LOUISIANA BANCORP, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
 
NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
The accompanying unaudited financial statements of the Company were prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X and do not include information or footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements have been included. The results of operations for the three month and nine month period ended September 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the entire fiscal year.
 
NATURE OF OPERATIONS
 
Louisiana Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) was organized as a Louisiana corporation on March 16, 2007, for the purpose of becoming the holding company of Bank of New Orleans (the “Bank”).  The Company holds all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the Bank.  The Bank operates in the banking/savings and loan industry and, as such, attracts deposits from the general public and uses such deposits primarily to originate loans secured by first mortgage loans on owner-occupied single-family residences and other properties, as well as those for consumer needs.
 
The Bank is subject to competition from other financial institutions, and is also subject to the regulations of certain Federal agencies and undergoes periodic examinations by those regulatory authorities.
 
SIGNIFICANT GROUP CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK
 
Most of the Company’s activities are with customers located within the greater New Orleans area in Louisiana. Note 2 summarizes the types of securities in which the Company invests.  Note 3 summarizes the types of lending in which the Company engages. The Company does not have any significant concentrations in any one industry or to any one customer.

INVESTMENT SECURITIES
 
Securities are being accounted for in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 320-10, Investments – Debt and Equity Securities.  ASC 320-10, promulgated by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), requires the classification of securities into one of three categories: trading, available-for-sale, or held-to-maturity. Management determines the appropriate classification of debt securities at the time of purchase and re-evaluates these classifications periodically.
 
Available-for-sale securities are stated at market value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of income taxes, reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income until realized. The amortized cost of available-for-sale debt securities is adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts to maturity or, in the case of mortgage-backed securities, over the estimated life of the security.
 
Securities designated as held-to-maturity are stated at cost adjusted for amortization of the related premiums and accretion of discounts, using the interest method. The Company has the positive intent and ability to hold these securities to maturity.
 
The Company held no trading securities as of September 30, 2014 or December 31, 2013.
 
Amortization, accretion and accrued interest are included in interest income on securities. Realized gains and losses, and declines in value judged to be other than temporary, are included in net securities gains or losses. Gains and losses on the sale of securities available-for-sale are determined using the specific-identification method.
 
LOANS
 
The Company grants one-to four-family, multi-family residential, commercial, and land mortgage loans, and consumer and construction loans, and lines of credit to customers. Certain first mortgage loans are originated and sold under loan sale agreements. A substantial portion of the loan portfolio is represented by mortgage loans secured by properties located throughout the greater New Orleans area. The ability of the Company’s debtors to honor their contracts is dependent, in part, upon real estate values and general economic conditions in this area.
 
Loans are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balance adjusted for charge-offs, the allowance for loan losses, and any deferred fees or costs on originated loans. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance.

When the payment of principal or interest on a loan is delinquent for more than 90 days, or earlier in some cases, the loan is placed on non-accrual status, unless the loan is in the process of collection and the underlying collateral fully supports the carrying value of the loan. If the decision is made to continue accruing interest on the loan, periodic reviews are made to confirm the accruing status of the loan.  All interest accrued but not collected on loans placed in non-accrual status or on loans charged-off, is reversed against income.  The interest on these loans is accounted for on the cash basis or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual basis.  Loans are returned to accrual basis when all of the principal and interest contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.
 
The Company considers a loan to be impaired when, based upon current information and events, it believes it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The Company’s impaired loans include performing and non-performing loans on which full payment of principal or interest is not expected. The Company calculates an allowance required for impaired loans based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, or at the loan’s observable market price or the fair value of its collateral.
 
ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
 
The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance available for losses incurred on loans. All losses are charged to the allowance for loan losses when the loss actually occurs or when a determination is made that a loss is likely to occur. Recoveries are credited to the allowance at the time of recovery.
 
The allowance is an amount that represents the amount of probable and reasonably estimable known and inherent losses in the loan portfolio, based on evaluations of the collectibility of loans. The evaluations take into consideration such factors as changes in the types and amount of loans in the loan portfolio, historical loss experience, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral, estimated losses relating to specifically identified loans, and current economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates including, among others, exposure at default, the amount and timing of expected future cash flows on impacted loans, value of collateral, estimated losses on our commercial and residential loan portfolios and general amounts for historical loss experience. All of these estimates may be susceptible to significant change.
 
It should be understood that estimates of future loan losses involve an exercise of judgment. While it is possible that in particular periods, the Company may sustain losses which are substantial relative to the allowance for loan losses, it is the judgment of management that the allowance for loan losses reflected in the accompanying statements of condition is appropriate under U.S. GAAP.
 
LOANS HELD-FOR-SALE
 
Loans held-for-sale include originated mortgage loans intended for sale in the secondary market, which are carried at the lower of cost or estimated market value. Loans held-for-sale are identified at the time of origination, in accordance with the Company’s interest rate risk strategy. In addition, the Company occasionally sells loans that it originates, but cannot hold, due to regulatory limitations on loans to one borrower or concentrations of credit in a particular property type or industry.
 
LOAN FEES, LOAN COSTS, DISCOUNTS AND PREMIUMS
 
Loan origination and commitment fees and certain direct loan origination costs are deferred and amortized as an adjustment to the related loan’s yield using the interest method over the contractual life of the loan.
 
Discounts received in connection with mortgage loans purchased are accreted to income over the term of the loan using the interest method. Premiums on purchased loans are amortized over the term of the loan using the interest method.
 
INCOME TAXES
 
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are reflected at currently enacted income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets and liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes.
 
COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
 
    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 available-for-sale securities, are reported as a separate component of the shareholders’ equity section of the balance sheets, such items, along with income, are components of comprehensive income.

USE OF ESTIMATES
 
In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheets and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to the determination of the allowance for losses on loans and deferred taxes.

NOTE 4 – EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

Earnings per common share (“EPS”) are computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding as prescribed in FASB ASC 260-10, Earnings per Share.  Net income is divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period to calculate basic net earnings per common share.  Diluted earnings per common share are calculated to give effect to dilutive stock options.

NOTE 6 – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company follows the guidance provided in FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements, for all financial assets and liabilities and nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are recognized at fair value in the financial statements.  FASB ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

FASB ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid upon transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability. The fair value should be calculated based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, not on assumptions specific to the entity.  In addition, the fair value of liabilities should include consideration of non-performance risk including our own credit risk.

In addition to defining fair value, FASB ASC 820 expands the disclosure requirements regarding fair value and establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs.  The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three levels based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market.  The level in the fair value hierarchy within which a fair value measurement falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.  These levels are:

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

 
19

 
 
·
Level 2 - Observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data.

 
·
Level 3 - Inputs are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.  The fair values are therefore determined using model-based techniques that include option pricing models, discounted cash flow models, and similar techniques.

The following table presents the Company’s assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.  All of the mortgage-backed securities reported at fair value on September 30, 2014, and December 31, 2013, were secured by first mortgage loans on residential real estate.

Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
 
Forward-Looking Statements
 
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements and information relating to the Company and the Bank that are based on the beliefs of management as well as assumptions made by and information currently available to management. In addition, in portions of this document the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “should” and similar expressions or the negative thereof, as they relate to the Company or the Bank or their management, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements reflect the current views of the Company and/or the Bank with respect to forward-looking events and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described herein as anticipated, believed, estimated, expected or intended. The Company does not intend to update these forward-looking statements.
 
General
 
The Company’s results of operations are primarily dependent on the results of the Bank, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The Bank’s results of operations depend, to a large extent, on net interest income, which is the difference between the income earned on its loan and investment portfolios and the cost of funds, consisting of the interest paid on deposits and borrowings. Results of operations are also affected by provisions for, or recoveries from, the allowance for loan losses, fee income and other non-interest income and non-interest expense. Non-interest expense principally consists of compensation and employee benefits, office occupancy and equipment expense, data processing, advertising and business promotion and other expense. Our results of operations are also significantly affected by general economic and competitive conditions, particularly changes in interest rates, government policies and actions of regulatory authorities. Future changes in applicable law, regulations or government policies may materially impact our financial conditions and results of operations.
 
Critical Accounting Policies
 
In reviewing and understanding financial information for the Company, you are encouraged to read and understand the significant accounting policies used in preparing our financial statements. These policies are described in Note 1 of the notes to our financial statements. The accounting and financial reporting policies of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and to general practices within the banking industry. Accordingly, the financial statements require certain estimates, judgments, and assumptions, which are believed to be reasonable, based upon the information available. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the periods presented. The following accounting policies comprise those that management believes are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results. These policies require numerous estimates or economic assumptions that may prove inaccurate or may be subject to variations which may significantly affect our reported results and financial condition for the period or in future periods.
 
Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged to expense. Loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses when management believes that the collectibility of the principal is unlikely. Subsequent recoveries are added to the allowance. The allowance is an amount that represents the amount of probable and reasonably estimable known and inherent losses in the loan portfolio, based on evaluations of the collectibility of loans. The evaluations take into consideration such factors as changes in the types and amount of loans in the loan portfolio, historical loss experience, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, estimated losses relating to specifically identified loans, and current economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates including, among others, exposure at default, the amount and timing of expected future cash flows on impacted loans, the value of collateral, estimated losses on our commercial and residential loan portfolios and general amounts for historical loss experience. All of these estimates may be susceptible to significant change.
 
While management uses the best information available to make loan loss allowance evaluations, adjustments to the allowance may be necessary based on changes in economic and other conditions or changes in accounting guidance. Historically, our estimates of the allowance for loan loss have not required significant adjustments from management’s initial estimates. In addition, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, as an integral part of its examination processes, periodically reviews our allowance for loan losses. The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency may require the recognition of adjustments to the allowance for loan losses based on its judgment of information available to it at the time of its examinations. To the extent that actual outcomes differ from management’s estimates, additional provisions to the allowance for loan losses may be required that would adversely impact earnings in future periods.

Income Taxes. We make estimates and judgments to calculate some of our tax liabilities and determine the recoverability of some of our deferred tax assets, which arise from temporary differences between the tax and financial statement recognition of revenues and expenses. We also estimate a reserve for deferred tax assets if, based on the available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the recorded deferred tax assets will not be realized in future periods. These estimates and judgments are inherently subjective. Historically, our estimates and judgments to calculate our deferred tax accounts have not required significant revision to our initial estimates.
 
In evaluating our ability to recover deferred tax assets, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including our past operating results, recent cumulative losses and our forecast of future taxable income. In determining future taxable income, we make assumptions for the amount of taxable income, the reversal of temporary differences and the implementation of feasible and prudent tax planning strategies. These assumptions require us to make judgments about our future taxable income and are consistent with the plans and estimates we use to manage our business. Any reduction in estimated future taxable income may require us to record a valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets. An increase in the valuation allowance would result in additional income tax expense in the period and could have a significant impact on our future earnings.
 
Comparison of Financial Condition at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013

Total assets were $321.7 million at September 30, 2014, an increase of $5.0 million compared to December 31, 2013.  During the first nine months of 2014, our asset growth was primarily attributable to a $15.0 million increase in our net loan portfolio, which was partially offset by a $3.1 million decrease in cash and cash equivalents, and a $7.8 million decrease in our securities portfolio.  The net loan portfolio was $262.4 million at September 30, 2014 compared to $247.5 million at December 31, 2013. During the first nine months of 2014, single-family mortgage loans grew by $12.7 million and home equity loans and lines of credit increased by $2.9 million while the remaining sectors of our loan portfolio experienced slight decreases.  Total securities available-for-sale decreased by $2.8 million and total securities held-to-maturity decreased by $5.0 million during the first nine months of 2014.

Total impaired loans were $989,000 at September 30, 2014, a decrease of $339,000 from December 31, 2013.  At both dates our total impaired loans were comprised solely of nonaccrual loans.  At September 30, 2014, our non-performing loans consisted of $106,000 in single-family first mortgage loans, $67,000 in home equity loans and lines of credit, and $816,000 in mortgage loans secured by commercial real estate. At September 30, 2014, the Bank held no assets as real estate owned compared to $568,000 at December 31, 2013.  Total non-performing assets were $989,000 and $1.9 million, respectively at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.  Expressed as a percentage of total assets, nonperforming assets were 0.31% at September 30, 2014 and 0.60% at December 31, 2013.

Total deposits decreased by $7.2 million, to $195.3 million at September 30, 2014 compared to $202.5 million at December 31, 2013.  During the first nine months of 2014, non-interest bearing deposits increased by $3.2 million to $18.3 million, and interest-bearing deposits decreased by $10.4 million to $177.0 million.  The decrease in interest-bearing deposits was primarily due to the outflow of high-balance rate-sensitive certificates of deposit and an expected large withdrawal from one commercial depositor.  Total Federal Home Loan Bank advances were $61.4 million at September 30, 2014, an increase of $10.3 million from December 31, 2013.  This increase in FHLB advances was in the form of short-term advances which were used to offset the out flow of deposits and fund the growth in our loan portfolio during the period.

Total shareholders’ equity was $57.8 million at September 30, 2014 and $57.9 million at December 31, 2013.  Net income of $2.0 million during the first nine months of 2014 was partially offset by treasury stock repurchases and the payment of three quarterly cash dividends.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company acquired 90,109 shares of its common stock at a total cost of $1.8 million pursuant to its repurchase plans. Additionally, the Company paid three quarterly cash dividends of $0.05 per share of common stock, or $376,000 in the aggregate during the first three quarters of 2014.  The Bank’s Tier 1 leverage ratio, Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio, and total risk-based capital were 13.31%, 21.95%, and 23.11%, respectively, at September 30, 2014.  The Bank’s capital ratios reflect a $6 million dividend payable to the Company that was declared on September 30, 2014.  This dividend from the Bank to the Company provided the Company with additional liquidity to execute its capital management strategies including, but not limited to, the payment of cash dividends and to fund future stock repurchase plans.

Comparison of Our Operating Results for the Three Months and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2014 and 2013

General.  Net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2014 was $879,000, an increase of $303,000 from the quarter ended September 30, 2013.  Net interest income was approximately $2.6 million during the third quarter of 2014, an increase of $42,000 compared to the third quarter of 2013.  Between the respective quarterly periods, the average yield on our interest-earning assets declined by four basis points while the average cost of our interest-bearing liabilities decreased ten basis points, resulting in a six basis point increase in the average interest rate spread.  Our net interest margin, which expresses net interest income as a percentage of average interest-earning assets, was 3.30% and 3.26%, respectively, for the three month periods ended September 30, 2014 and September 30, 2013.  In addition, during the third quarter of 2014 compared to the third quarter of 2013, our provisions for loan losses decreased by $66,000 to $30,000, and non-interest income increased by $426,000 to $776,000.  This increase in non-interest income was primarily attributed to a net gain of $361,000 on the disposition of other real estate owned and a $55,000 increase in gains on the sale of loans.

Net income for the nine month period ended September 30, 2014 was $2.0 million, a decrease of $52,000 compared to the nine month period ended September 30, 2013.  Net interest income was approximately $7.5 million, for each of the nine month periods ended September 30, 2014 and 2013.  Our net interest spread during these nine month periods was 2.98% and 3.00%, respectively and our net interest margin was 3.23% and 3.27%, respectively.  Non-interest income for the first nine months of 2014 was $1.5 million compared to $1.8 million during the first nine months of 2013.  Non-interest expense was approximately $5.9 million for each of the nine month periods ended September 30, 2014 and 2013.

Non-interest expense for the first nine months of 2014 was $5.9 million, a decrease of $64,000 compared to the first nine months of 2013.  Salaries and employee benefits cost decreased by $52,000 between the respective nine month periods, to $3.4 million, due primarily to a reduction in the cost of our equity compensation plans and employee health insurance premiums.  Occupancy expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was $1.1 million, an increase of $116,000 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2013.  This increase was attributed to an increase in data processing costs and certain costs associated with the rebuilding of our Metairie-Lakefront branch office.  Our professional fees expense decreased by $72,000, OREO operating costs decreased by $35,000, and advertising expense decreased by $62,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2013.  Other non-interest expenses were $453,000 and $407,000, respectively, for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2014 and 2013.

Income Tax Expense. For the three month period ended September 30, 2014, the Company recorded income tax expense of $453,000, an increase of $139,000 from the three month period ended September 30, 2013. This increase in income tax expense was primarily due to an increase in pre-tax income of $442,000 between the respective quarterly periods.

Income tax expense was $1.0 million based on pre-tax income of $3.1 million during the first nine months of 2014 compared to income tax expense of $1.1 million on pre-tax income of $3.2 million during the first nine months of 2013.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Our primary sources of funds are from deposits, amortization of loans, loan prepayments and the maturity of loans, mortgage-backed securities and other investments, and other funds provided from operations. While scheduled payments from the amortization of loans and mortgage-backed securities and maturing investment securities are relatively predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments can be greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition. We also maintain excess funds in short-term, interest-bearing assets that provide additional liquidity. At September 30, 2014, our cash and cash equivalents amounted to $3.9 million. In addition, at such date our available-for-sale investment and mortgage-backed securities amounted to an aggregate of $2.9 million.
 
We use our liquidity to fund existing and future loan commitments, to fund maturing certificates of deposit and demand deposit withdrawals, to invest in other interest-earning assets, and to meet operating expenses. At September 30, 2014, we had certificates of deposit maturing within the next 12 months amounting to $77.3 million. Based upon historical experience, we anticipate that a significant portion of the maturing certificates of deposit will be redeposited with us.  At September 30, 2014, we had $61.4 million in total borrowings, comprised solely of FHLB advances.
 
In addition to cash flow from loan and securities payments and prepayments as well as from sales of available for sale securities, we have significant borrowing capacity available to fund liquidity needs. In recent years we have utilized borrowings as a cost efficient addition to deposits as a source of funds. As a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas, we pledge residential mortgage loans and mortgage-backed securities as collateral for advances.  At September 30, 2014, the Company had $83.4 million in additional borrowing capacity available through the Federal Home Loan Bank.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices
 
The financial statements, accompanying notes, and related financial data of the Company presented herein have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without considering the changes in purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of operations. Most of our assets and liabilities are monetary in nature; therefore, the impact of interest rates has a greater impact on our performance than the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the prices of goods and services.
 
Item 3 – Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
 
For a discussion of the Company’s asset and liability management policies as well as the methods used to manage its exposure to the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and rates, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – How We Manage Market Risk” at Part II, Item 7 in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.
 
Item 4 – Controls and Procedures.
 
Our management evaluated, with the participation of our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations and are operating in an effective manner.
 
No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
