(1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Oconee Federal Financial Corp., which include the accounts of its wholly owned subsidiary Oconee Federal Savings and Loan Association (the “Association”) (referred to herein as “the Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated during consolidation. The Company is majority owned (67.99%) by Oconee Federal, MHC. These financial statements do not include the transactions and balances of Oconee Federal, MHC.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of March 31, 2013 and June 30, 2012 and the results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods ended March 31, 2013 and 2012. All interim amounts have not been audited, and the results of operations for the interim periods herein are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the year. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Form 10-K Annual Report of Oconee Federal Financial Corp. for the year ended June 30, 2012.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the June 30, 2012 financial statement presentation to correspond to the current period’s format. In order to provide a more accurate presentation of the interest bearing and noninterest bearing cash balances, $11,602 has been reclassified from cash and due from banks to interest-bearing deposits at June 30, 2012. The reclassification does not represent a change in accounting principal nor a correction of an error, as the total cash and cash equivalents has not changed. Total equity and net income are unchanged due to these reclassifications.

(2) EARNINGS PER SHARE (“EPS”)

ESOP shares are considered outstanding for this calculation unless unearned. The factors used in the earnings per common share computation follow:

	Three Months Ended						Nine Months Ended

Diluted earnings per share	$	0.14		$	0.16		$	0.48		$	0.46

There were no potential dilutive common shares for the three or nine months ended March 31, 2012. For the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, there was no difference between basic EPS and diluted EPS. During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2013 there were no potential anti-dilutive common shares.

(1) Consists of 300 shares of Southern First Bancshares, Inc. cumulative perpetual preferred stock, series T and 500 shares of BNC Bancorp cumulative perpetual preferred stock, series T.

The Company evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluation. The Company considers the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost and the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer. Additionally, the Company considers its intent to sell or whether it will be more likely than not it will be required to sell the security prior to the security’s anticipated recovery in fair value. In analyzing an issuer’s financial condition, the Company may consider whether the securities are issued by federal government agencies, whether downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred, and the results of reviews of the issuer’s financial condition.

(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share data)

At March 31, 2013, there were six U.S Government Agency securities, three GNMA CMO/REMIC, one FNMA CMO/REMIC, and two FHLMC CMO/REMIC securities with fair values below amortized cost that were classified as available-for-sale. Additionally, there were two GNMA mortgage-backed securities and two certificates of deposit with fair values below amortized cost at March 31, 2013. At June 30, 2012, there were two U.S. Government agency securities, one FHLMC mortgage-backed security, one FNMA mortgage-backed security, and two certificates of deposits with unrealized losses. None of the securities had unrealized losses greater than twelve months, and none of the unrealized losses for these securities have been recognized in net income for the three or nine months ended March 31, 2013 because of the high credit quality of the securities, management does not intend to sell and it is likely that management will not be required to sell these securities prior to their anticipated recovery, and the decline in fair value is largely due to changes in interest rates. The fair value is expected to recover as the bonds approach their maturity date or reset date.

During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2012, management recorded an other-than-temporary impairment charge on the FHLMC common stock of $0 and $7, respectively, based on management’s evaluation of the length of time the FHLMC had been impaired and the prospects of recoverability. No impairment was recorded for the three or nine months ended March 31, 2013.

The amortized cost and fair value of securities available-for-sale and held-to-maturity debt securities at March 31, 2013 by contractual maturity are summarized as follows:

	March 31, 2013
	Amortized		Estimated
	Cost		Fair Value
Due from one to five years	$	28,387	$	29,017
Due from five to ten years	12,235		12,247
Due after ten years	4,000		3,974
Mortgage-backed securities	46,364		47,208
Total	$	90,986	$	92,446

The following table presents the gross proceeds from sales of securities available-for-sale and gains or losses recognized for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012:

At March 31, 2013, nonaccrual loans were $1,467, of which $1,265 were past due 90 days or more. There was $202 of nonaccrual loans that were 30-59 days past due. At June 30, 2012, there was $2,157 of nonaccrual loans, all of which were past due 90 days or more.

There were no troubled debt restructures at March 31, 2013 or June 30, 2012.

All loans graded pass, special mention, substandard and doubtful not specifically evaluated for impairment are collectively evaluated for impairment by portfolio segment. To develop and document a systematic methodology for determining the portion of the allowance for loan losses for loans evaluated collectively, the Company has divided the loan portfolio into six portfolio segments, each with different risk characteristics and methodologies for assessing risk, and utilizes a loan grading system whereby all loans within each portfolio segment are assigned a grade based on the risk profile of each loan. Loan grades are determined based on an evaluation of relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. All loans, regardless of size, are analyzed and assigned a grade based upon management’s assessment of the ability of borrowers to service their debts. The following describes each of the Company’s loan grades and general information as to the risk profile of each of the Company’s loan portfolio segments:

Table of Contents

OCONEE FEDERAL FINANCIAL CORP.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share data)

Loan Grades:

Pass: Loans not meeting any of the criteria listed below for special mention, substandard, or doubtful are graded “Pass.”

Special Mention: Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of repayment prospects for the loan or of the institution’s credit position at some future date.

Substandard: Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Doubtful: Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.

Portfolio Segments:

One-to-four family: One-to-four family residential loans consist primarily of loans secured by first or second deeds of trust on primary residences, and are originated as adjustable-rate or fixed-rate loans for the construction, purchase or refinancing of a one-to-four family residence. These loans are collateralized by owner-occupied properties located in the Company’s market area. We currently originate residential mortgage loans for our portfolio with loan-to-value ratios of up to 80% for traditional owner-occupied homes.

Multi-family: Multi-family real estate loans generally have a maximum term of 30 years with a five year balloon payment and are secured by properties containing five or more units in the Company’s market area. These loans are generally made in amounts of up to 75% of the lesser of the appraised value or the purchase price of the property with an appropriate projected debt service coverage ratio. The Company’s underwriting analysis includes considering the borrower’s expertise and requires verification of the borrower’s credit history, income and financial statements, banking relationships, independent appraisals, references and income projections for the property. The Company generally obtains personal guarantees on these loans.

Multi-family real estate loans generally present a higher level of risk than loans secured by one-to-four family residences. This greater risk is due to several factors, including the concentration of principal in a limited number of loans and borrowers, the effects of general economic conditions on income-producing properties and the increased difficulty of evaluating and monitoring these types of loans. Furthermore, the repayment of loans secured by multi-family residential real estate is typically dependent upon the successful operation of the related real estate project.

Home Equity: We originate fixed-rate home equity loans secured by a lien on the borrower’s primary residence but only where we hold the first mortgage on the property. Our home equity loans are limited to an 80% loan-to-value ratio (including all prior liens), and have terms of up to 10 years with 10-year amortization periods. We use the same underwriting standards for home equity loans as we use for one- to four-family residential mortgage loans.

Nonresidential Real Estate: Our non-residential real estate loans are secured primarily by churches and, to a much lesser extent, office buildings, and retail and mixed-use properties located in our primary market area. The non-residential real estate loans that we originate generally have maximum terms of 5 years with amortization periods of 30 years. For loans secured by church property, our loans generally have maximum terms of 20 years with amortization periods of up to 20 years. The maximum loan-to-value ratio of our non-residential real estate loans is generally 75%.

Loans secured by non-residential real estate generally are larger than one- to four-family residential loans and involve greater credit risk. Non-residential real estate loans often involve large loan balances to single borrowers or groups of related borrowers. Repayment of these loans depends to a large degree on the results of operations and management of the properties securing the loans or the businesses conducted on such property, and may be affected to a greater extent by adverse conditions in the real estate market or the economy in general, including the current adverse conditions. In addition, because a church’s financial stability often depends on donations from congregation members, some of whom may not reside in our market area,

(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share data)

rather than income from business operations, repayment may be affected by economic conditions that affect individuals located both in our market area and in other market areas with which we are not as familiar. In addition, due to the unique nature of church buildings and properties, the real estate securing church loans may be less marketable than other non-residential real estate.

Construction and Land: We make construction loans to individuals for the construction of their primary residences and interim construction loans for non-residential properties. These loans generally have maximum terms of eight months, and upon completion of construction convert to conventional amortizing mortgage loans. These construction loans have rates and terms comparable to one- to four-family residential mortgage loans that we originate. During the construction phase, the borrower generally pays interest only. The maximum loan-to-value ratio of our owner-occupied construction loans is 80%. Residential construction loans are generally underwritten pursuant to the same guidelines used for originating permanent residential mortgage loans. Finally, we make loans secured by land to complement our construction and non-residential lending activities. These loans have terms of up to 10 years, and maximum loan-to-value ratios of 75% for improved lots and 65% for unimproved land.

To the extent our construction loans are not made to owner-occupants of single-family homes, they are more vulnerable to changes in economic conditions and the concentration of credit with a limited number of borrowers. Further, the nature of these loans is such that they are more difficult to evaluate and monitor. Our risk of loss on a construction or land loan is dependent largely upon the accuracy of the initial estimate of the property’s value upon completion of the project and the estimated cost (including interest) of the project. If the estimate of value proves to be inaccurate, we may be confronted, at or prior to the maturity of the loan, with a project with a value which is insufficient to assure full repayment and/or the possibility of having to make substantial investments to complete and sell the project. Because defaults in repayment may not occur during the construction period, it may be difficult to identify problem loans at an early stage.

Consumer and Other Loans: We offer installment loans for various consumer purposes, including the purchase of automobiles, boats, appliances and recreational vehicles, and for other legitimate personal purposes. The maximum terms of consumer loans is 18 months for unsecured loans, 12 months for loans secured by marketable securities and 18-60 months for loans secured by a vehicle, depending on the age of the vehicle. We generally only extend consumer loans to existing customers or their immediate family members, and these loans generally have relatively low limits.

Consumer loans may entail greater credit risk than residential mortgage loans, particularly in the case of consumer loans that are unsecured or are secured by rapidly depreciable assets, such as automobiles. In addition, consumer loan collections are dependent on the borrower’s continuing financial stability, and thus are more likely to be affected by adverse personal circumstances. Furthermore, the application of various federal and state laws, including bankruptcy and insolvency laws, may limit the amount which can be recovered on such loans.

(5) FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (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. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair values:

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 reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

Investment Securities:

The fair values for investment securities are determined by quoted market prices, if available (Level 1). For securities where quoted prices are not available, fair values are calculated based on market prices of similar securities (Level 2). For securities where quoted prices or market prices of similar securities are not available, fair values are calculated using discounted cash flows or other market indicators (Level 3). The Company’s preferred stock investments are not actively traded; therefore, management estimates the fair value of its preferred stock using estimations provided by external dealer quotes.

Impaired Loans:

The fair value of impaired loans with specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses is generally based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal 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 of the inputs for determining fair value.

Real estate owned:

Nonrecurring adjustments to certain commercial and residential real estate properties classified as real estate owned are measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value, less costs to sell. Fair values are generally based on third party appraisals of the property, resulting in a Level 3 classification. In cases where the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, less costs to sell, an impairment loss is recognized.

(6) EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN

Employees participate in an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”). The ESOP borrowed from the Company to purchase 248,842 shares of the Company’s common stock at $10 per share during 2011. The Company makes discretionary contributions to the ESOP, and pays dividends on unallocated shares to the ESOP, and the ESOP uses funds it receives to repay the loan. When loan payments are made, ESOP shares are allocated to participants based on relative compensation and expense is recorded. Dividends on allocated shares increase participant accounts.

Participants receive the shares at the end of employment. No contributions to the ESOP were made during the nine months ended March 31, 2013. The expense recognized for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2013 was $63 and $198, respectively. The expense recognized for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2012 was $48 and $169, respectively.

The Company’s shares held by the ESOP at March 31, 2013 and June 30, 2012 were as follows:

	March 31, 2013		June 30, 2012
Committed to be released to participants	4,532		8,276
Allocated to participants	33,212		15,585

(7) STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

On April 5, 2012, the shareholders of Oconee Federal Financial Corp. approved the Oconee Federal Financial Corp. 2012 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) for employees and directors of the Company. The Plan authorizes the issuance of up to 435,472 shares of the Company’s common stock, with no more than 124,420 of shares as restricted stock awards and 311,052 as stock options, either incentive stock options or non-qualified stock options. The exercise price of options granted under the Plan may not be less than the fair market value on the date the stock option is granted. The compensation committee of the board of directors has sole discretion to determine the amount and to whom equity incentive awards are granted.

On April 27, 2012, the compensation committee of the board of directors approved the issuance of 62,208 stock options and 24,884 shares of restricted stock to its directors. In addition, a total of 171,078 stock options and 62,210 shares of restricted stock were granted to officers. Stock options vest ratably over a weighted average term of 5.67 years and restricted stock vest ratably over an average of five years. Stock options expire ten years after issuance. Apart from the vesting schedule for both stock options and restricted stock, there are no performance-based conditions or any other material conditions applicable to the awards issued.

The following table summarizes stock option activity for the nine months ended March 31, 2013:

	Options	Weighted- Average Exercise Price/Share		Weighted- Average Remaining Contractual Life (in years)	Aggregate Intrinsic Value (1)
Outstanding - July 1, 2012	233,286	$	11.58
Granted	—	—
Exercised	—	—
Forfeited	—	—
Outstanding - March 31, 2013	233,286	$	11.58	9.08	$	914,481
Fully vested and exercisable at March 31, 2013	—	$	—	—	$	—
Expected to vest in future periods	233,286
Fully vested and expected to vest -March 31, 2013	233,286	$	11.58	9.08	$	914,481

(1) Based on closing price of $15.50 per share on March 31, 2013.

Intrinsic value for stock options is defined as the difference between the current market value and the exercise price.

The fair value for each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model that uses the following assumptions. The Company uses the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant to determine the risk-free interest rate. The expected dividend yield is estimated using the projected annual dividend level and recent stock price of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant. Expected stock volatility is based on historical volatilities of the SNL Financial Index of Thrifts. The expected life of the options is calculated based on the “simplified” method as provided for under Staff Accounting Bulletin No.110.

The weighted-average assumptions used in the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model to determine the fair value of options granted was as follows:

Risk-free interest rate	1.54		%
Expected dividend yield	3.45		%
Expected stock volatility	15.3
Expected life (years)	8
Fair value	$	1.00

(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share data)

Stock options are assumed to be earned ratably over their respective vesting periods and charged to compensation expense based upon their grant date fair value and the number of options assumed to be earned. There were 31,689 options that were earned during the nine months ended March 31, 2013. Stock-based compensation expense for stock options for the three and nine months ended was $10 and $32, respectively. Total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested stock options was $191 at March 31, 2013 and is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 4.7 years.

The following table summarizes non-vested restricted stock activity for the nine months ended March 31, 2013:

		2013
Balance - beginning of year		87,092
Granted		—
Forfeited		—
Vested		—
Balance - end of period		87,092

The fair value of the restricted stock awards is amortized to compensation expense over the vesting period (generally five years) and is based on the market price of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant multiplied by the number of shares granted that are expected to vest. The weighted-average grant date fair value of restricted stock granted during the year ended June 30, 2012 was $11.58 per share or $1,009. Stock-based compensation expense for restricted stock included in noninterest expense for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2013 was $46 and $139, respectively. Unrecognized compensation expense for nonvested restricted stock awards was $823 and is expected to be recognized over 4.65 years.

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

This Quarterly Report contains forward-looking statements, which can be identified by the use of such words as estimate, project, believe, intend, anticipate, plan, seek, expect and similar expressions. These forward-looking statements include:

· statements of our goals, intentions and expectations;

· statements regarding our business plans and prospects and growth and operating strategies;

· statements regarding the asset quality of our loan and investment portfolios; and

· estimates or our risks and future costs and benefits.

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

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

· our ability to manage our operations under the current adverse economic conditions (including real estate values, loan demand, inflation, commodity prices and employment levels) nationally and in our market areas;

· adverse changes in the financial industry, securities, credit and national and local real estate markets (including real estate values);

· significant increases in our delinquencies and loan losses, including as a result of our inability to resolve classified assets, changes in the underlying cash flows of our borrowers, and management’s assumptions in determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses;

· increased competition among depository and other financial institutions;

· our ability to attract and maintain deposits;

· changes in interest rates generally, including changes in the relative differences between short term and long term interest rates and in deposit interest rates, that may affect our net interest margin and funding sources;

· fluctuations in the demand for loans, which may be affected by the number of unsold homes, land and other properties in our market areas and by declines in the value of real estate in our market area;

· declines in the yield on our assets resulting from the current low interest rate environment;

· our ability to successfully implement our business strategies;

· risks related to high concentration of loans secured by real estate located in our market areas;

· changes in laws or government regulations or policies affecting financial institutions, including the Dodd-Frank Act, which could result in, among other things, increased deposit insurance premiums and assessments, capital requirements, regulatory fees and compliance costs, and changes in the level of government support of housing finance;

· the results of examinations by our regulators, including the possibility that our regulators may, among other things, require us to increase our reserve for loan losses, write down assets, change our regulatory capital position, limit our ability to borrow funds or maintain or increase deposits, or prohibit us from paying dividends, which could adversely affect our dividends and earnings;

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

Table of Contents

· risks relating to acquisitions and an ability to integrate and operate profitably any financial institution that we may acquire;

· our reliance on a small executive staff;

· changes in consumer spending, borrowing and savings habits;

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

· risks and costs related to operating as a publicly traded company;

· changes in our organization, compensation and benefit plans;

· changes in our financial condition or results of operations that reduce capital available to pay dividends; and

· changes in the financial condition or future prospects of issuers of securities that we own, including our stock in the FHLB of Atlanta; and

· other economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory and operational factors affecting our operations, pricing, products and services.

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

Critical Accounting Policies

There are no material changes to the critical accounting policies disclosed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for Oconee Federal Financial Corp. for the year ended June 30, 2012, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Comparison of Financial Condition at March 31, 2013 and June 30, 2012

Our total assets decreased $2.9 million, or 0.78%, to $374.8 million at March 31, 2013 from $377.8 million at June 30, 2012. A substantial portion of this decrease is reflected in the decrease in net loans of $22.9 million, or 9.2%, offset partially by an increase in securities available-for-sale of $20.3 million, or 31.5%. We continue to deploy funds from loan repayments and payoffs to purchase high-quality investment securities, which we have classified as available-for-sale. The continued decrease in outstanding loans reflects the continued decrease of loan demand in our market area. Our total deposits increased modestly by $416 thousand to $293.8 million at March 31, 2013 from $293.4 million at June 30, 2012. Total equity decreased to $79.2 million at March 31, 2013 compared with $83.0 million at June 30, 2012. The decrease in total equity is the result of the repurchase of 352,550 shares of treasury stock for $5.5 million and the payment of dividends of $1.8 million, offset partially by net income of $3.0 million and other comprehensive income of $178 thousand for the nine months ended March 31, 2013.

Total loans decreased to $226.9 million at March 31, 2013 from $249.8 million at June 30, 2012. Our one-to four-family real estate loans decreased by $23.5 million, or 10.0%, to $210.7 million at March 31, 2013 from $234.1 million at June 30, 2012, resulting from decreased demand in our market area. The decrease in one-to four-family real estate loans was offset partially by a slight increase in construction and land loans to $8.1 million at March 31, 2013 from $7.2 million at June 30, 2012. All other loan categories decreased by $686 thousand from June 30, 2012 to March 31, 2013.

Deposits increased to $293.8 million at March 31, 2013 from $293.4 million at June 30, 2012. The increase was primarily attributed to an increase in regular savings accounts of $2.5 million, or 7.0%, and NOW and demand deposits of $2.1 million, or 10.4%, offset partially by a decrease in certificates of deposit of $4.0 million, or 1.8%. The decrease in certificates of deposit is primarily related to depositors seeking better yields on their funds through other sources. The increase in NOW and demand accounts is partially attributed to $1.2 million in dividends paid to Oconee Federal, MHC and the increase in regular savings accounts is primarily related to depositors maintaining higher deposit account balances. Oconee Federal MHC’s cash is held on deposit with the Company. We generally do not accept brokered deposits and no brokered deposits were accepted during the nine months ended March 31, 2013.

Table of Contents

We had no advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta as of March 31, 2013 or June 30, 2012. We have credit available under a loan agreement with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta in the amount of 11% of total assets (as of March 31, 2013), or approximately $41.1 million.

There were no other loans that are not disclosed above where there is information about possible credit problems of borrowers that caused us serious doubts about the ability of the borrowers to comply with present loan repayment terms and that may result in disclosure of such loans in the future.

Interest income that would have been recorded had our non-accruing loans been current in accordance with their original terms was $11 thousand and $61 thousand for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Interest of $22

Table of Contents

thousand and $52 thousand was recognized on these loans and is included in net income for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012.

The decrease in the ratio of nonperforming loans to total loans was primarily the result of the decrease in our nonperforming loans to $1.5 million at March 31, 2013 from $2.2 million at June 30, 2012. All nonperforming loans, regardless of size, are evaluated by management for impairment.

Analysis of Net Interest Margin

The following tables set forth average balance sheets, average yields and rates, and certain other information at and for the periods indicated. No tax-equivalent yield adjustments were made, as the effect thereof was not material. All average balances are daily average balances. Nonaccrual loans were included in the computation of average balances, but have been reflected in the tables as loans carrying a zero yield. The yields set forth below include the effect of net deferred costs, discounts and premiums that are amortized or accreted to income.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2013 and March 31, 2012

General. We recognized net income of $850 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared with net income of $948 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The decrease of $98 thousand was primarily attributable to a decrease in net interest income after provision for loan losses of $194 thousand, or 6.6%, offset slightly by an increase in noninterest income of $30 thousand, or 51.7%, for the three months ended March 31, 2013.

Interest Income. Interest income decreased by $330 thousand to $3.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $3.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The decrease was primarily the result of a decrease in the average yield on interest earning assets to 3.78% for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from 4.13% for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and a decrease in the average balance of interest earning assets to $364.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $366.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

Interest income on loans decreased by $375 thousand, or 10.7%, to $3.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $3.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The decrease resulted from a decrease in the average balances of loans of $26.4 million, or 10.3%, to $230.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $257.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and a decrease in the yield on loans to 5.44% for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from 5.46% for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The decrease in loan balances is the result of competition and reduced demand for loans in our market area. Interest income on investment securities increased by $56 thousand, or 23.3% to $296 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $240 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The increase reflected an increase in the average balance of securities to $86.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $59.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The increase in average balances offset the decrease in yields on such securities to 1.37% from 1.61% for the same periods. The increase in average balances of our investment securities is reflective of our efforts to invest excess funds available from loan repayments coupled with a declining demand for residential mortgage loans in our market area.

Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased $234 thousand, or 31.3%, to $513 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $747 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The decrease reflected a decrease in the average rate paid on deposits in the three months ended March 31, 2013 to 0.72% from 1.04% in the three months ended March 31, 2012 and a decrease in the average balances of deposits of $1.2 million, or 0.42%, to $288.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $289.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The largest decrease in interest expense came from certificates of deposit, which decreased $201 thousand, or 30.3%, as the average balance of certificates of deposits decreased $4.9 million, or 2.2%, to $222.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $227.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012, and the average rate paid on these deposits decreased to 0.84% from 1.17% for the same periods.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income decreased by $96 thousand, or 3.2%, to $2.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $3.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The decrease resulted from a decrease in our interest rate spread to 3.06% from 3.09% and a decrease in our net interest margin to 3.22% from 3.31% for the same periods. The decrease in our interest rate spread and margin was largely due to declining yields on interest earning assets, which reflected the continuing decline across the U.S. Treasury yield curve.

Provision for Loan Losses. We recorded a provision for loan losses of $180 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2013, compared with a provision of $82 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2012. Net charge-offs for the three months ended March 31, 2013 were $299 thousand compared with $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The increase in our provision reflected the increase in our net charge offs for the three months ended March 31, 2013 as compared with the same period in 2012. Net charge offs for the three months ended March 31, 2013 was primarily impacted by one large one-to-four family residential real estate loan charge off of $277 thousand. Management believes that this charge off is not a reflection of our asset quality and is not indicative of a trend of increased loan losses. Our allowance for loan losses was $747 thousand at March 31, 2013 and $857 thousand at June 30, 2012, or 0.33% and 0.34% of total loans at March 31, 2013 and June 30, 2012, respectively. Our allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans was 44.6% and 37.2% at March 31, 2013 and June 30, 2012, respectively.

We used the same methodology in assessing the allowances for both periods. To the best of our knowledge, we have recorded all losses that are both probable and reasonably estimable for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012.

Noninterest Income. Noninterest income for the three months ended March 31, 2013 was $88 thousand compared with $58 thousand for the same period in 2012. The increase was primarily related to an increase in other noninterest income of $55

Table of Contents

thousand, offset partially by a decrease of $22 thousand in gain on sales of securities. The majority of the increase in other noninterest income was related to a gain of $56 thousand on foreclosure of a one-to-four family residential real estate loan.

Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2013 increased slightly by $9 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2013 over the same period in 2012. The significant decrease in the provision for real estate owned and related expense of $188 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2013 was offset primarily by an increase in salary and employee benefits of $159 thousand, most of which is related to our equity incentive plans that were not in place during the three months ended March 31, 2012 and an increase in our ESOP expense. The total expense related to our equity incentive programs and ESOP for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 was $119 thousand and $48 thousand, respectively.

Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2013 was $559 thousand compared $634 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2012. Our effective income tax rate decreased slightly to 39.67% for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from 40.00% for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Nine months Ended March 31, 2013 and March 31, 2012

General. We had net income of $3.0 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 as compared with net income of $2.8 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2012. The increase of $155 thousand was primarily attributable to a decrease in noninterest expenses of $300 thousand, or 6.9%, offset slightly by a decrease in net interest income after the provision for loan losses of $90 thousand.

Interest Income. Interest income decreased by $886 thousand to $10.6 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 from $11.5 million for the same period in 2012. The decrease was primarily the result of a decrease in the average yield on interest earning assets to 3.87% for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 from 4.22% for the nine months ended March 31, 2012, which more than offset the increase in the average balances of interest earning assets of $2.2 million, or 0.61%, to $366.4 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 from $364.2 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2012.

Interest income on loans decreased by $1.1 million, or 10.0%, to $9.7 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 from $10.8 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2012. The decrease resulted from a decrease in the average balances of loans of $22.2 million, or 8.5%, to $239.3 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 from $261.5 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 and a decrease in the yield on loans to 5.43% for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 from 5.52% for the nine months ended March 31, 2012. The decrease in loan balances is the result of competition and reduced demand for loans in our market area. Interest income on investment securities increased by $228 thousand, or 37.5%, to $836 thousand for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 from $608 thousand for the nine months ended March 31, 2012. The increase reflected an increase in the average balance of securities to $80.3 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 from $50.9 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2012. The increase in average balances offset the decrease in yields on such securities to 1.39% from 1.59% for the same periods. The increase in average balances of our investment securities is reflective of our efforts to invest excess funds available from loan repayments coupled with a declining demand for residential mortgage loans in our market area.

Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased $829 thousand, or 32.7%, to $1.7 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 from $2.5 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2012. The decrease reflected a decrease in the average rate paid on deposits in the nine months ended March 31, 2013 to 0.79% from 1.17% in the nine months ended March 31, 2012, which offset the increase in the average balances of deposits of $440 thousand to $288.2 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 from $287.8 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2012. The largest decrease in interest expense came from certificates of deposit, which decreased $710 thousand, or 31.8%, as the average balance of certificates of deposits decreased $4.3 million, or 1.9%, to $223.8 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 from $228.1 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2012, and the average rate paid on these deposits decreased to 0.91% from 1.30% for the same periods.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income decreased slightly by $57 thousand, or 0.63%, to $8.9 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 from $9.0 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2012. The decrease in net interest income is primarily attributed to the decrease in our net interest margin to 3.25% for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 from 3.29% for the nine months ended March 31, 2012, which more than offset the slight increase in our net interest spread to 3.08% for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 from 3.05% for the same period in 2012. The decline in our net interest margin reflects the continuing low interest rate environment from which we operate and declining demand for our one-to-four residential real estate loans.

Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 was $257 thousand compared with a provision of $224 thousand for the nine months ended March 31, 2012. Net charge-offs for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 were $367 thousand compared with $155 thousand for the nine months ended March 31, 2012. The increase in our provision reflected the increase in our net charge offs for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 as compared with the same period in 2012. Net charge offs for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 were primarily impacted by one large one-to-four residential real estate loan charge off of $277 thousand incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2013. Management believes that this charge off is not a reflection of our asset quality and is not indicative of a trend of increased loan losses. Our allowance for loan losses was $747 thousand at March 31, 2013 and $857 thousand at June 30, 2012.

Noninterest Income. Noninterest income increased by $9 thousand to $222 thousand for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 from $213 thousand for the nine months ended March 31, 2012. The increase was primarily related to an increase in gain on sales of real estate owned of $19 thousand and an increase in other noninterest income of $62 thousand for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 as compared with the same period in 2012. The increase in other noninterest income is primarily related to gains recognized upon foreclosure of one-to-four family residential real estate loans of $65 thousand for the nine months ended March 31, 2013. These increases were offset, partially, by a decrease in gain on sales of securities of $75 thousand for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 as compared with the same period in 2012.

Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 decreased by $300 thousand to $4.0 million compared with $4.3 million for the same period in 2012. The decrease in noninterest expenses was primarily related to a decrease of $471 thousand in the provision for real estate owned and related expenses, a decrease of $55 thousand in professional and supervisory fees, a decrease in other noninterest expenses of $59 thousand, and a decrease of $44 thousand in data processing expenses. The decrease in our provision for real estate owned and related expenses is primarily attributable to a lower provision for real estate owned during the nine months ended March 31, 2013 of $3 thousand compared with $337 thousand of provision during the nine months ended March 31, 2012 and to some extent a decrease in real estate owned related expenses. The decrease in these expenses is a reflection of a decrease in the average balance of real estate owned for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 to $903 thousand as compared with the average balance for the same period in 2012 of $1.9 million. Additionally, we have seen some slight and continued improvement in residential real estate home values since the period ended in 2012. We also experienced decreases in data processing and professional and supervisory fees for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 from the same period in 2012. These decreases in expenses more than offset the increase of $346 thousand in salaries and employee benefits to $2.5 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 from $2.1 million for the same period in 2012. The increase in salary and employee benefits is primarily related to our equity incentive plans that were not in place during the nine months ended March 31, 2012. Total expense related to our equity incentive programs and ESOP for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 was $369 thousand and $169 thousand, respectively.

Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 was $1.9 million compared with $1.8 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2012. Our effective income tax rate decreased slightly to 38.80% for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 from 39.25% for the nine months ended March 31, 2012.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary sources of funds are deposits and the proceeds from principal and interest payments on loans and investment securities. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and securities are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition. We generally manage the pricing of our deposits to be competitive within our market and to increase core deposit relationships.

Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term responsibility of management. We adjust our investments in liquid assets based upon management’s assessment of (i) expected loan demand, (ii) expected deposit flows, (iii) yields available on interest-earning deposits and investment securities, and (iv) the objectives of our asset/liability management program. Excess liquid assets are invested generally in interest-earning overnight deposits, federal funds sold, and short and intermediate-term U.S. Government sponsored agencies and mortgage-backed securities of short duration. If we require funds beyond our ability to generate them internally, we have credit available under a loan agreement with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta in the amount of 11% assets (as of March 31, 2013), or approximately $41.1 million.

Common Stock Dividend Policy. The Company’s Board of Directors declared $0.10 per share cash dividends on its common stock on January 27, 2013. Dividends were paid to stockholders of record as of February 7, 2013. Total dividends

paid for the three months ended March 31, 2012 were $626 thousand. Total dividends paid during the nine months ended March 31, 2013 were $1.8 million. In addition, subsequent to March 31, 2013, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.10 per share, payable to shareholders of record on May 9, 2013 and payable on or about May 23, 2013.
