General.  OptimumBank Holdings, Inc. (the “Holding Company”) is a one-bank holding company and owns 100% of OptimumBank (the “Bank”), a Florida chartered commercial bank.  The Bank’s wholly-owned subsidiaries are OB Real Estate Management, LLC, OB Real Estate Holdings, LLC and OB Real Estate Holding 1503, LLC, all of which were formed in 2009, OB Real Estate Holdings 1695, OB Real Estate Holdings 1669, OB Real Estate Holdings 1645, OB Real Estate Holdings 1620 and OB Real Estate Holdings 1565, all formed in 2010; OB Real Estate Holdings 1443 and OB Real Estate Holdings Northwood, OB Real Estate Holdings 1596, OB Real Estate Holdings 1636 formed in 2011; and OB Real Estate Holdings 1655, OB Real Estate Holdings 1692, OB Real Estate Holdings 1704, OB Real Estate Holdings Rosemary and OB Real Estate Holdings Sillato formed in 2012 (the “Real Estate Holding Subsidiaries”).  The Holding Company’s only business is the operation of the Bank and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”).  The Bank’s deposits are insured up to applicable limits by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). The Bank offers a variety of commercial banking services to individual and corporate customers through its three banking offices located in Broward County, Florida.  OB Real Estate Management, LLC is primarily engaged in managing foreclosed real estate.  This subsidiary had no activity in 2013 and 2012.  All other subsidiaries are primarily engaged in holding and disposing of foreclosed real estate.
 
 
In the opinion of the management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company contain all adjustments (consisting principally of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position at September 30, 2013, and the results of operations for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, and cash flows for the nine-months periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.  The results of operations for the three- and nine-months ended September 30, 2013, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
 
 
Comprehensive Loss. Generally accepted accounting principles generally require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net loss.  Although certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities, are reported as a separate component of the equity section of the consolidated balance sheet, such items along with net loss, are components of comprehensive loss.  The only component of other comprehensive loss is the net change in the unrealized gain on the securities available for sale.
 
 
Income Taxes. During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company assessed its earnings history and trend over the past year and its estimate of future earnings, and determined that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will not be realized in the near term.  Accordingly, a valuation allowance was recorded against the net deferred tax asset for the amount not expected to be realized in the future.  Based on the available evidence at September 30, 2013, the Company determined that it is still more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will not be realized in the near term.

General, Continued.
 
Recent Accounting Standards Update. In July 2012, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2012-02, “Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment,” which, among other things, gives an entity the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. The Company adopted this ASU on January 1, 2013, and since the Company does not have intangible assets, it had no impact on its consolidated financial statements.
 
 
In January 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-01, “Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities,” which limits the scope of the new balance sheet offsetting disclosures in ASU 2011-11 to derivatives, repurchase agreements, and securities lending transactions to the extent that they are (1) offset in the financial statements or (2) subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement. The Company adopted this ASU on February 1, 2013 and it had no impact on its consolidated financial statements.
 
 
In February 2013, the FASB Issued ASU No. 2013-02, “Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income,” which requires entities to present information about reclassification adjustments from accumulated other comprehensive income in their annual financial statements in a single note or on the face of the financial statements. The Company adopted this ASU on March 1, 2013 and it had no impact on its consolidated financial statements.
 
 
In February 2013, the FASB Issued ASU No. 2013-04, “Obligations Resulting from Joint and Several Liability Arrangements for Which the Total Amount of the Obligation Is Fixed at the Reporting Date.” ASU 2013-04 provides guidance for the recognition, measurement, and disclosure of obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements for obligations within the scope of this ASU, which is effective January 1, 2014. Upon adoption, the Company does not expect this ASU to impact its consolidated financial statements.
 
 
In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-11, “Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists,” which among other things, require an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, to be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward, except as denoted within the ASU. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. The Company is currently evaluating the impact on its consolidated financial statements with respect to ASU 2013-11.
 
 
In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-10, “Inclusion of the Fed Funds Effective Swap Rate (or Overnight Index Swap Rate) as a Benchmark Interest Rate for Hedge Accounting Purposes.ASU No. 2013-10 permits the use of the Fed Funds Effective Swap Rate (OIS) to be used as a U.S. benchmark interest rate for hedge account purposes. The amendment is effective prospectively for qualifying new or redesiginated hedging relationships entered into on or after July 17, 2013. The adoption of ASU No. 2013-10 did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Recent Regulatory Developments
 
Basel III Legislation.  On July 2, 2013, the Federal Reserve Board (“FRB”) approved the final rules implementing the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision’s capital guidelines for U.S. banks. Under the final rules, minimum requirements will increase for both the quantity and quality of capital held by the Bank. The rules include a new common equity Tier I capital to risk-weighted assets ratio of 4.5% and a common equity Tier 1 capital conservation buffer of 2.5% of risk-weighted assets. The final rules also raise the minimum ratio of Tier I capital to risk-weighted assets from 4.0% to 6.0% and require a minimum leverage ratio of 4.0%. The final rules also implement strict eligibility criteria for regulatory capital instruments. On July 9, 2013, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) also approved, as an interim final rule, the regulatory capital requirements for U.S. banks, following the actions of the FRB. The FDIC’s rule is identical in substance to the final rules issued by the FRB.
 
 
The phase-in period for the final rules will begin for the Company on January 1, 2015, with full compliance with all of the final rule’s requirements phased in over a multi-year schedule. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of the final rules and their expected impact on the Company.

The unrealized losses on investment securities were caused by market conditions.  It is expected that the securities would not be settled at a price less than the book value of the investments.  Because the decline in fair value is attributable to market conditions and not credit quality, and because the Company has the ability and intent to hold these investments until a market price recovery or maturity, these investments are not considered other-than-temporarily impaired.

Securities, Continued.  Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluation.  A security is impaired if the fair value is less than its carrying value at the financial statement date. When a security is impaired, the Company determines whether this impairment is temporary or other-than-temporary. In estimating other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) losses, management assesses whether it intends to sell, or it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell, a security in an unrealized loss position before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either of these criteria is met, the entire difference between amortized cost and fair value is recognized in operations. For securities that do not meet the aforementioned criteria, the amount of impairment recognized in operations is limited to the amount related to credit losses, while impairment related to other factors is recognized in other comprehensive loss. Management utilizes cash flow models to segregate impairments to distinguish between impairment related to credit losses and impairment related to other factors. To assess for OTTI, management considers, among other things, (i) the severity and duration of the impairment; (ii) the ratings of the security; (iii) the overall transaction structure (the Company’s position within the structure, the aggregate, near-term financial performance of the underlying collateral, delinquencies, defaults, loss severities, recoveries, prepayments, cumulative loss projections, and discounted cash flows; and (iv) the timing and magnitude of a break in modeled cash flows.
 
 
In evaluating mortgage-backed securities with unrealized losses, management utilizes various resources, including input from independent third party firms to perform an analysis of expected future cash flows. The process begins with an assessment of the underlying collateral backing the mortgage pools. Management develops specific assumptions using as much market data as possible and includes internal estimates as well as estimates published by rating agencies and other third-party sources. The data for the individual borrowers in the underlying mortgage pools are generally segregated by state, FICO score at issue, loan to value at issue and income documentation criteria. Mortgage pools are evaluated for current and expected levels of delinquencies and foreclosures, based on where they fall in the proscribed data set of FICO score, geographics, LTV and documentation type and a level of loss severity is assigned to each security based on its experience. The above-described historical data is used to develop current and expected measures of cumulative default rates as well as ultimate loss frequency and severity within the underlying mortgages. This reveals the expected future cash flows within the mortgage pool. The data described above is then input to an industry recognized model to assess the behavior of the particular security tranche owned by the Company. Significant inputs in this process include the structure of any subordination structures, if applicable, and are dictated by the structure of each particular security as laid out in the offering documents. The forecasted cash flows from the mortgage pools are input through the security structuring model to derive expected cash flows for the specific security owned by the Company to determine if the future cash flows are expected to exceed the book value of the security. The values for the significant inputs are updated on a regular basis.  During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company recorded other-than-temporary impairment charges totaling $9,000 and $362,000, respectively. During the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012, the Company recorded other-than-temporary impairment charges totaling $101,000 and $204,000, respectively.

Loans, Continued.  The Company has divided the loan portfolio into six portfolio segments, each with different risk characteristics and methodologies for assessing risk. The portfolio segments identified by the Company are as follows:
 
 
 
Residential Real Estate, Multi-Family Real Estate, Commercial Real Estate, Land and Construction. Residential real estate loans are underwritten in accordance with policies set forth and approved by the Board of Directors (the “Board”), including repayment capacity and source, value of the underlying property, credit history and stability. Multi-family real estate and commercial real estate loans are secured by the subject property and are underwritten based upon standards set forth in the policies approved by the Company’s Board. Such standards include, among other factors, loan to value limits, cash flow coverage and general creditworthiness of the obligors. Land and construction loans to borrowers are to finance the construction of owner occupied and leased properties. These loans are categorized as construction loans during the construction period, later converting to commercial or residential real estate loans after the construction is complete and amortization of the loan begins. Real estate development and construction loans are approved based on an analysis of the borrower and guarantor, the viability of the project and on an acceptable percentage of the appraised value of the property securing the loan. Real estate development and construction loan funds are disbursed periodically based on the percentage of construction completed. The Company carefully monitors these loans with on-site inspections and requires the receipt of lien waivers on funds advanced. Development and construction loans are typically secured by the properties under development or construction, and personal guarantees are typically obtained. Further, to assure that reliance is not placed solely on the value of the underlying property, the Company considers the market conditions and feasibility of proposed projects, the financial condition and reputation of the borrower and guarantors, the amount of the borrower’s equity in the project, independent appraisals, costs estimates and pre-construction sale information. The Company also makes loans on occasion for the purchase of land for future development by the borrower. Land loans are extended for the future development for either commercial or residential use by the borrower. The Company carefully analyzes the intended use of the property and the viability thereof.

Commercial Loans. Commercial loans are primarily underwritten on the basis of the borrowers’ ability to service such debt from income. The cash flows of borrowers, however, may not be as expected and the collateral securing these loans may fluctuate in value. As a general practice, the Company takes as collateral a security interest in any available real estate, equipment, or other chattel, although loans may also be made on an unsecured basis. Collateralized working capital loans typically are secured by short-term assets whereas long-term loans are primarily secured by long-term assets.  These loans are also affected by adverse economic conditions should they prevail within the Company’s local market.
 
Consumer Loans.  Consumer loans are extended for various purposes, including purchases of automobiles, recreational vehicles, and boats. Also offered are home improvement loans, lines of credit, personal loans, and deposit account collateralized loans. Repayment of these loans is primarily dependent on the personal income of the borrowers, which can be impacted by economic conditions in their market areas such as unemployment levels. Loans to consumers are extended after a credit evaluation, including the creditworthiness of the borrower(s), the purpose of the credit, and the secondary source of repayment. Consumer loans are made at fixed and variable interest rates and may be made on terms of up to ten years. Risk is mitigated by the fact that the loans are of smaller individual amounts and spread over a large number of borrowers.

Loans, Continued.  Internally assigned loan grades are defined as follows:
 
 
Pass – a Pass loan’s primary source of loan repayment is satisfactory, with secondary sources very likely to be realized if necessary.  These are loans that conform in all aspects to bank policy and regulatory requirements, and no repayment risk has been identified.
 
 
OLEM (Other Loans Especially Mentioned) – an Other Loan Especially Mentioned has potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention.  If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in the deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or the Company’s credit position at some future date.
 
 
Substandard – a Substandard loan is inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any.  Loans so classified must have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt.  They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
 
 
Doubtful – a loan classified Doubtful has all the weaknesses inherent in one classified Substandard, with the added characteristics that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.
 
 
Loss – a loan classified Loss is considered uncollectible and of such little value that continuance as a bankable asset is not warranted.  This classification does not mean that the asset has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but rather it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off this basically worthless asset even though partial recovery may be affected in the future.  The Company fully charges off any loan classified as Loss.

Stock-Based Compensation.  On December 27, 2011, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2011 Equity Incentive Plan (“2011 Plan”).  A total of 532,125 shares of common stock are available to be issued under the 2011 Plan.  Options, restricted stock, performance share awards and bonus share awards in lieu of obligations may be issued under the 2011 Plan.  Both incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options can be granted under the 2011 Plan.  The exercise price of the stock options cannot be less than the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant.  Effective January 1, 2012, the Company adopted a Non- Employee Director Compensation Plan under which bonus shares issuable under the 2011 Plan may be earned as compensation to outside directors. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, 20,824 shares of stock valued at approximately $34,811 have been earned under the 2011 Plan and Non-Employee Director Compensation Plan as compensation to outside directors.

Regulatory Matters- Bank. Effective April 16, 2010, the Bank consented to the issuance of a Consent Order by the FDIC and the OFR, also effective as of April 16, 2010.
 
 
The Consent Order represents an agreement among the Bank, the FDIC and the OFR as to areas of the Bank’s operations that warrant improvement and presents a plan for making those improvements. The Consent Order imposes no fines or penalties on the Bank. The Consent Order will remain in effect and enforceable until it is modified, terminated, suspended, or set aside by the FDIC and the OFR.
 
 
The Consent Order contains the following principal requirements:
 
 
The Board of the Bank is required to increase its participation in the affairs of the Bank and assume full responsibility for the approval of sound policies and objectives for the supervision of all of the Bank’s activities.
 
The Bank is required to have and retain qualified and appropriately experienced senior management, including a chief executive officer, a chief lending officer and a chief financial officer, who are given the authority to implement the provisions of the Consent Order.
 
Any proposed changes in the Bank’s Board of Directors or senior executive officers are subject to the prior consent of the FDIC and the OFR.
 
The Bank is required to maintain both a fully funded allowance for loan and lease losses satisfactory to the FDIC and the OFR and a minimum Tier 1 leverage capital ratio of 8% and a total risk-based capital ratio of 12% for as long as the Consent Order remains in effect.
 
The Bank must undertake over a two-year period a scheduled reduction of the balance of loans classified “substandard” and “doubtful” in its 2009 FDIC examination by at least 75%.
 
The Bank is required to reduce the volume of its adversely classified private label mortgage backed securities under a plan acceptable to the FDIC and OFR.
 
The Bank must submit to the FDIC and the OFR for their review and comment a written business/strategic plan covering the overall operation of the Bank.
 
The Bank must implement a plan to improve earnings, addressing goals and strategies for improving and sustaining earnings, major areas for improvement in the Bank’s operating performance, realistic and comprehensive budgets and a budget review process.
 
The Bank is required to revise, implement and incorporate recommendations of the FDIC and OFR with respect to the following policies or plans:
 
o
Lending and Collection Policies;
 
o
Investment Policy;

o
Interest Rate Risk Management Policy;
 
o
Internal Loan Review and Grading System;
 
o

o
A plan to reduce concentration in commercial real estate loans.
 
The Bank’s Board of Directors must review the adequacy of the allowance for loan and lease losses and establish a comprehensive policy satisfactory to the FDIC and OFR for determining such adequacy at least quarterly thereafter.
 
The Bank may not pay any dividends or bonuses without the prior approval of the FDIC.
 
The Bank may not accept, renew or rollover any brokered deposits except with the prior approval of the FDIC.
 
The Bank is required to notify the FDIC and OFR prior to undertaking asset growth of 10% or more per annum while the Consent Order remains in effect.
 
The Bank is required to file quarterly progress reports with the FDIC and the OFR.
 
 
Management believes that the Bank is currently in substantial compliance with all the requirements of the Consent Order except for the following requirements:
 
Development of a plan to reduce Bank’s concentration in commercial real estate loans acceptable to the supervisory authorities; and
 
Capital ratio requirements of 12% of total risk-based capital and 8% Tier I leverage capital ratio.
 
 
The Bank has implemented comprehensive policies and plans to address all of the requirements of the Consent Order and has incorporated recommendations from the FDIC and OFR into these policies and plans. The Board intends to seek capital through investors.  Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Company will raise sufficient capital for the Bank to achieve and maintain material compliance with these ratios.
 
(11)

Financial Condition at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012
 
Overview
 
Our total assets declined by $15.9 million to $127.8 million at September 30, 2013, from $143.7 million at December 31, 2012, due to a $3.1 million reduction in foreclosed real estate and a $14.4  million reduction in cash primarily as a result of a reduction in deposits and Federal Home Loan Bank advances.  Deposits decreased by $4.3 million to $97.3 million at September 30, 2013, from $101.6 million at December 31, 2012, primarily due to a reduction in savings, NOW and money market deposits, which were a planned reduction in an effort to reduce the Bank’s cost of funds, and noninterest-bearing demand deposits, which were a planned reduction to select customers to decrease volatility on the balance sheet. Total stockholders’ equity decreased by $4.8 million to $2.1 million at September 30, 2013 from $6.9 million at December 31, 2012, due to a $4.7 million net loss for the nine month period ended September 30, 2013.

Despite the slowing decline of  real estate values in South Florida, we continue to experience the adverse effects of the prolonged real estate devaluation resulting in significant levels of non-performing loans,  foreclosed real estate and loan charge-offs.   Management, however, is committed to minimizing further losses in the loan portfolio and reducing our nonperforming assets.

Liquidity and Sources of Funds
 
The Bank’s sources of funds include customer deposits, advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (“FHLB”), principal repayments and sales of investment securities, loan repayments, foreclosed real estate sales, the use of Federal Funds markets, net earnings, if any, and loans taken out at the Federal Reserve Bank discount window.
 
Deposits are our primary source of funds.  Under the Consent Order, the interest rates that we pay on our market area deposits and our ability to accept brokered deposits is restricted.  The restriction on brokered deposits is not expected to alter the Bank’s current deposit gathering activities since the Bank has not accepted, renewed or rolled over any brokered deposits since December 2009.  With respect to the yield limitations, it is possible that the Bank could experience a decrease in deposit inflows, or the migration of current deposits to competitor institutions, if other institutions offer higher interest rates than those permitted to be offered by the Bank. Despite these yield limitations, we believe that we have the ability to adjust rates on our deposits to attract or retain deposits as needed.
 
In addition to obtaining funds from depositors, we may borrow funds from other financial institutions. At September 30, 2013, the Bank had outstanding borrowings of $20.2 million, against its $31.7 million in established borrowing capacity with the FHLB. The Bank’s borrowing facility is subject to collateral and stock ownership requirements, as well as prior FHLB consent to each advance. In 2010, the Bank obtained an available discount window credit line with the Reserve Bank, currently $1.9 million.   The Reserve Bank line is subject to collateral requirements and must be repaid within 90 days; each advance is subject to prior Reserve Bank consent. In addition, in 2013 the Bank established a new credit facility of $2.5 million with SunTrust Bank, subject to the same stock collateral requirements as the FHLB line. We measure and monitor our liquidity daily and believe our liquidity sources are adequate to meet our operating needs.
 
The Company, on an unconsolidated basis, typically relies on dividends from the Bank to fund its operating expenses, primarily expenses of being publicly held, and to make interest payments on its outstanding trust preferred securities.  Under the Consent Order, the Bank is currently unable to pay dividends without prior regulatory approval.  In addition, under the Written Agreement, we may not pay interest payments on the trust preferred securities or dividends on our common stock, incur any additional indebtedness at the holding company level, or redeem our common stock without the prior regulatory approval of the Reserve Bank.  Since January 2010, we have deferred interest payments on our trust preferred securities.

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 are commitments to extend credit and may 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 amounts of these instruments reflect the extent of the Company’s involvement in these financial 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.  As of September 30, 2013, the Company had commitments to extend credit totaling $1.2 million.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, Continued
 
Comparison of the Three-Month Periods Ended September 30, 2013 and 2012
 
 
General.  Net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2013, was $0.3 million or $(.05) per basic and diluted share compared to a net loss of $1.0 million or $(.14) per basic and diluted share for the period ended September 30, 2012.  This decrease in the Company’s net loss was primarily due to a decrease in the provision for loan losses.
 
 
Interest Income.  Interest income remained at $1.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.
 
 
Interest Expense.  Interest expense decreased to $0.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013 from $0.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012.  Interest expense decreased primarily because of a decrease in the average yield paid during 2013 and a decrease in the average balance of deposits in 2013.
 
 
Provision for Loan Losses.  The provision for the three months ended September 30, 2013, was $0 compared to $0.2 million for the same period in 2012.  The provision for loan losses is charged to operations as losses are estimated to have occurred in order to bring the total allowance for loan losses to a level deemed appropriate by management to absorb losses inherent in the portfolio at September 30, 2013. Management’s periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is based upon historical experience, the volume and type of lending conducted, 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 market areas, and other factors related to the estimated collectability of the loan portfolio.  The allowance for loan losses totaled $2.9 million or 3.46% of loans outstanding at September 2013, compared to $2.5 million, or 2.81% of loans outstanding at December 31, 2012. Management believes the balance in the allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2013 is adequate.
 
 
Noninterest Income.  Total noninterest income decreased to $6,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, from $10,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2012.
 
 
Noninterest Expenses.  Total noninterest expenses decreased to $1.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013 compared to $1.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012, primarily as a result of a reduction in professional fees and foreclosed real estate expense.
 
 
Other-Than-Temporary Impairment on Securities. Other-than-temporary impairment on securities decreased to $9,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, Continued
 
Comparison of the Nine-Month Periods Ended September 30, 2013 and 2012
 
 
General.  Net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, was $4.7 million or $(.60) per basic and diluted share compared to a net loss of $2.4 million or $(.36) per basic and diluted share for the period ended September 30, 2012.  This increase in the Company’s net loss was primarily due to increases in foreclosed real estate expense and provision for loan losses.
 
 
Interest Income.  Interest income remained at $ 3.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.
 
 
Interest Expense.  Interest expense decreased to $1.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, from $2.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.  Interest expense on deposits decreased primarily because of a decrease in the average yield paid on deposits in 2013 and a decrease in the average balance of deposits in 2013.
 
 
Provision for Loan Losses.  The provision for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, was $2.2 million compared to $0.4 million for the same period in 2012.  The provision for loan losses is charged to operations as losses are estimated to have occurred in order to bring the total allowance for loan losses to a level deemed appropriate by management to absorb losses inherent in the loan portfolio at September 30, 2013. 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 collectability of our loan portfolio.  The allowance for loan losses totaled $2.9 million or 3.46% of loans outstanding at September 30, 2013, compared to $2.5 million, or 2.81% of loans outstanding at December 31, 2012. Management believes the balance in the allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2013 is adequate.
 
 
Noninterest Income.  Total noninterest income decreased to $82,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, from $198,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.
 
 
Noninterest Expenses.  Total noninterest expenses increased to $4.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 from $3.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, primarily due to a $0.7 million increase in foreclosed real estate expense.
 
 
Other-Than-Temporary Impairment on Securities. Other-than-temporary impairment on securities increased to $0.4 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2013 from $0.2 million for the same period in 2012.  The impairment resulted from a periodic impairment analysis with respect to the private-label mortgage-backed securities portfolio.
