by management, and any subsequent decline in fair value is charged to operations.
The following table sets forth information regarding our non-accrual and impaired loans and real estate acquired through foreclosure at the dates indicated. For all the dates indicated, the Company did not have any material loans which had been restructured pursuant to FASB ASC 310-40.

During the year ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, gross interest income of $196,000 and $242,000 would have been recorded on loans that were accounted for on a non-accrual basis if the loans had been current throughout the period. Interest income recognized on non-accrual loans totaled $100,000 and $145,000 for the years ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Company recognized interest income on impaired loans for fiscal 2010 of $199,000 and $118,000 for fiscal 2009.

Classification of Assets. Federal regulations provide for the classification of loans and other assets such as debt and equity securities considered by the OTS to be of lesser quality as “substandard,” “doubtful,” or “loss” assets. An asset is considered “substandard” if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. “Substandard” assets include those characterized by the “distinct possibility” that the savings institution will sustain “some loss” if the deficiencies are not corrected. Assets classified as “doubtful” have all of the weaknesses inherent in those classified “substandard,” with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make “collection or liquidation in full,” on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, “highly questionable and improbable.” Assets classified as “loss” are those considered “uncollectible” and of such little value that their continuance as assets without the establishment of a specific loss reserve is not warranted. Assets that do not expose the savings institution to risk sufficient to warrant classification in one of the aforementioned categories, but which possess some weaknesses, are required to be designated “special mention” by management.
When a savings institution classifies problem assets as either substandard or doubtful, it is required to establish general allowances for loan losses in an amount deemed prudent by management. General allowances represent loss allowances that have been established to recognize the inherent risk associated with lending activities, but which, unlike specific allowances, have not been allocated to particular problem assets. When a savings institution classifies problem assets as “loss,” it is required either to establish a specific allowance for losses equal to 100% of the amount of the assets so classified, or to charge off such amount. A savings institution’s determination as to the classification of its assets and the amount of its valuation allowances is subject to review by the OTS, which can order the establishment of additional general or specific loss allowances. The Company regularly reviews the problem loans in its portfolio to determine whether any loans require classification in accordance with applicable regulations.
The following table sets forth the aggregate amount of the Company’s classified assets at the dates indicated.

Allowance for Loan Losses. In determining the amount of the allowance for loan losses at any point in time, management and the Board of Directors apply a systematic process focusing on the risk of loss in the loan portfolio. First, delinquent non-residential, multi-family and commercial loans are evaluated individually for potential impairment in their carrying value. Second, management applies historic loss experience to the individual loan types in the portfolio. In addition to the historic loss percentage, management employs an additional risk percentage tailored to the perception of overall risk in the economy. However, the analysis of the allowance for loan losses requires an element of judgment and is subject to the possibility that the allowance may need to be increased, with the corresponding reduction in earnings.
During the fiscal years ended March 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, the Company added $1.6 million, $1.1 million and $234,000, respectively, to the provision for loan losses. The Company’s allowance for loan losses totaled $2.8 million, $2.5 million and $1.8 million at March 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Management increased the provision for loan losses in fiscal years 2009 and 2010 primarily due to the increase in non-performing loans and charge-offs, as discussed above under “Delinquencies and Classified Assets – Non-Performing and Impaired Assets,” as well as an increase in the size and risk profile of the loan portfolio. In addition, management evaluated non-performing commercial loans and made an additional provision based on updated appraisals and the evaluation of these loans. While management believes that the Company’s current allowance for loan losses is adequate, there can be no assurance that the allowance for loan losses will be adequate to cover losses that may in fact be realized in the future or that additional provisions for loan losses will not be required. To the best of management’s knowledge, all known losses as of March 31, 2010, have been recorded.

Sources of Funds
General. Deposits are the major source of the Company’s funds for lending and other investment purposes. In addition to deposits, the Company derives funds from the amortization, prepayment or sale of loans and mortgage-backed securities, the sale or maturity of investment securities, operations and, if needed, advances from the FHLB and the Federal Reserve discount window. Scheduled loan principal repayments are a relatively stable source of funds, while deposit inflows and outflows and loan and mortgage-backed security prepayments are influenced significantly by general interest rates and market conditions. Borrowings may be used on a short-term basis to compensate for reductions in the availability of funds from other sources or on a longer term basis for general business purposes.
Deposits. Consumer and commercial deposits are attracted principally from within the Company’s market area through the offering of a broad selection of deposit instruments including checking accounts, savings accounts, money market accounts, term certificate of deposit accounts, commercial repurchase agreements and individual retirement accounts. The Company accepts deposits of $100,000 or more and offers negotiated interest rates on such deposits. Deposit account terms vary according to the minimum balance required, the period of time during which the funds must remain on deposit and the interest rate, among other factors. The Company regularly evaluates its internal cost of funds, surveys rates offered by competing institutions, reviews the Company’s cash flow requirements for lending and liquidity, and executes rate changes when deemed appropriate. The Company does not obtain funds through brokers, nor does it solicit funds outside its market area.
Deposit Portfolio. Savings and other deposits in the Company as of March 31, 2010, were comprised of the following:

Borrowings
Deposits are the primary source of funds for the Company’s lending and investment activities and for its general business purposes. The Bank may rely upon advances from the FHLB and the Federal Reserve Bank discount window to supplement its supply of lendable funds and to meet deposit withdrawal requirements. Advances from the FHLB typically are collateralized by stock in the FHLB and a portion of first mortgage loans held by the Bank. At March 31, 2010, the Company had $45.5 million in advances outstanding.
The FHLB functions as a central reserve bank providing credit for member savings associations and financial institutions. Members of the FHLB are required to own capital stock in the FHLB and are authorized to apply for advances on the security of such stock and certain home mortgages and other assets (principally, securities that are obligations of, or guaranteed by, the United States) provided certain standards related to creditworthiness have been met. Advances are made pursuant to several different programs. Each credit program has its own interest rate and range of maturities. Depending on the program, limitations on the amount of advances are based either on a fixed percentage of a member institution’s net worth or on the FHLB’s assessment of the institution’s creditworthiness.
Other short-term borrowings consist of repurchase agreements executed with customers as part of a commercial account sweep program. A portion of the Bank’s securities portfolio is used to support this program.

Competition
The Company encounters strong competition both in attracting deposits and in originating real estate and other loans. Its most direct competition for deposits has come historically from commercial banks, brokerage houses, other savings associations, and credit unions in its market area, and the Company expects continued strong competition from such financial institutions in the foreseeable future. The Company’s market area includes branches of several commercial banks that are substantially larger than the Company in terms of state-wide deposits. The Company competes for savings by offering depositors a high level of personal service and expertise together with a wide range of financial services.
The competition for real estate and other loans comes principally from commercial banks, mortgage banking companies, and other savings associations. This competition for loans has increased substantially in recent years as a result of the large number of institutions competing in the Company’s market area as well as the increased efforts by commercial banks to expand mortgage loan originations.
The Company competes for loans primarily through the interest rates and loan fees it charges and the efficiency and quality of services it provides borrowers, real estate brokers, and builders. Factors that affect competition include general and local economic conditions, current interest rate levels and volatility of the mortgage markets.
Subsidiaries
At March 31, 2010, the Company did not have any direct unconsolidated subsidiaries.
Total Employees
The Company had 96 full-time employees and 22 part-time employees at March 31, 2010. None of these employees are represented by a collective bargaining agent, and the Company believes that it enjoys good relations with its personnel.
Regulation
As a state-chartered, FDIC insured institution, the Bank is subject to examination, supervision and extensive regulation by the Office of Thrift Supervision (“OTS”), the Ohio Department of Commerce, Division of Financial Institutions (“ODFI”), and the FDIC. The Bank is a member of, and owns stock in, the FHLB of Cincinnati, which is one of the twelve regional banks in the Federal Home Loan Bank System. This regulation and supervision establishes a comprehensive framework of activities in which an institution can engage and is intended primarily for the protection of the insurance fund and depositors. The OTS and ODFI regularly examine the Bank and prepare reports of examination addressed to the Company’s Board of Directors regarding any deficiencies that they may find in the Company’s operations. The FDIC also may examine the Bank in its role as the administrator of the Deposit Insurance Fund (“DIF”). The Bank’s relationship with its depositors and borrowers also is regulated to a great extent by both federal and state laws especially in such matters as the ownership of savings accounts and the form and content of the Bank’s mortgage documents. Any change in such regulation, whether by the FDIC, OTS, ODFI, or Congress, could have a material adverse impact on the Company, the Bank and their operations.
Federal Regulation of Savings Institutions
Business Activities. The activities of savings associations are governed by the Home Owners’ Loan Act, as amended (the “HOLA”) and, in certain respects, the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (the “FDI Act”). These federal statutes, among other things, (1) limit the types of loans a savings association may make, (2) prohibit the acquisition of any corporate debt security that is not rated in one of the four highest rating categories, and (3) restrict the aggregate amount of loans secured by non-residential real estate property to 400% of capital. The description of statutory provisions and regulations applicable to savings associations set forth herein does not purport to be a complete description of such statutes and regulations and their effect on the Company or the Bank.
Loans to One Borrower. Under the HOLA, savings institutions are generally subject to the national bank limits on loans to one borrower. Generally, savings institutions may not make a loan or extend credit to a single or related group of borrowers in excess of 15% of the institution’s unimpaired capital and surplus. An additional amount may be lent, equal to 10% of unimpaired capital and surplus, if such loan is secured by readily-marketable collateral, which is defined to include certain securities and bullion, but generally does not include real estate. See “—Lending Activities—Loans to One Borrower.”
Qualified Thrift Lender Test. The HOLA requires savings associations to meet a qualified thrift lender (“QTL”) test. Under the QTL test, a savings association is required to maintain at least 65% of its “portfolio assets” (total assets less (i) specified liquid assets up to 20% of total assets, (ii) intangibles, including goodwill, and (iii) the value of property used to conduct business) in certain “qualified thrift investments,” primarily residential mortgages and related investments, including certain mortgage-backed and related securities on a monthly basis in 9 out of every 12 months.
A savings association that fails the QTL test must either convert to a bank charter or operate under certain restrictions. As of March 31, 2010, the Company maintained 88.4% of its portfolio assets in qualified thrift investments and, therefore, met the QTL test.
Limitation on Capital Distributions. OTS regulations impose limitations upon all capital distributions by savings institutions, such as cash dividends, payments to repurchase or otherwise acquire its shares, payments to stockholders of another institution in a cash-out merger and other distributions charged against capital. A “well-capitalized” institution can, after prior notice but without the approval of the OTS, make capital distributions during a calendar year in an amount up to 100% of its net income during the calendar year, plus its retained net income for the preceding two years. As of March 31, 2010, the Bank was a “well-capitalized” institution.
Community Reinvestment. Under the Community Reinvestment Act (the “CRA”), as implemented by OTS regulations, a savings institution has a continuing and affirmative obligation, consistent with its safe and sound operation, to help meet the credit needs of its entire community, including low and moderate income neighborhoods. The CRA does not establish specific lending requirements or programs for financial institutions, nor does it limit an institution’s discretion to develop the types of products and services that it believes are best suited to its particular community, consistent with the CRA. The CRA requires the OTS, in connection with its examination of a savings institution, to assess the institution’s record of meeting the credit needs of its community and to take such record into account in its evaluation of certain applications by such institution. The CRA also requires all institutions to make public disclosure of their CRA ratings. The Company received a “satisfactory” CRA rating under the current CRA regulations in its most recent federal examination by the OTS.
Transactions with Related Parties. The Company’s authority to engage in transactions with related parties or “affiliates” (i.e., any company that controls or is under common control with an institution, including the Bank and any non-savings institution subsidiaries) or to make loans to certain insiders, is limited by Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act (“FRA”). Section 23A limits the aggregate amount of transactions with any individual affiliate to 10% of the capital and surplus of the savings institution and also limits the aggregate amount of transactions with all affiliates to 20% of the savings institution’s capital and surplus. Certain transactions with affiliates are required to be secured by collateral in an amount and of a type described in Section 23A and the purchase of low quality assets from affiliates is generally prohibited. Section 23B provides that certain transactions with affiliates, including loans and asset purchases, must be on terms and under circumstances, including credit standards, that are substantially the same or at least as favorable to the institution as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with non-affiliated companies. In addition, savings institutions are prohibited from lending to any affiliate that is engaged in activities that are not permissible for bank holding companies and no savings institution may purchase the securities of any affiliate other than a subsidiary.
Enforcement. Under the FDI Act, the OTS has primary enforcement responsibility over savings institutions and has the authority to bring enforcement action against all “institution-related parties,” including stockholders, and any attorneys, appraisers and accountants who knowingly or recklessly participate in wrongful action likely to have an adverse effect on an insured institution. Formal enforcement action may range from the issuance of a capital directive or cease and desist order to removal of officers and/or directors of the institutions, receivership, conservatorship or the termination of deposit insurance. Civil penalties cover a wide range of violations and actions, and range up to $25,000 per day, unless a finding of reckless disregard is made, in which case penalties may be as high as $1 million per day. Criminal penalties for most financial institution crimes include fines of up to $1 million and imprisonment for up to 30 years. Under the FDI Act, the FDIC has the authority to recommend to the Director of OTS that enforcement action be taken with respect to a particular savings institution. If action is not taken by the Director, the FDIC has authority to take such action under certain circumstances.
Standards for Safety and Soundness. The federal banking agencies have adopted a final regulation and Interagency Guidelines Prescribing Standards for Safety and Soundness (“Guidelines”) to implement the safety and soundness standards required under the FDI Act. The Guidelines set forth the safety and soundness standards that the federal banking agencies use to identify and address problems at insured depository institutions before capital becomes impaired. The standards set forth in the Guidelines address internal controls and information systems; internal audit system; credit underwriting; loan documentation; interest rate risk exposure; asset growth; and compensation, fees and benefits. The agencies also adopted a proposed rule which proposes asset quality and earnings standards which, if adopted, would be added to the Guidelines. If the appropriate federal banking agency determines that an institution fails to meet any standard prescribed by the Guidelines, the agency may require the institution to submit to the agency an acceptable plan to achieve compliance with the standard, as required by the FDI Act. The final regulations establish deadlines for the submission and review of such safety and soundness compliance plans.
Capital Requirements. The OTS capital regulations require savings institutions to meet three capital standards: a 1.5% tangible capital standard, a 4.0% leverage ratio (or core capital ratio) and an 8.0% risk-based capital standard. Core capital is defined as common stockholders’ equity (including retained earnings), certain non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock and related surplus, minority interests in equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries less intangibles other than certain qualifying supervisory goodwill and certain mortgage servicing rights. The OTS regulations also require that, in meeting the tangible ratio, leverage and risk-based capital standards, institutions must deduct investments in and loans to subsidiaries engaged in activities not permissible for a national bank.
The risk-based capital standard for savings institutions requires the maintenance of Tier 2 (core) and total capital (which is defined as core capital and supplementary capital) to risk-weighted assets of 4.0% and 8.0%, respectively. In determining the amount of risk-weighted assets, all assets, including certain off-balance sheet assets, are multiplied by a risk-weight of 0% to 100%, as assigned by the OTS capital regulation based on the risks the OTS believes are inherent in the type of asset. The components of Tier 1 (core) capital are equivalent to those discussed earlier under the 4.0% leverage ratio standard. The components of supplementary capital currently include cumulative preferred stock, long-term perpetual preferred stock, mandatory convertible securities, subordinated debt and intermediate preferred stock and allowance for loan and lease losses. Allowance for loan and lease losses includable in supplementary capital is limited to a maximum of 1.25%. Overall, the amount of supplementary capital included as part of total capital cannot exceed 100% of core capital.
Prompt Corrective Regulatory Action
Under the OTS Prompt Corrective Action regulations, the OTS is required to take certain supervisory actions against undercapitalized institutions, the severity of which depends upon the institution’s degree of capitalization. Generally, a savings institution that has total risk-based capital of less than 8.0% or a leverage ratio or a Tier 1 core capital ratio that is less than 4.0% is considered to be undercapitalized. A savings institution that has the total risk-based capital less than 6.0%, a Tier 1 core risk-based capital ratio of less than 3.0% or a leverage ratio that is less than 3.0% is considered to be “significantly undercapitalized” and a savings institution that has a tangible capital to assets ratio equal to or less than 2.0% is deemed to be “critically undercapitalized.” Subject to a narrow exception, the banking regulator is required to appoint a receiver or conservator for an institution that is “critically undercapitalized.” The regulation also provides that a capital restoration plan must be filed with the OTS within 45 days of the date an institution receives notice that it is “undercapitalized,” “significantly undercapitalized” or “critically undercapitalized.” In addition, numerous mandatory supervisory actions become immediately applicable to the institution, including, but not limited to, restrictions on growth, investment activities, capital distributions and affiliate transactions. The OTS could also take any one of a number of discretionary supervisory actions, including the issuance of a capital directive and the replacement of senior executive officers and directors.
Insurance of Accounts and Regulation by the FDIC
The Bank is a member of the FDIC. Deposits are insured up to applicable limits by the FDIC and such insurance is backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. As insurer, the FDIC imposes deposit insurance premiums and is authorized to conduct examinations of and to require reporting by FDIC-insured institutions. It also may prohibit any FDIC-insured institution from engaging in any activity the FDIC determines by regulation or order to pose a serious risk to the FDIC. The FDIC also has the authority to initiate enforcement actions against savings and loan associations, after giving the OTS an opportunity to take such action, and may terminate the deposit insurance if it determines that the institution has engaged or is engaging in unsafe or unsound practices, or is in an unsafe or unsound condition. Currently, FDIC deposit insurance rates generally range from 7 basis points to 77.5 basis points, depending on the assessment risk classification assigned to the depository institution.
The FDIC may terminate the deposit insurance of any insured depository institution, including the Bank, if it determines after a hearing that the institution has engaged or is engaging in unsafe or unsound practices, is in an unsafe or unsound condition to continue operations, or has violated any applicable law, regulation, order or any condition imposed by an agreement with the FDIC. It also may suspend deposit insurance temporarily during the hearing process for the permanent termination of insurance, if the institution has no tangible capital. If insurance of accounts is terminated, the accounts at the institution at the time of the termination, less subsequent withdrawals, shall continue to be insured for a period of six months to two years, as determined by the FDIC. Management is aware of no existing circumstances which would result in termination of the deposit insurance of the Bank.
During the first quarter of fiscal 2010 the Board of the FDIC adopted a rule imposing a 5 basis point special assessment on insured institutions that was paid on September 30, 2009. Additionally, the FDIC imposed a prepaid risk-based assessment of premiums on all banks for the 2010 through 2012 periods in order to rebuild its insurance fund. The Bank paid $1.9 million in December and has a remaining prepaid balance of $1.5 million as of March 31, 2010.
The Bank and the Company are participants in the FDIC Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program (“TLGP”), adopted by the FDIC on November 21, 2008. The program has two components, the Debt Guarantee Program (“Debt Program”) and the Transaction Account Guarantee Program (“TAG Program”). Neither the Bank or the Company have issued any debt guaranteed by the Debt Program. The TAG Program, which has been extended to December 31, 2010, provides insurance for the full amount of business non-interest bearing transaction account balances. The FDIC charges an additional assessment for participation in the TAG program on the quarterly assessment invoices. The balances insured and the premium assessment are not material to the Company’s financial statements.
Federal Home Loan Bank System
The Bank is a member of the FHLB System, which consists of 12 regional FHLBs. The FHLB provides a central credit facility primarily for member institutions. The Bank, as a member of the FHLB, is required to acquire and hold shares of capital stock in that FHLB in an amount at least equal to 1% of the aggregate principal amount of its unpaid residential mortgage loans and similar obligations at the beginning of each year, or 1/20 of its advances (borrowings) from the FHLB, whichever is greater. The Bank was in compliance with this requirement with an investment in FHLB-Cincinnati stock, at March 31, 2010, of $5.0 million.
The FHLBs are required to provide funds for the resolution of insolvent thrifts and to contribute funds for affordable housing programs. These requirements could reduce the amount of dividends that the FHLBs pay to their members and could also result in the FHLBs imposing a higher rate of interest on advances to their members. FHLB dividends were 4.6% for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010. In the likely event that dividends are reduced, or interest on future FHLB-Cincinnati advances is increased, the Company’s net interest income will decline.
Ohio Regulation
As a savings and loan association organized under the laws of the State of Ohio, the Bank is subject to regulation by the ODFI. Regulation by the ODFI affects the Bank’s internal organization as well as its savings, mortgage lending, and other investment activities. Periodic examinations by the ODFI are usually conducted on a joint basis with the OTS but may also be conducted on an alternating basis. The Bank’s most recent examination during the third fiscal quarter of 2010 was conducted by the ODFI. Ohio law requires that the Bank maintain federal deposit insurance as a condition of doing business.
Under Ohio law, an Ohio association may buy any obligation representing a loan that would be a legal loan if originated by the Bank, subject to various requirements including: loans secured by liens on income-producing real estate may not exceed 20% of an association’s assets; consumer loans, commercial paper, and corporate debt securities may not exceed 20% of an association’s assets; loans for commercial, corporate, business, or agricultural purposes may not exceed 30% of an association’s assets, provided that an association’s required reserve must increase proportionately; certain other types of loans may be made for lesser percentages of the association’s assets; and, with certain limitations and exceptions, certain additional loans may be made if not in excess of 3% of the association’s total assets. In addition, no association may make real estate acquisition and development loans for primarily residential use to one borrower in excess of 2% of assets. The total investments in commercial paper or corporate debt of any issuer cannot exceed 1% of an association’s assets, with certain exceptions.
Ohio law authorizes Ohio-chartered associations to, among other things: (i) invest up to 15% of assets in the capital stock, obligations, and other securities of service corporations organized under the laws of Ohio, and an additional 20% of net worth may be invested in loans to majority owned service corporations; (ii) invest up to 10% of assets in corporate equity securities, bonds, debentures, notes, or other evidence of indebtedness; (iii) exceed limits otherwise applicable to certain types of investments (other than investments in service corporations) by and between 3% and 10% of assets, depending upon the level of the institution’s permanent stock, general reserves, surplus, and undivided profits; and (iv) invest up to 15% of assets in any loans or investments not otherwise specifically authorized or prohibited, subject to authorization by the institution’s board of directors.
An Ohio association may invest in such real property or interests therein as its board of directors deems necessary or convenient for the conduct of the business of the association, but the amount so invested may not exceed the net worth of the association at the time the investment is made. Additionally, an association may invest an amount equal to 10% of its assets in any other real estate. This limitation does not apply, however, to real estate acquired by foreclosure, conveyance in lieu of foreclosure, or other legal proceedings in relation to loan security interests.
Notwithstanding the above powers authorized under Ohio law and regulation, a state-chartered savings association, such as the Bank, is subject to certain limitations on its permitted activities and investments under federal law, which may restrict the ability of an Ohio-chartered association to engage in activities and make investments otherwise authorized under Ohio law.
Ohio has adopted statutory limitations on the acquisition of control of an Ohio savings and loan association by requiring the written approval of the ODFI prior to the acquisition by any person or company, as defined under the Ohio Revised Code, of a controlling interest in an Ohio association. Control exists, for purposes of Ohio law, when any person or company, either directly, indirectly, or acting in concert with one or more other persons or companies (a) acquires 15% of any class of voting stock, irrevocable proxies, or any combination thereof, (b) directs the election of a majority of directors, (c) becomes the general partner of the savings and loan association, (d) has influence over the management and policies of the savings and loan association, (e) has the ability to direct shareholder votes, or (f) anything else deemed to be control by the ODFI. The ODFI’s written permission is required when the total amount of control held by the acquiror was less than or equal to 25% control before the acquisition and more than 25% control after the acquisition, or when the total amount of control held by the acquiror was less than 50% before the acquisition and more than 50% after the acquisition. Ohio law also prescribes other situations in which the ODFI must be notified of the acquisition even though prior approval is not required. Any person or company, which would include a director, will not be deemed to be in control by virtue of an annual solicitation of proxies voted as directed by a majority of the board of directors.
Under certain circumstances, interstate mergers and acquisitions involving associations incorporated under Ohio law are permitted by Ohio law. A savings and loan association or savings and loan holding company with its principal place of business in another state may acquire a savings and loan association or savings and loan holding company incorporated under Ohio law if the laws of such other state permit an Ohio savings and loan association or an Ohio holding company reciprocal rights. Additionally, recently enacted legislation permits interstate branching by savings and loan associations incorporated under Ohio law.
Ohio law requires prior written approval of the Ohio Superintendent of Savings and Loans of a merger of an Ohio association with another savings and loan association or a holding company affiliate.
Holding Company Regulation
Holding Company Acquisitions. The Company is a registered savings and loan holding company within the meaning of Section 10 of the HOLA, and is subject to OTS examination and supervision as well as certain reporting requirements. Federal law generally prohibits a savings and loan holding company, without prior OTS approval, from acquiring the ownership or control of any other savings institution or savings and loan holding company, or all, or substantially all, of the assets or more than 5% of the voting shares thereof. These provisions also prohibit, among other things, any director or officer of a savings and loan holding company, or any individual who owns or controls more than 25% of the voting shares of such holding company, from acquiring control of any savings institution not a subsidiary of such savings and loan holding company, unless the acquisition is approved by the OTS.
Holding Company Activities. The Company operates as a unitary savings and loan holding company. The activities of the Company and its non-savings institution subsidiaries are restricted to activities traditionally permitted to multiple savings and loan holding companies and to financial holding companies under newly added provisions of the Bank Holding Company Act. Multiple savings and loan holding companies may:
| · | furnish or perform management services for a savings association subsidiary of a savings and loan holding company; |
| · | hold, manage or liquidate assets owned or acquired from a savings association subsidiary of a savings and loan holding company; |
| · | hold or manage properties used or occupied by a savings association subsidiary of a savings and loan holding company; |
| · | engage in activities determined by the Federal Reserve to be closely related to banking and a proper incident thereto; and |
| · | engage in services and activities previously determined by the Federal Home Loan Bank Board by regulation to be permissible for a multiple savings and loan holding company as of March 5, 1987. |
The activities financial holding companies may engage in include:
| · | lending, exchanging, transferring or investing for others, or safeguarding money or securities; |
| · | insuring, guaranteeing or indemnifying others, issuing annuities, and acting as principal, agent or broker for purposes of the foregoing; |
| · | providing financial, investment or economic advisory services, including advising an investment company; |
| · | issuing or selling interests in pooled assets that a bank could hold directly; |
| · | underwriting, dealing in or making a market in securities; and |
| · | merchant banking activities. |
If the OTS determines that there is reasonable cause to believe that the continuation by a savings and loan holding company of an activity constitutes a serious risk to the financial safety, soundness or stability of its subsidiary savings institution, the OTS may impose such restrictions as deemed necessary to address such risk. These restrictions include limiting the following:
| · | the payment of dividends by the savings institution; |
| · | transactions between the savings institution and its affiliates; and |
| · | any activities of the savings institution that might create a serious risk that the liabilities of the holding company and its affiliates may be imposed on the savings institution. |
Federal Securities Laws. The Company registered its common stock with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”). The Company is subject to the proxy and tender offer rules, insider trading reporting requirements and restrictions, and certain other requirements under the Exchange Act.
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Sarbanes-Oxley Act”) implemented legislative reforms intended to address corporate and accounting fraud. In addition to the establishment of an accounting oversight board which enforces auditing, quality control and independence standards, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act restricts provision of both auditing and consulting services by accounting firms. To ensure auditor independence, any non-audit services being provided to an audit client requires pre-approval by the company’s audit committee members. In addition, the audit partners must be rotated. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires chief executive officers and chief financial officers, or their equivalent, to certify to the accuracy of periodic reports filed with the SEC, subject to civil and criminal penalties if they knowingly or willfully violate this certification requirement. In addition, under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, counsel are required to report evidence of a material violation of the securities laws or a breach of fiduciary duty by a company to its chief executive officer or its chief legal officer, and, if such officer does not appropriately respond, to report such evidence to the audit committee or other similar committee of the board of directors or the board itself.
Longer prison terms now apply to corporate executives who violate federal securities laws, the period during which certain types of suits can be brought against a company or its officers has been extended, and bonuses issued to top executives prior to restatement of a company’s financial statements are now subject to disgorgement if such restatement was due to corporate misconduct. Executives are also prohibited from insider trading during retirement plan “blackout” periods, and loans to company executives are restricted. In addition, a provision directs that civil penalties levied by the SEC as a result of any judicial or administrative action under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act be deposited to a fund for the benefit of harmed investors. The Federal Accounts for Investor Restitution (“FAIR”) provision also requires the SEC to develop methods of improving collection rates. The legislation accelerates the time frame for disclosures by public companies, as they must immediately disclose any material changes in their financial condition or operations. Directors and executive officers must also provide information for most changes in ownership in a company’s securities within two business days of the change.
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act also increases the oversight of, and codifies certain requirements relating to audit committees of public companies and how they interact with the company’s “registered public accounting firm.” Audit Committee members must be independent and are barred from accepting consulting, advisory or other compensatory fees from the issuer. In addition, companies must disclose whether at least one member of the committee is a “financial expert,” as such term is defined by the SEC, and if not, why not. Under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, a registered public accounting firm is prohibited from performing statutorily mandated audit services for a company if such company’s chief executive officer, chief financial officer, comptroller, chief accounting officer or any person serving in equivalent positions has been employed by such firm and participated in the audit of such company during the one-year period preceding the audit initiation date. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act also prohibits any officer or director of a company or any other person acting under their direction from taking any action to fraudulently influence, coerce, manipulate or mislead any independent public or certified accountant engaged in the audit of the company’s financial statements for the purpose of rendering the financial statement’s materially misleading. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act also required the SEC to prescribe rules requiring inclusion of an internal control report and assessment by management in the annual report to stockholders. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires the registered public accounting firm that issues the audit report to attest to and report on management’s assessment of the company’s internal controls. In addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires that each financial report required to be prepared in accordance with, or reconciled to, generally accepted accounting principles and filed with the SEC reflect all material correcting adjustments that are identified by a registered public accounting firm in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and the rules and regulations of the SEC.
Federal and State Taxation
Federal Taxation. Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method which requires recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.
The Federal tax bad debt reserve method available to thrift institutions was repealed in 1996 for tax years beginning after 1995. As a result, the Company was required to change from the reserve method to the specific charge-off method to compute its bad debt deduction. The recapture amount resulting from the change in a thrift’s method of accounting for its bad debt reserves was taken into taxable income ratably (on a straight-line basis) over a six-year period.
Retained earnings as of March 31, 2010 include approximately $2.7 million for which no provision for Federal income tax has been made. This reserve (base year and supplemental) is frozen/not forgiven as certain events could trigger a recapture such as stock redemption or distributions to shareholders in excess of current or accumulated earnings and profits.
The Company’s federal income tax returns through March 31, 2006 have been closed by statute or examination.
Ohio Taxation. The Bank files Ohio franchise tax returns. For Ohio franchise tax purposes, savings institutions are currently taxed at a rate equal to 1.3% of taxable net worth. The Bank is not currently under audit with respect to its Ohio franchise tax returns.
Delaware Taxation. As a Delaware holding company not earning income in Delaware, the Company is exempt from Delaware corporate income tax but is required to file an annual report with and pay an annual franchise tax to the State of Delaware. The tax is imposed as a percentage of the capital base of the Company with an annual maximum of $165,000. The Company paid Delaware franchise taxes of $31,000 in fiscal 2010.
Except for the historical information contained herein, the matters discussed in this Form 10-K include certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act, which are intended to be covered by the safe harbors created thereby. Those statements include, but may not be limited to, all statements regarding the intent, belief and expectations of the Company and its management, such as statements concerning the Company's future profitability. Investors are cautioned that all forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties including, without limitation, factors detailed from time to time in the Company's filings with the SEC. Although the Company believes that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements contained herein are reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate. Therefore, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements included in this Form 10-K will prove to be accurate, and in light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking Statements included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that the objectives and plans of the Company will be achieved. The Company encounters a number of risks in the conduct of its business. A discussion of such risks follows.
The Company is subject to a number of general categories of risks that may adversely affect its financial condition or results of operations, many of which are outside of management’s direct control, though efforts are made to manage those risks while optimizing returns. Among the types of risks assumed are: (1) credit risk, which the risk of loss due to loan customer or other counterparties not being able to meet their financial obligations under agreed upon terms, (2) market risk, which is the risk of loss due to changes in the market value of assets and liabilities due to changes in market interest rates, foreign exchange rates, equity prices, and credit spreads, (3) liquidity risk, which is the risk of loss due to the possibility that funds may not be available to satisfy current or future commitments based on external macro market issues, investor and customer perception of financial strength, and events unrelated to the Company such as war, terrorism, or financial institution market specific issues, and (4) operational risk, which is the risk of loss due to human error, inadequate or failed internal systems and controls, violations of , or noncompliance with, laws, rules, regulations, prescribed practices, or ethical standards, and external influences such as market conditions, fraudulent activities, disasters, and security risks.
If one or more of the factors affecting our forward looking statements proves inaccurate, then our actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from those contemplated, expressed or implied by forward looking statements contained herein. Therefore, we caution you not to place undue reliance on our forward looking statements. Except as required by applicable law or regulation, we will not update our forward looking statements to reflect actual results, performance or achievements.
In addition to the other information included or incorporated by reference into this report, readers should carefully consider that the following important factors, among others, could materially impact the Company’s business, future results of operations, and future cash flows.
The Company’s results of operations are significantly dependent on economic conditions and related uncertainties. Commercial banking is affected, directly and indirectly, by domestic and international economic and political conditions and by governmental monetary and fiscal policies. Conditions such as inflation, recession, unemployment, volatile interest rates, real estate values, government monetary policy, international conflicts, the actions of terrorists and other factors beyond our control may adversely affect our results of operations. Changes in interest rates, in particular, could adversely affect our net interest income and have a number of other adverse effects on our operations, as discussed in the immediately succeeding risk factor. Adverse economic conditions also could result in an increase in loan delinquencies, foreclosures and nonperforming assets and a decrease in the value of the property or other collateral which secures our loans, all of which could adversely affect our results of operations. We are particularly sensitive to changes in economic conditions and related uncertainties in Northeast Ohio because we derive substantially all of our loans, deposits and other business from this area. Accordingly, we remain subject to the risks associated with prolonged declines in national or local economies. The current recession, with associated legislative and regulatory initiatives, may materially adversely affect the Company’s operations. One example of this affect is the increase in FDIC insurance premiums and special assessments due to bank failures.
Changes in interest rates could have a material adverse effect on our operations. The operations of financial institutions such as the Bank are dependent to a large extent on net interest income, which is the difference between the interest income earned on interest earning assets such as loans and investment securities and the interest expense paid on interest bearing liabilities such as deposits and borrowings. Changes in the general level of interest rates can affect our net interest income by affecting the difference between the weighted average yield earned on our interest earning assets and the weighted average rate paid on our interest bearing liabilities, or interest rate spread, and the average life of our interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities. Changes in interest rates also can affect our ability to originate loans; the value of our interest earning assets; our ability to obtain and retain deposits in competition with other available investment alternatives; and the ability of our borrowers to repay adjustable or variable rate loans. Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors, including governmental monetary policies, domestic and international economic and political conditions and other factors beyond our control. Although we believe that the estimated maturities of our interest earning assets currently are well balanced in relation to the estimated maturities of our interest bearing liabilities (which involves various estimates as to how changes in the general level of interest rates will impact these assets and liabilities), there can be no assurance that our profitability would not be adversely affected during any period of changes in interest rates.
The strength and stability of other financial institutions may adversely affect our business. The actions and commercial soundness of other financial institutions could affect the Company’s ability to engage in routine funding transactions. Financial services to institutions are interrelated as a result of trading, clearing, counterparty or other relationships. The Company has exposure to different industries and counterparties, and executes transactions with various counterparties in the financial industry, including brokers and dealers, commercial banks, mutual funds and other institutional clients. Recent defaults by financial services institutions, and even rumors or questions about one or more financial services institutions or the financial services industry in general, have led to marketwide liquidity problems and could lead to losses or defaults by us or by other institutions. Many of these transactions expose us to credit risk in the event of default of its counterparty or client. In addition, our credit risk may increase when the collateral held by us cannot be realized upon or is liquidated at prices not sufficient to recover the full amount of the loan. Any such losses could materially and adversely affect our results of operations.
There are increased risks involved with commercial real estate, construction, commercial business and consumer lending activities. Our lending activities include loans secured by existing commercial real estate. Commercial real estate lending generally is considered to involve a higher degree of risk than single-family residential lending due to a variety of factors, including generally larger loan balances, the dependency on successful completion or operation of the project for repayment, the difficulties in estimating loan terms which often do not require full amortization of the loan over its term and, instead, provide for a balloon payment at stated maturity. Our lending activities also include commercial business loans to small- to medium-sized businesses, which generally are secured by various equipment, machinery and other corporate assets, and a wide variety of consumer loans, including home equity and second mortgage loans, automobile loans, deposit account secured loans and unsecured loans. Although commercial business loans and consumer loans generally have shorter terms and higher interest rates than mortgage loans, they generally involve more risk than mortgage loans because of the nature of, or in certain cases the absence of, the collateral which secures such loans.
Our allowance for losses on loans may not be adequate to cover probable losses. We have established an allowance for loan losses which we believe is adequate to offset probable losses on our existing loans. There can be no assurance that any future declines in real estate market conditions, general economic conditions or changes in regulatory policies will not require us to increase our allowance for loan losses, which would adversely affect our results of operations and, possibly, our financial condition.
Growth Strategy. The Company has pursued and continues to pursue a strategy of organic growth. The success of the Company's growth strategy will depend largely upon its ability to manage its credit risk and control its costs while providing competitive products and services. This growth strategy may present special risks, such as the risk that the Company will not efficiently handle growth with its present operations, the risk of dilution of book value and earnings per share as a result of an acquisition, the risk that earnings will be adversely affected by the start-up costs associated with establishing new products and services, the risk that the Company will not be able to attract and retain qualified personnel needed for expanded operations, and the risk that its internal monitoring and control systems may prove inadequate.
Organizational Documents; Anti-Takeover Provisions. In addition to Ohio and federal laws and regulations governing changes in control of insured depository institutions, the Company's Articles of Incorporation and Code of Regulations contain certain provisions that may delay or make more difficult an acquisition of control of the Company. For example, the Company's Articles of Incorporation do not exempt the Company from the provisions of Ohio's "control share acquisition" and "merger moratorium" statutes. Assuming that the principal stockholders continue to retain the number of the outstanding voting shares of the Company that they presently own and the law of Delaware requires, as it presently does, at least two-thirds majority vote of the outstanding shares to approve a merger or other consolidation, unless the articles of incorporation of the constituent companies provide for a lower approval percentage for the transaction, which the Company's articles do not provide, such ownership position could be expected to deter any prospective acquirer from seeking to acquire ownership or control of the Company, and the principal stockholders would be able to defeat any acquisition proposal that requires approval of the Company's stockholders, if the principal stockholders chose to do so. In addition, the principal stockholders may make a private sale of shares of common stock of the Company that they own, including to a person seeking to acquire ownership or control of the Company. Further, the Company has 500,000 shares of authorized but unissued preferred stock, par value $ .10 per share, which may be issued in the future with such rights, privileges and preferences as are determined by the Board of Directors of the Company.
Limited Trading Market; Shares Eligible for Future Sale; Possible Volatility of Stock Price. The Company’s common stock is traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol "WAYN." During the 12 months ended March 31, 2010, the average weekly trading volume in the Company’s common stock was approximately 9,654 shares per week. There can be no assurance given as to the liquidity of the market for the common stock or the price at which any sales may occur, which price will depend upon, among other things, the number of holders thereof, the interest of securities dealers in maintaining a market in the common stock and other factors beyond the control of the Company. The market price of the common stock could be adversely affected by the sale of additional shares of common stock owned by the Company's current shareholders. The market price for the common stock could be subject to significant fluctuations in response to variations in quarterly and yearly operating results, general trends in the banking industry and other factors. In addition, the stock market can experience price and volume fluctuations that may be unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of affected companies. These broad fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of the common stock.
Dependence on Management. The Company's success depends to a great extent on its senior management, including its President, Phillip E. Becker, Chief Financial Officer, H. Stewart Fitz Gibbon III and Chief Operations Officer, Steven G. Dimos. The loss of their individual services could have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial stability and its operations. In addition, the Company's future performance depends on its ability to attract and retain key personnel and skilled employees, particularly at the senior management level. The Company's financial stability and its operations could be adversely affected if, for any reason, one or more key executive officers ceased to be active in the Company's management.
Competition. Banking institutions operate in a highly competitive environment. The Company competes with other commercial banks, credit unions, savings institutions, finance companies, mortgage companies, mutual funds, and other financial institutions, many of which have substantially greater financial resources than the Company. Certain of these competitors offer products and services that are not offered by the Company and certain competitors are not subject to the same extensive laws and regulations as the Company. Additionally, consolidation of the financial services industry in Ohio and in the Midwest in recent years has increased the level of competition. Recent and proposed regulatory changes may further intensify competition in the Company's market area.
Holding Company Structure; Government Regulations and Policies. The Company is a financial holding company, which is substantially dependent on the profitability of its subsidiaries and the upstream payment of dividends from the Bank to the Company. Under state and federal banking law, the payment of dividends by the Bank to the Company is subject to capital adequacy requirements. The inability of the Bank to generate profits and pay such dividends to the Company, or regulator restrictions on the payment of such dividends to the Company even if earned, would have an adverse effect on the financial condition and results of operations of the Company and the Company's ability to pay dividends to its shareholders.
Goodwill Impairment. Impairment of goodwill or other intangible assets could require charges to earnings, which could result in a negative impact on our results of operations. Under current accounting standards, goodwill and certain other intangible assets with indeterminate lives are no longer amortized but, instead, are evaluated for impairment periodically or when impairment indicators are present. Evaluation of goodwill and such other intangible assets could result in circumstances where the applicable intangible asset is deemed to be impaired for accounting purposes. Under such circumstances, the intangible asset’s impairment would be reflected as a charge to earnings in the period during which such impairment is identified.

ITEM 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
The Company’s common stock trades on the Nasdaq Capital Market using the symbol “WAYN.” The following table sets forth the high and low trading prices of the Company’s common stock during the two most recent fiscal years, together with the cash dividends declared.
| | | Cash |

Third quarter | $ 8.98 | $ 6.05 | $.120 |
Fourth quarter | $ 8.24 | $ 4.42 | $.050 |
As of April 15, 2010, the Company had 1,304 shareholders of record and 3,004,113 shares of common stock outstanding. This does not reflect the number of persons whose stock is in nominee or “street name” accounts through brokers.
Payment of dividends on the Company’s common stock is subject to determination and declaration by the Board of Directors and depends upon a number of factors, including capital requirements, regulatory limitations on the payment of dividends, the Company’s results of operations and financial condition, tax considerations, and general economic conditions. No assurance can be given that dividends will be declared or, if declared, what the amount of dividends will be, or whether such dividends, once declared, will continue.
The Company’s primary source of funds with which to pay dividends is cash and cash equivalents held at the holding company level and dividends from the Bank. The Bank’s ability to pay dividends to the Company is limited by OTS regulations, and the Bank is required to obtain OTS nonobjection to the payment of dividends to the Company. In determining whether to object to such dividends, the OTS considers whether (i) the Bank would be undercapitalized following the dividend, (ii) the dividend raises safety and soundness concerns, or (iii) the dividend violates any regulatory prohibition or policy.
In addition to the foregoing, earnings of the Company appropriated to bad debt reserves and deducted for federal income tax purposes are not available for payment of cash dividends or other distributions to stockholders without payment of taxes at the then-current tax rate by the Company on the amount of earnings removed from the reserves for such distributions. The Company intends to make full use of this favorable tax treatment and does not contemplate any distribution that would create federal tax liability.

ITEM 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
General
The consolidated financial statements include Wayne Savings Bancshares, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Wayne Savings Community Bank. Intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.
The Company’s net income is primarily dependent on its net interest income, which is the difference between interest income earned on its loan, mortgage-backed securities and investment portfolios, and its cost of funds consisting of interest paid on deposits and borrowings. The Company’s net income also is affected by its provision for loan losses, as well as the amount of noninterest income, including trust income, deposit service charges and gain on the sale of loans into the secondary market, and noninterest expense, such as salaries and employee benefits, federal deposit insurance premiums, occupancy and equipment costs, and income taxes. Earnings of the Company also are affected significantly by general economic and competitive conditions, particularly changes in market interest rates, government policies and actions of regulatory authorities as more fully described under “Risk Factors” above.
Business Strategy
The Company’s current business strategy is to operate a well-capitalized, profitable and community-oriented bank dedicated to providing quality service and products to its customers. The Company has sought to implement this strategy in recent years by: (1) closely monitoring the needs of customers and providing personal, quality customer service; (2) continuing the origination of a wide array of loan products in the Company’s market area; (3) managing interest rate risk exposure by better matching asset and liability maturities and rates; (4) increasing fee income, including the continuing growth of the trust department and participation in the secondary mortgage market; (5) managing asset quality; (6) maintaining a strong retail deposit base; (7) maintaining capital in excess of regulatory minimum requirements; and (8) emphasizing the commercial loan program to add high quality, higher yielding and shorter duration assets to the Company’s loan portfolio.
Discussion of Financial Condition Changes from March 31, 2009 to March 31, 2010
In addition to the historical information contained herein, the following discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Economic circumstances, the Company’s operations, and actual results could differ significantly from those discussed in forward-looking statements. Some of the factors that could cause or contribute to such differences are discussed herein but also include changes in the economy and interest rates in the nation and the Company’s general market area. The forward-looking statements contained herein include, but are not limited to, those with respect to the following matters: (1) management’s determination of the amount and adequacy of the allowance for loan losses; (2) the effect of changes in interest rates; (3) management’s opinion as to the effects of recent accounting pronouncements on the Company’s consolidated financial statements; and (4) management’s opinion as to the Bank’s ability to maintain regulatory capital at current levels. The Company considers the allowance for loan losses and related loss provision to be a critical accounting policy. A detailed discussion as to the application of such policy is set forth in Note 1 to the financial statements.
At March 31, 2010, total assets increased to $406.0 million from the $404.4 million total at March 31, 2009 mainly due to increases in cash and due from banks of $2.9 million, available-for-sale securities of $2.1 million, foreclosed assets held for sale of $2.3 million and prepaid FDIC assessment of $1.5 million, partially offset by a decrease in loans of $7.3 million. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, loans receivable decreased $7.3 million, or 2.9%, as the Bank originated and retained $62.2 million of loans, received payments of $66.5 million and transferred $3.0 million to foreclosed assets held for sale. Rather than reinvest funds from repayments on loans in long-term, fixed rate and lower yielding residential loans, management has invested in shorter term mortgage-backed securities to limit interest rate risk in the current rate environment.
At March 31, 2010 and 2009, the allowance for loan losses totaled $2.8 million, or 1.13% of total loans and $2.5 million, or 0.97%, of total loans, respectively. In determining the amount of the loan loss allowance at any point of time, management and the board systematically determine the risk of loss in the portfolio. First, delinquent nonresidential, multi-family and commercial loans are evaluated for potential impairment in carrying value. At March 31, 2010, all delinquent nonresidential, multi-family and commercial loans were analyzed, with $538,000 of the reserve being allocated to these categories of loans. The largest loan in this category totaled $1.3 million at March 31, 2010. The second step in determining the allowance for loan losses entails the application of historic loss experience to individual loan types in the portfolio. In addition to the historic loss percentage, management employs an additional risk percentage tailored to the Board’s and management’s perception of the overall risk in the economy. Finally, to provide additional assurance regarding the validity of the commercial loan risk rating system, management engages a third party loan reviewer who provides independent validation of the Bank’s loan grading process. Management recorded a $1.6 million provision for losses on loans for fiscal 2010, an increase of $575,000 over the $1.1 million recorded for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009, primarily due to the increase in non-performing loans and increased charge-offs.
Goodwill of $1.7 million is carried on the Company’s balance sheet as a result of the acquisition of Stebbins Bancshares in June 2004. In accordance with FASB ASC 350, this goodwill is tested for impairment on at least an annual basis. During fiscal 2009, the Company changed the date of its annual goodwill impairment test from December 31 to its fiscal year end date of March 31. Management evaluated the goodwill using an analysis of required measures of value, including the current stock price as an indicator of minority interest value, change of control multiples as a measure of controlling interest value and discounted cash flow analysis as a measure of going concern value and applied a weighting based on appraisal standards to arrive at a valuation conclusion that indicated no impairment at this time.
A prepaid asset of $1.5 million was created in the third fiscal quarter of 2010 due to the FDIC imposing a prepaid assessment on all insured institutions, including the Company’s subsidiary. The amount of the prepaid premium covered the fourth calendar quarter of 2009 and all of calendar years 2010, 2011 and 2012 and included a 5% deposit growth assumption. Actual deposit insurance premium expense is calculated by the FDIC on a quarterly basis, with the expense being charged to the prepaid asset. Any balance remaining in June 2013, will be refunded to the Company’s subsidiary bank.
Deposits totaled $311.9 million at March 31, 2010, an increase of $2.4 million, or 0.8%, from $309.5 million at March 31, 2009. Savings accounts increased by $5.3 million, or 11.6%, demand accounts increased $4.0 million, or 7.6%, and money market accounts increased $5.6 million, or 14.5%, partially offset by a decrease in certificates of deposit of $12.5 million, or 7.2%. The Company experienced an increase in low cost liquid deposit accounts as customers chose to keep funds in more liquid types of accounts due to the low level of market interest rates and as management exercised discipline during the period with regard to the pricing of retail certificates. In general, management attempts to benchmark retail certificate of deposit pricing to the cost of alternate sources of funds, including FHLB advances and brokered deposits. Exceptions are made to defend customer relationships with significant value to the Bank while allowing rate sensitive certificate of deposit shoppers to move to other alternatives.
Other short term borrowings decreased by $2.7 million as a result of a decrease in commercial repurchase agreements by rate sensitive customers, as reduced economic activity appears to be reducing excess cash balances for a number of the Company’s customers.
Advances from the FHLB decreased $500,000, from $46.0 million at March 31, 2009 to $45.5 million at March 31, 2010. During the period, $12 million in fixed rate and term advances matured and were renewed into $11.5 million of new fixed rate and term advances maturing in 2012 and 2014 to extend liability duration for interest rate risk management purposes at a cost lower than attempting to extend liability duration through the acquisition or retention of retail certificates of deposit.
Stockholders’ equity totaled $37.0 million, an increase of $2.6 million, or 7.5%, during the year ended March 31, 2010, due primarily to $2.2 million in net income for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, an increase of $900,000 in accumulated other comprehensive income resulting from the unrealized gains on available for sale securities during fiscal 2010 and amortization of the ESOP shares of $76,000. These increases were offset by dividends totaling $631,000 for fiscal 2010.
Comparison of Operating Results for the Years Ended March 31, 2010 and 2009
General
Net income totaled $2.2 million for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, an increase of $374,000 from net income for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009. The increase in net income was primarily attributable to an increase in net interest income of $1.1 million partially offset by an increase in the provision for losses on loans of $575,000.
Interest Income
Interest income decreased $1.5 million or 7.1%, to $19.9 million for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, compared to fiscal 2009. This decrease was mainly due to a decrease in the weighted-average yield on interest-earning assets to 5.25% from 5.67% for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, offset by an increase in the average balance of $1.0 million, or 0.3%. The yield decrease was primarily due to the reduction in overall market rates. These rate decreases have negatively affected the yields earned on the Company’s interest earning assets and the most immediate decrease is reflected in the yield on interest-bearing deposits.
Interest income on loans decreased $900,000, or 6.1%, for the year ended March 31, 2010, compared to fiscal 2009, due primarily to a 41 basis point decrease in the weighted-average yield on loans outstanding, offset by a $1.8 million, or 0.7%, increase in the average balance of loans year over year. The decrease in the yield was due to the decrease in market interest rates and the corresponding downward impact on new originations.
Interest income on securities decreased $539,000, or 9.2%, during fiscal 2010, compared to fiscal 2009, due primarily to a decrease of 33 basis points in the weighted-average yield to 4.66% as compared to 4.99%, from the comparable 2009 period, generally reflecting reinvestment in lower yielding mortgage backed securities as higher yielding securities prepaid or matured, and a decrease of $3.2 million, or 2.7%, in the average balance.
Interest income on interest-earning deposits decreased by $54,000, or 18.5%, for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, due primarily to a decrease in the weighted-average yield of 90 basis points to 1.80%, partially offset with an increase in the average balance of $2.4 million, or 22.1%. As previously mentioned, the decrease in the yield was primarily due to the overall decrease in market rates.
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, totaled $6.6 million, a decrease of $2.7 million, or 28.7%, compared to interest expense for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009. The decrease in interest expense resulted from a decrease in the weighted-average cost of funds of 72 basis points to 1.83% for fiscal 2010, combined with a decrease of $2.4 million, or 0.7%, in the average balance of deposits and borrowings outstanding in fiscal 2010.
Interest expense on deposits totaled $4.7 million for fiscal 2010, a decrease of $2.6 million, or 35.5%, compared to fiscal 2009. The decrease in deposit costs resulted from a decrease of 81 basis points in the weighted-average cost of deposits to 1.54% for fiscal 2010, combined with a decrease in the average balance outstanding of $5.1 million, or 1.6%. In addition, as noted earlier, a shift in the composition of deposits from higher cost certificates of deposit to lower cost checking and savings accounts contributed to the decrease in the cost of deposits, along with a general decline in overall market rates.
Interest expense on other short-term borrowings totaled $33,000 for the year ended March 31, 2010, a decrease of $34,000, or 50.7%, from the 2009 period, due primarily to a decrease in the weighted-average rate of 32 basis points to 0.40% for the fiscal year ended March 2010. The rate decrease, again, was the result of an overall decline in market rates.
Interest expense on borrowings totaled $1.9 million for the year ended March 31, 2010, an increase of $32,000, or 1.7%, from the 2009 period, due primarily to an increase in the average balance of $3.6 million, or 8.4%, partially offset with a decrease in the weighted-average rate of 41 basis points to 4.00% for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 as a result of lower interest rates on renewed advances. The increase in the average balance was due to increased borrowings to offset the runoff in deposits due to management’s strategic pricing strategy that focused on the maintenance of customer relationships while avoiding high cost retail deposits and management’s strategy of extending liability duration with advances to mitigate interest rate risk.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income totaled $13.3 million for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, an increase of $1.1 million, or 9.4%, from the amount for fiscal 2009. The average interest rate spread increased to 3.42% for fiscal 2010 from 3.12% for fiscal 2009. The net interest margin increased to 3.50% for fiscal 2010 from 3.21% for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009. The 42 basis point decrease in the yield on average interest earning assets was more than offset by the 72 basis point decrease in the cost of funds. As noted earlier, a decrease in overall market interest rates and shift in the composition of deposits from higher cost certificates of deposit to lower cost checking and savings accounts contributed to the decrease in the cost of deposits.
Provision for Losses on Loans
The Company recorded a provision for losses on loans totaling $1.6 million for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, compared to a provision for losses on loans of $1.1 million for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009. At March 31, 2010, all delinquent nonresidential, multi-family and commercial loans were analyzed, resulting in a specific valuation reserve allocation of $538,000. The increase in the provision expense also reflects an increase in the levels of delinquent loans and management’s analysis of economic conditions in the Bank’s market areas. In the opinion of management, as of March 31, 2010, the carrying value of all non-performing loans as of March 31, 2010, is expected to be realized.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income, consisting primarily of earnings on bank-owned life insurance policies, gains on sale of loans, gains on the sale of securities designated as available-for-sale, trust income and deposit service fees increased by $318,000, or 18.3%, to $2.1 million for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, from $1.7 million for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009, as all categories saw a year over year increase. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $136,000 in the gain on sale of loans and $122,000 in gain on the sale of available-for-sale securities. There were no sales of securities in fiscal year 2009. Available-for-sale securities were sold during fiscal 2010 to reduce credit risk exposure associated with private-label mortgage-backed securities and to reduce interest rate risk associated with callable securities. As described under Item 1 above, management engages in limited sales of newly originated loans to limit the buildup of interest rate risk on the balance sheet and to provide liquidity to accommodate additional refinancing activity. Deposit service fees, charges and other operating income resulted in an increase of $40,000, or 3.1%, over the previous year. Finally, both trust income and earnings on bank-owned life insurance were up by $18,000 and $2,000, respectively, as trust portfolio market values and insurance portfolio yields increased year over year.
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense increased by $453,000, or 4.4%, to $10.9 million for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, compared to the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009. The increase in noninterest expense was primarily due to an increase of $576,000 in federal deposit insurance premiums. During fiscal 2010, the FDIC both increased its assessment rate schedule and imposed a special assessment on all insured institutions. This increase was combined with an increase in salaries and employee benefits of $118,000, or 2.1%, primarily from merit increases and increased employee healthcare costs. These increases were offset by a decrease in occupancy and equipment expense of $184,000, or 9.0%, as result of decreased depreciation expense as older equipment was fully depreciated and management carefully controlled the purchase of new capital items and reduced data processing costs associated with new equipment and renegotiated data processing contracts. Franchise taxes also decreased $94,000 year over year mainly due to a receivable reduction in 2009 from an amendment of prior period returns.
Federal Income Taxes
Federal income tax expense was $606,000 for the year ended March 31, 2010, reflecting an increase of $60,000 from fiscal 2009 primarily due to an increase of $434,000 in pre-tax income, partially offset by additional tax-exempt securities purchased during the year. The difference in the effective tax rate of 21.3% from the 34% statutory rate was mainly due to the beneficial effects of income from the cash surrender value of life insurance and other tax-exempt obligations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Bank’s primary sources of funds are deposits, principal repayments and prepayments on loans and mortgage-backed securities, maturities of investment securities and other short-term investments, and earnings and funds provided from operations. While scheduled principal repayments on loans and mortgage-backed securities are a relatively predictable source of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by the general level of interest rates, economic conditions and competition. The Bank manages the pricing of deposits to maintain a desired level of deposits and cost of funds. In addition, the Bank invests excess funds in federal funds and other short-term interest-earning assets, which provide liquidity to meet lending requirements. Federal funds sold and other liquid assets outstanding at March 31, 2010 and 2009, amounted to $129.7 million and $124.5 million, respectively. For additional information about cash flows from the Company’s operating, financing and investing activities, see the Statements of Cash Flows included in the Consolidated Financial Statements.
A major portion of the Bank’s liquidity consists of cash and cash equivalents, which are a product of operating, investing and financing activities. The primary sources of cash are net income, principal repayments on loans and mortgage-backed securities, proceeds from deposits and advances from the FHLB, and sales of securities. Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of business management. If the Bank requires funds beyond its ability to generate funds internally, borrowing agreements exist with the FHLB, which provide an additional source of funds. At March 31, 2010, the Company had $45.5 million in outstanding advances from the FHLB. At March 31, 2010, the Company had additional borrowing capacity from the FHLB totaling $40.2 million based on the Bank’s one-to four-family residential mortgage loans, mortgage-backed securities, home equity lines of credit, second mortgage loans and multifamily loans. The Bank also has pledged $19.2 million to secure a line of credit with the Federal Reserve Bank of $17.1 million. The Bank has the ability to pledge remaining investments and mortgage-backed securities of $57.2 million which would allow the Bank the ability to borrow additional funds from the FHLB.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices
The consolidated financial statements of the Company and notes thereto, presented elsewhere herein, have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars, without considering the changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of the Company’s operations. Unlike most industrial companies, nearly all the assets and liabilities of the Company are monetary. As a result, interest rates have a greater impact on the Company’s performance than do the effect of general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the prices of goods and services.
ITEM 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Asset and Liability Management-Interest Rate Sensitivity Analysis
The Bank, like other financial institutions, is subject to interest rate risk to the extent that interest-earning assets reprice at a different time than interest-bearing liabilities. As part of its effort to monitor and manage interest rate risk, the Bank uses the “net portfolio value” (“NPV”) methodology adopted by the OTS as part of its interest rate sensitivity regulations. The application of NPV methodology illustrates certain aspects of the Bank’s interest rate risk.
Generally, NPV is the discounted present value of the difference between incoming cash flows on interest-earning and other assets and outgoing cash flows on interest-bearing and other liabilities. The application of the methodology attempts to quantify interest rate risk as the change in the NPV, which would result from a theoretical change in market interest rates.
Asset and Liability Management-Interest Rate Sensitivity Analysis (continued)
Presented below, as of March 31, 2010 and 2009, is an analysis of the Bank’s interest rate risk as measured by changes in NPV for instantaneous and sustained 100, 200 and 300 basis point (1 basis point equals .01%) increases and a 100 and 200 basis point decrease in market interest rates.
As with any method of measuring interest rate risk, certain shortcomings are inherent in the NPV approach. For example, although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or periods of repricing, they may react in different degrees to changes in market interest rates. Also, the interest rates on certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in market interest rates, while interest rates on other types may lag behind changes in market rates. Further, in the event of a change in interest rates, expected rates of prepayment on loans and mortgage-backed securities and early withdrawal levels from certificates of deposit would likely deviate significantly from those assumed in making the risk calculations.

The Company’s policy in recent years had been to reduce its exposure to interest rate risk generally by better matching the maturities of its interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities. Strategies include originating ARM loans and other adjustable rate or short-term loans, as well as by purchasing short-term investments and mortgage-backed securities and extending liabilities through promoting cost effective long term retail certificates of deposit or the use of long-term FHLB advances. However, particularly in the current interest rate and credit market environment, borrowers typically prefer fixed rate loans to ARM loans. Accordingly, ARM loan originations were very limited during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010.
The net effect of this continuing shift in customer preference for longer duration loans and shorter duration deposits has been to expose the Company to increased interest rate risk.
The Company has an Asset-Liability Management Committee (“ALCO”), which is responsible for reviewing the Company’s asset-liability policies. The Committee meets and reports monthly to the Board of Directors on interest rate risks and trends, as well as liquidity and capital ratios and requirements. The Bank has operated within the framework of its prescribed NPV risk range for each of the last three years.

Our audits also included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Wayne Savings Bancshares, Inc. as of March 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended March 31, 2010, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Note 1: | Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
Nature of Operations
The Company’s revenues, operating income and assets are almost exclusively derived from banking. Accordingly, all of the Company’s banking operations are considered by management to be aggregated in one reportable operating segment. Customers are mainly located in Wayne, Holmes, Ashland, Medina and Stark Counties and the surrounding localities in northeastern Ohio, and include a wide range of individuals, business and other organizations. Wayne has historically conducted its business through its main office in Wooster, Ohio.
The Company’s primary deposit products are checking, savings and term certificate accounts. Wayne Savings Community Bank’s primary lending products are residential mortgage, commercial and installment loans. Substantially all loans are secured by specific items of collateral including business assets, consumer assets and real estate. Commercial loans are expected to be repaid from cash flow from operations of businesses. Real estate loans are secured by both residential and commercial real estate. Net interest income is affected by the relative amount of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the interest received or paid on these balances. The level of interest rates paid or received by the Company can be significantly influenced by a number of environmental factors, such as governmental monetary policy, that are outside of management’s control.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Wayne Savings Bancshares, Inc. (“Wayne” or the “Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Wayne Savings Community Bank (the “Bank”). All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses and the valuation of real estate acquired in connection with foreclosures or in satisfaction of loans. In connection with the determination of the allowance for loan losses and the valuation of foreclosed assets held for sale, management obtains independent appraisals for significant properties.
Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2010 and 2009
Cash Equivalents (continued)
One or more of the financial institutions holding the Company’s cash accounts are participating in the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation’s (“FDIC”) Transaction Account Guarantee Program. Under the program, through December 31, 2010, all noninterest-bearing transaction accounts at these institutions are fully guaranteed by the FDIC for the entire amount in the account.
For financial institutions opting out of the FDIC’s Transaction Account Guarantee Program or interest-bearing cash accounts, the FDIC’s insurance limits increased to $250,000, effective October 3, 2008. The increase in federally insured limits is currently set to expire December 31, 2013. At March 31, 2010, the Company’s cash accounts at institutions other than the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati and the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland did not exceed federally insured limits.
Securities
Certain debt securities that management has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as “held-to-maturity” and recorded at amortized cost. Securities not classified as held-to-maturity are classified as “available-for-sale” and recorded at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported in other comprehensive income. Purchase premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the terms of the securities. Gains and losses on the sale of securities are recorded on the trade date and are determined using the specific identification method.
Effective April 1, 2009, the Company adopted new accounting guidance related to recognition and presentation of other-than-temporary impairment (ASC 320-10). When the Company does not intend to sell a debt security, and it is more likely than not, the Company will not have to sell the security before recovery of its cost basis, it recognizes the credit component of an other-than-temporary impairment of a debt security in earnings and the remaining portion in other comprehensive income. For held-to-maturity debt securities, the amount of an other-than-temporary impairment recorded in other comprehensive income for the noncredit portion of a previous other-than-temporary impairment is amortized prospectively over the remaining life of the security on the basis of the timing of future estimated cash flows of the security.
Prior to the adoption of the recent accounting guidance on April 1, 2009, management considered, in determining whether other-than-temporary impairment exists, (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer and (3) the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.
Loans Held for Sale
Mortgage loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at the lower of cost or fair value in the aggregate. Net unrealized losses, if any, are recognized through a valuation allowance by charges to noninterest income. Gains and losses on loan sales are recorded in noninterest income, and direct loan origination costs and fees are deferred at origination of the loan and are recognized in noninterest income upon sale of the loan. At March 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company did not have any loans held for sale.

March 31, 2010 and 2009
Loans
Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoffs are reported at their outstanding principal balances adjusted for unearned income, charge-offs, the allowance for loan losses, any unamortized deferred fees or costs on originated loans and unamortized premiums or discounts on purchased loans.
For loans amortized at cost, interest income is accrued based on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, as well as premiums and discounts, are deferred and amortized as a level yield adjustment over the respective term of the loan.
The accrual of interest on mortgage and commercial loans is discontinued at the time the loan is 90 days past due unless the credit is well-secured and in process of collection. Past due status is determined based on contractual terms of the loan. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual or charged off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful.
All interest accrued but not collected for loans that are placed on nonaccrual or charged off are reversed against interest income. The interest on these loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses is established as losses are estimated to have occurred through a provision for loan losses charged to income. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.
The allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a regular basis by management and is based upon management’s periodic review of the collectibility of the loans in light of historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral and prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.
The allowance consists of allocated and general components. The allocated component relates to loans that are classified as impaired. For those loans that are classified as impaired, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows (or collateral value or observable market price) of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan. The general component covers nonclassified loans and is based on historical charge-off experience and expected loss given default derived from the Company’s internal risk rating process. Other adjustments may be made to the allowance for pools of loans after an assessment of internal or external influences on credit quality that are not fully reflected in the historical loss or risk rating data.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2010 and 2009
A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis for commercial and construction loans by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s obtainable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.
Large groups of smaller balance homogenous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, the Company does not separately identify individual consumer and residential loans for impairment measurements.
Premises and Equipment
Depreciable assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is charged to expense using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. An accelerated method is used for tax purposes. Leasehold improvements are also stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and are depreciated using the straight line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets or the term of the lease, whichever is shorter.
Federal Home Loan Bank Stock
The Company is required as a condition of membership in the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati (“FHLB”) to maintain an investment in FHLB common stock. The required investment in the common stock is based on a predetermined formula. The stock is redeemable at par and, therefore, its cost is equivalent to its redemption value. At March 31, 2010, the FHLB placed no restrictions on redemption of shares in excess of a member’s required investment in the stock.
Foreclosed Assets Held for Sale
Assets acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are held for sale and are initially recorded at fair value less estimated selling costs, at the date of foreclosure, establishing a new cost basis. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management and the assets are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Revenue and expenses from operations and changes in the valuation allowance are included in net income or expense from foreclosed assets.
Bank-Owned Life Insurance
The Bank has purchased life insurance policies on certain key executives. Bank-owned life insurance is recorded at its cash surrender value, or the amount that can be realized.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets
The composition of goodwill and other intangible assets, all of which is core deposit intangible, at March 31, 2010 and 2009, is as follows:
| | 2010 | | | 2009 | |
| | (In thousands) | |
Goodwill | | $ | 1,719 | | | $ | 1,719 | |
Other intangible assets - gross | | | 974 | | | | 974 | |
Other intangible assets - amortization | | | (596 | ) | | | (503 | ) |
| | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | |
Total | | $ | 2,097 | | | $ | 2,190 | |
The Company recorded amortization relative to intangible assets totaling $93,000 and $106,000 for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Company anticipates $91,000 of amortization for fiscal 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014. Such amortization is derived using the straight line method for the core deposit asset over ten years. Pursuant to FASB ASC 350, the Company is required to annually test goodwill and other intangible assets for impairment. During fiscal 2009, the Company changed the date of its annual goodwill impairment test from December 31 to its fiscal year end date of March 31. Management believes that the accounting change is preferable in the circumstances because it incorporates the most current market and other information to produce a goodwill impairment analysis that will provide timely and accurate information to the shareholders and other users of the Company’s financial statements. The Company’s testing of goodwill and other intangible assets in the current fiscal year indicated there was no impairment in the carrying value of these assets.
Mortgage Servicing Rights
Mortgage servicing assets are recognized separately when rights are acquired through sale of financial assets. Under the servicing assets and liabilities accounting guidance (ASC 860-50), servicing rights resulting from the sale or securitization of loans originated by the Company are initially measured at fair value at the date of transfer. The Company subsequently measures each class of servicing asset using either the fair value or the amortization method. The Company has elected to subsequently measure the mortgage servicing rights for consumer mortgage loans using the amortization method. Under the amortization method, servicing rights are amortized in proportion to and over the period of estimated net servicing income. The amortized assets are assessed for impairment or increased obligation based on fair value at each reporting date.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2010 and 2009
Fair value is based on market prices for comparable mortgage servicing contracts, when available, or alternatively, is based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income. The valuation model incorporates assumptions that market participants would use in estimating future net servicing income, such as the cost to service, the discount rate, the custodial earnings rate, an inflation rate, ancillary income, prepayment speeds and default rates and losses. These variables change from quarter to quarter as market conditions and projected interest rates change, and may have an adverse impact on the value of the mortgage servicing right and may result in a reduction to noninterest income.
Each class of separately recognized servicing assets subsequently measured using the amortization method are evaluated and measured for impairment. Impairment is determined by stratifying rights into tranches based on predominant characteristics, such as interest rate, loan type and investor type. Impairment is recognized through a valuation allowance for an individual tranche, to the extent that fair value is less than the carrying amount of the servicing assets for that tranche. The valuation allowance is adjusted to reflect changes in the measurement of impairment after the initial measurement of impairment. Fair value in excess of the carrying amount of servicing assets for that stratum is not recognized.
Servicing fee income is recorded for fees earned for servicing loans. The fees are based on a contractual percentage of the outstanding principal or a fixed amount per loan and are recorded as income when earned. The amortization of mortgage servicing rights is netted against loan servicing fee income.
Treasury Stock
Common stock shares repurchased are recorded at cost. Cost of shares retired or reissued is determined using the first-in, first-out method.
Stock Options
The Company has a stock-based employee compensation plan, which is described more fully in Note 15.
The Company accounts for the plan in accordance with the fair value recognition provisions of FASB ASC 718-10, “Stock Compensation.”
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with income tax accounting guidance (ASC 740, Income Taxes). The income tax accounting guidance results in two components of income tax expense: current and deferred. Current income tax expense reflects taxes to be paid or refunded for the current period by applying the provisions of the enacted tax law to the taxable income or excess of deductions over revenues. The Company determines deferred income taxes using the liability (or balance sheet) method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is based on the tax effects of the differences between the book and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and enacted changes in tax rates and laws are recognized in the period in which they occur.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2010 and 2009
Deferred income tax expense results from changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities between periods. Deferred tax assets are recognized if it is more likely than not, based on the technical merits, that the tax position will be realized or sustained upon examination. The term more likely than not means a likelihood of more than 50 percent; the terms examined and upon examination also include resolution of the related appeals or litigation processes, if any. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is initially and subsequently measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. The determination of whether or not a tax position has met the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold considers the facts, circumstances and information available at the reporting date and is subject to the management’s judgment. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of evidence available, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized.
The Company recognizes interest and penalties on income taxes as a component of income tax expense.
Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share represents income available to common stockholders divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share reflects additional potential common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued, as well as any adjustment to income that would result from the assumed issuance. Potential common shares that may be issued by the Company relate solely to outstanding stock options and are determined using the treasury stock method.
Treasury stock shares and unearned ESOP shares are not deemed outstanding for earnings per share calculations.
Comprehensive Income
Comprehensive income consists of net income and other comprehensive income, net of applicable income taxes. Other comprehensive income includes unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on available-for-sale securities and changes in the funded status of the defined benefit pension plan.
Current Economic Conditions
The current economic environment presents all financial institutions with unprecedented circumstances and challenges which in some cases have resulted in large declines in the fair values of investments and other assets, constraints on liquidity and significant credit quality problems, including severe volatility in the valuation of real estate and other collateral supporting loans. Thus far, these trends have only modestly affected the Company. The financial statements have been prepared using values and information currently available to the Company. Given the volatility of current economic conditions, the values of assets and liabilities recorded in the financial statements could change rapidly, resulting in material future adjustments in asset values, the allowance for loan losses and capital that could negatively impact the Company’s ability to meet regulatory capital requirements and maintain sufficient liquidity.

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. The Company’s advertising expense totaled $53,000, and $77,000 for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior years’ financial statements to conform to the 2010 financial statement presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on net income.

The carrying value of securities pledged as collateral, to secure public deposits and for other purposes, was $57.9 million and $50.6 million at March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Gross gains of $135,000 and losses of $13,000 resulting from the sales of available-for-sale securities were recognized in fiscal year 2010. The Company had no sales of securities in fiscal 2009.
Certain investments in debt securities are reported in the financial statements at an amount less than their historical cost. The total fair value of these investments at March 31, 2010 and 2009, was $31.8 million and $21.4 million, which represented approximately 26% and 18%, respectively, of the Company’s aggregate available-for-sale and held-to-maturity investment portfolio. These declines resulted primarily from changes in market interest rates.
Based on evaluation of available evidence, including recent changes in market interest rates, credit rating information and information obtained from regulatory filings, management believes the declines in fair value for these securities are temporary at March 31, 2010.
Should the impairment of any of these securities become other than temporary, the cost basis of the investment will be reduced and the resulting loss recognized in net income in the period the other-than-temporary impairment is identified.

The unrealized losses on the Company’s investments in direct obligations of U.S. government agencies, mortgage-backed securities of government sponsored entities, private-label collateralized mortgage obligations and municipal securities were caused by changes in interest rates. The contractual terms of those investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized cost bases of the investments. Because the Company does not intend to sell the investments and it is not more likely than not the Company will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2010.

A loan is considered impaired, in accordance with the impairment accounting guidance (ASC 310-10-35-16), when based on current information and events, it is probable the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due from the borrower in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan. Impaired loans include nonperforming commercial loans but also include loans modified in troubled debt restructurings where concessions have been granted to borrowers experiencing financial difficulties. These concessions could include a reduction in the interest rate on the loan, payment extensions, forgiveness of principal, forbearance or other actions intended to maximize collection.

Prior to fiscal 1997, Wayne Savings was allowed a special bad debt deduction based on a percentage of earnings, generally limited to 8% of otherwise taxable income and subject to certain limitations based on aggregate loans and deposit account balances at the end of the year. This cumulative percentage of earnings bad debt deduction totaled approximately $2.7 million as of March 31, 2010. If the amounts that qualified as deductions for federal income taxes are later used for purposes other than bad debt losses, including distributions in liquidation, such distributions will be subject to federal income taxes at the then current corporate income tax rate. The amount of unrecognized deferred tax liability relating to the cumulative bad debt deduction was approximately $918,000 at March 31, 2010.

the Company’s and the Bank’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total and Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier I capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). Management believes, as of March 31, 2010, that the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.
As of March 31, 2010, the most recent notification from the Office of Thrift Supervision categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well-capitalized, the Bank must maintain capital ratios as set forth in the table below. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s category.

Plan assets are held by a bank-administered trust fund, which invests the plan assets in accordance with the provisions of the plan agreement. The plan agreement permits investment in mutual funds that may invest in common stocks, corporate bonds and debentures, U.S. Government securities, certain insurance contracts, real estate and other specified investments, based on certain target allocation percentages.
Asset allocation is primarily based on a strategy to provide stable earnings while still permitting the plan to recognize potentially higher returns through an investment in equity securities. The target asset allocation percentages for 2010 are as follows:

The Company has an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”) covering substantially all employees of the Company. The ESOP acquired 163,265 shares of Company common stock at $10.00 per share in 2003 with funds provided by a loan from the Company. Accordingly, $1.6 million of common stock acquired by the ESOP was shown as a reduction of stockholders’ equity. Shares are released to participants proportionately as the loan is repaid. Dividends on allocated shares are recorded as dividends and charged to retained earnings. Compensation expense is recorded equal to the average fair market value of the stock during the year when contributions, which are determined annually by the Board of Directors of the Company, are made to the ESOP.
ESOP expense for the years ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, was $76,000 and $124,000, respectively.
Share information for the ESOP is as follows at March 31, 2010 and 2009:

Fair value of unearned shares at March 31 | | $ | 682,033 | | | $ | 536,428 | |
At March 31, 2010, the fair value of the 80,325 allocated shares held by the ESOP was approximately $679,000.
In addition to the defined benefit plan and ESOP, the Company has a 401(k) plan covering substantially all employees. The Company’s 401(k) matching percentage was 100% of the first 4% contributed by the employee and 50% of the employees’ next 2% of contributions for 2010 and 2009. Expense related to the 401(k) plan totaled $162,000 and $157,000 for the years ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Finally, the Company provides post-retirement benefits to certain officers of the Company under split-dollar life insurance policies. The Company accounts for the policies in accordance with ASC 715-60, which requires companies to recognize a liability and related compensation costs for endorsement split-dollar life insurance policies that provide a benefit to an employee extending to postretirement periods. The liability is recognized based on the substantive agreement with the employee. During fiscal 2010 and 2009, the Company recorded expense totaling $26,000 and $24,000, respectively, for the split-dollar life insurance benefits.

Note 15: | Stock Option Plan |
The Company’s Share Option Plan (the Plan), which was approved by stockholders, permits the grant of up to 204,081 share options to its employees. The Company believes that such awards better align the interests of its employees with those of its stockholders. Option awards are granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company’s stock at the date of grant. All outstanding options are fully exercisable. Certain option and share awards provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control (as defined in the Plan). There was no compensation cost recognized in the income statement for share-based payment arrangements during the years ended March 31, 2010 and 2009.
A summary of option activity under the Plan for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 is presented below:

Note 17: | Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments |
The Company accounts for fair value measurements in accordance with FASB ASC 820-10. FASB ASC 820-10 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.
FASB ASC 820-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. FASB ASC 820-10 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
| Level 1 | Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities |
| Level 2 | Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities |
| Level 3 | Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities |
Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis and recognized in the accompanying balance sheets, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy.
Available-for-sale securities
Where quoted market prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or discounted cash flows. Level 2 securities include U.S. Government agencies, mortgage-backed securities, certain collateralized mortgage obligations and certain municipal securities. In certain cases where Level 1 or Level 2 inputs are not available, securities are classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy and include other less liquid securities.

Foreclosed Assets Held for Sale
Assets acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are held for sale and are initially recorded at fair value (based on current appraised value) at the date of foreclosure, establishing a new cost basis. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management and the assets are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Management has determined fair value measurements on foreclosed assets held for sale primarily through evaluations of appraisals performed, and current and past offers for the real estate under evaluation.

The following table presents estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments. The fair values of certain of these instruments were calculated by discounting expected cash flows, which involves significant judgments by management and uncertainties. Fair value is the estimated amount at which financial assets or liabilities could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. Because no market exists for certain of these financial instruments and because management does not intend to sell these financial instruments, the Company does not know whether the fair values shown below represent values at which the respective financial instruments could be sold individually or in the aggregate.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments.
Cash and Cash Equivalents, Interest Receivable and Federal Home Loan Bank Stock
The carrying amount approximates fair value.
Held-to-Maturity Securities
Fair value is based on quoted market prices if available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair value is estimated based on quoted market prices of similar securities.
Wayne Savings Bancshares, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2010 and 2009
Loans
The fair value of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. Loans with similar characteristics were aggregated for purposes of the calculations.
Deposits
Deposits include savings accounts, checking accounts and certain money market deposits. The carrying amount approximates fair value. The fair value of fixed-maturity time deposits is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.
Interest Payable, Other Short-Term Borrowings and Advances From Borrowers for Taxes and Insurance
The carrying amount approximates fair value.
Federal Home Loan Bank Advances
Rates currently available to the Company for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities are used to estimate the fair value of existing debt.
Commitments to Originate Loans, Letters of Credit and Lines of Credit
The fair value of commitments to originate loans is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the counterparties. For fixed-rate loan commitments, fair value also considers the difference between current levels of interest rates and the committed rates. The fair values of letters of credit and lines of credit are based on fees currently charged for similar agreements or on the estimated cost to terminate or otherwise settle the obligations with the counterparties at the reporting date. Fair values of commitments were not material at March 31, 2010 and 2009.
Note 18: | Commitments and Credit Risk |
At March 31, 2010 and 2009, total commercial and commercial real estate loans made up 40% of the loan portfolio for both years, with most of these loans secured by commercial real estate and business assets mainly in Ohio. Installment loans account for approximately 1% of the loan portfolio in both fiscal 2010 and 2009. These loans are secured by consumer assets including automobiles, which account for 55% and 58%, respectively, of the installment loan portfolio. Real estate loans comprise 85% and 86% of the loan portfolio as of March 31, 2010 and 2009, and primarily include first mortgage loans on residential properties and home equity lines of credit. Included in cash and due from banks as of March 31, 2010 and 2009, is $2.3 million and $2.8 million, respectively, of uninsured deposits in the form of branch cash on hand.

Commitments to Originate Loans
Commitments to originate loans 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 a portion of the commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Each customer’s creditworthiness is evaluated on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies, but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, commercial real estate and residential real estate.
At March 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company had outstanding commitments to originate loans aggregating approximately $2.2 million and $9.1 million, respectively. The commitments extended over varying periods of time with the majority being disbursed within a one-year period.
Mortgage loans in the process of origination represent amounts that the Company plans to fund within a normal period of one year. Total mortgage loans in the process of origination amounted to approximately $1.4 million and $931,000 at March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Non-residential commercial real estate loans had undisbursed amounts of $588,000 and undisbursed participation non-residential loans of $479,000 at March 31, 2010. Non-residential commercial real estate loans had undisbursed amounts of $969,000 and undisbursed participation non-residential loans of $457,000 at March 31, 2009.
Standby Letters of Credit
Standby letters of credit are irrevocable conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Financial standby letters of credit are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements, including commercial paper, bond financing and similar transactions. Performance standby letters of credit are issued to guarantee performance of certain customers under non-financial contractual obligations. The credit risk involved in issuing standby letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers. Fees for letters of credit are initially recorded by the Company as deferred revenue and are included in earnings at the termination of the respective agreements.
Should the Company be obligated to perform under the standby letters of credit, the Company may seek recourse from the customer for reimbursement of amounts paid.
The Company had total outstanding standby letters of credit amounting to $160,000 and $165,000, at March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, with terms not exceeding eleven months. At both March 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company had no deferred revenue under standby letter of credit agreements.

Lines of Credit
Lines of credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Lines of credit generally have fixed expiration dates. Since a portion of the line may expire without being drawn upon, the total unused lines do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Each customer’s creditworthiness is evaluated on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, commercial real estate and residential real estate. Management uses the same credit policies in granting lines of credit as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.
At March 31, 2010, the Company had granted unused lines of credit to borrowers aggregating approximately $13.4 million and $16.4 million for commercial lines and open-end consumer lines, respectively. At March 31, 2009, unused lines of credit to borrowers aggregated approximately $17.0 million for commercial lines and $12.2 million for open-end consumer lines, respectively.

Note 19: | Recent Accounting Developments |
FASB ASC 805-10 concerning business combinations seeks to improve the relevance, representational faithfulness and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial reports about a business combination and its effects. This guidance introduces new accounting concepts, and several of these changes have the potential to generate greater earnings volatility, in connection with and after an acquisition. Some of the more significant changes include:
| · | Transaction costs and restructuring charges will now be expensed. |

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2010 and 2009
| · | The accounting for certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed will change significantly. The most significant to the Company being that allowance for loan losses at acquisition date will be eliminated. |
| · | Contingent consideration will be measured at fair value until settled. |
| · | Equity issued in an acquisition will be valued at the closing date, as opposed to the announcement date. |
| · | Material adjustments made to the initial acquisition will be recorded back to the acquisition date. |
FASB ASC 805-10 applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008, and may not be applied before that date. The Company adopted FASB ASC 805-10 effective April 1, 2009, as required, without material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
FASB ASC 810-10 concerning noncontrolling interests in consolidated financial statements establishes accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. It clarifies that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements. Before this statement was issued, limited guidance existed for reporting noncontrolling interests. As a result, considerable diversity in practice existed. So called minority interests were reported in the consolidated statement of financial position as liabilities or in the mezzanine section between liabilities and equity. This guidance improves comparability by eliminating that diversity. The FASB ASC 810-10 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company adopted FASB ASC 810-10 effective April 1, 2009, as required, without material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
FASB ASC 815-10 concerning disclosures about derivative instruments and hedging activities was issued in March 2008 and amends and expands the disclosure requirements of previous guidance to provide greater transparency about (i) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (ii) how derivative instruments and related hedge items are accounted for under FASB ASC 815-10 and its related interpretations and (iii) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows. To meet those objectives, FASB ASC 815-10 requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. FASB ASC 815-10 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. The Company adopted FASB ASC 815-10 effective April 1, 2009, as required, without material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

FASB ASC 805-20 concerns accounting for assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination that arise from contingencies and clarifies previous guidance regarding the initial recognition and measurement, subsequent measurement and accounting and disclosure of assets and liabilities arising from contingencies in a business combination. FASB ASC 805-20 eliminates the distinction between contractual and noncontractual contingencies discussed in FASB ASC 805-10, specifies whether contingencies should be measured at fair value or in accordance with FASB ASC 450-10, provides application guidance on subsequent accounting for assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination that arise from contingencies and establishes new disclosure requirements. FASB ASC 805-20 is effective for assets or liabilities arising from contingencies in business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company adopted FASB ASC 805-20 effective April 1, 2009, as required, without material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
FASB ASC 820-10 concerns determining fair value when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased and identifying transactions that are not orderly. The guidance was issued on April 9, 2009 and provides additional guidance for estimating fair value when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased. FASB ASC 820-10 also includes guidance on identifying circumstances that indicate a transaction is not orderly. Even if there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity regardless of valuation technique, the objective of a fair value measurement remains the same. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction (that is, not a forced liquidation or distressed sale) between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. FASB ASC 820-10 is effective for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009, only if FASB ASC 320-10 and FASB ASC 825-10 are adopted concurrently. FASB ASC 820-10 does not require disclosures for earlier periods presented for comparative purposes at initial adoption. The Company adopted FASB ASC 820-10 effective June 30, 2009, as required, without material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
FASB ASC 320-10 concerns recognition and presentation of other-than-temporary impairments and was issued on April 9, 2009. The guidance requires disclosures about fair value of financial instruments for interim reporting periods of publicly traded companies as well as in annual financial statements. FASB ASC 320-10 is effective for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009, only if FASB ASC 820-10 and FASB ASC 825-10 are adopted concurrently. FASB ASC 320-10 does not require disclosures for earlier periods presented for comparative purposes at initial adoption. The Company adopted FASB ASC 320-10 effective June 30, 2009, as required, without material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

March 31, 2010 and 2009
FASB ASC 825-10 concerning interim disclosures about fair value of financial instruments was issued on April 9, 2009 and amends the other-than-temporary guidance in United States generally accepted accounting principles for debt securities to make the guidance more operational and to improve the presentation and disclosure of other-than-temporary impairments on debt and equity securities in the financial statements. FASB ASC 825-10 does not amend existing recognition and measurement guidance related to other-than-temporary impairments of equity securities and does not require disclosures for earlier periods presented for comparative purposes at initial adoption. Effective for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, early adoption is permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009, only if FASB ASC 820-10 and FASB ASC 320-10 are adopted concurrently. The Company adopted FASB ASC 825-10 effective June 30, 2009, as required, without material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
FASB ASC 855-10 concerning subsequent events was issued in May 2009 and established standards for accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. FASB ASC 855-10 is effective for periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company adopted FASB ASC 855-10 effective June 30, 2009, as required, without material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
FASB ASC 860-10 concerning accounting for transfers of financial assets was issued in June 2009 and changes the derecognition guidance for transferors of financial assets, including entities that sponsor securitizations, to align that guidance with the original intent of previous guidance. FASB ASC 860-10 also eliminates the exemption from consolidation for qualifying special-purpose entities (QSPEs). As a result, all existing QSPEs need to be evaluated to determine whether the QSPE should be consolidated in accordance with FASB ASC 860-10.
FASB ASC 860-10 is effective as of the beginning of a reporting entity’s first annual reporting period beginning after November 15, 2009 (April 1, 2010, as to the Company), for interim periods within that first annual reporting period, and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. The recognition and measurement provisions of FASB ASC 860-10 must be applied to transfers that occur on or after the effective date. Early application is prohibited. FASB ASC 860-10 also requires additional disclosures about transfers of financial assets that occur both before and after the effective date. The Company does not believe that the adoption of FASB ASC 860-10 will have a significant effect on its consolidated financial statements.

FASB ASC 860-10 also improves how enterprises account for and disclose their involvement with variable interest entities (VIE’s), which are special-purpose entities, and other entities whose equity at risk is insufficient or lacks certain characteristics. Among other things, FASB ASC 860-10 changes how an entity determines whether it is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (VIE) and whether that VIE should be consolidated. FASB ASC 860-10 requires an entity to provide significantly more disclosures about its involvement with VIEs. As a result, the Company must comprehensively review its involvements with VIEs and potential VIEs, including entities previously considered to be qualifying special purpose entities, to determine the effect on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. FASB ASC 860-10 is effective as of the beginning of a reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009 (April 1, 2010, as to the Company), and for interim periods within the first annual reporting period. Earlier application is prohibited. The Company does not believe that the adoption of FASB ASC 860-10 will have a significant effect on its consolidated financial statements.
FASB Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2010-06 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) issued in January 2010 concerns improved disclosures about fair value measurements. The guidance requires the separate reporting of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and the reasons for the transfers. The guidance also requires separate disclosure about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the activity in Level 3. The guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the roll-forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010 (April 1, 2011 for the Company), and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company will adopt the guidance in ASU 2010-06 effective January 1, 2010, as required, without material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.
FASB ASC 715 concerning Employer’s Disclosures about Postretirement Benefit Plan Assets, originally issued in December 2008, became effective for the Company’s fiscal year ended March 31, 2010. The guidance requires additional disclosures about plan assets in an employee’s defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans. The required disclosures have been included in the financial statement footnotes.
FASB ASU 2010-09 Subsequent Events (Topic 855) issued in February 2010 to eliminate the requirement that a SEC registrant disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. The purpose of this change is to alleviate potential conflicts between Subtopic 855-10 and the SEC’s requirements. The guidance was effective upon issuance and was adopted by the Company, as required, without material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

ITEM 9A(T). Controls and Procedures
Our management evaluated, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations and are operating in an effective manner.
Wayne Savings Bancshares, Inc.
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Management of Wayne Savings Bancshares, Inc. and subsidiary (the “Company”) is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U. S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, management of the Company has concluded that the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15(f), as of March 31, 2010.
Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its inherent limitations. Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting can also be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. These inherent limitations, however, are known features of the financial reporting process. It is possible, therefore, to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
