BRITTON & KOONTZ CAPITAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2012

Note A.  Basis of Presentation

The consolidated balance sheet for Britton & Koontz Capital Corporation (the "Company") as of December 31, 2011, has been derived from the audited financial statements of the Company for the year then ended.  The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2012, are unaudited and reflect all normal recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and operating results as of and for the periods presented.  Certain 2011 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2012 presentation.

Note B.  Interest Rate Risk Management

On August 10, 2007, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Britton & Koontz Bank, N.A. (the “Bank”), entered into a 5 year, no-call 2-year Structured Repurchase Agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“Chase”) for $20 million.  Effective July 20, 2010, the Company extended the term of this agreement for an additional three years.  The new agreement entered into is a 5 year, no-call 3-year Structured Repurchase Agreement with interest payments made quarterly on the 20 th day of January, April, July and October, continuing up to and including the maturity date.  Chase, in its discretion, may terminate the agreement on July 20, 2013, by notice to the Company two business days prior to such date.  In exchange for the extension of the term, Chase lowered the interest rate to be paid from the original 4.82% to a fixed interest rate of 3.69%.  There is no interest rate cap embedded in the modified agreement.

On November 13, 2007, the Company entered into a 5 year, no-call 3-year Structured Repurchase Agreement with Chase for an additional $20 million.  Terms of the transaction call for the Bank to pay a fixed interest rate of 4.71%, which is no longer subject to adjustment.  Chase, in its discretion, may terminate this agreement on the 13 th of each February, May, August and November.

Under each of the above-described repurchase agreements, the Bank is required to maintain a margin percentage of 105% on the subject securities.  These agreements with Chase were entered into as a means of adding additional leverage and to lock in a fixed rate for a certain period of time.

The unrealized losses in the Company’s investment portfolio, caused by interest rate increases, are not credit issues and are deemed to be temporary.  Cash flows from the mortgage-backed securities are guaranteed by the full faith and credit of the United States or by an agency of the United States government.  The Company also has the ability to hold these securities until maturity; the Company does not have the intent to sell, and more likely than not will not be required to sell, these securities prior to maturity.  Thus, the Company is not required to record any loss on the securities. However, asset/liability strategies may occasionally result in the Company adjusting the available-for-sale portfolio duration by selling securities in the portfolio.  There were no sales during the 1 st quarter of 2012.

Note D.  Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses

Management segregates the loan portfolio into portfolio segments.  Under applicable accounting rules, a loan portfolio segment is determined based on the level at which a bank develops and documents a systematic method for determining its allowance for loan losses.  The Bank’s portfolio segments are based on loan types and the underlying risk factors present in each loan type.  Such risk factors are periodically reviewed by management and revised as deemed appropriate.  The following tables set forth, as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the balance of both the allowance for loan losses and all “financing receivables” (that is, the principal amount of all loans plus accrued and unpaid interest as of the applicable measurement date) by portfolio segment, which is then further segregated by amounts evaluated for impairment collectively and individually.  The allowance for loan losses allocated to each portfolio segment is not necessarily indicative of future losses in any particular portfolio segment and does not restrict the use of the allowance to absorb losses in other portfolio segments.

Management divides the loan portfolio segments into classes, which are based on the initial measurement of the loan, risk characteristics of the loan and the method for monitoring and assessing the credit risk of the loan.

As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, loan balances outstanding more than 90 days and still accruing interest amounted to $0 and $199 thousand, respectively.  As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, non-accrual loans were $5.7 million and $8.2 million, respectively.  In addition to non-accrual loans, the Bank considers all loans more than 90 days past due and troubled debt restructurings (“TDR’s”) as non-performing loans.

Note E.  Loans Held-for-Sale

The Company originates loans that will be sold in the secondary market and other loans that it plans to hold to maturity.  Loans to be held in the portfolio are classified as held-to-maturity at origination based on the Company’s intent and ability to hold until maturity.  These loans are reported at their outstanding balance.  Loans held-for-sale are designated as such at origination and locked in with an approved investor by obtaining a forward commitment to purchase the loan, usually not to exceed 30 days from closing.  Management has a clear intent to sell the loan based on the commitment it has obtained from the investor.  These loans are carried at the lower of cost or market value.

Loans held-for-sale primarily consist of fifteen and thirty year fixed rate, one to four family real estate loans which are valued at the lower of cost or market value, as determined by outstanding commitments from investors or current investor yield requirements, calculated on an individual basis.  These loans are sold to protect earnings and equity from undesirable shifts in interest rates.  Unrealized losses on loans held-for-sale, if any, are charged against income in the period of decline.  Such declines are recorded in a valuation allowance account and deducted from the cost basis of the loans.  Gains and fees on loans held-for-sale are recognized when realized and amounted to $222 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2012.  The Company held $5.0 million of loans held-for-sale at March 31, 2012.

Loans in the portfolio, indicated as held-to-maturity, have been analyzed in the past and compiled as to the individual characteristics of each loan.  If at any time a decision is made to sell any loan in the portfolio, such loan is reclassified as held-for-sale and carried at the lower of cost or market value.

Note F.  Junior Subordinated Debentures

On March 26, 2003, the Company finalized its participation in FTN Financial Capital Market’s and Keefe, Bruyette & Woods’ pooled trust preferred offering.  The Company established Britton & Koontz Statutory Trust # 1 which issued 5,000 capital securities and 155 common securities with an aggregate liquidation amount of $5 million and $155 thousand, respectively.  The term of the capital securities and debentures is 30 years, callable after 5 years at the option of the Company.  The initial interest rate was 4.41%, adjusting quarterly at 3-Month LIBOR plus 3.15% and capped at 11.75%.  The interest rate at March 31, 2012, was 3.62%.  The securities are currently callable at the discretion of the Company on a quarterly basis.

Note G.  Loan Commitments

In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into standby letters of credit and commitments to extend credit to its customers.  Letters of credit at March 31, 2012, and December 31, 2011, were $4.7 million and $4.1 million, respectively.  As of March 31, 2012, the Company had entered into commercial and residential loan commitments with certain customers that had an aggregate unused balance of $31.7 million, compared to $34.9 million at December 31, 2011.  Because letters of credit and loan commitments often are not used in their entirety, if at all, before they expire, the balances on such commitments should not be used to project actual future liquidity requirements.  However, the Company does incorporate expectations about the level of draws under all credit-related commitments into its funds management process.

Note H.  Earnings per Share

Basic income per share amounts are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.  The computation of diluted income per share assumes the exercise of all outstanding securities potentially convertible into common stock, including options granted, unless the effect is anti-dilutive.  The effect will be anti-dilutive when the exercise price per share of an option exceeds the current market price for a share of Company stock.  The Company accounts for its options under the recognition and measurement of fair value provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 718, “Compensation—Stock Compensation.”  The Company uses the Black-Scholes method for valuing stock options.  The following information sets forth the computation of earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011.

Note I.  Fair Value

Fair Value Disclosures

The fair value of a financial instrument is the current amount that would be exchanged between willing parties, other than in a forced liquidation.  Fair value is based on the assumptions market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability.  A fair value hierarchy has been established that prioritizes the inputs used to develop those assumptions and measure fair value.  The hierarchy requires companies to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.  The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

 
·
Level 1 - Includes the most reliable sources, and includes quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 
·
Level 2 - Includes observable inputs.  Observable inputs include inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (for example, interest rates and yield curves at commonly quoted intervals, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks, and default rates) as well as inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market-corroborated inputs).

 
·
Level 3 - Includes unobservable inputs and should be used only when observable inputs are unavailable.

Since the assumptions used in measuring fair value significantly affect fair value measurements, the fair value estimates may not be realized in an immediate settlement of the instrument.  In addition, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, certain financial instruments and all non-financial instruments are excluded from these disclosure requirements.  Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented may not necessarily represent the underlying fair value of the Company.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value:

Cash and Short-Term Investments - For short-term instruments, including federal funds sold, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Securities - Fair value of securities is based on quoted market prices.  If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities.  Investment securities also include equity securities that are not traded in an active market.  The fair value of these securities equals their carrying value.

Loans - The fair value for loans is estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, with interest rates currently being offered for simi­lar loans to borrowers with similar credit ratings.  Loans with similar classifications are aggregated for purposes of the calculations.  The allowance for loan losses, which was used to measure the credit risk, is subtracted from the fair value of the loans.

Cash Surrender Value of Life Insurance – The fair value approximates its carrying value which is based on cash surrender values indicated by insurance companies.
 
 
25


Deposits - The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts, and certain money market deposits is the amount payable at the reporting date.  The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, with interest rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

Borrowings - The fair value of Federal Home Loan Bank advances is estimated using the rates currently offered for advances of similar maturities.

Securities Sold Under Repurchase Agreements – The fair value approximates their carrying value.

Junior Subordinated Debt – Due to short-term variable repricing, the fair value approximates its carrying value.

Commitments to Extend Credit and Standby Letters of Credit - The fair values of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit do not differ significantly from the commitment amount and are therefore omitted from this disclosure.

The estimated approximate fair values of the Company’s financial in­struments as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 are as follows:

Nonrecurring Basis

The Company has segregated all financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis into the most appropriate level within the fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used to determine fair value at the measurement dates in the table below.  As of such measurement dates, the Company did not record any liabilities at fair value for which measurement of the fair value was made on a non-recurring basis.

The fair value of impaired loans is measured at the fair value of the collateral for collateral-dependent loans.   Impaired loans are Level 2 assets measured using recent appraisals from external parties of the collateral less any prior liens.  Repossessed assets are initially recorded at fair value less estimated costs to sell.  The fair value of repossessed assets is based on property appraisals and an analysis of similar properties available.  As such, the Company records repossessed assets as Level 2.

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

This discussion is intended to present a review of the major factors affecting the financial condition of Britton & Koontz Capital Corporation (the “Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Britton & Koontz Bank, N.A. (the “Bank”), as of March 31, 2012, as compared to the Company’s financial condition as of December 31, 2011, and the results of operations of the Company for the three-month period ended March 31, 2012, as compared to the corresponding period in 2011.

Summary

Net income and earnings per diluted share for the three months ended March 31, 2012, was $243 thousand and $.11 per diluted share, respectively, compared to $575 thousand and $.27 per diluted share for the quarter ended March 31, 2011.  The decrease in earnings in the 1 st quarter of 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011 is due primarily to three factors.  Net interest income declined from $3.1 million to $2.4 million quarter over quarter.  Offsetting this decrease, the Company’s provision for loan losses in the 1 st quarter of 2011 was $750 thousand compared to $0 during the 1 st quarter of 2012.  Finally, the Company sold investment securities in the 1 st quarter of 2011 for a gain of $667 thousand, while it did not sell any investment securities in the 1 st quarter of 2012.

Assets decreased $9.6 million from December 31, 2011 to $356.5 million at March 31, 2012 due primarily to lower investment securities and loans offset by an increase of $3.2 million in Federal Reserve cash balances.  At March 31, 2012, investment securities of $111.8 million were down $7.2 million from December 31, 2011 while loans declined $8.4 million to $174.4 million over the same period which reflects lower loan demand in all Company markets.  The decrease in loans also reflects the transfer of a $3.5 million credit from non-accrual to other real estate which increased from $3.7 million at December 31, 2011, to $7.2 million at March 31, 2012.  Total deposits decreased $10.0 million to $253.0 million at March 31, 2012 from $263.1 million at December 31, 2011, while total borrowings remained relatively the same at $57.6 million.  Total stockholders’ equity increased $442 thousand to $39.3 million at March 31, 2012, from $38.8 million at December 31, 2011.
 
The Company did not provide any expense for possible loan losses for the three month period ending March 31, 2012, due mainly to the level of the allowance for loan loss and reduced 1 st quarter net charge-offs.  Net charge-offs decreased to $78 thousand during the 1 st quarter of 2012 compared to $98 thousand during the 1 st quarter of 2011 and $1.8 million during the 4 th quarter of 2011.  Total non-performing assets ended the 1 st quarter of 2012 at $12.9 million compared to $12.7 million at December 31, 2011.
 
While non-performing assets appear to have stabilized, management remains cautious and is still uncertain as to whether the Company’s local markets have stabilized.  Therefore, unexpected asset quality issues may still arise.  Management continues its efforts to identify and resolve problem credits as quickly as possible.

Finally, as described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 21, 2012, as a result of the Report of Examination of the Bank as of July 6, 2011 by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the “OCC”), on February 21, 2012, the Board of Directors of the Bank entered into the Formal Agreement with the OCC (the “Formal Agreement”).  In addition, the OCC established higher individual minimum capital ratios (the “IMCRs”) for the Bank, effective as of February 21, 2012.  Please refer to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K (particularly, Item 1, Business, thereof) for more specific information regarding the Formal Agreement and the IMCRs.  It remains unclear at this time what effects, if any, the restrictions imposed on the Bank under the Formal Agreement or the elevated capital requirements necessary to comply with the IMCRs will have on the Company’s and the Bank’s financial condition and results of operations.

Financial Condition

Loans
 
Total loans decreased $8.4 million to $174.4 million at March 31, 2012, from $182.8 million at December 31, 2011, due to lower commercial real estate activity and transfers of loans to other real estate.  Further declines are expected to occur in the Company’s commercial and residential real estate portfolio through the remainder of 2012, as repaid loans are not replaced with new lending.  The depressed economic conditions affecting the United States generally have weakened demand in all Company markets.  The Company’s decision to expand its mortgage operations by hiring new loan originators in 2009 has resulted in increased originations and sales of 1-4 family residential loans in the secondary market.  The Company sold approximately $12 million of 1-4 family residential loans during the 1 st quarter of 2012 and $42 million during the year 2011.  The Company’s decision to primarily sell its loans in the secondary market, coupled with the lack of market demand, has contributed to the decline in total loans.  The Company has begun programs that will allow it to hold in the portfolio some high credit quality short to mid-term residential loans.  The following table presents the Company’s loan portfolio composition at March 31, 2012, and December 31, 2011.

The Company’s loan portfolio at March 31, 2012, had no significant concentrations of loans other than in the categories presented in the table above.

Investment Securities

The Company’s investment portfolio at March 31, 2012, consisted of mortgage-backed, agency and municipal securities.  Investment securities that are classified as held-to-maturity (“HTM”) are accounted for by the amortized cost method while securities in the available-for-sale (“AFS”) category are accounted for at fair value.  Changes in value of the AFS securities are recorded in the equity section of the balance sheet in “accumulated other comprehensive income.”
 
Management determines the classification of its securities at acquisition.  Total HTM and AFS investment securities decreased $7.2 million to $110.2 million at March 31, 2012 from $117.4 million at December 31, 2011.  The decrease is due to the normal monthly pay downs and the retention of such pay downs as cash rather than the reinvestment of such cash into investment securities.  Equity securities remained relatively the same at $1.6 million.   At March 31, 2012, equity securities were comprised primarily of Federal Reserve Bank stock of $522 thousand, Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) stock of $813 thousand, ECD Investments, LLC membership interests of $100 thousand and the Company’s $155 thousand investment in B&K Statutory Trust.

Bank Premises

There have been no material changes in the Company’s premises since December 31, 2011.

Asset Quality

Management continually monitors the diversification of the loan portfolio and assesses loan quality.  When the assessment of an individual loan relationship indicates that the borrower has a defined weakness in the ability to repay and collection of all outstanding principal and/or interest is in doubt, the debt is placed on non-accrual.  By placing loans on non-accrual, the Company recognizes a problem credit, foregoes interest that is likely uncollectible, and adjusts the carried loan balance to reflect the collection amount expected.  When problem credits are transferred to non-accrual status, the accrual of interest income is discontinued and all previously accrued and uncollected interest for the year is reversed against interest income.  A non-accrual loan may be restored to accrual status when it is no longer delinquent and management no longer doubts the collectability of interest and principal.

The OCC’s Report of Examination highlighted certain deficiencies in the Company’s policies and procedures for monitoring the loan portfolio and assessing asset quality.  Among other things, the OCC found that: (1) cash flow analysis to determine a borrower’s ability to repay was not performed consistently, (2) the Company did not perform necessary post-funding analysis on large or complex credits, and (3) credit and collateral exceptions were too high, with insufficient processes to reduce these exceptions.  In the Formal Agreement, the Bank committed to addressing these and other deficiencies noted in the Report of Examination.  In management’s opinion, the Bank has made measurable progress in rectifying the issues noted in the Report of Examination, and management will continue to work with the OCC to meet its obligations under the Formal Agreement.

Several key measures are used to evaluate and monitor the Company’s asset quality.  These measures include the levels and percentages of total nonperforming assets, loan delinquencies, non-accrual loans, foreclosed assets and charge-offs.  Nonperforming assets, including non-accrual loans of $5.7 million and other real estate of $7.2 million, increased $217 thousand to $12.9 million at March 31, 2012, from $12.7 million at December 31, 2011.  Nonperforming loans as a percent of total loans, net of unearned income and loans held-for-sale (“LHFS”), decreased to 3.31% at March 31, 2012, compared to 4.88% at December 31, 2011.  Net charge-offs during the 1 st quarter of 2012 decreased to $78 thousand compared to $1.8 million during the 4 th quarter of 2011 and $98 thousand during the 1 st quarter of 2011.  The Company moved one non-performing multi-family in the amount of $3.5 million to other real estate in the 1 st quarter of 2012.

A breakdown of nonperforming assets at March 31, 2012, and December 31, 2011, is shown below.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is available to absorb probable credit losses inherent in the entire loan portfolio. The appropriate level of the allowance is based on an ongoing analysis of the loan portfolio and represents an amount that management deems adequate to provide for inherent losses.  The balance of the loans determined to be impaired under Accounting Standards Codification Topic 310, “Receivables,” and the related allowance is included in management’s estimation and analysis of the allowance for loan losses. The determination of the appropriate level of the allowance is sensitive to a variety of internal factors, primarily historical loss ratios and assigned risk ratings, and external factors, primarily the economic environment. Additionally, the estimate of the allowance required to absorb credit losses in the entire portfolio may change due to shifts in the mix and level of loan balances outstanding and in prevailing economic conditions, as evidenced by changes in real estate demand and values, interest rates, unemployment rates and energy costs. While no one factor is dominant, each could cause actual loan losses to differ materially from originally estimated amounts.

For portfolio balances of consumer, consumer mortgage and certain other similar loan types, allowance factors are determined based on historical loss ratios by portfolio and may be adjusted by other qualitative criteria. For larger commercial and commercial real estate secured loans, risk-rating grades are assigned by lending, credit administration or loan review personnel, based on an analysis of the financial and collateral strength and other credit attributes underlying each loan. The allowance factors are established based on historical loss ratios experienced by the Company for these loan types, as well as the credit quality criteria underlying each grade, adjusted for trends and expectations about losses inherent in our existing portfolios. In making these adjustments to the allowance factors, management takes into consideration factors which it believes are causing, or are likely in the future to cause, losses within our loan portfolio but which may not be fully reflected in our historical loss ratios.

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal and interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis for problem loans by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.  For real estate collateral, the fair market value of the collateral is based upon a recent appraisal by a qualified and licensed appraiser of the underlying collateral.

Based upon this evaluation, management believes the allowance for loan losses of $4.2 million at March 31, 2012, which represents 2.42% of gross loans less unearned interest and LHFS, is adequate, under prevailing economic conditions, to absorb probable losses on existing loans based on information currently available to management.  At December 31, 2011, the allowance for loan loss was $4.3 million, or 2.33% of gross loans less unearned interest and LHFS.  The allowance at March 31, 2012, includes a specific allocation of approximately $1.3 million on total impaired loans of $5.7 million.

The process by which management determines the appropriate level of the allowance, and the corresponding provision for probable credit losses, involves considerable judgment; therefore, no assurance can be given that future losses will not vary from current estimates.

Provision for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses is a charge to earnings to maintain the allowance for loan losses at a level consistent with management’s assessment of the risk of loss in the loan portfolio in light of current risk management strategies, economic conditions and market trends.  The Company did not allocate a provision expense during the 1 st quarter of 2012 compared to $750 thousand for the 1 st quarter of 2011 primarily due to lower net charge-offs during the 1 st quarter of 2012 and the current level of the allowance account.

The Company regularly reviews the allowance account in an effort to maintain it at an adequate level and collects necessary data to make a proper provision expense to earnings.  Based on its current calculation and analysis, no provision was deemed necessary.  However, factors may come to light during the remainder of 2012 that may influence management to change its provision.  The following table details the allowance activity for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011:

Potential Problem Loans

At March 31, 2012, the Company had no loans, other than those balances incorporated in the above tables, which management had significant doubts as to the ability of the borrower to comply with current repayment terms.   

Deposits
 
Total deposits decreased $10.0 million from $263.0 million at December 31, 2011, to $253.0 million at March 31, 2012.  The decrease is due primarily to the loss of public funds deposits which are considered non-core.
The composition of the Company’s deposits is described in the following table.

Total Deposits
  $ 253,036,570     $ 263,057,544  

Borrowings

Total Company borrowings, including FHLB advances, federal funds purchased customer and structured repurchase agreements and junior subordinated debentures, remained relatively the same at $57.6 million at March 31, 2012.    The Company includes in these borrowings balances that the Company has pursuant to agreements with local depositors to sweep overnight funds from their commercial deposit accounts.  Because of the nature of the agreements, these sweep accounts are included as borrowings rather than local customer deposits; these amounts are classified as repurchase agreements and included under the “Securities sold under repurchase agreements” line item on the Company’s balance sheet.  Management believes these accounts perform more like a core deposit rather than a bank obligation.
 
 
33

 
Capital

Stockholders' equity totaled $39.3 million at March 31, 2012, compared to $38.8 million at December 31, 2011.  The increase in equity is primarily related to earnings of $243 thousand coupled with a $180 thousand change in unrealized losses in the AFS investment portfolio.

The Company and Bank maintained a total capital to risk weighted assets ratio of 20.97% and 19.97%, respectively, a Tier 1 capital to risk weighted assets ratio of 19.71% and 18.71%, respectively, and a leverage ratio of 12.07% and 11.56%, respectively, at March 31, 2012.  These levels substantially exceed the minimum quantitative requirements of bank regulatory agencies for well-capitalized institutions of 10.00%, 6.00% and 5.00%, respectively.  Components of comprehensive income are excluded from the calculation of capital ratios.  However, there are also qualitative factors established under federal regulation that can affect a depositary institution’s capitalization status notwithstanding its actual capital amounts and ratios.  As noted earlier, under the IMCRs imposed by the OCC, the Bank is now required to maintain a total risk-based capital to risk-weighted assets ratio of 12.00% and a Tier I capital to adjusted total assets ratio of 8.00%.  The elevated IMCR ratios are not expected to contribute negatively to the Company’s well capitalized status.  The ratio of shareholders' equity to assets increased to 11.02% at March 31, 2012, compared to 10.61% at December 31, 2011, due primarily to the decrease in total assets.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

There have been no material changes in the Company’s off-balance sheet arrangements during the three months ended March 31, 2012.  See Note B and Note G to the Company’s consolidated financial statements for a description of the Company’s off-balance sheet arrangements.

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin

One of the largest components of the Company’s earnings is net interest income, which is the difference between the interest and fees earned on loans and investments and the interest paid for deposits and borrowed funds.  The net interest margin is net interest income expressed as a percentage of average earning assets.

Net interest income ended March 31, 2012, at $2.4 million compared to $3.1 million at March 31, 2011. This decline was due primarily to lower average earning assets, offset by lower funding costs of interest bearing liabilities.  Contributing to the lower average earning assets was a $28 million decrease in average loans coupled with a $21 million decline in average investment securities offset by increases in average interest bearing cash balances of $22 million.  In addition to the lower volumes, the shift from loans and investments to cash contributed heavily to the decline in net interest income.  Interest rate spread fell by 50 basis points as yields on earning assets declined 84 basis points while costs on funding liabilities declined only 34 basis points.  Net interest margin declined from 3.44% at March 31, 2011, to 2.90% at March 31, 2012.  As interest rates remain low and mortgage refinancing remain elevated, net interest income will continue to be compressed.  However, net interest income is expected to improve as $20 million of the Company’s Structured Repurchase Agreements mature in November 2012.

Non-Interest Income/ Non-Interest Expense

Non-interest income ended March 31, 2012, at $729 thousand compared to $1.5 million at March 31, 2011.  The decrease is due primarily to the sale of approximately $11 million of mortgage-backed securities in the 1 st quarter of 2011 generating gains of $667 thousand.  Additionally, mortgage revenue declined $126 thousand during the compared periods.  Contributing to the decline is the large amount of mortgage sales that were completed in the 1 st quarter of 2011 of $16.4 million as opposed to completed sales in the 1 st quarter of 2012 of $7.6 million.  Non-interest expense decreased $251 thousand to $2.9 million at March 31, 2012, compared to $3.1 million at March 31, 2011.  The decrease is primarily due to lower personnel costs associated with the decrease in full time equivalents from 109 to 102, offset by an increase in other real estate expense of $14 thousand.

Income Taxes

The Company recorded an income tax benefit of $517 for the three months ended March 31, 2012, compared to income tax expense of $148 thousand for the same period in 2011.  The tax benefit during 2012 was related to the Company’s lower core earnings and the tax exempt municipal securities portfolio.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company utilizes a funds management process to assist management in maintaining net interest income during times of rising or falling interest rates and in maintaining sufficient liquidity.  Principal sources of liquidity for the Company are asset cash flows, customer deposits and the ability to borrow against investment securities and loans.  Secondary sources of liquidity include the sale of investment and loan assets.   All components of liquidity are reviewed and analyzed on a monthly basis.

The Company has established a liquidity contingency plan to guide the Bank in the event of a liquidity crisis.  The plan describes the normal operating environment, prioritizes funding options and outlines management responsibilities and board notification procedures.  As more emphasis has been directed to liquidity needs, the Company has enhanced its contingency plan to include stress levels, heightened reporting and monitoring along with testing to better understand and report its liquidity position and needs.  In addition, under the Formal Agreement, the Bank is required to adopt a capital plan.  Please refer to Part II, Item 2, “Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds,” for a discussion of the items the capital plan is intended to address.

The Company’s cash and cash equivalents increased $3.2 million to $51.8 million at March 31, 2012, from $48.6 million at December 31, 2011.  Cash was used in operating and financing activities during the 1 st quarter of 2012 in the amounts of $1.0 million and $9.9 million, respectively while investing activities provided $14.1 million.

At March 31, 2012, in its liquidity contingency planning, the Company did not rely on any of its existing unsecured federal funds lines with correspondent banks.  The Company maintains the ability to draw on its available line of credit with the FHLB in the amount of approximately $66 million.  In addition to these lines of credit, the Bank had approximately $70 million in liquid assets including unencumbered investment securities available for collateralized borrowing of $28 million, and cash available at the Federal Reserve Bank of $42 million.   Enhancing these liquidity levels, the Company has the ability to add $36 million from the brokered CD market.  Management believes that overall liquidity measures, as outlined above, indicate that the Company has adequate resources to fund foreseeable asset growth or to meet unanticipated deposit fluctuations or other immediate cash needs.

Certain restrictions exist on the ability of the Bank to transfer funds to the Company in the form of dividends and loans.  These restrictions are described in detail in Part II, Item 2, “Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds” and incorporated by reference herein.  These restrictions have not had, and are not expected to have, a material impact on the Company’s ability to meet its anticipated cash obligations.

Item 3. 
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

No disclosure is required hereunder as the Company is a “smaller reporting company,” as defined in Item 10(f) (1) of Regulation S-K.
 
Item 4.
Controls and Procedures
 
The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company (“CEO”) and the Chief Financial Officer of the Company (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of March 31, 2010.  Based on this evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective for ensuring that information that the Company is required to disclose in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.
 
There has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
 
PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION
 
Item 2.  Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
 
Pursuant to Mississippi law, the Company’s Board of Directors may authorize the Company to pay cash dividends to its shareholders.  The only limitation on dividends under Mississippi law is that no distribution may be made if, after giving effect to the distribution, (1) the Company would not be able to pay its debts as they come due in the usual course of business, or (2) the Company’s total assets would be less than the sum of its total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed, if the Company were to be dissolved at the time of the distribution, to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of any shareholders whose preferential rights are superior to those receiving the distribution.

The principal source of the Company’s cash revenues are dividends from the Bank.  Federal banking regulations place certain restrictions on dividends paid and loans or advances made by the Bank to the Company.  Under federal law, the directors of a national bank, after making proper deduction for all expenses and other deductions required by the OCC, may credit net profits to the bank’s undivided profits account, and may declare a dividend from that account of so much of the net profits as they judge expedient.  The OCC and the Federal Reserve Board have each indicated that banking organizations should generally pay dividends only out of current operating earnings.  The Bank’s ability to pay dividends is also limited by prudence, statutory and regulatory guidelines, and a variety of other factors.

In addition to these general restrictions, the Bank’s ability to pay a dividend is subject to additional restrictions imposed on the Bank pursuant to the Formal Agreement.  The Formal Agreement requires the Bank to adopt, with the OCC’s prior approval, a capital plan by May 21, 2012, which must address, among other things, the Bank’s plans for the maintenance of adequate capital, projections for growth and capital requirements and projections for the sources and timing of additional capital to satisfy the Bank’s capital needs.  Management of the Bank is currently in the process of preparing the capital plan for the review and approval by the Bank’s newly-formed Compliance Committee and the full Board of Directors.  After receiving the approval of both the Compliance Committee and the full Board of Directors, the Bank will submit the capital plan to the OCC for approval.  Although management does not currently foresee any impediment to the Bank’s adopting the capital plan within the required timeframe, the capital plan must be approved by the OCC; the Bank cannot provide any assurances as to the date by which the OCC will approve the capital plan.  The Bank may only pay a dividend if it is in compliance, and would remain in compliance after payment of the dividend, with this capital plan.  Additionally, the Bank must obtain prior written non-objection from the Assistant Deputy Comptroller of the OCC before the Bank can declare a dividend.

Certain restrictions also exist on the ability of the Bank to transfer funds to the Company in the form of loans.  Federal Reserve regulations limit the amount the Bank may loan to the Company unless such loans are collateralized by specific obligations.  At March 31, 2012, the maximum amount available for transfer from the Bank to the Company in the form of loans on a secured basis was $1.9 million.  There were no loans outstanding from the Bank to the Company at March 31, 2012.
