Item 2. | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
General
Clarkston Financial Corporation (the "Company") is a Michigan corporation incorporated on May 18, 1998. The Company is the bank holding company for Clarkston State Bank (the "Bank"). The Bank commenced operations on January 4, 1999. The Bank is a Michigan chartered bank with depository accounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Bank provides a full range of commercial and consumer banking services, primarily in Clarkston, Michigan and the surrounding market area primarily located in north Oakland County, Michigan. The Bank operates five customer service locations including two full service branches.
Financial Condition
Total assets of the Company increased by $7.8 million or 9.3% to $91.7 million at March 31, 2002, from $83.9 million at December 31, 2001. The increase in assets is primarily attributable to the Bank continuing to attract customer deposits. The Company anticipates that the Bank's assets will continue to increase during 2002, which is the Bank's fourth full year of operations.
Cash and cash equivalents, which include federal funds sold and short-term investments, decreased $1.4 million or 24.1% to $4.4 million at March 31, 2002 from $5.8 million at December 31, 2001. The decrease is primarily the result of reinvesting cash into investments in an effort to get better utilization and additional spread income.
Securities increased $7.7 million or 18.1% to $50.2 million at March 31, 2002 from $42.5 million at December 31, 2001. The increase is the result of deposit growth and efforts to increase spread income by keeping less cash in federal funds.
Total loans increased by $1.2 million or 3.5% to $35.7 million at March 31, 2002, from $34.5 million at December 31, 2001. Management believes that total loans will continue to increase over time as economic and local market conditions improve.
The allowance for loan losses as of March 31, 2002 was $434,000, representing approximately 1.22% of total loans outstanding, compared to $419,000 as of December 31, 2001.
As of December 31, 2001, the Company had an accumulated profit of $88,000 and as of March 31, 2002, the accumulated profit was $213,000. The accumulated profit continues to improve as the Bank has increased its net interest and non-interest income while continuing to maintain low operating expenses.
12
Results of Operations
The Company's net profit was $125,000 for the first quarter of 2002 compared to net profit of $114,000 for the first quarter of 2001. The Bank began operations in 1999 and has earned a profit every month since January, 2000. Net profit for the three month period ended March 31, 2002 included a federal income tax provision of $72,000.
Interest income for the first quarter of 2002 was $1.37 million, an increase of 24.5% from interest income of $1.1 for the first quarter of 2001. This increase resulted primarily from the increase in loans and securities. Interest expense was $620,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2002, an increase of 1.3% from interest expense of $612,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2002. This consisted of interest paid on interest bearing deposits.
The Company had an allowance for loan losses of approximately 1.22% of total loans at March 31, 2002. The provision expense for loan loss for the three month period ended March 31, 2002, was $15,000. Management believes the current rate of providing for the loan loss reserve is adequate.
In each accounting period, management evaluates the problems and potential losses in the loan portfolio. Moreover, consideration is also given to off-balance sheet items that may involve credit risk, such as commitments to extend credit. Management's evaluation of the allowance is further based on consideration of actual loss experience, the present and prospective financial condition of borrowers, adequacy of collateral, industry concentrations within the portfolio and general economic conditions. The results of these evaluations are reflected in the allowance and periodic provision for credit losses. Please note, the Bank has no other off-balance sheet liabilities other than commitments to extend credit in the form of letters and lines of credit
The primary risk element considered by management regarding each installment and residential real estate loan is the lack of timely payments. Management has a reporting system that monitors past due loans and has adopted policies to pursue its creditor's rights in order to preserve the Bank's position. The primary risk elements concerning commercial loans are the financial condition of the borrower, the sufficiency of the collateral and lack of timely payment. Management has a policy of requesting and reviewing annual financial statements from its commercial loan customers and periodically reviews the existence and value of collateral for selected loans.
Noninterest expense was $646,000 for the first quarter of 2002, a $262,000 (or 68.2%) increase over the first quarter of 2001, the increase is primarily attributable to increases in salaries and benefits due to the increase of full time equivalents and normal raises given to employees. These increases are consistent with management's plans to grow the balance sheet as noted by the opening of several offices during 2001.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity is measured by our ability to raise funds through deposits, borrowed funds, capital or cash flow from the repayment of loans and investment securities. These funds are used to meet deposit withdrawals, maintain reserve requirements, fund loans and support our operations. Liquidity is primarily achieved through the growth of deposits and liquid assets such as securities available for sale, matured securities, and federal funds sold. Asset and liability management is the process of managing our balance sheet to achieve a mix of earning assets and liabilities that maximizes profitability, while providing adequate liquidity.
Our liquidity strategy is to fund loan growth with deposits and to maintain an adequate level of short- and medium-term investments to meet typical daily loan and deposit activity. Although deposits from depositors located in our market area have consistently increased, there is no assurance that deposit growth alone will be sufficient to fund our loan growth and provide monies for additional investing activities.
Shareholders' equity is a non-interest bearing source of funds that provides support for asset growth. The Company obtained its initial equity capital in an initial public offering of its common stock in November, 1998. The Company's plan of operation for the next twelve months does not contemplate the need to raise additional capital during that period. Management believes that its current capital and liquidity will provide the Company with adequate capital to support its expected level of deposit and loan growth and to otherwise meet its cash and capital requirements for at least the next year.
