1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

Fraternity Community Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated on October 12, 2010 to serve as the holding company for Fraternity Federal Savings and Loan Association (the “Bank”), a federally chartered savings bank. On March 31, 2011, in accordance with a Plan of Conversion adopted by its Board of Directors and approved by its members, the Bank converted from a federal mutual savings bank to a federal stock savings bank and became the wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The conversion was accomplished through the sale and issuance of 1,587,000 shares of common stock at a price of $10.00 per share, through which the Company received proceeds of approximately $14,968,600, net of offering expenses of approximately $901,400. In connection with the conversion, the Bank’s Board of Directors adopted an employee stock ownership plan (the “ESOP”) which subscribed for 8% of the sum of the number of shares, or 126,960 shares of common stock sold in the offering. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

In accordance with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the “OCC”) regulations, 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.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented have been included. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2012, or any other period. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. Certain amounts from prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation.

Nature of Operations

The Bank provides a full range of banking services to individuals and businesses through its main office and three branches in the Baltimore metropolitan area. Its primary deposit products are certificates of deposit and demand, savings, NOW, and money market accounts. Its primary lending products are consumer loans and real estate mortgages.

Table of Contents

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Earnings per Common Share

Basic earnings per share amounts are based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period and the net income applicable to common stockholders. Weighted average shares excludes unallocated ESOP shares. The Company has no dilutive potential common shares for the three or nine month periods ended September 30, 2012 or 2011.

Declines in the fair value of investment securities below their cost that are deemed to be other than temporary are reflected in earnings as realized losses to the extent the impairment is related to credit losses. The amount of the impairment related to other factors is recognized in other comprehensive income. In estimating other-than-temporary impairment losses, management considers, among other things, (i) the length

Table of Contents

of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (ii) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and (iii) the intent and ability of the Bank to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in cost.

Furthermore, as of September 30, 2012, management does not have the intent to sell any of the securities classified as available-for-sale in the table above and believes that it is more likely than not that the Bank will not have to sell any such securities before a recovery of cost. The unrealized losses are largely due to increases in market interest rates over the yields available at the time the underlying securities were purchased. The fair value is expected to recover as the securities approach their maturity date or repricing date or if market yields for such investments decline. Management does not believe any of the securities are impaired due to reasons of credit quality. Accordingly, as of September 30, 2012, management believes the impairments detailed in the table above are temporary and no impairment loss has been realized in the Bank’s consolidated income statement.

Management segregates its loan portfolio into portfolio segments which is defined as the level at which the Company develops and documents a systematic method for determining its allowance for loan losses. The portfolio segments are segregated based on loan types and the underlying risk factors present in each loan type. These risk factors are periodically reviewed by management and revised as deemed appropriate. The Company’s loan portfolio is segregated into the following portfolio segments:

Owner Occupied One-To-Four Family Residential Loans. This portfolio segment consists of the origination of first mortgage loans and closed end home equity second mortgage loans secured by one-to-four family residential properties located in our market area. The Company offers both fixed and adjustable rate products on properties located in the Company’s primary market area. These loans are generally for terms of 15, 20 and 30 years amortized on a monthly basis. The Company generally establishes a maximum loan-to-value ratio and requires private mortgage insurance if that ratio is exceeded. Repayment of these loans is

primarily dependent on the personal income of the borrowers, which can be impacted by economic conditions in their market areas, such as employment levels. Repayment can also be impacted by changes in property values on residential properties. Risk is mitigated by the fact that the loans are of smaller individual amounts and spread over a large number of borrowers.

Non Owner Occupied One-To-Four Family Real Estate Loans. Loans secured by investment properties represent a unique credit risk to us and, as a result, we adhere to special underwriting guidelines. Of primary concern in non-owner occupied real estate lending is the consistency of rental income of the property. Payments on loans secured by rental properties often depend on the maintenance of the property and the payment of rent by its tenants. Payments on loans secured by rental properties often depend on successful operation and management of the properties. As a result, repayment of such loans may be subject to adverse conditions in the real estate market or the economy. We generally require collateral on these loans to be a first mortgage along with an assignment of rents and leases, although we might accept a second mortgage where the combined loan-to-value ratio is low.

Home Equity Lines of Credit. This portfolio segment consists primarily of open end, second mortgage loans secured by one–to-four family residential properties. Repayment of these loans is primarily dependent on the personal income of the borrowers, which can be impacted by economic conditions in their market areas, such as employment levels. Repayment can also be impacted by changes in property values on residential properties. Risk is mitigated by the fact that the loans are of smaller individual amounts and spread over a large number of borrowers.

Commercial Real Estate Loans. This portfolio segment consists primarily of loans secured by commercial real estate. Loans secured by commercial real estate generally may have larger balances and more risk of default than one-to-four family mortgage loans. The increased risk is the result of several factors, including the concentration of principal in a limited number of loans and borrowers, the impact of local and general economic conditions on the borrower’s ability to repay the loan, and the increased difficulty of evaluating and monitoring these types of loans.

Residential Construction Loans. This portfolio includes construction loans to individuals and builders, primarily for the construction of residential properties. Construction financing generally involves greater risk than long-term financing on improved, owner-occupied real estate. Our portfolio consists of both construction/permanent loans to individuals for their principal residence as well as speculative construction loans to builders. Construction loans are underwritten on the basis of the estimated value of the property as completed. For our construction/permanent loans to individuals for their principal residence, repayment is primarily dependent on the personal income of the borrowers, which can be impacted by economic conditions in their market areas, such as employment levels. Repayment can also be impacted by changes in property values on residential properties. For our speculative construction loans to builders, repayment is primarily dependent on the cashflows of the builder and the success of the project. These loans are closely monitored by on-site inspections and are considered to have higher risks than other real estate loans due to their ultimate repayment being sensitive to interest rate changes, governmental regulation of real property, general economic conditions and the availability of long term financing.

Land. This portfolio consists primarily of first mortgage loans on developed residential land. Land loans have a higher level of risk than loans for the purchase of existing homes since collateral values can only be estimated at the time the loan is approved.

Consumer Loans. This portfolio segment includes small balance unsecured loans to individuals, automobile loans and deposit account loans. Consumer loans are generally originated at higher interest rates than residential mortgage loans because of their higher risk. Collections are highly dependent on the borrower’s continuing financial stability, and thus are more likely to be adversely affected by job loss, divorce, illness or personal bankruptcy. In the case where collateral may be present, repossessed collateral for a defaulted loan may not provide an adequate source of repayment as a result of damage, loss or depreciation.

Commercial Loans. This portfolio segment consists of unsecured lines of credit and closed end loans to business owners that have personal guarantees. These loans generally have higher interest rates and shorter terms than one- to- four family residential loans. These loans have a higher level of risk than one- to- four family residential loans. The increased risk is due to the increased difficulty of monitoring and higher risk of default since their repayment generally depends on the successful operation of the borrower’s business.

The balance of impaired loans was $4,927,398 and $4,101,788 as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. We consider an impaired loan to be any loan which is a troubled debt restructuring or any loan on nonaccrual status.

Non-Performing/Past Due Loans - Loans are placed on non-accrual status when, in management’s opinion, the borrower may be unable to meet payment obligations, which typically occurs when principal or interest payments are more than 90 days past due. Non-accrual loans totaled $4,666,653 and $3,838,051 at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. There were no accruing loans that were more than 90 days past due at September 30, 2012 or December 31, 2011.

Management has an established methodology to determine the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses that assesses the risks and losses inherent in the loan portfolio. For purposes of determining the allowance for loan losses, we have segmented our loan portfolio by product type. Our loan segments are owner occupied one-to-four family residential, non owner occupied one-to-four family residential, home equity lines of credit (“HELOC”), commercial real estate, residential construction, land, consumer and commercial.

To establish the allowance for loan losses, loans are pooled by portfolio class and an historical loss percentage is applied to each class. The historical loss percentage is based upon a rolling 12 month history. This rolling history is utilized so that we have the most current and relevant charge-off trend data. These charge-offs are segregated by loan segment and compared to their respective loan segment average balances for the same period in order to calculate the charge-off percentage. That calculation determines the required allowance for loan loss level. The Company then applies additional loss multipliers to the different segments of loans to reflect various environmental factors. For individually evaluated loans (impaired loans), we do additional analyses to determine the impairment. Management applies judgment to develop its own view of loss probability within that range, using external and internal parameters with the objective of establishing an allowance for loss inherent within these portfolios as of the reporting date.

The Bank’s policies, consistent with regulatory guidelines, provide for the classification of loans and other assets that are considered to be of lesser quality as substandard, doubtful, or loss assets. An asset is considered substandard if it is inadequately protected by the net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Substandard assets include those assets characterized by the distinct possibility that we will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Assets classified as doubtful have all of the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. Assets (or portions of assets) classified as loss are those considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as assets is not warranted. Assets that do not expose us to risk sufficient enough to warrant classification in one of the aforementioned categories, but which possess potential weaknesses that deserve close attention, are required to be designated as special mention.

Modifications of terms for our loans and their inclusion as troubled debt restructurings are based on individual facts and circumstances. Loan modifications that are included as troubled debt restructurings may involve either an increase or reduction of the interest rate, extension of the term of the loan, or deferral or forgiveness of principal or interest payments. As of September 30, 2012 there are seven loans totaling $3,558,561 classified as troubled debt restructurings.

Loans may be periodically modified in a troubled debt restructuring (TDR), where the Company will make concessions to a borrower having financial difficulty to help the borrower remain current on the loan and/or to avoid foreclosure. When we modify loans in a TDR, we evaluate any possible impairment similar to other impaired loans. If we determine that the value of the modified loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan, impairment is generally recognized through a charge-off through the allowance, however, if a specific reserve has been established, impairment is recognized through the provision for loan losses. At September 30, 2012, we had seven loans that were restructured totaling $3,558,561. Five loans, totaling $3,217,197 were secured by owner-occupied one-to-four family residential properties, one loan totaling $110,500 is secured by a residential lot, and one loan totaling $230,864 is a home equity line of credit. At December 31, 2011, we had five loans totaling $1,562,084 that were restructured. Four loans, totaling $1,447,084 were secured by owner-occupied one-to-four family residential properties, and one loan totaling $115,000 was secured by a residential lot.

The following table is a summary of impaired loans that were modified due to a TDR by class for the three and nine months ending September 30, 2012. The pre-modification and post-modification outstanding recorded investments disclosed in the table below represent the loan carrying amounts immediately prior to the modification and the carrying amounts immediately after the modification:

4. EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN

In connection with the conversion to stock form, the Company established an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) for the exclusive benefit of eligible employees. The ESOP borrowed funds from the Company in an amount sufficient to purchase 126,960 shares, or 8% of the Common Stock issued in the offering. The shares were acquired at a price of $10.00 per share.

 

27


Table of Contents

The loan is secured by the shares purchased and will be repaid by the ESOP with funds from contributions made by the Bank and dividends received by the ESOP, with funds from any contributions on ESOP assets. Contributions will be applied to repay interest on the loan first and the remainder will be applied to principal. The loan is expected to be repaid over a period of 12 years.

Shares purchased with the loan proceeds are held in a suspense account for allocation among participants as the loan is repaid. Contributions to the ESOP and shares released from the suspense account are allocated among participants in proportion to their compensation, relative to total compensation, of all active participants. Participants will vest their accrued benefits under the employee stock ownership plan at the rate of 33.33% per year beginning in year two. Vesting is accelerated upon retirement, death or disability of the participant, or a change in control of the Bank. Forfeitures will be reallocated to remaining plan participants. Benefits may be payable upon retirement, death, disability, separation of service, or termination of the ESOP.

The debt of the ESOP, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, is eliminated in consolidation and the shares pledged as collateral are reported as unearned ESOP shares in the consolidated balance sheet. Contributions to the ESOP shall be sufficient to pay principal and interest currently due under the loan agreement. As shares are committed to be released from collateral, the Company reports compensation expense equal to the average market price of the shares for the respective period, and the shares become outstanding for earnings per share computations. Dividends on allocated ESOP shares are recorded as a reduction of debt and accrued interest. ESOP compensation expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 was $83,926 and $77,208, respectively.

A summary of ESOP shares at September 30, 2012 is as follows:

5. REGULATORY MATTERS

The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by its primary federal regulator, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC). Failure to meet the minimum regulatory capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possible additional discretionary actions by regulators that if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Bank and the consolidated financial statements. Under the regulatory capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines involving quantitative measures of the Bank’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank’s capital amounts and classification under the prompt corrective action guidelines are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of: total risk-based capital and Tier I capital to risk-weighted assets (as defined in the regulations), Tier I capital to adjusted total assets (as defined), and tangible capital to adjusted total assets (as defined).

 

28


Table of Contents

As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 (the most recent notification from the OCC), the Bank was categorized as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. Nothing has come to management’s attention since the institution’s most recent notification of being classified as “well capitalized” that would cause such classification to change. The following table details the Bank’s capital position:

On May 24, 2012, the Company authorized the repurchase of up to 158,700 shares of its common stock. Repurchases, if any, by the Company pursuant to this authorization are expected to enable the Company to repurchase its shares at an attractive price, and to provide a source of liquidity for the Company’s shares. As of September 30, 2012, there have been 50,400 shares repurchased by the Company, for an aggregate expenditure totaling approximately $613,111, at an average price of $12.16.

6. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted FASB guidance on Fair Value Measurements which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This guidance applies whenever other standards require (or permit) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value but does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances. In this standard, the FASB clarifies the principle that fair value should be based on the assumptions market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. In support of this principle, the guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to develop those assumptions. The fair value hierarchy is as follows:

Level 1 Inputs - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

 

29


Table of Contents

Level 2 Inputs - Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These might include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.

Level 3 Inputs - Unobservable inputs for determining the fair values of assets or liabilities that reflect an entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities.

The following table presents the Bank’s assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

Securities classified as available-for-sale are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 Inputs. For these securities, the Bank obtains fair values from an external pricing service or bid quotations received from securities dealers. The observable data may include dealer quotes, cash flows, U.S. Treasury yield curve, trading levels, credit information, and the terms and conditions of the security, among other things.

Financial Instruments Measured on a Nonrecurring Basis

The Bank may be required, from time to time, to measure certain other financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These adjustments to fair value usually result from application of lower-of-cost-or-market accounting or write-downs of individual assets.

For assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the following table provides the level of valuation assumptions used to determine each adjustment and the carrying value of the assets:

Loans for which it is probable that the Bank will not collect all principal and interest due according to contractual terms are measured for impairment in accordance with FASB guidance. Allowable methods for estimating fair value include using the fair value of the collateral for collateral dependent loans or, where a loan is determined not to be collateral dependent, using the discounted cash flow method. In our determination of fair value, we have categorized both methods of valuation as estimates based on Level 2 inputs.

 

31


Table of Contents

If the impaired loan is identified as collateral dependent, then the fair value method measuring the amount of impairment is utilized. This method requires obtaining a current independent appraisal or utilizing some other method of valuation for the collateral and applying a discount factor to the value based on our loan review policy and procedures.

If the impaired loan is determined not to be collateral dependent, then the discounted cash flow method is used. This method requires the impaired loan to be recorded at the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate. The effective interest rate of a loan is the contractual interest rate adjusted for any net deferred loan fees or costs, premiums, or discounts existing at origination or acquisition of the loan.

Other Real Estate Owned

We record our other real estate owned at the lower of cost or estimated fair value less estimated selling costs. Estimated fair value is generally based upon an independent appraisal of the collateral. We consider these collateral values to be estimated using Level 2 inputs.

The fair value of residential loans was calculated by discounting anticipated cash flows based on weighted-average contractual maturity, weighted-average coupon, and discount rate.

The fair value for nonperforming loans was determined by reducing the carrying value of nonperforming loans by the Company’s historical loss percentage for each specific loan category.

(d) Federal Home Loan Bank Stock - The fair value of Federal Home Loan Bank stock approximates its carrying value based on the redemption provisions of the Federal Home Loan Bank.

(e) Investments in Bank-Owned Life Insurance - The fair value of the insurance contracts approximates the carrying value.

(f) Deposits and Advances by Borrowers - The fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as noninterest bearing deposits, interest-bearing NOW accounts, money market and statement savings accounts, is

Table of Contents

deemed to be equal to the carrying amounts. The fair value of certificates of deposit is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate for certificates of deposit was estimated using the rate currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

(g) Advances from the FHLB - Fair values are estimated by discounting carrying values using a cash flow approach based on market rates as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

(h) Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments - The Company’s adjustable rate commitments to extend credit move with market rates and are not subject to interest rate risk. The rates and terms of the Company’s fixed rate commitments to extend credit are competitive with others in the various markets in which the Company operates. The fair values of these instruments are immaterial.

(i) Limitations - Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about financial instruments. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Company’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect estimates.

 

8. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

All pending but not yet effective accounting standards updates were evaluated and only those listed below could have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

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 stockholders’ 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 stockholders’ equity was eliminated. ASU 2011-05 became effective for the Company on January 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, the Company’s financial statements now include separate statements of comprehensive income.

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 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 Company on January 1, 2012 and did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

General

Fraternity Community Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) is a Maryland corporation incorporated on October 12, 2010 by Fraternity Federal Savings and Loan Association (the “Bank”) to be its holding company following the Bank’s conversion from the mutual to the stock form of organization (the “Conversion”). The Conversion was completed on March 31, 2011 and also on that date, the Company completed its public stock offering and issued 1,587,000 shares of its common stock for aggregate proceeds of $15,870,000, and net proceeds of $14,968,600. The Company’s business is the ownership of the outstanding capital stock of the Bank. The Company does not own or lease any property but instead uses the premises, equipment and other property of the Bank with payment of appropriate rental fees as required by applicable law and regulations, under the terms of an expense allocation agreement between the Company and the Bank.

Founded in 1913, the Bank is a community-oriented financial institution, dedicated to serving the financial service needs of customers and businesses within its market area, which consists of Baltimore City and Baltimore, Carroll and Howard Counties in Maryland. We offer a variety of deposit products and provide loans secured by real estate located in our market area. Our real estate loans consist primarily of one- to four-family mortgage loans, as well as commercial real estate loans, land loans, home equity lines of credit and residential construction loans. We also offer consumer loans and, to a limited extent, commercial business loans. We currently operate out of our corporate headquarters and main office in Baltimore and full-service branch offices located in Cockeysville, Ellicott City and Hampstead, Maryland. We are subject to extensive regulation, examination and supervision by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, our primary federal regulator, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, our deposit insurer.

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

Table of Contents

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 impaired 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.

Comparison of Financial Condition at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011

Assets. At September 30, 2012, total assets decreased by $5.1 million to $170.2 million at September 30, 2012 from $175.3 million at December 31, 2011. The decrease in assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was due mainly to a $7.5 million decrease in our investment portfolio from $39.3 million at December 31, 2011 to $31.8 million at September 30, 2012, offset, in part, by a $2.4 million increase in cash and cash equivalents from $14.9 million at December 31, 2011 to $17.3 million at September 30, 2012. In addition, loans receivable, net, decreased $2.1 million, from $111.9 million at December 31, 2011 to $109.8 million at September 30, 2012. Other real estate owned increased from $0 at December 31, 2011 to $1.8 million at September 30, 2012.

Loans. Net loans receivable decreased by $2.1 million, or 1.9%, from $111.9 million at December 31, 2011 to $109.8 million at September 30, 2012, primarily as a result of transferring $2.1 million from loans receivable to other real estate owned.

Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents increased by $2.4 million, or 16.2%, from $14.9 million at December 31, 2011 to $17.3 million at September 30, 2012 primarily as a result of a decrease in our available for sale investment portfolio due to sales, principal receipts and a security being called.

Securities. Our available for sale securities decreased by $7.0 million, or 22.3%, from $31.4 million at December 31, 2011 to $24.4 million at September 30, 2012. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 we sold securities totaling $8.5 million, had one security totaling $1.5 million called, purchased securities totaling $7.1 million, and had principal payments of $3.7 million on our securities. Proceeds from the sales of these securities was used to pay off a $2.5 million Federal Home Loan Bank advance. Our held to maturity securities decreased by $487,100, or 6.2%, from $7.8 million at December 31, 2011 to $7.3 million at September 30, 2012.

Deposits. Total deposits decreased by $2.2 million, from $121.2 million at December 31, 2011, to $119.0 million at September 30, 2012, primarily as a result of a decrease in brokered deposits of $1.5 million.

Borrowings. Total borrowings decreased by $2.5 million, or 11.1%, from $22.5 million at December 31, 2011 to $20.0 million at September 30, 2012. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, one borrowing totaling $2.5 million matured and was paid off.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 (unaudited)

Overview. We had a net loss of $91,200 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to a net loss of $7,200 for the three months ended September 30, 2011. The increase in net loss between the periods was primarily due to an increase in our provision for loan and lease losses of $195,500 for the three months ended

September 30, 2012 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2011. Our provision for loan losses were $201,900 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to $6,400 for the three months ended September 30, 2011. This was partially off set by an increase in net interest income of $59,400 or 6.4%. This was mainly due to a large decrease in interest expense, due to the combination of lower average balances of interest bearing liabilities and the fact we were able to take advantage of declining interest rates to reprice maturing certificates of deposit and Federal Home Loan Bank advances at lower rates. Noninterest income decreased by $50,900, or 38.7% from $131,600 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 to $80,700 for the three months ended September 30, 2012. Noninterest expense decreased by $29,200 or 2.7% from $1,087,800 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 to $1,058,600 for the three months ended September 30, 2012. Income tax benefit increased by $73,800, from $28,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 to $101,800 for the three months ended September 30, 2012.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased by $59,400, or 6.4%, from $927,400 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 to $986,700 for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The increase in net interest income is primarily attributable to the combination of lower average balances of interest bearing liabilities and the fact we were able to take advantage of declining interest rates to reprice maturing certificates of deposit and Federal Home Loan Bank advances at lower rates.

Interest on loans receivable, net decreased by $68,400, or 4.7%, from $1.44 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011 to $1.37 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012, due to a 27 basis point decrease in the average yield. The decrease in the average yield on loans was attributable to market rates remaining at an historically low level. The average balance of loans receivable, net increased by $416,400, or .4%, from $109.0 million at September 30, 2011 to $109.4 million at September 30, 2012.

Interest on investment securities available-for-sale decreased by $91,700, or 41.0%, for the three months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2011, as the result of a $4.0 million, or 13.9%, decrease in the average balance of investment securities available-for-sale and a 97 basis point decrease in the average yield. Interest on investment securities held-to-maturity increased by $27,500, or 89.8%, for the three months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2011, as the result of a $1.7 million, or 31.1%, increase in the average balance of investment securities held-to-maturity and a 98 basis point increase in the average yield.

Interest on cash and cash equivalents remained low by historical standards during the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 due to the historically low prevailing market rates during those periods.

During the three months ended September 30, 2012, we were able to reduce interest paid on deposits primarily as the result of time deposits being rolled over at lower rates in response to general declines in market interest rates, lower average balances of these time deposits and decreases in the cost of other deposits due to a decline in market rates. Interest on time deposits decreased by $104,700, or 20.0%, from $524,200 for the three months ended September 30, 2011, to $419,500 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, due to a 37 basis point decrease in the average cost of time deposits and a $3.2 million, or 3.2%, decrease in the average balance of time deposits. Interest on brokered deposits decreased by $21,800, or 85.4%, from $25,500 for the three months ended September 30, 2011, to $3,700 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, as the average balance of brokered deposits decreased from $2.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011 to $328,500 for the three months ended September 30, 2012. Interest on NOW and money market accounts remained stable during the three months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2011, even with a 7.6% increase in the average balance of NOW and money market accounts. Interest on passbook accounts decreased by $8,100, or 36.4%, from $22,200 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 to $14,100 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, due primarily to a 17 basis point decrease in the average cost of passbook accounts. The average balance of passbook accounts decreased during the three months ended September 30, 2012, from $17.3 million as of September 30, 2011 to $16.6 million as of September 30, 2012.

Interest on other interest-bearing liabilities, which consist of Federal Home Loan Bank advances, decreased by $59,000, or 26.2%, for three months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2011, due to a decrease of 93 basis points in the average cost of these other interest-bearing liabilities. At September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we had $20.0 million and $22.5 million, respectively, of Federal Home Loan Bank advances.

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 increased by $195,500 to $201,900 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 from $6,400 for the three months ended September 30, 2011. At September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the allowance for loan losses was $1.4 million, or 1.25% and $1.25 million, or 1.10%, of the total loan portfolio.

Non-accrual loans totaled $4.7 million at September 30, 2012 compared to $3.8 million at December 31, 2011. Net loan charge-offs amounted to $56,900 during the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared to $6,400 during the three months ended September 30, 2011. As of December 31, 2011, non-accrual loans included two land loans totaling $309,000, one speculative construction loan totaling $1.6 million, two home equity lines of credit totaling $93,300, seven owner occupied one-to-four family residential loans totaling $1.4 million and six non-owner occupied one-to-four family residential loans totaling $475,600. As of September 30, 2012, nonaccrual loans included one land loan totaling $110,500, seventeen owner-occupied one-to-four family residential loans totaling $3.9 million, five non-owner-occupied one-to-four family residential loans totaling $367,700 and four home equity lines of credit totaling $330,300. The total increase of $2.0 million in the one-to-four family residential loan category is primarily due to two loans to the same borrower totaling $2.3 million. These loans were classified as troubled debt restructurings during this quarter and a specific reserve of $189,900 was established.

Impaired loans totaled $4.9 million at September 30, 2012 compared to $4.1 million at December 31, 2011. As of December 31, 2011, impaired loans included eight one-to-four family owner-occupied residential loans totaling $1.7 million, six non-owner-occupied one-to-four family residential loans totaling $475,600, two home equity line of credit loans totaling $93,300, two land loans totaling $309,000, and one speculative construction loan totaling $1.6 million. As of September 30, 2012, impaired loans included eighteen one-to-four family owner-occupied residential loans totaling $4.1 million, five non-owner-occupied one-to-four family residential loans totaling $367,700, four home equity line of credit loans totaling $330,300, and one land loan totaling $110,500.

Other real estate owned totaled $1.8 million at September 30, 2012 compared to $0 at December 31, 2011. This was as a result of one speculative construction loan, one speculative land loan and one non-owner-occupied one-to-four family residential loan previously reported as non-accrual loans being foreclosed upon during the year.

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.

Noninterest Income. Total noninterest income decreased by $50,900, or 38.7%, from $131,600 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared to $80,700 for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease of $60,000, or 100.0%, in the gain on sale of investments during the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2011.

Noninterest Expenses. Total noninterest expenses decreased by $29,200, or 2.7%, from $1,087,800 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 to $1,058,600 for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The decrease primarily was attributable to a decrease in salaries and employee benefits.

Income Tax Expense. We recognized an income tax benefit of $101,800 during the three months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to an income tax benefit of $28,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2011.

Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 (unaudited)

Overview. We had net income of $63,300 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to a net loss of $64,200 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The increase in net income between the periods was primarily due to an increase in net interest income of $597,800 or 22.9%. This was due to a large decrease in interest expense, due to the combination of lower average balances of interest bearing liabilities and the fact we were able to take advantage of declining interest rates to reprice maturing certificates of deposit and Federal Home Loan Bank advances at lower rates. This was partially offset by an increase in our provision for loan and lease losses of $313,200, from $67,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 to $380,200 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. Noninterest income increased by $38,200, or 13.1% from $290,600 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 to $328,800 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. Noninterest expense increased by $129,300 or 4.3% from $3.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 to $3.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. Income tax benefit decreased by $66,000, from an income tax benefit of $122,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 to $56,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased by $597,800, or 22.9%, from $2.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 to $3.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The increase in net interest income is primarily attributable to the combination of lower average balances of interest bearing liabilities and the fact we were able to take advantage of declining interest rates to reprice maturing certificates of deposit and Federal Home Loan Bank advances at lower rates.

Interest on loans receivable, net decreased by $84,900, or 1.9%, from $4.37 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 to $4.29 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, due to a 18 basis point decrease in the average yield. The decrease in the average yield on loans was attributable to market rates remaining at an historically low level. The average balance of loans receivable, net increased by $1.5 million, or 1.4%, from $109.2 million at September 30, 2011 to $110.7 million at September 30, 2012.

Interest on investment securities available-for-sale decreased by $160,400, or 23.7%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011, as the result of a $3.7 million, or 11.9%, decrease in the average balance of investment securities available-for-sale and a 39 basis point decrease in the average yield. Interest on investment securities held-to-maturity increased by $150,500, or 491.4%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012, as the result of a $5.7 million, or 303.2% increase in the average balance of investment securities held-to-maturity and a 102 basis point increase in the average yield.

Interest on cash and cash equivalents remained low by historical standards during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 due to the historically low prevailing market rates during those periods.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we were able to reduce interest paid on deposits primarily as the result of time deposits being rolled over at lower rates in response to general declines in market interest rates, lower average balances of these time deposits and decreases in the cost of other deposits due to a decline in market rates. Interest on time deposits decreased by $432,500, or 25.3%, from $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, to $1.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, due to a 44 basis point decrease in the average cost of time deposits and a $6.9 million, or 6.8%, decrease in the average balance of time deposits. Interest on brokered deposits decreased by $61,900, or 82.3%, from $75,200 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, to $13,300 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, as the average balance of brokered deposits decreased from $2.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 to $1.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. Interest on NOW and money market accounts remained stable during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011, even with a 13.7% increase in the average balance of NOW and money market accounts. Interest on passbook accounts decreased by $25,300, or 36.7%, from $69,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 to $43,700 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, due primarily to a 21 basis point decrease in the average cost of passbook accounts. The average balance of passbook accounts increased during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, from $16.6 million as of September 30, 2011 to $16.9 million as of September 30, 2012.

Interest on other interest-bearing liabilities, which consist of Federal Home Loan Bank advances, decreased by $163,100, or 24.4%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011, due to a decrease of 93 basis points in the average cost of these other interest-bearing liabilities. At September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we had $20.0 million and $22.5 million, respectively, of Federal Home Loan Bank advances.

Average Balances and Yields. The following table presents information regarding average balances of assets and liabilities, the total dollar amounts of interest income and dividends from average interest-earning assets, the total dollar amounts of interest expense on average interest-bearing liabilities, and the resulting annualized average yields and costs. The yields and costs for the periods indicated are derived by dividing income or expense by the average balances of assets or liabilities, respectively, for the periods presented. Average balances have been calculated using monthly balances, and non-accrual loans are included in average balances only. Amortization of net deferred loan fees are included in interest income on loans and are insignificant. No tax-equivalent adjustments were made. Nonaccruing loans have been included in the table as loans carrying a zero yield.

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 increased by $313,200 to $380,200 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 from $67,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. At September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the allowance for loan losses was $1.4 million, or 1.25%, and $1.25 million, or 1.10%, of the total loan portfolio.

Non-accrual loans totaled $4.7 million at September 30, 2012 compared to $3.8 million at December 31, 2011. Net loan charge-offs amounted to $235,200 during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to $117,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2011. As of December 31, 2011, non-accrual loans included two land loans totaling $309,000, one speculative construction loan totaling $1.6 million, two home equity lines of credit totaling $93,300, seven owner occupied one-to-four family residential loans totaling $1.4 million and six non-owner occupied one-to-four family residential loans totaling $475,600. As of September 30, 2012, non-accrual loans included one land loan totaling $110,500, seventeen owner-occupied one-to-four family residential loans totaling $3.9 million, five non-owner-occupied one-to-four family residential loans totaling $367,700 and four home equity lines of credit totaling $330,300. The total increase of $2.0 million in the one-to-four family residential loan category is primarily due to two loans to the same borrower totaling $2.3 million. These loans were classified as troubled debt restructurings during this quarter and a specific reserve of $189,900 was established.

Impaired loans totaled $4.9 million at September 30, 2012 compared to $4.1 million at December 31, 2011. As of December 31, 2011, impaired loans included eight one-to-four family owner-occupied residential loans totaling $1.7 million, six non-owner-occupied one-to-four family residential loans totaling $475,600, two home equity line of credit loans totaling $93,300, two land loans totaling $309,000, and one speculative construction loan totaling $1.6 million. As of September 30, 2012, impaired loans included eighteen one-to-four family owner-occupied residential loans totaling $4.1 million, five non-owner-occupied one-to-four family residential loans totaling $367,700, four home equity line of credit loans totaling $330,300, and one land loan totaling $110,500.

Other real estate owned totaled $1.8 million at September 30, 2012 compared to $0 at December 31, 2011. This was as a result of one speculative construction loan, one speculative land loan and one non-owner-occupied one-to-four family residential loan previously reported as non-accrual loans being foreclosed upon during the year.

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.

Noninterest Income. Total noninterest income increased by $38,200, or 13.1%, from $290,600 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to $328,800 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $52,900 in the gain on sale of loans and a decrease of $9,900 in the gain on sale of other real estate owned during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Noninterest Expenses. Total noninterest expenses increased by $129,300, or 4.3%, from $3.02 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 to $3.15 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The increase primarily was attributable to an increase in legal fees and accounting and auditing fees.

Income Tax Expense. We recognized an income tax benefit of $56,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to an income tax benefit of $122,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Liquidity Management. 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. The level of these assets depends on our operating, financing, lending and investing activities during any given period. At September 30, 2012, cash and cash equivalents totaled $17.3 million. Securities classified as available-for-sale, amounting to $24.4 million at September 30, 2012, provides an additional source of liquidity. In addition, at September 30, 2012, we had the

ability to borrow a total of approximately $52.4 million from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta and had $20.0 million in Federal Home Loan Bank advances outstanding. For additional liquidity, if needed, we have a $3.0 million line of credit with another bank, on which we had no outstanding balance at September 30, 2012.

Certificates of deposit due within one year of September 30, 2012 totaled $46.2 million, or 48.7%, 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 long periods due to the recent 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 September 30, 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.

Capital Management. We are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, including a risk-based capital measure. The risk-based capital guidelines include both a definition of capital and a framework for calculating risk-weighted assets by assigning balance sheet assets and off-balance sheet items to broad risk categories. At September 30, 2012, we exceeded all of our regulatory capital requirements and were considered “well capitalized” under regulatory guidelines.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

In the normal course of operations, we engage in a variety of financial transactions that, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, are not recorded in our financial statements. These transactions involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit, interest rate and liquidity risk. Such transactions are used primarily to manage customers’ requests for funding and take the form of loan commitments, unused lines of credit and letters of credit. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we did not engage in any off-balance sheet transactions reasonably likely to have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, management of the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as that term is defined in Rule 13a-5(e). Based on this evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

It should be noted that the design of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures is based in part upon certain reasonable assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no reasonable assurance that any design of disclosure controls and procedures will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote, but the Company’s principal executive and financial officers have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are, in fact, effective at a reasonable assurance level.
