Results of Operations
Net Earnings
During both the three and six month period ended June 30, 2001, the Company recorded record net earnings from operations due to the interest rate environment prevalent in 2001. The lower and falling interest rates experienced in 2001 have positively affected the Company’s mortgage banking operation. Along with the record revenues recorded by the mortgage banking operation, the expanding retail banking operation has continued to contribute to the Company’s profitability.
Three months
Net earnings for the three months ended June 30, 2001 were $16.3 million ($0.83 per share-diluted), a $7.7 million increase from the $8.6 million ($0.47 per share-diluted) reported in 2000. The increase resulted from a $32.5 million increase in other income, a $0.7 million increase in net interest income, which was offset by a $4.3 million increase in the provision for federal income taxes, a $1.6 million increase in the provision for losses, and a $19.6 million increase in operating expenses.
Six months
Net earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2001 were $27.4 million ( $1.40 per share-diluted ), a $15.0 million increase from the $12.4 million ( $0.67 per share-diluted ) reported in 2000. The increase resulted from a $55.4 million increase in other income, a $6.8 million increase in net interest income, which was offset by a $8.5 million increase in the provision for federal income taxes, a $6.1 million increase in the provision for losses, and a $32.8 million increase in net operating expenses.
Net Interest Income
Three months
Net interest income continues to rise and in this quarter increased $0.7 million, or 3.0%, to $24.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001. This level of interest income compares positively to the $23.4 million recorded for the 2000 period. Although there was only a small increase in net interest income, there was a $13.2 million increase in interest revenue. This revenue increase was offset by a $12.5 million increase in interest expense. In this period of lower interest rates the Company’s earning assets have prepaid and repriced at a faster pace than the liabilities used to fund these assets have repriced. So in this period that the Company increased the average earning asset base by over $1.0 billion, the Company only registered a small increase in net interest income. This repricing is shown in the decreased spread reported during the current period when compared to the second quarter of 2000. Assets as a whole repriced down 0.48% while its liability counterpart only repriced down 0.17% on a like period comparison. These decreases were reflected in the large decrease in the Company’s net interest margin of 0.27% to 1.69% for the three months ended June 30, 2001 from 1.96% for the comparable 2000 period.
Six months
Net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2001 had a more dramatic increase of $6.8 million, or 16.0%, to $49.4 million. This level of interest income compares to $42.6 million recorded during the 2000 period. This increase was due to a $1.4 billion increase in average interest-earning assets between the comparable periods, offset by the $1.4 billion increase in interest-bearing liabilities necessary to fund the growth and the decreasing spread discussed above. The Company’s interest rate spread also decreased for the six months ended June 30, 2001 from 1.80% for the 2000 period to 1.59%. These changes resulted in a net decrease in the Company’s net interest margin of 0.22% to 1.73% for the six months ended June 30, 2001 from 1.95% for the comparable 2000 period.

Provision for Losses
Three months
The provision for losses was increased to $6.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001 from $4.4 million during the same period in 2000. The provision for losses in each period included an increase in the allowance for losses of $2.0 million. Net charge-offs were an annualized 0.29% and 0.20% of average loans outstanding during the three months ended June 30, 2001 and June 30, 2000, respectively.
The allowance was increased in order to set loan loss reserves at a level that would offset the inherent risk associated with the Company’s loan portfolio. The loan portfolio increased 2.6% during the three month period ended June 30, 2001. The Company’s increase in its general reserves constituted an increase of 7.1% and somewhat offset the Company’s increase of 8.4% in non-performing assets during the second quarter. The allowance, which now totals $30.0 million, is 0.58% of loans and 45.79% of non-performing loans.
Six months
The provision for losses was increased to $12.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 from $5.9 million during the same period in 2000. The provision for losses in the 2001 period included a $5.0 million increase in the allowance for losses of whereas the 2000 period included a $2.0 million increase. Net charge-offs were an annualized 0.26% and 0.18% of average loans outstanding during the six months ended June 30, 2001 and June 30, 2000, respectively.
Non-Interest Income
Three months
During the three months ended June 30, 2001, non-interest income increased $32.5 million, or 190.1%, to $49.6 million from $17.1 million. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in net gain on loan sales and other fees and charges, offset by a decrease in the net gain on the sales of mortgage servicing rights and net loan administration fees.
Six months
During the six months ended June 30, 2001, non-interest income increased $55.4 million, or 191.6%, to $84.3 million from $28.9 million. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in net gain on loan sales and other fees and charges, offset by a decrease in the net gain on the sales of mortgage servicing rights and net loan administration fees.
Loan Administration
Three months
Net loan administration fee income decreased to a negative $5.8 million during the three months ended June 30, 2001, from $4.5 million in the 2000 period. This $10.3 million decrease was the result of the $9.0 million increase in the amortization of the mortgage servicing rights (“MSR”). This amortization increase was recorded to adjust for the increased prepayment on the underlying mortgage loans serviced for others. Fee income before the amortization of servicing rights decreased only $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001, to $6.8 million compared to the $8.1 million recorded in the 2000 period. This decrease in gross fee income was the result of the smaller portfolio of serviced loans during the 2001 period.
Six months
Net loan administration fee income for the six months ended June 30, 2001 decreased to a negative $5.2 million from $8.9 million recorded in the 2000 period. This $14.1 million decrease also was the result of the increased amortization of mortgage servicing rights. MSR amortization equaled $17.7 million during the 2001 period versus $7.4 million during the comparable 2000 period. Gross fee income, before the amortization of serving rights, decreased $3.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 to $12.5 million, from $16.3 million for the comparable 2000 period. This decrease in gross fee income was the result of the smaller portfolio of serviced loans during the 2001 period.
12
At June 30, 2001, the unpaid principal balance of loans serviced for others was $7.7 billion versus $7.6 billion serviced at March 31, 2001 and $6.6 billion serviced at December 31, 2000. At June 30, 2000, the unpaid principal balance of loans serviced for others was $8.4 billion versus $9.6 billion serviced at March 31, 2000 and $9.5 billion serviced at December 31, 1999. The weighted average servicing fee on loans serviced for others at June 30, 2001 was 0.285% (i.e., 28.5 basis points). The weighted average age of the loans serviced for others at June 30, 2001 was 16 month old.
Net Gain on Loan Sales
Three months
For the three months ended June 30, 2001, net gain on loan sales increased $45.7 million, to $49.0 million, from $3.3 million in the 2000 period. The 2001 period reflects the sale of $7.6 billion in loans versus $2.0 billion sold in the 2000 period. The higher interest rate environment in the 2000 period resulted in a smaller mortgage loan origination volume ($8.2 billion in the 2001 period vs. $2.5 billion in the 2000 period) and a smaller or narrower gain on sale spread (64 basis points in the 2001 period versus 16 basis points in the 2000 period) recorded when the loans were sold.
Six months
For the six months ended June 30, 2001, net gain on loan sales increased $71.5 million, to $77.0 million, from $5.5 million in the comparable 2000 period. The 2001 period includes the sale of $13.0 billion in loans versus $3.4 billion sold in the 2000 period. For the six month period ended June 30, 2001, the lower interest rate environment also resulted in a larger or wider gain on sale spread recorded (59 basis points in the 2001 period versus 16 basis points in the 2000 period) when the loans were sold.
Net Gain on the Sale of Mortgage Servicing Rights
Three months
For the three months ended June 30, 2001, the net gain on the sale of mortgage servicing rights decreased from $5.9 million during the 2000 period to a negative $258,000. The gain on sale of mortgage servicing rights decreased because the Company sold a $1.6 billion seasoned bulk servicing package in the 2000 period and did not have such a sale of seasoned loans in the 2001 period. During 2001, the Company sold $7.2 billion of newly originated servicing rights on a flow basis. The Company recorded a minimal $600,000 gain on these sales. During the 2001 period, prepayments recorded on prior MSR sales required an adjustment of $858,000. During 2000, the Company also sold $1.4 billion of servicing rights on a flow basis for a minimal profit.
Six months
For the six months ended June 30, 2001, the net gain on the sale of mortgage servicing rights decreased $4.7 million to $1.2 million, from $5.9 million for the same period in 2000. The gain on sale of mortgage servicing rights decreased due to the aforementioned sale of $1.6 billion of seasoned servicing rights in 2000. During 2001, the Company only recorded a minimal gain on a bulk servicing sale of $2.2 billion in mortgage servicing rights. During 2001, the Company sold a total of $9.1 billion in servicing versus the $13.4 billion of mortgage servicing rights originated. In 2000, the Company sold $4.1 billion and originated $3.4 billion in mortgage servicing rights.
Other Fees and Charges
Three months
During the three months ended June 30, 2001, the Company recorded $6.7 million in other fees and charges. In the comparable 2000 period, the Company recorded $3.7 million. The collection and recording of these fees are dependent on the amount of deposit accounts, the number of certain types of loans closed and the collection of any miscellaneous fees. During the 2001 period, the Company originated $48.3 million of commercial loans versus $12.0 million in the comparable 2000 period.
13
Six months
During the six months ended June 30, 2001, the Company recorded $11.4 million in other fees and charges. In the comparable 2000 period, the Company recorded $8.5 million. The collection and recording of these fees are dependent on the amount of deposit accounts, the number of certain types of loans closed and the collection of any miscellaneous fees. During the 2001 period, the Company originated $96.5 million of commercial loans versus $47.9 million in the comparable 2000 period.
Non-Interest Expense
The following table sets forth the components of the Company’s non-interest expense, along with the allocation of expenses related to loan originations that are deferred pursuant to SFAS No. 91, “Accounting for Nonrefundable Fees and Costs Associated with Originating or Acquiring Loans and Initial Direct Costs of Leases.” As required by SFAS No. 91, mortgage loan fees and certain direct origination costs (principally compensation and benefits) are capitalized as an adjustment to the basis of the loans originated during a period. Certain other expenses associated with loan production, however, are not required or allowed to be capitalized. These expense amounts are reflected on the Company’s statement of earnings. Management believes that the analysis of non-interest expense on a “gross” basis ( i.e., prior to the deferral of capitalized loan origination costs ) more clearly reflects the changes in non-interest expense when comparing periods.

Three months
Non-interest expense, excluding the capitalization of direct loan origination costs, increased $35.2 million, or 93.4%, to $72.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2001, from $37.7 million for the comparable 2000 period. This large increase in costs is for the most part explained above, but further explanation follows.
The largest changes occurred in compensation and benefits, commissions, occupancy and equipment, and general and administrative expenses reported.
The increased compensation and benefits expense of $13.6 million, or 93.2%, is the direct result of the increased personnel count which was required to support the additional banking centers and retail loan centers and to accommodate the growth in loan originations during the period.
The increased commission expense of $12.9 million, or 189.7%, is the direct result of the increased mortgage loan originations during the period. During the 2001 period commissions were 24 basis points of loan originations versus 28 basis points during the 2000 period.
The majority of the $3.2 million, or 45.1% increase in occupancy and equipment costs are directly attributable to the extensive facility expansion and the equipment required to accommodate the increased staff.
The increase in general and administrative expense is reflective of the increased mortgage loan originations and the increased number of banking centers in operation during the period.
During the three months ended June 30, 2001, the Company capitalized direct loan origination costs of $30.6 million, an increase of $15.6 million, or 104.0%, from $15.0 million for the comparable 2000 period. The 2001 deferral equates to a capitalization of $553 per loan versus $813 per loan in the 2000 period.
Six months
During the six months ended June 30, 2001, non-interest expense, excluding the capitalization of direct loan origination costs, increased by $57.1 million, or 79.9%, to $128.6 million, from $71.5 million for the comparable 2000 period. The increased costs are also attributable to the above mentioned changes. The largest increases occurred in the amounts of compensation and benefits, commissions, general and administrative expenses, and occupancy and equipment costs reported.
The increased compensation and benefits expense of $23.2 million, or 78.1%, is the direct result of the increased personnel count which was required to support the additional banking centers and retail loan centers and to accommodate the growth in loan originations during the period.
The increased commission expense of $20.8 million, or 174.8%, is the direct result of the increased mortgage loan originations during the period. During the 2001 period commissions were 24 basis points of loan originations versus 27 basis points during the 2000 period.
The majority of the $5.0 million, or 37.0% increase in occupancy and equipment costs are directly attributable to the extensive facility expansion and the equipment required to accommodate the increased staff.
The increase in general and administrative expense is reflective of the increased mortgage loan originations and the increased number of banking centers in operation during the period.
During the six months ended June 30, 2001, the Company capitalized direct loan origination costs of $49.7 million, an increase of $24.3 million, or 95.7%, from $25.4 million for the comparable 2000 period. The 2001 deferral equates to a capitalization of $536 per loan versus $755 per loan in the 2000 period.

Financial Condition
Assets
The Company’s assets totaled $6.0 billion at June 30, 2001, an increase of $0.2 billion, or 3.4%, as compared to $5.8 billion at December 31, 2000. This increase was primarily due to an increase in cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2001 but, encompassed small increases in the majority of asset categories.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents increased from $76.7 million at December 31, 2000 to $202.3 million at June 30, 2001. The cash on hand at June 30, 2001 includes $135.0 million of funds held in an overnight time account at the Federal Home Loan Bank. This excess cash was part of the proceeds received on loan sales consummated at the end of June. These funds were utilized in the mortgage banking operation during July.
Loans receivable, net
Loans receivable, net at June 30, 2001 was down only $19.2 million from December 31, 2000. Despite this almost identical balance, the components of the totals have changed dramatically.
Mortgage loans available for sale increased $296.3 million, or 20.6%, to $1.7 billion at June 30, 2001, from $1.4 billion at December 31, 2000. This increase is primarily attributable to the record amount of loan production originated during the second quarter. At June 30, 2001, the majority of these loans were originated within the two weeks prior to the end of the quarter.
Loans held for investment decreased $310.4 million, or 8.1%, from $3.8 billion at December 31, 2000 to $3.5 billion at June 30, 2001. This decrease is primarily attributable to the increase in mortgage loan refinances. Despite that $310.4 million decrease, there were substantial increases in most of the non residential mortgage balances. These increases included a $40.9 million increase in second mortgage loans, a $61.5 million increase in commercial real estate loans, a $1.4 million increase in commercial loans, and a $1.6 million increase in consumer loans.
Additionally, the Company had issued lines of credit to its warehouse customers through the commercial loan department totaling $244.3 million at June 30, 2001, up 265.7% from $66.8 million of utilized warehouse lines of credit at December 31, 2000. Approved warehouse lines of credit at June 30, 2001 totaled $406.4 million.

Allowance for losses
The allowance for losses totaled $30.0 million at June 30, 2001, an increase of $5.0 million, or 20.0%, from $25.0 million at December 31, 2000. This increase was recorded to offset the $11.7 million increase in delinquent loans in the Company’s loan portfolio and to offset any further losses in the Company’s $31.3 million REO portfolio.
Additionally, the Company increased these reserves to offset the trend occurring within the Company’s held for investment portfolio. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2001, loan charge-offs have increased $1.7 million, or 70.5%, and $3.1 million, or 78.4%, versus the comparative periods in 2000, respectively.
The allowance for losses as a percentage of non-performing loans was 45.8% and 39.3% at June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000, respectively. The Company’s non-performing loans totaled $65.5 million and $63.6 million at June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000, respectively. The allowance for losses as a percentage of total loans, was 0.58% and 0.48% at June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000, respectively. The increase in the dollar amount of the allowance for losses was based upon management’s assessment of relevant factors, including the types and amounts of non-performing loans, historical, and anticipated loss experience on such types of loans, and current and projected economic conditions. During the six months ended June 30, 2001, non-performing loans increased $1.9 million, or 3.0% and management increased the allowance for losses $5.0 million, creating a 8.0% decrease in net non-performing loans.
FHLB stock
Holdings of FHLB stock increased from $98.8 million at December 31, 2000 to $117.7 million at June 30, 2001. These increases were made to comply with the member rules as set down by the FHLB. As a member of the FHLB, the Bank is required to hold shares of FHLB stock in an amount at least equal to 1% of the aggregate unpaid principal balance of its home mortgage loans, or 5% of its outstanding FHLB advances, whichever is greater. During the quarter ended June 30, 2001, the FHLB advance total reached $1.9 billion creating the need for the increased stock balance.
Accrued interest receivable
Accrued interest receivable increased from $39.1 million at December 31, 2000 to $42.6 million at June 30, 2001 as the Company’s total loan portfolio increased. The Company typically collects loan interest in the following month after it is earned.
Repossessed assets
Repossessed assets increased from $22.3 million at December 31, 2000 to $31.3 million at June 30, 2001. This increase was caused by a greater amount of loans in a foreclosed status which are yet to be sold.
�� Mortgage servicing rights
Mortgage servicing rights totaled $110.7 million at June 30, 2001, an increase of $4.3 million, or 4.0%, from $106.4 million reported at December 31, 2000. During the six months ended June 30, 2001, the Company capitalized $226.3 million, amortized $17.7 million, and sold $204.3 million in mortgage servicing rights. The principal balance of the loans serviced for others stands at $7.7 billion at June 30, 2001 versus $6.6 billion at December 31, 2000. The capitalized value of the mortgage servicing rights was 1.44% and 1.60% value at June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000, respectively.
18
Other assets
Other assets increased $69.1 million, or 79.4%, to $156.1 million at June 30, 2001, from $87.0 million at December 31, 2000. The majority of this increase was attributable to the recording of receivables in conjunction with the sale of residential mortgage loan servicing rights completed during the six months ended June 30, 2001. Upon the sale of the mortgage servicing rights a receivable is recorded for a portion of the sale proceeds. The balance due is paid within 180 days after the sale date.
Liabilities
The Company’s total liabilities increased $0.2 billion, or 3.6%, to $5.8 billion at June 30, 2001, from $5.6 billion at December 31, 2000. This increase was not centered in any individual category but included an increase in most every liability category.
Retail deposit accounts
Retail deposit accounts increased $0.3 billion, or 15.8%, to $2.2 billion at June 30, 2001, from $1.9 billion at December 31, 2000. This increase reflects the deposit growth strategy being implemented in the Company’s bank branch network. The number of bank branches increased from 52 at December 31, 2000 to 63 at June 30, 2001. At June 30, 2001, the Company’s retail certificates of deposit totaled $1.4 billion, or 63.6% of total retail deposits. These certificates carry an average balance of $20,695 and a weighted average cost of 6.15%. During the third quarter, the Company has $368.0 million of these certificates that carry a rate of 6.35% maturing. The Company expects to renew the majority of these accounts at a rate which is 250 basis points less than the current rate.
Wholesale deposit accounts
Wholesale deposit accounts decreased $0.4 billion, or 33.3%, to $1.1 billion at June 30, 2001, from $1.5 billion at December 31, 2000. This decrease reflects the Company’s strategy to reduce its reliance on higher costing secondary market certificates of deposit. The Company has emphasized the use of lower costing retail deposits and advances from the FHLB which are more sensitive to the current interest rate environment.
These deposits are made up entirely of certificates of deposit garnered through the secondary market. At June 30, 2001, the portfolio of certificates of deposit had a weighted cost of 5.76%. During the third quarter, the Company has $202.1 million of these certificates which carry a rate of 5.61% maturing. The Company does not expect to renew these accounts.
FHLB advances
FHLB advances increased $0.2 billion, or 11.8%, to $1.9 billion at June 30, 2001, from $1.7 million at December 31, 2000. The Company relies upon these advances as a funding source for the origination or purchase of loans, which are later sold into the secondary market. The outstanding balance of FHLB advances fluctuates from time to time depending upon the Company’s current inventory of loans held for sale and the availability of lower cost funding from its deposit base and its escrow accounts.
Long term debt
On April 30, 1999, the Company issued $74.8 million of 9.50% preferred securities to the general public in an initial public offering. The securities were issued by the Company’s subsidiary, Flagstar Trust, a Delaware trust. The preferred securities mature in 30 years, pay interest quarterly, and the interest expense is deductible for federal income tax purposes. The net proceeds from the offering were contributed to Flagstar Bank as additional paid in capital and is included as regulatory capital.
19
Undisbursed payments on loans serviced for others
Undisbursed payments on loans serviced for others increased $43.0 million, or 63.9%, to $110.3 million at June 30, 2001, from $67.3 million at December 31, 2000. These amounts represent payments received from borrowers for interest, principal and related loan charges, which have not been remitted to the respective investors. These balances fluctuate with the size of the servicing portfolio and increase during a time of high payoff or refinance volume. The large increase at June 30, 2001 is reflective of the refinance environment currently being experienced by the Company.
Escrow accounts
Customer escrow accounts increased $53.5 million, or 97.4%, to $108.4 million at June 30, 2001, from $54.9 million at December 31, 2000. These amounts represent payments received from borrowers for taxes and insurance payments, which have not been remitted to the tax authorities or insurance providers. These balances fluctuate with the size of the servicing portfolio and during the year before and after the remittance of scheduled payments. A large amount of escrow payments are made in July to local school and municipal agencies.
Liability for checks issued
Liability for checks issued increased $91.6 million, or 188.1%, to $140.3 million at June 30, 2001, from $48.7 million at December 31, 2000. These amounts represent checks issued to acquire mortgage loans that have not cleared for payment. These balances fluctuate with the size of the mortgage pipeline. The large increase at June 2001 is indicative of the large production volumes recorded by the Company during the period.
Federal income taxes payable
Federal income taxes payable decreased $9.9 million, or 15.9%, to $52.5 million at June 30, 2001, from $62.4 million at December 31, 2000. This decrease is attributable to the payment of taxes during the six months ended June 30, 2001 offset by an increase in the deferred tax liability created through operations.
Other liabilities
Other liabilities increased $18.4 million, or 26.2%, to $88.5 million at June 30, 2001, from $70.1 million at December 31, 2000. This increase was caused by an increase in accrued liabilities associated with the increased employee count, the large mortgage production volume, and the recently approved dividend.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity
Liquidity refers to the ability or the financial flexibility to manage future cash flows in order to meet the needs of depositors and borrowers and fund operations on a timely and cost-effective basis. The Company has no other significant business than that of its wholly owned subsidiary, Flagstar Bank, FSB.
A significant source of cash flow for the Company is the sale of mortgage loans held for sale. Additionally, the Company receives funds from loan principal repayments, advances from the FHLB, deposits from customers and cash generated from operations.
Mortgage loans sold during the three months ended June 30, 2001 totaled $7.6 billion, an increase of $5.6 billion, or 215.4% from $2.0 billion sold during the same period in 2000. This increase in mortgage loan sales was attributable to the 228.0% increase in mortgage loan originations during the quarter. The Company sold 92.7% and 80.0% of its mortgage loan originations during the three month period ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
Mortgage loans sold during the six months ended June 30, 2001 totaled $13.0 billion, and increase of $9.6 billion, or 282.4% from $3.4 billion sold during the same period in 2000. This increase in mortgage loan sales was attributable to the 209.1% increase in mortgage loan originations. The Company sold 95.6% and 77.3% of its mortgage loan originations during the six month period ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
The Company typically uses FHLB advances to fund its daily operational liquidity needs and to assist in funding loan originations. The Company will continue to use this source of funds until a more cost-effective source of funds becomes available. FHLB advances are used because of their flexibility. The Company had $1.9 billion outstanding at June 30, 2001. Such advances are repaid with the proceeds from the sale of mortgage loans held for sale. The Company currently has an authorized line of credit equal to $2.5 billion. This line is collateralized by non-delinquent mortgage loans. To the extent that the amount of retail deposits or customer escrow accounts can be increased, the Company expects to replace FHLB advances.
At June 30, 2001, the Company had outstanding rate-lock commitments to lend $2.8 billion in mortgage loans, along with outstanding commitments to make other types of loans totaling $91.6 million. Because such commitments may expire without being drawn upon, they do not necessarily represent future cash commitments. Also, at June 30, 2001, the Company had outstanding commitments to sell $2.5 billion of mortgage loans. These commitments will be funded within 90 days. Total commercial and consumer unused lines of credit totaled $245.2 million at June 30, 2001. Such commitments include $162.1 million of unused warehouse lines of credit to various mortgage companies. The Company had advanced $244.3 million at June 30, 2001.
Capital Resources.
At June 30, 2001, the Bank exceeded all applicable bank regulatory minimum capital requirements. The Company is not subject to any such requirements.

Item 3. Market Risk
In its mortgage banking operations, the Company is exposed to market risk in the form of interest rate risk from the time the interest rate on a mortgage loan application is committed to by the Company through the time the Company sells or commits to sell the mortgage loan. On a daily basis, the Company analyzes various economic and market factors and, based upon these analyses, projects the amount of mortgage loans it expects to sell for delivery at a future date. The actual amount of loans sold will be a percentage of the number of mortgage loans on which the Company has issued binding commitments (and thereby locked in the interest rate) but has not yet closed (“pipeline loans”) to actual closings. If interest rates change in an unanticipated fashion, the actual percentage of pipeline loans that close may differ from the projected percentage. The resultant mismatching of commitments to fund mortgage loans and commitments to sell mortgage loans may have an adverse effect on the results of operations in any such period. For instance, a sudden increase in interest rates can cause a higher percentage of pipeline loans to close than projected. To the degree that this is not anticipated, the Company will not have made commitments to sell these additional pipeline loans and may incur losses upon their sale as the market rate of interest will be higher than the mortgage interest rate committed to by the Company on such additional pipeline loans. To the extent that the hedging strategies utilized by the Company are not successful, the Company’s profitability may be adversely affected.
Management believes there has been no material change in either interest rate risk or market risk since December 31, 2000.
