Item 4.02.     Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.

On July 27, 2010, management and the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of BCB Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) determined that the consolidated financial statements for quarters ended on June 30, 2009 and September 30, 2009 in the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q should be revised due to a correction of the accounting treatment applied retroactively by the Company to the costs related to the Company’s merger with Pamrapo Bancorp, Inc. on July 6, 2010 (the “Merger”).

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 (“SFAS 141”) established accounting rules related to business combinations.  In accordance with SFAS 141, the costs related to business combinations were previously considered, for accounting purposes, as part of the consideration paid by a company such that the costs were generally capitalized.  The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued new guidance related to SFAS 141 (which has now been codified as Accounting Standards Topic 805 (“ASC Topic 805”)) that impacts all business combinations that close on or after January 1, 2009.  ASC Topic 805 established new accounting principles and requirements for how a company recognizes costs related to a business combination.  In particular, ASC Topic 805 requires a company to recognize costs associated with a business combination during the period in which the costs are incurred.  The Company initially capitalized the costs related to the Merger during 2009.  However, the accounting treatment should have been in accordance with ASC Topic 805, and the costs should have been reported in operations.

In addition the Company is restating the consolidated financial statements in the Form 10-Qs for the quarters ended June 30, 2009 and September 30, 2009 to properly reflect the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) assessment expense attributable to 2009.

Accordingly, the Company intends to file as soon as practicable an amended Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A for the quarters ended on June 30, 2009 and September 30, 2009.  The Form 10-Q/As will reflect the new accounting guidance related to business combinations under ASC Topic 805 and the FDIC assessment expense attributable to the Company’s 2009 fiscal year.  Based on the Company’s analysis to date, set forth below is a summary of the impact on affected items included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements with a comparison to the information previously reported in the Company’s Form 10-Qs for the quarters ended June 30, 2009 and September 30, 2009, respectively, which will be reflected in such amended filings.
