Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Audit Committee, Board of Directors and Stockholders

Blue Valley Ban Corp.

Overland Park, Kansas

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of Blue Valley Ban Corp. as of September 30, 2011, and the related condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 and the condensed consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010. These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2010 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein), and in our report dated March 21, 2011 we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2010 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Note 1:  Basis of Presentation

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly Blue Valley Ban Corp.’s (the “Company”) condensed consolidated financial position as of September 30, 2011, and the condensed consolidated results of its operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, and are of a normal recurring nature. The condensed consolidated balance sheet of the Company, as of December 31, 2010, has been derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of that date.

Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the Company’s annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s December 31, 2010 Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The results of operations for the period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

The report of BKD, LLP commenting upon their review accompanies the condensed consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of Part I.

 

Note 2:  Recent and Future Accounting Pronouncements

On July 21, 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2010-20, Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses. This ASU amends FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 310, Receivables, to improve the disclosures that an entity provides about the credit quality of its financing receivables and the related allowance for credit losses. As a result of these amendments, an entity is required to disaggregate, by portfolio segment or class of financing receivable, certain existing disclosures and provide certain new disclosures about its financing receivables and related allowance for credit losses.

Existing disclosures are amended to require an entity to provide a rollforward schedule of the allowance for credit losses from the beginning of the reporting period to the end of the reporting period on a portfolio segment basis, with the ending balance further disaggregated on the basis of the impairment method. For each disaggregated ending balance in the rollforward schedule, the related recorded investment in financing receivables must be disclosed. The disclosure would include the nonaccrual status of financing receivables by class of financing receivables, as well as the impaired financing receivables by class of financing receivables.

The amendments in the ASU also require an entity to provide the following additional disclosures about its financing receivables: (1) the credit quality indicators of financing receivables at the end of the reporting period by class of financing receivables; (2) the aging of past due financing receivables at the end of the reporting period by class of financing receivables; (3) the nature and extent of troubled debt restructurings that occurred during the period by class of financing receivables and their effect on the allowance for credit losses; (4) the nature and extent of financing receivables modified as troubled debt restructurings within the previous 12 months that defaulted during the reporting period by class of financing receivables and their effect on the allowance for credit losses; and (5) significant purchases and sales of financing receivables during the reporting period disaggregated by portfolio segment.

Note 2:  Recent and Future Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)

For public entities, the disclosures as of the end of a reporting period were effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending on or after December 15, 2010. The disclosures about activity that occurs during a reporting period were effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010. Management has adopted this update and included the disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The adoption of this update had no adverse impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

On January 19, 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-01, Receivables (Topic 310) Deferral of the Effective Date of Disclosures about Troubled Debt Restructurings in Update No. 2010-20. The amendments in this ASU temporarily delayed the effective date of the disclosures about troubled debt restructurings in ASU 2010-20 for public entities. The effective date of the new disclosures about troubled debt restructurings for public entities and the guidance for determining what constitutes a troubled debt restructuring is provided in ASU 2011-02 issued on April 5, 2011.

On April 5, 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-02, A Creditor’s Determination of Whether a Restructuring Is a Troubled Debt Restructuring. The update is intended to assist lenders and other creditors in determining whether a modification of terms meets the criteria to be considered a troubled debt restructuring. The update clarifies that if a borrower does not have access to debt at a market rate for debt with similar characteristics as the restructured debt, the restructuring would be considered at a below-market rate, which may indicate a concession was granted. In that circumstance, a creditor should consider all aspects of the restructuring in determining whether it has granted a concession. If a concession has been granted, the creditor must make a separate assessment about whether the debtor is experiencing financial difficulties to determine if the restructure constitutes a troubled debt restructuring. This update clarifies the guidance on a creditor’s evaluation of whether a debtor is experiencing financial difficulties. The update also clarifies that a creditor is precluded from using the effective interest rate test in the debtor’s guidance on restructuring of payables when evaluating whether a restructuring constitutes a troubled debt restructuring. The guidance was effective for public entities for the first interim or annual period beginning on or after June 15, 2011, and is to be applied retrospectively to modifications that occur on or after the beginning of the year of adoption. The update also required the disclosures about troubled debt restructurings previously deferred in ASU 2011-01 to be disclosed for the interim and annual periods beginning on or after June 15, 2011. Management has adopted this update and included the disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The adoption of this update is further discussed in Note 5, Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses.

On June 16, 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) Presentation of Comprehensive Income. This update is intended to increase the prominence of other comprehensive income in financial statements. The main provision of this update provides that an entity that reports items of other comprehensive income has the option to present comprehensive income in either one or two consecutive financial statements. In the single statement approach the entity must present the components of net income and total net income, the components of other comprehensive income and total other comprehensive income, and a total for comprehensive income. In the two-statement approach, an entity must present the components of net income and total net income in the first statement. That statement must be immediately followed by a financial statement that presents the components of other comprehensive income, a total for other comprehensive income, and a total for comprehensive income. The option in current GAAP that permits the presentation of other comprehensive income in the statement of changes in equity has been eliminated. The amendments for this update should be applied retrospectively.

Note 2:  Recent and Future Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)

For public entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. Management does not anticipate that this update will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Note 3:  Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share represents income available to common stockholders divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each year. Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflects additional potential common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued, as well as any adjustment to income that would result from the assumed issuance. The computation of per share earnings (loss) for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 is as follows:

(A) No shares of stock options, restricted stock or warrants were included in the computation of diluted earnings per share for any period there was a loss.
(B) Warrants to purchase 111,083 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $29.37 per share were outstanding at September 30, 2011 and 2010, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the warrant’s exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common shares, thus making the warrants anti-dilutive. Stock options to purchase 24,375 and 33,875 shares of common stock were outstanding at September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the option’s exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common shares, thus making the options anti-dilutive.

Income available for common stockholders is reduced by dividends declared in the period on preferred stock (whether or not they are paid) and the accretion of the warrants.

Note 5:  Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses (Continued)

The following table presents the credit risk profile of the Company’s loan portfolio based on the rating category and payment activity as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010. These categories are defined as follows:

Pass – loans that exhibit acceptable financial performance, cash flow, leverage and the probability of default is considered low.

Classified – loans are inadequately protected by the current payment capacity of the obligor or by the collateral pledged. These loans are characterized by the distinct probability that the Company will sustain some loss or added expenses if the deficiencies are not corrected.

A loan is considered impaired, in accordance with the impairment accounting guidance (ASC 310-10-35-16), when based on current information and events, it is probable the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal and interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impaired loans include non-performing loans but also include loans modified in troubled debt restructurings where concessions have been granted to borrowers experiencing financial difficulties. These concessions could include a reduction in the interest rate on the loan, payment extensions, forgiveness of principal, forbearance or other actions intended to maximize collection.

The loans restructured and classified as troubled debt restructurings during the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 were primarily renewals of existing debt to troubled borrowers at a below market rate. The loans restructured and classified as troubled debt restructurings during the twelve month period ended December 31, 2010 were renewals of existing debt to troubled borrowers and debt restructurings to interest-only terms or to a below market interest rate.

As a result of adopting the amendments in ASU 2011-02, A Creditor’s Determination of Whether a Restructuring Is a Troubled Debt Restructuring, the Company reassessed all restructurings that occurred on or after the beginning of its current fiscal year (January 1, 2011) for identification as troubled debt restructurings. The Company identified four loans restructured during the current fiscal year not originally classified as troubled debt restructurings totaling $1,066,000 at September 30, 2011; however, these loans were properly classified as non-accrual impaired loans at the time of restructure and thus the allowance for loan losses was measured using the impairment measurement guidance. Accordingly, there was no change in the valuation of these loans.

(A) Due in 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2018; collateralized by various assets including mortgage-backed loans, available-for-sale securities and cash equivalents. The interest rates on the advances range from 0.29% to 4.26%. Federal Home Loan Bank advance availability is determined quarterly and at September 30, 2011, approximately $27,573,000 was available.

In the third quarter of 2010, the Company repaid $42,500,000 of FHLB advances by rolling the net present value of the advances being repaid into the funding cost of $42,500,000 of new advances. A $2,569,000 penalty was associated with paying off the original FHLB advances which is amortized as an adjustment of interest expense over the remaining term of the new FHLB advances using the straight line method. This transaction reduced the effective interest rate, as well as modified the maturity date on these borrowings.

(B) Due in 2033; interest only at LIBOR + 3.25% (3.50% at September 30, 2011 and 3.54% at December 31, 2010) due quarterly; fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Company on a subordinated basis to the extent that the funds are held by the Trust. BVBC Capital Trust II issued and sold $7,500,000 in Preferred Securities to third parties and $232,000 of Common Securities to the Company. The Company may prepay the subordinated debentures beginning in 2008, in whole or in part, at their face value plus accrued interest.
(C) Due in 2035; interest only at LIBOR + 1.60% (1.97% at September 30, 2011 and 1.90% at December 31, 2010) due quarterly; fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Company on a subordinated basis to the extent that the funds are held by the Trust. Subordinated to the trust preferred securities (B) due in 2033. BVBC Capital Trust III issued and sold $11,500,000 in Preferred Securities to third parties and $356,000 in Common Securities to the Company. The Company may prepay the subordinated debentures beginning in 2010, in whole or in part, at their face value plus accrued interest.

Note 7:  Long-Term Debt (Continued)

At the request of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City, quarterly payments are being deferred on the Company’s outstanding trust preferred securities. Under the governing documents of BVBC Capital Trust II and III, the quarterly payments due since April 24, 2009 for BVBC Capital Trust II and March 31, 2009 for BVBC Capital Trust III were deferred. The Company has the right to declare such a deferral for up to 20 consecutive quarterly periods and deferral may only be declared as long as the Company is not then in default under the provisions of the Amended and Restated Trust Agreement. During the deferral period, interest on the indebtedness continues to accrue and the unpaid interest is compounded. For BVBC Capital Trust III, the Company must also accrue additional interest that is equal to the three month LIBOR rate plus 1.60% during the deferral period. All accrued interest and compounded interest must be paid at the end of the deferral period.

For both BVBC Capital Trust II and BVBC Capital Trust III, as long as the deferral period continues, the Company is prohibited from: (i) declaring or paying any dividend on any of its capital stock, which would include both its common stock and the outstanding preferred stock issued to the United States Department of Treasury (the “Treasury”), or (ii) making any payment on any debt security that is ranked pari passu with the debt securities issued by the respective trusts. Because the Preferred Shares issued under the U.S. Treasury’s Capital Purchase Plan (the “CPP”) are subordinate to the trust preferred securities, the Company will be restricted from paying dividends on these Preferred Shares until such time as all trust preferred dividends have been brought current.

Aggregate annual maturities of long-term debt at September 30, 2011 are as follows:

Note 8:  Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with income tax accounting guidance (ASC 740, Income Taxes). The income tax accounting guidance results in two components of income tax expense: current and deferred. Current income tax expense reflects taxes to be paid or refunded for the current period by applying the provisions of the enacted tax law to the taxable income or excess of deductions over revenues. The Company determines deferred income taxes using the liability (or balance sheet) method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is based on the tax effects of the differences between the book and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and enacted changes in tax rates and laws are recognized in the period in which they occur. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of evidence available, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. The valuation allowance is a contra asset account that reduces the deferred tax asset to its expected realizable value and is based on management’s expectation of future taxable income. As of September 30, 2011, the Company had a valuation allowance of $1,482,000, which was recorded in 2011 and has lowered the Company’s effective tax rate.

Note 9:  Derivative Instruments

The Company has commitments outstanding to extend credit on residential mortgages that have not closed prior to the end of the period. As the Company enters into commitments to originate these loans, it also enters into commitments to sell the loans in the secondary market on a best-efforts basis. The Company acquires such commitments to reduce interest rate risk on mortgage loans in the process of origination and mortgage loans held for sale. These commitments to originate or sell loans on a best efforts basis are considered derivative instruments under ASC 815. This standard requires the Company to recognize all derivative instruments in the balance sheet and to measure those instruments at fair value. As a result of measuring the fair value of the commitments to originate loans, the Company recorded an increase of $22,000 in other assets, a decrease in other liabilities of $15,000 and an increase in other income of $37,000 for the three month period ended September 30, 2011. The Company recorded an increase in other assets of $21,000, a decrease in other liabilities of $9,000, and an increase in other income of $30,000 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011.

Additionally, the Company has commitments to sell loans that have closed prior to the end of the period on a best efforts basis. Due to the mark to market adjustment on commitments to sell loans held for sale the Company recorded a decrease in other assets of $54,000, an increase in other liabilities of $1,000 and a decrease in other income of $55,000 for the three month period ended September 30, 2011. The Company recorded a decrease in other assets of $294,000, an increase in other liabilities of $1,000 and a decrease in other income of $295,000 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011.

Note 9:  Derivative Instruments (Continued)

Total mortgage loans in the process of origination amounted to $3,911,000 at September 30, 2011. Related forward commitments to sell mortgage loans amounted to approximately $4,303,000 at September 30, 2011.

The balance of derivative instruments related to commitments to originate and sell loans at September 30, 2011, is disclosed in Note 11, Disclosures About Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities.

Note 10:  Fair Value Option

The Company has elected to measure loans held for sale at fair value in accordance with ASC 825, Fair Value Option. This standard permits an entity to choose to measure many financial instruments and other items at fair value. An entity will report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings at each reporting date. Loans held for sale is made up entirely of mortgage loans held for immediate sale in the secondary market with servicing released. These loans are sold prior to origination at a contracted price to an outside investor on a best efforts basis and remain on the Company’s balance sheet for a short period of time (typically 30 to 60 days). It is management’s opinion given the short-term nature of these loans, that fair value provides a reasonable measure of the economic value of these assets. In addition, carrying such loans at fair value eliminates some measure of volatility created by the timing of sales proceeds from outside investors, which typically occur in the month following origination.

The difference between the aggregate fair value and the aggregate unpaid principal balance of loans held for sale was a gain of $37,000 at September 30, 2011. The gain from fair value changes included in loans held for sale fee income were $66,000 and $181,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively. Interest income on loans held for sale is included in interest and fees on loans in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations. See Note 11 for additional disclosures regarding fair value of mortgage loans held for sale.

Note 11:  Disclosures About Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements, defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

 

  Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

  Level 2 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 for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

 

  Level 3 Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis and recognized in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy.

Available-for-Sale Securities

Where quoted market prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 securities include exchange traded equities. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or discounted cash flows. Level 2 securities include U.S. Government sponsored agencies. In certain cases where Level 1 or Level 2 inputs are not available, securities are classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy and include other less liquid securities.

Mortgage Loans Held for Sale

Mortgage loans held for sale are valued using market prices for loans with similar characteristics. This measurement is classified as Level 2 within the hierarchy.

Commitments to Originate Loans and Forward Sales Commitments

Commitments to originate loans and forward sales commitments are valued using a valuation model which considers differences between quoted prices for loans with similar characteristics in the secondary market and the committed rates. The valuation model includes assumptions which adjust the price for the likelihood that the commitment will ultimately result in a closed loan. These measurements are significant unobservable inputs and are classified as Level 3 within the hierarchy.

Note 11:  Disclosures About Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities (Continued)

Impaired Loans (Collateral Dependent)

Loans for which it is probable that the Company will not collect all principal and interest due according to the contractual terms are measured for impairment. Allowable methods for determining the amount of impairment include using the fair value of the collateral for collateral dependent loans.

If the impaired loan is identified as collateral dependent, then the fair value method of measuring the amount of impairment is utilized. This method requires obtaining a current independent appraisal of the collateral and applying a discount factor to the value. Impaired loans that are collateral dependent are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy when impairment is determined using the fair value method.

Foreclosed Assets Held for Sale

Foreclosed assets held for sale are carried at the fair value less costs to sell at the date of foreclosure, establishing a new cost basis. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management and the assets are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.

The following table presents the fair value measurement of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010:

Note 11:  Disclosures About Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities (Continued)

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For these short-term instruments, the carrying amount approximates fair value.

Loans

The fair value of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the market rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. Loans with similar characteristics were aggregated for purposes of the calculations. The carrying amount of accrued interest approximates its fair value.

Federal Home Loan Bank Stock, Federal Reserve Bank Stock, and other securities

The carrying amounts for these securities approximate their fair value.

Deposits

The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts, NOW accounts and certain money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amount). The fair value of fixed maturity time deposits is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. The carrying amount of accrued interest payable approximates its fair value.

Securities Sold Under Agreement to Repurchase and Other Interest-Bearing Liabilities

For these short-term instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Long-Term Debt

Rates currently available to the Company for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities are used to estimate fair value of existing debt.

Commitments to Extend Credit, Letters of Credit and Lines of Credit

The fair value of commitments is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the counterparties. For fixed rate loan commitments, fair value also considers the difference between current levels of interest rates and the committed rates. The fair value of letters of credit and lines of credit is based on fees currently charged for similar agreements or on the estimated cost to terminate or otherwise settle the obligations with the counterparties at the reporting date.

Note 12:  Dividends on Preferred Shares

At the request of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City, the Company notified the United States Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury”) of its intention to defer the quarterly dividend payments on the Preferred Shares due to the Treasury since May 15, 2009. As part of the Capital Purchase Plan, the Company entered into a letter agreement with the Treasury on December 5, 2008, which includes a Securities Purchase Agreement-Standard Terms. As part of the agreement, dividends compound if they accrue and are not paid. Failure by the Company to pay the Preferred Share dividend is not an event of default. However, a failure to pay a total of six Preferred Share dividends, whether or not consecutive, gives the holders of the Preferred Shares the right to elect two directors to the Company’s Board of Directors. That right would continue until the Company pays all dividends in arrears. The dividend payment due on August 15, 2010 was the sixth dividend payment deferred by the Company. At this time, the Treasury has not elected any directors to serve on the Company’s Board of Directors; however, in November 2010 the Treasury assigned an observer to attend the Company’s board meetings. The Company has accrued for the dividends and interest and has every intention to bring the obligation current as soon as permitted. As of September 30, 2011, the Company had accrued $2,895,000 for dividends and interest on outstanding Preferred Shares.

General

Critical Accounting Policies

Our critical accounting policies are largely prescribed by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. After a review of our policies, we determined that accounting for the allowance for loan losses and income taxes are deemed critical accounting policies because of the valuation techniques used and the sensitivity of certain financial statement amounts to the methods, as well as the assumptions and estimates underlying these policies. Accounting for these critical areas requires subjective and complex judgments that could be subject to revision as new information becomes available. Further description of our critical accounting policies can be found in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

Results of Operations

Three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010. Net loss for the quarter ended September 30, 2011, was $2.0 million compared to net income of $382,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2010, representing a decrease of $2.4 million, or 630.10%. The loss per share on a diluted basis was $0.82 for the three months ended September 30, 2011, which represented a decrease of 2,150.00%, compared to diluted earnings per share of $0.04 in the same period of 2010. The Company’s annualized returns on average assets and average stockholders’ equity declined for the three month period ended September 30, 2011 to negative 1.34% and negative 28.37%, compared to 0.20% and 1.20%, respectively, for the same period in 2010.

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results Of Operations

 

The Company experienced improvement in net interest income by $450,000, or 10.77%, to $4.6 million for the three month period ended September 30, 2011, as compared to $4.2 million earned during the same period in 2010. The increase was due to a decline in the interest expense, which decreased $1.3 million, or 36.45%, from the same period in 2010, as a result of a decrease in rates paid on deposits as market rates have declined and a decline in the average balance of time deposits. In 2010 and 2011 the Company had funds from various time deposit promotions mature, and as those higher rate time deposits matured they were renewed at lower market rates. As the renewal rate for these deposits was much lower, some deposits were not renewed. In addition, the Company entered into a restructuring transaction during the third quarter of 2010 of $42.5 million of its $82.5 million in Federal Home Loan Bank advances. This transaction reduced the effective interest rate, as well as modified the maturity date on these borrowings. This increase in net interest income was partially offset by the decline in interest income by $816,000, or 10.66%, as compared to the same period in 2010. The lower interest income was primarily a result of a decline in the average outstanding loan balances by $50.3 million, or 9.94%, for the three month period ended September 30, 2011, as compared to the prior year period, as a result of loan payoffs, lower loan origination volume due to the current economic environment, and loan foreclosures.

The provision for loan losses was $700,000 for the three month period ended September 30, 2011, compared to no provision for the same period in the prior year. The provision for this period was primarily the result of the decline in credit quality of one developer portfolio. While the Company experienced an increase in the provision for loan losses during the quarter related to construction loans, the Company has experienced improvement in the loan portfolio with a reduction in non-performing loans by $19.2 million, or 63.17%, since December 31, 2010, as management continues to work on improving the credit quality of the loan portfolio.

Non-interest income decreased $856,000 to $1.7 million, or 33.27%, for the three month period ended September 30, 2011, as compared to the same period in 2010. The decline was the result of lower loans held for sale fee income during the third quarter of 2011 of $332,000, or 32.97%, as compared with the third quarter of 2010. The decrease in loans held for sale fee income was a result of a decline in residential mortgage loan origination and refinancing volume due to the economic environment. The Company realized gains of $342,000 on the sale of $14.0 million in available-for-sale securities during the three month period ended September 30, 2010; however, no securities were sold during the same period in 2011. Other income decreased $184,000, or 42.89%, primarily a result of the effect of recording the net fair value of certain mortgage loan commitments. The net fair value of certain mortgage loan-related commitments recorded for the three month period ended September 30, 2011 was a loss of $18,000 compared to a gain of $132,000 for the same period in 2010.

Non-interest expense increased $1.5 million, or 24.93%, for the three month period ended September 30, 2011, as compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase in non-interest expense was attributed to higher other operating expenses of $1.7 million, or 68.90%, as a result of the Company recording a provision for other real estate owned of $1.5 million compared to a provision of $124,000 for the same period in 2010. The provision for other real estate was the result of a decline in real estate value related to specific foreclosed properties. This increase was partially offset by lower salaries and employee benefits of $151,000, or 5.09%. Salaries and employee benefits have decreased as a result of lower commissions paid on mortgage loans

originated and sold in the secondary market due to the decline in the volume of mortgage loan originations and refinancing for the three months ended September 30, 2011, as compared to the same period in the prior year. In addition, net occupancy expense decreased by $22,000, or 3.13%, compared to the same period in 2010.

Nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010. Net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, was $4.6 million, compared to net loss of $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, representing an increase of $2.9 million, or 170.17%. Diluted loss per share was negative $1.93 during the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to negative $0.91 in the same period of 2010, an increase of 112.09%. The Company’s annualized return on average assets and average stockholders’ equity declined for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 to negative 0.89% and negative 21.43%, compared to negative 0.28% and negative 8.96%, respectively, for the same period in 2010.

One of the primary factors contributing to the loss in the current results for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 was in an increase in the provision for loan losses. The provision for loan losses for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 was $2.7 million, compared to $1.5 million for the same period in the prior year, an increase of $1.2 million, or 86.21%. The provision for this period was primarily the result of the decline in credit quality of a developer portfolio and the decline in real estate value on two commercial real estate properties and one construction property. While the Company experienced an increase in the provision for loan losses related to construction and commercial real estate loans, the Company has experienced improvement in the loan portfolio with a reduction in non-performing loans by $19.2 million, or 63.17%, since December 31, 2010, as management continues to work on improving the credit quality of the loan portfolio.

Net interest income increased $1.3 million, or 11.46%, for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011, as compared to the same period in 2010. The increase in net interest income was due to a decline in the interest expense, which decreased $4.2 million, or 37.20%, from the same period in 2010 as a result of a decrease in rates paid on deposits as market rates have declined and a decline in the average balance of time deposits. In 2010 and 2011 the Company had funds from various time deposit promotions mature, and as those higher rate time deposits matured they were renewed at lower market rates. As the renewal rate for these deposits was much lower, some deposits were not renewed. In addition, the Company entered into a restructuring transaction during the third quarter of 2010 of $42.5 million of its $82.5 million in Federal Home Loan Bank advances. This transaction reduced the effective interest rate, as well as modified the maturity date on these borrowings. This increase in net interest income was partially offset by the decline in interest income by $2.9 million, or 12.62%, as compared to the same period in 2010. The lower interest income was primarily a result of a decline in the average outstanding loan balances by $54.7 million, or 10.44%, for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011, as compared to the prior year period, as a result of loan payoffs, lower loan origination volume due to the current economic environment, and loan foreclosures. Interest income has also declined as a result of a decline in the average balance of available-for-sale securities by $19.7 million. Available-for-sale securities were sold in 2010 to reduce the long-term maturity risk within the portfolio.

Non-interest income declined by $1.3 million, or 22.24%, for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011. This was the result of a decrease in loans held for sale fee income of $878,000, or 36.72%, due to a decline in residential mortgage loan origination and refinancing volume as a result of the economic environment. The Company realized gains of $437,000 on the sale of $19.0 million in available-for-sale securities for the nine months ended September 30, 2010; however, no securities were sold during the same period in 2011. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in service fees of $31,000, or 1.33%.

Non-interest expense increased $1.0 million, or 5.46%, for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011, as compared to the same period in 2010. The increase was attributed to higher operating expenses of $1.6 million, or 20.60%, as compared to the same period in 2010. Other operating expenses increased due to the Company recording a provision for other real estate owned of $2.1 million compared to a provision of $302,000 for the same period in 2010 due to a decline in real estate value related to specific foreclosed properties. This increase was partially offset by a decline in salaries and employee benefits by $447,000, or 5.08%, as a result of lower commissions paid during the period on mortgage loans originated and sold in the secondary market due to decreased origination volume. In addition, occupancy expense decreased $141,000, or 6.70%, as a result of lower repairs and maintenance expense and lower depreciation as a result of fewer fixed asset purchases and improvements.

Net Interest Income

Three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010. Fully tax equivalent (FTE) net interest income for the three month period ended September 30, 2011, was $4.6 million, an increase of $450,000, or 10.77%, from $4.2 million for the three month period ended September 30, 2010.

FTE interest income for the current year third quarter was $6.8 million, a decrease of $816,000, or 10.66%, from $7.7 million in the prior year third quarter. This decrease was primarily a result of a decline in average balances on earning assets, specifically lower average balances on outstanding loans, federal funds sold and available-for-sale securities. The overall yield on average earning assets increased 27 basis points to 4.54% during the three month period ending September 30, 2011, compared to 4.27% during the same period in 2010. The increase in yield is attributed to the decline in the volume of loans on non-accrual at September 30, 2011 as compared to the prior year period. Interest income on loans declined $591,000, or 8.49% for the three month period ended September 30, 2011 as compared to the prior year period as a result of the decline in the average outstanding balance of loans by $50.3 million, or 9.94%, as a result of loan payoffs, lower loan origination volume due to the current economic environment and loan foreclosures. Average available federal funds sold and other short-term investments decreased $49.6 million, or 46.64%. The decrease in average federal funds sold and other short-term investments was a result of a decline in average interest-bearing deposits, primarily time deposits as discussed below. Interest income on available-for-sale securities decreased $155,000, or 30.51%, as a result of a decrease in the average balance of available-for-sale securities by $11.6 million, or 13.65%, over the same period in the prior year. Available-for-sale securities were sold during the second, third and fourth quarter of 2010 to reduce the long term maturity risk within the portfolio as a result of the current rate environment. As higher yielding securities of $115.0 million in 2010 and $39.0 million in 2011 were called or matured, they were invested at lower yields due to the current rate environment and the securities available for investing, thus resulting in a decline in interest income.

Interest expense for the current year third quarter was $2.2 million, a decrease of $1.3 million, or 36.45%, from $3.5 million in the prior year third quarter. The decline in interest expense resulted from a decrease in the rate paid on average interest-bearing liabilities resulting from the impact of the lower market interest rates on interest-bearing demand accounts, savings and money market deposits, time deposits and long-term debt. The rate paid on total average interest-bearing

liabilities decreased to 1.70% for the three month period ending September 30, 2011, compared to 2.20% in the same period of 2010, a decrease of 50 basis points. Total average interest-bearing liabilities decreased $111.2 million, or 17.77%, to $514.4 million during the third quarter of 2011, compared to $625.6 million during the prior year period. The decrease was attributed to a decrease in time deposits. Average time deposits decreased $115.5 million, or 38.88%, partially as a result of the Company not renewing $30.9 million of brokered deposits as they matured during 2010 and $6.8 million in brokered deposits that matured in 2011. The Company replaced brokered funds with core deposits by generating increased interest in our Performance Checking product and in February 2011 started offering a new product, Ultimate Checking. The Company also had several higher rate time deposit promotions mature in 2010 and 2011 and were renewed at a lower rate. As the renewal rate for these deposits was much lower, some time deposits were not renewed. The decrease in average time deposits was offset by increases in average interest-bearing demand accounts by $7.1 million, or 5.65%, as a result of the growth experienced in balances of our Performance and Ultimate Checking products. While the balances in interest-bearing demand deposits have increased, the interest expense associated with these accounts has declined $180,000, or 33.58%, as a result of lowering the interest rate paid on the Performance and Ultimate Checking accounts in response to a decline in rates paid in the market. Interest expense for long-term debt is lower as a result of the Company’s restructuring transaction of $42.5 million of its $82.5 million Federal Home Loan Bank advances during the third quarter of 2010, thus lowering overall interest expense on these borrowings.

Nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010. FTE net interest income for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011, was $13.0 million, an increase of $1.3 million, or 11.46%, for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010.

FTE interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, was $20.1 million, a decrease of $2.9 million, or 12.62%, from $23.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. This decrease was a result of a decline in average earning assets, specifically lower average balances on outstanding loans, federal funds sold and available-for-sale securities. However, the overall yield on average earning assets increased by 19 basis points to 4.39% for the period ending September 30, 2011, compared to 4.20% for the prior year period. The increase in yield is attributed to the decline in the volume of loans on non-accrual at September 30, 2011 as compared to the prior year period. Interest income on loans declined $2.1 million, or 10.05%, for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011, as compared to the prior year period, as a result of lower average outstanding balance of loans by $54.7 million, or 10.44%, as a result of loan payoffs, lower loan origination volume due to the current economic environment and loan foreclosures. Average federal funds sold and other short-term investments decreased $43.5 million, or 40.01%. The decrease in average federal funds sold and other short-term investments was a result of a decline in average interest-bearing deposits, primarily time deposits, as discussed below. Interest income on available-for-sale securities decreased $624,000, or 40.44%, as a result of a decrease in the average balance on available-for-sale securities by $19.7 million, or 22.11%, over the same period in the prior year. Available-for-sale securities were sold during the second, third and fourth quarter of 2010 to reduce the long term maturity risk within the portfolio as a result of the current rate environment. In addition, as higher yielding securities of $115.0 million during the twelve months ended December 31, 2010 and $39.0 million in 2011 were called or matured, they were invested at lower yields due to the current rate environment and the securities available for investing, thus resulting in a decline in interest income.

Interest expense for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011, was $7.2 million, a decrease of $4.2 million, or 37.20%, from $11.4 million in the same period of the prior year. The decline in interest expense resulted from a decrease in the rate paid on average interest-bearing liabilities resulting from the impact of lower market interest rates on interest-bearing demand accounts, savings and money market deposits, time deposits and long-term debt. The rate paid on total average interest-bearing liabilities decreased 52 basis points to 1.81% during the nine month period ending September 30, 2011, compared to 2.33% during the same period in 2010. Average interest-bearing liabilities decreased $125.9 million, or 19.24%, to $528.2 million during the nine month period ending September 30, 2011, compared to $654.1 million during the prior year period. The decrease was attributed to decreases in time deposits and savings and money market deposits. Average time deposits decreased $129.7 million, or 39.90%, partially as a result of the Company not renewing $30.9 million of brokered deposits as they matured during 2010 and $6.8 million in brokered deposits that matured during 2011. The Company replaced brokered funds with core deposits by generating increased interest in our Performance Checking product and in February 2011 started offering a new product, Ultimate Checking. The Company also had several higher rate time deposit promotions mature in 2010 and 2011 and were renewed at a lower rate. As the renewal rate for these deposits was much lower, some time deposits were not renewed. Average savings and money market deposits decreased $4.5 million, or 5.25%, as customers have moved their funds into interest-bearing demand accounts, specifically Performance and Ultimate Checking accounts, as these products offer a more attractive rate. Interest-bearing demand deposits have increased $10.8 million, or 8.73%, however the interest expense associated with these accounts has declined $529,000, or 29.37%, as a result of lowering the interest rate paid on the Performance and Ultimate Checking accounts in response to a decline in the rates paid in the market. Interest expense for long-term debt is lower as a result of the Company’s restructuring transaction of $42.5 million of the $82.5 million Federal Home Loan bank advances during the third quarter of 2010, thus lowering overall interest expense on these borrowings.

Average Balance Sheets. The following table sets forth, for the periods and as of the dates indicated, information regarding our average balances of assets and liabilities as well as the dollar amounts of FTE interest income from interest-earning assets and interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities and the resultant yields or costs. Ratio, yield and rate information are based on average daily balances where available; otherwise, average monthly balances have been used. Non-accrual loans are included in the calculation of average balances for loans for the periods indicated. For explanation of changes between periods reported within the table see Net Interest Income and the Financial Condition sections under Item 2.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

Provision for Loan Losses

The Company makes provisions for loan losses in amounts that management deems necessary to maintain the allowance for loan losses at an appropriate level. The allowance for loan losses is based upon the analysis of several factors, including general economic conditions, analysis of impaired loans, the general reserve factors, changes in loan mix, classified loans to total risk weighted capital and current and historical charge-offs by loan type. Historical charge off information currently utilized is based on three year weighted average of net charge offs by loan type with more weight given to more current data due to the current economic environment. The Company’s credit administration function performs monthly analyses on the loan portfolio to assess and report on risk levels, delinquencies, internal ranking system and overall credit exposure. Management and the Bank’s Board of Directors review the allowance for loan losses monthly, considering such factors as current and projected economic conditions, loan growth, the composition of the loan portfolio, loan trends and classifications, and other factors. Economic conditions monitored include but are not limited to: Johnson County, KS unemployment rate; consumer confidence; foreclosure rates; vacant property rates; stock market performance; inflation; and interest rates. The allowance for loan losses represents our best estimate of probable losses that have been incurred as of the respective balance sheet dates.

The provision for loan losses recorded for the third quarter of 2011 was $700,000 compared to no provision in the same period of 2010. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 the provision for loan losses recorded was $2.7 million compared to $1.5 million for the same period in 2010, an increase of $1.2 million, or 86.21%. Management assessed the loan portfolio, specifically the non-performing loans, on a credit by credit basis, to assess the reserve requirement. Based on analysis of the loan portfolio, a provision for loan losses was deemed necessary for the three and nine month period ended September 30, 2011. The provision for this period was primarily the result of the decline in credit quality of a developer portfolio and the decline in real estate value on two commercial real estate properties and one construction property. While the Company experienced an increase in the provision for loan losses related to construction and commercial real estate loans, the Company has experienced improvement within the loan portfolio with a reduction in non-performing loans by $19.2 million, or 63.17%, since December 31, 2010 and $20.4 million, or 64.63% since September 30, 2010. The Company has also experienced a reduction in loans past due greater than 30 days, excluding the non-performing loans above, by $2.5 million, or 53.09%, since September 30, 2010. Management believes they have identified the significant non-performing loans and will continue to aggressively pursue collection of these loans. If the adverse real estate and construction industry and general economic conditions are more prolonged than management anticipates, the Company could experience higher than anticipated loan losses in the future.

Non-interest income decreased $856,000, or 33.27%, to $1.7 million during the three month period ended September 30, 2011, from $2.6 million during the three month period ended September 30, 2010. Non-interest income for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 was $4.6 million, a decrease of $1.3 million, or 22.24%, from $5.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. The decrease was the result of lower mortgage loans held for sale fee income of $332,000, or 32.97%, for the three months ended September 30, 2011, and $878,000, or 36.72%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, due to lower residential mortgage loan origination and refinancing volume during 2011 as a result of the economic environment. Sustainability of the level of our loans held for sale fee income is primarily dependent on the economy and interest rate environment, and secondarily dependent on our ability to develop new products and alternative delivery channels. Also contributing to the decrease in non-interest income was a decline in service fee income, specifically non-sufficient funds (NSF) charges and service fees. NSF and service charges fee income decreased by $26,000, or 10.44%, for the three months ended September 30, 2011, and decreased $140,000, or 16.93%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 due to fewer overdraft items by our customers and a decrease in account service charges on commercial accounts.

Other changes reflected in non-interest income include an increase in other service charges income, which includes income from trust services, investment brokerage, merchant bankcard processing and debit card processing, by $28,000, or 5.13%, for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and an increase of $171,000, or 11.39%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010. The increase was primarily attributed to income generated from signature based debit card transactions associated with our Performance and Ultimate Checking products and increased activity in trust services. For the three months ended September 30, 2011, other non-interest income decreased by $184,000, or 42.89%, as compared to the same period in the prior year. This decrease was due to losses realized as a result of recording the net fair value of mortgage loan-related commitments of $18,000 compared to a gain of $133,000 for the same period in 2010. Other non-interest income decreased by $22,000, or 3.07%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, due to the effect of recording the net fair value of certain mortgage loan commitments. The net fair value of mortgage loan-related commitments recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was a loss of $264,000 compared to a loss of $46,000 for the same period in 2010. The fair value on these commitments will fluctuate based on the market rates for mortgage loans. This decrease was partially offset by higher gains realized on the sale of foreclosed assets as a result of the sale of several larger other real estate properties during 2011 and increased rental income from properties held in foreclosed assets as compared to prior year period.

Non-interest expense increased by $1.5 million, or 24.93%, to $7.7 million during the three month period ended September 30, 2011, compared to $6.1 million during the prior year period. The change was attributed to an increase in other operating expenses of $1.7 million, or 68.90%, as a result of the Company recording a provision for other real estate owned of $1.5 million compared to a provision of $124,000 for the same period in 2010 due to a decline in real estate value related to specific foreclosed properties. In addition, expenses related to other real estate owned increased $355,000, or 126.72%, as compared to the same period in 2010. The increase in other operating expenses was partially offset by a decrease in FDIC deposit insurance assessment as a result of a decrease in the Company’s assessment base. The increase in non-interest expense was partially offset by a decrease in salaries and employee benefits of $151,000, or 5.09%, due to lower commissions paid during the period on residential mortgage loans originated and sold in the secondary market as a result of the decline in the volume of mortgage loan originations and refinancing for the period. In addition, net occupancy expense decreased $22,000, or 3.13%, due to lower depreciation expense, telephone and repairs and maintenance expense.

For the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 non-interest expense increased $1.0 million, or 5.46%, to $19.7 million compared to $18.7 million at September 30, 2010. The change was attributed to an increase in other operating expense of $1.6 million, or 20.60%, for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 compared to the same period in the prior year. This increase was the result of the Company recording a provision for other real estate owned of $2.1 million compared to a provision of $302,000 for the same period in 2010 due to a decline in real estate value related to specific foreclosed properties. The Company could experience further provisions for other real estate owned if properties decline in value as they are periodically reassessed. The increase in other operating expenses was partially offset by decrease in FDIC deposit insurance assessment as a result of a decrease in the Company’s assessment base; as well the Company experienced a decrease in repossessed asset and data processing expenses. The increase in non-interest expense was partially offset by a decrease in salaries and employee benefits of $447,000, or 5.08%, as a result of lower commissions paid during the period on residential mortgage loans originated and sold in the secondary market due to the decline in the volume of mortgage loans originations and refinancing for the period. In addition, net occupancy expense decreased $141,000, or 6.70%, for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011, due to lower depreciation expense, telephone and repairs and maintenance expense.

Financial Condition

Total assets for the Company at September 30, 2011, were $677.5 million, a decrease of $45.6 million, or 6.30%, compared to $723.1 million at December 31, 2010. Deposits were $503.0 million compared with $541.2 million at December 31, 2010, a decrease of $38.2 million, or 7.06%. Stockholders’ equity was $51.9 million at September 30, 2011, compared with $57.2 million at December 31, 2010, a decrease of $5.3 million, or 9.19%.

Investments. Available-for-sale securities at September 30, 2011, totaled $65.0 million, reflecting a 2.11% increase from $63.6 million at December 31, 2010. The increase was a result of the purchase of $39.9 million in available-for-sale securities during 2011 to replace the $39.0 million securities called during the year.

Loans Held for Sale. Mortgage loans held for sale at September 30, 2011, totaled $4.3 million, a decrease of $3.9 million, or 47.28%, compared to $8.2 million at December 31, 2010. The volume of mortgage loans held for sale originated during 2011 slowed as a result of the economic environment.

Loans. Loans at September 30, 2011, totaled $455.4 million, reflecting a decrease of $37.1 million, or 7.53%, compared to $492.5 million at December 31, 2010. The decrease in the loan portfolio was attributed to loans paying off, lower loan originations due to the current economic conditions and loan foreclosures. The loan to deposit ratio at September 30, 2011, was 90.53% compared to 90.99% at December 31, 2010.

Non-performing assets consist primarily of loans past due 90 days or more, non-accrual loans and foreclosed assets. Generally, loans are placed on non-accrual status at 90 days past due and interest accrued to date is considered a loss, unless the loan is well-secured and in the process of collection. When interest accrual is discontinued, all unpaid accrued interest is reversed against interest income. The interest on these loans is generally accounted for on a cost recovery basis, meaning interest is not recognized until the past due balance has been collected. Loans may be returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

Non-performing loans decreased 63.17% to $11.2 million at September 30, 2011, from $30.4 million at December 31, 2010. The decrease in non-performing loans was attributed to decreases in non-performing commercial real estate loans by $7.9 million, construction loans by $6.3 million and residential real estate loans by $3.2 million since December 31, 2010. The decrease in commercial real estate loans was the result of the foreclosure on one credit relationship and the result of two credit relationships being upgraded to pass rated loans as a result of improvement in the credit quality of the borrowers and the borrowers have shown a history of paying as agreed. The decrease in construction loans was primarily the result of the foreclosure on two builder portfolios and the decrease in residential real estate was primarily the result of the foreclosure on two builder portfolios. We closely monitor non-performing credit relationships and our philosophy has been to value non-performing loans at their estimated collectible value and to aggressively manage these situations. Foreclosed assets held for sale were $28.7 million as of September 30, 2011, as compared to $20.1 million at December 31, 2010. The Company has sold $3.7 million in foreclosed assets and has transferred $13.9 million in loans to foreclosed property during 2011. The Company is actively marketing these properties and working to reduce the balance of foreclosed assets held for sale.

Deposits. Deposits decreased by $38.2 million, or 7.06%, to $503.0 million as of September 30, 2011, compared with $541.2 million at December 31, 2010. The decrease was primarily attributed to a decrease in time deposits of $52.7 million, or 23.76%. During the third quarter of 2011, the Company had a higher rate time deposit promotion mature and approximately $22.9 million were not renewed at this time due to the rate environment. As a result of lower time deposit rates, as time deposits mature some have not renewed or have invested their funds in a higher yielding product such as our Performance or Ultimate Checking accounts. The Company also did not renew $6.8 million in brokered deposits that matured in January 2011. The Company continues to work on replacing brokered funds with core deposits by generating interest in the Performance and Ultimate checking products, as well as other products offered by the Company.

Liquidity. Liquidity is measured by a financial institution’s ability to raise funds through deposits, borrowed funds, capital, or the sale of marketable assets, such as residential mortgage loans or a portfolio of SBA loans. Other sources of liquidity, including cash flow from the repayment of loans, are also considered in determining whether liquidity is satisfactory. Liquidity is also achieved through growth of core deposits and liquid assets, and accessibility to the money and capital markets. The funds are used to meet deposit withdrawals, maintain reserve requirements, fund loans and operate the organization. Core deposits, defined as demand deposits, interest-bearing transaction accounts, savings deposits and time deposits less than $250,000 (excluding brokered deposits), were 89.30% and 86.48% of our total deposits at September 30, 2011, and December 31, 2010, respectively. Although classified as brokered deposits for regulatory purpose, funds placed through the Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service (“CDARS”) are Bank customer relationships that management views as core deposits. If CDARS deposits under $250,000 placed in the CDARS program are added back, our core deposit ratio would be 93.95% at September 30, 2011, and 91.83% at December 31, 2010. Generally, the Company’s funding strategy is to fund loan growth with core deposits and utilize alternative sources of funds such as advances/borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Topeka (“FHLB”), as well as the brokered deposit market to provide for additional liquidity needs and take advantage of opportunities for lower costs. If needed, FHLB borrowings are used to fund originations of mortgage loans held for sale. Advance availability with the FHLB fluctuates depending on levels of available collateral and is determined daily with regards to mortgage loans held for sale and quarterly with regards to overall availability and at September 30, 2011, approximately $27.6 million was available.

In addition, the Company uses other forms of short-term debt for cash management and liquidity management purposes on a limited basis. These forms of borrowings include federal funds purchased and revolving lines of credit. The Bank has a line of credit with the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City. The availability on the line of credit fluctuates depending on the level of available collateral, which includes commercial and commercial real estate loans. Availability on the line of credit at September 30, 2011, was approximately $25.2 million. Advances are made at the discretion of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City.

The Company also uses the brokered market as a source of liquidity. As of September 30, 2011, excluding CDARS as described above, the Company had approximately $10.1 million in brokered deposits compared to $16.9 million at December 31, 2010, a decrease of $6.8 million, or 40.29%. The decrease in brokered deposits was the result of the Company not renewing the deposits as they matured during the first quarter of 2011.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

As a result of an agreement with the Federal Reserve Bank and the Office of the State Banking Commissioner of Kansas, prior regulatory approval is currently required prior to the payment of dividends by the Bank. In prior years, the Company has relied on dividends from the Bank to assist in making debt service and dividend payments. The Company has also agreed at the request of the Federal Reserve Bank to defer interest payments and not pay dividends on trust preferred securities or any of its equity securities without prior regulatory approval in an effort to preserve capital. As a result, the Company has deferred the quarterly payment of interest related to trust preferred securities of BVBC Capital Trust III due since March 31, 2009 and the quarterly payment of interest related to trust preferred securities of BVBC Capital Trust II due since April, 24, 2009. In addition, at the request of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City, the Company notified the United States Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury”) of its intention to defer the quarterly dividend payments on the Preferred Shares since May 15, 2009. As part of the agreement with the Treasury, dividends compound if they accrue and are not paid. Failure by the Company to pay the Preferred Share dividend is not an event of default. However, a failure to pay a total of six Preferred Share dividends, whether or not consecutive, gives the holders of the Preferred Shares the right to elect two directors to the Company’s Board of Directors. That right would continue until the Company pays all dividends in arrears. The dividend payment due August 15, 2010 was the sixth dividend payment deferred by the Company. At this time, the Treasury has not elected any directors to serve on the Company’s Board of Directors; however, they have assigned an observer to attend the Company’s board meetings. The Company has accrued for interest and the dividends and has every intention to bring the obligation current as soon as permitted. As of September 30, 2011, the Company has accrued $5.0 million for interest and dividends on outstanding trust preferred securities and Preferred Shares. There are other ancillary expenses related to the legal and accounting fees which could be incurred without the ability of the Bank to dividend to the Company. The Company currently maintains cash balances sufficient to cover such ancillary expenses for several years based on historical expense amounts.

The Company’s Asset-Liability Management Committee utilizes a variety of liquidity monitoring tools, including an asset/liability modeling software, to analyze and manage the Company’s liquidity. Management has established internal guidelines and analytical tools to measure liquid assets, alternative sources of liquidity, as well as relevant ratios concerning asset levels and purchased funds. These indicators are reported to the Bank’s Board of Directors monthly.

Capital. At September 30, 2011, our total stockholders’ equity was $51.9 million and our equity to asset ratio was 7.66%. At September 30, 2011, our Tier 1 capital ratio was 10.53% compared to 11.39% at December 31, 2010, while our total risk-based capital ratio was 12.11% compared to 12.66% at December 31, 2010. As of September 30, 2011, the Company had capital in excess of the requirements for an “adequately-capitalized” bank holding company. At September 30, 2011, the Bank’s Tier 1 capital ratio was 11.64% compared to 11.88% at December 31, 2010, while our total risk-based capital ratio was 12.91% compared to 13.15% at December 31, 2010. As of September 30, 2011, the Bank had capital in excess of the requirements for a “well-capitalized” institution.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

As a continuing part of our financial strategy, we attempt to manage the impact of fluctuations in market interest rates on our net interest income. This effort entails providing a reasonable balance between interest rate risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and maintenance of yield. Our funds management policy and interest rate risk policy are established by our Bank Board of Directors and monitored by our Asset/Liability Management Committee. Our funds management policy sets standards within which we are expected to operate. These standards include guidelines for liquidity, loan limits as a percentage of funding sources, exposure to correspondent banks and brokers, and reliance on non-core deposits. Our funds management policy also establishes the reporting requirements to our Bank Board of Directors. Our interest rate risk policy includes guidelines for exposure and monitoring interest rate fluctuations and establishes reporting requirements to the Bank Board of Directors. Our investment policy complements our funds management policy by establishing criteria by which we may purchase securities. These criteria include approved types of securities, brokerage sources, terms of investment, quality standards, and diversification. Our liquidity contingency funding plan is established by our Bank Board of Directors and monitored by our Asset/Liability Management Committee. Our liquidity contingency funding plan sets guidelines for the Company to monitor and control its liquidity position as well as ensure appropriate contingency liquidity plans are actively in place and consistent with the current and forecasted needs of the Company.

We use asset/liability modeling software to analyze the Company’s current sensitivity to instantaneous and permanent changes in interest rates. The system simulates the Company’s asset and liability base and projects future net interest income results under several interest rate assumptions. This allows management to view how changes in interest rates will affect the spread between the yield received on assets and the cost of deposits and borrowed funds.

The asset/liability modeling software is also used to analyze the net economic value of equity at risk under instantaneous shifts in interest rates. The “net economic value of equity at risk” is defined as the market value of assets less the market value of liabilities plus/minus the market value of any off-balance sheet positions. By effectively looking at the present value of all future cash flows on or off the balance sheet, the net economic value of equity modeling takes a longer-term view of interest rate risk.

We strive to maintain a position such that current changes in interest rates will not affect net interest income or the economic value of equity by more than 5%, per 50 basis points. The following table sets forth the estimated percentage change in the Bank of Blue Valley’s net interest income over the next twelve month period and net economic value of equity at risk at September 30, 2011 based on the indicated instantaneous and permanent changes in interest rates.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The above table indicates that, at September 30, 2011, in the event of a sudden and sustained increase in prevailing market rates, our net interest income would be expected to increase. This is a result of an increase in our interest-bearing demand deposit balances, specifically our Performance and Ultimate Checking accounts. The increase in interest-bearing demand deposit balances provides the Company with greater control over the cost of its funding base and enables the Company to expand its net interest margin in an increasing rate environment. The Bank has placed floors on its loans over the last several years which would limit the decline in yield earned on the loan portfolio in a declining rate environment. Another consideration in a rising interest rate scenario is the impact of mortgage financing, which would likely decline, leading to lower loans held for sale fee income, though the impact is difficult to quantify or project. In the decreasing rate scenarios, the adjustable rate assets (loans) reprice to lower rates faster than our liabilities, but our liabilities – long-term FHLB advances and existing time deposits – would not decrease in rate as much as market rates. In addition, fixed rate loans might experience an increase in prepayments, further decreasing yields on earning assets and causing net income to decrease.

The above table also indicates that, at September 30, 2011, in the event of a sudden increase in prevailing market rates, the economic value of our equity would increase. Given our current asset/liability position, a 100 and 200 basis point increase in interest rates will result in an increase in the economic value of our equity as the change in estimated gain on liabilities exceeds the change in estimated loss on assets in this interest rate scenario. Currently, under an increasing rate environment, the Company’s estimated market value of loans could decrease slightly due to fixed rate loans and investments with rates lower than market rates. These assets have a likelihood to remain until maturity in this rate environment. However, the estimated market value decrease in fixed rate loans and investment securities would be offset by time deposits unable to reprice to higher rates immediately and fixed-rate callable advances from FHLB. The likelihood of advances being called in a rising rate environment increases resulting in advances being repriced prior to maturity. Given our current asset/liability position, a 25 basis point decline in interest rates will result in a slight decrease in the economic value of our equity. Currently, under a falling rate environment, the Company’s estimated market value of loans could increase as a result of fixed rate loans, net of possible prepayments. However, the estimated market value increase in fixed rate loans is offset by time deposits unable to reprice to lower rates immediately and fixed-rate callable advances from FHLB. The likelihood of advances being called in a decreasing rate environment is diminished resulting in the advances existing until final maturity, which has the effect of lowering the economic value of equity.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

In accordance with Item 307 of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company (the “Certifying Officers”) have conducted evaluations of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. As defined under Sections 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the term “disclosure controls and procedures” means controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive officer or officers and principal financial officer or officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Certifying Officers have reviewed the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and have concluded that those disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In compliance with Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, (18 U.S.C. 1350), each of the Certifying Officers executed an Officer’s Certification included in this Quarterly Report on 10-Q.

There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2011, which have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.
