FIDELITY & TRUST FINANCIAL CORPORATION

 

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AS OF AND FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2008 AND 2007(UNAUDITED) AND THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2007 AND 2006

 

1.       NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Organization and Description of Business — Fidelity & Trust Financial Corporation (“F&T Financial”) is a state-chartered bank holding company that was incorporated in the state of Maryland on July 29, 2003. The principal activity of F&T Financial is the ownership of Fidelity & Trust Bank (“F&T Bank”). F&T Bank is the parent company of Fidelity & Trust Mortgage, Inc. (“F&T Mortgage”), a residential mortgage banking company.

 

F&T Financial is headquartered in Bethesda, Maryland and commenced business on November 14, 2003. On November 14, 2003, F&T Financial issued 1,466,905 shares of common stock, of which 855,555 common shares were issued to F&T Mortgage for all of its outstanding common and preferred stock. Also, on November 14, 2003, F&T Financial acquired all of the outstanding shares of F&T Bank, while F&T Bank acquired all of the outstanding shares of F&T Mortgage.

 

F&T Bank is a state-chartered commercial bank primarily engaged in the business of providing general commercial and consumer banking services to small-and medium-sized businesses, professionals, and consumers, as well as providing banking services to customers of F&T Mortgage. F&T Bank commenced operations on November 17, 2003 and operates from three branches in Maryland: Bethesda, Silver Spring and Rockville; two branches in Washington, DC: Eye Street and Georgetown; and one branch in Tysons Corner, Virginia.  F&T Bank was managed as two business units, a Community Banking unit and a Mortgage Banking unit.

 

F&T Mortgage was incorporated in the state of Maryland on November 14, 2000, and commenced operations on August 1, 2001. F&T Mortgage was a full-service residential mortgage banking company that offered a broad array of home mortgage products through a team of loan originators and multiple lending offices. F&T Mortgage was headquartered in Chevy Chase, Maryland until August 20, 2007, when certain assets were sold and the sales force and lending offices were transferred to the purchaser.  F&T Mortgage discontinued originating loans on that date and a small wind-down staff was retained to fund the remaining pipeline and sell the mortgage loans held for sale.  Note 22 discusses the impact of the discontinued operations.

 

The accounting and reporting policies of F&T Financial are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and conform to general practices within the banking industry. The more significant of these policies are discussed below.

 

Principles of Consolidation — The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of F&T Financial, F&T Bank, and F&T Mortgage (collectively, “Fidelity & Trust”). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements- The consolidated financial statements for the interim periods are unaudited; however, they reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals, which in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the results for the periods presented.  The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the remainder of the year, or for any other period.

 

Use of Estimates — Management of Fidelity & Trust has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the

 

6



 

United States of America. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses and the reserve for representations and warranties and the valuation of deferred tax assets.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Significant Group Concentrations of Credit Risk — Most of Fidelity & Trust’s activities are with customers located within the metropolitan Washington, D.C. region.  Note 3 discusses the types of securities in which Fidelity & Trust invests.  Notes 5 and 6 discuss the types of lending in which Fidelity & Trust engages.  Fidelity & Trust does not have any significant concentrations to any one industry or customer.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents — For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from banks, and federal funds sold, all of which mature in 90 days or less.

 

Investment Securities — Investments in debt and equity securities classified as available-for-sale are stated at fair value, based on quoted market prices, with net unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, reported as a separate component of shareholders’ equity.

 

A decline in the fair value of any available-for-sale or held-to-maturity security below cost that is deemed other-than-temporary is charged to earnings resulting in the establishment of a new cost basis for the security. There were no such charges in the six months ended June 30, 2008 or in the years ended 2007 or 2006.

 

Dividend and interest income is recognized when earned. Realized gains and losses for securities classified as available-for-sale are included in earnings and are derived using the specific identification method for determining the cost of securities sold.

 

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities — Fidelity & Trust adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities, SFAS No. 138, Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activity, an amendment of SFAS No. 133, SFAS No. 149, Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities and SFAS No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments, an amendment of SFAS No. 133.

 

In 2006, F&T Mortgage initiated the use of mortgage-backed securities futures, a type of derivative instrument, and continued the use of U.S. Treasury futures, another type of derivative instrument, to mitigate the risk of uncommitted mortgage loans. A derivative is a financial instrument that derives its cash flows, and therefore its value, by reference to an underlying instrument, index or referenced interest rate. SFAS No. 133 requires that all derivative instruments be recorded on the balance sheet as assets or liabilities, at their respective fair values, regardless of the purpose or intent for holding the derivative. If a derivative does not qualify as a hedge under SFAS No. 133, all gains or losses from the change in the derivative’s estimated fair value are recognized in earnings. The gains or losses from the change in estimated fair value of derivatives that qualify as hedges under SFAS No. 133 are recognized in earnings or other comprehensive income depending on the type of hedge relationship. Fidelity & Trust does not qualify for fair value or cash flow hedge accounting treatment, therefore all gains or losses are recognized in earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and for the years ended 2007 and 2006.  F&T Mortgage ceased derivative activity in the second quarter of 2007.

 

Portfolio Loans — Loans are stated at the principal amount outstanding, net of unearned income and deferred costs. Interest income is accrued on loans as earned on the outstanding principal balances. Nonrefundable loan fees and direct origination costs are deferred and recognized over the lives of the related loans as adjustments of yield. Accrual of interest is discontinued when management believes, after considering economic business conditions and collection efforts, the borrower’s financial condition is such that collection of interest is doubtful. Any accrued interest considered uncollectible is charged against interest income.

 

The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses, which is charged to expense. Loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses when management believes that the collectibility of

 

7



 

the principal is unlikely. The allowance is a current estimate of the probable losses inherent in the current loan portfolio based upon management’s evaluation of that portfolio. Estimates of probable losses inherent in the portfolio involve the exercise of judgment and the use of assumptions. The evaluation takes into consideration such factors as changes in the nature, volume and quality of the loan portfolio, prior loss experience, level of nonperforming loans, current and anticipated general economic conditions and the value and adequacy of collateral.

 

A loan is considered impaired when, based on all current information and events, it is probable that Fidelity & Trust will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the agreement, including all scheduled principal and interest payments. Such impaired loans are measured based on the present value of the expected future cash flows, discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or, as a practical expedient, impairment may be measured based on the loan’s observable market price, or if, the loan is collateral-dependent, the fair value of the collateral. When the measure of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan, the impairment is recorded through a valuation allowance. Loans for which foreclosure is probable continue to be accounted for as loans. Upon foreclosure, loans are reclassified as other real estate owned.

 

Each impaired loan is evaluated to determine the income recognition policy. Payments received are applied in accordance with the contractual terms of the note or as a reduction of principal.

 

Loans Held for Sale — SFAS No. 91, Accounting for Nonrefundable Fees and Costs Associated with Originating or Acquiring Loans and Initial Direct Costs of Leases, requires the deferral of loan origination fees and direct loan origination costs over the estimated life of the loans for loans originated and not sold as of the end of the year. Fidelity & Trust has deferred the fees and costs attributable to these loans and will recognize them at the time of sale of the loans.

 

In March 2004, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 105 to provide accounting guidance related to the timing of recognition of income on loan commitments. The pronouncement stated that all loan income is deferred until the loan is sold. Fidelity & Trust instituted this policy during the second quarter of 2004.

 

In April 2002, the FASB issued final accounting guidance related to interest rate lock commitments. Based on the operations of Fidelity & Trust, all interest rate lock commitments are considered derivatives.  Fidelity & Trust stopped making interest rate lock commitments on August 20, 2007 and the final commitment was honored on September 11, 2007.

 

Mortgage loans held for sale are recorded in the aggregate at the lower of cost or fair value.  The fair values and the information used to record valuation adjustments for mortgage loans held for sale are based either on quoted market prices or are provided by other third-party sources, when available.  Gains and losses from the sale of mortgage loans, which are not reflected in the basis adjustment on closed loans in accordance with SFAS No. 133, are recognized at the time of sale and are determined by the difference between the net sales proceeds of the loans and related servicing and the carrying value of the mortgage loans sold.

 

Recognition of gains and losses is based on SFAS No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities, which was effective for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishment of liabilities occurring after March 31, 2001. SFAS No. 140 is based on consistent application of a financial-concepts approach that focuses on control. Under that approach, after a transfer of financial assets, an entity recognizes the financial and servicing assets it controls and the liabilities it has incurred, derecognizes financial assets when control has been surrendered, and derecognizes liabilities when extinguished.

 

Cash flows from the origination and sale of mortgage loans held for sale are reported as cash provided by operating activities from discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of cash flows for each of the periods presented.

 

8



 

Receivables — Receivables consist of funds due from various investors and borrowers.

 

Premises and Equipment — Premises and equipment, including leasehold improvements, are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets or, for leasehold improvements, the shorter of the estimated useful life or the term of the underlying lease. These estimated useful lives range from one to ten years. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred and improvements are capitalized. The cost and accumulated depreciation and amortization of assets retired or otherwise disposed of are removed from the books, and gain or loss on disposition is credited or charged to earnings.

 

Income Taxes — Pursuant to SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to be in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in earnings in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

Comprehensive Income (Loss) — Comprehensive income (loss) represents all changes in equity of an enterprise that result from recognized transactions and other economic events during the period. Other comprehensive income refers to revenues, expenses, gains, and losses that under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America are included in comprehensive income (loss) but excluded from net income (loss). Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities are the components of Fidelity & Trust’s other comprehensive income (loss).

 

Earnings per Share — Earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

 

Earnings per share, assuming dilution, is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding and the additional common shares that would have been outstanding if any dilutive potential common shares had been issued.

 

Other Real Estate Owned — Assets acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are held for sale and are initially recorded at fair value at the date of foreclosure, establishing a new book value. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management and the assets are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Changes in the valuation allowance are included in net expenses from foreclosed assets.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements — Below are the new accounting pronouncements that relate to activities in which Fidelity & Trust is engaged:

 

SFAS No. 157 Fair Value Measurements

 

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. This statement provides a definition of fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires expanded disclosures about fair value measurements.  The standard applies when accounting principles generally accepted in the /United States (GAAP) requires or allows assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value and, therefore, does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstance.  Statement No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Fidelity & Trust adopted SFAS No. 157 as of January 1, 2008 and the adoption did not have any impact on its balance sheets, results of operations or cash flows.  The adoption of this standard resulted in additional disclosures which are presented in Note 4.  In February 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157, which provided for a one-year deferral of the implementation of this standard for other non-financial assets and liabilities, effective for fiscal years

 

9



 

beginning after November 15, 2008.  This additional guidance is not expected to have a material impact on Fidelity & Trust’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

 

SFAS No. 159 The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities

 

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. This statement allows entities the option to measure eligible financial instruments at fair value as of specified dates.  Such election, which may be applied on an instrument-by-instrument basis, is typically irrevocable once elected.  This Statement requires companies to provide additional information that will help investors and other users of financial statements to more easily understand the effect of the company’s choice to use fair value on its earnings.  Statement No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Fidelity & Trust has elected not to measure any new financial instruments at fair value, as permitted in SFAS No. 159, but to continue recording its financial instruments in accordance with current practice.

 

SFAS No. 160 Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 151

 

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements.  This statement requires noncontrolling or minority interests in subsidiaries be presented in the consolidated statement of financial position within equity, but separate from the parent’s equity, and that the amount of the consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest be clearly identified and presented on the face of the consolidated statement of income. SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008.  Fidelity & Trust does not expect this guidance to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

 

FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) FAS No. 140-3, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets and Repurchase Financing Transactions

 

In February 2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS No. 140-3, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets and Repurchase Financing Transactions, which provides a consistent framework for the evaluation of a transfer of a financial asset and subsequent repurchase agreement entered into with the same counterparty.  FSP FAS No. 140-3 provides guidelines that must be met in order for an initial transfer and subsequent repurchase agreement to not be considered linked for evaluation.  If the transactions do not meet the specified criteria, they are required to be accounted for as one transaction.  This FSP is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, and shall be applied prospectively to initial transfers and repurchase financings for which the initial transfer is executed on or after adoption.  Fidelity & Trust does not expect this guidance to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

 

SFAS No. 161 Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

 

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.  This statement requires specific disclosures regarding the location and amounts of derivative instruments in the financial statements; how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for; and how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect the financial position, financial performance, and cash flows.  SFAS is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods after November 15, 2008.  Early application is permitted.  Fidelity & Trust does not expect the guidance to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

 

SFAS No. 162 The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles

 

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.  This statement identifies the sources for generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the U.S. and lists the categories in descending order.  An entity should follow the highest category of GAAP applicable for each of its accounting transactions.  The adoption of this statement did not have a material effect on Fidelity & Trust’s consolidated financial statements.

 

10



 

FIN No. 48 Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109

 

In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. FIN 48 clarifies when tax benefits should be recorded in financial statements, requires certain disclosures of uncertain tax matters and indicates how any tax reserves should be classified in a balance sheet. FIN 48 is effective for Fidelity & Trust in the first quarter of fiscal 2008. The application of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on Fidelity & Trust’s consolidated financial statements.

 

Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements

 

In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued SAB No. 108,  Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements. This bulletin provides interpretive guidance on the consideration of prior year misstatements in quantifying the materiality of current year misstatements. SAB No. 108 is effective for fiscal years ending after November 15, 2006. The adoption of this bulletin did not have a material impact on Fidelity & Trust’s consolidated financial statements.

 

Reclassifications — Reclassifications to prior year amounts have been made to conform to current year presentation for the discontinued operations identified during 2007, as noted in Note 22.

 

2.                      CASH AND DUE FROM BANKS

 

Under Federal Reserve Bank (FRB) regulations, banks are required to maintain cash reserves based upon average deposits. Assets qualified to meet these reserve requirements consist of vault cash and balances on deposit with the FRB. F&T Bank’s reserve requirements were $1.3 million, $897,000 and $718,000 for the periods ending June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

United States Government Sponsored Enterprise (“GSE”) Securities

 

Fidelity’s investments in GSE securities consist of debt obligations of the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC”), the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”), and the Federal Farm Credit Bank (“FFCB”).  The decline in market value is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality, and because Fidelity has the ability and intent to hold those securities until a recovery of fair value, which may be maturity, Fidelity does not consider those securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2008.

 

Mortgage-Backed Securities

 

Fidelity’s investments in mortgage-backed securities consist of GSE mortgage-backed securities and government agency mortgage-backed securities.  The unrealized losses on Fidelity’s investments in mortgage-backed securities were caused by interest rate increases from the date of purchase.  The contractual cash flows of those investments in GSE mortgage-backed securities are debt obligations of the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC”) and the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA”).  The cash flows related to government agency mortgage-backed securities are direct obligations of the U.S. Government.  The decline in market value is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality, and because Fidelity has the ability and intent to hold those securities until a recovery of fair value, which may be maturity, Fidelity does not consider those securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2008.

For the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 and the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, there were no sales of securities available-for-sale.

 

F&T Bank regularly reviews its investment portfolio for factors that may indicate that a decline in fair value of an investment is other than temporary. Based on its evaluation, F&T Bank has concluded that the declines in the fair values of the investments at June 30, 2008 are temporary.

 

4.      FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

Fidelity & Trust adopted SFAS No. 157 and SFAS No. 159, effective January 1, 2008.  SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, provides a framework for measuring fair value under GAAP.  This standard applies to all financial assets and liabilities that are being measured and reported at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis. For Fidelity & Trust, this includes the investment securities available-for-sale (“AFS”) portfolio.

 

As defined in SFAS No. 157, fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In determining fair value, Fidelity & Trust uses various methods including market and income approaches.  Based on these approaches, Fidelity & Trust often utilizes certain assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.  These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable firm inputs.  Fidelity & Trust utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.  Based on the observability of the inputs used in the valuation techniques, Fidelity & Trust is required to provide the following information according to the fair value hierarchy.  The hierarchy ranks the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values.  The hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices available in active markets and the lowest priority to data lacking transparency.  Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value will be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

 

Level 1

Quoted prices for identical instruments that are highly liquid, observable and actively traded in over-the-counter markets. Level 1 financial instruments typically include U.S. Treasury securities.

 

 

Level 2

Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable and can be corroborated by market data. Level 2 financial instruments typically include U.S. Government and agency mortgage-backed securities.

 

 

Level 3

Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation. This category typically includes private label mortgage-backed securities, impaired loans and mortgage servicing rights.

 

In determining the appropriate levels, Fidelity & Trust performs a detailed analysis of assets and liabilities that are subject to SFAS No. 157.  For all periods shown, all of Fidelity & Trust’s financial liabilities are reported at their carrying value.  The following tables present information about Fidelity & Trust’s assets measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis as of June 30, 2008.  These assets are reported on the

 

15



 

consolidated balance sheets at their fair values.  As required by SFAS No. 157, financial assets are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to their fair value measurement.

 

Securities available-for-sale and loans held for sale are the only balance sheet categories Fidelity & Trust is required by generally accepted accounting principles to account for at fair value.  The following tables present information about Fidelity & Trust’s assets measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis as of June 30, 2008, and indicate the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized by Fidelity & Trust to determine such fair value.

Valuation Methodologies

 

Securities Available-for-Sale - The fair values of available-for-sale securities are generally determined by reference to quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets.

 

Loans Held for Sale - The fair values and the information used to record valuation adjustments for mortgage loans held for sale are based either on quoted market prices or are provided by other third-party purchasers, when available.

Primarily all of F&T Bank’s portfolio loans at June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007 and 2006, consist of loans made within the greater Washington, DC metropolitan area. This includes real estate loans made for acquisition, renovation, or development for which a deed of trust on the subject property is the primary collateral.

 

Allowance for Portfolio Loan Losses — While management uses available information to recognize losses on portfolio loans, future additions to the allowance for existing loans may be necessary based on changes in economic and borrower conditions. Management believes that adequate allowances have been established to reflect possible losses on loans as of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007 and 2006.

 

Changes in the allowance for portfolio loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 and the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, are as follows:

Related-Party Loans — F&T Bank, in the normal course of business, makes loans to executive officers, directors and principal shareholders, as well as to companies and individuals affiliated with those officers and directors. In the opinion of management, these loans are consistent with sound banking practices, are within regulatory lending limits, and do not involve more than normal risk of collectibility. Activity in such loans for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, is summarized as follows:

Impaired Portfolio Loans – F&T Bank held loans deemed to be impaired totaling $4.1 million as of June 30, 2008, and $2.0 million and $2.1 million as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.  These loans are commercial purpose loans primarily secured by real estate collateral.  As of June 30, 2008, F&T Bank had $8.5 million in non-accrual loans, of which $666,000 were deemed to be impaired. As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, F&T Bank had no other loans on nonaccrual other than those deemed to be impaired loans.

 

6.                      LOANS HELD FOR SALE

 

Mortgage loans that F&T Mortgage originated with the intent to sell in the foreseeable future are initially recorded at cost including any premium or discount. Loans held for sale are carried on the books at the lower of cost or fair value calculated on an aggregate basis by type of loan. A lower of cost or market adjustment is recorded against mortgage loans held for sale when an aggregate pool of loans has a fair value below its cost. Mortgage loans held for sale, net, as of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007 and 2006, are as follows:

Reserve for Representations and Warranties — The reserve for representations and warranties is established for contingencies related to loans sold to investors with recourse. F&T Mortgage sold loans with recourse related to issues of fraud, early payment defaults or early loan payoffs. The reserve is established through charges to gains on sales of mortgage loans when management believes there is the likelihood that losses will be incurred on sold loans. Estimates of losses involve the exercise of judgment and the use of assumptions. The evaluations take into consideration such factors as changes in the nature, volume and quality of the loans held for sale portfolio, prior loss experience and current and anticipated general economic conditions.

 

Changes in the reserve for representations and warranties for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 and the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, are as follows:

Related-Party Loans Held for Sale — Mortgage loans to executive officers and directors of Fidelity & Trust were made with interest rates, terms and collateral requirements consistent with those required of other borrowers. There were no loans held for sale provided to executive officers and directors during the first six months of 2008 or the year ended December 31, 2007 and there were no such loans sold to third-party investors as of June 30, 2008 or December 31, 2007.  The aggregate amount of loans provided to executive officers and directors was $706,000 during 2006, of which $706,000 were sold to third-party investors as of December 31, 2006.

 

Impaired Loans on Loans Held for Sale — F&T Mortgage held no loans deemed to be impaired as of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, and $1.3 million deemed to be impaired as of December 31, 2006. These loans are residential mortgage loans which management considers as smaller-balance homogeneous loans. As such, management collectively evaluates them for impairment taking into consideration such factors as past loss experience, recent economic factors and portfolio delinquency rates. As of June 30, 2008, F&T Mortgage had $908,000 in loans on nonaccrual, and as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, F&T Mortgage had no other loans on nonaccrual other than those deemed to be impaired loans.

9.                      SECURITIES SOLD UNDER REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS

 

Securities sold under repurchase agreements are borrowings collateralized by securities of U.S. government agencies and have overnight maturities. They are entered into primarily as accommodations to F&T Bank’s large commercial deposit customers. Several of these customer relationships in the aggregate exceed 10% of F&T Financial’s shareholders’ equity. All of the collateral provided under these agreements is maintained under F&T Bank’s control.

 

Securities sold under repurchase agreements are summarized as follows:

10.     SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS

 

On August 24, 2006, F&T Mortgage entered into a Loan Participation Sale Agreement (LPS) with a warehouse lender. The commitment amount was $100 million. F&T Mortgage had no loans sold to the investor on the LPS line as of June 30, 2008 or December 31, 2007 and $47.3 million of mortgage loans sold to the investor on the LPS line as of December 31, 2006. The loans are considered sold; however, the service release premium is paid subsequent to the sale date, based on predetermined criteria. There was no outstanding receivable balance due as of June 30, 2008 or December 31, 2007 and an outstanding receivable balance of $1.0 million was due at December 31, 2006.

 

21



 

At December 31, 2006, F&T Mortgage maintained a warehouse line of credit with an investor with a commitment amount of $100 million. The warehouse line of credit was secured by the underlying loans held for sale and was repaid upon the sale of the mortgage loans. F&T Mortgage had a total of $72.4 million at December 31, 2006 in outstanding borrowings under this facility. F&T Bank purchased the line of credit from the investor, including the security interest in the underlying loans held for sale, on October 4, 2007.

 

The interest rates on the warehouse lines of credit as of December 31, 2006 ranged from 30-day LIBOR plus 1.50% to 3.50% based on the type of loan and lending requirements. At December 31, 2006, the interest rates on the amounts outstanding under the warehouse lines of credit were approximately 6.95%.  F&T Mortgage had no warehouse lines of credit outstanding as of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007.

 

At December 31, 2007, F&T Financial maintained a $7 million revolving line of credit with EagleBank.  That line was increased to $12.9 million in June 2008.  The line is secured by F&T Financial’s stock in F&T Bank.  F&T Financial had a total of $12.9 million and $3 million in outstanding borrowings under this line as of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively.  The interest rate on the line is prime minus 0.25% and the line expires on September 29, 2008.  The interest rate on the line was 4.75% and 7% at June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively.  The line was paid in full at the time of the merger with Eagle Bancorp, Inc. on August 31, 2008.

Fidelity & Trust believes that a valuation allowance with respect to the realization of the total gross deferred tax assets related to F&T Mortgage is necessary due to the magnitude of the losses incurred by F&T Mortgage and the discontinuation of its operations. Based on Fidelity & Trust’s historical taxable income, future expectations of taxable income, and the reversal of gross deferred tax liabilities, management believes it is more likely than not that Fidelity & Trust will realize all of the gross deferred tax assets existing at June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007 related to its continuing operations. However, there can be no assurance that Fidelity & Trust will generate taxable income in any future period or that the reversal of temporary differences attributable to gross deferred tax liabilities will occur during the future tax periods as currently expected.

 

12.               REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

 

F&T Bank is subject to various regulatory requirements. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on F&T Bank’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, F&T Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve the quantitative measures of its assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices.

 

The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Prompt corrective action provisions are not applicable to bank holding companies.

 

Quantitative measures established by the regulation to ensure capital adequacy require F&T Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the following table) of total and Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined) and of Tier 1 capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). Management believes, as of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, that F&T Bank met all capital adequacy requirements.

 

As of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, the notification from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation categorized F&T Bank as “well-capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as “well-capitalized”, F&T Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, and Tier 1 leverage ratios, as set forth below. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s category.

13.               SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

 

During 2007, F&T Financial repurchased 2,500 shares of stock at $11.50 per share and subsequently sold 4,364 shares to “accredited investors”, as defined under the Securities Act of 1933, at $11.50 per share.

 

During 2006, F&T Financial issued 1,100 shares upon exercise of its stock options. Also during 2006, F&T Financial repurchased 106,546 shares of stock at $11.50 per share and subsequently sold 100,000 shares to “accredited investors”, as defined under the Securities Act of 1933, at $11.50 per share.

 

Long-Term Incentive Plan — Fidelity & Trust’s 2005 and 2004 Long-Term Incentive Plans (“the Plans”), which are shareholder-approved, permits the grant of stock options and shares to its employees, consultants, or other independent contractors and any nonemployee directors for up to 211,500 shares and 315,500 shares of Common Stock, respectively. As options are exercised, new shares are issued from common stock authorized but not yet issued. Fidelity & Trust believes that such awards better align the interests of its employees, consultants and directors with those of its shareholders. Option awards are granted with an exercise price equal

 

26



 

to the market price of F&T Financial’s stock on the date of grant, which, as the stock is not publicly traded, is the fair market value determined by the Board in good faith. Option awards generally vest based on 4 years of continuous service and have 10-year contractual terms. No share awards have been issued. Option awards provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control (as defined in the Plans).

 

Fidelity & Trust implemented SFAS No. 123 (R), Accounting for Stock-based Compensation, on January 1, 2006, and is now required to recognize an expense over the required service period for any stock options granted after that date. Prior to January 1, 2006, Fidelity & Trust accounted for its stock-based compensation in accordance with the Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, which did not require recognition of compensation cost. The compensation cost that was charged against income for the Plans was $32,000 for the first six months of 2008 and $50,000 and $1,000 for 2007 and 2006, respectively. The total income tax benefit recognized in the income statement was $6,000 for the first six months of 2008 and $9,000 and less than $1,000 for 2007 and 2006, respectively.

 

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes-Merton option valuation model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table. Expected volatility is based on historical volatility of F&T Financial’s stock and other factors. Fidelity & Trust uses historical data to estimate option exercise and employee termination within the valuation model; separate groups of employees that have similar historical exercise behavior are considered separately for valuation purposes. The expected term of options granted is derived from the output of the option valuation model and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.  There were no option grants in the first six months of 2008.

At the time of the sale of F&T Mortgage assets and the cessation of mortgage company operations, F&T Mortgage Company employees held 37,029 non-vested options.  Those options became fully vested as of August 20, 2007 and are exercisable during the fourth quarter of 2008 at a weighted average exercise price of $10.72.

 

As of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, there was $229,000 and $198,000, respectively, of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the Plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.4 years. The total fair value of shares vested during the six months ended June 30, 2008 and the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 was $32,000, $97,000 and $77,000, respectively.

15.               EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS

 

At June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, Fidelity & Trust had employment agreements with several officers. These agreements have various terms, and automatically renew for additional periods unless either Fidelity & Trust or the officer gives written notice to terminate prior to the expiration of the initial term.

 

16.     401(K) PLAN

 

Fidelity & Trust has a defined contribution 401(k) plan. All employees who are at least 18 years of age are eligible to participate on the first day of the month following their hire date. Under the Plan, employees may contribute a percentage or dollar amount of their annual salary, subject to statutory limitations. Under the terms of the Plan, Fidelity & Trust may make discretionary contributions but is not required to do so.  Fidelity

& Trust made discretionary contributions totaling $78,000 and $144,000 for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.  No contributions have been made in the first six months of 2008.

 

17.               LEASE COMMITMENTS

 

Fidelity & Trust leases certain real property under long-term operating lease agreements.  Future minimum lease payments under these operating leases at June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007 are as follows:

18.               FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE-SHEET RISK

 

Fidelity & Trust is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet its investment and funding needs and the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to purchase investment securities and commitments to extend credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized or disclosed in the consolidated financial statements. The contractual or notional amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement Fidelity & Trust has in particular classes of financial instruments.

 

Fidelity & Trust’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual or notional amount of those instruments. Fidelity & Trust uses the same credit and collateral policies in making commitments to extend credit as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.

 

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since some commitments may expire without being funded, the commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Fidelity & Trust evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis.

Commitments to lend at June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007 and 2006 are summarized as follows:

19.               LEGAL CONTINGENCIES

 

Various legal claims can arise from time to time in the normal course of business. There were no significant asserted claims or assessments that management believes could result in a material impact to the results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows of Fidelity & Trust at the balance sheet date.  In connection with the discontinuation of F&T Mortgage operations, several mortgage loan purchasers have entered into actions against F&T Mortgage in connection with certain mortgage loan sales.  Based on the opinion of counsel, management believes the results of those actions would be restricted to F&T Mortgage only.  The total range of loss, if any, is not known at this time however, reserves of $90,000 and $175,000 were established as of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively, for some of these claims.

 

20.               FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practical to estimate that value:

 

(a)                      Cash and Cash Equivalents — For those short-term instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

 

(b)                     Securities Available-for-Sale — For U.S. agencies, quoted market prices are used to estimate fair value. If a quoted market price is not readily available, as is the case for equity securities such as Federal Reserve Bank stock, management believes that the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

 

(c)                      Portfolio Loans — The fair value of performing loans is estimated by discounting the estimated future cash flows of the loans using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities.

 

(d)       Loans Held for Sale — The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

 

(e)       Receivables — The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

 

(f)                        Non-Interest Bearing Deposits — The fair values of these deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date, since generally accepted accounting standards does not permit an assumption of core deposit value.

 

(g)                     Interest Bearing Deposits — The carrying values of passbook and money market savings accounts are reasonable estimates of fair value. The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

 

(h)                     Securities Sold Under Repurchase Agreements — The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

 

32



 

(i)                         Short-Term Borrowings — The fair values for short-term borrowings are determined based on interest rates currently available for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities.

 

(j)                         Derivative Financial Instruments — The fair values for securities futures contracts are based on the amounts required to settle the contracts.

 

(k)                      Off-Balance Sheet Credit-Related Instruments  — Fair values for off-balance sheet credit-related instruments, commitments to extend credit and stand-by letters of credit,  are based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing.

 

The estimated fair values of Fidelity & Trust’s financial instruments at June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007 and 2006, are as follows:

21.    DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

F&T Mortgage had derivative financial instruments in the form of Treasury and mortgage-backed securities futures contracts which were used to manage interest rate risk in the mortgage loan pipeline.  F&T Mortgage had no derivative financial instruments as of June 30, 2008 or December 31, 2007.

 

As of December 31, 2006, F&T Mortgage was party to multiple Treasury futures contracts totaling $37.1 million in notional amount which expired in March 2007 and mortgage-backed securities futures contracts totaling $18 million in notional amount which expired in January 2007. These contracts were used to manage the interest rate risk on the mortgage loan pipeline held for sale under bulk trades.

 

The derivative financial instruments did not qualify as hedges for accounting purposes as defined by SFAS No. 133. As such, the fair value of the derivative financial instruments was reflected as an asset or a liability in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets with the offset recorded as an unrealized gain or loss on derivative instruments, net, in the consolidated statements of operations. The fair values of the derivative financial instruments were gains of $258,000 as of December 31, 2006.

 

22.    DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

 

On August 20, 2007, F&T Mortgage and F&T Bank executed an Asset Purchase Agreement to sell certain assets of F&T Mortgage to a third-party buyer, with the intention of no longer originating and selling residential mortgage loans.  F&T Mortgage’s loan origination activities ceased in September 2007 after the completion of the final interest rate lock commitment.  F&T Mortgage ceased accepting loan applications on August 20, 2007.  As part of the asset sale, all F&T Mortgage branch locations and branch personnel transferred to the purchaser.  Assets sold included furniture, fixtures and equipment, computer hardware and leasehold improvements of the branch locations transferred to the purchaser and the related security deposits and rental payments advanced for those branches.  Total proceeds of sale were $404,635 with no gain or loss recorded on sale as the assets were sold at current book value.  No mortgage loans were sold to the purchaser.  The remaining assets of F&T Mortgage were loans held for sale of approximately $75 million, of which substantially all have been sold to independent third-parties and F&T Mortgage’s corporate headquarters closed as of December 31, 2007.  The remaining $5 million of unpaid principal balance in loans held for sale are intended to be sold and buyers are in the process of being sought out.  As of June 30, 2008, these loans were recorded at the lower of cost or fair market value, and as such, were valued at approximately $3.2 million.

 

Fidelity & Trust assessed the classification of the operations and cash flows from F&T Mortgage in accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, and concluded that it met the conditions in order for the results of operations and cash flows to be reported as discontinued operations.  Based on the transaction described above, the operations and cash flows of F&T Mortgage have been eliminated from ongoing operations.  Furthermore, Fidelity & Trust has no significant continuing involvement in the assets and liabilities sold from F&T Mortgage.  Fidelity & Trust has been involved in selling the remaining assets held for sale, but has no further involvement or intentions of continuing the business of originating residential mortgage loans for the purpose of resale.  Furthermore, the assets of F&T Mortgage which were sold included the loan origination platform, branch locations, and human capital of the origination operation.  F&T Bank has no intention of beginning to originate loans to be sold.

24.   SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

On December 2, 2007, F& T Financial and Eagle Bancorp, Inc. entered into a definitive merger agreement providing for the acquisition of F&T Financial by Eagle Bancorp.  After receiving regulatory and shareholder approvals, the merger became effective on August 31, 2008.  The combination was structured as a stock-for-stock exchange, under which F&T Financial’s shareholders received 0.3894 shares of Eagle common stock per F&T Financial share owned.  Per the terms of the agreement and plan of merger, the exchange ratio was based upon various adjustments to F&T Financial’s September 30, 2007 book value such as operating losses of F&T Mortgage, increases to the allowance for loan losses necessary to conform to EagleBank’s policies and increases to valuation adjustments for loans held for sale.  In connection with the transaction, F&T Bank was merged into EagleBank, with EagleBank being the surviving entity.
