1. Basis of presentation and consolidation
 
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Hampden Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Hampden Bank (the “Bank”) and Hampden LS, Inc.  Hampden Bank is a Massachusetts chartered stock savings bank. The Company contributed funds to Hampden LS, Inc. to enable it to make a 15-year loan to the employee stock ownership plan (the “ESOP”) to allow it to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock as part of the completion of the initial public offering. Hampden Bank has two wholly-owned subsidiaries, Hampden Investment Corporation, which engages in buying, selling, holding and otherwise dealing in securities, and Hampden Insurance Agency, which ceased selling insurance products in November of 2000 and remains inactive.  All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements and the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management the information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) that are necessary for a fair presentation. The results shown for the interim period ended March 31, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for a full year. These consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended June 30, 2011 included in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on September 15, 2011.

In preparing the consolidated interim financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities, as of the date of the statement of financial condition and reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the periods presented. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, deferred income taxes, other real estate owned and other-than-temporary impairment of investment securities.

2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-02, Receivables (Topic 310), A Creditor’s Determination of Whether a Restructuring Is a Troubled Debt Restructuring. This update provides additional guidance and clarification to help creditors in determining whether a creditor has granted a concession and whether a debtor is experiencing financial difficulties for purposes of determining whether a restructuring constitutes a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”). This update is effective for the first interim or annual period beginning on or after June 15, 2011, with retrospective application to the beginning of the annual period of adoption. The measurement of impairment should be done prospectively in the period of adoption for loans that are newly identified as TDRs upon adoption of this update. In addition, the TDR disclosures required by ASU 2010-20, Receivables (Topic 310), Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses should be provided beginning in the period of adoption of this update. This guidance was adopted by the Company as of July 1, 2011 and did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
 
In April 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-03, Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860), Reconsideration of Effective Control for Repurchase Agreements. This update removes from the assessment of effective control for repurchase agreements (1) the criterion used to assess effective control relating to the transferor’s ability to repurchase or redeem financial assets even in the event of a default by the transferee and (2) the collateral maintenance implementation guidance related to that criterion. This update is effective for the first interim or annual period beginning on or after December 15, 2011 and should be applied prospectively to transactions or modifications of existing transactions that occur on or after the effective date. This guidance was adopted by the Company as of January 1, 2012, and did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
 
In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS. This update clarifies and expands the disclosures pertaining to unobservable inputs in Level 3 fair value measurements. The guidance also requires, for public companies, disclosure of the level within the fair value hierarchy for assets and liabilities not measured at fair value in the statement of financial position but for which the fair value is disclosed. The amendments in this update are to be applied prospectively. For public entities, the amendments are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. This guidance was adopted by the Company as of January 1, 2012, and did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220), Presentation of Comprehensive Income. This update amends the disclosure requirements for the presentation of comprehensive income. The amended guidance eliminates the option to present components of other comprehensive income (OCI) as part of the statement of changes in stockholder’s equity. Under the amended guidance, all changes in OCI are to be presented either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive financial statements. The changes, as modified by ASU 2011-12, are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011, although early application is permitted. Management does not expect this guidance to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-12, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220), Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in ASU 2011-05, to effectively defer only those changes in ASU 2011-05 that relate to the presentation of reclassification adjustments out of accumulated other comprehensive income.  The change is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, ending after December 31, 2011.

3. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) excludes dilution and is calculated by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed in a manner similar to that of basic EPS except that the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding is increased to include the number of incremental common shares (computed using the treasury stock method) that would have been outstanding if all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents (such as stock options and unvested restricted stock) were issued during the period. Unallocated common shares held by the ESOP are shown as a reduction in stockholders' equity and are included in the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for both basic and diluted EPS calculations as they are committed to be released.

Earnings per share for the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 have been computed as follows:

4. Dividends
 
On February 7, 2012, the Company declared a cash dividend of $0.04 per common share which was paid on February 28, 2012 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on February 14, 2012.

On May 1, 2012, the Company declared a cash dividend of $0.04 per common share which is payable on May 31, 2012 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on May 16, 2012.

5. Loan Commitments
 
Outstanding loan commitments totaled $100.1 million at March 31, 2012 and $72.1 million as of June 30, 2011. Loan commitments primarily consist of commitments to originate new loans as well as the outstanding unused portions of home equity, business and other lines of credit, and unused portions of construction loans.

6. Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities
 
GAAP defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the use of inputs used in valuation methodologies into the following three levels:
 
Level 1:
  
Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices, unadjusted, for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. A quoted price in an active market provides the most reliable evidence of fair value and shall be used to measure fair value whenever available.
   
Level 2:
  
Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or inputs to the valuation methodology are derived principally from or can be corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
   
Level 3:
  
Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using discounted cash flow methodologies, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.
 
Transfers between levels are recognized at the end of the reporting period, if applicable.
 
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating fair value disclosures for financial instruments:
 
Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying amounts of cash and federal funds sold and other short-term investments approximate fair values.
 
Securities available for sale: The fair values used by the Company are obtained from an independent pricing service, which represents either quoted market prices for identical securities, quoted market prices for comparable securities or fair values determined by pricing models that consider observable market data, such as interest rate volatilities, credit spreads and prices from market makers and live trading systems and other market indicators, industry and economic events.  These values are not adjusted by the Company.
 
Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston stock: The carrying amount of Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) stock approximates fair value based upon the redemption provisions of the FHLB of Boston.
 
Loans held for sale: Fair value of loans held for sale is estimated based on commitments on hand from investors or prevailing market prices.
 
Loans: Fair values for loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using market interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. This analysis assumes no prepayment. Fair values for non-performing loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses or underlying collateral values, where applicable.
 
Mortgage servicing rights: Mortgage servicing rights (“MSR”) are the rights of a mortgage servicer to collect mortgage payments and forward them, after deducting a fee, to the mortgage holder. The fair value of servicing rights is estimated using a present value cash flow model. The fair value of MSR is highly sensitive to changes in assumptions. Changes in prepayment speed assumptions generally have the most significant impact on the fair value of our MSR. Generally, as interest rates decline, mortgage loan prepayments accelerate due to increased refinance activity, which results in a decrease in the fair value of MSR. As interest rates rise, mortgage loan prepayments slow down, which results in an increase in the fair value of MSR. Thus, any measurement of the fair value of our MSR is limited by the conditions existing and the assumptions utilized as of a particular point in time, and those assumptions may not be appropriate if they are applied at a different point in time.
 
Deposits and mortgage escrow accounts: The fair values for non-certificate accounts and mortgage escrow accounts are, by definition, equal to the amounts payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts). Fair values for certificate accounts are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies market interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities of time deposits.
 
Securities sold under agreements to repurchase: The carrying amount of repurchase agreements approximates fair value based on the short duration of the agreements.
 
 
10

 
 
Short-term borrowings: For short-term borrowings maturing within ninety days, carrying values approximate fair values. Fair values of other short-term borrowings are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on the current incremental borrowing rates in the market for similar types of borrowing arrangements.
 
Long-term debt: The fair values of the Company's advances are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on the Company's current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.
 
Accrued interest: The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate fair value.
 
Off-balance-sheet instruments: Fair values for off-balance-sheet lending commitments are based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties' credit standing. The estimated fair value of off-balance sheet financial instruments at March 31, 2012 and June 30, 2011 was not material.
 
The Company does not measure any liabilities at fair value on either a recurring or non-recurring basis.

Also, the Company may be required, from time to time, to measure certain other assets at fair value on a non-recurring basis in accordance with GAAP.  These adjustments to fair value usually result from the application of lower-of-cost-or-market accounting or write-downs, charge-offs, and specific loss allocations of individual assets. The following table summarizes the fair value hierarchy used to determine each adjustment and the carrying value of the related individual assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of March 31, 2012 and June 30, 2011.

During the nine months ended March 31, 2012 there were no transfers from levels 1, 2, or 3.

The amount of impaired loans represents the carrying value of loans that include adjustments which are based on the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral. The fair value of collateral used by the Company represents the amount expected to be received from the sale of the property, net of selling costs, as determined by an independent, licensed or certified appraiser using observable market data. This data includes information such as selling price of similar properties, expected future cash flows or earnings of the subject property based on current market expectations, as well as relevant legal, physical and economic factors. The Company had a $128,000 gain on impaired loans for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to a gain of $42,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The Company had a $106,000 gain on impaired loans for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 compared to a loss of $159,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2011. These gains/losses were recognized in earnings through the provision for loan loss. The Company charges off any collateral shortfall on collaterally dependent impaired loans. Independent appraisals or tax assessments are obtained and updated as required for commercial real estate and residential real estate loans that are considered impaired and collateral dependent.  Losses applicable to certain impaired loans are estimated using the appraised or assessed value adjusted for market related discounts associated with foreclosure auctions, short sales, inventory of like properties, general liquidity in the market place as well as selling and disposal costs.  These considerations are applied on a case by case basis.

The Company classifies property acquired through foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure as other real estate owned (“OREO”) in its consolidated financial statements. When property is placed into OREO, it is recorded at the fair value less estimated costs to sell at the date of foreclosure or acceptance of deed in lieu of foreclosure. At the time of transfer to OREO, any excess of carrying value over fair value is charged to the allowance for loan losses. Management, or its designee, inspects all OREO property periodically. Holding costs and declines in fair value result in charges to expense after the property is acquired. The Company had a $50,000 write-down and a $52,000 gain on the sale of OREO for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2012. The Company had a $17,000 write-down and a $15,000 gain on the sale of OREO for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2011. At March 31, 2012 and 2011, the amount of other real estate owned represents the carrying value and related charge-offs for which adjustments are based on current appraised value of the collateral or, where current appraised value is not obtained, management’s discounted estimate of the collateral. 

The fair value of a financial instrument is the current amount that would be exchanged between willing parties, other than in a forced liquidation. Fair value is best determined based upon quoted market prices. However, in many instances, there are no quoted market prices for the Company's various financial instruments. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. Accordingly, the fair value estimates may not be realized in an immediate settlement of the instrument. Certain financial instruments and all non-financial instruments are exempt from disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented herein may not necessarily represent the underlying fair value of the Company.

Management conducts, at least on a quarterly basis, a review of our investment securities to determine if the value of any security has declined below its cost or amortized cost and whether such decline represents other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”).
 
At March 31, 2012, eighteen debt securities had unrealized losses with aggregate depreciation of 1.1% from the Company's amortized cost basis. In analyzing an issuer's financial condition, management considers whether the securities are issued by the federal government or its agencies, whether downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred, and industry analyst's reports. Because the majority of these securities have been issued by the U.S. Government or its agencies and as management has not decided to sell these securities, nor is it likely that the Company will be required to sell these securities, no declines are deemed to be other than temporary. At March 31, 2012, we held nine securities issued by private mortgage originators that had unrealized losses which had an amortized cost of $2.1 million and a fair value of $2.0 million. All of these investments are “Senior” Class tranches and have underlying credit enhancement. Management estimates the loss projections for each security by evaluating the industry rating, amount of delinquencies, amount of foreclosure, amount of other real estate owned, average credit scores, average amortized loan to value and credit enhancement.  Based on this review, management determines whether credit losses have occurred. Management has determined that no credit losses have occurred as of March 31, 2012.

Management performs a quarterly evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. The analysis of the allowance for loan losses has two components: specific and general allocations, which are further described below.
 
Specific allocation
 
Specific allocations are made for loans determined to be impaired. Impairment is measured by determining the present value of expected future cash flows or, for collateral-dependent loans, the fair value of the collateral adjusted for market conditions and selling expenses. The Company charges off any collateral shortfall on collaterally dependent impaired commercial loans and as of March 31, 2012, collaterally dependent impaired residential loans.
 
General allocation
 
The general allocation is determined by segregating the remaining loans, by type of loan and payment history. Consideration is given to historical loss experience, and qualitative factors such as delinquency trends, changes in underwriting standards or lending policies, procedures and practices, experience and depth of management and lending staff, and general economic conditions. This analysis establishes loss factors that are applied to the loan groups to determine the amount of the general allocations. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates that may be susceptible to significant revisions based upon changes in economic and real estate market conditions. Actual loan losses may be significantly more than the allowance for loan losses that have been established which could have a material negative effect on financial results. There were no changes in the Company’s policies or methodology pertaining to the general component of the allowance for loan losses during the year ended June 30, 2011 or the nine months ended March 31, 2012.

On a quarterly basis, management’s Loan Review Committee reviews the current status of various loan assets in order to evaluate the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. In this evaluation process, substandard or worse loans are analyzed to determine their potential risk of loss. This process concentrates on non-accrual and classified loans. Any loan determined to be impaired is evaluated for potential loss exposure. Any shortfall results in a charge-off if the likelihood of loss is evaluated as probable. The Company’s policy for charging off uncollectible loans is based on an analysis of the financial condition of the borrower and/or the collateral value. To determine the adequacy of collateral on a particular loan, an estimate of the fair market value of the collateral is based on the most current appraised value, discounted cash flow valuation or other available information.
 
The qualitative factors are assessed based on the various risk characteristics of each loan segment. Risk characteristics relevant to each portfolio segment are as follows:
 
Residential real estate – The Company generally does not originate loans with a loan-to-value ratio greater than 80 percent unless there is private mortgage insurance. All loans in this segment are collateralized by 1-4 family residential real estate and repayment is dependent on the credit quality of the individual borrower. The overall health of the economy, including unemployment rates and housing prices, will have an effect on the credit quality in this segment.
 
Commercial real estate – Loans in this segment are primarily income-producing properties throughout Massachusetts and Connecticut. The underlying cash flows generated by the properties can be adversely impacted by a downturn in the economy as evidenced by increased vacancy rates, which in turn, will have an effect on the credit quality in this segment. Management requires annual borrower financial statements, obtains rent rolls annually and continually monitors the cash flows of these loans.
 
Home equity loans - Loans in this segment are secured by first or second mortgages on 1-4 family owner occupied properties, and are generally underwritten in amounts such that the combined first and second mortgage balances generally do not exceed 85% of the value of the property serving as collateral at time of origination. Under our current underwriting standards, loan originations are made in amounts such that balances do not exceed 85% of the value of the property serving as collateral at time of origination. The lines-of-credit are available to be drawn upon for 10 to 20 years, at the end of which time they become term loans amortized over 5 to 10 years. Interest rates on home equity lines normally adjust based on the month-end prime rate published in the Wall Street Journal.
 
Residential construction loans – Loans in this segment primarily include non-speculative real estate loans. All loans in this segment are collateralized by 1-4 family residential real estate and repayment is dependent on the credit quality of the individual borrower. The overall health of the economy, including unemployment rates and housing prices, will have an effect on the credit quality in this segment.
 
Commercial construction loans – Loans in this segment primarily include construction to permanent non-speculative real estate loans. The underlying cash flows generated by the properties are adversely impacted by a downturn in the economy, which in turn, will have an effect on the credit quality in this segment.
 
Commercial loans – Loans in this segment are made to businesses and are generally secured by assets of the business. Repayment is expected from the cash flows of the business. A weakened economy, and resultant decreased consumer spending, will have an effect on the credit quality in this segment.

Automobile and other secured loans – Loans in this segment include consumer non-real estate secured loans that the Company originates as well as automobile loans that the Company purchases from third parties. The Company has the ability to select the automobile loans it purchases based on its own underwritting standards.
 
Manufactured home loans – Loans in this segment are secured by first liens on properties located primarily in the Northeast. Repayment is dependent on the credit quality of the individual borrower. The overall health of the economy, including unemployment rates, will have an effect on the credit quality in this segment. The Company has several broker funded cash reserve accounts for manufactured home loans that can be used for pre-payments and losses. These reserve accounts totaled $570,000 at March 31, 2012.
 
Other consumer loans – Loans in this segment are generally unsecured and repayment is dependent on the credit quality of the individual borrower.
 
Impaired loans
 
A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that a creditor will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal and interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impaired loans are generally placed on non-accrual status either when there is reasonable doubt as to the full collection of payments or when the loans become 90 days past due unless an evaluation clearly indicates that the loan is well secured and in the process of collection. Impairment is measured on a loan by loan basis for commercial loans 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, adjusted for market conditions and selling expenses, if the loan is collateral dependent.
 
 
18

 
 
The Company may periodically agree to modify the contractual terms of loans. When a loan is modified and a concession is made to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty, the modification is considered a TDR. All TDRs are initially classified as impaired and may be evaluated for removal from impaired status after one year of current payments for a modified loan with a market rate.
 
Credit Quality Information

The Company utilizes a nine grade internal loan rating system for all loans as follows:

Loans rated 1 – 5: Loans in these categories are considered “pass” rated loans with low to average risk.

Loans rated 6: Loans in this category are considered “special mention.” These loans are starting to show signs of potential weakness and are being closely monitored by management.

Loans rated 7: Loans in this category are considered “substandard.” Generally, a loan is considered substandard if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligors and/or the collateral pledged. There is a distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the weakness is not corrected.

Loans rated 8: Loans in this category are considered “doubtful.” Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, highly questionable and improbable.

Loans rated 9: Loans in this category are considered uncollectible (“loss”) and of such little value that their continuance as loans is not warranted. These loans are generally charged off at each quarter end.

On an annual basis, or more often if needed, the Company formally reviews the ratings on all commercial real estate, commercial construction and commercial loans. The Company engages an independent third-party to review a significant portion of loans within these segments. Management uses the results of these reviews as part of its annual review process. All credits rated 6 or worse are reviewed on a quarterly basis by management and semi-annually a statistically significant percentage is reviewed by a third party. At origination, management assigns risk ratings to 1-4 family residential loans, home equity loans, residential construction loans, manufactured home loans, and other consumer loans. The Company updates these risk ratings as needed based primarily on delinquency, bankruptcy, or tax delinquency.

The Company has transferred a portion of its originated commercial real estate and commercial loans to participating lenders. The amounts transferred have been accounted for as sales and are therefore not included in the Company’s accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Company and participating lenders share ratably in any gains or losses that may result from a borrower’s lack of compliance with contractual terms of the loan. The Company continues to service the loans on behalf of the participating lenders and, as such, collects cash payments from the borrowers, remits payments (net of servicing fees) to participating lenders and disburses required escrow funds to relevant parties. At March 31, 2012 and June 30, 2011, the Company was servicing loans for participants aggregating $27.2 million and $28.0 million, respectively.
 
 
This section is intended to help investors understand the financial performance of Hampden Bancorp, Inc. and its subsidiaries, through a discussion of the factors affecting our financial condition at  March 31, 2012 and June 30, 2011 and our consolidated results of operations for the three and nine months ended  March 31, 2012 and 2011, and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s unaudited consolidated interim financial statements and notes thereto, appearing in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Forward-Looking Statements
 
Certain statements herein constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are based on the beliefs and expectations of management, as well as the assumptions made using information currently available to management. Since these statements reflect the views of management concerning future events, these statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. As a result, actual results may differ from those contemplated by these statements. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. They often include words like "believe", "expect", "anticipate", "estimate", and "intend" or future or conditional verbs such as "will", "would", "should", "could", or "may." Certain factors that could have a material adverse affect on the operations Hampden Bank include, but are not limited to, increased competitive pressure among financial service companies, national and regional economic conditions, changes in interest rates, changes in consumer spending, borrowing and savings habits, legislative and regulatory changes, monetary and fiscal policies of the U.S. Government, including policies of the U.S. Treasury and Federal Reserve Board, adverse changes in the securities markets, inability of key third-party providers to perform their obligations to Hampden Bank, changes in relevant accounting principles and guidelines and our ability to successfully implement our branch expansion strategy. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The Company disclaims any intent or obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether in response to new information, future events or otherwise. These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. The Company’s actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain important factors, including those set forth below under Item 2 –“Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and elsewhere in this the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, including the section titled Item 1A –“Risk Factors”. You should carefully review those factors and also carefully review the risks outlined in other documents that the Company files from time to time with the SEC.  The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws.

Critical Accounting Policies
 
We consider accounting policies that require management to exercise significant judgment or discretion, or make significant assumptions that have or could have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, or related disclosures, to be critical accounting policies.  
 
Management believes that the following accounting estimates are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results, and they require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, resulting from the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Management has reviewed these critical accounting estimates and related disclosures with the Audit Committee of our Board.

Allowance for Loan Losses
 
Critical Estimates. The allowance for loan losses is established as losses are estimated to have occurred through a provision for loan losses charged to earnings. 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.
 
The allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a quarterly basis by management and is based upon management's periodic review of the collectibility of the loans in light of historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower's ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral and prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.
 
The analysis of the allowance for loan losses has two components: specific and general allocations, which are described on page 17.

Judgment and Uncertainties. The qualitative factors are assessed based on the various risk characteristics of each loan segment. Risk characteristics relevant to each portfolio segment are described on page 18.
 
Effect if Actual Results Differ from Assumptions. Although we believe we have established and maintained the allowance for loan losses at adequate levels, additions may be necessary if the current operating environment deteriorates. Management uses the best information available; however, the level of the allowance for loan losses remains an estimate that is subject to significant judgment and short-term change. In addition, the FDIC and the Massachusetts Division of Banks, as an integral part of their examination process, will periodically review our allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require us to recognize adjustments to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination.

Income Taxes
 
Critical Estimates. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are reflected at currently enacted income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. Management reviews the deferred tax assets on a quarterly basis to identify any uncertainties to the collectability of the components of the deferred tax asset.
 
Judgment and Uncertainties. In determining the deferred tax asset valuation allowance, we use historical and forecasted operating results, based upon approved business plans, including a review of the eligible carryforward periods, tax planning opportunities and other relevant considerations. Management believes that the accounting estimate related to the valuation allowance is a critical accounting estimate because the underlying assumptions can change from period to period. For example, tax law changes or variances in future projected operating performance could result in a change in the valuation allowance.
 
Effect if Actual Results Differ from Assumptions. Should actual factors and conditions differ materially from those used by management, the actual realization of net deferred tax assets or deferred tax liabilities could differ materially from the amounts recorded in the financial statements. If we were not able to realize all or part of our net deferred tax assets in the future, an adjustment to our deferred tax assets valuation allowance would be charged to income tax expense in the period such determination was made and would have a negative impact on the company’s earnings. In addition, if actual factors and conditions differ materially from those used by management, the Company could incur penalties and interest imposed by the Internal Revenue Service.

Other Real Estate Owned
 
Critical Estimates. OREO consists of all real estate, other than Company premises, actually owned or controlled by the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries, including real estate acquired through foreclosure, even if the Company has not yet received title to the property.  OREO also includes property originally acquired for future expansion but no longer intended to be used for that purpose, and foreclosed real estate sold under contract and accounted for under the deposit method of accounting.
 
The Company is permitted to acquire and hold real property used in the operation of the Company or as the Company may acquire (by foreclosure or other transfer in lieu of foreclosure) in satisfaction of all or a part of a loan or in satisfaction of a judgment or decree in its favor.  If the Company acquires real property by foreclosure or other transfer in lieu of foreclosure, it carries such real property on its books as OREO.  OREO acquired by the Company is subject to certain regulatory requirements that limit the time such property can be held by the Company, require that information regarding the property be reported to the Company’s federal regulator, subject the acquisition of such property to federal appraisal requirements, restrict the use of such property, and govern the treatment of any disposal of the property. It is the policy of the Company to sell any real property acquired through the collection of debts due it within a reasonable period of time.  During the time that the Company holds the real property, the Company shall write-down the carrying value of the property based upon the current appraised value of the property.
 
Accounting standards, which applies to all transactions in which the seller provides financing to the buyer of real estate, establishes five methods to account for the disposition of OREO. If a profit is involved in the sale of real estate, each method sets forth the manner in which the profit is to be recognized based on the terms of the sale.  However, regardless of which method is used, any loss on the disposition of OREO is to be recognized immediately.
 
Judgment and Uncertainties. The Company obtains a new or updated valuation of OREO at the time of acquisition, including periodic reappraisals or reevaluations thereafter to ensure any material change in market conditions or the physical aspects of the property are recognized.  To ensure the general validity of such appraised values, it is the responsibility of loan officers to compare sale prices and appraised values of properties previously held for their respective portfolio.  Each parcel of OREO is to be reviewed and valued by loan officers on its own merits.  The sale of OREO is also supported by this appraisal. A careful evaluation of all the relevant factors should enable the loan officer to make an accurate and reliable judgment with regard to classification.  Any portion of the carrying value in excess of appraised value should be classified as a loss.
 
Effect if Actual Results Differ from Assumptions.  Should any subsequent appraisals of the property indicate that a decrease in value has occurred since the initial acquisition, one of the following actions is required to be taken:

1.   
A write down of the recorded investment (book value) to market value be taken; or
2.   
An addition to the valuation reserve in an amount equal to or greater than the excess of recorded investment over market value should be established.
 
Comparison of Financial Condition at March 31, 2012 and June 30, 2011
 
Overview
 
Total Assets. The Company’s total assets increased $37.8 million, or 6.6%, from $573.3 million at June 30, 2011 to $611.1 million at March 31, 2012. Securities increased $19.6 million, or 17.5%, to $131.5 million and cash and cash equivalents increased $7.2 million, or 23.0%, to $38.3 million at March 31, 2012. The increase in securities and cash was due to the Company investing the excess cash it received from the increase in deposits and additional borrowings. Net loans, including loans held for sale, increased $5.7 million, or 1.4%, to $403.8 million at March 31, 2012. There was an increase in bank-owned life insurance of $5.3 million, or 49.7%, to $16.1 million at March 31, 2012. The Company purchased an additional $5.0 million of bank-owned life insurance as an additional earning asset that can offset a portion of the current costs of the employee benefits. A partial offset to these increases was a decrease in stockholders’ equity of $6.1 million, or 6.5%, to $87.4 million at March 31, 2012 compared to June 30, 2011 due primarily to the Company repurchasing 694,368 shares of Company stock for $8.6 million pursuant to the Company’s third, fourth, and fifth stock repurchase programs.

Investment Activities. The composition and fair value of the Company’s investment portfolio is included in Note 7 to the Company’s accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Securities available for sale increased $19.6 million to $131.5 million at March 31, 2012. The fair value of corporate bonds and mortgage-backed securities all increased during the nine months ended March 31, 2012.

Net Loans. The composition of the Company’s loan portfolio is included in Note 8 to the Company’s accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The increase in automobile and other secured loans is due to the Company purchasing $4.9 million of automobile loans from a third party. There was a $7.2 million increase primarily in first lien home equity loans due to a special promotion that the Company is currently running. The decrease in commercial real estate and commercial loans is due to a decrease in loan demand and loan payoffs at March 31, 2012 as compared to June 30, 2011.

During the origination of fixed rate mortgages, each loan is analyzed to determine if the loan will be sold into the secondary market or held in portfolio. The Company retains servicing for loans sold to Fannie Mae and earns a fee equal to 0.25% of the loan amount outstanding for providing these services.  Loans which the Company originates to the standards of the buyer, which may differ from the Company’s underwriting standards, are generally sold to a third party along with the servicing rights without recourse. For the nine months ended March 31, 2012, loans sold totaled $12.9 million. Of the $12.9 million of loans sold, $3.1 million were sold on a servicing-released basis, and $9.8 million were sold on a servicing-retained basis.

Non-Performing Assets. The following table sets forth the amounts of our non-performing assets at the dates indicated. The categories of our non-performing loans are included in Note 8 to the Company’s accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Generally, loans are placed on non-accrual status either when reasonable doubt exists as to the full collection of interest and principal or when a loan becomes 90 days past due, unless an evaluation clearly indicates that the loan is well-secured and in the process of collection. Past due status is based on the contractual terms of the loans. From June 30, 2011 to March 31, 2012, commercial real estate non-performing loans have decreased $1.4 million; residential mortgage non-performing loans have decreased $1.2 million; consumer, including home equity and manufactured homes, non-performing loans have decreased $167,000; and commercial non-performing loans have decreased $18,000. At March 31, 2012, the Company had fifteen TDRs totaling approximately $11.9 million, of which $714,000 is on non-accrual status. All loans that are modified and a concession granted by the Company in light of the borrower’s financial difficulty are considered a TDR and are classified as impaired loans by the Company. The interest income recorded from these loans amounted to approximately $551,000 for the nine month period ended March 31, 2012. At June 30, 2011, the Company had sixteen TDRs consisting of commercial and mortgage loans totaling approximately $11.9 million, of which $1.0 million was on non-accrual status. The interest income recorded from the restructured loans amounted to approximately $943,000 for the year ended June 30, 2011.

As of March 31, 2012, loans on non-accrual status totaled $3.4 million which consisted of $2.3 million in loans that were 90 days or greater past due, $828,000 in loans that are current or less than 30 days past due and $247,000 in loans that are 30-89 days past due. It is the Company’s policy to keep loans on non-accrual status subsequent to becoming current until the borrower can demonstrate their ability to make payments according to their loan terms for six months. As of March 31, 2012, 1-4 family residential non-accrual loans less than 90 days past due were $577,000, commercial real estate non-accrual loans less than 90 days past due were $281,000, commercial non-accrual loans less than 90 days past due were $129,000 and home equity second lien non-accrual loans less than 90 days past due were $69,000.  All non-accrual loans, TDRs, and loans with risk ratings of six or higher are assessed by the Company for impairment.

In the normal course of business, the Company may modify a loan for a credit-worthy borrower where the modified loan is not considered a TDR. In these cases, the modified terms are consistent with loan terms available to credit worthy borrowers and within normal loan pricing. The modifications to such loans are done according to our existing underwriting standards. These modified loans are not considered impaired loans by the Company. Although the few loan modifications that the Company has done appear to be successful so far, the Company does not have a sufficient amount to determine success rates for modifications. Those loans not performing with the modified terms will be addressed and classified accordingly.

Non-accrual loans, including modified loans, return to accrual status once the borrower has shown the ability and an acceptable history of repayment. The borrower must be current with their payments in accordance with the loan terms for six months for residential and commercial loans. The Company may also return a loan to accrual status if the borrower evidences sufficient cash flow to service the debt and provides additional collateral to support the collectability of the loan. For non-accrual and impaired loans that make payments, the Company recognizes cash interest payments as interest income when the Company does not have a collateral shortfall for the loan and the loan has not been charged off. If there is a collateral shortfall for the loan or it has been charged off, then the Company applies the entire payment to the principal balance on the loan.

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company 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, the collateral, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. 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 the loan is collateral dependent. Impaired loans decreased to $16.1 million at March 31, 2012 from $ 20.6 million at June 30, 2011. The Company established specific reserves aggregating $253,000 and $595,000 for impaired loans at March 31, 2012 and June 30, 2011, respectively.  Such reserves relate to six impaired loan relationships with a carrying value of $10.8 million, and are based on either management’s analysis of the expected cash flows for troubled debt restructurings or the collateral value at March 31, 2012. If impairment is measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows, the change in present value is recorded within the provision for loan loss.

The Company had two new TDR loan relationships in the nine months ended March 31, 2012. One loan relationship consists of a home equity loan and a 1-4 family residential loan totaling $233,000. The Company capitalized the interest and expenses and restructured the payments for these loans. The restructure did not result in any impairment from the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate. The second new TDR loan relationship is a commercial loan totaling $724,000 where the maturity date was extended by two years and a small impairment amount was calculated from the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate. One TDR loan relationship that was restructured as of June 30, 2011 had payment defaults during the nine months ended March 31, 2012. This loan relationship included four loans comprised of two 1-4 family residential loans totaling $203,000, one home equity loan totaling $26,000, and one commercial real estate loan totaling $175,000 as of March 31, 2012.  As of March 31, 2011, there were no TDR loans that were restructured within the previous twelve months that had any payment defaults.
 
We believe that the determination of our allowance for loan losses, including amounts required for impaired loans, is consistent with generally accepted accounting principles and current regulatory guidance. While the Company believes that it has established adequate specifically allocated and general allowances for losses on loans, adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if future conditions differ substantially from the information used in making the evaluations. In addition, as an integral part of their examination process, the Company’s regulators periodically review the allowance for loan losses. These regulatory agencies may require the Company to recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgments of information available to them at the time of their examination, thereby negatively affecting the Company’s financial condition and earnings. It is also possible that, in this current economic environment, additional loans will become impaired in future periods.

The Company classifies property acquired through foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure as OREO in its consolidated financial statements. When property is placed into OREO, it is recorded at the fair value less estimated costs to sell at the date of foreclosure or acceptance of deed in lieu of foreclosure. At the time of transfer to OREO, any excess of carrying value over fair value is charged to the allowance for loan losses. Management, or its designee, inspects all OREO property periodically. Holding costs and declines in fair value result in charges to expense after the property is acquired. At March 31, 2012, the Company had fourteen properties with a carrying value of $1.4 million classified as OREO. Two of these properties were commercial real estate properties valued at $425,000, one property was a commercial loan valued at $137,000, three properties were 1-4 family residential properties valued at $380,000 and one property was a commercial construction project valued at $218,000. Seven properties were manufactured homes valued at $316,000; however, there is a specific valuation reserve of $113,000 with respect to such properties. Any losses on the manufactured housing portfolio would first impact the broker funded cash reserve specifically maintained for manufactured housing loans.

It is the Company’s policy to classify all non-accrual loans as impaired loans. All impaired loans are measured on a loan-by -loan basis to determine if any specific allowance is required for the allowance for loan loss. 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 the loan is collateral dependent. If the impaired loan has a shortfall in the expected future cash flows then a specific allowance will be placed on the loan in that amount. However, the Company may consider collateral values where it feels there is greater risk and the expected future cash flow allowance is not sufficient. Residential, commercial real estate and construction loans are secured by real estate. Except for one, all commercial loans are secured by all business assets and many also include primary or secondary mortgage positions on business and/or personal real estate. The other commercial loan is secured by shares of stock of a subsidiary to a borrower.

When calculating the general allowance component of the allowance for loan losses, the Company analyzes the trend in delinquencies. If there is an increase in the amount of delinquent loans in a particular loan category this may cause the Company to increase the general allowance requirement for that loan category. A partial charge-off on a non-performing loan will decrease the amount of non-performing and impaired loans, as well as any specific allowance requirement that loan may have had. This will also decrease our allowance for loan losses, as well as our allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans ratio and our allowance for loan losses to total loans ratio. The Company incorporates historical charge-offs, including charge-offs recognized in the current quarter, which are annualized, when calculating the general allowance component of the allowance for loan losses.

Loan Servicing.  In the ordinary course of business, the Company sells real estate loans to the secondary market.  The Company retains servicing on certain loans sold and earns servicing fees of 0.25% per annum based on the monthly outstanding balance of the loans serviced.  The Company recognizes servicing assets each time it undertakes an obligation to service loans sold.  The Company’s mortgage servicing asset valuation is performed by an independent third party using a statistic valuation model representing the projection into the future of a single interest rate/market environment. The projected cash flows are then discounted back to present value. Discount rates, estimate of servicing costs and ancillary income, estimates of float earnings rates and delinquency information as well as an estimate of prepayments are used to calculate the value of the mortgage servicing asset.

The changes in servicing assets measured using fair value are as follows:

There are no recourse provisions for the loans that are serviced for others.  The risks inherent in mortgage servicing assets relate primarily to changes in prepayments that result from shifts in mortgage interest rates. For the three month periods ended March 31, 2012, and 2011, amounts recognized for loan servicing fees amounted to $49,000 and $64,000, respectively, which are included in other non-interest income in the consolidated statements of income.  For the nine month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, amounts recognized for loan servicing fees amounted to $168,000 and $184,000, respectively, which are included in other non-interest income in the consolidated statements of income. The unpaid principal balance of mortgages serviced for others was $58.8 million and $53.6 million at March 31, 2012 and June 30, 2011, respectively.

Deposits increased $18.2 million, or 4.4%, to $435.4 million at March 31, 2012 from $417.3 million at June 30, 2011. The increase in deposits is due to the Company’s increased focus on obtaining core deposits.

Borrowings include advances from the FHLB, as well as securities sold under agreements to repurchase, and have increased $25.9 million, or 47.4%, to $80.6 million at March 31, 2012 from $54.7 million at June 30, 2011. Advances from the FHLB increased $24.4 million and repurchase agreements increased $1.5 million. The Company used these FHLB borrowings to match fund some of its investing assets. In July 2011, the Company restructured $23.3 million of FHLB borrowings. After the restructuring, the weighted average cost of these borrowings was reduced by 1.31% to 3.03%.

Stockholders’ Equity. Stockholders’ equity decreased $6.1 million, or 6.5%, to $87.4 million at March 31, 2012 from $93.5 million at June 30, 2011. During the nine months ended March 31, 2012, the Company repurchased 694,368 shares of Company stock for $8.6 million, at an average price of $12.43 per share pursuant to the Company’s previously announced stock repurchase programs. In addition, the Company repurchased 19,523 shares of Company stock, at an average price of $11.93 per share, in the nine months ended March 31, 2012 in connection with the annual vesting of certain restricted stock grants issued pursuant to our 2008 Equity Incentive Plan. The Company repurchased these shares from the employee plan participants for settlement of tax withholding obligations. The Company is currently repurchasing shares under its sixth stock repurchase program, pursuant to which the Company is authorized to purchase up to 304,280 shares, or approximately 5%, of the Company’s outstanding common stock. As of March 31, 2012, no shares have been repurchased under this program. Our ratio of capital to total assets decreased to 14.3% at March 31, 2012 compared to 16.3% at June 30, 2011. The Company’s book value as of March 31, 2012 was $14.37 per share.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2012 and March 31, 2011

Net Income. The Company had a $624,000, or 246.6%, increase in net income for the three months ended March 31, 2012 to $877,000, or $0.16 per fully diluted share, as compared to $253,000, or $0.04 per fully diluted share, for the same period in 2011. The provision for loan losses decreased $575,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011, due to decreases in delinquent loans, including non-accrual loans, declining impaired loans and continued improvement in general economic conditions. The Company had an increase in net interest income of $435,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011. There was an increase in interest and dividend income, including fees, of $29,000, or 0.5%, for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011 due to an increase in loan balances. For the three month period ended March 31, 2012, interest expense decreased by $406,000, or 22.9%, compared to the three month period ended March 31, 2011. This decrease in interest expense included a decrease in deposit interest expense of $291,000 and a decrease in borrowing interest expense of $115,000, due to a decrease in the rates on deposits and the restructuring of borrowed funds in the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The increase in non-interest income of $131,000, for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011 was primarily due to an increase in the gain (loss) on sale of securities of $113,000 and the gain on sale of loans of $89,000. Non-interest expense remained relatively unchanged for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011. Our combined federal and state effective tax rate was 37.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to a 9.1% benefit for the same period in 2011. The 9.1% benefit for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was due to the Company reversing $100,000 of the valuation reserve against a deferred tax asset.

Analysis of Net Interest Income

Net interest income represents the difference between income on interest-earning assets and expense on interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income depends upon the relative amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the interest rates earned or paid on them.

The following table sets forth average balance sheets, average yields and costs, and certain other information for the periods indicated. All average balances are daily average balances. The yields set forth below include the effect of deferred costs, and discounts and premiums that are amortized or accreted to interest income or expense. The Company does not accrue interest on loans on non-accrual status; however, the balance of these loans is included in the total average balance, which has the effect of lowering average loan yields.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $4.8 million, an increase of $435,000 or 9.9%, over the same period of 2011. This was primarily due to a decrease in interest expense of $406,000 for the three months March 31, 2012 over the same period in 2011. The decrease in interest expense was due to a decrease of 40 basis points in the average cost of funds for the three months ended March 31, 2012 over the same period in 2011. There was also a $29,000, or 0.5%, increase in interest and dividend income for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011.

Interest Income. Interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2012 increased $29,000, or 0.5%, to $6.2 million over the same period of 2011. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, average outstanding loans increased $8.1 million, or 2.0%, from the average for the three month period ended March 31, 2011. The average yield on interest earning assets decreased 1 basis point to 4.58% for the three months ended March 31, 2012, compared to 4.59% for the same period in 2011. Due to interest rate risk, the Company has decided to sell the majority of its current originations of long-term fixed rate mortgages.
 
Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased $406,000, or 22.9%, to $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in rates of deposits and borrowings and a decrease in the average balance of certificates of deposits. The average cost of funds decreased to 1.27% for the three months ended March 31, 2012, a decrease of 40 basis points from a cost of funds of 1.67% for the same period in 2011. The decrease in the cost of funds is partially due to the result of the current low interest rate environment as well as an increase in transaction and money market deposit accounts. In July 2011, the Company restructured $23.3 million of Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston borrowings. After the restructuring, the weighted average cost of these borrowings was reduced by 1.31% to 3.03%. The decrease in the cost of funds is also due to the restructuring of these borrowings with the lower rates in effect for the quarter and an overall decrease in long-term debt.

Provision for Loan Losses. The Company’s provision for loan loss expense was $25,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to $600,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011.  The decrease in the provision is due to decreases in delinquent loans, including non-accrual loans, declining impaired loans and continued improvement in general economic conditions.  As of March 31, 2012, the Company’s total allowance for loan losses of $5.2 million decreased from $5.5 million at June 30, 2011. The allowance for loan losses decreased slightly to 1.28% of total loans as of March 31, 2012 compared to 1.29% of total loans as of March 31, 2011. However, the allowance for loan losses covers 153.67% of our non-performing loans at March 31, 2012.
 
Non-interest Income. Total non-interest income totaled $748,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012, an increase of $131,000 from the same period a year ago. There was an increase in the gain (loss) on sales of securities of $113,000 and a gain on sales of loans, net of $89,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the same period a year ago. A partial offset to these increases was a decrease of $56,000 in customer service fees for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the same period a year ago, due to a $51,000 decrease in ATM / debit card fees. There was also a $47,000 decrease in other non-interest income due to a $57,000 decrease in excess servicing fees. The decrease in excess servicing fees was partially offset by an increase of $29,000 in OREO rental income for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011. The Company is currently leasing one OREO property to a third party and has a purchase and sale with that third party to be exercised in approximately fifteen months.
 
Non-interest Expense. Non-interest expense decreased $21,000, or 0.5%, to $4.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the same period for 2011. There was a decrease in data processing services of $59,000; a decrease in FDIC insurance and assessment expense of $54,000 due to changes in the FDIC assessment formula; a net gain on other real estate owned of $52,000; a decrease in advertising expenses of $39,000; and a decrease in occupancy and equipment of $16,000. All of these decreases were partially offset by an increase in other general and administrative expenses of $128,000 and an increase in salaries and employee benefits of $71,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the same period a year ago. The $128,000 increase in other general and administrative expenses primarily consisted of a $75,000 increase in professional fees, a $24,000 increase in office expense and a $14,000 increase in loan expense.
 
Income Taxes. Income tax expense increased $538,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the same period for 2011. Our combined federal and state effective tax rate was 37.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to a 9.1% benefit for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The 9.1% benefit for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was due to the Company reversing $100,000 of the valuation reserve against the deferred tax asset established in connection with the charitable contribution carryforward.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Nine Months Ended March 31, 2012 and March 31, 2011
 
Net Income. The Company had a $819,000, or 63.6%, increase in net income for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 to $2.1 million, or $0.35 per fully diluted share, as compared to $1.3 million, or $0.20 per fully diluted share, for the same period in 2011. The Company had an increase in net interest income of $790,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2011. There was a decrease in interest and dividend income, including fees, of $760,000, or 3.9%, for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2011. This decrease in interest income was mainly due to a decrease in loan income of $495,000 and a decrease in debt securities income of $250,000. For the nine month period ended March 31, 2012, interest expense decreased by $1.6 million, or 26.3%, compared to the nine month period ended March 31, 2011. This decrease in interest expense included a decrease in deposit interest expense of $1.1 million and a decrease in borrowing interest expense of $450,000. The provision for loan losses decreased $775,000 for the nine month period ended March 31, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011, due to decreases in delinquent loans, including in non-accrual loans, declining impaired loans and continued improvement in general economic conditions. Non-interest income increased $98,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011 due to a $105,000 loss on sales or calls / impairment of securities, net, in fiscal year 2011. This loss was due to the Company recording a loss of $58,000 for four marketable equity securities that the Company considered to be OTTI securities and selling two equity securities for a loss of $54,000 in fiscal year 2011.The increase in non-interest expense of $234,000, or 1.9%, for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011 was due to increases in salaries and employee benefits of $250,000 and other general and administrative expenses of $256,000. Partial offsets to these increases were a decrease in FDIC insurance expenses of $235,000 and a decrease in data processing services of $83,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011. Our combined federal and state effective tax rate was 35.4% for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 compared to 29.8% for the same period in 2010. The reason for the increase in the effective tax rate is due to the Company reversing $100,000 of the valuation reserve against a deferred tax asset.

Analysis of Net Interest Income

Net interest income represents the difference between income on interest-earning assets and expense on interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income depends upon the relative amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the interest rates earned or paid on them.

The following table sets forth average balance sheets, average yields and costs, and certain other information for the periods indicated. All average balances are daily average balances. The yields set forth below include the effect of deferred costs, and discounts and premiums that are amortized or accreted to interest income or expense. The Company does not accrue interest on loans on non-accrual status; however, the balance of these loans is included in the total average balance, which has the effect of lowering average loan yields.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 was $14.2 million, an increase of $790,000 or 5.9%, over the same period of 2011. This was primarily due to a decrease in interest expense of $1.6 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 over the same period in 2011. This decrease was due to a decrease of $10.2 million in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities as well as a decrease of 45 basis points in the average cost of funds for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 over the same period in 2011. A partial offset to this was a decrease in the average yield on interest earning assets of 11 basis points to 4.62% for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 over the same period in 2011, as well as a decrease of $8.8 million in the average balance of interest earning assets for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 over the same period in 2011.

Interest Income. Interest income for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 decreased $760,000, or 3.9%, to $18.6 million over the same period of 2011. For the nine months ended March 31, 2012, average outstanding loans decreased $1.7 million, or 0.4%, from the average for the nine month period ended March 31, 2011. Due to interest rate risk, the Company has decided to sell the majority of its current originations of long-term fixed rate mortgages, which is contributing to the decrease in average outstanding loans as well as the decrease in interest income. The average yield on interest earning assets decreased 11 basis points to 4.62% for the nine months ended March 31, 2012, compared to 4.73% for the same period in 2011.

Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased $1.6 million, or 26.3%, to $4.3 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2012. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in rates of deposits and borrowings and a decrease in the average balance of certificates of deposits. The average cost of funds decreased to 1.38% for the nine months ended March 31, 2012, a decrease of 45 basis points from a cost of funds of 1.83% for the same period in 2011. The decrease in the cost of funds is partially due to the result of the current low interest rate environment as well as an increase in transaction and money market deposit accounts away from higher paying certificates of deposit. In July 2011, the Company restructured $23.3 million of Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston borrowings. After the restructuring, the weighted average cost of these borrowings was reduced by 1.31% to 3.03%. The decrease in the cost of funds is also due to the restructuring of these borrowings with the lower rates in effect for the nine months and an overall decrease in long-term debt.

Provision for Loan Losses. The Company’s provision for loan loss expense was $425,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 compared to $1.2 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2011. The decrease in the provision is due to decreases in delinquent loans, including non-accrual loans, declining impaired loans and continued improvement in general economic conditions.  As of March 31, 2012, the Company’s total allowance for loan losses of $5.2 million decreased from $5.5 million at June 30, 2011. The allowance for loan losses decreased slightly to 1.28% of total loans as of March 31, 2012 compared to 1.29% of total loans as of March 31, 2011.

Non-interest Income. Total non-interest income totaled $2.3 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2012, an increase of $98,000 from the same period a year ago. There was no loss on sales or calls / impairment of securities, net during the nine months ended March 31, 2012. The Company recorded a loss of $58,000 for four marketable equity securities that the Company considered to be OTTI securities for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The Company also sold two equity securities for a loss of $54,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2011. There was an increase of $32,000 in other non-interest income, which was due to an $82,000 increase in OREO rental income. The Company is currently leasing one OREO property to a third party and has a purchase and sale with that third party to be exercised in approximately fifteen months. A partial offset to these increases was a decrease of $68,000 in customer service fees for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the same period a year ago, due to a $78,000 decrease in ATM / debit card fees.
 
Non-interest Expense. Non-interest expense increased $234,000, or 1.9%, to $12.9 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the same period for 2011. This increase was largely due to an increase in salaries and employee benefits of $250,000 and an increase in other general and administrative expenses of $256,000. The $256,000 increase in other general and administrative expenses primarily consisted of a $196,000 increase in professional fees, a $28,000 increase in other expense, a $17,000 increase in loan expense and a $11,000 increase in office expense.  These increases were partially offset by a decrease in FDIC insurance and assessment expense of $235,000 due to changes in the FDIC assessment formula and a decrease in data processing expenses of $83,000.

Income Taxes. Income tax expense increased $610,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the same period for 2011. Our combined federal and state effective tax rate was 35.4% for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 compared to 29.8% for the nine months ended March 31, 2011. The reason for the increase in the effective tax rate is due to the Company reversing $100,000 of the valuation reserve against the deferred tax asset established in connection with the charitable contribution carryforward in the third quarter of fiscal 2011.

Minimum Regulatory Capital Requirements. As of March 31, 2012, the most recent notification from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation categorized Hampden Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, an institution must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the following table. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes has changed Hampden Bank’s category. The Company’s and Bank’s capital amounts and ratios (unaudited) as of March 31, 2012 and June 30, 2011 are presented in the following table.

Liquidity Risk Management. Liquidity risk, or the risk to earnings and capital arising from an organization’s inability to meet its obligations without incurring unacceptable losses, is managed by the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, who monitors on a daily basis the adequacy of the Company’s liquidity position. Oversight is provided by the Asset/Liability Committee, which reviews the Company’s liquidity on a monthly basis, and by the Board of Directors of the Company, which reviews the adequacy of our liquidity resources on a quarterly basis.

The Company’s primary sources of funds are from deposits, amortization of loans, prepayments and the maturity of mortgage-backed securities and other investments, and other funds provided by operations. While scheduled payments from the amortization of loans and mortgage-backed securities and maturing loans and investment securities are relatively predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments can be greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition. We maintain excess funds in cash and short-term interest-bearing assets that provide additional liquidity. At March 31, 2012, cash and cash equivalents totaled $38.3 million, or 6.3% of total assets.

The Company also relies on outside borrowings from the FHLB as an additional funding source. The Company uses FHLB borrowings to fund growth in the balance sheet and to assist in the management of its interest rate risk by match funding longer term fixed rate loans.

The Company uses it’s liquidity to fund existing and future loan commitments, to fund maturing certificates of deposit and borrowings, to fund other deposit withdrawals, to invest in other interest-earning assets and to meet operating expenses. The Company anticipates that it will continue to have sufficient funds and alternative funding sources to meet its commitments.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. In the normal course of business, there are outstanding commitments which are not reflected in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract and generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses. The following table presents certain information about the Company’s loan commitments and other contingencies outstanding as of March 31, 2012 and June 30, 2011.

There have been no material changes in the Company’s market risk during the nine months ended March 31, 2012. See the discussion and analysis of quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk provided in the section entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2011 for a general discussion of the qualitative aspects of market risk and discussion of the simulation model used by the Company to measure its interest rate risk.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, have concluded that, based on such evaluation, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective and designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and our management necessarily was required to apply this judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.



The Company is not involved in any pending legal proceedings other than routine legal proceedings occurring in the ordinary course of business. Such routine legal proceedings, in the aggregate, are believed by management to be immaterial to the financial condition and results of operations of the Company.


There has been no material changes in the Company’s risk factors during the nine months ended March 31, 2012. See the discussion and analysis of risk factors, in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2011.
