Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
 
1.         Basis of Presentation
 
The financial information included herein presents the consolidated financial condition and results of operations for Auburn Bancorp, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Auburn Savings Bank, FSB, as of September 30, 2010 and June 30, 2010, and for the interim periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009.  Except for the June 30, 2010 Consolidated Balance Sheet, the financial information is unaudited; however, in the opinion of management, the information reflects all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, that are necessary to make the financial statements not misleading for a fair presentation. The results shown for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for a full fiscal year. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial reporting. Accordingly they do not include all of the information and footnotes required for complete financial statements. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2010 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K (File No. 000-53370) filed at the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 28, 2010.
 
In preparing financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses and valuation of foreclosed real estate. In connection with the determination of these estimates, management obtains independent appraisals for significant properties.
 
2.         Reorganization
 
On January 11, 2008, Auburn Savings Bank, FSB (the “Bank”) reorganized into the mutual holding company structure. As part of the reorganization, the Bank converted to a federal stock savings bank and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Auburn Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”), and the Company became a majority-owned subsidiary of Auburn Mutual Holding Company (the “MHC”). In addition, the Company conducted a stock offering.  Immediately following completion of the reorganization and stock offering, the MHC owned 55.0% of the outstanding common stock of the Company and the minority public shareholders owned 45.0%.  So long as the MHC is in existence, the MHC will be required to own at least a majority of the voting stock of the Company.
 
Net proceeds of $1.5 million were raised in the stock offering, after deduction of expenses of $766,000 and excluding $25,000 used to capitalize the MHC and $173,000 which was loaned by the Company to a trust for the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the “ESOP”), enabling the ESOP to purchase 17,262 shares of common stock in the stock offering, equal to 3.43% of the shares of common stock sold in the stock offering, for the benefit of the Bank’s employees.
 
The Company may not declare or pay a cash dividend on, or repurchase any of its common stock, if the effect thereof would cause the regulatory capital of the Bank to be reduced below the amount required under OTS rules and regulations.
 
Auburn Bancorp, Inc.’s common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol “ABBB.”

3.         Impact of Recent Accounting Standards
                 
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued amended guidance with respect to accounting for transfers of financial assets to improve the reporting for the transfer of financial assets resulting from concerns of financial statement users that many of the financial assets (and related obligations) that have been derecognized should continue to be reported in the financial statements of transferors. This Statement was effective for the Company on July 1, 2010.  The Company has reviewed the requirements of this Statement and complies with its requirements.  The adoption of this Statement has not had a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
 
In January 2010, the FASB issued guidance to amend the disclosure requirements related to recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. The guidance requires new disclosures on the transfers of assets and liabilities between Level 1 (quoted prices in active market for identical assets or liabilities) and Level 2 (significant other observable inputs) of the fair value measurement hierarchy, including the reasons and the timing of the transfers. Additionally, the guidance requires a roll forward of activities on purchases, sales, issuance, and settlements of the assets and liabilities measured using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 fair value measurements). The guidance is   effective for the Company with the reporting period beginning July 1, 2010, except for the disclosure on the roll forward activities for any Level 3 fair value measurements, which will become effective for the Company with the reporting period beginning July 1, 2011. Other than requiring additional disclosures, adoption of this new guidance will not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
 
In February 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2010-09, Subsequent Events: Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements , related to events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued. This guidance amends existing standards to address potential conflicts with SEC guidance and refines the scope of the reissuance disclosure requirements to include revised financial statements only. Under this guidance, SEC filers are no longer required to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. The adoption of this update did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
 
In July 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-20, Receivables (Topic 310) : Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses . This ASU is intended to provide additional information to assist financial statement users in assessing an entity’s credit risk exposures and evaluating the adequacy of its allowance for credit losses. The guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2010. Other than requiring additional disclosures, adoption of this new guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluation. Consideration is given to (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and (3) the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.
 
At September 30, 2010, one debt security with unrealized loss had depreciated 5% in total from the amortized cost basis. This unrealized loss related principally to current interest rates for similar types of securities compared to the underlying yields on these securities. At June 30, 2010, three debt securities with unrealized losses had depreciated 2% in total from the amortized cost basis. These unrealized losses related principally to current interest rates for similar types of securities compared to the underlying yields on these securities.  In analyzing an issuer’s financial condition, management considers whether the securities are issued by the federal government or its agencies, whether downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred, and the results of reviews of the issuer’s financial condition and the Company’s ability to hold such securities. The Company did not record an other-than-temporary impairment loss during the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009.
 
5.         Earnings Per Share
 
Basic income or loss per common share is determined by dividing net income or loss by the adjusted weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The adjusted outstanding common shares equals the gross number of common shares issued less unallocated shares of the ESOP. Net loss per common share for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 is based on the following:
 
      Three Months Ended

6.        Comprehensive Income or Loss
 
GAAP requires that recognized revenue, expenses, gains, and losses be included in net income or loss.  Although certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities, are reported as a separate component of the equity section of the balance sheet, such items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income or loss.
 
The components of total comprehensive loss and related tax effects for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 are as follows:

7.         Employee Stock Ownership Plan
 
Shares of the Company’s common stock purchased by the ESOP are held in a suspense account until released for allocation to participants.  Shares released are allocated to each eligible participant based on the ratio of each such participant’s compensation, as defined in the ESOP, to the total compensation of all eligible plan participants.  As the unearned shares are released from suspense, the Company recognizes compensation expense equal to the fair value of the ESOP shares committed to be released during the period.  To the extent that the fair value of the ESOP shares differs from the cost of such shares, the difference is charged or credited to equity as additional paid-in capital. Expense related to the ESOP for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 approximated $2,000 and $4,000, respectively.  The fair value of the unallocated shares as of September 30, 2010 and 2009 was $141,600 and $153,100, respectively.

8.      Fair Value Measurement
 
GAAP defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
 
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) or identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.
 
Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, and other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
 
Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.
 
The balances of financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows:

GAAP requires disclosure of estimated fair values of all financial instruments where it is practicable to estimate such values. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. Accordingly, the derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, could not be realized in immediate settlement of the instrument. The disclosure requirements exclude certain financial instruments and all nonfinancial instruments. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented do not represent the underlying value of the Company.
 
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating fair value disclosures for financial instruments:
 
Cash and cash equivalents and certificates of deposit: The carrying amounts of cash, due from banks, deposits with the FHLB, federal funds sold and certificates of deposit approximate fair values as these financial instruments have short maturities.
 
Securities: The fair value of securities available for sale, excluding Federal Home Loan Bank stock, are determined by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges or matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique used widely in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities, but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities.  The carrying value of Federal Home Loan Bank stock approximates fair value based on the redemption provisions of the FHLB.
 
Loans receivable: For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values. Fair values for other loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. Fair values for nonperforming loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses or underlying collateral values, where applicable.
 
 
13

 
 
Deposit liabilities: The fair values disclosed for demand deposits (e.g., interest and non-interest checking, savings, and certain types of money market accounts) are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts). Fair values for certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates of similar remaining maturity.
 
Federal Home Loan Bank advances: The fair values of these borrowings are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on the Company’s current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.
 
Accrued interest: The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate fair value.
 
Off-balance-sheet instruments: The Company’s off-balance-sheet instruments consist of loan commitments. Fair values for loan commitments have not been presented as the future revenue derived from such financial instruments is not significant.
 
The estimated fair values, and related carrying or notional amounts, of the Company’s financial instruments are as follows:

9.       Subsequent Events
 
Subsequent events represent events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued. Financial statements are considered “issued” when they are widely distributed to stockholders and others for general use and reliance in a form and format that complies with GAAP.
 
Specifically, there are two types of subsequent events:
 
Those comprising events or transactions providing additional evidence about conditions that existed at the balance sheet date, including estimates inherent in the financial statement preparation process (referred to as recognized subsequent events).
 
 ●
Those comprising events that provide evidence about conditions not existing at the balance sheet date but, rather, that arose after such date (referred to as non-recognized subsequent events).
 
Subsequent events have been evaluated and management determined there were no subsequent events to disclose.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                   
Overview
 
     Our principal business is to acquire deposits from individuals and businesses in the communities surrounding our offices and to use these deposits to fund loans. We focus on providing our products and services to two segments of customers: individuals and businesses.
 
            Income . Our primary source of income is net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between interest income, which is the income that we earn on our loans and investments, and interest expense, which is the interest that we pay on our deposits and borrowings. Changes in levels of interest rates affect our net interest income. A secondary source of income is non-interest income, which includes revenue that we receive from providing products and services. The majority of our non-interest income generally comes from loan servicing fees and service charges on deposit accounts, as well as gains on sales of loans.
 
            Allowance for Loan Losses . The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. We evaluate the need to establish allowances against losses on loans on a regular basis. When additional allowances are necessary, a provision for loan losses is charged to earnings.
 
   Expenses. The non-interest expenses we incur in operating our business consist of expenses for salaries and employee benefits, occupancy and equipment, data processing, marketing and advertising, professional services, FDIC insurance premiums and various other miscellaneous expenses. Our largest non-interest expense is salaries and employee benefits, which consist primarily of salaries and wages paid to our employees, payroll taxes, and expenses for health insurance, retirement plans and other employee benefits. We will recognize additional annual employee compensation expenses stemming from the adoption of a new equity benefit plan. We cannot determine the actual amount of these new stock-related compensation and benefit expenses at this time because applicable accounting practices require that they be based on the fair market value of the shares of common stock at specific points in the future.
 
Forward-Looking Statements
 
           Certain statements herein constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. They often include words like “believe”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “estimate”, and “intend” or future or conditional verbs such as “will”, “would”, “should”, “could”, or “may.”  These forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs and expectations of management, as well as the assumptions made using information currently available to management. Since these statements reflect the views of management concerning future events, these statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. As a result, actual results may differ from those contemplated by these forward-looking statements as a result of any number of factors.  These factors include, but are not limited to, risks related to the Company’s continued ability to originate quality loans, fluctuation in interest rates, real estate conditions in the Company’s lending areas, changes in the securities or financial markets, changes in loan delinquency and charge-off rates, general and local economic conditions, the Company’s continued ability to attract and retain deposits, the Company’s ability to control costs, new accounting pronouncements, and changing regulatory requirements.  For more information about these factors, please see our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on September 28, 2010.  These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements, which speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The Company does not undertake and specifically disclaims any obligation to publicly release updates or revisions to any such forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Critical Accounting Policies
 
           We consider accounting policies that require management to exercise significant judgment or discretion, or make significant assumptions that have or could have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets or on income, to be critical accounting policies. We consider the following to be our critical accounting policies.
 
            Allowance for loan losses.   The allowance for loan losses is established as losses are estimated to have occurred through a provision for loan losses charged to earnings. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectability of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.  The allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a regular basis by management and is based on management’s periodic review of the collectability 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 the 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 allowance consists of specific and general components.  The specific component relates to loans that are classified as impaired, whereby an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows, collateral value or observable market price of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan.  The general component relates to pools of non-impaired loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for qualitative factors.
 
            A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that we will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Management considers factors including payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due when determining impairment. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed.  Impairment is measured on a loan by loan basis for commercial loans by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s obtainable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.  Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, we do not separately identify individual consumer and residential loans for impairment disclosures.   The allowance for loan losses includes specific reserve amounts assigned to individual loans on the basis of loan impairment. Certain loans are evaluated individually and are judged to be impaired when management believes it is probable that not all of the contractual interest and principal payments will be collected as scheduled in the loan agreement.  Under this method, loans are selected for evaluation based on internal risk ratings or non-accrual status. A specific reserve is allocated to an individual loan when that loan has been deemed impaired and when the amount of a probable loss is estimable on the basis of its collateral value, the present value of anticipated future cash flows, or its net realizable value. As of September 30, 2010, three impaired loans were assigned a specific reserve of $86,000.  Specific reserves totaling $11,000 have been assigned as of June 30, 2010.
 
    Management believes that, based on information currently available, the allowance for loan losses is sufficient to cover losses inherent in our loan portfolio at this time.  However, no assurances can be given that the level of the allowance will be sufficient to cover loan losses or that future adjustments to the allowance will not be necessary if economic and/or other conditions differ substantially from the economic and other conditions considered by management in evaluating the appropriate level of the allowance.
 
    Actual loan losses may be significantly more than the allowance we have established, which could have a material negative effect on our financial results.
 
 
16

 
 
    Securities.   We classify our investments as available for sale. These assets are recorded at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported in other comprehensive income or loss.  Purchase premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the terms of the securities. Declines in the fair value of individual equity securities that are deemed to be other than temporary are reflected in earnings when identified. For individual debt securities where the Bank does not intend to sell the security and it is not more likely than not that the Bank will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, the other-than-temporary decline in the fair value of the debt security related to 1) credit loss is recognized in earnings and 2) other factors is recognized in other comprehensive income or loss. Credit loss is deemed to exist if the present value of expected future cash flows using the effective rate at date of acquisition is less than the amortized cost basis of the debt security. For individual debt securities where the Bank intends to sell the security or more likely than not will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost, the other-than-temporary impairment is recognized in earnings equal to the entire difference between the security’s cost basis and its fair value at the balance sheet date.  Gains and losses on the sale of securities are recorded on the trade date and are determined using the specific identification method.
 
            Loans.   Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or pay-off generally are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balances adjusted for charge-offs, the allowance for loan losses, and any deferred fees or costs on originated loans. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized over the contractual life of the loans as an adjustment of the related loan yield using the interest method.
 
           Loans past due 30 days or more are considered delinquent. The accrual of interest on mortgage and commercial loans is discontinued at the time the loan is 90 days delinquent unless the credit is well secured and in process of collection.  Consumer loans are typically charged off when they are no more than 180 days past due. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual or charged-off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful.
 
           All interest accrued but not collected for loans that are placed on nonaccrual or charged off is reversed against interest income. Cash payments on these loans are applied to principal balances until qualifying for return to accrual. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.
 
Comparison of Financial Condition at September 30, 2010 and June 30, 2010
 
            Total Assets. Total assets increased by $841,000, or 1.0%, from $80.6 million at June 30, 2010 to $81.4 million at September 30, 2010. This increase was largely the result of an increase of $2.3 million in the loan portfolio, partly offset by a reduction of $2.1 million in interest-earning deposits.
 
    Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash and correspondent bank balances decreased by $2.1 million, or 40.7%, from $5.3 million at June 30, 2010 to $3.1 million at September 30, 2010.  This decrease was primarily the result of increase in loans.
   
    Certificates of Deposit.   Certificate of deposit balances had no change with a total of $845,000 at September 30, 2010 and June 30, 2010.
   
    Securities Available for Sale. Securities available for sale totaled $1.8 million at September 30, 2010, an increase of $707,000, or 63.5%, from $1.1 million at June 30, 2010. The increase was primarily due to the purchase of two corporate bonds and one municipal bond.

    Net Loans.   Net loans increased $2.1 million, or 3.1%, from $68.9 million at June 30, 2010 to $71.0 million at September 30, 2010. The majority of loan growth has been in 1-4 family real estate loans and commercial real estate loans which increased $809,000, or 2.2% and $1.7 million, or 11.2%, respectively.   The increases were primarily due to the market demand for fixed rate consumer and commercial real estate.   Construction loans decreased $155,000, or 37.8%, home equity loans decreased $39,000, or 0.3%, and consumer installment loans increased $84,000, or 8.8%, from June 30, 2010 to September 30, 2010.
 
    Deposits and Borrowed Funds. Deposits decreased $478,000, or 0.9%, from $55.8 million at June 30, 2010 to $55.3 million at September 30, 2010. Demand accounts increased $335,000, or 10.8%.  NOW checking accounts decreased $36,000, or 1.2%, and certificates of deposit decreased $96,000, or 0.3%.  Money market accounts decreased $915,000, or 6.6% and savings accounts increased $233,000 or 5.9%.  The decrease in money market accounts resulted from a large withdrawal upon the death of a customer with a substantial deposit relationship.
 
           Total borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston (“FHLB”) increased $1.5 million, or 7.9%, from $18.4 million at June 30, 2010 to $19.9 million at September 30, 2010.
 
           Total Stockholders’ Equity. Total equity decreased $500 during the three months ended September 30, 2010 , primarily as a result of net loss of $17,000 offset by an increase in unrealized gain on investment securities, net of tax, of $15,000.
 
Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2010 and September 30, 2009
 
            Net Loss. Net loss decreased $45,000 to $17,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2010 compared to net loss of $62,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The decrease was primarily the result of higher net interest income and non-interest income, partially offset by higher provision for loan losses.
 
    Net Interest Income.   Net interest income increased $148,000, or 26.8%, from $553,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2009 to $702,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2010.  The increase was primarily due to the increase in interest and dividend income of $70,000 and decrease in interest expense of $79,000.  The interest rate spread increased from 2.87% for the three months ended September 30, 2009 to 3.57% for the three months ended September 30, 2010.  Net interest margin increased from 3.08% for the three months ended September 30, 2009 to 3.71% for the three months ended September 30, 2010.
 
    Interest and Dividend Income. Interest income increased $70,000, or 6.9%, from $1.01 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009 to $1.08 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010.  This increase was due principally to an increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets, partly offset by a decrease in yield.  Interest income increased by $102,000 on loans and decreased $32,000 on investment securities and other interest-earning deposits, including Federal Home Loan Bank stock.  The average yield on the loan portfolio decreased from 6.08% for the three months ended September 30, 2009 to 6.06% for the three months ended September 30, 2010 in the generally lower interest rate environment. The average yield on investments, including securities, FHLB stock and interest-bearing deposits decreased from 2.26% for the three months ended September 30, 2009 to 1.12% for the three months ended September 30, 2010.
 
    Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased by $79,000, or 17.1%, to $380,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2010 from $459,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2009.  The decrease was due to lower cost of funds.  While average deposit balances increased, the average cost of these deposits decreased from 2.35% to 1.79% in the generally lower market interest rate environment. Average borrowings from FHLB decreased with the average cost of the borrowings decreasing from 3.68% to 3.16%.

The following table presents the dollar amount of changes in interest income and interest expense for the major categories of our interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Information is provided for each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities with respect to (i) changes attributable to changes in volume (i.e., changes in average balances multiplied by the prior-period average rate) and (ii) changes attributable to rate (i.e., changes in average rate multiplied by prior-period average balances). Changes due to the interaction between volume and rate were allocated pro rata between volume and rate.

Provision for Loan Losses. The Company’s provision for loan losses was $279,000 and $18,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  The increase to the provision for loan losses was the result of an increase in specific reserves of $42,000 and an increase in general valuation reserve of $237,000 due largely to the current economic conditions, including declining real estate values and loan performance challenges across all segments of the loan portfolio. The Bank has completed a comprehensive review of the loan portfolio and related allowance for loan losses, and has increased its allowance for loan losses to $719,000 at September 30, 2010 which now represents 1.00% of total loans, compared to an allowance of $492,000, representing 0.71% of total loans at June 30, 2010.  Our analysis of the adequacy of the allowance considers economic conditions, historical losses and management’s estimate of losses inherent in the portfolio. For further discussion of our current methodology, please refer to “ Critical Accounting Policies—Allowance for Loan Losses.”
 
Non-interest Income (Loss). Total non-interest income increased $164,000, or 151.3%, to $56,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2010, from a loss of $109,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2009. This increase was the result of having no loss on sale of investment securities at September 30, 2010 compared to $159,000 loss for the three months ended September 30, 2009.
 
Non-interest Expenses.   Non-interest expenses decreased $15,000, or 2.9%, to $503,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2010, compared to $518,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The decrease was primarily the result of a decrease of $39,000 in FDIC insurance premiums, and $3,000 in computer charges, offset by increases of $9,000 in advertising expenses.  Salaries and benefits and other operating expenses also increased commensurate with the growth of the Company.

Income Taxes. Income tax expense increased by $22,000, to a tax benefit of $7,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2010, reflecting an effective tax rate of 29.3%, compared to a tax benefit of $30,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2009, reflecting an effective tax rate of 32.4%.
 
Average Daily Balance Sheet .   The following table sets forth average balance sheets, average yields and costs, and certain other information for the periods indicated.  All average balances are daily average balances.  The yields set forth below include the effect of deferred fees, and discounts and premiums that are amortized or accreted to interest income or expense.  We do not accrue interest on loans in non-accrual status, however, the balance of these loans is included in the total average balance, which has the effect of lowering average loan yields.

Liquidity
 
   Liquidity is the ability to meet current and future financial obligations of a short-term nature. Our primary sources of funds consist of deposit inflows, loan repayments, loan sales and maturities of investment securities. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and securities are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and mortgage and mortgage-backed security prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition.
 
               We regularly adjust our investments in liquid assets based upon our assessment of (1) expected loan demand, (2) expected deposit flows, (3) yields available on interest-earning deposits and securities and (4) the objectives of our asset/liability management program. Excess liquid assets are invested generally in interest-earning deposits and federal funds sold. Our most liquid assets are cash and cash equivalents and interest-earning deposits. The levels of these assets are dependent on our operating, financing, lending and investing activities during any given period. At September 30, 2010, cash and cash equivalents totaled $3.1 million, including interest-earning deposits of $1.6 million. Securities classified as available-for-sale, which provide additional sources of liquidity, totaled $1.8  million September 30, 2010, and certificates of deposit at other banks totaled $845,000. At September 30, 2010, we had $19.9 million of outstanding borrowings from FHLB, and the ability to borrow an additional $3.7 million.  The Company is also enrolled in the CDARS “buy” program which provides an alternative source of liquidity.

               At September 30, 2010, the Company had $305,000 in loan commitments outstanding and $5.0 million in unused lines of credit, letters of credit and unadvanced portions of construction loans.

               Certificates of deposit due to mature within one year of September 30, 2010 totaled $21.9 million, or 39.5% of total deposits. If these deposits do not remain with us, we will be required to seek other sources of funds, including other certificates of deposit and lines of credit. We believe, however, based on past experience, that a significant portion of our certificates of deposit will remain with us.

               Our primary investing activities are the origination of loans and the purchase of securities. Our primary financing activity consists of activity in deposit accounts. However, we may from time to time utilize borrowings to fund a portion of our operations where the cost of such borrowings is more favorable than that of deposits of a similar duration. Deposit flows are affected by the overall level of interest rates, the interest rates and products offered by us and our local competitors and other factors. We generally manage the pricing of our deposits to be competitive and to increase core deposits. Occasionally, we offer promotional rates to attract certain deposit products.

  Other than those discussed above, we are not aware of any known trends, events or uncertainties that will have or are reasonably likely to have a material effect on our liquidity, capital or operations, nor are we aware of any current recommendations by regulatory authorities, which if implemented, would have a material effect on liquidity, capital or operations.

Capital Resources

   The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements, including a risk-based capital measure. The risk-based capital guidelines include both a definition of capital and a framework for calculating risk-weighted assets by assigning balance sheet assets and off-balance sheet items to broad risk categories. At September 30, 2010, the Bank exceeded all of our regulatory capital requirements. The Bank is considered “well-capitalized” under regulatory guidelines .

   Actual capital amounts and ratios for the Company approximate those of the Bank.
 
   The capital from the recent stock offering increased the Bank’s liquidity and capital resources. The initial level of liquidity is being reduced as net proceeds from the stock offering are used for general corporate purposes, including the funding of loan originations and repaying a portion of our borrowings. Due to the increase in equity resulting from the capital raised in the stock offering, return on equity has been adversely affected as a result of the reorganization.
