OPTIMUMBANK HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
(1) General. OptimumBank Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) is a one-bank holding company and owns 100% of OptimumBank (the “Bank”), a Florida-chartered community bank. The Company’s only business is the operation of the Bank. The Bank’s deposits are insured up to applicable limits by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). The Bank offers a variety of community banking services to individual and corporate customers through its two banking offices located in Broward County, Florida.
Basis of Presentation. In the opinion of 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, 2022, and the results of operations and cash flows for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

(1) General, Continued.
Comprehensive (Loss) Income. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles generally requires that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net earnings. Although certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale debt securities, are reported as a separate component of the equity section of the condensed consolidated balance sheets, such items along with net earnings, are components of comprehensive (loss) income.
Accumulated other comprehensive loss consists of the following (in thousands):
| September 30, | December 31, | |||||||
| 2022 | 2021 | |||||||
| Unrealized loss on debt securities available for sale | $ | (7,805 | ) | $ | (816 | ) | ||
| Unamortized portion of unrealized loss related to debt securities available for sale transferred to securities held-to-maturity | (22 | ) | (34 | ) | ||||
| Income tax benefit | 1,986 | 215 | ||||||
| Accumulated other comprehensive loss | $ | (5,841 | ) | $ | (635 | ) | ||
Income Taxes.
During the fourth quarter of 2021 the Company assessed its earnings history and trend over the past year and its estimate of future earnings, and the Company determined that it was more likely than not that the deferred tax assets would be realized in the near term. Accordingly, in the fourth quarter of 2021, the valuation allowance in the amount of $4 million that had been previously recorded against the net deferred tax asset for the amount not expected to be realized in the future was fully reversed. Therefore, there was no provision for income taxes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021.
Reclassifications. Certain amounts have been reclassified to allow for consistent presentation for the periods presented.
Recent Pronouncements.
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13 Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326). The ASU improves financial reporting by requiring timelier recording of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments held by the Company. The ASU requires the Company to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Many of the loss estimation techniques applied today will still be permitted, although the inputs to those techniques will change to reflect the full amount of expected credit losses. The Company will continue to use judgment to determine which loss estimation method is appropriate for their circumstances. The ASU requires enhanced disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of an organization’s portfolio. These disclosures include qualitative and quantitative requirements that provide additional information about the amounts recorded in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Additionally, the ASU amends the accounting for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. The ASU will take effect for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company has executed an implementation plan through adoption date, implemented a software solution to assist with the estimation process, and has completed a data analysis. The Company expects that the impact of this ASU will not have a material effect to the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Management evaluates debt securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluation. Consideration is given to (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospectus of the issuer, and (3) the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.
At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the unrealized losses on forty-two and twenty-nine debt securities, respectively, were caused by market conditions. It is expected that the debt securities will 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. |

(3) Loans, Continued. The Company has divided the loan portfolio into six portfolio segments, each with different risk characteristics and methodologies for assessing risk. All loans are underwritten based upon standards set forth in the policies approved by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”). The Company identifies the portfolio segments as follows:
Residential Real Estate, Multi-Family Real Estate, Commercial Real Estate, Land and Construction. Residential real estate loans are underwritten based on repayment capacity and source, value of the underlying property, credit history and stability. The Company offers first and second one-to-four family mortgage loans; the collateral for these loans is generally the clients’ owner-occupied residences. Although these types of loans present lower levels of risk than commercial real estate loans, risks do still exist because of possible fluctuations in the value of the real estate collateral securing the loan, as well as changes in the borrowers’ financial condition. Multi-family and commercial real estate loans are secured by the subject property. Underwriting standards include, among other factors, loan to value limits, cash flow coverage and general creditworthiness of the obligors. Construction loans to borrowers 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, cost estimates and pre-construction sales information. The Company also makes loans on occasion for the purchase of land for future development by the borrower. Land loans are extended for 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. Commercial business loans and lines of credit consist of loans to small- and medium-sized companies in the Company’s market area. Commercial loans are generally used for working capital purposes or for acquiring equipment, inventory or furniture. Primarily all of the Company’s commercial loans are secured loans, along with a small amount of unsecured loans. The Company’s underwriting analysis consists of a review of the financial statements of the borrower, the lending history of the borrower, the debt service capabilities of the borrower, the projected cash flows of the business, the value of the collateral, if any, and whether the loan is guaranteed by the principals of the borrower. These loans are generally secured by accounts receivable, inventory and equipment. Commercial loans are typically made on the basis of the borrower’s ability to make repayment from the cash flow of the borrower’s business, which makes them of higher risk than residential loans and the collateral securing loans may be difficult to appraise and may fluctuate in value based on the success of the business. The Company seeks to minimize these risks through its underwriting standards.
Consumer. 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. Risk is mitigated by the fact that the loans are of smaller individual amounts.

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 – 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 net 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. Included in this category are loans that are current on their payments, but the Bank is unable to document the source of repayment. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. | |
| Doubtful – a loan classified as Doubtful has all the weaknesses inherent in one classified as 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. 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 charges off any loan classified as Doubtful. | |
| 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 effected in the future. The Company fully charges off any loan classified as Loss. |

(8) Off- Balance Sheet Financial Instruments. The Company is 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, unused lines of credit, and standby letters of credit and may involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest-rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The contract amounts of these instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Company has in these financial instruments.
The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit 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. Because some of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company, upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty.
Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit to customers is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The Bank generally holds collateral supporting those commitments. Standby letters of credit generally have expiration dates within one year.
Commitments to extend credit, unused lines of credit, and standby letters of credit typically result in loans with a market interest rate when funded. A summary of the contractual amounts of the Company’s financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk at September 30, 2022 follows (in thousands):
| Commitments to extend credit | $ | 20,335 | ||
| Unused lines of credit | $ | 19,962 | ||
| Standby letters of credit | $ | 4,313 |
(9) Regulatory Matters. The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the bank regulatory agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company and Bank’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of its assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.

(10) Preferred Stock
During the first quarter of 2022, the Company issued shares of Series B-2 Participating Preferred Stock to an unrelated party at a cash price of $ per share, or an aggregate of $6,500,000.
OptimumBank Holding Inc. is authorized to issue shares of Series B Participating Preferred Stock at a price of $ per share. The Preferred Stock has no par value. Except in the event of liquidation, if the Company declares or pays a dividend or distribution on the common stock, the Company shall simultaneously declare and pay a dividend on the Series B Preferred on a pro rata basis with the common stock determined on an as-converted basis assuming all shares of Series B Preferred Stock had been converted immediately prior to the record date of the applicable dividend.
The Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of common stock, at the option of the Company, subject to the prior fulfilment of the following conditions: (i) such conversion shall have been approved by the holders of a majority of the outstanding common stock of the Company; and (ii) such conversion shall not result in any holder of the Series B Preferred Stock and any persons with whom the holder may be acting in concert, becoming beneficial owners of more than % of the outstanding shares of the common stock. The number of shares issuable upon conversion is subject to adjustment based on the terms of the applicable Certificate of Designation for the Series B Preferred (the “Certificate of Designation”). The Series B Preferred has preferential liquidation rights over common stockholders and holders of junior securities. The liquidation price is the greater of $25,000 per share of Series B Preferred or such amount per share of Series B Preferred that would have been payable had all shares of the Series B Preferred had been converted into common stock pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Designation immediately prior to a liquidation.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
Financial Condition at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021
Overview
The Company’s total assets increased by approximately $192.9 million to $544.8 million at September 30, 2022, from $351.9 million at December 31, 2021, primarily due to increases in commercial real estate loans, and cash and cash equivalents. The growth in assets was attributable to the success of the Company’s efforts to increase loans and deposits from new customers. Net loans grew by $184.5 million. Deposits grew by approximately $129.7 million to $422.2 million at September 30, 2022, from $292.5 million at December 31, 2021. The Company increased the Federal Home Loan Bank advances by $50 million to $68 million at September 30, 2022. Total stockholders’ equity increased by approximately $12.7 million to $51.2 million at September 30, 2022, from $38.5 million at December 31, 2021, primarily due to proceeds from the sale of preferred stock, common stock and net earnings. The increase in stockholders’ equity was partially offset by the increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss of approximately $5.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.
The following table shows selected information for the periods ended or at the dates indicated:
| Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 | Year Ended December 31, 2021 | |||||||
| Average equity as a percentage of average assets | 10.5 | % | 9.4 | % | ||||
| Equity to total assets at end of period | 9.4 | % | 11.0 | % | ||||
| Return on average assets (1) | 0.8 | % | 2.2 | % | ||||
| Return on average equity (1) | 7.3 | % | 23.3 | % | ||||
| Noninterest expenses to average assets (1) | 2.3 | % | 2.4 | % | ||||
(1) Annualized for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.
Liquidity and Sources of Funds
The Company’s sources of funds include customer deposits, advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (“FHLB”), principal repayments and sales of debt securities, loan repayments, the use of Federal Funds markets, net earnings, and loans taken out at the Federal Reserve Bank discount window.
Deposits are our primary source of funds. In order to increase its core deposits, the Company has priced its deposit rates competitively. The Company will adjust rates on its deposits to attract or retain deposits as needed.
The Company increased deposits by approximately $129.7 million during the nine-month period ending September 30, 2022. The proceeds were used to originate new loans.
In addition to obtaining funds from depositors, the Company may borrow funds from other financial institutions. At September 30, 2022, the Company had outstanding borrowings of $68 million, against its $116.1 million in established borrowing capacity with the FHLB. The Company’s borrowing facility is subject to collateral and stock ownership requirements, as well as prior FHLB consent to each advance. At September 30, 2022, the Company also had available lines of credit amounting to $24.5 million with six correspondent banks to purchase federal funds. Disbursements on the lines of credit are subject to the approval of the correspondent banks. We measure and monitor our liquidity daily and believe our liquidity sources are adequate to meet our operating needs.

Net earnings. Net earnings for the three months ended September 30, 2022, were $673,000 or $0.11 per basic and diluted share compared to net earnings of $917,000 or $0.21 per basic and diluted share for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in net earnings during the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to three months ended September 30, 2021 is primarily attributed to increases in the, provision for loan losses, income taxes, and noninterest expenses, which were partially offset by an increase in net interest income.
Interest Income. Interest income increased $2.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021 due primarily to growth in the loan portfolio.
Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $981,000 to $1,189,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the prior period, primarily due to increases in Federal Home Loan Bank advances and, interest bearing deposit rates and changes in the composition of deposits.
Provision for Loan Losses. Provision for loan losses was $1,374,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to a $582,000 credit for loan losses for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The provision for loan losses is charged to earnings as losses are estimated to have occurred in order to bring the total loan allowance for loan losses to a level deemed appropriate by management to absorb losses inherent in the portfolio at September 30, 2022. 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 $5.2 million or 1.19% of loans outstanding at September 30, 2022, compared to $3.1 million or 1.22% of loans outstanding at December 31, 2021. The increase in the provision for loan losses during the third quarter of 2022 was primarily due to loan volume growth and the evaluation of the other factors noted above.
Noninterest Income. Total noninterest income increased to $692,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2022, from $423,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2021, due to increased wire transfer and ACH fees during the three month period ended September 30, 2022.
Noninterest Expenses. Total noninterest expenses increased to $2,720,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $1,689,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2021 primarily due to an increase in salaries and employee benefits and data processing and other operating cost.

The increase in net earnings during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to nine months ended September 30, 2021 is primarily attributed to increases in noninterest income and net interest income, which were partially offset by the increase in noninterest expense.
Interest Income. Interest income increased $5,754,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021 due primarily to growth in the loan portfolio and increases in interest rates on the Company’s loans.
Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $976,000 to $1,697,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the prior period primarily due to an increase in Federal Home loan Bank advances and interest bearing deposit rates.
Provision for Loan Losses. Provision for loan losses amounted to $2,757,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $955,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The provision for loan losses is charged to earnings as losses are estimated to have occurred in order to bring the total loan allowance for loan losses to a level deemed appropriate by management to absorb losses inherent in the portfolio at September 30, 2022.
