Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited) (continued)
 
(Dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)
 
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

Nature of Operations: Consumers Bancorp, Inc. is a bank holding company headquartered in Minerva, Ohio that provides, through its banking subsidiary, a broad array of products and services throughout its primary market area of Stark, Columbiana, Carroll and contiguous counties in Ohio. The Bank’s business involves attracting deposits from businesses and individual customers and using such deposits to originate commercial, mortgage and consumer loans in its primary market area.

Basis of Presentation: The consolidated financial statements for interim periods are unaudited and reflect all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments), which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The unaudited financial statements are presented in accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q and do not include all disclosures normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Consumers Bancorp, Inc.’s Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2010. The results of operations for the interim period disclosed herein are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year.

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

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

Allowance for Loan Losses: The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectability of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. Management estimates the allowance balance required based on past loan loss experience, the nature of the portfolio, information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values, economic conditions and other factors. Allocations of the allowance may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in management’s judgment, should be charged-off.

The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are individually classified as impaired. The general component covers loans not individually evaluated for impairment and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for current factors. The historical loss experience is determined by portfolio segment and is based on the actual loss history experienced by the Company over the most recent three years.  This actual loss experience is supplemented with other economic factors based on the risks present for each portfolio segment. These economic factors include consideration of the following:  levels of and trends in delinquencies and impaired loans; levels of and trends in charge-offs and recoveries; trends in volume and terms of loans; effects of any changes in risk selection and underwriting standards; other changes in lending policies, procedures, and practices; experience, ability, and depth of lending management and other relevant staff; national and local economic trends and conditions; industry conditions; and effects of changes in credit concentrations. The following portfolio segments have been identified:  commercial, commercial real estate, residential real estate and consumer.

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Corporation will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Loans, for which the terms have been modified and for which the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties, are considered trouble debt restructurings and classified as impaired. Impairment is evaluated in total for smaller-balance loans of similar nature such as residential mortgage, consumer loans and on an individual loan basis for other loans. If a loan is impaired, a portion of the allowance is allocated so the loan is reported, net, at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s existing rate or at the fair value of collateral if repayment is expected from the collateral. Loans are evaluated for impairment when payments are delayed, typically 90 days or more, or when it is probable that not all principal and interest amounts will be collected according to the original terms of the loan. Troubled debt restructures are measured at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loans’s effective interest rate at inception.

Earnings per Share:  Earnings per common share are computed based on the weighted average common shares outstanding. The weighted average number of outstanding shares was 2,044,179 and 2,033,289 for the quarters ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The weighted average number of outstanding shares was 2,041,402 and 2,031,498 for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The Corporation’s capital structure contains no dilutive securities.

Reclassifications: Certain items in prior financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

New Accounting Standards Updates: On July 21, 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2010-20, “Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses,” which requires significant new disclosures about the allowance for credit losses and the credit quality of financing receivables. The requirements are intended to enhance transparency regarding credit losses and the credit quality of loan and lease receivables. Under this statement, allowance for credit losses and fair value are to be disclosed by portfolio segment, while credit quality information, impaired financing receivables and non-accrual status are to be presented by class of financing receivable. Disclosure of the nature and extent, the financial impact and segment information of troubled debt restructurings will also be required. The disclosures are to be presented at the level of disaggregation that management uses when assessing and monitoring the portfolio’s risk and performance. This ASU is effective for interim and annual reporting periods after December 15, 2010. See Note 3 - Loans.

On April 5, 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-02, “Receivables (Topic 310): A Creditor’s Determination of Whether a Restructuring Is a Troubled Debt Restructuring,” to assist creditors in determining whether a modification of the terms of a receivable meets the definition of a troubled debt restructuring (TDR). This statement does not change the long-standing guidance that a restructuring of a debt constitutes a TDR if the creditor for economic or legal reasons related to the debtor’s financial difficulties grants a concession to the debtor that it would not otherwise consider. The ASU provides clarifications for evaluating whether a concession has been granted and whether a debtor is experiencing financial difficulties. The new guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after June 15, 2011, and applied retrospectively to restructurings occurring on or after the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. The effect of adopting this new guidance is not expected to have a significant impact on the Corporation’s financial statements.

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI) on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such an evaluation. The securities portfolio is evaluated for OTTI by segregating the portfolio into two general segments and applying the appropriate OTTI model. Investment securities are generally evaluated for OTTI under FASB ASC Topic 320, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. However, the trust preferred security is evaluated using the model outlined in FASB ASC Topic 325,  Recognition of Interest Income and Impairment on Purchased Beneficial Interests and Beneficial Interests that Continue to be Held by a Transfer in Securitized Financial Assets.
 
In determining OTTI under the ASC Topic 320 model, management considers many factors, including: (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, (3) whether the market decline was affected by macroeconomic conditions, and (4) whether the entity has the intent to sell the debt security or more likely than not will be required to sell the debt security before its anticipated recovery. The assessment of whether an other-than-temporary decline exists involves a high degree of subjectivity and judgment and is based on the information available to management at a point in time.

The second segment of the portfolio uses the OTTI guidance provided by ASC Topic 325. Under the ASC Topic 325 model, the present value of the remaining cash flows as estimated at the preceding evaluation date are compared to the current expected remaining cash flows. An OTTI is deemed to have occurred if there has been an adverse change in the remaining expected future cash flows. The analysis of the trust preferred security falls within the scope of ASC Topic 325.

The Corporation owns a trust preferred security, which represents collateralized debt obligations (CDOs) issued by other financial and insurance companies. The following table summarizes the relevant characteristics of the pooled-trust-preferred security at March 31, 2011. The security is part of a pool of issuers that support a more senior tranche of securities. Due to the illiquidity in the market, it is unlikely the Corporation would be able to recover its investment in this security if the Corporation sold the security at this time.

(1) Security was determined to have other-than-temporary impairment. As such, the book value is net of recorded credit impairment.

(2) Excess subordination percentage represents the additional defaults in excess of both current and projected defaults that the security can absorb before the bond experiences credit impairment. Excess subordinated percentage is calculated by: (a) determining what percentage of defaults a deal can experience before the bond has credit impairment, and (b) subtracting from this default breakage percentage both total current and expected future default percentages.

Due to an increase in principal and/or interest deferrals by the issuers of the underlying securities, the cash interest payments for the trust preferred security are being deferred. On March 31, 2011, the lowest credit rating on this security was Fitch’s rating of C, which is defined as highly speculative. The issuers in this security are primarily banks, bank holding companies and a limited number of insurance companies. The investment security is evaluated using a model to compare the present value of expected cash flows to prior periods expected cash flows to determine if there has been an adverse change in cash flows during the period. The discount rate used to calculate the cash flows is the coupon rate of the security, based on the forward LIBOR curve. The OTTI model considers the structure and term of the CDO and the financial condition of the underlying issuers. Specifically, the model details interest rates, principal balances of note classes and underlying issuers, the timing and amount of interest and principal payments of the underlying issuers, and the allocation of the payments to the note classes. The current estimate of expected cash flows is based on the most recent trustee reports and any other relevant market information including announcements of interest payment deferrals or defaults of underlying trust preferred securities. Assumptions used in the model include expected future default rates and prepayments. We assume no recoveries on defaults and all interest payment deferrals are treated as defaults with an assumed recovery rate of 15% on deferrals. In addition we use the model to “stress” the CDO, or make assumptions more severe than expected activity, to determine the degree to which assumptions could deteriorate before the CDO could no longer fully support repayment of the Corporation’s note class. According to the March 31, 2011 analysis, the expected cash flows were below the recorded amortized cost of the trust preferred security. Therefore, management determined it was appropriate to record an other-than-temporary impairment loss of $150 during the three month period ended March 31, 2011, bringing the total impairment loss to $200 for the nine month period ended March 31, 2011. Management has reviewed this security and these conclusions with an independent third party. If there is further deterioration in the underlying collateral of this security, other-than-temporary impairments may also occur in future periods.

Troubled Debt Restructurings:

The Corporation allocated $50 and $3 of specific reserves to customers whose loan terms have been modified in troubled debt restructurings as of March 31, 2011 and June 30, 2010. As of March 31, 2011 and June 30, 2010, the Corporation had not committed to lend any additional amounts to customers with outstanding loans that are classified as troubled debt restructurings.

Credit Quality Indicators:
The Corporation categorizes loans into risk categories based on 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. The Corporation analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk. This analysis includes loans with a total outstanding loan relationship greater than $100,000 and non-homogeneous loans, such as commercial and commercial real estate loans. This analysis is performed on a monthly basis. The Corporation uses the following definitions for risk ratings:

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 the 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.

Loans not meeting the criteria above that are analyzed individually as part of the above described process are considered to be pass rated loans. Loans listed as not rated are either less than $100,000 or are included in groups of homogeneous loans. As of March 31, 2011, and based on the most recent analysis performed, the recorded investment by risk category of loans by class of loans is as follows:

Note 4 - Fair Value

Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. 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 company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. Valuation techniques include use of discounted cash flow models and similar techniques.

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

Securities: When available, the fair values of available-for-sale securities are determined by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges (Level 1 inputs). If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are estimated using matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely used in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities, but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 2 inputs). For securities where quoted prices or market prices of similar securities are not available, fair values are estimated using a discounted cash flow model and market liquidity premium (Level 3 inputs). Discounted cash flows are calculated using spread to the swap and LIBOR curves. Rating agency and industry research reports as well as defaults and deferrals on individual securities are reviewed and incorporated into the calculations.

Federal bank and other restricted stocks includes stock acquired for regulatory purposes, such as Federal Home Loan Bank stock and Federal Reserve Bank stock that are accounted for at cost due to restrictions placed on their transferability; and therefore, are not subject to the fair value disclosure requirements.

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 usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.

Other Real Estate Owned: Nonrecurring adjustments to certain commercial and residential real estate properties classified as other real estate owned (OREO) 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.

Impaired loans, which are generally measured for impairment using the fair value of the collateral for collateral dependant loans, had a principal balance of $2,450, with a valuation allowance of $541 at March 31, 2011, resulting in an additional provision for loan losses of $303 being recorded for the nine month period ended March 31, 2011. Provision for loan losses recorded for the nine months ended March 31, 2010 related to impaired loans was $328. As of June 30, 2010, impaired loans with a principal balance of $1,918, with a valuation allowance of $543.

Other real estate owned which is measured at the lower of carrying or fair value less costs to sell, had a net carrying amount of $5, which is made up of the outstanding balance of $22, net of a valuation allowance of $17 at June 30, 2010, resulting in a write-down of $17 for the year ended June 30, 2010. There was no other real estate owned as of March 31, 2011.

For purposes of the above disclosures of estimated fair value, the following assumptions were used. Estimated fair value for cash and cash equivalents, accrued interest receivable and payable, demand and savings deposits and short-term borrowings were considered to approximate carrying value for instruments that reprice frequently and fully. Fair value for loans was estimated for portfolios of loans with similar financial characteristics. For adjustable rate loans that reprice at least annually and for fixed rate commercial loans with maturities of six months or less which possess normal risk characteristics, carrying value was determined to be fair value. Fair value of other types of loans (including adjustable rate loans which reprice less frequently than annually and fixed rate term loans or loans which possess higher risk characteristics) was estimated by discounting future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for similar anticipated maturities. Fair value for impaired loans was based on recent appraisals of the collateral or, if appropriate, using estimated discounted cash flows. The Corporation has not considered market illiquidity in estimating the fair value of loans due to uncertain and inconsistent market pricing being experienced on March 31, 2011. 

Fair value of core deposits, including demand deposits, savings accounts and certain money market deposits, was the amount payable on demand. Fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit was estimated using the rates offered at March 31, 2011 and June 30, 2010, for deposits of similar remaining maturities. Estimated fair value does not include the benefit that result from low-cost funding provided by the deposit liabilities compared to the cost of borrowing funds in the market. Fair value of short-term borrowings and accrued interest was determined to be the carrying amounts since these financial instruments generally represent obligations that are due on demand. Fair value of Federal Home Loan Bank advances was estimated using current rates at March 31, 2011 and June 30, 2010 for similar financing. The fair value of unrecorded commitments at March 31, 2011 and June 30, 2010 was not material.

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

(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)

General
The following is management’s analysis of the Corporation’s results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010, and the consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2011 compared to June 30, 2010. This discussion is designed to provide a more comprehensive review of the operating results and financial condition than could be obtained from an examination of the financial statements alone. This analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related footnotes and the selected financial data included elsewhere in this report.

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

Results of Operations
Three and Nine Months Ended March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2010

Net Income
Net income increased by $57 and $198 for the three and nine months periods ended March 31, 2011, respectively, as compared to the same periods last year. The increase in net income for the three and nine month periods was mainly attributable to an increase in net interest income as a result of an increase in average interest-earning assets and a decline in cost of funds from the same periods last year. Earnings per common share were $0.24 and $0.83 for the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 2011, as compared to $0.21 and $0.73, respectively, for the same periods last year.

Return on average equity (ROE) and return on average assets (ROA) were 8.11% and 0.68%, respectively, for the third quarter of fiscal year 2011 compared to 7.55% and 0.68%, respectively, for the third quarter of fiscal year 2010.

ROE and ROA were 9.28% and 0.81%, respectively, for the 2011 fiscal year-to-date period compared to 8.80% and 0.78%, respectively, for the same periods last year.

Net Interest Income
Net interest income, the difference between interest income earned on interest-earning assets and interest expense incurred on interest-bearing liabilities, is the largest component of the Corporation’s earnings. Net interest income is affected by changes in the volumes, rates and composition of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest margin is calculated by dividing net interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis (FTE) by total average interest-earning assets. FTE income includes tax-exempt income, restated to a pre-tax equivalent, based on the statutory federal income tax rate. All average balances are daily average balances. Non-accruing loans are included in average loan balances.

The Corporation’s net interest margin for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was 4.20%, compared to 4.41% for the same period a year ago. Net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2011 increased by $183, or 7.2%, to $2,708 from $2,525 for the same year ago period. The increase in net interest income was primarily the result of an increase of $31,644, or 13.1%, in average interest-earning assets and a decline in the Corporation’s cost of funds. The Corporation’s cost of funds decreased to 0.89% for the three month period ended March 31, 2011 from 1.28% for the same year ago period mainly due to lower market rates affecting the rates paid on all interest-bearing deposit accounts and borrowings. These increases were partially offset by a decline in the yield on average interest-earning assets to 4.86% for the three month period ended March 31, 2011 from 5.41% from the same year ago period.

The Corporation’s net interest margin for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 was 4.25%, compared to 4.27% for the same year ago period. Net interest income for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 increased by $630, or 8.5%, to $8,077 from $7,447 for the same year ago period. The increase in net interest income was primarily the result of an increase of $23,457, or 9.7%, in average interest-earning assets and a decline in the Corporation’s cost of funds. The Corporation’s cost of funds decreased to 1.01% for the nine month period ended March 31, 2011 from 1.45% for the same year age period mainly due to lower market rates affecting the rates paid on all interest-bearing deposit accounts and borrowings. These increases were partially offset by a decline in the yield on average interest-earning assets to 5.01% for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 from 5.39% from the same year ago period.

Provision for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses represents the charge to income necessary to adjust the allowance for loan losses to an amount that represents management's assessment of the estimated probable credit losses in the Bank’s loan portfolio that have been incurred at each balance sheet date. For the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 2011, the provision for loan losses was $100 and $344, a decrease of $10 and $109 from the same three and nine month periods in the prior year.

Net charge-offs for the nine months ending March 31, 2011 were $519, compared to $175 for the same period ending March 31, 2010. Net charge-offs for the period ending March 31, 2011 included $413 of commercial real estate and $58 of 1-4 family non-owner occupied residential real estate loans. The allowance for loan losses as a percent of total loans at March 31, 2011 was 1.19% compared with 1.31% at June 30, 2010 and from 1.33% a year ago.

Non-performing loans were $2,097 as of March 31, 2011 and represented 1.19% of total loans. This compared with $2,342, or 1.34%, at June 30, 2010 and $2,627, or 1.54%, as of March 31, 2010. The allowance for loan losses to total non-performing loans at March 31, 2011 was 100.19% compared with 97.18% at June 30, 2010 and 86.41% at March 31, 2010. Despite incurring a higher level of net charge-offs in the current year periods, the provision for loan losses decreased compared to the prior year three and nine month periods due to a decline in the level of nonperforming loans. In addition, the level of specific allocations on impaired loans remained stable in the current fiscal year while specific allocations on impaired loans were increasing during the prior fiscal year. The provision for loan losses as of March 31, 2011 was considered sufficient by management for maintaining an appropriate allowance for loan losses.
 
Non-Interest Income
Non-interest income totaled $402 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2011, compared to $399 for the same period last year. Adjusted for an impairment loss on the trust preferred security and losses on the sale of other real estate owned, non-interest income totaled $552 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2011, compared with $550 for the same period last year.

Service charges on deposits decreased by $32, or 9.6%, during the third fiscal quarter of 2011 mainly due to a new rule issued by the Federal Reserve Board that became effective in August 2010 that prohibits financial institutions from charging consumers fees for paying overdrafts on automated teller machine and debit card transactions, unless a consumer consents, or opts in, to the overdraft service for those types of transactions. The future trend of overdraft charges is uncertain as a result of these new consumer regulatory provisions.

Debit card interchange income increased by $27, or 20.3%, during the third fiscal quarter of 2011 mainly due to an increase in debit card usage. On July 21, 2010, the Dodd-Frank Act amended the Electronic Fund Transfer Act to, among other things, give the Federal Reserve the authority to establish rules regarding interchange fees charged for electronic debit transactions by payment card issuers having assets over $10 billion and to enforce a new statutory requirement that such fees be reasonable and proportional to the actual cost of a transaction to the issuer. Because of the uncertainty as to any future rulemaking by the Federal Reserve, the Corporation cannot provide any assurance as to the ultimate impact of the Dodd-Frank Act on the amount of interchange income from debit card transactions reported in future periods.

Non-interest income totaled $1,590 during the first nine months of fiscal year 2011, compared to $1,689 for the same period last year. Service charges on deposits decreased by $221 mainly due to the new rule issued by the Federal Reserve Board that was previously discussed. Debit card interchange income increased by $90, or 23.9%, mainly due to an increase in debit card usage.

Net gains recognized on the sale of securities totaled $70 during the first nine months of fiscal year 2011 and $213 during the same year ago period. During fiscal year 2011, the Corporation sold callable agency securities that were projected to be called within a short period of time and recognized gains totaling $97. These gains were partially offset by a $27 loss from the sale of a collateralized mortgage obligation that was underperforming. An other-than-temporary impairment loss of $200 was recorded during the 2011 fiscal year-to-date period and a $280 loss was recorded during the same year ago period related to a trust preferred security the Corporation owns. A discussion of this impairment loss is included on the following pages under the heading “Financial Condition”.

Non-Interest Expenses
Total non-interest expenses increased to $2,419, or 5.5%, during the third quarter of fiscal year 2011, compared with $2,292 during the same year ago period.

Salaries and employee benefits increased by $93, or 8.2%, during the third quarter of fiscal year 2011 mainly due to staff added in fiscal year 2010 in the lending and credit administration functions and staff hired for the branch location in Hartville, Ohio that is scheduled to open during the fourth fiscal quarter of 2011. Also, normal merit increases were reinstated and went into effect on July 1, 2010, following the removal of a salary freeze that was in place during the preceding eighteen months.

Debit card processing expenses increased by $11, or 15.1%, during the third quarter of fiscal year 2011 mainly as a result of increased debit card usage by our customers.

Other expenses increased by $11, or 2.9%, during the third quarter of fiscal year 2011 mainly due to higher marketing expenses as a result of increased marketing efforts and additional costs associated with the conversion to a new internet banking provider. These increases were partially offset by lower repossession, collection and other real estate property expenses from properties that had been acquired through loan foreclosure.

Total non-interest expenses increased to $7,161, or 5.6%, during the first nine months of fiscal year 2011, compared with $6,784 during the same year ago period.

Salaries and employee benefits increased by $251, or 7.5%, during the first nine months of fiscal year 2011 mainly due to staff added in fiscal year 2010 in the lending and credit administration functions and due to normal merit increases that went into effect on July 1, 2010, following the removal of a salary freeze that was in place during the preceding eighteen months.

Occupancy and equipment expenses decreased by $26, or 3.2%, during the first nine months of fiscal year 2011 mainly due to the renegotiation of miscellaneous equipment and service contracts and lower depreciation expense.

Debit card processing expenses increased by $37, or 17.2%, during the first nine months of fiscal year 2011. This increase was mainly the result of increased debit card usage by our customers.
  
Other expenses increased by $99, or 9.3%, during the first nine month period of fiscal year 2011 mainly due to higher marketing expenses as a result of increased marketing efforts, one-time security expenses following robberies at two of the Corporation’s branch locations, and additional costs from a new vendor providing enhanced webhosting services and from the conversion to a new internet banking provider.

Income Taxes
Income tax expense for the three month period ended March 31, 2011 increased by $12, to $109 from $97, compared to a year ago. The effective tax rate was 18.4% for the current quarter as compared to 18.6% for the same period last year.

Income tax expense for the nine month period ended March 31, 2011 increased by $65, to $473 from $408, compared to a year ago. The effective tax rate was 21.9% for the current period as compared to 21.5% for the same period last year.

The effective tax rate differed from the federal statutory rate principally as a result of tax-exempt income from obligations of states and political subdivisions, loans and earnings on bank owned life insurance.

Financial Condition
Total assets at March 31, 2011 were $289,837 compared to $263,393 at June 30, 2010, an increase of $26,444, or an annualized 13.4%.

Available-for-sale securities increased by $17,850 from $64,262 at June 30, 2010 to $82,112 at March 31, 2011 due to the deployment of excess liquidity attributed to an increase in deposit balances. Within the securities portfolio, the Corporation owns a trust preferred security, which represents CDOs issued by other financial and insurance companies. As of March 31, 2011, the trust preferred security had an adjusted amortized cost of $372 and a fair value of $64. Due to the illiquidity in the market, it is unlikely the Corporation would be able to recover its investment in this security if the Corporation sold the security at this time. Due to an increase in principal and/or interest deferrals by the issuers of the underlying securities, the cash interest payments for the trust preferred security are being deferred. On March 31, 2011, the lowest credit rating on this security was Fitch’s rating of C, which is defined as highly speculative. The issuers in this security are primarily banks, bank holding companies and a limited number of insurance companies. The investment security is evaluated using a model to compare the present value of expected cash flows to prior periods expected cash flows to determine if there has been an adverse change in cash flows during the period. The discount rate used to calculate the cash flows is the coupon rate of the security, based on the forward LIBOR curve. The OTTI model considers the structure and term of the CDO and the financial condition of the underlying issuers. Specifically, the model details interest rates, principal balances of note classes and underlying issuers, the timing and amount of interest and principal payments of the underlying issuers, and the allocation of the payments to the note classes. The current estimate of expected cash flows is based on the most recent trustee reports and any other relevant market information including announcements of interest payment deferrals or defaults of underlying trust preferred securities. Assumptions used in the model include expected future default rates and prepayments. We assume no recoveries on defaults and all interest payment deferrals are treated as defaults with an assumed recovery rate of 15% on deferrals. In addition we use the model to “stress” the CDO, or make assumptions more severe than expected activity, to determine the degree to which assumptions could deteriorate before the CDO could no longer fully support repayment of the Corporation’s note class. According to the March 31, 2011 analysis, the expected cash flows were below the recorded amortized cost of the trust preferred security. Therefore, management determined it was appropriate to record an other-than-temporary impairment loss of $150 during the three month period ended March 31, 2011, bringing the total impairment loss to $200 for the nine month period ended March 31, 2011. Management has reviewed this security and these conclusions with an independent third party. If there is further deterioration in the underlying collateral of this security, other-than-temporary impairments may also occur in future periods.

Loan receivables increased by $2,615 to $176,898 at March 31, 2011 compared to $174,283 at June 30, 2010. Loan demand, particularly in the commercial area, has declined due to the current economic conditions. In addition, advances on established commercial lines of credit have decreased from prior periods. The cash surrender value of life insurance increased by $567 from June 30, 2010, to $5,365 as of March 31, 2011. The increase was due to the purchase of $431 of life insurance following the conversion of a term life insurance policy that was originally purchased in conjunction with a salary continuation agreement that was entered into with an executive officer in August of 2008. Total shareholders’ equity increased by $488 from June 30, 2010, to $24,204 as of March 31, 2011.  The increase was mainly due to net income for the current nine month period offset by a decrease in the fair value of available-for-sale securities and by cash dividends paid during the period.

As of March 31, 2011, impaired loans totaled $2,883, of which $2,081 are included in non-accrual loans. Commercial and commercial real estate loans are classified as impaired if management determines that full collection of principal and interest, in accordance with the terms of the loan documents, is not probable. Impaired loans and non-performing loans have been considered in management’s analysis of the appropriateness of the allowance for loan losses. Management and the Board of Directors are closely monitoring these loans and believe that the prospects for recovery of principal and interest, less identified specific reserves, are favorable.

Contractual Obligations, Commitments, Contingent Liabilities and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

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

Net cash inflow from operating activities for the nine month period ended March 31, 2011 was $3,037, net cash outflows from investing activities was $27,522 and net cash inflows from financing activities was $25,471. A major source of cash was $16,945 from sales, maturities, calls or principal pay downs on available-for-sale securities and a $25,565 increase in deposits. A major use of cash included the $36,572 purchase of securities. Total cash and cash equivalents was $14,792 as of March 31, 2011 compared to $13,806 at June 30, 2010 and $10,463 at March 31, 2010.

The Bank offers several types of deposit products to its customers. The rates offered by the Bank and the fees charged for them are competitive with others currently available in the market area. Total deposits increased by $25,565, or 15.7% on an annualized basis, during the first nine months of fiscal year 2011. Also, during the same period, the overall cost for funds decreased by 44 basis points from the same year ago period.

To provide an additional source of liquidity, the Corporation has entered into an agreement with the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) of Cincinnati. At March 31, 2011, FHLB advances totaled $7,578 as compared with $8,297 at June 30, 2010. As of March 31, 2011, the Bank had the ability to borrow an additional $18,975 from the FHLB based on a blanket pledge of qualifying first mortgage loans. In October 2010, the Corporation exchanged $1,000 of outstanding FHLB advances with maturities of less than one year and an average rate of 3.17% with advances that have an average maturity of six years and an average effective rate of 2.00%. The exchange resulted in the payment of a prepayment penalty of $16 that is being amortized as an adjustment to interest expense over the term of the new advances. The Corporation considers the FHLB to be a reliable source of liquidity funding, secondary to its deposit base.

Short-term borrowings consisted of repurchase agreements which is a financing arrangement that matures daily. The Bank pledges securities as collateral for the repurchase agreements. Short-term borrowings increased to $14,217 at March 31, 2011 from $13,086 at June 30, 2010.

Jumbo time deposits (those with balances of $100 thousand and over) increased from $33,764 at June 30, 2010 to $35,434 at March 31, 2011. These deposits are monitored closely by the Corporation and are mainly priced on an individual basis. When these deposits are from a municipality, certain bank-owned securities are pledged to guarantee the safety of these public fund deposits as required by Ohio law. The Corporation has the option to use a fee-paid broker to obtain deposits from outside its normal service area as an additional source of funding. The Corporation however, does not rely upon these deposits as a primary source of funding. Although management monitors interest rates on an ongoing basis, a quarterly rate sensitivity report is used to determine the effect of interest rate changes on the financial statements. In the opinion of management, enough assets or liabilities could be repriced over the near term (up to three years) to compensate for such changes. The spread on interest rates, or the difference between the average earning assets and the average interest-bearing liabilities, is monitored quarterly.

Capital Resources
The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal regulatory agencies. Capital adequacy guidelines and prompt corrective-action regulations involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices.  Failure to meet various capital requirements can initiate regulatory action that could have a direct material effect on the Corporation’s financial statements.

The Bank’s leverage and risk-based capital ratios as of March 31, 2011 were 7.6% and 13.9%, respectively. This compares to leverage and risk-based capital ratios of 7.8% and 13.4%, respectively, as of June 30, 2010. The Bank exceeded minimum regulatory capital requirements to be considered well-capitalized for both periods. Management is not aware of any matters occurring subsequent to March 31, 2011 that would cause the Bank’s capital category to change.

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

The Corporation has identified the appropriateness of the allowance for loan losses and the valuation of securities as critical accounting policies and an understanding of these policies are necessary to understand the financial statements. Critical accounting policies are those policies that require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Footnote one (Securities and Allowance for Loan Losses), footnote two (Securities), footnote three (Loans) and Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results from Operation (Critical Accounting Policies) of the 2010 Form 10-K provide detail with regard to the Corporation’s accounting for the allowance for loan losses and valuation of securities and other-than-temporary impairment. There have been no significant changes in the application of accounting policies since June 30, 2010.

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

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