—THE HOLDING COMPANY OF WEST VIEW SAVINGS BANK-

To our Shareholders:

During fiscal 2015, the U.S. and global economies continued to perform at subpar levels. Most recently China, the world’s second largest economy, has experienced a notable slowdown. Perceptions about the Chinese economy has caused increased levels of volatility in the global debt and equity markets. In the United States, the financial markets continue to discern the timing of interest rate increases by the Federal Reserve Open Market Committee.

Throughout fiscal 2015, the Company continued its strategy of balanced growth and risk management. Our total assets grew to $329.7 million, or about 6%, at June 30, 2015 as compared to $309.9 million at June 30, 2014. The $19.8 million of asset growth was primarily comprised of a $16.4 million, or a 55%, increase in net loans receivable and a $2.2 million increase in cash and equivalents. The Company continues to manually underwrite each loan application in order to maintain asset quality.

Net income grew to $1.3 million during fiscal 2015 as compared to $920 thousand in fiscal 2014. The $427 thousand or 46% increase in net income was driven by higher levels of Federal Home Loan Bank stock dividends and interest income combined with lower levels of interest expense. Provisions for loan losses increased due to higher levels of loan volumes. Non-interest expenses continue to be well-controlled.

We would like to thank two retiring board members – Dave Aeberli and Marge VonDerau – for their combined years of service to the Bank. Marge started in our West View branch in 1968 and was always the “go to” person for operations. Dave Aeberli joined the Board of Directors in 1985 and ultimately retired as our Chairman in 2014. While it is nearly impossible to immediately replace Marge’s and Dave’s combined 76 years of service to the Bank – through good and bad times – we would like to welcome two Board members with exceptional community bank credentials. John A. Howard, Jr. was elected to the Board at last year’s annual meeting. John is a retired community bank chief financial officer and CPA. Ed Twomey was elected to the Board in April 2015. Ed brings daily exposure to the financial markets, and a broad mix of financial institution clients and contacts, to the Board.

We thank each of our stakeholders – customers, employees and shareholders – for your continued support.

WVS FINANCIAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

In the normal course of business, we, in an effort to help keep our shareholders and the public informed about our operations, may from time to time issue or make certain statements, either in writing or orally, that are or contain forward-looking statements, as that term is defined in the U.S. federal securities laws. Generally, these statements relate to business plans or strategies, projected or anticipated benefits from acquisitions made by or to be made by us, projections involving anticipated revenues, earnings, profitability or other aspects of operating results or other future developments in our affairs or the industry in which we conduct business. Forward-looking statements may be identified by reference to a future period or periods or by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “anticipated,” “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “estimate” or similar expressions.

Although we believe that the anticipated results or other expectations reflected in our forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, we can give no assurance that those results or expectations will be attained. Forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions (some of which are beyond our control), and as a result actual results may differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ from forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following, as well as those discussed elsewhere herein:

 

   

our investments in our businesses and in related technology could require additional incremental spending, and might not produce expected deposit and loan growth and anticipated contributions to our earnings;

 

   

general economic or industry conditions could be less favorable than expected, resulting in a deterioration in credit quality, a change in the allowance for loan losses or a reduced demand for credit or fee-based products and services;

 

   

changes in the interest rate environment could reduce net interest income and could increase credit losses;

 

   

the conditions of the securities markets could change, which could adversely affect, among other things, the value or credit quality of our assets, the availability and terms of funding necessary to meet our liquidity needs and our ability to originate loans and leases;

 

   

changes in the extensive laws, regulations and policies governing bank holding companies and their subsidiaries could alter our business environment or affect our operations;

 

   

the potential need to adapt to industry changes in information technology systems, on which we are highly dependent, could present operational issues or require significant capital spending;

 

   

competitive pressures could intensify and affect our profitability, including as a result of continued industry consolidation, the increased availability of financial services from non-banks, technological developments such as the internet or bank regulatory reform; and

 

4


   

acts or threats of terrorism and actions taken by the United States or other governments as a result of such acts or threats, including possible military action, could further adversely affect business and economic conditions in the United States generally and in our principal markets, which could have an adverse effect on our financial performance and that of our borrowers and on the financial markets and the price of our common stock.

You should not put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we undertake no obligation to update them in light of new or future events except to the extent required by federal securities laws.

GENERAL

WVS Financial Corp. (the “Company”) is the parent holding company of West View Savings Bank (“West View” or the “Savings Bank”). The Company was organized in July 1993 as a Pennsylvania-chartered unitary bank holding company and acquired 100% of the common stock of the Savings Bank in November 1993.

West View Savings Bank is a Pennsylvania-chartered, FDIC-insured stock savings bank conducting business from six offices in the North Hills suburbs of Pittsburgh. The Savings Bank converted from the mutual to the stock form of ownership in November 1993. The Savings Bank had no subsidiaries at June 30, 2015.

The operating results of the Company depend primarily upon its net interest income, which is determined by the difference between income on interest-earning assets, principally loans, mortgage-backed securities and investment securities, and interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities, which consist primarily of deposits and borrowings. The Company’s net income is also affected by its provision for loan losses, as well as the level of its non-interest income, including loan fees and service charges, and its non-interest expenses, such as compensation and employee benefits, income taxes, deposit insurance and occupancy costs.

Cash Equivalents. Cash on hand and due from banks, and interest-earning demand deposits represent cash equivalents. Cash equivalents increased $2.2 million or 162.7% to $3.6 million at June 30, 2015 from $1.4 million at June 30, 2014. Changes in cash equivalents are influenced by the timing of customer transaction account deposits, the redeployment of funds into other earning assets such as investments or loans, and the repayment of Company borrowings.

Certificates of Deposit. Certificates of deposit decreased $248 thousand or 41.5% to $350 thousand at June 30, 2015 from $598 thousand at June 30, 2014. As part of our asset liability and liquidity management strategies, the Company continued to redeem maturing FDIC insured certificates of deposit with other financial institutions. Proceeds from certificates of deposit were primarily used to fund investment portfolio purchases.

Investments. The Company’s investment portfolio is primarily comprised of U.S. Government Agency bonds, corporate bonds, foreign debt securities, obligations of state and political subdivisions, FHLB stock and mortgaged-backed securities issued by U.S. Government Agencies and private-issuers. See Notes 3 and 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. The Company’s investment portfolio increased $583 thousand or 0.2% to $272.8 million at June 30, 2015 from $272.2 million at June 30, 2014.

Investment securities other than mortgage-backed securities, increased $53.1 million or 105.3% to $103.5 million at June 30, 2015 from $50.4 million at June 30, 2014. This increase was due primarily to purchases of U.S. Government Agency multi step-up notes, investment-grade fixed rate corporate bonds, obligations of state and political subdivisions, U.S. dollar denominated investment-grade fixed-rate foreign bonds, investment grade fixed-rate utility first mortgage bonds, and U.S. dollar denominated investment grade floating-rate foreign bonds totaling $50.9 million, $47.4 million, $6.1 million, $3.3 million, $1.7 million, and $1.6 million, respectively, which were partially offset by early issuer redemptions and maturities totaling $40.4 million of U.S. Government Agency securities, $14.3 million of investment grade corporate bonds, $1.5 million of U.S. dollar denominated investment grade foreign bonds, and $323 thousand of investment grade corporate utility first mortgage bonds. Our investment in Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) stock increased $179 thousand or 2.8% to $6.6 million at June 30, 2015 from $6.4 million at June 30, 2014 due to an increased FHLB stock requirement caused by higher levels of FHLB advances. Investment purchases were primarily funded with cash flows from the mortgage-backed securities portfolio. See “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” beginning on page 17.

Mortgage-backed securities decreased $52.7 million or 24.5% to $162.6 million at June 30, 2015 from $215.3 million at June 30, 2014. This decrease was due primarily to cash repayments on U.S. Government Agency floating rate mortgage-backed securities totaling $75.5 million and $717 thousand in cash repayments on the Company’s private-label floating-rate mortgage-backed securities portfolio, which were partially offset by $23.2 million in purchases of U.S. Government Agency floating-rate mortgage-backed securities.

Net Loans Receivable. Net loans receivable increased $16.4 million or 55.3% to $46.2 million at June 30, 2015, from $29.7 million at June 30, 2014. The increase in net loans was primarily attributable to: increases in single-family real estate loans, multi-family real estate loans, construction loans, home equity loans, and land acquisition and development loans totaling $13.0 million, $3.8 million, $1.2 million, $258 thousand, and $80 thousand, respectively, which were partially offset by decreases in commercial real estate loans, obligations (other than securities and leases) of states and political subdivisions, and commercial loans, totaling $1.1 million, $400 thousand, and $333 thousand, respectively. Due to the stagnant economy, a number of the Company’s small builders have exited the business while others have experienced slow sales of their housing inventories. This slowdown in sales also caused a substantially reduced number of new home starts which adversely impacted originations of new speculative construction loans. The Company continued to more aggressively pursue 15, 20, and 30 year fixed-rate single-family residential real estate loans. The Company also makes available residential

mortgage loans with interest rates which adjust pursuant to a designated index, although customer acceptance has been somewhat limited in the Savings Bank’s market area. We expect that the housing market will continue to modestly grow throughout fiscal 2016. The Company will continue to selectively offer commercial real estate, land acquisition and development, and shorter-term construction loans (primarily on residential properties), and commercial loans on business assets to partially increase interest income while managing credit and interest rate risk. The Company also offers higher yielding multi-family loans to existing, and seasoned prospective, customers. During fiscal 2015, the Company retained all of its loan originations. The Company also partners with the FHLB’s Mortgage Partnership Finance® (“MPF”) Program to make purchase money and refinancing mortgages available to the public. These loans are originated through the Company who then assigns the loans to the MPF Program. This MPF Program relationship allows the Company to earn loan origination fee income and avoid the interest rate risk of retaining long-term fixed rate mortgages with low interest rates on the Company’s balance sheet. Residential loan originations began to increase in fiscal 2014 and 2015, and we expect this trend to continue into fiscal 2016.

Deposits. Total deposits decreased approximately $2.9 million or 2.1% during the year ended June 30, 2015. The Company’s customers primarily reduced CD holdings by transferring funds to more liquid short-term holdings (primarily non-interest bearing checking accounts and savings accounts). Certificates of deposit decreased $3.5 million or 10.1%. Money market accounts decreased by $1.1 million or 4.6%, demand deposits increased $667 thousand or 1.8%, savings accounts increased $664 thousand or 1.5%, and advance payments by borrowers for taxes and insurance increased $374 thousand or 76.2%. See Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements and “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures on Market Risk.”

Borrowed Funds. Borrowed funds increased $20.3 million or 15.0% to $155.6 million during fiscal 2015. The Company’s borrowed funds are comprised of three components: FHLB long-term advances – fixed rate, FHLB long-term advances – variable rate, and short-term borrowings. Short-term borrowings include FHLB short-term advances and other short-term borrowings such as broker repurchase agreements or borrowings from the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland (FRB).

At June 30, 2015, our FHLB long-term fixed rate advances totaled $12.5 million with a weighted-average interest rate of 4.44% and will mature in June 2016 and July 2017. At June 30, 2015, our FHLB long-term variable rate advances totaled $105.3 million, with a weighted average interest rate of 0.30%. These advances will mature within twenty-seven months.

The Company also uses a variety of short-term borrowing sources as part of its asset/liability management program. The actual short-term funding source used, at any given point in time, depends upon factors such as cost, terms, maturity terms and general market conditions. During fiscal 2015, we increased our FHLB short-term borrowings by $14.2 million or 60.1%. We had no other short-term borrowings at June 30, 2015.

Stockholders’ Equity. Total stockholders’ equity increased $255 thousand or 0.8% to $32.0 million at June 30, 2015, compared to $31.8 million at June 30, 2014. The increase in stockholders’ equity was primarily attributable to Company net income of $1.3 million, which was partially offset by the purchase of $548 thousand of unallocated ESOP shares, $329 thousand of cash dividends paid on the Company’s common stock, and $186 thousand paid for the acquisition of Treasury stock, and other comprehensive losses, net of tax, totaling $41 thousand. See the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income and Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of the components of other comprehensive income. Book value per share (tier 1 equity basis) increased from $15.66 at June 30, 2014 to $15.93 at June 30, 2015. On a common equity basis, book value per share increased from $15.45 at June 30, 2014 to $15.70 at June 30, 2015. The Company was able to maintain strong capital ratios during fiscal 2015 to further bolster its balance sheet. Our tier 1 leverage ratio was 10.03% and total risk-based capital ratio was 21.99% at June 30, 2015.

General. The Company reported net income of $1.3 million, $920 thousand and $1.1 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The $427 thousand increase in net income during fiscal 2015 was primarily the result of a $759 thousand increase in net interest income, and a $27 thousand increase in non-interest income, which were partially offset by a $185 thousand increase in income tax expense, a $143 thousand increase in provisions for loan losses, and a $31 thousand increase in non-interest expense. Earnings per share totaled $0.69 (basic and diluted) for fiscal 2015 as compared to $0.45 (basic and diluted) for fiscal 2014. The $160 thousand decrease in net income during fiscal 2014 was primarily the result of an $88 thousand decrease in net interest income, a $104 thousand increase in non-interest expense, a $42 thousand decrease in non-interest income, and a $5 thousand decrease in credit provisions for loan losses, which were partially offset by a $69 thousand decrease in income tax expense. Earnings per share totaled $0.45 (basic and diluted) for fiscal 2014 as compared to $0.52 (basic and diluted) for fiscal 2013.

Rate/Volume Analysis. The following table describes the extent to which changes in interest rates and changes in volume of interest-related assets and liabilities have affected the Company’s interest income and expense during the periods indicated. For each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, information is provided on changes attributable to: (1) changes in volume (change in volume multiplied by prior year rate), (2) changes in rate (change in rate multiplied by prior year volume), and (3) total change in rate and volume. The combined effect of changes in both rate and volume has been allocated proportionately to the change due to rate and the change due to volume.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income is determined by the Company’s interest rate spread (i.e. the difference between the yields earned on its interest-earning assets and the rates paid on its interest-bearing liabilities) and the relative amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income increased by $759 thousand or 17.0% in fiscal 2015 and decreased $88 thousand or 1.9% in fiscal 2014. The increase in fiscal 2015 was the result of a $557 thousand or 9.6% increase in interest and dividend income and a $202 thousand or 14.9% decrease in interest expense. The decrease in net interest income in fiscal 2014 was the result of a $138 thousand or 2.3% decrease in interest and dividend income, which was partially offset by a $50 thousand or 3.6% decrease in interest expense. Fiscal years 2015 and 2014 were favorably impacted by the reduction of fixed interest costs associated with the repayments on our legacy FHLB long-term advances during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014.

Interest Income. Total interest income increased by $557 thousand or 9.6% during fiscal 2015 and decreased $138 thousand or 2.3% during fiscal 2014. The increase in fiscal 2015 was primarily the result of higher average balances of net loans receivable and U.S. Government agency mortgage-backed securities, and higher yields earned on FHLB stock and U.S. Government mortgage-backed securities, which were partially offset by lower yields earned on the Company’s loan portfolio, and taxable investment securities. The decrease in fiscal 2014 was primarily the result of lower average balances of investment securities and loans outstanding, and lower yields on the Company’s loan portfolio, which were partially offset by higher average balances of U.S. Government agency mortgage-backed securities and higher yields on the Company’s U.S. Government agency mortgage-backed securities portfolio and FHLB stock. During fiscal 2009, the global economy went into a deep recession and this weakness continued through fiscal 2014. In response to the weak global economy, the world’s central banks implemented a variety of programs including lowering short-term interest rates and various liquidity programs to help restore investor confidence. The overall impact of

 

10


the global recession, central bank intervention efforts and market disruptions was markedly lower interest rates, especially in the short and intermediate term bond markets. Management continuously evaluates market opportunities, and associated borrowing costs, to contribute to net interest income. The Company believes that it has sufficient capital to grow its balance sheet as opportunities become available.

Dividend income on FHLB stock increased $340 thousand or 290.6% during fiscal 2015, and $98 thousand or 515.8% during fiscal 2014. The increase in fiscal 2015 was primarily attributable to a 525 basis point increase in the weighted average yield earned on the Company’s holdings of FHLB stock, and an $820 thousand increase in the average balance of FHLB stock held. The increase in the yield earned during fiscal 2015 was primarily attributable to a $145 thousand special dividend paid by FHLB Pittsburgh during the quarter ended March 31, 2015, and increases in the regular dividend rates paid during fiscal 2015. The increase in fiscal 2014 was primarily attributable to a 189 basis point increase in the weighted average yield earned on the Company’s holding of FHLB stock, which was partially offset by a $780 thousand decrease in the average balance of the Company’s holdings of FHLB stock. The Company’s average holdings of FHLB stock are directly related to the volume of outstanding FHLB advances. During fiscal 2015, the Company purchased approximately $179 thousand (net) of FHLB stock.

Interest income on mortgage-backed securities increased $234 thousand or 9.2% during fiscal 2015 and increased $1.4 million or 119.2% during fiscal 2014. The increase in fiscal 2015 was primarily attributable to an $8.9 million increase in the average balance of U.S. Government agency mortgage-backed securities, and a 6 basis point increase in the weighted average yield earned on the Company’s U.S. Government agency mortgage-backed securities portfolio, which were partially offset by a $615 thousand decrease in the average balance of private-label mortgage-backed securities and a 3 basis point decrease in the weighted average yield earned on the Company’s private-label mortgage-backed securities portfolio. The increase in fiscal 2014 was primarily attributable to a $1.3 million increase in the average balance of U.S. Government agency mortgage-backed securities, and a 13 basis point increase in the weighted average yield on the Company’s mortgage-backed securities portfolio. The average balances associated with the Company’s private label mortgage-backed securities declined $615 thousand and $3.3 million, during fiscal 2015 and fiscal 2014, respectively. For the fiscal years 2015 and 2014, the Company reduced its exposure to private-label mortgage-backed securities due to the substandard investment performance associated with this segment. Proceeds from repayments on the mortgage-backed securities were primarily used to fund investment and mortgage-backed securities purchases during fiscal 2015.

Interest income on net loans receivable increased $61 thousand or 3.9% during fiscal 2015 and decreased $448 thousand or 22.1% during fiscal 2014. The increase in fiscal 2015 was primarily attributable to a $3.1 million increase in the average balances of net loans outstanding, which was partially offset by a 26 basis point decrease in the weight average yield earned on the Company’s loan portfolio. The increase in the loan volumes was primarily attributable to loan originations in excess of repayments. The decrease in the yield on net loans receivable was primarily attributable to lower rates on new loans originated. The decrease in fiscal 2014 was primarily attributable to a 76 basis point decrease in the weighted average yield earned on the Company’s loan portfolio, and a $3.6 million decrease in the average balance of net loans outstanding. The decrease in loan volumes was primarily due to lower average volumes of construction loans and mortgage loans. The decrease in the weighted average yield earned was primarily due to lower levels of payoffs and collections of past due interest on non-accrual loans when compared to fiscal 2013. Prior to fiscal 2014, as part of its asset/liability management strategy, historically low long-term mortgage rates, weakness in the economy, rising inventories of existing homes available for sale, and lower construction starts throughout our lending area, the Company had limited its portfolio origination of longer-term fixed rate loans to mitigate its exposure to a rise in market interest rates and credit risk. The Company began portfolio originations of single-family mortgage loans with longer-term fixed rate loans during fiscal 2014, as well as reoffering multi-family and commercial real estate loans, construction loans, land acquisition and development loans, consumer loans, small business and commercial loans. Overall loan demand, and borrower financial capacity were constrained during both fiscal 2013 and 2012 due to weakness in the national economy. Beginning in fiscal 2014, and throughout fiscal 2015, the Company began to see an increase in single-family and multi-family refinancing loans. During fiscal 2015, the Company also enjoyed higher levels of single-family home purchase loans. Substantially all of our loan originations were fixed-rate with a mix of 15, 20 and 30 year terms.

Interest income on investment securities decreased $74 thousand or 4.7% during fiscal 2015 and $1.2 million or 42.9% during fiscal 2014. The decrease in fiscal 2015 was primarily attributable to a $1.3 million decrease in the average balance of the Company’s investment portfolio, and a 7 basis point decrease in the weighted average yield earned on the Company’s investment portfolio. Investment security maturities and redemptions were primarily used to fund loan growth and purchases of U.S. Government agency mortgage-backed securities during fiscal 2015. The decrease in fiscal 2014 was primarily attributable to a $58.5 million decrease in the average balance of the Company’s investment portfolio, which was partially offset by a 4 basis point increase in the weighted average yield on the Company’s investment portfolio. Investment security maturities and redemptions were used primarily to fund purchases of U.S. Government mortgage-backed securities during fiscal 2014.

Interest income on certificates of deposit decreased $4 thousand or 40.0% during fiscal 2015 and increased $3 thousand or 42.9% during fiscal 2014. The decrease in fiscal 2015 was primarily attributable to a $223 thousand decrease in the average balance of the Company’s holdings of FDIC insured certificates of deposit. The increase in fiscal 2014 was primarily attributable to a 59 basis point increase in the weighted average yield earned on the Company’s holdings of FDIC insured certificates of deposit holdings, which was partially offset by a $51 thousand decrease in the average balance of the Company’s certificate of deposit holdings.

Interest Expense. Total interest expense decreased $202 thousand or 14.9% during fiscal 2015 and decreased $50 thousand or 3.6% during fiscal 2014. The decrease in fiscal 2015 was primarily attributable to decreases in the average balances of FHLB long-term fixed-rate advances, FHLB short-term advances, and time deposits, and lower weighted average rates paid on FHLB long-term fixed-rate advances and savings accounts, which were partially offset by higher average balances of FHLB long-term variable-rate advances, and higher weighted average rates paid on FHLB short-term advances and time deposits. The decrease in the average balance, and weighted average rate paid on, FHLB long-term fixed-rate advances was primarily due to the repayment of $5.0 million of a FHLB long-term fixed rate advance during fiscal 2014. The decrease in the average balance of time deposits was primarily due to the absence of wholesale CDs during fiscal 2015. The decrease in fiscal 2014 was primarily attributable to a 10 basis point decrease in the weighted average rate paid on interest bearing liabilities, which was partially offset by a $9.8 million increase in the average balance of FHLB long-term advances, and a $15.1 million increase in the average balance of time deposits. The repayment of $5.0 million of a FHLB long-term convertible advance during fiscal 2014 significantly reduced the average rate paid on the Company’s interest-bearing liabilities. The increase in the average balance of time deposits was primarily due to the use of wholesale CD’s in fiscal 2014.

Interest expense on FHLB long-term fixed-rate borrowings decreased by $222 thousand or 28.3% during fiscal 2015, and decreased $52 thousand or 6.2% during fiscal 2014. The decrease in fiscal 2015 was primarily attributable to a $4.1 million decrease in the average balance of FHLB long-term fixed-rate advances outstanding and a 24 basis point decrease in the weighted average rate paid on FHLB long-term fixed rate advances. The decrease in fiscal 2014 was primarily attributable to a 4 basis point decrease in the weighted average rate paid on FHLB long-term fixed-rate borrowings, and a $945 thousand decrease in the average balance of FHLB long-term fixed-rate borrowings outstanding.

Interest expense on FHLB short-term borrowings decreased $129 thousand or 63.9% during fiscal 2015, and increased $10 thousand or 5.2% during fiscal 2014. The decrease in fiscal 2015 was primarily attributable to a $55.7 million decrease in the average balance of FHLB short-term borrowings outstanding, which was partially offset by a 6 basis point increase in the weighted average rate paid on FHLB short-term borrowings. The decrease in the average balance of FHLB short-term borrowings are due to the Company’s shift into FHLB long-term variable rate advances. The increase in fiscal 2014 was primarily attributable to a 2 basis point increase in the weighted average rate paid on FHLB short-term borrowings, which was partially offset by a $2.8 million decrease in the average balance on FHLB short-term borrowings outstanding. The decrease in the average balance of FHLB short-term borrowings reflects a shift from FHLB short-term borrowings to other short-term borrowings due to lower short-term borrowing rates available through brokers.

Interest expense on interest-bearing deposits and escrows decreased $113 thousand or 34.2% in fiscal 2015 and decreased $48 thousand or 12.7% in fiscal 2014. The decrease in fiscal 2015 was primarily attributable to a decrease in the average balance of time deposits and lower weighted average rates paid on savings

 

12


accounts, which were partially offset by higher average rates paid on time deposits. Average rates paid on savings accounts decreased 2 basis points while weighted average rates paid on time deposits increased 2 basis points. The average balance of time deposits decreased $22.0 million due to the Company’s exit from the wholesale CD market during fiscal 2014. The decrease in fiscal 2014 was primarily attributable to a decrease in the weighted average rates paid on interest-bearing deposits and escrows which were partially offset by an increase in the average balance of time deposits. Average rates paid on escrows, time deposits, passbooks and money markets decreased 68, 26, 3 and 2 basis points, respectively. Average balances of time deposits increased $15.1 million. The average balance of time deposits increased during fiscal 2014 due to higher utilization of short-term broker deposits. Terms associated with broker deposits were sometimes more favorable during fiscal 2014 than terms offered on short-term borrowings. The Company had no brokered deposits outstanding at June 30, 2015 or 2014.

Interest expense on other short-term borrowings decreased $6 thousand or 54.6% during fiscal 2015, and increased $11 thousand or 100.0% during fiscal 2014. The decrease in fiscal 2015 was primarily attributable to a $3.0 million decrease in the average balance of other short-term borrowings outstanding and an 11 basis point decrease in the weighted average rate paid on other short-term borrowings. The decrease in the average balance of other short-term borrowings reflects the Company’s shift into FHLB long-term variable-rate advances. The increase in fiscal 2014 was primarily attributable to a $4.3 million increase in the average balance of other short-term balances outstanding. The increase in the average balance of other short-term borrowings reflects a shift from FHLB short-term borrowings to other short-term borrowings due to lower short-term borrowing rates available through brokers.

Interest expense on FHLB long-term variable-rate advances increased $268 thousand or 924.1% during fiscal 2015, and increased $29 thousand or 100.0% during fiscal 2014. The increase in fiscal 2015 was primarily attributable to a $93.6 million increase in the average balance of FHLB long-term variable-rate advances outstanding and a 1 basis point increase in the weighted-average rate paid. The increase in fiscal 2014 was primarily attributable to a $10.8 million increase in the average balance of FHLB long-term variable-rate advances outstanding. The Company began using FHLB long-term variable-rate advances during fiscal 2014 to pay down FHLB short-term advances and to lock in longer-term variable rate funding for its variable rate mortgage-backed securities.

Provision for Loan Losses. A provision for loan losses is charged, or accreted to earnings to bring the total allowance to a level considered adequate by management to absorb potential losses in the portfolio. Management’s determination of the adequacy of the allowance is based on periodic evaluations of the loan portfolio considering past experience, current economic conditions, volume, growth, composition of the loan portfolio and other relevant factors. The Company recorded provisions for loan losses totaling $70 thousand in fiscal 2015, and credit provisions totaling $73 thousand in fiscal 2014. The provision for loan losses recorded in fiscal 2015 was primarily attributable to an increase in the Company’s loan portfolio during the fiscal year, and the absence of a $109 thousand credit provision on a paid-off non-performing loan which was recorded in fiscal 2014. The credit provision for 2014 was primarily attributable to the payoff in full of one impaired single-family construction loan, which was partially offset by a higher provision for single-family loans due to growth in that segment.

Non-interest Income. Total non-interest income increased by $27 thousand or 5.1% in fiscal 2015 and decreased by $42 thousand or 7.3% in fiscal 2014. The increase in fiscal 2015 was primarily attributable to a $25 thousand increase in ATM and debit card related income, a $4 thousand increase in earnings on bank-owned life insurance, and the absence of $19 thousand in impairment losses on private-label mortgage-backed securities, which were partially offset by a $22 thousand decrease in service charges on deposits. The decrease in fiscal 2014 was primarily attributable to the absence of $101 thousand in recognized gains on the sale of two single-family real estate owned properties in fiscal 2013, the absence of $46 thousand of recognized gains on the sale of investment securities in fiscal 2013, an $11 thousand decrease in ATM fee income, and a $7 thousand increase in net impairment losses recognized in earnings related to the Company’s private label mortgage-backed securities, which were partially offset by a $136 thousand increase in earnings on bank-owned life insurance.

 

13


Non-interest Expense. Total non-interest expense increased $31 thousand or 0.8% in fiscal 2015, and increased $104 thousand or 2.9% during fiscal 2014. The increase in fiscal 2015 was primarily attributable to increases in ATM and debit card related expenses, employee related expenses, and provisions for off-balance sheet (loan origination) commitments, which were partially offset by recoveries of legal fees related to a paid off non-performing home equity line of credit, and decreases in federal deposit insurance premiums, charitable contributions eligible for PA tax credits, and occupancy and equipment costs. The increase in fiscal 2014 was primarily attributable to increases in employee related expenses, federal deposit insurance premiums, and depreciation expense related to the planned Windows® 7 upgrade to the Company’s personal computers and ATMs, which were partially offset by decreases in charitable contributions eligible for PA tax credits, provisions for losses on off-balance sheet (loan origination) commitments and other real estate owned expenses.

Income Taxes. Income taxes increased $185 thousand during fiscal 2015 and decreased $69 thousand during fiscal 2014. The increase in fiscal 2015 was due to increased levels of taxable income, while the decrease in fiscal 2014 was due to lower levels of taxable income. The Company’s combined effective tax rate was 32.8% for the year ended June 30, 2015 and 34.0% for the year ended June 30, 2014.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity is often analyzed by reviewing the cash flow statement. Cash and cash equivalents increased by $2.2 million during fiscal 2015 primarily due to $16.3 million of net cash provided by financing activities, and by $1.6 million of net cash provided by operating activities, which were partially offset by $15.7 million of net cash used for investing activities.

Funds provided by financing activities totaled $16.3 million for fiscal 2015 as compared to $21.2 million provided by financing activities in fiscal 2014. Primary sources of funds for fiscal 2015 were a $14.2 million increase in FHLB short-term advances, and a $6.1 million increase in FHLB long-term variable-rate advances, which were partially offset by a $3.0 million decrease in total deposits, $504 thousand in increase in unallocated ESOP shares, $329 thousand in cash dividends paid on the Company’s common stock, and $186 thousand in purchases of treasury stock. Management has determined that it currently is maintaining adequate liquidity and continues to match funding sources with lending and investment opportunities.

Funds provided by operating activities totaled $1.6 million during fiscal 2015 as compared to $3.3 million during fiscal 2014. Net cash provided by operating activities was primarily comprised of $1.3 million of net income, $756 thousand of amortization and accretion of discounts, premiums and deferred loan fees, $91 thousand in depreciation, and $70 thousand of provisions for loan losses, which were partially offset by a $560 thousand increase in accrued interest receivable, and $140 thousand of earnings on bank-owned life insurance.

Funds used for investing activities totaled $15.7 million during fiscal 2015 as compared to $25.0 million used for investing activities during fiscal 2014. Primary uses of funds during fiscal 2015 included purchases of investments and mortgage-backed securities totaling $110.9 million, and $21.2 million, respectively, a $16.7 million increase in net loans receivable, and net purchases of FHLB stock totaling $179 thousand, which were partially offset by repayments of investments, and mortgage-backed securities totaling $56.6 million, and $76.2 million, respectively. Investment purchases were comprised primarily of U.S. Government Agency mortgage-backed securities and debentures, and investment grade corporate bonds.

The Company’s primary sources of funds are deposits, repayments on existing loans, investment portfolio cash flow, funds from operations and funds obtained through various borrowings. At June 30, 2015, the total approved loan commitments outstanding amounted to $4.2 million. At the same date, commitments under unused letters and lines of credit amounted to $6.4 million and the unadvanced portion of construction loans approximated $5.5 million. Certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in one year or less at June 30, 2015, totaled $22.9 million. Management believes that a significant portion of our local maturing deposits will remain with the Company.

Historically, the Company used its sources of funds primarily to meet its ongoing commitments to pay maturing certificates of deposit and savings withdrawals, fund loan commitments and maintain a substantial portfolio of investment securities. The Company has been able to generate sufficient cash through FHLB advances, other borrowings and the retail and broker deposit markets to provide the cash utilized in investing and financing activities. Management believes that the Company currently has adequate liquidity available to respond to liquidity demands.

On July 28, 2015, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.04 per share payable on August 20, 2015 to shareholders of record at the close of business on August 10, 2015. Dividends are subject to determination and declaration by the Board of Directors, which take into account the Company’s financial condition, statutory and regulatory restrictions, general economic conditions and other factors. There can be no assurance that dividends will in fact be paid on the common stock in the future or that, if paid, such dividends will not be reduced or eliminated in future periods.

The Company’s ratio of total capital to risk weighted assets, Tier 1 capital to risk weighted assets, and Common equity Tier 1 capital to risk weighted assets were 21.99%, 21.75%, and 21.75%, respectively, at June 30, 2015. The Company’s ratio of Tier 1 capital to average total assets was 10.03% at June 30, 2015.

Non-performing assets consist of non-accrual loans and real estate owned. A loan is placed on non-accrual status when, in the judgment of management, the probability of collection of interest is deemed insufficient to warrant further accrual. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, previously accrued but uncollected interest is deducted from interest income. The Company normally does not accrue interest on loans past due 90 days or more, however, interest may be accrued if management believes that it will collect on the loan.

The Company’s non-performing assets at June 30, 2015 totaled approximately $309 thousand or 0.09% of total assets compared to $607 thousand or 0.20% of total assets at June 30, 2014. The $298 thousand decrease in non-performing assets during the twelve months ended June 30, 2015 was primarily attributable to the payoff in full of one non-performing home equity line of credit totaling $150 thousand, the transfer to real estate owned and subsequent sale of one non-performing single-family loan totaling $139 thousand, and principal payments on one non-performing single-family loan totaling $139 thousand. Non-performing assets at June 30, 2015 consisted of one single-family real estate loan totaling $260 thousand, and one commercial real estate loan totaling $49 thousand.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices. The consolidated financial statements of the Company and related notes presented herein have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles which require the measurement of financial condition and operating results in terms of historical dollars, without considering changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation.

Unlike most industrial companies, substantially all of the assets and liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a more significant impact on a financial institution’s performance than the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the

 

15


same direction or in the same magnitude as the prices of goods and services since such prices are affected by inflation to a larger degree than interest rates. In the current interest rate environment, liquidity and the maturity structure of the Company’s assets and liabilities are critical to the maintenance of acceptable performance levels.

QUANTATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company’s primary market risk exposure is interest rate risk and, to a lesser extent, liquidity risk. All of the Company’s transactions are denominated in US dollars with no specific foreign exchange exposure. The Savings Bank has no agricultural loan assets and therefore would not have a specific exposure to changes in commodity prices. Any impacts that changes in foreign exchange rates and commodity prices would have on interest rates are assumed to be exogenous and will be analyzed on an ex post basis.

Interest rate risk (“IRR”) is the exposure of a banking organization’s financial condition to adverse movements in interest rates. Accepting this risk can be an important source of profitability and shareholder value, however excessive levels of IRR can pose a significant threat to the Company’s earnings and capital base. Accordingly, effective risk management that maintains IRR at prudent levels is essential to the Company’s safety and soundness.

Evaluating a financial institution’s exposure to changes in interest rates includes assessing both the adequacy of the management process used to control IRR and the organization’s quantitative level of exposure. When assessing the IRR management process, the Company seeks to ensure that appropriate policies, procedures, management information systems and internal controls are in place to maintain IRR at prudent levels with consistency and continuity. Evaluating the quantitative level of IRR exposure requires the Company to assess the existing and potential future effects of changes in interest rates on its consolidated financial condition, including capital adequacy, earnings, liquidity, and, where appropriate, asset quality.

The Federal Open Market Committee (“Committee” or “FOMC”) issued a press release on October 29, 2014 which announced the Committee’s current assessments of the U.S. economy and the FOMC’s decision to conclude its Asset Purchase Program (“Program”). The Program included purchases of U.S. Government bonds and U.S. Government Agency mortgage-backed securities. The Committee further decided to maintain its present policy of reinvesting principal payments from its securities holdings and to rollover maturing U.S. Treasury securities at auction. The FOMC believes that the policy of keeping its holdings of longer-term securities at sizeable levels should help maintain accommodative financial conditions.

The Committee further stated that it will likely be appropriate to maintain the 0 to 1/4 percent target range for the federal funds rate for a considerable time following the end of its Asset Purchase Program – especially if projected inflation continues to run below the Committee’s 2 percent longer-run goal and provided that the longer-term inflation expectations remain well anchored.

Throughout fiscal year 2015, the Company continued to adjust its asset/liability management tactics by increasing total assets by about $19.8 million while continuing to manage its Tier 1 capital. The primary segments of asset growth for fiscal year 2015 were: investment securities – available for sale, $38.5 million; net loans receivable, $16.4 million; investment securities held to maturity, $14.6 million; and cash and cash equivalents, $2.2 million, which were partially offset by decreases in mortgage-backed securities held to maturity - $52.7 million. We anticipate growing our asset base to the range of $330 - $350 million during fiscal 2016, subject to economic and market conditions.

Financial institutions derive their income primarily from the excess of interest collected over interest paid. The rates of interest an institution earns on its assets and owes on its liabilities generally are established contractually for a period of time. Since market interest rates change over time, an institution is exposed to lower profit margins (or losses) if it cannot adapt to interest-rate changes. For example, assume that an institution’s assets carry intermediate- or long-term fixed rates and that those assets were funded with short-term liabilities. If market interest rates rise by the time the short-term liabilities must be refinanced, the increase in the institution’s interest expense on its liabilities may not be sufficiently offset if assets continue to earn at the long-term fixed rates. Accordingly, an institution’s profits could decrease on existing assets because the institution will either have lower net interest income or, possibly, net interest expense. Similar risks exist when assets are subject to contractual interest-rate ceilings, or rate sensitive assets are funded by longer-term, fixed-rate liabilities in a decreasing-rate environment.

During the fiscal years 2013, 2014 and 2015, intermediate and long-term market interest rates fluctuated considerably. Many central banks, including the Federal Reserve, continued above normal levels of monetary accommodation including quantitative easing and targeted asset purchase programs. The desired outcomes of these programs are to stimulate aggregate demand, reduce high levels of unemployment and to further lower market interest rates.

The table below shows the targeted federal funds rate and the benchmark two and ten year treasury yields at quarter ends beginning in June 30, 2007, and extending through June 30, 2015. The difference in yields on the two year and ten year Treasury’s is often used to determine the steepness of the yield curve and to assess the term premium of market interest rates.

These changes in intermediate and long-term market interest rates, the changing slope of the Treasury yield curve, and higher levels of interest rate volatility have impacted prepayments on the Company’s loan, investment and mortgage-backed securities portfolios. Principal repayments on the Company’s loan, investment, and mortgage-backed securities portfolios for the twelve months ended June 30, 2015, totaled $8.8 million, $56.6 million, and $76.2 million, respectively. Despite stagnant global interest rates

and Treasury yields the Company continued to grow its balance sheet and used proceeds from maturities/calls of corporate bonds and U.S. Government agency bonds, repayments on its mortgage-backed securities, and borrowings to purchase U.S. Government agency bonds, U.S. Government agency CMOs, and investment grade corporate bonds, and fund loan growth. In particular, the Company increased its investment securities – available for sale portfolio allocation from $28.4 million at June 30, 2014 to $66.9 million at June 30, 2015, its investment securities held to maturity portfolio from $22.0 million at June 30, 2014 to $36.6 million at June 30, 2015, and its net loans receivable from $29.7 million at June 30, 2014 to $46.2 million at June 30, 2015.

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, the Company increased its loan portfolio by $16.4 million or 54.6% as follows: portfolios of single-family real estate loans - $13.0 million, multi-family real estate loans - $3.8 million, construction loans - $1.2 million, consumer loans - $248 thousand, and land acquisition and development loans - $80 thousand, which were partially offset by decrease in its portfolio of commercial real estate loans of $1.1 million, obligations (other than securities and leases) of states and political subdivisions of $400 thousand, and commercial loans of $333 thousand. The Company also makes available for origination residential mortgage loans with interest rates which adjusts pursuant to a designated index, although customer acceptance has been somewhat limited in the Savings Bank’s market area. We expect that the housing market will modestly grow throughout fiscal 2016. The Company will continue to selectively offer commercial real estate, land acquisition and development, and shorter-term construction loans (primarily on residential properties), and commercial loans on business assets to partially increase interest income while limiting credit and interest rate risk. The Company has also offered higher yielding commercial and small business loans to existing customers and seasoned prospective customers.

During fiscal 2015, principal investment purchases were comprised of: callable U.S. Government agency multiple step-up bonds with initial lock out periods of 1-4 months - $50.9 million with a weighted average yield to call of 3.17%; investment grade corporate bonds - $47.4 million with a weighted average yield of 1.46%; U.S. Government agency floating-rate CMOs - $23.2 million with a weighted average yield of 1.66%; taxable municipal bonds - $6.1 million with a weighted average yield of 2.69%; U.S. dollar denominated investment-grade fixed-rate corporate bonds of large foreign issuers - $3.3 million with a weighted average yield of 1.53%; investment grade fixed rate corporate utility first mortgage bonds - $1.7 million with a weighted average yield of 1.71%; and U.S. dollar denominated investment grade floating-rate corporate bonds of large foreign issuers - $1.6 million with a weighted average yield of 1.48%. Single step-up bonds have one “step” or increase in coupon. Multiple step-up bonds have more than one “step” or increase in coupon.

Major investment proceeds received during fiscal 2015 were: callable U.S. Government agency bonds - $40.4 million with a weighted average yield of approximately 1.77%; investment grade corporate bonds - $14.3 million with a weighted average yield of approximately 1.85%; investment grade corporate utility first mortgage bonds - $323 thousand with a weighted average yield of 1.28%.

As of June 30, 2015, the implementation of these asset and liability management initiatives resulted in the following:

 

  1) $164.6 million or 49.9% of the Company’s assets were comprised of floating rate investment and mortgage-backed securities. Of this $164.6 million, approximately $162.4 million float on a monthly basis based upon changes in the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and about $2.0 million reprice on a quarterly basis based upon the three-month LIBOR.

 

  2) $162.6 million or 66.4% of the Company’s total investment portfolio was comprised of floating rate mortgage-backed securities (including collateralized mortgage obligations – “CMOs”) that reprice on a monthly basis;

 

  3) $62.8 million or 25.6% of the Company’s investment portfolio consisted of investment grade fixed-rate corporate bonds with remaining maturities as follows: 3 months or less - $1.6 million or 2.5%; 3 – 12 months - $9.2 million or 14.7%; 1 – 2 years - $45.4 million or 72.2%; 2 – 3 years - $5.5 million or 8.8%; 3 – 5 years - $1.1 million or 1.8% and over 5 years - $1.0 million or 1.8%;

 

  4) $27.4 million or 11.2% of the Company’s investment portfolio was comprised of callable U.S. Government Agency multiple step-up bonds which are callable in less than 6 months. These bonds may or may not actually be redeemed prior to maturity (i.e. called) depending upon the level of market interest rates at their respective call dates;

 

19


  5) $66.9 million or 20.3% of the Company’s assets were comprised of investment securities classified as available for sale;

 

  6) $6.1 million or 1.8% of the Company’s investment portfolio was comprised of obligations of state and political subdivisions;

 

  7) An aggregate of $12.8 million or 27.6% of the Company’s net loan portfolio had adjustable interest rates or maturities of less than 12 months;

 

  8) Approximately $100.3 million of the Company’s total FHLB long-term advances of $117.8 million are comprised of floating rate instruments which adjust on a monthly basis based upon changes in the one-month LIBOR;

 

  9) Approximately $5.0 million of the Company’s total FHLB long-term advances of $117.8 million are comprised of floating rate instruments which adjust on a quarterly basis based upon changes in the three-month LIBOR; and

 

  10) The maturity distribution of the Company’s borrowings is as follows: 3 months or less - $37.8 million or 24.3%;
3 – 12 months - $101.7 million or 65.4%; and 2 – 3 years - $16.1 million or 10.3%.

The effect of interest rate changes on a financial institution’s assets and liabilities may be analyzed by examining the “interest rate sensitivity” of the assets and liabilities and by monitoring an institution’s interest rate sensitivity “gap”. An asset or liability is said to be interest rate sensitive within a specific time period if it will mature or reprice within a given time period. A gap is considered positive (negative) when the amount of rate sensitive assets (liabilities) exceeds the amount of rate sensitive liabilities (assets). During a period of falling interest rates, a negative gap would tend to result in an increase in net interest income. During a period of rising interest rates, a positive gap would tend to result in an increase in net interest income.

As part of its asset/liability management strategy, the Company maintained an asset sensitive financial position due to unusually low market interest rates. An asset sensitive financial position may benefit earnings during a period of rising interest rates and reduce earnings during a period of declining interest rates.

During fiscal 2015, the Company managed its one-year interest sensitivity gap primarily by: (1) purchasing $23.2 million of floating-rate U.S. Government agency CMOs which reprice monthly; and (2) increasing by approximately $6.1 million, the Company’s long-term variable rate borrowings that reprice within three months. At June 30, 2015, investments available for sale totaled $66.9 million, or 20.3% of total assets.

The following table illustrates the Company’s estimated stressed cumulative repricing gap – the difference between the amount of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities expected to reprice at a given point in time – at June 30, 2015. The table estimates the impact of an upward or downward change in market interest rates of 100 and 200 basis points.

The Company utilizes an income simulation model to measure interest rate risk and to manage interest rate sensitivity. The Company believes that income simulation modeling may enable the Company to better estimate the possible effects on net interest income due to changing market interest rates. Other key model parameters include: estimated prepayment rates on the Company’s loan, mortgage-backed securities and investment portfolios; savings decay rate assumptions; and the repayment terms and embedded options of the Company’s borrowings.

The following table presents the simulated impact of a 100 and 200 basis point upward or downward (parallel) shift in market interest rates on net interest income, return on average equity, return on average assets and the market value of portfolio equity at June 30, 2015. This analysis was done assuming that the interest-earning assets will average approximately $334 million and $351 million over a projected twelve and twenty-four month period, respectively, for the estimated impact on change in net interest

income, return on average equity and return on average assets. The estimated changes in market value of equity were calculated using balance sheet levels at June 30, 2015. Actual future results could differ materially from our estimates primarily due to unknown future interest rate changes and the level of prepayments on our investment and loan portfolios and future FDIC regular and special assessments.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization

WVS Financial Corp. (“WVS” or the “Company”) is a Pennsylvania-chartered unitary bank holding company which owns 100 percent of the common stock of West View Savings Bank (“West View” or the “Savings Bank”). The operating results of the Company depend primarily upon the operating results of the Savings Bank and, to a lesser extent, income from interest-earning assets such as investment securities.

West View is a Pennsylvania-chartered, FDIC-insured stock savings bank conducting business from six offices in the North Hills suburbs of Pittsburgh. The Savings Bank’s principal sources of revenue originate from its portfolio of residential real estate and commercial mortgage loans as well as income from investment and mortgage-backed securities.

The Company is supervised by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, while the Savings Bank is subject to regulation and supervision by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) and the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities.

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of WVS and its wholly owned subsidiary, West View. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accounting and reporting policies of WVS and West View conform to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The Company’s fiscal year-end for financial reporting is June 30. For regulatory and income tax reporting purposes, WVS reports on a December 31 calendar year basis.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the Consolidated Balance Sheet date and revenues and expenses for that period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Investment and Mortgage-Backed Securities

Investment and mortgage-backed securities are classified at the time of purchase as securities held to maturity or securities available for sale based on management’s ability and intent. Investment and mortgage-backed securities acquired with the ability and intent to hold to maturity are stated at cost adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, which are computed using the level-yield method and recognized as adjustments of interest income. Amortization rates for mortgage-backed securities are periodically adjusted to reflect changes in the prepayment speeds of the underlying mortgages. Certain other investment and equity securities have been classified as available for sale to serve principally as a source of liquidity. Unrealized holding gains and losses for available-for-sale securities are reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, net of tax, until realized. Realized securities gains and losses are computed using the specific identification method. Interest and dividends on investment and mortgage-backed securities are recognized as income when earned.

Common stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank (the “FHLB”) represents ownership in an institution which is wholly owned by other financial institutions. This equity security is accounted for at cost and reported separately on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Investment and Mortgage-Backed Securities (Continued)

 

Management systematically evaluates investment securities for other-than-temporary declines in fair value on at least a quarterly basis. This analysis requires management to consider various factors, which include: (1) duration and magnitude of the decline in value; (2) the credit rating of the issuer or issuers; (3) structure of the security; and (4) the Company’s intent to sell the security or whether it’s more likely than not that the Company would be required to sell the security before its anticipated recovery in market value.

The Company retains an independent third party to assist it in the determination of fair values for its private-label collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”). This valuation is meant to be a “Level Three” valuation as defined by ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. The valuation does not represent the actual terms or prices at which any party could purchase the securities. There is currently no active secondary market for private-label CMOs and there can be no assurance that any secondary market for private-label CMOs will develop. The Company believes that the private-label CMO portfolio had three other than temporary impairments at June 30, 2015.

The Company believes that the data and assumptions used to determine the fair values are reasonable. The fair value calculations reflect relevant facts and market conditions. Events and conditions occurring after the valuation date could have a material effect on the private-label CMO segment’s fair value.

Net Loans Receivable

Net loans receivable are reported at their principal amount, net of the allowance for loan losses and deferred loan fees. Interest on mortgage, consumer, and commercial loans is recognized on the accrual method. The Company’s general policy is to stop accruing interest on loans when, based upon relevant factors, the collection of principal or interest is doubtful, regardless of the contractual status. Interest received on nonaccrual loans is recorded as income or applied against principal according to management’s judgment as to the collectability of such principal.

Loan origination and commitment fees, and all incremental direct loan origination costs, are deferred and recognized over the contractual remaining lives of the related loans on a level-yield basis.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses represents the amount which management estimates is adequate to provide for probable losses inherent in its loan portfolio. The allowance method is used in providing for loan losses. Accordingly, all loan losses are charged to the allowance, and all recoveries are credited to it. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged to operations. The provision for loan losses is based on management’s periodic evaluation of individual loans, economic factors, past loan loss experience, changes in the composition and volume of the portfolio, and other relevant factors. The estimates used in determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, including the amounts and timing of future cash flows expected on impaired loans, are particularly susceptible to changes in the near term.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Allowance for Loan Losses (Continued)

 

Impaired loans are commercial and commercial real estate loans for which it is probable the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The Company individually evaluates such loans for impairment and does not aggregate loans by major risk classifications. The definition of “impaired loans” is not the same as the definition of “nonaccrual loans,” although the two categories overlap. The Company may choose to place a loan on nonaccrual status due to payment delinquency or uncertain collectability, while not classifying the loan as impaired if the loan is not a commercial or commercial real estate loan. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status and collateral value. The amount of impairment for these types of impaired loans is determined by the difference between the present value of the expected cash flows related to the loan, using the original interest rate, and its recorded value, or as a practical expedient in the case of collateralized loans, the difference between the fair value of the collateral and the recorded amount of the loans. When foreclosure is probable, impairment is measured based on the fair value of the collateral.

Mortgage loans on one-to-four family properties and all consumer loans are large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans and are measured for impairment collectively. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays, which are defined as 90 days or less, generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays on a case-by-case basis taking into consideration all circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed.

Real Estate Owned

Real estate owned acquired through foreclosure is carried at the lower of cost or fair value minus estimated costs to sell. Costs relating to development and improvement of the property are capitalized, whereas costs of holding such real estate are expensed as incurred. Valuation allowances for estimated losses are provided when the carrying value of the real estate acquired exceeds the fair value.

Premises and Equipment

Land is carried at cost, while premises and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is principally computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, which range from 3 to 10 years for furniture and equipment and 25 to 50 years for building premises. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or their respective lease terms, which range from 7 to 15 years. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged against income as incurred. Costs of major additions and improvements are capitalized.

Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed based on the difference between the financial statement and the income tax basis of assets and liabilities using the enacted marginal tax rates. Deferred income taxes or benefits are based on the changes in the deferred tax asset or liability from period to period.

The Company files a consolidated federal income tax return. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are reflected at currently enacted income tax rates applicable to the period in which such items are expected to be realized or settled. As changes in tax rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes.

Earnings Per Share

The Company provides dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share are calculated by dividing net income available to common stockholders, adjusted for the effects of any dilutive securities, by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, adjusted for the effects of any dilutive securities.

Stock Options

The Company accounts for stock compensation based on the grant-date fair value of all share-based payment awards that are expected to vest, including employee share options to be recognized as employee compensation expense over the requisite service period.

The Company’s 2008 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) permits the grant of stock options or restricted shares to its directors and employees for up to 152,000 shares (up to 38,000 restricted shares may be issued). Option awards are generally granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company’s stock at the date of grant; those option awards generally vest based on five years of continuous service and have ten-year contractual terms.

During the periods ended June 30, 2015, 2014, and 2013, the Company recorded $0, $7 thousand, and $20 thousand, respectively, in compensation expense related to our share-based compensation awards. As of June 30, 2015, there was no unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested share-based compensation awards granted in fiscal 2009, as all options issued have fully vested.

For purposes of computing results, the Company estimated the fair values of stock options using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The model requires the use of subjective assumptions that can materially affect fair value estimates. The fair value of each option is amortized into compensation expense on a straight line basis between the grant date for the option and each vesting date. The fair value of each stock option granted was estimated using the following weighted-average assumptions:

 

Assumptions

    

Volatility

     7.49% to 11.63%

Interest Rates

     2.59% to   3.89%

Dividend Yields

     3.94% to   4.02%

Weighted Average Life (in years)

   10

The Company had 0, 0 and 27,229 non-vested stock options outstanding at June 30, 2015, 2014, and 2013, respectively. The Company had the last 27,229 non-vested options vest during fiscal 2014.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

The Company is required to present comprehensive income (loss) and its components in a full set of general-purpose financial statements for all periods presented. Other comprehensive income (loss) is composed exclusively of net unrealized holding gains (losses) on its available-for-sale securities portfolio, and the net non-credit component of other-than-temporary impairment on its held-to-maturity private-label CMO portfolio.

Cash Flow Information

Cash and cash equivalents include cash and due from banks and interest-earning demand deposits with original maturities of 90 days or less. Cash flow from loans, deposits, and short-term borrowings are reported net.

Reclassification of Comparative Figures

Certain comparative amounts for prior years have been reclassified to conform to current-year presentations. Such reclassifications did not affect net income or stockholders’ equity.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-01, Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Qualified Affordable Housing Projects. The amendments in this Update permit reporting entities to make an accounting policy election to account for their investments in qualified affordable housing projects using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met. Under the proportional amortization method, an entity amortizes the initial cost of the investment in proportion to the tax credits and other tax benefits received and recognizes the net investment performance in the income statement as a component of income tax expense (benefit). The amendments in this Update should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. A reporting entity that uses the effective yield method to account for its investments in qualified affordable housing projects before the date of adoption may continue to apply the effective yield method for those preexisting investments. The amendments in this Update are effective for public business entities for annual periods and interim reporting periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. Early adoption is permitted. This Update is not expected have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-04, Receivables – Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40): Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure. The amendments in this Update clarify that an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs, and a creditor is considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan, upon either (1) the creditor obtaining legal title to the residential real estate property upon completion of a foreclosure or (2) the borrower conveying all interest in the residential real estate property to the creditor to satisfy that loan through completion of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or through a similar legal agreement. Additionally, the amendments require interim and annual disclosure of both (1) the amount of foreclosed residential real estate property held by the creditor and (2) the recorded investment in consumer mortgage loans collateralized by residential real estate property that are in the process of foreclosure according to local requirements of the applicable jurisdiction. The amendments in this Update are effective for public business entities for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. An entity can elect to adopt the amendments in this Update using either a modified retrospective transition method or a prospective transition method. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (a new revenue recognition standard). The Update’s core principle is that a company will recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In addition, this update specifies the accounting for certain costs to obtain or fulfill a contract with a customer and expands disclosure requirements for revenue recognition. This Update is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. The Company is evaluating the effect of adopting this new accounting Update.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-11, Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860): Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosures. The amendments in this Update change the accounting for repurchase-to-maturity transactions to secured borrowing accounting. For repurchase financing arrangements, the amendments require separate accounting for a transfer of a financial asset executed contemporaneously with a repurchase agreement with the same counterparty, which will result in secured borrowing accounting for the repurchase agreement. The amendments also require enhanced disclosures. The accounting changes in this Update are effective for the first interim or annual period beginning after December 15, 2014. An entity is required to present changes in accounting for transactions outstanding on the effective date as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. Earlier application is prohibited. The disclosure for certain transactions accounted for as a sale is required to be presented for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and the disclosure for repurchase agreements, securities lending transactions, and repurchase-to-maturity transactions accounted for as secured borrowings is required to be presented for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and for interim periods beginning after March 15, 2015. The disclosures are not required to be presented for comparative periods before the effective date. The Company has included the disclosures related to this Update in Note 14.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-12, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments when the Terms of an Award Provide that a Performance Target Could Be Achieved After the Requisite Service Period. The amendments require that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. The amendments in this Update are effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Earlier adoption is permitted. Entities may apply the amendments in this Update either (a) prospectively to all awards granted or modified after the effective date or (b) retrospectively to all awards with performance targets that are outstanding as of the beginning of the earliest annual period presented in the financial statements and to all new or modified awards thereafter. If retrospective transition is adopted, the cumulative effect of applying this Update as of the beginning of the earliest annual period presented in the financial statements should be recognized as an adjustment to the opening retained earnings balance at that date. Additionally, if retrospective transition is adopted, an entity may use hindsight in measuring and recognizing the compensation cost. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-14, Receivables – Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40). The amendments in this Update require that a mortgage loan be derecognized and that a separate other receivable be recognized upon foreclosure if the following conditions are met: (1) the loan has a government guarantee that is not separable from the loan before foreclosure, (2) at the

time of foreclosure, the creditor has the intent to convey the real estate property to the guarantor and make a claim on the guarantee, and the creditor has the ability to recover under that claim, and (3) at the time of foreclosure, any amount of the claim that is determined on the basis of the fair value of the real estate is fixed. Upon foreclosure, the separate other receivable should be measured based on the amount of the loan balance (principal and interest) expected to be recovered from the guarantor. The amendments in this Update are effective for public business entities for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40). The amendments in this Update provide guidance in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. The amendments in this Update are effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In November 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-16, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Determining Whether the Host Contract in a Hybrid Financial Instrument Issued in the Form of a Share Is More Akin to Debt or to Equity (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). This ASU clarifies how current U.S. GAAP should be interpreted in subjectively evaluating the economic characteristics and risks of a host contract in a hybrid financial instrument that is issued in the form of a share. Public business entities are required to implement the new requirements in fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In November 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-17, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Pushdown Accounting. The amendments in this Update apply to the separate financial statements of an acquired entity and its subsidiaries that are a business or nonprofit activity (either public or nonpublic) upon the occurrence of an event in which an acquirer (an individual or an entity) obtains control of the acquired entity. An acquired entity may elect the option to apply pushdown accounting in the reporting period in which the change-in-control event occurs. If pushdown accounting is not applied in the reporting period in which the change-in-control event occurs, an acquired entity will have the option to elect to apply pushdown accounting in a subsequent reporting period to the acquired entity’s most recent change-in-control event. The amendments in this Update are effective on November 18, 2014. After the effective date, an acquired entity can make an election to apply the guidance to future change-in-control events or to its most recent change-in-control event. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-01, Income Statement – Extraordinary and Unusual Items, as part of its initiative to reduce complexity in accounting standards. This Update eliminates from GAAP the concept of extraordinary items. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. A reporting entity may apply the amendments prospectively. A reporting entity also may apply the amendments retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Early adoption is permitted provided that the guidance is applied from the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810). The amendments in this Update affect reporting entities that are required to evaluate whether they should consolidate certain legal entities. All legal entities are subject to reevaluation under the revised consolidation model. Specifically, the amendments (1) Modify the evaluation of whether limited partnerships and similar legal entities are variable interest entities (VIEs) or voting interest entities; (2) Eliminate the presumption that a general partner should consolidate a limited partnership; (3) Affect the consolidation analysis of reporting entities that are involved with VIEs, particularly those that have fee arrangements and related party relationships; (4) Provide a scope exception from consolidation guidance for reporting entities with interests in legal entities that are required to comply with or operate in accordance with requirements that are similar to those in Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 for registered money market funds. The amendments in this Update are effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. For all other entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Interest-Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30), as part of its initiative to reduce complexity in accounting standards. To simplify presentation of debt issuance costs, the amendments in this Update require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in this Update. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. An entity should apply the new guidance on a retrospective basis, wherein the balance sheet of each individual period presented should be adjusted to reflect the period-specific effects of applying the new guidance. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-04, Compensation-Retirement Benefits (Topic 715), as part of its initiative to reduce complexity in accounting standards. For an entity with a fiscal year-end that does not coincide with a month-end, the amendments in this Update provide a practical expedient that permits the entity to measure defined benefit plan assets and obligations using the month-end that is closest to the entity’s fiscal year-end and apply that practical expedient consistently from year to year. The practical expedient should be applied consistently to all plans if an entity has more than one plan. The amendments in this Update are effective for public business entities for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. Earlier application is permitted. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-05, Intangible – Goodwill and Other Internal Use Software (Topic 350-40), as part of its initiative to reduce complexity in accounting standards. This guidance will

help entities evaluate the accounting for fees paid by a customer in a cloud computing arrangement. The amendments in this Update provide guidance to customers about whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license. If a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license, then the customer should account for the software license element of the arrangement consistent with the acquisition of other software licenses. If a cloud computing arrangement does not include a software license, the customer should account for the arrangement as a service contract. For public business entities, the Board decided that the amendments will be effective for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015. For all other entities, the amendments will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods in annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted for all entities. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-06, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260):Effects on Historical Earnings per Unit of Master Limited Partnership Dropdown Transactions. Topic 260, Earnings Per Share, contains guidance that addresses master limited partnerships that originated from Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 07-4, Application of the Two-Class Method under FASB Statement No. 128 to Master Limited Partnerships. Under Topic 260, master limited partnerships apply the two-class method of calculating earnings per unit because the general partner, limited partners, and incentive distribution rights holders each participate differently in the distribution of available cash in accordance with the contractual rights contained in the partnership agreement. The amendments in this Update specify that for purposes of calculating historical earnings per unit under the two-class method, the earnings (losses) of a transferred business before the date of a dropdown transaction should be allocated entirely to the general partner. In that circumstance, the previously reported earnings per unit of the limited partners (which is typically the earnings per unit measure presented in the financial statements) would not change as a result of the dropdown transaction. Qualitative disclosures about how the rights to the earnings (losses) differ before and after the dropdown transaction occurs for purposes of computing earnings per unit under the two-class method also are required. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier application is permitted. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In May 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-07, Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent). The Update applies to reporting entities that elect to measure the fair value of an investment using the net asset value per share (or its equivalent) practical expedient. Under the amendments in this Update, investments for which fair value is measured at net asset value per share (or its equivalent) using the practical expedient should not be categorized in the fair value hierarchy. Removing those investments from the fair value hierarchy not only eliminates the diversity in practice resulting from the way in which investments measured at net asset value per share (or its equivalent) with future redemption dates are classified, but also ensures that all investments categorized in the fair value hierarchy are classified using a consistent approach. Investments that calculate net asset value per share (or its equivalent), but for which the practical expedient is not applied will continue to be included in the fair value hierarchy. A reporting entity should continue to disclose information on investments for which fair value is measured at net asset value (or its equivalent) as a practical expedient to help users understand the nature and risks of the investments and whether the investments, if sold, are probable of being sold at amounts different from net asset value. The amendments in this Update are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years. A reporting

entity should apply the amendments retrospectively to all periods presented. The retrospective approach requires that an investment for which fair value is measured using the net asset value per share practical expedient be removed from the fair value hierarchy in all periods presented in an entity’s financial statements. Earlier application is permitted. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In May 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-08, Business Combinations – Pushdown Accounting – Amendment to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 115. This ASU was issued to amend various SEC paragraphs pursuant to the issuance of Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 115. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In May 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-09, Financial Services-Insurance (Topic 944) – Disclosure about Short-Duration Contracts. The amendments apply to all insurance entities that issue short-duration contracts as defined in Topic 944, Financial Services-Insurance. The amendments require insurance entities to disclose for annual reporting periods certain information about the liability for unpaid claims and claim adjustment expenses. The amendments also require insurance entities to disclose information about significant changes in methodologies and assumptions used to calculate the liability for unpaid claims and claim adjustment expenses, including reasons for the change and the effects on the financial statements. Additionally, the amendments require insurance entities to disclose for annual and interim reporting periods a rollforward of the liability for unpaid claims and claim adjustment expenses, described in Topic 944. For health insurance claims, the amendments require the disclosure of the total of incurred-but-not-reported liabilities plus expected development on reported claims included in the liability for unpaid claims and claim adjustment expenses. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. For all other entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In June 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-10, Technical Corrections and Improvements. The amendments in this Update represent changes to clarify the Codification, correct unintended application of guidance, or make minor improvements to the Codification that are not expected to have a significant effect on current accounting practice or create a significant administrative cost to most entities. Transition guidance varies based on the amendments in this Update. The amendments in this Update that require transition guidance are effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. All other amendments will be effective upon the issuance of this Update. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

4. MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES

Mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) include mortgage pass-through certificates (“PCs”) and collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”). With a pass-through security, investors own an undivided interest in the pool of mortgages that collateralize the PCs. Principal and interest are passed through to the investor as they are generated by the mortgages underlying the pool. PCs and CMOs may be insured or guaranteed by Freddie Mac (“FHLMC”), Fannie Mae (“FNMA”), and the Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”). CMOs may also be privately issued with varying degrees of credit enhancements. A CMO reallocates mortgage pool cash flow to a series of bonds (called traunches) with varying stated maturities, estimated average lives, coupon rates, and prepayment characteristics.

The Company’s CMO portfolio is comprised of two segments: CMOs backed by U.S. Government Agencies (“Agency CMOs”) and CMOs backed by single-family whole loans not guaranteed by a U.S. Government Agency (“Private-Label CMOs”).

At June 30, 2015, the Company’s Agency CMOs totaled $160.6 million as compared to $212.8 million at June 30, 2014. The Company’s private-label CMOs totaled $2.0 million at June 30, 2015 as compared to $2.5 million at June 30, 2014. The $52.7 million decrease in the CMO segment of our MBS portfolio was primarily due to repayments on our U.S. Government agency CMO portfolio totaling $75.5 million, and $717 thousand in repayments on our private-label CMOs, which were partially offset by purchases of U.S. Government Agency CMOs totaling $23.2 million, and $188 thousand in amortization of non-credit unrealized holding losses on private-label CMOs with other-than-temporary impairment. At June 30, 2015, approximately $162.6 million or 100.0% (book value) of the Company’s MBS portfolio, including CMOs, were comprised of adjustable or floating rate investments, as compared to $215.3 million or 100.0% at June 30, 2014. Substantially all of the Company’s floating rate MBS adjust monthly based upon changes in the one month LIBOR. The Company has no investment in multi-family or commercial real estate based MBS.

Due to prepayments of the underlying loans, and the prepayment characteristics of the CMO traunches, the actual maturities of the Company’s MBS are expected to be substantially less than the scheduled maturities.

The Company retains an independent third party to assist it in the determination of a fair value for three of its private-label CMOs. This valuation is meant to be a “Level Three” valuation as defined by ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. The valuation does not represent the actual terms or prices at which any party could purchase the securities. There is currently no active secondary market for private-label CMOs and there can be no assurance that any secondary market for private-label CMOs will develop. The private-label CMO portfolio had three previously recorded other-than-temporary impairments at June 30, 2015. During the fiscal year ending June 30, 2015, the Company reversed $188 thousand of non-credit unrealized holding losses on three of its private-label CMOs with OTTI due to principal repayments. During the twelve months ended June 30, 2015, the Company recorded no additional credit impairment charges on its private-label CMO portfolio.

The Company believes that the data and assumptions used to determine the fair values are reasonable. The fair value calculations reflect relevant facts and market conditions. Events and conditions occurring after the valuation date could have a material effect on the private-label CMO segment’s fair value.

For debt securities, impairment is considered to be other than temporary if an entity (1) intends to sell the security, (2) more likely than not will be required to sell the security before recovering its amortized cost basis, or (3) does not expect to recover the security’s entire amortized cost basis (even if the entity does not intend to sell the security). In addition, impairment is considered to be other than temporary if the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the debt security is less than the amortized cost basis of the security (any such shortfall is referred to as a credit loss).

The Company evaluates outstanding available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities in an unrealized loss position (i.e., impaired securities) for OTTI on a quarterly basis. In doing so, the Company considers many factors including, but not limited to: the credit ratings assigned to the securities by the Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organizations (“NRSROs”); other indicators of the credit quality of the issuer; the strength of the provider of any guarantees; the length of time and extent that fair value has been less than amortized cost; and whether the Company has the intent to sell the security or more likely than not will be required to sell the security before its anticipated recovery. In the case of its private-label residential MBS, the Company also considers prepayment speeds, the historical and projected performance of the underlying loans and the credit support provided by the subordinate securities. These evaluations are inherently subjective and consider a number of quantitative and qualitative factors.

The following table presents a roll-forward of the credit loss component of the amortized cost of mortgage-backed securities that we have written down for OTTI and the credit component of the loss that is recognized in earnings. OTTI recognized in earnings for credit impaired mortgage-backed securities is presented as additions in two components based upon whether the current period is the first time the mortgage-backed security was credit-impaired (initial credit impairment) or is not the first time the mortgage-backed security was credit impaired (subsequent credit impairments). The credit loss component is reduced if we sell, intend to sell or believe that we will be required to sell previously credit-impaired mortgage-backed securities. Additionally, the credit loss component is reduced if we receive cash flows in excess of what we expected to receive over the remaining life of the credit impaired mortgage-backed securities, the security matures or is fully written down.

During the twelve months ended June 30, 2015, the Company recorded no credit impairment charge, and no non-credit unrealized holding loss to accumulated other comprehensive loss. The Company was able to accrete back into other comprehensive income $124 thousand (net of income tax effect of $64 thousand), based on principal repayments on private-label CMOs previously identified with OTTI.

In the case of its private-label residential CMOs that exhibit adverse risk characteristics, the Company employs models to determine the cash flows that it is likely to collect from the securities. These models consider borrower characteristics and the particular attributes of the loans underlying the securities, in conjunction with assumptions about future changes in home prices and interest rates, to predict the likelihood a loan will default and the impact on default frequency, loss severity and remaining credit enhancement. A significant input to these models is the forecast of future housing price changes for the relevant states and metropolitan statistical areas, which are based upon an assessment of the various housing markets. In general, since the ultimate receipt of contractual payments on these securities will depend upon the credit and prepayment performance of the underlying loans and, if needed, the credit enhancements for the senior securities owned by the Company, the Company uses these models to assess whether the credit enhancement associated with each security is sufficient to protect against likely losses of principal and interest on the underlying mortgage loans. The development of the modeling assumptions requires significant judgment.

In conjunction with our adoption of ASC Topic 820 effective June 30, 2009, the Company retained an independent third party to assist it with assessing its investments within the private-label CMO portfolio. The independent third party utilized certain assumptions for producing the cash flow analyses used in the OTTI assessment. Key assumptions would include interest rates, expected market participant spreads and discount rates, housing prices, projected future delinquency levels and assumed loss rates on any liquidated collateral.

The Company reviewed the independent third party’s assumptions used in the June 30, 2015 OTTI process. Based on the results of this review, the Company deemed the independent third party’s assumptions to be reasonable and adopted them. However, different assumptions could produce materially different results, which could impact the Company’s conclusions as to whether an impairment is considered other-than-temporary and the magnitude of the credit loss. Management believes that no additional private-label CMOs in the portfolio had an other-than-temporary impairment at June 30, 2015, keeping the total at three private-label CMOs with OTTI at June 30, 2015.

6. UNREALIZED LOSSES ON SECURITIES (Continued)

 

If the Company intends to sell an impaired debt security, or more likely than not will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, the impairment is other-than-temporary and is recognized currently in earnings in an amount equal to the entire difference between fair value and amortized cost. The Company does not anticipate selling its private-label CMO portfolio, nor does Management believe that the Company will be required to sell these securities before recovery of this amortized cost basis.

In instances in which the Company determines that a credit loss exists but the Company does not intend to sell the security and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before the anticipated recovery of its remaining amortized cost basis, the OTTI is separated into (1) the amount of the total impairment related to the credit loss and (2) the amount of the total impairment related to all other factors (i.e., the noncredit portion). The amount of the total OTTI related to the credit loss is recognized in earnings and the amount of the total OTTI related to all other factors is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss. The total OTTI is presented in the Consolidated Statement of Income with an offset for the amount of the total OTTI that is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss. Absent the intent or requirement to sell a security, if a credit loss does not exist, any impairment is considered to be temporary.

Regardless of whether an OTTI is recognized in its entirety in earnings or if the credit portion is recognized in earnings and the noncredit portion is recognized in other comprehensive income (loss), the estimation of fair values has a significant impact on the amount(s) of any impairment that is recorded.

The noncredit portion of any OTTI losses on securities classified as available-for-sale is adjusted to fair value with an offsetting adjustment to the carrying value of the security. The fair value adjustment could increase or decrease the carrying value of the security. All of the Company’s private-label CMOs were originally, and continue to be classified, as held to maturity.

In periods subsequent to the recognition of an OTTI loss, the other-than-temporarily impaired debt security is accounted for as if it had been purchased on the measurement date of the OTTI at an amount equal to the previous amortized cost basis less the credit-related OTTI recognized in earnings. For debt securities for which credit-related OTTI is recognized in earnings, the difference between the new cost basis and the cash flows expected to be collected is accreted into interest income over the remaining life of the security in a prospective manner based on the amount and timing of future estimated cash flows.

The Company had investments in 51 positions that were temporarily impaired at June 30, 2015. Based on its analysis, management has concluded that three private-label CMOs were other-than-temporarily impaired, while the remaining securities portfolio has experienced unrealized losses and a decrease in fair value due to interest rate volatility, illiquidity in the marketplace, or credit deterioration in the U.S. mortgage markets.

guidelines. At June 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company had approximately $3.7 million and $2.4 million, respectively, of outstanding loans for land development and construction in the local trade area. Although the Company had a diversified loan portfolio at June 30, 2015 and 2014, loans outstanding to individuals and businesses are dependent upon the local economic conditions in its immediate trade area.

Certain officers, directors, and their associates were customers of, and had transactions with, the Company in the ordinary course of business. There were no loans for those directors, executive officers, and their associates with aggregate loan balances outstanding of at least $60 thousand during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014.

The Company’s loan portfolio also includes troubled debt restructurings (TDRs), where economic concessions have been granted to borrowers who have experienced or are expected to experience financial difficulties. These concessions typically result from the Company’s loss mitigation activities and could include reductions in the interest rate, payment extensions, forgiveness of principal, forbearance or other actions. Certain TDRs are classified as nonperforming at the time of restructure and may only be returned to performing status after considering the borrower’s sustained repayment performance for a reasonable period, generally six months.

The following table includes the recorded investment and number of TDRs for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015. The Company reports the recorded investment in the loans prior to a restructuring and also the recorded investment in the loans after the loans were restructured.

During fiscal 2015, one loan secured by commercial real estate was modified twice by reducing its required payment for a nine month period, then again for an additional twenty-four month period. At June 30, 2015, there were no previously modified TDRs in default.

During fiscal 2014, there were no trouble debt restructurings, and no trouble debt restructurings that subsequently defaulted.

There was one previously modified TDR, totaling $150 thousand, secured by a home equity line of credit, in default as of June 30, 2014. This TDR was fully repaid in fiscal 2015.

When the Company modifies a loan, management evaluates any possible impairment based on the present value of expected future cash flows, discounted at the contractual interest rate of the original loan agreement, except when the sole (remaining) source of repayment for the loan is the operation or liquidation of the collateral. In these cases, management uses the current fair value of the collateral, less selling costs, instead of discounted cash flows. If management determines that the value of the modified loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan (net of previous charge-offs, deferred loan fees or costs and unamortized premium or discount), impairment is recognized by segment or class of loan, as applicable, through an allowance estimate or a charge-off to the allowance. Segment and class status is determined by the loan’s classification at origination.

The allowance for loan losses is established through provisions for loan losses charged against income. Loans deemed to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. The allowance is maintained at a level believed adequate by management to absorb estimated potential loan losses. Management’s determination of the adequacy of the allowance is based on periodic evaluations of the loan portfolio considering past experience, current economic conditions, composition of the loan portfolio and other relevant factors. This evaluation is inherently subjective, as it requires material estimates that may be susceptible to significant change.

Effective December 13, 2006, the FDIC, in conjunction with the other federal banking agencies adopted a Revised Interagency Policy Statement on the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses (“ALLL”). The revised policy statement revised and replaced the banking agencies’ 1993 policy statement on the ALLL. The revised policy statement provides that an institution must maintain an ALLL at a level that is appropriate to cover estimated credit losses on individually evaluated loans determined to be impaired, as well as estimated credit losses inherent in the remainder of the loan and lease portfolio. The banking agencies also revised the policy to ensure consistency with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The revised policy statement updates the previous guidance that describes the responsibilities of the board of directors, management, and bank examiners regarding the ALLL, factors to be considered in the estimation of the ALLL, and the objectives and elements of an effective loan review system.

Federal regulations require that each insured savings institution classify its assets on a regular basis. In addition, in connection with examinations of insured institutions, federal examiners have authority to identify problem assets and, if appropriate, classify them. There are three classifications for problem assets: “substandard”, “doubtful” and “loss”. Substandard assets have one or more defined weaknesses and are characterized by the distinct possibility that the insured institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Doubtful assets have the weaknesses of those classified as substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values questionable, and there is a high possibility of loss. An asset classified as loss is considered uncollectible and of such little value that continuance as an asset of the institution is not warranted. Another category designated “asset watch” is also utilized by the Bank for assets which do not currently expose an insured institution to a sufficient degree of risk to warrant classification as substandard,

doubtful or loss. Assets classified as substandard or doubtful require the institution to establish general allowances for loan losses. If an asset or portion thereof is classified as loss, the insured institution must either establish specific allowances for loan losses in the amount of 100% of the portion of the asset classified loss, or charge-off such amount. General loss allowances established to cover possible losses related to assets classified substandard or doubtful may be included in determining an institution’s regulatory capital, while specific valuation allowances for loan losses do not qualify as regulatory capital.

The Company’s general policy is to internally classify its assets on a regular basis and establish prudent general valuation allowances that are adequate to absorb losses that have not been identified but that are inherent in the loan portfolio. The Company maintains general valuation allowances that it believes are adequate to absorb losses in its loan portfolio that are not clearly attributable to specific loans. The Company’s general valuation allowances are within the following general ranges: (1) 0% to 5% of assets subject to special mention; (2) 5.00% to 100% of assets classified substandard; and (3) 50% to 100% of assets classified doubtful. Any loan classified as loss is charged-off. To further monitor and assess the risk characteristics of the loan portfolio, loan delinquencies are reviewed to consider any developing problem loans. Based upon the procedures in place, considering the Company’s past charge-offs and recoveries and assessing the current risk elements in the portfolio, management believes the allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2015, is adequate.

   Credit Quality Information

The following tables represent credit exposure by internally assigned grades for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014. The grading system analysis estimates the capability of the borrower to repay the contractual obligations of the loan agreements as scheduled or not at all. The Company’s internal credit risk grading system is based on experiences with similarly graded loans.

The Company’s internally assigned grades are as follows:

Pass – loans which are protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or by the value of the underlying collateral.

Special Mention – loans where a potential weakness or risk exists, which could cause a more serious problem if not corrected.

Substandard – loans that have a well-defined weakness based on objective evidence and can be characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Doubtful – loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in a substandard loan. In addition, these weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable, based on existing circumstances.

Loss – loans classified as loss are considered uncollectible, or of such value that continuance as a loan is not warranted.

The primary credit quality indicator used by management in the 1 – 4 family and consumer loan portfolios is the performance status of the loans. Payment activity is reviewed by Management on a monthly basis to determine how loans are performing. Loans are considered to be non-performing when they become 90 days delinquent, have a history of delinquency, or have other inherent characteristics which Management deems to be weaknesses.

8. ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

The Company determines its allowance for loan losses in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The Company uses a systematic methodology as required by Financial Reporting Release No. 28 and the various Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council guidelines. The Company also endeavors to adhere to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 102 in connection with loan loss allowance methodology and documentation issues.

Our methodology used to determine the allocated portion of the allowance is as follows. For groups of homogenous loans, we apply a loss rate to the groups’ aggregate balance. Our group loss rate reflects our historical loss experience. We may adjust these group rates to compensate for changes in environmental factors; but our adjustments have not been frequent due to a relatively stable charge-off experience. The Company also monitors industry loss experience on similar loan portfolio segments. We then identify loans for individual evaluation under ASC Topic 310. If the individually identified loans are performing, we apply a segment specific loss rate adjusted for relevant environmental factors, if necessary, for those loans reviewed individually and considered individually impaired, we use one of the three methods for measuring impairment mandated by ASC Topic 310. Generally the fair value of collateral is used since our impaired loans are generally real estate based. In connection with the fair value of collateral measurement, the Company generally uses an independent appraisal and determines costs to sell. The Company’s appraisals for commercial income based loans, such as multi-family and commercial real estate loans, assess value based upon the operating cash flows of the business as opposed to merely “as built” values. The Company then validates the reasonableness of our calculated allowances by: (1) reviewing trends in loan volume, delinquencies, restructurings and concentrations; (2) reviewing prior period (historical) charge-offs and recoveries; and (3) presenting the results of this process, quarterly, to the Asset Classification Committee and the Savings Bank’s Board of Directors. We then tabulate, format and summarize the current loan loss allowance balance for financial and regulatory reporting purposes.

The Company had no unallocated loss allowance balance at June 30, 2015 and 2014.

8. ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES (Continued)

 

The allowance for loan losses represents the amount which management estimates is adequate to provide for probable losses inherent in its loan portfolio. The allowance method is used in providing for loan losses. Accordingly, all loan losses are charged to the allowance, and all recoveries are credited to it. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged to operations. The provision for loan losses is based on management’s periodic evaluation of individual loans, economic factors, past loan loss experience, changes in the composition and volume of the portfolio, and other relevant factors. The estimates used in determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, including the amounts and timing of future cash flows expected on impaired loans, are particularly susceptible to changes in the near term.

The following is a summary of the changes in the allowance for loan losses:

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, the ALLL associated with the construction loan portfolio, multi-family loans, and land acquisition and development loans increased by $49 thousand, $18 thousand and $4 thousand, respectively. The primary reason for the increases in the ALLL associated with these segments was the increases in associated loan balances. The ALLL for consumer loans decreased primarily due to the payoff of one non-performing home equity line of credit. The increase in the ALLL associated with 1 – 4 family permanent loans was primarily associated with an increase in the ALLL associated with new loans booked within this segment, which was partially offset by a decrease in the ALLL associated with the non-performing segment of 1 – 4 family permanent loans. The decrease in the ALLL associated with the commercial real estate and commercial (non-real estate) segments was primarily related to the lower loan balances within these segments. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, the Company also increased its ALLL reserve factors, due to increases in associated loan balances and qualitative factors throughout fiscal 2015, for the following loan segments:

 

Loan Segment

       06/30/2015 Factor    06/30/2014 Factor
    

 

1 – 4 family

  0.35%    0.15%

Construction:

  0.75%    0.15%

5+ family

  1.00%    0.50%

Land acquisition and development

  1.00%    0.75%

The $103 thousand credit provision on construction loans was primarily due to the payoff in full of one single-family construction loan during fiscal 2014.

10. FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK (FHLB) STOCK

The Savings Bank is a member of the FHLB system. As a member, the Savings Bank maintains an investment in the capital stock of the FHLB of Pittsburgh, at cost, in an amount equal to the FHLB’s Acquired Member Asset Purchase Percentage (currently as high as 6.0% or to as low as 0.0%), multiplied by the amount of the Savings Bank’s Acquired Member Assets (MAV Stock), and an amount equal to the FHLB’s Member Loan Stock Purchase Percentage (currently as high as 6.0% or to as low as 2.0%), multiplied by all the loans extended from the FHLB to the Bank (Activity Stock).

Purchases and redemptions of FHLB stock are made directly with the FHLB at par. In 2008, the FHLB suspended both the payment of dividends and the repurchase of excess capital stock. Beginning in the fourth quarter of calendar year 2010, the FHLB partially lifted the suspension with limited repurchases of excess stock. Beginning August 2013, the FHLB began repurchasing excess capital stock on a monthly basis. Beginning in December of 2014, the FHLB began repurchasing excess capital stock on a weekly basis.

Beginning in the first quarter of calendar year 2012, the FHLB began paying dividends at an annualized rate of 0.10% on the average balance of stock held in the prior quarter. In subsequent quarters, the FHLB paid dividends at annualized rates between 0.10% and 4.00%.

Under the new FHLB stock program, the FHLB began paying dividends on both classes of stock at an annualized rate of 4%. Beginning in February 2015, the FHLB paid dividends on the MAV stock at an annualized rate of 3%, and dividends on the Activity stock at an annualized rate of 5%. In February 2015, the FHLB also paid a special dividend on the average balance of all stock held during calendar year 2014 at an annualized rate of 2%. During fiscal years 2015, 2014, and 2013, the Savings Bank received $457 thousand, $117 thousand, and $19 thousand, respectively, in dividends on its holdings of FHLB stock.

The terms of the convertible advances reset to the three-month London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and have various spreads and call dates of three months. The FHLB has the right to convert from a fixed rate to a predetermined floating rate on its conversion date or quarterly thereafter. Should the advance be converted, the Company has the right to pay off the advance without penalty.

The adjustable rate advances adjust either monthly or quarterly, based on the one-month or three-month LIBOR index, and have various spreads to the LIBOR index. The spreads to the applicable LIBOR index range from 0.05% to 0.17%. The adjustable rate advances are not convertible or callable. The FHLB advances are secured by the Company’s FHLB stock, mortgage-backed investment securities and loans, and are subject to substantial prepayment penalties.

The Company also utilized revolving and short-term FHLB advances. Short-term FHLB advances generally mature within 90 days, while revolving FHLB advances may be repaid by the Company without penalty. The following table presents information regarding such advances as of June 30:

14. OTHER BORROWINGS

Other borrowings include securities sold under agreements to repurchase with securities brokers (“repurchase agreements”). These borrowings generally mature within 1 to 90 days from the transaction date and require a collateral pledge. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase are stated at the amount of cash received in connection with the transaction. We monitor collateral levels on a continuous basis. We may be required to provide additional collateral based on the fair value of the underlying securities. Securities pledged as collateral under repurchase agreements are maintained with our safekeeping agents.

15. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

Loan Commitments

In the normal course of business, there are various commitments that are not reflected in the Company’s financial statements. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other parties to the financial instruments is represented by the contractual amounts as disclosed. Losses, if any, are charged to the allowance losses on off- balance sheet items. Management minimizes its exposure to credit loss under these commitments by subjecting them to credit approval, review procedures, and collateral requirements, as deemed necessary. Various loan commitments totaling $16.2 million and $11.9 million at June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, represent financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk. The commitments outstanding at June 30, 2015, contractually mature in less than one year.

Loan commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The same credit policies are used in making commitments and conditional obligations as for on-balance sheet instruments. Generally, collateral, usually in the form of real estate, is required to support financial instruments with credit risk.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the loan agreement. These commitments are composed primarily of the undisbursed portion of construction and land development loans (Note 7), residential, commercial real estate, and consumer loan originations.

The exposure to loss under these commitments is limited by subjecting them to credit approval and monitoring procedures. Substantially all commitments to extend credit are contingent upon customers maintaining specific credit standards at the time of the loan funding. Management assesses the credit risk associated with certain commitments to extend credit in determining the level of the allowance for loan losses.

Litigation

The Company is involved with various legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. Management believes the outcome of these matters will have no material effect on the consolidated operations or financial condition of WVS.

 

16. REGULATORY CAPITAL

Federal regulations require the Company and Savings Bank to maintain minimum amounts of capital. Specifically, each is required to maintain certain minimum dollar amounts and ratios of Total and Tier I Capital to Risk-Weighted Assets and of Tier I Capital to Average Total Assets.

In addition to the capital requirements, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act (“FDICIA”) established five capital categories ranging from well capitalized to critically undercapitalized. Should any institution fail to meet the requirements to be considered adequately capitalized, it would become subject to a series of increasingly restrictive regulatory actions.

In July of 2013 the respective U.S. federal banking agencies issued final rules implementing Basel III and the Dodd-Frank Act capital requirements to be fully-phased in on a global basis on January 1, 2019. The new regulations establish a new tangible common equity capital requirement, increase the minimum requirement for the current Tier 1 risk-weighted asset (“RWA”) ratio, phase out certain kinds of intangibles

16. REGULATORY CAPITAL (Continued)

 

treated as capital and certain types of instruments and change the risk weightings of certain assets used to determine required capital ratios. Provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act generally require these capital rules to apply to bank holding companies and their subsidiaries. The new common equity Tier 1 capital component requires capital of the highest quality – predominantly composed of retained earnings and common stock instruments. For community banks, such as West View Savings Bank, a common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 4.5% became effective on January 1, 2015. The new capital rules also increased the current minimum Tier 1 capital ratio from 4.0% to 6.0% beginning on January 1, 2015. In addition, in order to make capital distributions and pay discretionary bonuses to executive officers without restriction, an institution must also maintain greater than 2.5% in common equity attributable to a capital conservation buffer to be phased in from January 1, 2016 until January 1, 2019. The new rules also increase the risk weights for several categories of assets, including an increase from 100% to 150% for certain acquisition, development and construction loans and more than 90-day past due exposures. The new capital rules maintain the general structure of the prompt corrective action rules, but incorporate the new common equity Tier 1 capital requirement and the increased Tier 1 RWA requirement into the prompt corrective action framework.

Bank holding companies are generally subject to statutory capital requirements, which were implemented by certain of the new capital regulations described above that became effective on January 1, 2015. However, the Small Banking Holding Company Policy Statement exempts certain small bank holding companies like the Company from those requirements provided that they meet certain conditions.

As of June 30, 2015, the FDIC categorized the Savings Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be classified as a well capitalized financial institution, Common Equity Tier 1 Capital, Tier 1 Risk-Based, Total Risk-Based, and Tier 1 Leverage Capital Ratios must be at least 6.5 percent, 8 percent, 10 percent, and 5 percent, respectively.

17. STOCK BENEFIT PLANS

Stock Option Plan

The Company maintains the 2008 Stock Incentive Plan for the directors, officers, and employees, which provides for the issuance of up to 152,000 shares of common stock pursuant to the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights and plan share awards of restricted stock. The stock options granted typically have an expiration term of ten years, subject to certain extensions and early terminations. The per share exercise price of an incentive stock option shall at a minimum equal the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date the option is granted. The per share exercise price of a compensatory stock option granted shall at least equal the greater of par value or 100 percent of the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date the option is granted. Proceeds from the exercise of the stock options are credited to common stock for the aggregate par value and the excess is credited to paid-in capital. Up to 38,000 shares of common stock may be granted to non-employee directors and up to 38,000 shares may be granted in the form of share awards of restricted stock.

Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”)

WVS maintains an ESOP for the benefit of officers and Savings Bank employees who have met certain eligibility requirements related to age and length of service. Compensation expense for the ESOP was $116 thousand, $100 thousand, and $115 thousand for the years ended June 30, 2015, 2014, and 2013, respectively. Total ESOP shares as of June 30, 2015 and 2014, were 385,592 and 339,972, respectively.

The following table presents the components of the ESOP shares as of June 30, 2015 and 2014.

 

     2015      2014

Fair value of ESOP shares

   $ 4,530,706       $ 3,698,895   

The purchase of shares of the Company’s stock by the ESOP is funded by a line of credit and a term loan, and contributions from the Company, through the Bank. Unreleased ESOP shares collateralize the loans payable and the cost of these shares is recorded as a contra-equity account in stockholders’ equity of the Company. The ESOP’s line of credit bears a weighted-average interest rate of 3.25% and will convert to a term loan on the earlier of: (i) the last day of the month in which the line is fully disbursed, or (ii) March 31, 2016. The term loan will mature twenty years after conversion. The ESOP’s term loan bears a weighted-average interest rate of 3.25%, and will mature in 2035. Shares are released as principal payments are made by the ESOP on the loans. The ESOP’s sources of repayment on the loans can include dividends, if any, on the unallocated stock held by the ESOP and discretionary contributions from the Bank to the ESOP and other earnings.

Compensation is recognized under the shares released method and compensation expense is equal to the fair value of the shares committed to be released, and unallocated ESOP shares are excluded from outstanding shares for the purpose of computing EPS.

 

18. DIRECTOR, OFFICER, AND EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

Profit Sharing Plan

The Company maintains a non-contributory profit sharing 401(k) plan (the “Plan”) for its officers and employees who have met the age and length of service requirements. The Plan is a defined contribution plan with the contributions based on a percentage of salaries of the Plan participants. The Company made no contributions to the Plan for the three years ended June 30, 2015, 2014, and 2013.

Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan

The Company maintains a deferred compensation plan (the “Plan”) for directors who elect to defer all or a portion of their directors’ fees. Deferred fees are paid to the participants in installments commencing in the year following the year the individual is no longer a member of the Board of Directors.

18. DIRECTOR, OFFICER, AND EMPLOYEE BENEFITS (Continued)

 

The Plan allows for the deferred amounts to be paid in shares of common stock at the prevailing market price on the date of distribution. For fiscal years ended June 30, 2015, 2014, and 2013, 1,731, 1,731, and 1,731 shares, respectively, were held by the Plan.

Amounts deferred are included in other non-interest expense and totaled $27 thousand, $18 thousand, and $0 for the fiscal years 2015, 2014, and 2013, respectively. The aggregate liability for the deferred compensation arrangement at June 30, 2015 and 2014, was $287 thousand and $280 thousand, respectively, and is included in with “other liabilities” in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Bank-Owned Life Insurance (“BOLI”)

The Company has purchased single premium BOLI policies on certain executives. The policies are recorded at their cash surrender values. Increases in cash surrender values are included in noninterest income in the accompanying consolidated statement of income. The Company recorded $140 thousand and $136 thousand of income in fiscal 2015, and 2014, respectively, and the policies’ cash surrender values totaling $4.3 million and $4.1 million at June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, are reflected as an asset on the consolidated balance sheets.

Executive Life Insurance

In fiscal 2014, the Company entered into endorsement split dollar life insurance arrangements (“Split Dollar Life Insurance Agreements”) with three executives. This plan provides each executive a specified death benefit should the executive die while in the Company’s employ. The Company paid the insurance premiums in June and August 2013 and the arrangements were effective in September 2013. The Company owns the policies and all cash values thereunder. Upon death of the covered employee, the agreed-upon amount of death proceeds from the policies will be paid directly to the insured’s beneficiary. As of June 30, 2015, the policies had total death benefits of $10.9 million of which $2.6 million would have been paid to the executive’s beneficiaries and the remaining $8.3 million would have been paid to the Company. A portion of the death benefit coverage may continue to the Company’s CEO in the event of a change in control or other termination of his employment. In the event the other executives terminate employment with the Company, their split dollar interests in the policies cease. The Company accrued a benefit expense of $35 thousand, $28 thousand, and $0 in fiscal 2015, 2014, and 2013, respectively, for the split dollar benefit.

Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”)

On September 1, 2013, the Company entered into a supplemental executive retirement plan (SERP) agreement with the CEO. The plan was targeted to provide him with an annual retirement benefit commencing at age 65. The Company accrued expenses of $111 thousand, $90 thousand, and $0 for fiscal years 2015, 2014, and 2013, respectively, in connection with the SERP.

19. INCOME TAXES (Continued)

 

The Company and its subsidiary file a consolidated federal income tax return. Prior to 1996, the Savings Bank was permitted under the Internal Revenue Code to establish a tax reserve for bad debts, and to make annual additions within specified limitations which may have been deducted in arriving at its taxable income. Subsequent to 1995, the Savings Bank’s bad debt deduction may be computed using an amount based on its actual loss experience (the “experience method”).

U.S. generally accepted accounting principles prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Benefits from tax positions should be recognized in the financial statements only when it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authority that would have full knowledge of all relevant information. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be derecognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is no longer met.

There is currently no liability for uncertain tax positions and no known unrecognized tax benefits. The Company recognizes, when applicable, interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes in the Consolidated Statement of Income. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2012.

The following is a reconciliation between the actual provision for income taxes and the amount of income taxes which would have been provided at federal statutory rates for the years ended June 30:

The Savings Bank is subject to the Pennsylvania Mutual Thrift Institutions Tax, which is calculated at 11.5 percent of earnings.

Prior to the enactment of the Small Business Job Protection Act, the Company accumulated approximately $3.9 million of retained earnings, which represent allocations of income to bad debt deductions for tax purposes only. Since there is no amount that represents the accumulated bad debt reserves subsequent to 1987, no provision for federal income tax has been made for such amount. If any

portion of this amount is used other than to absorb loan losses (which is not anticipated), the amount will be subject to federal income tax at the current corporate rate.

 

20. REGULATORY MATTERS

Cash and Due From Banks

The Federal Reserve requires the Savings Bank to maintain certain reserve balances. The required reserves are computed by applying prescribed ratios to the Savings Bank’s average deposit transaction account balances. As of June 30, 2015 and 2014, the Savings Bank had required reserves of $680 thousand and $651 thousand, respectively. The required reserves are held in the form of vault cash and an interest-bearing depository balance maintained directly with the Federal Reserve.

Loans

Federal law prohibits the Company from borrowing from the Savings Bank unless the loans are secured by specific obligations. Further, such secured loans are limited in amount to 10 percent of the Savings Bank’s capital surplus.

Dividend Restrictions

The Savings Bank is subject to the Pennsylvania Banking Code, which restricts the availability of surplus for dividend purposes. At June 30, 2015, surplus funds of $3.4 million were not available for dividends.

 

21. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for an asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP established a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the use of inputs used in valuation methodologies into the following three levels:

 

Level I:

   Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date.

Level II:

   Pricing inputs are other than the quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. The nature of these assets and liabilities includes items for which quoted prices are available but traded less frequently and items that are fair-valued using other financial instruments, the parameters of which can be directly observed.

Level III:

   Assets and liabilities that have little to no pricing observability as of the reported date. These items do not have two-way markets and are measured using management’s best estimate of fair value, where the inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation.

Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Investment Securities Available-for-Sale

Fair values for securities available for sale are determined by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges or matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely used in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities, but

rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities. The Company has no Level I or Level III investment securities. Level II investment securities were primarily comprised of investment-grade corporate bonds and U.S. dollar-denominated investment-grade corporate bonds of large foreign issuers.

The following tables present the assets reported on a recurring basis on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at their fair value as of June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014, by level within the fair value hierarchy. As required by GAAP, financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

The Company may be required, from time to time, to measure certain financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. These include assets that are measured at the lower of cost or fair value that were recognized at fair value below cost at the end of the period.

Impaired Loans

Loans for which it is probable that payment of interest and principal will not be made in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement are considered impaired. Once a loan is identified as individually impaired, management measures impairment in accordance with ASC Topic 310. The fair value of impaired loans is estimated using one of several methods, including collateral value, liquidation value and discounted cash flows. Those impaired loans not requiring an allowance represent loans for

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

 

21. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (Continued)

 

Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis (Continued)

 

which the fair value of the expected repayments or collateral exceed the recorded investments in such loans. Collateral values are estimated using Level II inputs based on observable market data or Level III inputs based on customized discounting criteria. For a majority of impaired real estate related loans, the Company obtains a current external appraisal. Other valuation techniques are used as well, including internal valuations, comparable property analysis and contractual sales information. The Company has no Level I or Level II impaired loans. Level III impaired loans were primarily comprised of one commercial real estate loan.

Real Estate Owned

Real estate acquired through foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure is carried at fair value less estimated costs to sell. Any reduction from the carrying value of the related loan to fair value at the time of acquisition is accounted for as a loan loss. Any subsequent reduction in fair market value is reflected as a valuation allowance through a charge to income. Costs of significant property improvements are capitalized, whereas costs relating to holding and maintaining the property, are charged to expense. The Company had no Level I, Level II, or Level III real estate owned at June 30, 2015 or 2014.

The following tables present the assets reported on a non-recurring basis on the consolidated balance sheet at their fair value as of June 30, 2015 and 2014, by level within the fair value hierarchy. As required by GAAP, financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

When evaluating the value of the collateral on impaired loans, the Company will consider the age of the most current appraisal, and may discount the appraised value from 1.0% to 15.0%.

The Company classifies financial instruments in Level III of the fair value hierarchy when there is reliance on at least one significant unobservable input to the valuation model. In addition to these unobservable inputs, the valuation model for Level III financial instruments typically also rely on a number of inputs that are readily observable, either directly or indirectly.

 

2  Fair value is generally determined through independent appraisals of the underlying collateral, which generally include various Level III inputs which are not identifiable.
3  Appraisals may be adjusted by management for qualitative factors such as economic conditions. The range and weighted average of appraisal adjustments are presented as a percentage of the appraisals.

Financial instruments are defined as cash, evidence of an ownership interest in an entity, or a contract which creates an obligation or right to receive or deliver cash or another financial instrument from or to a second entity on potentially favorable or unfavorable terms.

Fair value is defined as the amount at which a financial instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. If a quoted market price is available for a financial instrument, the estimated fair value would be calculated based upon the market price per trading unit of the instrument.

If no readily available market exists, the fair value estimates for financial instruments should be based upon management’s judgment regarding current economic conditions, interest rate risk, expected cash flows, future estimated losses, and other factors, as determined through various option pricing formulas or simulation modeling. As many of these assumptions result from judgments made by management based upon estimates, which are inherently uncertain, the resulting estimated values may not be indicative of the amount realizable in the sale of a particular financial instrument. In addition, changes in the assumptions on which the estimated values are based may have a significant impact on the resulting estimated values.

As certain assets and liabilities, such as deferred tax assets, premises and equipment, and many other operational elements of the Company, are not considered financial instruments, but have value, this estimated fair value of financial instruments would not represent the full market value of the Company.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

 

22. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued)

 

Estimated fair values have been determined by the Company using the best available data, as generally provided in internal Savings Bank regulatory, or third party valuation reports, using an estimation methodology suitable for each category of financial instruments. The estimation methodologies used are as follows:

Cash and Cash Equivalents, Certificates of Deposit, Accrued Interest Receivable and Payable, and FHLB Short-term Advances

The fair value approximates the current carrying value.

Investment Securities, Mortgage-Backed Securities, and FHLB Stock

The fair value of investment and mortgage-backed securities is equal to the available quoted market price. If no quoted market price is available, fair value is estimated using the quoted market price for similar securities. For discussion of valuation of private-label CMOs, see Note 6 “Unrealized Losses on Securities”. Since the FHLB stock is not actively traded on a secondary market and held exclusively by member financial institutions, the estimated fair market value approximates the carrying amount.

Net Loans Receivable and Deposits

Fair value for consumer mortgage loans is estimated using market quotes or discounting contractual cash flows for prepayment estimates. Discount rates were obtained from secondary market sources, adjusted to reflect differences in servicing, credit, and other characteristics.

The estimated fair values for consumer, fixed-rate commercial, and multi-family real estate loans are estimated by discounting contractual cash flows for prepayment estimates. Discount rates are based upon rates generally charged for such loans with similar credit characteristics.

The estimated fair value for nonperforming loans is the appraised value of the underlying collateral adjusted for estimated credit risk.

Demand, savings, money market deposit accounts, and advance payments by borrowers for taxes and insurance are reported at book value. The fair value of certificates of deposit is based upon the discounted value of the contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using average market rates for deposits with similar average terms.

Bank Owned Life Insurance

The fair value of BOLI approximates the cash surrender value of the policies at those dates.

FHLB Long-term Advances

The fair values of fixed-rate advances are estimated using discounted cash flows, based on current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements. The carrying amount on variable rate advances approximates their fair value.

Commitments to Extend Credit

These financial instruments are generally not subject to sale, and estimated fair values are not readily available. The carrying value, represented by the net deferred fee arising from the unrecognized commitment, and the fair value, determined by discounting the remaining contractual fee over the term of the commitment using fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements with similar credit risk, is not considered material for disclosure.
