Dear Stockholders,
Capitol Federal® Financial, Inc., (the “Company” or “us”) completed fiscal year 2015 with strong earnings reflected
by increased earnings per share, an increase in the quarterly dividends paid per share, completion of our stock
buyback plan, along with continued balance sheet alignment growing our highest yielding assets.
In fiscal year 2015, the Company reported net income of $78.1 million, or $0.58 per share, an increase of $0.02 per
share over the prior fiscal year. Net income was supported by the implementation of our daily leverage strategy
near the end of the prior fiscal year. The Company began this strategy of leveraging up our excess capital through
overnight borrowings from Federal Home Loan Bank Topeka (“FHLB”), investing that money in an overnight account
at the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City and receiving a 6% dividend yield on the FHLB stock we are required to
purchase against the overnight borrowings. In fiscal year 2015 the daily leverage strategy added approximately
$2.8 million to our net income.
Beginning with the February 2015 dividend, the Company increased its quarterly dividend by $0.01 to $0.085 per
share. In addition, the Company completed another capital distribution from Capitol Federal® Savings Bank (the
“Bank”) which allowed us to continue the True Blue® dividend of $0.25 per share in June 2015. In December 2015,
the Company paid its true-up dividend for the current fiscal year of $0.25 per share. For the calendar year, the
Company paid $0.84 per share to its stockholders.
During fiscal year 2015 the Company completed its $175.0 million stock buyback plan announced in November
2012. The Company repurchased 14.6 million shares at an average price of $11.95. In October 2015, the Company
announced a $70.0 million stock buyback plan representing approximately 5% of capital at September 30,
2015. Since becoming a fully-public company in December 2010, the Company has returned $964.1 million to
stockholders which consisted of cash dividends of $596.1 million and stock buybacks of $368.0 million.
The Company continued its balance sheet alignment during the current fiscal year by reducing the securities
portfolio and increasing the loan portfolio. This allowed the Company to grow its highest yielding assets without
incurring increased funding costs through increased leverage. The securities portfolio, which yielded 1.96%, was
reduced by $364.2 million while the loan portfolio, which yielded 3.69%, increased by $391.9 million, or 6.3%
during the current fiscal year. Within the loan portfolio, growth occurred in large part due to the purchase of loans
from correspondent lenders as well as an increase in commercial real estate and construction loans through loan
participations. Deposits grew $177.2 million during the current fiscal year as our cost of deposits remained flat for
fiscal year 2015 compared to the prior fiscal year. The cost of FHLB advances decreased six basis points during the
current fiscal year due to renewals of advances at lower market rates. Because of the execution of these balance
sheet strategies, the Company was able to maintain its net interest margin at the same level as the prior fiscal year,
2.07% (without considering the impact of our daily leverage strategy).
The Capitol Federal Foundation, a separate entity, continues to have a major impact on our communities through
its gifts to housing initiatives, education, the United Way and other general charitable activities in the market areas
we serve. During the current fiscal year, the Foundation has awarded grants totaling $5.2 million. The Foundation
has given away over $50.3 million in charitable contributions since its founding in April 1999 and has assets of
approximately $96.3 million.
Sincerely,
John B. Dicus
Chairman, President & CEO

(1) These ratios were adjusted to exclude the effects of the daily leverage strategy. This adjusted financial data is not presented in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Management believes it is important for comparability purposes to provide
these adjusted financial ratios because of the unique nature of the daily leverage strategy. See “Part II, Item 6. Selected Financial Data” of the Annual
Report on Form 10-K for additional information.
In periods prior to September 30, 2015, this ratio was calculated using end-of-period total assets in the denominator in accordance with regulatory
capital requirements at that point in time. As of September 30, 2015, this ratio is calculated using current quarter average assets in the denominator in
accordance with current regulatory capital requirements.

1 PART I
As used in this Form 10-K, unless we specify otherwise, "the Company," "we," "us," and "our" refer to Capitol Federal
Financial, Inc. a Maryland corporation. "Capitol Federal Savings," and "the Bank," refer to Capitol Federal Savings Bank, a
federal savings bank and the wholly-owned subsidiary of Capitol Federal Financial, Inc.
Item 1. Business
General
The Company is a Maryland corporation that was incorporated in April 2010. The Company's common stock is traded on the
Global Select tier of the NASDAQ Stock Market under the symbol "CFFN."
The Bank is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and is a federally chartered and insured savings bank headquartered
in Topeka, Kansas. The Bank is examined and regulated by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the "OCC"), its
primary regulator, and its deposits are insured up to applicable limits by the Deposit Insurance Fund ("DIF"), which is
administered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"). We primarily serve the metropolitan areas of Topeka,
Wichita, Lawrence, Manhattan, Emporia and Salina, Kansas and a portion of the metropolitan area of greater Kansas City
through 37 traditional and 10 in-store branches. The Company, as a savings and loan holding company, is examined and
regulated by the FRB.
We have been, and intend to continue to be, a community-oriented financial institution offering a variety of financial services
to meet the needs of the communities we serve. We attract retail deposits from the general public and invest those funds
primarily in permanent loans secured by first mortgages on owner-occupied, one- to four-family residences. While our
primary business is the origination of one- to four-family loans, we also purchase whole one- to four-family loans from
correspondent lenders, originate consumer loans primarily secured by mortgages on one- to four-family residences, originate
and participate in loans with other lenders that are secured by commercial or multi-family real estate, and invest in certain
investment securities and mortgage-backed securities ("MBS") using funding from retail deposits, brokered and public unit
deposits, Federal Home Loan Bank Topeka ("FHLB") borrowings, and repurchase agreements. We offer a variety of deposit
accounts having a wide range of interest rates and terms, which generally include savings accounts, money market accounts,
interest-bearing and noninterest-bearing checking accounts, and certificates of deposit with terms ranging from 91 days to 96
months. Our revenues are derived principally from interest on loans, MBS, investment securities, and FHLB stock.
The Company is significantly affected by prevailing economic conditions, including federal monetary and fiscal policies and
federal regulation of financial institutions. Retail deposit balances are influenced by a number of factors, including interest
rates paid on competing investment products, the level of personal income, and the personal rate of savings within our market
areas. Lending activities are influenced by the demand for housing and other loans, our loan underwriting guidelines
compared to those of our competitors, as well as interest rate pricing competition from other lending institutions.
Our executive offices are located at 700 South Kansas Avenue, Topeka, Kansas 66603, and our telephone number at that
address is (785) 235-1341.
Available Information
Our Internet website address is www.capfed.com. Our annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current
reports on Form 8-K, and all amendments to those reports can be obtained free of charge from our website. These reports are
available on our website as soon as reasonably practicable after they are electronically filed with or furnished to the SEC.
These reports are also available on the SEC's website at http://www.sec.gov.
2 Market Area and Competition
Our corporate office is located in Topeka, Kansas. We currently have a network of 47 branches (37 traditional branches and
10 in-store branches) located in nine counties throughout Kansas and three counties in Missouri. We primarily serve the
metropolitan areas of Topeka, Wichita, Lawrence, Manhattan, Emporia, and Salina, Kansas and a portion of the metropolitan
area of greater Kansas City. In addition to providing full service banking offices, we provide our customers mobile banking,
telephone banking and bill payment services, and online banking and bill payment services. We also have a call center which
operates on extended hours.
The Bank ranked second in deposit market share, at 7.23%, in the state of Kansas as reported in the June 30, 2015 FDIC
"Summary of Deposits - Market Share Report." The first and third ranked institutions had an 8.13% and a 5.29% deposit
market share, respectively. Deposit market share is measured by total deposits, without consideration for type of deposit. We
do not offer commercial deposit accounts, while many of our competitors have both commercial and retail deposits in their
total deposit base. Some of our competitors also offer products and services that we do not, such as trust services and private
banking, which may add to their total deposits. Consumers also have the ability to utilize online financial institutions and
investment brokerages that are not confined to any specific market area. Management considers our well-established retail
banking network together with our reputation for financial strength and customer service to be major factors in our success at
attracting and retaining customers in our market areas.
The Bank consistently has been one of the top one- to four-family lenders with regard to mortgage loan origination volume in
the state of Kansas. Through our strong relationships with real estate agents and marketing efforts, which reflect our
reputation and pricing, we attract mortgage loan business from walk-in customers, customers that apply online, and existing
customers. Competition in originating one- to four-family loans primarily comes from other savings institutions, commercial
banks, credit unions, and mortgage bankers. Other savings institutions, commercial banks, credit unions, and finance
companies provide vigorous competition in consumer lending.
Lending Practices and Underwriting Standards
General. Originating and purchasing loans secured by one- to four-family residential properties is the Bank's primary
lending business, resulting in a loan concentration in residential first mortgage loans located in Kansas and Missouri. The
Bank also originates consumer loans and construction loans secured by residential properties, and originates and participates
in commercial and multi-family real estate loans and construction loans secured by multi-family or commercial real estate.
One- to Four-Family Residential Real Estate Lending. The Bank originates and services one- to four-family loans that are
not guaranteed or insured by the federal government, and purchases one- to four-family loans, on a loan-by-loan basis, from a
select group of correspondent lenders.
Originated loans
While the Bank originates both fixed- and adjustable-rate loans, our origination volume is dependent upon customer demand
for loans in our market areas. Demand is affected by the local housing market, competition, and the interest rate
environment. During fiscal years 2015 and 2014, the Bank originated and refinanced $697.1 million and $484.3 million of
one- to four-family loans, respectively.
Purchased loans
The Bank purchases one- to four-family loans, on a loan-by-loan basis, from a select group of correspondent lenders. Loan
purchases enable the Bank to attain geographic diversification in the loan portfolio. At September 30, 2015, the Bank had
correspondent lending relationships in 28 states and the District of Columbia. During fiscal years 2015 and 2014, the Bank
purchased $651.0 million and $515.5 million, respectively, of one- to four-family loans from correspondent lenders. We
generally pay a premium of 0.50% to 1.0% of the loan balance to purchase these loans, and we pay 1.0% of the loan balance
to purchase the servicing of these loans.
The Bank has an agreement with a third-party mortgage sub-servicer to provide loan servicing for loans originated by the
Bank's correspondent lenders in certain states. The sub-servicer has experience servicing loans in the market areas in which
we purchase loans and services the loans according to the Bank's servicing standards, which is intended to allow the Bank
greater control over servicing and reporting and help maintain a standard of loan performance.
3
The Bank has also purchased one- to four-family loans from correspondent and nationwide lenders in bulk loan packages.
The last bulk loan package purchased by the Bank was in August 2012. The servicing rights were generally retained by the
lender/seller for the loans purchased from nationwide lenders. The servicing with nationwide lenders is governed by a
servicing agreement, which outlines collection policies and procedures, as well as oversight requirements, such as servicer
certifications attesting to and providing proof of compliance with the servicing agreement.
Underwriting
Full documentation to support an applicant's credit and income, and sufficient funds to cover all applicable fees and reserves
at closing, are required on all loans. Generally, loans are underwritten according to the "ability to repay" and "qualified
mortgage" standards, as issued by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ("CFPB"), with total debt-to-income ratios not
exceeding 43% of a borrower's verified income. Information pertaining to the creditworthiness of the borrower generally
consists of a summary of the borrower's credit history, employment stability, sources of income, assets, net worth, and debt
ratios. The value of the subject property must be supported by an appraisal report prepared in accordance with our appraisal
policy by either a staff appraiser or a fee appraiser, both of which are independent of the loan origination function and who
are approved by our Board of Directors.
Loans over $500 thousand must be underwritten by two senior underwriters. Any loan over $750 thousand must be approved
by our Asset and Liability Management Committee ("ALCO"), and loans over $1.5 million must be approved by our Board
of Directors. For loans requiring ALCO and/or Board of Directors' approval, lending management is responsible for
presenting to ALCO and/or the Board of Directors information about the creditworthiness of the borrower and the market
value of the subject property.
The underwriting standards for loans purchased from correspondent and nationwide lenders are generally similar to the
Bank's internal underwriting standards. The underwriting of correspondent loans is performed by the Bank's underwriters.
Our standard contractual agreement with the lender/seller includes recourse options for any breach of representation or
warranty with respect to the loans purchased. The Bank did not request any lenders/sellers to repurchase loans for breach of
representation during fiscal year 2015.
Adjustable-rate loans
Current adjustable-rate one- to four-family loans originated by the Bank generally provide for a specified rate limit or cap on
the periodic adjustment to the interest rate, as well as a specified maximum lifetime cap and minimum rate, or floor. As a
consequence of using caps, the interest rates on these loans may not be as rate sensitive as our cost of funds. Negative
amortization of principal is not allowed. For three- and five-year adjustable-rate mortgage ("ARM") loans, borrowers are
qualified based on the principal, interest, tax, and insurance payments at the initial interest rate plus the life of loan cap and
the initial interest rate plus the first period cap, respectively. For seven-year ARM loans, borrowers are qualified based on the
principal, interest, tax, and insurance payments at the initial rate. After the initial three-, five-, or seven-year period, the
interest rate resets annually and the new principal and interest payment is based on the new interest rate, remaining unpaid
principal balance, and term of the ARM loan. Our ARM loans are not automatically convertible into fixed-rate loans;
however, we do allow borrowers to pay an endorsement fee to convert an ARM loan to a fixed-rate loan. ARM loans can
pose greater credit risks than fixed-rate loans, primarily because as interest rates rise, the borrower's payment also rises,
increasing the potential for default. This specific type of risk is known as repricing risk.
Pricing
Our pricing strategy for first mortgage loan products includes setting interest rates based on secondary market prices and
local competitor pricing for our local lending markets, and secondary market prices and national competitor pricing for our
correspondent lending markets. ARM loans are offered with a three-year, five-year, or seven-year term to the initial repricing
date. After the initial period, the interest rate for each ARM loan adjusts annually for the remainder of the term of the loan.
Currently, new originations are tied to London Interbank Offered Rates ("LIBOR"); however, other indices have been used in
the past.
4 Mortgage Insurance
For a mortgage with a loan-to-value ("LTV") ratio in excess of 80% at the time of origination, private mortgage insurance
("PMI") is required in order to reduce the Bank's loss exposure. The Bank will lend up to 97% of the lesser of the appraised
value or purchase price for one- to four-family loans, provided PMI is obtained. Management continuously monitors the
claim-paying ability of our PMI counterparties. We believe our PMI counterparties have the ability to meet potential claim
obligations we may file in the foreseeable future.
Loan endorsement program
In an effort to offset the impact of repayments and to retain our customers, existing loan customers, including customers
whose loans were purchased from a correspondent lender, have the opportunity, for a cash fee, to endorse their original loan
terms to current loan terms being offered. Customers whose loans have been sold to third parties, or have been delinquent on
their contractual loan payments during the previous 12 months, or are currently in bankruptcy, are not eligible to participate
in this program. The Bank does not solicit customers for this program, but considers it a valuable opportunity to retain
customers who, based on our initial underwriting criteria, could likely obtain similar financing elsewhere. During fiscal years
2015 and 2014, the Bank endorsed $121.6 million and $36.4 million of one- to four-family loans, respectively.
Repayment
The Bank's one- to four-family loans are primarily fully amortizing fixed-rate or ARM loans. The contractual maturities for
fixed-rate loans can be up to 30 years and the contractual maturities for ARM loans can be up to 30 years; however, there are
certain bulk purchased ARM loans that had original contractual maturities of 40 years. Our one- to four-family loans are
generally not assumable and do not contain prepayment penalties. A "due on sale" clause, allowing the Bank to declare the
unpaid principal balance due and payable upon the sale of the secured property, is generally included in the security
instrument.
Loan sales
One- to four-family loans may be sold on a bulk basis for portfolio restructuring or on a flow basis as loans are originated to
reduce interest rate risk and/or maintain a certain liquidity position. Loans originated by the Bank are generally eligible for
sale in the secondary market. The Bank generally retains the servicing on these loans. ALCO determines the criteria upon
which one- to four-family loans are to be originated as held-for-sale or held-for-investment. One- to four-family loans
originated as held-for-sale are to be sold in accordance with policies set forth by ALCO. One- to four-family loans originated
as held-for-investment are generally not sold unless a specific segment of the portfolio is identified for asset restructuring
purposes. The Bank did not sell any one- to four-family loans during fiscal years 2015 or 2014.
Construction Lending. The Bank originates and purchases construction-to-permanent loans primarily secured by one- to
four-family residential real estate, as well as by multi-family dwellings and commercial real estate. The underwriting details
for multi-family dwelling and commercial real estate are presented in the "Multi-family and Commercial Lending" section
below. At September 30, 2015, we had $129.9 million in construction-to-permanent loans outstanding, including undisbursed
loan funds of $88.9 million, representing approximately 2% of our total loan portfolio. Of the $129.9 million in construction-
to-permanent loans outstanding at September 30, 2015, $75.2 million, or approximately 58%, related to one- to four-family
residential real estate.
The majority of the one- to four-family construction loans are secured by property located within the Bank's Kansas City
market area. Construction loans are obtained by homeowners who will occupy the property when construction is complete.
Construction loans to builders for speculative purposes are not permitted. The application process includes submission of
complete plans, specifications, and costs of the project to be constructed. All construction loans are manually underwritten
using the Bank's internal underwriting standards.
The Bank's one- to four-family construction-to-permanent loan program combines the construction loan and the permanent
loan into one loan allowing the borrower to secure the same interest rate throughout the construction period and the
permanent loan. The loan products and interest rate offered for the one- to four-family construction-to-permanent loan
program are the same as what is offered for non-construction one- to four-family loans. The loan term is longer than the non-
construction one- to four-family loans due to consideration for the construction period, which is generally between 12 and 18
months.
5 Construction draw requests and the supporting documentation are reviewed and approved by authorized management or
experienced construction loan personnel. The Bank also performs regular documented inspections of the construction project
to ensure the funds are being used for the intended purpose and the project is being completed according to the plans and
specifications provided. The Bank charges a 1% fee at closing, based on the loan amount, for these administrative
requirements. Interest is not capitalized during the construction period; it is billed and collected monthly based on the
amount of funds disbursed. Once the construction period is complete, the payment method is changed from interest-only to
an amortized principal and interest payment for the remaining term of the loan.
Consumer Lending. The Bank offers a variety of secured consumer loans, including home equity loans and lines of credit,
home improvement loans, auto loans, and loans secured by savings deposits. The Bank also originates a very limited amount
of unsecured loans. The Bank does not originate any consumer loans on an indirect basis, such as contracts purchased from
retailers of goods or services which have extended credit to their customers. All consumer loans are originated in the Bank's
market areas. At September 30, 2015, our consumer loan portfolio totaled $130.0 million, or approximately 2% of our total
loan portfolio.
The majority of our consumer loan portfolio is comprised of home equity lines of credit which have interest rates that can
adjust monthly based upon changes in the Prime rate, up to a maximum of 18%. For a majority of the home equity lines of
credit, the Bank has the first mortgage or the Bank is in the first lien position. Home equity lines of credit may be originated
up to 90% of the value of the property securing the loan if no first mortgage exists, or up to 90% of the value of the property
securing the loans if taking into consideration an existing first mortgage. Approximately 53%, or $57.2 million, of our home
equity lines at September 30, 2015 were originated with a payment requirement of 1.5% of the outstanding loan balance per
month, but have no stated term-to-maturity and no repayment period. Repaid principal may be re-advanced at any time, not
to exceed the original credit limit of the loan. Approximately 45%, or $48.2 million, of our home equity lines at September
30, 2015 were originated with a 7-year draw period, a 10-year repayment term, and typically a payment requirement of 1.5%
of the outstanding loan balance per month during the draw period, with an amortizing payment during the repayment period.
Repaid principal may be re-advanced at any time during the draw period, not to exceed the original credit limit of the loan.
We also offer interest-only home equity lines of credit. These loans have a maximum term of 12 months and require monthly
payments of accrued interest, and a balloon payment of unpaid principal at maturity. At September 30, 2015, approximately
2%, or $2.0 million, of our home equity lines were interest-only. Closed-end home equity loans, which totaled $18.5 million
at September 30, 2015, may be originated up to 95% of the value of the property securing the loans if taking into
consideration an existing first mortgage, or the lesser of up to $40 thousand or 25% of the value of the property securing the
loan if no first mortgage exists. The term-to-maturity for closed-end home equity loans in the first lien position may be up to
10 years, or may be up to 20 years for loans in the second lien position. Other consumer loan terms vary according to the
type of collateral and the length of the contract. Home equity loans, including lines of credit and closed-end loans, comprised
approximately 97% of our consumer loan portfolio, or $125.8 million, at September 30, 2015; of that amount, 85% were
adjustable-rate.
The underwriting standards for consumer loans include a determination of the applicant's payment history on other debts and
an assessment of the applicant's ability to meet existing obligations and payments on the proposed loan. Although
creditworthiness of the applicant is a primary consideration, the underwriting process also includes a comparison of the value
of the security in relation to the proposed loan amount.
Consumer loans generally have shorter terms-to-maturity or reprice more frequently, usually without periodic caps, which
reduces our exposure to credit risk and changes in interest rates, and usually carry higher rates of interest than do one- to
four-family loans. However, consumer loans may entail greater credit risk than do one- to four-family loans, particularly in
the case of consumer loans that are secured by rapidly depreciable assets, such as automobiles. Management believes that
offering consumer loan products helps to expand and create stronger ties to our existing customer base by increasing the
number of customer relationships and providing cross-marketing opportunities.
6 Multi-family and Commercial Lending. At September 30, 2015, the Bank's multi-family and commercial loans, including
those that were in the construction period, totaled $165.7 million ($120.8 million net of undisbursed loan funds), or
approximately 2% of our total loan portfolio. These loans were originated by the Bank or were in participation with a lead
bank, and are secured primarily by multi-family dwellings or commercial real estate. The Bank has expanded, and intends to
continue expanding, its commercial real estate and construction loan portfolio through our correspondent lending channel. At
September 30, 2015, $136.6 million ($91.7 million net of undisbursed loan funds) of commercial loans were participation
loans.
Our multi-family loans are secured by small and medium-sized apartment complexes. At September 30, 2015, our largest
multi-family loan had an unpaid principal balance of $5.7 million and was secured by a 40-unit complex in Texas. The
average unpaid principal balance per multi-family loan was $1.1 million at September 30, 2015.
Our commercial real estate loans include a variety of property types, including hotels, office and retail buildings, and senior
housing facilities located in Kansas, Missouri, Colorado, Arkansas, California and Texas. Our largest commercial real estate
loan was $35.2 million at September 30, 2015, but no funds had been disbursed on this loan at September 30, 2015. The loan
is secured by a 304-unit hotel to be constructed in Texas. The loan with the largest unpaid principal balance at September 30,
2015 was a loan for $13.3 million which was secured by a 150-unit hotel in Kansas. The average unpaid principal balance
per commercial real estate loan was $3.7 million at September 30, 2015.
Multi-family and commercial real estate and construction loans are originated or participated in based on the income
producing potential of the property and the financial strength of the borrower and/or guarantors. Generally, for non-
construction properties, the historical net operating income, which is the income derived from the operation of the property
less all operating expenses, must be at least 1.25 times the required payments related to the outstanding debt (debt service
coverage ratio) at the time of origination. For construction projects, the minimum debt service coverage ratio requirement of
1.25 applies to the projected cash flows, and the borrower must have successful experience with the construction and
operation of properties similar to the subject property. As part of the underwriting process, the historical or projected cash
flows are stressed under various scenarios to measure the viability of the project given adverse conditions.
Generally, LTV ratios are limited to 80% for multi-family and commercial real estate loans, depending on the property type.
Appraisals on properties securing these loans are performed by independent state certified fee appraisers. The Bank
generally requires at least 15% cash equity from the borrower for land acquisition, land development, and multi-family or
commercial real estate construction loans. For non-acquisition, development or construction loans, the equity may be from a
combination of cash and the appraised value of the secured property if in excess of the requested loan balance.
The majority of our multi-family loans have amortization terms between 15 and 30 years and maturities ranging from three to
20 years, which generally requires balloon payments of the remaining principal balance. Commercial real estate loans
generally have amortization terms of 15 to 25 years and maturities ranging from five to 20 years, which generally requires
balloon payments of the remaining principal balance. The Bank has participated in a limited number of short-term loans with
a maturity of three years or less. These loans are generally construction-only loans or land development loans that require
interest-only payments for the entire term of the loan. The Bank generally requires personal guarantees from the borrowers
or the individuals that own the borrowing entity, which cover the entire outstanding debt. Consequently, the loans are fully
secured by both a first mortgage on the real estate which serves as collateral and by a full guarantee.
Multi-family and commercial real estate loans have either a fixed or an adjustable interest rate based on prevailing market
rates. The interest rate on ARM loans is based on a variety of indices, generally determined through negotiation with the
borrower or determined by the lead bank. The Bank generally allows interest-only payments during the construction phase of
a project before requiring amortizing payments once the loan converts to a permanent loan. For permanent loans, the Bank
normally requires amortizing payments.
7 We generally do not maintain a tax or insurance escrow account for multi-family or commercial real estate loans. In order to
monitor the adequacy of cash flows on income-producing properties with a principal balance of $1.5 million or more, the
borrower is required to provide financial information annually, including subject property rental rates and income,
maintenance costs, an update of real estate property tax and insurance payments, and personal financial information for the
guarantors. Depending on the financial strength of the project and/or the complexity of the borrower's financials, the Bank
may also perform a global analysis of cash flows to account for all other properties owned by the borrower. If signs of
weakness are identified, the Bank may begin performing more frequent financial and/or collateral reviews to monitor the
credit. Additionally, the Bank may include covenants in the loan agreement that allow the Bank to take action when
weaknesses are detected to potentially prevent the credit from becoming impaired. The covenants are specific to each loan
agreement, based on factors such as the purpose of funds, the collateral type, and the financial strength of the project, the
borrower and the guarantor, among other factors.
Our multi-family and commercial real estate loans are generally large dollar loans to single borrowers or groups of related
borrowers and involve a greater degree of credit risk than one- to four-family loans. Because payments on these loans are
often dependent on the successful operation or management of the properties, repayment of such loans may be subject to
adverse conditions in the economy or the real estate market. If the cash flow from the project is reduced, or if leases are not
obtained or renewed, the borrower's ability to repay the loan may become impaired. The Bank continually monitors the level
of risk in the portfolio, including concentrations in such factors as geographic locations, property types, tenant brand name,
borrowing relationships, and lending relationships in the case of participation loans, among other factors.

Asset Quality
The Bank's traditional underwriting guidelines have provided the Bank with generally low delinquencies and low levels of
non-performing assets compared to national levels. Of particular importance is the complete and full documentation required
for each loan the Bank originates or purchases. This allows the Bank to make an informed credit decision based upon a
thorough assessment of the borrower's ability to repay the loan. A full credit analysis is also performed on multi-family and
commercial real estate and construction loans taking into consideration actual/expected property cash flows, debt service
ratios, stress testing, borrowing entity experience, guarantor strength, demographic research of the project, global cash flows
when appropriate, and the appraisal information. The Bank performs ongoing monitoring of the multi-family and
commercial real estate and construction loans with a loan balance in excess of $1.5 million.
For one- to four-family loans and consumer loans, when a borrower fails to make a loan payment within 15 days after the due
date, a late charge is assessed and a notice is mailed. Collection personnel review all delinquent loan accounts more than 16
days past due. Attempts to contact the borrower occur by personal letter and, if no response is received, by telephone, with
the purpose of establishing repayment arrangements for the borrower to bring the loan current. Repayment arrangements
must be approved by a designated bank employee. For residential mortgage loans serviced by the Bank, beginning at
approximately the 31st day of delinquency, and again at approximately the 50th day of delinquency, information notices are
mailed to borrowers to inform them of the availability of payment assistance programs. Borrowers are encouraged to contact
the Bank to initiate the process of reviewing such opportunities. Once a loan becomes 90 days delinquent, assuming a loss
mitigation solution is not actively in process, a demand letter is issued requiring the loan be brought current or foreclosure
procedures will be implemented. Generally, when a loan becomes 120 days delinquent, and an acceptable repayment plan or
loss mitigation solution has neither been established nor is in the process of being negotiated, the loan is forwarded to legal
counsel to initiate foreclosure. We also monitor whether borrowers who have filed for bankruptcy are meeting their
obligation to pay the mortgage debt in accordance with the terms of the bankruptcy petition.
For purchased loans serviced by a third party, we monitor delinquencies using reports received from the servicers. We
monitor these servicer reports to ensure that the servicer is upholding the terms of the servicing agreement. The reports
generally provide total principal and interest due and length of delinquency, and are used to prepare monthly management
reports and perform delinquent loan trend analysis. Management also utilizes information from the servicers to monitor
property valuations and identify the need to charge-off loan balances. The servicers handle collection efforts per the terms of
the servicing agreement.
11 Delinquent and non-performing loans and other real estate owned ("OREO")

The table below presents the Company's non-performing loans and OREO as of the dates indicated. Non-performing loans
are loans that are 90 or more days delinquent or in foreclosure and nonaccrual loans less than 90 days delinquent but required
to be reported as nonaccrual pursuant to regulatory reporting requirements, even if the loans are current. At all dates
presented, there were no loans 90 or more days delinquent that were still accruing interest. Non-performing assets include
non-performing loans and OREO. OREO primarily includes assets acquired in settlement of loans. Over the past 12 months,
OREO properties were owned by the Bank, on average, for approximately four months before the properties were sold.

(1) Represents loans required to be reported as nonaccrual pursuant to regulatory reporting requirements, even if the loans are current. At September 30,
2015, 2014, 2013, and 2012, this amount was comprised of $2.2 million, $1.1 million, $1.1 million, and $1.2 million, respectively, of loans that were
30 to 89 days delinquent and were reported as such, and $7.2 million, $7.7 million, $5.9 million, and $11.2 million, respectively, of loans that were
current.
(2) Excluding loans required to be reported as nonaccrual pursuant to regulatory reporting requirements, even if the loans are current, non-performing
loans as a percentage of total loans were 0.25%, 0.26%, 0.33%, and 0.35% at September 30, 2015, 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively.
(3) Real estate-related consumer loans where we also hold the first mortgage are included in the one- to four-family category as the underlying collateral is
one- to four-family property.
(4) Represents a single property the Bank purchased for a potential branch site but now intends to sell.
Once a one- to four-family loan is generally 180 days delinquent, a new collateral value is obtained through an appraisal, less
estimated selling costs and anticipated PMI receipts. Any loss amounts identified as a result of this review are charged-off.
At September 30, 2015, $8.9 million, or 56%, of the one-to four-family loans 90 or more days delinquent or in foreclosure
had been individually evaluated for loss and any related losses have been charged-off.
The amount of interest income on nonaccrual loans and troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs") as of September 30, 2015
included in interest income was $1.9 million for the year ended September 30, 2015. The amount of additional interest
income that would have been recorded on nonaccrual loans and TDRs as of September 30, 2015, if they had performed in
accordance with their original terms, was $328 thousand for the year ended September 30, 2015.
The following table presents the top 13 states where the properties securing our one- to four-family loans are located and the
corresponding balance of loans 30 to 89 days delinquent, 90 or more days delinquent or in foreclosure, and weighted average
LTV ratios for loans 90 or more days delinquent or in foreclosure as of September 30, 2015. The LTV ratios were based on
the current loan balance and either the lesser of the purchase price or original appraisal, or the most recent Bank appraisal, if
available. At September 30, 2015, potential losses, after taking into consideration anticipated PMI proceeds and estimated
selling costs, have been charged-off.

14 Troubled Debt Restructurings. For borrowers experiencing financial difficulties, the Bank may grant a concession to the
borrower. Generally, the Bank grants a short-term payment concession to borrowers who are experiencing a temporary cash
flow problem. The most frequently used concession is to reduce the monthly payment amount for a period of 6 to 12 months,
often by requiring payments of only interest and escrow during this period, resulting in an extension of the maturity date of
the loan. For more severe situations requiring long-term solutions, the Bank also offers interest rate reductions to currently-
offered rates and the capitalization of delinquent interest and/or escrow resulting in an extension of the maturity date of the
loan. The Bank does not forgive principal or interest, nor does it commit to lend additional funds, except for situations
generally involving the capitalization of delinquent interest and/or escrow not to exceed the original loan balance, to these
borrowers. See "Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data – Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
– Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Note 4 – Loans Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses" for
additional information related to TDRs.
The following table presents the Company's TDRs, based on accrual status, as of the dates indicated. At September 30, 2015,
$26.1 million of TDRs were included in the ACL formula analysis model and $187 thousand of the ACL was related to these
loans. The remaining $13.7 million of TDRs at September 30, 2015 were individually evaluated for loss and any potential
losses had been charged-off.

Impaired Loans. A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Bank
will be unable to collect all amounts due, including principal and interest, according to the contractual terms of the loan
agreement. Interest income on impaired loans is recognized in the period collected unless the ultimate collection of principal
is considered doubtful. The unpaid principal balance of loans reported as impaired at September 30, 2015, 2014, and 2013
was $57.2 million, $56.3 million, and $69.4 million, respectively. See "Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements and
Supplementary Data – Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
and Note 4 - Loans Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses" for additional information related to impaired loans.
Classified Assets. In accordance with the Bank's asset classification policy, management regularly reviews the problem
assets in the Bank's portfolio to determine whether any assets require classification. Asset classifications are defined as
follows:
•
•
Special mention - These assets are performing assets on which known information about the collateral pledged or
the possible credit problems of the borrower(s) have caused management to have doubts as to the ability of the
borrower(s) to comply with present loan repayment terms and which may result in the future inclusion of such loans
in the non-performing loan categories.
Substandard - An asset is considered substandard if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying
capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Substandard assets include those characterized by the
distinct possibility the Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
• Doubtful - Assets classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent as those classified as substandard, with the
added characteristic that the weaknesses present make collection or liquidation in full on the basis of currently
existing facts and conditions and values highly questionable and improbable.
Loss - Assets classified as loss are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as assets
on the books is not warranted.
•
15 The following table sets forth the recorded investment in assets, classified as either special mention or substandard, as of
September 30, 2015. At September 30, 2015, there were no loans classified as doubtful, and all loans classified as loss were
fully charged-off. See "Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data – Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements – Note 4 – Loans Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses" for additional information related to classified
loans.

Allowance for credit losses and provision for credit losses. Management maintains an ACL to absorb inherent losses in the
loan portfolio based on ongoing quarterly assessments of the loan portfolio. Our ACL methodology considers a number of
factors including the trend and composition of delinquent loans, results of foreclosed property and short sale transactions,
charge-off trends, the current status and trends of local and national economies (particularly levels of unemployment), trends
and current conditions in the real estate and housing markets, and loan portfolio growth and concentrations. See "Part II,
Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Critical Accounting
Policies – Allowance for Credit Losses" and "Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data – Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements – Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" for a full discussion of our ACL
methodology. See "Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data – Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements – Note 4 – Loans Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses" for additional information on the ACL.
At September 30, 2015, our ACL was $9.4 million, or 0.14% of the total loan portfolio and 36.4% of total non-performing
loans. This compares to an ACL of $9.2 million, or 0.15% of the total loan portfolio and 37.0% of total non-performing loans
as of September 30, 2014. The ACL is maintained through provisions for credit losses, which are either charged or credited
to income. The provision for credit losses is established after considering the results of management's quarterly assessment
of the ACL. For the year ended September 30, 2015, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $771 thousand.
The provision in the current fiscal year takes into account net charge-offs of $555 thousand and loan growth.

(1) As a result of the implementation of a new loan charge-off policy in January 2012 in accordance with regulatory requirements, $3.5 million of specific
valuation allowances ("SVAs") were charged-off and are reflected in the year ended September 30, 2012 activity. These charge-offs did not impact the
provision for credit losses, and therefore had no additional income statement impact as the amounts were expensed in previous periods. Excluding the
$3.5 million of SVAs that were charged off in January 2012, ACL to net charge-offs would have been 3.8x for fiscal year 2012. Management believes
it is important to present this ratio excluding the $3.5 million of SVAs charged-off for comparability purposes.

Investment Activities
Federally chartered savings institutions have the authority to invest in various types of liquid assets, including U.S. Treasury
obligations; securities of various federal agencies; government-sponsored enterprises ("GSEs"), including callable agency
securities; municipal bonds; certain certificates of deposit of insured banks and savings institutions; certain bankers'
acceptances; repurchase agreements; and federal funds. Subject to various restrictions, federally chartered savings
institutions may also invest their assets in investment grade commercial paper, corporate debt securities, and mutual funds
whose assets conform to the investments that a federally chartered savings institution is otherwise authorized to make
directly. As a member of FHLB, the Bank is required to maintain a specified investment in FHLB stock. See "Regulation
and Supervision – Federal Home Loan Bank System" and "Office of the Comptroller of the Currency" for a discussion of
additional restrictions on our investment activities.
The Chief Investment Officer has the primary responsibility for management of the Bank's investment portfolio, subject to
the direction and guidance of ALCO. The Chief Investment Officer considers various factors when making decisions,
including the marketability, maturity, and tax consequences of the proposed investment. The composition of the investment
portfolio will be affected by various market conditions, including the slope of the yield curve, the level of interest rates, the
impact on the Bank's interest rate risk, the trend of net deposit flows, the volume of loan sales, the anticipated demand for
funds via withdrawals, repayments of borrowings, and loan originations and purchases.
The general objectives of the Bank's investment portfolio are to provide liquidity when loan demand is high, to assist in
maintaining earnings when loan demand is low, and to maximize earnings while satisfactorily managing liquidity risk,
interest rate risk, reinvestment risk, and credit risk. The portfolio is also intended to create a steady stream of cash flows that
can be redeployed into other assets as the Bank grows the loan portfolio, or reinvested into higher yielding assets should
interest rates rise. Liquidity may increase or decrease depending upon the availability of funds and comparative yields on
investments in relation to the return on loans. Cash flow projections are reviewed regularly and updated to ensure that
adequate liquidity is maintained.
We classify securities as either trading, available-for-sale ("AFS"), or held-to-maturity ("HTM") at the date of purchase.
Securities that are purchased and held principally for resale in the near future are classified as trading securities and are
reported at fair value with unrealized gains and losses reported in the consolidated statements of income. AFS securities are
reported at fair value with unrealized gains and losses reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income
("AOCI") (loss) within stockholders' equity, net of deferred income taxes. HTM securities are reported at cost, adjusted for
amortization of premium and accretion of discount. We have both the ability and intent to hold our HTM securities to
maturity.
On a quarterly basis, management conducts a formal review of securities for the presence of an other-than-temporary
impairment. Management assesses whether an other-than-temporary impairment is present when the fair value of a security
is less than its amortized cost basis at the balance sheet date. For such securities, other-than-temporary impairment is
considered to have occurred if the Company intends to sell the security, if it is more likely than not the Company will be
required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, or if the present value of expected cash flows is not
sufficient to recover the entire amortized cost. Management does not believe any other-than-temporary impairments existed
at September 30, 2015.
Investment Securities. Our investment securities portfolio consists primarily of securities issued by GSEs (primarily Federal
National Mortgage Association ("FNMA"), Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("FHLMC") and the Federal Home
Loan Banks) and taxable and non-taxable municipal bonds. At September 30, 2015, our investment securities portfolio
totaled $566.8 million. The portfolio consisted of securities classified as either HTM or AFS. See "Part II, Item 8. Financial
Statements and Supplementary Data – Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – Note 3 – Securities" and "Part II, Item 7.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Financial Condition – Investment
Securities" for additional information.

Our investment securities portfolio decreased $24.2 million from $590.9 million at September 30, 2014 to $566.8 million at
September 30, 2015. The decrease in the balance was primarily a result of maturities and calls of $188.5 million, partially
offset by purchases of $158.4 million. The cash flows from calls and maturities of investment securities that were not
reinvested into the portfolio were used largely to fund loan growth. The purchases during fiscal year 2015 were fixed-rate
and had a weighted average yield of 1.21% and a weighted average life ("WAL") of approximately 2.1 years at the time of
purchase.
Mortgage-Backed Securities. At September 30, 2015, our MBS portfolio totaled $1.46 billion. The portfolio consisted of
securities classified as either HTM or AFS and were primarily issued by GSEs. The principal and interest payments of MBS
issued by GSEs are collateralized by the underlying mortgage assets with principal and interest payments guaranteed by the
agencies. The underlying mortgage assets are conforming mortgages that comply with FNMA and FHLMC underwriting
guidelines, as applicable, and are therefore not considered subprime. See "Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements and
Supplementary Data – Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – Note 3 – Securities" and "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Financial Condition – Mortgage-Backed Securities" for
additional information.
Our MBS portfolio decreased $340.0 million from $1.80 billion at September 30, 2014 to $1.46 billion at September 30,
2015. During fiscal year 2015, $45.7 million of MBS were purchased, all of which were fixed-rate. The cash flows from
MBS that were not reinvested into the portfolio were used largely to fund loan growth.
MBS generally yield less than the loans that underlie such securities because of the servicing fee retained by the servicer and
the cost of payment guarantees or credit enhancements that reduce credit risk. However, MBS are generally more liquid than
individual mortgage loans and may be used to collateralize certain borrowings and public unit deposits of the Bank. In
general, MBS issued or guaranteed by FNMA and FHLMC are weighted at no more than 20% for risk-based capital purposes
compared to the 50% risk-weighting assigned to most non-securitized one- to four-family loans.
When securities are purchased for a price other than par value, the difference between the price paid and par is accreted to or
amortized against the interest earned over the life of the security, depending on whether a discount or premium to par was
paid. Movements in interest rates affect prepayment rates which, in turn, affect the average lives of MBS and the speed at
which the discount or premium is accreted to or amortized against earnings.
At September 30, 2015, the MBS portfolio included $245.0 million of collateralized mortgage obligations ("CMOs"). CMOs
are special types of securities in which the stream of principal and interest payments on the underlying mortgages or MBS are
used to create investment classes with different maturities and, in some cases, different amortization schedules, as well as a
residual interest, with each such class possessing different risk characteristics. We do not purchase residual interest bonds.
While MBS issued or backed by FNMA and FHLMC carry a reduced credit risk compared to whole mortgage loans, these
securities remain subject to the risk that a fluctuating interest rate environment, along with other factors such as the
geographic distribution of the underlying mortgage loans, may alter the prepayment rate of the underlying mortgage loans
and consequently affect both the prepayment speed and value of the securities. As noted above, the Bank, on some
transactions, pays a premium over par value on MBS purchased. Large premiums could cause significant negative yield
adjustments due to accelerated prepayments on the underlying mortgages. The balance of net premiums on our portfolio of
MBS at September 30, 2015 was $14.2 million.

Sources of Funds
General. Our primary sources of funds are deposits, FHLB borrowings, repurchase agreements, repayments and maturities
of outstanding loans and MBS and other short-term investments, and funds provided by operations.
Deposits. We offer a variety of retail deposit accounts having a wide range of interest rates and terms. Our deposits consist
of savings accounts, money market deposit accounts, interest-bearing and noninterest-bearing checking accounts, and
certificates of deposit. We rely primarily upon competitive pricing policies, marketing, and customer service to attract and
retain deposits. The flow of deposits is influenced significantly by general economic conditions, changes in money market
and prevailing interest rates, and competition. The variety of deposit accounts we offer has allowed us to utilize strategic
pricing to obtain funds and to respond with flexibility to changes in consumer demand. We seek to manage the pricing of our
deposits in keeping with our asset and liability management, liquidity, and profitability objectives. Based on our experience,
we believe that our deposits are stable sources of funds. Despite this stability, our ability to attract and maintain these
deposits and the rates paid on them has been, and will continue to be, significantly affected by market conditions.
The Board of Directors has authorized the utilization of brokers to obtain deposits as a source of funds. Depending on market
conditions, the Bank may use brokered deposits to fund asset growth and gather deposits that may help to manage interest
rate risk. No brokered deposits were acquired during fiscal year 2015 and there were no brokered deposits outstanding at
September 30, 2015. At September 30, 2014 the balance of brokered deposits was $41.9 million.
The Board of Directors also has authorized the utilization of public unit deposits as a source of funds. In order to qualify to
obtain such deposits, the Bank must have a branch in each county in which it collects public unit deposits and, by law, must
pledge securities as collateral for all such balances in excess of the FDIC insurance limits. At September 30, 2015 and 2014,
the balance of public unit deposits was $312.4 million and $258.6 million, respectively.
As of September 30, 2015, the Bank's policy allows for combined brokered and public unit deposits up to 15% of total
deposits. At September 30, 2015, that amount was approximately 6% of total deposits.
Borrowings. We utilize borrowings when, at the time of the borrowing, the proceeds can be invested at a positive rate spread
relative to current asset yields, when we desire additional capacity to fund loan demand, or when they help us meet our asset
and liability management objectives. Historically, our term borrowings have consisted primarily of FHLB advances. FHLB
advances may be made pursuant to several different credit programs, each of which has its own interest rate, maturity,
repayment, and convertible features, if any. All FHLB advances at September 30, 2015 were fixed-rate advances. The Bank
supplements FHLB borrowings with repurchase agreements, wherein the Bank enters into agreements with Board approved
counterparties to sell securities under agreements to repurchase them. These agreements are recorded as financing
transactions as the Bank maintains effective control over the transferred securities. The Bank's internal policy limits total
borrowings to 55% of total assets.
The Bank implemented a leverage strategy ("daily leverage strategy"), beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2014, to
increase earnings. The daily leverage strategy involves borrowing up to $2.10 billion on the Bank's FHLB line of credit with
some or all of the balance being paid down at each quarter end. The proceeds of the borrowings, net of the required FHLB
stock holdings, is deposited at the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City.
At September 30, 2015, we had $2.58 billion of FHLB advances, at par, outstanding, and $700.0 million on the FHLB line of
credit. Total FHLB borrowings are secured by certain qualifying loans pursuant to a blanket collateral agreement with FHLB
and certain securities. At September 30, 2015, we had securities with a fair value of $218.2 million pledged as collateral for
FHLB borrowings. Per FHLB's lending guidelines, total FHLB borrowings cannot exceed 40% of Bank Call Report total
assets without the pre-approval of FHLB senior management. In July 2014, the president of FHLB approved an increase in
the Bank's borrowing limit to 55% of Bank Call Report total assets for one year and then renewed that approval in July 2015
through July 2016, as FHLB borrowings have been and will be in excess of 40% of Call Report total assets at certain points
in time throughout the period due to the daily leverage strategy.
23 At September 30, 2015, repurchase agreements totaled $200.0 million, or approximately 2% of total assets. The Bank may
enter into additional repurchase agreements as management deems appropriate, not to exceed 15% of total assets and subject
to the internal policy limit on total borrowings of 55%. The securities underlying the agreements continue to be carried in the
Bank's securities portfolio. At September 30, 2015, we had securities with a fair value of $225.8 million pledged as collateral
on repurchase agreements. Repurchase agreements are made at mutually agreed upon terms between counterparties and the
Bank. The use of repurchase agreements allows for the diversification of funding sources and the use of securities that were
not being leveraged as collateral.
The following table sets forth certain information relating to the category of borrowings for which the average short-term
balance outstanding during the period was at least 30% of stockholders' equity at the end of each period shown. There were
no short-term borrowings outstanding that were at least 30% of stockholders' equity during fiscal year 2013. The maximum
balance, average balance, and weighted average contractual interest rate during the fiscal years shown reflect borrowings that
were scheduled to mature within one year at any month-end during those years.

Subsidiary and Other Activities
As a federally chartered savings bank, we are permitted by federal regulations to invest up to 2% of the Bank's Call Report
total assets, or $197.2 million at September 30, 2015, in the stock of, or as unsecured loans to, service corporation
subsidiaries. We may invest an additional 1% of the Bank's Call Report total assets, or $98.6 million at September 30, 2015,
in service corporations where such additional funds are used for inner-city or community development purposes.
At September 30, 2015, the Bank had one subsidiary, Capitol Funds, Inc., which had a capital balance of $7.0 million.
Capitol Funds, Inc. has a wholly owned subsidiary, Capitol Federal Mortgage Reinsurance Company ("CFMRC"). CFMRC
serves as a reinsurance company for the majority of the PMI companies the Bank uses in its normal course of operations.
CFRMC stopped writing new business for the Bank in January 2010. CFMRC provides mortgage reinsurance on certain
one- to four-family loans in the Bank's portfolio. During fiscal year 2015, Capitol Funds, Inc. reported consolidated net
income of $42 thousand which included net income of $44 thousand from CFMRC.
Regulation and Supervision
Set forth below is a description of certain laws and regulations that are applicable to Capitol Federal Financial, Inc. and the
Bank.
General. The Bank, as a federally chartered savings bank, is subject to regulation and oversight by the OCC extending to all
aspects of its operations. This regulation of the Bank is intended for the protection of depositors and not for the purpose of
protecting the Company's stockholders. The Bank is required to maintain minimum levels of regulatory capital and is subject
to some limitations on capital distributions to the Company. The Bank also is subject to regulation and examination by the
FDIC, which insures the deposits of the Bank to the maximum extent permitted by law.
The Company is a unitary savings and loan holding company within the meaning of the Home Owners Loan Act ("HOLA").
As such, the Company is registered with the FRB and subject to the FRB regulations, examinations, supervision, and
reporting requirements. In addition, the FRB has enforcement authority over the Company and the Bank. Among other
things, this authority permits the FRB to restrict or prohibit activities that are determined to be a serious risk to the Bank.
24 The OCC and FRB enforcement authority includes, among other things, the ability to assess civil monetary penalties, to issue
cease-and-desist or removal orders, and to initiate injunctive actions. In general, these enforcement actions may be initiated
for violations of laws and regulations and unsafe or unsound practices. Other actions or inactions may provide the basis for
enforcement action, including misleading or untimely reports filed. Except under certain circumstances, public disclosure of
final enforcement actions by the OCC or the FRB is required by law.
Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. The investment and lending authority of the Bank is prescribed by federal laws
and regulations and the Bank is prohibited from engaging in any activities not permitted by such laws and regulations.
As a federally chartered savings bank, the Bank is required to meet a Qualified Thrift Lender test. This test requires the Bank
to have at least 65% of its portfolio assets, as defined by statute, in qualified thrift investments on a monthly average for 9 out
of every 12 months on a rolling basis. Under an alternative test, the Bank may maintain 60% of its assets in those assets
specified in Section 7701(a)(19) of the Internal Revenue Code. Under either test, the Bank is required to maintain a
significant portion of its assets in residential housing related loans and investments. An institution that fails to meet the
Qualified Thrift Lender test must become subject to certain restrictions on its operations, unless within one year it meets the
test, and thereafter remains a Qualified Thrift Lender. These restrictions include a prohibition against capital distributions,
except, with the prior approval of both the OCC and the FRB, for the purpose of paying obligations of a company controlling
the institution. An institution that fails the test a second time must be subjected to the restrictions. If the Bank fails the test a
second time, the Company must immediately register as, and become subject to, the restrictions applicable to a bank holding
company. The activities authorized for a bank holding company are more limited than are the activities authorized for a
savings and loan holding company. Three years after failing the test, an institution must divest all investments and cease all
activities not permissible for both a national bank and a savings association. Failure to meet the Qualified Thrift Lender test
is a statutory violation subject to enforcement action. As of September 30, 2015, the Bank met the Qualified Thrift Lender
test.
The Bank is subject to a 35% of total assets limit on non-real estate consumer loans, commercial paper and corporate debt
securities, and a 20% limit on commercial non-mortgage loans. At September 30, 2015, the Bank had 0% of its assets in non-
real estate consumer loans, commercial paper and corporate debt securities and 0% of its assets in commercial non-mortgage
loans.
The Bank's relationship with its depositors and borrowers is regulated to a great extent by federal laws and regulations,
especially in such matters as the ownership of savings accounts and the form and content of mortgage requirements. In
addition, the branching authority of the Bank is regulated by the OCC. The Bank is generally authorized to branch
nationwide.
The Bank is subject to a statutory lending limit on aggregate loans to one person or a group of persons combined because of
certain common interests. That limit is equal to 15% of our unimpaired capital and surplus, plus an additional 10% for loans
fully secured by readily marketable collateral. At September 30, 2015, the Bank's lending limit under this restriction was
$191.3 million. The Bank has no loans or loan relationships in excess of its lending limit. Total loan commitments and loans
outstanding to the Bank's largest borrower group totaled $109.2 million at September 30, 2015, all of which were current as
of that date.
The Bank is subject to periodic examinations by the OCC. During these examinations, the examiners may require the Bank
to increase its ACL and/or recognize additional charge-offs based on their judgments, which can impact our capital and
earnings. As a federally chartered savings bank, the Bank is subject to a semi-annual assessment, based upon its total assets,
to fund the operations of the OCC.
The OCC has adopted guidelines establishing safety and soundness standards on such matters as loan underwriting and
documentation, asset quality, earnings standards, internal controls and audit systems, interest rate risk exposure, and
compensation and other employee benefits. Any institution regulated by the OCC that fails to comply with these standards
must submit a compliance plan.
25 Insurance of Accounts and Regulation by the FDIC. The DIF of the FDIC insures deposit accounts in the Bank up to
applicable limits. The FDIC assesses deposit insurance premiums on each FDIC-insured institution quarterly based on
annualized rates for one of four risk categories, applied to its assessment base. An institution's assessment base is equal to
average total assets minus its average tangible equity (defined as Tier 1 capital). An institution with end-of-period regulatory
total assets that have not exceeded $10 billion for at least four consecutive quarters is assigned to one of four risk categories
based on its capital, supervisory ratings, and other factors. Well-capitalized institutions that are financially sound with only a
few minor weaknesses are assigned to Risk Category I. Risk Categories II, III and IV present progressively greater risks to
the DIF. A range of initial base assessment rates applies to each Risk Category, adjusted downward based on unsecured debt
issued by the institution and, except for an institution in Risk Category I, adjusted upward if the institution's brokered
deposits exceed 10% of its domestic deposits, to produce total base assessment rates. Total base assessment rates currently
range from 2.5 to 9 basis points for Risk Category I, 9 to 24 basis points for Risk Category II, 18 to 33 basis points for Risk
Category III, and 30 to 45 basis points for Risk Category IV, all subject to further adjustment upward if the institution holds
more than a de minimis amount of unsecured debt issued by another FDIC-insured institution. When the reserve ratio of the
DIF reaches 1.15%, which is expected to occur in 2016, total base assessment rates are scheduled to be reduced to ranges of
1.5 to 7 basis points for Risk Category I, 7 to 22 basis points for Risk Category II, 14 to 29 basis points for Risk Category III
and 25 to 40 basis points for Risk Category IV, subject to the same adjustments as apply to current rates.
An institution with end-of-period regulatory total assets that have exceeded $10 billion for at least four consecutive quarters
is assessed under a complex scorecard method employing many factors. The FDIC may increase or decrease its rates by 2
basis points without further rulemaking. In an emergency, the FDIC may also impose a special assessment. For the fiscal
year ended September 30, 2015, the Bank paid $4.9 million in FDIC premiums.
The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the "Dodd-Frank Act") permanently increased the
maximum amount of deposit insurance for banks, savings institutions, and credit unions to $250 thousand per depositor. The
legislation also increased the required minimum reserve ratio for the DIF, from 1.15% to 1.35% of insured deposits, and
directs the FDIC to offset the effects of increased assessments on depository institutions with less than $10 billion in end-of-
period regulatory total assets by charging higher assessments on institutions with more than $10 billion in end-of-period
regulatory total assets. The FDIC has proposed a rule to accomplish this by imposing a surcharge on institutions with end-of-
period regulatory total assets of more than $10 billion commencing when the reserve ratio reaches 1.15% and ending when it
reaches 1.35%. This surcharge period is expected to begin in 2016 and end by December 31, 2018. Smaller institutions will
receive credits for the portion of their regular assessments that contributed to growth in the reserve ratio between 1.15% and
1.35%. The credits will apply to reduce regular assessments by 2 basis points when the reserve ratio is at least 1.40%.
FDIC-insured institutions are required to pay an additional quarterly assessment called the FICO assessment in order to fund
the interest on bonds issued to resolve thrift failures in the 1980s. This assessment rate is adjusted quarterly to reflect
changes in the assessment base, which is average total assets less average tangible equity, and is the same base as used for the
deposit insurance assessment. These assessments are expected to continue until the bonds mature in the years 2017 through
2019. For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2015, the Bank paid $578 thousand in FICO assessments.
Transactions with Affiliates. Transactions between the Bank and its affiliates are required to be on terms as favorable to the
institution as transactions with non-affiliates, and certain of these transactions are restricted to a percentage of the Bank's
capital, and, in the case of loans, require eligible collateral in specified amounts. In addition, the Bank may not lend to any
affiliate engaged in activities not permissible for a bank holding company or purchase or invest in the securities of affiliates.
Regulatory Capital Requirements. The Bank is required to maintain specified levels of regulatory capital under regulations
of the OCC. In July 2013, the FRB, FDIC and OCC published final rules establishing a new comprehensive capital
framework for U.S. banking organizations. The rules implemented the "Basel III" regulatory capital reforms and changes
required by the Dodd-Frank Act. Basel III refers to various documents released by the Basel Committee on Banking
Supervision. The new rules became effective for the Company and Bank in January 2015, with some rules being transitioned
into full effectiveness over two-to-four years. The new capital rules, among other things, introduced a new capital measure
called "Common Equity Tier 1" ("CET1"), increased the Tier 1 capital ratio requirement, changed the total assets utilized in
the Tier 1 leverage ratio calculation from total assets at quarter end to average total assets during the quarter, changed the
risk-weightings of certain assets for purposes of risk-based capital ratios, created an additional capital conservation buffer
over the required capital ratios, and changed what qualifies as capital for purposes of meeting the various capital
requirements.
26 The new capital rules require a number of changes to regulatory capital deductions and adjustments, subject to a two-year
transition period. One such change relates to AOCI. Under previous capital rules, the effects of AOCI items included in
shareholders' equity were reversed for the purposes of determining regulatory capital ratios. Under the new capital rules, the
effects of certain AOCI items are included; however, an institution that is not an advanced approaches institution, such as the
Company and the Bank, may make a one-time election to continue to exclude these items. Management elected to opt-out of
this requirement in order to remove volatility related to AOCI from the Company and Bank's capital ratios. At September 30,
2015, the Bank had $8.4 million of AOCI.
Risk-weighted assets are determined under the OCC capital regulations, which assign to every asset and certain off-balance
sheet items a risk weight generally ranging from 0% to 150% based on the inherent risk of the asset. Institutions that are not
well capitalized are subject to certain restrictions on brokered deposits and interest rates on deposits. The new capital rules
included changes in the risk-weighting of assets to better reflect credit risk and other risk exposure. These include a 150%
risk weight (up from 100%) for certain high volatility commercial real estate acquisition, development and construction loans
and for non-residential mortgage loans that are 90 days past due or otherwise in nonaccrual status and a 20% (up from 0%)
credit conversion factor for the unused portion of a commitment with an original maturity of one year or less that is not
unconditionally cancellable (up from 0%). Of particular importance to the Bank is that the new capital rules' treatment of
one- to four-family residential mortgage exposures remains the same as under the previous capital rule. This includes a 50%
risk weighting for prudently underwritten first lien mortgage loans that are not past due, reported as nonaccrual, or
restructured, and a 100% risk weight for all other residential mortgages.
CET1 capital and Tier 1 capital for the Company and the Bank consists of common stock, plus related surplus and retained
earnings. Tier 2 capital for the Company and the Bank includes the entire amount of ACL; however, the includable amount
of ACL could be limited in the future if the ACL amount exceeds 1.25% of risk-weighted assets. At September 30, 2015, the
Bank had $9.4 million of ACL, which was less than 1.25% of risk-weighted assets. The entire $9.4 million of ACL is
allowable Tier 2 capital and includable in total risk-based capital. Total capital consists of common stock, plus related
surplus and retained earnings (Tier 1 capital) and the ACL (Tier 2 capital).
Under the new capital rules, the minimum capital ratios are as follows:
•
•
•
•
4.5% CET1 to risk-weighted assets.
6.0% Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets.
8.0% Total capital to risk-weighted assets.
4.0% Tier 1 capital to average consolidated assets as reported on consolidated financial statements (known as the
"leverage ratio").
At September 30, 2015, the Bank had CET1 capital and Tier 1 capital of $1.27 billion, total capital of $1.28 billion, risk-
weighted assets of $4.21 billion, and Call Report quarterly average assets of $11.20 billion. At September 30, 2015, the Bank
had a Tier 1 leverage ratio (Tier 1 capital to total average assets) of 11.3%, CET1 capital ratio (CET1 capital to risk-weighted
assets) of 30.0%, a Tier 1 capital ratio (Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets) of 30.0%, and a total capital ratio (total capital
to risk-weighted assets) of 30.3%.
At September 30, 2015, the Company had CET1 capital and Tier 1 capital of $1.41 billion, total capital of $1.42 billion, risk-
weighted assets of $4.22 billion, and FRB regulatory report quarterly average assets of $11.20 billion. At September 30,
2015, the Company had a Tier 1 leverage ratio (Tier 1 capital to total average assets) of 12.6%, CET1 capital ratio (CET1
capital to risk-weighted assets) of 33.4%, a Tier 1 capital ratio (Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets) of 33.4%, and a total
capital ratio (total capital to risk-weighted assets) of 33.6%. At September 30, 2015, the Bank and Company were considered
well-capitalized under OCC and FRB regulations.
The new capital rules will require the Company and the Bank to meet a capital conservation buffer requirement in order to
avoid constraints on dividends, equity repurchases, and certain compensation. To meet the requirement when it is fully
phased-in, the organization must maintain an amount of CET1 capital that exceeds the buffer level of 2.5% above each of the
minimum risk-weighted asset ratios. The requirement will be phased in over a four year period, starting January 1, 2016,
when the amount of such capital must exceed the buffer level of 0.625%. The buffer level will increase by 0.625% each year
27 until it reaches 2.5% on January 1, 2019. When the capital conservation buffer requirement is fully phased-in, to avoid
constraints, a banking organization must maintain the following capital ratios: (1) CET1 to risk-weighted assets more than
7.0%, (2) Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets more than 8.5%, and (3) total capital (Tier 1 plus Tier 2) to risk-weighted
assets more than 10.5%.
The OCC has the ability to establish an individual minimum capital requirement for a particular institution, which varies
from the capital levels that would otherwise be required under the capital regulations, based on such factors as concentrations
of credit risk, levels of interest rate risk, and the risks of non-traditional activities as well as others. The OCC has not
imposed any such requirement on the Bank.
The OCC is authorized and, under certain circumstances, required to take certain actions against savings banks that fail to
meet the minimum ratios for an adequately capitalized institution. Any such institution must submit a capital restoration plan
and, until such plan is approved by the OCC, may not increase its assets, acquire another institution, establish a branch or
engage in any new activities, and generally may not make capital distributions. The plan must include a guaranty by the
institution's holding company limited to the lesser of 5% of the institution's assets when it became under-capitalized, or the
amount necessary to restore the institution to adequately capitalized status. The OCC is authorized to impose the additional
restrictions on institutions that are less than adequately capitalized.
Federal regulations state that any institution that fails to comply with its capital plan or has Tier 1 risk-based capital ratios of
less than 3.0% or a total risk-based capital ratio of less than 6.0% is considered significantly under-capitalized and must be
made subject to one or more additional specified actions and operating restrictions that may cover all aspects of its operations
and may include a forced merger or acquisition of the institution. An institution with tangible equity to total assets of less
than 2.0% is critically under-capitalized and becomes subject to further mandatory restrictions on its operations. The OCC
generally is authorized to reclassify an institution into a lower capital category and impose the restrictions applicable to such
category if the institution is engaged in unsafe or unsound practices or is in an unsafe or unsound condition. The imposition
by the OCC of any of these measures on the Bank may have a substantial adverse effect on its operations and profitability. In
general, the FDIC must be appointed receiver for a critically under-capitalized institution whose capital is not restored within
the time provided. When the FDIC as receiver liquidates an institution, the claims of depositors and the FDIC as their
successor (for deposits covered by FDIC insurance) have priority over other unsecured claims against the institution.
With respect to the Bank, the new capital rules also revised the "prompt corrective action" regulations, by (1) introducing a
CET1 ratio requirement at each level (other than critically under-capitalized), with the required CET1 ratio being 6.5% for
well-capitalized status; (2) increasing the minimum Tier 1 capital ratio requirement for each category, with the minimum Tier
1 capital ratio for well-capitalized status being 8% (compared to the previous 6%); and (3) eliminating the provision that a
bank with a composite supervisory rating of 1 may have a 3% leverage ratio and still be adequately capitalized. The new
capital rules did not change the total risk-based capital requirement for any "prompt corrective action" category.
Community Reinvestment and Consumer Protection Laws. In connection with its lending activities, the Bank is subject to a
number of federal laws designed to protect borrowers and promote lending to various sectors of the economy and population.
These include the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Truth-in-Lending Act, the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act, the Real
Estate Settlement Procedures Act, the Secure and Fair Enforcement for Mortgage Licensing Act of 2008 ("SAFE Act"), and
the Community Reinvestment Act ("CRA"). In addition, federal banking regulators, pursuant to the Gramm-Leach-Bliley
Act, have enacted regulations limiting the ability of banks and other financial institutions to disclose nonpublic consumer
information to non-affiliated third parties. The regulations require disclosure of privacy policies and allow consumers to
prevent certain personal information from being shared with non-affiliated parties.
The CRA requires the appropriate federal banking agency, in connection with its examination of an FDIC-insured institution,
to assess its record in meeting the credit needs of the communities served by the bank, including low and moderate income
neighborhoods. The federal banking regulators take into account the institution's record of performance under the CRA when
considering applications for mergers, acquisitions, and branches. Under the CRA, institutions are assigned a rating of
outstanding, satisfactory, needs to improve, or substantial non-compliance. The Bank received a satisfactory rating in its
most recent CRA evaluation.
Bank Secrecy Act /Anti-Money Laundering Laws. The Bank is subject to the Bank Secrecy Act and other anti-money
laundering laws and regulations, including the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001. These laws and regulations require the Bank to
implement policies, procedures, and controls to detect, prevent, and report money laundering and terrorist financing and to
28 verify the identity and source of deposits and wealth of its customers. Violations of these requirements can result in
substantial civil and criminal sanctions. In addition, provisions of the USA PATRIOT Act require the federal financial
institution regulatory agencies to consider the effectiveness of a financial institution's anti-money laundering activities when
reviewing mergers and acquisitions.
Federal Securities Law. The common stock of the Company is registered with the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended. The Company is subject to the information, proxy solicitation, insider trading restrictions and other
requirements of the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
The Company stock held by persons who are affiliates of the Company may not be resold without registration or unless sold
in accordance with certain resale restrictions. For this purpose, affiliates are generally considered to be executive officers,
directors and principal stockholders. If the Company meets specified current public information requirements, each affiliate
of the Company will be able to sell in the public market, without registration, a limited number of shares in any three-month
period.
Federal Reserve System. The FRB requires all depository institutions to maintain reserves at specified levels against their
transaction accounts, primarily checking accounts. At September 30, 2015, the Bank was in compliance with these reserve
requirements. The Bank is authorized to borrow from the Federal Reserve Bank "discount window." An eligible institution
need not exhaust other sources of funds before going to the discount window, nor are there restrictions on the purposes for
which the borrower can use primary credit. At September 30, 2015, the Bank had no outstanding borrowings from the
discount window.
Federal Home Loan Bank System. The Bank is a member of FHLB Topeka, which is one of 11 regional Federal Home
Loan Banks. Each FHLB serves as a reserve, or central bank, for its members within its assigned region and is funded
primarily from proceeds derived from the sale of consolidated obligations of the FHLB System. It makes loans, called
advances, to members and provides access to a line of credit in accordance with policies and procedures, established by the
Board of Directors of FHLB, which are subject to the oversight of the Federal Housing Finance Agency ("FHFA").
As a member, the Bank is required to purchase and maintain capital stock in FHLB. The minimum required FHLB stock
amount is generally 4.5% of the Bank's FHLB advances and outstanding balance against the FHLB line of credit, and 2% of
the outstanding principal of loans sold into the Mortgage Partnership Finance program. At September 30, 2015, the Bank had
a balance of $150.5 million in FHLB stock, which was in compliance with this requirement. In past years, the Bank has
received dividends on its FHLB stock, although no assurance can be given that these dividends will continue. On a quarterly
basis, management conducts a review of FHLB to determine whether an other-than-temporary impairment of the FHLB stock
is present. At September 30, 2015, management concluded there was no such impairment.
Federal Savings and Loan Holding Company Regulation. The purpose and powers of the Company are to pursue any or all
of the lawful objectives of a savings and loan holding company and to exercise any of the powers accorded to a savings and
loan holding company.
The HOLA prohibits a savings and loan holding company (directly or indirectly, or through one or more subsidiaries) from
acquiring another savings association, or holding company thereof, without prior written approval from the FRB; acquiring or
retaining, with certain exceptions, more than 5% of a non-subsidiary savings association, a non-subsidiary holding company,
or a non-subsidiary company engaged in activities other than those permitted by the HOLA; or acquiring or retaining control
of a depository institution that is not federally insured. In evaluating applications by savings and loan holding companies to
acquire savings associations, the FRB must consider the financial and managerial resources and future prospects of the
company and institution involved, the effect of the acquisition on the risk to the insurance funds, the convenience and needs
of the community, competitive factors, and other factors.
The Dodd-Frank Act extended to savings and loan holding companies the FRB's "source of strength" doctrine, which has
long applied to bank holding companies. The FRB has promulgated regulations implementing the "source of strength"
policy, which requires holding companies to act as a source of strength to their subsidiary depository institutions by providing
capital, liquidity and other support in times of financial stress.

Taxation
Federal Taxation
General
The Company and the Bank are subject to federal income taxation in the same general manner as other corporations, with
some exceptions discussed below. Neither the Company nor the Bank has been subject to an Internal Revenue Service audit
during the past five years.
Method of Accounting
For federal income tax purposes, the Bank currently reports its income and expenses on the accrual method of accounting and
uses a fiscal year ending on September 30 for filing its federal income tax return.
Minimum Tax
The Internal Revenue Code imposes an alternative minimum tax at a rate of 20% on a base of regular taxable income plus
certain tax preferences, called alternative minimum taxable income. The alternative minimum tax is payable to the extent
such alternative minimum taxable income is in excess of the regular tax. Certain payments of alternative minimum tax may
be used as credits against regular tax liabilities in future years.
Net Operating Loss Carryovers
For federal income tax purposes, a financial institution may carryback net operating losses to the preceding two taxable years
and forward to the succeeding 20 taxable years. As of September 30, 2015, the Company had no net operating loss
carryovers.
State Taxation
The earnings/losses of Capitol Federal Financial, Inc. and Capitol Funds, Inc. are combined for purposes of filing a
consolidated Kansas corporate tax return. The Kansas corporate tax rate is 4.0%, plus a surcharge of 3.0% on earnings
greater than $50 thousand.
The Bank files a Kansas privilege tax return. For Kansas privilege tax purposes, the minimum tax rate is 4.5% of earnings,
which is calculated based on federal taxable income, subject to certain adjustments. The Bank has not received notification
from the state of any potential tax liability for any years still subject to audit.
Additionally, the Bank files state tax returns in various other states where it has significant purchased loans and/or foreclosure
activities. In these states, the Bank has either established nexus under an economic nexus theory or has exceeded enumerated
nexus thresholds based on the amount of interest derived from sources within the state.
Employees
At September 30, 2015, we had a total of 691 employees, including 126 part-time employees. The full-time equivalent of our
total employees at September 30, 2015 was 651. Our employees are not represented by any collective bargaining group.
Management considers its employee relations to be good.

31 Item 1A. Risk Factors
The following is a summary of risk factors relating to the operations of the Bank and the Company. These risk factors are not
necessarily presented in order of significance.
Changes in interest rates could have an adverse impact on our results of operations and financial condition.
Our results of operations are primarily dependent on net interest income, which is the difference between the interest earned
on loans, MBS, and investment securities and dividends received on FHLB stock, and the interest paid on deposits and
borrowings. Changes in interest rates could have an adverse impact on our results of operations and financial condition
because the majority of our interest-earning assets are long-term, fixed-rate loans, while the majority of our interest-bearing
liabilities are shorter term, and therefore subject to a greater degree of interest rate fluctuations. This type of risk is known as
interest rate risk and is affected by prevailing economic and competitive conditions, including monetary policies of the FRB
and fiscal policies of the United States federal government.
The impact of changes in interest rates is generally observed on the income statement. The magnitude of the impact will be
determined by the difference between the amount of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities which either
reprice or mature within a given period of time. This difference provides an indication of the extent to which our net interest
rate spread will be impacted by changes in interest rates. In addition, changes in interest rates will impact the expected level
of repricing of the Bank's mortgage-related assets and callable debt securities. Generally, as interest rates decline, the amount
of interest-earning assets expected to reprice will increase as borrowers have an economic incentive to reduce the cost of their
mortgage or debt, which would negatively impact the Bank's interest income. Conversely, as interest rates rise, the amount of
interest-earning assets expected to reprice will decline as the economic incentive to refinance the mortgage or debt is
diminished. As this occurs, the amount of interest-earning assets repricing could diminish to the point where interest-bearing
liabilities reprice to a higher interest rate, at a faster pace, than interest-earning assets, thus negatively impacting the Bank's
net interest income.
Changes in interest rates can also have an adverse effect on our financial condition as AFS securities are reported at estimated
fair value. We increase or decrease our stockholders' equity, specifically AOCI (loss), by the amount of change in the
estimated fair value of our AFS securities, net of deferred taxes. Increases in interest rates generally decrease the fair value of
AFS securities. Decreases in the fair value of AFS securities would, therefore, adversely impact stockholders' equity.
Changes in interest rates, as they relate to customers, can also have an adverse impact on our financial condition and results
of operations. In times of rising interest rates, default risk may increase among borrowers with ARM loans as the rates on
their loans adjust upward and their payments increase. Fluctuations in interest rates also affect customer demand for deposit
products. Local competition could affect our ability to attract deposits, or could result in us paying more than competitors for
deposits.
In addition to general changes in interest rates, changes that affect the shape of the yield curve could negatively impact the
Bank. The Bank's interest-bearing liabilities are generally priced based on short-term interest rates while the majority of the
Bank's interest-earning assets are priced based on long-term interest rates. Income for the Bank is primarily driven by the
spread between these rates. As a result, a steeper yield curve, meaning long-term interest rates are significantly higher than
short-term interest rates, would provide the Bank with a better opportunity to increase net interest income. When the yield
curve is flat, meaning long-term interest rates and short-term interest rates are essentially the same, or when the yield curve is
inverted, meaning long-term interest rates are lower than short-term interest rates, the yield between interest-earning assets
and interest-bearing liabilities that reprice is compressed or diminished and would likely negatively impact the Bank's net
interest income.
32 Financial institutions face a variety of risks from cyber attacks including liquidity, capital, operational, compliance
and reputation risks, resulting from fraud, data loss, extortion and disruption of customer service. The occurrence of
any failure, breach or interruption in service involving our systems or those of our service providers, including as a
result of a cyber attack, could damage our reputation, cause losses, increase our expenses and result in a loss of
customers, cause an increase in regulatory scrutiny or expose us to civil litigation and possibly financial liability, any
of which could adversely impact our financial condition, results of operations and the market price of our stock.
Communications and information systems are essential to the conduct of our business, as we use such systems to manage our
customer relationships, our general ledger, our deposits and our loans. In the normal course of our business, we collect,
process, retain and transmit (by email and other electronic means) sensitive and confidential information regarding our
customers, employees and others. We also outsource certain aspects of our data processing to certain third party providers. In
addition to confidential information regarding our customers, employees and others, we, and in some cases a third party,
compile, process, transmit and store proprietary, non-public information concerning our business, operations, plans and
strategies.
Information security risks for financial institutions have increased recently in part because of evolving technologies, the use
of the Internet and telecommunications technologies (including mobile devices) to conduct financial and other business
transactions and the increased sophistication and activities of organized crime, perpetrators of fraud, hackers, terrorists and
others. Cyber criminals and activists use a variety of tactics, such as ransomware, denial of service, and theft of sensitive
business and customer information to extort payment or other concessions from victims. In some cases, these attacks have
caused significant impacts on businesses' access to data and ability to provide services. Other businesses have incurred
serious damage through the release of sensitive information. We are not able to anticipate or implement effective preventive
measures against all incidents of these types, especially because the techniques used change frequently and because attacks
can originate from a wide variety of sources.
We use a variety of physical, procedural and technological safeguards to prevent or limit the impact of system failures,
interruptions and security breaches and to protect confidential information from mishandling, misuse or loss, including
detection and response mechanisms designed to contain and mitigate security incidents. However, there can be no assurance
that such events will not occur or that they will be promptly detected and adequately addressed if they do, and early detection
of security breaches may be thwarted by sophisticated attacks and malware designed to avoid detection. If there is a failure in
or breach of our computer systems or networks, or those of a third-party service provider, the confidential and other
information processed and stored in, and transmitted through, such computer systems and networks could potentially be
jeopardized, or could otherwise cause interruptions or malfunctions in our operations or the operations of our customers,
clients or counterparties.
Our business and operations depend on the secure processing, storage and transmission of confidential and other information
in our computer systems and networks and those of our third party service providers. Although we devote significant
resources and management focus to ensuring the integrity of our systems through information security measures, risk
management practices, relationships with threat intelligence providers and business continuity planning, our facilities,
computer systems, software and networks, and those of our third party service providers, may be vulnerable to external or
internal security breaches, acts of vandalism, unauthorized access, misuse, computer viruses or other malicious code and
cyber attacks that could have a security impact. In addition, breaches of security may occur through intentional or
unintentional acts by those having authorized or unauthorized access to our confidential or other information or the
confidential or other information of our customers, clients or counterparties. While we regularly conduct security and risk
assessments on our systems and those of our third party service providers, there can be no assurance that their information
security protocols are sufficient to withstand a cyber attack or other security breach.
The occurrence of any of the foregoing could subject us to litigation or regulatory scrutiny, cause us significant reputational
damage or erode confidence in the security of our systems, products and services, cause us to lose customers or have greater
difficulty in attracting new customers, have an adverse effect on the value of our common stock or subject us to financial
losses that may not be covered by insurance, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition or results of operations. Furthermore, as information security risks and cyber threats continue to evolve, we may be
required to expend significant additional resources to further enhance or modify our information security measures and/or to
investigate and remediate any information security vulnerabilities or other exposures arising from operational and security
risks.
33 An economic downturn, especially one affecting our geographic market area, could adversely affect our operations
and financial results.
Our primary lending emphasis is the origination and purchase of one- to four-family first loans on residential properties;
therefore, we are particularly exposed to downturns in regional housing markets and, to a lesser extent, the U.S. housing
market. The primary risks inherent in our one- to four-family loan portfolio are declines in economic conditions, elevated
levels of unemployment or underemployment, and declines in residential real estate values. Any one or a combination of
these events may have an adverse impact on borrowers' ability to repay their loans, which could result in increased
delinquencies, non-performing assets, loan losses, and future loan loss provisions.
Additionally, we have a concentration of loans secured in Kansas and Missouri due to our lending practices. Approximately
59% of our loan portfolio is comprised of loans secured by property located in Kansas, and approximately 19% is comprised
of loans secured by property located in Missouri. This makes us vulnerable to a downturn in local economies and real estate
markets. Adverse conditions in these local economies such as inflation, unemployment, recession, natural disasters, or other
factors beyond our control, could impact the ability of our borrowers to repay their loans. Decreases in local real estate
values could adversely affect the value of the property used as collateral for our loans, which could cause us to realize a loss
in the event of a foreclosure. Currently, there is not a single employer or industry in the area on which the majority of our
customers are dependent.
The increase in multi-family and commercial real estate and construction loans in our loan portfolio exposes us to
increased lending risks.
A growing portion of our loan portfolio consists of multi-family and commercial real estate and construction loans. These
types of loans generally expose the Bank to a greater risk of delinquencies, non-performing assets, loan losses, and future
loan loss provisions than one- to four-family residential real estate loans because repayment of such loans often depends on
the successful operations of a business or of the underlying property. Additionally, such loans often involve multiple loans to
single borrowers or groups of related borrowers, and generally have significantly larger average loan balances compared to
one- to four-family residential real estate loans. As a result, an adverse development with respect to one loan or one credit
relationship can expose us to a significantly greater risk of loss compared to an adverse development with respect to a one- to
four-family residential real estate loan. Also, a large portion of our multi-family and commercial real estate and construction
loans were originated/participated in during the past two fiscal years, which makes it difficult to assess the future
performance of these loans because of their relatively limited payment history from which to judge future collectability. We
continually monitor the level of risk in the portfolio, including concentrations in such factors as geographic locations,
property types, tenant brand name, borrowing relationships, and lending relationships in the case of participation loans,
among other factors.
We may be required to provide remedial consideration to borrowers whose loans we purchase from correspondent
and nationwide lenders if it is discovered that the originating company did not properly comply with lending
regulations during the origination process.
We purchase whole one- to four-family loans from correspondent and nationwide lenders. While loans purchased on a loan-
by-loan basis from correspondent lenders are underwritten by the Bank's underwriters and loans purchased in bulk packages
from correspondent and nationwide lenders are evaluated on a certain set of criteria before being purchased, we are still
subject to some risks associated with the loan origination process itself. By law, loan originators are required to comply with
lending regulations at all times during the origination process. Certain compliance related risks associated with the
origination process itself may shift from the originating company to the Bank once the Bank purchases the loan. Should it be
discovered, at any point, that an instance of noncompliance occurred by the originating company during the origination
process, the Bank may still be held responsible and required to remedy the issue for the loans it purchased from the
originator. Remedial actions can include such actions as refunding interest paid to the borrower and adjusting the contractual
interest rate on the loan to the current market rate if advantageous to the borrower. The Bank no longer purchases loans in
bulk from nationwide lenders due primarily to these risks.
Strong competition may limit growth and profitability.
While we are one of the largest mortgage loan originators in the state of Kansas, we compete in the same market areas as
local, regional, and national banks, credit unions, mortgage brokerage firms, investment banking firms, investment brokerage
firms, and savings institutions. We must also compete with online investment and mortgage brokerages and online banks that
are not confined to any specific market area. Many of these competitors operate on a national or regional level, are a
conglomerate of various financial services providers housed under one corporation, or otherwise have substantially greater
34 financial or technological resources than the Bank. We compete primarily on the basis of the interest rates offered to
depositors, the terms of loans offered to borrowers, and the benefits afforded to customers as a local institution and portfolio
lender. Should we face competitive pressure to increase deposit rates or decrease loan rates, our net interest income could be
adversely affected. Additionally, our competitors may offer products and services that we do not or cannot provide, as certain
deposit and loan products fall outside of our accepted level of risk. Our profitability depends upon our ability to compete in
our local market areas.
We operate in a highly regulated industry, which limits the manner and scope of our business activities and will
continue to increase our operational and compliance costs.
We are subject to extensive regulation, supervision, and examination by the OCC, FRB, and the FDIC. These regulatory
authorities exercise broad discretion in connection with their supervisory and enforcement activities, including the ability to
impose restrictions on a bank's operations, reclassify assets, determine the adequacy of a bank's ACL, and determine the level
of deposit insurance premiums assessed. The Dodd-Frank Act created the CFPB with broad powers to supervise and enforce
consumer protection laws, including a wide range of consumer protection laws that apply to all banks and savings
institutions, like the authority to prohibit "unfair, deceptive or abusive" acts and practices. The CFPB also has examination
and enforcement authority over all banks with end-of-period regulatory assets exceeding $10 billion for four consecutive
quarters. The Company does not currently have regulatory assets in excess of $10 billion and has not exceeded $10 billion in
regulatory assets for four consecutive quarters, but it may at some point in the future. Banks with $10 billion or less in end-
of-period regulatory assets will continue to be examined for compliance with the consumer laws and regulations of the CFPB
by their primary bank regulators. The Dodd-Frank Act also weakens the federal preemption rules that have been applicable
for national banks and federal savings associations, and gives state attorneys general the ability to enforce federal consumer
protection laws. Change in the authority and oversight of any of these agencies, whether in the form of regulatory policy, new
regulations or legislation, or additional deposit insurance premiums, could have a material impact on our operations.
Since the enactment of the Dodd-Frank Act, the CFPB has issued a number of new rules and regulations and changed
existing consumer protections regulations, including new rules that generally prohibit creditors from extending mortgage
loans without regard for the consumer's ability-to-repay and add restrictions and requirements to mortgage origination and
servicing practices. In addition, these rules limit prepayment penalties and require the creditor to retain evidence of
compliance with the ability-to-repay requirement for three years. Compliance with these rules has, and may continue to,
change our underwriting practices with respect to mortgage loans and increase our overall regulatory compliance costs.
Moreover, these rules may adversely affect the volume of mortgage loans that we originate and may subject us to increased
potential liabilities related to such residential loan origination activities.
The potential exists for additional laws and regulations, or changes in policy, affecting lending practices, regulatory capital
limits, interest rate risk management, and liquidity standards. Moreover, bank regulatory agencies have been active in
responding to concerns and trends identified in examinations, and have issued many formal enforcement orders requiring
capital ratios in excess of regulatory requirements and/or assessing monetary penalties. Bank regulatory agencies, such as the
OCC and the FDIC, govern the activities in which we may engage, primarily for the protection of depositors, and not for the
protection or benefit of investors. The CFPB enforces consumer protection laws and regulations for the benefit of the
consumer and not the protection or benefit of investors. In addition, new laws and regulations may continue to increase our
costs of regulatory compliance and of doing business, and otherwise affect our operations. New laws and regulations may
significantly affect the markets in which we do business, the markets for and value of our loans and securities, the products
we offer, the fees we can charge and our ongoing operations, costs, and profitability.
The Company's ability to pay dividends is subject to the ability of the Bank to make capital distributions to the
Company.
The long-term ability of the Company to pay dividends to its stockholders is based primarily upon the ability of the Bank to
make capital distributions to the Company, and also on the availability of cash at the holding company level in the event
earnings are not sufficient to pay dividends.
35 The Company's risk-management framework may not be effective in mitigating risk and loss.
The Company maintains an enterprise risk management program that is designed to identify, quantify, monitor, report, and
control the risks that it faces. These risks include: interest-rate, credit, liquidity, operations, reputation, compliance and
litigation. While the Company assesses and improves this program on an ongoing basis, there can be no assurance that its
approach and framework for risk management and related controls will effectively mitigate all risk and limit losses in its
business. If conditions or circumstances arise that expose flaws or gaps in the Company's risk-management program, or if its
controls break down, the performance and value of its business could be adversely affected.
Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments
None.
Item 2. Properties
At September 30, 2015, we had 37 traditional branch offices and 10 in-store branch offices. The Bank owns the office
building and related land in which its home office and executive offices are located, and 28 of its other branch offices. The
remaining 18 branches are either leased or partially owned.
For additional information regarding our lease obligations, see "Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data
– Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – Note 5 – Premises and Equipment, net."
Management believes that our current facilities are adequate to meet our present and immediately foreseeable needs, after
consideration of the remodeling of our Kansas City market area operations center. However, we will continue to monitor
customer growth and expand our branching network, if necessary, to serve our customers' needs.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
The Company and the Bank are involved as plaintiff or defendant in various legal actions arising in the normal course of
business. In our opinion, after consultation with legal counsel, we believe it unlikely that such pending legal actions will
have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

37 Stockholder Return Performance Presentation
In addition to showing the cumulative returns for the Company's common stock and the NASDAQ Composite index, the
stock performance graph contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30,
2014 included the SNL Midcap Bank & Thrift index. The Company believes that a better industry comparison would be
provided by using the SNL U.S. Bank & Thrift index instead of the SNL Midcap Bank & Thrift index, as the SNL U.S. Bank
& Thrift index aligns more closely with the peer group of companies considered by the Company in connection with
executive compensation matters. In accordance with Item 201(e) of Regulation S-K of the Securities and Exchange
Commission, which requires the inclusion of all new indices and all indices used in the immediately preceding year, the line
graph below compares the cumulative total stockholder return on the Company's common stock to the cumulative total return
of the NASDAQ Composite index, the SNL U.S. Bank and Thrift index, and the SNL Midcap Bank and Thrift index for the
period September 30, 2010 through September 30, 2015. The information presented below assumes $100 invested on
September 30, 2010 in the Company's common stock and in each of the indices, and assumes the reinvestment of all
dividends. Historical stock price performance is not necessarily indicative of future stock price performance.

Restrictions on the Payments of Dividends
The Company's ability to pay dividends is dependent, in part, upon its ability to obtain capital distributions from the Bank.
The dividend policy of the Company is subject to the discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend upon a number of
factors, including the Company's financial condition and results of operations, regulatory capital requirements, regulatory
limitations on the Bank's ability to make capital distributions to the Company, and the amount of cash at the holding company
level. See "Item 1. Business – Regulation and Supervision – Limitations on Dividends and Other Capital Distributions" for
additional information regarding the Company's ability to pay dividends.

In periods prior to September 30, 2015, this ratio was calculated using end-of-period total assets in the denominator in accordance with regulatory
capital requirements at that point in time. As of September 30, 2015, this ratio is calculated using current quarter average assets in the denominator in
accordance with current regulatory capital requirements.

the operating expense ratio would have been 0.98%, and the efficiency ratio would have been 47.65%. Management believes it is important for
comparability purposes to provide these adjusted financial data because of the magnitude and non-recurring nature of the contribution to the

40 Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis is intended to assist in understanding the financial condition, results of operations,
liquidity, and capital resources of the Company. The Bank comprises almost all of the consolidated assets and liabilities of
the Company and the Company is dependent primarily upon the performance of the Bank for the results of its operations.
Because of this relationship, references to management actions, strategies and results of actions apply to both the Bank and
the Company.
Executive Summary
The Company's common stock is traded on the Global Select tier of the NASDAQ Stock Market under the symbol "CFFN."
The Company provides a full range of retail banking services through the Bank, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Company, headquartered in Topeka Kansas. The Bank has 37 traditional and 10 in-store banking offices serving primarily
the metropolitan areas of Topeka, Wichita, Lawrence, Manhattan, Emporia and Salina, Kansas and portions of the
metropolitan area of greater Kansas City. We have been, and intend to continue to be, a community-oriented financial
institution offering a variety of financial services to meet the needs of the communities we serve.
The Company's results of operations are primarily dependent on net interest and dividend income, which is the difference
between the interest earned on loans, MBS, investment securities, and cash, along with dividends received on FHLB stock,
and the interest paid on deposits and borrowings. On a weekly basis, management reviews deposit flows, loan demand, cash
levels, and changes in several market rates to assess all pricing strategies. The Bank's pricing strategy for first mortgage loan
products includes setting interest rates based on secondary market prices and local competitor pricing for our local lending
markets, and secondary market prices and national competitor pricing for our correspondent lending markets. Generally,
deposit pricing is based upon a survey of competitors in the Bank's market areas, and the need to attract funding and retain
maturing deposits. The majority of our loans are fixed-rate products with maturities up to 30 years, while the majority of our
retail deposits have maturity or repricing dates of less than two years.
Economic conditions in the Bank's local market areas have a significant impact on the ability of borrowers to repay loans and
the value of the collateral securing these loans. The industries in our market areas are very diversified, specifically in the
Kansas City metropolitan statistical area, which comprises the largest segment of our loan portfolio and deposit base. As of
October 2015, the unemployment rate was 4.1% for Kansas and 5.0% for Missouri, compared to the national average of 5.0%
based on information from the Bureau of Economic Analysis. The Kansas City market area has an average household
income of approximately $75 thousand per annum, based on 2015 estimates from the American Community Survey, which is
a statistical survey by the U.S. Census Bureau. The average household income in our combined market areas is
approximately $70 thousand per annum, with 90% of the population at or above the poverty level, also based on the 2015
estimates from the American Community Survey. The FHFA price index for Kansas and Missouri has not experienced
significant fluctuations during the past 10 years, unlike other market areas of the United States, which indicates relative
stability in property values in our local market areas.
During fiscal year 2015, the Bank continued to utilize the daily leverage strategy to increase earnings. The daily leverage
strategy, during the current fiscal year, involved borrowing up to $2.10 billion on the Bank's FHLB line of credit in two
leverage tiers. The first tier remained borrowed on the FHLB line of credit for the entire fiscal year except at December 31,
2014 and June 30, 2015, when the outstanding balance was repaid to reduce regulatory assessments. The second, and larger,
tier was borrowed at the beginning of each quarter and paid off prior to quarter end, for regulatory purposes. The proceeds of
the borrowings, net of the required FHLB stock holdings, were deposited at the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City. The
increase in average assets resulting from the strategy increased the Bank's federal insurance premium during the current fiscal
year. Additionally, the Bank's Tier 1 leverage ratio decreased from September 30, 2014 to September 30, 2015, as the ratio is
calculated using Call Report total average assets. The daily leverage strategy has had minimal impact on the Bank's interest
rate risk and liquidity.
Net income attributable to the daily leverage strategy was $2.8 million during fiscal year 2015 and $501 thousand during
fiscal year 2014. The pre-tax yield of the daily leverage strategy, which is defined as the annualized pre-tax income resulting
from the transaction as a percentage of the interest-earning assets associated with the transaction, was 0.20% for fiscal year
2015. Management expects to continue this strategy in fiscal year 2016, but intends to repay the entire FHLB line of credit
amount at each quarter end. Additionally, it is expected that net income attributed to the daily leverage strategy will decrease
in fiscal year 2016 compared to fiscal year 2015, as the rate on the FHLB line of credit is in excess of the yield on the cash
41 deposited at the Federal Reserve Bank as of September 30, 2015. However, the strategy will continue to generate income due
to the approximate 6% yield on the FHLB stock.
For fiscal year 2015, the Company recognized net income of $78.1 million, or $0.58 per share, compared to net income of
$77.7 million, or $0.56 per share, for fiscal year 2014. The increase in earnings per share was due mainly to the reduced
number of shares outstanding as a result of the repurchase of shares pursuant to the Company's recently completed $175.0
million stock repurchase plan. The $399 thousand, or 0.5%, increase in net income was due primarily to the daily leverage
strategy. The net interest margin decreased 27 basis points, from 2.00% for the prior fiscal year, to 1.73% for the current
fiscal year as a result of the daily leverage strategy. Excluding the effects of the daily leverage strategy, the net interest
margin would have been 2.07% for the current fiscal year and the prior fiscal year. The positive impact on the net interest
margin resulting from the shift in the mix of interest-earning assets from relatively lower yielding securities to higher
yielding loans was offset by a decrease in market interest rates.
Total assets were $9.84 billion at September 30, 2015 compared to $9.87 billion at September 30, 2014. Loans receivable,
net, increased $391.9 million from September 30, 2014, to $6.63 billion at September 30, 2015. The majority of the loan
growth was funded with cash flows from the MBS portfolio. During the current fiscal year, the Bank originated and
refinanced $780.5 million of loans with a weighted average rate of 3.61%, purchased $651.0 million of loans from
correspondent lenders with a weighted average rate of 3.47%, and participated in $60.3 million of commercial real estate
loans with a weighted average rate of 4.06%.
Total liabilities were $8.43 billion at September 30, 2015 compared to $8.37 billion at September 30, 2014. The $55.8
million increase was due primarily to a $177.2 million, or 3.8%, increase in the deposit portfolio, partially offset by a $99.2
million decrease in FHLB borrowings. The growth in deposits was primarily in the retail certificate of deposit portfolio and
checking portfolio, which increased $89.1 million and $47.7 million, respectively. The decrease in FHLB borrowings was
due primarily to the daily leverage strategy activity.
Stockholders' equity was $1.42 billion at September 30, 2015 compared to $1.49 billion at September 30, 2014. The $76.7
million decrease between periods was due primarily to the payment of $114.2 million in cash dividends and the repurchase of
$46.4 million of common stock, partially offset by net income of $78.1 million.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our most critical accounting policies are the methodologies used to determine the ACL and fair value measurements. These
policies are important to the presentation of our financial condition and results of operations, involve a high degree of
complexity, and require management to make difficult and subjective judgments that may require assumptions or estimates
about highly uncertain matters. The use of different judgments, assumptions, and estimates could cause reported results to
differ materially. These critical accounting policies and their application are reviewed at least annually by our audit
committee. The following is a description of our critical accounting policies and an explanation of the methods and
assumptions underlying their application.
Allowance for Credit Losses. The Company maintains an ACL to absorb inherent losses in the loan portfolio based upon
ongoing quarterly assessments of the loan portfolio. The ACL is maintained through provisions for credit losses which are
either charged or credited to income. The methodology for determining the ACL is considered a critical accounting policy by
management because of the high degree of judgment involved, the subjectivity of the assumptions used, and the potential for
changes in economic conditions that could result in changes to the amount of the recorded ACL. Additionally, bank
regulators have the ability to require the Bank, as they can require all institutions, to increase the ACL or recognize additional
charge-offs based upon their judgment, which may differ from management's judgment. Although management believes that
the Bank has established and maintained the ACL at appropriate levels, additions may be necessary if economic and other
conditions worsen substantially from the current operating environment, and/or if bank regulators require the Bank to
increase the ACL and/or recognize additional charge-offs.
Our primary lending emphasis is the origination and purchase of one- to four-family loans and, to a lesser extent, consumer
loans secured by one- to four-family residential properties, resulting in a loan concentration in residential mortgage
loans. We believe the primary risks inherent in our one- to four-family and consumer loan portfolios are a decline in
economic conditions, elevated levels of unemployment or underemployment, and declines in residential real estate
values. Changes in any one or a combination of these events may adversely affect borrowers' ability to repay their loans,
42 resulting in increased delinquencies, non-performing assets, loan losses, and future loan loss provisions. Although the multi-
family and commercial loan portfolio is subject to the same risk of declines in economic conditions, the primary risk
characteristics inherent in this portfolio include the ability of the borrower to sustain sufficient cash flows from leases and to
control expenses to satisfy their contractual debt payments, and/or the ability to utilize personal and/or business resources to
pay their contractual debt payments if the cash flows are not sufficient. Additionally, if the Bank were to repossess the
secured collateral of a multi-family or commercial loan, the pool of potential buyers is limited more than that for a residential
property. Therefore, the Bank could hold the property for an extended period of time and/or potentially be forced to sell at a
discounted price, resulting in additional losses.
Each quarter, we prepare a formula analysis model which segregates our loan portfolio into categories based on certain risk
characteristics such as loan type (one- to four-family, multi-family, etc.), interest payments (fixed-rate and adjustable-rate),
loan source (originated, correspondent purchased, or bulk purchased), LTV ratios, borrower's credit score and payment status
(i.e. current or number of days delinquent). Consumer loans, such as second mortgages and home equity lines of credit, with
the same underlying collateral as a one- to four-family loan are combined with the one- to four-family loan in the formula
analysis to calculate a combined LTV ratio.
Quantitative loss factors are applied to each loan category in the formula analysis model based on the historical net loss
experience for each respective loan category. Additionally, qualitative loss factors that management believes impact the
collectability of the loan portfolio as of the evaluation date are applied to certain loan categories. Loss factors increase as
loans are classified or become delinquent. See "Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data – Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements – Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" for additional information
related the quantitative and qualitative factors utilized in the formula analysis model.
The factors applied in the formula analysis are reviewed quarterly by management to assess whether the factors adequately
cover probable and estimable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Our ACL methodology permits modifications to the
formula analysis in the event that, in management's judgment, significant factors which affect the collectability of the
portfolio or any category of the loan portfolio, as of the evaluation date, have changed from the current formula
analysis. Management's evaluation of the qualitative factors with respect to these conditions is subject to a higher degree of
uncertainty because they are not identified with a specific problem loan or portfolio segment.
Management utilizes the formula analysis model, along with considering several other data elements, when evaluating the
adequacy of the ACL. Such data elements include the trend and composition of delinquent loans, results of foreclosed
property and short sale transactions, charge-off trends, the current status and trends of local and national economic conditions
(particularly levels of unemployment), trends and current conditions in the real estate and housing markets, and loan portfolio
growth and concentrations. Since our loan portfolio is primarily concentrated in one- to four-family real estate, management
monitors residential real estate market value trends in the Bank's local market areas and geographic sections of the U.S. by
reference to various industry and market reports, economic releases and surveys, and management's general and specific
knowledge of the real estate markets in which we lend, in order to determine what impact, if any, such trends may have on
the level of ACL. Reviewing these data elements assists management in evaluating the overall credit quality of the loan
portfolio and the reasonableness of the ACL on an ongoing basis, and whether changes need to be made to our ACL
methodology. In addition, the adequacy of the Company's ACL is reviewed during bank regulatory examinations. We
consider any comments from our regulators when assessing the appropriateness of our ACL. We seek to apply ACL
methodology in a consistent manner; however, the methodology can be modified in response to changing conditions.
Fair Value Measurements. The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets
and to determine fair value disclosures in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification ("ASC") 820 and ASC 825.
The Company groups its assets at fair value in three levels based on the markets in which the assets are traded and the
reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value, with Level 1 (quoted prices for identical assets in an active
market) being considered the most reliable, and Level 3 having the most unobservable inputs and therefore being considered
the least reliable. The Company bases its fair values on the price that would be received from the sale of an asset in an
orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company maximizes the use of observable
inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The Company did not have any liabilities
that were measured at fair value at September 30, 2015.
43
The Company's AFS securities are its most significant assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Changes in the fair
value of AFS securities are recorded, net of tax, as AOCI in stockholders' equity. The Company primarily uses prices
obtained from third party pricing services to determine the fair value of its securities. Various modeling techniques are used
to determine pricing for the Company's securities, including option pricing, discounted cash flow models, and similar
techniques. The inputs to these models may include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads,
benchmark securities, bids, offers and reference data. There is one security, with a balance of $1.9 million at September 30,
2015, in the AFS portfolio that has significant unobservable inputs requiring the independent pricing services to use some
judgment in pricing the related securities. This AFS security is classified as Level 3. All other AFS securities are classified
as Level 2.
Loans individually evaluated for impairment and OREO are the Company's significant assets measured at fair value on a non-
recurring basis. These non-recurring fair value adjustments involve the application of lower-of-cost-or-fair value accounting
or write-downs of individual assets. Fair values of loans individually evaluated for impairment are estimated through current
appraisals or analyzed based on market indicators. OREO fair values are estimated using current appraisals or listing prices.
Fair values may be adjusted by management to reflect current economic and market conditions and, as such, are classified as
Level 3.

44 Management Strategy
We are a community-oriented financial institution dedicated to serving the needs of customers in our market areas. Our
commitment is to provide qualified borrowers the broadest possible access to home ownership through our mortgage lending
programs and to offer a complete set of personal banking products and services to our customers. We strive to enhance
stockholder value while maintaining a strong capital position. To achieve these goals, we focus on the following strategies:
• Residential Portfolio Lending. We are one of the leading originators of one- to four-family loans in the state of
Kansas. We originate these loans primarily for our own portfolio, and we service the loans we originate. We also
purchase one- to four-family loans from correspondent lenders. We offer both fixed- and adjustable-rate products
with various terms to maturity and pricing options. We maintain strong relationships with local real estate agents to
attract mortgage loan business. We rely on our marketing efforts and customer service reputation to attract mortgage
business from walk-in customers, customers that apply online, and existing customers.
• Retail Financial Services. We offer a wide array of deposit products and retail services. These products include
checking, savings, money market, certificates of deposit, and retirement accounts. They are provided through a
branch network of 47 locations, including traditional branches and retail in-store locations, our call center which
operates on extended hours, mobile banking, telephone banking and bill payment services, and online banking and
bill payment services.
• Cost Control. We generally are very effective at controlling our costs of operations. By using technology, we are
able to centralize our loan servicing and deposit support functions for efficient processing. We have located our
branches to serve a broad range of customers through relatively few branch locations. Our average deposit base per
traditional branch at September 30, 2015 was approximately $115.5 million. This large average deposit base per
branch helps to control costs. Our one- to four-family lending strategy and our effective management of credit risk
allows us to service a large portfolio of loans at efficient levels because it costs less to service a portfolio of
performing loans.
• Asset Quality. We utilize underwriting standards for our lending products that are designed to limit our exposure to
credit risk. We require complete documentation for both originated and purchased loans, and make credit decisions
based on our assessment of the borrower's ability to repay the loan in accordance with its terms.
• Capital Position. Our policy has always been to protect the safety and soundness of the Bank through credit and
operational risk management, balance sheet strength, and sound operations. The end result of these activities has
been a capital ratio in excess of the well-capitalized standards set by the OCC. We believe that maintaining a strong
capital position safeguards the long-term interests of the Bank, the Company, and our stockholders.
•
•
Stockholder Value. We strive to enhance stockholder value while maintaining a strong capital position. One way
that we continue to provide returns to stockholders is through our dividend payments. Total dividends declared and
paid during fiscal year 2015 were $114.2 million, including a $0.25 per share, or $33.9 million, True Blue® Capitol
Dividend paid in June 2015. The Company's cash dividend payout policy is reviewed quarterly by management and
the Board of Directors, and the ability to pay dividends under the policy depends upon a number of factors,
including the Company's financial condition and results of operations, regulatory capital requirements, regulatory
limitations on the Bank's ability to make capital distributions to the Company, and the amount of cash at the holding
company level. It is the intent of the Board of Directors to continue to pay regular quarterly and special cash
dividends each year, and for fiscal year 2016, it is the intent of the Board of Directors and management to continue
with the payout of 100% of the Company's earnings to its stockholders. Another way we have provided returns to
stockholders is through our share repurchase programs. During fiscal year 2015, the Company repurchased
3,875,581 shares of common stock at an average price of $11.99 per share, for a total cost of $46.4 million.
Interest Rate Risk Management. Changes in interest rates are our primary market risk as our balance sheet is
almost entirely comprised of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. As such, fluctuations in interest
rates have a significant impact not only upon our net income but also upon the cash flows related to those assets and
liabilities and the market value of our assets and liabilities. In order to maintain what we believe to be acceptable
levels of net interest income in varying interest rate environments, we actively manage our interest rate risk and
assume a moderate amount of interest rate risk consistent with board policies.
45 Financial Condition
Assets. Total assets were $9.84 billion at September 30, 2015 compared to $9.87 billion at September 30, 2014. In fiscal
year 2015, management continued the strategy of moving cash flows from the relatively lower yielding securities portfolio to
the higher yielding loans receivable portfolio.
Loans Receivable. The loans receivable portfolio, net, increased $391.9 million, or 6.3%, to $6.63 billion at September 30,
2015, from $6.23 billion at September 30, 2014. The increase in the portfolio was due primarily to originations and
purchases outpacing principal repayments between periods. During fiscal year 2015, the Bank originated and refinanced
$780.5 million of loans, purchased $651.0 million of loans from correspondent lenders, and participated in $60.3 million of
commercial real estate loans. The growth in the loan portfolio was primarily funded with cash flows from the MBS portfolio.
The following table presents the balance and weighted average rate of our loan portfolio as of the dates indicated. The
weighted average rate of the loan portfolio decreased 10 basis points from 3.76% at September 30, 2014 to 3.66% at
September 30, 2015. The decrease in the weighted average rate was due primarily to adjustable-rate loans, endorsements,
and refinances repricing loans to lower market rates along with originations and purchases of loans with rates lower than the
weighted average rate of the existing portfolio. Within the one- to four-family loan portfolio at September 30, 2015, 64% of
the loans had a balance at origination of less than $417 thousand.

The following table presents loan origination, refinance, and purchase activity for the periods indicated, excluding
endorsement activity, along with associated weighted average rates and percent of total. The fixed-rate one- to four-family
loans less than or equal to 15 years have an original maturity at origination of less than or equal to 15 years, while fixed-rate
one- to four-family loans greater than 15 years have an original maturity at origination of greater than 15 years. The
adjustable-rate one- to four-family loans less than or equal to 36 months have a term to first reset of less than or equal to 36
months at origination, and adjustable-rate one- to four-family loans greater than 36 months have a term to first reset of greater
than 36 months at origination. Of the $697.1 million of one- to four-family loans originated and refinanced during the
current fiscal year, 77% had loan values of $417 thousand or less. Of the $651.0 million of one- to four-family correspondent
loans purchased during the current fiscal year, 26% had loan values of $417 thousand or less.

Multi-Family and Commercial Real Estate Loans - The Bank has recently been, and intends to continue, participating in
commercial construction-to-permanent loans through our correspondent lending channel and other lead banks. The Bank
generally requires a minimum debt service coverage ratio of 1.25 and limits LTV ratios to 80% for multi-family and
commercial real estate and construction loans, depending on the property type. Multi-family and commercial real estate and
construction loans are originated or participated in based on the income producing potential of the property and the financial
strength of the borrower and/or guarantors.
50 The following table presents multi-family and commercial real estate and construction loans and commitments by industry

51 Securities. The following table presents the distribution of our MBS and investment securities portfolios, at amortized cost,
at the dates indicated. Overall, fixed-rate securities comprised 80% of these portfolios at September 30, 2015. The WAL is
the estimated remaining maturity (in years) after three-month historical prepayment speeds and projected call option
assumptions have been applied. The decrease in the WAL between September 30, 2014 and September 30, 2015 was due
primarily to a decrease in market interest rates between periods, which resulted in an increase in realized prepayments. The
decrease in the weighted average yield between September 30, 2014 and 2015 was due primarily to the repayment of higher
yielding MBS between the two periods, as well as to the purchase of securities with yields less than the weighted average
yield on the existing portfolio. Weighted average yields on tax-exempt securities are not calculated on a fully taxable
equivalent basis.

Liabilities. Total liabilities were $8.43 billion at September 30, 2015 compared to $8.37 billion at September 30, 2014. The
$55.8 million increase was due primarily to a $177.2 million, or 3.8%, increase in the deposit portfolio, partially offset by a
$99.2 million decrease in FHLB borrowings. The growth in deposits was primarily in the retail certificate of deposit
portfolio and checking portfolio, which increased $89.1 million and $47.7 million, respectively. The decrease in FHLB
borrowings was due primarily to having $700.0 million of the daily leverage strategy in place at September 30, 2015
compared to $800.0 million of the daily leverage strategy in place at September 30, 2014. The full daily leverage strategy of
$2.10 billion was reinstated on October 1, 2015.
Deposits - Deposits were $4.83 billion at September 30, 2015 compared to $4.66 billion at September 30, 2014. We continue
to be competitive on deposit rates and, in some cases, our offer rates for certificates of deposit have been higher than peers.
Increasing rates offered on longer-term certificates of deposit has been an on-going balance sheet strategy by management in
anticipation of higher interest rates. If interest rates rise, our customers may move the funds from their checking, savings and
money market accounts to higher yielding deposit products within the Bank or withdraw their funds from these accounts,
including certificates of deposit, to invest in higher yielding investments outside of the Bank.
The following table presents the amount, weighted average rate and percentage of total for the components of our deposit
portfolio at the dates presented.

Stockholders' Equity. Stockholders' equity was $1.42 billion at September 30, 2015 compared to $1.49 billion at September
30, 2014. The $76.7 million decrease between periods was due primarily to the payment of $114.2 million in cash dividends
and the repurchase of $46.4 million of common stock, partially offset by net income of $78.1 million. The $114.2 million, or
$0.84 per share, in cash dividends paid during the current fiscal year consisted of a $0.26 per share, or $35.5 million, cash
true-up dividend related to fiscal year 2014 earnings per the Company's dividend policy, a $0.25 per share, or $33.9 million,
True Blue Capitol Dividend, and four regular quarterly cash dividends totaling $0.33 per share, or $44.8 million. Beginning
with the second quarter of fiscal year 2015, the Company increased the amount of its regular quarterly cash dividend from
$0.075 per share to $0.085 per share. The $33.9 million True Blue Capitol Dividend was funded by a $36.0 million capital
distribution from the Bank to Capitol Federal Financial, Inc.
On October 21, 2015, the Company announced a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.085 per share, or approximately $11.3
million, payable on November 20, 2015 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on November 6, 2015. On
October 29, 2015, the Company announced a fiscal year 2015 cash true-up dividend of $0.25 per share, or approximately
$33.2 million, related to fiscal year 2015 earnings per the Company's dividend policy. The $0.25 per share cash true-up
dividend was determined by taking the difference between total earnings for fiscal year 2015 and total regular quarterly cash
dividends paid during fiscal year 2015, divided by the number of shares outstanding as of October 26, 2015. The cash true-
up dividend is payable on December 4, 2015 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on November 20, 2015, and
is the result of the Board of Directors' commitment to distribute to stockholders 100% of the annual earnings of Capitol
Federal Financial, Inc. for fiscal year 2015.
At September 30, 2015, Capitol Federal Financial, Inc., at the holding company level, had $96.2 million on deposit at the
Bank. For fiscal year 2016, it is the intent of the Board of Directors and management to continue with the payout of 100% of
the Company's earnings to its stockholders. The payout is expected to be in the form of regular quarterly cash dividends of
$0.085 per share, totaling $0.34 for the year, and a cash true-up dividend equal to fiscal year 2016 earnings in excess of the
amount paid as regular quarterly cash dividends during fiscal year 2016. It is anticipated that the fiscal year 2016 cash true-
up dividend will be paid in December 2016. Dividend payments depend upon a number of factors including the Company's
financial condition and results of operations, regulatory capital requirements, regulatory limitations on the Bank's ability to
make capital distributions to the Company, and the amount of cash at the holding company.
The following table presents regular quarterly dividends and special dividends paid in calendar years 2015, 2014, and 2013.
The amounts represent cash dividends paid during each period. The 2015 true-up dividend amount is management's estimate
of the dividend payout as of November 17, 2015, based on the number of shares outstanding on that date and the dividend
announced on October 29, 2015 of $0.25 per share.

Average Balance Sheets. The following table presents the average balances of our assets, liabilities, and stockholders'
equity, and the related weighted average yields and rates on our interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities for the
periods indicated. Weighted average yields are derived by dividing annual income by the average balance of the related
assets, and weighted average rates are derived by dividing annual expense by the average balance of the related liabilities, for
the periods shown. Average outstanding balances are derived from average daily balances. The yields and rates include
amortization of fees, costs, premiums and discounts which are considered adjustments to yields/rates. Yields on tax-exempt
securities were not calculated on a fully taxable equivalent basis.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Years Ended September 30, 2015 and 2014
For fiscal year 2015, the Company recognized net income of $78.1 million, or $0.58 per share, compared to net income of
$77.7 million, or $0.56 per share, for fiscal year 2014. The increase in earnings per share was due mainly to the reduced
number of shares outstanding as a result of the repurchase of shares pursuant to the Company's recently completed $175.0
million stock repurchase plan. The $399 thousand, or 0.5%, increase in net income was due primarily to the daily leverage
strategy. Net income attributable to the daily leverage strategy was $2.8 million during the current fiscal year, compared to
$501 thousand for the prior fiscal year.
Net interest income increased $5.6 million, or 3.1%, from the prior fiscal year to $189.8 million for the current fiscal year due
primarily to the daily leverage strategy. The net interest margin decreased 27 basis points, from 2.00% for the prior fiscal
year, to 1.73% for the current fiscal year as a result of the daily leverage strategy. Excluding the effects of the daily leverage
strategy, the net interest margin would have been 2.07% for the current fiscal year and the prior fiscal year. The positive
impact on the net interest margin resulting from the shift in the mix of interest-earning assets from relatively lower yielding
securities to higher yielding loans was offset by a decrease in market interest rates.
Interest and Dividend Income
The weighted average yield on total interest-earning assets decreased 44 basis points, from 3.15% for the prior fiscal year, to
2.71% for the current fiscal year, while the average balance of interest-earning assets increased $1.74 billion from the prior
fiscal year. The decrease in the weighted average yield and the increase in the average balance were due primarily to the
daily leverage strategy. Absent the impact of the daily leverage strategy, the weighted average yield on total interest-earning
assets would have decreased from 3.25% for the prior fiscal year to 3.22% for the current fiscal year, while the average
balance would have increased $18.1 million. The following table presents the components of interest and dividend income
for the time periods presented along with the change measured in dollars and percent.

The increase in interest income on loans receivable was due to a $307.5 million increase in the average balance of the
portfolio, partially offset by a nine basis point decrease in the weighted average yield on the portfolio, to 3.69% for the
current fiscal year. The weighted average yield decrease was due primarily to adjustable-rate loans, endorsements, and
refinances repricing loans to lower market rates, along with an increase in net deferred premium amortization.
The decrease in interest income on the MBS portfolio was due primarily to a $299.4 million decrease in the average balance
of the portfolio as cash flows not reinvested were used largely to fund loan growth. Additionally, the weighted average yield
on the MBS portfolio decreased 10 basis points, from 2.35% during the prior fiscal year, to 2.25% for the current fiscal year.
The decrease in the weighted average yield was due primarily to repayments of MBS with yields greater than the weighted
average yield on the existing portfolio, as well as to an increase in the impact of net premium amortization. Net premium
amortization of $5.4 million during the current fiscal year decreased the weighted average yield on the portfolio by 32 basis
points. During the prior fiscal year, $5.7 million of net premiums were amortized, which decreased the weighted average
yield on the portfolio by 29 basis points. As of September 30, 2015, the remaining net balance of premiums on our portfolio
of MBS was $14.2 million.
The increase in dividends received on FHLB stock was due primarily to a $70.5 million increase in the average balance as a
result of the daily leverage strategy, as well as to an increase in the FHLB dividend rate between the two periods. The
63 increase in interest income on cash and cash equivalents was due primarily to a $1.71 billion increase in the average balance
resulting mainly from the daily leverage strategy.
Interest Expense
The weighted average rate paid on total interest-bearing liabilities decreased 24 basis points, from 1.36% for the prior fiscal
year, to 1.12% for the current fiscal year, while the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities increased $1.83 billion from
the prior fiscal year due primarily to the daily leverage strategy. Absent the impact of the daily leverage strategy, the
weighted average rate paid on total interest-bearing liabilities would have decreased six basis points from the prior fiscal
year, to 1.35%, due primarily to a decrease in the cost of term borrowings while the average balance of interest-bearing
liabilities would have increased $108.4 million, primarily as a result of deposit growth. The following table presents the
components of interest expense for the time periods presented, along with the change measured in dollars and percent.

The increase in interest expense on FHLB borrowings was due primarily to a $1.72 billion increase in the average balance on
the FHLB line of credit as a result of the daily leverage strategy, partially offset by a six basis point decrease in the weighted
average rate paid on FHLB advances, to 2.43% for the current fiscal year. The decrease in the weighted average rate paid on
the FHLB advance portfolio was primarily a result of renewals of advances to lower market rates during the prior fiscal year.
The decrease in interest expense on repurchase agreements was due primarily to the maturity of a $100.0 million agreement
at 4.20% during the prior fiscal year. The repurchase agreement was replaced with an FHLB advance, which was at a lower
rate than the maturing repurchase agreement.
Provision for Credit Losses
The Bank recorded a provision for credit losses during the current fiscal year of $771 thousand compared to a provision for
credit losses during the prior fiscal year of $1.4 million. The $771 thousand provision for credit losses in the current fiscal
year takes into account net charge-offs of $555 thousand and loan growth. Net charge-offs in the prior fiscal year were $1.0
million.

64 The decrease in insurance commissions was due primarily to a decrease in annual commissions received from certain
insurance providers as a result of less favorable claims experience year-over-year. The decrease in other non-interest income
was due mainly to a decrease in bank-owned life insurance ("BOLI") income, largely due to the receipt of death benefits
during the prior year.

The decrease in salaries and employee benefits expense was due primarily to the prior fiscal year including compensation
expense on unallocated Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP") shares related to two True Blue® Capitol dividends paid
compared to one True Blue Capitol dividend paid during the current fiscal year. The increase in information technology and
communications expense was primarily related to continued upgrades to our information technology infrastructure. The
increase in federal insurance premium was due primarily to the daily leverage strategy. The increase in low income housing
partnerships expense was due mainly to impairments, as well as to an increase in amortization expense due to an increase in
the overall investment balance as a result of funding new partnerships and the general life cycle of the partnership activities.
We continue to grow our investments in low income housing partnerships. Generally, losses associated with these
partnerships out-pace the tax credit benefit in the early years as they establish their operations. The Company will continue
to recognize the amortization of these investments as an operating expense on its income statement because of the
involvement two of the Bank's officers have with the operational management of the low income housing partnership
investment group. Their participation provides the investment group with additional experience in evaluating housing-related
investments and policy matters related to housing investment opportunities. We invest in low income housing partnerships
because we receive an income tax credit in the amount of the original investment recognized over the lifetime of the
investment.
Management anticipates that in fiscal year 2016 other non-interest income will increase approximately $1.7 million due to a
new $50.0 million BOLI policy purchased in September 2015. Additionally, management anticipates that non-interest
expense will increase in fiscal year 2016. It is anticipated that (1) salaries and employee benefits could increase $1.4 million
due to filling vacancies, annual salary adjustments and merit raises, (2) information technology and communications expense
could increase $1.5 million due to ongoing software maintenance, an increase in depreciation expense due mainly to the
implementation of new technology and the upgrade of our disaster recovery location, and enhancing the communication
network among our branches, and (3) other non-interest expense could increase approximately $500 thousand due to the
purchase of cards enabled with chip card technology. Management anticipates the effective tax rate for fiscal year 2016 will
be approximately 32% based on current fiscal year 2016 estimates.
65 The Company's efficiency ratio was 44.74% for the current fiscal year compared to 43.72% for the prior fiscal year. The
change in the efficiency ratio was due primarily to an increase in non-interest expense. The efficiency ratio is a measure of a
financial institution's total non-interest expense as a percentage of the sum of net interest income (pre-provision for credit
losses) and non-interest income. A lower value indicates that the financial institution is generating revenue with a lower level
of expense.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense was $37.7 million for the current fiscal year compared to $37.5 million for the prior fiscal year. The
effective tax rate for the current and prior fiscal year was 32.5%.
Comparison of Operating Results for the Years Ended September 30, 2014 and 2013
For fiscal year 2014, the Company recognized net income of $77.7 million, compared to net income of $69.3 million for
fiscal year 2013. The $8.4 million, or 12.0%, increase in net income was due primarily to a $6.0 million increase in net
interest income, and a $5.4 million decrease in salaries and employee benefits due primarily to a reduction in ESOP-related
expenses. The net interest margin increased three basis points, from 1.97% for fiscal year 2013 to 2.00% for fiscal year 2014.
Decreases in the cost of funds and a shift in the mix of interest-earning assets from relatively lower yielding securities to
higher yielding loans were the primary drivers for the higher net interest margin in fiscal year 2014.
During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2014, the Bank implemented a daily leverage strategy which increased fiscal year
2014 net income by $501 thousand. The pre-tax yield of the daily leverage strategy, which is defined as the annualized pre-
tax income resulting from the transaction as a percentage of the interest-earning assets associated with the transaction, was
0.21% for the period that the strategy was in place during fiscal year 2014. Excluding the effects of the daily leverage
strategy, the net interest margin would have been 2.07% for fiscal year 2014.
Interest and Dividend Income
The weighted average yield on total interest-earning assets decreased 16 basis points from 3.31% for fiscal year 2013 to
3.15% for fiscal year 2014, while the average balance of interest-earning assets increased $197.2 million from fiscal year
2013 due to the daily leverage strategy. The following table presents the components of interest and dividend income for the

The increase in interest income on loans receivable was due to an increase in the average balance of the portfolio, partially
offset by a decrease in the weighted average yield on the portfolio. The weighted average yield on the loans receivable
portfolio decreased 20 basis points, from 3.98% for fiscal year 2013 to 3.78% for fiscal year 2014. The downward repricing
of the loan portfolio was due largely to adjustable-rate loans repricing to lower rates, to loans being purchased at market rates
less than or equal to the weighted average rate of the existing portfolio, and to fiscal year 2014 reflecting the full impact of
the large volume of refinances and endorsements that occurred during fiscal year 2013.
66 The decrease in interest income on MBS and investment securities was due largely to a decrease in the average balance of
each portfolio as cash flows not reinvested in the portfolios were used to fund loan growth, pay dividends, and repurchase
stock. The average balance of the MBS portfolio decreased $316.4 million between the two periods and the average yield on
the MBS portfolio decreased 12 basis points, from 2.47% during fiscal year 2013 to 2.35% for fiscal year 2014. The decrease
in the average yield on the MBS portfolio was due primarily to purchases of MBS between periods with yields less than the
average yield on the existing portfolio, and to repayments of MBS with yields greater than the average yield on the existing
portfolio. Included in interest income on MBS for fiscal year 2014 was $5.7 million from the net amortization of premiums
and the accretion of discounts, decreasing the average yield on the portfolio by 29 basis points. During fiscal year 2013, $8.0
million of net premiums were amortized and decreased the average yield on the portfolio by 35 basis points. At September
30, 2014, the net balance of premiums/(discounts) on our portfolio of MBS was $18.6 million. The decrease in interest
income on investment securities was due primarily to a $193.4 million decrease in the average balance of the portfolio, along
with a five basis point decrease in the yield, from 1.19% during fiscal year 2013, to 1.14% for fiscal year 2014.
The increase in dividends on FHLB stock was due to an increase in the FHLB dividend rate between the two periods and, to a
lesser extent, a $6.7 million increase in the average balance of the portfolio due to the purchase of additional shares of FHLB
stock in conjunction with the daily leverage strategy. Similarly, the increase in interest income on cash and cash equivalents
was due primarily to a $358.3 million increase in the average balance due to the daily leverage strategy, which was $336.8
million of the increase in the average balance during fiscal year 2014.
Interest Expense
The weighted average rate paid on total interest-bearing liabilities decreased 25 basis points from 1.61% for fiscal year 2013
to 1.36% for fiscal year 2014, while the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities increased $315.0 million from fiscal
year 2013 due primarily to an increase in borrowings against the FHLB line of credit in conjunction with the daily leverage
strategy. The following table presents the components of interest expense for the time periods presented, along with the
change measured in dollars and percent. The decrease in interest expense was due primarily to a decrease in the weighted
average rate paid on the portfolios between the two periods.

The weighted average rate paid on the FHLB borrowings portfolio decreased 56 basis points, from 2.77% for fiscal year 2013
to 2.21% for fiscal year 2014. The decrease in the average rate paid was due primarily to maturities and renewals of
advances to lower market rates between periods, as well as to an increase in the use of the low-costing line of credit in
conjunction with the daily leverage strategy. The average balance against the line of credit increased $331.2 million from
fiscal year 2013, largely as a result of the daily leverage strategy. The average balance of FHLB advances decreased $29.4
million between periods, due primarily to some maturing advances not being renewed in their entirety. Absent the impact of
the daily leverage strategy, the average rate paid on FHLB borrowings would have been 2.49% for fiscal year 2014.
The decrease in the weighted average rate paid on the deposit portfolio was due primarily to a decrease in the weighted
average rate paid on the retail certificate of deposit portfolio. The weighted average rate paid on the retail certificate of
deposit portfolio decreased 16 basis points, from 1.39% for fiscal year 2013 to 1.23% for fiscal year 2014.
The weighted average rate paid on repurchase agreements decreased 41 basis points, from 3.79% for fiscal year 2013 to
3.38% for fiscal year 2014. The decrease in the average rate paid on repurchase agreements was due to maturities and a new
agreement entered into between periods which had a rate less than the existing portfolio.
67 Provision for Credit Losses
The Bank recorded a provision for credit losses during fiscal year 2014 of $1.4 million, compared to a $1.1 million negative
provision for credit losses for fiscal year 2013. The $1.4 million provision for credit losses in fiscal year 2014 takes into
account net charge-offs of $1.0 million.

The decrease in salaries and employee benefits was due primarily to a decrease in ESOP-related expenses resulting largely
from the final allocation of ESOP shares acquired in our initial public offering (March 1999) being made at September 30,
2013. In fiscal year 2014, the only ESOP shares allocated were shares acquired in the Company's corporate reorganization in
December 2010. The increase in occupancy expense was due largely to an increase in depreciation expense, which was
primarily associated with the remodeling of our home office. The increase in information technology and communications
expense was primarily related to continued upgrades to our information technology infrastructure. The decrease in regulatory
and outside services was due largely to the timing of fees paid for our external audit. The decrease in advertising and
promotional expense was due primarily to the timing of media campaigns in fiscal year 2013, which included campaigns
delayed from fiscal year 2012, as well as to a general decrease in advertising and promotional campaigns during fiscal year
68 2014, compared to fiscal year 2013. The decrease in other non-interest expense was due largely to a decrease in the
amortization of mortgage-servicing rights assets, a decrease in OREO operations expense, and a decrease in office supplies
and related expenses, partially offset by an increase in amortization of low income housing partnerships.
Included in the $7.5 million of other non-interest expense for fiscal year 2014 was $2.4 million of amortization expense
associated with our investments in low income housing partnerships. During fiscal year 2014, the average balance of our
investments in low income housing partnerships was $38.7 million. The Company deducted $3.6 million of tax credits
related to its investment in low income housing partnerships for fiscal year 2014. This amount reduced the fiscal year 2014
effective tax rate by 3.1%.
The Company's efficiency ratio was 43.72% for fiscal year 2014 compared to 48.13% for fiscal year 2013. The change in the
efficiency ratio was due primarily to a decrease in total non-interest expense.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense was $37.5 million for fiscal year 2014 compared to $36.2 million for fiscal year 2013. The $1.3 million
increase between periods was due largely to an increase in pre-tax income, partially offset by a decrease in the effective tax
rate. The effective tax rate for fiscal year 2014 was 32.5% compared to 34.3% for fiscal year 2013. The decrease in the
effective tax rate between periods was due largely to a lower amount of nondeductible ESOP-related expenses due to the final
ESOP allocation on September 30, 2013, as discussed in the non-interest expense section above, along with higher tax credits
related to our investments in low income housing partnerships.
69 Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity refers to our ability to generate sufficient cash to fund ongoing operations, to repay maturing certificates of deposit
and other deposit withdrawals, to repay maturing borrowings, and to fund loan commitments. Liquidity management is both
a daily and long-term function of our business management. The Company's most available liquid assets are represented by
cash and cash equivalents, AFS securities, and short-term investment securities. The Bank's primary sources of funds are
deposits, FHLB borrowings, repurchase agreements, repayments and maturities of outstanding loans and MBS and other
short-term investments, and funds provided by operations. The Bank's term borrowings primarily have been used to invest in
debentures and MBS in an effort to manage the Bank's interest rate risk with the intent to improve the earnings of the Bank
while maintaining capital ratios in excess of regulatory standards for well-capitalized financial institutions. In addition, the
Bank's focus on managing risk has provided additional liquidity capacity by maintaining a balance of MBS and investment
securities available as collateral for borrowings.
We generally intend to manage cash reserves sufficient to meet short-term liquidity needs, which are routinely forecasted for
10, 30, and 365 days. Additionally, on a monthly basis, we perform a liquidity stress test in accordance with the Interagency
Policy Statement on Funding and Liquidity Risk Management. The liquidity stress test incorporates both short-term and
long-term liquidity scenarios in order to identify and to quantify liquidity risk. Management also continuously monitors key
liquidity statistics related to items such as wholesale funding gaps, borrowings capacity, and available unpledged collateral,
as well as various liquidity ratios.
In the event short-term liquidity needs exceed available cash, the Bank has access to a line of credit at FHLB and the Federal
Reserve Bank discount window. When the daily leverage strategy is in place, the Bank maintains the resulting excess cash
reserves from the borrowings on the FHLB line of credit at the Federal Reserve Bank, which can be used to meet any short-
term liquidity needs. Per FHLB's lending guidelines, total FHLB borrowings cannot exceed 40% of regulatory total assets
without the pre-approval of FHLB senior management. In July 2014, the president of FHLB approved an increase in the
Bank's borrowing limit to 55% of Bank Call Report total assets for one year and then renewed that approval in July 2015
through July 2016. The amount that can be borrowed from the Federal Reserve Bank discount window is based upon the fair
value of securities pledged as collateral and certain other characteristics of those securities, and is used only when other
sources of short-term liquidity are unavailable. Management tests the Bank's access to the Federal Reserve Bank discount
window annually with a nominal, overnight borrowing.
If management observes a trend in the amount and frequency of line of credit utilization that is not in conjunction with a
planned strategy, such as the daily leverage strategy, the Bank will likely utilize long-term wholesale borrowing sources such
as FHLB advances and/or repurchase agreements to provide permanent fixed-rate funding. The maturities of these
borrowings are generally staggered in order to mitigate the risk of a highly negative cash flow position at maturity.
The amount of FHLB advances outstanding at September 30, 2015 was $2.58 billion, of which $400.0 million was scheduled
to mature in the next 12 months. Additionally, in conjunction with the daily leverage strategy, there was $700.0 million on
the FHLB line of credit at September 30, 2015. All FHLB borrowings are secured by certain qualifying loans pursuant to a
blanket collateral agreement with FHLB along with certain securities. The Bank pledged securities with an estimated fair
value of $218.2 million as collateral for FHLB borrowings at September 30, 2015. At September 30, 2015, the Bank's ratio
of the par value of FHLB borrowings to Call Report total assets was 33%. When the full daily leverage strategy is in place,
FHLB borrowings are in excess of 40% of the Bank's Call Report total assets, and are expected to be in excess of 40% as
long as the Bank continues its daily leverage strategy and FHLB senior management continues to approve the Bank's
borrowing limit being in excess of 40% of Call Report total assets. All or a portion of the borrowings against the FHLB line
of credit in conjunction with the daily leverage strategy could be repaid at any point in time while the strategy is in effect, if
necessary.
At September 30, 2015, the Bank had repurchase agreements of $200.0 million, or approximately 2% of total assets, none of
which was scheduled to mature in the next 12 months. The Bank may enter into additional repurchase agreements as
management deems appropriate, not to exceed 15% of total assets, and subject to a total borrowings limit of 55% as discussed
below. The Bank has pledged securities with an estimated fair value of $225.8 million as collateral for repurchase
agreements as of September 30, 2015. The securities pledged for the repurchase agreements will be delivered back to the
Bank when the repurchase agreements mature.

The Bank's internal policy limits total borrowings to 55% of total assets. At September 30, 2015, the Bank had term
borrowings, at par, of $2.78 billion and $700.0 million on our FHLB line of credit, for a total of $3.48 billion, or
approximately 35% of total assets. Additionally, the Bank could utilize the repayment and maturity of outstanding loans,
MBS, and other investments for liquidity needs rather than reinvesting such funds into the related portfolios. At September
30, 2015, the Bank had $1.11 billion of securities that were eligible but unused as collateral for borrowing or other liquidity
needs.
The Bank has access to and utilizes other sources of funds for liquidity purposes, such as brokered and public unit deposits.
As of September 30, 2015, the Bank's policy allowed for combined brokered and public unit deposits up to 15% of total
deposits. At September 30, 2015, the Bank had public unit deposits totaling $312.4 million, or approximately 6% of total
deposits, and no brokered deposits. Management continuously monitors the wholesale deposit market for opportunities to
obtain funds at attractive rates. The Bank had pledged securities with an estimated fair value of $347.5 million as collateral
for public unit deposits at September 30, 2015. The securities pledged as collateral for public unit deposits are held under
joint custody by FHLB and generally will be released upon deposit maturity.
At September 30, 2015, $1.09 billion of the Bank's $2.63 billion of certificates of deposit was scheduled to mature within one
year. Included in the $1.09 billion was $240.9 million of public unit deposits. Based on our deposit retention experience and
our current pricing strategy, we anticipate the majority of the maturing retail certificates of deposit will renew or transfer to
other deposit products at the prevailing rate, although no assurance can be given in this regard. We also anticipate the
majority of the $240.9 million of maturing public unit deposits will be replaced with similar wholesale funding products.
While scheduled payments from the amortization of loans and MBS and payments on short-term investments are relatively
predictable sources of funds, deposit flows, prepayments on loans and MBS, and calls of investment securities are greatly
influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions, and competition, and are less predictable sources of funds. To the
extent possible, the Bank manages the cash flows of its loan and deposit portfolios by the rates it offers customers.
At September 30, 2015, cash and cash equivalents totaled $772.6 million, a decrease of $38.2 million from September 30,
2014. Included in cash and cash equivalents were $667.1 million and $704.1 million at September 30, 2015 and 2014,
respectively, that related to the daily leverage strategy. Excluding the daily leverage strategy, cash and cash equivalents were
$105.6 million and $106.3 million at September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
During fiscal year 2015, cash flows not reinvested into the securities portfolio were used primarily to fund loan growth. The
FHLB stock cash flow activity during fiscal year 2015 was primarily related to the daily leverage strategy activity. See
additional discussion regarding loan activity in "Financial Condition – Loans Receivable." See additional discussion
regarding the securities portfolio activity in "Financial Condition - Securities." See loans receivable, securities, and FHLB
stock cash flow information in "Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data – Consolidated Statements of
Cash Flows."
At September 30, 2015, Capitol Federal Financial, Inc., at the holding company level, had $96.2 million on deposit at the
Bank. During the year ended September 30, 2015, the Company paid $114.2 million in cash dividends and repurchased
3,875,581 shares at a total cost of $46.4 million. See additional discussion regarding dividends and stock repurchases in
"Financial Condition - Stockholders' Equity."
As of September 30, 2015, the Bank had $6.8 million of agreements outstanding in connection with the remodeling of the
Bank’s Kansas City market area operations center. The project scope includes replacement of all mechanical and electrical
systems, interior finishes, and exterior building components. The completed project will result in a more energy efficient
building which is expected to lower our utility and maintenance expenses. There may be additional agreements and expenses
related to the project through late fiscal year 2016, which is when the project is expected to be completed. Costs related
to the project will be capitalized and depreciated according to the estimated useful life of the assets as they are placed in
service.

Limitations on Dividends and Other Capital Distributions
OCC regulations impose restrictions on savings institutions with respect to their ability to make distributions of capital,
which include dividends, stock redemptions or repurchases, cash-out mergers and other transactions charged to the capital
account. Generally, savings institutions may make capital distributions during any calendar year equal to earnings of the
previous two calendar years and current year-to-date earnings under the FRB and OCC safe harbor regulations. It is
generally required that the Bank remain well capitalized after a proposed distribution; however, an institution deemed to be in
need of more than normal supervision by the OCC may have its capital distribution authority restricted. A savings institution
that is a subsidiary of a savings and loan holding company, such as the Company, that proposes to make a capital distribution
must submit written notice to the OCC and FRB 30 days prior to such distribution. The OCC and FRB may object to the
distribution during that 30-day period based on safety and soundness or other concerns. Savings institutions that desire to
make a larger capital distribution, are under special restrictions, or are not, or would not be, well capitalized following a
proposed capital distribution, however, must obtain regulatory non-objection prior to making such a distribution. So long as
the Bank continues to remain well capitalized after each capital distribution and operates in a safe and sound manner, it is
management's belief that the OCC and FRB will continue to allow the Bank to distribute its net income to the Company,
although no assurance can be given in this regard.
The long-term ability of the Company to pay dividends to its stockholders is based primarily upon the ability of the Bank to
make capital distributions to the Company. So long as the Bank continues to remain "well capitalized" after each capital
distribution and operates in a safe and sound manner, it is management's belief that the OCC and FRB will continue to allow
the Bank to distribute its earnings to the Company, although no assurance can be given in this regard.
The Company paid cash dividends of $114.2 million during the year ended September 30, 2015. Dividend payments depend
upon a number of factors including the Company's financial condition and results of operations, regulatory capital
requirements, regulatory limitations on the Bank's ability to make capital distributions to the Company, and the amount of
cash at the holding company level.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements, Commitments and Contractual Obligations
The Company, in the normal course of business, makes commitments to buy or sell assets or to incur or fund liabilities.
Commitments may include, but are not limited to:
•
•
•
•
•
the origination, purchase, participation, or sale of loans;
the purchase or sale of investment securities and MBS;
extensions of credit on home equity loans, construction loans, and commercial loans;
terms and conditions of operating leases; and
funding withdrawals of deposit accounts at maturity.

Excluded from the table above are immaterial amounts of income tax liabilities related to uncertain income tax positions.
The amounts are excluded as management is unable to estimate the period of cash settlement as it is contingent on the statute
of limitations expiring without examination by the respective taxing authority.
A percentage of commitments to originate and purchase/participate in loans are expected to expire unfunded; therefore, the
amounts reflected in the table above are not necessarily indicative of future liquidity requirements. Additionally, the Bank is
not obligated to honor commitments to fund unused home equity lines of credit if a customer is delinquent or otherwise in
violation of the loan agreement.
We anticipate we will continue to have sufficient funds, through repayments and maturities of loans and securities, deposits
and borrowings, to meet our current commitments.
We had no material off-balance sheet arrangements as of September 30, 2015.
74 Contingencies
In the normal course of business, the Company and its subsidiary are named defendants in various lawsuits and counter
claims. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, none of the currently pending suits are expected
to have a materially adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements for the year ended September 30,

Consistent with our goal to operate a sound and profitable financial organization, we actively seek to maintain a "well-
capitalized" status for the Bank in accordance with regulatory standards. As of September 30, 2015, the Bank and the
Company exceeded all regulatory capital requirements. The following table presents the regulatory capital ratios of the Bank
and the Company at September 30, 2015.

75 Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk
Asset and Liability Management and Market Risk
The risk associated with changes in interest rates on the earnings of the Bank and the market value of its financial assets and
liabilities is known as interest rate risk. Interest rate risk is our most significant market risk, and our adaptation to changes in
interest rates is known as interest rate risk management. The rates of interest the Bank earns on its assets and pays on its
liabilities are generally established contractually for a period of time. Fluctuations in interest rates have a significant impact
not only upon our net income, but also upon the cash flows and market values of our assets and liabilities. Our results of
operations, like those of other financial institutions, are impacted by changes in interest rates and the interest rate sensitivity
of our interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The analysis presented in the tables within this section reflect
the level of market risk at the Bank.
The general objective of our interest rate risk management program is to determine and manage an appropriate level of
interest rate risk while maximizing net interest income in a manner consistent with our policy to manage, to the extent
practicable, the exposure of net interest income to changes in market interest rates. The Board of Directors and ALCO
regularly reviews the interest rate risk exposure of the Bank by forecasting the impact of hypothetical, alternative interest rate
environments on net interest income and the market value of portfolio equity ("MVPE") at various dates. The MVPE is
defined as the net of the present value of cash flows from existing assets, liabilities, and off-balance sheet instruments. The
present values are determined based upon market conditions as of the date of the analysis, as well as in alternative interest
rate environments, providing the MVPE under those interest rate environments. Net interest income is projected in the same
interest rate environments with both a static balance sheet and with management strategies considered. The MVPE and net
interest income analysis are also conducted to estimate our sensitivity to rates for future time horizons based upon market
conditions as of the date of the analysis. In addition to the interest rate environments presented below, management also
reviews the impact of non-parallel rate shock scenarios on a quarterly basis. These scenarios consist of flattening and
steepening the yield curve by changing short-term and long-term interest rates independent of each other, and simulating cash
flows and determining valuations as a result of these hypothetical changes in interest rates to identify rate environments that
pose the greatest risk to the Bank. This analysis helps management quantify the Bank's exposure to changes in the shape of
the yield curve.
The ability to maximize net interest income is dependent largely upon the achievement of a positive interest rate spread that
can be sustained despite fluctuations in prevailing interest rates. The asset and liability repricing gap is a measure of the
difference between the amount of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities which either reprice or mature within
a given period of time. The difference provides an indication of the extent to which an institution's interest rate spread will be
affected by changes in interest rates. A gap is considered positive when the amount of interest-earning assets exceeds the
amount of interest-bearing liabilities maturing or repricing during the same period. A gap is considered negative when the
amount of interest-bearing liabilities exceeds the amount of interest-earning assets maturing or repricing during the same
period. Generally, during a period of rising interest rates, a negative gap within shorter repricing periods adversely affects net
interest income, while a positive gap within shorter repricing periods positively affects net interest income. During a period
of falling interest rates, the opposite would generally be true.
The shape of the yield curve also has an impact on our net interest income and, therefore, the Bank's net interest margin.
Historically, the Bank has benefited from a steeper yield curve as the Bank's mortgage loans are generally priced off of long-
term rates while deposits are priced off of short-term rates. A steeper yield curve (one with a greater difference between
short-term rates and long-term rates) allows the Bank to receive a higher rate of interest on its new mortgage-related assets
relative to the rate paid for the funding of those assets, which generally results in a higher net interest margin. As the yield
curve flattens, the spread between rates received on assets and paid on liabilities becomes compressed, which generally leads
to a decrease in net interest margin.
General assumptions used by management to evaluate the sensitivity of our financial performance to changes in interest rates
presented in the tables below are utilized in, and set forth under, the gap table and related notes. Although management finds
these assumptions reasonable, the interest rate sensitivity of our assets and liabilities and the estimated effects of changes in
interest rates on our net interest income and MVPE indicated in the below tables could vary substantially if different
assumptions were used or actual experience differs from these assumptions. To illustrate this point, the projected cumulative
excess (deficiency) of interest-earning assets over interest-bearing liabilities within the next 12 months as a percent of total
assets ("one-year gap") is also provided for an up 200 basis point scenario, as of September 30, 2015.
76 Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk
Change in Net Interest Income. The Bank's net interest income projections are a reflection of the response to interest rates
of the assets and liabilities that are expected to mature or reprice over the next year. Repricing occurs as a result of cash
flows that are received or paid on assets or due on liabilities which would be replaced at then current market interest rates.
The Bank's borrowings and certificate of deposit portfolios have stated maturities and the cash flows related to the Bank's
liabilities do not generally fluctuate as a result of changes in interest rates. Cash flows from mortgage-related assets and
callable agency debentures can vary significantly as a result of changes in interest rates. As interest rates decrease, borrowers
have an economic incentive to lower their cost of debt by refinancing or endorsing their mortgage to a lower interest rate.
Similarly, agency debt issuers are more likely to exercise embedded call options for agency securities and issue new
securities at a lower interest rate.
For each period presented in the following table, the estimated percentage change in the Bank's net interest income based on
the indicated instantaneous, parallel and permanent change in interest rates is presented. The change in each interest rate
environment represents the difference between estimated net interest income in the 0 basis point interest rate environment
("base case," assumes the forward market and product interest rates implied by the yield curve are realized) and the estimated
net interest income in each alternative interest rate environment (assumes market and product interest rates have a parallel
shift in rates across all maturities by the indicated change in rates). Estimations of net interest income used in preparing the
table below were based upon the assumptions that the total composition of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing
liabilities do not change materially and that any repricing of assets or liabilities occurs at anticipated product and market rates
for the alternative rate environments as of the dates presented. The estimation of net interest income does not include any
projected gains or losses related to the sale of loans or securities, or income derived from non-interest income sources, but
does include the use of different prepayment assumptions in the alternative interest rate environments. It is important to
consider that estimated changes in net interest income are for a cumulative four-quarter period. These do not reflect the
earnings expectations of management.

(1) Assumes an instantaneous, permanent, and parallel change in interest rates at all maturities.
As interest rates rise, cash flows from the Bank's mortgage related assets and callable investment securities decrease to such a
point that liabilities are projected to reprice higher at a faster pace than assets and thus decrease the net interest income
projections. Lower interest rates at September 30, 2015 as compared to September 30, 2014 reduced the Bank's exposure to
higher interest rates.
Change in MVPE. Changes in the estimated market values of our financial assets and liabilities drive changes in estimates
of MVPE. The market value of an asset or liability reflects the present value of all the projected cash flows over its
remaining life, discounted at current market interest rates. As interest rates rise, generally the market value for both financial
assets and liabilities decrease. The opposite is generally true as interest rates fall. The MVPE represents the theoretical
market value of capital that is calculated by netting the market value of assets, liabilities, and off-balance sheet instruments.
If the market values of financial assets increase at a faster pace than the market values of financial liabilities, or if the market
values of financial liabilities decrease at a faster pace than the market values of financial assets, the MVPE will increase. The
market value of shorter term-to-maturity financial instruments is less sensitive to changes in interest rates than are longer
term-to-maturity financial instruments. Because of this, the market values of our certificates of deposit (which generally have
relatively shorter average lives) tend to display less sensitivity to changes in interest rates than do our mortgage-related assets
77 (which generally have relatively longer average lives). The average life expected on our mortgage-related assets varies under
different interest rate environments because borrowers have the ability to prepay their mortgage loans. Therefore, as interest
rates decrease, the WAL of mortgage-related assets decrease as well. As interest rates increase, the WAL would be expected
to increase, as well as increasing the sensitivity of these assets in higher rate environments.
The following table sets forth the estimated percentage change in the MVPE for each period presented based on the indicated
instantaneous, parallel and permanent change in interest rates. The change in each interest rate environment represents the
difference between the MVPE in the base case (assumes the forward market interest rates implied by the yield curve are
realized) and the MVPE in each alternative interest rate environment (assumes market interest rates have a parallel shift in
rates). The estimations of the MVPE used in preparing the table below were based upon the assumptions that the total
composition of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities do not change, that any repricing of assets or liabilities
occurs at current product or market rates for the alternative rate environments as of the dates presented, and that different
prepayment rates were used in each alternative interest rate environment. The estimated MVPE results from the valuation of
cash flows from financial assets and liabilities over the anticipated lives of each for each interest rate environment as of the
dates presented. The table below presents the effects of the changes in interest rates on our assets and liabilities as they
mature, repay, or reprice, as shown by the change in the MVPE for alternative interest rates.

As interest rates rise, the market value of the Bank's assets decreases at a faster pace that the market value of liabilities, which
results in a decrease to the Bank's MVPE. Lower interest rates at September 30, 2015 as compared to September 30, 2014
reduced the Bank's exposure to higher interest rates.
78 Gap Table. The gap table summarizes the anticipated maturities or repricing periods of the Bank's interest-earning assets and

The increase in the one-year gap at September 30, 2015 compared to September 30, 2014 was due mainly to lower interest
rates at September 30, 2015 than at September 30, 2014.

(1) ARM loans are included in the period in which the rate is next scheduled to adjust or in the period in which repayments are expected to occur, or
prepayments are expected to be received, prior to their next rate adjustment, rather than in the period in which the loans are due. Fixed-rate loans are
included in the periods in which they are scheduled to be repaid, based on scheduled amortization and prepayment assumptions. Balances are net of
deferred fees and exclude loans 90 or more days delinquent or in foreclosure.
(2) MBS reflect projected prepayments at amortized cost. Investment securities are presented based on contractual maturities, term to call dates or pre-
refunding dates as of September 30, 2015, at amortized cost.
(3) Although the Bank's checking, savings, and money market accounts are subject to immediate withdrawal, management considers a substantial amount
of these accounts to be core deposits having significantly longer effective maturities. The decay rates (the assumed rates at which the balances of
existing accounts decline) used on these accounts is based on assumptions developed from our actual experiences with these accounts. If all of the
Bank's checking, savings, and money market accounts had been assumed to be subject to repricing within one year, interest-bearing liabilities which
were estimated to mature or reprice within one year would have exceeded interest-earning assets with comparable characteristics by $906.3 million, for
a cumulative one-year gap of (9.2)% of total assets.
(4) Borrowings exclude deferred prepayment penalty costs.
79 The following table presents the weighted average yields/rates and WALs (in years), after applying prepayment, call
assumptions, and decay rates for our interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities as of the date presented. Yields
presented for interest-earning assets include the amortization of fees, costs, premiums and discounts which are considered
adjustments to the yield. The interest rate presented for term borrowings is the effective rate, which includes the impact of
the amortization of deferred prepayment penalties resulting from the prepayment of certain FHLB advances. The loan terms
presented for one- to four-family loans represent the contractual terms of the loan.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Capitol Federal Financial, Inc. and subsidiary
Topeka, Kansas
We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Capitol Federal Financial, Inc. and subsidiary (the
"Company") as of September 30, 2015, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013)
issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. The Company's management is
responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of
internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's Report on Internal Control over
Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting
based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United
States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective
internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an
understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and
evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other
procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company's
principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the company's
board of directors, management, and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial
reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the
maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of
the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company
are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide
reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the
company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of the inherent limitations of internal control over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or
improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may not be prevented or detected on
a timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting to
future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the
degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
81 In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of
September 30, 2015, based on the criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States),
the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended September 30, 2015 of the Company and our report dated
November 25, 2015 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

82 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Capitol Federal Financial, Inc. and subsidiary
Topeka, Kansas
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Capitol Federal Financial, Inc. and subsidiary (the
"Company") as of September 30, 2015 and 2014, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income,
stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended September 30, 2015. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United
States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the
amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe
that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Capitol
Federal Financial, Inc. and subsidiary as of September 30, 2015 and 2014, and the results of their operations and their cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended September 30, 2015, in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States),
the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2015, based on the criteria established in Internal
Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission,
and our report dated November 25, 2015 expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company's internal control over financial
reporting.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEARS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2015, 2014, and 2013
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Description of Business - Capitol Federal Financial, Inc. (the "Company") provides a full range of retail banking services
through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Capitol Federal Savings Bank (the "Bank"), a federal savings bank, which has 37
traditional and 10 in-store banking offices serving primarily the metropolitan areas of Topeka, Wichita, Lawrence,
Manhattan, Emporia and Salina, Kansas and portions of the metropolitan area of greater Kansas City. The Bank emphasizes
mortgage lending, primarily originating and purchasing one- to four-family loans, and providing personal retail financial
services. The Bank is subject to competition from other financial institutions and other companies that provide financial
services.
Basis of Presentation - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned
subsidiary, the Bank. The Bank has a wholly owned subsidiary, Capitol Funds, Inc. Capitol Funds, Inc. has a wholly owned
subsidiary, Capitol Federal Mortgage Reinsurance Company ("CFMRC"). All intercompany accounts and transactions have
been eliminated in consolidation. These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"), and require management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.
The Bank has an expense sharing agreement with the Company that covers the reimbursement of certain expenses that are
allocable to the Company. These expenses include compensation, rent for leased office space, and general overhead
expenses.
The Company, Bank, Capitol Funds, Inc. and CFMRC have a tax allocation agreement. The Bank is the paying agent to the
taxing authorities for the group for all periods presented. Each company is liable for taxes as if separate tax returns were filed
and reimburses the Bank for its pro rata share of the tax liability. If any entity has a tax benefit, the Bank reimburses the
entity for its tax benefit.
Cash and Cash Equivalents - Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and amounts due from banks. Regulations of
the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System ("FRB") require federally chartered savings banks to maintain cash
reserves against their transaction accounts. Required reserves must be maintained in the form of vault cash, an account at a
Federal Reserve Bank, or a pass-through account as defined by the FRB. The amount of interest-earning deposits held at the
Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City as of September 30, 2015 and 2014 was $762.0 million and $797.3 million,
respectively. The Bank is in compliance with the FRB requirements. For the years ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the
average daily balance of required reserves at the Federal Reserve Bank was $8.7 million and $9.1 million, respectively.
Securities - Securities include mortgage-backed and agency securities issued primarily by United States Government-
Sponsored Enterprises ("GSE"), including Federal National Mortgage Association, Federal Home Loan Mortgage
Corporation and the Federal Home Loan Banks, United States Government agencies, including Government National
Mortgage Association, and municipal bonds. Securities are classified as HTM, AFS, or trading based on management's
intention for holding the securities on the date of purchase. Generally, classifications are made in response to liquidity needs,
asset/liability management strategies, and the market interest rate environment at the time of purchase.
Securities that management has the intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as HTM and reported at amortized
cost. Such securities are adjusted for the amortization of premiums and discounts which are recognized as adjustments to
interest income over the life of the securities using the level-yield method.
Securities that management may sell if necessary for liquidity or asset management purposes are classified as AFS and
reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses reported as a component of AOCI within stockholders' equity, net of
deferred income taxes. The amortization of premiums and discounts are recognized as adjustments to interest income over
the life of the securities using the level-yield method. Gains or losses on the disposition of AFS securities are recognized
using the specific identification method. The Company primarily uses prices obtained from third party pricing services to
90 determine the fair value of securities. See additional discussion of fair value of AFS securities in "Note 12 – Fair Value of
Financial Instruments."
Securities that are purchased and held principally for resale in the near future are classified as trading securities and are
reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included in non-interest income in the consolidated statements of
income. During the fiscal years ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, neither the Company nor the Bank maintained a
trading securities portfolio.
Management monitors the securities portfolio for impairment on an ongoing basis and performs a formal review quarterly.
The process involves monitoring market events and other items that could impact issuers. The evaluation includes, but is not
limited to, such factors as: the nature of the investment, the length of time the security has had a fair value less than the
amortized cost basis, the cause(s) and severity of the loss, expectation of an anticipated recovery period, recent events
specific to the issuer or industry including the issuer's financial condition and current ability to make future payments in a
timely manner, external credit ratings and recent downgrades in such ratings, management's intent to sell and whether it is
more likely than not management would be required to sell prior to recovery for debt securities. Management determines
whether other-than-temporary losses should be recognized for impaired securities by assessing all known facts and
circumstances surrounding the securities. If management intends to sell an impaired security or if it is more likely than not
that management will be required to sell an impaired security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, an other-than-
temporary impairment has occurred and the difference between amortized cost and fair value will be recognized as a loss in
earnings and the security will be written down to fair value.
Loans Receivable - Loans receivable that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future are carried
at the amount of unpaid principal, net of ACL, undisbursed loan funds, unamortized premiums and discounts, and deferred
loan origination fees and costs. Net loan origination fees and costs, and premiums and discounts are amortized as yield
adjustments to interest income using the level-yield method. Interest on loans is credited to income as earned and accrued
only if deemed collectible.
The Bank's primary lending emphasis is the origination and purchase of one- to four-family loans and, to a lesser extent,
consumer loans secured by one- to four-family residential properties, resulting in a loan concentration in residential mortgage
loans. The Bank has a concentration of loans secured by residential property located in Kansas and Missouri.
Troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs") - For borrowers experiencing financial difficulties, the Bank may grant a concession
to the borrower. Generally, the Bank grants a short-term payment concession to borrowers who are experiencing a temporary
cash flow problem. The most frequently used concession is to reduce the monthly payment amount for a period of 6 to 12
months, often by requiring payments of only interest and escrow during this period, resulting in an extension of the maturity
date of the loan. For more severe situations requiring long-term solutions, the Bank also offers interest rate reductions to
currently-offered rates and the capitalization of delinquent interest and/or escrow resulting in an extension of the maturity
date of the loan. The Bank does not forgive principal or interest nor does it commit to lend additional funds, except for
situations generally involving the capitalization of delinquent interest and/or escrow not to exceed the original loan balance,
to these borrowers.
Endorsed loans are classified as TDRs when certain guidelines for soft credit scores and/or estimated loan-to-value ("LTV")
ratios are not met. These guidelines are intended to identify changes in the borrower's credit condition since origination,
signifying the borrower could be experiencing financial difficulties even though the borrower has not been delinquent on his/
her contractual loan payment in the previous 12 months.
The TDRs discussed above will be reported as such until paid-off, unless the loan has been restructured to an interest rate
equal to or greater than the rate the Bank was willing to accept at the time of the restructuring for a new loan with comparable
risk, and has performed under the new terms of the restructuring agreement for at least 12 consecutive months.
Additionally, loans that have been discharged under Chapter 7 bankruptcy proceedings where the borrower has not reaffirmed
the debt owed to the lender ("Chapter 7 loans") are reported as TDRs, regardless of their delinquency status, pursuant to
regulatory reporting requirements. These loans will be reported as TDRs until the borrower has made 48 consecutive
monthly loan payments after the Chapter 7 discharge date.
91 Delinquent loans - A loan is considered delinquent when payment has not been received within 30 days of its contractual due
date.
Nonaccrual loans - The accrual of income on loans is discontinued when interest or principal payments are 90 days in arrears
or for certain TDR loans that are required to be reported as such pursuant to regulatory reporting requirements. Loans on
which the accrual of income has been discontinued are designated as nonaccrual and outstanding interest previously credited
beyond 90 days delinquent is reversed. A nonaccrual loan is returned to accrual status once the contractual payments have
been made to bring the loan less than 90 days past due or, in the case of a TDR loan, the borrower has made the required
consecutive loan payments.
Impaired loans - A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Bank
will be unable to collect all amounts due, including principal and interest, according to the contractual terms of the loan
agreement. Interest income on impaired loans is recognized in the period collected unless the ultimate collection of principal
is considered doubtful. The following types of loans are reported as impaired loans: all nonaccrual loans, loans classified as
substandard, loans partially charged-off, Chapter 7 loans, and all TDRs except those that have been restructured to an interest
rate equal to or greater than the rate the Bank was willing to accept at the time of the restructuring for a new loan with
comparable risk, and has performed under the new terms of the restructuring agreement for at least 12 consecutive months.
The majority of the Bank's impaired loans are related to one- to four-family properties. Impaired loans related to one- to
four-family properties are individually evaluated for loss when the loan becomes 180 days delinquent or at any time
management has knowledge of the existence of a potential loss to ensure that the carrying value of the loan is not in excess of
the fair value of the collateral, less estimated selling costs.
Allowance for Credit Losses - The ACL represents management's best estimate of the amount of inherent losses in the loan
portfolio as of the balance sheet date. It involves a high degree of complexity and requires management to make difficult and
subjective judgments and assumptions about highly uncertain matters. Management's methodology for assessing the
appropriateness of the ACL consists of a formula analysis model, along with analyzing several other factors. The use of
different judgments and assumptions could cause reported results to differ significantly. Management maintains the ACL
through provisions for credit losses that are either charged or credited to income.
One- to four-family loans, including home equity loans, are individually evaluated for loss when the loan is generally 180
days delinquent and any losses are charged-off. Losses are based on new collateral values obtained through appraisals, less
estimated costs to sell. Anticipated private mortgage insurance proceeds are taken into consideration when calculating the
loss amount. An updated appraisal is requested, at a minimum, every 12 months thereafter if the loan is 180 days or more
delinquent or in foreclosure. If the Bank holds the first and second mortgage, both loans are combined when evaluating
whether there is a potential loss on the loan. For multi-family and commercial loans, losses are charged-off when the
collection of such amounts is determined to be unlikely. When a non-real estate secured loan, which includes consumer loans
- other, is 120 days delinquent, any identified losses are charged-off. Charge-offs for any loan type may also occur at any
time if the Bank has knowledge of the existence of a potential loss. Loans individually evaluated for loss are excluded from
the formula analysis model.
The primary risk characteristics inherent in the one- to four-family and consumer loan portfolios are a decline in economic
conditions, elevated levels of unemployment or underemployment, and declines in residential real estate values. Any one or
a combination of these events may adversely affect borrowers' ability to repay their loans, resulting in increased
delinquencies, non-performing assets, loan losses, and future loan loss provisions. Although the multi-family and
commercial loan portfolio is subject to the same risk of declines in economic conditions, the primary risk characteristics
inherent in this portfolio include the ability of the borrower to sustain sufficient cash flows from leases and to control
expenses to satisfy their contractual debt payments, and/or the ability to utilize personal and/or business resources to pay their
contractual debt payments if the cash flows are not sufficient. Additionally, if the Bank were to repossess the secured
collateral of a multi-family or commercial loan, the pool of potential buyers is typically limited more than that for a
residential property. This increases the risk that the Bank could hold the property for an extended period of time and/or
potentially be forced to sell at a discounted price, resulting in additional losses.
92 Each quarter, a formula analysis is prepared which segregates the loan portfolio into categories based on certain risk
characteristics. The categories include the following: one- to four-family loans; multi-family and commercial loans;
consumer home equity loans; and other consumer loans. Home equity loans with the same underlying collateral as a one- to
four-family loan are combined with the one- to four-family loan in the formula analysis model to calculate a combined LTV
ratio. The one- to four-family loan portfolio and related home equity loans are segregated into additional categories based on
the following risk characteristics: originated, correspondent purchased, or bulk purchased; interest payments (fixed-rate and
adjustable-rate); LTV ratios; borrower's credit scores; and certain geographic locations. The categories were derived by
management based on reviewing the historical performance of the one- to four-family loan portfolio and taking into
consideration current economic conditions, such as trends in residential real estate values in certain areas of the U.S. and
unemployment rates.
Quantitative loss factors are applied to each loan category in the formula analysis model based on the historical loss
experience for each respective loan category. Each quarter, management reviews the historical loss time periods and utilizes
the historical loss time periods believed to be the most reflective of the current economic conditions.
Qualitative loss factors are applied to each loan category in the formula analysis model. The qualitative loss factors that are
applied in the formula analysis model for one- to four-family and consumer loan portfolios are: unemployment rate trends;
collateral value trends; credit score trends; delinquent loan trends; and a factor based on management's judgment of certain
segments of the portfolio and related loan product mix. The qualitative loss factor applied in the formula analysis model for
multi-family and commercial loan portfolio is based on management's judgment due to the higher risk nature of these loans,
compared to one- to four-family loans. As loans are classified or become delinquent, the qualitative loss factors increase for
each respective loan category. The qualitative factors were derived by management based on a review of the historical
performance of the respective loan portfolios and consideration of current economic conditions and their likely impact to the
performance of the loan portfolio.
Management utilizes the formula analysis model, along with considering several other data elements when evaluating the
adequacy of the ACL. Such data elements include the trend and composition of delinquent loans, trends in foreclosed
property and short sale transactions and charge-off activity, the current status and trends of local and national economies
(particularly levels of unemployment), trends and current conditions in the real estate and housing markets, loan portfolio
growth and concentrations, and certain ACL ratios such as ACL to loans receivable, net and annualized historical losses to
ACL. Since the Bank's loan portfolio is primarily concentrated in one- to four-family real estate, management monitors
residential real estate market value trends in the Bank's local market areas and geographic sections of the U.S. by reference to
various industry and market reports, economic releases and surveys, and management's general and specific knowledge of the
real estate markets in which the Bank lends, in order to determine what impact, if any, such trends may have on the level of
ACL. Reviewing these qualitative factors assists management in evaluating the overall credit quality of the loan portfolio
and the reasonableness of the ACL on an ongoing basis, and whether changes need to be made to the Bank's ACL
methodology. Management seeks to apply the ACL methodology in a consistent manner; however, the methodology can be
modified in response to changing conditions. Although management believes the ACL was at a level adequate to absorb
inherent losses in the loan portfolio at September 30, 2015, the level of the ACL remains an estimate that is subject to
significant judgment and short-term changes.
Federal Home Loan Bank Stock - As a member of FHLB Topeka, the Bank is required to acquire and hold shares of FHLB
stock. The Bank's holding requirement varies based on the Bank's activities, primarily the Bank's outstanding borrowings,
with FHLB. FHLB stock is carried at cost and is considered a restricted asset because it cannot be pledged as collateral or
bought or sold on the open market and it also has certain redemption restrictions. Management conducts a quarterly
evaluation to determine if any FHLB stock impairment exists. The quarterly impairment evaluation focuses primarily on the
capital adequacy and liquidity of FHLB, while also considering the impact that legislative and regulatory developments may
have on FHLB. Stock and cash dividends received on FHLB stock are reflected as dividend income in the consolidated
statements of income.
93 Premises and Equipment - Land is carried at cost. Buildings, leasehold improvements, and furniture, fixtures and equipment
are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and leasehold amortization. Buildings, furniture, fixtures and equipment are
depreciated over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. Buildings have an estimated useful life of 39
years. Structural components of the buildings generally have an estimated life of 15 years. Furniture, fixtures and equipment
have an estimated useful life of three to seven years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of their
estimated useful lives or the term of the respective leases, which is generally three to 15 years. The costs for major
improvements and renovations are capitalized, while maintenance, repairs and minor improvements are charged to operating
expenses as incurred. Gains and losses on dispositions are recorded as non-interest income or non-interest expense as
incurred.
Income Taxes - The Company utilizes the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method,
deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the tax consequences of temporary differences between the
financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of existing assets and liabilities. Deferred income tax expense
(benefit) represents the change in deferred income tax assets and liabilities excluding the tax effects of the change in net
unrealized gain (loss) on AFS securities and changes in the market value of restricted stock between the grant date and
vesting date. Income tax related penalties and interest are included in income tax expense in the consolidated statements of
income.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in
which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of
a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Certain tax benefits attributable
to stock options and restricted stock are credited to additional paid-in capital. To the extent that management considers it
more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will not be recovered, a valuation allowance is recorded. All positive and
negative evidence is reviewed in determining how much of a valuation allowance is recognized on a quarterly basis.
Certain accounting literature prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement
recognition and measurement of an uncertain tax position taken, or expected to be taken, in a tax return. Interest and
penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits are recognized in income tax expense in the consolidated statements of income.
Accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits are included within the related tax liabilities line in the
consolidated balance sheet.
Employee Stock Ownership Plan - The funds borrowed by the ESOP from the Company to purchase the Company's common
stock are being repaid from dividends paid on unallocated ESOP shares and, if necessary, contributions by the Bank. The
shares pledged as collateral are reported as a reduction of stockholders' equity at cost. As ESOP shares are committed to be
released from collateral each quarter, the Company records compensation expense based on the average market price of the
Company's stock during the quarter. Additionally, the shares become outstanding for EPS computations once they are
committed to be released. The eligibility criteria for participation in the Company's ESOP is a minimum of one year of
service, at least age 21, and at least 1,000 hours of employment in each plan year.
Stock-based Compensation - The Company has share-based plans under which stock options and restricted stock awards
have been granted. Compensation expense is recognized over the service period of the share-based payment award. The
Company utilizes a fair-value-based measurement method in accounting for the share-based payment transactions with
employees, except for equity instruments held by the ESOP. The Company applies the modified prospective method in
which compensation cost is recognized over the service period for all awards granted.
Borrowed Funds - The Bank has entered into repurchase agreements, which are sales of securities under agreements to
repurchase, with approved counterparties. These agreements are recorded as financing transactions, and thereby reported as
liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet, as the Bank maintains effective control over the transferred securities and the
securities continue to be carried in the Bank's securities portfolio.
The Bank has obtained borrowings from FHLB in the form of advances and a line of credit. Total FHLB borrowings are
secured by certain qualifying loans pursuant to a blanket collateral agreement with FHLB and certain securities.
Additionally, the Bank is authorized to borrow from the Federal Reserve Bank's "discount window."
94 Segment Information - As a community-oriented financial institution, substantially all of the Bank's operations involve the
delivery of loan and deposit products to customers. Management makes operating decisions and assesses performance based
on an ongoing review of these community banking operations, which constitute the Company's only operating segment for
financial reporting purposes.
Low Income Housing Partnerships - As part of the Bank's community reinvestment initiatives, the Bank invests in
affordable housing limited partnerships ("low income housing partnerships") that make equity investments in affordable
housing properties. The Bank is a limited partner in each partnership in which it invests. Two of the Bank's officers are
involved in the operational management of the low income housing partnership investment group. A separate, unrelated third
party is the general partner. The Bank receives affordable housing tax credits and other tax benefits for these investments.
The Bank accounts for substantially all of its investments in these partnerships using the equity method of accounting.
The Bank's investment in the partnerships, which is included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets, was $41.8
million and $46.4 million at September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The Bank's obligations related to such investments,
which are primarily related to unfunded commitments and included in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the
consolidated balance sheets, were $14.6 million and $20.7 million at September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Expenses
associated with the Bank's investment in the partnerships are included in low income housing partnerships in the consolidated
statements of income. Affordable housing tax credits and other tax benefits, which are recognized as a component of income
tax expense in the consolidated statements of income, were $4.3 million, $3.6 million, and $2.7 million for fiscal years 2015,
2014, and 2013, respectively.
Earnings Per Share - Basic EPS is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average
number of shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other
contracts to issue common stock (such as stock options) were exercised or resulted in the issuance of common stock. These
potentially dilutive shares would then be included in the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period using
the treasury stock method. Shares issued and shares reacquired during any period are weighted for the portion of the period
that they were outstanding.
In computing both basic and diluted EPS, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding includes the ESOP
shares previously allocated to participants and shares committed to be released for allocation to participants and restricted
stock shares which have vested or have been allocated to participants. ESOP shares that have not been committed to be
released are excluded from the computation of basic and diluted EPS. Unvested restricted stock awards contain
nonforfeitable rights to dividends and are treated as participating securities in the computation of EPS pursuant to the two-
class method.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements - In January 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-01, Accounting for Investments in Qualified Affordable Housing Projects. The
ASU revised the conditions that an entity must meet to elect to use the effective yield method when accounting for qualified
affordable housing project investments. Current accounting guidance states that an entity that invests in a qualified
affordable housing project may elect to account for that investment using the effective yield method if all required conditions
are met. For those investments that are not accounted for using the effective yield method, current accounting guidance
requires that the investments be accounted for under either the equity method or the cost method. Certain existing conditions
required to be met to use the effective yield method are restrictive and thus prevent many such investments from qualifying
for the use of the effective yield method. The ASU replaces the effective yield method with the proportional amortization
method and modifies the conditions that an entity must meet to be eligible to use a method other than the equity or cost
methods to account for qualified affordable housing project investments. If the modified conditions are met, the ASU permits
an entity to use the proportional amortization method to amortize the initial cost of the investment in proportion to the
amount of tax credits and other tax benefits received and recognize the net investment performance in the income statement
as a component of income tax expense. Additionally, the ASU requires new disclosures about all investments in qualified
affordable housing projects irrespective of the method used to account for the investments. ASU 2014-01 is effective for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2014, which was October 1, 2015 for the Company, and should be applied
retrospectively. The Company will continue to account for our affordable housing project investments under either the equity
method or the cost method when the ASU is adopted.
95 In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-04, Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer
Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure. The ASU clarifies when an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs, that is, when
a creditor should be considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a
consumer mortgage loan such that the loan receivable should be derecognized and the real estate property recognized. The
ASU also requires disclosure of both (1) the amount of foreclosed residential real estate property held by a creditor and (2)
the recorded investment in consumer mortgage loans collateralized by residential real estate property that are in the process
of foreclosure according to local requirements of the applicable jurisdiction. ASU 2014-04 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2014, which is October 1, 2015 for the Company, and can be applied using either a modified
retrospective transition method or a prospective transition method. The ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the
Company's consolidated financial statements.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The ASU clarifies principles for
recognizing revenue and provides a common revenue standard for GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards.
Additionally, the ASU provides implementation guidance on several topics and requires entities to disclose both quantitative
and qualitative information regarding contracts with customers. ASU 2014-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2016, which is October 1, 2017 for the Company, and can be applied using either a retrospective or
cumulative-effect transition method. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with
Customers, which deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-09 one year, making the ASU effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period, which is October 1, 2018 for the
Company. Early adoption is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The
Company has not yet completed its evaluation of ASU 2014-09.
In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-11, Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and
Disclosures. The ASU makes limited amendments to the current guidance on accounting for certain repurchase agreements.
The ASU also expands disclosure requirements for certain transfers of financial assets accounted for as sales or as secured
borrowings. The accounting changes in ASU 2014-11 are effective for the first quarterly period or fiscal year beginning after
December 15, 2014, which was January 1, 2015 for the Company, and should be applied using a cumulative-effect transition
method. The Company accounts for its repurchase agreements as secured borrowings; therefore, the adoption of the
accounting changes on January 1, 2015 did not have an impact on the Company's consolidated financial condition or results
of operations. The expanded disclosure requirements for ASU 2014-11 were effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2014, and for quarterly periods beginning after March 15, 2015, which was April 1, 2015 for the Company.
The expanded disclosures required by the adoption of the ASU are included in the Deposits and Borrowed Funds Note.
96 2. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Shares acquired by the ESOP are not considered in the basic average shares outstanding until the shares are committed for
allocation or vested to an employee's individual account. Unvested shares awarded pursuant to the Company's restricted
stock benefit plans are treated as participating securities in the computation of EPS pursuant to the two-class method as they
contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends. The two-class method is an earnings allocation that determines EPS for each class
of common stock and participating security.

The unrealized losses at September 30, 2015 and 2014 were primarily a result of an increase in market yields from the time
the securities were purchased. In general, as market yields rise, the fair value of securities will decrease; as market yields
fall, the fair value of securities will increase. Management generally views changes in fair value caused by changes in
interest rates as temporary; therefore, these securities have not been classified as other-than-temporarily impaired. The
impairment is also considered temporary because scheduled coupon payments have been made, it is anticipated that the entire
principal balance will be collected as scheduled, and management neither intends to sell the securities, nor is it more likely
than not that the Company will be required to sell the securities before the recovery of the remaining amortized cost amount,
which could be at maturity. As a result of the analysis, management has concluded that no other-than-temporary impairments
existed at September 30, 2015 or 2014. See "Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Securities" for
additional information regarding our impairment review and classification process for securities.
99 The amortized cost and estimated fair value of debt securities as of September 30, 2015, by contractual maturity, are shown
below. Actual principal repayments may differ from contractual maturities due to prepayment or early call privileges by the
issuer. In the case of MBS, borrowers on the underlying loans generally have the right to prepay their loans without
prepayment penalty. For this reason, MBS are not included in the maturity categories.

As of September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Bank serviced loans for others aggregating approximately $153.0 million and $195.0
million, respectively. Such loans are not included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Servicing loans for
others generally consists of collecting mortgage payments, maintaining escrow accounts, disbursing payments to investors
and foreclosure processing. Loan servicing income includes servicing fees withheld from investors and certain charges
collected from borrowers, such as late payment fees. The Bank held borrowers' escrow balances on loans serviced for others
of $2.9 million and $3.4 million as of September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Lending Practices and Underwriting Standards - Originating and purchasing one- to four-family loans is the Bank's primary
lending business, resulting in a loan concentration in residential first mortgage loans. The Bank purchases one- to four-
family loans, on a loan-by-loan basis, from a select group of correspondent lenders. The Bank also originates consumer
loans, commercial and multi-family real estate loans, and construction loans secured by residential, multi-family or
commercial real estate and participates in commercial and multi-family real estate and construction loans. As a result of our
one- to four-family lending activities, the Bank has a concentration of loans secured by real property located in Kansas and
Missouri.
One- to four-family loans - Full documentation to support an applicant's credit and income, and sufficient funds to cover all
applicable fees and reserves at closing, are required on all loans. Loans are underwritten according to the "ability to repay"
and "qualified mortgage" standards, as issued by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Properties securing one- to
four-family loans are appraised by either staff appraisers or fee appraisers, both of which are independent of the loan
origination function and approved by our Board of Directors.
101 The underwriting standards for loans purchased from correspondent and nationwide lenders are generally similar to the
Bank's internal underwriting standards. The underwriting of loans purchased from correspondent lenders on a loan-by-loan
basis is performed by the Bank's underwriters. For the tables within this Note, correspondent loans purchased on a loan-by-
loan basis are included with originated loans, and loans purchased in loan packages ("bulk loans") are reported as purchased
loans.
The Bank also originates construction-to-permanent loans secured by one- to four-family residential real estate. Construction
loans are obtained by homeowners who will occupy the property when construction is complete. Construction loans to
builders for speculative purposes are not permitted. All construction loans are manually underwritten using the Bank's
internal underwriting standards. Construction draw requests and the supporting documentation are reviewed and approved by
management. The Bank also performs regular documented inspections of the construction project to ensure the funds are
being used for the intended purpose and the project is being completed according to the plans and specifications provided.
Multi-family and commercial loans - The Bank's multi-family, commercial real estate, and related construction loans are
originated by the Bank or are in participation with a lead bank. These loans are granted based on the income producing
potential of the property and the financial strength of the borrower and/or guarantor. At the time of origination, LTV ratios on
multi-family, commercial real estate, and related construction loans generally cannot exceed 80% of the appraised value of
the property securing the loans and the minimum debt service coverage ratio is generally 1.25. The Bank generally requires
personal guarantees from the borrowers or the individuals that own the borrowing entity, which cover the entire outstanding
debt, in addition to the security property as collateral for these loans. Appraisals on properties securing these loans are
performed by independent state certified fee appraisers.
Consumer loans - The Bank offers a variety of secured consumer loans, including home equity loans and lines of credit,
home improvement loans, auto loans, and loans secured by savings deposits. The Bank also originates a very limited amount
of unsecured loans. The Bank does not originate any consumer loans on an indirect basis, such as contracts purchased from
retailers of goods or services which have extended credit to their customers. The majority of the consumer loan portfolio is
comprised of home equity lines of credit for which the Bank also has the first mortgage or the home equity line of credit is in
the first lien position.
The underwriting standards for consumer loans include a determination of an applicant's payment history on other debts and
an assessment of an applicant's ability to meet existing obligations and payments on the proposed loan. Although
creditworthiness of an applicant is a primary consideration, the underwriting process also includes a comparison of the value
of the security in relation to the proposed loan amount.
Credit Quality Indicators - Based on the Bank's lending emphasis and underwriting standards, management has segmented
the loan portfolio into three segments: (1) one- to four-family loans; (2) consumer loans; and (3) multi-family and
commercial loans. The one- to four-family and consumer segments are further segmented into classes for purposes of
providing disaggregated information about the credit quality of the loan portfolio. The classes are: one- to four-family loans
- originated, one- to four-family loans - purchased, consumer loans - home equity, and consumer loans - other.
The Bank's primary credit quality indicators for the one- to four-family loan and consumer - home equity loan portfolios are
delinquency status, asset classifications, LTV ratios, and borrower credit scores. The Bank's primary credit quality indicators
for the multi-family and commercial loan and consumer - other loan portfolios are delinquency status and asset
classifications.
102 The following tables present the recorded investment, by class, in loans 30 to 89 days delinquent, loans 90 or more days
delinquent or in foreclosure, total delinquent loans, current loans, and total recorded investment at the dates presented. The
recorded investment in loans is defined as the unpaid principal balance of a loan (net of unadvanced funds related to loans in
process), less charge-offs and inclusive of unearned loan fees and deferred costs. At September 30, 2015 and 2014, all loans
90 or more days delinquent were on nonaccrual status.

103 In accordance with the Bank's asset classification policy, management regularly reviews the problem loans in the Bank's
portfolio to determine whether any loans require classification. Loan classifications are defined as follows:
•
•
Special mention - These loans are performing loans on which known information about the collateral pledged or
the possible credit problems of the borrower(s) have caused management to have doubts as to the ability of the
borrower(s) to comply with present loan repayment terms and which may result in the future inclusion of such
loans in the non-performing loan categories.
Substandard - A loan is considered substandard if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and
paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Substandard loans include those characterized
by the distinct possibility the Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
• Doubtful - Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with
the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make collection or liquidation in full on the basis of
currently existing facts and conditions and values highly questionable and improbable.
• Loss - Loans classified as loss are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as
assets on the books is not warranted.
The following table sets forth the recorded investment in loans classified as special mention or substandard, by class, at the
dates presented. Special mention and substandard loans are included in the formula analysis model if the loans are not
individually evaluated for loss. Loans classified as doubtful or loss are individually evaluated for loss. At the dates
presented, there were no loans classified as doubtful, and all loans classified as loss were fully charged-off.

The following table shows the weighted average credit score and weighted average LTV for originated and purchased one- to
four-family loans and originated consumer home equity loans at the dates presented. Borrower credit scores are intended to
provide an indication as to the likelihood that a borrower will repay their debts. Credit scores are updated at least
semiannually, with the last update in September 2015, from a nationally recognized consumer rating agency. The LTV ratios
provide an estimate of the extent to which the Bank may incur a loss on any given loan that may go into foreclosure. The
LTV ratios were based on the current loan balance and either the lesser of the purchase price or original appraisal, or the most
recent Bank appraisal, if available. In most cases, the most recent appraisal was obtained at the time of origination.

The Bank has entered into non-cancelable operating lease agreements with respect to banking premises and equipment. It is
expected that many agreements will be renewed at expiration in the normal course of business. Rental expense was $1.1
million, $1.1 million, and $1.2 million for the years ended September 30, 2015, 2014, and 2013, respectively.
As of September 30, 2015, future minimum rental commitments, rounded to the nearest thousand, required under operating
leases that have initial or remaining non-cancelable lease terms in excess of one year were as follows:

6. DEPOSITS and BORROWED FUNDS
Deposits - Noninterest-bearing deposits totaled $188.0 million and $167.0 million as of September 30, 2015 and 2014,
respectively. Certificates of deposit with a minimum denomination of $250 thousand were $490.1 million and $402.1 million
as of September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Deposits in excess of $250 thousand may not be fully insured by the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
FHLB Borrowings - FHLB borrowings at September 30, 2015 consisted of $2.57 billion in fixed-rate FHLB advances and
$700.0 million against the variable-rate FHLB line of credit. The line of credit is set to expire on November 18, 2016, at
which time it is expected to be renewed automatically by FHLB for a one year period. FHLB borrowings at September 30,
2014 consisted of $2.57 billion in fixed-rate FHLB advances and $800.0 million against the variable-rate FHLB line of
credit.
The Bank implemented a leverage strategy ("daily leverage strategy"), beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2014, to
increase earnings. The daily leverage strategy involves borrowing up to $2.10 billion against the Bank's FHLB line of credit
with some or all of the balance being paid down at each quarter end. The proceeds of the borrowings, net of the required
FHLB stock holdings, is deposited at the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City.
110 FHLB advances at September 30, 2015 and 2014 were comprised of the following:
Fixed-rate FHLB advances

(1) The effective interest rate includes the net impact of deferred amounts related to certain FHLB advances.
During fiscal year 2015, the Bank prepaid $325.0 million of fixed-rate FHLB advances with a weighted average contractual
interest rate of 2.61% and a weighted average remaining term to maturity of approximately four months. The prepaid FHLB
advances were replaced with $325.0 million of fixed-rate FHLB advances with a weighted average contractual interest rate of
1.66% and a weighted average term of 53 months. The Bank paid $3.4 million in prepayment penalties to FHLB as a result
of prepaying the FHLB advances. The present value of the cash flows under the terms of the new FHLB advances was not
more than 10% different from the present value of the cash flow under the terms of the prepaid FHLB advances (including
the prepayment penalties) and there were no embedded conversion options in the prepaid advances or in the new FHLB
advances. The prepayment penalties effectively increased the weighted average interest rate on the new advances 42 basis
points at the time of the transactions. The deferred prepayment penalties are being recognized in interest expense over the
lives of the new FHLB advances.
FHLB borrowings are secured by certain qualifying loans pursuant to a blanket collateral agreement with FHLB and certain
securities. Per FHLB's lending guidelines, total FHLB borrowings cannot exceed 40% of regulatory total assets without the
pre-approval of FHLB senior management. In July 2014, the president of FHLB approved an increase in the Bank's
borrowing limit to 55% of Bank Call Report total assets for one year and then renewed that approval in July 2015 through
July 2016. At September 30, 2015, the ratio of the par value of the Bank's FHLB borrowings to the Bank's Call Report total
assets was 33%. During fiscal year 2015, the Bank's FHLB borrowings to the Bank's Call Report total assets was in excess
of 40% due to the daily leverage strategy.
Repurchase Agreements - At September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company had repurchase agreements outstanding in the
amounts of $200.0 million and $220.0 million, with weighted average contractual rates of 2.94% and 3.08%, respectively.
All of the Company's repurchase agreements at September 30, 2015 and 2014 were fixed-rate. See the Securities Note for
information regarding the amount of securities pledged as collateral in conjunction with repurchase agreements. Securities
are delivered to the party with whom each transaction is executed and the party agrees to resell the same securities to the
Bank at the maturity of the agreement. The Bank retains the right to substitute similar or like securities throughout the terms
of the agreements. The repurchase agreements and collateral are subject to valuation at current market levels and the Bank
may ask for the return of excess collateral or be required to post additional collateral due to changes in the market values of
these items. The Bank may also be required to post additional collateral as a result of principal payments received on the
securities pledged.

The Company assesses the available positive and negative evidence surrounding the recoverability of its deferred tax assets
and applies its judgment in estimating the amount of valuation allowance necessary under the circumstances. At both
September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company had a valuation allowance of $1.8 million related to the net operating losses
generated by the Company's consolidated Kansas corporate income tax return. The companies included in the consolidated
Kansas corporate income tax return are the holding company and Capitol Funds, Inc., as the Bank files a Kansas privilege tax
return. Based on the nature of the operations of the holding company and Capitol Funds, Inc., management believes there
will not be sufficient taxable income to fully utilize the deferred tax assets noted above; therefore, a valuation allowance has
been recorded for the related amounts at September 30, 2015 and 2014.
113 Accounting Standard Codification ("ASC") 740 Income Taxes prescribes a process by which a tax position taken, or expected
to be taken, on an income tax return is determined based upon the technical merits of the position, along with whether the tax
position meets a more-likely-than-not-recognition threshold, to determine the amount, if any, of unrecognized tax benefits to
recognize in the financial statements. Estimated penalties and interest related to unrecognized tax benefits are included in
income tax expense in the consolidated statements of income. For the years ended September 30, 2015, 2014, and 2013, the
Company's unrecognized tax benefits, estimated penalties and interest, and related activities were insignificant. The
Company does not anticipate the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits to significantly change within the next 12 months.
The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and the state of Kansas, as well as other states where it
has either established nexus under an economic nexus theory or has exceeded enumerated nexus thresholds based on the
amount of interest income derived from sources within a given state. In many cases, uncertain tax positions are related to tax
years that remain subject to examination by the relevant taxing authorities. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer
subject to U.S. federal and state examinations by tax authorities for fiscal years before 2012.
8. ESOP
The ESOP trust acquired 3,024,574 shares (6,846,728 shares post-corporate reorganization) of common stock in the
Company's initial public offering and 4,726,000 shares of common stock in the Company's corporate reorganization in
December of 2010. Both acquisitions of common stock were made with proceeds from loans from the Company. The loans
are secured by shares of the Company's stock purchased in each offering. The Bank has agreed to make cash contributions to
the ESOP trust on an annual basis sufficient to enable the ESOP trust to make the required annual loan payments to the
Company on September 30 of each year. The loan for the shares acquired in the initial public offering matured on
September 30, 2013. The loan for the shares acquired in the corporate reorganization matures on September 30, 2040.
As annual loan payments are made on September 30, shares are released from collateral and allocated to qualified employees
based on the proportion of their qualifying compensation to total qualifying compensation. On September 30, 2015, 165,198
shares were released from collateral. On September 30, 2016, 165,198 shares will be released from collateral. As ESOP
shares are committed to be released from collateral, the Company records compensation expense. Dividends on unallocated
ESOP shares are applied to the debt service payments of the loan secured by the unallocated shares. Dividends on
unallocated ESOP shares in excess of the debt service payment are recorded as compensation expense and distributed to
participants or participants' ESOP accounts. Compensation expense related to the ESOP was $3.0 million for the year ended
September 30, 2015, $3.8 million for the year ended September 30, 2014, and $9.7 million for the year ended September 30,
2013. Of these amounts, $384 thousand, $362 thousand, and $3.7 million related to the difference between the market price
of the Company's stock when the shares were acquired by the ESOP trust and the average market price of the Company's
stock during the years ended September 30, 2015, 2014, and 2013, respectively. The amount included in compensation
expense for dividends on unallocated ESOP shares in excess of the debt service payments was $952 thousand, $1.7 million,
and $3.0 million for the years ended September 30, 2015, 2014, and 2013, respectively, which was related to the loan for the
shares acquired in the corporate reorganization.
Shares may be withdrawn from the ESOP trust due to retirement, termination, or death of the participant. Additionally, a
participant may begin to diversify at least 25% of their ESOP shares at age 50. The following is a summary of shares held in
the ESOP trust as of September 30, 2015 and 2014:

114 9. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company has a Stock Option Plan, a Restricted Stock Plan, and an Equity Incentive Plan, all of which are considered
share-based plans. The Stock Option Plan and Restricted Stock Plan expired in April 2015. No additional grants can be
made from these two plans; however outstanding grants continue until they are individually vested, forfeited or expire. The
objectives of the Equity Incentive Plan are to provide additional compensation to certain officers, directors and key
employees by facilitating their acquisition of stock interest in the Company and enable the Company to retain personnel of
experience and ability in key positions of responsibility.
Stock Option Plans – There are currently 737,417 shares outstanding as a result of grants awarded from the Stock Option
Plan. The Equity Incentive Plan had 5,907,500 shares originally eligible to be granted as stock options and, as of September
30, 2015, the Company had 4,244,900 shares still available for future grants of stock options under this plan. This plan will
expire in January 2027 and no additional grants may be made after expiration, but outstanding grants continue until they are
individually vested, forfeited, or expire.
The Company may issue incentive and nonqualified stock options under the Equity Incentive Plan. The Company may also
award stock appreciation rights, although no stock appreciation rights have been awarded to date. The incentive stock
options expire no later than 10 years from the date of grant, and the nonqualified stock options expire no later than 15 years
from the date of grant. The vesting period of the options under the Equity Incentive Plan generally has ranged from three to
five years. The option price cannot be less than the market value at the date of the grant as defined by each plan. The fair
value of stock option grants is estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.
At September 30, 2015, the Company had 2,338,017 options outstanding with a weighted average exercise price of $12.97
per option and a weighted average contractual life of 6.9 years, and 1,814,617 options exercisable with a weighted average
exercise price of $13.26 per option and a weighted average contractual life of 6.5 years. The exercise price may be paid in
cash, shares of common stock, or a combination of both. New shares are issued by the Company upon the exercise of stock
options.
Compensation expense attributable to stock option awards during the years ended September 30, 2015, 2014, and 2013
totaled $618 thousand, $633 thousand, and $792 thousand, respectively. The fair value of stock options vested during the
years ended September 30, 2015, 2014, and 2013 was $615 thousand, $646 thousand, and $689 thousand, respectively. As of
September 30, 2015, the total future compensation cost related to non-vested stock options not yet recognized in the
consolidated statements of income was $430 thousand, net of estimated forfeitures, and the weighted average period over
which these awards are expected to be recognized was 1.7 years.
Restricted Stock Plans – The Equity Incentive Plan had 2,363,000 shares originally eligible to be granted as restricted stock
and, as of September 30, 2015, the Company had 1,815,150 shares available for future grants of restricted stock under this
plan. This plan will expire in January 2027 and no additional grants may be made after expiration, but outstanding grants
continue until they are individually vested or forfeited. The vesting period of the restricted stock awards under the Equity
Incentive Plan has generally ranged from three to five years. At September 30, 2015, the Company had 166,548 unvested
restricted stock shares with a weighted average grant date fair value of $11.99 per share.
Compensation expense is calculated based on the fair market value of the common stock at the date of the grant, as defined
by the plan, and is recognized over the vesting time period. Compensation expense attributable to restricted stock awards
during the years ended September 30, 2015, 2014, and 2013 totaled $1.5 million, $1.5 million, and $1.8 million, respectively.
The fair value of restricted stock that vested during the years ended September 30, 2015, 2014, and 2013 totaled $1.5 million,
$1.5 million, and $1.5 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2015 there was $1.0 million of unrecognized compensation
cost related to unvested restricted stock to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.7 years.

Commitments to originate loans are commitments to lend to a customer. Commitments to purchase/participate in loans
represent commitments to purchase loans from correspondent lenders on a loan-by-loan basis or participate in commercial
real estate loans with a lead bank. The Bank evaluates each borrower's creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis.
Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and one-to four-family loan commitments
may require the payment of a rate lock fee. Some of the commitments are expected to expire without being fully drawn
upon; therefore, the amount of total commitments disclosed in the table above does not necessarily represent future cash
requirements. As of September 30, 2015 and 2014, there were no significant loan-related commitments that met the
definition of derivatives or commitments to sell mortgage loans. As of September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Bank had approved
but unadvanced home equity lines of credit of $259.7 million and $260.4 million, respectively.
At September 30, 2015, the Bank had $6.8 million of agreements outstanding in connection with the remodeling of its Kansas
City market area operations center.
In the normal course of business, the Company and its subsidiary are named defendants in various lawsuits and
counterclaims. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, none of the currently pending suits are
expected to have a materially adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements for the year ended
September 30, 2015, or future periods.
11. REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS
The Bank and the Company are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking
agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and, possibly additional discretionary,
actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial statements. Under
capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and Bank must meet
specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company's and Bank's assets, liabilities, and certain off-
balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company's and Bank's capital amounts and
classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.
In July 2013, the federal banking agencies published final rules establishing a new comprehensive capital framework for U.S.
banking organizations. The rules implemented the "Basel III" regulatory capital reforms and changes required by the Dodd-
Frank Act. Basel III refers to various documents released by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision. The new rules
became effective for the Company and Bank in January 2015, with some rules being transitioned into full effectiveness over
two-to-four years. The new capital rules, among other things, introduced a new capital measure called "Common Equity
Tier 1" ("CET1"), increased the Tier 1 capital ratio requirement, changed the total assets utilized in the Tier 1 leverage ratio
calculation from total assets at quarter end to average total assets during the quarter, changed the risk-weightings of certain
assets for purposes of risk-based capital ratios, created an additional capital conservation buffer over the required capital
ratios, and changed what qualifies as capital for purposes of meeting the various capital requirements.
116 As of September 30, 2015, the most recent regulatory guidelines categorized the Bank as "well capitalized" under the
regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. The Bank and the Company must maintain minimum capital ratios as set
forth in the table below. There were no regulatory capital requirements for the Company at September 30, 2014.
Management believes, as of September 30, 2015, that the Bank and Company meet all capital adequacy requirements to
which they are subject and there were no conditions or events subsequent to September 30, 2015 that would change the
Bank's or Company's category.

Generally, savings institutions, such as the Bank, may make capital distributions during any calendar year equal to the
earnings of the previous two calendar years and current year-to-date earnings. It is generally required that the Bank remain
well capitalized before and after the proposed distribution. The Company's ability to pay dividends is dependent, in part,
upon its ability to obtain capital distributions from the Bank. So long as the Bank continues to remain "well capitalized" after
each capital distribution and operates in a safe and sound manner, it is management's belief that the regulators will continue
to allow the Bank to distribute its net income to the Company, although no assurance can be given in this regard.
In conjunction with the Company's corporate reorganization in December 2010, a "liquidation account" was established for
the benefit of certain depositors of the Bank in an amount equal to Capitol Federal Savings Bank MHC's ownership interest
in the retained earnings of Capitol Federal Financial as of June 30, 2010. As of September 30, 2015, the balance of this
liquidation account was $209.9 million. Under applicable federal banking regulations, neither the Company nor the Bank is
permitted to pay dividends on its capital stock to its stockholders if stockholders' equity would be reduced below the amount
of the liquidation account at that time.
117 12. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Fair Value Measurements – The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets
and to determine fair value disclosures in accordance with ASC 820 and ASC 825. The Company did not have any liabilities
that were measured at fair value at September 30, 2015 or 2014. The Company's AFS securities are recorded at fair value on
a recurring basis. Additionally, from time to time, the Company may be required to record at fair value other assets or
liabilities on a non-recurring basis, such as OREO and loans individually evaluated for impairment. These non-recurring fair
value adjustments involve the application of lower-of-cost-or-fair value accounting or write-downs of individual assets.
The Company groups its assets at fair value in three levels based on the markets in which the assets are traded and the
reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. These levels are:
• Level 1 - Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.
• Level 2 - Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for
identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which
all significant assumptions are observable in the market.
• Level 3 - Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use significant assumptions not observable in
the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect the Company's own estimates of assumptions that market
participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include the use of option pricing
models, discounted cash flow models, and similar techniques. The results cannot be determined with precision
and may not be realized in an actual sale or immediate settlement of the asset or liability.
The Company bases its fair values on the price that would be received from the sale of an asset in an orderly transaction
between market participants at the measurement date. The Company maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes
the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
The following is a description of valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
AFS Securities - The Company's AFS securities portfolio is carried at estimated fair value, with any unrealized gains and
losses, net of taxes, reported as AOCI in stockholders' equity. The majority of the securities within the AFS portfolio were
issued by GSEs. The Company primarily uses prices obtained from third party pricing services to determine the fair value of
its securities. On a quarterly basis, management corroborates a sample of prices obtained from the third party pricing service
for Level 2 securities by comparing them to an independent source. If the price provided by the independent source varies by
more than a predetermined percentage from the price received from the third party pricing service, then the variance is
researched by management. The Company did not have to adjust prices obtained from the third party pricing service when
determining the fair value of its securities during the years ended September 30, 2015 and 2014. The Company's major
security types, based on the nature and risks of the securities, are:
• GSE Debentures - Estimated fair values are based on a discounted cash flow method. Cash flows are
determined by taking any embedded options into consideration and are discounted using current market yields
for similar securities. (Level 2)
• MBS - Estimated fair values are based on a discounted cash flow method. Cash flows are determined based on
prepayment projections of the underlying mortgages and are discounted using current market yields for
benchmark securities. (Level 2)
• Municipal Bonds - Estimated fair values are based on a discounted cash flow method. Cash flows are
determined by taking any embedded options into consideration and are discounted using current market yields
for securities with similar credit profiles. (Level 2)
• Trust Preferred Securities - Estimated fair values are based on a discounted cash flow method. Cash flows are
determined by taking prepayment and underlying credit considerations into account. The discount rates are
derived from secondary trades and bid/offer prices. (Level 3)
118 The following tables provide the level of valuation assumption used to determine the carrying value of the Company's assets
measured at fair value on a recurring basis at the dates presented.

(1) The Company's Level 3 AFS securities had no activity during the year ended September 30, 2015, except for principal repayments of $400 thousand
and increases in net unrealized losses recognized in other comprehensive income. Increases in net unrealized losses included in other comprehensive
income for the year ended September 30, 2015 were $45 thousand.
(2) The Company's Level 3 AFS securities had no activity during the year ended September 30, 2014, except for principal repayments of $150 thousand
and reductions in net unrealized losses recognized in other comprehensive income. Reductions in net unrealized losses included in other
comprehensive income for the year ended September 30, 2014 were $16 thousand.
The following is a description of valuation methodologies used for significant assets measured at fair value on a non-
recurring basis.
Loans Receivable – The balance of loans individually evaluated for impairment at September 30, 2015 and 2014 was $22.8
million and $26.8 million, respectively. Substantially all of these loans were secured by residential real estate and were
individually evaluated to determine if the carrying value of the loan was in excess of the fair value of the collateral, less
estimated selling costs of 10%. When no impairment is indicated, the carrying amount is considered to approximate fair
value. Fair values were estimated through current appraisals or current Federal Housing Finance Agency ("FHFA") housing
price indices, which is a broad based measure of the movement of single-family house prices and is a weighted, repeat-sales
index. Management does not adjust or apply a discount to the appraised value or FHFA housing price indices, except for the
estimated sales costs noted above. The primary significant unobservable input for impaired loans with fair values estimated
using appraisals was the appraisal. Fair values of impaired loans cannot be determined with precision and may not be
realized in an actual sale or immediate settlement of the loan, and, as such are classified as Level 3. Based on this evaluation,
the Bank charged-off any loss amounts as of September 30, 2015 and 2014; therefore, there was no ACL related to these
loans.
119 OREO – OREO primarily represents real estate acquired as a result of foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure and is
carried at lower-of-cost or fair value. Fair value is estimated through current appraisals or listing prices, less estimated
selling costs of 10%. Management does not adjust or apply a discount to the appraised value, except for the estimated sales
costs noted above. Management does not adjust or apply a discount to the listing prices, except for the estimated sales costs
noted above. The primary significant unobservable input for OREO was the appraisal or listing price. Fair values of
foreclosed property cannot be determined with precision and may not be realized in an actual sale of the property, and, as
such are classified as Level 3. The fair value of OREO at September 30, 2015 and 2014 was $4.3 million and $4.1 million,
respectively.
The following tables provide the level of valuation assumptions used to determine the carrying value of the Company's assets
measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis at the dates presented.

Fair Value Disclosures – The Company determined estimated fair value amounts using available market information and
from a variety of valuation methodologies. However, considerable judgment is required to interpret market data to develop
the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented are not necessarily indicative of the amount the Company
could realize in a current market exchange. The use of different market assumptions and estimation methodologies may have
a material impact on the estimated fair value amounts. The fair value estimates presented herein were based on pertinent
information available to management as of the dates presented.
120 The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Company's financial instruments at September 30, 2015 and 2014 were

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of the financial instruments:
Cash and Cash Equivalents - The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents are considered to approximate their fair
value due to the nature of the financial assets. (Level 1)
HTM Securities - Estimated fair values of securities are based on one of three methods: (1) quoted market prices where
available; (2) quoted market prices for similar instruments if quoted market prices are not available; (3) unobservable data
that represents the Bank's assumptions about items that market participants would consider in determining fair value where
no market data is available. HTM securities are carried at amortized cost. (Level 2)
Loans Receivable - The fair value of one- to four-family loans and home equity loans are generally estimated using the
present value of expected future cash flows, assuming future prepayments and using discount factors determined by prices
obtained from securitization markets, less a discount for the cost of servicing and lack of liquidity. The estimated fair value of
the Bank's multi-family, commercial, and consumer loans are based on the expected future cash flows assuming future
prepayments and discount factors based on current offering rates. (Level 3)
FHLB stock - The carrying value and estimated fair value of FHLB stock equals cost, which is based on redemption at par
value. (Level 1)
Deposits - The estimated fair value of demand deposits, savings, and money market accounts is the amount payable on
demand at the reporting date. The estimated fair value of these deposits at September 30, 2015 and 2014 was $2.20 billion
and $2.12 billion, respectively. (Level 1) The fair value of certificates of deposit is estimated by discounting future cash
flows using current London Interbank Offered Rates ("LIBOR"). The estimated fair value of certificates of deposit at
September 30, 2015 and 2014 was $2.67 billion and $2.55 billion, respectively. (Level 2)
FHLB borrowings and Repurchase Agreements - The fair value of fixed-maturity borrowed funds is estimated by discounting
estimated future cash flows using current offer rates. (Level 2) The carrying value of FHLB line of credit is considered to
approximate its fair value due to the nature of the financial liability. (Level 1)
121 13. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
In preparing these financial statements, management has evaluated events occurring subsequent to September 30, 2015, for
potential recognition and disclosure. There have been no material events or transactions which would require adjustments to
the consolidated financial statements at September 30, 2015.

125 Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
None.
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the
Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended, the "Act") as of September 30, 2015. Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and
our Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of September 30, 2015, such disclosure controls and procedures were
effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Act is
accumulated and communicated to the Company's management (including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer) to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, and is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within
the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms.
Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial
reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the "Act").
The Company's internal control system is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Company's management
and Board of Directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements.
The Company's internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that pertain to the maintenance of
records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect transactions and dispositions of assets; provide reasonable
assurances that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP,
and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and the directors of
the Company; and provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or untimely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use,
or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.
All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems
determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial reporting. Further, because of
changes in conditions, the effectiveness of any system of internal control may vary over time. The design of any internal
control system also factors in resource constraints and consideration for the benefit of the control relative to the cost of
implementing the control. Because of these inherent limitations in any system of internal control, management cannot
provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud within the Company have been detected.
Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2015.
In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the
Treadway Commission in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013). Management has concluded that the Company
maintained an effective system of internal control over financial reporting based on these criteria as of September 30, 2015.
The Company's independent registered public accounting firm, Deloitte & Touche LLP, who audited the consolidated
financial statements included in the Company's annual report, has issued an audit report on the Company's internal control
over financial reporting as of September 30, 2015 and it is included in Item 8.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and
15d-15(f) under the Act) that occurred during the Company's quarter ended September 30, 2015 that have materially affected,
or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
