(1) Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Territorial Mutual Holding Company (referred to herein as “the Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto filed as part of Territorial Bancorp Inc.’s Prospectus dated May 15, 2009, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Securities Act Rule 424(b)(3) on May 26, 2009. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation have been made and include all normal recurring adjustments. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year.

 

(2) Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2008, the FASB amended SFAS 157 through the issuance of FASB Staff Position (FSP) FAS 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157. FSP FAS 157-2 is effective upon issuance and delays the effective date of SFAS 157 to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are not recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). The Company adopted the provisions of FSP FAS 157-2 on January 1, 2009 and such adoption did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), Business Combinations (SFAS 141(R)). SFAS 141(R) establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer in a business combination recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest (minority interest) in the acquiree. The statement also provides guidance for recognizing and measuring the goodwill acquired in the business combination or a gain from a bargain purchase and determining what information should be disclosed to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS 141(R) on January 1, 2009 and such adoption did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements—an amendment of ARB No. 51 (SFAS 160). SFAS 160 establishes new accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. Specifically, this statement requires the recognition of a noncontrolling interest (minority interest) as equity in the consolidated financial statements and separate from the parent’s equity. The amount of net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest will be included in consolidated net income on the face of the income statement. SFAS 160 clarifies that changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in deconsolidation are equity transactions if the parent retains its controlling financial interest. In addition, this statement requires that a parent recognize a gain or loss in net income when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. Such gain or loss will be measured using the fair value of the noncontrolling equity investment on the deconsolidation date. SFAS 160 also includes expanded disclosure requirements regarding the interests of the parent and its noncontrolling interest. The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS 160 on January 1, 2009 and such adoption did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 (SFAS 161). SFAS 161 enhances required disclosures regarding derivatives and hedging activities, including enhanced disclosures

Table of Contents

regarding how (a) an entity uses derivative instruments; (b) derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities; and (c) derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. Specifically, SFAS 161 requires (1) disclosure of the objectives for using derivative instruments be disclosed in terms of underlying risk and accounting designation; (2) disclosure of the fair values of derivative instruments and their gains and losses in a tabular format; (3) disclosure of information about credit-risk-related contingent features; and (4) cross-reference from the derivative note to other notes in which derivative-related information is disclosed. The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS 161 on January 1, 2009 and such adoption did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2008, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) reached a consensus on EITF Issue No. 08-3, Accounting by Lessees for Maintenance Deposits (EITF 08-3). EITF 08-3 states that lessees shall account for nonrefundable maintenance deposits as a deposit asset if it is probable that the maintenance activities will occur and the deposit is realizable. The Company adopted the provisions of EITF 08-03 on January 1, 2009 and such adoption did not have any impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS Nos. 115-2 and 124-2, Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments (FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2). This FSP amends the other-than-temporary impairment guidance in U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and disclosure requirements in the financial statements. For securities not expected to be sold, credit related other-than-temporary impairment is recognized in earnings while noncredit related impairment is recognized in other comprehensive income. FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. The Company early adopted the provisions of FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2 on January 1, 2009. As a result, a $1.5 million cumulative adjustment for prior year impairment losses was recorded that increased retained earnings and decreased accumulated other comprehensive income as of the beginning of the year.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS No. 157-4, Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Indentifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly (FSP FAS 157-4). FSP FAS 157-4 provides additional guidance for estimating fair value in accordance with FASB Statement No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased. It also includes guidance on identifying circumstances that indicate a transaction is not orderly. FSP FAS 157-4 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. The Company early adopted the provisions of FSP FAS 157-4 on January 1, 2009 and such adoption did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS No. 107-1 and APB No. 28-1, Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, (FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1). FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 amends FASB Statement No. 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, to require disclosures about fair value of financial instruments for interim reporting periods of publicly traded companies as well as in annual financial statements. It also amends APB Opinion No. 28, Interim Financial Reporting, to require those disclosures in summarized financial information at interim reporting periods. FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 is effective for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. The Company does not expect the adoption of this pronouncement to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

Trust Preferred Securities. At March 31, 2009, the Company owned trust preferred securities with a carrying value of $4.1 million. The trust preferred securities represent investments in a pool of debt obligations issued primarily by holding companies for Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation-insured financial institutions. All of these securities are classified in the Bank’s held to maturity investment portfolio.

We review our securities investment portfolio on a quarterly basis for indications of impairment. On January 1, 2009, the Bank adopted FSP FAS 157-4, 115-2 and 124-2 which provide further guidance on whether a market for an asset is distressed or inactive, determining whether an entity has the intent and ability to hold a security to its anticipated recovery and whether an investment is other-than-temporarily impaired (OTTI). In accordance with the adoption of these new accounting statements, management has analyzed all investment securities which have an amortized cost that exceeds fair value as of March 31, 2009.

As of March 31, 2009 the amortized cost of the two trust preferred securities owned by the Bank exceeded fair value. Our pooled trust preferred securities are beneficial interests in securitized financial assets within the scope of EITF 99-20 and are therefore evaluated for OTTI by discounting management’s best estimate of future cash flows. The assumptions used in the discounted cash flow analysis included the following: estimated discount rates based on yields of comparably traded instruments adjusted for illiquidity and other risk factors, estimated deferral and default rates on collateral, and estimated cash flows. The discounted cash flow analysis included a review of all issuers within each collateral pool and incorporated higher deferral and default rates in the cash flow projections over the next five years with a forecast of default and deferral rates reverting to historical averages in later periods.

The discounted cash flow analysis is considered our primary evidence in determining whether OTTI has occurred. If the present value of cash flows is less than amortized cost, OTTI has occurred. The difference between the present value of cash flows and amortized cost is considered a credit loss and recorded through earnings. The amount of OTTI related to other factors is recorded in other comprehensive income.

The Company had previously considered its investment in PreTSL XXIV other-than-temporarily impaired as of December 31, 2008, and the Company recorded a $2.5 million impairment charge during the quarter ended December 31, 2008. Based on its continued review, the Company considered its investment in this security to have experienced additional OTTI as of March 31, 2009, and recorded an additional $436,000 impairment charge during the quarter ended March 31, 2009, of which $298,000 was a credit loss recorded through the income statement as a debit to non-interest income, and $138,000 was recorded as an increase to other comprehensive loss. In addition, the cumulative effect of the Company’s adoption of FSP FAS 157-4 and FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2, effective March 31, 2009, resulted in the reclassification of $1.5 million of securities impairment from retained earnings to accumulated other comprehensive loss.

In reviewing its investment in the second trust preferred security (PreTSL XXIII), the Company’s discounted cash flow analysis indicated that it should be able to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security. Accordingly, as of March 31, 2009, the Company did not consider its investment in the second trust preferred security to have experienced OTTI.

The trust preferred securities were rated BBB watch as of March 31, 2009. On April 9, 2009 PreTSL XXIII was downgraded to CC while PreTSL XXIV was downgraded to C.

(8) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

SFAS 157, “Fair Value Measurements”, defines fair value and the methods used for measuring fair value as well as requiring additional disclosures. FASB Staff Position FAS 157-2,“Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157”, delayed the effective date of SFAS 157 to January 1, 2009 for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). FASB also issued Staff Position FAS 157-3, “Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active” in October 2008, which clarified the application of SFAS 157 in a market that is not active. FSP FAS 157-4, “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for The Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly” was issued in April 2009 and provides guidelines for making fair value measurements more consistent with the principles presented in SFAS 157 when the volume and level of activity for assets or liabilities have significantly decreased. We early adopted FSP FAS 157-4 on March 31, 2009.

Under SFAS 157, the Company groups its financial assets and liabilities at fair value into three levels based on the markets in which the financial assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value as follows:

 

   

Level 1 – Valuation is based upon quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities traded in active markets. A quoted price in an active market provides the most reliable evidence of fair value and shall be used to measure fair value whenever available.

 

   

Level 2 – Valuation is based upon 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 significant assumptions not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect management’s own estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include use of discounted cash flow models and similar techniques that require the use of significant judgment or estimation.

Table of Contents

Under SFAS 157, the Company bases its fair values on the price that it would expect to receive if an asset were sold or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. As required under SFAS 157, the Company maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when developing fair value measurements.

The fair values for investment securities were based on quoted market prices, if available, and were classified as Level 1. The estimated fair value of U.S. government-sponsored mortgage-backed securities are based on quoted market prices and considered to be level 1 inputs. If quoted market prices were not available, the valuation for investment securities utilized pricing models that varied based on asset class and included trade, bid and other observable market information. Securities priced using this information were classified as Level 2.

Our pooled trust preferred securities are collateralized debt obligations secured by trust preferred securities issued primarily by banks and bank holding companies in the United States. Since there has been no active trading in these markets for the past nine months, fair value was determined by considering a range of fair value estimates provided by a pricing service and using a discounted cash flow analysis prepared by management. The primary difference between the fair value estimate prepared by our pricing service and our discounted cash flow analysis is the discount rate. As of March 31, 2009, we utilized the yield on corporate bonds plus a 1% liquidity premium to arrive at a risk-adjusted discount rate of 13.11%. Our pricing service used a discount rate of 20.97%. The pricing service provided fair value estimates of $16.42 for PreTSL XXIII and $12.21 for PreTSL XXIV.

The assumptions used by management in the discounted cash flow analysis included the following: estimated discount rates based on yields of comparably traded instruments adjusted for illiquidity and other risk factors, estimated deferral and default rates on collateral, and estimated cash flows. The discounted cash flow analysis included a review of all issuers within each collateral pool and incorporated higher deferral and default rates in the cash flow projections over the next five years with a forecast of default and deferral rates reverting to historical averages in later periods.

Management considered the range of fair value estimates and decided that our pricing service’s estimate of fair value should be assigned a 70% weight and our discounted cash flow estimate should be assigned a 30% weight. We gave a greater weighting to the fair value estimate of our pricing service because of their experience in these matters as an independent third-party service provider. The fair value estimates provided by the pricing service and management’s discounted cash flow analysis resulted in a weighted fair value estimate of $19.74 for PreTSL XXIII and $16.13 for PreTSL XXIV. The fair value estimates of the trust preferred securities are classified as level 3 inputs because they are based on discounted cash flow models.

The Company uses fair value measurements to determine fair value disclosures. The Company has no material assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. From time to time, the Company may be required to record other financial assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, such as loans held for sale, impaired loans, and mortgage servicing assets. These nonrecurring fair value adjustments typically involve application of the lower of cost or fair value accounting or write-downs of individual assets. There were no material assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.

Critical Accounting Policies

There are no material changes to the critical accounting policies disclosed in Territorial Bancorp Inc.’s Prospectus dated May 15, 2009, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Securities Act Rule 424(b)(3) on May 26, 2009.

Comparison of Financial Condition at March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008

Assets. At March 31, 2009, our assets were $1.224 billion, a decrease of $623,000, or 0.1%, from $1.224 billion at December 31, 2008. The decrease was caused by decreases in investment securities and loans, partially offset by an increase in cash and cash equivalents.

Loans. At March 31, 2009, total loans (including loans held for sale of $14.4 million) were $640.3 million, or 52.3% of total assets. During the three months ended March 31, 2009, the loan portfolio decreased $1.8 million, or 0.3%. The decrease was caused primarily by a decrease in home equity loans and lines of credit of $3.6 million. One- to four-family residential real estate loans increased $2.5 million despite our selling $24.7 million of longer-term, one- to four-family residential real estate loans during the three months ended March 31, 2009.

Securities. At March 31, 2009, our securities portfolio totaled $506.9 million, or 41.4% of assets. At March 31, 2009, all of such securities were classified as held-to-maturity, and none of the underlying collateral consisted of subprime or Alt-A (traditionally defined as loans having less than full documentation) loans. At March 31, 2009, we held no common or preferred stock of Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac.

During the three months ended March 31, 2009, our securities portfolio decreased $20.9 million, or 4.0%, as repayments exceeded purchases of securities.

At March 31, 2009, we owned trust preferred securities with a carrying value of $4.1 million. This portfolio consists of two securities (PreTSL XXIII and PreTSL XXIV), which represent investments in a pool of debt obligations issued primarily by holding companies for Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation-insured financial institutions.

On April 9, 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Financial Accounting Standards Board Staff Position (“FSP”) No. FAS 157-4, “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly,” and FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2, “Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments.” FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2 amends the other-than-temporary impairment guidance for U.S. GAAP for debt securities to make the guidance more operational and to improve the presentation and disclosure of other-than-temporary impairments on debt and equity securities in a company’s financial statements. Before these recent staff positions, to conclude that an impairment was not other than temporary an entity was required, among other considerations, to assert that it had the intent and ability to hold the security for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5M, “Other Than Temporary Impairment of Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities,” and other authoritative literature. As a result of these recent staff positions, an entity should assess whether the entity (a) has the intent to sell the debt security or (b) more likely than not will be required to sell the debt security before its anticipated recovery (for example, if its cash or working capital requirements or contractual or regulatory obligations indicate that the debt security will be required to be sold before the forecasted recovery occurs). FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2 also changes the trigger used to assess the collectibility of cash flows from “probable that the investor will be unable to collect all amounts due” to “the entity does not expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security.” If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis of the security, an other-than-temporary impairment shall have occurred. We adopted FSP FAS 157-4 and FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2 for the quarter ended March 31, 2009.

In reviewing our investment in the trust preferred securities, we concluded that we did not have the intent to sell either trust preferred security, and it was not more likely than not that we would be required to sell either trust preferred security before the anticipated recovery.

The trust preferred securities market is considered to be inactive as only two sales transactions have occurred over the past nine months. In addition, there have been no new issues of pooled trust preferred securities since 2007. Because the trust preferred securities market is inactive, we use a discounted cash flow model to determine the estimated fair value of the trust preferred securities and to determine whether they are other-than-temporarily impaired.

We had previously considered our investment in PreTSL XXIV other-than-temporarily impaired as of December 31, 2008, and we recorded a $2.5 million impairment charge during the quarter ended December 31, 2008. Based on our continued review, we considered our investment in this security to have experienced additional other-than-temporary impairment as of March 31, 2009, and recorded an additional $436,000 impairment charge with respect to this security during the quarter ended March 31, 2009, of which $298,000 was a credit loss recorded through our income statement as a debit to non-interest income, and $138,000 was recorded as an increase to other comprehensive loss. In addition, the cumulative effect of our adoption of FSP FAS 157-4 and FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2, effective March 31, 2009, resulted in the reclassification of $1.5 million of securities impairment from retained earnings to accumulated other comprehensive loss.

In reviewing our investment in the second trust preferred security (PreTSL XXIII), our discounted cash flow analysis indicated that we should be able to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security. Accordingly, as of March 31, 2009, we did not consider our investment in the second trust preferred security to have experienced other-than-temporary impairment. Both of these securities were downgraded as of April 9, 2009.

We own common stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle with an aggregate cost and fair value as of March 31, 2009 of $12.3 million based on its par value. There is no market for our Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle common stock.

Recent published reports indicate that certain member banks of the Federal Home Loan Bank System may be subject to accounting rules and asset quality risks that could result in materially lower regulatory capital levels. In an extreme situation, it is possible that the capital of a Federal Home Loan Bank, including the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle, could be substantially diminished or reduced to zero. In addition, the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle stopped paying dividends during the fourth quarter of 2008.

Deposits. During the three months ended March 31, 2009, our deposits grew $17.7 million, or 1.9%. The increase was caused by our continuing to promote higher than market rates for our savings accounts (which increased $37.0 million during the quarter), offsetting a decrease of $14.5 million in certificates of deposit. We have lowered the rates we pay on certificates of deposit because of increased liquidity from other sources, such as loan and securities repayments, allowing these deposits to run off.

Borrowings. Historically, our borrowings consisted primarily of advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle and funds borrowed under repurchase agreements. During the quarter ended March 31, 2009, our borrowings decreased $20.8 million, or 13.8%. During the quarter ended March 31, 2009, we repaid all of our outstanding Federal Home Loan Bank advances. Our reverse repurchase agreements increased $15.0 million, or 13.0%, as we did not require further borrowings to fund our operations. Instead, we funded our operations with additional deposits and principal repayments on loans and mortgage-backed securities.

Equity. At March 31, 2009, our equity was $102.0 million, an increase of $2.6 million, or 2.6%, from $99.4 million at December 31, 2008. The increase resulted from net income of $2.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2009.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2009 and 2008

General. Net income increased $858,000, or 47.3%, to $2.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The increase was primarily caused by a $2.5 million increase in net interest income, partially offset by an increase in the provision for loan losses of $1.1 million and an increase in non-interest expense of $306,000.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $2.5 million, or 31.2%, to $10.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from $7.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008. Interest and dividend income increased $780,000, or 5.2%, as our average balance of loans increased by $66.2 million, or 11.6%. Interest expense decreased $1.7 million, or 24.0%, as declining market interest rates for certificates of deposits allowed us to reduce our deposit expense by $1.4 million. We also experienced a $278,000 decrease in interest expense on Federal Home Loan Bank advances. The interest rate spread and net interest margin were 3.39% and 3.54%, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared to 2.61% and 2.82% for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The improvement in the interest rate spread was the result of a decrease in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities of 74 basis points, and an increase in the average yield on interest-earning assets of four basis points.

Interest and Dividend Income. Interest and dividend income increased $780,000 to $15.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from $14.9 million for the three months ended March 31,

2008. An increase in interest income on loans was partially offset by a decrease in interest income on investment securities. Interest income on loans increased $1.1 million, or 13.1%, to $9.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from $8.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008, as our average balance of loans increased $66.2 million, or 11.6%. Interest income on securities decreased $275,000, or 4.2%, to $6.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from $6.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008, as our average balance of investment securities decreased $17.5 million, or 3.3%. The reduction in our average securities portfolio was caused by repayments on mortgage-backed securities exceeding new purchases. There were no material changes in the rates we earned on loans or investment securities between the periods.

Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased $1.7 million, or 24.0%, to $5.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from $7.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008. Interest expense on deposits decreased $1.4 million, or 26.8%, caused by a decrease in interest expense on certificates of deposit of $1.7 million, or 44.7%. The rates we paid on certificates of deposit decreased 164 basis points, and we experienced a $10.2 million, or 2.6%, decrease in the average balance of certificates of deposit. We have lowered the rates we pay on certificates of deposit because of increased liquidity from other sources, such as loan and securities repayments, allowing these deposits to run off. In addition, interest expense on Federal Home Loan Bank advances decreased $278,000, or 89.4%. During the quarter ended March 31, 2009, we repaid all of our outstanding Federal Home Loan Bank advances.

Provision for Loan Losses. We recorded a provision for loan losses of $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 compared to a provision of $6,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The provisions made during 2009 were general reserves for one- to four-family residential real estate loans in recognition of increased non-performing loans and deteriorating environmental factors. Non-performing loans totaled $1.0 million at March 31, 2009, or 0.16% of total loans at that date, compared to $149,000 of non-performing loans at December 31, 2008, $159,000 of non-performing loans at March 31, 2008 and $106,000 of non-performing loans at December 31, 2007. Non-performing loans as of March 31, 2009 consisted primarily of one- to four-family residential real estate loans. We experienced net chargeoffs (recoveries) of $(1,000) and $5,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The allowance for loan losses to total loans was 0.32% and 0.13% at March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. To the best of our knowledge, we have provided for all losses that are both probable and reasonable to estimate at March 31, 2009 and 2008.

We sold $24.7 million and $0 of loans during the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. We recognized a $298,000 loss for other-than-temporary impairment on our investments in trust preferred securities in the first quarter of 2009, as described in “—Comparison of Financial Condition at March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008—Securities.”

Non-Interest Expense. The following table summarizes changes in non-interest expense between the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008.

Total

   $ 6,635    $ 6,329    $ 306         4.8%
                        

Salaries and employee benefits expense increased as compensation expense, payroll tax expense and health insurance expense increased by $271,000, $56,000 and $25,000, respectively. The increase in compensation expense resulted primarily from increases in bonus accruals ($324,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 compared to $178,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2008) and loan agent commissions ($60,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 compared to $41,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2008). These increases were partially offset by a decrease of $136,000 in pension plan expense, resulting from our freezing our pension plan effective December 31, 2008.

Income Tax Expense. Income taxes were $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009, reflecting an effective tax rate of 35.5% compared to $921,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2008, reflecting an effective tax rate of 33.7%. The change in our effective tax rates was primarily attributable to a decline in tax-exempt interest earned on municipal securities.
