8 Recessionary conditions roiling our nation’s economy reached New York City in 2009. Carver was severely impacted as its core business had historically been real estate lending, including affordable construction participations The Company generated its first operating loss in FY10*, after seven profitable years. In addition, the Company’s losses have continued through the first quarter of FY12. These losses stem from: – increased provisions for loan losses – write downs and charge offs of loans, as property values declined and defaults increased As a result, the Company suspended its common stock dividend in the 2nd quarter of FY11, to preserve capital Stockholders’ equity was further diminished by a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets of $20.7 million in the 2nd quarter of FY11 The Office of Thrift Supervision issued a Cease and Desist Order on February 7, 2011, ordering the Bank to increase capital ratios, among other things The Company’s stock price has declined to historic lows *In fiscal year 2009 the Company reported a $7.0 million loss driven principally by a non-cash charge off of $7.1 million of goodwill Review of FY11 – FY12 Milestones
