NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
Note 1 - Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Virginia Savings Bancorp, Inc. (“the Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or the entire year ending December 31, 2009. The unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto presented herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in the Company’s Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.
Effective April 1, 2009, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 855 (formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 165,Subsequent Events). ASC 855 establishes general standards for accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the statement of financial condition date but before the financial statements are issued. ASC 855 sets forth the period after the statement of financial condition date during which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition in the financial statements, identifies circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the statement of financial condition date in its financial statements, and the disclosures that should be made about events or transactions that occur after the statement of financial condition date. In preparing these consolidated financial statements, the Company evaluated the events and transactions that occurred from October 1, 2009 through November 16, 2009, the date these consolidated financial statements were issued.
Note 2 - Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic net loss per common share was computed on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted loss per common share is computed on a weighted average basis under the “if converted” method assuming conversion as of January 1, 2009. Potential converted shares represent the conversion of the 100,000 shares of convertible preferred stock of the wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, Virginia Savings Bank, F.S.B. (“the Bank”), that is convertible in the ratio of two shares of common stock to three shares of preferred stock, or 66,666 common shares. These “if Converted” shares have been excluded from the earnings per share calculation as they would be anti-dilutive. With the exception of preferred stock dividends of subsidiary, there were no adjustments to net loss in the computation of diluted loss per common share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008. The following table shows the computation of basic and diluted loss per common share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008.

Note 3 - Guarantees
The Bank issues stand-by letters of credit that are unconditional commitments guaranteeing performance by a customer to a third party. These guarantees are issued primarily to support private borrowing arrangements, generally limited to real estate transactions. The credit risk involved in issuing these guarantees is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers. At September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, with consideration given to collateral and risk of default, management does not believe its exposure to these letters of credit is significant. These stand-by letters of credit were approximately $49,200 and $330,800, respectively, at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 with current expiration dates through August 10, 2010. The liability under these guarantees is not material.
The Bank also issues standard representations, warranties and indemnifications in the course of selling mortgage loans and other types of loans. The Bank has not been required to act on such guarantees in the past and does not believe that any payments pursuant to them would materially change the financial condition or results of operations as presented herein.
Note 4 - Investments
In April 2009, the FASB issued guidance related to the recognition and presentation of other-than-temporary impairments. This guidance clarifies the interaction of the factors that should be considered when determining whether a debt security is other-than-temporarily impaired. For debt securities, management must assess whether (a) it has the intent to sell the security and (b) it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security prior to its anticipated recovery. These steps are done before assessing whether the entity will recover the cost basis of the investment. Previously, this assessment required management to assert it has both the intent and the ability to hold a security for a
9
period of time sufficient to allow for an anticipated recovery in fair value to avoid recognizing an other-than-temporary impairment. This change does not affect the need to forecast recovery of the value of the security through either cash flows or market price.
In instances when a determination is made that an other-than-temporary impairment exists but the investor does not intend to sell the debt security and it is not more likely than not that it will be required to sell the debt security prior to its anticipated recovery, the FASB’s guidance changes the presentation and amount of the other-than-temporary impairment recognized in the income statement. The other-than-temporary impairment is separated into (a) the amount of the total other-than-temporary impairment related to a decrease in cash flows expected to be collected from the debt security (the credit loss) and (b) the amount of the total other-than-temporary impairment related to all other factors. The amount of the total other-than-temporary impairment related to the credit loss is recognized in earnings. The amount of the total other-than-temporary impairment related to all other factors is recognized in other comprehensive income.

The Company’s available for sale securities held at September 30, 2009 were in unrealized gain or loss positions for twelve months or less. The Company’s held to maturity investments at September 30, 2009 included a certificate of deposit, two federal agency securities that had fair values equal to their recorded costs and three mortgage backed securities with a fair value of $7,202 that have been in an immaterial unrealized loss for more than twelve months.

The Company’s available for sale securities held at December 31, 2008 were all purchased in fiscal year 2008 and therefore were in a unrealized loss position for less than 12 months. These securities consisted of one municipal bond, four corporate bonds and three mortgage backed securities. The Company’s held to maturity investments at December 31, 2008 included three certificates of deposit that had fair values equal to their recorded cost and three mortgage backed securities that had been in an immaterial unrealized loss position for more than 12 months.
Management evaluates securities for other than temporary impairment no less frequently than quarterly. The Company obtains security prices and debt ratings from two independent sources in
11
order to make a determination that any decreases in fair value below recorded costs of the securities are not other than temporary impairment. Management believes that the unrealized losses noted above at September 30, 2009 were primarily the result of changes in market interest rates and not indicative of credit quality issues. There were no sales of securities in the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The Company has the intent to hold the securities and does not believe it will be required to sell securities with unrealized losses before recovery occurs.
Management evaluates the Company’s restricted stock in the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) for impairment in accordance with ASC 942-10 (formerly Statement of Position (“SOP”) 01-6,Accounting by Certain Entities (Including With Trade Receivables) That Lend to or Finance The Activities of Others).Management’s determination of whether this investment is impaired is based on their assessment of the ultimate recoverability of its cost rather than by recognizing temporary declines in value. The determination of whether a decline affects the ultimate recoverability of its cost is influenced by criteria such as (1) the significance of the decline in net assets of the FHLB as compared to the capital stock amount for the FHLB and the length of time this situation has persisted, (2) commitments by the FHLB to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance of the FHLB, and (3) the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on institutions and, accordingly, on the customer base of the FHLB. The Company has concluded that the restricted stock investment is not impaired as of September 30, 2009.
Note 5 - Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments are summarized below. The fair values of a significant portion of these financial instruments are estimates derived using present value techniques and may not be indicative of the net realizable or liquidation values. Also, the calculation of estimated fair values is based on market conditions at a specific point in time and may not reflect current or future fair values.
The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value for cash, federal funds sold and interest-bearing deposits in other banks due to the short-term nature of these investments. The fair values of securities available for sale (carried at fair value) are determined by obtaining quoted market prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges (Level 1), or matrix pricing (Level 2), which is a mathematical technique used widely in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted market prices for specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted prices. The carrying amount of FHLB stock approximates fair value, and considers the limited marketability of such securities. Loans receivable were discounted using a single discount rate, comparing the current market rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. These rates were used for each aggregated category of loans as reported on the OTS Quarterly Interest Rate Risk Exposure Report. The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts and money market deposits is by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using market rates currently offered on deposits of similar remaining maturities. The fair value of short-term FHLB advances, all with original terms of one year or less, is the amount payable at the reporting date.
The carrying amounts for interest receivable, interest payable, and mortgage servicing rights approximate fair value at the balance sheet date.
12
The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business, including loan commitments and letters of credit. The off-balance sheet fair values are based on fees charged for similar agreements. The liabilities related to these financial instruments do not represent material risks to the Company. The Company does not believe that these obligations will materially affect its financial condition or results of operations.
The estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments are as follows:

In April 2009, the FASB issued ASC 820-10-65 (formerly FSP No. FAS 157-4,Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly). ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell the asset or transfer the liability in an orderly transaction (that is, not a forced liquidation or distressed sale) between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. ASC 820-10-65 provides additional guidance on determining when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability has significantly decreased. The FSP also includes guidance on identifying circumstances when a transaction may not be considered orderly.
ASC 820-10-65 provides a list of factors that a reporting entity should evaluate to determine whether there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability in relation to normal market activity for the asset or liability. When the reporting entity concludes there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability, further analysis of the information from that market is needed and significant adjustments to the related prices may be necessary to estimate fair value in accordance with this guidance.
This guidance clarifies that when there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability, some transactions may not be orderly. In those situations, the entity must evaluate the weight of the evidence to determine whether the transaction is orderly. The guidance provides a list of circumstances that may indicate that a transaction is not orderly. A transaction price that is not associated with an orderly transaction is given little, if any, weight when estimating fair value.
13
ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation methods used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 are as follows:
| | |
Level 1: | | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. |
| |
Level 2: | | Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. |
| |
Level 3: | | Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e. supported with little or no market activity). |
An asset’s or liability’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
For assets that the Company measures at fair value on a recurring basis, the fair value measurements by level within the fair value hierarchy used at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 are as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Sept. 30, 2009 | | Level 1 | | Level 2 | | Level 3 |
Investments available for sale | | $ | 3,748,827 | | $ | - | | $ | 3,748,827 | | $ | - |

Investments available for sale | | $ | 5,046,563 | | $ | - | | $ | 5,046,563 | | $ | - |
For assets that the Company measures at fair value on a non-recurring basis, the fair value measurements by level within the fair value hierarchy used at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 are as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | |
| | Sept. 30, 2009 | | Level 1 | | Level 2 | | Level 3 |
Impaired loans | | $ | 2,338,461 | | | | | | $ | 2,338,461 |
Foreclosed real estate | | | 1,790,400 | | | | | | | 1,790,400 |
| | | | |
| | Dec. 31, 2008 | | Level 1 | | Level 2 | | Level 3 |
Impaired loans | | $ | 247,230 | | | | | | $ | 247,230 |
Foreclosed real estate | | | 1,305,878 | | | | | | | 1,305,878 |
The following valuation techniques were used to measure the fair value of assets in the table.
The Company reviews its available for sale investment securities portfolio on a quarterly basis to evaluate the fair value of these investments. The Company obtains price quotes for securities with comparable financial characteristics and maturities from two third party sources, and are therefore included as Level 2 fair values.
14
Loans included in the above table are those which were accounted for under ASC 310-10 (formerly SFAS Number 114,“Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan”), under which the Company has measured impairment generally based on the fair value of the loan’s collateral. Fair value is generally determined based upon independent third party appraisals of the properties, or discounted cash flows based upon the expected proceeds. These assets are included as Level 3 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements. The fair value consists of the loan balances of $2,665,161 and $527,230 less their valuation allowances of $326,700 and $280,000 at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively, as determined under ASC 310-10. The balance in the allowance for losses on impaired loans has been affected by various factors as indicated in the table below:

| | | | | | | | |
Fair values of foreclosed real estate were based on independent third party appraisals of the properties or discounted cash flows based upon the expected sales proceeds upon disposition of the assets. These values were generally determined based on the sales prices of similar properties in the proximate vicinity. These assets are included as Level 3 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements. The fair value consists of foreclosed real estate of $1,808,264 and $1,682,221 at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively, less net valuation allowances of $17,864 at September 30, 2009 and $376,343 at December 31, 2008. The Company recognized net adjustments to the carrying value of real estate owned of $24,357 that is included in earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, but no additional adjustment of foreclosed real estate was recorded in earnings for the quarter ended September 30, 2009.
Note 6 - Preferred Stock of Subsidiary
On March 31, 2006, the Bank entered into a stock purchase agreement with a third party pursuant to which the Bank sold 100,000 shares of Series A preferred stock at a purchase price of $10.00 per share. The Series A preferred stock pays a $0.75 annual dividend, payable in quarterly installments. The dividends payable on the Series A preferred stock are prior and in preference to any dividend on the Bank’s common stock. Beginning on March 31, 2008, the Series A preferred stock became redeemable at the option of the Bank, in whole or in part, at a redemption price of (1) $10.00 per share and (2) and accrued but unpaid dividends. Beginning on April 1, 2008, the holder of Series A preferred stock of the Bank became entitled to convert the security into shares of the Company’s common stock such that for every three shares of Series A preferred stock the former holder thereof would receive two shares of the Company’s common stock.
15
In December 2007, the FASB issued ASC 810-10-65 (formerly SFAS No. 160,Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an Amendment of ARB 51), which requires non-controlling interests (previously referred to a minority interests) to be treated as a separate component of equity. ASC 810-10-65 was effective for periods beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier application was prohibited. ASC 810-10-65 applies to the Series A preferred stock of the Bank. ASC 810-10-65 is applied prospectively to all non-controlling interests, including any that arose before the effective date except that comparative period information must be recast to re-classify non-controlling interest in equity, attribute net income and other comprehensive income to non-controlling interest, and provide other disclosures required by ASC 810-10-65. The following table presents the effect of adoption of ASC 810-10-65 on the statement of financial condition.

Note 7 - Pending Stockholder Equity Transaction
On September 29, 2009, the Company made a preliminary filing of a Schedule 13E-3 and a preliminary proxy material filing on Schedule 14A with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the purpose of which is to amend its articles of incorporation to provide for a reclassification of approximately 93,600 shares of common stock into a newly created Series A non-voting preferred stock. The purpose of the reclassification is to reduce the number of shareholders of the Company’s common stock to below 300 in order to allow the Company to terminate the registration of its common stock under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and to suspend its obligation to file reports under Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. On or about November 13, 2009, the Company mailed a definitive proxy statement to its shareholders with respect to a special meeting of shareholders to be held on December 17, 2009 to approve the reclassification.
Note 8 - New Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 166,Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140.This statement prescribes the information that a reporting entity must provide in its financial reports about a transfer of financial assets; the effects of a transfer on its financial position, financial performance and cash flows; and a transferor’s continuing involvement in transferred financial assets. Specifically, among other aspects, SFAS 166 amends Statement of Financial Standard No. 140,Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities, (“SFAS 140”), by removing the concept of a qualifying special-purpose entity from SFAS 140 and removes the exception from applying FIN 46(R) to variable interest entities that are qualifying special-purpose entities. It also modifies the financial-components approach used in SFAS 140. SFAS 166 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. We have not determined the effect that the adoption of SFAS 166 will have on our financial position or results of operations.
16
In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167,Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R.)This statement amends FASB Interpretation No. 46,Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities revised December 2003 — an interpretation of ARB No. 51, or FIN 46(R), to require an enterprise to determine whether it’s variable interest or interests give it a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity. The primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity is the enterprise that has both (1) the power to direct the activities of a variable interest entity that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and (2) the obligation to absorb losses of the entity that could potentially be significant to the variable interest entity or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the variable interest entity. SFAS 167 also amends FIN 46(R) to require ongoing reassessments of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity. SFAS 167 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. The Company does not believe that the adoption of SFAS 167 will have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.
In June 2009, the FASB issued, “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162”,formerly SFAS 168. The FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ the Codification”) is the source of authoritative U.S. generally accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. As of September 15, 2009, the Codification supersedes all then-existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other non-grandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification is no longer authoritative. The Company adopted this statement and determined that it did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
In August 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update NO. 2009-05, “Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value”. This update amends the Fair Value and Measurements and Disclosures Topic of the Codification by providing additional guidance clarifying the measurement of liabilities at fair value. This update is effective for periods beginning after August 26, 2009. This update is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Item 2 - Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Forward-Looking Statements
This quarterly report of the Company contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The words “will,” “believe,” “expect,” “should,” and “anticipate” and words of similar construction are intended in part to help identify forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainty and certain factors could cause actual results to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in forward-looking statements. Risks and uncertainties that may affect future results include, but are not limited to, changes in the economy, interest rate movements, timely developments of technology resources for customer services and operating systems, the impact of competitive services and pricing, Congressional legislation and similar matters. Management cautions readers not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which are subject to influence by the foregoing risk factors and unanticipated future events.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30 , 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or the entire year ending December 31, 2009.
Critical Accounting Policies
The Company’s accounting policies are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and conform to practices generally followed in the banking industry. Certain of these policies involve a significant amount of judgment and estimates based on assumptions for which the actual results are uncertain. Different assumptions in the preparation of these estimates could result in material changes in the Company’s financial position and results of operations. Our judgments and estimates are based upon historical experience and other factors management believes to be reasonable within the context of the circumstances in which they are applied.
There are three areas of accounting policy and practice that are particularly sensitive to management’s judgment and in which significant estimates are used. These are allowances for losses on loans, allowances for losses on foreclosed real estate, and other than temporary impairment of investment securities. Other accounting policies also involve the use of judgment and significant estimates but the impact of these processes are not material to the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.
ASC 310-10,Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, provides guidelines for the valuation of impaired loans. More extensive guidelines have been published by bank regulatory bodies. The latter provide for the classification of problem loans as sub-standard, doubtful and loss. There is also a regulatory special mention category for performing loans that are the subject of heightened management concern as potential problem loans.
It is the Bank’s general policy to place loans in a non-accrual status when they become 90 days delinquent. Loans may, however, be placed in a non-accrual status regardless of their term of delinquency if the borrower exhibits signs of financial distress or if the collateral property
18
decreases in value significantly below the loan balance. As of September 30, 2009, the Bank evaluated loans for impairment that were:
| 1. | In a non-accrual status, |
| 2. | Accruing and were included in the Bank’s classified assets, and |
| 3. | That were not in either of the two categories above but were classified as restructured troubled debt. |
The Bank has provided specific loan loss allowances against these loans that totaled $326,700. No specific loss allowances were required on the remaining loans because management believes they have collateral values that exceed the related loan balances.
Under FASB ASC 450, formerly Statement No. 5,Accounting for Contingencies, loan loss allowances on large groups of homogeneous loans are provided based upon the Bank’s historical loss experience for similar types of loans. As part of its loan loss analysis under FASB 5, management also considers qualitative factors including concentrations of credit and current economic conditions as they may impact borrowers’ ability to meet their financial obligations.
Management identified four classifications of loans that represent high concentrations of credit. Three of these credit concentration areas fall in a range of 100% to 200% of equity. These loan products are home equity lines of credit, balloon loans, non-residential real estate loans and builder construction loans. Loans to builders for the speculative construction of homes were $3.6 million at September 30, 2009 and are less than equity. Home equity lines of credit and balloon loans are collateralized by residential one-to-four family properties and had balances of approximately $13.3 million and $36.6 million, respectively, at September 30, 2009. Non-residential real estate loans approximated $19.4 million at September 30, 2009.
During its most recent evaluation of the adequacy of the Company’s loan allowances conducted as of September 30, 2009, management concluded that the factors applied to performing loans to derive loss allowances were adequate as of end of the current quarter. We reached that conclusion after considering that balances in high concentration credit areas are diminishing, particularly in builder construction loans, and that there has not been a significant change in environmental factors since the previous evaluation as of June 30, 2009.
Management believes that as of September 30, 2009, the loan loss allowances provided are adequate to absorb the losses inherent in the Bank’s loan portfolio. We, however, caution that continued deterioration of real estate values and general economic conditions may result in the need for further additions to loan loss allowances if collateral values fall below loan balances on non-performing loans, and if home builders and other large borrowers who depend upon sales of real estate properties for repayment of their loans do not realize sufficient cash flows to repay their loans in full when they become due.
While management segments the loan portfolio into several categories for purposes of evaluating the adequacy of loan loss allowances and makes tentative allocations of these allowances to specific loan products, all general loss reserves are available to absorb losses from any sector of the loan portfolio.
The Company evaluates the fair value of foreclosed real estate. Such evaluations are based upon observable market values of comparable properties obtained through appraisals when available.
19
In the absence of adequate appraisal values, the properties are valued using the discounted present value of the anticipated future cash flows. In addition to the appraisal values, the Bank considers costs which may be necessary to make the property saleable, and selling costs to dispose of the property. The net realizable values derived through this process are measured against the recorded book value of the loan. The Bank records foreclosed real estate at fair value less estimated disposal costs at the foreclosure date. If the fair value less estimated disposal costs of the foreclosed real estate exceeds the related loan balance at the date of foreclosure, the positive valuation adjustment is recorded as a credit to other income. If the fair value less estimated disposal costs of the foreclosed real estate is less than the related loan balance at the date of foreclosure, the negative valuation adjustment is recorded as a charge against the loan loss allowance. Subsequent to the initial recording at fair value, foreclosed real estate properties are carried at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated disposal costs and are evaluated for impairment not less frequently than quarterly after the initial evaluation is performed at the time of acquisition. Any increase to the allowance for losses on foreclosed real estate made after the initial valuation is recorded as an expense. For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, the allowance for losses on foreclosed real estate increased $24,400, but no adjustments were made in the third quarter of 2009.
The Company reviews its investment securities portfolio on a quarterly basis to identify and evaluate investments that have indications of possible other than temporary impairment. The determination of whether or not other than temporary impairment exists is a matter of judgment. Management considers the current economic conditions, the length of time and extent to which fair value has been less than cost, interest rates, and the bond rating of each security. All of the securities are highly rated as investment grade and management does not believe that it will incur any losses. Such securities are written down to their fair value when there is impairment in value that is other than temporary. The Company has the ability and intent to hold the investment securities for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in market value, and does not believe it is more likely than not that it will have to sell the securities before recovery occurs. At September 30, 2009, the Company’s held to maturity investment securities had a fair value that approximates book value. These unrealized gains are not considered to be other than temporary and are primarily the result of interest rate changes.
The Company’s available for sale investment securities had a fair value of approximately $63,200 above book value. An unrealized gain of $21,300 was recorded in the current quarter as an increase to the securities’ carrying value with an offset to accumulated other comprehensive income. The $63,200 accumulated gain, net of a $24,000 provision for income taxes, is a component of equity.
Overview of Performance
Virginia Savings Bancorp, Inc. is a holding company incorporated in Virginia and headquartered in Front Royal, Virginia. The Company’s banking subsidiary is Virginia Savings Bank, FSB.
The Company recorded a net loss of $125,700 attributable to common shares for the nine months year-to-date (“YTD”) in 2009. This compares to an $361,500 loss for the same period in 2008. Thus far in 2009, the Company has recorded a $269,800 provision to its loan loss allowance and a $24,400 provision for losses on foreclosed real estate. The Company’s 2009 YTD net interest income increased $132,800 over 2008.

Financial Condition
At September 30, 2009, the total assets of the Company were $126.8 million, a decrease of $9.0 million since December 31, 2008. Significant decreases occurred in several areas; cash and cash equivalents decreased $2.2 million, investments available for sale decreased $1.3 million, investments held to maturity decreased $1.0 million, loans receivable decreased $2.9 million, and foreclosed real estate decreased $1.1 million.
Deposits decreased $9.1 million during the nine months YTD in 2009. Core deposit accounts, primarily checking and passbook savings accounts, increased $2.3 million from December 31, 2008 to September 30, 2009. Certificate of deposit accounts decreased $11.4 million during the same time period. At September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the Company had no short-term borrowings.
Asset Quality
Asset quality has been an area requiring considerable attention from management since early in 2008. At the end of the current quarter, the Bank had $9.2 million of classified assets including $2.5 million of foreclosed real estate. Management takes a proactive approach to problem asset resolution and is aggressive in identifying and foreclosing when necessary on impaired loans. As a consequence, we foreclosed upon $3.1 million of real estate loans during the year ended December 31, 2008. In the third quarter of 2009, the Bank foreclosed upon $1,684,000 of loans receivable. Of that amount, $1,262,000 was sold to third parties at the trustee’s sales. The remaining $422,000 was transferred into foreclosed real estate. Initial valuations of the foreclosed properties resulted in negative fair value adjustments that were charged against the loan loss allowance. During the third quarter of 2009, previously existing foreclosed real estate totaling $1,469,000 was sold at net loss of $1,300.
Non-accrual loans were approximately $2.0 million at December 31, 2008 and are currently $2.3 million. Management believes that it has identified all problem loans in loans receivable as of September 30, 2009 and has provided adequate loan loss allowances for potential losses inherent in the loan portfolio. In making this statement, we must caution that we are in a period of great uncertainty regarding the economic and financial conditions nationally and in the Company’s market area. Today’s well-performing loan may eventually become a problem asset.
Nine Months Ended Sept. 30, 2009 Compared to Nine Months Ended Sept. 30, 2008
The Company recorded a loss attributable to common shareholders of $125,700 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, a decrease of $235,800 from the $361,500 loss, for the same period in 2008. Net interest income increased $132,800 from the same period last year. Non-interest income decreased $1,079,700. Non-interest expenses decreased $347,100.
Net interest margin, the difference between interest income and interest expense, is the primary source of operating revenues for the Company. Table 1 below presents, for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, the average balances, related interest income and expense amounts, and average yields and costs which influence the Bank’s net interest margin. Table 2 reflects the changes in interest income and interest expense between the periods which resulted from changes in average volumes and average rates.

Net Interest Income | | $ | (125 | ) | | $ | 334 | | | $ | (76 | ) | | $ | 133 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Net interest income increased $133,000 from the nine months YTD of 2008 to the nine months YTD of 2009. This is net of an $1,077,000 decrease in interest income and a decrease of $1,210,000 in interest expense.
Interest on loans receivable decreased $604,000 for the nine months YTD 2009 from the same period in 2008. Table 2 above indicates that the decrease in interest income from loans was due to a decrease in the average volume of loans outstanding and a decrease in income caused by lower interest rates in the current period. The average balance of loans outstanding, as reported in Table 1, decreased by $7.8 million from 2008 to 2009, while the average yield on loans receivable decreased by 30 basis points. Loans receivable had an average yield of 6.21% for the first nine months of 2009, which is down from 6.51% in 2008. The data in Table 2 indicates that the lower average volume of loans outstanding YTD in 2009 decreased interest income by $379,000, and that lower interest rates decreased income by $242,000.
Interest and dividend income on investments decreased by $473,000 for the nine months YTD in 2009 versus the nine months YTD in the 2008. Interest income on investment securities decreased by $362,000 in the nine months ended September 30, 2009 from the nine months ended September 30, 2008 due to a lower average balance outstanding in the nine months YTD 2009 and $109,000 due to a decrease in the average interest rate. The average balance of investment securities decreased by $11.9 million in YTD 2009 from the same period in 2008, and the average rate decreased by 75 basis points. The remaining sources of dividend and interest income
23
decreased $111,000 which was primarily rate driven. The Bank’s overall yield on interest earning assets was 5.62% in 2009, a 35 basis point decrease from the 5.97% achieved in 2008.
Interest expense decreased $1,210,000 YTD in 2009 from YTD in 2008. The decrease in interest expense was primarily caused by a $904,000 decrease in interest on certificates of deposit and a $130,000 decrease in interest on short-term borrowings. The average balance of certificates of deposit decreased by $12.3 million YTD in 2009 compared to the same period in 2008, and the average interest rate decreased 102 basis points. These changes resulted in a $373,000 decrease in interest expense due to the decreased volume of accounts outstanding and a $625,000 decrease in interest expense due to lower interest rates paid. Interest on transaction accounts decreased $176,000 and was primarily rate driven. The Company’s use of borrowings was extremely limited in 2009. The $130,000 decrease in interest expense for the first nine months of 2009 was entirely volume driven.
The Company’s overall cost of interest bearing liabilities decreased 104 basis points YTD in 2009 versus 2008, decreasing from 3.10% in 2008 to 2.06% in 2009.
The Company made a $269,800 provision for loan losses for the nine ended September 30, 2009 as compared to a $1,272,100 provision for loan losses in the nine months ended September 30, 2008. The Bank accounts for the credit risk associated with its lending activities through its provision for loan losses. The provision is the expense recognized in the statement of operations to adjust the loan loss allowance to an appropriate balance as determined by the Bank’s credit risk analysis procedures. See “Critical Accounting Policies” for a discussion of the Bank’s methodology for determining loan loss allowances.
The $269,800 provision for loan losses is in recognition of concentrations of credit risk in the Bank’s loan portfolio, the Bank’s recent experiences in management of foreclosed real estate, environmental concerns over both the local and national real estate markets, and other economic uncertainties potentially affecting the performance of the loan portfolio.
Total non-interest income decreased $1,079,800 from the nine months YTD ended September 30, 2008 to the same period in 2009.
Loan fees and late charges decreased $42,200, or 29.0% from YTD 2008 to YTD 2009. This decrease was due to a $34,600 decrease in fees for short-term loan extensions. All other fees decreased a net amount of $7,600.
Income from mortgage banking activities decreased $40,600, or 54.5%. Fees for loans originated on behalf of a correspondent decreased $16,700. In addition, loan servicing fees decreased $10,400 and amortization of mortgage servicing rights, an offset to income, increased by $13,500.
Fees from transaction accounts decreased 14.2% or $120,100 from YTD 2008 to YTD 2009 primarily due to an $90,100 decrease in insufficient fund fees. ATM fees decreased $10,600 from YTD 2008. All other transaction account fees decreased a net amount of $19,400 in the current period compared to the same period in 2008. Anecdotal evidence from customer comments indicate that they are managing their financial affairs more carefully to avoid deposit account fees because of their concerns about the economy.
24
Net gains on foreclosed real estate were $844,200 YTD in 2008 compared to a $2,700 loss in 2009. The large gain in 2008 was the result of unique circumstances in which the Company recognized a positive valuation adjustment of approximately $889,000 on foreclosed real estate properties. In 2009, six foreclosed real estate properties were sold at an approximate breakeven.
Other income decreased $30,100 from the nine months YTD in 2008 to the nine months YTD 2009. Income received from Bankers Title Company, that decreased $31,600, was exceptionally high in 2008 because of an equity distribution received as the result of payment of entrance fees by new investors in the prior year.
Non-interest expenses decreased $347,100, or 8.2%, YTD in 2009 compared to YTD 2008. Management instituted a cost-cutting program in 2008, the effects of which are reflected in the Company’s 2009 results. Most controllable expense categories are reduced from their comparable 2008 levels. An increase in FDIC insurance premiums in 2009 of $203,800 significantly affected the cost reductions otherwise achieved by the Company.
Salaries and employee benefits decreased $145,200, or 7.0%, in 2009 from 2008. Salaries decreased $108,400 and group insurance benefits decreased $36,800. Effective January 1, 2009, the salaries of all employees of the Company were reduced approximately 5% as a temporary cost savings measure until a return to profitable operations is achieved. The Company selected a new insurance company to provide group health insurance for employees at a lower cost than that available from the previous insurance company.
Directors’ fees and expenses decreased $79,900, or 56.3%, YTD in 2009 from YTD 2008 due to the implementation of a lower cost insurance benefit plan that reduced insurance premiums by $79,400
Professional fees increased $63,100 for YTD in 2009 from YTD 2008 due to a net $42,000 increase in professional service fees and a $21,100 increase in legal fees in connection with the Company’s pending reclassification transaction.
Data processing expenses decreased $92,700, or 13.6%, YTD in 2009 from YTD 2008 primarily due to a $59,900 decrease in deposit account servicing costs and a $28,200 decrease in data communication costs. All other data processing expense decreased a net amount of $4,600.
Marketing expenses decreased $31,400, or 40.8% for the nine months YTD in 2009 from 2008. As part of its cost reduction efforts, management assessed its marketing needs and significantly reduced its advertising plans and reduced its marketing expenses accordingly
Occupancy, furniture and equipment expense increased $33,900, or 12.6%, in 2009 from 2008 primarily due to a $20,500 increase in building depreciation expense and a $12,200 increase in utilities expense related to the opening of a new branch in July, 2008.
Foreclosed real estate expense decreased $239,900, or 70.3%, in 2009 from 2008. In 2008, significant expenses were incurred as the result of foreclosures conducted on several properties. In 2009, foreclosure activity was significantly reduced from the 2008 level. The 2009 expenses, which totaled $101,200, included approximately $45,500 directly related to foreclosure activity. The remaining $55,700 of expenses were for the payment of real estate taxes and the maintenance and protection of foreclosed real estate properties.
25
FDIC insurance premiums increased by $203,800 YTD in 2009 from the YTD 2008. In the current year, the FDIC imposed a special assessment on all financial institutions which was approximately $60,000 for the Bank. The remainder of the increase is due to higher regular assessments imposed by the FDIC in 2009 versus 2008.
Overdraft protection plan expenses decreased by $15,700 YTD in 2009 from YTD 2008. This decrease is related to the reduction in insufficient fund fee income.
Income tax benefit for the nine months YTD in 2009 was $35,300, a decrease of $166,500 from 2008’s income tax benefit of $201,800. The effective tax benefit rate for the nine months YTD in 2009 was 33.7% versus 39.8% for the same period in 2008.

Net Interest Income | | $ | (80 | ) | | $ | 154 | | | $ | (6 | ) | | $ | 68 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Net interest income increased $68,000 from the third quarter of 2008 to the third quarter of 2009. This is the net of a $278,000 decrease in interest income and a decrease of $346,000 in interest expense.
Interest on loans receivable decreased $130,000 in the quarter ended September 30, 2009 from the quarter ended September 30, 2008. Table 4 above indicates that the decrease in interest income from loans was due to a decrease in the average volume of loans outstanding and a decrease in income caused by lower interest rates in the current period. The average balance of loans outstanding, as reported in Table 3, decreased by $5.5 million from 2008 to 2009, while the average yield on loans receivable decreased by 16 basis points. Loans receivable had an average yield of 6.28% for the third quarter of 2009, which is down from 6.44% in third quarter of 2008. The data in Table 4 indicates that the lower average volume of loans outstanding during the first quarter of 2009 decreased interest income by $105,000, and that lower interest rates decreased income by $27,000.
Interest and dividend income on investments decreased by $148,000 in the quarter ended September 30, 2009 from the quarter ended September 30, 2008. Interest income on investment securities decreased by $116,000 in the quarter ended September 30, 2009 from the quarter ended September 30, 2008 due to a lower average balance outstanding in the second quarter of 2009 and a decrease in the average interest rate. The average balance of investment securities decreased by $8.9 million in the third quarter of 2009 from the same period in 2008, and the average rate decreased by 117 basis points. Interest income on other interest earning investments
28
decreased $30,000, which was primarily rate driven. The Bank’s overall yield on interest earning assets was 5.74% in 2009, a 26 basis point decrease from the 6.00% achieved in 2008.
Interest expense decreased $346,000 in the quarter ended September 30, 2009 from the quarter ended September 30, 2008. The decrease in interest expense was primarily caused by a $268,000 decrease in interest on certificates of deposit. The average balance of certificates of deposit decreased by $12.9 million in the third quarter of 2009 compared to the same quarter in 2008, and the average interest rate decreased 92 basis points. These changes resulted in a $120,000 decrease in interest expense due to the decreased volume of accounts outstanding and a $177,000 decrease in interest expense due to lower interest rates paid. Interest on transaction accounts decreased $77,000. The decrease in interest on transaction accounts was primarily rate driven.
The Company’s overall cost of interest bearing liabilities decreased 93 basis points in the third quarter of 2009 versus the third quarter of 2008, decreasing from 2.81% in 2008 to 1.88% in 2009.
The Company made a $78,500 provision for loan losses for the three months ended September 30, 2009 as compared to a $318,700 provision for loan losses in the three months ended September 30, 2008. The Bank accounts for the credit risk associated with its lending activities through its provision for loan losses. The provision is the expense recognized in the statement of operations to adjust the loan loss allowance to an appropriate balance as determined by the Bank’s credit risk analysis procedures. See “Critical Accounting Policies” for a discussion of the Bank’s methodology for determining loan loss allowances.
The $78,500 provision for loan losses is in recognition of concentrations of credit risk in the Bank’s loan portfolio, the Bank’s recent experiences in management of foreclosed real estate, environmental concerns over both the local and national real estate markets, and other economic uncertainties potentially affecting the performance of the loan portfolio.
Total non-interest income decreased $35,900 from the quarter ended September 30, 2008 to the same period in 2009.
Loan fees and late charges decreased $10,600, or 29.3%, from third quarter, 2008 to third quarter 2009. This decrease was primarily due to a $5,300 decrease in fees for short-term loan extensions, and a $4,700 decrease in late charges.
Income from mortgage banking activities decreased $7,600, or 51.2%. Loan servicing fees decreased $4,500 and correspondent fees for originations of mortgages decreased by $5,100.
Net gains on foreclosed real estate were $12,700 in third quarter 2008 compared to a $1,300 loss in 2009. In third quarter 2009, four foreclosed real estate properties were sold at an approximate breakeven.
Non-interest expenses decreased $134,900 in the third quarter of 2009 compared to the third quarter of 2008. Management instituted a cost-cutting program in 2008, the effects of which are reflected in the Company’s third quarter 2009 results. Most controllable expense categories are reduced from their third quarter 2008 levels.
29
Salaries and employee benefits decreased $38,100, or 5.5%, in third quarter 2009 from the third quarter of 2008. Salaries decreased $29,400 and group insurance benefits decreased $16,900. Effective January 1, 2009, the salaries of all employees of the Company were reduced approximately 5% as a temporary cost savings measure until a return to profitable operations is achieved. The Company selected a new insurance company to provide group health insurance for employees at a lower cost than that available from the previous insurance company. All other compensation related expenses increased a net amount of $8,200.
Directors’ fees and expenses increased $8,200, or 56.0%, in the third quarter 2009 from the third quarter of 2008 due to an increased number of board meetings.
Data processing expenses decreased $34,500, or 14.8%, in the third quarter 2009 from the third quarter of 2008 primarily due to a $17,200 decrease in deposit account servicing costs and an $18,700 decrease in data communication costs.
Marketing expenses decreased $9,800 in third quarter 2009 from third quarter 2008. As part of its cost reduction efforts, management assessed its marketing needs and significantly reduced its advertising plans.
Professional fees increased $58,100 in the third quarter of 2009 from the third quarter of 2008. The increase is related to a $22,300 increase in audit and tax services expense and a $31,600 increase in legal fees in connection with the Company’s pending SEC transaction. All other professional fees increased a net amount of $4,200.
Foreclosed real estate expense decreased $109,800 in the third quarter of 2009 from the third quarter of 2008. In 2008, significant expenses were incurred as the result of foreclosures conducted on several properties and a $92,600 reduction in carrying value of foreclosed real estate. In 2009, there was significantly reduced foreclosure activity. In 2009, $64,300 of expenses were incurred for the payment of real estate taxes and the maintenance and protection of existing foreclosed real estate properties, plus $45,500 of foreclosure expenses.
FDIC insurance premiums increased by $9,000 in the third quarter of 2009 from the third quarter of 2008. The increase is due to higher regular assessments imposed by the FDIC in third quarter 2009 versus third quarter 2008.
Overdraft protection plan expenses increased by $5,400 in third quarter 2009 from third quarter of 2008. This increase is related to the increase in insufficient fund fee income.
Other expenses decreased $31,200 in third quarter 2009 from third quarter of 2008 due to cost cutting programs.
Income tax expense for the third quarter of 2009 was $7,200 versus the third quarter of 2008’s income tax benefit of $136,800. The effective tax expense rate for the three months ended September 30, 2009 was 26.9% versus a 36.0% tax benefit rate for the same period in 2008.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
At September 30, 2009, the Company had approximately $10.2 million of liquid assets in the form of cash and cash equivalent investments. The Company also has $3.7 million of investment securities that are classified as available for sale and $2.0 million of investments classified as held to maturity. As of September 30, 2009, the Company has pledged $500,000 of held to maturity US agency bonds as collateral for public deposits of Virginia counties.
The Company has approximately $28.8 million of pre-approved credit from the FHLB with funding available on a same day basis and did not have any borrowings outstanding against this line of credit at September 30, 2009.
The Company’s current liquidity position is more than adequate to meet its lending needs and to fund potential customer withdrawals from deposit accounts.
At September 30, 2009, the Company’s common equity was equal to 8.7% of total assets and is increased from 8.2% at December 31, 2008. Total equity decreased by $32,000 during the nine months YTD in 2009. This is the net of a $69,500 operating loss, plus $56,200 of dividend payments, less a $93,700 increase in other comprehensive income.
The Office of Thrift Supervision (“OTS”) regulations require federal savings banks to maintain minimum capital standards: a 4.0% of tangible assets Tier 1 (core) capital requirement, and an 8.0% risk based capital requirement. These capital requirements are applicable to the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Virginia Savings Bank, F.S.B. The OTS does not have specific capital requirements applicable to thrift holding companies.
The Bank is required to file a quarterly report on its financial condition, results of operations and other financial information with the OTS. OTS financial reporting rules follow the same GAAP applicable to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q except for certain specified areas in which regulatory accounting principles (“RAP”) differ from GAAP. One of these areas is accounting for properties acquired through foreclosure. GAAP indicates that these properties should be accounted for at their fair value on the foreclosure date and at the lower of cost or fair value thereafter. OTS RAP specifies that they be reported at the lower of their historical cost or their fair value. Application of RAP to the Bank’s accounting for real estate acquired through foreclosure initially resulted in approximately $603,000 less in prior period earnings and tangible capital, as reported to the OTS than the amounts determined under GAAP. During the quarter ended June 30, 2009, one of the foreclosed real estate properties affecting this difference was sold. The current difference between GAAP and RAP is approximately $452,000. This difference between GAAP and RAP will continue to exist until the Bank disposes of the remaining properties. Table 5 reflects the $452,000 lower amount of capital reported to OTS. In addition to this accounting difference, the financial information reported to the OTS is for the Bank only. The Company is not subject to minimum capital requirements under OTS regulations.

To be considered a well-capitalized institution under the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991, the Bank must have a core capital ratio of at least 5.0%, a Tier I risk-based capital ratio of at least 6%, and a total risk-based capital ratio of at least 10%. The most recent notification from the OTS categorized the Bank as well-capitalized.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Bank routinely engages in off-balance sheet arrangements in the normal course of business to meet the financial needs of its customers. These arrangements consist of outstanding mortgage loan commitments, letters of credit and lines of credit and involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the statement of financial condition. The contractual amounts of these instruments are an indication of the extent of involvement the Bank has in each class of off-balance sheet financial instruments. The Bank’s exposure to credit loss from non-performance by the other party to the above-mentioned financial instruments is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.
The Bank had outstanding commitments to make mortgage loans secured by real property, exclusive of the undisbursed portion of loans in process, of approximately $307,000 at September 30, 2009, all of which expire within one year. Loans in process represent the undisbursed portion of construction loans already on the Bank’s books. Disbursements are made at each stage of the construction process after an inspection by a qualified real estate appraiser. At September 30, 2009, the Bank had loans in process commitments of approximately $707,000 that expire within nine months.
The Bank also issues stand-by letters of credit that are unsecured conditional commitments issued by the Bank guaranteeing performance by a customer to a third party. These guarantees are issued
32
primarily to support private borrowing arrangements. At September 30, 2009, the Bank had $49,200 of stand-by letters of credit outstanding with expiration dates through August 10, 2010.
Lines of credit are loan commitments to individuals and companies that have fixed expiration dates as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. The Bank evaluates each customer’s credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The Bank, at September 30, 2009, had secured lines of credit with available balances of $11.4 million and unsecured lines of credit with available balances of $1.4 million. Many of these commitments are expected to expire without being fully drawn down. The total commitment amounts do not therefore necessarily represent future cash requirements.
The risks involved in these off-balance sheet arrangements are essentially the same as those involved in extending loan facilities to customers. No amount has been recognized in the statement of financial condition as of September 30, 2009 as a liability for credit loss due to off-balance sheet arrangements. Management does not anticipate any difficulties in funding these commitments.

The most recent review of these systems, conducted as of September 30, 2009, indicated one material weakness, which is detailed below, that could adversely affect the Company’s ability to properly and accurately record and report financial data.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
The Company, under the direction of its Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2009.
In its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2009, management’s assessment identified material weaknesses that existed as of June 30, 2009, in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting because of ineffective controls related to computations, methodology and presentation of a limited number of non-routine complex transactions which could potentially aggregate to material misstatements in financial reporting. Management’s assessment of internal controls as of June 30, 2009 also identified instances of significant deficiencies in internal controls pertaining to segregation of duties and independent review that existed at June 30, 2009, which when combined, are considered by management to be a material weakness in internal controls.
Early in the third quarter of 2009, management implemented changes in control policies and procedures, to correct the significant deficiencies identified in the previous internal control evaluation. Testing of the revised control policies and procedures conducted during the quarter ended September 30, 2009 did not indicate any un-remediated significant deficiencies. During the testing of internal controls that was conducted during the quarter ended September 30, 2009 by an independent accounting firm on behalf of management, one material weakness was identified that was noted as being in the process of remediation at the time testing took place. During the testing, it was indicated that all members of the accounting staff had access to all facets of general ledger due to a recent software conversion. Appropriate restrictions to general ledger access were implemented shortly after the material weakness was identified.
