Material
Impairments
In early February 2010,
the Company determined to sell two of its five investments in pooled trust
preferred securities with an aggregate recorded book value and an estimated
aggregate fair value of $4.8 million and $3.3 million, respectively, at December
31, 2009 (with an aggregate unrealized loss of $1.6 million (pre-tax) recorded
as a component of other comprehensive income at such date). Subsequently, the
Company sold such securities on February 12, 2010 for an aggregate sales price
of $2.7 million, resulting in a pre-tax loss of $2.1 million, which will be
recognized in the quarter ending March 31, 2010. In connection with the
recognition of the loss, the Company will eliminate the $1.6 million (pre-tax)
unrealized loss previously recorded as a component of other comprehensive income
with respect to such securities. As a result of the sale of two of the Company’s
investments in pooled trust preferred securities, the Company believes that it
also will be required to recognize losses for the quarter ended March 31, 2010
with respect to its investment in the three remaining pooled trust preferred
securities. At December 31, 2009, these three pooled trust preferred securities
that the Company continues to hold had an aggregate recorded book value and an
estimated aggregate fair value of approximately $2.8 million and $1.9 million,
respectively (with an aggregate unrealized loss of approximately $968,000
(pre-tax) recorded as a component of other comprehensive income at such
date). The actual amount of the loss that will be required to be
recognized in the second quarter of fiscal 2010 with respect to these three
securities may be more or less than the amount of unrealized losses reflected in
stockholders’ equity as of December 31, 2009.
