Results of Operations
Overview The Company's net income was $2.0 million or $0.04 per diluted share during the three months ended September 30, 2012, which was a $617,000 or 45.7% improvement over the same period in 2011. The Company had net income of $1.3 million or $0.03 per diluted share during the three-month period in the prior year. The Company's net income was $4.4 million or $0.10 per diluted share during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to a net loss of $49.0 million or $1.07 per diluted share in the same period of 2011. The loss in the 2011 period was caused by a $52.6 million non-cash goodwill impairment in the second quarter of that year. Excluding this impairment, the Company's earnings during the nine-month period in 2011 were $3.6 million or $0.08 per diluted share. The following paragraphs describe the reasons for the changes in the Company's earnings during the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, along with other matters affecting the Company's operations.
Net Interest Income The Company's net interest income increased by $113,000 or 0.7% during the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared to the same period in 2011. This improvement was due in part to the repayment of $100.0 million in high-cost borrowings from the FHLB of Chicago that matured during the third quarter of 2012. Also contributing to the improvement was a $51.9 million or 2.3% increase in average earning assets in the third quarter of 2012 compared to the same quarter in the prior year. Earlier in 2012 the Company purchased $158.9 million in held-to-maturity securities that were funded by term borrowings from the FHLB of Chicago. In addition, during the three months ended September 30, 2012, average total loans increased by $38.7 million or 2.8% compared to the same period in 2011. These increases in average earning assets were partially offset by a $108.7 million or 19.8% decrease in average available-for-sale securities during the third quarter of 2012 compared to the same quarter in the previous year. The Company's net interest margin during the third quarter of 2012 was slightly lower than it was in the third quarter of 2011. However, compared to the second quarter of 2012, the Company's net interest margin improved by 24 basis points, due principally to the aforementioned repayment of the borrowings from the FHLB of Chicago.
The Company's net interest income declined by $2.1 million or 4.4% during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to the same period in 2011. This decline was primarily attributable to a decrease in the Company's net interest margin, which was 2.61% in the 2012 nine-month period compared to 2.80% in the same period in 2011. This decline was primarily the result of a lower interest rate environment in 2012, which reduced the return on the Company's earning assets more than the cost of its funding sources. This development was partially offset by the favorable impact of higher earning assets in 2012, as previously described.
The following tables present certain details regarding the Company's average balance sheet and net interest income for the periods indicated. The tables present the average yield on interest-earning assets and the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities. The yields and costs are derived by dividing income or expense by the average balance of interest-earning assets or interest-bearing liabilities, respectively, for the periods shown. The average balances are derived from daily balances over the periods indicated. Interest income includes fees, which are considered adjustments to yields. Net interest spread is the difference between the yield on interest-earning assets and the rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest margin is derived by dividing net interest income by average interest-earning assets. No tax equivalent adjustments were made since the Company does not have any tax exempt investments.

Provision for Loan LossesThe Company's provision for loan losses was $657,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared to $1.1 million in the same period last year. The provision for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, was $2.4 million compared to $5.1 million in the same period last year. During the third quarter of 2012 the Company recorded additional loss provision of $1.8 million against a number of multi-family, commercial real estate, and business loan relationships, as well as residential and consumer loans. This development was partially offset by a $541,000 loss recapture related to a $7.9 million non-performing loan that paid off during the quarter. In addition, Bank Mutual's recorded $597,000 in net loss recaptures during the quarter that were related to a general decline in the dollar amount of its classified loans, as described later in this report.
During the third quarter of 2011, the Company recorded $1.8 million in loss provisions against two unrelated loan relationships that aggregated $6.1 million. During this quarter the Company also recorded $586,000 in loss provisions against a number of multi-family, commercial real estate, and business loan relationships, as well as certain residential and consumer loans. In addition, during the third quarter of 2011 the Company recorded $1.1 million in loss provision that reflected management's concerns at the time relating to general economic and market conditions. The impact of these developments was partially offset by $2.4 million in loss recaptures related to payoffs of a number of non-performing loans.
On a year-to-date basis in 2012 the Company recorded additional loss provision of $4.2 million against a number of multi-family, commercial real estate, and business loan relationships, as well as residential and consumer loans. This development was partially offset by $1.8 million in loss recaptures related to non-performing loans that paid off during the period and to recoveries of previously charged-off loans.
On a year-to-date basis in 2011 the Company recorded $10.8 million in loss provisions against a number of multi-family, commercial real estate, and business loan relationships, and certain smaller residential and consumer loans, as well as loss provisions related to management's general concerns regarding economic and market conditions, as previously described. These developments were partially offset by $5.7 million in loss recaptures on loans that paid-off during the period or were upgraded to performing status.
The Company's provision for loan losses has been trending lower in recent periods. This trend is directionally consistent with recent declines in the Company's non-performing loans and classified loans, as described in "Financial Condition-Asset Quality," below, and is consistent with general trends in the banking industry. It should be noted, however, that the Company's loan portfolio continues to be impacted by slow economic growth, persistent unemployment, and low real estate values. These conditions are particularly challenging for borrowers whose loans are secured by commercial real estate, multi-family real estate, and land. As such, there can be no assurances that non-performing loans and/or classified loans will continue to trend lower in future periods or that the Company's provision for loan losses will not increase in future periods.
Non-Interest Income Total non-interest income increased by $1.4 million or 25.0% and $5.0 million or 31.3% during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to the same periods in 2011, respectively. Significant reasons for this increase are discussed in the following paragraphs.
Service charges on deposits increased by $149,000 or 8.9% during the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared to the same period in 2011. During the nine-month period in 2012 this revenue item increased by $346,000 or 7.3% compared to the same period in 2011. Management attributes these improvements to an increase in the Company's average checking accounts, which increased by $39.3 million or 12.8% during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to the same period in the previous year. In addition, enhancements in recent periods to the Company's commercial deposit products and services generated increased fee revenue in the 2012 periods, particularly related to treasury management services.
Brokerage and insurance commissions were $678,000 million during the three months ended September 30, 2012, a $87,000 or 11.4% decrease from the same period in the previous year. On a year-to-date basis, this source of revenue was $2.2 million in 2012, a $13,000 or 0.6% increase from the same period in 2011. This revenue item consists of commissions earned on sales of tax-deferred annuities, mutual funds, and certain other securities, as well as personal and business insurance products. As such, this revenue item will fluctuate from period to period depending on customer demand for these types of financial products and services, as well as differences caused by the timing of various sales initiatives.
Net loan-related fees and servicing revenue was a loss of $1.1 million during the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared to a loss of $1.0 million in the same period of the previous year. Net loan-related fees and servicing revenue was a loss of $2.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to a loss of $452,000 in the same period of 2011. The following table presents the components of this income statement line item for the periods indicated:

Amortization of MSRs increased in the 2012 periods compared to the same periods in the prior year due to lower market interest rates for one- to four-family mortgage loans, which resulted in increased loan prepayments and faster amortization of the MSRs relative to the 2011 periods. Net loan-related fees and servicing revenue is also impacted by changes in the valuation allowance that is established against MSRs. The change in this allowance is recorded as a recovery or loss, as the case may be, in the period in which the change occurs. Lower market interest rates in 2012 and 2011 resulted in higher prepayment expectations, which caused increases in the MSR valuation allowance during these periods. As of September 30, 2012, the Company had a valuation allowance of $2.8 million against MSRs with a gross book value of $9.1 million. As of the same date the Company serviced $1.1 billion in loans for third-party investors compared to a similar amount one year ago.
The valuation of MSRs, as well as the periodic amortization of MSRs, is significantly influenced by the level of market interest rates and loan prepayments. If interest rates decrease and/or prepayment expectations increase, the Company could potentially record charges to earnings related to increases in the valuation allowance on its MSRs. In addition, amortization expense could increase due to likely increases in loan prepayment activity. Alternatively, if market interest rates for one- to four-family loans increase and/or actual or expected loan prepayment expectations decrease in future periods, the Company could recover all or a portion of previously established allowance on MSRs, as well as record reduced levels of MSR amortization expense.
