Stockholders' Equity and Regulatory Capital

NOTE 13: Stockholders’ Equity and Regulatory Capital

On November 22, 2011, the Company completed an underwritten public offering of common shares in which it sold 1,150,000 shares to the public for $19.00 per share, for aggregate gross proceeds of $21.9 million. The net proceeds to the Company after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses were $19.9 million. The proceeds from the offering are being used for general corporate purposes, including the funding of loan growth and the purchase of securities.

The Company and Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the Federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can result in certain mandatory - and possibly additional discretionary - actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company and the Bank’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company and Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Furthermore, the Company and

Bank’s regulators could require adjustments to regulatory capital not reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total capital and Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined) and of Tier 1 capital (as defined) to average total assets (as defined). Management believes, as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, that the Company and the Bank meet all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

As of June 30, 2012, the most recent notification from the Federal Reserve categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s category.

The tables below summarize the Company and Bank’s actual and required regulatory capital:

The Bank’s ability to pay dividends on its common stock to the Company is restricted to maintain adequate capital as shown in the above tables. Additionally, prior regulatory approval is required for the declaration of any dividends generally in excess of the sum of net income for that calendar year and retained net income for the preceding two calendar years. At June 30, 2012, approximately $21.0 million of the equity of the Bank was available for distribution as dividends to the Company without prior regulatory approval.
