STANDARD FINANCIAL CORP.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (UNAUDITED)

December 31, 2011

(1) Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Standard Financial Corp. (the “Company”) and its direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, Standard Bank, PaSB (the “Bank”), and Westmoreland Investment Company. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

(2) Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with instructions to Form 10-Q, and therefore, do not include information or footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. All adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments), which, in the opinion of management are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements and to make the financial statements not misleading have been included. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011. The results for the three month period ended December 31, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2012 or any future interim period.

Certain amounts in the 2011 financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the 2012 presentation format. These reclassifications had no effect on stockholders’ equity or net income.

(3) Comprehensive Loss

Recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses are included in net income. However, certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities, are reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity in the Statements of Financial Condition. Such items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income. The components of other comprehensive income (loss) and related tax effects for the three months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 are as follows (dollars in thousands):

	Three Months Ended
	December 31, 2011			December 31, 2010
Unrealized holding loss on available-for-sale securities	$	(340	)	$	(1,794	)
Reclassification adjustment for gains realized in income		(52	)		(2	)
Net unrealized loss		(392	)		(1,796	)
Income tax benefit		133			611
Net of Tax Amount	$	(259	)	$	(1,185	)

(4) Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-10,Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Derecognition of in Substance Real Estate-a Scope Clarification. The amendments in this Update affect entities that cease to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary that is in substance real estate as a result of default on the subsidiary’s nonrecourse debt. Under the amendments in this Update, when a parent (reporting entity) ceases to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary that is in substance real estate as a result of default on the subsidiary’s nonrecourse debt, the reporting entity should apply the guidance in Subtopic 360-20 to determine whether it should derecognize the in substance real estate. Generally, a reporting entity would not satisfy the requirements to derecognize the in substance real estate before the legal transfer of the real estate to the lender and the extinguishment of the related nonrecourse indebtedness. That is, even if the reporting entity ceases to have a controlling financial interest under Subtopic 810-10, the reporting entity would continue to include the real estate, debt, and the results of the subsidiary’s operations in its consolidated financial statements until legal title to the real estate is transferred to legally satisfy the debt. The amendments in this Update should be applied on a prospective basis to deconsolidation events occurring after the effective date. Prior periods should not be adjusted even if the reporting entity has continuing involvement with previously derecognized in substance real estate entities. For public entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after June 15, 2012. For nonpublic entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2013, and interim and annual periods thereafter. Early adoption is permitted. This ASU is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

(4) Recent Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-11,Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. The amendments in this Update affect all entities that have financial instruments and derivative instruments that are either (1) offset in accordance with either Section 210-20-45 or Section 815-10-45 or (2) subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement. The requirements amend the disclosure requirements on offsetting in Section 210-20-50. This information will enable users of an entity’s financial statements to evaluate the effect or potential effect of netting arrangements on an entity’s financial position, including the effect or potential effect of rights of setoff associated with certain financial instruments and derivative instruments in the scope of this Update. An entity is required to apply the amendments for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. An entity should provide the disclosures required by those amendments retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. This ASU is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-12,Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05. In order to defer only those changes in Update 2011-05 that relate to the presentation of reclassification adjustments, the paragraphs in this Update supersede certain pending paragraphs in Update 2011-05. Entities should continue to report reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income consistent with the presentation requirements in effect before Update 2011-05. All other requirements in Update 2011-05 are not affected by this Update, including the requirement to report comprehensive income either in a single continuous financial statement or in two separate but consecutive financial statements. Public entities should apply these requirements for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. Nonpublic entities should begin applying these requirements for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2012, and interim and annual periods thereafter. This ASU is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

(5) Investment Securities (Continued)

During the three months ended December 31, 2011, gains on sales of investment securities were $52,000 and proceeds from such sales were $6.1 million. During the three months ended December 31, 2010, gains on sales of investment securities were $2,000 and proceeds from such sales were $4,000.

The following table shows the fair value and gross unrealized losses on investment securities and the length of time that the securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position at December 31, 2011 and at September 30, 2011 (dollars in thousands):

	December 31, 2011

Total Temporarily Impaired Securities	$	2,018	$	(83	)	$	3,936	$	(144	)	$	5,954	$	(227	)
						��

At December 31, 2011 and September 30, 2011, the Company held 11 and 16, respectively, securities in an unrealized loss position. The decline in the fair value of these securities resulted primarily from interest rate fluctuations. The Company does not intend to sell these securities nor is it more likely than not that the Company would be required to sell these securities before its anticipated recovery, and the Company believes the collection of the investment and related interest is probable. Based on the above, the Company considers all of the unrealized losses to be temporary impairment losses.

At December 31, 2011 and September 30, 2011, the Company held 4 and 3, respectively, mortgage-backed securities in an unrealized loss position. The decline in the fair value of these securities resulted primarily from interest rate fluctuations. The Company does not intend to sell these securities nor is it more likely than not that the Company would be required to sell these securities before its anticipated recovery, and the Company believes the collection of the investment and related interest is probable. Based on the above, the Company considers all of the unrealized losses to be temporary impairment losses.

Mortgage-backed securities with a carrying value of $23.0 million and $25.1 million were pledged to secure repurchase agreements and public fund accounts at December 31, 2011 and at September 30, 2011, respectively.

The segments of the Bank’s loan portfolio are disaggregated to a level that allows management to monitor risk and performance. Real estate loans are disaggregated into three categories which include one-to-four family residential (including residential construction loans), commercial real estate (which are primarily first liens) and home equity loans and lines of credit (which are generally second liens). The commercial loan segment consists of loans made for the purpose of financing the activities of commercial customers. Other loans consist of automobile loans, consumer loans and loans secured by savings accounts.

Management evaluates individual loans in the commercial and commercial real estate loan segments for possible impairment if the loan is in nonaccrual status or is risk rated Substandard, Doubtful or Loss and is greater than 90 days past due. Loans are considered to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Bank will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in evaluating impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. The Company does not separately evaluate individual consumer and residential real estate loans for impairment, unless such loans are part of larger relationship that is impaired, or are classified as a troubled debt restructuring agreement. Once the determination has been made that a loan is impaired, the determination of whether a specific allocation of the allowance is necessary is measured by comparing the recorded investment in the loan to the fair value of the loan using one of three methods: (a) the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate; (b) the loan’s observable market price; or (c) the fair value of the collateral less selling costs. The method is selected on a loan by loan basis, with management primarily utilizing the fair value of collateral method. The evaluation of the need and amount of a specific allocation of the allowance and whether a loan can be removed from impairment status is made on a quarterly basis. The Company’s policy for recognizing interest income on impaired loans does not differ from its overall policy for interest recognition. There were no loans considered to be a troubled debt restructuring at December 31, 2011 and September 30, 2011.

The loan rating categories utilized by management generally follow bank regulatory definitions. The special mention category includes assets that are currently protected but are potentially weak, resulting in an undue and unwarranted credit risk, but not to the point of justifying a substandard classification. Loans in the substandard category have well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt, and have a distinct possibility that some loss will be sustained if the weaknesses are not corrected. All loans greater than 90 days past due are considered substandard. Assets classified as doubtful have all of the weaknesses inherent in those classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. Assets (or portions of assets) classified as loss are those considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as assets is not warranted and are charged off against the loan loss allowance. The pass category includes all loans not considered special mention, substandard, doubtful or loss.

To help ensure that risk ratings are accurate and reflect the present and future capacity of borrowers to repay a loan as agreed, the Bank has a structured loan rating process with several layers of internal and external oversight. Generally, consumer and residential real estate loans are included in the pass categories unless a specific action, such as delinquency, bankruptcy, repossession, or death occurs to raise awareness of a possible credit event. The Bank’s commercial loan officers are responsible for the timely and accurate risk rating of the loans in their portfolios at origination and on an ongoing basis. An annual loan review is performed for all commercial real estate and commercial loans for all commercial relationships greater than $500,000. The Bank engages an external consultant to conduct loan reviews on at least an annual basis. Generally, the external consultant reviews commercial relationships greater than $500,000 and all criticized relationships. Loans in the special mention, substandard or doubtful categories that are collectively evaluated for impairment are given separate consideration in the determination of the loan loss allowance.

The following table presents the classes of the loan portfolio summarized by the aggregate pass and the criticized categories of special mention, substandard and doubtful within the internal risk rating system as of December 31, 2011 and September 30, 2011 (dollars in thousands):

An allowance for loan losses (“ALL”) is maintained to absorb losses from the loan portfolio. The ALL is based on management’s continuing evaluation of the risk characteristics and credit quality of the loan portfolio, assessment of current economic conditions, diversification and size of the portfolio, adequacy of collateral, past and anticipated loss experience, and the amount of non-performing loans.

Loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment are analyzed with general allowances being made as appropriate. For general allowances, historical loss trends are used in the estimation of losses in the current portfolio. These historical loss amounts are modified by other qualitative factors. Management tracks the historical net charge-off activity for the loan segments which may be adjusted for qualitative factors. Pass rated credits are segregated from criticized credits for the application of qualitative factors. Loans in the criticized pools, which possess certain qualities or characteristics that may lead to collection and loss issues, are closely monitored by management and subject to additional qualitative factors.

Management has identified a number of additional qualitative factors which it uses to supplement the historical charge-off factor because these factors are likely to cause estimated credit losses associated with the existing loan pools to differ from historical loss experience. The additional factors are evaluated using information obtained from internal, regulatory, and governmental sources such as national and local economic trends and conditions; levels of and trends in delinquency rates and non-accrual loans; trends in volumes and terms of loans; effects of changes in lending policies; value of underlying collateral; and concentrations of credit from a loan type, industry and/or geographic standpoint. Management reviews the loan portfolio on a quarterly basis using a defined, consistently applied process in order to make appropriate and timely adjustments to the ALL. When information confirms all or part of specific loans to be uncollectible, these amounts are promptly charged off against the ALL. Management utilizes an internally developed spreadsheet to track and apply the various components of the allowance.

The ALL is based on estimates and actual losses will vary from current estimates. Management believes that the granularity of the homogeneous pools and the related historical loss ratios and other qualitative factors, as well as the consistency in the application of assumptions, result in an ALL that is representative of the risk found in the components of the loan portfolio at any given date.

(8) – Contribution to Standard Charitable Foundation

The Company made a $1.4 million one-time contribution to Standard Charitable Foundation during the quarter ended December 31, 2010 in connection with its stock conversion. This contribution represented $1.2 million or 3.5% of the stock issued on October 6, 2010 and $200,000 in cash. The after tax impact on net income of this one-time contribution was net expense of $908,000 (net of income tax benefit of $468,000).

(9) – Employee Stock Ownership Plan

The Company established a tax qualified Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”) for the benefit of its employees in conjunction with the stock conversion on October 6, 2010. Eligible employees begin to participate in the plan after one year of service and become 20% vested in their accounts after two years of service, 40% after three years of service, 60% after four years of service, 80% after five years of service and 100% after six years of service or, if earlier, upon death, disability or attainment of normal retirement age.

In connection with the stock conversion, the purchase of the 278,254 shares of the Company stock by the ESOP was funded by a loan from the Company through the Bank. Unreleased ESOP shares collateralize the loan payable, and the cost of the shares is recorded as a contra-equity account in the stockholders’ equity of the Company. Shares are released as debt payments are made by the ESOP to the loan. The ESOP’s sources of repayment of the loan can include dividends, if any, on the unallocated stock held by the ESOP and discretionary contributions from the Company to the ESOP and earnings thereon.

Compensation is recognized under the shares released method and compensation expense is equal to the fair value of the shares committed to be released and unallocated ESOP shares are excluded from outstanding shares for purposes of computing EPS. Compensation expense related to the ESOP of $54,000 and $50,000 was recognized during the quarters ended December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

As of December 31, 2011, the ESOP held a total of 278,254 shares of the Company’s stock, and there were 260,186 unallocated shares. The fair market value of the unallocated ESOP shares was $4.0 million at December 31, 2011.

(10) – Fair Value Measurements

The Company provides disclosures about assets and liabilities carried at fair value. The framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The three broad levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

Level I:	Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices are available for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company has the ability to access.
Level II:	Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by corroborated or other means. If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the Level II input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level III:	Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

Fair values for U.S. government and agency obligations, corporate bonds, municipal obligations and mortgage-backed securities are valued at valued at observable market data for similar assets. Equity securities are valued at the closing price reported on the active market on which the individual securities are traded.

(11) – Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the statement of financial condition, is required for which it is practicable to estimate that value. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. In that regard, the derived fair value estimates cannot be sustained by comparison of independent markets and, in many cases, could not be realized in immediate settlement of the instrument. Certain financial instruments and all nonfinancial instruments are excluded from disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts do not represent the underlying value of the Company. The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated statements of financial condition approximate fair value for the following financial instruments: cash on hand and due from banks, interest-earning deposits in other institutions, Federal Home Loan Bank stock, accrued interest receivable, bank-owned life insurance, and accrued interest payable.

Fair values for investment securities and mortgage-backed securities are based on quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments with similar credit, maturity, and interest rate characteristics. The fair values for one-to-four-family and other residential loans are estimated using current market inputs at which loans with similar terms and qualities would be made to borrowers of similar credit quality. Where quoted prices were available, such market rates were utilized. The carrying amount of construction loans approximates its fair value given their short-term nature. The fair values of loans secured by savings accounts, consumer loans, second mortgage loans, automobile, home equity, commercial loans, and loans for real estate sold on contract are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using interest rates currently being offered for loans in the current market with similar terms to borrowers of similar creditworthiness. The estimated fair value of nonperforming loans is the “as is” appraised value of the underlying collateral.

The fair values of deposits with no stated maturities, which include non-interest-bearing checking, NOW accounts, regular passbook, club accounts, and money market demand accounts, are equal to the amount payable on demand at the repricing date (i.e., their carrying amounts). Fair values of certificate accounts are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies a comparable market interest rate to the aggregated weighted-average maturity of time deposits.

Fair values of borrowed funds are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies a comparable FHLB advance rate to the weighted average maturity of the borrowings.

There is no material difference between the carrying value and estimate fair value of commitments to extend credit, which are generally priced at market at the time of commitment.

Standard Financial Corp. is a Maryland corporation that provides a wide array of retail and commercial financial products and services to individuals, families and businesses through ten banking offices located in the Pennsylvania counties of Allegheny, Westmoreland and Bedford and Allegany County, Maryland through its wholly-owned subsidiary Standard Bank.

Comparison of Financial Condition

General.The Company’s total assets increased $2.7 million, or 0.6%, to $437.3 million at December 31, 2011 from $434.6 million at September 30, 2011. The increase was due primarily to an increase in net loans, partially offset by a decrease in investment securities and mortgage-backed securities. Total liabilities increased $3.0 million, or 0.9%, to $358.9 million at December 31, 2011 from $355.9 million at September 30, 2011. The increase was due primarily to an increase in deposits.

Cash and Cash Equivalents.Cash and cash equivalents decreased $260,000, or 2.1%, to $12.4 million at December 31, 2011 from $12.7 million at September 30, 2011.

Loans.At December 31, 2011, net loans were $290.7 million, or 66.5% of total assets, an increase of $5.6 million from $285.1 million or 65.6% of total assets at September 30, 2011. This increase was primarily due to increases of $2.6 million in the commercial real estate portfolio and $2.3 million in the one- to four-family residential real estate portfolio. We have continued our focus on steadily increasing our commercial real estate loans to better diversify our loan portfolio.

Investment Securities.At December 31, 2011, the Company’s investment securities available for sale portfolio decreased $1.4 million or 2.3% to $61.5 million at December 31, 2011 from $62.9 million at September 30, 2011. Purchases during the quarter ended December 31, 2011 consisted of $11.0 million of government agency bonds and $3.4 million of tax-exempt municipal securities. The purchases were offset by sales of government agency bonds of $6.0 million, calls of government agency bonds and taxable municipals of $5.5 million and $1.0 million, respectively, and maturities of tax-exempt municipals of $3.2 million.

Mortgage-Backed Securities.At December 31, 2011, the Company’s mortgage-backed securities available for sale portfolio decreased $1.3 million or 3.0% to $41.5 million at December 31, 2011 from $42.8 million at September 30, 2011. Purchases during the quarter ended December 31, 2011 consisted of $2.1 million of mortgage-backed securities offset by repayments on mortgage-backed securities of $3.0 million.

Deposits.We accept deposits primarily from the areas in which our offices are located. We have consistently focused on building broader customer relationships and targeting small business customers to increase our core deposits. We also rely on our enhanced technology and our customer service to attract and retain deposits. We offer a variety of deposit accounts with a range of interest rates and terms. Our deposit accounts consist of savings accounts, certificates of deposit, money market accounts, commercial and regular checking accounts and individual retirement accounts. We do not accept brokered deposits. Interest rates, maturity terms, service fees and withdrawal penalties are established on a periodic basis. Deposit rates and terms are based primarily on current operating strategies and market interest rates, liquidity requirements and our deposit growth goals.

Our deposits increased $4.1 million, or 1.3%, to $324.4 million at December 31, 2011 from $320.3 million at September 30, 2011. The increase resulted from a $4.1 million, or 3.0%, increase in certificates of deposit. The increase in certificates of deposit resulted from an increase in longer term certificate products some of which provide the customer an option to increase the interest rate on the certificate in the future.

Borrowings.Our borrowings consist of advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh and funds borrowed under repurchase agreements. Total borrowings decreased $424,000 or 1.3% to $31.0 million at December 31, 2011 from $31.4 million at September 30, 2011. The decrease was due primarily to the maturity and repayment of an $869,000 Federal Home Loan Bank advance.

Stockholders’ Equity.Stockholders’ equity decreased $345,000, or 0.4%, to $78.4 million at December 31, 2011 from $78.7 million at September 30, 2011. The decrease was due primarily to the repurchase of common stock totaling $827,000 and cash dividends paid totaling $144,000, partly offset by net income of $831,000 for the first fiscal quarter.

Average Balance and Yields

The following table sets forth average balance sheets, average yields and costs, and certain other information for the periods indicated. No tax-equivalent yield adjustments were made, as the effect thereof was not material. All average balances are daily average balances. Non-accrual loans were included in the computation of average balances, but have been reflected in the table as loans carrying a zero yield. The yields set forth below include the effect of deferred fees, discounts and premiums that are amortized or accreted to interest income or expense.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended December 31, 2011 and 2010

General. Net income for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 was $831,000 compared to $18,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2010. Net income for the three months ended December 31, 2010 included a $1.4 million one-time contribution to Standard Charitable Foundation ($908,000 after tax impact). This contribution represented $1.2 million or 3.5% of the stock issued on October 6, 2010 and $200,000 in cash. Excluding the after tax impact of the contribution, net income would have been $926,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2010.Excluding the one-time charitable contribution, net income decreased $95,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2010 due primarily to an increase in noninterest expenses of $103,000, lower noninterest income of $23,000, partially offset by a $50,000 decrease in the provision for loan losses.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 of $3.3 million was unchanged from the quarter ended December 31, 2010. Our net interest rate spread and net interest margin were 3.11% and 3.26%, respectively for the three months ended December 31, 2011 compared to 3.05% and 3.24% for the same period in the prior year.

Interest and Dividend Income. Total interest and dividend income of $4.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2011 decreased $210,000 compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease was due to a decrease in the average balance of interest-earning assets and a decrease in the average yield on interest-earning assets. Average interest-earning assets decreased by $2.7 million, or 0.7% to $406.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2011 from $409.2 million for the same period in 2010. The average yield on interest-earning assets decreased to 4.37% for the three months ended December 31, 2011 from 4.55% for the same period in the prior year.

Interest income on loans decreased $196,000, or 4.9%, to $3.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2011 due primarily to a decrease in the average yield on loans. The average yield on loans receivable decreased to 5.19% for the three months ended December 31, 2011 from 5.45% for the same period in the prior year. The decrease in average yield was primarily attributable to our variable rate loans adjusting downward as prime and short-term interest rates remained low as well as the origination of new loans in a generally lower interest rate environment and repayment/refinance of higher rate loans. Average loans receivable decreased by $410,000, or 0.1%, to $291.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2011 from $292.1 million for the same period in the prior year.

Interest income on investment and mortgage-backed securities decreased by $15,000, or 0.1%, to $642,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2011 from $657,000 for the same period in the prior year. This decrease was due primarily to a decrease in the average yield earned on investments and mortgage-backed securities to 2.49% for the three months ended December 31, 2011 from 2.77% for the same period in the prior year due to new investments added in a lower interest rate environment and variable rate investments that adjusted downward. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in the average balance of investment and mortgage-backed securities, which increased by $8.0 million, or 8.4%, to $103.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2011 from $95.0 million for the same period in the prior year.

Interest Expense. Total interest expense decreased by $214,000, or 16.0%, to $1.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2011 from $1.3 million for the same period in 2010. This decrease in interest expense was due to a decrease in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities to 1.26% for the three months ended December 31, 2011 from 1.50% for the prior year period. In addition, average interest-bearing liabilities decreased by $1.7 million, or 0.5%, to $355.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2011 from $357.5 million for the same period in the prior year.

Interest expense on deposits decreased by $95,000, or 9.3%, to $929,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2011 from $1.0 million for the same period in the prior year. The average cost of deposits declined from 1.30% for the three months ended December 31, 2010 to 1.15% for the three months ended December 31, 2011. The continued low level of market interest rates enabled us to reduce the rates of interest paid on deposit products. Partially offsetting this decrease in interest expense was an increase in the average balance of certificates of deposit which increased $11.8 million, or 9.4%, to $136.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2011 from $125.0 million for the same period in 2010.

Interest expense on Federal Home Loan Bank advances decreased $115,000 or 37.2%, to $194,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2011 from $309,000 for the same period during 2010. The average balance of advances decreased $9.2 million or 24.7% to $28.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2011 compared to the same period in the prior year. In addition, the average cost of advances decreased to 2.75% for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 from 3.30% for the quarter ended December 31, 2010 as higher rate advances matured and were repaid.

Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses decreased by $50,000, or 14.3%, to $300,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2011 from $350,000 for the same period in 2010. Non-performing loans at December 31, 2011 were $3.8 million or 1.30% of total loans compared to $4.0 million or 1.35% of total loans at December 31, 2010. The provision that was recorded is sufficient, in management’s judgment, to bring the allowance for loan losses to a level that reflects the losses inherent in our loan portfolio relative to loan mix, economic conditions and historical loss experience. Management believes, to the best of their knowledge, that all known losses as of the balance sheet dates have been recorded.

22

Noninterest Income. Noninterest income decreased $23,000, or 3.7%, to $594,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2011 from $617,000 for the same period in the prior year due mainly to lower net loan sale gains and lower service charges on deposits. Partially offsetting these decreases were higher net securities gains.

Noninterest Expenses. Noninterest expenses decreased by $1.3 million, or 34.5%, to $2.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010. The decrease was due to a $1.4 million one-time contribution to Standard Charitable Foundation during the three months ended December 31, 2010. Excluding the one-time charitable contribution, noninterest expenses increased $103,000 or 4.5% due primarily to increased compensation and employee benefits and other operating expenses.

Income Tax Expense (Benefit). The Company recorded a provision for income tax of $361,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2011 compared to an income tax benefit of $130,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2010. The tax effect of the charitable foundation contribution for the quarter ended December 31, 2010 was a benefit of $468,000.

Non-Performing and Problem Assets

There were no loans in arrears 90 days or more and still accruing interest. Loans in arrears 90 days or more or in process of foreclosure (non-accrual loans) were as follows:

	Number of Loans		Amount		Percentage of Loans Receivable
	(Dollars in thousands)
December 31, 2011		26	$	3,847		1.30	%
September 30, 2011		26		4,626		1.60

At December 31, 2011 and September 30, 2011, the Company had impaired loans totaling $2.8 million and $3.1 million, respectively. The largest impaired loan at both dates was a $1.1 million loan representing a 6% interest in a participation loan which was secured by commercial real estate and a mall in West Virginia. Foreclosure on this loan was initiated by the participating banks but a declaration of bankruptcy by the borrower has caused a delay in this process. The second largest loan at both dates was a $700,000 loan which was secured by commercial real estate and a restaurant in Maryland. The borrower on this loan has declared bankruptcy which also delayed foreclosure proceedings.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is the ability to meet current and future financial obligations. Our primary sources of funds consist of deposit inflows, loan repayments, advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh, repurchase agreements and maturities, principal repayments and the sale of available-for-sale securities. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and securities are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition. Our Asset/Liability Management Committee, under the direction of our Chief Financial Officer, is responsible for establishing and monitoring our liquidity targets and strategies in order to ensure that sufficient liquidity exists for meeting the borrowing needs and deposit withdrawals of our customers as well as unanticipated contingencies. We believe that we have enough sources of liquidity to satisfy our short- and long-term liquidity needs as of December 31, 2011.

At December 31, 2011, we had $17.5 million in loan commitments outstanding, $14.6 million of which were for commercial loans and $2.9 million of which were for one- to four-family loans. In addition to commitments to originate loans, we had $12.7 million in unused lines of credit to borrowers and $92,000 in undisbursed funds for construction loans in process. Certificates of deposit due within one year of December 31, 2011 totalled $32.7 million, or 10.1% of total deposits. If these deposits do not remain with us, we may be required to seek other sources of funds, including loan and securities sales, repurchase agreements and Federal Home Loan Bank advances.

Current regulatory requirements specify that the Bank and similar institutions must maintain leverage capital equal to 4% of adjusted total assets and risk-based capital equal to 8% of risk-weighted assets. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) may require higher core capital ratios if warranted, and institutions are to maintain capital levels consistent with their risk exposures. The FDIC reserves the right to apply this higher standard to any insured financial institution when considering an institution’s capital adequacy. At December 31, 2011, Standard Bank was in compliance with all regulatory capital requirements with leverage and risk-based capital ratios of 12.62% and 20.52%, respectively, and was considered “well capitalized” under regulatory guidelines.
