Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Statement of Information Furnished
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with Form 10-Q instructions and Article 10 of Regulation
S-X, and in the opinion of management contains all adjustments (all of which are
normal and recurring in nature) necessary to present fairly the financial
position as of March 31, 1998, the results of operations for the three months
ended March 31, 1998 and 1997 and cash flows for the three months ended March
31, 1998 and 1997. These results have been determined on the basis of generally
accepted accounting principles. The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The attached consolidated statements are those of AMB Financial Corp. (the
"Holding Company") and its consolidated subsidiaries American Savings, FSB (the
"Bank"), the Bank's wholly owned subsidiary NIFCO, Inc. , and wholly owned
subsidiary of NIFCO,Inc., Ridge Management, Inc. The results of operations for
the three month period ended March 31, 1998 is not necessarily indicative of the
results to be expected for the full year.
2. Mutual to Stock Conversion
In December 1995, the Bank's Board of Directors approved a Plan of
Conversion (the "Conversion"), providing for the Bank's conversion from a
federally chartered mutual savings bank to a federally chartered stock savings
bank with the concurrent formation of a holding company. The Holding Company
issued 1,124,125 shares of $.01 par value common stock at $10.00 per share, for
an aggregate purchase price of $11,241,250. The Conversion and sale of 1,124,125
shares of common stock of the Holding Company was completed on March 29, 1996.
Net proceeds to the Company, after conversion expenses, totaled approximately
$10,658,000.
3. Earnings Per Share
Earnings per share for the three month periods ended March 31, 1998 and
1997 were determined by dividing net income for the periods by the weighted
average number of both basic and diluted shares of common stock and common stock
equivalents outstanding (see Exhibit 11 attached). Stock options are regarded as
common stock equivalents and are considered in diluted earnings per share
calculations. Common stock equivalents are computed using treasury stock method.
ESOP shares not committed to be released to participants are not considered
outstanding for purposes of computing earnings per share amounts. Earnings per
share data for the three month period ended March 31, 1997 has been restated for
comparative purposes to reflect the implementation of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 128.
4. Impact of New Accounting Standards
Employers' Disclosures about Pension and Other Employee Benefits. In
February 1998, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
132, "Employer's Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits"
("SFAS No. 132"). SFAS No. 132 alters current disclosure requirements regarding
pensions and other postretirement benefits in the financial statements of
employers who sponsor such benefit plans. The revised disclosure requirements
are designed to provide additional information to assist readers in evaluating
future costs related to such plans. Additionally, the revised disclosures are
designed to provide changes in the components of pension and benefit costs in
addition to the year end components of those factors in the resulting asset or
liability related to such plans. The statement is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 1997 with earlier application available. The
Company has not yet determined the impact of adopting this statement.
The foregoing does not constitute a comprehensive summary of all
material changes or developments affecting the manner in which the Company keeps
its books and records and performs its financial accounting responsibilities. It
is intended only as a summary of some of the recent pronouncements made by the
FASB which are of particular interest to financial institutions.
Reporting Comprehensive Income. In June 1997, the FASB issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income"
("SFAS 130"). This statement establishes standards for reporting and display of
comprehensive income and its components (revenues, expenses, gains, losses) in a
full set of general-purpose financial statements. SFAS 130 is effective for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. The Company has not yet
determined the impact of adopting this statement.
Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information. In
June 1997, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131,
"Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" ("SFAS
131") which becomes effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
1997. SFAS 131 establishes standards for the way that public business
enterprises report information about operating segments and requires enterprises
to report selected information about operating segments in interim financial
reports. The Company has not yet determined the impact of adopting this
statement.
The foregoing does not constitute a comprehensive summary of all
material changes or developments affecting the manner in which the Company keeps
its books and records and performs its financial accounting responsibilities. It
is intended only as a summary of some of the recent pronouncements made by the
FASB which are of particular interest to financial institutions.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations
FINANCIAL CONDITION
March 31, 1998 compared to December 31, 1997.
Total assets of the Company increased $6.4 million, or 6.41% to $106.2 million
at March 31, 1998 compared to $99.8 million at December 31, 1997. This increase
was primarily attributable to the Company's loan growth which was funded by an
increase in both deposits and borrowed funds.
At March 31, 1998, cash and cash equivalents increased by $387,000 as liquidity
was maintained in anticipation of loan funding and for general operating
purposes.
Investment securities available for sale decreased $500,000 to $7.7 million at
March 31, 1998 as a result of proceeds from maturing U.S. Treasury securities
being utilized for lending purpose.
Loans receivable increased to $83.1 million at March 31, 1998, a $6.0 million or
7.84% increase, as new loan originations of $4.9 million and loan purchases of
$6.5 million exceeded loan repayments of $5.3 million. Loan purchases during the
first quarter were in one to four family residential first mortgage loans
located in the Midwest and Southern sections of the country.
Total deposits at March 31, 1998 increased by $2.7 million or 3.75%, as deposit
receipts of $33.8 million and interest credited of $663,000 exceeded withdrawal
activity of $31.8 million. This deposit gain was primarily attributable to a
special rate 14 month certificate of deposit program.
Borrowed funds, which consist of FHLB of Indianapolis advances, increased $3.0
million to $15.0 million at March 31, 1998. The increase in borrowed funds was
utilized to fund loan production during the period.
Stockholders' equity increased $206,000 to $15.0 million at March 31, 1998 from
$14.8 million at December 31, 1997. This increase was attributable to net income
of $225,000, and normal amortization of RRP and ESOP benefits of $44,000, which
was offset by the declaration of dividends on common stock of $63,000.
Results of Operations
The Company's results of operations depend primarily upon the level of net
interest income, which is the difference between the interest income earned on
its interest-earning assets such as loans and investments, and the costs of the
Company's interest-bearing liabilities, primarily deposits and borrowings. Net
interest income depends upon the volume of interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities and the interest rate earned or paid on them,
respectively. Results of operations are also dependent upon the level of the
Company's non-interest income, including fee income and service charges, and
affected by the level of its non-interest expenses, including its general and
administrative expenses.
Comparison of Operating Results for the Quarters
Ended March 31, 1998 and 1997.
Net Income. The Company's net income for the three months ended March 31, 1998
decreased $10,000 to $225,000 as compared to $235,000 in the prior year's
quarter. This decrease was due primarily to an increase in non- interest expense
of $169,000 and an increase in loan loss provision of $18,000 offset by an
increase in net interest income of $16,000, an increase in non-interest income
of $154,000, and a decrease in income taxes of $6,000.
Interest Income. Total interest income increased $220,000 or 12.98%, for the
three months ended March 31, 1998 compared to the prior year's quarter. This
increase is chiefly due to the higher volume of interest-earning assets of $12.7
million. This higher volume is due mostly to a higher volume of loans receivable
which reflects the Company's aggressive lending efforts. During the quarter
ended March 31, 1998, the average yield on interest-earning assets decreased to
7.79% from 7.93% during the prior year's quarter. The decrease in yield on
average interest-earning assets was due primarily to current market interest
rates.
Interest Expense. Total interest expense increased $203,000 or 24.32% for the
three months ended March 31, 1998 compared to the prior year's quarter. The
increase was due primarily to an increase of $14.0 million in the average
deposits and borrowed money outstanding and, to a lesser extent, by an increase
of 21 basis points in the average cost of funds.
Provision for Loan Losses. The determination of the allowance for loan losses
involves material estimates that are susceptible to significant change in the
near term. The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level deemed
adequate to provide for losses through charges to operating expense. The
allowance is based upon past loss experience and other factors which, in
management's judgment, deserve current recognition in estimating losses. Such
other factors considered by management include growth and composition of the
loan portfolio, the relationship of the allowance for losses to outstanding
loans, and economic conditions.
A provision for loan losses of $23,000 was recorded during the three months
ended March 31, 1998 compared to $5,000 for the same quarter a year ago. The
increase in the provision for losses on loans was due to the continuing growth
in loans receivables. Non-performing loans at March 31, 1998 continue to remain
stable, as compared to December 31, 1997, and amount to $326,000 or .39% of net
loans receivable. The allowance for loan losses at March 31, 1998 of $433,000
represents 133% of non-performing loans. The Bank will continue to review its
allowance for loan losses and make future provisions as economic and regulatory
conditions dictate. Although the Bank maintains its allowance for loan losses at
a level that it considers to be adequate to provide for losses, 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.
Non-Interest Income. The Company's non-interest income increased $154,000 to
$313,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1998 compared to $159,000 for the same
quarter a year ago. The increase was due primarily from gains on the sale of
investment securities held for trade of $10,000, an increase in unrealized gain
on the Company's trading portfolio of $81,000, and an increase of $34,000 in
deposit related fees due in part to an increase in ATM usage fees.
Non-Interest Expense. The Company's non-interest expense increased $169,000 to
$799,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1998 compared to $630,000 for the same
quarter a year ago. The increase was primarily the result of increased staffing
costs of $81,000, due to bonuses of $44,000, normal salary and benefit increases
of $29,000, and the expense recognition of the ESOP of $8,000; additional data
processing costs of $9,000, and increases in professional fees of $21,000 and
other operating expenses of $58,000 due to growth of the Company's operations.
Provision for Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes decreased $6,000 to
$138,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1998 as compared to the prior year
quarter due to a decrease in pre-tax income.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's principal sources of funds are deposits, proceeds from principal
and interest payments on loans (including mortgage-backed securities), sales or
maturities of investment securities and income from operations. While scheduled
loan repayments and maturing investments are relatively predictable, deposit
flows and early loan repayments are more influenced by interest rates, floors
and caps on loan rates, general economic conditions and competition. The primary
business activity of the Company, that of making conventional mortgage loans on
residential housing, is likewise affected by economic conditions.
Federal regulations require the Bank to maintain minimum levels of liquid
assets. The required percentage has varied from time to time based upon economic
conditions and savings flows and is currently 5% of net withdrawable savings
deposits and borrowings payable on demand or in one year or less during the
preceding calendar month. Liquid assets for purposes of this ratio include cash,
certain time deposits, U.S. Government, government agency and corporate
securities and other obligations generally having remaining maturities of less
than five years. The Bank has historically maintained its liquidity ratio for
regulatory purposes at levels in excess of those required. At March 31, 1998,
the Bank's liquidity ratio for regulatory purposes was 15.67%.
The Company's most liquid assets are cash and cash equivalents, which consist of
interest-bearing deposits and short-term highly liquid investments with original
maturities of less than three months that are readily convertible to known
amounts of cash. The level of these assets is dependent on the Company's
operating, financing and investing activities during any given period. At March
31, 1998 and December 31, 1997 cash and cash equivalents totaled $6.1 million
and $5.7 million respectively.
Liquidity management for the Company is both a daily and long-term function of
the Company's management strategy. Excess funds are generally invested in
short-term investments, such as overnight deposits. If the Company requires
funds beyond its ability to generate them internally, additional funds are
available through FHLB advances.
The Company anticipates that it will have sufficient funds available to meet
current commitments. At March 31, 1998 the Company has outstanding loan
commitments totaling $1.7 million and unused lines of credit granted totaling
$5.0 million.
Federally insured savings associations, such as the Bank, are required to
maintain a minimum level of regulatory capital. The OTS has established capital
standards, including a leverage ratio (or core capital) requirement and a
risk-based capital requirement applicable to such savings associations. These
capital requirements must be generally as stringent as the comparable capital
requirements for national banks. The OTS is also authorized to impose capital
requirements in excess of these standards on individual associations on a
case-by-case basis.
At March 31, 1998, the Bank had core capital equal to $9.7 million, or 9.37% of
adjusted total assets which was $5.5 million above the minimum leverage ratio
requirement of 4% in effect on that date. The Bank had total capital of $10.1
million (including $9.7 million in core capital and $400,000 in qualifying
supplementary capital) and risk-weighted assets of $57.0 million; or total
risk-based capital of 17.7% of risk-weighted assets at March 31, 1998. This
amount was $5.5 million above the 8% requirement in effect on that date.
Non-Performing Assets
The following table sets forth the amounts and categories of
non-performing assets in the Company's portfolio. Loans are reviewed monthly and
any loan whose collectibility is doubtful is placed on non-accrual status. Loans
are placed on non-accrual status when principal and interest is 90 days or more
past due, unless, in the judgement of management, the loan is well
collateralized and in the process of collection. Interest accrued and unpaid at
the time a loan is placed on non-accrual status is charged against interest
income. Subsequent payments are either applied to the outstanding principal
balance or recorded as interest income, depending on the assessment of the
ultimate collectibility of the loan. Restructured loans include troubled debt
restructuring (which involved forgiving a portion of interest or principal on
any loans or making loans at a rate materially less than the market rate). At
March 31, 1998, the Company had no restructured loans.

For the three months period ended March 31, 1998, gross interest income which
would have been recorded had the non-accruing loans been current in accordance
with their original terms amounted to $2,000.
In addition to the non-performing assets set forth in the table above, as of
March 31, 1998, there were no loans with respect to which known information
about the possible credit problems of the borrowers or the cash flows of the
security properties have caused management to have concerns as to the ability of
the borrowers to comply with present loan repayment terms and which may result
in the future inclusion of such items in the non- performing asset categories.
Management has considered the Company's non-performing and "of concern" assets
in establishing its allowance for loan losses.
Recent Developments
The Company declared a cash dividend of $.07 per share, payable on May 22, 1998

Supervision (the OTS) of its intent to repurchase 5% of the outstanding shares

objection by the OTS, the shares will be purchased at prevailing market prices
from time to time depending upon market conditions. The repurchased shares will
become treasury stock.
