BofI HOLDING, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2009 AND 2008

(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)

(Unaudited)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of BofI Holding, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Bank of Internet USA (the “Bank” and collectively with BofI Holding Inc., the “Company”). All significant intercompany balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements, presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), are unaudited and reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair statement of financial condition and results of operations for the interim periods. All adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. Results for the nine months ended March 31, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the year as a whole. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes for the year ended June 30, 2008 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior-period financial statements to conform to the current period presentation.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Investment Securities—We classify investment securities as either trading, available-for-sale or held to maturity. Trading securities are those securities for which we have elected fair value accounting in accordance with SFAS No. 159, see footnote 8. Trading securities are recorded at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in earnings each period. Securities available for sale are reported at estimated fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of the related tax effects, excluded from operations and reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income or loss. The fair values of securities traded in active markets are obtained from market quotes. If quoted prices in active markets are not available, we determine the fair value from our internal pricing models. Securities that management has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as “held to maturity” and recorded at amortized cost. Amortization of purchase premiums and accretion of discounts on securities are recorded as yield adjustments on such securities using the effective interest method. The specific identification method is used for purposes of determining cost in computing realized gains and losses on investment securities sold.

At each reporting date, we monitor our available-for-sale and held to maturity securities for other-than-temporary impairment. Other-than-temporary impairment losses are recognized in noninterest income with a corresponding reduction in the carrying value of the investment.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2008, the Bank transferred certain investment securities purchased at discount prices into the Bank of Internet Resecuritization Trust (“BIRT”) controlled by its parent, BofI Holding, Inc. The Bank received from BIRT the equivalent book value of notes restructured from the cash flows of the investment securities transferred. The purpose of the transfer was to provide the Bank with investment securities rated AAA or AA by two national rating agencies reflecting the additional credit support created by discount purchase prices. There was no gain or loss recognized upon the transfer as the Company retains all ownership rights and risks related to the investment securities. The BIRT and related securities are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Allowance for Loan Losses—The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level estimated to provide for probable incurred losses in the loan portfolio. Management determines the adequacy of the allowance based on reviews of individual loans and pools of loans, recent loss experience, current economic conditions, the risk characteristics of the various categories of loans and other pertinent factors. This evaluation is inherently subjective and requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. The allowance is increased by the provision for loan losses, which is charged against current period operating results and recoveries of loans previously charged-off. The allowance is decreased by the amount of charge-offs of loans deemed uncollectible.

Under the allowance for loan loss policy, impairment calculations are determined based on general portfolio data for general reserves and loan level data for specific reserves. Specific loans are evaluated for impairment and are generally classified as nonperforming or in foreclosure when they are 90 days or more delinquent. A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Bank will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include

Table of Contents

payment status, collateral value and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral if repayment of the loan is expected primarily from the sale of collateral.

General loan loss reserves are calculated by grouping each loan by collateral type and by grouping the loan-to-value ratios of each loan within the collateral type. An estimated allowance rate for each loan-to-value group within each type of loan is multiplied by the total principal amount in the group to calculate the required general reserve attributable to that group. Management uses an allowance rate that provides a larger loss allowance for loans with greater loan-to-value ratios. Specific reserves are calculated when an internal asset review of a loan identifies a significant adverse change in the financial position of the borrower or the value of the collateral. The specific reserve is based on discounted cash flows, observable market prices or the estimated value of underlying collateral.

New Accounting Pronouncements—In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Statement No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS No. 157”). This Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement establishes a fair value hierarchy about the assumptions used to measure fair value and clarifies assumptions about risk and the effect of a restriction on the sale or use of an asset. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company adopted SFAS No. 157 on July 1, 2008, see footnote 8 for further information.

In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, (“SFAS No. 159”). This Statement allows entities to voluntarily choose, at specified election dates, to measure any financial assets and financial liabilities (as well as certain non-financial instruments that are similar to financial instruments) at fair value. The election is made on an instrument-by-instrument basis and is irrevocable. The Statement is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. In February 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position (FSP) 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157. This FSP delays the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value on a recurring basis (at least annually) to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. In October 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position (FSP) 157-3, Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset is Not Active (“FSP 157-3”). This FSP clarifies the application of SFAS No. 157 in a market that is not active and provides example disclosures for use in such instances. It is effective upon issuance. The Company adopted SFAS No. 159 on July 1, 2008 and FSP 157-3 upon issuance, see footnote 8 for further information.

In September 2006, the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force finalized Issue No. 06-4, Accounting for Deferred Compensation and Postretirement Benefit Aspects of Endorsement Split-Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements (“EITF 06-4”). This issue requires that a liability be recorded during the service period when a split-dollar life insurance agreement continues after participants’ employment or retirement. The required accrued liability will be based on either the post-employment benefit cost for the continuing life insurance or based on the future death benefit depending on the contractual terms of the underlying agreement. This issue is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007. The adoption of this EITF did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In April 2009, the FASB issued Staff Position (FSP) No. 115-2 and No. 124-2, Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments, which amends existing guidance for determining whether impairment is other-than-temporary for debt securities. The FSP requires an entity to assess whether it intends to sell, or it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell a security in an unrealized loss position before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either of these criteria is met, the entire difference between amortized cost and fair value is recognized in earnings. For securities that do not meet the aforementioned criteria, the amount of impairment recognized in earnings is limited to the amount related to credit losses, while impairment related to other factors is recognized in other comprehensive income. Additionally, the FSP expands and increases the frequency of existing disclosures about other-than-temporary impairments for debt and equity securities. This FSP is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. The Company plans to adopt this FSP in the fourth quarter and does not expect the adoption to have a material effect on the results of operations or financial position.

In April 2009, the FASB issued Staff Position (FSP) No. 157-4, Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset and Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly. This FSP emphasizes that even if there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity, the objective of a fair value measurement remains the same. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction (that is, not a forced liquidation or distressed sale) between market participants. The FSP provides a number of factors to consider when evaluating whether there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for an asset or liability in relation to

Table of Contents

normal market activity. In addition, when transactions or quoted prices are not considered orderly, adjustments to those prices based on the weight of available information may be needed to determine the appropriate fair value. The FSP also requires increased disclosures. This FSP is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, and shall be applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. The Company plans to adopt this FSP in the fourth quarter and does not expect the adoption to have a material effect on the results of operations or financial position.

In April 2009, the FASB issued Staff Position (FSP) No. 107-1 and APB 28-1, Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments. This FSP amends FASB Statement No. 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, to require disclosures about fair value of financial instruments for interim reporting periods of publicly traded companies that were previously only required in annual financial statements. This FSP is effective for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. The Company plans to adopt this FSP in the fourth quarter.

3. ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSS

We are committed to maintaining the allowance for loan losses at a level that is considered to be commensurate with estimated and known risks in the portfolio. Although the adequacy of the allowance is reviewed quarterly, our management performs an ongoing assessment of the risks inherent in the portfolio. While we believe that the allowance for loan losses is adequate at March 31, 2009, future additions to the allowance will be subject to continuing evaluation of estimated and known, as well as inherent, risks in the loan portfolio.

The assessment of the adequacy of our allowance for loan losses is based upon a number of quantitative and qualitative factors, including levels and trends of past due and nonaccrual loans, change in volume and mix of loans, collateral values and charge-off history.

We provide general loan loss reserves for our RV and auto loans based upon the borrower credit score at the time of origination and our loss experience to date. We provide general loan loss reserves for our mortgage loans based upon the size and type of the mortgage loan and the loan-to-value ratio. For the nine months ended March 31, 2009, we have experienced increased charge-offs. If we continue to experience an increase in charge-offs relative to the loan portfolio size, we may be required to increase our loan loss provisions in the future to provide a larger loss allowance.

The following table summarizes activity in the allowance for loan losses for the nine months ended March 31, 2009:

Non-agency debt securities are trust preferred collateralized debt.

The net unrealized gain of $2,847 on available for sale securities at March 31, 2009 included gross unrealized gains of $3,219 and gross unrealized losses of $372. The net unrealized loss of $12,335 on held to maturity securities at March 31, 2009 included gross unrealized gains of $21,874 and gross unrealized losses of $34,209. When available, fair values for investment securities are obtained from quoted prices on active markets otherwise fair values are determined by the Company in accordance with GAAP as discussed in footnote 8.

The Company monitors securities in its held to maturity and available for sale investment portfolios for other-than-temporary impairment. Impairment may result from factors including credit deterioration and changes in market rates relative to the interest rate of the instrument. The Company considers many factors in determining whether impairment is other than temporary, including but not limited to the length of time the security has had a fair value less than the cost basis, the severity of the unrealized loss, the Company’s intent and ability to hold the security for a period of time sufficient for a recovery in value, issuer specific factors such as the issuer’s financial condition, external credit ratings and general market conditions.

Table of Contents

Recently liquidity and economic uncertainty have increased the volatility of market pricing for mortgage-backed securities and collateralized debt securities. Although the fair value will fluctuate, the majority of the Company’s investment portfolio consists of mortgage-backed securities from government agencies and non-agency senior mortgage-backed securities acquired by the Company at discounts to current face values. If held to maturity, the contractual principal and interest payments of these securities are expected to be received in full recovery of net book value. No loss of net book value is expected over the lives of these securities and the Company has the ability and intent to hold these securities until they mature or for a period of time sufficient to allow for a recovery in the fair value. The determination of whether a decline in market value is other-than-temporary is necessarily a matter of subjective judgment.

5. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Compensation cost is recognized for stock options and restricted stock awards issued to employees, based on the fair value of these awards at the date of grant. A Black-Scholes model is utilized to estimate the fair value of stock options, while the market price of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant is used for restricted stock awards. Compensation cost is recognized over the required service period, generally defined as the vesting period. For awards with graded vesting, compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award.

The Company has two stock incentive plans, the 2004 Stock Incentive Plan (“2004 Plan”) and the 1999 Stock Option Plan (“1999 Plan,” and, together with the 2004 Plan, the “Plans”), which provide for the granting of non-qualified and incentive stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights and other awards to employees, directors and consultants. The Company terminated the 1999 Plan in November 2007 and no new option awards will be made under the 1999 Plan.

Stock Options— The Company’s income before income taxes for the quarters ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 included stock option compensation expense of $13 and $206, with a total income tax benefit of $5 and $84, respectively. For the nine months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 stock option compensation expense was $162 and $400, respectively, with a total income tax benefit of $66 and $164, respectively. At March 31, 2009, unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested stock option grants aggregated $98 which is expected to be recognized in future periods as follows:

The aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding and options exercisable under the Plans at March 31, 2009 and 2008 were $436 and $656, respectively.

Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units— Under the Company’s 2004 Plan, employees and directors are eligible to receive grants of restricted stock and restricted stock units. The Company determines stock-based compensation expense using the fair value method required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R), Share-based Payment, (“SFAS No. 123(R)”). In accordance with SFAS No. 123(R), the fair value of restricted stock and restricted stock units is equal to the closing sale price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant.

During the quarters ended September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2008, the Company’s Board of Directors granted 37,685 and 3,650 restricted stock units respectively, to employees and directors. All restricted stock unit awards granted during these quarters vest over three years, one-third on each anniversary date.

The Company’s income before income taxes for the quarters ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 included restricted stock compensation expense of $87 and $83, respectively, with a total income tax benefit of $36 and $34, respectively. For the nine months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 restricted stock compensation expense was $263 and $155, respectively, with a total income tax benefit of $106 and $64, respectively. The Company recognizes compensation expense based upon the grant-date fair value divided equally across the service periods between each vesting date. At March 31, 2009, unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested grants aggregated $694 and is expected to be recognized in future periods as follows:

7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Credit-Related Financial Instruments — The Company is a party to credit-related financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. At March 31, 2009, the Company had $31.7 million in commitments to originate or purchase loans and investment securities and $22.6 million in commitments to sell loans.

8. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

As discussed in footnote 2, effective July 1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS No. 157 and upon issuance, adopted FSP 157-3, which provides a framework for measuring fair value under GAAP.

Table of Contents

The Company also adopted SFAS No. 159 on July 1, 2008. SFAS No. 159 allows an entity the irrevocable option to elect fair value for the initial and subsequent measurement for certain financial assets and liabilities on a contract-by-contract basis. The Company elected to adopt the fair value option for trust preferred collateralized debt on the adoption date. SFAS No. 159 requires that the difference between the carrying value before election of the fair value option and the fair value of these instruments be recorded as an adjustment to beginning retained earnings in the period of adoption.

Management believes the adoption of SFAS No. 159 for certain financial instruments will provide the users of its financial statements with transparent and relevant financial information that provides better insight into the Company’s risk management activities. Application of SFAS No. 159 and its disclosure requirements for financial instruments elected to be carried at fair value expands the transparency of risk management activities and eliminates or reduces the obstacles presented by complex accounting standards related to hedging investment securities and other financial instruments.

The following table summarizes the impact of adopting the fair value option for certain financial instruments on July 1, 2008. Amounts shown represent the carrying value of the affected instruments before and after the changes in accounting resulting from the adoption SFAS No. 159.

Fair Value Measurement

The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain financial instruments. Trading securities and securities available for sale are financial instruments recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company may be required to record at fair value other financial assets on a nonrecurring basis such as loans held for sale and impaired loans. These nonrecurring fair value adjustments involve the application of lower of cost or market accounting.

SFAS No. 157 defines fair value as the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. SFAS No. 157 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

 

Level 1:    Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 1 assets and liabilities include debt and equity securities that are traded in an active exchange market, as well as certain U.S. treasury, other U.S. Government and agency mortgage-backed debt securities that are highly liquid and are actively traded in over-the-counter markets.
Level 2:    Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Level 2 assets and liabilities include securities with quoted prices that are traded less frequently than exchange-traded instruments, securities and derivative contracts and financial liabilities whose value is determined using a pricing model with inputs that are observable in the market or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3:    Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models such as discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

Determination of Fair Value

Securities trading

Trading securities are recorded at fair value. Recent liquidity and economic uncertainty have significantly disrupted the market for collateralized debt securities. As quoted market prices are not available, the fair values for these securities are determined by the Company utilizing internally developed pricing models. The Company’s process considers actual and forecasted default rates, and other individual characteristics of the specific assets comprising the securities as well as the structural subordination and overcollateralization characteristics of the securities to estimate future cash flows and select discount rates to calculate each security’s fair value. Due to the current market conditions as well as the limited trading activity of these securities, the market value of these securities is highly sensitive to changes in the assumptions in the Company’s pricing model.

Securities available for sale

Available for sale securities are recorded at fair value and consist of mortgage-backed securities—U.S. agency. Fair value is generally based on quoted market prices. If these market prices are not available, fair values are estimated based on dealer quotes, pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies. At March 31, 2009 these instruments were valued using market prices or significant other observable inputs.

Impaired Loans

The fair value of impaired loans with specific write-offs is generally based on recent real estate appraisals or other third-party valuations and analysis of cash flows. These appraisals and analyses may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and income approaches. Adjustments are routinely made in the process by the appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are typically significant and result in a Level 3 classification for the inputs for determining fair value.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto, have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make a number of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions based upon historical experience and various factors and circumstances. We believe that our estimates and assumptions are reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual results may differ significantly from these estimates and assumptions that could have a material effect on the carrying value of assets and liabilities at the balance sheet dates and our results of operations for the reporting periods.

Our significant accounting policies and practices are described in greater detail in Note 1 to our June 30, 2008 audited consolidated financial statements and under the caption “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Critical Accounting Policies” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – Comparison of the Three Months and Nine Months Ended March 31, 2009 and 2008

For the three months ended March 31, 2009, we had net income of $2,594,000 compared to net income of $1,018,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2008. Net income attributable to common stock holders was $2,421,000 or $0.30 per diluted share compared to $940,000 or $0.11 per diluted share for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Other key comparisons between our operating results for the quarters ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 are:

 

   

Net interest income increased $3,814,000 in the 2009 quarter due to a 13.4% increase in average earning assets primarily from loan pool purchases and mortgage-backed securities. In addition, our net interest margin increased 106 basis points in the quarter ended March 31, 2009 compared to March 31, 2008, as the earning rates on loans increased while the rates paid on time deposits and borrowings decreased.

 

   

The loan loss provision was $1,200,000 for the March 31, 2009 quarter compared to $835,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2008. The increased loan loss provision was due primarily to the growth in our loan portfolio, general declines in housing values and increased charge-offs on RV loans.

 

   

Non-interest income decreased $723,000 for the March 31, 2009 quarter compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2008. During the March 31, 2009 quarter, we recorded a fair value loss to our trading securities of $350,000 and had $528,000 in gain on sale of single family first mortgages. A gain of $881,000 was recorded on the sale of government agency mortgage backed-securities in the March 31, 2008 quarter.

For the nine months ended March 31, 2009, we had net income of $3,538,000 compared to net income of $2,416,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2008. Net income attributable to common stockholders was $3,021,000, or $0.37 per diluted share compared to $2,184,000, or $0.26 per diluted share for the nine months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Excluding the impact of a one-time loss on our investment in Fannie Mae preferred stock, we would have earned $8,248,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2009, up $5,832,000 or 241.4% compared to the nine months ended March 2008. As a result of the U.S. Government’s decision to place Fannie Mae in conservatorship and to suspend dividends to shareholders, our earnings were reduced by an after tax loss of $4,710,000 due to the sale of our investment in Fannie Mae preferred stock. On September 7, 2008, the U.S. Treasury, the Federal Reserve and the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) announced that the FHFA was putting Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac under conservatorship and giving management control to their regulator, the FHFA. The U.S. Treasury also announced that dividends on Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac common and preferred stock were eliminated. Based upon the government’s decision, we sold our investment in Fannie Mae Preferred stock on September 8, 2008 at a pre-tax loss of $7,902,000.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 totaled $8.5 million, an 80.9% increase compared to net interest income of $4.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2008. For the nine months ended March 31, 2009, net interest income was $25.1 million, up $14.0 million or 126.1% compared to the $11.1 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2008.

Total interest and dividend income during the quarter ended March 31, 2009 increased 14.2% to $18.5 million, compared to $16.2 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2008. For the nine months ended March 31, 2009, total interest and dividend income increased 27.7% to $57.2 million, compared to $44.8 million for the nine months ended in 2008. The increase in interest and dividend income for the quarter and the nine months was attributable primarily to growth in average earning assets from purchases of investment securities and loans. The average balance of investment securities (primarily mortgage-backed securities) increased 13.6% and 18.5% when compared for the three-month and the nine-month periods ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The increase in interest income was also the result of our higher rates earned on new loans originated and purchased, amortization of discounts on purchases of loan pools as well as higher rates on new non-agency mortgage-backed securities purchased. The loan portfolio yield for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 increased 63 basis points offset by the investment security portfolio yield decrease of 41 basis points. The net growth in average earning assets for the three-month and the nine-month periods was funded largely by increased demand and savings accounts and increased short-term borrowings. Total interest expense decreased 12.2% to $10.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 compared with $11.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2008. For the nine months ended March 31, 2009, total interest expense decreased 4.5% to $32.2 million compared to $33.7 million for the nine months ended in 2008. The average funding rate decreased by 89 basis points for the nine-month comparison, despite a 17.3% growth in average balances. Contributing to the decrease in the average funding rate were decreases in the average rates for time deposits of 53 basis points, decreases in the average funding rates of demand and savings accounts of 82 basis points and decreases in the average rates of FHLB advances of 109 basis points when compared for the nine-month periods ended March 31, 2009 and 2008. Net interest margin, defined as net interest income divided by average earning assets, increased by 106 basis points to 2.82% for the quarter ended March 31, 2009, compared with 1.76% for the quarter ended March 31, 2008.

The improvement in the net interest margin has resulted from specific actions we have taken to manage our assets and liabilities, as well as general changes in the U.S. Treasury yield curve and loan risk premiums. Our specific actions include selling our agency mortgage-backed securities and replacing them with higher yielding loans and non-agency mortgage backed securities. In addition, we have lowered our deposit offering rates in an effort to take advantage of lower borrowing rates tied to U.S. Treasury rates. Since March of 2008, the Federal Reserve has reduced the short-term Fed funds rate by 200 basis points, to a range of 0.00 to 0.25% as of March 31, 2009. The rate cuts have reduced and will likely continue to reduce both our cost of funding through lower short-term borrowing rates and interest income on floating rate loans and securities.

Analysis of Changes in Net Interest Income

Changes in net interest income are a function of changes in rates and volumes of both interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The following table presents information regarding changes in interest income and interest expense for the periods indicated. The total change for each category of interest-earning asset and interest-bearing liability is segmented into the change attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior rate), the change attributable to variations in interest rates (changes in rates multiplied by old volume) and the change attributable to changes in rate/volume (change in rate multiplied by the change in volume):

Provision for Loan Losses

The loan loss provision was $1,200,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2009, compared to $835,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2008. For the nine months ended March 31, 2009, loan loss provisions totaled $2,830,000 compared to $1,104,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2008. The increased provisions for the quarter and the nine months ended March 31, 2009 were the result of loan growth, continued changes in portfolio mix and higher estimated losses from our recreational vehicle portfolio and real estate loan portfolios. Provisions for loan losses are charged to income to bring the allowance for loan losses to a level deemed appropriate by management based on the factors discussed under the “Allowance for Loan Losses” section of this report.

Non-interest income for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 decreased $723,000 to $300,000 compared to $1,023,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2008. For the nine months ended March 31, 2009, non-interest income decreased $9.4 million. The decrease in non-interest income for the nine month period ended March 31, 2009 was primarily the result of selling $9.1 million in FNMA preferred stock resulting in a loss of $7.9 million and recording a fair value adjustment to our trading securities for a loss of $695,000.

Efficiency ratio represents noninterest expense as a percentage of the aggregate of net interest income and noninterest income. For the nine months ended March 31, 2009, without the loss of $7.902 million in noninterest income due to the loss on sale of FNMA preferred stock, the efficiency ratio would have been 34.2%.

Non-interest expense, which is comprised primarily of compensation, data processing and internet expenses, occupancy and other operating expenses, was $3.2 million and $8.7 million for the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2009, up from $3.1 million and $7.7 million for the three months and the nine months ended March 31, 2008.

Total salaries, benefits and stock-based compensation decreased $257,000 to $1,402,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 compared to $1,659,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2008. Excluding the one time charges of $352,000 recorded in 2008 related to the change in employment agreement for the Bank’s president, total compensation increased $95,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2009, primarily related to staffing changes in the consumer lending business and a 3.6% average increase to salaries and wages.

The Bank’s staff increased from 50 to 51 full-time equivalents between March 31, 2008 and 2009. For the nine months ended March 31, 2009, compensation increased $290,000, which is primarily related to staff increases in the consumer lending business, excluding the one time charges of $352,000 related to the change in employment agreement for the Bank president.

Professional services, which include accounting and legal fees, increased $65,000 for the quarter and $515,000 for the nine-months ended March 31, 2009 comparison with the prior year periods. The increase in professional services for the period ended March 31, 2009 was primarily due to contract underwriters used in connection with loan pool purchases, set-up of 1st mortgage and multifamily loan products and legal and ratings fees due to the re-securitization of our non-agency mortgage backed securities.

Advertising and promotion expense decreased $28,000 and $251,000 for the three-month and nine-month periods ending March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The decrease for the nine month period was primarily due to a decrease in internet advertising and lead acquisitions for home equity loans of $433,000 offset by an increase of $213,000 for lead acquisitions for our first mortgage loan origination program.

Data processing and internet expense increased $43,000 and $103,000 for the three-month and nine-month periods ending March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The increases for the three month and nine month periods were primarily due to an increase in the number of customer accounts and fees for special enhancements to the Bank’s core processing system.

The cost of our FDIC and OTS standard regulatory charges decreased $38,000 for the three-month period and increased $43,000 for the nine-month periods ending March 31, 2009 and 2008 due to a one-time adjustment in the quarter ended March 31, 2008 offset by higher average deposit balances and higher assessment rates for the periods ended March 31, 2009. As an FDIC-insured institution, the Bank is required to pay deposit insurance premiums to the FDIC. Because the FDIC’s deposit insurance fund fell below prescribed levels in 2008, the FDIC has announced increased premiums for all insured depository institutions, including the Bank, in order to begin recapitalizing the fund. Insurance assessments range from 0.12% to 0.50% of total deposits for the first calendar quarter 2009 assessment; this resulted in an additional expense of $120,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2009. Effective April 1, 2009, insurance assessments will range from 0.07% to 0.78%, depending on an institution’s risk classification and other factors. In addition, under a proposed rule, the FDIC indicated its plans to impose a 20 basis point emergency assessment on insured depository institutions to be paid on September 30, 2009, based on deposits at June 30, 2009. FDIC representatives subsequently indicated the amount of this special assessment could decrease if certain events transpire. The proposed rule would also authorize the FDIC to impose an additional emergency assessment of up to 10 basis points after June 30, 2009, if necessary to maintain public confidence in federal deposit insurance. These changes will result in increased deposit insurance expense for the Bank in the period of enactment.

Other general and administrative expense increased $246,000 during the quarter and $549,000 for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2009 compared to the same periods in 2008, primarily due to an increase in loan fees and REO losses.

Provision for Income Taxes

Our effective income tax rates (income tax provision divided by net income before income tax) for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 were 40.84% and 40.50%, respectively. Our effective income tax rates for the nine months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 were 40.45% and 40.42%, respectively.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Balance Sheet Analysis

Our total assets increased $55.0 million, or 4.6%, to $1,249.2 million, as of March 31, 2009, up from $1,194.2 million at June 30, 2008. The increase in total assets was primarily due to an increase of $52.1 million in investment securities, an increase in loans held for sale of $1.3 million and an increase in other assets of $14.0 million, offset by a decrease of $3.9 million in loans held for investment and a decrease in Fed Fund sold of $6.3 million. Total liabilities increased a total of $52.8 million, primarily due to an increase in deposits of $123.3 million and an increase in borrowings of $20.0 million from the Federal Reserve Discount Window, offset with a decrease of $88.0 million in borrowing from the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco.

Loans

Net loans held for investment decreased to $627.5 million at March 31, 2009 from $631.4 million at June 30, 2008. The decrease in the loan portfolio was due to loan repayments of $77.2 million, transfers to foreclosed real estate of $8.4 million and purchase discounts of $9.8 million offset by originations and loan pool purchases of $93.1 million during the nine months ended March 31, 2009.

The Bank originates and purchases mortgage loans with terms that may include repayments that are less than the repayments for fully amortizing loans, including interest only loans, option adjustable-rate mortgages, and other loan types that permit payments that may be smaller than interest accruals. Through March 31, 2009, the net amount of deferred interest on these loan types was not material to the financial position or operating results of the Company.

Asset Quality and Allowance for Loan Loss

Nonperforming Assets

Nonperforming loans are comprised of nonaccrual loans, loans past due 90 days or more and on nonaccrual and troubled debt restructured loans. Nonperforming assets include nonperforming loans plus other foreclosed real estate or assets owned, net. At March 31, 2009, our nonperforming loans totaled $1,906,000, or 0.30% of total gross loans and our total nonperforming assets totaled $7,628,000, or 0.61% of total assets.

Total nonperforming assets increased a net $3.0 million between June 30, 2008 and March 31, 2009. The majority of the increase was the result of two nonperforming multifamily loans totaling $3.2 million. The two multifamily loans are now in foreclosures with values of $2.2 million and $1.0 million and are secured by 210 units in Cincinnati Ohio, and 20 units in Miami, Florida. Nonperforming and repossessed RV loans increased from $0.3 million at June 30, 2008 to $1.1 million at March 31, 2009. In February 2009, the Bank sold a foreclosed commercial building for $1.1 million, partially reducing the increase in our nonperforming assets. The increased level of nonperforming real estate loans reflects the nationwide downturn in real estate values. The increased level of nonperforming RV loans reflects the current nationwide recession. If real estate values continue to decline and consumer job losses continue to increase, we are likely to experience continued growth of our nonperforming assets.

At March 31, 2009, the carrying value of impaired loans is net of write-offs of $345,000 and there are no specific allowance allocations. The average carrying value of impaired loans was $2,953,000 and $407,000 for the quarters ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The interest income recognized during the periods of impairment is insignificant for those loans impaired at March 31, 2009 or 2008. Loans past due 90 days or more which were still accruing interest were $1,385,000 at March 31, 2009 and $656,000 at June 30, 2008. Loans past due 90 days and still accruing interest are certain single family mortgages from which we both received advanced payments from the loan servicing company and we determined that such loans are not impaired based upon a current fair value analysis of the collateral.

The Bank has no loans which are considered a troubled debt restructuring at March 31, 2009. A troubled debt restructuring is a performing loan with permanent modifications of principal and interest payments or an extension of maturity dates. Under these

arrangements, loan terms are typically reduced to no less than a required monthly interest payment. If the borrower is unable to return to scheduled principal and interest payments at the end of the modification period, foreclosure or repossession procedures will be initiated.

Allowance for Loan Losses

We are committed to maintaining the allowance for loan losses at a level that is considered to be commensurate with estimated and known risks in the portfolio. Although the adequacy of the allowance is reviewed quarterly, our management performs an ongoing assessment of the risks inherent in the portfolio. While we believe that the allowance for loan losses is adequate at March 31, 2009, future additions to the allowance will be subject to continuing evaluation of estimated and known, as well as inherent, risks in the loan portfolio.

The assessment of the adequacy of our allowance for loan losses is based upon a number of quantitative and qualitative factors, including levels and trends of past due and nonaccrual loans, change in volume and mix of loans, collateral values and charge-off history.

We provide general loan loss reserves for our RV and auto loans based upon the borrower credit score at the time of origination and our loss experience to date. We provide general loan loss reserves for our mortgage loans based upon the size and type of the mortgage loan and the loan-to-value ratio. For the nine months ended March 31, 2009, we have experienced increased charge-offs. If we continue to experience an increase in charge-offs relative to the loan portfolio size, we may be required to increase our loan loss provisions in the future to provide a larger loss allowance.

The following table summarizes activity in the allowance for loan losses for the nine months ended March 31, 2009:

The increased provisions for the nine months ended March 31, 2009 were the result of loan growth, continued changes in portfolio mix and higher estimated losses from our recreational vehicle portfolio and real estate loan portfolios.

Investment Securities

Total investment securities were $562.1 million as of March 31, 2009, compared with $510.0 million at June 30, 2008. During the nine months ended March 31, 2009, we purchased $3.2 million of mortgage-backed securities available for sale, received principal repayments of approximately $26.5 million and sold $9.1 million of FNMA Preferred. We also purchased $123.4 million of mortgage-backed securities held to maturity, had $5.0 million in callable bonds called and received principal repayments of approximately $30.9 million net of accretion. We currently classify agency mortgage-backed and debt securities as held to maturity or available for sale at the time of purchase based upon small issue size and based on issue features, such as callable terms. Until we increase our level of origination of consumer and mortgage loans, we are likely to continue to increase our investments in mortgage-backed securities.

Deposits

Deposits increased a net $123.3 million, or 21.6%, to $694.0 million at March 31, 2009, from $570.7 million at June 30, 2008. Our deposit gain composition was a 113.8% increase in interest bearing demand and savings accounts offset with a 2.7% decrease in time deposit accounts. Our increase in interest bearing demand and savings accounts was the result of increased promotion and competitive pricing during the first nine months of the fiscal year.

Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase

Since November 2006, we have sold securities under various agreements to repurchase for total proceeds of $130.0 million. The repurchase agreements bear interest rates between 3.24% and 4.75% and scheduled maturities between January 2012 and December 2017. Under these agreements, we may be required to repay the $130.0 million and repurchase our securities before the scheduled maturity if the issuer requests repayment on scheduled quarterly call dates. The weighted-average remaining contractual maturity period is 5.61 years and the weighted average remaining period before such repurchase agreements could be called is 0.80 years.

FHLB Advances

We regularly use FHLB advances to manage our interest rate risk and, to a lesser extent, manage our liquidity position. Generally, FHLB advances with terms between three and ten years have been used to fund the purchase of single family and multifamily mortgages and to provide us with interest rate risk protection should rates rise. At March 31, 2009, a total of $62.0 million of FHLB advances include agreements that allow the FHLB, at its option, to put the advances back to us after specified dates. The weighted-average remaining contractual maturity period of the $62.0 million in advances is 2.27 years and the weighted average remaining period before such advances could be put to us is 0.76 years.

Stockholders’ Equity

Stockholders’ equity increased $2.1 million to $85.2 million at March 31, 2009 compared to $83.1 million at June 30, 2008. The increase was the result of our net income for the nine months ended March 31, 2009 of $3.5 million, a $0.7 million unrealized gain from our available for sale securities, partially offset by a $2.1 million cumulative effect adjustment for our election to adopt Financial Accounting Standard No. 159 for investments in trust preferred collateralized debt.

LIQUIDITY

During the nine months ended March 31, 2009, we had net cash outflows from operating activities of $6.6 million compared to inflows of $6.8 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2008. Net operating cash outflows for the period ended in 2009 were primarily due to the add-back of non-cash adjustments of accretion of loan and security premiums and the origination of loans held for sale.

Net cash outflows from investing activities totaled $54.3 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2009 and totaled $188.0 million for the same period in 2008. Net cash outflows decreased $131.0 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2009, as fewer investment securities and loans were purchased in the period versus the same period in the prior year.

Our net cash provided by financing activities totaled $54.9 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2009 and $157.1 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2008. Net cash provided by financing activities decreased $102.2 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2009 compared to March 31, 2008, primarily due to net repayments on FHLB advances of $163.1 million and a decrease in proceeds from securities sold under agreements to repurchase of $40.0 million, offset by an increase in deposits of $81.2 million and a net $20.0 million in proceeds from the Fed Discount Window borrowing. During the quarter ended March 31, 2009, the Bank could borrow up to 40.0% of its total assets from the FHLB. Borrowings are collateralized by the pledge of certain mortgage loans and investment securities to the FHLB. We increased our borrowing capacity with the FHLB to 40.0% of total assets in October 2007. Based on the loans and securities pledged at March 31, 2009, we had total borrowing capacity of $487.6 million, of which $311.0 million was outstanding and $176.6 million was available. At March 31, 2009, we also had a $10.0 million unsecured federal funds purchase line with a bank under which no borrowings were outstanding.

During the three months ended December 31, 2008, we expanded our borrowing capabilities with the Federal Reserve. At March 31, 2009 we had borrowing capacity of $287.3 million, of which $20.0 million was outstanding and $267.3 million was available. In an effort to expand our Bank’s liquidity options, during the December 31, 2008 period, we began issuing brokered deposits. Total brokered deposits were $81.5 million at March 31, 2009. We believe our liquidity sources to be stable and adequate for our anticipated needs and contingencies. We can increase our level of deposits and borrowings to address our future liquidity needs.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS AND COMMITMENTS

At March 31, 2009, we had commitments to originate or purchase loans and investment securities of $31.7 million, and $22.6 million in commitments to sell loans. Time deposits due within one year of March 31, 2009 totaled $261.6 million. We believe the large percentage of time deposits that mature within one year reflects customers’ hesitancy to invest their funds long term. If these maturing deposits do not remain with us, we may be required to seek other sources of funds, including other time deposits and borrowings. Depending on market conditions, we may be required to pay higher rates on deposits and borrowings than we currently pay on time deposits maturing within one year. We believe, however, based on past experience, a significant portion of our time deposits will remain with us. We believe we have the ability to attract and retain deposits by adjusting interest rates offered.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND REQUIREMENTS

Bank of Internet USA is subject to various regulatory capital requirements set by the federal banking agencies. Failure by our Bank to meet minimum capital requirements could result in certain mandatory and discretionary actions by regulators that could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, our Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of our Bank’s assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Our Bank’s capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation require our Bank to maintain certain minimum capital amounts and ratios. Regulations of the Office of Thrift Supervision requires our Bank to maintain minimum ratios of tangible capital to tangible assets of 1.5%, core capital to tangible assets of 4.0% and total risk-based capital to risk-weighted assets of 8.0%. At March 31, 2009, our Bank met all the capital adequacy requirements to which it was subject. At March 31, 2009, our Bank was “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be “well capitalized,” our Bank must maintain minimum leverage, tier 1 risk-based and total risk-based capital ratios of at least 5.0%, 6.0% and 10.0%, respectively. No conditions or events have occurred since that date that management believes would materially adversely change the Bank’s capital classification. From time to time, we may need to raise additional capital to support our Bank’s further growth and to maintain its “well capitalized” status.

The Bank’s capital amounts, capital ratios and capital requirements at March 31, 2009 were as follows:

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We measure interest rate sensitivity as the difference between amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities that mature or contractually re-price within a given period of time. The difference, or the interest rate sensitivity gap, provides an indication of the extent to which an institution’s interest rate spread will be affected by changes in interest rates. A gap is considered positive when the amount of interest rate sensitive assets exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities and negative when the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive assets. In a rising interest rate environment, an institution with a positive gap would be in a better position than an institution with a negative gap to invest in higher yielding assets or to have its asset yields adjusted upward, which would result in the yield on its assets to increase at a faster pace than the cost of its interest-bearing liabilities. During a period of falling interest rates, however, an institution with a positive gap would tend to have its assets reprice at a faster rate than one with a negative gap, which would tend to reduce the growth in its net interest income. The following table sets forth the interest rate sensitivity of our assets and liabilities at March 31, 2009:

Although “gap” analysis is a useful measurement device available to management in determining the existence of interest rate exposure, its static focus as of a particular date makes it necessary to utilize other techniques in measuring exposure to changes in interest rates. For example, gap analysis is limited in its ability to predict trends in future earnings and makes no assumptions about changes in prepayment tendencies, deposit or loan maturity preferences or repricing time lags that may occur in response to a change in the interest rate environment.

We attempt to measure the effect market interest rate changes will have on the net present value of assets and liabilities, which is defined as market value of equity. We analyze the market value of equity sensitivity to an immediate parallel and sustained shift in interest rates derived from the current treasury and LIBOR yield curves. For rising interest rate scenarios, the base market interest rate forecast was increased by 100, 200 and 300 basis points. For the falling interest rate scenarios, we used a 100 basis points decrease due to limitations inherent in the current rate environment. The following table indicates the sensitivity of market value of equity to the interest rate movement described above at March 31, 2009:

The computation of the prospective effects of hypothetical interest rate changes is based on numerous assumptions, including relative levels of interest rates, asset prepayments, runoffs in deposits and changes in repricing levels of deposits to general market rates, and should not be relied upon as indicative of actual results. Furthermore, these computations do not take into account any actions that we may undertake in response to future changes in interest rates.

 

ITEM 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

For quantitative and qualitative disclosures regarding market risks in our portfolio, see, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Consolidated Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.”

 

ITEM 4: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company’s management, with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e). Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer along with our Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms.

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation referred to above that occurred during the quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting.

The Company’s size dictates that it conducts business with a minimal number of financial and administrative employees, which inherently results in a lack of documented controls and segregation of duties within the Company. Management will continue to evaluate the employees involved and the controls procedures in place, the risks associated with such lack of segregation and whether the potential benefits of adding employees to clearly segregate duties justifies the expense associated with such added personnel. In addition, management is aware that many of the internal controls that are in place at the Company are undocumented controls.

The Company believes that a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the control are met and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

We face a variety of risks that are inherent in our business and our industry. The following are some of the more significant factors that could affect our business and our results of operations:

 

   

We are subject to rapidly changing government laws and regulations, which could adversely affect our operations. The prevailing recession currently impacting the U.S. and worldwide economies is negatively impacting the banking and financial sector generally, and has and may in the future, lead to the adoption of legislation or regulation that could negatively impact our operations or our competitive position.

 

   

Our results of operations could vary as a result of the methods, estimates, and judgments that we use in applying our accounting policies.

 

   

We may elect to seek additional capital but it may not be available when it is needed and limit our ability to execute our strategic plan.

 

   

Changes in interest rates could adversely affect our income.

 

   

Many of our mortgage and consumer loans, particularly recreational vehicle loans and home equity loans are generally unseasoned, and defaults on such loans would harm our business.

 

   

If our allowance for loan losses is not sufficient to cover actual loan losses, our earnings, capital adequacy and overall financial condition may suffer materially.

 

   

Declining real estate values, particularly in California, could reduce the value of our loan portfolio and impair our profitability and financial condition.

 

   

We purchase and originate loans in bulk or “pools.” We may experience lower yields or losses on loans because the assumptions we use which may not always prove correct.

 

   

We invest in mortgage-backed securities and other securities issued by entities, which may be downgraded by large credit rating agencies decreasing the value of our securities.

 

   

Our success depends in large part on the continuing efforts of a few individuals. If we are unable to retain these personnel or attract, hire and retain others to oversee and manage our company, our business could suffer.

 

   

We depend on third-party service providers for our core banking technology, and interruptions in or terminations of their services could materially impair the quality of our services.

 

   

We are exposed to risk of environmental liability with respect to properties to which we take title.

 

   

We have risks of systems failure and security risks, including “hacking” and “identity theft.”

These risks are described in more detail under “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of our Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2008. We encourage you to read these risk factors in their entirety. Other factors may also exist that we cannot anticipate or that we currently do not consider being significant based on information that is currently available.
