PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Lincoln Park Bancorp (the "Company") and its wholly owned subsidiary, Lincoln Park Savings Bank (the "Bank"). The Company's business is conducted principally through the Bank. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. 2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-QSB and regulation S-X and do not include information or footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements have been included. The results of operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2005, are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the entire fiscal year. 3. NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE Basic and diluted net income per share were computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding, adjusted for unearned shares of the ESOP. Diluted net income per share did not differ from basic net income per share as there were no contracts or securities exercisable or which could be converted into common stock which would have a diluted effect. 4. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES We consider accounting policies involving significant judgments and assumptions by management that have, or could have, a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets or on income to be critical accounting policies. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant changes relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses. Determining the amount of the allowance for loan losses necessarily involves a high degree of judgment. Management reviews the level of the allowance on a quarterly basis, at a minimum, and establishes the provision for loan losses based on the composition of the loan portfolio, delinquency levels, loss experience, economic conditions, and other factors related to the collectibility of the loan portfolio. Since there has been no material shift in loan portfolio, the level of the allowance for loan losses has changed primarily due to changes in the size of the loan portfolio and the level of nonperforming loans. We have allocated the allowance among categories of loan types as well as classification status at each period-end date. Assumptions and allocation percentages based on loan types and classification status have been consistently applied. Management regularly evaluates various risk factors related to the loan portfolio, such as type of loan, underlying collateral and payment status, and the corresponding allowance allocation percentages. -7- LINCOLN PARK BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ------------------------------------------ 4. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT'D) Although we believe that we use the best information available to establish the allowance for loan losses, future additions to the allowance may be necessary based on estimates that are susceptible to change as a result of changes in economic conditions and other factors. In addition, the regulatory authorities, as an integral part of their examinations process, periodically reviews our allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require us to recognize adjustments to the allowance based on its judgments about information available to it at the time of their examinations. 5. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), "Share-Based Payment" ("SFAS No. 123R"). SFAS No. 123R revises FASB Statement No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and its related implementation guidance. SFAS No. 123R will require compensation costs related to share-based payment transactions to be recognized in the financial statements (with limited exceptions). The amount of compensation cost will be measured based on the grant-date fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. Compensation costs will be recognized over the period that an employee provides service in exchange for the award. SFAS No. 123R was (originally) effective for public companies that do not file as small business issuers as of the beginning of the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005. However, on April 14, 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") amended the compliance dates for SFAS No. 123R. Under the new rule, the Company is required to adopt SFAS No. 123R at the beginning of its next fiscal year. The Company has not yet determined the method of adoption or the effect of adopting SFAS No. 123R. -8- LINCOLN PARK BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARY MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS --------------------------------------------- ITEM 2. FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENT This Form 10-QSB may include certain forward-looking statements based on current management expectations. The actual results of the Company could differ materially from those management expectations. Factors that could cause future results to vary from current management expectations include, but are not limited to, general economic conditions, legislative and regulatory changes, monetary and fiscal policies of the federal government, changes in tax policies, rates and regulations of federal, state and local tax authorities, changes in interest rates, deposit flows, the cost of funds, demand for loan products, demand for financial services, competition, changes in the quality or composition of loan and investment portfolios of the Bank, changes in accounting principles, policies or guidelines, and other economic, competitive, governmental and technological factors affecting the Company's operations, markets, products, services and prices. COMPARISON OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AT JUNE 30, 2005 AND DECEMBER 31, 2004 Our total assets increased by $2.5 million, or 2.9%, to $89.2 million at June 30, 2005, from $86.7 million at December 31, 2004. During the six months ended June 30, 2005, the level of cash and cash equivalents decreased by $3.5 million, or 59.2%, to $2.4 million at June 30, 2005 from $5.9 million at December 31, 2004. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents was due to the deployment of funds received in our initial public stock offering in December 2004 into our loan, securities and term deposits portfolios, which increased significantly as noted below. Term deposits increased $497,000 or 615.7% to $578,000 at June 30, 2005 when compared with $81,000 at December 31, 2004. The increase in term deposits during the 2005 period resulted from the deployment of cash proceeds from the offering. Securities available for sale decreased $1.1 million or 24.9% to $3.2 million at June 30, 2005 when compared with $4.3 million at December 31, 2004. The decrease in securities available for sale during the 2005 period resulted primarily from maturities and repayments of $1.1 million. Securities held to maturity increased by $2.1 million or 12.1% to $19.1 million at June 30, 2005 when compared with $17.0 million at December 31, 2004. During the six months ended June 30, 2005, purchases of securities held to maturity amounted to $3.5 million which was sufficient to offset maturities and repayments of $1.4 million. The increase in securities held to maturity was funded by the deployment of cash proceeds from the offering. Loans receivable amounts to $61.5 million and $57.2 million at June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively, representing an increase of $4.3 million or 7.5%. Our increase in loans resulted primarily from increased one-to four family mortgage loan and consumer loan originations as borrowers continued to take advantage of low market interest rates. The loans receivable was funded by borrowings. Federal Home Loan Bank of New York ("FHLB") stock increased $194,000 or 24.0% to $1.0 million at June 30, 2005 when compared with $807,000 at June 30, 2004, primarily due to an increase in borrowings. -9- LINCOLN PARK BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARY MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS --------------------------------------------- COMPARISON OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AT JUNE 30, 2005 AND DECEMBER 31, 2004 (CONT'D.) Total deposits decreased $1.7 million, or 3.0% to $55.5 million at June 30, 2005 from $57.2 million at December 31, 2004. The decrease in deposits was due to competition from various financial institutions in our market area. Advances from FHLB increased $3.9 million or 24.0% to $20.0 million at June 30, 2005 when compared with $16.1 million at December 31, 2004. The proceeds from new advances were used to fund loan originations. Stockholders' equity totaled $13.1 million and $12.8 million at June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively, reflecting net income of $284,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005. COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2005 AND 2004 GENERAL. Net income increased by $40,000, or 32.3%, to $164,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005, from $124,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004. The increase in net income reflects increases in net interest income and recovery in provision for loan losses, sufficient to offset increases in non-interest expenses and increases in income taxes. INTEREST INCOME. Interest income increased $202,000, or 22.6%, to $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005, from $894,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004. The increase in interest income is due to increases of $147,000 in interest income from loans, $48,000 in interest on securities, and $7,000 in interest income from other interest earning assets. Interest income from loans increased by $147,000, or 21.8%, to $820,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005, from $673,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004. The increase was due to a $9.8 million or 19.4% increase in the average balance of loans to $60.2 million in 2005 from $50.4 million in 2004 and an increase in the average yield to 5.45% from 5.35%. Interest income from securities, including available for sale and held to maturity, increased $48,000, or 22.4%, to $262,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005, from $214,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004. The increase in interest income from securities was due to an increase of $3.2 million or 15.6% in the average balance of securities to $23.7 million in 2005 from $20.5 million in 2004 and an increase in the average yield to 4.42% in 2005 from 4.18% in 2004. Interest income from other interest-earning assets increased $7,000, or 100.0% to $14,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005, from $7,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004. The increase in interest income from other interest-earning assets was due to an increase in the average yield to 3.11 % in 2005 from 1.07% in 2004, sufficient to offset a decrease in the average balance to $1.8 million in 2005 from $2.8 million in 2004. INTEREST EXPENSE. Total interest expense increased $73,000, or 22.5%, to $398,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005, from $325,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004. The interest expense on interest-bearing deposits increased by $22,000 or 9.9% to $245,000 in 2005 when compared with $223,000 in the comparable 2004 period. The increase in interest expense on deposits resulted from an increase in the average cost of interest-bearing deposits to 1.78% from 1.59%, reflecting increasing market interest rates during the period between the comparable quarters. Partially offsetting this increase was a decrease in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits to $55.1 million in 2005 from $56.2 million in 2004. -10- LINCOLN PARK BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARY MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS --------------------------------------------- COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2005 AND 2004 (CONT'D.) The interest expense on borrowed money increased $51,000 or 50.0% to $153,000 in 2005 from $102,000 in comparable 2004 period. The increase resulted from an increase of $5.3 million in the average balance of borrowed money to $18.6 million in 2005 from $13.3 million in 2004 and an increase in cost of borrowed money to 3.28% in 2005 from 3.06% in 2004. NET INTEREST INCOME. Net interest income increased $129,000, or 22.7%, to $698,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005 from $569,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004. Our interest rate spread decreased to 2.96% in 2005 from 2.99% in 2004, reflecting a 29 basis point increase in the cost of our interest bearing liabilities that exceeded a 26 basis point increase in yield on interest-earning assets. Our net interest margin increased to 3.26% from 3.09%. Despite the decline in the net interest spread, net interest income increased due to increases in both total and net interest-earning assets. PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES. We establish provisions for loan losses, which are charged to operations, at a level necessary to absorb known and inherent losses that are both probable and reasonably estimable at the date of the financial statements. In evaluating the level of the allowance for loan losses, management considers historical loss experience, the types of loans and the amount of loans in the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower's ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, and prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available or as future events change. Based on our evaluation of these factors, management recovered $9,000 in provision for loan losses for the three months ended June 30, 2005, and recorded a provision of $3,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004. We had no charge-offs during the three month periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004. We used the same methodology and generally similar assumptions in assessing the allowance for both periods. The allowance for loan losses was $174,000, or 0.28% of gross loans outstanding at June 30, 2005, as compared with $113,000, or 0.22% of gross loans outstanding at June 30, 2004. The level of the allowance is based on estimates, and the ultimate losses may vary from the estimates. NON-INTEREST INCOME. Non-interest income increased $3,000, or 10.3%, to $32,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005, as compared to $29,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004. The primary reason for the increase in non-interest income was an increase of $2,000 in fees and service charges. NON-INTEREST EXPENSES. Non-interest expenses were $469,000 and $393,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, representing an increase of $76,000 or 19.3%. The increase in non-interest expenses is due to increases of $66,000 in other expenses, $7,000 in advertising and $5,000 in equipment. Other expenses increased $66,000 or 60.6% to $173,000 in 2005 from $107,000 in 2004, reflecting the additional expenses associated with being a public company. Advertising expenses increased $7,000 or 77.8% to $16,000 in 2005 from $9,000 in 2004 due to an increase in marketing efforts. Equipment expenses increased $5,000 or 11.1% to $50,000 in 2005 from $45,000 in 2004 due to the upgrade of various equipment. -11- LINCOLN PARK BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARY MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS --------------------------------------------- COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2005 AND 2004 (CONT'D.) INCOME TAX EXPENSE. The provision for income taxes increased to $106,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005 from $78,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004. The increase in the provision for income taxes is primarily due to an increase of $68,000 in income before income taxes to $270,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005, as compared to $202,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004. COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2005 AND 2004 GENERAL. Net income increased $18,000, or 6.8%, to $284,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005, from $266,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004. The increase in net income reflects an increase in net interest income, sufficient to offset increases in provision for loan losses, non-interest expenses and income taxes. INTEREST INCOME. Interest income increased $344,000, or 19.3%, to $2.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005, from $1.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004. The increase in interest income is due to increases of $248,000 in interest income from loans, $85,000 in interest income on securities and $10,000 in interest income from other interest earning assets. Interest income from loans increased by $248,000, or 18.5%, to $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005, from $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004. The increase was due to a $9.2 million or 18.4% increase in the average balance of loans to $59.0 million in 2005 from $49.8 million in 2004. The average yield remained constant at 5.37% in 2005 and 2004. Interest income from securities, including available for sale and held to maturity, increased $86,000, or 19.8%, to $520,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004, from $434,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004. The increase in interest income from securities was due to an increase of $3.1 million or 15.8% in the average balance of securities to $23.6 million in 2005 from $20.3 million in 2004 and an increase in the average yield to 4.40% in 2005 from 4.28% in 2004. Interest income from other interest-earning assets increased $10,000, or 66.7% to $25,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005, from $15,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004. The increase in interest income from other interest-earning assets was due to an increase in the average yield to 2.20 % in 2005 from 1.16% in 2004, sufficient to off-set a decrease in the average balance to $2.3 million in 2005 from $2.6 million in 2004. INTEREST EXPENSE. Total interest expense increased $131,000, or 20.6%, to $766,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005, from $635,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004. The interest expense on interest-bearing deposits increased by $32,000 or 7.2% to $478,000 in 2005 when compared with $446,000 in comparable 2004 period. The increase in interest expense resulted from an increase in the average cost of interest-bearing deposits to 1.73% from 1.60%, reflecting an increase in market interest rates during the period between the comparable periods. Partially offsetting this increase was a decrease in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits to $55.4 million in 2005 from $55.8 million in 2004. The interest expense on borrowed money increased $99,000 or 52.4% to $288,000 in 2005 from $189,000 in comparable 2004 period. The increase resulted from an increase of $4.8 million in the average balance of borrowed money to $17.7 million in 2005 from $12.9 million in 2004, as well as an increase of 32 basis points in cost of borrowed money to 3.25% in 2005 from 2.93% in 2004. -12- LINCOLN PARK BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARY MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS --------------------------------------------- COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2005 AND 2004 (CONT'D.) NET INTEREST INCOME. Net interest income increased $213,000, or 18.5%, to $1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005 from $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004. Our interest rate spread decreased to 2.92% in 2005 from 3.07% in 2004, reflecting an increase of 25 basis points in the cost of our interest-bearing liabilities that exceeded an increase of 10 basis points in the yield on interest-earning assets. Our net interest margin increased to 3.21% from 3.17%. Despite the decline in the net interest spread, net interest income increased due to increases in both total and net interest-earning assets. PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES. Based on our evaluation, we recorded a provision for loan losses of $18,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005, and a recovery of $14,000 in provision for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 2004. We had no charge-offs during the six month periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004. We used the same methodology and generally similar assumptions in assessing the allowance for both periods. The allowance for loan losses was $174,000, or 0.28% of gross loans outstanding at June 30, 2005, as compared with $113,000, or 0.22% of gross loans outstanding at June 30, 2004. The level of the allowance is based on estimates, and the ultimate losses may vary from the estimates. NON-INTEREST INCOME. Non-interest income decreased $10,000, or 17.2%, to $48,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005, as compared to $58,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004. The decrease in non-interest income was due to a decrease of $5,000 in fees and service charges and a loss of $7,000 on the call of securities held to maturity in 2005 compared to a gain of $2,000 on the call of securities in 2004, offset by an increase of $4,000 in other non-interest income. NON-INTEREST EXPENSES. Non-interest expenses were $928,000 and $785,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, representing an increase of $143,000 or 18.2%. The increase in non-interest expenses is primarily due to increases of $126,000 in other non-interest expense, $12,000 in advertising expense and $8,000 in occupancy expense. Other expenses increased $126,000 or 58.9% to $340,000 in 2005 from $214,000 in 2004 reflecting the additional expenses associated with being a public company. Advertising expenses increased $12,000 or 70.6% to $29,000 in 2005 from $17,000 in 2004 due to an increase in marketing efforts. Occupancy expense increased $8,000 or 14.5% to $63,000 in 2005 from $55,000 in 2004 due to an increase in repairs and maintenance expense of the banking facility. INCOME TAX EXPENSE. The provision for income taxes increased to $182,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 from $172,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004. The increase in the provision for income taxes is primarily due to an increase in income before income taxes of $29,000 to $466,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005, as compared to $437,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004. -13- LINCOLN PARK BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARY MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS --------------------------------------------- MANAGEMENT OF MARKET RISK GENERAL. The majority of our assets and liabilities are monetary in nature. Consequently, our most significant form of market risk is interest rate risk. Our assets, consisting primarily of mortgage loans, have longer maturities than our liabilities, consisting primarily of deposits. As a result, a principal part of our business strategy is to manage interest rate risk and reduce the exposure of our net interest income to changes in market interest rates. Our full board of directors is responsible for evaluating the interest rate risk inherent in our assets and liabilities, for determining the level of risk that is appropriate, given our business strategy, operating environment, capital, liquidity and performance objectives, and for managing this risk consistent with the guidelines approved by the board of directors. Senior management monitors the level of interest rate risk and reports to the board of directors on a regular basis with respect to our asset/liability policies and interest rate risk position. We have emphasized the origination of fixed-rate mortgage loans for retention in our portfolio in order to maximize our net interest income. We accept increased exposure to interest rate fluctuations as a result of our investment in such loans. In a period of rising interest rates, our net interest rate spread and net interest income may be negatively affected. However, this negative impact is expected to be mitigated somewhat by the net proceeds from the stock offering completed in December 2004 which will support the future growth of our interest-earning assets. In addition, we have sought to manage and mitigate our exposure to interest rate risks in the following ways: o We maintain moderate levels of short-term liquid assets. At June 30, 2005, our short-term liquid assets totaled $2.9 million; o We originate for portfolio adjustable-rate mortgage loans and adjustable home equity lines of credit. At June 30, 2005, our adjustable-rate mortgage loans totaled $13.2 million and our adjustable home equity lines of credit totaled $6.7 million; o We attempt to increase the maturity of our liabilities as market conditions allow. In particular, since 2004, we have emphasized intermediate- to long-term FHLB advances as a source of funds. At June 30, 2005, we had $9.9 million of FHLB advances with terms to maturity of between three and ten years; and o We invest in securities with step-up rate features providing for increased interest rates prior to maturity according to a pre-determined schedule and formula. However, these step-up rates may not keep pace with rising interest rates in the event of a rapidly rising rate environment. In addition, these investments may be called at the option of the issuer. NET PORTFOLIO VALUE. The Company utilizes an outside vendor to prepare the computation of accounts by which the net present value of the Bank's cash flow from assets, liabilities and off balance sheet items (the Bank's net portfolio value or "NPV") would change in the event of a range of assumed changes in market interest rates. The vendor provides the Company with an interest rate sensitivity report of net portfolio value by utilizing a simulation model that uses a discounted cash flow analysis and an option-based pricing approach to measuring the interest rate sensitivity of net portfolio value. The model estimates the economic value of each type of assets, liability and off-balance sheet contract under the assumption that the yield curve increases or decreases instantaneously by 200 basis points. A basis point equals one-hundredth of one percent, and 100 basis points equals one percent. An increase in interest rates from 3% to 5% would mean, for example, a 200 basis point increase in the change of interest rates. -14- LINCOLN PARK BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARY MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS --------------------------------------------- MANAGEMENT OF MARKET RISK (CONT'D.) The following table sets forth the Bank's NPV as of March 31, 2005, the most recent date the Bank's NPV was calculated. CHANGE IN NET PORTFOLIO VALUE NET PORTFOLIO VALUE AS A --------------------- ------------------------------------------------- PERCENTAGE OF PRESENT VALUE OF INTEREST RATES ASSETS --------------------- ------------------------------------ (BASIS POINTS) ESTIMATED AMOUNT OF PERCENT OF NPV CHANGE IN BASIS NPV CHANGE CHANGE RATIO POINTS --------------- --------------- --------------- --------------- ------------------- (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) +200 $ 6,456 $ (2,714) (29.6)% 8.38% (265) basis points 0 9,170 -- -- 11.03 -- basis points -200 9,635 465 5.1 11.21 18 basis points The table above indicates that at March 31, 2005, in the event of a 200 basis point decrease in interest rates, we would experience a 5.1% increase in net portfolio value. In the event of a 200 basis point increase in interest rates, we would experience a 29.6% decrease in net portfolio value. Certain shortcomings are inherent in the methodology used in the above interest rate risk measurement. Modeling changes in net portfolio value require making certain assumptions that may or may not reflect the manner in which actual yields and costs respond to changes in market interest rates. In this regard, the net portfolio value table presented assumes that the composition of our interest-sensitive assets and liabilities existing at the beginning of a period remains constant over the period being measured and assumes that a particular change in interest rates is reflected uniformly across the yield curve regardless of the duration or repricing of specific assets and liabilities. Accordingly, although the net portfolio value table provides an indication of our interest rate risk exposure at a particular point in time, such measurements are not intended to and do not provide a precise forecast of the effect of changes in market interest rates on its net interest income and will differ from actual results. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Bank is required to maintain levels of liquid assets sufficient to ensure the Bank's safe and sound operation. Liquidity is the ability to meet current and future financial obligations of a short-term nature. The Bank adjusts its liquidity levels in order to meet funding needs for deposit outflows, payment of real estate taxes from escrow accounts on mortgage loans, repayment of borrowings, when applicable, and loan funding commitments. The Bank also adjusts its liquidity level as appropriate to meet its asset/liability objectives. The Bank's primary sources of funds are deposits, amortization and prepayments of loans and mortgage-backed securities principal, FHLB advances, maturities of investment securities and funds provided from operations. While scheduled loan and mortgage-backed securities amortization and maturing investment securities are a relatively predictable source of funds, deposit flow and loan and mortgage-backed securities prepayments are greatly influenced by market interest rates, economic conditions and competition. The Bank's liquidity, represented by cash and cash equivalents, is a product of its operating, investing and financing activities. -15- LINCOLN PARK BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARY MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS --------------------------------------------- LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (CONT'D.) The primary sources of investing activity are lending and the purchase of mortgage-backed securities. Net loans amounted to $61.5 million and $57.2 million at June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively. Securities available for sale totaled $3.2 million and $4.3 million at June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively. Securities held to maturity totaled $19.1 million and $17.0 million at June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively. In addition to funding new loan production and securities purchases through operating and financing activities, such activities were funded by principal repayments on existing loans, mortgage-backed securities, and borrowings from FHLB. Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of business management. Excess liquidity is generally invested in short-term investments, such as federal funds and interest-bearing deposits. If the Bank requires funds beyond its ability to generate them internally, borrowing agreements exist with the FHLB which provide an additional source of funds. At June 30, 2005, advances from the FHLB amounted to $20.0 million. The Bank anticipates that it will have sufficient funds available to meet its current loan commitments. At June 30, 2005, the Bank has outstanding commitments to originate loans of $2.2 million. Certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in one year or less at June 30, 2005, totaled $16.8 million. Management believes that, based upon its experience and the Bank's deposit flow history, a significant portion of such deposits will remain with the Bank. The following table sets forth the Bank's capital position at June 30, 2005, as compared to the minimum regulatory capital requirements: To Be Well Capitalized Under Prompt Minimum Capital Corrective Actual Requirements Actions Provisions --------------------------- -------------------------- -------------------------- Amount Ratio Amount Ratio Amount Ratio ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ Total Capital (to risk-weighted assets) $ 9,412 20.14% $ 3,738 8.00% $ 4,672 10.00% Tier 1 Capital (to risk-weighted assets) 9,238 19.77% - - 2,803 6.00% Core (Tier 1) Capital (to average total assets) 9,238 10.84% 3,410 4.00% 4,263 5.00% Tangible Capital (to adjusted average assets) 9,238 10.89% 1,279 1.50% - - -16- LINCOLN PARK BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARY CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES ------------------------------------- ITEM 3.
