PART I

 

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

In February 1998, HopFed Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) issued and sold 4,033,625 shares of common stock, par value $.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), in connection with the conversion of Hopkinsville Federal Savings Bank (the “Bank”) from a federal mutual savings bank to a federal stock savings bank and the issuance of the Bank’s capital stock to the Company. The conversion of the Bank, the acquisition of all of the outstanding capital stock of the Bank by the Company and the issuance and sale of the Common Stock are collectively referred to herein as the “Conversion.” In February 2001, the Bank changed its name to Hopkinsville Federal Bank. On May 14, 2002, the Bank changed its name to Heritage Bank.

HopFed Bancorp, Inc.

HopFed Bancorp, Inc. was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware in May 1997 at the direction of the Board of Directors of the Bank for the purpose of serving as a savings and loan holding company of the Bank upon the acquisition of all of the capital stock issued by the Bank in the Conversion. The Company’s assets primarily consist of the outstanding capital stock of the Bank. The Company’s principal business is overseeing the business of the Bank. The Company has registered with the Office of Thrift Supervision (“OTS”) as a savings and loan holding company. See “Regulation – Regulation of the Company.”

As a holding company, the Company has greater flexibility than the Bank to diversify its business activities through existing or newly formed subsidiaries or through acquisition or merger with other financial institutions, although the Company currently does not have any plans, agreements, arrangements or understandings with respect to any such acquisitions or mergers. The Company is classified as a unitary savings and loan holding company and is subject to regulation by the OTS. The Company’s executive offices are located at 4155 Lafayette Road, Hopkinsville, Kentucky 42240, and its main telephone number is (270) 887-2999. The Company’s mailing address is P.O. Box 537, Hopkinsville, Kentucky 42241-0537.

Heritage Bank

The Bank is a federally chartered stock savings bank headquartered in Hopkinsville, Kentucky, with branch offices in Hopkinsville, Murray, Cadiz, Elkton, Fulton, Calvert City and Benton in western Kentucky and Ashland City, Clarksville, Erin, Kingston Springs and Pleasant View in middle Tennessee. The Bank was incorporated by the Commonwealth of Kentucky in 1879 under the name Hopkinsville Building and Loan Association. In 1940, the Bank converted to a federal mutual savings association and received federal insurance of its deposit accounts. In 1983, the Bank became a federal mutual savings bank. On May 14, 2002, the Bank changed its name from Hopkinsville Federal Bank to Heritage Bank. The primary market area of the Bank consists of the adjacent counties of Calloway, Christian, Todd, Trigg, Fulton, and Marshall located in southwestern Kentucky, Obion and Weakley counties located in northwestern Tennessee and Cheatham, Houston, and Montgomery counties located in middle Tennessee.

The business of the Bank primarily consists of attracting deposits from the general public and investing such deposits in loans secured by single family residential real estate and investment securities, including U.S. Government and agency securities, municipal and corporate bonds, collateralized mortgages obligations (CMO’s), and mortgage-backed securities. The Bank also originates single-family residential/construction loans and multi-family and commercial real estate loans, as well as loans secured by deposits, other consumer loans and commercial loans. The Bank originates residential and non-residential real estate loans with adjustable interest rates and other assets which are responsive to changes in interest rates and allow the Bank to more closely match the interest rate maturation of its assets and liabilities. Furthermore, the Bank continues to focus on diversifying its loan portfolio to include more commercial and small business loans, which typically provide higher yields as compared to real estate loans.

Growth Opportunities

In December 2006, the Bank opened its first retail banking office in Clarksville, Montgomery County, Tennessee. By September 2007, the Bank will operate three retail banking offices in Clarksville. It is the Company’s opinion that the Clarksville market is an important part of the Company’s future due to its high growth trends and favorable demographics. The Clarksville MSA has been identified as a top twenty MSA for growth in several national publications. The Clarksville market is highly competitive but fragmented, with no fewer than seven banks having a minimum 10% deposit market share. The Company anticipates modest deposit growth in the first two years as the Bank’s focus remains on growing the number and balances of transaction accounts while servicing a profitable loan portfolio.

In 2006, the Bank acquired the assets of Preferred Mortgage of Clarksville, Tennessee and re-branded it as Heritage Mortgage Services. Heritage Mortgage Services maintains mortgage originators in several of the Company’s markets. Heritage Mortgage Services, a division of Heritage Bank, provides a wide variety of mortgage products to the marketplace in a timely, efficient, and profitable manner.

The Bank operates Heritage Solutions in Murray, Kentucky and Dickson, Tennessee. Heritage Solutions is a division of Heritage Bank providing full service financial products and services including property and casualty insurance, brokerage services, and fixed and variable annuities. Agents of Heritage Solutions in both Dickson and Murray travel throughout the Bank’s various retail locations to meet customer needs.

The Bank owns Fall and Fall Insurance Agency, a full service provider of life and property insurance in Fulton, Kentucky. Fall and Fall is a licensed agent in both Tennessee and Kentucky.

The following chart outlines the Bank’s market share in its five largest markets individually at June 30, 2003, 2004, 2005 2006 according to information provided by the FDIC Market Share Report:

 

     At June 30  
     2003     2004     2005     2006  

Cheatham (a)

   27.2 %   21.4 %   21.9 %   16.0 %

Calloway

   11.8 %   11.8 %   12.1 %   11.8 %

Christian

   19.7 %   17.8 %   20.7 %   19.6 %

Fulton

   51.9 %   55.0 %   53.4 %   54.2 %

Marshall

   7.5 %   8.9 %   9.4 %   11.3 %

(a) Represents the market share reported by AmSouth Bank in Cheatham County, Tennessee for 2003, 2004, and 2005. These deposits were purchased by Heritage Bank on June 29, 2006.

The majority of the Bank’s markets continue to provide growth opportunities for both loans and deposits, as customers are dissatisfied with national and regional banks that have entered the market via acquisitions as well as economic growth in the Bank’s higher growth markets. The Bank’s internet banking web site with free bill pay, www.bankwithheritage.com, has been a huge success with approximately 6,700 customers participating at December 31, 2006 as compared to 2,400 on-line customer’s at December 31, 2005.

On June 29, 2006, the Bank completed the acquisition of four retail offices previously owned by AmSouth Bank located in Cheatham and Houston counties in middle Tennessee. The acquisition was attractive to the Company for several reasons. The most immediate benefit from the transaction was the loan and deposit mix acquired in the new offices. At June 30, 2006, approximately 21% of the $65.5 million in deposits purchased were non-interest bearing checking accounts while time deposits accounted for 39% of deposits purchased. That compares favorable with the Company’s deposit mix at March 31, 2006, whereas 8.0% of deposits were held in non-interest bearing accounts and 58% of deposits were held in time deposits. The Company’s goal is to increase the amount of demand deposits in relation to total deposits, thereby reducing its cost of funds and improving its net interest margin. The majority of purchased loans are prime based variable rate home equity loans, both closed and open ended. These loans are also favorable priced with the potential for new advances, allowing the Bank to increase loans outstanding without the need for additional originations.

Another important aspect of the middle Tennessee acquisition is the location of the retail offices acquired. The Bank’s three Cheatham County offices are located within the Nashville, Tennessee Metropolitan Statistical Area (Nashville MSA), among the fastest growing communities of its size in the nation. Cheatham County, and to a lesser extent Houston County, are participating in this growth which is likely to continue into the foreseeable future. The Company views this acquisition as a cost efficient entry point into the Nashville MSA. In the last fifteen months, the Nashville MSA banking marketplace has experienced a substantial amount of consolidation as four banks have been sold. The Company anticipates that the unsettled nature involved in the marketplace will provide opportunities to attract both experienced talent and expand the Bank’s customer base as customers impacted by recent acquisitions search for local banking alternatives.

While there are ample opportunities for the Company to grow in its current markets, the Company may have the opportunity to expand into new markets with either bank acquisitions, branch acquisitions, or de novo branching. The Company continues to view the communities located within or in close proximity to the Nashville MSA as highly desirable and will continue to seek growth opportunities in this market. However, the Company will not limit itself to growth opportunities within the Nashville MSA and will evaluate all opportunities when they become available and pursue those opportunities that fit into the business plan of the Company. The Company is interested in those opportunities that provide a desirable deposit mix in markets with the potential for average to above average levels of growth.

In 2007, the Company’s focus will center on growing its demand deposit and non-interest bearing deposit accounts in an effort to reduce its cost of funds. At the same time, it is the Company’s intent to reduce the size of the investment portfolio relative to total assets. In 2007, the Company anticipates that the investment portfolio will provide over $45 million in cash flow. The Company’s intent is to utilize this cash flow to fund loan growth, reduce its borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati, and/or reduce total time deposits. This strategy may result in low or negative asset growth in 2007. However, given the current banking challenges provided by a flat interest rate yield curve, it is management’s opinion that this strategy is in the best short and long term interests of the Company.

Available Information

The Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, and all amendments thereto, are available on the Company’s website as soon as reasonably practicable after the reports are filed with or furnished to the SEC. Copies can be obtained free of charge in the “Investor Relations” section of the Company’s website at www.bankwithheritage.com.

Stock Repurchases

In August 2006, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had approved the repurchase of up to 125,000 shares of its common stock, replacing a previously announced stock repurchase plan approved in March of 2001. The purchases are being made from time to time on the NASDAQ Stock Market at prices prevailing on that market or in privately negotiated transactions at management’s discretion, depending on market conditions, price of the Company’s common stock, corporate cash requirements and other factors. As of March 15, 2007, a total of 43,500 shares have been repurchased in the current plan, including 33,500 shares in 2006. At March 15, 2007, a total of 452,409 shares of common stock had been repurchased. Under the current repurchase plan, the Company can purchase an additional 81,500 shares of common stock.

Lending Activities

General. The total gross loan portfolio totaled $499.4 million at December 31, 2006, representing 64.8% of total assets at that date. Substantially all loans are originated in the Bank’s market area. At December 31, 2006, $225.9 million, or 45.2% of the loan portfolio, consisted of one-to-four family, residential mortgage loans. Other loans secured by real estate include non-residential real estate loans, which amounted to $ 147.1 million, or 29.4% of the loan portfolio at December 31, 2006, and multi-family residential loans, which were $ 12.0 million, or 2.4% of the loan portfolio at December 31, 2006. At December 31, 2006, construction loans were $ 39.4 million, or 7.9% of the loan portfolio, and total consumer and commercial loans totaled $ 75.1 million, or 15.1% of the loan portfolio.

Scheduled contractual principal repayments of loans do not reflect the actual life of such assets. The average life of loans is substantially less than their contractual terms because of prepayments. In addition, due-on-sale clauses on loans generally give the lender the right to declare a loan immediately due and payable in the event, among other things, that the borrower sells the real property subject to the mortgage and the loan is not repaid. The average life of mortgage loans tends to increase when current mortgage loan market rates are substantially higher than rates on existing mortgage loans and, conversely, decrease when current mortgage loan market rates are substantially lower than rates on existing mortgage loans.

Originations, Purchases and Sales of Loans. The Bank generally has authority to originate and purchase loans secured by real estate located throughout the United States. Consistent with its emphasis on being a community-oriented financial institution, the Bank conducts substantially all of its lending activities in its market area.

The following table sets forth certain information with respect to loan origination activity for the periods indicated.

Loan originations are derived from a number of sources, including existing customers, referrals by real estate agents, depositors and borrowers and advertising, as well as walk-in customers. Solicitation programs consist of advertisements in local media, in addition to occasional participation in various community organizations and events. Real estate loans are originated by the Bank’s loan personnel. All of the loan personnel are salaried, and are not compensated on a commission basis for loans originated. Loan applications are accepted at any of the Bank’s branches.

Loan Underwriting Policies. Lending activities are subject to written, non-discriminatory underwriting standards and to loan origination procedures prescribed by the Board of Directors and its management. Detailed loan applications are obtained to determine the ability of borrowers to repay, and the more significant items on these applications are verified through the use of credit reports, financial statements and confirmations. Loan requests exceeding loan officer limits must be approved by the loan committee or Board of Directors. In addition, the full Board of Directors reviews all loans on a monthly basis.

Generally, upon receipt of a loan application from a prospective borrower, a credit report and verifications are ordered to confirm specific information relating to the loan applicant’s employment, income and credit standing. If a proposed loan is to be secured by a mortgage on real estate, an appraisal of the real estate is undertaken by an appraiser approved by the Board of Directors and licensed or certified (as necessary) by the Commonwealth of Kentucky or the State of Tennessee.

In the case of one-to-four family residential mortgage loans, except when the Bank becomes aware of a particular risk of environmental contamination, the Bank generally does not obtain a formal environmental report on the real estate at the time a loan is made. A formal environmental report may be required in connection with nonresidential real estate loans.

It is the Bank’s policy to record a lien on the real estate securing a loan and to obtain a title opinion from Kentucky counsel who provides that the property is free of prior encumbrances and other possible title defects. Borrowers must also obtain hazard insurance policies prior to closing and, when the property is in a flood hazard area, pay flood insurance policy premiums.

The majority of real estate loan applications are underwritten and closed in accordance with the Bank’s own lending guidelines, which generally do not conform to secondary market guidelines. Although such loans may not be readily saleable in the secondary market, management believes that, if necessary, such loans may be sold to private investors.

The Bank offers a fixed rate loan program with maturities of 15, 20, and 30 years. These loans are underwritten and closed in accordance with secondary market standards. These loans are originated with the intent to sell on the secondary market. The Bank offers both servicing retained and servicing released products in an attempt to meet the needs of our customers. At December 31, 2006, the Bank’s 1-4 family loan servicing portfolio was approximately $42.1 million dollars.

The Bank is permitted to lend up to 100% of the appraised value of the real property securing a mortgage loan. The Bank is required by federal regulations to obtain private mortgage insurance on that portion of the principal amount of any loan that is greater than 90% of the appraised value of the property. Under its lending policies, the Bank will originate a one-to-four family residential mortgage loan for owner-occupied property with a loan-to-value ratio of up to 95%. For residential properties that are not owner-occupied, the Bank generally does not lend more than 80% of the appraised value. For all residential mortgage loans, the Bank may increase its lending level on a case-by-case basis, provided that the excess amount is insured with private mortgage insurance. Exceptions to this policy must be approved by the loan committee or the Board of Directors. At December 31, 2006, the Bank held approximately $5.9 million of 1-4 family residential mortgages with a loan to value ratio exceeding 90% without private mortgage insurance. At December 31, 2006, none of these loans were past due more than 30 days.

Under applicable law, with certain limited exceptions, loans and extensions of credit outstanding by a savings institution to a person at one time shall not exceed 15% of the institution’s unimpaired capital and surplus. Loans and extensions of credit fully secured by readily marketable collateral may comprise an additional 10% of unimpaired capital and surplus. Applicable law additionally authorizes savings institutions to make loans to one borrower, for any purpose, in an amount not to exceed the lesser of $30.0 million or 30% of unimpaired capital and surplus to develop residential housing, provided certain requirements are satisfied. Under these limits, the Bank’s loans to one borrower were limited to $8.6 million at December 31, 2006. At that date, the Bank had no lending relationships in excess of the loans-to-one-borrower limit. At December 31, 2006, the Bank has three individual customers with an aggregate lending relationship in excess of $8.0 million. The first customer is a local grain elevator with the loan proceeds used in the normal course of business for a grain elevator and are secured by nonresidential real estate, inventory and accounts receivable. The second customer is a developer of single-family residential homes and subdivisions secured by improved and unimproved residential lots and one to four family homes under various stages of construction. The third customer is a local governmental agency guaranteed by a large national corporation and is secured by commercial real estate. All loans within these relationships were current and performing in accordance with their terms at December 31, 2006.

Interest rates charged by the Bank on loans are affected principally by competitive factors, the demand for such loans and the supply of funds available for lending purposes. These factors are, in turn, affected by general economic conditions, monetary policies of the federal government, including the Federal Reserve Board, legislative tax policies and government budgetary matters.

One-to-four Family Residential Lending. The Bank historically has been and continues to be an originator of one-to-four family residential real estate loans in its market area. At December 31, 2006, one-to-four family residential mortgage loans totaled approximately $225.9 million, or 45.2% of the Bank’s loan portfolio. The Bank originated approximately $ 3.8 million in loans that were sold or may be sold in the secondary market with servicing retained and $5.5 million in loans were sold in the secondary market with servicing released. At December 31, 2006, the Bank had $692,000 in one-to-four family residential real estate loans past due more than ninety days.

The Bank primarily originates residential mortgage loans with adjustable rates. As of December 31, 2006, 78.8% of one-to-four family mortgage loans in the Bank’s loan portfolio carried adjustable rates or mature within one year. Such loans are primarily for terms of 25 years, although the Bank does occasionally originate adjustable rate mortgages for 15, 20 and 30 year terms, in each case amortized on a monthly basis with principal and interest due each month. The interest rates on these mortgages are adjusted once per year, with a maximum adjustment of 1% per adjustment period and a maximum aggregate adjustment of 5% over the life of the loan. Prior to August 1, 1997, rate adjustments on the Bank’s adjustable rate loans were indexed to a rate which adjusted annually based upon changes in an index based on the National Monthly Median Cost of Funds, plus a margin of 2.75%. Because the National Monthly Median Cost of Funds is a lagging index, which results in rates changing at a slower pace than rates generally in the marketplace, the Bank changed to a one-year Treasury bill constant maturity (“One Year CMT”), which the Bank believes reflects more current market information and thus allows the Bank to react more quickly to changes in the interest rate environment. In mid 2004, the Bank increased its margin on its adjustable rate loans to 3.00%. However, the vast majority of the current adjustable rate portfolio maintains a margin of 2.75% over the One Year CMT.

The retention of adjustable rate loans in the Bank’s portfolio helps reduce, but does not eliminate, the Bank’s exposure to increases in prevailing market interest rates. However, there are unquantifiable credit risks resulting from potential increases in costs to borrowers in the event of upward repricing of adjustable-rate loans. It is possible that during periods of rising interest rates, the risk of default on adjustable rate loans may increase due to increases in interest costs to borrowers. Further, although adjustable rate loans allow the Bank to increase the sensitivity of its interest-earning assets to changes in interest rates, the extent of this interest sensitivity is limited by the initial fixed-rate period before the first adjustment and the lifetime interest rate adjustment limitations. This risk is heightened by the Bank’s practice of offering its adjustable rate mortgages with a 1% limitation on annual interest rate adjustments. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that yields on the Bank’s adjustable rate loans will fully adjust to compensate for increases in the Bank’s cost of funds. Finally, adjustable rate loans increase the Bank’s exposure to decreases in prevailing market interest rates, although the 1% limitation on annual decreases in the loans’ interest rate tends to offset this effect. In times of declining interest rates, borrowers often refinance into fixed rate loan products, limiting the Bank’s ability to significantly increase its interest rate margin on adjustable rate loans in a declining interest rate market.

The Bank also originates, to a limited extent, fixed-rate loans for terms of 10 and 15 years. Such loans are secured by first mortgages on one-to-four family, owner-occupied residential real property located in the Bank’s market area. Because of the Bank’s policy to mitigate its exposure to interest rate risk through the use of adjustable rate rather than fixed rate products, the Bank does not emphasize fixed-rate mortgage loans. Fixed rate mortgage loans originated by the Bank are loans that often do not qualify for the secondary market due to numerous factors not related to credit quality. Typically, these products are not priced to be competitive with secondary market loans but to offer as an alternative if that option is not available. At December 31, 2006, 21.2% of the Bank’s residential loan portfolio consisted of fixed-rate mortgage loans. To further reduce its interest rate risk associated with such loans, the Bank may rely upon FHLB advances with similar maturities to fund such loans. See “— Deposit Activity and Other Sources of Funds — Borrowing.”

Neither the fixed rate nor the adjustable rate residential mortgage loans held in the Bank’s portfolio are originated in conformity with secondary market guidelines issued by FHLMC or FNMA. As a result, such loans may not be readily saleable in the secondary market to institutional purchasers. However, such loans may still be sold to private investors whose investment strategies do not depend upon loans that satisfy FHLMC or FNMA criteria. Further, given its high liquidity, the Bank does not currently view loan sales as a necessary funding source. The Bank’s percentage of residential loans to total loans has declined from 57.6% at December 31, 2004 to 45.2% at December 31, 2006. The most significant factor influencing the Bank’s portfolio mix is the flat yield curve, making adjustable rate mortgages less attractive to borrowers and less profitable for the Bank. In 2007, management anticipates that the residential mortgage portfolio will experience minimal or negative growth. The Bank does not engage in the practice of sub-prime lending and as such, the Bank’s credit risk in this area is minimal.

Construction Lending. The Bank engages in construction lending involving loans to individuals for construction of one-to-four family residential housing located within the Bank’s market area, with such loans converting to permanent financing upon completion of construction. Such loans are generally made to individuals for construction primarily in established subdivisions within the Bank’s market area. The Bank mitigates its risk with construction loans by imposing a maximum loan-to-value ratio of 95% for homes that will be owner-occupied and 80% for homes being built on a speculative basis. At December 31, 2006, the Bank’s loan portfolio included $39.4 million of loans secured by properties under construction, including construction/permanent loans structured to become permanent loans upon the completion of construction and interim construction loans structured to be repaid in full upon completion of construction and receipt of permanent financing.

The Bank also makes loans to qualified builders for the construction of one-to-four family residential housing located in established subdivisions in the Bank’s market area. Because such homes are intended for resale, such loans are generally not converted to permanent financing at the Bank. All construction loans are secured by a first lien on the property under construction.

Loan proceeds are disbursed in increments as construction progresses and as inspections warrant. Construction/permanent loans may have adjustable or fixed interest rates and are underwritten in accordance with the same terms and requirements as the Bank’s permanent mortgages. Such loans generally provide for disbursement in stages during a construction period of up to six months, during which period the borrower is required to make payments of interest only. The permanent loans are typically 30-year adjustable rate loans, with the same terms and conditions otherwise offered by the Bank. Monthly payments of principal and interest commence the month following the date the loan is converted to permanent financing. Borrowers must satisfy all credit requirements that would apply to the Bank’s permanent mortgage loan financing prior to receiving construction financing for the subject property.

Construction financing generally is considered to involve a higher degree of risk of loss than long-term financing on improved, occupied real estate. Risk of loss on a construction loan is dependent largely upon the accuracy of the initial estimate of the property’s value at completion of construction or development and the estimated cost (including interest) of construction. During the construction phase, a number of factors could result in delays and cost overruns. If the estimate of construction costs proves to be inaccurate, the Bank may be confronted at or prior to the maturity of the loan, with a project having a value which is insufficient to assure full repayment. The ability of a developer to sell developed lots or completed dwelling units will depend on, among other things, demand, pricing, availability of comparable properties and economic conditions. The Bank has sought to minimize this risk by limiting construction lending to qualified borrowers in the Bank’s market area, by requiring the involvement of qualified builders, and by limiting the aggregate amount of outstanding construction loans.

Multi-Family Residential and Non-Residential Real Estate Lending. The Bank’s multi-family residential loan portfolio consists of fixed and adjustable rate loans secured by real estate. At December 31, 2006, the Bank had $12.0 million of multi-family residential loans, which amounted to 2.4% of the Bank’s loan portfolio at such date. The Bank’s non-residential real estate portfolio generally consists of adjustable and fixed rate loans secured by first mortgages on commercial real estate, residential lots, and rental property. In each case, such property is located in the Bank’s market area. At December 31, 2006, the Bank had approximately $147.1 million of such loans, which comprised 29.4% of its loan portfolio. Multi-family residential real estate loans are underwritten with loan-to-value ratios up to 80% of the appraised value of the property. Non-residential real estate loans are underwritten with loan-to-value ratios up to 65% of the appraised value for raw land and 75% for land development loans.

Multi-family residential and non-residential real estate lending entails significant additional risks as compared with one-to-four family residential property lending. Multi-family residential and commercial real estate loans typically involve larger loan balances to single borrowers or groups of related borrowers. The payment experience on such loans typically is dependent on the successful operation of the real estate project, retail establishment or business. These risks can be significantly impacted by supply and demand conditions in the market for the office, retail and residential space, and, as such, may be subject to a greater extent to adverse conditions in the economy generally. To minimize these risks, the Bank generally limits itself to its market area or to borrowers with which it has prior experience or who are otherwise known to the Bank. It has been the Bank’s policy to obtain annual financial statements of the business of the borrower or the project for which multi-family residential real estate or commercial real estate loans are made. At December 31, 2006, there were no non-residential mortgage loans delinquent by 90 days or more.

Consumer Lending. The consumer loans currently in the Bank’s loan portfolio consist of loans secured by savings deposits and other consumer loans. Savings deposit loans are usually made for up to 90% of the depositor’s savings account balance. The interest rate is approximately 2.0% above the rate paid on such deposit account serving as collateral, and the account must be pledged as collateral to secure the loan. Interest generally is billed on a quarterly basis. At December 31, 2006, loans on deposit accounts totaled $ 3.9 million, or 0.8% of the Bank’s loan portfolio. Other consumer loans include automobile loans, the amount and terms of which are determined by the loan committee, and home equity and home improvement loans, which are made for up to 100% of the value of the property. At December 31, 2006, other consumer loans totaled $21.6 million, or 4.3% of the Bank’s loan portfolio.

Consumer loans may entail greater credit risk than do residential mortgage loans, particularly in the case of consumer loans that are unsecured or are secured by rapidly depreciable assets, such as automobiles. In such cases, any repossessed collateral for a defaulted consumer loan may not provide an adequate source of repayment of the outstanding loan balance as a result of the greater likelihood of damage, loss or depreciation. In addition, consumer loan collections are dependent on the borrower’s continuing financial stability, and therefore are more likely to be affected by adverse personal circumstances. Furthermore, the application of various federal and state laws, including bankruptcy and insolvency laws, may limit the amount which can be recovered on such loans. At December 31, 2006, there were $70,000 in consumer loans delinquent 90 days or more.

Commercial Lending. The Bank originates commercial loans on a secured and, to a lesser extent, unsecured basis. At December 31, 2006, the Bank’s commercial loans amounted to $ 50.0 million, or 15.1% of the Bank’s loan portfolio. The Bank’s commercial loans generally are secured by corporate assets. In addition, the Bank generally obtains guarantees from the principals of the borrower with respect to all commercial loans. At December 31, 2006, there were $102,000 in commercial loans delinquent 90 days or more.

Non-performing Loans and Other Problem Assets

The Bank’s non-performing loans totaled 0.17% of total loans at December 31, 2006. Loans are placed on a non-accrual status when the loan is past due in excess of 90 days or the collection of principal and interest is doubtful. The Bank places a high priority on contacting customers by telephone as a primary method of determining the status of delinquent loans and the action necessary to resolve any payment problem. The Bank’s management performs quality reviews of problem assets to determine the necessity of establishing additional loss reserves. The Bank’s total non-performing assets to total asset ratio was 0.16% at December 31, 2006.

Real estate acquired by the Bank as a result of foreclosure is classified as real estate owned until such time as it is sold. The Bank generally tries to sell the property at a price no less than its net book value; however, it will consider slight discounts to the appraised value to expedite the return of the funds to an earning status. When such property is acquired, it is recorded at its fair value less estimated costs of sale. Any required write-down of the loan to its appraised fair market value upon foreclosure is charged against the allowance for loan losses. Subsequent to foreclosure, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, a valuation allowance is established if the carrying value of the property exceeds its fair value net of related selling expenses. At December 31, 2006, the Bank’s other assets owned totaled $342,000. This amount represents management’s best estimate on the fair value of these assets.

The following table sets forth information with respect to the Bank’s non-performing loans at the dates indicated. No loans were recorded as restructured loans within the meaning of SFAS No. 15 at the dates indicated.

At December 31, 2006, the Bank had $863,000 in loans outstanding which were classified as non-accrual, 90 days past due or restructured but where known information about possible credit problems of borrowers caused management to have serious concerns as to the ability of the borrowers to comply with present loan repayment terms and may result in disclosure as non-accrual, 90 days past due or restructured. At December 31, 2006, the Bank had $342,000 in other assets owned. Also, the Bank had impaired loans, as defined by SFAS 114 and 118, totaling approximately $1.7 million at December 31, 2006.

Federal regulations require savings institutions to classify their assets on the basis of quality on a regular basis. An asset meeting one of the classification definitions set forth below may be classified and still be a performing loan. An asset is classified as substandard if it is determined to be inadequately protected by the current retained earnings and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. An asset is classified as doubtful if full collection is highly questionable or improbable. An asset is classified as loss if it is considered uncollectible, even if a partial recovery could be expected in the future. The regulations also provide for a special mention designation, described as assets which do not currently expose a savings institution to a sufficient degree of risk to warrant classification but do possess credit deficiencies or potential weaknesses deserving management’s close attention. Such assets designated as special mention may include non-performing loans consistent with the above definition. Assets classified as substandard or doubtful require a savings institution to establish general allowances for loan losses. If an asset or portion thereof is classified loss, a savings institution must either establish

 

11


a specific allowance for loss in the amount of the portion of the asset-classified loss, or charge off such amount. Federal examiners may disagree with a savings institution’s classifications. If a savings institution does not agree with an examiner’s classification of an asset, it may appeal this determination to the OTS Regional Director.

The Bank regularly reviews its assets to determine whether any assets require classification or re-classification. At December 31, 2006, the Bank had $954,000 in assets classified as substandard and $671,000 in assets classified as doubtful. In addition, OTS requires that the classification of all non-investment grade bonds. At December 31, 2006, the Company held $5.0 million in corporate notes that are no longer investment grade.

Allowance for Loan Losses. In originating loans, the Bank recognizes that credit losses will be experienced and that the risk of loss will vary with, among other things, the type of loan being made, the creditworthiness of the borrower over the term of the loan, general economic conditions and, in the case of a secured loan, the quality of the security for the loan. It is management’s policy to maintain an adequate allowance for loan losses based on, among other things, the Bank’s and the industry’s historical loan loss experience, evaluation of economic conditions, regular reviews of delinquencies and loan portfolio quality and evolving standards imposed by federal bank examiners and other regulatory agencies. The Bank increases its allowance for loan losses by charging provisions for loan losses against the Bank’s income.

Management will continue to actively monitor the Bank’s asset quality and allowance for loan losses. Management will charge off loans and properties acquired in settlement of loans against the allowances for loan losses on such loans and such properties when appropriate and will provide specific loss allowances when necessary. Although management believes it uses the best information available to make determinations with respect to the allowances for loan losses and believes such allowances are adequate, future adjustments may be necessary if economic conditions differ substantially from the economic conditions in the assumptions used in making the initial determinations.

The Bank’s methodology for establishing the allowance for loan losses takes into consideration probable losses that have been identified in connection with specific assets as well as losses that have not been identified but can be expected to occur. Management conducts regular reviews of the Bank’s assets and evaluates the need to establish allowances on the basis of this review. Allowances are established by the Board of Directors on a quarterly basis based on an assessment of risk in the Bank’s assets taking into consideration the composition and quality of the portfolio, delinquency trends, current charge-off and loss experience, loan concentrations, the state of the real estate market, regulatory reviews conducted in the regulatory examination process and economic conditions generally. Specific reserves will be provided for individual assets, or portions of assets, when ultimate collection is considered improbable by management based on the current payment status of the assets and the fair value of the security. At the date of foreclosure or other repossession, the Bank would transfer the property to real estate acquired in settlement of loans initially at the lower of cost or estimated fair value and subsequently at the lower of book value or fair value less estimated selling costs. Any portion of the outstanding loan balance in excess of fair value less estimated selling costs would be charged off against the allowance for loan losses. If, upon ultimate disposition of the property, net sales proceeds exceed the net carrying value of the property, a gain on sale of other real estate would be recorded.

Management believes that the allowance can be allocated by category only on an approximate basis. The allocation of the allowance to each category is not necessarily indicative of future losses and does not restrict the use of the allowance to absorb losses in any category.

Investment Activities

The Bank makes investments in order to maintain the levels of liquid assets required by regulatory authorities and manage cash flow, diversify its assets, obtain yield and to satisfy certain requirements for favorable tax treatment. The principal objective of the investment policy is to earn as high a rate of return as possible, but to consider also financial or credit risk, liquidity risk and interest rate risk. The investment activities of the Company and the Bank consist primarily of investments in U.S. Government agency securities, municipal and corporate bonds, CMO’s, and mortgage-backed securities. Typical investments include federally sponsored agency mortgage pass-through and federally sponsored agency and mortgage-related securities. Investment and aggregate investment limitations and credit quality parameters of each class of investment are prescribed in the Bank’s investment policy. The Company and the Bank perform analyses on mortgage-related securities prior to purchase and on an ongoing basis to determine the impact on earnings and market value under various interest rate and prepayment conditions. Securities purchases must be approved by the Bank’s President. The Board of Directors reviews all securities transactions on a monthly basis.

At December 31, 2006, securities, including FHLB stock, with an amortized cost of $ 190.1 million and an approximate market value of $ 187.0 million were classified as available for sale. Management presently does not intend to sell such securities and, based on the current liquidity level and the access to borrowings through the FHLB of Cincinnati, management currently does not anticipate that the Company or the Bank will be placed in a position of having to sell securities with material unrealized losses.

At December 31, 2006, agency securities with an amortized cost of $18.0 million and an approximate market value of $17.7 million were classified as held to maturity. Securities designated as held to maturity are those assets which the Company or the Bank has both the ability and the intent to hold to maturity. Upon acquisition, securities are classified as to the Company’s or the Bank’s intent and a sale would only be affected due to deteriorating investment quality. The held to maturity investment portfolio is not used for speculative purposes and is carried at amortized cost. In the event securities are sold from this portfolio for other than credit quality reasons, all securities within the investment portfolio with matching characteristics may be reclassified as assets available for sale. Securities designated as “available for sale” are those assets which the Company or the Bank may not hold to maturity and thus are carried at market value with unrealized gains or losses, net of tax effect, recognized in stockholders’ equity.

Mortgage-Backed and Related Securities. Mortgage-backed securities represent a participation interest in a pool of one-to-four family or multi-family mortgages, the principal and interest payments on which are passed from the mortgage originators through intermediaries that pool and repackage the participation interest in the form of securities to investors such as the Bank. CMO’s are a variation of mortgage-backed securities in which the mortgage pool is divided into specific classes, with different classes receiving different principal reduction streams based on numerous factors, including prepayments speeds. Such intermediaries may include quasi-governmental agencies such as FHLMC, FNMA and the Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”) which guarantees the payment of principal and interest to investors. Of the $ 36.3 million mortgage-backed security portfolio and $13.9 million CMO portfolio at December 31, 2006, approximately $ 2.2 million were originated through GNMA, approximately $ 29.6 million were originated through FNMA, approximately $ 16.9 million were originated through FHLMC, and approximately $1.5 million are Whole Loan CMO’s. Typically, the collateral in Whole Loan CMO’s include jumbo mortgages that exceeded the limits provided by federal agencies and do not have a federal government or agency guarantee. The issuers of Whole Loan CMO’s receive an AAA rating by credit rating agencies by providing an overabundance of collateral (125% to 150%) to secure these investments. In capital computations, Whole Loan CMO’s are risk rated 20%, the same of FNMA and FHLMC. GNMA investment products are zero risk rated, the same as U.S. Treasury notes. It is the Company’s opinion that it has no exposure to sub-prime loans in its investment portfolio.

Mortgage-backed securities typically are issued with stated principal amounts and the securities are backed by pools of mortgages that have loans with interest rates that are within a range and have similar maturities. The underlying pool of mortgages can be composed of either fixed-rate or adjustable-rate mortgage loans. Mortgage-backed securities generally are referred to as mortgage participation certificates or pass-through certificates. As a result, the interest rate risk characteristics of the underlying pool of mortgages, i.e., fixed-rate or adjustable-rate, as well as prepayment risk, are passed on to the certificate holder. The life of a mortgage-backed pass-through security is equal to the life of the underlying mortgages.

The actual maturity of a mortgage-backed security varies, depending on when the mortgagors prepay or repay the underlying mortgages. Prepayments of the underlying mortgages may shorten the life of the investment, thereby adversely affecting its yield to maturity and the related market value of the mortgage-backed security.

The yield is based upon the interest income and the amortization of the premium or accretion of the discount related to the mortgage-backed security. Premiums and discounts on mortgage-backed securities are amortized or accreted over the estimated term of the securities using a level yield method. The prepayment assumptions used to determine the amortization period for premiums and discounts can significantly affect the yield of the mortgage-backed security, and these assumptions are reviewed periodically to reflect the actual prepayment.

The actual prepayments of the underlying mortgages depend on many factors, including the type of mortgage, the coupon rate, the age of the mortgages, the geographical location of the underlying real estate collateralizing the mortgages and general levels of market interest rates. The difference between the interest rates on the underlying mortgages and the prevailing mortgage interest rates is an important determinant in the rate of prepayments. During periods of falling mortgage interest rates, prepayments generally increase, and, conversely, during periods of rising mortgage interest rates, prepayments generally decrease. If the coupon rate of the underlying mortgage significantly exceeds the prevailing market interest rates offered for mortgage loans, refinancing generally increases and accelerates the prepayment of the underlying mortgages. Prepayment experience is more difficult to estimate for adjustable-rate mortgage-backed securities.

The following table sets forth information on the scheduled maturities, amortized cost, market values and average yields for U.S. Government agency securities, corporate bonds and municipal securities in the investment portfolio at December 31, 2006. At such date, all of the agency securities were callable and/or due on or before December 31, 2007. At December 31, 2006, $20.3 million of the callable agency securities are structured notes, where the interest rate paid on the bond increases significantly on a given date, making it more likely that the bond will be called at that date. At December 31, 2006, $6.4 million of municipal securities were callable and/or due between March 2007 and December 2014. The average yield for municipal securities are quoted as taxable equivalent assuming a 4.0% cost of funds rate and a 34% federal income tax rate. All corporate bonds were non callable.

Deposit Activity and Other Sources of Funds

General. Deposits are the primary source of the Bank’s funds for lending, investment activities and general operational purposes. In addition to deposits, the Bank derives funds from loan principal and interest repayments, maturities of investment securities and mortgage-backed securities and interest payments thereon. Although loan repayments are a relatively stable source of funds, deposit inflows and outflows are significantly influenced by general interest rates and money market conditions. Borrowings may be used on a short-term basis to compensate for reductions in the availability of funds, or on a longer term basis for general corporate purposes. The Bank has access to borrow from the FHLB of Cincinnati, and the Bank will continue to have access to FHLB of Cincinnati advances. The Bank may rely upon retail deposits rather than borrowings as its primary source of funding for future asset growth.

Deposits. The Bank attracts deposits principally from within its market area by offering competitive rates on its deposit instruments, including money market accounts, passbook savings accounts, individual retirement accounts, and certificates of deposit which range in maturity from three months to five years. Deposit terms vary according to the minimum balance required and the length of time the funds must remain on deposit and the interest rate. Maturities, terms, service fees and withdrawal penalties for its deposit accounts are established by the Bank on a periodic basis. The Bank reviews its deposit mix and pricing on a weekly basis. In determining the characteristics of its deposit accounts, the Bank considers the rates offered by competing institutions, lending and liquidity requirements, growth goals and federal regulations. The Bank does not accept brokered deposits.

The Bank attempts to compete for deposits with other institutions in its market area by offering competitively priced deposit instruments that are tailored to the needs of its customers. Additionally, the Bank seeks to meet customers’ needs by providing convenient customer service to the community. Substantially all of the Bank’s depositors are Kentucky or Tennessee residents who reside in the Bank’s market area.

Savings deposits in the Bank at December 31, 2006 were represented by the various types of savings programs described below.

Certificates of deposit at December 31, 2006 included approximately $143.7 million of deposits with balances of $100,000 or more, compared to $76.6 million and $79.2 million at December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Such time deposits may be risky because their continued presence in the Bank is dependent partially upon the rates paid by the Bank rather than any customer relationship and, therefore, may be withdrawn upon maturity if another institution offers higher interest rates. The Bank may be required to resort to other funding sources such as borrowings or sales of its securities available for sale if the Bank believes that increasing its rates to maintain such deposits would adversely affect its operating results. At this time, the Bank does not believe that it will need to significantly increase its deposit rates to maintain such certificates of deposit and, therefore, does not anticipate resorting to alternative funding sources. See Note 6 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Borrowings. Savings deposits historically have been the primary source of funds for the Bank’s lending, investments and general operating activities. The Bank is authorized, however, to use advances from the FHLB of Cincinnati to supplement its supply of lendable funds and to meet deposit withdrawal requirements. The FHLB of Cincinnati functions as a central reserve bank providing credit for savings institutions and certain other member financial institutions.

As a member of the FHLB System, the Bank is required to own stock in the FHLB of Cincinnati and is authorized to apply for advances. Advances are pursuant to several different programs, each of which has its own interest rate and range of maturities. The Bank has entered into a Cash Management Advance program with FHLB. See Note 7 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Advances from the FHLB of Cincinnati were $113.6 million at December 31, 2006 and are secured by a blanket security agreement in which the Bank has pledged its 1-4 family first mortgage loans and non-residential real estate loans held in the Bank’s loan portfolio.

On September 25, 2003, the Company issued $10,310,000 in floating rate junior subordinated debentures with a thirty year maturity and callable at the Company’s discretion quarterly after September 25, 2008. The subordinated debentures are priced at a variable rate equal to the three month LIBOR (London Inter Bank Offering Rate) plus 3.10%. At December 31, 2006, the three-month Libor rate was 5.37%. The securities are immediately callable in the event of a change in tax or accounting law that has a significant negative impact to issuing these securities.

For regulatory purposes, subordinated debentures may be treated as Tier I capital. Federal regulations limit the use of subordinated debentures to 25% of total Tier I capital. Discussions among regulatory agencies are underway that may limit the current and future use of subordinated debentures as Tier I capital. The Company’s decision to issue subordinated debentures was in part influenced by potential regulatory actions in the future. The Company anticipates above average growth to continue and anticipates a time in the future when capital ratios are lower and additional capital may be need.

In October of 2004, the Bank entered into a interest rate swap agreement with Compass Bank of Birmingham, Alabama. The agreement calls for the Bank to pay a fixed rate of 3.53% until September 25, 2008 on $10 million and receive payment equal to the three month LIBOR. The Bank then completed an inter-company transaction that transferred the swap to the Company, providing an effective hedge for its variable rate subordinated debentures. In January 2006, the Bank settled the swap agreement and received $270,000 in proceeds from the settlement. These proceeds will be recognized as a reduction in interest expense of $24,560 each quarter through the end of September 2008.

Subsidiary Activities

As a federally chartered savings bank, the Bank is permitted to invest an amount equal to 2% of its assets in subsidiaries, with an additional investment of 1% of assets where such investment serves primarily community, inner-city and community development purposes. The Bank’s lone subsidiary is Fall and Fall Insurance Agency (“Fall and Fall”) of Fulton, Kentucky. Fall and Fall was acquired in the Fulton acquisition on September 5, 2002. The Bank’s equity in the agency is approximately $578,000.

Competition

The Bank faces significant competition both in originating mortgage and other loans and in attracting deposits. The Bank competes for loans principally on the basis of interest rates, the types of loans it originates, the deposit products it offers and the quality of services it provides to borrowers. The Bank also competes by offering products which are tailored to the local community. Its competition in originating real estate loans comes primarily from other savings institutions, commercial banks and mortgage bankers making loans secured by real estate located in the Bank’s market area. Commercial banks, credit unions and finance companies provide vigorous competition in consumer lending. Competition may increase as a result of the continuing reduction of restrictions on the interstate operations of financial institutions.

At June 30, 2006, the Bank had a 19.08% share of the deposit market in its combined markets. The Bank’s most significant competition across its entire market area was Branch Bank & Trust of North Carolina with a 18.2% deposit market share, Bank of Benton of Kentucky with an 9.6% deposit market share and Regions Bank of Alabama with an 8.1% deposit market share. In addition, each market contains other community banks that provide competitive products and services within individual markets.

The Bank attracts its deposits through its nine offices primarily from the local community. Consequently, competition for deposits is principally from other savings institutions, commercial banks and brokers in the local community as well as from credit unions. The Bank competes for deposits and loans by offering what it believes to be a variety of deposit accounts at competitive rates, convenient business hours, a commitment to outstanding customer service and a well-trained staff. The Bank believes it has developed strong relationships with local realtors and the community in general.

The Bank is a community and retail-oriented financial institution. Management considers the Bank’s branch network and reputation for financial strength and quality customer service as its major competitive advantage in attracting and retaining customers in its market area. A number of the Bank’s competitors have been acquired by statewide/nationwide banking organizations. While the Bank is subject to competition from other financial institutions which may have greater financial and marketing resources, management believes the Bank benefits by its community orientation and its long-standing relationship with many of its customers.

Employees

As of December 31, 2006, the Company and the Bank had 202 full-time and 15 part-time employees, none of whom were represented by a collective bargaining agreement. Management considers the Bank’s relationships with its employees to be good.

Sarbanes–Oxley Act of 2002

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 provided for sweeping changes with respect to corporate governance, accounting policies and disclosure requirements for public companies, and also for their directors and officers. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act required the SEC to adopt new rules to implement the Act’s requirements. These requirements include new financial reporting requirements and rules concerning the chief executive and chief financial officers to certify certain financial and other information included in a company’s quarterly and annual reports. The rules also require these officers to certify that they are responsible for establishing, maintaining and regularly evaluating the effectiveness of the company’s disclosure controls and procedures; and that they have included information in their quarterly and annual filings about their evaluation and whether there have been significant changes to the controls and procedures or other factors which would significantly impact these controls subsequent to their evaluation. The certifications by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the financial statements and other information included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K have been filed as exhibits to this Form 10-K. See Item 9A (“Controls and Procedures”) hereof for the Company’s evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.

Pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the Company will be required under rules adopted by the SEC to include in its annual reports a report by management on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and an accompanying auditor’s report. In September 2005, the SEC extended the Section 404 compliance date for the Company and other non-accelerated filers. Under the extension, the Company must begin to comply with these requirements for its fiscal year ending December 31, 2007.

USA Patriot Act

The USA Patriot Act authorizes new regulatory powers to combat international terrorism. The provisions that affect financial institutions most directly provide the federal government with enhanced authority to identify, deter, and punish international money laundering and other crimes. Among other things, the USA Patriot Act prohibits financial institutions from doing business with foreign “shell” banks and requires increased due diligence for private banking transactions and correspondent accounts for foreign banks. In addition, financial institutions have to follow minimum verification of identity standards for all new accounts and are permitted to share information with law enforcement authorities under circumstances that were not previously permitted.

Deposit Insurance. The Deposit Insurance Fund is the successor to the Bank Insurance Fund and the Savings Association Insurance Fund, which were merged in 2006 by the Federal Deposit Insurance Reform Act of 2005 (the “Reform Act”). In addition to merging the insurance funds, the Reform Act made the following major changes to the federal deposit insurance system: (i) the current $100,000 deposit insurance coverage will be indexed for inflation (with adjustments every five years, commencing January 1, 2011); (ii) deposit insurance coverage for retirement accounts was increased to $250,000 per participant subject to adjustment for inflation; and (iii) the FDIC was given the authority to adjust the Deposit Insurance Fund’s reserve ratio annually at between of 1.15% and 1.5% of insured deposits, in contrast to the prior statutory ratio of 1.25%. The FDIC has set the Deposit Insurance Fund’s reserve ratio for 2007 at 1.25%.

 

20


The FDIC maintains a risk-based deposit insurance assessment system, under which the amount of each bank’s insurance assessment is based on the balance of insured deposits and the degree of risk the institution poses to the Deposit Insurance Fund. Under the revised assessment system adopted by the FDIC following enactment of the Reform Act, insured institutions are assigned to one of four risk categories based on supervisory evaluations, capital levels and certain other factors. Deposit insurance assessment rates, which are set semiannually by the FDIC, currently range from 0.05% to 0.07% of insured deposits for Risk Category I institutions (i.e., well-capitalized and with one of the two highest safety and soundness examination ratings) to 0.43% for Risk Category IV institutions (i.e., undercapitalized and with substantial supervisory concerns).

The Reform Act also provides for a one-time credit for eligible institutions based on their level of insured deposits as of December 31, 1996. Subject to certain limitations applicable to institutions that are exhibiting weakness, such credit can be used to offset insurance assessments until exhausted. The Bank’s one-time credit is expected to approximate $40,000.

In addition, all insured institutions are required to pay assessments to the FDIC to fund interest payments on bonds issued by the Financing Corporation, an agency of the federal government established to recapitalize the predecessor to the Savings Association Insurance Fund. This payment is established quarterly, and during the calendar year ending December 31, 2006, averaged 1.28 basis points of assessable deposits.

Regulation

General. The Bank is chartered as a federal savings bank under the Home Owners’ Loan Act, as amended (the “HOLA”), which is implemented by regulations adopted and administered by the OTS. As a federal savings bank, the Bank is subject to regulation, supervision and regular examination by the OTS. The OTS also has extensive enforcement authority over all savings institutions and their holding companies, including the Bank and the Company. Federal banking laws and regulations control, among other things, the Bank’s required reserves, investments, loans, mergers and consolidations, payment of dividends and other aspects of the Bank’s operations. The deposits of the Bank are insured by the BIF administered by the FDIC to the maximum extent provided by law. In addition, the FDIC has certain regulatory and examination authority over OTS-regulated savings institutions and may recommend enforcement actions against savings institutions to the OTS. The supervision and regulation of the Bank is intended primarily for the protection of the deposit insurance fund and the Bank’s depositors rather than for holders of the Company’s stock or for the Company as the holder of the stock of the Bank. As a savings and loan holding company, the Company is registered with the OTS and subject to OTS regulation and supervision under the HOLA. The Company also is required to file certain reports with, and otherwise comply with the rules and regulations of, the Commission under the federal securities laws.

The following discussion is intended to be a summary of certain statutes, rules and regulations affecting the Bank and the Company. A number of other statutes and regulations have an impact on their operations. The following summary of applicable statutes and regulations does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such statutes and regulations.

Regulatory Capital. The OTS’ capital adequacy regulations require savings institutions such as the Bank to meet three minimum capital standards: a “core” capital requirement of 4% of adjusted total assets (or 3% if the institution is rated Composite 1 under the CAMELS examination rating system), a “tangible” capital requirement of 1.5% of adjusted total assets, and a “risk-based” capital requirement of 8% of total risk-based capital to total risk-weighted assets. In addition, the OTS has adopted regulations imposing certain restrictions on savings institutions that have a total risk-based capital ratio of less than 8%, a ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of less than 4% or a ratio of Tier 1 capital to total assets of less than 4%. See Note 14 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Prompt Corrective Regulatory Action. Under the OTS prompt corrective action regulations, the federal banking regulators are required to take prompt corrective action in respect of depository institutions that do not meet certain minimum capital requirements, including a leverage limit and a risk-based capital requirement. All institutions, regardless of their capital levels, are restricted from making any capital distribution or paying any management fees that would cause the institution to become undercapitalized. The federal banking regulators, including the OTS, have issued regulations that classify insured depository institutions by capital levels and provide that the applicable agency will take various prompt corrective actions to resolve the problems of any institution that fails to satisfy the capital standards.

 

21


Under the joint prompt corrective action regulations, a “well-capitalized” institution is one that is not subject to any regulatory order or directive to meet any specific capital level and that has or exceeds the following capital levels: a total risk-based capital ratio of 10%, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 6%, and a ratio of Tier 1 capital to total assets (“leverage ratio”) of 5%. An “adequately capitalized” institution is one that does not qualify as “well capitalized” but meets or exceeds the following capital requirements: a total risk-based capital of 8%, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 4%, and a leverage ratio of either (i) 4% or (ii) 3% if the institution has the highest composite examination rating. An institution not meeting these criteria is treated as “undercapitalized,” “significantly undercapitalized,” or “critically undercapitalized” depending on the extent to which its capital levels are below these standards. An institution that fails within any of the three “undercapitalized” categories will be subject to certain severe regulatory sanctions required by OTS regulations. As of December 31, 2006, the Bank was “well-capitalized” as defined by the regulations.

Qualified Thrift Lender Test. The HOLA and OTS regulations require all savings institutions to satisfy one of two Qualified Thrift Lender (“QTL”) tests or to suffer a number of sanctions, including restrictions on activities. A savings institution must maintain its status as a QTL on a monthly basis in at least nine out of every 12 months. An initial failure to qualify as a QTL results in a number of sanctions, including the imposition of certain operating restrictions and a restriction on obtaining additional advances from its Federal Home Loan Bank. If a savings institution does not re-qualify under the QTL test within the three-year period after it fails the QTL test, it would be required to terminate any activity not permissible for a national bank and repay as promptly as possible any outstanding advances from its Federal Home Loan Bank. In addition, the holding company of such an institution, such as the Company, would similarly be required to register as a bank holding company with the Federal Reserve Board. The Bank qualified as a QTL institution at December 31, 2006.

Limitations on Capital Distributions. OTS regulations impose limitations upon capital distributions by savings institutions, such as cash dividends, payments to repurchase or otherwise acquire its shares, payments to stockholders of another institution in a cash-out merger and other distributions charged against capital. Under the OTS capital distribution regulations, a savings institution that (i) qualifies for expedited treatment of applications by maintaining one of the two highest supervisory examination ratings, (ii) will be at least adequately capitalized after the proposed capital distribution and (iii) and is not otherwise restricted by applicable law in making capital distributions may, without prior approval by the OTS, make capital distributions during a calendar year equal to its net income for such year plus its retained net income for the preceding two years. Capital distributions in excess of such amount would require prior OTS approval.

Under OTS regulations, the Bank would not be permitted to pay dividends on its capital stock if its regulatory capital would thereby be reduced below the amount then required for the liquidation account established for the benefit of certain depositors of the Bank at the time of the Conversion. In addition, under the prompt corrective action regulations of the OTS, the Bank would be prohibited from paying dividends if the Bank were classified as “undercapitalized” under such rules. See “— Prompt Corrective Regulatory Action.”

Future earnings of the Bank appropriated to bad debt reserves and deducted for federal income tax purposes are not available for payment of dividends or other distributions to the Company without payment of taxes at the then current tax rate by the Bank on the amount of earnings removed from the reserves for such distributions.

Transactions with Affiliates and Insiders. Generally, transactions between a savings bank or its subsidiaries and its affiliates are required to be on terms as favorable to the savings bank as transactions with non-affiliates. In addition, certain of these transactions, such as loans to an affiliate, are restricted to a percentage of the savings bank’s capital. Affiliates of the Bank include the Company and any company that is under common control with the Bank. In addition, a savings bank may not lend to any affiliate engaged in activities not permissible for a bank holding company or acquire the securities of most affiliates. The OTS has the discretion to treat subsidiaries of savings banks as affiliates on a case-by-case basis.

Certain transactions with directors, officers or controlling persons are also subject to conflict of interest regulations enforced by the OTS. These conflict of interest regulations and other statutes also impose restrictions on loans to such persons and their related interests. Among other things, such loans must generally be made on terms that are substantially the same as for loans to unaffiliated individuals.

 

22


Reserve Requirements. Pursuant to regulations of the Federal Reserve Board (the “FRB”), all FDIC-insured depository institutions must maintain average daily reserves at specified levels against their transaction accounts. The Bank met these reserve requirements at December 31, 2006.

Federal Home Loan Bank System. The Federal Home Loan Bank System consists of 12 district Federal Home Loan Banks subject to supervision and regulation by the Federal Housing Finance Board (“FHFB”). The Federal Home Loan Banks provide a central credit facility primarily for member institutions. As a member of the FHLB, the Bank is required to acquire and hold shares of capital stock in the FHLB in an amount at least equal to 1% of the aggregate unpaid principal of its home mortgage loans, home purchase contracts, and similar obligations at the beginning of each year, or 1/20 of its advances (borrowings) from the FHLB, whichever is greater. The Bank was in compliance with this requirement, with an $3.6 million investment in FHLB stock at December 31, 2006.

Regulation of the Company

The Company is a unitary savings and loan holding company subject to OTS regulation, supervision and examination. In addition, the OTS has enforcement authority over the Company and its non-savings institution subsidiaries and may restrict or prohibit activities that are determined to represent a serious risk to the safety, soundness or stability of the Bank or any other subsidiary savings institution.

Under the HOLA, a savings and loan holding company is required to obtain the prior approval of the OTS before acquiring another savings institution or savings and loan holding company. A savings and loan holding company may not (i) acquire, with certain exceptions, more than 5% of a non-subsidiary savings institution or a non-subsidiary savings and loan holding company; or (ii) acquire or retain control of a depository institution that is not insured by the FDIC. In addition, while the Bank generally may acquire a savings institution by merger in any state without restriction by state law, the Company could acquire control of an additional savings institution in a state other than Kentucky only if such acquisition is permitted under the laws of the target institution’s home state or in a supervisory acquisition of a failing institution.

As a unitary savings and loan holding company, the Company generally is not subject to activity restrictions. If the Company were to acquire control of another savings institution as a separate subsidiary, it would become a multiple savings and loan holding company, and the activities of the Company and any of its subsidiaries (other than the Bank or any other SAIF-insured savings institution) would become subject to such restrictions unless such other institutions each qualify as a QTL and were acquired in a supervisory acquisition.

If the Bank fails the QTL test, the Company must obtain the approval of the OTS prior to continuing after such failure, directly or through its other subsidiaries, any business activity other than those approved for multiple savings and loan holding companies or their subsidiaries. In addition, within one year of such failure the Company would be required to register as, and would become subject to, the restrictions applicable to the bank holding companies. The activities authorized for a bank holding company are more limited than are the activities authorized for a unitary or multiple savings and loan holding company.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Annual Report on Form 10-K, including all documents incorporated herein by reference, contains forward-looking statements. Additional written or oral forward-looking statements may be made by the Company from time to time in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission or otherwise. The words “believe,” “expect,” “seek,” and “intend” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date the statement is made. Such forward-looking statements are within the meaning of that term in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such statements may include, but are not limited to, projections of income or loss, expenditures, acquisitions, plans for future operations, financing needs or plans relating to services of the Company, as well as assumptions relating to the foregoing. Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified. Future events and actual results could differ materially from those set forth in, contemplated by or underlying the forward-looking statements. The Company does not undertake, and specifically disclaims, any obligation to publicly release the results of revisions which may be made to forward-looking statements to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances after the date of such statements.

 

Item 1A. RISK FACTORS

The Company could experience an increase in loan losses, which would reduce the Company’s earnings.

As a lender, we are exposed to the risk that our customers will be unable to repay their loans according to their terms and that any collateral securing the payment of their loans may not be sufficient to assure repayment. A downturn in the economy or the real estate market in our market areas or a rapid change in interest rates could have a negative effect on the collateral values and borrower’s ability to repay. Credit losses are inherent in the business of making loans and could have a material adverse effect on our operating results. To the extent charge offs exceed our financial models, increased amounts charged to the provision for loan losses would reduce net income.

Rapidly changing interest rate environments could reduce our net interest margin, net interest income, fee income and net income.

Interest and fees on loans and securities, net of interest paid on deposits and borrowings, are a large part of our net income. Interest rates are the key drivers of the Company’s net interest margin and subject to many factors beyond the control of management. As interest rates change, net interest income is affected. Rapid increases in interest rates in the future could result in interest expense increasing faster than interest income because of mismatches in the maturities of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Furthermore, substantially higher rates generally reduce loan demand and may result in slower loan growth. Decreases or increases in interest rates could have a negative effect on the spreads between interest rates earned on assets and the rates of interest paid on liabilities, and therefore decrease net interest income. See “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk”

Liquidity needs could adversely affect the Company’s results of operations and financial condition.

The Company relies on dividends from the Bank as a primary source of funds. The primary source of funds of the Bank are customer deposits and cash flows from investment instruments and loan repayments. While scheduled loan repayments are a relatively stable source, they are subject to the ability of the borrowers to repay their loans. The ability of the borrowers to repay their loans can be adversely affected by a number of factors, including changes in the economic conditions, adverse trends or events affecting the business environment, natural disasters and various other factors. Cash flows from the investment portfolio may be affected by changes in interest rates, resulting in excessive levels of cash flow during periods of declining interest rates and lower levels of cash flow during periods of rising interest rates. Deposit levels may be affected by a number of factors, including both the national market and local competitive interest rate environment, local and national economic conditions, natural disasters and other various events. Accordingly, the Company may be required from time to time to rely on secondary sources of liquidity to meet withdrawal demands or otherwise fund operations. Such sources include the FHLB advances and federal funds lines of credit from correspondent banks. The Company may also pledge investments as collateral to borrow money from third parties. In certain cases, the Company may sell investment instruments for sizable losses to meet liquidity needs, hurting net income. While the Company believes that these sources are currently adequate, there can be no assurance they will be sufficient to meet future liquidity needs.

 

24


The financial industry is very competitive.

We face competition in attracting and retaining deposits, making loans, and providing other financial services throughout our market area. Our competitors include other community banks, regional and super-regional banking institutions, national banking institutions, and a wide range of other financial institutions such as credit unions, government-sponsored enterprises, mutual fund companies, insurance companies, brokerage companies, and other non-bank businesses. Many of these competitors have substantially greater resources than HopFed Bancorp, Inc.

Inability to hire or retain certain key professionals, management and staff could adversely affect our revenues and net income.

We rely on key personnel to manage and operate our business, including major revenue generating functions such as our loan and deposit portfolios. The loss of key staff may adversely affect our ability to maintain and manage these portfolios effectively, which could negatively affect our revenues. In addition, loss of key personnel could result in increased recruiting, hiring, and training expenses, resulting in lower net income.

The Company is subject to extensive regulation that could limit or restrict its activities.

The Company operates in a highly regulated industry and is subject to examination, supervision, and comprehensive regulation by various federal agencies, including the Office of Thrift Supervision and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Company’s regulatory compliance is costly and certain types of activities, including the payment of dividends, mergers and acquisitions, investments, loans and interest rates charged and interest rates paid on deposits and locations of offices are subject to regulatory approval and may be limited by regulation. The Company is also subject to capitalization guidelines established by its regulators, which require it and the Bank to maintain adequate capital to support its and the Bank’s growth.

The laws and regulations applicable to the banking industry could change at any time, and the Company cannot predict the effects of these changes on its business and profitability. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and the related rules and regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission and NASDAQ National Market that are now and will be applicable to the Company, have increased the scope, complexity, and cost of corporate governance, reporting and disclosure practices. As a result, the Company has experienced, and may continue to experience, greater compliance cost.

Even though the Company’s common stock is currently traded on The NASDAQ National Market, the trading volume in the Company’s common stock has been low and the sale of substantial amounts of its common stock in the public market could depress the price of the Company’s common stock.

The trading volume of the Company’s common stock on The NASDAQ National Market has been relatively low when compared with larger companies listed on The NASDAQ National Market or other stock exchanges. Thinly traded stocks, such as the Company’s, can be more volatile than stocks trading in an active public market. Because of this, the Company stockholders may not be able to sell their shares at the volumes, prices, or times that they desire.

The Company cannot predict the effect, if any, that future sales of its common stock in the market, or availability of shares of its common stock for sale in the market, will have on the market prices of the Company’s common stock. The Company, therefore, can give no assurance that sales of substantial amounts of its common stock in the market, or the potential for large amounts of sale in the market, would not cause the price of its common stock to decline or impair the Company’s ability to raise capital through sales of its common stock.

The market price of the Company’s common stock may fluctuate in the future, and these fluctuations may be unrelated to its performance. General market prices declines or overall market volatility in the future could adversely affect the price of the Company’s common stock, and the current market price may not be indicative of future market prices.

 

25


The Company may face risks with respect to current and future acquisition and expansions.

The Company has engaged, and may continue to engage in de novo branch expansion as well as the acquisition of other financial institutions or parts of those institutions. The Company may also consider and enter into new lines of business or offer new products or services. In addition, the Company may receive future inquiries and have discussions with potential acquirers of the Company. Acquisitions and mergers involve a number of risks, including:

 

 

Time and costs associated with identifying and evaluating potential acquisitions and merger partners;

 

 

Inaccuracies in the estimates and judgments used to evaluate credit, operations, and management and market risks with respect to the target institution;

 

 

Time and costs of evaluating new markets, hiring experienced local management and opening new offices, and the time lags between these activities and the generation of sufficient assets and deposits to support the costs of the expansion;

 

 

The Company’s ability to finance an acquisition and possible dilution to its existing shareholders as well as the Company’s ability to maintain adequate liquidity levels during periods of uneven growth;

 

 

The diversion of the Company’s management’s attention to the negotiation of a transaction, and the integration of the operations and personnel of the combining businesses;

 

 

The entry into new markets where the Company lacks experience;

 

 

The introduction of new products and services into the Company’s business;

 

 

The incurrence and possible impairment of goodwill associated with an acquisition and possible adverse short-term effects on the Company’s results of operations; and

 

 

The risk of loss of key employees and customers.

The Company may incur substantial costs to expand. There can be no assurance that integration efforts for any future mergers or acquisitions will be successful. Also, the Company may issue equity securities, including common stock and securities convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock in connection with future acquisitions, which could cause ownership and economic dilution to the Company’s shareholders. There is no assurance that, following any future mergers or acquisitions, the Company’s integration efforts will be successful or the Company, after giving effect to the acquisition, will achieve profits comparable to or better than its historical experience.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 


 

General

This discussion relates to the financial condition and results of operations of the Company, which became the holding company for the Bank in February 1998. The principal business of the Bank consists of accepting deposits from the general public and investing these funds primarily in loans and in investment securities and mortgage-backed securities. The Bank’s loan portfolio consists primarily of loans secured by residential real estate located in its market area.

For the year ended December 31, 2006, the Company recorded net income of $3.9 million, a return on average assets of 0.56% and a return on average equity of 7.65%. For the year ended December 31, 2005, the Company recorded net income of $4.1 million, a return on average assets of 0.69% and a return on average equity of 8.33%. For the year ended December 31, 2004 the Company recorded net income of $4.0 million, a return on average assets of 0.71% and a return on average equity of 8.32%.

The Company’s net income is dependent primarily on its net interest income, which is the difference between interest income earned on its loan, investment securities and mortgage-backed securities portfolios and interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income is determined by (i) the difference between yields earned on interest-earning assets and rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities (“interest rate spread”) and (ii) the relative amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The Company’s interest rate spread is affected by regulatory, economic and competitive factors that influence interest rates, loan demand and deposit flows. To a lesser extent, the level of non-interest expenses such as compensation, employee benefits, data processing expenses, local deposit and federal income taxes also affect the Company’s net income.

The operations of the Company and the entire thrift industry are significantly affected by prevailing economic conditions, competition and the monetary, fiscal and regulatory policies of governmental agencies. Lending activities are influenced by the demand for and supply of housing, competition among lenders, the level of interest rates and the availability of funds. Deposit flows and costs of funds are influenced by prevailing market rates of interest, primarily on competing investments, account maturities and the levels of personal income and savings in the Company’s market area.

FHLB borrowings represent the amounts that are due to FHLB of Cincinnati. All amounts have fixed maturity dates with the exception of $18 million in convertible securities that are currently callable on a quarterly basis and are priced at a rate equal to the Three Month Libor. In December 2006, Management informed the Federal Home Loan Bank of its intent to call this advance on January 24, 2007, the next available call date. At December 31, 2006, the Company borrowed $5.8 million against its overnight line of credit at a rate of 5.34%. These borrowings were paid in full on January 3, 2007.

Subordinated debentures represent the amount borrowed in a private pool trust preferred issuance on September 25, 2003. The debentures are priced quarterly at the three-month LIBOR plus 3.10%, currently 8.47%. The debentures re-price and pay interest quarterly and have a thirty-year final maturity. The debentures may be called at the issuer’s discretion on a quarterly basis beginning September 25, 2008.

Lease commitments represent the total minimum lease payments under non-cancelable operating leases.

The Company has the following purchase commitments outstanding.

In December of 2006, the Company signed a contract to renovate a recently purchased retail banking facility in Clarksville, Tennessee at an estimated remaining cost of approximately $473,000. The entire cost of the project will be incurred during 2007. The Company has an estimated $60,000 in expenses to complete a new retail office in Murray, Kentucky. This expense will be incurred in 2007.

In December 2005, the Company entered into an agreement with a contractor to construct two retail offices in Clarksville, Tennessee. At December 31, 2006, the estimated cost to complete the both retail bank locations was approximately $905,000. The Company anticipates that the remaining construction cost will be incurred in 2007.

The most significant operating contract is for the Company’s data processing services, which re-prices monthly based on the number of accounts and other operational factors. Estimates have been made to include reasonable growth projections. In December 2005, the Company renewed the operating contract with the current data processing provider for a period not to exceed five years. The Company anticipates only a minor increase in fixed and variable cost rates with this contract.

Standby letters of credit represent commitments by the Company to repay a third party beneficiary when a customer fails to repay a loan or debt instrument. The terms and risk of loss involved in issuing standby letters of credit are similar to those involved in issuing loan commitments and extending credit. In addition to credit risk, the Company also has liquidity risk associated with stand by letters of credit because funding for these obligations could be required immediately. Unused lines of credit represent commercial and residential equity lines of credit with maturities ranging from one to fifteen years.

Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

In October of 2004, Heritage Bank entered into a receive fixed pay variable swap transaction in the amount of $10 million with Compass Bank of Birmingham in which Heritage Bank will pay Compass a fixed rate of 3.53% quarterly for four years while Compass will pay Heritage Bank a rate equal to the three month London Interbank Offering Rate (“Libor”). Heritage Bank has signed an inter-company transfer with the Company that allows the Company to convert its variable rate subordinated debenture issuance to a fixed rate. The critical terms of the interest rate swap match the term of the corresponding variable rate subordinated debt issuance. In January of 2006, Heritage Bank closed the swap transaction at a net gain of approximately $270,000. Heritage Bank will recognize this gain over the original maturity of the swap, September 2008. As a result of the amortization of the gain on the swap, the Company recognized a decrease in interest expense on borrowed funds of $98,240 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006. The Company will continue to amortize this gain in the amount of $24,560 each quarter through September 30, 2008.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

Quantitative Aspects of Market Risk. The principal market risk affecting the Company is risk associated with interest rate volatility (interest rate risk). The Company does not maintain a trading account for any class of financial instrument nor does it engage in hedging activities or purchase high-risk derivative instruments. The Company is not subject to foreign currency exchange rate risk or commodity price risk. Substantially all of the Company’s interest rate risk is derived from the Bank’s lending and deposit taking activities. This risk could result in reduced net income, loss in fair values of assets and/or increases in fair values of liabilities due to upward changes in interest rates.

Qualitative Aspects of Market Risk The Company’s principal financial objective is to achieve long-term profitability while reducing its exposure to fluctuating market interest rates. The Company has sought to reduce the exposure of its earnings to changes in market interest rates by attempting to manage the mismatch between assets and liabilities maturities and interest rates. The principal element in achieving this objective is to increase the interest-rate sensitivity of the Company’s interest-earning assets by retaining for its portfolio loans with interest rates subject to periodic adjustment to market conditions. The Company relies on retail deposits as its primary source of funds. Management believes retail deposits, compared to brokered deposits, reduce the effects of its interest rate fluctuations because they generally represent a more stable source of funds. As part of its interest rate risk management strategy, the Bank promotes demand accounts and certificates of deposit with primarily terms of up to five years.

Asset / Liability Management

Key components of a successful asset/liability strategy are the monitoring and managing of interest rate sensitivity of both the interest-earning asset and interest-bearing liability portfolios. The Company has employed various strategies intended to minimize the adverse affect of interest rate risk on future operations by providing a better match between the interest rate sensitivity between its assets and liabilities. In particular, the Company’s strategies are intended to stabilize net interest income for the long-term by protecting its interest rate spread against increases in interest rates. Such strategies include the origination of adjustable-rate mortgage loans secured by one-to-four family residential real estate, and, to a lesser extent, multi-family real estate loans and the origination of other loans with interest rates that are more sensitive to adjustment based upon market conditions than long-term, fixed-rate residential mortgage loans. For the year ended December 31, 2006, approximately $178.1 million of the $225.9 million of one-to-four family residential loans originated by the Company (comprising 78.8% of such loans) had adjustable rates or will mature within one year.

The U.S. government agency securities generally are purchased for a term of fifteen years or less. Securities may or may not have call options. A security with call options improves the yield on the security but also has little or no positive price convexity. Non-callable securities or securities with one time calls offer a lower yield but more positive price convexity and an improved predictability of cash flow. Generally, securities with the greater call options (continuous and quarterly) are purchased only during times of extremely low interest rates.


Table of Contents

The reasons for purchasing these securities generally focus on the fact that a non callable or one time call is of little value if rates are exceptionally low. Due to their lack of positive price convexity, these securities are more likely classified as held to maturity.

At December 31, 2006, $35.8 million in securities were due within one year, approximately $40.8 million were due in one to five years, approximately $41.8 million were due in five to ten years and approximately $13.1 million were due after ten years. However, at December 31, 2006, $67.6 million of these securities had a call provision, which authorizes the issuing agency to prepay the securities at face value at certain pre-established dates. If, prior to their maturity dates, market interest rates decline below the rates paid on the securities, the issuing agency may elect to exercise its right to prepay the securities. At December 31, 2006, all of these securities are callable and/or due prior to December 31, 2007. The weighted average life of the agency bond portfolio is approximately 3.0 years and the modified duration of the agency bond portfolio is approximately 2.5 years.

The municipal bond portfolio largely consists of local school district bonds with the guarantee of the state of Kentucky or out of state bonds insured by private companies. At December 31, 2006 the Company has $14.6 million in municipal bonds. These bonds were purchased to provide long-term income stability and higher tax equivalent yields to a small portion of the investment portfolio. At December 31, 2006, approximately $6.6 million of the Company’s municipal bond portfolio is callable with call dates ranging from September 2007 to December 2014. The call dates are staggered to eliminate the excessive cash flows within any one-year period. At December 31, 2006, 4.8 million were due within one to five years, $5.8 million were due in five to ten years and approximately $4.0 million were due after ten years. At December 31, 2006, approximately $700,000 of municipal bonds had a call date of less than one year, approximately $3.1 million had a call date of between one and five years and approximately $2.8 million in more than five years. At December 31, 2006, the average life of the municipal bond portfolio is approximately 5.5 years and the modified duration of the municipal bond portfolio is approximately 4.7 years.

At December 31, 2006, the Company held $5.0 million in corporate bonds. At December 31, 2006, the corporate bond portfolio had a weighted average life of 1.2 years and a net unrealized loss of $105,000, compared to a net unrealized loss of $592,000 at December 31, 2005. All corporate bonds purchased by the Company were investment grade when purchased. The corporate bond portfolio consist of $2 million par value General Motors Acceptance Corporation (GMAC) bonds due in August 2007 and $3 million par value in Ford Motor Acceptance Corporation (FMAC) bonds maturing in $1 million increments in January 2007, October 2008, and October 2009. During 2005, the national credit rating agencies downgraded the parent companies of both GMAC and FMAC (General Motors and Ford) so that their bonds are no longer investment grade. The downgrades are the result of the long-term business prospects and current and future health and pension liabilities of General Motors and Ford. In late 2006, General Motors completed the sale of 51% of GMAC to a group of outside investors. The Company conducts a financial analysis similar to that of a loan customer for each corporate purchase. This analysis includes reviewing quarterly and periodic SEC filings for both the parent companies and subsidiaries. The Company has determined that both General Motors and Ford maintain acceptable levels and sources of liquidity to meet short-term obligations. The Company’s analysis indicates that both General Motors and Ford have adequate levels and sources of liquidity to meet current and near-term obligations, including the funding of bond interest and principal payments.

Mortgage-backed securities entitle the Company to receive a pro rata portion of the cash flow from an identified pool of mortgages. Although mortgage-backed securities generally offer lesser yields than the loans for which they are exchanged, mortgage-backed securities present lower credit risk by virtue of the guarantees that back them, are more liquid than individual mortgage loans, and may be used to collateralize borrowings or other obligations of the Company. Further, mortgage-backed securities provide a monthly stream of both interest and principal, thereby providing the Company with a cash flow to reinvest at current market rates and limit the Company’s interest rate risk.

At December 31, 2006, the Company held approximately $35.3 million in fixed rate mortgage backed securities with an average life of approximately 5.6 years and a modified duration of approximately 4.3 years. The Company held approximately $1.0 million in adjustable rate mortgage backed securities with an average life of approximately 4.5 years and a modified duration of approximately 3.6 years.


Table of Contents

At December 31, 2006, the Company held approximately $13.9 million in Collateral Mortgage Obligations (CMO). A CMO is a form of mortgage-backed security that has a structured payment stream based on various factors and does not necessarily remit monthly principal on a pro-rata basis. At December 31, 2006, the Company’s CMO portfolio had an average life of approximately 2.0 years and a modified duration of approximately 1.8 years. Approximately $1.5 million of the CMO portfolio is not guaranteed by U.S. Government Agencies. These instruments are collateralized by an abundance of collateral in the form of home mortgages and carry an AAA rating by Standards and Poor. Approximately $5.1 million of the CMO portfolio was issued by the Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA) and approximately $7.3 million was issued by the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC).

Interest Rate Sensitivity Analysis

The Company’s profitability is affected by fluctuations in interest rates. A sudden and substantial increase or decrease in interest rates may adversely impact the Company’s earnings to the extent that the interest rates on interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities do not change at the same speed, to the same extent or on the same basis. As part of its effort to manage interest rate risk, the Bank monitors its net portfolio value (NPV), a methodology adopted by the OTS to assist the Bank in assessing interest rate risk.

Generally, NPV is the discounted present value of the difference between incoming cash flows on interest-earning assets and other assets and outgoing cash flows on interest-bearing liabilities and other liabilities. The application of the methodology attempts to quantify interest rate risk as the change in the NPV, which would result from a theoretical 200 basis point (1 basis point equals .01%) change in market rates. Both a 300 basis point increase in market interest rates and a 100 basis point decrease in market interest rates are considered. The following table presents the Bank’s NPV at December 31, 2006, as calculated by the OTS, based on information provided to the OTS by the Bank.

The computation of prospective effects of hypothetical interest rate changes are based on numerous assumptions, including relative levels of market interest rates, loan prepayments and deposit decay rates, and should not be relied upon as indicative of actual results. The computations do not contemplate any actions the Bank could undertake in response to changes in interest rates. The matching of assets and liabilities may be analyzed by examining the extent to which such assets and liabilities are “interest rate sensitive” and by monitoring an institution’s interest rate sensitivity “gap.” An asset or liability is said to be interest rate sensitive within a specific period if it will mature or re-price within that period.

The interest rate sensitivity gap is defined as the difference between the amount of interest-earning assets maturing or re-pricing within a specific time period and the amount of interest-bearing liabilities maturing or re-pricing within that time period.


Table of Contents

A gap is considered positive when the amount of interest rate sensitive assets exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities, and is considered negative when the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive assets. At December 31, 2006, the Company had a negative one-year or less interest rate sensitivity gap of 13.20% of total interest-earning assets. Generally, during a period of rising interest rates, a negative gap position would be expected to adversely affect net interest income while a positive gap position would be expected to result in an increase in net interest income. Conversely during a period of falling interest rates, a negative gap would be expected to result in an increase in net interest income and a positive gap would be expected to adversely affect net interest income. The following table sets forth the amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities outstanding at December 31, 2006, which are expected to mature or re-price in each of the time periods shown.

The preceding table was prepared based upon the assumption that loans will not be repaid before their respective contractual maturities, except for adjustable rate loans, which are classified, based upon their next re-pricing date. Further, it is assumed that fixed maturity deposits are not withdrawn prior to maturity and other deposits are withdrawn or re-priced within one year. Mortgage-backed securities are classified based on their lifetime prepayment speeds. Management of the Company does not believe that these assumptions will be materially different from the Company’s actual experience. However, the actual interest rate sensitivity of the Company’s assets and liabilities could vary significantly from the information set forth in the table due to market and other factors. The retention of adjustable-rate mortgage loans in the Company’s portfolio helps reduce the Company’s exposure to changes in interest rates. However, there are unquantifiable credit risks resulting from potential increased costs to borrowers as a result of re-pricing adjustable-rate mortgage loans. It is possible that during periods of rising interest rates, the risk of default on adjustable-rate mortgage loans may increase due to the upward adjustment of interest costs to the borrowers.

Average Balance, Interest and Average Yields and Rates

The following table sets forth certain information relating to the Company’s average interest-earning assets and average interest-bearing liabilities and reflects the average yield on assets and average cost of liabilities for the periods and at the date indicated. Such yields and costs are derived by dividing income or expense by the average monthly balance of assets or liabilities, respectively, for the periods presented. Average balances are derived from month-end balances. Management does not believe that the use of month-end balances instead of daily balances has caused any material difference in the information presented.

The table also presents information for the periods and at the date indicated with respect to the difference between the average yield earned on interest-earning assets and average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities, or “interest rate spread,” which savings institutions have traditionally used as an indicator of profitability. Another indicator of an institution’s net interest income is its “net yield on interest-earning assets,” which is its net interest income divided by the average balance of interest-earning assets. Net interest income is affected by the interest rate spread and by the relative amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. When interest-earning assets approximate or exceed interest-bearing liabilities, any positive interest rate spread will generate net interest income.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The financial information contained within these statements is, to a significant extent, financial information that is based on appropriate measures of the financial effects of transactions and events that have already occurred. Based on its consideration of accounting policies that involved the most complex and subjective decisions and assessments, management has identified its most critical accounting policy to be that related to the allowance for loan losses. The Company’s allowance for loan loss methodology incorporates a variety of risk considerations, both quantitative and qualitative; in establishing an allowance for loan loss that management believes is appropriate at each reporting date. Quantitative factors included the Company’s historical loss experience, delinquency and charge-off trends, collateral values, changes in non-performing loans, and other factors. Quantitative factors also incorporate known information about individual loans, including borrower’s sensitivity to economic conditions throughout the southeast and particular, the state of certain industries. Size and complexity of individual credits in relation to loan structure, existing loan policies and pace of portfolio growth are other qualitative factors that are considered in the methodology. As the Company adds new products and increases the complexity of the loan portfolio, its methodology accordingly may change. In addition, it may report materially different amounts for the provision for loan losses in the statement of operations if management’s assessment of the above factors change in future periods. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes presented elsewhere herein. Although management believes the levels of the allowance for loan losses as of both December 31, 2006 and 2005 were adequate to absorb inherent losses in the loan portfolio, a decline in local economic conditions, or other factors, could result in increasing losses that cannot be reasonably predicted at this time. The Company also considers it policy on non-accrual loans as a critical accounting policy. Loans are placed on non-accrual when a loan is specifically determined to be impaired or when principal or interest is delinquent for 91 days or more. Any accrued interest on these loans is reserved for as part of management’s evaluation of the allowance for loan loss account.

The increase in the loan activity during the year ended December 31, 2006 was due to increased economic activity in many of the Company’s markets, and the fourth quarter 2005 expansion of the Company’s trade area to include Clarksville, Montgomery County, Tennessee. Clarksville is approximately 25 miles south of the Company’s headquarters with a population of approximately 130,000, twice that of the Company’s home (and largest) market. In June 2006, the Company purchased loans totaling $34.5 million as part of the Middle Tennessee acquisition. For the year ended December 31, 2006, the Company’s average yield on loans was 7.06%, compared with 5.96% for the year ended December 31, 2005.

At December 31, 2006, the Company’s investments classified as held to maturity were carried at an amortized cost of $18.0 million and had an estimated fair market value of $17.7 million, and its securities classified as available for sale had an estimated fair market value of $183.3 million and an amortized cost of $186.5 million. At December 31, 2006, the Company’s investment in Federal Home Loan Bank stock was carried at an amortized cost of $3.6 million. See Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

The allowance for loan losses totaled $4.5 million at December 31, 2006, an increase of $466,000 from the allowance for loan losses of $4.0 million at December 31, 2005. The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to loans was 0.90% and 1.00% at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Also, at December 31, 2006, the Company’s non-accrual loans and loans past due 90 days or more were $863,000, or 0.17% of total loans, compared to $996,000, or 0.25% of total loans, at December 31, 2005. The Company’s ratio of allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans at December 31, 2006 and 2005 was 517.96% and 402.01%, respectively.

The increase in net interest income for the year ended December 31, 2006 was the result of loan and investment portfolio growth and an increase in short-term interest rates. For the year ended December 31, 2006, the Company’s tax equivalent average yield on total interest-earning assets was 6.30% compared to 5.39% for the year ended December 31, 2005, and its average cost of interest-bearing liabilities was 3.85%, compared to 3.00% for the year ended December 31, 2005.

Interest Income. Interest income increased $11.0 million from $29.7 million to $40.7 million, or by 37.1% during the year ended December 31, 2006 compared to 2005. The increase was attributable to an increase in loan and investment volume as well as an increase in short-term interest rates on such interest-earning assets. The average balance on securities held to maturity declined approximately $3.0 million, from $21.4 million at December 31, 2005 to $18.4 million at December 31, 2006. The average balance on taxable securities available for sale increased $14.3 million, from $142.9 million at December 31, 2005 to $157.2 million at December 31, 2006.

Interest Expense. Interest expense increased to $23.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2006 compared to $15.5 million for 2005. The increase in interest expense was attributable to an increase in the average balances of both deposit and Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) borrowings as well as an increase in short-term interest rates. The average cost of average interest-bearing liabilities increased from 3.00% for the year ended December 31, 2005 to 3.85% for the year ended December 31, 2006.


Table of Contents

Over the same period, the average balance of interest bearing deposits increased from $424.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2005 to $471.8 million at December 31, 2006.

Non-Interest Income. Non-interest income increased by $1.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2006 to $5.8 million, compared to $4.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2005. The increase in non-interest income is the result of higher income realized on an increase in checking accounts and a larger number of loan applications. Gains on sales of loans and securities decreased from $518,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005 to $192,000 for the year ended December 31, 2006. The decrease in gains on the sale of securities is the result of the sale of the Bank’s data processing provider, Intrieve, Inc in 2005.

Non-Interest Expense. Total non-interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2006 was $16.5 million, compared to $11.6 million in 2005. The increase was the result of several factors, including the June 2006 acquisition of four retail offices in Middle Tennessee, the addition of a new office in Hopkinsville, Kentucky, the additional of one office in Clarksville, Tennessee and the planned addition of two additional Clarksville offices. The Company’s expansion plans include an additional office in Murray, Kentucky in 2007.

Income Taxes. The effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2006 was 30.3% compared with an effective tax rate of 29.7% for the year ended December 31, 2005.

Interest Expense. Interest expense increased to $15.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2005 compared to $12.5 million for 2004. The increase in interest expense was attributable to an increase in the average balances of both deposit and Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) borrowings as well as an increase in short-term interest rates.

Table of Contents

Over the same period, the average balance of interest bearing deposits increased from $400.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2004 to $424.9 million at December 31, 2005.

Non-Interest Income. Non-interest income increased by $1.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2005 to $4.5 million, compared to $3.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2004. The increase in non-interest income is the result of higher income realized on deposit accounts. Gains on sales of loans and securities increased from $405,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004 to $518,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005. The increase in gains on the sale of securities is the result of the sale of the Bank’s data processing provider, Intrieve, Inc. The Bank had a $15,000 equity investment in Intrieve. In April 2005, Intrieve sold to Harland Financial Services and the Bank recognized a gain of approximately $345,000.

Non-Interest Expense. Total non-interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2005 was $11.6 million, compared to $10.0 million in 2004. The increase was the result of the Company hiring additional staff to fund both increased business activity as well as to increase operational staff to increase its retail-banking network into both current and new markets in 2006. The Company’s expansion plans in 2006 include at least two offices in Clarksville, Tennessee and one additional office in both Hopkinsville and Murray, Kentucky.

Income Taxes. The effective tax rate for the years ended December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004 was 29.7%.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s primary business is that of the Bank. Management believes dividends that may be paid from the Bank to the Company will provide sufficient funds for the Company’s current and anticipated needs; however, no assurance can be given that the Company will not have a need for additional funds in the future. The Bank is subject to certain regulatory limitations with respect to the payment of dividends to the Company.

Capital Resources. At December 31, 2006, the Bank exceeded all regulatory minimum capital requirements. For a detailed discussion of the OTS’ regulatory capital requirements, and for a tabular presentation of the Bank’s compliance with such requirements, see Note 15 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Liquidity. Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of business management. If the Bank requires funds beyond its ability to generate them internally, the Bank believes that it could borrow funds from the FHLB. At December 31, 2006, the Bank had outstanding advances of $113.6 million from the FHLB. The Bank can immediately borrow an additional $20.4 million from the FHLB and can borrow an additional $70.4 million with the purchase of additional capital stock. See Note 7 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Subordinated Debentures Issuance. On September 25, 2003, the Company issued $10,310,000 of subordinated debentures in a private placement offering. The securities have a thirty-year maturity and are callable at the issuer’s discretion on a quarterly basis beginning five years after issuance. The securities are priced at a variable rate equal to the three-month libor (London Interbank Offering Rate) plus 3.10%. Interest is paid and the rate of interest may change on a quarterly basis. The Company’s subsidiary, a federal chartered thrift supervised by the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) may recognize the proceeds of trust preferred securities as capital. OTS regulations provide that 25% of Tier I capital may consist of trust preferred proceeds. See Note 10 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Bank’s primary sources of funds consist of deposits, repayment of loans and mortgage-backed securities, maturities of investments and interest-bearing deposits, and funds provided from operations. While scheduled repayments of loans and mortgage-backed securities and maturities of investment securities are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by the general level of interest rates, economic conditions and competition.


Table of Contents

The Bank uses its liquidity resources principally to fund existing and future loan commitments, to fund maturing certificates of deposit and demand deposit withdrawals, to invest in other interest-earning assets, to maintain liquidity, and to meet operating expenses.

Management believes that loan repayments and other sources of funds will be adequate to meet the Bank’s liquidity needs for the immediate future. A portion of the Bank’s liquidity consists of cash and cash equivalents. At December 31, 2006, cash and cash equivalents totaled $21.9 million. The level of these assets depends upon the Bank’s operating, investing and financing activities during any given period.

Cash flows from operating activities for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 were $5.3 million, $5.1 million, and $6.3 million, respectively.

Cash flows from investing activities were a net use of funds of $60.0 million, $63.8 million and $47.3 million in 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. A principal use of cash in this area has been purchases of securities available for sale of $51.3 million offset by proceeds from sales, calls and maturities of securities of $41.6 million during 2006. At the same time, the investment of cash in loans was $65.2 million in 2006, $42.6 million in 2005 and $23.3 million in 2004. Purchases of securities available for sale exceeded maturities and sales by $9.7 million in 2006, $21.6 million in 2005 and $15.0 million in 2004. Purchases of securities classified as held to maturity exceeded maturities, calls and cash flow by $7.4 million in 2004. There were no purchases of held to maturity securities in 2006 and 2005.

At December 31, 2006, the Bank had $46.5 million in outstanding commitments to originate loans and unused lines of credit of $40.4 million. The Bank anticipates that it will have sufficient funds available to meet its current loan origination and lines of credit commitments. Certificates of deposit, which are scheduled to mature in one year or less totaled $204.8 million at December 31, 2006. Based on historical experience, management believes that a significant portion of such deposits will remain with the Bank.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices

The consolidated financial statements and notes thereto presented herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without considering the change in the relative purchasing power of money over time and due to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of the Bank’s operations.

Unlike most industrial companies, nearly all the assets and liabilities of the Company are monetary in nature. As a result, changes in interest rates have a greater impact on the Company’s performance than do the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the price of goods and services.

Forward-Looking Statements

Management’s discussion and analysis includes certain forward-looking statements addressing, among other things, the Bank’s prospects for earnings, asset growth and net interest margin. Forward-looking statements are accompanied by, and identified with, such terms as “anticipates,” “believes,” “expects,” “intends,” and similar phrases. Management’s expectations for the Bank’s future involve a number of assumptions and estimates. Factors that could cause actual results to differ from the expectations expressed herein include: substantial changes in interest rates, and changes in the general economy; changes in the Bank’s strategies for credit-risk management, interest-rate risk management and investment activities. Accordingly, any forward-looking statements included herein do not purport to be predictions of future events or circumstances and may not be realized.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders

of HopFed Bancorp, Inc.

Hopkinsville, Kentucky

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of HopFed Bancorp, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2006 and 2005 and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2006. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. As of and for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, the Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of HopFed Bancorp, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2006 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

As disclosed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company changed its method of accounting for its stock compensation plan to comply with new accounting guidance.

(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

Nature of Operations and Customer Concentration

HopFed Bancorp, Inc. (the Corporation) is a bank holding company incorporated in the state of Delaware. The Company’s principal business activities are conducted through it’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Heritage Bank (the Bank), which is a federally chartered savings bank engaged in the business of accepting deposits and providing mortgage, consumer, construction and commercial loans to the general public through its retail banking offices. The Bank’s business activities are primarily limited to western Kentucky and middle and western Tennessee. The Bank is subject to competition from other financial institutions. Deposits at the Bank are insured up to the applicable limits by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). The Bank is subject to comprehensive regulation, examination and supervision by the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) and the FDIC.

A substantial portion of the Bank’s loans are secured by real estate in the western Kentucky and middle and west Tennessee markets. In addition, foreclosed real estate is located in this same market. Accordingly, the ultimate collectability of a substantial portion of the Bank’s loan portfolio and the recovery of a substantial portion of the carrying amount of foreclosed real estate is susceptible to changes in local market conditions.

Management believes that the allowance for loan losses is adequate. While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans and foreclosed real estate, future additions to the allowances may be necessary based on changes in local economic conditions. In addition, regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Bank’s allowances for losses on loans and foreclosed real estate. Such agencies may require the Bank to recognize additions to the allowances based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Corporation, the Bank and its wholly-owned subsidiary Fall & Fall Insurance (collectively the Company) for all periods. Significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Accounting

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and conform to general practices in the banking industry.

(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies: (Continued)

Estimates

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated balance sheet and revenues and expenses for the year. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses and the valuation of real estate acquired in connection with foreclosures or in satisfaction of loans. In connection with the determination of the allowances for loan losses and foreclosed real estate, management obtains independent appraisals for significant properties.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are defined as cash on hand, amounts due on demand from banks, interest-earning deposits in the Federal Home Loan Bank and federal funds sold with maturities of three months or less.

Securities

The Company reports debt, readily-marketable equity, mortgage-backed and mortgage related securities in one of the following categories: (i) “held to maturity” (management has a positive intent and ability to hold to maturity) which are to be reported at cost, adjusted for premiums and discounts that are recognized in interest income; (ii) “trading” (held for current resale) which are to be reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included in earnings; and (iii) “available for sale” (all other debt, equity, mortgage-backed and mortgage related securities) which are to be reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses reported net of tax as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. At the time of new security purchases, a determination is made as to the appropriate classification. Realized and unrealized gains and losses on trading securities are included in net income. Unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale are recognized as direct increases or decreases in stockholders’ equity, net of any tax effect. Cost of securities sold is recognized using the specific identification method.

Interest income on securities is recognized as earned. The Company purchases many agency bonds at either a premium or discount to its par value. Premiums and discounts on agency bonds are amortized using the net interest method. For callable bonds purchased at a premium, the premium is amortized to the first call date. If the bond is not called on that date, the premium is fully amortized and the Company recognizes an increase in the net yield of the investment. For agency bonds purchased at a discount, the discount is accreted to the final maturity date. For callable bonds purchased at discount and called before maturity, the Company recognizes a gain on the sale of securities. The Company amortizes premiums and accretes discounts on mortgage back securities and collateralized mortgage obligations based on the average prepayment speeds in the three previous months.

Other Securities

Other securities, such as Federal Home Loan Bank stock and Intrieve, Inc. stock, are recognized at cost. In April 2005, the entire balance of Intrieve stock was sold. In 2006, the Company received approximately $18,000 in additional proceeds from this sale.

(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies: (Continued)

Loans Receivable

Loans receivable are stated at unpaid principal balances, less the allowance for loan losses and discounts.

Discounts on home improvement and consumer loans are recognized over the lives of the loans using the interest method. Loan origination fee income is recognized as received and direct loan origination costs are expensed as incurred. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) 91, Nonrefundable Fees & Costs Associated with Originating or Acquiring Loans and Initial Direct Costs of Leases, requires the recognition of loan origination fee income over the life of the loan and the recognition of certain direct loan origination costs over the life of the loan. However, deferral of such fees and costs would not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

Uncollectible interest on loans that are contractually past due is charged off, or an allowance is established based on management’s periodic evaluation. The Company charges off loans after, in management’s opinion, the collection of all or a large portion of the principal or interest is not collectable. The allowance is established by a charge to interest income equal to all interest previously accrued, and income is subsequently recognized only to the extent that cash payments are received while the loan is classified as nonaccrual. Loans may be returned to accrual status when all principal and interest amounts contractually due (including arrearages) are reasonably assured of repayment within an acceptable period of time, and there is a sustained period of repayment performance by the borrower in accordance with the contractual terms of interest and principal.

The Bank provides an allowance for loan losses and includes in operating expenses a provision for loan losses determined by management. Management’s periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is based on the Bank’s past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, and current economic conditions. Management’s estimate of the adequacy of the allowance for loan loss can be classified as either a reserve for currently classified loans or estimates of future losses in the current loan portfolio.

Loans are considered to be impaired when, in management’s judgment, principal or interest is not collectible according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. When conducting loan evaluations, management considers various factors such as historical loan performance, the financial condition of the borrower and adequacy of collateral to determine if a loan is impaired. Impaired loans may be classified as either substandard or doubtful and reserved for based on individual loans risk for loss. Loans not considered impaired may be classified as either special mention or watch and may be reserved for. Typically, unimpaired classified loans exhibit some form of weakness in either industry trends, collateral, or cash flow that result in a default risk greater than that of the Company’s typical loan. All classified amounts include all unpaid interest and fees as well as the principal balance outstanding.

(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies: (Continued)

Loans Receivable (Continued)

The measurement of impaired loans generally is based on the present value of future cash flows discounted at the historical effective interest rate, except that collateral-dependent loans generally are measured for impairment based on the fair value of the collateral. When the measured amount of an impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan, the impairment is recorded as a charge to income and a valuation allowance, which is included as a component of the allowance for loan losses.

Management considers both the Bank’s recent charge off history as well as industry trends when making an estimate as to the amount to reserve for losses in the current loan portfolio that are not individually classified. Industry trends are an especially important consideration as the Company’s loan portfolio mix is changing. Portions of the loan portfolio, including commercial loans and non-residential real estate, have seen sizable increases in the last three years. Management believes that the limited time frame that these loans have been outstanding is not adequate for the development of a reasonable loss history. Management believes it has established the allowance in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and has taken into account the views of its regulators and the current economic environment.

Fixed Rate Mortgage Originations

The Bank originates fixed rate first mortgage loans for customers in its local markets and selling these loans on the secondary market with the Bank retaining servicing rights. For the year ended December 31, 2006, the Bank maintained a servicing portfolio of one to four family real estate loans of approximately $42.1 million. For the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005, and 2004, the Bank has reviewed the value of the servicing asset as well as the operational cost associated with servicing the portfolio. After this review, the Bank has determined that the values of its servicing rights are not material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Foreclosed Assets

Assets acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are carried at the lower of cost or fair value less selling expenses. Costs of improving the assets are capitalized, whereas costs relating to holding the property are expensed. Management conducts periodic valuations and any adjustments to value are recognized in the current period’s operations.

Brokered Deposits

The Company may chose to attract deposits from several sources, including using outside brokers to assist in obtaining time deposits using national distribution channels. Brokered deposits offer the Company an alternative to Federal Home Loan Bank advances.

Repurchase Agreements

The Company sells investments from its portfolio to business and municipal customers with a written agreement to repurchase those investments on the next business day. The repurchase product gives business customers the opportunity to earn income on liquid cash reserves. These funds are overnight borrowings of the Company secured by Company assets and are not FDIC insured. The Company has also entered repurchase agreement with a third party. The repurchase agreement has a ten year maturity and is callable quarterly after September 18, 2007.

(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies: (Continued)

Revenue Recognition

Mortgage loans held for sale are generally delivered to secondary market investors under firm sales commitments entered into prior to the closing of the individual loan. Loan sales and related gains or losses are recognized at settlement. Loan fees earned for the servicing of secondary market loans are recognized as earned.

Interest income on loans receivable is reported on the interest method. Interest income is not reported when full loan repayment is in doubt, typically when the loan is impaired or payments are past due more than 90 days. Interest continues to accrue on loans over 90 days past due if they are well secured and in the process of collection.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for through the use of the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred taxes are recognized for the tax consequences of temporary differences by applying enacted statutory rates applicable to future years to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates would be recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company files its federal income tax return on a consolidated basis with its subsidiaries. All taxes are accrued on a separate entity basis.

Operating Segments

The Company’s continuing operations include one primary segment, retail banking. The retail banking segment involves the origination of commercial, residential and consumer loans as well as the collections of deposits in fifteen branch offices.

Premises and Equipment

Land, land improvements, buildings, and furniture and equipment are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Buildings and land improvements are depreciated generally by the straight-line method, and furniture and equipment are depreciated under various methods over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The Company capitalizes interest expense on construction in process at a rate equal to the Company’s cost of funds. The estimated useful lives used to compute depreciation are as follows:

 

Land improvements

   5-15 years

Buildings

   40 years

Furniture and equipment

   5-15 years

Goodwill

In accordance with SFAS 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, goodwill is no longer amortized, but instead tested for impairment at least annually.

(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies: (Continued)

Intangible Assets

The intangible assets for insurance contracts and core deposits related to the Fulton acquisition of September 2002 are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated period of benefit of seven years. The core deposit intangible asset related to the middle Tennessee acquisition of June 2006 is amortized using the sum of the year’s digits method over an estimated period of nine years. The Company periodically evaluates the recoverability of the intangible assets and takes into account events or circumstances that warrant a revised estimate of the useful lives or indicates that impairment exists.

Bank Owned Life Insurance

Bank Owned Life Insurance policies (BOLI) are recorded at the cash surrender value or the amount to be realized upon current redemption.

Advertising

The Company expenses the production cost of advertising as incurred.

Financial Instruments

The Company has entered into off-balance-sheet financial instruments consisting of commitments to extend credit and commercial letters of credit. Such financial instruments are recorded in the consolidated financial statements when they are funded or related fees are incurred or received.

Derivative Instruments:

In 2004, the Company entered into a swap transaction in the amount of $10 million with a financial institution. The critical terms of the interest rate swap match the term of the corresponding variable rate subordinated debt issuance. All components of the derivative instrument’s gain or loss are included in the assessment of hedge effectiveness.

Under guidelines of SFAS 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as amended, all derivative instruments are required to be carried at fair value on the consolidated balance sheet. SFAS 133 provides special hedge accounting provisions, which permit the change in fair value of the hedge item related to the risk being hedged to be recognized in earnings in the same period and in the same income statement line as the change in the fair value of the derivative.

A derivative instrument designated in a hedge relationship to mitigate exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, such as interest rate risk, are considered fair value hedges under SFAS 133.

Derivative instruments designated in a hedge relationship to mitigate exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. Using these guidelines, The Company has documented the use of the above-mentioned swap as a cash flow hedge prior to its sale in January 2006.

(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies: (Continued)

Derivative Instruments: (Continued)

Cash value hedges are accounted for by recording the fair value of the derivative instrument and the fair value related to the risk being hedged of the hedged asset or liability on the consolidated balance sheet with corresponding offsets recorded in the consolidated balance sheet. The adjustment to the hedged asset or liability is included in the basis of the hedged item, while the fair value of the derivative is recorded as a freestanding asset or liability. Actual cash receipts or payments and related amounts accrued during the period on derivatives included in a fair value hedge relationship are recorded as adjustments to the income or expense recorded on the hedged asset or liability.

Under both the fair value and cash flow hedge methods, derivative gains and losses not effective in hedging the change in fair value or expected cash flows of the hedged item are recognized immediately in the income statement. At the hedge’s inception and at least quarterly thereafter, a formal assessment is performed to determine whether changes in the fair values or cash flows of the derivative instrument has been highly effective in offsetting changes in the fair values or cash flows of the hedged items and whether they are expected to be highly effective in the future. If it is determined a derivative instrument has not been, or will not continue to be highly effective as a hedge, hedged accounting is discontinued. SFAS 133 basis adjustments recorded on hedged assets and liabilities are amortized over the remaining life of the hedged item beginning no later than when hedge accounting ceases. There were no fair value hedging gains or losses, as a result of hedge ineffectiveness, recognized for the year ended December 31, 2006. The Company recognized $26,000 in interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2005 related to the interest rate swap.

In January 2006, the Bank settled the interest rate swap at a net gain of approximately $270,000. The Company will recognize this gain as a reduction of interest expense in equal installments on a quarterly basis beginning with the three month period ending March 31, 2006 through the three month period ending September 30, 2008. For the year ended December 31, 2006, borrowing cost related to subordinated debentures was reduced by $98,240 as a result of the settled interest rate swap.

The Bank, in the normal course of business, originates fixed rate mortgages that are sold to the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac). Upon tentative underwriting approval by Freddie Mac, the Bank issues a thirty-day commitment to originate a fixed rate first mortgage under specific terms and conditions that the Bank intends to sell to Freddie Mac. As part of its activities to mitigate interest rate risk in the mortgage lending function, the Bank may commit to guarantee delivery of specific loan amounts, at specific yields, at specific dates to Freddie Mac with or without identifying specific closed loans. The Bank’s failure to deliver loans under the terms and conditions of the commitment may result in a future liability to the Bank. SFAS 149, Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, provides guidance on the types of loan commitments that are derivatives under SFAS 133 (and therefore required to be accounted for as derivatives) under the scope of SFAS 133. Generally, only commitments to originate mortgage loans that will be held for sale by the issuer of the loan are derivatives under the scope of SFAS 133. See Note 14 for additional information.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments

SFAS 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the consolidated balance sheets for which it is practicable to estimate that value. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. In that regard, the derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, could not be realized in immediate settlement of the instruments. Fair value estimates are made at a point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. Accordingly, such estimates involve uncertainties and matters of judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. SFAS 107 excludes certain financial instruments and all non-financial instruments from its disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented do not represent the underlying value of the Company.

The following are the more significant methods and assumptions used by the Company in estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments:

Cash and cash equivalents

The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents approximate those assets’ fair values, because they mature within 90 days or less and do not present credit risk concerns.

Available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities

Fair values for investment securities available-for-sale and held-to-maturity are based on quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments.

Loans receivable

The fair values for loans receivable are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis which considers future re-pricing dates and estimated repayment dates, and further using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. Loan fair value estimates include judgments regarding future expected loss experience and risk characteristics.

Accrued interest receivable

Fair value is estimated to approximate the carrying amount because such amounts are expected to be received within 90 days or less and any credit concerns have been previously considered in the carrying value.

Repurchase agreements

Overnight repurchase agreements have a fair value at book, given that they mature overnight. Longer maturity repurchase agreements are assigned a fair value of book given the limited nature a secondary market.

Bank owned life insurance

The fair value of bank owned life insurance is the cash value of the policy.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments (Continued)

Deposits

The fair values disclosed for deposits with no stated maturity such as demand deposits, interest-bearing checking accounts and savings accounts are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (that is, their carrying amounts). The fair values for certificates of deposit and other fixed maturity time deposits are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on such type accounts to a schedule of aggregated contractual maturities on such time deposits.

Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank

The fair value of these advances is estimated by discounting the future cash flows of these advances using the current rates at which similar advances could be obtained.

FHLB stock

The fair value of FHLB stock is recognized at cost.

Subordinated debentures

The fair value of subordinated debentures is cost. The subordinated debentures reprice quarterly at a rate equal to three month libor plus 3.10%.

Off-Balance-Sheet Instruments

Off-balance-sheet lending commitments approximate their fair values due to the short period of time before the commitment expires.

Earnings Per Share

Earnings per share (EPS) consists of two separate components, basic EPS and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for each period presented. Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus dilutive common stock equivalents (CSE). CSE consists of dilutive stock options granted through the Company’s stock option plan. Restricted stock awards represent future compensation expense and are dilutive. Common stock equivalents which are considered anti-dilutive are not included for the purposes of this calculation.

Stock Compensation

On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R, Share Based Payment (as amended). SFAS No. 123R established accounting requirements for share-based compensation to employees and carries forward prior guidance on share-based awards to non-employees. SFAS No. 123R eliminates the ability to account for share-based compensation transactions, as the Company did, using the intrinsic value method as prescribed by Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and generally requires that such transactions be accounted for using a fair-value-based method and recognized as an expense in the accompanying consolidated statement of income.

Stock Compensation: (Continued)

The Company adopted SFAS No. 123R using the modified prospective method which requires the application of the accounting standard as of January 1, 2006. The consolidated condensed financial statement dated March 31, 2006 was the first to reflect the impact of adopting SFAS No. 123R. In accordance with the modified prospective method, the consolidated financial statements for prior periods have not been restated to reflect, and do not include, the impact of SFAS No. 123R.

For the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2006, the implementation of SFAS No. 123R had the following affect on the Company’s consolidated financial statement:

 

Income before income tax expense

   $ (29,000 )

Net income

   $ (29,000 )

Basic earnings per share

   $ (0.01 )
        

Fully diluted earnings per share

   $ (0.01 )
        

At December 31, 2006, the Company has 10,000 unvested stock options, with 5,000 options vesting in May 2007 and 5,000 options vesting in May 2008. All other options are fully vested. As a result of adopting SFAS No. 123R, the Company will incur additional after tax expense related to the vesting of stock options of approximately $14,400 in 2007 and approximately $6,000 in 2008.

The Company utilized the Black-Scholes valuation model to determine the fair value of stock options on the date of grant. The model derives the fair value of stock options based on certain assumptions related to the expected stock prices volatility, expected option life, risk-free rate of return and the dividend yield of the stock. The expected live of options granted are estimated based on historical employee exercise behavior. The risk free rate of return coincides with the expected life of the options and is based on the ten year Treasury note rate at the time the options are issued. The historical volatility levels of the Company’s common stock are used to estimate the expected stock price volatility. The set dividend yield is used to estimate the expected dividend yield of the stock.

SFAS No. 123R requires certain additional disclosures beyond what was included in the Company’s 2005 Annual Report. The value of vested options outstanding at December 31, 2006 as $1.6 million for options issued under the 1999 Plan and $145,000 for options vested under the 2000 Plan. The fair value of options vested in 2006 is $29,400. Shares issued for option exercises are expected to come from authorized but unissued shares.

Stock Compensation: (Continued)

The Company’s Compensation Committee granted 12,328 shares of restricted stock in 2006, 9,795 shares of restricted stock in 2005, and 8,887 shares of restricted stock in 2004. These shares vest over a four-year period but vesting may be accelerated as a result of factors outlined in the award agreement. The Company incurred compensation expense related to the HopFed Bancorp, Inc. 2004 Long Term Incentive Plan of $100,000 in 2006, $57,000 in 2005 and $18,000 in 2004. The table below outlines the Company’s future compensation expense related to the HopFed Bancorp, Inc. 2004 Long Term Incentive Plan for the years indicated:

December 31, 2008

   $ 106

December 31, 2009

   $ 64

December 31, 2010

   $ 32

The Compensation Committee may make additional awards of restricted stock, thereby increasing the future expense related to this plan. The early vesting of restricted stock awards due to factors outlined in the award agreement may accelerate future compensation expenses related to the plan. However, the total amount of future compensation expense would not change as a result of an accelerated vesting of shares.

Effective January 1, 2006, the contra equity account Unearned Restricted Stock with a balance of $230,000 was transferred to Additional Paid-in Capital.

Effect of New Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB No. 109. This interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the Company’s financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. The interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The interpretation also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim period, disclosure and transition. FASB Interpretation No. 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2006. The Company is currently in the process of evaluation the impact of the implementation of FASB Interpretation No. 48.

Effect of New Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)

In December 2004, the FASB revised SFAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. SFAS 123R establishes accounting requirements for share-based compensation to employees and carries forward prior guidance on share-based for awards to non-employees. The provisions of this statement will become effective July 1, 2005 for all equity awards granted after the effective date. In March 2005, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (SAB 107). SAB 107 expresses the views of the SEC staff regarding the interaction of FAS 123R and certain SEC rules and regulations and provides the SEC staff’s view regarding the valuation of share based payment arrangements for public companies. In April 2005, an amendment was issued to SFAS No. 123R regarding the compliance date for implementation. The Company will prospectively adopt SFAS 123R on January 1, 2006, as required by the amendment. SFAS 123R requires an entity to estimate the number of awards expected to actually vest, exclusive of awards expected to be forfeited. Currently, the Company recognizes forfeitures as they occur. For the year ending December 31, 2006, the Company recognized additional compensation expense of approximately $29,000.

In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections – a Replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3. This Statement replaces APB Opinion No. 20, Accounting Changes, and FASB Statement No. 3, Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements, and changes the requirements for the accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle. This Statement requires retrospective application to prior accounting periods’ financial statements of changes in accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the accounting principle. It also applies to changes required by accounting pronouncement in the unusual instance that the pronouncement does not include specific transition provisions. This Statement is effective for accounting changes and error corrections made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The effects of this Statement is not expected to have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

In November 2005, FASB Staff Position (FSP) FAS Nos. 115-1 and FAS 124-1 “The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and its Application to Certain Investment” was issued. The FSP nullifies certain requirements of Issue 03-01 and supersedes Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Topic No. D-44, “Recognition of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment upon the Planned Sale of a Security Whose Cost Exceeds Fair Value.” This FSP nullified the requirements of paragraphs 10-18 of Issue 03-01 and related examples. The guidance in this FSP shall be applied to reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2005. The adoption of this FSP in 2006 did not have a material impact on the financial condition, the results of operations, or cash flows of the Company.

(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies: (Continued)

Effect of New Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)

In September 2005, the FASB issued an Exposure Draft, Earnings Per Share, an amendment of SFAS 128. This Exposure Draft would amend SFAS 128, Earnings Per Share, to clarify guidance for mandatory convertible instruments, the treasury stock method, contracts that may be settled in cash or shares and shares that may be issued. The proposed Exposure Draft as currently drafted would be effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2006. Retrospective application would be required for all changes to SFAS 128, except that retrospective application would be prohibited for contracts that were either settled in cash prior to the adoption or modified prior to the adoption to require cash settlement.

In March of 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets, an amendment to FASB Statement No. 140 (FASB 156). SFAS 156 permits, but does not require, an entity to account for one or more classes of servicing rights at fair value, which the changes in fair value recorded on the Company’s consolidated statement of income. The Company has a mortgage servicing portfolio of approximately $41.2 million. The Company has chosen not to recognize servicing rights as an asset on its financial statements and thus has chosen not to implement. SFAS 156.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under GAAP and Enhances disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for or asset or paid to transfer a liability in the most economical market on the measurement date. SFAS is effective for the Company’s financial statements issued for the year beginning January 1, 2008. Management has not yet evaluated the impact of the adoption of SFAS 157 on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, Fair Value Option Statement for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities - including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (SFAS 159). SFAS No. 159 allows an entity the irrevocable option to elect fair value for the initial and subsequent measurement for certain financial assets and liabilities on an individual basis. Future changes in the fair value of these financial instruments would be recognized on the current period’s statement of income while establishing additional disclosure requirements for these financial instruments. The stated objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. FASB No. 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. The Company has not determined whether the adoption of this statement will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

FHLB stock is an equity interest in the Federal Home Loan Bank. The Bank had an equity interest in Intrieve, Incorporated, and the Bank’s data processing service center.

(2) Securities: (Continued)

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluations. Consideration is given to (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and (3) the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.

At December 31, 2006, the Company has 156 securities with unrealized losses. With the exception of the Company’s corporate bond portfolio, Management believes these unrealized losses relate to changes in interest rates and not credit quality. Management also believes the Company has the ability to hold these securities until maturity, or for the foreseeable future and therefore no declines are deemed to be other than temporary.

At December 31, 2006, the Company’s corporate bond portfolio is no longer investment quality. The Company’s corporate bond portfolio consist of $2 million of General Motors Acceptance Corporation (GMAC) bonds maturing in August 2007, and $3 million of Ford Motor Acceptance Corporation bonds (FMAC) with $1 million maturities in January 2007, October 2008 and October 2009. At December 31, 2006, these bonds have a combined unrealized loss of approximately $105,000, compared to an unrealized loss of $592,000 at December 31, 2005. The unrealized loss associated with these bonds is largely the result of a decline in the credit ratings of the parent companies of both GMAC (GM) and FMAC (Ford). The Company reviews the statements of condition, operations, and cash flows of GMAC, FMAC, and their parent companies on a consolidated basis each quarter to ascertain that the companies have an adequate level of liquidity to meet both current and near-term obligations. At this time, management believes that both entities have adequate levels of liquidity to meet its obligations through the period that meets or exceeds the maturity of the Company’s bonds held in its portfolio. Furthermore, the recent sale of 51% of GMAC to an outside investor group should enhance the future viability of GMAC. At this time, the Company has not taken an impairment charge on its corporate bond portfolio. Management will continue to monitor quarterly financial statements and Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) filings in an effort to monitor the ability of GMAC, FMAC and their parent companies to meet their near-term liquidity needs.

During 2006, the Company sold investments securities classified as available-for-sale for proceeds of $15.1 million resulting in gross gains of $90,000 and gross losses of $57,000. During 2005, the Company sold investment securities classified as available-for-sale for proceeds of $10.6 million resulting in gross gains of $73,000 and gross losses of $38,000. Also during 2005, the Company sold restricted investment securities for proceeds of $360,000 resulting in gross gains of $345,000 in 2005 and $18,000 in 2006, respectively. The Company sold investment securities classified as available-for-sale for proceeds of $39.5 million resulting in gross gains of $366,000 and gross losses of $60,000 during 2004.

(9) Financial Instruments:

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 and to reduce its own exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit, and financial guarantees. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. The contract or notional amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Company has in particular classes of financial instruments.

The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit and financial guarantees written is represented by the contractual notional amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making these commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.

 

     December 31,
     2006    2005

Commitments to extend credit

   $ 41,993    24,208

Standby letters of credit

     4,459    3,588

Unused commercial lines of credit

     8,990    13,576

Unused home equity lines of credit

     31,200    10,468

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counter-party. Collateral held varies but may include property, plant, and equipment and income-producing commercial properties.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements, including commercial paper, bond financing, and similar transactions. Most guarantees extend from one to two years. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers.

The fair value of standby letters of credit is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements, the likelihood of the counter parties drawing on such financial instruments and the present creditworthiness of such counter parties. Such commitments have been made on terms which are competitive in the markets in which the Company operates, thus, the fair value of standby letters of credit equals the carrying value for the purposes of this disclosure. The maximum potential amount of future payments that the Company could be required to make under the guarantees totaled $4,459,000 at December 31, 2006.

(10) Subordinated Debentures:

On September 25, 2003, the Company formed HopFed Capital Trust I (the Trust). The Trust is a statutory trust formed under the laws of the state of Delaware. In September 2003, the Trust issued variable rate capital securities with an aggregate liquidation amount of $10,000,000 ($1,000 per preferred security) to a third-party investor. The Company then issued floating rate junior subordinated debentures aggregating $10,310,000 to the Trust. The junior subordinated debentures are the sole assets of the Trust. The junior subordinated debentures and the capital securities pay interest and dividends, respectively, on a quarterly basis. The variable interest rate is the three-month LIBOR plus 3.10% adjusted quarterly (8.47% for the quarter ending December 31, 2006). These junior subordinated debentures mature in 2033, at which time the capital securities must be redeemed. The junior subordinated debentures and capital securities can be redeemed contemporaneously, in whole or in part, beginning October 8, 2008 at a redemption price of $1,000 per capital security.

(10) Subordinated Debentures: (Continued)

The Company has provided a full-irrevocable and unconditional guarantee on a subordinated basis of the obligations of the Trust under the capital securities in the event of the occurrence of an event of default, as defined in such guarantee. Debt issuance cost and underwriting fees of $190,000 were capitalized related to the offering and are being amortized to the first call date of the junior subordinated debentures.

 

(11) Concentrations of Credit Risk:

Most of the Bank’s business activity is with customers located within the western part of the Commonwealth of Kentucky and middle and western Tennessee. One-to-four family residential and non residential real estate collateralize the majority of the loans. The Bank requires collateral for the majority of loans.

The distribution of commitments to extend credit approximates the distribution of loans outstanding. The contractual amounts of credit-related financial instruments such as commitments to extend credit and commercial letters of credit represent the amounts of potential accounting loss should the contract be fully drawn upon, the customer default, and the value of any existing collateral become worthless.

Cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions exceeded the insurance coverage as of December 31, 2006 and 2005. The excess balance of such items as of December 31, 2006 and 2005 was $11.7 million and $7.2 million, respectively.

 

(12) Employee Benefit Plans:

Stock Option Plan

On February 24, 1999, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted the HopFed Bancorp, Inc. 1999 Stock Option Plan (Option Plan), which was subsequently approved at the 1999 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Under the Option Plan, the Option Committee has discretionary authority to grant stock options and stock appreciation rights to such employees, directors and advisory directors, as the committee shall designate. The Option Plan reserved 403,360 shares of common stock for issuance upon the exercise of options or stock appreciation rights.

The Company will receive the exercise price for shares of common stock issued to Option Plan participants upon the exercise of their option, and will receive no monetary consideration upon the exercise of stock appreciation rights. The Board of Directors granted options to purchase 403,360 shares of common stock under the Option Plan at an exercise price of $20.75 per share, which was the fair market value on the date of the grant. As a result of the special dividend of $4.00 per share paid in December, 1999, and in accordance with plan provisions, the number of options and the exercise price has been adjusted to 480,475 and $17.42 respectively.

The weighted average fair value of options granted during December 31, 2004 was $4.36 per share. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following weighted average assumptions: volatility of 15%, a risk free interest rate of 4.25%, expected dividend yield of 2.77% and an expected life of nine and one half years for options granted during the year ended December 31, 2004.

Stock options vest and become exercisable annually over a four-year period from the date of the grant.

In addition, the Company has chosen to provide all eligible employees an additional 4% of compensation without regards to the amount of the employee contribution. Expense related to Company contributions amounted to $334,000, $270,000 and $229,000 in 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Deferred Compensation Plan

During the third quarter of 2002, the Company purchased assets and assumed the liabilities relating to a nonqualified deferred compensation plan for certain employees of the Fulton division. The Company owns single premium life insurance policies on the life of each participant and is the beneficiary of the policy value. When a participant retires, the benefits accrued for each participant will be distributed to the participant in equal installments for 15 years. The expense recognized by the Company for 2006, 2005, and 2004 amounted to $21,000, $27,000, and $19,000, respectively. The Deferred Compensation Plan also provides the participant with life insurance coverage, which is a percentage of the net death proceeds for the policy, if any, applicable to the participant.

(13) Income Taxes: (Continued)

The Small Business Protection Act of 1996, among other things, repealed the tax bad debt reserve method for thrifts effective for taxable years beginning after December 31, 1995. Thrifts such as the Bank may now only use the same tax bad debt reserve method that is allowed for commercial banks. A thrift with assets greater than $500 million can no longer use the reserve method and may only deduct loan losses as they actually arise (i.e., the specific charge-off method).

The portion of a thrift’s tax bad debt reserve that is not recaptured (generally pre-1988 bad debt reserves) under the 1996 law is only subject to recapture at a later date under certain circumstances. These include stock repurchase redemptions by the thrift or if the thrift converts to a type of institution (such as a credit union) that is not considered a bank for tax purposes. However, no further recapture would be required if the thrift converted to a commercial bank charter or was acquired by a bank. The Bank does not anticipate engaging in any transactions at this time that would require the recapture of its remaining tax bad debt reserves. Therefore, retained earnings at December 31, 2006 and 2005 includes approximately $4,027,000 which represents such bad debt deductions for which no deferred income taxes have been provided.

 

(14) Commitments and Contingencies:

In the ordinary course of business, the Bank has various outstanding commitments and contingent liabilities that are not reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

The Bank had open loan commitments at December 31, 2006 and 2005 of approximately $41,993,000 and $24,208,000, respectively. Of these amounts, approximately $215,000 and $531,000 as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, were for fixed rate loans. The interest rates for the fixed rate loan commitments were 6.25% for December 31, 2006 and ranged from 6.00% to 6.375% for December 31, 2005. At December 31, 2006, the Bank has committed to sell fixed rate loans totaling $215,000. In the event that the Bank is unable to fulfill its commitment to sell these loans, the Bank’s liability to its investor was not material to the consolidated financial statements of the Company. Unused lines of credit were approximately $40,190,000 and $24,044,000 as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

The Company and the Bank have agreed to enter into employment agreements with certain officers, which provide certain benefits in the event of their termination following a change in control of the Company or the Bank. The employment agreements provide for an initial term of three years. On each anniversary of the commencement date of the employment agreements, the term of each agreement may be extended for an additional year at the discretion of the Board. In the event of a change in control of the Company or the Bank, as defined in the agreement, the officers shall be paid an amount equal to two times the officer’s base salary as defined in the employment agreement.

(14) Commitments and Contingencies: (Continued)

The Company and the Bank have entered into commitments to rent facilities and lease operating equipment that are non-cancelable. At December 31, 2006, future minimal lease and rental commitments were as follows:

2010

     36,000

2011

     28,000
      
   $ 289,000
      

The Company incurred rental expenses of approximately $16,000, $28,000 and $77,000 for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively.

The Company and the Bank have entered into non-cancelable purchase obligations and fixed asset purchases. In December 2005, the Company entered into an agreement to construct two 4,000 square foot retail banks in Clarksville, Tennessee. The anticipated cost to complete both buildings is $905,000 with an anticipated completion date of the second quarter of 2007.

In December 2006, the Company entered into an agreement to renovate a recently purchased 10,000 square foot retail bank building in Clarksville, Tennessee. The estimated cost of the renovation is $472,522 with an estimated completion date of the third quarter of 2007.

In 2006, the Company entered into an agreement to remodel a retail bank location in Murray, Kentucky. At December 31, 2006, the Company anticipates that the cost to complete the renovation is $69,000, all of which will be remitted during 2007.

In the normal course of business, the Bank and Company have entered into operating contracts necessary to conduct the Company’s daily business. The most significant operating contract is for the Bank’s data processing services. The monthly cost associated with this contract is variable based on the number of accounts and usage but averages approximately $150,000 per month. In December 2005, the Company renewed this contract for five years. The contract expires in 2011.

In addition, the Bank is a defendant in legal proceedings arising in connection with its business. It is the best judgment of management that neither the financial position nor results of operations of the Bank will be materially affected by the final outcome of these legal proceedings.

(15) Regulatory Matters:

The Company is a unitary thrift holding company and, as such, is subject to regulation, examination and supervision by the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS).

The Bank is also subject to various regulatory requirements administered by the OTS. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s and the Bank’s financial statements.

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 classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of tangible and core capital (as defined in the regulations) to adjusted total assets (as defined), and of total capital (as defined) and Tier 1 to risk weighted assets (as defined). Management believes, as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, that the Bank meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.

The most recent notification from the OTS categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized the Bank must maintain minimum total, tangible and core capital ratios as set forth in the table below. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the institution’s category.

(16) Stockholders’ Equity:

The Company’s sources of income and funds for dividends to its stockholders are earnings on its investments and dividends from the Bank. The Bank’s primary regulator, the OTS, has regulations that impose certain restrictions on payment of dividends to the Company. Current regulations of the OTS allow the Bank (based upon its current capital level and supervisory status assigned by the OTS) to pay a dividend of up to 100% of net income to date during the calendar year plus the retained income for the preceding two years.

The Bank must provide the OTS with 30 days prior notice to the payment of the dividend. Any capital distribution in excess of this amount would require supervisory approval. Capital distributions are further restricted should the Bank’s capital level fall below the fully phased-in capital requirements of the OTS. In no case will the Bank be allowed to make capital distributions reducing equity below the required balance of the liquidation account. For the years ended December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, the Bank paid a $3,000,000 per year dividend to the Corporation. The Bank paid a $2,000,000 dividend to the Corporation during the year ended December 31, 2004. For the year ended December 31, 2006, the Bank could have paid the Corporation an additional dividend of approximately $5.7 million without OTS supervisory approval.

OTS regulations also place restrictions after the conversion on the Company with respect to repurchases of its common stock. With prior notice to the OTS, the Company is allowed to repurchase its outstanding shares. In August 2006, the Company announced that is has replaced a previously announced stock buyback plan with a new plan to purchase up to 125,000 shares of common stock over the next two years. Under the current plan, the Company has purchased 33,500 shares of common stock at an average price of $16.37 per share. As of December 31, 2006, a total of 442,409 shares had been repurchased from all active and inactive stock repurchase plans at an average price of $12.22 per share.

(22) Business Combination: (Continued)

The Bank paid a deposit premium for the four offices of $6,541,000, including intangibles of $4,220,000 which are deductible for tax purposes. The amount allocated to the core deposit intangible was determined by a valuation conducted by an independent third party and is being amortized over the estimated useful life of nine years using the sum of the year’s digit method.

An independent third party has completed a valuation analysis of the estimated fair market value of the acquired loan portfolio. This analysis was based on the portfolio balances, yields, and market rates on June 29, 2006. As a result, the Bank will accrete approximately $210,000 in loan yield differential over the estimated average life of the individual portions of the purchased loan portfolios on an accelerated basis. For the year ending December 31, 2006, the Company recognized additional income of approximately $34,000 as a result of the amortization of the loan yield differential.

Management has completed an analysis of the credit quality of the purchased loan portfolio. As a result of this analysis, management has reduced the market value of the purchased loan portfolio by $185,000 for estimated loan losses not specifically identified by current classification.

The following table presents pro forma information as if the acquisition had occurred at the beginning of 2006. The pro forma includes adjustment for interest income on loans, amortization of intangibles arising from the transaction, depreciation expense on property acquired, interest expense on deposits assumed, and related income tax affects. The pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations as they would have been had the transaction been affected on the assumed dates
