MADISON BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

December 31, 2012

 

Note 1.  Activities and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Madison Bancorp, Inc., the “Company”, was incorporated on May 20, 2010, to be the holding company for Madison Square Federal Savings Bank, the “Bank”, in conjunction with the Bank’s conversion from the mutual to stock form of ownership. On October 6, 2010, in accordance with a Plan of Conversion adopted by its Board of Directors and approved by its members, the Bank converted from a mutual savings bank to a stock savings bank and became the wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The conversion was accomplished through the sale and issuance of 608,116 shares of common stock at a price of $10.00 per share, through which the Company received proceeds of $5,340,068, net of offering expenses of $741,092. In connection with the conversion, the Bank’s Board of Directors adopted an employee stock ownership plan, the “ESOP”, which subscribed for 7% of the number of shares sold in the offering, or 42,568 shares of common stock. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

In accordance with applicable regulations governing the conversion, upon the completion of the conversion, the Bank restricted retained earnings by establishing a liquidation account. The liquidation account will be maintained for the benefit of eligible account holders who continue to maintain their accounts at the Bank after conversion. The liquidation account will be reduced annually to the extent that eligible account holders have reduced their qualifying deposits. Subsequent increases will not restore an eligible account holder’s interest in the liquidation account. In the event of a complete liquidation of the Bank, and only in such event, each account holder will be entitled to receive a distribution from the liquidation account in an amount proportionate to the adjusted qualifying account balances then held. The Bank may not pay dividends if those dividends would reduce equity capital below the required liquidation account amount.

 

Madison Square Federal Savings Bank was incorporated in 1870 under the laws of the State of Maryland. The Bank is a federally chartered savings bank engaged in banking and related services primarily in the Baltimore Metropolitan area.

 

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

The foregoing consolidated financial statements are unaudited; however, in the opinion of management, we have included all adjustments (comprising only normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim period. We derived the balances as of March 31, 2012 from audited financial statements. These statements should be read in conjunction with Madison Bancorp’s financial statements and accompanying notes included in Madison Bancorp’s Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2012. We have made no significant changes to Madison Bancorp’s accounting policies as disclosed in the Form 10-K.

 

The accounting and reporting policies of Madison Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries (collectively “Madison”) conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, “U.S. GAAP”, and to general practices in the banking industry. The more significant policies follow:

 

Principles of Consolidation. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the parent company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Madison Square Federal Savings Bank and its wholly owned subsidiary, Madison Financial Services Corporation, “MFSC”. MFSC is engaged in the business of insurance and brokerage services primarily in the Baltimore area. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Reclassifications. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period classifications. The reclassifications had no effect on net income or the net change in cash and cash equivalents and are not material to previously issued financial statements.

 

Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ significantly 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 tax valuation allowances, the fair value of investment securities, and other than temporary impairment of investment securities.

 

8
 

 

Subsequent Events. We evaluated subsequent events after December 31, 2012 through February 8, 2013, the date this report was available to be issued. No significant subsequent events were identified which would affect the presentation of the financial statements.

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance

 

ASU No. 2011-03, “Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860) - Reconsideration of Effective Control for Repurchase Agreements.” ASU 2011-03 is intended to improve financial reporting of repurchase agreements and other agreements that both entitle and obligate a transferor to repurchase or redeem financial assets before their maturity. ASU 2011-03 removes from the assessment of effective control (i) the criterion requiring the transferor to have the ability to repurchase or redeem the financial assets on substantially the agreed terms, even in the event of default by the transferee, and (ii) the collateral maintenance guidance related to that criterion. ASU 2011-03 became effective for the Bank on April 1, 2012 and is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements.

 

ASU 2011-04, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) - Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs.” ASU 2011-04 amends Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” to converge the fair value measurement guidance in U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and International Financial Reporting Standards. ASU 2011-04 clarifies the application of existing fair value measurement requirements, changes certain principles in Topic 820 and requires additional fair value disclosures. ASU 2011-04 became effective for the Bank on April 1, 2012 and is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements.

 

ASU 2011-05, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) - Presentation of Comprehensive Income.” ASU 2011-05 amends Topic 220, “Comprehensive Income,” to require that all non-owner changes in shareholders’ equity be presented in either a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. Additionally, ASU 2011-05 requires entities to present, on the face of the financial statements, reclassification adjustments for items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income in the statement or statements where the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income are presented. The option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in shareholders’ equity was eliminated. ASU 2011-05 became effective for the Bank on April 1, 2012; however, certain provisions related to the presentation of reclassification adjustments have been deferred by 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 Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05,” as further discussed below. In connection with the application of ASU 2011-05, our financial statements include separate statements of comprehensive income.

 

ASU 2011-08, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) - Testing Goodwill for Impairment.” ASU 2011-08 amends Topic 350, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other,” to give entities the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If, after assessing the totality of events or circumstances, an entity determines it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then performing the two-step impairment test is unnecessary. However, if an entity concludes otherwise, then it is required to perform the first step of the two-step impairment test by calculating the fair value of the reporting unit and comparing the fair value with the carrying amount of the reporting unit. ASU 2011-08 became effective for the Bank on April 1, 2012 and is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements.

 

ASU 2011-11, “Balance Sheet (Topic 210) - “Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities.” ASU 2011-11 amends Topic 210, “Balance Sheet,” to require an entity to disclose both gross and net information about financial instruments, such as sales and repurchase agreements and reverse sale and repurchase agreements and securities borrowing/lending arrangements, and derivative instruments that are eligible for offset in the statement of financial position and/or subject to a master netting arrangement or similar agreement. ASU 2011-11 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning on April 1, 2013, and is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements.

 

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 Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05.” ASU 2011-12 defers changes in ASU No. 2011-05 that relate to the presentation of reclassification adjustments to allow the FASB time to redeliberate whether to require presentation of such adjustments on the face of the financial statements to show the effects of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the components of net income and other comprehensive income. ASU 2011-12 allows entities to continue to report reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income consistent with the presentation requirements in effect before ASU No. 2011-05. All other requirements in ASU No. 2011-05 are not affected by ASU No. 2011-12. ASU 2011-12 became effective for the Bank on April 1, 2012 and is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements.

Note 2. Earnings per Share

 

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity. Both the basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 are summarized below:

Credit Quality Indicators

 

Management considers all aspects of the loan: among other things, the overall risk involved; the nature of the collateral; the character, capacity, financial responsibility and record of the borrower; and the probability of repayment or orderly liquidation in accordance with the loan terms.

 

Asset quality ratings are divided into three groups: Pass (unclassified), Special Mention, and Classified (adverse classification).

 

Pass - A pass loan is considered of sufficient quality to preclude a special mention or an adverse rating. Pass assets generally are well protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or by the value of the asset or underlying collateral.

 

Special Mention - The purpose of the special mention category is to identify assets that do not warrant adverse classification, but do possess credit deficiencies or other potential weaknesses.

 

Loans that would primarily fall into this notational category could have been previously classified adversely, but the deficiencies have since been corrected. Management should closely monitor recent payment history of the loan and value of the collateral.

 

Loans that are designated as special mention will include loans that are 60-89 days delinquent. Single family residential loans, construction loans that are under contract of sale, and consumer loans that are designated special mention will not require separate fair value calculations and will not warrant increases in the general valuation allowance “GVA”. If adverse circumstances warrant additional GVA or specific reserves, an analysis will be performed on a case-by-case basis.

 

Other loans designated as special mention will require analysis to determine if the value of the loan is equal to or greater than the Bank’s recorded investment. If necessary, additional GVA’s may be allocated to a specific loan category that has special mention loans that have a deficiency in the value of the collateral as compared to the Bank’s recorded investment.

 

13
 

 

 

Substandard - Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth or paying capacity of the borrower or the value of pledged collateral. Substandard loans are characterized by the possibility that the Bank estimates that it will be unable to collect all amounts due as required in the loan documents and therefore determines it may sustain losses if deficiencies are not corrected. This will be the measurement for determining if a loan is impaired.

 

Loans classified as substandard may exhibit one or more of the following characteristics:

   

·Collateral has deteriorated.

·The primary source of repayment is gone and the Bank is relying upon a secondary source.

·A loss does not seem likely but significant problems exist, leading the Bank to go to great lengths to protect its investment.

·Borrowers are unable to generate enough cash flow for debt reduction.

·Flaws in documentation exist, leaving the Bank as a lender in a subordinated or unsecured position.

·The feasibility of an orderly and prompt sale of the collateral is not possible.

·Slow payment history.

  

Loans classified as substandard will require calculations to determine the fair value on the particular loan. In determining the general valuation allowance, loans of similar characteristics will be analyzed on a pool basis. Examples of these types of loans include single-family residential loans and certain consumer loans such as car loans or home equity loans. When a loan is classified and is part of these loan types, the general valuation allowance on this particular type may be increased to reflect the potential for loss.

 

Construction loans, land acquisition and development, commercial real estate and 5 or more dwelling units that are deemed impaired will require calculations to determine the fair value on the particular asset when the loan is classified as substandard. If the calculation yields a value below the recorded investment of the asset and the loan is determined to have collectability issues that result in a deficiency, the deficiency amount will be charged off.

 

Doubtful - Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses of loans classified as substandard, but in addition, on the basis of current facts, collection or liquidation in full is questionable and improbable. A loan classified as doubtful exhibits loss potential. However, there is still sufficient reason to permit the loan to remain on the books. A doubtful classification could reflect the deterioration of the primary source of repayment and serious doubt exists as to the quality of the secondary source of repayment.

 

Doubtful classifications should be used only when a distinct and known possibility of loss exists. When identified, adequate loss should be recorded for specific assets. The entire asset should not be classified as doubtful if a partial recovery is expected, such as a liquidation of the collateral or the probability of a private mortgage insurance payment is likely.

 

Loss - Loans classified as loss are considered uncollectable and of such little value that their continuance as loans is unjustified. A loss classification does not mean a loan has absolutely no value; partial recoveries may be received in the future.

 

When loans or portions of a loan are considered a “loss”, it will be the policy of the Company to write-off the amount designated as loss. Recoveries will be treated as additions to the general valuation allowance.

We occasionally modify loans to extend the term to help borrowers stay current on their loan and to avoid foreclosure. At December 31, 2012, we had seven 1-4 single family mortgage loans totaling approximately $1.0 million that we had modified the terms either by extending the term or increasing the payments to allow the customer to become current. We did not forgive any principal or interest, or modify the interest rates on the loans. Four of these seven modified loans with balances totaling $407,000 were current and three of these seven with balances totaling $633,000 were 60-89 days delinquent at December 31, 2012. We also had two 1-4 single family mortgage loans totaling approximately $382,000 at December 31, 2012 which had received rate modifications to current market rates. One of these two loans in the amount of $7,000 is current at December 31, 2012 and is classified as substandard. The other loan of $375,000 has remained current through the nine months ended December 31, 2012 and is not adversely classified.

The following tables set forth for the nine months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 and for the year ended March 31, 2012, the balance of the allowance for loan losses by portfolio segment, disaggregated by impairment methodology, which is then further segregated by amounts evaluated for impairment collectively and individually. The allowance for loan losses allocated to each portfolio segment is not necessarily indicative of future losses in any particular portfolio segment and does not restrict the use of the allowance to absorb losses in other portfolio segments.

Madison recorded a partial charge-off on twelve residential 1-4 single family mortgage loans and one residential mortgage land loan, writing them down to their net realizable value for the nine months ended December 31, 2012.

 

Note 6. Borrowings

 

At December 31, 2012, the Bank had the ability to borrow a total of approximately $30.9 million from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta, and the Bank has lines of credit totaling $7.4 million with two large financial institutions. The FHLB borrowing requires us to pledge mortgage loans as collateral, and the lines of credit require us to pledge brokered CDs or US Government Agency securities. At December 31, 2012, we had no Federal Home Loan Bank advances outstanding or borrowings on the lines of credit. The rates on the borrowing lines will be determined at the time of an advance.

Note 7. Commitments and Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Credit Risk

 

In the normal course of business, the Bank has various outstanding commitments and contingent liabilities that are not reflected in the accompanying financial statements. Loan commitments and lines of credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition to the contract. Mortgage loan commitments generally have fixed interest rates, fixed expiration dates, and may require payment of a fee. Other loan commitments generally have fixed interest rates. Lines of credit generally have variable interest rates. Such lines do not represent future cash requirements because it is unlikely that all customers will draw upon their lines in full at any time. Letters of credit are commitments issued to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party.

 

The Bank’s maximum exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the customer is the contractual amount of the credit commitment. Loan commitments, lines of credit, and letters of credit are made on the same terms, including collateral, as outstanding loans. Management is not aware of any accounting loss to be incurred by funding these loan commitments.

 

The Bank had outstanding firm commitments to originate, fund, or purchase loans as follows:

 

   December 31,
2012
   March 31,
2012
 
           
Mortgage loan commitments – fixed rate  $883,000   $1,077,534 
Mortgage loan commitments – variable rate   7,355    3,546 
Unused equity lines of credit (variable rate)   2,539,028    2,331,748 
Commercial and consumer lines of credit   315,624    456,995 
Standby letters of credit   555,455    675,023 
Total  $4,300,462   $4,544,846 

 

Note 8. Fair Value Measurements

 

Accounting guidance defines fair value to be 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. These standards have also established a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements based upon the inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability.

 

·Level 1 — Valuation is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
·Level 2 — Valuation is determined from quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active or by model-based techniques in which all significant inputs are observable in the market.
·Level 3 — Valuation is derived from model-based techniques in which at least one significant input is unobservable and based on the Bank’s own estimates about the assumptions that market participants would use to value the asset or liability.

Investment securities available-for-sale are the only financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis. As of December 31, 2012 and March 31, 2012, the fair values were measured using the following methodologies:

  

   December 31, 2012 
    Level 1    Level 2    Level 3    Total 
Investment securities available-for-sale:

Collateralized mortgage obligations (Agency)   1,258,351    9,939,807    988,908    12,187,066 
   $10,745,099   $41,655,330   $988,908   $53,389,337 

  

The following table summarizes activity in securities valued using Level 3 inputs during the nine months ended December 31, 2012:

 

   December 31,
2012
 
     
Balance at beginning of the period  $988,908 
Purchases   585,428 
Sales   0 
Paydowns   0 
Transfers in and/or out of Level 3   (988,908)
Balance at the end of the period  $585,428 

 

The two securities included in the table above as transferred out of Level 3 were newly issued for the quarter ended March 31, 2012, and were therefore not yet valued by the third party valuation service. The securities were seasoned enough for the third party valuation service to provide fair values for the quarter ended June 30, 2012, and were transferred out of Level 3 at that time.

 

The Bank measures its foreclosed real estate on a nonrecurring basis at fair value less estimated cost to sell. Cost to sell the real estate is based on standard market factors. The Bank has categorized its foreclosed real estate as Level 3. During the nine months ended December 31, 2012, the bank had one 1-4 single family mortgage loan which was reclassified as foreclosed real estate in the amount of $57,000.

 

21
 

 

The Bank does not measure the fair value of its other financial assets or liabilities on a recurring basis. The estimated fair values of these financial instruments that are reported at amortized cost in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, segregated by the level of the valuation inputs within the fair value hierarchy utilized to measure fair value, are as follows:

Critical Accounting Policies

 

We consider accounting policies involving significant judgments and assumptions by management that have, or could have, a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets or on income to be critical accounting policies. The following represent our critical accounting policies:

 

Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses is the amount estimated by management as necessary to cover losses inherent in the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. The allowance is established through the provision for loan losses, which is charged to income. Determining the amount of the allowance for loan losses necessarily involves a high degree of judgment. Among the material estimates required to establish the allowance are: loss exposure at default, the amount and timing of future cash flows on impacted loans, value of collateral, and determination of loss factors to be applied to the various elements of the portfolio. All of these estimates are susceptible to significant change. Management reviews the level of the allowance monthly and establishes the provision for loan losses based upon an evaluation of the portfolio, past loss experience, current economic conditions, and other factors related to the collectability of the loan portfolio. Although we believe that we use the best information available to establish the allowance for loan losses, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if economic or other conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the evaluation. In addition, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, as an integral part of its examination process, periodically reviews our allowance for loan losses and may require us to recognize adjustments to the allowance based on its judgments about information available to it at the time of its examination. A large loss could deplete the allowance and require increased provisions to replenish the allowance, which would adversely affect earnings.

 

Fair Value of Investments. Securities are characterized as available-for-sale or held-to-maturity based on management’s ability and intent regarding such investment at acquisition. On an ongoing basis, management must estimate the fair value of its investment securities based on information and assumptions it deems reliable and reasonable, which may be quoted market prices or if quoted market prices are not available, fair values extrapolated from the quoted prices of similar instruments. Based on this information, an assessment must be made as to whether any decline in the fair value of an investment security should be considered an other-than-temporary impairment and recorded in noninterest revenue as a loss on investments. The determination of such impairment is subject to a variety of factors, including management’s judgment and experience.

Comparison of Financial Condition at December 31, 2012 and March 31, 2012

 

Assets. Total assets decreased $3.5 million, or 2.3%, from $155.2 million at March 31, 2012, to $151.7 million at December 31, 2012 due to a $4.4 million, or 40.7%, decrease in cash and cash equivalents and a $2.4 million, or 2.9%, decrease in net loans receivable, partially offset by a $4.0 million, or 7.6%, increase in investment securities available for sale.

 

Loans. Net loans receivable decreased by $2.4 million, or 2.9%, from $85.0 million at March 31, 2012 to $82.6 million at December 31, 2012, primarily as a result of the net effect of a $2.1 million decrease in mortgages secured by land, $1.6 million decrease in commercial loans, a $426,000 decrease in commercial mortgages, partially offset by a $1.4 million increase in 1-4 single family loans, a $345,000 increase in residential lines of credit and a $171,000 increase in residential construction loans. The decrease in mortgages secured by land was primarily the result of the payoffs of two loans and normal principal reductions. The increase in residential mortgage loans was primarily the result of our increased emphasis on residential mortgage lending.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $4.4 million, or 40.7%, from $10.7 million at March 31, 2012 to $6.4 million at December 31, 2012, due to the reinvestment of excess liquidity into investment securities.

 

Securities. Available-for-sale securities increased by $4.0 million, or 7.6%, from $53.4 million at March 31, 2012 to $57.4 million at December 31, 2012. The net increase in available-for-sale securities is the result of the purchase of $33.0 million of U.S. Government Agency bonds, mortgage backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations, and $3.6 million of Brokered Investment CDs. These purchases were offset by the sale of mortgage backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations and agency securities with proceeds of $17.5 million with $303,000 in gains $17,000 in losses on the sale, and $15.0 million of securities being called, having matured, or repayments. At December 31, 2012, we also held a $228,000 investment in the common stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta.

 

Ground Rents. Our ground rent portfolio decreased by $290,000 to zero at December 31, 2012. The entire ground rent portfolio was sold as of May 1, 2012 at the value recorded at March 31, 2012.

 

Deposits. Total deposits decreased by $3.6 million, or 2.6%, to $136.6 million at December 31, 2012 from $140.2 million at March 31, 2012. Balances of noninterest-bearing deposits decreased by $854,000, or 13.0%, to $5.7 million at December 31, 2012, from $6.6 million at March 31, 2012. NOW and money market deposit accounts increased by $642,000, or 8.1%, to $8.5 million at December 31, 2012 from $7.9 million at March 31, 2012. Savings deposits increased $1.6 million, or 6.9%, from $22.8 million at March 31, 2012, to $24.3 million at December 31, 2012, and certificates of deposits decreased by $4.9 million, or 4.8%, from $102.9 million at March 31, 2012, to $98.0 million at December 31, 2012.

 

Borrowings. We had no borrowings at December 31, 2012, or March 31, 2012.

 

Shareholders’ Equity. Shareholders’ equity increased by $186,000, or 1.3%, from $14.2 million at March 31, 2012 to $14.3 million at December 31, 2012 due to net income of $206,000 added to retained earnings, partially offset by a decrease of $62,000 in accumulated other comprehensive income due to a reduction in net unrealized gains on available-for-sale securities for the nine month period ended December 31, 2012.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended December 31, 2012, and 2011

 

Overview. Net income was $72,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2012, compared to $18,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2011. The increase in net income for the current quarter was primarily the result of an increase in noninterest revenue resulting from the gain on the sale of investment securities and reductions to noninterest expense. These increases to income were partially offset by a decrease in net interest income.

 

Net Interest Income. Net interest income decreased by $68,000 to $874,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2012, as compared to $942,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2011, due to a decrease in the yield on earning assets, partially offset by an increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets and a decrease in the cost of funds for deposits. Our interest rate spread was 2.23% for the three months ended December 31, 2012, compared to 2.40% for the three months ended December 31, 2011, and our net interest margin decreased by 19 basis points to 2.35% for the three months ended December 31, 2012, from 2.54% for the three months ended December 31, 2011.

 

Interest on loans decreased by $99,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2012, as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2011. The average balance of loans decreased by $216,000 to $83.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2012, from $83.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2011. The average yield on loans decreased from 5.57% for the three months ended December 31, 2011 to 5.13% for the three months ended December 31, 2012.

 

Interest on securities available-for-sale decreased by $76,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2012, as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2011, due to a 60 basis point decrease in the average yield. The decrease was partially offset by an increase in average balances of $1.9 million from the investment of excess liquidity.

 

Interest income on interest-bearing deposits was unchanged at $5,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2012, as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2011, as a result of a $324,000 decrease in average balances offset by a two basis point increase in the average yield.

 

Interest expense on total deposits decreased $110,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2012, from $496,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2011 to $386,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2012, due to a 33 basis point decrease in the average cost of interest-bearing deposits partially offset by a $484,000 increase in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits. Interest on certificates of deposits decreased $106,000 to $371,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2012, as a result of the 38 basis point decrease in average cost of time deposits and a decrease in average balances of $2.3 million. Interest on savings deposits decreased by $2,000 to $9,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2012, as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2011, due to a decrease in the average cost of savings deposits of 5 basis points partially offset by an increase in average balances of $2.3 million. Interest on NOW and money market deposit accounts decreased by $2,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2012, due to a decrease of 14 basis points in the average cost of NOW and money market deposit accounts partially offset by an increase in average balances of $498,000.

Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses. We maintain an allowance at a level necessary to absorb management’s best estimate of probable loan losses in the portfolio. Management considers, among other factors, historical loss experience, type and amount of loans, borrower concentrations, and current conditions of the economy. In addition, the allowance considers the level of loans which management monitors as a result of inconsistent repayment patterns. Management has identified commercial real estate loans as an area for expected increased lending. Such loans carry a higher degree of credit risk than our historical single-family lending.

 

Our provision for loan losses decreased $29,000 to $61,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2012 from $90,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2011. At December 31, 2012, the allowance for loan losses was $902,000, or 1.08% of total loans compared to $837,000 or 0.98% of total loans at March 31, 2012, and $776,000, or 0.91% of total loans at December 31, 2011. We had balances of $426,000 in 1-4 single family residential mortgage nonaccrual loans at December 31, 2012, compared to $288,000 of nonaccrual 1-4 single family loans at March 31, 2012, and $216,000 of 1-4 single family loans and $8,000 of consumer nonaccrual loans at December 31, 2011.

 

Management also reviews individual loans for which full collectability may not be reasonably assured and considers, among other matters, the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral. This evaluation is ongoing and results in variations in our provision for loan losses.

 

We had no recoveries and $12,000 in 1-4 single family mortgage charge-offs during the three months ended December 31, 2012, compared to no loan recoveries and $74,000 loan charge-offs during the three months ended December 31, 2011.

 

Although management utilizes its best judgment in providing for losses, there can be no assurance that they will not have to increase the allowance for loan losses in subsequent periods. Management will continue to monitor the allowance for loan losses and make additional provisions to the allowance as appropriate.

At December 31, 2012, Madison had two 1-4 single family loans totaling $382,000 classified as troubled debt restructurings “TDRs”, which received rate modifications to current market rates. These loans are in accrual status and in compliance with their modified terms, and therefore, not included in the nonperforming ratio above. At December 31, 2011, one of these loans was classified as a TDR in the amount of $384,000. For the period ended December 31, 2012, the individual impairment recorded against this loan was $60,000 compared to $50,000 at December 31, 2011.

 

Noninterest Revenue. Noninterest revenue increased by $76,000, or 77.81%, for the three months ended December 31, 2012, to $174,000 as compared to $98,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2011. The increase during the period was primarily due to increases of $72,000 in gains on the sale of investment securities.

 

Noninterest Expenses. Noninterest expense decreased by $17,000, or 1.84%, to $915,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2012 as compared to $932,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2011, primarily due to decreases in salaries and employee benefits partially offset by increases in professional services.

 

Income Tax Expense. For the three months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, we incurred no income tax expense. At March 31, 2012, we had a net operating loss carry-forward totaling approximately $268,000, which expires in 2030 and 2031. We also had a capital loss carry-forward of $566,000, which expires in 2014. We have established a valuation allowance to reflect uncertainty as to our ability to realize our deferred tax asset. See Note 12 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements for March 31, 2012, filed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2012.

Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended December 31, 2012, and 2011

 

Overview. Net income was $206,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2012, compared to $22,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2011. The increase in net income for the current period was primarily the result of increases in noninterest revenue resulting from the gain on the sale of investment securities and a gain on the sale of a portion of real estate owned by the Bank, and a decrease in noninterest expense. These increases to income were only partially offset by a decrease in net interest income, and an increase in the provision for loan losses.

 

Net Interest Income. Net interest income decreased by $161,000 to $2.7 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2012, as compared to $2.9 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2011, due to decreases in the yield and in the average balance of interest-earning assets, partially offset by decreases in the cost of funds and in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits. Our interest rate spread was 2.33% for the nine months ended December 31, 2012, compared to 2.45% for the nine months ended December 31, 2011, and our net interest margin decreased by 12 basis points to 2.46% for the nine months ended December 31, 2012, from 2.58% for the nine months ended December 31, 2011.

 

Interest on loans decreased by $251,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2012, as compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2011. The average balance of loans decreased by $1.5 million to $82.5 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2012, from $84.0 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2011. The average yield on loans decreased from 5.62% for the nine months ended December 31, 2011 to 5.34% for the nine months ended December 31, 2012.

 

Interest on securities available-for-sale decreased by $181,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2012, as compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2011, due to a 57 basis point decrease in the average yield. The decrease was partially offset by an increase in average balances of $3.9 million from the investment of excess liquidity.

 

Interest income on interest-bearing deposits was $17,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2012, as compared to $20,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2011, as a result of a $3.0 million decrease in average balances partially offset by an eight basis point increase in the average yield.

 

Interest expense on total deposits decreased $289,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2012, from $1.5 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2011 to $1.2 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2012, due to a 27 basis point decrease in the average cost of interest-bearing deposits and a $2.0 million decrease in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits. Interest on certificates of deposits decreased $272,000 to $1.2 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2012, as a result of the 28 basis point decrease in average cost of time deposits and a decrease in average balances of $4.4 million. Interest on savings deposits decreased by $9,000 to $27,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2012, as compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2011, due to a decrease in the average cost of savings accounts of 7 basis points partially offset by an increase in average balances of $1.9 million. Interest on NOW and money market deposit accounts decreased by $8,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2012, due to a decrease in the cost of NOW and money market deposit accounts of 15 basis points partially offset by an increase of $436,000 in average balances of NOW and money market deposit accounts.

Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses. Our provision for loan losses increased $19,000 to $230,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2012 from $211,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2011. At December 31, 2012, the allowance for loan losses was $902,000, or 1.08% of total loans, compared to $837,063 or 0.98% of total loans at March 31, 2012, and $776,000, or 0.91% of total loans at December 31, 2011. We had balances of $426,000 in 1-4 single family residential mortgage nonaccrual loans at December 31, 2012, compared to $288,000 of nonaccrual 1-4 single family residential mortgage loans and an additional $607,000 1-4 single family residential mortgages which were 90 days delinquent and still accruing at March 31, 2012; and $216,000 in 1-4 single family residential mortgage nonaccrual loans and $8,000 of consumer nonaccrual loans at December 31, 2011. One loan was transferred to foreclosed real estate in the nine months ended December 31, 2012, in the amount of $57,000. During the nine months ended December 31, 2011, one foreclosed real estate property, which had been previously written down by $174,000, was written down by an additional $10,000 and then sold at a loss of $10,000. Net proceeds from the foreclosed real estate sale were $414,000.

 

Management also reviews individual loans for which full collectability may not be reasonably assured and considers, among other matters, the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral. This evaluation is ongoing and results in variations in our provision for loan losses.

 

We had $236 in commercial loan recoveries and charge-offs of $75,712 in 1-4 single family mortgage and $89,500 in mortgage land loans during the nine months ended December 31, 2012, compared to $3,000 in recoveries and $74,000 in charge-offs during the nine months ended December 31, 2011.

 

Although management utilizes its best judgment in providing for losses, there can be no assurance that they will not have to increase the allowance for loan losses in subsequent periods. Management will continue to monitor the allowance for loan losses and make additional provisions to the allowance as appropriate.

Noninterest Revenue. Noninterest revenue increased by $273,000, or 121.35%, for the nine months ended December 31, 2012, to $499,000 as compared to $225,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2011. The increase during the period was primarily due to an increase of $194,000 in gains on the sale of investment securities and $71,000 in other noninterest revenue related to the sale of real estate.

Noninterest Expenses. Noninterest expense decreased by $92,000 or 3.21%, to $2.8 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2012 as compared to noninterest expense of $2.9 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2011, primarily due to decreases in salaries and employee benefits, occupancy and equipment expense and regulatory assessments. The decrease in salaries and employee benefits during the period was primarily due to the retirement of one director and reduction in staff of one part-time employee.

 

Income Tax Expense. For the nine months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, we incurred no income tax expense. At March 31, 2012, we had a net operating loss carry-forward totaling approximately $268,000, which expires in 2030 and 2031. We also had a capital loss carry-forward of approximately $566,000, which expires in 2014. We have established a valuation allowance to reflect uncertainty as to our ability to realize our deferred tax asset. See Note 12 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements for March 31, 2012, filed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Liquidity is the ability to meet current and future financial obligations of a short-term nature. Our primary sources of funds available to meet short-term liquidity needs consist of deposit inflows, loan repayments, and maturities and sales of investment securities. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and securities are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions, and competition. We regularly adjust our investments in liquid assets available to meet short-term liquidity needs based upon our assessment of (i) expected loan demand, (ii) expected deposit flows, (iii) yields available on interest-earning deposits and securities, and (iv) the objectives of our asset/liability management policy. We do not have long-term debt or other financial obligations that would create long-term liquidity concerns.

 

Our most liquid assets are cash and cash equivalents and interest-bearing deposits. The level of these assets depends on our operating, financing, lending, and investing activities during any given period. At December 31, 2012, cash and cash equivalents totaled $6.4 million. Securities classified as available-for-sale amounted to $57.4 million. Our liquidity has decreased slightly as we have continued to decrease interest rates on deposits. In addition, at December 31, 2012, the Bank had the ability to borrow a total of approximately $30.9 million from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta, and the Bank has lines of credit totaling $7.4 million with two large financial institutions. At December 31, 2012, we had no Federal Home Loan Bank advances outstanding or borrowings on the lines of credit.

 

At December 31, 2012, we had $4.3 million in commitments to extend credit outstanding. Certificates of deposit due within one year of December 31, 2012, totaled $48.5 million, or 49.5% of certificates of deposit. We believe the large percentage of certificates of deposit that mature within one year reflects customers’ hesitancy to invest their funds for longer periods due to the current low interest rate environment and local competitive pressures. If these maturing deposits do not remain with us, we will be required to seek other sources of funds, including other certificates of deposit and borrowings. Depending on market conditions, we may be required to pay higher rates on such deposits or other borrowings than we currently pay on the certificates of deposit due on or before December 31, 2013. We believe, however, based on past experience that a significant portion of our certificates of deposit will remain with us. We have the ability to attract and retain deposits by adjusting the interest rates offered.
