  Re: OptimumBank Holdings, Inc.
     Preliminary Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A
     Filed November 14, 2008
     File No. 000-50755

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This letter is in response to comments contained in a letter dated November 17, 2008 (the “Letter”) from Kathryn McHale, Staff Attorney of the Commission, to Albert J. Finch, Chief Executive Officer, OptimumBank Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”). Those comments, and the response of the Company, are set forth below and are keyed to the sequential numbering of the comments in the Letter and to the heading used in the Letter. Concurrently with the filing of this letter, the Company is filing a revised preliminary proxy statement on Schedule 14A to revise and supplement the disclosure provided in this letter. The revised preliminary proxy statement is marked with blackline tags to show changes from the preliminary proxy statement that was filed with the Commission on November 14, 2008. The page numbers referenced in this correspondence refer to the page number of the revised preliminary proxy statement.

Response: We have disclosed our intended use of the estimated proceeds from the proposed sale to the securities to Treasury by amending our filing to add in the second paragraph on page 7, under the section heading, “Reasons for Proposed Amendment”, the following statement:

“If we participate in the TARP Capital Program, we intend to downstream the proceeds of the issuance of the shares to our subsidiary bank. We intend to use the proceeds to make the Bank’s capital position even stronger, to support our lending activities, and for general corporate purposes.”

Comment 2. Discuss any material effect on your liquidity, capital resources or results of operations if the proposal is approved and the Treasury Department denies your application.

Response: We have disclosed the effect on our liquidity, capital resources or results of operations if the proposal is approved and Treasury denies the application by amending our filing to add in the second paragraph on page 7, under the section heading, “Reasons for Proposed Amendment”, the following statement:

“If the proposed amendment to our articles of incorporation to authorize the preferred stock is approved, but we are unable to participate in the TARP Capital Program, we would still remain well-capitalized. We believe we would have continuing access to a variety of other sources of funding to meet our existing commitments and business needs. However, we recognize that in the current economic climate, it could become more difficult to obtain other funding sources, and the cost of alternative funding could be greater than that of the Capital Purchase Program. We do not believe that a denial of our application by the Treasury would have a material, negative effect on our current liquidity, capital resources or results of operations. A denial may have the effect, however, of making future expansion of the Bank’s business more difficult or more expensive without the additional resources provided by the proceeds of the Capital Purchase Program.”

Comment 3. Item 13 of Schedule 14A requires you to include financial information in your proxy statement if you are seeking authorization to issue common or preferred stock under certain circumstances. We note that you have not included financial information in your proxy statement.

Please explain to us why you believe financial statements are not material in connection with issuing the warrants to purchase comment stock. See Note A to Schedule 14A and Instruction 1 to Item 13(a) of Schedule 14A.

Response: We have amended our filing to include the historical financial information required by Item 13 of Schedule 14A as Appendices B and C to the proxy statement. We have also included references to this information in a new section entitled “Historical Financial Information” on page 4 of the amended filing as follows:

“Our most recent historical financial information can be found in Appendices B and C of this proxy statement. Appendix B contains our audited financial statements and the related notes, and our management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations, filed as part of our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2007. Appendix C contains our unaudited consolidated financial statements and the related notes, and our management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations, filed as part of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2008.”

Lastly, we have referenced our financial statements contained in Appendices B and C in a new section entitled “Pro Forma Financial Information” contained on page 10 of the amended filing. The new section entitled “Pro Forma Financial Information” is set forth below in our response to Comment 3 (continued).

Comment 3 (continued). Where you expect the proceeds of the sale of securities to the Treasury Department to have a material impact on your balance sheet or income statement, our rules require you to provide pro forma statements that comply with Article 11 of Regulation S-X in your proxy statement.

In evaluating the impact of the potential sale of securities to the Treasury Department, you must consider the material effect of the transaction, including:

 

   

how the application of the proceeds of the transaction may potentially affect your net interest margin;

 

   

how the accretion and dividends on the preferred stock will impact the net income available to common shareholders; and

 

   

how the transaction will impact your basic earnings per share, diluted earnings per share, and diluted shares outstanding.

Your assumptions regarding the use of proceeds from the transactions, such as an assumption regarding the pay down of existing debt or the investment of the proceeds in federal funds sold, must be factually supportable. You should consider only those plans for the proceeds that meet the factually supportable criteria.

Where you determine that the proceeds of the sale of securities to the Treasury Department will have a material impact on your balance sheet or income statement and elect to prepare and provide pro forma financial statements, you should include, in your proxy statement, a pro forma balance sheet for the most recent balance sheet date and a pro forma income statement for the most recent annual and interim periods that address the impact of both the minimum and maximum proceeds of the sale. If you choose to provide a textual discussion in lieu of pro forma financial statements, please address the minimum and maximum proceeds of the sale as well as the other items noted below.

In preparing pro forma financial statements, you should discuss any relevant assumptions you have made and you should briefly describe any pro forma adjustments such as your assumptions about interest savings on proceeds applied to pay down debt and interest income earned on proceeds invested. You should state that you used the treasury stock method for purposes of evaluating the effect of the warrants on diluted shares outstanding. You should also describe the methodologies you used to allocate the transaction process [sic] among the securities you may issue to the Treasury Department (relative fair value) and to accrete the discount on the preferred stock.

If you do not believe the sale of the securities to the Treasury Department will have a material impact on your balance sheet or income statement, provide us with your quantitative and qualitative analysis of your conclusion. In your analysis, discuss the impact to each of the items noted above as well as to total shareholders’ equity and your capital ratios.

Response: We have amended our filing to include a new section entitled “Pro Forma Financial Information” on pages 10 through 14 of the proposed amended filing. This new section addresses the concerns outlined above by Staff and is set forth here:

Pro Forma Financial Information

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial data set forth below has been derived by the application of pro forma adjustments to our historical financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2007 and the nine months ended September 30, 2008. The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial data gives effect to the events discussed below as if they had occurred on January 1, 2007 in the case of the statement of income data and September 30, 2008 in the case of the balance sheet data:

 

   

The issuance of $1,526,000 (minimum estimated proceeds) or $4,578,000 (maximum estimated proceeds) of preferred stock to Treasury under the Capital Purchase Program.

 

   

The issuance of warrants to purchase 228,900 shares of our common stock (minimum estimated warrants to be issued) or warrants to purchase 686,700 shares of our common stock (maximum estimated warrants to be issued) assuming an exercise price of $4.76 per share (trailing 20-day OptimumBank Holdings, Inc. average share price as of November 14, 2008).

 

   

The increase in fed funds sold from the proceeds of the Capital Purchase Program.

We present unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet data, including selected line items from our balance sheet and selected capital ratios, as of September 30, 2008. We also present unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated income statements for the year ended December 31, 2007 and the nine months ended September 30, 2008. In each presentation we assume that we receive both the minimum and maximum estimated proceeds from the sale of preferred stock and issue the minimum and maximum number of warrants under the Capital Purchase Program. The pro forma financial data may change materially in both cases based on the actual proceeds received under the Capital Purchase Program if our application is approved by Treasury, the timing and utilization of the proceeds as well as certain other factors including the strike price of the warrants, any subsequent changes in our common stock price, and the discount rate used to determine the fair value of the preferred stock.

This information should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and the related notes filed as part of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007, and included in Appendix B to this proxy statement, and our unaudited consolidated financial statements and the related notes filed as part of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2008, and included in Appendix C to this proxy statement.

(1) Assumes the Capital Purchase Program proceeds are used to invest in daily fed funds sold for the period. The actual impact to net interest income would be different as OptimumBank Holdings expects to utilize a portion of the proceeds for loan origination. However, such impact cannot be estimated at this time as the impact would vary based on the timing when the loans are funded and the actual pricing of any such loans.

(2) Consists of preferred stock dividends at a 5% annual rate as well as accretion of discount on preferred stock upon issuance. The discount is determined based on the value that is allocated to the warrants upon issuance. The discount is accreted back to par value on a constant effective yield method (approximately 7%) over a five year term, which is the expected life of the preferred stock upon issuance. The estimated accretion is based on a number of assumptions which are subject to change. These assumptions include the discount (market rate at issuance) rate on the preferred stock, and assumptions underlying the value of the warrants. The proceeds are allocated based on the relative fair value of the warrants as compared to the fair value of the preferred stock. The fair value of the warrants is determined under a Black-Scholes model. The model includes assumptions regarding OptimumBank Holdings’ common stock price, dividend yield, stock price volatility, as well as assumptions regarding the risk-free interest rate. The lower the value of the warrants, the less negative impact on net income and earnings per share available to common shareholders. The fair value of the preferred stock is determined based on assumptions regarding the discount rate (market rate) on the preferred stock (currently estimated at 14%). The lower the discount rate, the less negative impact on net income and earnings per share available to common shareholders.
(3) As described in the Section titled “Terms of the Capital Purchase Program,” the Treasury would receive warrants to purchase a number of shares of our common stock having an aggregate market price equal to 15% of the proceeds on the date of issuance with a strike price equal to the trailing twenty day trading average prior to November 14, 2008. This pro forma assumes that the warrants would give the Treasury the option to purchase 144,265 shares of OptimumBank Holdings common stock assuming maximum proceeds, and 48,088 shares of OptimumBank Holdings’ common stock assuming the minimum proceeds. The pro forma adjustment shows the increase in diluted shares outstanding assuming that the warrants had been issued on January 1, 2007 at a strike price of $4.76 (based on the trailing 20 day OptimumBank Holdings’ average share price as of November 14, 2008) and remained outstanding for the entire period presented. The treasury stock method was utilized to determine dilution of the warrants for the period presented. The strike price of $4.76 was compared to OptimumBank Holdings’ average daily stock price during the nine months ended September 30, 2008 of $7.61.
(4) Assumes a combined Federal and State income tax rate of 37.63%.

The pro forma adjustment shows the increase in diluted shares outstanding assuming that the warrants had been issued on January 1, 2007 at a strike price of $4.76 (based on the trailing 20 day OptimumBank Holdings’ average share price as of November 14, 2008) and remained outstanding for the entire period presented. The treasury stock method was utilized to determine dilution of the warrants for the period presented. The strike price of $4.76 was compared to OptimumBank Holdings’ average daily stock price during 2007 of $8.44.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial data presented above is not necessarily indicative of our financial position or results of operations that actually would have been attained had proceeds from the Capital Purchase Program been received, or the issuance of the warrants pursuant to the Capital Purchase Program been made, at the dates indicated, and is not necessarily indicative of our financial position or results of operations that will be achieved in the future. In addition, our application to participate in the Capital Purchase Program has not been approved by Treasury. Accordingly, we can provide no assurance that the minimum or maximum estimated proceeds included in the unaudited pro forma financial data will ever be received.

[END OF NEW SECTION]

In addition, in order to facilitate the Staff’s review of our methodology, assumptions and calculations for allocating the transaction proceeds among the securities we may issue to the Treasury Department (relative fair value) and for accreting the discount on the preferred stock, we are providing as Appendix “A” hereto our calculations and accounting entries for our pro forma financial statements.
