NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 2005 (Unaudited) Note 1 - Basis of Presentation OC Financial, Inc. (or the "Company") was formed to serve as the stock holding company for Ohio Central Savings (or the "Bank") as part of the Bank's conversion and reorganization from a mutual holding company structure. On March 31, 2005, the Bank completed its conversion and reorganization, and the Company issued stock to complete its offering. For a further discussion of the Company's formation and operations, see the Company's Registration Statement on Form SB-2, as amended, declared effective on February 11, 2005 (File Number 333-121411). Based upon the foregoing, the Unaudited Interim Financial Statements for periods ending prior to June 30, 2005 filed as part of this quarterly report are those of the Bank and its wholly owned subsidiary, AutoARM(R), LLC ("AutoARM(R)"). All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with instructions for Form 10-QSB. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (all of which are normal and recurring in nature) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three-month and nine-month periods ending June 30, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending September 30, 2005. The Bank's consolidated financial statements, as presented in the Company's Form SB-2, as amended, declared effective on February 11, 2005, should be read in conjunction with these statements. The Company operates in one business segment, banking. Note 2 - Adoption of Plan of Conversion and Reorganization On December 14, 2004, the Board of Directors of the Bank adopted a plan of conversion and reorganization pursuant to which the Bank would reorganize from a mutual holding company structure and become a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company which would sell its common stock to eligible depositors of the Bank in a subscription offering and, if necessary, to the general public if a syndicated community offering is held. Effective February 11, 2005, the Company received approval from both the Securities and Exchange Commission (File No. 333-121411) and the Office of Thrift Supervision to proceed with its planned stock offering equal to the pro forma market value of the Company and its subsidiaries, after giving effect to the offering. The offering closed on March 31, 2005 with gross proceeds of $5.6 million received on the sale of 560,198 common shares. At March 31, 2005, $579,000 of costs for professional fees, printing and mailing expenses, commissions, and related expenses had been incurred and deducted from the gross proceeds of the stock offering. Such costs were paid to third parties unaffiliated with the Company. The net proceeds were used for general corporate purposes, including the purchase of mortgage-backed securities and funding of loans. The Company also provided $448,000 to the newly-established employee stock ownership plan, as discussed in Note 4. 8 Note 3 - Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements, in conformity with accounting principles generally acceptable in the United States of America, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reported periods. Actual results could differ from current estimates. Estimates associated with the allowance for loan losses and the fair values of securities are particularly susceptible to change in the near term. Note 4 - Employee Stock Ownership Plan In connection with the stock offering, the Company established an Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP") for the benefit of its employees. The Company issued 44,815 shares of common stock to the ESOP in exchange for a 20-year note in the amount of $448,150. The interest rate is Prime floating, with annual principal and interest payments due on the last business day of December starting in 2005 and ending in 2024.The loan for the ESOP purchase was obtained from the Company. Shares issued to the ESOP are allocated to ESOP participants based on principal and interest payments made by the ESOP on the loan from the Company. The loan is secured by shares purchased with the loan proceeds and will be repaid by the ESOP with funds from the Bank's contributions to the ESOP and earnings on ESOP assets. As shares are released from collateral, the Company will report compensation expense equal to the current market price of the shares and the shares will become outstanding for earnings-per-share (EPS) computations. Dividends on allocated ESOP shares reduce retained earnings; dividends on unearned ESOP shares reduce accrued interest. Note 5 - Earnings Per Share Earnings (loss) per share is calculated for the period after the offering was closed and the stock issued on March 31, 2005 and only includes earnings (loss) for the three month period ending June 30, 2005. The loss per share for the three months ending June 30, 2005 was $(0.04). Common shares outstanding for purposes of the earnings per share calculation were as follows: Average shares outstanding 560,198 Average unearned ESOP shares (44,815) ----------- Weighted average common shares outstanding, basic and diluted 515,383 =========== The Company currently has no potentially dilutive securities, although a stock option plan and a recognition and retention plan may be adopted in the future and may issue such securities. 9 OC FINANCIAL, INC. ITEM 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS When used in this filing and in future filings by OC Financial, Inc. with the Securities and Exchange Commission, in the Company's press releases or other public or shareholder communications, or in oral statements made with the approval of an authorized executive officer, the words or phrases, "anticipate," "would be," "will allow," "intends to," "will likely result," "are expected to," "will continue," "is anticipated," "estimated," "projected," or similar expressions are intended to identify, "forward looking statements." Such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to changes in economic conditions in OC Financial, Inc.'s market area, changes in policies by regulatory agencies, fluctuations in interest rates, demand for loans in OC Financial, Inc.'s market area, changes in the position of banking regulators on the adequacy of our allowance for loan losses, and competition, all or some of which could cause actual results to differ materially from historical earnings and those presently anticipated or projected. OC Financial, Inc. wishes to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made, and advise readers that various factors, including regional and national economic conditions, substantial changes in levels of market interest rates, credit and other risks of lending and investing activities, and competitive and regulatory factors, could affect OC Financial, Inc.'s financial performance and could cause OC Financial, Inc.'s actual results for future periods to differ materially from those anticipated or projected. OC Financial, Inc. does not undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligation, to update any forward-looking statements to reflect occurrences or unanticipated events or circumstances after the date of such statements. GENERAL On March 31, 2005, Ohio Central Savings became the wholly owned subsidiary of OC Financial, Inc. after completing a conversion and reorganization from the mutual form of organization and a divestiture from Third Federal Savings and Loan Association of Cleveland, MHC ("Third Federal"). The Company's principal business has historically consisted of attracting deposits from the general public and the business community and making loans secured by various types of collateral, including vehicles, real estate and general business assets. The Company is significantly affected by prevailing economic conditions as well as government policies and regulations concerning, among other things, monetary and fiscal affairs, housing and financial institutions. Deposit flows are influenced by a number of factors, including interest rates paid on competing investments, account maturities, fee structures, and level of personal income and savings. Lending activities are influenced by the demand for funds, the number and quality of lenders, and regional economic cycles. Sources of funds for lending activities of the Company include deposits, borrowings, payments on loans, maturities of securities and income provided from operations. The Company's earnings are primarily dependent upon the Company's net interest income, which is the difference between interest income and interest expense. 10 Interest income is a function of the balances of loans and investments outstanding during a given period and the yield earned on such loans and investments. Interest expense is a function of the amount of deposits and borrowings outstanding during the same period and interest rates paid on such deposits and borrowings. The Company's earnings are also affected by the Company's provision for loan losses, service charges, gains from sales of loans, interchange fees, other income, operating expenses and income taxes. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES Certain of our accounting policies are important to the portrayal of our financial condition, since they require management to make difficult, complex or subjective judgments, some of which may relate to matters that are inherently uncertain. Estimates associated with these policies are susceptible to material changes as a result of changes in facts and circumstances. Facts and circumstances which could affect these judgments include, but without limitation, changes in interest rates, changes in the performance of the economy or in the financial condition of borrowers. Management believes that its critical accounting policy is the determination of the allowance for loan losses. OC Financial, Inc.'s and Ohio Central Savings' accounting policies are discussed in detail in Note 1 of the "Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements" contained in its September 30, 2004 consolidated financial statements included in the registration statement on Form SB-2, as amended. The allowance for loan losses represents management's estimate of probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Determining the amount of the allowance is considered a critical accounting estimate because it requires significant judgment about the collectibility of loans and the factors that deserve consideration in estimating probable credit losses. The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses, increased by the provision for loan losses and decreased by charge-offs less recoveries. Management estimates the allowance balance required using the past loan loss experience, the nature and volume of the portfolio, information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values, economic conditions and other factors. Allocations of the allowance may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in management's judgment, should be charged-off. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Management evaluates the adequacy of the allowance at least quarterly. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates that may be susceptible to significant change. The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are individually classified as impaired or loans otherwise classified as special mention, substandard, or doubtful. The general component covers non-classified loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for current factors. Management relies on observable data from internal and external sources to evaluate each of these factors, adjust assumptions and recognize changing conditions to reduce differences between estimated and actual observed losses from period to period. The evaluation of the allowance also takes into consideration the inherent imprecision of loss estimation models and techniques and includes general reserves for probable but undetected losses in categories of loans. While the Company continually refines and enhances the loss estimation models and techniques it uses to determine the appropriateness of the allowance for loan losses, there have been no material substantive changes to such models and techniques compared to prior periods. The portfolio consists primarily of smaller balance homogeneous loans, therefore, 11 impaired loans are analyzed primarily on a pooled basis for purposes of establishing the allowance for loan losses. The allowance for loan losses and related provision expense can also be susceptible to material change as a result of significant changes in individual borrower circumstances on larger dollar loans. Given that the Company's portfolio consists primarily of automobile loans, the variability in the allowance and provision for loan losses would normally be the result of economic and other trends in its lending market area, changes in the quality of its lending staff, collection practices and loan administration. Adverse changes in these areas could result in increases in non-performing loans and loan charge-offs, requiring increases to the provision and allowance for loan losses. BUSINESS STRATEGY Prior to our three and one-half year affiliation with Third Federal Savings and Loan Association of Cleveland ("Third Federal"), Ohio Central Savings was a full service community-based savings institution generating a wide variety of loans for our customers. As a result of our affiliation, and as part of our strategic plan, our potential mortgage loan customers were referred to Third Federal. We also increased our automobile lending program as part of the alliance through marketing efforts with Third Federal. During our affiliation with Third Federal we originated $117.0 million in automobile loans, 80% of which were sold to Third Federal. Also during our three-year affiliation our mortgage portfolio declined by $11.3 million or about 63.1% from $17.9 million to $6.6 million. We have reinitiated our mortgage lending activity within our market areas following our separation from Third Federal and retained automobile loans in our portfolio. During the quarter ended June 30, 2005, $2.1 million of one-to four-family mortgages were funded, with another $500,000 in the pipeline. We anticipate the increased lending activity will result in higher levels of earnings, but there can be no guarantee that we will be able to accomplish this objective. We plan to retain these loans in our portfolio, subject to our interest rate risk and liquidity management needs, in order to improve our earnings. We will also pursue growth in other loan products and deposit accounts within our market areas. We also plan to market home equity loans and referrals for the origination of credit card accounts to an out sourced provider. We will seek deposit accounts in a blend of certificate of deposits, NOW accounts and money market accounts to provide funds for lending activities. Due to the limits of our capital base prior to completing out stock conversion, our ability to increase interest-earning assets had been constrained even though we otherwise had the resources to increase our lending operations. Our profitability was marginal in the last fiscal year. We believe our increased capital levels will allow us to improve our profitability by increasing INTEREST-EARNING assets such as loans and to reduce substantially our reliance on income from securities in our investment portfolio. We do not anticipate the need to hire any new employees, however, in connection with the completion of the conversion and reorganization. We will also continue to pursue our automobile loan origination and servicing business offered to other financial institutions through our AutoARM(R) subsidiary. This subsidiary was formed in August 2003 and is a third party originator and servicer of direct automobile loans for other financial institutions. AutoARM(R) is a program designed by Ohio Central Savings to offer these services to other financial institutions in a manner similar to the method that was developed to be used with Third Federal. Loans originated and funded by AutoARM(R) will not generate a gain on sale to the other institutions but will generate servicing income. We had not actively marketed AutoARM's(R) services until late 2004, as we were building the operational systems to 12 support its operations. As a result, AutoARM(R) had not contracted with any financial institutions as of December 31, 2004. During the quarter ended June 30, 2005, AutoARM(R) generated $37,000 in revenue. During the quarter we entered into two new agreements with AutoARM partners to originate and service auto loans, bringing the total number of institutions to five COMPARISON OF RESULTS OF OPERATION FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2005 AND 2004 GENERAL. Our loss for the three months ended June 30, 2005 was $21,000 compared to $2,400 in income for the three months ended June 30, 2004. A number of factors contributed to the decrease in income, including flat interest income, increased interest expense, decreased fee income, and decreased loan sale gains, partially offset by reduced operating expenses. During the quarter ended June 30, 2005, we made our first auto loan sales to AutoARM partners These sales were very limited in scope during this initial roll-out of the program. Within our own portfolio, we continued replacement of higher interest rate automobile loans with new, lower interest rate loans and replaced the lack of mortgage loan originations with lower yielding mortgage-backed securities also had a negative effect on income. INTEREST INCOME. Interest income increased to $727,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005 from $671,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004. The primary reason for the increase in interest income was an increase of $11,000 in income on Fed Funds sold and an increase of $70,000 in investment income, offset by a $24,000 decrease in loan income. The decrease in loan income was primarily due to declining yields in the portfolio as older, higher rate loans were repaid and replaced by loans at lower rates. The weighted average yield on loans decreased from 5.96% for the three months ended June 30, 2004 to 5.42% for the three months ended June 30, 2005. This decrease was due to decreases in market interest rates and the short-term nature of the majority of our loan portfolio. The weighted average yield on securities increased from 4.47% for the three months ended June 30, 2004 to 4.56% for the three months ended June 30, 2005. Total average interest earning assets increased $5.6 million from the three months ended June 30, 2004 to the three months ended June 30, 2005, and the weighted average yield on interest earning assets declined 9 basis points from 4.95% to 4.86%. As we intend to increase our emphasis on residential mortgage lending, this trend of increasing interest-earning assets may continue. INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense increased $45,000 to $366,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005 from $321,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004. The increase in interest expense was partly due to an increase in average Federal Home Loan Bank advances of $1.5 million. Interest expense on Federal Home Loan Bank advances increased $22,000 to $218,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005 from $197,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004. Federal Home Loan Bank advances were at $16.45 million at June 30, 2005 and at June 30, 2004. The increase in interest expense was also due to an increase in the cost of deposits attributable to the increase in short-term market interest rates during 2004 and early 2005. Interest expense on deposits increased $23,000 to $147,000 for the quarter ending June 30, 2005 from $124,000 for the quarter ending June 30, 2004. Average deposits increased by $865,000 and the average cost increased 22 basis points to 1.79% for the quarter ending June 30, 2005 from 1.57% for the quarter ending June 30, 2004. As interest rates stabilize or increase, we expect interest expense will increase as our cost of interest bearing liabilities increase through higher rates on existing deposits 13 and on new deposits. Our average weighted cost of funds was 2.88% for the three months ended June 30, 2005 compared to 2.67% for the three months ended June 30, 2004. NET INTEREST INCOME. Net interest income increased $11,000 to $361,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005 from $350,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004. The decrease in net interest income is primarily the result of increasing interest rates for deposits and a continuing shift to loans from investments as described above. Our net interest margin was 2.42% for the three months ended June 30, 2005 compared to 2.58% for the three months ended June 30, 2004. PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES. The Company establishes provisions for loan losses, which are charged to operations, at a level required to reflect probable and estimable credit losses in the loan portfolio. In evaluating the level of the allowance for loan losses, management considers historical loss experience, the types of loans and the amount of loans in the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect borrowers' ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral, and prevailing economic conditions. Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans, such as automobile loans, residential real estate and other consumer loans, are evaluated in the aggregate using historical loss factors adjusted for current economic conditions and other relevant data. Larger non-homogeneous loans such as commercial loans for which management has concerns about the borrowers' ability to repay are evaluated individually, and specific allowances are provided for such loans when necessary. Based on management's evaluation of the above factors, a provision was made for the three months ended June 30, 2005 in the amount of $12,000 compared to $5,000 made for the three months ended June 30, 2004. The increase in provision for loan losses is primarily attributable to increased loan levels as discussed above. The amount of general allowance allocations made for smaller balance homogeneous loans decreased during the three months ended June 30, 2005 primarily resulting from the performance of the portfolio, actual losses and recoveries. Loan charge-offs were $2,000, for the three months ended June 30, 2005, down from $20,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004. Recoveries were $700 for the three months ended June 30, 2005, compared to $5,000 for the three month period ended June 30, 2004. While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, future loan loss provisions may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the allowance for loan losses and may require us to recognize additional provisions based on their judgment of information available to them at the time of their examination. The allowance for loan losses as of June 30, 2005 was maintained at a level that represents management's best estimate of probable incurred losses in the loan portfolio. In addition, management evaluated THE LIKELIHOOD OF LOSSES AND THE COVERAGE OF POTENTIAL INHERENT LOSSES IN THE PORTFOLIO TO MAKE THE ADDITIONAL PROVISION. NON-INTEREST INCOME. Non-interest income decreased $41,000 to $169,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005 from $210,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004. The overall decrease in non-interest income was primarily due to lower fee income and lower automobile loan sales as a result of decreased loan sales. NON-INTEREST EXPENSE. Non-interest expenses of $551,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 were relatively unchanged from the quarter ended June 30, 2004. 14 INCOME TAX EXPENSE. Income tax benefit for the three months ended June 30, 2005 was $11,000, down from an expense of $1,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004. The Company's effective federal income tax rate was 34% and 36% for the periods ending June 30, 2005 and 2004 respectively. COMPARISON OF RESULTS OF OPERATION FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2005 AND 2004 GENERAL. Our loss for the nine months ended June 30, 2005 was $43,000 compared to $55,000 in income for the nine months ended June 30, 2004. Our loss resulted primarily from the change in the volume of loans sold to Third Federal, decreasing to $2.3 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2005 from $20.4 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2004. This represents a reduction in auto loans sold of $18.1 million. During the quarter ended March 31, 2005, the sale of the Visa credit card portfolio to a third party was negotiated and completed. A pre-tax gain of $92,000 was recognized for this one-time event. Pre-tax gain from loan sales was $107,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2005, compared to $266,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2004, a decrease of $159,000. In addition, continued replacement of higher interest rate automobile loans with new, lower interest rate loans and replacing the lack of mortgage loan originations with lower yielding mortgage-backed securities also had a negative effect on income. In the quarter ending June 30, 2005 we sold our portfolio of available for sale securities and paid off a Federal Home Loan Bank advance that we had used to fund in part the purchase of securities. The securities were sold for a modest gain and were liquidated based on management's evaluation of the return on the investment compared to the interest rate risk contained given the current interest rate environment. INTEREST INCOME. Interest income increased $32,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2005 but remained at about the same $2.0 million level for the nine months ended June 30, 2004. A $148,000 increase in investment income and $25,000 increase in other interest income to $39,000 from $49,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2005 and June 30, 2004, respectively, more than offset the decrease in loan interest income. The decrease in loan income was primarily due to declining yields in the portfolio as older, higher rate loans were repaid and replaced by loans at lower rates. The weighted average yield on loans decreased from 9.35% for the nine months ended June 30, 2004 to 8.06% for the nine months ended June 30, 2005. The weighted average yield on securities decreased from 6.63% to 6.44% for the nine month periods ended June 30, 2004 and June 30, 2005, respectively. Total average interest earning assets increased $3.1 million from the nine months ended June 30, 2004 to the nine months ended June 30, 2005, and the weighted average yield on interest earning assets declined 64 basis points from 7.66% to 7.02%. As we intend to increase our emphasis on residential mortgage lending, this trend of increasing interest- earning assets may continue. INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense increased $102,000 to $1.1 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2005 from $1.0 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2004. The increase in interest expense was primarily due to an increase in Federal Home Loan Bank advances of $3.0 million for a brief period during the nine months ended June 30, 2005. Interest expense on Federal Home Loan Bank advances increased $49,000 to $631,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2005 from $582,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2004. Federal Home Loan Bank advance balances were $16.5 million at June 30, 2005 and June 30, 2004. 15 As interest rates stabilize or increase, we expect interest expense will increase as our cost of interest bearing liabilities increase through higher rates on existing deposits and on new deposits. Our average weighted cost of funds was 4.14% for the nine months ended June 30, 2005 compared to 4.12% for the nine months ended June 30, 2004. Interest expense on deposits increased $54,000 to $428,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2005 from $374,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2004. Our weighted average cost of deposits was 2.60% for the nine months ended June 30, 2005 compared to 2.47% for the nine months ended June 30, 2004. The increase in interest expense was attributable to increases in interest rates paid on deposit accounts and borrowings along with an increase in average interest bearing liabilities of $4.3 million for the nine months June 30, 2005 compared to the nine months ended June 30, 2004. NET INTEREST INCOME. Net interest income decreased $70,000 to $1.0 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2005 from $1.1 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2004. The decrease in net interest income is primarily the result of declining interest rates and a continuing shift from loans to investments as described above. Our net interest margin was 3.39% for the nine months ended June 30, 2005 compared to 4.02% for the nine months ended June 30, 2004. PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES. As discussed above, we establish provisions for loan losses, which are charged to operations, at a level required to reflect probable and estimable credit losses in the loan portfolio. Based on management's evaluation of these factors, a $12,000 provision was made for the nine months ended June 30, 2005 compared to $35,000 made for the nine months ended June 30, 2004. The decrease in provision for loan losses is primarily attributable to decreased loan levels as discussed above. The amount of general allowance allocations made for smaller balance homogeneous loans decreased during the nine months ended June 30, 2005 primarily resulting from the performance of the portfolio, actual losses and recoveries. Loan charge-offs were $65,000, including $23,000 in Visa fraud losses charged off in connection with the Visa portfolio sale described earlier, for the nine months ended June 30, 2005, up from $39,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2004. Recoveries were $3,000 during the nine months period ended June 30, 2005, compared to $20,000 recovered during the nine months period ended June 30, 2004. While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, future loan loss provisions may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions specific to the portfolio. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the allowance for loan losses and may require us to recognize additional provisions based on their judgment of information available to them at the time of their examination. The allowance for loan losses as of June 30, 2005 was maintained at a level that represents management's best estimate of probable incurred losses in the loan portfolio. As noted above, the sale of the Visa portfolio was completed during the nine months ended June 30, 2005 with accumulated fraud losses charged off due to all recovery alternatives being exhausted. These probable incurred losses were already incorporated into previous provision decisions made by management. Thus, the sale of the Visa portfolio removed this source of further probable incurred losses from the provision analysis for the period ended March 31, 2005. In addition, management evaluated the increase in non-performing loans and ascertained that given the borrowers' situations and collateral that no additional provision was necessary during the period. NON-INTEREST INCOME. Non-interest income decreased $140,000 to $601,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2005 from $741,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2004. The overall decrease in non-interest income was primarily due to lower auto loan sales to Third Federal, partially offset by the sale of the Visa loan portfolio as discussed above. 16 NON-INTEREST EXPENSE. Non-interest expense decreased $37,000 to $1.6 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2005 compared to the nine months ended June 30, 2004. With the reduction in loan volume, all categories of operating expense other than compensation and audit decreased compared to the prior period. The increases in audit and compensation expense were the result of our proposed separation from Third Federal. The proposed transaction required an audit of Ohio Central Savings separate from the audit of Third Federal. Increased compensation expenses are being incurred due to the termination of Third Federal benefit plans for our employees. INCOME TAX EXPENSE. Income tax benefit for the nine months ended June 30, 2005 was $22,000. For the nine months ended June 30, 2004, income tax expense was $30,000. Ohio Central Savings' effective federal income tax rate would have been 35% or was 35% for the periods ending June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION FROM SEPTEMBER 30, 2004 TO JUNE 30, 2005. GENERAL. Total assets increased by $4.2 million, or 7.6%, to $59.8 million at June 30, 2005 from $55.6 million at September 30, 2004. The increase was primarily the result of an increase in investments held to maturity of $3.3 million and first mortgage loans of $2.6 million, partially offset by a decrease in federal funds sold of $1.7 million. The increase in total assets was funded by an increase in customer deposits of $411,000 and a net increase in shareholders' equity of $3.67 million. ASSETS. Our loan portfolio increased $2.1 million from $26.1 million at September 30, 2004 to $28.2 million at June 30, 2005. Within the loan category, a $600,000 decrease is attributable to the sale of our Visa loan portfolio, while mortgage loans increased $2.4 million and all other categories increased $274,000. Our lending strategy changed significantly during the three year affiliation with Third Federal, emphasizing the origination of auto loans and decreasing originations of mortgage loans. With the divestiture from Third Federal, we have resumed our mortgage lending activity. As a result, one- to four-family first mortgage loans were increased $2.6 million from $6.6 million at September 30, 2004 to $9.2 million at June 30, 2005. The allowance for loan losses was $203,000 at June 30, 2005 or 0.72% of loans, compared to $231,000, or 0.87% of loans at September 30, 2004. The allowance for loan losses consists of general allowance allocations made for pools of homogeneous loans and specific allowances on individual loans for which management has significant concerns regarding the borrowers' ability to repay the loans in accordance with the terms of the loans. Non-performing loans totaled $53,000 at June 30, 2005 and $39,000 at September 30, 2004, respectively. In determining the amount of allowance for loan loss allocations needed for non-performing loans, management has considered expected future borrower cash flows and the fair value of underlying collateral. The amount of allowance for loan losses allocated to individual loan relationships at June 30, 2005, decreased to $42,000 from $77,000 at September 30, 2004. DEPOSITS. Total deposits increased by $411,000, or 1.3%, to $32.7 million at June 30, 2005 from $32.3 million at September 30, 2004. Checking accounts decreased $568,000 while time deposits increased $1.9 million, savings deposits decreased $413,000, and money market accounts decreased $471,000. The increase in deposits was a result of our efforts to expand our customer base in existing markets through improved products and marketing. The number of deposit accounts has declined in recent years as we have focused on attracting larger depositors, and we have implemented fee programs that discourage accounts with very low balances. We plan to continue this strategy. 17 BORROWINGS. Federal Home Loan Bank advance balances were $16.5 million at June 30, 2005 and September 30, 2004. Additional Federal Home Loan Bank advances were used to fund investment portfolio growth to improve net interest income, and were repaid during the three months ending June 30, 2005. We expect that Federal Home Loan Bank advances will continue to provide the Company with a significant additional funding source to meet the needs of its lending activities. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY. Total consolidated shareholders' equity for OC Financial, Inc. increased $3.6 million, or 97.8%, to $7.4 million at June 30, 2005 from $3.8 million at September 30, 2004. The increase in equity was the result of the completion of the stock offering for OC Financial, Inc. as part of the conversion and reorganization of Ohio Central Savings. Gross proceeds from the offering were $5.6 million. Offering expenses paid by Ohio Central Savings of $579,000 through June 30, 2005 were subtracted from the offering proceeds, along with $448,000 in unearned ESOP shares excluded from equity until the shares are earned. CAPITAL RESOURCES. At June 30, 2005, capital at Ohio Central Savings totaled $6.9 million. Management monitors the capital levels of Ohio Central Savings to provide for current and future business opportunities and to meet regulatory guidelines for "well-capitalized" institutions. Ohio Central Savings is required by the Office of Thrift Supervision to meet minimum capital adequacy requirements. Ohio Central Savings' actual and required levels of capital as reported to the Office of Thrift Supervision at June 30, 2005 are as follows: TO BE WELL CAPITALIZED UNDER FOR CAPITAL PROMPT CORRECTIVE ACTUAL ADEQUACY PURPOSES ACTION PROVISIONS ---------------------- ---------------------- ---------------------- AMOUNT RATIO AMOUNT RATIO AMOUNT RATIO ---------- --------- ---------- --------- ---------- --------- (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) As of June 30, 2005 - ------------------- Total capital (to risk weighted assets)......................... $7,106 24.04% $2,365 8.0% $2,956 10.0% Tier 1 (core) capital (to risk weighted assets)................ $6,903 23.35% $1,183 4.0% $1,774 6.0% Tier 1 (core) capital (to adjusted total assets).......... $6,903 11.55% $2,391 4.0% $2,989 5.0% LIQUIDITY Management maintains a liquidity position that it believes will adequately provide funding for loan demand and deposit run-off that may occur in the normal course of business. The Company relies on a number of different sources in order to meet its potential liquidity demands. The primary sources are increases in deposit accounts and cash flows from loan payments and the securities portfolio. In addition to these primary sources of funds, management has several secondary sources available to meet potential funding requirements. At June 30, 2005, Ohio Central Savings had additional borrowing capacity of $11.0 million with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati. Additionally, Ohio Central Savings has access to the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland discount window for borrowing. The available line at the discount window is $14.2 million. 18 Our stock offering provided significant additional liquidity and capital resources. As our liquidity positions have historically been maintained to provide for loan demand and deposit run-off, the stock offering proceeds may provide excess liquidity in the near term. The additional liquidity and capital resources from the stock offering will help provide for the future growth of the Company. ITEM 3 - Controls and Procedures An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of June 30, 2005. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer, have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and regulations and are operating in an effective manner. No change in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15(d)-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. 19 OC FINANCIAL, INC.
