Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

1.  
Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements presented in this quarterly report include the accounts of Security Federal Corporation, a South Carolina corporation (the “Company”), and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Security Federal Bank (the “Bank”), a state chartered commercial bank, which is headquartered in Aiken, South Carolina.  The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; therefore, they do not include all disclosures necessary for a complete presentation of financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.  Such statements are unaudited but, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature and necessary for a fair presentation of results for the selected interim periods.  Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted. Therefore, these consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes included in the Company’s 2011 Annual Report to Stockholders, which was filed as an exhibit to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2011 (“2011 10-K”), when reviewing interim financial statements.  The results of operations for the three month and nine month periods ended December 31, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year.

2.  
Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Security Federal Bank, and the Bank’s wholly owned subsidiaries, Security Federal Insurance, Inc. (“SFINS”) and Security Financial Services Corporation (“SFSC”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. SFINS was formed during fiscal 2002 and began operating during the December 2001 quarter.  SFINS is an insurance agency offering auto, business, health, and home insurance.  SFINS has a wholly owned subsidiary, Collier Jennings Financial Corporation which has as subsidiaries Collier Jennings Inc., The Auto Insurance Store Inc., and Security Federal Premium Pay Plans Inc (the “Collier-Jennings Companies”). SFSC was inactive for several years. During the quarter ended December 31, 2010, it was reactivated and utilitzed to hold and operate a repossessed hotel located in Hardeeville, South Carolina. Subsequently, in fiscal 2012 the hotel was sold and the subsidiary once again returned to inactive status.

The Company has a wholly owned subsidiary, Security Federal Statutory Trust (the “Trust”), which issued and sold fixed and floating rate capital securities of the Trust.  However, under current accounting guidance, the Trust is not consolidated in the Company’s financial statements.  The Bank is primarily engaged in the business of accepting savings and demand deposits and originating mortgage loans and other loans to individuals and small businesses for various personal and commercial purposes.

As previously announced, on December 28, 2011, Security Federal Bank completed a charter conversion from a federally chartered stock savings bank to a South Carolina chartered commercial bank. As a result of this transaction, the Company was reorganized into a bank holding company.

3. Critical Accounting Policies

The Company has adopted various accounting policies, which govern the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States in the preparation of our financial statements.  Our significant accounting policies are described in the footnotes to the audited consolidated financial statements at March 31, 2011 included in our 2011 Annual Report to Stockholders, which was filed as an exhibit to our 2011 10-K.  Certain accounting policies involve significant judgments and assumptions by management, which have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities.  We consider these accounting policies to be critical accounting policies.  The judgments and assumptions we use are based on historical experience and other factors, which we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances.  Because of the nature of the judgments and assumptions we make, actual results could differ from these judgments and estimates which could have a material impact on our carrying values of assets and liabilities and our results of operations.

The Company believes the allowance for loan losses is a critical accounting policy that requires the most significant judgments and estimates used in preparation of the consolidated financial statements.  The Company provides for loan losses using the allowance method.  Accordingly, all loan losses are charged to the related allowance and all recoveries are credited to the allowance for loan losses.

3.  
Critical Accounting Policies, Continued

Additions to the allowance for loan losses are provided by charges to operations based on various factors, which, in management’s judgment, deserve current recognition in estimating possible losses.  Such factors considered by management include the fair value of the underlying collateral, stated guarantees by the borrower (if applicable), the borrower’s ability to repay from other economic resources, growth and composition of the loan portfolio, the relationship of the allowance for loan losses to the outstanding loans, loss experience, delinquency trends, and general economic conditions.  Management evaluates the carrying value of the loans periodically and the allowance is adjusted accordingly.

While management uses the best information available to make evaluations, future adjustments may be necessary if economic conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in making these evaluations.  The allowance for loan losses is subject to periodic evaluations by various authorities and may be subject to adjustments based upon the information that is available at the time of their examination.

The Company values impaired loans at the loan’s fair value if it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the terms of the loan agreement at the present value of expected cash flows, the market price of the loan, if available, or the value of the underlying collateral.  Expected cash flows are required to be discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate.  When the ultimate collectibility of an impaired loan’s principal is in doubt, wholly or partially, all cash receipts are applied to principal.  When this doubt does not exist, cash receipts are applied under the contractual terms of the loan agreement first to interest and then to principal.  Once the recorded principal balance has been reduced to zero, future cash receipts are applied to interest income to the extent that any interest has been foregone.  Further cash receipts are recorded as recoveries of any amounts previously charged off.

The Company uses assumptions and estimates in determining income taxes payable or refundable for the current year, deferred income tax liabilities and assets for events recognized differently in its financial statements and income tax returns, and income tax expense. Determining these amounts requires analysis of certain transactions and interpretation of tax laws and regulations. The Company exercises considerable judgment in evaluating the amount and timing of recognition of the resulting tax liabilities and assets. These judgments and estimates are reevaluated on a continual basis as regulatory and business factors change. No assurance can be given that either the tax returns submitted by us or the income tax reported on the Consolidated Financial Statements will not be adjusted by either adverse rulings by the United States Tax Court, changes in the tax code, or assessments made by the Internal Revenue Service.

4.  
Earnings Per Common Share

Accounting guidance specifies the computation, presentation and disclosure requirements for earnings per share (“EPS”) for entities with publicly held common stock or potential common stock such as options, warrants, convertible securities or contingent stock agreements if those securities trade in a public market. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.  Diluted EPS is similar to the computation of basic EPS except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the dilutive common shares had been issued.  The dilutive effect of options outstanding under the Company’s stock option plan is reflected in diluted earnings per share by application of the treasury stock method. The reverse treasury stock method is used to determine the dilutive effect of the mandatorily redeemable shares outstanding, which were issued by the Company in conjunction with the acquisition of the Collier-Jennings Companies.

Net income available to common shareholders represents consolidated net income adjusted for preferred dividends declared, accretions of discounts and amortization of premiums on preferred stock issuances and cumulative dividends related to the current dividend period that have not been declared as of period end. The following table provides a reconciliation of net income to net income available to common shareholders for the periods presented:

None of the options outstanding at December 31, 2011 or 2010 had an exercise price below the average market price during the three and nine month periods ended December 31, 2011 or 2010, respectively. Therefore these options were not deemed to be dilutive to earnings per share in those periods.

6.  
Stock Warrants

In conjunction with its participation in the U.S. Department of Treasury’s (“Treasury”) Capital Purchase Program, the Company sold a warrant to the Treasury to purchase 137,966 shares of the Company’s common stock at $19.57 per share. The warrant has a 10-year term and was immediately exercisable upon issuance. At December 31, 2011,  the warrant was not deemed to be dilutive.  There were no changes in the Company’s stock warrant during the three and nine month periods ended December 31, 2011 and 2010.

7.    Carrying Amounts and Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Effective April 1, 2008, the Company adopted accounting guidance which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value under generally accepted accounting principles. This guidance applies to reported balances that are required or permitted to be measured at fair value under existing accounting pronouncements; accordingly, the standard does not require any new fair value measurements of reported balances.

Accounting guidance emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement. Therefore, a fair value measurement should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs that are classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy) and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions (unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy).

Level 1
Valuation is based upon quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Level 1 assets and liabilities include debt and equity securities and derivative contracts that are traded in an active exchange market, as well as U.S. Treasuries and money market funds.
Level 2
Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, as well as inputs that are observable for the asset or liability (other than quoted prices), such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. Level 2 assets and liabilities include debt securities with quoted prices that are traded less frequently than exchange-traded instruments, mortgage-backed securities, municipal bonds, corporate debt securities and derivative contracts whose value is determined using a pricing model with inputs that are observable in the market or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data. This category generally includes certain derivative contracts and impaired loans.
Level 3
Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use at least one significant assumption based on unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which are typically based on an entity’s own assumptions, as there is little, if any, related market activity. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value.

Investment Securities Available for Sale

Investment securities available for sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. At December 31, 2011, the Company’s investment portfolio was comprised of government and agency bonds, mortgage-backed securities issued by government agencies or government sponsored enterprises, municipal securities, and one equity investment. The portfolio did not contain any private label mortgage-backed securities. Fair value measurement is based upon prices obtained from third party pricing services who use independent pricing models which rely on a variety of factors including reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, benchmark yields, economic and industry events and other relevant market information. As such, these securities are classified as Level 2.

Mortgage Loans Held for Sale

The Company originates fixed rate residential loans on a servicing released basis in the secondary market. Loans closed but not yet settled with Freddie Mac or other investors, are carried in the Company’s loans held for sale portfolio.  These loans are fixed rate residential loans that have been originated in the Company’s name and have closed.  Virtually all of these loans have commitments to be purchased by investors and the majority of these loans were locked in by price with the investors on the same day or shortly thereafter that the loan was locked in with the Company’s customers.  Therefore, these loans present very little market risk for the Company.

The Company usually delivers to, and receives funding from, the investor within 30 days.  Commitments to sell these loans to the investor are considered derivative contracts and are sold to investors on a “best efforts" basis.The Company is not obligated to deliver a loan or pay a penalty if a loan is not delivered to the investor. As a result of the short-term nature of these derivative contracts, the fair value of the mortgage loans held for sale in most cases is the same as the value of the loan amount at its origination. These loans are classified as Level 2.

Impaired Loans

The Company does not record loans held for investment at fair value on a recurring basis. However, from time to time, a loan is considered impaired and an allowance for loan losses is established as necessary. Loans for which it is probable that payment of interest and principal will not be made in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement are considered impaired. Once a loan is identified as individually impaired, management measures impairment.
 
Fair value is estimated using one of the following methods: fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to sell, discounted cash flows, or market value of the loan based on similar debt. The fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to sell is the most frequently used method. Typically, the Company reviews the most recent appraisal and if it is over 24 months old will request a new third party appraisal. Depending on the particular circumstances surrounding the loan, including the location of the collateral, the date of the most recent appraisal and the value of the collateral relative to the recorded investment in the loan, management may order an independent appraisal immediately or, in some instances, may elect to perform an internal analysis. Specifically as an example, in situations where the collateral on a nonperforming commercial real estate loan is out of the Company’s primary market area, management would typically order an independent appraisal immediately, at the earlier of the date the loan becomes nonperforming or immediately following the determination that the loan is impaired. However, as a second example, on a nonperforming commercial real estate loan where management is familiar with the property and surrounding areas and where the original appraisal value far exceeds the recorded investment in the loan, management may perform an internal analysis whereby the previous appraisal value would be reviewed and adjusted for current conditions including recent sales of similar properties in the area and any other relevant economic trends. These valuations are reviewed at a minimum on a quarterly basis.

Those impaired loans not requiring an allowance represent loans for which the fair value of the expected repayments or collateral exceed the recorded investments in such loans. At December 31, 2011, substantially all of the total impaired loans were evaluated based on the fair value of the collateral. Impaired loans where an allowance is established based on the fair value of collateral require classification in the fair value hierarchy. The Company records impaired loans as nonrecurring Level 3.

As of December 31, 2011 and March 31, 2011, the recorded investment in impaired loans was $32.0 million and $33.3 million, respectively. The average recorded investment in impaired loans was $32.7 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2011 and $37.2 million for the year ended March 31, 2011.

Foreclosed Assets

Foreclosed assets are adjusted to fair value upon transfer of the loans to foreclosed assets. Subsequently, foreclosed assets are carried at the lower of carrying value or fair value. Fair value is based upon independent market prices, appraised values of the collateral or management’s estimation of the value of the collateral. When the fair value of the collateral is based on an observable market price or a current appraised value, the Company records the foreclosed asset as nonrecurring Level 3. When an appraised value is not available or management determines the fair value of the collateral is further impaired below the appraised value and there is no observable market price, the Company records the asset as nonrecurring Level 3.
 
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill and identified intangible assets are subject to impairment testing. The Company’s approach to testing for impairment is to compare the business unit’s carrying value to the implied fair value based on a multiple of revenue approach. Impairment testing is performed annually as of September 30th or when events or circumstances occur indicating that goodwill of the reporting unit might be impaired.  In the event the fair value is determined to be less than the carrying value, the asset is recorded at fair value as determined by the valuation model. As such, goodwill and other intangible assets subjected to nonrecurring fair value adjustments are classified as Level 3.

Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instrument

The fair value is determined, in accordance with the underlying agreement at the instrument’s redemption value, as the number of shares issuable pursuant to the agreement at a price per share determined as the greater of a) $26 per share or b) 1.5 times the book value per share of the Company. This instrument is classified as Level 2. The mandatorily redeemable financial instrument was redeemed during the quarter ended June 30, 2011.

For assets and liabilities that are not presented on the balance sheet at fair value, the following methods are used to determine the fair value:
 
Cash and cash equivalents—The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value. All mature within 90 days and do not present unanticipated credit concerns.
 
Certificates of deposits with other banks—Fair value is based on market prices for similar assets.
 
Investment securities held to maturity—Securities held to maturity are valued at quoted market prices or dealer quotes.
 
Loans—The fair value of loans are estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. As discount rates are based on current loan rates as well as management estimates, the fair values presented may not be indicative of the value negotiated in an actual sale.
 
FHLB Stock—The fair value approximates the carrying value.
 
Deposits—The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts, and money market accounts is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposits is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.
 
 Federal Home Loan Bank Advances—Fair value is estimated based on discounted cash flows using current market rates for borrowings with similar terms.
 
Other Borrowed Money—The carrying value of these short term borrowings approximates fair value.

At December 31, 2011, the Bank had $33.8 million of off-balance sheet financial commitments.  These commitments are to originate loans and unused consumer lines of credit and credit card lines.  Because these obligations are based on current market rates, if funded, the original principal is considered to be a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Fair value estimates are made on a specific date, based on relevant market data and information about the financial instrument.  These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale the Bank’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument.  Because no active market exists for a significant portion of the Bank’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, current interest rates and prepayment trends, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors.  These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision.  Changes in any of these assumptions used in calculating fair value would also significantly affect the estimates. Fair value estimates are based on existing on- and off-balance sheet financial instruments without attempting to estimate the value of anticipated future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments.  For example, the Bank has significant assets and liabilities that are not considered financial assets or liabilities including deposit franchise values, loan servicing portfolios, deferred tax liabilities, and premises and equipment.

In addition, the tax ramifications related to the realization of the unrealized gains and losses can have a significant effect on fair value estimates and have not been considered in any of these estimates. The Company has used management’s best estimate of fair value on the above assumptions.  Thus, the fair values presented may not be the amounts, which could be realized, in an immediate sale or settlement of the instrument.  In addition, any income taxes or other expenses that would be incurred in an actual sale or settlement are not taken into consideration in the fair value presented.

8.      Accounting and Reporting Changes

The following is a summary of recent authoritative pronouncements that could impact the accounting, reporting, and/or disclosure of financial information by the Company.

In July 2010, the Receivables topic of the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) was amended by Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2010-20 to require expanded disclosures related to a company’s allowance for credit losses and the credit quality of its financing receivables. The amendments require the allowance disclosures to be provided on a disaggregated basis. The Company is required to include these disclosures in its interim and annual financial statements. See Note 10.

Disclosures about Troubled Debt Restructurings (“TDRs”) required by ASU 2010-20 were deferred by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in ASU 2011-01 issued in January 2011. In April 2011 the FASB issued ASU 2011-02 to assist creditors with their determination of when a restructuring is a TDR. The determination is based on whether the restructuring constitutes a concession and whether the debtor is experiencing financial difficulties as both events must be present.

Disclosures related to TDRs under ASU 2010-20 have been presented in Note 10.

In December 2010, the Intangibles topic of the ASC was amended to modify Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. For those reporting units, an entity is required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. Any resulting goodwill impairment should be recorded as a cumulative effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings upon adoption. Impairments occurring subsequent to adoption should be included in earnings. The amendment was effective for the Company on April 1, 2011.
 
In September 2011, the Intangibles topic was again amended to permit an entity to consider qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. This amendment will be effective for the Company on April 1, 2012.

In April 2011, the criteria used to determine effective control of transferred assets in the Transfers and Servicing topic of the ASC was amended by ASU 2011-03. The requirement for the transferor to have the ability to repurchase or redeem the financial assets on substantially the agreed terms and the collateral maintenance implementation guidance related to that criterion were removed from the assessment of effective control. The other criteria to assess effective control were not changed. The amendments are effective for the Company beginning April 1, 2012 but are not expected to have a material effect on the financial statements.

ASU 2011-04 was issued in May 2011 to amend the Fair Value Measurement topic of the ASC by clarifying the application of existing fair value measurement and disclosure requirements and by changing particular principles or requirements for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. The amendments were effective for the Company beginning April 1, 2012 but are not expected to have a material effect on the financial statements.

The Comprehensive Income topic of the ASC was amended in June 2011. The amendment eliminates the option to present other comprehensive income as a part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity and requires consecutive presentation of the statement of net income and other comprehensive income. The amendments will be applicable to the Company on April 1, 2012 and will be applied retrospectively. In December 2011, the topic was further amended to defer the effective date of presenting reclassification adjustments from other comprehensive income to net income on the face of the financial statements. Companies should continue to report reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income consistent with the presentation requirements in effect prior to the amendments while FASB redeliberates future requirements.

Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Securities classified as available for sale are recorded at fair market value. Approximately 9.4% of the unrealized losses, or one individual security, consisted of a security in a continuous loss position for 12 months or more at December 31, 2011.  At March 31, 2011, approximately 1.5% of the unrealized losses, or one individual security, consisted of a security in a continuous loss position for 12 months or more. The Company believes, based on industry analyst reports and credit ratings, that the deterioration in value is attributable to changes in market interest rates and is not in the credit quality of the issuer and therefore, these losses are not considered other-than-temporary. The Company reviews its investment securities portfolio at least quarterly and more frequently when economic conditions warrant, assessing whether there is any indication of other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”). Factors considered in the review include estimated future cash flows, length of time and extent to which market value has been less than cost, the financial condition and near term prospects of the issuer, and our intent and ability to retain the security to allow for an anticipated recovery in market value.

If the review determines that there is OTTI, then an impairment loss is recognized in earnings equal to the entire difference between the investment’s cost and its fair value at the balance sheet date of the reporting period for which the assessment is made, or a portion may be recognized in other comprehensive income. The fair value of investments on which OTTI is recognized then becomes the new cost basis of the investment.

The Company uses a risk based approach based on the following credit quality measures when analyzing the loan portfolio: pass, watch, special mention, and substandard. These indicators are used to rate the credit quality of loans for the purposes of determining the Company’s allowance for loan losses. Pass loans are loans that are performing and are deemed adequately protected by the net worth of the borrower or the underlying collateral value. These loans are considered the least risky in terms of determining the allowance for loan losses. Substandard loans are considered the most risky category. These loans typically have an identified weakness or weaknesses and are inadequately protected by the net worth of the borrower or collateral value. All loans 60 days or more past due are automatically classified in this category. The other two categories fall in between these two grades. The following tables list the loan grades used by the Company as credit quality indicators and the balance in each category, excluding loans held for sale for the periods indicated.

At December 31, 2011, the Company did not have any loans that were 90 days or more past due and still accruing interest. Our strategy is to work with our borrowers to reach acceptable payment plans while protecting our interests in the existing collateral.  In the event an acceptable arrangement cannot be reached, we may have to acquire these properties through foreclosure or other means and subsequently sell, develop, or liquidate them. The following table shows non-accrual loans by category at December 31, 2011 compared to March 31, 2011.

Loans for which it is probable that payment of interest and principal will not be made in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement are considered impaired. Once a loan is identified as individually impaired management measures impairment and records the loan at fair value. Fair value is estimated using one of the following methods: fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to sale, discounted cash flows, or market value of the loan based on similar debt. The fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to sell is the most frequently used method. Typically, the Company reviews the most recent appraisal and if it is over 24 months old will request a new third party appraisal. Depending on the particular circumstances surrounding the loan, including the location of the collateral, the date of the most recent appraisal and the value of the collateral relative to the recorded investment in the loan, management may order an independent appraisal immediately or, in some instances, may elect to perform an internal analysis.

TDRs included in impaired loans at December 31, 2011 and March 31, 2011 were $11.2 million and $12.2 million, respectively. Interest earned during the nine months ended December 31, 2011 and fiscal 2011 on these loans amounted to $169,000 and $649,000, respectively.

As a result of adopting the amendments in ASU 2011-02, management reassessed all restructurings that occurred on or after the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption (April 1, 2011) to determine whether they are considered TDRs under the amended guidance.  Management identified as TDRs certain loans for which the allowance for loan losses had previously been measured under a general allowance methodology. Upon identifying those loans as TDRs, management identified them as impaired under the guidance in ASC 310-10-35. The amendments in ASU 2011-02 require prospective application of the impairment measurement guidance in ASC 310-10-35 for those loans newly identified as impaired. At the end of the first interim period of adoption (September 30, 2011), the recorded investment in loans for which the allowance was previously measured under a general allowance methodology and are now impaired under ASC 310-10-35 was $11.8 million, and the allowance for loan losses associated with those loans, on the basis of a current evaluation of loss was $215,000.

10.      Loans Receivable, Net, Continued

During the three months ended December 31, 2011, we modified two loans that were considered to be TDRs.   The interest rate was lowered for both of these loans.  During the nine months ended December 31, 2011, we modified five loans that were considered TDRs. The interest rate was lowered for these loans.

During the nine months ended December 31, 2011, eight loans that had been previously restructured were in default, one of which went into default in the quarter ended December 31, 2011. However, there were no loans restructured during the previous twelve months that subsequently defaulted during the three or nine months periods ended December 31, 2011.

11.    Subsequent Events

Subsequent events are events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued. Recognized subsequent events are events or transactions that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance sheet, including estimates inherent in the process of preparing financial statements. Nonrecognized subsequent events are events that provide evidence about conditions that did not exist at the date of the balance sheet but arose after that date. Management has reviewed events occurring through the date the financial statements were available to be issued and no subsequent events occurred requiring accrual or disclosure.

The Company undertakes no obligation to issue revised forward-looking statements to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events or circumstances after the date hereof. These risks could cause our actual results for fiscal year 2011 and beyond to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements by or on behalf of us, and could negatively affect the Company’s financial condition, liquidity and operating and stock price performance.

Comparison Of Financial Condition At December 31, 2011 and March 31, 2011

General – Total assets decreased $17.0 million or 1.8% to $916.6 million at December 31, 2011 from $933.5 million at March 31, 2011.  The primary reason for the decrease in total assets was a decrease in net loans receivable, offset by increases in investments.

Assets – The increases and decreases in total assets were primarily concentrated in the following asset categories:

    5,752,349       7,865,690       (2,113,341 )     (26.9 )

Certificates of deposits with other banks increased $1.6 million or 1,619.3% to $1.7 million at December 31, 2011, from $100,000 at March 31, 2011. The Bank is eligible to participate in various grant programs as a result of its status as a community development financial institution under the Treasury’s CDCI program. As part of one of these grant programs, the Bank benefits from investing in certificates of deposits with other community development financial institutions. All of these certificates are in increments of $250,000 or less and are therefore fully insured by the FDIC.

Investment and mortgage-backed securities increased $26.0 million or 7.0% to $398.4 million at December 31, 2011 from $372.4 million at March 31, 2011. This increase was the result of investment purchases offset slightly by principal repayments, calls and maturities on securities coupled with the sale of 51 securities consisting primarily of mortgage-backed securities during the nine month period ended December 31, 2011.

Loans receivable, net, decreased $38.7 million or 8.0% to $445.8 million at December 31, 2011 from $484.5 million at March 31, 2011. This decrease was a result of the Company’s efforts to implement more stringent underwriting standards and increase rates combined with lower loan demand.  Residential real estate loans decreased $12.0 million to $99.0 million at December 31, 2011 from $111.0 million at March 31, 2011.  Consumer loans decreased $4.5 million to $60.4 million at December 31, 2011 compared to $64.9 million at March 31, 2011. Commercial real estate loans and commercial business loans decreased $21.0 million and $2.9 million, respectively, to $286.0 million and $10.6 million, respectively, at December 31, 2011 compared to $307.0 million and $13.5 million, respectively, at March 31, 2011. Loans held for sale increased $465,000 to $5.6 million at December 31, 2011 from $5.2 million at March 31, 2011.

Repossessed assets acquired in settlement of loans decreased $773,000 or 5.4% to $13.7 million at December 31, 2011 from $14.4 million at March 31, 2011.  The Company sold 17 real estate properties and repossessed 26 additional properties during the nine month period ended December 31, 2011 resulting in a decrease in repossessed assets acquired in settlement of loans during the period.

Other Borrowings – The Bank had $9.8 million and $11.2 million in other borrowings (non-FHLB advances) at December 31, 2011 and March 31, 2011, respectively.  These borrowings consist of short-term repurchase agreements with certain commercial demand deposit customers for sweep accounts.  The repurchase agreements typically mature within one to three days and the interest rate paid on these borrowings floats monthly with money market type rates. At December 31, 2011 and March 31, 2011, the interest rate paid on the repurchase agreements was 0.30% and 0.40%, respectively.  The Bank had pledged as collateral for these repurchase agreements investment and mortgage-backed securities with amortized costs and fair values of $19.3 million and $20.6 million, respectively at December 31, 2011 and $22.7 million and $23.7 million, respectively at March 31, 2011.

Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instrument – On June 30, 2006, the Company recorded a $1.4 million mandatorily redeemable financial instrument as a result of the acquisition of the Collier-Jennings Companies.  The shareholder of the Collier-Jennings Companies received cash and was issued stock in the Company to settle the acquisition.  The Company released the shares to the shareholder of the Collier-Jennings Companies over a three-year period.  The stock had a mandatorily redeemable rate of 20% per year for a five-year period at the greater of $26 per share or one and one-half times the book value of the Company’s stock.

On April 11, 2011, the Company eliminated the mandatorily redeemable shares of the Company’s common stock as a result of an investor’s purchase of these shares in a private transaction. In connection with the purchase of these shares, the redemption feature was eliminated. As a result, the Company no longer has the liability related to these shares on its balance sheet and the Company’s capital increased by $1.5 million.

Junior Subordinated Debentures – On September 21, 2006, the Trust (Security Federal Statutory Trust), issued and sold fixed and floating rate capital securities of the Trust (the “Capital Securities”), which are reported on the consolidated balance sheet as junior subordinated debentures, generating proceeds of $5.0 million. The Trust loaned these proceeds to the Company to use for general corporate purposes, primarily to provide capital to the Bank. The debentures qualify as Tier 1 capital under Federal Reserve guidelines.

The Capital Securities accrue and pay distributions quarterly at a rate of 2.25% at December 31, 2011.  Prior to September 2011, one-half of the Capital Securities issued in the transaction had a fixed rate of 6.88% and the remaining half had a floating rate of three-month LIBOR plus 170 basis points. After September 2011, the rate is a floating rate of three month LIBOR plus 170 basis points as the fixed rate portion was converted to the floating rate. The distribution rate payable on the Capital Securities is cumulative and payable quarterly in arrears.

The Company has the right, subject to events of default, to defer payments of interest on the Capital Securities for a period not to exceed 20 consecutive quarterly periods, provided that no extension period may extend beyond the maturity date of December 15, 2036. The Company has no current intention to exercise its right to defer payments of interest on the Capital Securities.

The Capital Securities mature or are mandatorily redeemable upon maturity on December 15, 2036, and or upon earlier optional redemption as provided in the indenture. The Company has the right to redeem the Capital Securities in whole or in part, on or after September 15, 2011. The Company may also redeem the Capital Securities prior to such dates upon occurrence of specified conditions and the payment of a redemption premium.

Item 2 -  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Convertible Debentures – Effective December 1, 2009, the Company issued $6.1 million in convertible senior debentures. The debentures will mature on December 1, 2029 and accrue interest at the rate of 8.0% per annum until maturity or earlier redemption or repayment. Interest on the debentures is payable on June 1 and December 1 of each year, commencing June 1, 2010. The debentures are convertible into the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $20 per share at the option of the holder at any time prior to maturity.

The debentures are redeemable, in whole or in part, at the option of the Company at any time on or after December 1, 2019, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the debentures to be purchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the date of redemption. The debentures will be unsecured general obligations of the Company ranking equal in right of payment to all of our present and future unsecured indebtedness that is not expressly subordinated.

Equity – Shareholders’ equity increased $4.5 million or 6.0% to $80.6 million at December 31, 2011 from $76.0 million at March 31, 2011. Accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax increased $2.8 million to $6.4 million at December 31, 2011. The Company’s net income available for common shareholders was $1.0 million for the nine month period ended December 31, 2011, after preferred stock dividends of $330,000.

On April 11, 2011, the Company eliminated the mandatorily redeemable shares of the Company’s common stock as a result of an investor’s purchase of these shares in a private equity transaction. In connection with the purchase of these shares, the redemption feature was eliminated. As a result, the Company no longer has the liability related to these shares on its balance sheet. This transaction resulted in an increase to capital of $1.5 million during the nine months ended December 31, 2011.

Item 2 -  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
 
COMPARISON OF THE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2011 AND 2010

Net Income - Net income available to common shareholders increased $32,000 or 9.2% to $376,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2011 compared to $344,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2010. The increase in net income is primarily a result of an increase in other non-interest income and a decrease in other general and administrative expenses. These factors were offset slightly by a decrease in net interest income.

Net Interest Income - For the quarter ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, net interest margin was 3.09%. Net interest income decreased $185,000 or 2.8% to $6.5 million during the three months ended December 31, 2011, compared to $6.7 million for the same period in 2010, as a result of a significant decrease in the volume of interest bearing assets, particularly loans.

Total average interest-earning assets decreased $19.1 million to $846.5 million at December 31, 2011 while average interest-bearing liabilities decreased $22.6 million to $790.0 million at December 31, 2011.  The interest rate spread increased two basis points to 2.99% during the three months ended December 31, 2011 compared to 2.97% for the same period in 2010.

Interest Income - Total interest income decreased $1.1 million or 10.3% to $9.5 million during the three months ended December 31, 2011 from $10.6 million for the same period in 2010.  Total interest income on loans decreased $1.1 million or 13.7% to $6.9 million during the three months ended December 31, 2011 compared to $8.0 million for the same period one year prior. The decrease was a result of a decrease in the average loan portfolio balance of $71.3 million combined with the yield in the loan portfolio decreasing one basis point. Interest income from mortgage-backed securities decreased $144,000 or 7.3% to $1.8 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 from $2.0 million for the same quarter in 2010. This decrease was the result of a decrease in the portfolio yield of 66 basis points offset partially by an increase in the average balance of $31.5 million. Interest income from investment securities increased $151,000 or 26.1% as a result of an increase in the average balance of the investment securities portfolio of $21.4 million combined with an increase in the portfolio yield of 28 basis points.

The following table compares detailed average balances, associated yields, and the resulting changes in interest income for the three months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010:

Interest Expense - Total interest expense decreased $907,000 or 23.4% to $3.0 million during the three months ended December 31, 2011 compared to $3.9 million for the same period one-year earlier.  The decrease in total interest expense is attributable to decreases in interest rates paid combined with a decrease in the average balances of interest-bearing liabilities.  Interest expense on deposits decreased $697,000 or 30.1% to $1.6 million during the period. The decrease was attributable to a 42 basis point decrease in the cost of deposits combined with a decrease in average interest-bearing deposits of $5.8 million compared to the average balance in the three months ended December 31, 2010.  The decrease in the cost of deposits primarily resulted from maturing certificate accounts repricing at lower interest rates. Interest expense on advances and other borrowings decreased $174,000 or 12.6% as the cost of debt outstanding decreased six basis points during the quarter ended December 31, 2011 compared to the same quarter in 2010.  Average total borrowings outstanding decreased $16.8 million during the same period. Interest expense on senior convertible debentures was $122,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 and 2010. These debentures bear a fixed interest rate of 8%. The average balance remained constant at $6.1 million during both periods. Interest expense on junior subordinated debentures was $22,000 for the three

Provision for Loan Losses - The amount of the provision is determined by management’s on-going monthly analysis of the loan portfolio and the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. The Company has policies and procedures in place for evaluating and monitoring the overall credit quality of the loan portfolio and for timely identification of potential problem loans including internal and external loan reviews. The adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is reviewed monthly by the Asset Classification Committee and quarterly by the Board of Directors.

Management’s monthly review of the adequacy of the allowance includes three main components. The first component is an analysis of loss potential in various homogenous segments of the portfolio based on historical trends and the risk inherent in each category. Previously, management applied a five year historical loss ratio to each loan category to estimate the inherent loss in these pooled loans. However as a result of the decline in economic conditions and the unprecedented increases in delinquencies and charge offs experienced by the industry in recent periods, the Company no longer considers five year historical losses relevant indicators of future losses. Management has set the loss period to 24 months in recent quarters to more accurately project losses in the near future.

The second component of management’s monthly analysis is the specific review and evaluation of significant problem credits identified through the Company’s internal monitoring system. These loans are evaluated for impairment and recorded in accordance with ASC 310-10. For each loan deemed impaired as permitted under ASC 310-10, management calculates a specific reserve for the amount in which the recorded investment in the loan exceeds the fair value. This estimate is based on a thorough analysis of the most probable source of repayment, which is typically liquidation of the collateral.

The third component is an analysis of changes in qualitative factors that may affect the portfolio, including but not limited to: relevant economic trends that could impact the borrowers’ ability to repay, industry trends, changes in the volume and composition of the portfolio, credit concentrations, or lending policies and the experience and ability of the staff and Board of Directors. Management also reviews and incorporates certain ratios such as percentage of classified loans, average historical loan losses by loan category, delinquency percentages, and the assignment of percentage targets of reserves in each loan category when evaluating the allowance.

Once the analysis is completed, the three components are combined and compared to the allowance amount. Based on this, charges are made to the provision as needed.

At December 31, 2011, the Company did not have any loans that were 90 days or more past due and still accruing interest. The cumulative interest not accrued during the quarter ended December 31, 2011 relating to all non-performing loans totaled $221,000. Our strategy is to work with our borrowers to reach acceptable payment plans while protecting our interests in the existing collateral. In the event an acceptable arrangement cannot be reached, we may have to acquire these properties through foreclosure or other means and subsequently sell, develop or liquidate them.

Non-Interest Income - Non-interest income increased $783,000 or 44.0% to $2.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2011 from $1.8 million for the same period one year ago primarily as a result of an increase in gain on sale of investments.  The following table provides a detailed analysis of the changes in the components of non-interest income:

Total Non-Interest Income
  $ 2,563,457     $ 1,779,961     $ 783,496       44.0 %

Gain on sale of investments was $1.2 million during the quarter ended December 31, 2011 compared to $493,000 in the same period one year earlier. The gain resulted from the sale of 22 securities during the period. Based on an analysis of the portfolio, the Company was able to maximize return by selling securities with short average lives as a result of call features or securities with adjustable rates scheduled to reprice down in the near future.

Gain on sale of loans decreased $173,000 to $162,000 during the three months ended December 31, 2011 compared to the same period one year ago as a result of a decrease in the volume of fixed rate residential mortgage loans originated and sold. The volume of refinancing activity was at an all time high in the previous year as a result of the low interest rate environment.  Service fees on deposit accounts increased $15,000 to $304,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 compared to $290,000 for the same quarter in 2010. Income from cash value of life insurance was $105,000 for each of the three months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010.

Commissions from insurance increased $4,000 to $97,000 during the three months ended December 31, 2011 compared to $93,000 for the same period one year ago. Trust income increased $11,000 or 9.6% to $120,000 during the three months ended December 31, 2011 compared to $110,000 during the same period in 2010.

Mandatorily redeemable financial instrument valuation was a gain of $90,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2010 compared to none for the quarter ended December 31, 2011. In connection with the acquisition of the Collier-Jennings Companies on June 30, 2006, the Company recorded a $1.4 million mandatorily redeemable financial instrument. On April 11, 2011, the Company eliminated the mandatorily redeemable shares of the Company’s common stock as a result of an investor’s purchase of these shares in a private transaction. In connection with the purchase of these shares, the redemption feature was eliminated. As a result, the Company no longer has the liability related to these shares on its Consolidated Balance Sheets, nor the related valuation adjustment on its Consolidated Statements of Income.

Check card fee income increased $20,000 or 11.5% to $196,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2011 compared to $176,000 for the same quarter in 2010. Other miscellaneous income including credit life insurance commissions, safe deposit rental income, annuity and stock brokerage commissions, trust fees, and other miscellaneous fees, increased $281,000 to $370,000 during the three months ended December 31, 2011 compared to the same period one year ago. In connection with its participation in the Treasury’s Bank Enterprise Award program, the Bank received $206,000 in grant income during the three months ended December 31, 2011 which contributed to the increase in other miscellaneous income.

General and Administrative Expenses – The Company made significant progress during the quarter to reduce its general and administrative expenses through the implementation of several cost savings strategies. As a result, general and administrative expenses decreased $639,000 or 10.9% to $5.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2011 from $5.9 million for the same period one year ago.  The following table provides a detailed analysis of the changes in the components of general and administrative expenses:

Salary and employee benefits decreased $345,000 or 11.4% to $2.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2011 when compared to $3.0 million for the same period one year ago. As part of the Company’s cost savings strategies and due to the uncertainty in the economy, the Company did not offer annual raises in January 2011. In addition, due to increased efficiency and some attrition, the number of full time equivalent employees decreased by 13 to 211 full time equivalent employees at December 31, 2011 compared to 224 full time equivalent employees at December 31, 2010.

Occupancy increased $45,000 or 10.2% to $484,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2011 from $439,000 for the same period one year ago. Advertising expense increased $11,000 to $108,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2011 from $97,000 for the same period one year ago.  Depreciation and maintenance expense decreased $17,000 or 3.7% to $437,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2011 from $453,000 for the same period one year ago.

FDIC insurance premiums decreased $235,000 or 64.2% to $131,000 for the three month period ended December 31, 2011 compared to $366,000 for the same period a year ago as a result of a change in the calculation of the assessment base. The calculation changed from a deposit based method to an asset based method. The Bank's asset base has decreased.

Item 2 -  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Net cost of operation of other real estate owned increased $106,000 or 25.3% to $526,000 during the quarter ended December 31, 2011 from $420,000 during the quarter ended December 31, 2010. Net cost of operation of other real estate includes any gain or loss on the sale of other real estate owned and all other expenses related to these properties incurred during the period.

Other expenses decreased $195,000 to $865,000 for the three month period ended December 31, 2011, a decrease of 18.4% when compared to $1.1 million for the same period in the prior year. Other expenses include legal fees, consultant fees, and expenses associated with loan collection and workout efforts.

Provision For Income Taxes – Provision for income taxes increased $1.0 million or 438.4% to $1.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2011 from $229,000 for the same period one year ago.  Income before income taxes was $1.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2011 compared to $684,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2010.  The Company’s combined federal and state effective income tax rate for the current quarter was 71.8% compared to 33.6% for the same quarter one year ago.  As previously announced, on December 28, 2011, Security Federal Bank completed a charter conversion from a federally chartered stock savings bank to a South Carolina chartered commercial bank. As a result of this transaction, the Company recognized an additional $625,000 in income tax expense during the quarter, a one time charge which resulted from a portion of the Company’s deferred tax asset that became unrealizable. Going forward as a result of the Bank’s charter conversion to a commercial bank, the Company will be subject to a lower state income tax rate and therefore expects to experience lower income tax expense in future periods.

COMPARISON OF THE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2011 AND 2010

Net Income - For the nine months ended December 31, 2011, net income available to common shareholders increased $158,000 or 18.1% to $1.0 million or $0.35 per common share (basic) compared to $877,000 or $0.34 per common share (basic) for the nine months ended December 31, 2010.  The increase in earnings for the period is primarily a result of an increase in other income and a decrease in other expenses. These factors were offset slightly by a decrease in net interest income.

Net Interest Income. The net interest margin increased three basis points to 3.13% for the nine months ended December 31, 2011 compared to 3.10% for the comparable period in the previous year. Despite the increase in margin, net interest income decreased $317,000 or 1.6% to $20.0 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2011, compared to $20.3 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2010.
 
The decrease is a result of a decrease in interest income offset by a slight decrease in interest expense. Average interest-earning assets decreased $19.2 million to $854.8 million while average interest-bearing liabilities decreased $29.1 million to $796.8 million.  The interest rate spread was 3.03% and 2.98% during the nine months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
 

Interest Income - Total interest income decreased $3.4 million or 10.2% to $29.6 million during the nine months ended December 31, 2011 from $32.9 million for the same period in 2010.  Total interest income on loans decreased $3.2 million or 13.0% to $21.4 million during the nine months ended December 31, 2011 as a result of the average loan portfolio balance decreasing $78.8 million, offset by the portfolio yield increasing 10 basis points, as a result of stricter underwriting standards.  Interest income from mortgage-backed securities decreased $470,000 or 7.4% to $5.9 million as a result of a 63 basis point decrease in the portfolio yield offset by an increase in the average balance of the portfolio of $26.5 million.   Interest income from investment securities increased $316,000 or 16.4% to $2.2 million as a result of  an increase in the average balance offset by a 24 basis point decrease in the yield.  The average balance of the investment securities portfolio increased $32.3 million to $128.6 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2011 from $96.3 million for the comparable period in 2010.  Interest income on overnight time deposits decreased $1,600 as a result of a seven basis point decrease in the yield of overnight time  and certificates of deposits.

Interest Expense - Total interest expense decreased $3.0 million or 24.1% to $9.6 million during the nine months ended December 31, 2011 compared to $12.6 million for the same period one year earlier.  The decrease in total interest expense is attributable to the decreases in interest rates paid, reflecting a lower market interest rate environment, and a decrease in the amount of interest-bearing  certificate accounts and borrowings.  Interest expense on total deposits decreased $2.4 million or 30.8% during the period as average interest bearing deposits decreased $11.3 million to $644.7 million compared to the average balance of $655.9 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2010, and the cost of deposits decreased 45 basis points. The decrease in the cost of deposits was primarily a result of maturing certificates that repriced at lower rates during the period. Interest expense on advances and other borrowings decreased $657,000 or 14.8% to $3.8 million compared to $4.4 million for the same period in 2010 as the cost of debt outstanding decreased 15 basis points during the nine months ended December 31, 2011 and average borrowings outstanding decreased $17.8 million.

Interest expense on senior convertible debentures was $365,000 for each of the nine months ended December 31, 2011and 2010. The Company issued $6.1 million in fixed 8% senior convertible debentures on December 1, 2009. Interest expense on junior subordinated debentures was $138,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2011 compared to $176,000 for the same period one year ago.

Gain on sale of investments increased $577,000 to $1.8 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2011 compared to $1.2 million in the comparable period in the prior year as a result of the sale of 51 securities. Based on an analysis of the portfolio, the Company was able to maximize return by selling securities with short average lives as a result of call features or securities with an adjustable rate scheduled to reprice down in the near future. The Company sold 47 securities in the same period in the prior year.

Gain on sale of loans decreased $789,000 to $392,000 during the nine months ended December 31, 2011 compared to $1.2 million for the same period one year ago as a result of the decrease in origination and sale of fixed rate residential mortgage loans.  The volume of refinancing activity was at an all time high in the previous year as a result of the low interest rate environment.

Commissions from insurance agency increased $6,000 to $308,000 during the nine months ended December 31, 2011 compared to $302,000 for the same period one year ago. Trust income increased $22,000 to $350,000 during the nine months ended December 31, 2011 compared to $329,000 for the nine months ended December 21, 2010.

The Company recorded $50,000 in mandatorily redeemable financial instrument valuation income for the nine months ended December 31, 2011 compared to $5,000 for the same period one year earlier. Based on its terms, the mandatorily redeemable financial instrument is redeemable at the greater of $26 per share or one and a half times the book value of the Company. On April 11, 2011, the Company eliminated the mandatorily redeemable shares of the Company’s common stock as a result of an investor’s purchase of these shares in a private transaction. In connection with the purchase of these shares, the redemption feature was eliminated. As a result, the Company no longer has the liability related to these shares on its Consolidated Balance Sheet, nor the related valuation adjustment on its Consolidated Statements of Income.

Check card fee income was $589,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2011, an increase of $82,000 or 16.2% compared to $507,000 for the same period in 2010. Other miscellaneous income including credit life insurance commissions, safe deposit rental income, annuity and stock brokerage commissions, trust fees, and other miscellaneous fees, increased $156,000 to $679,000 during the nine months ended December 31, 2011 compared to $524,000 for the same period one year ago.

Salary and employee benefits decreased $773,000 to $8.3 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2011 from $9.0 million for the same period one year ago.  As part of the Company’s cost savings strategies and due to the uncertainty in the economy, the Company eliminated annual raises in January 2011. In addition, due to increased efficiency and some attrition, the number of full time equivalent employees decreased.

Occupancy expense was $1.4 million for the nine month period ended December 31, 2011, relatively unchanged from the same period one year ago. Depreciation and maintenance expense decreased $86,000 or 6.2% to $1.3 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2011 from $1.4 million for the same period one year ago. These decreases can be attributed to the Company’s effort to reduce expenses during the period.

Advertising expense increased $11,000 to $310,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2011 from $299,000 for the same period one year ago.  FDIC insurance premiums decreased $306,000 or 30.8% to $688,000 for the nine month period ended December 31, 2011 compared to $994,000 for the same period a year ago as a result of a change in the assessment base calculation to an asset based approach.

Net cost of operation of other real estate owned decreased $402,000 or 32.8% to $824,000 during the nine months ended December 31, 2011 from $1.2 million during the nine months ended December 31, 2010. Net cost of operation of other real estate includes any gain or loss on the sale of other real estate owned and all other expenses related to these properties incurred during the period. As the balance of other real estate owned has slowly decreased, so has the cost associated with these properties.

Other expenses decreased $103,000 to $2.7 million for the nine month period ended December 31, 2011, a decrease of 3.6% when compared to $2.8 million for the same period in the prior year. Other expenses include legal fees, consultant fees, and expenses associated with loan collection and workout efforts.

Provision For Income Taxes – Provision for income taxes increased $814,000 or 95.9% to $1.7 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2011 compared to $850,000 for the same period in 2010.  Income before income taxes was $3.0 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2011 compared to $2.3 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2010.  The Company’s combined federal and state effective income tax rate for the nine month ended December 31, 2011 was 54.9% compared to 36.9% for the same period one year earlier.

Item 2 -  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 
Liquidity Commitments, Capital Resources, and Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices

Liquidity – The Company actively analyzes and manages the Bank’s liquidity with the objective of maintaining an adequate level of liquidity and to ensure the availability of sufficient cash flows to support loan growth, fund deposit withdrawals, fund operations, and satisfy other financial commitments.  See the “Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows” contained in Item 1 – Financial Statements, herein.

The primary sources of funds are customer deposits, loan repayments, loan sales, maturing investment securities, and advances from the FHLB.  The sources of funds, together with retained earnings and equity, are used to make loans, acquire investment securities and other assets, and fund continuing operations.  While maturities and the scheduled amortization of loans are a predictable source of funds, deposit flows and mortgage repayments are greatly influenced by the level of interest rates, economic conditions, and competition.  Management believes that the Company’s current liquidity position and its forecasted operating results are sufficient to fund all of its existing commitments.

During the nine months ended December 31, 2011, loan repayments exceeded loan disbursements resulting in a $38.7 million or 8.0% decrease in total net loans receivable.  During the nine months ended December 31, 2011, deposits decreased $626,000, and FHLB advances decreased $17.6 million. The Bank had $154.6 million in additional borrowing capacity at the FHLB at the end of the period.  At December 31, 2011, the Bank had $215.4 million of certificates of deposit maturing within one year.  Based on previous experience, the Bank anticipates a significant portion of these certificates will be renewed.

The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements that are administered by federal banking agencies.  Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and discretionary actions by regulators that could have a material adverse effect on the Company.  Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices.  The Bank’s capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators with regard to components, risk weightings, and other factors.

As of December 31, 2011 and March 31, 2011, the Bank was categorized as “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action.  To be categorized as well capitalized, the Bank had to maintain total risk-based capital, Tier 1 risk-based capital, and Tier 1 leverage ratios at 10%, 6%, and 5%, respectively.  There are no conditions or events that management believes have changed the Bank’s classification.

Off-Balance Sheet Commitments – The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers.  These financial instruments generally include commitments to originate mortgage, commercial and consumer loans, and involve to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet.  The Company’s maximum exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the borrower is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments.  Since some commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.  The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.

The following table sets forth the length of time until maturity for unused commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit at December 31, 2011:

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures:  An evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a - 15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Act”)) was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and several other members of the Company’s senior management as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report.  The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that at December 31, 2011 the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Act is (i) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management (including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer) in a timely manner, and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. There have been no significant changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2011 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to affect our internal controls over financial reporting

The Company does not expect that its disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all error and or fraud. A control procedure, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control procedure are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control procedures, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any control procedure also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control procedure, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
