Selected Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statement (unaudited)

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial information is unaudited and has been prepared from the consolidated financial statements of Sound Financial Bancorp, Inc. (“we,” “us,” “our,” “Sound Financial Bancorp,” or the “Company”) and its wholly owned subsidiary, Sound Community Bank (the “Bank”).  These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented have been included.  Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.  These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, as filed with the SEC.  The results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.  For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes for the year ended December 31, 2011, included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Certain amounts in the prior quarters’ financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.  These classifications do not have an impact on previously reported net income, retained earnings or earnings per share.

On August 22, 2012, the Company completed its conversion from the mutual holding company structure and related public stock offering, so that it is now a stock holding company that is wholly owned by public shareholders.  Please see Note 2 – Conversion and Stock Issuance for more information.

Note 2 – Conversion and Stock Issuance

The Company, a Maryland corporation, was organized by Sound Community MHC (“the MHC”), Sound Financial, Inc. and Sound Community Bank to facilitate the “second-step” conversion of Sound Community Bank from the mutual holding company structure to the stock holding company structure (the “Conversion”).  Upon consummation of the Conversion, which occurred on August 22, 2012, the Company became the holding company for Sound Community Bank and now owns all of the issued and outstanding shares of Sound Community Bank’s common stock.

In connection with the Conversion, the Company sold a total of 1,417,500 shares of common stock in offering to certain depositors of Sound Community Bank and others, including 113,400 shares to the Sound Community Bank employee stock ownership plan (“ESOP”).  All shares were sold at a purchase price of $10.00 per share.  Proceeds from the offering, net of $1.5 million in expenses, totaled $12.7 million.  The Company used $1.1 million of the proceeds to fund the ESOP and made a $7.5 million dividend to the Bank.  In addition, concurrent with the offering, shares of Sound Financial, Inc. common stock owned by public stockholders were exchanged for 0.87423 shares of the Company’s common stock, with cash being paid in lieu of issuing any fractional shares.  As a result of the offering, exchange and cash in lieu of fractional shares, the Company now has 2,587,544 shares outstanding.

All share and per share information in this report for periods prior to the Conversion has been revised to reflect the 0.87423 Conversion exchange ratio.

Note 3 – Accounting Pronouncements Recently Issued or Adopted
 
In September 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”)  issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-08, Testing Goodwill for Impairment.  With the ASU, a company testing goodwill for impairment now has the option of performing a qualitative assessment before calculating the fair value of the reporting unit (the first step of goodwill impairment test).  If, on the basis of qualitative factors, the fair value of the reporting unit is more likely than not greater than the carrying amount, a quantitative calculation would not be needed.  Additionally, new examples of events and circumstances that an entity should consider in performing its qualitative assessment about whether to proceed to the first step of the goodwill impairment have been made to the guidance and replace the previous guidance for triggering events for interim impairment assessment.  The amendments are effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011.  The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
 

 
In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-11, Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities.  The ASU requires an entity to offset, and present as a single net amount, a recognized eligible asset and a recognized eligible liability when it has an unconditional and legally enforceable right of setoff and intends either to settle the asset and liability on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.  The ASU requires an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position.  The amendments are effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013.  The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the ASU but does not expect it will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
 

 
In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-12, Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update 2011-05 (“ASU 2011-12”). This ASU defers only those changes in ASU 2011-05 that relate to the presentation of reclassification adjustments. ASU 2011-12 was issued in order to allow the FASB time to redeliberate whether to present on the face of the financial statements the effects of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the components of net income and other comprehensive income for all periods presented. While the FASB is considering the operational concerns about the presentation requirements for reclassification adjustments and the needs of financial statement users for additional information about reclassification adjustments, the Company will continue to report reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income consistent with the presentation requirements in effect before the issuance of ASU 2011-05. ASU 2011-12 was effective for the Company’s financial statements for annual and interim periods beginning after December 31, 2011, and was applied prospectively. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU No. 2012-02, Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment.  With the ASU, a company testing indefinite-lived intangibles for impairment now has the option to assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events and circumstances indicates that it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired.  If, after assessing the totality of events and circumstances, an entity concludes that it is not more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired, then the entity is not required to take further action.  However, if an entity concludes otherwise, then it is required to determine the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset and perform the quantitative impairment test by comparing the fair value with the carrying amount in accordance with current guidance.  An entity also has the option to bypass the qualitative assessment for any indefinite-lived intangible asset in any period and proceed directly to performing the quantitative impairment test.  An entity will be able to resume performing the qualitative assessment in any subsequent period.  The amendments are effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012.  The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the ASU but does not expect it will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In October 2012, the FASB issued ASU. 2012-06, Subsequent Accounting for an Indemnification Asset Recognized at the Acquisition Date as a Result of a Government-Assisted Acquisition of a Financial Institution.  The Update clarifies that when an entity recognizes an indemnification asset as a result of a government-assisted acquisition of a financial institution and subsequently, a change in the cash flows expected to be collected on the indemnification asset occurs, as a result of a change in cash flows expected to be collected on the assets subject to indemnification, the reporting entity should subsequently account for the change in the measurement of the indemnification asset on the same basis as the change in the assets subject to indemnification. Any amortization of changes in value should be limited to the contractual term of the indemnification agreement. The amendments are effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2012. The adoption of this ASU will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

As of September 30, 2012, our securities portfolio consisted of fourteen U.S. agency and five non-U.S. agency mortgage backed securities with a fair value of $20.9 million, of which all five non-U.S. agency securities and nine U.S. agency securities were in an unrealized loss position.  The unrealized losses were primarily caused by changes in interest rates and a lack of market liquidity causing a decline in the fair value subsequent to the purchase.  The contractual terms of these investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than par.  While management does not intend to sell the securities, and it is unlikely that the Company will be required to sell these securities before recovery of its amortized cost basis, management’s impairment evaluation indicates that certain securities possess qualitative and quantitative factors that suggest an other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”).  These factors include, but are not limited to: the length of time and extent of the fair value declines, ratings agency down grades, the potential for an increased level of actual defaults, and the extension in duration of the securities. In addition to the qualitative factors, management’s evaluation includes an assessment of quantitative evidence that involves the use of cash flow modeling and present value calculations as determined by considering the applicable OTTI accounting guidance.  The Company compares the present value of the current estimated cash flows to the present value of the previously estimated cash flows.  Accordingly, if the present value of the current estimated cash flows is less than the present value of the previous period’s present value, an adverse change is considered to exist and the security is considered OTTI.  The associated “credit loss” is the amount by which the security’s amortized cost exceeds the present value of the current estimated cash flows.  Based upon the results of the cash flow modeling as of September 30, 2012, four securities reflected OTTI during the nine month period ended September 30, 2012.  Estimating the expected cash flows and determining the present values of the cash flows involves the use of a variety of assumptions and complex modeling.  In developing its assumptions, the Company considers all available information relevant to the collectability of the applicable security, including information about past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts.  Furthermore, the Company asserts that the cash flows used in the determination of OTTI are its “best estimate” of cash flows.

The Company engages a third party to assist management with modeling cash flows.  The model includes each individual non-agency mortgage backed securities’ structural features.  The modeled cash flows are discounted and they incorporate additional projected defaults based upon risk analysis of the financial condition and performance. Utilizing the quantitative change in the net present value of the cash flows compared to the amortized cost of the security, the Company recognized additional credit losses of $156,000 in non-cash pre-tax impairment charges for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.  Cumulative at September 30, 2012, the Company has recognized a total of $412,000 of OTTI on four of the five non-agency mortgage backed securities.

Credit Quality Indicators.  Federal regulations provide for the classification of lower quality loans and other assets, such as debt and equity securities, as substandard, doubtful or loss.  An asset is considered substandard if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and payment capacity of the borrower or of any collateral pledged.  Substandard assets include those characterized by the distinct possibility that we will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.  Assets classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses of currently existing facts, conditions and values.  Assets classified as loss are those considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as assets without establishment of a specific loss reserve is not warranted.
 
When we classify problem assets as either substandard or doubtful, we may establish a specific allowance in an amount we deem prudent to address the risk specifically or we may allow the loss to be addressed in the general allowance.  General allowances represent loss reserves which have been established to recognize the inherent risk associated with lending activities, but which, unlike specific allowances, have not been specifically allocated to particular problem assets.  When an insured institution classifies problem assets as a loss, it is required to charge off such assets in the period in which they are deemed uncollectible.  Assets that do not currently expose us to sufficient risk to warrant classification as substandard or doubtful but possess identified weaknesses are required to be classified as either watch or special mention assets.  Our determination as to the classification of our assets and the amount of our valuation allowances and related provision for loan losses is subject to review by the OCC, which can order the establishment of additional loss allowances.
 
Early indicator loan grades are used to identify and track potential problem loans which do not rise to the levels described for substandard, doubtful or loss.  The grades for watch and special mention are assigned to loans which have been criticized based upon known characteristics such as periodic payment delinquency or stale financial information from the borrower and/or guarantors.  Loans identified as criticized (watch and special mention) or classified (substandard, doubtful or loss) are subject to monthly problem loan reporting.

Nonaccrual and Past Due Loans.  Loans are considered past due if the required principal and interest payments have not been received as of the date such payments were due.  Loans are automatically placed on nonaccrual once the loan is 90 days past due or if, in management’s opinion, the borrower may be unable to meet payment of obligations as they become due, as well as when required by regulatory provisions.

Impaired Loans.  A loan is considered impaired when we have determined that we may be unable to collect payments of principal or interest when due under the terms of the loan.  In the process of identifying loans as impaired, we take into consideration factors which include payment history and status, collateral value, financial condition of the borrower, and the probability of collecting scheduled payments in the future.  Minor payment delays and insignificant payment shortfalls typically do not result in a loan being classified as impaired.  The significance of payment delays and shortfalls is considered on a case by case basis, after taking into consideration the totality of circumstances surrounding the loans and the borrowers, including payment history and amounts of any payment shortfall, length and reason for delay, and likelihood of return to stable performance.  Impairment is measured on a loan by loan basis for all loans in the portfolio.

Troubled debt restructurings.  Loans classified as TDRs totaled $7.3 million and $6.9 million at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively and are included in impaired loans.  A TDR is a loan to a borrower that is experiencing financial difficulty that has been modified from its original terms and conditions in such a way that the Company is granting the borrower a concession of some kind.  The Company has granted a variety of concessions to borrowers in the form of loan modifications.  The modifications granted can generally be described in the following categories:

Rate Modification: A modification in which the interest rate is changed.

Term Modification: A modification in which the maturity date, timing of payments, or frequency of payments is changed.

Payment Modification: A modification in which the dollar amount of the payment is changed.  Interest only modifications in which a loan in converted to interest only payments for a period of time are included in this category.

Combination Modification:  Any other type of modification, including the use of multiple categories above.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, there were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 or between Level 2 and Level 3.

The following table provides a description of the valuation technique, unobservable input, and qualitative information about the unobservable inputs for the Company’s assets and liabilities classified as Level 3 and measured at fair value on a recurring basis at September 30, 2012:

Unobservable Input(s)
 
Weighted Average

Prepayment Speed Assumption
    372.0 %
   
Discount rate
    10.0 %

Generally, any significant increases in the constant prepayment rate and discount rate utilized in the fair value measurement of the mortgage servicing rights will result in a negative fair value adjustment (and decrease in the fair value measurement).  Conversely, a decrease in the constant prepayment rate and discount rate will result in a positive fair value adjustment (and increase in the fair value measurement).  An increase in the weighted average life assumptions will result in a decrease in the constant prepayment rate and conversely, a decrease in the weighted average life will result in an increase of the constant prepayment rate.

A description of the valuation methodologies used for impaired loans and OREO is as follows:

Impaired Loans - The fair value of collateral dependent loans is based on the current appraised value of the collateral or internally developed models utilizing a calculation of expected discounted cash flows which contain
management’s assumptions. These assets are classified as level 3 and are measured on a nonrecurring basis.

Other Real Estate Owned (“OREO”) and Repossessed Assets - OREO and repossessed assets consist principally of properties acquired through foreclosure and are carried at the lower of cost or estimated market value less selling costs. The fair value is based on current appraised value or other sources of value.
 
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate fair value of each class of financial instruments listed above:
 
Cash and cash equivalents, accrued interest receivable and payable, and advance payments from borrowers for taxes and insurance - The estimated fair value is equal to the carrying amount.
 
AFS Securities – AFS securities are recorded at fair value based on quoted market prices, if available.  If quoted market prices are not available, management utilizes third-party pricing services or broker quotations from dealers in the specific instruments.  Level 1 securities include those traded on an active exchange, as well as U.S. government and its agencies securities.  Level 2 securities include private label mortgage-backed securities.
 
Loans Held for Sale - Residential mortgage loans held for sale are recorded at the lower of cost or fair value. The fair value of fixed-rate residential loans is based on whole loan forward prices obtained from government sponsored enterprises. At September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, loans held for sale were carried at cost.
 
Loans - The estimated fair value for all fixed rate loans is determined by discounting the estimated cash flows using the current rate at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and maturities. The estimated fair value for variable rate loans is the carrying amount. The fair value for all loans also takes into account projected loan losses as a part of the estimate.
 
Mortgage Servicing Rights – Mortgage servicing rights represent the value associated with servicing residential mortgage loans, when the mortgage loans have been sold into the secondary market and the related servicing has been retained by us. The value is determined though a discounted cash flow analysis, which uses interest rates, prepayment speeds and delinquency rate assumptions as inputs. All of these assumptions require a significant degree of management judgment. Servicing rights and the related mortgage loans are segregated into categories of homogeneous pools based upon common characteristics. Mortgage servicing rights are classified as Level 3.
 
FHLB stock - The estimated fair value is equal to the par value of the stock, which approximates fair value.
 
Bank-owned Life Insurance - The estimated fair value is equal to the cash surrender value of policies, net of surrender charges.
 
Deposits - The estimated fair value of deposit accounts (savings, demand deposit, and money market accounts) is the carrying amount. The fair value of fixed-maturity time certificates of deposit are estimated by discounting the estimated cash flows using the current rate at which similar certificates would be issued.
 

 
 

 


SOUND FINANCIAL BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
Selected Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

 
Borrowings - The fair value of borrowings are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, based on the Company’s current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.
 
Off-balance-sheet financial instruments - The fair value for the Company’s off-balance-sheet loan commitments are estimated based on fees charged to others to enter into similar agreements taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and credit standing of the Company’s customers. The estimated fair value of these commitments is not significant.
 
We assume interest rate risk (the risk that general interest rate levels will change) as a result of our normal operations. As a result, the fair values of our financial instruments will change when interest rate levels change, which may be favorable or unfavorable to us. Management attempts to match maturities of assets and liabilities to the extent necessary or possible to minimize interest rate risk. However, borrowers with fixed-rate obligations are less likely to prepay in a rising rate environment and more likely to prepay in a falling rate environment. Conversely, depositors who are receiving fixed rates are more likely to withdraw funds before maturity in a rising rate environment and less likely to do so in a falling rate environment. Management monitors rates and maturities of assets and liabilities and attempts to minimize interest rate risk by establishing early withdrawal penalties for certificates of deposit, creating interest rate floors for certain variable rate loans, adjusting terms of new loans and deposits, by borrowing at fixed rates for fixed terms and investing in securities with terms that mitigate our overall interest rate risk.

Note 8 – Borrowings
 
The Company utilizes a loan agreement with the FHLB of Seattle. The terms of the agreement call for a blanket pledge of a portion of the Company’s mortgage and commercial and multifamily portfolio based on the outstanding balance. At September 30, 2012, the amount available to borrow under this agreement is approximately 35% of total assets, or up to $128.3 million subject to the availability of eligible collateral.  Based on eligible collateral, the total amount available under this agreement as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 was $89.0 million and $83.5 million, respectively.  The Company had outstanding borrowings under this arrangement of $8.0 million and $8.5 million at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.  Additionally, the Company had outstanding letters of credit from the FHLB with a notional amount of $30.0 million and $24.0 million at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, to secure public deposits.  The net remaining amounts available as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, was $51.0 million and $51.0 million, respectively.
 
The Company participates in the Federal Reserve Bank’s Borrower-in-Custody program, which gives the Company access to overnight borrowings from the discount window.  The terms of the program call for a pledge of specific assets.  The Company had unused borrowing capacity under this program of $9.8 million and $21.9 million at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.  There were no outstanding borrowings at September 30, 2012 or December 31, 2011.

Note 10 – Stock-based Compensation

Stock Options and Restricted Stock

In 2008, the Board of Directors adopted and stockholders approved an Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) which was assumed by the Company in connection with the Conversion.  The Plan permits the grant of restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock options, and stock appreciation rights.  Under the Plan, 126,287 shares of common stock were approved for awards for stock options and stock appreciation rights and 50,514 shares of common stock were approved for awards for restricted stock and restricted stock units, in each case, as adjusted for the Conversion exchange ratio.
 
As of September 30, 2012, on an adjusted basis, awards for stock options totaling 125,051 shares and awards for restricted stock totaling 24,747 shares of Company common stock have been granted, net of any forfeitures, to participants in the Plan.  During the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012, share-based compensation expense totaled $59,000 and $125,000, respectively.  During the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011, share-based compensation expense totaled $33,000 and $99,000, respectively for both stock options and restricted stock.  All of the awards vest in 20 percent annual increments commencing one year from the grant date.  The options are exercisable for a period of 10 years from the date of grant, subject to vesting.

(1)As stated in Note 2, all share and per share information in this report for periods prior to the Conversion has been revised to reflect the 0.87423 Conversion exchange ratio.

As of September 30, 2012, there was $195,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options granted under the Plan.  The cost is expected to be recognized over the remaining weighted-average vesting period of 2.64 years.

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes model that uses the assumptions noted in the table below.  The dividend yield is based on the current quarterly dividend in effect at the time of the grant.

The Company (including the predecessor entity) became a publicly held company in January 2008, so the amount of historical stock price information available is limited.  As a result, the Company elected to use a weighted-average of its peers’ historical stock prices, as well as the Company’s own historical stock prices to estimate volatility.  The Company bases the risk-free interest rate on the U.S. Treasury Constant Maturity Indices in effect on the date of the grant.  The Company elected to use the Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 110, “Share-Based Payments” permitted by the Securities and Exchange Commission to calculate the expected term.  This simplified method uses the vesting term of an option along with the contractual term, setting the expected life at a midpoint in between.

The fair value of options granted during 2012 were determined using the following weighted-average assumptions as of the grant date.
 
Annual dividend yield
    0.00 %
Expected volatility
    28.97 %
Risk-free interest rate
    1.46 %
Expected term
 
7.5 years
Weighted-average grant date fair value per option granted
  $ 8.49  

The fair value of the restricted stock awards is equal to the fair value of the Company’s stock at the date of grant.  Compensation expense is recognized over the vesting period that the awards are based.  Shares awarded as restricted stock vest ratably over a five-year period beginning at the grant date with 20% vesting on the anniversary date of each grant date.

The following is a summary of the Company’s unvested restricted stock awards for the nine month period ended September 30, 2012:

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation
 
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
 
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
General
 
On August 22, 2012, Sound Financial Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) became the holding company for Sound Community Bank (the “Bank”) and owner of all of the issued and outstanding shares of the Bank’s common stock.  The Company is a Maryland chartered stock holding company and is subject to regulation by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (“Federal Reserve”).  See Note 2 – Conversion and Stock Issuance for additional information.

Substantially all of the Company’s business is conducted through the Bank, which is a federal savings bank subject to extensive regulation by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”).  The Bank’s deposits are insured up to applicable limits by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”).  At September 30, 2012, the Company had total consolidated assets of $366.5 million, net loans of $304.7 million, deposits of $313.0 million and stockholders’ equity of $42.3 million.  Shares of the Company’s common stock are traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “SFBC.” Our executive offices are located at 2005 5th Avenue – Suite 200, Seattle, Washington, 98121.

During October 2012, the Bank filed an application to convert from a federally chartered savings bank to a Washington state-chartered commercial bank.  As a Washington commercial bank, the Bank’s regulators will be the Washington State Department of Financial Institutions (“WDFI”) and the FDIC.  The Federal Reserve will remain as the primary federal regulator for the Company.  While the proposed charter conversion requires regulatory approval, the Bank expects the new charter to become effective in December 2012.  The change is intended to reduce regulatory examination costs and to move oversight of the Bank to the WDFI, which is focused on local community banks and financial institutions.  The charter conversion will not affect our customers in any way, and they will continue to receive the same protection on deposits through the FDIC.

Our principal business consists of attracting retail deposits from the general public and investing those funds, along with borrowed funds, in loans secured by first and second mortgages on one- to four-family residences (including home equity loans and lines of credit), commercial and multifamily, consumer and commercial business loans and, to a lesser extent, construction and land loans.  We offer a wide variety of secured and unsecured consumer loan products, including manufactured home loans, automobile loans, boat loans and recreational vehicle loans.  As part of our business, we focus on residential mortgage loan originations, many of which we sell to Fannie Mae. We sell these loans with servicing retained to maintain the direct customer relationship and promote our emphasis on strong customer service.

Our operating revenues are derived principally from earnings on interest earning assets, service charges and fees, and gains on the sale of loans.  Our primary sources of funds are retail deposits, Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) advances and other borrowings, and payments received on loans and securities.  We offer a variety of deposit accounts that provide a range of interest rates and terms based on market conditions, generally including savings, money market, term certificate and demand accounts.

Our noninterest expenses consist primarily of salaries and employee benefits, expenses for occupancy, marketing and computer services and FDIC deposit insurance premiums.  Salaries and benefits consist primarily of the salaries and wages paid to our employees, payroll taxes, expenses for retirement and other employee benefits.  Occupancy expenses, which are the fixed and variable costs of buildings and equipment, consist primarily of lease payments, property taxes, depreciation charges, maintenance and costs of utilities.

Critical Accounting Policies

We consider accounting policies involving significant judgments and assumptions by management that have, or could have, a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets or on income to be critical accounting policies. Estimates associated with these policies are susceptible to material changes as a result of changes in facts and circumstances.  Facts and circumstances that could affect these judgments include, but are not limited to, changes in interest rates, changes in the performance of the economy and changes in the financial condition of borrowers.  Management believes that its critical accounting policies include determining the allowance for loan losses, accounting for other-than-temporary impairment of securities, accounting for mortgage servicing rights, accounting for other real estate owned, and accounting for deferred income taxes. For additional information on our accounting policies see our Form 10-K Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2011.
 
Comparison of Financial Condition at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011
 
General.  Total assets increased by $26.8 million, or 7.9%, to $366.5 million at September 30, 2012 from $339.7 million at December 31, 2011.  This increase was primarily the result of a $9.0 million, or 3.1% increase in our net loan portfolio, and a $17.9 million, or 598.2% increase in available-for-sale securities.  Our total liabilities increased by $13.2 million or 4.2% to $324.2 million at September 30, 2012 from $311.0 million at December 31, 2011 primarily as a result of a $13.0 million, or 4.3% increase in deposits.
 
Cash and Securities.  Cash, cash equivalents and our available-for-sale securities increased $16.5 million, or 82.5%, to $36.5 million at September 30, 2012.  Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $1.4 million, or 8.1%, to $15.7 million at September 30, 2012, as excess cash balances were deployed to purchase agency mortgage-backed securities.  Available-for-sale securities increased $17.9 million, or 598.2%, to $20.9 million at September 30, 2012.  This increase reflects purchases of agency mortgage-backed securities made in the third quarter with the proceeds received from our stock offering completed in August 2012, slightly  offset by investment pay-downs and other-than- temporary impairment charges on our non-agency mortgage-backed security portfolio.
 
At September 30, 2012, included in our available-for-sale securities portfolio, were $2.8 million of non-agency mortgage-backed securities.  These securities present a higher credit risk than U.S. agency mortgage-backed securities, of which we had $18.1 million at September 30, 2012.  In order to monitor the increased risk, management receives and reviews a quarterly credit surveillance report from a third party, which evaluates non-agency securities based on a number of factors, including credit scores, loan-to-value ratios, geographic locations, delinquencies and loss histories of the underlying mortgage loans.  This analysis is prepared in order to project potential future losses based on various home price depreciation scenarios over a three-year horizon.  Based on these reports, management ascertains the appropriate value for these securities and, in the nine months ended September 30, 2012, recorded an impairment charge of $156,000 on four of these non-agency securities.  The current market environment significantly limits our ability to mitigate our exposure to value changes in these more risky securities by selling them, and we do not anticipate these conditions to change significantly in the next 12 months.  Accordingly, if the market and economic environment impacting the loans supporting these securities continues to deteriorate, we could determine that additional impairment must be recorded on these securities, as well as on any other securities in our portfolio.  As a result, our future earnings, equity, regulatory capital and ongoing operations could be materially adversely affected.
 
Loans.  Our total loan portfolio (including loans held for sale and excluding deferred fees) increased $9.2 million, or 3.0%, to $311.1 million at September 30, 2012.  Loans held for sale increased from $1.8 million at December 31, 2011, to $2.1 million at September 30, 2012.  The increase was primarily due to the timing difference between loan fundings and loan sale settlements.
 
The most significant changes in our loan portfolio during the year to date included an increase of $13.9 million or 13.1% in our commercial and multifamily real estate, a $2.9 million or 16.2% increase in our construction and land loans and a $1.6 million or 12.1% increase in commercial business loans.  Manufactured home loans decreased by $1.4 million or 7.8% while other consumer loans decreased $1.8 million or 16.8% between December 31, 2011 and September 30, 2012 primarily as a result of charge-offs, prepayments and lower demand from creditworthy borrowers in the current economic environment.

 
 

 


The following table reflects the changes in the types of loans in our loan portfolio at September 30, 2012 as compared to the end of 2011:

Total
  $ 311,712     $ 302,309     $ 9,403       3.1 %

Mortgage Servicing Rights.  At September 30, 2012, we had $2.3 million in mortgage servicing rights recorded at fair value compared to $2.4 million at December 31, 2011.  The decrease during the period was the result of a lower market valuation for our mortgage servicing rights which was offset somewhat by an increase in our originated servicing portfolio as of September 30, 2012 compared to December 31, 2011.
 
Nonperforming Assets.  At September 30, 2012, our nonperforming assets totaled $6.9 million, or 1.88% of total assets, compared to $9.5 million, or 2.78% of total assets at December 31, 2011.
 
Nonperforming loans to total loans decreased to 1.41% of total loans at September 30, 2012 from 2.20% at December 31, 2011.  The decrease reflects a $2.3 million decrease in nonperforming loans in the nine month period although nonperforming loans remain elevated compared to historical levels due to the continuing weak economy in our market area.  Our largest nonperforming loans at September 30, 2012 consisted of a $1.1 million commercial real estate loan, a $471,000 commercial land development loan and a $338,000 home equity loan.
 
OREO and repossessed assets decreased by $273,000 during the first nine months of 2012.  We repossessed 17 one- to four- family residences, nine manufactured homes, two boats and one recreational vehicle in the nine months ended September 30, 2012.  During the same period, we sold seven one- to four- family residences, two commercial properties, nine manufactured homes and a recreational vehicle at an aggregate loss of $314,000.  Our largest OREO at September 30, 2012, consisted of a mobile home park with a recorded value of $1.1 million located in Spanaway, Washington.  Our next two largest OREO properties were comprised of a $490,000 one- to four- family property located in Carnation, Washington and a $198,000 one- to four- family property located in Dayton, Washington.

Nonperforming loans include $814,000 and $2.8 million in nonperforming TDRs as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

In addition to the non-performing assets set forth in the table above, as of September 30, 2012, there were $3.3 million in loans with respect to which known information about possible credit problems of the borrowers have caused management to have doubts as to the abilities of the borrowers to comply with present loan repayment terms.  This may result in the future inclusion of such loans in the nonperforming asset categories.
 
Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses is maintained to cover losses that are probable and can be estimated on the date of the evaluation in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. It is our best estimate of probable incurred credit losses in our loan portfolio.
 
Our allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2012 was $4.3 million, or 1.40% of total loans receivable, compared to $4.5 million, or 1.47% of total loans receivable at December 31, 2011.  The $122,000, or 2.7% decrease in the allowance for loan losses reflects the $3.7 million provision for loan losses established during the first nine months of 2012 as a result of an increase in our loan portfolio and net charge-offs of $3.8 million during the period as well as the decline in nonperforming loans.
 

Specific loan loss reserves increased $274,000, and general loan loss reserves decreased by $396,000 at September 30, 2012 compared to December 31, 2011.  Net charge-offs for the nine months ending September 30, 2012 were $3.8 million, or 1.67% of average loans on an annualized basis, compared to $3.8 million, or 1.69% of average loans for the same period in 2011.  As of September 30, 2012, the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans receivable and nonperforming loans was 1.40% and 99.75%, respectively, compared to 1.47% and 67.12%, respectively, at December 31, 2011.  The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans receivable decreased slightly due to an increase in loans receivable during the nine month period ended September 30, 2012.  The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of nonperforming loans increased during this same period due to an decrease in nonperforming loans.

During the first nine months of 2012, checking and NOW accounts increased $6.0 million, or 12.2% to $55.2 million.  These increases were a result of our emphasis on attracting these and other low-cost deposits such as savings accounts, which increased $3.0 million, or 13.4% in the first nine months of 2012.  Although certificate balances increased $6.5 million in the first nine months of 2012, this was a result of increases in our public fund certificates.  Public fund certificates increased $9.4 million while business and consumer certificates decreased $2.9 million, or 2.7%.  This is a result of the low interest rate environment and strategic decision to compete less aggressively on certificate interest rates
 
Borrowings.  FHLB advances decreased $482,000, or 5.7%, to $8.0 million at September 30, 2012, with a weighted-average cost of 2.76%, from $8.5 million at December 31, 2011, with a weighted-average cost of 2.17%. We continue to utilize FHLB advances to fund interest-earning asset growth and/or enhance our interest rate risk management despite our strong deposit growth.
 
Stockholders’ Equity.  Total stockholders’ equity increased $13.6 million, or 47.3%, to $42.3 million at September 30, 2012, from $28.7 million at December 31, 2011.  This primarily reflects an increase in paid-in capital as a result of net proceeds from the Conversion of $12.7 million as well as $1.8 million in net income and a $186,000 decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss.
 

 
 

 


Comparison of Results of Operation for the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012 and 2011
 
General. Net income increased $431,000 to $612,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared to $181,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2011.  The primary reasons for this improvement were increased gain on sales of loans, and a decrease in the provision for loan losses, partially offset by increased noninterest expenses.   Net income increased $621,000 to $1.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to $1.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011.  The improvement in the nine month results were primarily attributable to decreased interest expense and increased noninterest income as a result of increased gain on sales of loans.  These improvements were partially offset by increases in the provision for loan losses and noninterest expenses in the current nine month period compared to the nine month period in 2011.
 
Interest Income.  Interest income decreased by $71,000, or 1.5%, to $4.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2011.  Interest income decreased by $260,000, or 1.9%, to $13.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011.  The decrease in interest income primarily reflected lower interest rates realized on our loan portfolio despite an increase in our average loan balances during the 2012 periods as compared to the same periods last year.  Our average balance of loans receivable increased $9.7 million to $307.4 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2012 from $297.7 million during the same period last year.  The average balance of loans receivable increased $5.6 million to $303.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 from $297.4 million during the same period last year.
 
The weighted average yield on loans decreased from 6.12% for the three months ended September 30, 2011, to 5.77% for the three months ended September 30, 2012.  The weighted average yield on loans decreased from 6.18% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, to 5.92% for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.  The decrease was primarily the result of the continued historically low interest rate environment and the competitive market for loans to well-qualified borrowers.  The weighted average yield on investments, including OTTI, was 2.24% for the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to 0.10% for the three months ended September 30, 2011.  The weighted average yield on investments, including OTTI, was 1.42% for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to 2.86% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011.  The decrease reflects increased average balances of agency mortgage-backed securities in the 2012 period which currently carry a lower yield than non-agency mortgage-backed securities.  Non-agency mortgage-backed securities made up a significant  proportion of the investment portfolio in the 2011 period.
 
Interest Expense.  Interest expense decreased $85,000, or 12.5%, to $596,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, from $681,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2011.  Interest expense decreased $332,000, or 15.7%, to $1.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, from $2.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011.  This decrease reflects overall lower interest rates paid on deposits notwithstanding an increase in the average balances of deposits during both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the same periods last year.  Our average balance of deposits increased $37.2 million to $318.7 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2012 from $281.5 million during the same period last year.  The average balance of deposits increased $30.8 million to $309.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 from $278.8 million during the same period last year.  Our weighted average cost of interest-bearing liabilities was 0.83% for the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared to 1.00% for the three months ended September 30, 2011.  Our weighted average cost of interest-bearing liabilities was 0.84% for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to 0.87% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011.
 
Interest paid on deposits decreased $86,000, or 13.7% to $540,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, from $626,000 for the same period in 2011.  Interest paid on deposits decreased $276,000, or 14.6% to $1.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, from $1.9 million for the same period in 2011.  These reductions were the result of decreases in the weighted average cost of deposits during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2011 as lower rates were paid on renewing certificates of deposit and existing savings, interest-bearing checking and money market accounts.
 
Interest expense on borrowings increased $1,000, or 1.8%, to $56,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 from $55,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2011.  Interest expense on borrowings decreased $56,000, or 25.1% to $167,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, from $223,000 for the same period in 2011.  The decrease primarily resulted from a $1.2 million and $7.9 million decrease in the average balance of borrowings outstanding for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012, respectively compared to the same period in 2011.  The decrease in borrowings was a result of scheduled loan pay offs that were not replaced due to increased balances of deposits.
 
 
 

 
Net Interest Income.  Net interest income was $3.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012, and  2011, respectively.  Net interest income increased $72,000, or 0.6%, to $11.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, from $11.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011.  The increase in net interest income for the nine months ended September 30,  2012  primarily resulted from lower rates paid on deposits and lower outstanding borrowings  compared to the same period last year.  In addition, lower rates on loans were realized on our loan portfolio due to the historically low rate environment, especially for loans to well-qualified borrowers.  Our net interest margin was 4.91% for the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared to 5.22% for the three months ended September 30, 2011.  Our net interest margin was 5.12% for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to 5.25% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011.
 
Provision for Loan Losses.  A provision for loan losses of $1.1 million was made during the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared to a provision for loan losses of $1.3 million during the three months ended September 30, 2011.  A provision for loan losses of $3.7 million was made during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to a provision for loan losses of $3.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2011.  The decrease in the provision for the three month comparison period was the result of both decreased net charge-offs and lower levels of nonperforming loans.  The increase in provision expense for the nine month comparison period was a result of increases in net charge-offs and nonperforming loans during the nine month period ended September 30, 2012.  The increase in net charge-offs occurred primarily in the first quarter of 2012.  Overall we believe that higher than historical levels of nonperforming assets and charge-offs will continue until the housing market, unemployment, and general economic market conditions further recover in our market area.
 
For the three months ended September 30, 2012, the annualized percentage of net charge-offs to average loans decreased 17 basis points to 1.55% compared to 1.72% for the three months ended September 30, 2011.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the annualized percentage of net charge-offs to average loans decreased four basis points to 1.67% as compared to 1.71% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011.  The ratio of nonperforming loans to total loans decreased to1.41% at September 30, 2012 from 2.13% at September 30, 2011.
 
Noninterest Income.  Noninterest income decreased $941,000, or 353.8%, to $1.2 million during the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared to $266,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2011.  A summary of the changes in noninterest income for the three month period is presented in the table below:

Total
  $ 1,207     $ 266     $ 941       353.8 %
 
Service charges and fee income increased primarily due to higher loan fees from a greater volume of loan originations in the 2012 period versus the 2011 period.  Higher mortgage servicing income was a result of increased volumes of loans sold in the secondary market and higher loan sale margins on the sale of loans to Fannie Mae.  The fair value adjustment on mortgage servicing rights was impacted by the interest rate environment, as rates decreased during the 2012 period and prepayment speeds increased.  The increased gain on sale of loans was a result of an increase in the volume of loans originated for sale to Fannie Mae during the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the same 2011 period.  The loan origination volumes were achieved as a result of a continuing high volume of activity resulting from relatively low mortgage interest rates.
 

 
 

 


Noninterest income increased $1.5 million, or 81.0%, to $3.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to $1.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2011.  A summary of the changes in noninterest income for the nine month period is presented in the table below:

Service charges and fee income increased $124,000, or 8.2%, to $1.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to $1.5 million during the three months ended September 30, 2011.  This increase was primarily a result of increased volumes of loan originations in the 2012 period compared to the 2011 period.  We also introduced new deposit offerings that had a favorable impact on debit card income and other deposit fees.
 
The fair value adjustment on mortgage servicing rights was primarily a result of an increase in the size of the overall servicing asset as rates have remained relatively steady along with prepayment speeds.  The increased gain on sale of loans was a result of an increase in the volume of loans originated for sale and higher loan sale margins on the sale of loans to Fannie Mae during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the same 2011 period.  The loan origination volumes were achieved as a result of a continuing high volume of activity resulting from relatively low mortgage interest rates.
 
Noninterest Expense.  Noninterest expense increased $511,000, or 19.1%, to $3.2 million during the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared to $2.7 million during the three months ended September 30, 2011.  A summary of the changes in noninterest expense for the three month period is presented in the table below:

Salaries and benefits expense increased by $348,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2011 due to increased lending staff and higher commission expenses due to increased loan production.  Operations expense increased $95,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011 as a result of higher marketing costs associated with the rollout of new deposit products and higher loan processing costs due to increased loan production.  Data processing expenses increased primarily due to the rollout of the new deposit products and associated programming costs.

Salaries and benefits expense increased by $300,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011 due to increased lending staff and higher commission expenses due to increased loan production.  Operations expense increased as a result of higher marketing costs associated with the rollout of new deposit products and higher loan processing costs due to increased loan production.  Regulatory assessments decreased during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011 due to a decrease in the FDIC’s assessment rate.  Occupancy expenses increased primarily due to rent increases and other expenditures related to our main office.  Losses and expenses on OREO and repossessed assets decreased by $201,000 during the nine month 2012 period compared to same period in 2011 due to lower net losses and reduced  expenses associated with OREO property sales as well as reflecting a decline in the amount of OREO.
 
Income Tax Expense.  For the three months ended September 30, 2012, we had income tax expense of $281,000 on our pre-tax income as compared to $43,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2011.  The effective tax rates for the quarters ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 were 31.5% and 19.2%, respectively.
 
Liquidity

The Management Discussion and Analysis in Item 7 of the Company’s Form 10-K Annual Report filed with the SEC on March 31, 2012 contains an overview of the Company’s and the Bank’s liquidity management, sources of liquidity and cash flows.  This discussion updates that disclosure for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.
 
At September 30, 2012, the Bank had $36.5 million in cash and investment securities available for sale and $2.1 million in loans held for sale generally available for its cash needs.  Also, based on existing collateral pledged, the Bank had the ability to borrow an additional $51.0 million in Federal Home Loan Bank advances, $9.8 million through the Federal Reserve’s Discount Window and $2.0 million through Pacific Coast Banker’s Bank.  The Bank uses these sources of funds primarily to meet ongoing commitments, pay maturing deposits and fund withdrawals, and to fund loan commitments.  At September 30, 2012, outstanding loan commitments, including unused lines and letters of credit totaled $57.4 million.  Certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in one year or less at September 30, 2012, totaled $70.3 million.  Based on our competitive pricing, we believe that a majority of maturing deposits will remain with the Bank.
 
As a separate legal entity from the Bank, the Company must provide for its own liquidity.  At September 30, 2012, the Company, on an unconsolidated basis, had $4.2 million in cash, interest-bearing deposits and liquid investments generally available for its cash needs.  The Company’s principal source of liquidity is dividends from the Bank.
 
Except as set forth above, management is not aware of any trends, events, or uncertainties that will have, or that are reasonably likely to have a material impact on liquidity, capital resources or operations.
 

 
 

 


Off-Balance Sheet Activities
 
In the normal course of operations, the Company engages in a variety of financial transactions that are not recorded in our financial statements.  These transactions involve varying degrees of off-balance sheet credit, interest rate and liquidity risks.  These transactions are used primarily to manage customers’ requests for funding and take the form of loan commitments and lines of credit.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we engaged in no off-balance sheet transactions likely to have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
 
A summary of our off-balance sheet loan commitments at September 30, 2012, is as follows:

Capital
 
Sound Community Bank is subject to minimum capital requirements imposed by regulations of the OCC. Based on its capital levels at September 30, 2012, Sound Community Bank exceeded these requirements as of that date.  Consistent with our goals to operate a sound and profitable organization, our policy is for Sound Community Bank to maintain a “well-capitalized” status under the regulatory capital categories of the OCC.  Based on capital levels at September 30, 2012, Sound Community Bank was considered to be well-capitalized.  Management monitors the capital levels to provide for current and future business opportunities and to maintain Sound Community Bank’s “well-capitalized” status.

Item 3.                      Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
 
The Company is a smaller reporting company and is not required to provide this disclosure.
 
The Company provided information about market risk in Item 7A of its Form 10-K Annual Report filed with the SEC on March 31, 2012.  There have been no material changes in our market risk since our December 31, 2011 Form 10-K.
 
Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

(a)  
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

An evaluation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a -15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Act")), as of September 30, 2012, was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and several other members of the Company's senior management. The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2012, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Act is: (i) accumulated and communicated to the Company's management (including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer) in a timely manner, and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.
 
We intend to continually review and evaluate the design and effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and to improve the Company’s controls and procedures over time and to correct any deficiencies that we may discover in the future. The goal is to ensure that senior management has timely access to all material financial and non-financial information concerning the Company's business. While we believe the present design of the disclosure controls and procedures is effective to achieve this goal, future events affecting our business may cause the Company to modify its disclosure controls and procedures.
 
The Company does not expect that its disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all error and all fraud. A control procedure, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control procedure are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control procedures, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any control procedure is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control procedure, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
 
(b)  
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
 
 
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a - 15(f) under the Act) that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2012, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
