Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction |
This is the PL Capital Group’s fifth amended Schedule 13D filing. The PL Capital Group owns 9.4% of the Company’s Common Stock, based upon the Company’s aggregate outstanding shares as of August 6, 2014 (which includes the impact of the conversion and reorganization of Malvern Federal Bancorp, Inc. into Malvern on October 11, 2012).
PL Capital Group originally acquired the Common Stock because it believed the Common Stock was undervalued and the Company had the opportunity to increase long term shareholder value through stock repurchases, nonperforming asset reductions, prudent growth and increased earnings.
PL Capital’s intent is to monitor the performance of the Company and the decisions made by the Company’s management and board, and as it deems necessary, assert PL Capital Group’s stockholder rights.
On November 6, 2014, PL Capital principal Richard Lashley sent a letter to Mr. George Steinmetz, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Malvern, expressing PL Capital’s current view of Malvern and the recent hiring of Anthony Weagley as President & CEO of Malvern. The letter included certain recommendations made by PL Capital and Mr. Lashley to Malvern. A copy of the letter is attached as Exhibit 5 to this amended Schedule 13D.
On August 8, 2014, the PL Capital Group sent a letter to the Board of Directors of the Company. A copy of the letter was attached as Exhibit 4 to the amended Schedule 13D filed on August 11, 2014.
On May 14, 2014, the PL Capital Group sent a letter to the Board of Directors of the Company. A copy of the letter was attached as Exhibit 3 to the amended Schedule 13D filed on May 16, 2014.
CUSIP No. 561409103 | Page 14 of 19 Pages |
On October 18, 2012 the PL Capital sent a letter dated October 17, 2012 to the Chairman and CEO of the Company. The letter relates to certain corporate governance changes made by the Company and opposed by PL Capital. A copy of the letter was attached as Exhibit 2 to the initial Schedule 13D filed on October 22, 2012.
Unless otherwise noted in this amended Schedule 13D, no member of the PL Capital Group has any plans or proposals, which relate to, or would result in, any of the matters referred to in paragraphs (b) through (j), inclusive of Item (4) of Schedule 13D. Such individuals may, at any time and from time to time, review or reconsider their positions and formulate plans or proposals with respect thereto. Members of the PL Capital Group may make further purchases of shares of Common Stock, although the PL Capital Group has no present intention of increasing PL Capital Group’s aggregate holdings above 9.999% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock. Members of the PL Capital Group may dispose of any or all the shares of Common Stock held by them.
Item 5. | Interest in Securities of the Company |
The percentages used in this amended Schedule 13D are calculated based upon the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, 6,558,473, reported as the number of outstanding shares of the Company as of August 6, 2014, in Malvern Federal Bancorp, Inc.’s Current Report on Form 10-Q filed on August 8, 2014. On October 11, 2012 Malvern Federal Bancorp, Inc. completed its plan of conversion and reorganization and Malvern became its successor.
