NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Community Federal Bancorp, Inc. (The "Company") was incorporated
in the State of Delaware on November 22, 1995, for the purpose of
becoming a holding company to own all of the outstanding capital
stock of Community Federal Savings Bank (the "Bank"), an existing
Stock Bank which was 100% owned by Community Federal Mutual
Holding Company (the "MHC"). Upon the conversion from a
federally chartered mutual holding company form of organization
to a federally chartered stock savings association (the
"Conversion"), the MHC was dissolved.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements as of March 31, 1999, and for the three and six month
periods then ended, include the accounts of the Company and the
Bank. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts
have been eliminated in consolidation.
The condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared by
the company without an audit, but in the opinion of management,
reflect all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of
financial position and results of operations for the three and
six month periods ended March 31, 1999 and 1998. Results of
operations for the current interim period are not necessarily
indicative of results expected for the fiscal year ended
September 30, 1999. While certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have
been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations
of the Securities and Exchange commission, management believes
that the disclosures herein are adequate to make the information
presented not misleading. These condensed consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended
September 30, 1998. The accounting policies followed by the Bank
are set forth in the summary of significant accounting policies
in the Bank's September 30, 1998 consolidated financial
statements.
2. STOCK CONVERSION
On March 14, 1996, the Conversion to a federally chartered stock
savings bank through amendment of its charter, dissolution of the
MHC, and issuance of common stock to the company was completed.
Related thereto, the Company sold 4,628,750 shares of common
stock, par value $.01 per share, at an initial price of $10 per
share in subscription and community offerings. Costs associated
with the Conversion were approximately $1,300,000 including
underwriting fees. These conversion costs were deducted from the
gross proceeds of the sale of the common stock.
In connection with the Conversion, the Company has established an
employee stock ownership plan (the "ESOP"). The ESOP purchased
approximately 8%, or 363,200 shares, of the total shares of
common stock sold. The company lent $3,632,000 to the ESOP for
the purchase of the shares of common stock. Unearned
compensation for the ESOP was charged to stockholders' equity and
is reduced ratably in connection with principal payments under
the terms of the Plan.
The Management Recognition and Retention Plan Trust and the Stock
Option Plan (the "Plans") were approved by shareholders and was
effective April 1, 1997. Under the Management Recognition and
Retention Plan ("MRP"), employees and directors could be awarded
an aggregate amount of shares of common stock equal to 4% of the
shares issued in the Conversion (185,150 shares of common stock).
The aggregate fair market value of the shares purchased by the
MRP is considered unearned compensation at the time of purchase
and compensation is earned ratably over the stipulated vesting
period. Under the Company's Stock Option Plan, employees and
directors could be granted options to purchase an aggregate
amount of shares of common stock equal to 10% of the shares
issued in the Conversion (462,875 shares of common stock) at
exercise prices equal to the market price of the common stock on
the date of grant. The Company accounts for the Stock Option
Plan under the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion
No 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.
3. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earning per share were computed by dividing net income by
the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding
during the three and six months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997.
Common stock outstanding consists of issued shares less treasury
stock, unallocated ESOP shares, and shares owned by the MRP and
Stock option plan trust. Diluted earnings per share for the
three and six months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, were computed
by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares
of common stock and the dilutive effect of the shares awarded
under the MRP and Stock Option plans, based on the treasury stock
method using an average fair market value of the stock during the
respective periods.
The following table represents the earnings per share
calculations for the three and six months ended March 31, 1999
and 1998:

4. PENDING ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
The AICPA has issued Statements of Position 98-1, Accounting for
the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal
Use. This statement requires capitalization of external direct
costs of materials and services; payroll and payroll-related
costs for employees directly associated; and interests costs
during development of computer software for internal use
(planning and preliminary costs should be expensed). Also,
capitalized costs of computer software developed or obtained for
internal use should be amortized on a straight-line basis unless
another systematic and rational basis is more representative of
the software's use.
This statement is effective for financial statements for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 1998 (prospectively) and is
not expected to have a material effect on the consolidated
financial statements.
The AICPA has issued Statement of Position (SOP) 98-5 Reporting
on Cost of Start-up-Activities. This SOP provides guidance on
the financial reporting of start-up cost and organization costs.
It requires cost of start-up activities and organization cost to
be expensed as incurred and the initial application of this SOP
should be reported as the cumulative effect of a change in
accounting principle. This SOP is effective for financial
statements for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998.
Earlier application is encouraged in fiscal years for which
annual financial statements previously have not been issued.
Management does not believe that the adoption of this statement
will have a material impact on the presentation of the Company's
financial condition or results of operations.
5. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
The Company adopted SFAS No 130 October 1, 1998 SFAS No. 130
established standards for reporting and display of comprehensive
income and its components.
The Company has classified certain securities as available for
sale in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board
Statement No. 115. For the three month period ended March 31,
1999 the net unrealized gain on these securities decreased by
$1.5 million and increased $792,000 for the same period in 1998.
For the six month periods ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, the net
unrealized gain on these securities increased by $406,000 and
$2.1 million, respectively. Pursuant to Statement No. 115, any
unrealized gain or loss activity of available for sale securities
is to be recorded as an adjustment to a separate component of
shareholder's equity, net of income tax effect. Accordingly, for
the three and six month periods ended March 31, 1999 and 1998,
the Company recognized a corresponding adjustment in the net
unrealized gain component of equity.
Since comprehensive income is a measure of all changes in equity
of an enterprise that result from transactions and other economic
events of the period, this change in unrealized gain serves to
increase or decrease comprehensive income. The following table
represents comprehensive income for the three and six month
periods ended March 31, 1999 and 1998:

6. Commitments and contingencies
On January 21, 1999, the Company's Board of Directors approved
the Key Employee Retention Plan for certain officers and the Severance
Pay Plan for substantially all employees of the Company and the Bank.
Under the provisions of the Plan, the Company could be continently
liable to the employees if an employee is terminated within one year
after a change of control of the Company. As of March 31, 1999, the
amount the Company could be continently liable would be approximate $295,000.
Part 1
Item 2
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF OPERATIONS
On March 25, 1996, Community Federal Bancorp, Inc. (The
"Company") completed the sale of 4,628,750 shares of its common
stock in an initial public offering at a price of $10.00 and
simultaneously acquired the shares of common stock of Community
Federal Savings Bank (the "Bank") in connection with the mutual
to stock conversion (the "Conversion"). Costs associated with
the conversion were approximately $1,300,000. Prior to March 25,
1996, the Company had not issued any stock, had no assets or
liabilities, and had not engaged in any business activities other
than of an organizational nature.
Comparisons of Financial Conditions at March 31, 1999 and
September 30, 1998
Total assets increased by $30 million, or 10.9%, from $275.3
million at September 30, 1998 to $305.4 million at March 31,
1999. The increase in total assets was primarily attributed to a
$22.6 million increase in securities available for sale, $1.9
million increase in loans receivable and a $6.4 million increase
in cash and cash equivalents.
Equity increased $953,000 since September 30, 1998, which was
primarily attributed to $1.5 million in net income for the six
month period, a decrease of $448,000 in unearned compensation,
and an increase of $406,000 in unrealized gain on securities
available for sale, which was partially offset by the purchase of
$785,000 in treasury stock and the declaration of dividends of
$725,000.
Comparison of Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended
March 31, 1998 and 1997
The company reported net income for the three months ended March
31, 1999 of $696,000 as compared to $734,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 1998. The decrease in income for the three
months ended March 31, 1999 was due mainly to an increase in
non-interest expense and a decrease in non-interest income.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income after provision for loan losses for the three
months ended March 31, 1999 amounted to $1.8 million as compared
to $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998. Total
interest income increased $671,000 during the quarter ended March
31, 1999 as compared to the same three month period of the prior
year. This increase resulted primarily from increased interest
and fees on the higher average balance in interest earning
assets. Total interest expense increased $534,000 during the
second quarter 1999 compared to the same three month period of
the previous year. The main reason for this increase is due to
an increase in interest expense associated with FHLB advances to
fund the growth of $49 million in interest earning assets, since
March 31, 1998.
Provision for Loan Losses
A $22,500 provision for loan losses was made during the second
quarter of 1999 to correspond with the volume in the mortgage
and consumer loan portfolio, as compared to the $15,000 provision
for loan losses during the comparable 1998 second quarter. This
adjustment reflects management's estimates which took into
account historical experience, the amount of nonperforming
assets, and general economic condition. Total nonperforming
assets at March 31, 1999 were $904,000, compared to $1 million at
March 31, 1998. The allowance for loan losses at March 31, 1999
was $800,000 compared to $605,000 at March 31, 1998.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income decreased $45,000 from $367,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 1998 to $322,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 1999. This decrease was due primarily to a
decrease in Loan servicing fees, as a result of increased loan
refinancing during the three months ended March 31, 1998.
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense increased $159,000 from $937,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 1998 to $1.1 million for the three
months ended March 31, 1999. The main reason for this increase
was related to compensation expense, office occupancy and
equipment expense.
Provision for Income Tax
Income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 1999
decreased $36,000 to $378,000 as compared to income tax expense
of $414,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1998. This
decrease is the result of the decrease in income before income
taxes.
Comparisons of Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended
March 30, 1999 and 1998.
The Company reported net income for the six months ended March
31, 1999 of $1.5 million as compared to $1.4 million for the six
months ended March 31, 1998, an increase of $113,000. The
increase in income for the six months ended March 31, 1999 was
due mainly to an increase in net interest income.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income after provision for loan losses for the six
months ended March 31, 1999 amounted to $3.6 million as compared
to $3.5 million for the six months ended March 31, 1998. Total
interest income increased $1.4 million during the six months
ended March 31, 1999 as compared to the same six month period of
the prior year. This increase resulted primarily from increased
interest and fees on the higher average balances in interest
earning assets. Total interest expense for the six month period
ended March 31, 1999 increased $1.2 million compared to the same
six month period of the prior year. The above resulted from the
increase in FHLB advances to fund the growth in interest earning
assets.
Provisions for Loan Losses
A $45,000 provision for loan losses was made during the six
months ended March 31, 1999 to correspond with the volume in the
mortgage and consumer loan portfolio, compared to the $25,000
provision made during the six months ended March 31, 1998. This
adjustment reflects management's estimates which took into
account historical experience, the amount of nonperforming
assets, and general economic conditions.
Noninterest Income
Non-interest Income increased $292,000 from $491,000 for the six
months ended March 31, 1998 to $783,000 for the six months ended
March 31, 1999. This increase was due to increased fee income
and gain on the sale of securities available for sale.
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense increased by $253,000 from $1.8 million for
the six months ended March 31, 1998 to $2.1 million for the six
months ended March 31, 1999. The increase was primarily due to
an increase in compensation expense and office occupancy and
equipment expense.
Provision for Income Tax
Income tax expense for the six months ended March 31, 1999
increased by $57,000 to $812,000 as compared to the income tax
expense of $755,000 for the six months ended March 31, 1998.
This increase was due to the increase in income before income
taxes.
Capital Resources
The Bank's primary sources of funds are customer deposits,
repayments of loan principal, and interest from loans and
investments. While scheduled principal repayments on loans and
mortgage-backed securities are relatively predictable source of
funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced
by general interest rates, economic conditions, and competition.
The Bank manages the pricing of its deposits to maintain a
desired deposit balance. In addition, the Bank invests in short
term interest-earning assets which provide liquidity to meet
lending requirements.
The Bank is required to maintain certain levels of regulatory
capital. At March 31, 1999, the Bank was in compliance with all
regulatory capital requirements.
Year 2000 Issue
The Company is aware of the issue associated with the programming
code in existing computer systems as the Year 2000 approaches.
The Year 2000 issue is the results of computer programs being
written to store and process data using two digits rather than
four to define the applicable year. Computer programs that have
time sensitive coding may recognize a date using "00" as the year
1900 rather than the year 2000. Systems that do not properly
recognize such information could generate erroneous data or cause
systems to fail.
The Bank has conducted a review of its computer systems to
identify the systems that could be affected by the Year 2000
issue and has developed an implementation plan to resolve the
issue. The majority of the Bank's data processing is provided by
a third party service bureau. The service bureau is actively
involved in resolving Year 2000 issues and has provided the Bank
with frequent updates regarding its progress. The service bureau
has advised the Bank that it has resolved the majority of the
Year 2000 issues. The Bank tested the service bureau's system
for Year 2000 compliance during November of 1998 and again in
April, 1999 . The Bank presently believes that, based on the
progress and testing of the Bank's service bureau, the Year 2000
will not posse significant operational problems for the Bank's
computer system. In addition, the Bank has developed a
contingency plan to address any unforeseen problems. The total
cost of Year 2000 projects are not estimated to be material to
the financial performance of the Company.
