NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2008 AND 2007
(unaudited)
1. Financial Statements
The consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 have been prepared by WSB Holdings, Inc. (“WSB” or the “Company”) without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows at June 30, 2008, and for all periods presented, have been made. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated.
WSB became the holding company of The Washington Savings Bank, F.S.B. (the “Bank”) as of January 3, 2008, and reports financial results on a calendar year basis (unlike the Bank’s previous fiscal year). Accordingly, results of operations and other financial data for periods prior to January 3, 2008 are for the Bank, and thereafter are for WSB on a consolidated basis.
As part of the formation of the holding company, the par value of common stock was changed from $1.00 to $0.0001 per share, resulting in a decrease in the common stock equity, offset by an increase in additional paid in capital, and shares of treasury stock held by the Bank were retired. Prior periods have been restated to reflect the change in par value and the retirement of treasury stock.
The Bank will continue to exist as a federally chartered savings bank and be managed by its current board of directors and officers.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Bank’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2007 (the “2007 Annual Report”), a copy of which was attached as an appendix to our Registration Statement on Form S-4, as amended, in connection with the holding company reorganization as well as the Bank’s reporting of the unaudited results and financial position for the five month transition period ending December 31, 2007 as filed on form 10-Q. The results of operations for the period ended June 30, 2008, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year, or any other period.
Certain prior year’s amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year’s presentation.

3. Stock-Based Compensation
WSB has incentive compensation plans that permit the granting of incentive and non-qualified awards in the form of stock options. These incentive plans were adopted from the Bank as a result of the reorganization. Generally, the terms of these plans stipulate that the exercise price of options may not be less than the fair market value of WSB’s common stock on the date the options are granted. Options predominantly vest over a two year period from the date of grant, and expire not later than ten years from the date of grant.

FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2008 AND 2007
(Continued)
In April 2007, the Bank awarded 5,000 shares under the 1997 Plan to its Chief Executive Officer, which have a ten-year contractual term and vest over a two year period. Total pre-tax stock-based compensation of $3,518 was recognized in the Statement of Operations for the six months ending June 30, 2008. There were no awards granted during the six months ending June 30, 2008. Approximately $5,274 of stock-based compensation expense remains for future periods until completion in April 2009. The fair value of the options awarded is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with volatility calculated based on historical close prices and a risk free rate is based on the respective treasury security as of the grant date closing price.
Stock Option Plans - WSB has five stock option plans, which reserve shares of common stock for issuance to certain key employees and non-employee directors. Collectively, these plans reserve 2,310,000 shares for issuance pursuant to options as of June 30, 2008, 1,884,125 options have been granted and 425,875 options remain available for grant. Options granted generally expire ten years after grant date and are exercisable at 50% one year after the date of grant and the remaining 50% two years after the date of grant, with the exceptions of (1) options granted under the Non-Employee Directors’ Plan, which options are exercisable at 25% on the first and second anniversary dates and the remaining 50% three years after the date of grant and (2) the 5,000 option grant to Phillip C. Bowman in September 2005, which were fully vested at time of grant and expire 5 years after the date of grant. The exercise price of the options granted pursuant to these plans is in each case the fair market value of the shares on the date of grant.
The following table summarizes stock option activity for the six month period ended June 30, 2008:

4. Uncertain Income Tax Positions
Effective August 2007, the Bank adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”), “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an Interpretation of FASB Statement 109”. As required by FIN 48, the cumulative effect has resulted in an increase to our liability for uncertain tax positions of a $474,253 charge to the retained earnings balance as of August 1, 2007. The full value of unrecognized tax benefits is $501,662 at June 30, 2008. If this liability were de-recognized, it would favorably impact the effective tax rate for the period of de-recognition. These non-current income tax liabilities are recorded in other liabilities in our consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2008.

(Continued)
Interest and penalties related to income tax liabilities are included in income tax expense. The balance of accrued interest and penalties included in the total $501,662 liability recorded in the consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2008 was $27,409.
5. Change in Reporting Period
As a result of the formation of WSB, of which the Bank is now a subsidiary, a change from a fiscal year end of July 31 to a calendar year reporting basis has been made.
As part of the formation of the holding company, the decrease in par value of common stock was changed from $1.00 to $0.0001 per share, resulting in a decrease in the common stock equity, offset by an increase in additional paid in capital, and shares of treasury stock held by the bank were retired.
Prior periods have been restated to reflect the change in par value and the retirement of treasury stock.
WSB will report on a calendar year basis. The Bank has changed its fiscal year end from July 31 to December 31.
6. Fair Value Measurements
Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”) which provides a framework for measuring and disclosing fair value under generally accepted accounting principles. SFAS 157 requires disclosures about the fair value of assets and liabilities recognized in the balance sheet in periods subsequent to initial recognition, whether the measurements are made on a recurring basis (for example, available-for-sale investment securities) or on a nonrecurring basis (for example, impaired loans).
SFAS 157 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. SFAS 157 also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
The Company utilizes fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and to determine fair value disclosures. Securities available for sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Additionally, from time to time, the Company may be required to record at fair value other assets on a nonrecurring basis, such as loans held for sale, loans held for investment and certain other assets. These nonrecurring fair value adjustments typically involve application of lower of cost or market accounting or write-downs of individual assets.
Under SFAS 157, the company groups assets and liabilities at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine the fair value. These hierarchy levels are:
Level 1 inputs – Unadjusted quoted process in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.
9
Table of Contents
WSB HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2008 AND 2007
(Continued)
Level 2 inputs - Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These might include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.
Level 3 inputs - Unobservable inputs for determining the fair values of assets or liabilities that reflect an entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities.
The following is a description of valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value:
Investment Securities Available-for-Sale
Investment securities available-for-sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted prices, if available. If quoted prices are not available, fair values are measured using independent pricing models or other model-based valuation techniques such as the present value of future cash flows, adjusted for the security’s credit rating, prepayment assumptions and other factors such as credit loss assumptions. Level 1 securities include those traded on an active exchange such as the New York Stock Exchange, Treasury securities that are traded by dealers or brokers in active over- the counter markets and money market funds. Level 2 securities include mortgage backed securities issued by government sponsored entities, municipal bonds and corporate debt securities. Securities classified as Level 3 include asset-backed securities in less liquid markets.
Loans
The Company does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis, however, from time to time, a loan is considered impaired and an allowance for loan loss is established. Loans for which it is probable that payment of interest and principle will not be made in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan are considered impaired. Once a loan is identified as individually impaired, management measures impairment in accordance with SFAS 114, “Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan,” (SFAS 114). The fair value of impaired loans is estimated using one of several methods, including the collateral value, market value of similar debt, enterprise value, liquidation value and discounted cash flows. Those impaired loans not requiring a specific allowance represents loans for which the fair value of expected repayments or collateral exceed the recorded investment in such loans. At June 30, 2008, substantially all of the totally impaired loans were evaluated based upon the fair value of the collateral. In accordance with SFAS 157, impaired loans where an allowance is established based on the fair value of collateral require classification in the fair value hierarchy. When the fair value of the collateral is based on an observable market price or a current appraised value, the Company records the loan as nonrecurring Level 2. When an appraised value is not available or management determines the fair value of the collateral is further impaired below the appraised value and there is no observable market price, the Company records the loan as nonrecurring Level 3.
Foreclosed Assets
Foreclosed assets are adjusted for fair value upon transfer of the loans to foreclosed assets. Subsequently, foreclosed assets are carried at the lower of carrying value and fair value. Fair value is based upon independent market prices, appraised value of the collateral or management’s estimation of the value of the value of the collateral. When the fair value of the collateral is based on an observable market price or a current appraised value, the Company records the foreclosed asset as nonrecurring Level 2. When an appraised value is not available or management determines the fair value of the collateral is further impaired below the appraised value and there is no observable market price, the Company records the foreclosed asset at nonrecurring Level 3.

7. New Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the FASB ratified the consensus reached by the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) on Issue No. 06-4, Accounting for Deferred Compensation and Postretirement Benefit Aspects of Endorsement Split-Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements. EITF 06-4 requires the recognition of a liability and related
11

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2008 AND 2007
(Continued)
compensation costs for endorsement split-dollar life insurance policies that provide a benefit to an employee that extends to postretirement periods as defined in SFAS No. 106, Employers’ Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions. The EITF reached a consensus that Bank Owned Life Insurance policies purchased for this purpose do not effectively settle the entity’s obligation to the employee in this regard and, thus, the entity must record compensation costs and a related liability. Entities should recognize the effects of applying this issue through either, (a) a change in accounting principle through a cumulative-effective adjustment to retained earnings or to other components of equity or net assets in the balance sheet as of the beginning of the year of adoption, or (b) a change in accounting principle through retrospective application to all prior periods. This issue is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007. The impact of adoption did not have a material effect on our financial condition.
In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”). This statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Implementation of SFAS 157 did not have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.
In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 159, “The Fair Value option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, Including an Amendment of FASB Statement 115” (“SFAS 159”). SFAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure eligible items at fair value at specified election dates. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. The fair value option (i) may be applied instrument by instrument, with certain exceptions, (ii) is irrevocable (unless a new election date occurs) and (iii) is applied only to entire instruments and not to portions of instruments and not to portions of instructions. SFAS 159 was effective for WSB on January 2, 2008, and did not have a material impact on WSB’s financial statements.
Pronouncements Issued But Not Yet Effective
In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement No.141, Revised 2007 (“SFAS 141R”), “Business Combination”. SFAS 141R’s objective is to improve the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial reports about a business combination and its effects. SFAS 141R applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after December 31, 2008. WSB does not expect the implementation of SFAS 141R to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement No.160, “Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statement” (“SFAS 160”). SFAS 160’s objective is to improve the relevance, comparability, and transparency of the financial information that a reporting entity provides in its consolidated financial statements by establishing accounting and reporting standards for the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. SFAS 160 shall be effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. WSB does not expect the implementation of SFAS 160 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In March 2008, FASB issued Statement No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities – an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133” (“SFAS 161”). This statement requires enhanced disclosures about an entity’s derivative and hedging activities and thereby improves the transparency of financial reporting. Entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about (a) how and why an entity uses derivative

instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under FASB Statement No.133 and its related interpretations, and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. This statement is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. WSB does not expect the implementation of SFAS 161 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In May 2008, FASB issued Statement No.163, “Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts - An interpretation of FASB Statement No. 60 (SFAS 263”). SFAS 163 requires that an insurance enterprise recognize a claim liability prior to an event of default when there is evidence that credit deterioration has occurred in an insured financial obligation. It also clarifies how FASB Statement No. 60 applies to financial guarantee insurance contracts, including the recognition and measurement to be used to account for premium revenue and claim liabilities, and requires expanded disclosures about financial guarantee insurance contracts. It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, except for some disclosures about the insurance enterprise’s risk-management activities. SFAS 163 requires that disclosures about the risk-management activities of the insurance enterprise be effective for the first period beginning after issuance. Except for those disclosures, earlier application is not permitted. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.
In May 2008, the FASB issued Statement No.162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”. This Statement identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles to be used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States (the GAAP hierarchy).
This Statement is effective 60 days following the SEC’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. SFAS 162 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
General
WSB Holdings, Inc and subsidiaries’ (“WSB”) results of operations are primarily determined by the difference between the interest income and fees earned on loans, investments and other interest-earning assets and the interest expense paid on deposits and other interest-bearing liabilities. The difference between the average yield earned on interest-earning assets, and the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities is known as net interest-rate spread. The principal expense to WSB is the interest it pays on deposits and other borrowings. The difference between interest income on interest-earning assets and interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities is referred to as net interest income. Net interest income is significantly affected by general economic conditions and by policies of state and federal regulatory authorities and the monetary policies of the Federal Reserve Board. WSB’s net income is also affected by the level of its non-interest income, including loan-related fees, deposit-based fees, rental income, operations of its service corporation subsidiary, gain on sale of real estate acquired in settlement of loans (“REO”), and gain on sale of loans, as well as its operating and tax expenses.
WSB Holdings became the holding company of the Bank as of January 3, 2008, and reports financial results on a calendar year basis (unlike the Bank’s previous fiscal year). Accordingly, results of operations and other financial data for periods prior to January 3, 2008 are for the Bank, and thereafter are for WSB Holdings on a consolidated basis.
Both basic and diluted EPS amounts are shown on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. However, “basic” earnings per share is utilized in this report’s narrative when per share amounts are listed, unless otherwise stated.
This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of and pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. A forward-looking statement encompasses any estimate, prediction, opinion or statement of belief contained in this report and the underlying management assumptions, including those identified by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “believe,” “expect,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “continue,” or similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assessments of potential developments affecting market conditions, interest rates and other economic conditions and assumptions and results may ultimately vary from the statements made in this report. WSB’s future results and prospects may be dependent upon a number of factors that could cause WSB’s performance to differ from the performance anticipated or projected in these forward-looking statement or to compare unfavorably to prior periods. Among these factors are: (a) ongoing review of WSB’s business and operations; (b) implementation of changes in lending practices and lending operations; (c) the Board of Directors ongoing review of WSB’s capital management plan; (d) changes in accounting principles; (e) government legislation and regulation; (f) changes in interests rates; (g) changes in the economy; (h) credit or other risks of lending activity; (i) the impact of any legal or regulatory proceedings; and (j) other expectations, assessments and risks that are specifically mentioned in this report, in The Washington Savings Bank’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2007 (“2007 Form 10-K”), which was attached as an appendix to our Registration Statement on Form S-4, as amended, in connection with the reorganization into a holding company structure, and in such other reports we have filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. WSB wishes to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made, and to advise readers that various factors, including those described above, could affect WSB’s financial performance and could cause WSB’s actual results or circumstances for future periods to differ materially from those anticipated or projected. Unless required by law, WSB does not undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligations to publicly update or revise any forward- looking statements to reflect occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances after the date of such statements.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgments in the application of certain of its accounting policies that involve significant estimates and assumptions about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. These estimates and assumptions are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements, and may materially impact the reported amounts of certain assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses as the information changes over time. Accordingly, different amounts could be reported as a result of the use of revised estimates and assumptions in the application of these accounting policies.
14
Table of Contents
Accounting policies considered relatively more critical due to either the subjectivity involved in the estimate and/or the potential impact that changes in the estimates can have on the reported financial results include the accounting for the allowance for loan losses. Information concerning this policy is included in the “Critical Accounting Policies” section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis in the 2007 Form 10-K. There were no significant changes in this accounting policy during the six months ending June 30, 2008.
Recent Regulatory and Related Developments
The cash dividend of four cents per share and an additional special cash dividend of two cents per share for the first quarter was declared on April 16, 2008 and paid on May 12, 2008, to stockholders of record as of May 1, 2008. The cash dividend of four cents per share for the second quarter was declared on July 16, 2008 to be paid on August 7, 2008, to stockholders of record as of July 28, 2008. The Board will continue to review WSB’s dividend practice on a quarterly basis. WSB’s subsidiary financial institution, The Washington Savings Bank (the “Bank”), continues to remain “Well Capitalized” by regulatory standards.
Upon completion of the Plan of Merger, all shares of the Bank were converted into an equal number of newly issued shares of WSB Holdings, as a result of which shareholders of the Bank became shareholders of WSB Holdings in the identical proportion as they were shareholders of the Bank immediately before the reorganization. The Bank continued to exist as a federally chartered savings bank and be managed by its then current board of directors and officers.
WSB Holdings reports on a calendar year basis. The Bank has changed its fiscal year end from July 31 to December 31 to be consistent with the year-end of WSB Holdings.
In April 2008, the Board of Directors gave the authority to management to repurchase up to 1.0 million of the outstanding shares of the company’s stock. There is no stated expiration date for the Plan. See Part II. Item 2.
Consolidated Results of Operations
Net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 was $514,000, or $0.07 per basic and $0.06 per diluted share, and $982,000 or $0.13 per basic and $0.12 per diluted share, respectively, compared to net earnings of $699,000 or $0.09 per basic and diluted share, and $1,410,000 or $0.19 per basic share and $0.17 per diluted share, respectively, for the corresponding 2007 periods. Net earnings for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2008, represent decreases of $185,000, or 26%, and $428,000, or 30% over the same periods last year.
The decrease in net income for the six month period reflects an interest rate compression mitigated in part by an overall shift from brokered deposit funding to Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) advances and reverse repurchase agreements. As such, yields on deposits increased while the average outstanding balance decreased. The decrease in net-interest income is primarily the result of a decrease in yield on earning assets and an increase in rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities. Non-interest income increased primarily as the result of an increase in the gain on sale of investment securities which offset the decrease in gain on sale of loans in secondary market and loan related fees.
As previously discussed, management continues to seek more diversity in its loan portfolio and has established commercial business and commercial real estate lending departments staffed with experienced lenders in an effort to significantly expand its nonresidential loan portfolio. This has resulted in an increase to the portfolios of commercial business and commercial real estate to commercial borrowers of $32 million during the six month period ended June 30, 2008. WSB expects to see the results of its investment in loans to commercial business and commercial real estate to commercial borrowers to continue in 2008. To expand its commercial

customer deposit base, the Bank implemented remote deposit capture services for commercial customers. This service compliments the Bank’s PC Banking platform and provides us a commercially viable means to serve the depository needs of businesses beyond our branch network. The expansion of our commercial base is significant to the profitability of the Bank in that commercial customers provide lower cost deposit funding, with commercial loan borrowings structures that reprice to interest rate changes under terms that are favorable to the Bank. This change is particularly important given the current state of the residential housing markets and WSB’s prior reliance on residential construction and mortgage origination.
Net earnings for the three and six month periods ending June 30, 2008 included gains on the sale of investment securities of approximately $259,000 pretax, $171,000 net of tax and $450,000 pretax, and $297,000 net of tax, compared to a loss on sale of investment securities of $115,000 pretax, $76,000 net of tax and $135,000 pretax and $89,000 net of tax for the same periods last year. The gain on the sale of investments was from restructuring short term investments within the Bank’s portfolio to highly-rated mortgage-backed securities in an effort to minimize reinvestment risk while improving portfolio yield. While there has been a decline in market value for the investment portfolio, the securities are either agency securities or highly rated. As of June 30, 2008, all non-agency mortgage-backed securities, the sector of the portfolio which has experienced the predominate decline in market value, remain AAA rated.
Interest Income/Expense
Total interest income decreased $119,000, or 1.7%, for the three month period ending June 30, 2008, and increased $130,000, or 0.9% for the six month period ending June 30, 2008, compared to the corresponding periods last year. The decrease and increase for the three and six month period is due to the reflective decrease and increase applicable in the average volume of interest-earning assets for the comparable periods.
The average six-month balance of interest-earning assets increased to $434.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 from $404.2 million as of June 30, 2007, due primarily to an increase in the loans held-for-investment portfolio and mortgage-backed securities, offsetting the decrease in investment securities. The average yield on interest-earning assets decreased to 6.42% from 6.82%. Short-term investment securities that were called or matured were reinvested in mortgage-backed securities, consistent with a savings and loan association charter. The investment in short- term securities was being used to maintain liquidity for future loan growth as we restructured the existing loan portfolio under the business plan with a transition into a more diversified loan portfolio with lower credit risk.
Total interest expense increased $265,000, or 7.2%, and $677,000, or 9.3%, respectively, for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2008 compared to the same periods in the prior year. The increase was attributable to an increase in the average volume and average interest rate on WSB’s interest-bearing liabilities. For the six month period ended June 30, 2008, WSB’s average interest-bearing liabilities were $390.7 million with an average rate of 4.08%, compared to $359.7 million with an average rate of 4.06%, for the corresponding period last fiscal year.
Net interest income decreased $384,000, or 11.6%, and $548,000, or 8.4%, respectively, for the three and six month periods three month period ended June 30, 2008, compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year. Due to a lower average return on WSB’s interest-earning assets, and a higher average cost of WSB’s interest-bearing liabilities, WSB’s net interest rate spread decreased to 2.76% for the six month period ended June 30, 2008 from 3.23% for the same period in the prior fiscal year. The ratio of WSB’s interest-earning assets to interest-bearing liabilities as of June 30, 2008 decreased to 111.17% compared to 112.38% as of June 30, 2007.
During this period of economic slowdown management continues to stress credit quality within both its loan and investment portfolios. Management continues with its diversification of WSB’s loan portfolio from residential lending into commercial real estate and commercial and industrial (more commonly referred to as business
16
Table of Contents
lending). Management believes that this diversification will be both appropriate and beneficial in dealing with interest rate spread compression and portfolio risk management. However, these changes continue to be significantly hampered by the current economic slow down.
WSB has significantly expanded its commercial loans and commercial real estate loans. Commercial loans and commercial real estate loans have increased to $100.6 million as of June 30, 2008, compared to $43.9 million as of June 30, 2007.
WSB is currently experiencing a compression of its interest rate margins due to a slowing demand for loans and lower yields on loan originations and investment security offerings. This lower interest rate environment for loans and investment securities compresses the interest rate spread by reducing interest income. The continued decline of prevailing rates on fixed rate deposits and Federal Home Loan Bank advance funding structures will be favorable to WSB as existing fixed rate instruments re-price to lower market rates reducing interest expense.
Interest rate margins will be further enhanced when economic conditions begin to become more favorable to lending and funds currently held in investment securities can be redirected back into the loan portfolio.
Allowance for Loan Losses
WSB’s loan portfolio is subject to varying degrees of credit risk. Credit risk is mitigated through portfolio diversification, and limiting exposure to any single customer or industry. WSB maintains an allowance for loan losses (the “allowance”) to absorb losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The allowance is based on careful, continuous review and evaluation of the loan portfolio, along with ongoing, quarterly assessments of the probable losses inherent in that portfolio. The methodology for assessing the appropriateness of the allowance includes: (1) a formula allowance reflecting historical losses by credit category, (2) the specific allowance for risk rated credits on an individual or portfolio basis, and (3) a nonspecific allowance which considers risk factors not taken into factor by the other two components of the methodology. The amount of the allowance is reviewed monthly by WSB’s Loan Committee, and reviewed and approved monthly by the Board of Directors.
The allowance is increased by provisions for loan losses, which are an expense. Charge-offs of loan amounts determined by management to be uncollectible or impaired decrease the allowance, while recoveries of loans previously charged-off are added back to the allowance. WSB makes provisions for loan losses in amounts necessary to maintain the allowance at an appropriate level, as established by use of the allowance methodology.
Under the methodology, WSB considers trends in credit risk against broad categories of homogenous loans, as well as a loan by loan review of loans criticized or classified by management. Classified loans exceeding $300,000 are individually evaluated quarterly as part of the calculation of the adequacy of the allowance.
Management continues to see favorable developments in many of its previously internally criticized loans, as many such loans have been refinanced out of the Bank or have seen credit enhancements secured from borrowers to better position the Bank as to the collateral value securing outstanding loans. WSB has experienced an increase in the commercial real estate and commercial lending portfolio, which management uses a higher reserve factor than traditional mortgages. The allowance for loans losses is very subjective in nature, relying significantly on historical loss experience, collateral valuations available to management on specific loans, and economic factors deemed to exist at quarter end affecting the inherent loss within the portfolio. Management believes the current allowance is appropriate. While significant progress has been made addressing management’s assessment as to the inherent risk within the portfolio, the slowing real estate market, especially as it pertains to custom high-end residential properties merits the existing allowance level, and therefore, no provision was made during the period ending June 30, 2008.

Table of Contents
During the six months ended June 30, 2008, the allowance decreased in net by $552,000 or 13%, to $3.7 million from $4.2 million at December 31, 2007, as a result of net charge-offs of $552,000. At June 30, 2008, the allowance was 1.59% of total loans held-for-investment, compared to 1.85% of total loans held-for-investment, at December 31, 2007.
WSB has experienced a reduction in its mortgage loan portfolio which, combined with payoffs and/or credit enhancements of previously internally criticized loans, has resulted in a lower level of inherent probable loss.
Assets subject to WSB’s Loan Committee criticism include loans which meet the sub-standard criteria due to collateral deficiencies that may reflect possible losses. Based on the review of the individual loans involved, management estimates probable losses. Management continues to assess the probable losses as new and relevant data is obtained.
Management believes that the allowance reflects its best estimate of the losses existing in the $230.3 million loans-held for investment portfolio as of June 30, 2008. The $6.1 million loan held-for-sale portfolio has been committed to be purchased by investors at June 30, 2008 and will be settled subsequent to that date.
WSB’s determination of the adequacy of the allowance requires significant judgment, and estimates of probable losses inherent in the loans held-for-investment portfolio can vary significantly from the amounts actually observed. See Critical Accounting Policies in the 2007 Form 10-K. While management uses available information to recognize probable losses, future additions to the allowance may be necessary based on changes in the credits comprising the portfolios, changes in the financial condition of borrowers, such as may result from changes in economic conditions, or other considerations determined by management to be appropriate.
In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the loan portfolio and the allowance. Such review may result in additional provisions based upon their judgments of information available at the time of each examination.
Management has developed a comprehensive review process to monitor the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. The review process and guidelines were developed utilizing guidance from federal banking regulatory agencies and relies on relevant observable data. The observable data considered in the determination of the allowance is modified as more relevant data becomes available. The results of this review process support management’s view that the allowance reflects probable losses within the loan portfolio as of June 30, 2008.
Changes in the estimation valuations may take place based on the status of the economy and the estimate of the value of the property securing loans, and as a result, the allowance may increase or decrease. Future adjustments could substantially affect the amount of the allowance.
The following occurred during the six months ending June 30, 2008:
· WSB experienced defaults in 1-4 family residential loans of approximately $149,000.
· WSB experienced defaults in lot loans of approximately $310,000.
· WSB experienced defaults in consumer loans of approximately $7,000.
· Traditional reserve levels in commercial and commercial real estate lending have been established. While significant growth has occurred in commercial and commercial real estate portfolio, WSB has experienced only $86,000 in defaults as of June 30, 2008. Such favorable trends reduce reserve experience factors as to the calculation of the allowance.
· As a result of an analysis of its current portfolio, WSB has recognized a decrease of the loss allocation percentages to internally classified loans. This decrease is due to a significant runoff that has been experienced in internally classified loans. A result of this runoff has been a corresponding reduction in the specific allocations for loss exposure.

Management believes its evaluation as to the adequacy of the allowance as of June 30, 2008 is appropriate, and cautions the reader that the provisioning for the six month period is not necessarily indicative of future provisioning. Subjective judgment is significant in the determination of the provision and allowance for loan losses, manifested in the valuation of collateral, a borrower’s prospects of repayment, and in establishing allowance factors and components for the formula allowance for homogeneous loans. The establishment of allowance factors is a continuing exercise, based on management’s assessment of the factors and their impact on the portfolio, and that allowance factors may change from period to period, resulting in an increase or decrease in the amount of the provision or allowance, based upon the same volume and classification of loans. A time lag between the recognition of loss exposure in the evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance and a loan’s ultimate resolution and or charge-off is normal and to be expected. See above for discussion of some of the factors that have had a significant impact in the evaluation of the adequacy of WSB’s allowance for loan losses.
WSB has experienced noticeable change in its loan portfolio during the period cover by this report, which was observed in management’s analysis of the adequacy of the allowance for loan loss during the period, and at period end.
Management reviews monthly the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, and provisions accordingly to meet the deemed losses within the portfolio. For a better understanding and a more complete description of the allowance and the evaluation process, refer to the 2007 Form 10-K.
WSB, as shown below in tabular format, has seen an increase of charge-offs compared to the comparable period last year. While there has been a decrease in loan charge-offs, we believe there are additional, unidentified, probable losses within the portfolio, which may be reflected as charge-offs against the allowance in future quarters, as these losses manifest themselves and loan collection efforts continue.

Allowance to total loans held for investment at period end | | 1.59 | % | 1.62 | % | 2.13 | % | 2.11 | % |
At June 30, 2008, total non-performing loans were $12.6 million, or 5.58%, of which included non-accrual loans of $11.0 million and $1.6 million in accruing loans, which were contractually past due more than four months, but with current positions deemed to fully support recovery of principal and interest, or 5.58% of total loans held for investment, compared to $11.6 million, or 5.07%, of total loans held-for-investment, at December 31, 2007. The allowance is approximately 33.0% of non-accrual loans, versus 36.5% at December 31, 2007. Significant variation in this ratio may occur from period to period because the amount of non-performing loans depends largely on the condition of a small number of individual credits and borrowers relative to the total loan and lease portfolio.
Increased court caseloads have already resulted in delays in ratification of foreclosure sale actions by the courts effecting mortgage lenders, including WSB. This has resulted in both a lengthening of the curing time for delinquent loans and an increase in non-performing asset levels. Recent Maryland legislation intended to provide extended notice periods and other protections to defaulting mortgagors will further delay the resolution of defaulting loans secured by residential properties, both owner and non-owner occupied. Management continues its previous practice of working with borrowers to resolve delinquencies, with foreclosure action being the remedy of last resort when reasonable means to cure deficiencies in the best interest of both the bank and borrower, consistent with sound banking considerations, are exhausted.

While WSB did not actively participate in “subprime” lending, it may be affected by proposed national legislation which addresses “subprime” borrowers and lenders. If adopted, this legislation may have a negative impact on other areas of residential real estate lending and default resolution, further decreasing real estate values.
While there has been a slight decrease in non-accruals since December 31, 2007, there is not a direct relationship between the discontinuation of interest accrual and the level of inherent risk of loss associated with those loans or the portfolio. While there has been an increase in non-performing assets, and charge-offs, management believes this is a normal transition of loans previously identified as classified loans, which had appropriate reserves established. This prior recognition and provision has resulted in no additional provisioning being necessary as these credits progressed in the collection process to their current positions; with management believing the current level of reserves are both adequate and appropriate.
Non-Interest Income
Total non-interest income increased $195,000, or 30.1%, and $103,000, or 6.8% for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2008, compared to the same periods in the prior year. The increase for the three and six month periods is attributable to a increase in the gain on sale of investments, which offset the decrease in gain on sale of loans and loan related fees.
Gain on the sale of loans decreased $106,000, or 42.3% and $287,000, or 58.1% for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2008 as compared to the same periods last year due a reduction of loans and lower premiums associated with loans sold in the secondary market. WSB’s ability to realize gains in future periods depends largely on interest rates and the demand for mortgage loans.
While production of loans held-for-sale has been negatively impacted nationally by the current market constriction as to non-conforming and non-traditional mortgage offerings, and overall credit tightening, the Bank continues to offer traditional mortgage financing through its mortgage banking operations. The Bank continues to monitor the anticipated negative impact and/or exposure of many of the larger secondary market investors, and as such has further reduced or eliminated the selling of loans to investors where liquidity or financial capacity is in question.
The decrease on the gain on sale of real estate acquired in settlement of loans is the result of the gain on sale of ten properties in which WSB recorded a net gain of $94,000 at June 30, 2008 compared to the net gain of $211,000 recorded on the sale of twelve properties at June 30, 2007.
Gain on sale of investment securities resulted in approximately $259,000 pretax, $171,000 net of tax for the three months ended June 30, 2008, and $450,000 pretax, $297,000 net of tax for the six months ended June 30, 2008, compared to a loss on sale of investment securities of $115,000 pretax, $76,000 net of tax and $135,000 pretax, and $89,000 net of tax for the same periods last year. The gain on the sale of investments was taken in restructuring short term investments within the Bank’s portfolio to mortgage-backed securities in an effort to minimize reinvestment risk while improving portfolio yield.
Non-Interest Expenses
Non-interest expenses increased $82,000, or 2.8% and $273,000, or 4.6% for the three and six month periods ending June 30, 2008, as compared to the corresponding prior fiscal year period.
The increase in non-interest expenses for the three month period ended June 30, 2008 compared to the same period last year was primarily due to increases of $80,000 in professional fees and $76,000 in other expenses, offset by a decrease of $59,000 in salaries and benefits. The increase in non-interest expenses for the six month
20
Table of Contents
period ending June 30, 2008 compared to the same period last year was primarily due to increases of $217,000 in professional fees, $214,000 in other expense and $35,000 in advertising offset by decrease of $163,000 in salaries and benefits.
Professional services increased for the six month period ended June 30, 2008 compared to the equivalent period during the prior fiscal year due to a first fiscal quarter 2007 litigation settlement that resulted in an expense accrual reversal and the current year’s quarter’s fees associated with pending litigation on tax issues (see Part II, Item 1). The increase in other expenses for the three and six month periods ending June 30, 2008 is primarily the result of costs associated with foreclosure of loans and expenses associated with WSB’s stock being listed on The NASDAQ Global Market and the holding company re-organization. The increase in advertising for the three month period ending June 30, 2008 is the result of an advertising campaign to promote WSB products to increase customer base.
The decrease in salaries and benefits is the result of the reduced loan production on loans sold in the secondary market and the commissions associated with these loans. With the slow down in the local and national economies the Bank has closed its wholesale mortgage lending operation, as well as all retail mortgage offices except for the Bowie office, and continues to reduce staffing wherever appropriate. These expense reductions are expected to continue to benefit the company in the future quarters.
Income Taxes
The effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was 28.5% compared to 32.6% for the same period last year. The decrease compared to last year is the result of a higher percentage of income attributable to WSB’s investments portfolio of which a significant portion is not subject to Maryland state taxes and the exclusion of income for the bank owned life insurance.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Total assets were $453.4 million and $453.4 million at June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively. Although assets remained stable at June 30, 2008, compared to December 31, 2007, WSB had an increase in the available for sale MBS portfolio and federal funds sold, partially offset by a decrease in the available for sale investment securities portfolio.
Deposits were $262.4 million at June 30, 2008, compared to $274.6 million at December 31, 2007. The decrease in deposits at June 30, 2008, compared to December 31, 2007, was primarily due to a decrease in our certificates of deposit, offset partially an by increase in money fund accounts. During this period, WSB’s rates on money fund accounts were slightly higher than its competitors, but lower certificate of deposit rates negatively affected renewals for certificates of deposit. Management anticipates continuing to utilize excess funding liquidity to offset a runoff of higher cost certificates of deposit which were previously originated to fund loan production.
Borrowings at June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007 are as follows:
| | Balance as of | |
| | June 30, | | | | December 31, | | | |
| | 2008 | | Rate | | 2007 | | Rate | |
| | | | | | | | | |

| | $ | 127,000,000 | | | | $ | 112,800,000 | | | |
At December 31, 2007, WSB had a total of $92.8 million in borrowed funds consisting of FHLB advances. During the first quarter of fiscal 2008, WSB repaid the $8.8 million daily rate credit FHLB advance, a FHLB

Table of Contents
advance of $5.0 million with a fixed rate of 5.21% matured, and a FHLB advance of $5.0 million with a fixed rate of 3.81%. WSB took an additional FHLB advance of $20.0 million with a fixed rate of 3.2025%. WSB took an additional FHLB daily rate credit advance of $3.0 million during the three month period ending June 30, 2008, bringing the balance to $97.0 million.
At December 31, 2007, WSB had a total of $20.0 million at 3.90% in a structured repurchase agreement. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2008, WSB purchased from a counter-party a $10.0 million structured repurchase agreement at 3.65%, bringing the balance of structured repurchase agreements to $30.0 million.
Total borrowings are $127.0 million as of June 30, 2008. WSB maintains funding activities with correspondent banks and the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta, which are cancelable by the lender and subject to lender discretion. To the extent WSB does not or can not use FHLB borrowings, it would rely on alternative funding sources, including its depositor base and correspondent bank lines of credit.
WSB continually seeks to increase its core deposits and advertises its lower-cost NOW accounts, no fee checking incentives, an overdraft protection program, variable money fund savings account priced to current interest rates, and the advantages of customer access to ATM networks. To expand its commercial customer deposit base, the Bank recently implemented remote deposit capture services for commercial customers. This service complements the Bank’s PC Banking platform and allows us a commercially viable means to serve the depository needs of businesses beyond our branch network.
As a member of the FHLB system, and in order to maintain insurance with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”), the Bank must maintain average daily balances of long-term liquid assets of not less than 4% of the average daily balance of its liquidity base (net withdrawable savings accounts and borrowings during the preceding calendar month which are payable within one year). Liquid assets are defined as cash, Federal Reserve deposits, time and savings deposits in certain institutions, obligations of states and political subdivisions thereof, highly rated corporate debt, mortgage loans and mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”), and accrued interest receivable and principal on certain qualified unpledged assets, payable within five years. Internal sources of liquidity used by the Bank are various short-term investments, mortgage-backed securities, and short-term borrowings. During June 2008, the Bank’s long-term average daily balances of liquid assets were $129.5 million, which exceeded the $11.2 million required.
Current regulations require subsidiaries of an institution to be separately capitalized and require investments in and extensions of credit to any subsidiary engaged in activities not permissible for a bank to be deducted in the computation of an institution’s regulatory capital. The Bank’s regulatory capital and regulatory assets below also reflect increases of $1.7 million and $2.6 million, respectively, which represents unrealized losses (after-tax for capital deductions and pre-tax for asset deductions, respectively) on MBS and investment securities classified as available for sale. In addition, the Bank’s risk-based capital reflects an increase of $2.6 million in the general loan loss reserve. The loan loss reserve factor represents 1.25% of the Bank’s risk- weighted assets. The following table shows regulatory thrift capital ratios required, the Bank’s actual ratios, and the amount by which the Bank’s ratios exceed required capital ratios, as of June 30, 2008.

WSB’s management believes that, under current regulations, and eliminating the assets of WSB Holdings, the Bank remains well capitalized and will continue to meet its minimum capital requirements in the foreseeable future. However, events beyond the control of WSB, such as a shift in interest rates or a downturn in the economy in areas where WSB extends credit, could adversely affect future earnings and, consequently, the ability of the Bank to meet its future minimum capital requirements.
Cash dividends are subject to determination and declaration by the Board of Directors, which takes into account WSB’s financial condition, results of operations, tax considerations, industry standards, economic conditions, and other factors, including regulatory restrictions. However, the ability of WSB to pay quarterly cash dividends will be dependent on earnings, financial condition and the results of operations of WSB, as well as other factors, such as regulatory requirements. Cash dividends that are declared are paid in a subsequent quarter.
For a discussion of the regulatory restrictions on the declaration and payment of dividends, see “Business—Supervision and Regulation—Restrictions on Capital Distributions” included in the Registration Statement on Form S-4, as amended filed with the SEC, in connection with the holding company reorganization. The third fiscal quarter cash dividend of four cents per share was paid on August 7, 2008 to stockholders of record as of July 28, 2008. The Board will continue to review WSB’s dividend practice on a quarterly basis. WSB continues to remain “Well Capitalized” by regulatory standards.
The Qualified Thrift Lender (“QTL”) Test currently requires that “qualified thrift investments” be at least 65% of portfolio assets as defined by the OTS. At June 30, 2008, the Bank’s ratio was approximately 95% of defined portfolio assets.
Off Balance Sheet Transactions
WSB is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk including commitments to extend credit under existing lines of credit and commitments to sell loans. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated Statement of Financial Condition.
Off-balance sheet financial instruments whose contract amounts represent credit and interest rate risk are summarized as follows:
Commitments to originate new loans | | $ | 12,636,426 | |
Unfunded commitments to extend credit under existing construction, equity line and commercial lines of credit | | 30,580,194 | |
Standby letters of credit | | 1,099,134 | |
Commitments to sell loans held-for-sale | | 6,061,291 | |
WSB does not have any unconsolidated special purpose entities or other similar forms of off-balance sheet financing arrangements.
Commitments to originate new loans or to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Loan commitments generally expire within 90 days. Most equity line commitments for the unfunded portion of equity lines are for a term of 12 months, and commercial lines of credit are generally renewable on an annual basis. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. WSB evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by WSB upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the borrower.

Commitments to sell loans held-for-sale are agreements to sell loans to third parties at an agreed upon price.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Management of WSB considers interest rate risk (“IRR”) and credit risk as the two most significant factors impacting WSB’s financial performance. WSB currently utilizes no derivatives to mitigate its credit risk, relying instead on loan review and an adequate loan loss allowance. WSB’s exposure to IRR is reviewed on at least a quarterly basis by the Board of Directors and management, and is measured by the Bank in accordance with OTS Thrift Bulletin No. 13a using interest rate risk sensitivity analysis, including Net Portfolio Value (“NPV”) and net interest income under various rate scenarios.
The OTS provides all institutions that file the Consolidated Maturity Rate Schedule (“CMR”) as part of their quarterly thrift financial report with an interest rate sensitivity report of NPV on a calendar quarter basis. The NPV is defined as the netting of the present value of expected cash flows related to existing assets and liabilities and off-balance sheet contracts. In addition to the discounted cash flow analysis, the OTS simulator model also employs an option-based pricing approach to measuring the interest rate sensitivity of the NPV. Per the OTS interest rate risk exposure report, the Bank’s sensitivity measure, or decline in the NPV ratio, at March 31, 2008 was a minimal 155 basis points, compared to 219 basis points at December 31, 2007. The Bank relies on the OTS model and does not prepare its own model.
The following table compares the calculated estimates of change in NPV and net interest income as of December 31, 2007 (the most recent data available) to current limits established by management and approved by the Board of Directors.
| | Percentage Change In | |
| | Net Interest Income | | Net Portfolio Value as a % of PV of Assets | |
Basis Point Change In Market Rates | | Board Limits | | Projected Change | | Minimum Board Limits | | OTS Projections | |
+200 | | -30 | % | +28 | % | 6 | % | 9 | % |
- 100 | | -30 | % | -14 | % | 10 | % | 10 | % |
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
WSB’s management, under the supervision and with the participation of WSB’s Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of WSB’s disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d – 15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, WSB’s Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that WSB’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely

alerting them to material information which is required to be included in the reports it is required to file with the Security and Exchange Commission.
During the period covered by the report, there were no changes (including corrective actions with regard to significant or material weaknesses) in WSB’s internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect WSB’s internal controls over financial reporting.
PART II.
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
On April 6, 2006, the Internal Revenue Service issued a notice attributable to the disallowance of a conservation easement charitable donation. On May 8, 2006, the Bank filed a timely Protest appealing an Internal Revenue Service proposed adjustment on the valuation of the conservation easement donated to the Maryland Environmental Trust. The Bank maintains that it complied with the statutory requirements of 26 U.S.C. §170(h). Based on relevant statutory provisions, regulations and case law, WSB believes the Bank will be successful in establishing that it complied with and satisfied the applicable rules and regulations and therefore, is entitled to a charitable conservation easement donation. The courts have traditionally resolved valuation disputes by reaching a middle ground between the competing values as proposed by the Internal Revenue Service and the taxpayer. Therefore, at this time, we are unable to determine whether or to what extent WSB’s valuation of the conservation easement will be sustained, however in accordance with FIN 48 described below, an accrual recognition was made during the period ending December 31, 2007.
The cumulative effect of applying FIN 48 is to be reported as an adjustment to the beginning balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. WSB adopted FIN 48 in the transition five month period ending December 31, 2007 and made a cumulative adjustment reducing retained earnings by approximately $470,000, which management does not believe is of a material impact on its financial statements. The full value of unrecognized tax benefits is $501,662 at June 30, 2008.
In addition, from time to time, WSB is a party to litigation or administrative proceedings relating to claims arising from its operations in the normal course of business. Management believes that the ultimate resolution of any such litigation or administrative proceedings currently pending against WSB is unlikely, either individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on WSB’s results of operations or financial condition.
