Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

General

SharePlus Federal Bank (the “Bank”), is a federal stock savings bank located in Plano, Texas. On October 29, 2010, the Bank completed its conversion from a federal mutual savings bank to a federal capital stock savings bank. A new holding company, SP Bancorp, Inc (the “Company”), was established as part of the conversion. The public offering was consummated through the sale and issuance by the Company of 1,725,000 shares of common stock at $10 per share. Net proceeds of $14,447 were raised in the stock offering, after deduction of conversion costs of $1,957 and excluding $846 which was loaned by the Company to a trust for the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the “ESOP”).

The Bank operates as a full-service bank, including the acceptance of checking and savings deposits, and the origination of single-family mortgage and home equity loans, commercial real estate and business loans, automobile loans, and other personal loans. In addition to the Bank’s home office, the Bank has six branches, one of which is located near downtown Dallas, Texas; two are located near the Bank’s headquarters in Plano, Texas; two branches are located in Louisville, Kentucky; and the other branch is located in Irvine, California. The Bank is currently regulated by the Office of Thrift Supervision and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, the Bank. The Company’s principal business is the business of the Bank. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation.

Accounting Standards Codification

The Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) is the officially recognized source of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) applicable to all public and non-public non-governmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under the authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. All other accounting literature is considered non-authoritative. Citing particular content in the ASC involves specifying the unique numeric path to the content through the Topic, Subtopic, Section and Paragraph structure.

Interim Financial Statements

The financial statements of the Company at March 31, 2011 and for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and predominant practices followed by the financial services industry; and are unaudited. However, in management’s opinion, the interim data at March 31, 2011 and for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 include all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the results of the interim periods. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. A material estimate that is particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relates to the determination of the allowance for loan losses.

Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share

Earnings per share are based upon the weighted-average shares outstanding. ESOP shares, which have been committed to be released, are considered outstanding.


	Three Months Ended
	March 31, 2011

Net earnings	$	217

Weighted-average shares outstanding		1,641

Basic and diluted earnings per share	$	0.13

Earnings per share are not presented for the three months ended March 31, 2010 since the stock offering was consummated subsequent to that date.

Recent Authoritative Accounting Guidance

In April 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-02, “A Creditor’s Determination of Whether a Restructuring is a Troubled Debt Restructuring.” The provisions of ASU 2011-02 clarify the guidance on a creditor’s evaluation of whether it has granted a concession and whether a debtor is experiencing financial difficulties. The adoption of ASU 2011-02, including the disclosures deferred by ASU 2011-01, are effective for the Company’s reporting period ending September 30, 2011.

Note 2. Stock Conversion

On October 29, 2010, the Bank completed its conversion from a federal mutual savings bank to a capital stock savings bank. A new holding company, the Company, was established as part of the conversion. The public offering was consummated through the sale and issuance by SP Bancorp, Inc. of 1,725,000 shares of common stock at $10 per share. Net proceeds of $14,447 were raised in the stock offering, after deduction of conversion costs of $1,957 and excluding $846 which was loaned by the Company to a trust for the ESOP. The Bank’s ESOP is authorized to purchase up to 138,000 shares of common stock. The ESOP purchased 67,750 of those shares in the offering and 17,850 shares in the open market through March 31, 2011. The remaining 52,400 shares are expected to be purchased in the near term. 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 Bank recognizes compensation expense equal to the fair value of the ESOP shares committed to be released during the year. 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.

The Company’s common stock is traded on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol “SPBC.” Voting rights are held and exercised exclusively by the stockholders of the new holding company. Deposit account holders continue to be insured by the FDIC. A liquidation account was established in the amount of $17.0 million, which represented the Bank’s total equity capital as of March 31, 2010, the latest balance sheet date in the final prospectus used in the conversion. The liquidation account is maintained for the benefit of eligible holders who continue to maintain their accounts at the Bank. The liquidation account is reduced annually to the extent that eligible account holders have reduced their qualifying deposits. Subsequent increases will not restore an eligible account holder’s interest in the liquidation account. In the event of a complete liquidation of the Bank, and only in such event, each eligible account holder will be entitled to receive a distribution from the liquidation account in an amount proportionate to the adjusted qualifying account balances then held.

(In thousands)

The Bank may not declare, pay a dividend on, or repurchase any of its capital stock, if the effect thereof would cause equity capital to be reduced below the liquidation account amount or regulatory capital requirements. Any repurchase of the Company’s common stock will be conducted in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.

Note 3. Securities

Securities have been classified in the consolidated balance sheets according to management’s intent. At March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, all of the Company’s securities were classified as available for sale. The amortized cost of securities and their approximate fair values at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 are as follows:

For all of the above securities available for sale, the gross unrealized losses are generally due to changes in interest rates. The gross unrealized losses were considered to be temporary as they reflected fair values on March 31, 2011 that are subject to change daily as interest rates fluctuate. The Company does not intend to sell these securities and it is more-likely-than-not that the Company will not be required to sell prior to anticipated recovery. 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 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 of the Company to sell or whether it would be more-likely-than-not required to sell its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.

The Bank originates loans to individuals and businesses, geographically concentrated primarily near the Bank’s offices in Dallas and Plano, Texas. Loan balances, interest rates, loan terms and collateral requirements vary according to the type of loan offered and overall credit-worthiness of the potential borrower.

Commercial business. Commercial business loans are made to customers for the purpose of acquiring equipment and other general business purposes. Commercial business loans are made based primarily on the historical and projected cash flow of the borrower and, to a lesser extent, the underlying collateral. Commercial business loans generally carry higher risk of default since their repayment generally depends on the successful operation of the business and the sufficiency of collateral.

SP Bancorp, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
(In thousands)

Commercial real estate. Commercial loans are secured primarily by office buildings, retail centers, owner-occupied offices, condominiums, developed lots and land. Commercial real estate loans are underwritten based on the economic viability of the property and creditworthiness of the borrower, with emphasis given to projected cash flow as a percentage of debt service requirements. These loans carry significant credit risks as they involve larger balances concentrated with single borrowers or groups of related borrowers. Repayment of loans secured by income-producing properties generally depends on the successful operation of the real estate project and may be subject to a greater extent to adverse market conditions and the general economy.

One-to-four family. One-to-four family loans are underwritten based on the applicant’s employment and credit history and the appraised value of the property.

Home equity. Home equity loans are underwritten similar to one-to-four family loans. Collateral value could be negatively impacted by declining real estate values.

Consumer. Consumer loans include automobile, signature and other consumer loans. Potential credit risks include rapidly depreciable assets, such as automobiles, which could adversely affect the value of the collateral.

On occasion, the Bank originates loans secured by single-family and home equity loans with high loan to value ratios exceeding 90 percent. These loans totaled $3,397 and $3,518 at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

The Bank utilizes a nine-point internal risk rating system for commercial real estate and commercial business loans, which provides a comprehensive analysis of the credit risk inherent in each loan. The rating system provides for five pass ratings. Rating grades six through nine comprise the adversely rated credits.

The Bank classifies problem and potential problem loans for all loan types using the regulatory classifications of special mention, substandard, doubtful and loss, which for commercial real estate and commercial business loans correspond to the risk ratings of six, seven, eight and nine, respectively. The regulatory classifications are updated, when warranted.

A loan is considered substandard if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Substandard loans include those characterized by the distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Loans classified as doubtful have all of the weaknesses inherent in those classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. Loans or portions of loans classified as loss, are those considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance is not warranted. Loans that do not expose the Bank to risk sufficient to warrant classification in one of the aforementioned categories, but which possess potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention, are required to be designated as special mention.

For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, gross interest income that would have been recorded had our non-accruing loans been current in accordance with their original terms was $57 and $78, respectively. Interest income recognized on such loans for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 was $2 and $2, respectively.

Troubled debt restructurings are loans for which a portion of the interest or principal has been forgiven or loans modified at interest rates materially less than current market rates.

The $960,000 decrease in the provision for loan losses was primarily attributable to a significant provision during the three months ended March 31, 2010 as a result of an increase in nonperforming loans, including a specific allowance of $604,000 on a commercial real estate loan, and the Bank’s gross allocation multipliers. Nonperforming loans increased to $6.3 million at March 31, 2010 from $3.4 million at December 31, 2009.

The Bank originated $10,248 and $6,306 in loans during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, which were placed with various correspondent lending institutions. Proceeds on sales of these loans were $12,720 and $5,893 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Gains on sales of these loans were $223 and $112 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. These loans were sold with servicing rights released.

Loans serviced for the benefit of others amounted to $2,590, $2,640 and $2,665 at March 31, 2011, December 31, 2010 and March 31, 2010, respectively.

Note 5. Borrowings

The Bank periodically borrows from the FHLB of Dallas. At March 31, 2011, the Bank had a total of fourteen such advances which totaled $15,984. These advances have various maturities ranging from August 8, 2011 through November 17, 2014 at interest rates from 0.49% to 3.09%.

At December 31, 2010, the Bank had a total of fourteen such advances which totaled $15,987. These advances have various maturities ranging from August 8, 2011 through November 17, 2014 at interest rates from 0.49% to 3.09%.

These advances are secured by FHLB of Dallas stock, real estate loans and securities of $123,325 and $116,532, at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The Bank had remaining credit available under the FHLB advance program of $107,147 and $100,332 at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

Note 6. Income Taxes

The effective tax rate was 27.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to 39.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily attributable to certain factors, including permanent differences related to tax exempt income consisting of interest on municipal obligations and BOLI income.

Note 7. Financial Instruments With Off-Balance Sheet Risk

The Bank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet.

The Bank’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual amount of these instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.

At March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the approximate amounts of these financial instruments were as follows:


	March 31,		December 31,
	2011		2010

Commitments to extend credit	$	16,873	$	14,315

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Bank evaluates each customer’s credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained if deemed necessary by the Bank upon extension of credit is based on managements’ credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but may include cattle, accounts receivable, inventory, property, single and multi-family residences, plant and equipment and income-producing commercial properties. At March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, commitments to fund fixed rate loans of $2,300 and $6,120, respectively, were included in the commitments to extend credit. Interest rates on these commitments to fund fixed rate loans ranged from 4.24% to 14.00% at March 31, 2011 and from 3.25% to 6.50% at December 31, 2010.

The Bank has not incurred any significant losses on its commitments in the three months ended March 31, 2011 or 2010. Although the maximum exposure to loss is the amount of such commitments, management anticipates no material losses from such activities.

Note 8. Regulatory Matters

The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal and state banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Bank’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank’s assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy requires the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the following table) of total and Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), of core capital (as defined) to adjusted tangible assets (as defined) and of tangible capital (as defined) to tangible assets. Management believes, as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, that the Bank meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.

At March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the most recent regulatory notification categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the institution’s category.

	March 31,			December 31,
	2011			2010

General allowance for loan losses		1,349			1,207

Total capital	$	29,757		$	29,336

Note 9. Fair Value Measurements

Accounting standards define fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. A fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. The price in the principal (or most advantageous) market used to measure the fair value of the asset or liability shall not be adjusted for transaction costs. An orderly transaction is a transaction that assumes exposure to the market for a period prior to the measurement date to allow for marketing activities that are usual and customary for transactions involving such assets and liabilities; it is not a forced transaction. Market participants are buyers and sellers in the principal market that are (1) independent, (2) knowledgeable, (3) able to transact and (4) willing to transact.

The guidance requires the use of valuation techniques that are consistent with the market approach, the income approach and/or the cost approach. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets and liabilities. The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts, such as cash flows or earnings, to a single present amount on a discounted basis. The cost approach is based on the amount that currently would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement cost). Valuation techniques should be consistently applied. Inputs to valuation techniques refer to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Inputs may be observable, meaning those that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from independent sources, or unobservable, meaning those that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. In that regard, the guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs.

The fair value hierarchy is as follows:

Level 1 Inputs — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2 Inputs — Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These might include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as interest rates, volatilities, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.) or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by market data by correlation or other means.

Level 3 Inputs — Unobservable inputs for determining the fair values of assets or liabilities that reflect an entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities.

A description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy, is set forth below.

Securities available for sale are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. The Company obtains fair value measurements for securities from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment spreads, credit information and the bond’s terms and conditions, among other things.

Certain financial assets and financial liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. The instruments are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of impairment). Certain impaired loans are reported at the fair value of underlying collateral if repayment is expected solely from the collateral. Other real estate owned is initially recorded at fair value less estimated costs of disposal, which establishes a new cost basis. Collateral values are estimated using Level 2 inputs based on observable market data such as independent appraisals or level 3 inputs based on customized discounting.

At March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, impaired loans (with allocated allowance for losses) had principal balances of $1,647 and $3,698, respectively, and allocated allowance for losses of $411 and $929, respectively. The allocated allowance for losses decreased due primarily to a partial charge-off of a loan secured by undeveloped land, which was foreclosed in February 2011.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments

The fair value of a financial instrument is the current amount that would be exchanged between willing parties, other than in a forced liquidation. Fair value is best determined based upon quoted market prices. However, in many instances, there are no quoted market prices for the Company’s various financial instruments. 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 fair value estimates may not be realized in an immediate settlement of the instrument. ASC 820 excludes certain financial instruments and all nonfinancial instruments from its disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented may not necessarily represent the underlying fair value of the Company.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
(In thousands)

Cash and short-term instruments

The carrying amounts of cash and short-term instruments approximate their fair value.

Securities

See Note 9 to Financial Statements for methods and assumptions used to estimate fair values for securities.
The carrying value of Federal Home Loan Bank stock and other restricted equities approximate fair value based on the redemption provisions of the Federal Home Loan Bank.

Fixed annuity investment

The carrying amount approximates fair value.

Loans and loans held for sale

For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and have no significant changes in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values. Fair values for real estate and commercial 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 impaired loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses or underlying collateral values, where applicable. Fair value of loans held for sale is based on commitments on hand from investors or prevailing market rates.

Deposits

The fair values disclosed for demand deposits are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (that is their carrying amounts). The carrying amounts of variable-rate, fixed term money market accounts and variable-rate certificates of deposit (CD’s) approximate their fair values at the reporting date. Fair values for fixed-rate CD’s are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits.

Advances from Federal Home Loan Bank

The fair value of advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank maturing within 90 days approximates carrying value. Fair value of other advances is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows based on the Bank’s current incremental borrowing rate for similar borrowing arrangements.

Accrued interest

The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate their fair values.

Off-balance sheet instruments

Commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit have short maturities and therefore have no significant fair value.


Item 2.		MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations at March 31, 2011 and for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 is intended to assist in understanding the financial condition and results of operations of the Company. The information contained in this section should be read in conjunction with the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto, appearing in Part 1, Item 1 of this report.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements, which can be identified by the use of words such as “estimate,” “project,” “believe,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “seek,” “expect,” “will,” “may” and words of similar meaning. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:

•

statements of our goals, intentions and expectations;

These forward-looking statements are based on our current beliefs and expectations and are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control. In addition, these forward-looking statements are subject to assumptions with respect to future business strategies and decisions that are subject to change. We are under no duty to and do not take any obligation to update any forward-looking statements after the date of this Form 10-Q.

The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements:

•

general economic conditions, either nationally or in our market areas, that are worse than expected;

•

competition among depository and other financial institutions;

•

changes in the interest rate environment that reduce our margins or reduce the fair value of financial instruments;

•

adverse changes in the securities markets;

•

changes in laws or government regulations or policies affecting financial institutions, including changes in regulatory fees and capital requirements;

•

our ability to enter new markets successfully and capitalize on growth opportunities;

•

our ability to successfully integrate acquired entities, if any;

•

changes in consumer spending, borrowing and savings habits;

•

changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted by the bank regulatory agencies, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board;

•

changes in our organization, compensation and benefit plans;

•

changes in our financial condition or results of operations that reduce capital; and

•

changes in the financial condition or future prospects of issuers of securities that we own.

Because of these and a wide variety of other uncertainties, our actual future results may be materially different from the results indicated by these forward-looking statements.

Overview

At March 31, 2011, we had total assets of $259.3 million, compared to $238.8 million at December 31, 2010. This increase was primarily the result of an increase in cash and cash equivalents and investment in bank-owned life insurance, funded by customer deposits. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, we had net income of $217,000, compared to a net loss of $323,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. Higher net income resulted from a higher level of net interest income, a lower provision for loan losses and a higher noninterest income, partially offset by a higher noninterest expense and income tax expense.

Our results of operations depend mainly on our net interest income, which is the difference between the interest income we earn on our loan and investment portfolios and the interest expense we incur on our deposits and, to a lesser extent, our borrowings. Results of operations are also affected by service charges and other fees, provision for loan losses, commissions, gains on sales of securities and loans and other income. Our noninterest expense consists primarily of compensation and benefits, occupancy costs, equipment expense, data processing, ATM expense, professional and outside services, FDIC insurance assessments, marketing and income tax expense.

Our results of operations are also significantly affected by general economic and competitive conditions (such as changes in energy prices which have an impact on our Texas market area), as well as changes in interest rates, government policies and actions of regulatory authorities. Future changes in applicable laws, regulations or government policies may materially affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Critical Accounting Policies. There are no material changes to the critical accounting policies disclosed in SP Bancorp, Inc.’s Form 10-K dated December 31, 2010, as filed on March 29, 2011 with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Economy. Like the national economy, the Texas economy has been in a recession, but the Texas unemployment rate has been below the national rate for several months. The Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex unemployment rate declined from 8.2% in June 2009 to 8.1% in February 2011. While the state’s seasonally adjusted unemployment rate rose from 7.8% in June 2009 to 8.1% in March 2011, and the corresponding U.S. rate decreased from 9.5% to 8.8% during the same period.

Total assets increased primarily as a result of an increase in cash and cash equivalents and investment in bank-owned life insurance, funded by customer deposits.

Net loans increased primarily in commercial real estate loans.

Deposits increased primarily from deposit inflows from existing customers.

Stockholders’ equity increased primarily as a result of net income of $217,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2011.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2011 and 2010

General. We recorded net income of $217,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to a net loss of $323,000 for the same period last year. Net interest income increased by $288,000 to $2.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from $2.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010, our provision for loan losses decreased by $960,000 and noninterest income increased by $178,000, which was partially offset by higher noninterest expense, which increased by $590,000, and income tax expense, which increased by $296,000.

Net interest-earning assets	$	32,640	$	15,299	$	17,341			113.35	%

Interest Income. Interest income increased primarily due to the investment of proceeds from our common stock offering in October 2010 and customer deposits in loans, our highest earning asset.

Interest income and fees on loans increased as the increase in the average balance of loans more than offset a decrease in the average yield on our loans. The average yield on our loan portfolio decreased, reflecting a lower market interest rate environment.

Interest income on taxable securities decreased primarily from a decrease in our portfolio yield, which more than offset the increase in the average balance of our taxable securities. The decline in the average yield on our taxable securities portfolio resulted from lower market interest rates.

Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased as the decrease in the average cost of deposits more than offset the increase in the average balance of deposits. The average rate we paid on deposits decreased as we were able to reprice our deposits downward in the declining market interest rate environment. The increase in the average balance of our deposits resulted primarily from increases in the average balance of money market accounts, and to a lesser extent, certificates of deposit, reflecting our successful marketing efforts.

Interest expense on borrowings decreased slightly reflecting a lower average balance, which was substantially offset by a higher average rate. During the March 2011 quarter we utilized deposits, to a higher degree and relied less on overnight and short-term advances to fund loans.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased as our net interest-earning assets increased. The increase in our net interest-earning assets, interest rate spread and net interest margin was attributable primarily to investment of proceeds from sale of our common stock in loans.

Provision for Loan Losses. We recorded a provision for loan losses of $120,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $1.1 million for the same period in 2010.

Total noninterest income	$	693	$	515	$	178			34.56	%


NM		Not meaningful.

Noninterest Income. Noninterest income increased primarily due to gains on sale of mortgage loans and securities. Our origination, sale and resulting gains on one-to-four family residential loans in the secondary market is dependent upon relative customer demand, which is affected by current and anticipated market interest rates. Gains on sale of securities are not stable sources of income and there is no assurance that the Company will generate such gains in the future.

Service charges decreased as a result of lower NSF charges and other deposit fees, partially offset by higher ATM fees. Other noninterest income increased due to higher fees from sales of investment and insurance products and an increase in the cash surrender value of the BOLI investment.

Total noninterest expense	$	2,575	$	1,985		$	590			29.72	%

Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense increased due primarily to an increase in compensation and benefits, professional and outside services, operations from OREO and other noninterest expense.

Compensation and benefits increased due to reversal of a bonus accrual in the 2010 period, higher salary levels and mortgage commission expenses, partially offset by a higher level of deferred loan origination costs. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, ESOP expense was $11,000. Equipment expense increased due to higher maintenance costs. Data processing decreased as a result of primarily lower costs following a contract renegotiation. Professional and outside services reflects costs associated with the Company’s public filing requirements with the SEC and outside consultant fees incurred for general corporate purposes. FDIC insurance assessments increased as a result of a higher level of deposits. Operations from OREO increased due primarily to real estate taxes incurred on one commercial real estate property. Other noninterest expense increased due primarily to higher legal expenses, charitable contribution expenses and various other corporate expenses.

Income Tax Expense. We recorded an $84,000 income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to a $212,000 income tax benefit for the same period in 2010. Our effective tax rate was 27.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to 39.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily attributable to certain factors, including permanent differences related to tax exempt income consisting of interest on municipal obligations and BOLI income.

Average Balances and Yields

The following tables set forth average balance sheets, average yields and costs, and certain other information for the periods indicated. Tax-equivalent yield adjustments have not been made for tax-exempt securities. All average balances are daily average balances. Nonaccrual loans were included in the computation of average balances, but have been reflected in the table as loans carrying a zero yield. The yields set forth below include the effect of deferred fees, discounts and premiums that are amortized or accreted to interest income or expense.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

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 sales and repayments, advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas, and maturities and sales of securities. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and securities are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition. Our Asset/Liability Management Committee is responsible for establishing and monitoring our liquidity targets and strategies in order to ensure that sufficient liquidity exists for meeting the borrowing needs and deposit withdrawals of our customers as well as unanticipated contingencies. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, our liquidity ratio averaged 14.6%. We believe that we have enough sources of liquidity to satisfy our short- and long-term liquidity needs as of March 31, 2011.

We regularly monitor and adjust our investments in liquid assets based upon our assessment of: (i) expected loan demand; (ii) expected deposit flows; (iii) yields available on interest-earning deposits and securities; and (iv) the objectives of our asset/liability management program. Excess liquid assets are invested generally in interest-earning deposits and short- and intermediate-term securities.

Our most liquid assets are cash and cash equivalents. The levels of these assets are affected by our operating, financing, lending and investing activities during any given period. At March 31, 2011, cash and cash equivalents totaled $21.5 million. Securities classified as available-for-sale, which provide additional sources of liquidity, totaled $24.8 million at March 31, 2011.

Our cash flows are derived from operating activities, investing activities and financing activities as reported in our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows included in our consolidated financial statements.

At March 31, 2011, we had $16.9 million in loan commitments outstanding, including $6.2 million in unused lines of credit to borrowers. Certificates of deposit due within one year of March 31, 2011 totaled $43.3 million, or 20.8% of total deposits. If these deposits do not remain with us, we will be required to seek other sources of funds, including loan sales and Federal Home Loan Bank advances. Depending on market conditions, we may be required to pay higher rates on such deposits or other borrowings than we currently pay on the certificates of deposit due on or before March 31, 2011. We believe, however, that based on past experience, a significant portion of such deposits will remain with us. We have the ability to attract and retain deposits by adjusting the interest rates offered.

Our primary investing activity is originating loans. During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 we originated $30.2 million and $10.9 million of loans, respectively. We purchased $5.8 million and $520,000 of securities during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Financing activities consist primarily of activity in deposit accounts and Federal Home Loan Bank advances. We had a net increase in total deposits of $20.6 million and $19.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Deposit flows are affected by the overall level of interest rates, the interest rates and products offered by us and our local competitors, and by other factors. Borrowings decreased by $3,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and increased by $3,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010.

Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of business management. If we require funds beyond our ability to generate them internally, borrowing agreements exist with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas, which provides an additional source of funds. Federal Home Loan Bank advances were $16.0 million at March 31, 2011 unchanged from December 31, 2010. At March 31, 2011, we had remaining credit available under the FHLB of Dallas program of $107.1 million.

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 March 31, 2011, the Bank exceeded all regulatory capital requirements. The Bank is considered “well capitalized” under regulatory guidelines. See Note 8 — Regulatory Matters of the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Nonperforming Assets

Nonperforming Loans. At March 31, 2011, our nonaccrual loans totaled $1.8 million. The non-accrual loans consisted primarily of one commercial real estate loan and one single-family residential loan. The first loan has an outstanding balance of $531,000 and is secured by a retail center in Sherman, Texas. At March 31, 2011, we had a specific allowance of $136,000 for this loan. This loan is a second lien with the first lien held by another bank with an outstanding balance of $202,000. The borrower has declared bankruptcy and we anticipate buying out the first lien on the property and foreclosing in the second quarter of 2011. The second loan has an outstanding balance of $559,000 and is secured by a residential property located in Orlando, Florida. At March 31, 2011, we had a specific allowance of $53,000 for this loan and had commenced foreclosure proceedings on the property.

For the three months ended March 31, 2011, gross interest income that would have been recorded had our non-accruing loans been current in accordance with their original terms was $57,000. Interest income recognized on such loans for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $2,000.

At March 31, 2011, we had a total of 26 loans that were not currently classified as nonaccrual, 90 days past due or troubled debt restructurings, but where known information about possible credit problems of borrowers caused management to have serious concerns as to the ability of the borrowers to comply with present loan repayment terms and that could result in disclosure as nonaccrual, 90 days past due or troubled debt restructurings.

All of these loans are being monitored on our Watch List at March 31, 2011. Eight of these loans are automobile loans, with an aggregate loan balance of $34,000, and were made to individuals who have declared personal bankruptcy. Thirteen of these loans, with an aggregate balance of $1.4 million, are collateralized by one- to four-family residential mortgages of borrowers who have, on occasion, been late with scheduled payments. Three of these loans, consisting of two commercial business loans and one consumer loan totaling $259,000, are to a specific borrower who has experienced financial difficulties over the past two years but had continued to show a commitment to repay his obligations. Recently, the borrower has requested additional concessions which are currently under evaluation. Two of these loans are commercial real estate loans totaling $3.5 million secured by land and were current at March 31, 2011. Concerns generally stem from the nature of the collateral and the lack of commercial sales activity in the market. Of these two loans, one loan is collateralized by a building with a principal loan balance of $1.6 million. The borrower is actively working to re-tenant the building after the prior tenant filed bankruptcy in October, 2010. However management has increased monitoring on the loan, which is current according to its terms. The other loan is secured by commercial real estate totaling $1.9 million which has been impacted by slow leasing activity and rental rates below original projections at the time of origination. This loan is current and continues to maintain significant interest reserves at the Bank.

Troubled Debt Restructurings. Troubled debt restructurings include loans for which either a portion of interest or principal has been forgiven, or for loans modified at interest rates or on terms materially less favorable than current market rates. We periodically modify loans to extend the term or make other concessions to help a borrower stay current on their loan and to avoid foreclosure. We generally do not forgive principal or interest on loans or modify the interest rates on loans to rates that are below market rates. At March 31, 2011, we had $6.1 million of troubled debt restructurings (not included in nonaccrual loans) related to 17 consumer loans totaling $135,000, five residential loans totaling $684,000 and three commercial real estate loans totaling $5.3 million. The three commercial real estate loans were modified during the first quarter of 2011, and included significant principal reductions as well as interest rate reductions on each loan. Management believes these modifications will allow for continued performance and additional time to market the properties, and recent appraisals on the properties indicate that the loans are adequately collateralized. Of this $6.1 million in troubled debt restructurings (not included in nonaccrual loans), 5 loans totaling $30,000 were past due between 30-89 days.

Other Real Estate Owned. At March 31, 2011, we had $1.8 million in other real estate owned, consisting of undeveloped land, with a carrying value of $1.5 million and two single-family dwellings.

Classification of Assets. Assets that do not expose us to risk sufficient to warrant classification, but which possess potential weaknesses that deserve our close attention, are required to be designated as special mention. As of March 31, 2011, we had $3.8 million of assets designated as special mention with specific allowance of $0.

When we classify assets as either substandard or doubtful, we allocate a portion of the related general loss allowances to such assets as we deem prudent. The allowance for loan losses is the amount estimated by management as necessary to absorb credit losses incurred in the loan portfolio that are both probable and reasonably estimable at the balance sheet date. When we classify a problem asset as doubtful, we charge the asset off. For other classified assets, we provide a specific allowance for that portion of the asset that is considered uncollectible. Our determination as to the classification of our assets and the amount of our loss allowances are subject to review by our principal federal regulator, the Office of Thrift Supervision, which can require that we establish additional loss allowances. We regularly review our asset portfolio to determine whether any assets require classification in accordance with applicable regulations. On the basis of our review of our assets at March 31, 2011, substandard assets consisted of loans of $9.6 million with specific allowance of $411,000 and other real estate owned of $1.8 million. There were no doubtful or loss assets at March 31, 2011.

As of March 31, 2011, our largest substandard asset was a $2.0 million commercial real estate loan collateralized by 119 acres of raw land located in Celina, Texas. The loan was originated in February 2008 to a developer who purchased the property for residential development. The land was appraised at $4.4 million in early 2008 with a loan to cost value of 67% at the time the loan was originated. The land was re-appraised in April 2010 for $2.6 million, and at that date no sales had occurred due to the general market downturn. The loan was originally structured on a five-year term, with interest payable quarterly and a minimum 5% principal reduction, from sales or investor contribution, due at the end of each of years 3 and 4. This loan was modified in March of 2011, and the borrower reduced the principal by $105,000. Terms were further modified to allow for continued performance and additional time to market the property. Following the loan modification, management also identified this loan as a troubled debt restructuring.

Allowance for Loan Losses

Analysis and Determination of the Allowance for Loan Losses. Our allowance for loan losses is the amount considered necessary to reflect probable incurred losses in our loan portfolio. We evaluate the need to establish allowances against losses on loans on a quarterly basis. When additional allowances are necessary, a provision for loan losses is charged to earnings.

Our methodology for assessing the appropriateness of the allowance for loan losses consists of two key elements: (1) specific allowances for impaired loans; and (2) a general valuation allowance on the remainder of the loan portfolio. Although we determine the amount of each element of the allowance separately, the entire allowance for loan losses is available for the entire portfolio.

Specific Allowances for Identified Problem Loans. We establish a specific allowance when loans are determined to be impaired. Loss is measured by determining the present value of expected future cash flows or, for collateral-dependent loans, the fair value of the collateral adjusted for market conditions and selling expenses. Factors in identifying a specific problem loan include: (1) the strength of the customer’s personal or business cash flows; (2) the availability of other sources of repayment; (3) the amount due or past due; (4) the type and value of collateral; (5) the strength of our collateral position; (6) the estimated cost to sell the collateral; and (7) the borrower’s effort to cure the delinquency. In addition, for loans secured by real estate, we consider the extent of any past due and unpaid property taxes applicable to the property serving as collateral on the mortgage.

General Valuation Allowance on the Remainder of the Loan Portfolio. We establish a general allowance for loans that are not evaluated for impairment to recognize the inherent losses associated with lending activities, but which, unlike specific allowances, has not been allocated to particular problem assets. This general valuation allowance is determined by segregating the loans by loan category and assigning allowance percentages based on our historical loss experience, adjusted for qualitative factors that could impact the allowance for loan losses. These qualitative factors may include changes in lending policies and procedures, existing general economic and business conditions affecting our primary market area, credit quality trends, collateral value, loan volumes and concentrations, seasoning of the loan portfolio, recent loss experience in particular segments of the portfolio, duration of the current business cycle and bank regulatory examination results. The applied loss factors are re-evaluated quarterly to ensure their relevance in the current real estate environment. Although our policy allows for a general valuation allowance on certain smaller-balance, homogenous pools of loans classified as substandard, we have historically evaluated every loan classified as substandard, regardless of size, for impairment in establishing a specific allowance.

In addition, as an integral part of their examination process, the Office of Thrift Supervision will periodically review our allowance for loan losses. Such agency may require that we recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgments of information available to them at the time of their examination.

The allowance for loan losses decreased $376,000, or 17.6%, to $1.8 million at March 31, 2011 from $2.1 million at December 31, 2010. In addition, the allowance for loan losses to total loans receivable decreased to 0.90% at March 31, 2011 as compared to 1.09% at December 31, 2010. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of nonperforming loans decreased to 21.5% at March 31, 2011 from 39.2% at December 31, 2010. The decline was attributable primarily to the partial charge-off of a loan secured by undeveloped land, which was foreclosed in February 2011. Substandard loans decreased to $9.6 million at March 31, 2011 from $12.1 million at December 31, 2010. Nonperforming loans, including troubled debt restructurings not included in nonaccrual loans, increased to $8.2 million at March 31, 2011 from $5.4 million at December 31, 2010 resulting primarily from an increase in troubled debt restructurings of $5.1 million related to three commercial real estate loans, deemed to be adequately collateralized, and a $2.6 million decrease in nonaccrual loans. Nonperforming loans are evaluated to determine impairment.

Impaired loans with specific valuation allowances were $1.6 million at March 31, 2011, and the related specific valuation allowance for loan losses was $411,000. Impaired loans without specific valuation allowances were $6.1 million at March 31, 2011.

To the best of our knowledge, we have provided for all losses that are both probable and reasonable to estimate at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

Appraisals are performed by a rotating list of independent, certified appraisers to obtain fair values on non-homogenous loans secured by real estate. The appraisals are generally obtained when market conditions change, annually for criticized loans, and at the time a loan becomes impaired.

We periodically evaluate the carrying value of loans and the allowance is adjusted accordingly. While we use the best information available to make evaluations, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if conditions differ substantially from the information used in making the evaluations.

There were no changes in our nonaccrual or charge-off policies during the three months ended March 31, 2011 or 2010. The accrual of interest on loans is discontinued at the time the loan is 90 days delinquent unless the credit is well secured and in the process of collection. Loans are placed on nonaccrual status or charged-off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful.

All interest accrued but not collected for loans, including troubled debt restructurings, that are placed on nonaccrual status or charged off is reversed against interest income. The interest on these loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery method, 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.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Aggregate Contractual Obligations

Commitments. As a financial services provider, we routinely are a party to various financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risks, such as commitments to extend credit and unused lines of credit. While these contractual obligations represent our future cash requirements, a significant portion of commitments to extend credit may expire without being drawn upon. Such commitments are subject to the same credit policies and approval process accorded to loans we make. For additional information, see Note 7 — Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk of the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Contractual Obligations. In the ordinary course of our operations, we enter into certain contractual obligations. Such obligations include operating leases for premises and equipment, agreements with respect to borrowed funds and deposit liabilities.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices

Our consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. U.S. GAAP generally requires the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without consideration of changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of our operations. Unlike industrial companies, our assets and liabilities are primarily monetary in nature. As a result, changes in market interest rates have a greater impact on performance than the effects of inflation.
