 TF FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
 
The consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2011 (unaudited) and December 31, 2010 and for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 (unaudited) include the accounts of TF Financial Corporation (the “Company”) and its wholly owned subsidiaries Third Federal Bank (the “Bank”), TF Investments Corporation and Penns Trail Development Corporation. The accompanying consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2010, has been derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet but does not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) for complete financial statements. The Company’s business is conducted principally through the Bank. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

NOTE 2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include all of the disclosures or footnotes required by US GAAP. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary for fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements have been included. The results of operations for the period ended September 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the entire fiscal year or any other period. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010.

NOTE 3 - CONTINGENCIES

The Company, from time to time, is a party to routine litigation that arises in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the resolution of this litigation, if any, would not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

On a quarterly basis, temporarily impaired securities are evaluated to determine whether such impairment is an other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”).  The Company has   performed this evaluation and has determined that the unrealized losses at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, are not considered other-than-temporary but are the result of changes in interest rates, and are therefore reflected in other comprehensive income.

In order to assess and monitor the credit risk associated with commercial loans, the Company employs a risk rating methodology whereby each commercial loan is initially assigned a risk grade. At least annually, all risk ratings are reviewed in light of information received such as tax returns, rent rolls, cash flow statements, appraisals, and any other information which may affect the then current risk rating, which is adjusted upward or downward as needed.  At the end of each quarter the risk ratings are summarized and become a component of the evaluation of the allowance for loan losses. The Company’s risk rating definitions mirror those promulgated by banking regulators and are as follows:
 
Pass: Good quality loan characterized by satisfactory liquidity; reasonable debt capacity and coverage; acceptable management in all critical positions and normal operating results for its peer group.  The Company has grades 1 through 6 within the Pass category which reflect the increasing amount of attention paid to the individual loan because of, among other things, trends in debt service coverage, management weaknesses, or collateral values.
 
Special mention:  A loan that has potential weaknesses that deserves management’s close attention.  Although the loan is currently protected, if left uncorrected, potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the loan’s repayment prospects or in the borrower’s future credit position.  Potential weaknesses include: weakening financial condition; an unrealistic repayment program; inadequate sources of funds; lack of adequate collateral; credit information; or documentation.  There is currently the capacity to meet interest and principal payments, but further adverse business, financial, or economic conditions may impair capacity or willingness to pay interest and repay principal.
 
Substandard:  A loan that is inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged.  Although no loss of principal or interest is presently apparent, there is the distinct possibility that a partial loss of interest and/or principal will be sustained if the deficiencies are not corrected.  There is a current identifiable vulnerability to default and the dependence upon favorable business, financial, or economic conditions to meet timely payment of interest and repayment of principal.

 
13


 
Doubtful: A loan which has all the weaknesses inherent in a substandard asset with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.  The possibility of loss is extremely high, but because of certain important and reasonable specific pending factors which may work to strengthen the asset, classification as an estimated loss is deferred until a more exact status is determined.  Pending factors include: proposed merger, acquisition, liquidation, capital injection, perfecting liens on additional collateral, and refinancing plans.
 
Loss: Loans which are considered uncollectible and have been charged off. The Company has charged-off all loans classified as loss.
 
Loans classified as special mention, substandard or doubtful are evaluated for potential impairment. All impaired loans are placed on non-accrual status and are classified as substandard or doubtful.

In order to assess and monitor the credit risk associated with one-to four-family residential loans and consumer loans which include second mortgage loans and home equity secured lines of credit, the Company relies upon the payment status of the loan. Mortgage and other consumer loans 90 days or more past due are placed on non-accrual status and evaluated for impairment on a pooled basis with the exception of loans with balances in excess of $1 million. An individual impairment analysis is performed using a recent appraisal or current sales contract for mortgage and consumer loans with balances in excess of $1 million that are 90 days or more past due.

Loans receivable includes certain loans that have been modified in a trouble debt restructuring (TDR), where economic concessions have been granted to borrowers experiencing financial difficulties. The objective for granting the concessions is to maximize the recovery of the investment in the loan and may include reductions in the interest rate, payment extensions, forgiveness of interest or principal, forbearance or other actions. TDRs are classified as nonperforming at the time of restructuring and typically return to performing status after considering the borrower’s repayment performance for a reasonable period of time, usually six months.

Loans modified in a TDR are evaluated for impairment similar to other impaired loans based on the present value of expected cash flows or the fair value of the underlying collateral less selling costs for collateral dependent loans. If the value of the modified loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan, impairment is recognized through an increase to the allowance for loan losses. In periods subsequent to modification, TDRs are evaluated for possible additional impairment.

NOTE 8- FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The following table presents information about the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010. Fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. A fair value measurement hierarchy has been established for inputs in valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).

The fair value hierarchy levels are summarized below:

 
·
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 
·
Level 2 inputs are inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

 
·
Level 3 inputs are unobservable and contain assumptions of the party assessing the fair value of the asset or liability.

Determination of the appropriate level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement for the instrument or security.  Assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis segregated by fair value hierarchy level are summarized below:

Investment securities available for sale and mortgage-backed securities available for sale are valued primarily by a third party pricing agent. U.S. Government and federal agency and corporate debt securities are primarily priced through a multi-dimensional relational model, a Level 2 hierarchy, which incorporates dealer quotes and other market information including, defined sector breakdown, benchmark yields, base spread, yield to maturity, and corporate actions.  State and political subdivision securities are also valued within the Level 2 hierarchy using inputs with a series of matrices that reflect benchmark yields, ratings updates, and spread adjustments. Mortgage-backed securities include FHLMC, GNMA, and FNMA certificates and privately issued real estate mortgage investment conduits which are valued under a Level 2 hierarchy using a matrix correlation to benchmark yields, spread analysis, and prepayment speeds.

The fair value of forward loan sales is determined at the time the underlying loan is identified as held for sale with changes in fair value correlated to the change in secondary market loan pricing. The value is adjusted to reflect the Company’s historical loan “fallout” experience which incorporates such factors as changes in market rates, origination channels and loan purpose.

The following table presents additional information about assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis for which the Company has utilized Level 3 inputs to determine fair value:

Mortgage servicing rights
    -       878       -       878  

Impaired loans are evaluated and valued at the time the loan is identified as impaired, at the lower of the recorded investment in the loan or fair value. Real estate acquired through foreclosure is initially valued at the lower of the recorded investment in the loan or fair value at foreclosure less costs to sell and subsequently adjusted for further decreases in market value, if necessary.  Fair value is determined by using the value of the collateral securing the loans and is therefore classified as a Level 3 hierarchy.  The value of the real estate securing impaired loans and real estate acquired through foreclosure is based on appraisals prepared by qualified independent licensed appraisers contracted by the Company to perform the assessment.

The Company initially recognizes and measures servicing assets based on the fair value of the servicing right at the time the loan is sold. The Company uses the amortized cost method for subsequent measurement of its servicing assets and evaluates the recorded value for impairment quarterly. The Company retains a qualified valuation service to calculate the amortized cost and to determine the fair value of the mortgage servicing rights. The valuation service utilizes discounted cash flow analyses adjusted for prepayment speeds, market discount rates and conditions existing in the secondary servicing market. Hence, the fair value of mortgage servicing rights is deemed a Level 2 hierarchy. The amortized cost basis of the Company’s mortgage servicing rights was $954,000 and $997,000 at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The fair value of the mortgage servicing rights was $718,000 and $878,000 at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively and was included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets.

NOTE 9- FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

For the Bank, as for most financial institutions, the majority of its assets and liabilities are considered financial instruments. However, many such instruments lack an available trading market as characterized by a willing buyer and willing seller engaging in an exchange transaction. Also, it is the Company’s general practice and intent to hold its financial instruments to maturity or available for sale and to not engage in trading or significant sales activities. For fair value disclosure purposes, the Company substantially utilized the fair value measurement criteria as explained in Note 8- Fair Value Measurements. Additionally, the Company used significant estimations and present value calculations to prepare this disclosure.

Changes in the assumptions or methodologies used to estimate fair values may materially affect the estimated amounts. In addition, there may not be reasonable comparability between institutions due to the wide range of permitted assumptions and methodologies in the absence of active markets. This lack of uniformity gives rise to a high degree of subjectivity in estimating financial instrument fair values.

Fair values have been estimated using data which management considered the best available, as generally provided by estimation methodologies deemed suitable for the pertinent category of financial instrument. The estimation methodologies, resulting fair values and recorded carrying amounts are as follows:

The fair value of cash and cash equivalents equals historical book value. The fair value of investment securities is described and presented under fair value measurement guidelines as amended.

 NOTE 10- SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company has stock benefit plans that allow the Company to grant options and restricted stock to employees and directors. The awards, which have a term of up to 10 years when issued, vest over a three to five year period. The exercise price of each award equals the market price of the Company’s stock on the date of the grant. At September 30, 2011, there was $56,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost, net of estimated forfeitures, related to non-vested awards under the Company stock option plan. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 12.7 months. Option activity under the Company’s stock option plan as of September 30, 2011 was as follows:

NOTE 12 — ACCOUNTING STANDARDS UPDATE
 
In April 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an amendment to provide additional guidance or clarification to help creditors in determining whether a creditor has granted a concession and whether a debtor is experiencing financial difficulties for purposes of determining whether a restructuring constitutes a troubled debt restructuring.  The amendments are effective for the first interim or annual reporting period beginning on or after June 15, 2011, and should be applied retrospectively to the beginning annual period of adoption.  As a result of applying these amendments, an entity may identify receivables that are newly considered impaired.  For purposes of measuring impairment of those receivables, an entity should apply the amendments prospectively for the first interim or annual period beginning on or after June 15, 2011.  The Company has adopted the guidance and has included the required disclosures in Note7-Loans Receivable.

In April 2011, the FASB issued an accounting update to improve the accounting for repurchase agreements (repos) and other agreements that both entitle and obligate a transferor to repurchase or redeem financial assets before their maturity.  The amendments remove from the assessment of effective control (1) the criterion requiring the transferor to have the ability to repurchase or redeem the financial assets on substantially the agreed terms, even in the event of default by the transferee, and (2) the collateral maintenance implementation guidance related to that criterion.  The amendments apply to all entities, both public and nonpublic.  The amendments affect all entities that enter into agreements to transfer financial assets that both entitle and obligate the transferor to repurchase or redeem the financial assets before their maturity.  The guidance is effective for the first interim or annual period beginning on or after December 15, 2011 and should be applied prospectively to transactions or modifications of existing transactions that occur on or after the effective date.  Early adoption is not permitted.  This amendment is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements or results of operations.

In May 2011, the FASB issued, “Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRSs”).  The amendments result in common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs.  Consequently, the amendments change the wording used to describe many of the requirements in U.S. GAAP for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements.  The amendments are to be applied prospectively.  For public entities, the amendments are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011.  Early application by public entities is not permitted. This amendment is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements or results of operations.

In June 2011, the FASB issued, “Presentation of Comprehensive Income”.  The amendments improve the comparability, clarity, consistency, and transparency of financial reporting and increase the prominence of items reported in other comprehensive income.  To increase the prominence of items reported in other comprehensive income and to facilitate convergence of U.S. GAAP and IFRS, the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity was eliminated.  The amendments require that all non-owner changes in stockholders’ equity be presented either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements.  In the two-statement approach, the first statement should present total net income and its components followed consecutively by a second statement that should present total other comprehensive income, the components of other comprehensive income, and the total of comprehensive income.  All entities that report items of comprehensive income, in any period presented, will be affected by the changes.  For public entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011.  The amendments should be applied retrospectively, and early adoption is permitted. This amendment is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements or results of operations.

In September 2011, the FASB issued an accounting update, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other Topics (Topic 350), Testing Goodwill for Impairment”.  The objective of this update is to simplify how entities, both public and nonpublic, test goodwill for impairment.  The amendments in the Update permit an entity to first assess 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.  The more-likely-than-not threshold is defined as having a likelihood of more than 50 percent.  Under the amendments in this update, an entity is not required to calculate the fair value of a reporting unit unless the entity determines that it is more likely than not that its fair value is less than its carrying amount.  The amendments in this update apply to all entities, both public and nonpublic, that have goodwill reported in their financial statements and are effective for interim and annual goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011.  Early adoption is permitted, including for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed as of a date before September 15, 2011, if an entity’s financial statements for the most recent annual or interim period have not yet been issued or, for nonpublic entities, have not yet been made available for issuance.  This accounting update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

TF FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL POSITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

The Company may from time to time make written or oral “forward-looking statements”, including statements contained in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (including this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the exhibits thereto), in its reports to stockholders and in other communications by the Company, which are made in good faith by the Company pursuant to the “Safe Harbor” Provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, such as statements of the Company’s plans, objectives, expectations, estimates and intentions that are subject to change based on various important factors (some of which are beyond the Company’s control). The following factors, among others, could cause the Company’s financial performance to differ materially from the plans, objectives, expectations, estimates and intentions expressed in such forward-looking statements: the strength of the United States economy in general and the strength of the local economies in which the Company conducts operations; the effects of, and changes in, trade, monetary and fiscal policies and laws, including interest rate policies of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, inflation, interest rate, market and monetary fluctuations; the timely development of and acceptance of new products and services of the Company and the perceived overall value of these products and services by users, including the features, pricing and quality compared to competitors’ products and services; the willingness of users to substitute competitors’ products and services for the Company’s products and services; the success of the Company in gaining regulatory approval of its products and services, when required; the impact of changes in financial services’ laws and regulations (including laws concerning taxes, banking, securities and insurance); technological changes, acquisitions; changes in consumer spending and saving habits; and the success of the Company at managing the risks involved in the foregoing.

The Company cautions that the foregoing list of important factors is not exclusive. The Company does not undertake to update any forward-looking statement, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time by or on behalf of the Company.

Financial Position

The Company’s total assets at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 were $695.2 million and $691.8 million, respectively, representing an increase of $3.4 million during the nine-month period. Loans receivable, net increased by $2.5 million during the first nine months of 2011. Originations of consumer and single-family residential mortgage loans totaling $49.4 million and commercial loans totaling $26.6 million were offset by principal repayments of $68.1 million. The Company increased the allowance for loan losses by $2.9 million and transferred $2.4 million from loans to real estate acquired through foreclosure. Loans receivable held for sale increased $1.6 million as originations of loans for sale in the secondary market of $17.2 million were offset by of proceeds of $15.7 million from loan sales. Investment securities decreased by $7.0 million due to principal repayments received of $21.5 million, security sales of $4.8 million, security maturities of $3.9 million and net premium amortization of $200,000 that were offset by security purchases of $20.7 million and increases in the fair value of available for sale securities of $2.7 million. As a result of the Company’s cash-related activities, cash and cash equivalents increased by $7.0 million during the first nine months of 2011. The increase in other assets was caused by a foreclosure action against a single borrower that resulted in the acquisition of 35 residential properties totaling $1.4 million.  At September 30, 2011, real estate acquired through foreclosure totaled $8.9 million and was comprised of one parcel of unimproved raw land, a commercial property and 40 residential properties.

Total liabilities decreased by $0.7 million during the first nine months of 2011. Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank decreased by $2.5 million, the result of scheduled amortization and maturities of $20.0 million offset by the proceeds of long term advances of $6.6 million and short term borrowings of $10.9 million. Deposit balances increased $1.5 million during the period with checking, money market and savings accounts increasing by $20.2 million while retail certificates of deposit decreased $18.7 million.

Total consolidated stockholders’ equity of the Company was $77.5 million or 11.2% of total assets at September 30, 2011.  At September 30, 2011, there were approximately 102,000 shares available for repurchase under the previously announced share repurchase plan.

Non-performing loans secured by one-to four-family residential properties include a loan with a balance of $1.9 million secured by a residential property. The borrower has listed the property for sale and will apply the proceeds toward the outstanding loan balance. A recent appraisal indicates a fair value in excess of the recorded investment in the loan. The Bank has initiated foreclosure proceedings. In addition, this category also includes a loan with a balance of $1.3 million for which the Bank has allocated $217,000 of the allowance for loan losses to this loan, equal to the difference between the loan balance and the fair value less estimated selling costs.

Non-performing construction loans include a loan with a balance of $2.4 million, secured by a largely completed commercial office building, and the personal guarantee of the borrowers. The Bank has allocated $1.2 million of the allowance for loan losses to this loan, equal to the difference between the loan balance plus other acquisition costs and the fair value based upon a recent appraisal less estimated costs to sell. On October 19, 2011, the Bank acquired the property through foreclosure and is in the process of listing the property for sale.  The charge to the allowance is anticipated to approximate the amount that the Bank has allocated to this loan.

Also included in construction loans is a loan with a balance of $1.5 million secured by two contiguous parcels of commercial real estate and a lien on the guarantor’s personal residence.  The Bank has allocated to this loan $0.9 million of the allowance for loan losses, equal to the difference between the loan balance plus other acquisition costs and the fair value based upon a recent appraisal less estimated costs to sell. The Bank has initiated foreclosure proceedings and the borrower has filed for bankruptcy protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.

Construction loans also include a loan with a balance of $1.8 million secured by five contiguous lots approved for construction of commercial and residential buildings. The Bank allocated $0.7 million of the allowance for loan losses equal to the difference between the loan balance and a recent appraisal. The borrower is attempting to sell the properties and apply the proceeds towards the outstanding loan balance.

Commercial-business loans secured by real estate include a loan with a balance of $2.6 million secured by a parcel of vacant land approved for townhome development. The Bank has allocated $0.9 million of the allowance for loan losses to the loan, equal to the difference between the loan balance plus other acquisition costs and the fair value based upon a recent appraisal less estimated costs to sell.  On November 1, 2011 the Bank acquired the property through foreclosure and is in the process of listing the property for sale.

Commercial-business, real estate secured loans also include two loans, with a combined balance of $2.0 million secured by a parcel of land.  The borrower is attempting to sell the property and intends to apply the sale proceeds to the outstanding loan balance.  A recent appraisal of the property indicates that the appraised value less selling cost is in excess of the loan balances.

With respect to each of the remaining non-performing loans, the Bank is taking appropriate steps to resolve the individual situations.

Foreclosed property at September 30, 2011 included 42 parcels of real estate with a combined carrying value of $8.9 million. During the second quarter of 2011, the Bank completed foreclosure proceedings on 4 loans that were secured by 35 residential rental properties located in the greater Philadelphia area. Subsequent to foreclosure the Bank was able to gain access to the properties to ascertain physical inspection and appraisals of the properties. The recording of the fair value of these properties resulted in a charge to the allowance for loan loss of $1.0 million.  Also during 2011, the Bank foreclosed on a home equity loan secured by a single family dwelling valued at $0.8 million which resulted in a charge to the allowance of $0.2 million. During the first nine months of 2011, the Bank sold three single family dwellings acquired through foreclosure with a recorded value of $0.7 million which approximated the carrying value of the assets. All foreclosed properties are listed or are in the process of being listed with real estate agents for sale in a timely manner. Foreclosed real estate is included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheet.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The Bank provides valuation allowances for estimated losses from uncollectible loans. The allowance is increased by provisions charged to expense and reduced by net charge-offs. On a quarterly basis, the Company prepares an allowance for loan losses (ALLL) analysis. In the analysis, the loan portfolio is segmented into groups of homogeneous loans that share similar risk characteristics: non-residential or non-owner occupied residential real estate, commercial construction, commercial business, single family residential, and consumer which is predominately real estate secured junior liens and home equity lines of credit. Each segment is assigned reserve factors based on quantitative and qualitative measurements. In addition, the Bank reviews its internally classified loans, its loans classified for regulatory purposes, delinquent loans, and other relevant information in order to isolate loans for further scrutiny as potentially impaired loans.

Quantitative factors include an actual expected loss factor based on historical loss experience over a relevant look-back period. Quantitative factors also include the Bank’s actual risk ratings for the commercial loan segments as determined in accordance with loan review and loan grading policies and procedures, and additional factors as determined by management to be representative of additional risk due to the loan’s geographic location, type, and other attributes. These quantitative factors are adjusted if necessary, up or down, based on actual experience and an evaluation of the qualitative factors.

Qualitative factors are based upon: (1) changes in lending policies and procedures, including but not limited to changes in underwriting standards and collection, charge-off, and recovery practices not considered elsewhere in estimating credit losses; (2) changes in international, national, regional, and local economic and business conditions and developments that affect the collectability of the portfolio, including the condition of various market segments; (3) changes in the nature and volume of the portfolio and in the terms of loans; (4) changes in the experience, ability, and depth of lending management and other relevant staff; (5) changes in the volume and severity of past due loans, the volume of nonaccrual loans, and the volume and severity of adversely classified or graded loans; (6) changes in the quality of the loan review system; (7) changes in the value of underlying collateral for collateral dependent loans; (8) the existence and effect of any concentration of credit, and changes in the level of such concentrations; and (9) the effect of other external factors such as competition and legal and regulatory requirements on the level of estimated credit losses in the existing loan portfolio.
 
Potentially impaired loans selected for individual evaluation are reviewed in accordance with US GAAP which governs the accounting for impaired assets, and consideration of regulatory guidance regarding treatment of troubled, collateral dependent loans. Each potentially impaired loan is evaluated using all available information such as recent appraisals, whether the loan is currently on accrual or non-accrual status, discounted cash flow analyses, guarantor financial strength, the value of additional collateral, and the loan’s and borrower’s past performance to determine whether in management’s best judgment it is probable that the Bank will be unable to collect all contractual interest and principal in accordance with the loan’s terms. Loans deemed impaired are generally assigned a reserve derived from the value of the underlying collateral. Loans deemed not to be impaired are assigned a reserve factor based upon the segment from which they were selected.

The ALLL needed as a result of the foregoing evaluations is compared with the unadjusted amount, and an adjustment is made by means of a provision charged to expense for loan losses. Recognizing the inherently imprecise nature of the loss estimates and the large number of assumptions needed in order to perform the analysis, the required reserve may be less than the actual level of reserves at the end of any evaluation period, and thus there may be an unallocated portion of the ALLL. Management adjusts the unallocated portion to an amount which management considers reasonable under the circumstances.

Rate/Volume Analysis

The following table presents, for the periods indicated, the change in interest income and interest expense (in thousands) attributed to (i) changes in volume (changes in the weighted average balance of the total interest earning asset and interest bearing liability portfolios multiplied by the prior year rate), and (ii) changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior year volume). Changes attributable to the combined impact of volume and rate have been allocated proportionately based on the absolute value of changes due to volume and changes due to rate.

Tax equivalent adjustments to interest on investment securities were $166,000 and $142,000 for the quarters ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Tax equivalent interest income is based upon a marginal effective tax rate of 34%.

Total Interest Income. Total interest income, on a taxable equivalent basis, decreased by $418,000 or 4.9% to $8.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 compared with the third quarter of 2010. Interest income from loans receivable decreased by $353,000, the result of a $19.6 million decrease in the average balance of loans outstanding plus a decrease in the average yield on loans of 7 basis points. The decrease in the yield was caused by the effect of new loans added to the portfolio with a lower yield than the existing portfolio loans that matured or refinanced. Interest income from mortgage-backed securities was lower in the quarter in comparison to the same period of 2010 mainly because principal repayments and sales of $31.0 million exceeded purchases of $19.6 million during the intervening period. Additionally, the yield associated with repayments was higher than the yield on newly purchased mortgage-backed securities. Interest income from investment securities was higher as purchases of $13.3 million of investments exceeded sales and maturities of investment securities totaling $7.5 million during the intervening period.

Total Interest Expense. Total interest expense decreased by $585,000 to $1.9 million during the three-month period ended September 30, 2011 as compared with the corresponding quarter of 2010. The average interest rates paid on the Bank’s deposits were 23 basis points lower in 2011 due to the maturity of certificates of deposit with higher interest rates than current market rates offered on the products into which the maturing CDs were renewed or reinvested. Interest expense associated with borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank decreased $258,000 between the third quarter of 2011 and 2010. During the intervening period, the Bank reduced its average outstanding borrowings by $20.4 million including the maturity of higher rate advances, thus the cost of funds of the remaining outstanding advances was 43 basis points lower.




 
31



Non-interest income. Total non-interest income was $329,000 for the third quarter of 2011 compared with $927,000 for the same period in 2010.  Net losses resulting from valuation adjustments and disposition of real estate acquired through foreclosure totaled $254,000 while there were no such losses in the third quarter of 2010. Gain on the sale of loans in the secondary market was $228,000 lower in the third quarter of 2011 when compared to the same quarter of 2010. Service fees and other charges decreased $106,000 between the quarters. Fair value adjustments to mortgage servicing rights reduced loan servicing income between the quarters by $121,000.

Non-interest expense. Total non-interest expense increased by $185,000 to $4.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010. Employee compensation and benefits increased $315,000 mainly because various bonus and incentive compensation programs for 2010 were suspended in the third quarter of 2010 resulting in a reversal of $235,000 of compensation previously expensed through June 30, 2010. During 2011, such plans have not been suspended and $121,000 for these plans was included in compensation and benefits expense during the third quarter of 2011. Professional fees increased $67,000 between the two periods due to increased legal costs associated with non-performing loans and foreclosures of $33,000 and professional services associated with the holding company consultants of $32,000. Other operating expense increased $33,000 as a result of increased costs of $52,000 associated with maintenance of real estate acquired through foreclosure. FDIC insurance premiums decreased by $91,000 between the two quarters due to a change in the method of premium assessment. Prior to the second quarter, premium assessment was based solely on deposit balances whereas beginning in the second quarter of 2011 under the new rules, the deposit insurance assessment base will be a bank's average total assets less its average tangible equity, with adjustments for brokered deposits and unsecured debt. Office and occupancy costs decreased $75,000 in part due to the relocation of retail support services from a rented facility to a bank owned office. Marketing and advertising expenses decreased $64,000 between the two quarters as marketing-related activities were streamlined during the period.

Income tax expense. The Company’s effective tax rate was 22.5% for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 compared to 27.0% for the quarter ended September 30, 2010. These effective tax rates are lower than the Company’s marginal tax rate of 34% largely due to the tax-exempt income associated with the Company’s investments in tax-exempt municipal bonds and bank-owned life insurance.

Rate/Volume Analysis

The following table presents, for the periods indicated, the change in interest income and interest expense (in thousands) attributed to (i) changes in volume (changes in the weighted average balance of the total interest earning asset and interest bearing liability portfolios multiplied by the prior year rate), and (ii) changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior year volume). Changes attributable to the combined impact of volume and rate have been allocated proportionately based on the absolute value of changes due to volume and changes due to rate.

Tax equivalent adjustments to interest on investment securities were $495,000 and $418,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Tax equivalent interest income is based upon a marginal effective tax rate of 34%.

Total Interest Income. Total interest income, on a taxable equivalent basis, decreased by $1.8 million or 6.9% to $24.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared with the first nine months of 2010. Interest income from loans receivable decreased by $1.5 million, the result of a $23.7 million decrease in the average balance of loans outstanding plus a decrease in the average yield on loans of 15 basis points. The decrease in the yield was caused by an increase in non-performing loans between the periods which reduced interest income from loans by $253,000.  Also, new loans added to the portfolio during the period have a lower yield than the existing portfolio loans that matured or refinanced.  Interest income from mortgage-backed securities was lower in 2011 in comparison to the same period of 2010 mainly because principal repayments and sales of $21.1 million exceeded purchases of $19.6 million during the intervening period. Additionally, the yield associated with repayments was higher than the yield on newly purchased mortgage-backed securities. Interest income from investment securities was higher as a result of purchases of $13.3 million of higher yielding investments that exceeded sales and maturities of $7.5 million during the intervening period resulting in an increase in the yield of 24 basis points.

Total Interest Expense. Total interest expense decreased by $2.1 million to $5.9 million during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011 as compared with the same period in 2010. The average interest rates paid on the Bank’s deposits were 30 basis points lower in 2011 due to the maturity of certificates of deposit with higher interest rates than current market rates offered on the products into which the maturing CDs were renewed or reinvested. Interest expense associated with borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank decreased $835,000 between 2010 and 2011. During the intervening period, the Bank reduced its average outstanding borrowings by $21.0 million, including the maturity of higher rate advances, thus the cost of funds of the remaining outstanding advances was 47 basis points lower.

Non-interest income. Total non-interest income was $2.0 million for the first nine months of 2011 compared with $2.1 million for the same period in 2010. Gain on the sale of loans in the secondary market was $173,000 lower in 2011 when compared to the same period of 2010. Net losses resulting from valuation adjustments and disposition of real estate acquired through foreclosure were $117,000 greater in 2011 versus 2010. Offsetting these decreases was a gain on the sale of investment securities which was $203,000 higher in 2011.

Non-interest expense. Total non-interest expense increased by $588,000 to $14.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010. Employee compensation and benefits increased $316,000 mainly because various bonus and incentive compensation programs for 2010 were suspended in the third quarter of 2010 resulting in a reversal of $235,000 of compensation previously expensed through June 30, 2010. During 2011, such plans have not been suspended and $239,000 for these plans was included in compensation and benefits expense during 2011. Professional fees increased $385,000 between the two periods as legal costs associated with non-performing loans and foreclosures increased $182,000.  Additionally, legal and professional costs were incurred in connection with the Company’s reincorporation in Pennsylvania, the cost of distributing a 5% stock dividend in the first quarter of 2011 and the implementation of the director’ s stock compensation plan. Other operating expense increased $185,000 mainly because of increased appraisal costs associated with nonperforming loans and costs to maintain and liquidate real estate acquired through foreclosure. In contrast, FDIC insurance premiums decreased by $160,000 between the two periods due to change in the method of premium assessment.  Prior to the second quarter of 2011, premium assessment was based solely on deposit balances whereas beginning in the second quarter of 2011 under the new rules, the deposit insurance assessment base will be a bank's average total assets less its average tangible equity, with adjustments for brokered deposits and unsecured debt.  Also, marketing and advertising expenses decreased $135,000 between the two periods as marketing-related activities were streamlined during the period.

Income tax expense. The Company’s effective tax rate was 17.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to 24.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. These effective tax rates are lower than the Company’s marginal tax rate of 34% largely due to the tax-exempt income associated with the Company’s investments in tax-exempt municipal bonds and bank-owned life insurance.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
Liquidity

The Bank’s liquidity is a measure of its ability to fund loans, pay withdrawals of deposits, and other cash outflows in an efficient, cost-effective manner. The Bank’ short-term sources of liquidity include maturities, repayment and sales of assets, excess cash and cash equivalents, new deposits, broker deposits, other borrowings, and new borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank and the Federal Reserve Bank. There has been no material adverse change during the three-month period ended September 30, 2011 in the ability of the Bank and its subsidiaries to fund their operations.

At September 30, 2011, the Bank had commitments outstanding under letters of credit of $0.7 million, commitments to originate loans of $15.1 million, and commitments to fund undisbursed balances of closed loans and unused lines of credit of $49.2 million. At September 30, 2011, the Bank had $6.0 million in outstanding commitments to sell loans. There has been no material change during the three months ended September 30, 2011 in any of the Bank’s other contractual obligations or commitments to make future payments.

The Company’s primary sources of liquidity are dividends from the Bank, principal and interest payments received from a loan made to the Bank’s Employee Stock Ownership Plan, and tax benefits arising from the use of the Company’s tax deductions by other members of its consolidated group pursuant to a tax sharing agreement. The Company is dependent upon these sources and cash on hand which totaled approximately $1.5 million at September 30, 2011 in order to fund its operations and pay the dividend to its shareholders. There has been no material adverse change in the ability of the Company to fund its operations during the three-month period ended September 30, 2011.

Capital Requirements

The Bank was in compliance with all of its capital requirements as of September 30, 2011.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Certain critical accounting policies of the Company require the use of significant judgment and accounting estimates in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements and related data of the Company. These accounting estimates require management to make assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the accounting estimate is made. Management believes that the most critical accounting policy requiring the use of accounting estimates and judgment is the determination of the allowance for loan losses. If the financial position of a significant amount of debtors or the value of the collateral securing the loans should deteriorate more than the Company has estimated, the present allowance for loan losses may be insufficient and additional provisions for loan losses may be required. The allowance for loan losses was approximately $9.6 million at September 30, 2011.
