Basis of Presentation: The unaudited consolidated financial information for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 includes the results of operations of HFB Financial Corporation (the "Corporation") and its wholly owned subsidiary Home Federal Bank, Federal Savings Bank ("Home Federal" or the "Bank"). HFB Financial Corporation acquired 100 percent of the Bank's stock during the completion of the Bank's conversion from mutual to stock form on December 28, 1992. The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial statements and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. It is suggested that these statements and notes be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Bank's annual report for the year ended June 30, 1996 on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, the financial information reflects all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for such periods but should not be considered as indicative of results for a full year. 2. Nonperforming Loans and Problem Assets Management reviews the Bank's loans on a regular basis. After residential mortgage loans become past due more that 90 days, the Bank generally establishes an allowance for uncollectible interest for the amount by which the principal balance and uncollected interest exceeds 90% of the appraised value of the property. Commercial and multi-family real estate loans generally are placed on non-accrual status if the borrower is placed in bankruptcy proceedings, or management concludes that payment in full is not likely. Consumer and commercial loans generally are charged off, or an allowance is established for any expected loss after they become more than 90 days past due. The Bank accrues interest on delinquent loans past due more than 90 days without establishing a reserve when management concludes such action is warranted, such as in the event the loan is exceptionally well collateralized or the borrower establishes the temporary nature of the delinquency. Loans are charged off when management concludes that they are uncollectible. The Bank's collection procedures provide that when a loan becomes past due 30 days, the borrower is contacted in person or by telephone or mail, and payment is requested. If payment is not promptly received, the borrower is contacted again, and efforts are made to formulate an affirmative plan to cure the delinquency. After a loan becomes past due 90 days the Bank generally initiates legal proceedings. Loans delinquent 90 days or greater and still accruing are managed based on a work out plan developed by the Bank. Interest accrues based on the work out plan and the value of the collateral when collateral value is more than sufficient to fully cover the loan balance. Interest is not accrued on loans in the process of foreclosure. 8 The following sets forth information with respect to the Bank's non-performing assets at December 31, 1996 and June 30, 1996: (Dollars in thousands) December 31, June 30, 1996 1996 ------------ -------- Loans accounted for on a nonaccrual basis (1) $- $- --- --- Accruing loans which are contractually past due 90 days or more: (1) Real estate $206 $657 Consumer 3 3 Commercial - - ---- ---- $209 $660 ==== ==== Total of nonaccrual and 90 days or more past due loans $209 $660 Real estate owned 216 - ---- ---- Total non-performing assets $425 $660 ==== ==== Nonaccrual and 90 days or more past due loans as a percentage of total loans, net .21% .69% ==== ==== Nonaccrual and 90 days or more past due loans as a percentage of total assets .14% .45% ==== ==== Non-performing assets as a percentage of total assets .28% .45% ==== ==== (1) Interest on delinquent loans is accrued to income to the extent considered collectible. Nonaccrual loans did not have a material effect on the Bank's interest income for the periods ended December 31, 1996 and June 30, 1996. The Bank has a potential problem commercial real estate loan at December 31, 1996. The carrying amount of the loan is approximately $1.4 million. The property is not generating sufficient cash flow to fund debt service payments. The borrower was unable to fund the January, 1997 payment due and the Bank funded $131,000 in working capital loans secured by a second mortgage on the properties. 9 The following sets forth the activity in the Bank's allowance for loan losses for the six months ended December 31, 1996: (Dollars in thousands) Balance at June 30, 1996 $671 Charge offs: Domestic: Commercial, financial and agricultural 68 Real estate-construction - Real estate-mortgage - Installment loans to individuals 2 --- 70 --- Recoveries: Domestic: Commercial, financial and agricultural - Real estate-construction - Real estate-mortgage - Installment loans to individuals - --- - --- Net charge offs (Recoveries): 70 Additions charged to operations 87 --- Balance December 31, 1996 $688 ==== Ratio of net charge offs during the period to average loans outstanding during the period .07% ==== 10 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations General: HFB Financial Corporation, a Tennessee Corporation, was formed in September 1992 at the direction of Home Federal Bank, Federal Savings Bank for the purpose of becoming a holding company for the Bank as part of its conversion from mutual to stock form ("the "Conversion"). Prior to the Conversion, the Corporation did not engage in any material operations and at December 31, 1996, its primary operation was its investment in the common stock of the Bank. The Bank is principally engaged in the business of accepting deposits from the general public and originating permanent loans which are secured by one-to- four family residential properties located in its market area. The Bank also originates consumer loans and commercial real estate loans, and maintains a substantial investment portfolio of mortgage-backed and other investment securities. The operations of Home Federal, and savings institutions generally, are significantly influenced by general economic conditions and the monetary and fiscal policies of government regulatory agencies. Deposit flows and costs of funds are influenced by interest rates on competing investments and prevailing market rates of interest. Lending activities are affected by the demand for financing real estate and other types of loans, which in turn are influenced by the interest rates at which such financing may be offered and other factors related to loan demand and the availability of funds. Just as the Bank's operations are influenced by regulatory authorities, so are its liquidity levels and capital resources. As of December 31, 1996, management is not aware of any current recommendations by the regulatory authorities, which if implemented, would have a material effect on the Bank's operations, liquidity or resources. Asset/Liability Management Key components of a successful asset/liability strategy are the monitoring and managing of interest rate sensitivity of both the interest-earning asset and interest-bearing liability portfolios. Home Federal has employed various strategies intended to minimize the adverse affect of interest rate risk on future operations by providing a better match between the interest rate sensitivity of its assets and liabilities. In particular, the Bank's strategies are intended to stabilize net interest income for the long-term by protecting its interest rate spread against increases in interest rates. Such strategies include the origination of adjustable-rate mortgage loans secured by one-to-four family residential real estate and the origination of consumer and other loans with greater interest rate sensitivities than long-term, fixed-rate residential mortgage loans. Although customers typically prefer fixed-rate mortgage loans in a low interest rate environment, Home Federal has been successful in originating adjustable-rate loans in recent years. In addition, the Bank has used excess funds to invest in various short-term investments including mortgage-backed securities with terms of seven years or less, U.S. Government Treasury and Agency securities with terms of ten years or less and other short- term investments. Asset/liability management in the form of structuring cash instruments provides greater flexibility to adjust exposure to interest rates. During periods of high interest rates, management believes it is prudent to offer competitive rates on short-term deposits and less competitive rates for long- term liabilities. This posture allows the Bank to benefit quickly from declines in interest rates. Likewise, offering more competitive rates on long-term deposits during the low interest rate periods allows the Bank to extend the repricing and/or maturity of its liabilities thus reducing its exposure to rising interest rates. Financial Condition The Corporation's assets increased by 4.22% to $152.4 million at December 31, 1996 compared to $146.2 million at June 30, 1996. The majority of this increase is reflected in investment securities and loans receivable, 11 which was primarily funded by an increase in deposits and short term borrowings. Cash and cash equivalents increased by $300,000 to $5.0 million at December 31, 1996 from $4.7 million at June 30, 1996. This increase was primarily funded by increased deposits and borrowings in the quarter ended December 31, 1996. The Bank's asset composition continues to change due to volatility in interest rates, aggressive competition and loan demand. The most significant change in the asset mix is reflected in the Bank's loan portfolio. In the current interest rate environment, a substantial portion of loans originated were adjustable-rate residential mortgages. During the six months ended December 31, 1996, the Bank originated $6.9 million in mortgages. Total loans receivable, net increased 3.84% to $99.7 million at December 31, 1996 compared to $96.0 million at June 30, 1996. The Bank augments its lending activities and increases its asset yields by investing in mortgage-backed securities "MBSs " and U.S. Government securities. During the six months ended December 31, 1996, the investment and MBS portfolio's increased $1.8 million to $43.6 million from $41.8 million at June 30, 1996. During this period, management purchased $6.5 million in investment securities and MBSs funded primarily by proceeds from called, maturing and the sale of investment securities and principal collected on MBSs. The remaining increase of $1.8 million was funded with excess liquidity. In order to effectively manage these portfolios, the available for sale "AFS" portfolios are maintained at approximately 50% of the total investment and MBS portfolios. At December 31, 1996, investment securities, AFS and MBSs, AFS were $21.7 million with a net unrealized loss of $91,000. At December 31, 1996, the balance in real estate owned was $216,000 compared to $0 at June 30, 1996. The $216,000 balance represents an interest in a commercial building in Nicholasville, Kentucky, which was obtained through foreclosure during the quarter ended December 31, 1996. Management expects to sell this property within the next six months with no loss. Total deposits increased by $4.2 million to $130.9 million at December 31, 1996 from $126.7 million at June 30, 1996. The deposit mix continues to change with low cost savings and money market deposit accounts shifting into higher rate certificates of deposit ("CDs"). During the six months ended December 31, 1996, CDs increased $3.2 million and NOW accounts increased $1.3 million, while passbook savings and money market deposit accounts decreased by $248,000. Advances from borrowers for taxes and insurance decreased by $33,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1996 due to the timing of tax and insurance payments. Accrued expenses and other liabilities increased by $73,000 during the six months ended December 31, 1996 primarily as the result of the timing of payments of Kentucky saving and loan taxes and other expenses. Income taxes payable increased by $125,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1996, due to the timing of tax payments. Certain components of stockholders' equity increased during the six months ended December 31, 1996 as the result of employee stock options exercised and a reduction of the Employee Stock Ownership Plan debt. Also, 8,850 shares of treasury stock were purchased at a cost of $205,000 during the six month period ended December 31, 1996.
