NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
NOTE 1 SUBSEQUENT EVENT
On July 26, 2007, Boardwalk Bancorp, Inc. (Nasdaq BORD)(Boardwalk or Bancorp), Boardwalk
Bank, Cape Savings Bank (Cape Savings), and Cape Bancorp, Inc. (Cape Bancorp), a new
corporation being organized to facilitate the conversion of Cape Savings, entered into an Agreement
and Plan of Reorganization (the Merger Agreement).
Subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, Bancorp will be merged with and
into Cape Bancorp with Cape Bancorp as the surviving entity (the Merger). Upon effectiveness of
the Merger, each outstanding share of Bancorp, other than those shares owned by Bancorp, Cape
Bancorp, Cape Savings or their subsidiaries, will be converted into the right to receive either
$23.00 in cash or 2.3 shares of Cape Bancorp common stock, subject to the election and proration
procedures set forth in the Merger Agreement which require that 50% of the merger consideration
will consist of Cape Bancorp common stock and 50% of the merger consideration will consist of cash.
The Merger Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants of Bancorp
and Cape Bancorp, including, among others, covenants by Bancorp to conduct its business in the
usual, regular and ordinary course during the interim period between the execution of the Merger
Agreement and completion of the Merger, and to call a meeting of Bancorp shareholders to consider
approval of the Merger, and covenants by Cape Bancorp and Cape Savings to take all reasonable steps
necessary to complete the conversion of Cape Savings from mutual to stock form of organization
Completion of the Merger is subject to various conditions, including completion of the
conversion of Cape Savings from mutual to stock form of organization, which conversion will require
the approval of the depositors of Cape Savings and completion of a registered offering of shares of
Cape Bancorp common stock in a subscription offering and, if necessary, a community offering and/or
syndicated community offering. Completion of the Merger is also conditioned on the approval of the
Merger Agreement by Bancorps shareholders, the receipt of the required regulatory approvals, the
delivery of a customary legal opinion as to the federal tax treatment of the Merger, and other
customary conditions for transactions such as the Merger.
The Merger is presently expected to close in the first quarter of 2008. A copy of the Merger
Agreement is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to Bancorps Current Report on Form 8-K filed on August 1, 2007.
NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Business
Boardwalk Bank (Bank) was incorporated under the laws of the State of New Jersey on June 24,
1999. We provide a full range of banking services to individual and corporate customers at our
branch offices located in Linwood, Galloway Township, Margate City, Egg Harbor Township, Cape May
Court House, and Cape May City, New Jersey, our lending offices in Linwood and Vineland, New Jersey and on a limited basis on the Internet. The Bank is a New Jersey state
chartered commercial bank, the deposits of which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance
Company (FDIC). We are subject to competition from other financial institutions and other
financial service companies with respect to these services and customers.
Effective July 1, 2006, the Bank formed Bancorp as a bank holding company for the Bank. Each
issued and outstanding share of common stock of the Bank was automatically, without any action on
the part of shareholders, converted on July 1, 2006 into one share of common stock of Boardwalk.
Each issued and outstanding warrant of the Bank was also automatically converted on July 1, 2006
into one warrant of Boardwalk. The transaction was accounted for in a manner similar to a pooling
of interests and, accordingly, amounts in the financial statements prior to July 1, 2006 represent
the previously reported amounts for the Bank as Bancorp had no activity prior to that point.
Basis of Financial Statement Presentation
The financial statements reflect the consolidated accounts of Bancorp. Such statements have
been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and applicable to
the banking industry. The information for the interim periods is unaudited and includes all
adjustments that are of a normal recurring nature and that management believes to be necessary for
fair presentation. Results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results
that may be expected for the full year.
Page 7 of 40
Use of Estimates
In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from such estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to
significant change in the near term include the determination of the allowance for loan losses.
Investment Securities
Debt and equity securities are classified as either held to maturity (HTM), available for
sale (AFS) or at fair market value (Trading). Investment securities that we have the positive
intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as HTM securities and reported at amortized
cost. Investment securities not classified as HTM nor held for the purpose of trading in the near
term are classified as AFS securities and reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses
excluded from earnings and reported as accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss), a separate
component of stockholders equity, net of tax. Investments accounted for at fair market value
(Trading) are reported at fair value with unrealized gains and losses reported in earnings. We
currently do not engage in any trading activities. Management determines the appropriate
classification of securities at the time of purchase. In addition, management reviews the existing
portfolio classifications for appropriateness.
AFS securities include securities that management intends to use as part of its
asset/liability management strategy and that may be sold in response to changes in market interest
rates and related changes in the securities prepayment or credit risk or to meet liquidity needs.
Amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts on debt securities are recognized in
interest income using a constant yield method. Gains and losses on sales of investment securities
are computed as of the settlement date on the specific identification basis and included in
non-interest income. The unrealized gain or loss at the time a security is transferred from
available for sale to held to maturity is amortized over the remaining life of that security.
We recently undertook a balance sheet restructuring program designed to reduce interest rate
risk and improve net interest margin. We initially intended to elect early adoption of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and
Liabilities (SFAS 159) and account for the restructuring under the transition provisions of SFAS
159. Subsequent to the Companys original decision to early adopt SFAS 159, clarifications of the
interpretation of the application of that Statement by applicable regulatory and industry bodies,
including the AICPAs Center for Audit Quality, led us to conclude that the application of SFAS 159
to our transactions might be inconsistent with the intent and spirit of the statement.
Consequently, we decided not to early-adopt SFAS 159. Based on our current understanding of the
views of applicable regulatory agencies and bodies, we have reported the investment securities in
our restructuring program that were designated for sale at March 31, 2007 and subsequently sold in
April 2007 as being other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2007. Accordingly, we have
recognized a charge to earnings for other than temporary impairment of $1,524,000 for the
three-month period ended March 31, 2007, to reflect the difference between book carrying value and
market value. Changes in market values of the investment securities sold in our restructuring
program between March 31, 2007 and the actual sale date in April 2007 resulted in net gains on sale
of $95,035.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts Receivable includes a program called Business Manager/Med Cash. Business Manager/Med
Cash is a program that enables us to purchase at a discount and manage the accounts receivable of
credit-worthy merchants with required repurchase of delinquent accounts by the merchant and with
the merchants repurchase obligation supported by a cash collateral account. The purchase of the
merchants accounts receivable is recognized as accounts receivable in our financial statements.
Other Assets
Other Assets include prepaid accounts and deferred tax asset accounts.
Borrowings
Borrowings are reverse repurchase agreements with brokers or reverse repurchase agreements and
advances with the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York (FHLBNY).
Page 8 of 40
Loans
Loans are stated at the principal amount outstanding, net of deferred loan fees and costs.
Interest income is accrued on the principal amount outstanding using the interest method. Loan
origination fees and related direct costs are deferred and amortized to income over the term of the
respective loan and loan commitment period as a yield adjustment.
Non-accrual loans are those on which the accrual of interest has ceased. Non-consumer loans
are generally placed on non-accrual status if, in the opinion of management, collection is
doubtful, or when principal or interest is past due 90 days or more and collateral is insufficient
to cover principal and interest. Interest accrued, but not collected at the date a loan is placed
on non-accrual status, is reversed and charged against interest income. Subsequent cash receipts
are applied either to the outstanding principal or recorded as interest income, depending on
managements assessment of ultimate collectibility of principal and interest. Loans are returned to
an accrual status when the borrowers ability to make periodic principal and interest payments has
returned to normal (i.e. brought current with respect to principal or interest or restructured) and
the paying capacity of the borrower and/or the underlying collateral is deemed sufficient to cover
principal and interest. Consumer loans are not automatically placed on non-accrual status when
principal or interest payments are 90 days past due, but in most instances, are charged-off when
deemed uncollectible or after reaching 120 days past due.
Impaired loans are measured based on the present value of expected future discounted cash
flows, the market price of the loan or the fair value of the underlying collateral if the loan is
collateral dependent. The recognition of interest income on impaired loans is the same as for
non-accrual loans discussed above. We had no impaired loans at September 30, 2007 or December 31,
2006.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses charged to operating expense reflects the amount deemed
appropriate by management to provide for known and inherent losses of the existing loan portfolio.
Managements judgment is based on the evaluation of individual loans, past experience, the
assessment of current economic conditions, and other relevant factors. Based on all of these
factors, loans are grouped by relative risk and risk factors assigned to each category.
Appropriate reserves are determined for each category based on the risk factors established for
that category. Loans or borrowers exhibiting credit deterioration are excluded from these
calculations and are assigned specific reserves based on their risk classification.
All commercial borrowers, consumer loans and residential mortgage loans are periodically
reviewed for any evidence of credit quality deterioration. Such factors as delinquencies, late
payment history, company earnings performance and cash flow, downturns in a particular industry and
specific changes in the local business environment that may affect a particular business are all
considered in identifying weakening credit situations. Results of each assessment are assigned a
risk rating, reported in terms of a classification (Superior, Pass, Management Attention, Special
Mention, Substandard, Doubtful and Loss). Associated with each classification is a defined set of
characteristics that are reflective of the particular level of risk. These defined characteristics
provide a common bank-wide basis for quantifying risk so that each loan receives equal assessment.
A third party loan review is conducted annually on all loans over $500,000.
Loan losses are charged directly against the allowance for loan losses and recoveries on
previously charged-off loans are added to the allowance.
Management relies significantly on estimates to determine the allowance for loan losses.
Consideration is given to a variety of factors in establishing these estimates including current
economic conditions, diversification of the loan portfolio, delinquency statistics, borrowers
perceived financial and managerial strengths, the adequacy of underlying collateral, if collateral
dependent, or present value of future cash flows, and other relevant factors. Since the allowance
for loan losses is dependent, to a great extent, on conditions that may be beyond our control, it
is at least reasonably possible that managements estimates of the allowance for loan losses and
actual results could differ in the near term.
In addition, regulatory authorities, as an integral part of their examinations, periodically
review the allowance for loan losses. They may require additions to the allowance based upon their
judgments about information available to them at the time of examination.
Premises and Equipment
Premises and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization.
Depreciation and amortization are calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful
lives of the assets as follows: buildings 39 years; equipment and
Page 9 of 40
computer hardware 3 to 10
years; and software 3 years. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations
as incurred. Gains or losses upon disposition are reflected in earnings as realized. Land is
carried at cost.
Other Real Estate Owned
Other real estate owned is comprised of properties acquired through foreclosure proceedings or
acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure. Other real estate owned is recorded at the lower of
the carrying value of the loan or the fair value of the property, net of estimated selling costs.
Costs relating to the development or improvement of the properties are capitalized while expenses
related to the operation and maintenance of properties are expensed as incurred. Gains and losses
upon disposition are reflected in earnings as realized.
Income Taxes
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences
attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and
liabilities and their respective tax bases, as well as operating loss carry forwards. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in
the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect
on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the
period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is established against deferred tax
assets when, in the judgment of management, it is more likely than not that such deferred tax
assets will not become realizable.
Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share is calculated on the basis of the weighted average number of shares
outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is calculated on the basis of the weighted average number
of shares outstanding plus the weighted average number of additional dilutive shares.
Stock Options
Prior to the formation of Bancorp, the Bank maintained two stock option compensation plans, a
non-qualified plan for the original members of the board of directors of the Bank and a qualified
plan for the employees of the Bank. Prior to January 1, 2006, we accounted for these plans under
the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25,
Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees,
and related interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation cost was reflected in
net income, as all options granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to the market
value of the underlying common stock on the date of the grant. The plans were assumed by Bancorp
upon its formation. Options to purchase Bank common stock were converted to options to purchase
Bancorp common stock.
We sold 1,165,000 warrants to purchase our common stock during 2003. At June 30, 2006 these
warrants were dilutive and expired on December 31, 2006.
In December 2004, the Bank paid a 5% stock dividend that resulted in adjustments to the
outstanding options. Each option is now convertible to 1.05 shares of Bancorp common stock.
The fair value of each option granted in 2004 using the Black Scholes option pricing model was
$4.93. Significant assumptions used in the model included a risk-free rate of return of 3.9667%,
expected option life of ten years, a 20.515% volatility rate, and annual dividend of $.10. For the
options granted in 2002 using the Black Scholes option pricing model the fair value of each option
was $3.60. Significant assumptions used in the model included a risk-free rate of return of
3.817%, expected option life of ten years, a 24% volatility rate, and annual dividend of $.075. The
fair value of each option granted in 2000 using the Black Scholes option pricing model was $3.12.
Significant assumptions used in the model included a risk-free rate of return of 4.891%, a .01%
volatility rate, expected option life of ten years and no dividends.
We adopted FASB 123R for financial statements beginning January 1, 2006. FASB 123R requires
that expenses attributed to vesting options be accrued throughout the vesting period.
At the Banks annual meeting on April 27, 2006, in connection with the formation of the
holding company, shareholders of the Bank approved the Boardwalk Bancorp, Inc. 2006 Stock Incentive
Plan (the 2006 Plan). The 2006 Plan authorizes the issuance of 433,155 shares of common stock,
subject to certain annual increases, in the form of equity awards to employees and non-employee
directors of Bancorp and its subsidiaries. On January 22, 2007, Bancorp granted 400,000 options
with a vesting term of nine and a half years and an expiration date of January 19, 2017. Vesting of
the options accelerates in the event of a change of control of Bancorp. The

NOTE 4 REGULATORY RESTRICTIONS
We are subject to various regulatory capital requirements of federal and state 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 our financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework
for prompt corrective action, we must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative
measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under accounting
practices. Capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the
regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.
We must maintain certain minimum capital amounts and ratios to be considered adequately
capitalized as set forth in the table below. Management believes that we meet, as of September 30,
2007, all capital adequacy requirements to which we are subject. Management believes that we are
well capitalized at September 30, 2007 under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action
provisions of Section 3b of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act.

General
Boardwalk Bancorp, Inc. is a New Jersey business corporation and was organized as a bank
holding company effective July 1, 2006. Its subsidiary, Boardwalk Bank, is a New Jersey state
chartered commercial bank headquartered in Linwood, Atlantic County, New Jersey, in the southern
Atlantic shore region of the state. We conduct business from our main office in Linwood and branch
offices in Galloway Township, Margate City, Egg Harbor Township, Cape May Court House, and Cape May
City, New Jersey and lending offices in Linwood and Vineland, New Jersey and, on a limited basis,
on the Internet. Our second branch in Egg Harbor Township, New Jersey opened October 30, 2006. At
September 30, 2007, we had total assets of $445,343,000, total deposits of $311,249,000 and
shareholders equity of $49,885,000.
We are a member of the FHLBNY, and our deposits are insured up to the applicable limits by the
FDIC. The address of our principal executive office is 201 Shore Road, Linwood, New Jersey 08221,
and our telephone number is (609) 601-0600. Our website is www.boardwalkbank.com.
Our revenues are derived principally from interest on our loan and security portfolios. Our
primary sources of funds are deposits, capital, repayments, prepayments and maturities of loans,
repayments, prepayments and maturities of mortgage-backed and investment securities, and borrowed
funds. We face significant competition from other financial institutions, many of which are larger
organizations with more resources and locations.
Our results of operations are dependent primarily on net interest income, which is the
difference between the interest income earned on our interest-earning assets, such as loans and
securities, and the interest expense paid on our interest-bearing liabilities, such as deposits and
borrowed money. We also generate non-interest income such as service charges, income from bank
owned life insurance, income from Business Manager/Med Cash and other fees. Our non-interest
expenses primarily consist of employee compensation and benefits, occupancy expenses, marketing,
data processing costs and other operating expenses. We are subject to losses from our loan
portfolio if borrowers fail to meet their obligations. Our results of operations are also
significantly affected by general economic and competitive conditions, particularly changes in
market interest rates, government policies and actions of regulatory agencies.
Pending Merger
Given the increasingly competitive nature of the banking industry as a whole, our Board of
Directors believes the merger with Cape Bancorp is in the best interests of our customers,
employees and shareholders. We believe that the Boardwalk Bank approach to community banking can
be greatly enhanced by partnering with another outstanding community bank which has a long history
of providing quality financial products and services to the communities and markets it serves.
This transaction combines two well-respected community banking organizations creating a combined
franchise with over $1 billion in total assets.
The following discussion focuses on the major components of our operations and our intention
to conduct business in the usual, regular and ordinary course during the interim period between the
execution of the Merger Agreement and completion of the Merger. This discussion section should be
read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Current performance may
not be indicative of future performance.
Management Strategy
We established Boardwalk Bank based on the belief that there was and continues to be excellent
potential for a locally owned and managed commercial bank in our market area. As a result of
increased bank consolidations and mergers in recent years in New Jersey, many local banks have been
acquired by larger and out-of-state institutions. For example, some of the largest commercial
banks in New Jersey in terms of deposit market share have their headquarters in other states. We
believe that this consolidation and merger activity has made it more difficult for small and
mid-sized businesses to obtain prompt service and access to decision-makers in many financial
institutions. We address this need by offering quality, personalized, and friendly service
traditionally associated with local community banks.
Our business objective is to be recognized as a reliable and responsive provider of high
quality banking services to retail customers, small and mid-sized businesses and professional
practices, such as medical doctors and lawyers, located in our target market area of Atlantic, Cape
May and Cumberland counties, New Jersey. We actively pursue business relationships with our
targeted clientele through diligent calling efforts and by capitalizing on our extensive knowledge
of our markets communities and the businesses serving these communities. The members of our Board
of Directors and our loan officers have widespread business experience and contacts in our
marketplace and are an important source of new business opportunities. This combined in-depth
knowledge of our lending markets has contributed to our superior loan portfolio credit quality
since the inception of the Bank. We also offer customized products to meet the needs of our
customers, such as loans with variable payment features to account for the seasonal
Page 13 of 40
nature of certain of our customers businesses and courier service for deposit pickup. Our
goal is to establish deposit and lending relationships that are based on service, will result in
long-standing relationships and will lead to referrals from our satisfied customers.
Retail customer relationships are also important. We actively pursue retail deposit
relationships by designing our deposit products to meet our retail customers needs and price these
products to be amongst the most competitive in our markets.
An important element of our strategy is to hire bankers who have prior experience as well as
pre-existing business relationships in our markets. Our team of lenders and branch personnel has
prior experience at community banks and regional banks in our market. It is a fundamental belief
of management that having knowledge of our local markets is a critical element in making sound
credit decisions. This extensive knowledge of our local markets has allowed us to develop and
implement a highly focused and disciplined approach to lending to the vacation-related and other
businesses in our market area. We face a substantial challenge as we continue to expand our
commercial lending portfolio to find additional lending personnel with experience in our market
area. Management believes that the Bank is currently adequately staffed but also believes that the
Atlantic, Cape May and Cumberland counties labor pool for experienced commercial lenders is
limited. For this reason, we have developed an in-house lender training program.
We believe that our approach to building our customer base and our emphasis on service, when
combined with the application of sound banking principles, will create value for our shareholders.
Critical Accounting Matters
The discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations are based on
the Consolidated Financial Statements, which are prepared in conformity with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires management
to make estimates and assumptions affecting the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue
and expenses. Management evaluates the estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis, including
those related to the allowance for loan losses and deferred taxes. Management bases its estimates
on historical experience and various other factors and assumptions that are believed to be
reasonable under the circumstances. These form the basis for making judgments on the carrying
value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results
may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
The following is the critical accounting policy that involves more significant judgment and
estimates:
Allowance for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses charged to operating expense reflects the amount deemed
appropriate by management to provide for known and inherent losses in the existing loan portfolio.
Loan losses are charged directly against the allowance for loan losses and recoveries on previously
charged-off loans are added to the allowance.
Management relies significantly on estimates to determine the allowance for loan losses.
Consideration is given to a variety of factors in establishing these estimates including current
economic conditions, diversification of the loan portfolio, delinquency statistics, borrowers
perceived financial and managerial strengths, the adequacy of underlying collateral, if collateral
dependent, or present value of future cash flows, and other relevant factors. Since the allowance
for loan losses is dependent, to a great extent, on conditions that may be beyond our control, it
is at least reasonably possible that managements estimates of the allowance for loan losses and
actual results could differ in the near term.
In addition, regulatory authorities, as an integral part of their examinations, periodically
review the allowance for loan losses. They may require additions to the allowance based upon their
judgments about information available to them at the time of examination.
Income Taxes
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences
attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and
liabilities and their respective tax bases, as well as operating loss carry forwards. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in
the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect
on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the
period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is established against deferred tax
assets when, in the judgment of management, it is more likely than not that such deferred tax
assets will not become realizable.

Results of Operations
We reported a decrease of $237,000 or 30.0% in net income to $553,000 or $0.13 per diluted
share for the three months ended September 30, 2007 from $790,000 or $0.22 per diluted share for
the three months ended September 30, 2006.
Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2007 benefited from growth in loans and a
resultant growth in interest income that was offset by approximately $273,000, net of taxes, of
expenses associated with the merger with Cape Savings Bank. Interest income improved by $570,000
or 8.4% to $7,375,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2007 from $6,805,000 in the same
quarter of 2006. The increase in interest income included a 13.3% increase in interest on loans to
$5,627,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2007 from $4,966,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 2006. Continuing deposit competition and growth in interest bearing deposits
contributed to an increase in deposit interest expense. The cost of interest bearing deposits
increased from 3.93% for the three month period ended September 30, 2006 to 4.29% for the three
month period ended September 30, 2007. Deposit interest expense increased by $312,000 to
$3,197,000 for the third quarter of 2007 from $2,885,000 during the third quarter of 2006. Despite
the increase in deposit interest expense we experienced improved net interest margin as a result of
our first quarter asset restructuring that enabled us to reduce rates on certificates of deposit
and fund associated disintermediation (see
Net Interest Margin and Rate/Volume Analysis
below).
Interest expense on borrowings decreased as the Bank used proceeds from the first quarter asset
restructuring program to reduce borrowings. Interest expense on borrowings decreased to $829,000
for the three months ended September 30, 2007 from $888,000 for the three months ended September
30, 2006. There was no provision for loan losses for the three month period ended September 30,
2007 as loan growth during this period experienced a greater than usual seasonal decline. The
provision for the third quarter of 2006 was $75,000. Non-interest income increased to $485,000 for
the three months ended September 30, 2007 from $307,000 for the three months ended September 30,
2006. This increase is attributable to additional purchase of BOLI and an increase in BOLI income
of $30,000 and increases in fee income of $148,000.
The Bank reported a decrease of $1,676,000 in net income to $646,000 or $0.15 per diluted
share for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 from $2,322,000 or $0.65 per diluted share for
the nine months ended September 30, 2006, primarily as the result of the asset-restructuring
program during the first quarter of 2007, increases in operating expenses associated with growth of
the bank and merger related expenses. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 was
driven by growth in interest income resulting from continued loan growth. Interest income improved
by $2,287,000 or 11.8% to $21,657,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 from $19,370,000
for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The increase in interest income included a 15.6%
increase in interest on loans to $16,286,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 from
$14,092,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. Rising deposit rates and, to a lesser
degree, deposit growth contributed to an increase in deposit interest expense. The cost of
interest bearing deposits increased from 3.61% for the nine month period ending September 30, 2006
to 4.26% for the nine month period ending September 30, 2007. Deposit interest expense increased
by $1,597,000 to $9,167,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 from $7,570,000 during the
nine months ended September 30, 2006. Interest expense on borrowings also increased as the Bank
used borrowings to support asset growth during the first and second quarters of 2007. Interest
expense on borrowings increased to $2,754,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 from
$2,584,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The provision for loan losses for the
nine month period ended September 30, 2007 was $422,000 reflecting the growth in loans.
Non-interest income decreased to ($422,000) for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 from
$879,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. Our asset-restructuring program, designed to
reduce interest rate risk and improve net interest margin, resulted in pre-tax losses of $1,758,000
for the first and second quarters of 2007. Assets in our restructuring program that were
designated for sale at March 31, 2007 and subsequently sold in April 2007 were reported as other
than temporarily impaired at March 31, 2007 (see above; NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES,
Investment Securities
). Other than temporary impairment treatment requires us to value
these investments at market value with the difference between book carrying value and market value
being recognized as a component of current earnings for the three month period ended March 31,
2007. Changes in market values of the investment securities sold in our restructuring program
between March 31, 2007 and the actual sale date in April 2007 resulted in net gains on sale of
$95,035.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income is the most significant component of our operating income. Net interest
income depends upon the levels of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the
difference or spread between the respective yields earned and rates paid. The interest rate
spread is influenced by the overall interest rate environment and by competition. Net interest
margin is the interest income earned on interest earning assets less interest expense paid on
interest bearing liabilities, expressed as a percentage of earning assets.
Net interest income for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 grew from the quarter ended
September 30, 2006 reflecting the strengthening of our core earnings from continued loan growth.
Net interest income before provisions for loan losses increased $317,000 or 10.5% to $3,349,000 for
the three months ended September 30, 2007 from $3,032,000 for the three months ended September 30,
2006. Increases in interest bearing liability costs as a result of increases in rates exceeded
increases from growth in
Page 15 of 40
interest bearing account balances as strong deposit competition in the southern New Jersey
market continued to keep pressure on deposit rates (see
Net Interest Margin and Rate/Volume
Analysis
below). Volume growth in loans combined with yield improvements in investments from the
restructuring more than offset the decline in investment income and contributed to interest income
growth. Deposit interest expense increased by $312,000 to $3,197,000 for the third quarter of 2007
from $2,885,000 during the third quarter of 2006. Increases in deposit interest expense were
impacted by continued strong deposit competition. Interest expense on borrowings decreased from
declines in the amount of borrowed funds. Interest expense on borrowings decreased to $829,000 for
the three months ended September 30, 2007 from $888,000 for the three months ended September 30,
2006.
Improvements in net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 were
primarily the result of growth in loans combined with changes in interest rates on both loans and
investments and despite declines in investment volumes. Net interest income before provisions for
loan losses increased $520,000 or 5.6% to $9,736,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007
from $9,216,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. Growth in earning assets out-weighed
increases in interest expense from growth of deposits and borrowings for the nine months ended
September 30, 2007. Increases in volume of loans added $1,814,000 to interest income while growth
in interest bearing liabilities added $583,000 to interest expense. Increases in rates on deposits
and borrowings exceeded improvements in rates on investments and loans. Increases in rates on
loans and investments of $1,055,000 were eclipsed by an additional $1,184,000 from increases in
rates on deposits and borrowings. Changes in rates on investments were positively impacted by
portfolio restructuring. The net impact of changes in interest rates for the same periods was
($129,000).
Net Interest Margin and Rate/Volume Analysis
Our net interest margin improved during the three months ended September 30, 2007 from the
same period in the previous year. For the three months ended September 30, 2007, net interest
margin rose to 3.17% from 2.93% for the comparable period in the prior year. This improvement in
net interest margin reflects the yield improvements achieved as a result of the investment
portfolio restructuring and a consistent effort to reduce deposit interest rates. Yields on loans
have also had a positive impact on net interest margin, but to a lesser extent than the yield on
investments.
Average total loans were $301,721,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2007 compared
to $268,850,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2006 an increase of 12.2%. Growth in
deposits and reductions in investments were utilized to fund loan growth. Adjustments in the mix
of deposits and reductions in borrowings were utilized to help improve net interest margin.
Average interest-bearing liabilities were $374,894,000 for the three months ended September 30,
2007 down from $378,369,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2006.
Increases in interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2007 were driven
principally by loan growth and, to a lesser degree, by improved investment rates, offset by
declines in investment volumes. Total interest income for the three months ended September 30,
2007 increased $236,000 as a result of growth in asset balances (volume) and $334,000 from
increases in average interest rates. Net interest margin improvement for the three months ended
September 30, 2007 was supported by investment restructuring and more conservative certificate of
deposit pricing. Yields on interest-earning assets rose by 41 basis points from 6.57% in the third
quarter of 2006 to 6.98% for the third quarter of 2007. Continued competitive deposit pricing was
the primary cause of the cost of interest-bearing liabilities increasing by 30 basis points from
3.96% in the third quarter of 2006 to 4.26% for the third quarter of 2007.
During the third quarter of 2007 significant strides were made to improve net interest rate
margin from the first quarter of 2007. For the three months ended September 30, 2007 net interest
margin increased to 3.17% from 2.93% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 reflecting the
positive impacts of the investment portfolio restructuring and consistent efforts to reduce deposit
costs. Deposit costs were reduced by lowering certificate of deposit rates and introducing a
highly successful personal money market account.
Net interest margin increased for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 from the same
period in the previous year. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, net interest margin
rose to 3.10% from 3.08% for the comparable period in the prior year. Yields on interest-earning
assets rose by 44 basis points to 6.90% for the first nine months of 2007 from 6.46% in the first
nine months of 2006 while the cost of interest-bearing liabilities rose by 56 basis points to 4.24%
for the first nine months of 2007 from 3.68% in the first nine months of 2006. Loan yields rose as
a result of significant loan growth and higher loan rates on new loans.
Increases in total net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 from the
nine months ended September 30, 2006 can be attributed primarily to growth in net earning assets as
$649,000 of net interest income growth was the result of growth in average volumes and a decline
of $129,000 is attributable to changes in average rates. An increase in deposit and borrowing
rates
Page 16 of 40
offset all of the improvements in rates on earning assets. Increases in deposit and
borrowings average balances increased interest costs by $583,000 and increases in interest bearing
liability rates raised interest expense by $1,184,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007
from the nine months ended September 30, 2006.
Average interest-earning assets as a percent of total assets rose, as we added no new branches
to our branch network while experiencing significant growth in our loan portfolio. As a result of
this asset mix change, the ratio of average interest-earning assets to average interest-bearing
liabilities increased to 111.64% for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 from 108.63% for the
same period in 2006.
The following table sets forth, for the three month periods ended September 30, 2007 and
September 30, 2006, information regarding average balances of assets and liabilities, the total
dollar amounts of interest income from interest earning assets, interest expense on interest
bearing liabilities, resultant yields or costs, net interest income, net interest spread, net
interest margin and the ratio of interest earning assets to interest bearing liabilities. Non
accrual loans are included in the average loan balance.

In order to present pre-tax income and resultant yields on tax-exempt investments on a basis
comparable to those on taxable investments, a tax equivalent yield adjustment is made to interest income. The tax equilvalent
adjustment has been computed using a Federal income tax rate of 34%, and has the effect of increasing interest income by $51,000
and $64,000 for the three month period ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 respectively. The average yield on investments increased to 6.18%
from 5.99% for the three month period ended September 30, 2007 and increased to 5.34% from 5.15% for the three
month period ended September 30, 2006.
|
The following table sets forth, for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2007 and
September 30, 2006, information regarding average balances of assets and liabilities, the total
dollar amounts of interest income from interest earning assets, interest expense on interest
bearing liabilities, resultant yields or costs, net interest income, net interest spread, net
interest margin and the ratio of interest earning assets to interest bearing liabilities. Non
accrual loans are included in the average loan balance.

Rate/Volume Analysis
The following tables analyze the dollar amount changes in interest income and interest expense
for major components of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities. The tables
distinguish between (i) changes attributable to volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior
periods rate), (ii) changes attributable to rate (changes in rate multiplied by the prior periods
volume), and (iii) net change (the sum of the Average Volume columns and the Average Rate columns).
The change attributable to both rate and volume (changes in rate multiplied by changes in volume)
has been allocated to the change attributable to volume.

Interest Income
Total interest income increased to $7,375,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2007
from $6,805,000 for the three month period ended September 30, 2006 fueled primarily by loan growth
and, to a lesser degree, by increasing interest rates on the investment portfolio as a result of
the portfolio restructuring in the first quarter of 2007 (see discussions above on
Net Interest
Income
Page 20 of 40
and
Net Interest Margin and Rate/Volume Analysis
). The yield on interest earning assets was
6.98% and 6.57%, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006. The yields
on investments and loans were 5.99% and 7.40%, respectively, for the three months ended September
30, 2007 and 5.15% and 7.33%, respectively, for the same period in the prior year.
Total interest income increased to $21,657,000 for the nine months September 30, 2007 from
$19,370,000 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2006 benefiting from growth in loans.
The yield on interest earning assets was 6.90% and 6.46%, respectively, for the nine months ended
September 30, 2007 and 2006. The yields on investments and loans were 5.72% and 7.42%,
respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 5.05% and 7.23%, respectively, for
the same period in the prior year.
Interest Expense
Total interest expense was $4,026,000 for the three month period ended September 30, 2007 and
$3,773,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2006. Interest expense increased more from
increases in interest rates than growth in deposits. Deposit rates continued to be negatively
affected by competition for deposits during the third quarter of 2007. Efforts to control deposit
costs and improve net interest margin resulted in declines in certificates of deposit during the
third quarter of 2007. The shift in emphasis on cost was supported by strong growth in our new
personal money market account that is priced at rates below certificates of deposit account rates.
The cost of interest bearing deposits increased to 4.29% for the third quarter of 2007 as compared
to 3.93% for the third quarter of 2006. While we continue to make progress in developing
non-interest bearing demand deposit accounts, because of our strong deposit growth, our deposit mix
continues to be concentrated in interest bearing deposits consisting of time deposit, business
money market, business interest checking, interest checking deposit accounts and our new personal
money market account. The average balances of non-interest bearing accounts increased 8.4% to
$24,807,000 for the three month period ended September 30, 2007 from $22,893,000 for the three
month period ended September 30, 2006. Average non-interest bearing accounts as a percent of
average total deposits, improved to 7.7% as of September 30, 2007 as compared to 7.3% as of
September 30, 2006.
Continued strong competition affected most deposit categories during the third quarter of
2007. The average cost of savings accounts was 1.46% for the third quarter of 2007 compared to
1.33% for the third quarter of 2006. The average cost of certificates of deposit rose to 4.86% for
the three months ended September 30, 2007 from 4.49% for the three months ended September 30, 2006.
The average cost of interest bearing demand accounts decreased to 1.71% from 1.79%, respectively,
for the three months ended September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006. The average cost of
corporate money market deposits was 2.13% and 2.11%, respectively, for the three months ended
September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006. The decrease in the interest bearing demand accounts
cost can be attributed primarily to deposits transferred from higher rate interest checking tiers
to a new higher yield personal money market. The new personal money market account was developed
to combat higher rate money market accounts at competitor banks.
Interest costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 also reflected the impact of
competition. The cost of average interest-bearing deposits was 4.26% and 3.61%, respectively, for
the first nine months of 2007 and 2006. The average cost of savings accounts was 1.43% for the
first nine months of 2007 and 1.33% for the first nine months of 2006. The impact of increasing
competition is particularly evident in certificates of deposit and money market sensitive accounts
such as interest bearing demand accounts and corporate money market accounts. The average cost of
time deposits was 4.82% for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 up from 4.17% for the nine
months ended September 30, 2006. The average cost of interest bearing demand accounts was 1.72%
and 1.82%, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006. The
average cost of corporate money market deposits was 2.12% and 2.13%, respectively, for the nine
months ended September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006.
Interest Rate Sensitivity
The asset/liability management, or interest rate risk management, program is focused primarily
on evaluating and managing the composition of assets and liabilities in view of various interest
rate scenarios. Factors beyond our control, such as market interest rates and competition, may
also have an impact on our interest income and interest expense. In the absence of other factors,
the yield or return associated with our earning assets generally will increase from existing levels
when interest rates rise over an extended period of time and, conversely, interest income will
decrease when interest rates decline. In general, interest expense will increase when interest
rates rise over an extended period of time and, conversely, interest expense will decrease when
interest rates decline. These fluctuations in interest rates will impact not only interest
income/expense but also the market value of all interest-earning assets and interest-bearing
liabilities, other than those with a short-term maturity. At September 30, 2007, we do not have
any hedging transactions in place such as interest rate swaps, futures, caps or floors. We are not
directly subject to foreign currency exchange or commodity price risk.
Our primary objective in managing interest rate risk is to minimize the adverse impact of
changes in interest rates on our net interest income while creating an asset/liability structure
that maximizes earnings. The Investment/ALCO Committee of the Board of
Page 21 of 40
Directors of the Bank is
responsible for monitoring our interest rate risk exposure. We use computer-based simulation
models to assess the impact of changes in interest rates on our business plan. The model
incorporates managements business plan assumptions and related asset and liability yields, deposit
sensitivity and the size, composition and maturity or re-pricing characteristics of the balance
sheet. The assumptions are based on what management believes at that time to be the most likely
interest rate environment. Our models stress our business plan over a range of higher and lower
interest rate scenarios to measure the interest rate risk inherent in the business plan. Actual
results may differ from simulated results due to various factors including time, magnitude and
frequency of interest rate changes, the relationship or spread between various rates, loan pricing
and deposit sensitivity, and asset/liability strategies.
Interest Rate Risk Analysis.
The Board of Directors has established limits for interest rate risk in the form of
measurements of variability in net interest income. The established limit on variability for
interest rate changes is 20% for net interest income at plus 200 basis points and minus 200 basis
points. Our modeling technique enables us to identify potential variability in net interest income
resulting from changes in interest rates. Five modeling simulations are run under different
interest rate scenarios. The scenarios are no change in interest rates, increases of 100 and 200
basis points and decreases of 100 and 200 basis points. The interest rate changes are assumed to
occur instantaneously and persist for twelve months. Management believes that it is likely that
responses to significant changes in interest rates would result in adjustments to business
strategies and pricing during a twelve-month period reducing the value of interest rate risk
modeling beyond twelve months. If, at any time, our interest rate risk profile exceeds the policy
limits, it is the responsibility of the Investment/ALCO Committee to direct the adjustment of our
assets or liabilities mix or business strategies to reduce interest rate risk. Reduction in
interest rate risk is accomplished through adjustments to investment portfolio duration, the term
to maturity of borrowings, and choice of deposit product emphasis.
Our financial modeling simulates our cash flows, interest income, and interest expense from
earning assets and interest bearing liabilities for a twelve month period in each of the five
different interest environments using actual individual deposit, loan and investment maturities and
rates in the model calculations. Assumptions regarding the likelihood of prepayments on
residential mortgage loans and investments are made based on historical relationships between
interest rates and prepayments. Commercial loans with prepayment penalties are assumed to pay on
schedule to maturity. In actual practice, commercial borrowers may request and be granted interest
rate reductions during the life of a commercial loan due to competition from other financial
institutions and declining interest rates.

The following tables set forth our interest rate risk profile at September 30, 2007 and
December 31, 2006. The interest rate sensitivity of our assets and liabilities illustrated in the
following table would vary substantially if different assumptions were used or if actual experience
differs from that indicated by such assumptions.

The degree of variability, or risk to interest income, has been reduced by the actions we took
to restructure our assets. We continue to be liability sensitive relative to changes in general
levels of interest rates. This condition exists because the average term to maturity of our
deposit liabilities is shorter than the average remaining term to maturity of our earning assets.
Rising rates, therefore, have a negative effect on our net interest income while declining rates
can be expected to improve net interest income. Actual results are affected by the slope of the
yield curve as well as the general level of interest rates. Generally, a flat yield curve, as we
have experienced during much of 2007, will put pressure on net interest margin and, absent growth
in earning assets, have a negative impact on net interest income. The variation at both up and
down 200 basis points is well within the acceptable parameters identified by our Board of
Directors. The interest rate risk measurement technique presented here is a theoretical
measurement of relative risk employing instantaneous and sustained increases in interest rates with
no modification of strategies by management. In actual practice interest rates tend to change more
gradually over time permitting management to adjust operating strategies to suit changing economic
environments.
Interest Rate Risk Management and Asset Restructuring
During the first quarter of 2007, we undertook a balance sheet restructuring effort to reduce
our liability sensitivity. Our objective was to reduce the mismatch between the durations of our
assets and the duration of our liabilities that contributes to interest rate risk. Specific
investments were analyzed for interest rate risk. We decided to retain some investments with
longer durations and higher yields because of their contribution to our earnings. Other
investments were selected for restructuring because they possessed durations in excess of our
typical liability durations, had low yields and/or presented significant potential for duration
extension. Mortgage-backed securities (MBS) were reviewed for interest rate risk based on such
characteristics as weighted average coupon, original purpose for mortgage financing, geographic
location, loan to value ratios, previous and projected prepayment experience and credit qualities
that might affect timing of principal payment. MBS identified as having undesirable
characteristics that increased potential volatility in principal prepayment and, hence, increased
duration uncertainty were selected for restructuring. Agency and corporate securities were also
analyzed for excessive duration and potential duration volatility. Corporate and agency
investments possessing undesirable characteristics were also selected for restructuring.
Investments selected for restructuring were considered other than temporarily impaired and valued
at fair market value at March 31, 2007. During the three month period ended March 31, 2007,
$13,843,000 of these investments were sold and during April 2007 an additional $45,901,000 were
sold. Most of proceeds of these
Page 23 of 40
sales have been reinvested in investments with maturities matched
to specific interest bearing liability maturities to reduce the mismatch of asset liability
durations and reduce interest rate risk. Investments were matched with borrowings maturing in
three years or less. This matching reduces interest rate risk and enables us to take advantage of
higher yield provided by the current inverted yield curve. Sale proceeds not matched to specific
interest bearing liabilities were reinvested in short term agency securities to maintain liquidity
for anticipated loan originations. Further information regarding the accounting for our balance
sheet restructuring is presented below under the caption Investment Securities.
Non-Interest Income
Non-interest income for the three month period ended September 30, 2007 increased 58.0% or
$178,000 to $485,000 from $307,000 for the same period in the prior year. Non-interest income grew
because of increases in numbers of loan and deposit accounts and associated fees and an increase in
our investment in bank owned life insurance (BOLI). For the three months ended September 30,
2007, service charges, fees and other income of $390,000 consisted primarily of deposit service
charges and other deposit and loan fees of $184,000, merchant card services income of $43,000,
debit card interchange income of $29,000 and Business Manager/Med Cash receivables funding fees of
$133,000. BOLI income for this period was $95,000. For the three months ended September 30, 2006,
service charges, fees and other income of $242,000 consisted primarily of deposit service charges
and other deposit fees of $95,000, merchant card service income of $35,000, residential mortgage
origination income of $4,000, loan fees of $11,000, and Business Manager/Med Cash receivables
funding fees of $97,000. BOLI income for this period was $65,000. There were no losses or gains
on sales of securities.
Non-interest income totals for the nine month period ended September 30, 2007 decreased
$1,301,000 to ($422,000) from $879,000 for the same period in the prior year. The net loss from
other than temporary impairment associated with our portfolio restructuring was $1,524,000. Fee
income increased due to growth of loan and deposit accounts. For the nine months ended September
30, 2007, service charges, fees and other income of $946,000 consisted primarily of deposit service
charges and other deposit fees of $471,000, merchant card services income of $72,000, debit card
interchange income of $78,000 and Business Manager/Med Cash receivables funding fees of $323,000.
BOLI income for this period was $287,000. Losses on sales of securities and other assets were
$131,000. For the nine months ended September 30, 2006, service charges, fees and other income of
$691,000 consisted primarily of deposit service charges, fees, and other income of $197,000,
merchant card services income of $73,000, debit card interchange income of $52,000, residential
mortgage origination income of $36,000, loan fees of $39,000, and Business Manager/Med Cash
receivables funding fees of $293,000. BOLI income for this period was $197,000. Losses on sales of
securities and other assets were $8,000.
Non-Interest Expense
Non-interest expenses were impacted by both our overall growth in existing departments, the
continued expansion of our branch banking and lending networks and expenses associated with our
merger with Cape Savings Bank. While overall expense control continues to be good, our efficiency
ratios have increased as the growth of our operating infrastructure has continued during a period
when increasing competition has reduced our rate of loan portfolio growth. We believe it is
important to continue to position to expand our market share with appropriately placed additional
branches and loan production facilities such as our Cape May City and second Egg Harbor Township
branches and Vineland loan production office. Our efficiency ratio for the three months ended
September 30, 2007 was 81% compared to 69% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 77%
for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 compared to 66% for the nine months ended September
30, 2006.
For the three months ended September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006 non-interest expense was
$3,093,000 and $2,299,000, respectively. Non-interest expense for the third quarter of 2007
increased by approximately $413,000 from expenses
associated with the merger with Cape Savings Bank. The largest non-merger related component
of non-interest expense is compensation and benefit expense. For the three months ended September
30, 2007 and September 30, 2006 compensation and benefit expense was $1,500,000 and $1,299,000,
respectively. The increase of $201,000 in this category is attributable to increased salary
expense due to expanding staffing requirements resulting from our branch growth, salary merit
increases, increases in health insurance rates and the expense of the 2007 Director and Employee
stock option plan. Occupancy and equipment expenses were also impacted by branch office
expansion. For the three months ended September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006 occupancy expense
was $390,000 and $369,000, respectively. Data processing increased from $131,000 for the third
quarter of 2006 to $166,000 for the third quarter of 2007 reflecting primarily the increased costs
of additional loan and deposit accounts and additional branch locations. Marketing decreased by
$15,000 for the third quarter ending September 30, 2007 to $27,000 compared to $42,000 for the same
quarter in 2006. Professional services increased from $142,000 for the three month period ended
September 30, 2006 to $586,000 for the three month period ended September 30, 2007 reflecting
merger related expenses. Investor relations expense which represents the costs associated with
being listed on the NASDAQ Global Market decreased from $31,000 for the three month period ended
September 30, 2006 to $30,000 for the three month period ended September 30, 2007.
Page 24 of 40
For the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006 non-interest expense was
$8,265,000 and $6,583,000, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and
September 30, 2006 compensation and benefit expense was $4,455,000 and $3,732,000, respectively.
The increase of $723,000 in this category is attributable to increased salary expense due to
expanding staffing requirements resulting from our growth and merit increases in salaries.
Occupancy and equipment expenses also increased due to the growth in existing areas of the Bank.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006 occupancy expense was
$1,198,000 and $1,006,000, respectively. Data processing increased from $380,000 for the first
nine months of 2006 to $500,000 for the first nine months of 2007. Professional services increased
by $563,000 from $426,000 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2006 to $989,000 for the
nine month period ended September 30, 2007. This increase is primarily attributable to merger
related expense, increased accounting fees from the adoption and subsequent rescission of FAS
157/FAS 159 in the first quarter, retaining Sheshunoff Management Services, L.P. to review bank
operations, annual increases in accounting and audit fees due to growth in the Bank, additional
processing costs associated with deposit account growth and increased computer management expense
associated with network protection and management. Investor relations expense represents the costs
associated with being listed on the NASDAQ Global Market increased from $72,000 for the nine month
period ended September 30, 2006 to $90,000 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2007.
Other operating expenses increased by $101,000.
Provision for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses represents the amount necessary to be charged to operations to
bring the allowance for loan losses to a level that represents managements best estimate of known
and inherent losses in the existing loan portfolio. The amount of the provision for loan losses
and the amount of the allowance for loan losses is subject to ongoing analysis of the loan
portfolio which considers current economic conditions, actual loss experience, the current risk
profile of the portfolio, the composition of loan types within the portfolio, and other relevant
factors. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, we had two loan charge-offs for
$8,000.
During the third quarter of 2007, we added no provisions to the allowance for loan losses,
reflecting slower loan growth during the period, and $75,000 during the third quarter of 2006. We
had five non-accrual loans for $1,304,000 at September 30, 2007 and one non-accrual loan for
$313,000 at September 30, 2006. The loan loss allowance as a percentage of total loans was 1.22% at
September 30, 2007 and 1.16% at September 30, 2006.
Income Taxes
We recognized a third quarter 2007 tax expense of $188,000, based on pre-tax book income of
$741,000. For the period ended September 30, 2006, we recognized tax expense of $175,000. Capital
losses recorded during the quarter ended March 31, 2007 totaled $837,993 for which a valuation
allowance for realizability of deferred tax assets was established, in the amount of $115,000.
The Bank made provisions for income taxes of ($19,000) and $852,000 during the nine months
ended September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006, respectively. The credit provision for income
taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 was primarily the result of losses on the sale
of investments in the first quarter of 2007 and, to a lesser degree, tax advantaged investments
such as BOLI and municipal bonds. The effective tax rate for the nine month period ended September
30, 2007 was negative due to the losses incurred with the portfolio restructuring that occurred
during this period. The effective tax rate for the nine month period ended September 30, 2006 was
26.8%.
Financial Condition
Growth in assets and deposits during the first nine months of 2007 fell well below our
historical growth rates for a number of reasons. Sales from the investment portfolio were utilized
as a source of liquidity for loan originations, to restructure portfolio yield and to reduce the
need to grow deposits in a highly competitive and expensive deposit market. These efforts, aimed
at improving net interest margin, reduced our balance sheet growth, but helped to improve our net
interest margin. Assets decreased $7,937,000 or a decline of 1.8% to $445,343,000 at September 30,
2007 from $453,280,000 at December 31, 2006. Loans, net of allowance for losses of $3,692,000 at
September 30, 2007 and $3,273,000 at December 31, 2006, grew $23,906,000 or 8.7% to $298,099,000 at
September 30, 2007 from $274,193,000 at December 31, 2006. Investments decreased to $105,093,000
at September 30, 2007 from $134,290,000 at December 31, 2006. Premise and equipment also decreased
during the first nine months of 2007 by $415,000 from $16,186,000 at December 31, 2006 to
$15,771,000 at September 30, 2007. Deposits grew by 0.4% to $311,249,000 at September 30, 2007
from
Page 25 of 40
$309,953,000 at December 31, 2006. Our shareholders equity decreased to $49,885,000 at
September 30, 2007 from $51,127,000 at December 31, 2006. During the first nine months of 2007 we
experienced two loan charge-offs for $8,000.
Investment Securities
Our investment policies include strict standards on permissible investment categories, credit
quality, maturity intervals and investment concentrations. Our investment strategies are aimed at
providing liquidity, maximizing income, managing interest rate risk and minimizing credit risk. We
consider the investment portfolio as an alternative to loan originations only when excess liquidity
cannot be invested in locally originated loans. Management formulates investment strategies and
specific programs in conjunction with the Investment/ALCO Committee of the Board of Directors of
the Bank. Management is responsible for making the specific investment purchases within such
standards. At September 30, 2007, the investment portfolio was primarily comprised of U.S.
government agency debt securities, agency mortgage-backed securities, corporate debt securities,
municipal securities and equity securities.
The estimated fair value of our investment securities available for sale at September 30, 2007
was $105,093,000, including an unrealized loss of $1,795,000 and at December 31, 2006 was
$95,335,000, including an unrealized loss of $1,039,000. We formerly maintained a held to maturity
portfolio of investments. All held to maturity securities except for one, which was transferred to
available for sale as of March 31, 2007, were sold as part of the restructuring program, and there
will be no more held to maturity classified securities for the next two years. The held to
maturity portfolio was recorded at amortized cost. The amortized cost of the held to maturity
portfolio was $38,955,000 at December 31, 2006.
Our recent balance sheet restructuring program was designed to reduce interest rate risk and
improve net interest margin. We initially intended to elect early adoption of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and
Liabilities (SFAS 159) and account for the restructuring under the transition provisions of SFAS
159. Subsequent to the Companys original decision to early adopt SFAS 159, clarifications of the
interpretation of the application of that Statement by applicable regulatory and industry bodies,
including the AICPAs Center for Audit Quality, led us to conclude that the application of SFAS 159
to our transactions might be inconsistent with the intent and spirit of the statement.
Consequently, we decided not to early-adopt SFAS 159. Based on our understanding of the views of
applicable regulatory agencies and bodies, we reported the investment securities in our
restructuring program that were designated for sale at March 31, 2007 and subsequently sold in
April 2007 as being other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2007. Other than temporary
impairment treatment requires us to value these investments at market value with the difference
between book carrying value and market value being recognized as a component of current earnings
for the three month period ending March 31, 2007. The recognition of other than temporary
impairment resulted in a loss of $1,524,000. Available for sale securities and held to maturity
securities were impacted by losses from other than temporary impairment recognition of $502,000 and
$1,022,000, respectively.
Investment purchases during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 totaled $225,686,000
comprised of $178,133,000 in agency securities, $7,563,000 in corporate debt securities, $3,741,000
in MBS, $513,000 in state and municipal obligations, $2,000,000 in equity securities, $29,963,000
in commercial paper, and $3,773,000 in FHLBNY common stock.
Securities available for sale are stated at fair market value on the balance sheet with an
adjustment to equity for unrealized gains and losses.

Loans
The majority of our loan portfolio is collateralized, at least in part, by real estate or
secured with personal guarantees. Our loans are mostly made to small and mid-sized businesses and
individuals in Atlantic, Cumberland and Cape May counties in New Jersey. We focus our commercial
lending activity on small businesses and professionals within these counties.
Inherent within the lending function is the evaluation and acceptance of credit risk and
interest rate risk. We manage credit risk through underwriting policies and procedures, loan
monitoring practices, and portfolio diversification. Loans above predetermined thresholds are
reviewed and approved by the Loan Committee of the Board of Directors of the Bank. An independent
firm is retained to periodically review adherence to underwriting policies and procedures.
Interest rate risk is managed within our asset/liability management procedures using various
modeling techniques. The majority of our loans are either fixed rate for a period of five years or
less, or variable rate.
During the first nine months of 2007, loan growth declined from the prior year. Net loans
grew by $23,906,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 as compared to net loan growth of
$30,728,000 during the same period in 2006. Slower loan growth can be attributed to less demand
for new loans, less utilization of existing lines of credit and loan pay-offs, all factors that can
be associated with slower economic growth. Loan growth has also been negatively impacted by
increased competition from other financial institutions.

Allowance for Loan Losses
We maintain an allowance for loan losses and charge losses to this allowance when loan
balances are considered uncollectible. The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level
which represents managements best estimate of known and inherent losses. Managements judgment is
based on the evaluation of individual loans, past experience, the assessment of current economic
conditions, and other relevant factors. Based on all of these factors loans are grouped by relative
risk and risk factors assigned to each category. Appropriate reserves are determined for each
category based on the risk factors established for that category. Loans or borrowers exhibiting
credit deterioration are excluded from these calculations and are assigned specific reserves based
on their risk classification. Because our loan portfolio has only seven years of history,
management also uses peer group analysis to gauge the overall reasonableness of our loan loss
reserves. The reserve is adjusted monthly to reflect new loans and pay-offs and to respond to
changes in economic conditions and the financial condition of borrowers.
Regulatory authorities, as an integral part of their examination, periodically review our
allowance for loan losses. They may require additions to the allowance based upon their judgments
about information available to them at the time of the examination.
Management considers the allowance for loan losses to be reasonable. A reconciliation of the
allowance for loan losses has been supplied in the table below.
Non-accrual loans are those where the accrual of interest has ceased. Loans are placed on
non-accrual status immediately if, in the opinion of management, collection is doubtful or when
principal or interest is past due 90 days or more and collateral is insufficient to cover principal
and interest. Interest accrued, but not collected at the date a loan is placed on non-accrual
status, is reversed and charged against interest income. Subsequent cash receipts are applied
either to the outstanding principal or recorded as interest income, depending on managements
assessment of ultimate collectibility of principal and interest. We had five non-accrual loans for
$1,304,000 at September 30, 2007 and one non-accrual loan for $313,000 at September 30, 2006.
There were no impaired loans at September 30, 2007 or September 30, 2006. Deposit accounts
overdrawn for more than 30 days are reviewed for collectibility, if collection is doubtful the
account is charged-off. Subsequent cash receipts are recorded as recoveries.

Non-performing assets are defined as accruing loans past due 90 days or more, non-accruing
loans, restructured loans and other real estate owned. We had $1,304,000 of non-performing assets
at September 30, 2007 and $313,000 of non-performing assets at September 30, 2006.
Other Real Estate Owned
We had no other real estate owned at September 30, 2007 or December 31, 2006.
Account Receivables
Account receivables is primarily our Business Manager/Med Cash program. This is a program
that enables us to purchase at a discount and manage the accounts receivable of credit-worthy
merchants with required repurchase of delinquent accounts by the merchant and with the merchants
repurchase obligation supported by a cash collateral account. The purchase of the merchants
accounts receivable is recognized as accounts receivable in our financial statements. The balance
in these accounts as of September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006 was $2,950,000 and $2,263,000,
respectively.
Page 29 of 40
Other Assets
Other assets totaled $1,160,000 at September 30, 2007 compared to $670,000 at December 31,
2006. Other assets at September 30, 2007 were primarily comprised of prepaid expenses of $228,000,
other accounts receivable of $15,000, and deferred tax assets of $1,022,000 with a related
allowance account of ($115,000). The significant change in the deferred tax asset account of
$711,000 was the result of the balance sheet restructuring done during the first quarter of 2007.
At December 31, 2006, other assets were primarily comprised of other accounts receivable of $8,000,
deferred tax items of $321,000 and prepaid expenses of $331,000.
Deposits
We are largely dependent upon our base of competitively priced deposits to provide a stable
source of funding. We have retained and grown our customer base since inception through a
combination of additional branch locations, quality service, a well-structured product mix, price,
convenience, and a stable and experienced staff.
Total deposits grew by $1,296,000 or 0.4% to $311,249,000 at September 30, 2007 from
$309,953,000 at December 31, 2006. Slower loan growth and restructuring in the investment
portfolio have reduced the need for aggressive deposit growth providing an opportunity to moderate
deposit expense in a rising rate environment. Current deposit gathering efforts are focused on
matching deposit growth to the slower rates of loan growth. The majority of our deposits were in
time deposits, interest checking, personal money market and corporate money market accounts. It is
our continuing goal to increase non-interest bearing deposits which consist primarily of commercial
checking accounts and non-interest retail checking accounts. Non-interest bearing deposits are an
important source of funds because they lower overall deposit costs. New branch offices typically
experience their most rapid initial growth in interest bearing certificates of deposit. Our focus
on core deposit growth has been successful in decreasing interest bearing deposits as a percent of
total deposits. Interest bearing deposits comprised 91.5% of total deposits at September 30, 2007
compared to 92.7% at December 31, 2006. Non-interest bearing deposits were $26,483,000 or 8.5% and
$22,699,000 or 7.3% of total deposits, respectively, at September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006.
In August 2003, we opened our second branch site in Galloway, NJ. In July 2004, we opened our
third branch site in Margate City, NJ. In August 2005, we opened our fourth branch site in Egg
Harbor Township, NJ. In October 2005, we opened our fifth branch site in Cape May Court House, NJ
and in June 2006, we opened our sixth branch site in Cape May City, NJ. In October 2006, we opened
our seventh branch and second branch site in Egg Harbor Township, NJ. As of September 30, 2007,
the Linwood branch had $123,516,000, the Galloway branch had $54,728,000, the Margate branch had
$49,058,000, the Egg Harbor Township English Creek branch had $33,372,000, the Cape May Court House
branch had $32,777,000, the Cape May City branch had $9,160,000, and the Egg Harbor Township Ocean
Heights had $8,638,000 in total deposits.
Borrowings
Borrowings decreased to $82,723,000 at September 30, 2007 from $91,061,000 at December 31,
2006. As a community bank, our funding strategy is to utilize deposits from our local marketplace
as our primary funding source in order to develop and enhance customer relationships. We utilize
borrowings to supplement growth in periods when deposit funding is not adequate, when borrowings
are more cost effective or as a short-term liquidity source. We also use FLHBNY advances as a
source of longer fixed rate interest bearing liabilities to manage interest rate risk and in
anticipation of rising interest rates. During the six months ended June 30, 2007 FHLBNY borrowing
rates were consistently higher than our retail deposit alternatives. Consequently, we utilized
deposits and investment liquidations to fund growth and reduced borrowing whenever possible.
Borrowings at September 30, 2007 consisted of reverse repurchase agreements or advances with the
FHLBNY and reverse repurchase agreements with Citigroup Global Markets Inc. The FHLBNY borrowings
are secured by mortgage loans, commercial loans, agency securities and agency mortgage backed
securities as collateral. All borrowings at December 31, 2006 were secured FHLBNY advances and
reverse repurchase agreements.

The following table summarizes our borrowings. Short-term borrowings have maturity dates of
twelve months or less. Long-term borrowings have maturity dates in excess of twelve months.

Other Liabilities
Other liabilities at September 30, 2007 of $1,064,000 were comprised of accrued compensation
related expenses of $602,000, accounts payable of $28,000, income tax payable of $283,000 and
accrued expenses of $151,000. Accrued compensation and related expenses were notably higher at
September 30, 2007 compared to December 31, 2006 due to growth in staff, differences in the length
of accrual periods and increases in incentive compensation programs. Other liabilities at December
31, 2006 of $578,000 were comprised primarily of accrued compensation and salaries of $336,000,
accounts payable of 143,000, and accrued expenses of $99,000.
Capital
A strong capital position is fundamental to support our continued growth. We are subject to
various regulatory capital requirements. Regulatory capital is defined in terms of Tier I capital
(shareholders equity less unrealized gains or losses on available-for-sale securities), Tier II
capital (which includes a portion of the allowance for loan losses) and total capital (Tier I plus
Tier II). Risk-based capital ratios are expressed as a percentage of risk-weighted assets.
Risk-weighted assets are determined by assigning various weights to all assets and off-balance
sheet financial instruments, such as letters of credit and loan commitments, based on associated
risk. Regulators have also adopted minimum Tier I leverage ratio standards, which measure the
ratio of Tier I capital to total assets.
At September 30, 2007, management believes Bancorp is well capitalized and in compliance
with all regulatory capital requirements to which it is subject.

Dividend Policy
Our future dividend policy is subject to the discretion of the Board of Directors and will
depend upon a number of factors, including future earnings, financial conditions, cash needs,
regulation and general business conditions. Holders of common stock will be entitled to receive
dividends as and when declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available for that
purpose. Subsequent to the completion of the merger with Cape Savings Bank which is anticipated to
occur in the first quarter of 2008, dividends will be at the discretion of the board of directors
of the combined banks.
Dividend payments by Bancorp to its shareholders are subject to the New Jersey Business
Corporation Act, and certain rules and policies of the Federal Reserve Board applicable to bank
holding companies. Under the New Jersey Business Corporation Act, dividends may generally be paid
if, after giving effect to the dividend, a corporation is able to pay its debts as they become due
in the usual course of business and its assets are equal to or exceed its liabilities. Federal
Reserve Board policy states that a bank holding company should pay cash dividends only out of
income over the past year and only if prospective earnings retention is consistent with the
corporations expected future needs. Funds available for dividend payments by Bancorp are largely
dependent on dividends paid to Bancorp by the Bank, which are subject to the New Jersey Banking Act
of 1948 (the Banking Act), and the applicable rules of the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ( the FDIC). Under the Banking Act, no dividends may
be paid by the Bank to Bancorp unless, after payment of the dividend, the capital stock of the Bank
would be unimpaired, and (a) the Bank will have a surplus of 50% or more of its capital stock or,
if not, (b) the payment of the dividend will not reduce the surplus of the Bank. Under the Federal
Deposit Insurance Act, the Bank may not pay a dividend if it is in arrears in the payment of any
insurance assessment due to the FDIC.
Page 32 of 40
Requirements of federal and state banking agencies for the
maintenance of certain levels of capital may also limit the ability of Bancorp and Bank to pay
dividends.
We paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.10 per share on our common stock on November 5, 2007.
There can be no assurance that cash dividends will continue to be paid after the completion of the
merger with Cape Savings Bank or that adequate dividend paying ability will exist in the future.
Liquidity
Liquidity represents an institutions ability to generate cash or otherwise obtain funds at
reasonable rates to satisfy commitments to borrowers and demands of depositors. Our primary sources
of funds are deposits, proceeds from principal and interest payments on loans and investments,
sales of investments available for sale and borrowings. While maturities and scheduled amortization
of loans and investments are a predictable source of funds, economic conditions and competition
influence deposit flows and loan prepayments.
We monitor our liquidity position on a daily basis. We use overnight federal funds and
short-term securities to absorb daily excess liquidity. Federal funds are sold overnight through a
correspondent bank.
In the event we should require funds beyond our ability to generate them internally,
additional sources of funds are available through the use of reverse repurchase agreements, a line
of credit with the Atlantic Central Bankers Bank, a line of credit with the Sun Trust Bank, FHLBNY
advances, the Federal Reserve Bank discount window or sales of investment securities.
Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices
The financial statements and accompanying notes thereto presented in this quarterly report
have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of
historical dollars without considering the changes in the relative purchasing power of money over
time due to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of the Banks
operations. Unlike industrial companies, nearly all of our assets and liabilities are monetary in
nature. As a result, interest rates have a greater impact on our performance than do the effects
of general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to
the same extent as the price of goods and services.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Bank adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)
Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes-an interpretation of FASB
Statement No. 109 (FIN 48), on January 1, 2007. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty
in income taxes recognized in an enterprises financial statements in accordance with FASB
Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. FIN 48 prescribes a threshold and a measurement
process for recognizing in the financial statements a tax position taken or expected to be taken in
a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and
penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. We have determined that there
are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in our financial statements.
Federal tax years 2003 through 2006 remain subject to examination as of January 1, 2007, while
tax years 2003 through 2006 remain subject to examination by state taxing jurisdictions. In the
event the Bank is assessed for interest and/or penalties by taxing authorities, such assessed
amounts will be classified in the financial statements as income tax expense.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159,
The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and
Financial LiabilitiesIncluding an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115
(SFAS 159). SFAS 159 permits
entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value and
amends SFAS 115 to, among other things, require certain disclosures for amounts for which the fair
value option is applied. Additionally, this Statement provides that an entity may reclassify
held-to-maturity and available-for-sale securities to the trading account when the fair value
option is elected for such securities, without calling into question the intent to hold other
securities to maturity in the future. This Statement is effective as of the beginning of an
entitys first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. Early adoption is permitted as of
the beginning of a fiscal year that begins on or before November
15, 2007, provided the entity also elects to apply the provisions of SFAS 157. Bancorp has
not completed its assessment of SFAS 159 and the impact, if any, on the consolidated financial
statements.
Page 33 of 40
In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair
Value Measurement (Statement 157). Statement 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for
measuring fair value in U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosure
requirements for fair value measurements. Statement 157 does not require any new fair value
measurements and is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after
November 15, 2007, or January 1, 2008 for Bancorp. Bancorp has not completed its assessment of
SFAS 157 and the impact, if any, on the consolidated financial statements.
Item 3 Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Incorporated by reference from Part I, Item 2 Managements Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations Interest Rate Sensitivity hereof.
Item 4 Controls and Procedures
Bancorp, under the supervision and with the participation of Bancorps management, including
the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the
design and operation of Bancorps disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation,
Bancorps Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that Bancorps disclosure
controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2007. There has been no change in
Bancorps internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended
September 30, 2007 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect,
Bancorps internal control over financial reporting.
