Forward-Looking Statements




This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains certain forward looking statements (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the regulations thereunder).  Forward looking statements are not historical facts but instead represent only the beliefs, expectations or opinions of Quaint Oak Bancorp and its management regarding future events, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain. Forward looking statements may be identified by the use of such words as: “believe”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “intend”, “plan”, “estimate”, or words of similar meaning, or future or conditional terms such as “will”, “would”, “should”, “could”, “may”, “likely”, “probably”, or “possibly.” Forward looking statements include, but are not limited to, financial projections and estimates and their underlying assumptions; statements regarding plans, objectives and expectations with respect to future operations, products and services; and statements regarding future performance. Such statements are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumption, many of which are difficult to predict and generally are beyond the control of Quaint Oak Bancorp and its management, that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied or projected by, forward looking statements. 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: (1) economic and competitive conditions which could affect the volume of loan originations, deposit flows and real estate values; (2) the levels of non-interest income and expense and the amount of loan losses; (3) competitive pressure among depository institutions increasing significantly; (4) changes in the interest rate environment causing reduced interest margins; (5) general economic conditions, either nationally or in the markets in which Quaint Oak Bancorp is or will be doing business, being less favorable than expected;(6) political and social unrest, including acts of war or terrorism; or (7) legislation or changes in regulatory requirements adversely affecting the business in which Quaint Oak Bancorp will be engaged. Quaint Oak Bancorp undertakes no obligation to update these forward looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that occur after the date on which such statements were made.




As used in this report the terms “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Quaint Oak Bancorp, a Pennsylvania corporation, or Quaint Oak Bank, a Pennsylvania chartered savings bank and wholly owned subsidiary of Quaint Oak Bancorp, as the context requires.  In addition, unless the context otherwise requires, references to the operations of Quaint Oak Bancorp include the operations of Quaint Oak Bank.




PART I




Item 1.  Business.




General




Quaint Oak Bancorp is a Pennsylvania corporation headquartered in Southampton, Pennsylvania.  Quaint Oak Bancorp became the holding company for Quaint Oak Bank in connection with the conversion of Quaint Oak Bank in July 2007 from a Pennsylvania chartered mutual savings bank to a stock savings bank.  Quaint Oak Bank, whose predecessor was originally incorporated in 1926, converted from a Pennsylvania chartered building and loan association to a Pennsylvania chartered mutual savings bank named Quaint Oak Savings Bank in January 2000.  Quaint Oak Bank operates primarily from its main office located in Bucks County, Pennsylvania.  In July 2009, Quaint Oak Bancorp purchased a building in the Lehigh Valley area of Pennsylvania and Quaint Oak Bank established three new subsidiaries to conduct mortgage banking, real estate sales and title abstract businesses.  In February 2010 the Bank also opened a branch banking office at this location to serve the Lehigh Valley area of Pennsylvania.As ofDecember 31, 2009,Quaint Oak Bank’s primary market area includes Bucks County, Pennsylvania and, to a lesser extent, Montgomery and Philadelphia Counties of Pennsylvania.  As of December 31, 2009, Quaint Oak Bancorp had $93.9 million of total assets, $68.3 million of deposits and $17.4 million of stockholders’ equity.  Quaint Oak Bancorp’s stockholders’ equity constituted 18.5% of total assets as of December 31, 2009.










Quaint Oak Bank’s primary business consists of attracting deposits from the general public through a variety of deposit programs and investing such deposits principally in residential, multi-family and commercial real estate loans secured by property in our primary market area.  Quaint Oak Bank also originates home equity loans and lines of credit secured by residential properties in our primary lending area.  Quaint Oak Bank serves its customers through its offices as well as through correspondence and telephone banking.




Deposits with Quaint Oak Bank are insured to the maximum extent provided by law through the Deposit Insurance Fund administered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”).  Quaint Oak Bank is subject to examination and comprehensive regulation by the FDIC and the Pennsylvania Department of Banking.  Quaint Oak Bancorp, which elected to be treated as a savings and loan holding company, is subject to examination and regulation by the Office of Thrift Supervision.  Quaint Oak Bank is also a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh (“FHLB of Pittsburgh” or “FHLB”), which is one of the 12 regional banks comprising the Federal Home Loan Bank System (“FHLB System”).  Quaint Oak Bank is also subject to regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (“Federal Reserve Board”) governing reserves required to be maintained against deposits and certain other matters.




Quaint Oak Bancorp’s principal executive offices are located at 607 Lakeside Drive, Southampton, Pennsylvania 18966 and its telephone number is (215) 364-4059.




Quaint Oak Bank’s Lending Activities




General.  At December 31, 2009, the net loan portfolio of Quaint Oak Bank amounted to $72.7 million, representing approximately 77.4% of its total assets at that date.  The principal lending activity of Quaint Oak Bank is the origination of one-to-four family residential loans and commercial real estate loans, and to a lesser extent, multi-family residential loans, home equity loans and construction loans.  At December 31, 2009, one-to-four family residential loans amounted to $40.5 million, or 55.1% of its total loan portfolio of which $15.4 million or 20.9% consisted of owner occupied properties and $25.1 million or 34.2% consisted of non-owner occupied properties.  At December 31, 2009, commercial real estate loans totaled $18.6 million, or 25.3% of its total loan portfolio.  Multi-family residential loans totaled $3.1 million, or 4.3% of the total loan portfolio at December 31, 2009.  Home equity loans totaled $6.4 million, or 8.8% of the total loan portfolio at December 31, 2009.  Construction loans totaled $3.5 million, or 4.8% of the total loan portfolio at December 31, 2009.  As part of our desire to diversify the loan portfolio, Quaint Oak Bank also offers commercial lines of credit, which amounted to $1.2 million, or 1.6% of the total loan portfolio at December 31, 2009.




The types of loans that Quaint Oak Bank may originate are subject to federal and state laws and regulations. Interest rates charged on loans are affected principally by the demand for such loans, the supply of money available for lending purposes and the rates offered by our competitors. These factors are, in turn, affected by general and economic conditions, the monetary policy of the federal government, including the Federal Reserve Board, legislative and tax policies, and governmental budgetary matters.




As a Pennsylvania-chartered savings bank, Quaint Oak Bank is not subject to a regulatory loan to one borrower limit.  Our lending policy limits our loans to one borrower to an aggregate of 15% of the Bank’s capital which amounts to $2.6 million at December 31, 2009.  At December 31, 2009, Quaint Oak Bank’s five largest loans or groups of loans-to-one borrower, including related entities, were $1.5 million, three totaling $1.2 million each and $1.1 million.  Each of Quaint Oak Bank’s five largest loans or groups of loans was performing in accordance with its terms at December 31, 2009.

Origination of Loans.  The lending activities of Quaint Oak Bank are subject to the written underwriting standards and loan origination procedures established by the board of directors and management. Loan originations are obtained through a variety of sources, primarily consisting of referrals from brokers and existing customers. Written loan applications are taken by one of Quaint Oak Bank’s loan officers. The loan officer also supervises the procurement of credit reports, appraisals and other documentation involved with a loan.  To ensure independence, loan officers with the responsibility for ordering appraisals and evaluations do not have the sole approval authority for granting a loan request.  As a matter of practice, Quaint Oak Bank obtains independent outside appraisals on substantially all of its loans which must conform to Quaint Oak Bank’s appraisal requirements.  We may make an exception for loans submitted by licensed mortgage brokers or mortgage bankers placing loan applications.  Quaint Oak Bank also requires hazard insurance in order to protect the properties securing its real estate loans. Borrowers must obtain flood insurance policies when the property is in a flood hazard area.  An environmental questionnaire may be required on any property where an environmental issue is suspected.




All loans are presented to the loan committee for review.  Quaint Oak Bank’s loan approval process is intended to assess the borrower’s ability to repay the loan, the viability of the loan and the value of the property that will secure the loan.  Loans over $750,000 must be approved by Quaint Oak Bank’s loan committee, which currently consists of Messrs. Ager, Spink, Strong, Schulmeister and Phillips, who is Chairman.

Scheduled contractual maturities of loans do not necessarily reflect the actual expected term of the loan portfolio.  The average life of mortgage loans is substantially less than their average contractual terms because of prepayments. The average life of mortgage loans tends to increase when current mortgage loan rates are higher than rates on existing mortgage loans and, conversely, decrease when rates on current mortgage loans are lower than existing mortgage loan rates (due to refinancing of adjustable-rate and fixed-rate loans at lower rates). Under the latter circumstance, the weighted average yield on loans decreases as higher yielding loans are repaid or refinanced at lower rates.




One-to-Four Family Residential Real Estate Loans.  The principal lending activity of Quaint Oak Bank is the origination of loans secured by single-family residences both owner occupied and non-owner occupied properties.  At December 31, 2009, $40.5 million, or 55.1%, of our total loan portfolio, before net items, consisted of one-to-four family residential loans.




It is our policy to lend in a first lien position on owner occupied residences with fixed and variable rates and terms up to 30 years.  Mortgages are limited to 80% of the appraised value, or sale price, of the secured real estate property, whichever is lower.  It is our policy to lend in a first lien position on non-owner occupied residential property with fixed and variable rates and terms up to 15 years or longer amortizations.  Primarily such loans are originated at a fixed rate with a five year maturity.  Such loans are generally limited to 80%, or less, of the appraised value, or sales price plus improvement costs of the secured real estate property.




Our guidelines for credit quality generally parallel the Federal National Mortgage Corporation, commonly called Fannie Mae, and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, commonly called Freddie Mac, secondary market guidelines including income ratios and credit scores.




We originate both fixed rate and adjustable rate residential real estate loans.  Fixed rate loans do not have the same risks associated with a borrower’s ability to repay as adjustable rate loans in a rising interest rate environment; however, the costs of funding such loans are adversely affected by rising interest rates.




Commercial Real Estate Loans.Quaint Oak Bank also originates loans secured by commercial real estate. At December 31, 2009, $18.6 million, or 25.3% of our loan portfolio consisted of commercial real estate loans and $1.2 million or 1.6% of our loan portfolio consisted of commercial lines of credit.  Although commercial real estate loans are generally considered to have greater credit risk than other certain types of loans, we intend to continue to originate such loans in our market area.




5




It is generally our policy to lend in a first lien position on real property occupied as a commercial business property or mixed use properties.  However, in rare instances, we may take a second lien position if approved by the loan committee.  Quaint Oak Bank offers fixed and variable rate mortgage loans with terms up to 15 years with longer amortizations.  Commercial real estate loans are limited to 80%, or less, of the appraised value, or sales price plus improvement costs of the secured real estate property.  Commercial real estate loans are presented to the loan committee for review and approval, including analysis of the creditworthiness of the borrower.  The loan committee reviews the cash flows from the property to determine if the proceeds will adequately cover debt service.  A Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) is calculated using gross income minus operating expenses vs. debt service.  Quaint Oak Bank uses a DSCR of 1.10.  We obtain copies of leases to document income.  Assignments of rents and leases as well as the requirement to provide annual updates of financial information and rent rolls are included in the loan documentation.




Construction Loans.   Our construction loans are generally granted for the purpose of building or renovating a single residential home.  Funds are advanced incrementally as work is completed.  The borrower is required to make monthly interest payments.  We do not fund an interest reserve.  When the construction is finished, the amount of the outstanding loan is less than 80% of the completed value of the property.  Quaint Oak Bank is paid in full when the borrower seeks permanent financing or the property is sold. At December 31, 2009, $3.5 million, or 4.8% of Quaint Oak Bank’s total loan portfolio consisted of construction loans.




Home Equity Loans.  Quaint Oak Bank is authorized to make loans for a wide variety of personal or consumer purposes.  Quaint Oak Bank originates home equity loans in order to accommodate its customers and because such loans generally have shorter terms and higher interest rates than residential mortgage loans.  As part of our lending strategy, we intend to focus on increasing home equity loans, including home equity lines of credit.  At December 31, 2009, $6.4 million, or 8.8% of Quaint Oak Bank’s total loan portfolio consisted of home equity loans.




Loan Origination and Other Fees.  In addition to interest earned on loans, Quaint Oak Bank generally receives loan origination fees or “points” for originating loans. Loan points are a percentage of the principal amount of the mortgage loan and are charged to the borrower in connection with the origination of the loan.  Such origination fees, net of certain direct loan origination costs, are deferred and recognized as an adjustment to the yield (interest income) of the related loans over the contractual life of the loans.




Asset Quality




General.  Quaint Oak Bank’s collection procedures provide that when a loan is 17 days past due, a telephone call is made to the borrower by a mortgage clerk.  If the borrower misses a second payment date, an executive officer will contact the borrower to determine the reason for the delinquency and to work out a possible solution.  Late charges will be assessed based on the number of days specified in the note beyond the due date.  The Board of Directors is notified of all delinquencies thirty days past due.  In most cases, deficiencies are cured promptly.  While we generally prefer to work with borrowers to resolve such problems, we will institute foreclosure or other collection proceedings when necessary to minimize any potential loss.




Loans are placed on non-accrual status when management believes the probability of collection of interest is doubtful.  When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, previously accrued but unpaid interest is deducted from interest income.  Quaint Oak Bank generally discontinues the accrual of interest income when the loan becomes 90 days past due as to principal or interest unless the credit is well secured and we believe we will fully collect.  While there were no non-accrual loans at December 31, 2009, there was no change in our non-accrual loan policy from the prior year.




6




Real estate and other assets acquired by Quaint Oak Bank as a result of foreclosure or by deed-in-lieu of foreclosure are classified as real estate owned until sold.  Real estate owned totaled $913,000 and $732,000 at December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

During the first quarter of 2010, three loans totaling $185,000 that were approximately 90 days past due at December 31, 2009, were placed on non-accrual status and $5,000 of previously accrued interest was reversed.  All three loans are well collateralized.




Classified Assets.  Federal regulations require that each insured savings institution classify its assets on a regular basis. In addition, in connection with examinations of insured institutions, federal examiners have authority to identify problem assets and, if appropriate, classify them. There are three classifications for problem assets: “substandard,” “doubtful” and “loss.” Substandard assets have one or more defined weaknesses and are characterized by the distinct possibility that the insured institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Doubtful assets have the weaknesses of substandard assets with the additional characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values questionable, and there is a higher possibility of loss. An asset classified loss is considered uncollectible and of such little value that continuance as an asset of the institution is not warranted. Another category designated “special mention” also must be established and maintained for assets which do not currently expose an insured institution to a sufficient degree of risk to warrant classification as substandard, doubtful or loss. Assets classified as substandard or doubtful require the institution to establish general allowances for loan losses. If an asset or portion thereof is classified as loss, the insured institution must either establish specific allowances for loan losses in the amount of 100% of the portion of the asset classified loss, or charge-off such amount. General loss allowances established to cover possible losses related to assets classified substandard or doubtful may be included in determining an institution’s regulatory capital, while specific valuation allowances for loan losses do not qualify as regulatory capital. Federal examiners may disagree with an insured institution’s classifications and amounts reserved.




Allowance for Loan Losses.  At December 31, 2009, Quaint Oak Bank’s allowance for loan losses amounted to $835,000.  The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level believed, to the best of management’s knowledge, to cover all known and inherent losses in the portfolio both probable and reasonable to estimate at each reporting date.  The level of allowance for loan losses is based on management’s periodic review of the collectibility of the loans in light of historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral and prevailing conditions.  Quaint Oak Bank is primarily engaged in originating single-family residential loans secured by owner occupied and non-owner occupied properties as well as commercial real estate loans.  The management of Quaint Oak Bank considers the deficiencies of all classified loans in determining the amount of allowance for loan losses required at each reporting date.  Management analyzes the probability of the correction of the classified loans’ weaknesses and the extent of any known or inherent losses that Quaint Oak Bank might sustain on them.




While management believes that it determines the amount of the allowance based on the best information available at the time, the allowance will need to be adjusted as circumstances change and assumptions are updated. Future adjustments to the allowance could significantly affect net income.

The allowance consists of specific and general components.  The specific component relates to loans that are classified as either doubtful or substandard or criticized as special mention.  The general component covers non-classified or criticized loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for qualitative factors.  An unallocated component of the allowance is maintained to cover uncertainties that could affect management’s estimate of probable losses.  The unallocated component of the allowance reflects the margin of imprecision inherent in the underlying assumptions used in the methodologies for estimating specific and general losses in the portfolio.




Investment Activities




General.We invest in securities pursuant to our investment policy, which has been approved by our Board of Directors.  Our investment policy is reviewed annually by our Asset-Liability Committee (ALCO).  All policy changes recommended by ALCO must be approved by the Board of Directors.  ALCO is authorized by the Board to make investments consistent with the investment policy.  While general investment strategies are developed and authorized by ALCO, the execution of specific actions rests with the President and Chief Executive Officer.




9




Our investment policy is designed primarily to manage the interest rate sensitivity of our assets and liabilities, to generate a favorable return without incurring undue interest rate and credit risk, to complement our lending activities and to provide and maintain liquidity.




Our securities are classified as available for sale, held to maturity, or trading, at the time of acquisition.  Securities classified as held to maturity must be purchased with the intent and ability to hold that security until its final maturity and can be sold prior to maturity only under rare circumstances.  Held to maturity securities are accounted for based upon the amortized cost of the security.  Available for sale securities can be sold at any time based upon needs or market conditions.  Available for sale securities are accounted for at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses on these securities, net of income tax provisions, reflected in stockholders’ equity as accumulated other comprehensive income.  At December 31, 2009, we had $1.0 million of securities classified as available for sale, $7.7 million of securities classified as held to maturity and no securities classified as trading.




Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) stock is a restricted investment security, carried at cost. The purchase of Federal Home Loan Bank stock provides banks with the right to be a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank and to receive the products and services that the Federal Home Loan Bank provides to member banking institutions. Unlike other types of stock, Federal Home Loan Bank stock is acquired primarily for the right to receive advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank, rather than for the purpose of maximizing dividends or stock growth. Federal Home Loan Bank stock is an activity based stock that is directly proportional to the volume of advances taken by a member institution. During the fourth quarter of 2008, the Federal Home Loan Bank announced a decision to suspend the dividend on, and restrict the repurchase of, Federal Home Loan Bank stock. As a result, we must continue to hold these securities, although we are not currently receiving a return for this investment.

Sources of Funds




General.  Deposits are the primary source of Quaint Oak Bank’s funds for lending and other investment purposes. In addition to deposits, principal and interest payments on loans are a source of funds. Loan payments are a relatively stable source of funds, while deposit inflows and outflows are significantly influenced by general interest rates and money market conditions. Borrowings may also be used on a short-term basis to compensate for reductions in the availability of funds from other sources and on a longer-term basis for general business purposes.




Deposits.  Deposits are attracted by Quaint Oak Bank principally from southwestern Bucks and southeastern Montgomery Counties, Pennsylvania and northeast Philadelphia.  Deposit account terms vary, with the principal differences being the minimum balance required, the time periods the funds must remain on deposit, and the interest rate.  Quaint Oak Bank does not offer transactional deposit accounts such as demand deposit or NOW accounts.  The Bank does, however, offer an eSavings deposit account product.  This account allows customers to earn money market rates on their funds.  Withdrawals from this account are processed by electronic funds transfer through the Automatic Clearing House (ACH) to the customer’s pre-authorized checking account. At December 31, 2009, the eSavings account deposits totaled $2.0 million.




Quaint Oak Bank has not solicited deposits from outside Pennsylvania or paid fees to brokers to solicit funds for deposit.




Interest rates paid, maturity terms, service fees and withdrawal penalties are established on a periodic basis. Management determines the rates and terms based on rates paid by competitors, the need for funds or liquidity, growth goals and federal regulations.  Management attempts to control the flow of deposits by pricing the accounts to remain generally competitive with other financial institutions in our market area.

Borrowings.  Quaint Oak Bank may obtain advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh upon the security of the common stock it owns in that bank and certain of its residential mortgage loans and mortgage-backed and other investment securities, provided certain standards related to creditworthiness have been met. These advances are made pursuant to several credit programs, each of which has its own interest rate and range of maturities. Federal Home Loan Bank advances are generally available to meet seasonal and other withdrawals of deposit accounts and to permit increased lending.




As of December 31, 2009, Quaint Oak Bank was permitted to borrow up to an aggregate total of $43.2 million from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh.  Quaint Oak Bank’s Federal Home Loan Bank advances outstanding were $6.9 million and $11.2 million at December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.   At present, however, we are reviewing our continued utilization of advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank as a source of funding based on recent decisions by the Federal Home Loan Bank to suspend the dividend on, and restrict the repurchase of, Federal Home Loan Bank stock. The amount of Federal Home Loan Bank stock that a member institution is required to hold is directly proportional to the volume of advances taken by that institution. Should we decide to utilize sources of funding other than advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank, we believe that additional funding is available in the form of advances or repurchase agreements through various other sources.




In June 2009, the Company borrowed $450,000 from a commercial bank to finance the purchase of a building in Allentown, Pennsylvania which serves as the offices for the three new active subsidiaries and a branch banking office which opened in February 2010.  The loan has an interest rate of 5.75%, matures in five years on July 1, 2014 and is amortizing over 180 months. The balance on the loan at December 31, 2009 was $442,000.

  Total Employees
 
 Quaint Oak Bank had 12 full-time employees at December 31, 2009. None of these employees are represented by a collective bargaining agreement, and Quaint Oak Bank believes that it enjoys good relations with its personnel.
 
 Market Area
 
 As of December 31, 2009, Quaint Oak Bank’s primary market area for loans and deposits is in Southampton, Pennsylvania, particularly southwestern Bucks County, southeastern Montgomery County and northeast Philadelphia.  In February 2010, the Bank also established a branch banking office in Allentown, Pennsylvania to serve the Lehigh Valley area.  Quaint Oak Bank’s operating strategy is based on strong personal service and operating efficiency.
 
 Quaint Oak Bank is headquartered in Southampton in Bucks County, Pennsylvania.  Bucks County lies north of Philadelphia, bordering Montgomery County on the west and New Jersey to the east.  In recent years, population growth has been above Pennsylvania averages in both Bucks and Montgomery Counties.  We expect population growth and new housing growth will likely remain above the state average in the near term.  Income and wealth demographics in our market area are also above both national and Pennsylvania averages.
  14
  Competition
 
 Quaint Oak Bank faces significant competition both in attracting deposits and in making loans. Its most direct competition for deposits has come historically from commercial banks, credit unions and other savings institutions located in its primary market area, including many large financial institutions which have greater financial and marketing resources available to them. In addition, Quaint Oak Bank faces significant competition for investors’ funds from short-term money market securities, mutual funds and other corporate and government securities.  Currently, Quaint Oak Bank must compete against a number of small community banks, three regional banks and four national banks in Bucks County.  Also, given Quaint Oak Bank’s operating strategies and reliance on savings accounts and certificates, Quaint Oak Bank also faces intense competition from the money market mutual funds and national savings products.  Quaint Oak Bank does not rely upon any individual group or entity for a material portion of its deposits. The ability of Quaint Oak Bank to attract and retain deposits depends on its ability to generally provide a rate of return, liquidity and risk comparable to that offered by competing investment opportunities.
 
 Quaint Oak Bank’s competition for real estate loans comes principally from mortgage banking companies, commercial banks, other savings institutions and credit unions. Quaint Oak Bank competes for loan originations primarily through the interest rates and loan fees it charges, and the efficiency and quality of services it provides borrowers. Factors that affect competition include general and local economic conditions, current interest rate levels and volatility in the mortgage markets.
 
 At June 30, 2009, the latest date for which information is available, the size of the market in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, as defined by total Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured deposits, was $13.8 billion, populated by 265 branch offices.  Based on information available on the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation’s website at www.fdic.gov, commercial banks accounted for $9.1 billion of such deposits, served by 181 of the 265 branches.  Savings institutions had the remaining 84 branches totaling $4.7 billion in deposits, or 34.1% of the market.
  Regulation of Quaint Oak Bancorp
 
 General.Quaint Oak Bancorp is subject to regulation as a savings and loan holding company under the Home Owners’ Loan Act, as amended, because we made an election under Section 10(l) of the Home Owners’ Loan Act to be treated as a “savings association” for purposes of Section 10 of the Home Owners’ Loan Act.  As a result, Quaint Oak Bancorp has registered with the Office of Thrift Supervision and is subject to Office of Thrift Supervision regulations, examinations, supervision and reporting requirements relating to savings and loan holding companies.  Quaint Oak Bancorp is also required to file certain reports with, and otherwise comply with the rules and regulations of, the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and the Securities and Exchange Commission.  As a subsidiary of a savings and loan holding company, Quaint Oak Bank is subject to certain restrictions in its dealings with Quaint Oak Bancorp and affiliates thereof, including the Office of Thrift Supervision’s qualified thrift lender requirement, dividend restrictions and transactions with affiliates regulations.
 
 Restrictions Applicable to Quaint Oak Bancorp.  As a non-grandfathered savings and loan holding company, Quaint Oak Bancorp is permitted to engage only in the following activities:
 
 ●
furnishing or performing management services for a subsidiary savings institution;
 
 ●
conducting an insurance agency or escrow business;
 
 ●
holding, managing, or liquidating assets owned or acquired from a subsidiary savings institution;
 
 ●
holding or managing properties used or occupied by a subsidiary savings institution;
 
 ●
acting as trustee under a deed of trust;
  15
  ●
any other activity (i) that the Federal Reserve Board, by regulation, has determined to be permissible for bank holding companies under Section 4(c) of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, unless the Director of the Office of Thrift Supervision, by regulation, prohibits or limits any such activity for savings and loan holding companies, or (ii) in which multiple savings and loan holding companies were authorized by regulation to directly engage in on March 5, 1987;
 
 ●
purchasing, holding, or disposing of stock acquired in connection with a qualified stock issuance if the purchase of such stock by such holding company is approved by the Director of the Office of Thrift Supervision; and
 
 ●
any activity permissible for financial holding companies under section 4(k) of the Bank Holding Company Act.
 
 Permissible activities which are deemed to be financial in nature or incidental thereto under section 4(k) of the Bank Holding Company Act include:
 
 ●
lending, exchanging, transferring, investing for others, or safeguarding money or securities;
 
 ●
insurance activities or providing and issuing annuities, and acting as principal, agent, or broker;
 
 ●
financial, investment, or economic advisory services;
 
 ●
issuing or selling instruments representing interests in pools of assets that a bank is permitted to hold directly;
 
 ●
underwriting, dealing in, or making a market in securities;
 
 ●
activities previously determined by the Federal Reserve Board to be closely related to banking;
 
 ●
activities that bank holding companies are permitted to engage in outside of the U.S.; and
 
 ●
portfolio investments made by an insurance company.
 
 In addition, Quaint Oak Bancorp cannot be acquired unless the acquirer is engaged solely in financial activities or to acquire a company unless the company is engaged solely in financial activities.
 
 If a savings and loan holding company acquires or merges with another holding company, the holding company acquired or the holding company resulting from such merger or acquisition may only invest in assets and engage in the activities listed above, and it has a period of two years to cease any non-conforming activities and divest any non-conforming investments.  As of December 31, 2009, Quaint Oak Bancorp was not engaged in any non-conforming activities and it did not have any non-conforming investments.
  16
  If the subsidiary savings association fails to meet the Qualified Thrift Lender test set forth in Section 10(m) of the Home Owners’ Loan Act, as discussed below, then the savings and loan holding company must register with the Federal Reserve Board as a bank holding company, unless the savings institution requalifies as a Qualified Thrift Lender within one year thereafter.
 
 Qualified Thrift Lender Test.Under Section 2303 of the Economic Growth and Regulatory Paperwork Reduction Act of 1996, a savings association can comply with the Qualified Thrift Lender test by either meeting the Qualified Thrift Lender test set forth in the Home Owners’ Loan Act and implementing regulations or qualifying as a domestic building and loan association as defined in Section 7701(a)(19) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.  A savings association subsidiary of a savings and loan holding company that does not comply with the Qualified Thrift Lender test must comply with the following restrictions on its operations:
 
 ●
the institution may not engage in any new activity or make any new investment, directly or indirectly, unless such activity or investment is permissible for a national bank;
 
 ●
the branching powers of the institution shall be restricted to those of a national bank; and
 
 ●
payment of dividends by the institution shall be subject to the rules regarding payment of dividends by a national bank.
 
 Upon the expiration of three years from the date the institution ceases to meet the Qualified Thrift Lender test, it must cease any activity and not retain any investment not permissible for a national bank (subject to safety and soundness considerations).
 
 Quaint Oak Bank believes that it meets the provisions of the Qualified Thrift Lender test.
 
 Limitations on Transactions with Affiliates.  Transactions between savings associations and any affiliate are governed by Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act as made applicable to savings associations by Section 11 of the Home Owners’ Loan Act.  An affiliate of a savings association is any company or entity which controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the savings association.  In a holding company context, the holding company of a savings association (such as Quaint Oak Bancorp) and any companies which are controlled by such holding company are affiliates of the savings association.  Generally, Section 23A limits the extent to which the savings association or its subsidiaries may engage in “covered transactions” with any one affiliate to an amount equal to 10% of such association’s capital stock and surplus, and contain an aggregate limit on all such transactions with all affiliates to an amount equal to 20% of such capital stock and surplus.  Section 23B applies to “covered transactions” as well as certain other transactions and requires that all transactions be on terms substantially the same, or at least as favorable, to the savings association as those provided to a non-affiliate.  The term “covered transaction” includes the making of loans to, purchase of assets from and issuance of a guarantee to an affiliate and similar transactions.  Section 23B transactions also include the provision of services and the sale of assets by a savings association to an affiliate.  In addition to the restrictions imposed by Sections 23A and 23B, Section 11 of the Home Owners’ Loan Act prohibits a savings association from (i) making a loan or other extension of credit to an affiliate, except for any affiliate which engages only in certain activities which are permissible for bank holding companies, or (ii) purchasing or investing in any stocks, bonds, debentures, notes or similar obligations of any affiliate, except for affiliates which are subsidiaries of the savings association.
  17
  In addition, Sections 22(g) and (h) of the Federal Reserve Act as made applicable to savings associations by Section 11 of the Home Owners’ Loan Act, place restrictions on loans to executive officers, directors and principal stockholders of the savings association and its affiliates.  Under Section 22(h), loans to a director, an executive officer and to a greater than 10% stockholder of a savings association, and certain affiliated interests of either, may not exceed, together with all other outstanding loans to such person and affiliated interests, the savings association’s loans to one borrower limit (generally equal to 15% of the association’s unimpaired capital and surplus).  Section 22(h) also requires that loans to directors, executive officers and principal stockholders be made on terms substantially the same as offered in comparable transactions to other persons unless the loans are made pursuant to a benefit or compensation program that (i) is widely available to employees of the association and (ii) does not give preference to any director, executive officer or principal stockholder, or certain affiliated interests of either, over other employees of the savings association.  Section 22(h) also requires prior board approval for certain loans.  In addition, the aggregate amount of extensions of credit by a savings association to all insiders cannot exceed the association’s unimpaired capital and surplus.  Furthermore, Section 22(g) places additional restrictions on loans to executive officers.  As an insured state chartered savings bank, Quaint Oak Bank currently is subject to Sections 22(g) and (h) of the Federal Reserve Act and at December 31, 2009, was in compliance with the above restrictions.
 
 Restrictions on Acquisitions.Except under limited circumstances, savings and loan holding companies are prohibited from acquiring, without prior approval of the Director of the Office of Thrift Supervision, (i) control of any other savings association or savings and loan holding company or substantially all the assets thereof or (ii) more than 5% of the voting shares of a savings association or holding company thereof which is not a subsidiary.  Except with the prior approval of the Director, no director or officer of a savings and loan holding company or person owning or controlling by proxy or otherwise more than 25% of such company’s stock, may acquire control of any savings association, other than a subsidiary savings association, or of any other savings and loan holding company.
 
 The Director of the Office of Thrift Supervision may only approve acquisitions resulting in the formation of a multiple savings and loan holding company which controls savings associations in more than one state if (i) the multiple savings and loan holding company involved controls a savings association which operated a home or branch office located in the state of the association to be acquired as of March 5, 1987; (ii) the acquirer is authorized to acquire control of the savings association pursuant to the emergency acquisition provisions of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act ; or (iii) the statutes of the state in which the association to be acquired is located specifically permit associations to be acquired by the state-chartered associations or savings and loan holding companies located in the state where the acquiring entity is located (or by a holding company that controls such state-chartered savings associations).

  Regulation of Quaint Oak Bank
 
 Pennsylvania Banking Law.  The Pennsylvania Banking Code contains detailed provisions governing the organization, location of offices, rights and responsibilities of directors, officers, employees and members, as well as corporate powers, savings and investment operations and other aspects of Quaint Oak Bank and its affairs.  The Pennsylvania Banking Code delegates extensive rulemaking power and administrative discretion to the Pennsylvania Department of Banking so that the supervision and regulation of state-chartered savings banks may be flexible and readily responsive to changes in economic conditions and in savings and lending practices.
  19
  One of the purposes of the Pennsylvania Banking Code is to provide savings banks with the opportunity to be competitive with each other and with other financial institutions existing under other Pennsylvania laws and other state, federal and foreign laws.  A Pennsylvania savings bank may locate or change the location of its principal place of business and establish an office anywhere in the Commonwealth, with the prior approval of the Pennsylvania Department of Banking.
 
 The Pennsylvania Department of Banking generally examines each savings bank not less frequently than once every two years.  Although the Pennsylvania Department of Banking may accept the examinations and reports of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation in lieu of its own examination, the present practice is for the Pennsylvania Department of Banking to conduct individual examinations.  The Pennsylvania Department of Banking may order any savings bank to discontinue any violation of law or unsafe or unsound business practice and may direct any trustee, officer, attorney or employee of a savings bank engaged in an objectionable activity, after the Pennsylvania Department of Banking has ordered the activity to be terminated, to show cause at a hearing before the Pennsylvania Department of Banking why such person should not be removed.
 
 Insurance of Accounts.  The deposits of Quaint Oak Bank are insured to the maximum extent permitted by the Deposit Insurance Fund, administered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, and are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.  As insurer, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation is authorized to conduct examinations of, and to require reporting by, insured institutions.  It also may prohibit any insured institution from engaging in any activity determined by regulation or order to pose a serious threat to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
 
 The FDIC has implemented a risk-based premium system that provides for quarterly assessments based on an insured institution’s ranking in one of four risk categories based upon supervisory and capital evaluations.  The assessment rate for an individual institution is determined according to a formula based on a weighted average of the institution’s individual CAMELS component ratings plus either five financial ratios or, in the case of an institution with assets of $10.0 billion or more, the average ratings of its long-term debt.  In February 2009, the FDIC adopted a final regulation that provided for the replenishment of the Deposit Insurance Fund over a period of seven years.  The restoration plan changed the FDIC’s base assessment rates and the risk based assessment system.  Well capitalized institutions (generally those with CAMELS composite ratings of 1 or 2) are grouped in Risk Category I and assessed for deposit insurance at an annual rate of between 12 and 14 basis points. Institutions in Risk Categories II, III and IV are assessed at annual rates of 17, 35 and 50 basis points, respectively.  Changes to the risk based assessment system include higher premiums for institutions that rely significantly on excessive amounts of brokered deposits, including CDARS, higher premiums for excessive use of secured liabilities, including Federal Home Loan Bank advances, lower premiums for smaller institutions with very high capital levels, and adding financial ratios and debt issuer ratings to the premium calculations for banks with over $10 billion in assets, while providing a reduction for their unsecured debt.
 
 In addition, all institutions with deposits insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation are required to pay assessments to fund interest payments on bonds issued by the Financing Corporation, a mixed-ownership government corporation established to recapitalize a predecessor to the Deposit Insurance Fund.  The assessment rate is adjusted quarterly.  These assessments will continue until the Financing Corporation bonds mature in 2019.
  20
  The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation may terminate the deposit insurance of any insured depository institution, including Quaint Oak Bank, if it determines after a hearing that the institution has engaged or is engaging in unsafe or unsound practices, is in an unsafe or unsound condition to continue operations, or has violated any applicable law, regulation, order or any condition imposed by an agreement with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.  It also may suspend deposit insurance temporarily during the hearing process for the permanent termination of insurance, if the institution has no tangible capital.  If insurance of accounts is terminated, the accounts at the institution at the time of the termination, less subsequent withdrawals, shall continue to be insured for a period of six months to two years, as determined by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.  Management is aware of no existing circumstances which would result in termination of Quaint Oak Bank’s deposit insurance.
 
 On May 22, 2009, the FDIC announced a five basis point special assessment on each insured depository institution’s assets minus its Tier 1 capital as of June 30, 2009. The FDIC collected the special assessment on September 30, 2009.  Based on our assets and Tier 1 capital at June 30, 2009, the impact of the special assessment was approximately $39,000, which was expensed in the second quarter of fiscal 2009.
 
 On November 12, 2009, the FDIC adopted regulations that required insured depository institutions to prepay on December 30, 2009 their estimated assessments for the fourth calendar quarter of 2009 through the fourth quarter of 2012.  The new regulations base the assessment rate for the fourth calendar quarter of 2009 and for 2010 on each institution’s total base assessment rate for the third quarter of 2009, modified to assume that the assessment rate in effect on September 30, 2009 had been in effect for the entire third quarter, and the assessment rate for 2011 and 2012 on the modified third quarter assessment base, adjusted quarterly for an estimated 5% annual growth rate in the assessment base through the end of 2012.  Under the prepaid assessment rule, we made a payment of $405,000 to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation on December 30, 2009, and recorded $356,000 of this payment as a prepaid expense.  The prepaid balance will be reduced by the actual expense for our quarterly assessments, until the balance is exhausted.  Depending on how our actual assessments compare to the estimated assessments, the prepaid balance may be exhausted earlier than or later than the planned three year time period.
 
 Capital Requirements.  The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation has promulgated regulations and adopted a statement of policy regarding the capital adequacy of state-chartered savings banks which, like Quaint Oak Bank, are not members of the Federal Reserve System.  These requirements are substantially similar to those adopted by the Federal Reserve Board regarding bank holding companies.
 
 The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation’s capital regulations establish a minimum 3.0% Tier I leverage capital requirement for the most highly-rated state-chartered, non-member banks, with an additional cushion of at least 100 to 200 basis points for all other state-chartered, non-member banks, which effectively will increase the minimum Tier I leverage ratio for such other banks to 4.0% to 5.0% or more.  Under the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation’s regulation, highest-rated banks are those that the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation determines are not anticipating or experiencing significant growth and have well diversified risk, including no undue interest rate risk exposure, excellent asset quality, high liquidity, good earnings and, in general, which are considered a strong banking organization and are rated composite 1 under the Uniform Financial Institutions Rating System.  Leverage or core capital is defined as the sum of common stockholders’ equity (including retained earnings), noncumulative perpetual preferred stock and related surplus, and minority interests in consolidated subsidiaries, minus all intangible assets other than certain qualifying supervisory goodwill and certain purchased mortgage servicing rights.
  21
  The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation also requires that savings banks meet a risk-based capital standard.  The risk-based capital standard for savings banks requires the maintenance of total capital (which is defined as Tier I capital and supplementary (Tier 2) capital) to risk weighted assets of 8%.  In determining the amount of risk-weighted assets, all assets, plus certain off balance sheet assets, are multiplied by a risk-weight of 0% to 100%, based on the risks the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation believes are inherent in the type of asset or item.  The components of Tier I capital are equivalent to those discussed above under the 3% leverage capital standard.  The components of supplementary capital include certain perpetual preferred stock, certain mandatory convertible securities, certain subordinated debt and intermediate preferred stock and general allowances for loan and lease losses.  Allowance for loan and lease losses includable in supplementary capital is limited to a maximum of 1.25% of risk-weighted assets. Overall, the amount of capital counted toward supplementary capital cannot exceed 100% of core capital.
 
 Quaint Oak Bank is also subject to more stringent Pennsylvania Department of Banking capital guidelines.  Although not adopted in regulation form, the Pennsylvania Department of Banking utilizes capital standards requiring a minimum of 6% leverage capital and 10% risk-based capital.  The components of leverage and risk-based capital are substantially the same as those defined by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
 
 At December 31, 2009, Quaint Oak Bank’s capital ratios exceeded each of its capital requirements.  See Note 14 to the notes to our financial statements included in Exhibit 13.0 hereto.
 
 Activities and Investments of Insured State-Chartered Savings Banks.  The activities and equity investments of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation-insured, state-chartered savings banks are generally limited to those that are permissible for national banks.  Under regulations dealing with equity investments, an insured state bank generally may not directly or indirectly acquire or retain any equity investment of a type, or in an amount, that is not permissible for a national bank.  An insured state bank is not prohibited from, among other things:
 
 ●
acquiring or retaining a majority interest in a subsidiary;
 
 ●
investing as a limited partner in a partnership the sole purpose of which is direct or indirect investment in the acquisition, rehabilitation or new construction of a qualified housing project, provided that such limited partnership investments may not exceed 2% of the bank’s total assets;
 
 ●
acquiring up to 10% of the voting stock of a company that solely provides or reinsures directors’, trustees’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage or bankers’ blanket bond group insurance coverage for insured depository institutions; and
 
 ●
acquiring or retaining the voting shares of a depository institution if certain requirements are met.
 
 The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation has adopted regulations pertaining to the other activity restrictions imposed upon insured state banks and their subsidiaries.  Pursuant to such regulations, insured state banks engaging in impermissible activities may seek approval from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation to continue such activities.  State banks not engaging in such activities but that desire to engage in otherwise impermissible activities either directly or through a subsidiary may apply for approval from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation to do so; however, if such bank fails to meet the minimum capital requirements or the activities present a significant risk to the Deposit Insurance Fund, such application will not be approved by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.  Pursuant to this authority, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation has determined that investments in certain majority-owned subsidiaries of insured state banks do not represent a significant risk to the deposit insurance funds.  Investments permitted under that authority include real estate activities and securities activities.
  22
  Restrictions on Capital Distributions.Office of Thrift Supervision regulations govern capital distributions by savings institutions, which include cash dividends, stock repurchases and other transactions charged to the capital account of a savings institution to make capital distributions.  These regulations apply to Quaint Oak Bancorp because Quaint Oak Bank is considered a savings association for certain purposes under Office of Thrift Supervision regulations.  Under applicable regulations, a savings association must file an application for Office of Thrift Supervision approval of the capital distribution if:
 
 ●
the total capital distributions for the applicable calendar year exceed the sum of the institution’s net income for that year to date plus the institution’s retained net income for the preceding two years;
 
 ●
the institution would not be at least adequately capitalized following the distribution;
 
 ●
the distribution would violate any applicable statute, regulation, agreement or Office of Thrift Supervision-imposed condition; or
 
 ●
the institution is not eligible for expedited treatment of its filings with the Office of Thrift Supervision.
 
 If an application is not required to be filed, state savings banks that elect to be treated as savings associations such as Quaint Oak Bank and which are a subsidiary of a holding company (as well as certain other institutions) must still file a notice with the Office of Thrift Supervision at least 30 days before the board of directors declares a dividend or approves a capital distribution.
 
 A savings association that either before or after a proposed capital distribution fails to meet its then applicable minimum capital requirement or that has been notified that it needs more than normal supervision may not make any capital distributions without the prior written approval of the Office of Thrift Supervision.  In addition, the Office of Thrift Supervision may prohibit a proposed capital distribution, which would otherwise be permitted by Office of Thrift Supervision regulations, if the Office of Thrift Supervision determines that such distribution would constitute an unsafe or unsound practice.
 
 The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation prohibits an insured depository institution from paying dividends on its capital stock or interest on its capital notes or debentures (if such interest is required to be paid only out of net profits) or distributing any of its capital assets while it remains in default in the payment of any assessment due the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.  Quaint Oak Bank is currently not in default in any assessment payment to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
 
 Privacy Requirements of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act.  The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 provided for sweeping financial modernization for commercial banks, savings banks, securities firms, insurance companies, and other financial institutions operating in the United States.  Among other provisions, the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act places limitations on the sharing of consumer financial information with unaffiliated third parties.  Specifically, the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act requires all financial institutions offering financial products or services to retail customers to provide such customers with the financial institution’s privacy policy and provide such customers the opportunity to “opt out” of the sharing of personal financial information with unaffiliated third parties.  Quaint Oak Bank currently has a privacy protection policy in place and believes such policy is in compliance with the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and its implementing regulations.
  23
  Anti-Money Laundering.On October 26, 2001, in response to the events of September 11, 2001, the President of the United States signed into law the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (referred to as the USA PATRIOT Act).  The USA PATRIOT Act amended the Bank Secrecy Act to significantly expand the responsibilities of financial institutions, including insured state savings banks such as Quaint Oak Bank, in preventing the use of the U.S. financial system to fund terrorist activities.  Title III of the USA PATRIOT Act provides for a significant overhaul of the U.S. anti-money laundering regime.  Among other provisions, it requires financial institutions operating in the United States to develop new anti-money laundering compliance programs, due diligence policies and controls to ensure the detection and reporting of money laundering. Such compliance programs are intended to supplement existing compliance requirements, also applicable to financial institutions, under the Bank Secrecy Act and the Office of Foreign Assets Control Regulations.  Quaint Oak Bank has established policies and procedures to ensure compliance with the USA PATRIOT Act’s provisions.
 
 Regulatory Enforcement Authority.  The federal banking laws provide substantial enforcement powers available to federal banking regulators.  This enforcement authority includes, among other things, the ability to assess civil money penalties, to issue cease-and-desist or removal orders and to initiate injunctive actions against banking organizations and institution-affiliated parties, as defined.  In general, these enforcement actions may be initiated for violations of laws and regulations and unsafe or unsound practices.  Other actions or inactions may provide the basis for enforcement action, including misleading or untimely reports filed with regulatory authorities.
  TAXATION
 
 Federal Taxation
 
 General.  Quaint Oak Bancorp and Quaint Oak Bank are subject to federal income tax provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, in the same general manner as other corporations with some exceptions listed below.  For federal income tax purposes, Quaint Oak Bancorp intends to file a consolidated federal income tax return with its wholly owned subsidiaries on a fiscal year basis.  The applicable federal income tax expense or benefit will be properly allocated to each entity based upon taxable income or loss calculated on a separate company basis.
 
 Method of Accounting.  For federal income tax purposes, income and expenses are reported on the accrual method of accounting and Quaint Oak Bancorp files its federal income tax return using a December 31 fiscal year end.
 
 Bad Debt Reserves.  The Small Business Job Protection Act of 1996 eliminated the use of the reserve method of accounting for bad debt reserves by savings institutions, effective for taxable years beginning after 1995.  Prior to that time, Quaint Oak Bank was permitted to establish a reserve for bad debts and to make additions to the reserve.  These additions could, within specified formula limits, be deducted in arriving at taxable income.  As a result of the Small Business Job Protection Act, savings associations must use the specific charge-off method in computing their bad debt deduction beginning with their 1996 federal tax return.
  24
  Taxable Distributions and Recapture.  Prior to the Small Business Job Protection Act, bad debt reserves created prior to January 1, 1988 were subject to recapture into taxable income if a savings bank failed to meet certain thrift asset and definitional tests.  New federal legislation eliminated these thrift related recapture rules.  However, under current law, pre-1988 reserves remain subject to recapture should a savings bank make certain non-dividend distributions or cease to maintain a savings bank charter.  At December 31, 2007, Quaint Oak Bank did not have federal pre-1988 reserves subject to recapture.
  Minimum Tax.  The Internal Revenue Code imposes an alternative minimum tax (“AMT”) at a rate of 20% on a base of regular taxable income plus certain tax preferences (“alternative minimum taxable income” or “AMTI”).  The AMT is payable to the extent such AMTI is in excess of an exemption amount.  Net operating losses can offset no more than 90% of AMTI.  Certain payments of alternative minimum tax may be used as credits against regular tax liabilities in future years.  Quaint Oak Bancorp has not been subject to the AMT nor does it have any such amounts available as credits for carryover.
 
 Corporate Dividends Received Deduction.  Quaint Oak Bancorp may exclude from income 100% of dividends received from a member of the same affiliated group of corporations.  The corporate dividends received deduction is 80% in the case of dividends received from corporations, which a corporate recipient owns less than 80%, but at least 20% of the distribution corporation.  Corporations that own less than 20% of the stock of a corporation distributing a dividend may deduct only 70% of dividends received.
 
 Other Matters.Quaint Oak Bank has not been audited by the IRS during the last five years.
  State and Local Taxation
  Pennsylvania Taxation.  Quaint Oak Bancorp is subject to the Pennsylvania Corporate Net Income Tax and Capital Stock and Franchise Tax.  The Corporation Net Income Tax rate for 2009 is 9.99% and is imposed on unconsolidated taxable income for federal purposes with certain adjustments.  In general, the Capital Stock and Franchise Tax is a property tax imposed on a corporation’s capital stock value at a statutorily defined rate, such value being determined in accordance with a fixed formula based upon average net income and net worth.
 
 Quaint Oak Bank is subject to tax under the Pennsylvania Mutual Thrift Institutions Tax Act (the “MTIT”), as amended to include thrift institutions having capital stock.  Pursuant to the MTIT, the tax rate is 11.5%.  The MTIT exempts Quaint Oak Bank from other taxes imposed by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for state income tax purposes and from all local taxation imposed by political subdivisions, except taxes on real estate and real estate transfers.  The MTIT is a tax upon net earnings, determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles with certain adjustments.  The MTIT, in computing income under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, allows for the deduction of interest earned on state and federal obligations, while disallowing a percentage of thrift’s interest expense deduction in the proportion of interest income on those securities to the overall interest income of Quaint Oak Bank.  Net operating losses, if any, thereafter can be carried forward three years for MTIT purposes.
 
 Quaint Oak Bank’s three active subsidiaries (Quaint Oak Mortgage, Quaint Oak Real Estate and Quaint Oak Abstract) and one inactive subsidiary (Quaint Oak Insurance) are subject to the Pennsylvania Capital Stock and Franchise Tax.

 No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15(d)-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) occurred during the fourth fiscal quarter of fiscal 2009 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
 
 Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
 Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining an adequate system of internal control over financial reporting. An adequate system of internal control encompasses the processes and procedures that have been established by management to:
 
 ●
Maintain records that accurately reflect the Company’s transactions;
 
 ●
Prepare financial statements and footnote disclosures in accordance with GAAP that can be relied upon by external users;
  28
  ●
Prevent and detect unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect of the financial statements.

Based on our evaluation under the framework in Internal Control – Integrated Framework, management concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2009.  Furthermore, during the conduct of its assessment, management identified no material weakness in its financial reporting control system.
 
 This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to a temporary rule of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permits the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
