The above table represents 11 investment securities where the current value is less than the related amortized cost.
Included in the first table above are pooled trust preferred securities. Trust preferred securities are very long-term (usually 30-year maturity) instruments with characteristics of both debt and equity, mainly issued by banks or their holding companies. All of the Company’s investments in trust preferred securities are of pooled issues, each consisting of 30 or more companies with geographic and size diversification. As of June 30, 2009, the Company had investments in five pooled trust preferred securities with an aggregate balance of $5.7 million. Although permitted by the debt instruments, as of June 30, 2009, none of the pooled trust preferred securities had begun to defer payments. However, as a result of the overall deterioration of the credit markets and the number of underlying issuers deferring interest payments, as well as issuers defaulting, the rating agencies have downgraded three of the Company’s investments in pooled trust preferred securities aggregating $2.1 million. Management believes that trust-preferred valuations have been negatively affected by an inactive market and by concerns that the underlying banks and other companies may have significant exposure to losses from sub-prime mortgages, defaulted collateralized debt obligations or other concerns.
The Company reviews investment debt securities on an ongoing basis for the presence of other than temporary impairment (“OTTI”) with formal reviews performed quarterly. Effective March 31, 2009, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Staff Position (“FSP”) FAS 115-2, “Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments”, which provides for the bifurcation of OTTI into two categories: (a) the amount of the total OTTI related to a decrease in cash flows expected to be collected from the debt security (the credit loss) which is recognized in earnings and (b) the amount of total OTTI related to all other factors, which is recognized, net of income taxes, as a component of other comprehensive income (“OCI”). As a result of adopting FSP FAS 115-2, the Company recorded, during the quarter ended March 31, 2009, a $220,000 impairment not related to credit losses on its investment in a pooled trust preferred security, through other comprehensive income rather than through earnings and a $490,000 credit-related impairment on the same pooled trust preferred security, through earnings. No OTTI was determined to exist with respect to any of the Company’s investment debt securities during the third quarter of fiscal 2009.

Also, for the three and nine months ending June 30, 2009, the Company recorded an OTTI charge of $0 and $556,000, respectively, on its investment in a mutual fund.
At June 30, 2009, investment securities in a gross unrealized loss position for twelve months or longer consisted of four securities having an aggregate depreciation of 31.5% from the Company’s amortized cost basis. Management believes the declines in market value are the result of the current volatility in interest rates and turmoil in the capital and debt markets. Fair values for certain pooled trust preferred securities were determined utilizing discounted cash flow models due to the absence of a current market to provide reliable market quotes for the instruments. The Company’s analysis for each pooled trust preferred securities performed at the CUSIP level shows that the credit quality of the individual bonds ranges from good to deteriorating. Credit risk does exist and the default of an individual issuer in a particular pool could affect the ultimate collectability of contractual amounts. The Company does not have the intent to sell these securities and it is more likely than not that it will not have to sell the securities before recovery of their cost bases. However, the Company will continue to review its investment portfolio to determine whether any particular impairment is other than temporary. Management does not believe that any individual unrealized loss as of June 30, 2009 represents an other-than-temporary impairment.
Proceeds from the sales of available-for-sale securities for the three- and nine- months ending June 30, 2009 totaled $250,000 and $4.4 million, respectively. Losses on sales of available-for-sale investment securities for the three- and nine- months ending June 30, 2009 totaled $0 and $86,000, respectively.

The above table represents 31 mortgage-related securities where the current value is less than the related amortized cost.
At June 30, 2009, mortgage-related securities in a gross unrealized loss position for twelve months or longer consisted of 17 securities that at such date had an aggregate depreciation of 8.6% from the Company's amortized cost basis. Management does not believe any individual unrealized loss as of June 30, 2009 represents an other-than-temporary impairment. The unrealized losses reported for mortgage-related securities relate primarily to securities issued by the Federal National Mortgage Association, the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation and private institutions. Management believes that the substantial majority of the unrealized losses associated with mortgage-related securities are attributable to changes in interest rates and conditions in the financial and credit markets not due to the deterioration of the creditworthiness of the issuer. The Company does not have the intent to sell these securities and it is more likely than not that it will not have to sell the securities before recovery of their cost bases. However, the Company will continue to review its investment portfolio to determine whether any particular impairment is other than temporary. Management does not believe that any individual unrealized loss as of June 30, 2009 represents an other-than-temporary impairment.
The Company reviews mortgage-related securities on an ongoing basis for the presence of OTTI with formal reviews performed quarterly. Effective March 31, 2009, the Company adopted FSP FAS 115-2, “Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments”, which provides for the bifurcation of OTTI into two categories: (a) the amount of the total OTTI related to a decrease in cash flows expected to be collected from the debt security (the credit loss) which is recognized in earnings and (b) the amount of total OTTI related to all other factors, which is recognized, net of income taxes, as a component of OCI. As a result of adopting FSP FAS 115-2, the Company recorded, during the quarter ended March 31, 2009 impairments aggregating $25,000 not related to credit losses on two of its private label collateralized mortgage obligations, through other comprehensive income rather than through earnings and credit-related impairments aggregating $126,000 on the same two private label collateralized mortgage obligations as well as the Company’s investment in another private label collateralized mortgage obligation, through earnings. No OTTI was determined to exist with respect to any of the Company’s mortgage-related securities during the third quarter of fiscal 2009.

4. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT
In the first quarter of 2009, the Company adopted the provisions of FAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, for financial assets and financial liabilities. FAS No. 157 provides enhanced guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. The standard applies whenever other standards require or permit assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value. The standard does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances. The FASB issued Staff Position No. 157-1, “Application of FASB Statement No. 157 to FASB Statement No. 13 and Other Accounting Pronouncements That Address Fair Value Measurements for Purposes of Lease Classification or Measurement Under Statement 13”, which removed leasing transactions accounted for under FAS No. 13 and related guidance from the scope of FAS No. 157. On April 9, 2009, the FASB issued FSP No. 157-4, “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly”. The Company elected to early adopt this FSP and the results have been applied on the financial statements and disclosures herein, without a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. FSP 157-4 provides guidance for determining fair value if there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for an asset or liability in relation to normal market activity. In that circumstance, transactions or quoted prices may not be determinative of fair value. Significant adjustments may be necessary to quoted prices or alternative valuation techniques may be required in order to determine the fair value of the asset or liability under current market conditions.
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: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3: Significant unobservable that inputs reflect a reporting entity’s own assumptions about the parameters that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.
Most of the securities classified as available for sale are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs. For these securities, the Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quoted market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the bond’s terms and conditions, among other things. Impaired loans are reported at fair value utilizing level 2 inputs. For these loans, a review of the collateral is conducted and an appropriate allowance for loan loss is allocated to the loan.
Securities reported at fair value utilizing Level 1 inputs are limited to actively traded equity securities whose market price is readily available from the New York Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ stock market.
Securities reported at fair value utilizing Level 3 inputs consist predominantly of corporate debt securities for which there is no active market. Fair values for these securities are determined utilizing discounted cash flow models which incorporate various assumptions including average historical spreads, credit ratings, and liquidity of the underlying securities.

The following table presents the changes in the Level III fair-value category for the nine months ended June 30, 2009. The Company classifies financial instruments in Level III of the fair-value hierarchy when there is reliance on at least one significant unobservable input to the valuation model. In addition to these unobservable inputs, the valuation models for Level III financial instruments typically also rely on a number of inputs that are readily observable either directly or indirectly.

Basic net income (loss) per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, while diluted net income (loss) per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and common share equivalents that would arise from the exercise of dilutive securities. All dilutive shares consist of options the exercise price of which is lower than the market price of the common stock covered thereby at the date presented. At June 30, 2009 and 2008, anti-dilutive shares consisted of options covering 54,160 and 43,079 shares, respectively.

8. REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS
The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum regulatory capital requirements can result in certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.
- 14 - -
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth below) of tangible and core capital (as defined in the regulations) to adjusted assets (as defined), and of Tier I and total capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). Management believes, as of June 30, 2009, that the Bank met all regulatory capital adequacy requirements to which it was subject, including individualized capital requirements discussed below.
The Bank’s actual capital amounts and ratios are presented in the following table.

The supervisory agreement requires the Bank, among other things, to maintain minimum core capital and total risk-based capital ratios of 7.5% and 12.5%, respectively. At June 30, 2009, the Bank was in compliance with such requirement. The Bank has been deemed to be "well-capitalized" for purposes of the prompt corrective action regulations by the OTS. However, due to the supervisory agreement, it is still deemed in “troubled condition.”
9. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS No. 141(R)”), which establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in an acquiree, including the recognition and measurement of goodwill acquired in a business combination. SFAS No. 141(R) is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited. The Company is evaluating the impact of this pronouncement but does not expect that the guidance will have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
In September 2006, the FASB issued FAS No. 158, “Employers' Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Post Retirement Plans”, an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106 and 132(R). This Statement requires that employers measure plan assets and obligations as of the balance sheet date. This requirement is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008. The other provisions of the Statement were effective for public companies as of the end of the fiscal year ending after December 15, 2006. The Company has determined that the guidance provided by SFAS No. 158 will not have an impact on its stockholders' equity or on the Company's financial position or results of operations.
- 15 - -
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements — an amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS No. 160”). SFAS No. 160 amends ARB No. 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. It clarifies that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary, which is sometimes referred to as minority interest, is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements. Among other requirements, this statement requires consolidated net income to be reported at amounts that include the amounts attributable to both the parent and the noncontrolling interest. It also requires disclosure, on the face of the consolidated income statement, of the amounts of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest. SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.
In April 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) No. 142-3, “Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets” (“FSP 142-3”). FSP 142-3 amends the factors that should be considered in developing assumptions about renewal or extension used in estimating the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” This standard is intended to improve the consistency between the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142 and the period of expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of the asset under SFAS No. 141R and other GAAP. FSP 142-3 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The measurement provisions of this standard will apply only to intangible assets of the Company acquired after the effective date. The Company does not expect the adoption of FSP 142-3 to have a material effect on its results of operations or financial position.
In February 2007, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 158-1, “Conforming Amendments to the Illustrations in FASB Statements No. 87, No. 88, and No. 106 and to the Related Staff Implementation Guides. “This FSP provides conforming amendments to the illustrations in FAS Statements No. 87, 88, and 106 and to related staff implementation guides as a result of the issuance of FAS Statement No. 158. The conforming amendments made by this FSP are effective as of the effective dates of Statement No. 158. The unaffected guidance that this FSP codifies into Statements No. 87, 88, and 106 does not contain new requirements and therefore does not require a separate effective date or transition method. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the FSP will have on the Company’s results of operations.
In February 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 140-3, “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets and Repurchase Financing Transactions.” This FSP concludes that a transferor and transferee should not separately account for a transfer of a financial asset and a related repurchase financing unless (a) the two transactions have a valid and distinct business or economic purpose for being entered into separately and (b) the repurchase financing does not result in the initial transferor regaining control over the financial asset. The FSP is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning on or after November 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the FSP will have on the Company’s results of operations.
In June 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. EITF 03-6-1, “Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities,” to clarify that instruments granted in share-based payment transactions can be participating securities prior to the requisite service having been rendered. A basic principle of the FSP is that unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities and are to be included in the computation of EPS pursuant to the two-class method. The provisions of this FSP are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those years. All prior-period EPS data presented (including interim financial statements, summaries of earnings, and selected financial data) are required to be adjusted retrospectively to conform with the provisions of the FSP. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the FSP will have on the Company’s results of operations.
- 16 - -
In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 141(R)-1, “Accounting for Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed in a Business Combination That Arise from Contingencies.” This FSP requires companies acquiring contingent assets or assuming contingent liabilities in business combination to either (a) if the assets’ or liabilities’ fair value can be determined, recognize them at fair value, at the acquisition date, or (b) if the assets’ or liabilities’ fair value cannot be determined, but (i) it is probable that an asset existed or that a liability had been incurred at the acquisition date and (ii) the amount of the asset or liability can be reasonably estimated, recognize them at their estimated amount, at the acquisition date. If the fair value of these contingencies cannot be determined and they are not probable or cannot be reasonably estimated, then companies should not recognize these contingencies as of the acquisition date and instead should account for them in subsequent periods by following other applicable GAAP. This FSP also eliminates the FAS 141R requirement of disclosing in the footnotes to the financial statements the range of expected outcomes for a recognized contingency. This FSP shall be effective for assets or liabilities arising from contingencies in business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The adoption of this FSP is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position
In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 157-4, “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly.” This FSP relates to determining fair values when there is no active market or where the price inputs being used represent distressed sales. It reaffirms the need to use judgment to ascertain if a formerly active market has become inactive and in determining fair values when markets have become inactive. FSP No. FAS 157-4 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009, but entities may early adopt this FSP for the interim and annual periods ending after March 15, 2009. The Company adopted the provisions of FSP 157-4 during the second quarter of fiscal 2009 and the results have been applied in the financial statements and disclosures included herein.
In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, “Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments”, which relates to fair value disclosures for any financial instruments that are not currently reflected on the balance sheet of companies at fair value. Prior to issuing this FSP, fair values for these assets and liabilities were only disclosed once a year. The FSP now requires these disclosures on a quarterly basis, providing qualitative and quantitative information about fair value estimates for all those financial instruments not measured on the balance sheet at fair value. FSP No. FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009, but entities may early adopt this FSP for the interim and annual periods ending after March 15, 2009. The Company adopted the provisions of FSP No. FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 during the third quarter of fiscal 2009 and the results have been applied in the financial statements and disclosures included herein (see Note 10).
In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2, “Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments”, which provides additional guidance designed to create greater clarity and consistency in accounting for and presenting impairment losses on securities. FSP SFAS No. 115-2 and SFAS No. 124-2 amends existing guidance for determining whether an impairment is other than temporary to debt securities and replaces the existing requirement that the entity’s management assert it has both the intent and ability to hold an impaired security until recovery with a requirement that management assert: (a) it does not have the intent to sell the security; and (b) it is more likely than not it will not have to sell the security before recovery of its cost basis. Under FSP SFAS No. 115-2 and SFAS No. 124-2, declines in the fair value of held-to-maturity and available-for-sale securities below their cost that are deemed to be other than temporary are reflected in earnings as realized losses to the extent the impairment is related to credit losses. The amount of impairment related to other factors is recognized in other comprehensive income. FSP No. FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2 are effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009, but entities may early adopt this FSP for the interim and annual periods ending after March 15, 2009. The Company has early adopted FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2 during the second quarter of fiscal 2009 (see Notes 2 & 3).
- 17 - -
In January 2009, the FASB issued final FSP No. EITF 99-20-1, “Amendments to the Impairment Guidance of EITF Issue No. 99-20.” The FSP amends the impairment guidance in EITF Issue No. 99-20, “Recognition of Interest Income and Impairment on Purchased Beneficial Interests and Beneficial Interests That Continue to Be Held by a Transferor in Securitized Financial Assets,” to achieve more consistent determination of whether an other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI) has occurred. The FSP retains and emphasizes the OTTI guidance and required disclosures in Statement 115, FSP FAS 115-1 and FAS 124-1, The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments, SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5M, “Other Than Temporary Impairment of Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, and Other Related Literature.” The FSP is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2008, and shall be applied prospectively. Retrospective application to a prior interim or annual reporting period is not permitted. Consistent with paragraph 15 of FSP FAS 115-1 and FAS 124-1, any other-than temporary impairment resulting from the application of Statement 115 or Issue 99-20 shall be recognized in earnings equal to the entire difference between the investment’s cost and its fair value at the balance sheet date of the reporting period for which the assessment is made (for example, December 31, 2008, for a calendar year-end entity). The adoption of the requirements of FSB No. EITF 99-20-1 by the Company did not have a material impact on its financial condition or results of operations.
In February 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position No.157-2, “Partial Deferral of the Effective Date of Statement 15”, which deferred the effective date of FAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”, for all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.
In May 2009, the FASB issued FAS No. 165, “Subsequent Events”, which requires companies to evaluate events and transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but before the date the financial statements are issued, or available to be issued in the case of non-public entities. FAS No. 165 requires entities to recognize in the financial statements the effect of all events or transactions that provide additional evidence of conditions that existed at the balance sheet date, including the estimates inherent in the financial preparation process. Entities shall not recognize the impact of events or transactions that provide evidence about conditions that did not exist at the balance sheet date but arose after that date. FAS No. 165 also requires entities to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. FAS No. 165 was effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company adopted the provisions of FAS No. 165 for the quarter ended June 30, 2009, as required, and adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.
In June 2009, the FASB issued FAS No. 166, “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets.” FAS 166 removes the concept of a qualifying special-purpose entity (QSPE) from FAS No. 140, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities,” and removes the exception from applying FIN 46(R). This statement also clarifies the requirements for isolation and limitations on portions of financial assets that are eligible for sale accounting. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. As such, the Company plans to adopt FAS No. 166 effective October 1, 2010. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.
In June 2009, the FASB issued FAS No. 167, “Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R).” FAS 167, which amends FASB Interpretation No. 46 (revised December 2003), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities,” (FIN 46(R)), prescribes a qualitative model for identifying whether a company has a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity (VIE) and eliminates the quantitative model prescribed by FIN 46(R). The new model identifies two primary characteristics of a controlling financial interest: (1) provides a company with the power to direct significant activities of the VIE, and (2) obligates a company to absorb losses of and/or provides rights to receive benefits from the VIE. FAS No. 167 requires a company to reassess on an ongoing basis whether it holds a controlling financial interest in a VIE. A company that holds a controlling financial interest is deemed to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE and is required to consolidate the VIE. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.
- 18 - -
In June 2009, the FASB issued FAS No. 168, “The ‘FASB Accounting Standards Codification’ and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” FAS No. 168 establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (Codification), which was officially launched on July 1, 2009, and became the primary source of authoritative U.S. GAAP recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under the authority of Federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The subsequent issuances of new standards will be in the form of Accounting Standards Updates that will be included in the Codification. FAS No. 168 is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. As such, the Company plans to adopt FAS No.168 in connection with its fiscal year 2009 reporting. As the Codification is neither expected nor intended to change GAAP, the adoption of FAS No.168 will not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.
10. | FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS |
The estimated fair value amounts have been determined by the Company using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. However, considerable judgment is required to interpret market data to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize in a current market exchange. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

The fair value of cash and cash equivalents is their carrying value due to their short-term nature. The fair value of investment and mortgage-related securities is based on quoted market prices, dealer quotes, and prices obtained from independent pricing services. The fair value of loans is estimated, based on present values using approximate current entry value interest rates, applicable to each category of such financial instruments. The fair value of FHLBank stock approximates its carrying amount.
The fair value of NOW deposits, money market deposits, non-interest bearing deposits and passbook deposits is the amount reported in the financial statements. The fair value of certificates of deposit and borrowings is based on a present value estimate, using rates currently offered for deposits and borrowings with similar remaining maturities. The fair value for accrued interest receivable and payable, the cash surrender value of life insurance and subordinated debentures approximates their carrying value.
Fair values for off-balance sheet commitments are based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standings.
- 19 - -
No adjustment was made to the entry-value interest rates for changes in credit performing commercial real estate and business loans, construction loans, and land loans for which there are no known credit concerns. Management believes that the risk factor embedded in the entry-value interest rates, along with the general reserves applicable to the performing commercial, construction, and land loan portfolios for which there are no known credit concerns, result in a fair valuation of such loans on an entry-value basis. The fair value of non-accrual loans, with a recorded book value of approximately $2,992 and $985 as of June 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008, respectively, was not estimated because it is not practicable to reasonably assess the credit adjustment that would be applied in the marketplace for such loans. The fair value estimates presented herein are based on pertinent information available to management as of June 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008. Although management is not aware of any factors that would significantly affect the estimated fair value amounts, such amounts have not been comprehensively revalued for purposes of these financial statements since June 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008 and, therefore, current estimates of fair value may differ significantly from the amounts presented herein.
11. | SUBSEQUENT EVENTS |
The Company assessed events occurring subsequent to June 30, 2009 through August 13, 2009 for potential recognition and disclosure in the consolidated financial statements, which were issued on August 14, 2009.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
In addition to historical information, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes certain “forward-looking statements” based on management’s current expectations. The Company’s actual results could differ materially, as such term is defined in the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, from management’s expectations. Such forward-looking statements include statements regarding management’s current intentions, beliefs or expectations as well as the assumptions on which such statements are based. These forward-looking statements are subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are not subject to the Company’s control. Existing stockholders and potential stockholders of the Company are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties, and that actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause future results to vary from current management expectations include, but are not limited to, general economic conditions, legislative and regulatory changes, monetary and fiscal policies of the federal government, changes in tax policies, rates and regulations of federal, state and local tax authorities, changes in interest rates, deposit flows, the cost of funds, demand for loan products, demand for financial services, competition, changes in the quality or composition of the Company’s loan and investment portfolios, changes in accounting principles, policies or guidelines, availability and cost of energy resources and other economic, competitive, governmental and technological factors affecting the Company’s operations, markets, products, services and fees.
The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results that occur subsequent to the date such forward-looking statements are made.
General
The Company is a Pennsylvania corporation and the sole stockholder of the Bank, a federally chartered stock savings bank, which converted to the stock form of organization in January 1995. The Bank is a community-oriented bank emphasizing customer service and convenience. The Bank’s primary business is attracting deposits from the general public and using those funds, together with other available sources of funds, primarily borrowings, to originate loans. The Bank’s management remains focused on its long-term strategic plan to continue to shift the Bank’s loan composition towards increased investment in commercial, construction and home equity loans and lines of credit in order to provide a higher yielding loan portfolio with generally shorter contractual terms. In view of the Company’s implementation of an enhanced credit review and loan administration infrastructure, as well as underwriting standards with respect to the origination of commercial loans, the Company has prudently renewed its emphasis on the origination of commercial loans. In furtherance of such goal, the Company engaged, in 2008, an experienced commercial loan officer and a commercial business development officer. However, in light of current economic conditions and the Company’s overriding goal of protecting its asset quality, it is expected that growth of the commercial loan portfolio will be slow for the foreseeable future.
- 20 - -
Critical Accounting Policies
Accounting policies involving significant judgments and assumptions by management, which have, or could have, a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets or comprehensive income, are considered critical accounting policies. In management’s opinion, the three most critical accounting policies affecting the Company’s financial statements are the evaluation of the allowance for loan losses, income taxes and fair value accounting. The Company maintains an allowance for loan losses at a level management believes is sufficient to provide for known and inherent losses in the loan portfolio that are both probable and reasonable to estimate. The allowance for loan losses is considered a critical accounting estimate because there is a large degree of judgment in (i) assigning individual loans to specific risk levels (pass, substandard, doubtful and loss), (ii) valuing the underlying collateral securing the loans, (iii) determining the appropriate reserve factor to be applied to specific risk levels for criticized and classified loans (special mention, substandard, doubtful and loss) and (iv) determining reserve factors to be applied to pass loans based upon loan type. Accordingly, there is a likelihood that materially different amounts would be reported under different, but reasonably plausible conditions or assumptions.
Allowance for Loan Losses. The determination of the allowance for loan losses requires management to make significant estimates with respect to the amounts and timing of losses and market and economic conditions. Accordingly, adverse conditions in the economy and the market could increase loan delinquencies, foreclosures or repossessions resulting in increased charge-off amounts and the need for additional loan loss allowances in future periods. The Bank will continue to monitor and adjust its allowance for loan losses through the use of provisions for loan losses as economic conditions and other factors dictate. Management reviews the allowance for loan losses generally on a monthly basis, but at a minimum at least quarterly. Although the Bank maintains its allowance for loan losses at levels considered adequate to provide for the inherent risk of loss in its loan portfolio, there can be no assurance that future losses will not exceed estimated amounts or that additional provisions for loan losses will not be required in future periods. In addition, the Bank's determination as to the amount of its allowance for loan losses is subject to review by its primary federal banking regulator, the OTS, as part of its examination process, which may result in additional provisions to increase the allowance based upon the judgment and review of the OTS.
Income Taxes. Management makes estimates and judgments to calculate some of our tax liabilities and determine the probability of recoverability of some of our deferred tax assets, which arise from temporary differences between the tax and financial statement recognition of revenues and expenses. Management also estimates a reserve for deferred tax assets if, based on the available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the recorded deferred tax assets will not be realized in future periods. These estimates and judgments are inherently subjective. Historically, our estimates and judgments to calculate our deferred tax accounts have not required significant revision from management’s initial estimates. In evaluating our ability to recover deferred tax assets, management considers all available positive and negative evidence, including our past operating results and our forecast of future taxable income. In determining future taxable income, management makes assumptions for the amount of taxable income, the reversal of temporary differences and the implementation of feasible and prudent tax planning strategies. These assumptions require us to make judgments about our future taxable income and are consistent with the plans and estimates we use to manage our business. Any reduction in estimated future taxable income may require us to record a valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets. An increase in the valuation allowance would result in additional income tax expense in the period and could have a significant impact on our future earnings.
Fair Value Measurement. Under SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements,” we group our assets at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. These levels are:
• Level 1 — Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.
• Level 2 — Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market.
• Level 3 — Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use significant assumptions not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect the Company’s own estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset.
- 21 - -
Under SFAS No. 157, we base our fair values on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. It is our policy to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when developing fair value measurements, in accordance with the fair value hierarchy in SFAS No. 157. Fair value measurements for most of our assets are obtained from independent pricing services that we have engaged for this purpose. When available, we, or our independent pricing service, use quoted market prices to measure fair value. If market prices are not available, fair value measurement is based upon models that incorporate available trade, bid and other market information. Substantially all of our financial instruments use either of the foregoing methodologies to determine fair value adjustments recorded to our financial statements. In certain cases, however, when market observable inputs for model-based valuation techniques may not be readily available, we are required to make judgments about assumptions market participants would use in estimating the fair value of financial instruments. The degree of management judgment involved in determining the fair value of a financial instrument is dependent upon the availability of quoted market prices or observable market parameters. For financial instruments that trade actively and have quoted market prices or observable market parameters, there is minimal subjectivity involved in measuring fair value. When observable market prices and parameters are not fully available, management judgment is necessary to estimate fair value. In addition, changes in the market conditions may reduce the availability of quoted prices or observable data. When market data is not available, we use valuation techniques requiring more management judgment to estimate the appropriate fair value measurement. Therefore, the results cannot be determined with precision and may not be realized in an actual sale or immediate settlement of the asset. Additionally, there may be inherent weaknesses in any calculation technique, and changes in the underlying assumptions used, including discount rates and estimates of future cash flows, that could significantly affect the results of current or future valuations.
At June 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008, the Company had assets, totaling $7.3 million and $8.1 million, respectively, that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis that use Level 3 measurements. The Company also had assets that were measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis that use Level 2 measurements. See Note 4 in the Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements herein for a further description of our fair value measurements.
Supervisory Agreements
On February 13, 2006, the Company and the Bank each entered into a supervisory agreement with the OTS which primarily addressed issues identified in the OTS' reports of examination of the Company's and the Bank's operations and financial condition conducted in 2005.
Under the terms of the supervisory agreement between the Company and the OTS, the Company agreed to, among other things, (i) develop and implement a three-year capital plan designed to support the Company's efforts to maintain prudent levels of capital and to reduce its debt-to-equity ratio below 50%; (ii) not incur any additional debt without the prior written approval of the OTS; and (iii) not repurchase any shares of or pay any cash dividends on its common stock until the Company complied with certain conditions. Upon reducing its debt-to-equity below 50%, the Company may resume the payment of quarterly cash dividends at the lesser of the dividend rate in effect immediately prior to entering into the supervisory agreement ($0.11 per share) or 35% of its consolidated net income (on an annualized basis), provided that the OTS, upon review of prior written notice from the Company of the proposed dividend, does not object to such payment.
The Company submitted to and received from the OTS approval of a capital plan, which called for an equity infusion in order to reduce the Company’s debt-to-equity ratio to below 50%. As part of its capital plan, the Company conducted, in December 2006, a private placement of 400,000 shares of common stock, raising gross proceeds of approximately $6.5 million. In June 2007, the net proceeds of approximately $5.8 million were used to fund, in large part, the redemption of $6.2 million of the Company’s junior subordinated debentures. As a result of such redemption, the Company’s debt-to-equity ratio is less than 50%. Although the Company’s debt-to-equity ratio is below 50%, it does not anticipate resuming the payment of dividends until such time as the Company’s operating results materially improve. During the quarter ended June 30, 2008, the Company redeemed the remaining $2.1 million of its floating rate junior subordinated debentures. In addition, the Company purchased $1.5 million of the $16.2 million of 9.7% fixed-rate trust preferred securities issued by First Keystone Capital Trust I. As a result, as of June 30, 2009 the Company held $5.0 million of such securities.

Under the terms of the supervisory agreement between the Bank and the OTS, the Bank agreed to, among other things, (i) not grow in any quarter in excess of the greater of 3% of total assets (on an annualized basis) or net interest credited on deposit liabilities during such quarter; (ii) maintain its core capital and total risk-based capital in excess of 7.5% and 12.5%, respectively; (iii) adopt revised policies and procedures governing commercial lending; (iv) conduct periodic reviews of its commercial loan department; (v) conduct periodic internal loan reviews; (vi) adopt a revised asset classification policy and (vii) not amend, renew or enter compensatory arrangements with senior executive officers and directors, subject to certain exceptions, without the prior approval of the OTS. As a result of the growth restriction imposed on the Bank, the Company’s growth is currently and will continue to be substantially constrained unless and until the supervisory agreements are terminated or modified. Although the Bank initially exceeded the growth limitation contained in the supervisory agreement, the Bank has complied with the growth restriction since and including September 30, 2006.
As a result of the supervisory agreement, the Bank hired a Chief Credit Officer (who was promoted to Chief Lending Officer during the third quarter of fiscal 2008) who, under the direction of the Board and the Chief Executive Officer, has taken steps to enhance the Bank’s credit review analysis, develop loan administrative procedures and adopt an asset classification system. The Bank continues to address these areas in order to remain in full compliance with the terms of the supervisory agreements.
At June 30, 2009, the Company believes it and the Bank are in compliance in all material respects with all the operative provisions of both supervisory agreements.
Comparison of Financial Condition at June 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008
The Company’s total assets increased by $3.3 million, from $522.1 million at September 30, 2008 to $525.4 million at June 30, 2009. Loans receivable increased by $16.5 million, from $286.1 million at September 30, 2008 to $302.6 million at June 30, 2009 with the majority of the increase accounted for by growth in the commercial business, commercial and multi-family mortgage and construction loan portfolios. At June 30, 2009, mortgage-related securities available for sale and mortgage-related securities held to maturity decreased by $5.1 million, or 4.9% to $97.9 million, and $4.5 million, or 17.6%, to $20.9 million, respectively, from $103.0 million and $25.4 million, respectively, at September 30, 2008, as repayments have outpaced purchases of new securities. Cash flows from repayments were used, in part, to fund loan growth. Deposits increased $22.9 million, or 6.9%, from $330.9 million at September 30, 2008 to $353.8 million at June 30, 2009. The increase in deposits resulted from a $10.0 million, or 14.2%, increase in NOW accounts, a $6.8 million, or 4.2%, increase in certificates of deposit, a $4.9 million, or 14.0% increase in passbook accounts and a $3.2 million, or 7.4% increase in money market accounts, partially offset by a decrease of $2.1 million, or 10.3%, in non-interest-bearing accounts. Advances from FHLBank and other borrowings decreased $27.4 million, or 19.9%, from $137.6 million at September 30, 2008 to $110.2 million at June 30. 2009, as cash flows from deposit growth replaced borrowings from FHLBank. Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $4.2 million to $35.2 million at June 30, 2009 from $39.3 million at September 30, 2008 primarily due to the increase in loans receivable and the decrease in advances from FHLBank, partially offset by increases in deposits and decreases in mortgage-related securities.
Stockholders' equity increased $406,000 from $32.3 million at September 30, 2008 to $32.7 million at June 30, 2009, primarily due to a $1.6 million decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss partially offset by the net loss of $1.2 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2009. The decline in accumulated other comprehensive loss reflected primarily the improvement in fair market values of certain of the Company’s available for sale mortgage-related securities.
Comparison of Results of Operations for the Three and Nine Months Ended June 30, 2009 and 2008
Net Income (Loss). The Company incurred a net loss of $353,000, or $0.15 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 as compared to net income of $243,000, or $0.10 per diluted share, for the same period in 2008. Net loss for the nine months ended June 30, 2009 was $1.2 million or $0.53 per diluted share as compared to net income of $682,000, or $0.29 per diluted share for the same period in 2008. The loss for the three months ended June 30, 2009 was primarily related to the increased provision for loan losses, required to adjust the allowance for loan losses after taking into account the charge-off of $1.3 million in loans, and the one-time assessment and increased deposit insurance premium assessed by the FDIC. The loss for the nine months ended June 30, 2009 was primarily due to impairment charges related to certain of the Company’s investment securities as discussed below, in addition to the aforementioned FDIC charges and a $1.5 million loan loss provision.
- 23 - -
Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $440,000, or 16.9%, to $3.0 million and $1.1 million, or 14.9% to $8.7 million for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2009, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2008. The increases in net interest income for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2009 were primarily due to decreases in interest expense of $932,000, or 23.7% and $2.9 million, or 23.4%, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2008. The decreases in interest expense for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2009 were partially offset by decreases in interest income in such periods of $492,000, or 7.5%, and $1.8 million, or 8.9%, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2008. The weighted average yield earned on interest-earning assets for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2009 decreased 39 basis points to 5.07% and 42 basis points to 5.23%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2008. However, for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2009, the weighted average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities decreased 79 basis points to 2.56% and 80 basis points to 2.77%, respectively, from the same periods in the prior fiscal year. The declines in both interest income and interest expense were in large part due to the declines in market rates of interest in the latter part of 2008 and in 2009, with the greater declines in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities reflecting their greater interest rate sensitivity. The effect of declines in interest rates on both interest income and interest expense outweighed the effect of the increased volumes of both interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.
The interest rate spread and net interest margin were 2.51% and 2.55%, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2009 as compared to 2.11% and 2.17%, respectively, for the same period in 2008. The interest rate spread and net interest margin were 2.46% and 2.50%, respectively, for the nine months ended June 30, 2009 as compared to 2.08% and 2.15%, respectively, for the same period in 2008. The slightly smaller increase in the net interest margin, as compared to the increase in spread for the three- and nine-month comparisons, was primarily due to the relative shift in net interest-earning assets. The increase in the spread and margin reflected the more rapid repricing downward of the Company’s cost of funds as market rates declined during the latter part of 2008 and in 2009.

Provision for Loan Losses. Provisions for loan losses are charged to earnings to maintain the total allowance for loan losses at a level believed by management sufficient to cover all known and inherent losses in the loan portfolio which are both probable and reasonably estimable. Management’s analysis includes consideration of the Company’s historical experience, the volume and type of lending conducted by the Company, the amount of the Company’s classified and criticized assets, the status of past due principal and interest payments, general economic conditions, particularly as they relate to the Company’s primary market area, and other factors related to the collectability of the Company’s loan portfolio. For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2009, the provision for loan losses was $750,000 and $1.5 million, respectively. The Company did not establish any provision for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and only a small provision of $56,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2008. During the three and nine months ended June 30, 2009, loans aggregating $1.3 million and $1.5 million, respectively, were charged off against the provision for loan loss. The loans charged off during the three months ended June 30, 2009 included four commercial mortgage loans aggregating $662,000, a $195,000 home equity loan, and a $414,000 commercial business loan, all of which had been non-performing at March 31, 2009. For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2009, the level of allowance for loan loss was based on the Company’s monthly review of the credit quality of its loan portfolio and the continual evaluation of the classified and pass loan portfolios in order to maintain the overall allowance for loan losses at a level deemed appropriate, and took into account the effects of the charge-offs.
- 26 - -
At June 30, 2009, non-performing assets increased $800,000 to $3.2 million, or 0.6%, of total assets, from $2.4 million at September 30, 2008. This increase was primarily the result of an increase in non-accrual loans of $2.0 million, comprised of a $1.4 million commercial real estate loan secured by a shopping center in Philadelphia, three commercial business loans aggregating $576,000, four home equity loans aggregating $273,000 and two single-family residential mortgages aggregating $593,000. The increase in non-accrual loans was partially offset by returns to performing status of two home equity loans aggregating $237,000 and one $114,000 single-family residential mortgage. In addition, a $419,000 commercial business loan that was non-performing at September 30, 2008 was charged off during the current quarter. The Company's coverage ratio, which is the ratio of the allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans, was 108.8% and 142.7% at June 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008, respectively. In addition, loans 30 to 89 days delinquent increased $400,000, from $3.1 million at September 30, 2008 to $3.5 million at June 30, 2009. The increase was primarily the result of increases of $923,000, $523,000 and $360,000 in commercial mortgage loans, commercial business loans, and single-family residential mortgages, respectively, which were 30 to 89 days delinquent, partially offset by the return to current status of $1.4 million of construction loans that had been 30 to 89 days delinquent at September 30, 2008.
At June 30, 2009, the Bank’s classified assets increased by $6.2 million to $18.1 million compared to $11.9 million at September 30, 2008. At June 30, 2009, classified assets were comprised of substandard commercial business and commercial real estate loans aggregating $10.0 million, home equity loans aggregating $273,000, single-family residential mortgage loans aggregating $944,000, a construction loan of $195,000, private-label collateralized mortgage obligations aggregating $1.9 million, pooled trust preferred securities aggregating $2.1 million, a $1.6 million corporate bond and a portion of the Company’s $3.1 million investment in a mutual fund, $722,000 of which was rated below investment grade at June 30, 2009. In addition, a $350,000 commercial business loan was classified as doubtful as of June 30, 2009.
Management continues to review its loan portfolio to determine the extent, if any, to which additional loss provisions may be deemed necessary. There can be no assurance that the allowance for losses will be adequate to cover losses which may in fact be realized in the future and that additional provisions for losses will not be required.
Non-interest Income. For the three months ended June 30, 2009, non-interest income decreased $141,000 to $562,000 as compared to the same period last year. The decrease was primarily due to a smaller increase in the cash surrender value of bank owned life insurance, as compared to the comparable 2008 quarter combined with a $54,000 decrease in service charges and other fees and a $29,000 decrease in the earnings of the Bank’s insurance subsidiary as compared to the same period last year.
Non-interest income decreased $1.3 million to $830,000 for the nine months ending June 30, 2009 as compared to the same period last year. The decrease was primarily the result of the $1.2 million net non-cash impairment charge, recorded in the prior quarter, related to the determination that a portion of the decline in value of the Company’s $3.1 million investment in a mutual fund, its $280,000 investment in a pooled trust preferred security and its $76,000 investment in three collateralized mortgage obligation securities were other than temporary as discussed in Notes 2 and 3 of the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.
The market value of the Company’s investments may be affected by factors other than the underlying performance of the issuer or composition of the bonds themselves, such as ratings downgrades, adverse changes in business climate and lack of liquidity for resales of certain investment securities. The Company periodically, but not less than quarterly, evaluates investments and other assets for impairment indicators. The Company may be required to record additional impairment charges if investments suffer a decline in value that is considered other-than-temporary. If it is determined that an impairment has occurred, the Company would be required to charge against earnings the credit-related portion of the OTTI, which could have a material adverse effect on results of operations in the period in which the write-off occurs.
- 27 - -
Non-interest Expense. Non-interest expense increased $406,000 to $3.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 as compared to the same period last year. The increase for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 was primarily due to a $362,000 increase in federal deposit insurance premiums (which included a one-time assessment of $240,000) as compared to the same period last year. These increases were partially offset by decreases of $58,000, $45,000 and $23,000 in professional fees, compensation and advertising expense, respectively, as compared to the same period last year.
Non-interest expense increased $806,000 to $9.8 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2009, as compared to the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to a $591,000 increase in federal deposit insurance premiums (which included the one-time assessment of $240,000 noted above) as compared to the same period last year. The large increase in federal deposit insurance premiums for both periods was due to the Federal Deposit Insurance Coorporation’s decision to increase rates applicable to all insured institutions in response to the increased level of failed institutions and the costs thereof to the Deposit Insurance Fund as well as to impose a special assessment of 5 basis points.
Income Tax Expense. The Company’s income tax expense decreased $260,000 to a benefit of $240,000 and decreased $588,000 to a benefit of $550,000 for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2009, respectively, as compared to the same periods last year. The decreases were largely the result of the OTTI charges recorded on certain investment securities as mentioned previously combined with the significantly increased loan loss provisions.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company’s liquidity, represented by cash and cash equivalents, is a product of its operating, investing and financing activities. The Company’s primary sources of funds are deposits, amortization, prepayments and maturities of outstanding loans and mortgage-related securities, sales of loans, maturities of investment securities and other short-term investments, borrowings and funds provided from operations. While scheduled payments from the amortization of loans and mortgage-related securities and maturing investment securities and short-term investments are relatively predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and loan and mortgage-related securities prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition. In addition, the Company invests excess funds in overnight deposits and other short-term interest-earning assets which provide liquidity to meet lending requirements. The Company has the ability to obtain advances from the FHLBank Pittsburgh through several credit programs with the FHLB in amounts not to exceed the Bank’s maximum borrowing capacity and subject to certain conditions, including holding a predetermined amount of FHLB stock as collateral. As an additional source of funds, the Company has access to the FRB discount window, but only after it has exhausted its access to the FHLBank. At June 30, 2009, the Company had $102.7 million of outstanding advances and $7.5 million of overnight borrowings from the FHLBank Pittsburgh. The Bank currently has the ability to obtain up to $92.5 million of additional advances from the FHLBank Pittsburgh.
Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of business management. Excess liquidity is generally invested in short-term investments such as overnight deposits. On a longer term basis, the Company maintains a strategy of investing in various lending products, mortgage-related securities and investment securities. The Company uses its sources of funds primarily to meet its ongoing commitments, to fund maturing certificates of deposit and savings withdrawals, fund loan commitments and maintain a portfolio of mortgage-related and investment securities. As of June 30, 2009, total approved loan commitments outstanding amounted to $3.6 million, not including $10.8 million in loans in process. At the same date, commitments under unused lines of credit amounted to $35.8 million. Certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in one year or less at June 30, 2009 totaled $120.5 million. Based upon the Company’s historical experience, management believes that a significant portion of maturing deposits will remain with the Company.
The Bank is required under applicable federal banking regulations to maintain tangible capital equal to at least 1.5% of its adjusted total assets, core capital equal to at least 4.0% of its adjusted total assets and total capital (or risk-based) equal to at least 8.0% of its risk-weighted assets. At June 30, 2009, the Bank had tangible capital and core capital equal to 8.31% of adjusted total assets and total capital equal to 13.6% of risk-weighted assets. However, as a result of the supervisory agreement discussed in Item 2 of Part I hereof, the Bank is required to maintain core and risk-based capital in excess of 7.5% and 12.5%, respectively. The Bank is in compliance with such higher capital requirements imposed by the supervisory agreement.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices
The Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company and related notes presented herein have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles which requires the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars, without considering changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation.
Unlike most industrial companies, substantially all of the assets and liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a more significant impact on a financial institution's performance than the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or in the same magnitude as the price of goods and services, since such prices are affected by inflation to a larger extent than interest rates. In the current interest rate environment, liquidity and the maturity structure of the Company's assets and liabilities are critical to the maintenance of acceptable performance levels.
Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk |
For a discussion of the Company’s asset and liability management policies, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2008.
The Company utilizes reports prepared by the OTS to measure interest rate risk. Using data from the Bank’s quarterly thrift financial reports, the OTS models the net portfolio value (“NPV”) of the Bank over a variety of interest rate scenarios. The NPV is defined as the present value of expected cash flows from existing assets less the present value of expected cash flows from existing liabilities plus the present value of net expected cash inflows from existing off-balance sheet contracts. The model assumes instantaneous, parallel shifts in the U.S. Treasury Securities yield curve up to 300 basis points, and a decline of 100 basis points.
The interest rate risk measures used by the OTS include an “Exposure Measure” or “Post-Shock” NPV ratio and a “Sensitivity Measure”. The “Post-Shock” NPV ratio is the net present value as a percentage of assets over the various yield curve shifts. A low “Post-Shock” NPV ratio indicates greater exposure to interest rate risk and can result from a low initial NPV ratio or high sensitivity to changes in interest rates. The “Sensitivity Measure” is the decline in the NPV ratio, in basis points, caused by a 2% increase or decrease in rates, whichever produces a larger decline. The following sets forth the Bank’s NPV as of June 30, 2009.

Item 4T. Controls and Procedures
Our management evaluated, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and regulations and (ii) accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and that such disclosure controls and procedures are operating in an effective manner.
No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
