Section 2 - Financial Information.
Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On January 21, 2005, the Registrant issued a news release announcing, among
other things, earnings for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2004. A copy
of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this report and all
paragraphs are incorporated into this Item 2.02 by reference. The information in
this Form 8-K, including the exhibits, relating to this Item 2.02 shall not be
deemed to be "filed" for purposes of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "Exchange Act"), or otherwise subject to the liabilities thereof,
nor shall it be deemed to be incorporated by reference in any filing under the
Exchange Act or under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except to the
extent specifically provided in any such filing.
Item 2.06. Material Impairments.
In connection with the preparation and review of the Registrant's financial
statements for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2004, the Registrant
determined to make a $735,500 charge to earnings as a result of a non-cash
accounting write-down of Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC) and
Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA) preferred stocks in its investment
portfolio. Unrealized gains and losses on these securities had been recognized
in the equity section of Registrant's balance sheet in prior periods. Due to a
number of factors, including recent public disclosures about FHLMC and FNMA, the
cost of the securities in relation to their market value, the Registrant
concluded the securities were impaired and reflected the loss in its income
statement. The Registrant continues to hold these securities due to their
variable rate features in the face of anticipated rising interest rates and
other positive income characteristics.
The Registrant does not anticipate incurring any out-of-pocket expenditures
in connection with the impairment of these FHLMC and FNMA securities.
