MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS MSB Financial, Inc. was formed as a Delaware corporation in September 1994 to act as the holding company for Marshall Savings Bank, F.S.B. upon the completion of Marshall Savings' conversion from the mutual to the stock form. MSB Financial received approval from the Office of Thrift Supervision to acquire all of the common stock of Marshall Savings to be outstanding upon completion of the conversion. The conversion was completed on February 6, 1995. On December 8, 1998, shareholders approved a proposal to reincorporate MSB Financial from the State of Delaware to the State of Maryland. The following discussion compares the consolidated financial condition of MSB Financial and Marshall Savings at December 31, 1999 to June 30, 1999 and the results of operations for the period ended December 31, 1999 with the same period ended December 31, 1998. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated condensed financial statements and footnotes included herein. References in this 10-QSB to "we", "us" and "our" refer to MSB Financial and/or Marshall Savings as the contex requires. FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS DISCLOSURE We may from time to time make written or oral "forward-looking statements". These forward-looking statements may be contained in Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB and the exhibits, filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and in other communications by us, which are made in good faith pursuant to the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The words "may", "could", "should, "would", "believe", "anticipate", "estimate", "expect", "intend", "plan", and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include statements about our beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, expectations, anticipations, estimates and intentions, that are subject to significant risks and uncertainties. The following factors, many of which are subject to change based on various other factors beyond our control, could cause our financial performance to differ materially from the plans, objectives, expectations, estimates and intentions expressed in such forward-looking statements: o the strength of the United States economy in general and the strength of the local economies in which we conduct our operations; o the effects of, and changes in, trade, monetary and fiscal policies and laws, including interest rate policies of the Federal Reserve Board; o inflation, interest rate, market and monetary fluctuations; o the timely development of and acceptance of our new products and services and the perceived overall value of these products and services by users, including the features, pricing and quality compared to competitors' products and services; o the willingness of users to substitute competitors' products and services for our products and services; o our success in gaining regulatory approval of our products and services, when required; o the impact of changes in financial services' laws and regulations (including laws concerning taxes, banking, securities and insurance); o the impact of technological changes; o acquisitions; o changes in consumer spending and savings habits; and o our success at managing the risks involved in our business. The list of important factors stated above is not exclusive. We do not undertake to update any forward-looking statement, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time by or on behalf of MSB Financial or Marshall Savings. 7 FINANCIAL CONDITION Total assets increased $4.6 million to $89.0 million from June 30, 1999 to December 31, 1999. Net loans, including loans held for sale, increased by $4.5 million or 5.8% for the period, due primarily to the strong demand for mortgage loans, especially residential 1-4 family construction loans, in our market areas. This increase was primarily funded by an increase of $4.4 million in Federal Home Loan Bank advances. Total liabilities increased $4.2 million to $75.5 million from June 30, 1999 to December 31, 1999. This increase primarily resulted from the increase in Federal Home Loan Bank advances discussed above. We also experienced increases in deposits of $471,000 and in accrued interest payable of $22,000. Offsetting the above increases in liabilities for the period were decreases in accrued expenses and other liabilities of $220,000 and advance payments by borrowers for taxes and insurance of $487,000. The decrease in advance payments by borrowers for taxes and insurance was primarily due to property tax bills due during the month of December. Net income, offset by the payment of dividends on common stock and repurchases of our common stock resulted in a net increase in shareholders' equity of $385,000. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS GENERAL. Our results of operations depend primarily upon the level of net interest income, which is the difference between the average yield earned on loans and securities, interest-bearing deposits, and other interest-earning assets, and the average rate paid on deposits and borrowed funds, as well as competitive factors that influence interest rates, loan demand, and deposit flows. Our results of operations are also dependent upon the level of our non-interest income, including fee income and service charges, and the level of our non-interest expense, including general and administrative expenses. We, like other financial institutions, are subject to interest rate risk to the degree that our interest-bearing liabilities mature or reprice at different times, or on a different basis, than our interest-earning assets. NET INCOME. Net income for the three months ended December 31, 1999 was $224,000, 20.0% lower than net income of $280,000 for same period ended December 31, 1998. Net income for the six month period ended December 31, 1999 was $498,000, 12.0% lower than net income of $565,000 for the same period in 1998. Reasons for the declines in net income are discussed in detail below. NET INTEREST INCOME. Net interest income decreased $16,000, or 1.8%, to $880,000 for the three month period ended December 31, 1999, as compared to the same three month period in 1998. For the six month period ended December 31, 1999, net interest income decreased $61,000, or 3.4%, to $1.7 million. The above decreases in net interest income were attributed to increases in interest expense for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 1999 of $37,000 and $66,000, respectively, when compared to the same periods ended December 31, 1998. The increases in interest expense were primarily a result of increases in interest paid on Federal Home Bank advances, due to increased advance balances. For the three and six month periods ended December 31, 1999 Federal Home Loan Bank advance interest increased $37,000 and $60,000, respectively, when compared to the same periods ended December 31, 1998. Contributing to the decrease in net interest income mentioned above was a decrease in the weighted average yield on the loan portfolio for the three month period ended December 31, 1999 of 55 basis points to 8.04% from 8.59% for the same period ended December 31, 1998. For the six month period ended December 31, 1999 the weighted average yield on the loan portfolio was 8.10%, compared to 8.65% for the same period ended December 31, 1998, a decrease of 55 basis points. The decreases in weighted average yields for both the three and six month periods were primarily the result of adjustable rate mortgage loans renewing at lower rates. The recent increase in mortgage rates will not affect our adjustable rate mortgage loan portfolio until renewals scheduled for January 2000. Also contributing to the decrease in the weighted average yield for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 1999 as compared to December 31, 1998 were decreases of $63,000 and $92,000, respectively, in loan fee income due to a decrease in loan sales and loan originations during the periods ended December 31, 1999. PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES. The provision for loan losses is a result of our periodic analysis of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. The provision for loan losses remained at $18,000 for the three month period ended December 31, 1999 as compared to the three month period ended December 31, 1998, due to our continuing reassessment of losses inherent in the loan portfolio. At December 31, 1999, the allowance for loan losses totaled $490,000 or 0.59% of net loans receivable and 138% of total non-performing loans. At June 30, 1999, our allowance for loan losses totaled $452,000, or 0.58% of net loans receivable and 116% of total non-performing loans. 8 We establishe an allowance for loan losses based on an analysis of risk factors in the loan portfolio. This analysis includes the evaluation of concentrations of credit, past loss experience, current economic conditions, amount and composition of the loan portfolio, estimated fair value of underlying collateral, loan commitments outstanding, delinquencies, and other factors. Because we have had extremely low loan losses during our history, we also consider loss experience of similar portfolios in comparable lending markets. Accordingly, the calculation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses was not based directly on our level of non-performing assets. As of December 31, 1999, the Company's non-performing assets, consisting of nonaccrual loans and accruing loans 90 days or more delinquent, totaled $355,000, or 0.43% of total loans, compared to $390,000, or 0.52% of total loans as of June 30, 1999, a decrease of $35,000. Loans greater than 90 days past due, and other designated loans of concern, are placed on non-accrual status, unless it is determined that the loans are well collateralized and in the process of collection. There was no real estate owned at December 31, 1999. We will continue to monitor the allowance for loan losses and make future additions to the allowance through the provision for loan losses as economic conditions dictate. Although we maintain allowance for loan losses at a level which we consider 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. In addition, our determination as to the amount of the allowance for loan losses is subject to review by the Office of Thrift Supervision and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, as part of their examination process, which may result in the establishment of an additional allowance based upon their judgment of the information available to them at the time of their examination. NONINTEREST INCOME. Noninterest income consists primarily of gains on the sale of loans, loan servicing fees, service fees on deposit accounts and other fees. Noninterest income decreased $92,000 during the three month period ended December 31, 1999 compared to the three month period ended December 31, 1998. For the six month period ended December 31, 1999, noninterest income decreased $130,000 compared the six month period ended December 31, 1998. The decrease during the three and six month periods ended December 31, 1999 were primarily due to a decrease in gains on the sale of loans of $89,000 and $135,000, respectively, due to decreased sales of mortgage loans during these periods. The sale of mortgage loans deceased during the three and six month periods due to an increase in mortgage rates which resulted in a lower demand for one- to four-family fixes rate mortgage loan products, which is the only mortgage loan product currently sold. There was also a decrease during the six month period ending December 31, 1999 in profit on the sale of real estate owned of $24,000 as compared to the same period in 1998. Offsetting the above mentioned decreases were increases in loan servicing fees of $12,000 and deposit account service fees of $4,000. NONINTEREST EXPENSE. Noninterest expense was $643,000 for the three month period ended December 31, 1999 compared to $667,000 reported for the same prior year period, a decrease of $24,000 or 3.6%. Noninterest expense for the six month period ended December 31, 1999 was $1.2 million compared to $1.3 million for the same period in 1998, a decrease of $79,000 or 6.1%. Decreases in noninterest expense for the six month period ended December 31, 1999 included decreases in data processing expense of $30,000, due to a prior period rebate from our data processor, in professional fees of $38,000, a result of our reincorporation from a Delaware into a Maryland corporation during the 1998 period, and in our correspondent bank charges of $8,000. The largest component on noninterest expense, salaries and employee benefits, decreased $9,000 and $10,000 for the three month and six month periods ended December 31, 1999, respectively, compared to the same periods during 1998. The above mentioned decreases in noninterest expense were offset by a provision of $38,000 to adjust loans held for sale to the lower of cost or market during the six month period ended December 31, 1999. FEDERAL INCOME TAX EXPENSE. Federal income tax expense decreased $29,000 and $44,000 for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 1999 compared to the same periods in 1998 due to the decrease in net income. MSB Financial's effective tax rate remains at approximately 34%. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Our principal sources of funds are deposits, principal and interest repayments on loans, sales of loans, interest-bearing deposits and securities available for sale. While scheduled loan repayments and maturing investments are relatively predictable, deposit flows and early loan prepayments are more influenced by interest rates, general economic conditions and competition. 9 Federal regulations require Marshall Savings to maintain minimum levels of liquid assets. The required percentage has varied from time to time based upon economic conditions and savings flows. The percentage is currently 4% 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 other securities and obligations generally having remaining maturities of less than five years. Marshall Savings has maintained its liquidity ratio at levels in excess of those required. At December 31, 1999, the Bank's liquidity ratio was 4.26%. We use our liquidity resources principally to meet ongoing commitments, to fund maturing certificates of deposit and deposit withdrawals and to meet operating expenses. We anticipate that there will be sufficient funds available to meet current loan commitments. At December 31, 1999, we had outstanding commitments to extend credit, which amounted to $5.3 million (including $3.9 million in available home equity lines of credit). At December 31, 1999, there was $28.3 million in advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis outstanding. We believe that loan repayments and other sources of funds, will be adequate to meet our foreseeable liquidity needs. Federal insured savings institutions are required to maintain a minimum level of regulatory capital. The Office of Thrift Supervision has established capital standards, including a tangible capital requirement, a leverage ratio (or core capital) requirement and a risk-based capital requirement applicable to such savings associations. As of December 31, 1999, Marshall Savings had tangible capital and Tier 1 (core) capital of $10.2 million, or 11.5% or adjusted total assets, which was approximately $8.9 million and $7.6 million above the minimum requirements of 1.5% and 3.0%, respectively, of the adjusted total assets in effect on that date. As of December 31, 1999, we had Tier 1 (core) capital of $10.2 million, or 11.5% of average total assets, which was approximately $6.7 million above the minimum requirement of 4.0% of average total assets in effect on that date. On December 31, 1999, we had risk-based capital of $10.7 million (including $10.2 million in core capital), or 19.6% of risk-weighted assets of $54.5 million. This amount was $6.3 million above the 8.0% requirement in effect on that date. 10 PART II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS None. Item 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES None. Item 3.
