SFSB, Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2013 and 2012
 
1.
Organizational Structure and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Principles of Consolidation
 
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SFSB, Inc. (“the Company”), its wholly-owned subsidiary, Slavie Federal Savings Bank (“the Bank”) and the Bank’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, Slavie Holdings, LLC (“Holdings”) and New Logic Properties, LLC (“New Logic”). The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts and transactions of these companies on a consolidated basis. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.
 
Slavie Bancorp, MHC, a mutual holding company whose activity is not included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, owns 59.1% and 61.33% of the outstanding common stock of the Company as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
 
Business
 
The Company’s primary business is the ownership and operation of the Bank. The Bank’s primary business activity is the acceptance of deposits from the general public and the use of the proceeds for investments and loan originations. The Bank is subject to competition from other financial institutions. The Bank is subject to the regulations of certain federal agencies and undergoes periodic examinations by those regulatory authorities.
 
Holdings, formed in 1999, as a Maryland limited liability company, located at 1614 Churchville Road, Bel Air, Maryland was created to acquire and manage certain real property. This property includes the main office and corporate headquarters of the Bank. In addition, the property houses mixed use office space, which is available for lease.
 
New Logic, formed in 2009, as a Maryland limited liability company, was created to acquire and manage real and personal properties, and is located at 1614 Churchville Road, Bel Air, Maryland.
 
Significant Group Concentrations of Credit Risk
 
Most of the Bank’s activities are with customers located within the greater Baltimore metropolitan area. Note 4 discusses the types of securities in which the Company invests. Note 5 discusses the types of lending in which the Company engages. The Bank does not have any significant concentrations to any one industry or customer.
 
Estimates
 
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the statement of financial condition and revenues and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. The material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near-term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of foreclosed real estate, the valuation of deferred tax assets, and the determination of other than temporary impairment of mortgage-backed securities.
 
 
 

 
SFSB, Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2013 and 2012
 
While management uses all available information to recognize estimated losses on loans, future additions may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions and underlying collateral values, if any. In addition, the OCC, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically reviews the Company’s allowance for loan losses. The OCC may require the Company to recognize additions to the allowance for loan losses based on its judgment of information available at the time of its examination.
 
Subsequent Events
 
The Company has evaluated events and transactions occurring subsequent to the statement of financial condition date of December 31, 2013, for items that should potentially be recognized or disclosed in these financial statements. The evaluation was conducted through May 9, 2014, the date these financial statements were available to be issued.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
For the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, cash in banks, Federal Home Loan Bank overnight deposits, interest bearing deposits with banks, and federal funds sold. Generally, federal funds are sold for one day periods.
 
The Bank is required to maintain average reserve balances, in the form of cash and balances with the Federal Reserve Bank, against its deposit liabilities. For the years 2013 and 2012, the average amount of $15,000 and $147,000, respectively, was maintained as reserve balances.
 
Investments and Mortgage-Backed Securities
 
Investment securities available-for-sale are carried at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, on available-for-sale securities are reported as accumulated other comprehensive income until realized. Other-than-temporary impairment charges and realized gains and losses on sales, determined using the specific identification method, are included in earnings. No available-for-sale securities were held at December 31, 2013 and 2012.
 
Mortgage-backed securities held-to-maturity are carried at amortized cost since management has the ability and intention to hold them to maturity. Amortization of related premiums and discounts are computed using the level yield method over the terms of the securities.
 
When the fair value of a security is less than its amortized cost basis, an assessment is made at the statement of financial condition date as to whether other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI) is present.
 
 
 

 
SFSB, Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2013 and 2012
 
The Company considers numerous factors when determining whether a potential OTTI exists and the period over which the security is expected to recover. The principal factors considered are (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than the amortized cost basis, (2) the financial condition of the issuer (and guarantor, if any) and adverse conditions specifically related to the security, industry or geographic area, (3) failure of the issuer of the security to make scheduled interest or principal payments, (4) any changes to the rating of a security by a rating agency, and (5) the presence of credit enhancements, if any, including the guarantee of the federal government or any of its agencies.
 
For debt securities, OTTI is considered to have occurred if (1) the Company intends to sell the security, (2) it is more likely than not the Company will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, or (3) if the present value of expected cash flows is not sufficient to recover the entire amortized cost basis. There was no OTTI for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.
 
Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta Stock
 
Restricted stock, which represents a required investment in the common stock of a correspondent bank, is carried at cost and as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, consists of the common stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) of Atlanta.
 
Management evaluates the restricted stock for impairment. Management’s determination of whether this investment is impaired is based on their assessment of the ultimate recoverability of the cost rather than by recognizing temporary declines in value. The determination of whether a decline affects the ultimate recoverability of the cost is influenced by criteria such as (1) the significance of the decline in net assets of the FHLB as compared to the capital stock amount for the FHLB and the length of time this situation has persisted, (2) commitments by the FHLB to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance of the FHLB, and (3) the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on institutions and, accordingly, on the customer base of the FHLB.
 
Management believes no impairment charge is necessary related to the FHLB stock as of December 31, 2013.
 
Reclassifications
 
Certain amounts in the 2012 consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2013 presentations. The reclassifications had no impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
 
Loans Held for Sale
 
Loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at the lower of cost or fair value (LOCOM) in the aggregate. Gains and losses on loan sales (sales proceeds minus carrying value) are recorded in other income.

Loans Receivable
 
Loans receivable that management has the intent and ability to hold until maturity or payoff are stated at their outstanding unpaid principal balances, net of an allowance for loan losses and any deferred fees and costs. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees and certain direct loan origination costs are deferred and recognized by the level yield method over the contractual life of the related loan as an adjustment of yield.
 
The loans receivable portfolio is segmented into the following classes: construction, commercial mortgage, commercial non-mortgage, land, 1-4 family residential mortgage, home equity, and consumer loans.
 
For all classes of loans receivable, the accrual of interest is generally discontinued when contractual payment of principal or interest has become 90 days past due or management has serious doubts about further collectibility 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 collectibility 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 collectibility of the total contractual principal and interest is no longer in doubt. The past due status of all classes of loans receivable is based on contractual due dates for loan payments.
 
Allowance for Loan Losses
 
The allowance for loan losses represents management’s estimate of losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date and is recorded as a reduction to loans. The allowance for credit losses is increased by the provision for loan losses, and decreased by charge-offs, net of recoveries. Loans deemed to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance for loan losses, and subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. All, or part, of the principal balance of loans receivable are charged off to the allowance as soon as it is determined that the repayment of all, or part, of the principal balance is highly unlikely.
 
The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level considered adequate to provide for losses that can be reasonably anticipated. Management performs a quarterly evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance. The allowance is based on the Company’s past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, composition of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions and other relevant factors. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates that may be susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.

The allowance consists of specific, general and unallocated components. The specific component relates to loans that are classified as impaired. For loans that are classified as impaired, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows (or collateral value or observable market price) of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan. The general component covers pools of loans by loan class including commercial loans not considered impaired, as well as smaller balance homogeneous loans. These pools of loans are evaluated for loss exposure based upon historical loss rates for each of these categories of loans, adjusted for qualitative factors. These qualitative risk factors include:
 
 
1.
Loan policy and practices
 
 
2.
Economic trends and real estate values
 
 
3.
Trends in loan quality and composition
 
 
4.
Management and staff quality
 
 
5.
Trends in delinquencies and non-accruals
 
 
6.
Loan review quality and oversight
 
 
7.
Loan concentration and credit levels
 
 
8.
Competition, law, and regulation
 
Each factor is assigned a value to reflect improving, stable or declining conditions based on management’s best judgment using relevant information available at the time of the evaluation. Adjustments to the factors are supported through documentation of changes in conditions in a narrative accompanying the allowance for loan loss calculation.
 
A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. 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 reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Impairment is measured on a loan by loan basis for commercial loans by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.
 
An allowance for loan losses is established for an impaired loan if its carrying value exceeds its estimated fair value. The estimated fair values of substantially all of the Company’s impaired loans are measured based on the estimated fair value of the loan’s collateral.

For commercial loans secured by real estate, estimated fair values are determined primarily through third-party appraisals. When a real estate secured loan becomes impaired, a decision is made regarding whether an updated certified appraisal of the real estate is necessary. This decision is based on various considerations, including the age of the most recent appraisal, the loan-to-value ratio based on the original appraisal and the condition of the property. Appraised values are discounted to arrive at the estimated selling price of the collateral, which is considered to be the estimated fair value. The discounts also include estimated costs to sell the property.
 
For commercial loans secured by non-real estate collateral, such as accounts receivable, inventory and equipment, estimated fair values are determined based on the borrower’s financial statements, inventory reports, accounts receivable agings or equipment appraisals or invoices. Indications of value from these sources are generally discounted based on the age of the financial information or the quality of the assets.
 
Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans may be individually or collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, the Company may not separately identify individual residential mortgage loans, home equity loans and other consumer loans for impairment disclosures, unless such loans are the subject of a troubled debt restructuring agreement.
 
An unallocated component may be maintained to cover uncertainties that could affect management’s estimate of probable losses and additional reserves required based on regulatory examinations. The unallocated component of the allowance reflects the margin of imprecision inherent in the underlying assumptions used in the methodologies for estimating specific and general losses in the portfolio.
 
Loans whose terms are modified are classified as troubled debt restructurings if the Company grants such borrowers concessions and it is deemed that those borrowers are experiencing financial difficulty. Concessions granted under a troubled debt restructuring generally involve a temporary reduction in interest rate or an extension of a loan’s stated maturity date. Non-accrual troubled debt restructurings are restored to accrual status if principal and interest payments, under the modified terms, are current for six consecutive months after modification. Loans classified as troubled debt restructurings are designated as impaired.
 
The allowance calculation methodology includes further segregation of loan classes into risk rating categories. The borrower’s overall financial condition, repayment sources, guarantors and value of collateral, if appropriate, are evaluated annually for commercial loans or when credit deficiencies arise, such as delinquent loan payments, for commercial and consumer loans. Credit quality risk ratings include regulatory classifications of special mention, substandard, doubtful, and loss. Loans criticized as special mention have potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If uncorrected, the potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects. Loans classified as substandard have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They include loans that are inadequately protected by the current sound net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans classified doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in loans classified substandard with the added characteristic that collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of current conditions and facts, is highly improbable. Loans not classified are rated pass.

In addition, Federal regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company’s allowance for loan losses and may require the Company to recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination, which may not be currently available to management. Based on management’s comprehensive analysis of the loan portfolio, management believes the current level of the allowance for loan losses is adequate.
 
Bank Owned Life Insurance
 
The Company purchases bank owned life insurance (“BOLI”) as a source of funding for employee benefit expenses. BOLI involves the purchasing of life insurance by the Company on a chosen group of employees. The Company is the owner and beneficiary of the policies. This life insurance asset is carried at the cash surrender value of the underlying policies. Income from the increase in cash surrender value of the policies is included in other income on the statement of operations.
 
Premises and Equipment
 
Land is carried at cost. Premises and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method, based on the useful lives of the respective assets.
 
Foreclosed Real Estate
 
Assets acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are held for sale and are initially recorded at fair value less cost to sell at the date of foreclosure, establishing a new cost basis, generally by a charge to the allowance for loan losses. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management and the assets are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Revenue and expenses from operations and changes in the valuation allowance are included in other expenses.
 
Income Taxes
 
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 bases of assets and liabilities and enacted changes in tax rates and laws are recognized in the period in which they occur.
 
Deferred income tax expense results from changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities between periods. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of the evidence available, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized.

The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions if it is more likely than not, based on the technical merits, that the tax position will be realized or sustained upon examination. The term more-likely-than-not means a likelihood of more than 50 percent; the terms examined and upon examination also include resolution of the related appeals or litigation processes, if any. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is initially and subsequently measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. The determination of whether or not a tax position has met the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold considers the facts, circumstances, and information available at the reporting date and is subject to management’s judgment.
 
The Company files a consolidated federal income tax return with the Bank and the Bank’s wholly-owned subsidiaries. The Company entered into a tax sharing agreement (under the Internal Revenue Section 1552) between SFSB, Inc. and the Bank. The agreement provides that the tax liability shall be apportioned between the entities in accordance with the ratio for which the portion of the consolidated taxable income attributed to each company realizing taxable income bears to the consolidated taxable income. SFSB, Inc. had $618,000 due to the Bank resulting from carryback claims at December 31, 2013 and $-0- due to or from the Bank at December 31, 2012.
 
The Company had no significant income tax uncertainties and recognized no adjustment for unrecognized income tax benefits for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. Interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits are reflected in the income tax provision in the Consolidated Statement of Income. The Company did not recognize any interest and penalties for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. The Company’s Federal and Maryland tax returns are subject to examination for the tax years 2010 through 2013.
 
Transfers of Financial Assets
 
Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales when control over the assets has been surrendered. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when (1) the assets have been isolated from the Company, (2) the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets, and (3) the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity.
 
Advertising Costs
 
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments
 
In the ordinary course of business, the Company has entered into off-balance sheet financial instruments consisting of commitments to extend credit. Such financial instruments are recorded in the statement of financial condition when they are funded.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)
 
Accounting principles generally require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income. Although certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on investment securities available-for-sale, are reported as a separate component of the shareholders’ equity section of the statement of financial condition, such items, along with net income (loss), are components of comprehensive income (loss). There were no investment securities classified as available-for-sale as of December 31, 2013 or 2012.
 
Earnings per Share
 
Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the appropriate period. Unearned Employee Stock Ownership Plan shares are not included in outstanding shares. Shares are considered outstanding for earnings per share calculations when they are committed to be released. Weighted average shares outstanding were 2,668,453 and 2,668,453 in 2013 and 2012, respectively. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average shares outstanding as adjusted for the dilutive effect of outstanding stock options and unvested stock awards. Potential common shares related to stock options and unvested stock awards are determined based on the “treasury stock” method. There are no dilutive earnings per shares at December 31, 2013 or December 31, 2012, due to the Company being in a loss position.
 
Share Based Compensation
 
The Company measures compensation expense of all stock-based awards at fair value on the date of grant and recognizes compensation expense over the vesting period for all awards granted. Compensation costs are recognized over the period that an employee provides service in exchange for the award.
 
Employee Stock Ownership Plan
 
The cost of shares issued to the ESOP but not yet allocated to participants is presented in the consolidated statement of financial condition as a reduction of shareholders’ equity. Compensation expense is recorded based on the fair value of the shares as they are committed to be released for allocation to participant accounts. The difference between the fair value and the cost of shares committed to be released is recorded as an adjustment to paid-in capital. Dividends on allocated ESOP shares are recorded as a reduction of retained earnings; dividends on unallocated ESOP shares are reflected as a reduction of the related debt.

Regulatory Formal Agreement
 
On July 17, 2012, the Bank and the Comptroller of the Currency of the United States of America (“Comptroller”) entered into a Formal Agreement (#2012-191). The Comptroller found unsafe and unsound banking practices related to capital, asset quality, management, earnings and credit risk management.  The Bank and Board of Directors were further ordered to operate at all times in compliance with the articles of the Agreement.

The existence and terms of the Order will clearly influence the Bank's ongoing operations. Management is unable to determine the effects, if any, that the Bank would experience as a result of its possible inability to comply with the Agreement (see Note 3 on Management’s Plans).
 
The Bank is not in compliance with the capital requirements set by the Order at December 31, 2013. The Bank has and intends to continue to reduce costs and expenses and is currently reviewing secondary and alternative strategies to attain the required capital ratios.
 
The Bank provides the Assistant Deputy Comptroller with periodic Progress Reports in meeting the provisions of the Order.  However, restoring the Bank to a sound financial state is dependent on Management’s ability to raise additional capital and comply with the above provisions of the Agreement.
 
3.
Management’s Plans
 
Management believes the Bank is in substantial compliance with the provisions of the Order, with the exception of the capital ratio section. During 2013, the Bank actively worked to ensure that compliance had been secured or a plan had been implemented to achieve compliance in the specified timeframes. In conjunction with the Board of Directors, Management has taken numerous measures to bolster the Bank’s policies and procedures to maintain continued compliance in 2013 and beyond. These measures include:
 
 
-
Enhanced Board participation through greater reporting, communication and participation by the Board in the oversight of the Bank’s operations.
 
 
-
Development, adoption and implementation of an updated Profit and Budget Plan, a Strategic Plan 2013-2015, a Classified Asset Plan, and several other new policies.  These documents outline the Bank’s goals and strategies. They were developed in unison to ensure the Bank operates in a manner consistent with sound and prudent banking practices.
 
 
-
Continued engagement of a third-party, independent loan review program that reviews the effective identification and categorization of problem credits by Management.
 
 
-
Continued meetings of Compliance Committee that independently reports to the Board of Directors on a monthly basis as to the Bank’s continued progress with the Agreement.
 
 
-
Continued communication with the Bank’s regulatory authorities through the timely submission of detailed Progress Reports as to the Bank’s efforts.

Residential lending is generally considered to involve less risk than other forms of lending, although payment experience on these loans is dependent to some extent on economic and market conditions in the Bank's lending area. Commercial loan repayments are generally dependent on the operations of the related properties or the financial condition of its borrower or guarantor. Accordingly, repayment of such loans can be more susceptible to adverse conditions in the real estate market and the regional economy.
 
Directors and officers of the Company are permitted to borrow from the Bank to the extent permitted by applicable laws and regulations on the same basis as unrelated borrowers. The following table shows the activity in these related party loans during 2013 and 2012:

The Company may grant a concession or modification for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower's financial condition that it would not otherwise consider resulting in a modified loan which is then identified as a troubled debt restructuring (TDR) if the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. The Company may modify loans through rate reductions at a below market interest rate given the related credit risk, extensions of maturity, interest only payments, or payment modifications to better match the timing of cash flows due under the modified terms with the cash flows from the borrowers' operations. Loan modifications are intended to minimize the economic loss and to avoid foreclosure or repossession of the collateral. All TDRs are considered impaired loans for purposes of calculating the Company's allowance for loan losses and are classified as impaired loans for the purpose of financial reporting.
 
The Company identifies loans for potential restructure primarily through direct communication with the borrower and evaluation of the borrower's financial statements, revenue projections, tax returns, and credit reports. Even if the borrower is not presently in default, management will consider the likelihood that cash flow shortages, adverse economic conditions, and negative trends may result in a payment default in the near future.

The Bank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financial needs of its customers. The financial instruments are limited to commitments to extend credit and involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the statement of financial position. The contract amounts of these instruments express the extent of involvement the Bank has in each class of financial instruments.
 
The Bank's exposure to credit loss from non-performance by the other party to the above-mentioned financial instruments is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments. The credit risk involved in these financial instruments is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers.
 
Unless otherwise noted, the Bank does not require collateral or other security to support financial instruments with off-balance-sheet credit risk.

Commercial lines of credit include lines of credit collateralized by commercial real estate, and revolving lines of credit (RLOC). RLOC are typically used for short term working capital needs and are based most heavily on the accounts receivable and inventory components of the borrower’s balance sheet. RLOC have terms of one year, are subject to annual reaffirmation and carry variable rates of interest. The Bank generally receives a one percent fee, based on the commitment amount.

For both types of credit facilities listed above, we evaluate each customer’s credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis.
 
Home equity lines of credit are secured by second deeds of trust on residential real estate. They have fixed expiration dates as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. We evaluate each customer’s credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis.
 
Overdraft lines of credit on checking accounts are unsecured. Linked to any Bank personal checking account, the line will automatically make a deposit to the customer’s checking account if the balance falls below the amount needed to pay an item presented for payment.
 
As of December 31, 2013, we had one outstanding commitment to advance a final draw on a construction loan that will be converted to a ten-year, fixed-rate mortgage loan at 3.125%. As of December 31, 2012, we had one outstanding commitment to make a ten-year mortgage loan at a fixed rate of 3.125%. Loan commitments expire 60 days from the date of the commitment.
 
For the years ended December 31, 2013, and December 31, 2012, we engaged in no off-balance sheet transactions reasonably likely to have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Borrowings
 
The Bank has a line of credit from the FHLB of Atlanta. The line is secured by the FHLB of Atlanta stock and a blanket lien on mortgages. The borrowing limit is defined as a percentage of total assets. Each borrowing is evaluated on a case-by-case basis by the lender. The FHLB unused credit line amounted to $942,000 and $18.3 million at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
 
During the fourth quarter of 2012, the Bank refinanced the five outstanding advances, which resulted in extended maturities but lowered related borrowing costs. The new advances blend the contractual prepayment fee into the rate of new long-term advances without requiring additional cash or purchasing additional FHLB stock.
 
At December 31, 2013 and 2012, outstanding borrowings with the FHLB were $25.0 million. Borrowings at December 31, 2013 and 2012 consisted of $25.0 million long-term fixed rate FHLB advances with interest rates ranging from 2.59% to 3.71%.
 
At December 31, 2013, $18.5 million matures in 4 to 5 years and $6.5 million matures in more than five years. All of the advances outstanding as of December 31, 2012 had maturities which exceed five years from the balance sheet date.

In 2004, the Bank reorganized to a federally chartered stock savings bank and established the ESOP for its employees. The ESOP acquired 116,630 shares of the Company’s common stock with funds provided by a loan from the Company, to be repaid principally from the Bank’s contributions to the ESOP with twenty equal annual installments through 2024, bearing interest at the Wall Street Journal prime rate adjusted monthly. Shares are released to participants proportionately as the loan is repaid. The Bank recognizes compensation expense as shares are committed for release from collateral at their current market price. Dividends on allocated shares are recorded as a reduction of retained earnings and dividends on unallocated shares are recorded as a reduction of debt. The compensation cost for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $4,000 and $13,000, respectively. The ESOP holds the common stock in a trust for allocation among participating employees and on an annual basis a contribution is allocated from the Bank to the participants’ accounts. There were 64,147 and 69,978 of unearned ESOP shares at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The fair value of unearned ESOP shares at December 31, 2013 and 2012 was estimated to be $14,000 and $58,000, respectively.
 
The total of released unearned ESOP shares was $58,000 for both December 31, 2013 and 2012. The difference between the amounts released from unearned ESOP shares and the compensation cost was $(50,000) and $(46,000), and was charged to paid-in-capital in 2013 and 2012, respectively.
 
All employees of the Bank who attain the age of 21 and complete one year of service with the Bank are eligible to participate in the ESOP. Each participant’s vested interest under the ESOP is determined according to the following schedule: 0% for less than 5 years of service with the Company and 100% for more than 5 years of service. For vesting purposes, a year of service means any plan year in which an employee completes at least 1,000 hours of service (whether before or after the ESOP’s January 1, 2004 effective date). Vesting accelerates to 100% upon a participant’s attainment of normal retirement age 65, death or disability.

Regulatory Requirements
 
The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank's assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting principles. The Bank's capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total and Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tangible and Core (leverage) capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined).

As of December 31, 2012, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“Comptroller”) categorized the Bank as deficient. In connection with the Formal Agreement dated July 27, 2012, discussed in Note 2, the Bank is required to maintain Tier 1 (Core) Capital Ratio equal to or greater than 9% and a Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio equal to or greater than 14%. On January 7, 2014, the Comptroller issued a Consent Order, discussed in Note 2, against the Bank that reiterated the capital requirements for the Bank to become Well Capitalized. The ratio of Tier 1 (Core) Capital Ratio was 2.18%, which is less than the 9% required, and the Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio was 5.14%, which is less than the 14% required at December 31, 2013.  The failure to maintain the required capital level could prompt further supervisory actions or restrictions on the Bank’s business activities.

Restrictions on Dividends, Loans and Advances
 
Federal and state banking regulations place certain restrictions on dividends paid and loans or advances made by the Bank to the Company. The total amount of dividends which may be paid at any date is generally limited to the retained earnings of the Bank based on the current and preceding two years net income, and loans or advances are limited to ten percent of the Bank’s capital stock and surplus on a secured basis.
 
At December 31, 2013, based on current and prior year net losses, combined with net income of the preceding years, any dividends would be subject to regulatory approval. Funds available for loans or advances by the Bank to the Company amounted to $312,000 at December 31, 2013.
 
In addition, dividends paid by the Bank to the Company would be prohibited if the effect thereof would cause the Bank’s capital to be reduced below applicable minimum capital requirements.

In 2010, the Company recorded an other than temporary impairment loss of $2,421,000 related to mutual funds which were considered to be capital assets. The Company recorded a full valuation allowance related to the deferred tax asset generated by the impairment losses. In 2011, the Company redeemed the mutual funds, and recognized a gross capital loss on redemption for tax purposes of approximately $2,131,000 which expires in 2016 for which a full valuation allowance has been recorded.
 
At December 31, 2013, the Company has approximately $11,241,000 and $9,345,000, respectively, of federal and state net operating loss carry forwards that expire in 2032 for which a full valuation has been recorded.
 
As the Company is a going concern, a full valuation allowance was been recorded for the entire net deferred tax asset at December 31, 2013 and 2012, including the allowances discussed above related to capital loss and net operating loss carry forwards.
 
The Bank was allowed a special bad debt deduction at various percentages of otherwise taxable income for various years through December 31, 1987. If the amounts, which qualified as deductions for federal income tax purposes prior to December 31, 1987, are later used for purposes other than to absorb loan losses, including distributions in liquidations, they will be subject to federal income tax at the then current corporate rate and mortgage loans must be maintained at the December 31, 1987 level to receive current tax deductions for loan losses. Retained earnings at December 31, 2013 and 2012 include $1,580,000, for which no provision for federal income tax has been provided. The unrecorded deferred income tax liability on the above amount was approximately $610,000.

Fair Value Measurements and Fair Values for Financial Instruments
 
Management uses its best judgment in estimating the fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities; however, there are inherent weaknesses in any estimation technique. Therefore, for substantially all assets and liabilities, the fair value estimates herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could have realized in sale transactions on the dates indicated. The estimated fair value amounts have been measured as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 and have not been re-evaluated or updated for purposes of these financial statements subsequent to those respective dates. As such, the estimated fair values of these assets and liabilities subsequent to the respective reporting dates may be different than the amounts reported at each year-end.
 
The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation methods used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
 
Level 1 - Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
 
Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are active, and model derived valuations in which significant inputs or significant drivers are observable in active markets.
 
Level 3 - Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant drivers are unobservable.
 
An asset’s or liability’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
 
No financial instruments were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2013 or 2012.
 
For assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis, the fair value measurements by level within the fair value hierarchy used at December 31, 2013 and 2012 are as follows:

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2013 and 2012
 
The following information should not be interpreted as an estimate of the fair value of the entire Company since a fair value calculation is only provided for a limited portion of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Due to a wide range of valuation techniques and the degree of subjectivity used in making the estimates, comparisons between the Company’s disclosures and those of other companies may not be meaningful. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values of the Company’s assets and liabilities at December 31, 2013 and 2012:
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents (Carried at Cost)
 
The carrying value for cash and short-term instruments approximate those assets’ fair values.
 
Time Deposits with Banks (Carried at Cost)
 
The carrying amount of time deposits with banks approximates fair value.
 
Investment and Mortgage-Backed Securities
 
The fair value of investment securities available-for-sale (carried at fair value) and held-to-maturity (carried at amortized cost) 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.
 
FHLB of Atlanta Stock (Carried at Cost)
 
The carrying value of FHLB of Atlanta stock approximates fair value based on redemption provisions of the FHLB of Atlanta.
 
Loans Receivable (Carried at Cost)
 
The fair values of loans (excluding impaired loans) are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using market rates at the statement of financial condition date that reflect the credit and interest rate-risk inherent in the loans. Projected future cash flows are calculated based upon contractual maturity or call dates, projected repayments and prepayments of principal. Generally, for variable rate loans which reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values.
 
Impaired Loans (Generally Carried at Fair Value)
 
Impaired loans are those for which the Company has measured impairment generally based on the fair value of the loan’s collateral. Fair value is generally determined based upon independent third-party appraisals of the properties, or discounted cash flows based upon the expected proceeds. 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 at December 31, 2013 and 2012 consists of the loan balances with an unpaid principal balance of $18,430,000 and $15,910,000, net of a valuation allowance of $209,000 and $425,000, and partial charge offs of $3,229,000 and $4,195,000, respectively.

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2013 and 2012
 
Accrued Interest Receivable and Payable (Carried at Cost)
 
The carrying values of accrued interest receivable and accrued interest payable approximate their fair values.
 
Loans Held for Sale (Carried at Lower of Cost or Fair Value)
 
Fair value for loans held for sale are based on existing commitments from investors or prevailing market prices.
 
Foreclosed Real Estate (Carried at Lower of Cost or Fair Value Less Estimated Selling Costs)
 
Fair values of foreclosed assets are based on independent third party appraisals of the properties or discounted cash flows based upon the expected sales proceeds upon disposition of the assets. These values were generally determined based on the sales prices of similar properties in the proximate vicinity. These assets are included as Level 3 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
 
Deposit Liabilities (Carried at Cost)
 
The fair values disclosed for demand deposits (e.g., interest and noninterest checking, passbook savings and money market accounts) are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts). Fair values for fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered in the market on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits.
 
Short-Term Borrowings (Carried at Cost)
 
The carrying amounts of short-term borrowings approximate their fair values.
 
Long-Term Debt (Carried at Cost)
 
Fair values of FHLB advances are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on quoted prices for new FHLB advances with similar credit risk characteristics, terms and remaining maturity. These prices obtained from this active market represent a market value that is deemed to represent the transfer price if the liability were assumed by a third party.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments (Disclosed at Cost)
 
Fair values for the Company’s off-balance sheet financial instruments (lending commitments) are based on fees currently charged in the market to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing. At December 31, 2013 and 2012 such fees were not material.

Organizational Structure and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Principles of Consolidation
 
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SFSB, Inc. (“the Company”), its wholly-owned subsidiary, Slavie Federal Savings Bank (“the Bank”) and the Bank’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, Slavie Holdings, LLC (“Holdings”) and New Logic Properties, LLC (“New Logic”). The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts and transactions of these companies on a consolidated basis. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.
 
Slavie Bancorp, MHC, a mutual holding company whose activity is not included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, owns 59.10% and 61.33% of the outstanding common stock of the Company as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
 
Business
 
The Company’s primary business is the ownership and operation of the Bank. The Bank’s primary business activity is the acceptance of deposits from the general public and the use of the proceeds for investments and loan originations. The Bank is subject to competition from other financial institutions. The Bank is subject to the regulations of certain federal agencies and undergoes periodic examinations by those regulatory authorities.
 
Holdings, formed in 1999, as a Maryland limited liability company, located at 1614 Churchville Road, Bel Air, Maryland was created to acquire and manage certain real property. This property includes the main office and corporate headquarters of the Bank. In addition, the property houses mixed use office space, which is available for lease.
 
New Logic, formed in 2009, as a Maryland limited liability company, was created to acquire and manage real and personal properties, and is located at 1614 Churchville Road, Bel Air, Maryland.
 
Subsequent Events
 
On Friday, May 30, 2014, the Bank was closed by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”), and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) was named Receiver.  Certain of the Bank’s assets and substantially all deposits and certain other liabilities were sold to Bay Bank, FSB (“Bay Bank”), the assuming institution (“the “Transaction”).  The former Bel Air, Maryland and Baltimore City, Maryland Bank branch locations are now being operated by Bay Bank.  The Transaction was completed in accordance with the terms of the Purchase and Assumption Agreement, All Deposits.  Based upon a preliminary closing with the FDIC as of May 30, 2014, the Bank acquired total assets of approximately $124.3 million, including approximately $90.6 million in loans.  The Bank also agreed to assume liabilities of approximately $111.0 million made up almost entirely of deposits.  These amounts are estimates and, accordingly, are subject to adjustments based upon final settlement with the FDIC and final determination of estimated fair values for loans, intangibles, and deposits when all necessary information becomes available and management has completed its analysis.  The Bank did not acquire any of Slavie’s other real estate owned.  Additionally, the Bank did not at closing commit to purchase any owned or lease bank premises of Slavie; however, the Bank was granted an option to elect following closing to purchase any or all of the banking premises owned by Slavie, or, in the case of lease banking premises, to assume the lease. The Bank plans to terminate the lease at the former Slavie Bel Air location in October 2014.

Estimates
 
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the statement of financial condition and revenues and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. The material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near-term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of foreclosed real estate, the valuation of deferred tax assets, and the determination of other than temporary impairment of mortgage-backed securities.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
For the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, cash in banks, Federal Home Loan Bank overnight deposits, interest bearing deposits with banks, and federal funds sold. Generally, federal funds are sold for one day periods.
 
The Bank is required to maintain average reserve balances, in the form of cash and balances with the Federal Reserve Bank, against its deposit liabilities.
 
Investments and Mortgage-Backed Securities
 
Investment securities available-for-sale are carried at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, on available-for-sale securities are reported as accumulated other comprehensive income until realized. Other-than-temporary impairment charges and realized gains and losses on sales, determined using the specific identification method, are included in earnings. No available-for-sale securities were held at March 31,2014 and December 31, 2013.
 
Mortgage-backed securities held-to-maturity are carried at amortized cost since management has the ability and intention to hold them to maturity. Amortization of related premiums and discounts are computed using the level yield method over the terms of the securities.
 
When the fair value of a security is less than its amortized cost basis, an assessment is made at the statement of financial condition date as to whether other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI) is present.
 
The Company considers numerous factors when determining whether a potential OTTI exists and the period over which the security is expected to recover. The principal factors considered are (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than the amortized cost basis, (2) the financial condition of the issuer (and guarantor, if any) and adverse conditions specifically related to the security, industry or geographic area, (3) failure of the issuer of the security to make scheduled interest or principal payments, (4) any changes to the rating of a security by a rating agency, and (5) the presence of credit enhancements, if any, including the guarantee of the federal government or any of its agencies.

SFSB, Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
 
For debt securities, OTTI is considered to have occurred if (1) the Company intends to sell the security, (2) it is more likely than not the Company will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, or (3) if the present value of expected cash flows is not sufficient to recover the entire amortized cost basis. There was no OTTI for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.
 
Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta Stock
 
Restricted stock, which represents a required investment in the common stock of a correspondent bank, is carried at cost and as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, consists of the common stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) of Atlanta.
 
Management evaluates the restricted stock for impairment. Management’s determination of whether this investment is impaired is based on their assessment of the ultimate recoverability of the cost rather than by recognizing temporary declines in value. The determination of whether a decline affects the ultimate recoverability of the cost is influenced by criteria such as (1) the significance of the decline in net assets of the FHLB as compared to the capital stock amount for the FHLB and the length of time this situation has persisted, (2) commitments by the FHLB to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance of the FHLB, and (3) the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on institutions and, accordingly, on the customer base of the FHLB.
 
Management believes no impairment charge is necessary related to the FHLB stock as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013.
 
Loans Receivable
 
Loans receivable that management has the intent and ability to hold until maturity or payoff are stated at their outstanding unpaid principal balances, net of an allowance for loan losses and any deferred fees and costs. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees and certain direct loan origination costs are deferred and recognized by the level yield method over the contractual life of the related loan as an adjustment of yield.
 
The loans receivable portfolio is segmented into the following classes: construction, commercial mortgage, commercial non-mortgage, land, 1-4 family residential mortgage, home equity, and consumer loans.
 
For all classes of loans receivable, the accrual of interest is generally discontinued when contractual payment of principal or interest has become 90 days past due or management has serious doubts about further collectibility 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 collectibility 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 collectibility of the total contractual principal and interest is no longer in doubt. The past due status of all classes of loans receivable is based on contractual due dates for loan payments.

Allowance for Loan Losses
 
The allowance for loan losses represents management’s estimate of losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date and is recorded as a reduction to loans. The allowance for credit losses is increased by the provision for loan losses, and decreased by charge-offs, net of recoveries. Loans deemed to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance for loan losses, and subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. All, or part, of the principal balance of loans receivable are charged off to the allowance as soon as it is determined that the repayment of all, or part, of the principal balance is highly unlikely.
 
The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level considered adequate to provide for losses that can be reasonably anticipated. Management performs a quarterly evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance. The allowance is based on the Company’s past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, composition of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions and other relevant factors. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates that may be susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.
 
The allowance consists of specific, general and unallocated components. The specific component relates to loans that are classified as impaired. For loans that are classified as impaired, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows (or collateral value or observable market price) of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan. The general component covers pools of loans by loan class including commercial loans not considered impaired, as well as smaller balance homogeneous loans. These pools of loans are evaluated for loss exposure based upon historical loss rates for each of these categories of loans, adjusted for qualitative factors. These qualitative risk factors include:
 
 
1.
Loan policy and practices
 
 
2.

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. 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 reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Impairment is measured on a loan by loan basis for commercial loans by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.
 
An allowance for loan losses is established for an impaired loan if its carrying value exceeds its estimated fair value. The estimated fair values of substantially all of the Company’s impaired loans are measured based on the estimated fair value of the loan’s collateral.
 
For commercial loans secured by real estate, estimated fair values are determined primarily through third-party appraisals. When a real estate secured loan becomes impaired, a decision is made regarding whether an updated certified appraisal of the real estate is necessary. This decision is based on various considerations, including the age of the most recent appraisal, the loan-to-value ratio based on the original appraisal and the condition of the property. Appraised values are discounted to arrive at the estimated selling price of the collateral, which is considered to be the estimated fair value. The discounts also include estimated costs to sell the property.
 
For commercial loans secured by non-real estate collateral, such as accounts receivable, inventory and equipment, estimated fair values are determined based on the borrower’s financial statements, inventory reports, accounts receivable agings or equipment appraisals or invoices. Indications of value from these sources are generally discounted based on the age of the financial information or the quality of the assets.
 
Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans may be individually or collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, the Company may not separately identify individual residential mortgage loans, home equity loans and other consumer loans for impairment disclosures, unless such loans are the subject of a troubled debt restructuring agreement.
 
An unallocated component may be maintained to cover uncertainties that could affect management’s estimate of probable losses and additional reserves required based on regulatory examinations. The unallocated component of the allowance reflects the margin of imprecision inherent in the underlying assumptions used in the methodologies for estimating specific and general losses in the portfolio.
 
Loans whose terms are modified are classified as troubled debt restructurings if the Company grants such borrowers concessions and it is deemed that those borrowers are experiencing financial difficulty. Concessions granted under a troubled debt restructuring generally involve a temporary reduction in interest rate or an extension of a loan’s stated maturity date. Non-accrual troubled debt restructurings are restored to accrual status if principal and interest payments, under the modified terms, are current for six consecutive months after modification. Loans classified as troubled debt restructurings are designated as impaired.

The allowance calculation methodology includes further segregation of loan classes into risk rating categories. The borrower’s overall financial condition, repayment sources, guarantors and value of collateral, if appropriate, are evaluated annually for commercial loans or when credit deficiencies arise, such as delinquent loan payments, for commercial and consumer loans. Credit quality risk ratings include regulatory classifications of special mention, substandard, doubtful, and loss. Loans criticized as special mention have potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If uncorrected, the potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects. Loans classified as substandard have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They include loans that are inadequately protected by the current sound net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans classified doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in loans classified substandard with the added characteristic that collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of current conditions and facts, is highly improbable. Loans not classified are rated pass.
 
In addition, Federal regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company’s allowance for loan losses and may require the Company to recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination, which may not be currently available to management. Based on management’s comprehensive analysis of the loan portfolio, management believes the current level of the allowance for loan losses is adequate.
 
Bank Owned Life Insurance
 
The Company purchases bank owned life insurance (“BOLI”) as a source of funding for employee benefit expenses. BOLI involves the purchasing of life insurance by the Company on a chosen group of employees. The Company is the owner and beneficiary of the policies. This life insurance asset is carried at the cash surrender value of the underlying policies. Income from the increase in cash surrender value of the policies is included in other income on the statement of operations.
 
Premises and Equipment
 
Land is carried at cost. Premises and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method, based on the useful lives of the respective assets.
 
Foreclosed Real Estate
 
Assets acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are held for sale and are initially recorded at fair value less cost to sell at the date of foreclosure, establishing a new cost basis, generally by a charge to the allowance for loan losses. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management and the assets are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Revenue and expenses from operations and changes in the valuation allowance are included in other expenses.

Income Taxes
 
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 bases of assets and liabilities and enacted changes in tax rates and laws are recognized in the period in which they occur.
 
Deferred income tax expense results from changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities between periods. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of the evidence available, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized.

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
 
The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions if it is more likely than not, based on the technical merits, that the tax position will be realized or sustained upon examination. The term more-likely-than-not means a likelihood of more than 50 percent; the terms examined and upon examination also include resolution of the related appeals or litigation processes, if any. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is initially and subsequently measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. The determination of whether or not a tax position has met the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold considers the facts, circumstances, and information available at the reporting date and is subject to management’s judgment.
 
The Company files a consolidated federal income tax return with the Bank and the Bank’s wholly-owned subsidiaries. The Company entered into a tax sharing agreement (under the Internal Revenue Section 1552) between SFSB, Inc. and the Bank. The agreement provides that the tax liability shall be apportioned between the entities in accordance with the ratio for which the portion of the consolidated taxable income attributed to each company realizing taxable income bears to the consolidated taxable income. SFSB, Inc. had $618,000 due to the Bank resulting from carryback claims at December 31, 2013 and $-0- due to or from the Bank at December 31, 2012.
 
The Company had no significant income tax uncertainties and recognized no adjustment for unrecognized income tax benefits for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. Interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits are reflected in the income tax provision in the Consolidated Statement of Income. The Company did not recognize any interest and penalties for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. The Company’s Federal and Maryland tax returns are subject to examination for the tax years 2010 through 2013.
 
Transfers of Financial Assets
 
Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales when control over the assets has been surrendered. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when (1) the assets have been isolated from the Company, (2) the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets, and (3) the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity.
 
Advertising Costs
 
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments
 
In the ordinary course of business, the Company has entered into off-balance sheet financial instruments consisting of commitments to extend credit. Such financial instruments are recorded in the statement of financial condition when they are funded.
 
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
 
Accounting principles generally require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income. Although certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on investment securities available-for-sale, are reported as a separate component of the shareholders’ equity section of the statement of financial condition, such items, along with net income (loss), are components of comprehensive income (loss).

(4)
Within sixty (60) days, the Board shall develop and implement an effective internal capital planning process to assess the Bank’s capital adequacy in relation to its overall risks and to ensure maintenance of appropriate capital levels.
 
 
(5)
Within sixty (60) days, the Board shall forward to the Director a written Capital Plan for the Bank, consistent with the Strategic Plan covering at least a three (3) year period.

Residential lending is generally considered to involve less risk than other forms of lending, although payment experience on these loans is dependent to some extent on economic and market conditions in the Bank's lending area. Commercial loan repayments are generally dependent on the operations of the related properties or the financial condition of its borrower or guarantor. Accordingly, repayment of such loans can be more susceptible to adverse conditions in the real estate market and the regional economy.

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
 
The Company may grant a concession or modification for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower's financial condition that it would not otherwise consider resulting in a modified loan which is then identified as a troubled debt restructuring (TDR) if the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. The Company may modify loans through rate reductions at a below market interest rate given the related credit risk, extensions of maturity, interest only payments, or payment modifications to better match the timing of cash flows due under the modified terms with the cash flows from the borrowers' operations. Loan modifications are intended to minimize the economic loss and to avoid foreclosure or repossession of the collateral. All TDRs are considered impaired loans for purposes of calculating the Company's allowance for loan losses and are classified as impaired loans for the purpose of financial reporting.
 
The Company identifies loans for potential restructure primarily through direct communication with the borrower and evaluation of the borrower's financial statements, revenue projections, tax returns, and credit reports. Even if the borrower is not presently in default, management will consider the likelihood that cash flow shortages, adverse economic conditions, and negative trends may result in a payment default in the near future.

The Bank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financial needs of its customers. The financial instruments are limited to commitments to extend credit and involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the statement of financial position. The contract amounts of these instruments express the extent of involvement the Bank has in each class of financial instruments.
 
The Bank's exposure to credit loss from non-performance by the other party to the above-mentioned financial instruments is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments. The credit risk involved in these financial instruments is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers.
 
Unless otherwise noted, the Bank does not require collateral or other security to support financial instruments with off-balance-sheet credit risk.

Commercial lines of credit include lines of credit collateralized by commercial real estate, and revolving lines of credit (RLOC). RLOC are typically used for short term working capital needs and are based most heavily on the accounts receivable and inventory components of the borrower’s balance sheet. RLOC have terms of one year, are subject to annual reaffirmation and carry variable rates of interest. The Bank generally receives a one percent fee, based on the commitment amount.

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
 
For both types of credit facilities listed above, we evaluate each customer’s credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis.
 
Home equity lines of credit are secured by second deeds of trust on residential real estate. They have fixed expiration dates as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. We evaluate each customer’s credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis.
 
Overdraft lines of credit on checking accounts are unsecured. Linked to any Bank personal checking account, the line will automatically make a deposit to the customer’s checking account if the balance falls below the amount needed to pay an item presented for payment.
 
As of March 31, 2014, we had one outstanding commitment, a thirty-year fixed-rate mortgage loan that is a loan held for sale at 5.125%. As of December 31, 2013, we had one outstanding commitment to make a ten-year mortgage loan at a fixed rate of 3.125%. Loan commitments expire 60 days from the date of the commitment.
 
For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, we engaged in no off-balance sheet transactions reasonably likely to have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
 
5.
Borrowings
 
The Bank has a line of credit from the FHLB of Atlanta. The line is secured by the FHLB of Atlanta stock and a blanket lien on mortgages. The borrowing limit is defined as a percentage of total assets. Each borrowing is evaluated on a case-by-case basis by the lender. The FHLB unused credit line amounted to $6.5 million and $942,000 at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.
 
At March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, outstanding borrowings with the FHLB were $25.0 million. Borrowings at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 consisted of $25.0 million long-term fixed rate FHLB advances with interest rates ranging from 2.59% to 3.71%.
 
At March 31, 2014, $18.5 million matures in 4 to 5 years and $6.5 million matures in more than five years.

ESOP
 
In 2004, the Bank reorganized to a federally chartered stock savings bank and established the ESOP for its employees. The ESOP acquired 116,630 shares of the Company’s common stock with funds provided by a loan from the Company, to be repaid principally from the Bank’s contributions to the ESOP with twenty equal annual installments through 2024, bearing interest at the Wall Street Journal prime rate adjusted monthly. Shares are released to participants proportionately as the loan is repaid. The Bank recognizes compensation expense as shares are committed for release from collateral at their current market price. Dividends on allocated shares are recorded as a reduction of retained earnings and dividends on unallocated shares are recorded as a reduction of debt. The compensation cost for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 was $311 and $1,312, respectively. The ESOP holds the common stock in a trust for allocation among participating employees and on an annual basis a contribution is allocated from the Bank to the participants’ accounts. There were $62,689 and 64,147 of unearned ESOP shares at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The fair value of unearned ESOP shares at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was estimated to be $16,000 and $14,000, respectively.
 
The total of released unearned ESOP shares was $14,000 for both three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013. The difference between the amounts released from unearned ESOP shares and the compensation cost was $14,000 and $14,000, and was charged to paid-in-capital in during three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
 
All employees of the Bank who attain the age of 21 and complete one year of service with the Bank are eligible to participate in the ESOP. Each participant’s vested interest under the ESOP is determined according to the following schedule: 0% for less than 5 years of service with the Company and 100% for more than 5 years of service. For vesting purposes, a year of service means any plan year in which an employee completes at least 1,000 hours of service (whether before or after the ESOP’s January 1, 2004 effective date). Vesting accelerates to 100% upon a participant’s attainment of normal retirement age 65, death or disability.
 
10.
Regulatory Requirements
 
The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank's assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting principles. The Bank's capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total and Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tangible and Core (leverage) capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined).
 
On January 7, 2014, the Comptroller issued a Consent Order, discussed in Note 2, against the Bank that stated the Bank shall achieve and maintain by March 31, 2014, a Tier 1 (Core) Capital Ratio equal to or greater than 9% and a Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio equal to or greater than 14%. As of March 31, 2014, the Bank’s Tier 1 (Core) Capital Ratio was 2.09%, which is less than the 9% required, and the Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio was 5.13%, which is less than the 14% required at March 31, 2014.

Fair Value Measurements and Fair Values for Financial Instruments
 
Management uses its best judgment in estimating the fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities; however, there are inherent weaknesses in any estimation technique. Therefore, for substantially all assets and liabilities, the fair value estimates herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could have realized in sale transactions on the dates indicated. The estimated fair value amounts have been measured as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 and have not been re-evaluated or updated for purposes of these financial statements subsequent to those respective dates. As such, the estimated fair values of these assets and liabilities subsequent to the respective reporting dates may be different than the amounts reported at each year-end.
 
The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation methods used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
 
Level 1 - Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
 
Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are active, and model derived valuations in which significant inputs or significant drivers are observable in active markets.
 
Level 3 - Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant drivers are unobservable.
 
An asset’s or liability’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
 
No financial instruments were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis at March 31, 2014 or December 31, 2013.
 
For assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis, the fair value measurements by level within the fair value hierarchy used at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 are as follows:

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
 
The following information should not be interpreted as an estimate of the fair value of the entire Company since a fair value calculation is only provided for a limited portion of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Due to a wide range of valuation techniques and the degree of subjectivity used in making the estimates, comparisons between the Company’s disclosures and those of other companies may not be meaningful. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values of the Company’s assets and liabilities at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013:
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents (Carried at Cost)
 
The carrying value for cash and short-term instruments approximate those assets’ fair values.
 
Time Deposits with Banks (Carried at Cost)
 
The carrying amount of time deposits with banks approximates fair value.
 
Investment and Mortgage-Backed Securities
 
The fair value of investment securities held-to-maturity (carried at amortized cost) 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.
 
FHLB of Atlanta Stock (Carried at Cost)
 
The carrying value of FHLB of Atlanta stock approximates fair value based on redemption provisions of the FHLB of Atlanta.
 
Loans Receivable (Carried at Cost)
 
The fair values of loans (excluding impaired loans) are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using market rates at the statement of financial condition date that reflect the credit and interest rate-risk inherent in the loans. Projected future cash flows are calculated based upon contractual maturity or call dates, projected repayments and prepayments of principal. Generally, for variable rate loans which reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values.
 
Impaired Loans (Generally Carried at Fair Value)
 
Impaired loans are those for which the Company has measured impairment generally based on the fair value of the loan’s collateral. Fair value is generally determined based upon independent third-party appraisals of the properties, or discounted cash flows based upon the expected proceeds. These assets are included as Level 3 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements.
 
Accrued Interest Receivable and Payable (Carried at Cost)
 
The carrying values of accrued interest receivable and accrued interest payable approximate their fair values.

Foreclosed Real Estate (Carried at Lower of Cost or Fair Value Less Estimated Selling Costs)
 
Fair values of foreclosed assets are based on independent third party appraisals of the properties or discounted cash flows based upon the expected sales proceeds upon disposition of the assets. These values were generally determined based on the sales prices of similar properties in the proximate vicinity. These assets are included as Level 3 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
 
Deposit Liabilities (Carried at Cost)
 
The fair values disclosed for demand deposits (e.g., interest and noninterest checking, passbook savings and money market accounts) are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts). Fair values for fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered in the market on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits.
 
Long-Term Debt (Carried at Cost)
 
Fair values of FHLB advances are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on quoted prices for new FHLB advances with similar credit risk characteristics, terms and remaining maturity. These prices obtained from this active market represent a market value that is deemed to represent the transfer price if the liability were assumed by a third party.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments (Disclosed at Cost)
 
Fair values for the Company’s off-balance sheet financial instruments (lending commitments) are based on fees currently charged in the market to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing. At March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 such fees were not material.
