The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

(4) (Loss) Earnings Per Share. Basic (loss) earnings per share has been computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. In 2008, diluted earnings per share were computed based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding plus the effect of outstanding stock options, computed using the treasury stock method. In 2009, basic and diluted loss per share are the same due to the net loss incurred by the Company. All amounts reflect the 5% stock dividends declared in May, 2009 and 2008. (Loss) earnings per common share have been computed based on the following:

(5) Stock-Based Compensation. As of December 31, 2005, all stock options were fully vested and no options have been granted since 2005; therefore, no stock-based compensation has been recognized.

The Company established an Incentive Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”) for officers, directors and employees of the Company and reserved 630,720 (amended) shares of common stock for the plan. Both incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options may be granted under the plan. The exercise price of the stock options is determined by the board of directors at the time of grant, but cannot be less than the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. The options vest over three and five years. The options must be exercised within ten years from the date of grant. At September 30, 2009, 14,951 options were available for grant.

Review by Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Hacker, Johnson & Smith PA, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, have made a limited review of the interim financial data as of September 30, 2009, and for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, presented in this document, in accordance with standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board.

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

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

OptimumBank Holdings, Inc.

Fort Lauderdale, Florida:

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of OptimumBank Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiary (the “Company”) as of September 30, 2009, and the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 and the related condensed consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008. These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.

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

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

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2008, and the related consolidated statements of earnings, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated March 13, 2009, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2008, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Comparison of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s primary sources of cash during the nine months ended September 30, 2009 were principal repayments of securities held to maturity of approximately $19.7 million, net deposit inflows of approximately $20.3 million and cash provided from operating activities of approximately $1.3 million. Cash was used primarily for purchases of securities of approximately $24.0 million and the repayment of Federal Home Loan Bank advances of $5.0 million. At September 30, 2009, the Company had time deposits of approximately $85.8 million that mature in one year or less. Management believes that, if so desired, it can adjust the rates on time deposits to retain or attract deposits in a changing interest-rate environment.

We have agreed with the bank regulatory agencies that OptimumBank, our subsidiary bank, will limit its asset growth to no more than 5%, will make no significant change in its funding sources, and will not increase its brokered deposits.

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

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis

of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, Continued

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

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

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

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

A summary of the amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, with off-balance sheet risk at September 30, 2009, follows (in thousands):

 

     Contract
Amount

Commitments to extend credit

   $ 2,250
      

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

Comparison of the Three-Month Periods Ended September 30, 2009 and 2008

General. Net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2009, were $(313,000) or $(.10) per basic and diluted share compared to net earnings of $201,000 or $.06 per basic and diluted share for the period ended September 30, 2008. This decrease in the Company’s net earnings was primarily due to an increase in the provision for loan losses.

Interest Income. Interest income decreased to $3.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009 from $3.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2008. Interest income on loans decreased due primarily to a decrease in the average loan portfolio balance and a decrease in the average yield earned for the three months ended September 30, 2009. Interest on securities increased to $1.3 million due primarily to an increase in the average balance of the securities portfolio and an increase in the average yield earned from 5.40% for the three months ended September 30, 2008, to 5.55% for the three months ended September 30, 2009.

Interest Expense. Interest expense on deposits decreased to $0.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009 from $1.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2008. Interest expense decreased primarily because of a decrease in the average yield paid during 2009.

Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for the three months ended September 30, 2009, was $733,000 compared to $47,000 for the same period in 2008. The provision for loan losses is charged to operations as losses are estimated to have occurred in order to bring the total allowance for loan losses to a level deemed appropriate by management to absorb losses inherent in the portfolio at September 30, 2009. Management’s periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is based upon historical experience, the volume and type of lending conducted by us, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, estimated value of the underlying collateral, loans identified as impaired, general economic conditions, particularly as they relate to our market areas, and other factors related to the estimated collectibility of our loan portfolio. The increase in the provision for loan losses for third quarter of 2009 was due to potential increased credit risk on existing loans which resulted in a $600,000 increase in the specific reserve allocation for impaired loans and a $133,000 increase in the general reserve allocation. The allowance for loan losses totaled $2,878,000 or 1.84% of loans outstanding at September 30, 2009, compared to $1,906,000, or 1.17% of loans outstanding at December 31, 2008. Management believes the balance in the allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2009 is adequate.

Noninterest Income. Total noninterest income decreased to $14,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2009, from $78,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2008, primarily due to a decrease in loan prepayment fees and late charge fees.

Noninterest Expenses. Total noninterest expenses remained $1.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2008. Increases in 2009 due to a special assessment by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation of $119,000 and an other-than-termporary impairment on securities of $179,000 were offset by a $293,000 reduction in losses on sale of foreclosed assets.

Income Taxes (Benefit). Income tax benefit for the three months ended September 30, 2009, was $(190,000) (an effective rate of 37.8%) compared to income taxes of $122,000 (an effective rate of 37.8%) for the three months ended September 30, 2008.

Comparison of the Nine-Month Periods Ended September 30, 2009 and 2008

General. Net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, were $(2,425,000) or $(.74) per basic and diluted share compared to net earnings of $1,019,000 or $.31 per basic and diluted share for the period ended September 30, 2008. This decrease in the Company’s net earnings was primarily due to an increase in the provision for loan losses.

Interest Income. Interest income decreased to $11.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 compared to $11.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. Interest income on loans decreased to $7.3 million due primarily to a decrease in the average loan portfolio balance and a decrease in the average yield earned in 2009. Interest on securities increased to $3.8 million due primarily to an increase in the average balance of the securities portfolio in 2009 and an increase in the average yield earned.

Interest Expense. Interest expense on deposit accounts decreased to $2.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, from $3.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. Interest expense on deposits decreased primarily because of a decrease in the average yield paid in 2009. Interest expense on borrowings increased to $3.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 from $3.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 due primarily to an increase in the average balance of borrowings.

Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, was $5,240,000 compared to $161,000 for the same period in 2008. The provision for loan losses is charged to operations as losses are estimated to have occurred in order to bring the total allowance for loan losses to a level deemed appropriate by management to absorb losses inherent in the loan portfolio at September 30, 2009. Management’s periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is based upon historical experience, the volume and type of lending conducted by us, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, estimated value of the underlying collateral, loans identified as impaired, general economic conditions, particularly as they relate to our market areas, and other factors related to the estimated collectibility of our loan portfolio. The increase in the provision for loan losses for 2009 was due to potential increased credit risk on existing loans which resulted in a $4,619,000 increase in the specific reserve allocation for impaired loans and a $621,000 increase in the general reserve allocation. The allowance for loan losses totaled $2,878,000 or 1.84% of loans outstanding at September 30, 2009, compared to $1,906,000, or 1.17% of loans outstanding at December 31, 2008. Management believes the balance in the allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2009 is adequate.

Noninterest Income. Total noninterest income decreased to $22,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, from $158,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 primarily due to a decrease in loan prepayment fees and late charge fees.

Noninterest Expenses. Total noninterest expenses increased to $3.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 from $3.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, primarily due to a special assessment by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation of $119,000 and an other-than-temporary impairment on securities of $179,000 in 2009.

Income Taxes (Benefit). Income tax benefit for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, was $(1,463,000) (an effective rate of 37.6%) compared to income taxes of $615,000 (an effective rate of 37.6%) for the nine months ended September 30, 2008.

Item 4T. Controls and Procedures

 

a. Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. On November 23, 2009, the Company restated its interim financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009. In the restatement, management increased the level of impaired loans and reported substantial additional provisions for loan losses and charge offs of impaired real estate loans for the three months ended June 30, 2009. Management made the adjustments to the Company’s financial statements as a result of adjustments to the Bank’s call report for June 30, 2009. Among other things, the adjustments were based on management’s review of additional information regarding the Company’s real estate loan portfolio, reevaluation of the underlying collateral and identification of continued deterioration in the ability of some of the borrowers to make loan payments.

As a result of the restatement, management is in the process of evaluating the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2009, including the identification of any material weaknesses in the Company’s internal controls. Management has not yet reached a conclusion as to whether the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2009. Management intends to retain outside advisors to assist with this process and expects to complete its evaluation as promptly as possible, but in no event later than December 31, 2009.

 

b. Changes in Internal Controls. During the period covered by this report, there have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. However, as described above, management is in the process of evaluating the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2009, including the identification of any material weaknesses in the Company’s internal controls. If material weaknesses are identified, the Company has directed management to promptly develop such modifications to its internal control processes and procedures as may be necessary to address the identified material weaknesses.
