Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

 

(1) General.  OptimumBank Holdings, Inc. (the “Holding Company”) is a one-bank holding company and owns 100% of OptimumBank (the “Bank”), a Florida-chartered commercial bank. The Bank’s wholly-owned subsidiaries are OB Real Estate Management, LLC, OB Real Estate Holdings, LLC and OB Real Estate Holding 1503, LLC, all of which were formed in 2009; OB Real Estate Holdings 1645 formed in 2010; OB Real Estate Holdings Northwood formed in 2011; OB Real Estate Holdings 1692 and OB Real Estate Holdings 1704 formed in 2012, OB Real Estate Holdings 1501 formed in 2014, OB Real Estate Holdings 1518, LLC and OB Real Estate Holdings 1676 formed in 2015 (collectively, the “Real Estate Holding Subsidiaries”). The Holding Company’s only business is the operation of the Bank and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”). The Bank’s deposits are insured up to applicable limits by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). The Bank offers a variety of commercial banking services to individual and corporate customers through its three banking offices located in Broward County, Florida. The Real Estate Holding Subsidiaries are primarily engaged in holding and disposing of foreclosed real estate. OB Real Estate Management, LLC, OB Real Estate Holdings, LLC and OB Real Estate Holdings 1503, LLC had no activity in 2015 or 2014.
   
  In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company contain all adjustments (consisting principally of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position at September 30, 2015, and the results of operations and cash flows for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
   
  Going Concern Status. The Company is in technical default with respect to its $5,155,000 Junior Subordinated Debenture (“Debenture”). The holders of the debenture could demand payment of the $5,155,000 principal balance plus accrued and unpaid interest totaling $913,000 at September 30, 2015. No adjustments to the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been made as a result of this uncertainty. Management’s plans with regard to this matter are as follows: A Director of the Company had agreed to purchase the Debenture and had agreed to provide a forbearance of the payment to the Company upon consummation of the purchase. Although the agreed upon purchase price for the Debenture had been tendered, the Trustee of the Debenture (the “Trustee”) had received conflicting direction and therefore on December 11, 2014, the Trustee commenced an Action for Interpleader in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Debenture Litigation”). On August 31, 2015, the court held that the Trustee could not sell the Debenture to the Director because certain conditions and requirements set forth in the indenture for the Trust had not been fulfilled. The Director intends to continue his efforts to acquire the Debenture. Based upon the underlying Debenture documents, Management does not believe the Trustee will call a Default at this time. The Company is continuing to pursue regulatory approval for the interest payment and other mechanisms for paying the accrued interest such as raising additional capital.
   
  Comprehensive Income (Loss). Generally accepted accounting principles generally require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net earnings (loss). Although certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities, are reported as a separate component of the equity section of the consolidated balance sheet, such items along with net earnings  (loss), are components of comprehensive income (loss). The only component of other comprehensive income (loss) is the net change in the unrealized gain (loss) on the securities available for sale.
   
  Income Taxes. The Company assessed its earnings history and trends and estimates of future earnings, and determined that the deferred tax asset could not be realized as of September 30, 2015. Accordingly, a valuation allowance was recorded against the net deferred tax asset.
   
  Recent Pronouncements.
  In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update 2015-03, Interest-Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30) - Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. The ASU 2015-03 requires 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. ASU 2015-03 is effective for the first interim or annual period beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption of the ASU 2015-03 is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. The new guidance should be applied 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. Upon transition, an entity is required to comply with the applicable disclosures for a change in an accounting principle. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

  At September 30, 2015, the unrealized losses on 6 investment securities were caused by market conditions. It is expected that the securities would not be settled at a price less than the book value of the investments. Because the decline in fair value is attributable to market conditions and not credit quality, and because the Company has the ability and intent to hold these investments until a market price recovery or maturity, these investments are not considered other-than-temporarily impaired.
   
  Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluation. A security is impaired if the fair value is less than its carrying value at the financial statement date. When a security is impaired, the Company determines whether this impairment is temporary or other-than-temporary. In estimating other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) losses, management assesses whether it intends to sell, or it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell, a security in an unrealized loss position before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either of these criteria is met, the entire difference between amortized cost and fair value is recognized in operations. For securities that do not meet the aforementioned criteria, the amount of impairment recognized in operations is limited to the amount related to credit losses, while impairment related to other factors is recognized in other comprehensive loss. Management utilizes cash flow models to segregate impairments to distinguish between impairment related to credit losses and impairment related to other factors. To assess for OTTI, management considers, among other things, (i) the severity and duration of the impairment; (ii) the ratings of the security; (iii) the overall transaction structure (the Company’s position within the structure, the aggregate, near-term financial performance of the underlying collateral, delinquencies, defaults, loss severities, recoveries, prepayments, cumulative loss projections, and discounted cash flows); and (iv) the timing and magnitude of a break in modeled cash flows.

(3) Loans, Continued. The Company has divided the loan portfolio into six portfolio segments, each with different risk characteristics and methodologies for assessing risk. All loans are underwritten in accordance with written policies set forth and approved by the Board of Directors (“Board”). The portfolio segments identified by the Company are as follows:
   
  Residential Real Estate, Multi-Family Real Estate, Commercial Real Estate, Land and Construction. Residential real estate loans are underwritten based on repayment capacity and source, value of the underlying property, credit history and stability. Multi-family real estate and commercial real estate loans are secured by the subject property and are underwritten based on among other factors, loan to value limits, cash flow coverage and general creditworthiness of the obligors. Land and construction loans to borrowers are to finance the construction of commercial and investment properties. These loans are categorized as construction loans during the construction period, later converting to commercial real estate loans after the construction is complete and amortization of the loan begins. Real estate development and construction loans are approved based on an analysis of the borrower and guarantor, the viability of the project and on an acceptable percentage of the appraised value of the property securing the loan. Real estate development and construction loan funds are disbursed periodically based on the percentage of construction completed. The Company carefully monitors these loans with on-site inspections and requires the receipt of lien waivers on funds advanced. Development and construction loans are typically secured by the properties under development or construction, and personal guarantees are typically obtained. Further, to assure that reliance is not placed solely on the value of the underlying property, the Company considers the market conditions and feasibility of proposed projects, the financial condition and reputation of the borrower and guarantors, the amount of the borrower’s equity in the project, independent appraisals, costs estimates and pre-construction sale information. The Company also makes loans on occasion for the purchase of land for future development by the borrower. Land loans are extended for the future development for either commercial or investment use by the borrower. The Company carefully analyzes the intended use of the property and the viability thereof.
   
  Commercial. Commercial loans are primarily underwritten on the basis of the borrowers’ ability to service such debt from income. The cash flows of borrowers, however, may not be as expected and the collateral securing these loans may fluctuate in value. As a general practice, the Company takes as collateral a security interest in any available real estate, equipment, or other chattel, although loans may also be made on an unsecured basis. Collateralized working capital loans typically are secured by short-term assets whereas long-term loans are primarily secured by long-term assets. These loans are also affected by adverse economic conditions should they prevail within the Company’s local market.
   
  Consumer.  Consumer loans are extended through an existing online consumer credit marketplace that brings together consumers in search of lower cost unsecured installment loans and investors to fund the loans. These loans are fully amortizing with terms of either 36 or 60 months. Risk is mitigated by the fact that the loans are of smaller individual amounts and reliance on sophisticated underwriting and pricing models. Consumer loans are also extended for various purposes, including purchases of automobiles, recreational vehicles, and boats, as well as home improvement loans, lines of credit, personal loans, and deposit account collateralized loans. Repayment of these loans is primarily dependent on the personal income of the borrowers, which can be impacted by economic conditions in their market areas such as unemployment levels. Loans to consumers are extended after a credit evaluation, including the creditworthiness of the borrower(s), the purpose of the credit, and the secondary source of repayment. Consumer loans are made at fixed and variable interest rates and may be made on terms of up to ten years.

  Pass – a Pass loan’s primary source of loan repayment is satisfactory, with secondary sources very likely to be realized if necessary. These are loans that conform in all aspects to bank policy and regulatory requirements, and no repayment risk has been identified.
   
  OLEM (Other Loans Especially Mentioned) – an Other Loan Especially Mentioned has potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in the deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or the Company’s credit position at some future date.
   
  Substandard – a Substandard loan is inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified must have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
   
  Doubtful – a loan classified Doubtful has all the weaknesses inherent in one classified Substandard, with the added characteristics that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.
   
  Loss – a loan classified Loss is considered uncollectible and of such little value that continuance as a bankable asset is not warranted. This classification does not mean that the asset has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but rather it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off this basically worthless asset even though partial recovery may be affected in the future. The Company fully charges off any loan classified as Loss.

  No loans have been determined to be troubled debt restructurings during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 or 2014.

 

(4) Earnings (Loss) Per Share. Basic earnings (loss) per share has been computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and three months ended September 30, 2014 basic and diluted loss per share is the same due to the net loss incurred by the Company. For the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and for the three months ended September 30, 2015 basic and diluted earnings per share are the same because stock options outstanding during the period were not dilutive due to their exercise prices exceeding the fair value of the Company’s common stock during the period. Earnings (loss) per common share have been computed based on the following:

 

   Three Months Ended
September 30,
  Nine Months Ended
September 30,
   2015  2014  2015  2014
Weighted-average number of common shares outstanding used to calculate basic and diluted earnings (loss) per common share   9,558,024    9,152,860    9,519,779    8,470,459

(5) Stock-Based Compensation.  On December 27, 2011, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2011 Equity Incentive Plan (“2011 Plan”). A total of 66,096 (adjusted for one-for-four reverse common stock split) shares of common stock are available to be issued under the 2011 Plan. Options, restricted stock, performance share awards and bonus share awards in lieu of obligations may be issued under the 2011 Plan. Both incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options can be granted under the 2011 Plan. The exercise price of the stock options cannot be less than the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. Options must be exercised within ten years of the date of grant. As of September 30, 2015 494,584 (adjusted for one-for-four reverse common stock split) shares of common stock have been granted under the 2011 Plan as compensation to directors for services rendered. Fair value of the shares of common stock as of the dates of the grants totaled approximately $229,000 and $233,000 during the nine month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Such amounts have been reflected as expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.  Activity in the prior plan is as follows:

  Discussion regarding the assumptions used to compute the estimated fair values of financial instruments can be found in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.
   
 (8) Regulatory Matters. The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the regulatory banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company and Bank’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of its assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.
   
  Effective April 16, 2010, the Bank consented to the issuance of a Consent Order by the FDIC and the OFR. Effective February 28, 2014, the Consent Order was amended (collectively, the “Consent Order”). Pursuant to the Consent Order, the Bank is subject to higher capital ratios. According to the Consent Order, the Bank is deemed to be “adequately capitalized” even if its capital ratios were to exceed those generally required to be a “well capitalized” bank. At September 30, 2015, the Bank is adequately capitalized.

Regulatory Matters, Continued.  Effective January 1, 2015, the Bank became subject to new capital requirements set forth by federal banking regulations. These changes were designed to ensure capital positions remain strong during the events of economic downturns or unforeseen losses. The Company is exempt from consolidated capital requirements as the Federal Reserve Board amended its “small bank holding company” policy statement to generally exempt bank holding companies with less than $1.0 billion in assets from capital requirements.


Under the new capital regulation for the Bank, the minimum capital ratios consist of a common equity tier 1 ratio of 4.5% of risk-weighted assets, a tier 1 capital of 6.0% of risk-weighted assets, a total capital ratio of 8.0% of risk-weighted assets, and a leverage ratio of 4.0%. Common equity tier 1 is generally comprised of common stock, additional paid in capital, and retained earnings.

These new requirements create a new capital ratio for common equity Tier 1 capital and increase the Tier 1 capital ratio requirements. There were changes in the risk weight of certain assets to better reflect the risk associated with those assets, such as the risk weighting for non-performing loans and certain high volatility commercial real estate acquisitions, development and construction loans. The changes also include additional limitations to the inclusion of deferred tax assets in capital. The Bank made a one-time election to exclude accumulated other comprehensive income from regulatory capital in order to reduce the impact of market volatility on regulatory capital.

The following table shows the Bank’s capital amounts and ratios and regulatory thresholds at September 30, 2015 (dollars in thousands):

  The Company is subject to the supervision and regulation of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve”). On June 22, 2010, the Company entered into a written agreement with the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta (“Reserve Bank”) with respect to certain aspects of the operation and management of the Company (the “Written Agreement”).
   
  The Written Agreement contains the following principal requirements:

 

  The Board of the Company must take appropriate steps to fully utilize the Company’s financial and managerial resources to serve as a source of strength to the Bank, including, but not limited to, taking steps to ensure that the Bank complies with the Consent Order entered into with the Florida Office of Financial Regulation (“OFR”) and the FDIC and any other supervisory action taken by the Bank’s state or federal regulator.
     
  The Company may not declare or pay any dividends without prior Reserve Bank and Federal Reserve approval.
     
  The Company may not, directly or indirectly, take dividends or any other form of payment representing a reduction in capital from the Bank without prior Reserve Bank approval.
     
  The Company and its nonconsolidated subsidiary, OptimumBank Holdings Capital Trust I, may not make any distributions of interest, principal, or other sums on subordinated debentures or trust preferred securities without the prior written approval of the Reserve Bank and the Federal Reserve.

  The Company must provide quarterly progress reports to the Reserve Bank, along with parent company only financial statements.

 

  Effective April 16, 2010, the Bank consented to the issuance of a Consent Order by the FDIC and the OFR. Effective February 28, 2014, the Consent Order was amended (collectively, the “Consent Order”).
   
  The Consent Order represents an agreement among the Bank, the FDIC and the OFR as to areas of the Bank’s operations that warrant improvement and presents a plan for making those improvements.

(9) Junior Subordinated Debenture.

 

  On September 30, 2004, the Company issued a $5,155,000 junior subordinated debenture to an unconsolidated subsidiary. The debenture has a term of thirty years. The interest rate was fixed at 6.4% for the first five years, and thereafter, the coupon rate floats quarterly at the three-month LIBOR rate plus 2.45% (2.78% at September 30, 2015). The junior subordinated debenture, due in 2034, is redeemable in certain circumstances after October 2009. The terms of the debenture agreement allow the Company to defer payments of interest on the debenture by extending the interest payment period at any time during the term of the debenture for up to twenty consecutive quarterly periods. The Company exercised its right to defer payment of interest on the debenture. Interest payments deferred as of September 30, 2015 totaled $913,000. The Company has deferred interest payments with respect to its junior subordinated debenture for the maximum allowable twenty consecutive quarterly payments. As discussed in note 8 the Company is not able to make these interest payments without the prior approval of the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta. Regulatory approval to pay said accrued and unpaid interest has been denied. The holder of the Junior Subordinated Debenture can accelerate the $5,155,000 principal balance due at September 30, 2015 as a result of this technical default. A Director of the Company had agreed to purchase the Debenture and had agreed to provide a forbearance of the payment to the Company upon consummation of the purchase. Although the agreed upon purchase price for the Debenture had been tendered, the Trustee of the Debenture (the “Trustee”) had received conflicting direction and therefore on December 11, 2014, the Trustee commenced an Action for Interpleader in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Debenture Litigation”). On August 31, 2015 the court held that the Trustee could not sell the Debenture to the Director because certain conditions and requirements set forth in the indenture for the Trust had not been fulfilled. The Director intends to continue his efforts to acquire the Debenture. Based upon the underlying Debenture documents, Management does not believe the Trustee will call a Default at this time. Based on the advice of legal counsel, it is not possible for the Company to determine when or whether the purchase will be consummated. Therefore, the Company is continuing to pursue regulatory approval for the interest payment and other mechanisms for paying the accrued interest. A second purchase offer was made in the third quarter and is awaiting response from the Trustee. No response has been received to date from the Trustee.

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

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the control of the Company, including adverse changes in economic, political and market conditions, losses from the Company’s lending activities and changes in market conditions, the possible loss of key personnel, the impact of increasing competition, the impact of changes in government regulation, the possibility of liabilities arising from violations of federal and state securities laws and the impact of changes in technology in the banking industry. Although the Company believes that its forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions regarding its business and future market conditions, there can be no assurances that the Company’s actual results will not differ materially from any results expressed or implied by the Company’s forward-looking statements. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Readers are cautioned that any forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance.

Liquidity and Sources of Funds

The Bank’s sources of funds include customer deposits, advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (“FHLB”), principal repayments and sales of investment securities, loan repayments, foreclosed real estate sales, the use of Federal Funds markets, net earnings, if any, and loans taken out at the Federal Reserve Bank discount window.

Deposits are the Bank’s primary source of funds. In order to increase its core deposits, the Bank has priced its deposit rates competitively. The Bank will adjust rates on its deposits to attract or retain deposits as needed. Under the Consent Order, the interest rate that the Bank pays on its market area deposits is restricted. It is possible that the Bank could experience a decrease in deposit inflows, or the migration of current deposits to competitor institutions, if other institutions offer higher interest rates than those permitted to be offered by the Bank. Despite these yield limitations, Management believes that it has the ability to adjust rates on the deposits to attract or retain deposits as needed.

In addition to obtaining funds from depositors, the Bank may borrow funds from other financial institutions. At September 30, 2015, the Bank had outstanding borrowings of $16.0 million, against its $31.7 million in established borrowing capacity with the FHLB. The Bank’s borrowing facility is subject to collateral and stock ownership requirements, as well as prior FHLB consent to each advance. In 2010, the Bank obtained an available discount window credit line with the Federal Reserve Bank, currently $0.6 million. The Federal Reserve Bank line is subject to collateral requirements and must be repaid within 90 days; each advance is subject to prior Federal Reserve Bank consent. The Bank also has a $2.5 million line of credit with SunTrust and $0.6 million line of credit with ServisFirst Bank. Each advance is subject to prior consent. Management measures and monitors liquidity daily and believes the Bank’s liquidity sources are adequate to meet its operating needs.

Management conducts a quarterly stress test of the Bank’s liquidity to test various scenarios of potential deposit run-off. The Bank, due to its liquid government guaranteed investment portfolio, has adequate liquidity to meet its needs.

The Company, on an unconsolidated basis, typically relies on dividends from the Bank to fund its operating expenses, primarily expenses of being publicly held, and to make interest payments on its outstanding trust preferred securities. Under the Written Agreement, the Bank is currently unable to pay dividends without prior regulatory approval. Consequently, the Company is relying upon investors to fund its operating expenses. In addition, under the Written Agreement, the Company may not pay interest payments on the trust preferred securities or dividends on common stock, incur any additional indebtedness at the holding company level, or redeem its common stock without the prior regulatory approval of the Federal Reserve Bank. Since January 2010, the Company has deferred interest payments on its trust preferred securities.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments are commitments to extend credit and may involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest-rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The contract amounts of these instruments reflect the extent of the Company’s involvement in these financial instruments.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total committed amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis.

The amount of collateral obtained, if it is deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counter party. As of September 30, 2015, the Company had commitments to extend credit totaling $2.6 million.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, (Continued)

Comparison of the Three-Month Periods Ended September 30, 2015 and 2014

General. Net earnings for the three months ended September 30, 2015, was $46,000 or $0.01 per basic and diluted share compared to a net loss of ($79,000) or $(.01) per basic and diluted share for the period ended September 30, 2014. This increase in net earnings was partially due to a $.3 million resolution of a tax dispute with the IRS in the Company’s favor.

Interest Income. Interest income decreased to $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 from $1.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014 due to interest income recognized with respect to 2 loans which were on nonaccrual and were repaid by the borrowers in 2014.

Interest Expense. Interest expense remained at $0.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.

Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for the three months ended September 30, 2015, was $0 compared to $0 for the same period in 2014. The provision for loan losses is charged to operations as losses are estimated to have occurred in order to bring the total allowance for loan losses to a level deemed appropriate by management to absorb losses inherent in the portfolio at September 30, 2015. Management’s periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is based upon historical experience, the volume and type of lending conducted by the Company, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, estimated value of the underlying collateral, loans identified as impaired, general economic conditions, particularly as they relate to the Company’s market areas, and other factors related to the estimated collectability of the loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses totaled $2.0 million or 2.5% of gross loans outstanding at September 30, 2015, compared to $2.2 million, or 2.9% of gross loans outstanding at December 31, 2014. Management believes the balance in the allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2015 is adequate.

Noninterest Income. Total noninterest income increased to $172,000 from $20,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2015, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2014 primarily as a result of loan extension fees in 2015.

Noninterest Expenses. Total noninterest expenses increased to $1.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014, primarily due to foreclosed real estate expenses in 2015.

Income Tax Benefit. The income tax benefit resulted from the favorable settlement of a dispute with the IRS related to certain of the Company’s Federal income tax returns.

Comparison of the Nine-Month Periods Ended September 30, 2015 and 2014

General. Net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, was $0.1 million or $(.01) loss per basic and diluted share compared to net earnings of $1.6 million or $.19 earnings per basic and diluted share for the period ended September 30, 2014. This decrease in net earnings was due to a $.9 million decrease in net interest income and a $1.3 million increase in noninterest expenses. The decrease in net interest income related to two loans that were on nonaccrual and were repaid by the borrowers during the 2014 period. The increase in noninterest expenses resulted from one-time events related to recovery of loan costs during the 2014 period.

Interest Income. Interest income decreased to $3.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 from $4.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, primarily due to interest income recognized with respect to     loans which were on nonaccrual and were repaid by the borrowers in 2014.

Interest Expense. Interest expense on deposits and borrowings remained consistent at $0.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.

Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, was $0 compared to $0 for the same period in 2014. The provision for loan losses is charged to operations as losses are estimated to have occurred in order to bring the total allowance for loan losses to a level deemed appropriate by management to absorb losses inherent in the portfolio at September 30, 2014. Management’s periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is based upon historical experience, the volume and type of lending conducted by the Company, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, estimated value of the underlying collateral, loans identified as impaired, general economic conditions, particularly as they relate to the Company’s market areas, and other factors related to the estimated collectability of the loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses totaled $2.0 million or 2.5% of gross loans outstanding at September 30, 2015, compared to $2.2 million, or 2.9% of gross loans outstanding at December 31, 2014. Management believes the balance in the allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2015 is adequate.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, (Continued)

Noninterest Income. Total noninterest income increased to $372,000 from $214,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2014 primarily as a result of loan extension fees and securities gains in 2015.

Noninterest Expenses. Total noninterest expenses increased to $3.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $2.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, primarily due to a normalization of the non-interest expense compared to a decrease caused by a onetime event related to expense in foreclosed real estate in 2014.

Income Tax Benefit. The income tax benefit resulted from the favorable settlement of a dispute with the IRS related to certain of the Company’s Federal income tax returns.  

Results of Operations

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, information regarding (i) the total dollar amount of interest and dividend income of the Company from interest-earning assets and the resultant average yields; (ii) the total dollar amount of interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities and the resultant average cost; (iii) net interest income; (iv) interest-rate spread; (v) net interest margin; and (vi) ratio of average interest-earning assets to average interest-bearing liabilities.

Regulatory Enforcement Actions

Bank Consent Order. Effective April 16, 2010, the Bank consented to the issuance of a Consent Order by the FDIC and the OFR. Effective February 28, 2014, the Consent Order was amended (collectively, the “Consent Order”). The Consent Order covers areas of the Bank’s operations that warrant improvement and imposes various requirements and restrictions designed to address these areas, including the requirement to maintain certain minimum capital ratios. A detailed discussion of the Consent Order is contained in Footnote 8 to the condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this report. Management believes that the Bank is currently in substantial compliance with all the requirements of the Consent Order except for the following requirement:

 

Capital ratio requirements of 12% of total risk-based capital and 8% Tier I leverage capital ratio.

 

The Bank is in the process of implementing comprehensive policies and plans to address all of the requirements of the Consent Order and has incorporated recommendations from the FDIC and OFR into these policies and plans. The Board intends to seek capital through investors. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Company will raise sufficient capital for the Bank to achieve and maintain material compliance with these ratios.

Company Written Agreement with Reserve Bank. On June 22, 2010, the Company and the Reserve Bank entered into a Written Agreement with respect to certain aspects of the operation and management of the Company, including, without the prior approval of the Reserve Bank, paying or declaring dividends, taking dividends or payments from the Bank, making any interest, principal or other distributions on trust preferred securities, incurring, increasing or guaranteeing any debt, purchasing or redeeming any shares of stock, or appointing any new director or senior executive officer. Management believes that the Company is currently in substantial compliance with the requirements of the Written Agreement. A detailed discussion of the Written Agreement is contained in Footnote 9 to the condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this report. 

BSA Memorandum of Understanding. As part of a routine examination by the FDIC and Florida Office of Financial Regulation, material weaknesses in the Bank’s Bank Secrecy Act (“BSA”)/Anti-Money Laundering Program were noted. Accordingly, on July 27, 2015, the Bank entered into a BSA Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) with the regulators regarding corrective measures. No fine was imposed in connection with the MOU.

Capital Levels

Quantitative measures established by regulation and by the Consent Order to ensure capital adequacy require us to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the following table) of Total and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets and Tier 1 capital to average assets. As of September 30, 2015, the Bank did not meet the minimum applicable capital adequacy requirements. See “Supervision and Regulation – Bank Regulation – Capital Adequacy Requirements” with respect to the required Tier 1 capital to total assets ratios of 8%.
