(1) General, Continued.

Comprehensive (Loss) Income. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles generally requires that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net earnings. Although certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale debt securities, are reported as a separate component of Cash Flows (Unaudited)the equity section of the condensed consolidated balance sheets, such items along with net earnings, are components of comprehensive (loss) income.

Income Taxes.

During the fourth quarter of 2021 the Company assessed its earnings history and trend over the past year and its estimate of future earnings, and the Company determined that it was more likely than not that the deferred tax assets would be realized in the near term. Accordingly, in the fourth quarter of 2021, the valuation allowance in the amount of $4 million that had been previously recorded against the net deferred tax asset for the amount not expected to be realized in the future was fully reversed. Therefore, there was no provision for income taxes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021.

See accompanying notesJune 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13 Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326). The ASU improves financial reporting by requiring timelier recording of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments held by the Company. The ASU requires the Company to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Many of the loss estimation techniques applied today will still be permitted, although the inputs to those techniques will change to reflect the full amount of expected credit losses. The Company will continue to use judgment to determine which loss estimation method is appropriate for their circumstances. The ASU requires enhanced disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of an organization’s portfolio. These disclosures include qualitative and quantitative requirements that provide additional information about the amounts recorded in the condensed consolidated financial statementsstatements. Additionally, the ASU amends the accounting for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. The ASU will take effect for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company has executed an implementation plan through adoption date, implemented a software solution to assist with the estimation process, and has completed a data analysis. The Company expects that the impact of this ASU will not have a material effect to the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

OPTIMUMBANK HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

(1)General.OptimumBank Holdings, Inc. (the “Holding Company”) is a one-bank holding company and owns 100% of OptimumBank (the “Bank”), a Florida-chartered commercial bank. The Bank’s wholly-owned subsidiaries are OB Real Estate Management, LLC and OB Real Estate Holdings, LLC, both of which were formed in 2009; OB Real Estate Holdings 1692 and OB Real Estate Holdings 1704 formed in 2012, collectively, (the “Real Estate Holding Subsidiaries”). The Holding Company’s only business is the operation of the Bank and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”). The Bank’s deposits are insured up to applicable limits by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). The Bank offers a variety of community banking services to individual and corporate customers through its three banking offices located in Broward County, Florida. OB Real Estate Management, LLC is primarily engaged in managing foreclosed real estate. This subsidiary had no activity in 2017 and 2016. All other subsidiaries are primarily engaged in holding and disposing of foreclosed real estate.
Basis of Presentation.In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company contain all adjustments (consisting principally of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position at September 30, 2017, and the results of operations and comprehensive loss for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, and cash flows for the nine month periods ending September 30, 2017 and 2016. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Going Concern Status.The Company is in default with respect to its $5,155,000 Junior Subordinated Debenture (“Debenture”) due to its failure to make certain required interest payments under the Debenture. The Trustee of the Debenture (the “Trustee”) or the holders of the Debenture are entitled to accelerate the payment of the $5,155,000 principal balance plus accrued and unpaid interest totaling $1,314,000 at September 30, 2017. To date the Trustee has not accelerated the outstanding balance of the Debenture. No adjustments to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been made as a result of this uncertainty.

Management’s plans with regard to this matter are as follows: A Director of the Company has offered to purchase the Debenture and this offer has been approved by certain equity owners of the Trust that holds the Debenture. The Director has also agreed to enter into a forbearance agreement with the Company with respect to payments due under the Debenture upon consummation of the Director’s purchase of the Debenture.

In March 2016, the Trustee received a direction from certain equity owners of the Trust that holds the Debenture to sell the Debenture to a Director of the Company. Based upon the receipt of conflicting directions from other debt holders of the Trust, in August 2016, the Trustee commenced an action in a Minnesota State Court seeking directions from the Court. The case was subsequently transferred to United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, where the case is currently pending. The Company continues to pursue mechanisms for paying the accrued interest, such as raising additional capital.

Comprehensive LossGAAP generally requires that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in operations. Although certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on

(2) Debt Securities Continued.

Debt Securities available for sale securities, are reported as a separate component of the equity section of the condensed consolidated balance sheets, such items along with net (loss) earnings, are components of comprehensive loss. The only component of comprehensive loss is the net change in the unrealized loss (gain) on the securities available for sale.

Income Taxes. The Company assessed its earnings history and trends and estimates of future earnings, and determined that the deferred tax asset could not be realized as of September 30, 2017. Accordingly, a valuation allowance was recorded against the net deferred tax asset.

OPTIMUMBANK HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

(1)General, Continued.

Recent Pronouncements.In January 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-01,Financial Instruments-Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, which is intended to enhance the reporting model for financial instruments to provide users of financial statements with more decision-useful information. The ASU requires equity investments to be measured at fair value with changes in fair values recognized in net earnings, simplifies the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values by requiring a qualitative assessment to identity impairment and eliminates the requirement to disclose fair values, the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost. The ASU also clarifies that the Company should evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related to available for-sale debt securities in combination with the Company’s other deferred tax assets. The ASU is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-2,Leases (Topic 842) which will require lessees to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases with term of more than twelve months. Consistent with current GAAP, the recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee primarily will depend on its classification as a finance or operating lease. The new ASU will require both types of leases to be recognized on the balance sheet. The ASU also will require disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. These disclosures include qualitative and quantitative requirements, providing additional information about the amounts recorded in the financial statements. The ASU is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is in the process of determining the effect of the ASU on its condensed consolidated financial statements. Early application will be permitted.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09,Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718) intended to improve the accounting for employee share-based payments. The ASU affects all organizations that issue share-based payment awards to their employees. The ASU simplifies several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment award transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the consolidated statement of cash flows. The ASU was effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company has evaluated the effect of ASU and determined it has no material effect on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326). The ASU improves financial reporting by requiring timelier recording of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments held by the Company. The ASU requires the Company to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Many of the loss estimation techniques applied today will still be permitted, although the inputs to those techniques will change to reflect the full amount of expected credit losses. The Company will continue to use judgment to determine which loss estimation method is appropriate for their circumstances. The ASU requires enhanced disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of an organization’s portfolio. These disclosures include qualitative and quantitative requirements that provide additional information about the amounts recorded in the financial statements. Additionally, the ASU amends the accounting for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. The ASU will take effect for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of determining the effect of the ASU on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In March 2017, FASB issued ASU 2017-08,Receivables-Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20) which amends the accounting for the amortization of premiums for certain purchased callable debt securities by shortening the amortization period to the earliest call date. ASU 2017-08 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2017-08 may have, if any, on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In May 2017, the FASB issued new guidance related to Stock Compensation, Scope of Modification Accounting. The new guidance provides clarity and reduces both diversity in practice and cost and complexity when applying the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation. An entity will not apply modification accounting to a share-based payment award if all of the following are the same immediately before and after the change: (i) the award’s fair value, (ii) the award’s vesting conditions and (iii) the award’s classification as an equity or liability instrument. The amendments are effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of determining the effect of the amendments on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-11, The ASU amends ASC 815 which makes limited changes to the Board’s guidance on classifying certain financial instruments as either liabilities or equity. The ASU’s objective is to improve (1) the accounting for instruments with “down-round” provisions and (2) the readability of the guidance in ASC 480 on distinguishing liabilities from equity by replacing the indefinite deferral of certain pending content with scope exceptions. In addition, the ASU amends the guidance on the recognition and measurement of freestanding equity-classified instruments (e.g., warrants) by adding requirements to ASC 260 for entities that disclose earnings per share (EPS). The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, early adoption is permitted upon its issuance. The Company currently has no financials instruments related to this ASU. As a result, the adoption of this guidance is not expected to be material to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

In August 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2017-12, which amends the hedge accounting recognition and presentation requirements in ASC 815. The Board’s objectives in issuing the ASU are to improve the transparency and understandability of information conveyed to financial statement users about an entity’s risk management activities by better aligning the entity’s financial reporting for hedging relationships with those risk management activities and to reduce the complexity of and simplify the application of hedge accounting by preparers. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, early adoption is permitted upon its issuance. The Company currently has no hedging relationships. As a result, the adoption of this guidance is not expected to be material to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Reclassification.Certain amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2017 condensed consolidated financial statement presentation.

Securities, Continued.

Management evaluates debt securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrantswarrant such evaluation. Consideration is given to (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospectus of the issuer, and (3) the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.

At September 30, 20172022 and December 31, 2016,2021, the unrealized losses on fourteen investment securitiesforty-two and six investmenttwenty-nine debt securities, respectively, were caused by market conditions. It is expected that the debt securities wouldwill not be settled at a price less than the book value of the investments. Because the decline in fair value is attributable to market conditions and not credit quality, and because the Company has the ability and intent to hold these investments until a market price recovery or maturity, these investments are not considered other-than-temporarily impaired.

Loans, Continued.

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

Commercial.Commercial business loans and lines of credit consist of loans to small- and medium-sized companies in the Company’s market area. Commercial loans are generally used for working capital purposes or for acquiring equipment, inventory or furniture. Primarily all of the Company’s commercial loans are secured loans, along with a small amount of unsecured loans. The Company’s underwriting analysis consists of a review of the financial statements of the borrower, the lending history of the borrower, the debt service capabilities of the borrower, the projected cash flows of the business, the value of the collateral, if any, and whether the loan is guaranteed by the principals of the borrower. These loans are generally secured by accounts receivable, inventory and equipment. Commercial loans are typically made on the basis of the borrower’s ability to make repayment from the cash flow of the borrower’s business, which makes them of higher risk than residential loans and the collateral securing loans may be difficult to appraise and may fluctuate in value based on the success of the business. The Company seeks to minimize these risks through its underwriting standards.
Consumer.Consumer loans are extended for various purposes, including purchases of automobiles, recreational vehicles, and boats. Also offered are home improvement loans, lines of credit, personal loans, and deposit account collateralized loans. Repayment of these loans is primarily dependent on the personal income of the borrowers, which can be impacted by economic conditions in their market areas such as unemployment levels. Loans to consumers are extended after a credit evaluation, including the creditworthiness of the borrower(s), the purpose of the credit, and the secondary source of repayment. Consumer loans are made at fixed and variable interest rates. Risk is mitigated by the fact that the loans are of smaller individual amounts.

(continued)(3) Loans, Continued. The Company has divided the loan portfolio into six portfolio segments, each with different risk characteristics and methodologies for assessing risk. All loans are underwritten based upon standards set forth in the policies approved by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”). The Company identifies the portfolio segments as follows:

Residential Real Estate, Multi-Family Real Estate, Commercial Real Estate, Land and Construction. Residential real estate loans are underwritten based on repayment capacity and source, value of the underlying property, credit history and stability. The Company offers first and second one-to-four family mortgage loans; the collateral for these loans is generally the clients’ owner-occupied residences. Although these types of loans present lower levels of risk than commercial real estate loans, risks do still exist because of possible fluctuations in the value of the real estate collateral securing the loan, as well as changes in the borrowers’ financial condition. Multi-family and commercial real estate loans are secured by the subject property. Underwriting standards include, among other factors, loan to value limits, cash flow coverage and general creditworthiness of the obligors. Construction loans to borrowers finance the construction of owner occupied and leased properties. These loans are categorized as construction loans during the construction period, later converting to commercial or residential real estate loans after the construction is complete and amortization of the loan begins. Real estate development and construction loans are approved based on an analysis of the borrower and guarantor, the viability of the project and on an acceptable percentage of the appraised value of the property securing the loan.

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

Off-balance sheet financial instruments                    

(1)The Company is unable to determine the fair value based on significant unobservable inputs required in the calculation refer to Note 10 for further information.
The Company is party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments are commitments to extend credit and may involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest-rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The contract amounts of these instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Company has in these financial instruments.
The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of 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. Because some of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company, upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty.
As of September 30, 2017, commitments to extend credit totaled $4.3 million.

(9)Regulatory Matters. The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the bank regulatory agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company and Bank’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of its assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.
Effective January 1, 2015, the Bank, became subject to the new Basel III capital level threshold requirements under the Prompt Corrective Action regulations with full compliance with all of the final rule’s requirements phased in over a multi-year schedule. These new regulations were designed to ensure that banks maintain strong capital positions even in the event of severe economic downturns or unforeseen losses.
Changes that could affect the Bank going forward include additional constraints on the inclusion of deferred tax assets in capital and increased risk weightings for nonperforming loans and acquisition/development loans in regulatory capital. Beginning on January 1, 2016, the Bank became subject to the capital conservation buffer rules which places limitations on distributions, including dividend payments, and certain discretionary bonus payments to executive officers. In order to avoid these limitations, an institution must hold a capital conservation buffer above its minimum risk-based capital requirements. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Bank’s capital conversation buffer exceeds the minimum requirements of 0.625%. The required buffer is to be phased in over three years. Under the new regulations in the first quarter of 2015, the Bank elected an irreversible one-time opt-out to exclude accumulated other comprehensive loss from regulatory capital.

(continued)(8) Off- Balance Sheet Financial Instruments. The Company is party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments are commitments to extend credit, unused lines of credit, and standby letters of credit and may involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest-rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The contract amounts of these instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Company has in these financial instruments.

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

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

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit to customers is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The Bank generally holds collateral supporting those commitments. Standby letters of credit generally have expiration dates within one year.

Commitments to extend credit, unused lines of credit, and standby letters of credit typically result in loans with a market interest rate when funded. A summary of the contractual amounts of the Company’s financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk at September 30, 2022 follows (in thousands):

Schedule of Off-Balance Sheet Risks of Financial Instruments

     
Commitments to extend credit $20,335 
     
Unused lines of credit $19,962 
     
Standby letters of credit $4,313

Regulatory Enforcement Actions
Bank Consent Order. On November 7, 2016, the Bank agreed to the issuance of a Consent Order by the FDIC and the OFR (the “Consent Order”), which requires the Bank to take certain measures to improve its safety and soundness. The Consent Order supersedes the prior consent order that became effective in 2010. Pursuant to the Consent Order, the Bank is required to take certain measures to improve its management, condition and operations, including actions to improve management practices and board supervision and independence, assure that its allowance for loan losses is maintained at an appropriate level and improve liquidity. The Consent Order requires the Bank to adopt and implement a compliance plan to address the Banks obligations under the Bank Secrecy Act and related obligations related to anti-money laundering. The Consent Order prohibits the payment of dividends by the Bank. The Consent Order continues the requirement for the Bank to maintain a Tier 1 leverage ratio of at least 8% and a total risk-based capital ratio of 12% beginning 90 days from the issuance of the Consent Order. At September 30, 2017, the Bank had a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 8.54%, and a total risk-based capital ratio of 14.42%.
See Footnote 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s 2016 Form 10-K for additional information concerning the requirements of the Consent Order.

The Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of common stock, at the option of the Company, subject to the prior fulfilment of the following conditions: (i) such conversion shall have been approved by the holders of a majority of the outstanding common stock of the Company; and (ii) such conversion shall not result in any holder of the Series B Preferred Stock and any persons with whom the holder may be acting in concert, becoming beneficial owners of more than 9.9% of the outstanding shares of the common stock. The number of shares issuable upon conversion is subject to adjustment based on the terms of the applicable Certificate of Designation for the Series B Preferred (the “Certificate of Designation”). The Series B Preferred has preferential liquidation rights over common stockholders and holders of junior securities. The liquidation price is the greater of $25,000 per share of Series B Preferred or such amount per share of Series B Preferred that would have been payable had all shares of the Series B Preferred had been converted into common stock pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Designation immediately prior to a liquidation. The Series B Preferred generally has no voting rights except as provided in the Certificate of Designation.

The Series B is subdivided into Series B-1 and Series B-2 Preferred Stock. The Company is authorized to issue 760shares of Series B-1 and 260 shares of Series B-2.

Series B-2 has substantially the same rights, preferences, powers, restrictions and limitations, except that the initial conversion price of the Series B-1 is $2.50 per share and the initial conversion price for Series B-2 is $4.00 per share.

(11) Contingencies. Various claims arise from time to time in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, none have occurred that will have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Regulatory Matters, Continued.Management believes that the Bank has made substantial progress in improving its financial condition through a significant reduction in non-performing assets and the receipt of capital increases from investors since the 2010 Consent Order. The Bank is also making significant progress in resolving the other issues raised by the FDIC and the OFR including strengthening the senior management team with the addition of David Edgar as Chief Financial Officer in October 2017. Although the Bank has been hampered by difficulties in raising capital due to the default under the Junior Subordinated Debenture and the limits placed on the Company and the Bank under the prior Consent Order and the Written Agreement. Management intends to continue its efforts to meet the conditions of the New Consent Order and the Written Agreement.
Company Written Agreement with Reserve Bank. On June 22, 2010, the Company and the Reserve Bank entered into a Written Agreement with respect to certain aspects of the operation and management of the Company. The Written Agreement prohibits, without the prior approval of the Reserve Bank, the payment of dividends, taking dividends or payments from the Bank, making any interest, principal or other distributions on trust preferred securities (including the Debenture), incurring, increasing or guaranteeing any debt, purchasing or redeeming any shares of stock, or appointing any new director or senior executive officer. Management believes that the Company is in substantial compliance with the requirements of the Written Agreement.

(10)Junior Subordinated Debenture. On September 30, 2004, the Company issued a $5,155,000 junior subordinated debenture to an unconsolidated subsidiary (the “Debenture”). The Debenture has a term of thirty years. The interest rate was fixed at 6.4% for the first five years, and thereafter, the coupon rate floats quarterly at the three-month LIBOR rate plus 2.45% (3.78% at September 30, 2017). The Debenture is redeemable in certain circumstances. The terms of the Debenture allow the Company to defer payments of interest on the Debenture by extending the interest payment period at any time during the term of the Debenture for up to twenty consecutive quarterly periods. Beginning in 2010, the Company exercised its right to defer payment of interest on the Debenture. Interest payments deferred as of September 30, 2017 totaled $1,314,000. The Company has deferred interest payments with respect to the Debenture for the maximum allowable twenty consecutive quarterly payments. The holder of the Debenture can accelerate the $5,155,000 principal balance as a result of this default. Under the Written Agreement, the Company is not able to make these interest payments without the prior approval of the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta. Regulatory approval to pay accrued and unpaid interest has been denied.
A Director of the Company has offered to purchase the Debenture and this offer has been approved by certain equity owners of the Trust that holds the Debenture. The Director has also agreed to enter into a forbearance agreement with the Company with respect to payments due under the Debenture upon consummation of the Director’s purchase of the debenture.
In March of 2016, the Trustee received a direction from certain equity owners of the Trust that hold the Debenture to Sell the Debenture to a Director of the Company. Based upon the receipt of other conflicting directions, in August 26, 2016, the Trustee commenced an action in a Minnesota State Court seeking directions from the Court. The case was subsequently transferred to the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, were the case is currently pending. The Company continues to pursue mechanisms for paying the accrued interest, such as raising additional capital.
(11)Reverse Common Stock Split. Effective January 11, 2016 each ten shares of the Company’s common stock were converted into one share of common stock. Loss (earnings) per share for 2017 and 2016 has been adjusted to reflect the 1-for-10 reverse common stock split.
(12)Loan Loss Recovery.On January 6, 2016, the Bank completed a sale of judgement on a defaulted credit that resulted in a $1.8 million recovery of previously charged-off amounts to the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses (“ALLL”). This increased the balance of the ALLL to approximately $4.2 million. On February 12, 2016, and amended May 6, 2016, pursuant to the terms and requirements of the Consent Order, Management submitted a written request to the FDIC for a partial reversal of the ALLL. The FDIC has requested additional information to assess the Bank’s request for a reversal. As of this date, the FDIC has not reached a final decision in regards to the Bank’s request.
(13)Reclassification.During the quarter ended March 31, 2016, the Company agreed to issue 46,296 shares to the Bank’s Chairman as compensation. The Company recorded compensation expense of $200,000 based on the fair market value of the shares at that time, and reflected the issuance of the shares as an increase in stockholders’ equity. The Bank’s Chairman has not yet taken delivery of the shares. As a result, during the quarter ended September 30, 2016, the Company determined to reclassify the transaction as a liability of the Company (rather than an increase in stockholders’ equity) until the issuance of the shares. As of December 31, 2016, an accrued liability totaling $200,000 was recorded in connection with these shares.
(14)Brokered Deposits.Under the terms of the Consent Order, the Bank is not permitted to solicit brokered deposits. In March 2017, the FDIC notified the Bank that it considers a significant portion of the Bank’s certificates of deposit to be brokered deposits due to the rates paid on such deposits, even though such deposits were not obtained through any deposit brokers. The Bank has requested a waiver of the prohibition on brokered deposits from the FDIC which has been subsequently withdrawn. Consequently, the Bank can not renew or rollover the existing certificates of deposit that are viewed as brokered deposits, which have an adverse effect on the Bank’s liquidity. Management has identified several strategies to mitigate this issue and believes that the Bank’s liquidity will be sufficient. As of September 30, 2017, the Bank had $25.1 million in brokered deposits that will mature over the next two years. Management is exploring all alternatives to resolve this issue including, but not limited to, raising local deposits.
(15)Bank Secrecy Act (“BSA”) Lookback Review.Under the terms of the Consent Order, the Bank is required to perform a BSA lookback review. The Bank estimates that the cost of the BSA lookback review will range from $250,000 to $300,000 based on an independent firm’s proposal for services. The proposal and ultimate agreement is subject to FDIC review and approval. Until the approval is received, these BSA services cannot be rendered. Once the BSA lookback review begins, the independent firm has 120 days to complete the work. As of September 30, 2017, the Bank has accrued $210,000 for the proposed services.

Regulatory Enforcement Actions

Bank Consent Order. On November 7, 2016, the Bank agreed to the issuance of a Consent Order by the FDIC and the OFR (the “Consent Order”), which requires the Bank to take certain measures to improve its safety and soundness. The Consent Order supersedes the prior consent order that became effective in 2010. Pursuant to the Consent Order, the Bank is required to take certain measures to improve its management, condition and operations, including actions to improve management practices and board supervision and independence, assure that its allowance for loan losses is maintained at an appropriate level and improve liquidity. The Consent Order requires the Bank to adopt and implement a compliance plan to address the Banks obligations under the Bank Secrecy Act and related obligations related to anti-money laundering. The Consent Order prohibits the payment of dividends by the Bank. The Consent Order continues the requirement for the Bank to maintain a Tier 1 leverage ratio of at least 8% and a total risk-based capital ratio of 12% beginning 90 days from the issuance of the Consent Order. At September 30, 2017, the Bank had a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 8.54%, and a total risk-based capital ratio of 14.42%.

See Footnote 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s 2016 Form 10-K for additional information concerning the requirements of the Consent Order.

Liquidity and Sources of Funds

The Bank’sCompany’s sources of funds include customer deposits, advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (“FHLB”), sales and principal repayments and sales of investmentdebt securities, loan repayments, foreclosed real estate sales, the use of Federal Funds markets, net earnings, if any, and loans taken out at the Federal Reserve Bank discount window.

Deposits are our primary source of funds. In order to increase its core deposits, the BankCompany has priced its deposit rates competitively. The BankCompany will adjust rates on its deposits to attract or retain deposits as needed. Under

In the past, the Company, on an unconsolidated basis, relied on dividends from the Bank to fund its operating expenses, primarily expenses of being publicly held, and to make interest payments on the Company’s junior subordinated debenture (the “Debenture”). Under the Consent Order, the Bank is currently unable to pay dividends to the Company without prior regulatory approval. Additionally, under the Written Agreement, the Company may not pay interest payments on the Debenture or dividends on the Company’s common stock, incur any additional indebtedness at the Company level, or redeem the Company’s common stock without the prior regulatory approval of the Federal Reserve Bank. Since January 2010, the Company has deferred interest payments on the Debenture, which has been in default since 2015. See “Junior Subordinated Debenture” below.

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.

Junior Subordinated Debenture

On September 30, 2004, the Company issued a $5,155,000 junior subordinated debenture to an unconsolidated subsidiary (the “Debenture”). The Debenture has a termItem 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of thirty years. The interest rate was fixed at 6.4% for the first five years,Financial Condition and thereafter, the coupon rate floats quarterly at the three-month LIBOR rate plus 2.45% (3.78% at September 30, 2017). The Debenture is redeemable in certain circumstances. The terms of the Debenture allow the Company to defer payments of interest on the Debenture by extending the interest payment period at any time during the term of the Debenture for up to twenty consecutive quarterly periods. Beginning in 2010, the Company exercised its right to defer payment of interest on the Debenture. Interest payments deferred as of September 30, 2017 totaled $1,314,000. The Company has deferred interest payments with respect to the Debenture for the maximum allowable twenty consecutive quarterly payments. The holder of the Debenture can accelerate the $5,155,000 principal balance as a result of this default. Under the Written Agreement, the Company is not able to make these interest payments without the prior approval of the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta.

The case was subsequently transferred to the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, were the case is currently pending. The Company continues to pursue mechanisms for paying the accrued interest, such as raising additional capital.

In the event the amounts due under the Debenture were accelerated, then the Trustee could undertake legal proceedings to obtain a judgment against the Company with respect to such amounts due under the Debenture. If this action were successful, then the Trustee could seek to affect a sale of the Bank to pay the amounts due under the Debenture.

Item 3. Defaults on Senior Securities

Junior Subordinated Debenture

On September 30, 2004, the Company issued a $5,155,000 junior subordinated debenture to an unconsolidated subsidiary (the “Debenture”). The Debenture has a term of thirty years. The interest rate was fixed at 6.4% for the first five years, and thereafter, the coupon rate floats quarterly at the three-month LIBOR rate plus 2.45% (3.78% at September 30, 2017). The Debenture is redeemable in certain circumstances. The terms of the Debenture allow the Company to defer payments of interest on the Debenture by extending the interest payment period at any time during the term of the Debenture for up to twenty consecutive quarterly periods. Beginning in 2010, the Company exercised its right to defer payment of interest on the Debenture. Interest payments deferred as of September 30, 2017 totaled $1,314,000. The Company has deferred interest payments with respect to the Debenture for the maximum allowable twenty consecutive quarterly payments. The holder of the Debenture can accelerate the $5,155,000 principal balance as a result of this default. Under the Written Agreement, the Company is not able to make these interest payments without the prior approval of the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta. Regulatory approval to pay accrued and unpaid interest has been denied.

A Director of the Company has offered to purchase the Debenture and this offer has been approved by certain equity owners of the Trust that holds the Debenture. The Director has also agreed to enter into a forbearance agreement with the Company with respect to payments due under the Debenture upon consummation of the Director’s purchase of the debenture.

In March of 2016, the Trustee received a direction from certain equity owners of the Trust that hold the Debenture to Sell the Debenture to a Director of the Company. Based upon the receipt of other conflicting directions, in August 26, 2016, the Trustee commenced an action in a Minnesota State Court seeking directions from the Court. The case was subsequently transferred to the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, were the case is currently pending. The Company continues to pursue mechanisms for paying the accrued interest, such as raising additional capital.

In the event the amounts due under the Debenture were accelerated, then the Trustee could undertake legal proceedings to obtain a judgment against the Company with respect to such amounts due under the Debenture. If this action were successful, then the Trustee could seek to affect a sale of the Bank to pay the amounts due under the Debenture.
