Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

Mortgage-backed securities are allocated according to their expected prepayments rather than their contractual maturities. Certain state and local governments' securities are allocated according to their put date. Fair values of securities are estimated based on financial models or prices paid for similar securities. It is possible interest rates could change considerably resulting in a material change in the estimated fair value.

At March 31, 2011, twenty seven debt securities have unrealized losses with aggregate depreciation of 9.5% from DSB's amortized cost basis. Information pertaining to securities with gross unrealized losses aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous loss position follows:

All securities with unrealized losses are assessed to determine if the impairment is other-than-temporary. Factors that are evaluated include the mortgage loan types supporting the securities, delinquency and foreclosure rates, credit support, weighted average loan-to-value, and year of origination, among others.

Currently, a quarterly analysis by a third party is performed on three residential mortgage-backed securities secured by non-traditional loan types in order to determine whether they are other-than-temporarily impaired ("OTTI"). The purpose of the third party evaluation is to determine if the present value of the expected cash flows is less than the amortized costs, thereby resulting in credit loss, in accordance with the authoritative accounting guidance under FASB ASC Topic 320. The third party determines an estimated fair value for each security based on discounted cash flow analyses. The estimates are based on the following key valuation assumptions - collateral cash flows, prepayment assumptions, default rates, loss severity, liquidation lag, bond waterfall and internal rate of return. Since there is currently no active secondary market for these types of securities, due to the non-traditional loan types supporting the securities, these valuations are considered Level 3 inputs as defined below in Note 5 - Fair Value Measurement. Additional securities may be analyzed in the future if deemed necessary to determine whether they are OTTI and if so, if any possible credit loss exists.

Two of the three securities supported by non-traditional loan types were found to have credit losses during an analysis as of March 31, 2009 since a portion of the unrealized losses is due to an expected cash flow shortfall. As such, these securities were determined to be other-than-temporarily impaired. DBI does not intend to sell the investments and it is not more likely than not that DBI will be required to sell the securities before the anticipated recovery of their remaining amortized cost bases, which may be maturity. The total credit loss that was recognized in earnings as of March 31, 2009 for these securities was $0.3 million. The analysis on the third security did not reveal any credit loss nor was the security found to be OTTI. Based on the analyses performed in 2010, there was an additional $0.1 million of credit loss recognized on one of the two OTTI securities. The analysis performed as of March 31, 2011 resulted in an additional $24,474 of credit loss on this security that was recorded through the income statement during the current period. Unrealized losses on the three securities analyzed by the third party were recognized through accumulated other comprehensive loss on the balance sheet as of March 31, 2011, net of tax, in the amount of $1.0 million.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

The unrealized losses on the remainder of the residential mortgage-backed securities are due to the distressed and illiquid markets for collateralized mortgage obligations. The securities are investments in senior tranches with adequate credit support from subordinate tranches, are supported by traditional mortgage loans that originated between 2002 and 2005, have low delinquency and foreclosure rates, and reasonable loan-to-value ratios. DBI does not consider these investments to be OTTI at March 31, 2011.

Changes in credit losses recognized for securities with OTTI were as follows:

NOTE 3 - LOANS

Loans are reported at the principal amount outstanding, net of the allowance for credit losses. Interest on loans is calculated and accrued by using the simple interest method on the daily balance of the principal amount outstanding. Loan origination fees are credited to income when received and the related loan origination costs are expensed as incurred. Capitalization of the fees net of the related costs would not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

DBI's customer information system tracks the past due status of all loans beginning with the first day a payment is late. On a weekly basis, lenders are given a report with all loans past due one day or more to allow them to actively monitor the portfolio and attempt to keep past due levels to a minimum.

All loans are given an internal risk rating when the loan is originated. On a quarterly basis, risk rating reports are distributed to the lenders to ensure that loans are appropriately rated. On an annual basis, all commercial loans over $100,000 and agricultural loans over $200,000 are reviewed by the loan officer and/or credit analyst. All loans over $1 million are independently reviewed annually by the Chief Credit Officer. An independent third party also performs periodic reviews of risk ratings to ensure that loans are accurately graded. The internal risk ratings are defined as:

  • Non-classified loans are assigned a risk rating of 1 - 4 with a one-rated credit being the highest quality. Non-classified loans have credit quality that ranges from well above average quality to some inherent industry weaknesses that may present higher than average risk due to conditions affecting the borrower, the borrower's industry or economic environment.
  • Special mention loans are assigned a risk rating of 5. Potential weaknesses exist that deserve management's close attention. If left uncorrected, the potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of repayment prospects or in the bank's credit position at some future date.
  • Substandard loans are internally assigned a rating of 6. These loans are inadequately protected by the current worth and paying capacity of the borrower. Well-defined weaknesses exist that may jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. There is a possibility of some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. At this point, the loan may still be performing and accruing.
  • Doubtful loans are rated 7 and have all the weaknesses of a substandard credit plus the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full on the basis of current facts, conditions and values highly questionable and improbable. The possibility of loss is extremely high but because of certain important and reasonable specific pending factors, which may work to the advantage of strengthening the asset, its classification as an estimated loss is deferred until its more exact status can be determined.
  • Loss loans are rated internally as an 8. A loss amount has been determined and this has been charged-off against the allowance for loan losses. All or a portion of the charge-off may be recovered in the future and any such recoveries would also be recorded through the allowance.

DBI's policy is to place into nonaccrual status all loans that are contractually past due 90 days or more, along with all other loans as to which reasonable doubt exists to the full and timely collection of principal and/or interest based on management's view of the financial condition of the borrower. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual, all interest previously accrued but not collected is reversed against current period interest income. Income on such loans is then recognized only to the extent that cash is received and where the future collection of principal is probable. Interest accruals are resumed on such loans only when they are brought fully current with respect to interest and principal and when, in the judgment of management, the loans are estimated to be fully collectible as to both principal and interest.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

Loan charge-offs for all loans will occur as soon as there is a reasonable probability of loss. When the amount of the loss can be readily calculated, the charge-off will be recorded as soon as practical within the quarter the loss was identified. Loans that are partially charged-off will be placed in non-accrual status unless the remaining loan is restructured with adequate collateral and payments are assured and current.

A loan is impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that not all amounts due will be collected according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Interest income is recognized in the same manner described above for nonaccrual loans. Further detail on the analysis of impaired loans can be found below in the discussion of the Allowance for Loan Losses.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is an estimate of the losses that may be sustained in the loan portfolio. The allowance is based on two basic accounting principles: (1) FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 310-10 "Receivables - Overall," (formally FAS 114) which requires that losses be accrued when it is probable that DBI will not collect all principal and interest payments according to the loan's contractual terms, and, (2) ASC Topic 450, "Contingencies," (formally FAS 5) which requires that losses be accrued when they are probable of occurring and estimable. The FFIEC "Interagency Policy Statement on the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses" provides additional guidance on the allowance methodology.

On a quarterly basis, management utilizes a systematic methodology to determine an appropriate allowance for loan losses. This methodology includes a loan grading system that requires quarterly reviews; identification of loans to be evaluated on an individual basis for impairment; results of independent reviews of asset quality and the adequacy of the allowance by regulatory agencies; consideration of current trends and volumes of nonperforming, past-due, nonaccrual and potential problem loans; as well as national and local economic trends and industry conditions.

In applying the methodology, all troubled debt restructurings, regardless of size, are considered impaired and will be individually evaluated. All nonaccrual and watchlist commercial real estate, construction and land development, agricultural real estate, multifamily residential real estate, commercial, and agricultural production loans over $50,000 are evaluated individually to determine if they are impaired. Nonaccrual residential real estate or consumer loans that are larger than is customary for DBI will also be considered impaired and evaluated individually as there would be no pool of similar loans to evaluate these loans under ASC Topic 450. Impaired loans are measured at the estimated fair value of the collateral. If the estimated fair value of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan, an impairment is recognized by creating a valuation allowance in conjunction with ASC Topic 310-10.

Loans that are not impaired are segmented into groups by type of loan. The following loan types are utilized so each segment of loans will have similar risk factors: (1) residential real estate, (2) agricultural real estate, (3) commercial real estate, (4) construction and land development, (5) commercial, (6) agricultural, (7) consumer, (8) guaranteed loans and (9) other. These loans are further segregated by internal risk ratings of non-classified, special mention, substandard and doubtful, which are defined above.

Risk factor percentages are applied to the risk rating segments of the non-impaired loans to calculate an allowance allocation in conjunction with ASC Topic 450. The risk factor percentages are based on historical loan loss experience for each loan type and are adjusted for current economic conditions and trends as well as internal loan quality trends. The historical loan loss percentages are applied to the non-classified portion of the portfolio to determine the required allocation to the allowance. The historical loan loss percentages are then multiplied by a factor based on current economic conditions to calculate the allocation for each of the remaining risk rating categories of the non-impaired loans. The current economic conditions take into account items such as vacancy rates for rental properties; property values based on actual recent sales transactions; income projections based on current prices such as dairy commodities; and other available economic data.

The above steps result in calculations that estimate the credit losses inherent in the portfolio at that time. The calculations are used to confirm the adequacy and appropriateness of the actual balance of the allowance, recognizing that the allowance represents an aggregation of judgments and estimates by management. Such calculations will influence the amount of future provisions for loan losses charged to expense.

The calculation is submitted to DSB's Board of Directors quarterly along with a recommendation for the amount of the monthly provision to the allowance. If the mix and amount of future charge-offs differ significantly from those assumptions used by management in making its determination, the allowance and provision expense could be materially affected.

NOTE 4 - NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In January 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued updated guidance related to Topic 310, "Receivables" in Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2011-01 Deferral of Effective Date of Disclosures about Troubled Debt Restructurings ("TDRs"). This amendment deferred the effective date of disclosure requirements related to TDRs that were introduced in ASU No. 2010-20, Receivables (Topic 310): Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses until FASB issued additional guidance on what constitutes a TDR.

In April, 2011, FASB issued ASU 2011-02 A Creditor's Determination of Whether a Restructuring Is a Troubled Debt Restructuring. This update to Topic 310, "Receivables," provides guidance for evaluating whether a restructuring constitutes a TDR. The ASU indicates that the creditor's evaluation must separately conclude that both the following exist: (a) the restructuring constitutes a concession; and (b) the debtor is experiencing financial difficulties. The amendments also further clarify the guidance on a creditor's evaluation of whether a concession has been granted and whether a debtor is experiencing financial difficulties. The amendments in this update are effective for the first interim or annual period beginning on or after June 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted. This also requires that the disclosures deferred by ASU No. 2011-01 be reported for interim and annual periods beginning on or after June 15, 2011. DBI does not anticipate that these amendments will have a significant impact on DBI's financial statements.

NOTE 5 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in a transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Some assets and liabilities are measured on a recurring basis while others are measured on a non-recurring basis, as required by U.S. GAAP, which also establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. The three levels of inputs defined in the standard that may be used to measure fair value are as follows:

Level 1: Quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, and other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that are supported by little, if any, market activity. These unobservable inputs reflect estimates that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

DBI used the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate fair value.

Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Federal Funds Sold: For cash, cash equivalents and federal funds sold, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Investment Securities: Investment securities available-for-sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. The fair value measurement of most of DBI's available-for-sale securities is currently determined by an independent provider using Level 2 inputs (except as noted below). The measurement is based upon quoted prices for similar assets, if available. If quoted prices are not available, fair values are measured using matrix pricing models, or other model based valuation techniques requiring observable inputs other than quoted prices such as yield curves, prepayment speed and default rates. Two of DBI's available-for-sale mortgage-backed securities (MBS) that are secured by non-traditional mortgage loans and one available-for-sale MBS secured by traditional mortgage loans that was downgraded during 2009 were analyzed by a third party in order to determine an estimated fair value. The estimated fair values were based on discounted cash flow analyses and are considered Level 3 inputs.

Refer to Note 2 - Investment Securities above for additional detail on the assumptions used in determining the estimated fair values and additional disclosures regarding DBI's investment securities. For other securities held as investments, fair value equals quoted market price, if available. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities.

Loans Receivable: The fair value of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities.

Loans Held for Sale: Mortgage loans held for sale are recorded at the lower of cost or market value. The fair value is based on a market commitment for the sale of the loan in the secondary market. These loans are typically sold within one week of funding. DBI classifies mortgage loans held for sale as nonrecurring Level 2 assets.

Impaired Loans: As defined below in the Glossary of Loan Terms section, a loan is considered to be impaired when, based on current information or events, it is probable that not all amounts due will be collected according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impairment is measured based on the fair value of the underlying collateral. The collateral value is determined based on appraisals and other market valuations for similar assets. Under FASB ASC Topic 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures," the fair value of impaired loans is reported before selling costs of the related collateral, while FASB ASC Topic 310, "Receivables," requires that impaired loans be reported on the balance sheet net of estimated selling costs. Therefore, significant estimated selling costs would result in the reported fair value of impaired loans being greater than the measurement value of impaired loans as maintained on the balance sheet. In most instances, selling costs were estimated for real estate-secured collateral and included broker commissions, legal and title transfer fees and closing costs. Impaired loans are classified as nonrecurring Level 2 assets.

Other Investments: For other investments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

Other Real Estate Owned: Real estate that DBI has taken control of in partial or full satisfaction of debt is valued at the lower of book value or fair value. The fair value is determined by analyzing the collateral value of the real estate using appraisals and other market valuations for similar assets less any estimated selling costs. The value carried on the balance sheet for other real estate owned is the estimated fair value of the properties. Other real estate owned is classified as nonrecurring Level 2 assets.

Bank Owned Life Insurance: The carrying amount of bank owned life insurance approximates fair value.

Deposit Liabilities: The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts and certain money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

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

Commitments to Extend Credit, Standby Letters of Credit and Financial Guarantees Written: The fair value of commitments is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the counterparties. For fixed-rate loan commitments, fair value also considers the difference between current levels of interest rates and the committed rates. The fair value of guarantees and letters of credit is not material.

This report may contain certain forward-looking statements, including without limitation, statements regarding results of operations, the appropriateness of the allowance for loan losses, the amounts of charge-offs and recoveries, capital to assets ratios, capacity for paying dividends and liquidity. These statements speak of DBI's plans, goals, beliefs or expectations, refer to estimates or use similar terms. Forward looking statements can generally be identified because they contain words and phrases such as "may," "project," "are confident," "should," "predict," "believe," "plan," "expect," "estimate," "anticipate," and similar expressions. These forward looking statements are inherently uncertain and actual results may differ from DBI's expectations. The factors that, among others, could impact current and future performance include but are not limited to: (i) adverse changes in asset quality and resulting credit risk-related losses and expenses; (ii) adverse changes in the local economy; (iii) fluctuations in market rates and prices which can negatively affect net interest margin, asset valuations and expense expectations; (iv) changes in regulatory requirements of federal and state agencies applicable to banks and bank holding companies; and (v) the factors set forth in Item 1A of DBI's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 (the "2010 Annual Report"), which item is incorporated herein by reference, as well as other risks identified in this Report. When reviewing forward looking statements to make decisions with respect to DBI, investors and others are cautioned to consider these and other risks and uncertainties. All forward-looking statements contained in this report are based upon information presently available and DBI assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements.

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act

On July 21, 2010, President Obama signed the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act ("Dodd-Frank Act") into law. This legislation makes extensive changes to the laws regulating financial services firms and requires significant rulemaking. In addition, the legislation mandates multiple studies, which could result in additional legislative or regulatory action. While the full effects of the legislation on DBI and DSB cannot yet be determined, this legislation is generally perceived as negatively impacting the banking industry. This legislation may result in higher compliance and other costs, reduced revenues and higher capital and liquidity requirements, among other things, which could adversely affect DBI's and DSB's business.

Critical Accounting Policies

The accounting and reporting policies of DBI are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and conform to general practices in the banking industry. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with these principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates and assumptions are based on information available at the date of the financial statements. Certain policies inherently have a greater reliance on the use of estimates, assumptions, and judgments and as such have a greater possibility of producing results that could be materially different than originally reported. Management believes that DBI's critical accounting policies are those relating to the allowance for loan and lease losses, the valuation of investment securities and intangible assets.

Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses

The allowance for loan and lease losses ("ALLL") is an estimate of the losses that may be sustained in the loan and lease portfolio. Please refer to the Allowance for Loan Losses section of Note 3 - Loans above for detail on the allowance methodology. Management believes that the ALLL is appropriate as of March 31, 2011.

Valuation of Investment Securities

Investment securities are classified as available for sale and are valued at their fair market value. Please refer to the Investment Securities section of Note 2 - Investment Securities and Note 5 - Fair Value Measurement for additional details on the valuation of investment securities.

Intangible Assets

DBI has a core deposit intangible asset that was originated in connection with DSB's expansion through an acquisition of an established branch operation in 1997. The acquisition did not meet the definition of a business combination in accordance with ASC 805 - Accounting for Business Combinations Occurring in Periods Beginning before December 15, 2008. As such, DBI continues to amortize the intangible asset related to the acquisition over a period of fifteen years. Annually DBI reviews the intangible assets for impairment and records an impairment charge, if any, to earnings.

Glossary of Loan Terms

Impaired Loan - A loan is impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that not all amounts due will be collected according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impaired loans are measured at the estimated fair value of the collateral. If the estimated fair value of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan, an impairment is recognized by creating a valuation allowance.

Nonaccrual Loan - DSB's policy is to place in nonaccrual status all loans which are contractually past due 90 days or more as to any payment of principal or interest and all other loans as to which reasonable doubt exists as to the full, timely collection of interest or principal based on management's view of the financial condition of the borrower. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual, all interest previously accrued but not collected is reversed against current period interest income. Income on such loans is then recognized only to the extent that cash is received and where the future collection of principal is probable. Interest accruals are resumed on such loans only when they are brought fully current with respect to interest and principal and when, in the judgment of management, the loans are estimated to be fully collectible as to both principal and interest.

Non-Performing Assets - Non-performing assets include nonaccrual loans as defined above and real and personal properties acquired in satisfaction of debts previously owed.

Past Due Accruing Loans - A loan on which all or part of a scheduled payment is delinquent by more than 30 days but less than 90 days past due, except loans that are considered nonaccrual.

Potential Problem Loans - Potential problem loans are accruing loans in which there exists doubt as to the ability of the borrower to comply with present loan repayment terms. Management's decision to place loans in this category does not necessarily mean that DBI expects losses to occur on these loans, but that management recognizes that a higher degree of risk is associated with these accruing loans and they deserve closer scrutiny.

20

Management's Discussion and Analysis

Restructured Loans - Restructured loans involve the granting of some concession to the borrower involving the modification of terms of the loan, such as changes in the payment schedule, the amortization term, the interest rate, or a combination of these.

Risk Rating - Risk rating, which is also sometimes referred to as loan grade, is the credit quality grade assigned to each loan. Loans are assigned a risk rating upon origination. Lenders and credit review analysts conduct periodic reviews and evaluations and make adjustments to the assigned grades when appropriate. The range of categories from the best quality to worst is as follows: highest quality, solid quality, some weakness, inherent industry weakness, special mention, substandard, doubtful and loss. Impaired loans are generally rated a substandard or lower risk grade.

Special Mention Loans - Loans classified "special mention" are one step above substandard loans as described below. These loans contain some weakness, which if not corrected or improved upon could lead to further deterioration and a lower rating.

Substandard - A "substandard" loan is a loan that is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the borrower or the value of any collateral. Loans classified "substandard" have well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize prospects for liquidation and are characterized by the distinct possibility that some loss will be sustained if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Results of Operations

Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2011, was $0.9 million, an increase of $0.1 million or 14.9%, compared to $0.8 million for the corresponding period in 2010. This improvement was primarily the result of a $0.2 million decrease in the provision for loan losses and a $0.1 million decline in salary expense, partially offset by an increase in income tax expense of $0.1 million.

Net interest income for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 was $3.5 million, which was relatively stable compared to that recorded for the corresponding period of the prior year. The following table sets forth a summary of the changes in interest earned and interest paid resulting from changes in volume and changes in rates:

Management's Discussion and Analysis

The nominal decline in net interest income at March 31, 2011 was due primarily to the decline in yields on loans and taxable securities, along with a $5.5 million decline in the average balance of tax-exempt securities compared to the quarter-ended March 31, 2010. The net interest rate spread declined 8 basis points during this period from 3.54% during the first quarter of 2010 to 3.46% for the first quarter of 2011. DBI's average yield on earning assets declined 40 basis points from 5.22% for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 to 4.82% during the most recent quarter. The average yield on loans and taxable securities declined 19 basis points and 68 basis points, respectively. This reduction in the yield on earning assets was partially offset by a decline in the cost of funds of 32 basis points during the same period, from 1.68% for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 to 1.36% during the first quarter of 2011. The reduction in the average balance of tax-exempt securities mentioned above was the primary factor in the decline in interest income due to volume changes.

For the first quarter of 2011, DBI's provision for credit losses was $0.2 million as compared to $0.4 million during the same period of 2010. Net charge-offs of $0.3 million were recognized in the first quarter of 2011 compared to net charge-offs of $0.1 million during the corresponding period in 2010.

Noninterest income for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was reduced by $22,176 compared to the corresponding period in 2010, a decrease of 4.3%. During the first quarter of 2010, gains on the sale of securities of $59,267 were realized while there were no securities sales during the first quarter of 2011. This was partially offset by an increase in the gains on sale of loans of $39,783 during the first three months of 2011 over the amount recorded during the same period in 2010. The gains in 2011 were positively impacted by the volume of loans that were in the pipeline at year-end 2010. However, a decline in mortgage loan originations during recent months could result in lower gains on the sale of such loans recognized during future quarters.

Noninterest expense decreased $64,886 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the first quarter in 2010. The decrease is primarily attributable to a decline in salary expense of $120,981 during the period million due to a reduction in the first quarter 2011 bonus accrual, as well as severance payment accruals recorded in first quarter of 2010 that were not repeated during the current period. The 2011 bonus accrual was reduced during the first quarter due to a modest over-accrual for bonuses paid out in 2011.

Additional OTTI credit loss was recognized during the most recent quarter on one of the two securities previously determined to be other-than-temporarily impaired. The credit loss recognized through the income statement was $24,474 during the three months ended March 31, 2011, while there was no credit loss recognized during the first quarter of 2010.

For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, DBI recorded combined federal and state income tax expense of $367,364 and $246,574, respectively. These provisions reflect effective income tax rates of 29% in 2011 and 24% in 2010. DBI's combined statutory tax rate is 39%. The lower effective income tax rates are primarily due to certain federally tax exempt interest earned on state and local government investment securities.

Financial Condition

Total assets decreased by $7.5 million between December 31, 2010 and March 31, 2011. Cash, cash equivalents and fed funds sold decreased by $4.9 million since December 31, 2010 while loans held for sale declined $3.4 million during the same period. Investment securities increased $1.0 million during the first three months of 2011. Loans were $0.2 million higher as of March 31, 2011 compared to year-end 2010 balances.

Management's Discussion and Analysis

The allowance for credit losses decreased approximately $0.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2011. Provisions of $0.2 million were added to the allowance during the first quarter of 2011 and were offset by net charge offs of $0.3 million during the period. The allowance equals 2.24% of total loans at March 31, 2011 compared to 2.29% at December 31, 2010. Nonaccrual loans totaled $7.8 million at March 31, 2011, a decrease of approximately $0.8 million compared to December 31, 2010. The following table sets for nonaccrual loans by major loan category:

DBI's ratio of loans more than 30 days past due (including nonaccrual loans) to total loans was 3.05% at March 31, 2011, compared to 3.04% at year-end 2010. As of March 31, 2011, management has identified $48.7 million of potential problem loans compared to $44.1 million at year-end 2010. Loan quality continues to be a concern and improving the portfolio is the primary focus for management. DBI has no accruing loans that are past due 90 days or more.

Total deposits declined $7.1 million at March 31, 2011 compared to year-end 2010 balances. Management attributes this decline to a seasonal fluctuation as deposit balances tend to increase at year-end and then decline in the following months. Noninterest-bearing deposits decreased by $2.5 million, or 6.5%, during the first three months of 2011. Interest-bearing deposits decreased by $4.6 million between December 31, 2010 and March 31, 2011. NOW accounts declined $11.0 million or 36.6% and certificates of deposits fell $2.0 million or 1.6% during the first three months of 2011 while money market accounts increased $7.1 million or 6.2%, during this period. Given the current interest rate environment, there has been a shift away from certificates of deposits into money market accounts as customers are reluctant to lock into a rate at this time. DBI's money market rates are currently comparable to its rates for short-term certificate of deposits.

TOTAL

Short-term borrowings decreased $1.1 million or 7.7% as of March 31, 2011 compared to the prior year-end and long-term borrowings increased $0.9 million or 2.9% during the same period.

Capital Resources

Stockholders' equity increased by $0.8 million to $54.7 million as of March 31, 2011 from December 31, 2010 due primarily to earnings for the period of $0.9 million that were partially offset by an increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss on securities of $0.1 million. As of March 31, 2011 DBI's leverage ratio was 13.4%, its risk-based core capital ratio was 17.5% and its risk-based total capital ratio was 18.8%. DBI and DSB continue to maintain capital levels well above the regulatory minimum levels established for "well-capitalized" institutions. As of March 31, 2011, DSB's leverage ratio was 10.6% and its risk-based total capital ratio was 15.5%. DBI believes its and DSB's capital positions as of March 31, 2011 are adequate under current economic conditions.

Liquidity

Liquidity refers to the ability of DBI to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet its needs. DBI maintains liquid assets and established lines of credit to meet its liquidity needs. DBI's Board of Directors annually approves a Consolidated Contingent Liquidity Plan, which reviews the sources and uses of liquidity for DBI, DSB and DACC. Cash, cash equivalents and federal funds sold decreased $4.9 million or 13.8% to $30.4 million during the first three months of 2011 primarily due to the reduction in deposits of $7.1 million. The major sources and uses of cash are detailed in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

In addition to on-balance sheet sources of funds, DBI also has off-balance sheet sources available to meet liquidity needs. Specifically, DBI has unused lines of credit of $49.8 million as of March 31, 2011. This includes a $20.0 million line of credit with the Federal Reserve Bank that was established in 1999. DSB has not borrowed on this line. DBI also has $69.2 million of eligible loans and securities that could be pledged to increase its available credit. Management believes DBI's and DSB's liquidity positions as of March 31, 2011 are adequate under current economic conditions.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

DBI and its subsidiaries are parties to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of their customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the statement of financial condition. The contract or notional amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement DBI and its subsidiaries have in particular classes of financial instruments.

The exposure of DBI and its subsidiaries to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual or notional amount of these instruments. DBI and its subsidiaries use the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as for on-balance sheet instruments. DBI and its subsidiaries require collateral or other security to support financial instruments with credit risk. The following table sets forth DBI's commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit:

Management's Discussion and Analysis

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. DBI and its subsidiaries evaluate each customer's creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment and income-producing commercial properties.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by DSB to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support commercial business transactions. When a customer fails to perform according to the terms of the agreement, DSB honors drafts drawn by the third party in amounts up to the contract amount. A majority of the letters of credit expire within one year. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment and income-producing commercial properties and residential properties. All letters of credit are fully collateralized.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

DBI's primary market risk position has not materially changed from that disclosed in DBI's 2010 Annual Report.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, DBI's management, under the supervision and with the participation of DBI's principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated DBI's disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Based on that evaluation, DBI's principal executive officer and principal financial officer believe that DBI's disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the end of the period covered by this Report.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

There were no significant changes in DBI's internal controls over financial reporting or in other factors that have significantly affected these controls during the fiscal quarter covered by this report, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.

Part II. Other Information

Item 1A. Risk Factors

In addition to the other information set forth in this Report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Item 1A - Risk Factors of DBI's 2010 Annual Report, which could materially affect DBI's business, financial condition or future results. There have been no material changes in risk factors as described in such Report.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

During the quarter ended March 31, 2011, DBI did not sell any equity securities which were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or repurchase any of its equity securities.

The Federal Reserve Board ("the Board") has adopted regulations that deal with the measure of capitalization for bank holding companies. The Board has also issued a policy statement on the payment of cash dividends by bank holding companies, wherein the Board has stated that a bank holding company experiencing earnings weaknesses should not pay cash dividends exceeding its net income or which could only be funded in ways that weaken the bank holding company's financial health, such as by borrowing.

The ability of DBI to pay dividends on its common stock is largely dependent upon the ability of DSB to pay dividends on its stock held by DBI. DSB's ability to pay dividends is restricted by both state and federal laws and regulations. DSB is subject to policies and regulations issued by the FDIC and the Division of Banking of the Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions ("the Division"), which, in part, establish minimum acceptable capital requirements for banks, thereby limiting the ability of such banks to pay dividends. In addition, Wisconsin law provides that state chartered banks may declare and pay dividends out of undivided profits but only after provision has been made for all expenses, losses, required reserves, taxes and interest accrued or due from the bank. Payment of dividends in some circumstances may require the written consent of the Division.
