Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Related Matters

NOTE 1 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND RELATED MATTERS

The accounting and reporting policies of PVF Capital Corp. (the “Company”) conform to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and general industry practice. The Company’s principal subsidiary, Park View Federal Savings Bank (the “Bank”) is primarily engaged in the business of offering deposits through the issuance of savings accounts, money market accounts, and certificates of deposit and lending funds primarily for the purchase, construction, and improvement of real estate in Cuyahoga, Summit, Geauga, Lake, Medina, Lorain and Portage Counties, Ohio. The deposit accounts of the Bank are insured up to applicable limits by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”). The following is a description of the significant policies which the Company follows in preparing and presenting its consolidated financial statements.

Basis of Presentation: The accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial information and the instructions for Form #10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements do not contain all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012. These consolidated financial statements are prepared without audit and reflect all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company at March 31, 2013, and its results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. All such adjustments are normal and recurring in nature. The accounting principles used to prepare the consolidated financial statements are in compliance with U.S. GAAP. However, the financial statements were prepared in accordance with the instructions of Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not purport to contain all necessary financial and note disclosures required by U.S. GAAP.

Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, the Bank, PVF Service Corporation (“PVFSC”), Mid Pines Land Company, PVF Holdings, Inc., PVF Mortgage Corp. and PVF Community Development Corp. PVFSC owns certain premises and leases them to the Bank. Mid Pines Land Company, PVF Holdings, Inc., PVF Mortgage Corp. and PVF Community Development Corp. did not have any significant assets or activity as of or for the periods presented. All significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.

PVFSC and the Bank have entered into various nonconsolidated joint ventures that own real estate, including properties leased to the Bank. The Bank has created various limited liability companies that have taken title to property acquired through or in lieu of foreclosure.

Use of Estimates: The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The allowance for loan losses, valuation of mortgage servicing rights, fair value of mortgage banking derivatives, valuation of loans held for sale, fair value of securities, valuation of other real estate owned, and the realizability of deferred tax assets are particularly susceptible to change.
