Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors
Charter Financial Corporation


We have audited the accompanying statement of assets acquired and liabilities assumed by CharterBank (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Charter Financial Corporation) pursuant to the Purchase and Assumption Agreement dated September 9, 2011.  This financial statement is the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this financial statement based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statement is free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.  Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the statement of assets acquired and liabilities assumed referred to above is presented fairly, in all material respects, as of September 9, 2011, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

FDIC-Assisted Acquisition of Certain Assets and Liabilities of The First National Bank of Florida
 
On September 9, 2011, CharterBank, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Charter Financial Corporation, entered into a Purchase and Assumption Agreement (Agreement) with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) to assume the deposits (excluding certain brokered deposits) and acquire certain assets of The First National Bank of Florida (FNB), a full service commercial bank headquartered in Milton, Florida.
 
FNB operated eight branch locations in the Florida Panhandle region.  Prior to acquisition accounting adjustments, CharterBank purchased $185,927,300 in loans and $24,943,178 of other real estate owned (OREO) and assumed $244,715,032 of deposits.  In addition, CharterBank also purchased cash and due from banks, investment securities and various other assets.  CharterBank also assumed various other liabilities.
 
As part of the Purchase and Assumption Agreement, CharterBank and the FDIC entered into two loss sharing agreements - one for single family loans, and one for all other loans and OREO. Under the loss sharing agreements, the FDIC will cover 80% of covered loan and OREO losses, with the exception of $900,259 (contractual balance) in consumer loans.  The term for loss sharing on residential real estate loans and OREO is ten years, while the term for loss sharing on non-residential real estate loans and OREO is five years in respect to losses and eight years for loss recoveries. The reimbursable losses from the FDIC are based on the book value of the relevant loan as determined by the FDIC at the date of the transaction, accrued interest on loans for up to 90 days, the carrying value of OREO by FNB and certain direct costs. New loans made after the date of the transaction are not covered by the loss sharing agreements.
 
The loss share agreements include a true-up payment in the event FNB’s losses do not reach the  FDIC’s total intrinsic loss estimate, as defined in the Agreement, of $59,483,125.  On October 25, 2019, the true-up measurement date, CharterBank is required to make a true-up payment to the FDIC equal to 50 percent of the excess, if any, of the following calculation:  A-(B+C+D), where (A) equals 20 percent of the Total Intrinsic Loss Estimate, or $11,896,625; (B) equals 20 percent of the Net Loss Amount; (C) equals 25 percent of the asset (discount) bid, or ($7,000,000); and (D) equals 3.5 percent of total Shared Loss Assets at Bank Closing or $7,380,467.  Current loss estimates indicate that no true-up payment will be paid to the FDIC during 2019.

Basis of Presentation
 
CharterBank has determined that the acquisition of the net assets of FNB constitutes a business acquisition as defined under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAP). As required under US GAAP, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at their fair values. In many cases the determination of these fair values requires management to make estimates about discount rates, market conditions, expected cash flows and other future events that are highly subjective in nature and subject to change.
 
Furthermore, accounting standards define fair value as 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 an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.  Accounting standards also establish a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.  The applicable standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:  Level 1:  Quoted prices (unadjusted) 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 reflect a company's own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

Following is a description of the methods used to determine the fair values of significant assets and liabilities.
 
Cash and due from banks
 
These items are very liquid and short-term in nature. The contractual amount of these assets approximates their fair values.
 
FHLB and FRB stock
 
The Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) and Federal Reserve Bank (“FRB”) require member banks to purchase their stock as a condition of membership and varies based on the level of FHLB advances and other factors. This stock is generally redeemable based on guidelines established by the FHLB and FRB and is presented at the expected redemption value.
 
Investment securities available for sale
 
Fair values for all securities are based on quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair value estimates are based on observable inputs including quoted market prices for similar instruments.  All acquired investment securities were designated as available for sale.
 
Loans
 
Fair values for loans are based on a discounted cash flow methodology (Level 3 pricing). Factors considered in determining the fair value of acquired loans include projected cash flows, type of loan and related collateral, classification status, fixed or variable interest rate, liquidity risk, term of loan and whether or not the loan was amortizing, current market conditions and discount rates.
 
The fair value of loans with evidence of credit deterioration (impaired loans) are recorded net of a non-accretable difference and, if appropriate, an accretable yield. The difference between contractually required payments at acquisition and the cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition is the non-accretable difference, which is included in the carrying amount of acquired loans. Subsequent decreases to the expected cash flows will generally result in a provision for credit losses. Subsequent significant increases in cash flows result in a reversal of the provision for credit losses to the extent of prior charges or a reclassification of the difference from non-accretable to accretable with a positive impact on accretion of interest income in future periods. Further, any excess of cash flows expected at acquisition over the estimated fair value is referred to as the accretable yield and is recognized into interest income over the remaining life of the loan when there is a reasonable expectation about the amount and timing of such cash flows.

Performing loans acquired in business combinations are accounted for using the contractual cash flows method of recognizing discount accretion based on the acquired loans’ contractual cash flows. Purchased performing loans are recorded at fair value.  The fair value discount is accreted as an adjustment to yield over the estimated lives of the loans. There is no allowance for loan losses established at the acquisition date for purchased performing loans. A provision for loan losses is recorded for any further deterioration in these loans subsequent to the acquisition.
 
Acquired loans covered under loss sharing agreements with the FDIC are reported exclusive of expected reimbursement cash flows from the FDIC.  Subsequent adjustments to the estimated recoverable value of covered loans result in a reduction of covered loans, and a charge to the provision for loan losses, and an increase in the FDIC receivable for the estimated amount to be reimbursed, with a corresponding amount recorded as a credit to the provision for loan losses.
 
In accordance with the loss sharing agreements with the FDIC, certain expenses relating to covered assets of external parties such as legal, property taxes, insurance, and the like may be reimbursed by the FDIC at 80%.  Such qualifying future expenditures on covered assets will result in an increase to the FDIC receivable.
 
Other real estate covered under loss sharing agreements
 
Foreclosed real estate is presented at estimated fair value, net of related costs of disposal (Level 3 pricing). Management used appraisals of properties to determine fair values and, in some instances, engaged outside consultants and applied additional discounts where appropriate for passage of time or, in certain cases, for subsequent events occurring after the appraisal date.  These additional discounts were applied based on various market studies performed internally and by outside consultants based on the type of property and geographic region to determine the average deterioration in real estate values in the Florida Gulf Coast region.
 
FDIC receivable for loss sharing agreements
 
The FDIC receivable for loss sharing agreements is measured separately from the related covered assets as it is not contractually embedded in the assets and is not transferable with the assets should the assets be sold. Fair value was estimated using projected cash flows related to the loss sharing agreements based on the expected reimbursements for losses and the applicable loss sharing percentages. These cash flows were discounted to reflect the estimated timing of the receipt of the loss sharing reimbursement from the FDIC (Level 3 pricing).
 
Intangible assets
 
Intangible assets include $1,134,697 of core deposit intangible that was established at acquisition and will be amortized on an accelerated basis over a six-year life.  Such fair value is based on the expected net cash flows attributable to core deposits assumed (Level 3 pricing).

Deposits
 
Under the terms of the Agreement, CharterBank had the right to immediately adjust various terms, including interest rates, on deposit liabilities. Based on the impact of these decisions, the carrying value of these deposits is considered to be a reasonable estimate of fair value (Level 3 pricing).
 
Deferred tax liability
 
The deferred tax liability of $420,919 relates to the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in this transaction.

Explanation of fair value adjustments
 
 
(a) –
Adjustment reflects the initial wire received from the FDIC adjusted for overpayment by the FDIC on the acquisition date.
 
 
(b) –
Adjustment reflects fair value adjustments based on the Bank’s evaluation of the acquired investment securities portfolio.
 
 
(c) -
Adjustment reflects fair value adjustments based on the Bank’s evaluation of the acquired loan portfolio.  The fair value adjustment includes adjustments for estimated credit losses, liquidity and servicing costs.
 
 
(d) –
Adjustment reflects the estimated other real estate owned losses based on the Bank’s evaluation of the acquired other real estate owned portfolio.
 
 
(e) –
Adjustment reflects the estimated fair value of payments the Bank will receive from the FDIC under loss sharing agreements.  The receivable was recorded at present value of the estimated cash flows using an average discount rate of approximately two percent.
 
 
(f) –
Adjustment reflects fair value adjustments to record the estimated core deposit intangible.
 
 
(g) –
Adjustment reflects fair value adjustments to record certain other assets acquired in this transaction.
 
 
(h) –
Amount represents the excess of assets acquired over liabilities assumed and since the asset discount bid by CharterBank of $28 million exceeded this amount, the difference resulted in a  cash settlement with the FDIC on the acquisition date.
 
 
(i) –
Adjustment reflects fair value adjustments to record certain other liabilities in this transaction.
 
 
(j) –
Adjustment reflects differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

Premises and Equipment
 
CharterBank did not acquire the real estate, banking facilities, furniture or equipment of FNB as part of the Agreement. Under the terms of the Agreement, all equipment being utilized is leased from the FDIC on a month-to-month basis.
 
Under the terms of the Agreement, CharterBank has the option to notify the FDIC of its intent to assume leases and to acquire the furniture and equipment of The First National Bank of Florida ("FNB premises and equipment") from the FDIC at appraised fair market value as of the acquisition date.  Prior to the expiration of this option, CharterBank will notify the FDIC of its intention to purchase certain FNB premises and equipment. Subsequently CharterBank notified the FDIC and vacated four branches and has negotiated new leases on four branches.

Loans covered under loss sharing agreements with the FDIC (Covered Loans) are also reported in loans exclusive of the expected reimbursement from the FDIC.  Included in the above table are $900,259 (contractual balance) of acquired consumer loans which are not covered under loss sharing agreements.  Loans are initially recorded at fair value at the acquisition date. At the acquisition date, CharterBank estimated the fair value of the loan portfolio at $121,463,506.
 
Prospective losses incurred on loans are eligible for partial reimbursement by the FDIC. Subsequent decreases in the amount expected to be collected result in a provision for credit losses, an increase in the allowance for loan and lease losses, and a proportional adjustment to the FDIC receivable for the estimated amount to be reimbursed. Subsequent significant increases in the amount expected to be collected result in the reversal of any previously-recorded provision for credit losses and related allowance for loan and lease losses and adjustments to the FDIC receivable, or accretion of certain fair value amounts into interest income in future periods if no provision for credit losses had been recorded.
 
Loans more than 90 days past due with respect to contractual interest or principal, unless they are well secured and in the process of collection, and other loans on which full recovery of principal or interest is in doubt, are placed on nonaccrual status.  Contractual interest previously accrued on loans placed on nonaccrual status is charged against interest income, and the FDIC receivable would be adjusted by the amount of any estimated reimbursement. Payments received are applied against the principal balance of the loans until such time as full collection of the remaining recorded balance is expected. Additional interest payments received after that time are recorded as interest income on a cash basis.
 
Loans acquired from FNB are and will continue to be subject to ongoing credit review. If and when credit deterioration is noted subsequent to the September 9, 2011 acquisition date, loss estimates will be included in the calculation of the allowance for loan and lease losses, and provision for credit losses. The portion that is recoverable under the FDIC loss sharing agreements will result in an adjustment to the FDIC receivable for loss sharing agreements with an offsetting entry to the provision for loan losses.

Credit Quality Indicators. As part of the ongoing monitoring of the credit quality of the Company’s loan portfolio for both loans covered and not covered by loss sharing agreements, management tracks certain credit quality indicators including the level of classified loans, net charge-offs, non-performing loans (see details above) and the general economic conditions in its market areas.
 
The Company utilizes a risk grading matrix to assign a risk grade to each of its loans. Loans are graded on a scale of 1 to 8. A description of the general characteristics of the 8 risk grade factors is as follows:
 
Grade 1: Virtual Absence of Credit Risk (Pass 1) - Loans graded 1 are substantially risk-free or have limited risk. They are characterized by loans to borrowers with unquestionable financial strength and a long history of solid earnings performance. Loans to borrowers collateralized by cash or equivalent liquidity may be included here. Loans secured, by readily marketable collateral may also be graded 1 provided the relationship meets all other characteristics of the grade.

Grade 2: Minimal Credit Risk (Pass 2) - Loans graded 2 represent above average borrowing relationships, generally with local borrowers. Such loans will have clear, demonstrative sources of repayment, financially sound guarantors, and adequate collateral.
 
Grade 3: Less Than Average Credit Risk (Pass 3) - Loans graded 3 are of average credit quality, are properly structured and documented and require only normal supervision. Financial data is current and document adequate revenue, cash flow, and satisfactory payment history to indicate that financial condition is satisfactory. Unsecured loans are normally for a specific purpose and short term. Secured loans have properly margined collateral. Repayment terms are realistic, clearly defined and based upon a primary, identifiable source of repayment. All grade 3 loans meet the Company’s lending guidelines.
 
Grade 4: Acceptable With Average Risk (Pass 4) - Loans graded 4 represent loans where a borrower’s character, capacity, credit or collateral may be a concern. Grade 4 loans will be performing credits and will not necessarily represent weakness unless that area of weakness remains unresolved. Loans most commonly graded 4 will likely include loans with technical exceptions, loans outside of policy parameters without justification for exception and loans with collateral imperfections. Loans in this category, while acceptable, generally warrant close monitoring. Resolution of questionable areas will generally result in an upgrade or downgrade.
 
Grade 5: Special Mention - (Greater Than Normal Credit Risk) - Loans graded 5 have potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or the bank’s credit position at a future date. Grade 5 loans should include loans where repayment is highly probable, but timeliness of repayment is uncertain due to unfavorable developments. Special Mention assets are not adversely classified and do not expose the bank to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification. Assets that could be included in this category include loans that have developed credit weaknesses since origination as well as those that were originated with such weaknesses. Special Mention should not be used to identify an asset that has as its sole weakness credit data exceptions or collateral documentation exceptions that are not material to the timely repayment of the asset.
 
Grade 6: Substandard - (Excessive Credit Risk) - Grade 6 loans are inadequately protected by current sound worth and paying capacity of the borrower or of collateral pledged. Substandard assets have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. Loans in this category are characterized by the distinct probability that the bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
 
Grade 7: Doubtful - (Potential Loss) - Loans graded 7 possess all of the characteristics of Substandard loans with the addition that full collection is improbable on the basis of existing facts, values, and conditions. Possibility of loss is high; however, due to important and reasonably specific pending factors that may work to the loans’ advantage, a precise indication of estimated loss is deferred until a more exact status can be determined. The Doubtful classification is not to be used to defer the full recognition of an expected loss.
 
Grade 8: Loss - That portion of an asset classified Loss is considered un-collectible and of such little value that its continuance as an asset, without establishment of a specific valuation allowance or charge-off is not warranted. This classification does not necessarily mean that an asset has absolutely no recovery or salvage value; but rather, it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off a basically worthless asset (or portion) even though partial recovery may be affected in the future. An asset may be subject to a split classification whereby two or more portions of the same asset are given separate classifications.

Contingencies
 
Charter Financial Corporation, CharterBank (as successor to FNB) and various subsidiaries of Charter Financial Corporation and CharterBank have been named as defendants in various legal actions arising from normal business activities in which damages in various amounts are claimed related to covered assets from the FNB transaction. As part of the Purchase and Assumption Agreement, all covered asset-related offensive and defensive litigation liabilities are covered under the loss sharing agreements and all other defensive litigation and any class actions are retained by the FDIC as Receiver.  Although the amount of any ultimate liability with respect to those other matters cannot be determined, in the opinion of management, any such liability will not have a material effect on Charter Financial Corporation’s consolidated financial statements.
