Community Bank of Bergen County, NJ Reports Restatement of 2010 Financial Statements
MAYWOOD, N.J.--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--Community Bank of Bergen County, NJ (OTCBB: CMTB) reported today the restatement of its unaudited financial statements for the 12-month period ended December 31, 2010, As a result, the Banka™s net income for such period was revised downward by $830,000.
This correction was discovered during the completion of the outside audit of the Banka™s financial statements for the 15-month period ended December 31, 2010. The period audited for the 2010 financial statements was increased from 12 to 15 months due to the Banka™s decision in 2010 to change its fiscal year end from September 30 to December 31 going forward.
The audit for the 15 months ended December 31, 2010 necessitated certain line item adjustments that were previously unrecorded but were brought to light as a result of the audit. The majority of adjustments affected the Balance Sheet in both Other Assets and Other Liabilities relating to deferred tax assets and current tax liabilities. An adjustment related to the Allowance for Loan Losses was made as well.
The income statement was also affected by these adjusting entries to the extent of approximately $723,000 in additional tax expense for the period and an additional $107,000 in provision for loan loss reserves, for a total downward adjustment of $830,000.
Below are the restated comparative balance sheet and income statement.
