BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. However, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of results for the periods. The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended March 31, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2006 or any other period. The consolidated financial statements presented herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in the First Keystone Financial, Inc. (the "Company") Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2005. 2.

At March 31, 2006, investment securities in a gross unrealized loss position for twelve months or longer consisted of four securities having an aggregate depreciation of 3.9% from the Company's amortized cost basis. Management believes that the estimated fair value of the securities disclosed above is primarily dependent upon the movement in market interest rates particularly given the limited inherent credit risk associated with these securities. These investment securities are comprised of securities that are rated investment grade by at least one bond credit rating service. Although the fair value will fluctuate as the market interest rates move, management believes that these fair values will recover as the underlying portfolios mature and are reinvested in market rate yielding investments. Mutual funds in an unrealized loss position for 12 months or longer consisted of two funds primarily invested in asset-backed securities and had an aggregate depreciation of 3.3%. Corporate bonds in an unrealized loss position for 12 months or longer consisted of two debt securities and had an aggregate depreciation of 5.5%. The Company has the ability and intent to hold these securities until such time as the value recovers or the securities mature. Management does not believe any individual unrealized loss as of March 31, 2006 represents an other-than-temporary impairment. The amortized cost and approximate fair value of investment securities available for sale and held to maturity, by contractual maturities, are as follows:

-7- At March 31, 2006, mortgage-related securities in a gross unrealized loss position for twelve months or longer consisted of 42 securities that at such date had an aggregate depreciation of 4.2% from the Company's amortized cost basis. Management does not believe any individual unrealized loss as of March 31, 2006 represents an other-than-temporary impairment. The unrealized losses reported for mortgage-related securities relate primarily to securities issued by the Federal National Mortgage Association, the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation and various private issuers. The majority of the unrealized losses associated with mortgage-related securities are primarily attributable to changes in interest rates and not due to the deterioration of the creditworthiness of the issuer. The Company has the ability and intent to hold these securities until the securities mature or recover in value. Mortgage-related securities available for sale and mortgage-related securities held to maturity are summarized as follows:

At March 31, 2006 and September 30, 2005, non-performing loans (which include loans in excess of 90 days delinquent) amounted to approximately $811 and $5,052, respectively. At March 31, 2006, non-performing loans primarily consisted of single-family residential mortgage loans aggregating $472 and consumer lines of credit aggregating $202. At March 31, 2006 and September 30, 2005, the Company had impaired loans with a total recorded investment of $995 and $3,837, respectively, and an average recorded investment of $3,727 and $1,279, respectively. Interest income of $34 and $39 was recognized on these impaired loans during the six months ended March 31, 2006 and the year ended September 30, 2005, respectively. Loans collectively evaluated for impairment include residential real estate, home equity (including lines of credit) and consumer loans and are not included in the data that follow:

As of March 31, 2006, the Company transferred to real estate owned property located in Chesapeake City, Maryland that secured a $3,337 commercial real estate loan and a $500 commercial business loan as a result of the Company taking possession of the property. In connection with the property's transfer to real estate owned, the Company recorded the property at its approximate fair value of $2,700 resulting in a charge-off of $1,137 against the allowance for loan losses. -9- The Company has identified the evaluation of the allowance for loan losses as a critical accounting estimate where amounts are sensitive to material variation. The Company is constantly challenging the methodology, conducting assessments and redefining the process to determine the appropriate level of allowance for loan losses. Critical accounting estimates are significantly affected by management's judgment and uncertainties and there is a likelihood that materially different amounts would be reported under different, but reasonable, conditions or assumptions. The allowance for loan losses is considered a critical accounting estimate because there is a large degree of judgment in (i) assigning individual loans to specific risk levels (pass, special mention, substandard, doubtful and loss), (ii) valuing the underlying collateral securing the loans, (iii) determining the appropriate reserve factor to be applied to specific risk levels for criticized and classified loans (special mention, substandard, doubtful and loss) and (iv) determining reserve factors to be applied to pass loans based upon loan type. Management reviews the allowance for loan losses generally on a monthly basis, but at a minimum at least quarterly. To the extent that loans change risk levels, collateral values change or reserve factors change, the Company may need to adjust its provision for loan losses which would impact earnings. In this framework, a series of qualitative factors are used in a methodology as a measurement of how current circumstances are affecting the loan portfolio. Included, among other things, in these qualitative factors are past loss experience, type and volume of loans, changes in lending policies and procedures, underwriting standards, collections, charge-offs and recoveries, national and local economic conditions, concentrations of credit, and the effect of external factors on the level of estimated credit losses in the current portfolio. The determination of the allowance for loan losses requires management to make significant estimates with respect to the amounts and timing of losses and market and economic conditions. Accordingly, a decline in the economy could increase loan delinquencies, foreclosures or repossessions resulting in increased charge-off amounts and the need for additional provisions to the loan loss allowance in future periods. The Company will continue to monitor and adjust its allowance for loan losses through the provision for loan losses as economic conditions and other factors dictate. Although the Company maintains its allowance for loan losses at levels considered adequate to provide for the amount of known and inherent loss in its loan portfolio, there can be no assurance that future losses will not exceed estimated amounts or that additional provisions for loan losses will not be required in future periods. In addition, the Company's determination as to the amount of its allowance for loan losses is subject to review by its primary federal banking regulator, the Office of Thrift Supervision (the "OTS"), as part of its examination process, which may require the recognition of an adjustment to the allowance for loan losses based on its judgment of information available to it at the time of its examination. To the extent that actual outcomes differ from management's estimates, additional provisions to the allowance for loan losses may be required that would adversely impact earnings in future periods. 5. DEPOSITS Deposits consist of the following major classifications:

-10- 6. EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic net income per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, while diluted net income per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and common share equivalents that would arise from the exercise of dilutive securities. All dilutive shares consist of options the exercise price of which is lower than the market price of the common stock covered thereby at the dates presented. At March 31, 2006 and 2005, anti-dilutive shares consisted of options covering 2,221 and 408 shares, respectively. The calculated basic and diluted earnings per share ("EPS") is as follows:

7. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION Effective October 1, 2005, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 123 (Revised 2004), "Share-Based Payment" (SFAS No. 123(R)) using the modified prospective application transition method. The adoption of SFAS No.123(R) resulted in approximately $6 and $13 compensation expense for the three and six month periods ended March 31, 2006, respectively. Pro forma compensation expense for the three and six month periods ended March 31, 2005 was $4 and $8, respectively. There were no new grants of stock options or other share-based payments during the six months ended March 31, 2006 and, therefore, additional disclosures for share-based compensation were omitted due to immateriality. 8. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In February 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 155, "Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments-an amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140" ("SFAS No. 155.") SFAS No. 155 amends SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," to permit fair value remeasurement for any hybrid financial instrument with an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation, provided that the whole instrument is accounted for on a fair value basis. SFAS No. 155 amends SFAS No. 140, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets", to allow a qualifying special-purpose entity to hold a derivative financial instrument that pertains to a beneficial interest other than another derivative financial instrument. SFAS No. 155 is effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued after the beginning of an entity's first fiscal year beginning after September 15, 2006 and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. In March 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 156, "Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets-an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140," ("SFAS No. 156"). SFAS No. 156 amends SFAS No. 140, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities," with respect to the accounting for separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. SFAS No. 156 requires an entity to recognize a servicing asset or servicing liability each time it undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset by entering into a servicing contract in certain situations prescribed by SFAS No. 156. All separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities are to be initially measured at fair value, if practicable, and SFAS No. 156 permits an entity to choose either the amortization method or -11- fair value measurement method for subsequent measurement methods for each class of separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. SFAS No. 156 is effective as of the beginning of an entity's first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. The requirements for recognition and initial measurement of servicing assets and servicing liabilities should be applied prospectively to all transactions after the effective date of this statement. The Company's management is evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS No. 156 on the Company's financial statements. On November 3, 2005, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position ("FSP") Nos. FAS 115-1 and FAS 124-1, "The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments." This FSP addresses the determination as to when an investment is considered impaired, whether that impairment is other than temporary, and the measurement of an impairment loss. This FSP also includes accounting considerations subsequent to the recognition of an other-than-temporary impairment and requires certain disclosures about unrealized losses that have not been recognized as other-than-temporary impairments. This FSP nullifies certain requirements of EITF Issue 03-1, "The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments", and supersedes EITF Topic No. D-44, "Recognition of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment upon the Planned Sale of a Security Whose Cost Exceeds Fair Value." The guidance in this FSP amends SFAS Statement No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities." The FSP is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2005. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2006 and it did not have a significant impact on the Company's interim financial statements. 9. SUPERVISORY AGREEMENTS On February 13, 2006, the Company and the Bank each entered into a supervisory agreement with the OTS which primarily addressed issues identified in the OTS' most recent reports of examination of the Company's and the Bank's operations and financial condition. Under the terms of the supervisory agreement between the Company and the OTS, the Company agreed to, among other things, (i) develop and implement a three-year capital plan designed to support the Company's efforts to maintain prudent levels of capital and to reduce its debt-to-equity ratio below 50%; (ii) not incur any additional debt without the prior written approval of the OTS; and (iii) not repurchase any shares of or pay any cash dividends on its common stock until certain conditions were complied with; provided, however, that upon reducing its debt-to-equity below 50%, the Company may resume the payment of quarterly cash dividends at the lesser of the dividend rate in effect immediately prior to entering into the supervisory agreement or 35% of its consolidated net income (on an annualized basis), provided that the OTS does not object to the payment of such dividend pursuant to a required prior notice of the Company's intent to declare such quarterly dividend. In order to comply with the debt-to-equity ratio requirement, the Company is considering various alternatives which may include raising additional equity capital combined with the redemption in the future of a portion of its outstanding subordinated debt. Under the terms of the supervisory agreement between the Bank and the OTS, the Bank agreed to, among other things, (i) not grow in any quarter in excess of the greater of 3% of total assets (on an annualized basis) or net interest credited on deposit liabilities during such quarter; (ii) maintain its core capital and total risk-based capital ratios in excess of 7.5% and 12.5%, respectively; (iii) adopt revised policies and procedures governing commercial lending; (iv) conduct periodic reviews of its commercial loan department; (v) conduct periodic internal loan reviews; (vi) adopt a revised asset classification policy and (vii) not amend, renew or enter into compensatory arrangements with senior executive officers and directors, subject to certain exceptions, without the prior approval of the OTS. As noted above, the Company is not permitted to pay dividends to its stockholders under the terms of the supervisory agreement until certain conditions are satisfied. Currently, the Company does not believe dividends will be able to be resumed until at least the quarter ended March 31, 2007. As a result of the supervisory agreement, the Bank is not deemed to be "well-capitalized" for purposes of the prompt corrective action regulations of the OTS even though the Bank's regulatory capital is in excess of all regulatory capital requirements. -12- ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS In addition to historical information, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes certain "forward-looking statements" based on management's current expectations. The Company's actual results could differ materially, as such term is defined in the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, from management's expectations. Such forward-looking statements include statements regarding management's current intentions, beliefs or expectations as well as the assumptions on which such statements are based. These forward-looking statements are subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are not subject to the Company's control. Stockholders and potential stockholders are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties, and that actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause future results to vary from current management expectations include, but are not limited to, general economic conditions, legislative and regulatory changes, monetary and fiscal policies of the federal government, changes in tax policies, rates and regulations of federal, state and local tax authorities, changes in interest rates, deposit flows, the cost of funds, demand for loan products, demand for financial services, competition, changes in the quality or composition of the Company's loan and investment portfolios, changes in accounting principles, policies or guidelines, availability and cost of energy resources, the effects of the supervisory agreements entered into by the Company and First Keystone Bank (the "Bank") with the Office of Thrift Supervision (the "OTS"), and other economic, competitive, governmental and technological factors affecting the Company's operations, markets, products, services and fees. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results that occur subsequent to the date such forward-looking statements are made. GENERAL The Company is a Pennsylvania corporation and sole stockholder of the Bank, a federally chartered stock savings bank, which converted to the stock form of organization in January 1995. The Bank is a community-oriented bank emphasizing customer service and convenience. The Bank's primary business is attracting deposits from the general public and using those funds together with other available sources of funds, primarily borrowings, to originate loans. The Bank's management remains focused on its long-term strategic plan to continue to shift the Bank's loan composition toward commercial business, construction and home equity loans and lines of credit in order to provide a higher yielding loan portfolio with generally shorter contractual terms. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES. Accounting policies involving significant judgments and assumptions by management, which have, or could have, a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets or comprehensive income, are considered critical accounting policies. In management's opinion, the most critical accounting policy affecting the Company's financial statements is the evaluation of the allowance for loan losses. The Company maintains an allowance for loan losses at a level management believes is sufficient to provide for known and inherent losses in the loan portfolio that were both probable and reasonable to estimate. The allowance for loan losses is considered a critical accounting estimate because there is a large degree of judgment in (i) assigning individual loans to specific risk levels (pass, substandard, doubtful and loss), (ii) valuing the underlying collateral securing the loans, (iii) determining the appropriate reserve factor to be applied to specific risk levels for criticized and classified loans (substandard, doubtful and loss) and (iv) determining reserve factors to be applied to pass loans based upon loan type. Accordingly, there is a likelihood that materially different amounts would be reported under different, but reasonably plausible conditions or assumptions. The determination of the allowance for loan losses requires management to make significant estimates with respect to the amounts and timing of losses and market and economic conditions. Accordingly, a decline in the economy could increase loan delinquencies, foreclosures or repossessions resulting in increased charge-off amounts and the need for additional loan loss allowances in future periods. The Bank will continue to monitor and adjust its allowance for loan losses through the provision for loan losses as economic conditions and other factors dictate. Management reviews the allowance for loan losses generally on a monthly basis. Although the Bank maintains its -13- allowance for loan losses at levels considered adequate to provide for the inherent risk of loss in its loan portfolio, there can be no assurance that future losses will not exceed estimated amounts or that additional provisions for loan losses will not be required in future periods. In addition, the Bank's determination as to the amount of its allowance for loan losses is subject to review by its primary federal banking regulator, the OTS, as part of its examination process, which may result in additional allowances based upon the judgment and review of the OTS. See "- Provision for Loan Losses." SUPERVISORY AGREEMENTS. On February 13, 2006, the Company and the Bank each entered into a supervisory agreement with the OTS which primarily addressed issues identified in the OTS' most recent reports of examination of the Company's and the Bank's operations and financial condition. Under the terms of the supervisory agreement between the Company and the OTS, the Company agreed to, among other things, (i) develop and implement a three-year capital plan designed to support the Company's efforts to maintain prudent levels of capital and to reduce its debt-to-equity ratio below 50%; (ii) not incur any additional debt without the prior written approval of the OTS; and (iii) not repurchase any shares of or pay any cash dividends on its common stock until certain conditions were complied with; provided, however, that upon reducing its debt-to-equity below 50%, the Company may resume the payment of quarterly cash dividends at the lesser of the dividend rate in effect immediately prior to entering into the supervisory agreement or 35% of its consolidated net income (on an annualized basis), provided that the OTS does not object to the payment of such dividend pursuant to a required prior notice of the Company's intent to declare such quarterly dividend. In order to comply with the debt-to-equity ratio requirement, the Company is considering various alternatives which may include raising additional equity capital combined with the redemption in the future of a portion of its outstanding subordinated debt. Under the terms of the supervisory agreement between the Bank and the OTS, the Bank agreed to, among other things, (i) not grow in any quarter in excess of the greater of 3% of total assets (on an annualized basis) or net interest credited on deposit liabilities during such quarter; (ii) maintain its core capital and total risk-based capital ratios in excess of 7.5% and 12.5%, respectively; (iii) adopt revised policies and procedures governing commercial lending; (iv) conduct periodic reviews of its commercial loan department; (v) conduct periodic internal loan reviews; (vi) adopt a revised asset classification policy and (vii) not amend, renew or enter into compensatory arrangements with senior executive officers and directors, subject to certain exceptions, without the prior approval of the OTS. As noted above, the Company is not permitted to pay dividends to its stockholders under the terms of the supervisory agreement until certain conditions are satisfied. Currently, the Company does not believe dividends will be able to be resumed until at least the quarter ended March 31, 2007. As a result of the supervisory agreement, the Bank is not deemed to be "well-capitalized" for purposes of the prompt corrective action regulations of the OTS even though the Bank's regulatory capital is in excess of all regulatory capital requirements. COMPARISON OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AT MARCH 31, 2006 AND SEPTEMBER 30, 2005 Total assets of the Company increased by $1.6 million from $518.1 million at September 30, 2005 to $519.8 million at March 31, 2006. Loans receivable increased slightly to $306.5 million at March 31, 2006 as the Company continued to modestly increase the percentage of its portfolio consisting of commercial real estate loans, construction loans, home equity and lines of credit and commercial business loans, partially offset by a decrease in single-family residential loans. Prepaid expenses and other assets decreased $4.7 million due to funds received for settlement of securities sales. Total deposits increased $13.0 million, or 3.7%, from $349.7 million at September 30, 2005 to $362.7 million at March 31, 2006, while borrowings decreased $11.3 million, or 10.0%, from $113.3 million at September 30, 2005. The increase in deposits resulted from an $8.7 million, or 5.0%, increase in certificates of deposit combined with an increase of $4.3 million, or 2.4%, in core deposits (which consist of passbook, money market, NOW and non-interest bearing accounts). Stockholders' equity decreased $873,000 to $27.3 million primarily due to a $1.2 million decline in the amount of accumulated other comprehensive loss combined with dividend payments in the first quarter of fiscal 2006 totaling $208,000, partially offset by net income of $464,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2006. -14- COMPARISON OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2006 AND 2005 NET INCOME. Net income was $19,000, or $.01 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 as compared to $638,000, or $.34 per diluted share, for the same period in 2005. Net income for the six months ended March 31, 2006 was $464,000, or $.24 per diluted share, a decrease of $697,000, or 60.0%, as compared to $1.2 million, or $.63 per diluted share, for the same period in 2005. NET INTEREST INCOME. Net interest income decreased $133,000, or 4.5%, to $2.8 million and $173,000, or 3.0%, to $5.6 million for the three and six months ended March 31, 2006 as compared to the same period in 2005. Such decreases were primarily due to decreases in interest income of $83,000, or 1.2%, and $168,000, or 1.3%, for the three and six months ended March 31, 2006, respectively. The average balance of interest-earning assets decreased $54.8 million and $59.5 million for the three and six months ended March 31, 2006, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2005. The significant decline in the average balances was the result of the Company implementing a deleveraging strategy in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005 involving the sale of $47.5 million of various low-yielding securities and the repayment of $46.0 million in FHLB convertible advances. Calculated on a tax-equivalent basis, the weighted average yield earned on interest-earning assets for the three months ended March 31, 2006 increased 53 basis points to 5.68% compared to the same period in 2005 and 57 basis points to 5.64% for the six months ended March 31, 2006 compared to the same period in 2005. Net interest income was also affected by a $50,000, or 1.3%, and $5,000, or 0.07%, increase in interest expense for the three and six months ended March 31, 2006, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2005. For the three months ended March 31, 2006, the weighted average rate paid on such liabilities increased 36 basis points to 3.24% from 2.88% for the same period in the prior fiscal year and 34 basis points to 3.21% for the six months ended March 31, 2006 as compared to 2.87% for the six months ended March 31, 2005. The interest rate spread and net interest margin, on a fully tax-equivalent basis, were 2.43% and 2.43%, respectively, for the six months ended March 31, 2006 as compared to 2.21% and 2.22%, respectively, for the same period in 2005. As a result of the deleveraging strategy, the Company improved its interest rate margin because the yields on interest-earning assets increased to a greater degree than the rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities. However, the continued rise in short-term interest rates could negatively impact the Company's interest rate margin as shorter term interest-bearing liabilities will reprice faster than the Company's longer term interest-earning assets. -15- The following table presents the average balances for various categories of assets and liabilities, and income and expense related to those assets and liabilities for the three months and six months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005. The adjustment of tax-exempt securities to a tax equivalent yield in the table below may be considered to include non-GAAP financial information. Management believes that it is a common practice in the banking industry to present net interest margin, net interest rate spread and net interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis when a significant proportion of interest-earning assets are tax-free. Therefore, management believes, these measures provide useful information to investors by allowing them to make peer comparisons. A GAAP reconciliation also is included below.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES. Provisions for loan losses are charged to earnings to maintain the total allowance for loan losses at a level believed by management sufficient to cover all known and inherent losses in the loan portfolio which are both probable and reasonably estimable. Management's analysis includes consideration of the Company's historical experience, the volume and type of lending conducted by the Company, the amount of the Company's classified assets, the status of past due principal and interest payments, general economic conditions, particularly as they relate to the Company's primary market area, and other factors related to the collectibility of the Company's loan and loans held for sale portfolios For the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, the provision for loan losses amounted to $525,000 and $45,000, respectively. The increase of $480,000 in the provision for loan losses was due to an additional reserve of $180,000 related to the write down to fair value of the property securing a $3.3 million commercial real estate loan and a related $500,000 commercial business loan based on the current assessment of the property's fair value as well as a determination that an additional provision of $345,000 was required as result of the continual evaluation of the classified and pass loan portfolios to bring the overall allowance for loan losses to a level deemed appropriate. As further discussed below, during the three months ended March, 31, 2006, the $3.3 million -18- commercial real estate loan was transferred to real estate owned. For the six months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, the provision for loan losses amounted to $570,000 and $90,000, respectively. The coverage ratio, which is the ratio of the allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans, was 356.74% and 68.8% at March 31, 2006 and September 30, 2005, respectively. At March 31, 2006, non-performing assets decreased $2.3 million to $3.5 million, or 0.68%, of total assets, from $5.8 million at September 30, 2005. The decrease in non-performing assets was primarily the result of a $4.2 million decrease to $811,000 in nonperforming loans partially offset by a $1.9 million increase to $2.7 million in real estate owned. The decrease in non-performing loans was primarily due to the transfer of a $3.3 million commercial real estate loan to real estate owned and a charge-off of $500,000 for a related commercial business loan combined with the repayment in full of a $770,000 residential construction loan. As of March 31, 2006, the Company transferred to real estate owned property located in Chesapeake City, Maryland that secured a $3.3 million commercial real estate loan as a result of the Company taking possession of the property. The Company also had a $500,000 commercial business loan outstanding in connection with this loan relationship. The Company previously allocated reserves of $959,000 as of the quarter ended June 30, 2005. In connection with the Company's review of the fair value of the collateral supporting the loans, the Company recognized an additional reserve of $178,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2006, increasing the total reserve for the loan to approximately $1.1 million. In connection with the property's transfer to real estate owned, the Company recorded the property at its approximate fair value of $2.7 million. As a result of the transfer of the property to real estate owned and the charge-off of the commercial business loan, the Company charged-off $1.1 million against the allowance for loan losses in the quarter ended March 31, 2006. Offsetting, in part, the increase in real estate owned was the sale during the quarter of a commercial property in which the Company held a 25% participation interest in a golf facility. The sale of the property, which was carried at a value of $760,000, resulted in a pre-tax gain of $158,000 which was included in non-interest income. Management continues to review its loan portfolio to determine the extent, if any, to which further additional loss provisions may be deemed necessary. There can be no assurance that the allowance for losses will be adequate to cover losses which may in fact be realized in the future and that additional provisions for losses will not be required. NON-INTEREST INCOME. For the three months ended March 31, 2006, non-interest income decreased $301,000 or 27.3% to $800,000 as compared to the same period in 2005. The decrease for the three months ended March 31, 2006 was primarily due to the Company's not experiencing any gain on sales of investment securities in the 2006 period as compared to $449,000 in gain on sales of investment and mortgage-related securities in the second quarter of fiscal 2005. The decrease in non-interest income was partially offset by the $158,000 pre-tax gain on the sale of a real estate owned property referenced above. Non-interest income decreased $427,000 to $1.6 million for the six months ended March 31, 2006 by comparison to the same period last year. The decrease for the six months ended March 31, 2006 was primarily due to the Company's not experiencing any gain on sales of investment securities in the 2006 period as compared to $524,000 for the same period in 2005. To a lesser extent, non-interest income decreased due to a slower appreciation rate during the first quarter of fiscal 2006 period in the cash surrender value of certain insurance policies held by the Bank to fund certain supplemental retirement benefits resulting in a decrease of $114,000 compared to the same period in 2005. In addition, the $59,000 decrease in the service charges and other fees was mainly due to a decrease in usage of a deposit service provided to the Bank's checking accounts. The decreases in non-interest income were partially offset by a $105,000 increase in the gain on sale of loans of commercial business loans through the Small Business Administration. NON-INTEREST EXPENSE. Non-interest expense increased $22,000 or 0.7% during the three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to the same period in 2005. The increase for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 was primarily due to increases of $269,000 and $25,000 in professional fees and federal insurance premiums, respectively, partially offset by decreases of $209,000 and $84,000 in salaries and employee benefits and other non-interest expense, respectively. Professional fees were substantially higher in the 2006 period due to expenses incurred in connection with the foreclosure of a $3.8 million non-performing commercial real estate loan. Salaries and employee benefits costs were higher in the 2005 period due to certain benefits incurred as part of a retirement package as well as accruals for certain incentive programs. Other non-interest expense decreased due to the completion of a bank-wide customer service training program in October 2005 as well as decreases in general administrative expenses. -19- For the six months ended March 31, 2006, non-interest expense decreased by $33,000, or 0.5%, primarily due to decreases of $237,000, or 7.3%, in salary and employee benefits and $154,000, or 16.3%, in other non-interest expenses, respectively, partially offset by a $293,000, or 55.5%, increase in professional fees compared to the same period in 2005 for the reasons described above. INCOME TAX (BENEFIT) EXPENSE. The Company recognized income tax benefits of $142,000 and $70,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2006, respectively as compared to income tax expenses of $175,000 and $280,000 for the same periods in 2005. The recognition of the income tax benefits for the three and six months ended March 31, 2006 was primarily related to the decline in pre-tax income for such periods. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES. The Company's liquidity, represented by cash and cash equivalents, is a product of its operating, investing and financing activities. The Company's primary sources of funds are deposits, amortization, prepayment and maturities of outstanding loans and mortgage-related securities, sales of loans, maturities of investment securities and other short-term investments, borrowing and funds provided from operations. While scheduled payments from the amortization of loans and mortgage-related securities and maturing investment securities and short-term investments are relatively predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition. In addition, the Company invests excess funds in overnight deposits and other short-term interest-earning assets which provide liquidity to meet lending requirements. The Company has been able to generate sufficient cash through its deposits as well as borrowings to satisfy its funding commitments. At March 31, 2006, the Company had short-term borrowings (due within one year or currently callable by the FHLB) outstanding of $101.5 million, all of which consisted of advances from the FHLB of Pittsburgh. Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of business management. Excess liquidity is generally invested in short-term investments such as overnight deposits. On a longer term basis, the Company maintains a strategy of investing in various lending products, mortgage-related securities and investment securities. The Company uses its sources of funds primarily to meet its ongoing commitments, to fund maturing certificates of deposit and savings withdrawals, fund loan commitments and maintain a portfolio of mortgage-related and investment securities. At March 31, 2006, total approved loan commitments outstanding amounted to $15.8 million, not including loans in process. At the same date, commitments under unused lines of credit amounted to $39.6 million. Certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in one year or less at March 31, 2006 totaled $124.9 million. Based upon the Company's historical experience, management believes that a significant portion of maturing deposits will remain with the Company. The Bank is required under applicable federal banking regulations to maintain tangible capital equal to at least 1.5% of its adjusted total assets, core capital equal to at least 4.0% of its adjusted total assets and total capital to at least 8.0% of its risk-weighted assets. At March 31, 2006, the Bank had tangible capital and core capital equal to 9.0% of adjusted total assets and total capital equal to 15.1% of risk-weighted assets. However, as a result of the supervisory agreement discussed above in "Supervisory Agreements," the Bank is required to maintain core and risk-based capital in excess of 7.5% and 12.5%, respectively. The Bank is in compliance with such requirements imposed by the supervisory agreement. In addition, as a result of entering into such agreement, the Bank is no longer deemed to be "well-capitalized" for purposes of the prompt corrective action regulations of the OTS. IMPACT OF INFLATION AND CHANGING PRICES. The Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company and related notes presented herein have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles which requires 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. Unlike most industrial companies, substantially all of the assets and liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a more significant impact on a financial institution's performance than the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or in the same magnitude as the price of goods and services, since such prices are affected by inflation to a larger extent than interest rates. In the current interest rate environment, liquidity and the maturity structure of the Company's assets and liabilities are critical to the maintenance of acceptable performance levels. -20- ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK For a discussion of the Company's asset and liability management policies, see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation" in the Company's Annual Report for the year ended September 30, 2005. The Company utilizes reports prepared by the OTS to measure interest rate risk. Using data from the Bank's quarterly thrift financial reports, the OTS models the net portfolio value ("NPV") of the Bank over a variety of interest rate scenarios. The NPV is defined as the present value of expected cash flows from existing assets less the present value of expected cash flows from existing liabilities plus the present value of net expected cash inflows from existing off-balance sheet contracts. The model assumes instantaneous, parallel shifts in the U.S. Treasury Securities yield curve up to 300 basis points, and a decline of 200 basis points. The interest rate risk measures used by the OTS include an "Exposure Measure" or "Post-Shock" NPV ratio and a "Sensitivity Measure". The "Post-Shock" NPV ratio is the net present value as a percentage of assets over the various yield curve shifts. A low "Post-Shock" NPV ratio indicates greater exposure to interest rate risk and can result from a low initial NPV ratio or high sensitivity to changes in interest rates. The "Sensitivity Measure" is the decline in the NPV ratio, in basis points, caused by a 2% increase or decrease in rates, whichever produces a larger decline. The following sets forth the Bank's NPV as of March 31, 2006. Net Portfolio Value (Dollars in thousands)
Changes in Net Rates in Dollar Percentage Portfolio Value As Basis Points Amount Change Change a % of Assets Change - ------------ ------- -------- ---------- ------------------ ------ 300 $42,072 $(24,300) (37)% 8.34% (408)bp 200 50,880 (15,492) (23) 9.89 (253)bp 100 59,352 (7,020) (11) 11.32 (110)bp 0 66,372 -- -- 12.42 -- (100) 70,685 4,313 6 13.02 60bp (200) 70,958 4,586 7 12.95 53bp
As of March 31, 2006, the Company's NPV was $66.4 million or 12.42% of the market value of assets. Following a 200 basis point increase in interest rates, the Company's "post shock" NPV was $50.9 million or 9.89% of the market value of assets. The change in the NPV ratio or the Company's sensitivity measure was (2.53)%. ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Our management evaluated, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this report.
