Introductory Note
The Audit Committee of our Board of Directors recently completed an investigation focused on the manner in which the Company accounted for share-based payment awards pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R, “Share-Based Payments.” Upon completion of the investigation, the Company concluded that it was necessary to restate certain financial data for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006 in order to correct a calculation error in the amount of stock-based compensation expense attributable to stock option awards to employees that vested during the second quarter ended June 30, 2006. The error did not affect the financial statements for any prior periods.
The Company today is filing an amended Form 10-QSB to restate its financial results with respect to the quarterly period ended June 30, 2006. Generally, no attempt has been made in this Form 10-QSB/A to modify or update other disclosures presented in the original report on Form 10-QSB except as required to reflect the effects of the restatement. This Form 10-QSB/A generally does not reflect events occurring after the filing of the original Form 10-QSB or modify or update those disclosures affected by subsequent events. Information not affected by the restatement is unchanged and reflects the disclosures made at the time of the original filing of the Form 10-QSB. Accordingly, this Form 10-QSB/A should be read in conjunction with our filings made with the Securities and Exchange Commission subsequent to the filing of the original Form 10-QSB, including any amendments to those filings. The following items have been amended as a result of the restatement:
· | Part I, Item 1 Financial Information, has been revised to reflect the restatement; |
· | Part I, Item 2, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, has been revised to reflect the restatement; and |
· | Part I, Item 3, Controls and Procedures, has been revised to reflect the restatement. |
Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have also reissued their certifications required by Section 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.
As a result of the restatement, the Company's net loss has increased, by $683,455, or $0.30 per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and for the six months ended June 30, 2006. None of the adjustments resulting from the restatement has any impact on cash balances for any period. However, the Company's unaudited consolidated statement of cash flows has been restated to reflect the restated net loss and adjustments. There were no other changes to the cash flows statement. The Company's unaudited consolidated balance sheet has been restated to reflect the restated new loss and the corresponding adjustment to the Company's additional paid-in capital account.

PACIFIC COAST NATIONAL BANCORP
CONDENSED NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 - Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the amounts of Pacific Coast National Bancorp (the “Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Pacific Coast National Bank (the “Bank”). All significant inter-company accounts have been eliminated on consolidation. The Bank opened for business on May 16, 2005. Prior to May 16, 2005, the Company was a “Development-Stage Company” as defined by Statement on Financial Standards 7. The cumulative loss from operations through the Company’s development period (July 2, 2003 to May 16, 2005) was $2.2 million.
The accounting principles followed by the Company and the methods of applying these principles conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and with general practices within the banking industry. In preparing financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Material estimates common to the banking industry that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term include, but are not limited to, the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of real estate acquired in connection with or in lieu of foreclosure on loans, and valuation allowances associated with deferred tax assets, the recognition of which are based on future taxable income.
The consolidated interim financial statements included in this report are unaudited but reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for the period ended June 30, 2006, are not necessarily indicative of the results of a full year’s operations. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2005.
Note 2 - Loss Per Share
Loss per common share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The effects of potential common shares outstanding during the period would be included in diluted loss per share; however, the effect of potential shares would be antidilutive during all periods presented.
Note 3 - Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock options and warrants issued to non-employees in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods and Services.”
The Company accounts for stock-based employee compensation as prescribed by SFAS No. 123 (Revised), Share-Based Payment. This standard revises SFAS No. 123, APB Opinion No. 25 and related accounting interpretations, and eliminates the use of the intrinsic value method for employee stock-based compensation. SFAS No. 123 (R) requires compensation costs related to share-based payment transactions to be recognized in the financial statements over the period that an employee provides service in exchange for the award. Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company used the intrinsic value method of APB Opinion No. 25 to value share-based options granted to employees and board members. The new standard requires the expensing of all share-based compensation, including options, using the fair value-based method. The effective date of this standard for the Company was January 1, 2006.
During 2005 and 2006, the Company granted options to employees from its 2005 Stock Incentive Plan that received shareholder approval on April 17, 2006. The Company began to record compensation expense in accordance with SFAS 123 (Revised) in the second quarter of 2006. The Company is unable to estimate the impact of this Statement on its financial condition and results of operations as the decision to grant option awards is made annually on a case-by-case basis. The actual amount of expense will be based on the fair value of the Company’s stock when the Plan was approved and will be increased for any additional grants that are made in the future. However, based on the current fair value of the Company’s stock, a risk-free rate between 3.95% and 5.05%, expected volatility of 25%, and an expected life of between 6.5 and 8.5 years, the amount of compensation expense in 2006 related to options granted to date is estimated to be approximately $1.5 million for 2006, $750 thousand for 2007, and $200 thousand for 2008.

Note 4 - Current Accounting Pronouncements
As discussed in the preceding note, SFAS No.123 (R) became effective January 1, 2006 and has been fully implemented by the Company.
In March 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 156, “Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140.” The statement amends SFAS No. 140 by (1) requiring the separate accounting for servicing assets and servicing liabilities, which arise from the sale of financial assets; (2) requiring all separately recognized serving assets and servicing liabilities to be initially measured at fair value, if practicable; and (3) permitting an entity to choose between an amortization method or a fair value method for subsequent measurement for each class of separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. The Company must adopt the statement no later than January 1, 2007. Management does not expect that the adoption of this new standard will have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”), “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes.” This interpretation applies to all tax positions accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” FIN 48 clarifies the application of SFAS No. 109 by defining the criteria that an individual tax position must meet in order for the position to be recognized within the financial statements and provides guidance on measurement, derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition for tax positions. The Company must adopt the interpretation by January 1, 2007. Management does not expect that the adoption of this new interpretation will have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis presents the Company’s consolidated financial condition as of June 30, 2006 and results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005. The discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes related thereto which appear elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB.
This report contains certain statements that are forward-looking within the meaning of section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Actual outcomes and results may differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, the forward-looking statements. These statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “predict,” “potential,” “believe,” “will likely result,” “expect,” “will continue,” “anticipate,” “seek,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “projection,” “would” and “outlook,” and other similar expressions or future or conditional verbs. Readers of this annual report should not rely solely on the forward-looking statements and should consider all uncertainties and risks throughout this report. The statements are representative only as of the date they are made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement.
These forward-looking statements, implicitly and explicitly, include the assumptions underlying the statements and other information with respect to the Company’s beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, expectations, anticipations, estimates, financial condition, results of operations, future performance and business, including management’s expectations and estimates with respect to revenues, expenses, return on equity, return on assets, efficiency ratio, asset quality and other financial data and capital and performance ratios.
Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, these statements involve risks and uncertainties that are subject to change based on various important factors, some of which are beyond the control of the Company and the Board. The following factors, among others, could cause the Company’s results or financial performance to differ materially from its goals, plans, objectives, intentions, expectations and other forward-looking statements:
· | the loss of senior management or operating personnel and the potential inability to hire qualified personnel at reasonable compensation levels; |
8
· | the failure of assumptions underlying the establishment of and provisions made to the allowance for credit losses; |
· | changes in various monetary and fiscal policies and regulations, including those determined by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (FRB), the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC); |
· | changes in general economic conditions and economic conditions in the geographic regions and industries in which the Bank operates which may affect, among other things, the level of nonperforming assets, charge-offs and provision expense; |
· | adverse changes in the local real estate market, which is where most of the Bank’s loans are concentrated, the substantial majority of which have real estate as collateral; |
· | changes in the availability of funds resulting in increased costs or reduced liquidity; |
· | geopolitical conditions, including acts or threats of terrorism, actions taken by the United States or other governments in response to acts or threats of terrorism and/or military conflicts which could impact business and economics in the United States and abroad; |
· | changes in market rates and prices which may adversely impact the value of financial products including securities, loans, deposits, debt and derivative financial instruments and other similar financial instruments; |
· | changes in the interest rate environment, which may reduce interest margins and impact funding sources; |
· | increased asset levels and changes in the composition of assets and the resulting impact on the capital levels and regulatory capital ratios of the Company or the Bank; |
· | competition with other banks, thrifts, credit unions and other nonbank financial institutions and the willingness of users to substitute competitors’ products and services for the products and services offered by the Bank; |
· | the ability to develop and introduce new banking-related products, services and enhancements and gain market acceptance of such products; |
· | the ability to grow the Bank’s core businesses; |
· | decisions to change or adopt new business strategies; |
· | changes in tax laws, rules and regulations as well as Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and other governmental agencies’ interpretations thereof; |
· | technological changes; |
· | changes in consumer spending and savings habits; and |
· | management’s ability to manage these and other risks. |
These factors and the risk factors referred to in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2005 could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by the Company, and you should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made and the Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement or statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which such statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict which will arise. In addition, management cannot assess the impact of each factor on business of the Company or the Bank or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

Critical Accounting Policies
Our accounting policies are integral to understanding the results reported. In preparing its consolidated financial statements, the Company is required to make judgments and estimates that may have a significant impact upon its financial results. Certain accounting policies require the Company to make significant estimates and assumptions, which have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities, and are considered critical accounting policies. The estimates and assumptions used are based on the historical experiences and other factors, which are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates and assumptions, which could have a material impact on the carrying value of assets and liabilities at the balance sheet dates and results of operations for the reporting periods. For example, the Company’s determination of the adequacy of its allowance for loan losses is particularly susceptible to management’s judgment and estimates. The following is a brief description of the Company’s current accounting policies involving significant management valuation judgments.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses represents management’s best estimate of losses inherent in the existing loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses is increased by the provision for loan losses charged to expense and reduced by loans charged off, net of recoveries. The allowance for loan losses is determined based on management’s assessment of several factors: reviews and evaluation of individual loans, changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions and the related impact on specific borrowers and industry groups, historical loan loss experiences and the levels of classified and nonperforming loans.
Loans are considered impaired if, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The measurement of impaired loans is generally based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the historical effective interest rate stipulated in the loan agreement, except that all collateral-dependent loans are measured for impairment based on the fair value of the collateral. In measuring the fair value of the collateral, management uses assumptions and methodologies consistent with those that would be utilized by unrelated third parties.
Changes in the financial condition of individual borrowers, in economic conditions, in historical loss experience and in the condition of the various markets in which collateral may be sold may all affect the required level of the allowance for loan losses and the associated provision for loan losses.
Deferred Tax Assets
Management estimates the need for a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets by comparing the total recorded to the amount available for carry back and the amount that will be utilized by estimated future earnings.

In 2005, the Company completed an initial public offering of its common stock, issuing 2,280,000 shares at a price of $10.00 per share. The net proceeds received from the offering were approximately $20.5 million. The Bank opened for business on May 16, 2005.
The following discussion focuses on the Company’s financial condition as of June 30, 2006 and results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005. The Company’s principal operations for this time period during 2006 consisted primarily of the operations of Pacific Coast National Bank. The Company’s principal operations for this time period during 2005 included four and one half months of operations related to raising capital and organizing the Bank, and one and one half months of Bank operations. Comparisons made here will relate to bank operations and not the organizational phase of the Company.

Results of Operations
Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin
Net interest income is the difference between interest income, principally from loan, lease and investment securities portfolios, and interest expense, principally on customer deposits and borrowings. Net interest income is our principal source of earnings. Changes in net interest income result from changes in volume, spread and margin. Volume refers to the average dollar level of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Spread refers to the difference between the average yield on interest-earning assets and the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities. Margin refers to net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets, and is influenced by the level and relative mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.
Net interest income was $433 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2006 compared to $87 thousand for the same time period in 2005. The Company earned 6.19% on its average interest-earning assets of $35.6 million for the second quarter of 2006 compared to 3.71% on $19.3 million in average earning assets for the second quarter of 2005. This growth in earning assets accounted for the increase in interest income from $89 thousand in 2005 to $550 thousand in 2006. During the second quarter of 2006, slightly less than 50% of the earning assets were loans, earning 8.09%, compared to the second quarter of 2005 when 5% of the average earning assets was loans, with a yield of 7.25%. This year over year migration from fed funds sold to loans accounted for the improvement in the earning asset yield.
Total loan income, including loan fees of $10 thousand, was $343 thousand for the second quarter of 2006 compared to $9 thousand in total loan income, and no loan fees, in the second quarter of 2005.
Interest-bearing liabilities, consisting entirely of deposits, averaged $14.3 million with an average yield of 3.28% during the second quarter of 2006, compared with $1.3 million in interest-bearing deposits at a yield of 1.55% for the same period in 2005. The cost of funds has increased to 3.28% for this time period in 2006 from 1.55% in 2005, and to $117 thousand from $2 thousand. The increase in yield on deposit products is the result of an increase in market rates and the Bank’s ability to deploy these funds in higher-yielding assets. Average non-interest bearing demand accounts increased as a percentage of average total deposits from 20% in the second quarter of 2005 to 29% in the second quarter of 2006.

The average balances shown for 2005 were calculated using only the days that the Bank had been open for business. Therefore, the averages for three and six months ended June 30, 2005, are the same. Calculating the averages using the number of days in the quarter, while mathematically correct, would not produce a meaningful result.
Changes in volume and changes in interest rates affect the Company’s interest income and interest expense. The effect of these changes is typically displayed in a volume, mix and rate analysis table which compares the changes in income and expense over periods. Since the Company has a limited operating history, comparisons are not yet meaningful.
Provision for Loan Losses
A provision for loan losses is determined that is considered sufficient to maintain an allowance to absorb probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date. For additional information concerning this determination, see the section of this discussion and analysis captioned “Allowance for Loan Losses.”
In the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, the provision for loan and lease losses was $50 thousand and $104 thousand respectively. Because the Bank has no loss history on which to build assumptions for future loan losses, a national bank peer group average was used. The increased provision for the second quarter of 2006 is the result of using the peer group average and is not the result of identified or suspected deterioration in the loan portfolio. There were no charge-offs or non-performing loans during the first half of 2006.
13
Noninterest Income
The non-interest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2006, was $21 thousand, including $5 thousand gain on sale of the guaranteed portion of SBA loans. For the six months ended June 30, 2006, noninterest income was $110 thousand including $87 thousand on gain on sale of SBA loans. Fees on deposit accounts and merchant discount income make up the remainder of the noninterest income. For the period ended June 30, 2005, $200 in fee income was collected in service charges.
Noninterest Expense
Total noninterest expense was $2.0 million in the second quarter of 2006, and $3.0 million for the first half of 2006. For the same periods in 2005, noninterest expense was $1.1 million and $1.6 million respectively. Of that expense, $781 thousand and $1.2 million are attributable to pre-opening costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005. Therefore comparisons of the two years’ noninterest expenses are not meaningful.
The major components of the 2006 expense are discussed below. As the Bank grows, management is committed to controlling costs and expects to moderate noninterest expenses relative to revenue growth.
Salaries and employee benefits totaled $1.4 million for the second quarter, and $2.0 million for the first half of 2006. Included in this category for the second quarter of 2006 is $933 thousand representing a portion of the expense for the employee stock options granted from May 16, 2005, through June 30, 2006. SFAS No. 123 (R) requires compensation costs related to share-based payment transactions to be recognized in the financial statements over the period that an employee provides service in exchange for the award.
Employee benefit costs including employer taxes and group insurance accounted for approximately 3% and 10% of this expense in the same time periods. The decrease in the ratio for the three months ended June 30, 2006, is attributable to the increase in employee compensation expense due to the amortization of the fair value of the stock options. The Bank employed 29 full-time equivalent (FTE) employees as of June 30, 2006 compared to 15 FTE as of June 30, 2005. The volume of assets per employee as of the end of the second quarter of 2006 was $1,476,000 compared to $1,485,000 at the end of June 2005.
Occupancy and equipment expenses totaled $193 thousand and $373 thousand for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006, attributable primarily to lease costs of $80 thousand and $158 thousand, and depreciation expense of fixed asset and tenant improvement of $78 thousand and $154 thousand respectively.
Professional fees of $47 thousand for the second quarter of 2006 were primarily attributable to legal fees of $25 thousand and expenses related to the preparation of the 10-KSB and the annual shareholders’ meeting of $14 thousand. For the first six months of 2006, professional fees totaled $104 thousand, consisting of $40 thousand in legal fees, $30 thousand in accounting and audit fees, $12 thousand in compliance fees, and $20 thousand in expenses related to the preparation of the 10-KSB and the annual shareholders’ meeting.
Data processing expense was $113 thousand for the second quarter of 2006, attributable primarily to costs associated with the core processing system of $35 thousand, network maintenance and security of $28 thousand, software amortization of $15 thousand, and website maintenance of $15 thousand. For the first half of 2006, data processing expense was $212 thousand, attributable primarily to costs associated with the core processing system of $77 thousand, network maintenance and security of $48 thousand, software amortization of $31 thousand, and website maintenance of $26 thousand. Most of these expenses are routine in nature and are expected to be fairly consistent. Network administration and security expense can fluctuate as new employees and new products are added.
Office expenses of $94 thousand for the second quarter of 2006 included auto and mileage expense of $17 thousand; office supplies of $16 thousand; fidelity bond and other insurance premiums of $12 thousand; workers compensation insurance premiums of $9 thousand; armored car and courier expense of $9 thousand; waived check printing charges of $8; director expenses primarily related to training costs of $9 thousand; regulatory assessments of $6 thousand; and $4 thousand in expenses related to the directors’ stock options per SFAS No. 123 (R). For the six months ended June 30, 2006, these same expenses were $185 thousand consisting of auto and mileage expense of $39 thousand; office supplies of $30 thousand; fidelity bond and other insurance premiums of $22 thousand; workers compensation insurance premiums of $30 thousand; armored car and courier expense of $18 thousand; waived check printing charges of $12 thousand; and regulatory assessments of $12 thousand.
14
Promotional expenses were $68 thousand for the second quarter of 2006. This included expenses related to a major campaign for to the Bank’s SBA lending group, direct mail campaigns to local businesses, and sponsorship of key community events. For the six months ended June 30, 2006, promotional expenses were $105 thousand.
Other expenses for the second quarter of 2006 of $43 thousand consisted primarily of expenses related to the preparation, review, and printing of the proxy and shareholders’ notification of the annual meeting of $26 thousand; director expenses primarily related to training costs of $10 thousand; $6 thousand in expenses related to the directors’ stock options; and the provision for contingent liabilities of $2 thousand. For the six months ended June 30, 2006, other expenses totaled $57 thousand which included $7 thousand for contingent liabilities, $7 thousand in loan-related costs, and $26 thousand related to the annual meeting notification.
Income Taxes
$2 thousand in state taxes were paid during the second quarter of 2006. No federal tax expense or federal or state tax benefit has been recorded for the quarter ended June 30, 2006 based upon net operating losses. The Company will begin to recognize income tax benefit at the time it becomes profitable.
Financial Condition as of June 30, 2006
Total assets as of June 30, 2006, were $42.8 million, consisting primarily of cash and investments of $21.5 million and net loans of $19.4 million. Total deposits were $25.2 million and shareholder’s equity was $17.4 million.
Short-Term Investments and Interest-bearing Deposits in Other Financial Institutions
At June 30, 2006, the Bank had $12.1 million in federal funds (“fed funds”) sold. Federal funds sold allow the Bank to meet liquidity requirements and provide temporary holdings until the funds can be otherwise deployed or invested. At December 31, 2005, the Bank had an interest-bearing deposit of $2 million with Union Bank of California pledged as collateral for a financial letter of credit issued on behalf of one of the Bank’s customers. This deposit had a term of 180 days and a rate of 4%. This time deposit matured on May 22, 2006, and was moved into the Bank’s fed funds investment. Also at December 31, 2005, the holding company had a time deposit of $750 thousand at The Independent BankersBank. This deposit matured on January 25, 2006 and was not renewed.
Investment Securities
The investment portfolio serves primarily as a source of interest income and, secondarily, as a source of liquidity and a management tool for the Bank’s interest rate sensitivity. The investment portfolio is managed according to a written investment policy established by the Bank’s Board of Directors and implemented by the Investment/Asset-Liability Committee.
At June 30, 2006, the Bank’s investment securities consisted of $8.0 million in U.S. government-sponsored agencies, with a book value of $8 million, an estimated fair value of $8.0 million and a weighted average yield of 4.4%, and $514 thousand in Federal Reserve Bank Stock, having a book value of $514 thousand, an estimate fair value of $514 thousand, and a weighted average yield of 6.0%. At June 30, 2006, none of these investment securities were pledged as collateral for any purpose.

Loan Portfolio
The Bank’s primary source of income is interest on loans. The following table presents the composition of the loan portfolio by category as of the dates indicated:
June 30, 2006 | December 31, 2005 | ||||||
Real estate | $ | 13,697,075 | $ | 7,791,112 | |||
Commercial | 5,967,659 | 2,483,127 | |||||
Consumer | 78,283 | 72,259 | |||||
Gross Loans | 19,743,017 | 10,346,498 | |||||
Deferred loan fees | ( 84,730 | ) | ( 29,168 | ) | |||
Allowance for loan losses | ( 241,010 | ) | ( 87,208 | ) | |||
Net Loans | $ | 19,417,277 | $ | 10,230,122 |
Net loans as a percentage of total assets were 45.3% as of June 30, 2006, and 32.8% as of December 31, 2005.
The real estate loan portfolio is comprised of short-term mortgage loans secured typically by commercial properties, occupied by the borrower, have terms of three to seven years with both fixed and floating rates, and revolving lines of credit granted to consumers, secured by equity in residential properties. It is anticipated that the Bank’s real estate loan portfolio will include construction loans in the future. Construction loans consist primarily of single-family residential properties, have a term of less than one year and have floating rates and commitment fees. Construction loans are typically made to builders that have an established record of successful project completion and loan repayment. At June 30, 2006, the Bank held $12.8 million in commercial real estate loans outstanding, representing 65.2% of gross loans receivable, with undisbursed commitments of $1.4 million, and $837 thousand in revolving lines secured by 1-4 family residences representing 4.2% of gross loans receivable with undisbursed commitments of $1.5 million.
The commercial loan portfolio is comprised of lines of credit for working capital and term loans to finance equipment and other business assets. The lines of credit typically are limited to a percentage of the value of the assets securing the line. Lines of credit and term loans typically are reviewed annually and can be supported by accounts receivable, inventory, equipment and other assets of the client’s businesses. At June 30, 2006, the Bank held $6.0 million in commercial loans outstanding, representing 30.2% of gross loans receivable, and undisbursed commitments of $2.7 million.
16
The consumer loan portfolio consists of personal lines of credit and loans to acquire personal assets such as automobiles and boats. The lines of credit generally have terms of one year and the term loans generally have terms of three to five years. The lines of credit typically have floating rates. At June 30, 2006, consumer loans totaled $78 thousand, representing 0.4% of gross loans receivable and undisbursed commitments of $33 thousand.
Loan concentrations are considered to exist when there are amounts loaned to a multiple number of borrowers engaged in similar activities that would cause them to be similarly impacted by economic or other conditions. The Bank has established select concentrations percentages within the loan portfolio. It also includes families of credit considered of either higher risk or worthy of further review as part of its concentration reporting. While the framework has been set in place to evaluate the Bank’s potential risk in its portfolio, the overall concentration results are not yet meaningful.
Management may renew loans at maturity when requested by a customer whose financial strength appears to support such a renewal or when such a renewal appears to be in the best interest of the Bank. The Bank requires payment of accrued interest in such instances and may adjust the rate of interest, require a principal reduction, or modify other terms of the loan at the time of renewal. Loan terms vary according to loan type. The following table shows the maturity distribution of loans and leases as of June 30, 2006:

Nonperforming Loans, Leases and Assets
Nonperforming assets consist of loans and leases on nonaccrual status, loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing interest, loans that have been restructured resulting in a reduction or deferral of interest or principal, OREO, and other repossessed assets. As of June 30, 2006, there were no nonperforming assets.
A potential problem loan is defined as a loan where information about possible credit problems of the borrower is known, causing management to have serious doubts as to the ability of the borrower to comply with the present loan payment terms and which may result in the inclusion of such loan in one of the nonperforming asset categories. An internally classified loan list is maintained that helps management assess the overall quality of the loan portfolio and the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. Loans classified as “special mention” are those that contain a weakness that, if left unattended, could develop into a problem affecting the ultimate collectibility of the loan. Loans classified as “substandard” are those loans with clear and defined weaknesses, such as highly leveraged positions, unfavorable financial ratios, uncertain repayment resources or poor financial condition, which may jeopardize recoverability of the loan. Loans classified as “doubtful” are those loans that have characteristics similar to substandard loans, but also have an increased risk that loss may occur or at least a portion of the loan may require a charge-off if liquidated at present. Although loans classified as substandard do not duplicate loans classified as doubtful, both substandard and doubtful loans may include some loans that are past due at least 90 days, are on nonaccrual status or have been restructured. Loans classified as “loss” are those loans that are in the process of being charged-off. The Bank had no loans classified in these categories at June 30, 2006.
17
Allowance for Loan Losses
Implicit in the Bank’s lending activities is the fact that loan losses will be experienced and that the risk of loss will vary with the type of loan being made and the creditworthiness of the borrower over the term of the loan. To reflect the currently perceived risk of loss associated with the loan portfolio, additions are made to the allowance for loan losses in the form of direct charges against income to ensure that the allowance is available to absorb possible loan losses. The factors that influence the amount include, among others, the remaining collateral and/or financial condition of the borrowers, historical loan loss, changes in the size and composition of the loan portfolio, and general economic conditions.
The amount of the allowance equals the cumulative total of the provisions made from time to time, reduced by loan charge-offs and increased by recoveries of loans previously charged-off. Beginning with the second quarter of 2006, the adequacy of the Bank’s allowance for loan losses has been determined through a comparison to the Bank’s peer group as defined by the OCC. The Bank will continue to maintain an equivalent allowance until management has adequate historical data upon which to base a different level. The peer group currently maintains an average allowance for loan losses of approximately 1.22% of the outstanding principal. The Bank’s allowance was $241 thousand, or 1.22% of outstanding principal as of June 30, 2006. The Bank has not incurred any loan losses as of June 30, 2006.
The following table sets forth information concerning the allocation of the allowance for loan losses, which is maintained on the Bank’s loan portfolio, by loan category at June 30, 2006.
Amount | Percentage of loans in each category to total loans | Percentage of allowance at June 30, 2006 | Percentage of reserves to net loans by category | ||||||||||
Real estate | $ | 95,095 | 69.4 | % | 39.5 | % | 0.7 | % | |||||
Commercial | 45,172 | 30.2 | % | 18.7 | % | 0.8 | % | ||||||
Consumer | 2,023 | 0.4 | % | 0.8 | % | 2.6 | % | ||||||

Total Allowance for Loan Losses | $ | 241,010 | 100.0 | % | 100.0 | % | 1.22 | % |
In addition, a separate allowance for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures is maintained for the undisbursed portion of approved loans. Although the loss exposure to the Bank is reduced because the funds have not been released to the borrower, under certain circumstances the Bank may be required to continue to disburse funds on a troubled credit. As of June 30, 2006, this allowance was $21 thousand.
Credit and loan decisions are made by management and the Board of Directors in conformity with loan policies established by the board of directors. The Bank’s practice is to charge-off any loan or portion of a loan when the loan is determined by management to be uncollectible due to the borrower’s failure to meet repayment terms, the borrower’s deteriorating or deteriorated financial condition, the depreciation of the underlying collateral, the loan’s classification as a loss by regulatory examiners, or other reasons.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Loan Commitments
In the ordinary course of business, the Bank enters into various off-balance sheet commitments and other arrangements to extend credit that are not reflected in the consolidated balance sheets of the Company. The business purpose of these off-balance sheet commitments is the routine extension of credit. As of June 30, 2006, commitments to extend credit included approximately $10 thousand for letters of credit, $2.7 million for revolving lines of credit arrangements including $1.5 million in real-estate secured lines, and $2.9 million in unused commitments for commercial and real estate secured loans. The Bank faces the risk of deteriorating credit quality of borrowers to whom a commitment to extend credit has been made; however, no significant credit losses are expected from these commitments and arrangements.
Borrowings
The Company has access to a variety of borrowing sources including federal funds purchased. As of June 30, 2006, there were no borrowings outstanding.

Capital Resources and Capital Adequacy Requirements
Risk-based capital guidelines are designed to make regulatory capital requirements more sensitive to differences in risk profiles among banks, to account for off-balance sheet exposure, and to minimize disincentives for holding liquid assets. Under the regulations, assets and off-balance sheet items are assigned to broad risk categories, each with appropriate weights. The resulting capital ratios represent capital as a percentage of total risk weighted assets and off-balance sheet items. Under the prompt corrective action regulations, to be adequately capitalized a bank must maintain minimum ratios of total capital to risk-weighted assets of 8.00%, Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 4.00%, and Tier 1 capital to total assets of 4.00%. Failure to meet these capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s financial statements.
As of June 30, 2006, the Bank was categorized as well-capitalized. A well-capitalized institution must maintain a minimum ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 10.00%, a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk weighted assets of at least 6.00%, and a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to total assets of at least 5.00% and must not be subject to any written order, agreement, or directive requiring it to meet or maintain a specific capital level.
The following table sets forth the Bank’s capital ratios as of the dates specified:

Liquidity Management
At June 30, 2006, the Company (excluding the Bank) had approximately $922 thousand in cash. These funds can be used for Company operations, investment and for later infusion into the Bank and other corporate activities. The primary source of liquidity for the Company will be dividends paid by the Bank. The Bank is currently restricted from paying dividends without regulatory approval that will not be granted until the accumulated deficit has been eliminated.
The Bank’s liquidity is monitored by its staff, the Investment/Asset-Liability Committee and the Board of Directors, who review historical funding requirements, current liquidity position, sources and stability of funding, marketability of assets, options for attracting additional funds, and anticipated future funding needs, including the level of unfunded commitments.
The Bank’s primary sources of funds is retail and commercial deposits, loan and securities repayments, other short-term borrowings, and other funds provided by operations. While scheduled loan repayments and maturing investments are relatively predictable, deposit flows and early loan prepayments are more influenced by interest rates, general economic conditions, and competition. The Bank maintains investments in liquid assets based upon management’s assessment of (1) the need for funds, (2) expected deposit flows, (3) yields available on short-term liquid assets, and (4) objectives of the asset/liability management program.
20
As loan demand increases, greater pressure will be exerted on the Bank’s liquidity. However, it is management’s intention to maintain a conservative loan to deposit ratio in the range of 80% - 85% over time. Given this goal, the Bank will not aggressively pursue lending opportunities if sufficient funding sources (i.e., deposits, Fed Funds, etc.) are not available, nor will the Bank seek to attract transient volatile, non-local deposits with above market interest rates. As of June 30, 2006, the loan to deposit ratio was 77%.
The Bank had cash and cash equivalents of $13.5 million, or 31% of total Bank assets, at June 30, 2006. Management feels that the Bank has adequate liquidity to meet anticipated future funding needs.
The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal and state banking agencies, which could affect its ability to pay dividends to the Company. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material adverse effect on our financial statements. The minimum ratios required for the Bank to be considered “well capitalized” for regulatory purposes, and therefore eligible to consider the payment of dividends to the Company, will be 10% total capital to risk weighted assets, 6% tier 1 capital to risk weighted assets and 5% tier 1 capital to average assets. At June 30, 2006, the Bank was considered “well capitalized” by regulatory standards.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risks
Interest rate risk is the most significant market risk affecting the Bank. Other types of market risk, such as foreign currency risk and commodity price risk, do not arise in the normal course of the Bank’s business activities. Interest rate risk can be defined as the exposure to a movement in interest rates that could have an adverse effect on the net interest income or the market value of the Bank’s financial instruments. The ongoing monitoring and management of this risk is an important component of the asset and liability management process, which is governed by policies established by the Company’s Board of Directors and carried out by the Bank’s Investment/Asset-liability Committee. The Investment/Asset-liability Committee’s objectives are to manage the exposure to interest rate risk over both the one year planning cycle and the longer term strategic horizon and, at the same time, to provide a stable and steadily increasing flow of net interest income.
The primary measurement of interest rate risk is earnings at risk, which is determined through computerized simulation modeling. The primary simulation model assumes a static balance sheet, using the balances, rates, maturities and repricing characteristics of all of the Bank’s existing assets and liabilities. Net interest income is computed by the model assuming market rates remaining unchanged and comparing those results to other interest rate scenarios with changes in the magnitude, timing and relationship between various interest rates. At June 30, 2006, an analysis was performed using the ALXpert model provided through ALX Consulting, Inc. and utilizing the Bank’s quarterly Call Report data. The table below shows the impact of rising and declining interest rate simulations in 100 basis point increments over a 12-month period. Changes in net interest income in the rising and declining rate scenarios are measured against the current net interest income. The changes in equity capital represent the changes in the present value of the balance sheet without regards to business continuity, otherwise known as “liquidation value”. Because the Bank is asset-sensitive, the net interest margin improves as rates rise and declines as rates decline.

The following table sets forth, on a stand-alone basis, the Bank’s amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities outstanding at June 30, 2006, which are anticipated, based upon certain assumptions, to reprice or mature in each of the future time periods shown. The projected repricing of assets and liabilities anticipates prepayments and scheduled rate adjustments, as well as contractual maturities under an interest rate unchanged scenario within the selected time intervals. While it is believed that such assumptions are reasonable, there can be no assurance that assumed repricing rates will approximate actual future deposit activity.

Certain shortcomings are inherent in the method of analysis presented in the gap table. For example, although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or periods of repricing, they may react in different degrees to changes in market interest rates. Additionally, certain assets, such as adjustable-rate loans, have features that restrict changes in interest rates, both on a short-term basis and over the life of the asset. More importantly, changes in interest rates, prepayments and early withdrawal levels may deviate significantly from those assumed in the calculations in the table. As a result of these shortcomings, the Bank will focus more on earnings at risk simulation modeling than on gap analysis. Even though the gap analysis reflects a ratio of cumulative gap to total assets within acceptable limits, the earnings at risk simulation modeling is considered by management to be more informative in forecasting future income at risk.

Item 3. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports it files under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. Such controls include those designed to ensure that information for disclosure is communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
In connection with the restatement of the Company’s consolidated financial statements, and as a result of the material weakness described below, they have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are not effective as of June 30, 2006.
Material Weakness In Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
A material weakness is a control deficiency or a combination of control deficiencies that result in a more than remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected.
In connection with the Company's investigation of the circumstances giving rise to the restatement, the Company determined that the error resulted from an incorrect interpretation of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised), “Share-Based Payments”. In light of the restatement of the Company's consolidated financial statements, the Company has concluded that as of June 30, 2006 effective disclosure controls and procedures were not maintained over the amounts to be expensed attributable to employee stock options in its consolidated statements of operations. Accordingly, management determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness. A material weakness is a control deficiency, or a combination of control deficiencies, that result in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected.
As of the current date of this filing, the company has fully remediated this material weakness. The Company will monitor all new accounting pronouncements and make a determination whether sufficient expertise exists within the Company to evaluate and apply the standards set forth in such new accounting pronouncements. In the event that management determines that additional resources are necessary to evaluate the impact of the new accounting pronouncements on the Company's financial statements, management will engage a qualified accounting firm to assist management in the implementation of the new accounting pronouncements.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes made in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.
Limitations Inherent in all Controls
The Company’s management, including the CEO and CFO, recognize that the disclosure controls and internal controls (discussed above) cannot prevent all errors or all attempts at fraud. Any controls system, no matter how well crafted and operated, can only provide reasonable, and not absolute, assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Because of the inherent limitations in any control system, no evaluation or implementation of a control system can provide complete assurance that all control issues and all possible instances of fraud have been or will be detected.
