NOTE 1. NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Business
SI Financial Group, Inc. (the “Company”) is the holding company for Savings Institute Bank and Trust Company (the “Bank”). Established in 1842, the Bank is a community-oriented financial institution headquartered in Willimantic, Connecticut. The Bank provides a variety of financial services to individuals, businesses and municipalities through its twenty-one offices in eastern Connecticut. Its primary products include savings, checking and certificate of deposit accounts, residential and commercial mortgage loans, commercial business loans and consumer loans. In addition, wealth management services, which include trust, financial planning, life insurance and investment services, are offered to individuals and businesses through the Bank’s Connecticut offices. SI Trust Servicing, the third-party provider of trust outsourcing services for community banks, expands the wealth management products offered by the Bank, and offers trust services to other community banks. The Company does not conduct any material business other than owning all of the stock of the Bank and making payments on the subordinated debentures it holds.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, the Bank, and the Bank’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, 803 Financial Corp., SI Mortgage Company and SI Realty Company, Inc. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Basis of Financial Statement Presentation
The interim consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and general practices within the banking industry. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements have been omitted. Information in the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements and notes to the financial statements of the Company as of September 30, 2010 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 is unaudited. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements of the Company and the accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2009 contained in the Company’s
Form 10-K.
Interim financial statements are subject to possible adjustment in connection with the annual audit of the Company for the year ending December 31, 2010. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all of the adjustments, consisting only of normal and recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows as of and for the period covered herein. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the year ending December 31, 2010.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities, as of the date of the balance sheets and reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the periods presented. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) of securities, deferred income taxes and the impairment of long-lived assets.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2010 AND 2009 AND DECEMBER 31, 2009
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the Company’s 2009 consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2010 presentation. Income statement amounts totaling $417,000 and $978,000 of net deferred loan origination fees and costs were reclassified from salaries and benefits expense to loan interest and fee income and mortgage banking fees for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, respectively. Such reclassifications had no effect on net income.
Derivative Financial Instruments
Derivative financial instruments are recognized as assets and liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet and measured at fair value.
Interest Rate Swap Agreement
The Company uses an interest rate swap agreement, as part of its interest rate risk management strategy, to hedge various exposures or to modify interest rate characteristics of certain balance sheet accounts. Interest rate swaps are contracts in which a series of interest rate flows are exchanged over a prescribed period. The notional amount on which the interest payments are based is not exchanged. The Company’s swap agreement is a derivative instrument and generally converts a portion of the Company’s variable-rate debt to a fixed rate.
The Company has characterized its interest rate swap as a cash flow hedge. Cash flow hedges are used to minimize the variability in cash flows of assets or liabilities, or forecasted transactions caused by interest rate fluctuations, and are recorded at fair value in other assets or liabilities within the Company’s balance sheets. Changes in the fair value of these cash flow hedges are initially recorded as a component of other comprehensive income and subsequently reclassified into earnings when the hedged transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the gain or loss on derivative instrument, if any, is recognized in earnings.
Interest rate derivative financial instruments receive hedge accounting treatment only if they are designated as a hedge and are expected to be, and are, effective in substantially reducing interest rate risk arising from the assets and liabilities identified as exposing the Company to risk. Those derivative financial instruments that do not meet specified hedging criteria would be recorded at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in earnings. If periodic assessment indicates derivatives no longer provide an effective hedge, the derivative contracts would be closed out and settled, or classified as a trading activity.
For cash flow hedges, the net settlement (upon close-out or termination) that offsets changes in the value of the hedged debt is deferred and amortized into net interest income over the life of the hedged debt. The portion, if any, of the net settlement amount that did not offset changes in the value of the hedged asset or liability is recognized immediately in noninterest income.
Cash flows resulting from the derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as hedges of assets and liabilities are classified in the cash flow statement in the same category as the cash flows of the items being hedged.
Trading Activities
Securities that are held principally for resale in the near term are recorded in the trading securities account at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in earnings. Interest and dividends are included in net interest income.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2010 AND 2009 AND DECEMBER 31, 2009
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Transfers of Financial Assets – In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued new requirements related to the accounting for transfers of financial assets, including securitization transactions. These requirements: (1) eliminate the concept of a qualifying special-purpose entity, (2) change the requirements for derecognizing financial assets and (3) require additional disclosures to enhance information reported to users of financial statements by providing greater transparency about transfers of financial assets and an entity’s continuing involvement in transferred financial assets. These requirements were effective for a reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009. Transfers of financial assets occurring on or after the effective date are subject to the new requirements. The Company adopted these new requirements effective January 1, 2010, which did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Fair Value Measurement Disclosures – In January 2010, the FASB amended its standards related to the disclosure of fair value measurements to require: (1) separate disclosure of significant amounts transferred in and out of Levels 1 and 2 fair value measurement categories, (2) a reconciliation of activity in the Level 3 fair value measurement category to present separately information relating to purchases, sales, issuances and settlements, (3) greater disaggregation of the assets and liabilities for which fair value measurements are presented and (4) expanded disclosure of the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure assets and liabilities in Levels 2 and 3 fair value measurement categories. The Company adopted these amendments effective January 1, 2010, with the exception of the requirement related to the reconciliation of activity in Level 3 fair value measurement category, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. The adoption of this amendment did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Subsequent Events – In February 2010, the FASB amended its standard to require SEC filers to evaluate subsequent events through the date the financial statements are issued and eliminates the requirement to disclose the evaluation date in both issued and revised financial statements to alleviate potential conflicts with SEC requirements. This amendment was effective upon issuance and did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Scope Exception Related to Embedded Credit Derivatives– In March 2010, the FASB amended its standards related to derivatives and hedging to clarify that the only form of an embedded credit derivative that is exempt from embedded derivative bifurcation requirements are those that relate to the subordination of one financial instrument to another. As a result, entities that have contracts containing an embedded credit derivative feature in a form other than such subordination may need to separately account for the embedded credit derivative feature. Upon initially adopting the amendments of this update, an entity may elect the fair value option for any investment in a beneficial interest in a securitized financial asset. The provisions of the update became effective on July 1, 2010. The Company recorded a cumulative effect adjustment for a change in accounting principle as a reduction to retained earnings and an increase in accumulated other comprehensive income of $652,000 related to the adoption of this update.
Effect of a Loan Modification When the Loan Is Part of a Pool That is Accounted for as a Single Asset - In April 2010, the FASB issued guidance on accounting for acquired loans that have evidence of credit deterioration upon acquisition. It allows acquired assets with common risk characteristics to be accounted for in the aggregate as a pool. This update is effective for modifications of loans accounted for with pools in the first interim or annual period ending on or after July 15, 2010. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses -In July 2010, the FASB issued guidance requiring additional disclosures that facilitate financial statement users’ evaluation of: (1) the nature of credit risk inherent in the entity’s portfolio of financing receivables, (2) how that risk is analyzed and assessed in arriving at the allowance for credit losses and (3) the changes and reasons for those

changes in the allowance for credit losses. For public entities, the disclosures as of the end of a reporting period are effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending on or after December 15, 2010 and the disclosures about activity that occurs during a reporting period are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010. This amendment is expected to have a significant impact on the disclosures in Company’s consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 2. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
Basic net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Unvested restricted shares are considered outstanding in the computation of basic earnings per share since the shares participate in dividends and the right to the dividends are non-forfeitable. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed in a manner similar to basic net income per share except that the weighted average number of shares outstanding is increased to include the incremental common shares (as computed using the treasury stock method) that would have been outstanding if all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents were issued during the period. The Company’s common stock equivalents relate solely to stock options. Treasury shares and unallocated common shares held by the Bank’s Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”) are not deemed outstanding for earnings per share calculations.
Anti-dilutive shares include common stock equivalents with weighted average exercise prices in excess of the weighted average market value for the periods presented. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, all common stock equivalents were anti-dilutive and were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share. The Company had weighted average anti-dilutive options outstanding of 426,750 and 433,640 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively, and 468,837 and 473,271 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, respectively. The computation of earnings per share is as follows:

NOTE 3. SECURITIES
Trading securities:
During the third quarter of 2010, the Company elected to fair value two collateralized debt obligations, previously reported as available for sale securities, and report them as trading securities in accordance with applicable guidance. These securities had an amortized cost of $526,000 and $1.7 million and fair value of $526,000 and $739,000 at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. Cumulative unrealized losses at the date of election totaling $652,000 were reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings as a cumulative effect adjustment resulting from a change in accounting principle. The Company does not purchase securities with the intent of selling them in the near term, thus there are no other securities in the trading portfolio. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, the net losses recognized on trading activities were $129,000 and $0, respectively.

SEPTEMBER 30, 2010 AND 2009 AND DECEMBER 31, 2009
Management evaluates securities for OTTI at least on a quarterly basis and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such an evaluation. The evaluation is based upon factors such as the creditworthiness of the issuers/guarantors, the underlying collateral, if applicable, and the continuing performance of the securities. Management also evaluates other facts and circumstances that may be indicative of an OTTI condition. These include, but are not limited to, an evaluation of the type of security, length of time and extent to which the fair value has been less than cost and near-term prospects of the issuers. Marketable equity securities are evaluated for OTTI based on the severity and duration of the impairment and, if deemed to be other-than-temporary, the declines in fair value are reflected in earnings as realized losses. For debt securities, OTTI is required to be recognized if: (1) the Company intends to sell the security; (2) it is“more likely than not”that the Company will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis; or (3) the present value of expected cash flows is not sufficient to recover the entire amortized cost basis. For all impaired debt securities that the Company intends to sell, or more likely than not will be required to sell, the full amount of the depreciation is recognized as OTTI through earnings. Credit-related OTTI for all other impaired debt securities is recognized through earnings. Noncredit-related OTTI for such debt securities is recognized in other comprehensive income, net of applicable taxes.
At September 30, 2010, thirty-one debt securities with gross unrealized losses had aggregate depreciation of 10.34% of the Company’s amortized cost basis. The majority of the unrealized losses related to the Company’s non-agency mortgage-backed securities and collateralized debt obligations as discussed below.
Debt Securities:
U.S. Government and Agency Obligations and Government-Sponsored Enterprises. The unrealized losses on the Company’s U.S. Government and agency obligations and government-sponsored enterprises related primarily to a widening of the rate spread to comparable treasury securities. The contractual terms of these investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized cost basis of the investments. Because the decline in market value is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality and because the Company does not intend to sell these securities and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the securities before their anticipated recovery, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at September 30, 2010.
Mortgage-backed Securities – Agency - Residential.The unrealized losses on the Company’s agency–residential mortgage-backed securities were caused by increases in the rate spread to comparable treasury securities. The Company does not expect these securities to settle at a price less than the amortized cost basis of the investments. Because the Company does not intend to sell the investments and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the investments before the recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be at maturity, the Company does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at September 30, 2010.
Mortgage-backed Securities - Non-agency - Residential.The unrealized losses on the Company’s non-agency-residential mortgage-backed securities are primarily due to the fact that these securities continue to trade well below historic levels, particularly those backed by jumbo or hybrid loan collateral. In particular, three non-agency mortgage-backed securities displayed market pricing below book value and were rated below investment grade at September 30, 2010. At September 30, 2010, management evaluated credit rating details for the tranche owned, as well as credit information on subordinate tranches, potential future credit losses and loss analyses. Additionally, management reviewed reports prepared by an independent third party for certain non-agency mortgage-backed securities. The Company previously recorded OTTI on one of these non-agency mortgage-backed securities totaling $899,000 related to credit and recognized additional credit-related losses of $160,000 during the quarter ended September 30, 2010. The Company did not record any further impairment losses at September 30, 2010 because the Company does not intend to sell the investments and it is not

more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be at maturity. See the table of non-agency mortgage-backed securities rated below investment grade as of September 30, 2010 for more details.
Mortgage-backed Securities - Non-agency - HELOC.The unrealized loss on the Company’s non-agency - HELOC mortgage-backed security is related to one security whose market has been illiquid. This security is collateralized by home equity lines of credit secured by first and second liens and insured by Financial Security Assurance. At September 30, 2010, management evaluated credit rating details, collateral support and loss analyses. All of the unrealized losses on this security relate to factors other than credit. Because the Company does not intend to sell this security and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell this security before the recovery of its amortized cost basis, which may be at maturity, the Company did not record an impairment loss at September 30, 2010.
Collateralized Debt Obligations. The unrealized losses on the Company’s collateralized debt obligations related to investments in pooled trust preferred securities (“PTPS”). The PTPS market continues to experience significant declines in market value as a result of market saturation. Transactions for PTPS have been limited and have occurred primarily as a result of distressed or forced liquidation sales.
Management evaluated current credit ratings, credit support and stress testing for future defaults related to the Company’s PTPS. Management also reviewed analytics provided by the trustee and independent OTTI review and associated cash flow analyses performed by an independent third party. The unrealized losses on the Company’s PTPS investments were caused by a lack of liquidity, credit downgrades and decreasing credit support. The increased number of bank and insurance company failures has decreased the level of credit support for these investments. A number of lower tranche income issues have foregone payments or have received payment in kind through increased principal allocations. The Company previously recorded OTTI losses on three PTPS investments totaling $1.2 million related to credit factors. During the third quarter, the Company elected to fair value two of these investments, which accounted for nearly all of the previously recorded OTTI. At September 30, 2010, based on the existing credit profile, management does not believe that these investments will suffer from any further credit-related losses. Because the Company does not intend to sell the investments and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be at maturity, the Company did not record additional impairment losses at September 30, 2010.See the table of collateralized debt obligations rated below investment grade as of September 30, 2010 for more details.
Equity Securities:
The Company’s investments in marketable equity securities consist of common and preferred stock of companies in the financial services sector. Management evaluated the near-term prospects of the issuers and the Company’s ability and intent to hold the investments for a reasonable period of time sufficient for an anticipated recovery of fair value. Although the issuers have shown declines in earnings as a result of the weakened economy, no credit issues have been identified that cause management to believe that the declines in market value are other-than-temporary at September 30, 2010.
As of September 30, 2010, for debt securities with OTTI losses, the Company estimated the portion of loss attributable to credit using a discounted cash flow model in accordance with applicable guidance. Significant inputs for the non-agency mortgage-backed securities included the estimated cash flows of the underlying collateral based on key assumptions, such as default rate, loss severity and prepayment rate. Assumptions used can vary widely from loan to loan, and are influenced by such factors as loan interest rate, geographical location of the borrower, borrower characteristics and collateral type. Significant inputs for the collateralized debt obligations included estimated cash flows and prospective deferrals, defaults and recoveries based on the underlying seniority status and subordination structure of the pooled trust

preferred debt tranche at the time of measurement. Prospective deferral, default and recovery estimates affecting projected cash flows were based on an analysis of the underlying financial condition of the individual issuers, with consideration of the account’s capital adequacy, credit quality, lending concentrations and other factors. All cash flow estimates were based on the securities’ tranche structure and contractual rate and maturity terms. The Company utilized the services of a third-party valuation firm to obtain information about the structure in order to determine how the underlying collateral cash flows will be distributed to each security issued from the structure. The present value of the expected cash flows was compared to the Company’s holdings to determine the credit-related impairment loss, if any. To the extent that continued changes in interest rates, credit movements and other factors that influence fair value of investments occur, the Company may be required to record additional impairment charges for OTTI in future periods.
The following table details the Company’s non-agency mortgage-backed security holdings that are rated below investment grade as of September 30, 2010 (dollars in thousands).

NOTE 7. REGULATORY CAPITAL
The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the Office of Thrift Supervision (the “OTS”), including a risk-based capital measure. The risk-based capital guidelines include both a definition of capital and a framework for calculating risk-weighted assets by assigning balance sheet assets and off-balance sheet items to broad risk categories. As a savings and loan holding company regulated by the OTS, the Company is not subject to any separate regulatory capital requirements.
At September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which it was subject and the Bank was considered “well capitalized” under regulatory guidelines at each of those dates. There are no conditions or events since then that management believes have changed the Bank’s regulatory category.
The following is a summary of the Bank’s regulatory capital amounts and ratios as of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009.

NOTE 8. INCOME TAXES
The Company does not have any uncertain tax positions as of September 30, 2010 which requires accrual or disclosure. In accordance with the provisions of applicable accounting guidance, in future periods, the Company may record a liability for unrecognized tax benefits related to the recognition, derecognition or change in measurement of a tax position as a result of new tax positions, changes in management’s judgment about the level of uncertainty of existing tax positions, expiration of open income tax returns due to the statutes of limitation, status of examinations and litigation and legislative activity.
The Company has elected to report future interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as income tax expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.
With limited exception, the Company is no longer subject to United States federal, state and local income tax examinations by the tax authorities for the years prior to 2007.
NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
Fair Value Hierarchy
The Company groups its financial assets and financial liabilities in three levels based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value.
Level 1: | Valuation is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 1 assets and liabilities generally include debt and equity securities that are traded in an active exchange market. Valuations are obtained from readily available pricing sources for market transactions involving identical assets or liabilities. | |
Level 2: | Valuation is based on observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. | |
Level 3: | Valuation is based on unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation. |
Determination of Fair Value
The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. The fair value of a financial instrument is the price that would be
20
Table of Contents
SI FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2010 AND 2009 AND DECEMBER 31, 2009
received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is best determined based upon quoted market prices. However, in many instances, there are no quoted market prices for the Company’s various financial instruments. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. Accordingly, the fair value estimates may not be realized in an immediate settlement of the instrument.
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating fair value disclosures of its financial instruments:
• | Cash and cash equivalents.The carrying amounts of cash and short-term instruments approximate the fair values based on the short-term nature of the assets. |
• | Trading securities. The Company holds two securities designated as trading securities. The determination of the fair value for these securities is determined based on a discounted cash flow methodology. Certain inputs to the fair value calculation are unobservable and management determined that since an orderly and active market for these securities did not exist, the securities meet the definition of Level 3 securities. |
• | Securities available for sale.Included in the available for sale category are both debt and equity securities. The securities measured at fair value in Level 1 are based on quoted market prices in an active exchange market. Securities measured at fair value in Level 2 are based on pricing models that consider standard input factors such as observable market data, benchmark yields, interest rate volatilities, broker/dealer quotes, credit spreads and new issue data. The Company utilizes Interactive Data Corporation (“IDC”), a third-party, nationally-recognized pricing service to estimate fair value measurements for the majority of its portfolio. The pricing service evaluates each asset class based on relevant market information considering observable data but these prices do not represent binding quotes. The fair value prices on all investments are reviewed for reasonableness by management, which resulted in no adjustments to the IDC pricing as of September 30, 2010. Securities measured at fair value in Level 3 include collateralized debt obligations that are backed by trust preferred securities issued by banks, thrifts and insurance companies. Management determined that an orderly and active market for these securities and similar securities did not exist based on a significant reduction in trading volume and widening spreads relative to historical levels. The Company estimates future cash flows discounted using a rate management believes is representative of current market conditions. Factors in determining the discount rate include the current level of deferrals and/or defaults and changes in credit rating as described in Note 3 and the financial condition of the debtors within the underlying securities, broker quotes for securities with similar structure and credit risk, interest rate movements and pricing for new issuances. |
• | Federal Home Loan Bank stock.The carrying value of Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) stock approximates fair value based on the redemption provisions of the Federal Home Loan Bank. |
• | Loans held for sale.The fair value of loans held for sale is estimated using quoted market prices. |
• | Loans receivable. For variable rate loans which reprice frequently and have no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values. The fair value of fixed-rate loans are estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the year-end rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. |

SI FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2010 AND 2009 AND DECEMBER 31, 2009
• | Accrued interest receivable. The carrying amount of accrued interest approximates fair value. |
• | Deposits. The fair value of demand deposits, negotiable orders of withdrawal, regular savings, certain money market deposits and mortgagors’ and investors’ escrow accounts is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of certificates of deposit and other time deposits is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities to a schedule of aggregated expected maturities on such deposits. |
• | Federal Home Loan Bank advances. The fair value of the advances is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies current FHLB interest rates for advances of similar maturity to a schedule of maturities of such advances. |
• | Junior subordinated debt owed to unconsolidated trust. Rates currently available for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities are used to estimate fair value of existing debt. |
• | Derivative liability. The fair value of the Company’s interest rate swap is obtained from a third-party pricing service and is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of the derivative. The pricing analysis is based on observable inputs for the contractual term of the derivative, including the period to maturity and interest rate curves. |
• | Off-balance sheet instruments. Fair values for off-balance sheet lending commitments are based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standings. |
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
The following table presents assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009. There were no liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2009. The Company had no significant transfers into or out of Levels 1, 2 or 3 during the nine months ended September 30, 2010.

Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
The Company may also be required, from time to time, to measure certain other financial assets on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. These adjustments to fair value usually result from the application of lower-of-cost-or-market accounting or adjustments of individual assets. The following table summarizes the fair value hierarchy used to determine each adjustment and the carrying value of the related individual assets as of September 30, 2010 and 2009. The losses (gains) represent the amount of adjustments recorded on assets held at September 30, 2010 and 2009. There were no liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis at September 30, 2010 or 2009.

The Company measures the impairment of loans that are collateral dependent based on the fair value of the collateral (Level 3). The fair value of collateral used by the Company represents the amount expected to be received from the sale of the property, net of selling costs, as determined by an independent, licensed or certified appraiser using observable market data. This data includes information such as selling price of similar properties, expected future cash flows or earnings of the subject property based on current market expectations, relevant legal, physical and economic factors. Losses applicable to write-downs of impaired loans are based on the appraised market value of the underlying collateral, assuming foreclosure of these loans is imminent.
The amount of other real estate owned represents the carrying value of the collateral based on the appraised value of the underlying collateral less selling costs. The Company recognized losses of $40,000 and $282,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 to reduce the carrying value on other real estate owned at September 30, 2010. There were no recognized losses on other real estate owned for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009.
Summary of Fair Values of Financial Instruments
The estimated fair values, and related carrying or notional amounts, of the Company’s financial instruments are presented in the following table. Certain financial instruments and all nonfinancial instruments are exempt from disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented do not represent the underlying value of the Company.
Management uses its best judgment in estimating the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments; however, there are inherent weaknesses in any estimation technique. Therefore, for substantially all financial instruments, the fair value estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could have realized in a sales transaction at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009. The estimated fair value amounts at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 have been measured as of each respective date, and the estimated fair value amounts at December 31, 2009 have not been re-evaluated or updated for purposes of the consolidated financial statements subsequent to that date. As such, the estimated fair values of these financial instruments subsequent to the respective reporting dates may be different than the amounts reported at each period-end. The information presented should not be interpreted as an estimate of the fair value of the entire Company since a fair value calculation is only required for a limited portion of the Company’s assets. Due to the wide range of valuation techniques and the degree of subjectivity used in making the estimate, comparisons between the Company’s disclosures and those of other banks may not be meaningful.

Off-Balance Sheet Instruments
Loan commitments on which the committed interest rate is less than the current market rate are immaterial at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009.
The Company assumes interest rate risk, which represents the risk that general interest rate levels will change, as a result of its normal operations. As a result, the fair values of the Company’s financial instruments will change when interest rate levels change and that change may be either favorable or unfavorable to the Company. Management attempts to match maturities of assets and liabilities to the extent believed necessary to minimize interest rate risk. However, borrowers with fixed-rate obligations are less likely to prepay in a rising rate environment and more likely to prepay in a falling rate environment. Conversely, depositors who are receiving fixed rates are more likely to withdraw funds before maturity in a rising rate environment and less likely to do so in a falling rate environment. Management monitors rates and maturities of assets and liabilities and attempts to minimize interest rate risk by adjusting terms of new loans and deposits and by investing in securities with terms that mitigate the Company’s overall interest rate risk.
NOTE 10. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
As part of the Company’s risk management strategy, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement on July 1, 2010 with a notional value of $8.0 million to convert the floating rate interest on its junior subordinated debentures to a fixed rate of interest. The agreement provides for the Company to receive payments at a variable rate determined by a specified index (three-month LIBOR) in exchange for making payments at a fixed rate. The purpose of the hedge was to protect the Company from the risk of variability arising from the floating interest rate on the debentures. The agreement is entered into with a counterparty that meets established credit standards and contains master netting and collateral provisions protecting the at-risk party. The Company believes that the credit risk inherent in this contract was not significant at September 30, 2010.

The effective portion of unrealized changes in the fair value of derivative accounted as a cash flow hedge is reported in other comprehensive income and subsequently reclassified to earnings when gains or losses are realized. Each quarter, the Company assesses the effectiveness of the hedge by comparing the changes in cash flows of the derivative hedging instrument with the changes in cash flows of the designated hedged transaction. The ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized into earnings, if any.
The unrealized loss relating to the Company’s interest rate swap was recorded as a derivative liability. Changes in the fair value of interest rate swaps designated as a cash flow hedge are reported in other comprehensive income. This amount is subsequently reclassified into interest expense as a yield adjustment in the same period in which the related interest on the junior subordinated debt affects earnings. No amount of other comprehensive income was reclassified into interest expense during the period ended September 30, 2010.
NOTE 11. SECOND STEP CONVERSION
On September 9, 2010, the Company, the Bank and SI Bancorp, MHC adopted a Plan of Conversion and Reorganization (the “Plan of Conversion”) pursuant to which the Bank will reorganize from the two-tier mutual holding company structure to the stock holding company structure. Pursuant to the Plan of Conversion, (i) SI Bancorp, MHC will merge with and into SI Financial Group, with SI Financial Group as surviving entity (the “MHC Merger”), (ii) SI Financial Group will merge with and into new SI Financial Group (the “Holding Company”), a newly formed Maryland Corporation, with Holding Company as the surviving entity, (iii) the Bank will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Holding Company, (iv) the shares of common stock of the Company held by persons other than SI Bancorp, MHC will be converted into shares of common stock of the Holding Company pursuant to an exchange ratio designed to preserve the percentage ownership interests of such persons, (v) the Bank will issue all of its capital stock to SI Financial Group and (vi) the Holding Company will offer and sell shares of common stock to depositors of the Bank and others in the manner and subject to the priorities set forth in the Plan of Conversion.
In connection with the conversion and offering, shares of the Company’s common stock currently owned by SI Bancorp, MHC will be canceled and new shares of common stock, representing the approximate 61.9% ownership interest of SI Bancorp, MHC, will be offered for sale by the Holding Company. Concurrent with the completion of the conversion and offering, the Company’s existing public shareholders will receive shares of the Holding Company’s common stock for each share of the Company’s common stock they own at that date, based on an exchange ratio to ensure that they will own approximately the same percentage of the Holding Company’s common stock as they owned of the Company’s common stock immediately prior to the conversion and offering.
At the time of conversion, liquidation accounts shall be established in an amount equal to the percentage of the outstanding shares of the Company owned by SI Bancorp, MHC before the MHC Merger, multiplied by the Company’s total stockholders’ equity as reflected in the latest statement of financial condition contained in the final offering prospectus for the conversion plus the value of the net assets of SI Bancorp, MHC as reflected in the latest statement of financial condition of SI Bancorp, MHC before the effective date of the conversion. The liquidation account will be maintained for the benefit of eligible account holders and supplemental eligible account holders (collectively, “eligible depositors”) who continue to maintain their deposit accounts in the Bank after the conversion. In the event of a complete liquidation of the Bank or the Bank and the Holding Company (and only in such event), eligible depositors who continue to maintain accounts shall be entitled to receive a distribution from the liquidation account before any liquidation may be made with respect to common stock. Neither the Holding Company nor the Bank may

declare or pay a cash dividend if the effect thereof would cause its equity to be reduced below either the amount required for the liquidation account or the regulatory capital requirements imposed by the Office of Thrift Supervision.
The transactions contemplated by the Plan of Conversion are subject to approval by the shareholders of the Company, the members of SI Bancorp, MHC and the Office of Thrift Supervision. Meetings of the Company’s shareholders and SI Bancorp, MHC’s members are expected to be held to approve the Plan of Conversion in the fourth quarter of 2010. If the conversion and offering are completed, eligible conversion and offering costs will be netted against the offering proceeds. If the conversion and offering are terminated, such costs will be expensed. As of September 30, 2010, the Company incurred costs aggregating $241,000 related to the conversion.
NOTE 12. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
On October 27, 2010, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.03 per share, to be paid on or about November 26, 2010 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on November 8, 2010. SI Bancorp, MHC, the Company’s mutual holding company parent, intends to waive receipt of its dividend.

Comparison of Financial Condition at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009
Assets:
Summary.Total assets increased $17.9 million, or 2.1%, to $890.3 million at September 30, 2010 from $872.4 million at December 31, 2009, principally due to increases of $27.7 million in cash and cash equivalents and $6.7 million in loans held for sale, offset by decreases of $9.8 million in securities, $3.1 million in net loans receivable, $1.4 million in other real estate owned, $806,000 in net deferred tax assets, $782,000 in premises and equipment and $734,000 in prepaid FDIC deposit insurance assessment. Cash and cash equivalents increased as a result of an increase in deposits and security sales. The sale of mortgage-backed securities and U.S. government and agency obligations contributed to the decline in securities. The increase in net unrealized gains on available for sale securities resulted in a decrease in net deferred tax assets. Accumulated depreciation and amortization expense contributed to the decrease in premises and equipment at September 30, 2010.
Loans Receivable, Net.The net loan portfolio decreased $3.1 million. Loan originations decreased $42.8 million, or 34.1%, during 2010 as related to the comparable period in 2009 due to reduced demand and more stringent underwriting standards, as a result of adverse economic conditions. Changes in the loan portfolio consisted of the following:
• | Residential Loans. Residential mortgage loans continue to represent the largest segment of the Company’s loan portfolio at September 30, 2010, comprising 46.3% of the total loan portfolio. Residential mortgage loans decreased $24.7 million, or 8.1%. Contributing to the decrease was the sale of $28.1 million of longer-term fixed-rate residential mortgage loans. Residential construction loans increased $1.6 million, or 35.4%, and represented 1.0% of the total loan portfolio. Loan originations for residential loans decreased $48.2 million for the first nine months of 2010 over the comparable period in 2009. |
• | Commercial Loans. At September 30, 2010, the commercial loan portfolio, which includes multi-family and commercial mortgage loans, commercial construction loans and commercial business loans, represented 48.0% of total loans. Multi-family and commercial mortgage loans increased $3.9 million, or 2.4%, offset by a decrease in commercial construction loans of $2.8 million. Loan originations for commercial mortgage loans increased $3.7 million during the first nine months of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009. Commercial business loans increased $16.5 million, or 15.3%, for 2010 primarily due to the purchase of $29.3 million in United States Department of Agriculture (“USDA”) and Small Business Administration (“SBA”) loans that are fully guaranteed by the U.S. Government. Loan originations for commercial business loans increased $1.6 million during the first nine months of 2010 compared same period in 2009. |
• | Consumer Loans. Consumer loans represent 4.7% of the Company’s total loan portfolio. Consumer loans increased $2.5 million during the first nine months of 2010. Increases in home equity loans of $2.6 million were offset by decreases in other consumer loans. Loan originations for consumer loans decreased $9,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 from the comparable period in 2009. |
The allowance for loan losses totaled $5.0 million and $4.9 million at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to total loans increased slightly from 0.80% at December 31, 2009 to 0.81% at September 30, 2010. The USDA and SBA loan purchases, which are fully guaranteed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government, required no allowance for loan losses.

Other real estate owned decreased $1.4 million from December 31, 2009 to September 30, 2010, primarily as a result of the sale of five residential and two commercial properties with an aggregate carrying value of $2.8 million. During the first nine months of 2010, the Company acquired one commercial and six residential properties with a carrying value totaling $1.6 million. The Company recorded write-downs on other real estate owned totaling $40,000 and $282,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively.
Troubled debt restructurings, which consisted of three commercial loans modified with interest rate concessions, totaled $3.5 million at September 30, 2010. The Company anticipates that the borrowers will repay all contractual principal and interest in accordance with the terms of their restructured loan agreements.
Liabilities:
Summary. Total liabilities were $808.4 million at September 30, 2010 compared to $794.9 million at December 31, 2009. Deposits, excluding escrow accounts, increased $15.5 million, or 2.4%, which included increases in NOW and money market accounts of $26.3 million and savings accounts of $1.5 million, offset by decreases in certificates of deposit of $11.6 million and noninterest-bearing deposits of $699,000. Deposit growth was attributable to marketing and promotional initiatives and competitively-priced deposit products. Borrowings decreased $1.9 million from $124.3 million at December 31, 2009 to $122.4 million at September 30, 2010, resulting from net repayments of Federal Home Loan Bank advances.

Equity:
Summary. Total stockholders’ equity increased $4.4 million from $77.5 million at December 31, 2009 to $81.9 million at September 30, 2010. The increase in stockholders’ equity was attributable to an increase in net unrealized gains on securities aggregating $2.6 million (net of taxes) and earnings of $2.0 million, offset by dividends of $250,000 and a net unrealized loss on an interest rate swap derivative of $223,000. On July 1, 2010, the Company recognized a cumulative effect adjustment for a change in accounting principle of $652,000 as a reduction in retained earnings and a corresponding increase in accumulated other comprehensive income as a result of electing to fair value two investments in the Company’s securities portfolio in accordance with guidance provided by FASB’sScope Exception Related to Embedded Credit Derivatives.See Note 1 under “Recent Accounting Pronouncements” for more details.
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. Accumulated other comprehensive income is comprised of the unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities, net of taxes and unrealized gains and losses on derivative instruments, net of taxes. Net unrealized gains on securities, net of taxes, totaled $818,000 at September 30, 2010 as compared to net unrealized losses, net of taxes, totaling $2.4 million at December 31, 2009. Unrealized losses on available for sale securities at December 31, 2009 resulted from a decline in the market value of primarily the debt securities portfolio, which was recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the consolidated balance sheets and a component of comprehensive income on the consolidated statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. A majority of the unrealized losses at December 31, 2009 related to the Company’s collateralized debt obligations and non-agency mortgage-backed securities. The Company does not intend to sell such securities and it is not more likely than not that it will be required to sell such securities prior to the recovery of its amortized cost basis, which may be at maturity, less any credit losses. Net unrealized losses on derivative instruments, net of taxes, totaled $223,000 and $0 at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.
Results of Operations for the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2010 and 2009
General.The Company reported net income of $838,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2010, an increase of $460,000, compared to net income of $378,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The Company reported net income of $2.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, an increase of $2.2 million, compared to a net loss of $185,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The increase in net income was due an increase in net interest income, a decrease in the provision for loan losses and for the nine-month period, an increase in noninterest income, offset by increases in the provision for income taxes and noninterest expenses.
Interest and Dividend Income.For the three months ended September 30, 2010, interest and dividend income decreased $847,000, or 7.9%, to $9.9 million due to lower yields earned on interest-earning assets and a decrease in the average balance of loans, offset by an increase in the average balance of securities and other interest-earning assets. The yield on interest-earning assets decreased 50 basis points to 4.66%. The Company experienced declines in the average balance of loans of $19.4 million and the yield on loans of 15 basis points. The average balance of securities rose $13.3 million, offset by a decrease in the yield of 106 basis points.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, interest and dividend income decreased $2.8 million, or 8.5%, to $30.1 million due to a lower yield earned on interest-earning assets and a decrease in the average balance of loans, offset by an increase in the average balance of securities and other interest-earning assets. The yield on interest-earning assets decreased 53 basis points to 4.84%, with the yield on securities contributing the largest decrease of 122 basis points to 3.41%. The Company experienced declines in the average balance of loans of $19.0 million and the yield on loans of 19 basis points. The decreases in yields were due to lower market interest rates.
Interest Expense.For the three months ended September 30, 2010, interest expense decreased $1.3 million due to lower rates paid on deposits and borrowings and a $13.0 million decrease in the average balance of
31

The rates paid on Federal Home Loan Bank advances and subordinated debt decreased 52 basis points and 14 basis points, respectively.
Interest expense decreased $3.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 versus the comparable period of 2009, resulting from decreases in the rates paid on deposits and borrowings and a $19.4 million decrease in the average balance of Federal Home Loan Bank advances, offset by an increase in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits of $25.9 million. Rates paid on average deposits decreased 71 basis points from 2.33% to 1.62%. The rates paid on Federal Home Loan Bank advances and subordinated debt decreased 56 basis points and 86 basis points, respectively. Contributing to the higher average deposits was an increase in predominately NOW and money market accounts of $36.1 million, offset by a decrease of $12.1 million in certificates of deposit.

Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses decreased $430,000 and $1.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively, compared to the same periods in the prior year. The lower provision in 2010 resulted from declines in nonperforming loans and net loan charge-offs, predominately in commercial real estate loans. At September 30, 2010, nonperforming loans totaled $4.2 million, compared to $6.7 million at September 30, 2009. Specific loan allowances relating to nonperforming loans decreased to $449,000 at September 30, 2010, compared to $721,000 at September 30, 2009. Net loan charge-offs were $152,000 and $587,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively, compared to $272,000 and $3.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, respectively. Higher loan charge-offs for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 primarily related to two commercial construction relationships aggregating $2.3 million.

Wealth management fees rose $28,000 and $155,000, resulting from an increase in trust service fees for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2009. Service fees increased $86,000 for the first nine months of 2010 primarily due to higher electronic banking usage, despite a decline of $43,000 from the comparable quarter in 2009. The Company recorded other-than-temporary impairment charges on one non-agency mortgage-backed security totaling $160,000 and $492,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively, compared to $0 and $150,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, respectively. Higher other noninterest income for the third quarter of 2009 reflected $291,000 in death benefit proceeds received from a bank-owned life insurance policy. Other noninterest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was offset by impairment charges of $12,000 to reduce the carrying value in the Bank’s small business investment company limited partnerships, compared to impairment charges of $383,000 for the same period in 2009.

Salary expense and related payroll taxes were lower for 2010 compared to 2009 due to reduced staffing. For both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company experienced increases in costs associated with other real estate owned and in computer and electronic banking services expense as result of increased telecommunications costs and transaction activity. Noninterest expenses for 2009 reflected an FDIC-imposed industry-wide 5 basis point special assessment of $393,000 and prepayment penalties totaling $111,000 for the early extinguishment of Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings.
Income Tax Provision.For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, the provision for income taxes increased $221,000 and $1.1 million, respectively, versus the comparable period in 2009. The increase in the provision was due to higher pre-tax net income, offset by a reduction in the Company’s valuation allowance of $90,000 related to the expiration of unrealized federal charitable contribution and capital loss carry-forwards. The effective tax rate was 23.8% and 29.1% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively. The effective tax rate was 9.8% and 55.2% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, respectively. The lower effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2009 was due to lower pre-tax net income and a non-taxable gain on bank-owned life insurance proceeds.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity is the ability to meet current and future financial obligations of a short-term nature. The Company’s primary sources of funds consist of deposit inflows, loan repayments and sales, maturities and sales of investment securities and FHLB and subordinated debt borrowings. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and securities are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows, mortgage prepayments and loan and security sales are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition.
The Company’s most liquid assets are cash and cash equivalents. The levels of these assets depend on the Company’s operating, financing, lending and investing activities during any given period. At September 30, 2010, cash and cash equivalents totaled $51.9 million. Interest-bearing deposits and federal funds sold totaled $40.1 million.
Securities classified as available for sale, which provide additional sources of liquidity, totaled $173.2 million at September 30, 2010. In addition, at September 30, 2010, the Company had a potential borrowing capacity of $181.5 million from the FHLB, which included overnight lines of credit of $10.0 million. On that date, the Company had FHLB advances outstanding of $114.2 million and no overnight advances outstanding. Additionally, the Company has the ability to access the Federal Reserve Bank’s Discount Window on a collateralized basis. The Company believes that its liquid assets combined with the available line from the FHLB provide adequate liquidity to meet its current financial obligations.
The Company’s primary investing activities are the origination of loans and the purchase of securities and loans. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company originated $82.5 million of loans and purchased $71.5 million of securities and $29.3 million of loans. For the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company originated $146.3 million of loans and purchased $95.1 million of securities and $40.9 million of loans.
Financing activities consist primarily of activity in deposit accounts and in Federal Home Loan Bank advances. The Company utilizes Federal Home Loan Bank advances and deposits to fund asset growth. The Company experienced a net increase in total deposits, offset by a decrease in mortgagors’ and investors’ escrow accounts, of $13.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and a net increase in total deposits, including mortgagors’ and investors’ escrow accounts, of $38.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, respectively. Certificates of deposit due within one year of September 30, 2010 totaled $158.6 million, or 23.5%, of total deposits. Deposit flows are affected by the overall level of interest rates, the interest rates and products offered by the Company and its local competitors and other factors. The Company generally manages the pricing of its deposits to be competitive and to increase core deposits and commercial banking relationships. Occasionally, the Company offers promotional rates on

certain deposit products to attract deposits. The Company experienced a net decrease of $1.9 million in Federal Home Loan Bank advances for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and $23.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2009.
In February 2008, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the repurchase of up to 596,000 shares of the Company’s outstanding stock. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company repurchased 11,706 shares of the Company’s common stock, which represents the shares withheld from employees to satisfy tax withholding obligations, at a cost of $74,000. At September 30, 2010, the remaining shares that may be repurchased under this plan totaled 499,336.Additional discussion about the Company’s liquidity and capital resources is contained in Item 7 in the Company’s 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
SI Financial Group, Inc. is a separate legal entity from the Bank and must provide for its own liquidity. In addition to its operating expenses, SI Financial Group is responsible for paying any dividends declared to its shareholders and making payments on its subordinated debentures. SI Financial Group also has repurchased shares of its common stock. SI Financial Group’s primary sources of funds are interest and dividends on securities and dividends received from the Bank. The amount of dividends that the Bank may declare and pay to SI Financial Group in any calendar year, without the receipt of prior approval from the OTS but with prior notice to the OTS, cannot exceed net income for that year to date plus retained net income (as defined) for the preceding two calendar years. At September 30, 2010, SI Financial Group had cash and cash equivalents of $4.5 million.
Payments Due Under Contractual Obligations
Information relating to payments due under contractual obligations is presented in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009. There were no material changes in the Company’s payments due under contractual obligations between December 31, 2009 and September 30, 2010.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
In the normal course of operations, the Company engages in a variety of financial transactions that, in accordance with GAAP, are not recorded on its financial statements. These transactions involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit, interest rate and liquidity risk. Such transactions are used primarily to manage customers’ requests for funding and take the form of loan commitments, lines of credit and letters of credit.
The contractual amount of commitments to extend credit represent the amounts of potential accounting loss should the contract be fully drawn upon, the customer defaults and the value of any existing collateral becomes worthless. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. Financial instruments whose contract amounts represent credit risk at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 are as follows:

(3) | Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. |
The Bank is a limited partner in two Small Business Investment Corporations (“SBIC”). At September 30, 2010, the Bank’s remaining off-balance sheet commitment for the capital investment in the SBICs was $757,000. The Bank recognized write-downs of $12,000 and $383,000 on its investment in the SBICs during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
At September 30, 2010, the Bank had outstanding commitments to purchase $4.4 million in guaranteed USDA and SBA loans.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, with the exception of the aforementioned commitments, the Company did not engage in any additional off-balance sheet transactions reasonably likely to have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.See Notes 6 and 12 to the consolidated financial statements contained in the Company’s 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Not applicable as the Company is a smaller reporting company.
Item 4(T). Controls and Procedures.
The Company’s management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”). Based upon their evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective for ensuring that the information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act with the Securities and Exchange Commission (1) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (2) is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. No changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
The Company is not involved in any pending legal proceedings believed by management to be material to the Company’s financial condition or results of operations. Periodically, there have been various claims and lawsuits against the Bank, such as claims to enforce liens, condemnation proceedings on properties in which the Bank holds a security interest, claims involving the making and servicing of real property loans and other issues incident to the Bank’s business. Management believes that these legal proceedings would not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
There are no material changes from the risk factors set forth under Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 and under Part II, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2010,

which could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are not the only risks that the Company faces. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to the Company or that the Company currently deems to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition and/or operating results.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
The Company did not repurchase equity securities during the three months ended September 30, 2010. On February 20, 2008, the Company announced that the Board of Directors had approved a stock repurchase program authorizing the Company to repurchase up to 596,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The maximum number of shares that may yet be purchased under the Company’s stock repurchase program are 499,336. The repurchase program will continue until it is completed or terminated by the Company’s Board of Directors.
