Commitments and Contingent Liabilities and Other Tax Matters |
Note 10 - Commitments and Contingent Liabilities and Other Tax Matters The Company is involved in various legal proceedings that are in various stages of litigation. Some of these actions allege “lender liability” claims on a variety of theories and claim substantial actual and punitive damages. The Company has determined, based on discussions with its counsel that any material loss in such actions, individually or in the aggregate, is remote or the damages sought, even if fully recovered, would not be considered material to the consolidated financial position or results of operations of the Company. However, many of these matters are in various stages of proceedings and further developments could cause management to revise its assessment of these matters. The Company was involved in a dispute related to certain tax matters that were inherited by the Company in its 2004 acquisition of LFIN. The dispute involved claims by the former controlling shareholders of LFIN related to approximately $14 million of tax refunds received by the Company based on deductions taken in 2003 by LFIN in connection with losses on loans acquired from a failed thrift and a dispute LFIN had with the FDIC regarding the tax benefits related to the failed thrift acquisition which originated in 1988. On March 5, 2010, judgment was entered on a jury verdict rendered against the Company in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Oklahoma (the “Court”). Other than the tax refunds that were in dispute, the Company does not have any other disputes regarding tax refunds received by the Company in connection with the LFIN acquisition. An amended judgment was entered in the case on November 19, 2010, in the amount of approximately $24.25 million and it was final and appealable. During December 2010, the Company deposited $24.4 million with the Court in lieu of a supersedeas bond and the Company commenced appealing the judgment. On January 5, 2012, the United States Court of Appeals Tenth Circuit affirmed the amended judgment. On February 28, 2012, the previously deposited $24.4 million was paid to the former controlling shareholders of LFIN and a Release and Satisfaction of Judgment was filed with the Court concluding the matter. During the first quarter of 2012, the Texas State Comptroller refunded approximately $1.2 million in tax in connection with the Company’s 2011 consolidated Franchise Tax Return. The tax was included as a credit to provision for income tax expense on the consolidated statement of income. The recording of the tax refund resulted in a decrease in the Company’s effective tax rate to 31% for the six months ended June 30, 2012.
