Basis
of Presentation
|
The
accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared in
accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q and accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America; therefore, they do not include all
disclosures necessary for a complete presentation of financial condition,
results of operations, and cash flows. Such statements are unaudited
but, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which are of a
normal recurring nature and necessary for a fair presentation of results for the
selected interim periods. Users of financial information produced for
interim periods are encouraged to refer to the footnotes contained in the
audited financial statements appearing in Security Federal Corporation’s 2008
Annual Report to Shareholders when reviewing interim financial
statements. The results of operations for the six-month period ended
September 30, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the entire fiscal year. This Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements with respect to the financial
condition, results of operations, and business of the Company. These
forward-looking statements involve certain risks and
uncertainties. Factors that may cause actual results to differ
materially from those anticipated by such forward-looking statements include,
but are not limited to, changes in interest rates, the demand for loans, the
regulatory environment, general economic conditions and inflation, and the
securities markets. Management cautions readers of this Form 10-Q not
to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements contained
herein.

Principles
of Consolidation
|
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Security
Federal Corporation (the “Company”) and its wholly owned subsidiary, Security
Federal Bank (the “Bank”) and the Bank’s wholly owned subsidiaries, Security
Federal Insurance, Inc. (“SFINS”), Security Federal Investments, Inc. (“SFINV”),
Security Federal Trust Inc. (“SFT”), and Security Financial Services Corporation
(“SFSC”). Security Federal Corporation has a wholly owned subsidiary,
Security Federal Statutory Trust (the “Trust”), which issued and sold fixed and
floating rate capital securities of the Trust. However, under current
accounting guidance, the Trust is not consolidated in the Company’s financial
statements. The Bank is primarily engaged in the business of
accepting savings and demand deposits and originating mortgage loans and other
loans to individuals and small businesses for various personal and commercial
purposes. SFINS, SFINV, and SFT were formed during fiscal 2002 and
began operating during the December 2001 quarter. SFINS is an
insurance agency offering auto, business, health, and home
insurance. SFINS has a wholly owned subsidiary, Collier Jennings
Financial Corporation which has as subsidiaries Collier Jennings Inc., The Auto
Insurance Store Inc., and Security Federal Premium Pay Plans Inc (the
“Collier-Jennings Companies”). SFINV engages primarily in investment brokerage
services. SFT offers trust, financial planning and financial
management services. SFSC is currently an inactive subsidiary.
3. Critical
Accounting Policies
The
Company has adopted various accounting policies, which govern the application of
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States in the preparation
of the financial statements. The Company’s significant accounting
policies are described in the footnotes to the audited consolidated financial
statements at March 31, 2008 included in it’s 2008 Annual Report to
Stockholders, which was filed as an exhibit to the Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended March 31, 2008. Certain accounting policies
involve significant judgments and assumptions by management, which have a
material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and
liabilities. The Company considers these accounting policies to be
critical accounting policies. The judgments and assumptions the
Company uses are based on historical experience and other factors, which the
Company believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Because of
the nature of the judgments and assumptions we make, actual results could differ
from these judgments and estimates which could have a material impact on the
carrying values of assets and liabilities and the results of
operations.
The
Company believes the allowance for loan losses is a critical accounting policy
that requires the most significant judgments and estimates used in preparation
of the consolidated financial statements. The Company provides for
loan losses using the allowance method. Accordingly, all loan losses
are charged to the related allowance and all recoveries are credited to the
allowance for loan losses. Additions to the allowance for loan losses
are provided by charges to operations based on various factors, which, in
management’s judgment, deserve current recognition in estimating possible
losses. Such factors considered by management include the fair value
of the underlying collateral; stated guarantees by the borrow, if applicable,
the borrower’s ability to repay from other economic resources, growth and
composition of the loan portfolios, the relationship of the allowance for loan
losses to the outstanding loans, loss experience, delinquency trends, and
general economic conditions. Management evaluates the carrying value
of the loans periodically and the allowance is adjusted
accordingly.

Critical
Accounting Policies, Continued
|
While
management uses the best information available to make evaluations, future
adjustments may be necessary if economic conditions differ substantially from
the assumptions used in making these evaluations. Allowance for loan
losses are subject to periodic evaluations by various authorities and may be
subject to adjustments based upon the information that is available at the time
of their examination.
The
Company values impaired loans at the loan’s fair value if it is probable that
the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the terms of
the loan agreement at the present value of expected cash flows, the market price
of the loan, if available, or the value of the underlying
collateral. Expected cash flows are required to be discounted at the
loan’s effective interest rate. When the ultimate collectibility of
an impaired loan’s principal is in doubt, wholly or partially, all cash receipts
are applied to principal. When this doubt does not exist, cash
receipts are applied under the contractual terms of the loan agreement first to
interest and then to principal. Once the recorded principal balance
has been reduced to zero, future cash receipts are applied to interest income to
the extent that any interest has been foregone. Further cash receipts
are recorded as recoveries of any amounts previously charged off.

Earnings
Per Share
|
The
Company calculates earnings per share (“EPS”) in accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 128, “Earnings Per
Share.” SFAS No. 128 specifies the computation, presentation and
disclosure requirements for EPS for entities with publicly held common stock or
potential common stock such as options, warrants, convertible securities or
contingent stock agreements if those securities trade in a public
market.
This
standard specifies computation and presentation requirements for both basic EPS
and, for entities with complex capital structures, diluted EPS. Basic
EPS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is similar to the computation of
basic EPS except that the denominator is increased to include the number of
additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the dilutive
potential common shares had been issued. The dilutive effect of
options outstanding under the Company’s stock option plan is reflected in
diluted earnings per share by application of the treasury stock method. The
reverse treasury stock method is used to determine the dilutive effect of the
mandatorily redeemable shares outstanding issued in conjunction with the
acquisition of the Collier-Jennings Companies
The

6. Fair
Value Measurements
Effective
April 1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”
(“SFAS 157”) which provides a framework for measuring and disclosing fair value
under generally accepted accounting principles. SFAS 157 requires disclosures
about the fair value of assets and liabilities recognized in the balance sheet
in periods subsequent to initial recognition, whether the measurements are made
on a recurring basis (for example, available-for-sale investment securities) or
on a nonrecurring basis (for example, impaired loans).
SFAS 157
defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or
paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most
advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between
market participants on the measurement date. SFAS 157 also establishes a fair
value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable
inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair
value:
Level
1
|
Quoted
prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 1
assets and liabilities include debt and equity securities and derivative
contracts that are traded in an active exchange market, as well as U.S.
Treasuries and money market funds.
|
Level
2
|
Observable
inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets
or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other
inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market
data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Level 2
assets and liabilities include debt securities with quoted prices that are
traded less frequently than exchange-traded instruments, mortgage-backed
securities, municipal bonds, corporate debt securities and derivative
contracts whose value is determined using a pricing model with inputs that
are observable in the market or can be derived principally from or
corroborated by observable market data. This category generally includes
certain derivative contracts and impaired loans.
|
Level
3
|
Unobservable
inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are
significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets
and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined
using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar
techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair
value requires significant management judgment or estimation. For example,
this category generally includes certain private equity investments,
retained residual interests in securitizations, residential mortgage
servicing rights, and highly-structured or long-term derivative
contracts.
|
Assets
and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows as of
September 30, 2008:

6. Fair
Value Measurements, Continued
The
Company is predominantly an asset based lender with real estate serving as
collateral on a substantial majority of loans. Loans which are deemed to be
impaired are primarily valued on a nonrecurring basis at the fair values of the
underlying real estate collateral. Such fair values are obtained using
independent appraisals, which the Company considers to be level 2 inputs. The
aggregate carrying amount of impaired loans at September 30, 2008 was $9.8
million.
Financial
Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Staff Position No. FAS 157-2 delays the
implementation of SFAS 157 until the first quarter of 2009 with respect to
goodwill, other intangible assets, real estate and other assets acquired through
foreclosure and other non-financial assets measured at fair value on a
nonrecurring basis.
The
Company has no assets or liabilities whose fair values are measured using level
3 inputs that require disclosure as of September 30, 2008.
7. Accounting
and Reporting Changes
The
following is a summary of recent authoritative pronouncements that could impact
the accounting, reporting, and/or disclosure of financial information by the
Company.
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations,” (“SFAS
141(R)”) which replaces SFAS 141. SFAS 141(R) establishes principles and
requirements for how an acquirer in a business combination recognizes and
measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the
liabilities assumed, and any controlling interest; recognizes and measures
goodwill acquired in the business combination or a gain from a bargain purchase;
and determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial
statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business
combination. SFAS 141(R) is effective for acquisitions by the Company taking
place on or after April 1, 2009. Early adoption is prohibited. Accordingly, the
Company is required to record and disclose business combinations following
existing accounting guidance until April 1, 2009. The Company will assess the
impact of SFAS 141(R) if and when a future acquisition occurs.
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in
Consolidated Financial Statements – an amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS 160”).
SFAS 160 establishes new accounting and reporting standards for the
noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a
subsidiary. Before this statement, limited guidance existed for reporting
noncontrolling interests (minority interest). Specifically, SFAS 160 requires
the recognition of a noncontrolling interest (minority interest) as equity in
the consolidated financials statements and separate from the parent’s equity.
The amount of net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest will be
included in consolidated net income on the face of the income statement. SFAS
160 clarifies that changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that
do not result in deconsolidation are equity transactions if the parent retains
its controlling financial interest. In addition, this statement requires that a
parent recognize gain or loss in net income when a subsidiary is deconsolidated.
Such gain or loss will be measured using the fair value of the noncontrolling
equity investment on the deconsolidation date. SFAS 160 also includes expanded
disclosure requirements regarding the interests of the parent and its
noncontrolling interests. SFAS 160 is effective for the Company on April 1,
2009. Earlier adoption is prohibited. The Company is currently
evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of SFAS 160 will have on its
financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
In March
2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities” (“SFAS 161”). SFAS 161 requires enhanced
disclosures about an entity’s derivative and hedging activities and thereby
improving the transparency of financial reporting. It is intended to
enhance the current disclosure framework in SFAS No. 133 by requiring that
objectives for using derivative instruments be disclosed in terms of underlying
risk and accounting designation. This disclosure better conveys the purpose of
derivative use in terms of the risks that the entity is intending to manage.
SFAS 161 is effective for the Company on April 1, 2009. This pronouncement does
not impact accounting measurements but will result in additional disclosures if
the Company is involved in material derivative and hedging activities at that
time.
In
February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. 140-3, “Accounting for
Transfers of Financial Assets and Repurchase Financing Transactions” (“FSP
140-3”). FSP 140-3 provides guidance on accounting for a transfer of a
financial asset and the transferor’s repurchase financing of the asset.
This FSP presumes that an initial transfer of a financial asset and a
repurchase financing are considered part of the same arrangement (linked
transaction) under SFAS No. 140.
12
Security
Federal Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited), Continued
7. Accounting
and Reporting Changes, Continued
However,
if certain criteria are met, the initial transfer and repurchase financing are
not evaluated as a linked transaction and are evaluated separately under
Statement 140. FSP 140-3 will be effective for financial statements issued
for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, and interim periods within
those fiscal years and earlier application is not permitted. Accordingly, this
FSP is effective for the Company on April 1, 2009. The Company is
currently evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of FSP 140-3 will have on
its financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
In April
2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. 142-3, “Determination of the
Useful Life of Intangible Assets” (“FSP 142-3”). This FSP amends the
factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions
used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS
No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”. The intent of this
FSP is to improve the consistency between the useful life of a recognized
intangible asset under SFAS No. 142 and the period of expected cash flows used
to measure the fair value of the asset under SFAS 141(R), “Business
Combinations,” and
other U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. This FSP is
effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years and early
adoption is prohibited. Accordingly, this FSP is effective for the
Company on April 1, 2009. The Company does not believe the adoption
of FSP 142-3 will have a material impact on its financial position, results of
operations or cash flows.
In May,
2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles,” (“SFAS 162”). SFAS 162 identifies the sources
of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in
the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are
presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in
the United States (the GAAP hierarchy). SFAS 162 will be effective 60
days following the SEC’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board’s amendments to AU Section 411, “The Meaning of Present Fairly
in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” The
FASB has stated that it does not expect SFAS 162 will result in a change in
current practice. The application of SFAS 162 will have no effect on the
Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
The FASB
issued FASB Staff Position No. APB 14-1, “Accounting for Convertible Debt
Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash
Settlement),” (“FSP APB 14-1”). The Staff Position specifies that issuers of
convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion should
separately account for the liability and equity components in a manner that will
reflect the entity’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate when interest cost is
recognized in subsequent periods. FSP APB 14-1 provides guidance for
initial and subsequent measurement as well as derecognition
provisions. The Staff Position is effective for financial statements
issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods
within those fiscal years. Early adoption is not permitted. The
Company is currently analyzing the effect, if any, the adoption of this Staff
Position will have on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or
cash flows.
In June,
2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. EITF 03-6-1, “Determining Whether
Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions are Participating
Securities,” (“FSP EITF 03-6-1”). The Staff Position provides that
unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to
dividends or dividend equivalents are participating securities and must be
included in the earnings per share computation. FSP EITF 03-6-1 is
effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those years. All prior-period
earnings per share data presented must be adjusted retrospectively. Early
application is not permitted. The adoption of this Staff Position
will have no material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of
operations or cash flows.
FSP SFAS
133-1 and FIN 45-4, “Disclosures about Credit Derivatives and Certain
Guarantees: An Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 and FASB Interpretation No.
45; and Clarification of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 161,” (“FSP
SFAS 133-1 and FIN 45-4”) was issued September 2008, effective for reporting
periods (annual or interim) ending after November 15, 2008. FSP SFAS
133-1 and FIN 45-4 amends SFAS No. 133 to require the seller of credit
derivatives to disclose the nature of the credit derivative, the maximum
potential amount of future payments, fair value of the derivative, and the
nature of any recourse provisions. Disclosures must be made for
entire hybrid instruments that have embedded credit derivatives.
The staff
position also amends FIN 45 to require disclosure of the current status of the
payment/performance risk of the credit derivative guarantee. If an
entity utilizes internal groupings as a basis for the risk, how the groupings
are determined must be disclosed as well as how the risk is
managed.
13
Security
Federal Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited), Continued
7. Accounting
and Reporting Changes, Continued
The staff
position encourages that the amendments be applied in periods earlier than the
effective date to facilitate comparisons at initial adoption. After
initial adoption, comparative disclosures are required only for subsequent
periods.
FSP SFAS
133-1 and FIN 45-4 clarifies the effective date of SFAS 161 such that required
disclosures should be provided for any reporting period (annual or quarterly
interim) beginning after November 15, 2008. The adoption of this
Staff Position will have no material effect on the Company’s financial position,
results of operations or cash flows.
The SEC’s
Office of the Chief Accountant and the staff of the FASB issued press release
2008-234 on September 30, 2008 (“Press Release”) to provide clarifications on
fair value accounting. The press release includes guidance on the use
of management’s internal assumptions and the use of “market”
quotes. It also reiterates the factors in SEC Staff Accounting
Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5M which should be considered when determining
other-than-temporary impairment: the length of time and extent to which the
market value has been less than cost; financial condition and near-term
prospects of the issuer; and the intent and ability of the holder to retain its
investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery
in market value.
On
October 10, 2008, the FASB issued FSP SFAS 157-3, “Determining the Fair Value of
a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active” (“FSP SFAS
157-3”). This FSP clarifies the application of SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value
Measurements” (see Note 6) in a market that is not active and provides an
example to illustrate key considerations in determining the fair value of a
financial asset when the market for that asset is not active. The FSP
is effective upon issuance, including prior periods for which financial
statements have not been issued. For the Company, this FSP is effective for the
quarter ended September 30, 2008.
The
Company considered the guidance in the Press Release and in FSP SFAS 157-3 when
conducting its review for other-than-temporary impairment as of September 30,
2008 and determined that it did not result in a change to its impairment
estimation techniques.
Other
accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other
standards-setting bodies are not expected to have a material impact on the
Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations
Safe
Harbor Statement
Certain
matters in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September
30, 2008 constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking
statements relate to, among others, expectations of the business environment in
which the Company operates, projections of future performance, perceived
opportunities in the market, potential future credit experience, and statements
regarding the Company’s mission and vision. These forward-looking
statements are based upon current management expectations, and may, therefore,
involve risks and uncertainties. The Company’s actual results,
performance, or achievements may differ materially from those suggested,
expressed, or implied by forward-looking statements as a result of a wide range
of factors including, but not limited to, the general business environment,
interest rates, the South Carolina real estate market, the demand for loans,
competitive conditions between banks and non-bank financial services providers,
regulatory changes, and other risks detailed in the Company’s reports filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008. Forward-looking statements
are effective only as of the date that they are made and the Company assumes no
obligation to update this information.
Comparison
Of Financial Condition At September 30, 2008 and March 31, 2008
General – Total assets
increased $65.4 million or 7.8% to $905.5 million at September 30, 2008 from
$840.0 million at March 31, 2008. The primary reason for the growth
in total assets was a $61.2 million or 11.8% increase in net loans receivable to
$579.1 million. For the six months ended September 30, 2008, the
demand for loans was funded with decreased cash and cash equivalents of $161,000
or 1.5%, decreased investments and mortgage-backed securities, held to maturity
of $9.0 million or 44.7%, increased deposits of $14.3 million or 2.4%, increased
advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) of $52.4 million or 29.4% and
an increase in other borrowed money of $805,000 or 6.3%.
Assets – The increases and
decreases in total assets were primarily concentrated in the following asset

Cash and
cash equivalents decreased $161,000 to $10.4 million at September 30, 2008 from
$10.5 million at March 31, 2008. The reason for the decrease is the
Company used cash and cash equivalents to fund loans.
Investments
and mortgage-backed securities available for sale increased $7.9 million or 3.3%
to $252.1 million at September 30, 2008 from $244.2 million at March 31,
2008. The increase in investments and mortgage-backed securities
available for sale is attributable to additional purchases of mortgage-backed
securities and investments. This is offset partially by decreases in the market
value of these securities, paydowns on mortgage-backed securities and calls and
maturities on mortgage-backed securities and investments. Investments and
mortgage-backed securities held to maturity decreased $9.0 million to $11.2
million at September 30, 2008 compared to $20.2 million at March 31, 2008. This
is a result of maturities on investments.

receivable, net increased $61.2 million or 11.8% to $579.1 million at September
30, 2008 from $517.9 million at March 31, 2008. Residential real
estate loans increased $2.4 million to $134.3 million at September 30, 2008 from
$131.9 million at March 31, 2008. Consumer loans decreased $592,000
to $67.4 million at September 30, 2008 from $66.8 million at March 31, 2008.
Commercial business and real estate loans increased $59.1 million to $392.5
million at September 30, 2008 from $333.4 million at March 31,
2008. The increase in commercial loans was attributable to the
Company’s recent expansion into the new market areas of Richland County, South
Carolina and Columbia County, Georgia. In connection with its expansion into
these areas, the Company hired additional loan originators. Loans
held for sale decreased $727,000 or 31.7% to $1.6 million at September 30, 2008
from $2.3 million at March 31, 2008.
Premises
and equipment, net increased $545,000 or 2.5% to $22.1 million at September 30,
2008 from $21.5 million at March 31, 2008. The majority of the
increase was for the relocation of the Company’s Clearwater branch office and
for renovations to the Operations Center in Aiken, South Carolina.
FHLB
stock, at cost increased $2.4 million or 25.7% to $11.9 million at September 30,
2008 from $9.5 million at March 31, 2008. The increase is
attributable to a FHLB requirement that the Bank maintain stock equal to 0.20%
of total assets at December 31, 2007 plus a transaction component, which equals
4.5% of outstanding advances (borrowings) from the FHLB of Atlanta.
Bank
Owned Life Insurance increased $1.2 million or 13.8% to $9.5 million at
September 30, 2008 from $8.3 million at March 31, 2008. The Company
purchased $972,000 in additional life insurance during the six months ended
September 30, 2008 to provide key man life insurance for additional officers and
the cash surrender value continued to increase.
Repossessed
Assets Acquired in Settlement of Loans decreased $110,000 or 14.3% to $657,000
at September 30, 2008 from $767,000 at March 31, 2008. The Company
sold two properties and foreclosed on four additional properties during the
period. At September 30, 2008 the balance in repossessed assets consisted of
nine properties: two lots within one subdivision of Aiken, South Carolina; one
lot within a subdivision of Columbia, South Carolina; a commercial building
located in Augusta, Georgia; and five single-family residences located in
Langley and North Augusta, South Carolina and Augusta, Georgia.
Other
assets increased $1.8 million or 91.6% to $3.7 million at September 30, 2008
from $1.9 million at March 31, 2008. The majority of this increase is the result
of an increase in the deferred tax asset attributable to a decrease in the
market value of available for sale securities.

Other Borrowed Money –The Bank
had $13.6 million and $12.8 million in other borrowings (non-FHLB advances) at
September 30, 2008 and March 31, 2008, respectively. These borrowings
consist of short-term repurchase agreements with certain commercial demand
deposit customers for sweep accounts and the current balance on a revolving line
of credit with another financial institution.
At
September 30, 2008 and March 31, 2008, short-term repurchase agreements were
$10.3 million and $9.8 million, respectively. The repurchase agreements
typically mature within one to three days and the interest rate paid on these
borrowings floats monthly with money market type rates. At September 30, 2008
and March 31, 2008, the interest rate paid on the repurchase agreements was
3.11% and 3.01%, respectively. The Bank had pledged as collateral for
these repurchase agreements investment securities with amortized costs and fair
values of $25.1 million and $25.2 million, respectively at September 30,
2008.
In
December 2007, the Company entered into a line of credit in the amount of $10.0
million with another financial institution. At September 30, 2008 and March 31,
2008, the balance on the line of credit was $3.3 million and $3.0 million,
respectively. The unsecured line of credit has an interest rate equal
to one month LIBOR plus 2.0% and matures on December 1, 2008.
Mandatorily Redeemable Financial
Instrument – On June 30, 2006, the Company recorded a $1.4 million
mandatorily redeemable financial instrument as a result of the acquisition of
the Collier-Jennings Companies. The shareholder of the
Collier-Jennings Companies received cash and was issued stock in the Company to
settle the acquisition. The Company will release the shares to the
shareholder of the Collier-Jennings Companies over a three-year
period. The stock is mandatorily redeemable by the shareholder of the
Collier-Jennings Companies in cumulative increments of 20% per year for a
five-year period at the greater of $26 per share or one and one-half times the
book value of the Company’s stock. At September 30, 2008, the shareholder had
not elected to redeem any of the shares.

Junior Subordinated Debentures
– On September 21, 2006, Security Federal Statutory Trust (the “Trust”),
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, issued and sold fixed and floating rate
capital securities of the trust (the “Capital Securities”), which are reported
on the consolidated balance sheet as junior subordinated debentures, generating
proceeds of $5.0 million. The Trust loaned these proceeds to the Company to use
for general corporate purposes, primarily to provide capital to the
Bank.
The
Capital Securities in the transaction accrue and pay distributions annually at a
rate per annum equal to a blended rate of 5.70% at September 30,
2008. One-half of the offering has a fixed rate of 6.88% and the
remaining half has a floating rate of three-month LIBOR plus 170 basis points,
which was 4.52% at September 30, 2008. The distribution rate payable on the
Capital Securities is cumulative and payable quarterly in arrears. The Company
has the right, subject to events of default, to defer payments of interest on
the Capital Securities for a period not to exceed 20 consecutive quarterly
periods, provided that no extension period may extend beyond the maturity date
of December 15, 2036. The Company has no current intention to exercise its right
to defer payments of interest on the Capital Securities.
The
Capital Securities mature or are mandatorily redeemable upon maturity on
December 15, 2036, and or upon earlier optional redemption as provided in the
indenture. The Company has the right to redeem the Capital Securities in whole
or in part, on or after September 15, 2011. The Company may also redeem the
capital securities prior to such dates upon occurrence of specified conditions
and the payment of a redemption premium
Equity – Shareholders’ equity
decreased $1.6 million or 3.4% to $45.9 million at September 30, 2008 from $47.5
million at March 31, 2008. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income
(Loss), net of tax, decreased $2.7 million to a loss of $298,000 during the six

The
Company’s non-performing assets have increased to $9.4 million at September 30,
2008 from $6.8 at March 31, 2008. The increase was primarily the
result of cash flow problems experienced by three local residential builders and
one commercial customer during the second and third calendar quarters of 2008,
resulting in their inability to meet the debt service requirements of the
loans.

Operations, Continued
The
Company classified $1.6 million in real estate construction loans associated
with three builders as non-performing. Of this amount, $182,000 relates to a
developed one- to four-family residential lot in North Augusta, South Carolina
and $1.4 million relates to three one- to four-family residential houses in
varying stages of completion (i.e., developed lots to completed homes) located
in North Augusta and Lexington, South Carolina and Evans, Georgia. In addition,
the Company classified a $1.0 million commercial line of credit used to purchase
investment property located in a historic area in Aiken, South Carolina when the
borrower experienced difficulty selling the property as intended.
The
cumulative interest not accrued during the quarter relating to all
non-performing loans totaled $154,000, while the total for the six months ended
September 30, 2008 was $253,000. Subsequent to September 30, 2008, the Company
recovered the entire amount of principal and interest associated with the
commercial line of credit mentioned above. We intend to work with our builders
and other borrowers to reach acceptable payment plans while protecting our
interests in the existing collateral. In the event an acceptable
arrangement cannot be reached, we may have to acquire these properties through
foreclosure or other means and subsequently sell, develop, or liquidate
them.
Recent
Developments
In
response to financial conditions affecting the banking system and financial
markets and the potential threats to the solvency of investment banks and other
financial institutions, the United States government has taken unprecedented
actions. On October 3, 2008, President Bush signed into law the Emergency
Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (the “EESA”). Pursuant to the EESA, the U.S.
Treasury will have the authority to, among other things, purchase mortgages,
mortgage-backed securities, and other financial instruments from financial
institutions for the purpose of stabilizing and providing liquidity to the U.S.
financial markets. On October 14, 2008, the U.S. Department of Treasury
announced the Capital Purchase Program under the EESA, pursuant to which the
Treasury intends to make senior preferred stock investments in participating
financial institutions that will qualify as Tier I capital. Based on our
risk-weighted assets as of June 30, 2008, we may be eligible to issue up to
$22.5 million in new senior preferred stock under the program. We
are evaluating whether to participate in the Capital Purchase Program.
Regardless of our participation, governmental intervention and new regulations
under these programs could materially and adversely affect our business,
financial condition and results of operations.
COMPARISON OF THE RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2008 AND
2007
Net Income - Net income
decreased $343,000 or 30.4% to $785,000 for the three months ended September 30,
2008 compared to $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30,
2007. The decrease in net income is primarily the result of a
decrease in net interest margin, the Company’s decision to increase the
provision for loan losses as a result of the weakening economy, increases in its
nonperforming loans and an increase in general and administrative expenses
attributable to costs associated with the Company’s recent expansion into two
new market areas. These factors were offset slightly by an increase in
non-interest income.
Net Interest Income - Net
interest income increased $303,000 or 5.9% to $5.5 million during the three
months ended September 30, 2008, compared to $5.2 million for the same period in
2007, as a result of a decrease in interest expense offset in part by a decrease
in interest income. Average interest earning assets increased $101.1
million to $841.5 million while average interest-bearing liabilities increased
$107.0 million to $800.4 million. The interest rate spread decreased
eight basis points to 2.43% during the three months ended September 30, 2008
compared to 2.51% for the same period in 2007.
The
precipitous decline in interest rates in recent quarters continued to negatively
impact the Bank’s interest rate margin during the quarter ended September 30,
2008. This significant decrease in addition to the Bank’s efforts to maintain
competitive deposit rates within its primary market area resulted in a 19 basis
point decrease in net interest margin to 2.60% for the quarter ended September
30, 2008 compared to 2.79% for the comparable period in the previous
year.
Interest Income - Total
interest income decreased $302,000 or 2.4% to $12.3 million during the three
months ended September 30, 2008 from $12.6 million for the same period in
2007. Total interest income on loans decreased $475,000 or 5.0% to
$8.9 million during the three months ended September 30, 2008 as a result of the
yield in the loan portfolio decreasing 148 basis points offset by the average
loan portfolio balance increasing $80.5 million. Interest income from
mortgage-backed securities increased $1.1 million or 68.3% as a result of an
increase in the average balance of the portfolio of $82.2 million and the yield
in the portfolio increasing 19 basis points. Interest income from
investment securities decreased $886,000 or 53.3% as a result of a decrease in
the yield and average balance of the investment securities
portfolio.

Interest Expense - Total
interest expense decreased $605,000 or 8.1% to $6.9 million during the three
months ended September 30, 2008 compared to $7.5 million for the same period
one-year earlier. The decrease in total interest expense is
attributable to decreases in interest rates paid offset slightly by an increase
in the average balances of interest-bearing liabilities. Interest
expense on deposits decreased $775,000 or 14.5% during the period. The decrease
was attributable to a 90 basis point decrease in the cost of deposits offset by
an increase in average interest bearing deposits of $45.3 million when compared
to the average balance in the three months ended September 30,
2007. Interest expense on advances and other borrowings increased
$187,000 or 9.1% as the cost of debt outstanding decreased 84 basis points
during the 2008 quarter ended September 30, 2008 compared to the same quarter in
2007. Average total borrowings outstanding increased $61.7 million
during the same period. Interest expense on junior subordinated
debentures was $75,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2008 compared to
$92,000 for the same period one year ago. The average balance of
junior subordinated debentures remained the same during both
periods.

Provision for Loan Losses -
The amount of the provision is determined by management’s on-going monthly
analysis of the loan portfolio. Management uses multiple methods to
measure the estimate of the adequacy of the allowance for loan
losses. These methods incorporate percentage of classified loans,
five-year averages of historical loan losses in each loan category and current
economic trends, and the assignment of percentage targets of reserves in each
loan category. The Company considers subjective factors such as
changes in local and national economic conditions, industry trends, the
composition and volume of the loan portfolio, credit concentrations, lending
policies, and the experience and ability of the staff and Board of
Directors.
Problems
associated with deteriorating asset quality, the sub prime lending and credit
crisis, and the overall volatility in the financial markets continued to plague
the industry during the quarter. Although the Company did not participate in sub
prime lending, it was indirectly impacted by these events and the general
condition of the national and local economies. The Bank’s provision
for loan losses was $275,000 and $150,000 during the three months ended
September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The $125,000 increase reflects the
Company’s concern for deteriorating economic conditions in the local economy
coupled with an increase in non-performing assets within its loan
portfolio.
The
following table details selected activity associated with the allowance for loan
losses for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007:

than 2% of gross loans at September 30, 2008 and March 31, 2008, respectively.
The Bank also maintained relatively low and stable trends related to net
charge-offs. Annualized net charge-offs as a percent of gross loans were 0.18%
for the three months ended September 30, 2008 compared to 0.02% for the year
ended March 31, 2008 and 0.01% for the six months ended September 30, 2007.
Management of the Bank continues to be concerned about current market conditions
and closely monitors the loan portfolio on an ongoing basis to proactively

Gain on
sale of investments was $25,035 during the three months ended September 30, 2008
compared to no gain in the same period one year earlier. The gain resulted from
the sale of four investments during the period. No securities were sold during
the same quarter of the previous year. Gain on sale of loans increased $4,000 to
$109,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2008 when compared to the
same period one year ago. Service fees on deposit accounts decreased $47,000 to
$276,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2008 compared to the same quarter
in 2007. Income from cash value of life insurance was $93,000 for the three
months ended September 30, 2008 compared to $87,000 during the same period one
year ago. This $5,600 increase is the result of additional purchases
of life insurance and an increase in the cash surrender value of the current
policies.
Commissions
from insurance and other agency income increased $40,000 to $240,000 during the
three months ended September 30, 2008 when compared to the same period one year
ago as a result of the growth and expansion of the Bank’s insurance subsidiary.
Trust income decreased $35,000 to $105,000 during the three months ended
September 30, 2008 compared to $140,000 for the same period in the prior year as
a result of a decrease in market values of the underlying trust accounts. The
Bank earns trust fees as a percentage of the market value of each trust account.
The market value of these accounts decreased approximately $2.7 million for the
quarter ended September 30, 2008 when compared to the same quarter in the prior
year as a result of a general decline in economic conditions in the market
place. Other miscellaneous income including credit life insurance commissions,
safe deposit rental income, annuity and stock brokerage commissions, trust fees,
and other miscellaneous fees, increased $19,000 to $212,000 during the three
months ended September 30, 2008 compared to the same period one year

Salary
and employee benefits increased $204,000 to $2.8 million for the three months
ended September 30, 2008 from $2.6 million for the same period one year ago.
Occupancy increased 10.7% to $493,000 for the three months ended September 30,
2008 from $446,000 for the same period one year ago. The majority of the
increases in salary and employee benefits and occupancy is the result of hiring
additional staff to handle the Company’s growth including expansion into the two
new market areas of Richland County, South Carolina and Columbia County,
Georgia. Depreciation and maintenance expense increased $78,000 or 23.1% to
$415,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2008 from $337,000 for the
same period one year ago primarily as a result of the Company’s recent expansion
and additional locations.
FDIC
insurance premiums increased $177,000 or 1,188.1% to $192,000 for the three
month period ended September 30, 2008 when compared to the same period a year
ago. Previously, the Bank was benefiting from a one-time credit assessment made
available by the Federal Deposit Insurance Reform Act of 2005. The credit
assessment amount was applied to reduce the Bank’s quarterly deposit insurance
assessments. The Bank exhausted this credit during the quarter ended June 30,
2008. Advertising expense increased $20,000 to $107,000 for the three months
ended September 30, 2008 from $87,000 for the same period one year
ago. The increase is attributable to the Company using more print
media advertising to attract deposits and promote the insurance
subsidiary.
Mandatorily
redeemable financial instrument valuation expense was $60,000 for the three
months ended September 30, 2008 compared to no expense for the same period one
year earlier. Based on its terms, the mandatorily redeemable financial
instrument is redeemable at the greater of $26 per share or one and a half times
the book value of the Company which equated to $27.23 at September 30, 2008. The
Company recorded a valuation expense to properly reflect the fair value of the
instrument at September 30, 2008 based on the book value.
Other
general and administrative expenses increased $108,000 or 12.8% to $955,000 for
the three months ended September 30, 2008 when compared to the same period one
year ago.
Provision For Income Taxes –
Provision for income taxes decreased $162,000 or 29.5% to $388,000 for
the three months ended September 30, 2008 from $550,000 for the same period one
year ago. Income before income taxes was $1.2 million for the three
months ended September 30, 2008 compared to $1.7 million for the three months
ended September 30, 2007. The Company’s combined federal and state
effective income tax rate for the current quarter was 33.1% compared to 32.8%
for the same quarter one year ago.
COMPARISON OF THE RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2008 AND
2007
Net Income - Net income
decreased $637,000 or 28.6% to $1.6 million for the six months ended September
30, 2008 compared to $2.2 million for the six months ended September 30,
2007. The decrease in net income is primarily the result of
compression of the net interest margin in conjunction with the Company’s
decision to increase the provision for loan losses and an increase in general
and administrative expenses attributable to costs associated with the Company’s
recent expansion into two new market areas. These factors were offset slightly
by an increase in non-interest income.
Net Interest Income - The
Federal Reserve’s precipitous decline in interest rates in recent quarters
continued to negatively impact the Bank’s interest rate margin during the period
ended September 30, 2008. This significant decrease in addition to the Bank’s
efforts to maintain competitive deposit rates within its primary market area
resulted in a 22 basis point decrease in net interest margin to 2.58% for the
six months ended September 30, 2008 compared to 2.80% for the comparable period
in the previous year.
Despite

or 4.4% to $10.6 million during the six months ended September 30, 2008,
compared to $10.1 million for the same period in 2007. The increase is a result
of a decrease in interest expense offset in part by a decrease in interest
income. Average interest earning assets increased $94.3 million to
$819.7 million while average interest-bearing liabilities increased $99.5
million to $777.9 million. The interest rate spread was 2.41% and

2007. Total interest income on loans decreased $725,000 or 4.0% to
$17.5 million during the six months ended September 30, 2008 as a result of the
yield in the loan portfolio decreasing 144 basis points offset in part by the
average loan portfolio balance increasing $80.4 million. Interest
income from mortgage-backed securities increased $1.9 million or 61.9% to $5.0
million as a result of a 20 basis point increase in the yield in the
mortgage-backed portfolio and an increase in the average balance of the
portfolio of $73.8 million. Interest income from investment
securities decreased $1.6 million or 48.2% to $1.7 million as a
result of a decrease in the yield and average balance of the investment

interest expense decreased $827,000 or 5.7% to $13.6 million during the six
months ended September 30, 2008 compared to $14.4 million for the same period
one year earlier. The decrease in total interest expense is
attributable to the decreases in short-term interest rates paid, despite an
increase in the amount of interest-bearing deposits, and
borrowings. Interest expense on deposits decreased $1.1 million or
10.6% during the period as average interest bearing deposits grew $52.5 million
compared to the average balance in the six months ended September 30, 2007, and
the cost of deposits decreased 79 basis points. Interest expense on advances and
other borrowings increased $300,000 or 7.6% as the cost of debt outstanding
decreased 67 basis points during the six months ended September 30, 2008
compared to the same period in 2007 while average borrowings outstanding
increased approximately $47.0 million. Interest expense on junior

Provision for Loan Losses -
The amount of the provision is determined by management’s on-going
monthly analysis of the loan portfolio. Management uses multiple
methods to measure the estimate of the adequacy of the allowance for loan
losses. These methods incorporate percentage of classified loans,
five-year averages of historical loan losses in each loan category and current
economic trends, and the assignment of percentage targets of reserves in each
loan category. The Company considers subjective factors such as
changes in local and national economic conditions, industry trends, the
composition and volume of the loan portfolio, credit concentrations, lending
policies, and the experience and ability of the staff and Board of
Directors.
Problems
associated with deteriorating asset quality, the sub prime lending and credit
crisis, and the overall volatility in the financial markets continued to plague
the industry during the period. Although the Company did not participate in sub
prime lending, it was indirectly impacted by these events and the general
condition of the national and local economies. Additions to the
allowance for loan losses were $500,000 for the six months ended September 30,
2008 compared to $300,000 for the same period in the prior year. This increase
reflects the Company’s concern for deteriorating economic conditions in the
local economy coupled with an increase in non-performing assets within its loan
portfolio.

losses for the six months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007:

than 2% of gross loans at September 30, 2008 and March 31, 2008, respectively.
The Bank also maintained relatively low and stable trends related to net
charge-offs. Annualized net charge-offs as a percent of gross loans were 0.10%
for the six months ended September 30, 2008 compared to 0.02% for the year ended
March 31, 2008 and 0.01% for the six months ended September 30, 2007. Management
of the Bank continues to be concerned about current market conditions and
closely monitors the loan portfolio on an ongoing basis to proactively identify
any potential issues.

Gain on
sale of investments was $126,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2008
compared to no gain in the comparable period in the prior year as a result of
the sale of eleven securities. Gain on sale of loans decreased $54,000 to
$228,000 during the six months ended September 30, 2008 when compared to the
same period one year ago. This decrease is attributable to the decrease
in the origination and sale of fixed rate residential mortgage loans that is the
result of the current economic environment. Service fees on deposit accounts
decreased $93,000 to $557,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2008
compared to the same period in 2007. Commissions from insurance agency and other
agency income increased $81,000 during the six months ended September 30, 2008
when compared to the same period one year ago. This increase is a result of the
growth and expansion of the Bank’s insurance subsidiary. Trust income
decreased $29,000 to $210,000 during the six months ended September 30, 2008
compared to $239,000 for the same period in the prior year as a result of a
decrease in market values of the underlying trust accounts. The Bank earns trust
fees as a percentage of the market value of each trust account. The market value
of these accounts decreased approximately $2.7 million for the quarter ended
September 30, 2008 when compared to the same quarter in the prior year as a
result of a general decline in economic conditions in the market
place.
Other
miscellaneous income including credit life insurance commissions, safe deposit
rental income, annuity and stock brokerage commissions, trust fees, and other
miscellaneous fees, increased $11,000 to $426,000 during the six months ended
September 30, 2008 compared to the same period one year ago.
General and Administrative

Salary
and employee benefits increased $418,000 to $5.6 million for the six months

ago. Occupancy increased $123,000 or 14.1% to $991,000 for the six
month period ended September 30, 2008 when compared to the same period one year
ago. The majority of the increases in salary and employee benefits and occupancy
are the result of hiring additional staff to handle the Company’s growth
including expansion into the two new market areas of Richland County, South
Carolina and Columbia County, Georgia. Depreciation and maintenance expense
increased $185,000 or 28.2% to $842,000 for the six months ended September 30,
2008 from $657,000 for the same period one year ago primarily as a result of the
Company’s recent expansion and additional locations.
Advertising
expense increased $58,000 to $248,000 for the six months ended September 30,
2008 from $189,000 for the same period one year ago. The increase is
attributable to the Company using more print media advertising to attract
deposits and promote the Bank’s insurance subsidiary. FDIC insurance premiums
increased $317,000 or 1,050.3% to $347,000 for the six month period ended
September 30, 2008 when compared to the same period a year ago. Previously, the
Bank was benefiting from a one-time credit assessment made available by the
Federal Deposit Insurance Reform Act of 2005. The credit assessment amount was
applied to reduce the Bank’s quarterly deposit insurance assessments. The Bank
exhausted this credit during the quarter ended June 30, 2008.
Mandatorily
redeemable financial instrument valuation expense was $60,000 for the six months
ended September 30, 2008 compared to no expense for the same period one year
earlier. Based on its terms, the mandatorily redeemable financial instrument is
redeemable at the greater of $26 per share or one and a half times the book
value of the Company which equated to $27.23 at September 30, 2008. The Company
recorded a valuation expense to properly reflect the fair value of the
instrument at September 30, 2008 based on the book value.
Provision For Income Taxes –
Provision for income taxes decreased $306,000 or 28.1% to $785,000 for

months ended September 30, 2008 compared to $3.3 million for the six months
ended September 30, 2007. The Company’s combined federal and state
effective income tax rate for the six month ended September 30, 2008 was 33.1%

Liquidity
Commitments, Capital Resources, and Impact of Inflation and Changing
Prices
Liquidity – The Company
actively analyzes and manages the Bank’s liquidity with the objective of
maintaining an adequate level of liquidity and to ensure the availability of
sufficient cash flows to support loan growth, fund deposit withdrawals, fund
operations, and satisfy other financial commitments. See the
“Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows” contained in Item 1 – Financial
Statements, herein.
The
primary sources of funds are customer deposits, loan repayments, loan sales,
maturing investment securities, and advances from the FHLB. The
sources of funds, together with retained earnings and equity, are used to make
loans, acquire investment securities and other assets, and fund continuing
operations. While maturities and the scheduled amortization of loans
are a predictable source of funds, deposit flows and mortgage repayments are
greatly influenced by the level of interest rates, economic conditions, and
competition. Management believes that the Company’s current liquidity
position and its forecasted operating results are sufficient to fund all of its
existing commitments.
During
the six months ended September 30, 2008 loan disbursements exceeded loan
repayments resulting in a $61.2 million or 11.8% increase in total net loans
receivable. During the six months ended September 30, 2008, deposits
increased $14.3 million, the Bank drew $300,000 on a line of credit with another
financial institution and FHLB advances increased $52.4 million. The Bank had
$21.0 million in additional borrowing capacity at the FHLB at the end of the
period. At September 30, 2008, the Bank had $314.0 million of
certificates of deposit maturing within one year. Based on previous
experience, the Bank anticipates a significant portion of these certificates
will be renewed.
The
Company plans to continue to expand its branch network, which could cause
earnings to level off or decline for a period of time. The leveling
off or decline in earnings will be attributed to the lag that exists from the
time a branch is built to when it becomes profitable. In the next
twelve months, we anticipate investing $2.0 to $3.0 million in land, buildings,
and equipment. Within the next twenty-four months, we anticipate
investing $5.0 to $6.0 million in land, buildings, and equipment. The
anticipated costs could be affected by increased construction costs, weather
delays, and/or other uncertainties.
Off-Balance Sheet Commitments
– 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 generally include commitments
to originate mortgage, commercial and consumer loans, and involve to varying
degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount
recognized in the balance sheet. The Company’s maximum exposure to
credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the borrower is represented by the
contractual amount of those instruments. Since some commitments may
expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily
represent future cash requirements. The Company uses the same credit
policies in making commitments as it does for on-balance sheet
instruments. Collateral is not required to support
commitments.

3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Market
risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and
rates. The Company’s market risk arises principally from interest
rate risk inherent in its lending, investment, deposit and borrowing
activities. Management actively monitors and manages its interest
rate risk exposure. Although the Company manages other risks such as
credit quality and liquidity risk in the normal course of business, management
considers interest rate risk to be its most significant market risk that could
potentially have the largest material effect on the Company’s financial
condition and results of operations. Other types of market risks such
as foreign currency exchange rate risk and commodity price do not arise in the
normal course of the Company’s business activities.
The
Company’s profitability is
affected by fluctuations in the market interest rate. Management’s
goal is to maintain a reasonable balance between exposure to interest rate
fluctuations and earnings. A sudden and substantial increase or
decrease in interest rates may adversely impact the Company’s earnings to the
extent that the interest rates on interest-earning assets and interest-bearing
liabilities do not change at the same rate, to the same extent or on the same
basis. The Company monitors the impact of changes in interest rates
on its net interest income using a test that measures the impact on net interest
income and net portfolio value of an immediate change in interest rates in 100
basis point increments and by measuring the Bank’s interest sensitivity gap
(“Gap”). Net portfolio value is defined as the net present value of
assets, liabilities, and off-balance sheet contracts. Gap is the
amount of interest sensitive assets repricing or maturing over the next twelve
months compared to the amount of interest sensitive liabilities maturing or
repricing in the same time period. Recent net portfolio value reports
furnished by the OTS indicate that the Bank’s interest rate risk sensitivity has
increased slightly over the past year. The Bank has rated favorably
compared to thrift peers concerning interest rate sensitivity.
For the
six months ended September 30, 2008, the Bank's interest rate spread, defined as
the average yield on interest bearing assets less the average rate paid on
interest bearing liabilities was 2.41%. For the year ended March 31,
2008, the interest rate spread was 2.44%. The Federal Reserve’s recent interest
rate decreases resulted in lower yields on adjustable rate assets while intense
competition in the marketplace continued to affect the interest rates paid on
deposit accounts. In addition, the Bank’s liabilities tend to re-price at a more
gradual rate than its assets.

4. Controls and Procedures
(a)
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures: An evaluation of
the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a - 15(e)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Act”)) was carried out under the

Chief Financial Officer and several other members of the Company’s senior
management as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly
report. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer concluded that at September 30, 2008 the Company’s disclosure controls
and procedures 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 period specified in
the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms.
(b)
Changes in Internal Controls: In the quarter ended September 30, 2008, the

economic slowdown that has continued into 2008. Further deterioration
in economic conditions, in particular within our primary market area real estate
markets, could result in the following consequences, among others, any of which
could hurt our business materially:

business activities and credit exposure are primarily concentrated in Aiken,
Richland, and Lexington Counties in South Carolina and Columbia County
in Georgia. While we do not have any sub-prime loans, our
construction and land loan portfolios, our commercial and multifamily loan
portfolios and certain of our other loans have been affected by the downturn in
the residential real estate market. We anticipate that further
declines in the estate markets in our primary market area will hurt our
business. As of June 30, 2008, substantially all of our loan
portfolio consisted of loans secured by real estate located in Aiken, Richland,
and Lexington Counties in South Carolina and Columbia County in
Georgia. If real estate values continue to decline the collateral for
our loans will provide less security. As a result, our ability to
recover on defaulted loans by selling the underlying real estate will be
diminished, and we would be more likely to suffer losses on defaulted
loans. The events and conditions described in this risk factor could
therefore have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations
and financial condition.
·
|
We
may suffer losses in our loan portfolio despite our underwriting
practices.
|
We seek to mitigate the
risks inherent in our loan portfolio by adhering to specific underwriting
practices. Although we believe that our underwriting criteria
are appropriate for the various kinds of loans we make, we may incur losses on
loans that meet our underwriting criteria, and these losses may exceed the
amounts set aside as reserves in our allowance for loan losses.
Recent
negative developments in the financial industry and credit markets may continue
to adversely impact our financial condition and results of
operations.
Negative
developments beginning in the latter half of 2007 in the sub-prime mortgage
market and the securitization markets for such loans, together with other
factors, have resulted in uncertainty in the financial markets in general and a
related general economic downturn, which have continued in 2008.

Many
lending institutions, including us, have experienced substantial declines in the
performance of their loans, including construction and land loans, multifamily
loans, commercial loans and consumer loans. Moreover, competition
among depository institutions for deposits and quality loans has increased
significantly. In addition, the values of real estate collateral supporting many
construction and land, commercial and multifamily and other commercial loans and
home mortgages have declined and may continue to decline. Bank and holding
company stock prices have been negatively affected, as has the ability of banks
and holding companies to raise capital or borrow in the debt markets compared to
recent years. These conditions may have a material adverse effect on our
financial condition and results of operations. In addition, as a
result of the foregoing factors, there is a potential for new federal or state
laws and regulations regarding lending and funding practices and liquidity
standards, and bank regulatory agencies are expected to be very aggressive in
responding to concerns and trends identified in examinations, including the
expected issuance of formal enforcement orders. Negative developments
in the financial industry and the impact of new legislation in response to those
developments could restrict our business operations, including our ability to
originate or sell loans, and adversely impact our results of operations and
financial condition.
·
|
We
may be required to make further increases in our provisions for loan
losses and to charge off additional loans in the future, which could
adversely affect our results of
operations.
|
|
For
the quarter ended September 30, 2008 we recorded a provision for loan
losses of $275,000 compared to $150,000 for the quarter ended September
30, 2007, an increase of $125,000. We are experiencing increasing loan
delinquencies and credit losses. Generally, our non-performing
loans and assets reflect operating difficulties of individual borrowers
resulting from weakness in the local economy. In addition,
slowing housing sales have been a contributing factor to the increase in
non-performing loans as well as the increase in
delinquencies. At September 30, 2008 our total non-performing
loans had increased to $9.8 million compared to $6.8 million at September
30, 2007. If current trends in the housing and real estate
markets continue, we expect that we will continue to experience increased
delinquencies and credit losses. Moreover, if a recession
occurs we expect that it would negatively impact economic conditions in
our market areas and that we could experience significantly higher
delinquencies and credit losses. An increase in our credit
losses or our provision for loan losses would adversely affect our
financial condition and results of
operations.
|
Liquidity
risk could impair our ability to fund operations and jeopardize our financial
condition.
Liquidity
is essential to our business. An inability to raise funds through deposits,
borrowings, the sale of loans and other sources could have a substantial
negative effect on our liquidity. Our access to funding sources in amounts
adequate to finance our activities or the terms of which are acceptable to us
could be impaired by factors that affect us specifically or the financial
services industry or economy in general. Factors that could detrimentally impact
our access to liquidity sources include a decrease in the level of our business
activity as a result of a downturn in the markets in which our loans are
concentrated or adverse regulatory action against us. Our ability to borrow
could also be impaired by factors that are not specific to us, such as a
disruption in the financial markets or negative views and expectations about the
prospects for the financial services industry in light of the recent turmoil
faced by banking organizations and the continued deterioration in credit
markets.
·
|
If
external funds were not available, this could adversely impact our growth
and prospects.
|
We rely
on retail deposits, brokered deposits, and advances from the Federal Home Loan
Bank (“FHLB”) of Atlanta and other borrowings to fund our
operations. Although we have historically been able to replace
maturing deposits and advances as necessary, we might not be able to replace
such funds in the future if, among other things, our results of operations or
financial condition or the results of operations or financial condition of the
FHLB of Atlanta or market conditions were to change. In addition, if we fall
below the FDIC’s thresholds to be considered “well capitalized” we will be
unable to continue with uninterrupted access to the brokered funds
markets.
Although
we consider these sources of funds adequate for our liquidity needs, there can
be no assurance in this regard and we may be compelled or elect to seek
additional sources of financing in the future. Likewise, we may seek
additional debt in the future to achieve our long-term business objectives, in
connection with future acquisitions or for other reasons. There can
be no assurance additional borrowings, if sought, would be available to us or,
if available, would be on favorable terms. If additional financing
sources are unavailable or not available on reasonable terms, our financial
condition, results of operations and future prospects could be materially
adversely affected.

·
|
We
may elect or be compelled to seek additional capital in the future, but
that capital may not be available when it is
needed.
|
We are
required by federal and state regulatory authorities to maintain adequate levels
of capital to support our operations. In addition, we may elect to
raise additional capital to support our business or to finance acquisitions, if
any, or we may otherwise elect to raise additional capital. In that
regard, a number of financial institutions have recently raised considerable
amounts of capital as a result of a deterioration in their results of operations
and financial condition arising from the turmoil in the mortgage loan market,
deteriorating economic conditions, declines in real estate values and other
factors. Should we be required by regulatory authorities or otherwise elect to
raise additional capital, we may seek to do so through the issuance of, among
other things, our common stock or securities convertible into our common stock,
which could dilute your ownership interest in the Corporation.
Our
ability to raise additional capital, if needed, will depend on conditions in the
capital markets, economic conditions and a number of other factors, many of
which are outside our control, and on our financial performance. Accordingly, we
cannot assure you of our ability to raise additional capital if needed or on
terms acceptable to us. If we cannot raise additional capital when needed, it
may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of
operations and prospects.
Difficult
market conditions have adversely affected our industry.
We are
particularly exposed to downturns in the U.S. housing market. Dramatic declines
in the housing market over the past year, with falling home prices and
increasing foreclosures, unemployment and under-employment, have negatively
impacted the credit performance of mortgage loans and resulted in significant
write-downs of asset values by financial institutions, including
government-sponsored entities, major commercial and investment banks, and
regional financial institutions such as our Company. Reflecting
concern about the stability of the financial markets generally and the strength
of counterparties, many lenders and institutional investors have reduced or
ceased providing funding to borrowers, including to other financial
institutions. This market turmoil and tightening of credit have led to an
increased level of commercial and consumer delinquencies, lack of consumer
confidence, increased market volatility and widespread reduction of business
activity generally. The resulting economic pressure on consumers and lack of
confidence in the financial markets have adversely affected our business,
financial condition and results of operations. We do not expect that the
difficult conditions in the financial markets are likely to improve in the near
future. A worsening of these conditions would likely exacerbate the adverse
effects of these difficult market conditions on us and others in the financial
institutions industry. In particular, we may
face the following risks in connection with these events:
·
|
We
potentially face increased regulation of our industry. Compliance with
such regulation may increase our costs and limit our ability to pursue
business opportunities.
|
·
|
The
process we use to estimate losses inherent in our credit exposure requires
difficult, subjective and complex judgments, including forecasts of
economic conditions and how these economic conditions might impair the
ability of our borrowers to repay their loans. The level of
uncertainty concerning economic conditions may adversely affect the
accuracy of our estimates which may, in turn, impact the reliability of
the process.
|
·
|
Competition
in our industry could intensify as a result of the increasing
consolidation of financial services companies in connection with current
market conditions.
|
·
|
We
may be required to pay significantly higher FDIC premiums because market
developments have significantly depleted the insurance fund of the FDIC
and reduced the ratio of reserves to insured
deposits.

Part
II: Other Information, Continued
There
can be no assurance that recently enacted legislation and other measures
undertaken by the Treasury, the Federal Reserve and other governmental agencies
will help stabilize the U.S. financial system or improve the housing
market.
On
October 3, 2008, President Bush signed into law the Emergency Economic
Stabilization Act of 2008 (the “EESA”), which, among other measures, authorized
the Treasury Secretary to establish the Troubled Asset Relief Program
(“TARP”). EESA gives broad authority to Treasury to purchase, manage,
modify, sell and insure the troubled mortgage related assts that triggered the
current economic crisis as well as other “troubled assets.” EESA
includes additional provisions directed at bolstering the economy,
including:
· | Authority for the Federal Reserve to pay interest on depository institution balances; |
· | Mortgage loss mitigation and homeowner protection; |
·
|
Temporary
increase in Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance
coverage from $100,000 to $250,000 through December 31, 2009;
and
|
·
|
Authority
to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to suspend
mark-to-market accounting requirements for any issuer or class of category
of transactions.
|
Pursuant
to the TARP, the Treasury has the authority to, among other things, purchase up
to $700 billion (of which $250 billion is currently available) of mortgages,
mortgage-backed securities and certain other financial instruments from
financial institutions for the purpose of stabilizing and providing liquidity to
the U.S. financial markets. Shortly following the enactment of EESA,
the Treasury announced the creation of specific TARP programs to purchase
mortgage-backed securities and whole mortgage loans. In addition,
under the TARP, the Treasury has created a capital purchase program, pursuant to
which it proposes to provide access to capital to financial institutions through
a standardized program to acquire preferred stock (accompanied by warrants) from
eligible financial institutions that will serve as Tier 1 capital.
EESA also
contains a number of significant employee benefit and executive compensation
provisions, some of which apply to employee benefit plans generally, and others
which impose on financial institutions that participate in the TARP program
restrictions on executive compensation.
EESA
followed, and has been followed by, numerous actions by the Federal Reserve,
Congress, Treasury, the SEC and others to address the currently liquidity and
credit crisis that has followed the sub-prime meltdown that commenced in
2007. These measures include homeowner relief that encourage loan
restructuring and modification; the establishment of significant liquidity and
credit facilities for financial institutions and investment banks; the lowering
of the federal funds rate, including a 50 basis point decrease on October 8,
2008; emergency action against short selling practices; a temporary guaranty
program for money market funds; the establishment of a commercial paper funding
facility to provide back-stop liquidity to commercial paper issuers; coordinated
international efforts to address illiquidity and other weaknesses in the banking
sector.
In
addition, the Internal Revenue Service has issued an unprecedented wave of
guidance in response to the credit crisis, including a relaxation of limits on
the ability of financial institutions that undergo an “ownership change” to
utilize their pre-change net operating losses and net unrealized built-in
losses. The relaxation of these limits may make significantly more
attractive the acquisition of financial institutions whose tax basis in their
loan portfolios significantly exceeds the fair market value of those
portfolios.
On
October 14, 2008, the FDIC announced the establishment of a temporary liquidity
guarantee program to provide insurance for all non-interest bearing transaction
accounts and guarantees of certain newly issued senior unsecured
debt issued by financial institutions (such as Security Federal
Bank), bank holding companies and savings and loan holding companies (such as
Security Federal Corporation). Financial institutions are
automatically covered by this program for the 30-day period commencing October
14, 2008 and will continue to be covered as long as they do not affirmatively
opt out of the program.
35
Security
Federal Corporation and Subsidiaries
Part
II: Other Information, Continued
Under the
program, newly issued senior unsecured debt issued on or before June 30, 2009
will be insured in the event the issuing institution subsequently fails, or its
holding company files for bankruptcy. The debt includes all newly
issued unsecured senior debt (e.g., promissory notes,
commercial paper and inter-bank funding). The aggregate coverage for an
institution may not exceed 125% of its debt outstanding on September 30, 2008
that was scheduled to mature before June 30, 2009. The guarantee will
extend to June 30, 2012 even if the maturity of the debt is after that
date. Many details of the program still remain to be worked
out.
There can
be no assurance as to the actual impact that EESA and such related measures
undertaken to alleviate the credit crisis will have generally on the financial
markets, including the extreme levels of volatility and limited credit
availability currently being experienced. The failure of such
measures to help stabilize the financial markets and a continuation or worsening
of current financial market conditions could materially and adversely affect our
business, financial condition, results of operations, access to credit or the
trading price of our common stock.
Current
levels of market volatility are unprecedented.
The
capital and credit markets have been experiencing volatility and disruption for
more than a year. In recent months, the volatility and disruption has reached
unprecedented levels. In some cases, the markets have produced downward pressure
on stock prices and credit availability for certain issuers without regard to
those issuers’ underlying financial strength. If current levels of market
disruption and volatility continue or worsen, there can be no assurance that we
will not experience an adverse effect, which may be material, on our ability to
access capital and on our business, financial condition and results of
operations.
