Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition
On February 9, 2007, PennFed Financial Services, Inc. (the Company)
issued the press release attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 announcing its second
quarter earnings.
The press release includes non-GAAP financial measures which exclude
the effects of merger-related expenses, a prepayment premium received on a
commercial loan, the payment of a penalty associated with the prepayment of
certain advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York, the acceleration
of depreciation on branch automation software and an increase in the Company's
obligation under certain long-term benefit plans.
Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures because it believes
these measures facilitate comparisons of the Company's historical financial
results.
These non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles and may be different from non-GAAP
financial measures used by other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures should
not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial
performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
