Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Operations. SP Bancorp, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“SP Bancorp”) is a bank holding company and the parent of SharePlus Bank, a Texas chartered state bank (the “Bank”). SP Bancorp is regulated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve”). The Texas Department of Banking and the Federal Reserve are the primary regulators of the Bank and the Bank is also subject to examination by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. When using the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company,” we are referring to SP Bancorp and the Bank on a consolidated basis.

On May 5, 2014, SP Bancorp entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Green Bancorp, Inc., a Texas corporation (“Green”), and Searchlight Merger Sub Corp., a Maryland corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Green (“Merger Subsidiary”). The Merger Agreement provides that, subject to the terms and conditions thereof, Merger Subsidiary will merge with and into SP Bancorp (the “Merger”), with SP Bancorp continuing as the surviving corporation in the Merger and a wholly owned subsidiary of Green. The board of directors unanimously approved the Merger Agreement on May 5, 2014. Immediately following the Merger, the Bank will merge with and into Green Bank, N.A., a national banking association and wholly owned subsidiary of Green, with Green Bank, N.A. surviving the merger (the “Bank Merger”). The Merger and the Bank Merger are subject to customary closing conditions, including the receipt of regulatory approvals and the approval of our stockholders, and are expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2014. The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency approved the Bank Merger on August 1, 2014. For additional information regarding the Merger, see Note 12 – Contingencies.

All dollar amounts in the Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements are in thousands, except per share and share amounts. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.

The Bank operates as a full-service commercial bank, providing services that include the acceptance of checking and savings deposits, the origination of one- to four-family residential mortgage, mortgage warehouse, commercial real estate, commercial business, home equity, automobile and personal loans. In addition to the Bank’s home office in Plano, Texas, the Bank has three branches as of June 30, 2014: one located near downtown Dallas, Texas; one located near the Bank’s headquarters in Plano, Texas; and one located in Louisville, Kentucky.

Basis of Presentation. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, the Bank, have been prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with guidance provided by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation. Transactions between the consolidated companies have been eliminated. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 filed with the SEC on February 28, 2014. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014. The Company has one reportable segment consisting of the Bank. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer uses consolidated results to make operating and strategic decisions.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements. In January 2014, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standard Update (ASU) No. 2014-04, Receivables – Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40) – Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure (ASU 2014-04). The amendments in ASU 2014-04 are intended to clarify when a creditor should be considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan such that the loan should be derecognized and the real estate recognized. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company is currently evaluating the effects of ASU 2014-04 on its financial statements and disclosures, if any.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (ASU 2014-09). This update to the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) is the culmination of efforts by the FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) to develop a common revenue standard for U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and creates a new Topic 606 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-09 supersedes Topic 605 – Revenue Recognition and most industry-specific guidance. The core principal of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of

promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance in ASU 2014-09 describes a 5-step process entities can apply to achieve the core principle of revenue recognition and requires disclosures sufficient to enable users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers and the significant judgments used in determining that information. The amendments in ASU 2014-09 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period and early application is not allowed. The Company is currently evaluating the effects of ASU 2014-09 on its financial statements and disclosures, if any.

Earnings per Share. Earnings per share (“EPS”) are based upon the weighted-average shares outstanding. Shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“common stock”), held by the SharePlus Bank Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the “ESOP”), which have been committed to be released, are considered outstanding. The table below sets forth the reconciliation between weighted average shares outstanding used for calculating basic and diluted EPS for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013:

Participating securities consist of unvested restricted stock awards (though no actual shares of common stock related to restricted stock awards are issued until settlement of such awards) that receive non-forfeitable dividends or dividend equivalents at the same rate as holders of the Company’s common stock. For the three months ended June 30, 2014, the Company excluded 39,050 restricted stock awards because they were participating securities and 148,875 stock options from the diluted EPS calculation because the effect was anti-dilutive. For the three months ended June 30, 2013, the Company excluded 30,000 restricted stock awards from the diluted EPS calculation because they were participating securities and excluded 69,050 stock options from the diluted EPS calculation because they were anti-dilutive. For the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company excluded restricted stock awards of 39,050 and 30,000, respectively, from the diluted EPS calculation because they were participating securities and excluded 141,504 and 69,050 stock options, respectively, from the diluted EPS calculation because the effect was anti-dilutive.

Note 2. Common Stock

On August 5, 2013, the Company’s board of directors authorized a stock repurchase program pursuant to which the Company was authorized to repurchase up to 5% of its issued and outstanding shares, or up to approximately 81,937 shares of common stock. The stock repurchase program allowed shares to be repurchased in open market or private transactions, including through block trades, and pursuant to any trading plan adopted in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Repurchases under the stock repurchase program could be made at management’s discretion at prices management considered to be attractive and in the best interests of both the Company and its stockholders. Management’s decision to repurchase shares was subject to various factors including general market conditions, the availability and/or trading price of the Company’s common stock, alternative uses for capital, the Company’s financial performance and liquidity, and other factors deemed appropriate. The stock repurchase program had no expiration date and could be suspended, terminated or modified at any time for any reason. The Company had repurchased 70,800 shares under the stock repurchase program through December 31, 2013 and repurchased the remaining 11,137 shares during the first quarter of 2014. The stock repurchase program is now complete. In connection with the stock repurchase program, the Bank paid two cash dividends to SP Bancorp during 2013 totaling $1,350 and one dividend in January 2014 of $350. During April 2014, the Bank paid a dividend to SP Bancorp totaling $300, in order for SP Bancorp to pay general corporate expenses.

The Company’s common stock is traded on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol “SPBC.” Deposit account holders of the Bank continue to be insured by the FDIC. A liquidation account was established in the amount of $17,007, which represented the Bank’s total equity capital as of March 31, 2010; the latest balance sheet date in the final prospectus used in the conversion. The liquidation account is maintained for the benefit of eligible holders who continue to maintain their accounts at the Bank. The liquidation account is reduced annually to the extent that eligible account holders have reduced their qualifying deposits. Subsequent increases will not restore an eligible account holder’s interest in the liquidation account. In the event of a complete liquidation of the Bank, and only in such event, each eligible account holder will be entitled to receive a distribution from the liquidation account in an amount proportionate to the adjusted qualifying account balances then held.

The unrealized losses reflected in the table above were generally due to changes in interest rates. The unrealized losses are considered to be temporary as they reflect fair values on June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 and are subject to change daily as interest rates fluctuate. The Bank does not intend to sell these securities and it is more-likely-than-not that the Bank will not be required to sell them prior to recovery. Management evaluates securities for other than temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluation. Consideration is given to (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 of the securities, and (3) the intent of the Bank to sell or whether it would be more-likely-than-not required to sell its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.

The Bank originates loans to individuals and businesses, primarily geographically concentrated near the Bank’s headquarters in Plano, Texas and its branch in Dallas, Texas. Loan balances, interest rates, loan terms and collateral requirements vary according to the type of loan offered and overall credit-worthiness of the potential borrower.

Commercial Business. Commercial business loans are made to customers for the purpose of acquiring equipment and for other general business purposes, including inventory and accounts receivable financing. Commercial business loans are made based primarily on the historical and projected cash flow of the borrower and, to a lesser extent, the underlying collateral. Commercial business loans generally carry higher risk of default because their repayment generally depends on the successful operation of the business and the sufficiency of collateral.

Commercial Real Estate. Commercial real estate loans are secured primarily by office buildings, strip mall centers, owner-occupied offices, condominiums, developed lots and land, and construction projects. Commercial real estate loans are underwritten based on the economic viability of the property and creditworthiness of the borrower, with emphasis given to projected cash flow as a percentage of debt service requirements. These loans carry significant credit risks as they involve larger balances concentrated with single borrowers or groups of related borrowers. Construction projects are generally underwritten based on either the strength of the developer in the case of speculative developments or the strength of the tenant in the case of build-to-suit projects. Repayment of loans secured by income-producing properties generally depends on the successful operation of the real estate project and may be subject to adverse market conditions and the general economy to a greater extent than non-real estate related investments.

One- to Four-Family. One- to four-family residential mortgage loans are underwritten based on the applicant’s employment and credit history and the appraised value of the property. The assets that serve as collateral for these loans could be negatively impacted by declining real estate values, adverse market conditions and the general economy.

Mortgage Warehouse. Mortgage warehouse loans are funded based on agreements with mortgage lenders pursuant to which we purchase legal ownership interests in the individual loans that such lenders originate. These loans are typically paid off within 30 days of being funded, when the loan is sold into the secondary market. All loans are underwritten consistent with established programs for permanent financing with investors who have met the Bank’s underwriting criteria.

Home Equity. Home equity loans are underwritten similarly to one- to four-family residential mortgage loans. Collateral value could be negatively impacted by declining real estate values, adverse market conditions and the general economy.

Consumer. Consumer loans include automobile, signature and other consumer loans. Potential credit risks include rapidly depreciable assets, such as automobiles, which could adversely affect the value of the collateral.

The Bank uses a 10-point internal risk rating system for loans, which provides a comprehensive analysis of the credit risk inherent in each loan. The rating system provides for five pass ratings. Rating grades six through ten comprise the adversely rated credits. The Bank classifies problem and potential problem loans for all loan types using the classifications of special mention, substandard, substandard nonaccrual, doubtful and loss, which correspond to the risk ratings of six, seven, eight, nine and ten, respectively. The classifications are updated when warranted. Loans are generally reviewed by external asset review companies at least annually. All loans are reviewed internally on a monthly basis for showing signs of delinquency, and periodically for financial weakness. Officers are encouraged to identify credits with weaknesses as soon as they are aware of weaknesses with a potential to subject credits to downgrades. Watch and weaker credits are reviewed monthly for potential upgrades or further downgrades.

A loan is considered substandard if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Substandard and substandard nonaccrual loans include those characterized by the distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Loans classified as doubtful have all of the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. Loans or portions of loans classified as loss are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance is not warranted. Loans that do not expose the Bank to risk sufficient to warrant classification in one of the aforementioned categories, but which possess potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention, are required to be designated as special mention.

Loans or portions of loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses when loans are determined to be uncollectible, including troubled debt restructurings. The Bank evaluates the need for an allocated allowance when loans are determined to be impaired. The allocated allowance is measured by determining the present value of expected future cash flows or, for collateral-dependent loans, the fair value of the collateral adjusted for market conditions and selling expenses. The Bank provided an allocated allowance for loan losses of $115 to customers whose loan terms had been modified in troubled debt restructurings as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The Bank has not committed to lend additional amounts to customers with outstanding loans that were classified as troubled debt restructurings at June 30, 2014 or December 31, 2013.

During the six months ended June 30, 2014, no loans were modified to reduce the interest rate or extend payment terms. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, one loan, totaling $392, was modified to reduce the interest rate and to extend the interest only payment term to 24 months.

During the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, there were no defaults on loans that had been restructured during the previous 12 months.

The Bank originated $15,174 and $34,775 in loans during the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, with the intent to sell them to various correspondent lending institutions. Proceeds on sales of these loans were $13,326 and $39,145 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Gains on such sales were $469 and $975 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. These loans were sold with servicing rights released.

Loans serviced for the benefit of others were $4,441, $4,552 and $4,462 at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, respectively.

All of our borrowings from the FHLB have a fixed interest rate. These borrowings were secured by FHLB stock, real estate loans and securities collectively totaling $104,520 and $89,421, at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The Bank had remaining credit available under the FHLB borrowing program of $76,937 and $81,824 at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. During July 2014, the Bank repaid the $20,000 advance due on July 11, 2014.

In previous periods, the Bank incurred prepayment fees related to prepayment of FHLB advances, which advances were subsequently replaced with lower cost FHLB borrowings. Such fees were deferred and are being recognized in interest expense using the interest method as an adjustment to the cost of the new advances over their remaining term.

At June 30, 2014, the Bank had borrowed $2,790 in overnight federal funds to meet a short-term liquidity need. This loan has subsequently been repaid.

Note 6. Employee Benefits

Defined contribution plan. The Bank’s 401(k) plan covers all eligible employees, as defined therein. The Bank matches 100% of employee contributions up to 5% of an employee’s salary. The Bank made matching contributions totaling $44 and $43 during the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and matching contributions totaling $84 and $82 during the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

The Bank had a nonqualified deferred compensation plan for the benefit of one executive officer. This plan matured and paid the executive $243 during the second quarter of 2013. The Bank funded its obligations pursuant to this plan with a fixed rate annuity. Expense of $0 was recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014. Expense of $10 and $22 was recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2013, respectively. The Bank has no remaining obligation with respect to this plan.

ESOP. In conjunction with the Company’s initial public offering, the Bank adopted the ESOP for eligible employees. The ESOP purchased 138,000 shares of common stock for allocation to participants thereunder.

To be eligible to participate in the ESOP, employees must have completed at least 1,000 hours of service during each plan year, which begins on January 1st. Benefits issued under the ESOP vest over a period of six years, with 20% of the benefits vesting following two years of service and the remaining 80% vesting at a rate of 20% for each additional year of service thereafter. The Bank makes minimum annual contributions to the ESOP equal to the ESOP’s debt service. The ESOP shares are pledged as collateral on the ESOP loan from the Company, which was used to fund the ESOP’s initial purchase of shares. As the loan is repaid, shares are released from collateral and allocated to participating employees, based on the proportion of loan principal and interest repaid and the compensation of the participants.

The table below sets forth the ESOP shares at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013:

 

     June 30,     December 31,

   $ 80  1    $ 127  1 

 

(1) June 30, 2014 amount is for six months; December 31, 2013 amount is for 12 months.

Share-based compensation. On May 17, 2012, the Company established the 2012 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”), a long-term incentive plan under which 241,500 shares of common stock were authorized for equity-based awards. The Incentive Plan has been approved by the Company’s stockholders and is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s board of directors (the “Committee”).

The types of awards that may be granted under the Incentive Plan include stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units. As of June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, 43,325 and 142,000 shares remained available for grants under the Incentive Plan, respectively. Awards under the Incentive Plan are evidenced by an award agreement that: (i) specifies the number of stock options, restricted shares or restricted stock units covered by the award; (ii) specifies the date of grant; (iii) specifies the vesting period or conditions to vesting; and (iv) contains such other terms and conditions not inconsistent with the Incentive Plan, including the effect of termination of a participant’s employment or service with the Company as the Committee may, in its discretion, prescribe. The option price for each grant must be at least equal to the fair value of a share of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Options are granted at such time as the Committee determines at the date of grant and in no event can the exercise period exceed a maximum of 10 years. Upon a change-in-control of the Company, as defined in the Incentive Plan, all outstanding options and non-vested stock awards and units would immediately vest.

Note 7. Income Taxes

The table below sets forth income tax expense and the effective tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013:

 

     Three Months Ended June 30,     Six Months Ended June 30,  
     2014     2013     2014     2013

Effective tax rate

     143.8     31.5     88.0     31.8

The differences between the statutory rate of 34.0% and the effective tax rates presented in the table above were primarily attributable to permanent differences related to nondeductible professional and outside services related to the Merger, tax exempt income consisting of interest on municipal obligations and bank-owned life insurance income.

There were no significant changes in deferred tax items during the six months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to December 31, 2013.

Note 8. Financial Instruments With Off-Balance Sheet Risk

The Bank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit. Commitments to extend credit involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet. The Banks’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counter party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual amount of these instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.

The table below sets forth the approximate amounts of these financial instruments at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013:

 

     June 30,      December 31,  
     2014      2013  

Commitments to extend credit

   $ 62,593       $ 42,253   
  

 

 

    

 

 

 

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Because

 

22


Table of Contents

many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit is based on managements’ credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, single and multi-family residences, plant and equipment, cattle and income-producing commercial properties. At June 30, 2014, commitments to fund fixed rate loans of $36,304 including $29,761 of mortgage warehouse loans, were included in the commitments to extend credit. At December 31, 2013, commitments to fund fixed rate loans of $22,755, including $13,450 of mortgage warehouse loans, were included in the commitments to extend credit. The increase in fixed rate commitments is reflective of the growth in our mortgage warehouse lending business. Interest rates on commitments to fund fixed rate loans, including unsecured loans, ranged from 3.19% to 17.90% at June 30, 2014 and 3.49% to 17.90% at December 31, 2013.

The Company did not incur any significant losses on its commitments for the six months ended June 30, 2014 or 2013. Although the maximum exposure to loss is the amount of such commitments, management anticipates no material losses from such activities.

Note 9. Regulatory Matters

The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank’s assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the following table) of total and Tier I capital (as defined in applicable regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined in applicable regulation), of core capital (as defined in applicable regulations) to adjusted tangible assets (as defined in applicable regulations) and of tangible capital (as defined in applicable regulations) to tangible assets. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which it was subject without giving effect to the Basel III capital rules adopted by the Federal Reserve on July 2, 2013, but not yet effective.

The table below sets forth the Bank’s capital ratios as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 (without giving effect to the final Basel III capital rules):

     30,806         10.07     12,243         4.00     15,303         5.00

Management continues to evaluate the final Basel III capital rules as they apply to the Company and the Bank beginning in reporting periods after January 1, 2015.

Note 10. Fair Value Measurements

Accounting standards define fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. A fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. The price in the principal (or most advantageous) market used to measure the fair value of the asset or liability shall not be adjusted for transaction costs. An orderly transaction is a transaction that assumes exposure to the market for a period prior to

Table of Contents

the measurement date to allow for marketing activities that are usual and customary for transactions involving such assets and liabilities; it is not a forced transaction. Market participants are buyers and sellers in the principal market that are independent, knowledgeable, able to transact and willing to transact.

The guidance requires the use of valuation techniques that are consistent with the market approach, the income approach and/or the cost approach. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets and liabilities. The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts, such as cash flows or earnings, to a single present amount on a discounted basis. The cost approach is based on the amount that currently would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement cost). Valuation techniques should be consistently applied. Inputs to valuation techniques refer to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Inputs may be observable, meaning those that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from independent sources, or unobservable, meaning those that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. In that regard, the guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is as follows:

Level 1 Inputs – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2 Inputs – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These might include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as interest rates, volatilities, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.) or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by market data by correlation or other means.

Level 3 Inputs – Unobservable inputs for determining the fair values of assets or liabilities that reflect an entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities.

There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 categorizations for the periods presented.

A description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy, is set forth below.

Securities available for sale are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. The Company obtains fair value measurements for securities from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment spreads, credit information and the bond’s terms and conditions, among other things.

Certain financial assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. The instruments are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of impairment). Certain impaired loans are reported at the fair value of underlying collateral if repayment is expected solely from the collateral. Other real estate owned (“OREO”) is initially recorded at fair value less estimated costs of disposal, which establishes a new cost basis.

For the six months ended June 30, 2014 no additional provisions for losses were added to any impaired loans. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, impaired loans with principal balances of $1,889 were re-measured and additional provisions for losses of $564 were recorded. The additional provision for loan losses on impaired loans during the three months ended June 30, 2013, was $482.

There were no transfers into or out of Level 3 categorization for the periods presented.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments. The fair value of a financial instrument is the current amount that would be exchanged between willing parties, other than in a forced liquidation. Fair value is best determined based upon quoted market prices. However, in many instances, there are no quoted market prices for the Company’s various financial instruments. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. Accordingly, the fair value estimates may not be realized in an immediate settlement of the instrument. ASC 820 excludes certain financial instruments and all nonfinancial instruments from its disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented may not necessarily represent the underlying fair value of the Company. The methods used to estimate the fair value of loans do not necessarily represent an exit price.

With the exception of sales of loans held for sale and the liquidation of OREO, the Company does not typically sell or transfer assets and liabilities in the normal course of business.

Table of Contents

Cash and short-term investments. The carrying amounts of cash and short-term instruments approximate their fair value.

Securities. See “Note 10—Fair Value Measurements” for additional information related to methods and assumptions used to estimate fair values for securities. It was not practicable to determine the fair value of FHLB stock and other restricted securities due to restrictions on the transferability of such securities.

Fixed annuity investment. The carrying amount approximates fair value.

Loans and loans held for sale. For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and have no significant changes in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values. Fair values for real estate and commercial loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. Fair values for impaired loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses or underlying collateral values, where applicable. Fair value of loans held for sale is based on commitments on hand from investors or prevailing market rates.

Deposits. The fair values disclosed for demand deposits are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (that is their carrying amounts). The carrying amounts of variable-rate, fixed term money market accounts and variable-rate certificates of deposit (“CDs”) approximate their fair values at the reporting date. Fair values for fixed-rate CDs are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits.

Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings. The fair value of advances from the FHLB maturing within 90 days approximates carrying value. Fair value of other advances is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows based on the Bank’s current incremental borrowing rate for similar borrowing arrangements.

Accrued interest. The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate their fair values.

Off-balance sheet instruments. Commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit have short maturities and therefore have no significant fair value.

Note 12: Contingencies

The Company is subject to various legal actions arising in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the resolution of these legal actions is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

Related to the Merger, two putative class action lawsuits have been filed in Maryland, Gary W. Stisser v. SP Bancorp, Inc., et al., in the Circuit Court for Baltimore City, Case No. 24C14003610 (the “Stisser Suit”) and Fundamental Partners v. Jeffrey L. Weaver, et. al., in the Circuit Court for Baltimore City, Case No. 24C14003651 (the “Fundamental Partners Suit”). Both lawsuits name as defendants SP Bancorp, the members of our board of directors, Merger Sub and Green.

The Fundamental Partners Suit alleges that the per share merger consideration is inadequate, and that the members of our board of directors were operating under a conflict of interest because of the benefits to be received by them from the merger, resulting in a breach of their fiduciary duties of good faith, loyalty, fair dealing and due care to our stockholders. The Fundamental Partners Suit also alleges that we and our board of directors breached a fiduciary duty by not disclosing certain allegedly material facts in the initial preliminary proxy statement on subjects which include alleged conflicts of interest, our financial projections, additional information about actions of the strategic review committee (formed for the purpose of overseeing the strategic review process, including the evaluation and negotiation of a potential strategic transaction), and additional information about the analysis performed by our financial advisor, Mercer Capital Management Inc. (“Mercer Capital”). Finally, the Fundamental Partners Suit alleges that Green aided and abetted the breach of fiduciary duty. The relief sought includes class certification, a declaration that there has been a breach of fiduciary duty, damages, and interest and fees, including attorney’s fees.

The Stisser Suit alleges a breach of fiduciary duty by the failure to disclose material facts in the initial preliminary proxy statement on subjects which include our financial projections, the process leading to the proposed transaction, potential conflicts of interest, and additional information about the analysis performed by Mercer Capital. The Stisser Suit also alleges that Green aided and abetted the breach of fiduciary duty. The relief sought includes class certification, an injunction against the merger until all alleged breaches have been cured, damages if the merger has been completed prior to the entry of final judgment, costs and attorney’s fees.

The plaintiffs have filed a motion to consolidate the two cases. A demand for jury trial has been made in each case, and a motion for preliminary injunction to enjoin the merger pending a trial of the case and requesting expedited discovery has been filed in each case. We believe that the claims in these lawsuits are without merit and intend to vigorously defend ourselves against them. However, there can be no assurance as to the outcome of these lawsuits.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition at June 30, 2014 and results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 is intended to assist in understanding the financial condition and results of operations of SP Bancorp, Inc., a Maryland Corporation (“SP Bancorp”). SP Bancorp is a bank holding company and the parent of SharePlus Bank, a Texas chartered state bank (the “Bank”). When using the terms “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company” we are referring to SP Bancorp and the Bank on a consolidated basis. The information contained in this section should be read in conjunction with the unaudited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto, appearing in Part I, Item 1 of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2014 (this “Quarterly Report”).

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report contains forward-looking statements, which can be identified by the use of words such as “estimate,” “project,” “believe,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “seek,” “expect,” “may” and words of similar meaning. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:

 

    statements regarding our goals, intentions and expectations;

 

    statements regarding our business plans, prospects, growth and operating strategies;

 

    statements regarding the asset quality of our loan and investment portfolios; and

 

    statements regarding our risks and future costs and benefits.

These forward-looking statements are based on our current beliefs and expectations and are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control. In addition, these forward-looking statements are subject to assumptions with respect to future business strategies and decisions that are subject to change. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information or future events, except as may be required by applicable law.

The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements:

 

    risks related to our pending merger with Green Bancorp, Inc. (“Green”);

 

    general economic conditions, either nationally or in our market areas, that are worse than expected;

 

    competition among depository and other financial institutions;

 

    changes in the interest rate environment that reduce our margins or reduce the fair value of financial instruments;

 

    adverse changes in the securities markets;

 

    changes in laws or government regulations or policies affecting financial institutions, including changes in regulatory fees and capital requirements;

 

    our ability to enter new markets successfully and capitalize on growth opportunities;

 

    changes in consumer spending, borrowing and savings habits;

 

    changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted by the bank regulatory agencies, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board;

 

    changes in federal, state and local tax rates;

 

    our ability to attract and retain key personnel;

 

    changes in our organization, compensation and benefit plans;

 

    changes in our financial condition or results of operations that reduce capital; and

 

    changes in the financial condition or future prospects of issuers of securities that we own.

Because of these and a wide variety of other uncertainties, our actual future results may be materially different from the results indicated by these forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed above and in the risk factors disclosed under the heading “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, filed with the SEC on February 28, 2014 (the “Form 10-K”), and the unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

Overview

SP Bancorp is a bank holding company and the parent of the Bank. SP Bancorp is regulated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve”). The Texas Department of Banking (the “Department”) and the Federal Reserve are the primary regulators of the Bank and the Bank is subject to examination by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”).

On May 5, 2014, SP Bancorp entered into a definitive merger agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) with Green Bancorp, Inc. (“Green”) and Searchlight Merger Sub Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of Green (“Merger Sub”), providing for the merger of the Merger Sub with and into SP Bancorp. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the merger, each outstanding share of the Company’s common stock will cease to be outstanding and will be converted into the right to receive a cash payment equal to the per share merger consideration of $29.55 (without giving effect to any potential adjustments), which is equal to the adjusted aggregate merger consideration of $46.2 million (subject to downward adjustment in certain circumstances) divided by 1,563,263 shares of our common stock (excluding unvested shares of restricted common stock) outstanding as of the date of the Merger Agreement. Immediately following the merger, the Bank will merge with and into Green Bank, N.A., a national banking association and wholly owned subsidiary of Green, with Green Bank, N.A. surviving the merger (the “Bank merger”). The merger is subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals and approval of the Company’s stockholders, and is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2014. The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency approved the Bank Merger August 1, 2014.

As of June 30, 2014, we had $335.1 million of total assets, $252.5 million of loans, net, including loans held for sale, $269.0 million of deposits and $33.4 million of total stockholders’ equity on a consolidated basis.

For the three months ended June 30, 2014, we had a net loss of $63,000, compared to $304,000 of net income for the three months ended June 30, 2013. The decrease in net income during the three months ended June, 30, 2014 resulted from an increase in net interest income, a decrease in the provision for loan losses and decrease in noninterest income and an increase in noninterest expense. Income tax expense increased for the three months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same period in 2013.

For the six months ended June 30, 2014, we had $33,000 of net income, compared to $689,000 of net income for the six months ended June 30, 2013. The decrease in net income during the six months ended June 30, 2014 resulted from a decrease in net interest income, an increase in the provision for loan losses, a decrease in noninterest income and an increase in noninterest expense. Income tax expense also decreased for the six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same period in 2013.

Our results of operations depend mainly on our net interest income, which is the difference between the interest income we earn on our loan and investment portfolios and the interest expense we incur on our deposits and, to a lesser extent, our borrowings. Results of operations are also affected by service charges and other fees, provision for loan losses, commissions, gain on sales of securities and loans and other income.

As disclosed under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Form 10-K, our results of operations are also significantly affected by general economic and competitive conditions, as well as changes in interest rates, government policies and actions of regulatory authorities. Future changes in applicable laws, regulations or government policies may also materially affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Critical Accounting Policies. There have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies disclosed in our Form 10-K.

(1) Includes fixed annuity investment, accrued interest receivable, deferred tax assets and other assets.

Total assets increased $31.1 million to $335.1 million at June 30, 2014. The increase in total assets was due to higher levels of borrowings and customer deposits that have been reinvested in loans.

Loans, net, including loans held for sale, increased $32.4 million to $252.5 million at June 30, 2014. We experienced loan growth in our commercial business, commercial real estate and one- to four-family portfolios. This loan growth was partially offset by decreases in mortgage warehouse, home equity and consumer loans.

Other real estate owned (“OREO”) increased $97,000, in part due to the foreclosure of a one- to four-family residence located in Ohio. The increase in OREO attributable to such foreclosure was partially offset by the sales of previously foreclosed one- to four-family residences located in Texas.

Deposits increased $7.7 million to $269.0 million at June 30, 2014. The deposit growth was primarily driven by deposits made by new and existing customers, which positively impacted checking, money market and savings account balances.

Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas (the “FHLB”) increased $20.0 million at June 30, 2014, as we used the borrowed funds for a short-term investment opportunity. Federal funds purchased increased $2.8 million to meet a short-term liquidity need.

The $560,000 increase in stockholders’ equity was primarily due to unrecognized gains on available for sale securities arising during the six months ended June 30, 2014. This increase also reflects net income of $33,000 for the period. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we also completed our previously authorized stock repurchase program (the “Repurchase Program”), repurchasing 11,137 shares of the Company’s common stock during this period.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2014 and 2013

General. We recorded a net loss of $33,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $304,000 of net income for the same period in 2013. Net interest income was $2.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014, increasing $62,000 as compared to the same period in 2013. The provision for loan losses decreased $41,000, noninterest income decreased $128,000, noninterest expense increased $275,000 and income tax expense increased $67,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014, in each case as compared to the same period in 2013.

Interest Income. Interest and fees on loans decreased for the three months ended June 30, 2014 due to a lower overall yield on the Bank’s loan portfolio. This decrease was partially offset by higher average loan balances.

Interest income on taxable and nontaxable securities increased for the three months ended June 30, 2014 due to higher levels of investment in securities and lower amortization at June 30, 2014 when compared to June 30, 2013.

Interest Expense. Interest expense on deposits increased for the three months ended June 30, 2014 due to growth in average deposit balances as well as increases in the average cost of deposits. The average rate we paid on deposits increased during the three months ended June 30, 2014, as certificates of deposit represented a larger percentage of our deposits and bear interest at a higher rate than other deposits.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased for the three months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013, primarily due to growth in the Company’s loan portfolio. This increase due to loan portfolio growth was partially offset by a decrease in our interest rate spread to 3.20% from 3.46%, as well as a 26 basis point decrease in our net interest margin to 3.30% from 3.56%.

Provision for Loan Losses. We recorded a provision for loan losses of $59,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $100,000 for the same period in 2013. The decrease in the provision for loan losses was primarily attributable to the sale during the second quarter of 2014 of the Bank’s largest nonperforming asset.

Noninterest Income. Noninterest income decreased primarily due to lower gains on sale of mortgage loans, lower service charges and lower mortgage warehouse fees in the three months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to the same period in 2013. The decline in gains on sale of mortgage loans and on mortgage warehouse fees was the result of lower production in the three months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same period in 2013. Other noninterest income decreased due to a gain on sale of OREO recognized in 2013, but not repeated in 2014, lower income from OREO rental and decreased investment sales income.

Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense increased due to merger-related professional and outside services that are not tax deductible, increased occupancy costs and increased ATM expense. The increase in occupancy expense was related to costs associated with additional technology to increase communication capacity. This increase was partially offset by declines in all remaining noninterest expense categories. The decrease in compensation and benefits expense was a result of lower mortgage commission expense and lower bonus expense. These decreases were partially offset by higher salary levels and share-based compensation expense as well as increased costs associated with the addition of personnel in the Bank’s commercial lending and mortgage warehouse lending departments.

Income Tax Expense. We recorded $207,000 of income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $140,000 of income tax expense for the same period in 2013. Our effective tax rate was 143.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to 31.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2013. The differences between the statutory rate of 34.0% and the effective tax rates were primarily attributable to permanent differences related to nondeductible professional and outside services incurred in connection with the pending merger, tax exempt income consisting of interest on municipal obligations and bank-owned life insurance income.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income decreased for the six months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013, primarily due to a decrease in our interest rate spread to 3.13% from 3.47%, as well as a 32 basis point decrease in our net interest margin to 3.24% from 3.56%.

Provision for Loan Losses. We recorded a provision for loan losses of $198,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $175,000 for the same period in 2013. The increase in the provision for loan losses was primarily attributable to growth in commercial business and commercial real estate loans, partially offset by the sale during the second quarter of 2014 of the Bank’s largest nonperforming asset.

Noninterest Income. Noninterest income decreased primarily due to lower gains on sale of mortgage loans, lower service charges and lower mortgage warehouse fees in the six months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to the same period in 2013. The decline in gains on sale of mortgage loans and on mortgage warehouse fees was the result of lower production in the six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the same period in 2013. Lower service charges were the result of a fee received in the six months ended June 30, 2013, related to the early payoff of a commercial loan, which was not repeated in 2014, as well as a decrease in fees received for wire transfers. Noninterest income was also negatively affected by loss on the sale of OREO recognized in 2014, as well as gain on the sale of and operating income received from OREO, recognized in the second quarter of 2013 and not repeated in the second quarter of 2014, due to the disposal of foreclosed properties.

Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense increased due to merger-related in professional and outside services that are not tax deductible and increased occupancy costs. The increase in occupancy expense was related to costs associated with additional technology to increase communication capacity made during 2014 and a credit received for technology upgrades in 2013

and not repeated in 2014. The increases in professional and outside services and occupancy costs were partially offset by declines in all remaining noninterest expense categories. Compensation and benefits expense declined as a result of lower mortgage commission expense and lower bonus expense. These decreases were partially offset by higher salary levels and share-based compensation expense as well as increased costs associated with the addition of personnel in the Bank’s commercial lending and mortgage warehouse lending departments.

Income Tax Expense. We recorded $242,000 of income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $321,000 of income tax expense for the same period in 2013. Our effective tax rate was 88.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to 31.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2013. The differences between the statutory rate of 34.0% and the effective tax rates were primarily attributable to permanent differences related to nondeductible professional and outside services incurred in connection with the pending merger, tax exempt income consisting of interest on municipal obligations and bank-owned life insurance income.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is the ability to meet current and future financial obligations of a short-term nature. Our primary sources of funds consist of deposit inflows, loan sales and repayments, advances from the FHLB and maturities and sales of securities. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and securities are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition. Our Asset/Liability Management Committee is responsible for establishing and monitoring our liquidity targets and strategies in order to ensure that sufficient liquidity exists for meeting the borrowing needs and deposit withdrawals of our customers as well as unanticipated contingencies. For the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, our liquidity ratio averaged 23.4% and 15.7%, respectively. We believe that we have enough sources of liquidity to satisfy our short- and long-term liquidity needs as of June 30, 2014 and for the next 12 months.

We regularly monitor and adjust our investments in liquid assets based upon our assessment of (i) expected loan demand, (ii) expected deposit flows, (iii) yields available on interest-earning deposits and securities, and (iv) the objectives of our asset/liability management program. Excess liquid assets are invested generally in interest-earning deposits and short- and intermediate-term securities.

Our most liquid assets are cash and cash equivalents. The levels of these assets are affected by our operating, financing and investing activities during any given period. At June 30, 2014, cash and cash equivalents totaled $36.8 million. Securities classified as available-for-sale, which provide additional sources of liquidity, totaled $27.8 million at June 30, 2014.

Our cash flows are derived from operating activities, investing activities and financing activities as reported in our consolidated statements of cash flows in our unaudited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto, appearing in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

At June 30, 2014, we had $62.6 million in loan commitments outstanding, including $54.0 million in unused lines of credit to borrowers. Certificates of deposit due within one year of June 30, 2014 totaled $47.2 million, or 17.6% of total deposits. If these deposits do not remain with us, we will be required to seek other sources of funds, including asset sales and FHLB advances. Depending on market conditions, we may be required to pay higher rates on such deposits or other borrowings than we currently pay on the certificates of deposit due on or before June 30, 2014. We believe, however, that based on past experience, a significant portion of such deposits will remain with us. We also have the ability to attract and retain deposits by increasing the interest rates offered.

Our primary investing activity is originating loans. During the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, we had total loans originated of $102.6 million and $76.1 million, including mortgage warehouse loans and loans held for sale, respectively. We also purchased $2.1 million and $2.5 million of securities during the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Financing activities consist primarily of activity in deposit accounts and FHLB advances. We had a net increase of $7.7 million in total deposits for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to a net increase of $27.9 million in total deposits for the six months ended June 30, 2013. Deposit flows are affected by the overall level of interest rates, the interest rates and products offered by us and our local competitors, and by other factors.

Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of business management. We have entered into borrowing agreements with the FHLB, which provide us with an additional source of funds to the extent that we require funds beyond what we generate through operations. FHLB advances increased $20.0 million to $27.4 million at June 30, 2014. Federal funds purchased increased $2.8 million to $2.8 million at June 30, 2014. Historically, advances from the FHLB have been used primarily to fund loan demand. At June 30, 2014, we had the ability to borrow up to $104.5 million from the FHLB.

The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements, including a risk-based capital measure. The risk-based capital guidelines include both a definition of capital and a framework for calculating risk-weighted assets by assigning balance sheet assets and off-balance sheet items to broad risk categories. At June 30, 2014, the Bank was in compliance with all regulatory capital requirements. The Bank is considered “well capitalized” under regulatory guidelines. See “Note 9 — Regulatory Matters” of the notes to the unaudited consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

On August 5, 2013, our board of directors approved the Repurchase Program pursuant to which we are authorized to repurchase up to 5% of our then issued and outstanding shares of common stock, or approximately 81,937 shares of common stock. In connection with the Repurchase Program, during the six months ended June 30, 2014 the Bank paid two dividends totaling $650,000 to SP Bancorp. During 2013, we repurchased and retired 70,800 shares of our common stock and during the first six months of 2014 we repurchased and retired the remaining 11,137 shares of our common stock authorized to be repurchased under the Repurchase Program, thus completing the Repurchase Program.

Classified Loans

At June 30, 2014 we had 13 loans that were not currently classified as nonaccrual, 90 days past due or troubled debt restructurings, but where known information about possible credit problems of borrowers caused management to have concerns as to the ability of the borrowers to comply with present loan repayment terms and that could result in disclosure as nonaccrual, 90 days past due or troubled debt restructurings, compared to 11 such loans at December 31, 2013. At June 30, 2014, 10 of these loans, with an aggregate balance of $0.7 million, were collateralized by one- to four-family residential mortgage and two loans, with an aggregate balance of $1.1 million, were collateralized by commercial business assets. There was also one home equity line of credit totaling less than $41,000. At December 31, 2013 nine of these loans, with an aggregate balance of $0.7 million were collateralized by one- to four-family residential mortgages of borrowers who had, on occasion, been late with scheduled payments. One of these loans was a commercial loan totaling $0.1 million that had occasionally been past due and there is one home equity line of credit totaling less than $50,000.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

Troubled debt restructurings are defined to include loans for which either a portion of interest or principal has been forgiven, or for loans modified at interest rates or on terms materially less favorable to the creditor than current market rates and terms. To maximize our cash flows, we periodically modify loans to extend the term or make other concessions to help a borrower stay current on its loan and to avoid foreclosure. We generally do not forgive principal or interest on loans or modify the interest rates on loans to rates that are below market rates. At June 30, 2014, we had $1.3 million of troubled debt restructurings comprised of one consumer loan totaling $3,900 and three one- to four-family residential mortgage loans totaling $1.3 million. Of this $1.3 million in troubled debt restructurings at June 30, 2014, one loan totaling $0.7 million was past due over 60 days. At December 31, 2013, we had $1.5 million of troubled debt restructurings comprised of four residential loans totaling $1.5 million and two consumer loans totaling $7,000. Of this $1.5 million in troubled debt restructurings at December 31, 2013, one loan totaling $0.2 million was past due over 90 days and was foreclosed on in January 2014, and one loan totaling $0.8 million was past due between 30-89 days.

Nonperforming Assets

Nonperforming Loans. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, our nonaccrual loans totaled $2.3 and $3.1 million, respectively. At June 30, 2014, nonaccrual loans consisted of nine one- to four-family loans totaling $2.2 million with $112,000 in allocated allowances, two home equity loans totaling $45,000 with $20,000 in allocated reserves and two consumer loans totaling $4,000 with $3,000 in allocated allowances. At December 31, 2013, nonaccrual loans consisted of nine one- to four-family residential mortgage loans totaling $2.0 million with $112,000 in allocated allowances, three consumer loans totaling $7,600 with $3,000 in allocated allowances and one commercial loan totaling $1.2 million with $434,000 in allocated allowances.

For the six months ended June 30, 2014, gross interest income that would have been recorded had our nonaccrual loans been current in accordance with their original terms was $78,000. There was $11,000 interest income recognized on such loans for the six months ended June 30, 2014.

OREO and Other Repossessed Assets. Real estate acquired by us as a result of foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure is classified as OREO. When property is acquired it is recorded at its fair value less the cost to sell at the date of foreclosure, establishing a new cost basis. Estimated fair value generally represents the price a buyer would be willing to pay on the basis of current market conditions, including normal terms from other financial institutions, less the estimated costs to sell the property. Holding costs and declines in estimated fair value result in charges to expense after acquisition. In addition, we periodically repossess certain collateral, including automobiles and other titled vehicles, called repossessed assets. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had $178,000 and $81,000, respectively, in OREO and other repossessed assets consisting of one and three, respectively, one- to four-family residential properties. The increase OREO reflects a foreclosure on a one- to four-family residential property in Ohio and the sale of two previously foreclosed one- to four-family properties in Texas. The one- to four-family property in Ohio was sold during July 2014 and the Bank recognized no additional loss.

Classification of Assets

Our policies, consistent with regulatory guidelines, provide for the classification of loans and other assets that are considered to be of lesser quality as substandard, doubtful, or loss assets. An asset is considered substandard if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Substandard assets include those assets characterized by the distinct possibility that we will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Assets classified as doubtful have all of the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. Assets (or portions of assets) classified as loss are those considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as assets is not warranted. Assets that do not expose us to risk sufficient to warrant classification in one of the aforementioned categories, but which possess potential weaknesses that deserve our close attention, are required to be designated as special mention. As of June 30, 2014, we had $293,000 of assets designated as special mention. As of December 31, 2013, we had $339,000 of assets designated as special mention.

Table of Contents

When we classify assets as either substandard, nonaccrual or doubtful, we allocate a portion of the related general loss allowances to such assets as we deem prudent. The allowance for loan losses is the amount estimated by management as necessary to absorb credit losses incurred in the loan portfolio that are both probable and reasonably estimable at the balance sheet date. When we classify a problem asset as doubtful, we charge the asset off. For other classified assets, we provide an allocated allowance for that portion of the asset that is considered uncollectible. Our determination as to the classification of our assets and the amount of our loss allowances are subject to review by our principal regulator, the Department, which can require that we establish additional loss allowances. We regularly review our asset portfolio to determine whether any assets require classification in accordance with applicable regulations. On the basis of our review of our assets at June 30, 2014, substandard assets consisted of loans of $4.0 million, with an allocated reserve of $134,000 and OREO of $178,000. There were no doubtful or loss assets at June 30, 2014. On the basis of our review of our assets at December 31, 2013, substandard assets consisted of loans of $4.4 million, with an allocated reserve of $571,000 and OREO of $81,000. There were no doubtful or loss assets at December 31, 2013.

As of June 30, 2014, our largest substandard nonaccrual asset was a $742,000 one- to four-family loan that was 61 days past due.

Allowance for Loan Losses

Analysis and Determination of the Allowance for Loan Losses. Our allowance for loan losses is the amount considered necessary to reflect probable incurred losses in our loan portfolio. We evaluate the need to establish allowances against losses on loans on a quarterly basis. When additional allowances are necessary, a provision for loan losses is charged to earnings.

Our methodology for assessing the appropriateness of the allowance for loan losses consists of two key elements: (i) allocated allowances for impaired loans and (ii) a general valuation allowance for non-impaired loans. Although we determine the amount of each element of the allowance separately, the entire allowance for loan losses is available for the entire portfolio.

Allocated Allowances for Impaired Loans. We may establish an allocated allowance when loans are determined to be impaired. Loss is measured by determining the present value of expected future cash flows or, for collateral-dependent loans, the fair value of the collateral adjusted for market conditions and selling expenses. Factors used to identify a specific problem loan include: (i) the strength of the customer’s personal or business cash flows; (ii) the availability of other sources of repayment; (iii) the amount due or past due; (iv) the type and value of collateral; (v) the strength of our collateral position; (vi) the estimated cost to sell the collateral; and (vii) the borrower’s effort to cure the delinquency. In addition, for loans secured by real estate, we consider the extent of any past due and unpaid property taxes applicable to the property serving as collateral on the mortgage.

General Valuation Allowance on Non-impaired Loans. We establish a general allowance for non-impaired loans to recognize the inherent and probable losses associated with lending activities. This general valuation allowance is determined by segregating the loans by loan category and assigning allowance percentages based on our historical loss experience for the last three years, adjusted for qualitative factors that could impact the allowance for loan losses. These qualitative factors may include changes in lending policies and procedures, existing general economic and business conditions affecting our primary market area, credit quality trends, collateral value, loan volumes and concentrations, seasoning of the loan portfolio, recent loss experience in particular segments of the portfolio, duration of the current business cycle and bank regulatory examination results. The applied loss factors are re-evaluated quarterly to ensure their relevance in the current real estate environment.

In addition, as an integral part of their examination process, the Department and the Federal Reserve will periodically review our allowance for loan losses. Such agency may require that we recognize additions to the allowance based on its judgments of information available to it at the time of its examination.

The allowance for loan losses decreased $159,000, or 7.7%, to $1.9 million at June 30, 2014 from $2.1 million at December 31, 2013. In addition, the allowance for loan losses to total loans, including loans held for sale, decreased to 0.75% at June 30, 2014 as compared to 0.93% at December 31, 2013. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of nonperforming loans increased to 84.03% at June 30, 2014 from 65.83% at December 31, 2013. The decline in the allowance for loan losses was due to the sale in the second quarter of 2014 of the Bank’s largest nonperforming asset and the reversal of that previously recorded allowance, partially offset by loan growth in commercial business loans and commercial real estate loans.

Appraisals are generally obtained when market conditions change, annually for criticized loans and at the time a loan becomes impaired. The appraisals are performed by a rotating list of independent, certified appraisers to obtain fair values on non-homogenous loans secured by real estate.

We periodically evaluate the carrying value of loans and the allowance is adjusted accordingly. While we use the best information available to make evaluations, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if conditions differ substantially from the information used in making the evaluations.

Table of Contents

There were no changes in our nonaccrual policy during the six months ended June 30, 2014 or 2013. The accrual of interest on loans is discontinued at the time future payments are not reasonably assured or any such loan becomes 90 days delinquent, unless the credit is well secured and in the process of collection. Loans are placed on nonaccrual status or charged-off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful.

All interest accrued but not collected for loans, including troubled debt restructurings, that are placed on nonaccrual status or charged off, is reversed against interest income. The interest on these loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Aggregate Contractual Obligations

Commitments. As a financial services provider, we are routinely a party to various financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risks, such as commitments to extend credit and unused lines of credit. While these contractual commitments represent potential future cash obligations, a significant portion of commitments to extend credit may expire without being drawn upon. Such commitments are subject to the same credit policies and approval process accorded to loans we make. For additional information, see “Note 8 – Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk” of the notes to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report.

Contractual Obligations. In the ordinary course of our operations, we enter into certain contractual obligations. Such obligations include operating leases for premises and equipment, agreements with respect to borrowed funds and deposit liabilities.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices

Our consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which generally requires the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without consideration of changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of our operations. Unlike industrial companies, our assets and liabilities are primarily monetary in nature. As a result, changes in market interest rates have a greater impact on performance than the effects of inflation.

An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), as of June 30, 2014. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s management, including the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2014.

During the six months ended June 30, 2014, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company is subject to various legal actions arising in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the resolution of these legal actions is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

Litigation

Two putative class action lawsuits have been filed in Maryland, Gary W. Stisser v. SP Bancorp, Inc., et al., in the Circuit Court for Baltimore City, Case No. 24C14003610 (the “Stisser Suit”) and Fundamental Partners v. Jeffrey L. Weaver, et. al., in the Circuit Court for Baltimore City, Case No. 24C14003651 (the “Fundamental Partners Suit”). Both lawsuits name as defendants SP Bancorp, the members of our board of directors, Merger Sub and Green.

The Fundamental Partners Suit alleges that the per share merger consideration is inadequate, and that the members of our board of directors were operating under a conflict of interest because of the benefits to be received by them from the merger, resulting in a breach of their fiduciary duties of good faith, loyalty, fair dealing and due care to our stockholders. The Fundamental Partners Suit also alleges that we and our board of directors breached a fiduciary duty by not disclosing certain allegedly material facts in the initial preliminary proxy statement on subjects which include alleged conflicts of interest, our financial projections, additional information about actions of the strategic review committee (formed for the purpose of overseeing the strategic review process, including the evaluation and negotiation of a potential strategic transaction), and additional information about the analysis performed by our financial advisor, Mercer Capital Management Inc. (“Mercer Capital”). Finally, the Fundamental Partners Suit alleges that Green aided and abetted the breach of fiduciary duty. The relief sought includes class certification, a declaration that there has been a breach of fiduciary duty, damages, and interest and fees, including attorney’s fees.

The Stisser Suit alleges a breach of fiduciary duty by the failure to disclose material facts in the initial preliminary proxy statement on subjects which include our financial projections, the process leading to the proposed transaction, potential conflicts of interest, and additional information about the analysis performed by Mercer Capital. The Stisser Suit also alleges that Green aided and abetted the breach of fiduciary duty. The relief sought includes class certification, an injunction against the merger until all alleged breaches have been cured, damages if the merger has been completed prior to the entry of final judgment, costs and attorney’s fees.

The plaintiffs have filed a motion to consolidate the two cases. A demand for jury trial has been made in each case, and a motion for preliminary injunction to enjoin the merger pending a trial of the case and requesting expedited discovery has been filed in each case. We believe that the claims in these lawsuits are without merit and intend to vigorously defend ourselves against them. However, there can be no assurance as to the outcome of these lawsuits.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

In connection with our pending merger, the Company is supplementing the risk factors previously disclosed under the heading “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of the Company’s Form 10-K as follows:

Risks Related to Our Pending Merger with Green

The merger consideration is subject to downward adjustment in certain circumstances.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the merger, each outstanding share of our common stock will be converted into the right to receive a cash payment equal to the per share merger consideration of $29.55 (without giving effect to any potential adjustments), which is equal to the adjusted aggregate merger consideration of $46.2 million (subject to downward adjustment in certain circumstances) divided by 1,563,263 shares of our common stock (excluding unvested shares of restricted common stock) outstanding as of the date of the Merger Agreement. However, the merger consideration is subject to downward adjustment on a dollar for dollar basis to the extent that our consolidated tangible stockholders’ equity at the month-end prior to the closing of the merger, or, if the merger is expected to close in the first ten days of a month, as of the earlier preceding month-end (subject to adjustment for certain transaction-related expenses and other amounts) is less than $29.5 million. Accordingly, the amount of cash that our stockholders receive upon completion of the merger may be less than they estimated when voting on the proposal to approve and adopt the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby at the special meeting of stockholders held for such purpose.

Regulatory approvals may not be received, may take longer than expected or may impose conditions that are not presently anticipated or that could have an adverse effect on us.

Before the merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement may be completed, we must obtain approvals from the Federal Reserve, the FDIC, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Department. Other approvals, waivers or consents from regulators may also be required. These regulators may impose conditions on the completion of the merger or the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement or require changes to the terms of the merger or the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Such conditions or changes could have the effect of delaying or preventing completion of the merger or the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement or imposing additional costs on us.

Termination of the Merger Agreement could negatively affect us.

If the Merger Agreement is terminated, there may be various consequences. For example, our business may have been impacted adversely by the failure to pursue other beneficial opportunities due to the focus of management on the merger, without realizing any of the anticipated benefits of completing the merger. Additionally, if the Merger Agreement is terminated, the market price of our common stock could decline to the extent that the current market price reflects a market assumption that the merger will be completed. In addition, we have incurred and will incur substantial expenses in connection with the negotiation and completion of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. If the merger is not completed, we would have to recognize these expenses without realizing the expected benefits of the transaction. Further, if the Merger Agreement is terminated under certain circumstances specified in the Merger Agreement, we may be required to pay a termination fee of $2.0 million to Green.

We will be subject to business uncertainties and contractual restrictions while the merger is pending.

Uncertainty about the effect of the merger on employees and customers may have an adverse effect on us. These uncertainties may impair our ability to attract, retain and motivate key personnel until the merger is completed, and could cause customers and others that deal with us to seek to change existing business relationships with us. If key employees depart because of issues relating to the uncertainty and difficulty of integration or a desire not to remain with us, our business could be harmed. Subject to certain exceptions, we and Green have each agreed to carry on our respective businesses in all material respects in the ordinary course consistent with past practice prior to closing.

If the merger is not completed, we will have incurred substantial expenses without realizing the expected benefits of the merger.

We have incurred and will incur substantial expenses in connection with the negotiation and completion of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. If the merger is not completed, we would have to recognize these expenses without realizing the expected benefits of the merger.

Pending litigation could result in an injunction preventing completion of the merger or a judgment resulting in the payment of damages.

In connection with the merger, purported stockholders of the Company have filed putative stockholder class action lawsuits against the Company, the members of our board of directors, Merger Sub and Green. Among other remedies, the plaintiffs seek to enjoin the merger. If the cases are not resolved, these lawsuits could prevent or delay completion of the merger and result in substantial costs to us, including any costs associated with the indemnification of directors and officers. Plaintiffs may file additional lawsuits against us, Green and/or the directors and officers of either company in connection with the merger. The defense or settlement of any lawsuit or claim that remains unresolved at the time the merger is completed may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
