NOTE 7. FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820 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. FASB ASC 825 allows the Company to elect to apply fair value accounting for designated instruments to improve financial reporting and mitigate volatility in reported earnings.  A fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. The price in the principal (or most advantageous) market used to measure the fair value of the asset or liability shall not be adjusted for transaction costs. An orderly transaction is a transaction that assumes exposure to the market for a period prior to the measurement date to allow for marketing activities that are usual and customary for transactions involving such assets and liabilities; it is not a forced transaction. Market participants are buyers and sellers in the principal market that are (i) independent, (ii) knowledgeable, (iii) able to transact and (iv) willing to transact.

FASB ASC 820 requires the use of valuation techniques that are consistent with the market approach, the income approach and/or the cost approach. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets and liabilities. The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts, such as cash flows or earnings, to a single present amount on a discounted basis. The cost approach is based on the amount that currently would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement costs). Valuation techniques should be consistently applied. Inputs to valuation techniques refer to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Inputs may be observable, meaning those that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from independent sources, or unobservable, meaning those that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. In that regard, FASB ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is as follows:

· Level 1 Inputs - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

· Level 2 Inputs - Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (for example, interest rates, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

· Level 3 Inputs - Significant unobservable inputs that reflect an entity’s own assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities.

A description of the valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy, is set forth below.

In general, fair value is based upon quoted market prices, where available. If such quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based upon internally developed models that primarily use, as inputs, observable market-based parameters. Valuation adjustments may be made to ensure that financial instruments are recorded at fair value.

While management believes the Company’s valuation methodologies are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date.

Investment Securities Available for Sale – Securities classified as available for sale are reported at fair value utilizing Level 1 and Level 2 inputs. For these securities, the Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U. S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayments speeds, credit information and the bond’s terms and conditions, among other things.

Preferred Stock – Fair Value Option – The Company elected in July 2007 to apply the fair value option to its investment in Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae preferred stock.  Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae preferred stock are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs. For these securities, because there is no active or liquid trading market, the Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U. S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayments speeds, credit information and the terms and conditions of the stock, among other things.

Loans Held for Sale – These loans are reported at the lower of cost or fair value. Fair value is determined based on expected proceeds based on sales contracts and commitments and are considered Level 2 inputs.

Impaired Loans – Impaired loans are reported at the fair value of the underlying collateral if repayment is expected solely from the collateral. Collateral values are estimated using Level 3 inputs based on internally customized discounting criteria.

Mortgage Servicing Rights – Fair values are estimated by stratifying the mortgage servicing portfolio into groups of loans with similar financial characteristics, such as loan type, interest rate, and expected maturity and are considered Level 2 inputs.  The Company obtains market survey data estimates and bid quotations from secondary market investors who regularly purchase mortgage servicing rights.  Assumptions regarding loan payoffs are determined using historical information on segmented loan categories for nonspecific borrowers.

The following table summarizes financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2009, segregated by the level of the valuation inputs within the fair value hierarchy utilized to measure fair value (dollars in thousands):

	(In thousands)
Impaired loans	$	$		$	3	$	3
Mortgage servicing rights			2,315				2,315

As of September 30, 2009, certain impaired loans were remeasured and reported at fair value through a specific valuation allowance allocation of the allowance for loan losses based upon the fair value of the underlying collateral. Impaired loans with a carrying value of $3,175 were reduced by specific valuation allowance allocations totaling $30,469 to a total reported fair value of $3,175 based on collateral valuations utilizing Level 3 valuation inputs.

As of September 30, 2009, mortgage servicing rights were remeasured and reported at fair value through a valuation allowance based upon the fair value of the calculated servicing rights. Servicing rights with a carrying value of $2,315,000 were reduced by the valuation allowance totaling $0 to a total reported fair value of $2,315,000 based on collateral valuations utilizing Level 2 valuation inputs.

Repossessed assets, which are recorded at the lower of cost or market value, are measured for impairment by comparing the carrying value with the current fair value of the assets.  Repossessed assets, including other real estate owned, had a carrying amount of $163,000, as of September 30, 2009.

Those financial instruments not subject to the initial implementation of FASB ASC 820 are required under FASB ASC 825 to have their fair value disclosed, both assets and liabilities recognized and not recognized in the statement of financial position, for which it is practicable to estimate fair value.  Below is a table that summarizes the fair market values of all financial instruments of the Company at September 30, 2009, and June 30, 2009, followed by methods and assumptions that were used by the Company in estimating the fair value of the classes of financial instruments not covered by FASB ASC 820.

The estimated fair value amounts of financial instruments have been determined by the Company using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies.  However, considerable judgment is required to interpret data to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize in a current market exchange.  The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the fair value of the following classes of financial instruments.

Cash and interest-bearing accounts – The carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the relatively short period of time between the origination of these instruments and their expected realization.

Stock in the FHLB –The fair value of stock in the FHLB approximates redemption value.

Loans receivable – Fair values are estimated by stratifying the loan portfolio into groups of loans with similar financial characteristics.  Loans are segregated by type such as real estate, commercial, and consumer, with each category further segmented into fixed and adjustable rate interest terms.

For mortgage loans, the Company uses the secondary market rates in effect for loans that have similar characteristics.  The fair value of other fixed rate loans is calculated by discounting scheduled cash flows through the anticipated maturities adjusted for prepayment estimates.  Adjustable interest rate loans are assumed to approximate fair value because they generally reprice within the short term.

Fair values are adjusted for credit risk based on assessment of risk identified with specific loans, and risk adjustments on the remaining portfolio based on credit loss experience.

Assumptions regarding credit risk are determined based on management’s judgment using specific borrower information, internal credit quality analysis, and historical information on segmented loan categories for non-specific borrowers.

Cash surrender value of life insurance –The carrying amount for cash surrender value of life insurance approximates fair value as policies are recorded at redemption value.

Deposits and time certificates of deposit – The fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as checking, passbook, and money market, is equal to the amount payable on demand.  The fair value of time certificates of deposit is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows.  The discount rate is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar maturities.

Advances from the FHLB & Subordinated Debentures – The fair value of the Company’s advances and debentures are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis based on the interest rate that would be effective September 30, 2009 and June 30, 2009, respectively if the borrowings repriced according to their stated terms.

NOTE 8. RECENTLY ISSUED PRONOUNCEMENTS

GAAP Codification – On July 1, 2009, the FASB’s GAAP Codification became effective as the sole authoritative source of GAAP.  This codification reorganizes current GAAP for non-governmental entities into a topical index to facilitate accounting research and to provide users additional assurance that they have referenced all related literature pertaining to a given topic.  Existing GAAP prior to the Codification was not altered in the compilation of the GAAP Codification.  The GAAP Codification encompasses all FASB Statements of Financial Accounting Standards, Emerging Issues Task Force statements, FASB Staff Positions, FASB Interpretations, FASB Derivative Implementation Guides, American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Positions, Accounting Principles Board Opinions and Accounting Research Bulletins along with the remaining body of GAAP effective as of June 30, 2009.  Financial Statements issued for all interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009, will need to reference accounting guidance embodied in the Codification as opposed to referencing the previously authoritative pronouncements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued ASC 810 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and the deconsolidation of a subsidiary; (b) changes the way the consolidated income statement is presented; (c) establishes a single method of accounting for changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in deconsolidation; (d) requires that a parent recognize a gain or loss in net income when a subsidiary is deconsolidated; and (e) requires expanded disclosures in the consolidated financial statements that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent’s owners and the interests of the noncontrolling owners of a subsidiary.  The accounting provisions of ASC 810 must be applied prospectively, but the presentation and disclosure requirements must be applied retrospectively to provide comparability in the financial statements.  Early adoption is prohibited.  ASC 810 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008.  The Company is in the process of determining the impact of adopting this new accounting principle on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows

The FASB recently issued ASC 805 that requires (a) a company to recognize the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at fair value as of the acquisition date; and (b) an acquirer in preacquisition periods to expense all acquisition-related costs, among various other modifications included in ASC 805.  ASC 805 requires that any adjustments to an acquired entity’s deferred tax asset and liability balance that occur after the measurement period be recorded as a component of income tax expense.  This accounting treatment is required for business combinations consummated before the effective date ASC 805 (non-prospective), otherwise ASC 805 must be applied prospectively. The presentation and disclosure requirements must be applied retrospectively to provide comparability in the financial statements.  Early adoption is prohibited.   ASC 805 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008.  The impact of this standard is dependent upon the level of future acquisitions.

FASB ASC 815-10 requires companies to provide qualitative disclosures about the objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative data about the fair value of gains and losses on derivative contracts, and details of credit-risk-related contingent features in their hedged positions.  The statement also requires companies to disclose more information about the location and amounts of derivative instruments in financial statements; how derivatives and related hedges are accounted for and how the hedges affect the entity’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows.  FASB ASC 815-10 is effective for periods beginning after November 15, 2008.  The Company will comply with the disclosure provisions of FASB ASC 815-10 to the extent it has entered into derivative transactions in the year of adoption.

Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This report contains certain “forward-looking statements” about  Eagle Bancorp (“Eagle” or the “Company”) for which it claims the protection of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  These forward-looking statements, which are included in Management’s Discussion and Analysis, and elsewhere in this report, describe future plans or strategies and include Eagle’s expectations of future financial results.  The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “project,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements but are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements.  Eagle’s ability to predict results or the effect of future plans or strategies or qualitative or quantitative changes based on market risk is inherently uncertain.  Factors which could affect actual results include, but are not limited to (i) change in general market interest rates, (ii) the length and severity of current difficulties in the national and local economies and the effects of federal and state government efforts to address those difficulties; (iii) fluctuations in asset prices including, but not limited to, stocks, bonds and real estate; (iv) legislative/regulatory changes, (v) monetary and fiscal policies of the U.S. Treasury and Federal Reserve, (vi) changes in the quality or composition of Eagle’s loan and investment portfolios, (vii) demand for loan products, (viii) deposit flows, (ix) competition, and (x) demand for financial services in Eagle’s markets.  These factors should be considered in evaluating the forward-looking statements.  You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements which speak only as of their dates.  The Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements in this report.

 Overview

The Company’s primary activity is its ownership of its wholly owned subsidiary, American Federal Savings Bank (the “Bank”).  The Bank is a federally chartered savings bank, engaging in typical banking activities:  acquiring deposits from local markets and investing in loans and investment securities.  The Bank’s primary component of earnings is its net interest margin (also called spread or margin), the difference between interest income and interest expense.  The net interest margin is managed by management (through the pricing of its products and by the types of products offered and kept in portfolio), and is affected by moves in interest rates.  Noninterest income in the form of fee income and gain on sale of loans adds to the Bank’s income.

The Bank has a strong mortgage lending focus, with the majority of its loans in single-family residential mortgages.  This has enabled the Bank to successfully market home equity loans, as well as a wide range of shorter term consumer loans for various personal needs (automobiles, recreational vehicles, etc.).  In recent years the Bank has also focused on adding commercial loans to its portfolio, both real estate and non-real estate.  The purpose of this diversification is to mitigate the Bank’s dependence on the mortgage market, as well as to improve its ability to manage its spread.  The Bank’s management recognizes that fee income will also enable the Bank to be less dependent on specialized lending and the Bank now maintains a significant loan serviced portfolio, which provides a steady source of fee income.   The gain on sale of loans also provides significant fee income in periods of high mortgage loan origination volumes.  Fee income is also supplemented with fees generated from the Bank’s deposit accounts.  The Bank has a high percentage of non-maturity deposits, such as checking accounts and savings accounts, which allows management flexibility in managing its spread.  Non-maturity deposits do not automatically reprice as interest rates rise, as do certificates of deposit.

For the past three years, management’s focus has been on improving the Bank’s core earnings.  Core earnings can be described as income before taxes, with the exclusion of gain on sale of loans and adjustments to the market value of the Bank’s loan serviced portfolio.  Management believes that the Bank will need to continue to focus on increasing net interest margin, other areas of fee income, and control operating expenses to achieve earnings growth going forward.  Management’s strategy of growing the bank’s loan portfolio and deposit base is expected to help achieve these goals:  loans typically earn higher rates of return than investments; a larger deposit base will yield higher fee income; increasing the asset base will reduce the relative impact of fixed operating costs.  The biggest challenge to management’s strategy is funding the growth of the Bank’s balance sheet in an efficient manner.  Deposit growth will be difficult to maintain due to significant competition and higher cost wholesale funding (which is usually more expensive than retail deposits) will likely be needed to supplement it.  As did many financial institutions, the Bank invested in certain securities that were impacted by the current financial crisis.  Specifically, in the first quarter of the 2008 fiscal year, the Company elected to apply FASB ASC 825 to certain preferred stock issued by Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae.  FASB ASC 825 election had a significant impact on earnings in the first quarter of the 2009 fiscal year, resulting in an earnings charge for that period of $1.24 million.

The level and movement of interest rates impacts the Bank’s earnings as well.  The Federal Reserve’s Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) did not change the federal funds target rate during the quarter ended September 30, 2009.  As such it ended at 0.25%.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Comparison of Financial Condition at September 30, 2009 and June 30, 2009

Total assets increased by $10.97 million, or 3.79%, to $300.68 million at September 30, 2009, from $289.71 million at June 30, 2009.  Total liabilities increased by $8.34 million to $270.25 million at September 30, 2009, from $261.92 million at June 30, 2009.  Total equity increased $2.64 million to $30.43 million at September 30, 2009, from $27.79 million at June 30, 2009.

Loans receivable increased $988,000, or 0.59%, to $168.19 million at September 30, 2009 from $167.20 million at June 30, 2009.  Commercial real estate loans was the loan category with the largest increase, $2.05 million, while residential mortgage loans decreased $2.51 million.  Real estate construction loans also increased $1.48 million.  Most other loan categories showed modest changes.  Total loan originations were $43.07 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009, with single family mortgages accounting for $29.02 million of the total.  Home equity and construction loan originations totaled $4.17 million and $2.5 million, respectively, for the same period.  Commercial real estate and land loan originations totaled $3.47 million.  Loans held-for-sale decreased to $3.49 million at September 30, 2009, from $5.35 million at June 30, 2009.

Deposits grew $7.88 million, or 4.21%, to $195.08 million at September 30, 2009 from $187.20 million at June 30, 2009.  Growth in certificates of deposit and non-interest checking, interest-bearing checking accounts, and savings accounts contributed to the increase in deposits. Money market accounts declined slightly.  Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle (“FHLB”) and other borrowings decreased $417,000, or 0.62%, to $66.64 million at September 30, 2009 from $67.06 million at June 30, 2009.

The increase in total equity was the result of net income of $844,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and an increase in other comprehensive income of $1.89 million (mainly due to an increase in net unrealized gain on securities available-for-sale), offset by dividends paid, consisting of a $0.26 per share regular cash dividend, and treasury stock purchases.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2009 and 2008

Net Income.  Eagle’s net income was $844,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2009.  Because of its election to apply FASB ASC 825, Eagle had a net loss of $100,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2008, stemming primarily from a loss in value of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae preferred stock investments for which the FASB ASC 825 election was applied.  The return to profitability in the first quarter of the 2010 fiscal year reflected the Company’s traditional core earnings and relatively small recovery in value in the Company’s holdings of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac preferred stock of $84,000.  While the Company continues to hold these securities, other value adjustments may occur in future periods under FASB ASC 825.  Eagle’s tax provision was $379,000 higher in the current quarter.  Basic earnings per share were $0.79 for the current period, compared to a negative ($0.09) for the previous year’s period.

Net Interest Income.  Net interest income increased to $2.383 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2009, from $2.236 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2008.  This increase of $147,000 was the result of a decrease in interest expense of $239,000 partially offset by a decrease in interest and dividend income of $92,000.

Interest and Dividend Income.  Total interest and dividend income was $3.724 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2009, compared to $3.816 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2008, representing a decrease of $92,000, or 2.41%.  Interest and fees on loans decreased to $2.708 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009 from $2.837 million for the same period ended September 30, 2008.  This decrease of $129,000, or 4.55%, was due to the decrease in the average balances of loans receivable for the quarter ended September 30, 2009.  Average balances for loans receivable, net, for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 were $171.26 million, compared to $174.37 million for the previous year.  This represents a decrease of $3.11 million, or 1.78%.  The average interest rate earned on loans receivable decreased by 18 basis points, from 6.50% at September 30, 2008 to 6.32% at September 30, 2009.  Interest and dividends on investment securities available-for-sale (AFS) increased to $1.00 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 from $963,000 for the same quarter last year.  Average balances on investments increased to $84.98 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2009, compared to $79.00 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2008.  The average interest rate earned on investments decreased to 4.74% from 4.91%.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Interest Expense.  Total interest expense decreased to $1.341 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2009, from $1.580 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2008, a decrease of $239,000, or 15.13%.  Interest on deposits decreased to $611,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2009, from $862,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2008.  This decrease of $251,000, or 29.12%, was the result of a decrease in average rates paid on deposit accounts from 2.09% at September 30, 2008, to 1.40% at September 30, 2009.  All types of deposit products showed decreases in average rates paid.  Average balances in interest-bearing deposit accounts increased to $174.80 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2009, compared to $165.16 million for the same quarter in the previous year. The increase in the average balance of FHLB and other borrowings resulted in an increase in interest paid on borrowings to $655,000 in the current quarter compared to $643,000 in the previous year’s quarter.  The average rate paid on borrowings decreased from 4.21% for the quarter ended September 30, 2008 to 4.13% for the quarter ended September 30, 2009.  The average rate paid on all liabilities decreased 52 basis points from the quarter ended September 30, 2008 to the quarter ended September 30, 2009.

Provision for Loan Losses.  Provisions for loan losses are charged to earnings to maintain the total allowance for loan losses at a level considered adequate by Eagle’s subsidiary, the Bank, to provide for probable loan losses based on prior loss experience, volume and type of lending conducted by the Bank, national and local economic conditions, and past due loans in portfolio.  The Bank’s policies require the review of assets on a quarterly basis.  The Bank classifies loans as well as other assets if warranted.  While the Bank believes it uses the best information available to make a determination with respect to the allowance for loan losses, it recognizes that future adjustments may be necessary.  A provision of $135,000 was made for loan losses for the quarter ended September 30, 2009, and none in the quarter ended September 30, 2008.  This is a reflection of the continued strong asset quality of the Bank’s loan portfolio, as non-performing loan ratios continue to be below peer averages.  Total classified assets increased from $1.61 million at June 30, 2009 to $1.95 million at September 30, 2009. At quarter end, the Bank had $158,000 in other real estate owned and $5,000 in repossessed property.

Noninterest Income. Total noninterest income increased to $1.061 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2009, from a negative $504,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2008.  As noted above, the loss for the three months ended September 30, 2008 stemmed primarily from a loss in value of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae preferred stock investments for which the FASB ASC 825 election was applied.  Income from the sale of loans increased to $440,000 from $183,000 due to $17.62 million more in mortgage loan sales in the current period versus last year’s period and a relatively small recovery in value in the Company’s holdings of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac preferred stock.

Noninterest Expense.  Noninterest expense increased by $254,000 or 13.74% to $2.103 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2009, from $1.849 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2008.  This increase was primarily due to an increase in FDIC insurance premiums of $58,000 and an increase in salaries and employee benefits of $53,000.  Other expense categories showed minor changes.

Income Tax Expense/Benefit.  Eagle’s income tax expense was $362,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2009, compared to a benefit of $17,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2008.  The effective tax rate for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 was 30.02% and was 14.53% for the quarter ended September 30, 2008.

Liquidity, Interest Rate Sensitivity and Capital Resources

The Company’s subsidiary, the Bank, is required to maintain minimum levels of liquid assets as defined by the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) regulations.  The OTS has eliminated the statutory requirement based upon a percentage of deposits and short-term borrowings.  The OTS states that the liquidity requirement is retained for safety and soundness purposes, and that appropriate levels of liquidity will depend upon the types of activities in which the company engages.  For internal reporting purposes, the Bank uses policy minimums of 1.0%, and 8.0% for “basic surplus” and “basic surplus with FHLB” as internally defined.  In general, the “basic surplus” is a calculation of the ratio of unencumbered short-term assets reduced by estimated percentages of CD maturities and other deposits that may leave the Bank in the next 90 days divided by total assets.  “Basic surplus with FHLB” adds to “basic surplus” the additional borrowing capacity the Bank has with the FHLB.  The Bank exceeded those minimum ratios as of both September 30, 2009 and 2008.

The Bank’s primary sources of funds are deposits, repayment of loans and mortgage-backed securities, maturities of investments, funds provided from operations, and advances from the FHLB.  Scheduled repayments of loans and mortgage-backed securities and maturities of investment securities are generally predictable.  However, other sources of funds, such as deposit flows and loan prepayments, can be greatly influenced by the general level of interest rates, economic conditions and competition.  The Bank uses liquidity resources principally to fund existing and future loan commitments.  It also uses them to fund maturing certificates of deposit, demand deposit withdrawals and to invest in other loans and investments, maintain liquidity, and meet operating expenses.

EAGLE BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARY

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Liquidity may be adversely affected by unexpected deposit outflows, higher interest rates paid by competitors, and similar matters. Management monitors projected liquidity needs and determines the level desirable, based in part on commitments to make loans and management’s assessment of the bank’s ability to generate funds.

At June 30, 2009 (the most recent report available), the Bank’s measure of sensitivity to interest rate movements, as measured by the OTS, slightly worsened from the previous quarter.  The Bank’s capital ratio as measured by the OTS decreased from the previous quarter.  The Bank’s strong capital position mitigates its interest rate risk exposure.  The Bank is well within the guidelines set forth by the Board of Directors for interest rate risk sensitivity.

As of September 30, 2009, the Bank’s regulatory capital was in excess of all applicable regulatory requirements.  At September 30, 2009, the Bank’s tangible, core, and risk-based capital ratios amounted to 9.45%, 9.45, and 13.72%, respectively, compared to regulatory requirements of 1.5%, 3.0%, and 8.0%, respectively.  See the following table (dollars in thousands):

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices

Our financial statements and the accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without considering the change in the relative purchasing power of money over time and due to inflation.  The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of our operations.  Interest rates have a greater impact on our performance than do the 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.
