NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 During fiscal 1995, the Board of Directors of First Federal Savings Bank (the Savings Bank) adopted a plan of conversion (the Plan) whereby the Savings Bank would convert to the stock form of ownership (the Conversion), followed by the issuance of all of the Savings Bank's outstanding stock to a newly formed holding company, Kentucky First Bancorp, Inc. (the Corporation), and the issuance of common shares of the Corporation to subscribing members of the Savings Bank. The conversion to the stock form of ownership was completed on August 28, 1995, culminating in the Corporation's issuance of 1,388,625 common shares. Financial statements for periods prior to August 28, 1995, are those of the Savings Bank prior to the conversion to stock form. Future references are made to either the Corporation or the Savings Bank as applicable. 1. Basis of Presentation --------------------- The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-QSB and, therefore, do not include information or footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of the Corporation included in the Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended June 30, 1996. However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements have been included. The results of operations for the three month periods ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for an entire fiscal year. 2. Principles of Consolidation --------------------------- The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Corporation and the Savings Bank. All significant intercompany items have been eliminated. 3. Earnings Per Share ------------------ Earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 1996 is based upon the weighted-average shares outstanding during the period plus those stock options that are dilutive, less shares in the ESOP that are unallocated and not committed to be released. Weighted-average common shares deemed outstanding, which gives effect to 101,832 unallocated ESOP shares, totaled 1,286,793 for the three months ended September 30, 1996. There is no dilutive effect associated with the Corporation's stock option plan. The provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 15 "Earnings Per Share" are not applicable to the three months ended September 30, 1995, as the Corporation had not issued any common stock prior to its initial offering in August 1995. 7 KENTUCKY FIRST BANCORP, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) For the three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 4. Effects of Recent Accounting Pronouncements ------------------------------------------- In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", establishing financial accounting and reporting standards for stock-based employee compensation plans. SFAS No. 123 encourages all entities to adopt a new method of accounting to measure compensation cost of all employee stock compensation plans based on the estimated fair value of the award at the date it is granted. Companies are, however, allowed to continue to measure compensation cost for those plans using the intrinsic value based method of accounting, which generally does not result in compensation expense recognition for most plans. Companies that elect to remain with the existing accounting are required to disclose in a footnote to the financial statements pro forma net earnings and, if presented, earnings per share, as if SFAS No. 123 had been adopted. The accounting requirements of SFAS No. 123 are effective for transactions entered into during fiscal years that begin after December 15, 1995; however, companies are required to disclose information for awards granted in their first fiscal year beginning after December 15, 1994. Management has determined that the Corporation will continue to account for stock-based compensation pursuant to Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, and therefore the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123 will have no effect on its consolidated financial condition or results of operations. In June 1996, the FASB issued SFAS No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets, Servicing Rights, and Extinguishment of Liabilities", that provides accounting guidance on transfers of financial assets, servicing of financial assets, and extinguishment of liabilities. SFAS No. 125 introduces an approach to accounting for transfers of financial assets that provides a means of dealing with more complex transactions in which the seller disposes of only a partial interest in the assets, retains rights or obligations, makes use of special purpose entities in the transaction, or otherwise has continuing involvement with the transferred assets. The new accounting method, the financial components approach, provides that the carrying amount of the financial assets transferred be allocated to components of the transaction based on their relative fair values. SFAS No. 125 provides criteria for determining whether control of assets has been relinquished and whether a sale has occurred. If the transfer does not qualify as a sale, it is accounted for as a secured borrowing. Transactions subject to the provisions of SFAS No. 125 include, among others, transfers involving repurchase agreements, securitizations of financial assets, loan participations, factoring arrangements, and transfers of receivables with recourse. An entity that undertakes an obligation to service financial assets recognizes either a servicing asset or liability for the servicing contract (unless related to a securitization of assets, and all the securitized assets are retained and classified as held-to-maturity). A servicing asset or liability that is purchased or assumed is initially recognized at its fair value. Servicing assets and liabilities are amortized in proportion to and over the period of estimated net servicing income or net servicing loss and are subject to subsequent assessments for impairment based on fair value. SFAS No. 125 provides that a liability is removed from the balance sheet only if the debtor either pays the creditor and is relieved of its obligation for the liability or is legally released from being the primary obligor. SFAS No. 125 is effective for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishment of liabilities occurring after December 31, 1996, and is to be applied prospectively. Earlier or retroactive application is not permitted. Management does not believe that adoption of SFAS No. 125 will have a material adverse effect on the Corporation's consolidated financial position or results of operations. 8 KENTUCKY FIRST BANCORP, INC. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Discussion of Financial Condition Changes from June 30, 1996 to September 30, 1996 - ---------------------------------------------------------------- At September 30, 1996, the Corporation's assets totaled $86.0 million, a decrease of $288,000, or .3%, from the $86.3 million of total assets at June 30, 1996. The decline in assets resulted from a decline in the deposit portfolio of $2.2 million which was partially offset by an increase in advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of $1.8 million. Liquid assets (i.e. cash, interest-bearing deposits and investment securities) decreased by $2.1 million over the three month period, to a total of $15.0 million at September 30, 1996, as investment securities totaling $1.1 million matured during the quarter. Regulatory liquidity amounted to 10.3%, at September 30, 1996. Loans receivable increased by $2.3 million, or 5.2%, during the three month period, to a total of $45.3 million at September 30, 1996. Loan disbursements amounted to $5.0 million and were partially offset by principal repayments of $2.8 million. The allowance for loan losses totaled $370,000 at September 30, 1996, as compared to $367,000 at June 30, 1996. Nonperforming loans totaled $76,000 at September 30, 1996, as compared to $122,000 at June 30, 1996. The allowance for loan losses represented 486.8% of nonperforming loans as of September 30, 1996 and 300.8% at June 30, 1996. Although management believes that its allowance for loan losses at September 30, 1996 is adequate based upon facts and circumstances available to it, there can be no assurances that additions to such allowance will not be necessary in future periods, which could adversely affect the Corporation's results of operations. Deposits totaled $49.6 million at September 30, 1996, a decrease of $2.2 million, or 4.2%, from June 30, 1996 levels. Management continued its conservative pricing strategy with respect to deposit accounts during the current interest rate environment. The Savings Bank is required to meet each of three minimum capital standards promulgated by the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS), hereinafter described as the tangible capital requirement, the core capital requirement and the risk-based capital requirement. The tangible capital requirement mandates maintenance of shareholders' equity less all intangible assets equal to 1.5% of adjusted total assets. The core capital requirement provides for the maintenance of tangible capital plus certain forms of supervisory goodwill equal to 3% of adjusted total assets, while the risk-based capital requirement mandates maintenance of core capital plus general loan loss allowances equal to 8% of risk-weighted assets as defined by OTS regulations. At September 30, 1996, the Savings Bank's tangible and core capital totaled $15.6 million, or 18.2%, of adjusted total assets, which exceeded the minimum tangible and core capital requirements of $1.3 million and $2.6 million by $14.4 million and $13.1 million, respectively. The Savings Bank's risk-based capital of $16.0 million, or 34.7% of risk-weighted assets, exceeded the current 8% requirement by $12.3 million. 9 KENTUCKY FIRST BANCORP, INC. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED) Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Month Periods Ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 - ----------------------------------------------------------------- General - ------- Net earnings amounted to $15,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1996, a decrease of $130,000, or 89.7%, from the $145,000 of net earnings reported for the same period in 1995. The decline in earnings resulted primarily from a $351,000 charge recorded in the current quarter reflecting a special assessment to recapitalize the Savings Association Insurance Fund (SAIF), coupled with a $115,000 increase in general, administrative and other expense, which were partially offset by a $255,000 increase in net interest income, a $3,000 increase in other income and a $74,000 decrease in the provision for federal income taxes. Net Interest Income - ------------------- Net interest income increased by $255,000, or 47.6%, for the three months ended September 30, 1996, compared to the 1995 period. Interest income on loans increased by $127,000, or 16.3%, due primarily to a $4.1 million increase in the average balance of loans outstanding year-to-year coupled with an increase in yield. Interest income on mortgage-backed securities increased by $246,000, or 201.6%, due primarily to a $14.9 million increase in the average balance outstanding. Interest income on investment securities and interest-bearing deposits decreased by $29,000, or 9.8%, due primarily to a decline in the average portfolio balance outstanding. The increases in interest-earning assets and corresponding increase in interest income reflect management's deployment of proceeds from the Corporation's common stock offering. Interest expense on deposits decreased by $112,000, or 17.2%, due primarily to a $1.2 million decrease in average deposits outstanding coupled with a decline in the cost of deposits year- to-year. Interest expense on borrowings increased by $201,000 during the current quarter, due primarily to a $14.2 million increase in advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank. As a result of the foregoing changes in interest income and interest expense, net interest income increased by $255,000, or 47.6%, to a total of $791,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1996. The interest rate spread increased to approximately 2.94% from 2.47% during the respective 1996 and 1995 quarters, while the net interest margin increased to approximately 3.86% in 1996, as compared to 3.34% in 1995. 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 Savings Bank, the status of past due principal and interest payments, general economic conditions, particularly as such conditions relate to the Savings Bank's market area, and other factors related to the collectibility of the Savings Bank's loan portfolio. As a result of such analysis, management recorded a $4,000 provision for losses on loans during the three month period ended September 30, 1996. There can be no assurance that the loan loss allowance of the Savings Bank will be adequate to absorb losses on known nonperforming assets or that the allowance will be adequate to cover losses on nonperforming assets in the future. 10 KENTUCKY FIRST BANCORP, INC. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED) Other Income - ------------ Other income increased by $3,000, or 8.8%, for the three months ended September 30, 1996, compared to the same period in 1995, due primarily an increase in service charges and fees on loans and deposits. General, Administrative and Other Expense - ----------------------------------------- General, administrative and other expense increased by $466,000, or 135.9%, during the three months ended September 30, 1996, compared to the same period in 1995. This increase resulted primarily from the $351,000 charge recorded in 1996 attendant to the aforementioned SAIF recapitalization. The deposit accounts of the Savings Bank and of other savings associations are insured by the FDIC in the SAIF. The reserves of the SAIF are below the level required by law, because a significant portion of the assessments paid into the fund are used to pay the cost of prior thrift failures. The deposit accounts of commercial banks are insured by the FDIC in the Bank Insurance Fund ("BIF"), except to the extent such banks have acquired SAIF deposits. The reserves of the BIF met the level required by law in May 1995. As a result of the respective reserve levels of the funds, deposit insurance assessments paid by healthy savings associations exceeded those paid by healthy commercial banks by approximately $.19 per $100 in deposits in 1995. In 1996, no BIF assessments are required for healthy commercial banks except for a $2,000 minimum fee. A continuation of this premium disparity could have a negative competitive impact on the Savings Bank and other institutions with SAIF deposits. Congress enacted legislation, the Deposit Insurance Funds Act of 1996, to recapitalize the SAIF and eliminate the significant premium disparity. The recapitalization plan provides for a special assessment of $.657 per $100 of SAIF deposits held at March 31, 1995, in order to increase SAIF reserves to the level required by law. SAIF assessments would initially be set at the same level as BIF assessments. Assessments on well-capitalized institutions with the highest supervisory ratings would be reduced to zero and institutions in the lowest risk assessment classification will be assessed at the rate of 0.27% of insured deposits, and could never be reduced below the level for BIF assessments. Until December 31, 1999, however, SAIF insured institutions will be required to pay assessments to the FDIC at the rate of 6.4 basis points to help fund interest payments on certain bonds issued by the Financing Corporation ("FICO"), an agency of the federal government established to finance takeovers of insolvent thrifts. During this period, BIF members will be assessed for FICO obligations at the rate of 1.3 basis points. After December 31, 1999, both BIF and SAIF members will be assessed at the same rate for FICO payments. The Savings Bank had $53.6 million in deposits at March 31, 1995. The special assessment level was finalized at $.657 per $100 in deposits, resulting in an assessment totaling $351,000, or $232,000 after-tax. A component of the recapitalization plan provides for the merger of the SAIF and BIF on December 31, 1999, but only if there are no insured savings association on that date. The legislation directs the Department of Treasury to make recommendations to Congress by March 31, 1997 for the establishment of a single charter for banks and thrifts. The Savings Bank cannot predict what the effect of this legislation will be on the Savings Bank. 11 KENTUCKY FIRST BANCORP, INC. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED) General, Administrative and Other Expense (continued) - ----------------------------------------- income, approximately $268,000 of its percentage of earnings bad debt deduction, which represents post-1987 additions, and would be unable to utilize the percentage of earnings method to compute its bad debt deduction in the future. The Savings Bank has provided deferred taxes for this amount and is permitted to amortize the recapture of its percentage of earnings bad debt deduction over six years. Additionally, the increase in general, administrative and other expense resulted from a $63,000, or 37.1%, increase in employee compensation and benefits and a $54,000, or 63.5%, increase in other operating expense. The increase in employee compensation generally reflects normal merit increases and increased costs attendant to the Corporation's stock benefit plans implemented in conjunction with the mutual-to-stock conversion. The increase in other operating expense resulted primarily from increases in professional fees, printing and other costs related to increased reporting requirements of a public stock company. The special one-time assessment to recapitalize the SAIF is expected to cause federal deposit insurance premiums to be significantly reduced in future quarters, beginning January 1, 1997. Federal Income Taxes - -------------------- The provision for federal income taxes declined by $74,000, or 100.0%, for the three months ended September 30, 1996, as compared to the same period in 1995. This decline resulted primarily from the decrease in net earnings before taxes of $192,000, or 87.7%. The effective tax rate was 33.8% for the three months ended September 30, 1995. 12 KENTUCKY FIRST BANCORP, INC. PART II Item 1. Legal Proceedings ----------------- Not applicable Item 2.
