These interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared according to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and, therefore, certain information and footnote disclosures normally presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted or abbreviated.  The information contained in the consolidated financial statements and footnotes in PSB’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 should be referred to in connection with the reading of these unaudited interim financial statements.


In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and revenues and expenses for the period.  Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.  Estimates that are susceptible to significant change include the determination of the allowance for loan losses, mortgage servicing right assets, and the valuation of investment securities.


NOTE 2 – STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION


Under the terms of an incentive stock option plan adopted during 2001, shares of unissued common stock were reserved for options to officers and key employees at prices not less than the fair market value of the shares at the date of the grant.  These options expire 10 years after the grant date with the options scheduled to expire during 2011 and 2012.   No additional shares of common stock remain reserved for future grants under the option plan approved by the shareholders.  As of September 30, 2010, 3,645 options were outstanding and eligible to be exercised at a weighted average exercise price of $15.99 per share.  As of December 31, 2009, 4,281 options were outstanding and eligible to be exercised at a weighted average exercise price of $15.96 per share.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, 636 options lapsed that were eligible to be exercised at $15.84 per share.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2009, 195 options lapsed th at were eligible to be exercised at $15.86 per share.  No options were exercised during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009.


PSB granted restricted stock to certain employees having an initial market value of $75 and $150 during the three months ended March 31, 2010, and 2009, respectively.  Restricted shares vest to employees based on continued PSB service over a six-year period and are recognized as compensation expense over the vesting period.  Cash dividends are paid on unvested shares at the same time and amount as paid to PSB common shareholders.  Cash dividends paid on unvested restricted stock shares are charged to retained earnings as significantly all restricted shares are expected to vest to employees.  Unvested shares are subject to forfeiture upon employee termination.  During the nine months ended September 30, compensation expense recorded from amortization of restricted shares expected to vest to employees was $31 and $18 during 2010 and 2009, respectively.

NOTE 3 – EARNINGS PER SHARE


Basic earnings per share of common stock are based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Unvested but issued restricted shares are considered to be outstanding shares and used to calculate the weighted average number of shares outstanding and determine net book value per share.  Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares adjusted for the dilutive effect of outstanding stock options.

NOTE 5 – LOANS RECEIVABLE AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES


Loans receivable are stated at unpaid principal balances plus net deferred loan origination costs less loans in process and the allowance for loan losses.


Interest on loans is credited to income as earned.  Interest income is not accrued on loans where management has determined collection of such interest is doubtful or those loans which are past due 90 days or more as to principal or interest payments.  When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, previously accrued but unpaid interest deemed uncollectible is reversed and charged against current income.  After being placed on nonaccrual status, additional income is recorded only to the extent that payments are received or the collection of principal becomes reasonably assured.  Interest income recognition on loans considered to be impaired under current accounting standards is consistent with the recognition on all other loans.


Loan origination fees and certain direct loan origination costs are deferred and amortized to income over the contractual life of the underlying loan.


The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged to expense.  Loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses when management believes that the collectibility of the principal is unlikely.  Determining the appropriate time to charge-off loan principal requires judgment and satisfaction of various factors during the collection or work-out period.  In general, unsecured loans delinquent 90 days or more are charged off against the allowance for loan losses.  As a practical matter, principal is charged off when there is no expectation of future cash payments following liquidation of collateral, a business ceases to operate, the borrower declares bankruptcy, collateral is received in satisfaction of the debt as foreclosed property following any legal redemption period, or in other similar circumstances.  Management believes the allowance for loan losses is adequate to cover probable credit losses relating to specificall y identified loans, as well as probable credit losses inherent in the balance of the loan portfolio.  In accordance with current accounting standards, the allowance is provided for losses that have been incurred as of the balance sheet date.  The allowance is based on past events and current economic conditions, and does not include the effects of expected losses on specific loans or groups of loans that are related to future events or expected changes in economic conditions.  While management uses the best information available to make its evaluation, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if there are significant changes in economic conditions.


The allowance for loan losses includes specific allowances related to loans which have been judged to be impaired as defined by current accounting standards.  A loan is impaired when, based on current information, it is probable that PSB will not collect all amounts due in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement.  Management has determined that commercial, financial, agricultural, and commercial real estate loans that have a nonaccrual status or have had their terms restructured meet this definition.  Large groups of homogenous loans, such as residential mortgage and consumer loans, are collectively evaluated for impairment.  Specific allowances are



-8-





based on discounted cash flows of expected future payments using the loan’s initial effective interest rate or the fair value of collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.


In addition, various regulatory agencies periodically review the allowance for loan losses.  These agencies may require PSB to make additions to the allowance for loan losses based on their judgments of collectibility based on information available to them at the time of their examination.


Mortgage loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at the lower of cost or estimated market value in the aggregate and are carried as “Loans held for sale” on the balance sheet.  Net unrealized losses are recognized through a valuation allowance by charges to income.  Gains and losses on the sale of loans held for sale are determined using the specific identification method using quoted market prices.


NOTE 6 – FORECLOSED ASSETS


Real estate and other property acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are to be sold and are initially recorded at fair value (after deducting estimated costs to sell) at the date of foreclosure, establishing a new cost basis.  Costs related to development and improvement of property are capitalized, whereas costs related to holding property are expensed.  After foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management, and the real estate or other property is carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less estimated costs to sell.  Revenue and expenses from operations and changes in any valuation allowance are included in loss on foreclosed assets.


NOTE 7 – DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES


All derivative instruments are recorded at their fair values.  If derivative instruments are designated as hedges of fair values, both the change in the fair value of the hedge and the hedged item are included in current earnings.  Fair value adjustments related to cash flow hedges are recorded in other comprehensive income and reclassified to earnings when the hedged transaction is reflected in earnings.  Ineffective portions of hedges are reflected in income.


PSB uses an interest rate swap agreement to manage risk related to interest rate movements on $7.5 million of its junior subordinated debentures.  The contract has been designated and qualifies as a cash flow hedge and is reported at its fair value.  The contract is deemed to be fully effective and, therefore, its fair value is included as part of comprehensive income.  As interest on the related debt is paid, a portion of the amount in other comprehensive income will be reclassified to earnings.  PSB’s interest rate risk management strategy is to stabilize cash flow requirements by maintaining the interest rate swap contract to convert variable rate payments on its junior subordinated debentures to a fixed rate.  Consistent with the classification of interest payments on the related debt, the cash settlements associated with the interest rate swap are presented as operating activities in the statement of cash flows.


At September 30, 2010, the notional amount of the interest rate swap was $7.5 million and the cumulative $363 loss ($222 after income tax effects) in the swap contract’s fair value has been included in other comprehensive income (loss).  As of September 30, 2010, PSB expects to reclassify approximately $176 of pretax losses on the swap from accumulated other comprehensive loss to reduce earnings during the next 12 months due to the actual fulfillment of forecasted transactions.


NOTE 8 – CONTINGENCIES


In the normal course of business, PSB is involved in various legal proceedings.  In the opinion of management, any liability resulting from such proceedings would not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial statements.


NOTE 9 – HOLDING COMPANY LINE OF CREDIT


PSB maintains an unsecured line of credit at the parent holding company level with U.S. Bank for advances up to $1 million, which expires February 28, 2011.  The line carries a variable rate of interest based on changes in the 30-day London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 2.50%.  PSB was in compliance with all financial covenants associated with the line as of September 30, 2010.  As of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, no advances were outstanding on the line.

NOTE 10 – JUNIOR SUBORDINATED DEBENTURES


PSB has issued $7,732 of junior subordinated debentures to PSB Holdings Statutory Trust I in connection with an issue of trust preferred securities during 2005.  During September 2010, the initial fixed interest rate period stated in the debentures expired, and PSB entered into a $7.5 million interest rate swap contract to convert the debentures’ floating rate interest payments to fixed payments and has designated the swap as a cash flow hedge.  The initial debenture fixed rate was 5.82%.  The interest rate swap contract converts the debentures’ floating rate payments equal to the 90 day LIBOR rate plus 1.70% to an all-in fixed rate of 4.42% through September 2017.


NOTE 11 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS


Certain assets and liabilities are recorded and disclosed at fair value to provide financial statement users additional insight into PSB’s quality of earnings.  Under current accounting guidance, PSB groups assets and liabilities which are recorded at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value.  A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement (with Level 1 considered highest and Level 3 considered lowest).  All transfers between levels are recognized as occurring at the end of the reporting period.  


Following is a brief description of each level of the fair value hierarchy:


Level 1 – Fair value measurement is based on quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.


Level 2 – Fair value measurement is based on 1) quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; 2) quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or 3) valuation models and methodologies for which all significant assumptions are or can be corroborated by observable market data.


Level 3 – Fair value measurement is based on valuation models and methodologies that incorporate at least one significant assumption that cannot be corroborated by observable market data.  Level 3 measurements reflect PSB’s estimates about assumptions market participants would use in measuring fair value of the asset or liability.


Some assets and liabilities, such as securities available for sale and loans held for sale, are measured at fair value on a recurring basis under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.  Other assets and liabilities, such as impaired loans, foreclosed assets, mortgage servicing rights, mortgage rate lock commitments, and guarantee liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.


Following is a description of the valuation methodology used for each asset and liability measured at fair value on a recurring or nonrecurring basis, as well as the classification of the asset or liability within the fair value hierarchy.


Securities available for sale – Securities available for sale may be classified as Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 measurements within the fair value hierarchy.  Level 1 securities include equity securities traded on a national exchange.  The fair value measurement of a Level 1 security is based on the quoted price of the security.  Level 2 securities include U.S. government and agency securities, obligations of states and political subdivisions, corporate debt securities, and mortgage related securities.  The fair value measurement of a Level 2 security is obtained from an independent pricing service and is based on recent sales of similar securities and other observable market data and represents a market approach to fair value.  


Level 3 securities include trust preferred securities and senior subordinated notes issued by Wisconsin headquartered banks that are not traded in an active market.  The fair value measurement of a Level 3 security is based on a discounted cash flow model that incorporates assumptions market participants would use to measure the fair value of the security which represents an income approach to fair value.  At September 30, 2010, $1,867 (approximately 98% of Level 3 securities) were privately placed trust preferred capital or senior subordinated debt issued by Wisconsin headquartered banks with current coupons ranging from 6.50% to 8.00%.  At September 30, 2010, these securities assumed a discount rate for estimated future cash flows based on credit spreads ranging from 6.50% to 9.40% for discount periods ranging from approximately two to eight years.


Loans – Loans are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis.  However, loans considered to be impaired (see Note 5) may be measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.  The fair value measurement of an impaired loan that is collateral dependent is based on the fair value of the underlying collateral.  All other impaired loan fair value



-10-





measurements are based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the applicable effective interest rate and, thus, are not fair value measurements.  Fair value measurements of underlying collateral that utilize observable market data, such as independent appraisals reflecting recent comparable sales, are considered Level 2 measurements.  Other fair value measurements that incorporate internal collateral appraisals or estimated assumptions market participants would use to measure fair value, such as discounted cash flow measurements, are considered Level 3 measurements and represent an income approach to fair value.


Foreclosed assets – Real estate and other property acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis.  Initially, foreclosed assets are recorded at fair value less estimated costs to sell at the date of foreclosure.  Valuations are periodically performed by management, and the real estate or other property is carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less estimated costs to sell.  Fair value measurements are based on current formal or informal appraisals of property value compared to recent comparable sales of similar property.  Independent appraisals reflecting comparable sales are considered Level 2 measurements, while internal assessments of appraised value based on current market activity are considered Level 3 measurements and represent an income approach to fair value.


Mortgage servicing rights – Mortgage servicing rights are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis.  However, mortgage servicing rights that are impaired are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.  Serviced loan pools are stratified by year of origination and term of the loan, and a valuation model is used to calculate the present value of expected future cash flows for each stratum.  When the carrying value of a stratum exceeds its fair value, the stratum is measured at fair value.  The valuation model incorporates assumptions that market participants would use in estimating future net servicing income, such as costs to service, a discount rate, custodial earnings rate, ancillary income, default rates and losses, and prepayment speeds.  Although some of these assumptions are based on observable market data, other assumptions are based on unobservable estimates of what market participants would use to measure fair value.  As a result, the fair value measurement of mortgage servicing rights is considered a Level 3 measurement and represents an income approach to fair value.  Significant unobservable inputs at September 30, 2010 used to measure fair value included:


·

Servicing cost of $100 per loan annually

·

Cash flow discount rate ranging from 8.25% to 12%, depending on year of origination

·

Short-term reinvestment rate on the float of payments to investors equal to .50%

·

Estimated future delinquent loans as a percentage of the serviced loan pool equal to 0.7%

·

Estimated foreclosed principal as a percentage of the serviced loan pool equal to .25%


Mortgage rate lock commitments – The fair value of mortgage rate lock commitments is not measured on a recurring basis.  Fair value is based on current secondary market pricing for delivery of similar loans and the value of originated mortgage servicing rights on loans expected to be delivered.  Although some of these assumptions are based on observable market data, other assumptions are based on unobservable estimates of what market participants would use to measure fair value.  As a result, the fair value measurement of mortgage rate lock commitments is considered a Level 3 measurement and represent an income approach to fair value.  Significant unobservable inputs at September 30, 2010 used to measure fair value included:


·

Estimated failure to close on 10% of period-end rate lock commitments

·

Estimated combined cash gain on sale of principal and originated mortgage servicing rate equal to 1% of mortgage rate lock loan principal


Interest rate swap agreements – Fair values for interest rate swap agreements are based on the amounts required to settle the contracts based on valuations provided by third-party dealers in the contracts.


Guarantee liability – Guarantees by PSB of customer payment obligations to a third party are measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs on a nonrecurring basis.  Fair value measurements include fair value of interest rate swaps covered by the guarantee, transaction fees received for offering the guarantee, and the credit risk and performance of the customer for which the guarantee is given.  Because recognition of initial transaction fees adjusted by amortization of such fees over the period of the guarantee is used to estimate fair value, these measurements represent a cost approach to fair value.  There was no guarantee liability outstanding at September 30, 2010.

At September 30, 2010, loans with a carrying amount of $2,961 were considered impaired and were written down to their estimated fair value of $1,371 net of a valuation allowance of $1,590.  At December 31, 2009, loans with a

carrying amount of $9,452 were considered impaired and were written down to their estimated fair value of $7,464, net of a valuation allowance of $1,988.  Changes in the valuation allowances are reflected through earnings as a component of the provision for loan losses.


At September 30, 2010, mortgage servicing rights with a carrying amount of $1,278 were considered impaired and were written down to their estimated fair value of $1,042, resulting in an impairment allowance of $236.  At December 31, 2009, mortgage servicing rights with a carrying amount of $1,229 were considered impaired and were written down to their estimated fair value of $1,147, resulting in an impairment charge of $82.  Changes in the impairment allowances are reflected through earnings as a component of mortgage banking income.


PSB estimates fair value of all financial instruments regardless of whether such instruments are measured at fair value.  The following methods and assumptions were used by PSB to estimate fair value of financial instruments not previously discussed.


Cash and cash equivalents - Fair value approximates the carrying value.


Loans – Fair value of variable rate loans that reprice frequently are based on carrying values.  Fair value of other loans is estimated by discounting future cash flows using current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings.  Fair value of impaired and other nonperforming loans are estimated using discounted expected future cash flows or the fair value of underlying collateral, if applicable.


Loans held for sale – Loans held for sale in the secondary market are carried at the lower of aggregate cost or estimated fair value.  The fair value measurement of a loan held for sale is based on current secondary market prices for similar loans, which is considered a Level 2 measurement.


Federal Home Loan Bank stock – Fair value is the redeemable (carrying) value based on the redemption provisions of the Federal Home Loan Bank.


Accrued interest receivable and payable – Fair value approximates the carrying value.


Cash value of life insurance – Fair value is based on reported values of the assets by the issuer which are redeemable to the insured.


Deposits – Fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as demand deposits, savings, and money market accounts, by definition, is the amount payable on demand on the reporting date.  Fair value of fixed rate time deposits is estimated using discounted cash flows applying interest rates currently being offered on similar time deposits.


FHLB advances and other borrowings – Fair value of fixed rate, fixed term borrowings is estimated by discounting future cash flows using the current rates at which similar borrowings would be made.  Fair value of borrowings with variable rates or maturing within 90 days approximates the carrying value of these borrowings.


Senior subordinated notes and junior subordinated debentures – Fair value of fixed rate, fixed term notes and debentures are estimated by discounting future cash flows using the current rates at which similar borrowings would be made.

NOTE 12 – CURRENT YEAR ACCOUNTING CHANGES


FASB ASC Topic 810, “Consolidation.” New authoritative accounting guidance under ASC Topic 810 amended prior guidance to change how a company determines when an entity that is insufficiently capitalized or is not controlled through voting (or similar rights) should be consolidated. The determination of whether a company is required to consolidate an entity is based on, among other things, an entity’s purpose and design and a company’s ability to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance. The new authoritative accounting guidance requires additional disclosures about the reporting entity’s involvement with variable-interest entities and any significant changes in risk exposure due to that involvement as well as its affect on the entity’s financial statements. The new authoritative accounting guidance under ASC Topic 810 was effective January 1, 2010 but had no significant impa ct on our financial statements.


FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.”  New authoritative disclosure guidance under Topic 820 was designed to increase transparency of fair value disclosures.  Under the new guidance, transfers between fair value Levels 1 and 2 must be described and disclosed separately.  In addition, the reconciliation of Level 3 fair value measurements should present activity separately rather than as one net number.  Also, fair value measurement disclosures should include disclosures for each class of assets and liabilities, which class may be a subset of a line item in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.  Lastly, disclosures about valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring items are required for measurements that fall in either Level 2 or Level 3.  The new disclosures were effective for interim periods beginning January 1, 2010 except for disclosures related to items in the r econciliation of Level 3 fair value measurements, which are effective for interim periods beginning January 1, 2011.  The new disclosure did not a have a significant impact on the presentation of our financial statements.


FASB ASC Topic 860, “Transfers and Servicing.” New authoritative accounting guidance under ASC Topic 860, “Transfers and Servicing,” amended prior accounting guidance to enhance reporting about transfers of financial assets, including securitizations, and where companies have continuing exposure to the risks related to transferred financial assets. The new authoritative accounting guidance eliminates the concept of a “qualifying special-purpose entity” and changes the requirements for derecognizing financial assets. The new authoritative accounting guidance also requires additional disclosures about all continuing involvements with transferred financial assets including information about gains and losses resulting from transfers during the period. The new authoritative accounting



-15-





guidance under ASC Topic 860 was effective for transactions occurring after December 31, 2009 and did not have a significant impact on our financial statements.


NOTE 13 – FUTURE ACCOUNTING CHANGE


FASB ASC Topic 310, “Receivables.” New authoritative accounting guidance issued in July 2010 under ASC Topic 310, “Receivables,” will require extensive new disclosures surrounding the allowance for loan losses although it does not change any credit loss recognition or measurement rules.  The new rules require disclosures to include a breakdown of allowance for loan loss activity by portfolio segment as well as problem loan disclosures by detailed class of loan.  In addition, disclosures on internal credit grading metrics and information on impaired, nonaccrual, and restructured loans are also required.  The new period-end disclosures are effective for financial periods ending December 31, 2010 and disclosures of loan loss allowance activity are effective for the quarter ended March 31, 2011.  Adoption of these new disclosures under ASC Topic 310 is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements.


NOTE 14 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS


Management has reviewed PSB’s operations for potential disclosure of information or financial statement impacts related to events occurring after September 30, 2010 but prior to the release of these financial statements.  Based on the results of this review, no subsequent event disclosures are required as of the release date.


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


Management’s discussion and analysis (“MD&A”) reviews significant factors with respect to our financial condition as of September 30, 2010 compared to December 31, 2009 and results of our operations for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to the results of operations for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2009.  The following MD&A concerning our operations is intended to satisfy three principal objectives:


·

Provide a narrative explanation of our financial statements that enables investors to see the company through the eyes of management.


·

Enhance the overall financial disclosure and provide the context within which our financial information should be analyzed.


·

Provide information about the quality of, and potential variability of, our earnings and cash flow, so that investors can ascertain the likelihood that past performance is, or is not, indicative of future performance.


Management’s discussion and analysis, like other portions of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, includes forward-looking statements that are provided to assist in the understanding of anticipated future financial performance.  However, our anticipated future financial performance involves risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those described in our forward-looking statements.  A cautionary statement regarding forward-looking statements is set forth under the caption “Forward-Looking Statements” in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, and, from time to time, in our other filings with the Securities Exchange Commission.  We do not intend to update forward-looking statements.  This discussion and analysis should be considered in light of that cautionary statement.  Additional risk factors relating to an investment in our common stock are also described under It em 1A of the 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K.


This discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements, notes, tables, and the selected financial data presented elsewhere in this report.  All figures are in thousands, except per share data and per employee data.

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW


Results of Operations


September 2010 quarterly net income was $1,331, or $.85 per diluted share compared to quarterly net income of $738, or $.47 per diluted share during the September 2009 quarter.  Current quarterly net income increased $535 (after tax impacts) due to higher net interest income, increased $173 (after tax impacts) from lower provision for loan losses and loss on foreclosed assets, and increased $147 (after tax impacts) from increased services fees and other noninterest income which offset a $255 increase (after tax impacts) in operating expenses.


For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, net income was $3,420, or $2.19 per diluted share compared to $2,627, or $1.68 per diluted share during 2009, an increase of 30%.  Year to date net income increased $1,083 over 2009 (after tax impacts) from higher net interest income which offset a $442 increase (after tax impacts) in operating expenses, excluding loss on foreclosed assets.  Increased service fee and investment sales commission income during 2010 offset much of a decline in 2009 mortgage banking so that total noninterest income declined $98 (after tax impacts).  Current year to date income also benefited from a $251 decline (after tax impacts) in provision for loan losses and loss on foreclosed assets.


Year to date, higher net interest margin has provided 72% of the increase in tax adjusted net interest income due primarily to existence of interest floors on the majority of our floating rate loans receivable.  As loan growth is expected to remain slow during coming quarters, we would need to rely on increased margin to drive an increase in net interest income, which has been a significant factor of our increased earnings during 2010.  If market interest rates that influence deposit pricing were to rise, we are likely to experience a period of rising funding costs while floating rate loans with “in the money” floors remain at the same yield, pressuring net interest margin and potentially lowering net interest income.


Nonperforming loans decreased $3,911 to $9,387 at September 30, 2010 compared to $13,298 at December 31, 2009 due primarily to final foreclosures on $3,007 of loan principal prior to related loan charge offs totaling $1,171.  Separate from this activity, net nonperforming loans increased $267 during the year to date period.  Foreclosed assets increased $1,978 (net of $1,029 of foreclosed property basis sold) to $5,754 at September 30, 2010 compared to $3,776 at December 31, 2009.  Total nonperforming assets were $15,141 at September 30, 2010 and $17,074 at December 31, 2009, a decline of 11%.  Total nonperforming assets as a percentage of total assets were 2.52% and 2.81% at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.  While we are cautiously optimistic on further steady improvements in our credit risk position, our customer base continues to experience credit stress and we could experience an increase in problem loans in future quarters if economic conditions remain depressed.


Liquidity


Total assets were $600.2 million at September 30, 2010 compared to $606.9 million at December 31, 2009 and $586.6 million at September 30, 2009.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, total assets decreased $6.7 million primarily from a decline of $6.8 million in commercial related loans as certain borrowers worked to reduce their debt loads in response to a continued slow economy and credit demand remained weak in our current markets.  We do not expected a significant increase in credit demand in our markets in the near term and may experience low levels of loan growth or a loan principal decline, potentially decreasing net interest margin and therefore net income.


During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, core deposits declined $18.6 million with reductions seen in all core deposit categories, ranging from approximately 4% of money market deposits, to 4% of interest bearing demand and savings, 7% of noninterest bearing demand, and 11% of retail time deposits.  However, approximately $7.7 million of these core funds were municipal deposits moved from low interest bearing NOW accounts to certificates of deposit greater than $100 in the Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service (“CDARS”) program, as municipal customers sought to increase yield while gaining FDIC principal guarantee under CDARS.  Much of these deposit flows are seasonal and core deposits increased $9.4 million at September 30, 2010 compared to September 30, 2009.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, wholesale funding including FHLB advances, brokered certificates of deposit, repurchase agreements and federal funds purchased incr eased $262, or 0.2% to $164,026 (27.3% of total assets) compared to $163,764 at December 31, 2009 (27.0% of assets).




-17-





At September 30, 2010, unused (but available) wholesale funding was approximately $176 million, or 29% of total assets, compared to $188 million, or 31% of total assets at December 31, 2009.  Certain municipal securities held in PSB’s investment portfolio may also be available for pledging as collateral against repurchase agreements and FHLB advances under conditions dictated by the lender.  However, due to the difficulty and uncertainty of the amount ultimately available as collateral, unpledged municipal securities are not considered available for funding in our internal analysis of liquidity flexibility or in the figures reported as unused but available wholesale funding.  Our ability to borrow funds on a short-term basis from the Federal Reserve Discount Window is an important part of our liquidity analysis.  Although we had no Discount Window amounts outstanding, approximately 44% of unused but available liquidity at September 30, 2010 was represented by av ailable Discount Window advances compared to 40% of available liquidity at December 31, 2009.  Discount Window advances are collateralized by performing commercial related loans held in our portfolio and line availability is dependent on such pledged loans continuing to perform according to terms.  


Capital Resources


We are considered well-capitalized under regulatory capital rules with total risk adjusted capital of 13.94% at September 30, 2010, up from 12.49% at December 31, 2009 due to retained quarterly net income and a 6.7% reduction in total regulatory risk-weighted assets compared to the end of 2009.  Risk-weighted assets have declined because the reduction in total assets was led by a decline in commercial related loans which carry a 100% risk weighting (as defined by current regulations).  In addition, risk-weighted assets declined approximately $5.9 million during this period due to a customer refinancing transaction with an unrelated lender of certain off balance sheet debt obligations previously guaranteed by us to a correspondent bank.  Average common stockholders’ equity (excluding accumulated other comprehensive income) to average assets was 6.99% and 6.91% during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  


Approximately 23% of our total regulatory capital at September 30, 2010 is comprised of debt instruments including junior and senior debentures and notes which, unlike common stock, require quarterly payments of interest.  Therefore, although no current plans exist, future capital needs during the next several years would likely be met by issuance of our authorized common or preferred stock as needed.  Due to relatively high cost of capital options, we do not expect to buy back significant treasury stock shares during 2010, although we do expect to continue to pay our traditional semi-annual cash dividend assuming continued profitable operations and projections of adequate future capital levels for growth.


Off Balance –Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations


Our largest volume off-balance sheet activity involves our servicing of payments and related collection activities on approximately $253 million of residential 1 to 4 family mortgages sold to FHLB and FNMA, up from $238 million at December 31, 2009.  At September 30, 2010, we have provided a credit enhancement against FHLB loss under five separate “master commitments” together approximating 33% of the total serviced principal (down from 43% at December 31, 2009), up to a maximum guarantee of $1.9 million in the aggregate.  However, we would incur such loss only if the FHLB first lost $2.0 million on this remaining loan pool of approximately $83 million as part of their “First Loss Account” (discussed here in the aggregate, although the guarantee is applied on an individual master commitment basis).  Since inception of our guarantees to the FHLB beginning in 2000, only $0.2 million of $425 million of loans originated with guarantees have incurred a principal loss, all of which has been borne by the FHLB within their First Loss Account.  No loans have been sold by us to the FHLB with our Credit Enhancement Guarantee of principal since October 2008 and we do not intend to originate future loans with the guarantee.


All loans sold to FHLB or FNMA in which we retain the loan servicing are subject to underwriting representations and warranties made by us as the originator and we are subject to annual underwriting audits from both entities.  Our representations and warranties would allow FHLB or FNMA to require us to repurchase inadequately originated loans for any number of underwriting violations.  We have originated loans to these secondary market providers since 2000 and have never been required to repurchase a loan for underwriting or servicing violations, and we do not expect to be required to repurchase loans in the near term.


We provide various commitments to extend credit for both commercial and consumer purposes totaling approximately $87 million at September 30, 2010 compared to $88 million at December 31, 2009.  These lending commitments are a traditional and customary part of lending operations and many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon.




-18-





During the September 2010 quarter, PSB entered into an interest rate swap to lower the cost of fixed rate interest payments due on $7.5 million of our junior subordinated debentures from 5.82% to a new fixed rate of 4.42% through September 2017.  The reduction in fixed rate is estimated to lower interest expense on the debentures by approximately $105 per year.


Recent Government Regulation


The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act was signed into law by President Obama on July 21, 2010.  Dodd-Frank will impact the financial services industry more extensively than any banking legislation since the 1930’s.  Many of the Act’s provisions will affect the nation’s money center and large regional institutions and may not directly impact many community banks.  However, the Act carries some significant provisions that could impact us.  In addition, much of the specifics of the Act are to be implemented by banking regulatory agencies through regulations yet to be written preventing us from knowing the detailed timing or extent of future impacts.


The Act calls for regulatory agencies to draft new minimum leverage and risk-based capital standards.  New, and higher, capital standards will likely be applicable for us upon implementation of the regulations.  Such an increase could cause us to raise new capital, potentially diluting existing common shareholders.  However, the timing and extent of higher regulatory capital levels is not yet known.


Many small banks, including PSB, raise capital from local investors (referred to as “accredited investors”) through private placement offerings not registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Effective in July 2010, new rules require accredited investors to have a minimum net worth of $1 million, excluding the value of their primary residence, to participate in a private placement offering.  The new limitation that excludes the value of an investor’s primary residence could reduce the number of potential investors for future PSB capital offerings, increasing the cost of future capital or making it more difficult to obtain.


Any future issue of hybrid capital instruments such as trust preferred securities may not be included as Tier 1, or “core” capital.  Rather, such hybrid instruments may only be used as Tier 2 capital.  In 2005, PSB issued $7.5 million in trust preferred securities that are currently reflected as core capital and will continue to be considered core under grandfathering provisions of the Act.  However, elimination of future issue hybrid capital instruments such as trust preferred securities from core capital may cause us to issue common or preferred stock shares to raise core capital if needed, potentially diluting existing common stockholders.


The new law directs the Federal Reserve to set interchange rates in electronic debit-card transactions involving issuers with more than $10 billion in assets.  Most community banks, including PSB, will be exempted from these interchange fee restrictions. The Federal Reserve is directed to regulate the “reasonableness” of the fees, and institutions’ losses from fraudulent activity may be factored into the “reasonableness” determination.  In addition, merchants may now discriminate based on payment type (debit card vs. credit card) and, regardless of card association rules, and may set minimum payment amounts to accept cards.  Notwithstanding the “small bank” exemption from the interchange restrictions, community banks may be limited to the transaction interchange rates charged by the largest banks and processing competitors and accordingly, it is possible that interchange fee income at community banks, including PSB, will decrease.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Earnings


Quarter ended September 30, 2010 compared to September 30, 2009


September 2010 quarterly earnings were $.85 per share on net income of $1,331, an increase of $593, or 80% from September 2009 quarterly earnings, which were $.47 per share on net income of $738.  Return on average assets was .87% and .50% during quarters ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  Return on average stockholders’ equity was 11.70% and 6.94% during the quarters ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  


The September 2010 quarter benefited from significantly higher net interest income including a prepayment penalty of $100 collected in connection with a debt refinancing with an existing customer whose relationship was retained.  Absent this nonrecurring interest payment, tax adjusted net interest income increased $783, or 18% during the September 2010 quarter due to higher net interest margin.  A portion of the increased net interest income was offset by higher operating expenses, primarily salaries and employee benefits, of $300 during the quarter.



-19-






Total provision for loan losses and loss on foreclosed assets expense decreased $285 to $666 during the September 2010 quarter compared to $951 during the September 2009 quarter as the prior year quarter saw larger provisions for loss on two separate loans later charged off and currently held in foreclosed assets at September 30, 2010.


Also increasing during the September 2010 quarter were deposit service fees, primarily overdraft income, up $99, or 26% compared to the September 2009 quarter.  We also earned the remaining $64 of guarantee income during the September 2010 quarter following customer refinance of debt with another lender on which we previously had provided a guarantee of principal to a correspondent bank.  The guarantee income is nonrecurring and no further guarantee income associated with a commercial credit is expected.


Nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to September 30, 2009


Earnings during the nine months ended September 2010 were $2.19 per diluted share on net income of $3,420, an increase of $793, or 30% over 2009 earnings which were $1.68 per share on net income of $2,627.  Return on average assets was .76% and .61% during nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  Return on average stockholders’ equity was 10.39% and 8.41% during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  


Higher tax adjusted net interest income has been the most significant revenue increase during 2010 compared to 2009, up $1,787, or 14%.  However, 2010 includes recognition of $108 in interest income upon customer repayment of a nonaccrual loan and a $100 prepayment penalty collected upon refinance of an existing customer’s debt which we retained.  Absent these nonrecurring items, tax adjusted net interest income increased $1,579, or 12%.  


Total provision for loan losses declined $545, or 26%, to $1,555 during the nine months ended September 2010 compared to $2,100 during September 2009.  The majority of existing nonperforming loans were identified during 2009 and significant provision for estimated loan losses were provided during 2009.  However, loss on foreclosed assets increased $131 during 2010 from partial write-downs of properties and ongoing holding costs offsetting a portion of the provision for loan loss decline.


Increased service fees, primarily overdraft income, and investment sales commissions totaling $378 have helped to offset a decline in mortgage banking income of $704 compared to 2009, which saw a wave of customer mortgage refinance as long-term rates reached what were then considered historic lows.  Increased deposit service fee income occurred from reintroduction of our overdraft protection product initiated in connection with our core technology system change.  Investment sales commission income is generally collected up front upon sale of the product and increased from a small number of individually significant sales.  Due to regulatory changes expected to lower overdraft income and the volatility of investment product sales, these fee income sources may not be a significant driver of net income growth during the remainder of 2010 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2010.

 

Operating expenses, excluding loss on foreclosed assets, increased $730, or 6.9% during the during the nine months ended September 2010 compared to September 2009 primarily from a $618 increase in salaries and employee benefits.  Salaries and employee benefits increased from a variety of factors including inflationary wage increases, overtime associated with a core data processing system conversion, increased year-end incentive costs, increased health insurance expenses, and a decrease in deferred loan origination costs due to lower origination activity compared to 2009.

Since December 31, 2009, commercial related loans have declined $6,845, or 2.0% as borrowers have sought to reduce existing debt levels or forego expansion due to an ongoing weak economy.  To expand our ability to prudently meet local credit needs, we have increased our use of government guaranteed lending programs such as the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”).  Since December 31, 2009, government guaranteed loan principal has increased from $1,471 to $4,112 at September 30, 2010.  Year to date during 2010, we have not sought to replace repaid commercial related principal with purchased participation loans, which have declined $1,219, or 8%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2010.  Ongoing negative general economic conditions continue to have an impact on our borrowers’ desire to increase their debt load and our willingness to lend.  A significant portion of recent borrower loan applications have not met our normal underwriting s tandards, which negatively impacts the level of new loan originations and increases the likelihood of continued use of government guaranteed loan programs in connection with future loan growth.


During 2009, a portion of the $5,614 decline in cash and cash equivalents was deployed in a strategy to maximize investment yields in a falling rate environment while retaining potential liquidity and minimizing market risk.  We invested $2,484 in certificates of deposit issued by other banks offered through a national CD listing service during 2010.  These certificates are insured by the FDIC and carry early withdrawal penalties of no greater than six months of lost interest.  At September 30, 2010, the portfolio yield was 2.19% with an average remaining life to maturity of approximately 52 months.  While the pool could be expanded to up to $5 million, no additional certificates are currently sought.

Core deposits continued to decline during the September 2010 quarter, continuing a trend seen during all of 2010, resulting in a year to date decline in core deposits of $18,613 during the nine months ended September 30, 2010.  However, the decline is directly related to a decline in seasonal governmental unit deposits of $18,450 during the same period.  Governmental deposits levels are elevated at December 31, 2009 due to property tax collections and funds normally run down throughout the year as municipalities use the funds.  A significant portion of these municipal deposits withdrawn from core deposit accounts were retained by us in the CDARS program.  These CDARS deposits are represented in the $7,701 increase in retail certificates of deposit > $100, offsetting approximately 41% of the core deposit decline during the period.


Core deposit changes were positively impacted by growth in our Rewards Checking NOW account, a high yield interest bearing checking account subject to customer account usage requirements to earn the premium interest rate.  As market rates have declined, the premium rate associated with the product has also declined, reducing potential customer interest in the account in an environment with nominally low interest rates.  Effective October 1, 2010, the premium rate on the account was reduced to 2.29% annual percentage yield from 3.01% annual percentage yield (previously effective October 1, 2009).  Reward Checking balances increased $1,289 during the quarter ended September 30, 2010 compared to June 30, 2010, although quarter over quarter growth has slowed significantly.  During the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2009, Rewards Checking deposits grew $12,032 and $17,120, respectively, but have increased just $4,305 during the nine months ended September 2010.  S ince Rewards Checking has been a strong source of core deposit growth since its introduction in June 2007, a decline in Reward Checking growth could require us to develop a new retail product or seek wholesale funding alternatives to fund future loan growth.


During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, wholesale funding including FHLB advances, brokered certificates of deposit, repurchase agreements, and federal funds purchased increased $262, or 0.2% to $164,026 (27.3% of total assets) compared to $163,764 at December 31, 2009 (27.0% of assets).  Growth in our overnight repurchase agreements with local customers (internally classified as “wholesale funding”) has kept total wholesale funding at beginning of year levels despite a decline in loans receivable.  Overnight repurchase accounts have increased $3,379 during the nine months ended September 2010 and are expected to increase further due to acquisition of a large commercial cash management customer during 2010 utilizing this account.  Growth in repurchase accounts can negatively impact our liquidity position as repurchase balance growth requires us to pledge additional U.S. Government agency securities that could be retained for contingency liquidity purpos es.

Loans held for investment continue to consist primarily of commercial related loans, including commercial and industrial and commercial real estate loans, representing 75.3% of total loans at September 30, 2010 compared to 75.9% at December 31, 2009.  We hold only a small portion of construction, land development and other land loans, totaling $31,167 (commercial and residential loans) at September 30, 2010, representing 7.1% of gross loans, down from 8.8% of gross loans at December 31, 2009.  At September 30, 2010, unused commitments to fund real estate construction loans were $2,491.


The loan portfolio is our primary asset subject to credit risk.  Our process for monitoring credit risk includes quarterly analysis of loan quality, delinquencies, nonperforming assets, and potential problem loans.  Loans are placed on a nonaccrual status when they become contractually past due 90 days or more as to interest or principal payments.  All interest accrued but not collected for loans (including applicable impaired loans) that are placed on nonaccrual status or charged off is reversed against interest income.  We apply all payments received on nonaccrual loans to principal until the loan is returned to accrual status.  Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due have been collected and there is reasonable assurance that repayment according to the contractual terms will continue.  Because restructured and nonaccrual loans remain classified as nonperforming loans until the uncertainty surround ing the credit is eliminated, some borrowers continue to make loan payments while maintained on non-accrual status.  


We believe the decline in general credit quality and decline in the general economy in our local markets has stabilized, although the timing and extent of future losses in uncertain.  Foreclosed property is expected to continue to increase during 2010 as we work through ongoing collection and foreclosure actions.  A continued slow local economy impacts the value of collateral and foreclosed assets, potentially increasing losses on foreclosed borrowers and properties during upcoming quarters.


Nonperforming assets include:  (1) loans that are either contractually past due 90 days or more as to interest or principal payments, on a nonaccrual status, or the terms of which have been renegotiated to provide a reduction or deferral of interest or principal (restructured loans), and (2) foreclosed assets.

While nonaccrual loans declined $3,911 to $9,387 at September 30, 2010 compared to $13,298 at December 31, 2009, a significant portion of the reduction is due to loans reclassified as foreclosed assets upon legal completion of the foreclosure, before applicable loan charge offs.  Excluding  foreclosed loan principal and related charge off activity, total nonaccrual loans increased $267, or 2.0% of the beginning of year balance.  Foreclosed assets increased $1,978 (net of $1,029 of foreclosed property basis sold at a loss of $133) to $5,754 at September 30, 2010, compared to $3,776 at December 31, 2009.  Total nonperforming assets were $15,141 at September 30, 2010, and $17,074 at December 31, 2009, a decline of 11%.


Total nonperforming assets as a percentage of total assets was 2.52% at September 30, 2010, compared to 2.64% at June 30, 2010, and 2.81% at December 31, 2009.  At September 30, 2010, all nonperforming assets aggregating $500 or more measured by gross principal outstanding (before specific loan reserves) represented 42% of all nonperforming assets as summarized in the following table.

Including the loans in the previous table, at September 30, 2010, our internal credit grading system identified 22 separate loan relationships totaling $3.9 million against which $2.0 million in specific loan loss reserves were allocated.  At December 31, 2009, our internal credit grading system identified 22 separate loan relationships totaling $10.8 million against which $2.5 million in loan loss reserves were recorded.  Since December 31, 2009, loan principal with specific reserve allocations identified prior to 2010 declined $8,226 from resolution or foreclosure of the loan principal while loan principal with specific reserve allocations first identified during 2010 increased $1,336.


Local loan demand has traditionally met requirements for loan growth, and out of area participation loans that we have purchased represent a very small portion of the total loan portfolio, currently $15,022, or 3.4% of the gross loan portfolio at September 30, 2010 compared to $16,004, or 3.6% of the loan portfolio at December 31, 2009.

Many Wisconsin community banks work together on an informal basis to allow customers with credit needs above an institution’s legal lending limit to be served by their local community bank as the lead bank after selling portions of the loan to other banks.  From time to time, we will purchase an out of area loan originated by another Wisconsin community bank for this purpose.  In addition, we may sell a portion of a large loan credit for one of our customers to these same community banks to accommodate large loan requests.  These informal relationships with Wisconsin community banks make up the majority of our participation purchased loan portfolio.  However, at September 30, 2010, this portfolio also included two loan participations totaling $1.8 million purchased from Bankers’ Bank of Wisconsin secured by development commercial real estate and independent community bank stock, and $422 of purchased loans from Bankers Healthcare Group secured by medical eq uipment to medical practices operating outside of our local market area.  Each of these loan types was performing according to their terms at September 30, 2010.


Until September 30, 2010, we guaranteed repayment of a customer’s interest rate swaps and letter of credit to a correspondent bank in exchange for an underwriting fee and a first mortgage lien on real estate.  The total principal amount we guaranteed totaled $6,365 and $5,924 at June 30, 2010, and December 31, 2009, respectively.  The guarantee liability was carried at cost (equal to the amount of deferred income received), which approximated fair value and totaled $71 and $93 at June 30, 2010, and December 31, 2009, respectively.  The liability had been recognized as income on a pro-rata basis over the life of the letter of credit guarantee as loan interest income, while swap guarantee income was recognized as other noninterest income.  During the September 2010 quarter, the borrower refinanced this obligation with a different lender, relieving us of future guarantee obligations.  We recognized the remaining $64 of guarantee income during the September 201 0 quarter.  Income recognized on the guarantees totaled $93 and $29 during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.


Provision for Loan Losses and Loss of Foreclosed Assets


We determine the adequacy of the provision for loan losses based on past loan loss experience, current economic conditions, and composition of the loan portfolio.  Accordingly, the amount charged to expense is based on management’s evaluation of the loan portfolio.  It is our policy that when available information confirms that specific loans, or portions thereof, including impaired loans, are uncollectible, these amounts are promptly charged off against the allowance.  Our provision for loan losses was $510 in the September 2010 quarter compared to $585 in the most recent June 2010 quarter and $800 in the prior year September 2009 quarter.  During the nine months ended September 30, provision for loan losses was $1,555 and $2,100 during 2010 and 2009, respectively.


Nonperforming loans are reviewed to determine exposure for potential loss within each loan category.  The adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is assessed based on credit quality and other pertinent loan portfolio information.  The adequacy of the allowance and the provision for loan losses is consistent with the composition of the loan portfolio and recent internal credit quality assessments.  Although the level of loan loss provision during the remainder of 2010 is expected to decline slightly from that seen during the nine months ended September 30, 2010, future provisions will be impacted by the actual amount of impaired and other problem loans identified by the internal procedures or regulatory agencies.  In addition, fair value of existing foreclosed assets continue to be reviewed in light of recent local market data and may be subject to a partial write-down of value prior to the end of 2010 if required.

Annualized net loan charge-offs were .16% during the September 2010 quarter compared to .51% during the June 2010 quarter and .45% during the September 2009 quarter.  During the nine months ended September 30, annualized net loan charge-offs were .35% and .25% during 2010, and 2009, respectively.  At September 30, 2010, the allowance for loan losses was $8,001, or 1.82% of total loans compared to $7,611, or 1.71% of total loans at December 31, 2009, and $6,801, or 1.54% of total loans at September 30, 2009.


The majority of gross loan charge-offs during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 totaling $902 were related to five borrowers, with the largest charge-off of $448 related to a nonowner multi-use, multi-tenant commercial real estate development that remains in foreclosed assets at September 30, 2010.  All other 2010 gross loan charge-offs totaled $269.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2009, the majority of gross loan charge-offs totaling $618 were related to five borrowers, with the largest charge-off of $214 related to a land development loan that remains in foreclosed assets at September 30, 2010. All other 2009 gross loan charge-offs totaled $225.


Loss on foreclosed assets was $156 during the September 2010 quarter compared to $151 during the prior year September 2009 quarter.  During the September 2010 quarter, loss on foreclosed assets included $130 of losses from partial write-down of unsold foreclosed properties.  During the September 2009 quarter, loss on foreclosed assets included $125 of costs related to an auction of foreclosed property completed in the December 2009 quarter.  During the nine months ended September 30, loss on foreclosed properties was $305 and $174 during 2010 and 2009, respectively.  Current year to date foreclosure losses are greater than seen during 2009 due to real estate taxes and other holding costs required on a larger portfolio of foreclosed properties and partial write-downs of property basis not incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2009.  


Net Interest Income


Quarter ended September 30, 2010 compared to September 30, 2009


Net interest income is the most significant component of earnings.  Tax adjusted net interest income totaled $5,220 during the September 2010 quarter compared to $4,337 in the September 2009 quarter, an increase of $883, or 20.4%.  During the September 2010 quarter, net interest income was increased from collection of a $100 loan prepayment penalty in connection with a borrower loan refinance.  Excluding this nonrecurring income, tax adjusted net interest income increased 18.1% over the prior September 2009 quarter.  The increase in net interest income is due primarily to increased net margin, which contributed approximately 80% of the increased net interest income ($702) with increased earning asset volume contributing approximately 20% of increased net interest income ($181).


Net interest margin was 3.65% during the September 2010 quarter compared to 3.09% during the September 2009 quarter.  If we continue to experience low levels of loan growth, further increases in net interest margin would be required to see further increases in net interest income.  Conversely, declines in net margin may not be offset by earning asset growth, which would decrease net interest income  and negatively impact net income.  We do not expect to continue to see such large increases in net margin during the coming quarters, but expect margin to stabilize at current levels provided that market rates and the yield curve remain at current levels.


Loan yield during the September 2010 quarter was 5.87% compared to 5.80% during June 2010 and 5.61% during September 2009.  Disregarding the $100 prepayment penalty collected in the September 2010 quarter and the $108 interest payment recorded from repayment of the $1.0 million nonaccrual loan seen during the June 2010 quarter, the September  2010 quarterly loan yield would have been 5.78% compared to the pro-forma June 2010 loan yield of 5.70%.  Yield on investment securities continues to fall, reaching 4.41% in the September 2010 quarter compared to 4.65% during June 2010 and 4.89% % in September 2009.  Because current market security reinvestment yields are generally less than 2.00% for the securities typically held in our portfolio, investment security yields are expected to continue to decline and place pressure on net margin.  However, funding costs also continued to decline, falling to 2.06% during the September 2010 quarter compared to 2.17% in June 2010 and 2.58% in September 2009.


We have increased net interest margin since 2009 by inserting interest rate floors in commercial-related loans and retail residential home equity lines of credit to avoid the negative impacts to net interest margin from a sustained low interest rate environment and to appropriately price for credit risk in the current market.  At September 30, 2010, approximately 93% of our $116 million in adjustable rate loans carried a contractual interest rate floor and, of those loans with floors, approximately 97% carried current loan yields in excess of the normal adjustable rate coupon due to the interest rate floor.  The weighted average amount in which actual loan yields were supported by the “in the money” loan rate floor was approximately 150 basis points on $105 million of adjustable rate loans at September 30, 2010.  If current interest rate levels were assumed to remain the same, the annualized increase to net interest income



-27-





and net interest margin would be approximately $1,576 and .28%, respectively, based on those existing loan floors and total earning assets at September 30, 2010.  During a period of rising short-term interest rates, we expect average funding costs (which are not currently subject to contractual caps on the interest rate) to rise while the yield on loans with interest rate floors would remain the same until those loans’ adjustable rate index caused coupon rates to exceed the loan rate floor.  The speed in which short-term interest rates increase is expected to have a significant impact on net interest income from loans with interest rate floors.  Quickly rising short-term rates would allow adjustable rate loans with floors to reprice to rates higher than the existing floor more quickly, impacting net interest income less adversely than if short-term rates rose slowly or deliberately.  


Nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to September 30, 2009


Year to date tax adjusted net interest income was $14,815 in 2010 compared to $13,028 in 2009, an increase of $1,787, or 13.7%.  As noted previously, $100 of the 2010 increase was from collection of a prepayment penalty, and $108 of the 2010 increase was from repayment of a nonaccrual loan that had made regular payments during the nonaccrual period.  Absent these unusual items, net interest income increased 12.1%.  Excluding the special items, $1,085 (or 69%) of the net interest income increased was from higher net interest margin, and $494 (or 31%) of the increase was from increased earning asset volume.


Year to date net interest margin was 3.50% during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to 3.19% during the same period in 2009 as loan yields have remained stable at 5.77% (5.70% disregarding the special loan fee items) while funding costs have declined .50%.  Net margin has also been negatively impacted by falling investment security yields which were 4.63% and 5.10% during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.


The following Tables 8 and 9 present a schedule of yields and costs for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to the prior year quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2009.

Interest Rate Sensitivity


We incur market risk primarily from interest-rate risk inherent in our lending and deposit taking activities.  Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and rates.  We actively monitor and manage our interest-rate risk exposure.  The measurement of the market risk associated with financial instruments (such as loans and deposits) is meaningful only when all related and offsetting on- and off-balance sheet transactions are aggregated, and the resulting net positions are identified.  Disclosures about the fair value of financial instruments that reflect changes in market prices and rates can be found in Note 11 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.


Our primary objective in managing interest-rate risk is to minimize the adverse impact of changes in interest rates on net interest income and capital, while adjusting the asset-liability structure to obtain the maximum yield-cost spread on that structure.  We rely primarily on our asset-liability structure reflected on the Consolidated Balance Sheets to control interest-rate risk.  In general, longer-term earning assets are funded by shorter-term funding sources allowing us to earn net interest income on both the credit risk taken on assets and the yield curve of market interest rates.  However, a sudden and substantial change in interest rates may adversely impact earnings, to the extent that the interest rates borne by assets and liabilities do not change at the same speed, to the same extent, or on the same basis.  We do not engage in significant trading activities to enhance earnings or for hedging purposes.


Our overall strategy is to coordinate the volume of rate sensitive assets and liabilities to minimize the impact of interest rate movement on the net interest margin.  The following Table 11 represents our earnings sensitivity to changes in interest rates at September 30, 2010.  It is a static indicator which does not reflect various repricing characteristics and may not indicate the sensitivity of net interest income in a changing interest rate environment, particularly during periods when the interest yield curve is flattening or steepening.  The following repricing methodologies should be noted:


1.

Public or government fund MMDA and NOW accounts are considered fully repriced within 60 days.  Higher yielding retail and non-governmental money market and NOW deposit accounts are considered



-31-





fully repriced within 90 days.  Rewards Checking NOW accounts and lower rate money market deposit accounts are considered fully repriced within one year.  Other NOW and savings accounts are considered “core” deposits as they are generally insensitive to interest rate changes.  These core deposits are generally considered to reprice beyond five years.

2.

Nonaccrual loans are considered to reprice beyond 5 years.

3.

Assets and liabilities with contractual calls or prepayment options are repriced according to the likelihood of the call or prepayment being exercised in the current interest rate environment.

4.

Measurements taking into account the impact of rising or falling interest rates are based on a parallel yield curve change that is fully implemented within a 12-month time horizon.

5.

Bank owned life insurance is considered to reprice beyond 5 years.


Table 11 reflects a balanced sensitivity gap position during the next year, with a cumulative negative one-year gap ratio as of September 30, 2010 of 100.0% compared to a negative gap of 87.6% at December 31, 2009.  In general, a current negative gap would be favorable in a falling interest rate environment but unfavorable in a rising rate environment.  However, net interest income is impacted not only by the timing of product repricing, but the extent of the change in pricing which could be severely limited from local competitive pressures.  This factor can result in change to net interest income from changing interest rates different than expected from review of the gap table.

We use financial modeling techniques that measure interest rate risk.  These policies are intended to limit exposure of earnings to risk.  A formal liquidity contingency plan exists that directs management to the least expensive liquidity sources to fund sudden and unanticipated liquidity needs.  We also use various policy measures to assess interest rate risk as described below.


We balance the need for liquidity with the opportunity for increased net interest income available from longer term loans held for investment and securities.  To measure the impact on net interest income from interest rate changes, we model interest rate simulations on a quarterly basis.  Our policy is that projected net interest income over the next 12 months will not be reduced by more than 15% given a change in interest rates of up to 200 basis points.  The following table presents the projected impact to net interest income by certain rate change scenarios and the change to the one year cumulative ratio of rate sensitive assets to rate sensitive liabilities.

To assess whether interest rate sensitivity beyond one year helps mitigate or exacerbate the short-term rate sensitive position, a quarterly measure of core funding utilization is made.  Core funding is defined as liabilities with a maturity in excess of 60 months and stockholders’ equity capital.  Core deposits including DDA, lower yielding NOW, and non-maturity savings accounts (except high yield NOW such as Rewards Checking deposits and money market accounts) are also considered core long-term funding sources.  The core funding utilization ratio is defined as assets that reprice in excess of 60 months divided by core funding.  Our target for the core funding utilization ratio is to remain at 80% or below given the same 200 basis point changes in rates that apply to the guidelines for interest rate risk limits exposure described previously.  Our core funding utilization ratio after a projected 200 basis point increase in rates was 71.9% at September 30, 2 010 compared to 81.6% at December 31, 2009.  In the September 2010 quarter, we entered into a new fixed interest rate swap agreement on $7.5 million in junior subordinated debentures that was scheduled to convert to a floating rate effective September 15, 2010.  Extension of the fixed rate on the $7.5 million liability improved the core funding ratio.


At September 30, 2010, internal interest rate simulations that project interest rate changes that maintain the current shape of the yield curve (often referred to as “parallel yield curve shifts”) estimated relatively small projected changes to future years’ net interest income, even in more extreme periods of interest rate changes such as up 400 basis points during a 24 month period.  However, if interest rates were to increase more quickly than anticipated and if the yield curve flattened at the same time, such as in a “flat up 500 basis point” change occurring during the 12 months following September 30, 2010, net interest income would decline during the first two years of the simulation in amounts ranging from 0.7% to 3.1% of the base simulation’s net interest income ($127 to $604 per year).  When the yield curve flattens, repriced short-term funding cost, such as for terms of 1 year or less increases, while maturing fixed rate balloon lo ans, such as with terms from 3 to 5 years, increase much less.  During flattening periods, assets and liabilities may reprice at the same time but to a much different extent.


Current net interest income sensitivity to a rising and flattening yield curve is lower than that seen at December 31, 2009 when similar “flat up 500 basis point” projections indicated net interest income would decline during the first three years of the simulation in amounts ranging from 5.9% to 8.7% of the base simulation’s net interest income.  The decline in sensitivity is due in part to extension of fixed rate wholesale funding sources, whose average fixed



-33-





rate period was approximately 33 months during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 up from an average of approximately 22 months during the year ended December 31, 2009.  Wholesale funding makes up 27.3% of total assets at September 30, 2010.


At September 30, 2010, the interest rate simulation with the greatest potential negative impact to net interest income was a further decline in rates of 100 basis points followed by a protracted period of low interest rates.  In this situation, loan and security yields continue to decline while funding costs reach effective lows, reducing net interest margin, particularly if average credit spreads were to decline to levels seen prior to 2008.  In the down 100 basis point scenario, net interest income is projected to decline as follows compared to the current “base rate” scenario:

Despite the recent further declines in market interest rates, management does not consider such a protracted low interest rate environment to be likely, but continues to monitor its asset-liability position in light of this potential long-term risk to net interest income levels.


Noninterest Income


Quarter ended September 30, 2010 compared to September 30, 2009


Total noninterest income for the quarter ended September 30, 2010 was $1,463 compared to $1,203 earned during the September 2009 quarter, an increase of $260, or 22%.  The increase was due to $99 of higher deposit service fees from customer overdraft activity and a $143 increase in other income from higher card interchange income and recognition of a $64 loan guarantee fee described previously.  While September 2010 quarterly mortgage banking income of $375 was similar to the $372 seen during September 2009, current quarterly mortgage banking income was 37% higher than the average seen in the prior 2010 quarters and is expected to continue higher during the upcoming December 2010 quarter.  Overdraft fees have increased from release of a new customer program regarding courtesy overdrafts in connection with our core data processing conversion change and association with our overdraft program vendor, Pinnacle.  Increased debit card interchange fee income is driven by Re wards Checking NOW account customer usage of their cards as such usage is a requirement to obtain the premium interest rate on the account.


Effective August 15, 2010, new Federal Reserve regulation concerning overdraft protection programs required consumers to opt in to bank programs to obtain overdraft protection.  Certain payments by consumers who did not opt into the bank’s overdraft program are not paid by the bank, reducing overdraft fee income.  During the September 2010 quarter, service fee income declined $10, or 2% compared to the June 2010 quarter.  PSB expects continued declines in overdraft fee income due to the new regulation during the December 2010 quarter.  In addition, certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform Act are expected to decrease the amount of interchange income PSB collects on debit card and merchant payment activity, although the timing and extent of the reduction cannot yet be reasonably estimated.


Nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to September 30, 2009


During the nine months ended September 30, total noninterest income was $3,851 and $4,013 during 2010 and 2009, respectively, a decline of $162, or 4.0%.  The primary cause of the decline was a $704, or 43%, decline in mortgage banking income from 2009 which saw a dramatic wave of consumer residential mortgage refinancing due to then historically low interest rates.  Mortgage banking income is tied to long-term market rates, particularly the 10 year U.S. Treasury rate and income can be volatile depending on this rate movement and other factors influencing residential home sales.


Offsetting the decline of mortgage banking income during 2010 was an increase in service fees, particularly overdraft income, of $256.  In addition, investment and insurance sales commissions increased $122.  The increase in investment sales commissions was from a small number of high commission sales.  Commission income can be



-34-





volatile and based on customer activity and such elevated levels may not continue in future quarters.  Lastly, debit card interchange income increased $105 year to date over 2009 from customer usage of debit cards in connection with Reward Checking NOW account growth.  All other changes to items of noninterest income were an increase of $59 in 2010 income compared to 2009.


As noted previously, the recently enacted Dodd-Frank financial reform legislation is expected to decrease the amount of interchange income we collect on debit card and merchant payment activity, although the timing and extent of the reduction cannot yet be estimated.  During the nine months ended September 30, card interchange revenue was $554 and $449 during 2010 and 2009, respectively.


Noninterest Expense


Quarter ended September 30, 2010 compared to September 30, 2009


Noninterest expenses totaled $3,979 during the September 2010 quarter compared to $3,553 during the prior September 2009 quarter, an increase of $426, or 12.0%.  Higher salaries and employee benefits led the increase, growing $300, while data processing expense grew $111 and other noninterest expense increased $72.  Increased base salaries and wages accounted for just $18 of the salaries and benefits increase, which was primarily impacted by $163 greater health insurance expense under PSB’s self-insured benefit plan.  Also during the quarter, accrual for estimated year-end and other incentive plans increased approximately $22, and $43 fewer direct loan origination costs were deferred as commercial loan originations declined compared to 2009.  All other quarterly increases to salaries and wages during 2010 compared to 2009 totaled $54.  Data processing expenses increased due to new costs associated with the outsourced core data processing system installed du ring the June 2010 quarter compared to costs incurred under the previous in-house processing system.  


Other noninterest expense increased from higher debit card and DDA overdraft losses in the September 2010 quarter compared to the September 2009 quarter.  While overdraft service charge income increased due to an expansion of the courtesy overdraft program as discussed previously, charge-off of uncollected DDA balances has also increased compared to prior quarters.  In addition debit card losses have increased as fraudulent activity against our customers’ accounts through fraudulent debit card transactions has increased.  In past years, we have experienced relatively low levels of fraud related to customer debit card accounts.  During the December 2010 quarter, a significant debit card fraud was initiated against our customer base through usage of fake debit cards using information obtained from a third party card processor. Net of expected debit card insurance loss reimbursement, debit card losses could reach $175 during the December 2010 quarter compared to av erage quarterly loss levels of $8 in prior quarters during 2010.  While we do not expect such large quarterly losses to recur in the near term, feedback from our data processor and other banks similar in size and operation to us has indicated this is a widespread and growing problem.  We seek to utilize fraud management tools provided by Jack Henry and Associates, our third party data processor, and the ability to block certain debit card transaction types or in certain states to minimize fraud loses while keeping customer card usage limitations to a minimum.


FDIC insurance expense declined $89 during the September 2010 quarter compared to the prior year quarter due to a change in estimated amortization of the prepaid FDIC insurance assessment of $2.5 million paid in December 2009.  The change now recognizes amortization of the prepaid assessment as incurred rather than using a straight-line method through December 2012 as previously calculated through June 2010.  This change in estimate lowered FDIC expense by approximately $102 during the September 2010 quarter but had no impact on 2010 year to date results.  


Nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to September 30, 2009


Year to date through September 30, 2010, total noninterest expense was $11,620 compared to $10,759 in 2009, an increase of $861, or 8.0%.  The majority of the increase was in employee salaries and benefits, which increased $618, or 10.8%.  Base salaries and wages represented $99 of the increase, growing 2.2% over 2009.  Overtime and other benefit pay related to the June 2010 quarter core processing system conversion accounted for approximately $75, of the increase.  Other factors included fewer deferred direct loan origination costs of $154, increased health and dental insurance plan expense of $99, up 15% over the prior year, and higher year-end incentive and profit sharing plan costs of $64 based on projected 2010 income and sales results.  All other increases to salaries and employee benefits totaled $127 during 2010 compared to 2009.


For the year to date period ended September 30, 2010, FDIC expense decreased $211 compared to 2009 from $801 in 2009 to $590 in 2010.  However, the prior June 2009 quarter included a special FDIC insurance assessment



-35-





totaling $264.  Prior to the special assessment, 2010 FDIC insurance expense increased $53, or 10%.  Recent proposed FDIC regulation in response to Dodd-Frank reform would calculate future FDIC insurance assessments based on net assets after deducting tangible capital beginning with the April 1, 2011 assessment period.  Such a change moves a greater portion of the industry’s aggregate FDIC insurance assessment to larger banks, which typically fund a greater portion of their operations with sources other than deposits.  This change is expected to lower our 2011 FDIC insurance expense compared to levels seen during 2010 and 2009.


During October 2009, we entered into an agreement for data processing services with Jack Henry & Associates, Inc.  The agreement followed a decision by our Board of Directors to outsource the central data processing services required by the Bank.  Jack Henry and its affiliates will provide us with offsite core processing and item processing services (including debit card and electronic payments), and teller and new deposit account operating platforms, plus data storage services and disaster recovery services, and will also supply the related software programs required by us.  The agreement is expected to result in expanded service and product offerings, greater control over fraud identification and risk mitigation, improved customer contact and sales management capabilities, and both near-term and long-term cost savings due to certain reductions in personnel and other operational efficiencies.


We will pay Jack Henry estimated average monthly processing and maintenance fees of $55 during the term of the agreement based on the Bank’s current number of customer accounts.  Monthly processing fees under the contract are determined by the number of accounts maintained on the system and therefore monthly fees are expected to change over time.  The agreement will remain in effect for nine years, with extensions thereafter at our option.  In addition, we paid Jack Henry one time initial license and installation fees totaling approximately $452, which will be amortized to expense over the term of the agreement. In connection with the new software installation, we also paid approximately $65 in conversion fees to our prior in-house data system software provider, Fiserv’s Precision Vision, which we capitalized as installation costs to be amortized over the term of the new agreement.


Jack Henry’s monthly processing fees during the initial period of implementation are very low to allow for recognition of other elevated conversion costs during 2010.  During 2011, processing fees are expected to increase significantly as we pay the contract’s standard processing fees.  Although we expect to realize lower software amortization and depreciation expense compared to our prior in-house system with Fiserv, we expect annualized monthly data processing fees paid to Jack Henry to increase from $96 during the initial implementation period during 2010 (on a proforma basis assuming a full year of service) to approximately $435 during 2011 and $549 during 2012.  As noted previously, monthly processing fees under the contract are determined by the number of customer accounts maintained on the system and therefore monthly fees are expected to change over time.


LIQUIDITY


Liquidity refers to the ability to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet our need for cash at a reasonable cost.  We manage our liquidity to provide adequate funds to support borrowing needs and deposit flow of our customers.  We also view liquidity as the ability to raise cash at a reasonable cost or with a minimum of loss and as a measure of balance sheet flexibility to react to marketplace, regulatory, and competitive changes.  Retail and local deposits are the primary source of funding.  Retail and local deposits were 61.7% of total assets at September 30, 2010, compared to 62.9% of total assets at December 31, 2009.  During 2010, retail and local deposits declined due to declines in local municipal deposits as described previously under Results of Operations.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, interest-bearing demand and savings deposits and money market deposits classified as core deposits declined $18,450 from municipal deposit outflows, which was offset $4,305 from an increase in Reward Checking interest-bearing demand accounts.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2010 we also saw a decline in non-interest bearing demand deposits but an increase in higher yielding NOW accounts besides Rewards Checking.  All other net decreases in core deposits totaled $4,468 primarily from a decline in retail time deposits less than $100.  We continue to experience ongoing retail time deposit quarterly run-off that began during the March 2009 quarter as wholesale funding rates for various funding types began to be lower than local retail certificates.  In addition, certificate balances have been replaced by higher money market and interest bearing demand account balances such as Rewards Checking as customer have m oved certificate funds into liquid, short-term deposit vehicles as certificate rates locally have moved to very low levels.


A significant portion of the decline in municipal deposits reflected in core deposits was simply a reclassification of these deposits into retail time deposits $100 and over within our CDARS program.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, CDARS deposits have increased  $11,673 with the majority of this growth coming from municipal deposits.  We originate retail certificates of deposit with local depositors under the CDARS program, in which our customer deposits (with participation of other banks in the CDARS network) are able to obtain levels of FDIC deposit insurance coverage in amounts greater than traditional limits.  For purposes of the Period-end Deposit Composition Table above, these certificates are included in retail time deposits $100 and over and totaled $23,786 at September 30, 2010 compared to $12,113 at December 31, 2009.  Although classified as retail time deposits $100 and over in the table above, we are required to report these balance s as broker deposits on our quarterly regulatory call reports.  


Our high yield retail interest bearing demand account, Rewards Checking, continues to grow in balances and held $44,503, in deposits at September 30, 2010 compared to $40,198 at December 31, 2009.  However, the pace of growth has slowed significantly compared to previous years as discussed previously.  Peoples Rewards Checking pays a premium interest rate and reimbursement of ATM fees to depositors who meet account usage requirements including minimum debit card purchases, acceptance of electronic account statements, and direct deposit activity.  The average interest cost of Reward Checking balances (excluding debit card interchange fee income, savings from delivery of electronic periodic statements, customer reimbursement of ATM fees, and vendor software costs of maintaining the program) was 2.21% and 3.01% during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  Effective October 1, 2010, the premium rate available in the Reward Checking product was lowered and the average interest cost under the new rate is expected to approximate 1.82% in future quarters following the change.


Wholesale funding generally carries higher interest rates than local core deposit funding, so loan growth supported by wholesale funds often generates lower net interest spreads than loan growth supported by local funds.  However, wholesale funds provide us the ability to quickly raise large funding blocks and to match loan terms to minimize interest rate risk and avoid the higher incremental cost to existing deposits from simply increasing retail rates to raise local deposits.  Rates paid on local deposits are significantly impacted by competitor interest rates and the local economy’s ability to grow in a way that supports the deposit needs of all local financial institutions.



-37-






Current brokered certificate of deposit rates available to us are less costly than equivalent local deposits as national wholesale funds place a premium on FDIC insurance available on their large deposit when placed with brokers in amounts less than current FDIC insurance limits.  Due to large demand through brokers for these types of deposits, brokered deposit rates for well performing banks are historically low.  In addition, declines in profitability and capital at some banks have reduced their access to wholesale funding or otherwise increased its cost.  In many cases, these institutions with reduced wholesale funding access have increased their retail interest rates to gather funds through local depositors.  Consequently, local certificate of deposit rates in many markets are priced higher than equivalent wholesale brokered deposits due to a limited supply of retail deposits.  We expect this difference in pricing between wholesale and local certificates of deposit to be removed by the wholesale funding market as the banking industry becomes well capitalized and regains consistent profits.  The impact of an improving national economy will likely be an increase in wholesale rates relative to local core deposit rates that could increase the volatility of our interest expense due to a significant portion of our funding coming from wholesale sources.


Our internal policy is to limit broker and national time (not including CDARS) deposits to 20% of total assets.  Broker and national deposits as a percentage of total assets were 13.6%, 12.7%, and 14.5% at September 30, 2010, December 31, 2009, and September 30, 2009, respectively.  Brokered deposits increased $4,608 during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to 2009 to refinance a maturing $7 million repurchase agreement.  Due to borrowing capacity at the FHLB from pay down of prior advances, we expect a mix of brokered deposits and new FHLB advances to provide wholesale funding if needed during the coming quarters.  Beyond these traditional sources of wholesale funding, secondary wholesale sources include Federal Reserve Discount Window advances and pledging of investment securities against repurchase agreements.  However, due to excess liquidity and expected low levels loan growth during the December 2010 quarter, we do not expect to utilize inc reased brokered deposits or FHLB advances during the remainder of 2010.

As discussed previously, during 2010 we invested in $2,484 of certificates of deposit issued by other banks with fixed rates that carried original terms generally in excess of 48 months.  These certificates may be withdrawn subject to early withdrawal penalties of up to six months of lost interest. Although the certificates are FDIC insured, there is no guarantee the issuing bank will be willing or able to permit early withdrawal even subject to the penalty, although such prohibition would be very unusual within the banking industry.


The interest rate swap contract used to fix interest payments required on junior subordinated debentures as previously discussed requires us to post cash or investment security collateral against our fair value liability in favor of the counterparty.  At September 30, 2010, the fair value liability of the swap was $363, and we have posted cash collateral against the swap fair value and for required “independent amount” compensating balances totaling $410 which are classified as cash and cash equivalents on the Balance Sheet.  If interest rate swap terms similar to our seven year commitment were to move lower, we would be required to post further collateral.  Such collateral is posted by our holding company, which has limited liquidity sources outside of dividends and advances from the bank.  We do not expect to be required to post significant further collateral against the swap contract.

We regularly maintain access to wholesale markets to fund loan originations and manage local depositor needs.  At September 30, 2010, unused (but available) wholesale funding was approximately $175,803, or 29% of total assets, compared to $187,744, or 31% of total assets at December 31, 2009.  Certain municipal securities held in our investment portfolio may also be available for pledging as collateral against repurchase agreements and FHLB advances under conditions dictated by the lender.  However, due to the difficulty and uncertainty of the amount ultimately available as collateral, unpledged municipal securities are not considered available for funding in our internal analysis of liquidity flexibility or in the figures reported as unused but available wholesale funding above.  Our ability to borrow funds on a short-term basis from the Federal Reserve Discount Window is an important part of our liquidity analysis.  Although we had no Discount Window amounts o utstanding, approximately 44% of unused but available liquidity at September 30, 2010 was represented by available Discount Window advances compared to 40% of available liquidity at December 31, 2009.


As part of our formal quarterly asset-liability management projections, we also measure basic surplus as the amount of existing net liquid assets (after deducting short-term liabilities and coverage for anticipated deposit funding outflows during the next 30 days) divided by total assets.  The basic surplus calculation does not consider unused but available correspondent bank federal funds purchased, as those funds are subject to availability based on the correspondent bank’s own liquidity needs and therefore are not guaranteed contractual funds.  However, basic surplus does include unused but available FHLB advances under the open line of credit supported by a blanket lien on mortgage collateral.  Basic surplus does not include available brokered certificate of deposit funding as those funds generally may not be obtained within one business day following the request for funding.  Our policy is to maintain a basic surplus of at least 5%.  Basic surplus was 6.2% and 5.6% at September 30, 2010, and December 31, 2009, respectively.


The following discussion examines each of the available but unused funding sources listed in Table 16 above and the factors that may directly or indirectly influence the timing or the amount ultimately available to us.


Overnight federal funds purchased


Our aggregate federal funds purchase availability of $25,500 is from three correspondent banks.  The most significant portion of the total is $12,500 from our primary correspondent bank, Bankers’ Bank located in Madison, Wisconsin.  We make regular use of the Bankers’ Bank line as part of our normal daily cash settlement procedures, but rarely have used the lines offered by the other two correspondent banks.  Federal funds must be repaid each day and borrowings may be renewed for up to 14 consecutive business days.  To unilaterally draw on the exiting federal funds line, we need to maintain a “composite ratio” as defined by Bankers’ Bank of 40% or less.  Bankers’ Bank defines the composite ratio to be nonperforming assets divided by capital including the allowance for loan losses calculated at our subsidiary bank level.  Due to existence of the composite ratio, an increase in nonperforming loans could impact availability of the line or subject us to further review.  In addition, a rising composite ratio could cause our other two correspondent banks to reconsider their federal funds line with us since they do not also serve as our primary correspondent bank.  At September 30, 2010, our subsidiary bank’s composite ratio was approximately 22% and less than the 40% benchmark used by Bankers’ Bank.

Federal Reserve discount window advances


We have a $100,000 line of credit with the Federal Reserve Discount Window supported by both commercial and commercial real estate collateral provided to the Federal Reserve under their Borrower in Custody (“BIC”) program.  Under the BIC program, we provide a monthly listing of detailed loan information on the loans provided as collateral.  We are subject to annual review and certification by the Federal Reserve to retain participation in the program.  The Discount Window represents the primary source of liquidity on a daily basis following our federal funds purchased lines of credit discussed above.  In general, Discount Window advances must be repaid or renewed each day.


Only performing loans are permitted as collateral under the BIC and each individual loan is subject to a haircut to collateral value based on the Federal Reserve’s review of the listing each month.  In general, 55% to 60% of the loan principal offered as collateral is able to support Discount Window advances.  Similar to the federal funds purchased lines of credit, an increase in nonperforming loans would decrease the amount of collateral available for Discount Window advances.  


Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) advances under blanket mortgage lien and other FHLB advances


We maintain a line of credit availability with the FHLB based on a pledge of 1 to 4 family mortgage loan collateral, both first and secondary lien positions.  We may borrow on the line to the lesser of the blanket mortgage lien collateral provided, or 20 times our existing FHLB capital stock investment.  Based on the our existing $3,250 capital stock investment,  total FHLB advances in excess of $65,000 require us to purchase additional FHLB stock equal to 5% of the advance amount.  At September 30, 2010, we could have drawn an FHLB advance up to $7,566 of the $12,800 available without the purchase of FHLB stock.  Further advances of the remaining $5,234 available would have required us to purchase additional FHLB stock totaling $262.  The FHLB currently pays no dividends on its stock and has informed its shareholders that no dividends should be expected during 2010.  Therefore, additional FHLB advances carry additional cost relative to other wholesale borrowing alternatives due to the requirement to hold non-earning FHLB stock.


Similar to the Discount Window, only performing residential mortgage loans may be pledged to the FHLB under the blanket lien. In addition, we are subject to a haircut of approximately 36% on first mortgage collateral and 50% on secondary lien collateral at September 30, 2010.  Effective December 31, 2010, the haircut on secondary lien collateral goes to 60%, reducing our borrowing capacity by approximately $3.4 million.  The FHLB also conducts annual audits of collateral identification and submission procedures and adjusts the collateral haircuts higher in response to negative exam findings.  The FHLB also assigns a credit risk grade to each member based on a quarterly review of the member’s regulatory CALL report.  Our current credit risk is within the normal range for a healthy member bank.  Negative financial performance trends such as reduced capital levels, increased nonperforming assets, net losses,  and other factors can increase a member’s credit risk grade.  Higher risk grades can require a member to provide detailed loan collateral listings (rather than a blanket lien), physical collateral, and other restrictions on the maximum line usage.   FHLB advances are available on a daily basis and along with Discount Window advances represent a primary source of liquidity following our federal funds purchased lines of credit.


Repurchase agreements and FHLB advances collateralized by investment securities


Wholesale repurchase agreements may be available from a correspondent bank counterparty for both overnight and longer terms.  Such arrangements typically call for the agreement to be collateralized by us at 110% of the repurchase principal.  In the current market, repurchase counterparty providers are extremely limited and would likely require a minimum $10 million transaction.  Repurchase agreements could require up to several business days to receive funding.  Due to the lack of availability of counterparties offering the product, wholesale repurchase agreements are not a reliable source of liquidity.  At September 30, 2010, $13.5 million of our repurchase agreements are wholesale agreements with correspondent banks and $11.3 million are overnight repurchase agreements with local customer utilizing our treasury monument services.


In addition to availability of FHLB advances under the blanket mortgage lien, we also have the ability to pledge investment securities as collateral against FHLB advances.  Advances secured by investments are also subject to the FHLB stock ownership requirement as described previously.  Due to the need to purchase additional FHLB member stock, FHLB advances secured by investments are not considered a primary source of liquidity.  At September 30,



-40-





2010, $21,249 of additional FHLB advances were available based on pledging of securities if an additional $1,062 of member capital stock were purchased.


Wholesale market deposits


Due to the strength of our capital position, balance sheet, and ongoing earnings, we enjoy the lowest possible costs when purchasing wholesale certificates of deposit on the brokered market.  We have an internal policy that limits use of brokered deposits to 20% of total assets , which gave availability of $38,244 at September 30, 2010.  Participants in the brokered certificate market must be considered “well capitalized” under current regulatory capital standards to acquire brokered deposits without approval of their primary federal regulator.  We regularly acquire brokered deposits from three market providers and maintain relationships with other providers to obtain required funds at the lowest possible cost.  Ten business days are typically required between the request for brokered funding and settlement.  Therefore, brokered deposits are a reliable, but not daily, source of liquidity.  Brokered deposits represent our largest source of wholesal e funding and we would see significant negative impacts if capital levels or earnings were to decline to levels not considered to be well capitalized.  In addition to the requirement to be considered well-capitalized, banks under regulatory consent orders are not permitted to participate in the brokered deposit market without approval of their primary federal regulator even if they maintain a well-capitalized capital classification.


Holding company unsecured line of credit


We maintain a $1,000 line of credit with a correspondent bank as a contingency liquidity source.  No amounts were drawn on the line at September 30, 2010 or December 31, 2009.  Although our bank subsidiary has in the past provided the holding company’s liquidity needs through semi-annual upstream dividends of profits, losses or other negative performance trends could prevent the bank form providing these dividends as cash flow.  Because our bank holding company has approximately $892 of financing obligations per year as well as approximately $150 of other expenses, the holding company line of credit is a critical source of potential liquidity.  


We are subject to financial covenants associated with the line that require our bank subsidiary to:


·

Be considered “well capitalized” at all times.

·

Maintain nonperforming assets as a percentage of equity plus the allowance for loan losses to less than 30%.

·

Maintain loan loss reserves no less than 55% of nonperforming loans.

·

Maintain total risk based capital ratio of at least 11.75%


At September 30, 2010, we were not in violation of any of the line of credit covenants.  A violation of any covenant could prevent us from utilizing the unused balance of the line of credit.


CAPITAL RESOURCES


Stockholders’ equity increased $3,774 to $46,044 during the nine months ended September 30, 2010.  The increase was driven by retained year to date net income of $2,855 (net of $565 in dividends declared) and an increase in unrealized gain on securities available for sale of $1,110.  Net book value of $29.43 per share at September 30, 2010 increased 6.6% from net book value per share of $27.60 at September 30, 2009 and 8.6% from net book value of $27.11 per share at December 31, 2009.  Unrealized gains in securities available for sale reflected as accumulated other comprehensive income represented approximately $1.84, or 6.3% of total net book value at September 30, 2010, up from $1.14, or 4.2% of total net book value at December 31, 2009.  The decline in market interest rates since September 30, 2008 has increased the fair value of the fixed rate debt securities held in our investment portfolio, which is recorded as an increase to equity.  If market rates were to increase in the future, existing unrealized gains on our fixed rate investment portfolio would decline, negatively influencing net book value per share.


During October 2010, we transferred our portfolio of taxable and tax-exempt municipal investment securities from the available for sale classification to the held to maturity classification.  The transfer was made to lessen the potential volatility to equity and net book value from declining market values of long term fixed rate securities such as municipal investments in a rising rate environment.  The unrealized gain on $51,578  in net book value of securities transferred was $2,552 ($1,547 after income tax effects) at the October 1, 2010 transfer date.  The unrealized gain will be amortized as a reduction to stockholders’ equity and reduction to net book value over the



-41-





remaining life of the securities with 50% of the unrealized gain to be amortized by the quarter ended March 31, 2013.  Securities classified as held to maturity may not be sold without causing all remaining securities to be reclassified as available for sale and all unrealized gains and losses again recorded in equity through accumulated other comprehensive income.  Our securities portfolio is used for pledging against municipal deposits and other adequate sources of liquidity are available giving us the ability and intent to hold these securities until maturity.


During the March 2010 quarter, we issued 4,983 shares of restricted stock having a grant date value of $75 to certain key employees as a retention tool and to align employee performance with shareholder interests.  The shares vest over the service period using a straight-line method and unvested shares are forfeited if, prior to vesting, the employee is no longer employed with the Bank.  Refer to Footnote 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on the restricted shares.


No shares were repurchased by us during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 or 2009 as we sought to conserve capital for growth and increased regulatory capital ratios.  Industry wide, the cost of capital has increased significantly compared to prior years and many sources of previously low cost capital such as pooled trust preferred offerings have been closed.  The banking industry continues to place a premium on capital and we expect to refrain from significant treasury stock repurchases during the remainder of 2010.


The adequacy of our capital is regularly reviewed to ensure sufficient capital is available for current and future needs and is in compliance with regulatory guidelines.  As of September 30, 2010, and December 31, 2009, the Bank’s Tier 1 risk-weighted capital ratio, total risk-weighted capital, and Tier 1 leverage ratio were in excess of regulatory minimums and were classified as “well-capitalized.”  Failure to remain well-capitalized could prevent us from obtaining future whole sale brokered time deposits which are an important source of funding.  Average common stockholders’ equity (excluding accumulated other comprehensive income such as the unrealized gains on securities available for sale discussed previously) to average assets was 7.11% during the September 2010 quarter, 7.03% during the most recent June 2010 quarter, and 6.89% during the September 2009 quarter.


During the June 2010 quarter, total risk weighted assets declined approximately $16 million from recognition of approximately $32 million of five or more family real estate mortgage loans as subject to 50% risk weighting, rather than the 100% risk weighting incorrectly assigned in prior quarters.  This change increased the total capital to risk weighted assets ratio by approximately .42% at June 30, 2010.  During the September 2010 quarter, we were relieved of a guarantee liability on customer debt to a correspondent bank described previously which reduced risk weighted assets by $5,924 compared to December 31, 2009.  These changes, along with continued retention of 2010 net income have increased the total capital ratio from 12.49% at December 31, 2009 to 13.94% at September 2010.

As a measurement of the adequacy of a bank’s capital base related to its level of nonperforming assets, many investors use a “non-GAAP” measure commonly referred to as the “Texas Ratio.”  We also track changes in our Texas Ratio against our internal capital and liquidity risk parameters to highlight negative capital trends that could impact our ability for future growth, payment of dividends to shareholders, or other factors.  As noted previously, correspondent bank providers of our daily federal funds purchased line of credit and the holding company operating line of credit use similar measures that impact our ability to continued use of those lines of credit if our level of nonperforming assets to capital were to rise above prescribed levels.  The following table presents the calculation of our Texas Ratio.

OFF BALANCE-SHEET COMMITMENTS AND CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS


As a FHLB Mortgage Partnership Finance (“MPF”) loan servicer, we provide a credit enhancement guarantee to reimburse the FHLB for foreclosure losses in excess of 1% of the original loan principal for certain loans sold to the FHLB on an aggregate pool basis.  The following tables summarize loan principal serviced for the FHLB under various MPF programs and for FNMA as of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009.


Losses incurred by the FHLB on loans in the MPF 100 program and the MPF 125 program are absorbed by the FHLB in their First Loss Account.  If cumulative losses were to exceed the First Loss Account, we would reimburse the FHLB for any excess losses up to the extent of our Credit Enhancement Guarantee.  Ten years after the original pool master commitment date, the First Loss Account and the Credit Enhancement Guarantee are reset to current levels based on loans remaining in the pool.  These factors are further reset every subsequent five years until the pool is repaid.


Since inception of our pools containing guarantees to the FHLB in 2000, only $0.2 million of $425 million of loans originated with guarantees have incurred a principal loss, all of which has been borne by the FHLB within their First Loss Account.  No loans have been sold by us to the FHLB with our credit enhancement guarantee of principal since October 2008 and we do not intend to originate future loans with the guarantee.


All loans sold to FHLB or FNMA in which we retain the loan servicing are subject to underwriting representations and warranties made by us as the originator and we are subject to annual underwriting audits from both entities.  Our representations and warranties would allow FHLB or FNMA to require us to repurchase inadequately originated loans for any number of underwriting violations.  We have originated loans to these secondary market providers since 2000 and have never been required to repurchase a loan for underwriting or servicing violations and do not expected to be required to repurchase loans in the near term.

We have ceased originating loans under the MPF 100 and MPF 125 programs.  All FHLB originations are now through the FHLB XTRA closed loan program which do not include our credit enhancement.  Due to historical strength of mortgage borrowers in our markets, the original 1% of principal loss pool provided by the FHLB, and current economic conditions in our markets, management believes the possibility of losses under guarantees to the FHLB to be remote.  Accordingly, we have made no provision for a recourse liability related to this recourse obligation on loans we currently service.  Under the MPF 100 and MPF 125 credit enhancement programs, the FHLB is reimbursed for any incurred principal losses in its First Loss Account by withholding the monthly credit enhancement fee normally paid to us until their principal loss is recovered.  We recognize credit enhancement income on a cash basis when received monthly from the FHLB.


Under the XTRA program, loan principal is sold to the FHLB in exchange for a fee while we retain servicing rights to the loan.  We are paid an annualized fee of 25 basis points for servicing future payments on the loan.  We provide no credit enhancement on the loan to the FHLB and are paid no credit enhancement fees.  The FHLB has no recourse to us for their realized future principal losses under the XTRA program.  As loan principal is repaid by customers on loans in the discontinued MPF 100 and MPF 125 programs, credit enhancement fees (approximately 7 to 10 basis points of principal per year on a loan level basis) will decline, reducing our mortgage banking income in future periods.  Credit enhancement fee income was $24 and $89 during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

There has been no material change in the information provided in response to Item 7A of PSB’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.


Item 4.  Controls and Procedures


As of the end of the period covered by this report, management, under the supervision, and with the participation, of our President and Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15.  Based upon, and as of the date of such evaluation, the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1A.  Risk Factors


In addition to the other information set forth in this report, this report should be considered in light of the risk factors referenced in Part I of PSB’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, under the caption “Forward-Looking Statements.”  These and other risk factors could materially affect PSB’s business, financial condition, or future results of operations.  The risks referenced in PSB’s Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing PSB.  Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to PSB or that it currently deems to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect PSB’s business, financial condition, and/or operating results.
