These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented have been included.  Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.  These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, as filed with the SEC on March 31, 2014 ("2013 Form 10-K").  The results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.  For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes for the year ended December 31, 2013, included in the 2013 Form 10-K.  Certain amounts in the prior quarters' consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.  These classifications do not have an impact on previously reported consolidated net income, retained earnings, stockholders' equity or earnings per share.

In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board "FASB" issued ASU No. 2013-11, Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists.  ASU No. 2013-11 requires an entity to present an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward, except to the extent a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position or the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets.  No new recurring disclosures are required.  The amendments are effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2013 and are to be applied prospectively to all unrecognized tax benefits that exist at the effective date.  Retrospective application is permitted.  The adoption of ASU No. 2013-11 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-01, Accounting for Investments in Qualified Affordable Housing Projects.  ASU 2014-04 permits an entity to make an accounting policy election to account for their investments in qualified affordable housing projects using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met.  Under the proportional amortization method, an entity amortizes the initial cost of the investment in proportion to the tax credits and other tax benefits received and recognize the net investment performance in the income statement as a component of income tax expense (benefit).  The amendments are effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014 and should be applied prospectively.  The Company is currently reviewing the requirements of ASU No. 2014-01, but does not expect the ASU to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-04, Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon foreclosure.  ASU 2014-04 clarifies that an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs, and a creditor is considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan, upon either (1) the creditor obtaining legal title to the residential real estate property upon completion of a foreclosure or (2) the borrower conveying all interest in the residential real estate property to the creditor to satisfy that loan through completion of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or through a similar legal agreement. Additionally, the amendments require interim and annual disclosure of both (1) the amount of foreclosed residential real estate property held by the creditor and (2)
the recorded investment in consumer mortgage loans collateralized by residential real estate property that are in the process of foreclosure according to local requirements of the applicable jurisdiction.  The amendments are effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014 and can be applied with a modified retrospective transition method or prospectively.  The adoption of ASU No. 2014-04 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which creates Topic 606 and supersedes Topic 605, Revenue Recognition.  The core principle of Topic 606 is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.  In general, the new guidance requires companies to use more judgment and make more estimates than under current guidance, including identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation.  The standard is effective for public entities for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016; early adoption is not permitted.  For financial reporting purposes, the standard allows for either full retrospective adoption, meaning the standard is applied to all of the periods presented, or modified retrospective adoption, meaning the standard is applied only to the most current period presented in the financial statements with the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard recognized at the date of initial application.  The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of ASU No. 2014-09 to determine the potential impact the new standard will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-11, Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860): Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosures, which changes the accounting for repurchase-to-maturity transactions and repurchase financing arrangements. It also requires additional disclosures about repurchase agreements and other similar transactions.  The new guidance aligns the accounting for repurchase-to-maturity transactions and repurchase agreements executed as a repurchase financing with the accounting for other typical repurchase agreements. Going forward, these transactions would all be accounted for as secured borrowings.  The ASU also requires new and expanded disclosures. This ASU is effective for the first interim or annual period beginning after December 15, 2014.  The adoption of ASU No. 2014-11 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12, Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period.  The ASU requires that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition.  A reporting entity should apply existing guidance in Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, as it relates to awards with performance conditions that affect vesting to account for such awards.  The performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant-date fair value of the award. Compensation cost should be recognized in the period in which it becomes probable that the performance target will be achieved and should represent the compensation cost attributable to the period(s) for which the requisite service has already been rendered.  The amendments in this ASU can be applied prospectively or retrospectively and are effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015 with early adoption permitted.  The Company is currently reviewing the requirements of ASU No. 2014-12, but does not expect the ASU to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

At June 30, 2014, our securities portfolio consisted of 15 agency mortgage-backed securities, five non-agency mortgage-backed securities and five municipal securities with a fair value of $14.1 million.  At December 31, 2013, our securities portfolio consisted of 17 agency mortgage-backed securities, five non-agency mortgage-backed securities and five municipal bonds with a fair value of $15.4 million.  At June 30, 2014, five of the 15 agency mortgage-backed securities were in an unrealized loss position compared to 11 of the 17 agency mortgage-backed securities at December 31, 2013.  All of the agency mortgage-backed securities in an unrealized loss position at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 were issued or guaranteed by U.S. governmental agencies.  The unrealized losses were caused by changes in market interest rates or the widening of market spreads subsequent to the initial purchase of these securities, and not related to the underlying credit of the issuers or the underlying collateral.  It is expected that these securities will not be settled at a price less than the amortized cost of each investment.  Because the decline in fair value is attributable to changes in interest rates or widening market spreads and not credit quality, and because we do not intend to sell the securities in this class and it is not likely that we will be required to sell these securities before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may include holding each security until contractual maturity, the unrealized losses on these investments are not considered an other-than-temporary impairment ("OTTI").

As of June 30, 2014, one of the five non-agency mortgage-backed securities was in an unrealized loss position compared to two of the five non-agency mortgage-backed securities in an unrealized loss position at December 31, 2013.  The unrealized loss was caused by changes in interest rates and market illiquidity causing a decline in the fair value subsequent to the purchase.  The contractual terms of these investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than par.  While management does not intend to sell the non-agency mortgage-backed securities, and it is unlikely that the Company will be required to sell these securities before recovery of its amortized cost basis, management's impairment evaluation indicates that certain securities possess qualitative and quantitative factors that suggest an OTTI.  These factors include, but are not limited to: the length of time and extent of the fair value declines, ratings agency down grades, the potential for an increased level of actual defaults, and the extension in duration of the securities.  In addition to the qualitative factors, management's evaluation includes an assessment of quantitative evidence that involves the use of cash flow modeling and present value calculations as determined by considering the applicable OTTI accounting guidance.  The Company compares the present value of the current estimated cash flows to the present value of the previously estimated cash flows.  Accordingly, if the present value of the current estimated cash flows is less than the present value of the previous period's present value, an adverse change is considered to exist and the security is considered OTTI.  The associated "credit loss" is the amount by which the security's amortized cost exceeds the present value of the current estimated cash flows.  Based upon the results of the cash flow modeling, no security reflected OTTI during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014.  Estimating the expected cash flows and determining the present values of the cash flows involves the use of a variety of assumptions and complex modeling.  In developing its assumptions, the Company considers all available information relevant to the collectability of the applicable security, including information about past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts.  Furthermore, the Company asserts that the cash flows used in the determination of OTTI are its "best estimate" of cash flows.

Credit Quality Indicators.  Federal regulations provide for the classification of lower quality loans as substandard, doubtful or loss.  An asset is considered substandard if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and payment capacity of the borrower or of any collateral pledged.  Substandard assets include those characterized by the distinct possibility that we will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.  Assets classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses of currently existing facts, conditions and values.  Assets classified as loss are those considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as assets without establishment of a specific loss reserve is not warranted.
When we classify problem loans as either substandard or doubtful, we may establish a specific allowance in an amount we deem prudent to address the risk specifically (if the loan is impaired) or we may allow the loss to be addressed in the general allowance (if the loan is not impaired).  General allowances represent loss reserves which have been established to recognize the inherent risk associated with lending activities, but which, unlike specific allowances, have not been specifically allocated to particular problem loans.  When the Company classifies problem loans as a loss, we charge off such assets in the period in which they are deemed uncollectible.  Assets that do not currently expose us to sufficient risk to warrant classification as substandard, doubtful or loss but possess identified weaknesses are classified as either watch or special mention assets.  Our determination as to the classification of our assets and the amount of our valuation allowances is subject to review by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"), which can order the establishment of additional loss allowances.  Pass rated loans are loans that are not otherwise classified or criticized.

Nonaccrual and Past Due Loans.  Loans are considered past due if the required principal and interest payments have not been received as of the date such payments were due.  Loans are automatically placed on nonaccrual once the loan is 90 days past due or sooner if, in management's opinion, the borrower may be unable to meet payment of obligations as they become due, as well as when required by regulatory provisions.

Nonperforming Loans.  Loans are considered nonperforming when they are placed on nonaccrual and/or when they are considered to be nonperforming troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs") and/or when they are 90 days or greater past due and still accruing.  A TDR is a loan to a borrower that is experiencing financial difficulty that has been modified from its original terms and conditions in such a way that the Company is granting the borrower a concession of some kind.  Nonperforming TDRs include TDRs that do not have sufficient payment history (typically greater than six months) to be considered performing or TDRs that have become 31 or more days past due.

Impaired Loans.  A loan is considered impaired when we have determined that we may be unable to collect payments of principal or interest when due under the terms of the loan.  In the process of identifying loans as impaired, we take into consideration factors which include payment history and status, collateral value, financial condition of the borrower, and the probability of collecting scheduled payments in the future.  Minor payment delays and insignificant payment shortfalls typically do not result in a loan being classified as impaired.  The significance of payment delays and shortfalls is considered on a case by case basis, after taking into consideration the totality of circumstances surrounding the loans and the borrowers, including payment history and amounts of any payment shortfall, length and reason for delay, and likelihood of return to stable performance.  Impairment is measured on a loan by loan basis for all loans in the portfolio.  All TDRs are also classified as impaired loans and are included in the loans individually evaluated for impairment in the calculation of the allowance for loan losses.

Forgone interest on nonaccrual loans was $57,000 and $64,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.  There were no commitments to lend additional funds to borrowers whose loans were classified as nonaccrual, TDR or impaired at June 30, 2014 or December 31, 2013.

Troubled debt restructurings.  Loans classified as TDRs totaled $6.2 million and $6.4 million at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, and are included in impaired loans.  The Company has granted in its TDRs a variety of concessions to borrowers in the form of loan modifications.  The modifications granted can generally be described in the following categories:

Rate Modification: A modification in which the interest rate is changed.

Term Modification: A modification in which the maturity date, timing of payments, or frequency of payments is changed.

Payment Modification: A modification in which the dollar amount of the payment is changed.  Interest only modifications in which a loan in converted to interest only payments for a period of time are included in this category.

Combination Modification:  Any other type of modification, including the use of multiple categories above.

The following table provides a description of the valuation technique, unobservable input, and qualitative information about the unobservable inputs for the Company's assets and liabilities classified as Level 3 and measured at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2014:

Financial Instrument
 
Valuation Technique
 
Unobservable Input(s)
 
Range (Weighted Average)
Mortgage Servicing Rights
 
Discounted cash flow
 
Prepayment speed assumption
 
101-462% (208%)
 
 
 
 
Discount rate
 
8-12% (10%)
Non-agency mortgage-backed securities
 
Discounted cash flow
 
Discount rate
 
(8%)

Generally, any significant increases in the constant prepayment rate and discount rate utilized in the fair value measurement of the mortgage servicing rights will result in a negative fair value adjustment (and decrease in the fair value measurement).  Conversely, a decrease in the constant prepayment rate and discount rate will result in a positive fair value adjustment (and increase in the fair value measurement).  An increase in the weighted average life assumptions will result in a decrease in the constant prepayment rate and conversely, a decrease in the weighted average life will result in an increase of the constant prepayment rate.

A description of the valuation methodologies used for impaired loans and OREO is as follows:

Impaired Loans - The fair value of collateral dependent loans is based on the current appraised value of the collateral or internally developed models utilizing a calculation of expected discounted cash flows which contain management's assumptions.

OREO and Repossessed Assets – The fair value of OREO and repossessed assets is based on the current appraised value of the collateral.
 
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of other financial instruments:
 
Cash and cash equivalents, accrued interest receivable and payable, and advance payments from borrowers for taxes and insurance - The estimated fair value is equal to the carrying amount.

AFS Securities – AFS securities are recorded at fair value based on quoted market prices, if available.  If quoted market prices are not available, management utilizes third-party pricing services or broker quotations from dealers in the specific instruments.  Level 2 securities include those traded on an active exchange, as well as U.S. government and its agencies securities.  Level 3 securities include private label mortgage-backed securities.
 
Loans Held for Sale - Residential mortgage loans held for sale are recorded at the lower of cost or fair value. The fair value of fixed-rate residential loans is based on whole loan forward prices obtained from government sponsored enterprises. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, loans held for sale were carried at cost.
 
Loans - The estimated fair value for all fixed rate loans is determined by discounting the estimated cash flows using the current rate at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and maturities. The estimated fair value for variable rate loans is the carrying amount. The fair value for all loans also takes into account projected loan losses as a part of the estimate.

Mortgage Servicing Rights –The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is determined though a discounted cash flow analysis, which uses interest rates, prepayment speeds, discount rates,  and delinquency rate assumptions as inputs.
 
FHLB stock - The estimated fair value is equal to the par value of the stock, which approximates fair value.
 
Bank-owned Life Insurance - The estimated fair value is equal to the cash surrender value of policies, net of surrender charges.
 
Deposits - The estimated fair value of deposit accounts (savings, demand deposit, and money market accounts) is the carrying amount. The fair values of fixed-maturity time certificates of deposit are estimated by discounting the estimated cash flows using the current rate at which similar certificates would be issued.

Borrowings - The fair value of borrowings are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, based on the Company's current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.
 
Off-balance-sheet financial instruments - The fair value for the Company's off-balance-sheet loan commitments are estimated based on fees charged to others to enter into similar agreements taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and credit standing of the Company's customers. The estimated fair value of these commitments is not significant.
 
We assume interest rate risk (the risk that general interest rate levels will change) as a result of our normal operations. As a result, the fair values of our financial instruments will change when interest rate levels change, which may be favorable or unfavorable to us. Management attempts to match maturities of assets and liabilities to the extent necessary or possible to minimize interest rate risk. However, borrowers with fixed-rate obligations are less likely to prepay in a rising rate environment and more likely to prepay in a falling rate environment. Conversely, depositors who are receiving fixed rates are more likely to withdraw funds before maturity in a rising rate environment and less likely to do so in a falling rate environment. Management monitors rates and maturities of assets and liabilities and attempts to minimize interest rate risk by establishing early withdrawal penalties for certificates of deposit, creating interest rate floors for certain variable rate loans, adjusting terms of new loans and deposits, by borrowing at fixed rates for fixed terms and investing in securities with terms that mitigate our overall interest rate risk.

Note 7 – Commitments and Contingencies
 
In the normal course of operations, the Company engages in a variety of financial transactions that are not recorded in our financial statements.  These transactions involve varying degrees of off-balance sheet credit, interest rate and liquidity risks.  These transactions are used primarily to manage customers' requests for funding and take the form of loan commitments and lines of credit.

Note 8 – Borrowings

The Company utilizes a loan agreement with the FHLB of Seattle. The terms of the agreement call for a blanket pledge of a portion of the Company's mortgage and commercial and multifamily portfolio based on the outstanding balance.  At June 30, 2014, the amount available to borrow under this agreement was approximately 35% of the Bank's total assets, or up to $164.1 million, subject to the availability of eligible collateral.  Based on eligible collateral, the total amount available under this agreement as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was $124.5 million and $116.8 million, respectively.  The Company had outstanding borrowings under this arrangement of $27.9 million and $43.2 million at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.  Additionally, the Company had outstanding letters of credit from the FHLB with a notional amount of $36.5 million at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 to secure public deposits.  The net remaining amount available under our loan agreement with the FHLB as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, was $60.1 million and $37.1 million, respectively.


SOUND FINANCIAL BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)


The Company participates in the Federal Reserve Bank Borrower-in-Custody program, which gives the Company access to the discount window.  The terms of the program call for a pledge of specific assets.  The Company had unused borrowing capacity of $19.9 million and $19.2 million and no outstanding borrowings under this program at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

The Company has access to a Fed Funds line of credit from the Pacific Coast Banker's Bank.  The line has a two-year term maturing on June 30, 2016 and is renewable biannually.  At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the amount available under this line of credit was $2.0 million.  There was no balance on this line of credit as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

The Company has access to a Fed Funds line of credit from Zions Bank under a Fed Funds Sweep and Line Agreement established September 26, 2013.  The agreement allows access to a Fed Funds line of up to $9.0 million and requires the Company to maintain cash balances with Zions Bank of $250,000.  The agreement has no maturity date.  There was no balance on this line of credit as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

Note 9 – Earnings Per Common Share

Non-vested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents are participating securities and are included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method.  The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for each class of common stock and participating security according to dividends declared (or accumulated) and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Certain of the Company's non-vested restricted stock awards qualify as participating securities. 
 
Net earnings, less any preferred dividends accumulated for the period (whether or not declared), is allocated between the common stock and participating securities pursuant to the two-class method.  Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net earnings available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, excluding participating non-vested restricted shares. 
 
Diluted earnings per common share is computed in a similar manner, except that first the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if potentially dilutive common shares, excluding the participating securities, were issued using the treasury stock method.  For all periods presented, stock options, certain restricted stock awards and restricted stock units are the only potentially dilutive non-participating instruments issued by the Company.  Next, we determine and include in diluted earnings per common share calculation the more dilutive effect of the participating securities using the treasury stock method or the two-class method.  Undistributed losses are not allocated to the non-vested share-based payment awards (the participating securities) under the two-class method as the holders are not contractually obligated to share in the losses of the Company.

ESOP shares are considered outstanding for basic and diluted earnings per share when the shares are committed to be released.

Note 10 – Stock-based Compensation

Stock Options and Restricted Stock

The Company currently has two existing Equity Incentive Plans, a 2008 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2008 Plan") and a 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2013 Plan", and together with the 2008 Plan, the "Plans"), both of which were approved by shareholders.  The Plans permit the grant of restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock options, and stock appreciation rights.  Under the 2008 Plan, 126,287 shares of common stock were approved for awards for stock options and stock appreciation rights and 50,514 shares of common stock were approved for awards for restricted stock and restricted stock units.  Under the 2013 Plan, 141,750 shares of common stock were approved for awards for stock options and stock appreciation rights and 56,700 shares of common stock were approved for awards for restricted stock and restricted stock units.
 
As of June 30, 2014, awards for stock options totaling 212,887 shares and awards for restricted stock totaling 93,292 shares of Company common stock have been granted under the Plans to participants, net of any forfeitures.  During the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 share-based compensation expense totaled $46,000 and $244,000, respectively.  During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, share-based compensation expense totaled $84,000 and $66,000, respectively.

Stock Option Awards

All of the stock option awards granted under the Plans to date provide for the recipient's award to vest in 20 percent annual increments commencing one year from the grant date.  All of the options granted are exercisable for a period of 10 years from the date of grant, subject to vesting.  The following is a summary of the Company's stock option plan awards during the six months ended June 30, 2014:

As of June 30, 2014, there was $776,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options granted under the Plan.  The cost is expected to be recognized over the remaining weighted-average vesting period of 2.43 years.

The fair value of each option award granted is estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes model.  The assumptions used for the six months ended June 30, 2014 are presented in the table below:

The Company (including the predecessor entity) became a publicly held company in January 2008, so the amount of historical stock price information available is limited.  As a result, the Company elected to use a weighted-average of its peers' historical stock prices, as well as the Company's own historical stock prices to estimate volatility.  The Company bases the risk-free interest rate on the U.S. Treasury Constant Maturity Indices in effect on the date of the grant.  The Company elected to use the Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 110, "Share-Based Payments" permitted by the Securities and Exchange Commission to calculate the expected term.  This simplified method uses the vesting term of an option along with the contractual term, setting the expected life at a midpoint in between.

Restricted Stock Awards
 
The fair value of the restricted stock awards is equal to the fair value of the Company's stock at the date of grant.  Compensation expense is recognized over the vesting period that the awards are based.  The restricted stock awards granted under the 2008 Plan to date provide for vesting in 20 percent annual increments commencing one year from the grant date.  The restricted stock awards under the 2013 Plan to date vested 20% of a recipient's award immediately with the full compensation expense associated with those shares recognized in the first quarter of 2014.  The balance of an individual's award vests in four equal annual installments commencing one year from the grant date with the remaining compensation expense recognized over the four year vesting period of the remaining awards.

As of June 30, 2014, there was $665,000 of unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested restricted stock granted under the Plan remaining.  The cost is expected to be recognized over the weighted-average vesting period of 2.42 years.  The total fair value of shares vested for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was $269,000 and $120,000, respectively.

Employee Stock Ownership Plan

In January 2008, the ESOP borrowed $1.2 million from the Company to purchase common stock of the Company.  In August 2012, in conjunction with the Company's "second step" conversion to become a fully converted public company, the ESOP borrowed $1.1 million from the Company to purchase additional common stock of the Company.  Both loans are being repaid principally by the Bank through contributions to the ESOP over a period of ten years.  The interest rate on the loans is fixed at 4.0% and 2.25%, per annum, respectively.  At June 30, 2014, the remaining balances of the ESOP loans were $521,000 and $914,000, respectively.

Neither the loan balances nor the related interest expense are reflected on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

At June 30, 2014, the ESOP was committed to release 21,443 shares of the Company's common stock to participants and held 131,129 unallocated shares remaining to be released in future years.  The fair value of the 131,129 restricted shares held by the ESOP trust was $2.3 million at June 30, 2014.  ESOP compensation expense included in salaries and benefits was $76,000 and $155,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014.  It was $97,000 and $173,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively.

Note 11 – Subsequent Event

On July 28, 2014, the Company declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.05 per common share, payable on August 27, 2014 to shareholders of record at the close of business August 13, 2014.
 
In May 2014, we entered into a Purchase and Assumption Agreement with Columbia State Bank ("Columbia") in which the Bank agreed to purchase approximately $1 million in loans, three branch facilities, certain personal property and records of Columbia's Port Angeles, Port Ludlow and Sequim Branches and will assume approximately $25 million in deposits.  This transaction includes the payment of a 2.35% deposit premium.  We plan to move the operations of our Sequim branch to the Columbia Sequim Branch office during the third quarter of 2014.  We plan to close the Port Angeles Branch of Columbia in the fourth quarter of 2014.  We will consolidate the customers and operations of the Branch into our existing Port Angeles location.  We received regulatory approval for this transaction and it is scheduled to close on August 22, 2014.

General
Sound Financial Bancorp, a Maryland corporation, is a bank holding company for its wholly owned subsidiary, Sound Community Bank.  Substantially all of Sound Financial Bancorp's business is conducted through Sound Community Bank, a Washington state-chartered commercial bank.  As a Washington commercial bank, the Bank's regulators are the Washington State Department of Financial Institutions ("WDFI") and the FDIC.  The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System ("Federal Reserve") is the primary federal regulator for Sound Financial Bancorp.
Sound Community Bank's deposits are insured up to applicable limits by the FDIC.  At June 30, 2014, Sound Financial Bancorp had total consolidated assets of $468.9 million, net loans of $399.7 million, deposits of $373.9 million and stockholders' equity of $48.2 million.  The shares of Sound Financial Bancorp are traded on The NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol "SFBC."  Our executive offices are located at 2005 5th Avenue, Suite 200, Seattle, Washington, 98121.
Our principal business consists of attracting retail and commercial deposits from the general public and investing those funds, along with borrowed funds, in loans secured by first and second mortgages on one- to four-family residences (including home equity loans and lines of credit), commercial and multifamily, consumer and commercial business loans and construction and land loans.  We offer a variety of secured and unsecured consumer loan products, including manufactured home loans, floating homes, automobile loans, boat loans and recreational vehicle loans.  As part of our business, we focus on residential mortgage loan originations, some of which we sell to Fannie Mae.  We sell these loans with servicing retained to maintain the direct customer relationship and to continue providing strong customer service to our borrowers.  We originate and retain a significant amount of commercial real estate loans, including those secured by owner-occupied and nonowner-occupied commercial real estate, multifamily property, manufactured home parks and construction and land development loans.
Our operating revenues are derived principally from earnings on interest earning assets, service charges and fees, and gains on the sale of loans. Our primary sources of funds are deposits, Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") advances and other borrowings, and payments received on loans and securities.  We offer a variety of deposit accounts that provide a wide range of interest rates and terms, generally including savings, money market, NOW accounts, term certificate and demand accounts.
Our noninterest expenses consist primarily of salaries and employee benefits, expenses for occupancy, marketing and data processing and FDIC deposit insurance premiums.  Salaries and benefits consist primarily of the salaries and wages paid to our employees, payroll taxes, directors fees, expenses for retirement and other employee benefits.  Occupancy expenses, which are the fixed and variable costs of buildings and equipment, consist primarily of lease payments, property taxes, depreciation charges, maintenance and the cost of utilities.
Critical Accounting Policies

Certain of our accounting policies are important to an understanding of our financial condition, since they require management to make difficult, complex or subjective judgments, which may relate to matters that are inherently uncertain.  Estimates associated with these policies are susceptible to material changes as a result of changes in facts and circumstances.  Facts and circumstances that could affect these judgments include, but are not limited to, changes in interest rates, changes in the performance of the economy and changes in the financial condition of borrowers.  Management believes that its critical accounting policies include determining the allowance for loan losses, accounting for other-than-temporary impairment of securities, accounting for mortgage servicing rights, accounting for other real estate owned and accounting for deferred income taxes.  Our methodologies for analyzing the allowance for loan losses, mortgage servicing rights, other real estate owned and deferred tax asset accounts are described in our 2013 Form 10-K.  There have been no significant changes in the Company's application of accounting policies since December 31, 2013.

General.   Total assets increased by $26.3 million, or 5.9%, to $468.9 million at June 30, 2014 from $442.6 million at December 31, 2013.  This increase was primarily the result of a $13.0 million, or 3.4%, increase in the net loan portfolio and a $13.5 million, or 88.2% increase in our cash and cash equivalents.  A $25.6 million increase in deposits was primarily used to fund the increase in loans and cash and pay down borrowings.
Cash and SecuritiesCash, cash equivalents and our available-for-sale securities in the aggregate increased by $12.2 million, or 39.6%, to $42.9 million at June 30, 2014.  Cash and cash equivalents increased by $13.5, or 88.2%, to $28.9 million at June 30, 2014.  Available-for-sale securities, which consist primarily of agency mortgage-backed securities, decreased by $1.3 million, or 8.7%, from $15.4 million at December 31, 2013 to $14.1 million at June 30, 2014 as a result of scheduled pay-downs and repayments.
At June 30, 2014, our available-for-sale securities portfolio consisted of $2.6 million of non-agency mortgage-backed securities.  These securities present a higher credit risk than agency mortgage-backed securities and municipal bonds, of which we had $9.5 million and $2.0 million, respectively, at June 30, 2014.  In order to monitor the increased risk, management receives and reviews a credit surveillance report from a third party semiannually, which evaluates these securities based on a number of factors, including credit scores, loan-to-value ratios, geographic locations, delinquencies and loss histories of the underlying mortgage loans.  This analysis is prepared in order to project future losses based on various home price depreciation scenarios over a three-year horizon.  Based on these reports, management ascertains the appropriate value for these securities and, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, recorded no other-than-temporary impairment charges on these non-agency securities.  Please see Note 3 – Investments in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 1 of this report.  The current market environment significantly limits our ability to mitigate our exposure to value changes in these more risky securities by selling them, and we do not anticipate these conditions to change significantly throughout the year.  Accordingly, if the market and economic environment impacting the loans supporting these securities deteriorates, we could determine that an other-than-temporary impairment must be recorded on these securities, as well as on any other securities in our portfolio.  As a result, our future earnings, equity, regulatory capital and ongoing operations could be adversely affected.
Loans.  Our total loan portfolio, excluding loans held for sale, increased $13.0 million, or 3.3%, from $390.9 million at December 31, 2013 to $403.9 million at June 30, 2014.  Loans held for sale increased $1.8 million from $130,000 at December 31, 2013 to $1.9 million at June 30, 2014.

The increases in our commercial business loans and other consumer loans reflect our strategy of increasing non-real estate secured loans as a percentage of our loan portfolio.  At June 30, 2014, our loan portfolio remained well-diversified with commercial and multifamily real estate loans accounting for 38.0% of the portfolio.  Residential real estate loans accounted for 30.0% of the portfolio.  Home equity, manufactured and other consumer loans accounted for 14.8% of the portfolio.  Construction and land loans accounted for 11.6% of the portfolio and commercial business loans accounted for the remaining 5.5% of total loans.
One- to four- family loan originations decreased $53.9 million, or 72.4%, to $20.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 from $74.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 reflecting increased mortgage interest rates.  The Company continued to sell longer-term fixed rate loans for asset liability management purposes and to generate non-interest income.
Mortgage Servicing Rights.  At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had $3.0 million in mortgage servicing rights recorded at fair value. .  We record mortgage servicing rights on loans sold to Fannie Mae with servicing retained and upon acquisition of a servicing portfolio.  We stratify our capitalized mortgage servicing rights based on the type, term and interest rates of the underlying loans.  Mortgage servicing rights are carried at fair value.  If the fair value of our mortgage servicing rights fluctuates significantly, our financial results could be materially impacted.


Nonperforming Assets.  At June 30, 2014, nonperforming assets totaled $2.5 million, or 0.52% of total assets, compared to $3.1 million, or 0.70% of total assets at December 31, 2013.

Nonperforming loans to total loans increased slightly to 0.53% of total gross loans at June 30, 2014 from 0.49% at December 31, 2013.  This reflects a $221,000 increase in nonperforming loans during the six months ended June 30, 2014.  Our largest nonperforming loans at June 30, 2014 consisted of two commercial real estate loans and a one- to four- family loan secured by property located in Clallam County, Washington.

OREO and repossessed assets decreased during the three months ended June 30, 2014, primarily due to improving economic conditions in our market and our continued focus on credit administration.  During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we repossessed three personal residence and five manufactured homes.  We sold ten personal residences and five manufactured home at an aggregate loss of $52,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2014.  Our largest OREO at June 30, 2014, consisted of a one- to four- family home with a recorded value of $127,000 located in Clallam County, Washington.  Our next largest OREO properties were a $54,000 manufactured home located in Clallam County, Washington and a $50,000 one- to four- family home located in Pierce County, Washington.

Allowance for Loan Losses.  The allowance for loan losses is maintained to cover losses that are probable and can be estimated on the date of evaluation in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.  It is our best estimate of probable incurred credit losses in our loan portfolio.

Our allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2014 was $4.2 million, or 1.04% of total loans receivable compared to $4.2 million, or 1.07% of total loans receivable at December 31, 2013.  The allowance for loan losses reflects the $400,000 provision for loan losses established during the six months ended June 30, 2014.

Specific loan loss reserves decreased $197,000 at June 30, 2014 compared to December 31, 2013, while general loan loss reserves increased $211,000 at June 30, 2014, compared to December 31, 2013.  Net charge-offs for the six months ended June 30, 2014 were $386,000, or 0.19% of average loans on an annualized basis, compared to $819,000, or 0.48% of average loans for the same period in 2013.  The decrease in net charge-offs was primarily due to improving economic conditions in our market area and continued efforts in credit administration and collections.  As of June 30, 2014, the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans receivable and nonperforming loans was 1.04% and 195.66%, respectively, compared to 1.07% and 217.44%, respectively, at December 31, 2013.  The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans receivable decreased primarily as a result of higher balances of loans receivable and improved credit metrics related to both specific and general reserves. This includes a decrease in expected losses on loans individually evaluated for impairment and an increase in expected losses on loans collectively evaluated for impairment.  The decrease in loans individually evaluated was due to lower past due and impaired loans as a percentage of the overall loan portfolio and improving values for real estate in the markets where we lend.  The increase in loans collectively evaluated was due to an increase in loans receivable and an evaluation by management of a longer look-back period in calculating the historical loss ratios. Management will continue to evaluate the appropriate loss periods given changes in the economic environment and nature of the risks within the loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of nonperforming loans decreased due to a $488,000 increase in nonperforming loans from $1.5 million as of December 31, 2013 to $2.0 million as of June 30, 2014.


Deposits.  Total deposits increased by $25.6 million, or 7.3%, to $373.9 million at June 30, 2014 from $348.3 million at December 31, 2013, primarily as a result of a $14.7 million, or 20.8%, increase in interest-bearing demand accounts and a $12.4 million, or 35.8%, increase in noninterest-bearing demand accounts.  These increases were partially offset by a $6.7 million, or 11.4%, decrease in money market accounts. The increases were primarily a result of retail and sales efforts during the period as we continued our emphasis on attracting relatively low-cost core deposit accounts including noninterest-bearing accounts to small businesses.  The decrease in money market was primarily of result of customers placing these funds in higher yielding certificate or interest-bearing demand accounts.  At June 30, 2014, brokered deposits were $2.9 million compared to $4.3 million at December 31, 2013.

Borrowings.  FHLB advances decreased $3.3 million, or 7.7%, to $39.9 million at June 30, 2014, with a weighted-average cost of 0.56%, from $43.2 million at December 31, 2013, with a weighted-average cost of 0.53% due to maturities.  We rely on FHLB advances to fund interest-earning assets when deposits alone cannot fully fund interest-earning asset growth.  This reliance on borrowings, rather than deposits, may increase our overall cost of funds.

Stockholders' Equity.  Total stockholders' equity increased $1.7 million, or 3.6%, to $48.2 million at June 30, 2014 from $46.5 million at December 31, 2013.  This increase primarily reflects $2.2 million in net income and other comprehensive income of $392,000 representing unrealized holding gains on available for sale securities partially offset by $904,000 in repurchases of 53,340 shares of common stock at an average price of $16.91 per share and the payment of cash dividends of $252,000.

Comparison of Results of Operation for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2014 and 2013
GeneralNet income increased $74,000 to $1.2 million, or $0.47 per diluted common share, for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $1.1 million, or $0.43 per diluted common share, for the three months ended June 30, 2013.  Net income increased $264,000 to $2.2 million, or $0.85 per diluted common share, for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $1.9 million, or $0.74 per diluted common share, for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  The primary reasons for the improvement in the three months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the same period last year were an increase in net interest income and lower provision for loan losses which was partially offset by lower noninterest income and higher noninterest expense.  The primary reasons for the improvement in the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2013 were an increase in net interest income and lower provision expense which was partially offset by lower noninterest income.  Noninterest expense was generally stable during the six months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to the same period last year.
 
Interest Income.  Interest income increased by $354,000, or 7.2%, to $5.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014, from $4.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013.  Interest income increased by $921,000, or 9.7%, to $10.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, from $9.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  The increase in interest income for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, primarily reflected the increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets.  In particular, our average balance of loans receivable outpaced the decline in the weighted average yield on our interest-earning assets during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to the same periods last year.
 
Our weighted average yield on interest-earning assets was 4.97% and 5.00% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to 5.27% and 4.99% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively.  The weighted average yield on loans decreased to 5.17% and 5.21% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, from 5.60% and 5.48% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively.  The average balance of gross loans receivable increased $55.0 and $56.9 million, or 15.9% and 16.7%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared to the same periods last year.  The weighted average yield on available-for-sale securities (including OTTI) was 1.70% and 1.30% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, compared to 1.04% and 1.81% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively.  The average balance of available-for-sale securities decreased $4.1 million and $5.2 million, or 22.0% and 26.1%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to the same periods last year.
 
Interest ExpenseInterest expense increased $52,000, or 9.6%, to $596,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014, from $544,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2013.  Interest expense increased $93,000, or 8.4%, to $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, from $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  These increases reflect a $44.6 million and $42.0 million increase in the average balances of deposits for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared to the same periods last year.  We also had a $159,000 and $4.0 million increase in the average balances of FHLB advances for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively.  Our weighted average cost of interest-bearing liabilities was 0.67% and 0.55% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, compared to 0.70% and 0.71% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively.
 
 

 
Interest paid on deposits increased $54,000, or 10.8%, to $552,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014, from $498,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2013.  Interest paid on deposits increased $113,000, or 11.3%, to $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, from $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  These increases resulted from higher average balances of deposits outstanding in the period, partially offset by slightly lower weighted average cost of deposits.  Our weighted average cost of deposits during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 was 0.61% and 0.62%, respectively, as compared to 0.62% and 0.63% during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively.  The decrease in average rates during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 was primarily a result of the re-pricing of matured certificates of deposit, most of which we were able to retain at lower rates.

Interest expense on borrowings decreased $2,000, or 4.3%, to $44,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014, from $46,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2013.  Interest expense on borrowings decreased $20,000, or 17.5%, to $94,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014, from $114,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  The decrease was a result of a decrease in our cost of borrowings which was 0.56% and 0.55% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared to 0.59% and 0.75% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively.  These decreases were partially offset by a $159,000 and $4.0 million increase in the average balance of borrowings outstanding during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared to the same periods last year.
 
Net Interest Income.  Net interest income increased $302,000, or 7.0%, to $4.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014, from $4.3 for the three months ended June 30, 2013.  Net interest income increased $828,000, or 9.8%, to $9.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, from $8.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  The increase for three and six months ended June 30, 2014 resulted from increased interest income due to higher average loan balances.  Our average yield on loans receivable decreased during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to the same periods last year as new loan originations are pricing lower than pay downs and paid loans which reflects the continued low rate environment.  Our net interest margin was 4.40% and 4.43% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, compared to 4.68% and 4.46% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively.
 
Provision for Loan Losses.  We establish provisions for loan losses, which are charged to earnings, at a level required to reflect management's best estimate of the probable incurred credit losses in the loan portfolio.  In evaluating the level of the allowance for loan losses, management considers historical loss experience, the types of loans and the amount of loans in the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect borrowers' ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral, peer group data, prevailing economic conditions, and current factors.  Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans, such as one-to four-family, small commercial and multifamily, home equity and consumer loans, are evaluated in the aggregate using historical loss factors adjusted for current economic conditions and other relevant data.  Loans for which management has concerns about the borrowers' ability to repay, are evaluated individually, and specific loss allocations are provided for these loans when necessary.
 
A provision of $200,000 and $400,000 was made during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, compared to a provision of $450,000 and $700,000 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively.  The reduced provision during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, primarily reflects declines in loan charge-offs and improvements in our credit metrics offset by higher average loan balances and changes in the composition of our loan portfolio.

For the three months ended June 30, 2014, the annualized percentage of net charge-offs to average loans decreased 36 basis points to 0.18%, from 0.54% for the three months ended June 30, 2013.  For the six months ended June 30, 2014, the annualized percentage of net charge-offs to average loans decreased 28 basis points to 0.19%, from 0.47% for the six months ended June 30, 2013.

The ratio of nonperforming loans to total loans decreased three basis points to 0.53% at June 30, 2014 from 0.56% at June 30, 2013.

While we believe the estimates and assumptions used in our determination of the adequacy of the allowance are reasonable, there can be no assurance that such estimates and assumptions will not be proven incorrect in the future, or that the actual amount of future provisions will not exceed the amount of past provisions or that any increased provisions that may be required will not adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations.  In addition, the determination of the amount of our allowance for loan losses is subject to review by bank regulators as part of the routine examination process, which may result in the adjustment of reserves based upon their judgment of information available to them at the time of their examination.

Noninterest Income.  Noninterest income decreased $238,000, or 17.5%, to $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 as reflected below (dollars in thousands):

The decline in mortgage servicing income was primarily a result of reduced refinance activity and higher expenses in the loan servicing portfolio. We expect Fannie Mae to reimburse some of these expenses in the third quarter of 2014.  The lower gain on sale of loans was primarily reflective of lower volumes and average premiums on loans sold.  The decrease in OTTI was a result of improving credit trends in the Company's non-agency mortgage-backed securities.



Noninterest income decreased $819,000, or 30.1%, to $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to $2.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 as reflected below (dollars in thousands):

Salaries and benefits expense increased during the three months ended June 30, 2014, primarily due to an increase of three full time equivalent employees during the period.  Data processing expenses increased primarily due to the expansion of online and mobile banking offerings.  Losses and expenses on OREO and repossessed assets decreased primarily due to lower levels of OREO and other repossessed assets during the three months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to the same period last year and improving values for real estate in the markets where we lend.

Noninterest expense declined $77,000, or (1.0%), to $7.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to $7.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2013, as reflected below (dollars in thousands):

Salaries and benefits expense increased during the six months ended June 30, 2014, primarily due to an increase of three full time equivalent employees during the period and $244,000 of share based compensation expense.  Data processing expenses increased primarily due to the expansion of online and mobile banking offerings.  Regulatory assessments were lower due to a decrease in FDIC insurance assessments.  Losses and expenses on OREO and repossessed assets decreased primarily due to lower levels of OREO and other repossessed assets during the six months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to the same period last year and improving values for real estate in the markets where we lend.

Income Tax Expense.   For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, we incurred income tax expense of $573,000 and $1.0 million on our pre-tax income as compared to $539,000 and $910,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively.  The effective tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 were 32.0% and 31.9%, respectively.  The effective tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 were 32.1% and 31.9%, respectively.


Liquidity

The Management Discussion and Analysis in Item 7 of the Company's 2013 Form 10-K contains an overview of the Company's and the Bank's liquidity management, sources of liquidity and cash flows.  This discussion updates that disclosure for the six months ended June 30, 2014.
 
The Bank's primary sources of funds are deposits, principal and interest payments on loans and borrowings.  While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans are a predictable source of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition.  The Bank's primary investing activity is loan originations.  The Bank maintains liquidity levels it believes to be adequate to fund loan commitments, investment opportunities, deposit withdrawals and other financial commitments.  At June 30, 2014, the Bank had $42.9 million in cash and investment securities available for sale and $1.9 million in loans held for sale generally available for its cash needs.  Also, based on existing collateral pledged, the Bank had the ability to borrow an additional $60.1 million in Federal Home Loan Bank advances, $19.9 million through the Federal Reserve's Discount Window, $9.0 million through a Fed Funds line at Zions Bank and $2.0 million through a Fed Funds line at Pacific Coast Banker's Bank.  The Bank uses these sources of funds primarily to meet ongoing commitments, pay maturing deposits and fund withdrawals, and to fund loan commitments.  At June 30, 2014, outstanding loan commitments, including unused lines and letters of credit totaled $57.0 million.  Certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in one year or less at June 30, 2014, totaled $84.6 million.  Based on our competitive pricing, we believe that a majority of maturing deposits will remain with the Bank.

Cash and cash equivalents increased $13.5 million to $28.9 million as of June 30, 2014, from $15.3 million as of December 31, 2013.  Net cash provided by operating activities was $3.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014.  Net cash of $11.0 million was used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2014 and consisted principally of loan originations, net of principal repayments.  The $21.1 million of cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2014 was primarily a result of a $25.6 million net increase in deposits which was primarily used to fund loan growth, pay down $3.3 million in FHLB advances and increase on-balance sheet cash.

As a separate legal entity from the Bank, the Company must provide for its own liquidity.  At June 30, 2014, the Company, on an unconsolidated basis, had $346,000 in cash, noninterest-bearing deposits and liquid investments generally available for its cash needs.  The Company's principal source of liquidity is dividends from the Bank.

Except as set forth above, management is not aware of any trends, events, or uncertainties that will have, or that are reasonably likely to have a material impact on liquidity, capital resources or operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Activities
In the normal course of operations, we engage in a variety of financial transactions that are not recorded in our financial statements.  These transactions involve varying degrees of off-balance sheet credit, interest rate and liquidity risks.  These transactions are used primarily to manage customers' requests for funding and take the form of loan commitments and lines of credit.  For the six months ended June 30, 2014, we engaged in no off-balance sheet transactions likely to have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
A summary of our off-balance sheet loan commitments at June 30, 2014, is as follows (in thousands):

Capital
 
Sound Community Bank is subject to minimum capital requirements imposed by regulations of the FDIC.  Based on its capital levels at June 30, 2014, Sound Community Bank exceeded these requirements as of that date.  Consistent with our goals to operate a sound and profitable organization, our policy is for Sound Community Bank to maintain a "well-capitalized" status under the regulatory capital categories of the FDIC.  Based on capital levels at June 30, 2014, Sound Community Bank was considered to be well-capitalized under applicable regulatory requirements.  Management monitors the capital levels to provide for current and future business opportunities and to maintain Sound Community Bank's "well-capitalized" status.

For a bank holding company with less than $500 million in assets, the capital guidelines apply on a bank only basis and the Federal Reserve expects the holding company's subsidiary banks to be well capitalized under the prompt corrective action regulations.  If Sound Financial Bancorp was subject to regulatory guidelines for bank holding companies with $500 million or more in assets, at June 30, 2014 Sound Financial Bancorp would have exceeded all regulatory capital requirements.  The estimated regulatory capital ratios calculated for Sound Financial Bancorp as of June 30, 2014 were 10.37% for Tier 1 leverage-based capital, 12.98% for Tier 1 risk-based capital and 14.16% for total risk-based capital.


Item 3.                          Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
 
The Company provided information about market risk in Item 7A of its 2013 Form 10-K.  There have been no material changes in our market risk since our 2013 Form 10-K.
Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

(a)
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

An evaluation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a -15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Act")), as of June 30, 2014, was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and several other members of the Company's senior management. The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2014, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Act is: (i) accumulated and communicated to the Company's management (including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer) in a timely manner, and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms.
We intend to continually review and evaluate the design and effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures and to improve the Company's controls and procedures over time and to correct any deficiencies that we may discover in the future. The goal is to ensure that senior management has timely access to all material financial and non-financial information concerning the Company's business. While we believe the present design of the disclosure controls and procedures is effective to achieve this goal, future events affecting our business may cause the Company to modify its disclosure controls and procedures.
The Company does not expect that its disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all error and all fraud. A control procedure, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control procedure are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control procedures, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any control procedure is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control procedure, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
(b)
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a - 15(f) under the Act) that occurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
