These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. Except as required by applicable law or regulation, Eureka Financial Corp. does not undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligation, to release publicly the result of any revisions that may be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of the statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.

ITEM 1. | BUSINESS |
General
Eureka Financial Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated in September 2010 to be the stock holding company of Eureka Bank (the “Bank”) upon completion of the Bank’s “second-step” conversion from the mutual holding company to the stock holding company form of organization, which occurred on February 28, 2011. The Company is the successor to old Eureka Financial Corp., a federally chartered corporation previously existing as the mid-tier holding company for the Bank. In connection with the Bank’s conversion, 763,635 shares of Company common stock, par value $0.01 per share, were sold in a subscription and community offering for $10.00 per share. In addition, approximately 555,258 additional shares of the Company’s common stock (without taking into consideration cash issued in lieu of fractional shares) were issued in exchange for the outstanding shares of common stock of old Eureka Financial Corp. held by persons other than Eureka Bancorp, MHC, the former mutual holding company of the Bank.
The Company’s principal business activity is the ownership of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Bank. The Company does not own or lease any property but instead uses the premises, equipment and other property of the Bank, with the payment of appropriate rental fees, as required by applicable laws and regulations, under the terms of an expense allocation agreement.
The Bank operates as a community-oriented financial institution offering traditional financial services to consumers and businesses in its market area. The Bank attracts deposits from the general public and uses those funds to originate one- to four-family real estate, multi-family and commercial real estate, commercial loans, leases and lines of credit, construction and consumer loans, which the Bank generally holds for investment, and to purchase commercial leases.
The Company’s website address iswww.eurekabancorp.com. Information on our website should not be considered a part of this annual report.

Market Area
We are headquartered in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, which is located in Allegheny County. We maintain two offices in the Oakland and Shaler sections in the Pittsburgh metropolitan area, which we consider to be our primary market area. Our market area has a broad range of private employers, and has changed its focus from heavy industry to more specialized industries, including technology, health care, education and finance service providers. Allegheny County, Pennsylvania is the headquarters for several Fortune 500 companies, including H.J. Heinz, USX Corporation and Alcoa Inc. The largest employers in the Pittsburgh metropolitan area, the population of which was estimated to be approximately 2.4 million in 2012, include the United States government, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center and the University of Pittsburgh. Seven colleges and universities are located in the greater Pittsburgh area.
Our market area did not fully benefit from the national economic expansion nor has our market area been as negatively impacted as other parts of the country during the recent economic recession. As a result of the recession, the national unemployment rate increased to over 10% and real estate prices across the country have declined substantially in many markets. Our market area was not insulated from the impact of the economic downturn. While still dramatically higher than a couple of years ago, our market area’s unemployment rates have generally fared slightly better than Pennsylvania and nationally. As of August 2013, U.S. Department of Labor statistics reflected that Allegheny County had an unemployment rate of 7.0% compared to Pennsylvania and national unemployment rates of 7.8% and 7.3%, respectively.
Competition
We face significant competition for the attraction of deposits and origination of loans. Our most direct competition for deposits has historically come from the numerous financial institutions operating in our market area and, to a lesser extent, from other financial service companies such as brokerage firms, credit unions and insurance companies. We also face competition for investors’ funds from money market funds, mutual funds and other corporate and government securities. As of June 30, 2013, the most recent date for which information is available, we held 0.16% of the deposits in Allegheny County, which is the 20th largest market share out of 35 financial institutions in the county. In addition, larger banks such as PNC Bank, Citizens Bank, Dollar Bank, First Niagara Bank and First Commonwealth Bank, also operate in our market areas. These institutions are significantly larger than we are and, therefore, have greater resources.
Our competition for loans comes primarily from financial institutions in our market areas, and, to a lesser extent, from other financial service providers such as mortgage companies, mortgage brokers and credit unions. Competition for loans also comes from non-depository financial service companies entering the mortgage and commercial lending markets such as insurance companies, securities companies and specialty finance companies.
We expect competition to increase in the future as a result of legislative, regulatory and technological changes and the continuing trend of consolidation in the financial services industry. Technological advances, for example, have lowered the barriers to market entry, allowed banks and other lenders to expand their geographic reach by providing services over the Internet and made it possible for non-depository institutions to offer products and services that traditionally have been provided by banks. Changes in federal law permit affiliation among banks, securities firms and insurance companies, which promotes a competitive environment in the financial services industry. Competition for deposits and the origination of loans could limit our future growth.
Lending Activities
We generally originate loans for investment. The largest segments of our loan portfolio are one- to four-family residential real estate loans and multi-family and commercial real estate loans. In addition, we regularly purchase commercial leases with shorter maturities than traditional one- to four-family residential loans from an unrelated third party. To a lesser extent, we also offer construction and consumer loans, including home equity loans and lines of credit. We have not originated or targeted subprime loans in our portfolio.

Table of Contents
One- to Four-Family Residential Real Estate Loans. The largest segment of our loan portfolio is one- to four-family residential real estate loans, which enable borrowers to purchase or refinance existing homes secured by properties located in our primary market area. A majority of our residential mortgage loans are secured by owner-occupied residences located in our primary market area. However, a significant percentage of our residential mortgage loans are secured by non-owner-occupied residences housing college and graduate students in the immediate area surrounding our Oakland branch office, which is located adjacent to the University of Pittsburgh and Carnegie Mellon University campuses. We offer predominantly fixed-rate one- to four-family residential real estate loans, with terms of up to 30 years for owner-occupied properties and terms of up to 15 years for non-owner-occupied properties. Loan fees, interest rates and other provisions of mortgage loans are determined based on our own pricing criteria and competitive market conditions. We generally retain all of our one- to four-family residential real estate loans and do not sell any such loans into the secondary market.
While one- to four-family residential real estate loans are normally originated with terms of up to 30 years, such loans typically remain outstanding for substantially shorter periods because borrowers often prepay their loans in full upon sale of the property pledged as security or upon refinancing the original loan. Therefore, average loan maturity is a function of, among other factors, the level of purchase and sale activity in the real estate market, prevailing interest rates and the interest rates payable on outstanding loans.
We generally do not make one- to four-family fixed rate residential loans with loan-to-value ratios exceeding 80% of the lesser of the appraised value or purchase price at the time the loan is originated. However, we have the ability to originate one- to four-family residential loans of up to 95% of the value of properties located in our primary market area for qualified first-time home buyers and do not require private mortgage insurance on these loans. At September 30, 2013, we had no residential loans with a loan-to-value ratio exceeding 95% at the time of origination. We require properties securing mortgage loans to be appraised by an independent appraiser approved by us. In addition, we generally require title insurance on all first mortgage loans. Borrowers must also generally obtain hazard insurance, and flood insurance for loans on properties located in a flood zone, before closing the loan. Our one- to four-family residential mortgage loans also generally include due-on-sale clauses, which permit us to deem a loan immediately due and payable if the borrower transfers ownership of the property securing the loan without our consent.
At September 30, 2013, our largest outstanding one- to four-family residential real estate loan had an outstanding balance of $964,000 and was secured by a single-family dwelling located in the Pittsburgh metropolitan area. This loan was performing accordance with its contractual terms at September 30, 2013.
Multi-Family and Commercial Real Estate Loans. We purchase participation interests in and, to a lesser extent, originate, fixed-rate and adjustable-rate mortgage loans secured by multi-family and commercial real estate to individuals and small businesses in our primary market area. Our multi-family and commercial real estate loans are generally secured by apartment buildings, as well as office and retail space.
We originate multi-family and commercial real estate loans with terms of up to 20 years. These loans are typically repaid, or their terms are extended, before maturity, in which case a new rate is negotiated to meet market conditions and an extension of the loan is executed for a new term with a new amortization schedule. Loans are secured by first mortgages that generally do not exceed 75% of the property’s appraised value. We require all properties securing multi-family and commercial real estate loans to be appraised by an independent licensed appraiser approved by us. Many multi-family and commercial real estate loans also are supported by personal guarantees.
Interest rates and payments on our adjustable-rate multi-family and commercial real estate loans generally adjust after an initial fixed period of five years with balloon payments due upon maturity. Interest rates and payments on our adjustable-rate loans generally are based on the five-year Treasury Index.
At September 30, 2013, our largest outstanding multi-family or commercial real estate loan was a multi-family loan for $2.2 million secured by an apartment building located in the Pittsburgh metropolitan area. This loan was performing in accordance with its contractual terms at September 30, 2013.

Commercial Leases and Lines of Credit. We purchase, through an unrelated party with whom we have worked for the past twelve years, commercial leases with adjustable-rate features or fixed-rate loans with shorter maturities than traditional one- to four-family residential mortgage loans. The commercial leases we purchase generally have a two- to seven-year amortization period and the balances on these loans generally range from $25,000 to $1.5 million. At September 30, 2013, our largest aggregate exposure to one commercial lease borrower was $1.6 million. The commercial leases comprising this relationship were made to a borrower located in the Pittsburgh metropolitan area and are secured by industrial equipment. These loans were performing in accordance with their contractual terms at September 30, 2013. To a significantly lesser extent, we also originate commercial leases to qualified borrowers. At September 30, 2013, our originated commercial leases totaled $1.2 million. Our purchased commercial leases, which totaled $16.2 million at September 30, 2013, are originated by a leasing corporation that services the loans and remits payments from the borrowers to us. These loans are generally secured by, among other things, equipment, machinery, computers, medical devices and school buses, and some are personally guaranteed by the lessor. We generally maintain a first lien on the collateral securing the loans. Our commercial leases are primarily made to tool and die companies, hospitals, universities, machine tool shops and schools. These leases generally have higher loan-to-value ratios than residential mortgages and repayment is typically dependent upon the success of the borrower’s business.
We also originate adjustable-rate commercial lines of credit to business customers with interest rates based on the prime rate, as published in theWall Street Journal. Our commercial lines of credit permit borrowers to make monthly interest-only payments and are generally secured by commercial, investment or residential real estate and accounts receivable. At September 30, 2013, the outstanding balance of our commercial lines of credit was $4.0 million, with $5.1 million remaining in available credit.
Construction Loans. We make construction loans primarily for the construction of one- to four-family residential dwellings and commercial real estate projects in our primary market area. Our construction loans made to developers generally require the payment of interest at fixed rates during the construction period (typically up to two years) and payment of the principal in full at the end of the construction period. Loans made to individual property owners are structured to provide both construction and permanent financing. With respect to these loans, borrowers pay interest-only during the construction period (typically up to six months).
At September 30, 2013, our largest outstanding construction loan had an outstanding balance of $1.2 million and was secured by a shopping mall located in the Pittsburgh metropolitan area. This loan was performing in accordance with its contractual terms at September 30, 2013.
Consumer Loans. To a lesser extent, we also offer a variety of consumer loans, including home equity loans, lines of credit and home improvement loans. The procedures for underwriting consumer loans include an assessment of the applicant’s payment history on other debts and ability to meet existing obligations and payments on the proposed loan. Although the applicant’s creditworthiness is a primary consideration, the underwriting process also includes a comparison of the value of the collateral, if any, to the proposed loan amount. We offer fixed-rate home equity loans to applicants who maintain owner-occupied or single-family dwellings. Generally, the amount of the home equity loan is based on the total indebtedness of the property and, when combined with the first mortgage loan on the property, will not exceed 80% of the appraised value of the property. We also offer home equity lines of credit with maximum line amounts of $100,000 and minimum line amounts of $10,000. In addition, we offer unsecured improvement and share and passbook loans to qualifying borrowers. At September 30, 2013, we had a total of $1,700 in unsecured consumer loans.
Loan Underwriting Risks
Multi-Family and Commercial Real Estate Loans. Loans secured by multi-family and commercial real estate generally have larger balances and involve a greater degree of risk than one- to four-family residential mortgage loans. Of primary concern in multi-family and commercial real estate lending is the borrower’s creditworthiness and the feasibility and cash flow potential of the property. Payments on loans secured by income properties often depend on successful operation and management of the properties. As a result, repayment of such loans may be subject to a greater extent than residential real estate loans to adverse conditions in the real estate market or the economy. To monitor cash flows on income properties, we generally require borrowers and loan guarantors to provide annual financial statements and/or tax returns. In reaching a decision on whether to make a multi-family or commercial real estate loan, we consider the net operating income of the property, the borrower’s expertise, credit history and profitability and the value of the underlying property. We have generally required that the properties securing these real estate loans have debt service coverage ratios (the ratio of earnings before debt service to debt service) of not less than 1.05x. Environmental screens, surveys and inspections are obtained when circumstances suggest the possibility of the presence of hazardous materials. Further, in connection with our ongoing monitoring of the loan, we typically will review the property, the underlying loan and guarantors annually.

Table of Contents
In addition, because we offer adjustable-rate multi-family and commercial real estate loans, the increased payments required of adjustable-rate loan borrowers in a rising interest rate environment could cause an increase in delinquencies and defaults. The marketability and collateral value of the underlying property also may be adversely affected in a high interest rate environment. In addition, although adjustable-rate mortgage loans help make our loan portfolio more responsive to changes in interest rates, the extent of this interest sensitivity is limited by the annual and lifetime interest rate adjustment limits.
Commercial Leases and Lines of Credit. Due to their generally shorter terms, commercial leases produce high yields and enhance our asset/liability management program by reducing our exposure to interest rate risk changes. However, these loans may entail significant additional credit risk compared to owner-occupied residential mortgage lending since repayment is generally contingent upon the success of the borrower’s business. In addition, it is generally more difficult to repossess and ascertain the value of collateral securing commercial leases than it is to repossess and ascertain the value of real estate securing residential mortgage loans.
Construction Loans. Construction lending is generally considered to involve a higher level of credit risk than one- to four-family residential lending since the risk of loss on construction loans is dependent largely upon the accuracy of the initial estimate of the individual property’s value upon completion of the project and the estimated cost (including interest) of the project. If the cost estimate proves to be inaccurate, we may be required to advance funds beyond the amount originally committed to permit completion of the project.
Consumer Loans. Consumer loans that are not secured by real estate may entail greater risk than residential mortgage loans do. In such cases, repossessed collateral for a defaulted consumer loan may not provide an adequate source of repayment for the outstanding loan and the remaining deficiency often does not warrant further substantial collection efforts against the borrower. In addition, consumer loan collections depend on the borrower’s continuing financial stability and, therefore, are more likely to be adversely affected by job loss, divorce, illness or personal bankruptcy. Furthermore, the application of various federal and state laws, including bankruptcy and insolvency laws, may limit the amount that can be recovered on such loans.
Loan Originations, Sales and Participations. Loan originations come from a number of sources. The primary source of loan originations is existing customers, walk-in traffic, advertising, referrals from customers and loans originated by our commercial relationship managers.
At September 30, 2013, we were a participating lender on 15 loan relationships with one local financial institution totaling $11.3 million, which are secured primarily by commercial real estate. These loans are being serviced by the lead lender. We expect to continue to purchase similar participation interests when such opportunities meet our investment returns and risk parameters. On these participation interests, we generally perform our own underwriting analysis before purchasing such loans and therefore believe there should not be a greater risk of default on these obligations. However, in a purchased participation loan, we do not service the loan and thus are subject to the policies and practices of the lead lender with regard to monitoring delinquencies, pursuing collections and instituting foreclosure proceedings. In assessing whether to participate, we require a review of all of the documentation relating to any loan in which we participate, including any annual financial statements provided by a borrower. Additionally, we require periodic updates on the loan from the lead lender.
From time to time, we will also sell participation interests in loans where we are the lead lender and servicer. At September 30, 2013, we were the lead lender on two loan relationships totaling $4.6 million, of which we owned $2.6 million and serviced $2.0 million for another bank. We expect in the future that we will continue to sell participation interests to local financial institutions, primarily with respect to commercial real estate loans that approach or exceed our lending limits.

Table of Contents
Loan Approval Procedures and Authority. Our lending activities follow written, non-discriminatory, underwriting standards and loan origination procedures established by our board of directors and management. Our President and Chief Executive Officer generally has the authority to approve all commercial and residential real estate loans and commercial leases of up to $250,000. Our board of directors or our loan committee, which consists of our President and Chief Executive Officer and three members of our board of directors, ratifies all loans made by our President and Chief Executive Officer. Our loan committee or board of directors approves all loans over the $250,000 limit.
Loans to One Borrower. The maximum amount we may lend to one borrower and the borrower’s related entities generally is limited by regulation to 15% of our stated capital and reserves. At September 30, 2013, our general regulatory limit on loans to one borrower was approximately $3.1 million. At that date, our largest lending relationship consisted of 11 loans totaling $2.8 million, which were primarily secured by multi-family properties. These loans were performing in accordance with their contractual terms at September 30, 2013.
Loan Commitments. We issue commitments for mortgage loans conditioned upon the occurrence of certain events. Commitments to originate mortgage loans are legally binding agreements to lend to our customers. Generally, our mortgage loan commitments expire within 60 days.
Investment Activities
The board of directors reviews and approves our investment policy annually. Our investment policy is structured to provide management with the criteria for maintaining our investment portfolio, as well as satisfying applicable regulatory requirements, and is designed to allow investment in securities that will bring an acceptable rate of return while at the same time minimize credit and interest rate risk. The board of directors reviews investment transactions and monitors the composition and performance of our investment portfolio on a monthly basis.
We have authority to invest in various types of liquid assets, including U.S. Treasury obligations, mortgage-backed securities, mortgage derivative securities and stocks, municipal bonds, mutual funds and debentures which are backed by government related agencies. However, we had no investments in mortgage derivative securities at September 30, 2013 and currently have no intention of purchasing these types of securities. We also are required to maintain an investment in Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh stock.
At September 30, 2013, our investment portfolio had an amortized cost of $9.6 million and a fair value of $8.9 million and consisted primarily of government agency debentures.
Deposit Activities and Other Sources of Funds
Deposits, borrowings and loan repayments are the major sources of our funds for lending and other investment purposes. Loan repayments are a relatively stable source of funds, while deposit inflows and outflows are significantly influenced by general interest rates and money market conditions.
Deposit Accounts. Substantially all of our depositors are residents of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. We attract deposits in our primary market area through advertising and through the offering of a broad selection of deposit instruments, including non-interest-bearing demand accounts (such as checking accounts), interest-bearing accounts (such as NOW and money market accounts), regular savings accounts and certificates of deposit. At September 30, 2013, we had two customers with deposit balances totaling $2.1 million invested through the Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service (“CDARS”). CDARS deposits, which are generally offered to in-market retail and commercial customers, offer our customers the ability to receive Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance on deposits up to $50.0 million. At September 30, 2013, we did not maintain any brokered deposits other than these CDARS deposits. Deposit account terms vary according to the minimum balance required, the time periods the funds must remain on deposit and the interest rate, among other factors. In determining the terms of our deposit accounts, we consider the rates offered by our competition, our liquidity needs, profitability to us, matching deposit and loan products and customer preferences. We generally review our deposit mix and pricing on a monthly basis. Our current strategy is to offer competitive rates and to be in the middle to top third of the market for rates on a variety of retail and business deposit products.

Table of Contents
Borrowings. We periodically utilize borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh to provide additional liquidity, aside from deposits, to fund our loans and investments. As of September 30, 2013, we had no outstanding borrowings with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh.
The Federal Home Loan Bank functions as a central reserve bank providing credit for its member financial institutions. As a member, we are required to own capital stock in the Federal Home Loan Bank and are authorized to apply for advances on the security of such stock and certain of our whole first mortgage loans and other assets (principally mortgage related securities which are obligations of, or guaranteed by, the United States), provided certain standards related to creditworthiness have been met. Advances are made under several different programs, each having its own interest rate and range of maturities. Depending on the program, limitations on the amount of advances are based either on a fixed percentage of an institution’s net worth or on the Federal Home Loan Bank’s assessment of the institution’s creditworthiness.
Executive Officers
Our executive officers are elected by the board of directors and serve at the board’s discretion. The following individuals currently serve as executive officers.
Name | Position | |
Edward F. Seserko | President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the Bank | |
Gary B. Pepper | Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Company and the Bank |
Below is information regarding our executive officer who is not also a director. Age is as of September 30, 2013.
Gary B. Pepperis Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Company and the Bank. Mr. Pepper has been employed by the Bank since 1991 and has served in various positions with the Bank since that time. He is also the President of the Financial Security Officers Association of Western Pennsylvania. Age 55.
Personnel
As of September 30, 2013, we had 19 full-time employees and two part-time employees. We believe our relationship with our employees is good.
Regulation and Supervision
The Bank is subject to extensive regulation, examination and supervision by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, as its primary federal regulator, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, as the deposit insurer. The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank System and its deposit accounts are insured up to applicable limits by the Deposit Insurance Fund managed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Bank must file reports with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency concerning its activities and financial condition in addition to obtaining regulatory approvals before entering into certain transactions such as mergers with, or acquisitions of, other financial institutions. There are periodic examinations by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency to test the Bank’s safety and soundness and compliance with various laws and regulatory requirements. This regulation and supervision establishes a comprehensive framework of activities in which an institution can engage and is intended primarily for the protection of the insurance fund and depositors. The regulatory structure also gives the regulatory authorities extensive discretion in connection with their supervisory and enforcement activities and examination policies, including policies with respect to the classification of assets and the establishment of adequate loan loss reserves for regulatory purposes. Any change in such regulatory requirements and policies, whether by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or through legislation, could have a material adverse impact on our operations. The Company, as a savings and loan holding company, is subject to Federal Reserve Board regulations, examinations, supervision, reporting requirements and regulations regarding its activities.

Certain of the regulatory requirements applicable to the Bank and to the Company are referred to below or elsewhere herein. To the extent statutory or regulatory provisions are described in this section, such descriptions are not intended to be a complete explanation of such statutes and regulations and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the particular statutory or regulatory provisions.
Regulatory Reform
The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) made extensive changes in the regulation of financial institutions and their holding companies. Under the Dodd-Frank Act, the Office of Thrift Supervision was eliminated and the responsibility for the supervision and regulation of federal savings banks was transferred on July 21, 2011 to the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. On the same date, responsibility for the regulation and supervision of savings and loan holding companies was transferred to the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.
Additionally, the Dodd-Frank Act created a Consumer Financial Protection Bureau as an independent bureau of the Federal Reserve Board. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau assumed responsibility for the implementation of the federal financial consumer protection and fair lending laws and regulations and has authority to impose new requirements. However, institutions of less than $10 billion in assets, such as the Bank, will continue to be examined for compliance with consumer protection and fair lending laws and regulations by, and be subject to the enforcement authority of, their prudential regulator.
Federal Savings Institution Regulation
Business Activities. The activities of federal savings institutions, such as the Bank, are governed by federal laws and regulations. These laws and regulations delineate the nature and extent of the activities in which federal associations may engage. In particular, certain types of lending authority for federal associations, e.g., commercial, non-residential real property and consumer loans, are limited to a specified percentage of the institution’s capital or assets.
Loans to One Borrower. Federal law provides that savings institutions are generally subject to the national bank limits on loans to one borrower. A savings institution may generally not make a loan or extend credit to a single or related group of borrowers in excess of 15% of the Bank’s unimpaired capital and surplus. An additional amount may be loaned, equal to 10% of unimpaired capital and surplus, if secured by readily-marketable collateral.
Qualified Thrift Lender Test. Federal law requires savings institutions to meet a qualified thrift lender (“QTL”) test. Under the test, a savings bank is required to maintain at least 65% of its “portfolio assets” (total assets less (i) specified liquid assets up to 20% of total assets, (ii) intangibles, including goodwill, and (iii) the value of property used to conduct business) in certain “qualified thrift investments” (primarily residential mortgages and related investments, including certain mortgage-backed securities but also including education, credit card and small business loans) on a monthly basis in 9 out of every 12 months.
A savings institution that fails the QTL test is subject to certain operating restrictions. The Dodd-Frank Act subjects violations of the QTL test requirements to possible enforcement action for a violation of law and could impose dividend limitations. As of September 30, 2013, the Bank met the QTL test.
Limitations on Capital Distributions. Federal regulations impose limitations upon all capital distributions by a savings institution, such as cash dividends, payments to repurchase its shares and payments to shareholders of another institution in a cash-out merger. Under the regulations, an application to and the prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board is required prior to any capital distribution if the institution does not meet the criteria for “expedited treatment” of applications under applicable regulations (i.e., generally examination ratings in the top two categories), the total capital distributions for the calendar year exceed net income for that year plus the amount of retained net income for the preceding two years, the institution would be undercapitalized following the distribution or the distribution would otherwise be contrary to a statute, regulation or agreement with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. If an application is not required, the institution must still provide prior notice to the Federal Reserve Board of the capital distribution since it is a subsidiary of the holding company. Notice must also be provided to the OCC. If the Bank’s capital fell below its regulatory requirements or the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency notified it that it was in need of more than normal supervision, the Bank’s ability to make capital distributions could be restricted. In addition, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency could prohibit a proposed capital distribution by any institution, which would otherwise be permitted by the regulation, if the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency determines that such distribution would constitute an unsafe or unsound practice.

Assessments. Savings institutions are required to pay assessments to the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency to fund the agency’s operations. The general assessment, paid on a semi-annual basis, is based on the savings institution’s total assets, including consolidated subsidiaries, as reported in the latest quarterly call report, financial condition and the complexity of its portfolio.
Community Reinvestment Act. The Community Reinvestment Act requires the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, in connection with its examination of a savings institution, to assess the institution’s record of meeting the credit needs of its community, including low- and moderate-income neighborhoods, and to take such record into account in its evaluation of certain applications by such institution. The Community Reinvestment Act also requires all institutions to make public disclosure of their Community Reinvestment Act ratings. The Bank received a “satisfactory” Community Reinvestment Act rating in its most recent examination.
Transactions with Related Parties. The Bank’s authority to engage in certain transactions with “affiliates” (i.e., any company that controls or is under common control with an institution, including the Company and any non-savings institution subsidiaries) is limited by federal law. The aggregate amount of covered transactions with any individual affiliate is limited to 10% of the capital and surplus of the savings institution. The aggregate amount of covered transactions with all affiliates is limited to 20% of the savings institution’s capital and surplus. Certain transactions with affiliates are required to be secured by collateral in an amount and of a type described in federal law. The purchase of low quality assets from affiliates is generally prohibited. Transactions with affiliates must be on terms and under circumstances that are at least as favorable as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with non-affiliated companies. In addition, savings institutions are prohibited from lending to any affiliate that is engaged in activities that are not permissible for bank holding companies and no savings institution may purchase the securities of any affiliate other than a subsidiary.
The Bank’s authority to extend credit to executive officers, directors and 10% shareholders (“insiders”), as well as entities controlled by such persons, is also governed by federal law. The laws limit both the individual and aggregate amount of loans that the Bank may make to insiders based, in part, on the Bank’s capital level and requires that certain board procedures be followed. Such loans are required to be made on terms substantially the same as those offered to unaffiliated individuals and may not involve more than the normal risk of repayment. An exception exists for loans made pursuant to a benefit or compensation program that is widely available to all employees of the institution and does not give preference to insiders over other employees. The law limits both the individual and aggregate amount of loans the Bank may make to insiders based, in part, on the Bank’s capital position and requires certain board approval procedures to be followed. There are additional restrictions on extensions of credit to executive officers.
Enforcement. The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency has primary enforcement responsibility over savings institutions and has the authority to bring actions against the institution and all institution-affiliated parties, including stockholders, and any attorneys, appraisers and accountants who knowingly or recklessly participate in wrongful action likely to have an adverse effect on an insured institution. Formal enforcement action may include the issuance of a capital directive or cease and desist order, removal of officers and/or directors, institution of receivership, conservatorship, or termination of deposit insurance. Civil penalties cover a wide range of violations and can amount to $25,000 per day, or even $1 million per day in especially egregious cases. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation has the authority to recommend to the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency that an enforcement action be taken with respect to a particular savings institution. If action is not taken by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation has the authority to take such action under certain circumstances. Federal law also establishes criminal penalties for certain violations.

Capital Requirements. The applicable capital regulations require savings associations to meet three minimum capital standards: a 1.5% tangible capital to total assets ratio, a 4% Tier 1 capital to total assets leverage ratio (3% for institutions receiving the highest rating on the CAMELS examination rating system) and an 8% risk-based capital ratio. In addition, the prompt corrective action standards discussed below also establish, in effect, a minimum 2% tangible capital standard, a 4% leverage ratio (3% for institutions receiving the highest rating on the CAMELS system) and, together with the risk-based capital standard itself, a 4% Tier 1 risk-based capital standard. The regulations also require that, in meeting the tangible, leverage and risk- based capital standards, institutions must generally deduct investments in and loans to subsidiaries engaged in activities as principal that are not permissible for a national bank.
The risk-based capital standard for savings associations requires the maintenance of Tier 1 (core) and total capital (which is defined as core capital and supplementary capital less certain specified deductions from total capital such as reciprocal holdings of depository institution capital instruments and equity investments) to risk-weighted assets of at least 4% and 8%, respectively. In determining the amount of risk-weighted assets, all assets, including certain off-balance sheet activities, recourse obligations, residual interests and direct credit substitutes, are multiplied by a risk-weight factor assigned by the capital regulation based on the risks believed inherent in the type of asset. Tier 1 (core) capital is generally defined as common stockholders’ equity (including retained earnings), certain noncumulative perpetual preferred stock and related surplus and minority interests in equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries, less intangibles other than certain mortgage servicing rights and credit card relationships. The components of supplementary capital (Tier 2 capital) include cumulative preferred stock, long-term perpetual preferred stock, mandatory convertible debt securities, subordinated debt and intermediate preferred stock, the allowance for loan and lease losses limited to a maximum of 1.25% of risk-weighted assets and up to 45% of unrealized gains on available-for-sale equity securities with readily determinable fair market values. Overall, the amount of supplementary capital included as part of total capital cannot exceed 100% of core capital.
The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency also has authority to establish individual minimum capital requirements in appropriate cases upon a determination that an institution’s capital level is or may become inadequate in light of the particular risks or circumstances. At September 30, 2013 the Bank met each of its capital requirements.
Savings and loan holding companies are not currently subject to specific regulatory capital requirements. The Dodd-Frank Act, however, required the Federal Reserve Board to promulgate consolidated capital requirements for depository institution holding companies, including savings and loan holding companies, that are no less stringent, both quantitatively and in terms of components of capital, than those applicable to institutions themselves. In early July 2013, the Federal Reserve Board and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency approved revisions to their capital adequacy guidelines and prompt corrective action rules that implement the revised standards of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, commonly called Basel III, and address relevant provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act. “Basel III” refers to two consultative documents released by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision in December 2009, the rules text released in December 2010, and loss absorbency rules issued in January 2011, which include significant changes to bank capital, leverage and liquidity requirements.
The rules include new risk-based capital and leverage ratios, which are effective January 1, 2015, and revise the definition of what constitutes “capital” for purposes of calculating those ratios. The proposed new minimum capital level requirements applicable to the Company and the Bank will be: (i) a new common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 4.5%; (ii) a Tier 1 capital ratio of 6% (increased from 4%); (iii) a total capital ratio of 8% (unchanged from current rules); and (iv) a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 4% for all institutions. The rules eliminate the inclusion of certain instruments, such as trust preferred securities, from Tier 1 capital. Instruments issued prior to May 19, 2010 will be grandfathered for companies with consolidated assets of $15 billion or less. The rules also establish a “capital conservation buffer” of 2.5% above the new regulatory minimum capital requirements, which must consist entirely of common equity Tier 1 capital and would result in the following minimum ratios: (i) a common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 7.0%, (ii) a Tier 1 capital ratio of 8.5%, and (iii) a total capital ratio of 10.5%. The new capital conservation buffer requirement will be phased in beginning in January 2016 at 0.625% of risk-weighted assets and would increase by that amount each year until fully implemented in January 2019. An institution would be subject to limitations on paying dividends, engaging in share repurchases, and paying discretionary bonuses if its capital level falls below the buffer amount. These limitations would establish a maximum percentage of eligible retained income that could be utilized for such actions.

Prompt Corrective Regulatory Action. Prompt corrective action regulations provide five classifications: well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized and critically undercapitalized, although these terms are not used to represent overall financial condition. If adequately capitalized, regulatory approval is required to accept broker deposits. The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency is required to take certain supervisory actions against undercapitalized institutions, the severity of which depends upon the institution’s degree of undercapitalization. In addition, numerous mandatory supervisory actions become immediately applicable to an undercapitalized institution, including, but not limited to, increased monitoring by regulators and restrictions on growth, capital distributions and expansion. The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency could also take any one of a number of discretionary supervisory actions, including the issuance of a capital directive and the replacement of senior executive officers and directors. Significantly and critically undercapitalized institutions are subject to additional mandatory and discretionary measures.
Insurance of Deposit Accounts.The Bank’s deposits are insured up to applicable limits by the Deposit Insurance Fund of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Deposit insurance per account owner is currently $250,000. Under the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation’s risk-based assessment system, insured institutions are assigned a risk category based on supervisory evaluations, regulatory capital levels and certain other factors. An institution’s assessment rate depends upon the category to which it is assigned, and certain adjustments specified by Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation regulations. Institutions deemed less risky pay lower assessments. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation may adjust the scale uniformly, except that no adjustment can deviate more than two basis points from the base scale without notice and comment. No institution may pay a dividend if in default of the federal deposit insurance assessment.
The Dodd-Frank Act required the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation to revise its procedures to base its assessments upon each insured institution’s total assets less tangible equity instead of deposits. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation finalized a rule, effective April 1, 2011, that set the assessment range at 2.5 to 45 basis points of total assets less tangible equity.
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation has authority to increase insurance assessments. A significant increase in insurance premiums would likely have an adverse effect on the operating expenses and results of operations of the Bank. Management cannot predict what insurance assessment rates will be in the future.
Federal Home Loan Bank System. The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank System, which consists of 12 regional Federal Home Loan Banks. The Federal Home Loan Bank provides a central credit facility primarily for member institutions. The Bank, as a member of the FHLB, is required to acquire and hold shares of capital stock in that Federal Home Loan Bank. The Bank was in compliance with this requirement with an investment in Federal Home Loan Bank stock at September 30, 2013 of $237,000.
Federal Reserve System. The Federal Reserve Board regulations require savings institutions to maintain non-interest-earning reserves against their transaction accounts (primarily NOW and regular checking accounts). The regulations generally require that reserves be maintained against aggregate transaction accounts as follows: a 3% reserve ratio is assessed on net transaction accounts up to and including $79.5 million; a 10% reserve ratio is applied over $79.5 million. The first $12.4 million of otherwise reservable balances (subject to adjustments by the Federal Reserve Board) were exempted from the reserve requirements. The Bank has complied with the foregoing requirements.
Other Regulations.The Bank’s operations are also subject to federal laws applicable to credit transactions, such as the:
• | Truth-In-Lending Act, governing disclosures of credit terms to consumer borrowers; |
• | Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, requiring that borrowers for mortgage loans for one- to four-family residential real estate receive various disclosures, including good faith estimates of settlement costs, lender servicing and escrow account practices, and prohibiting certain practices that increase the cost of settlement services; |
• | Truth in Savings Act; |

Table of Contents
• | Home Mortgage Disclosure Act of 1975, requiring financial institutions to provide information to enable the public and public officials to determine whether a financial institution is fulfilling its obligation to help meet the housing needs of the community it serves; |
• | Equal Credit Opportunity Act, prohibiting discrimination on the basis of race, creed or other prohibited factors in extending credit; |
• | Fair Credit Reporting Act of 1978, governing the use and provision of information to credit reporting agencies; |
• | Fair Debt Collection Act, governing the manner in which consumer debts may be collected by collection agencies; and |
• | Rules and regulations of the various federal agencies charged with the responsibility of implementing such federal laws. |
The operations of the Bank also are subject to the:
• | Right to Financial Privacy Act, which imposes a duty to maintain confidentiality of consumer financial records and prescribes procedures for complying with administrative subpoenas of financial records; |
• | Electronic Funds Transfer Act and Regulation E promulgated thereunder, which govern automatic deposits to and withdrawals from deposit accounts and customers’ rights and liabilities arising from the use of automated teller machines and other electronic banking services; |
• | Check Clearing for the 21st Century Act (also known as “Check 21”), which gives “substitute checks,” such as digital check images and copies made from that image, the same legal standing as the original paper check; |
• | The USA PATRIOT Act, which requires banks and savings institutions to, among other things, establish broadened anti-money laundering compliance programs and due diligence policies and controls to ensure the detection and reporting of money laundering. Such required compliance programs are intended to supplement pre-existing compliance requirements that apply to financial institutions under the Bank Secrecy Act and the Office of Foreign Assets Control regulations; and |
• | The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, which places limitations on the sharing of consumer financial information by financial institutions with unaffiliated third parties and requires all financial institutions offering products or services to retail customers to provide such customers with the financial institution’s privacy policy and allow such customers the opportunity to “opt out” of the sharing of certain personal financial information with unaffiliated third parties. |
Holding Company Regulation
As a savings and loan holding company, the Company is subject to Federal Reserve Board regulations, examinations, supervision, reporting requirements and regulations regarding its activities. Among other things, this authority permits the Federal Reserve Board to restrict or prohibit activities that are determined to be a serious risk to the Bank.
Pursuant to federal law and regulations and policy, a savings and loan holding company such as the Company may generally engage in the activities permitted for financial holding companies under Section 4(k) of the Bank Holding Company Act and certain other activities that have been authorized for savings and loan holding companies by regulation.

Table of Contents
Federal law prohibits a savings and loan holding company from, directly or indirectly or through one or more subsidiaries, acquiring more than 5% of the voting stock of another savings association, or savings and loan holding company thereof, without prior written approval of the Federal Reserve Board or from acquiring or retaining, with certain exceptions, more than 5% of a non-subsidiary holding company or savings association. A savings and loan holding company is also prohibited from acquiring more than 5% of a company engaged in activities other than those authorized by federal law or acquiring or retaining control of a depository institution that is not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. In evaluating applications by holding companies to acquire savings associations, the Federal Reserve Board must consider the financial and managerial resources and future prospects of the company and institution involved, the effect of the acquisition on the risk to the insurance funds, the convenience and needs of the community and competitive factors.
The Federal Reserve Board is prohibited from approving any acquisition that would result in a multiple savings and loan holding company controlling savings associations in more than one state, except: (i) the approval of interstate supervisory acquisitions by savings and loan holding companies; and (ii) the acquisition of a savings association in another state if the laws of the state of the target savings association specifically permit such acquisitions. The states vary in the extent to which they permit interstate savings and loan holding company acquisitions.
Source of Strength. The Dodd-Frank Act also extends the “source of strength” doctrine to savings and loan holding companies. The regulatory agencies must promulgate regulations implementing the “source of strength” policy that holding companies act as a source of strength to their subsidiary depository institutions by providing capital, liquidity and other support in times of financial stress.
Dividends.The Federal Reserve Board has the power to prohibit dividends by savings and loan holding companies if their actions constitute unsafe or unsound practices. The Federal Reserve Board has issued a policy statement on the payment of cash dividends by bank holding companies, which also applies to savings and loan holding companies and which expresses the Federal Reserve Board’s view that a holding company should pay cash dividends only to the extent that the company’s net income for the past year is sufficient to cover both the cash dividends and a rate of earnings retention that is consistent with the company’s capital needs, asset quality and overall financial condition. The Federal Reserve Board also indicated that it would be inappropriate for a holding company experiencing serious financial problems to borrow funds to pay dividends. Under the prompt corrective action regulations, the Federal Reserve Board may prohibit a bank holding company from paying any dividends if the holding company’s bank subsidiary is classified as “undercapitalized.”
Acquisition of the Company. Under the Federal Change in Bank Control Act, a notice must be submitted to the Federal Reserve Board if any person (including a company), or group acting in concert, seeks to acquire direct or indirect “control” of a savings and loan holding company or savings association. Under certain circumstances, a change of control may occur, and prior notice is required, upon the acquisition of 10% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the company or institution, unless the Federal Reserve Board has found that the acquisition will not result in a change of control. Under the Change in Control Act, the Federal Reserve Board generally has 60 days from the filing of a complete notice to act, taking into consideration certain factors, including the financial and managerial resources of the acquirer and the anti-trust effects of the acquisition. Any company that acquires control would then be subject to regulation as a savings and loan holding company.
Federal Taxation
We report our income on a calendar year basis using the accrual method of accounting. The federal income tax laws apply to us in the same manner as to other corporations with some exceptions, including particularly our reserve for bad debts discussed below. The following discussion of tax matters is intended only as a summary and does not purport to be a comprehensive description of the tax rules applicable to us. Our federal income tax returns have been either audited or closed under the statute of limitations through tax year 2004. We report our income on a fiscal year basis ending in September using the accrual method of accounting. The maximum federal income tax rate is 34%.
The Company and the Bank have entered into a tax allocation agreement. Because the Company owns 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Bank, the Company and the Bank are members of an affiliated group within the meaning of Section 1504(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, of which group the Company is the common parent corporation. As a result of this affiliation, the Bank may be included in the filing of a consolidated federal income tax return with the Company and, if a decision to file a consolidated tax return is made, the parties agree to compensate each other for their individual share of the consolidated tax liability and/or any tax benefits provided by them in the filing of the consolidated federal income tax return.

Bad Debt Reserves. For fiscal years beginning before 1996, thrift institutions that qualified under certain definitional tests and other conditions of the Internal Revenue Code were permitted to use certain favorable provisions to calculate their deductions from taxable income for annual additions to their bad debt reserve. A reserve could be established for bad debts on qualifying real property loans, generally secured by interests in real property improved or to be improved, under the percentage of taxable income method or the experience method. The reserve for nonqualifying loans was computed using the experience method. Federal legislation enacted in 1996 repealed the reserve method of accounting for bad debts and the percentage of taxable income method for tax years beginning after 1995 and required savings institutions to recapture or take into income certain portions of their accumulated bad debt reserves. Approximately $1 million of the Bank’s accumulated bad debt reserves would not be recaptured into taxable income unless the Bank makes a “non-dividend distribution” to the Company as described below.
Distributions. If the Bank makes “non-dividend distributions” to the Company, the distributions will be considered to have been made from the Bank’s unrecaptured tax bad debt reserves, including the balance of its reserves as of December 31, 1987, to the extent of the “non-dividend distributions,” and then from the Bank’s supplemental reserve for losses on loans, to the extent of those reserves, and an amount based on the amount distributed, but not more than the amount of those reserves, will be included in the Bank’s taxable income. Non-dividend distributions include distributions in excess of the Bank’s current and accumulated earnings and profits, as calculated for federal income tax purposes, distributions in redemption of stock, and distributions in partial or complete liquidation. Dividends paid out of the Bank’s current or accumulated earnings and profits will not be so included in the Bank’s taxable income.
The amount of additional taxable income triggered by a non-dividend is an amount that, when reduced by the tax attributable to the income, is equal to the amount of the distribution. Therefore, if the Bank makes a non-dividend distribution to the Company, approximately one and one-half times the amount of the distribution not in excess of the amount of the reserves would be includable in income for federal income tax purposes, assuming a 34% federal corporate income tax rate. The Bank does not intend to pay dividends that would result in a recapture of any portion of its bad debt reserves.
State Taxation
The Company is subject to the Pennsylvania Corporation Net Income Tax and Capital Stock and Franchise Tax. The state Corporate Net Income Tax rate for fiscal years ended 2013 and 2012 was 9.99% and was imposed on the Bank’s unconsolidated taxable income for federal purposes with certain adjustments. In general, the Capital Stock Tax is a property tax imposed at the rate of 0.289% of a corporation’s capital stock value, which is determined in accordance with a fixed formula.
ITEM 1A. | RISK FACTORS |
Current economic conditions pose significant challenges that could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
Our success depends to a large degree on the general economic conditions in our market area. Our market has experienced a significant downturn in which we have seen falling home prices, rising foreclosures and an increased level of commercial and consumer delinquencies. If economic conditions do not improve or continue to decline, we could experience any of the following consequences, each of which could further adversely affect our business: demand for our products and services could decline; problem assets and foreclosures may increase; and loan losses may increase.
We could experience further adverse consequences in the event of a prolonged economic downturn in our market due to our exposure to commercial loans across various lines of business. A prolonged economic downturn could adversely affect collateral values or cash flows of the borrowing businesses, and as a result our primary source of repayment could be insufficient to service the debt. Another adverse consequence in the event of a prolonged economic downturn in our market could be the loss of collateral value on commercial and real estate loans that are secured by real estate located in our market area. A further significant decline in real estate values in our market would mean that the collateral for many of our loans would provide less security. As a result, we would be more likely to suffer losses on defaulted loans because our ability to fully recover on defaulted loans by selling the real estate collateral would be diminished.

Future economic conditions in our market will depend on factors outside of our control such as political and market conditions, broad trends in industry and finance, legislative and regulatory changes, changes in government, military and fiscal policies and inflation.
Our emphasis on multi-family and commercial lending may expose us to increased lending risks.
At September 30, 2013, $65.7 million, or 52.4%, of our loan portfolio consisted of multi-family and commercial real estate loans, commercial leases and commercial lines of credit. Commercial lending is an important part of our business strategy and we expect this portion of our loan portfolio to continue to grow. Commercial loans generally expose a lender to greater risk of non-payment and loss and require a commensurately higher loan loss allowance than residential mortgage loans because repayment of the loans often depends on the successful operation of the business and the income stream of the borrowers. Such loans typically involve larger loan balances to single borrowers or groups of related borrowers compared to residential mortgage loans. Also, many of our commercial borrowers have more than one loan outstanding with us. Consequently, an adverse development with respect to one loan or one credit relationship can expose us to a significantly greater risk of loss compared to an adverse development with respect to a residential mortgage loan. Further, unlike residential mortgage loans or multi-family and commercial real estate loans, commercial leases and lines of credit may be secured by collateral other than real estate the value of which may be more difficult to appraise and may be more susceptible to fluctuation in value.
Changes in interest rates could have a material adverse effect on our earnings.
Our net interest income is the interest we earn on loans and investments less the interest we pay on our deposits. Our net interest spread is the difference between the yield we earn on our assets and the interest rate we pay for deposits and our other sources of funding. Changes in interest rates—up or down—could adversely affect our net interest margin and, as a result, our net interest income. Although the yield we earn on our assets and our funding costs tend to move in the same direction in response to changes in interest rates, one can rise or fall faster than the other, causing our net interest margin to expand or contract. Our liabilities tend to be shorter in duration than our assets, so they may adjust faster in response to changes in interest rates. As a result, when interest rates rise, our funding costs may rise faster than the yield we earn on our assets, causing our net interest margin to contract until the yield catches up. This contraction could be more severe following a prolonged period of lower interest rates, as a larger proportion of our fixed-rate residential loan portfolio will have been originated at those lower rates and borrowers may be more reluctant or unable to sell their homes in a higher interest rate environment. Changes in the slope of the “yield curve”—or the spread between short-term and long-term interest rates—could also reduce our net interest margin. Normally, the yield curve is upward sloping, meaning short-term rates are lower than long-term rates. Because our liabilities tend to be shorter in duration than our assets, when the yield curve flattens or even inverts, we could experience pressure on our net interest margin as our cost of funds increases relative to the yield we can earn on our assets.
Our emphasis on residential mortgage loans exposes us to lending risks.
At September 30, 2013, $54.3 million, or 44.2%, of our loan portfolio consisted of residential mortgage loans, and $1.2 million, or 1.0%, of our loan portfolio consisted of home equity loans and second mortgage loans. Recent declines in the housing market have resulted in declines in real estate values in our market areas. These declines in real estate values could cause some of our mortgage loans to be inadequately collateralized, which would expose us to a greater risk of loss if we seek to recover on defaulted loans by selling the real estate collateral.

Regulation of the financial services industry is undergoing major changes, and future legislation could increase our cost of doing business or harm our competitive position.
In 2010 and 2011, in response to the financial crisis and recession that began in 2008, significant regulatory and legislative changes resulted in broad reform and increased regulation impacting financial institutions. The Dodd-Frank Act has created a significant shift in the way financial institutions operate. The Dodd-Frank Act restructured the regulation of depository institutions by merging the Office of Thrift Supervision, which previously regulated the Bank, into the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, and assigning the regulation of savings and loan holding companies, including the Company, to the Federal Reserve Board. The Dodd-Frank Act also created the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to administer consumer protection and fair lending laws, a function that was formerly performed by the depository institution regulators. The Dodd-Frank Act contains various other provisions designed to enhance the regulation of depository institutions and prevent the recurrence of a financial crisis such as occurred in 2008 through 2009. The full impact of the Dodd-Frank Act on our business and operations will not be known for years until regulations implementing the statute are written and adopted. The Dodd-Frank Act may have a material impact on our operations, particularly through increased regulatory burden and compliance costs. Any future legislative changes could have a material impact on our profitability, the value of assets held for investment or collateral for loans. Future legislative changes could require changes to business practices or force us to discontinue businesses and potentially expose us to additional costs, liabilities, enforcement action and reputational risk.
Additionally, in July 2013, the federal banking agencies issued a final rule to revise their risk-based and leverage capital requirements and their method for calculating risk-weighted assets, to make them consistent with the agreements that were reached by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision and certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act. The final rule applies to all depository institutions, top-tier bank holding companies with total consolidated assets of $500 million or more, and top-tier savings and loan holding companies (“banking organizations”). Among other things, the rule establishes a new common equity Tier 1 minimum capital requirement (4.5% of risk-weighted assets), increases the minimum Tier 1 capital to risk-based assets requirement (from 4% to 6% of risk-weighted assets) and assigns a higher risk weight (150%) to exposures that are more than 90 days past due or are on nonaccrual status and to certain commercial real estate facilities that finance the acquisition, development or construction of real property. The final rule also limits a banking organization’s capital distributions and certain discretionary bonus payments if the banking organization does not hold a “capital conservation buffer” consisting of 2.5% of common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets in addition to the amount necessary to meet its minimum risk-based capital requirements. The final rule becomes effective for us on January 1, 2015. The capital conservation buffer requirement will be phased in beginning January 1, 2016 and ending January 1, 2019, when the full capital conservation buffer requirement will be effective.
Compliance with these rules, which are still being analyzed, will impose additional costs on banking entities and their holding companies.
We are dependent upon the services of key executives.
We rely heavily on our President and Chief Executive Officer, Edward F. Seserko and on our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Gary B. Pepper. The loss of Mr. Seserko or Mr. Pepper could have a material adverse impact on our operations because, as a small company, we have fewer management-level personnel that have the experience and expertise to readily replace these individuals. Changes in key personnel and their responsibilities may be disruptive to our business and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. We have employment agreements with Messrs. Seserko and Pepper.
We are subject to federal regulations that seek to protect the Deposit Insurance Fund and the depositors and borrowers of the Bank, and our federal regulators may impose restrictions on our operations that are detrimental to holders of the Company’s common stock.
We are subject to extensive regulation, supervision and examination by the Federal Reserve Board and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, our primary federal regulators, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, as insurer of our deposits. Such regulation and supervision governs the activities in which an institution and its holding company may engage, and are intended primarily for the protection of the insurance fund and the depositors and borrowers of the Bank rather than for holders of the Company’s common stock. Our regulators may subject us to supervisory and enforcement actions, such as the imposition of certain restrictions on our operations, the classification of our assets and the determination of the level of our allowance for loan losses, that are aimed at protecting the insurance fund and the depositors and borrowers of the Bank but that are detrimental to holders of the Company’s common stock. Any change in our regulation or oversight, whether in the form of regulatory policy, regulations, legislation or supervisory action, may have a material impact on our operations.

Higher Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation deposit insurance premiums and assessments will adversely affect our earnings.
The economic recession caused a high level of bank failures, which dramatically increased Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation resolution costs and led to a significant reduction in the balance of the Deposit Insurance Fund. As a result, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation has significantly increased the initial base assessment rates paid by financial institutions for deposit insurance. Increases in the base assessment rate have increased our deposit insurance costs and negatively impacted our earnings. In addition, in May 2009, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation imposed a special assessment on all insured institutions. Our special assessment, which was reflected in earnings for the quarter ended June 30, 2009, was $46,000. In lieu of imposing an additional special assessment, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation required all institutions to prepay their assessments for all of 2010, 2011 and 2012, which for us totaled $442,000. Additional increases in the base assessment rate or additional special assessments would negatively impact our earnings.
Strong competition within our market area could reduce our profits.
We face intense competition in making loans and attracting deposits. This competition has made it more difficult for us to make new loans and at times has forced us to offer higher deposit rates. Price competition for loans and deposits might result in us earning less on our loans and paying more on our deposits, which would reduce net interest income. Competition also makes it more difficult to grow loans and deposits. As of June 30, 2013, the most recent date for which information is available, we held 0.16% of the deposits in Allegheny County, in which both of our offices are located. Many of the institutions with which we compete have substantially greater resources and lending limits than we have and may offer services that we do not provide. We expect competition to increase in the future as a result of legislative, regulatory and technological changes and the continuing trend of consolidation in the financial services industry. Our profitability depends upon our continued ability to compete successfully in our market areas.

ITEM 7. | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
General Overview
We conduct community banking activities by accepting deposits and making loans in our primary market area. Our lending products include residential mortgage loans, multi-family and commercial real estate loans and, to a lesser extent, commercial lines of credit, construction and consumer loans. We also purchase, through an unrelated third party, commercial leases. In addition, we maintain an investment portfolio consisting primarily of government agency debentures to help manage our liquidity and interest rate risk. Our loan and investment portfolios are funded with deposits.
Income. Our primary source of pre-tax income is net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between interest income, which is the income that we earn on our loans and investments, and interest expense, which is the interest that we pay on our deposits. Our net interest income is affected by a variety of factors, including the mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities in our portfolio and changes in levels of interest rates. Growth in net interest income is dependent upon our ability to prudently manage the balance sheet for growth, combined with how successfully we maintain or increase net interest margin, which is net interest income as a percentage of average interest-earning assets.
A secondary source of income is non-interest income, or other income, which is revenue that we receive from providing products and services. The majority of our non-interest income generally comes from service charges (mostly from service charges on deposit accounts).
Provision for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level representing management’s best estimate of known and inherent losses in the loan portfolio, based upon management’s evaluation of the portfolio’s collectability. The allowance is established through the provision for loan losses, which is charged against income. Charge-offs, if any, are charged to the allowance. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. Allocation of the allowance may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in management’s judgment, should be charged off.
Expenses. The non-interest expense we incur in operating our business consists of salaries and benefits expenses, occupancy expenses, computer costs, professional fees, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation premiums and various other miscellaneous expenses.
Our largest non-interest expense is for salaries and benefits, which consists primarily of salaries and wages paid to our employees, payroll taxes, expenses for health insurance, retirement plans, director and committee fees and other employee benefits, including employer 401(k) plan contributions.
Occupancy expenses include the fixed and variable costs of buildings such as depreciation charges, maintenance, real estate taxes and costs of utilities. Depreciation of premises is computed using the straight-line method based on the useful lives of the related assets, which range from five to 50 years for buildings and premises. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the useful life of the asset or the term of the lease.
Computer costs include fees paid to our third-party data processing service and ATM expense.
Professional fees include fees paid to our independent auditors and attorneys.
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation assessments are a specified percentage of assessable deposits, depending on the risk characteristics of the institution.
Other non-interest expense includes expenses for stationery, printing, marketing, supplies, telephone, postage, insurance premiums and other fees and expenses.

Our Business Strategy
The following are the key elements of our business strategy:
• | Improve earnings through continued loan diversification. Historically, we have emphasized the origination of residential mortgage loans secured by homes in our market area. A majority of our residential mortgage loans are secured by owner-occupied residences located in our primary market area. However, a significant percentage of our residential mortgage loans are secured by non-owner-occupied residences housing college and graduate students in the immediate area surrounding our Oakland branch office, which is located adjacent to the University of Pittsburgh and Carnegie Mellon University campuses. In addition, we have also emphasized the purchase and, to a lesser extent, origination of commercial leases and lines of credit. Going forward, we intend to continue to emphasize loan diversification as a means of improving our earnings, as commercial leases and lines of credit generally have higher interest rates than residential mortgage loans. Another benefit of commercial lending is that it improves the interest rate sensitivity of our interest-earning assets because commercial loans typically have shorter terms than residential mortgage loans and frequently have variable interest rates. |
• | Use conservative underwriting practices to maintain asset quality. We have sought to maintain a high level of asset quality and moderate credit risk by using underwriting standards that we believe are conservative. Non-performing loans and accruing loans delinquent 90 days or more were 0.70% and 0.58% of our total loan portfolio at September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Although we intend to continue our efforts to originate commercial real estate and business loans, we intend to adhere to our philosophy of managing lending risks through our conservative approach to lending. |
• | Improve our funding mix by marketing core deposits. Core deposits (demand, money market and savings accounts) comprised 42.3% of our total deposits at September 30, 2013 compared to 37.3% of our total deposits at September 30, 2012. We value core deposits because they represent longer-term customer relationships and a lower cost of funding compared to certificates of deposit. |
• | Actively manage our balance sheet. The recent severe economic recession has underscored the importance of a strong balance sheet. We strive to achieve this through managing our interest rate risk and maintaining strong capital levels and liquidity. In addition, our diverse loan mix improves our net interest margin and reduces the exposure of our net interest income and earnings to interest rate fluctuations. We will continue to manage our interest rate risk by maintaining the diversification in our loan portfolio and monitoring the maturities in our deposit portfolio. Moreover, it is expected that existing minimum regulatory capital ratios may be increased by regulatory agencies in response to market and economic conditions. However, we anticipate that we will continue to exceed any such increase in minimum regulatory capital ratios. |
• | Continued expense control. Management continues to focus on the level of non-interest expense and methods to identify cost savings opportunities, such as reviewing the number of employees, renegotiating key third-party contracts and reducing certain other operating expenses. Our efficiency ratio was 59.98% and 57.77% for the years ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. |
Critical Accounting Policies
The discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations are based on our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions affecting the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of income and expenses. We consider the accounting policies discussed below to be critical accounting policies. The estimates and assumptions that we use are based on historical experience and various other factors and are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions, resulting in a change that could have a material impact on the carrying value of our assets and liabilities and our results of operations.

Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level representing management’s best estimate of known and inherent losses in the loan portfolio, based on management’s evaluation of the portfolio’s collectability. The allowance is established through the provision for loan losses, which is charged against income. Management estimates the allowance balance required using loss experience in particular segments of the portfolio, the size and composition of the loan portfolio, trends and absolute levels of non-performing loans, classified and criticized loans, delinquent loans, trends in risk ratings, trends in industry charge-offs by particular segments and changes in existing general economic and business conditions affecting our lending area and the national economy. Additionally, for loans identified by management as impaired, management will provide a specific provision for loan loss based on the expected discounted cash flows of the loan, or for loans determined to be collateral dependent, a specific provision for loan loss is established based on appraised value less costs to sell. Determining the amount of the allowance for loan losses necessarily involves a high degree of judgment. Among the material estimates required to establish the allowance are: loss exposure at default; the amount and timing of future cash flows on impaired loans; value of collateral; and determination of loss factors to be applied to the various elements of the portfolio. All of these estimates are susceptible to significant change. Although we believe that we use the best information available to establish the allowance for loan losses, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if actual conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the evaluation. Further, current economic conditions have increased the uncertainty inherent in these estimates and assumptions. In addition, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, as an integral part of its examination process, periodically reviews our allowance for loan losses. Such agency may require us to recognize adjustments to the allowance based on its judgments about information available to it at the time of its examination. A large loss could deplete the allowance and require increased provisions to replenish the allowance, which would negatively affect earnings. For additional discussion, see“—Risk Management — Analysis and Determination of the Allowance for Loan Losses”below and the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in this annual report.
Deferred Income Taxes. We use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. We exercise significant judgment in evaluating the amount and timing of recognition of the resulting tax liabilities and assets. These judgments require us to make projections of future taxable income. The judgments and estimates we make in determining our deferred tax assets, which are inherently subjective, are reviewed on a continual basis as regulatory and business factors change. Any reduction in estimated future taxable income may require us to record a valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets.
Valuation and Other-Than-Temporary Impairment of Investment Securities. We evaluate our investment securities portfolio on a quarterly basis for indicators of other-than-temporary impairment, which requires significant judgment. We assess whether other-than-temporary impairment has occurred when the fair value of a debt security is less than the amortized cost basis at the balance sheet date. Under these circumstances, other-than-temporary impairment is considered to have occurred: (1) if we intend to sell the security; (2) if it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis; or (3) the present value of the expected cash flows is not sufficient to recover the entire amortized cost basis. For securities that we do not expect to sell or that we are not more likely than not to be required to sell, the other-than-temporary impairment is separated into credit and non-credit components. The credit-related other-than-temporary impairment, represented by the expected loss in principal, is recognized in non-interest income, while noncredit-related other-than-temporary impairment is recognized in other comprehensive income (loss). Noncredit-related other-than-temporary impairment results from other factors, including increased liquidity spreads and extension of the security. For securities which we do expect to sell, all other-than-temporary impairment is recognized in earnings. Other-than-temporary impairment is presented in the income statement on a gross basis with a reduction for the amount of other-than-temporary impairment recognized in other comprehensive income (loss). Once an other-than-temporary impairment is recorded, when future cash flows can be reasonably estimated, future cash flows are re-allocated between interest and principal cash flows to provide for a level-yield on the security.

Financial Condition
General. At September 30, 2013, assets were $141.0 million, an increase of $2.5 million, or 1.8%, from $138.5 million at September 30, 2012 due to an increase in loans, offset by a decrease in securities. Securities decreased $4.8 million, or 34.6%, during the year ended September 30, 2013 primarily as a result of maturities, calls, and principal repayments of $12.5 million, offset by purchases of $8.2 million in longer-term government agency debentures, reflecting investment of excess deposits. The securities purchased were classified as available for sale in order to provide additional liquidity sources. Loans receivable, net, increased by $9.0 million to $121.4 million at September 30, 2013 from $112.4 million at September 30, 2012, primarily due to increases in multi-family real estate and construction loans. These increases were primarily the result of our continued offering of competitive rates, strong customer service and continued borrowings by long-standing relationships, as well as improvements in market conditions and loan demand. Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $929,000, or 11.4%, as excess cash was used to fund loan growth.
Liabilities were $119.0 million at September 30, 2013, an increase of $2.9 million, or 2.5%, from $116.1 million at September 30, 2012. Deposits increased $3.0 million to $117.5 million during the year ended September 30, 2013 primarily as a result of increase in savings accounts and money market accounts offset by a decline in certificates of deposit.
Stockholders’ equity decreased $400,000 to $22.0 million at September 30, 2013 from $22.4 million at September 30, 2012. The decrease was primarily the result of net income of $1.4 million, offset by dividends of $0.32 per share at a cost of $411,000 and the repurchase of 69,578 shares at a cost of $1.2 million.

Federal law requires a member institution of the Federal Home Loan Bank System to hold stock of its district Federal Home Loan Bank according to a predetermined formula. This stock is carried at cost and was $237,400 at September 30, 2013. The Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh is permitted to increase the amount of capital stock owned by a member company to 6.00% of a member’s advances, plus 1.50% of the unused borrowing capacity.
At September 30, 2013, we had no investments in a single company or entity (other than state or U.S. Government-sponsored entity securities) that had an aggregate book value in excess of 10% of our equity at September 30, 2013.
The following table sets forth the stated maturities and weighted average yields of investment securities at September 30, 2013. Weighted average yields on tax-exempt securities are presented on a tax equivalent basis. Certain mortgage related securities have adjustable interest rates and will reprice annually within the various maturity ranges. These repricing schedules are not reflected in the tables below.

Cash and Cash Equivalents. Our primary source of short-term liquidity is comprised of branch working cash and interest-bearing deposits in other banks. Cash and cash equivalents decreased $900,000 to $7.2 million during the year ended September 30, 2013 primarily as a result of decreased cash balances in interest-bearing accounts in other banks, which was used to fund loan growth.
Deposits. Our primary source of funds is our deposit accounts, which are comprised of non-interest-bearing demand accounts, interest-bearing NOW accounts, money market accounts, savings accounts and certificates of deposit.

Results of Operations for the Years Ended September 30, 2013 and 2012
Overview.
Years Ended September 30, | ||||||||
2013 | 2012 | |||||||
(Dollars in thousands, except per share amounts) | ||||||||
Net Income | $ | 1,393 | $ | 1,462 | ||||

For the year ended September 30, 2013, net income decreased to $1.4 million from $1.5 million for the 2012 fiscal year primarily as a result of a decrease in total interest income and an increase in non-interest expense offset by a decrease in deposit interest expense.
Net Interest Income. For the year ended September 30, 2013, net interest income increased $9,000 compared to the year ended September 30, 2012 due to a decrease in interest expense, offset by a decrease in interest income.
Interest income decreased $100,000 to $6.8 million for the year ended September 30, 2013 from $6.9 million for the year ended September 30, 2012. This decrease was primarily the result of a $201,000 increase in interest income on loans to $6.4 million from $6.2 million for fiscal 2012, as a result of a 27 basis point decrease in the average yield and a $5.8 million decrease in the average balance of investment securities, offset by a $9.7 million increase in the average balance of loans receivable. Interest income on securities and interest-bearing deposits decreased $354,000 from $667,000 to $313,000 for fiscal 2013 as a result of a $5.8 million decrease in the average balance and a 106 basis point decrease in the average yield.
Interest expense decreased $163,000 for the year ended September 30, 2013 compared to the year ended September 30, 2012 due primarily to a decrease in the average cost of deposits. Average interest-bearing liabilities decreased $161,000 in fiscal 2013 to $111.7 million from $111.9 million in fiscal 2012. The decrease in the average cost of deposits was primarily due to an $84,000 decrease in interest paid on certificates of deposit due to a 12 basis point decrease in the average cost and a $53,000 decrease in interest paid on IRA accounts due to a 61 basis point decrease in the average cost.

Average Balances and Yields. The following table presents information regarding average balances of assets and liabilities, the total dollar amounts of interest income and dividends from average interest-earning assets, the total dollar amounts of interest expense on average interest-bearing liabilities, and the average yields and costs. The yields and costs for the periods indicated are derived by dividing income or expense by the average balances of assets or liabilities, respectively, for the periods presented. For purposes of this table, average balances have been calculated using month-end balances. Management does not believe that the use of month-end balances instead of daily average balances has caused any material differences in the information presented. Loan fees are included in interest income on loans and are insignificant. Yields are not presented on a tax-equivalent basis. Any adjustments necessary to present yields on a tax-equivalent basis are insignificant.

Rate/Volume Analysis. The following table sets forth the effects of changing rates and volumes on our net interest income. The rate column shows the effects attributable to changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by current volume). The volume column shows the effects attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior rate). The net column represents the sum of the prior columns. For purposes of this table, changes attributable to changes in both rate and volume that cannot be segregated have been allocated proportionally based on the changes due to rate and the changes due to volume.

Provision for Loan Losses. For the year ended September 30, 2013, the provision for loan losses increased $15,000 to $157,000 from $142,000 for the year ended September 30, 2012. The increase in the provision for loan losses was due to an increase of $9.0 million in net loans receivable for the year ended September 30, 2013, offset by improvements in asset quality. The risk-based approach to calculating the loan portfolio’s general valuation allowance assigns a risk classification and subsequent reserve percentage to every loan, either individually or as a classification, that is in our portfolio. Individual loan risk classifications are adjusted annually, on an as needed basis, when the loans are internally and externally reviewed. Total non-performing residential loans decreased to $0 at September 30, 2013 from $660,000 at September 30, 2012. A commercial lease with a balance of $442,000 as of September 30, 2013 was restructured during the year and is considered an impaired loan. We had no charge-offs for the years ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.
An analysis of the changes in the allowance for loan losses is presented under“— Risk Management — Analysis and Determination of the Allowance for Loan Losses.”

The increase in non-interest expense for the year ended September 30, 2013 was primarily due to a $108,000 increase in salary and benefits expense, and an $18,000 increase in other expenses. The increase in salary and benefits expense was related to a $60,000 increase in expense related to the ESOP and incentive benefit plans, a $60,000 increase in salary expense, offset by a $12,000 decrease in benefits expense. The increase in data processing expense was related to additional technology services.
Income Taxes. We recorded income tax expense of $749,000 for the year ended September 30, 2013 compared to an income tax expense of $812,000 for the year ended September 30, 2012. This change in the provision for income taxes was primarily related to a decrease in income before tax. The effective tax rate for fiscal year 2013 was 34.95% compared to 35.71% for the 2012 fiscal year.

Risk Management
Overview. Managing risk is an essential part of successfully managing a financial institution. Our most prominent risk exposures are credit risk, interest rate risk and market risk. Credit risk is the risk of not collecting the interest and/or the principal balance of a loan or investment when it is due. Interest rate risk is the potential reduction of net interest income as a result of changes in interest rates. Market risk arises from fluctuations in interest rates that may result in changes in the values of financial instruments, such as available-for-sale securities, that are accounted for on a mark-to-market basis. Other risks that we face are operational risks, liquidity risks and reputation risk. Operational risks include risks related to fraud, regulatory compliance, processing errors, technology and disaster recovery. Liquidity risk is the possible inability to fund obligations to depositors, lenders or borrowers due to unforeseen circumstances. Reputation risk is the risk that negative publicity or press, whether true or not, could cause a decline in our customer base or revenue.
Credit Risk Management. Our strategy for credit risk management focuses on having well-defined credit policies and uniform underwriting criteria and providing prompt attention to potential problem loans. When a borrower fails to make a required loan payment, we take a number of steps to attempt to have the borrower cure the delinquency and restore the loan to current status. When the loan becomes 15 days past due, a late notice is generated and sent to the borrower. A second notice is sent and phone calls are made ten days later. If payment is not received by the 30th day of delinquency, a further notification is sent to the borrower. If payment is not received by the 45th day of delinquency, a notice is sent to the borrower advising them that they have a specified period of time to cure their default before legal action begins. If no successful workout can be achieved, after a loan becomes 90 days delinquent, we typically commence foreclosure or other legal proceedings. If a foreclosure action is instituted and the loan is not brought current, paid in full, or refinanced before the foreclosure sale, the real property securing the loan generally is sold at or subsequent to foreclosure. We also may consider loan workout arrangements with certain borrowers under certain circumstances. Management reports to the board of directors or a committee of the board monthly regarding the amount of loans delinquent more than 30 days, all loans in foreclosure and all foreclosed and repossessed property that we own.
Analysis of Nonperforming and Classified Assets. We consider repossessed assets, loans that are 90 days or more past due, and troubled debt restructurings to be non-performing assets. Typically, payments received on a non-accrual loan are applied to the outstanding principal and interest as determined at the time of collection of the loan.
Real estate that we acquire as a result of foreclosure or by deed-in-lieu of foreclosure is classified as foreclosed assets until it is sold. When property is acquired, it is initially recorded at the lower of its cost or fair value, less estimate selling expenses. Holding costs and declines in fair value after acquisition of the property result in charges against income.
The following table provides information with respect to our non-performing assets at the dates indicated. We had one troubled debt restructuring and no loans past due 90 days and still accruing interest at the dates indicated.

Federal regulations require us to review and classify our assets on a regular basis. In addition, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency has the authority to identify problem assets and, if appropriate, require them to be classified. There are three classifications for problem assets: substandard, doubtful and loss. “Substandard assets” must have one or more defined weaknesses and are characterized by the distinct possibility that we will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. “Doubtful assets” have the weaknesses of substandard assets with the additional characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values questionable, and there is a high possibility of loss. An asset classified “loss” is considered uncollectible and of such little value that continuance as an asset of the institution is not warranted. We also utilize a “special mention” category, described as assets which do not currently expose us to a sufficient degree of risk to warrant classification but do possess credit deficiencies or potential weaknesses deserving our close attention. If we classify an asset as loss, we reserve an amount equal to 100% of the portion of the asset classified loss.
The following table shows the aggregate amounts of our classified assets at the dates indicated.

At September 30, 2013, Eureka Bank had nine loans classified as special mention, which were comprised of six one- to four-family residential real estate loans, one commercial line of credit, and two commercial leases. At September 30, 2012, Eureka Bank had eleven loans classified as special mention, which were comprised of nine one- to four-family residential real estate loans and two commercial lines of credit.
Other than as disclosed in the above tables, there are no other loans at September 30, 2013 that management has serious doubts about the ability of the borrowers to comply with the present loan repayment terms.

At September 30, 2013, delinquent loans were comprised of two one- to four-family residential real estate loans, one home equity line of credit, and one commercial line of credit. At September 30, 2012, delinquent loans were comprised of eight one- to four-family residential real estate loans and two commercial lines of credit.
Analysis and Determination of the Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. We evaluate the need to establish allowances against losses on loans on a quarterly basis. When additional allowances are necessary, a provision for loan losses is charged to earnings.
Our methodology for assessing the appropriateness of the allowance for loan losses consists of: (1) a valuation allowance on impaired loans; and (2) a valuation allowance on the remainder of the loan portfolio. Although we determine the amount of each element of the allowance separately, the entire allowance for loan losses is available for the entire portfolio.
Allowance on Impaired Loans. We establish an allowance for loans that are individually evaluated and determined to be impaired. The allowance is determined by utilizing one of the three impairment measurement methods. A loan is impaired when, based upon current information and events, it is probable that we will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Management performs individual assessments of larger impaired loans and, to a lesser extent, certain non-impaired loans, to determine the existence of loss exposure and, where applicable, the extent of loss exposure based upon the present value of expected future cash flows available to pay the loan, or based upon the estimated realizable collateral where a loan is collateral dependent. Generally, loans excluded from the individual impairment analysis are collectively evaluated by management to estimate reserves for loan losses inherent in those loans.
Allowance on the Remainder of the Loan Portfolio. We establish another allowance for loans that are not determined to be impaired. Management determines the appropriate loss factor for each group of loans with similar risk characteristics within the portfolio based on loss experience and qualitative and environmental factors for loans in each group. Loan categories will represent groups of loans with similar risk characteristics and may include types of loans categorized by product, large credit exposures, concentrations, loan grade, or any other characteristic that causes a loan’s risk profile to be similar to another. We consider qualitative or environmental factors that are likely to cause estimated credit losses associated with our existing portfolio to differ from historical loss experience including changes in lending policies and procedures; changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio; changes in experience, ability and depth of loan management; changes in the volume and severity of past due loans, non-accrual loans and adversely graded or classified loans; changes in the quality of the loan review system; changes in the value of underlying collateral for collateral dependent loans; the existence of or changes in concentrations of credit; changes in economic or business conditions; and the effect of competition, legal and regulatory requirements on estimated credit losses.
We identify loans that may need to be charged-off as a loss by reviewing all delinquent loans, classified loans and other loans about which management may have concerns about collectability. For individually reviewed loans, the borrower’s inability to make payments under the terms of the loan or a shortfall in collateral value would result in our charging off the loan or the portion of the loan that was impaired.
The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, as an integral part of its examination process, periodically reviews our allowance for loan losses. The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency may require us to make additional provisions for loan losses based on judgments different from ours.
At September 30, 2013, our allowance for loan losses was $1.3 million, or 1.06% of loans receivable, net and 149.93% of non-performing loans. At September 30, 2012, our allowance for loan losses was $1.1 million, or 1.00% of loans receivable, net and 173.0% of non-performing loans. Non-performing loans at September 30, 2013, were $866,000 or 0.70% of loans receivable, net compared to $660,000, or 0.58% of loans receivable, net at September 30, 2012. The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level that represents management’s best estimate of losses in the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. However, the allowance for loan losses may not be adequate to cover losses which may be realized in the future and additional provisions for loan losses may be required.

Although we believe that we use the best information available to establish the allowance for loan losses, future adjustments to the allowance for loan losses may be necessary and our results of operations could be adversely affected if circumstances differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the determinations. Furthermore, while we believe we have established our allowance for loan losses in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, in reviewing our loan portfolio, may request that we increase our allowance for loan losses based on judgments different from ours. In addition, because future events affecting borrowers and collateral cannot be predicted with certainty, increases may be necessary should the quality of any loans deteriorate as a result of the factors discussed above. Any material increase in the allowance for loan losses may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Interest Rate Risk Management. Because the majority of our assets and liabilities are sensitive to changes in interest rates, our most significant form of market risk is interest rate risk. We are vulnerable to an increase in interest rates that may cause our interest-bearing liabilities to increase at a rate faster than our interest-earning assets, thereby negatively affecting net income. We manage the interest rate sensitivity of our interest-bearing liabilities and interest-earning assets in an effort to minimize the adverse effects of changes in the interest rate environment. To reduce the volatility of our earnings, we have sought to improve the match between asset and liability maturities and rates, while maintaining an acceptable interest rate spread. Our strategy for managing interest rate risk generally is to:
• | originate multi-family and commercial real estate loans with adjustable-rate features or fixed-rate loans with shorter maturities than one- to four-family residential mortgages; |
• | purchase commercial leases with adjustable-rate features or fixed-rate loans with shorter maturities than one- to four-family residential mortgages; |
• | attract low-cost checking and transaction accounts, which tend to be less interest rate sensitive; |
• | maintain interest-bearing deposits, federal funds and U.S. Government securities with short to intermediate terms; and |
• | maintain an investment portfolio that provides stable cash flows, thereby providing investable funds in varying interest rate cycles. |
We have made a significant effort to increase our level of lower-cost deposits as a method of enhancing profitability. At September 30, 2013, we had 42.3% of our deposits in lower-cost passbook and interest-bearing and non-interest bearing demand accounts compared to 37.3% at September 30, 2012. Such deposits have traditionally remained relatively stable and would be expected to be only moderately affected by changes in interest rates.
Net Portfolio Value Analysis. We use a net portfolio value analysis prepared by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency to review our level of interest rate risk. Such analysis measures interest rate risk by computing changes in net portfolio value of our cash flows from assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet items in the event of a range of assumed changes in market interest rates. Net portfolio value represents the market value of portfolio equity and is equal to the market value of assets minus the market value of liabilities, with adjustments made for off-balance sheet items. This analysis assesses the risk of loss in market risk-sensitive instruments in the event of a sudden and sustained 100 to 300 basis point increase or 100 basis point decrease in market interest rates with no effect given to any steps that we might take to counter the effect of that interest rate movement. Because of the low level of market interest rates, these analyses are not performed for decreases of more than 100 basis points.

The following table, which is based on information that we provide to the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, presents the change in the net portfolio value of the Bank at September 30, 2013, which is the most recent date for which information is available, that would occur in the event of an immediate change in interest rates based on Office of the Comptroller of the Currency assumptions, with no effect given to any steps that we might take to counteract that change.

The changes in our net portfolio value shown in the preceding table that would occur reflects: (1) that a substantial portion of our interest-earning assets are fixed-rate loans and fixed-rate investment securities; and (2) the shorter duration of deposits, which reprice more frequently in response to changes in market interest rates.
The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency uses various assumptions in assessing interest rate risk. These assumptions relate to interest rates, loan prepayment rates, deposit decay rates and the market values of certain assets under differing interest rate scenarios, among others. As with any method of measuring interest rate risk, certain shortcomings are inherent in the methods of analyses presented in the foregoing table. For example, although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or periods to repricing, they may react in different degrees to changes in market interest rates. Also, the interest rates on certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in market interest rates, while interest rates on other types may lag behind changes in market rates. Additionally, certain assets, such as adjustable-rate mortgage loans, have features that restrict changes in interest rates on a short-term basis and over the life of the asset. Further, in the event of a change in interest rates, expected rates of prepayments on loans and early withdrawals from certificates could deviate significantly from those assumed in calculating the table. Prepayment rates can have a significant impact on interest income. Because of the large percentage of loans and mortgage-backed securities we hold, rising or falling interest rates have a significant impact on the prepayment speeds of our earning assets that in turn affect the rate sensitivity position. When interest rates rise, prepayments tend to slow. When interest rates fall, prepayments tend to rise. Our asset sensitivity would be reduced if prepayments slow and vice versa. While we believe these assumptions to be reasonable, assumed prepayment rates may not approximate actual future mortgage-backed security and loan repayment activity.
Liquidity Management. Liquidity is the ability to meet current and future financial obligations of a short-term nature. Our primary sources of funds consist of cash and cash equivalents, deposit inflows, wholesale borrowings, loan repayments and maturities and liquidation and sales of securities. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and securities are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows, loan prepayments and sales of securities are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition.
We regularly adjust our investments in liquid assets based upon our assessment of: (1) expected loan demand; (2) expected deposit flows; (3) yields available on interest-earning deposits and securities; and (4) the objectives of our asset/liability management policy. We use a variety of measures to assess our liquidity needs, which are provided to our board of directors on a regular basis.
38
Table of Contents
Our most liquid assets are cash and cash equivalents. The levels of these assets depend on our operating, financing, lending and investing activities during any given period. Cash and cash equivalents totaled $7.2 million at September 30, 2013. In addition, at September 30, 2013, we had the ability to borrow a total of approximately $70.3 million from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh, of which we had no advances outstanding.
At September 30, 2013, we had $2.4 million in loan commitments outstanding, which consisted of commitments to grant $2.0 million in loans and $367,000 in commercial leases and lines of credit. At September 30, 2013, we had $5.7 million in undisbursed lines of credit, $504,000 in undisbursed loans in process and $2.1 million in undisbursed construction loans.
Certificates of deposit due within one year of September 30, 2013 totaled $35.6 million, representing 52.6% of certificates of deposit at September 30, 2013. We believe, based on past experience, that we will retain a significant portion of these deposits at maturity. However, if these maturing deposits do not remain with us, we will be required to seek other sources of funds, including other certificates of deposit and borrowings. Depending on market conditions, we may be required to pay higher rates on such deposits or other borrowings than we currently pay on the certificates of deposit due on or before September 30, 2013.

Our primary investing activities are the origination of loans and the purchase and sale of securities. Our primary financing activities consist of activity in deposit accounts. Deposit flows are affected by the overall levels of interest rates, the interest rates and products offered by us and our local competitors and other factors. We generally manage the pricing of our deposits to be competitive and to increase core deposit relationships. Occasionally, we offer promotional rates on certain deposit products to attract deposits.

Capital Management. We have managed our capital to maintain strong protection for depositors and creditors. We are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, including a risk-based capital measure. The risk-based capital guidelines include both a definition of capital and a framework for calculating risk-weighted assets by assigning balance sheet assets and off-balance sheet items to broad risk categories. At September 30, 2013, we exceeded all of our regulatory capital requirements. We are considered “well capitalized” under regulatory guidelines. See“Regulation and Supervision — Federal Banking Regulations — Capital Requirements”and the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in this annual report.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. In the normal course of operations, we engage in a variety of financial transactions that, in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, are not recorded in our financial statements. These transactions involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit, interest rate and liquidity risk. Such transactions are used primarily to manage customers’ requests for funding and take the form of loan commitments, letters of credit and lines of credit. For information about our loan commitments and unused lines of credit, see note 14 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
For the years ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, we engaged in no off-balance sheet transactions reasonably likely to have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Impact of Recent Accounting Pronouncements
For a discussion of the impact of recent accounting pronouncements, see note 1 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
Effect of Inflation and Changing Prices
The financial statements and related financial data presented in this annual report have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which require the measurement of financial condition and operating results in terms of historical dollars without considering the change in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The primary impact of inflation on our operations is reflected in increased operating costs. Unlike most industrial companies, virtually all the assets and liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates generally have a more significant impact on a financial institution’s performance than do general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the prices of goods and services.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company’s management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Based upon their evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective for the purpose of ensuring that the information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”): (1) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (2) is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In addition, based on that evaluation, no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting occurred during the quarter or year ended September 30, 2013 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The internal control process has been designed under our supervision to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company’s financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2013, utilizing the framework established inInternal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on this assessment, management has determined that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2013 is effective.
Our internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that pertain to the maintenance of records that accurately and fairly reflect, in reasonable detail, transactions and dispositions of assets; and provide reasonable assurances that: (1) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States; (2) receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and the directors of the Company; and (3) unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements are prevented or timely detected.
All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Board of Directors and Stockholders
Eureka Financial Corp. and subsidiary
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Eureka Financial Corp. and subsidiary (the “Company”) as of September 30, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Eureka Financial Corp. and subsidiary as of September 30, 2013 and 2012, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

EUREKA FINANCIAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Eureka Financial Corp. and subsidiary (the “Company”) provide a variety of financial services to individuals and corporate customers through its main office and branch located in southwestern Pennsylvania. The Company’s primary deposit products are interest-bearing checking accounts, savings accounts, and certificates of deposits. Its primary lending products are single-family residential loans, multi-family and commercial real estate loans, and commercial leases.
Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation
Eureka Financial Corp. (“Eureka Financial”) is a Maryland corporation and stock holding company established in 2011, whose wholly owned subsidiary is Eureka Bank (the “Bank”), a federally chartered stock savings bank located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
The Bank operates as a community-oriented financial institution offering traditional financial services to consumers and businesses in the Oakland and Shaler sections of the Pittsburgh metropolitan area. The Bank attracts deposits from the general public and uses those funds to originate one- to four-family real estate, multi-family and commercial real estate, commercial loans, lines of credit, construction, and consumer loans and to purchase commercial leases. The Bank generally holds all its loans for investment. The Bank is subject to regulation and supervision by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, while Eureka Financial is subject to regulation and supervision by the Federal Reserve Board.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Eureka Financial and its wholly owned subsidiary, the Bank. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and with general practices within the banking industry. In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the Consolidated Balance Sheet date and reported amounts of revenue and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Investment and Mortgage-Backed Securities
Investment securities and mortgage-backed securities are classified at the time of purchase, based on management’s intention and ability to hold such securities to maturity, as securities held to maturity or securities available for sale. Debt securities acquired with the intent and ability to hold to maturity are stated at cost adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount that are computed using the level yield method and recognized as adjustments of interest income. Debt securities have been classified as available for sale to serve principally as a source of liquidity. Unrealized holding gains and losses for available-for-sale securities are reported in the other comprehensive income component of stockholders’ equity, net of tax, until realized. Realized securities gains and losses are computed using the specific identification method. Interest and dividends on investment securities are recognized as income when earned.
Securities are evaluated on at least a quarterly basis and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such an evaluation to determine whether a decline in their value is other than temporary. For debt securities, management considers whether the present value of cash flows expected to be collected are less than the security’s amortized cost basis (the difference defined as the credit loss), the magnitude and duration of the decline, the reasons underlying the decline, and the Company’s intent to sell the security or whether it is more likely than not that the Company would be required to sell the security before its anticipated recovery in market value, to determine whether the loss in value is other than temporary. Once a decline in value is determined to be other than temporary, if the Company does not intend to sell the security, and it is more likely than not that it will not be required to sell the security, before recovery of the security’s amortized cost basis, the charge to earnings is limited to the amount of credit loss. Any remaining difference between fair value and amortized cost (the difference defined as the noncredit portion) is recognized in other comprehensive income, net of applicable taxes. Otherwise, the entire difference between fair value and amortized cost is charged to earnings.

Loans
Loans are reported at their unpaid principal balance plus loan premiums less any undisbursed portion of loans, unamortized loan fees and costs, and allowance for loan losses. Loan origination fees and certain direct loan origination costs are deferred and amortized over the contractual lives of the related loans, as an adjustment of yield (interest income), using the level yield method. Premiums on loans are amortized over the contractual lives of the related loans, using the level yield method.
Recognition of interest by the accrual method is generally discontinued when interest or principal payments are over 90 days in arrears on a contractual basis, or when other factors indicate that the collection of such amounts is doubtful. At the time a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, an allowance for uncollected interest is recorded in the current period for previously accrued and uncollected interest. Interest on such loans is either applied against principal or recognized as income when payments are received. A loan is returned to accrual status when interest or principal payments are no longer more than 90 days in arrears on a contractual basis and factors indicating doubtful collectability no longer exist.
Allowance for Loan Losses
An allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level that represents management’s best estimate of losses known and inherent in the loan portfolio that are both probable and reasonable to estimate. The allowance is decreased by loan charge-offs, increased by subsequent recoveries of loans previously charged-off, and then adjusted, via either a charge or credit to operations, to an amount determined by management to be necessary. Loans or portions thereof are charged-off when, after collection efforts are exhausted, they are determined to be uncollectible. Management of the Company, in determining the allowance for loan losses, considers the losses inherent in its loan portfolio and changes in the nature and volume of its loan activities, along with the general economic and real estate market conditions. The Company utilizes a two-tier approach: (1) identification of impaired loans and establishment of a specific allowance allocation on such loans, and (2) establishment of general valuation allowances on the remainder of its loan portfolio.
The Company maintains a loan review system which allows for a periodic review of its loan portfolio and the early identification of potential impaired loans. Such system takes into consideration, among other things, delinquency status, size of loans, type of collateral, and financial condition of the borrowers. Specific loan loss allowances are established for identified loans based on a review of such information and/or appraisals of the underlying collateral. General loan losses are based upon a combination of factors including, but not limited to, actual loan loss experience, size and composition of the loan portfolio, and current economic conditions and management’s judgment. Although management believes that specific and general loan losses are established in accordance with management’s best estimate, actual losses are dependent upon future events and, as such, further additions to the level of loan loss allowances may be necessary.
A loan evaluated for impairment is deemed to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. All loans identified as impaired are evaluated independently. The Company does not aggregate such loans for evaluation purposes. Payments received on impaired loans are applied first to interest receivable and then to principal.
Premises and Equipment
Land is carried at cost. Building and improvements, furniture, fixtures and equipment, vehicles, and leasehold improvements are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation computed on the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:
Years | ||
Building and improvements | 5—50 | |
Furniture, fixtures and equipment | 3—10 | |
Leasehold improvements | Shorter of useful lives or lease term | |
Vehicles | 5 |
Costs for maintenance and repairs are expensed currently while costs of major additions or improvements are capitalized.

Restricted Investment in Bank Stock
As a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh (the “FHLB”), the Bank is required to maintain a minimum amount of FHLB stock. The investment is required by law according to a predetermined formula. This investment is carried at cost.
Management evaluates the restricted stock for impairment. Management’s determination of whether these investments are impaired is based on their assessment of the ultimate recoverability of their cost rather than by recognizing temporary declines in value. The determination of whether a decline affects the ultimate recoverability of their cost is influenced by criteria such as: (1) the significance of the decline in net assets of the FHLB as compared with the capital stock amount for the FHLB and the length of time this situation has persisted; (2) commitments by the FHLB to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance of the FHLB; (3) the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on institutions and, accordingly, on the customer base of the FHLB; and (4) the liquidity position of the FHLB. There was no impairment of the FHLB stock as of September 30, 2013 or 2012.
Other Real Estate Owned
Real estate properties acquired through or in lieu of loan foreclosure are initially recorded at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated selling cost at the date of foreclosure. Any write-downs based on the asset’s fair value at the date of acquisition are charged to the allowance for loan losses. Costs of significant property improvements are capitalized, whereas costs relating to holding property are expensed. The portion of interest costs relating to development of real estate is capitalized. Valuations are periodically performed by management, and any subsequent write-downs are recorded as a charge to operations, if necessary, to reduce the carrying value of a property to the lower of its cost or fair value less cost to sell.
Income Taxes
The Company uses an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for cumulative differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense is the tax payable or refundable for the period plus or minus the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Eureka Financial and the Bank file a consolidated federal income tax return.
Eureka Financial has entered into a tax allocation agreement with the Bank as a result of their status as members of an affiliated group under the Internal Revenue Code. The tax allocation agreement generally provides that Eureka Financial will file consolidated federal income tax returns with the Bank. The tax allocation agreement also formalizes procedures for allocating the consolidated tax liability of the group among its members and establishes procedures for the payments by the Bank to Eureka Financial for tax liabilities attributable to the Bank.
The Company prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Benefits from tax positions should be recognized in the financial statements only when it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authority that would have full knowledge of all relevant information. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be derecognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is no longer met.
There is currently no liability for uncertain tax positions and no known unrecognized tax benefits. The Company recognizes, when applicable, interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes in the Consolidated Statement of Income. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal or state income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2005 and for the year 2010.

Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense totaled $4,685 and $14,526 for the years ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share exclude dilution and are computed by dividing net income by weighted-average shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share are computed by dividing net income by weighted-average shares outstanding plus potential common stock resulting from dilutive stock options.
The following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and dilutive earnings per share computations for net income for the years ended September 30, 2013 and 2012:

As of September 30, 2013 and 2012, there were 25,961 shares of restricted stock outstanding with a grant price of $15.24 not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because to do so would be anti-dilutive.
Options to purchase 13,681 and 64,907 shares of common stock at $15.24 per share were outstanding at September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share as they were anti-dilutive due to the exercise price being greater than the average market price.
Off-Balance Sheet Related Financial Instruments
In the ordinary course of business, the Company has entered into commitments to extend credit, including commitments under commercial lines of credit, and standby letters of credit. Such financial instruments are recorded when they are funded.
Comprehensive Income
The Company is required to present comprehensive income in a full set of general-purpose financial statements for all periods presented. Other comprehensive income is comprised of unrealized holding gains (losses) on investment securities available for sale.

Certain comparative amounts from the prior-year period have been reclassified to conform to current-period classifications. Such reclassifications had no effect on net income and stockholders’ equity.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-11,Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. The amendments in this ASU affect all entities that have financial instruments and derivative instruments that are either (1) offset in accordance with either Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 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 ASC 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 ASU. 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 October 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-06,Business Combinations (Topic 805): Subsequent Accounting for an Indemnification Asset Recognized at the Acquisition Date as a Result of a Government-Assisted Acquisition of a Financial Institution. Accounting for a business combination requires that at each subsequent reporting date, an acquirer must measure an indemnification asset on the same basis as the indemnified liability or asset, subject to any contractual limitations on its amount, and, for an indemnification asset that is not subsequently measured at its fair value, management’s assessment of the collectability of the indemnification asset. The objective of this ASU is to address the diversity in practice about how to interpret the termson the same basisandcontractual limitationswhen subsequently measuring an indemnification asset recognized in a government-assisted (Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or National Credit Union Administration) acquisition of a financial institution that includes a loss-sharing agreement (indemnification agreement). This ASU is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.
In January 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-01,Balance Sheet (Topic 210):Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. The main objective in this ASU is to address implementation issues about the scope of ASU No. 2011-11,Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities.The amendments clarify that the scope of ASU 2011-11 applies to derivatives accounted for in accordance with Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, including bifurcated embedded derivatives, repurchase agreements and reverse repurchase agreements, and securities borrowing and securities lending transactions that are either offset in accordance with ASC Section 210-20-45 or Section 815-10-45 or subject to an enforceable master arrangement or similar agreement. Entities with other types of financial assets and financial liabilities subject to a master netting arrangement or similar agreement also are affected because these amendments make them no longer subject to the disclosure requirements in ASU 2011-11. An entity is required to apply the amendments for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. This ASU is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-04,Liabilities (Topic 405):Obligations Resulting from Joint and Several Liability Arrangements for Which the Total Amount of the Obligation Is Fixed at the Reporting Date. The objective of the amendments in this ASU is to provide guidance for the recognition, measurement, and disclosure of obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements for which the total amount of the obligation within the scope of this guidance is fixed at the reporting date, except for obligations addressed within existing guidance in U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Examples of obligations within the scope of this ASU include debt arrangements, other contractual obligations, and settled litigation and judicial rulings. U.S. GAAP does not include specific guidance on accounting for such obligations with joint and several liability, which has resulted in diversity in practice. Some entities record the entire amount under the joint and several liability arrangement on the basis of the concept of a liability and the guidance that must be met to extinguish a liability. Other entities record less than the total amount of the obligation, such as an amount allocated, an amount corresponding to the proceeds received, or the portion of the amount the entity agreed to pay among its co-obligors, on the basis of the guidance for contingent liabilities. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. This ASU is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements. This ASU is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.
In April 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-07,Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205): Liquidation Basis of Accounting.The amendments in this ASU are being issued to clarify when an entity should apply the liquidation basis of accounting. In addition, the guidance provides principles for the recognition and measurement of assets and liabilities and requirements for financial statements prepared using the liquidation basis of accounting. The amendments require an entity to prepare its financial statements using the liquidation basis of accounting when liquidation is imminent. Liquidation is imminent when the likelihood is remote that the entity will return from liquidation and either (a) a plan for liquidation is approved by the person or persons with the authority to make such a plan effective and the likelihood is remote that the execution of the plan will be blocked by other parties or (b) a plan for liquidation is being imposed by other forces (for example, involuntary bankruptcy). If a plan for liquidation was specified in the entity’s governing documents from the entity’s inception (for example, limited-life entities), the entity should apply the liquidation basis of accounting only if the approved plan for liquidation differs from the plan for liquidation that was specified at the entity’s inception. The amendments are effective for entities that determine liquidation is imminent during annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013, and interim reporting periods therein. Entities should apply the requirements prospectively from the day that liquidation becomes imminent. Early adoption is permitted. Entities that use the liquidation basis of accounting as of the effective date in accordance with other Topics (for example, terminating employee benefit plans) are not required to apply the amendments. Instead, those entities should continue to apply the guidance in those other Topics until they have completed liquidation. This ASU is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.
In June 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-08,Financial Services – Investment Companies (Topic 946): Amendments to the Scope, Measurement, and Disclosure Requirements. The amendments in this ASU affect the scope, measurement, and disclosure requirements for investment companies under U.S. GAAP. The amendments do all of the following: (1.) change the approach to the investment company assessment in Topic 946, clarify the characteristics of an investment company, and provide comprehensive guidance for assessing whether an entity is an investment company; (2.) require an investment company to measure noncontrolling ownership interests in other investment companies at fair value rather than using the equity method of accounting; and (3.) require the following additional disclosures: (a) the fact that the entity is an investment company and is applying the guidance in Topic 946, (b) information about changes, if any, in an entity’s status as an investment company, and (c) information about financial support provided or contractually required to be provided by an investment company to any of its investees. The amendments in this ASU are effective for an entity’s interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years that begin after December 15, 2013. Earlier application is prohibited. This ASU is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-10,Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Inclusion of the Fed Funds Effective Swap Rate (or Overnight Index Swap Rate) as a Benchmark Interest Rate for Hedge Accounting Purposes. The amendments in this ASU permit the Fed Funds Effective Swap Rate (OIS) to be used as a U.S. benchmark interest rate for hedge accounting purposes under Topic 815, in addition to UST and LIBOR. The amendments also remove the restriction on using different benchmark rates for similar hedges. The amendments are effective prospectively for qualifying new or redesignated hedging relationships entered into on or after July 17, 2013. This ASU is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.
In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-11,Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists. This ASU applies to all entities that have unrecognized tax benefits when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists at the reporting date. An unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward, except as follows. To the extent a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position or the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. The assessment of whether a deferred tax asset is available is based on the unrecognized tax benefit and deferred tax asset that exist at the reporting date and should be made presuming disallowance of the tax position at the reporting date. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied prospectively to all unrecognized tax benefits that exist at the effective date. Retrospective application is permitted.

The Company reviews its position quarterly and has determined that at September 30, 2013, the declines outlined in the above table represent temporary declines and the Company does not intend to sell and does not believe it will be required to sell these securities before recovery of its cost basis, which may be at maturity. All investments are interest rate sensitive. These investments earn interest at fixed and adjustable rates. The adjustable-rate instruments are generally linked to an index, such as the three-month LIBOR rate, plus or minus a variable. The value of these instruments fluctuates with interest rates.
The Company had 16 securities in an unrealized loss position at September 30, 2013, and five securities in an unrealized loss position at September 30, 2012. The Company has concluded that the unrealized losses disclosed above are not other than temporary but are the result of interest rate changes or sector credit ratings changes that are not expected to result in the non-collection of principal and interest during the period. The Company’s current intention is not to sell any impaired securities and it is more likely than not it will not be required to sell these securities before the recovery of its amortized cost basis.

Loan Portfolio Composition
The loan and lease receivable portfolio is broken down into the following categories: (1) one- to four-family real estate loans—owner occupied and non-owner occupied (2) construction loans; (3) multi-family real estate loans; (4) commercial real estate loans; (5) home equity and second mortgage loans; (6) secured loans; (7) commercial leases and loans; and (8) commercial lines of credit.
One- to four-family real estate loans include residential first mortgage loans originated by the Company in the greater Pittsburgh metropolitan area. The Company currently originates fully amortizing loans with maturities up to 30 years. These loans have a maximum loan-to-value ratio of 80 percent, unless they fall into the first-time homebuyer program in the Company’s Community Reinvestment Act Assessment Area, and then the maximum loan-to-value ratio can extend up to 95 percent. Due to the Company’s stringent underwriting, historical losses, and location of the majority of the portfolio, the Company’s risk on this segment of the portfolio is considered minimal.
Construction loans include dwelling and land loans where funds are being held by the Company until the construction has ended. Dwelling construction consists of new construction and upgrades to existing dwellings. The normal construction period is for a term of six months. Construction loans on land are originated for developments where the land is being prepared for future home building. On-site inspections are performed as per the draw schedule for all construction loans. The risk associated with the construction loans is considered low, since the Company makes only a small number of these loans at any given time and adheres to the draw schedule to ensure work is being completed in a timely and professional manner.
Multi-family real estate loans include five or more unit dwellings. These loans could pose a higher risk to the Company than the one- to four-family real estate loans and, therefore, are originated with a term of up to 20 years and a loan-to-value ratio of 75 percent. Different risk factors are taken into consideration when originating these loans, such as location, the strength of borrower, rent rolls, and total lending relationship with the borrower(s).

Loan Portfolio Composition (Continued)
Commercial real estate loans consist of loans that are originated in which a commercial property is being used as collateral. These loans also produce a higher risk to the Company and have the same maximum terms and loan-to-value ratios as the multi-family loans. The risks associated with these loans are affected by economic conditions, location, strength of borrower, rent rolls, and potential resale value should foreclosure become necessary.
Home equity and second mortgages include loans as first or second liens to any applicant who maintains an owner-occupied or single-family dwelling. These loans also include home equity lines of credit. The maximum loan amount is $100,000. The first and second liens combined cannot exceed 80 percent of the appraised value of the property. The risk to the Company depends on whether it holds the first and/or second lien. The Company relies heavily on the appraised value to ensure equity is available, as well as the strength of the borrower. These loans are not considered to be more than moderate risk.
Secured loans are made to applicants who maintain deposit accounts at the Company. The Company will originate these loans up to a term of five years or to maturity date whichever comes first. These loans pose no risk to the Company, since the loan amount will never exceed the collateral that is securing the loan.
Commercial leases and loans consist of loans that typically are collateralized by either equipment or vehicles. Forms under the Uniform Commercial Code are filed on all collateral to ensure the Company has the ability to take possession should the loan go into default. The maximum term is up to seven years but typically falls in the three- to five-year range, which gives the Company a quicker repayment of the debt. Based on the collateral alone, the value of which is sometimes difficult to ascertain and can fluctuate as the market and economic climate change, these loans do have a higher risk assigned to them. However, the Company’s historical loss on these loans has been negligible over the last ten years, which is also taken into consideration when the loans are originated and before they are assigned a risk weighting.
Commercial lines of credit consist of lines where residential property is primarily used as collateral. These loans are made to individuals as well as companies and are collateralized by residential and commercial property, equipment, or receivables. The loan amount is determined by the borrower’s financial strength as well as the collateral. The lines are based on the collateral and the ability of the borrower(s) to repay the debt. The lines are closely monitored and limits adjusted accordingly based on updated tax returns and/or other changes to the financial wellbeing of the borrower(s). Subsequently, risk is controlled but considered moderate based on the collateral and nature of the loan.
Credit Quality
Management has an established methodology to determine the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses that assesses the risks and losses inherent in the loan portfolio. For purposes of determining the allowance for loan losses, the Company has segmented certain loans in the portfolio by product type. Loans are segmented into the following pools: one- to four-family real estate (owner occupied), one- to four-family real estate (non-owner occupied), construction, multi-family real estate, commercial real estate, home equity and second mortgages, secured loans, commercial leases and loans, and commercial lines of credit. Historical loss percentages for each risk category are calculated and used as the basis for calculating allowance allocations. These historical loss percentages are calculated over a three-year period for all portfolio segments. Certain qualitative factors are then added to the historical allocation percentage to get the adjusted factor to be applied to nonclassified loans. These qualitative factors are reviewed each quarter and adjusted based upon relevant changes within the portfolio. During the year ended September 30, 2013, the qualitative factors did not change significantly in comparison to the prior year.
To help ensure that risk ratings are accurate and reflect the present and future capacity of borrowers to repay a loan as agreed, the Company has a structured loan rating process with several layers of internal and external oversight. Generally, residential real estate and consumer loans are included in the pass category unless a specific action, such as delinquency greater than 90 days, bankruptcy, repossession, or death occurs to raise awareness of a possible credit event.

Table of Contents
5. LOANS AND RELATED ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES (Continued)
Credit Quality (Continued)
Rating 1 – Pass
Rating 1 has asset risks ranging from excellent low risk to acceptable. This rating considers customer history of earnings, cash flow, liquidity, leverage, capitalization, consistency of debt service coverage, the nature and extent of customer relationship, and other relevant specific business factors, such as the stability of the industry or market area, changes to management, litigation, or unexpected events that could have an impact on risks.
Rating 2 – Special Mention
A special mention asset has a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, the potential weakness may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in the institution’s credit position at some future date. Special mention assets are not adversely classified and do not expose an institution to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification. The Special mention classification is a transitory one and is the first classification that requires an action plan to resolve the weaknesses inherent to the credit. These relationships are reviewed at least quarterly.
Rating 3 – Substandard
Substandard assets are assets that are inadequately protected by the sound worth or paying capacity of the borrower or of the collateral pledged. These assets have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Loss potential, while existing in the aggregate amount of substandard assets, does not have to exist in individual assets classified as substandard. The loans may have a delinquent history or combination of weak collateral, weak guarantor strength, or income statement losses. These assets listed may include assets with histories of repossessions or some that are non-performing bankruptcies. These relationships are reviewed at least quarterly.
Rating 4 – Doubtful
Doubtful assets have many of the same characteristics of substandard assets, with the exception that the Company has determined that loss is not only possible but is probable and the risk is close to certain that loss will occur. When a loan is assigned to this category, the Company will identify the probable loss and it will receive allocation in the loan loss reserve analysis. These relationships are reviewed at least quarterly.
Rating 5 – Loss
Once an asset is identified as a definite loss to the Company, it will receive the classification of loss. There may be some future potential recovery; however, it is more practical to write off the loan at the time of classification. Losses will be taken in the period in which they are determined to be uncollectible.

Consistent with accounting and regulatory guidance, the Bank recognizes a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) when the Bank, for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the borrower that would not normally be considered. Regardless of the form of concession granted, the Bank’s objective in offering a TDR is to increase the probability of repayment of the borrower’s loan.
To be considered a TDR, both of the following criteria must be met:
• | the borrower must be experiencing financial difficulties; and |
• | the Bank, for economic or legal reasons related to the borrower’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the borrower that would not otherwise be considered. |
Factors that indicate a borrower is experiencing financial difficulties include, but are not limited to:
• | the borrower is currently in default on their loan(s); |
• | the borrower has filed for bankruptcy; |
• | the borrower has insufficient cash flows to service their loan(s); or |
• | the borrower is unable to obtain refinancing from other sources at a market rate similar to rates available to a non-troubled debtor. |
Factors that indicate that a concession has been granted include, but are not limited to:
• | the borrower is granted an interest rate reduction to a level below market rates for debt with similar risk; or |
• | the borrower is granted a material maturity date extension, or extension of the amortization plan to provide payment relief. For purposes of this policy, a material maturity date extension will generally include any maturity date extension, or the aggregate of multiple consecutive maturity date extensions, that exceed 120 days. A restructuring that results in an insignificant delay in payment, i.e. 120 days or less, is not necessarily a TDR. Insignificant payment delays occur when the amount of the restructured payments subject to the delay is insignificant relative to the unpaid principal or collateral value, and will result in an insignificant shortfall in the originally scheduled contractual amount due, and/or the delay in timing of the restructured payment period is insignificant relative to the frequency of payments, the original maturity or the original amortization. |
The determination of whether a restructured loan is a TDR requires consideration of all of the facts and circumstances surrounding the modification. No single factor is determinative of whether a restructuring is a TDR. An overall general decline in the economy or some deterioration in a borrower’s financial condition does not automatically mean that the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. Accordingly, determination of whether a modification is a TDR involves a large degree of judgment.
The following table details the TDR at September 30, 2013.
Loans in non-accrual status | Number of Loans | Balance | Concession Granted | |||||||||
Commercial loan secured by business equipment | 1 | $ | 442,494 | Extension of maturity date |
The Bank did not have any TDRs in 2012 nor did it have any TDRs within the year ended September 30, 2013 that then defaulted. The TDR was individually evaluated for impairment and no related allowance was recorded.
Once a loan is classified as a TDR, this classification will remain until documented improvement in the financial position of the borrower supports confidence that all principal and interest will be paid according to terms. Additionally, the customer must have re-established a track record of timely payments according to the restructured contract terms for a minimum of six consecutive months prior to consideration for removing the loan from non-accrual TDR status.

The Company primarily grants loans to customers throughout southwestern Pennsylvania. The Company maintains a diversified loan portfolio and the ability of its debtors to honor their obligations is not substantially dependent on any particular economic business sector. Loans on nonaccrual at September 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012, were approximately $866,000 and $660,000, respectively. The foregone interest on nonaccrual loans was approximately $32,000 and $12,000 for years ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. As of September 30, 2013 and 2012, there were no loans that were 90 days or more delinquent and still accruing interest.
An allowance for loan and lease losses (“ALLL”) is maintained to absorb losses from the loan and lease portfolio. The ALLL is based on management’s continuing evaluation of the risk classifications and credit quality of the loan and lease portfolio, assessment of current economic conditions, diversification and size of the portfolio, adequacy of collateral, past and anticipated loss experience, and the amount of nonperforming loans. Management reviews the loan and lease portfolio on a quarterly basis using a defined, consistently applied process in order to make appropriate and timely adjustments to the ALLL.

5. LOANS AND RELATED ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES (Continued)
A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. 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. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis for commercial and construction loans by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s observable market price, or the fair value of the collateral, if the loan is collateral-dependent. There were two impaired loans as of September 30, 2013 and no impaired loans as of September 30, 2012.

The Company may establish a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that the Company will not be able to realize the deferred tax assets for federal income tax purposes. Periodically, the valuation allowance is reviewed and adjusted based on management’s assessments of realizable deferred tax assets. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future federal taxable income during the periods in which they become deductible. Based on projections for future federal taxable income, management expects to fully realize the benefits of those deductible differences; therefore, as of September 30, 2013, the Company did not record a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets. As of September 30, 2013, the Company did not have a net operating loss carry forward.
Tax basis bad debt reserves established after 1987 are treated as temporary differences on which deferred income taxes have been provided. Deferred taxes are not required to be provided on tax bad debt reserves recorded in 1987 and prior years (base year bad debt reserves). Approximately $1,000,000 of the balance in retained earnings at September 30, 2013 represents base year bad debt deductions for tax purposes only. No provision for federal income tax has been made for such amount. Should amounts previously claimed as a bad debt deduction be used for any purpose other than to absorb bad debts (which is not anticipated), tax liabilities will be incurred at the rate then in effect.

10. EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
Multi-Employer Defined Benefit Plan
The Bank participates in the Pentegra Defined Benefit Plan for Financial Institutions. The plan is a tax-qualified defined-benefit pension plan. The plan operates as a multi-employer plan for accounting purposes and as a multiple-employer plan under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 and the Internal Revenue Code. There are no collective bargaining agreements in place that require contributions to the Pentegra Defined Benefit Plan. The Plan covers substantially all employees.
For the years ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, pension contributions charged to expense amounted to $238,000 and $282,000, respectively.
The Pentegra Defined Benefit Plan is a single plan under Internal Revenue Code Section 413(c) and, as a result, all of the assets stand behind all of the liabilities. Accordingly, under the Pentegra Defined Benefit Plan contributions made by a participating employer may be used to provide benefits to participants of other participating employers.
Total contributions made to the Pentegra Defined Benefit Plan, as reported on Form 5500, equaled $196,473,170 and $299,729,365 for the plan years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Eureka Bank’s contribution to the Pentegra Defined Benefit Plan are not more than 5% of the total contributions to the Pentegra Defined Benefit Plan.
The following contributions were paid by Eureka Bank during the fiscal years ending September 30. There were no changes that would affect affecting comparability for each period.

Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”)
In connection with the conversion in 2011, the Bank created an ESOP for the benefit of employees who meet the eligibility requirements. The ESOP trust acquired 61,090 shares of Eureka Financial stock with the proceeds of a loan from Eureka Financial. The Bank makes cash contributions to the ESOP on an annual basis sufficient to enable the ESOP to make the required loan payments. Cash dividends paid on allocated shares are distributed to participants and cash dividends paid on unallocated shares are used to repay the outstanding debt of the ESOP. The ESOP trust’s outstanding loan bears interest at 3.25 percent and requires an annual payment of principal and interest of $72,173 through February of 2021. The Bank’s ESOP, which is internally leveraged, does not report the loans receivable extended to the ESOP as assets and does not report the ESOP debt due to Eureka Financial.
As the debt is repaid, shares are released from the collateral and allocated to qualified employees based on the proportion of payments made during the year to the remaining amount of payments due on the loan through maturity. The shares pledged as collateral are reported as unallocated common stock held by the ESOP shares in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. As shares are released from collateral, the Company reports compensation expense equal to the current market price of the shares, and the shares become outstanding for earnings-per-share computations. The Company recognized ESOP expense of $92,620 and $88,983 for the years ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
The following table presents the components of the ESOP shares:

Stock Based Compensation
In 2012, Eureka Financial’s stockholders approved the 2012 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2012 Plan”). The purpose of the 2012 Plan is to provide officers, employees and directors with additional incentives to promote growth and performance of Eureka Financial. The 2012 Plan authorizes the granting of options to purchase shares of Eureka Financial stock, which may be nonqualified stock options or incentive stock options, and restricted stock which is subject to vesting conditions and other restrictions. The 2012 Plan reserved an aggregate number of 106,908 shares of which 76,363 may be issued in connection with the exercise of stock options and 30,545 may be issued as restricted stock.
On May 21, 2012, certain directors and officers of Eureka Financial and the Bank were awarded an aggregate of 64,907 options to purchase shares of common stock and 25,961 restricted shares of common stock. The awards vest equally over five years and the stock options have a ten-year contractual life from the date of grant. The Company recognizes expense associated with the awards over the five-year vesting period.
The trading price of Eureka Financial common stock closed at $15.24 per share on May 21, 2012, which is the exercise price of the options granted on that date. The estimated value of the stock options was $86,975, before the impact of income taxes. The per share weighted-average fair value of stock options granted with an exercise price equal to the market value on May 21, 2012, was $1.34 using the following Black-Scholes option pricing model assumptions: expected life of 10 years, expected dividend rate of 2.13%, risk-free interest rate of 1.76% and an expected volatility of 14.34% based on historical results of the stock prices of Eureka Financial. Compensation expense on the options was $17,340 and $7,225 respectively, for the years ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. As of September 30, 2013, there was $62,410 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non vested options which is expected to be recognized ratably over the weighted-average remaining service period of 3.5 years. At September 30, 2013, future compensation expense related to the options is expected to be $17,340 in each of the years 2014 through 2016 and $10,390 in 2017.

11. DEFERRED COMPENSATION ARRANGEMENTS
The Company maintains a non-qualified deferred compensation arrangement with participating members of management under which future defined benefits are funded principally by individual life insurance policies. The cash surrender value of the individual life insurance policies at September 30, 2013 and 2012 was approximately $256,000 and $218,000, respectively, and is included with other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. An actuarially determined charge, which is included in other operating expense, is made each year based on the future benefits to be paid under the plan. The amount accrued during the years ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, was approximately $34,000 and $32,000, respectively. The aggregate liability for the deferred compensation arrangement at September 30, 2013 and 2012 was approximately $328,000 and $294,000, respectively, and is included with “other liabilities” in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
12. COMMITMENTS
In the normal course of business, there are various outstanding commitments and contingent liabilities, such as commitments to extend credit which are not reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. These commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of amounts recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Loan commitments are made to accommodate the financial needs of the Company’s customers. These arrangements have credit risk essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers and are subject to the Company’s normal credit policies and loan underwriting standards. Collateral is obtained based on management’s credit assessment of the customer. Management currently expects no loss from these activities.
The Company’s maximum exposure to credit loss for loan and lease commitments (unfunded loans and leases) at September 30, 2013 and 2012, was approximately $10,726,000 and $9,506,000, respectively, with rates of interest ranging from 2.25 percent to 6.75 percent and 2.25 percent to 6.75 percent, respectively. Fixed rate loan commitments at September 30, 2013 and 2012, were approximately $3,256,000 and $4,293,000, respectively, with fixed rates of interest ranging from 3.75 percent to 6.75 percent and 4.00 percent to 6.75 percent, respectively.

13. FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURE MEASUREMENTS
Management uses its best judgment in determining the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments; however, there are inherent weaknesses in any estimation technique. Therefore, for substantially all financial instruments, the fair value estimates herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could have realized in a sales transaction on the dates indicated. The fair value amounts have been measured as of their respective year-ends and have not been reevaluated or updated for purposes of these financial statements subsequent to those respective dates. As such, the fair values of these financial instruments subsequent to the respective reporting dates may be different than the amounts reported at each year-end.
The Company follows a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation methods used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level I measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level III measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
Level I: | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. | |
Level II: | Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. | |
Level III: | Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported with little or no market activity). |
An asset’s or liability’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
For financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis, the fair value measurements by level within the fair value hierarchy used at September 30, 2013 and 2012, are as follows:

13. FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURE MEASUREMENTS (Continued)
The following table presents the financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2013 by level within the fair value hierarchy. Impaired loans that are collateral dependent are written down to fair value through the establishment of specific reserves. Techniques used to value the collateral that secure the impaired loan include: quoted market prices for identical assets classified as Level I inputs, employed by certified appraisers, for similar assets classified as Level II inputs. In cases where valuation techniques include inputs that are unobservable and are based on estimates and assumptions developed by management based on the best information available under each circumstance, the asset valuation is classified as Level III inputs.

The following information should not be interpreted as an estimate of the fair value of the entire Company since a fair value calculation is only provided for a limited portion of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Due to a wide range of valuation techniques and the degree of subjectivity used in making the estimates, comparisons between the Company’s disclosures and those of other companies may not be meaningful. The following methods and assumptions that are presented below the following table were used to estimate fair values of the Company’s financial instruments at September 30, 2013 and 2012:

Cash and Cash Equivalents
The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.
Investment Securities and Mortgage-Backed Securities
The fair value of securities available for sale (carried at fair value) and held to maturity (carried at amortized cost) is determined by obtaining matrix pricing (Level II), which is a mathematical technique used widely in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted market prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted prices.
FHLB Stock
The carrying value of the FHLB stock is a reasonable estimate of fair value due to restrictions on the securities.
Loans Receivable
The fair values for one- to four-family residential loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis using fields from similar products in the secondary markets. The carrying amount of construction loans approximated its fair value given their short-term nature. The fair values of consumer and commercial loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, using interest rates reported in various government releases and the Company’s own product pricing schedule for loans with terms similar to the Company’s. The fair values of multi-family and nonresidential mortgages are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, using interest rates based on a national survey of similar loans.
Accrued Interest Receivable
The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.
Deposits
The fair values disclosed for demand deposits are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the repricing date (i.e., their carrying amounts). Fair values of certificates of deposits are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies a comparable FHLB advance rate to the aggregated weighted-average maturity on time deposits.
Advances from Borrowers for Taxes and Insurance
The fair value of advances from borrowers for taxes and insurance is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date.
Accrued Interest Payable
The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.
14. CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT
The Company primarily grants loans to customers in southwestern Pennsylvania and maintains a diversified loan portfolio. The ability of its debtors to honor their contracts is not substantially dependent on any particular economic business sector. All of the Company’s investments in municipal securities are obligations of state or political subdivisions located within Pennsylvania. As a whole, the Company’s loan and investment portfolios could be affected by the general economic conditions of Pennsylvania. In addition, as of September 30, 2013 and 2012, a significant portion of the Company’s “due from banks” was maintained with large financial institutions located in southwestern Pennsylvania. The Company maintains cash balances with financial institutions that exceed the $250,000 amount that is insured by the FDIC as of September 30, 2013 and 2012. Amounts in excess of insured limits were approximately $5,994,000 and $7,300,000 at September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Of those amounts, approximately $1,614,000 and $491,000 respectively, were on deposit at the FHLB at September 30, 2013 and 2012.

15. CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS
The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Bank’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank’s assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk-weightings and other factors.
As of September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Bank was not required to maintain a clearing balance requirement with the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland.
The Company may not declare or pay a cash dividend if the effect thereof would cause its net worth to be reduced below either the amounts required for the liquidation account or the regulatory capital requirements imposed by federal and state regulations.
The most recent notification from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency categorized the Bank as “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as “well capitalized” the Bank must maintain minimum total risk based, core and tangible ratios as set forth in the accompanying table. There are no conditions or events since the notification that management believed has changed the institution’s category. The following shows the Bank’s compliance with regulatory capital standards at September 30, 2013 and 2012:
