PART I
| Item 1. | Business. |
General
Camco Financial Corporation (“Camco” or the “Corporation”) is a bank holding company that was organized under Delaware law in 1970. Camco is engaged in the financial services business in Ohio, Kentucky and West Virginia, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Advantage Bank and Camco Title Agency, Inc. In June 2001, Camco completed a reorganization in which it combined its banking activities under one Ohio savings bank charter known as Advantage Bank (“Advantage” or the “Bank”). Prior to the reorganization, Camco operated five separate banking subsidiaries serving distinct geographic areas. The branch office groups in each of the regions previously served by the subsidiary banks, except for the Bank’s Ashland, Kentucky, division, which was sold in 2004, now operate as regions of Advantage. In 2003, Camco dissolved its second tier subsidiary, Camco Mortgage Corporation, and converted its offices into branch offices of the Bank. In August 2004, Camco completed a business combination with London Financial Corporation of London, Ohio, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, The Citizens Bank of London. The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and, therefore, the financial statements for prior periods have not been restated. At the time of the merger, Advantage Bank merged into The Citizens Bank of London and changed the name of the resulting institution to Advantage Bank. As a result, Camco became a Federal Reserve Board (“FRB”) regulated bank holding company and Advantage became an Ohio-chartered commercial bank.
Advantage is primarily regulated by the State of Ohio Department of Commerce, Division of Financial Institutions (the “Division”), and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”). Advantage is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank (the “FHLB”) of Cincinnati, and its deposit accounts are insured up to applicable limits by the Deposit Insurance Fund (the “DIF”) administered by the FDIC. Camco is regulated by the Federal Reserve Board.
Advantage’s lending activities include the origination of commercial real estate and business loans, consumer loans, and residential conventional fixed-rate and variable-rate mortgage loans for the acquisition, construction or refinancing of single-family homes located in Camco’s primary market areas. Camco also originates construction and permanent mortgage loans on condominiums, two- to four-family, multi-family (over four units) and nonresidential properties. Camco continues to diversify the balance sheet through increasing commercial, commercial real estate, and consumer loans as well as retail and business checking and money market deposit accounts.
The financial statements for Camco and its subsidiaries are prepared on a consolidated basis. The principal source of revenue for Camco on an unconsolidated basis has historically been dividends from the Bank. Payment of dividends to Camco by the Bank is subject to various regulatory restrictions and tax considerations.
References in this report to various aspects of the business, operations and financial condition of Camco may be limited to Advantage, as the context requires.
Camco’s Internet site,http://www.camcofinancial.com, provides Camco’s annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 free of charge as soon as reasonably practicable after Camco has filed the report with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Lending Activities
General. Camco’s lending activities include the origination of commercial real estate and business loans, consumer loans, and conventional fixed-rate and adjustable-rate mortgage loans for the construction, acquisition or refinancing of single-family residential homes located in Advantage’s primary market areas. Construction and permanent mortgage loans on condominiums, multifamily (over four units) and nonresidential properties are also offered by Camco.

Generally, loans originated by Advantage are on a fully-amortizing basis. Advantage has no rollover provisions in its loan documents and anticipates that loans will be paid in full by the maturity date.
Residential Loans.A large portion of the lending activity of Advantage is the origination of fixed-rate and adjustable-rate conventional loans for the acquisition, refinancing, home equity lines of credit or construction of single-family residences. Home equity loans are made at fixed and variable rates of interest for terms of up to 15 years. Excluding home equity lines of credit, approximately 41.1% of total loans as of December 31, 2010, consisted of loans secured by mortgages on one- to four-family residential properties.

Table of Contents
Advantage’s home equity line of credit loan portfolio totaled $94.0 million, or 13.7%, of the total loan portfolio at December 31, 2010. During 2010, management continued to tighten lending standards on home equity lines of credit in response to significant economic weakness and declining home values. These actions included increasing minimum credit scores and reducing the combined LTV on new loans. At December 31, 2010, residential and home equity line of credits constituted $375.6 million, or 54.8% of Advantage’s total loans.
Federal regulations and Ohio law limit the amount which Advantage may lend in relationship to the appraised value of the underlying real estate at the time of loan origination (the “Loan-to-Value Ratio” or “LTV”). In accordance with such regulations and law, Advantage generally makes loans for its own portfolio on single-family residences up to 95% of the value of the real estate and improvements. Advantage generally requires the borrower on each loan with an LTV in excess of 80% to obtain private mortgage insurance, loan default insurance or a guarantee by a federal agency. Advantage permits, on an exception basis, borrowers to exceed a LTV of 80% without private mortgage insurance, loan default insurance or a guarantee by a federal agency.
The interest rate adjustment periods on adjustable-rate mortgage loans (“ARMs”) offered by Advantage are generally one, three, five and seven years. The interest rates initially charged on ARMs and the new rates at each adjustment date are determined by adding a stated margin to a designated interest rate index. Advantage has generally used one-year and three-year United States Treasury note yields, adjusted to a constant maturity, as the index for one-year and three-year adjustable-rate loans, respectively. Advantage has used the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and FHLB advance rates as additional indices on certain loan programs to diversify its concentrations of indices that may prove beneficial during re-pricing of loans throughout changing economic cycles. The maximum adjustment on residential loans at each adjustment date for ARMs is usually 2%, with a maximum adjustment of 6% over the term of the loan.
From time to time, Advantage originates ARMs which have an initial interest rate that is lower than the sum of the specified index plus the margin. Such loans are subject to increased risk of delinquency or default due to increasing monthly payments as the interest rates on such loans increase to the fully indexed level. Advantage attempts to reduce the risk by underwriting ARMs at rates ranging from note rate on longer term ARMs to the maximum possible rate on shorter term ARMs. None of Advantage’s ARMs have negative amortization or “payment option” features.
Residential mortgage loans offered by Advantage are usually for terms of up to 30 years, which could have an adverse effect upon earnings if the loans do not reprice as quickly as the cost of funds. To minimize such effect, Advantage generally sells fixed-rate loans to Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae. Furthermore, experience reveals that, as a result of prepayments in connection with refinancing and sales of the underlying properties, residential loans generally remain outstanding for periods which are substantially shorter than the maturity of such loans.
At December 31, 2010, fixed-rate loans comprised 27.1% of the 1-4 family residential loan portfolios. Approximately 72.9% of the 1-4 family residential loan portfolios had adjustable rates tied to U.S. Treasury note yields or LIBOR.
Construction and Development Loans.Advantage offers residential construction loans both to owner-occupants and to builders for homes being built under contract with owner-occupants. Advantage also makes loans to persons constructing projects for investment purposes. Loans for developed building lots are generally made on an adjustable-rate basis for terms of up to two years with an LTV of 65% or less.
Advantage offers construction loans to owner-occupants at adjustable-rate term loans on which the borrower pays only interest on the disbursed portion during the construction period, which is usually 9 months. At December 31, 2010, approximately $26.5 million, of Advantage’s total loans consisted of construction loans of which $20.9 was undisbursed.
Construction loans for investment properties involve greater underwriting and default risks than loans secured by mortgages on existing properties or construction loans for single-family residences. Loan funds are advanced upon the security of the project under construction, which is more difficult to value before the completion of construction. Moreover, because of the uncertainties inherent in estimating construction costs, it is relatively difficult to evaluate precisely the total loan funds required to complete a project and the related LTV ratios. In the event a default on a construction loan occurs and foreclosure follows, Advantage could be adversely affected because it would have to take control of the project and either arrange for completion of construction or dispose of the unfinished project. Advantage mitigates these risks by working with experienced developers which have substantial personal liquidity. At December 31, 2010, Advantage had $25.5 million of multi-family and non-residential construction loans, of which $220.6 million was undisbursed.
Nonresidential Real Estate Loans. Advantage originates loans secured by mortgages on nonresidential real estate, including retail, office and other types of business facilities. Nonresidential real estate loans are made on an adjustable-rate or fixed-rate basis for terms of up to 10 years. Nonresidential real estate loans originated by Advantage generally have an LTV of 75% or less. The largest nonresidential real estate loan outstanding at December 31, 2010, was $8.9 million loan secured by a skilled nursing facility located in Steubenville, Ohio. Nonresidential real estate loans comprised $164.0 million, or 20.5% of total loans at December 31, 2010.

Table of Contents
Nonresidential real estate lending is generally considered to involve a higher degree of risk than residential lending due to the relatively larger loan amounts and the effects of general economic conditions on the successful operation of income-producing properties. Advantage has endeavored to reduce this risk by carefully evaluating the credit history and past performance of the borrower, the location of the real estate, the quality of the management operating the property, the rent roll, the property’s debt service coverage, the quality and characteristics of the income stream generated by the property and appraisals supporting the property’s valuation.
Consumer and Other Loans. Advantage makes various types of consumer loans, including loans made to depositors on the security of their savings deposits, automobile loans and unsecured personal loans. Most other consumer loans are generally made at fixed rates of interest for terms of up to 10 years. The risk of default on consumer loans during an economic recession is greater than for residential mortgage loans.
Loan Solicitation and Processing. Loan originations are developed from a number of sources, including: solicitations by Advantage’s lending staff; referrals from real estate brokers, loan brokers and builders; participations with other banks; continuing business with depositors, other business borrowers and real estate developers; and walk-in customers. Advantage’s management stresses the importance of individualized attention to the financial needs of its customers.
The loan origination process for each of Advantage’s regions is centralized in the processing and underwriting of loans. Mortgage loan applications from potential borrowers are taken by loan officers originating loans, and then forwarded to the loan department for processing. The Bank typically obtains a credit report, verification of employment and other documentation concerning the borrower and orders an appraisal of the fair market value of the collateral which will secure the loan. The collateral is thereafter physically inspected and appraised by a staff appraiser or by a designated fee appraiser approved by the Board of Directors of Advantage. Upon the completion of the appraisal and the receipt of all necessary information regarding the borrower, the loan is reviewed by an underwriter or officer with appropriate loan approval authority. If the loan is approved, an attorney’s opinion of title or title insurance is obtained on the real estate which will secure the loan. Borrowers are required to carry satisfactory fire and casualty insurance and, if applicable, flood and private mortgage insurance, and to name Advantage as an insured mortgagee.
The procedure for approval of construction loans is the same as for residential mortgage loans, except that the appraiser evaluates the building plans, construction specifications and construction cost estimates. Advantage also evaluates the feasibility of the proposed construction project, often utilizing independent architects as consultants.
Consumer loans are underwritten on the basis of the borrower’s credit history and an analysis of the borrower’s income and expenses, ability to repay the loan and the value of the collateral. Centralized processing and underwriting are utilized to add adequate controls over the credit review process.
Loan Originations, Purchases and Sales. Generally, residential fixed-rate loans made by Advantage are originated with documentation which will permit a possible sale of such loans to secondary mortgage market investors. When a mortgage loan is sold to the investor, Advantage services the loan by collecting monthly payments of principal and interest and forwarding such payments to the investor, net of a servicing fee. Fixed-rate loans not sold and virtually all of the ARMs originated by Advantage are held in Advantage’s loan portfolio. During the year ended December 31, 2010, Advantage sold approximately $88.7 million in loans. Loans serviced by Advantage for others totaled $485.6 million at December 31, 2010.
The Corporation’s lending efforts have historically focused on loans secured by existing 1-4 family residential properties. Generally, such loans have been underwritten on the basis of no more than an 80% loan-to-value ratio, which has historically provided the Corporation with adequate collateral coverage in the event of default. Nevertheless, Advantage, as with any lending institution, is subject to the risk that residential real estate values could continue to deteriorate in its primary lending areas within Ohio, West Virginia, and northern Kentucky, thereby further impairing collateral values.
In 2009, our Commercial Banking Division was focused on reviewing the current portfolio and assisting our Credit Administration Unit to implement aggressive strategies to decrease our non-performing loans. In 2010, our Commercial Banking Division was a key revenue driver with higher loan and origination fees and a significant amount of new commercial deposit relationships. The increased commercial loan origination is reflective in the table below.
We believe that some of the key attributes of the new commercial business include the opportunity to provide financial services to high net worth individuals, lower leveraged real estate projects and high credit quality operating companies. The Commercial Banking Division continues to be focused on relationship banking, credit quality and earning an acceptable interest rate margin.
Of the total loans originated by Advantage during the year ended December 31, 2010, 50.5% were ARM and 49.5% were fixed-rate loans. Adjustable-rate loans comprised 72.9% of Advantage’s total loans outstanding at December 31, 2010.

Table of Contents
From time to time, Advantage sells participation interests in mortgage loans, business loans and commercial loans originated by it and purchases whole loans or participation interests in loans originated by other lenders. Advantage held whole loans and participations in loans originated by other lenders of approximately $14.4 million at December 31, 2010. Loans which Advantage purchases or participates must meet or exceed the normal underwriting standards utilized by the Bank.

Lending Limit. Federal regulations and Ohio law generally impose a lending limit on the aggregate amount that a depository institution can lend to one borrower to an amount equal to 15% of the institution’s total capital for risk-based capital purposes plus any loan reserves not already included in total capital (the “Lending Limit Capital”). A depository institution may loan to one borrower an additional amount not to exceed 10% of the institution’s Lending Limit Capital, if the additional amount is fully secured by certain forms of “readily marketable collateral.” Real estate is not considered “readily marketable collateral.” In applying this limit, the regulations require that loans to certain related or affiliated borrowers be aggregated.
The largest amount which Advantage could have loaned to one borrower at December 31, 2010, was approximately $8.2 million. The largest amount Advantage had outstanding to one borrower and related persons or entities at December 31, 2010, was $9.0 million, which consisted of loans secured by 1-4 units within seven subdivisions. The amount outstanding to one borrower at December 31, 2010 exceeded the limit because the loan was closed at a time when Advantage’s loans to one borrower limit was higher and, therefore, Advantage was in compliance at the time the loan was closed.
Loan Concentrations.Advantage has historically originated loans secured by real estate. At December 31, 2010, approximately 53.5% of total loans were secured by 1-4 family residential real estate. Home equity lines of credit comprised 13.7% of total loans at December 31, 2010. We continue to have a large amount of loans secured by real estate but there were no significant concentrations of loans to specific industries at December 31, 2010.
Regulatory guidance suggests that financial institutions not exceed 3x risk based capital in a concentration of commercial real estate. At December 31, 2010, Camco’s ratio for this concentration was 3.98x risk based capital, approximately $53.3 million over the guidance limitation. Advantage has a number of significant pay downs approaching in the first half of 2011 which will decrease the risk based capital. Additionally, Camco plans to raise capital and we are adopting a concentration management plan to monitor and control our exposure.

Loan Origination and Other Fees.In addition to interest earned on loans, Advantage may receive loan origination fees or “points” relating to the loan amount, depending on the type of loan, plus reimbursement of certain other expenses. Loan origination fees and other fees are a more volatile source of income, varying with the volume of lending and economic conditions. All nonrefundable loan origination fees and certain direct loan origination costs are deferred and recognized as an adjustment to yield over the life of the related loan.
Delinquent Loans, Nonperforming Assets and Classified Assets. Generally, after a loan payment is 15 days delinquent, a late charge of 5% of the amount of the payment is assessed and a collection officer contacts the borrower to request payment. In certain limited instances, Advantage may modify the loan or grant a limited moratorium on loan payments to enable the borrower to reorganize his or her financial affairs. Advantage generally initiates foreclosure proceedings, in accordance with applicable laws, when it appears that a modification or moratorium would not be or has not been effective.
Real estate which has been acquired by Advantage as a result of foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure is classified as “real estate owned” until it is sold. “Real estate owned” is recorded at the lower of the book value of the loan or the fair value of the property less estimated selling expenses at the date of acquisition. Periodically, “real estate owned” is reviewed to ensure that fair value is not less than carrying value, and any write-down resulting from the review is charged to earnings as a provision for losses on real estate acquired through foreclosure. All costs incurred from the date of acquisition are expensed in the period paid.

Nonaccrual status denotes loans greater than three payments past due, loans for which, in the opinion of management, the collection of additional interest is unlikely, or loans that meet nonaccrual criteria as established by regulatory authorities. Payments received on a nonaccrual loan are either applied to the outstanding principal balance or recorded as interest income, depending on management’s assessment of the collectability of the loan.

The amount of interest income that would have been recorded had nonaccrual loans performed in accordance with contractual terms totaled approximately $2.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. Interest collected on such loans and included in net earnings was $846,000.
Federal regulations require the Bank to classify its assets on a regular basis. Problem assets are to be classified as either (i) “substandard,” (ii) “doubtful” or (iii) “loss.” Substandard assets have one or more defined weaknesses and are characterized by the distinct possibility that the insured institution will sustain some loss of principal and or interest if the deficiencies are not corrected. Doubtful assets have the same weaknesses as substandard assets with the additional characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable on the basis of existing facts, conditions and value. Assets classified as “loss” are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their treatment as assets without the establishment of a specific reserve is unwarranted. Loans classified and generally charged off in the month are identified as a loss. Regulations provide for the reclassification of assets by examiners. At December 31, 2010, the aggregate amounts of Advantage’s classified assets were as follows:
| December 31, 2010 | ||||
| (In thousands) | ||||
| Classified loans: | ||||
| Substandard | $ | 53,579 | ||
| Doubtful | — | |||
| Loss | — | |||
| Total classified loans | $ | 53,579 | ||

Table of Contents
The interpretive guidance of the regulations also includes a “special mention” category, consisting of assets which do not currently expose an insured institution to a sufficient degree of risk to warrant classification, but which possess credit deficiencies or potential weaknesses deserving management’s close attention. Advantage had assets in the amount of $11.9 million designated as “special mention” at December 31, 2010 compared to $22.6 million at December 31, 2009.
Allowance for Loan Losses
Lending money is a substantial part of Camco’s business. However, every loan Camco makes carries a risk of non-payment. This risk is affected by, among other things: cash flow of the borrower and/or the project being financed; in the case of a collateralized loan, the changes and uncertainties as to the future value of the collateral; the credit history of a particular borrower; changes in economic and industry conditions; and the duration of the loan.
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make significant estimates that affect the financial statements. One of Camco’s most critical estimates is the level of the allowance for loan losses. Due to the inherent nature of these estimates, Camco cannot provide absolute assurance that it will not be required to charge earnings for significant unexpected loan losses.
Camco maintains an allowance for loan losses that it believes is a reasonable estimate of known and inherent losses within the loan portfolio. Camco makes various assumptions and judgments about the collectability of Camco’s loan portfolio, including the creditworthiness of borrowers and the value of the real estate and other assets serving as collateral for the repayment of loans. Through a periodic review and consideration of the loan portfolio, management determines the amount of the allowance for loan losses by considering general market conditions, credit quality of the loan portfolio, the collateral supporting the loans and performance of customers relative to their financial obligations with us. The amount of future losses is susceptible to changes in economic, operating and other conditions, including changes in interest rates, which may be beyond Camco’s control, and these losses may exceed current estimates. Camco cannot fully predict the amount or timing of losses or whether the loan loss allowance will be adequate in the future.
In originating loans, the Bank recognizes that credit losses will be experienced and that the risk of loss will vary with, among other things, the type of loan being made, the creditworthiness of the borrower over the term of the loan, general economic conditions and, in the case of a secured loan, the quality of the security for the loan. It is management’s policy to maintain an adequate allowance for loan losses based on, among other things, the Bank’s historical loan loss experience, evaluation of economic conditions and regular reviews of delinquencies and loan portfolio quality. The Bank increases its allowance for loan losses by charging provisions for loan losses against the Bank’s income.
General allowances are made pursuant to management’s assessment of risk in the Bank’s loan portfolio as a whole. Specific allowances are provided for individual loans when ultimate collection is considered questionable by management after reviewing the current status of loans which are contractually past due and considering the net realizable value of the security for the loan. Management continues to actively monitor the Bank’s asset quality and to charge off loans against the allowance for loan losses when appropriate or to provide specific loss reserves when necessary. Although management believes it uses the best information available to make determinations with respect to the allowance for loan losses, future adjustments may be necessary if economic conditions differ substantially from the economic conditions in the assumptions used in making the initial determinations.

Table of Contents
Management’s approach includes establishing a specific valuation allowance by evaluating individual non-performing loans for probable losses based on a systematic approach involving estimating the realizable value of the underlying collateral. Additionally, management established a general valuation allowance for pools of performing loans segregated by collateral type. For the general valuation allowance, management is applying a prudent loss factor based on the Bank’s historical loss experience, while considering trends based on changes to non-performing loans and foreclosure activity, and the subjective evaluation of the economic environment. The loan portfolio is segregated into categories based on collateral type and a loss factor is applied to each category. The initial basis for each loss factor is the Corporation’s loss experience for each category. Historical loss percentages are calculated and adjusted by taking charge-offs (net of recoveries) in each risk category during the past 12 consecutive quarters and dividing the total by the balance of each category.
The following table sets forth an analysis of Advantage’s allowance for loan losses historical loss experience:

Deposits and Borrowings
General.Deposits are a primary source of Advantage’s funds for use in lending and other investment activities. In addition to deposits, Advantage derives funds from interest payments and principal repayments on loans, advances from the FHLB of Cincinnati and income on earning assets. Loan payments are a relatively stable source of funds, while deposit inflows and outflows fluctuate more in response to general interest rate and money market conditions. As part of Advantage’s asset and liability management strategy, FHLB advances and other borrowings are used to fund loan originations and for general business purposes. FHLB advances are also used on a short-term basis to compensate for reductions in the availability of funds from other sources.
Deposits. Deposits are attracted principally from within Advantage’s primary market area through the offering of a broad selection of deposit instruments, including interest-bearing and non-interest bearing checking accounts, money market deposit accounts, regular savings accounts, health savings accounts, term certificate accounts and retirement savings plans. In 2006, Advantage began offering brokered certificates of deposit as an alternative to advances from the FHLB; these offerings were discontinued in the latter half of 2009. In 2010, Advantage began offerings with Qwick Rate as part of the Bank’s contingency funding plan. Qwick Rate is a non-brokered deposit listing service that provides the Bank with access to institutional certificate of deposits. The Bank pays an annual subscription fee to access the listing service. Interest rates paid, maturity terms, service fees and withdrawal penalties for the various types of accounts are established periodically by management of Advantage based on its liquidity requirements, growth goals and interest rates paid by competitors.
Interest rates paid by Advantage on deposits became subject to limitations as a result of a consent order Advantage entered into with the FDIC and Ohio Division of Financial Institutions in July 2009 (“Consent Order”).See“Regulation-Regulatory Agreements” below. Deposits solicited by the Bank cannot significantly exceed the prevailing rates in its market areas. The FDIC has implemented by regulation the statutory language “significantly exceed” as meaning more than 75 basis points. Although the rule became effective January 1, 2010, Advantage has utilized these standards since mid year 2009.

Camco expects overall deposit rates to remain suppressed in 2011 in response to the FRB’s current monetary policy of keeping interest rates low. In addition to the external interest rate environment, the overall direction of rate movements in Advantage’s deposit base will largely depend on the level of deposit growth it needs to maintain adequate liquidity and competitive pricing considerations, which may be impacted by the repeal of federal prohibitions on the ability of financial institutions to pay interest on demand deposit accounts under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (“Dodd-Frank Act”).

Borrowings.The twelve regional FHLBs function as central reserve banks, providing credit for their member institutions. As a member in good standing of the FHLB of Cincinnati, Advantage is authorized to apply for advances from the FHLB of Cincinnati, provided certain standards of creditworthiness have been met. Advances are made pursuant to 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 regulatory capital or on the FHLB’s assessment of the institution’s creditworthiness. Under current regulations, a member institution must meet certain qualifications to be eligible for FHLB advances. FHLB advances are secured by a blanket pledge on Advantage’s 1-4 family and multifamily residential loans, home equity lines of credit, junior mortgages, commercial and FHLB stock. Advantage currently provides its notes as collateral without recourse or warranty.
Borrowings also include repurchase agreements and subordinated debentures. Repurchase agreements are collateralized by a portion of Advantage’s investment portfolio.
Competition
Advantage competes for deposits with other commercial banks, savings associations, savings banks, insurance companies and credit unions and with the issuers of commercial paper and other securities, such as shares in money market mutual funds. The primary factors in competing for deposits are interest rates and convenience of office location. In making loans, Advantage competes with other commercial banks, savings banks, savings associations, consumer finance companies, credit unions and other lenders. Advantage competes for loan originations primarily through the interest rates and loan fees it charges and through the efficiency and quality of the services it provides to borrowers. Competition is affected by, among other things, the general availability of lendable funds, general and local economic conditions, current interest rate levels and other factors which are not readily predictable.
Holding Company Capital Resources
Camco is required to act as a source of strength to the Bank. Camco is obligated to pay its expenses, as well as interest payments on the outstanding trust preferred securities. Camco has limited capital resources to meet these obligations. As a result of the written agreement entered into between Camco and the FRB discussed below, Camco was required to defer the payment of dividends on the trust preferred securities beginning in the second quarter of 2009. Advantage has not been permitted to pay dividends to Camco since 2008. Advantage does not anticipate receiving approval to pay dividends to Camco in the foreseeable future.
As of December 31, 2010, on a stand alone basis, Camco had an available cash balance of approximately $3.9 million in order to meet its ongoing obligations. $3.8 million of the total cash is due to an Internal Revenue Service refund for 2009 and amended returns related to 2007 and 2006. The tax refund was moved to the Bank on February 28, 2011. Camco will need additional funds to continue meeting its financial obligations sometime during the second half of 2011. If additional funds are needed, Camco will seek approval from its regulators to obtain temporary financial support from the Bank. No agreement as to any such support has yet been requested.
Camco has engaged an investment banking firm and has submitted to the regulators a capital plan, which may include implementation of balance sheet reductions, the sale of branches, issuing common stock, preferred stock, debt or some combination of those issuances, or other financing alternatives that will be treated as capital. Although, the Corporation anticipates raising additional capital, the Board of Directors has not yet determined the type, timing, amount, or terms of possible securities to be issued in the offering, and there are no assurances that an offering will be completed or that the Corporation will succeed in this endeavor. In addition, a transaction, which would likely involve equity financing would result in substantial dilution to current stockholders and could adversely affect the price of the Corporation’s common stock.

Service Corporation Activities
Advantage has no operating subsidiaries. First S&L Corporation, a subsidiary of Advantage, is inactive and was capitalized on a nominal basis at December 31, 2010.
Employees
As of December 31, 2010, Camco had 228 full-time employees and 26 part-time employees. Camco believes that relations with its employees are stable. None of the employees of Camco are represented by a collective bargaining unit.
REGULATION
General
As a bank holding company registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “BHC Act”), Camco is subject to regulation, examination and oversight by the FRB. Advantage is a non-member of the FRB and is primarily subject to regulation by the Division and the FDIC. Camco and Advantage must file periodic reports with these governmental agencies, as applicable, concerning their activities and financial condition. Examinations are conducted annually by the applicable regulators to determine whether Camco and Advantage are in compliance with various regulatory requirements and are operating in a safe and sound manner.
Ohio Regulation
Regulation by the Division affects the internal organization of Advantage, as well as its depository, lending and other investment activities. Periodic examinations by the Division are usually conducted on a joint basis with the FDIC. Ohio law requires that Advantage maintain federal deposit insurance as a condition of doing business. The ability of Ohio chartered banks to engage in certain state-authorized investments is subject to oversight and approval by the FDIC. See “Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation — State Chartered Bank Activities.”
Any mergers involving or acquisitions of control of, Ohio banks must be approved by the Division. The Division may initiate certain supervisory measures or formal enforcement actions against Ohio chartered banks. Ultimately, if the grounds provided by law exist, the Division may place an Ohio chartered bank in conservatorship or receivership.
In addition to being governed by the laws of Ohio specifically governing banks, Advantage is also governed by Ohio corporate law, to the extent such law does not conflict with the laws specifically governing banks.
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
Supervision and Examination.The FDIC is responsible for the regulation and supervision of all commercial banks that are not members of the FRB (“Non-member Banks”). The FDIC is an independent federal agency that insures the deposits, up to prescribed statutory limits, of federally insured banks and thrifts and safeguards the safety and soundness of the bank and thrift industries.
Non-member Banks are subject to regulatory oversight under various state and federal consumer protection and fair lending laws. These laws govern, among other things, truth-in-lending and truth-in-savings disclosure, equal credit opportunity, fair credit reporting and community reinvestment. Failure to abide by federal laws and regulations governing community reinvestment could limit the ability of an institution to open a new branch or engage in a merger transaction.
State Chartered Bank Activities.The ability of Advantage to engage in any state-authorized activities or make any state-authorized investments, as principal, is limited if such activity is conducted or investment is made in a manner different than that permitted for, or subject to different terms and conditions than those imposed on, national banks. Engaging as a principal in any such activity or investment not permissible for a national bank is subject to approval by the FDIC. Such approval will not be granted unless certain capital requirements are met and there is not a significant risk to the FDIC insurance fund. Most equity and real estate investments (excluding office space and other real estate owned) authorized by state law are not permitted for national banks. Certain exceptions are granted for activities deemed by the FRB to be closely related to banking and for FDIC-approved subsidiary activities.

Liquidity.Advantage is not required to maintain a specific level of liquidity; however, the FDIC expects it to maintain adequate liquidity to protect safety and soundness.
Regulatory Capital Requirements.Camco and Advantage are required by applicable law and regulations to meet certain minimum capital requirements. The capital standards include a leverage limit, or core capital requirement, a tangible capital requirement and a risk-based capital requirement.
Pursuant to the Consent Order (defined below), Advantage is required to maintain Tier 1 risk based capital of 8%. “Tier 1” capital includes common stockholders equity, noncumulative perpetual preferred stock and minority interest in the equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries, less all intangibles, other than includable purchased mortgage servicing rights and credit card relationships. For purposes of computing risk-based capital, assets and certain off-balance sheet items are weighted at percentage levels ranging from 0% to 100%, depending on their relative risk. Advantage did not meet this 8% requirement at December 31, 2010 as its Tier 1 was 5.61%. Advantage was still not in compliance at February 28, 2011, as its Tier 1 was 5.75%. This failure to comply could result in additional enforcement action by the FDIC or the Division.
Regulatory Agreements.
On March 4, 2009 Camco entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (the “MOU”) with the FRB. The MOU prohibits Camco from engaging in certain activities while the MOU is in effect, including, without the prior written approval of the FRB, (1) the declaration or payment of dividends to stockholders or (2) the repurchase of Camco’s stock.
On April 30, 2009, Camco was notified by the FRB that it had conducted a “surveillance review” as of December 31, 2008. Based on that review, the FRB notified Camco that it must (i) eliminate shareholder dividends and (ii) defer interest payments on its 30-year junior subordinated deferrable interest notes that were issued to its wholly-owned subsidiary, Camco Statutory Trust I, in its trust preferred financing that was completed in July 2007. These prohibitions were memorialized in a written agreement with the FRB on August 5, 2009. Camco and Camco Statutory Trust I are permitted to defer interest and dividend payments, respectively, for up to five consecutive years without resulting in a default. Camco may not resume these dividend or interest payments until it receives approval from the FRB.
On August 5, 2009 Camco, entered into a written agreement with the FRB. The written agreement requires Camco to obtain FRB approval prior to: (i) declaring or paying any dividends; (ii) receiving dividends or any other form of payment representing a reduction in capital from Advantage; (iii) making any distributions of interest, principal or other sums on subordinated debentures or trust preferred securities; (iv) incurring, increasing or guaranteeing any debt; or (v) repurchasing any Camco stock. The written agreement also required Camco to develop a capital plan and submit it to the FRB for approval, which it has done.
Advantage entered into a consent agreement with the FDIC and the Division that provided for the issuance of an order by the FDIC and the Division. That order was executed by the FDIC and Division on July 31, 2009 (the “Consent Order”). The Consent Order requires Advantage to, among other things, (i) increase its Tier 1 risk based capital to 8%; and (ii) seek regulatory approval prior to declaring or paying any cash dividend. As a result of the Consent Order, Advantage is disqualified as a public depository under Ohio law and will incur higher premiums for FDIC insurance of its accounts.
The Bank will be considered “adequately capitalized” until the Consent Order is removed by the FDIC and the Division.
A material failure to comply with the provisions of the Consent Order, Written Agreement or the MOU could result in additional enforcement actions by the FDIC, the Division or the FRB.
On March 4, 2011, Camco was notified by the FRB that by March 31, 2011 it must divest of activities conducted pursuant to section 4(k) of the BHC Act, which means Camco Title Agency, and it must decertify as a financial holding company. Camco will comply with this request by liquidating Camco Title Agency and decertifying on or before March 31, 2011. After it decertifies, Camco will remain a bank holding company and will continue to be regulated by the FRB.
Transactions with Affiliates and Insiders
All transactions between banks and their affiliates must comply with Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act (the “FRA”) and the FRB’s Regulation W. An affiliate is any company or entity which controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the financial institution. In a holding company context, the parent holding company of a bank and any companies that are controlled by such parent holding company is affiliates of the institution. Generally, Sections 23A and 23B of the FRA (i) limit the extent to which a financial institution or its subsidiaries may engage in “covered transactions” with any one affiliate up to an amount equal to 10% of such institution’s capital stock and surplus for any one affiliate and 20% of such capital stock and surplus for the aggregate of such transactions with all affiliates, and (ii) require that all such transactions be on terms substantially the same, or at least as favorable to the institution or the subsidiary, as those provided to a non-affiliate. The term “covered transaction” includes the making of loans, purchase of assets, issuance of a guarantee and similar types of transactions. Exemptions from Sections 23A or 23B of the FRA may be granted only by the FRB. Advantage was in compliance with these requirements at December 31, 2010.

Change in Control
Federal Law. The Federal Deposit Insurance Act (the “FDIA”) provides that no person, acting directly or indirectly or in concert with one or more persons, shall acquire control of any insured depository institution or holding company, unless 60-days prior written notice has been given to the primary federal regulator for that institution and such regulator has not issued a notice disapproving the proposed acquisition. Control, for purposes of the FDIA, means the power, directly or indirectly, alone or acting in concert, to direct the management or policies of an insured institution or to vote 25% or more of any class of securities of such institution. Control exists in situations in which the acquiring party has direct or indirect voting control of at least 25% of the institution’s voting shares, controls in any manner the election of a majority of the directors of such institution or is determined to exercise a controlling influence over the management or policies of such institution. In addition, control is presumed to exist, under certain circumstances where the acquiring party (which includes a group “acting in concert”) has voting control of at least 10% of the institution’s voting stock. These restrictions do not apply to holding company acquisitions. See “Holding Company Regulation”.
Ohio Law. A statutory limitation on the acquisition of control of an Ohio bank requires the written approval of the Division prior to the acquisition by any person or entity of a controlling interest. Control exists, for purposes of Ohio law, when any person or entity which, either directly or indirectly, or acting in concert with one or more other persons or entities, owns, controls, holds with power to vote, or holds proxies representing, 15% or more of the voting shares or rights of an association, or controls in any manner the election or appointment of a majority of the directors. Ohio law also requires that certain acquisitions of voting securities that would result in the acquiring shareholder owning 20%, 33-1/3% or 50% of the outstanding voting securities of Camco must be approved in advance by the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding voting shares represented at a meeting at which a quorum is present and a majority of the portion of the outstanding voting shares represented at such a meeting, excluding the voting shares by the acquiring shareholder. This statute was intended, in part, to protect shareholders of Ohio corporations from coercive tender offers.
Holding Company Regulation
As a bank holding company, Camco has registered with the FRB and is subject to FRB regulations, examination, supervision and reporting requirements.
Source of Strength Doctrine
FRB policy historically has required bank holding companies to act as a source of strength to their bank subsidiaries and to commit capital and financial resources to support those subsidiaries. The Dodd-Frank Act codifies this policy as a statutory requirement. Such support may be required by the FRB at times when Camco might otherwise determine not to provide it. Any capital loan by a bank holding company to any of its subsidiary banks is subordinate in right of payment to deposits and to certain other indebtedness of such subsidiary banks. The BHC Act provides that in the event of a bank holding company’s bankruptcy, any commitment by the bank holding company to a federal bank regulatory agency to maintain the capital of a subsidiary bank will be assumed by the bankruptcy trustee and entitled to priority of payment.
Federal Reserve Requirements
FRB regulations currently require banks to maintain reserves of 3% of net transaction accounts (primarily NOW accounts) up to $58.8 million (subject to an exemption of up to $10.7 million). At December 31, 2010, Advantage was in compliance with its reserve requirements.
| Item 1A. | Risk Factors. |
Like all financial companies, Camco’s business and results of operations are subject to a number of risks, many of which are outside of our control. In addition to the other information in this report, readers should carefully consider that the following important factors, among others, could materially impact our business and future results of operations.

Table of Contents
Camco expects to continue to be subject to restrictions and conditions of the MOU, Written Agreement and Consent Order. As a result, Camco has incurred and expect to continue to incur significant additional regulatory compliance expense that will negatively effect our results of operations.
Camco and the Bank continue to be under the conditions of the MOU, FRB Written Agreement and Consent Order as a result of various regulatory concerns as of December 31, 2010. Camco has incurred and expect to continue to incur significant additional regulatory compliance expense in connection with these directives and will incur ongoing expenses attributable to compliance with their terms. Although Camco does not expect it, it is possible regulatory compliance expenses related to the directives could have a materially adverse impact on us in the future.
Our capital levels currently do not comply with the higher capital requirements required by the Consent Order.
Under the Consent Order, the FDIC and the Division required the Bank to raise its Tier I capital to 8% by February 28, 2010. As of December 31, 2010, the Bank needed approximately $17.8 million in additional capital based on assets at such date to meet this requirement. The Corporation currently does not have any capital available to invest in the Bank. Camco is considering various strategies to help us achieve the required capital level, but there is no assurance that any capital raising strategy can be completed successfully in the near future. Moreover, any further increases to our allowance for loan losses and operating losses would negatively impact our capital levels and make it more difficult to achieve the capital level directed by the FDIC and the Division. Based on our failure to meet the required capital level, the FDIC or the Division could take additional enforcement action against us.
In addition to the Consent Order, the FRB Written Agreement, MOU, governmental regulation and regulatory actions against us may further impair our operations or restrict our growth.
In addition to the requirements of the Consent Order, the FRB written agreement and the MOU, Camco is subject to significant governmental supervision and regulation. These regulations are intended primarily for the protection of depositors’ funds, federal deposit insurance funds and the banking system as a whole, not security holders. These regulations affect our lending practices, capital structure, investment practices, dividend policy and growth, among other things. Congress and federal regulatory agencies continually review banking laws, regulations and policies for possible changes. Statutes and regulations affecting our business may be changed at any time and the interpretation of these statutes and regulations by examining authorities may also change.
There can be no assurance that such changes to the statutes and regulations or to their interpretation will not adversely affect our business. Such changes could subject us to additional costs, limit the types of financial services and products Camco may offer and/or increase the ability of non-banks to offer competing financial services and products, among other things.
On July 21, 2010, the Dodd-Frank Act was signed into law. The Dodd-Frank Act represents a comprehensive overhaul of the financial services industry within the United States. There are a number of reform provisions that are likely to significantly impact the ways in which banks and bank holding companies, including Camco and Advantage, do business. For example, the Dodd-Frank Act changes the assessment base for federal deposit insurance premiums by modifying the deposit insurance assessment base calculation to equal a depository institution’s consolidated assets less tangible capital and permanently increases the standard maximum amount of deposit insurance per customer to $250,000 and non-interest bearing transaction accounts will have unlimited deposit insurance through December 31, 2012. The Dodd-Frank Act creates the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau as a new agency empowered to promulgate new and revise existing consumer protection regulations which may limit certain consumer fees or otherwise significantly change fee practices. The Dodd-Frank Act also imposes more stringent capital requirements on bank holding companies by, among other things, imposing leverage ratios on bank holding companies and prohibiting new trust preferred issuances from counting as Tier I capital. The Dodd-Frank Act also repeals the federal prohibition on the payment of interest on demand deposits, thereby permitting depository institutions to pay interest on business transaction and other accounts. Other significant changes from provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act include, but are not limited to: (i) changes to rules relating to debit card interchange fees; (ii) new comprehensive regulation of the over-the counter derivatives market; (iii) reform related to the regulation of credit rating agencies; (iv) restrictions on the ability of banks to sponsor or invest in private equity or hedge funds; and (v) the implementation of a number of new corporate governance provisions, including, but not limited to, requiring companies to “claw back” incentive compensation under certain circumstances, providing shareholders the opportunity to cast a non-binding vote on executive compensation, new executive compensation disclosure requirements and considerations regarding the independence of compensation advisors.
Many provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act will not be implemented immediately and will require interpretation and rule making by federal regulators. Camco is closely monitoring all relevant sections of the Dodd-Frank Act to ensure continued compliance with laws and regulations. While the ultimate effect of the Dodd-Frank Act on Camco cannot currently be determined, the law and its implementing rules and regulations are likely to result in increased compliance costs and fees paid to regulators, along with possible restrictions on our operations, all of which may have a material adverse affect on Camco’s operating results and financial condition.

Camco may not be able to attract and retain skilled people.
Our success depends in large part on our ability to attract and retain key people. There are a limited number of qualified persons in Southeastern Ohio with the knowledge and experience required to successfully implement our recovery plan. At this time, new senior executives are required to be approved by our regulators. Suitable candidates for positions may decline to consider employment with the Corporation given its financial condition and the current regulatory environment. In addition, it may be difficult for us to offer compensation packages that would be sufficient to convince candidates that are acceptable to our regulators and meet our requirements to agree to become our employee and/or relocate. Our financial condition and the existing uncertainties may result in existing employees seeking positions at other companies where these issues are not present. The unexpected loss of services of other key personnel could have a material adverse impact on our business because of a loss of their skills, knowledge of our market and years of industry experience. If Camco is not able to promptly recruit qualified personnel, which Camco requires to conduct our operations, our business and our ability to successfully implement our recovery plan could be affected.
Camco has a relatively high percentage of non-performing loans and classified assets relative to our total assets. If our allowance for loan losses is not sufficient to cover our actual loan losses, our ability to become profitable will be adversely affected.
At December 31, 2010, our non-performing loans totaled $33.8 million, representing 4.9% of total loans and 4.1% of total assets. In addition, loans which management has classified as either substandard, doubtful or loss totaled $53.6 million, representing 7.9% of total loans and 6.6% of total assets. At December 31, 2010, our allowance for loan losses was $16.9 million, representing 49.9% of non-performing loans. In the event our loan customers do not repay their loans according to their terms and the collateral securing the payment of these loans is insufficient to pay any remaining loan balance, Camco may experience significant loan losses, which could have a materially adverse effect on our operating results. Camco makes various assumptions and judgments about the collectability of our loan portfolio, including the creditworthiness of our borrowers and the value of the real estate and other assets serving as collateral for the repayment of many of our loans. In determining the amount of the allowance for loan losses, Camco reviews loans and our loss and delinquency experience, and evaluates economic conditions. If our assumptions are incorrect, our allowance for loan losses may not be sufficient to cover probable losses in our loan portfolio, resulting in additions to our allowance. The additions to our allowance for loan losses would be made through increased provision for loan losses, which would reduce our income.
Since 2008, our loan quality has been negatively impacted by deteriorating conditions within the commercial real estate market and economy as a whole, which has caused declines in commercial real estate values and deterioration in financial condition of various commercial borrowers. Additionally, increases in delinquent real estate mortgage loans have occurred as a result of deteriorating economic conditions and a decline in the housing market across our geographic footprint that reflected declining home prices and increasing inventories of houses for sale. These conditions have led Camco to downgrade the loan quality ratings on various commercial real estate loans through its normal loan review process. In addition, several impaired loans have become under-collateralized due to reductions in the estimated net realizable fair value of the underlying collateral. As a result, Camco’s provision for loans losses, net charge-offs and nonperforming loans in recent quarters have continued to be higher than historical levels. The additional provisions for loan losses in this period were largely attributed to the aforementioned issues.
Bank regulators periodically review Advantage’s allowance for loan losses and may require it to increase the allowance for loan losses. Any increase in the allowance for loan losses as required by these regulatory authorities could have a material adverse effect on Camco’s results of operations and financial condition.
Camco may elect or be compelled to seek additional capital in the future, but that capital may not be available when it is needed.
Camco and Advantage are required by federal and state regulatory authorities to maintain adequate levels of capital to support their operations. Currently, Advantage is not in compliance with the Tier 1 capital requirement required by the Consent Order. As a result, Camco must raise additional capital. Camco has engaged an investment banking firm and are in the process of developing a plan to raise additional capital, the Corporation has not been in compliance with neither the Consent Order nor its capital directive since June 2010. The financial condition of the Bank and the Corporation has declined since that time, and, on December 31, 2010, the Corporation’s shareholders’ equity totaled $46.1 million. Camco’s ability to raise additional capital will depend on its financial performance, conditions in the capital markets, economic conditions and a number of other factors, many of which are outside of its control. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that Camco can raise additional capital on terms it deems acceptable. If Camco cannot raise additional capital, it may have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations and prospects, and may result in further enforcement action by the FRB, FDIC or Division, including a potential federal conservatorship or receivership of the Bank, or a requirement that Camco sell or transfer its assets or take other action which would likely result in a significant loss of the value of Camco’s ownership interest in the Bank and a significant loss of the value of the shares held by Camco’s stockholders.

The recent repeal of federal prohibitions on payment of interest on demand deposits could increase our interest expense.
All federal prohibitions on the ability of financial institutions to pay interest on demand deposit accounts were repealed as part of the Dodd-Frank Act. As a result, beginning on July 21, 2011, financial institutions could commence offering interest on demand deposits to compete for clients. Camco does not yet know what interest rates other institutions may offer. Camco’s interest expense will increase and its net interest margin will decrease if Camco begins offering interest on demand deposits to attract new customers or maintain current customers, which could have a material adverse effect on Camco’s business, financial condition and results of operation.
Camco is subject to examinations and challenges by tax authorities.
In the normal course of business, Camco and its subsidiaries, are routinely subject to examinations from federal and state tax authorities regarding the amount of taxes due in connection with investments made and the businesses in which Camco has engaged. Recently, federal and state tax authorities have become increasingly aggressive in challenging tax positions taken by financial institutions. These tax positions may relate to tax compliance, sales and use, franchise, gross receipts, payroll, property and income tax issues, including tax base, apportionment and tax credit planning. The challenges made by tax authorities may result in adjustments to the timing or amount of taxable income or deductions or the allocation of income among tax jurisdictions. Currently, Camco’s 2009 tax year is being audited by the Internal Revenue Service. If any challenges are made and are not resolved in Camco’s favor, they could have a material adverse effect on Camco’s financial condition and results of operations.
A large percentage of our loans are collateralized by real estate and continued deterioration in the real estate market may result in additional losses and adversely affect our financial results.
Our results of operations have been, and in future periods will continue to be significantly impacted by the economy in Ohio, and to a lesser extent, other markets Camco is exposed to, including Kentucky and West Virginia.
Deterioration of the economic environment Camco is exposed to, including a continued decline or worsening declines in the real estate market and single-family home re-sales or a material external shock, may significantly impair the value of our collateral and our ability to sell the collateral upon foreclosure. In the event of a default with respect to any of these loans, amounts received upon sale of the collateral may be insufficient to recover outstanding principal and interest on the loan. Over the past three years, material declines in the value of the real estate assets securing many of our commercial real estate loans has led to significant credit losses in this portfolio. Because of our high concentration of loans secured by real estate (the majority of which were originated several years ago), it is possible that Camco will continue to experience some level of credit losses and high provisions even if the overall real estate market stabilizes or improves due to the continuing uncertainty surrounding many of the specific real estate assets securing our loans and the weakened financial condition of some of our commercial real estate borrowers and guarantors.
Difficult economic conditions and market volatility have adversely impacted the banking industry and financial markets generally and may significantly affect our business, financial condition, or results of operation.
The continued deteriorating economic conditions in our markets may negatively affect the Corporation. Falling home prices and increasing foreclosures; unemployment and underemployment have negatively impacted the credit performance of mortgage loans and resulted in significant write-downs of asset values by financial institutions. The resulting write-downs to assets of financial institutions have caused many financial institutions to seek additional capital, to merge with larger and stronger institutions and, in some cases, to seek government assistance or bankruptcy protection.
Many lenders and institutional investors have reduced and, in some cases, ceased to provide funding to borrowers, including to other financial institutions because of concern about the stability of the financial markets and the strength of counterparties. It is difficult to predict how long these economic conditions will exist, which of our markets, products or other businesses will ultimately be affected, and whether management’s actions will effectively mitigate these external factors. Accordingly, the resulting lack of available credit, lack of confidence in the financial sector, decreased consumer confidence, increased volatility in the financial markets and reduced business activity could materially and adversely affect Camco’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Table of Contents
As a result of the challenges presented by economic conditions, Camco may face the following risks in connection with these events:
| • | Inability of borrowers to make timely repayments of their loans, or decreases in value of real estate collateral securing the payment of such loans resulting in significant credit losses, which could result in increased delinquencies, foreclosures and customer bankruptcies, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our operating results. |
| • | Increased regulation of the financial services industry, including heightened legal standards and regulatory requirements or expectations. Compliance with such regulation will likely increase costs and may limit Camco’s ability to pursue business opportunities. |
| • | Further disruptions in the capital markets or other events, including actions by rating agencies and deteriorating investor expectations, may result in an inability to borrow on favorable terms or at all from other financial institutions. |
| • | Increased competition among financial services companies due to the recent consolidation of certain competing financial institutions and the conversion of certain investment banks to bank holding companies, which may adversely affect Camco’s ability to market our products and services. |
Volatility in the economy may negatively impact the fair value of our stock.
The market price for Camco’s common stock has been volatile in the past, and several factors could cause the price to fluctuate substantially in the future, including:
| • | announcements of developments related to our business; | ||
| • | fluctuations in our results of operations; | ||
| • | sales of substantial amounts of our securities into the marketplace; | ||
| • | general conditions in our markets or the worldwide economy; | ||
| • | a shortfall in revenues or earnings compared to securities analysts’ expectations; | ||
| • | our inability to pay cash dividends | ||
| • | changes in analysts’ recommendations or projections; and | ||
| • | our announcement of other projects. |
Changes in interest rates could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
Our results of operations depend substantially on our net interest income, which is the difference between (i) interest income on interest-earning assets, principally loans and investment securities, and (ii) interest expense on deposit accounts and borrowings. These rates are highly sensitive to many factors beyond our control, including general economic conditions, inflation, recession, unemployment, money supply and the policies of various governmental and regulatory authorities. While Camco has taken measures intended to manage the risks of operating in a changing interest rate environment, there can be no assurance that these measures will be effective in avoiding undue interest rate risk.
Increases in interest rates can affect the value of loans and other assets, including our ability to realize gains on the sale of assets. Camco originates loans for sale and for our portfolio. Increasing interest rates may reduce the volume of origination of loans for sale and consequently the volume of fee income earned on such sales. Further, increasing interest rates may adversely affect the ability of borrowers to pay the principal or interest on loans and leases, resulting in an increase in non-performing assets and a reduction of income recognized.
In contrast, decreasing interest rates have the effect of causing clients to refinance mortgage loans faster than anticipated. This causes the value of assets related to the servicing rights on loans sold to be lower than originally anticipated. If this happens, Camco may need to write down the value of our servicing assets faster, which would accelerate our expenses and lower our earnings.

The Corporation relies, in part, on external financing to fund its operations and the availability of such funds in the future could adversely impact its growth strategy and prospects.
The Bank relies on deposits, advances from the FHLB and other borrowings to fund its operations. The Corporation also has previously issued subordinated debentures to raise additional capital to fund its operations. Although the Corporation considers such sources of funds adequate for its current capital needs, the Corporation may seek additional debt or equity capital in the future to achieve its long-term business objectives. The sale of equity or convertible debt securities in the future may be dilutive to the Corporation shareholders, and debt refinancing arrangements may require the Corporation to pledge some of its assets and enter into covenants that would restrict its ability to incur further indebtedness. Additional financing sources, if sought, might be unavailable to the Corporation or, if available, could be on terms unfavorable to it. If additional financing sources are unavailable, not available on reasonable terms or the Corporation is unable to obtain any required regulatory approval for additional debt, the Corporation’s growth strategy and future prospects could be adversely impacted.
Credit risks could adversely affect our results of operations.
There are inherent risks associated with our lending activities, including credit risk, which is the risk that borrowers may not repay outstanding loans or that the value of the collateral securing loans may decrease. Camco extends credit to a variety of customers based on internally set standards and judgment. Camco attempts to manage credit risk through a program of underwriting standards, the review of certain credit decisions and an on-going process of assessment of the quality of the credit already extended. However, conditions such as inflation, recession, unemployment, changes in interest rates, money supply and other factors beyond our control may increase our credit risk. Such adverse changes in the economy may have a negative impact on the ability of borrowers to repay their loans. Because Camco has a significant amount of real estate loans, decreases in real estate values could adversely affect the value of property used as collateral. In addition, substantially all of our loans are to individuals and businesses in Ohio. Consequently, any decline in the economy of this market area could have a materially adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
Camco operates in an extremely competitive market, and our business will suffer if Camco is unable to compete effectively.
In our market area, Camco encounters significant competition from other commercial banks, savings associations, savings banks, insurance companies, consumer finance companies, credit unions, other lenders and with the issuers of commercial paper and other securities, such as shares in money market mutual funds. The increasingly competitive environment is a result primarily of changes in regulation and the accelerating pace of consolidation among financial service providers. Many of our competitors have substantially greater resources and lending limits than Camco does and may offer services that Camco does not or cannot provide.
Our ability to pay cash dividends is subject to prior FRB approval.
The MOU prohibits the Corporation from paying dividends without the FRB’s prior approval. Camco does not know how long this restriction will remain in place. Even if Camco is permitted to pay a dividend, Camco is dependent primarily upon the earnings of our operating subsidiaries for funds to pay dividends on our common stock. The payment of dividends by our subsidiaries is subject to certain regulatory restrictions. Currently, Advantage is prohibited from paying any dividends to Camco without the prior approval of the FDIC and the Division. In addition, federal law generally prohibits a depository institution from making any capital distributions (including payment of a dividend) to its parent holding company if the depository institution would thereafter and or continue to be undercapitalized. As a result, any payment of dividends in the future by Camco will be dependent, in large part, on our subsidiaries’ ability to satisfy these regulatory restrictions and our subsidiaries’ earnings, capital requirements, financial condition and other factors.
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain.
Management’s accounting policies and methods are fundamental to how Camco records and reports our financial condition and results of operations. Our management must exercise judgment in selecting and applying many of these accounting policies and methods in order to ensure that they comply with generally accepted accounting principles and reflect management’s judgment as to the most appropriate manner in which to record and report our financial condition and results of operations. The most critical estimates are the level of the allowance of loan losses, the valuation of mortgage servicing rights and the valuation allowance on the deferred tax asset. Due to the inherent nature of these estimates, Camco cannot provide absolute assurance that it will not significantly increase the allowance for loan losses or sustain loan losses that are significantly higher than the provided allowance, nor that it will not recognize a significant provision for the impairment of mortgage servicing rights.

Table of Contents
Our organizational documents may have the effect of discouraging a third party from acquiring us.
Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws contain provisions that make it more difficult for a third party to gain control over or acquire us. These provisions also could discourage proxy contests and may make it more difficult for dissident stockholders to elect representatives as directors and take other corporate actions. These provisions of our governing documents may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a transaction or a change in control that might be in the best interest of our stockholders.
Consumers may decide not to use banks to complete their financial transactions.
Technology and other changes are allowing parties to utilize alternative methods to complete financial transactions that historically have involved banks. For example, consumers can now maintain funds in brokerage accounts or mutual funds that would have historically been held as bank deposits. Consumers can also complete transactions such as paying bills and/or transferring funds directly without the assistance of banks. The process of eliminating banks as intermediaries could result in the loss of fee income, as well as the loss of customer deposits and the related income generated from those deposits. The loss of these revenue streams and the lower cost deposits as a source of funds could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
Camco may be named as a defendant from time to time in a variety of litigation and other actions.
Camco or one of its subsidiaries may be named as a defendant from time to time in a variety of litigation arising in the ordinary course of their respective businesses. Such litigation is normally covered by errors and omissions or other appropriate insurance. However, significant litigation could cause Camco to devote substantial time and resources to defending its business or result in judgments or settlements that exceed insurance coverage, which could have a material adverse effect on Camco’s financial condition and results of operation. Further, any claims asserted against Camco, regardless of merit or eventual outcome may harm Camco’s reputation and result in loss of business. In addition, Camco may not be able to obtain new or different insurance coverage, or adequate replacement policies with acceptable terms.
The Corporation’s allowance for loan losses may not be adequate to cover actual losses.
The Corporation maintains an allowance for loan losses to provide for loan defaults and non-performance. The Corporation’s allowance for loan losses may not be adequate to cover actual loan losses and future provisions for loan losses could materially and adversely affect the Corporation’s operating results. The Corporation’s allowance for loan losses is based on its historical loss experience, as well as an evaluation of the risks associated with its loans held for investment. The amount of future losses is susceptible to changes in economic, operating and other conditions, including changes in interest rates that may be beyond the Corporation’s control, and these losses may exceed current estimates. Federal regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, review the Corporation’s loans and allowance for loan losses. While the Corporation believes that its allowance for loan losses is adequate to cover current losses, the Corporation could need to increase its allowance for loan losses or regulators could require it to increase this allowance. Either of these occurrences could materially and adversely affect the Corporation’s earnings and profitability.
Our ability to use net operating loss carry forwards to reduce future tax payments may be limited or restricted.
Camco has generated significant net operating losses (“NOLs”) as a result of our recent losses. Canco generally is able to carry NOLs forward to reduce taxable income in future years. However, our ability to utilize the NOLs is subject to the rules of Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. Section 382 generally restricts the use of NOLs after an “ownership change.” An ownership change occurs if, among other things, the shareholders (or specified groups of shareholders) who own or have owned, directly or indirectly, 5% or more of a corporation’s common stock or are otherwise treated as 5% shareholders under Section 382 and the Treasury regulations caused in increase in their aggregate percentage ownership of that corporation’s stock by more than 50 percentage points over the lowest percentage of the stock owned by these shareholders over a three-year rolling period. In the event of an ownership change, Section 382 imposes an annual limitation on the amount of taxable income a corporation may offset with NOL carry forwards. This annual limitation is generally equal to the product of the value of the corporation’s stock on the date of the ownership, multiplied by the long-term tax-exempt rate published monthly by the Internal Revenue Service. Any unused annual limitation may be carried over to later years until the applicable expiration date for the respective NOL carry forwards.

Camco does not anticipate that a planned recapitalization, rights offering will cause an “ownership change” within the meaning of Section 382. In order to reduce the likelihood that future transactions in our common shares will result in an ownership change, Camco could adopt a Tax Benefits Preservation Plan, which provides an economic disincentive for any person or group to become an owner, for relevant tax purposes, of 4.99% or more of our common shares. To further protect our tax benefits, a Protective Charter Amendment could be proposed which would be submitted for shareholder approval at our annual meeting of shareholders on May 24, 2011. However, Camco cannot ensure that our ability to use our NOLs to offset income will not become limited in the future. As a result, Camco could pay taxes earlier and in larger amounts than would be the case if our NOLs were available to reduce our federal income taxes without restriction.
A material breach in Camco’s security systems may have a significant effect on Camco’s business and reputation.
Camco collects processes and stores sensitive consumer data by utilizing computer systems and telecommunications networks operated by both Camco and third party service providers. Camco has security and backup and recovery systems in place, as well as a business continuity plan, to ensure the computer systems will not be inoperable, to the extent possible. Camco also has security to prevent unauthorized access to the computer systems and requires its third party service providers to maintain similar controls. However, management cannot be certain that these measures will be successful. A security breach of the computer systems and loss of confidential information, such as customer account numbers and related information could result in a loss of customers’ confidence and, thus, loss of business.

General
Since its incorporation in 1970, Camco Financial Corporation (“Camco” or the “Corporation”) has evolved into a full-service provider of financial products through its subsidiaries, Advantage Bank (“Advantage or “Bank”) and Camco Title Agency. Utilizing a common marketing theme based on Camco’s commitment to personalized customer service, Camco has grown from $22.8 million of consolidated assets in 1970 to $815.0 million of consolidated assets at December 31, 2010. Camco’s rate of growth is largely attributable to its acquisitions and its continued expansion of product lines from the limited deposit and loan offerings which the Bank could offer in the heavily regulated environment of the 1970s to the wider array of financial service products that commercial banks traditionally offer.
27
Table of Contents
Management believes that continued success in the financial services industry will be achieved by those institutions with a rigorous dedication to building value-added customer-oriented organizations. Toward this end, each of the Bank’s regions has the ability to make local decisions for customer contacts and services, however back-office operations are consolidated and centralized. Based on consumer and business preferences, the Bank’s management designs financial service products with a view towards differentiating each of the constituent regions from its competition. Management believes that the Bank regions’ ability to rapidly adapt to consumer and business needs and preferences is essential to them as community-based financial institutions competing against the larger regional and money-center bank holding companies.
Camco’s profitability depends primarily on its level of net interest income, which is the difference between interest income on interest-earning assets, principally loans, mortgage-backed securities and investment securities, and interest expense on deposit accounts and borrowings. In recent years, Camco’s operations have also been heavily influenced by its level of other income, including mortgage banking income and other fee income. Camco’s operations are also affected by general, administrative and other expenses, including employee compensation and benefits, occupancy expense, data processing, franchise taxes, advertising, other operating expenses and federal income tax expense.
Overview
During 2010, the economic environment for financial services companies continued to be challenging. We continued to execute our long-term strategic plan to diversify the balance sheet by strategically working to increase our commercial, commercial real estate and consumer loan portfolios and improve our funding mix by reducing borrowings and increasing transaction-based deposits.
We have found that “core” deposit growth continues to be challenging. Competition for deposits continues to put pressure on marginal funding costs, despite continued low rates in 2010. During fiscal 2010, deposits decreased 1.2%, primarily due to our decrease in public funds and brokered deposits. The brokered deposits were not renewed in 2010 as loan balances decreased and cash was utilized to decrease higher yielding non “core” funding and borrowed funds.
The real estate market continues to create a very challenging environment for most financial institutions. In the first half of 2010, the homebuyer tax credit increased sales and temporarily propped up prices. However, bankruptcies, foreclosures and high unemployment have continued in Ohio and the oversupply of housing has continued to depress prices. We are working diligently to manage delinquencies and work with our loan customers in order to reduce losses for them, as well as our Corporation.
Nonperforming loans remained stable at $33.8 million at the end of 2010 compared to $36.4 million at the end of 2009. We continue to deal with the economic challenges in our markets, through our loan charge-offs and provision for loan losses as we recognize the results of these current economic conditions and issues related to higher than normal unemployment. Net charge offs totaled $17.7 million during 2010 as we continued to work with borrowers during these economic conditions.
The Corporation has engaged an investment banking firm and is developing a capital plan that may include balance sheet reduction, the sale of branches, issuing common stock, preferred stock, debt or some combination of those issuances, or other financing alternatives that will be treated as capital. Although, the Corporation anticipates raising additional capital, the Board of Directors has not yet determined the type, timing, amount, or terms of possible securities to be issued in the offering, and there are no assurances that an offering will be completed or that the Corporation will succeed in this endeavor. In addition, a transaction, which would likely involve equity financing would result in substantial dilution to current stockholders and could adversely affect the price of the Corporation’s common stock.
We believe we are taking significant steps forward in managing our operational efficiency. We are continuing our focus on improving noninterest income and controlling noninterest expense by exiting unprofitable lines of business and refining our operations. We continue to analyze new products to deepen relationships with our “core” customers and improve the structure of our balance sheet.
On March 4, 2011, Camco was notified by the FRB that by March 31, 2011 it must divest of activities conducted pursuant to section 4(k) of the BHC Act, which means Camco Title Agency, and it must decertify as a financial holding company. Camco will comply with this request by liquidating Camco Title Agency and decertifying on or before March 31, 2011. After it decertifies, Camco will remain a bank holding company and will continue to be regulated by the FRB. This transaction will reduce profitability and earnings in the future.

Critical Accounting Policies
“Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” as well as disclosures found elsewhere in this quarterly report, are based upon Camco’s consolidated financial statements, which are prepared in accordance with US GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires Camco to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Several factors are considered in determining whether or not a policy is critical in the preparation of financial statements. These factors include, among other things, whether the estimates are significant to the financial statements, the nature of the estimates, the ability to readily validate the estimates with other information including third parties or available prices, and sensitivity of the estimates to changes in economic conditions and whether alternative accounting methods may be utilized under US GAAP.
Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of mortgage servicing rights and the valuation of deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Summary. We believe the accounting estimates related to the allowance for loan losses, the capitalization, amortization, and valuation of mortgage servicing rights and deferred income taxes are “critical accounting estimates” because: (1) the estimates are highly susceptible to change from period to period because they require us to make assumptions concerning the changes in the types and volumes of the portfolios, rates of future prepayments, and anticipated economic conditions, and (2) the impact of recognizing an impairment or loan loss could have a material effect on Camco’s assets reported on the balance sheet as well as its net earnings.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The procedures for assessing the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses reflect management’s evaluation of credit risk after careful consideration of all information available to management. In developing this assessment, management must rely on estimates and exercise judgment regarding matters where the ultimate outcome is unknown such as economic factors, developments affecting companies in specific industries and issues with respect to single borrowers. Depending on changes in circumstances, future assessments of credit risk may yield materially different results, which may require an increase or a decrease in the allowance for loan losses.
Each quarter, management analyzes the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses based on review of the loans in the portfolio along with an analysis of external factors (including current housing price depreciation, homeowners’ loss of equity, etc) and historical delinquency and loss trends. The allowance is developed through specific components; 1) the specific allowance for loans subject to individual analysis, 2) the allowance for classified loans not otherwise subject to individual analysis and 3) the allowance for non-classified loans (primarily homogenous).
Classified loans with indication or acknowledgment of deterioration are subject to individual analysis. Loan classifications are those used by regulators consisting of Special Mention, Substandard, Doubtful and Loss. In evaluating these loans for impairment, the measure of expected loss is based on the present value of the expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, a loan’s observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. All other classified assets and non-classified assets are combined with the homogenous loan pools and segregated into loan segments. The segmentation is based on grouping loans with similar risk characteristics (one-to-four family, home equity, etc.). Loss rate factors are developed for each loan segment which is used to estimate losses and determine an allowance. The loss factors for each segment are derived from historical delinquency, classification, and charge-off rates and adjusted for economic factors and an estimated loss scenario.
The allowance is reviewed by management to determine whether the amount is considered adequate to absorb probable, incurred losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Management’s evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is an estimate based on management’s current judgment about the credit quality of the loan portfolio. This evaluation includes specific loss estimates on certain individually reviewed loans, statistical loss estimates for loan pools that are based on historical loss experience, and general loss estimates that are based upon the size, quality, and concentration characteristics of the various loan portfolios, adverse situations that may affect a borrower’s ability to repay, and current economic and industry conditions. Also considered as part of that judgment is a review of the Bank’s trends in delinquencies and loan losses, as well as trends in delinquencies and losses for the region and nationally, and economic factors. While the Corporation strives to reflect all known risk factors in its evaluations, judgment errors may occur.

Mortgage Servicing Rights
To determine the fair value of its mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) each reporting quarter, the Corporation provides information to a third party valuation firm, representing loan information in each pooling period accompanied by escrow amounts. The third party then evaluates the possible impairment of MSRs as described below.
MSRs are recognized as separate assets or liabilities when loans are sold with servicing retained. A pooling methodology, in which loans with similar characteristics are “pooled” together, is applied for valuation purposes. Once pooled, each grouping of loans is evaluated on a discounted earnings basis to determine the present value of future earnings that the Bank could expect to realize from the portfolio. Earnings are projected from a variety of sources including loan service fees, net interest earned on escrow balances, miscellaneous income and costs to service the loans. The present value of future earnings is the estimated fair value for the pool, calculated using consensus assumptions that a third party purchaser would utilize in evaluating a potential acquisition of the MSR’s.
Events that may significantly affect the estimates used are changes in interest rates and the related impact on mortgage loan prepayment speeds and the payment performance of the underlying loans. The interest rate for net interest earned on escrow balances, which is supplied by management, takes into consideration the investment portfolio average yield as well as current short duration investment yields. Management believes this methodology provides a reasonable estimate. Mortgage loan prepayment speeds are calculated by the third party provider utilizing the Economic Outlook as published by the Office of Chief Economist of Freddie Mac in estimating prepayment speeds and provides a specific scenario with each evaluation. Based on the assumptions discussed, pre-tax projections are prepared for each pool of loans serviced. These earnings figures approximate the cash flow that could be received from the servicing portfolio. Valuation results are presented quarterly to management. At that time, management reviews the information and MSR’s are marked to lower of amortized cost or fair value for the current quarter.
Deferred Income Taxes
Camco recognizes expense for federal income taxes currently payable as well as for deferred federal taxes for estimated future tax effects of temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets. Realization of a deferred tax asset is dependent upon generating sufficient taxable income in either the carry forward or carry back periods to cover net operating losses generated by the reversal of temporary differences. A valuation allowance is provided by way of a charge to income tax expense if it is determined that it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. If different assumptions and conditions were to prevail, the valuation allowance may not be adequate to absorb unrealized deferred taxes and the amount of income taxes payable may need to be adjusted by way of a charge or credit to expense. Furthermore, income tax returns are subject to audit by the IRS. Income tax expense for current and prior periods is subject to adjustment based upon the outcome of such audits. Camco believes it has adequately accrued for all probable income taxes payable. Accrual of income taxes payable and valuation allowances against deferred tax assets are estimates subject to change based upon the outcome of future events.
Discussion of Financial Condition Changes from December 31, 2010 to December 31, 2009
At December 31, 2010, Camco’s consolidated assets totaled $815.0 million, a decrease of $27.7 million, or 3.3%, from the December 31, 2009 total. The decrease in total assets was comprised primarily of decreases in securities and cash and interest bearing deposits in other financial institutions which were offset partially by the increase in loans receivable net. Further deterioration of the residential loan market and fewer new purchases may continue to shift the loan portfolio toward commercial loans. The current loan rates may slow residential lending and the sale of fixed rate loans, therefore it is not likely that the profits on gain on sale will continue to be as strong in 2011. Possible growth in deposits would most likely be used to reduce outstanding borrowings and brokered deposits or fund commercial loan growth which is expected in the second half of 2011. Management’s overall focus at the Bank has been on managing credit, reducing risk within the loan portfolio and enhancing liquidity and capital in a deteriorating economic environment. Continuous progress is being made on addressing these issues, but we expect the distressed economic environment to continue through 2011.

Cash and interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions totaled $29.1 million at December 31, 2010 a decrease of $9.0 million, or 23.7%, from December 31, 2009 levels. This decrease is reflective of our decision to rely on “core” relationships and discontinuing purchases of brokered deposits and bidding on public funds during 2010. Securities totaled $34.7 million at December 31, 2010, a decrease of $23.3 million, or 40.2%, from the total at December 31, 2009. Investment security purchases totaled $2.2 million, and principal repayments totaled $25.5 million. The yield on securities purchased during the period was 4.26%.
Approximately 13.2% of the securities portfolio is expected to mature or prepay during 2011. We have kept the duration and average life of the securities portfolio weighted throughout the upcoming years in order to provide liquidity and to reduce borrowings, when available.
At December 31, 2010, other than $2.6 million of municipal bonds, all of our debt securities were issued and guaranteed by US Government sponsored enterprises such as Freddie Mac, Fannie Mae, Ginnie Mae and the FHLB. We held no private-label mortgage-backed securities or collateralized debt obligations.
Loans receivable net and loans held for sale totaled $670.0 million at December 31, 2010, an increase of $10.6 million, or 1.6%, from the total at December 31, 2009. The increase resulted primarily from loan disbursements and purchases totaling $268.3 million and an increase of $18.5 million of provision relating to our allowance for loan and leases partially offset by repayments of $144.6 million, loan sales of $88.7 million and $6.0 million of transfers to real estate owned. Loan origination volume, including purchases of loans, increased from the comparable 2009 period by $23.2 million, or 9.5%, while the volume of loan sales decreased by $19.8 million, or 18.2% year to year. The number of loans originated for sale in the secondary market continued to increase significantly as rates decreased and customers re-financed at the current lower rates. Instead of selling adjustable rate loans, we have typically held adjustable-rate mortgage loans for investment as an integral part of our strategy.
Loan originations during the 12 month period were comprised primarily of $123.5 million in commercial loans, $121.4 million of loans secured by one- to four-family residential real estate and $23.5 million in consumer and other loans. Our intent is to expand commercial real estate lending in future periods as a means of increasing the yield on our loan portfolio and continue with our strategic plan of moving to a more “bank” like institution. However, lending volumes of acceptable risk have diminished somewhat due to a slowing economy and loan repayments are being used to reduce borrowings and maintain liquidity.
During 2010, the yield on loans was 5.72% a decrease of 30 basis points as compared to 6.02% for 2009. The decrease in yield is due to lower average loan balances coupled with lower effective rates in the loan portfolio during 2010. Adjustable rate loans re-priced lower to the current rate environment and new loans are also at the lower market rates.
The allowance for loan losses totaled $16.9 million and $16.1 million at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, representing 49.9% and 44.2% of nonperforming loans at those dates. Nonperforming loans (three monthly payments or more delinquent plus nonaccrual loans) totaled $33.8 million and $36.4 million at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, constituting 4.9% and 5.4% of total net loans, including loans held for sale, at those dates. Net charge-offs totaled $17.7 million for 2010 and were primarily comprised of $6.5 million of non residential real estate and commercial and $6.0 million of 1-4 family loans with the additional $5.2 million being numerous loans and loan types.

Although we believe that the allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2010 is adequate to cover losses inherent in the loan portfolio at that date based upon the available facts and circumstances, there can be no assurance that additions to the allowance for loan losses will not be necessary in future periods, which could adversely affect our results of operations. Unemployment rates in our markets and Ohio in general, are higher than the national average however the rates have experienced a significant decline over the past year. This can be viewed as a positive sign and a small economic recovery. Ohio registered the nation’s eighth-highest state foreclosure rate in 2010. Additionally, Ohio is experiencing declining values of residential real estate. However, Ohio in general has not experienced significant increases in home values over the past five years like many regions in the U.S., which should comparatively mitigate losses on loans. Nonetheless, these factors, compounded by a very uncertain national economic outlook, may continue to increase the level of future losses beyond our current expectations.
At December 31, 2010, the Corporation’s real estate owned (REO) consisted of 150 repossessed properties with a net book value of $10.1 million compared to $9.7 million at December 31, 2009. Initial loss is recorded as a charge to the allowance for loan losses within 90 days of being transferred to REO. Thereafter, if there is a further deterioration in value, a specific valuation allowance is established and charged to operations. The Corporation reflects costs to carry REO as period costs in operations when incurred. When property is acquired through foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure, it is initially recorded at the fair value of the related assets at the date of foreclosure, less estimated costs to sell the property.
The Corporation works with borrowers to avoid foreclosure if possible and we continue to aggressively work with borrowers to mitigate additional losses, if it becomes inevitable that a borrower will not be able to retain ownership of their property, the Corporation often seeks a deed in lieu of foreclosure in order to gain control of the property earlier in the recovery process. The strategy of pursuing deeds in lieu of foreclosure should result in a reduction in the holding period for nonperforming assets and ultimately reduce economic losses.
Deposits totaled $651.8 million at December 31, 2010 a decrease of $8.1 million, or 1.2% from December 31, 2009. The following table details our deposit portfolio balances and the average rate paid on our deposit portfolio at December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009:

The decrease was primarily due to decreases in brokered certificates of deposits, interest-bearing demand accounts and public funds. We continue to focus and implement our strategy of improving the long-term funding mix of the Bank’s deposit portfolio by developing “core relationships” with small businesses, and adding commercial and retail checking accounts. In 2009, we implemented a number of organizational and product development initiatives including a new suite of commercial and small business checking accounts, enhancements to our online business cash management system, and the launch of remote deposit capture solution. We believe these products will continue to help us be more competitive for business checking accounts. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” in this MD&A for further discussion on our deposit strategy and additional liquidity risks.

We have reduced the rates offered on some of our accounts and feel we are competitive with current markets and are planning on strategic growth of “core relationships”. We also believe that if we are able to maintain the majority of retail certificates of deposit maturing in 2011 we will continue to slightly decrease our cost of funds which will help us remain stable and possibly incur some reduction of costs in 2011. To reduce interest rate risk over the long term, we will increase our efforts to lengthen the duration of our deposit structure and our FHLB borrowings.
We anticipate continuing to pay down brokered deposits in 2011 which will help maintain the Bank’s margin, by growing core deposits. In the future we do not expect to use brokered deposits for liquidity position but may be used in contingency funding if needed. We acknowledge that brokered deposits are not core, franchise-enhancing deposits, and we intend to continue our strategy of improving the long-term funding mix of the Bank’s deposit portfolio by aggregating small business, commercial and retail checking accounts.
Advances from the FHLB and other borrowings decreased by $4.4 million, or 4.5%, to a total of $92.9 million at December 31, 2010. The Corporation continues to focus on our strategy of growing and replacing a portion of these funding sources with core relationship deposits (checking, savings, money market and CD accounts) in 2011 as they mature. Approximately $12.0 million of advances are expected to mature in 2011.
Stockholders’ equity totaled $46.1 million at December 31, 2010, a decrease of $14.4 million, or 23.8% from December 31, 2009. The decrease resulted primarily from a net loss of $14.6 million.SeeConsolidated Statements of Stockholders’ Equity on page 48 for additional information.
During 2009, management was notified by the FDIC that for Advantage to be categorized as “adequately-capitalized” under the regulatory framework the Bank must have Tier 1 leverage to average assets equating to 8.00%. To be categorized as “adequately-capitalized” Camco and Advantage must maintain this minimum capital ratio per the FDIC. At December 31, 2010 the Bank’s Tier 1 capital was 5.61%. A failure to comply with the provisions of either agreement could result in additional enforcement actions by the FDIC, the Division or the FRB.
Comparison of Results of Operations for the Years Ended December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009
General.Camco’s net loss of $14.6 million, or $2.02 per share for the year ended December 31, 2010, compared to a net loss of $11.2 million, or $1.56 per share for the same period in 2009. The increase in the net loss primarily reflects a decrease in other income related to the valuation of mortgage servicing rights an increase in general administrative and other expense and a 100% valuation on our deferred tax asset offset, partially by increased net interest income. Additionally, Camco continued to increase provisions as high levels of charge-offs continued in 2010. This is reflective of the impact of the distressed commercial real estate values and general economic conditions.
Net Interest Income.Net interest income for the year ended December 31, 2010, amounted to $26.4 million, an increase of $2.3 million, or 9.4%, compared to 2009, generally reflecting the effects of re-pricing of liabilities in the current lower interest rate environment. Net interest margin increased 59 basis points to 3.50% for the twelve months ending December 31, 2010 compared to 2.91% for the comparable period in 2009. The increase in net interest margin during the 2010 period, compared to the same period of 2009, was due primarily to lower volume of interest-bearing liabilities and a lower cost of interest-bearing liabilities in the 2010 period offset partially by a lower volume of interest-earning assets and a lower yield on those assets.
Margin pressure has continued in 2010 due to the yield on assets continuing to decline. The loan portfolio has grown from previous year end and we are currently implementing strategies to continue the volume and diversification of the loan portfolio. Growth in commercial and consumer loan balances will support the margin as these types of loans are normally higher-yielding assets than adjustable rate mortgages.
We have continued with our strategies and offset decreased interest earned by decreasing the balances of our borrowed funds when applicable. Additionally, we continue to re-price deposits on a year to year comparison, which helped reduce overall deposit funding costs by 58 basis points throughout 2010. We also plan to continue to maintain cost of funds by banking our “commercial relationships” and retrieving deposits instead of borrowing at higher yields.

Table of Contents
Interest income on loans totaled $37.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, a decrease of $2.6 million, or 6.5%, from the comparable 2009 total. The decrease resulted primarily from a 30 basis point decrease in the average yield, from 6.02% in 2009, to 5.72% in 2010, coupled with a $10.5 million, or 1.6%, decrease in the average balance of loans outstanding year to year. Interest income on securities totaled $1.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, a $1.2 million, or 38.2%, decrease from the 2009 period. The decrease was due primarily to a $32.5 million, or 42.2%, decrease in the average balance outstanding, offset partially by a 28 basis point increase in the average yield, to 4.29% in 2010. Interest income on FHLB stock decreased by $74,000, or 5.4%, due primarily to a 25 basis point decrease in the average yield, to 4.37% in 2010. Interest income on other interest-bearing deposits decreased by $21,000, or 77.8%, due primarily to a $31.8 million, or 57.7% decrease in the average balance outstanding year to year coupled with a 2 basis point decrease in the average yield to 0.03% in 2010.
Interest expense on deposits totaled $10.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, a decrease of $4.8 million, or 31.1%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2009. This was due primarily to a 58 basis point decrease in the average cost of deposits, to 1.74% for 2010, coupled with a $52.9 million, or 8.0%, decrease in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits outstanding year to year. Interest expense on borrowings totaled $3.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, a decrease of $1.4 million, or 26.4%, from 2009. The decrease resulted primarily from a $24.3 million, or 16.4%, decrease in the average balance outstanding year to year coupled with a 43 basis point decrease in the average rate to 3.11% in 2010.
Approximately $196.6 million, or 48.6%, of our certificate deposit portfolio will mature during 2011. While this presents an opportunity to continue reducing our cost of funds (as these deposits are re-pricing into a slightly lower interest rate environment) we continue to experience competition for deposits in our market areas. This competition is limiting our ability to further reduce the marginal cost of deposits to a level reflective of the general rate environment.
Continued decreases in interest rates could compress our net interest margin due to continued re-pricing between our loan and deposit portfolios. At the same time, the loan portfolio has not grown enough to offset these tighter spreads. As noted earlier, we plan to continue to diversify the loan portfolio by encouraging growth in commercial and consumer loan balances. This strategy should slow net interest margin compression as these types of loans are normally higher-yielding assets than conventional mortgage loans and investment securities.
Provision for Losses on Loans.A provision for losses on loans is charged to earnings to bring the total allowance for loan losses to a level considered appropriate by management based on historical experience, the volume and type of lending conducted by the Bank, the status of past due principal and interest payments, general economic conditions, particularly as such conditions relate to the Bank’s market areas, and other factors related to the collectability of the Bank’s loan portfolio. Key drivers of the provision are declines in commercial real estate values on existing impaired loans and loan downgrades. The higher allocation in recent years primarily reflects the impact of distressed commercial real estate values and general economic conditions on specific reserves for impaired loans, while the elevated level of charge-offs in the past three years has resulted in higher loss factors and charge offs related to classified loans. The allowance allocated to the real estate and consumer loan categories is based upon Camco’s allowance methodology for homogeneous pools of loans. The fluctuations and changes in these allocations are consistent with the changes in loan quality, loss experience and economic factors in each of the loan categories.
Nonperforming loans (three monthly payments or more delinquent plus nonaccrual loans) totaled $33.8 million at December 31, 2010, a slight increase from $32.8 million from December 31, 2009. Additionally, net charge offs totaled $18.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to $22.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2009.
Based upon an analysis of these factors and the continued uncertain economic outlook, we added $18.5 million to the allowance for losses on loans for the twelve months ended December 31, 2010, compared to $21.8 million for the same period in 2009. We believe our loans are adequately reserved for at December 31, 2010. However, there can be no assurance that the loan loss allowance will be adequate to absorb losses on known classified assets or that the allowance will be adequate to cover losses in the future, understanding that all lending activity contains associated risks of loan losses. In addition, the mix and composition of both portfolio loans and nonperforming loans change from period to period. When the Company analyzes the allowance for loan losses various ratios are considered. As of December 31, 2010 the ratio of allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans increased from the prior year and our loan reserves also increased, representing 2.46% of total net loans versus 2.38% at December 31, 2009.

Other Income.Other income totaled $7.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, a decrease of $897,000, or 10.9%, compared to 2009. The decrease in other income was primarily attributable to a $1.3 million decrease in the value of our mortgage servicing rights net offset partially by a $611,000 increase in gains on sales of loans.
The decrease in mortgage servicing rights net was due to increased volatility in the market, which in turn increased the prepayment speeds utilized to value the portfolio. At December 31, 2010, we serviced $485.6 million of one-to-four family residential mortgage loans for others, primarily Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, which declined slightly from $497.0 million at December 31, 2009.
The increase in gain on sale of loans income for 2010 was due to increased spread on the gain achieved per loan offset partially be a decrease in loan sales of $19.8 million, or 18.2% compared to the prior year.
General, Administrative and Other Expense.General, administrative and other expense totaled $29.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, an increase of $1.2 million, or 4.3%, compared to 2009. The increase was due primarily to a $937,000 increase in loan expenses, a $765,000 increase in real estate owned and other expense and a $482,000 increase in employee compensation and benefits expense. These increases were offset partially by a decrease of FDIC insurance of $350,000, and decreases of $244,000 in occupancy and equipment and $265,000 in postage supplies and offices expense.
The increase in loan expenses relates to legal expenses incurred relating to classified commercial assets and the costs of various consulting, legal and property management services necessary to properly assist management in the workout and/or foreclosure process and safeguarding of assets. Management has spent significant time and resources in workout initiatives for problem loans in order to mitigate their adverse impact on the balance sheet and operating results.
The increase in real estate owned and other expenses is reflective of falling real estate values that negatively impacted our portfolio value and caused write down to fair market value on properties held. In addition, the increase in properties taken into real estate owned due to foreclosures in 2010 resulted in increased expenses. As noted earlier home values in Ohio have continued to decline from previous levels. These factors compounded by an uncertain economic outlook and high unemployment may result in continued expenses going into 2011.
Employee compensation and benefits increased primarily due to normal merit increases, an increase in incentives related to commercial originations coupled with increased salary continuation and defined benefit retirement plan costs.
The decrease in FDIC premiums resulted from the non recurrence of certain expenses including the reorganization of the Deposit Insurance Fund assessment of premiums by the FDIC which was coupled with increased premium rates which occurred in 2009.
In November 2010, the FDIC issued a final rule to implement provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act that provide for temporary unlimited coverage for non-interest bearing transaction accounts. The separate coverage for non-interest bearing transaction accounts became effective on December 31, 2010 and terminates on December 31, 2012.
The decrease in occupancy and equipment was due to decreased depreciation and repairs. The decreases in postage, supplies and office expenses relates to 2009 including additional incurred expenses related to the termination of a merger and additional re-advertising of our branches and brand and re-ordering of pre-printed materials and supplies to regular inventory levels.
Federal Income Taxes.The Federal income taxes totaled $518,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010, an increase of $6.8 million, compared to the benefit provision recorded in 2009. During the third quarter of 2010, management performed an analysis on its deferred tax assets and determined a full valuation allowance was necessary. The current year increase reflects a 100% valuation allowance on the Corporation’s deferred tax asset. As the Corporation executes plans to return to profitability, future earnings will benefit from operating loss carry-forwards.

A valuation allowance is recognized for a deferred tax asset if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more-likely-than-not that some portion or the entire deferred tax asset will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. In making such judgments, significant weight is given to evidence that can be objectively verified. As a result of the increased credit losses, the consequence to the Bank resulted in a carry-forward loss position as of December 31, 2010. A cumulative loss position is considered significant negative evidence in assessing the realization of a deferred tax asset, which is difficult to overcome. Reversal of the valuation allowance is possible in the future when the Corporation returns to profitability.
Comparison of Results of Operations for the Years Ended December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008
General.Camco’s net loss for the year ended December 31, 2009, totaled $11.2 million, a decrease in loss of $4.1 million, or 26.8%, from the $15.3 million of net loss reported in 2008. The decrease in the net loss was primarily due to additional expense in 2008 of $6.7 million in goodwill impairment charges, and additional impairment of $3.4 million in mortgage servicing rights, and $628,000 of expenses relating to the termination of the First Place Financial Corporation merger which was offset partially by a $7.0 million increase in the provision for loan losses and a $1.2 million increase in the federal taxes benefit.
Net Interest Income.Net interest income for the year ended December 31, 2009, amounted to $24.1 million, a decrease of $1.7 million, or 6.5%, compared to 2008, generally reflecting the effects of a $100.7 million decrease in the average balance of interest earning assets. Net interest margin increased to 2.91% for the twelve months ending December 31, 2009 compared to 2.77% for the comparable period in 2008. The increase in net interest margin during the 2009 period, compared to the same period of 2008, was due, nearly equally, to a lower volume of interest-earning assets and a lower yield on those assets offset partially by lower volume of interest-bearing liabilities and a lower cost of interest-bearing liabilities in the 2009 period.
Interest income on loans totaled $40.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, a decrease of $10.2 million, or 20.3%, from the comparable 2008 total. The decrease resulted primarily from a 56 basis point decrease in the average yield, from 6.58% in 2008, to 6.02% in 2009, coupled with a $99.5 million, or 13.0%, decrease in the average balance of loans outstanding year to year. Interest income on securities totaled $3.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, a $1.3 million, or 29.4%, decrease from the 2008 period. The decrease was due primarily to a $21.3 million, or 21.7%, decrease in the average balance outstanding, coupled with a 44 basis point decrease in the average yield, to 4.01% in 2009. Interest income on FHLB stock decreased by $155,000, or 10.1%, due primarily to a 61 basis point decrease in the average yield, to 4.62% in 2009 offset partially by a $543,000 increase in the average balance outstanding year to year. Interest income on other interest-bearing deposits decreased by $405,000, or 93.8%, due primarily to a 116 basis point decrease in the average yield, to 0.05% in 2009 offset partially by a $19.5 million, increase in the average balance outstanding year to year.
Interest expense on deposits totaled $15.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, a decrease of $7.4 million, or 32.5%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2008, due primarily to a 99 basis point decrease in the average cost of deposits, to 2.32% for 2009, coupled with a $24.3 million, or 3.5%, decrease in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits outstanding year to year. Interest expense on borrowings totaled $5.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, a decrease of $3.0 million, or 36.4%, from 2008. The decrease resulted primarily from a $46.2 million, or 23.8%, decrease in the average balance outstanding year to year coupled with a 70 basis point decrease in the average rate to 3.54% in 2009.
Provision for Losses on Loans.A provision for losses on loans is charged to earnings to bring the total allowance for loan losses to a level considered appropriate by management based on historical experience, the volume and type of lending conducted by the Bank, the status of past due principal and interest payments, general economic conditions, particularly as such conditions relate to the Bank’s market areas, and other factors related to the collectability of the Bank’s loan portfolio. Key drivers of the provision are declines in commercial real estate values on existing impaired loans and loan downgrades. The higher allocation in recent quarters primarily reflects the impact of distressed commercial real estate values and general economic conditions on specific reserves for impaired loans, while the elevated level of charge-offs in the fourth quarter and 2009 resulted in higher loss factors and charge offs related to classified loans. The allowance allocated to the real estate and consumer loan categories is based upon Camco’s allowance methodology for homogeneous pools of loans. The fluctuations and changes in these allocations are consistent with the changes in loan quality, loss experience and economic factors in each of the loan categories. Nonperforming loans (three monthly payments or more delinquent plus nonaccrual loans) totaled $32.8 million at December 31, 2009, a decrease from $53.5 million from December 31, 2008. Additionally, net charge offs totaled $21.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to $6.6 million, for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Based upon an analysis of these factors and the continued uncertain economic outlook, we added $21.8 million to the allowance for losses on loans for the twelve months ended December 31, 2009, compared to $14.8 million for the same period in 2008. We believe our loans are adequately reserved for at December 31, 2009. However, there can be no assurance that the loan loss allowance will be adequate to absorb losses on known classified assets or that the allowance will be adequate to cover losses in the future, understanding that all lending activity contains associated risks of loan losses. In addition, the mix and composition of both portfolio loans and nonperforming loans change from period to period. As of December 31, 2009 the ratio of allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans increased from the prior year and our loan reserves also increased, representing 2.38% of total net loans versus 2.04% at December 31, 2008.
Other Income.Other income totaled $8.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, an increase of $4.6 million, or 122.8%, compared to 2008. The increase in other income was primarily attributable to a $3.3 million increase in the value of our mortgage servicing rights coupled with a $907,000 increase in gains on sales of loans.
The increase in mortgage servicing rights was due to decreased prepayment speeds. Balances remained consistent year to year at $497.0 million and $497.4 million at December 31, 2009 and 2008 respectively. The servicing portfolios include one-to-four family residential mortgage loans for others, which are primarily sold to Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae.
The increase in gain on sale of loans income for 2009 was due to an increase in loan sales of $63.2 million year to year.
General, Administrative and Other Expense.General, administrative and other expense totaled $28.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, a decrease of $7.1 million, or 20.1%, compared to 2008. The decrease was due primarily to a $6.7 million of expense relating to impairment charges taken on goodwill coupled with $628,000 in merger and acquisition related charges in 2008. These decreases were offset partially by an increase of FDIC insurance of $2.1 million in 2009.
The increase in FDIC premiums resulted from increases in premium rates and deposit balances along with the decreased credits issued in 2008 relating to the reorganization of the Deposit Insurance Fund assessment of premiums by the FDIC.
Federal Income Taxes.The benefit for Federal income taxes totaled $6.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, an increase of $1.2 million, compared to the benefit provision recorded in 2008. The effective tax rates amounted to 36.0% and 25.0% for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The increase in federal income tax benefit was primarily attributable to tax credits related to our investment in affordable housing partnerships totaling $571,000 in 2009 compared to $198,000 in 2008. Additionally the tax-exempt character of earnings on bank-owned life insurance supplements the difference between the effective rate of tax benefits and the statutory corporate tax rate for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity is the Corporation’s ability to generate adequate cash flows to meet the demands of its customers and provide adequate flexibility for the Corporation to take advantage of market opportunities. Cash is used to fund loans, purchase investments, fund the maturity of liabilities, and at times to fund deposit outflows and operating activities. The Corporation’s principal sources of funds are deposits; amortization, prepayments and sales of loans; maturities, sales and principal receipts from securities; borrowings; and operations. Managing liquidity entails balancing the need for cash or the ability to borrow against the objectives of maximizing profitability and minimizing interest rate risk. The most liquid types of assets typically carry the lowest yields.
Camco is a single bank holding company and its primary ongoing source of liquidity is from dividends received from the Bank. Such dividends arise from the cash flow and earnings of the Bank. Ohio statutes impose certain limitations on the payment of dividends and other capital distributions by banks. Generally, absent approval of the Division, such statutes limit dividend and capital distributions to earnings of the current and two preceding years. Currently, the Consent Order prohibits the Bank from paying a dividend to Camco without prior approval of the FDIC and Division. Camco currently has $5.0 million outstanding trust preferred securities with a maturity date of 2037. If needed, Camco’s agreement regarding these securities provides for a deferment of interest payment for up to 20 consecutive quarters without default. Based on notification received from the FRB on April 30, 2009, Camco was required to exercise this provision to defer interest payments and has deferred a total of seven quarters as of December 31, 2010. See Note K to the Financial statements in Item 8 below. If the Corporation desires to raise funds in the future, it may consider engaging in further offerings of preferred securities, debentures or other borrowings as well as issuance of capital stock, but any such strategic decisions would require regulatory approval. Further, as a result of entering into the Written Agreement, and MOU with the FRB on March 4, 2009, we are prohibited from paying dividends to our stockholders without first obtaining the approval of the FRB. Our ability to pay dividends to stockholders is dependent on our net earnings. A continued decline in earnings increases in loan losses, or higher regulatory capital reserve requirements may jeopardize our ability to pay dividends at historical levels.
We monitor and assess liquidity needs daily in order to meet deposit withdrawals, loan commitments and expenses. Camco’s liquidity contingency funding plan identifies liquidity thresholds and red flags that may evidence liquidity concerns or future crises. The contingency plan details specific actions to be taken by management and the Board of Directors. It also identifies sources of emergency liquidity, both asset and liability-based, should we encounter a liquidity crisis. In conjunction with the Corporation’s asset/liability and interest rate risk management activities, we actively monitor liquidity risk and analyze various scenarios that could impact or impair Camco’s ability to access emergency funding during a liquidity crisis.
Liquid assets consist of cash and interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions, investments and mortgage-backed securities. Approximately $4.4 million, or 13.2%, of our investment portfolio is expected to mature or prepay during 2011. These maturities could provide a significant source of liquidity and due to not replacing or pricing public fund deposits and repurchase agreements our ability to use these funds freely will increase in 2011. State and local political subdivision deposits equaled $4.2 million at December 31, 2010, and $22.2 million at December 31, 2009. We may implement additional product strategies to lessen this restriction on our investment portfolio to increase our liquidity options.
Additional sources of liquidity include deposits, borrowings and principal and interest repayments on loans. While scheduled loan repayments and maturing investments are relatively predictable, deposit flows and early loan and security prepayments are more influenced by interest rates, general economic conditions, and competition and are difficult to predict.

Table of Contents
Diversified and reliable sources of wholesale funds are utilized to augment core deposit funding. Borrowings may be used on a long or short-term basis to compensate for reduction in other sources of funds or on a long term basis to support lending activities. The Bank utilizes certain loans and FHLB stock to provide collateral to support its borrowing needs. However, depositor or counterparty behavior could change in response to competition, economic or market situations or other unforeseen circumstances, which could have liquidity implications that may require different strategic or operational actions. One source of wholesale funding is brokered deposits. Consistent with its risk management policy and in response to the general tightening of credit and liquidity conditions in the financial markets at large, the Bank has utilized brokered deposits. At December 31, 2010, such deposits totaled approximately $12.3 million, exclusive of CDARS deposits.
Approximately $196.6 million of the Corporation’s certificate of deposit portfolio is scheduled to mature during 2011. Depositors continue a preference toward short-term certificates or other issuances less than 18 months. This places additional liquidity pressure on the Corporation as competition for deposits is very strong in Ohio, Kentucky and West Virginia. A material loss of these short-term deposits could force us to seek funding through contingency sources, which may negatively impact earnings.
FHLB advances are another funding source. In the past, Camco has depended heavily on borrowings to fund balance sheet growth. While significant strategic and tactical focus is currently being placed on deposit growth, borrowings and additional borrowing capacity at the FHLB are still vital sources of liquidity. We have approximately $92.9 million of additional borrowing capacity available as of December 31, 2010. However, our total borrowing capacity at the FHLB is dependent on the level of eligible collateral assets held by the Bank and the Bank’s credit rating with the FHLB. Our total borrowing capacity with the FHLB increased to $194.6 million at December 31, 2010, from $167.0 million at December 31, 2009. This capacity has increased due to the additional pledging of our commercial estate and home equity lines of credit. We have improved off-balance-sheet liquidity in response to higher collateral maintenance requirements.
We plan to continue to monitor our funding sources through brokered deposits and FHLB borrowings, but recognize that our current credit risk profile may restrict these sources. Our Funds Management Group will monitor the deposit rates in our markets to allow for competitive pricing in order to raise funds through deposits.

We anticipate that we will have sufficient funds available to meet our current loan commitments. Based upon historical deposit flow data, the Bank’s competitive pricing in its market and management’s experience, we believe that a significant portion of our “core” maturing certificates of deposit in 2011 will remain with the Bank, but recognize the significance of the risks discussed above.
Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term management process. In the event that we should require funds beyond our ability to generate them internally, additional funds are available through the use of FHLB advances, internet deposits, and through the sales of loans and/or securities.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We engage in off-balance sheet credit-related activities that could require us to make cash payments in the event that specified future events occur. The contractual amounts of these activities represent the maximum exposure to the Bank (as further described in financial statement footnote Note J — Commitments). However, certain off-balance sheet commitments are expected to expire or be only partially used; therefore, the total amount of commitments does not necessarily represent future cash requirements. These off-balance sheet activities are necessary to meet the financing needs of the Bank’s customers.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management of the Corporation is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) that is designed to produce reliable financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
The system of internal control over financial reporting as it relates to the financial statements is evaluated for effectiveness by management and tested for reliability through a program of internal audits. Actions are taken to correct potential deficiencies as they are identified. Any system of internal control, no matter how well designed, has inherent limitations, including the possibility that a control can be circumvented or overridden, and misstatements resulting from error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, because of changes in conditions, internal control effectiveness may vary over time. Accordingly, even an effective system of internal control will provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation.
The Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Accounting Officer, assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control—Integrated Framework. Based on the assessment, management believes that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2010.
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Camco Financial Corporation
Camco Financial Corporation
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statement of financial condition of Camco Financial Corporation as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2010. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Corporation’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Corporation 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 Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Camco Financial Corporation as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2010 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
As discussed in Note K, the Corporation’s bank subsidiary is not in compliance with revised minimum regulatory capital requirements under a formal regulatory agreement with the banking regulators. Failure to comply with the regulatory agreement may result in additional regulatory enforcement actions.

CAMCO FINANCIAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE A — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Camco Financial Corporation (“Camco” or the “Corporation”) is a bank holding company whose business activities are limited primarily to holding the common stock of Advantage Bank (“Advantage” or the “Bank”) and Camco Title Agency (“Camco Title”). Advantage conducts a general banking business within Ohio, West Virginia and northern Kentucky which consists of attracting deposits from the general public and applying those funds to the origination of loans for residential, consumer and nonresidential purposes. Advantage’s profitability is significantly dependent on net interest income, which is the difference between interest income generated from interest-earning assets (i.e. loans and investments) and the interest expense paid on interest-bearing liabilities (i.e. customer deposits and borrowed funds). Net interest income is affected by the relative amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the interest received or paid on these balances. The level of interest rates paid or received by Advantage can be significantly influenced by a number of factors, such as governmental monetary policy, that are outside of management’s control. Camco Title provides title insurance, title services, and loan closing services primarily for Advantage. In 2011, Camco will be liquidating its investment in Camco Title. The balance sheet and results of operations of Camco Title are not material to the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements.
The consolidated financial information presented herein has been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and general accounting practices within the financial services industry. In preparing financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from such estimates.
The following is a summary of the Corporation’s significant accounting policies which have been consistently applied in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Some items in the prior-year financial statements were reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation.
1.Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
2.Investment Securities
Investment securities are classified as held to maturity or available for sale upon acquisition. Securities classified as held to maturity are carried at cost only if the Corporation has the positive intent and ability to hold these securities to maturity. Securities designated as available for sale are carried at fair value with resulting unrealized gains or losses recorded to stockholders’ equity. Realized gains and losses on sales of securities are recognized on the trade date using the specific identification method. In estimating other-than-temporary impairment losses, management considers (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and (3) the intent and ability of the Corporation to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.
3.Federal Home Loan Bank Stock
The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) of Cincinnati. Members are required to own a certain amount of stock based on the level of borrowings and other factors, and may invest in additional amounts. FHLB stock is classified as restricted stock and is recorded at redemption value which approximates fair value. The Corporation periodically evaluates the stock for impairment based on ultimate recovery of par value.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
NOTE A — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES(continued).
4.Loans Receivable
Loans held in the portfolio are stated at the principal amount outstanding, adjusted for deferred loan origination fees and costs and the allowance for loan losses.
The accrual of interest on loans is discontinued at the time the loan is three monthly payments delinquent unless the credit is well secured and in the process of collection. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual or charged off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful. Uncollectible interest on loans that are contractually past due is charged off, or an allowance is established based on management’s periodic evaluation. The allowance is established by a charge to interest income equal to all interest previously accrued and not received, and income is not recognized until, in management’s judgment, the borrower’s ability to make periodic interest and principal payments has returned to normal, in which case the loan is returned to accrual status.
Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost (less principal payments received) or fair value (market value), calculated on an aggregate basis. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, loans held for sale were carried at cost.
5.Loan Origination and Commitment Fees
Currently, the Corporation accounts for loan origination fees and costs by deferring all loan origination fees received, net of certain direct origination costs, on a loan-by-loan basis and amortizing the interest income using the interest method, giving effect to actual loan prepayments. Fees received for loan commitments are deferred and amortized over the life of the related loan using the interest method.
6.Allowance for Loan Losses
It is the Corporation’s policy to provide valuation allowances for estimated losses on loans based upon past loss experience, current trends in the level of delinquent and problem loans, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral and current economic conditions in the Bank’s primary market areas. When the collection of a loan becomes doubtful, or otherwise troubled, the Corporation records a charge-off or an allowance equal to the difference between the fair value of the property securing the loan and the loan’s carrying value. Such provision is based on management’s estimate of the fair value of the underlying collateral, taking into consideration the current and currently anticipated future operating or sales conditions. As a result, such estimates are particularly susceptible to changes that could result in a material adjustment to results of operations in the near term. Recovery of the carrying value of such loans is dependent to a great extent on economic, operating, and other conditions that may be beyond the Corporation’s control.
The Corporation accounts for impaired loans by measurements based upon the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or, as an alternative, at the loan’s observable market price or fair value of the collateral.
A loan is defined as impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that a creditor will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. In applying the provisions, the Corporation considers its investment in owner-occupied one- to four-family residential loans, home equity lines of credit and consumer installment loans to be homogeneous and therefore excluded from separate identification for evaluation of impairment. With respect to the Corporation’s investment in multi-family, non-owner occupied residential, commercial and nonresidential loans, and its evaluation of any impairment thereon, such loans are generally collateral-dependent and as a result are carried as a practical expedient at the lower of cost or fair value. It is the Corporation’s policy to charge off unsecured credits that are more than ninety days delinquent.

7.Real Estate Acquired Through Foreclosure
Real estate acquired through foreclosure is carried at the lower of the loan’s unpaid principal balance (cost) or fair value less estimated selling expenses at the date of acquisition. Real estate loss provisions are recorded if the fair value of the property subsequently declines below the amount determined at the recording date. In determining the lower of cost or fair value at acquisition, costs relating to development and improvement of property are capitalized. Costs relating to holding real estate acquired through foreclosure, net of rental income, are charged against earnings as incurred.
8.Office Premises and Equipment
Office premises and equipment are carried at cost and include expenditures which extend the useful lives of existing assets. Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are expensed as incurred. For financial reporting, depreciation and amortization are provided on the straight-line method over the useful lives of the assets, estimated to be ten to fifty years for buildings and improvements and three to twenty-five years for furniture, fixtures and equipment. An accelerated depreciation method is used for tax reporting purposes.
9.Mortgage Servicing Rights
The Corporation accounts for mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) as separate assets. Mortgage servicing rights result from the origination of mortgage loans and the subsequent sale of those loans with servicing rights retained. At that time, an allocation of the cost of the loan is considered the mortgage servicing right asset.
The Corporation assesses the rights for impairment quarterly. Impairment is measured based on fair value. The mortgage servicing rights recorded by the Bank are segregated into pools for valuation purposes, using as pooling criteria the loan term and coupon rate.
To determine the fair value of the MSRs each reporting quarter, information is transmitted to a third party provider who assists in determining the fair value of MSRs, as described below.
Servicing assets are recognized as separate assets when loans are sold with servicing retained. A pooling methodology to the servicing valuation, in which loans with similar characteristics are “pooled” together, is applied for valuation purposes. Once pooled, each grouping of loans is evaluated on a discounted earnings basis to determine the present value of future earnings that a purchaser could expect to realize from the portfolio. Earnings are projected from a variety of sources including loan service fees, interest earned on float, net interest earned on escrow balances, miscellaneous income and costs to service the loans. The present value of future earnings is the estimated market value for the pool, calculated using consensus assumptions that a third party purchaser would utilize in evaluating a potential acquisition of the servicing. Events that may significantly affect the

estimates used are changes in interest rates and the related impact on mortgage loan prepayment speeds and the payment performance of the underlying loans. The interest rate for float is also calculated utilizing the current period fed funds rate. Mortgage loan prepayment speeds are calculated by taking into consideration Advantage Bank’s historical trends when estimating prepayment speeds and helped provide scenarios with each evaluation. Based on the assumptions, pre-tax projections are prepared for each pool of loans serviced. These earning figures approximate the cash flow that could be received from the servicing portfolio. Valuation results are presented quarterly to management. At that time, the information is reviewed and MSRs are marked to the lower of amortized cost or fair value for the current quarter.
The Corporation recorded capitalization related to mortgage servicing rights totaling approximately $1.0 million, $1.2 million and $604,000, for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
The Corporation recorded amortization related to mortgage servicing rights totaling approximately $1.6 million, $360,000 and $3.3 million, for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The carrying value of the Corporation’s mortgage servicing rights, which approximated their fair value, totaled approximately $3.8 million and $4.4 million at December 31, 2010 and 2009 respectively. Fair value was determined using discount rates ranging from 7.5% to 9.0% in 2010 and 2009, and prepayment speeds ranging from 6.0% to 33.6% in 2010 and from 6.0% to 31.4% in 2009.
At December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Bank was servicing mortgage loans of approximately $485.6 million and $497.0 million, respectively, which were sold to the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, Federal National Mortgage Association and other investors.
10.Goodwill
In prior years, the Corporation expanded through mergers and acquisitions accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Under the purchase method, the Corporation is required to allocate the cost of an acquired company to the assets acquired, including identified intangible assets, and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. The excess cost over the net assets acquired represents goodwill.
Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment when indicators of impairment exist, or at least annually. Potential goodwill impairment exists when the fair value of the reporting unit (as defined by US GAAP) is less than its carrying value. In 2008, the goodwill was determined to be impaired and was written off through the income statement.

11.Federal Income Taxes
Income taxes are provided based on the liability method of accounting, which includes the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the temporary differences between carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities, computed using enacted tax rates. In general, the Corporation records deferred tax assets when the event giving rise to the tax benefit has been recognized in the Consolidated Financial Statements.
A valuation allowance is recognized to reduce any deferred tax assets that, based upon available information, it is more-likely-than-not all, or any portion, of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. Assessing the need for, and amount of, a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets requires significant judgment and analysis of evidence regarding realization of the deferred tax assets. In most cases, the realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the Corporation generating a sufficient level of taxable income in future periods, which can be difficult to predict. In 2010, the Corporation recorded a full valuation allowance against the net deferral tax asset.
The calculation of tax liabilities is complex and requires the use of estimates and judgment since it involves the application of complex tax laws that are subject to different interpretations by the Corporation and the various tax authorities. These interpretations are subject to challenge by the tax authorities upon audit or to reinterpretation based on management’s ongoing assessment of facts and evolving case law.
From time-to-time and in the ordinary course of business, the Corporation is involved in inquiries and reviews by tax authorities that normally require management to provide supplemental information to support certain tax positions taken in the tax returns. Uncertain tax positions are initially recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. Management believes it has taken appropriate positions on its tax returns, although the ultimate outcome of any tax review cannot be predicted with certainty. Still, no assurance can be given that the final outcome of these matters will not be different than what is reflected in the current and historical financial statements.

15.New Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-20,Receivables (Topic 310), Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses. This ASU requires a greater level of disaggregated information about the credit quality of loan and leases and the allowance for loan and lease losses. This ASU also requires additional disclosures related to past due information, credit quality indicators and information related to loans modified in a troubled debt restructuring. This ASU is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending on or after December 15, 2010. We adopted this statement effective December 31, 2010.
In January 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-01,Deferral of the Effective Date of Disclosures about Troubled Debt Restructurings in Update No. 2010-20, which temporarily delays the effective date for public entities of the disclosures about troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) in ASU 2010-20,Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses. The deferral will allow the FASB to complete its deliberations on what constitutes a TDR, and to coordinate the effective dates of the new disclosures about TDRs for public entities in ASU 2010-20 and the guidance for determining what constitutes a TDR. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
16.Reclassifications
Some items in the prior year financial statements were reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

The Bank, in the ordinary course of business, has granted loans to certain of its directors, executive officers, and their related interests. Such loans are made on the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with unrelated persons and do not involve more than normal risk of collectability. The aggregate dollar amount of these loans totaled approximately $663,000 and $691,000 at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. During 2010, no related party loans were made and repayments totaled $28,000.
| NOTE—D — | ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES |
The allowance for loan losses is a reserve established through a provision which is charged to expense and represents management’s best estimate of probable losses that could be incurred within the existing portfolio of loans. The allowance is necessary to reserve for estimated loan losses and risks inherent in the loan portfolio. The Corporation’s allowance for possible loan loss methodology is based on historical loss experience by type of credit and internal risk grade, specific homogeneous risk pools and specific loss allocations, with adjustments for current events and conditions. The provision for possible loan losses reflects loan quality trends, including the levels of and trends related to non-accrual loans, past due loans, potential problem loans, criticized loans and net charge-offs or recoveries, among other factors. The amount of the provision reflects not only the necessary allowance for possible loan losses related to newly identified criticized loans, but it also reflects actions taken related to other loans including, among other things, any necessary increases or decreases in required allowances for specific loans or loan pools.

CAMCO FINANCIAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
The current level of the allowance is directionally consistent with classified assets, non-accrual and delinquency. While management utilizes its best judgment and information available, the ultimate adequacy of the allowance is dependent upon a variety of factors beyond the Corporation’s control, including, among other things, the performance of the Corporation’s loan portfolio, the economy, changes in interest rates and comments of the regulatory authorities toward loan classifications.
The Corporation’s allowance for possible loan losses consists of three elements: (i) specific valuation allowances on probable losses on specific loans; (ii) historical valuation allowances based on historical loan loss experience for similar loans with similar characteristics and trends, adjusted, as necessary, to reflect the impact of current conditions; and (iii) general valuation allowances based on general economic conditions and other qualitative risk factors both internal and external to the Corporation.
Loans identified as losses by management, internal loan review and/or bank examiners are charged-off. Furthermore, consumer loan accounts are charged-off automatically based on regulatory requirements.

Non-accrual and Past Due Loans. Loans are considered past due if the required principal and interest payments have not been received as of the date such payments were due. Loans are placed on non-accrual status when, the loan is three payments past due as well as when required by regulatory provisions. Loans may be placed on non-accrual status regardless of whether or not such loans are considered past due. When interest accrual is discontinued, all unpaid accrued interest is reversed. Interest income is recognized when the loan is returned to accrual status and all the principal and interest amounts contractually due is brought current for a minimum of six months or future payments are reasonably assured.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
Impaired loans. Loans are considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable the Corporation will be unable to collect all amounts due in accordance with the original contractual terms of the loan agreement, including scheduled principal and interest payments. Impairment is evaluated in total for smaller-balance loans of a similar nature and on an individual loan basis for other larger commercial credits. If a loan is impaired, a specific valuation allowance is allocated, if necessary, so that the loan is reported net, of collateral if payment is expected solely from the collateral or at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s existing rate or at the loan’s fair sale value. Interest payments on impaired loans are typically applied to principal unless collectability of the principal amount is reasonably assured in which case interest is recognized on an accrual basis. Impaired loans or portions of loans are charged off when deemed uncollectible.
We have included the following information with respect to impairment measurements relating to collateral-dependent loans for better understanding of our process and procedures relating to fair value of financial instruments:
| • | Based on policy, a loan is typically deemed impaired (nonperforming) once it has gone over three payments or 90 days delinquent. Our management of the troubled credit will vary as will the timing of valuations, loan loss provision and charge offs based on a multitude of factors such as, cash flow of the business/borrower, responsiveness of the borrower, communication with the commercial banker, property inspections, property deterioration, and delinquency. Typically, a nonperforming, non-homogeneous collateral dependent loan will be valued and adjusted (if needed) within a 90 day period after determination of impairment. If impaired, the collateral is then evaluated and an updated appraisal is most typically ordered. Upon receipt of an appraisal or other valuation, we complete an analysis to determine if the impaired loan requires a specific reserve or to be charged down to estimated net realizable value. The time frame may be as short as 30 days or as much as 180 days, when an appraisal is ordered. |
| • | Camco’s credit risk management process consistently monitors key performance metrics across both the performing and non performing assets to identify any further degradation of credit quality. Additionally, impaired credits are monitored in weekly loan committee asset quality discussions, monthly Asset Classification Committee meetings and quarterly loan loss reserve reviews. Strategy documents and exposure projections are completed on a monthly basis to ensure that the current status of the troubled asset is clearly understood and reported. |
| • | The Asset Classification Committee oversees the management of all impaired loans and any subsequent loss provision or chargeoff that is considered. When a loan is deemed impaired, the valuation is obtained to determine any existing loss that may be present as of the valuation date. Policy dictates that any differences from fair market value, less costs to sell, are to be recognized as loss during the current period (loan loss provision or chargeoff). Any deviations from this policy will be identified by amount and contributing reasons for the policy departure during our quarterly reporting process. |
| • | Camco’s policies dictate that an impaired loan subject to partial chargeoff will remain in a nonperforming status until it is brought current. Typically, this occurs when a loan is paid current and completes a period on on-time payments that demonstrate that the loan can perform. Camco monitors through various system reports any loan whose terms have been modified. These reports identify troubled debt restructures, modification, and renewals. |
| • | When circumstances do not allow for updated collateral or Camco determines that an appraisal is not needed, the underlying collateral’s fair market value is estimated in the following ways: |
| • | Camco personnel property inspections combined with original appraisal review | ||
| • | Auditor values | ||
| • | Broker price opinions | ||
| • | Various on-line fair market value estimations programs (i.e. Freddie Mac, Fannie Mae, etc). |

The Corporation categorizes loans and leases into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. The Corporation analyzes loans and leases individually by classifying the loans and leases as to credit risk. The loans monitored utilizing the risk categories listed below refer to commercial, commercial and industrial, construction, land, farmland and agriculture loans. All non-homogeneous loans are monitored through delinquency reporting. This analysis is performed on a quarterly basis. The Corporation uses the following definitions for risk ratings:
| • | Uncriticized Assets |
Uncriticized assets exhibit no material problems, credit deficiencies or payment problems. These assets generally are well protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or by the value of the asset or underlying collateral. Such credits are graded as follows: Excellent (1), Good (2), Satisfactory (3) or Watch (4).
| • | Special Mention Assets (Grade 5) |
Special Mention Assets have potential weaknesses or pose an unwarranted financial risk that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in the Bank’s credit position at some future date. Special Mention Assets are not adversely classified and do not expose the Bank to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification.
| • | Substandard Assets (Grade 6) |
An asset classified Substandard is protected inadequately by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor, or by the collateral pledged, if any. Assets so classified must have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. The possibility that liquidation would not be timely requires a substandard classification even if there is little likelihood of total loss.
65
Table of Contents
CAMCO FINANCIAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
Assets classified as Substandard may exhibit one or more of the following weaknesses:
| • | The primary source of repayment is gone or severely impaired and the Bank may have to rely upon a secondary source. | ||
| • | Loss does not seem likely but sufficient problems have arisen to cause the Bank to go to abnormal lengths to protect its position in order to maintain a high probability of repayment. | ||
| • | Obligors are unable to generate enough cash flow for debt reduction. | ||
| • | Collateral has deteriorated. | ||
| • | The collateral is not subject to adequate inspection and verification of value (if the collateral is expected to be the source of repayment). | ||
| • | Flaws in documentation leave the Bank in a subordinated or unsecured position if the collateral is needed for the repayment of the loan. | ||
| • | For assets secured by real estate, the appraisal does not conform to FDIC appraisal standards or the assumptions underlying the appraisal are demonstrably incorrect. |
| • | Doubtful Assets (Grade 7) |
An asset classified Doubtful has all the weaknesses inherent in one classified as Substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.
| • | Loss Assets (Grade 8) |
An asset, or portion thereof, classified loss is considered uncollectible and of such little value that its continuance on the books is not warranted. This classification does not mean that the asset has absolutely no recovery or salvage value; rather, it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off an essentially worthless asset (or portion thereof), even through partial recovery may occur in the future.

In July 2007, the Corporation formed a special purpose entity, Camco Statutory Trust I (Trust), for the sole purpose of issuing $5.0 million trust preferred securities. Additionally, Camco issued subordinated debentures to the Trust in exchange for the proceeds of the offering of the trust preferred securities. The subordinated debentures represent the sole asset of the Trust. The subordinated debentures are due on September 15, 2037 (Due Date). The subordinated debentures carry a fixed rate of interest of 6.648% until September 15, 2012, at which point the interest rate becomes variable at 133 basis points over the three month LIBOR rate. The Corporation may redeem the subordinated debentures any time prior to the Due Date as follows:
| Call Date | Terms | |||
| 9/15/2011 | Callable at 100.785% of par | |||
| 9/15/2012 | Callable until Due Date at par | |||
Camco and Camco Statutory Trust I are permitted to defer interest and dividend payments, respectively, for up to five consecutive years without resulting in a default. These dividends have been deferred since April, 2009.
Obligations for securities sold under agreements to repurchase were $6.5 million and $6.9 million for December 31, 2010 and 2009 respectively. They were collateralized at December 31, 2010 and 2009, by investment securities with an amortized cost including accrued interest of approximately $8.7 million and $6.4 million and a market value of approximately $9.1 million and $6.7 million, respectively. The maximum balance of repurchase agreements outstanding at any month-end during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, was $9.1 million and $15.2 million, respectively, and the average month-end balance outstanding for 2010 and 2009 was approximately $6.8 million and $8.9 million, respectively.

| NOTE I — | FEDERAL INCOME TAXES(continued). |
At December 31, 2010, the Corporation has a $13 million net operating loss carry forward available to reduce future income taxes through 2029. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the reversal of deferred tax assets and liabilities (including the impact of carryforward periods), projected future taxable income and tax-planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon the Corporation’s cumulative three year loss position and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes it is likely that the Corporation will be able to realize the benefits of these deductible differences. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable, however, could change in the near term if estimates of future taxable income during the carryforward period change.
For years prior to 1996, the Bank was allowed a special bad debt deduction generally limited to 8% of otherwise taxable income, subject to certain limitations based on aggregate loans and savings account balances at the end of the year. If the amounts that qualified as deductions for federal income taxes are later used for purposes other than for bad debt losses, including distributions in liquidation, such distributions will be subject to federal income taxes at the then current corporate income tax rate. The percentage of earnings bad debt deduction had accumulated to approximately $12.1 million as of December 31, 2010. The amount of the unrecognized deferred tax liability relating to the cumulative bad debt deduction was approximately $4.1 million at December 31, 2010.
| NOTE J — | COMMITMENTS |
The Bank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers, including commitments to extend credit. Such commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest-rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated statement of financial condition. The contract or notional amounts of the commitments reflect the extent of the Bank’s involvement in such financial instruments.
The Bank’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual notional amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as those utilized for on-balance-sheet instruments.
The following table summarizes the Bank’s outstanding commitments to originate adjustable and fixed-rate loans at December 31:

NOTE J — COMMITMENTS(continued).
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Bank evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if it is deemed necessary by the Bank upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral on loans may vary but the preponderance of loans granted generally include a mortgage interest in real estate as security.
The Corporation has entered into lease agreements for office premises and equipment under operating leases which expire at various dates through the year ended December 31, 2017. The following table summarizes minimum payments due under lease agreements by year:

NOTE K — REGULATORY MATTERS AND REGULATORY CAPITAL
Camco and Advantage are subject to the regulatory capital requirements of the Federal Reserve Board (the “FRB”) and Advantage is subject to the requirements of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”). 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 Corporation’s consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Corporation and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Corporation and Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.
The FRB and FDIC have adopted risk-based capital ratio guidelines to which the Corporation is subject. The guidelines establish a systematic analytical framework that makes regulatory capital requirements more sensitive to differences in risk profiles among banking organizations. Risk-based capital ratios are determined by allocating assets and specified off-balance sheet commitments to four risk-weighting categories, with higher levels of capital being required for the categories perceived as representing greater risk.

These guidelines divide the capital into two tiers. The first tier (“Tier I”) includes common equity, certain non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock (excluding auction rate issues) and minority interests in equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries, less goodwill and certain other intangible assets (except mortgage servicing rights and purchased credit card relationships, subject to certain limitations). Supplementary (“Tier II”) capital includes, among other items, cumulative perpetual and long-term limited-life preferred stock, mandatory convertible securities, certain hybrid capital instruments, term subordinated debt and the allowance for loan losses, subject to certain limitations, less required deductions. Banks and bank holding companies are required to maintain a total risk-based capital ratio of 8%, of which 4% must be Tier I capital. The regulatory agencies may, however, set higher capital requirements when particular circumstances warrant. Banks experiencing or anticipating significant growth are expected to maintain capital ratios, including tangible capital positions, well above the minimum levels.

NOTE K — REGULATORY MATTERS AND REGULATORY CAPITAL(continued).
Federal law prohibits a financial institution from making a capital distribution to anyone or paying management fees to any person having control of the institution if, after such distribution or payment, the institution would be undercapitalized. Additionally, the payment of dividends by Advantage Bank to its parent and by Camco Financial Corporation to shareholders is subject to restriction by regulatory agencies. These restrictions normally limit dividends from the Bank to the sum of the Bank’s current and prior two years’ earnings, as defined by the agencies.
On March 4, 2009, Camco entered into a MOU with the FRB. The MOU prohibits Camco from engaging in certain activities while the MOU is in effect, including, without the prior written approval of the FRB, (1) the declaration or payment of dividends to stockholders or (2) the repurchase of Camco’s stock.
On April 30, 2009, Camco was notified by the FRB that it had conducted a “surveillance review” as of December 31, 2008. Based on that review, the FRB notified Camco that it must (i) eliminate shareholder dividends and (ii) defer interest payments on its 30-year junior subordinated deferrable interest notes that were issued to its wholly-owned subsidiary, Camco Statutory Trust I, in its trust preferred financing that was completed in July 2007. These prohibitions were memorialized in a written agreement with the FRB on August 5, 2009. Camco and Camco Statutory Trust I are permitted to defer interest and dividend payments, respectively, for up to five consecutive years without resulting in a default. Camco may not resume these dividend or interest payments until it receives approval from the FRB.
As a result of the surveillance review, Camco entered into a Written Agreement (the “Camco Agreement”) with the FRB on August 5, 2009. The Camco Agreement memorializes the requirements imposed on April 30, 2009 and requires Camco to obtain FRB approval prior to: (i) declaring or paying any dividends; (ii) receiving dividends or any other form of payment representing a reduction in capital from Advantage; (iii) making any distributions of interest, principal or other sums on subordinated debentures or trust preferred securities; (iv) incurring, increasing or guaranteeing any debt; or (v) repurchasing any Camco stock.
Advantage entered into a consent agreement with the FDIC and the Division that provided for the issuance of an order by the FDIC and the Division, which order was executed by the FDIC and Division on July 31, 2009 (the “Consent Order”). The Consent Order requires Advantage to, among other things, (i) increase its Tier 1 risk based capital to 8%; and (ii) seek regulatory approval prior to declaring or paying any cash dividend. As a result of the Consent Order, Advantage is disqualified as a public depository under Ohio law and will incur higher premiums for FDIC insurance of its accounts. Currently, Advantage is not in compliance with the Tier 1 capital requirement of the Consent Order.
A material failure to comply with the provisions of either agreement could result in additional enforcement actions by the FDIC, the Ohio Division or the Federal Reserve.

NOTE K — REGULATORY MATTERS AND REGULATORY CAPITAL(continued).
The Corporation’s Tier 1 capital did not meet the requirements set forth in the Bank Agreement or Camco Agreement. As a result the Corporation will need to increase capital levels to meet the standards set forth by the FDIC, Division and FRB. The Corporation has engaged an investment banking firm and is in the process of developing a capital plan that may include balance sheet reduction, the sale of branches, issuing common stock, preferred stock, debt or some combination of those issuances, or other financing alternatives that will be treated as capital. Although, the Corporation anticipates raising additional capital, the Board of Directors has not yet determined the type, timing, amount, or terms of possible securities to be issued in the offering, and there are no assurances that an offering will be completed or that the Corporation will succeed in this endeavor. In addition, a transaction, which would likely involve equity financing would result in substantial dilution to current stockholders and could adversely affect the price of the Corporation’s common stock.

| NOTE L — | FAIR VALUE |
As a financial services Corporation, the carrying value of certain financial assets and liabilities is impacted by the application of fair value measurements, either directly or indirectly. In certain cases, an asset or liability is measured and reported at fair value on a recurring basis, such as available-for-sale investment securities. In other cases, management must rely on estimates or judgments to determine if an asset or liability not measured at fair value warrants an impairment write-down or whether a valuation reserve should be established. Given the inherent volatility, the use of fair value measurements may have a significant impact on the carrying value of assets or liabilities, or result in material changes to the financial statements, from period to period.
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Corporation in estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.
Cash and Cash Equivalents: The carrying amount reported in the consolidated statements of financial condition for cash and cash equivalents is deemed to approximate fair value.
Investment Securities: Fair values for investment securities are based on quoted market prices and dealer quotes.
Loans Held for Sale: Fair value for loans held for sale is the contracted sales price of loans committed for delivery, which is determined on the date of sale commitment.
Loans Receivable: The loan portfolio has been segregated into categories with similar characteristics, such as one- to four-family residential real estate, multi-family residential real estate, installment and other. These loan categories were further delineated into fixed-rate and adjustable-rate loans. The fair values for the resultant loan categories were computed via discounted cash flow analysis, using current interest rates offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality.
Federal Home Loan Bank Stock: The carrying amount presented in the consolidated statements of financial condition is deemed to approximate fair value.
Accrued Interest Receivable and Payable: The carrying value for accrued interest approximates fair value.
Deposits: The fair values of deposits with no stated maturity, such as money market demand deposits, savings and NOW accounts have been analyzed by management and assigned estimated maturities and cash flows which are then discounted to derive a value. The fair value of fixed-rate certificates of deposit is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.
Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank: The fair value of these advances is estimated using the rates currently offered for similar advances of similar remaining maturities or, when available, quoted market prices.

CAMCO FINANCIAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
| NOTE L— | FAIR VALUE (continued). |
Repurchase Agreements: The fair value of repurchase agreements is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows using rates currently offered for similar maturities.
Subordinated Debentures: The fair value of subordinated debentures is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows using rates currently offered for smaller maturities.
Advances by Borrowers for Taxes and Insurance: The carrying amount of advances by borrowers for taxes and insurance is deemed to approximate fair value.
Commitments to Extend Credit: For fixed-rate and adjustable-rate loan commitments, the fair value estimate considers the difference between current levels of interest rates and committed rates. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, the fair value of loan commitments was not material.
Based on the foregoing methods and assumptions, the carrying value and fair value of the Corporation’s financial instruments are as follows:

Listed below are three levels of inputs that Camco uses to measure fair value:
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.
Level 2: Level 1 inputs for assets or liabilities that are not actively traded. Also consists of an observable market price for a similar asset or liability. This includes the use of “matrix pricing” used to value debt securities absent the exclusive use of quoted prices.
Level 3: Consists of unobservable inputs that are used to measure fair value when observable market inputs are not available. This could include the use of internally developed models, financial forecasting, etc.
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or transfer a liability between market participants at the balance sheet date. When possible, the Corporation looks to active and observable markets to price identical assets or liabilities. When identical assets and liabilities are not traded in active markets, the Corporation looks to observable market data for similar assets and liabilities. However, certain assets and liabilities are not traded in observable markets and Camco must use other valuation methods to develop a fair value. The fair value of impaired loans is based on the fair value of the underlying collateral, which is estimated through third party appraisals or internal estimates of collateral values.
The following table presents financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis for balances at December 31, 2010 and 2009:

Impaired loans are measured and reported at fair value when management believes collection of contractual interest and principal payments is doubtful. Management’s determination of the fair value for these loans represents the estimated net proceeds to be received from the sale of the collateral based on observable market prices and market value provided by independent, licensed or certified appraisers.
Fair value for real estate acquired through foreclosure is generally determined by obtaining recent appraisals on the properties. Other types of valuing include broker price opinions and valuations pertaining to the current and anticipated deterioration in the regional economy and real estate market, as evidenced by, among other things, a net out migration of the local population, unemployment rates, increasing vacancy rates, borrower delinquencies, declining property values and rental prices, differences between foreclosure appraisals and real estate owned sales prices, and an increase in concessions and other forms of discounting or other items approved by our asset classification committee. The fair value under such appraisals is determined by using one of the following valuation techniques: income, cost or comparable sales. The fair value is then reduced by management’s estimate for the direct costs expected to be incurred in order to sell the property. Holding costs or maintenance expenses are recorded as period costs when occurred and are not included in the fair value estimate.

The Credit Administration unit received substantial information related to several larger commercial credits that resulted in partial and full writedowns based on impairment and collateral dependency that was not received during prior quarters of 2009. Additionally consistent with accounting standards the company was required to consider events subsequent to December 31, 2009 to determine the end of year loss position. Specifically, during the fourth quarter and early 2010 we received information on three significant commercial relationships that required a total writedown or full specific loss reserve totaling $10.1 million. (included is a previously reported $2.6 million fraudulent loan). Additionally, we received specific fourth quarter information relating to our identified concentration in non owner occupied investors. A total of $1.8 million was required to be written off on four investors during the fourth quarter of 2009. |

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Corporation has carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2010.

There were no changes in Camco’s internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the internal control over financial reporting.
