GLEN BURNIE BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2009, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X and, therefore, do not include all information and notes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  However, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the unaudited consolidated financial statements have been included in the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009.

Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2010 is not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2010.

NOTE 2 - EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share of common stock are computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per share are calculated by including the average dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding during the periods.  Dilutive common equivalent shares consist of stock options, calculated using the treasury stock method.

   
Three Months Ended

Basic and diluted:
           
Net  income
  $ 399,000     $ 455,000  
Weighted average common shares outstanding
    2,683,244       2,918,679  
Basic and dilutive net income per share
  $ 0.15     $ 0.16  

Diluted earnings per share calculations were not required for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, since there were no options outstanding.

NOTE 3 – REPURCHASE AND RETIREMENT OF COMMON STOCK

In February 2008, the Company instituted a Stock Repurchase Program.  Under the program, as extended and increased, the Company was authorized to spend up to $4,127,309 to repurchase shares of its outstanding common stock.  The repurchases may be made from time to time at a price not to exceed $12.50 per share.

During the three month period ended March 31, 2009, the Company repurchased 297,679 shares at an average price of $9.30 for a total of $2,769,067.  During the three month period ended March 31, 2010, the Company did not repurchase any shares.

NOTE 4 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-06- Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures amending Topic 820. The ASU provides for additional disclosures of transfers between assets and liabilities valued under Level 1 and 2 inputs as well as additional disclosures regarding those assets and liabilities valued under Level 3 inputs. The new disclosures are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009 except for those provisions addressing Level 3 fair value measurements which provisions are effective for fiscal years, and periods therein, beginning after December 15, 2010. The adoption of this Statement did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 
- 7 -

 
 
In March 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-09 amending FASB ASC Topic 855 to exclude SEC reporting entities from the requirement to disclose the date on which subsequent events have been evaluated. It further modifies the requirement to disclose the date on which subsequent events have been evaluated in reissued financial statements to apply only to such statements that have been restated to correct an error or to apply U.S. GAAP retrospectively. The Company has complied with ASU No. 2010-09.
 
NOTE 5 – FAIR VALUE

ASC 820-10, formerly SFAS No. 157, defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure of fair value measurements.

Fair Value Hierarchy
 
ASC 820-10 specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. In accordance with ASC 820-10, these inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
 
o                  Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities
 
o                  Level 2 – Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices in active markets for similar securities)
 
o                  Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs (including the Company’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)
  
In determining the appropriate levels, the Company performs a detailed analysis of the assets and liabilities that are subject to ASC 820-10.
 
The following table presents fair value measurements as of March 31, 2010:
 
   
Level 1

The estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 are summarized below. The fair values of a significant portion of these financial instruments are estimates derived using present value techniques and may not be indicative of the net realizable or liquidation values. Also, the calculation of estimated fair values is based on market conditions at a specific point in time and may not reflect current or future fair values.

Fair values are based on quoted market prices for similar instruments or estimated using discounted cash flows. The discounts used are estimated using comparable market rates for similar types of instruments adjusted to be commensurate with the credit risk, overhead costs and optionality of such instruments.

The fair value of cash and due from banks, federal funds sold, investments in restricted stocks and accrued interest receivable are equal to the carrying amounts. The fair values of investment securities are determined using market quotations. The fair value of loans receivable is estimated using discounted cash flow analysis.

The fair value of non-interest bearing deposits, interest-bearing checking, savings, and money market deposit accounts, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, and accrued interest payable are equal to the carrying amounts. The fair value of fixed-maturity time deposits is estimated using discounted cash flow analysis.

The gross unrealized losses and fair value, aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position, at March 31, 2010 are as follows:

At March 31, 2010, the Company owned one pooled trust preferred security issued by Regional Diversified Funding, Senior Notes with a Fitch rating of C.  The market for these securities at March 31, 2010 was not active and markets for similar securities were also not active.  As a result, the Company had cash flow testing performed as of March 31, 2010 by an unrelated third party in order to measure the possible extent of other-than-temporary-impairment (“OTTI”).  This testing assumed a 15% recovery with a two year lag on two of the previously defaulting financial institutions, with future defaults on the currently performing financial institutions of 150 basis points applied annually with no future recovery.  This testing resulted in a net present value of $1,150,642, compared to the book value of $1,127,965.

Declines in the fair value of held to maturity and available for sale securities below their cost that are deemed to be other than temporary are reflected in earnings as realized losses.  In estimating other-than-temporary-impairment losses, management considers, among other things, (i) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (ii) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and (iii) the intent and ability of the Company to retain it’s investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.

As of March 31, 2010, management had the ability and intent to hold the securities classified as available for sale for a period of time sufficient for a recovery of cost.  On March 31, 2010 the Bank held 14 investment securities having continuous unrealized loss positions for more than 12 months.  Management has determined that all unrealized losses are either due to increases in market interest rates over the yields available at the time the underlying securities were purchased, current call features that are nearing, and the effect the sub-prime market has had on all mortgage-backed securities.  The Bank has no mortgage-backed securities collateralized by sub-prime mortgages.  The fair value is expected to recover as the bonds approach their maturity date or repricing date or if market yields for such investments decline.  Management does not believe any of the securities are impaired due to reasons of credit quality.  Accordingly, as of March 31, 2010, management believes the impairments detailed in the table above are temporary and no impairment loss has been realized in the Company’s consolidated income statement.

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

Forward-Looking Statements

When used in this discussion and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, the words or phrases “will likely result,” “are expected to,” “will continue,” “is anticipated,” “estimate,” “project” or similar expressions are intended to identify “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company cautions readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made, and readers are advised that various factors could affect the Company’s financial performance and could cause the Company’s actual results for future periods to differ materially from those anticipated or projected.  While it is impossible to identify all such factors, such factors include, but are not limited to, those risks identified in the Company’s periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The Company does not undertake and specifically disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances after the date of such statements.

Overview

Glen Burnie Bancorp, a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), and its subsidiaries, The Bank of Glen Burnie (the “Bank”) and GBB Properties, Inc., both Maryland corporations, and Glen Burnie Statutory Trust I, a Connecticut business trust, had consolidated net income of $399,000 ($0.15 basic and diluted earnings per share) for the first quarter of 2010, compared to the first quarter 2009 consolidated net income of $455,000 ($0.16 basic and diluted income per share), a 12.31% decrease.    The decrease in earnings is primarily due to three areas of increased expense.  First, the Bank increased its provision for credit losses for the current year.  Second, the Company has started accruing for the $250,000 early repayment premium expense related to the planned September 7, 2010 repayment of the $5,155,000 in outstanding Trust Preferred Securities. Finally, salaries and employee benefits increased in the 2010 period as compared to the 2009 period.  The decrease in earnings for the 2010 period as compared to the 2009 period caused by these increased expenses was partially offset by a decline in the Bank’s interest expense on deposits. Furthermore, the Bank recorded an impairment expense on securities in 2009 which was not repeated in the 2010 period.

The current economic environment continues to have a negative impact on the Bank in several areas.  Overall, deposits have continued to increase as investors have continued to seek safe havens for their investments.  In addition, both interest rates paid on deposits and rates of interest earned by the Bank on loans and other earning assets have declined, with the rates paid on deposits declining at a faster rate resulting in an improvement in the net interest margin.

Results Of Operations

Net Interest Income.  The Company’s consolidated net interest income prior to provision for credit losses for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was $3,094,000 compared to $2,865,000 for the same period in 2009, an increase of $229,000 (7.99%) for the three months.

Interest income for the first quarter increased from $4,533,000 in 2009 to $4,572,000 in 2010, a 0.86% increase.  The interest income increase for the three month period was due to an increase in interest income on U.S. Government agency securities, partially offset by a decrease in interest income on municipal securities and loan income.

Interest expense for the quarter decreased from $1,668,000 in 2009 to $1,478,000 in 2010, an 11.39% decrease.  The decrease in interest expense for the three month period ended March 31, 2010 was due to a decrease in interest paid on deposit balances, and was partially offset by an increase in the expense for the junior subordinated debentures reflecting the accrual of the 5% premium which will be due upon early repayment in September 2010 of $5,155,000 in outstanding Trust Preferred Securities.

Net interest margins for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was 4.06%, compared to tax equivalent net interest margins of 4.04% for the three months ended March 31, 2009.   This increase is due to the widening of the gap between the interest rates offered by the Bank on increasing customer deposits and the rates the Bank is able to obtain on loans and other interest earning assets and the additional interest expense being accrued as the Company prepares to repay the Trust Preferred Securities together with an early repayment premium on September 7, 2010.

Provision for Credit Losses.  The Company made a provision for credit losses of $300,000 during the three month period ended March 31, 2010 and $150,000 for credit losses during the three month period ended March 31, 2009.  As of March 31, 2010, the allowance for credit losses equaled 78.21% of non-accrual and past due loans compared to 117.61% at December 31, 2009 and 180.05% at March 31, 2009.  During the three month period ended March 31, 2010, the Company recorded net charge-offs of $378,000, compared to net charge-offs of $195,000 during the corresponding period of the prior year.  On an annualized basis, net charge-offs for the 2010 period represent 0.64% of the average loan portfolio.

Other Income.  Other income increased from $414,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2009, to $418,000 for the corresponding 2010 period, a $4,000 (0.97%) increase.

Other Expenses.  Other expenses increased from $2,619,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2009, to $2,761,000 for the corresponding 2010 period, a $142,000 (5.42%) increase.  The increase for the three month period was primarily due to an increase in salaries and other employee benefits.  This increase was partially offset by the absence of the write-down of securities taken in the first quarter of 2009 which was not repeated in the first quarter of 2010.

Income Taxes.  During the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company recorded income tax expense of $52,000, compared to income tax expense of $55,000 for the same period in 2009.  The Company’s effective tax rate for the three month period in 2010 was 11.52%, respectively, compared to 10.78% for the prior year period.  The increase in the effective tax rate for the three month period was due to a decline in the proportion of tax exempt income.

Comprehensive Income (Loss). In accordance with regulatory requirements, the Company reports comprehensive income (loss) in its financial statements.   Comprehensive income (loss) consists of the Company’s net income, adjusted for unrealized gains and losses on the Bank’s investment portfolio of investment securities.  For the first quarter of 2010, comprehensive income, net of tax, totaled $753,000, compared to the March 31, 2009 comprehensive loss of $10,000.  The increase for the three month period was due primarily to the decreases in net unrealized losses on securities over the three months ended March 31, 2010.

Financial Condition

General.  The Company’s assets increased to $362,750,000 at March 31, 2010 from $353,397,000 at December 31, 2009, primarily due to an increase in cash and cash equivalents and securities, offset partially by a decrease in loans.  The Bank’s net loans totaled $234,338,000 at March 31, 2010, compared to $235,883,000 at December 31, 2009, a decrease of $1,545,000 (0.65%), primarily attributable to decreases in indirect loans (primarily auto loans), partially offset by an increase in commercial mortgage loans and secured home equity loans.

The Company’s total investment securities portfolio (investment securities available for sale) totaled $85,716,000 at March 31, 2010, a $1,253,000 (1.48%) increase from $84,463,000 at December 31, 2009.  This increase was funded by the increase in deposits received during the three month period.  The Bank’s cash and due from banks (cash due from banks, interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions, and federal funds sold), as of March 31, 2010, totaled $21,293,000, an increase of $9,859,000 (86.23%) from the December 31, 2009 total of $11,434,000.  This increase comes from the growth in deposits.

Deposits as of March 31, 2010 totaled $303,397,000, which is an increase of $9,039,000 (3.07%) from $294,358,000 at December 31, 2009.  Demand deposits as of March 31, 2010 totaled $71,600,000, which is an increase of $3,792,000 (5.59%) from $67,808,000 at December 31, 2009.  NOW accounts as of March 31, 2010 totaled $25,999,000, which is an increase of $3,646,000 (16.32%) from $22,353,000 at December 31, 2009.  Money market accounts as of March 31, 2010 totaled $17,648,000, which is an increase of $2,364,000 (15.47%), from $15,284,000 at December 31, 2009.  Savings deposits as of March 31, 2010 totaled $51,309,000, which is an increase of $2,931,000 (6.06%) from $48,378,000 at December 31, 2009.  Certificates of deposit over $100,000 totaled $29,978,000 on March 31, 2010, which is a decrease of $1,599,000 (5.07%) from $31,577,000 at December 31, 2009.  Other time deposits (made up of certificates of deposit less than $100,000 and individual retirement accounts) totaled $106,863,000 on March 31, 2010, which is a $2,095,000 (1.93%) decrease from the $108,958,000 total at December 31, 2009. Management continues to believe that the growth in deposits was due in part to the ongoing instability in the stock market and the resulting reallocation of investment portfolios by the Bank’s customers.

At March 31, 2010, there was $6,470,000 in loans outstanding, other than those reflected in the above table, as to which known information about possible credit problems of borrowers caused management to have serious doubts as to the ability of such borrowers to comply with present loan repayment terms.  Such loans consist of loans which were not 90 days or more past due but where the borrower is in bankruptcy or has a history of delinquency, or the loan to value ratio is considered excessive due to deterioration of the collateral or other factors.  Reflected in the above table are $0 of prior period troubled debt restructurings that are now not performing under the terms of their modified agreements.

Allowance For Credit Losses.  The allowance for credit losses is established through a provision for credit losses charged to expense.  Loans are charged against the allowance for credit losses when management believes that the collectability of the principal is unlikely.  The allowance, based on evaluations of the collectability of loans and prior loan loss experience, is an amount that management believes will be adequate to absorb possible losses on existing loans that may become uncollectible.  The evaluations are performed for each class of loans and take into consideration such factors as changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality, review of specific problem loans, value of collateral securing the loans and current economic conditions and trends that may affect the borrowers’ ability to pay.  For example, delinquencies in unsecured loans and indirect automobile installment loans will be reserved for at significantly higher ratios than loans secured by real estate.  Based on that analysis, the Bank deems its allowance for credit losses in proportion to the total non-accrual loans and past due loans to be sufficient.

MARKET RISK AND INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY

Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in the fair value of financial instruments due to changes in interest rates, exchange rates or equity pricing.  The Company’s principal market risk is interest rate risk that arises from its lending, investing and deposit taking activities.  The Company’s profitability is dependent on the Bank’s net interest income.  Interest rate risk can significantly affect net interest income to the degree that interest bearing liabilities mature or reprice at different intervals than interest earning assets.  The Bank’s Asset/Liability and Risk Management Committee oversees the management of interest rate risk.  The primary purpose of the committee is to manage the exposure of net interest margins to unexpected changes due to interest rate fluctuations.  The Company does not utilize derivative financial or commodity instruments or hedging strategies in its management of interest rate risk.  The primary tool used by the committee to monitor interest rate risk is a “gap” report which measures the dollar difference between the amount of interest bearing assets and interest bearing liabilities subject to repricing within a given time period.  These efforts affect the loan pricing and deposit rate policies of the Company as well as the asset mix, volume guidelines, and liquidity and capital planning.

The following table sets forth the Company’s interest-rate sensitivity at March 31, 2010.

The foregoing analysis assumes that the Company’s assets and liabilities move with rates at their earliest repricing opportunities based on final maturity.  Mortgage backed securities are assumed to mature during the period in which they are estimated to prepay and it is assumed that loans and other securities are not called prior to maturity.  Certificates of deposit and IRA accounts are presumed to reprice at maturity.  NOW savings accounts are assumed to reprice at within three months although it is the Company’s experience that such accounts may be less sensitive to changes in market rates.

In addition to GAP analysis, the Bank utilizes a simulation model to quantify the effect a hypothetical immediate plus or minus 200 basis point change in rates would have on net interest income and the economic value of equity.  The model takes into consideration the effect of call features of investments as well as prepayments of loans in periods of declining rates.  When actual changes in interest rates occur, the changes in interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities may differ from the assumptions used in the model.  As of March 31, 2010, the model produced the following sensitivity profile for net interest income and the economic value of equity.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company currently has no business other than that of the Bank and does not currently have any material funding commitments.  The Company’s principal sources of liquidity are cash on hand and dividends received from the Bank.  The Bank is subject to various regulatory restrictions on the payment of dividends.

The Bank’s principal sources of funds for investments and operations are net income, deposits from its primary market area, principal and interest payments on loans, interest received on investment securities and proceeds from maturing investment securities.  Its principal funding commitments are for the origination or purchase of loans and the payment of maturing deposits.  Deposits are considered a primary source of funds supporting the Bank’s lending and investment activities.

The Bank’s most liquid assets are cash and cash equivalents, which are cash on hand, amounts due from financial institutions, federal funds sold, certificates of deposit with other financial institutions that have an original maturity of three months or less and money market mutual funds.  The levels of such assets are dependent on the Bank’s operating, financing and investment activities at any given time.  The variations in levels of cash and cash equivalents are influenced by deposit flows and anticipated future deposit flows. The Bank’s cash and cash equivalents (cash due from banks, interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions, and federal funds sold), as of March 31, 2010, totaled $21,293,000, an increase of $9,859,000 (86.23%) from the December 31, 2009 total of $11,434,000.

As of March 31, 2010, the Bank was permitted to draw on a $70,690,000 line of credit from the FHLB of Atlanta. Borrowings under the line are secured by a floating lien on the Bank’s residential mortgage loans. As of March 31, 2010, there were $27.0 million in long-term convertible advances outstanding with various monthly and quarterly call features and with final maturities ranging from November 2017 through August 2018.  In addition, the Bank has one unsecured federal funds line of credit in the amount of $9.0 million from a commercial bank, of which nothing was outstanding as of March 31, 2010. Furthermore, as of March 31, 2010, the Company had outstanding $5,155,000 of its 10.6% Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures issued to Glen Burnie Statutory Trust I, a Connecticut statutory trust subsidiary of the Company.

The Company’s stockholders’ equity increased $526,000 (2.09%) during the three months ended March 31, 2010, due mainly to a decrease in other comprehensive loss, net of tax benefits, with a lesser increase in retained earnings.  The Company’s accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax benefits decreased by $354,000 (34.17%) from ($1,036,000) at December 31, 2009 to ($682,000) at March 31, 2010, as a result of an increase in the market value of securities classified as available for sale.  Retained earnings increased by $131,000 (0.92%) as the result of the Company’s net income for the three months, partially offset by dividends.  Common stock and surplus increased due to dividend reinvestment during the three months of 2010.  In addition, $41,106 was transferred within stockholders’ equity in consideration for shares to be issued under the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan in lieu of cash dividends.

The Federal Reserve Board and the FDIC have established guidelines with respect to the maintenance of appropriate levels of capital by bank holding companies and state non-member banks, respectively.  The regulations impose two sets of capital adequacy requirements: minimum leverage rules, which require bank holding companies and banks to maintain a specified minimum ratio of capital to total assets, and risk-based capital rules, which require the maintenance of specified minimum ratios of capital to “risk-weighted” assets.  At March 31, 2010, the Bank was in full compliance with these guidelines with a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 8.73%, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 13.17% and a total risk-based capital ratio of 14.42%.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The Company’s accounting policies are more fully described in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 and are essential to understanding Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.  As discussed there, the preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes.  Since future events and their effects cannot be determined with absolute certainty, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment.  Management has used the best information available to make the estimations necessary to value the related assets and liabilities based on historical experience and on various assumptions which are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.  Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the financial statements.  The Company reevaluates these variables as facts and circumstances change.  Historically, actual results have not differed significantly from the Company’s estimates.  The following is a summary of the more judgmental accounting estimates and principles involved in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements, including the identification of the variables most important in the estimation process:

Allowance for Credit Losses.  The Bank’s allowance for credit losses is determined based upon estimates that can and do change when the actual events occur, including historical losses as an indicator of future losses, fair market value of collateral, and various general or industry or geographic specific economic events.  The use of these estimates and values is inherently subjective and the actual losses could be greater or less than the estimates.  For further information regarding the Bank’s allowance for credit losses, see “Allowance for Credit Losses”, above.

Accrued Taxes.  Management estimates income tax expense based on the amount it expects to owe various tax authorities.  Accrued taxes represent the net estimated amount due or to be received from taxing authorities.  In estimating accrued taxes, management assesses the relative merits and risks of the appropriate tax treatment of transactions taking into account statutory, judicial and regulatory guidance in the context of the Company’s tax position.

ITEM 3.      QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

For information regarding the market risk of the Company’s financial instruments, see “Market Risk and Interest Rate Sensitivity” in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”.

ITEM 4.      CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company maintains a system of disclosure controls and procedures that is designed to provide reasonable assurance that information, which is required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and is accumulated and communicated to management in a timely manner.  The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated this system of disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, and have concluded that the system is effective.  There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
