NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated condensed financial statements include the accounts of HopFed Bancorp, Inc. (the “Corporation”) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”). The Corporation is a parent holding company of Heritage Bank USA, Inc. (the “Bank”). The Banks owns JBMM, LLC, a wholly owned, limited liability company, which owns and manages the Bank’s foreclosed assets. The Bank also owns Heritage USA Title, LLC, which sells title insurance to the Bank’s real estate loan customers. The Bank owns Fort Webb LP, LLC, which owns a limited partnership interest in Fort Webb Elderly Housing LP, LLC, a low income senior citizen housing facility in Bowling Green, Kentucky. The Corporation owns 100% of the common stock of HopFed Capital Trust I, a statutory trust formed under the laws of the state of Delaware with the purpose of issuing preferred capital securities to a third-party investor and purchasing junior subordinated debentures from the Company. HopFed Capital Trust I and Fort Webb LP, LLC are variable interest entities for which the Company is not the primary beneficiary. Accordingly, these subsidiaries are recorded under the equity method in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. All significant intercompany accounts have been eliminated.

The Bank is a Kentucky commercial bank regulated by the Kentucky Department of Financial Institutions (“KDFI”) and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). HopFed Bancorp is regulated by the Federal Reserve Bank of Saint Louis (“FED”).

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form10-Q and Article 10 of RegulationS-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary for fair representation have been included. The results of operations and other data for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year ending December 31, 2017.

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form10-K as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016. The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the Company’s December 31, 2016 Consolidated Financial Statements.

(2) NET INCOME PER SHARE

Basic net income per share (IPS) is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding, adjusted for the effect of potentially dilutive stock awards outstanding during the period. For the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016, the Company has excluded all unearned shares held by the ESOP.

(3) STOCK COMPENSATION

The Company incurred compensation cost related to the HopFed Bancorp, Inc. 2004 Long Term Incentive Plan of $31,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 and $30,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2016. The Company did not issue any restricted shares in the three month period ended March 31, 2017. The Company issued 10,609 shares of restricted stock in the three month period ended March 31, 2016. The table below provides a detail of the Company’s future compensation expense related to restricted stock vesting as of March 31, 2017 (Dollars in Thousands):

Year Ending December 31,	Future Expense
2017	$	57
2018		54
2019		9
2020		2
Total	$	122

The compensation committee may make additional awards of restricted stock, thereby increasing the future expense related to this plan. In addition, award vesting may be accelerated due to certain events as outlined in the restricted stock award agreement. Any acceleration of vesting will change the timing of, but not the aggregate amount of, compensation expense incurred.

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluations. Consideration is given to (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. At March 31, 2017, the Company has 69 securities with unrealized losses. The losses for all securities are considered to be a direct result of the effect that the prevailing interest rate environment had on the value of debt securities and are not related to the credit worthiness of the issuers. Furthermore, the Company has the intent and ability to retain its investments in the issuers for a period of time that management believes to be sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value. Therefore, the Company did not recognize any other-than-temporary impairments as of March 31, 2017.

At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, securities with a book value of approximately $128.9 million and $125.6 million and a market value of approximately $131.9 million and $128.4 million, respectively, were pledged to various municipalities for deposits in excess of FDIC limits as required by law.

The determination of the allowance for loan losses is based on management’s analysis, performed on a quarterly basis. Various factors are considered, including the growth and composition of the loan portfolio, the relationship of the allowance for loan losses to outstanding loans, historical loss experience, delinquency trends, prevailing economic conditions and the market value of the underlying collateral. Although management believes its allowance for loan losses is adequate, there can be no assurance that additional allowances will not be required or that losses on loans will not be incurred.

The Company utilizes a credit grading system that provides a uniform framework for establishing and monitoring credit risk in the loan portfolio. Under this system, each loan is graded based onpre-determined risk metrics and categorized into one of the risk grades discussed below. The Company uses the following risk grade definitions for commercial loans:

Excellent -Loans in this category are to persons or entities of unquestioned financial strength, a highly liquid financial position, with collateral that is liquid and well margined. These borrowers have performed without question on past obligations, and the Bank expects their performance to continue. Internally generated cash flow covers current maturities of long-term debt by a substantial margin. Loans secured by Bank certificates of deposit and savings accounts, with appropriate holds placed on the accounts, are to be rated in this category.

Very Good -These are loans to persons or entities with strong financial condition and above- average liquidity who have previously satisfactorily handled their obligations with the bank. Collateral securing the Bank’s debt is margined in accordance with policy guidelines. Internally generated cash flow covers current maturities of long-term debt more than adequately. Unsecured loans to individuals supported by strong financial statements and on which repayment is satisfactory may be included in this classification.

Satisfactory -Assets of this grade conform to substantially all the Bank’s underwriting criteria and evidence an average level of credit risk; however, such assets display more susceptibility to economic, technological or political changes since they lack the above average financial strength of credits rated Very Good. Borrower’s repayment capacity is considered to be adequate. Credit is appropriately structured and serviced; payment history is satisfactory.

Acceptable -Assets of this grade conform to most of the Bank’s underwriting criteria and evidence an acceptable, though higher than average, level of credit risk; however, these loans have certain risk characteristics which could adversely affect the borrower’s ability to repay given material adverse trends. Loans in this category require an above average level of servicing and show more reliance on collateral and guaranties to preclude a loss to the Bank should material adverse trends develop. If the borrower is a company, its earnings, liquidity and capitalization are slightly below average when compared to its peers.

21

Watch -These loans are characterized by borrowers who have marginal cash flow, marginal profitability, or have experienced an unprofitable year and a declining financial condition. The borrower has in the past satisfactorily handled debts with the Bank, but in recent months has either been late, delinquent in making payments, or made sporadic payments. While the Bank continues to be adequately secured, margins have decreased or are decreasing, despite the borrower’s continued satisfactory condition. Other characteristics of borrowers in this class include inadequate credit information, weakness of financial statement and repayment capacity, but with collateral that appears to limit exposure. This classification includes loans to established borrowers that are reasonably margined by collateral, but where potential for improvement in financial capacity appears limited.

Special Mention -Loans in this category have potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deteriorating prospects for the asset or in the institution’s credit position at some future date. Borrowers may be experiencing adverse operating trends or market conditions.Non-financial reasons for rating a credit exposure Special Mention include, but are not limited to: management problems, pending litigations, ineffective loan agreement and/or inadequate loan documentation, structural weaknesses and/or lack of control over collateral.

Substandard -A substandard asset is inadequately protected by the current sound worth or paying capacity of the debtor or the collateral pledged. There exists one or more well defined weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. There is a distinct possibility the Bank will experience some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Doubtful -A loan classified as doubtful has all the weaknesses inherent in a loan classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable. These are poor quality loans in which neither the collateral, if any, nor the financial condition of the borrower presently ensure collectability in full in a reasonable period of time; in fact, there is permanent impairment in the collateral securing the Bank’s loan. These loans are in awork-out status and have a definedwork-out strategy.

Loss- Loans classified as loss are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as bankable assets is not warranted. The Bank takes losses in the period in which they become uncollectible.

22

The following credit risk standards are assigned to consumer loans:

Satisfactory -All consumeropen-end andclosed-end retail loans shall have an initial risk grade assigned of 3 - Satisfactory.

Substandard -All consumeropen-end andclosed-end retail loans past due 90 cumulative days from the contractual date will be classified as 7 - Substandard. If a consumer/retail loan customer files bankruptcy, the loan will be classified as 7 - Substandard regardless of payment history.

Loss -Allclosed-end retail loans that become past due 120 cumulative days andopen-end retail loans that become past due 180 cumulative days from the contractual due date will be charged off as loss assets. The charge off will be taken by the end of the month in which the120-day or180-day time period elapses. All losses in retail credit will be recognized when the affiliate becomes aware of the loss, but in no case should the charge off exceed the time frames stated within this policy.

A loan is considered to be impaired when management determines that it is possible that the Company will be unable to collect all principal and interest payments due in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The value of individually impaired loans is measured based on the present value of expected payments or using the fair value of the collateral less cost to sell if the loan is collateral dependent. Currently, it is management’s practice to classify all substandard or doubtful loans as impaired.

On a periodic basis, the Bank may modify the terms of certain loans. In evaluating whether a restructuring constitutes a troubled debt restructuring (TDR), Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) has issued Accounting Standards Update ASU 310 (ASU 310),A Creditor’s Determination of Whether a Restructuring is a Troubled Debt Restructuring.

At December 31, 2016, the Company had eight loans, representing three lending relationships, classified as performing TDRs. During the three month period ended March 31, 2017, the Company removed one lending relationship from TDR status. That relationship, with two loans representing $2.2 million, has paid as agreed based on the original terms of their note for a period of at least six months. For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, no loans were added to TDR classification and all loans currently classified as TDR are current based on their revised terms.

The following table provides the number of loans remaining in each category as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 that the Company had previously modified in a TDR:

					Post Modification
			Pre-Modification		Outstanding Record
	Number of		Outstanding		Investment, net of
	Loans		Record Investment		related allowance

Multi-family		3	$	815,273		815,273
Non-residential real estate		5		5,646,223		5,646,223

There were no loans as of March 31, 2017 that have been modified as TDRs and that subsequently defaulted within twelve months on their modified terms. At March 31, 2017, there are no commitments to lend additional funds to any borrower whose loan terms have been modified in a TDR.

(6) FORECLOSED ASSETS

The Company’s foreclosed assets have been acquired through customer loan defaults. The property is recorded at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated cost to sell and carrying cost at the date acquired. Any difference between the book value and estimated market value is recognized as a charge off through the allowance for loan loss account. Additional losses on foreclosed assets may be determined on individual properties at specific intervals or at the time of disposal. In general, the Company will obtain a new appraisal on all foreclosed assets with a book balance in excess of $250,000 on an annual basis. Additional losses are recognized as anon-interest expense.

At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company had balances in foreclosed assets consisting of the following:

	March 31, 2017		December 31, 2016
	(Dollars in Thousands)
One-to-four family mortgages	$	135		135

(7) FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

Accounting Standards Codification Topic (ASC) 820, Fair Value Measurements, defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure about fair value. The statement establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable input 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 is for assets and liabilities that management has obtained quoted prices (unadjusted for transaction cost) or identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

• Level 2 is for assets and liabilities in which significant unobservable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

• Level 3 is for assets and liabilities in which significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

29

The following are the significant methods and assumptions used by the Company in estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments:

Cash and due from banks

The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents approximate those assets’ fair values, because they mature within 90 days or less and do not present credit risk concerns.

Interest-bearing deposits

The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for interest earning deposits approximate those assets’ fair values, because they are considered overnight deposits and may be withdrawn at any time without penalty and do not present credit risk concerns.

Available-for-sale securities

Fair values for investment securitiesavailable-for-sale are based on quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments provided by a third party pricing service. The Company reviews all securities in which the book value is greater than the market value for impairment that is other than temporary. For securities deemed to be other than temporarily impaired, the Company reduces the book value of the security to its market value by recognizing an impairment charge on its income statement.

FHLB stock

The fair value of FHLB stock is recognized at cost.

Loans held for sale

Mortgage loans originated and intended to be sold are carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair value as determined on a loan by loan basis. Gains or losses are recognized at the time of ownership transfer. Net unrealized losses, if any, are recognized through a valuation allowance and charged to income.

Loans receivable

The fair values for of fixed-rate loans and variable rate loans thatre-price on an infrequent basis is estimated using discounted cash flow analysis which considers futurere-pricing dates and estimated repayment dates, and further using interest rates currently being offered for loans of similar type, terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. Loan fair value estimates include judgments regarding future expected loss experience and risk characteristics. The estimated fair value of variable-rate loans thatre-price frequently and with have no significant change in credit risk is approximately the carrying value of the loan.

Accrued interest receivable

Fair value is estimated to approximate the carrying amount because such amounts are expected to be received within 90 days or less and any credit concerns have been previously considered in the carrying value.

Deposits

The fair values disclosed for deposits with no stated maturity such as demand deposits, interest-bearing checking accounts and savings accounts are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (that is, their carrying amounts). The fair values for certificates of deposit and other fixed maturity time deposits are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on such type accounts or similar accounts to a schedule of aggregated contractual maturities or similar maturities on such time deposits.

Advances from borrowers for taxes and insurance

The carrying amount of advances from borrowers for taxes and insurance approximates its fair value.

Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB)

The fair value of these advances is estimated by discounting the future cash flows of these advances using the current rates at which similar advances or similar financial instruments could be obtained.

Repurchase agreements

Overnight repurchase agreements have a fair value at book, given that they mature overnight. The fair values for of longer date repurchase agreements is estimated using discounted cash flow analysis which considers the current market pricing for repurchase agreements of similar final maturities and collateral requirements.

Subordinated debentures

The book value of subordinated debentures is cost. The subordinated debenturesre-price quarterly at a rate equal to three month libor plus 3.10%.

Fair Value Measurements on a Recurring Basis

Where quoted prices are available for identical securities in an active market, securities available for sale are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 securities include highly liquid government securities and certain other financial products. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models that use observable inputs or quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics and are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. In certain cases where there is limited activity or less transparency around inputs to the valuation and more complex pricing models or discounted cash flows are used, securities are classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.

Foreclosed assets and impaired loans are valued at fair value, less cost to sell. Fair value of a foreclosed asset is determined by an appraised value of the underlying collateral to which a discount is applied. Management establishes the discount or adjustments based on recent sales and any unique features the collateral may possess. Management also considers the anticipated selling cost associated with the collateral when establishing the discounted percentage. Management may adjust the discounts based on the most recent sales of comparable collateral.

The Company bases the value of its trust preferred security on a quarterly review of SEC filings by the issuer to ascertain overall financial strength. Based on the analysis, the Company then reviews the Libor swap curve to analyze the overall yield of our investment as compared to long-term swap rates. On rare occasions, the Company may receive an offer from a broker to purchase similar type instruments and the Company will analyze these offerings as compared to our investment.

The table below includes a roll-forward of the consolidated condensed statement of financial condition items for the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016, (including the change in fair value) for assets and liabilities classified by HopFed Bancorp, Inc. within level 3 of the valuation hierarchy for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. When a determination is made to classify an asset or liability within level 3 of the valuation hierarchy, the determination is based upon the significance of the unobservable factors to the overall fair value measurement. However, since level 3 assets and liabilities typically include, in addition to the unobservable or level 3 components, observable components (that is components that are actively quoted and can be validated to external sources), the gains and losses in the table below include changes in fair value due in part to observable factors that are part of the valuation methodology.

(8) EFFECT OF NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In May 2014, the FASB issued new guidance related to “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” This guidance supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC Topic 605,Revenue Recognition, and most industry-specific guidance throughout the ASC. The guidance requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016; however, the FASB has agreed to aone-year deferral of the effective date to December 15, 2017. Management is currently evaluating the impact that this ASU will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

36

ASU2016-01, “Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.”ASU2016-01, among other things, (i) requires equity investments, with certain exceptions, to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income, (ii) simplifies the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values by requiring a qualitative assessment to identify impairment, (iii) eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet, (iv) requires public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes, (v) requires an entity to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk when the entity has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments, (vi) requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset on the balance sheet or the accompanying notes to the financial statements and (vii) clarifies that an entity should evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related toavailable-for-sale. ASU2016-01 will be effective on January 1, 2018. Management is currently evaluating the impact that this ASU will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

ASU2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” ASU2016-02 will, among other things, require lessees to recognize a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and aright-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. ASU2016-02 does not significantly change lease accounting requirements applicable to lessors; however, certain changes were made to align, where necessary, lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model and ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” ASU2016-02 will be effective for us on January 1, 2019, and will require transition using a modified retrospective approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. Management is currently evaluating the potential impact of ASU2016-02 on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

ASU2016-05“Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) Effect of Derivative Contract Novations on Existing Hedge Accounting Relationships.” ASU2016-05 clarifies that a change in the counterparty to a derivative instrument that has been designated as the hedging instrument under ASC Topic 815 does not, in and of itself, requirede-designation of that hedging relationship provided that all other hedge accounting criteria continue to be met. ASU2016-05 was effective beginning January 1, 2017. The implementation of ASU2016-05 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

ASU2016-07, “Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Simplifying the Transition to the Equity Method of Accounting.” The amendments affect all entities that have an investment that becomes qualified for the equity method of accounting as a result of an increase in the level of ownership interest or degree of influence. ASU2016-07 simplifies the transition to the equity method of accounting by eliminating retroactive adjustment of the investment when an investment qualifies for use of the equity method, among other things. ASU2016-07 was effective beginning January 1, 2017. The implementation of ASU2016-07 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

37

ASU2016-09, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” Under ASU2016-09 all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies related to share-based payment awards should be recognized as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement during the period in which they occur. Previously, such amounts were recorded in the pool of excess tax benefits included in additionalpaid-in capital, if such pool was available. Because excess tax benefits are no longer recognized in additionalpaid-in capital, the assumed proceeds from applying the treasury stock method when computing earnings per share should exclude the amount of excess tax benefits that would have previously been recognized in additionalpaid-in capital. Additionally, excess tax benefits should be classified along with other income tax cash flows as an operating activity rather than a financing activity, as was previously the case. ASU2016-09 also provides that an entity can make an entity-wide accounting policy election to either estimate the number of awards that are expected to vest (current GAAP) or account for forfeitures when they occur. ASU2016-09 changes the threshold to qualify for equity classification (rather than as a liability) to permit withholding up to the maximum statutory tax rates (rather than the minimum as was previously the case) in the applicable jurisdictions. ASU2016-09 was effective beginning January 1, 2017. The implementation of ASU2016-09 did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

On June 16, 2016, the FASB released its finalized ASU2016-13,“Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”. The amendments to U.S. GAAP require businesses and other organization to measure the expected credit losses on financial assets, such as loans, securities, bond insurance, and many receivables. The accounting changes apply to instruments recorded on balance sheets at their historical cost, although there are some limited changes to the accounting for debt instruments classified asavailable-for-sale. Write-downs will be based on historical information, current business conditions, and forecasts, and it expects the forecasts are expected to improve the loss estimates on financial assets that are losing value. The techniques that are employed today to write down loans and other instruments can still be used, although the variables for calculating the losses are expected to change. ASU2016-13 will become effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. Companies are permitted to adopt ASU2016-13 in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. Management is currently evaluating the potential impact of this ASU on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

ASU2016-15“Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230)” (“ASU2016-15”) is intended to reduce the diversity in practice around how certain transactions are classified within the statement of cash flows. ASU2016-15 is effective for public companies for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption was permitted with retrospective application. Management is evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU2016-15 will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

(9) INCOME TAXES

The Company files consolidated federal income tax returns and Tennessee excise tax returns. The Company files consolidated Kentucky income tax returns. The Bank is exempt from Kentucky corporate income tax. The Company has no unrecognized tax benefits and has not accrued any interest or penalties for uncertain tax positions. The effective tax rate differs from the statutory federal rate of 35% and Tennessee excise rate of 6.5% due to investments in qualified municipal securities, bank owned life insurance, income apportioned to Kentucky and certainnon-deductible expenses. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016 was 12.6% and 8.3%, respectively. The Company’s effective federal income tax rate varies significantly from our federal statutory tax rate for a variety of factors, including:

The Company’s investment in Fort Webb LP, LLC generates tax credits and depreciation expense that the Company can use to offset taxable income. At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company’s balance sheet did not include any equity investment in Fort Webb. The Company has other investments that produce both tax credits and depreciation expense that may be used to offset net income.

At March 31, 2017, the Company has $10.1 million in bank owned life insurance policies. The income generated from these policies increase the cash flow of the policies on a tax free basis. Life insurance proceeds are paid upon the death of a covered party. These proceeds, netted against the current cash value of the policy, result in tax free income to the Company. For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, the Company received additional income of approximately $170,000 from the net proceeds of a life insurance policy.

At March 31, 2017, the Company’s investment portfolio includes $34.1 million of tax free municipal bonds. Interest income on this portfolio, after netting out a disallowance for interest expense attributable to this portfolio, is tax exempt.

(10) ESOP

Substantially all of the Company’s employees who are at least 21 years old and have one year of employment with the Company participate in the 2015 HopFed Bancorp, Inc. Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”). The ESOP purchased 600,000 shares of the Company’s common stock from the Company on March 2, 2015, at $13.14 per share. The ESOP borrowed $7.9 million from anopen-end line of credit from the Company for the purchase of the stock, using the 600,000 shares of common stock as collateral. The Company makes discretionary contributions to the ESOP. The ESOP utilizes these contributions along with the dividends on the 600,000 held by the ESOP to repay the loan from the Company. When loan payments are made, ESOP shares are released based on reduction in the principal balance of the loan. The shares are allocated to participants based on relative compensation.

39

Employees who are not employed on December 31st of each year are not eligible for participation in the ESOP. The Company anticipates that loan payments will be made at the end of each year. Participants receive shares at the end of employment. The Company has the option to repurchase the shares or provide the shares directly to the employee.

The Company made its second ESOP loan payment in December 2016. At March 31, 2017, the Company’s accrued liability for the loan payment is $195,000. At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, shares held by the ESOP were as follows:

The Company is a party to certain ordinary course litigation, and the Company intends to vigorously defend itself in all such matters. In the opinion of the Company, based on review and consultation with legal counsel, the outcome of such ordinary course litigation should not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or results of operations.

(12) REGULATORY MATTERS

The new minimum capital level requirements applicable to bank holding companies and banks subject to the rules are: (i) a new common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 4.5%; (ii) a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 6% (increased from 4%); (iii) a total risk-based capital ratio of 8% (unchanged from current rules); (iv) a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 4% for all institutions. The rules also establish a “capital conservation buffer” of 2.5% (to be phased in over three years) above the new regulatory minimum risk-based capital ratios, and result in the following minimum ratios once the capital conservation buffer is fully phased in: (i) a common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 7%, (ii) a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 8.5%, and (iii) a total risk-based capital ratio of 10.5%.

The capital conservation buffer requirement was phased in beginning in January 2016 at 0.625% of risk-weighted assets and will increase each year until fully implemented in January 2019. For 2017, the capital conservation buffer is 1.25%. An institution is subject to limitations on paying dividends, engaging in share repurchases and paying discretionary bonuses if capital levels fall below minimum plus the buffer amounts. These limitations establish a maximum percentage of eligible retained income that could be utilized for such actions.

41

Under these new rules, Tier 1 capital generally consist of common stock (plus related surplus) and retained earnings, limited amounts of minority interest in the form of additional Tier 1 capital instruments, andnon-cumulative preferred stock and related surplus, subject to certain eligibility standards, less goodwill and other specified intangible assets and other regulatory deductions. Cumulative preferred stock and trust preferred securities issued after May 19, 2010, will no longer qualify as Tier 1 capital, but such securities issued prior to May 19, 2010, including in the case of bank holding companies with less than $15.0 billion in total assets, trust preferred securities issued prior to that date, will continue to count as Tier 1 capital subject to certain limitations. The definition of Tier 2 capital is generally unchanged for most banking organizations, subject to certain new eligibility criteria.

Common equity Tier 1 capital generally consist of common stock (plus related surplus) and retained earnings plus limited amounts of minority interest in the form of common stock, less goodwill and other specified intangible assets and other regulatory deductions. The final rules allow banks and their holding companies with less than $250 billion in assets aone-time opportunity toopt-out of a requirement to include unrealized gains and losses in accumulated other comprehensive income in their capital calculation. The Company has made the decision toopt-out of this requirement.

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 tangible and core capital (as defined in the regulations) to adjusted total assets (as defined), and of total capital (as defined) and Tier 1 to risk weighted assets (as defined). The minimum required capital amounts presented include the minimum required capital levels as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 based on thephase-in provisions of Basel III Capital Rules. Management believes, as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, that the Bank meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements requires management to make subjective judgments associated with estimates. These estimates are necessary to comply with U.S. GAAP and general banking practices. These estimates include accounting for the allowance for loan losses, foreclosed assets, valuation of deferred tax assets and fair value measurements. A description of these estimates, which significantly affect the Company’s determination of our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows, is set forth in Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of the Notes to the Company’s consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form10-K as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016.

The emphasis of this discussion is a comparison of assets, liabilities and stockholders’ equity as of March 31, 2017 to December 31, 2016, while comparing income and expense for the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016.

All information should be read in conjunction with the Company’s unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this report and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” appearing in the Company’s Annual Report on Form10-K as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Comparison of Financial Condition at March 31, 2016, and December 31, 2016

At March 31, 2017, total assets increased $31.8 million, to $923.3 million as compared to $891.5 million at December 31, 2016, largely due to higher levels of time deposits, cash on hand and loan growth. Securities available for sale declined from $209.5 million at December 31, 2016 to $207.6 million at March 31, 2017. At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, securities classified as “available for sale” had an amortized cost of $206.5 million and $208.7 million. Net loans totaled $615.5 million and $604.3 million at March 31, 2017, and December 31, 2016, respectively.

The Company’s holdings of Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati (“FHLB”) stock, at cost were $4.4 million at December 31, 2016 and March 31, 2017. Total FHLB borrowings were $11.0 million at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016. Total repurchase balances declined from $47.7 million at December 31, 2016 to $45.5 million at March 31, 2017.

44

At March 31, 2017, deposits increased $32.8 million from $732.9 million at December 31, 2016 to $765.7 million at March 31, 2017. At March 31, 2017,non-interest checking account balances are $136.3 million, or 17.8% of total deposits as compared to $131.1 million, or 17.9% of total deposits at December 31, 2016. For the period ended March 31, 2017, interest bearing checking accounts increased by $8.2 million as compared to December 31, 2016. At March 31, 2017, time deposits were $311.8 million, representing an increase of $18.8 million as compared to December 31, 2016. Management continually evaluates the investment alternatives available to customers and adjusts the pricing on its deposit products to more actively manage its funding costs while remaining competitive in its market area.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Month Periods Ended March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016.

Net Income. The Company’s net income was $935,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2017, as compared to net income of $509,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2016.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income for the three month period ended March 31, 2017, was $6.8 million, compared to $6.7 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2016. The increase in net interest income for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 as compared to March 31, 2016 was largely due to the $54.8 million increase in the average balance of loans outstanding. For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, the growth in the average balance of loans outstanding as compared to three month period ended March 31, 2016 helped to offset a decline in the average yield of the loan portfolio.

For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, the average yield on loans was 4.38%, as compared to 4.62% for the three month period ended March 31, 2016. For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, income on taxable securities and tax free securities was $1.1 million and $283,000, respectively. Income on taxable and tax free securities was $1.2 million and $353,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2016, respectively. For the three month period ending March 31, 2017, the tax equivalent yield on taxable and tax free securities were 2.53% and 5.00%, respectively, as compared to 2.52% and 5.01% for the three month period ended March 31, 2016, respectively.

For the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016, the Company’s cost of interest bearing liabilities was 0.81% and 0.83%, respectively. For the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016, the Company’s net interest margin was 3.31% and 3.39%, respectively.

Average Balances, Yields and Interest Expenses. The table on the next page summarizes the overall effect of changes in both interest rates and the average balances of interest earning assets and liabilities for the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016. Yields on assets and cost of liabilities are derived by dividing income or expense by the average daily balances of interest earning assets and liabilities for the appropriate three month periods.

Average balances for loans include loans classified asnon-accrual, net of the allowance for loan losses. The table adjuststax-free investment income by $141,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 and $174,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2016, for a tax equivalent rate using a cost of funds rate of 0.81%for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 and 0.83% for the three month period ended March 31, 2016. The table adjuststax-free loan income by $9,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 and $5,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2016, for a tax equivalent rate using the same cost of funds rate (Table amounts in thousands, except percentages):

Interest Income. For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, the Company’s total interest income was $8.2 million, representing an increase of $79,000 as compared to the three month period ended March 31, 2016. For the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016, interest income on loans was $6.7 million and $6.5 million, respectively. The average balance of loans receivable increased from $560.5 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2016 to $615.4 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2017. The ratio of average interest-earning assets to average interest-bearing liabilities increased from 119.34% for the three month period ended March 31, 2016 to 120.94% for the three month period ended March 31, 2017.

Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $1,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 as compared to the three month period ended March 31, 2016. For the three month period ending March 31, 2017, the Company’s interest expense on FHLB advances was $32,000, as compared to $73,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2016. The average cost of FHLB borrowings were 0.95% for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 and 2.15% for the three month period ended March 31, 2016.

For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, the average balance of interest bearing retail time deposits declined $5.2 million to $259.1 million, as compared to $264.3 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2016. The average cost of retail time deposits for the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016 was 1.03% and 0.97%, respectively.

The average cost of brokered deposits increased from 1.10% for the three month period ended March 31, 2016 to 1.17% for the three month period ended March 31, 2017. Over the same period, the average balance of brokered deposits increased $10.0 million to $46.0 million. For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, the Company’s total cost of deposits was 0.61% as compared to 0.60% for the three month period ended March 31, 2016.

The average balance of repurchase agreements declined from $43.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016, to $41.8 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2017. The average cost of repurchase agreements was 1.31% for the three months ended March 31, 2016, and 0.98% for the three month period ended March 31, 2017.

Provision for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses based on management’s evaluation of the risk inherent in its loan portfolio and the general economy. Such evaluation considers numerous factors including general economic conditions, loan portfolio composition and prior loss experience, the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral and other factors that warrant recognition in providing for an adequate loan loss allowance. The Company determined that an additional $291,000 in provision for loan loss was required for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 compared to a $458,000 provision for loan loss expense for the three month period ended March 31, 2016.

47

Non-Interest Income. There was a $276,000 increase innon-interest income in the three month period ended March 31, 2017 as compared to the three month period ended March 31, 2016. For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, other operating income was $479,000 as compared to $176,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2016. The improved level of other operating income is the result of one time licensing fees earned by the Bank from a vendor. For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, the Company earned $334,000 in mortgage origination income as compared to $368,000 during the three month period ended March 31, 2016. The decline in mortgage origination income was largely the result of an increase in mortgage loan rates which reduced the demand for fixed rate mortgage loan products.

The Company’s income for services charges was $804,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2017, as compared to $677,000 for the same period in 2016. The increase in service charge income is the result of the Company’s revised consumer transaction account product offerings, providing additional income on these accounts. The Company’s financial services commission was $133,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2016 as compared to $140,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2017. For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, gains on the sale of securities were $2,000, as compared to $291,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2016. For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, the Company’s liquidity position grew due to an increase in deposits, eliminating the need for the Company to sell securities for liquidity purposes.

Non-Interest Expenses. There was a $6,000 increase in totalnon-interest expenses for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 as compared to the three month period ended March 31, 2016. The most significant change innon-interest expenses was a $248,000 increase in salaries and benefits expense. The increase in salaries and benefits expense is largely the result of a $67,000 increase in health insurance benefits due to an increase in medical insurance and a $146,000 increase in overall compensation.

For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, other operating expenses were $846,000 as compared to $1.2 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2016. The reduction in other expenses is attributable to several factors, including reduced legal cost as the Company sought to obtain legal title to properties owned by past due borrowers. These properties, now held in foreclosed assets, resulted in an expense of foreclosed assets of $108,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 as compared to $68,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2016.

Income Taxes. The effective tax rate for the three month periods ending March 31, 2017 was 12.6% due to the modest level of taxable net interest income and a higher level of tax free income and an increase in income from bank owned life insurance resulting from the receipt of approximately $170,000 in from the proceeds of a life insurance policy. For the three month period ended March 31, 2016, the Company’s taxable net income effective rate was 8.3% due to very low levels of net income and a relatively higher level of tax free income.

Liquidity and Capital Resources. The Company has no business other than that of the Bank. Management believes that dividends that may be paid by the Bank to the Company will provide sufficient funds for its current needs. However, no assurance can be given that the Company will not have a need for additional funds in the future. The Bank is subject to certain regulatory limitations with respect to the payment of dividends to the Company.

The Bank uses brokered deposits to supplement its asset liability need for longer term deposits at reasonable prices. In addition to the coupon rate listed below, brokered deposits carry an additional fee of approximately 0.25% that includes the cost of selling and servicing the deposits. The Company includes this cost as interest expense on its income statement.

At March 31, 2017, the Bank’s brokered deposits consisted of the following:

Issue Date	Interest Rate			Balance		Maturity Date
1/9/2015		1.00	%	$	2,077,000		4/9/2017

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form10-Q contains forward-looking statements. Additional written or oral forward-looking statements may be made by the Company from time to time in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission or otherwise. The words “believe,” “expect,” “seek,” and “intend” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date the statement is made. Such forward-looking statements are within the meaning of that term in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such statements may include, but are not limited to, projections of income or loss, expenditures, acquisitions, plans for future operations, financing needs or plans relating to services of the Company, as well as assumptions relating to the foregoing.

Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified. Future events and actual results could differ materially from those set forth in, contemplated by or underlying the forward-looking statements. The Company does not undertake, and specifically disclaims, any obligation to publicly release the results of revisions, which may be made to forward-looking statements to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances after the date of such statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The actual results of the Company’s asset liability management analysis are highly dependent on the prepayment speed of mortgage backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations. The United States Treasury’s policy of purchasing longer dated Treasury bonds has the result of lowering mortgage loan rates, allowing more consumers to refinance their mortgages andpay-off their current mortgage, resulting in higher prepayment speeds on mortgage investment products.

The effects of rising interest rates are discussed throughout Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” Actual results for the year ending December 31, 2017 will differ from simulations due to timing, magnitude, and the frequency or interest rate changes, market conditions, management strategies, and the timing of the Company’s cash receipts and disbursements.

The Company’s analysis at March 31, 2017 indicates that changes in interest rates are less likely to result in significant changes in the Company’s annual net interest income. A summary of the Company’s analysis at March 31, 2017 for the twelve month period ending March 31, 2018 is as follows:

	Down 1.00%		No change		Up 1.00%		Up 2.00%		Up 3.00%
	(Dollars in Thousands)
Net interest income	$	27,877	$	29,162	$	30,120	$	30,838	$	31,399

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

In accordance with Rule13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), an evaluation was carried out with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined inRule 13a-15(e) and15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the quarter ended March 31, 2017.

Based upon their evaluation of these disclosure controls and procedures, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the three months ended March 31, 2017 to ensure that material information relating to the Company, including its consolidated subsidiaries, was made known to them by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which this quarterly report on Form10-Q was being prepared.

Any control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance that its objectives are achieved. The design of a control system inherently has limitations, including the controls cost relative to their benefits. Additionally, controls can be circumvented. No cost-effective control system can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud will be detected.

The Company is subject to Section 404 of The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Section 404 requires management to assess and report on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the Company’s fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonable likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
