Note 1 – Basis of Presentation

BankFinancial Corporation, a Maryland corporation headquartered in Burr Ridge, Illinois (the “Company”), is the owner of all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of BankFinancial, F.S.B. (the “Bank”). As used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the words “Company,” “we” and “our” are intended to refer to the Company, the Bank, and the Bank’s subsidiaries, with respect to information presented for the six-month period ended June 30, 2010 and other periods referenced herein.

The interim unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial condition and results of operations for the periods presented. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The results of operations for the six-month period ended June 30, 2010, are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2010.

Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

To prepare financial statements in conformity with US GAAP, management makes estimates and assumptions based on available information. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the disclosures provided, and future results could differ. The allowance for loan losses, mortgage servicing rights, goodwill, stock-based compensation, impairment of securities and fair value of financial instruments are particularly subject to change.

Certain reclassifications have been made in the prior period’s financial statements to conform them to the current period’s presentation.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, and all amendments thereto, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Note 2 – Earnings per Share

Amounts reported in earnings per share reflect earnings available to common stockholders for the period divided by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, exclusive of unearned ESOP shares and unvested restricted stock shares. Stock options and restricted stock are regarded as potential common stock and are considered in the diluted earnings per share calculations to the extent that they would have a dilutive effect if converted to common stock computed using the “treasury stock” method.

Note 3 – Securities (continued)

Securities with unrealized losses at December 31, 2009 not recognized in income are as follows:

	Less than 12 Months				12 Months or More				Total
	Fair Value		Unrealized Loss		Fair Value		Unrealized Loss		Fair Value		Unrealized Loss
December 31, 2009
Collateralized mortgage obligations	$	1,358	$	13	$	—	$	—	$	1,358	$	13

There were no securities with unrealized losses at June 30, 2010.

Interest income on securities is recognized under the interest method, and includes amortization of purchase premium and discount. Gains and losses on sales of securities are based on the amortized cost of the securities sold.

The Company evaluates marketable investment securities with significant declines in fair value on a quarterly basis to determine whether they should be considered other-than-temporarily impaired under current accounting guidance, which generally provides that if a marketable security is in an unrealized loss position, whether due to general market conditions or industry or issuer-specific factors, the holder of the securities must assess whether the impairment is other-than-temporary.

At June 30, 2010, there were no securities with significant declines in fair value in the Company’s investment portfolio.

Note 4 – Loans Receivable

Loans originated are identified as either held for sale or held for investment and are accounted for accordingly upon their origination. Loans that are classified as held for sale are recorded at the lower of aggregate cost or estimated fair market value, as determined by outstanding commitments from investors. Net unrealized losses, if any, are recorded as a valuation allowance and charged to earnings. Mortgage loans held for sale are generally sold with servicing rights retained. The carrying value of mortgage loans sold is reduced by the fair value of the servicing rights. Gains and losses on sales of mortgage loans are based on the difference between the selling price and the carrying value of the related loan sold.

Premiums and discounts associated with loans purchased are amortized over the contractual term of the loan using the level-yield method.

Interest income is reported on the interest method and includes amortization of net deferred loan fees and costs over the contractual loan term, adjusted for prepayments. Interest income is discontinued at the time a loan is 90 days delinquent unless the loan is well-secured and there are no asserted or pending legal barriers to its collection. Past due status is based on the contractual terms of the loan. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual status or charged off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful.

All interest accrued but not received for loans placed on nonaccrual status is reversed against interest income. Interest received on such loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery method until qualifying for return to accrual status. Loans are returned to accrual status when the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

Nonaccrual loans and impaired loans are defined differently. Some loans may be included in both categories, and some may only be included in one category. Nonaccrual loans include both smaller balance homogeneous loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment and individually classified impaired loans.

Generally, the Bank only utilizes the “90 days delinquent, still accruing” category of loan classification when: (1) the loan is repaid in full shortly after the period end date; (2) the loan is well secured and there are no asserted or pending legal barriers to its collection; or (3) the borrower has remitted all scheduled payments and is otherwise in substantial compliance with the terms of the loan, but the processing of payments actually received or the renewal of a loan has not occurred for administrative reasons.

The Bank had $10.1 million of loans classified as troubled debt restructurings at June 30, 2010, and $396,000 of special reserves were allocated to those loans. The Company has no outstanding commitments to borrowers whose loans are classified as troubled debt restructurings.

The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. Management estimates the allowance balance required using past loan loss experience; the nature and volume of the portfolio; information about specific borrower situations; and estimated collateral values, economic conditions, and other factors. The amount of the allowance is based on estimates and the ultimate losses may vary from such estimates as more information becomes available, or as later events occur or circumstances change. Allocations of the allowance may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in management’s judgment, should be charged-off. The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are individually classified as impaired or loans otherwise classified as substandard or doubtful. The general component covers nonclassified loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for current factors.

A loan is impaired when full payment under the loan terms is not expected. Multifamily, nonresidential real estate, construction, land, and commercial loans and leases are individually evaluated for impairment. If a loan is impaired, a portion of the allowance is allocated so that the loan is reported, net, at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s existing rate or at the fair value of the collateral if repayment is expected solely from the collateral. Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans, such as consumer and residential real estate loans, are collectively evaluated for impairment, and accordingly, they are not separately identified for impairment disclosures.

Note 6 – Fair Values of Financial Instruments

Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair values:

• Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

• Level 2 – Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

• Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

The Company used the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate the fair value of each type of financial instrument:

The fair values of marketable equity securities are generally determined by quoted prices, in active markets, for each specific security (Level 1 measurement inputs). If Level 1 measurement inputs are not available for a marketable equity security, we determine its fair value based on the quoted price of a similar security traded in an active market (Level 2 measurement inputs). The fair values of debt securities are generally determined by matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely used in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities, but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 2 measurement inputs).

The fair values of loans held for sale are generally determined by quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for similar, unrestricted assets (Level 2 measurement inputs).

Note 6 – Fair Values of Financial Instruments (continued)

Impaired loans and real estate owned (“REO”) properties are evaluated and valued at the time the loan is identified as impaired or placed into REO, at the lower of cost or fair value less costs to sell. Fair value is generally based on third party appraisals and internal estimates and is therefore considered a Level 2 valuation. Collateral may be real estate and/or business assets, including equipment, inventory and/or accounts receivable. Impaired loans are reviewed and evaluated on at least a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly, based on the same factors identified above. If fair value declines subsequent to foreclosure, a valuation allowance is recorded through expense. Expenses, gains and losses on disposition, and changes in the valuation allowance are reported in noninterest income as operations of REO.

The fair values of mortgage servicing rights are based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated net servicing income. The valuation model incorporates assumptions that market participants would use in estimating future net servicing income. The Company is able to compare the valuation model inputs and results to widely available published industry data for reasonableness (Level 2 measurement inputs).

The following table sets forth the Company’s financial assets that were accounted for at fair value and are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Impaired loans, which are measured for impairment using the fair value of the collateral for collateral-dependent loans, had a carrying amount of $19.1 million and a valuation allowance of $6.0 million at June 30, 2010, compared to a carrying amount of $22.6 million and a valuation allowance of $5.1 million at December 31, 2009, resulting in an increase in the provision for loan losses of $942,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010.

REO which is carried at lower of cost or fair value less costs to sell, had a carrying value of $7.5 million at June 30, 2010, which included a write down of $188,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010, compared to a carrying value of $4.1 million at December 31, 2009.

Mortgage servicing rights, which are carried at the lower of cost or fair value, had a carrying value of $1.4 million at June 30, 2010, of which $1.0 million related to fixed rate loans and $402,000 related to adjustable rate loans, including a valuation allowance of $17,000 for fixed rate loans. There was a recovery of $57,000 on mortgage servicing rights for the six months ended June 30, 2010, compared to $43,000 for the same period in 2009.

N/A = Not Applicable

For purposes of the above, the following assumptions were used:

Cash and Cash Equivalents. The estimated fair values for cash and cash equivalents are based on their carrying value due to the short-term nature of these assets.

Loans. The estimated fair value for loans is determined by calculating the present value of future cash flows based on the current rate the Company would charge for similar loans with similar maturities, applied for an estimated time period until the loan is assumed to be repriced or repaid. Any specific loan losses established for impaired loans are deducted from the loan balance. The estimated fair values of loans held-for-sale are based on quoted market prices.

FHLBC Stock. It is not practicable to determine the fair value of Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago (“FHLBC”) stock due to the restrictions placed on its transferability.

Deposit Liabilities. The estimated fair value for certificates of deposit is determined by calculating the present value of future cash flows based on estimates of rates the Company would pay on such deposits, applied for the time period until maturity. The estimated fair values of non-interest-bearing demand, NOW, money market, and savings deposits are assumed to approximate their carrying values because management establishes rates on these deposits at a level that approximates the rates available in the local market area. Additionally, these deposits can be withdrawn on demand.

Borrowings. The estimated fair values of advances from the FHLBC and notes payable are based on current market rates for similar financing. The estimated fair values of securities sold under agreements to repurchase are assumed to equal their carrying values due to the short-term nature of the liability.

Accrued Interest. The estimated fair values of accrued interest receivable and payable are assumed to equal their carrying value.

Note 6 – Fair Values of Financial Instruments (continued)

Off-Balance-Sheet Instruments. Off-balance-sheet items consist principally of unfunded loan commitments, standby letters of credit and unused lines of credit. The estimated fair values of unfunded loan commitments, standby letters of credit and unused lines of credit are not considered material.

While the above estimates are based on management’s judgment of the most appropriate factors, as of the balance sheet date, there is no assurance that the estimated fair values would have been realized if the assets had been disposed of or the liabilities settled at that date because fair values may differ depending on the various circumstances. The estimated fair values would also not apply to subsequent dates.

In addition, other assets and liabilities that are not financial instruments, such as premises and equipment, are not included in the above disclosures.

Note 8 – Adoption of New Accounting Standards

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) amended its previous guidance relating to transfers of financial assets that eliminates the concept of a qualifying special purpose entity. This guidance must be applied as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. This guidance must be applied to transfers occurring on or after its effective date. Additionally, on and after the effective date, the concept of a qualifying special-purpose entity is no longer relevant for accounting purposes. Therefore, formerly qualifying special-purpose entities should be evaluated for consolidation by reporting entities on and after the effective date in accordance with the applicable consolidation guidance. The disclosure provisions of the guidance were also amended and apply to transfers that occurred both before and after the effective date of the guidance. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

In June 2009, the FASB amended its previous guidance for consolidation of variable interest entities by replacing the quantitative-based risks and rewards calculation for determining which enterprise, if any, has a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity. The amended guidance uses an approach that focuses on identifying which enterprise has the power to direct the activities of a variable interest entity that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance, the obligation to absorb losses of the entity, or the right to receive benefits from the entity. Additional disclosures about an enterprise’s involvement in variable interest entities are also required. This guidance is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period, and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. Early adoption is prohibited. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Note 9 – Newly Issued But Not Yet Effective Accounting Standards

In January 2010, the FASB issued guidance requiring increased fair value disclosures. There are two components to the increased disclosure requirements set forth in the guidance: (1) a description and the disclosure of the dollar amount of transfers in or out of Levels 1 or 2, and (2) in the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), a reporting entity should present separately information about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements (that is, gross amounts must be disclosed as opposed to a single net figure). Increased disclosures regarding the transfers in or out of Levels 1 and 2 are required for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009. Increased disclosures regarding the Level 3 fair value reconciliation are required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010.

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

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information

Forward Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including this Item 2, contains, and other periodic and special reports and press releases of BankFinancial Corporation may contain, forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that involve significant risks and uncertainties. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and are including this statement for the purpose of invoking these safe harbor provisions. Forward-looking statements are based on certain assumptions or describe our future plans, strategies and expectations, and are generally identifiable by use of the words “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “project,” “plan,” or similar expressions. Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of plans or strategies is inherently uncertain, and actual results may differ from those predicted. Factors that could have a material adverse effect on operations and could affect management’s outlook or our future prospects include, but are not limited to: higher than expected overhead, infrastructure and compliance costs, changes in market interest rates, changes in the yield curve, balance sheet shrinkage or less than anticipated balance sheet growth, lack of demand for loan products, illiquidity and changes in financial markets, including the market for mortgage backed securities and other debt obligations, declining demand for real estate and real estate valuations, increasing unemployment levels, deposit flows, pricing, underwriting and other forms of competition, adverse federal or state legislative or regulatory developments, monetary and fiscal policies of the U.S. Government, including policies of the U.S. Treasury and Federal Reserve Board, adverse economic conditions that could result in increased delinquencies in our loan portfolio or a decline in the value of our investment securities and the collateral for our loans, the quality or composition of our loan or investment portfolios, demand for financial services and multi-family, commercial and residential real estate loans in our market areas, the possible short-term dilutive effect of potential acquisitions or de novo branches, if any, changes in accounting principles, policies and guidelines, increased costs of federal deposit insurance, and future adverse developments concerning the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago. These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. We do not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statement in the future, or to reflect circumstances and events that occur after the date on which the forward-looking statement was made.

Critical Accounting Policies

Critical accounting policies are defined as those that are reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties, and could potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. We believe that the critical accounting policies upon which our financial condition and results of operation depend, and which involve the most complex subjective decisions or assessments, are included in the discussion entitled “Critical Accounting Policies” in Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, and all amendments thereto, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. There are no material changes to the critical accounting policies disclosed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Overview

Business conditions reflected a fitful recovery in economic conditions, which seemed to wane as the quarter progressed. The negative effects of continued high levels of unemployment, decreased home purchases and residential loan refinance activity and declines in real estate valuations offset signs of higher consumer spending and lower interest rates on residential mortgages.

Loan repayments continued to outpace loan originations for many loan categories, though commercial real estate and commercial loan balances increased slightly. We expect that demand for multifamily loans, commercial loans and commercial leases may increase as the year progresses, but there is presently insufficient evidence of a uniformly positive trend.

18

Deposit balances increased slightly principally due to seasonal factors and a relatively strong competitive posture, despite the reduced deposit pricing that we implemented during the quarter. We will continue to develop and enhance deposit relationships through our core deposit marketing program, but we expect to temper our competitive position due to our strong liquidity and the uncertainties that exist concerning loan demand.

Non-accrual loans increased modestly in the residential, multifamily and commercial loan categories, but decreased for non-residential real estate loans and construction loans. In general, we noted a continuing trend of improvement in newly delinquent loans in all categories except residential loans and increased investor interest in acquiring multifamily real estate owned assets; however, with national and local economic conditions remaining fragile, the future continuation of this trend is not yet necessarily assured. We continue to vigorously pursue non-performing loan resolutions, but the court system continues to operate at a sluggish pace.

Our net interest margin decreased modestly, due principally to a decrease in loan balances and an increase in the allowance for loan and lease losses, and our net interest spread increased slightly. Future trends in our net interest margin and net interest spread remain difficult to predict due to the vicissitudes of market interest rates, prospective loan and deposit originations and other factors.

Our non-interest income increased due to increased deposit fees and insurance commission income and lower amortization and impairment expense for residential loan servicing rights. We expect non-interest income to show modest volatility during the remainder of 2010, and believe that customer behavior and the market’s response to new federal regulations affecting certain consumer account fees will dictate the relative changes in performance in this category.

Our non-interest expense remained well-contained. The ongoing effects of functional reviews and a continued focus on productivity continued to contribute gradual improvements to our efficiency during the quarter, despite transitory increases in expenses for communications related to our Annual Shareholders’ Meeting and continued expenses related to REO operations.

Comparison of Financial Condition at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009

Total assets decreased $1.3 million, or 0.08%, to $1.566 billion at June 30, 2010, from $1.567 billion at December 31, 2009, primarily due to a $94.6 million, or 7.8%, decrease in net loans receivable to $1.124 billion at June 30, 2010, from $1.219 billion at December 31, 2009, and a $17.4 million, or 17.1%, decrease in securities to $84.7 million at June 30, 2010 from $102.1 million at December 31, 2009. These decreases were partially offset by a $111.1 million increase in cash and cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents totaled $219.3 million at June 30, 2010, compared to $108.2 million at December 31, 2009.

Our loan portfolio consists primarily of investment and business loans (multifamily, nonresidential real estate, commercial, construction and land loans, and commercial leases), which together make up 75.6% of gross loans. Net loans receivable decreased $94.6 million, or 7.8%, to $1.124 billion at June 30, 2010, from $1.219 billion at December 31, 2009. Multi-family real estate loans decreased by $23.7 million, or 7.2%, due in substantial part to a HUD refinancing that was completed by a related group of borrowers. Commercial loans decreased by $15.4 million, or 17.4%, due the combined impact of loan paydowns and reduced originations. Commercial leases decreased by $17.8 million, or 10.1%, as scheduled lease payments outpaced originations. Nonresidential real estate loans decreased $9.6 million, or 3.0%, primarily due to principal payments of $23.0 million, which were partially offset by $8.1 million in draws on existing credit commitments. Construction and land loans decreased $14.1 million, or 43.3%, primarily due to project sales and conversions to permanent amortizing loans. One-to-four family residential mortgage loans decreased $13.2 million, or 4.6%, primarily due to refinancings that were not replaced with new originations.

Our allowance for loan losses increased to $19.0 million at June 30, 2010, from $18.6 million at December 31, 2009. The increase reflects a provision for loan losses of $3.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, which reflects the impact of a $942,000 increase in the portion of the specific allowance for loan losses that we allocate to impaired loans, a $594,000 decrease in the general portion of the allowance for loan losses and $3.2 million in net charge-offs. Of the $3.2 million in net charge-offs, $2.3 million related to write-downs incurred on the transfer of collateral to real estate owned, and $804,000 related to the sale of collateral.

Securities decreased by $17.4 million, or 17.1%, to $84.7 million at June 30, 2010, from $102.1 million at December 31, 2009, primarily due to principal repayments of $17.5 million.

We owned common stock of the FHLBC with a stated par value of $15.6 million at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009. The FHLBC has not declared any dividends on its common stock since the third quarter of 2007 due to the combined effect of its financial condition and a cease and desist order that prohibits it from declaring dividends without the prior approval of the Director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency. The cease and desist order imposes a similar prior approval requirement on the FHLBC’s repurchase or redemption of common stock from existing and withdrawn members, subject to certain exceptions that are not applicable to the shares of FHLBC common stock that we own. The FHLBC has stated in its public filings that it cannot predict when it will resume paying dividends or repurchasing or redeeming common shares that are subject to the restrictions imposed by the cease and desist order.

Cash and cash equivalents increased $111.1 million, to $219.3 million at June 30, 2010, from $108.2 million at December 31, 2009.

Deposits increased $19.9 million, or 1.6%, to $1.253 billion at June 30, 2010, from $1.233 billion at December 31, 2009. The increase in deposits reflected an increase in money market account balances that was partially offset by decreases in interest-bearing NOW, non-interest bearing demand and certificates of deposit account balances. Money market accounts increased $35.0 million, or 10.9% to $357.1 million at June 30, 2010, from $322.1 million at December 31, 2009. Interest-bearing NOW accounts decreased $9.1 million, or 3.0%, to $294.2 million at June 30, 2010, non-interest bearing demand accounts decreased $4.7 million, or 4.4%, to $103.6 million at June 30, 2010, and certificates of deposit decreased $3.1 million, or 0.77%, to $400.5 million at June 30, 2010 from $403.6 million. Total core deposits (savings, money market, noninterest-bearing demand and interest-bearing NOW accounts) increased slightly as a percentage of total deposits, representing 68.0% of total deposits at June 30, 2010, compared to 67.3% of total deposits at December 31, 2009. Borrowings decreased $15.2 million, or 30.0%, to $35.6 million at June 30, 2010, from $50.8 million at December 31, 2009, due to our reductions of outstanding FHLBC advances.

22

Total stockholders’ equity was $259.4 million at June 30, 2010, compared to $263.6 million at December 31, 2009. The decrease in total stockholders’ equity was primarily due to the combined impact of our repurchase of 356,411 shares of our common stock during this six-month period at a total cost of $3.1 million, and our declaration and payment of cash dividends totaling $3.0 million. These items were partially offset by net income of $428,000, a $1.5 million increase in total stockholders’ equity that resulted from the vesting of stock-based compensation and ESOP shares earned, and a $14,000 increase in accumulated other comprehensive income. The unallocated shares of common stock that our ESOP owns were reflected as a $14.7 million reduction to stockholders’ equity at June 30, 2010, compared to a $15.2 million reduction to stockholders’ equity at December 31, 2009.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2010 and 2009

Net Loss. We had net loss of $288,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010, compared to net loss of $665,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2009. Our loss per share of common stock for the three months ended June 30, 2010 was $0.01 per basic and fully diluted share, respectively, compared to $0.03 per basic and fully diluted share, respectively, for the three-month period ended June 30, 2009.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income decreased by $439,000, or 3.3%, to $12.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, from $13.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009. Our net interest rate spread increased by three basis points to 3.30% for the three months ended June 30, 2010, from 3.27% for the same period in 2009. Our net interest margin decreased by eight points to 3.53% for the three months ended June 30, 2010, from 3.61% for the same period in 2009.

Interest income decreased $2.3 million, or 12.1%, to $16.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, from $18.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009. The decrease in interest income reflected the impact of a 57 basis point decrease in the average yield on interest earning assets to 4.54% for the three months ended June 30, 2010, from 5.11% for the same period in 2009, and a $15.1 million decrease in total average interest-earning assets to $1.453 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2010, from $1.468 billion for the same period in 2009. These decreases were partially offset by a $1.8 million decrease in interest expense.

Interest income from loans, the most significant portion of interest income, decreased $2.0 million, or 11.6%, to $15.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, from $17.4 million for the same period in 2009. The average yield on loans decreased eight basis points to 5.36% for the three months ended June 30, 2010, from 5.44% for the same period in 2009. Interest income on loans and the average yield on loans were each impacted by a net increase of $471,000 in the reserve for uncollected interest relating to loans that were placed on nonaccrual status during the three months ended June 30, 2010, and a $132.7 million, or 10.3%, decrease in average loans receivable to $1.154 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2010, from $1.287 billion for the same period in 2009.

Interest income from securities decreased by $327,000, or 26.4%, to $910,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010, from $1.2 million for the same period in 2009. The decrease in interest income from securities was primarily due to a decrease of $27.7 million, or 23.9%, in the average outstanding balance of securities to $88.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, from $115.7 million for the same period in 2009, and a 14 basis point decrease in the average yield on securities to 4.15% for the three months ended June 30, 2010, from 4.29% for the same period in 2009.

The FHLBC did not pay dividends on its common stock in 2010 or 2009.

Interest expense decreased $1.8 million, or 33.1%, to $3.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, from $5.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009. The decrease in interest expense was due in part to a 60 basis point decrease in the cost of our average interest-bearing liabilities to 1.24% for the three months ended June 30, 2010, from 1.84% for the same period in 2009. In addition, average interest-bearing liabilities decreased $6.2 million, or 0.5%, to $1.190 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2010, from $1.196 billion for the same period in 2009.

Interest expense on deposits decreased $1.5 million, or 30.4%, to $3.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, from $4.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009. The decrease in interest expense on deposits reflected a 63 basis point decrease in the average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits to 1.20% for the three months ended June 30, 2010, from 1.83% for same period in 2009. The decrease in the average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits was partially offset by a $67.8 million, or 6.3%, increase in average interest-bearing deposits to $1.147 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2010, from $1.079 billion for the same period in 2009.

23

The average cost of money market accounts decreased 69 basis points to 1.13%, from 1.82%, the average cost of NOW accounts decreased 19 basis points to 0.61%, from 0.80%, and the average cost of certificates of deposit decreased 97 basis points to 1.86% from 2.83%. The average balances of money market accounts increased $83.2 million, or 31.4%, and the average balance of NOW accounts increased $12.1 million, or 4.3%, to $292.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in the average balances of certificates of deposit of $27.7 million, or 6.4%, for the three months ended June 30, 2010.

Interest expense on borrowings decreased $321,000, or 56.9%, to $243,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010, from $564,000 for the same period in 2009. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in our average borrowings to $43.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, from $116.9 million for the same period in 2009. The decrease in average borrowings was partially offset by a 34 basis point increase in interest rates paid on borrowings to 2.27% for the three months ended June 30, 2010, from 1.93% for the same period in 2009.

Average Balance Sheets

The following table sets forth average balance sheets, average yields and costs, and certain other information for the periods indicated. No tax-equivalent yield adjustments were made, as the effect of these adjustments would not be material. Average balances are daily average balances. Nonaccrual loans are included in the computation of average balances, but are reflected in the table as loans carrying a zero yield. The yields set forth below include, where applicable, the effect of deferred fees and expenses, discounts and premiums, and purchase accounting adjustments that are amortized or accreted to interest income or expense.

Provision for Loan Losses. We establish provisions for loan losses, which are charged to operations in order to maintain the allowance for loan losses at a level we consider necessary to absorb probable incurred credit losses in the loan portfolio. In determining the level of the allowance for loan losses, we consider past and current loss experience, evaluations of real estate collateral, current economic conditions, volume and type of lending, adverse situations that may affect a borrower’s ability to repay a loan and the levels of nonaccrual and other classified loans. The amount of the allowance is based on estimates and the ultimate losses may vary from such estimates as more information becomes available or later events change. We assess the allowance for loan losses on a quarterly basis and make provisions for loan losses in order to maintain the allowance.

Based on our evaluation of the above factors, we recorded a provision for loan losses of $2.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, compared to a provision for loan losses of $2.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009. The provision for loan losses reflects $1.2 million in net charge-offs, a $1.4 million increase in the specific portion of the allowance for loan losses that we allocate to impaired loans and a $42,000 increase to the general portion of the allowance for loan and lease losses. Of the $1.2 million in net charge-offs, $860,000 related to write-downs related to the transfer of collateral to real estate owned, and $148,000 related to loan balances not fully repaid from the final disposition of collateral.

Nonperforming assets are as follows:

	June 30, 2010		March 31 2010,		$ Change
	(Dollars in thousands)
Nonaccrual loans	$	48,163	$	43,965	$	4,198
Real estate owned		7,509		6,882		627
Nonperforming assets	$	55,672	$	50,847	$	4,825

Our allowance for loan losses totaled $19.0 million, or 1.66% of total loans, at June 30, 2010, compared to $17.5 million, or 1.50% of total loans, at March 31, 2010. We used the same general methodology in evaluating the allowance for loan losses at both dates. Our allowance for loan losses represented 39.4% of nonperforming loans at June 30, 2010, and 39.8% of nonperforming loans at March 31, 2010. To the best of our knowledge, we have recorded all losses that are both probable and reasonable to estimate for each reporting period.

Noninterest Expense. Our noninterest expense was $12.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, compared to $13.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009, a decrease of $677,000. The decrease in noninterest expense was due in substantial part to a $396,000, or 5.7%, decrease in compensation and benefits expense to $6.6 million, from $6.9 million for the same period in 2009. The decrease reflected a reduction on the number of our full time equivalent employees to 338 at June 30, 2010, from 379 at June 30, 2009. Information technology expenses increased $95,000, or 11.0%, to $961,000, from $866,000 for the same period in 2009.

The decrease in interest income reflected the impact of a 55 basis point decrease in the average yield on interest earning assets to 4.69% for the six months ended June 30, 2010, from 5.24% for the same period in 2009, and a $2.4 million decrease in total average interest-earning assets to $1.445 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2010, from $1.447 billion for the same period in 2009. These decreases were partially offset by a $3.6 million decrease in interest expense,

Interest income from loans, the most significant portion of interest income, decreased $3.5 million, or 10.1%, to $31.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, from $35.0 million for the same period in 2009. The average yield on loans decreased eight basis points to 5.41% for the six months ended June 30, 2010, from 5.49% for the

27

same period in 2009. Interest income on loans and the average yield on loans were each impacted by a net increase of $645,000 in the reserve for uncollected interest relating to loans that were placed on nonaccrual status during the six months ended June 30, 2010, and a $111.9 million, or 8.7%, decrease in average loans receivable $1.174 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2010, from $1.286 billion for the same period in 2009.

Interest income from securities decreased by $662,000, or 25.7%, to $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, from $2.6 million for the same period in 2009. The decrease in interest income from securities was primarily due to a decrease of $27.1 million, or 22.7%, in the average outstanding balance of securities to $92.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, from $119.5 million for the same period in 2009, and a 17 basis point decrease in the average yield on securities to 4.19% for the six months ended June 30, 2010, from 4.36% for the same period in 2009.

The FHLBC did not pay dividends on its common stock in 2010 or 2009.

Interest expense decreased $3.6 million, or 32.3%, to $7.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, from $11.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. The decrease in interest expense was due in part to a 63 basis point decrease in the cost of our average interest-bearing liabilities to 1.30% for the six months ended June 30, 2010, from 1.93% for the same period in 2009. This decrease was partially offset by a $5.5 million, or 0.5%, increase in the average interest-bearing liabilities to $1.181 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2010, from $1.176 billion for the same period in 2009.

Interest expense on deposits decreased $3.0 million, or 29.8%, to $7.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, from $10.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. The decrease in interest expense on deposits reflected a 68 basis point decrease in the average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits to 1.26% for the six months ended June 30, 2010, from 1.94% for same period in 2009. The decrease in the average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits was partially offset by a $90.8 million, or 8.7%, increase in average interest-bearing deposits to $1.135 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2010, from $1.044 billion for the same period in 2009.

The average cost of deposits decreased in every category : money market accounts decreased 87 basis points to 1.16%, from 2.03%, the average cost of NOW accounts decreased 26 basis points to 0.63%, from 0.89%, and the average cost of certificates of deposit decreased 95 basis points to 1.97% from 2.92%. The average balances of money market accounts increased $93.3 million, or 38.0%, and the average balance of NOW accounts increased $14.4 million, or 5.2%, to $292.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in the average balances of certificates of deposit of $17.8 million, or 4.2%, for the six months ended June 30, 2010.

Interest expense on borrowings decreased $626,000, or 53.6%, to $543,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010, from $1.2 million for the same period in 2009. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in our average borrowings to $46.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, from $131.9 million for the same period in 2009. The decrease in average borrowings was partially offset by a 56 basis point increase in interest rates paid on borrowings to 2.35% for the six months ended June 30, 2010, from 1.79% for the same period in 2009.

Average Balance Sheets

The following table sets forth average balance sheets, average yields and costs, and certain other information for the periods indicated. No tax-equivalent yield adjustments were made, as the effect of these adjustments would not be material. Average balances are daily average balances. Nonaccrual loans are included in the computation of average balances, but are reflected in the table as loans carrying a zero yield. The yields set forth below include, where applicable, the effect of deferred fees and expenses, discounts and premiums, and purchase accounting adjustments that are amortized or accreted to interest income or expense.

Provision for Loan Losses.

We recorded a provision for loan losses of $3.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, compared to a $4.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. The provision for loan losses reflects $3.2 million in net charge-offs, an increase of $942,000 in the specific portion of the allowance for loan losses that we allocate to impaired loans and a $594,000 decrease to the general portion of the allowance for loan and lease losses. Of the $3.2 million in net charge-offs, $2.3 million related to write-downs incurred at the transfer of collateral to real estate owned, and $804,000 related to loan balances not fully repaid from the final disposition of collateral.

Nonperforming assets are as follows:

	June 30, 2010		December 31, 2009		$ Change
	(Dollars in thousands)
Nonaccrual loans	$	48,163	$	49,489	$	(1,326	)
Real estate owned		7,509		4,084		3,425
Nonperforming assets	$	55,672	$	53,573	$	2,099

Our allowance for loan losses totaled $19.0 million, or 1.66% of total loans, at June 30, 2010, compared to $18.6 million, or 1.51% of total loans, at December 31, 2009. We used the same general methodology in evaluating the allowance for loan losses at both dates. Our allowance for loan losses represented 39.4% of nonperforming loans at June 30, 2010, and 37.6% of nonperforming loans at December 31, 2009. To the best of our knowledge, we have recorded all losses that are both probable and reasonable to estimate for each reporting period.

The following table summarizes noninterest income for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009.

Noninterest Income. Our noninterest income decreased $177,000 to $3.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to $3.4 million for 2009. Deposit service charges and fees totaled $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009. Income from insurance commissions and annuities increased by $26,000, or 9.0%, to $314,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010, from $288,000 for the same period in 2009. Gains on sales of loans decreased to $115,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010, from $436,000 for the same period in 2009. Mortgage servicing rights amortization expense increased to $378,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010, from $290,000 for the same period in 2009, due in substantial part to the Illinois Housing Development Authority’s consolidation of the servicing of its loans with a single institution. We also recorded a recovery of $57,000 from our mortgage servicing rights reserve in the first half of 2010, compared to $43,000 in the same period in 2009. Earnings on bank-owned life insurance were $171,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010, compared to a loss of $92,000 for the same period in 2009. Other income decreased $62,000, or 29.1%, to $151,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010, from $213,000 for the same period in 2009.

Total noninterest expense	$	25,048	$	26,089	$	(1,041	)

Noninterest Expense. Our noninterest expense was $25.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, compared to $26.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009, a decrease of $1.0 million. The decrease in noninterest expense was due in substantial part to a $1.0 million, or 7.1%, decrease in compensation and benefits expense to $13.8 million, from $14.8 million for the same period in 2009. The decrease reflected a reduction on the number of our full time equivalent employees to 338 at June 30, 2010, from 379 at June 30, 2009. Net expenses for operations of real estate owned totaled $634,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010, compared to $336,000 for the same period in 2009. Net expenses for operations of real estate owned included $295,000 in write-downs or losses on REO, compared to $238,000 in 2009. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) deposit insurance premiums decreased $178,000 to $1.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2010, from $1.3 million during the same period of 2009. The FDIC materially increased the general insurance assessment rate in 2009, which resulted in the full utilization of our available premium credits and, in addition, the FDIC imposed a special premium on all depository institutions based on assets as of June 30, 2009. Other general and administrative expenses increased $231,000, or 11.8%, to $2.2 million, from $2.0 million for the same period in 2009.

Income Tax Expense. We recorded income tax expense of $265,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010, compared to $40,000 in income tax expense for the same period in 2009. Our effective tax rate for the six-months ended June 30, 2010 was 38.2%.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity. The overall objective of our liquidity management is to ensure the availability of sufficient cash funds to meet all financial commitments and to take advantage of lending and investment opportunities. We manage liquidity in order to meet deposit withdrawals on demand or at contractual maturity, to repay borrowings as they mature, and to fund new loans and investments as opportunities arise.

Our primary sources of funds are deposits, principal and interest payments on loans and securities, and, to a lesser extent, wholesale borrowings, the proceeds from maturing securities and short-term investments, and the proceeds from the sales of loans and securities. The scheduled amortization of loans and securities, as well as proceeds from borrowings, are predictable sources of funds. Other funding sources, however, such as deposit inflows, mortgage prepayments and mortgage loan sales are greatly influenced by market interest rates, economic conditions and competition. The Bank is a member of the FHLBC, which provides an additional source of short-term and long-term funding. Outstanding borrowings from the FHLBC were $29.3 million at June 30, 2010, at a weighted average interest rate of 2.71%. A total of $23.5 million of these borrowings will mature in less than one year. Outstanding FHLBC borrowings were $43.6 million at December 31, 2009.

The liquidity needs of the Company on an unconsolidated basis consist primarily of operating expenses, dividends to stockholders and stock repurchases. The primary source of liquidity for the Company currently is $18.6 million in cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2010 and cash dividends from our subsidiary, the Bank.

As of June 30, 2010, we were not aware of any known trends, events or uncertainties that have or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on our liquidity. As of June 30, 2010, we had no other material commitments for capital expenditures.

Capital Resources. Stockholders’ equity totaled $259.4 million at June 30, 2010, compared to $263.6 million at December 31, 2009. The decrease in total stockholders’ equity was primarily due to the combined impact of our repurchase of 356,411 shares of our common stock during this six month period at a total cost of $3.1 million, and our declaration and payment of cash dividends totaling $3.0 million. These items were partially offset by net income of $428,000, a $1.5 million increase resulting from the vesting of stock-based compensation and ESOP shares earned, and a $14,000 increase in accumulated other comprehensive income

Our Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of up to 5,047,423 shares of our common stock. The authorization permits shares to be repurchased in open market or negotiated transactions, and pursuant to any trading plan that may be adopted in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The authorization may be utilized at management’s discretion, subject to the limitations set forth in Rule 10b-18 of the Securities and Exchange Commission and other applicable legal requirements, and to price and other internal limitations established by the Board of Directors. The repurchase authorization will expire on November 15, 2010, unless extended by the Board of Directors. As of June 30, 2010, the Company had repurchased 4,239,134 shares of its common stock out of the 5,047,423 shares that have been authorized for repurchase. For additional information, see “Part II Item 2(c), Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds, Repurchases of Equity Securities.”

At June 30, 2010, the regulatory capital ratios and minimum required regulatory ratios for the Bank were:

	Actual Ratio		Minimum Required for Capital Adequacy Purposes		Minimum Required to be Well Capitalized Under Prompt Corrective Action Provisions
June 30, 2010
Total capital (to risk-weighted assets)	18.06	%	8.00	%	10.00	%
Tier 1 (core) capital (to risk-weighted assets)	16.94		4.00		6.00
Tier 1 (core) capital (to adjusted total assets)	12.74		4.00		5.00
December 31, 2009
Total capital (to risk-weighted assets)	16.40	%	8.00	%	10.00	%
Tier 1 (core) capital (to risk-weighted assets)	15.31		4.00		6.00
Tier 1 (core) capital (to adjusted total assets)	12.44		4.00		5.00

As of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Office of Thrift Supervision categorized the Bank as well-capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There are no conditions or events since those notifications that management believes have changed the institution’s category.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Qualitative Analysis. We believe that our most significant form of market risk is interest rate risk. Interest rate risk results from timing differences in the maturity or repricing of our assets, liabilities and off balance sheet contracts (i.e., forward loan commitments), the effect of loan prepayments and deposit withdrawals, the difference in the behavior of lending and funding rates arising from the use of different indices and “yield curve risk” arising from changing rate relationships across the spectrum of maturities for constant or variable credit risk investments. In addition to directly affecting net interest income, changes in market interest rates can also affect the amount of new loan originations, the ability of borrowers to repay variable rate loans, the volume of loan prepayments and refinancings, the carrying value of investment securities classified as available-for-sale and the flow and mix of deposits.

The general objective of our interest rate risk management is to determine the appropriate level of risk given our business strategy and then manage that risk in a manner that is consistent with our policy to reduce, to the extent possible, the exposure of our net interest income to changes in market interest rates. Our Asset/Liability Management Committee (“ALCO”), which consists of certain members of senior management, evaluates the interest rate risk inherent in certain assets and liabilities, our operating environment and capital and liquidity requirements, and modifies our lending, investing and deposit gathering strategies accordingly. The Board of Directors’ Asset/Liability Management Committee then reviews the ALCO’s activities and strategies, the effect of those strategies on our net interest margin, and the effect that changes in market interest rates would have on the economic value of our loan and securities portfolios as well as the intrinsic value of our deposits and borrowings, and reports to the full Board of Directors.

We actively evaluate interest rate risk in connection with our lending, investing and deposit activities. In an effort to better manage interest-rate risk, we have de-emphasized the origination of residential mortgage loans for our loan portfolio, and have increased our emphasis on the origination of nonresidential real estate loans, multifamily mortgage loans, commercial loans and commercial leases. In addition, depending on market interest rates and our capital and liquidity position, we generally sell all or a portion of our longer-term, fixed-rate residential loans, usually on a servicing-retained basis. Further, we primarily invest in shorter-duration securities, which generally have lower yields compared to longer-term investments. Shortening the average maturity of our interest-earning assets by increasing our investments in shorter-term loans and securities, as well as loans with variable rates of interest, helps to better match the maturities and interest rates of our assets and liabilities, thereby reducing the exposure of our net interest income to changes in market interest rates. Finally, we have classified all of our investment portfolio as available-for-sale so as to provide flexibility in liquidity management.

33

We utilize a combination of analyses to monitor the Bank’s exposure to changes in interest rates. The economic value of equity analysis is a model that estimates the change in net portfolio value (“NPV”) over a range of interest rate scenarios. NPV is the discounted present value of expected cash flows from assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet contracts. In calculating changes in NPV, we assume estimated loan prepayment rates, reinvestment rates and deposit decay rates that seem most likely based on historical experience during prior interest rate changes.

Our net interest income analysis utilizes the data derived from the dynamic GAP analysis, described below, and applies several additional elements, including actual interest rate indices and margins, contractual limitations such as interest rate floors and caps and the US Treasury yield curve as of the balance sheet date. In addition, we apply consistent parallel yield curve shifts (in both directions) to determine possible changes in net interest income if the theoretical yield curve shifts occurred instantaneously. Net interest income analysis also adjusts the dynamic GAP repricing analysis based on changes in prepayment rates resulting from the parallel yield curve shifts.

Our dynamic GAP analysis determines the relative balance between the repricing of assets and liabilities over multiple periods of time (ranging from overnight to five years). Dynamic GAP analysis includes expected cash flows from loans and mortgage-backed securities, applying prepayment rates based on the differential between the current interest rate and the market interest rate for each loan and security type. This analysis identifies mismatches in the timing of asset and liability repricing but does not necessarily provide an accurate indicator of interest rate risk because it omits the factors incorporated into the net interest income analysis.

Quantitative Analysis. The following table sets forth, as of June 30, 2010, the estimated changes in the Bank’s NPV and net interest income that would result from the designated instantaneous parallel shift in the US Treasury yield curve. Computations 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, and should not be relied upon as indicative of actual results.

Change in Interest Rates (basis points)	Estimated Increase in NPV				Decrease in Estimated Net Interest Income
	Amount		Percent		Amount			Percent
	(dollars in thousands)				(dollars in thousands)
+400	$	23,160	9.41	%	$	(243	)	(0.49	)%

+200		13,533	5.50			(261	)	(0.53	)
+100		7,312	2.97			(193	)	(0.39	)
0		—	—			—		—

The Company has opted not to include an estimate for a decrease in rates at June 30, 2010 because the results are not relevant given the current targeted Fed Funds Rate set by the Federal Open Market Committee. The table set forth above indicates that at June 30, 2010, in the event of an immediate 200 basis point increase in interest rates, the Bank would be expected to experience a 5.50% increase in NPV and a $261,000 decrease in net interest income. This data does not reflect any actions that we may undertake in response to changes in interest rates, such as changes in rates paid on certain deposit accounts based on local competitive factors, which could reduce the actual impact on NPV and net interest income, if any.

Certain shortcomings are inherent in the methodology used in the above interest rate risk measurements. Modeling changes in NPV and net interest income requires that we make certain assumptions that may or may not reflect the manner in which actual yields and costs respond to changes in market interest rates. The NPV and net interest income table presented above assumes that the composition of our interest-rate sensitive assets and liabilities existing at the beginning of a period remains constant over the period being measured and, accordingly, the data does not reflect any actions that we may undertake in response to changes in interest rates, such as changes in rates paid on certain deposit accounts based on local competitive factors. The table also assumes that a particular change in interest rates is reflected uniformly across the yield curve regardless of the duration to maturity or the repricing characteristics of specific assets and liabilities. Accordingly, although the NPV and net interest income table provides an indication of our sensitivity to interest rate changes at a particular point in time, such measurements are not intended to and do not provide a precise forecast of the effect of changes in market interest rates on our net interest income and will differ from actual results.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President and the Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of June 30, 2010. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s management, including the Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2010, there have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to various legal actions that are considered ordinary routine litigation incidental to the business of the Company, and no claim for money damages exceeds ten percent of the Company’s consolidated assets. In the opinion of management, based on currently available information, the resolution of these legal actions is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

In addition to the other information contained this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the following risk factors represent material updates and additions to the risk factors previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 8, 2010. Additional risks not presently known to us, or that we currently deem immaterial, may also adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. Further, to the extent that any of the information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q constitutes forward-looking statements, the risk factor set forth below also is a cautionary statement identifying important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of us.

Financial reform legislation recently enacted by Congress will, among other things, eliminate the Office of Thrift Supervision, tighten capital standards, create a new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and result in new laws and regulations that are expected to increase our costs of operations.

Congress recently enacted the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”). This new law will significantly change the current bank regulatory structure and affect the lending, deposit, investment, trading and operating activities of financial institutions and their holding companies. The Dodd-Frank Act requires various federal agencies to adopt a broad range of new implementing rules and regulations, and to prepare numerous studies and reports for Congress. The federal agencies are given significant discretion in drafting the implementing rules and regulations, and consequently, many of the details and much of the impact of the Dodd-Frank Act may not be known for many months or years.

Certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act are expected to have a near term impact on the Company. For example, the new law provides that the Office of Thrift Supervision, which currently the primary federal regulator for the Company and its subsidiary, BankFinancial, F.S.B., will cease to exist one year from the date of the new law’s enactment. The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, which is currently the primary federal regulator for national banks, will become the primary federal regulator for federal thrifts. The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System will supervise and regulate all savings and loan holding companies that were formerly regulated by the Office of Thrift Supervision, including the Company.

Also effective one year after the date of enactment is a provision of the Dodd-Frank Act that eliminates the federal prohibitions on paying interest on demand deposits, thus allowing businesses to have interest bearing checking accounts. Depending on competitive responses, this significant change to existing law could have an adverse impact on the Company’s interest expense.

The Dodd-Frank Act also broadens the base for Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance assessments. Assessments will now be based on the average consolidated total assets less tangible equity capital of a financial institution. The Dodd-Frank Act also permanently increases the maximum amount of deposit insurance for banks, savings institutions and credit unions to $250,000 per depositor, retroactive to January 1, 2009, and non-interest bearing transaction accounts have unlimited deposit insurance through December 31, 2013.

The Dodd-Frank Act will require publicly traded companies to give stockholders a non-binding vote on executive compensation and so-called “golden parachute” payments, and by authorizing the Securities and Exchange Commission to promulgate rules that would allow stockholders to nominate their own candidates using a company’s proxy materials. The legislation also directs the Federal Reserve Board to promulgate rules prohibiting excessive compensation paid to bank holding company executives, regardless of whether the company is publicly traded or not.

The Dodd-Frank Act creates a new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau with broad powers to supervise and enforce consumer protection laws. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has broad rule-making authority for a wide range of consumer protection laws that apply to all banks and savings institutions, including the authority to prohibit “unfair, deceptive or abusive” acts and practices. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has examination and enforcement authority over all banks and savings institutions with more than $10 billion in assets. Savings institutions such as BankFinancial, F.S.B. with $10 billion or less in assets will continued to be examined for compliance with the consumer laws by their primary bank regulators. The Dodd-Frank Act also weakens the federal preemption rules that have been applicable for national banks and federal savings associations, and gives state attorneys general the ability to enforce federal consumer protection laws.

It is difficult to predict at this time what specific impact the Dodd-Frank Act and the yet to be written implementing rules and regulations will have on community banks. However, it is expected that at a minimum they will increase our operating and compliance costs and could increase our interest expense.
