WVS FINANCIAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and therefore do not include information or footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). However, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of operations for the three and six months ended December 31, 2016, are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the entire fiscal year.

 

2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (a new revenue recognition standard). The Update’s core principle is that a company will recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In addition, this Update specifies the accounting for certain costs to obtain or fulfill a contract with a customer and expands disclosure requirements for revenue recognition. This Update is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the standard will have on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contract with Customers (Topic 606). The amendments in this Update defer the effective date of ASU 2014-09 for all entities by one year. Public business entities, certain not-for-profit entities, and certain employee benefit plans should apply the guidance in ASU 2014-09 to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. All other entities should apply the guidance in ASU 2014-09 to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is evaluating the effect of adopting this new accounting Update.

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. This Update applies to all entities that hold financial assets or owe financial liabilities and is intended to provide more useful information on the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. Among other things, this Update (a) requires equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting or those that result in consolidation of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income; (b) simplifies the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values by requiring a qualitative assessment to identify impairment; (c) eliminates the requirement to disclose the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost for entities that are not public business entities; (d) eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet; (e) requires public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes; (f) requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset (that is, securities or loans and receivables) on the balance sheet or the accompanying notes to the financial statements; and (g) clarifies that an entity should evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale securities in combination with the entity’s other deferred tax assets. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, including not-for-profit entities and employee benefit plans within the scope of Topics 960 through

Table of Contents

965 on plan accounting, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. All entities that are not public business entities may adopt the amendments in this Update earlier as of the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the standard will have on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The standard requires lessees to recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from leases on the balance sheet. A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. A short-term lease is defined as one in which (a) the lease term is 12 months or less and (b) there is not an option to purchase the underlying asset that the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise. For short-term leases, lessees may elect to recognize lease payments over the lease term on a straight-line basis. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those years. For all other entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The amendments should be applied at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach with earlier application permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the standard will have on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The amendments in this Update affect entities with transactions included within the scope of Topic 606, which includes entities that enter into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services (that are an output of the entity’s ordinary activities) in exchange for consideration. The amendments in this Update do not change the core principle of the guidance in Topic 606; they simply clarify the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. The amendments in this Update are intended to improve the operability and understandability of the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. The amendments in this Update affect the guidance in ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which is not yet effective. The effective date and transition requirements for the amendments in this Update are the same as the effective date and transition requirements of Update 2014-09. ASU No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date, defers the effective date of Update 2014-09 by one year. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the standard will have on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718). The amendments in this Update affect all entities that issue share-based payment awards to their employees. The standards in this Update provide simplification for several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as with equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. Some of the areas for simplification apply only to nonpublic entities. In addition to those simplifications, the amendments eliminate the guidance in Topic 718 that was indefinitely deferred shortly after the issuance of FASB Statement No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment. This should not result in a change in practice because the guidance that is being superseded was never effective. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted for any entity in any interim or annual period. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The amendments in this Update affect entities with transactions included within the scope of Topic 606, which includes entities that enter into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services in exchange for consideration. The amendments in this Update do not change the core principle for revenue recognition in Topic 606. Instead, the amendments provide (1) more detailed guidance in a few areas and

 

10


Table of Contents

(2) additional implementation guidance and examples based on feedback the FASB received from its stakeholders. The amendments are expected to reduce the degree of judgment necessary to comply with Topic 606, which the FASB expects will reduce the potential for diversity arising in practice and reduce the cost and complexity of applying the guidance. The amendments in this Update affect the guidance in ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which is not yet effective. The effective date and transition requirements for the amendments in this Update are the same as the effective date and transition requirements in Topic 606 (and any other Topic amended by Update 2014-09). ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date, defers the effective date of Update 2014-09 by one year. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the standard will have on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-11, Revenue Recognition (Topic 605) and Derivative and Hedging (Topic 815), which rescinds SEC paragraphs pursuant to two SEC Staff Announcements at the March 3, 2016, Emerging Issues Task Force meeting. This Update did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which among other things clarifies the objective of the collectability criterion in Topic 606, as well as certain narrow aspects of Topic 606. The amendments in this Update affect the guidance in ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which is not yet effective. The effective date and transition requirements for the amendments in this Update are the same as the effective date and transition requirements for Topic 606 (and any other Topic amended by Update 2014-09). ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date, defers the effective date of Update 2014-09 by one year. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), which changes the impairment model for most financial assets. This Update is intended to improve financial reporting by requiring timelier recording of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments held by financial institutions and other organizations. The underlying premise of the Update is that financial assets measured at amortized cost should be presented at the net amount expected to be collected, through an allowance for credit losses that is deducted from the amortized cost basis. The allowance for credit losses should reflect management’s current estimate of credit losses that are expected to occur over the remaining life of a financial asset. The income statement will be effected for the measurement of credit losses for newly recognized financial assets, as well as the expected increases or decreases of expected credit losses that have taken place during the period. ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and early adoption is permitted for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. With certain exceptions, transition to the new requirements will be through a cumulative effect adjustment to opening retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is adopted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the standard will have on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (“ASU 2016-15”), which addresses eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing diversity in practice. Among these include recognizing cash payments for debt prepayment or debt extinguishment as cash outflows for financing activities; cash proceeds received from the settlement of insurance claims should be classified on the basis of the related insurance coverage; and cash proceeds received from the settlement of bank-owned life insurance policies should be classified as cash inflows from investing activities while the cash payments for premiums on bank-owned policies may be classified as cash outflows for investing activities, operating activities, or a combination of investing and operating activities. The amendments in this Update are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of

 

11


Table of Contents

the fiscal year that includes that interim period. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all of the amendments in the same period. The amendments in this Update should be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. If it is impracticable to apply the amendments retrospectively for some of the issues, the amendments for those issues would be applied prospectively as of the earliest date practicable. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the standard will have on the Company’s statement of cash flows.

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) (“ASU 2016-18”), which requires that a statement of cash flows explains the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The amendments in this Update are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The amendments in this Update should be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the standard will have on the Company’s statement of cash flows.

In December 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-19, Technical Corrections and Improvements, which represents changes to clarify, correct errors, or make minor improvements to the Accounting Standards Codification. The amendments make the Accounting Standards Codification easier to understand and easier to apply by eliminating inconsistencies and providing clarifications. Most of the amendments in this Update do not require transition guidance and are effective upon issuance of this Update. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In December 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-20, Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers “ASU 2016-20”. This Update, among others things, clarifies that guarantee fees within the scope of Topic 460, Guarantees, (other than product or service warranties) are not within the scope of Topic 606. The effective date and transition requirements for ASU 2016-20 are the same as the effective date and transition requirements for the new revenue recognition guidance. For public entities with a calendar year-end, the new guidance is effective in the quarter and year beginning January 1, 2018. For all other entities with a calendar year-end, the new guidance is effective in the year ending December 31, 2019, and interim periods in 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the standard will have on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805), Clarifying the Definition of a Business “ASU 2017-01”, which provides a more robust framework to use in determining when a set of assets and activities (collectively referred to as a “set”) is a business. The screen requires that when substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, the set is not a business. This screen reduces the number of transactions that need to be further evaluated. Public business entities should apply the amendments in this Update to annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods. All other entities should apply the amendments to annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The amendments in this Update should be applied prospectively on or after the effective date. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

There are no convertible securities that would affect the numerator in calculating basic and diluted earnings per share; therefore, net income as presented on the Consolidated Statement of Income is used.

At December 31, 2016, and 2015, there were 114,519 options outstanding with an exercise price of $16.20 which were anti-dilutive for the three and six month periods.

 

4. STOCK BASED COMPENSATION DISCLOSURE

The Company’s 2008 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), which was approved by shareholders in October 2008, permits the grant of stock options or restricted shares to its directors and employees for up to 152,000 shares (up to 38,000 restricted shares may be issued). Option awards are generally granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company’s stock at the date of grant; those option awards generally vest over five years of continuous service and have ten-year contractual terms.

During the six month periods ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company recorded $0 in compensation expense related to our share-based compensation awards. As of December 31, 2016, there was no unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested share-based compensation awards granted in fiscal 2009.

The Company had no non-vested stock options outstanding at December 31, 2016 and 2015. There were no stock options exercised or issued during the six months ended December 31, 2016 and 2015.

6. MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES

Mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) include mortgage pass-through certificates (“PCs”) and collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”). With a pass-through security, investors own an undivided interest in the pool of mortgages that collateralize the PCs. Principal and interest is passed through to the investor as it is generated by the mortgages underlying the pool. PCs and CMOs may be insured or guaranteed by Freddie Mac (“FHLMC”), Fannie Mae (“FNMA”) and the Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”). CMOs may also be privately issued with varying degrees of credit enhancements. A CMO reallocates mortgage pool cash flow to a series of bonds (called traunches) with varying stated maturities, estimated average lives, coupon rates and prepayment characteristics.

The Company’s CMO portfolio is comprised of two segments: CMOs backed by U.S. Government Agencies (“Agency CMOs”) and CMOs backed by single-family whole loans not guaranteed by a U.S. Government Agency (“private-label CMOs”).

At December 31, 2016, the Company’s Agency CMOs totaled $122.005 million as compared to $135.957 million at June 30, 2016. The Company’s private-label CMOs totaled $1.268 million at December 31, 2016 as compared to $1.459 million at June 30, 2016. The $13.952 million decrease in the CMO segment of our MBS portfolio was primarily due to repayments on our Agency and private-label CMOs which totaled $21.957 million and $261 thousand, respectively, which were partially offset by purchases of U.S. Government agency CMOs totaling $7.984 million. At December 31, 2016, approximately $123.273 million or 100.0% (book value) of the Company’s MBS portfolio, including CMOs, were comprised of adjustable or floating rate investments, as compared to $137.416 million or 100.0% at June 30, 2016. Substantially all of the Company’s floating rate MBS adjust monthly based upon changes in the one month LIBOR. The Company has no investment in multi-family or commercial real estate based MBS.

Due to prepayments of the underlying loans, and the prepayment characteristics of the CMO traunches, the actual maturities of the Company’s MBS are expected to be substantially less than the scheduled maturities.

The Company retains an independent third party to assist it in the determination of a fair value for its three private-label CMOs. This valuation is meant to be a “Level Three” valuation as defined by ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. The valuation does not represent the actual terms or prices at which any party could purchase the securities. There is currently no active secondary market for private-label CMOs and there can be no assurance that any secondary market for private-label CMOs will develop. The private-label CMO portfolio had three previously recorded other-than-temporary impairments at December 31, 2016. During the six months ending December 31, 2016, the Company reversed $38 thousand of non-credit unrealized holding losses on its three private-label CMOs with OTTI due to principal repayments. During the six months ended December 31, 2016, the Company recorded no additional credit impairment charges on its private-label CMO portfolio.

The Company believes that the data and assumptions used to determine the fair values are reasonable. The fair value calculations reflect relevant facts and market conditions. Events and conditions occurring after the valuation date could have a material effect on the private-label CMO segment’s fair value.

For debt securities, impairment is considered to be other than temporary if an entity (1) intends to sell the security, (2) more likely than not will be required to sell the security before recovering its amortized cost basis, or (3) does not expect to recover the security’s entire amortized cost basis (even if the entity does not intend to sell the security). In addition, impairment is considered to be other than temporary if the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the debt security is less than the amortized cost basis of the security (any such shortfall is referred to as a credit loss).

The Company evaluates outstanding available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities in an unrealized loss position (i.e., impaired securities) for other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) on a quarterly basis. In doing so, the Company considers many factors including, but not limited to: the credit ratings assigned to the securities by the Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organizations (NRSROs); other indicators of the credit quality of the issuer; the strength of the provider of any guarantees; the length of time and extent that fair value has been less than amortized cost; and whether the Company has the intent to sell the security or more likely than not will be required to sell the security

before its anticipated recovery. In the case of its private label residential MBSs, the Company also considers prepayment speeds, the historical and projected performance of the underlying loans and the credit support provided by the subordinate securities. These evaluations are inherently subjective and consider a number of quantitative and qualitative factors.

The following table presents a roll-forward of the credit loss component of the amortized cost of mortgage-backed securities that we have written down for OTTI and the credit component of the loss that is recognized in earnings. OTTI recognized in earnings for credit impaired mortgage-backed securities is presented as additions in two components based upon whether the current period is the first time the mortgage-backed security was credit-impaired (initial credit impairment) or is not the first time the mortgage-backed security was credit impaired (subsequent credit impairments). The credit loss component is reduced if we sell, intend to sell or believe that we will be required to sell previously credit-impaired mortgage-backed securities. Additionally, the credit loss component is reduced if we receive cash flows in excess of what we expected to receive over the remaining life of the credit impaired mortgage-backed securities, the security matures or is fully written down.

During the three and six months ended December 31, 2016, the Company recorded no credit impairment charge and no non-credit unrealized holding loss to accumulated other comprehensive income. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2016, the Company accreted back into other comprehensive income $22 thousand and $44 thousand, respectively, (net of income tax effect of $15 thousand and $26 thousand, respectively), based on principal repayments on private-label CMOs previously identified with OTTI.

In the case of its private-label residential CMOs that exhibit adverse risk characteristics, the Company employs models to determine the cash flows that it is likely to collect from the securities. These models consider borrower characteristics and the particular attributes of the loans underlying the securities, in conjunction with assumptions about future changes in home prices and interest rates, to predict the likelihood a loan will default and the impact on default frequency, loss severity and remaining credit enhancement. A significant input to these models is the forecast of future housing price changes for the relevant states and metropolitan statistical areas, which are based upon an assessment of the various housing markets. In general, since the ultimate receipt of contractual payments on these securities will depend upon the credit and prepayment performance of the underlying loans and, if needed, the credit enhancements for the senior securities owned by the Company, the Company uses these models to assess whether the credit enhancement associated with each security is sufficient to protect against likely losses of principal and interest on the underlying mortgage loans. The development of the modeling assumptions requires significant judgment.

Table of Contents

In conjunction with our adoption of ASC Topic 820, the Company retained an independent third party to assist it with assessing its investments within the private-label CMO portfolio. The independent third party utilized certain assumptions for producing the cash flow analyses used in the OTTI assessment. Key assumptions would include interest rates, expected market participant spreads and discount rates, housing prices, projected future delinquency levels and assumed loss rates on any liquidated collateral.

The Company reviewed the independent third party’s assumptions used in the December 31, 2016 OTTI process. Based on the results of this review, the Company deemed the independent third party’s assumptions to be reasonable and adopted them. However, different assumptions could produce materially different results, which could impact the Company’s conclusions as to whether an impairment is considered other-than-temporary and the magnitude of the credit loss. Management believes that no additional private-label CMOs in the portfolio had an other-than-temporary impairment at December 31, 2016, keeping the total at three private-label CMOs with OTTI at December 31, 2016.

If the Company intends to sell an impaired debt security, or more likely than not will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, the impairment is other-than-temporary and is recognized currently in earnings in an amount equal to the entire difference between fair value and amortized cost. The Company does not anticipate selling its private-label CMO portfolio, nor does Management believe that the Company will be required to sell these securities before recovery of this amortized cost basis.

In instances in which the Company determines that a credit loss exists but the Company does not intend to sell the security and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before the anticipated recovery of its remaining amortized cost basis, the OTTI is separated into (1) the amount of the total impairment related to the credit loss and (2) the amount of the total impairment related to all other factors (i.e., the noncredit portion). The amount of the total OTTI related to the credit loss is recognized in earnings and the amount of the total OTTI related to all other factors is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss. The total OTTI is presented in the Consolidated Statement of Income with an offset for the amount of the total OTTI that is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss. Absent the intent or requirement to sell a security, if a credit loss does not exist, any impairment is considered to be temporary.

Regardless of whether an OTTI is recognized in its entirety in earnings or if the credit portion is recognized in earnings and the noncredit portion is recognized in other comprehensive income (loss), the estimation of fair values has a significant impact on the amount(s) of any impairment that is recorded.

The noncredit portion of any OTTI losses on securities classified as available-for-sale is adjusted to fair value with an offsetting adjustment to the carrying value of the security. The fair value adjustment could increase or decrease the carrying value of the security. All of the Company’s private-label CMOs were originally, and continue to be classified, as held to maturity.

In periods subsequent to the recognition of an OTTI loss, the other-than-temporarily impaired debt security is accounted for as if it had been purchased on the measurement date of the OTTI at an amount equal to the previous amortized cost basis less the credit-related OTTI recognized in earnings. For debt securities for which credit-related OTTI is recognized in earnings, the difference between the new cost basis and the cash flows expected to be collected is accreted into interest income over the remaining life of the security in a prospective manner based on the amount and timing of future estimated cash flows.

The Company had investments in 53 positions that were impaired at December 31, 2016. Based on its analysis, management has concluded that three private-label CMOs are other-than-temporarily impaired, while the remaining securities portfolio has experienced unrealized losses and a decrease in fair value due to interest rate volatility, illiquidity in the marketplace, or credit deterioration in the U.S. mortgage markets.

Impaired loans are loans for which it is probable the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The following loan categories are collectively evaluated for impairment. First mortgage loans: 1 – 4 family dwellings and all consumer loan categories (home equity, home equity lines of credit, and other). The following loan categories are individually evaluated for impairment. First mortgage loans: construction, land acquisition and development, multi-family dwellings, and commercial. The Company evaluates commercial loans not secured by real property individually for impairment.

The definition of “impaired loans” is not the same as the definition of “nonaccrual loans,” although the two categories overlap. The Company may choose to place a loan on nonaccrual status due to payment delinquency or uncertain collectability, while not classifying the loan as impaired if the loan is not a commercial or commercial real estate loan. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status and collateral value. The amount of impairment for these types of impaired loans is determined by the difference between the present value of the expected cash flows related to the loan, using the original interest rate, and its recorded value, or as a practical expedient in the case of collateralized loans, the difference between the fair value of the collateral and the recorded amount of the loans. When foreclosure is probable, impairment is measured based on the fair value of the collateral.

Loans that experience insignificant payment delays, which are defined as 90 days or less, generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays on a case-by-case basis taking into consideration all circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed.

The Company’s loan portfolio also includes troubled debt restructurings (TDRs), where economic concessions have been granted to borrowers who have experienced or are expected to experience financial difficulties. These concessions typically result from the Company’s loss mitigation activities and could include reductions in the interest rate, payment extensions, forgiveness of principal, forbearance or other actions. Certain TDRs are classified as nonperforming at the time of restructure and may only be returned to performing status after considering the borrower’s sustained repayment performance for a reasonable period, generally six months.

During the three and six months ended December 31, 2016, and December 31, 2015, there were no TDRs, and no TDRs that subsequently defaulted.

When the Company modifies a loan, management evaluates any possible impairment based on the present value of expected future cash flows, discounted at the contractual interest rate of the original loan agreement, except when the sole (remaining) source of repayment for the loan is the operation or liquidation of the collateral. In these cases, management uses the current fair value of the collateral, less selling costs, instead of discounted cash flows. If management determines that the value of the modified loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan (net of previous charge-offs, deferred loan fees or costs and unamortized premium or discount), impairment is recognized by segment or class of loan, as applicable, through an allowance estimate or a charge-off to the allowance. Segment and class status is determined by the loan’s classification at origination.

The allowance for loan losses is established through provisions for loan losses charged against income. Loans deemed to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. The allowance is maintained at a level believed adequate by management to absorb estimated potential loan losses. Management’s determination of the adequacy of the allowance is based on periodic evaluations of the loan portfolio considering past experience, current economic conditions, composition of the loan portfolio and other relevant factors. This evaluation is inherently subjective, as it requires material estimates that may be susceptible to significant change.

Effective December 13, 2006, the FDIC, in conjunction with the other federal banking agencies adopted a Revised Interagency Policy Statement on the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses (“ALLL”). The revised policy statement revised and replaced the banking agencies’ 1993 policy statement on the ALLL. The revised policy statement provides that an institution must maintain an ALLL at a level that is appropriate to cover estimated credit losses on individually evaluated loans determined to be impaired, as well as estimated credit losses inherent in the remainder of the loan and lease portfolio. The banking agencies also revised the policy to ensure consistency with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The revised policy statement updates the previous guidance that describes the responsibilities of the board of directors, management, and bank examiners regarding the ALLL, factors to be considered in the estimation of the ALLL, and the objectives and elements of an effective loan review system.

Federal regulations require that each insured savings institution classify its assets on a regular basis. In addition, in connection with examinations of insured institutions, federal examiners have authority to identify problem assets and, if appropriate, classify them. There are three classifications for problem assets: “substandard”, “doubtful” and “loss”. Substandard assets have one or more defined weaknesses and are characterized by the distinct possibility that the insured institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Doubtful assets have the weaknesses of those classified as substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values questionable, and there is a high possibility of loss. An asset classified as loss is considered uncollectible and of such little value that continuance as an asset of the institution is not warranted. Another category designated “asset watch” is also utilized by the Bank for assets which do not currently expose an insured institution to a sufficient degree of risk to warrant classification as substandard, doubtful or loss. Assets classified as substandard or doubtful require the institution to establish general allowances for loan losses. If an asset or portion thereof is classified as loss, the insured institution must either establish specific allowances for loan losses in the amount of 100% of the portion of the asset classified loss, or charge-off such amount. General loss allowances established to cover possible losses related to assets classified substandard or doubtful may be included in determining an institution’s regulatory capital, while specific valuation allowances for loan losses do not qualify as regulatory capital.

The Company’s general policy is to internally classify its assets on a regular basis and establish prudent general valuation allowances that are adequate to absorb losses that have not been identified but that are inherent in the loan portfolio. The Company maintains general valuation allowances that it believes are adequate to absorb losses in its loan portfolio that are not clearly attributable to specific loans. The Company’s general valuation allowances are within the following general ranges: (1) 0% to 5% of assets subject to special mention; (2) 1.00% to 100% of assets classified substandard; and (3) 50% to 100% of assets classified doubtful. Any loan classified as loss is charged-off. To further monitor and assess the risk characteristics of the loan portfolio, loan delinquencies are reviewed to consider any developing problem loans. Based upon the procedures in place, considering the Company’s past charge-offs and recoveries and assessing the current risk elements in the portfolio, management believes the allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2016, is adequate.

Credit quality information

The following tables represent credit exposure by internally assigned grades for the period ended December 31, 2016. The grading system analysis estimates the capability of the borrower to repay the contractual obligations of the loan agreements as scheduled or not at all. The Company’s internal credit risk grading system is based on experiences with similarly graded loans.

The Company’s internally assigned grades are as follows:

Pass – loans which are protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or by the value of the underlying collateral.

Special Mention – loans where a potential weakness or risk exists, which could cause a more serious problem if not corrected.

Substandard – loans that have a well-defined weakness based on objective evidence and can be characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Doubtful – loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in a substandard loan. In addition, these weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable, based on existing circumstances.

Loss – loans classified as loss are considered uncollectible, or of such value that continuance as a loan is not warranted.

The primary credit quality indicator used by management in the 1 – 4 family and consumer loan portfolios is the performance status of the loans. Payment activity is reviewed by Management on a monthly basis to determine how loans are performing. Loans are considered to be non-performing when they become 90 days delinquent, have a history of delinquency, or have other inherent characteristics which Management deems to be weaknesses.

The following tables present the Company’s internally classified construction, land acquisition and development, multi-family residential, commercial real estate and commercial (not secured by real estate) loans at December 31, 2016 and June 30, 2016.

The Company determines its allowance for loan losses in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The Company uses a systematic methodology as required by Financial Reporting Release No. 28 and the various Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council guidelines. The Company also endeavors to adhere to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 102 in connection with loan loss allowance methodology and documentation issues.

Our methodology used to determine the allocated portion of the allowance is as follows. For groups of homogenous loans, we apply a loss rate to the groups’ aggregate balance. Our group loss rate reflects our historical loss experience. We may adjust these group rates to compensate for changes in environmental factors; but our adjustments have not been frequent due to a relatively stable charge-off experience. The Company also monitors industry loss experience on similar loan portfolio segments. We then identify loans for individual evaluation under ASC Topic 310. If the individually identified loans are performing, we apply a segment specific loss rate adjusted for relevant environmental factors, if necessary, for those loans reviewed individually and considered individually impaired, we use one of the three methods for measuring impairment mandated by ASC Topic 310. Generally the fair value of collateral is used since our impaired loans are generally real estate based. In connection with the fair value of collateral measurement, the Company generally uses an independent appraisal and determines costs to sell. The Company’s appraisals for commercial income based loans, such as multi-family and commercial real estate loans, assess value based upon the operating cash flows of the business as opposed to merely “as built” values. The Company then validates the reasonableness of our calculated allowances by: (1) reviewing trends in loan volume, delinquencies, restructurings and concentrations; (2) reviewing prior period (historical) charge-offs and

recoveries; and (3) presenting the results of this process, quarterly, to the Asset Classification Committee and the Savings Bank’s Board of Directors. We then tabulate, format and summarize the current loan loss allowance balance for financial and regulatory reporting purposes.

The Company had no unallocated loss allowance balance at December 31, 2016.

The allowance for loan losses represents the amount which management estimates is adequate to provide for probable losses inherent in its loan portfolio. The allowance method is used in providing for loan losses. Accordingly, all loan losses are charged to the allowance, and all recoveries are credited to it. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged to operations. The provision for loan losses is based on management’s periodic evaluation of individual loans, economic factors, past loan loss experience, changes in the composition and volume of the portfolio, and other relevant factors. The estimates used in determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, including the amounts and timing of future cash flows expected on impaired loans, are particularly susceptible to changes in the near term.

During the three and six months ending December 31, 2016, the ALLL increased $0.019 million and $0.035 million respectively. The primary reason for the changes in the ALLL balance, both in total, and within the identified segments, is changes in applicable loan balances.

 

33


Table of Contents

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016, the Company also increased its ALLL reserve factors, due to increases in associated loan balances and qualitative factors throughout fiscal 2016, for the following loan segments:

 

Loan Segment

   12/31/2016 Factor   12/31/2015 Factor

1 – 4 family

   0.40%   0.35%

Construction:

    

1 – 4 family

   0.75%   0.75%

5+ family

   1.00%   1.00%

During the three months ended December 31, 2015, the ALLL associated with multi-family residential real estate loans, 1 – 4 family real estate loans, and construction loans increased $9 thousand, $8 thousand, and $5 thousand, respectively. The primary reason for the increases in the ALLL associated with these segments, were the increases in associated loan balances.

During the six months ended December 31, 2015, the ALLL associated with the 1-4 family and construction loan portfolios increased by $37 thousand, and $21 thousand, respectively. The primary reason for the increases in the ALLL associated with these segments were the increases in associated loan balances. The ALLL associated with the commercial real estate loans and consumer loans decreased $5 thousand and $5 thousand, respectively. The decrease in the ALLL associated with commercial real estate loans was primarily due to the payoff of one non-performing loan in this segment, while the decrease in the ALLL associated with consumer loans was primarily due to lower loan balances within this segment.

The FHLB has the right to convert from a fixed rate to a predetermined floating rate on its conversion date or quarterly thereafter. Should the advance be converted, the Company has the right to pay off the advance without penalty. The adjustable rate advances adjust either monthly or quarterly, based on the one-month or three-month LIBOR index, and have various spreads to the LIBOR index. The spread to the applicable LIBOR index range is 0.13%. The adjustable rate advances are not convertible or callable. The FHLB advances are secured by the Company’s FHLB stock, mortgage-backed and investment securities, and loans, and are subject to substantial prepayment penalties.

The Company also utilized revolving and short-term FHLB advances. Short-term FHLB advances generally mature within 90 days, while revolving FHLB advances may be repaid by the Company without penalty. The following table presents information regarding such advances as of December 31, 2016 and June 30, 2016:

At December 31, 2016, the Company had remaining borrowing capacity with the FHLB of approximately $5.5 million.

The FHLB advances are secured by the Company’s FHLB stock, loans, and mortgage-backed and investment securities held in safekeeping at the FHLB. FHLB advances are subject to substantial prepayment penalties.

 

11. OTHER BORROWINGS

Other borrowings include securities sold under agreements to repurchase with securities brokers (“repurchase agreements”). These borrowings generally mature within 1 to 90 days from the transaction date and require a collateral pledge. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase are stated at the amount of cash received in connection with the transaction. We monitor collateral levels on a continuous basis. We may be required to provide additional collateral based on the fair value of the underlying securities. Securities pledged as collateral under repurchase agreements are maintained with our safekeeping agents.

12. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for an asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP established a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the use of inputs used in valuation methodologies into the following three levels:

 

LeveI I:   

Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date.

LeveI lI:   

Pricing inputs are other than the quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. The nature of these assets and liabilities includes items for which quoted prices are available but traded less frequently and items that are fair-valued using other financial instruments, the parameters of which can be directly observed.

LeveI lII:   

Assets and liabilities that have little to no pricing observability as of the reported date. These items do not have two-way markets and are measured using management’s best estimate of fair value, where the inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation.

Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Investment Securities Available-for-Sale

Fair values for securities available for sale are determined by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges or matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely used in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities, but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities. The Company has no Level I or Level III investment securities. Level II investment securities were primarily comprised of investment-grade corporate bonds and U.S. dollar-denominated investment-grade corporate bonds of large foreign issuers.

The following tables present the assets reported on a recurring basis on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at their fair value as of December 31, 2016 and June 30, 2016, by level within the fair value hierarchy. As required by GAAP, financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

The Company may be required, from time to time, to measure certain financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. These include assets that are measured at the lower of cost or market value that were recognized at fair value below cost at the end of the period.

Impaired Loans

Loans for which it is probable that payment of interest and principal will not be made in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement are considered impaired. Once a loan is identified as individually impaired, management measures impairment in accordance with ASC Topic 310. The fair value of impaired loans is estimated using one of several methods, including collateral value, liquidation value and discounted cash flows. Those impaired loans not requiring an allowance represent loans for which the fair value of the expected repayments or collateral exceed the recorded investments in such loans. Collateral values are estimated using Level II inputs based on observable market data or Level III inputs based on customized discounting criteria. For a majority of impaired real estate related loans, the Company obtains a current external appraisal. Other valuation techniques are used as well, including internal valuations, comparable property analysis and contractual sales information. The Company has no Level I or Level II impaired loans. Level III impaired loans were primarily comprised of one single-family residential construction loan, one land loan, and one home equity line of credit.

The following tables present the assets reported on a non-recurring basis on the consolidated balance sheet at their fair values as of December 31, 2016 and June 30, 2016, by level within the fair value hierarchy. As required by GAAP, financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

When evaluating the value of the collateral on impaired loans, the Company will consider the age of the most current appraisal, and may discount the appraised value from 0.0% to 15.0%.

The Company classifies financial instruments in Level III of the fair value hierarchy when there is reliance on at least one significant unobservable input to the valuation model. In addition to these unobservable inputs, the valuation model for Level III financial instruments typically also rely on a number of inputs that are readily observable, either directly or indirectly.

Fair value is generally determined through independent appraisals of the underlying collateral, which generally include various level III inputs which are not identifiable.

Appraisals may be adjusted by management for qualitative factors such as economic conditions. The range and weighted average of appraisal adjustments are presented as a percentage of the appraisals.

Financial instruments are defined as cash, evidence of an ownership interest in an entity, or a contract which creates an obligation or right to receive or deliver cash or another financial instrument from or to a second entity on potentially favorable or unfavorable terms.

Fair value is defined as the amount at which a financial instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. If a quoted market price is available for a financial instrument, the estimated fair value would be calculated based upon the market price per trading unit of the instrument.

If no readily available market exists, the fair value estimates for financial instruments should be based upon management’s judgment regarding current economic conditions, interest rate risk, expected cash flows, future estimated losses, and other factors, as determined through various option pricing formulas or simulation modeling. As many of these assumptions result from judgments made by management based upon estimates, which are inherently uncertain, the resulting estimated values may not be indicative of the amount realizable in the sale of a particular financial instrument. In addition, changes in the assumptions on which the estimated values are based may have a significant impact on the resulting estimated values.

As certain assets and liabilities, such as deferred tax assets, premises and equipment, and many other operational elements of the Company, are not considered financial instruments, but have value, this estimated fair value of financial instruments would not represent the full market value of the Company.

 

40


Table of Contents

Estimated fair values have been determined by the Company using the best available data, as generally provided in internal Savings Bank regulatory, or third party valuation reports, using an estimation methodology suitable for each category of financial instruments. The estimation methodologies used are as follows:

Cash and Cash Equivalents, Certificates of Deposit, Accrued Interest Receivable and Payable, and FHLB Short-term Advances

The fair value approximates the current carrying value.

Trading Securities, Investment Securities, Mortgage-Backed Securities, and FHLB Stock

The fair value of investment and mortgage-backed securities is equal to the available quoted market price. If no quoted market price is available, fair value is estimated using the quoted market price for similar securities. For discussion of valuation of private-label CMOs, see Note 8 “Unrealized Losses on Securities”. Since the FHLB stock is not actively traded on a secondary market and held exclusively by member financial institutions, the estimated fair market value approximates the carrying amount.

Net Loans Receivable, Deposits, and Advance Payments by Borrowers for Taxes and Insurance

Fair value for consumer mortgage loans is estimated using market quotes or discounting contractual cash flows for prepayment estimates. Discount rates were obtained from secondary market sources, adjusted to reflect differences in servicing, credit, and other characteristics.

The estimated fair values for consumer, fixed-rate commercial, and multi-family real estate loans are estimated by discounting contractual cash flows for prepayment estimates. Discount rates are based upon rates generally charged for such loans with similar credit characteristics.

The estimated fair value for nonperforming loans is the appraised value of the underlying collateral adjusted for estimated credit risk.

Demand, savings, money market deposit accounts, and advance payments by borrowers for taxes and insurance are reported at book value. The fair value of certificates of deposit is based upon the discounted value of the contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using average market rates for deposits with similar average terms.

Bank Owned Life Insurance (“BOLI”)

The fair value of BOLI approximates the cash surrender value of the policies at these dates.

FHLB Long-term Advances

The fair values of fixed-rate advances are estimated using discounted cash flows, based on current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements. The carrying amount on variable rate advances approximates their fair value.

Commitments to Extend Credit

These financial instruments are generally not subject to sale, and estimated fair values are not readily available. The carrying value, represented by the net deferred fee arising from the unrecognized commitment, and the fair value, determined by discounting the remaining contractual fee over the term of the commitment using fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements with similar credit risk, is not considered material for disclosure.

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2016

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

In the normal course of business, we, in an effort to help keep our shareholders and the public informed about our operations, may from time to time issue or make certain statements, either in writing or orally, that are or contain forward-looking statements, as that term is defined in the U.S. federal securities laws. Generally, these statements relate to business plans or strategies, projected or anticipated benefits from acquisitions made by or to be made by us, projections involving anticipated revenues, earnings, profitability or other aspects of operating results or other future developments in our affairs or the industry in which we conduct business. Forward-looking statements may be identified by reference to a future period or periods or by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “anticipated,” “believe,” ”expect,” ”intend,” “plan,” “estimate” or similar expressions.

Although we believe that the anticipated results or other expectations reflected in our forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, we can give no assurance that those results or expectations will be attained. Forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions (some of which are beyond our control), and as a result actual results may differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ from forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following, as well as those discussed elsewhere herein:

 

   

our investments in our businesses and in related technology could require additional incremental spending, and might not produce expected deposit and loan growth and anticipated contributions to our earnings;

 

   

general economic or industry conditions could be less favorable than expected, resulting in a deterioration in credit quality, a change in the allowance for loan losses or a reduced demand for credit or fee-based products and services;

 

   

changes in the interest rate environment could reduce net interest income and could increase credit losses;

GENERAL

WVS Financial Corp. (the “Company”) is the parent holding company of West View Savings Bank (“West View” or the “Savings Bank”). The Company was organized in July 1993 as a Pennsylvania-chartered unitary bank holding company and acquired 100% of the common stock of the Savings Bank in November 1993.

West View Savings Bank is a Pennsylvania-chartered, FDIC-insured stock savings bank conducting business from six offices in the North Hills suburbs of Pittsburgh. The Savings Bank converted from the mutual to the stock form of ownership in November 1993. The Savings Bank had no subsidiaries at December 31, 2016.

The operating results of the Company depend primarily upon its net interest income, which is determined by the difference between income on interest-earning assets, principally loans, mortgage-backed securities and investment securities, and interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities, which consist primarily of deposits and borrowings. The Company’s net income is also affected by its provision for loan losses, as well as the level of its non-interest income, including loan fees and service charges, and its non-interest expenses, such as compensation and employee benefits, income taxes, deposit insurance and occupancy costs.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

The Company’s assets totaled $340.135 million at December 31, 2016, as compared to $335.723 million at June 30, 2016. The $4.412 million or 1.31% increase in total assets was primarily comprised of a $10.035 million increase in certificates of deposit, a $9.473 million increase in net loans receivable and a $0.920 million increase in U.S. Treasury bonds held for trading, which were partially offset by a $14.143 million decrease in mortgage-backed securities and a $1.761 million decrease in investment securities classified as available for sale and held to maturity. The increase in certificates of deposit purchased was primarily attributable to purchases of large dollar floating rate certificates of deposit. The certificates of deposit reprice on a quarterly basis with various margins above the 3-month U.S. Libor index. The certificates also qualify for a 20% risk-weight under the Basel III risk-based capital regulations. The increase in net loans receivable was principally attributable to increases in the single-family owner occupied segment of the loan portfolio. The decreases in mortgage-backed and investment securities were used primarily to fund the increases in certificates of deposit and net loans receivable. See “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk - Asset and Liability Management”.

The Company’s total liabilities increased $4.173 million or 1.38% to $306.811 million as of December 31, 2016 from $302.638 million as of June 30, 2016. The $4.173 million increase in total liabilities was primarily comprised of a $2.156 million or 1.53% increase in total deposits and a $2.047 million or 1.42% increase in FHLB short-term advances, which were partially offset by a $0.023 million decrease in accrued interest payable and a $0.007 million decrease in other liabilities. The increase in total deposits was primarily attributable to increases in NOW accounts, and non-interest bearing accounts totaling $1.467 million, and $2.906 million, respectively, which were partially offset by decreases in savings and money market accounts, and time deposits, totaling $1.536 million, $0.334 million and $0.316 million, respectively. Management believes that most of the changes in total savings deposits is attributable to seasonal local and school real estate obligations accounts. The increase in FHLB short-term advances was primarily used to fund the growth in the certificates of deposit asset category discussed above. See also “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk - Asset and Liability Management”.

Total stockholders’ equity increased $0.239 million or 0.72% to $33.324 million as of December 31, 2016, from $33.085 million as of June 30, 2016. The increase was primarily attributable to Company net income of $0.793 million, which was partially offset by purchases of treasury stock totaling $0.359 million,

cash dividends paid of $0.161 million and a $0.047 million other comprehensive loss. The other comprehensive loss was primarily attributable to $0.091 million (net of tax effect) of unrealized holding losses on the Company’s available for sale investment portfolio, which was partially offset by a $0.044 million (net of tax effect) reversal of unrealized holding losses on three private-label CMOs with previously identified OTTI.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

General. WVS reported net income of $0.395 million or $0.21 per diluted share, for the three months ended December 31, 2016 as compared to $293 thousand or $0.15 per diluted share for the same period in 2015.

Net Interest Income. The Company’s net interest income increased by $116 thousand or 8.91% for the three months ended December 31, 2016, when compared to the same period in 2015. The increase in net interest income is attributable to a $192 thousand increase in interest income, which was partially offset by a $76 thousand increase in interest expense. The increase in interest income was primarily attributable to higher average balances of loans outstanding, when compared to the same period in 2015. The increase in interest expense was primarily attributable to higher average balances of Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) short-term borrowings and higher average rates paid on FHLB long-term variable rate and short-term borrowings which were partially offset by lower average balances of FHLB long-term variable and fixed rate borrowings, and lower average rates paid on FHLB long-term borrowings during the three months ended December 31, 2016, when compared to the same period in 2015. For the six months ended December 31, 2016, net interest income increased $196 thousand or 7.5% when compared to the same period in 2015. The increase in net-interest income was primarily attributable to a $334 thousand increase in interest income, which was partially offset by a $138 thousand increase in interest expense. The increase in interest income was primarily attributable to higher average balances of loans outstanding, when compared to the same period in 2015. The increase in interest expense was primarily attributable to higher average balances of FHLB short-term borrowings and higher average rates paid on FHLB long-term variable rate and short-term borrowings, which were partially offset by lower average balances of FHLB long-term variable and fixed rate borrowings, and lower average rates paid on FHLB long-term borrowings during the six months ended December 31, 2016, when compared to the same period in 2015.

Interest Income.

The increase for the three months ended December 31, 2016 was primarily attributable to a $16.439 million increase in the average balance of net loans receivable outstanding, which was partially offset by a decrease of 38 basis points in the weighted average yield earned on net loans receivable for the three months ended December 31, 2016, when compared to the same period in 2015. The increase for the six months ended December 31, 2016 was primarily attributable to a $16.910 million increase in the average balance of net loans receivable outstanding, which was partially offset by a decrease of 41 basis points in the weighted average yield earned on net loans receivable for the six months ended December 31, 2016, when compared to the same period in 2015. For the three and six months ended

Table of Contents

December 31, 2016, the increase in the average balance of loans outstanding was primarily attributable to loan originations in excess of repayments, while the decrease in the average yield earned on net loans receivable was primarily attributable to lower rates on new loans originated. During fiscal 2015, 2016 and into fiscal 2017, the Company enjoyed higher demand for single-family home purchase loans. Substantially all of our loan originations and purchases were fixed-rate with a mix of 15, 20, and 30 year terms.

Interest income on investment securities increased $0.042 million or 9.11% and $0.044 million or 4.55% for the three and six months ended December 31, 2016, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2015. The increase for the three months ended December 31, 2016 was primarily attributable to a $4.577 million increase in the average balance of investment securities outstanding, which was partially offset by a 15 basis point decrease in the weighted average yield on investment securities, when compared to the same period in 2015. The increase for the six months ended December 31, 2016 was primarily attributable to a $1.534 million increase in the average balance of investment securities outstanding, which was partially offset by a decrease in the weighted average yield on investment securities, when compared to the same period in 2015.

Dividend income on FHLB stock remained unchanged and decreased $0.012 million or 6.90% for the three and six months ended December 31, 2016, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2015. The change in dividends on FHLB stock for the three months ended December 31, 2016 was attributable to a 26 basis point decrease in the yield earned on FHLB stock, and partially offset by a $0.340 million increase in the average balance of FHLB stock held during the three months ended December 31, 2016, when compared to the same period in 2015. The decrease in dividends on FHLB stock for the six months ended December 31, 2016 was attributable to a 57 basis point decrease in the yield earned on FHLB stock, which was offset by a $0.242 million decrease in the average balance of FHLB stock held during the six months ended December 31, 2016, when compared to the same period in 2015.

Interest income on mortgage-backed securities increased $0.015 million or 2.95% and $0.047 million or 4.59% for the three and six months ended December 31, 2016, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2015. The increase for the three months ended December 31, 2016 was primarily attributable to a 28 basis point increase in the weighted average yield earned on U.S. Government agency mortgage-backed securities, which more than offset a $22.732 million decrease in the average balance of U.S. Government agency mortgage-backed securities, when compared to the same period in 2015. The increase for the six months ended December 31, 2016 was primarily attributable to a 28 basis point increase in the weighted average yield earned on U.S. Government agency mortgage-backed securities, which more than offset a $20.473 million decrease in the average balance of U.S. Government agency mortgage-backed securities, when compared to the same period in 2015. The decrease in the average balances of U.S. Government agency private-label mortgage-backed securities during the three and six months ended December 31, 2016 was attributable to principal paydowns during the periods. The decrease in the average balance of U.S. Government agency mortgage-backed securities for the three and six months ended December 31, 2015, was primarily attributable to repayments of $6.0 million and $17.1 million, respectively, on the U.S. Government agency mortgage-backed securities portfolio, during the three and six months ended December 31, 2015, which were partially offset by purchases of U.S. Government agency mortgage-backed securities totaling $6.8 million during the three and six months ended December 31, 2015. The mortgage-backed securities proceeds during both periods were primarily used to fund loan originations and purchases of certificates of deposit.

Interest income on bank certificates of deposit increased $0.032 million and $0.040 million for the three and six months ended December 31, 2016, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2015. The increase for the three and six months ended December 31, 2016 was primarily attributable to an increase in the average portfolio balance of certificates of deposit of $9.384 million and $5.865 million, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2015. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2016, the Company purchased large dollar floating rate certificates of deposit to better position itself for a possible increase in market interest rates. Funds used to purchase the certificates of deposit were primarily from repayments on the Company’s mortgage-backed securities portfolio.

Interest Expense.    Interest paid on FHLB variable-rate long term advances decreased by $0.073 million or 80.22% and $0.147 million or 84.97%, respectively, for the three and six months ended December 31, 2016 when compared to the same periods in 2015. The decrease in interest expense on FHLB variable-rate long term advances for the three months ended December 31, 2016 was primarily attributable to a $99.196 million decrease in the average balance of FHLB variable-rate long term advances outstanding which was partially offset by an 83 basis point increase in the weighted average rate paid on such advances, when compared to the same period in 2015. The decrease in interest expense on FHLB variable-rate long term advances for the six months ended December 31, 2016 was primarily attributable to a $99.196 million decrease in the average balance of such advances partially offset by a 52 basis point increase in the weighted average rate paid when compared to the same period in 2015. The Company reduced this funding source in both periods by increasing FHLB short-term advances.

Interest paid on FHLB short-term advances increased $0.183 million and $0.355 million for the three and six months ended December 31, 2016, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2015. The increase for the three months ended December 31, 2016 was primarily attributable to a $111.621 million increase in the average balance of FHLB short-term advances outstanding and a 20 basis point increase in the weighted average rate paid on FHLB short-term advances, when compared to the same period in 2015. The increase for the six months ended December 31, 2016, was primarily attributable to a $108.994 million increase in the average balance of short-term FHLB advances, and a 22 basis point increase in the weighted average rate paid on FHLB short-term advances, when compared to the same period in 2015.

Interest paid on other short-term borrowings decreased by $1 thousand and $8 thousand, respectively, for the three and six months ended December 31, 2016, when compared to the same periods in 2015. The decrease in interest expense on other short-term borrowings for the three months ended December 31, 2016 was primarily attributable to a $1.495 million decrease in the average balance of other short-term borrowings when compared to the same period in 2015. The decrease in interest expense on other short-term borrowings for the six months ended December 31, 2016 was primarily attributable to a $3.906 million decrease in the average balance of other short-term borrowings when compared to the same period in 2015. Interest paid on FHLB fixed rate long-term advances decreased by $0.033 million or 23.24% and $0.066 million or 23.24% for the three and six months ended December 31, 2016, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2015. The decrease in interest expense on FHLB long-term advances for the three and six months ended December 31, 2016 was primarily attributable to a $2.500 million decrease in the average balance of such advances and an 18 basis point decrease in the weighted average rate paid when compared to the same periods in 2015.

Interest expense on deposits remained unchanged and increased $0.004 million or 3.77% for the three and six months ended December 31, 2016, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2015. The increase in interest expense on deposits for the six months ended December 31, 2016 was primarily attributable to a 7 basis point increase in the weighted average rate paid on time deposits, which was partially offset by a $2.423 million decrease in the average balance of time deposits for the six months ended December 31, 2016, when compared to the same period in 2015.

Provision for Loan Losses. A provision for loan losses is charged to earnings (while credit provision for loan losses are accretive to earnings) to maintain the total allowance at a level considered adequate by management to absorb potential losses in the portfolio. Management’s determination of the adequacy of the allowance is based on an evaluation of the portfolio considering past experience, current economic conditions, volume, growth and composition of the loan portfolio, and other relevant factors.

Provisions for loan losses decreased $0.010 million and $0.012 million for the three and six months ended December 31, 2016, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2015. The decrease in the provisions for loan losses for the three and six months ended December 31, 2016, was primarily attributable to lower average volumes of loans within the multi-family and commercial loan segments which more than offset higher average volumes of loans within the owner-occupied single family loan segment when compared to the same periods in 2015. At December 31, 2016, the Company’s total allowance for loan losses amounted to $0.395 million or 0.53% of the Company’s total loan portfolio, as compared to $0.360 million or 0.55% at June 30, 2016. At December 31, 2016, the Company’s non-performing loans totaled $0.250 million as compared to $0.254 million at June 30, 2016.

Non-Interest Income. The decreases for the three and six months ended December 31, 2016 were primarily attributable to a $0.041 million unrealized loss on a trading security and a $0.021 million decrease in investment security gains, which were partially offset by increases in miscellaneous components of other non-interest income, when compared to the same periods in 2015.

Non-Interest Expense.

The decrease for the three months ended December 31, 2016 was principally attributable to a $0.024 million decrease in employee related expenses, when compared to the same period in 2015. The decrease for the six months ended December 31, 2016 was primarily attributable to a $0.037 million decrease in federal deposit insurance premiums, during the six months ended December 31, 2016, when compared to the same period in 2015.

Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense increased $0.003 million and decreased $0.003 million for the three and six months ended December 31, 2016, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2015. The fluctuations for the three and six months ended December 31, 2016 were primarily due to changes in levels of taxable income, during the three and six months ended December 31, 2016, when compared to the same periods in 2015.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $1.197 million during the six months ended December 31, 2016. Net cash provided by operating activities was primarily comprised of net income of $0.793 million, $1.105 million of amortization of discounts, premiums and deferred loan costs, and a $0.194 million decrease in accrued interest receivable, which was partially offset by a $0.960 million purchase of a trading asset.

Funds used for investing activities totaled $4.849 million during the six months ended December 31, 2016. Primary uses of funds during the six months ended December 31, 2016 included purchases of investment securities available for sale totaling $42.256 million, purchases of certificates of deposit totaling $10.135 million, an increase in net loans receivable totaling $9.472 million, and purchases of mortgage-backed securities totaling $7.984 million. Primary sources of funds during the six months ended December 31, 2016 included proceeds from repayments of investments and mortgage-backed securities in the held-to-maturity portfolio totaling $0.833 million and $22.218 million, respectively, proceeds from repayments of investment securities in the available-for-sale portfolio totaling $42.029 million. The mortgage-backed securities repayments were primarily used to offset purchases of certificates of deposit and to fund loan growth.

Funds provided by financing activities totaled $3.695 million for the six months ended December 31, 2016. The primary sources included a $2.503 million increase in transaction and savings accounts and a $2.046 million increase in FHLB short-term advances, which were partially offset by a $0.359 million purchase of treasury stock, a $0.316 million decrease in certificates of deposit and $0.161 million of cash dividend paid. Management believes that a significant portion of our local maturing deposits will remain with the Company. Management has determined that it currently is maintaining adequate liquidity and continues to match funding sources with lending and investment opportunities.

The Company’s primary sources of funds are deposits, amortization, repayments and maturities of existing loans, mortgage-backed securities and investment securities, funds from operations, and funds obtained through FHLB advances and other borrowings. Certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in one year or less at December 31, 2016 totaled $24.110 million.

Historically, the Company used its sources of funds primarily to meet its ongoing commitments to pay maturing savings certificates and savings withdrawals, fund loan commitments and maintain a substantial portfolio of investment securities. At December 31, 2016, total approved loan commitments outstanding were $1.505 million. At the same date, commitments under unused lines of credit amounted to $6.084 million and the unadvanced portion of construction loans approximated $2.375 million. The Company has been able to

generate sufficient cash through the retail deposit market, its traditional funding source, and through FHLB advances, and other borrowings, to provide the cash utilized in investing activities. The Company’s available for sale segment of the investment portfolio totaled $106.754 million at December 31, 2016. In addition the Company had $10.385 million of certificates of deposit at December 31, 2016. Management believes that the Company currently has adequate liquidity available to respond to liquidity demands.

On January 30, 2017, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.06 per share, payable on February 23, 2017, to shareholders of record at the close of business on February 13, 2017.    Dividends are subject to determination and declaration by the Board of Directors, which take into account the Company’s financial condition, statutory and regulatory restrictions, general economic conditions and other factors. There can be no assurance that dividends will in fact be paid on the Common Stock in future periods or that, if paid, such dividends will not be reduced or eliminated.

As of December 31, 2016, WVS Financial Corp. exceeded all regulatory capital requirements and maintained Common Equity Tier I Capital, Tier I, and total risk-based capital equal to $33.609 million or 18.40%, $33.609 million or 18.40%, and $34.041 million or 18.64%, respectively, of total risk-weighted assets, and Tier I leverage capital of $33.609 million or 9.93% of average quarterly assets.

Nonperforming assets consist of nonaccrual loans and real estate owned. A loan is placed on nonaccrual status when, in the judgment of management, the probability of collection of interest is deemed insufficient to warrant further accrual. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, previously accrued but uncollected interest is deducted from interest income. The Company normally does not accrue interest on loans past due 90 days or more, however, interest may be accrued if management believes that it will collect on the loan.

The Company’s nonperforming assets at December 31, 2016 totaled $0.250 million or 0.07% of total assets as compared to $0.254 million or 0.08% of total assets at June 30, 2016. Nonperforming assets at December 31, 2016 consisted of one single-family real estate loan totaling $0.250 million. The loan is currently under a bankruptcy order and making payments as agreed.    

The $4 thousand decrease in nonperforming assets during the six months ended December 31, 2016 was primarily attributable to principal repayments on one non-accrual single-family real estate loan.

During the three and six months ended December 31, 2016, the Company collected $5 thousand and $9 thousand, respectively, of interest income on non-accrual loans. Approximately $5 thousand and $8 thousand, respectively, of interest income would have been recorded during the three and six months ended December 31, 2016, on non-accrual loans if such loans had been current according to the original loan agreements for the entire periods. These amounts were not included in the Company’s interest income for the three and six months ended December 31, 2016. The Company continues to work with the borrowers in an attempt to cure the defaults and is also pursuing various legal avenues in order to collect on these loans.

ITEM 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

ASSET AND LIABILITY MANAGEMENT

The Company’s primary market risk exposure is interest rate risk and, to a lesser extent, liquidity risk. All of the Company’s transactions are denominated in US dollars with no specific foreign exchange exposure. The Savings Bank has no agricultural loan assets and therefore would not have a specific exposure to changes in commodity prices. Any impacts that changes in foreign exchange rates and commodity prices would have on interest rates are assumed to be exogenous and will be analyzed on an ex post basis.

Interest rate risk (“IRR”) is the exposure of a banking organization’s financial condition to adverse movements in interest rates. Accepting this risk can be an important source of profitability and shareholder value, however excessive levels of IRR can pose a significant threat to the Company’s earnings and capital base. Accordingly, effective risk management that maintains IRR at prudent levels is essential to the Company’s safety and soundness.

Evaluating a financial institution’s exposure to changes in interest rates includes assessing both the adequacy of the management process used to control IRR and the organization’s quantitative level of exposure. When assessing the IRR management process, the Company seeks to ensure that appropriate policies, procedures, management information systems and internal controls are in place to maintain IRR at prudent levels with consistency and continuity. Evaluating the quantitative level of IRR exposure requires the Company to assess the existing and potential future effects of changes in interest rates on its consolidated financial condition, including capital adequacy, earnings, liquidity, and, where appropriate, asset quality.

Financial institutions derive their income primarily from the excess of interest collected over interest paid. The rates of interest an institution earns on its assets and owes on its liabilities generally are established contractually for a period of time. Since market interest rates change over time, an institution is exposed to lower profit margins (or losses) if it cannot adapt to interest-rate changes. For example, assume that an institution’s assets carry intermediate- or long-term fixed rates and that those assets were funded with short-term liabilities. If market interest rates rise by the time the short-term liabilities must be refinanced, the increase in the institution’s interest expense on its liabilities may not be sufficiently offset if assets continue to earn at the long-term fixed rates. Accordingly, an institution’s profits could decrease on existing assets because the institution will either have lower net interest income or, possibly, net interest expense. Similar risks exist when assets are subject to contractual interest-rate ceilings, or rate sensitive assets are funded by longer-term, fixed-rate liabilities in a decreasing-rate environment.

During the fiscal years 2013 - 2016 and into fiscal year 2017, intermediate and long-term market interest rates fluctuated considerably. Many central banks, including the Federal Reserve, continued above normal levels of monetary accommodation including quantitative easing and targeted asset purchase programs. The desired outcomes of these programs are to stimulate aggregate demand, reduce high levels of unemployment and to further lower market interest rates.

The effect of interest rate changes on a financial institution’s assets and liabilities may be analyzed by examining the “interest rate sensitivity” of the assets and liabilities and by monitoring an institution’s interest rate sensitivity “gap”. An asset or liability is said to be interest rate sensitive within a specific time period if it will mature or reprice within a given time period. A gap is considered positive (negative) when the amount of rate sensitive assets (liabilities) exceeds the amount of rate sensitive liabilities (assets). During a period of falling interest rates, a negative gap would tend to result in an increase in net interest income. During a period of rising interest rates, a positive gap would tend to result in an increase in net interest income.

As part of its asset/liability management strategy, the Company maintained an asset sensitive financial position due to unusually low market interest rates. An asset sensitive financial position may benefit earnings during a period of rising interest rates and reduce earnings during a period of declining interest rates.

The following table sets forth certain information at the dates indicated relating to the Company’s interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities which are estimated to mature or are scheduled to reprice within one year.

The Company utilizes an income simulation model to measure interest rate risk and to manage interest rate sensitivity. The Company believes that income simulation modeling may enable the Company to better estimate the possible effects on net interest income due to changing market interest rates. Other key model parameters include: estimated prepayment rates on the Company’s loan, mortgage-backed securities and investment portfolios; savings decay rate assumptions; and the repayment terms and embedded options of the Company’s borrowings.

The following table presents the simulated impact of a 100 and 200 basis point upward or downward (parallel) shift in market interest rates on net interest income, return on average equity, return on average assets and the market value of portfolio equity at December 31, 2016. This analysis was done assuming that the interest-earning assets will average approximately $334.618 million and $336.137 million over a projected twelve and twenty-four month period, respectively, for the estimated impact on change in net interest income, return on average equity and return on average assets. The estimated changes in market value of equity were calculated using balance sheet levels at December 31, 2016. Actual future results could differ materially from our estimates primarily due to unknown future interest rate changes and the level of prepayments on our investment and loan portfolios.

In the ordinary course of its construction lending business, the Savings Bank enters into performance standby letters of credit. Typically, the standby letters of credit are issued on behalf of a builder to a third party to ensure the timely completion of a certain aspect of a construction project or land development. At December 31, 2016, the Savings Bank had no performance standby letters of credit outstanding. In the event that an obligor is unable to perform its obligations as specified in the applicable letter of credit agreement, the Savings Bank would be obligated to disburse funds up to the amount specified in the letter of credit agreement. The Savings Bank maintains adequate collateral that could be liquidated to fund these contingent obligations.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of December 31, 2016, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting Officer, on the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based on that evaluation, the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting Officer, concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2016.

Disclosure controls and procedures are the controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in its reports filed and submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange 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 the Company in its reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the principal executive officer and principal accounting officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2016, no change in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) has occurred that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.
