Westbury Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiary
 
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollars in Thousands, except per share data)
 
Note 1.                                 Basis of Presentation

 The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Westbury Bancorp, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Westbury Bank , (the "Bank", and collectively, the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.
 
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 as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements are based on various factors including the current interest rate environment and the general strength of the local economy.  Changes in the overall interest rate environment can significantly affect the Company’s net interest income and the value of its recorded assets and liabilities.  Actual results could differ from those estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements.  Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.  These reclassifications did not result in any changes to previously reported net income or stockholders’ equity.
 
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of December 31, 2013 and September 30, 2013 and the results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods ended December, 2013 and 2012.  All interim amounts have not been audited, and the results of operations for the interim periods herein are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the year.  These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended September 30, 2013 filed as part of Westbury Bancorp, Inc.’s 10-K dated December 23, 2013, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as of September 30, 2013, on December 24, 2013.
 
Note 2.                                 Plan of Conversion and Reorganization and Change in Corporate Form
 
On September 5, 2012, the Board of Directors of WBSB Bancorp, MHC (“MHC”) adopted a plan of conversion and reorganization (“Plan”).  The Plan was approved by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.  The Plan was approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of the total votes eligible to be cast by the voting members of the MHC at a special meeting held on April 1, 2013.  The Plan provided for the reorganization of the MHC from a federally chartered mutual holding company into a  stock holding Company and an offering by the Company of shares of its common stock to eligible depositors of the Bank and the public.  The Company is incorporated under the laws of the State of Maryland and owns all of the outstanding common stock of the Bank. The reorganization was completed with the sale of 5,091,625 shares on April 9, 2013 and shares of the Company's common stock began trading on April 10, 2013.
 
In addition, in conjunction with the reorganization in April 2013, the Company contributed a total of $1,000 (consisting of 50,916 shares of common stock and $491 in cash) to a charitable foundation that the Bank has established.  The foundation was organized as Westbury Bank Charitable Foundation.
 
The costs of reorganization and issuing the common stock were deducted from the sales proceeds of the offering.  The Company recorded $2,574 in reorganization and stock issuance costs as a direct reduction of stockholders' equity in April 2013.

In accordance with federal regulations, at the time of the reorganization, the Company substantially restricted retained earnings by establishing a liquidation account and the Bank established a parallel 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 the reorganization.  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 eligible 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. 

7


The reorganization was accounted for as a change in corporate form with the historic basis of the Bank’s assets, liabilities and equity unchanged as a result.
 
Note 3.                                 Recent Accounting Developments
 
In April 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-02, A Creditor’s Determination of Whether a Restructuring Is a Troubled Debt Restructuring. ASU 2011-02 amends ASC Topic 310, Receivables, by clarifying guidance for creditors in determining whether a concession has been granted and whether a debtor is experiencing financial difficulties. ASU 2011-02 is effective for annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2012 and has been adopted with no impact on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) - Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. ASU 2013-02 amends Topic 220, Comprehensive Income, to require that amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income be reported on the appropriate line item of the statement of operations if the amount being reclassified is required by U.S. GAAP to be included in its entirety in net income. ASU 2013-02 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 31, 2012 and has been adopted in these consolidated financial statements.

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss or a Tax Credit Carrryforward Exists. ASU 2013-11 is intended to clarify the presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss or a tax credit carrryforward exists. This presentation had not been addressed in Topic 740 and there was diversity in reporting practices in those instances. ASU 2013-11 requires an unrecognized tax benefit to be presented as a liability and not netted against a deferred tax asset. ASU 2013-11 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. Adoption by the Company is not expected to have an impact on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Note 4.                                 Earnings Per Share
 
Earnings per common share is computed using the two-class method. Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, including unallocated and committed-to-be-released ESOP shares, during the applicable period. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted-average number of shares determined for the basic earnings per common share computation plus the dilutive effect of stock compensation using the treasury stock method.
 
The following table presents a reconciliation of the number of shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per common share.

Note 5.                                 Employee Stock Ownership Plan
 
Westbury Bank maintains a leveraged employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) that covers all employees meeting certain minimum age and service requirements. The ESOP was established in conjunction with the Company's stock offering completed in April 2013. The loan to fund the acquisition of stock by the ESOP was made by the Company. The Bank makes annual contributions to the ESOP equal to the ESOP's debt service. The ESOP shares initially were pledged as collateral for its debt. As the debt is repaid, shares are released from collateral and allocated to active participants, based on the proportion of debt service paid in the year. The Company accounts for its ESOP in accordance with ASC 718-40. Accordingly, because the debt is intercompany, it is eliminated in consolidation for presentation in these statements. The shares pledged as collateral are reported as unearned ESOP shares in the balance sheet. As shares are committed to be released from collateral, the Company reports compensation expense equal to the current market price of the shares, and the shares become outstanding for EPS computations. During the three months ended December 31, 2013, 6,857 shares, with an average fair value of $13.85 per share, were committed to be released resulting in ESOP compensation expense of $95 for the three months ended December 31, 2013. No ESOP compensation expense was recorded for the three months ended December 31, 2012. The ESOP shares as of December 31, 2013 and September 30, 2013 were as follows:

At December 31, 2013, the investment portfolio included 15 securities available-for-sale which had been in an unrealized loss position for more than twelve months and 151 securities available-for-sale which had been in an unrealized loss position for less than twelve months. These securities are considered to be acceptable credit risks.  Based upon an evaluation of the available evidence, including recent changes in market rates, credit rating information and information obtained from regulatory filings, management believes the decline in fair value for these securities is temporary.  The Company does not have any current requirement to sell and does not intend to sell its investment in the issuer prior to any anticipated recovery in fair value.
 
At September 30, 2013, the investment portfolio included 13 securities available-for-sale which had been in an unrealized loss position for greater than twelve months and 148 securities available-for-sale which had been in an unrealized loss position for less than twelve months.

As part of the on-going monitoring of the credit quality of the Company’s loan portfolio, management categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of the borrowers to service their debt and comply with various terms of their loan agreements.  The Company considers current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information and current economic trends.  Generally, all sizeable credits receive a financial review no less than annually to monitor and adjust, if necessary, the credit’s risk profile.  Credits classified as watch and special mention generally receive a review more frequently than annually.
 
The Company categorizes loans into the following risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt:
 
Pass — A pass asset is well protected by the current worth and paying capacity of the obligor (or guarantors, if any) or by the fair value, less costs to acquire and sell in a timely manner, of any underlying collateral.
 
Watch — A watch asset has potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention.  If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in the Company’s credit position at some future date.  Watch assets are not adversely classified and do not expose the Company to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification.
 
Special Mention — A special mention asset has characteristics of deterioration in quality exhibited by any number of well-defined weaknesses requiring significant corrective action.  The repayment ability of the borrower has not been validated, or has become marginal or weak and the loan may have exhibited some overdue payments or payment extensions and/or renewals.
 

13


Substandard — A substandard asset is an asset with a well-defined weakness that jeopardizes repayment in whole or in part, of the debt.  These credits are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged.  These assets are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will or has sustained some loss of principal and/or interest if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Doubtful — A doubtful asset is an asset that has all the weaknesses inherent in the substandard classification with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable.  These credits have a high probability for loss, yet because certain important and reasonably specific pending factors may work toward the strengthening of the asset, its classification of loss is deferred until its more exact status can be determined.
 
Homogeneous loan types are assessed for credit quality based on the contractual aging status of the loan and payment activity.  In certain cases, based upon payment performance, the loan being related with another commercial type loan or for other reasons, a loan may be categorized into one of the risk categories noted above, unless such loan carries private mortgage insurance (PMI).  Such assessment is completed at the end of each reporting period.
 
The following tables present the risk category of loans evaluated by internal asset classification based on the most recent analysis performed and the contractual aging as of December 31, 2013 and September 30, 2013:

Note 9.                                 Regulatory Capital
 
The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies.  Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Bank’s financial statements.
 
Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve 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 are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.  Prompt corrective action provisions are not applicable to bank holdings companies.
 
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total and Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and Tier 1 capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined).  As of December 31, 2013 and September 30, 2013, the Bank is well capitalized under prompt corrective action regulation.
 
The Bank’s actual capital amounts and ratios and those required by the above regulatory standards are as follows:

Note 10.                          Commitments
 
Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk
 
The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers.  These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.  The contractual amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Company has in particular classes of financial instruments.
 
The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instruments for commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments.  The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.
 
The following instruments were outstanding whose contract amounts represent credit risk:

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend funds to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract.  Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee.  As some such commitments expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.  The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis.  The Company generally extends credit only on a secured basis.  Collateral obtained varies but consists primarily of single family residences.
 

20


Unfunded commitments under lines of credit are commitments for possible future extensions of credit to existing customers.  These lines of credit may be uncollateralized and ultimately may not be drawn upon to the total extent to which the Company is committed.
 
Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party.  Those letters of credit are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements, and, generally, have terms of one year or less.  The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers.  The Company holds collateral supporting those commitments if deemed necessary.  In the event the customer does not perform in accordance with the terms of the agreement with the third party, the Company would be required to fund the commitment.  The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make is represented by the contractual amount shown in the summary above.  If the commitment is funded, the Company would be entitled to seek recovery from the customer.  At December 31, 2013 and September 30, 2013, no amounts have been recorded as liabilities for the Company’s potential obligations under these guarantees.

Commitments to sell loans are commitments to sell single family mortgage loans to investors on the secondary market.
 
Note 11.                          Fair Value Measurements
 
ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants.  ASC Topic 820 requires the use of valuation techniques that are consistent with the market approach, the income approach and/or the cost approach.  Inputs to valuation techniques refer to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.  Inputs may be observable, meaning those that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from independent sources, or unobservable, meaning those that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.  In that regard, ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is as follows:
 
Level 1:  Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.
 
Level 2:  Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
 
Level 3:  Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

A description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy, is set forth below.
 
Securities available-for-sale:  The fair value of the Company’s securities available-for-sale is determined using Level 2 inputs, which are derived from readily available pricing sources and third-party pricing services for comparable instruments.  The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, treasury yield curves, trading levels, credit information and credit terms, among other factors. In certain cases where Level 1 or Level 2 are not available, securities are classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy.
 
Derivatives:  The fair values of the Company’s embedded derivatives related to certain certificates of deposit are determined using inputs that are observable or that can be corroborated by observable market data (such as the S&P 500 Index and the 10- year U.S. Treasury rate) and, therefore, are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy.
 


Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis:  The following table summarizes assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis, segregated by the level of the valuation inputs within the fair value hierarchy utilized to measure fair value as of:

The Company did not have any transfers between Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy during the three months ended December 31, 2013.  The Company’s policy for determining transfers between levels occurs at the end of the reporting period when circumstances in the underlying valuation criteria change and result in a transfer between levels.
 
Assets recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis:  The Company may be required, from time to time, to measure certain instruments at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
 
Impaired loans:  The Company does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis.  The specific reserves for collateral-dependent impaired loans are based on the fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to sell. The fair value of collateral is determined based on appraisals.  In some cases, adjustments were made to the appraised values due to various factors including age of the appraisal, age of comparables included in the appraisal, and known changes in the market and in the collateral.  When significant adjustments were based on unobservable inputs, the resulting fair value measurement has been categorized as a Level 3 measurement.  Impaired loans with a carrying amount of $427 and $1,726 have a valuation allowance of $324 and $537 included in the allowance for loan losses as of December 31, 2013 and September 30, 2013, respectively.
 

22


Foreclosed real estate:  The Company does not record foreclosed real estate owned at a fair value on a recurring basis.  The fair value of foreclosed real estate was determined using Level 3 inputs based on appraisals or broker pricing opinions.  In some cases, adjustments were made to these values due to various factors including the age of the appraisal, age of comparables included in the appraisal, and known changes in the market and in collateral.  Foreclosed real estate is measured at fair value less estimated costs to sell at the date of foreclosure.  Subsequent to foreclosure, additional writedowns may be recorded based on changes to the fair value of the assets.

Mortgage servicing rights:  Mortgage servicing rights (MSRs) do not trade in an active, open market with readily observable prices.  While sales of MSRs do occur, the precise terms and conditions typically are not readily available.  Accordingly, the Company estimates the fair value of MSRs using discounted cash flow models incorporating numerous assumptions from the perspective of market participants including servicing income, servicing costs, market discount rates, prepayments speeds, and default rates.  Due to the nature of the valuation inputs, MSRs are classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.  As of December 31, 2013, mortgage servicing rights with a carrying amount of $2,086 have a valuation allowance of $160 to reflect their fair value of $1,926.  As of September 30, 2013, mortgage servicing rights with a carrying amount of $2,152 have a valuation allowance of $321 to reflect their fair value of $1,831.

Disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, for which it is practicable to estimate that value, is required whether or not recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.  In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques.  Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows.  In that regard, the derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, could not be realized in immediate settlement of the instruments.  Certain financial instruments with a fair value that is not practicable to estimate and all non-financial instruments are excluded from the disclosure requirements.  Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented do not necessarily represent the underlying value of the Company for assets and liabilities not previously described.  The Company, in estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments not described above, used the following methods and assumptions:
 
Cash and cash equivalents:  The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents reported in the consolidated balance sheets approximate those assets’ fair values.
 
Loans:  For variable-rate mortgage loans that re-price frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values.  The fair values for fixed rate residential mortgage loans are based on quoted market prices for similar loans sold in conjunction with sale transactions, adjusted for differences in loan characteristics.  The fair values for commercial real estate loans, rental property mortgage loans, and consumer and other loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses and using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality.
 

23


Loans held for sale:  Fair value of loans held for sale are based on commitments on hand from investors or prevailing market prices.
 
Federal Home Loan Bank stock:  The carrying amount of FHLB stock approximates its fair value based on the redemption provisions of the FHLB.
 
Accrued interest receivable and payable:  The carrying amounts of accrued interest receivable and payable approximate their fair values.
 
Deposits:  The fair value disclosed for interest-bearing and non-interest-bearing checking accounts, savings accounts, and money market accounts are equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts).  The fair values of fixed rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities of the outstanding certificates of deposit.
 
Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank and notes payable:  The fair values of FHLB advances and notes payable are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, based on the Company’s current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.
 
Advance payments by borrowers for property taxes and insurance:  The carrying amounts of the advance payments by borrowers for property taxes and insurance approximate their fair values.
 
Mortgage banking derivatives:  The fair value of commitments to originate mortgage loans held for sale is estimated by comparing the Company’s cost to acquire mortgages and the current price for similar mortgage loans, taking into account the terms of the commitments and the credit worthiness of the counterparties.  The fair value of forward commitments to sell residential mortgage loans is the estimated amount that the Bank would receive or pay to terminate the forward delivery contract at the reporting date based on market prices for similar financial instruments.  The fair value of these derivative financial instruments was not material at December 31, 2013 and September 30, 2013.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
This Quarterly Report contains forward-looking statements, which can be identified by the use of words such as “estimate,” “project,” “believe,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “assume,” “plan,” “seek,” “expect,” “will,” “may,” “should,” “indicate,” “would,” “believe,” “contemplate,” “continue,” “intend,” “target” and words of similar meaning.  These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:
 
statements of our goals, intentions and expectations;
statements regarding our business plans, prospects, growth and operating strategies;
statements regarding the asset quality of our loan and investment portfolios; and
estimates of our risks and future costs and benefits.
 
These forward-looking statements are based on our current beliefs and expectations and are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control.  In addition, these forward-looking statements are subject to assumptions with respect to future business strategies and decisions that are subject to change.  We are under no duty to and do not take any obligation to update any forward-looking statements after the date of this Quarterly Report.
 
The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements:
 
our ability to manage our operations under the current adverse economic conditions nationally and in our market area;
adverse changes in the financial industry, securities, credit and national local real estate markets (including real estate values);
significant increases in our delinquencies and loan losses, including as a result of our inability to resolve classified or non-performing assets, changes in the underlying cash flows of our borrowers, and management’s assumptions in determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses;
credit risks of lending activities, including changes in the level and trend of loan delinquencies and write-offs and in our allowance for loan losses and provision for loan losses;
competition among depository and other financial institutions;
our success in increasing our commercial business, commercial real estate and multi-family lending while improving our asset quality;
our success in introducing new financial products;
our ability to attract and maintain deposits;
changes in interest rates generally, including changes in the relative differences between short term and long term interest rates and in deposit interest rates, that may affect our net interest margin and funding sources;
fluctuations in the demand for loans, which may be affected by the number of unsold homes, land and other properties in our market areas and by declines in the value of real estate in our market area;
changes in consumer spending, borrowing and savings habits;
further declines in the yield on our assets resulting from the current low interest rate environment;
risks related to a high concentration of loans secured by real estate located in our market area;
the results of examinations by our regulators, including the possibility that our regulators may, among other things, require us to increase our reserve for loan losses, write down assets, change our regulatory capital position, limit our ability to borrow funds or maintain or increase deposits, or prohibit us from paying dividends, which could adversely affect our dividends and earnings;
our ability to enter new markets successfully and capitalize on growth opportunities;
changes in consumer spending, borrowing and savings habits;
changes in laws or government regulations or policies affecting financial institutions, including the Dodd-Frank Act, which could result in, among other things, increased deposit insurance premiums and assessments,  regulatory fees and compliance costs, and changes in the level of government support of housing finance;
our ability to manage our operations following increased leverage and risk-based capital requirements due to the implementation of Basel III by our regulators;

26


changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted by the bank regulatory agencies, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board;
changes in our organization, compensation and benefit plans;
risks and costs associated with operating as a publicly traded company;
changes in the financial condition or future prospects of issuers of securities that we own; and
other economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory and operational factors affecting our operations, pricing, products and services.
 
Because of these and a wide variety of other uncertainties, our actual future results may be materially different from the results indicated by these forward-looking statements.

Critical Accounting Policies
 
There are no material changes to the critical accounting policies disclosed in Westbury Bancorp, Inc.’s 10-K, dated December 23, 2013, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 24, 2013.
 

Overview
Westbury Bank (the "Bank") is a federally-chartered savings bank headquartered in West Bend, Wisconsin. Westbury Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") is a Maryland corporation and the savings and loan holding company for Westbury Bank, which was formed in connection with the mutual-to-stock conversion of the Bank's former mutual holding company, WBSB Bancorp, MHC, in 2013.
We provide financial services to individuals, families and businesses through our twelve banking offices located in Washington County, Waukesha County and northern Milwaukee County and two home loan centers from which we originate residential mortgages. We also operate three free-standing ATMs at locations other than our branches, and offer online and mobile banking services, participation in a nationwide ATM network and wealth management services. Although our current operations are not focused in central and southern Milwaukee County, we are affected by conditions in central and southern Milwaukee County because our loan portfolio includes a significant number of loans that are secured by real estate or that have borrowers located in central and southern Milwaukee County. In addition, a number of our customers who reside in Washington or Waukesha Counties are employed in Milwaukee County, and the operations of our commercial customers depend in part on sales of products and services to individuals or other businesses located in Milwaukee County.
Our principal business consists of attracting retail deposits from the general public in our market area and investing those deposits, together with funds generated from operations, and to a lesser extent, borrowings, in one- to four-family residential real estate loans, commercial and multi-family real estate loans, commercial business loans, and, to a lesser extent, construction loans and consumer loans, including home equity lines of credit and automobile loans. Unlike most thrift institutions, a significant majority of our deposits are transaction accounts, which we believe are less susceptible to large-scale withdrawals than certificates of deposit as a result of changes in interest rates, and which we believe have a lower cost of funds over various interest cycles. At December 31, 2013, approximately 80.5% of our deposits were transaction accounts, which we attribute to successful branding initiatives, especially with respect to younger customers. We also purchase investment securities consisting primarily of government-sponsored mortgage-backed securities, government-sponsored debentures, municipal securities and corporate securities.
As a result of the economic downturn in 2008, we experienced an increase in delinquent and classified loans. In response, we have undertaken aggressive initiatives to identify problem assets and to enhance asset quality. These initiatives include increasing provisions to our allowance for loan losses, charging down and writing off non-performing assets, engaging in an intensive review of our loan portfolio and as a result classifying additional loans, limiting the growth of our loan portfolio, and devoting significant resources to developing and implementing enhanced loan underwriting, administration and collections policies and procedures.
The economic downturn coincided with significant changes in our customers’ banking habits, particularly a decrease in the amount of business conducted at physical branches as customers began to rely on internet banking and other technological advances for their day-to-day transactions. Accordingly, in addition to our asset quality improvement initiatives, we have also undertaken aggressive measures to reduce our expenses and allocate resources to best suit our customers’ banking needs. As part of this process, since 2009, we have sold or closed 13 branches, reduced the number of employees, substantially reduced other non-interest expenses (excluding non-recurring losses from the sale of foreclosed real estate), and paid off existing Federal Home Loan Bank advances to reduce interest expenses. We will continue to evaluate our branch network, staffing levels and other sources of non-interest expenses to identify potential expense reductions in the future.

27


Our results of operations depend primarily on our net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between the interest income we earn on our interest-earning assets and the interest we pay on our interest-bearing liabilities. Our results of operations also are affected by our provisions for loan losses, non-interest income and non-interest expense. Non-interest income currently consists primarily of service charges on deposit accounts, loan servicing income, gain on sales of securities and loans, debit card income, income from bank-owned life insurance and miscellaneous other income. Non-interest expense currently consists primarily of expenses related to compensation and employee benefits, occupancy and equipment, data processing, federal deposit insurance premiums, ATM charges, professional fees, advertising and other operating expenses.
Our results of operations also may be affected significantly by general and local economic and competitive conditions, changes in market interest rates, governmental policies and actions of regulatory authorities.
On January 6, 2014, Westbury Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) received notification from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the “OCC”) that the Formal Written Agreement and Individual Minimum Capital Requirement ("IMCR") between the OCC and the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary Westbury Bank (the “Bank”) had been terminated effective December 24, 2013.
The Bank had been subject to the Formal Written Agreement since October 29, 2012 and to a memorandum of understanding that the Formal Written Agreement superseded since February 2010. The Bank had been subject to the IMCR since November 5, 2012.
As a result of the termination of the Formal Written Agreement, the Bank is no longer designated as in “troubled condition” and is designated as an “eligible institution” with respect to expedited processing of applications that it might file. Accordingly, the Bank is no longer required to obtain the approval of the OCC prior to effecting changes in its directors or executive officers, and is no longer subject to restrictions on executive compensation.
In addition, the Bank is no longer subject to restrictions on the declaration or payment of dividends or other restrictions on its activities imposed by the Formal Written Agreement. The Bank also is no longer required to maintain compliance with or report changes to the business and capital plan it had submitted to its regulators, and is no longer subject to additional quarterly reporting requirements imposed by the Formal Written Agreement.
 
Comparison of Financial Condition at December 31, 2013 and September 30, 2013
 
Total Assets.  Total assets decreased by $7.7 million, or 1.4%, to $535.6 million at December 31, 2013 from $543.3 million at September 30, 2013.  The decrease in total assets was primarily the result of a decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $14.1 million, offset by an increase in securities available for sale of $3.2 million and net loans of $3.6 million.
 
Net Loans.  Net loans increased by $3.6 million, or 1.1%, to $346.4 million at December 31, 2013 from $342.8 million at September 30, 2013.  Single family loans increased $1.1 million, multifamily loans increased $2.5 million, and commercial real estate loans increased $2.7 million during the three months ended December 31, 2013, while home equity lines of credit decreased by $1.5 million, commercial business loans decreased by $1.0 million, and construction and land development loans decreased by $615,000

The increase in total commercial loans reflect our continuing efforts to grow the commercial real estate, multifamily and commercial loan portfolio by building commercial relationships.

The increase in single family loans reflects the effect of the increase in residential mortgage interest rates which has reduced demand for refinancing. As a result, prepayments of existing balances has slowed and a larger portion of our originations are adjustable rate mortgages or fixed rate mortgages with terms of 10 years which are held in our portfolio.
 
Investment Securities.  Investment securities available for sale increased $3.2 million, or 3.0%, to $108.9 million at December 31, 2013 from $105.7 million at September 30, 2013.  Management intends to prudently use a portion of the liquidity in the investment portfolio to fund future growth in the loan portfolio.
 
Mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations increased $1.3 million, to $59.4 million at December 31, 2013 from $58.1 million at September 30, 2013 and municipal securities increased $2.0 million, to $40.3 million at December 31, 2013 from $38.3 million at September 30, 2013.  Net unrealized loss on securities increased $496,000 to $1.7 million at December 31, 2013 from $1.2 million at September 30, 2013, reflecting the effect of an increase in market interest rates.  At December 31, 2013, investment securities classified as available-for-sale consisted entirely of government-sponsored mortgage-backed securities, government-sponsored debentures, municipal securities and corporate securities with a focus on suitable government-sponsored securities to augment risk-based capital.
 

28


Foreclosed Real Estate.  Foreclosed real estate held for sale decreased $465,000, or 27.5%, to $1.2 million at December 31, 2013 from $1.7 million at September 30, 2013, as we sold $719,000 of foreclosed properties, foreclosed on $369,000 of non-performing loans and recorded valuation adjustments of $115,000 during the quarter.  At December 31, 2013, our foreclosed real estate included primarily one- to four-family residential real estate, multi-family and commercial real estate properties, the largest of which was a land development loan with a carrying value of $484,000.
 
Bank Owned Life Insurance.  Bank-owned life insurance (“BOLI”), which provides us with a funding source for certain of our employee benefit plan obligations, increased $105,000, or 0.8% to $12.5 million at December 31, 2013 from $12.4 million at September 30, 2013.  We are the beneficiary and owner of the BOLI policies, and as such, the investment is carried at the cash surrender value of the underlying policies.  BOLI also generally provides us other income that is non-taxable.
 
Deposits.  Deposits decreased $2.4 million, or 0.5%, to $438.6 million at December 31, 2013 from $441.0 million at September 30, 2013.  Our core deposits, which we consider to be our non-interest bearing and interest bearing checking accounts, passbook and statement savings accounts, and variable rate money market accounts, increased $2.0 million, or 0.6%, to $353.2 million at December 31, 2013 from $351.3 million at September 30, 2013.  Certificates of deposit decreased $4.3 million, or 4.8%, to $85.4 million at December 31, 2013 from $89.7 million at September 30, 2013.   The decrease in certificates of deposit is attributed primarily to customers’ decisions not to renew certificates in the current prolonged low interest rate environment. 
 
Other Liabilities.  Advance payments by borrowers for property taxes and insurance decreased $5.4 million to $347,000 at December 31, 2013 from $5.7 million at September 30, 2013 due to seasonal disbursements to customers in December to enable the payment of mortgagees’ property taxes. 
 
Total Equity.  Total equity increased $100,000, or 0.1%, to $90.7 million at December 31, 2013 from $90.6 million at September 30, 2013.  The increase resulted primarily from the release of shares in our ESOP of $287,000 and net income of $68,000 during the three months ended December 31, 2013, offset by $255,000 in other comprehensive loss.

The decrease in delinquent loans at December 31, 2013, compared to September 30, 2013, is primarily attributed to a decrease in commercial real estate delinquencies as a relationship of $5.3 million that was 60 days past due at September 30, 2013 paid in full during the quarter.

The decrease in classified assets at December 31, 2013, from September 30, 2013, was primarily due to the disposition of foreclosed real estate and the repayment of classified loans. In addition, a multifamily loan relationship for $2.6 million was reclassified to Substandard - Performing from Substandard - Nonperforming as it had performed as agreed for a satisfactory period of time after its restructuring.

Non-Performing Assets
 
The following table sets forth information regarding our non-performing assets and troubled debt restructurings at the dates indicated.  The information reflects net charge-offs but not specific reserves.  Troubled debt restructurings include loans where the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and for which either a portion of interest or principal has been forgiven or an extension of term granted, or for loans modified at interest rates materially less than current market rates.

The decrease in non-performing assets at December 31, 2013, from September 30, 2012, was primarily due to the disposition of foreclosed real estate and the return to accruing status of a $2.6 million multifamily loan relationship.
 
Interest income that would have been recorded for the three months ended December 31, 2013, had non-accruing loans been current according to their original terms, amounted to $77,000.  Interest of approximately $7,000 related to these loans was included in interest income for the three months ended December 31, 2013.
 
Other Loans of Concern.   There were no other loans at December 31, 2013 that are not already disclosed where there is information about possible credit problems of borrowers that caused management to have serious doubts about the ability of the borrowers to comply with present loan repayment terms and that may result in disclosure of such loans in the future.
 
Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012
 
General.  Net income for the three months ended December 31, 2013 was $68,000 compared to $841,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2012. The decrease in net income of $773,000 was primarily due to a decrease in noninterest income of $1.2 million and net interest income of $308,000, offset by a decrease in provisions for loan losses of $180,000, noninterest expense of $170,000 and income taxes of $426,000.
 
Interest and Dividend Income. Interest and dividend income decreased $510,000, or 10.1%, to $4.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013 from $5.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2012. This decrease was primarily attributable to a $718,000 decrease in interest and fee income on loans receivable offset by a $208,000 increase in interest and dividend income on investment securities.  The average balance of loans decreased $31.5 million to $340.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013 from $371.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2012. The average yield on loans decreased by 38 basis points to 4.68% for the three months ended December 31, 2013 from 5.06% for the three months ended December 31, 2012.  The average balance of investment securities increased $48.5 million to $106.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013 from $57.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2012, while the average yield on investment securities decreased by 30 basis points to 1.93% for the three months ended December 31, 2013 from 2.23% for the three months ended December 31, 2012.   The decrease in yields on loans and securities reflect the effects of the prolonged low interest rate environment as loans and securities are originated or repriced at lower rates.  The decrease in average loan balances resulted from our continued efforts to improve the credit quality of our loan portfolio.
 
Interest Expense. Total interest expense decreased $202,000, or 32.3%, to $424,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2013 from $626,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2012.  Interest expense on deposit accounts decreased $177,000 to $424,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2013 from $601,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2012.  The decrease was primarily due to a decrease of 13 basis points in the average cost of deposits to 0.38% for the three months ended December 31, 2013 from 0.51% for the three months ended December 31, 2012, reflecting the declining interest rate environment, and a decrease of $26.6 million in the average balance of deposits to $447.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013 from $473.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2012.
 
Net Interest Income. Net interest income decreased $308,000, or 7.0%, to $4.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013 from $4.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2012.  Average interest-earning assets increased by $25.5 million, or 5.7%, to $470.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013, from $444.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2012. Average deposits and interest-bearing liabilities decreased by $27.9 million, or 5.9%, to $447.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013, from $475.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2012.  Our net interest margin decreased 48 basis points to 3.49% for the three months ended December 31, 2013 from 3.97% for the three months ended December 31, 2012.  The decrease in our net interest margin reflects the effects of downward pressure on loan pricing caused by the prolonged low interest rate environment and its adverse impact on our ability to further reduce rates on transaction accounts.  The change in asset mix with growth in the investment portfolio also negatively impacted the margin as investment securities generally do not carry yields as high as those on loan products.
 
Provision for Loan Losses.  We recorded a provision for loan losses of $150,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2013 compared to $330,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2012.  The allowance for loan losses was $3.7 million, or 1.1% of total loans, at December 31, 2013, compared to $4.3 million, or 1.2% of total loans, at September 30, 2013, and $6.0 million, or 1.6% of total loans, at December 31, 2012.  Total nonperforming loans were $5.0 million at December 31, 2013, compared to $8.7 million at September 30, 2013, and $9.8 million at December 31, 2012.  As a percentage of nonperforming loans, the allowance for loan losses was 75.6% at December 31, 2013, compared to 48.8% at September 30, 2013, and 60.8% at December 31, 2012.  Total classified loans were $9.7 million at December 31, 2013, compared to $9.9 million at September 30, 2013, and $22.4 million at December 31, 2012.
 

34


The allowance for loan losses reflects the balance we believe to be appropriate to cover incurred probable losses which were inherent in the loan portfolio at December 31, 2013, September 30, 2013, and December 31, 2012.
 
Non-Interest Income Non-interest income decreased $1.2 million, or 41.4%, to $1.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013 from $3.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2012. The decrease was primarily related to a decrease in gain on sales of loans of $905,000, a decrease in the gain on sales of securities of $219,000, a decrease in other income of $272,000 and a decrease in insurance and securities sales commissions of $128,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2013, from the three months ended December 31, 2012.  These decreases were offset by an increase in servicing fee income of $375,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2013, from the three months ended December 31, 2012. The decrease in gain on sales of loans resulted from significantly reduced demand for fixed rate mortgages during the quarter.  The decrease in the gain on sales of securities resulted as we curtailed our program of managing the balance sheet to maintain capital ratios as our conversion to stock was completed in the 2013 fiscal year. The decrease in insurance and securities sales commissions resulted as we restructure that business line to improve its contribution to profits. The decrease in other income resulted from a reduction in loan application fees for the quarter. The increase in servicing fee income resulted from the partial recovery of valuation reserves on our mortgage servicing asset as a result of an increase in the expected life of our serviced loan portfolio due to the increase in market interest rates.
 
Non-Interest Expense.  Non-interest expense decreased $170,000, or 2.9%, to $5.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013, from $5.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2012. The decrease was primarily caused by a decrease in compensation expenses of $96,000 (consisting of a decrease in commission expense of $196,000 offset by an increase in salaries and benefits of $100,000 as a result of changes to compensation plans for certain sales staff) and a decrease in FDIC insurance premiums of $97,000 as a result of the decrease in our deposit balances. 
 
Provision for Income Taxes.  Income tax benefit was $2,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2013, compared to expense of $424,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2012.  The effective tax rate as a percent of pre-tax income was (3.0%) and 33.5% for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The benefit for the three months ended December 31, 2013 resulted from tax exempt income exceeding pre-tax income for the quarter.
 


Analysis of Net Interest Income
 
Net interest income represents the difference between the income we earn on interest-earning assets and the interest expense we pay on interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income also depends upon the relative amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the interest rates earned or paid on them.  The following tables set forth average balance sheets, average yields and costs, and certain other information at or for the periods indicated.  Average balances are derived from daily average balances for all periods.  Non-accrual loans were included in the computation of average balances, but have been reflected in the tables as loans carrying a zero yield. No tax equivalent yield adjustments have been made.  The yields set forth below include the effect of loan fees, discounts and premiums that are amortized or accreted to interest income.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Our primary sources of funds are deposits, principal and interest payments on loans and securities, proceeds from the sale of loans, proceeds from maturities and calls of securities, Federal Home Loan Bank advances and, to a lesser extent, short-term borrowings from other financial institutions. 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. Our most liquid assets are cash and short-term investments including interest-bearing demand deposits. The levels of these assets are dependent on our operating, financing, lending, and investing activities during any given period.
 
Our cash flows are comprised of three primary classifications: cash flows from operating activities, investing activities, and financing activities.  Net cash used in operating activities was $4.1 million and $4.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.  Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities, which consists primarily of disbursements for loan originations and the purchase of securities, offset by principal collections on loans, proceeds from the sale of securities and proceeds from maturing securities and pay downs on mortgage-backed securities, was $(7.5) million and $17.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.  During

36


the three months ended December 31, 2013, we purchased $6.4 million and sold $0 in securities held as available-for-sale, and during the three months ended December 31, 2012, we purchased $7.7 million and sold $10.3 million in securities held as available-for-sale.  For the three months ended December 31, 2013, net cash used in financing activities, consisting of decreases in deposit accounts, was $2.4 million. For the three months ended December 31, 2012, net cash provided by financing activities was $2.3 million consisting of increases in deposit accounts.
 
At December 31, 2013, Westbury Bank exceeded all of its regulatory capital requirements with Tier 1 leverage capital of $62.5 million, or 12.23% of adjusted total assets, which is above the required level of $20.4 million, or 4.00%; and total risk-based capital of $66.2 million, or 18.98% of risk-weighted assets, which is above the required level of $28.0 million, or 8.00%.  Accordingly, Westbury Bank was categorized as well capitalized at December 31, 2013. 
 
At December 31, 2013, we had outstanding commitments to originate loans of $825,000 and stand-by letters of credit of $190,000.  We anticipate that we will have sufficient funds available to meet our current loan origination commitments.  Certificates of deposit that are scheduled to mature in less than one year from December 31, 2013 totaled $52.2 million.  Management expects that a substantial portion of the maturing certificates of deposit will be renewed.  However, if a substantial portion of these deposits is not retained, we may utilize Federal Home Loan Bank advances or the proceeds from our recent stock offering or raise interest rates on deposits to attract new accounts, which may result in higher levels of interest expense.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements.  In the normal course of operations, we engage in a variety of financial transactions that, in accordance with U.S. 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, lines of credit and standby letters of credit.
 
We have not engaged in any other off-balance-sheet transactions in the normal course of our lending activities.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices
 
The financial statements and related data presented herein have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without considering changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation.  The primary impact of inflation on our operations is reflected in increased operating costs. Unlike most industrial companies, virtually all of the assets and liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates, generally, have a more significant impact on a financial institution’s performance than does inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the prices of goods and services.
 
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 
Disclosures of quantitative and qualitative market risk are not required by smaller reporting companies, such as the Company.
 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of December 31, 2013. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
 
During the quarter ended December 31, 2013, there have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, amended) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
 



PART II
 

37


ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
On December 3, 2012, a civil suit was filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin, Civil Action Number 12-CV-1210, by First American Title Insurance Company against Westbury Bank.  The plaintiffs seek actual damages of $3.6 million and additional treble or such punitive or other damages as determined by the court, as well as plaintiffs’ fees, costs and expenses.  The suit alleges that Westbury Bank should have been aware of the misappropriation of funds deposited into an escrow account maintained by a commercial customer of Westbury Bank, New Horizon Title, LLC.  The suit also alleges that Westbury Bank improperly deducted overdraft fees from the escrow account, that Westbury Bank aided and abetted its customer in the misappropriation of escrowed funds and in its customer’s breach of fiduciary duty to plaintiffs and lenders to whom the escrowed funds belonged, that Westbury Bank’s conduct amounted to commercial bad faith under state commercial law and that Westbury Bank was unjustly enriched as a result of its actions.
 
Westbury Bank believes that the lawsuit is without merit and intends to defend itself vigorously.  Based on the information available to Westbury Bank’s litigation counsel at this time, they believe that the claims in this case are legally and factually without merit.  Counsel is unable to give an opinion as to the likely outcome.  Other than the foregoing, we are not involved in any pending legal proceedings as a plaintiff or defendant other than routine legal proceedings occurring in the ordinary course of business, and at December 31, 2013, we were not involved in any legal proceedings, the outcome of which would be material to our financial condition or results of operations.
