Note 6: Stock Option Plans

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure (SFAS 148), which provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, SFAS 148 requires disclosures of the interim as well as annual financial statements about the method of accounting used for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method on net income. The Company had elected to continue to account for stock-based compensation under APB Opinion No. 25.

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123 (revised 2004), "Share-Based Payment," which requires the compensation costs related to share-based payment transactions to be recognized in financial statements. With limited exceptions, the amount of compensation cost will be measured based on the grant-date fair value of the equity instruments issued. Compensation cost will be recognized over the vesting period during which an employee provides service in exchange for the award. SFAS No. 123R was adopted during the first quarter of fiscal 2006 for the Company primarily due to the transition from a small business filer to a full filer; therefore, the following table only shows pro forma compensation expense for the three and nine month periods ending March 31, 2005. In the table, net income and earnings per share are displayed as if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation".

Note 7: Employee Stock Ownership Plan

The Bank established a tax-qualified ESOP in April 1994. The plan covers substantially all employees who have attained the age of 21 and completed one year of service. The Company's intent is to continue the ESOP for fiscal 2006. The Company has been accruing $15,000 per month for ESOP expenses this year and intends to purchase shares for distribution to participants in late fiscal 2006.

Note 8: Corporate Obligated Floating Rate Trust Preferred Securities

Southern Missouri Statutory Trust I issued $7.0 million of Floating Rate Capital Securities (the "Trust Preferred Securities") in March of 2004 with a liquidation value of $1,000 per share. The securities are due in 30 years, redeemable after five years and bear interest at a floating rate based on LIBOR. The securities represent undivided beneficial interests in the trust, which was established by the Company for the purpose of issuing the securities. The Trust Preferred Securities were sold in a private transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act") and have not been registered under the Act. The securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements.

Southern Missouri Statutory Trust I used the proceeds from the sale of the Trust Preferred Securities to purchase Junior Subordinated Debentures of the Company. The Company intends to use its net proceeds for working capital and investment in its subsidiaries.

Note 9: Authorized Share Repurchase Program

In April 2004, the Board of Directors authorized and announced the open-market stock repurchase of up to 115,000 shares of the Company's outstanding stock. As of March 31, 2006 a total of 88,645 shares have been repurchased. The number of shares, as of March 31, 2006, held as treasury stock was 724,410.

PART I: Item 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
SOUTHERN MISSOURI BANCORP, INC.

General

Southern Missouri Bancorp, Inc. (Southern Missouri or Company) is a Missouri corporation and owns all of the outstanding stock of Southern Missouri Bank & Trust Co. (SMBT or the Bank). The Company's earnings are primarily dependent on the operations of the Bank. As a result, the following discussion relates primarily to the operations of the Bank. The Bank's deposit accounts are generally insured up to a maximum of $100,000 (certain retirement accounts are insured up to $250,000) by the Deposit Insurance Fund (DIF), which is administered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). The Bank currently conducts its business through its home office located in Poplar Bluff and eight full service branch facilities in Poplar Bluff, Van Buren, Dexter, Kennett, Doniphan, Sikeston, and Qulin, Missouri.

The significant accounting policies followed by Southern Missouri Bancorp, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary for interim financial reporting are consistent with the accounting policies followed for annual financial reporting. All adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature and are in the opinion of management necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods reported, have been included in the accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements.

The consolidated condensed balance sheet of the Company as of June 30, 2005 has been derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of that date. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the Company's annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. These consolidated condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-KSB annual report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is intended to assist in understanding the financial condition and results of operations of the Company. The information contained in this section should be read in conjunction with the unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The following discussion reviews the Company's consolidated financial condition at March 31, 2006, and the results of operations for the three and nine-month periods ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Forward Looking Statements

This document, including information incorporated by reference, contains forward-looking statements about the Company and its subsidiaries which we believe are within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements may include, without limitation, statements with respect to anticipated future operating and financial performance, growth opportunities, interest rates, cost savings and funding advantages expected or anticipated to be realized by management. Words such as "may," "could," "should," "would," "believe," "anticipate," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "plan" and similar expressions are intended to identify these forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements by the Company and its management are based on beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, expectations, anticipations, estimates and intentions of management and are not guarantees of future performance. The important factors we discuss below, as well as other factors discussed under the caption "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and identified in our filings with the SEC and those presented elsewhere by our management from time to time, could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements made in this document:

  • the strength of the United States economy in general and the strength of the local economies in which we conduct operations;
  • the effects of, and changes in, trade, monetary and fiscal policies and laws, including interest rate policies of the Federal Reserve Board;
  • inflation, interest rate, market and monetary fluctuations;
  • the timely development of and acceptance of our new products and services and the perceived overall value of these products and services by users, including the features, pricing and quality compared to competitors' products and services;
  • the willingness of users to substitute our products and services for products and services of our competitors;
  • the impact of changes in financial services' laws and regulations (including laws concerning taxes, banking, securities and insurance);
  • the impact of technological changes;
  • acquisitions;

  • changes in consumer spending and saving habits; and
  • our success at managing the risks involved in the foregoing.

The Company disclaims any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements based on the occurrence of future events, the receipt of new information, or otherwise.

Critical Accounting Policies

Generally accepted accounting principles are complex and require management to apply significant judgments to various accounting, reporting and disclosure matters. Management of the Company must use assumptions and estimates to apply these principles where actual measurement is not possible or practical. For a complete discussion of the Company's significant accounting policies, see "Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements" in the Company's 2005 Annual Report. Certain policies are considered critical because they are highly dependent upon subjective or complex judgments, assumptions and estimates. Changes in such estimates may have a significant impact on the financial statements. Management has reviewed the application of these policies with the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors. For a discussion of applying critical accounting policies, see "Critical Accounting Policies" beginning on page 11 in the Company's 2005 Annual Report. During the first quarter of fiscal 2006, the Company adopted FASB 123R primarily due to the change in filing status of the Company from a small business filer to a full filer.

Executive Summary

Our results of operations depend primarily on our net interest margin, which is directly impacted by the interest rate environment. The net interest margin is the difference between the average yield earned on average interest-earning assets, primarily mortgage loans, commercial loans and the investment portfolio, and the average rate paid on average interest-bearing liabilities, primarily certificates of deposit, savings, interest-bearing demand accounts and borrowed funds. Net interest margin is directly impacted by the spread between long-term interest rates and short-term interest rates, as our interest-earning assets, particularly those with initial terms to maturity or repricing greater than one year, generally price off longer term rates while our interest-bearing liabilities generally price off shorter term interest rates.

Our net interest income is also impacted by the shape of the market yield curve. A steep yield curve - where the difference in interest rates between short term and long term periods is relatively large - could be beneficial to our net interest income, as the interest rate spread between our additional interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities would be larger. Conversely, a flat or flattening yield curve, where the difference in rates between short term and long term periods is relatively small, or shrinking, could have an adverse impact on our net interest income, as our interest rate spread could decrease.

Our results of operations may also be affected significantly by general and local economic and competitive conditions, particularly those with respect to changes in market interest rates, government policies and actions of regulatory authorities.

During the first nine months of fiscal year 2006, our balance sheet grew by $28.1 million. Growth was reflected in higher cash and loan balances. Consistent with historical trends and our June, 2004 change to a commercial bank charter, our commercial loan portfolio expanded. Our balance sheet growth was funded primarily by customer deposits. Deposits increased through competitive pricing and the purchase of brokered deposits. Certificates of deposit, money market passbook, and checking account balances grew during the nine-month period ended March 31, 2006.

The Company's net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2006 was $645,000, as compared to a loss of $975,000 during the same period of the prior year. The increase in net income was primarily due to the inclusion of a $2.6 million provision for loan losses in the prior period's results, compared to an $80,000 provision in the current period, and was partially offset by the difference between an income tax benefit of $701,000 during the prior period and a $352,000 provision for income taxes in the current period. Net income for the first nine months of fiscal 2006 was $2.0 million, as compared to $691,000 earned during the same period of the prior year. The increase in net income for the nine-month period was also primarily due to loan loss provisions of $2.9 million during the same period of the prior year, compared to $285,000 in the current period, offset again by an increase from a $301,000 provision for income taxes in the same period of the prior year, to a $1.1 million provision in the current period.

Short term interest rates generally increased in the first nine months of fiscal year 2006, continuing the trend from the prior year. The Federal Open Market (FOMC) of the Federal Reserve has increased its target overnight lending rate 25 basis points at each of its 15 regularly-scheduled meetings since June 2004, and the rate was at 4.75% following the March 28, 2006, meeting. Rates from the two to ten-year sector of the yield curve have increased by approximately 70 to 110 basis points during the first nine months of fiscal 2006, while overnight rates have increased 150 basis points, causing a flattening of the yield curve. It is anticipated that the FOMC will continue to increase the overnight lending rate at the regularly scheduled meeting in May 2006, and possibly again in June 2006, thus further increasing short term market interest rates. The rates paid on our deposit products, which are generally

12

tied to short term market rates, also increased during the nine month period ended March 31, 2006. With long term rates remaining relatively low, in conjunction with increasing short term interest rates, the market yield curve has flattened, and at times inverted. In this rate environment, our net interest spread decreased 17 basis points for the third quarter of 2006 when compared to the same period of the prior year. Our interest income, in general, is more reflective of movements in long term rates than is our interest expense. For the nine month period ending March 31, 2006, our net interest spread decreased 23 basis points when compared to the same period of the prior year. The Company is continuing its efforts to increase the percentage of loans with shorter repricing periods.

The Company's net income is also affected by the level of non-interest income and operating expenses. Non-interest income consists primarily of gains on the sale of available-for-sale securities, service charges, ATM and loan fees, and other general operating income. Operating expenses consist primarily of salaries and employee benefits, occupancy-related expenses, postage, insurance, advertising, professional fees, office expenses and other general operating expenses. In comparing the three and nine-month periods ended March 31, 2006, with the same periods of the prior year, non-interest income increased in the three-month period due primarily to the recognition during the prior period of a large deposit account loss. Non-interest income decreased in the nine-month period primarily due to the decrease in gains realized on the sale of equities and the dividends earned on these equities. In comparing the three and nine-month periods ended March 31, 2006 with the same periods of the prior year, non-interest expense increased primarily due to higher expenses for salaries and benefits, occupancy, and other expenses. A substantial portion of the increased non-interest expense was related to the operations of a new branch in Sikeston, Missouri, which opened January 19, 2006.

The bank's new branch in Sikeston was anticipated to grow between $7.5 million to $10.0 million in loans and deposits by December 31, 2006. As of March 31, 2006, the location had grown to $4.6 million in loans and $2.9 million in deposits. The Sikeston branch is the first de novo expansion the Company has completed in a new market, and we have previously estimated that the branch will break even in the eleventh month of operation.

We expect to continue to grow our assets modestly through the origination and occasional purchase of loans and investment securities. The primary funding for our asset growth is expected to come from retail deposits, overnight borrowings and brokered certificates of deposit. We intend to grow deposits by offering desirable deposit products for our customers and to attract new depository relationships. We will continue to explore branch expansion opportunities in market areas that we believe present attractive opportunities for our strategic business model.

Comparison of Financial Condition at March 31, 2006, and June 30, 2005

The Company's total assets increased by $28.1 million, or 8.5%, to $358.5 million at March 31, 2006, as compared to $330.4 million at June 30, 2005. Loans increased $9.7 million, or 3.6%, to $277.3 million at March 31, 2006, as compared to $267.6 million at June 30, 2005. The Company continues to focus on generating loan growth in commercial and residential loans as evidenced by commercial real estate and one- to four-family residential growth of $7.6 million and $3.5 million, respectively. Cash balances increased $13.5 million, or 347.6%, to $17.4 million at March 31, 2006, as compared to $3.9 million at June 30, 2005.

Asset growth has been funded primarily with increased deposits, which have increased $35.3 million since June 30, 2005, partially offset by decreases in FHLB advances of $9.5 million. The 15.7% increase in total deposits primarily reflects an increase in CDs of $17.3 million, which included a $7.8 million increase in brokered CDs, a $14.0 million increase in the Money Market Passbook and an $8.0 million increase in checking accounts, partially offset by decreases in money market deposit accounts of $4.0 million. The increase reflects the emphasis being placed on attracting new deposit accounts to replace FHLB overnight borrowings in a rising rate environment. FHLB advances totaled $52.0 million on March 31, 2006, as compared to $61.5 million at June 30, 2005, while securities sold under agreements to repurchase totaled $11.5 million on March 31, 2006, from $10.8 million at June 30, 2005.

Total stockholders' equity increased $1.2 million, or 4.7%, to $26.2 million at March 31, 2006, as compared to $25.0 million at June 30, 2005. The increase was primarily due to net income, partially offset by cash dividends paid and the decrease in market value of the investment portfolio.

Average Balance Sheet for the Three and Nine Month Periods Ended March 31, 2006 and 2005

The tables on the following page present certain information regarding Southern Missouri Bancorp, Inc.'s financial condition and net interest income for the three- and nine-month periods ending March 31, 2006 and 2005. The tables present the annualized average yield on interest-earning assets and the annualized average cost of interest-bearing liabilities. We derived the yields and costs by dividing annualized income or expense by the average balance of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, respectively, for the periods shown. Yields on tax-exempt obligations were not computed on a tax equivalent basis.

Results of Operations - Comparison of the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 2006 and 2005.

General. The Company's net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2006 was $645,000, as compared to a loss of $975,000 during the same period of the prior year. The increase in net income was primarily due to the inclusion of a $2.6 million provision for loan losses in the prior period's results, compared to an $80,000 provision in the current period, and was partially offset by the difference between an income tax benefit of $701,000 during the prior period and a $352,000 provision for income taxes in the current period. Net income for the first nine months of fiscal 2006 was $2.0 million, as compared to $691,000 earned during the same period of the prior year. The increase in net income for the nine-month period was also primarily due to loan loss provisions of $2.9 million during the same period of the prior year, compared to $285,000 in the current period, offset again by an increase from a $301,000 provision for income taxes in the same period of the prior year, to a $1.1 million provision in the current period.

Net Interest Income. The Company's net interest income increased for the three and nine-month periods ended March 31, 2006, by $130,000 and $98,000 respectively, as compared to the same periods of the prior year. The increase was primarily due to an increase in the average amount of interest-earning assets, partially offset by decreases in net interest rate spread. The net interest rate spread for the three and nine-month periods ended March 31, 2006, was 2.65% and 2.66%, respectively, as compared to 2.82% and 2.89% for the same periods of the prior year. The decrease in net interest rate spread for the three-month period ended March 31, 2006, resulted from a 75 basis point increase in the weighted-average cost of funds, partially offset by a 58 basis point increase in the weighted-average yield on interest-earning assets. The decrease in net interest rate spread for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2006, resulted from a 72 basis point increase in the weighted-average cost of funds, partially offset by a 49 basis point increase in the weighted-average yield on interest-earning assets. Net interest rate spread compression during the fiscal year has been due primarily to the short-term interest rate increases by the Federal Reserve, without accompanying long-term interest rate increases, increased competition within our market area for both loans and deposits, and increased cash balances, which lowered our average yield on interest-earning assets. Absent cash balances, the Company's net interest spread for the three- and nine-month periods ended March 31, 2006, would have decreased by 14 and 15 basis points, respectively, as compared to decreases of 17 and 22 basis points, respectively, including the impact of the increased cash balances. The Company anticipates lower cash balances in the next quarter.

Interest Income. Total interest income for the three- and nine-month periods ended March 31, 2006 increased by 862,000 and $2.1 million, respectively, as comparted to the same periods of the prior year. The increase for the three-month period ended March 31, 2006 was primarily due to a $23.8 million increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets to $329.8 million, and a 58 basis point increase in weighted-average yields earned. For the nine month period ended, the increase was primarily due to a $21.1 million increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets to $322.9 million at March 31, 2006, and a 49 basis point increase in weighted-average yields earned over the same period of the prior year. The increases in average interest-earning assets reflect planned balance sheet growth. For the three- and nine-month periods ended March 31, 2006, the average interest rate on interest-earning assets was 6.29% and 6.17%, respectively, as compared to 5.71% and 5.68%, respectively, for the same periods of the prior year.

Interest Expense. Total interest expense for the three- and nine-month periods ended March 31, 2006, increased by $732,000 and $2.0 million, respectively, as compared to the same periods of the prior year. The increase for the three-month period ended March 31, 2006, was primarily due to the increase in the average balance of total interest-bearing liabilities of $21.7 million, and an increase in the weighted-average cost of funds of 75 basis points. The increase for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2006 was primarily due to the increase in the average balance of total interest-bearing liabilities of $20.7 million, and a 72 basis point increase in the weighted-average cost of funds. The increases in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities were primarily used to fund asset growth. The increase in the weighted-average cost of funds was primarily due to an increase in short term rates, resulting in an increase in the cost for deposits, repurchase agreements, overnight borrowings, and interest costs associated with the junior subordinated debt.

Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses for the three- and nine-month periods ended March 31, 2006, was $80,000 and $285,000, respectively, as compared to $2.6 million and $2.9 million for the same periods ended March 31, 2005. The higher provision for loan losses in the fiscal 2005 periods was primarily due to a problem credit identified in the quarter ended March 31, 2005. Although we believe that we have established and maintained the allowance for loan losses at adequate levels, additions will be necessary as the loan portfolio grows, as economic conditions change, and as other conditions differ from the current operating environment. Even though we use the best information available, the level of the allowance for loan losses remains an estimate that is subject to significant judgment and short-term change. (See "Critical Accounting Policies", "Allowance for Loan Loss Activity" and "Nonperforming Assets").

Non-interest Income. Non-interest income increased $183,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2006, as compared to the same period of the prior year. The increase was primarily due to the inclusion during the same period of the prior year of a $210,000 loss on a deposit account related to a problem credit relationship identified in the quarter ended March 31, 2005. Exclusive of this item, non-interest income for the quarter ended March 31, 2006, is comparable to the same quarter of the prior year. Non-interest income decreased $199,000 for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2006, as compared to the same period of the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to inclusion in the results of the same period of the prior year of $352,000 in gains realized on the sale of equity investments and $41,000 in dividend income received on those equities, partially offset by the prior year's $210,000 loss noted above.

Non-interest Expense. Non-interest expense increased $169,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2006, as compared to the same period of the prior year, and increased $382,000 for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2006, as compared to the same period of the prior year. Non-interest expense increased due to higher costs for compensation, occupancy, and other operating expenses. Total non-interest expenses attributable to operations of the Sikeston branch are estimated at $133,000 during the three month-period ended March 31, 2006. Absent those expenses, non-interest expense would have increased $36,000 compared to the same period of the prior year.

Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes for the three-month period ended March 31, 2006 was $352,000, compared to a benefit of $701,000 for the same period of the prior year. The increase in provision for income taxes was primarily due to the net loss before income taxes during the prior period. The provision for income taxes for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2006, was $1.1 million, as compared to $301,000 for the same period of the prior year, primarily due to thet higher level of net income before income taxes during the fiscal 2006 period.

Allowance for Loan Loss Activity

The Company regularly reviews its allowance for loan losses and makes adjustments to its balance based on management's analysis of the loan portfolio, the amount of non-performing and classified assets, as well as general economic conditions. Although the Company maintains its allowance for loan losses at a level that it considers sufficient to provide for losses, there can be no assurance that future losses will not exceed internal estimates. In addition, the amount of the allowance for loan losses is subject to review by regulatory agencies, which can order the establishment of additional loss provisions. The following table summarizes changes in the allowance for loan losses over the nine months ended March 31, 2006, and 2005:

2006 
2005 
Balance, beginning of period  $ 2,016,514  
$ 1,978,491 
Loans charged off:
       Residential real estate  (56,834) (6,761)
       Commercial real estate 
       Commercial business  (90,272)
       Consumer  (136,843)
(115,400)
       Gross charged off loans  (283,949)
(122,161)
Recoveries of loans previously charged off:
       Residential real estate  81  5,221 
       Commercial  224 
       Consumer  44,714 
20,963 
       Gross recoveries of charged off loans  44,795  
26,408  
Net charge offs  (239,154) (95,753)
Provision charged to expense  285,000 
2,855,000 
Balance, end of period  $ 2,062,360 
$ 4,737,738 
 
Ratio of net charge offs during the period
   to average loans outstanding during the period  .09%  .04% 

The allowance for loan losses has been calculated based upon an evaluation of pertinent factors underlying the various types and quality of the Company's loans. Management considers such factors as the repayment status of a loan, the estimated net fair value of the underlying collateral, the borrower's intent and ability to repay the loan, local economic conditions, and the Company's historical loss ratios. We maintain the allowance through the provisions for loan losses that we charge to income. We charge losses on loans against the allowance for loan losses when we believe the collection of loan principle is unlikely. The allowance for loan losses increased $46,000 to $2.1 million at March 31, 2006, from $2.0 million at June 30, 2005. At March 31, 2006, the Bank had $403,000, or 0.11% of total assets, adversely classified (substandard, doubtful, or loss), as compared to adversely classified assets of $1.3 million, or 0.54% of assets, at June 30, 2005 and $6.1 million, or 1.8% of assets, at March 31, 2005. The June 30, 2005 and March 31, 2005 classified asset totals included one significant problem loan identified during the quarter ended March 31, 2005. At March 31, 2006, the Company had classified assets of substandard, doubtful and loss of $360,000, $43,000, and $0, respectively.

Although we believe that we have established and maintained the allowance for loan losses at adequate levels, additions may be necessary if future economic and other conditions differ substantially from the current operating environment. Although management uses the best information available, the level of the allowance for loan losses remains an estimate that is subject to significant judgment and short-term change.

Nonperforming Assets

The ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets and non-performing loans to net loans receivable is another measure of asset quality. Nonperforming assets of the Company include nonaccruing loans, accruing loans delinquent/past maturity 90 days or more, and assets which have been acquired as a result of foreclosure or deed-in-lieu of foreclosure.

The following table summarizes changes in the Company's level of nonperforming assets over selected time periods:

Loans past maturity/delinquent 90 days or more
03/31/06 
6/30/05 
03/31/05 
       Residential real estate  $    4,000  $ 130,000  $      71,000 
       Commercial  394,000  4,972,000 
       Consumer  60,000 
47,000 
62,000 
Total loans past maturity/delinquent 90 days or more  64,000  571,000  5,105,000 
Foreclosed real estate or other real estate owned  200,000  87,000  87,000 
Other repossessed assets  322,000 
7,000 
6,000 
       Total nonperforming assets  $ 586,000 
$ 665,000 
$ 5,198,000 
Percentage nonperforming assets to total assets  0.16%  0.20%  1.57% 
Percentage nonperforming loans to net loans  0.02%  0.21%  1.98% 

The increase in Other Repossessed Assets primarily reflects the reclassification from nonperforming loans of $264,000 related to one problem credit relationship (see Legal Proceedings).

Liquidity Resources

The term "liquidity" refers to our ability to generate adequate amounts of cash to fund loan originations, loans purchases, deposit withdrawals and operating expenses. Our primary sources of funds include deposit growth, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, FHLB advances, brokered deposits, amortization and prepayment of loan principal and interest, investment maturities and sales, and funds provided by our operation. While the scheduled loan repayments and maturing investments are relatively predictable, deposit flows, FHLB advance redemptions and loan and security prepayment rates are significantly influenced by factors outside of the Bank's control, including interest rates, general and local economic conditions and competition in the marketplace. The Bank relies on FHLB advances and brokered deposits as additional sources for funding cash or liquidity needs.

The Company uses its liquid resources principally to satisfy its ongoing cash requirements, which include funding loan commitments, funding maturing certificates of deposit and deposit withdrawals, maintaining liquidity, funding maturing or called FHLB advances, purchasing investments, and meeting operating expenses. At March 31, 2006, the Company had outstanding commitments to fund approximately $42.0 million in mortgage and non-mortgage loans. These commitments are expected to be funded through existing cash balances, cash flow from normal operations and, if needed, FHLB advances. At March 31, 2006, the Bank had pledged its residential real estate loan portfolio with FHLB with available credit of approximately $96.0 million, of which $52.0 million had been advanced. In addition, the Bank has the ability to pledge several of its other loan portfolios, including commercial real estate, home equity, and commercial business loans, which could provide additional borrowing capacity of approximately $67.5 million at March 31, 2006. Along with the ability to borrow from the FHLB, management believes its liquid resources will be sufficient to meet the Company's liquidity needs.

Regulatory Capital

The Company is subject to minimum regulatory capital requirements. Federal banking agencies have adopted regulations establishing minimum requirements for the capital adequacy of banks and bank holding companies. The requirements address both risk-based capital and leverage capital. As of March 31, 2006, and June 30, 2005, the Bank met all applicable adequacy requirements.

The FDIC has in place qualifications for banks to be classified as "well-capitalized." As of June 15, 2005, the most recent notification from the FDIC categorized the Bank as "well-capitalized." There were no conditions or events since the FDIC notification that have changed the Bank's classification.

PART I: Item 3: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
SOUTHERN MISSOURI BANCORP, INC.

Asset and Liability Management and Market Risk

The goal of the Company's asset/liability management strategy is to manage the interest rate sensitivity of both interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities in order to maximize net interest income without exposing the Bank to an excessive level of interest rate risk. The Company employs various strategies intended to manage the potential effect that changing interest rates may have on future operating results. The primary asset/liability management strategy has been to focus on matching the anticipated repricing intervals of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. At times, however, depending on the level of general interest rates, the relationship between long- and short-term interest rates, market conditions and competitive factors, the Company may determine to increase its interest rate risk position somewhat in order to maintain its net interest margin.

In an effort to manage the interest rate risk resulting from fixed rate lending, the Bank has utilized longer term FHLB advances (maturities up to ten years), subject to early redemption and fixed terms. Other elements of the Company's current asset/liability strategy include: (i) increasing originations of commercial real estate and commercial business loans, which typically provide higher yields and shorter repricing periods, but inherently increased credit risk; (ii) increasing loans receivable through the origination of adjustable-rate residential loans, (iii) limiting the price volatility of the investment portfolio by maintaining a weighted average maturity of less than five years, (iv) actively soliciting less rate-sensitive deposits, and (v) offering competitively priced money market accounts and CDs with maturities of up to five years. The degree to which each segment of the strategy is achieved will affect profitability and exposure to interest rate risk.

During the first nine months of fiscal year 2006, fixed rate residential loan production totaled $17.3 million, as compared to $14.3 million during the same period of the prior year. At March 31, 2006 the fixed rate residential loan portfolio was $89.0 million with a weighted average maturity of 196 months, as compared to $82.1 million at March 31, 2005 with a weighted average maturity of 185 months. The Company originated $7.5 million in adjustable-rate residential loans during the nine-month period ended March 31, 2006, as compared to $8.5 million during the same period of the prior year. At March 31, 2006, fixed rate loans with remaining maturities in excess of 10 years totaled $77.2 million, or 27.8% of loans receivable, as compared to $76.6 million, or 29.2% of loans receivable at March 31, 2005. The Company originated $60.9 million in adjustable rate commercial loans during the nine month period ended March 31, 2006 as compared to $55.3 million during the same period of the prior year. Over the last several years, the Company has maintained a weighted average life of its investment portfolio of less than 3.6 years. Management continues to focus on customer retention, customer satisfaction, and offering new products to customers in order to increase the Company's amount of less rate-sensitive deposit accounts. During the nine-month period ended March 31, 2006, we have offered special rate/term certificates of deposit in order to reduce the amount of FHLB overnight borrowings, resulting in an increase of $17.4 million in certificates of deposit as compared to March 31, 2005. Management has felt that the cost of overnight borrowings would continue to increase, due to predictions that the Federal Open Market Committee would continue to raise rates; for that reason, management determined that brokered deposits were an attractive funding option. We have increased brokered deposits during the first nine months of fiscal 2006 by $7.8 million; these new deposits carry a waighted-average rate of 4.04%, roughly equivalent to the cost of overnight borrowings at the time they were originated, but have a weignted average maturity of over ten months.

Interest Rate Sensitivity Analysis

The following table sets forth, as of March 31, 2006, management's estimates of the projected changes in net portfolio value ("NPV") in the event of 100, 200, and 300 basis point ("bp") instantaneous and permanent parallel increases and 100, 200 and 300 basis point instantaneous and permanent decreases in market interest rates. Dollar amounts are expressed in thousands.

-300  36,436  5,843  19% 9.95% 1.32%


Computations of prospective effects of hypothetical interest rate changes are based on an internally generated model using actual maturity and repricing schedules for the Bank's loans and deposits, and are based on numerous assumptions, including relative levels of market interest rates, loan repayments and deposit run-offs, and should not be relied upon as indicative of actual results. Further, the computations do not contemplate any actions the Bank may undertake in response to changes in interest rates.

Management cannot predict future interest rates or their effect on the Bank's NPV in the future. Certain shortcomings are inherent in the method of analysis presented in the computation of NPV. For example, although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or periods to repricing, they may react in differing degrees to changes in market interest rates. Additionally, certain assets, such as adjustable-rate loans, have an initial fixed rate period typically from one to five years and over the remaining life of the asset changes in the interest rate are restricted. Also, the proportion of adjustable-rate loans in the Bank's portfolio could decrease in future periods due to refinancing activity if market interest rates remain steady in the future. Further, in the event of a change in interest rates, prepayment and early withdrawal levels could deviate significantly from those assumed in the table. Finally, the ability of many borrowers to service their adjustable-rate debt may decrease in the event of an interest rate increase.

The Bank's Board of Directors (the "Board") is responsible for reviewing the Bank's asset and liability policies. The Board's Asset/Liability Committee meets monthly to review interest rate risk and trends, as well as liquidity and capital ratios and requirements. The Bank's management is responsible for administering the policies and determinations of the Board with respect to the Bank's asset and liability goals and strategies.

PART I: Item 4: Controls and Procedures
SOUTHERN MISSOURI BANCORP, INC.

An evaluation of Southern Missouri Bancorp's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the "Act")) as of March 31, 2006, was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and several other members of our senior management. The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2006, 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 management (including the Chief Executive Officer and 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. There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Act) that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2006, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

The Company does not expect that its disclosures 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 a 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 also is 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 or 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.

Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires that companies evaluate and annually report on their systems of internal control over financial reporting. In addition, our independent accountants must report on management's evaluation of its internal control over financial reporting. We are in the process of evaluating, documenting and testing our system of internal control over financial reporting to provide the basis for our report that will, for the first time, be a required part of our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2007. Due to the ongoing evaluation and testing of our internal controls, there can be no assurance that if any control deficiencies are identified they will be remediated before the end of the 2006 fiscal year, or that there may not be significant deficiencies or material weaknesses that would be required to be reported. In addition, we expect the evaluation process and any required remediation, if applicable, to increase our accounting, legal and other costs and divert management resources from core business operations.

PART II: Other Information
SOUTHERN MISSOURI BANCORP, INC.

Item 1 - Legal Proceedings

Except as set forth below, in the opinion of management, the Bank is not a party to any pending claims or lawsuits that are expected to have a material effect on the Bank's financial condition or operations. Periodically, there have been various claims and lawsuits involving the Bank mainly as a defendant, such as claims to enforce liens, condemnation proceedings on properties in which the Bank holds security interests, claims involving the making and servicing of real property loans and other issues incident to the Bank's business. Aside from such pending claims and lawsuits, which are incident to the conduct of the Bank's ordinary business, the Bank is not a party to any material pending legal proceedings that would have a material effect on the financial condition or operations of the Bank.

In early 2005, the Bank discovered there had been an adverse development with respect to a substandard loan, which resulted from allegedly fraudulent activities on the part of a significant borrower. The resolution of the borrower's assets has resulted in litigation between the Bank and another financial institution with non-performing loans to the same borrower, as well as several other entities, including the accounting firm which performed audits on said borrower. The litigation is based on who was the rightful lien holder of various assets of the borrower. To date, we have liquidated all assets of the borrower that we were able to take possession of, and have incurred charge-offs of $4.4 million. At March 31, 2006, the Bank's carrying value of this customer's assets was approximately $264,000 (this amount is reflected in the balance of Other Repossessed Assets; see Nonperforming Assets). To the extent this litigation is settled or resolved in favor of the Bank, current balances and a portion of this write down could be recovered. The Company cannot predict whether or to what extent such a recovery may occur.
