PSB Holdings, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements



NOTE 1 – GENERAL


In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly PSB Holdings, Inc.’s (“PSB”) financial position, results of its operations, and cash flows for the periods presented, and all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.  The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all subsidiaries.  All material intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated.  The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.  Any reference to “PSB” refers to the consolidated or individual operations of PSB Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiary Peoples State Bank.  Dollar amounts are in thousands, except per share amounts.


These interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared according to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and, therefore, certain information and footnote disclosures normally presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted or abbreviated.  The information contained in the consolidated financial statements and footnotes in PSB’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, should be referred to in connection with the reading of these unaudited interim financial statements.


In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and revenues and expenses for the period.  Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.  Estimates that are susceptible to significant change include the determination of the allowance for loan losses, mortgage servicing right assets, and the valuation of investment securities.


NOTE 2 – STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION


Under the terms of an incentive stock option plan adopted during 2001, shares of unissued common stock were reserved for options to officers and key employees at prices not less than the fair market value of the shares at the date of the grant.  These options expire 10 years after the grant date with the first options scheduled to expire beginning in the year 2011.  No additional shares of common stock remain reserved for future grants under the option plan approved by the shareholders.  As of September 30, 2007, 4,747 options were outstanding and eligible to be exercised at a weighted average exercise price of $15.95 per share.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2007, and 2006, options were exercised with respect to 13,755 shares at an average price of $16.14 per share (in 2007), and with respect to 1,385 shares at an average price of $15.82 per share (in 2006).  Options to purchase 1,084 shares at $15.83 lapsed during the nine months ended September 30, 2007.  The total estimated intrinsic value of options exercised was $168 and $21 during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.


NOTE 3 – EARNINGS PER SHARE


Basic earnings per share of common stock are based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares adjusted for the dilutive effect of outstanding stock options.

NOTE 5 – LOANS RECEIVABLE AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES


Loans receivable are stated at unpaid principal balances plus net deferred loan origination costs less loans in process and the allowance for loan losses.


Interest on loans is credited to income as earned.  Interest income is not accrued on loans where management has determined collection of such interest is doubtful or those loans which are past due 90 days or more as to principal or interest payments.  When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, previously accrued but unpaid interest deemed uncollectible is reversed and charged against current income.  After being placed on nonaccrual status, additional income is recorded only to the extent that payments are received and the collection of principal becomes reasonably assured.  All payments collected while a loan is in nonaccrual status are credited against outstanding loan principal.  Interest income recognition on loans considered to be impaired under current accounting standards is consistent with the recognition on all other loans.


Loan origination fees and certain direct loan origination costs are deferred and amortized to income over the contractual life of the underlying loan.


The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged to expense.  Loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses when management believes that the collectability of the principal is unlikely.  Management believes the allowance for loan losses is adequate to cover probable credit losses relating to specifically identified loans, as well as probable credit losses inherent in the balance of the loan portfolio.  In accordance with current accounting standards, the allowance is provided for losses that have been incurred as of the balance sheet date.  The allowance is based on past events and current economic conditions,



7



and does not include the effects of expected losses on specific loans or groups of loans that are related to future events or expected changes in economic conditions.  While management uses the best information available to make its evaluation, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if there are significant changes in economic conditions.


The allowance for loan losses includes specific allowances related to loans which have been judged to be impaired as defined by current accounting standards.  A loan is impaired when, based on current information, it is probable that PSB will not collect all amounts due in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement.  Management has determined that commercial, financial, agricultural, and commercial real estate loans that have a nonaccrual status or have had their terms restructured meet this definition.  Large groups of homogenous loans, such as residential mortgage and consumer loans, are collectively evaluated for impairment.  Specific allowances are based on discounted cash flows of expected future payments using the loan’s initial effective interest rate or the fair value of collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.


In addition, various regulatory agencies periodically review the allowance for loan losses.  These agencies may require PSB to make additions to the allowance for loan losses based on their judgments of collectability based on information available to them at the time of their examination.


Mortgage loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at the lower of cost or estimated market value in the aggregate and are carried as “Loans held for sale” on the balance sheet.  Net unrealized losses are recognized through a valuation allowance by charges to income.  Gains and losses on the sale of loans held for sale are determined using the specific identification method using quoted market prices.


NOTE 6 – FORECLOSED ASSETS


Real estate and other property acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are to be sold and are initially recorded at fair value (after deducting estimated costs to sell) at the date of foreclosure, establishing a new cost basis.  Costs related to development and improvement of property are capitalized, whereas costs related to holding property are expensed.  After foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management, and the real estate or other property is carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less estimated costs to sell.  Revenue and expenses from operations and changes in any valuation allowance are included in loss on foreclosed assets.


NOTE 7 – INCOME TAXES


The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has audited PSB’s federal income tax returns for 1999 through 2002, and has disallowed a portion of the Bank’s interest deductions for such years.  The IRS asserts that PSB owes an additional $184 of tax including interest, which PSB paid in 2005 following the audit.  The IRS’s contention is that municipal bonds owned by the Bank’s Nevada investment subsidiary should be treated as owned by the Bank for purposes of computing the Bank’s allowable interest expense deduction.  The IRS has made the same adjustment for other Wisconsin banks that have Nevada investment subsidiaries.  In August 2005, PSB filed a petition with the United States Tax Court contesting such adjustment.  


On November 1, 2007, the Tax Court decided for PSB on each significant point in the case.  Based on this decision, PSB should receive a refund of previous payments relative to the case of approximately $200.  In accordance with FIN 48 (discussed in Note 11 below), PSB is evaluating this Tax Court decision and the ability to recognize an income benefit of $200 concerning this formerly uncertain tax position in the December 2007 quarter.  The IRS may appeal the findings in the case and must submit its request for appeal by early 2008.

NOTE 8 – DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES


All derivative instruments are recorded at their fair values.  If derivative instruments are designated as hedges of fair values, both the change in the fair value of the hedge and the hedged item are included in current earnings.  Fair value adjustments related to cash flow hedges are recorded in other comprehensive income and reclassified to earnings when the hedged transaction is reflected in earnings.  Ineffective portions of hedges are reflected in income.


NOTE 9 – CONTINGENCIES


In the normal course of business, PSB is involved in various legal proceedings.  In the opinion of management, any liability resulting from such proceedings would not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial statements.


NOTE 10 – HOLDING COMPANY LINE OF CREDIT


During 2007, PSB entered into a line of credit at the parent holding company level for advances up to $1 million which expires in March 2008.  The line carries a variable rate of interest based on changes in the 30-day London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus 1.50%.  As of September 30, 2007 no advances were outstanding on the line.


NOTE 11 – CURRENT YEAR ACCOUNTING CHANGES


In March 2006, FASB issued SFAS No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets, as an amendment to SFAS No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities.  SFAS No. 156 allows PSB a choice in accounting for servicing rights, either under the amortization method (lower of cost or market as is currently used by PSB) or by the fair value method.  PSB adopted SFAS No. 156 on January 1, 2007, and made the election to continue to account for its mortgage servicing rights under the amortization method.  Adoption of SFAS No. 156 did not have a material effect on PSB’s financial condition or results of operations.


In June 2006, FASB issued Financial Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (FIN 48).  FIN 48 clarifies how uncertain tax positions and the potential liabilities associated with such positions should be reflected in earnings and disclosed in the notes to the financial statements.  PSB adopted FIN 48 on January 1, 2007.  PSB did not maintain excess tax reserves and no adjustment to the January 1, 2007 balance of retained earnings as a cumulative change in accounting principal was made.  The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material effect on PSB’s financial condition or results of operations.


NOTE 12 – STRUCTURED REPURCHASE AGREEMENT LIABILITY


During 2007, PSB entered into a 4.65% fixed-rate structured repurchase agreement of $7 million classified as Other Borrowings on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.  The repurchase agreement provides the issuer with a one-time put option to PSB in March 2008, with a final agreement maturity in March 2010.  Securities available for sale of approximately $7.7 million were pledged in connection with the repurchase agreement.

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations


The following discussion and analysis is presented to assist in the understanding and evaluation of PSB’s financial condition and results of operations.  It is intended to complement the unaudited financial statements, footnotes, and supplemental financial data appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q and should be read in conjunction therewith.  Dollar amounts are in thousands, except per share amounts.  This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q describes the business of PSB Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiary Peoples State Bank as in effect on September 30, 2007, and any reference to “PSB” refers to the consolidated or individual operations of PSB Holdings, Inc. and Peoples State Bank.


Forward-looking statements have been made in this document that are subject to risks and uncertainties.  While PSB believes these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, all such statements involve risk and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated in this report.  The assumptions, risks, and uncertainties relating to the forward-looking statements in this report include those described under the caption “Forward-Looking Statements” in Item I of PSB’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 (“2006 Form 10-K”) and, from time to time, in PSB’s other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  PSB does not intend to update forward-looking statements.  Additional risk factors relating to an investment in PSB common stock are described under Item 1A of its 2006 Form 10-K.


Management Discussion and Analysis – Executive Overview


This overview summarizes PSB’s financial trends and the primary opportunities and challenges faced by management.  It is intended to assist the reader in better understanding these trends and management’s plan to address them.  In addition, the near-term issues on which management is most focused are outlined in general terms as a backdrop for more detailed statistical analysis presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.


2007 third quarter net income was $.66 per diluted share, up from $.60 per share during the September 2006 quarter.  Year to date diluted earnings per share were $1.79 and $1.53 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, an increase of 17.0%.  Prior year earnings during the nine months ended September 2006 were reduced from recording an interest rate swap at fair value without the ability to offset the liability against the hedged certificate of deposit.  The $10 million variable rate swap liability was prepaid in the March 2007 quarter with a final payment of $115.  Year to date earnings per share before the impact of marking the swap to fair value and all related swap settlement payment expense would have been $1.78 and $1.61 in 2007 and 2006, respectively, an increase of 10.6%.  


Return on average assets based on net income for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2007 was .79% and .75%, respectively.  Return on average assets based on net income for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2006 was .76% and .68%, respectively.  Return on average stockholders’ equity based on net income for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2007 was 11.70% and 10.83%, respectively.  Return on average equity based on net income for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2006 was 11.48% and 9.73%, respectively.


Assets at September 30, 2007 were $513.2 million, compared to $501.8 million at December 31, 2006, and $500.7 million at September 30, 2006.  Total loans receivable were $380.5 million at September 30, 2007 compared to $369.7 million at December 31, 2006 and $370.0 million at September 30, 2006.  Loan growth of $10.8 million since December 31, 2006 was funded by a decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $10.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2007.


Total deposits of $400.1 million at September 30, 2007 increased $8.7 million from December 31, 2006, and increased $7.7 million since September 30, 2006.  However, these increases were driven by two unrelated customers whose $12.8 million in increased deposits are not expected to be retained beyond 2007.  At September 30, 2007, PSB had invested $10.0 million of these funds in short-term secured and unsecured commercial paper issued by Wisconsin based companies which are classified as securities available for sale.  None of these commercial paper investments are tied to sub-prime mortgage activities.




10



Tax adjusted net interest margin was 3.05% during the September 2007 quarter compared to 3.22% in the June 2007 quarter and 2.99% during the September 2006 quarter.  Loan yields during the June 2007 quarter benefited from a large loan prepayment penalty as well as recognition of deferred interest income upon repayment of a separate large nonaccrual loan.  Quarterly June 2007 net interest margin would have been 3.13% before these special items.  The September 2007 quarterly net margin declined to 3.05% compared to the pro-forma June 2007 quarter as loan yields increased just .02% to 7.11% while savings and demand deposit costs increased .12% to 3.32%.  Year to date net interest margin was 3.13% through September 2007 compared to 3.05% through the nine months ended September 2006.  PSB expects net interest margin for the December 2007 quarter to continue at the level seen during the September 2007 quarter.


Savings and demand deposit interest costs increased during the September 2007 quarter as some existing customers moved funds out of low rate “core” savings and noninterest bearing demand deposits into PSB’s new Rewards Checking account.  During 2007, PSB introduced Rewards Checking as part of a long-term program to attract local depositors and cross-sell other retail products.  Rewards Checking currently pays an above market interest rate of 6.01% annual percentage yield on the first $25,000 to customers meeting account usage requirements including debit card usage, e-banking, and ACH deposit or payment.  Debit card interchange income, overdraft fee income, and increased technology efficiencies lower the overall net cost of the deposit to levels less than equivalent wholesale funding.  Rewards Checking is expected to become a significant funding source for PSB going forward.


Year to date annualized net charge-offs were .00% and .06% through September 2007 and 2006, respectively.  At September 30, 2007, the allowance for loan losses was 1.25% of total loans compared to 1.17% a year earlier.  Nonperforming loans were 1.13% of total loans at September 30, 2007, 1.14% at December 31, 2006, and 1.15% at September 30, 2006.  Existing nonaccrual loans are spread over unrelated borrowers, with the top five largest nonaccrual relationships totaling $1.2 million principal in the aggregate (33% of total nonaccrual balances).  PSB applies all payments received on nonaccrual loans to principal until the loan is returned to accrual status.


The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) audited PSB’s federal income tax returns for 1999 through 2002, and disallowed a portion of the Bank’s interest deductions for such years.  In August 2005, PSB filed a petition with the United States Tax Court contesting such adjustment.  On November 1, 2007, the Tax Court decided for PSB on each significant point in the case.  Based on the decision, PSB should receive a refund of previous payments relative to the case of approximately $200.  In accordance with FIN 48, PSB is evaluating this Tax Court decision and the ability to recognize an income benefit of $200 concerning this formerly uncertain tax position in the December 2007 quarter.  The IRS may appeal the findings in the case and must submit its request for appeal by early 2008.


At the April 17, 2007 annual stockholders’ meeting, PSB announced its intent to repurchase 40,000 shares (approximately 2.5% of outstanding shares) from time to time during the remainder of 2007 at current market prices.  During the September 2007 quarter, this buyback was completed when 15,000 shares were repurchased at an average price of $28.60 per share.  In addition, 9,000 shares were repurchased at an average price of $28.56 to offset shares issued to satisfy exercised PSB stock options.  Year to date through September 30, 2007, PSB repurchased a total of 59,000 shares at an average purchase price of $28.81 per share.  Stock buybacks during 2006 and 2007 have contributed to the increase in earnings per share.

The large increase in retail deposits and total assets was related to  acquisition of two large unrelated deposit accounts totaling approximately $12.8 million.  Most of the funds are not expected to be retained beyond December 31, 2007.  Therefore, a portion of the deposit growth was invested in $10 million of non-rated commercial paper investments classified as securities available for sale at September 30, 2007 with final maturities on October 31, 2007.


The decline in commercial real estate loans was due to a significant borrower who obtained final fixed rate financing using secondary market sources on a construction loan originated by PSB.  The construction loan carried an approximately $3.6 million balance at June 30, 2007.


The significant increase in other borrowings is due primarily to PSB entering into a new $7 million structured repurchase agreement closed in the March 2007 quarter.

The loan portfolio is PSB’s primary asset subject to credit risk.  PSB’s process for monitoring credit risks includes quarterly analysis of loan quality, delinquencies, nonperforming assets, and potential problem loans.  Loans are placed on a nonaccrual status when they become contractually past due 90 days or more as to interest or principal payments.  All interest accrued but not collected for loans (including applicable impaired loans) that are placed on nonaccrual status or charged off is reversed against interest income.   PSB applies all payments received on nonaccrual loans to principal until the loan is returned to accrual status.  Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due have been collected and there is reasonable assurance that repayment according to the contractual terms will continue.


The aggregate amount of nonperforming assets decreased $27 (0.6%) at September 30, 2007 to $4,718 compared to December 31, 2006 and decreased $700 (12.9%) compared to September 30, 2006.  However, nonperforming loans increased by $611 (14.9%) over the June 2007 quarter end total.  Despite the increase in nonaccrual loans since June 30, 2007, the existing portfolio of nonaccrual loans is spread over many unrelated borrowers and industries.  The largest nonaccrual loan relationship is approximately $339 which is secured by residential real estate with a loan to value less than 80%.  Total nonaccrual loan principal for the top 5 relationships was approximately $1.2 million in the aggregate representing approximately 33% of total nonaccrual balances.  All nonaccrual loans are secured by collateral or guarantees so as to limit the extent of expected final loan charge-off.  Despite higher nonperforming asset levels, PSB does not expect a significant increase in its typical annual net charge-offs at this time.

LIQUIDITY


Liquidity refers to the ability of PSB to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet PSB’s need for cash at a reasonable cost.  PSB manages its liquidity to provide adequate funds to support borrowing needs and deposit flow of its customers.  Management views liquidity as the ability to raise cash at a reasonable cost or with a minimum of loss and as a measure of balance sheet flexibility to react to marketplace, regulatory, and competitive changes.  Retail and local deposits are the primary source of funding.  Retail and local deposits were 66.2% of total assets at September 30, 2007 compared to 64.5% of total assets at December 31, 2006, and 63.2% at September 30, 2006.

As noted previously concerning Balance Sheet Changes, the September 2007 quarter saw two large depositors increase account balances by approximately $12.8 million.  These funds were held in the money market and large retail time deposit categories.  If these account relationships were excluded, retail and local deposits were 65.4% of pro-forma total assets.  If PSB had not acquired these two large accounts, wholesale funding would have increased modestly during the three months ended September 30, 2007.  Federal Home Loan Bank advances, broker and national certificates of deposit, and structured repurchase agreements represent a significant portion of PSB’s total funding ability.  Wholesale funding levels relative to earning assets are expected to remain similar during the December 2007 quarter due to growth in seasonal balances from local government units.

Wholesale funding generally carries higher interest rates than local funding, so loan growth supported by wholesale funds often generates lower net interest spreads than loan growth supported by local funds.  However, wholesale funds provide PSB the ability to quickly raise large funding blocks and to match loan terms to minimize interest rate risk and avoid the higher incremental cost to existing deposits from simply increasing retail rates to raise local deposits.  Rates paid on local deposits are significantly impacted by competitor interest rates and the local economy’s ability to grow in a way that supports deposit needs for all local banks.  


During 2006, PSB began to offer a retail high yield MMDA deposit account in response to local competitive pressure and rising market interest rates for such funds.  High yield MMDA dollars increased from $27,808 at September 30, 2006, to $45,879 at September 30, 2007.  Approximately $5 million of the increase came in the September 2007 quarter from one large account.  However, it appears a significant portion of the account growth came from existing MMDA dollars previously held by customers in PSB’s original “core” MMDA account.  At September 30, 2006, the original “core rate” MMDA held $25,446 of balances which has declined to $17,328 of balances as of September 30, 2007.  PSB expects a similar level of disintermediation to continue during the remainder of 2007.


During June 2007, PSB introduced a new retail interest-bearing checking account named Rewards Checking as part of a long-term program to attract local depositors and cross-sell other retail products.  Rewards Checking pays an above market interest rate of 6.01% annual percentage yield on the first $25,000 to customers meeting account usage requirements including debit card usage, e-banking, and ACH deposit or payment.  Debit card interchange income, overdraft fee income, and increased technology efficiencies lower the overall net cost of the deposit to levels less than equivalent wholesale funding.  Rewards Checking is expected to become a significant funding source for PSB going forward.  Growth in the interest-bearing demand deposit category during the September 2007 relative to December 31, 2006 is due to growth in Reward Checking balances.


PSB originates retail certificates of deposit with local depositors under a program known as the Certificate of Deposit Account Registry System (CDARS) in which PSB customer deposits (with participation of other banks in the CDARS network) are able to obtain levels of FDIC deposit insurance coverage in amounts greater than traditional limits.  For purposes of the Period-End Deposit Composition Table above, these certificates are included in retail time deposits $100 and over and totaled $10,364 at September 30, 2007, $10,367 at December 31, 2006, and $10,300 at September 30, 2006.  Although classified as retail time deposits in the table above, these balances are required to be classified as broker deposits on PSB’s quarterly regulatory call reports.  


PSB’s internal policy is to limit broker and national time (not including CDARS) deposits to 20% of total assets.  Broker and national deposits as a percentage of total assets was 11.7%, 13.5%, and 15.2% at September 30, 2007, December 31, 2006, and September 30, 2006, respectively.  Brokered deposits as a percentage of total assets are expected to increase in the coming year.

Total FHLB advances in excess of approximately $60,000 require PSB to purchase additional FHLB stock equal to 5% of the advance amount.  PSB was recently informed by the FHLB that dividends on their stock will be discontinued until their profits improve (which is not expected during 2008).  Therefore, significant additional FHLB advances carry additional cost relative to other wholesale borrowing alternatives due to the requirement to hold non-earning FHLB stock.


The table below presents maturity repricing information as of September 30, 2007.  The following repricing methodologies should be noted:


1.

Money market deposit accounts are considered fully repriced within 90 days.  Certain NOW and savings accounts are considered “core” deposits as they are generally insensitive to interest rate changes.  These deposits are generally considered to reprice beyond five years.


2.

Nonaccrual loans are considered to reprice beyond five years.


3.

Assets and liabilities with contractual calls or prepayment options are repriced according to the likelihood of the call or prepayment being exercised in the current interest rate environment.


4.

Impact of rising or falling interest rates is based on a parallel yield curve change that is fully implemented within a 12-month time horizon.

The Asset/Liability Committee uses financial modeling techniques that measure the interest rate risk.  Policies established by PSB’s Asset/Liability Committee are intended to limit exposure of earnings at risk.  A formal liquidity contingency plan exists that directs management to the least expensive liquidity sources to fund sudden and unanticipated liquidity needs.  PSB also uses various policy measures to assess the adequacy of PSB’s liquidity and interest rate risk as described below.


Basic Surplus


PSB measures basic surplus as the amount of existing net liquid assets (after deducting short-term liabilities and coverage for anticipated deposit funding outflows during the next 30 days) divided by total assets.  The basic surplus calculation does not consider unused but available correspondent bank federal funds purchased, as those funds are subject to availability based on the correspondent bank’s own liquidity needs and therefore are not guaranteed contractual funds.  PSB’s basic surplus, including available open line of credit FHLB advances not yet utilized at September 30, 2007, December 31, 2006, and September 30, 2006, was 5.4%, 10.1%, and 10.5% respectively.




17



Interest Rate Risk Limits


PSB balances the need for liquidity with the opportunity for increased net interest income available from longer term loans held for investment and securities.  To measure the impact on net interest income from interest rate changes, PSB models interest rate simulations on a quarterly basis.  Company policy is that projected net interest income over the next 12 months will not be reduced by more than 15% given a change in interest rates of up to 200 basis points.  The following table presents the projected impact to net interest income by certain rate change scenarios and the change to the one year cumulative ratio of rate sensitive assets to rate sensitive liabilities.

Core Funding Utilization


To assess whether interest rate sensitivity beyond one year helps mitigate or exacerbate the short-term rate sensitive position, a quarterly measure of core funding utilization is made.  Core funding is defined as liabilities with a maturity in excess of 60 months and capital.  “Core” deposits including certain DDA, NOW, and non-maturity savings accounts (except money market accounts) are also considered core long-term funding sources.  The core funding utilization ratio is defined as assets with a maturity in excess of 60 months divided by core funding.  PSB’s target for the core funding utilization ratio is to remain at 80% or below given the same 200 basis point changes in rates that apply to the guidelines for interest rate risk limits exposure described previously.  At September 30, 2007, December 31, 2006, and September 30, 2006, PSB’s core funding utilization ratio was projected to be 57%, 57%, and 61%, respectively, after a rate increase of 200 basis points and was therefore within policy requirements.


CAPITAL RESOURCES


Stockholders’ equity increased $925 to $35,372 during the nine months ended September 30, 2007.  Net book value per share increased from $21.67 per share at December 31, 2006, to $22.90 per share at September 30, 2007, an increase of 5.7%.  Approximately 78% of year to date net income was paid out to shareholders in dividends or used to repurchase treasury stock.  At the April 17, 2007 annual stockholders’ meeting, PSB announced its intent to repurchase 40,000 shares (approximately 2.5% of outstanding shares) from time to time during the remainder of 2007 at current market prices.  During the September 2007 quarter, this buyback was completed when 15,000 shares were repurchased at an average price of $28.60 per share.  In addition, 9,000 shares were repurchased at an average price of $28.56 to offset shares issued to satisfy exercised PSB stock options.  Year to date through September 30, 2007, PSB repurchased a total of 59,000 shares at an average purchase price of $28.81 per share.




18



During 2006, PSB announced and completed a tender offer buyback for 100,000 shares of common stock (approximately 5.9% of the shares outstanding).  The tender offer shares were repurchased at $33.75 per share for a total payment of $3,375 during the June 2007 quarter.  Year to date through September 30, 2006, PSB repurchased a total of 110,500 shares at an average purchase price of $33.52 per share.


The adequacy of PSB’s capital is regularly reviewed to ensure sufficient capital is available for current and future needs and is in compliance with regulatory guidelines.  As of September 30, 2007, and December 31, 2006, the Bank’s Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio, total risk-based capital, and Tier 1 leverage ratio were in excess of regulatory minimums and were classified as “well-capitalized.”  Failure to remain well-capitalized would prevent PSB from obtaining future wholesale broker time deposits which have been an important source of funding during the past several years.  Average tangible stockholders’ equity to average assets was 6.91% during the September 2007 quarter, 6.96% during the December 2006 quarter, and 6.79% during the September 2006 quarter.


During the nine months ended September 30, 2007, 13,755 treasury shares were re-issued to fund an exercise of employee stock options, exercised at an average price of $16.14 per share.  These option exercises had a total intrinsic value of $168 upon exercise.  Refer to Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional details on the PSB stock compensation plan.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


PSB generated September 2007 quarterly earnings per share of $.66 on net income of $1,021, up from $.64 per share on net income of $1,008 in the recent June 2007 quarter, and up from $.60 per share on net income of $965 in the third quarter of 2006.  Year to date earnings per share through September 2007 were $1.79 on net income of $2,828 compared to $1.53 per share on net income of $2,554 through September 2006.


Prior year earnings during the nine months ended June 2006 were reduced from recording an interest rate swap at fair value without the ability to offset the liability against the hedged certificate of deposit.  The $10 million variable rate swap liability was prepaid in the March 2007 quarter with a final payment of $115.  Year to date earnings per share before the impact of marking the swap to fair value and all related swap settlement payment expense would have been $1.78 and $1.61 in 2007 and 2006, respectively.  Refer to Table 16 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a breakdown of the interest rate swap expense during the periods ended September 30, 2007 and 2006.  


Return on average assets based on net income for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2007 was .79% and .75%, respectively.  Return on average assets based on net income for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2006 was .76% and .68%, respectively.


Return on average stockholders’ equity based on net income for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2007 was 11.70% and 10.83%, respectively.  Return on equity based on net income for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2006 was 11.48% and 9.73%, respectively.  Book value per share was $22.90 at September 30, 2007 compared to $21.42 for the same date a year ago, an increase of 6.9%.  The following Table 13 presents PSB’s consolidated quarterly summary financial data.

NET INTEREST INCOME


Net interest income is the most significant component of earnings.  September 2007 quarter tax adjusted net interest income decreased $67 to $3,690 from the recent quarter ended June 30, 2007 but increased $132 from the prior year quarter ended September 30, 2006.  Quarterly and year to date product balances, yields, and costs are presented in Table 14A and 14B.


September quarterly net interest income declined compared to the prior June 2007 quarter due to special items in the June 2007 quarter.  Loan yields during the June 2007 quarter benefited by a total of $104 collected on a large loan prepayment penalty ($40) as well as deferred interest income upon repayment of a separate large nonaccrual loan ($64).  Quarterly June 2007 loan yield would have been 7.09% and net interest margin would have been 3.13% before these special items.  


Tax adjusted net interest margin was 3.05% during the September 2007 quarter compared to 3.22% (3.13% on a proforma basis) in the June 2007 quarter and 2.99% during the September 2006 quarter.  Year to date net margin was 3.13% through September 2007 compared to 3.05% through the nine months ended September 2006.  On a linked quarter basis, September 2007 net margin decline as loan yields increased just .02% on a proforma basis while interest bearing savings and demand deposit costs increased .12%

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES


Management determines the adequacy of the provision for loan losses based on past loan experience, current economic conditions, and composition of the loan portfolio.  Accordingly, the amount charged to expense is based on management’s evaluation of the loan portfolio.  It is PSB’s policy that when available information confirms that specific loans and leases, or portions thereof, including impaired loans, are uncollectible, these amounts are promptly charged off against the allowance.  PSB’s provision for loan losses was $120 in the third quarter of both 2007 and 2006.  Year to date provision for loan losses was $360 and $375 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.  Annualized net charge-offs (recoveries) were .02% and (.04%) during the September 2007 and 2006 quarters, respectively.  Year to date annualized net charge-offs were .00% and .06% for September 2007 and 2006, respectively.


Nonperforming loans are reviewed to determine exposure for potential loss within each loan category.  The adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is assessed based on credit quality and other pertinent loan portfolio information.  The adequacy of the allowance and the provision for loan losses is consistent with the composition of the loan portfolio and recent credit quality history.  The current quarterly level of loan loss provision is expected to continue during the remainder of 2007.




25



NONINTEREST INCOME


Total noninterest income for the quarter ended September 30, was $927 and $912 in 2007 and 2006, respectively.  However, the September 2006 quarter contained several special items impacting non-interest income.


Following a decision not to enter a nearby market with a stand alone de novo banking location, vacant land held for branching was sold during the September 2006 quarter for a gain of $389 ($236 after tax expense).  


In response to falling long-term market rates in September 2006 and the ability to offset a securities loss against the one-time gain on sale of land held for branching, PSB sought to restructure its balance sheet for higher future earnings and to reduce interest rate sensitivity to falling rates by selling low yielding securities for a loss and reinvesting in longer-term higher yielding securities.  During the September 2006 quarter, PSB sold $17 million of securities which generated a loss of $472 ($303 after tax benefits).  Approximately $11 million of the sales proceeds was reinvested in higher coupon securities with the remainder of the funds used to repay wholesale funding.


During 2005, PSB entered into a $10 million interest rate swap (receive fixed, pay variable payments) to hedge the interest rate risk inherent in a fixed rate certificate of deposit that was later determined to not qualify for hedge accounting.  Eliminating the application of fair value hedge accounting in March 2006 caused PSB to mark the swap liability to fair value and generated a charge against noninterest income.  Following a decline in interest rates (which lowered the swap liability), this swap was prepaid in the March 2007 quarter with a final payment of $115 (swap final maturity was in October 2008).  Changes in the fair value of the swap liability and the monthly settlement payments were recorded as reductions to noninterest income.


As regular monthly swap settlement payments made during the year ended December 31, 2006 reduced the swap liability and as market interest rate expectations reduced the projected swap liability, PSB elected to repay the October 2008 maturity swap in full during the March 2007 quarter with a payment of $115.  Table 16 below summarizes the impact to pre-tax income from interest rate swap activity.

If the impact to noninterest income from the special items during September 2006 noted above were excluded, noninterest income would have been $927 in the September 2007 quarter and $889 in the September 2006 quarter.  


Total noninterest income for the nine months ended September 30, was $2,769 and $2,411 in 2007 and 2006, respectively.  If the impact from special items as described above was excluded, noninterest income would have been $2,752 through September 2007 compared to $2,718 through September 2006.  Due to the Rewards Checking product whose benefits require debit card usage and a program to issue debit cards to commercial entities, interchange income has increased $66 year to date.  However, much of this increase has been offset by a decline in deposit service fees of $63 during the nine months ended September 30, 2007.


As a FHLB Mortgage Partnership Finance (MPF) loan servicer, PSB has provided a credit enhancement guarantee to reimburse the FHLB for foreclosure losses in excess of 1% of the original loan principal sold to the FHLB on an aggregate pool basis.  The following table summarizes loan principal serviced for the FHLB by the MPF program as of September 30, 2007.

PSB ceased originating loans under the MPF 100 program during November 2003.  Since that time all originations have been through the FHLB MPF 125 closed loan program.  Due to historical strength of mortgage borrowers in our markets, the original 1% of principal loss pool provided by the FHLB, and current economic conditions in our markets, management believes the possibility of losses under guarantees to the FHLB to be remote.  Accordingly, no provision for a recourse liability has been made for this recourse obligation on loans currently serviced by PSB.


NONINTEREST EXPENSE


Salaries and employee benefits expense continues to run at levels less than or equal to the prior year, totaling $1,648 and $5,159 for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively, compared to $1,642 and $5,248 for the same periods in the prior year.  Lower employee health insurance expense has been a significant driver to lower costs, with year to date savings through September 2007 of $91 compared to 2006.  Savings were achieved from more active management of self-funded plan expenses, moderately higher benefit deductibles, and a lower number of employee claims.  This level of savings is not expected to continue for the remainder of 2007.  Salaries and benefits expenses have also benefited from operational efficiencies delivered by a smaller employee base, which has declined from 139 full-time equivalent employees (FTE) at December 31, 2006 to 129 at September 30, 2007.


Expenses other than salaries and benefits totaled $1,227 in the September 2007 quarter compared to $1,142 in the September 2006 quarter, an increase of $85. Year to date expenses other than salaries and benefits totaled $3,822 through September 2007 compared to $3,522 through September 2006, an increase of $300.  Ongoing efforts related to initial year compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (“SOX 404”) have increased operating costs by $21 and $130 during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively. In addition, PSB recorded a long-term donation commitment for a qualifying community reinvestment project during 2007 totaling $47.  Before the SOX 404 costs and the donation commitment, year to date September 2007 operating expenses other than salaries and benefits increased $123, or 3.5% led by information technology and marketing costs.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk


There has been no material change in the information provided in response to Item 7A of PSB’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.


Item 4.  Controls and Procedures


As of the end of the period covered by this report, management, under the supervision, and with the participation, of PSB’s President and Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of PSB’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15.  Based upon, and as of the date of such evaluation, the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that PSB’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.  There were no changes in PSB’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f)) during the fiscal quarter covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, PSB’s internal control over financial reporting.




28



PART II – OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1A.  Risk Factors


In addition to the other information set forth in this report, this report should be considered in light of the risk factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A.  Risk Factors” in PSB’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, which could materially affect PSB’s business, financial condition, or future results of operations.  The risks described in PSB’s Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing PSB.  Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to PSB or that it currently deems to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect PSB’s business, financial condition, and/or operating results.
