Annual Report

KENTUCKY FIRST FEDERAL BANCORP

Kentucky First Federal Bancorp (“Kentucky First” or the “Company”) was formed under federal law in March 2005 and is the holding company for First Federal Savings and Loan Association of Hazard, Hazard, Kentucky (“First Federal of Hazard”) and First Federal Savings Bank of Kentucky, Frankfort, Kentucky (“First Federal of Kentucky”) (collectively, the “Banks”). Kentucky First’s operations consist primarily of operating the Banks as two independent, community-oriented savings institutions.

First Federal of Hazard is a federally chartered savings and loan association offering traditional financial services to consumers in Perry and surrounding counties in eastern Kentucky. First Federal of Hazard engages primarily in the business of attracting deposits from the general public and using such funds to originate, when available, loans secured by first mortgages on owner-occupied, residential real estate and, occasionally, other loans secured by real estate. To the extent there is insufficient loan demand in its market area, and where appropriate under its investment policies, First Federal of Hazard has historically invested in mortgage-backed and other securities, although since formation of the Company in 2005, First Federal of Hazard has been purchasing whole loans and participations in loans originated at First Federal of Kentucky.

First Federal of Kentucky is a federally chartered savings bank which is primarily engaged in the business of attracting deposits from the general public and the origination primarily of adjustable-rate loans secured by first mortgages on owner-occupied and non-owner-occupied one-to four-family residences in Franklin, Boyle, Garrard and surrounding counties in Kentucky. First Federal of Kentucky also originates, to a lesser extent, home equity loans, loans secured by churches, multi-family properties, professional office buildings and other types of property, as well as consumer loans and commercial and industrial loans.

Dear Shareholder:

We are pleased to present the 2018 Annual Report for Kentucky First Federal Bancorp. We encourage you to read both the Annual Report and Proxy Statement. We encourage you to vote and, if possible, to attend our annual meeting on November 15, 2018, at the Challenger Center on the campus of the Hazard Community and Technical College.

The enclosed report details both some of the challenges we, and all community banks, have been facing for several years as well as some reasons for optimism. The biggest challenge continues to be declining earnings, primarily resulting from a shrinking margin and higher operating costs. We continued building on the success we achieved in fiscal 2017, in which we grew our portfolio by nearly $20 million, by growing our loan portfolio by $12.1 million in fiscal 2018. As with most employers who offer a defined benefit (“DB”) plan to its employees, costs continue to increase at a rapid pace. Three factors attribute to higher costs for the Company’s DB plan: lower earnings on long-term pension assets, higher administrative costs and higher Pension Benefit Guarantee Corporation premiums.

As shareholders, we appreciate the members of First Federal Savings and Loan for their continued support of the dividend waiver. For the seventh year in a row, they have voted overwhelmingly to allow us to waive the dividend which allows Kentucky First to pay a competitive dividend.

We are honored to have devoted, long-term employees. We want to wish the best to the following retirees:

Phyllis Bowman, Loan Processor	First Federal of Kentucky	18 years
Lou Ella Farler, President/CEO	First Federal of Hazard	43 years

We mourn the loss of two directors of First Federal of Kentucky. Danny Garland was the retired president of William Johnson, who passed away in February of this year. Will was a long-time director of First Federal of Frankfort and was legal counsel for the institution for many years.

Please keep First Federal in mind for your banking needs. We have been offering some very competitive CD rates in the past several months. As a shareholder, when you bank with us, you help yourself (and we think enjoy excellent products and services). Please let us know if there’s anything we can do for you.

Sincerely,

Don Jennings

General

The Company was incorporated as a mid-tier holding company under the laws of the United States on March 2, 2005 upon the completion of the reorganization of First Federal of Hazard into a federal mutual holding company form of organization (the “Reorganization”). On that date, Kentucky First also completed its minority stock offering and its concurrent acquisition of Frankfort First Bancorp, Inc. (“Frankfort First Bancorp”) and its wholly owned subsidiary, First Federal of Kentucky, Frankfort Kentucky (“First Federal of Kentucky”) (the “Merger”). Following the Reorganization and Merger, the Company has operated First Federal of Hazard and First Federal of Kentucky (collectively, the “Banks”) as two independent, community-oriented savings institutions.

On December 31, 2012, the Company acquired CKF Bancorp, Inc., a savings and loan holding company which operated three banking locations in Boyle and Garrard Counties in Kentucky. In accounting for the transaction the assets and liabilities of CKF Bancorp were recorded on the books of First Federal of Kentucky in accordance with accounting standard ASC 805, Business Combinations.

Our results of operations are dependent primarily on net interest income, which is the difference between the income earned on our loans and securities and our cost of funds, consisting of the interest paid on deposits and borrowings. Results of operations are also affected by the provision for losses on loans and service charges and fees collected on our deposit accounts. Our general, administrative and other expense primarily consists of employee compensation and benefits expense, occupancy and equipment expense, data processing expense, other operating expenses and state franchise and federal income taxes. Results of operations are also significantly affected by general economic and competitive conditions, particularly changes in interest rates, government policies and actions of regulatory authorities.

Income. We have two primary sources of pre-tax income. The first is net interest income, which is the difference between interest income, the income that we earn on our loans and investments, and interest expense, the interest that we pay on our deposits and borrowings.

To a much lesser extent, we also recognize pre-tax income from fee and service charges, which is the compensation we receive from providing financial products and services.

Expenses. The expenses we incur in operating our business consist of compensation, taxes and benefits, office occupancy, data processing fees, taxes and other expenses.

Compensation, taxes and benefits consist primarily of the salaries and wages paid to our employees and directors, payroll taxes and expenses for retirement and other employee benefits.

Office occupancy expenses, which are the fixed and variable costs of buildings and equipment, consist primarily of taxes, depreciation charges, maintenance and costs of utilities.

Data processing fees primarily include fees paid to our third-party data processing providers.

Taxes consist of the current and deferred portion of federal income taxes as well as franchise taxes paid to the Commonwealth of Kentucky by the subsidiary Banks.

Other expenses include expenses for attorneys, accountants and consultants, advertising, telephone, employee training and education, charitable contributions, insurance, office supplies, postage and other miscellaneous operating activities.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our accounting and reporting policies comply with U.S. GAAP and conform to general practices within the banking industry. We believe that of our significant accounting policies, the following may involve a higher degree of management assumptions and judgments that could result in materially different amounts to be reported if conditions or underlying circumstances were to change.

Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses is the estimated amount considered necessary to cover probable incurred losses in the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. The allowance is established through the provision for losses on loans, which is charged against income.

The management and the Boards of the Company and of First Federal of Hazard and First Federal of Kentucky review the allowance for loan losses on a quarterly basis. Consideration is given to a variety of factors in establishing this estimate including, but not limited to, current economic conditions, delinquency statistics, geographic and industry concentrations, the adequacy of the underlying collateral, the financial strength of the borrower, results of internal loan reviews, volume and mix of the loan portfolio and other relevant factors. This evaluation is inherently subjective, as it requires material estimates that may be susceptible to change. Management considers the economic climate in the Banks’ respective lending areas to be among the factors most likely to have an impact on the level of the required allowance for loan losses.

Management continues to monitor and evaluate factors which could have an impact on the required level of the allowance. Management watches for national issues that may negatively affect a significant percentage of homeowners in the Banks’ lending areas. These may include significant increases in unemployment or significant depreciation in home prices. Management reviews employment statistics periodically when determining the allowance for loan losses and generally finds the unemployment rates in both lending areas to be high in relation to historical trends. Management has no current plans to alter the type of lending or collateral currently offered, but if such plans change or market conditions result in large concentrations of certain types of loans, such as commercial real estate or high loan-to-value ratio residential loans, management would respond with an increase in the overall allowance for loan losses.

The analysis has two components, specific and general allocations. Loans are classified as either homogenous or other. Homogenous loans are analyzed in the aggregate according to various criteria. Non-homogenous loans receive additional scrutiny and are classified as impaired or unimpaired. Specific allocations are made for loans that are determined to be impaired. Impairment is measured by determining the present value of expected future cash flows or, for collateral-dependent loans, the fair value of the collateral adjusted for market conditions and selling expenses. A loan is considered to be collateral-dependent when the circumstances of the borrower indicate that we can no longer rely upon the overall financial strength of that borrower to comply with the terms of the loan and that the loan will likely be repaid in whole or in part by proceeds from the sale of the collateral. Updated independent appraisals are ordered in most situations where management has determined to evaluate a loan for impairment. The general allocation is determined by segregating the remaining loans by type of loan, risk weighting (if applicable) and payment history. We also analyze historical loss experience, delinquency trends, general economic conditions and geographic and industry concentrations. This analysis establishes factors that are applied to the loan groups to determine the amount of the general reserve. Actual loan losses may be significantly more than the allowances we have established and, if so, this could have a material negative effect on our financial results.

Goodwill. We test goodwill for impairment at least annually and more frequently, if circumstances indicate its value may not be recoverable. We test goodwill for impairment by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit to the book value of the reporting unit. If the fair value exceeds book value, then goodwill is not considered to be impaired. Based on the annual goodwill impairment test as of March 31, 2018, and consideration of potential triggering events through year end, management does not believe any of the goodwill is impaired. Different conditions or assumptions, or changes in cash flows or profitability, if significantly negative or unfavorable, could have a material adverse effect on the outcome of the impairment evaluation and financial condition or future results of operations.

Deferred Taxes. We evaluate deferred tax assets and liabilities quarterly. We will realize these assets and liabilities to the extent profitable or carry back tax losses to periods in which we paid income taxes. Our determination of the realization of the deferred tax asset will be based upon management’s judgment of various future events and uncertainties, including the timing and amount of future income we will earn and the implementation of various tax plans to maximize realization of the deferred tax assets. Management believes the Company will generate sufficient operating earnings to realize the deferred tax benefits. Examinations of our income tax returns or changes in tax law may impact the tax liabilities and resulting provisions for income taxes.

Our Operating Strategy

Our mission is to operate and grow profitable, community-oriented financial institutions serving primarily retail customers in our market areas. We plan to pursue a strategy of:

●

operating two community-oriented savings institutions, First Federal of Hazard, which serves customers in Perry and surrounding counties in eastern Kentucky, and First Federal of Kentucky, which serves customers primarily in the central Kentucky counties of Franklin, Boyle and Garrard, as well as their surrounding counties. Each Bank emphasizes traditional thrift activities of accepting deposits and originating primarily residential mortgage loans for portfolio;

●

continuing our historic heavy reliance on our deposit base to fund our lending and investment activities and to supplement deposits with Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati (“FHLB”) advances when advantageous or necessary. We expect our projected deposit mix to generally retain its existing composition of passbook, transaction and certificate of deposit accounts;

●

gradually pursuing opportunities to increase and diversify lending in our market areas;

●

applying conservative underwriting practices to maintain the high quality of our loan portfolios;

●

managing our net interest margin and interest rate risk; and

●

entertaining possibilities of expansion into other markets through branching or acquisition, if such possibilities are beneficial to the Company’s shareholders, provide a good fit within the Company’s mutual holding company framework and can be accomplished without undue encumbrance of the Company’s other operational areas.

Market Risk Analysis

Qualitative Aspects of Market Risk. Our most significant form of market risk is interest rate risk. We manage the interest rate sensitivity of our interest-bearing liabilities and interest-earning assets in an effort to minimize the adverse effects of changes in the interest rate environment. Deposit accounts typically react more quickly to changes in market interest rates than mortgage loans because of the shorter maturities of deposits. As a result, sharp increases in interest rates may adversely affect our earnings while decreases in interest rates may beneficially affect our earnings. To reduce the potential volatility of our earnings, we have sought to improve the match between asset and liability maturities (or rate adjustment periods), while maintaining an acceptable interest rate spread. Still, when market rates increase rapidly, increases in the cost of deposits and borrowings outpace the increases in the return on assets. The Company’s assets are primarily comprised of adjustable rate mortgages (all of which have some contractual limits in their ability to react to market changes) and short-term securities. Those assets will, over time, re-price to counteract the increased costs of deposits and borrowings.

Asset/Liability Management. Management and the boards of the subsidiary Banks are responsible for the asset/liability management issues that affect the individual Banks. Either Bank may work with its sister Bank to mitigate potential asset/liability risks to the Banks and to the Company as a whole. Management utilizes a third-party to perform interest rate risk (“IRR”) calculations for each of the Banks. Management monitors and considers methods of managing the rate sensitivity and repricing characteristics of each of the Bank’s balance sheet components in an effort to maintain acceptable levels of change in the economic value of equity (“EVE”) as well as evaluating the impact on earnings in the event of changes in prevailing market interest rates. Interest rate sensitivity analysis is used to measure our interest rate risk by computing estimated changes in EVE that are a result of changes in the net present value of its cash flows from assets, liabilities, and off-balance sheet items. These changes in cash flow are estimated based on hypothetical instantaneous and permanent increases and decreases in market interest rates.

Since December 2015 the Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) of the Federal Reserve Bank has increased rates seven times at 25 basis points each. Each of the last three quarters of the Company’s fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, included such a rate increase. At June 30, 2018, we believe our risk associated with falling interest rates was minimal. Our IRR model indicated that at June 30, 2018, in the event of a sudden and sustained increase in prevailing market interest rates of 300 basis points, our EVE would be expected to decrease $9.4 million or 12.9% to $63.5 million, at which level our fair value of tangible equity to fair value of tangible assets would be expected to be 17.2% and our fair value of equity to fair value of risk-weighted assets would be expected to be 38.0%. The projected decrease in EVE in the event of a sudden and sustained 300 basis point increase in prevailing interest rates is within the parameters established by each subsidiary Bank’s Board of Directors. Computations or prospective effects of hypothetical interest rate changes are based on numerous assumptions, including relative levels of market interest rates, loan prepayments, and deposit run-offs. These computations should not be relied upon as indicative of actual results. Further, the computations do not contemplate any actions the Banks may undertake in response to changes in interest rates. Certain shortcomings are inherent in this method of computing EVE. For example, although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or periods to repricing, they may react in differing degrees to changes in market interest rates. The interest rates on certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in market interest rates, while interest rates on other types may lag behind changes in market rates.

Statement of Financial Condition

General. At June 30, 2018, total assets were $318.4 million, an increase of $9.9 million, or 3.2%, from the $308.5 million total at June 30, 2017. The increase in total assets was related primarily to an increase in loans, net, which increased $12.1 million or 4.7% to $270.3 million at June 30, 2018. At June 30, 2018, total liabilities were $251.2 million, an increase of $9.9 million, or 4.1%, from total liabilities at June 30, 2017. The increase in total liabilities was related primarily to an increase in deposits.

Loans. Our primary lending activity is the origination of loans for the purchase, refinance or construction of one- to four-family residential real estate located in our market areas. As opportunities arise, we also originate church loans, commercial real estate loans, and multi-family and nonresidential real estate loans. At June 30, 2018, one- to four- family residential real estate loans totaled $207.1 million, or 75.5% of total loans, compared to $197.9 million, or 76.2% of total loans, at June 30, 2017, caused primarily by higher demand for home financing in the Banks’ markets. Construction real estate loans totaled $5.1 million, or 1.8% of total loans, at June 30, 2018, compared to $2.4 million, or 0.9% of total loans at June 30, 2017. At June 30, 2018, multi-family real estate loans totaled $15.1 million, or 5.5% of total loans, compared to $15.7 million or 6.0% of total loans at June 30, 2017. Nonresidential real estate loans totaled $32.4 million, or 11.8% of total loans at June 30, 2018, compared to $29.2 million, or 11.2% of total loans, at June 30, 2017. Commercial and industrial loans totaled $1.9 million or 0.7% of total loans at June 30, 2018, compared to $2.5 million or 1.0% of total loans at June 30, 2017. Farm loans totaled $2.3 million or 0.9% of total loans at June 30, 2018, compared to $2.1 million or 0.8% of total loans at June 30, 2017. Consumer loans (including automobile and unsecured loans) totaled $9.6 million and $8.9 million at June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. At June 30, 2018, consumer loans were comprised of loans secured by deposits of $1.5 million or 0.5% of total loans and other consumer loans of $8.2 million or 3.0% of total loans. Please refer to Note C-Loans of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a further breakdown of consumer and other loans.

Allowance for Loan Losses and Asset Quality. The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for the probable incurred losses in the loan portfolio. We evaluate the allowance for loan losses no less than quarterly. When additional allowances are needed a provision for losses on loans is charged against earnings. The recommendations for increases or decreases to the allowance are presented by management to the Banks’ boards of directors. The Company’s board of directors oversees the overall allowance level for the Company and may propose increases or decreases for allowance levels at the banks.

The allowance for loan losses is established to recognize the probable incurred losses associated with lending activities. Loss and risk factors are based on our historical loss experience and industry averages and are adjusted for significant factors that in management’s judgment affect the collectibility of the portfolio as of the evaluation date. These significant factors may include changes in lending policies and procedures, changes in existing general economic and business conditions affecting our primary lending area, credit quality trends, collateral value, loan volumes and concentrations, seasoning of the loan portfolio, recent loss experience, duration of the current business cycle and bank regulatory examination results.

The allowance for loan losses totaled $1.6 million and $1.5 million at June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, which represented 0.58% and 0.59% of total loans, respectively. The allowance is based on a number of factors including loan loss experience, which has a significant impact. The allowance included no specific reserves at June 30, 2018 or 2017. Such reserves are calculated when a non-homogenous loan is considered impaired. An impaired loan is one in which it is likely that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Most of the Company’s loans are collateral-based and, in case of impairment, the loans are carried at the lower of cost or fair value less disposal costs.

Nonperforming loans, which consist of all loans 90 days or more past due and nonaccrual loans, totaled $7.7 million at June 30, 2018 and $6.8 million at June 30, 2017, an increase of $855,000 or 12.6%. The allowance for loan losses totaled 20.6% and 22.5% of nonperforming loans at June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. In determining the allowance for loan losses at any point in time, management and the boards of directors of the subsidiary Banks apply a systematic process focusing on the risk of loss in the portfolio. First, the loan portfolio is segregated by loan types to be evaluated collectively and loan types to be evaluated individually. Delinquent multi-family and nonresidential loans are evaluated individually for potential impairment. Second, the allowance for loan losses is evaluated using historic loss experience adjusted for significant factors by applying these loss percentages to the loan types to be evaluated collectively in the portfolio. It is difficult to derive direct correlation between the level of troubled loans, whether measured by impairment, non-performance, classification, or delinquency, because approximately 20% of total loans and 46% of classified loans were acquired in the merger with Central Kentucky Federal. The acquired loans are not covered by the allowance for loan losses in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. To the best of management’s knowledge, all known and probable incurred losses that can be reasonably estimated have been recorded at June 30, 2018. Although management believes that its allowance for loan losses conforms with generally accepted accounting principles based upon the available facts and circumstances, there can be no assurance that additions to the allowance will not be necessary in future periods, which would adversely affect our results of operations.

Our banking regulators, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review our allowance for loan losses. The examinations may require us to make additional provisions for loan losses based on judgments different from ours. In addition, because further events affecting borrowers and collateral cannot be predicted with certainty, there can be no assurance that the existing allowance for loan losses is adequate or that increases will not be necessary should the quality of any loans deteriorate as a result of the factors discussed above. Any material increase in the allowance for loan losses may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Summary of Loan Loss Experience. The following table sets forth an analysis of the allowance for loan losses for the periods indicated. Where specific loan loss allowances have been established, any difference between the loss allowance and the amount of loss realized has been charged or credited to the allowance.

Nonperforming and Classified Assets. When a loan becomes 90 days delinquent, the loan may be placed on nonaccrual status at which time the accrual of interest ceases, the interest previously accrued to income is reversed and interest income is thereafter recognized on a cash basis. Payments on a nonaccrual loan are applied to the outstanding principal and interest as determined at the time of collection of the loan or applied entirely to principal, depending on management’s assessment of ultimate collectibility. In situations where management believes collection of interest due is likely even if the loan is more than 90 days delinquent, then management may decide not to place the loan on non-accrual status.

We consider repossessed assets and loans that are 90 days or more past due to be nonperforming assets. Real estate that we acquire as a result of foreclosure or by deed-in-lieu of foreclosure is classified as real estate owned until it is sold. When property is acquired it is recorded at the lower of carrying value of the investment or fair value less estimated selling costs at the date of foreclosure. Holding costs and declines in fair value after acquisition of the property are charged against income.

Under current accounting guidelines, a loan is defined as impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the creditor will be unable to collect all amounts due under the contractual terms of the loan agreement. We consider one- to four-family mortgage loans and deposit loans to be homogeneous and collectively evaluate them for impairment. Other loans are evaluated for impairment on an individual basis. At June 30, 2018, there were no loans individually considered impaired with valuation adjustments.

The following table provides information with respect to our nonperforming assets at the dates indicated.

Interest income that would have been recorded for the years ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, had nonaccrual loans been current according to their original terms amounted to $112,000, and $109,000, respectively. Income related to nonaccrual loans included in interest income for the years ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 amounted to $62,000, and $71,000, respectively.

Federal regulations require us to regularly review and classify our assets. In addition, our regulators have the authority to identify problem assets and, if appropriate, require them to be classified. There are three classifications for problem assets: substandard, doubtful and loss. “Substandard assets” must have one or more defined weaknesses and are characterized by the distinct possibility that we will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. “Doubtful assets” have the weaknesses of substandard assets with the additional 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 “loss” is considered uncollectible and of such little value that continuance as an asset of the institution is not warranted. The regulations also provide for a “special mention” category, described as assets which do not currently expose us to a sufficient degree of risk to warrant classification but do possess credit deficiencies or potential weaknesses deserving our close attention. Special mention assets totaled $1.1 million and $6.2 million at June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

The following table shows the aggregate amounts of our assets classified for regulatory purposes at the dates indicated.

Substandard assets at June 30, 2018, consisted of 171 loans totaling $11.9 million and 8 parcels of real estate owned with an aggregate carrying value of $710,000, compared to substandard assets at June 30, 2017 which consisted of 170 loans totaling $12.1 million and 8 parcels of real estate owned with an aggregate carrying value of $358,000. At June 30, 2018, 5.6% of the Company’s substandard assets were represented by real estate acquired through foreclosure compared to 2.9% at June 30, 2017. During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company made loans to facilitate the purchase of its other real estate owned by qualified borrowers. The Company sold property with carrying values of $133,000 and $200,000 for $144,000 and $264,000 during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Such loans are considered loans to facilitate an exchange and, as such, the Company defers recognition of the gain until the proper time in the future. Loans to facilitate the sale of other real estate owned and which were included in substandard loans, totaled $241,000 and $346,000 at June 30, 2018, and 2017, respectively.

Capital. Total shareholders’ equity totaled $67.2 million at June 30, 2018, a $57,000 or 0.15%, increase compared to June 30, 2017. The increase resulted primarily from earnings reduced by dividends declared during the year.

Effective January 1, 2015, the Company and the Banks became subject to the capital regulations in accordance with Basel III. These regulations established higher minimum risk-based capital ratio requirements, a new common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio and a new capital conservation buffer (“CCB”). The regulations also included a revised definition of capital and changed the risk-weighting of certain assets. For purposes of prompt corrective action, the new regulations establish definitions of “well capitalized” as follows:

	Minimum for banks to be well- capitalized under regulatory requirements
Tier 1 Capital to Total Average Assets		5.0	%
Common Equity Tier 1 Capital		6.5	%
Tier 1 Capital to Risk-Weighted Assets		8.0	%
Total Capital to Risk-Weighted Assets		10.0	%

Additionally, the CCB of Common Equity Tier 1 Risk-Based capital above the minimum risk-based capital requirements was introduced. The CCB will eventually be 2.5% and is being phased in over a three year period. The CCB was equal to 1.25% effective January 1, 2017 and increases 0.625% annually through 2019 to 2.5%. The Company and the Banks, in order to avoid limitations on capital distributions, including dividend payments, engaging in share repurchases and certain discretionary bonus payments to executive officers, must maintain the CCB at the appropriate level.

At June 30, 2018, both First Federal of Hazard’s and First Federal of Kentucky’s regulatory capital substantially exceeded all minimum regulatory capital requirements. Management is not aware of any recent event that would cause this classification to change. See Note J-Stockholders’ Equity and Regulatory Capital in the Notes to Financial Statements.

Results of Operations for the Years Ended June 30, 2018 and 2017

General. Net earnings totaled $1.3 million or $0.16 diluted earnings per share for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, which represents a $388,000, or 41.5%, increase from net earnings recorded for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017. The increase in earnings year over year was due to reduced federal income taxes and increased non-interest income. The Company reported a federal income tax benefit of $37,000 for the fiscal year just ended compared to a federal income tax expense of $513,000 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017, a decrease of $550,000 or 107.2%. The decrease in income tax expense was primarily related to a change in income tax law, which reduced the top income tax rate for corporations beginning January 1, 2018. Under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles the effect of changes in tax laws or rates is recognized in income tax expense in the period in which the legislation is enacted. The Company recognized an income tax benefit of approximately $268,000 related to lower tax rates expected to be applied to its net deferred tax liabilities in the future. Non-interest income increased $329,000 or 90.9% to $691,000 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 primarily because of an increase in earnings on bank-owned life insurance (“BOLI.”) During the fiscal year the Company received BOLI insurance proceeds on policies maintained under its long-standing overall employee benefits program pursuant to the passing of a covered individual.

Interest Income. Total interest income for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 was $11.9 million, an increase of $570,000, or 5.0%, compared to the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017. The increase in interest income was due primarily to an increase in the average balance of loans in the portfolio during the fiscal year. The average balance of interest-earning assets increased $13.7 million or 5.1% to $285.4 million for the twelve months recently ended.

Interest income from loans increased $417,000 or 3.8% to $11.3 million for the year ended June 30, 2018 primarily due to an increase in the average balance of the portfolio, which increased $14.7 million or 5.9% to $263.3 million for the year just ended. The average rate earned on the loan portfolio decreased 9 basis points to 4.30% for the year just ended. The decrease in the average rate earned on loans for fiscal 2018 occurred as a result of new loan originations at lower prevailing interest rates. Interest income from mortgage-backed securities and other securities decreased $16,000 and $7,000, or 28.1% and 100.0%, to $41,000 and zero, respectively for the recently ended fiscal year primarily due to a decrease in the volume of assets in these classes. Income from other interest-earning assets increased $176,000 or 49.3% year over year and totaled $533,000 for the recently ended fiscal year as short-term interest rates increased during the period.

Interest Expense. Interest expense totaled $2.2 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, an increase of $704,000, or 48.3%, from fiscal 2017. The increase in interest expense resulted from higher costs of deposits and advances. Interest expense on deposits increased $384,000 or 37.7% to $1.4 million for the 2018 fiscal year primarily due to an increase in the average rate paid on those deposits, which increased 19 basis points to 0.75% for the recently-ended fiscal year. The average balance of deposits increased $6.1 million or 3.4% to $187.1 million for the year just ended. Interest expense on certificates of deposits was primarily responsible for the increase in interest expense on deposits for the year. The increase in interest expense on certificates of deposits was due principally to an increase in the rate paid on those deposits as short-term interest rates increased during the period and competition for deposits made it necessary to increase rates offered. The average balance of certificates of deposit increased $11.1 million or 10.8% to $114.3 million for the recently-ended year, while the average rate paid on certificates of deposit increased 28 basis points to 1.01% for the year. The average balance of savings and interest-bearing demand deposits decreased $4.6 million or 7.4% and $432,000 or 2.8%, respectively, totaling $57.5 million and $15.3 million for the 2018 fiscal year, respectively. Interest expense on borrowings increased $320,000 or 72.9% to $759,000 for the twelve months ended June 30, 2018, primarily due to an increase in the average rate paid on FHLB advances outstanding as short-term interest rates increased during the period. The average rate paid on those borrowings increased 58 basis points year over year to 1.6% for the recently-ended period. The average balance of borrowings increased $4.0 million or8.9% to $48.8 million for the year just ended.

Net Interest Income. As a result of the aforementioned changes in interest income and interest expense, net interest income before provision for loan losses decreased $134,000 or 1.4% to $9.7 million for the 2018 year. As indicated on the following table, our net interest margin decreased from 3.63% for the 2017 fiscal year to 3.43% for the year just ended, primarily as a result of interest-bearing assets repricing to lower interest rates and our interest-earning liabilities repriced to higher interest rates. Management expects the banks’ net interest margins will continue to tighten for two primary reasons. Mortgage loan competition has intensified in our central Kentucky market area, which makes loan growth contingent upon accepting lower interest rates in general. In addition, funding sources, including local depositors, the FHLB and some other wholesale sources, are seeking higher interest rates in light of the continued raising in interest rates by the Federal Open Market Committee over the last two fiscal years. As such, we expect our cost of funds to continue to rise after several years of record low levels.

Average Balances and Yields. The following table presents information regarding average balances of assets and liabilities, the total dollar amounts of interest income and dividends, the total dollar amount of interest expense and the resulting average yields and costs. The yields and costs for the periods indicated are derived by dividing income or expense by the average balances of assets or liabilities, respectively, for the periods presented. For purposes of this table, average balances have been calculated using the average of daily balances and nonaccrual loans are included in average balances only. We did not hold any non-taxable securities during any of the periods presented in the table.

Rate/Volume Analysis. The following table sets forth the effects of changing rates and volumes on our net interest income. The rate column shows the effects attributable to changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior year volume). The volume column shows the effects attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior year rate). For purposes of this table, changes attributable to changes in both rate and volume that cannot be segregated have been allocated proportionately based on the changes due to rate and the changes due to volume. The total column represents the sum of the prior columns.

Provision for Losses on Loans. A provision for losses on loans is charged to earnings to maintain the total allowance for loan losses at a level calculated by management based on historical experience, the volume and type of lending conducted by the Banks, the status of past due principal and interest payments and other factors related to the collectability of the loan portfolio. Based upon an analysis of these factors, management recorded a provision of $185,000 for losses on loans for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, a decrease of $57,000 or 23.6%, compared to a provision of $242,000 for fiscal 2017. Management believes all nonperforming loans are adequately collateralized or have been written down to their realizable value; however, there can be no assurance that the loan loss allowance will be adequate to absorb losses on known nonperforming assets or that the allowance will be adequate to cover losses on nonperforming assets in the future. See discussion about Allowance Loan Losses and Asset Quality.

Non-interest Income. Other non-interest income increased $329,000 or 90.9% to $691,000 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, due primarily because of an increase in earnings on bank-owned life insurance (“BOLI.”) During the fiscal year the Company received BOLI insurance proceeds on policies maintained under its long-standing overall employee benefits program pursuant to the passing of a covered individual. Impairment charges for REO decreased $134,000 or 78.4% to $37,000 for the year just ended, while net gain on sales of real estate totaled $52,000 for fiscal 2018 compared to $67,000 for fiscal 2017, a decrease of $15,000 or 22.4%. The Company recognized a $64,000 net gain on sale of investments in fiscal 2017, but sold no investments in fiscal 2018. Accordingly, net gain on sale of investments decreased $64,000 or 100.0% to zero for the year just ended.

Non-interest Expense. Non-interest expense increased $414,000 or 4.9% to $8.9 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 compared to fiscal 2017 primarily due to higher employee compensation and benefits expense, which increased $351,000 or 6.6% to $5.7 million for the twelve months ended June 30, 2018, primarily due to higher costs associated with the Company’s DB plan. The Company is required to maintain minimum funding levels for the DB plan or be subject to various limitations. Contributions to the Company’s defined benefit pension plan totaled $957,000 for the twelve-month period just ended, an increase of $263,000 or 37.8%, compared to the prior year period. See NOTE A-Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Item 11. Retirement and Employee Benefit Plans. Various factors contributed to increased costs of the DB plan including a long period of low interest rates, higher administrative fees and higher Pension Benefit Guarantee Corporation premiums.

Somewhat offsetting the increased expenses associated with employee compensation and benefits expense and other non-interest expenses were decreased costs associated with auditing and accounting and occupancy and equipment.

Auditing and accounting expense decreased $32,000 or 10.5% to $273,000 for the year just ended primarily resulting from lower costs associated with internal and external auditing. Occupancy and equipment expense decreased $19,000 or 2.8% to $666,000 for the recently-ended fiscal year due primarily to lower equipment costs including depreciation.

Federal Income Taxes. As noted herein, the Company reported a federal income tax benefit of $37,000 for the fiscal year just ended compared to a federal income tax expense of $513,000 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017, a decrease of $550,000 or 107.2%. The decrease in income tax expense was primarily related to a change in income tax law, which reduced the top income tax rate for corporations beginning January 1, 2018. The effective income tax rate for the years ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, was -2.9% and 35.4%, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is the ability to meet current and future short-term financial obligations. Our primary sources of funds consist of cash and deposits at other banks, deposit inflows, loan repayments and maturities, calls and sales of investment and mortgage-backed securities and advances from the FHLB. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and securities are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition.

We periodically assess our available liquidity and projected upcoming liquidity demands. We regularly adjust our investments in liquid assets based upon our assessment of (1) expected loan demand, (2) expected deposit flows, (3) yields available on interest-earning deposits and securities, and (4) the objectives of our asset/liability management program. Excess liquid assets are invested generally in interest-earning deposits, federal funds and short- and intermediate-term U.S. Government agency obligations.

Our most liquid assets are cash, federal funds sold and interest-bearing deposits. The levels of these assets depend on our operating, financing, lending and investing activities during any given period. At June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017, cash and cash equivalents totaled $9.3 million and $12.8 million, respectively. Securities classified as available-for-sale, which provide additional sources of liquidity, totaled $48,000 and $71,000 at June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

We are not aware of any trends and/or demands, commitments, events or uncertainties that could result in a material protracted decrease in liquidity. We expect that all of our liquidity needs, including the contractual commitments set forth in the table below can be met by our currently available liquid assets and cash flows. In the event any unforeseen demand or commitments were to occur, we would access our borrowing capacity with the FHLB. We expect that our currently available liquid assets and our ability to borrow from the FHLB would be sufficient to satisfy our liquidity needs without any material adverse effect on our liquidity.

Our primary investing activities are the origination of loans and the purchase of investment securities. In fiscal 2018 and 2017, we originated $58.9 million and $57.3 million of loans, respectively. During fiscal 2018, these activities were funded primarily by proceeds from principal repayments on loans of $46.1 million. During fiscal 2017, these activities were funded primarily by proceeds from the principal repayments on loans of $36.7 million.

Financing activities consist primarily of activity in deposit accounts and in FHLB advances. Total deposits increased $12.2 million (net of amortization of purchased premium) for the year ended June 30, 2018, compared to a net decrease of $5.7 million for the year ended June 30, 2017. FHLB advances decreased $2.7 million from June 30, 2017 to June 30, 2018. Deposit flows are affected by the overall level of interest rates, the products and corresponding interest rates offered by us and our local competitors and other factors. We generally manage the pricing of our deposits to be competitive and to increase core deposit relationships.

Commitments and Contractual Obligations

At June 30, 2018, we had $3.4 million in mortgage commitments. Certificates of deposit due within one year of June 30, 2018 totaled $71.4 million, or 36.6% of total deposits. If these deposits do not remain with us, we might be required to seek other sources of funds, including FHLB advances or other certificates of deposit. Depending on market conditions, we may be required to pay higher rates on such deposits or other borrowings than we currently pay on the certificates of deposit due on or before June 30, 2019. We believe, however, based on past experience, that a significant portion of our certificates of deposit will remain with us. We have the ability to attract and retain deposits by adjusting the interest rates offered.

Off-balance Sheet Arrangements

For the year ended June 30, 2018, other than loan commitments, we engaged in no off-balance-sheet transactions reasonably likely to have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Dividend Policy

In fiscal 2018, the Company’s aggregate dividend of $1.5 million exceeded its net income by $130,000. In fiscal 2017, the Company’s net income exceeded its aggregate dividend of $1.5 million by $552,000. Approximately 56.0% of the shares of Kentucky First Federal are held by First Federal MHC, a mutual holding company created in 2005. Under regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System mutual holding companies, who have waived their dividends prior to December 1, 2009, may continue to waive these dividends provided there is no objection by the Federal Reserve. This waiver action is conditioned on providing appropriate notice and absent the Federal Reserve’s determination that the waiver would be detrimental to the safe and sound operations of the banks. First Federal MHC put the issue to a vote of the members August 2012 and each of the succeeding six years. Members of First Federal MHC voted in favor of the dividend waiver on all occasions and the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland subsequently approved the waiver of dividends. As a result, First Federal MHC will be permitted to waive the receipt of dividends for quarterly dividends up to $0.10 per common share through the third quarter of 2019. Management believes that the Company has sufficient capital to continue the current dividend policy without affecting the well-capitalized status of either subsidiary bank. Indeed, the Banks still far exceed all regulatory required capital levels. Therefore, we expect to continue to seek approval from the Federal Reserve to allow First Federal MHC to waive its right to dividends. If management should anticipate a long-term trend in which dividends consistently exceed net income (either due to regulatory mandate or a drop in income levels), the dividend policy would be reconsidered. Management cautions that comparison between the Company’s published earnings per share and the Company’s published dividends per share does not lead to an accurate portrayal of the relationship between net income and dividends paid, because the published dividend per share is calculated with the inclusion of the shares owned by First Federal MHC.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices

Our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without considering the change in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The primary impact of inflation on our operations is reflected in increased operating costs. Unlike most industrial companies, virtually all of our assets and liabilities are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates generally have a more significant impact on our performance than do general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the prices of goods and services.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Kentucky First Federal Bancorp (Company) as of June 30, 2018, the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the year ended June 30, 2018, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended June 30, 2018, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits.

We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Kentucky First Federal Bancorp as of June 30, 2017, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.

KENTUCKY FIRST FEDERAL BANCORP

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2018 and 2017

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Kentucky First Federal Bancorp (the “Company”) is a savings and loan holding company whose activities are primarily limited to holding the stock and managing the operations of First Federal Savings and Loan Association of Hazard, Kentucky (“First Federal of Hazard”) and Frankfort First Bancorp, Inc., (“Frankfort First”) the holding company for First Federal Savings Bank of Kentucky (“First Federal of Kentucky”). First Federal of Hazard and First Federal of Kentucky are collectively referred to herein as “the Banks.” First Federal of Hazard is a community-oriented savings and loan association dedicated to serving consumers in Perry and surrounding counties in eastern Kentucky, while First Federal of Kentucky operates through six banking offices located in Frankfort, Danville and Lancaster, Kentucky. Both institutions engage primarily in the business of attracting deposits from the general public and applying those funds to the origination of loans for residential and consumer purposes. First Federal of Kentucky also originates, to a lesser extent, church loans, home equity and other loans. Other than a predominance of one- to four-family residential property, which is common in most thrifts, there are no significant concentrations of loans to any one industry or customer. However, the customers’ ability to repay their loans is dependent on the real estate and general economic conditions in the Banks’ specific operating areas. The Banks’ profitability is significantly dependent on net interest income, which is the difference between interest income generated from interest-earning assets (i.e. loans and investments) and the interest expense paid on interest-bearing liabilities (i.e. customer deposits and borrowed funds). Net interest income is affected by the relative amount of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the interest received or paid on these balances. The level of interest rates paid or received by the Banks can be significantly influenced by a number of environmental factors, such as governmental monetary policy, that are outside of management’s control.

The following is a summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies which have been consistently applied in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

1. Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, First Federal of Hazard, Frankfort First and First Federal of Kentucky. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

2. Use of Estimates: The consolidated financial information presented herein has been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP.”) To prepare financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management makes estimates and assumptions based on available information. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the disclosures provided, and actual results could differ. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, the allowance for loan losses, goodwill and deferred taxes.

3. Securities: Debt securities are classified as held to maturity or available for sale. Securities classified as held to maturity are to be carried at cost only if the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold these securities to maturity. Securities designated as available for sale are carried at fair value with resulting unrealized gains or losses recorded to shareholders’ equity, net of tax.

KENTUCKY FIRST FEDERAL BANCORP

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

June 30, 2018 and 2017

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

3. Securities: (continued)

Interest income includes amortization of purchase premium or discount. Premiums and discounts on securities are amortized on the level-yield method without anticipating prepayments, except for mortgage backed securities where prepayments are anticipated. Gains and losses on sales are recorded on the trade date and determined using the specific identification method.

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such an evaluation. For securities in an unrealized loss position, management considers the extent and duration of the unrealized loss, and the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer. Management also 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 the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met, the entire difference between amortized cost and fair value is recognized as impairment through earnings. For debt securities that do not meet the aforementioned criteria, the amount of impairment is split into two components as follows: 1) OTTI related to credit loss, which must be recognized in the income statement and 2) OTTI related to other factors, which is recognized in other comprehensive income. The credit loss is defined as the difference between the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected and the amortized cost basis.

4. Loans: Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are reported at the principal amount outstanding, adjusted for deferred loan origination costs, net, discounts on purchased loans, and the allowance for loan losses. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance unless the collectability of the loan is in doubt. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized in interest income using the level-yield method without anticipating prepayments. Interest income on one- to four-family residential loans is generally discontinued at the time a loan is 180 days delinquent and on other loans at the time a loan is 90 days delinquent. All other loans are moved to non-accrual status in accordance with the Company’s policy, typically 90 days after the loan becomes delinquent. Past due status is based on the contractual terms of the loan. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual or charged-off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful. Nonaccrual loans and loans past due 90 days still on accrual include both smaller balance homogeneous loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment and individually classified impaired loans.

All interest accrued but not received for loans placed on nonaccrual is reversed against interest income. Interest received on such loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

5. Loans held for sale and Mortgage Servicing Rights: Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost (less principal payments received) or fair value, calculated on an aggregate basis. At June 30, 2018 and 2017 the Company had no loans held for sale.

KENTUCKY FIRST FEDERAL BANCORP

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

June 30, 2018 and 2017

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

5. Loans held for sale and Mortgage Servicing Rights: (continued)

In selling loans, the Company utilizes a program with the Federal Home Loan Bank, retaining servicing on loans sold. Mortgage servicing rights on originated loans that have been sold are initially recorded at fair value. Capitalized servicing rights are amortized in proportion to and over the period of estimated servicing revenues. The Company recorded amortization related to mortgage servicing rights totaling $12,000 and $13,000 during the years ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The carrying value of the Company’s mortgage servicing rights, which approximated fair value, totaled approximately $82,000 and $87,000 at June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

The Company was servicing mortgage loans of approximately $10.3 million and $10.8 million that had been sold to the Federal Home Loan Bank at June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, we sold $929,000 in loans under the FHLB program and the average balance of loans serviced was $10.4 million.

Servicing rights are evaluated for impairment based upon the fair value of the rights as compared to carrying amount. Impairment is recognized through a valuation allowance for an individual grouping, to the extent that fair value is less than the carrying amount. If the Company later determines that all or a portion of the impairment no longer exists for a particular grouping, a reduction of the allowance may be recorded as an increase to income. Changes in valuation allowances are reported with other non-interest income on the income statement. The fair values of servicing rights are subject to significant fluctuations as a result of changes in estimated and actual prepayment speeds and default rates and losses.

Servicing fee income which is reported on the income statement as other non-interest income is recorded for fees earned for servicing loans. The fees are based on a contractual percentage of the outstanding principal and are recorded as income when earned. The amortization of mortgage servicing rights is netted against loan servicing fee income. Servicing fees totaled $17,000 and $19,000 for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Late fees and ancillary fees related to loan servicing are not material.

6. Allowance for Loan Losses: The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectability of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. Management estimates the allowance balance required using past loss experience, the nature and volume of the portfolio, trends in the level of delinquent and problem loans, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral and current and anticipated economic conditions in the primary lending area. Allocations of the allowance may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in management’s judgment, should be charged off.

The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are individually classified as impaired or loans otherwise classified as substandard or doubtful. The general component covers all loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for current factors. In consultation with regulators, the Company considers a time frame of two years when estimating the appropriate level of allowance for loan losses. This period may be shortened or extended based on anticipated trends in the banks or in the banks’ markets.

6. Allowance for loan losses: (continued)

The historical loss experience is determined by portfolio segment and is based on the actual loss history experienced by the Company over the most recent eight quarters. This actual loss experience is supplemented with other economic factors based on the risks present for each portfolio segment.

These economic factors include consideration of the following: levels of and trends in delinquencies and impaired loans; levels of and trends in charge-offs and recoveries; trends in volume and terms of loans; changes in lending policies, procedures and practices; experience, ability and depth of lending management and other relevant staff; economic trends and conditions; industry conditions; and effects of changes in credit concentrations. Our portfolio segments include residential real estate, nonresidential real estate and land, loans on deposits and consumer and other loans. Risk factors associated with our portfolio segments are as follows:

Residential Real Estate

Our primary lending activity is the origination of mortgage loans, which enable a borrower to purchase or refinance existing homes in the Banks’ respective market areas. We further classify our residential real estate loans as one- to four-family (owner-occupied vs nonowner-occupied), multi-family or construction. We believe that our first mortgage position on loans secured by residential real estate presents lower risk than our other loans, with the exception of loans secured by deposits.

We offer a mix of adjustable-rate and fixed-rate mortgage loans with terms up to 30 years for owner-occupied properties. For these properties a borrower may be able to borrow up to 95% of the value with private mortgage insurance. Alternatively, the borrower may be able to borrow up to 90% of the value through other programs offered by the bank.

We offer loans on one- to four-family rental properties at a maximum of 80% loan-to-value (“LTV”) ratio and we generally charge a slightly higher interest rate on such loans.

We also originate loans to individuals to finance the construction of residential dwellings for personal use or for use as rental property. We occasionally lend to builders for construction of speculative or custom residential properties for resale, but on a limited basis. Construction loans are generally less than one year in length, do not exceed 80% of the appraised value, and provide for the payment of interest only during the construction phase. Funds are disbursed as progress is made toward completion of the construction.

Multi-family and Nonresidential Loans

We offer mortgage loans secured by residential multi-family (five or more units), and nonresidential real estate. Nonresidential real estate loans are comprised generally of commercial office buildings, churches and properties used for other purposes. Generally, these loans are originated for 25 years or less and do not exceed 80% of the appraised value. Loans secured by multi-family and commercial real estate generally have larger balances and involve a greater degree of risk than one- to four-family residential mortgage loans. These loans depend on the borrower’s creditworthiness and the feasibility and cash flow potential of the project. Payments on loans secured by income properties often depend on successful operation and management of the properties. As a result, repayment on such loans may be subject to a greater extent to adverse conditions in the real estate market or economy than owner-occupied residential loans.

6. Allowance for loan losses: (continued)

Consumer lending

Our consumer loans include home equity lines of credit, loans secured by savings deposits, automobile loans, and unsecured loans. Home equity loans are generally second mortgage loans subordinate only to first mortgages also held by the bank and do not exceed 80% of the estimated value of the property. We do offer home equity loans up to 90% of the estimated value to qualified borrowers and these loans carry a premium rate. Loans secured by savings are originated up to 90% of the depositor’s savings account balance and bear interest at a rate higher than the rate paid on the deposit account. Because the deposit account must be pledged as collateral to secure the loan, the inherent risk of this type of loan is minimal. Loans secured by automobiles are made directly to consumers (there are no relationships with dealers) and are based on the value of the vehicle and the borrower’s creditworthiness. Vehicle loans present a higher level of risk because of the natural decline in the value of the property as well as its mobility. Unsecured loans are based entirely on the borrower’s creditworthiness and present the highest level of risk to the bank.

The Banks choose the most appropriate method for accounting for impaired loans. For secured loans, which make up the vast majority of the loans in the banks’ portfolio, this method involves determining the fair value of the collateral, reduced by estimated selling costs. Where appropriate, the Banks would account for impaired loans by determining the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate.

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that a creditor will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Although most of our loans are secured by collateral, we rely heavily on the capacity of our borrowers to generate sufficient cash flow to service their debt. As a result, our loans do not become collateral-dependent until there is deterioration in the borrower’s cash flow and financial condition, which makes it necessary for us to look to the collateral for our sole source of repayment. Collateral-dependent loans which are more than ninety days delinquent are considered to constitute more than a minimum delay in repayment and are evaluated for impairment under the policy at that time.

We utilize updated independent appraisals to determine fair value for collateral-dependent loans, adjusted for estimated selling costs, in determining our specific reserve. In some situations management does not secure an updated independent appraisal. These situations may involve small loan amounts or loans that, in management’s opinion, have an abnormally low loan-to-value ratio.

With respect to the Banks’ investment in troubled debt restructurings, multi-family and nonresidential loans, and the evaluation of impairment thereof, such loans are nonhomogenous and, as such, may be deemed to be collateral-dependent when they become more than ninety days delinquent. We obtain updated independent appraisals in these situations or when we suspect that the previous appraisal may no longer be reflective of the property’s current fair value. This process varies from loan to loan, borrower to borrower, and also varies based on the nature of the collateral.

7. Federal Home Loan Bank Stock: The banks are members of the FHLB system. Members are required to own a certain amount of stock based on the level of borrowings and other factors, and may invest in additional amounts. FHLB stock is carried at cost, classified as a restricted security, and periodically evaluated for impairment based on ultimate recovery of par value. Both cash and stock dividends are reported as interest income.

8. Real Estate Owned: Real estate acquired through or instead of foreclosure is initially recorded at fair value less estimated selling expenses at the date of acquisition, establishing a new cost basis. These assets are subsequently accounted for at lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell. If fair value declines subsequently, the carrying value is adjusted through a valuation allowance and the amount is recorded through expense. Costs relating to holding real estate owned, net of rental income, are charged against earnings as incurred.

9. Premises and Equipment: Land is carried at cost. Premises and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. The cost of premises and equipment includes expenditures which extend the useful lives of existing assets. Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are expensed as incurred. For financial reporting, depreciation is provided on the straight-line method over the useful lives of the assets, estimated to be forty years for buildings, ten to forty years for building improvements, and five to ten years for furniture and equipment.

10. Income Taxes: Income tax expense is the total of the current year income tax due or refundable and the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are the expected future tax amounts for the temporary differences between carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities, computed using enacted tax rates. Deferred tax assets are recorded only to the extent that the amount of net deductible temporary differences or carryforward attributes may be utilized against current period earnings, carried back against prior years’ earnings, offset against taxable temporary differences reversing in future periods, or utilized to the extent of management’s estimate of future taxable income. A valuation allowance, if needed, reduces deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Deferred tax liabilities are provided on the total amount of net temporary differences taxable in the future.

A tax provision is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. The Company recognizes interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters as income tax expense.

Kentucky First Federal Bancorp and Frankfort First Bancorp, Inc., each are subject to state income taxes in the Commonwealth of Kentucky. Neither of the Banks are subject to state income tax in the Commonwealth. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2015.

11. Retirement and Employee Benefit Plans: The Banks participate in the Pentegra Defined Benefit Plan for Financial Institutions (“The Pentegra DB Plan”), which is a tax-qualified, multi-employer defined benefit pension fund covering all employees who qualify as to length of service. The Pentegra DB Plan’s Employer Identification Number is 13-5645888 and the Plan Number is 333. The Pentegra DB Plan operates as a multi-employer plan for accounting purposes and as a multiple-employer plan under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 and the Internal Revenue Code. The Pentegra DB Plan is a single plan under Internal Revenue Code Section 413(c) and, as a result, all of the assets stand behind all of the liabilities. Accordingly, under the Pentegra DB Plan contributions made by a participating employer may be used to provide benefits to participants of other participating employers. Total contributions made to the Pentegra DB Plan, as reported on Form 5500, equal $153.2 million and $163.1 million for the plan years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Our contributions for fiscal 2018 and 2017 were not more than 5% of the total contributions made to the Pentegra DB Plan. Pension expense is the net contributions, which are based upon covered employees’ ages and salaries and are dependent upon the ultimate prescribed benefits of the participants and the funded status of the plan. The Company recognized expense related to the plans totaling approximately $957,000 and $695,000 for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. There are no collective bargaining agreements in place that require contributions to the Pentegra DB Plan. As of July 1, 2017, the most recent period for which information is available, the Banks had an adjusted funding target attainment percentage (“AFTAP”) of 89.05%. There are no funding improvement plans or surcharges to participants. Effective July 1, 2016, sponsorship of the plan was transferred to the Company, benefits ratios were standardized and prospectively each bank will contribute to the plan based generally on its pro rata share of future benefits.

The Company also maintains a nonqualified deferred compensation plan for the benefit of certain directors, which is closed to any future deferrals. The expense incurred for the deferred compensation was $1,000 for each of the fiscal years ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, while the liabilities totaled $47,000 and $45,000 at June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

The Company maintains an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”) which provides retirement benefits for substantially all full-time employees who have completed one year of service and have attained the age of 21. Annual contributions are made to the ESOP equal to the ESOP’s debt service less dividends received by the ESOP on unallocated shares. Shares in the ESOP were acquired using funds provided by a loan from the Company and, accordingly, the cost of those shares is shown as a reduction of stockholders’ equity. Shares are released to participants proportionately as the loan is repaid. Dividends on allocated shares are recorded as dividends and charged to retained earnings. Dividends on unallocated shares are used to repay loan principal and accrued interest. Compensation expense is recorded equal to the fair value of shares committed to be released during a given fiscal year. Allocation of shares to the ESOP participants is contingent upon the repayment of a loan to Kentucky First Federal Bancorp totaling $991,000 and $1.2 million at June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The Company recorded expense for the ESOP of approximately $178,000 and $213,000 for the years ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Shares may be surrendered from the plan as employees leave employment. Total shares surrendered from the plan totaled 156,700 and 155,794 at June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The amounts contributed to the ESOP were $280,000 for each of the years 2018 and 2017.

13. Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities: Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair values:

Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

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

Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis and recognized in the accompanying balance sheet, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy.

Securities

Where quoted market prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using 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 (Level 2 inputs).

The following table presents the fair value measurements of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2018 and 2017. The securities represented are only those classified as available-for sale.

13. Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities (continued)

Impaired Loans

The fair value of impaired loans with specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses is generally based on recent independent real estate appraisals. Independent appraisals for collateral-dependent loans are updated periodically (usually every 12-24 months depending on the size of the loan and the loan-to-value ratio). These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value and totaled $84,000 and $0 for the years ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Real Estate Owned

Real estate properties acquired through or instead of loan foreclosure are initially recorded as real estate owned (“REO”) at fair value, less costs to sell when acquired, establishing a new cost basis. These assets are subsequently accounted for at lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell. Fair value is commonly based on recent real estate appraisals which are updated no less frequently than annually. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach with data from comparable properties. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments were $37,000 and $171,000 for the fiscal years 2018 and 2017, respectively, and resulted in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.

The following table presents the fair value measurements of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis at June 30, 2018 and 2017.

The following disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments, both assets and liabilities, whether or not recognized in the consolidated balance sheet, is based on the assumptions presented for each particular item and for which it is practicable to estimate that value. For financial instruments where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value and other valuation methods.

The methods used are greatly affected by the assumptions applied, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. Therefore, the fair values presented may not represent amounts that could be realized in an exchange for certain financial instruments.

The following methods were used to estimate the fair value of all other financial instruments recognized in the accompanying balance sheets at amounts other than fair value at June 30, 2018 and 2017:

Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying amounts presented in the consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents are deemed to approximate fair value.

Time Deposits in other Financial Institutions: The carrying amounts presented in the consolidated balance sheets for time deposits in other financial institutions are deemed to approximate fair value.

Held-to-maturity securities: For held-to-maturity securities, fair value methods for securities were previously described.

Loans: The loan portfolio has been segregated into categories with similar characteristics, such as one- to four-family residential, multi-family residential and nonresidential real estate. These loan categories were further delineated into fixed-rate and adjustable-rate loans. The fair values for the resultant loan categories were computed via discounted cash flow analysis, using current interest rates offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. For loans on deposit accounts and consumer and other loans, fair values were deemed to equal the historic carrying values. Impaired loans are valued at the lower of cost or fair value as previously described.

Federal Home Loan Bank stock: It was not practicable to determine the fair value of FHLB stock due to restrictions placed on its transferability.

Accrued interest receivable and payable: The carrying amount is the estimated fair value.

Deposits: The fair value of NOW accounts, passbook accounts, and money market deposits are deemed to approximate the amount payable on demand. Fair values for fixed-rate certificates of deposit have been estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation using the interest rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

Federal Home Loan Bank advances: The fair value of these advances is estimated using the rates currently offered for similar advances of similar remaining maturities or, when available, quoted market prices.

Advances by borrowers for taxes and insurance and accrued interest payable: The carrying amount presented in the consolidated statement of financial condition is deemed to approximate fair value.

Commitments to extend credit: For fixed-rate and adjustable-rate loan commitments, the fair value estimate considers the difference between current levels of interest rates and committed rates. The fair value of outstanding loan commitments at June 30, 2018 and 2017 was not material.

14. Cash and Cash Equivalents: For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash and due from banks and interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions with original maturities of less than ninety days.

15. Goodwill: Goodwill resulting from business combinations prior to January 1, 2009 represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets of businesses acquired. Goodwill resulting from business combinations after January 1, 2009, is generally determined as the excess of the fair value of the consideration transferred, plus the fair value of any noncontrolling interests in the acquiree, over the fair value of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date. Goodwill and intangible assets acquired in a purchase business combination and determined to have an indefinite useful life are not amortized, but tested for impairment at least annually. The Company has selected March 31 as the date to perform the annual impairment test. Intangible assets with definite useful lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values. Goodwill is the only intangible asset with an indefinite life on our balance sheet.

16. Cash Surrender Value of Bank-Owned Life Insurance: First Federal of Kentucky has purchased life insurance policies on certain key executives. Bank-owned life insurance is recorded at the amount that can be realized under the insurance contract at the balance sheet date, which is the cash surrender value adjusted for other charges or other amounts due that are probable at settlement.

17. Treasury Stock: Treasury stock is stated at cost. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out method.

18. Related Party Transactions: The Banks have made loans and other extensions of credit to related parties, which, in the opinion of management, were made in the ordinary course of business and were made on substantially the same terms (including interest rates and collateral requirements) as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with other persons. Further, in management’s opinion, these loans did not involve more than normal risk of collectability or present other unfavorable features. Loans outstanding to executive officers, directors, significant shareholders and their affiliates (related parties) at June 30, 2018 and 2017 are summarized as follows:

(in thousands)	2018			2017

Outstanding principal, beginning of year	$	983		$	1,043

Deposits from related parties held by the Company at June 30, 2018 and 2017 totaled $1.9 million and $2.9 million, respectively.

19. Comprehensive Income and Accumulated Comprehensive Income: Comprehensive income consists of net income and other comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income includes changes in unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale, net of tax, for the period which are also recognized as separate components of equity. Accumulated comprehensive income consists solely of unrealized gain or loss on available-for sale securities at the end of the period.

20. Loss Contingencies: Loss contingencies, including claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business, are recorded as liabilities when the likelihood of loss is probable and an amount or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. Management does not believe there now are such matters that will have a material effect on the financial statements.

21. Loan Commitments and Related Financial Instruments: Financial instruments include off-balance sheet credit instruments, such as commitments to make loans and commercial letters of credit, issued to meet customer financing needs. The face amount for these items represents the exposure to loss, before considering customer collateral or ability to repay. Such financial instruments are recorded when they are funded.

22. Dividend Restriction: Banking regulations require maintaining certain capital levels and may limit the dividends paid by the banks to the holding company or by the holding company to shareholders.

23. Operating Segments: While the chief decision-makers monitor the revenue streams of the various products and services, operations are managed and financial performance is evaluated on a Company-wide basis. Operating segments are aggregated into one as operating results for all segments are similar. Accordingly, all of the financial service operations are considered by management to be aggregated in one reportable operating segment.

24. Reclassifications: Some items in the prior year financial statements were reclassified to conform to the current presentation. Reclassifications had no effect on prior year net income or shareholders’ equity.

25. New Accounting Standards:

FASB ASC 606 - In May 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised 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. Additional disclosures are required to provide quantitative and qualitative information regarding the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14 which deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-09. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, which clarified the revenue recognition implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations and is effective during the same period as ASU 2014-09. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, which clarified the revenue recognition guidance regarding the identification of performance obligations and the licensing implementation and is effective during the same period as ASU 2014-09. In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-12, which narrowly amended the revenue recognition guidance regarding collectability, noncash consideration, presentation of sales tax and transition. ASU 2016-12 is effective during the same period as ASU 2014-09. The amendments related to this new standard become effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, or the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2018, with respect to the Company. Management adopted the provisions of ASU 2014-09, ASU 2016-08, ASU 2016-10 and ASU 2016-12 with respect to deferred revenue on the sale of other real estate owned as of July 1, 2018. Recognition of the new standard resulted in the increase of $ 441,000 to retained earnings on the Company’s financial statements.

The amendments in this update impact public business entities as follows: 1) Require equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting or those that result in consolidation of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. 2) Simplify the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values by requiring a qualitative assessment to identify impairment. When a qualitative assessment indicates that impairment exists, an entity is required to measure the investment at fair value. 3) Eliminate the requirement to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet. 4) Require entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes. 5) Require an entity to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk when the entity has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments. 6) Require separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset (that is, securities or loans and receivables) on the balance sheet or the accompanying notes to the financial statements. 7) Clarify that an entity should evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale securities in combination with the entity’s other deferred tax assets. The amendments in this update became effective July 1, 2018, and did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

FASB ASC 842 - In February 2016, the FASB issued an update ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). Under the new guidance, lessees will be required to recognize the following for all leases, with the exception of short-term leases, at the commencement date: a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. Under the new guidance, lessor accounting is largely unchanged. The amendments in this update become effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting the new guidance on the consolidated financial statements, but it is not expected to have a material impact.

FASB ASC 326 - In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The final standard will change estimates for credit losses related to financial assets measured at amortized cost such as loans, held-to-maturity debt securities, and certain other contracts. For estimating credit losses, the FASB is replacing the incurred loss model with an expected loss model, which is referred to as the current expected credit loss (CECL) model. Financial institutions and other organizations will now use forward-looking information to enhance their credit loss estimates. The amendment required enhanced disclosures to aid investors and other users of financial statements to better understand significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of an organization’s portfolio. The largest impact to the Company will be on its allowance for loan and lease losses, although the ASU also amends the accounting for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. The standard is effective public companies for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, or in the Company’s case the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2020. ASU 2016-13 will be applied through a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings (modified-retrospective approach), except for debt securities for which an other-than-temporary impairment had been recognized before the effective date. A prospective transition approach is required for these debt securities. We have formed a functional committee that is assessing our data and system needs and are evaluating the impact of adopting the new guidance. We expect to recognize a one-time cumulative effect adjustment to the allowance for loan losses as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the new standard is effective, but cannot yet determine the magnitude of any such one-time adjustment or the overall impact of the new guidance on the consolidated financial statements. However, the Company does expect ASU 2016-13 to add complexity and costs to its current credit loss evaluation process.

FASB ASC 740 – In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-16, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory. This new guidance seeks to reduce a diversity in practice and a source of complexity, which has resulted from an exception found in current guidance related to recognition of current and deferred income taxes for an intra-entity asset transfer. Current guidance prohibits the recognition of current and deferred income taxes for such intra-entity asset transfer until the asset has been sold to an outside party. This prohibition is an exception to the principle of comprehensive recognition of current and deferred income taxes in generally accepted accounting principles. As a result, this update eliminates the exception for intra-entity transfer of assets other than inventory. This update does not include new disclosure requirements. For public business entities the amendments in this update are effective for annual reporting periods including interim periods within those annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, or the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2018, for the Company. Any changes resulting from the application of this update are to be applied on a modified retrospective basis though a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The amendments in this update became effective July 1, 2018, and did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

FASB ASC 805 – In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, to clarify the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The amendments in this update provide a more robust framework to use in determining when a set of assets and activities is a business. The amendments provide more consistency in applying the guidance, which is expected to reduce the costs of application and make the definition of a business more operable. The amendments in this update became effective July 1, 2018, and did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

FASB ASC 350 – In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles: Goodwill and Other: Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, to simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. In computing the implied fair value of goodwill under Step 2, an entity had to perform procedures to determine the fair value at the impairment testing date of its assets and liabilities (including unrecognized assets and liabilities) following the procedure that would be required in determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Instead, under the amendments in this update, an entity is to perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount and should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value up to the amount of the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. Additionally, an entity should consider income tax effects from any tax deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. A public business entity that is a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filer should adopt the amendments for its annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted in interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company has adopted ASU No. 2017-04 with regard to its goodwill impairment test performed as of March 31, 2017, with no material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

FASB ASC 610 – In February 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-05, Other Income-Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Topic 610): Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets. The purpose of this update is to clarify the scope of guidance in the May 2014 issue of ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which provided guidance for recognizing gains and losses from the transfer of nonfinancial assets in contracts with noncustomers. The amendments in this update differ from current GAAP primarily for the real estate industry, but may affect other industries. The amendments in this update define the term “in substance nonfinancial asset,” in part, as a financial asset promised to a counterparty in a contract, if substantially all of the fair value of the assets (recognized and unrecognized) that are promised to the counterparty in the contract is concentrated in nonfinancial assets. If substantially all of the fair value of the assets that are promised to the counterparty in a contact is concentrated in nonfinancial assets, then all of the financial assets promised to the counterparty are in substance nonfinancial assets. Further, a contract that includes the transfer of ownership interests in one or more consolidated subsidiaries is within the scope of Subtopic 610-20, if substantially all of the fair value of the assets that are promised to the counterparty in a contract is concentrated in nonfinancial assets. The amendments in this update also address partial sales in that they require an entity to derecognize a distinct nonfinancial asset or distinct in substance nonfinancial asset in a partial sale transaction when it (1) does not have (or ceases to have) a controlling financial interest in the legal entity that holds the asset in accordance with Topic 810 and (2) transfers control of the asset in accordance with Topic 606. Once an entity transfers control of a distinct nonfinancial asset or distinct in substance nonfinancial asset, it is required to measure any noncontrolling interest it receives (or retains) at fair value. The amendments became effective July 1, 2018, and did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

FASB ASC 715 – In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07, Compensation-Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost. This update is primarily to improve the consistency, transparency, and usefulness of financial information to users that have communicated that the service cost component is analyzed differently from the other components of net benefit cost. The amendments in this update require than an employer report the service cost component in the same line item or items as other compensation costs arising from the services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period. The other components of net benefit cost as defined in paragraphs 715-30-35-4 and 715-60-35-9 are required to be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost component and outside a subtotal of income from operations, if one is presented. The amendments in this Update also allow only the service cost component to be eligible for capitalization when applicable. The amendments in this update require an employer to disaggregate the service cost component from the other components of net benefit cost. The amendments also provide explicit guidance on how to present the service cost component and the other components of net benefit cost in the income statement and allow only the service cost component of net benefit cost to be eligible for capitalization. The amendments became effective July 1, 2018, and did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

FASB ASC 310 – In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-08, Receivables- Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities. The amendments in this update shorten the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium. Specifically, the amendments requite the premium to be amortized to the earliest call date. The amendments do not require an accounting change for securities held at a discount; the discount continues to be amortized to maturity. The amendments in this update more closely align the amortization period of premiums and discounts to expectations incorporated in market pricing on the underlying securities, which, in turn, are expected to more closely align interest income recorded on bonds held at a premium or a discount with the economics of the underlying instrument. For public business entities, the amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years, and the interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Changes resulting from the amendments in this update should be recognized on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. Additionally, in the period of adoption, an entity should provide disclosures about a change in accounting principle. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting the new guidance on the consolidated financial statements, but it is not expected to have a material impact.

NOTE B - SECURITIES

The following table summarizes the amortized cost and fair value of the available for sale securities and held to maturity investment securities portfolio at June 30, 2018 and 2017 and the corresponding amounts of gross unrealized or unrecognized gains and losses. Unrealized gains or losses apply to available-for-sale securities and are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income, while unrecognized gains or losses on held-to-maturity securities are not recognized in the financial statements. The gains and losses are as follows:

	2018
(in thousands)	Amortized cost		Gross unrealized/ unrecognized gains		Gross unrealized/ unrecognized losses		Estimated fair value

Available-for-sale Securities
Agency mortgage-backed:residential	$	48	$	-	$	-	$	48

Held-to-maturity Securities
Agency mortgage-backed: residential	$	1.487	$	45	$	9	$	1.523

At June 30, 2018, the Company’s debt securities consisted of mortgage-backed securities, which do not have a single maturity date.

There were no sales of securities during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017, the Company sold its investment in Federal Home Loan Mortgage Company (“Freddie Mac”) stock and recognized gain of $64,000. At June 30, 2018 the Company had $21,000 in securities with unrealized losses for a period exceeding twelve months and $2,000 in securities with unrealized losses for a period of less than twelve months, while at June 30, 2017, the Company had $9,000 in securities with unrealized losses for a period of less than twelve months. Unrealized losses on agency mortgage-backed securities have not been recognized into income because they are of high credit quality (rated AA or higher), management does not intend to sell and it is likely that management will not be required to sell the securities prior to their anticipated recovery, and the decline in fair value is largely due to changes in interest rates and other market conditions. The fair value is expected to recover as the investments reach maturity.

At June 30, 2018 and 2017, pledged securities totaled $2.1 million and $2.3 million, respectively. At June 30, 2018 and 2017, the pledged total included term deposits and/or overnight deposits of $1.5 million and $1.5 million, respectively.

Troubled Debt Restructurings:

During the year ended June 30, 2018, the terms of four one- to four family residential real estate loans totaling $440,000 were modified as troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs.”) Two loans totaling $325,000 were refinanced because we determined the borrowers could likely not have obtained financing from another lender given their circumstances at the time of refinancing. Two loans totaling $93,000 were modified under Chapter 7 bankruptcy proceedings in which neither borrower re-affirmed his personal liability to repay the loan. One loan totaling $23,000 was modified to reduce the interest rate and to extend the loan term. Although the interest rate on this loan was the same rate offered to other customers at the time, the credit was determined to be a TDR because the borrower’s credit worthiness had deteriorated. Because the restructured loan bears interest at the same rate offered to other such borrowers and the repayment period was extended slightly, the borrower is expected to be able to service the debt as restructured.

During the year ended June 30, 2017, the terms of a single one- to four family residential real estate loan totaling $99,000 was modified as a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR.”) The loan was modified to extend the loan term, because the borrower was exhibiting financial difficulty in making the original debt payments. Because the restructured loan bears interest at the same rate offered to other such borrowers and the repayment period was extended slightly, the borrower is expected to be able to service the debt as restructured.

In order to determine whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, we consider the probability that the borrower will be in payment default on any of its debt in the foreseeable future without the modification. This evaluation is performed under the Company’s internal underwriting policy.

Credit Quality Indicators:

The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. The Company analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk. This analysis is performed on an annual basis. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:

Special Mention. Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the institution’s credit position at some future date.

Substandard. Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Doubtful. Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in 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, highly questionable and improbable.

At June 30, 2018 interest rates for advances were fixed ranging from 1.57% to 2.30%, with a weighted-average interest rate of 2.03%.

At June 30, 2017 interest rates for advances were fixed ranging from 0.81% to 6.20%, with a weighted-average interest rate of 1.29%.

Each advance is payable at its maturity date, with a prepayment penalty for fixed rate advances. Based on collateral composed of first mortgage loans and the Company’s holdings of FHLB stock, the Company was eligible to borrow up to $127.4 million as of June 30, 2018. In addition, we have the ability to borrow from the Federal Reserve Bank Discount Window. At June 30, 2018, based on home equity loans and share loans we had pledged collateral which would enable us to borrow up to $5.4 million.

Prior to 1997, the Banks were allowed a special bad debt deduction, generally limited to 8% of otherwise taxable income, and subject to certain limitations based on aggregate loans and deposit account balances at the end of the year. If the amounts that qualified as deductions for federal income taxes are later used for purposes other than bad debt losses, including distributions in excess of accumulated earnings and profits, such distributions will be subject to federal income taxes at the then current corporate income tax rate. Retained earnings at June 30, 2018, include approximately $5.2 million for which federal income taxes have not been provided. The amount of unrecognized deferred tax liability relating to the cumulative bad debt deduction was approximately $1.1 million at June 30, 2018.

NOTE I - LOAN COMMITMENTS

The Banks are a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of their customers, including commitments to extend credit. Such commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest-rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated statements of financial condition. The contract or notional amounts of the commitments reflect the extent of the Banks’ involvement in such financial instruments.

The Banks’ exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual notional amount of those instruments. The Banks use the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as those utilized for on-balance-sheet instruments.

The fixed rate loan commitments at June 30, 2017 totaled $2.0 million and had interest rates ranging from 4.0% to 4.70% with maturities ranging from 7 years to 20 years.

NOTE J – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY AND REGULATORY CAPITAL

Dividend Restrictions – Dividends from the Banks are the primary source of funds for the Company. Banking regulations limit the amount of dividends that may be paid to the Company by the Banks without prior approval of the Office of the Controller of the Currency (the “OCC.”) Under these regulations the amount of dividends that may be paid in any calendar year is limited to the current year’s net profits, combined with the retained net profits of the preceding two years. At June 30, 2018, the Banks could, without prior approval, declare no dividends.

Federal regulations require the Banks comply with the Qualified Thrift Lender (“QTL”) test, which requires that 65% of assets be maintained in housing-related finance and other specified assets. If the QTL test is not met, limits are placed on growth, branching, new investment, FHLB advances, and dividends or the institutions must convert to a commercial bank charter. Management believes that the QTL test has been met for both Banks.

Regulatory Capital Requirements - The Banks are subject to minimum regulatory capital standards promulgated by the OCC. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory -- and possibly additional discretionary -- actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and the Banks must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.

Prompt corrective action regulations provide five classifications: well-capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized, and critically undercapitalized, although these terms are not used to represent overall financial condition. If adequately capitalized, regulatory approval is required to accept brokered deposits. If undercapitalized, capital distributions are limited, as is asset growth and expansion, and capital restoration plans are required.

June 30, 2018 and 2017

NOTE J - REGULATORY CAPITAL (continued)

Capital Standards – Effective January 1, 2015, the Company and the Banks became subject to the regulatory capital reforms in accordance with Basel III, which established higher minimum risk-based capital ratio requirements, a new common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio and a new capital conservation buffer (“CCB.”) The regulations also included revisions to the definition of capital and changes in the risk-weighting of certain assets, in addition to redefining “well capitalized” as a 6.5% common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio, an 8.0% Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio, a 10.0% total risk-based capital ratio and a 5.0% Tier 1 leverage ratio.

Additionally, the CCB, which is applicable to the above minimum risk-based capital requirements, was introduced. The CCB will eventually be 2.5% and is being phased in over a five year period. The current CCB is equal to 1.25% and increases 0.625% annually through 2019 to 2.5%. The Company and the Banks, in order to avoid limitations on capital distributions, including dividend payments, engaging in share repurchases and certain discretionary bonus payments to executive officers, must maintain the CCB at the appropriate level.

To be categorized as “well-capitalized” the Banks must maintain minimum capital ratios as set forth in the following tables, which do not include the CCB:

There are no conditions or subsequent events that have occurred that managements believes have changed the Banks’ categories.

Regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System governing mutual holding companies require First Federal MHC to meet certain criteria before the company may waive the receipt by it of any common stock dividend declared by Kentucky First Federal Bancorp. During each of the fiscal years ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, and pursuant to the provisions allowed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, First Federal MHC waived $1.9 million in dividends.
