Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollar amounts in thousands)

1.	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The consolidated financial statements presented in this report include the accounts of HomeTrust Bancshares, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“HomeTrust”), and its wholly-owned subsidiary, HomeTrust Bank, National Association (the “Bank”). As used throughout this report, the term the “Company” refers to HomeTrust and the Bank, its consolidated subsidiary, unless the context otherwise requires.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented have been included. It is recommended that these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2014 (“2014 Form 10-K”) filed with the SEC on September 15, 2014. The results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year ending June 30, 2015. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current fiscal year presentation. The reclassifications had no impact on previously reported net income or equity.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements. Various elements of the Company’s accounting policies, by their nature, are inherently subject to estimation techniques, valuation assumptions and other subjective assessments. In particular, management has identified several accounting policies that, due to the judgments, estimates and assumptions inherent in those policies, are critical to an understanding of the Company’s financial statements. These policies relate to (i) the determination of the provision and the allowance for loan losses, (ii) business combinations, (iii) the valuation of REO, (iv) the calculation of post retirement plan expenses and benefits, and (v) the valuation of or recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities. These policies and judgments, estimates and assumptions are described in greater detail in subsequent notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Critical Accounting Policies) in our 2014 Form 10-K. Management believes that the judgments, estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of the financial statements are appropriate based on the factual circumstances at the time. However, given the sensitivity of the financial statements to these critical accounting policies, the use of other judgments, estimates and assumptions could result in material differences in the Company’s results of operations or financial condition. Further, subsequent changes in economic or market conditions could have a material impact on these estimates and the Company’s financial condition and operating results in future periods.

2.	Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2013-11 “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists”. This ASU provides guidance on financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. This ASU applies to all entities with unrecognized tax benefits that also have tax loss or tax credit carryforwards in the same tax jurisdiction as of the reporting date. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013 with early adoption permitted. Since the Company does not have any unrecognized tax benefits, the adoption of the ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-04, "Receivables—Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40): Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure”. The objective of this guidance is to clarify when an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs, that is, when a creditor should be considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan such that the loan receivable should be derecognized and the real estate property recognized. ASU No. 2014-04 states that an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs, and a creditor is considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan, upon either (1) the creditor obtaining legal title to the residential real estate property upon completion of a foreclosure or (2) the borrower conveying all interest in the residential real estate property to the creditor to satisfy that loan through completion of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or through a similar legal agreement. Additionally, ASU No. 2014-04 requires interim and annual disclosure of both (1) the amount of foreclosed residential real estate property held by the creditor and (2) the recorded investment in consumer mortgage loans collateralized by residential real estate property that are in the process of foreclosure according to local requirements of the applicable jurisdiction. ASU No. 2014-04 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014. The adoption of ASU No. 2014-04 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-14, “Receivables-Troubled Debt Restructuring by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40): Classification of Certain Government-Guaranteed Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure”. The amendments in this ASU require that a mortgage loan be derecognized and that a separate other receivable be recognized upon foreclosure if the following conditions are met: (1) the loan has a government guarantee that is not separable from the loan before foreclosure; (2) at the time of foreclosure, the creditor has the intent to convey the real estate property to the guarantor and make a claim of the guarantee, and the creditor has the ability to recover under that claim; and (3) at the time of foreclosure, any amount of the claim that is determined on the basis of the fair value of the real estate is fixed. Upon foreclosure, the separate other receivable should be measured based on the amount of the loan balance (principal and interest) expected to be recovered from the guarantor. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. The adoption of ASU No. 2014-14 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

3.	Business Combinations

On July 31, 2014, the Bank completed its acquisition of Bank of Commerce in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Share Exchange dated March 3, 2014. Under the terms of the agreement, Bank of Commerce shareholders received $6.25 per share in cash consideration, representing approximately $10.1 million of aggregate deal consideration. In addition, all $3.2 million of Bank of Commerce’s preferred stock was redeemed.

Bank of Commerce was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and, accordingly, assets acquired, liabilities assumed and consideration exchanged were recorded at acquisition date fair values. Fair values are preliminary and subject to refinement for up to one year after the closing date of the acquisition as additional information regarding the closing date fair values becomes available. The excess of the merger consideration over the fair value of Bank of Commerce’s net assets was allocated to goodwill. The book value as of July 31, 2014, of assets acquired was $122.5 million and liabilities assumed was $114.7 million. The Company recorded $4.0 million in goodwill related to the acquisition.

The following table presents the consideration paid by the Bank in the acquisition of Bank of Commerce and the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of July 31, 2014:

On May 31, 2014, the Company completed its acquisition of Jefferson Bancshares, Inc. (“Jefferson”) in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated January 22, 2014. Under the terms of the agreement, Jefferson shareholders received 0.2661 shares of HomeTrust common stock, and $4.00 in cash for each share of Jefferson common stock. This represents approximately $50.5 million of aggregate deal consideration.

Jefferson was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and, accordingly, assets acquired, liabilities assumed and consideration exchanged were recorded at acquisition date fair values. Fair values are preliminary and subject to refinement for up to one year after the closing date of the acquisition as additional information regarding the closing date fair values becomes available. The excess of the merger consideration over the fair value of Jefferson’s net assets was allocated to goodwill. The book value as of May 31, 2014, of assets acquired was $494.3 million and liabilities assumed was $441.9 million. The Company recorded $7.0 million in goodwill related to the acquisition.

BankGreenville was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and, accordingly, assets acquired, liabilities assumed and consideration exchanged were recorded at acquisition date fair values. The excess of the merger consideration over the fair value of BankGreenville’s net assets was allocated to goodwill. The book value as of July 31, 2013, of assets acquired was $102.2 million and liabilities assumed was $94.1 million. The Company recorded $2.8 million in goodwill related to the acquisition.

The following table discloses the impact of the acquisition of Bank of Commerce since the effective date of July 31, 2014 through September 30, 2014. In addition, the table presents certain pro forma information as if Bank of Commerce, Jefferson, and BankGreenville had been acquired on July 1, 2014 and July 1, 2013. Although, this pro forma information combines the historical results from each company, it is not indicative of what would have occurred had the acquisition taken place on July 1, 2014 and July 1, 2013. Adjustments were made for the estimated impact of certain fair value adjustments and other acquisition-related activity while significant one-time merger-related expenses are not included. Furthermore, expenses related to systems conversions and other costs of integration have been recorded throughout fiscal year 2014 and are expected to be recorded throughout fiscal year 2015. Additionally, the Company expects to achieve further operating cost savings as a result of the acquisitions which are not reflected in the pro forma amounts below:

The Company had no sales of securities during the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013.

Securities available for sale with costs totaling $42,355 and $51,036 with market values of $42,546 and $51,297 at September 30, 2014 and June 30, 2014, respectively, were pledged as collateral to secure various public deposits.

The gross unrealized losses and the fair value for securities available for sale aggregated by the length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position as of September 30, 2014 and June 30, 2014 were as follows:

The total number of securities with unrealized losses at September 30, 2014, and June 30, 2014 were 148 and 159, respectively. Unrealized losses on securities have not been recognized in income because management has the intent and ability to hold the securities for the foreseeable future, and has determined that it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the securities prior to a recovery in value. The decline in fair value was largely due to increases in market interest rates. The Company had no other than temporary impairment losses during the three months ended September 30, 2014 or the year ended June 30, 2014.

As a requirement for membership, the Bank invests in stock of the FHLB of Atlanta and the Federal Reserve Bank. No ready market exists for this stock and the carrying value approximates its fair value based on the redemption provisions of the FHLB of Atlanta and the Federal Reserve Bank.

Other TDRs include TDRs that have a below market interest rate and extended payment terms. The Company does not typically forgive principal when restructuring troubled debt.

In the determination of the allowance for loan losses, management considers TDRs for all loan classes, and the subsequent nonperformance in accordance with their modified terms, by measuring impairment on a loan-by-loan basis based on either the value of the loan’s expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s original effective interest rate or on the collateral value, net of the estimated costs of disposal, if the loan is collateral dependent.

6.	Net income per Share

Per the provisions of FASB ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, nonvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents are participating securities and are included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for each class of common stock and participating security according to dividends declared (or accumulated) and participation rights in undistributed earnings. ESOP shares are considered outstanding for basic and diluted earnings per share when the shares are committed to be released.

Net income is allocated between the common stock and participating securities pursuant to the two-class method, based on their rights to receive dividends, participate in earnings, or absorb losses. Basic earnings per common shares is computed by dividing net earnings available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, excluding participating nonvested restricted shares.

The following is a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of basic and diluted net income per share of common stock (in thousands, except share and per share data):

Net income per share - diluted	$	0.12	$	0.17

There were 1,495,500 and 1,557,000 outstanding stock options that were anti-dilutive for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

7.	Equity Incentive Plan

On January 17, 2013, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan, which provides for awards of restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock options, stock appreciation rights and cash awards to directors, emeritus directors, officers, employees and advisory directors. The cost of equity-based awards under the 2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan generally is based on the fair value of the awards on their grant date. The maximum number of shares that may be utilized for awards under the plan is 2,962,400, including 2,116,000 for stock options and stock appreciation rights and 846,400 for awards of restricted stock and restricted stock units.

Shares of common stock issued under the 2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan may be authorized but unissued shares or repurchased shares. During fiscal 2013, the Company had repurchased all 846,400 shares on the open market for issuance under the 2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan, for $13.3 million, at an average cost of $15.71 per share.

Share based compensation expense related to stock options and restricted stock recognized for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 was $753 and $668, respectively, before the tax related benefit of $279 and $247, respectively.

8.	Commitments and Contingencies

Loan Commitments – Legally binding 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 many commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. In the normal course of business, there are various outstanding commitments to extend credit that are not reflected in the consolidated financial statements. At September 30, 2014 and June 30, 2014, respectively, loan commitments (excluding $33,636 and $27,086 of undisbursed portions of construction loans) totaled $18,533 and $28,360 of which $2,532 and $3,620 were variable rate commitments and $16,001 and $24,740 were fixed rate commitments. The fixed rate loans had interest rates ranging from 1.99% to 8.00% at September 30, 2014 and 1.85% to 10.51% at June 30, 2014, and terms ranging from 1 to 30 years. Pre-approved but unused lines of credit (principally second mortgage home equity loans and overdraft protection loans) totaled $204,047 and $167,630 at September 30, 2014 and June 30, 2014, respectively. These amounts represent the Company’s exposure to credit risk, and in the opinion of management have no more than the normal lending risk that the Company commits to its borrowers. The Company has freestanding derivative instruments consisting of commitments to originate fixed rate conforming loans and commitments to sell fixed rate conforming loans. The fair value of these commitments was not material at September 30, 2014 or June 30, 2014.

The Company grants construction and permanent loans collateralized primarily by residential and commercial real estate to customers throughout its primary market area. In addition, the Company grants municipal leases to customers throughout North and South Carolina. The Company’s loan portfolio can be affected by the general economic conditions within these market areas. Management believes that the Company has no concentration of credit in the loan portfolio.

Restrictions on Cash – The Bank is required by regulation to maintain a varying cash reserve balance with the Federal Reserve System. The daily average calculated cash reserve required as of September 30, 2014 and June 30, 2014 was $11,631, and $8,087, respectively, which was satisfied by vault cash and balances held at the Federal Reserve.

Guarantees – Standby letters of credit obligate the Company to meet certain financial obligations of its customers, if, under the contractual terms of the agreement, the customers are unable to do so. The financial standby letters of credit issued by the Company are irrevocable and payment is only guaranteed upon the borrower’s failure to perform its obligations to the beneficiary. Total commitments under standby letters of credit as of September 30, 2014 and June 30, 2014 were $1,520 and $483. There was no liability recorded for these letters of credit at September 30, 2014 or June 30, 2014, respectively.

Litigation – The Company is involved in several litigation matters in the ordinary course of business. One matter, originally filed in March 2012, involves claims of $12.5 million in compensatory damages and a request for additional punitive treble damages resulting from the purported failure of the Company and a third party brokerage firm to discover a Ponzi scheme conducted by a customer holding accounts at each entity. The Company believes that the lawsuit is without merit and intends to defend itself vigorously. Management, after review with its legal counsel, is of the opinion that this litigation should not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations, although new developments could result in management modifying its assessment. There can be no assurance that the Company will successfully defend or resolve this litigation matter.

The Company is also subject to a variety of other legal matters that have arisen in the ordinary course of our business. In the current economic environment, litigation has increased significantly, primarily as a result of defaulted borrowers asserting claims to defeat or delay foreclosure proceedings. There can be no assurance that loan workouts and other activities will not expose the Company to additional legal actions, including lender liability or environmental claims. Therefore, the Company may be exposed to substantial liabilities, which could adversely affect its results of operations and financial condition. Moreover, the expenses of legal proceedings will adversely affect its results of operations until they are resolved.

9.	Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company utilizes fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and to determine fair value disclosures. Securities available for sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Additionally, from time to time, the Company may be required to record at fair value other assets on a nonrecurring basis, such as impaired loans. These nonrecurring fair value adjustments typically involve application of lower of cost or market accounting or write-downs of individual assets.

HOMETRUST BANCSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollar amounts in thousands)

Fair Value Hierarchy

The Company groups assets at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. These levels are:

Level 1:

Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.

Level 2:

Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market.

Level 3:

Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use at least one significant assumption not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset. Valuation techniques include use of option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques.

Following is a description of valuation methodologies used for assets recorded at fair value. The Company does not have any liabilities recorded at fair value.

Investment Securities Available for Sale

Securities available for sale are valued on a recurring basis at quoted market prices where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted prices of comparable securities. Level 1 securities include those traded on an active exchange, such as the New York Stock Exchange or U.S. Treasury securities that are traded by dealers or brokers in active over-the-counter markets and money market funds. Level 2 securities include mortgage-backed securities and debentures issued by government sponsored enterprises, municipal bonds, and corporate debt securities.

Loans

The Company does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis. From time to time, however, a loan is considered impaired and an allowance for loan losses is established. Loans for which it is probable that payment of interest and principal will not be made in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement are considered impaired. Once a loan is identified as individually impaired, the fair value is estimated using one of several methods, including collateral value, market value of similar debt, enterprise value, liquidation value and discounted cash flows. The Company reviews all impaired loans each quarter to determine if an allowance is necessary. Those impaired loans not requiring an allowance represent loans for which the fair value of the expected repayments or collateral exceed the recorded investments in such loans.

At September 30, 2014 and June 30, 2014, most of the total impaired loans were evaluated based on the fair value of the collateral. For these collateral dependent impaired loans, the Company obtains updated appraisals at least annually. These appraisals are reviewed for appropriateness and then discounted for estimated closing costs to determine if an allowance is necessary. As part of the quarterly review of impaired loans, the Company reviews these appraisals to determine if any additional discounts to the fair value are necessary. If a current appraisal is not obtained, the Company determines whether a discount is needed to the value from the original appraisal based on the decline in value of similar properties with recent appraisals. Impaired loans where a charge-off has occurred or an allowance is established during the period being reported require classification in the fair value hierarchy. The Company records all impaired loans with an allowance as nonrecurring Level 3.

Loans Held for Sale

Loans held for sale are adjusted to lower of cost or fair value. Fair value is based upon investor pricing. The Company considers all loans held for sale carried at fair value as nonrecurring Level 3.

Real Estate Owned

REO is considered held for sale and is adjusted to fair value less estimated selling costs upon transfer of the loan to foreclosed assets. Fair value is based upon independent market prices, appraised value of the collateral or management’s estimation of the value of the collateral. The Company considers all REO carried at fair value as nonrecurring Level 3.

The Company had off-balance sheet financial commitments, which include approximately $256,216 and $223,076 of commitments to originate loans, undisbursed portions of interim construction loans, and unused lines of credit at September 30, 2014 and June 30, 2014 (see Note 8). Since these commitments are based on current rates, the carrying amount approximates the fair value.

Estimated fair values were determined using the following methods and assumptions:

Cash and interest-bearing deposits – The stated amounts approximate fair values as maturities are less than 90 days.

Certificates of deposit in other banks – The stated amounts approximate fair values.

Securities available for sale and investment securities – Fair values are based on quoted market prices where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments.

Loans held for sale - The fair value of loans held for sale is determined by outstanding commitments from investors on a “best efforts” basis or current investor yield requirements, calculated on the aggregate loan basis.

Loans, net – Fair values for loans are estimated by segregating the portfolio by type of loan and discounting scheduled cash flows using current market interest rates for loans with similar terms and credit quality. A prepayment assumption is used as an estimate of the portion of loans that will be repaid prior to their scheduled maturity. Both the carrying value and estimated fair value amounts are shown net of the allowance for loan losses.

Other investments – This represents stock in the FHLB of Atlanta and Federal Reserve Bank with no existing market and no quoted market value. However, redemption of this stock has historically been at par value. Accordingly, cost is deemed to be a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Deposits – Fair values for demand deposits, money market accounts, and savings accounts are the amounts payable on demand as of September 30, 2014 and June 30, 2014. The fair value of certificates of deposit is estimated by discounting the contractual cash flows using current market interest rates for accounts with similar maturities.

Other borrowings – The fair value of advances from the FHLB is estimated based on current rates for borrowings with similar terms.

Accrued interest receivable and payable – The stated amounts of accrued interest receivable and payable approximate the fair value.

Limitations – Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Company’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

Fair value estimates are based on existing on-and-off balance sheet financial instruments without attempting to estimate the value of anticipated future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments. For example, a significant asset not considered a financial asset is premises and equipment. In addition, tax ramifications related to the realization of the unrealized gains and losses can have a significant effect on fair value estimates and have not been considered in any of the estimates.

10.	Subsequent Events

On August 13, 2014, the Bank received approval from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency to purchase the branch banking operations of ten locations in Virginia and North Carolina from Bank of America Corporation. Six of the branches are located in Roanoke Valley, two in Danville, one in Martinsville, Virginia, and one in Eden, North Carolina. The acquisition will add approximately $504 million of deposits. In addition to the branches, the Bank will acquire a small amount of loans as part of the transaction. The Bank expects the purchase to be effective Monday, November 17, 2014, following satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

As used throughout this report, the terms “we”, “our”, “us”, “HomeTrust Bancshares” or the “Company” refer to HomeTrust Bancshares, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, including HomeTrust Bank, National Association (the “Bank”) unless the context indicates otherwise.

Overview

HomeTrust Bancshares, Inc., a Maryland corporation, was organized in July 2012 for the purpose of becoming the holding company of HomeTrust Bank, upon the Bank’s conversion from a federal mutual to a federal stock savings bank

(“Conversion”). The Conversion was completed on July 10, 2012. On August 25, 2014, the Bank converted from a federal savings bank charter to a national bank charter and the Company is now a bank holding company. HomeTrust Bancshares, Inc. is regulated by the Federal Reserve Board (“FRB”). The Company has not engaged in any significant activity other than holding the stock of the Bank. Accordingly, the information set forth in this report, including financial statements and related data, relates primarily to the Bank and its subsidiaries.

The Bank, founded in 1926, is a national bank headquartered in Asheville, North Carolina. The Bank is regulated by the OCC, its primary federal regulator, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”), the insurer of its deposits. The Bank’s deposits are federally insured up to applicable limits by the FDIC.

Our principal business consists of attracting deposits from the general public and investing those funds, along with borrowed funds in loans secured primarily by first and second mortgages on one- to four-family residences, including home equity loans and construction and land/lot loans, commercial real estate loans, commercial and industrial loans, and municipal leases. Municipal leases are secured primarily by a ground lease for a firehouse or an equipment lease for fire trucks and firefighting equipment to fire departments located throughout North and South Carolina. We also purchase investment securities consisting primarily of mortgage-backed securities issued by United States Government agencies and government-sponsored enterprises, as well as, certificates of deposit insured by the FDIC.

We offer a variety of deposit accounts for individuals, businesses and nonprofit organizations. Deposits are our primary source of funds for our lending and investing activities.

We are significantly affected by prevailing economic conditions, as well as, government policies and regulations concerning, among other things, monetary and fiscal affairs, housing and financial institutions. Deposit flows are influenced by a number of factors, including interest rates paid on competing time deposits, other investments, account maturities, and the overall level of personal income and savings. Lending activities are influenced by the demand for funds, the number and quality of lenders, and regional economic cycles.

Our primary source of pre-tax income is net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between interest income, which is the income that we earn on our loans and investments, and interest expense, which is the interest that we pay on our deposits and borrowings. Changes in levels of interest rates affect our net interest income. A secondary source of income is noninterest income, which includes revenue we receive from providing products and services, including service charges on deposit accounts, mortgage banking income and gains and losses from sales of securities.

Our noninterest expenses consist primarily of salaries and employee benefits, expenses for occupancy, marketing and computer services and FDIC deposit insurance premiums. Salaries and benefits consist primarily of the salaries and wages paid to our employees, payroll taxes, expenses for retirement and other employee benefits. Occupancy expenses, which are the fixed and variable costs of buildings and equipment, consist primarily of lease payments, property taxes, depreciation charges, maintenance and costs of utilities.

In spite of persistently weak economic conditions and exceptionally low interest rates which have created an unusually challenging banking environment for an extended period, the Company experienced marked improvement in profitability in fiscal years 2013 and 2014 as real estate values modestly improved along with general economic conditions resulting in materially lower loan charge-offs and write-downs of real estate owned (“REO”) as compared to prior periods. As a result, during the quarters ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, we recorded a recovery for loan losses of $250,000 and $2.3 million, respectively, primarily due to lower net loan charge-offs and improved asset quality. For the quarter ended September 30, 2014, the Company had net income of $2.3 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, as compared to net income of $3.3 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2013. Although there continue to be indications that economic conditions in our market areas are improving from the recessionary downturn, the pace of recovery has been modest and uneven and ongoing stress in the economy will likely continue to be challenging going forward. However, over the past two years we have significantly added to our customer base, as well as substantially improved our risk profile by aggressively managing and reducing our problem assets, which has resulted in lower credit costs, and which we believe has positioned the Company well to meet this challenging environment with continued success.

We intend to expand through organic growth and through the acquisition of other community financial institutions and/or bank branches. Our goal is to continue to enhance our franchise value and earnings through strategic, planned growth in our banking operations, while maintaining the community-focused, relationship style of exceptional customer service that has differentiated our brand and characterized our success to date. As part of this strategy, on July 31, 2013, we completed our first acquisition as a public company, by acquiring BankGreenville Financial Corporation (“BankGreenville”) with one office in Greenville, South Carolina. BankGreenville reported total assets of $105.1 million, total deposits of $90.0 million, and stockholders’ equity of $9.6 million at June 30, 2013. On May 31, 2014, we completed our acquisition of Jefferson Bancshares, Inc. (“Jefferson”), the holding company for Jefferson Federal Bank. Jefferson had twelve offices located across East Tennessee

and reported total assets of $506.8 million, total deposits of $384.0 million, and stockholders’ equity of $54.4 million at March 31, 2014. Additionally, on July 31, 2014, we completed our acquisition of Bank of Commerce with one office in midtown Charlotte, North Carolina. As of June 30, 2014, Bank of Commerce had total assets of $123 million, total deposits of $93 million, and stockholders’ equity of $12 million. On July 21, 2014, the Bank opened a commercial loan production office (“LPO”) in downtown Roanoke, Virginia.

At September 30, 2014, we had 36 locations in North Carolina (including the Asheville metropolitan area, the “Piedmont” region, and Charlotte), South Carolina (Greenville), East Tennessee (including Kingsport/Johnson City, Knoxville, and Morristown) and our commercial loan production office in Roanoke, Virginia. We intend to expand through organic growth and through the acquisition of other community financial institutions and/or bank branches. Our goal is to continue to enhance our franchise value and earnings through strategic, planned growth in our banking operations, while maintaining the community-focused, relationship style of exceptional customer service that has differentiated our brand and characterized our success to date.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Certain of our accounting policies are important to the portrayal of our financial condition, since they require management to make difficult, complex or subjective judgments, some of which may relate to matters that are inherently uncertain. Estimates associated with these policies are susceptible to material changes as a result of changes in facts and circumstances. Facts and circumstances which could affect these judgments include, but are not limited to, changes in interest rates, changes in the performance of the economy and changes in the financial condition of borrowers. These policies relate to (i) the determination of the provision and the allowance for loan losses, (ii) business combinations, (iii) the valuation of REO, (iv) the calculation of post retirement plan expenses and benefits, and (v) the valuation of or recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities. These policies and estimates are described in further detail in Part II, Item 7 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies with the 2014 Form 10-K. There have not been any material changes in the Company's critical accounting policies and estimates as compared to the disclosure contained in the Company's 2014 Form 10-K.

On April 5, 2012, the JOBS Act was signed into law. The JOBS Act contains provisions that, among other things, reduce certain reporting requirements for qualifying public companies. As an “emerging growth company” we may delay adoption of new or revised accounting pronouncements applicable to public companies until such pronouncements are made applicable to private companies. We intend to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period, although we have not done so to date. Accordingly, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards or disclosures.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements. Refer to Note 2 of our consolidated financial statements for a description of recent accounting pronouncements including the respective dates of adoption and effects on results of operations and financial condition.

Comparison of Financial Condition at September 30, 2014 and June 30, 2014

Assets. Total assets increased $139.4 million, or 6.3%, to $2.21 billion at September 30, 2014 from $2.07 billion at June 30, 2014. This increase was largely due to the July 31, 2014 acquisition of Bank of Commerce, which increased total assets by $121.4 million and total liabilities by $115.0, net of fair value adjustments. The Company recorded $4.0 million of goodwill and $640,000 of core deposit intangibles in connection with the Bank of Commerce acquisition. Nonperforming assets decreased to $60.0 million, or 2.71% of total assets, at September 30, 2014, compared to $62.7 million, or 3.02% of total assets, at June 30, 2014 and $82.9 million, or 4.95% at September 30, 2013. The decrease in nonperforming assets was primarily due to loans returning to performing status as payment history and the borrower’s financial status improved. Nonperforming assets included $45.5 million in nonaccruing loans and $14.5 million in REO at September 30, 2014, compared to nonaccruing loans and REO of $47.0 million and $15.7 million at June 30, 2014 and $68.4 million and $14.5 million at September 30, 2013, respectively. At September 30, 2014, $23.3 million, or 51.3%, of nonaccruing loans were current on their required loan payments.

Cash and cash equivalents. Total cash and cash equivalents decreased $13.6 million, or 29.7%, to $32.2 million at September 30, 2014 from $45.8 million at June 30, 2014. The decrease was primarily due to the $12.1 million increase in certificates of deposit in other banks which have a higher yield than cash held in interest-earning accounts. All of the certificates of deposit in other banks are fully insured under the FDIC. At September 30, 2014, certificates of deposits in other banks totaled $175.9 million compared to $163.8 million at June 30, 2014. In addition, the Company repurchased $2.2 million of stock for cash during the first quarter of fiscal 2015.

Investments. Securities available for sale increased $7.5 million, or 4.4%, to $176.2 million at September 30, 2014 from $168.7 million at June 30, 2014 primarily as a result of the acquisition of Bank of Commerce. A total of $16.0 million of securities available for sale matured and $5.8 million of principal payments were received on securities available for sale during

the quarter ended September 30, 2014. The securities purchased and acquired during the period were primarily short- to intermediate-term U.S. government agency notes and mortgage-backed securities and, to a lesser extent, intermediate-term taxable municipal securities. Other investments increased $9.1 million primarily due to the purchase of $6.2 million of Federal Reserve Bank stock in conjunction with the Bank’s conversion to a national bank. We evaluate individual investment securities quarterly for other-than-temporary declines in market value. We do not believe that there are any other-than-temporary impairments at September 30, 2014; therefore, no impairment losses have been recorded during the first quarter of fiscal 2015.

Loans. Net loans receivable increased $112.0 million, or 7.6%, at September 30, 2014 to $1.59 billion from $1.47 billion at June 30, 2014 primarily due to the $86.2 million in loans acquired from Bank of Commerce. Since June 30, 2014, commercial real estate loans increased $77.5 million and commercial and industrial loans increased $16.7 million largely due to the Bank of Commerce acquisition. Excluding loans acquired from Bank of Commerce, net loans increased $25.8 million primarily related to an $18.6 million increase in commercial real estate loans. Total loan originations increased $43.6 million, or 55.3%, to $122.4 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2014 compared to $78.8 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2013.

Allowance for loan losses. The allowance for loan losses was $23.1 million, or 1.43% of total loans, at September 30, 2014 compared to $23.4 million, or 1.56% of total loans, at June 30, 2014. The allowance for loan losses was 1.97% of total loans at September 30, 2014, excluding loans acquired from BankGreenville, Jefferson, and Bank of Commerce. The Company recorded net loan charge-offs of $99,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2014 as compared to $573,000 for the same period last year. Net loan charge-offs as a percentage of average loans also decreased significantly to 0.03% for the quarter ended September 30, 2014 from 0.19%, for the quarter ended September 30, 2013. Nonaccruing loans decreased 3.2% to $45.5 million at September 30, 2014 from $47.0 million at June 30, 2014. Nonaccruing loans to total loans decreased to 2.83% at September 30, 2014 from 3.14% at June 30, 2014. At September 30, 2014, $23.3 million, or 51.3%, of total nonaccruing loans were current on their loan payments. The allowance as a percentage of nonaccruing loans increased slightly from 49.84% at June 30, 2014 to 50.76% at September 30, 2014.

The ratio of classified assets to total assets was 4.65% at September 30, 2014 compared to 4.56% at June 30, 2014 and 7.33% at September 30, 2013. Classified assets were $102.9 million at September 30, 2014 compared to $94.7 million and $122.6 million at June 30, 2014 and September 30, 2013. The increase since June 30, 2014 was primarily due to $4.8 million of loans acquired in the Bank of Commerce acquisition, the reclassification of a $1.5 million legacy commercial loan relationship, and various smaller loans across several loan categories.

Real estate owned. REO decreased $1.2 million, to $14.5 million at September 30, 2014 primarily due to the sale of $1.8 million in REO during the period partially offset by $533,000 in REO acquired in the Bank of Commerce acquisition and other foreclosures. The total balance of REO at September 30, 2014 included $6.1 million in land, construction and development projects (both residential and commercial), $4.6 million in commercial real estate and $3.8 million in single-family homes.

Deposits. Deposits increased $75.7 million, or 4.8%, from $1.58 billion at June 30, 2014 to $1.66 billion at September 30, 2014. This increase was primarily due to the acquisition of Bank of Commerce, which increased total deposits by $93.4 million. The Company also recorded $640,000 of core deposit intangibles in connection with the Bank of Commerce acquisition. Certificates of deposit decreased $21.3 million during the quarter primarily as a result of the managed decline of higher rate certificates of deposit as we competed less aggressively on time deposit interest rates, consistent with the Company’s strategy to decrease the percentage of time deposits in its deposit base and to increase the percentage of lower cost checking and savings accounts.

Borrowings. Other borrowings increased to $112.0 million at September 30, 2014 from $50.0 million at June 30, 2014 primarily as a result of $15.2 million in Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) advances assumed in the Bank of Commerce acquisition, as well as additional advances to fund asset growth. All FHLB advances have maturities of less than 90 days with a weighted average interest rate of 0.19% at September 30, 2014.

Equity. Stockholders’ equity at September 30, 2014 increased to $378.0 million from $377.2 million at June 30, 2014. The increase in stockholders’ equity primarily reflected a $2.3 million increase in retained earnings as a result of the net income from the first quarter of 2015 partially offset by the repurchase of 142,760 shares of common stock at an average cost of $15.56 per share, or approximately $2.2 million in total. As of September 30, 2014, the Company had repurchased on the open market 947,259 shares of the 989,183 authorized in the February 2014 stock repurchase plan at an average cost of $15.78 per share.

Rate/Volume Analysis

The following table presents the dollar amount of changes in interest income and interest expense for major components of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. It distinguishes between the changes related to outstanding balances and that due to the changes in interest rates. For each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, information is provided on changes attributable to (i) changes in volume (i.e., changes in volume multiplied by old rate) and (ii) changes in rate (i.e., changes in rate multiplied by old volume). For purposes of this table, changes attributable to both rate and volume, which cannot be segregated, have been allocated proportionately to the change due to volume and the change due to rate.

Comparison of Results of Operation for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2014 and 2013

General. During the three months ended September 30, 2014, we had net income of $2.3 million compared to $3.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013. The decrease in net income for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 was primarily the result of a $2.1 million decrease in the recovery for loan losses and a $1.2 million increase in merger expenses related to the acquisitions of Jefferson, Bank of Commerce, and our pending acquisition of ten branch banking operations from Bank of America. In addition, during the first quarter of fiscal 2014, we recorded a nonrecurring $962,000 charge related to the decline in value of our deferred tax assets based on decreases in North Carolina’s state corporate tax rates. On a basic and diluted per share basis, the Company earned $0.12 per share in the first quarter of fiscal 2015, compared to $0.17 per share in the first quarter of fiscal 2014.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income was $18.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014 compared to $13.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013. The $5.3 million, or 39.9%, increase was primarily due to increases in interest income of $5.0 million, coupled with a decrease in interest expense of $281,000. The net interest margin (on a fully taxable-equivalent basis) for the three months ended September 30, 2014 increased 25 basis points over the same period last year to 3.99%, due to a $370.4 million increase in average loan balances from our recent acquisitions. The yield on interest-earning assets (on a fully taxable-equivalent basis) for the quarter ended September 30, 2014 increased ten basis points to 4.25% while the rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities decreased 22 basis points to 0.32% as compared to the same period last year. Excluding the amortization of purchase accounting discounts on loans and certificates of deposit, the net interest margin (on a fully taxable-equivalent basis) for the quarter ended September 30, 2014 increased 13 basis points to 3.80% compared to 3.67% over the same period last year. Due to a significant number of adjustable-rate loans in the loan portfolio with interest rate floors below which the loans’ contractual interest rate may not adjust, net interest income will be negatively impacted in a rising interest rate environment until such time as the current rate exceeds these interest rate floors. As of September 30, 2014, our loans with interest rate floors totaled approximately $597.5 million and had a weighted average floor rate of 4.42% of which $281.1 million, or 47.09%, had yields that would begin floating again once prime rates increase at least 200 basis points.

Interest Income. Interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2014 was $19.9 million, compared to $14.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013, an increase of $5.0 million, or 33.8%. The increase in interest income occurred primarily as a result of the $370.4 million increase in average loans receivable obtained through the Jefferson and Bank of Commerce acquisitions offsetting a five basis point decline in the average tax-equivalent loan yield. Interest income on loans receivable increased by $4.5 million, or 31.8%, to $18.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014 from $14.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013. The average tax-equivalent yield on loans was 4.91% for the three months ended September 30, 2014, compared to 4.96% for the same three month period one year earlier. The decrease in average tax-equivalent loan yields reflects the continuing very low level of market interest rates, the maturity or repayment of higher yielding loans, and downward repricing of adjustable rate loans to current market rates.

The combined average balance of investment securities, deposits in other financial institutions, and other interest-earning assets increased by $58.0 million, or 18.8%, to $366.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014, while the interest and dividend income from those investments increased by $547,000 compared to the prior fiscal year. The increase in average balance was primarily due to the acquisition of investment securities from the Jefferson and Bank of Commerce mergers.

Interest Expense. Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2014 was $1.3 million, compared to $1.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013, a decrease of $281,000, or 18.2%. The decrease in interest expense occurred as a result of a 22 basis point decrease in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities to 0.32% for the three months ended September 30, 2014, from 0.54% for the same period one year earlier, despite a $419.4 million increase in average interest-bearing liabilities over the same time period as a result of our recent acquisitions. These decreases reflect lower deposit rates, specifically, the managed decline in certificates of deposit as our pricing decreases were designed to allow higher rate certificates of deposit to run off.

Deposit interest expense decreased $316,000, or 20.5%, to $1.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014 compared to $1.5 million for the same three month period in the prior fiscal year primarily as a result of a 33 basis point decrease in the average cost of certificates of deposit coupled with a 21 basis point decrease in the overall cost of deposits. Average borrowings increased to $71.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014, from $2.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013, while the average rate paid on borrowings decreased to 0.21% in the current three month period. This decrease in the average rate paid on borrowings was primarily a result of the increase in FHLB advances at lower, short-term rate.

Provision for Loan Losses. We establish an allowance for loan losses by charging amounts to the loan provision at a level required to reflect estimated credit losses in the loan portfolio. In evaluating the level of the allowance for loan losses, management considers, among other factors, historical loss experience, the types of loans and the amount of loans in the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect borrowers’ ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral, prevailing economic conditions and current risk factors specifically related to each loan type.

During the three months ended September 30, 2014, the recovery for loan losses was $250,000, compared to a $2.3 million recovery for loan losses for the three months ended September 30, 2013. The Company’s continued reversal of the provision for loan losses was driven by fewer loan chargeoffs and improved asset quality. The provision for loan losses reflects the amount required to maintain the allowance for losses at an appropriate level based upon management’s evaluation of the adequacy of general and specific loss reserves, trends in delinquencies and net charge-offs and current economic conditions.

The allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2014 primarily reflected the lingering weakness in the economy in our market areas and continued elevated level of delinquent, nonaccruing and classified loans, as well as declines in real estate values as compared to historical levels.

Nonaccruing loans decreased to $45.5 million at September 30, 2014 from $47.0 million at June 30, 2014 and $68.4 million at September 30, 2013. Delinquent loans (loans delinquent 30 days or more) decreased to $30.9 million at September 30, 2014, from $38.9 million at September 30, 2013.

Net charge-offs decreased to $99,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2014 from $573,000 for the same period last year. Net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans decreased to 0.03% for the quarter ended September 30, 2014 from 0.19% for the same period last fiscal year. A comparison of the allowance at September 30, 2014 and 2013 reflects a decrease of $6.1 million to $23.1 million at September 30, 2014, from $29.2 million at September 30, 2013. The allowance as a percentage of total loans decreased to 1.43% at September 30, 2014, compared to 2.44% at September 30, 2013. The allowance for loan losses was 1.97% of total loans at September 30, 2014, excluding loans acquired from BankGreenville, Jefferson, and Bank of Commerce. The allowance as a percentage of nonaccruing loans increased to 50.76% at September 30, 2014, compared to 42.69% at September 30, 2013. At September 30, 2014, $23.3 million, or 51.3%, of total nonaccruing loans were current on their loan payments, of which $14.5 million were TDRs.

As of September 30, 2014, we had identified $70.2 million of impaired loans. Our impaired loans are comprised of loans on non-accrual status and all TDRs, whether performing or on non-accrual status under their restructured terms. Impaired loans may be evaluated for reserve purposes using either a specific impairment analysis or on a collective basis as part of

homogeneous pools. For more information on these impaired loans, see Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 1 of this report.

We believe that the allowance for loan losses as of September 30, 2014 was adequate to absorb the known and inherent risks of loss in the loan portfolio at that date. While we believe the estimates and assumptions used in our determination of the adequacy of the allowance are reasonable, there can be no assurance that such estimates and assumptions will not be proven incorrect in the future, or that the actual amount of future provisions will not exceed the amount of past provisions or that any increased provisions that may be required will not adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the determination of the amount of the allowance for loan losses is subject to review by bank regulators as part of the routine examination process, which may result in the establishment of additional reserves based upon their judgment of information available to them at the time of their examination.

Noninterest Income. Noninterest income increased $498,000, or 21.9%, to $2.8 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 from $2.3 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2014, primarily due to a $383,000, or 56.4%, increase in service charges on deposit accounts related to our recent acquisitions.

Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense for the quarter ended September 30, 2014 increased $6.6 million, or 55.8%, to $18.5 million compared to $11.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2013. This increase was primarily related to a $2.6 million increase in salaries and employee benefits, a $1.2 million increase in merger-related expenses, a $703,000 increase in net occupancy expense, a $464,000 increase in computer services, and a $677,000 increase in other noninterest expense, all of which were primarily related to our recent acquisitions.

Income Taxes. For the three months ended September 30, 2014, we recorded income tax expense of $866,000, which was an effective tax rate of 27.7%, compared to an expense of $2.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013. This decrease was due to lower income before income taxes, as well as a nonrecurring $962,000 charge incurred in the first quarter of fiscal 2014 related to the decline in value of our deferred tax assets based on decreases in North Carolina’s state corporate tax rates. Beginning January 1, 2014, North Carolina’s corporate tax rate was reduced from 6.9% to 6.0% and to 5.0% in 2015 with additional reductions to 3.0% in 2017 possible in the event certain state revenue triggers are achieved. At September 30, 2014 and September 30, 2013, our deferred tax asset valuation allowance was $990,000 and $1.6 million, respectively. The decrease in the deferred tax asset valuation allowance was primarily due to the realization of all capital loss carryforwards included in the valuation allowance at September 30, 2013.

Liquidity

Management maintains a liquidity position that it believes will adequately provide funding for loan demand and deposit run-off that may occur in the normal course of business. We rely on a number of different sources in order to meet our potential liquidity demands. The primary sources are increases in deposit accounts and cash flows from loan payments and the securities portfolio.

In addition to these primary sources of funds, management has several secondary sources available to meet potential funding requirements. As of September 30, 2014, the Bank had an additional borrowing capacity of $212.9 million with the FHLB of Atlanta, a $108.5 million line of credit with the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond and a $20.0 million line of credit with another unaffiliated bank. At September 30, 2014, we had $112.0 million in FHLB advances outstanding and nothing outstanding under our other lines of credit. Additionally, the Company classifies its securities portfolio as available for sale, providing an additional source of liquidity. Management believes that our security portfolio is of high quality and the securities would therefore be marketable. In addition, we have historically sold longer term fixed-rate mortgage loans in the secondary market to reduce interest rate risk and to create still another source of liquidity. From time to time we also utilize brokered time deposits to supplement our other sources of funds. Brokered time deposits are obtained by utilizing an outside broker that is paid a fee. This funding requires advance notification to structure the type of deposit desired by us. Brokered deposits can vary in term from one month to several years and have the benefit of being a source of longer-term funding. We also utilize brokered deposits to help manage interest rate risk by extending the term to repricing of our liabilities, enhance our liquidity and fund asset growth. Brokered deposits are typically from outside our primary market areas, and our brokered deposit levels may vary from time to time depending on competitive interest rate conditions and other factors. At September 30, 2014 brokered deposits totaled $10.0 million, or 0.6% of total deposits.

Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of business management. Excess liquidity is generally invested in short-term investments, such as overnight deposits and federal funds. On a longer term basis, we maintain a strategy of investing in various lending products and investment securities, including mortgage-backed securities. HomeTrust Bancshares on a stand-alone level is a separate legal entity from the Bank and must provide for its own liquidity and pay its own operating expenses. The Company’s primary source of funds consists of the net proceeds retained from the Conversion. The Company also has the ability to receive dividends or capital distributions from the Bank, although there are regulatory restrictions on the ability of the Bank to pay dividends. At September 30, 2014, the Company (on an unconsolidated basis) had liquid assets of $37.4 million.

We use our sources of funds primarily to meet our ongoing commitments, pay maturing deposits and fund withdrawals, and to fund loan commitments. At September 30, 2014, the total approved loan commitments and unused lines of credit outstanding amounted to $52.2 million and $204.0 million, respectively, as compared to $55.4 million and $167.6 million, respectively, as of June 30, 2014. Certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in one year or less at September 30, 2014, totaled $408.9 million. It is management's policy to manage deposit rates that are competitive with other local financial institutions. Based on this management strategy, we believe that a majority of maturing deposits will remain with us.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2015, cash and cash equivalents decreased $13.6 million, or 29.7%, from $45.8 million as of June 30, 2014 to $32.2 million as of September 30, 2014. The decrease was primarily attributable to the $24.6 million net increase in loans. Cash used for operating activities of $2.9 million and cash used for investing activities of $37.6 million was partially offset by cash provided by financing activities of $27.0 million. Primary sources of cash for the three months ended September 30, 2014 included an increase in other borrowings of $46.8 million, proceeds from maturities of securities available for sale of $16.0 million and $5.8 million in principal repayments of mortgage-backed securities. Primary uses of cash during the period included an increase in loans of $24.6 million, a $17.7 million decrease in deposits (excluding the $93.4 million in deposits acquired from Bank of Commerce), the purchase of certificates of deposit in other banks, net of maturities, of $12.1 million and the net purchases of $8.3 million of other investments which includes stock of the FHLB of Atlanta and the Federal Reserve Bank.

Off-Balance Sheet Activities

In the normal course of operations, we engage in a variety of financial transactions that are not recorded in our financial statements. These transactions involve varying degrees of off-balance sheet credit, interest rate and liquidity risks. These transactions are used primarily to manage customers’ requests for funding and take the form of loan commitments and lines of credit. For the three months ended September 30, 2014, we engaged in no off-balance sheet transactions likely to have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

A summary of our off-balance sheet commitments to extend credit at September 30, 2014, is as follows (in thousands):

Commitments to make loans	$	52.2
Unused lines of credit		204.0
Total loan commitments	$	256.2

Capital Resources

At September 30, 2014, equity totaled $378.0 million. HomeTrust Bancshares, Inc. is a bank holding company registered with the FRB. Bank holding companies are subject to capital adequacy requirements of the FRB under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended and the regulations of the FRB. The Bank, as a national bank is subject to the capital requirements established by the OCC.

The capital adequacy requirements are quantitative measures established by regulation that require HomeTrust Bancshares, Inc. and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of capital. The FRB requires HomeTrust Bancshares, Inc. to maintain capital adequacy that generally parallels the OCC requirements. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by bank regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s financial statements. At September 30, 2014, HomeTrust Bancshares, Inc. and the Bank each exceeded all regulatory capital requirements. In addition, the Bank must maintain total risk-based capital, Tier 1 risk-based capital and Tier 1 leverage capital ratios of 10.00%, 6.00% and 5.00%, respectively to be considered “Well-Capitalized” for regulatory purposes. The Bank was categorized as “Well-Capitalized” at September 30, 2014 under the regulations of the OCC.

Impact of Inflation

The effects of price changes and inflation can vary substantially for most financial institutions. While management believes that inflation affects the growth of total assets, it believes that it is difficult to assess the overall impact. Management believes this to be the case due to the fact that generally neither the timing nor the magnitude of the inflationary changes in the consumer price index (“CPI”) coincides with changes in interest rates. The price of one or more of the components of the CPI may fluctuate considerably and thereby influence the overall CPI without having a corresponding effect on interest rates or upon the cost of those goods and services normally purchased by the Company. In years of high inflation and high interest rates, intermediate and long-term interest rates tend to increase, thereby adversely impacting the market values of investment securities, mortgage loans and other long-term fixed rate loans. In addition, higher short-term interest rates caused by inflation tend to increase the cost of funds. In other years, the opposite may occur.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

There has not been any material change in the market risk disclosures contained in our 2014 Form 10-K.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

An evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Act")) as of September 30, 2014, was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and several other members of the Company's senior management. The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures in effect as of September 30, 2014, were effective in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Act is: (i) accumulated and communicated to the Company's management (including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer) in a timely manner and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. In addition, there have been no changes in our internal control

over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Act) that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2014, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

The Company does not expect that its disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting will prevent all error and all fraud. A control procedure, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control procedure are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control procedures, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls may be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by override of the control. The design of any control procedure also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control procedure, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

On March 14, 2012, a civil suit was filed (which was amended on April 25, 2012) in the County of Buncombe, North Carolina, Civil Superior Court Division, Twenty-Eighth Judicial Circuit, case number 2012CV-01206, by Leslie A. Whittington and 20 other plaintiffs against the Bank and a third party brokerage firm. The plaintiffs seek actual damages of $12.5 million and additional treble or such other punitive damages as determined by the court. The suit alleges that the defendants should have been aware of the Ponzi scheme perpetrated by Mr. William Bailey through his company, Southern Financial Services, as a result of the transactions into and from the accounts at the Bank and the brokerage firm. The suit further alleges that the defendants were negligent and reckless in not monitoring, discovering and reporting the unlawful conduct of Mr. Bailey, including that he was kiting checks and converting funds for his own use. In addition, the suit claims the defendants were unjustly enriched by the fees they received from their business relationship with Mr. Bailey. Mr. Bailey pled guilty to federal criminal charges of securities fraud, mail fraud and filing false income taxes related to this matter in February 2011 and was sentenced on February 27, 2013.

The Company believes that the lawsuit is without merit and intends to defend itself vigorously; however, there can be no assurance that the Company will successfully defend or resolve this litigation matter. Based on the information available to the Company’s litigation counsel at this time, they believe that the claims in this case are legally and factually without merit. Because this lawsuit is still in discovery, such counsel is unable to give an opinion at this time as to the likely outcome. Management, after review with its legal counsel, is of the opinion that this litigation should not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations, although new developments could result in management modifying its assessment.

Apart from the foregoing, from time to time we are involved as plaintiff or defendant in various legal actions arising in the normal course of business. We do not anticipate incurring any material liability as a result of any such litigation.
