Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

Basis of Presentation:

The consolidated financial statements for interim periods are unaudited and reflect all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments), which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The unaudited financial statements are presented in accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q and do not include all disclosures normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Consumers Bancorp, Inc.’s Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2008. The results of operations for the interim period disclosed herein are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Consumers Bancorp, Inc. (the “Corporation”) and its wholly owned subsidiary, Consumers National Bank (the “Bank”). All significant inter-company transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.

Segment Information: Consumers Bancorp, Inc. is a bank holding company engaged in the business of commercial and retail banking, which accounts for substantially all of the revenues, operating income, and assets.

Earnings per Share: Earnings per common share are computed based on the weighted average common shares outstanding. The weighted average number of outstanding shares was 2,029,558 and 2,061,847 for the quarters ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The Corporation’s capital structure contains no dilutive securities.

Adoption of New Accounting Standards: In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. 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. 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 FAS 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. The impact of adoption was not material.

In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The standard provides companies with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value and establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between companies that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. The new standard is effective for the Corporation on July 1, 2008. The Corporation did not elect the fair value option for any financial assets or financial liabilities as of July 1, 2008.

(Dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)

 

management’s evaluation of the trust preferred securities, the present value of the projected cash flows is sufficient for full re-payment of the amortized cost of the security and, therefore it is believed the decline in market value is temporary due to current market conditions. The Corporation has the intent and ability to hold these securities until the fair value is recovered, which may be maturity. Management does not consider them to be other-than-temporarily impaired at September 30, 2008. Management will continue to monitor this security for any impairment.

At September 30, 2008, available-for-sale securities included municipal securities issued by Farmersville, Texas school district that are insured by Permanent School Fund Guarantee with an aggregate book value of $1,973, or 10.3%, of shareholders’ equity. Other than this issue, there were no holdings of securities of any one issuer, other than the U.S. government and its agencies and corporations, with an aggregate book value which exceeds 10% of shareholders’ equity.

Note 6 – Fair Value Measurement

As discussed with in Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, the Corporation adopted fair value accounting standard Statement No. 157 effective July 1, 2008. Statement No. 157 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Statement 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 (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

The Corporation used the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate the fair value of items:

Securities: Where available, the fair values of available-for-sale securities are determined by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges (Level 1 inputs). If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are estimated using matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely used in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities, but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 2 inputs).

Federal bank and other restricted stocks includes stock acquired for regulatory purposes, such as Federal Home Loan Bank stock and Federal Reserve Bank stock that are accounted for at cost; and therefore, are not subject to the disclosure requirements of Statement No. 157.

Assets and Liabilities Measured on a Non-Recurring Basis

Certain assets and liabilities may be required to be measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in periods subsequent to their initial recognition. Generally, nonrecurring valuation is the result of the application of other accounting pronouncements which require assets and liabilities to be assessed for impairment or recorded at the lower of cost or fair value.

Impaired loans are generally measured for impairment using the fair value of the collateral supporting the loan. Evaluating impaired loan collateral is based on level 3 inputs utilizing outside appraisals adjusted by management for sales costs and other assumptions regarding market conditions to arrive at fair value. As of September 30, 2008, impaired loans had a carrying value of $1,587, with a valuation allowance of $280; resulting in an additional provision for loan losses of $39 being recorded for the three month period ended September 30, 2008.

Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)

General

The following is management’s analysis of the Corporation’s results of operations for the three month period ended September 30, 2008, compared to the same period in 2007, and the consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2008 compared to June 30, 2008. This discussion is designed to provide a more comprehensive review of the operating results and financial condition than could be obtained from an examination of the financial statements alone. This analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related footnotes and the selected financial data included elsewhere in this report.

Overview

Consumers Bancorp, Inc., a bank holding company incorporated under the laws of the State of Ohio, owns all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Consumers National Bank, a bank chartered under the laws of the United States of America. The Corporation’s activities have been limited primarily to holding the common shares of the Bank. The Bank’s business involves attracting deposits from businesses and individual customers and using such deposits to originate commercial, mortgage and consumer loans in its market area, consisting primarily of Stark, Columbiana, Carroll and contiguous counties in Ohio. The Bank also invests in securities consisting primarily of U.S. government agency obligations, municipal obligations and mortgage-backed securities.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended September 30, 2008 and September 30, 2007

Net Income

Net income increased by $130 for the three month period ended September 30, 2008, as compared to the same period last year. The increase in net income was mainly attributable to an increase in net interest income and service charges on deposit accounts. Earnings per common share were $0.28 for the three month period ended September 30, 2008, as compared to $0.21 for the same period last year.

Return on average equity (ROE) and return on average assets (ROA) were 11.48% and 0.95%, respectively, for the first quarter of fiscal year 2009 compared to 9.20% and 0.85%, respectively, for the first quarter of fiscal year 2008.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income, the difference between interest income earned on interest-earning assets and interest expense incurred on interest-bearing liabilities, is the largest component of the Corporation’s earnings. Net interest income is affected by changes in the volumes, rates and composition of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest margin is calculated by dividing net interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis (FTE) by total average interest-earning assets. FTE income includes tax-exempt income, restated

to a pre-tax equivalent, based on the statutory federal income tax rate. All average balances are daily average balances. Non-accruing loans are included in average loan balances.

The Corporation’s net interest margin for the three months ended September 30, 2008 was 4.56%, compared to 4.68% for the same period last year. Net interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2008 increased by $323, or 15.0%, to $2,473 from $2,150 for the same period last year. The increase in net interest income was primarily due to an increase in average interest-earning assets and a decrease in the cost of funds. The Corporation’s cost of funds declined from 3.08% for the three months ended September 30, 2007 to 2.26% for the three months ended September 30, 2008 mainly due to lower market rates affecting the rates paid on all interest-bearing deposit accounts and borrowings.

Provision for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses represents the charge to income necessary to adjust the allowance for loan losses to an amount that represents management’s assessment of the estimated probable credit losses in the Bank’s loan portfolio that have been incurred at each balance sheet date. The provision for loan losses increased to $147 for the three month period ended September 30, 2008 compared to $100 for the same period last year.

The increased provision for loan losses for the three month period ended September 30, 2008 resulted mainly from an increase in non-accrual loans from the prior year ago quarter. Non-accrual loans were $1,832 as of September 30, 2008 compared to $1,433 as of June 30, 2008, and $803 as of September 30, 2007 compared to $886 at June 30, 2007. The increase in non-performing assets from June 30, 2008 was mainly related to one loan relationship within the commercial real estate portfolio. As of September 30, 2008, management does not believe the Corporation has a material loss exposure on this relationship.

Given the recent uncertainty in the housing market, management completed a review of the Bank’s residential real estate mortgage portfolio to determine its exposure to subprime loans. A detailed analysis of the Bank’s home equity portfolio was completed since this portfolio would be the most affected by a decline in home values. A majority of the Bank’s home equity loans were originated at 85% or less of the home value with a small number of loans originated at 90% of the home value with the additional requirements of a higher minimum credit score and a lower debt-to-income ratio. The provision for loan losses as of September 30, 2008 was considered sufficient by management for maintaining an appropriate allowance for loan losses.

Non-Interest Income

Non-interest income increased to $663 during the first quarter of fiscal year 2009, compared to $561 for the same period last year. Within non-interest income during the first quarter of fiscal year 2008, service charges on deposits increased by $99 mainly due to an increase in overdraft fee income from increased volume. Other income increased by $7 mainly due to an increase of $22 in debit card interchange income that was partially offset by a $16 decline in rental fee income that had been received in the previous year from properties the Bank owned through loan foreclosure. Also, within non-interest income a $5 gain on the sale of securities was recognized compared to a $4 loss for the same period last year.

Non-Interest Expenses

Non-interest expenses increased by 9.9%, to $2,247, during the first quarter of fiscal year 2009, compared to $2,045 during the same period last year. Salaries and employee benefits increased by $33, or 3.1%, mainly due to increased salary expense with the addition of experienced business development officers and increased expenses related to employee health insurance. These increases were partially offset by a reduction to the

(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)

 

accrual for salary continuation benefits triggered by the departure of the previous chief executive officer.

Data processing expenses increased to $133 due to a data system upgrade of the core processing system that was completed during the third quarter of fiscal year 2008. The Corporation moved from completing the data processing in-house to an out-sourced environment. As a result of this change, long-term cost savings are projected through reduced personnel expense, lower future capital expenditures and reduced expenses related to electronic funds transfer processing.

Professional fees increased to $147 mainly due to increased audit expenses associated with SOX 404 compliance.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2008 increased by $46, to $172 from $126, compared to the same period in 2007. The effective tax rate was 23.2% for the current quarter as compared to 22.3% for the same period last year. The effective tax rate differed from the federal statutory rate principally as a result of tax-exempt income from obligations of states and political subdivisions, loans and earnings on bank owned life insurance.

Financial Condition

Total assets at September 30, 2008 were $238,322 compared to $233,077 at June 30, 2008, an increase of $5,245, or 2.3%. The increase in total assets was mainly attributed to an increase in available-for-sale securities and an increase in loan receivables.

Available-for-sale securities increased by $2,385 from $59,212 at June 30, 2008 to $61,597 at September 30, 2008. Within the securities portfolio, the Corporation owns a trust preferred security, which represents pooled trust preferred securities, which had an amortized cost of $986 and a market value of $456 as of September 30, 2008. Based on management’s evaluation of the trust preferred security, the present value of the projected cash flows is sufficient for full re-payment of the amortized cost of the security and, therefore it is believed the decline in market value is temporary due to current market conditions. The Corporation has the intent and ability to hold this security until the fair value is recovered, which may be maturity. Management does not consider it to be other-than-temporarily impaired at September 30, 2008. Management will continue to monitor this security for any impairment.

Loan receivables increased by $1,957 to $154,307 at September 30, 2008 compared to $152,350 at June 30, 2008. The current increase in loan receivables is mainly attributable more targeted calling efforts by the lending officers.

Total shareholders’ equity decreased by $453 from June 30, 2008, to $19,118 as of September 30, 2008. The decrease was due to a decline in the fair value of available-for-sale securities mainly as a result of changes in interest rates and due to cash dividends paid during the period. These decreases were partially offset by net income for the current three month period.

As of September 30, 2008, impaired loans totaled $1,587, all of which are included in non-accrual loans. Commercial and commercial real estate loans are classified as impaired if management determines that full collection of principal and interest, in accordance with the terms of the loan documents, is not probable. Impaired loans and non-performing loans have been considered in management’s analysis of the appropriateness of the allowance for loan losses. Management and the Board of Directors are closely monitoring these loans and believe that the prospects for recovery of principal and interest, less identified specific reserves, are good.

Liquidity

The objective of liquidity management is to ensure adequate cash flows to accommodate the demands of our customers and provide adequate flexibility for the Corporation to take

advantage of market opportunities under both normal operating conditions and under unpredictable circumstances of industry or market stress. Cash is used to fund loans, purchase investments, fund the maturity of liabilities, and at times to fund deposit outflows and operating activities. The Corporation’s principal sources of funds are deposits; amortization and prepayments of loans; maturities, sales and principal receipts from securities; borrowings; and operations. Management considers the asset position of the Corporation to be sufficiently liquid to meet normal operating needs and conditions. The Corporation’s earning assets are mainly comprised of loans and investment securities. Management continually strives to obtain the best mix of loans and investments to both maximize yield and insure the soundness of the portfolio, as well as to provide funding for loan demand as needed.

Net cash from operating activities for the three month period ended September 30, 2008 was $721, net cash from investing activities was $(5,309) and net cash from financing activities was $5,476. The major sources of cash were $2,269 net increase in deposits, $3,456 net increase in short-term borrowings and $6,436 from sales, maturities or principal pay downs on available-for-sale securities. The major uses of cash were the $10,030 purchase of securities and a $1,970 net increase in loans. Total cash and cash equivalents was $7,525 as of September 30, 2008 compared to $6,637 at June 30, 2008.

The Bank offers several forms of deposit products to its customers. The rates offered by the Bank and the fees charged for them are competitive with others available currently in the market area. While the Bank continues to be under competitive pressures in the Bank’s market area as financial institutions attempt to attract and keep new deposits, many commercial and retail customers have been turning to community banking in these difficult economic times.

To provide an additional source of liquidity, the Corporation has entered into an agreement with the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) of Cincinnati. At September 30, 2008, FHLB advances totaled $10,555 as compared with $10,601 at June 30, 2008. The Corporation considers the FHLB to be a reliable source of liquidity funding, secondary to its deposit base.

Short-term borrowings consisted of repurchase agreements which is a financing arrangement that matures daily. The Bank pledges securities as collateral for the repurchase agreements. Short-term borrowings increased by $3,456 from June 30, 2008 mainly due to deposits received from local municipalities.

Jumbo time deposits (those with balances of $100 thousand and over) decreased from $23,715 at June 30, 2008 to $22,528 at September 30, 2008. These deposits are monitored closely by the Corporation and are mainly priced on an individual basis. When these deposits are from a municipality, certain bank-owned securities are pledged to guarantee the safety of these public fund deposits as required by Ohio law. The

Corporation has the option to use a fee-paid broker to obtain deposits from outside its normal service area as an additional source of funding. The Corporation however, does not rely upon these deposits as a primary source of funding. Although management monitors interest rates on an ongoing basis, a quarterly rate sensitivity report is used to determine the effect of interest rate changes on the financial statements. In the opinion of management, enough assets or liabilities could be repriced over the near term (up to three years) to compensate for such changes. The spread on interest rates, or the difference between the average earning assets and the average interest-bearing liabilities, is monitored quarterly.

Capital Resources

The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal regulatory agencies. Capital adequacy guidelines and prompt corrective-action regulations involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Failure to meet various capital requirements can initiate regulatory action that could have a direct material effect on the Corporation’s financial statements. The Bank is considered well capitalized under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act at September 30, 2008. Management is not aware of any matters occurring subsequent to September 30, 2008 that would cause the Bank’s capital category to change.

On October 3, 2008, the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008, or EESA, was signed into law providing for, among other things, $700 billion in funding to the U.S. Treasury to purchase troubled assets from financial institutions. On October 14, 2008, the Treasury, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation issued a joint statement announcing additional steps aimed at stabilizing the financial markets, including a $250 billion voluntary Capital Purchase Program, or CPP, that allows qualifying financial institutions to sell preferred shares to the Treasury. Institutions that participate in the CPP are restricted in their ability to make future stock repurchases and to increase dividend payments to shareholders for a period of three years. The Corporation’s Board of Directors and management have evaluated the benefits and drawbacks of participation in the CPP, have reviewed these analyses with the Corporation’s financial and legal advisors, and have determined not to apply for funds under the CPP, given the Corporation’s current and historical status as a well capitalized financial institution.

Critical Accounting Policies

The financial condition and results of operations for the Corporation presented in the Consolidated Financial Statements, accompanying notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are, to a large degree, dependent upon the Corporation’s accounting policies. The selection and application of these accounting policies involve judgments, estimates and uncertainties that are susceptible to change.

The Company has identified the appropriateness of the allowance for loan losses and the valuation of securities as critical accounting policies and an understanding of these policies are necessary to understand the financial statements. Critical accounting policies are those policies that require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Footnote one (Securities and Allowance for Loan Losses), footnote two (Securities), footnote three (Loans) and Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results from Operation (Critical Accounting Policies) of the 2008 Form 10-K provide detail with regard to the Corporation’s accounting for the allowance for loan losses. There have been no significant changes in the application of accounting policies since June 30, 2008.

Forward-Looking Statements

When used in this report (including information incorporated by reference in this report), the words or phrases “will likely result,” “are expected to,” “will continue,” “is anticipated,” “estimate,” “project,” “believe” or similar expressions are intended to identify “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These forward-looking statements may involve risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict, may be beyond the Corporation’s control, and could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in such statements. Any such forward-looking statements are made only as of the date of this report or the respective dates of the relevant incorporated documents, as the case may be, and, except as required by law, the Corporation undertakes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances. Factors that could cause actual results or experience to differ from results discussed in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: regional and national economic conditions becoming less favorable than expected, resulting in, among other things, a deterioration in credit quality of assets; changes in levels of market interest rates which could reduce anticipated or actual margins; credit risks, competitive and regulatory factors affecting lending activities; government regulation, and material unforeseen changes in the financial condition or results of Consumers National Bank’s customers could affect the Corporation’s financial performance and could cause the Corporation’s actual results for future periods to differ materially from those anticipated or projected.

The risks and uncertainties identified above are not the only risks the Corporation faces. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to the Corporation or that the Corporation currently believes to be immaterial also may adversely affect the Corporation. Should any known or unknown risks and uncertainties develop into actual events, those developments could have material adverse effects on the Corporation’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Item 3 – Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Market risk is the risk that a financial institution’s earnings and capital, or its ability to meet its business objectives, will be adversely affected by movements in market rates or prices such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, equity prices, credit spreads and/or commodity prices. Within the Bank, the dominant market risk exposure is fluctuation in interest rates. The negative effect of this exposure is felt through the net interest margin and the market value of various assets and liabilities.

The Bank measures interest-rate risk from the perspectives of earnings at risk and value at risk. The primary purpose of both the loan and investment portfolios is the generation of income, but credit risk is the principal focus of risk analysis in the loan portfolio and interest-rate risk is the principal focus in the investment portfolio. Because of the greater liquidity of the investment portfolio, it is the vehicle for managing interest-rate risk in the entire balance sheet. The Bank manages its interest rate risk position using simulation analysis of net interest income and net income over a two-year period. The Bank also calculates the effect of an instantaneous change in market interest rates on the economic value of equity or net portfolio value. Once these analyses are complete, management reviews the results, with an emphasis on the income-simulation results for purposes of managing interest-rate risk. The rate sensitivity position is managed to avoid wide swings in net interest margins. Measurement and identification of current and potential interest rate risk exposures are conducted quarterly, with reporting and monitoring also occurring quarterly. The Bank applies interest rate shocks to its financial instruments up and down 100, 200 and 300 basis points.

The following table presents an analysis of the potential sensitivity of the Bank’s annual net interest income and present value of the Bank’s financial instruments to a sudden and sustained increase and decrease change in market interest rates of 100 and 200 basis points:

The projected volatility of the net present value of equity to a +200 basis points change in market interest rates is slightly outside of the policy guideline. The change in the net present value of equity measures the impact of an immediate 200 basis point increase in market interest rates to the value of all assets and liabilities and the resulting effect of this change on capital.

The preceding analysis is based on numerous assumptions, including relative levels of market interest rates, loan prepayments and reactions of depositors to changes in interest rates, and should not be relied upon as being indicative of actual results. Further, the analysis does not necessarily contemplate all actions the Bank may undertake in response to changes in interest rates.
