EXPLANATORY NOTE
First Federal of Northern Michigan Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") is filing
Amendment No. 1 to our Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB for the quarter ended
September 30, 2007, originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the "SEC") on November 14, 2007 (the "Original Filing"), to restate our
consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2007 and for the nine
months ended September 30, 2007. Because of the restatement, the interim
financial statements contained in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB at and for
the period ended September 30, 2007 should no longer be relied upon. The
restatement corrects an error in accounting relating to the Company's adoption
in April 2007 of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, "The Fair
Value Option for Financial Assets and Liabilities" ("SFAS No. 159").
The Company determined in April 2007 to implement early adoption of SFAS 159 and
elected the fair value option for approximately $4.9 million in certain U.S.
Government sponsored agency securities with lower coupons in our
available-for-sale portfolio. We also elected the fair value option for
approximately $10.0 million in FHLB advances with above-market rates. These
elections resulted in one-time after-tax charges to retained earnings of
$302,000. In addition, in the quarter ended September 30, 2007, the Company
recorded net loss on trading activities of $282,000 related to fair value
accounting on the FHLB advances.
Based on subsequent discussions with the SEC staff, however, and after
consultation with our independent accountants, the Company has now determined to
reverse the adoption of SFAS 159. The Audit Committee of our Board of Directors
has thoroughly reviewed this matter and, on March 19, 2008, approved
management's conclusions with respect to the restatement.
The following tables summarize the effect of the restatement adjustments on the
consolidated financial statements as of and for the nine months ended September
30, 2007:

("ICA"). FSMC invests in real estate that includes leasing, selling, developing,
and maintaining real estate properties. ICA is a licensed insurance agency
engaged in the business of property, casualty and health insurance. All
significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the
consolidation.
These interim financial statements are prepared without audit and reflect
all adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present
fairly the consolidated financial position of the Company at September 30, 2007,
and its results of operations and statement of cash flows for the periods
presented. All such adjustments are normal and recurring in nature. The
accompanying consolidated financial statements do not purport to contain all the
necessary financial disclosures required by generally accepted accounting
principles that might otherwise be necessary and should be read in conjunction
with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of the Company
included in the Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2006. Results for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31,
2007.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Our accounting and reporting policies are prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and
conform to general practices within the banking industry. We consider accounting
policies that require significant judgment 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. Changes in underlying factors,
assumptions or estimates could have a material impact on our future financial
condition and results of operations. Based on the size of the item or
significance of the estimate, the following accounting policies are considered
critical to our financial results.
Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses is calculated with
the objective of maintaining an allowance sufficient to absorb estimated
probable loan losses. Management's determination of the adequacy of the
allowance is based on periodic evaluations of the loan portfolio and other
relevant factors. However, this evaluation is inherently subjective, as it
requires an estimate of the loss content for each risk rating and for each
impaired loan, an estimate of the amounts and timing of expected future cash
flows, and an estimate of the value of collateral.
We have established a systematic method of periodically reviewing the
credit quality of the loan portfolio in order to establish an allowance for
losses on loans. The allowance for losses on loans is based on our current
judgments about the credit quality of individual loans and segments of the loan
portfolio. The allowance for losses on loans is established through a provision
for loan losses based on our evaluation of the losses inherent in the loan
portfolio, and considers all known internal and external factors that affect
loan collectibility as of the reporting date. Our evaluation, which includes a
review of all loans on which full collectibility may not be reasonably assured,
considers among other matters, the estimated net realizable value or the fair
value of the underlying collateral, economic conditions, historical loan loss
experience, our knowledge of inherent losses in the portfolio that are probable
and reasonably estimable and other factors that warrant recognition in providing
an appropriate loan loss allowance. Management believes this is a critical
accounting policy because this evaluation involves a high degree of complexity
and requires us to make subjective judgments that often require assumptions or
9
estimates about various matters. Historically, we believe our estimates and
assumptions have proven to be relatively accurate.
The analysis of the allowance for loan losses has two components: specific
and general allocations. 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. The
general allocation is determined by segregating the remaining loans by type of
loan, risk weighting (if applicable) and payment history. We also analyze
delinquency trends, which have remained stable, 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.
The principal assumption used in deriving the allowance for loan losses is the
estimate of loss content for each risk rating. As an example, if recent loss
experience dictated that the projected loss ratios would be changed by 10% (of
the estimate) across all risk ratings, the allocated allowance as of September
30, 2007 would have changed by approximately $213,000. Actual loan losses may be
significantly more than the allowances we have established, which could have a
material negative effect on our financial results.
Mortgage Servicing Rights. We sell to investors a portion of our originated
one- to four-family residential real estate mortgage loans. When we acquire
mortgage servicing rights through the origination and sale of mortgage loans
with servicing rights retained, we allocate a portion of the total cost of the
mortgage loans to the mortgage servicing rights based on their relative fair
value. As of September 30, 2007, we were servicing loans sold to others totaling
$132.1 million. We amortize capitalized mortgage servicing rights as a reduction
of servicing fee income in proportion to, and over the period of, estimated net
servicing income by use of a method that approximates the level-yield method. We
periodically evaluate capitalized mortgage servicing rights for impairment using
a model that takes into account several variables including expected prepayment
speeds and prevailing interest rates. If we identify impairment, we charge the
amount of the impairment to earnings by establishing a valuation allowance
against the capitalized mortgage servicing rights asset. The primary risk of
material changes to the value of the servicing rights resides in the potential
volatility in the economic assumptions used, particularly the prepayment speed.
We monitor this risk and adjust the valuation allowance as necessary to
adequately record any probable impairment in the portfolio. Management believes
the estimation of these variables makes this a critical accounting policy. For
purposes of measuring impairment, the mortgage servicing rights are stratified
based on financial asset type and interest rates. In addition, we obtain an
independent third-party valuation of the mortgage servicing portfolio on a
quarterly basis. In general, the value of mortgage servicing rights increases as
interest rates rise and decreases as interest rates fall. This is because the
estimated life and estimated income from a loan increase as interest rates rise
and decrease as interest rates fall. The key economic assumptions made in
determining the fair value of the mortgage servicing rights at September 30,
2007 included the following:
Annual constant prepayment speed (CPR): 11.48%
Weighted average life remaining (in months): 243
Discount rate used: 9.00%
At the September 30, 2007 valuation, we calculated the value of our
mortgage servicing rights to be $1.3 million and the weighted average life
remaining of those rights was 46 months. The book value of our mortgage
servicing rights as of September 30, 2007 was $513,000 which was $764,000 less
than the independent valuation, so there was no need to establish a valuation
allowance.
Impairment of Intangible Assets. Goodwill arising from business
acquisitions represents the value attributable to unidentifiable intangible
elements in the business acquired. The fair value of goodwill is dependent upon
many factors, including our ability to provide quality, cost-effective services
in the face of competition. Because of these many factors, management believes
this is a critical accounting policy. A decline in earnings as a result of
business or market conditions or a run-off of insurance customers over sustained
periods could lead to an impairment of goodwill that could adversely affect
earnings in future periods.
A significant portion of our intangible assets, including goodwill, relates
to the acquisition
10
premiums recorded with the purchase of the InsuranCenter of Alpena ("ICA") and
certain branches over the last several years. Intangible assets are reviewed
periodically for impairment by comparing the fair value of the intangible asset
to the book value of the intangible asset. If the book value is in excess of the
fair value, impairment is indicated and the intangibles must be written down to
their fair value.
In connection with our acquisition in 2003 of ICA, we allocated the excess
of the purchase price paid over the fair value of net assets acquired to
intangible assets, including goodwill. These intangible assets included the ICA
customer list and a third-party contract to which ICA is a party. From the date
of acquisition through April 30, 2005 we amortized the value assigned to the
customer list and contract over a period of 20 years. On May 1, 2005 the former
owner of ICA retired. As a result, the amortization period for these intangible
assets was reduced to a 10 year period beginning May 1, 2005. Effective January
1, 2006, the exclusive third-party contract between ICA and Blue Cross Blue
Shield of Michigan was terminated. Prior to January 1, 2006 the ICA exclusive
agent contract with Blue Cross Blue Shield entitled ICA to an override
commission of 1.9% on all health premiums written through local Chambers of
Commerce in Northeast Michigan. On any health insurance contracts in place as of
December 31, 2005, ICA will continue to receive the 1.9% commission; however,
there will be no new groups added to this program effective January 1, 2006.
Management considered the potential effect this could have on ICA health
insurance commissions in future years and made the decision to reduce the
amortization period of the third-party contract intangible asset to 5 years
effective January 1, 2006.
Goodwill is not amortized. The impairment test of goodwill and identified
intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life, performed as of September
30, 2007 and December 31, 2006 in accordance with SSFAS No. 142, did not
indicate that an impairment charge was required. If, through testing, we
determine that there is impairment based, for example, on significant runoff of
the customer list or material changes to the third-party contract, then we may
determine to reduce the recorded value of those intangible assets, which would
increase expense and reduce our earnings.
In connection with branch office acquisitions, we assigned the excess of
the purchase price over the fair value of the assets acquired to a core deposit
intangible. The core deposit intangible is tested periodically for impairment.
Our original estimates for the expected life of the deposits have proven to be
relatively accurate as evidenced by the fact that no impairment has been
recorded. If we determine through testing that a significant portion of the
acquired customers no longer do business with us, then the asset would be deemed
to be impaired thereby requiring a charge to earnings to the extent appropriate
given all of the known factors. We amortize core deposit intangibles over a
period of between 10 and 15 years.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In March 2006, FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No.
156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets - an amendment of FASB
Statement No. 140. SFAS 156 amends SFAS Statement No.140, "Accounting for
Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities",
with respect to the accounting for separately recognized servicing assets and
servicing liabilities. The Statement addresses the recognition and measurement
of separately recognized servicing assets and liabilities and provides an
approach to simplify efforts to obtain hedge-like (offset) accounting. SFAS 156
was adopted by the Company on January 1, 2007 as required by the statement. The
adoption of SFAS 156 did not have a material effect on the financial position,
results of operations, or cash flows.
In July 2006, the FASB issued SFASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for
Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an interpretation of SFASB Statement No. 109 (FIN
48), which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. This
Interpretation requires that the Company recognize in the financial statements
the impact of a tax position if that position is more likely than not to be
sustained on audit based on technical merits of the position. The provisions of
FIN 48 are effective as of the beginning of the Company's 2007 fiscal year, with
the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle recorded as an
adjustment to operating retained earnings. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a
material effect on the financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
NOTE 2--REORGANIZATION.
11
On April 1, 2005, we consummated the second-step mutual-to-stock conversion
of Alpena Bancshares, M.H.C., in which shares of common stock representing
Alpena Bancshares, M.H.C.'s ownership interest in Alpena Bancshares, Inc. were
sold to investors. As a result of the conversion and stock offering, Alpena
Bancshares, M.H.C. ceased to exist and Alpena Bancshares, Inc. was succeeded by
First Federal of Northern Michigan Bancorp, Inc., a Maryland corporation and new
holding company for First Federal of Northern Michigan.
The plan of conversion and reorganization of Alpena Bancshares, M.H.C. and
the issuance and contribution of cash and common stock to First Federal
Community Foundation, a charitable foundation established by the Company, were
approved by the stockholders of Alpena Bancshares, Inc. and the members of
Alpena Bancshares, M.H.C. on March 23, 2005.
First Federal of Northern Michigan Bancorp, Inc. accepted orders to
purchase 1,699,869 shares of common stock at a purchase price of $10.00 per
share. As a part of the conversion, public stockholders of the Company as of the
consummation date received 1.8477 shares of First Federal of Northern Michigan
Bancorp, Inc. common stock in exchange for each of their existing shares of
Company common stock. Cash was issued in lieu of any fractional shares. The
share exchange occurred on April 1, 2005.
NOTE 3--DIVIDENDS.
Payment of dividends on the common stock is subject to determination and
declaration by the Board of Directors and depends upon a number of factors,
including capital requirements, regulatory limitations on the payment of
dividends, the Company's results of operations and financial condition, tax
considerations and general economic conditions.
On September 18, 2007, the Company declared a cash dividend on its common
stock, payable on or about October 19, 2007, to shareholders of record as of
September 30, 2007, equal to $0.05 per share. The dividend on all shares
outstanding totaled $144,212.
NOTE 4--1996 STOCK OPTION PLAN, 1996 RECOGNITION AND RETENTION PLAN AND 2006
STOCK-BASED INCENTIVE PLAN.
Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standard (SSFAS) No. 123 (Revised) "Shareholder Based Payments",
which requires that the grant-date fair value of awarded stock options be
expensed over the requisite service period. The Company's 1996 Stock Option Plan
(the "1996 Plan"), which was approved by shareholders, permits the grant of
share options to its employees for up to 127,491 shares of common stock
(retroactively adjusted for the exchange ratio applied in the Company's 2005
stock offering and related second-step conversion). The Company's 2006
Stock-Based Incentive Plan (the "2006 Plan"), which was approved by the
shareholders on May 17, 2006, permits the award of up to 242,740 shares of
common stock of which the maximum number to be granted as Stock Options is
173,386 and the maximum that can be granted as Restricted Stock Awards is
69,354. Option awards are granted with an exercise price equal to the market
price of the Company's stock at the date of grant; those option awards generally
vest based on five years of continual service and have ten year contractual
terms. Certain options provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change in
control (as defined in the Plans).
During the three months ended September 30, 2007 the Company awarded 500
shares under the Recognition and Retention Plan ("RRP"). Shares issued under the
RRP and exercised pursuant to the exercise of the stock option plan may be
either authorized but unissued shares or reacquired shares held by the Company
as treasury stock.
12
STOCK OPTIONS - A summary of option activity under the Plan during the nine
months ended September 30, 2007 is presented below:
Weighted-Average
Weighted- Remaining
Average Contractual Term Aggregate
Options Shares Exercise Price (Years) Intrinsic Value
------- ------- -------------- ---------------- ---------------
Outstanding at January 1, 2007 204,532 $9.50
Granted 6,200 $8.79
Exercised 0 N/A
Forfeited or expired (9,390) $9.54
Oustanding at September 30, 2007 201,342 $9.48 8.76 $ 0
Exercisable at September 30, 2007 43,462 $9.29 7.30 -$54,762
As of September 30, 2007 there was $263,000 of total unrecognized
compensation cost, net of expected forfeitures, related to nonvested options
under the Plan. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average
period of 3.67 years. The total fair value of shares vested during the nine
months ended September 30, 2007 was $0.
RESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS - As of September 30, 2007 there was $453,000 of
unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested restricted stock awards
under the plan.
NOTE 5 - COMMITMENTS TO EXTEND CREDIT
The Company is a party to credit-related financial instruments with
off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing
needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to
extend credit, stand by letters of credit, and commercial lines of credit. Such
commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate
risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the consolidated balance sheet. The
Company's exposure to credit loss is represented by the contracted amount of
these commitments. The Company follows the same credit policies in making
commitments as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.
At September 30, 2007, the Company had outstanding commitments to originate
loans of $30.4 million. These commitments included $9.2 million for permanent
one-to-four family dwellings, $4.1 million for non-residential loans, $665,000
of undisbursed loan proceeds for construction of one-to-four family dwellings,
$8.3 million of undisbursed lines of credit on home equity loans, $589,000 of
unused credit card lines, $4.4 million of unused commercial lines of credit,
$1.3 million of undisbursed commercial construction, $5,000 of unused Letters of
Credit and $1.8 million in unused Bounce Protection.
NOTE 6 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Following a management evaluation of the Company's operations from both a
financial and customer service perspective, the Board of Directors approved the
closure of the Company's branch office in Mancelona, Michigan effective February
1, 2008. The branch accounts for about 2.6% of the Company's deposits.
Management believes that a majority of the deposits will not be retained by the
Company, and has factored this into its analysis. The Company owns and intends
to sell this branch facility. Management believes the costs to exit this market,
including any impairment on fixed and intangible assets, will not exceed
$25,000.
13
NOTE 7 - SEGMENT REPORTING
The Company's principal activities include banking through its wholly owned
subsidiary, First Federal of Northern Michigan, and the sale of insurance
products through its indirect wholly owned subsidiary, ICA, purchased in 2003.
The Bank provides financial products including retail and commercial loans as
well as retail and commercial deposits. ICA receives commissions from the sale
of various insurance products including health, life, and property. The segments
were determined based on the nature of the products provided to customers.
The financial information for each operating segment is reported on the
basis used internally to evaluate performance and allocate resources. The
allocations have been consistently applied for all periods presented. Revenues
and expenses between affiliates have been transacted at rates that unaffiliated
parties would pay. The only transaction between the segments thus far relates to
a deposit on behalf of ICA included in the Bank. The interest income and
interest expense for this transaction has been eliminated. All other
transactions are with external customers. The performance measurement of the
operating segments is based on the management structure of the Company and is
not necessarily comparable with similar information for any other financial
institution. The information presented is also not necessarily indicative of the
segment's financial condition and results of operations if they were independent
entities.

FIRST FEDERAL OF NORTHERN MICHIGAN BANCORP, INC.
AND SUBSIDIARIES
PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION
ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion compares the consolidated financial condition of the
Company at September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, and the results of
operations for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2007 and
2006. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the interim financial
statements and footnotes included herein.
OVERVIEW
For the quarter ended September 30, 2007, the Company reported a net loss
of $25,000 compared to earnings of $326,000 for the year earlier period, a
decrease of $351,000. Year to date 2007 net loss was $239,000 compared to the
first nine months of 2006 when net income was $636,000.
Total assets decreased by $18.4 million, or 6.6% from December 31, 2006 to
September 30, 2007. Investment securities available for sale decreased by $15.3
million from December 31, 2006 to September 30, 2007. Net loans receivable
decreased $2.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2007. Total
deposits decreased $10.5 million, or 5.9% from December 31, 2006 to September
30, 2007. Federal Home Loan Bank advances decreased by $6.0 million from
December 31, 2006 to September 30, 2007. Equity decreased by $1.6 million, or
4.6% from December 31, 2006 to September 30, 2007.
COMPARISON OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AT SEPTEMBER 30, 2007 AND DECEMBER 31, 2006
ASSETS: Total assets decreased $18.4 million, or 6.6%, to $262.5 million at
September 30, 2007 from $281.0 million at December 31, 2006. Investment
securities available for sale decreased $15.3 million, or 35.6%, from December
31, 2006 to September 30, 2007, due to the maturity of $8.5 million in AFS
investment securities during the nine months ended September 30, 2007, the
proceeds of which were used to pay-down high-cost FHLB advances, and due to the
sale of $4.7 million in securities. Net loans receivable decreased $2.0 million,
or 0.9%, to $207.5 million at September 30, 2007 from $209.5 million at December
31, 2006. Total mortgage loans decreased by $700,000 and total commercial loans
decreased by $1.2 million as loan originations declined due to economic
conditions in our markets.
LIABILITIES: Deposits decreased $10.5 million, or 5.9%, to $166.6 million at
September 30, 2007 from $177.1 million at December 31, 2006. The decrease was
primarily in statements savings and CD balances reflecting continued competition
for deposits and increased pressure on market deposit rates. FHLB advances
decreased $6.0 million, or 9.1%, to $60.0 million at September 30, 2007 from
$66.0 million at December 31, 2006 due to the pay-down of advances from the
maturity of AFS investment securities.
EQUITY: Stockholders' equity decreased to $33.8 million at September 30, 2007
from $35.5 million at December 31, 2006, a decline of $1.6 million. Impacting
the decrease in stockholders' equity from December 31, 2006 to September 30,
2007 was the Company's repurchase of 151,750 shares of its common stock at a
total cost of $1,398,558, in connection with its stock repurchase program which
was announced and commenced in March 2007. Dividends were $144,000 and $438,000
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively. The
unrealized loss on available for sale securities, net of tax, was $23,000 at
September 30, 2007 as compared to $264,000 at December 31, 2006, an improvement
of $241,000. The cumulative loss in value on securities was due to changes in
interest rates and was not considered by management to be other than temporary.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2007 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER
30, 2006
GENERAL: Net income decreased by $351,000 to a loss of $25,000 for the three
months ended September 30, 2007 from net income of $326,000 for the same period
ended September 30, 2006. In addition, during the quarter ended September 30,
2006 the Company collected a large non-accrual commercial loan relationship
which resulting in an additional $279,000 in interest income and $8,000 in late
fees for that quarter. The provision for loan loss for the quarter ended
September 30, 2007 was $111,000 as compared to $216,000 for the same quarter in
2006.
INTEREST INCOME: Interest income was $4.1 million for the three months ended
September 30, 2007, compared to $4.6 million for the comparable period in 2006.
The decrease in interest income quarter over quarter was due in large part to
the collection of a large commercial non-accrual loan relationship which
resulted in an additional $279,000 in interest income for the quarter ended
September 30, 2006. In addition, we experienced decreases quarter over quarter
in the average balances of every category of interest-earning assets. The
average balances of AFS investment securities decreased $14.0 million as
securities matured or were called and the proceeds were used to pay-down
higher-cost FHLB advances, rather than reinvest in lower-yielding investments
securities. The average balances of mortgage loans decreased $2.5 million period
over period and the average balances of non-mortgage loans decreased $1.4
million quarter over quarter as we continue to experience a decline in loan
originations due to economic conditions nationwide, statewide, and in our market
areas.
INTEREST EXPENSE: Interest expense was $2.1 million for the three month period
ended September 30, 2007, compared to $2.3 million for the same period in 2006.
NET INTEREST INCOME: Net interest income decreased to $2.0 million for the three
month period ended September 30, 2007 compared to $2.3 million for the same
period in 2006. For the three months ended September 30, 2007, average
interest-earning assets decreased $21.3 million, or 3.4%, to $246.5 million when
compared to the same period in 2006. Average interest-bearing liabilities
decreased $21.6 million, or 5.2%, to $216.6 million for the quarter ended
September 30, 2007 from $238.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2006.
The yield on average interest-earning assets decreased to 6.69% for the three
month period ended September 30, 2007 from 6.84% for the same period ended in
2006, due again in large part to the collection of a large commercial
non-accrual loan, and the cost of average interest-bearing liabilities increased
to 3.83% from 3.73% for the three month periods ended September 30, 2007 and
September 30, 2006, respectively. The decrease in asset yields on interest
earning assets combined with the impact of the increase in the cost of funds
created a decrease in the net interest margin of 20 basis points to 3.32% for
the three month period ended September 30, 2007 from 3.52% for same period in
2006.
PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES: The allowance for loan losses is established through
a provision for loan losses charged to earnings. Loan losses are charged against
the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is
confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.
The allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a regular basis by management and
is based upon management's periodic review of the collectibility of the loans in
light of historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio,
adverse situations that may affect the borrower's ability to repay, 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. The
provision for loan losses amounted to $111,000 for the three month period ended
September 30, 2007 and $216,000 for the comparable period in 2006. During the
quarter ended September 30, 2006, the Company had increased its reserves on
certain commercial and mortgage loans based on deterioration of those credits
during the quarter, which accounts for the higher provision in the third quarter
of 2006 as compared to 2007.
NON INTEREST INCOME: Non interest income was $1.0 million for the three month
period ended September 30, 2007, a decrease of $69,000 or 6.3% from the same
period in 2006. The primary reason for the decrease was mortgage banking
activities income which was $43,000 lower in the quarter ended September 30,
2007
18
as compared to year earlier period due to a decline in mortgage activity related
to general economic conditions.
NON INTEREST EXPENSE: Non interest expense was $3.0 million for the three month
period ended September 30, 2007, a $289,000 or 10.6%, increase from the same
period in 2006. The increase was primarily due to $171,000 in prepayment
penalties associated with early pay-off of FHLB advances and increases of
$42,000 in compensation and employee benefits, $10,000 in advertising, $31,000
in occupancy and $38,000 in professional services expenses partially offset by a
decrease of $20,000 in service bureau expenses.
INCOME TAXES: Federal income taxes decreased to a tax benefit of $48,000for the
three month period ended September 30, 2007 compared to tax expense of $163,000
for the same period in 2006. The decrease for the three month period was
attributable to a decrease in pre-tax income as well as an increase quarter over
quarter in tax-exempt income.
NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2007 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30,
2006
GENERAL: Net income decreased $876,000 to a net loss of $239,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 2007 from net income of $636,000 for the same period
ended September 30, 2006. The decrease in earnings period over period was
primarily attributable to a decline of $400,000 in non-interest income,
including $151,000 in service charges and other fees and $176,000 decline in
insurance and brokerage commissions. In addition during the nine months ended
September 30, 2006 the Company collected $279,000 (approximately $191,000 after
tax) in interest and $8,000 in late charges on a non-accrual commercial loan
relationship. The income tax expense for the nine months ended September 30,
2007 decreased by $537,000 as compared to the same period in 2006 due to the
decrease in pre-tax income period over period and the increase in tax-exempt
income period over period.
INTEREST INCOME: Interest income was $12.3 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2007, compared to $12.8 million for the comparable period in 2006.
This decrease of $517,000, or 4.0%, in interest income was due in large part to
a decrease of $15.9 million in average balances of AFS investment securities to
$37.2 million for the period ended September 30, 2007 compared to $53.1 million
for the period ended September 30, 2006. In addition, as mentioned above, during
the nine-month period ended September 30, 2006, the Company collected a large
commercial non-accrual relationship, resulting in an additional $279,000 in
commercial loan interest income for that period.
INTEREST EXPENSE: Interest expense was $6.4 million for the nine month period
ended September 30, 2007 compared to $6.2 million for the same period in 2006.
The 3.2% increase in interest expense was primarily attributable to an increased
cost of funds on certificates of deposit for the period ended September 30, 2007
compared to September 30, 2006. The cost of certificates of deposit increased
from 3.88% for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2006 to 4.51% for the
same period ended September 30, 2007, reflecting upward market pressure on
deposit rates period over period. The effect of the increase in cost of deposits
was offset by the decline in the average balances of certificates of deposit of
$11.2 million period over period as non-relationship customers took certificate
of deposit dollars to institutions paying higher deposit rates.
NET INTEREST INCOME: Net interest income decreased by $720,000 for the nine
month period ended September 30, 2007 compared to the same period in 2006. For
the nine months ended September 30, 2007, average interest-earning assets
decreased $15.6 million, or 5.8%, when compared to the same period in 2006.
Average interest-bearing liabilities decreased $14.7 million, or 6.2% for the
same period. The yield on average interest-earning assets increased to 6.55% for
the nine month period ended September 30, 2007 from 6.34% for the same period
ended in 2006. The cost of average interest-bearing liabilities increased to
3.87% from 3.52% for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2007 and
September 30, 2006, respectively. The net result of the 21 basis point increase
in asset yields and 35 basis point increase in the cost of funds was a net
interest rate margin decrease of 9 basis points to 3.14% for the nine month
period ended September 30, 2007, from 3.23% for the same period in 2006.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES: The provision for loan losses amounted to $310,000
for the nine month period ended September 30, 2007 and $419,000 for the
comparable period in 2006. The ratio of nonperforming loans to total loans was
2.18% at September 30, 2007 and 1.90% at December 31, 2006. As a percent of
total assets, nonperforming loans increased to 2.15% at September 30, 2007 from
1.59% at December 31, 2006. Total nonperforming assets increased by $1.2 million
from December 31, 2006 to September 30, 2007. It should be noted that $888,000
of the $1.2 million increase in non-performing assets related to two matured
commercial loans which were in the renewal process at September 30, 2007 and
which are well collateralized. Management expects there to be no loss on either
of these loans.
NON INTEREST INCOME: Non interest income was $2.9 million for the nine month
period ended September 30, 2007, a decrease of $400,000 or 12.2%, from the same
period in 2006. The primary reasons for the decrease were decreases of $151,000
in service charges and other fees and $176,000 in insurance and brokerage
commissions period over period.
NON INTEREST EXPENSE: Non interest expense was $8.9 million for the nine month
period ended September 30, 2007 as compared to $8.5 million for the nine month
period ended September 30, 2006. The main reason for the change was $464,000 in
prepayment penalties on FHLB advances during the nine month period ended
September 30, 2007.
INCOME TAXES: Federal income tax expense decreased to a benefit of $217,000 for
the nine months ended September 30, 2007 compared to expense of $320,000 for the
same period in 2006. The decrease for the nine month period was attributable to
a decrease in pre-tax income as well as an increase period over period in
tax-exempt income.
20
LIQUIDITY
The Company's current liquidity position is more than adequate to fund expected
asset growth. The Company's primary sources of funds are deposits, FHLB
advances, proceeds from principal and interest payments, prepayments on loans
and mortgage-backed and investment securities and sale of long-term fixed-rate
mortgages into the secondary market. While maturities and scheduled amortization
of loans and mortgage-backed securities are a predictable source of funds,
deposit flows, mortgage prepayments and sale of mortgage loans into the
secondary market are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic
conditions and competition.
Liquidity represents the amount of an institution's assets that can be quickly
and easily converted into cash without significant loss. The most liquid assets
are cash, short-term U.S. Government securities, U.S. Government agency
securities and certificates of deposit. The Company is required to maintain
sufficient levels of liquidity as defined by OTS regulations. This requirement
may be varied at the direction of the OTS. Regulations currently in effect
require that the Bank must maintain sufficient liquidity to ensure its safe and
sound operation. The Company's objective for liquidity is to be above 20%.
Liquidity as of September 30, 2007 was $42.9 million, or 25.3% , compared to
$55.7 million, or 29.3%, at December 31, 2006. The levels of these assets are
dependent on the Company's operating, financing, lending and investing
activities during any given period. The liquidity calculated by the Company
includes additional borrowing capacity available with the FHLB. This borrowing
capacity is based on the FHLB stock owned by the Bank along with pledged
collateral. As of September 30, 2007, the Bank had unused borrowing capacity
totaling $24.4 million at the FHLB based on the FHLB stock ownership.
The Company intends to retain for its portfolio certain originated residential
mortgage loans (primarily adjustable rate, balloon and shorter term fixed rate
mortgage loans) and to generally sell the remainder in the secondary market. The
Bank will from time to time participate in or originate commercial real estate
loans, including real estate development loans. During the nine month period
ended September 30, 2007 the Company originated $12.9 million in residential
mortgage loans, of which $5.7 million were retained in portfolio while the
remainder were sold in the secondary market or are being held for sale. This
compares to $24.5 million in originations during the first nine months of 2006
of which $15.1 million were retained in portfolio. The Company also originated
$19.7 million of commercial loans and $7.2 million of consumer loans in the
first nine months of 2007 compared to $17.9 million of commercial loans and
$12.7 million of consumer loans for the same period in 2006. Of total loans
receivable, excluding loans held for sale, mortgage loans comprised 48.5% and
48.4%, commercial loans 37.3% and 37.6% and consumer loans 14.2% and 14.0% at
September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively.
Deposits are a primary source of funds for use in lending and for other general
business purposes. At September 30, 2007 deposits funded 63.4% of the Company's
total assets compared to 63.0% at December 31, 2006. Certificates of deposit
scheduled to mature in less than one year at September 30, 2007 totaled $78.7
million. Management believes that a significant portion of such deposits will
remain with the Bank. The Bank monitors the deposit rates offered by competition
in the area and sets rates that take into account the prevailing market
conditions along with the Bank's liquidity position. Moreover, management
believes that the growth in assets is not expected to require significant
in-flows of liquidity. As such, the Bank does not expect to be a market leader
in rates paid for liabilities.
Borrowings may be used to compensate for seasonal or other reductions in normal
sources of funds or for deposit outflows at more than projected levels.
Borrowings may also be used on a longer-term basis to support increased lending
or investment activities. At September 30, 2007 the Company had $59.0 million in
FHLB advances. FHLB borrowings as a percentage of total assets were 22.5% at
September 30, 2007 as compared to 23.1% at December 31, 2006. The Company has
sufficient available collateral to obtain additional advances of $7.7 million.
When this is combined with current FHLB stock ownership the Company could obtain
up to an additional $32.1 million in advances from the FHLB.
21
CAPITAL RESOURCES
Stockholders' equity at September 30, 2007 was $33.9 million, or 12.9% of total
assets, compared to $35.5 million, or 12.6% of total assets, at December 31,
2006 (See "Consolidated Statement of Changes in Stockholders' Equity"). The Bank
is subject to certain capital-to-assets levels in accordance with OTS
regulations. The Bank exceeded all regulatory capital requirements at September
30, 2007. The following table summarizes the Bank's actual capital with the
regulatory capital requirements and with requirements to be "Well Capitalized"
