Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

(1)    General. OptimumBank Holdings, Inc. (the “Holding Company”) is a one-bank holding company and owns 100% of OptimumBank (the “Bank”), a state (Florida)-chartered commercial bank (collectively, the “Company”).

(4)    Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings per share has been computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share were computed based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding plus the effect of outstanding stock options, computed using the treasury stock method. All amounts reflect the 5% stock dividend declared in May 2007. Earnings per common share have been computed based on the following:

 

     Three Months Ended
March 31,
     2008    2007

Weighted average number of common shares outstanding used to calculate basic earnings per common share

   2,972,507    2,961,294

Effect of dilutive stock options

   62,853    97,893
         

Weighted average number of common shares outstanding used to calculate diluted earnings per common share

   3,035,360    3,059,187
         

The following options were excluded from the calculation of earnings per share due to the exercise price being above the average market price:

 

     Number
Outstanding
   Exercise Price    Expire

For the three months ended March 31, 2008-
Options

   254,678    $ 10.00-12.49    2014-2015

For the three months ended March 31, 2007-
Options

   10,500    $ 12.49    2015

(5)    Stock-Based Compensation. The Company follows the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment (“SFAS 123(R)”), using the modified-prospective-transition method. Under that transition method, compensation cost to be recognized includes: (a) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value calculated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS 123, and (b) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted subsequent to December 31, 2005, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123(R). As of December 31, 2006, all stock options were fully vested and no options were granted in 2007 or 2008; therefore, no stock-based compensation has been recognized in 2007 or 2008.

 

(continued)

(5)    Stock-Based Compensation, Continued. The Company established an Incentive Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”) for officers, directors and employees of the Company and reserved 572,082 (amended) shares of common stock for the plan. Both incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options may be granted under the plan. The exercise price of the stock options is determined by the board of directors at the time of grant, but cannot be less than the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. The options vest over three and five years. The options must be exercised within ten years from the date of grant. At March 31, 2008, 13,561 options were available for grant.

A summary of the activity in the Company’s stock option plan is as follows. All amounts reflect the 5% stock dividend declared in May 2007. The Board of Directors did not adjust the exercise price of the stock options outstanding to reflect the 5% stock dividend (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts):

   479,607    $ 8.06    5.3 years    $ 733
                       

(6)    Common Stock Dividend. On May 31, 2007, the Company’s board of directors declared a 5% stock dividend to shareholders of record on June 12, 2007 and paid on July 12, 2007.

(7)    Fair Value Measurements. Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS 157”). SFAS 157 clarifies the definition of fair value and describes methods available to appropriately measure fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. This statement applies whenever other accounting pronouncements require or permit fair value measurements.

The Company performs fair-market valuations on certain assets as the result of the application of accounting guidelines that were in effect prior to the adoption of SFAS 157. These assets include securities that are available for sale and are valued based upon open-market quotes obtained from reputable third-party brokers which is considered a Level I fair value measurement. Level I fair value measurements are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. Market pricing is based upon specific CUSIP identification for each individual security. Changes in fair value are recorded in other comprehensive income.

(7)    Fair Value Measurements, Continued. Also effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities-Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (“SFAS 159”). SFAS 159 provides companies with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value. Most of the provisions of this statement apply only to entities that elect the fair value option. However, the amendment to SFAS No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, applies to all entities with available-for-sale and trading securities. SFAS 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between companies that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. Management determined that this Statement had no material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Review by Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Hacker, Johnson & Smith PA, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, have made a limited review of the interim financial data as of March 31, 2008, and for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, presented in this document, in accordance with standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board.

Their report furnished pursuant to Article 10 of Regulation S-X is included herein.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

OptimumBank Holdings, Inc.

Fort Lauderdale, Florida:

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of OptimumBank Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiary (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2008, and the condensed consolidated statements of earnings, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2008 and 2007. These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2007, and the related consolidated statements of earnings, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated March 21, 2008, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2007, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Comparison of March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s primary sources of cash during the three months ended March 31, 2008 were from an increase in other borrowings of approximately $12.9 million, an increase in Federal Home Loan Bank advances of approximately $8.0 million, principal repayments of securities held to maturity of approximately $2.0 million, net loan repayments of approximately $6.2 million and cash provided from operating activities of approximately $1.1 million. Cash was used primarily for purchases of securities of approximately $20.7 million and to fund deposit withdrawals of approximately $8.7 million. At March 31, 2008, the Company had time deposits of approximately $71.0 million that mature in one year or less. At March 31, 2008, the Company exceeded its regulatory liquidity requirements. Management believes that, if so desired, it can adjust the rates on time deposits to retain or attract deposits in a changing interest-rate environment.

The following table shows selected information for the periods ended or at the dates indicated:

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis

of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, Continued

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and undisbursed loans in process. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest-rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The contract or notional amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of the Company’s involvement in particular classes of financial instruments.

The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and undisbursed loans in process is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total committed amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if it is deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counter party.

A summary of the amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, with off-balance sheet risk at March 31, 2008, follows (in thousands):

 

     Contract
Amount

Commitments to extend credit

   $ 2,450
      

Undisbursed loans in process

   $ 9
      

Management believes that the Company has adequate resources to fund all of its commitments and that substantially all its existing commitments will be funded in the next twelve months.

Comparison of the Three-Month Periods Ended March 31, 2008 and 2007

General. Net earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2008, were $429,000 or $.14 per basic and diluted share compared to net earnings of $416,000 or $.14 per basic and diluted share for the period ended March 31, 2007. The increase in the Company’s net earnings was primarily due to an increase in net interest income and a decrease in the provision for loan losses, partially offset by a decrease in noninterest income.

Interest Income. Interest income increased to $4.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008 from $3.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007. Interest income on loans decreased to $3.1 million due primarily to a decrease in the average loan portfolio balance for the three months ended March 31, 2008, partially offset by an increase in the average yield earned from 7.40% for the three months ended March 31, 2007, to 7.44% for the three months ended March 31, 2008. Interest income on securities increased to $853,000 due primarily to an increase in the average security balance for the three months ended March 31, 2008, and an increase in the average yield earned from 5.10% for the three months ended March 31, 2007, to 5.61% for the three months ended March 31, 2008.

Interest Expense. Interest expense on deposit accounts decreased to $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008, from $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007. Interest expense decreased primarily because of a decrease in the average balance of deposits during 2008. Interest expense on borrowings increased to $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008, from $766,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2007, due to an increase in the average balance of borrowings.

Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for the three months ended March 31, 2008, was $121,000 compared to $311,000 for the same period in 2007. The provision for loan losses is charged to earnings as losses are estimated to have occurred in order to bring the total allowance for loan losses to a level deemed appropriate by management. Management’s periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is based upon historical experience, the volume and type of lending conducted by us, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, estimated value of the underlying collateral, loans identified as impaired, general economic conditions, particularly as they relate to our market areas, and other factors related to the estimated collectibility of our loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses totaled $794,000 or .47% of loans outstanding at March 31, 2008, compared to $1,113,000, or .60% of loans outstanding at March 31, 2007. Management believes the balance in the allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2008 is adequate.

Noninterest Income. Total noninterest income decreased to $42,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2008, from $234,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2007, primarily due to a litigation settlement of $150,000 in March 2007 and a decrease in loan prepayment fees of $68,000.

Noninterest Expenses. Total noninterest expenses increased to $909,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2008, from $892,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2007, primarily due to an increase in salaries and employee benefits of $38,000.

Income Taxes. Income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2008, were $259,000 (an effective rate of 37.6%) compared to income taxes of $202,000 (an effective rate of 32.7%) for the three months ended March 31, 2007.
