Patapsco Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiary

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Note 1:   Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Patapsco Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company" or “Patapsco Bancorp”) and its wholly owned subsidiary, The Patapsco Bank (the “Bank"), the Bank’s wholly owned subsidiaries Prime Business Leasing and Patapsco Financial Services, Inc. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Note 2:   The Patapsco Bank

The Bank, the primary operating unit of the Company, is regulated by The Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond (the “Federal Reserve Bank") and The State of Maryland. The primary business of the Bank is to attract deposits from individual and corporate customers and to originate residential and commercial mortgage loans, consumer loans and commercial business loans. The Bank competes with other financial and mortgage institutions in attracting and retaining deposits and originating loans.
 
Note 3:   Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying consolidated statement of financial condition at June 30, 2010, which has been derived from audited consolidated financial statements, and the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q and therefore, do not include all disclosures necessary for a complete presentation of the financial statements in conformity with Accounting Principles Generally Accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).  However, all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the interim financial statements have been included. Such adjustments were of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year.  For additional information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010.

Loans Receivable

Loans receivable that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are stated at their outstanding unpaid principal balances adjusted for charge-offs, the allowance for loan losses, and any deferred fees or costs on originated loans.  Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance.  The accrual of interest is generally discontinued when the contractual payment of principal or interest has become 90 days past due or management has serious doubts about further collectability of principal or interest, even though the loan is currently performing.  A loan may remain on accrual status if it is in the process of collection and is either guaranteed or well secured.  When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, unpaid interest credited to income in the current year is reversed and unpaid interest accrued in prior years is charged against the allowance for loan losses.  Interest received on nonaccrual loans generally is either applied against principal or reported as interest income, according to management’s judgment as to the collectability of principal.  Generally, loans are restored to accrual status when the obligation is brought current, has performed in accordance with the contractual terms for a reasonable period of time and the ultimate collectability of the total contractual principal and interest is no longer in doubt.  Consumer loans are generally charged off after they become more than 90 days past due.  All other loans are charged off when management concludes that they are uncollectible.

The Company accounts for loans in accordance with ASC 310, “Receivables,” when due to a deterioration in a borrower’s financial position, the Company grants concessions that would not otherwise be considered.  Interest income is recognized on these loans using the accrual method of accounting, provided they are performing in accordance with their restructured terms and are considered collectible.

 
7

 

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses (“allowance”) represents an amount, that in the judgment of management, will be adequate to absorb probable losses on outstanding loans and leases that may become uncollectible.  The allowance represents an estimate made based upon two principles of accounting: (1) ASC 450 “Contingencies”, that requires losses to be accrued when their occurrence is probable and estimable, and (2) ASC 310, “Receivables,” that requires losses be accrued when it is probable that the lender will not collect all principal and interest due under the original terms of the loan.  The adequacy of the allowance is determined through careful evaluation of the loan portfolio.  This determination is inherently subjective and requires significant estimates, including estimated losses on pools of homogeneous loans based on historical loss experience and consideration of the current economic environment and other qualitative factors that may be subject to change.  Loans and leases deemed uncollectible are charged against the allowance and recoveries of previously charged-off amounts are credited to it.  The level of the allowance is adjusted through the provision for loan losses that is recorded as a current period expense.

The methodology for assessing the appropriateness of the allowance includes a specific allowance, a formula allowance and a nonspecific allowance. The specific allowance is for risk rated credits on an individual basis. The formula allowance reflects historical losses by credit category. The nonspecific allowance captures losses whose impact on the portfolio have occurred but have yet to be recognized in either the specific allowance or the formula allowance.  The factors used in determining the nonspecific allowance include trends in delinquencies, trends in volumes and terms of loans, the size of loans relative to the allowance, concentration of credits, the quality of the risk identification system and credit administration and local and national economic trends.

A loan is determined to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that Patapsco will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement.  A loan is not considered impaired during a period of insignificant delay in payment if Patapsco expects to collect all amounts due, including past-due interest.  Patapsco generally considers a period of insignificant delay in payment to include delinquency up to and including 90 days.  Impairment is measured through a comparison of the loan’s carrying amount to the present value of its expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, or at the loan's observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.

Large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans are evaluated collectively for impairment. Accordingly, the Company does not separately identify individual residential first and second mortgage loans and consumer installment loans for impairment disclosures, unless such loans are the subject of a restructuring agreement.

Impaired loans are therefore generally comprised of commercial mortgage, real estate development, and certain restructured residential loans.  In addition, impaired loans are generally loans which management has placed in nonaccrual status since loans are placed in nonaccrual status on the earlier of the date that management determines that the collection of principal and/or interest is in doubt or the date that principal or interest is 90 days or more past-due.

Patapsco recognized interest income for impaired loans consistent with its method for nonaccrual loans.  Specifically, interest payments received are recognized as interest income or, if the ultimate collectibility of principal is in doubt, are applied to principal.

Note 4:   Subsequent Events

In accordance with ASC Topic 855, “Subsequent Events,” management has evaluated potential subsequent events through the date the financial statements were issued for potential recognition or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements.

Note 5:   Recent Accounting Pronouncements

ASC Topic 860

In October 2009, the FASB issued Topic 860, “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets."  The amendments in this Update improve financial reporting by eliminating the exceptions for qualifying special-purpose entities from the consolidation guidance and the exception that permitted sale accounting for certain mortgage securitizations when a transferor has not surrendered control over the transferred financial assets. In addition, the amendments require enhanced disclosures about the risks that a transferor continues to be exposed to because of its continuing involvement in transferred financial assets.  Comparability and consistency in accounting for transferred financial assets will also be improved through clarifications of the requirements for isolation and limitations on portions of financial assets that are eligible for sale accounting.

This Update is effective at the start of a reporting entity’s first fiscal year beginning after November 15, 2009.  Early application is not permitted.  Adoption of this ASC did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

ASC Topic 810

In October 2009, the FASB issued Topic 810, “Improvements to Financial Reporting by Enterprises Involved with Variable Interest Entities.”  This Update amends the Codification for the issuance of FASB Statement No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R).

The amendments in this Update replace the quantitative-based risks and rewards calculation for determining which reporting entity, if any, has a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity with an approach focused on identifying which reporting entity has the power to direct the activities of a variable interest entity that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and (1) the obligation to absorb losses of the entity or (2) the right to receive benefits from the entity. An approach that is expected to be primarily qualitative will be more effective for identifying which reporting entity has a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity.  The amendments in this Update also require additional disclosures about a reporting entity’s involvement in variable interest entities, which will enhance the information provided to users of financial statements.

This Update is effective at the start of a reporting entity’s first fiscal year beginning after November 15, 2009.  Early application is not permitted.  Adoption of this ASC did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

ASU 2010-18

Topic 310, “Receivables”, codifies the consensus reached in EITF Issue No. 09-I, “Effect of a Loan Modification When the Loan Is Part of a Pool That Is Accounted for as a Single Asset.” The amendments to the Codification provide that modifications of loans that are accounted for within a pool under Subtopic 310-30 do not result in the removal of those loans from the pool even if the modification of those loans would otherwise be considered a troubled debt restructuring. An entity will continue to be required to consider whether the pool of assets in which the loan is included is impaired if expected cash flows for the pool change. ASU 2010-18 does not affect the accounting for loans under the scope of Subtopic 310-30 that are not accounted for within pools. Loans accounted for individually under Subtopic 310-30 continue to be subject to the troubled debt restructuring accounting provisions within Subtopic 310-40.

Topic 310 is effective prospectively for modifications of loans accounted for within pools under Subtopic 310-30 occurring in the first interim or annual period ending on or after July 15, 2010. Early application is permitted. Upon initial adoption of Topic 310, an entity may make a one-time election to terminate accounting for loans as a pool under Subtopic 310-30. This election may be applied on a pool-by-pool basis and does not preclude an entity from applying pool accounting to subsequent acquisitions of loans with credit deterioration.  Adoption of this ASC did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

ASU 2010-20

ASU 2010-20, Receivables (Topic 310): Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses, will help investors assess the credit risk of a company’s receivables portfolio and the adequacy of its allowance for credit losses held against the portfolios by expanding credit risk disclosures.

This ASU requires more information about the credit quality of financing receivables in the disclosures to financial statements, such as aging information and credit quality indicators.  Both new and existing disclosures must be disaggregated by portfolio segment or class.  The disaggregation of information is based on how a company develops its allowance for credit losses and how it manages its credit exposure.

The amendments in this Update apply to all public and nonpublic entities with financing receivables.  Financing receivables include loans and trade account receivables.  However, short-term trade accounts receivable, receivables measured at fair value or lower of cost or fair value, and debt securities are exempt from these disclosure amendments.

The effective date of ASU 2010-20 differs for public and nonpublic companies.  For public companies, the amendments that require disclosures as of the end of a reporting period are effective for periods ending on or after December 15, 2010.  The amendments that require disclosures about activity that occurs during a reporting period are effective for periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010.  Adoption of this ASC is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

ASC 2011-02

The FASB has issued ASC 2011-02: Receivables (Topic 310) – A Creditor’s Determination of Whether a Restructuring is a Troubled Debt Restructuring, to clarify the accounting principles applied to loan modifications, as defined by FASB ASC Subtopic 310-40, Receivables – Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors. This guidance was prompted by the increased volume in loan modifications prompted by the recent economic downturn. The Update clarifies guidance on a creditor’s evaluation of whether or not a concession has been granted, with an emphasis on evaluating all aspects of the modification rather than a focus on specific criteria, such as the effective interest rate test, to determine a concession. The Update goes on to provide guidance on specific types of modifications such as changes in the interest rate of the borrowing, and insignificant delays in payments, as well as guidance on the creditor’s evaluation of whether or not a debtor is experiencing financial difficulties.

For public entities, the amendments in the Update are effective for the first interim or annual periods beginning on or after June 15, 2011, and should be applied retrospectively to the beginning of the annual period of adoption. The entity should also disclose information required by ASU 2010-20, Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses, which had previously been deferred by ASU 2011-01, Deferral of the Effective Date of Disclosures about Troubled Debt Restructurings in Update No. 2010-20, for interim and annual periods beginning on or after June 15, 2011.  Management expects disclosure requirement will increase but has not determined the impact of this ASC on the financial statements.

International Financial Reporting Standards

In November 2008, the SEC released a proposed roadmap regarding the potential use by U.S. issuers of financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). IFRS is a comprehensive series of accounting standards published by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). Under the proposed roadmap, the Company may be required to prepare financial statements in accordance with IFRS as early as 2014. The SEC will make a determination in 2011 regarding the mandatory adoption of IFRS. The Company is currently assessing the impact that this potential change would have on its consolidated financial statements, and it will continue to monitor the development of the potential implementation of IFRS.

All mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations in the portfolio were comprised of securities issued by U.S. Government agencies.

Securities, issued by agencies of the federal government, with a carrying value of $5.8 million and $5.1 million on March 31, 2011 and June 30, 2010, respectively, were pledged to secure the Bank’s federal funds accommodation.  Securities, issued by agencies of the federal government, with a carrying value of $19.9 million on March 31, 2011 were pledged to secure the Bank’s borrowing capacity at the Federal Reserve’s discount window.

During the nine months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, $2.9 million and $1.1 million in securities were sold at a gross gain of $161,000 and $71,000, respectively, using the specific identification method.  During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, $1.4 million and $1.1 million in securities were sold at a gross gain of $94,000 and $71,000, respectively, using the specific identification method.

At March 31, 2011, the Company had twenty three securities in an unrealized loss position.  Unrealized losses detailed above relate to fourteen collateralized mortgage obligations, six U.S. Government Agency securities, two mortgage-backed securities and one corporate bond.  The declines in fair value are considered temporary and are primarily due to interest rate fluctuations.  The Company does not have the intent to sell these securities, and it is more likely than not that it will not be required to sell the securities prior to their recovery.  None of the individual unrealized losses are significant.

The carrying amount of investment securities required by law, which includes Federal Reserve Bank and Federal Home Loan Bank stocks totals $2.7 million and $2.8 million at March 31, 2011 and June 30, 2010, respectively, and such securities are considered restricted as to marketability.  Management evaluates the Company’s restricted stock for impairment in accordance with ASC Topic 350, “Accounting by Certain Entities (Including With Trade Receivables) That Lend to or Finance The Activities of Others.”  Management’s determination of whether this investment is impaired is based on their assessment of the ultimate recoverability of their cost rather than by recognizing temporary declines in value.  The determination of whether a decline affects the ultimate recoverability of their cost is influenced by criteria such as (1) the significance of the decline in net assets of the issuer as compared to the capital stock amount for the issuer and the length of time this situation has persisted, (2) commitments by the issuer to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance of the issuer, and (3) the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on institutions and, accordingly, on the customer base of the issuer.  The Company has concluded that the investment securities required by law are not impaired as of March 31, 2011.

The segments of the Bank’s loan portfolio are disaggregated to a level that allows management to monitor risk and performance.  The commercial real estate (“CRE”) loan segment is further disaggregated into commercial mortgages and acquisition, development, and construction loans.  The commercial loan segment consists of loans made for the purpose of financing the activities of commercial customers.  The consumer loan segment consists primarily of installment loans (direct and indirect), home equity lines of credit, which are generally second liens, and overdraft lines of credit connected with customer deposit accounts.

Management evaluates individual loans in all of the commercial segments for possible impairment if the loan is greater than $100,000, and if the loan either is on nonaccrual status, or is risk rated Substandard.  Loans are considered to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal and/or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement.  Factors considered by management in evaluating impairment include payment status and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due.  Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reason for the delay, the borrower’s primary payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed.  The Company does not separately evaluate individual consumer loans for impairment, unless such loans are part of a larger relationship that is impaired, or are classified as a troubled debt restructuring agreement.

 
12

 

Once the determination has been made that a loan is impaired, the determination of whether a specific allocation of the allowance is necessary is measured by comparing the recorded investment in the loan to the fair value of the loan using one of three methods: (a) the present value of the expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate; (b) the loan’s observed market price; or (c) the fair value of the collateral less selling costs.  The method is selected on a loan-by-loan basis, with management primarily utilizing the fair value of collateral method.

The evaluation of the need and amount of a specific allocation of the allowance and whether a loan can be removed from impairment status is made on a quarterly basis.  The Company’s policy for recognizing interest income on impaired loans does not differ from its overall policy for interest recognition.

Management uses an eight point internal risk rating system to monitor the credit quality of the overall loan portfolio.  The first four categories are considered not criticized, and are aggregated as “Pass” rated.  Risks Ratings One through Three are deemed “acceptable”.  Four rated credits require a quarterly review, because potential weakness in some form may exist.  The criticized rating categories utilized by management generally follow bank regulatory definitions.  The Special Mention category includes assets that are currently protected but are potentially weak, resulting in an undue and unwarranted credit risk, but not to the point of justifying a Substandard classification.  Loans in the Substandard category have well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt, may be on non-accrual, and have a distinct possibility that some loss will be sustained if the weaknesses are not corrected.   Loans greater than 90 days past due are considered Substandard.  Loans in the Doubtful category are on non-accrual and have a definite loss of an undetermined amount.  The portion of any loan that represents a specific allocation of the allowance for loan losses is placed in the Loss category.

To help ensure that risk ratings are accurate and reflect the present and future capacity of borrowers to repay a loan as agreed, the Bank has a structured loan rating process with several layers of internal and external oversight.  Generally, consumer and residential mortgage loans are included in the Pass categories unless a specific action, such as a delinquency, bankruptcy, repossession or death occurs to raise awareness of a possible credit event.  The Bank’s Commercial Loan Officers are responsible for timely and accurate risk rating of the loans in their portfolios at origination and on an ongoing basis.  Commercial Business Loans, Commercial Real Estate Loans, Residential Mortgage Loans, Home Equity Lines of Credit and Leases that are greater than 30 days past due are individually reviewed on a monthly basis and reported to the Board of Directors.  In addition, all Residential, Commercial Business, Commercial Real Estate, Consumer Loans and Leases rated Four through Eight are evaluated with a detailed review, including plans for resolution, and presented to the Watch Committee quarterly.  Loans in the Special Mention, Substandard and Doubtful categories are evaluated for impairment and are given separate consideration in the determination of the allowance.  The Bank engages an external consultant to conduct loan reviews on an annual basis.  Generally, the external consultant randomly reviews relationships within the Commercial Business and Commercial Real Estate portfolios with an emphasis on loans over $500,000, concentrations, criticized assets, non-performing and Regulation O Loans.

(1)
Nonaccrual status denotes loans on which, in the opinion of management, the collection of additional interest is unlikely.  Payments received on a nonaccrual loan are either applied to the outstanding principal balance or recorded as interest income, depending on management’s assessment of the collectability of the loan.
 
(2)
Other nonperforming assets represent property acquired by Patapsco Bancorp through foreclosure or repossession.
 
(3)
Certain troubled debt restructurings are accounted on a non-accrual basis and included in total non-performing loans above.

An allowance for loan losses (“ALL”) is maintained to absorb losses from the loan portfolio.  The ALL is based on management’s continuing evaluation of the risk characteristics and credit quality of the loan portfolio, assessment of current economic conditions, diversification and size of the portfolio, adequacy of collateral, past and anticipated loss experience, and the amount of non-performing loans.

The Bank’s methodology for determining the ALL is based on the requirements of ASC Section 310-10-35 for loans individually evaluated for impairment (discussed above) and ASC Subtopic 450-20 for loans collectively evaluated for impairment.  The total of the two components represent the Bank’s ALL.

Loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment are analyzed with general allowances being made as appropriate.  For general allowances, historical loss trends are used in the estimation of losses in the current portfolio.  These historical loss amounts are modified by other qualitative factors.

The classes described above, which are based on the Federal call report code assigned to each loan, provide the starting point for the ALL analysis.  Management tracks the historical net charge-off activity at the call code level.  A historical charge-off factor is calculated utilizing a defined number of consecutive historical years.  Consumer pools currently utilize one year, leases currently utilize two years, while Commercial and Residential pools currently utilize three to four years.  All Commercial watch list loans over $100,000 are individually evaluated for impairment.

“Pass” rated credits are segregated from “criticized” credits for the application of historical and qualitative factors.  Loans in the criticized pools, which possess certain qualities or characteristics that may lead to collection and loss issues, are individually monitored by management and subject to additional qualitative factors.

Management has identified a number of additional qualitative factors which it uses to supplement the historical charge-off factor because these factors are likely to cause estimated credit losses associated with the existing loan pools to differ from historical loss experience.  The additional factors that are evaluated quarterly and updated using information obtained from internal, regulatory, and governmental sources are: national and local economic trends and conditions; levels of and trends in delinquency rates and non-accrual loans; trends in volume, size, and terms of loans; effects of changes in lending policies; experience, ability and depth of lending staff; and risk identification methods.

The allowance for loan losses is based on estimates, and actual losses will vary from current estimates.  Management believes that the granularity of the homogenous pools and the related historical loss ratios and other qualitative factors, as well as the consistency in the application of assumptions, result in an ALL that is representative of the risk found in the components of the portfolio at March 31, 2011.

At March 31, 2011 and June 30, 2010, the Company had an agreement under a blanket-floating lien with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta that provides the Company a line of credit of $61.4 million and $50.7 million, respectively, which is secured by qualified mortgage loans. Borrowings totaled $12.0 million and $17.1 million at March 31, 2011 and June 30, 2010, respectively. The Company is required to maintain as collateral for its FHLB borrowings qualified mortgage loans in an amount greater than 100% of the outstanding advances.

Note 8:   Junior Subordinated Debentures

On October 31, 2005, Patapsco Statutory Trust I (the “Trust”), a Connecticut statutory business trust and an unconsolidated wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, issued $5 million of capital trust pass-through securities to investors. The interest rate is fixed for the first seven years at 6.465%.  Thereafter, the interest rate adjusts on a quarterly basis at the rate of the three month LIBOR plus 1.48%. Patapsco Statutory Trust I purchased $5,155,000 of junior subordinated deferrable interest debentures from the Company. The debentures are the sole asset of the Trust. The terms of the junior subordinated debentures are the same as the terms of the capital securities. The Company has also fully and unconditionally guaranteed the obligations of the Trust under the capital securities. The capital securities are redeemable by the Company on or after October 31, 2010, at par.   The capital securities must be redeemed upon final maturity of the subordinated debentures on December 31, 2035.

On May 6, 2010, the Company’s Board of Directors determined to suspend interest payments on the trust preferred securities.  The Company’s Board of Directors took this action in consultation with the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond as required by recent regulatory policy guidance.  The Company currently has sufficient capital and liquidity to pay the scheduled interest payments; however, the Company believes this decision will better support the capital position of The Patapsco Bank, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.  At March 31, 2011, cumulative unpaid interest totaled $327,000.  This amount has been accrued in the consolidated financial statements.

Note 9:   Preferred Stock

On December 19, 2008, as part of the Troubled Asset Relief Program’s (“TARP”) Capital Purchase Program, the Company entered into a Letter Agreement, and the related Securities Purchase Agreement – Standard Terms (collectively, the “Purchase Agreement”), with the United States Department of the Treasury (“Treasury”), pursuant to which the Company issued (i) 6,000 shares of Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A, liquidation preference of $1,000 per share (“Series A preferred stock”), and (ii) a warrant for the Treasury to purchase an additional $300,000 in preferred stock (“Series B preferred stock”), for an aggregate purchase price of $6.0 million.

The Series A preferred stock qualifies as Tier 1 capital and pays cumulative dividends at a rate of 5% per annum until February 15, 2014.  Beginning February 15, 2014, the dividend rate will increase to 9% per annum.  Under the original terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company is prohibited from redeeming the Series A preferred stock within the first three years unless it completed a qualified equity offering whereby it received aggregate gross proceeds of not less than $6.0 million.  However, the provisions introduced by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 indicate that once the Company notifies Treasury that it would like to redeem the Series A preferred stock, the Treasury must permit the Company to do so subject to consultation with the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond.  The Company will be subject to existing supervisory procedures for approving redemption requests for capital instruments.  The Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond will weigh the Company’s desire to redeem the Series A preferred stock against the contribution of Treasury capital to the Company’s overall soundness, capital adequacy and ability to lend, including confirming that the Company has a comprehensive internal capital assessment process.
 
On December 19, 2008, Treasury exercised all of the warrants on the Series B preferred stock at the exercise price of $0.01 per share.  The Series B preferred stock qualifies as Tier 1 capital and pays cumulative dividends at a rate of 9% per annum.  The Series B preferred stock may not be redeemed until all the Series A preferred stock has been redeemed.

The Series A preferred stock and Series B preferred stock were issued in a transaction exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.  Neither the Series A preferred stock nor the Series B preferred stock will be subject to any contractual restrictions on transfer.

On May 6, 2010, the Company’s Board of Directors determined to suspend payment of regular quarterly cash dividends on the $6.0 million in Series A Preferred Stock and $300,000 in Series B Preferred Stock.  The Company’s Board of Directors took this action in consultation with the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond as required by recent regulatory policy guidance.  The Company currently has sufficient capital and liquidity to pay the scheduled dividends on the preferred stock; however, the Company believes this decision will better support the capital position of The Patapsco Bank, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.  At March 31, 2011, cumulative unpaid dividends totaled $327,000.  This amount has not been accrued in the consolidated financial statements.

Note 12: Guarantees

The Company does not issue any guarantees that would require liability recognition or disclosure, other than its standby letters of credit issued by the Bank.  Standby letters of credit are conditional written commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party.  Generally, all letters of credit when issued have expiration dates within one year.  The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as those that are involved in extending loan facilities to customers.  The Bank, generally, holds collateral and/or personal guarantees supporting these commitments.  The Bank had $1,563,000 of standby letters of credit as of March 31, 2011 and $1,349,000 outstanding as of June 30, 2010.  Management believes that the proceeds obtained through a liquidation of collateral and the enforcement of guarantees would be sufficient to cover the potential amount of future payment required under the corresponding guarantees.   The amount of the liability as of March 31, 2011 and June 30, 2010 for guarantees under standby letters of credit issued is not material.

Note 13:  Core Deposit Intangible Asset

ASC Topic 350, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other” requires that other acquired intangible assets with finite lives, such as purchased customer accounts, be amortized over their estimated lives.  Other intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of 10 years.  The Company periodically assesses whether events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of other intangible assets may be impaired.

Note 14: Share-Based Compensation
 
Stock Options
 
The Company's 1996 Stock Options and Incentive Plan (Plan) was approved by the stockholders at the 1996 annual meeting.  The Plan provides for the granting of options to acquire common stock to directors and key employees.  Option prices are equal or greater than the estimated fair market value of the common stock at the date of the grant.  In October 1996, the Company granted options to purchase 137,862 shares at $4.60 per share.  There are no remaining options to be issued under this plan.
 
The Company’s 2000 Stock Option and Incentive Plan was approved by the stockholders at the 2000 annual meeting.  The Plan provides for the granting of options to acquire common stock to directors and key employees.  Option prices are equal or greater than the estimated fair market value of the common stock at the date of the grant. The Plan provides for one-fifth of the options granted to be exercisable on each of the first five anniversaries of the date of grant. Under this plan, in August 2001 the Company granted options to purchase 99,975 shares at $6.29 per share.  There are 8,971 options eligible to be issued under this plan.

Stock Incentive Plan
 
In October 2004, the shareholders of the Company approved the 2004 Stock Incentive Plan.  Under this plan, 90,000 shares of common stock are available for issuance under a variety of awards.  An additional 40,146 shares were made available for issuance to settle past deferred compensation obligations.  This newer plan replaced the Director’s retirement plan that became effective in September 1995.  At the time of adoption, the directors had the option to reallocate their deferred compensation assets.

In May 2009, the Board of Directors voted to terminate the directors deferred compensation portion of the Plan.  Accordingly, 57,255 deferred shares were distributed to the respective directors in May 2010, and are now included as issued shares.  The remaining portion of the Plan continues to remain in effect.  As of June 30, 2010 there are 2,250 non-vested shares outstanding under this plan.

A summary of the status of the Company’s non-vested shares as of March 31, 2011 is presented below:

As of March 31, 2011 there was $1,000 of total unrecognized compensation costs related to non-vested share-based compensation.  The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 3 months.  At grant date, vesting of the shares was “cliff” vesting at the end of either a two or three year period.  Compensation expense totaling $1,000, $4,000, $2,000 and $22,000 has been recognized in the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively as a result of these awards.

Note 15:  Fair Value Measurements

ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” defined the concept of fair value and established a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP.  Fair value is defined as the price to sell an asset or to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between willing market participants as of the measurement date.  The statement also expands disclosures about financial instruments that are measured at fair value and eliminates the use of large position discounts for financial instruments quoted in active markets.  The disclosure’s emphasis is on the inputs used to measure fair value and the effect of the measurement on earnings for the period.  Fair value estimates, methods, and assumptions are set forth below for the Company's financial instruments as of March 31, 2011 and June 30, 2010.

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about financial instruments.  These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company's entire holdings of a particular financial instrument.  Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Company's financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments and other factors.  These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision.  Changes in assumptions could significantly affect estimates.

The carrying amount and estimated fair value of financial instruments is summarized as follows at:

Cash and Cash Equivalents - Due from Banks, Interest Bearings Deposits with Banks and Federal Funds Sold
The statement of financial condition carrying amounts for cash and due from banks, interest bearing deposits with banks and federal funds sold approximate the estimated fair values of such assets.

Securities Available for Sale
The fair value of securities available for sale (carried at fair value) are determined by obtaining quoted market prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges (Level 1), or matrix pricing (Level 2), which is a mathematical technique used widely in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted market prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted prices.

Loans Receivable
Loans receivable were segmented into portfolios with similar financial characteristics.  Loans were also segmented by type such as residential and nonresidential, construction and land, second mortgage loans, commercial, and consumer.  Each loan category was further segmented by fixed and adjustable rate interest terms.  The fair value of loans was calculated by discounting anticipated cash flows based on weighted average contractual maturity, weighted average coupon and market rates.

Impaired Loans
The Company considers loans to be impaired when it becomes probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement.  All non-accrual loans are considered impaired.  The measurement of impaired loans is based on the present value of the expected cash flows discounted at the historical effective interest rate, the market price of the loan, or the fair value of the underlying collateral.  Collateral values are estimated utilizing methods such as appraisals or broker price opinions and taking into consideration the timing of the valuation, the nature of the collateral and such other information as is deemed appropriate.  These assets are included as Level 3 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements.  The fair value consists of the loan balances of $5.1 million and $4.0 million less their specific valuation allowances of $891,000 and $668,000 as determined in accordance with ASC 310-10-35 (formerly SFAS 114, “Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan”) at March 31, 2011 and June 30, 2010, respectively.

Repossessed Real Estate and Other Assets (“REO”)
Real estate acquired through foreclosure is initially recorded at fair value less cost to sell which is determined typically by utilizing an outside appraiser.  Management evaluates the value of REO at least annually.  Any declines in value are reflected by establishing an REO valuation allowance with an offsetting charge to operating expense.  Any increases in the value of the property may be recognized only to the extent of the valuation allowance when the property value has recovered.  At March 31, 2011, the fair value consisted of $1.5 million.  During the nine months ended March 31, 2011 a $167,000 write-down was recorded on one property.  At June 30, 2010, the fair value consisted of REO balances of $2.9 million less their specific valuation allowances of $19,000.  For the year ended June 30, 2010 there were $1.0 million in write-downs on two properties.

Securities required by Law
The carrying amount of securities required by law approximates its fair value.

Accrued Interest Receivable
The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable approximates its fair value.

Deposits
The fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as non-interest bearing deposits, interest bearing NOW accounts and statement savings accounts, is equal to the carrying amounts.  The fair value of certificates of deposit was based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows.  The discount rate for certificates of deposit was estimated using market rates.

Long-Term Debt and Junior Subordinated Debentures
The fair value of long-term debt and junior subordinated debentures was based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows, using market rates.

Accrued Interest Payable
The carrying amount of accrued interest payable approximates its fair value.

Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments
The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business, including mortgage loan commitments, undisbursed lines of credit on commercial business loans and standby letters of credit. These instruments involve, to various degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated statements of financial condition.  The fair values of such commitments are immaterial.

The disclosure of fair value amounts does not include the fair values of any intangibles, including core deposit intangibles.  Core deposit intangibles represent the value attributable to total deposits based on an expected duration of customer relationships.

Fair Value Disclosures

In April 2009, the FASB issued ASC 820-10-65, “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly.”  ASC 820-10-65 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell the asset or transfer the liability in an orderly transaction (that is, not a forced liquidation or distressed sale) between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions.  ASC 820-10-65 provides additional guidance in determining when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability has significantly decreased.  ASC 820-10-65 also includes guidance on identifying circumstances when a transaction may not be considered orderly.

ASC 820-10-65 provides a list of factors that a reporting entity should evaluate to determine whether there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability in relation to normal market activity for the asset or liability.  When the reporting entity concludes there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability, further analysis of the information from that market is needed and significant adjustments to the related prices may be necessary to estimate fair value in accordance with GAAP.

This ASC 820-10-65 clarifies that when there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability, some transactions may not be orderly.  In those situations, the entity must evaluate the weight of the evidence to determine whether the transaction is orderly.  ASC 820-10-65 provides a list of circumstances that may indicate that a transaction is not orderly.  A transaction price that is not associated with an orderly transaction is given little, if any, weight when estimating fair value.

The Company has an established and documented process for determining fair values.  Fair value is based on quoted market prices, when available.  If listed prices or quotes are not available, fair value is based on fair value models that use market participant or independently sourced market data, which include discount rate, interest rate yield curves, prepayment speeds, bond ratings, credit risk, loss severities, default rates, and expected cash flow assumptions.  In addition, valuation adjustments may be made in the determination of fair value.  These fair value adjustments may include amounts to reflect counterparty credit quality, creditworthiness, liquidity, and other unobservable inputs that are applied consistently over time.  These adjustments are estimates and therefore, subject to management’s judgment, and at times, may be necessary to mitigate the possibility of error or revision in the estimate of the fair value provided by the model.  The Company has various controls in place to ensure that the valuations are appropriate, including review and approval of the valuation models, benchmarking, comparison to similar products, and reviews of actual cash settlements.  The methods described above may produce fair value calculations that may not be indicative of the net realizable value or reflective of future fair values.  While the Company believes its valuation methods are consistent with other financial institutions, the use of different methods or assumptions to determine fair values could result in different estimates of fair value.

ASC Topic 820 establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements.  The valuation hierarchy is based on the inputs used to value the particular asset or liability at the measurement date.  The three levels are defined as follows:
 
·
Level 1 – inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
 
·
Level 2 – inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices of identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
 
·
Level 3 – inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

Each financial instrument’s level assignment within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement for that particular category.

Note 16:  Reclassification

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation.  Such reclasses had no impact on the Company’s operations and stockholders’ equity.

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

General

The Company's results of operations depend primarily on its level of net interest income, which is the difference between interest earned on interest-earning assets, consisting primarily of loans, investment securities, mortgage-backed securities and other investments, and the interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities, consisting primarily of deposits and advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta.  The net interest income earned on interest-earning assets ("net interest margin") and the ratio of interest-earning assets to interest-bearing liabilities have a significant impact on net interest income.  The Company's net interest margin is affected by regulatory, economic and competitive factors that influence interest rates, loan and deposit flows.  The Company, like other financial institutions, is subject to interest rate risk to the degree that its interest-earning assets mature or reprice at different times, or on a different basis, than its interest-bearing liabilities.  The Company's results of operations are also significantly impacted by the amount of its non-interest income, including loan fees and service charges, and levels of non-interest expense, which consists principally of compensation and employee benefits, insurance premiums, professional fees, equipment expense, occupancy costs, advertising, data processing and other operating expenses.

The Company's operating results are significantly affected by general economic and competitive conditions, in particular, changes in market interest rates, government policies and actions taken by regulatory authorities.  Lending activities are influenced by general economic conditions, competition among lenders, the level of interest rates and the availability of funds.  Deposit flows and costs of funds are influenced by prevailing market rates of interest, primarily on competing investments, account maturities and the level of personal income and savings in the Company's market area.

Forward-Looking Statements

When used in this Form 10-Q, the words or phrases "will likely result," "are expected to," "will continue," "is anticipated," "estimate," "project" or similar expressions are intended to identify "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties including changes in economic conditions in the Company's market area, changes in policies by regulatory agencies, fluctuations in interest rates, demand for loans in the Company's market area, competition and the Risk Factors described in Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2010, that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical earnings and those presently anticipated or projected. The Company wishes to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. The Company wishes to advise readers that the factors listed above could affect the Company's financial performance and could cause the Company's actual results for future periods to differ materially from any opinions or statements expressed with respect to future periods in any current statements.

The Company does not undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligation, to publicly release the result of any revisions which may be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and follow general practices within the industry in which it operates.  Application of these principles requires management to make estimates, assumptions, and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates, assumptions, and judgments are based on information available as of the date of the consolidated financial statements; accordingly, as this information changes, the consolidated financial statements could reflect different estimates, assumptions and judgments.  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. These estimates, assumptions and judgments are necessary when financial instruments are required to be recorded at fair value or when the decline in the value of an asset carried on the statement of financial condition at historic cost requires an impairment write-down or a valuation reserve to be established.

The allowance for loan losses (“allowance”) represents an amount, that in the judgment of management, will be adequate to absorb probable losses on outstanding loans and leases that may become uncollectible.  The allowance represents an estimate made based upon two principles of accounting: (1) ASC Topic 855, “Accounting for Contingencies”, that requires losses to be accrued when their occurrence is probable and estimable, and (2) ASC 310-10-35, “Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan”, that requires losses be accrued when it is probable that the lender will not collect all principal and interest due under the original terms of the loan.  The adequacy of the allowance is determined through careful evaluation of the loan portfolio.  This determination is inherently subjective and requires significant estimates, including estimated losses on pools of homogeneous loans based on historical loss experience and consideration of the current economic environment that may be subject to change.  Loans and leases deemed uncollectible are charged against the allowance and recoveries of previously charged-off amounts are credited to it.  The level of the allowance is adjusted through the provision for loan losses that is recorded as a current period expense.

The methodology for assessing the appropriateness of the allowance includes a specific allowance, a formula allowance and a nonspecific allowance. The specific allowance is for risk rated credits on an individual basis. The formula allowance reflects historical losses by credit category. The nonspecific allowance captures losses whose impact on the portfolio have occurred but have yet to be recognized in either the specific allowance or the formula allowance.  The factors used in determining the nonspecific allowance include trends in delinquencies, trends in volumes and terms of loans, the size of loans relative to the allowance, concentration of credits, the quality of the risk identification system and credit administration and local and national economic trends.

In accordance with the provisions of ASC 310-10-35, the Company determines and recognizes impairment of certain loans.  A loan is determined to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement.  A loan is not considered impaired during a period of insignificant delay in payment if the Company expects to collect all amounts due, including past-due interest.  The Company generally considers a period of insignificant delay in payment to include delinquency up to and including 90 days.  ASC Topic 310 requires that impairment in a loan be measured at the present value of its expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, or at the loan's observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.

 
25

 

ASC Topic 310 is generally applicable for all loans except large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans that are evaluated collectively for impairment, including residential first and second mortgage loans and consumer installment loans.  Impaired loans are therefore generally comprised of commercial mortgage, real estate development, and certain restructured residential loans.  In addition, impaired loans are generally loans which management has placed on non-accrual status since loans are placed on non-accrual status on the earlier of the date that management determines that the collection of principal and/or interest is in doubt or the date that principal or interest is 90 days or more past-due.

Management believes that the allowance is adequate.  However, its determination requires significant judgment, and estimates of the probable losses in the loan and lease portfolio can vary significantly from amounts that actually occur.

Real estate acquired through foreclosure and other repossessed assets are initially recorded at the estimated fair value, net of estimated selling costs, and subsequently at the lower of carrying cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell.  Costs relating to holding such property are charged against income in the current period, while costs relating to improving such real estate are capitalized until a salable condition is reached.

Comparison of Financial Condition at March 31, 2011 and June 30, 2010

Patapsco Bancorp’s assets remained stable at $269.9 million at March 31, 2011 compared to $269.7 million at June 30, 2010.  Net loans declined $7.9 million or 4.0% to $189.3 million at March 31, 2011 from $197.2 million at June 30, 2010.  Growth in commercial mortgages of $8.2 million was more than offset by decreases in residential mortgage loans of $4.6 million, construction loans of $4.9 million, commercial leases of $2.5 million, consumer loans of $1.6 million and commercial business loans of $1.5 million.  Such decreases were due primarily to soft loan demand.  A good portion of the growth in commercial mortgages was due to construction loans converting to permanent status.

Securities available for sale increased $12.5 million to $38.0 million at March 31, 2011 from $25.5 million at June 30, 2010 as maturities of $17.5 million, sales of $2.9 million and pay-downs of the mortgage-backed securities of $4.2 million, as well as the decline in loan balances, were replaced by new purchases of investment securities of $37.7 million.

Real estate acquired through foreclosure decreased $1.4 million to $1.5 million as of March 31, 2011 as there were three properties totaling $1.5 million that sold at a $10,000 gain, $265,000 in additions, and a $167,000 write-down.

Total deposits grew $6.2 million, or 2.7%, to $235.0 million at March 31, 2011 from $228.8 million at June 30, 2010.  Interest-bearing deposits increased $8.4 million, or 3.9%, to $225.6 million at March 31, 2011 from $217.2 million at June 30, 2010.  Noninterest-bearing deposits declined $2.2 million to $9.4 million at March 31, 2011.  Long-term debt declined $5.1 million to $12.0 million at March 31, 2011 from $17.1 million at June 30, 2010.
 
Stockholders’ equity decreased by $903,000 from $17.4 million at June 30, 2010 to $16.5 million at March 31, 2011 primarily reflecting the loss during the current year-to-date period.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Quarter and Nine Months Ended March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2010

Net Income. Patapsco Bancorp recorded a net loss available to common shareholders of $474,000, or $0.24 per share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 compared to a net loss of $2.1 million, or $1.07 per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2010. The decrease in the net loss available to common shareholders in the current quarter resulted from the loan loss provision being $1.6 million lower than the provision in the same quarter in 2010 as well as an $829,000 decrease in the provision for losses on and cost of real estate acquired through foreclosure. The decrease in the provision for loan losses reflects a stabilization of the level of non-performing loans during the current quarter.  The decrease in the provision for losses on and cost of repossessed real estate and other assets is primarily due to a reserve for losses of $837,000 being set up in the previous year for an acquisition and development loan in real estate acquired through foreclosure.
 
For the nine months ended March 31, 2011, the Company recorded a net loss applicable to common shareholders of $909,000, a $1.2 million improvement compared to a loss of $2.1 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2010 for the same reasons cited above.

Net Interest Income.  Patapsco Bancorp’s net interest income increased by $34,000, or 1.6%, to $2.12 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 compared to $2.09 million for the same quarter in 2010.  The slight increase in net interest income during the comparable three-month period was due to an $11.3 million increase in the volume of interest earning assets to $255.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 versus $244.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 which was almost completely offset by a 10 basis point decline in the net interest margin to 3.36% in the quarter ended March 31, 2011 from 3.46% in the quarter ended March 31, 2010.  The decrease in the net interest margin was the result of the asset mix shifting from higher yielding loans to lower yielding investments due to a considerable drop in loan demand over the past year.
 
For the nine months ended March 31, 2011 net interest income declined $136,000 as the net interest margin decreased 14 basis points offset in part by the level of interest earning assets which grew $5.1 million.  The decline in the net interest margin was due to the same reasons cited above.
 
Interest Income.  Total interest income decreased by $282,000, or 8%, to $3.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 from $3.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2010.  Total interest income for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 decreased $1.0 million, or 10%, to $9.6 million from $10.6 million in the comparable period of the prior year.  The decreases in interest income during the comparable three and nine month periods were due to lower rates of interest earned, which more than offset the higher level of earning assets.  The impact of lower market interest rates in the current three and nine month periods had a negative effect on the yields on earning assets.  In addition, a shift in the mix of earning assets from loans to lower yielding investments and a decline in the yield on loans negatively affected the yield on average earning assets.
 
Interest income on loans receivable decreased by $372,000, or 12%, to $2.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 from $3.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2010.  For the nine months ended March 31, 2011, interest income on loans declined $1.2 million to $8.9 million from $10.1 million in the same period of the previous year.  The decreases in interest income on loans for both the three and nine months periods were due to lower yields as well as lower average loan balances.  The lower yields were due to the decline in market interest rates mentioned above.  In addition, the increase in the level of non-accrual loans also contributed to the declines in yields.  The lower loan volumes were due to a considerable drop in loan demand over the previous year.
 
Interest income on investment securities, including investments required by law, increased $80,000, or 54%, to $228,000 and by $166,000, or 35%, to $639,000 in the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 2011, respectively as the increase in volumes for the respective periods more than offset the declines in the yield over the same periods.

Interest income on federal funds sold and other investments increased $10,000 to $16,000, in the three month period ended March 31, 2011 due to an increase in average balances as well as in improvement in yields.  For the nine month period ended March 31, 2011, interest income on federal funds sold and other investments increased $25,000, or 119%, to $46,000 due to an increase in average balances as well as in improvement in yields.

Interest Expense. Total interest expense decreased by $316,000, or 25%, to $941,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 from $1.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2010.  Total interest expense decreased $885,000, or 21%, to $3.3 million for the nine month period ended March 31, 2011 from $4.1 million for the nine month period ended March 31, 2010.  The decline in interest expense during the comparable three and nine month periods was due to lower rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities which more than offset the higher level of balances.

Interest expense on deposits decreased by $218,000, or 23%, to $752,000 in the current quarter from $1.0 million in the previous year’s comparable quarter.  For the nine months ended March 31, 2011 interest expense on deposits decreased $628,000, or 20%, to $2.6 million.  The decrease in interest expense on deposits in both the quarterly and year to date periods was due to a decline in rates paid on deposits which had a larger impact than the growth in average deposit balances.  The lower rates paid on deposits reflect the lower rate environment in the current periods as well as a moderation of the competitive pressures that existed in the previous year.

Interest expense on long-term borrowings decreased $98,000, or 34%, to $189,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2011.  For the nine months ended March 31, 2011, interest expense on long-term borrowings decreased $251,000, or 27%, to $670,000.  The decreases in interest expense in the comparable three and nine month periods were due to lower average balances outstanding.

Average Balance, Interest and Average Yields and Rates

The following table sets forth certain information relating to the Company’s average interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and reflects the average yield on assets and cost of liabilities for the periods and at the dates indicated.  Dividing income or expense by the average daily balance of assets or liabilities, respectively, derives such yields and costs for the periods presented.  Average balances are derived from daily balances.

The table also presents information for the periods indicated with respect to the Company’s net interest margin, which is net interest income divided by the average balance of interest earning assets.  This in an important indicator of commercial bank profitability.  The net interest margin is affected by yields on interest-earning assets, the costs of interest-bearing liabilities and the relative amounts of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities.  Another indicator of the Company’s net interest income is the interest rate spread, or the difference between the average yield on interest earning assets and the average rate paid on interest bearing liabilities.

Provision for Loan Losses.  Provisions for loan losses are charged to earnings to maintain the total allowance for loan losses at a level considered adequate by management to provide for loan losses.  The components of the allowance for loan losses represent an estimation done pursuant to either ASC Topic 855 and ASC 310-10-35.  The adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is determined through a continuous review of the loan and lease portfolio and considers factors such as prior loss experience, type of collateral, industry standards, amount and type of past due loans in Patapsco Bancorp’s loan portfolio, current economic conditions, both national and local, and other factors unique to particular loans and leases in the portfolio.  Patapsco Bancorp’s management periodically monitors and adjusts its allowance for loan losses based upon its analysis of the loan portfolio.

The provision for loan losses was $1.0 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2011, compared to $2.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2010.  The decrease in the provision is primarily due to the moderation in the level of non-performing loans during the current quarter.   Patapsco Bancorp’s allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans was 2.18% as of March 31, 2011 versus 1.76% at June 30, 2010.  Patapsco Bancorp’s allowance for loan losses as a percentage of nonperforming loans was 33.7% at March 31, 2011 as compared to 36.3% at June 30, 2010.  Setting the allowance at this level takes into consideration that 95% of non-performing loans are collateralized by real estate or guaranteed by the SBA at March 31, 2011.  In consideration of the appropriate level for the allowance for loan losses, downward adjustments were made to values established by real estate appraisals, where warranted, taking into consideration the age of the appraisal and the nature of the collateral.  These adjusted appraisal values, which required management’s judgment, were used to develop estimated losses and related specific loss reserves within the allowance for loan losses.  Patapsco Bancorp has concluded, after a thorough analysis of the nonperforming loan portfolio, watch list loans, delinquencies and other factors, that the allowance is adequate at March 31, 2011.

At March 31, 2011, non-accrual construction loans totaled $2.2 million and consisted of a $386,000 condominium conversion project, $631,000 in residential construction and development loans and a $1.2 million commercial acquisition and development loan.  Non-accrual commercial real estate loans decreased $431,000 during the quarter ended March 31, 2011, due to partial charge-offs and foreclosures.  At March 31, 2011, all commercial real estate and construction loans are considered well securitized.  Non-accrual commercial loans/leases declined $427,000 during the current quarter and include a $3.3 million loan supporting a borrower’s various business interests including commercial properties.

Noninterest Income.  Patapsco Bancorp’s non-interest income consists of deposit fees, service charges, income from bank owned life insurance (“BOLI”) and gains.  Total non-interest income increased by $13,000, or 4.9%, to $281,000 in the three month period ended March 31, 2011 due to a $15,000 increase in deposit service fees and $23,000 more in gains on the sale of securities available for sale in the current quarter.  Total non-interest income for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 increased by $33,000, or 4.9%, to $706,000 as gains on the sale of securities available for sale increased $90,000 and were offset by declines in deposit service charges and other non-interest income.  The decline in deposit service fees was due to the impact of the implementation of Regulation E on overdraft fees.

Noninterest Expenses.  Total non-interest expenses decreased by $1.1 million, or 34.2%, to $2.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 from $3.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2010.  The provision for losses on and cost of repossessed real estate and other assets declined $829,000 to $153,000 in the current quarter from $982,000 in the previous year’s quarter due to an $837,000 allowance for losses established on a land, acquisition and development property acquired through foreclosure in the prior year’s quarter.  Compensation costs decreased $81,000, or 7.4%, as staff costs were lower due to the closing of a branch in December, 2009 as well as severance costs in the prior year’s quarter.  Professional fees were $46,000, or 23%, lower due to lower loan collection costs.  Data processing costs were $25,000, or 21%, lower in the quarter ended March 31, 2011 primarily due to the conversion of an ancillary application system in the previous year’s quarter.

For the nine months ended March 31, 2011, non-interest expenses decreased $1.1 million or 16.5% to $5.8 million from $6.9 million in the same period of the prior year.  Similar trends as in the current quarter were prevalent in the nine month period.  In addition, compensation and benefit costs were $266,000, or 8.3%, lower due to lower incentive costs.

Income Taxes.  Income tax benefit was $252,000 (or 40.1% of pre-tax loss) versus a tax benefit of $1.3 million (or 39.9% of pre-tax loss) for the three month periods ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  For the nine months ended March 31, 2011, the Company recorded a tax benefit of $421,000 (or 40.5% of pre-tax loss) versus a benefit of $1.3 million (or 40.1% of pre-tax loss) in the same period last year.  .

Liquidity and Capital Resources

An important component of the Company's asset/liability structure is the level of liquidity available to meet the needs of customers and creditors. The Company's Asset/Liability Management Committee has established general guidelines for the maintenance of prudent levels of liquidity. The Committee continually monitors the amount and source of available liquidity, the time to acquire it and its cost. Management of the Company seeks to maintain a relatively high level of liquidity in order to retain flexibility in terms of investment opportunities and deposit pricing. Because liquid assets generally provide lower rates of return, the Company's relatively high liquidity will, to a certain extent, result in lower rates of return on assets.

The Company's most liquid assets are cash on hand and due from banks, interest-bearing deposits and Federal funds sold, which are short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of less than three months that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash. The levels of these assets are dependent on the Company's operating, financing and investing activities during any given period. At March 31, 2011, the Company's cash on hand and due from banks and interest-bearing deposits totaled $25.6 million. In addition, the Company has approximately $38.0 million of investment securities classified as available for sale, $19.9 million of which are pledged as collateral at the Federal Reserve Bank’s discount window and $5.8 million of which are pledged as collateral for the Company’s federal funds line of credit.

The Company anticipates that it will have sufficient funds available to meet its current loan commitments of $15.1 million and unused lines of credit of $11.3 million. Certificates of deposit that are scheduled to mature in less than one year at March 31, 2011 totaled $40.4 million. Historically, a high percentage of maturing deposits have remained with the Company.

The Company's primary sources of funds are deposits and proceeds from maturing investment securities and mortgage-backed securities and principal and interest payments on loans. While maturities and scheduled amortization of mortgage-backed securities and loans are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions, competition and other factors.

The Company, as the holding company for the Bank, has an annual cash requirement of approximately $654,000 for the payment of preferred dividends, as well as, interest payments on the $5.0 million in junior subordinated debentures. The only source of funds for the holding company is dividends from the Bank.  The amount of dividends that can be paid to the holding company from the Bank is limited by the earnings of the Bank.  At March 31, 2011 the holding company had cash on hand and interest bearing deposits of $100,000.

On May 6, 2010, the Company’s Board of Directors determined to suspend regular quarterly cash dividends on the $6.0 million in Series A Preferred Stock and $300,000 in Series B Preferred Stock.  The Company’s Board of Directors took this action in consultation with the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond as required by recent regulatory policy guidance.  The Company currently has sufficient capital and liquidity to pay the scheduled dividends on the preferred stock; however, the Company believes this decision will better support the capital position of The Patapsco Bank, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

On May 6, 2010, the Company’s Board of Directors determined to suspend interest payments on the trust preferred securities.  The Company’s Board of Directors took this action in consultation with the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond as required by recent regulatory policy guidance.  The Company currently has sufficient capital and liquidity to pay the scheduled interest payments; however, the Company believes this decision will better support the capital position of The Patapsco Bank, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

Under the terms of its trust preferred securities and its Series A and Series B preferred stock, while it has deferred dividends on the trust preferred securities and suspended dividends on its Series A and Series B preferred stock, it generally may not declare or pay any dividends or distributions on, or repurchase, its common stock.

The Bank had $61.4 million in borrowing capacity with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta, with $12.0 million in borrowings outstanding, at March 31, 2011.  These borrowings are secured by the Bank’s stock in the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta and other eligible assets.  In addition, the Bank has $19.9 million in borrowing capacity at the Fed’s discount window at March 31, 2011.  And finally, the Bank has a $4.0 million line of credit, none of which was outstanding at March 31, 2011, with Pacific Coast Bankers Bank.

As discussed in Note 10 - Regulatory Capital Requirements, the Bank exceeded all regulatory minimum capital requirements.

Contingencies and Off-Balance Sheet Items

The Company is party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk including commitments to extend credit under both new facilities and under existing lines of credit.  Commitments to fund loans typically expire after 60 days, commercial lines of credit are subject to annual reviews and home equity lines of credit are generally for a term of 20 years.  These instruments contain, to varying degrees, credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.

Off-balance sheet financial instruments whose contract amounts represent credit and interest rate risk are summarized as follows:
