BofI HOLDING, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2005 AND 2004
(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)
(Unaudited)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of BofI Holding, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Bank of Internet USA (the “Bank” and collectively with BofI Holding, the “Company”). All significant intercompany balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financials statements, presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), are unaudited and reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair statement of financial condition and results of operations for the interim periods. All adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. Results for the six months ended December 31, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the year as a whole. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes for the year ended June 30, 2005 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior-period financial statements to conform to the current-period presentation.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Allowance for Loan Losses — The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level estimated to provide for probable losses in the loan portfolio. Management determines the adequacy of the allowance based on reviews of individual loans and pools of loans, recent loss experience, current economic conditions, the risk characteristics of the various categories of loans and other pertinent factors. This evaluation is inherently subjective and requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. The allowance is increased by the provision for loan losses, which is charged against current period operating results and recoveries of loans previously charged-off. The allowance is decreased by the amount of charge-offs of loans deemed uncollectible.

Under the allowance for loan loss policy, impairment calculations are determined based on general portfolio data for general reserves and loan level data for specific reserves. Specific loans are evaluated for impairment and are classified as nonperforming or in foreclosure when they are 90 days or more delinquent. A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Bank will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral if repayment of the loan is expected primarily from the sale of collateral.

General loan loss reserves are calculated by grouping each loan by collateral type and by grouping the loan-to-value ratios of each loan within the collateral type. An estimated allowance rate for each loan-to-value group within each type of loan is multiplied by the total principal amount in the group to calculate the required general reserve attributable to that group. Management uses an allowance rate that provides a larger loss allowance for loans with greater loan-to-value ratios. Specific reserves are calculated when an internal asset review of a loan identifies a significant adverse change in the financial position of the borrower or the value of the collateral. The specific reserve is based on discounted cash flows, observable market prices or the estimated value of underlying collateral.
 
Derivatives and Hedging Activities — Derivative contracts, such as an interest rate cap, are recorded on the balance sheet, either as an asset or a liability or as a component of the hedged item, at their fair value. On the date that we enter into a derivative contract, we designate the derivative as (1) a hedge of (a) a forecasted transaction or (b) the variability of cash flows that are to be received or paid in connection with a recognized asset or liability (a “cash flow” hedge); (2) a hedge of (a) the exposure to changes in the fair value of a recognized asset or liability or (b) an unrealized firm commitment; or (3) an instrument that is held for trading or non-hedging purposes (a “trading” or “non-hedging” instrument). Changes in the fair value of derivative trading and non-hedging instruments are reported in current-period earnings. We formally document all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as our risk management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions.

The fair value of derivative instruments is based on quoted market prices received from independent sources. Active markets may not exist for our derivative instruments. Consequently, the independent sources we use to obtain quoted market prices may be using estimating techniques, such as discounted cash flow analysis and comparison to similar instruments to determine the fair value of our derivative instruments. Estimates developed by these independent sources are subjective and require the judgment of the independent sources regarding significant matters such as the amount, timing and probabilities of potential future cash flows. Since these estimates are made as of a specific point in time, they are susceptible to material change over time.

Stock-Based Compensation— Prior to July 1, 2005, the Company accounts for its stock-based employee compensation under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in the income statements for periods ending June 30, 2005, or before. Effective July 1, 2005, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123(R), Share-based Payment, and has included the stock-based employee compensation expense in its income statement for the three months and six months ended December 31, 2005. Refer to Note 6, Stock Options, Stock Grant and Stock Purchase Plans below, for additional disclosures.

New Accounting Pronouncements— During the quarter ended December 31, 2005, the FASB issued FSP FAS 115-1, The Meaning of Other Than Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments. FSP FAS 115-1 clarifies that an investor in debt or equity securities should recognize an impairment loss no later than when the impairment is deemed other than temporary, even if a decision to sell has not been made. FSP FAS 115-1 is effective for other-than-temporary impairment analyses conducted in periods beginning after December 15, 2005. The adoption of FSP FAS 115-1 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

1999 Stock Option Plan— In July 1999, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the 1999 Stock Option Plan (the “1999 Plan”). In August 2001, the Company’s shareholders approved an amendment to the 1999 Plan such that 15% of the outstanding shares of the Company would always be available for grants under the 1999 Plan (1,316,432 shares at June 30, 2005). The 1999 Plan is designed to encourage selected employees and directors to improve operations and increase profits, to accept or continue employment or association with the Company through participation in the growth in the value of the common stock. The 1999 Plan provisions require that option exercise prices be not less than fair market value per share of common stock on the option grant date for incentive and nonqualified options. The options issued under the 1999 Plan generally vest in four years. Option expiration dates are established by the plan administrator but may not be later than 10 years after the date of the grant.

Prior to March 15, 2005, when the Company’s common stock began trading publicly, the Company’s stock options were valued without consideration of a volatility factor. All of the options granted under the 1999 Plan were granted prior to March 15, 2005. The weighted-average fair value at grant date for options granted during the six months ended December 31, 2004 and the years ended June 30, 2005, 2004 and 2003 were $2.37, $2.37, $2.52,and $1.83 per share, respectively.

The following assumptions were used to determined the weighted-average grant-date fair values of options granted:

The aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding and options exercisable under the 1999 Plan at December 31, 2005 were $1,839 and $1,831, respectively. The Company recorded stock option compensation expense related to the 1999 Plan of $36 and $74 for the three months and the six months ended December 31, 2005, respectively.

2004 Stock Incentive Plan—In October 2004, the Company’s Board of Directors and the stockholders approved the 2004 Stock Incentive Plan (“2004 Plan”), which provides for the grant of stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights and dividend equivalent rights to employees, directors and consultants. The maximum number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the 2004 Plan, plus the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the 1999 Plan will be equal to 14.8% of the Company’s outstanding common stock at any time. However, the number of shares available for issuance as restricted stock grants may not exceed 5% of the Company’s outstanding common stock (subject to the overall maximum of 14.8% of the outstanding shares of common stock). Each share of restricted stock that is issued under the 2004 Plan and vests will be deemed to be the issuance of three shares for purposes of calculating the overall maximum number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the 2004 Plan but not for purposes of calculating the above 5% limit applicable to the issuance of restricted stock.

Stock Options Granted—In July 2005, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the first grant of stock options under the 2004 Plan. The non-qualified stock options were issued with grant-day exercise prices equal to market prices and vesting periods of three years for directors and four years for employees with no vesting until after 12 months. The following assumptions were used to determine the weighted-average grant-date fair values of options granted:

General

Our company, BofI Holding, Inc., is the holding company for Bank of Internet USA, a consumer-focused, nationwide savings bank operating primarily over the Internet. We offer loans and deposits in all 50 states to our customers directly through our websites, including www.BankofInternet.com, www.BofI.com, www.SeniorBofI.com and www.Apartmentbank.com. We are a unitary savings and loan holding company and, along with Bank of Internet USA, are subject to primary federal regulation by the Office of Thrift Supervision.

Using online applications on our websites, our customers apply for deposit products, including time deposits, interest-bearing demand accounts (including interest-bearing checking accounts) and savings accounts (including money market savings accounts). We specialize in originating and purchasing small- to medium-size multifamily mortgage loans. We manage our cash and cash equivalents based upon our need for liquidity, and we seek to minimize the assets we hold as cash and cash equivalents by investing our excess liquidity in higher yielding assets such as loans or securities.


 Critical Accounting Policies

Our consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto, have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make a number of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions based upon historical experience and various factors and circumstances. We believe that our estimates and assumptions are reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual results may differ significantly from these estimates and assumptions that could have a material effect on the carrying value of assets and liabilities at the balance sheet dates and our results of operations for the reporting periods.

Our significant accounting policies and practices are described in greater detail in Note 1 to our June 30, 2005 audited consolidated financial statements and under the caption “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Policies” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

OVERVIEW

During the quarter ended December 31, 2005, we earned $750,000, or $0.08 per diluted share compared to $514,000, or $0.08 per diluted share for the three months ended December 31, 2004. Our quarterly net income increased 45.9% and our earnings per share were unchanged in the 2005 quarter compared to 2004. Diluted earnings per share did not increase due to an increase of 3,052,174 shares, or a 36.7% increase in the number of shares outstanding from our initial public offering in March 2005, which added $31.3 million in capital for future growth. Other key comparisons between our operating results for the quarter ended December 2005 compared to December 2004 are:
 
 
º
net interest income increased $259,000 in 2005 due to a 43.2% increase in average interest earning assets, partially offset by a 42 basis point decrease in our net interest margin;
 
 
º
non interest income increased $139,000 due to higher mortgage loan prepayment penalty income and higher mortgage banking fee income;
 
17

 
 
º
non-interest expense for the 2005 quarter included an additional $105,000 in compensation expense for stock options and stock grants, primarily due to a recent change in the stock option accounting rules;

 
º
our efficiency ratio was 50.5% in the 2005 quarter compared to 58.3% for 2004;

 
º
our annualized return on average equity was 4.14 % for 2005, down from 6.30% for 2004, primarily due to the additional capital received in March 2005 from our initial public offering.
 
For the six months ended December 31, 2005, net income increased $0.4 million to $1.6 million or $0.16 per diluted share, compared to $1.2 million, or $0.19 per diluted share for the six months ended December 31, 2004. The 35.8% increase in
net income was primarily the result of a 46.5% increase in average interest earning assets, partially offset by a 43 basis point decrease in our net interest margin, which increased net interest income $638,000. Our annualized return on average equity was 4.46 % for the six months ended December 31, 2005, down from 7.52% for 2004. The declines in the diluted earnings per share and the annualized return on equity were the result of the 3,052,174 additional shares outstanding as a result of our initial public offering in March 2005.

Our earnings rely on our net interest income and during the last 18 months our net interest income has been negatively impacted by the flattening yield curve. Our net interest margin declined to 1.49% and to 1.55% for the three months and the six months ended December 31, 2005 from 1.91% and 1.98% for the three months and the six months ended December 31, 2004. The flattening yield curve has caused our deposit rates and interest expense to increase without a proportional increase in our interest earned on our loan originations and purchases. Until the trends toward a flattening or inverting yield curve reverse, our net interest margin will continue to decrease and our ability to grow the assets and the liabilities of the Bank could be adversely affected.
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - Comparison of Three Months and Six Months Ended December 31, 2005 and 2004

Net income for the three months ended December 31, 2005 increased $236,000 to $750,000 or $0.08 per diluted share, compared to $514,000, or $0.08 per diluted share for the three months ended December 31, 2004. Net income before income tax for the three months ended December 31, 2005 increase by approximately $400,000 to $1.3 million compared to $0.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2004. The increase resulted primarily from a $259,000 increase in net interest income and a $139,000 increase in non-interest income.

Net income for the six months ended December 31, 2005 increased $0.4 million to $1.6 million or $0.16 per diluted share, compared to $1.2 million, or $0.19 per diluted share for the six months ended December 31, 2004. Net income before income tax for the six months ended December 31, 2005 increase by $0.7 million to $2.7 million compared to $2.0 million for the six months ended December 31, 2004. The increase resulted primarily from a $638,000 increase in net interest income and a $380,000 increase in non-interest income, partially offset by an increase in non-interest expense of $339,000.
 
Net Interest Income

Net interest income for the quarter ended December 31, 2005 totaled $2.5 million, a 13.6% increase over net interest income of $2.2 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2004. Net interest income for the six months ended December 31, 2005 increased 14.0% to $4.9 million, up from $4.3 million for the six months ended December 31, 2004.

Total interest and dividend income during the quarter ended December 31, 2005 increased 48.1% to $8.0 million, compared with $5.4 million during the quarter ended December 31, 2004. For the six months, total interest and dividend income increased 49.0% to $15.2 million, compared with $10.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2004. The increases in interest and dividend income for the quarter and for the six months are attributable to growth in average earning assets, primarily average loans held for investment and average investment securities (primarily mortgage-back securities). Comparing average balances for the quarters, December 2005 compared to 2004, loans held for investment and investment securities grew 43.1% and 66.4%, respectively. Comparing average balances for the six months ended December 31, 2005 to 2004, loans held for investment and investment securities grew 40.8% and 139.4%, respectively. Higher rates on new loans and rate adjustments in the loan portfolio caused the loan portfolio yield for the 2005 quarter to increase 9 basis points and to increase 3 basis points for the six months of 2005 compared with the same period in 2004, contributing to the increase in interest income. The net growth in average earning assets for the three month and six month periods was funded largely by increases in time deposits and advances from the FHLB, which account for the majority of the increases in interest expense. Total interest expense during the quarter ended December 31, 2005 increased 75% to $5.6 million, compared with $3.2 million during the quarter ended December 31, 2004. For the six months, interest expense increased 74.3% to $10.3 million, compared with $5.9 million for the six months ended December 31, 2004. Comparing average balances for the quarter ended December 2005 to 2004, time deposits and advances from the FHLB grew 66.6% and 66.1%, respectively. Comparing average balances for the six months ended December 31, 2005 to 2004, time deposits and advances from the FHLB grew 75.8% and 64.5%, respectively. Higher rates paid on new time deposits caused the time deposit rate for the 2005 quarter to increase 65 basis points and to increase 53 basis points for the six months of 2005 compared with same period in 2004. Similarly, higher rates paid on new FHLB advances caused the rate for the 2005 quarter to increase 35 basis points and to increase 23 basis points for the six months of 2005 compared with same period in 2004. The combined rate and rate / volume variance (primarily from increases in time deposits and FHLB advance rates) accounted for 37.3% and 30.7% of the total increase in interest expense for the quarter and for the six month comparisons, respectively.

Net interest margin, defined as net interest income divided by average earning assets, decreased by 42 basis points to 1.49% for the quarter ended December 31, 2005, compared with 1.91% for the quarter ended December 31, 2004. Similarly, the net interest margin decreased by 43 basis points to 1.55% for the six months ended December 31, 2005, compared with 1.98% for the six months ended December 31, 2004. The net interest margin declined for the quarter and for the six months as a result of the flattening of the yield curve and the addition of lower-rate mortgage-backed securities. During the first quarter of fiscal 2005, we increased our investment in mortgage-backed securities, because we believed they offered better relative credit risk compared to the pricing levels of mortgage whole loans. The mortgage-backed securities we purchased provide a guarantee from a government sponsored entity like FNMA, while single-family whole loan originations and purchases do not have a credit guarantee. Generally, the credit risk premiums on mortgage whole loans (the difference between the interest rate earned on a whole loan and the rate earned on a long-term U.S. Treasury) have decreased due to the strong housing market and the lower mortgage default levels over the last few years. As result, high quality mortgage loan rates remain relatively low, contributing to our decrease in net interest margin.

Our net interest margin has also been negatively influenced by the flattening of the yield curve. The interest rates we pay on our deposits generally move with short term rates and the interest yield on our loans generally moves with long-term rates. Increases in the Fed Funds rates over the past 18 months have caused short-term rates to rise, without corresponding increases in long-term rates causing the yield curve to flatten. Our cost of funds (primarily deposit interest) for the quarter and for the six-month period ended December 31, 2005, increased 82 basis points and 71 basis points, respectively. Our yield on earning assets (primarily loan interest) for the quarter and for the six-month period ended December 31, 2005, increased only 21basis points and 9 basis points, respectively. We believe that the yield curve will become steeper and credit risk premiums will increase in the future, although there can be no assurances that this will occur. Until this happens, we may not be able to grow the size of our earning assets at the same rate we have experienced over the past four years and our net interest margin may continue to decline and remain below historic levels.

Analysis of Changes in Net Interest Income

Changes in net interest income are a function of changes in rates and volumes of both interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The following table presents information regarding changes in interest income and interest expense for the periods indicated. The total change for each category of interest earning asset and interest-bearing liability is segmented into the change attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior rate), the change attributable to variations in interest rates (changes in rates multiplied by old volume) and the change attributable to changes in rate/volume (change in rate multiplied by the change in volume):

Provision for Loan Losses
 
The provision for loan losses amounted to $135,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2005, compared to $160,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2004. For the six months ended December 31, 2005, loan loss provisions amounted to $145,000, compared to $175,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2005. Provisions for loan losses are charged to income to bring the allowance for credit losses to a level deemed appropriate by management based on the factors discussed under the “Allowance for Loan Losses” section of this report.

Non-interest income for the quarter ended December 31, 2005 increased $139,000, or 64% to $355,000 compared to $216,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2004. For the six months ended December 31, 2005, non-interest income increased 98.7% to $765,000 compared to $385,000 for the period in 2004. Increases in prepayment penalty fee income and mortgage banking income are the primary reasons for the increase in non-interest income. Higher fee income from mortgage loan prepayments is the result of more multifamily loans repaying earlier in the loan life. This increase is generally due to the increase in the size of the multifamily loan portfolio, however, there are many factors influencing borrowers’ to payoff loans early, making prepayment penalty fee income somewhat unpredictable. During the first quarter of this fiscal year, we implemented a new correspondent program, which added $40,000 in fee income for the quarter and $145,000 in fee income for the six months ended December 31, 2005. This new correspondent program, plus an increase in single-family loan sales increased mortgage banking fee income in 2005 compared to 2004.

(1)          Represents non-interest expense divided by the aggregate of net interest income before provision for loan losses and non-interest income.

Non-interest expense, which is comprised primarily of compensation, data processing and internet expenses, occupancy and other operating expenses, was $1.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2005 and $1.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2004. Non-interest expense increased 13.3% to $2.9 million for the six months ended 2005 compared to $2.5 million for the six months ended 2004.
 
Compensation decreased $117,000 to $648,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2005, compared to $765,000 for the same quarter last year. For the six months ended in 2005, compensation expense was $1.4 million both in 2005 and 2004. Salaries and benefits included $200,000 and $280,000 of one-time bonus accruals for executives for the three months and the six months ended December 31, 2004, respectively. Without the one-time bonus amounts in 2004, salaries and employee benefits for the six months ended December 31, 2005, would have increased approximately 9.0% for salary increases and staff additions. Effective July 1, 2005, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123(R), Share-based Payment, and beginning the first quarter of this fiscal year we included stock-based employee compensation expense of $105,000 and $195,000 in our income statements for the quarter and the six months ended December 31, 2005, respectively.
 
Professional services which includes accounting and legal fees, increased $66,000 and $93,000 for quarter and the six months ended December 31, 2005, respectively. The increases in professional services were primarily due to increased compliance costs associated with public company filings, audits and other routine work, not required in 2004, before we were a public entity.
 
Occupancy and equipment expense increased in 2005 compared to 2004 due to the relocation of the corporate office in June 2005 to a larger office with increased rent.
 
Other general and administrative expenses include advertising and promotion, telephone, postage, supplies, insurance and other miscellaneous deposit and loan related expenses. Other general and administrative expenses increased $26,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2005 compared to 2004. In December 2004, we recorded a one-time charge of $59,000 for unrecoverable costs associated with the termination of an agreement associated with our initial public offering. Without that charge, other general and administrative charges would have increased $85,000 and $209,000 for the quarter and for the six-months ended in 2005 compared to 2004. The primary reasons for these increases in other general and administrative expenses relate to increased levels of corporate insurance, franchise tax and, to a lesser extent, increases related to advertising and higher levels of deposit and loan customers.

Our efficiency ratio was 50.5% for the three months ended December 31, 2005, compared to 58.3% for the corresponding period in 2004. Our non-interest expense as a percent of average assets (G &A ratio) was 0.85% for the three months ended December 31, 2005, compared to 1.20% for the corresponding period in 2004. Without the new requirement to expense stock options, our efficiency ratios would have improved to 46.8% and 48.1% for the three months and the six months ended December 31, 2005 and our G&A ratios would have improved to 0.80% and 0.85% for the three months and the six months ended December 31, 2005, when compared to 2004 ratios.
 
Provision for Income Taxes
 
Our effective income tax rates (income tax provision divided by net income before income tax) for the three months ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, were 40.33% and 39.39%, respectively. Our effective income tax rates for the six months ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, were 40.00% and 39.77%, respectively. The variations in our effective tax rate have been primarily related to our investment in bank-owned life insurance (BOLI), which generates non-taxable income.
 
FINANCIAL CONDITION

Balance Sheet Analysis

Our total assets increased $72.0 million, or 11.8%, to $681.5 million, as of December 31, 2005, up from $609.5 million at June 30, 2005. The increase in total assets was primarily due to the purchase and origination of new loans, which contributed to the $58.3 million net increase in loans held for investment. The purchase of mortgage-backed securities contributed to a net increase in mortgage-backed securities available for sale of $16.6 million. The asset growth was funded by a net increase in deposits totalling $38.3 million and a net increase in FHLB advances of $33.0 million.
 
During the six months ended December 31, 2005, our asset and liability mix changed primarily two ways. First, time deposits increased to 81.6% of total deposits, up from 74.6% at June 30, 2005. We expect this trend to continue as the rise in short-term rates has increased bank competition for time deposits making time deposit rates more attractive to many consumers. Second, we increased our mortgage-backed securities portfolio to 12.2% of total assets, up from 11.0% at June 30, 2005. During the six months we purchased $115.1 million in whole loans and $33.1 million in mortgage-backed securities. Our decision to invest in either whole loans or mortgage-backed securities depends on a number of factors which often change from day to day including the number of opportunities to originate and purchase loan pools, the credit risk of certain loan pools compared to mortgage-backed securities, changing mortgage repayment rates and the flattening in the yield curve. Furthermore, until the trends toward a flattening or inverting yield curve reverse, our ability to obtain loans and mortgage-backed securities that meet our yield requirements will be adversely affected.
 
Loans
 
Net loans held for investment increased $58.3 million, or 12.0% to $545.2 million at December 31, 2005 from $486.9 million at June 30, 2005. The growth in loans during the six months was primarily due to purchases of single-family and multifamily loans, which, net of repayments, increased our single family portfolio by $17.9 million and our multifamily portfolio by $38.7 million at December 31, 2005. Total loan purchases and originations for the six months ended December 31, 2005 were $115.1 million and $4.5 million, respectively. Loan repayments were $60.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2005.

Nonperforming assets are comprised of nonaccrual loans, loans past due 90 days or more but not on nonaccrual, restructured loans and other real estate owned, net. There were no nonperforming assets on December 31, 2005.
 
Allowance for Loan Losses
 
We are committed to maintaining the allowance for loan losses at a level that is considered to be commensurate with estimated and known risks in the portfolio. Although the adequacy of the allowance is reviewed quarterly, our management performs an ongoing assessment of the risks inherent in the portfolio. While we believe that the allowance for loan losses is adequate at December 31, 2005, future additions to the allowance will be subject to continuing evaluation of estimated and known, as well as inherent, risks in the loan portfolio.
 
The assessment of the adequacy of our allowance for loan losses is based upon a number of quantitative and qualitative factors, including levels and trends of past due and nonaccrual loans, change in volume and mix of loans and collateral values. We did not have any nonperforming loans at December 31, 2005 or 2004. We believe that our history is limited and it is unlikely that every loan in our investment portfolio will continue to perform without exception so we provide general allowances based upon the overall volume of loans, the loan types and the estimated collateral values.
 
The provision for loan losses amounted to $135,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2005, compared to $160,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2004. For the six months ended December 31, 2005, the provision for loan losses amounted to $145,000 compared to $175,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2004. General reserves are a function of our portfolio loan balance. Generally, the larger the increase in our loans held for investment the higher loan loss provisions. The loss provisions for the 2004 periods were higher than those in the 2005 periods because the net loan portfolio balances increased more in 2004.

Investment Securities
 
Total mortgage-backed securities available-for-sale was $79.4 million as of December 31, 2005, compared with $62.8 million at June 30, 2005. During the six months ended December 31, 2005, we purchased $33.1 million in mortgage-backed securities and received principal repayments of approximately $15.7 million.

The Bank intends to hold its held-to-maturity securities until the amortized cost is realized. The unrealized losses are due primarily to interest rate fluctuations:

Deposits
 
Deposits increased a net $38.3 million, or 10.6%, to $399.4 million at December 31, 2005, from $361.1 million at June 30, 2005. Our deposit growth was comprised of increases in time deposit accounts of $56.8 million offset by a decline in checking, savings, and money market accounts of $18.5 million. Our growth in deposits was the result of increased promotion and competitive pricing on time deposits. Our money market savings decreased as a result of less competitive rate pricing resulting in customer transfers to our higher rate time deposits or withdrawals:

FHLB Advances
 
We regularly use FHLB advances to manage our interest rate risk and, to a lesser extent, manage our liquidity position. FHLB advances increased 19.2% to $205.6 million as of December 31, 2005, representing an increase of $33.1 million from June 30, 2005. FHLB advances with terms between two and four years were used to fund the purchase of single family and multifamily mortgages and to provide us with interest rate risk protection should rates rise. We also had outstanding short-term advances (less than 30 days) of $13.0 million and $23.0 million at December 31, 2005 and June 30, 2005, respectively. Typically, we use short-term advances to temporarily fund loan purchases and then repay the advances with customers’ deposits as they are received.
 
Stockholders’ Equity
 
Stockholders’ equity increased $0.3 million to $69.0 million at December 31, 2005 compared to $68.7 million at June 30, 2005. The increase was the result of our net income for the six months of $1.6 million and $0.2 million for paid in capital from stock option expense, partially offset by a $0.4 million unrealized loss from our available for sale securities, a $0.2 million reduction for dividends paid to holders of our convertible preferred stock and a $0.9 million reduction for our buyback of 107,000 shares of our common stock.

LIQUIDITY
 
During the six months ended December 31, 2005, we had net cash inflows from operating activities of $2.5 million compared to $645,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2004. Net cash inflows for the periods ended in 2005 and 2004 were primarily due to net income earned during the period and the timing of loan funding and loan sales in our originated for sale portfolio.

Net cash outflows from investing activities totaled $80.9 million and $112.9 million for the six months ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Net cash outflows from investing activities decreased $32.0 million for the six months ended December 31, 2005 due to higher loan principal repayments, which reduced cash outflow by $24.8 million, offset by net changes in the mix of activities to purchase securities, and to originate and purchase loans which required a net decrease in cash outflow of $6.0 million. Increases in proceeds from maturing investments reduced cash outflows by $3.5 million.

Our net cash provided by financing activities totaled $70.2 million and $105.9 million for the six months ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Net cash provided from financing activities decreased for the six months ended December 31, 2005 primarily due to $14.0 million decline in FHLB borrowings and a $11.8 million decline in new deposits. Also, we received $5.2 million in proceeds from the issuance of junior subordinated debentures and $3.7 million in proceeds from a revolving line term facility in December 2004.
 
As an additional source of funds, Bank of Internet USA can borrow up to 35.0% of its total assets from the FHLB. Borrowings are collateralized by the pledge of certain mortgage loans and investment securities to the FHLB. Based on the loans and securities pledged at December 31, 2005 we had total borrowing capacity of $238.5 million, of which $205.9 million was outstanding and $32.6 million was available. At December 31, 2005, we also had a $10.0 million unsecured federal funds purchase line with a major bank under which no borrowings were outstanding. In the past, we have used long-term borrowings to fund our loans and to minimize our interest rate risk.
27


We believe our liquidity sources to be stable and adequate for our anticipated needs and contingencies. However, during the last 18 months, interest income earned on loans and interest expense paid on deposits were influenced by the flattening of the yield curve. If the yield curve continues to flatten, we may have more difficulty maintaining our deposits. We believe we can adjust the interest rates we pay on our deposits to reduce deposit outflows should they occur. We can also increase our level of borrowings to address our future liquidity needs.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS AND COMMITMENTS
 
At December 31, 2005 we had commitments to fund loans of $1.8 million. Time deposits due within one year of December 31, 2005 totaled $218.8 million. We believe the large percentage of time deposits that mature within one year reflects customers’ hesitancy to invest their funds long term when they expect interest rates to rise. If these maturing deposits do not remain with us, we may be required to seek other sources of funds, including other time deposits and borrowings. Depending on market conditions, we may be required to pay higher rates on deposits and borrowings than we currently pay on time deposits maturing within one year. We believe, however, based on past experience, a significant portion of our time deposits will remain with us. We believe we have the ability to attract and retain deposits by adjusting interest rates offered.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND REQUIREMENTS
 
Bank of Internet USA is subject to various regulatory capital requirements set by the federal banking agencies. Failure by our bank to meet minimum capital requirements could result in certain mandatory and discretionary actions by regulators that could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, our bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of our bank’s assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Our bank’s capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation require our bank to maintain certain minimum capital amounts and ratios. The Office of Thrift Supervision requires our bank to maintain minimum ratios of tangible capital to tangible assets of 1.5%, core capital to tangible assets of 4.0% and total risk-based capital to risk-weighted assets of 8.0%. At December 31, 2005 our bank met all the capital adequacy requirements to which it was subject.

At December 31, 2005, our bank was “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be “well capitalized,” our bank must maintain minimum leverage, tier 1 risk-based and total risk-based capital ratios of at least 5.0%, 6.0% and 10.0%, respectively. No conditions or events have occurred since that date that management believes would materially adversely change the bank’s capital levels. To maintain its status as a “well capitalized” financial institution under applicable regulations and to support additional growth, we anticipate the need for additional capital. From time to time, we may need to raise additional capital to support our bank’s further growth and to maintain its “well capitalized” status.

Bank of Internet capital amounts, ratios and requirements at December 31, 2005 were as follows:

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We measure interest rate sensitivity as the difference between amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities that mature within a given period of time. The difference, or the interest rate sensitivity gap, provides an indication of the extent to which an institution’s interest rate spread will be affected by changes in interest rates. A gap is considered positive when the amount of interest rate sensitive assets exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities and negative when the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive assets. In a rising interest rate environment, an institution with a positive gap would be in a better position than an institution with a negative gap to invest in higher yielding assets or to have its asset yields adjusted upward, which would result in the yield on its assets to increase at a faster pace than the cost of its interest-bearing liabilities. During a period of falling interest rates, however, an institution with a positive gap would tend to have its assets mature at a faster rate than one with a negative gap, which would tend to reduce the growth in its net interest income. The following table sets forth the interest rate sensitivity of our assets and liabilities at December 31, 2005:

The table assumes that the principal balances for demand deposit and savings accounts will reprice in the first year.

Although “gap” analysis is a useful measurement device available to management in determining the existence of interest rate exposure, its static focus as of a particular date makes it necessary to utilize other techniques in measuring exposure to changes in interest rates. For example, gap analysis is limited in its ability to predict trends in future earnings and makes no assumptions about changes in prepayment tendencies, deposit or loan maturity preferences or repricing time lags that may occur in response to a change in the interest rate environment.

We attempt to measure the effect market interest rate changes will have on the net present value of assets and liabilities, which is defined as market value of equity. We use the measurement model developed and maintained by our regulators, the Office of Thrift Supervision. At September 30, 2005 (the most recent period for which data is available), we analyzed the market value of equity sensitivity to an immediate parallel and sustained shift in interest rates derived from the current treasury and LIBOR yield curves. For rising interest rate scenarios, the base market interest rate forecast was increased by 100, 200 and 300 basis points. For the falling interest rate scenarios, we used a 100 basis point decrease due to limitations inherent in the current rate environment. The following table indicates the sensitivity of market value of equity to the interest rate movement described above at September 30, 2005:

The board of directors of our bank establishes limits on the amount of interest rate risk we may assume, as estimated by the net present value model for each 100 basis point movement. As of December 31, 2005 and June 30, 2005, the board’s established minimum was 7.5%, meaning that the net present value after a theoretical instantaneous increase or decrease in interest rates must be greater than 7.5%. The 7.75 % in the table above for a 300 basis point upward movement of interest rates exceeded the board requirement by 25 basis points.

The computation of the prospective effects of hypothetical interest rate changes is based on numerous assumptions, including relative levels of interest rates, asset prepayments, runoffs in deposits and changes in repricing levels of deposits to general market rates, and should not be relied upon as indicative of actual results. Furthermore, these computations do not take into account any actions that we may undertake in response to future changes in interest rates.

Prior to February 2005, we had not entered into any derivative financial instruments such as futures, forwards, swaps and options. On February 15, 2005, we entered into an interest rate cap, with a notional amount of $5.0 million and a term of four years expiring in March 2009, to lower the interest payments on the junior subordinated debentures should the three-month LIBOR increase above 5.25%. We designated this derivative as a non-hedging instrument and we report changes in the fair value of this instrument as charges or credits to current-period earnings.

ITEM 3:   QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES OF MARKET RISKS
 
For quantitative and qualitative disclosures regarding market risks in our portfolio, see, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Consolidated Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.”
 
ITEM 4:   CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
The Company’s management, with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e). Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer along with our Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms.
 
There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation referred to above that occurred during the quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting.
 
The Company’s size dictates that it conducts business with a minimal number of financial and administrative employees, which inherently results in a lack of documented controls and segregation of duties within the Company. Management will continue to evaluate the employees involved and the controls procedures in place, the risks associated with such lack of segregation and whether the potential benefits of adding employees to clearly segregate duties justifies the expense associated with such added personnel. In addition, management is aware that many of the internal controls that are in place at the Company are undocumented controls. The Company is working to document these controls and take other steps required to be in compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes -Oxley Act of 2002 as of June 30, 2007, the Company’s deadline under current implementing rules and regulations.
 
The Company believes that a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the control are met and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.
