Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Audit Committee, Board of Directors and Stockholders

Blue Valley Ban Corp.

Overland Park, Kansas

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of Blue Valley Ban Corp. as of March 31, 2012, and the related condensed consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011. These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2011 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein), and in our report dated March 22, 2012 we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2011 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

This update is intended to increase the prominence of other comprehensive income in the financial statements. The main provision of this update provides that an entity that reports items of other comprehensive income has the option to present comprehensive income in either one or two consecutive financial statements. In the single statement approach the entity must present the components of net income and total net income, the components of other comprehensive income and total other comprehensive income, and a total for comprehensive income. In the two-statement approach, an entity must present the components of net income and total net income in the first statement. That statement must be immediately followed by a financial statement that presents the components of other comprehensive income, a total for other comprehensive income, and a total for comprehensive income. The option in current GAAP that permits the presentation of other comprehensive income in the statement of changes in equity has been eliminated. The amendments for this update are to be applied retrospectively. For public entities, the amendments were effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this update had no adverse impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

On December 23, 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-12, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05. This update defers the specific requirement to present items that are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income to net income separately with their respective components of net income and other comprehensive income. This update does not defer the requirement to report comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement or in two separate but consecutive financial statements. For public entities, the amendments were effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this update had no adverse impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Note 3: Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share represents income available to common stockholders divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each year. Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflects additional potential common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued, as well as any adjustment to income that would result from the assumed issuance. The computation of per share earnings (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 is as follows:

(B) Warrants to purchase 111,083 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $29.37 per share were outstanding at March 31, 2012 and 2011, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the warrant’s exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common shares, thus making the warrants anti-dilutive. Stock options to purchase 10,575 and 24,375 shares of common stock were outstanding at March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the option’s exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common shares, thus making the options anti-dilutive.

Income available for common stockholders is reduced by dividends declared in the period on preferred stock (whether or not they are paid) and the accretion of the warrants.

Note 4: Available-for-Sale Securities (Continued)

 

There were no gross gains or losses realized for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, from sales of available-for-sale securities.

Certain investments in debt and marketable equity securities are reported in the financial statements at an amount less than their historical cost. Total fair value of these investments at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, was $9,981,000 and $19,973,000, which is approximately 15.0% and 32.3%, respectively, of the Company’s available-for-sale investment portfolio. These declines in fair value resulted primarily from recent increases in market interest rates. Based on evaluation of available information and evidence, particularly recent volatility in market yields on debt securities, management believes the declines in the fair value for these securities are temporary.

Unrealized losses and fair value as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, aggregated by investment type and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position are as follows:

Note 4: Available-for-Sale Securities (Continued)

 

The unrealized losses on the Company’s investments in direct obligations of U.S. government sponsored agencies were caused by interest rate increases. The contractual terms of those investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized cost bases of the investments. Because the Company does not intend to sell the investments and it is not more likely than not the Company will be required to sell the investments before the recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2012.

The Company enters into sales of securities under agreements to repurchase. The amounts deposited under these agreements represent short-term debt and are reflected as a liability in the consolidated balance sheets. The securities underlying the agreements are book-entry securities. During the period, securities held in safekeeping were pledged to the depositors under a written custodial agreement that explicitly recognizes the depositors’ interest in the securities. At March 31, 2012, or at any month end during the period, no material amount of agreements to repurchase securities sold was outstanding with any individual entity. Information on sales of securities under agreements to repurchase is as follows:

Note 5: Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses (Continued)

 

The following table presents the credit risk profile of the Company’s loan portfolio based on the rating category and payment activity as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011. These categories are defined as follows:

Pass – loans that exhibit acceptable financial performance, cash flow, leverage and the probability of default is considered low.

Classified – loans are inadequately protected by the current payment capacity of the obligor or by the collateral pledged. These loans are characterized by the distinct probability that the Company will sustain some loss or added expenses if the deficiencies are not corrected.

A loan is considered impaired, in accordance with the impairment accounting guidance (ASC 310-10-35-16), when based on current information and events, it is probable the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal and interest due from the borrower in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impaired loans include non-performing loans, but also include loans modified in troubled debt restructurings where concessions have been granted to borrowers experiencing financial difficulties. These concessions could include a reduction in the interest rate on the loan, payment extensions, forgiveness of principal, forbearance or other actions intended to maximize collection.

A $2,569,000 modification fee was associated with paying off the original FHLB advances which is amortized as an adjustment of interest expense over the remaining term of the new FHLB advances using the straight line method. The unamortized modification fee at March 31, 2012 was approximately $1,485,000. This transaction reduced the effective interest rate, as well as modified the maturity date on these borrowings.

 

  (B) Due in 2033; interest only at LIBOR + 3.25% (3.80% at March 31, 2012 and 3.68% at December 31, 2011) due quarterly; fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Company on a subordinated basis to the extent that the funds are held by the Trust. BVBC Capital Trust II issued and sold $7,500,000 in Preferred Securities to third parties and $232,000 of Common Securities to the Company. As of 2008, the Company may prepay the subordinated debentures, in whole or in part, at their face value plus accrued interest.

 

  (C) Due in 2035; interest only at LIBOR + 1.60% (2.07% at March 31, 2012 and 2.18% at December 31, 2011) due quarterly; fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Company on a subordinated basis to the extent that the funds are held by the Trust. Subordinated to the trust preferred securities (B) due in 2033. BVBC Capital Trust III issued and sold $11,500,000 in Preferred Securities to third parties and $356,000 in Common Securities to the Company. As of 2010, the Company may prepay the subordinated debentures, in whole or in part, at their face value plus accrued interest.

Note 7: Long-Term Debt (Continued)

At the request of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City, quarterly payments are being deferred on the Company’s outstanding trust preferred securities. Under the governing documents of BVBC Capital Trust II and III, the quarterly payments due since April 24, 2009 for BVBC Capital Trust II and March 31, 2009 for BVBC Capital Trust III were deferred. The Company has the right to declare such a deferral for up to 20 consecutive quarterly periods and deferral may only be declared as long as the Company is not then in default under the provisions of the Amended and Restated Trust Agreement. During the deferral period, interest on the indebtedness continues to accrue and the unpaid interest is compounded. For BVBC Capital Trust III, the Company must also accrue additional interest that is equal to the three month LIBOR rate plus 1.60% during the deferral period. All accrued interest and compounded interest must be paid at the end of the deferral period.

For both BVBC Capital Trust II and BVBC Capital Trust III, as long as the deferral period continues, the Company is prohibited from: (i) declaring or paying any dividend on any of its capital stock, which would include both its common stock and the outstanding preferred stock issued to the United States Department of Treasury (the “Treasury”), or (ii) making any payment on any debt security that is ranked pari passu with the debt securities issued by the respective trusts. Because the Preferred Shares issued under the U.S. Treasury’s Capital Purchase Plan (the “CPP”) are subordinate to the trust preferred securities, the Company will be restricted from paying dividends on these Preferred Shares until such time as all trust preferred dividends have been brought current.

Aggregate annual maturities of long-term debt at March 31, 2012 are as follows:

Note 8: Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with income tax accounting guidance (ASC 740, Income Taxes). The income tax accounting guidance results in two components of income tax expense: current and deferred. Current income tax expense reflects taxes to be paid or refunded for the current period by applying the provisions of the enacted tax law to the taxable income or excess of deductions over revenues. The Company determines deferred income taxes using the liability (or balance sheet) method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is based on the tax effects of the differences between the book and tax basis of assets and liabilities, and enacted changes in tax rates and laws are recognized in the period in which they occur. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of evidence available, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. The valuation allowance is a contra asset account that reduces the deferred tax asset to its expected realizable value and is based on management’s expectation of future taxable income. As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company had a valuation allowance of $12,703,000, and $12,600,000, respectively, which covered all but $965,000 and $911,000 of the Company’s gross deferred tax asset of $13,668,000 and $13,511,000 at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

Note 9: Derivative Instruments

The Company has commitments outstanding to extend credit on residential mortgages that have not closed prior to the end of the period. As the Company enters into commitments to originate these loans, it also enters into commitments to sell the loans in the secondary market on a best-efforts basis. The Company acquires such commitments to reduce interest rate risk on mortgage loans in the process of origination and mortgage loans held for sale. These commitments to originate or sell loans on a best efforts basis are considered derivative instruments under ASC 815. This standard requires the Company to recognize all derivative instruments in the balance sheet and to measure those instruments at fair value. As a result of measuring the fair value of the commitments to originate loans, the Company recorded a decrease of $4,000 in other assets, an increase in other liabilities of $1,000 and a decrease in other income of $5,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2012. The Company recorded an increase in other assets of $1,000, a decrease in other liabilities of $7,000, and an increase in other income of $8,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2011.

Additionally, the Company has commitments to sell loans that have closed prior to the end of the period on a best efforts basis. Due to the mark to market adjustment on commitments to sell loans held for sale the Company recorded a decrease in other assets of $55,000, an increase in other liabilities of $1,000 and a decrease in other income of $56,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2012. The Company recorded a decrease in other assets of $362,000 and a decrease in other income of $362,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2011.

Note 9: Derivative Instruments (Continued)

 

Total mortgage loans in the process of origination amounted to $1,636,000 at March 31, 2012 and $1,410,000 at December 31, 2011. Related forward commitments to sell mortgage loans amounted to approximately $3,233,000 at March 31, 2012 and $7,096,000 at December 31, 2011.

The balance of derivative instruments related to commitments to originate and sell loans at March 31, 2012, is disclosed in Note 11, Disclosures About Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities.

Note 10: Fair Value Option

The Company has elected to measure loans held for sale at fair value in accordance with ASC 825, Fair Value Option. This standard permits an entity to choose to measure many financial instruments and other items at fair value. An entity will report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings at each reporting date. Loans held for sale is made up entirely of mortgage loans held for immediate sale in the secondary market with servicing released. These loans are sold prior to origination at a contracted price to an outside investor on a best efforts basis and remain on the Company’s balance sheet for a short period of time (typically 30 to 60 days). It is management’s opinion given the short-term nature of these loans, that fair value provides a reasonable measure of the economic value of these assets. In addition, carrying such loans at fair value eliminates some measure of volatility created by the timing of sales proceeds from outside investors, which typically occur in the month following origination.

The difference between the aggregate fair value and the aggregate unpaid principal balance of loans held for sale was a gain of $1,000 at March 31, 2012. The net loss from fair value changes included in loans held for sale fee income was $33,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and a net gain of $146,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. Interest income on loans held for sale is included in interest and fees on loans in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations. See Note 11 for additional disclosures regarding fair value of mortgage loans held for sale.

Note 11: Disclosures About Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements, defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Topic 820 also specifies 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 standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

 

  Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

  Level 2 Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

 

  Level 3 Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies and inputs used for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and recognized in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet, as well as the general classification of such assets and liabilities pursuant to the valuation hierarchy.

Available-for-Sale Securities

Where quoted market prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 securities include exchange traded equities. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or discounted cash flows. Level 2 securities include U.S. Government sponsored agencies. In certain cases where Level 1 or Level 2 inputs are not available, securities are classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy and include other less liquid securities.

Mortgage Loans Held for Sale

Mortgage loans held for sale are valued using market prices for loans with similar characteristics. This measurement is classified as Level 2 within the hierarchy.

Commitments to Originate Loans and Forward Sales Commitments

The fair value of commitments to originate loans and the fair value of forward sales commitments are estimated using a valuation model which considers differences between quoted prices for loans with similar characteristics in the secondary market and the committed rates. The valuation model includes assumptions which adjust the price for the likelihood that the commitment will ultimately result in a closed loan. These measurements are significant unobservable inputs and are classified as Level 3 within the hierarchy.

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies and inputs used for assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis and recognized in the accompanying balance sheet, as well as the general classification of such assets pursuant to the valuation hierarchy. For assets classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, the process used to develop the reported fair value is described below.

Impaired Loans (Collateral Dependent)

Loans for which it is probable that the Company will not collect all principal and interest due according to the contractual terms are measured for impairment. The estimated fair value of collateral-dependent impaired loans is based on the appraised fair value of the collateral, less estimated cost to sell. Collateral-dependent impaired loans are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

The Company considers the appraisal or evaluation as the starting point for determining fair value and then considers other factors and events in the environment that may affect the fair value. Collateral evaluations on collateral-dependent loans are monitored on an ongoing basis. The collateral values are reduced by discounts to consider lack of marketability and estimated cost to sell if repayment or satisfaction of the loan is dependent on the sale of the collateral. These discounts and estimates are developed by the Company based on comparison to historical results and other factors.

Note 11: Disclosures About Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities (Continued)

 

Foreclosed Assets Held for Sale

Foreclosed assets held for sale are carried at the lower of fair value at acquisition date or current estimated fair value, less estimated costs to sell when the real estate is acquired. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed and the assets are recorded at the lower of carrying amount or estimated fair value less cost to sell. Estimated fair value of foreclosed assets held for sale is based on outside third party appraisals. Foreclosed assets held for sale are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Appraisals of foreclosed assets held for sale are obtained when the real estate is acquired and annually thereafter. Appraisals are reviewed for accuracy and consistency. Appraisers are selected from the list of approved appraisers maintained by management.

The following table presents the fair value measurement at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis during the respective period:

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of all other financial instruments recognized in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets at amounts other than fair value.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For these short-term instruments, the carrying amount approximates fair value.

Loans

The fair value of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the market rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. Loans with similar characteristics were aggregated for purposes of the calculations. The carrying amount of accrued interest approximates its fair value.

Federal Home Loan Bank Stock, Federal Reserve Bank Stock and Other Securities

The carrying amounts for these securities approximate their fair value.

Deposits

Deposits include demand deposits, savings accounts, NOW accounts and certain money market deposits. The carrying amount of these deposits approximates fair value. The fair value of fixed maturity time deposits is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. The carrying amount of accrued interest payable approximates its fair value.

Securities Sold Under Agreement to Repurchase and Other Interest-Bearing Liabilities

For these short-term instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Note 11: Disclosures About Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities (Continued)

 

Long-Term Debt

Rates currently available to the Company for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities are used to estimate fair value of existing debt. Fair value of long-term debt is based on quoted market prices or dealer prices for the identical liability when traded as an asset in an active market. If a quoted market price is not available, an expected present value technique is used to estimate fair value.

Commitments to Extend Credit, Letters of Credit and Lines of Credit

The fair value of commitments to originate loans is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the counterparties. For fixed rate loan commitments, fair value also considers the difference between current levels of interest rates and the committed rates. The fair value of letters of credit and lines of credit is based on fees currently charged for similar agreements or on the estimated cost to terminate or otherwise settle the obligations with the counterparties at the reporting date.

Note 12: Dividends on Preferred Shares

At the request of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City, the Company notified the United States Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury”) of its intention to defer the quarterly dividend payments on the Preferred Shares due to the Treasury since May 15, 2009. As part of the Capital Purchase Plan, the Company entered into a letter agreement with the Treasury on December 5, 2008, which includes a Securities Purchase Agreement-Standard Terms. As part of the agreement, dividends compound if they accrue and are not paid. Failure by the Company to pay the Preferred Share dividend is not an event of default. However, a failure to pay a total of six Preferred Share dividends, whether or not consecutive, gives the holders of the Preferred Shares the right to elect two directors to the Company’s Board of Directors. That right would continue until the Company pays all dividends in arrears. As of March 31, 2012, the Company has deferred 12 Preferred Share dividend payments. At this time, the Treasury has not elected any directors to serve on the Company’s Board of Directors; however, the Treasury has assigned an observer to attend the Company’s board meetings. The Company has accrued for the dividends and interest and has every intention to bring the obligation current as soon as permitted. As of March 31, 2012, the Company had accrued $3,518,000 for dividends and interest on outstanding Preferred Shares.

General

Critical Accounting Policies

Our critical accounting policies are largely prescribed by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. After a review of our policies, we determined that accounting for the allowance for loan losses and income taxes are deemed critical accounting policies because of the valuation techniques used and the sensitivity of certain financial statement amounts to the methods, as well as the assumptions and estimates underlying these policies. Accounting for these critical areas requires subjective and complex judgments that could be subject to revision as new information becomes available. Further description of our critical accounting policies can be found in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

Results of Operations

Three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011. Net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2012, was $315,000 compared to net loss of $429,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2011, representing an improvement of $114,000, or 26.57%. The loss per share on a diluted basis was $0.21 for the three months ended March 31, 2012, which represented an improvement of 16.00%, compared to diluted loss per share of $0.25 in the same period of 2011. The Company’s annualized returns on average assets and average stockholders’ equity for the three month period ended March 31, 2012 were negative 0.19% and negative 12.74%, compared to negative 0.25% and 8.13%, respectively, for the same period in 2011.

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

 

The Company experienced improvement in net interest income by $143,000, or 3.48%, to $4.3 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2012, as compared to $4.1 million earned during the same period in 2011. The increase was due to a decline in the interest expense, which decreased $570,000, or 22.44%, from the same period in 2011, as a result of a decrease in rates paid on deposits as market rates have declined and a decline in the average balance of time deposits. The Company had funds from various time deposit promotions mature in 2011, and as those higher rate time deposits matured they were renewed at lower market rates. As the renewal rate for these deposits was much lower, some deposits were not renewed. This increase in net interest income was a result of the decrease in interest expense described above partially offset by the decline in interest income by $427,000, or 6.42%, as compared to the same period in 2011. The lower interest income was the result of a decline in the average outstanding loan balances by $43.8 million, or 9.08%, for the three month period ended March 31, 2012, as compared to the prior year period. The decline in outstanding loan balances was the result of loan payoffs and lower loan origination volume due to the current economic environment and loan foreclosures.

The provision for loan losses was $450,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2012, compared to no provision for the same period in the prior year. The provision for this period was the result of the elimination of a larger commercial credit at a discount during March 2012. While the Company experienced an increase in the provision for loan losses during the quarter related to commercial loans, the Company has experienced improvement in the loan portfolio with a reduction in non-performing loans by $1.9 million, or 17.09%, since December 31, 2011, as management continues to work on improving the credit quality of the loan portfolio.

Non-interest income increased $206,000 to $1.6 million, or 14.67%, for the three month period ended March 31, 2012, as compared to the same period in 2011. The increase was the result of an increase in other service charges during the three month period ended March 31, 2012 of $118,000, or 23.60%, as compared to the same period in 2011. Other service charges includes income from trust services, investment brokerage, merchant bankcard processing and debit card processing. The increase in other service charges was attributed to increased income generated from signature based debit card transactions associated with our Performance and Ultimate Checking products and increased activity from trust and investment brokerage services. Other income increased $66,000, or 51.97%, due to the effect of recording the net fair value of certain mortgage loan-related commitments. The net fair value of certain mortgage loan-related commitments recorded for the three month period ended March 31, 2012 was a loss of $61,000 compared to a loss of $354,000 for the same period in 2011. This increase in other income was offset by lower gains realized on the sale of foreclosed assets held for sale, as compared to the same period in the 2011.

Non-interest expense declined $458,000, or 7.40%, for the three month period ended March 31, 2012, as compared to the same period in the prior year. The decline in non-interest expense was attributed to lower salaries and employee benefits by $241,000, or 8.54%, as compared to the prior year period, as a result of a reduction in staffing during the third quarter of 2011. Foreclosed assets expense declined $132,000, or 17.81%, for the three months ended March 31, 2012, as compared to the same period in 2011, due to the Company recording a lower provision for foreclosed assets held for sale for the first quarter of 2012 of $128,000, compared to a provision for foreclosed assets held for sale of $361,000 for the first quarter of 2011, a decrease of $233,000, or 64.54%. This was offset by a higher loss realized on the sale of foreclosed assets held for sale during the first quarter

of 2012, as compared to the same period in 2011. Other operating expenses have declined $69,000, or 3.52%, for the three months ended March 31, 2012, as compared to the same period in 2011, due to lower legal fees and Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) deposit assessment. The FDIC deposit assessment is lower as a result of a decrease in assessment base and a change in assessment rates effective April 1, 2011. In addition, net occupancy expense decreased by $16,000, or 2.41%, compared to the same period in 2011.

Net Interest Income

Three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011. Fully tax equivalent (FTE) net interest income for the three month period ended March 31, 2012, was $4.3 million, an increase of $143,000, or 3.48%, from $4.1 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2011.

FTE interest income for the current year first quarter was $6.2 million, a decrease of $427,000, or 6.42%, from $6.6 million in the prior year first quarter. This decrease was primarily a result of a decline in average balances on earning assets, specifically lower average balances on outstanding loans and available-for-sale securities. The overall yield on average earning assets declined two basis points to 4.34% during the three month period ending March 31, 2012, compared to 4.36% during the same period in 2011. Interest and fees on loans declined $472,000, or 7.46%, for the three month period ended March 31, 2012, as compared to the prior year period, as a result of the decline in the average outstanding balance of loans by $43.8 million, or 9.08%, due to loan payoffs, lower loan origination volume due to the current economic environment and loan foreclosures. Interest income on available-for-sale securities increased $24,000, or 9.84%, for the three months ended March 31, 2012, as compared to the same period in 2011. This increase was the result of the Company replacing some of the securities called during 2011 with higher yielding securities.

Interest expense for the current year first quarter was $2.0 million, a decrease of $570,000, or 22.44%, from $2.5 million in the prior year first quarter. The decline in interest expense resulted from a decrease in the rate paid on average interest-bearing liabilities resulting from the impact of the lower market interest rates on interest-bearing demand accounts, savings and money market deposits and time deposits. The rate paid on total average interest-bearing liabilities decreased to 1.56% for the three month period ending March 31, 2012, compared to 1.91% in the same period of 2011, a decrease of 35 basis points. Total average interest-bearing liabilities decreased $31.9 million, or 5.91%, to $507.4 million during the first quarter of 2012, compared to $539.3 million during the prior year period. The decrease was primarily attributed to a decrease in time deposits. Average time deposits declined $39.8 million, or 18.98%, as a result of the several higher rate time deposit promotions that matured in 2011 and were renewed at a lower rate. As the renewal rate for these deposits was much lower, some time deposits were not renewed. Average interest-bearing demand accounts has declined $2.7 million, or 2.03%, for the three months ended March 31, 2012, as compared to the same period in 2011. Interest expense on interest-bearing demand deposits has declined $209,000, or 44.09%, primarily due to lowering the interest rate paid on Performance and Ultimate checking accounts in response to the rates paid in the market. The decrease in average time deposits and average interest-bearing demand accounts was offset by an increase in savings and money market deposits by $12.1 million, or 15.41%, for the three months ended March 31, 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011. The increase was a result of the Company’s marketing efforts focused on new and existing customers. While the savings and money market balances have increased, the interest expense associated with these accounts has declined $13,000, or 13.40%, due to lowering the rates paid on these accounts in response to the decline in the rates paid in the market. Interest expense on long-term debt has increased as a result of an increase in the interest rates on the Company’s adjustable subordinated debentures of BVBC Capital Trust II and BVBC Capital Trust III. As the Company has deferred the interest payments on these debentures, the unpaid interest is compounded thus increasing interest expense.

Provision for Loan Losses

The Company makes provisions for loan losses in amounts that management deems necessary to maintain the allowance for loan losses at an appropriate level. The allowance for loan losses is based upon the analysis of several factors, including general economic conditions, analysis of impaired loans, the general reserve factors, changes in loan mix, classified loans to total risk weighted capital and current and historical charge-offs by loan type. Historical charge off information currently utilized is based on three year weighted average of net charge offs by loan type with more weight given to more current data due to the current economic environment. The Company’s credit administration function performs monthly analyses on the loan portfolio to assess and report on risk levels, delinquencies, internal ranking system and overall credit exposure. Management and the Bank’s Board of Directors review the allowance for loan losses monthly, considering such factors as current and projected economic conditions, loan growth, the composition of the loan portfolio, loan trends and classifications, and other factors. Economic conditions monitored include but are not limited to: Johnson County, KS unemployment rate; consumer confidence; foreclosure rates; vacant property rates; stock market performance; inflation; and interest rates. The allowance for loan losses represents our best estimate of probable losses that have been incurred as of the respective balance sheet dates.

The provision for loan losses recorded for the first quarter of 2012 was $450,000 compared to no provision in the same period of 2011. The provision for this period was attributed to the elimination of a larger commercial credit at a discount during March 2012. While the Company experienced an increase in the provision for loan losses related to commercial loans, the Company has experienced improvement within the loan portfolio with a reduction in non-performing loans by $1.9 million, or 17.09%, since December 31, 2011 and $18.0 million, or 65.76% since March 31, 2011. Management believes they have identified the significant non-performing loans and will continue to aggressively pursue collection of these loans. If the adverse real estate industry and general economic conditions are more prolonged than management anticipates, the Company could experience higher than anticipated loan losses in the future.

The increase in non-interest income was a result of an increase in other service charges, which includes income from trust services, investment brokerage, merchant bankcard processing and debit card processing, by $118,000, or 23.60%, for the three months ended March 31, 2012 as compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase was attributed to income generated from increased signature based debit card transactions associated with our Performance Checking product and our Ultimate Checking product which was introduced in February 2011. The increase

in other service charges was also a result of increased activity in trust and investment brokerage services. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, other income increased $66,000, or 51.97%, as compared to the same period in 2011. The increase was a result of recording the net fair value of mortgage loan-related commitments of a loss of $61,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012, as compared to a loss of $354,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The fair value on these commitments will fluctuate based on the market rates for mortgage loans. This increase was partially offset by lower gains realized on the sale of foreclosed assets during the first quarter of 2012, as compared to the first quarter of 2011.

Other changes reflected in non-interest income include a decline in loans held for sale fee income for the three months ended March 31, 2012 by $11,000, or 1.99%, as compared to the same period in 2011. The Company measures mortgage loans held for sale at fair value and for the three months ended March 31, 2012, the net loss from fair value changes included in loans held for sale fee income was $33,000 and a net gain of $146,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, a decrease of $179,000. Mortgage loan originations have increased during the first quarter of 2012 to $16.1 million, as compared to $6.2 million in the same period in 2011. Excluding the fair value change, loans held for sale fee income increased $168,000, or 41.18%, for the three months ended 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011 due to increased activity as a result of the mortgage rate environment. NSF charges and service fees increased $33,000, or 14.80% as compared to the same period in 2011, as a result of a change in service charges on checking accounts.

Non-interest expense declined $458,000, or 7.40%, to $5.7 million during the three month period ended March 31, 2012, compared to $6.2 million during the prior year period. The decline in non-interest expense was a result of lower salaries and employee benefits of $241,000, or 8.54%, due to reduction in staffing in the third quarter of 2011. Foreclosed assets expense decreased $132,000, or 17.81%, for the three months ended March 31, 2012, as compared to the same period in 2011. The decline was a result of the Company recording a lower provision for foreclosed assets held for sale during the first quarter of 2012 of $128,000, compared to a provision for foreclosed assets held for sale of $361,000 during the first quarter of 2011, a decrease of $233,000, or 64.54%. This was offset by a higher loss realized on the sale of foreclosed assets held for sale during the first quarter of 2012, as compared to the same period in 2011. Other operating expenses have declined $69,000, or 3.52%, for the three months ended March 31, 2012, as compared to the same period in 2011, due to lower legal fees and Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation deposit assessment. The FDIC deposit assessment has decreased as a result of a decrease in assessment base and a change in assessment rates as of April 1, 2011. In addition, net occupancy expense decreased $16,000, or 2.41%, due to lower utilities and repairs and maintenance expenses.

Financial Condition

Total assets for the Company at March 31, 2012, were $671.9 million, an increase of $17.4 million, or 2.67%, compared to $654.5 million at December 31, 2011. Deposits were $507.4 million compared with $490.4 million at December 31, 2011, an increase of $17.0 million, or 3.46%. Stockholders’ equity was $39.8 million at March 31, 2012, compared with $40.5 million at December 31, 2011, a decrease of $622,000, or 1.54%.

Investment Securities. Available-for-sale securities at March 31, 2012, totaled $66.7 million, reflecting a 7.89% increase from $61.8 million at December 31, 2011. The increase was a result of the purchase of $10.0 million in available-for-sale securities during the three months ended March 31, 2012 to replace $5.0 million in securities called and to invest excess funds.

Loans Held for Sale. Mortgage loans held for sale at March 31, 2012, totaled $1.6 million, a decrease of $4.1 million, or 7.19%, compared to $5.7 million at December 31, 2011. The volume of mortgage loans held for sale originated fluctuates based on the mortgage rate environment and the economic environment.

Loans. Loans at March 31, 2012, totaled $437.9 million, reflecting a decrease of $908,000, or 0.21%, compared to $438.8 million at December 31, 2011. The decrease in the loan portfolio was attributed to loans paying off, lower loan originations due to the current economic conditions and loan foreclosures. The loan to deposit ratio at March 31, 2012, was 86.31% compared to 89.48% at December 31, 2011.

Non-performing assets consist primarily of loans past due 90 days or more, non-accrual loans and foreclosed assets. Generally, loans are placed on non-accrual status at 90 days past due and interest accrued to date is considered a loss, unless the loan is well-secured and in the process of collection. Interest accrued but not collected for the loans placed on non-accrual or charged off is reversed against interest income. The interest on these loans is generally accounted for on a cash basis or a cost recovery basis, meaning interest is not recognized until the past due balance has been collected. Loans may be returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

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

 

Non-performing loans decreased 17.09% to $9.4 million at March 31, 2012, from $11.3 million at December 31, 2011. The decrease in non-performing loans was attributed to decreases in non-performing commercial loans by $1.3 million, construction loans by $1.9 million and residential real estate loans by $984,000 since December 31, 2011. The decrease in commercial loans was the result of a payoff of one commercial credit and one credit foreclosure. The decrease in construction loans was the result of the foreclosure on two builder portfolios, a partial charge off on one builder portfolio and a loan payoff by one credit. The decrease in residential real estate was attributed to the foreclosure on two credit relationships and loan payoff by one credit. These decreases were partly offset by an increase in non-performing commercial real estate loans by $1.2 million due to the deterioration in the credit quality of one credit relationship and an increase in home equity loans by $1.0 million due to the deterioration in credit quality of one credit relationship. If the real estate industry and general economy continue to decline, the Company could experience an increase in non-performing loans and foreclosed assets held for sale. The Company closely monitors non-performing credit relationships and our philosophy has been to value non-performing loans at their estimated collectible value and to aggressively manage these situations. Foreclosed assets held for sale were $27.8 million as of March 31, 2012, as compared to $29.2 million at December 31, 2011. The Company has sold $2.2 million in foreclosed assets and has transferred $997,000 in loans to foreclosed property during 2012. The Company is actively marketing these properties and working to reduce the balance of foreclosed assets held for sale.

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

 

Deposits. Deposits increased by $17.0 million, or 3.46%, to $507.4 million as of March 31, 2012, compared with $490.4 million at December 31, 2011. The increase was attributed to an increase in demand deposits by $6.9 million, savings, NOW and money market accounts by $5.8 million and time deposits by $4.3 million. Deposits have increased as a result of focused marketing efforts on new and existing customers and continued interest in the Company’s Performance and Ultimate checking products.

Liquidity. Liquidity is measured by a financial institution’s ability to raise funds through deposits, borrowed funds, capital, or the sale of marketable assets, such as residential mortgage loans or a portfolio of SBA loans. Other sources of liquidity, including cash flow from the repayment of loans, are also considered in determining whether liquidity is satisfactory. Liquidity is also achieved through growth of core deposits and liquid assets, and accessibility to the money and capital markets. The funds are used to meet deposit withdrawals, maintain reserve requirements, fund loans and operate the organization. Core deposits, defined as demand deposits, interest-bearing transaction accounts, savings deposits and time deposits less than $250,000 (excluding brokered deposits), were 87.40% and 88.93% of our total deposits at March 31, 2012, and December 31, 2011, respectively. Although classified as brokered deposits for regulatory purpose, funds placed through the Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service (“CDARS”) are Bank customer relationships that management views as core deposits. If CDARS deposits under $250,000 placed in the CDARS program are added back, our core deposit ratio would be 94.15% at March 31, 2012, and 93.91% at December 31, 2011. Generally, the Company’s funding strategy is to fund loan growth with core deposits and utilize alternative sources of funds such as advances/borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Topeka (“FHLB”), as well as the brokered deposit market to provide for additional liquidity needs and take advantage of opportunities for lower costs. Advance availability with the FHLB fluctuates depending on levels of available collateral and is determined daily with regards to mortgage loans held for sale and quarterly with regards to overall availability and at March 31, 2012, approximately $10.3 million was available.

In addition, the Company uses other forms of short-term debt for cash management and liquidity management purposes on a limited basis. These forms of borrowings include federal funds purchased and revolving lines of credit. The Bank has a line of credit with the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City. The availability on the line of credit fluctuates depending on the level of available collateral, which includes commercial and commercial real estate loans. Availability on the line of credit at March 31, 2012, was approximately $32.8 million. Advances are made at the discretion of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City.

The Company also uses the brokered market as a source of liquidity. As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, excluding CDARS as described above, the Company had approximately $10.1 million in brokered deposits.

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

 

As a result of an agreement with the Federal Reserve Bank and the Office of the State Banking Commissioner of Kansas, prior regulatory approval is currently required prior to the payment of dividends by the Company’s subsidiary, Bank of Blue Valley (the “Bank”). In prior years, the Company has relied on dividends from the Bank to assist in making debt service and dividend payments. The Company has also agreed at the request of the Federal Reserve Bank to defer interest payments and not pay dividends on trust preferred securities or any of its equity securities without prior regulatory approval in an effort to preserve capital. As a result, the Company has deferred the quarterly payment of interest related to trust preferred securities of BVBC Capital Trust III due since March 31, 2009 and the quarterly payment of interest related to trust preferred securities of BVBC Capital Trust II due since April, 24, 2009. In addition, at the request of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City, the Company notified the United States Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury”) of its intention to defer the quarterly dividend payments on the Preferred Shares since May 15, 2009. As part of the agreement with the Treasury, dividends compound if they accrue and are not paid. Failure by the Company to pay the Preferred Share dividend is not an event of default. However, a failure to pay a total of six Preferred Share dividends, whether or not consecutive, gives the holders of the Preferred Shares the right to elect two directors to the Company’s Board of Directors. That right would continue until the Company pays all dividends in arrears. As of March 31, 2012, the Company has deferred 12 Preferred Share dividend payments. At this time, the Treasury has not elected any directors to serve on the Company’s Board of Directors; however, they have assigned an observer to attend the Company’s board meetings. The Company has accrued for interest and the dividends and has every intention to bring the obligation current as soon as permitted. As of March 31, 2012, the Company has accrued $6.1 million for interest and dividends on outstanding trust preferred securities and Preferred Shares. There are other ancillary expenses related to the legal and accounting fees which could be incurred without the ability of the Bank to dividend to the Company. The Company currently maintains cash balances sufficient to cover such ancillary expenses for several years based on historical expense amounts.

The Company’s Asset-Liability Management Committee utilizes a variety of liquidity monitoring tools, including an asset/liability modeling software, to analyze and manage the Company’s liquidity. Management has established internal guidelines and analytical tools to measure liquid assets, alternative sources of liquidity, as well as relevant ratios concerning asset levels and purchased funds. These indicators are reported to the Bank’s Board of Directors monthly.

Capital. At March 31, 2012, our total stockholders’ equity was $39.8 million and our equity to asset ratio was 5.93%. At March 31, 2012, our Tier 1 capital ratio was 9.85% compared to 9.80% at December 31, 2011, while our total risk-based capital ratio was 12.18% compared to 12.08% at December 31, 2011. As of March 31, 2012, the Company had capital in excess of the requirements for an “adequately-capitalized” bank holding company. At March 31, 2012, the Bank’s Tier 1 capital ratio was 11.95% compared to 11.72% at December 31, 2011, while our total risk-based capital ratio was 13.21% compared to 12.98% at December 31, 2011. As of March 31, 2012, the Bank had capital in excess of the requirements for a “well-capitalized” institution.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

As a continuing part of our financial strategy, we attempt to manage the impact of fluctuations in market interest rates on our net interest income. This effort entails providing a reasonable balance between interest rate risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and maintenance of yield. Our funds management policy and interest rate risk policy are established by our Bank Board of Directors and monitored by our Asset/Liability Management Committee. Our funds management policy sets standards within which we are expected to operate. These standards include guidelines for liquidity, loan limits as a percentage of funding sources, exposure to correspondent banks and brokers, and reliance on non-core deposits. Our funds management policy also establishes the reporting requirements to our Bank Board of Directors. Our interest rate risk policy includes guidelines for exposure and monitoring interest rate fluctuations and establishes reporting requirements to the Bank Board of Directors. Our investment policy complements our funds management policy by establishing criteria by which we may purchase securities. These criteria include approved types of securities, brokerage sources, terms of investment, quality standards, and diversification. Our liquidity contingency funding plan is established by our Bank Board of Directors and monitored by our Asset/Liability Management Committee. Our liquidity contingency funding plan sets guidelines for the Company to monitor and control its liquidity position as well as ensure appropriate contingency liquidity plans are actively in place and consistent with the current and forecasted needs of the Company.

We use asset/liability modeling software to analyze the Company’s current sensitivity to instantaneous and permanent changes in interest rates. The system simulates the Company’s asset and liability base and projects future net interest income results under several interest rate assumptions. This allows management to view how changes in interest rates will affect the spread between the yield received on assets and the cost of deposits and borrowed funds.

The asset/liability modeling software is also used to analyze the net economic value of equity at risk under instantaneous shifts in interest rates. The “net economic value of equity at risk” is defined as the market value of assets less the market value of liabilities plus/minus the market value of any off-balance sheet positions. By effectively looking at the present value of all future cash flows on or off the balance sheet, the net economic value of equity modeling takes a longer-term view of interest rate risk.

We strive to maintain a position such that current changes in interest rates will not affect net interest income or the economic value of equity by more than 5%, per 50 basis points. The following table sets forth the estimated percentage change in the Bank of Blue Valley’s net interest income over the next twelve month period and net economic value of equity at risk at March 31, 2012 based on the indicated instantaneous and permanent changes in interest rates.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

The above table indicates that, at March 31, 2012, in the event of a sudden and sustained increase in prevailing market rates, our net interest income would be expected to increase. This is a result of an increase in our interest-bearing demand deposit balances, specifically our Performance and Ultimate Checking accounts. The increase in interest-bearing demand deposit balances provides the Company with greater control over the cost of its funding base and enables the Company to expand its net interest margin in an increasing rate environment. The Bank has placed floors on its loans over the last several years which would limit the decline in yield earned on the loan portfolio in a declining rate environment. Another consideration in a rising interest rate scenario is the impact of mortgage financing, which would likely decline, leading to lower loans held for sale fee income, though the impact is difficult to quantify or project. In the decreasing rate scenarios, the adjustable rate assets (loans) reprice to lower rates faster than our liabilities, but our liabilities – long-term FHLB advances and existing time deposits – would not decrease in rate as much as market rates. In addition, fixed rate loans might experience an increase in prepayments, further decreasing yields on earning assets and causing net income to decrease.

The above table also indicates that, at March 31, 2012, in the event of a sudden increase in prevailing market rates, the economic value of our equity would increase. Given our current asset/liability position, a 100 and 200 basis point increase in interest rates will result in an increase in the economic value of our equity as the change in estimated gain on liabilities exceeds the change in estimated loss on assets in this interest rate scenario. Currently, under an increasing rate environment, the Company’s estimated market value of loans could decrease slightly due to fixed rate loans and investments with rates lower than market rates. These assets have a likelihood to remain until maturity in this rate environment. However, the estimated market value decrease in fixed rate loans and investment securities would be offset by time deposits unable to reprice to higher rates immediately and fixed-rate callable advances from FHLB. The likelihood of advances being called in a rising rate environment increases resulting in advances being repriced prior to maturity. Given our current asset/liability position, a 25 basis point decline in interest rates will result in a slight decrease in the economic value of our equity. Currently, under a falling rate environment, the Company’s estimated market value of loans could increase as a result of fixed rate loans, net of possible prepayments. However, the estimated market value increase in fixed rate loans is offset by time deposits unable to reprice to lower rates immediately and fixed-rate callable advances from FHLB. The likelihood of advances being called in a decreasing rate environment is diminished resulting in the advances existing until final maturity, which has the effect of lowering the economic value of equity.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

In accordance with Item 307 of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company (the “Certifying Officers”) have conducted evaluations of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. As defined under Sections 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the term “disclosure controls and procedures” means controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive officer or officers and principal financial officer or officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Certifying Officers have reviewed the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and have concluded that those disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In compliance with Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, (18 U.S.C. 1350), each of the Certifying Officers executed an Officer’s Certification included in this Quarterly Report on 10-Q.

There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2012, which have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.
