FIRST FINANCIAL HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
March 31, 2012
NOTE 1. Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for First Financial Holdings, Inc. (“First Financial”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, including First Federal Bank (“First Federal”), a South Carolina-chartered commercial bank, have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2012.
Certain amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. First Financial’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in First Financial’s 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2011. For interim reporting purposes, First Financial follows the same basic accounting policies, as updated by the information contained in this report. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in First Financial’s 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
First Financial has one active wholly-owned trust formed for the purpose of issuing securities which qualify as regulatory capital and is considered a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”). First Financial is not the primary beneficiary, and consequently, the trust is not consolidated in the consolidated financial statements. The trust issued $46.4 million in trust preferred securities to investors in 2004 and there remains $46.4 million outstanding at March 31, 2012. The net proceeds from the issuance were used to purchase junior subordinated deferrable interest debentures issued by First Financial, which is the sole asset of the trust. The trust preferred securities held by this entity qualify as Tier 1 capital for First Financial and are classified as long-term debt on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, with the associated interest expense recorded in interest on borrowed money on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The expected losses and residual returns for this entity are absorbed by the trust preferred security holders and, consequently, First Financial is not exposed to loss related to this VIE.
Change in Fiscal Year
On December 20, 2011, First Financial’s Board of Directors approved an amendment to Article VIII of First Financial’s bylaws to change First Financial’s fiscal year end from September 30th to December 31st of each year. The change was effective December 31, 2011 and the current fiscal year began on January 1, 2012 and will end on December 31, 2012. The change in fiscal year end resulted in a three-month transition period which began on October 1, 2011 and ended on December 31, 2011. As a result of its change in fiscal year, First Financial filed a Transition Report on Form 10-Q with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 9, 2012 which covered the transition period from October 1, 2011 to December 31, 2011.
Discontinued Operations
As a result of First Financial’s sale of its insurance agency subsidiary, First Southeast Insurance Services, Inc., which was completed on June 1, 2011, and its managing general insurance agency subsidiary, Kimbrell Insurance Group, Inc., which was completed on September 30, 2011, the financial condition, operating results, and the gain or loss on the sales, net of transaction costs and taxes, for these subsidiaries have been segregated from the financial condition and operating results of First Financial’s continuing operations throughout this report and, as such, are presented as discontinued operations. While all prior periods have been revised retrospectively to align with this treatment, these changes do not affect First Financial’s reported consolidated financial condition or operating results for any of the prior periods.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
FASB ASU 2011-05, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) – Presentation of Comprehensive Income” as amended by Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-12, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220)-Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassification of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-05.”
This ASU increases the prominence of other comprehensive income (“OCI”) in financial statements and provides two options for presenting OCI. The ASU eliminates the current placement near the statement of shareholders’ equity or detailed in the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Shareholders’ Equity. The ASU provides for an OCI statement to be included with the net income statement, and together the two will make a statement of total comprehensive income. Alternatively, businesses can have an OCI statement separate from a net income statement, but the two statements will have to appear consecutively within a financial report. The ASU does not affect the calculation of earnings per share. The adoption of ASU 2011-05 was effective December 15, 2011. First Financial elected to present a separate OCI statement which is located immediately following its Consolidated Statements of Operations.
9
FASB ASU 2011-04, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) – Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs”
This ASU amends the wording used to describe many of the requirements in GAAP for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements. The ASU clarifies the application of existing fair value measurement requirements and changes principles or requirement for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. The ASU will require new disclosures for any transfers between Levels 1 and 2 of the fair value hierarchy, not just significant transfers, and further expands focus on Level 3 measurements, including quantitative information about the significant unobservable inputs used for all Level 3 measurements, a qualitative discussion about the sensitivity of recurring Level 3 measurements to changes in the unobservable inputs disclosed, and a description of the valuation processes. The adoption of ASU 2011-04 was effective for reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2011 and is included in Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
FASB ASU 2011-03, “Transfer and Servicing (Topic 860) – Reconsideration of Effective Control of Repurchase Agreements”
This ASU improves the accounting for repurchase agreements and other agreements that entitle and obligate a transferor to repurchase or redeem financial assets before their maturity. ASU 2011-03 removes from the assessment of effective control: (1) the criterion requiring the transferor to have the ability to repurchase or redeem the financial assets on substantially the agreed terms, even in the event of default by the transferee, and (2) the collateral maintenance implementation related to that criterion. Other criterions applicable to the assessment of effective control are not changed by the amendments in this ASU. The adoption of ASU 2011-03 was effective December 15, 2011 and did not have a material impact on First Financial’s financial condition or results of operations.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
FASB ASU 2011-11, “Balance Sheet (Topic 210) - Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities.”
This ASU addresses the differences in reporting between GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) regarding offsetting (netting) assets and liabilities and enhances current disclosures. ASU 2011-11 requires entities to disclose both gross information and net information about instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the statement of financial position and instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting arrangement. The scope includes derivatives, sale and repurchase agreements and reverse sales and repurchase agreements, as well as securities borrowing and securities lending arrangements. ASU 2011-11 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013 and interim periods within those annual periods. First Financial does not expect the adoption of ASU 2011-11 to have a material impact on its financial condition or results of operations.
Note 2. Investment Securities
The following table presents amortized cost, gross unrealized gains and losses, and estimated fair value on investment securities.

Other-Than-Temporary Impairment (“OTTI”)
Management evaluates securities for OTTI on at least a quarterly basis. In determining OTTI, investment securities are evaluated according to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 320-10 and management considers many factors including: (1) the length of time and extent to which the fair value has been less than cost; (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer; (3) whether the market decline was affected by macroeconomic conditions; and (4) whether First Financial has the intent to sell the debt security or more likely than not will be required to sell the debt security before its anticipated recovery. The assessment of whether OTTI exists involves a high degree of subjectivity and is based on information available to management on the assessment date. In assessing the recovery of value, the key factors reviewed include the length of time and the extent the fair value has been less than the carrying cost, adverse conditions, if any, specifically related to the security, industry or geographic area, historical and implied volatility of the fair value of the security, credit quality factors affecting the issuer or the underlying collateral, payment structure of the security, payment history of the security, changes to the credit rating of the security, recoveries or declines in value subsequent to the balance sheet date or any other relevant factors. Evaluations are performed on a more frequent basis as the degree to which fair value is below carrying cost or the length of time that the fair value has been continuously below carrying cost increases.
At March 31, 2012, the majority of unrealized losses were related to trust preferred collateralized debt obligations (“CDOs”) and private-label collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”) as discussed below. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, a credit-related OTTI of $69 thousand was recorded in net impairment losses recognized in earnings in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The total carrying value of securities affected by credit-related OTTI represents 5.2% of the carrying value of First Financial’s investment portfolio at March 31, 2012, which has a negligible impact on First Financial’s liquidity and capital positions.
Collateralized Debt Obligations
The CDO portfolio is collateralized primarily with trust preferred securities issued by other financial institutions in pooled issuances. To determine the fair value, cash flow models for trust preferred CDOs provided by a third-party pricing service are utilized. The models estimate default vectors for the underlying issuers within each CDO security, estimate expected bank failures across the entire banking system to determine the impact on each CDO, and assign a risk rating to each individual issuer in the collateral pool. The individual risk ratings for the underlying securities in the pools were determined by a number of factors including Tier 1 capital ratio, return on assets, percent of nonperforming loans, percent of commercial and construction loans, and level of broker deposits for each underlying issuer. The risk ratings were used to determine an expected default vector for each CDO. The model assigns assumptions for constant default rate, loss severity, recovery lags, and prepayment assumptions, which were reviewed for reasonableness and consistency by management. The resulting projected cash flows were compared to book value to determine the amount of OTTI, if any.
The following table provides information regarding the CDO portfolio characteristics and OTTI losses.

The estimated fair value of these CDOs continues to be adversely affected by the elevated credit losses within the financial industry caused by the recession, continued uncertain economic conditions, high unemployment rates, and the weak national housing market, all of which have severely impacted the creditworthiness of the underlying issuers. As of March 31, 2012, management does not intend to sell these securities, nor is it more likely than not that First Financial will be required to sell the securities before the amortized cost basis is recovered as First Financial has adequate other sources of liquidity.
Collateralized Mortgage Obligations
The CMO portfolio is mainly comprised of private-label, non-agency mortgage-backed securities. To determine the fair value, cash flow models provided by a third-party pricing service are utilized. The models incorporate recent transaction volumes, price quotations and related price variability, available broker information, and market liquidity. As a result, the models estimate each security’s cash flow and adjusted price based on coupon, credit rating, constant prepayment rate, and required yields or spreads.
13
If a private label security is rated below investment grade by a credit rating agency, a stress test is performed to determine if the security has any OTTI. See Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on fair value.
The following table presents the investment grades assigned by the rating agencies and OTTI losses for the CMO securities which were in a loss position at March 31, 2012.

The loans held for sale are comprised of residential mortgage loans to be sold in the secondary market, and generally settle in 45 to 60 days.
On April 10, 2009, First Federal entered into a purchase and assumption agreement with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) to acquire certain assets and liabilities of the former Cape Fear Bank (the “Cape Fear Acquisition”). Refer to Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding the Cape Fear Acquisition. The acquired loan portfolio and other repossessed assets (solely comprised of other real estate owned (“OREO”)) are subject to a loss sharing agreement with the FDIC and the table above includes these “covered loans” and “covered OREO.”
The following table presents the loan portfolio by age of delinquency.

Loans acquired in the Cape Fear Acquisition that were performing at the time of acquisition, but have subsequently become nonaccrual are included in the tables above. Nonperforming loans acquired at acquisition are included in the current loan category in the “Age Analysis Past Due Loans” table above and, as such, are not included in the “Nonperforming Assets” table above since these loans were adjusted to fair value at the acquisition date and accounted for under ASC 310-30.
Impaired Loans

In accordance with ASC 310-10-35, a loan is considered impaired when First Federal determines it is probable that the principal and interest due under the contractual terms of the loan will not be collected. Criticized and classified commercial loans (as defined in the “Criticized Loans, Classified Loans and Other Risk Characteristics” section of this Note) greater than $500,000 are reviewed for potential impairment as part of a monthly problem loan review process. In addition, homogeneous loans which have been modified are reviewed for potential impairment.
In assessing the impairment of a loan and the related reserve required for that loan, various methodologies are employed. Impairment measurement on loans that are not collateral dependent is determined primarily using the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate. With respect to most real estate loans, and specifically if the loan is considered to be collected through a probable foreclosure, an approach that estimates the fair value of the underlying collateral is used. The collateral is appraised to reflect estimated realizable value, with the market value being adjusted for estimated selling costs. First Federal’s policy is to update collateral appraisals on impaired loans at least annually, and more frequently if deemed necessary based on market conditions or specific circumstances. Significant downward trends in the real estate market can adversely affect First Federal’s collateral position. For larger credits or loans that are classified “substandard” or worse that rely primarily on real estate collateral, re-appraisal would occur earlier than the stated policy if management believes the market conditions have changed such that the existing appraisal may no longer reflect the current market value of the property. At a minimum, at the time a loan with a principal balance of over $500,000 is downgraded to “substandard” or worse, or if the loan is determined to be impaired, the property securing the loan is re-appraised to update the value. In addition to updated appraisals, market bids or current offers may be utilized to estimate current value.
First Federal maintains a valuation reserve for impaired loans as part of the allowance for loan losses. Cash collected on impaired nonaccrual loans is applied to outstanding principal. A summary of impaired loans, related valuation reserves, and their effect on interest income follows.

Troubled Debt Restructuring (“TDR”)
First Federal accounts for certain loan modifications or restructurings as a TDR. In general, the modification or restructuring of a loan is considered a TDR if, for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower’s financial difficulties, a concession is granted to the borrower that First Federal would not otherwise consider. Concessions may relate to the contractual interest rate, maturity date, payment structure of the note or other actions. In accordance with GAAP, loans acquired under ASC 310-30 are not initially considered to be TDRs. The following table provides a summary of TDRs by accruing status. The TDRs on nonaccrual status are included in the nonperforming asset table above.

1 | Outstanding recorded investment as defined by ASC 310-35-24, includes the loan balance, accrued interest, loan fees or costs, and unamortized premium or discount. |
The following table provides a summary of the loans that were modified for rate or structure as a TDR during the twelve months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 and which subsequently defaulted during the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011. There was no incremental impact to the allowance for loan losses as a result of the defaults as the defaulted loans were already reviewed for impairment in accordance with ASC 310-10-35.

Criticized Loans, Classified Loans and Other Risk Characteristics
Federal regulations provide for the designation of lower quality loans as special mention, substandard, doubtful or loss. Loans designated as special mention are considered “criticized” by regulatory definitions and possess characteristics of weakness which may not necessarily manifest into future loss. Loans designated as substandard, doubtful or loss are considered “classified” by regulatory definitions. Substandard loans are inadequately protected by the current net worth, liquidity and paying capacity of the borrower or any collateral pledged and include loans characterized by the distinct possibility that some loss will occur if the deficiencies are not corrected. Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values. Loans classified as loss are those considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance without the establishment of a specific loss reserve is not warranted. When First Federal classifies problem loans as a loss, they are charged-off in the period in which they are deemed uncollectible. First Federal evaluates its commercial loans regularly to determine whether they are appropriately risk rated in accordance with applicable regulations and internal policies.
The following table presents the risk profiles for the commercial loan portfolio by the primary categories monitored.

For residential and consumer loans, First Federal evaluates credit quality based on payment activity, accrual status, and if a loan was modified from its original contractual terms. In addition, residential and consumer loans that are part of a classified commercial relationship (i.e., the non-commercial loans in that borrower’s relationship) are also rated as classified loans unless the underlying facts support otherwise.
The following tables present the risk indicators for the residential and consumer loan portfolios.

NOTE 4. FDIC Indemnification Asset
First Federal has a loss share agreement with the FDIC related to the Cape Fear Acquisition which affords First Federal significant protection regarding certain acquired assets. Under the loss sharing agreement, First Federal shares in the losses on assets covered under the agreement with the FDIC. On losses up to $110.0 million, First Federal assumes the first $32.4 million and the FDIC reimburses First Federal for 80% of the losses greater than $32.4 million and up to $110.0 million. On losses exceeding $110.0 million, the FDIC will reimburse First Federal for 95% of the losses. The expected reimbursements under the loss sharing agreement were recorded as an indemnification asset at the time of the Cape Fear Acquisition in April 2009.
The following table presents the change in the FDIC indemnification asset during the current fiscal year.

NOTE 6. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair value estimates are intended to represent the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Where there is no active market for a financial instrument, First Financial has made estimates using discounted cash flow or other valuation techniques. Inputs to these valuation methods are subjective in nature, involve uncertainties, and require significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Accordingly, the derived fair value estimates presented below are not necessarily indicative of the amounts First Financial could realize in a current market exchange.
Assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value according to a fair value hierarchy comprised of three levels. The levels are based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. The level of an asset or liability within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement (with Level 1 considered highest and Level 3 considered lowest). A brief description of each level follows.
|
|
• | Level 1 – Valuation is based on quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets. |
• | Level 2 – Valuation is based on quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market. |
• | Level 3 – Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use at least one significant assumption not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect estimates that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include the use of discounted cash flow models and similar techniques. |
The following table presents the carrying value and fair value of the financial instruments.

Securities Available for Sale
The fair value of securities available for sale that are classified as Level 3 include certain private-label mortgage-backed securities and trust preferred CDOs. In the absence of observable or corroborated market data, estimates that incorporate market-based assumptions are used when such information is available. These values take into account recent market activity as well as other market observable data such as interest rate, spread and prepayment information. When market observable data is not available, the valuation of the security is subjective and may involve substantial judgment. To determine the fair value, cash flow models provided by a third-party pricing service are utilized. The models incorporate market participant data and knowledge of the structures of each individual security to develop cash flows specific to each security and apply appropriate discount rates. The discount rates are developed by determining credit spreads above a benchmark rate, such as LIBOR, and adding premiums based on a comparison of initial issuance spread to LIBOR versus a financial sector curve for recently issued debt to LIBOR. Specific securities that have increased uncertainty regarding the receipt of cash flows are discounted at higher rates due to the addition of a deal specific credit premium. Pricing is reviewed for reasonableness based on the direction of the specific markets and the general economic indicators. For trust preferred CDOs, the models estimate default vectors for the underlying issuers within each CDO security, estimate expected bank failures across the entire banking system to determine the impact on each CDO, and assign a risk rating to each individual issuer in the collateral pool. For private-label CMOs, the pricing model estimates each security’s cash flows and adjusted price based on coupon, constant prepayment rate, default rate, and required yields or spreads. If a security is rated below investment grade by a credit agency, a stress test is performed to determine OTTI.
Residential Mortgage Servicing Rights
The estimated fair value of residential mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) is obtained through an independent third party analysis of future cash flows. The evaluation utilizes assumptions market participants would use in determining fair value including market discount rates, prepayment speeds, servicing income, servicing costs, default rates and other market driven data, as well as the market’s perception of future interest rate movements. MSRs are classified as Level 3.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The fair value of derivative instruments is based on quoted market prices.
The following table presents quantitative information regarding the assumptions used for valuing Level 3 assets.

Loans Held for Sale
Loans held for sale are comprised of residential mortgage loans originated for sale in the secondary market. The fair value of residential mortgage loans originated for sale in the secondary market is based on purchase commitments or quoted prices for the same or similar loans.
Impaired Loans, net of Specific Allowance
Impaired loans are evaluated and valued at the time the loan is identified as impaired, at the lower of cost or fair value. These loans are generally collateral dependent and their value is measured based on the value of the collateral securing these loans. Certain assumptions and unobservable inputs are currently being used by appraisers. Year-to-date losses include change-offs which had a specific reserve established in prior quarters. Specific reserves for impaired loans were $1.0 million at March 31, 2012.
FDIC Indemnification Asset, net
The fair value is determined by the projected cash flows from the FDIC loss share agreement based on expected reimbursements for losses at the applicable loss sharing percentages pursuant to the terms of the loss share agreement. Cash flows are discounted to reflect the timing and receipt of reimbursements from the FDIC.
Other Repossessed Assets Acquired
Other repossessed assets acquired in settlement of loans are recorded at the lower of the principal balance of the loan or fair value of the property less estimated selling expenses. Certain assumptions and unobservable inputs are currently being used by appraisers.
Assets Not Recorded at Fair Value
The following table presents the assets not recorded at fair value categorized by the level of inputs.

Additionally, accounting standards require the disclosure of the estimated fair value of financial instruments that are not recorded at fair value. A financial instrument is defined as cash, evidence of an ownership interest in an entity or a contract that creates a contractual obligation or right to deliver or receive cash or another financial instrument from a second entity. For the
26
financial instruments that First Financial does not record at fair value, estimates of fair value are calculated based on the value of one trading unit without regard to any premium or discount that may result from concentrations of ownership of a financial instrument, possible tax ramifications, estimated transaction costs that may result from bulk sales or the relationship between various financial instruments. No readily available market exists for a significant portion of First Financial’s financial instruments. Fair value estimates for these instruments are based on current economic conditions, currency and interest rate characteristics, loss experience and other factors. Many of these estimates involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and cannot be determined with precision. Therefore, the calculated fair value estimates in many instances cannot be sustained by comparison to independent markets, and may not be realizable in a current sale of the instrument. In addition, changes in assumptions could significantly affect these fair value estimates. The following methods and assumptions were used by First Financial in estimating the fair value of these financial instruments.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For these short-term instruments, the carrying amounts are a reasonable estimate of their fair values.
Securities Held to Maturity
The fair value of securities classified as held to maturity is based on quoted prices for similar assets.
Nonmarketable Securities
The carrying amount of FHLB and Federal Reserve stock is used to approximate the fair value of these securities as these securities are not readily marketable, are recorded at cost (par value), and are evaluated for impairment based on the ultimate recoverability of the par value. First Financial considers positive and negative evidence, including the profitability and asset quality of the issuer, dividend payment history and recent redemption experience, when determining the ultimate recoverability of the par value. First Financial believes its investment in FHLB and Federal Reserve stock is ultimately recoverable at par.
Net Loans
The fair value of net loans is estimated based on discounted cash flows. The cash flows take into consideration current portfolio interest rates and repricing characteristics as well as assumptions relating to prepayment speeds. The discount rates take into consideration the current market interest rate environment, a credit risk component based on the credit characteristics of each loan portfolio, and a liquidity premium reflecting the liquidity or illiquidity of the market. The carrying amount of accrued interest approximates fair value.
Deposits
The fair value of core deposits, which include checking, savings and money market accounts, are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand as of the valuation date (i.e. their carrying amounts). Fair values for time deposits are based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows at current interest rates. The estimated fair value of deposits does not take into account the value of First Financial’s long-term relationships with depositors, commonly known as core deposit intangibles, which are separate intangible assets, and not considered financial instruments. The carrying amount of accrued interest approximates fair value.
Advances from FHLB and Long-Term Debt
The fair value of these financial instruments is estimated using observable market prices and by discounting future cash flows using current interest rates for similar financial instruments.
NOTE 7. Income Tax
The income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $4.2 million, compared with a $913 thousand benefit for the same period of the prior year. The quarter ended March 31, 2012 included a $2.1 million write-down of the state deferred tax asset in connection with First Federal’s conversion from a thrift to a state-chartered commercial bank due to a difference in South Carolina income tax laws for banks versus thrifts. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2012, excluding the deferred tax asset write-down, was 35.62%, compared with 40.08% for the same period of the prior year.
First Financial regularly monitors its net deferred tax assets, which totaled $879 thousand at March 31, 2012. First Financial considers the cumulative three-year pretax operating results as well as the timing, nature and amount of future taxable income, various plans to maximize the realization of deferred tax assets and taxable income within the carryback and carry forward periods, the reversal of taxable temporary differences as well as future events and uncertainties in making its determination of the realization of its net deferred tax asset. After evaluating all positive and negative evidence available as of March 31, 2012, First Financial concluded that it is more likely than not that it will be able to realize all remaining net deferred tax benefits and that a valuation allowance was not needed at March 31, 2012.
27
NOTE 8. Share-Based Payment Arrangements
First Financial has two share-based compensation plans from which new awards may be granted. These plans may issue qualified and non-qualified options, restricted stock awards, and stock appreciation rights to employees and nonemployee directors. First Financial also has four plans that currently have option grants outstanding, but no new issuances may be made since these plans have been abandoned. Any forfeited or expired option under the abandoned plans cannot be reissued. At March 31, 2012, there were 166,509 options which remained outstanding under the four abandoned plans. Stock options currently granted under the plans generally expire five years from the date of grant. Restrictions on non-vested stock generally lapse in three annual installments beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date.
Compensation expense for stock options is recognized in salaries and employee benefits in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. First Financial recorded a share-based compensation expense of $46 thousand and $124 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. First Financial recognized an income tax benefit of less than $100 thousand in each of the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011.

NOTE 9. Commitments and Contingencies
Loan Commitments
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to borrowers as long as there is no violation of any condition established by the commitment letter. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses. The majority of the commitments will be funded within a twelve month period. First Federal evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the borrower. Collateral held varies but primarily consists of residential or income producing commercial properties. Outstanding commitments on loans not yet closed include commitments issued to correspondent lenders and are principally commitments for loans on single-family residential and commercial property.
Standby Letters of Credit
Standby letters of credit represent First Federal’s obligations to a third party contingent on the failure of its customer to perform under the terms of an underlying contract with the third party or obligate First Federal to stand as surety for the benefit of the third party. The underlying contract may entail either financial or non-financial obligations and may involve such things as the customer’s delivery of merchandise, completion of a construction contract, release of a lien, or repayment of an obligation. Under the terms of a standby letter, drafts will generally be drawn only when the underlying event fails to occur as intended. First Federal can seek recovery from the borrower for the amounts paid. In addition, some of these standby letters of credit are collateralized. Commitments under standby letters of credit are usually for one year or less. As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, there was no recorded liability associated with these standby letters of credit.
The following table presents First Federal’s loan commitments.

Derivative Instruments
First Federal utilizes derivatives as part of its risk management strategy in conducting its mortgage activities. These instruments may consist of financial forward and future contracts, when-issued securities and options written and purchased. A derivative is a financial instrument that derives its cash flows, and therefore its value, by reference to an underlying instrument, index or referenced interest rate. First Federal does not elect hedge accounting treatment for any of its derivative transactions; consequently, changes in fair value, both gains and losses, of the instrument are recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Operations in mortgage and other loan income.
Derivative contracts related to MSRs are used to offset changes in fair value and are written in amounts referred to as notional amounts. Notional amounts only provide the basis for calculating payments between counterparties and do not represent amounts to be exchanged between the parties, and are not a measure of financial risk. On March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, First Federal had derivative financial instruments outstanding with notional amounts totaling $52.5 million and $48.0 million, respectively. The estimated net fair value of the open contracts related to the MSRs was a loss of $166 thousand at March 31, 2012 compared to a gain of $354 thousand at December 31, 2011.

NOTE 10. Subsequent Events
Liberty Savings Bank Branch Acquisition
On April 20, 2012, First Federal consummated its acquisition of five retail banking branches located in Hilton Head, South Carolina market from Liberty Savings Bank, FSB. The deposits associated with these branches totaled $115.6 million and consisted predominately of core transaction and savings accounts. Additionally, First Federal purchased $21.0 million in loans, primarily residential mortgage and home equity lines of credit.
Plantation Federal Bank FDIC-Assisted Transaction
On April 27, 2012, First Federal assumed all deposits and substantially all assets and certain other liabilities of Plantation Federal Bank (“Plantation”), a full-service community bank headquartered in Pawleys Island, South Carolina, from the FDIC, as receiver for Plantation (the “Transaction”). Planation operated three branches along the coast of South Carolina under the name of Plantation Fedral and three branches in the Greenville South Carolina market under the name of First Savers Bank.
The Transaction was made pursuant to a purchase and assumption agreement, in the FDIC’s customary form, entered into by First Federal and the FDIC as of April 27, 2012 (the “P&A Agreement”). The Transaction included all six branch offices of Plantation, which now operate as branches of First Federal.
Based on December 31, 2011 reported balances, Plantation had total assets of $486.4 million, including loans of $348.6 million, and total deposits of $440.5 million. The assets were acquired at an asset discount bid of $47.0 million and the deposits were acquired with no premium.
In connection with the Transaction, the FDIC made a closing payment to First Federal of $46.0 million, subject to customary post-closing adjustments based upon the final closing date balance sheet for Plantation.
The P&A Agreement includes a customary loss sharing agreement with the FDIC covering approximately $220 million of Plantation’s assets. First Federal will share in the losses on the asset pools (including commercial loans and foreclosed assets)
29
covered under the loss sharing agreement, but the FDIC is obligated to reimburse First Federal for 80% of all eligible losses with respect to covered assets, beginning with the first dollar of loss incurred through $55 million in losses. First Federal absorbs losses greater than $55 million up to $65 million. The FDIC will reimburse First Federal for 60% of all eligible losses in excess of $65 million. First Federal has a corresponding obligation to reimburse the FDIC according to the same arrangement for eligible recoveries with respect to covered assets. After the fifth anniversary of the Transaction (or earlier in certain circumstances), the FDIC has a right to recover a portion of its shared-loss reimbursements if losses on the covered assets are less than currently anticipated, as measured by a formula set forth in the P&A Agreement. The P&A Agreement generally provides for additional recovery sharing for an additional three years.
The FDIC has certain rights to withhold loss sharing payments if First Federal does not perform its obligations under the loss sharing agreement in accordance with its terms and to withdraw the loss share protection if certain significant transactions are effected without FDIC consent, some of which may be beyond First Financial’s control, including certain business combination transactions and sales of shares by First Financial’s shareholders that would result in a change in control under the Change in Bank Control Act.
Under the P&A Agreement, First Federal has options, exercisable for various defined periods, to acquire at fair market value any bank premises that were owned by, or assume any leases relating to bank premises leased by, Plantation and to assume or reject service provider contracts. First Federal is currently reviewing Plantation’s bank premises and related leases and other contracts.
The foregoing summary of the P&A Agreement (including the associated loss sharing agreement) is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the P&A Agreement, a copy of which is filed as an exhibit to this Form 10-Q and is incorporated herein by reference.

The following presents management’s discussion and analysis of First Financial Holdings, Inc. (“First Financial”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, including First Federal Bank (“First Federal”), a South Carolina-chartered commercial bank, with regard to their financial condition and results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012. It should be read in conjunction with the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes included elsewhere in this report and the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes contained in First Financial’s 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011. In addition, the following discussion and analysis should be read together with “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” contained in First Financial’s 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which contains important additional information that is necessary to understand First Financial and its financial condition and results of operations for the periods covered by this report.
All of First Financial’s electronic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including the Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K and other documents filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, are accessible at no cost on First Financial’s website,www.firstfinancialholdings.com. The information on the website does not constitute a part of this report and is not incorporated herein by reference. First Financial’s filings are also available through the SEC’s website atwww.sec.gov.
Change in Fiscal Year
On December 20, 2011, First Financial’s Board of Directors approved an amendment to Article VIII of First Financial’s bylaws to change First Financial’s fiscal year end from September 30th to December 31st of each year. The change was effective December 31, 2011 and the current fiscal year began on January 1, 2012 and will end on December 31, 2012. The change in fiscal year end resulted in a three-month transition period which began on October 1, 2011 and ended on December 31, 2011. As a result of its change in fiscal year, First Financial filed a Transition Report on Form 10-Q with the SEC on February 9, 2012 which covered the transition period from October 1, 2011 to December 31, 2011.
Discontinued Operations
As a result of First Financial’s sale of its insurance agency subsidiary, First Southeast Insurance Services, Inc., which was completed on June 1, 2011, and its managing general insurance agency subsidiary, Kimbrell Insurance Group, Inc., which was completed on September 30, 2011, the financial condition, operating results, and the gain or loss on the sales, net of transaction costs and taxes, for these subsidiaries have been segregated from the financial condition and operating results of First Financial’s continuing operations throughout this document and, as such, are presented as discontinued operations. While all prior periods have been revised retrospectively to align with this treatment, these changes do not affect First Financial’s reported consolidated financial condition or operating results for any of the prior periods.
Forward-Looking Statements
Statements in this report that are not statements of historical fact, including without limitation, statements that include terms such as “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “forecasts,” “intends,” “plans,” “targets,” “potentially,” “probably,” “projects,” “outlook,” or similar expressions or future conditional verbs such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “would,” or “could” constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements
32
regarding First Financial’s future financial and operating results, plans, objectives, expectations and intentions involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond First Financial’s control or are subject to change. No forward-looking statement is a guarantee of future performance and actual results could differ materially from those anticipated by the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to:
|
|
• | A large portion of First Financial’s loan portfolio is secured by residential and commercial real estate. Continued deterioration in residential and commercial real estate values could lead to additional losses, which may cause First Financial’s net income to decline and could have a negative impact on its capital, financial condition, and results of operations. |
• | Repayment of First Financial’s commercial business loans is often dependent on the cash flows of the borrower, which may be unpredictable, and the collateral securing these loans may fluctuate in value. |
• | First Financial’s allowance for loan losses may not be sufficient to absorb losses in its loan portfolio. Additions to the allowance for loan losses may be required by increasing the provision for loan losses, which would cause net income to decline and could have a negative impact on First Financial’s capital and financial position. |
• | The recent negative developments in the financial industry, the domestic and international credit markets, and the economy in general may continue to adversely impact First Financial’s earnings and could increase its credit risk associated with the loan portfolios. |
• | First Financial’s business is predominately conducted throughout coastal South Carolina, as well as in the Florence, South Carolina and Wilmington, North Carolina markets; continuation of the economic downturn in First Financial’s primary market area could negatively impact its results of operations and its financial position. |
• | First Financial’s net interest income may decline based on the interest rate environment. |
• | First Financial may not be able to adequately anticipate and respond to changes in market interest rates. |
• | Further economic downturns may adversely affect First Financial’s investment securities portfolio and profitability. |
• | If First Financial is unable to continue to attract or retain core deposits, to obtain third party borrowings on favorable terms, or to have access to interbank or other liquidity sources, its cost of funds will increase, adversely affecting its ability to generate funds necessary for lending operations, reducing net interest margin and negatively affecting results of operations. |
• | Economic and other circumstances may require First Financial to raise capital at times or in amounts that are unfavorable. If First Financial has to issue shares of stock, they will dilute the percentage ownership interest of existing shareholders and may dilute the book value per share of common stock and adversely affect the terms on which First Financial may obtain additional capital. |
• | Government regulations and the terms of First Financial’s Series A Prefered Stock impose restrictions and obligations that may limit First Financial’s ability to pay or increase dividends, repurchase shares of preferred or common stock, and access the equity capital markets. |
• | If First Financial is unable or chooses not to redeem its Series A Preferred Stock within five years from the issuance date, the cost of this capital will increase. |
• | First Financial is subject to extensive regulation, which could restrict its activities, have an adverse impact on its operations, and impose financial requirements or limitations on the conduct of its business. |
• | Financial reform legislation enacted by the U.S. Congress, and further changes in regulation to which First Financial is exposed, will result in additional laws and regulations that are expected to increase costs of operations. |
• | Competition with other financial institutions may have an adverse effect on First Financial’s ability to retain and grow its client base, which could have a negative effect on financial condition and results of operations. |
• | First Financial may be adversely affected by the soundness of other financial institutions. |
• | First Financial depends on the accuracy and completeness of information about its clients and counterparties. |
• | The accuracy of First Financial’s financial statements and related disclosures could be affected because it is exposed to conditions or assumptions different from the judgments, assumptions, or estimates used in its critical accounting policies. |
• | First Financial’s potential inability to integrate companies it may acquire in the future could expose it to financial, execution, and operational risks that could negatively affect its financial condition and results of operations. Acquisitions may be dilutive to common shareholders and Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”)-assisted transactions have additional compliance risk that other acquisitions do not have. |
• | Negative public opinion regarding First Financial and the financial institutions industry generally could damage First Financial’s reputation and adversely impact earnings. |
• | First Financial is exposed to a possible loss of its senior management team and key employees. If First Financial were to lose key employees, it may experience a disruption in its relationships with certain customers. |
• | First Financial is party to various lawsuits incidental to its business. Litigation is subject to many uncertainties such that the expenses and ultimate exposure with respect to many of these matters cannot be ascertained. |
• | First Financial’s business continuity plans or data security systems could prove to be inadequate, resulting in a material interruption in, or disruption to, business and a negative impact on results of operations. |
• | First Financial’s controls and procedures may fail or be circumvented, which could have a material adverse effect on business, results of operations, and financial condition. |
• | First Financial’s stock price may be volatile, which could result in losses to our investors and litigation against First Financial. |
• | Future sales of First Financial’s stock by its shareholders or the perception that those sales could occur may cause its stock price to decline. |
• | Anti-takeover provisions could negatively impact First Financial shareholders. |
These factors also include risks and uncertainties detailed from time to time in First Financial’s other filings with the SEC, such as the risk factors listed in “Item 1A. Risk Factors,” of First Financial’s 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent Forms 10-Q (including this Form 10-Q). Other factors not currently anticipated may also materially and adversely affect First Financial’s results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition. There can be no assurance that future results will meet expectations. While First Financial believes that the forward-looking statements in this report are reasonable, the reader should not place undue
33
reliance on any forward-looking statement. In addition, these statements speak only as of the date made. First Financial does not undertake, and expressly disclaims any obligation to update or alter any statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law.
Critical Accounting Policies
First Financial’s Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and follow general practices within the financial institutions industry. Application of these principles requires management to make estimates, assumptions, and complex judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates, assumptions, and judgments are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements. Accordingly, as this information changes, the financial statements could reflect different estimates, assumptions, and judgments. Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. Certain policies inherently have a greater reliance on the use of estimates, assumptions, and judgments and, as such, have a greater possibility of producing results that could be materially different than originally reported. Estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change include those relating to the allowance for loan losses, fair value measurements, and income taxes. First Financial believes that these estimates and the related accounting policies are important to the portrayal of its financial condition and results of operations. Therefore, management considers them to be critical accounting policies and discusses them directly with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. First Financial’s accounting policies are more fully described in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in First Financial’s 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K, and the more significant assumptions and estimates made by management are more fully described in “Management’s Discussion and Results of Operations – Critical Accounting Policies” in First Financial’s 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K. For additional information regarding updates, see Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this report.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, this report includes non-GAAP financial measures such as the efficiency ratio, tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio, tangible common book value, and pre-tax pre-provision earnings. First Financial believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide additional information that is useful to investors in understanding its underlying performance, business and performance trends and such measures help facilitate performance comparisons with others in the banking industry. Non-GAAP measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied and are not audited. Readers should be aware of these limitations and should be cautious in their use of such measures. To mitigate these limitations, First Financial has procedures in place to ensure that these measures are calculated using the appropriate GAAP or regulatory components in their entirety and to ensure that its performance is properly reflected to facilitate consistent period-to-period comparisons. Although First Financial believes the above non-GAAP financial measures enhance investors’ understanding of its business and performance, these non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for GAAP basis financial measures. Investors should consider First Financial’s performance and financial condition as reported under GAAP and all other relevant information when assessing First Financial’s performance or financial condition.
The efficiency ratio measures the amount of revenue (defined as the sum of net interest income on a fully tax-equivalent basis and noninterest income) needed to cover noninterest expenses. In accordance with industry standards, First Financial believes that presenting net interest income on a taxable equivalent basis when calculating the efficiency ratio, using a 35% effective federal tax rate, allows comparability with industry peers by eliminating the effect of the differences in portfolios attributable to the proportion represented by both taxable and tax-exempt investments.
First Financial believes that the exclusion of goodwill and other intangible assets facilitates the comparison of results for ongoing business operations. The tangible common equity (“TCE”) ratio and tangible common book value (“TBV”) have become a focus of some investors, analysts and banking regulators. Management believes these measures may assist in analyzing First Financial’s capital position absent the effects of intangible assets and preferred stock. Because TCE and TBV are not formally defined by GAAP or codified in federal banking regulations, these measures are considered to be non-GAAP financial measures. However, analysts and banking regulators may assess First Financial’s capital adequacy using TCE or TBV and, therefore, management believes that it is useful to provide investors the ability to assess its capital adequacy on the same basis.
First Financial believes that pre-tax pre-provision earnings are a useful measure in assessing its core operating performance, particularly during times of economic stress. This measurement, as defined by management, represents total revenue (net interest income plus noninterest income) less noninterest expense. As recent results for the banking industry demonstrate, credit write-downs, loan charge-offs, and related provisions for loan losses can vary significantly from period to period, making a measure that helps isolate the impact of credit costs on profitability important to investors.
The following table presents the calculation of these non-GAAP measures for the past five quarters.

Charter Conversion
On February 3, 2012, First Financial received approval from the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve (the “Federal Reserve”) to convert from a savings and loan holding company to a bank holding company and First Federal received approval to become a member of the Federal Reserve System. On February 22, 2012 First Federal (formerly known as First Federal Savings and Loan Association of Charleston) converted from a federal savings and loan association to a South Carolina-chartered commercial bank and became a member of the Federal Reserve System. In connection with First Federal’s conversion, First Financial registered with the Federal Reserve as a bank holding company. As a result of the charter conversion and membership in the Federal Reserve System, the South Carolina State Board of Financial Institutions and the Federal Reserve serves as First Federal’s primary regulators. The Federal Reserve also serves as First Financial’s primary regulator.
As a result of First Federal’s charter conversion and Federal Reserve membership, First Federal is subject to Federal Reserve Supervisory Letter SR 91-17, which provides application and supervision standards for de novo state member banks and converting thrifts. The guidance includes standards for senior management and directors, policies, cash flows between the bank and the holding company, and capital levels, among other things. With respect to capital levels, the guidance provides that de novo state member banks and converting thrifts maintain a Tier 1 leverage capital ratio of 9% for the first three years as a state member bank unless an exception is granted. First Federal had a Tier 1 leverage capital ratio of 9.00% at March 31, 2012.
Subsequent Events
Liberty Savings Bank Branch Acquisition
On April 20, 2012, First Federal consummated its acquisition of five retail banking branches located in Hilton Head, South Carolina market from Liberty Savings Bank, FSB. The deposits associated with these branches totaled $115.6 million
35
and consisted predominately of core transaction and savings accounts. Additionally, First Federal purchased $21.0 million in loans, primarily residential mortgage and home equity lines of credit.
Plantation Federal Bank FDIC-Assisted Transaction
On April 27, 2012, First Federal assumed all deposits and substantially all assets and certain other liabilities of Plantation Federal Bank (“Plantation”), a full-service community bank headquartered in Pawleys Island, South Carolina, from the FDIC, as receiver for Plantation (the “Transaction”). Plantation operated three branches along the coast of South Carolina under the name of Plantation Federal and three branches in the Greeenville, South Carolina market under the name of First Savers Bank.
The Transaction was made pursuant to a purchase and assumption agreement, in the FDIC’s customary form, entered into by First Federal and the FDIC as of April 27, 2012 (the “P&A Agreement”). The Transaction included all six branch offices of Plantation, which now operate as branches of First Federal.
Based on December 31, 2011 reported balances, Plantation had total assets of $486.4 million, including loans of $348.6 million, and total deposits of $440.5 million. The assets were acquired at an asset discount bid of $47.0 million and the deposits were acquired with no premium.
In connection with the Transaction, the FDIC made a closing payment to First Federal of $46.0 million, subject to customary post-closing adjustments based upon the final closing date balance sheet for Plantation.
The P&A Agreement includes a customary loss sharing agreement with the FDIC covering approximately $220 million of Plantation’s assets. First Federal will share in the losses on the asset pools (including commercial loans and foreclosed assets) covered under the loss sharing agreement, but the FDIC is obligated to reimburse First Federal for 80% of all eligible losses with respect to covered assets, beginning with the first dollar of loss incurred through $55 million in losses. First Federal absorbs losses greater than $55 million up to $65 million. The FDIC will reimburse First Federal for 60% of all eligible losses in excess of $65 million. First Federal has a corresponding obligation to reimburse the FDIC according to the same arrangement for eligible recoveries with respect to covered assets. After the fifth anniversary of the Transaction (or earlier in certain circumstances), the FDIC has a right to recover a portion of its shared-loss reimbursements if losses on the covered assets are less than currently anticipated, as measured by a formula set forth in the P&A Agreement. The P&A Agreement generally provides for additional recovery sharing for an additional three years.
The FDIC has certain rights to withhold loss sharing payments if First Federal does not perform its obligations under the loss sharing agreement in accordance with its terms and to withdraw the loss share protection if certain significant transactions are effected without FDIC consent, some of which may be beyond First Financial’s control, including certain business combination transactions and sales of shares by First Financial’s shareholders that would result in a change in control under the Change in Bank Control Act.
Under the P&A Agreement, First Federal has options, exercisable for various defined periods, to acquire at fair market value any bank premises that were owned by, or assume any leases relating to bank premises leased by, Plantation and to assume or reject service provider contracts. First Federal is currently reviewing Plantation’s bank premises and related leases and other contracts.
The foregoing summary of the P&A Agreement (including the associated loss sharing agreement) is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the P&A Agreement, a copy of which is filed as an exhibit to this Form 10-Q and is incorporated herein by reference.
Results of Operations
First Financial recorded net income of $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012, compared with $15.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2011 and a net loss of $(430) thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The quarter ended March 31, 2012 included a $2.1 million write-down of the state deferred tax asset in connection with First Federal’s conversion from a thrift to a state-chartered commercial bank related to different state income tax laws for banks and thrifts. The quarter ended December 31, 2011 included a $20.8 million pre-tax gain ($12.7 million after-tax) from a bulk loan sale. After the effect of the preferred stock dividend and related accretion, First Financial reported net income (loss) available to common shareholders of $770 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2012, compared with $14.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2011 and $(1.4) million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. Diluted net income (loss) per common share was $0.05 for the quarter ended March 31, 2012, compared with $0.88 for the prior quarter and $(0.08) for the same quarter last year.

1 | Interest income used in the average rate calculation includes the tax equivalent adjustment of $182 thousand, and $144 thousand for the quarters ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, calculated based on a federal tax rate of 35%. |
2 | Average balances of loans include loans held for sale and nonaccrual loans. |
3 | Equates to total cost of funds of 1.15% and 1.50% for the quarters ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. |
4 | Net interest margin exceeds the interest spread due to noninterest-bearing funding sources supporting earning assets. |
The slight increase in net interest margin as the decrease in the rate on interest-bearing liabilities slightly exceeded the decrease in the yield on earning assets primarily due to the growth in core deposits. The yield on securities held to majority increased over the prior year quarter due to accelerating the accretion on a called security, however this had a negligible impact on the yield on total earning assets. The decrease in net interest income was primarily the result of a decline in average earning assets due to the bulk loan sale, combined with the decline in net loans due to the generally lower loan demand from creditworthy borrowers and loan charge-offs. The decline in loans was partially offset by an increase in investment securities.
Net interest income can be analyzed in terms of the impact of changes in volume as well as changes to interest rates. The following table presents changes in interest income, interest expense and net interest income due to volume and rate variances for major categories of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.

Note: The change in interest not solely due to changes in volume or rate has been allocated in proportion to the absolute dollar amounts of the change in each. | ||||||||||
The decrease in net interest income reflects volume and rate variances that were negative in the aggregate. The negative volume variance was primarily the result of a decline in loan balances, partially offset by an increase in securities available for sale and a decline in time deposit balances. The decrease in the loan portfolio was primarily the result of the bulk loan sale as well as declines due to generally lower loan demand from creditworthy borrowers and loan payments and paydowns. The decrease in time deposits was primarily the result of an ongoing strategy to reduce maturing high rate retail and wholesale time deposits due to lower funding needs and a shift to core deposits. The negative rate variance was primarily the result of the continued low interest rate environment, as reductions in deposit interest expense were substantially offset by reductions in interest and dividends on investments. The decrease in interest expense was primarily the result of First Financial’s ongoing strategy to shift funding from maturing high rate deposits to lower cost core deposits, including noninterest-bearing deposits. The decrease in interest on investments was primarily the result of replacing maturing investment securities with new purchases at considerably lower yields.
Provision for Loan Losses
After determining what First Financial believes is an adequate allowance for loan losses based on the estimated risk inherent in the loan portfolio, the provision for loan losses is calculated based on the net effect of the change in the allowance for loan losses and net charge-offs. The provision for loan losses was $6.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2012, compared with $12.7 million for the same quarter last year. The decrease was primarily the result of the lower charge-offs and continued stabilization in historical loss trends and credit metrics through March 31, 2012. Some of the charge-offs for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 had a specific reserve established in previous quarters. See the “Asset Quality” and “Allowance for Loan Losses” sections below for additional discussion regarding the calculation of the allowance for loan losses and information related to loan charge-offs.

The increase was primarily the result of higher mortgage and other loan income due to higher residential mortgage origination levels related to the continued low interest rate environment and the addition of correspondent lenders as well as higher service charges on deposit accounts due to higher transaction-related revenue from increases in both volume and fees partially offset by the gain on the sale of one security during the March 31, 2011 quarter.

NM - Not meaningful. |
The decrease in noninterest expense was primarily the result of lower salaries and employee benefits FDIC insurance and regulatory fees; and advertising and marketing expenses, partially offset by higher OREO expenses, net other loan expense, and other expense. The decrease in salaries and employee benefits was primarily the result of compensation agreements with retiring executives which entered into during the prior year quarter. The decrease in FDIC insurance and regulatory fees was primarily the result of the new assessment methodology implemented by the FDIC during 2011. The decrease in advertising and marketing was primarily the result of the rolling out the new First Federal branch through media campaigns during the prior year quarter. The increase in OREO expenses, net was primarily the result of reclassifying $1.3 million of OREO valuation adjustments and expense reimbursements on foreclosed properties during the prior year quarter as they became eligible for claims to the FDIC through the loss share agreement, partially offset by lower valuation adjustments on properties held in the current quarter. The increase in other loan expense was primarily the result of higher foreclosure related expenses. The increase in other expense was primarily the result of higher processing fees related to a new reward program for deposit customers.
Income Taxes
The income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $4.2 million, compared with a $913 thousand benefit for the same period of the prior year. The quarter ended March 31, 2012 included a $2.1 million write-down of the state deferred tax asset in connection with First Federal’s conversion from a thrift to a state-chartered commercial bank due to a difference in South Carolina income tax laws for banks versus thrifts. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2012, excluding the deferred tax asset write-down was 35.62%, compared with 40.08% for the same period of the prior year. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily the result of the proportion of tax-exempt income and other deductions as compared with total pre-tax income (or pre-tax loss for the three months ended March 31, 2011) as the absolute dollar amount of adjustments was essentially unchanged from the same period of the prior year. As a result of First Federal’s conversion from a thrift to a bank, the basis for calculating taxes for South Carolina changed from pre-tax income (which incorporated permanent tax differences) at a rate of 6% to book net income (after applicable federal taxes) at a rate of 4.5%.
First Financial regularly monitors its net deferred tax assets, which totaled $879 thousand at March 31, 2012. First Financial considers the cumulative three-year pretax operating results as well as the timing, nature and amount of future taxable income, various plans to maximize the realization of deferred tax assets and taxable income within the carryback and carryforward periods, the reversal of taxable temporary differences as well as future events and uncertainties in making its determination of the realization of its net deferred tax asset. After evaluating all positive and negative evidence available as of March 31, 2012, First Financial concluded that it is more likely than not that it will be able to realize its net deferred tax benefits and that a valuation allowance was not needed at March 31, 2012.
Financial Condition
Total assets at March 31, 2012 were $3.1 billion, essentially unchanged from December 31, 2011 and a decrease of $156.5 million or 4.7% from March 31, 2011. The decline was primarily the result of a bulk loan sale with an aggregate book balance of $155.3 million, which occurred during the fourth calendar quarter of 2011, as well as the sales of First Southeast Insurance Services Inc. and Kimbrell Insurance Group, Inc. during 2011, partially offset by an increase in total investment securities and loans held for sale.
39
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents totaled $63.5 million at March 31, 2012, a decrease of $13.2 million or 17.2% from December 31, 2011 and essentially unchanged from March 31, 2011. The decrease was the result of normal fluctuations in transaction accounts and a higher volume of cash items in process on the last business day of the December 31, 2011 quarter.
Investment Securities
Investment securities at March 31, 2012 totaled $500.3 million, an increase of $42.6 million or 9.3% over December 31, 2011 and an increase of $53.9 million or 12.1% over March 31, 2011. The increases were primarily the result of purchasing mortgage-backed agency securities and Federal Reserve stock, partially offset by normal cash flows and prepayments received during the quarter. See Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Total loans at March 31, 2012 decreased $29.9 million or 1.3% from December 31, 2011 and decreased $204.3 million or 8.0% from March 31, 2011. The decrease from December 31, 2011 was primarily the result of declines in the commercial real estate, commercial land, and home equity loan portfolios. The decrease from March 31, 2011 was primarily the result of the bulk loan sale, partially offset by increases in residential loans retained in the portfolio as a result of higher originations during late 2011. For both comparative periods, continued lower loan demand from creditworthy borrowers, charge-offs, transfers of nonperforming loans to OREO, and paydowns due to normal borrower activity also contributed to the overall reduction in loans.
At March 31, 2012, loans held for sale totaled $52.3 million, an increase of $4.0 million or 8.4% over December 31, 2011 and an increase of $32.9 million over March 31, 2011. The increases in residential mortgage loans to be sold in the secondary market over both prior periods were primarily the result of higher borrower demand due to the low interest rate environment. These loans generally settle in 45 to 60 days.
Included in the portfolio loans table above are loans covered under a loss share agreement with the FDIC (“covered loans”), as discussed in Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The following table provides a summary of all the covered loans as well as several credit metrics by loan type.

Asset Quality
National credit conditions have contributed to the historical high credit costs realized by the financial industry over the last several years. The markets in which First Financial operates are not immune to these conditions, which have been a factor in the higher levels of nonperforming assets and charge-offs First Financial has reported since fiscal 2009.
Loan Monitoring
Management monitors the loan portfolio on a regular basis to determine where risk mitigation efforts can be utilized to assist in preventing or mitigating future losses. An element of the credit risk management process is monthly loan reviews to determine risk levels and exposure to loss. The monthly loan review process evaluates all commercial loans greater than $200,000 that are more than 30 days past due and all criticized and classified loans over $500,000. The depth of the review varies by asset type, depending on the nature of those assets and their risk characteristics. While certain assets may represent a substantial investment and warrant individual reviews, other assets may have less risk because the asset size is small, the risk is spread over a large number of obligors or the obligations are well collateralized and further analysis of individual assets would expand the review process without measurable improvement to risk assessment. Asset types with these characteristics may be reviewed as a total homogenous portfolio (as is the case with residential and consumer loans) on the basis of risk indicators such as delinquency or credit rating. In addition, a formal review process may be conducted on individual assets within the homogenous pool that represent potential risk. For the larger credits, action plans to address the credit weaknesses are presented and approved plans are monitored. Loan reviews emphasize the borrower’s and guarantor’s global cash flow analysis as a key determinant in the credit quality risk rating and to identify deterioration in the financial condition of the borrowers that may limit their ability to continue to service their debt or to carry their obligations to contractual term. In addition, reviews may include evaluations of collateral values as determined necessary based on credit policies and credit risk rating. First Federal’s policy is to update collateral appraisals on problem loans at least annually, or more frequently if deterioration in market value is observed.
Delinquent Loans
The following table presents loans that were past due 30-89 days which were not otherwise on nonaccrual status. The table includes covered loans which became delinquent since acquisition and which were not acquired with deteriorated credit quality and accounted for in accordance with ASC 310-30. Details of delinquent covered loans are presented in the “Loans Covered Under Loss Share Agreement” table in the “Loans” section above.

Total delinquent loans at March 31, 2012 decreased $3.7 million or 20.3% from December 31, 2011. The decreases in delinquent residential and consumer loans were primarily the result of a seasonal increase normally experienced in the fourth calendar quarter each year. The increase in delinquent commercial loans was primarily the result of two loans, both of which are in the process of resolution.
Nonperforming Assets
Nonperforming assets include nonaccrual loans, loans delinquent 90 days or more and still accruing, restructured loans still accruing, and other repossessed assets acquired through foreclosure. With the exception of the credit card portfolio, loans are placed on nonaccrual status when they become 90 days delinquent. In addition, loans that were not delinquent in excess of 90 days but exhibited doubt as to their ability to repay all contractual principal and interest have been classified as impaired under ASC 310-10-35, as discussed further below, and placed on nonaccrual status.
The following table presents the composition of nonperforming assets. The table includes covered loans which have migrated to nonaccrual status since acquisition and which were not acquired with deteriorated credit quality and accounted for in accordance with ASC 310-30. Loans classified as nonperforming at acquisition are not included below since these loans were adjusted to fair value, which included estimates of credit loss at acquisition date. Details of nonperforming covered loans are presented in the “Loans Covered Under Loss Share Agreement” table in the “Loans” section above.

Total nonperforming assets at March 31, 2012 increased $3.5 million or 5.2% over December 31, 2011. The increase was primarily the result of higher nonperforming residential loans due to five accounts totaling $1.8 million. While total nonperforming commercial loans decreased from the linked quarter, nonperforming commercial real estate loans increased due to two accounts totaling $3.4 million. Total nonperforming consumer loans were essentially unchanged from the prior quarter as the increase in nonperforming home equity loans due to six impaired loans totaling $1.7 million was more than offset by decreases in the other consumer categories. Covered nonperforming loans decreased $1.9 million from December 31, 2011 to $15.6 million at March 31, 2012. Covered OREO totaled $11.4 million at March 31, 2012, an increase of $3.8 million over December 31, 2011.
First Federal accounts for certain loan modifications or restructurings as a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”). In general, the modification or restructuring of a loan is considered a TDR if, for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower’s financial difficulties, a concession is granted to the borrower that First Federal would not otherwise consider. Concessions may relate to the contractual interest rate, maturity date, payment structure of the note or other actions. As part of First Federal’s action plan for individual loan relationships, First Federal may restructure loan terms to assist borrowers facing challenges in the current economic environment. See Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional details on TDRs.

Allowance for Loan Losses
First Federal maintains an allowance for loan losses (the “allowance”) which is management’s best estimate of probable losses inherent in the outstanding loan portfolio. The allowance is periodically decreased by actual loan charge-offs, net of recoveries, and is increased as necessary by charges to current period operating results through the provision for loan losses. The allowance is based on management’s continuing review and credit risk evaluation of the loan portfolio. The factors that are considered in determining the level of the allowance include First Federal’s assessment of current economic conditions, the composition of the loan portfolio, historical trends in the loan portfolio, historical loss experience by categories of loans, ongoing loan monitoring and
44
reviews, impaired loan values and trends, the value of underlying collateral, concentrations of credit, regulatory examination results, and other factors indicative of potential losses remaining in the portfolio.
A committee consisting of members of lending management, credit risk management, and accounting meets at least quarterly with executive management to review the credit quality of the loan portfolios and to evaluate the allowance. First Federal utilizes an external firm to review the loan quality and reports the results of its reviews to executive management and Audit Committee of Board of Directors on a quarterly basis. Such reviews also assist management in validating the accuracy of the credit risk rating process and establishing the level of the allowance.
The portfolio evaluation and allowance calculation process segregates the allowance into two components, allocated and unallocated, as appropriate. To arrive at the allocated component of the allowance, First Federal combines estimates of the allowance needed for loans analyzed individually and on a pooled basis. The result of the calculation may determine that there is an unallocated portion. As of March 31, 2012, there was no unallocated portion in the allowance for loan losses, In addition to being used to categorize risk, First Federal’s internal credit risk rating system is used to determine the allocated allowance for the loan portfolio. Loans are segmented into categories for analysis based in part on the risk profile inherent in each category. Loans are further segmented into risk rating pools within each category to appropriately recognize changes in inherent risk.
A primary component of determining appropriate reserve factors in the allowance calculation is the actual loss history tracked by major loan category. First Federal currently estimates the losses inherent in the loan portfolio based on a rolling eighteen month historical loss period to evaluate the allowance. The loss history is reviewed by loan sector along with more recent trends, such as one-year and the most recent quarter historical loss ratios to determine the direction and anticipation of probable future losses. First Federal’s policy is to adjust the loss history with internal and external qualitative factors at each period end, as appropriate, given the facts available at the time. The following qualitative factors that are likely to cause estimated credit losses in First Federal’s existing portfolio to differ from historical loss experience include:
|
|
• | Changes in lending policies and procedures; |
• | Changes in regional and local economic and business conditions and developments that affect the collectability of the portfolio; |
• | Changes in the volume and severity of past due loans, the volume of nonaccrual loans, and the volume and severity of classified loans; |
• | Changes in the quality of First Federal’s loan review system; and |
• | Changes in the value of underlying collateral for collateral-dependent loans. |
Upon completion of the qualitative adjustments, the allowance is allocated to the components of the portfolio based on the adjusted loss rates. The portion of the allowance that is allocated to impaired loans is determined by estimating the loss inherent in each problem credit through a discounted cash flow methodology or based on the value of the underlying collateral.
The following table sets forth the changes in the allowance.

The allowance for loan losses was $50.8 million at March 31, 2012 or 2.16% of total loans, compared with $53.5 million or 2.24% of total loans at December 31, 2011 and $85.1 million or 3.33% of total loans at March 31, 2011. The decreases were primarily the result of the continued improvement in historical loss factors and stable credit metrics since the bulk loan sale in October 2011. The allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2012 was 2.28% of loans excluding covered loans, and represented 1.48 times coverage of the non-covered nonperforming loans.
First Federal believes that it uses relevant information available to make determinations about the allowance and that it has established its existing allowance in accordance with GAAP. Management and the Board of Directors have implemented appropriate policies surrounding loan loss identification, loan monitoring and allowance for loan loss methodologies, have consistently applied processes implemented, and have determined that the controls in place are adequate to ensure that the allowance is appropriate at each balance sheet date. If circumstances differ substantially from the assumptions used in making determinations, adjustments to the allowance may be necessary and results of operations could be affected. Because events affecting borrowers and collateral charge-offs cannot be predicted with certainty, there can be no assurance that increases to the allowance will not be necessary should the quality of any loans deteriorate. Management believes that the allowance is adequate and sufficient for the risk inherent in the portfolio as of each balance sheet date. Further, management believes that the allowance is appropriate under GAAP for all periods presented.

Other Assets
Other assets totaled $95.7 million at March 31, 2012, a decrease of $3.2 million or 3.2% from December 31, 2011 and a decrease of $13.2 million or 12.1% from March 31, 2011. The decrease from December 31, 2011 was primarily the result of current tax adjustments as well as a $2.1 million write-down of the state deferred tax asset in connection with First Federal’s conversion from a thrift to a state-chartered commercial bank due to a difference in South Carolina tax laws for banks versus thrifts. The decrease from March 31, 2011 was primarily the result of the above mentioned factors as well as federal tax refunds received during the twelve month period and reductions in OREO levels.
Deposits
Deposits totaled $2.3 billion at March 31, 2012, an increase of $25.3 million or 1.1% over December 31, 2011 and a decrease of $80.3 million or 3.4% from March 31, 2011. Core deposits, which include checking, savings, and money market accounts, totaled $1.3 billion at March 31, 2012, an increase of $74.7 million or 6.1% over December 31, 2011 and an increase of $134.2 million or 11.4% over March 31, 2011. The increase over December 31, 2011 was primarily the result of a net addition in the number of deposit accounts as well as a seasonal fluctuation. The increase over March 31, 2011 was primarily the result of new retail deposit products introduced during 2011 as well as several marketing initiatives during the last twelve months to attract and retain core deposits. Time deposits at March 31, 2012 totaled $958.1 million, a decrease of $49.4 million or 4.9% from December 31, 2011 and a decrease of $214.5 million or 18.3% from March 31, 2011. The decreases were primarily the result of a planned reduction in maturing high rate retail and wholesale time deposits and lower funding needs relative to asset growth during the last twelve months.
Borrowed Funds
Borrowed funds are comprised of advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) and long-term debt. Borrowings totaled $580.2 million at March 31, 2012, a decrease of $28.0 million or 4.6% from December 31, 2011 and a decrease of $28.5 million or 4.7% from March 31, 2011. The decreases were primarily the result of a shift in funding mix due to the growth of core deposits.
Capital
Shareholders’ equity at March 31, 2012 was $278.0 million, essentially unchanged from December 31, 2011 and a decrease of $33.5 million or 10.7% from March 31, 2011. The decrease was primarily the result of net operating results during the last twelve months combined with a reduction in accumulated other comprehensive income during the period related to investment securities valuations. First Financial and First Federal’s regulatory capital ratios are in excess of “well-capitalized” minimums, as presented in the following table.

As a result of First Federal’s charter conversion and Federal Reserve membership, First Federal is subject to Federal Reserve Supervisory Letter SR 91-17, which provides guidance that de novo state member banks and converting thrifts maintain a Tier 1 leverage capital ratio of 9% for the first three years as a member bank unless an exception is granted. First Federal had a Tier 1 leverage capital ratio of 9.00% at March 31, 2012.
On March 29, 2012, the U.S. Treasury completed the sale of its $65 million Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A (“preferred stock”) investment in First Financial to private investors through a registered public offering at $873.51 per share. There was no impact to First Financial’s financial condition or operating results due to the transaction. On April 30, 2012, First Financial declared a quarterly cash dividend of $12.50 per preferred share payable on May 15, 2012 to preferred shareholders of record as of May 5, 2012.
On April 30, 2012, First Financial declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.05 per common share, payable on May 29, 2012 to common shareholders of record as of May 14, 2012.
Contractual Obligations and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Contractual obligations and off-balance sheet arrangements are described in “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in First Financial’s 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K. There have been no material changes to those obligations or arrangements outside the ordinary course of business. See Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Liquidity
First Federal Liquidity
An important component of First Federal’s asset/liability structure is the level of liquidity available to meet the needs of its customers and creditors. First Federal’s primary sources of funds consist of retail and commercial deposits, borrowings from the FHLB and Federal Reserve, other short term borrowings, principal repayments on loans and cash flows on investment securities, the sale of loans and securities, and brokered deposits. First Federal’s desired level of liquidity is determined by management in conjunction with the Asset/Liability Committee (“ALCO”) of First Federal. The level of liquidity is based on management’s strategic direction, commitments to make loans and the ALCO’s assessment of First Federal’s ability to generate funds. Management believes First Federal has sufficient liquidity to meet future funding needs.
As of March 31, 2012, First Federal had the capacity to borrow an additional $793.6 million with the FHLB of Atlanta, the Federal Reserve, and through federal funds lines with three unaffiliated banks. None of the federal funds lines had outstanding balances at March 31, 2012.
First Financial Liquidity
As a holding company, First Financial conducts its business through its subsidiaries. First Financial is not subject to any regulatory liquidity requirements. Potential sources for First Financial’s payment of principal and interest on its borrowings, preferred and common stock dividends and future funding needs include dividends from First Federal and other subsidiaries, payments from existing cash reserves, sales of marketable securities, and additional borrowings or stock offerings. Potential uses of First Financial’s cash and cash equivalents include divided and interest payments, operating expenses, or capital contributions to its subsidiaries including First Federal. As of March 31, 2012, First Financial had cash and cash equivalents of $35.9 million, compared with $39.0 million at December 31, 2011. The decrease was primarily the result of quarterly dividend payments to preferred and common shareholders. In April 2012, the Board of Directors approved a $10.0 million downstream of capital to First Federal to support recent acquisition activities.
Asset and Liability Management
First Federal’s treasury function manages the wholesale segments of the balance sheet, including investments, purchased funds, long-term debt and derivatives. Management’s objective is to achieve the maximum level of stable earnings over the long term, while controlling the level of interest rate risk, credit risk, market risk and liquidity risk, and optimizing capital utilization. Market risk reflects the risk of economic loss resulting from adverse changes in market price and interest rates. This risk of loss can be reflected in diminished current market values and/or reduced potential net interest income in future periods. First Federal’s market risk arises primarily from interest rate risk inherent in its lending, deposit-gathering, and other funding activities. The structure of its loan, investment, deposit, and borrowing portfolios is such that a significant change in interest rates may adversely impact net market values and net interest income. In managing the investment portfolio to achieve its stated objective, First Federal invests predominately in agency securities, agency and private label mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed and collateralized debt securities including trust preferred securities, corporate bonds and municipal bonds. Treasury strategies and activities are overseen by First Federal’s ALCO and Investment Committee. ALCO activities are summarized and reviewed quarterly with the Board of Directors.
Interest Rate Risk
The nature of the banking business, which involves paying interest on deposits at varying rates and terms and charging interest on loans at other rates and terms, creates interest rate risk. As a result, net interest margin, earnings and the market value of assets and liabilities are subject to fluctuations arising from the movement of interest rates. First Federal manages several forms of interest rate risk, including asset/liability mismatch, basis risk and prepayment risk. An objective of First Federal’s asset/liability management policy is to maintain a balanced risk profile so that variations to net interest income stay within policy limits. A sudden and substantial increase or decrease in interest rates may adversely impact earnings to the extent that the interest rates on
47
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities do not change at the same speed, to the same degree or on the same basis. Asset/liability management is the process by which First Federal evaluates and changes, when appropriate, the mix, maturity and pricing of assets and liabilities in an attempt to reduce a materially adverse impact on earnings resulting from the direction, frequency, and magnitude of change in market interest rates. Although the net interest income of any financial institution is perceived as being vulnerable to fluctuations in interest rates, management has attempted to maintain this vulnerability within board limits.
First Federal’s prepayment risk arises from the loans originated and investment securities purchased in which the underlying assets are real estate secured mortgage loans and may payoff prior to their contractual maturities. Both of these types of assets are subject to principal reduction due to principal prepayments resulting from borrowers’ elections to refinance the underlying mortgages based on market and other conditions. Prepayment rate projections utilize actual prepayment speed experience and available market information on similar instruments. The prepayment rates form the basis for income recognition of premiums or discounts on the related assets. Changes in prepayment estimates may cause the earnings recognized on these assets to vary over the term that the assets are held, creating volatility in the net interest margin. Prepayment rate assumptions are monitored and updated monthly to reflect actual activity and the most recent market projections.
First Federal’s ALCO has established policies and monitors results to manage interest rate risk and utilizes measures such as gap analysis, which is a measurement of the differences between interest-sensitive assets and interest-sensitive liabilities repricing for a particular time period and includes loan prepayment assumptions. Particular assets and liabilities, such as adjustable rate mortgages, are also evaluated for the manner in which changes in interest rates or selected indices may affect their repricing. Asset/liability modeling is performed to assess varying interest rate and balance sheet mix assumptions. First Federal adjusts its interest rate sensitivity position primarily through decisions on the pricing, maturity, and marketing of particular deposit and loan products and by decisions regarding the structure of maturities of FHLB advances and other borrowings or wholesale funding options.
Based on gap analysis, rate-sensitive assets repricing within one year exceeded rate-sensitive liabilities repricing within one year by $197.2 million or 6.27% of total assets as of March 31, 2012, compared with rate-sensitive liabilities repricing within one year exceeding rate-sensitive assets repricing within one year by $66.0 million or 2.10% of total assets as of December 31, 2011. The change reflects a more asset-sensitive position than at December 31, 2011 primarily the result of shortening the maturity profile of assets due to higher loan prepayments. Repricing gap analysis is limited in its ability to measure interest rate sensitivity. The repricing characteristics of assets, liabilities, and off-balance sheet derivatives can change in different interest rate scenarios, thereby changing the repricing position from that outlined above. Further, basis risk is not captured by repricing gap analysis. Basis risk is the risk that changes in interest rates will reprice interest-bearing liabilities differently from interest-earning assets, thus causing an asset/liability mismatch. This analysis does not take into consideration the repricing dynamics in adjustable-rate loans, such as minimum and maximum annual and lifetime interest rate adjustments and also the index utilized and whether the index is a current or lagging index. Included in the analysis are estimates of prepayments on fixed-rate loans and mortgage-backed securities in a one-year period and expectations that under current interest rates, certain advances from the FHLB of Atlanta will not be called and loans will not reprice due to floors. Also included in the analysis are estimates of core deposit decay rates, based on recent studies and regression analysis of core deposits.
First Federal is slightly asset sensitive and a positive gap normally indicates that a rise in market rates would have a positive effect on net interest income. The opposite would generally occur when an institution has a negative gap position.
Net interest income simulations were performed as of March 31, 2012 to evaluate the impact of market rate changes on net interest income over the subsequent 12 months assuming a static balance sheet composition. If market interest rates were to increase immediately by 100 basis points, net interest income would be expected to be essentially unchanged from what it would be if rates were to remain at March 31, 2012 levels. If market interest rates were to increase immediately by 200 basis points, net interest income would be expected to decrease by 0.61% from what it would be if rates were to remain at March 31, 2012 levels. The projected decrease is the result of some of the shorter term liabilities repricing immediately while the loans will reprice over a longer period based on contractual repricing dates at a smaller rate increment due to interest rate floors. Net interest income simulation for 100 and 200 basis point declines in market rates were not performed at March 31, 2012 as the results would not have been meaningful given the current levels of short-term market interest rates. Net interest income is not only affected by the level and direction of interest rates, but also by the shape of the yield curve, pricing spreads in relation to market rates, balance sheet growth, the mix of different types of assets and liabilities, and the timing of changes in these variables. Another test measures the economic value of equity at risk by analyzing the impact of an immediate change in interest rates on the market value of portfolio equity. If market interest rates were to increase immediately by 100 or 200 basis points (a parallel and immediate shift in the yield curve), the economic value of equity would increase by 7.77% and increase by 10.00%, respectively, from where it would be if rates were to remain at March 31, 2012 levels. The increases are primarily the result of the core deposit intangibles, which increase in value as interest rates rise. Scenarios different from those outlined above, whether different by timing, level, or a combination of factors, could produce different results.
Computation of prospective effects of hypothetical interest rate changes are based on numerous assumptions, including relative levels of market interest rates, loan prepayments and deposit decay rates, and should not be relied upon as indicative of actual results. Further, the computations do not contemplate any actions that may be taken in response to changes in interest rates.

48
There has been no material change in the information concerning quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk contained in Item 7A of First Financial’s 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K, except as set forth in “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Interest Rate Risk” of this Form 10-Q.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
a) An evaluation of First Financial’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Section 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Act”) was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of First Financial’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and First Financial’s Disclosure Committee as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. In designing and evaluating First Financial’s disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote. Based on their evaluation, First Financial’s Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer concluded that First Financial’s disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2012, are effective in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed by First Financial in the reports it files or submits under the Act is (i) accumulated and communicated to First Financial’s management (including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer) in a timely manner, and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.
b) There have been no changes in First Financial’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Act) that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2012 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, First Financial’s internal control over financial reporting. First Financial does not expect that its internal control over financial reporting will prevent all error and all fraud. A control procedure, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control procedure are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control procedures, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within First Financial have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any control procedure also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions regardless of how remote. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in cost-effective control procedures, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
From time to time, First Financial is subject to various legal proceedings and claims which arise in the ordinary course of business. As of March 31, 2012, First Financial believes that such litigation will not materially affect First Financial’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.
There have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in First Financial’s 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
