DUNMORE, PA 18512
FORM 10-Q SEPTEMBER 30, 2002
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSThe accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Fidelity D&D Bancorp, Inc., and subsidiary, The Fidelity Deposit & Discount Bank, (Bank), (collectively the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10-01 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods have been included. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation. Prior period amounts are reclassified when necessary to conform to the current year’s presentation.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires 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 reported periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. For additional information and disclosures required under GAAP, please refer to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001.
The Bank is a commercial bank chartered by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Having commenced operations in 1903, the Bank provides a full range of traditional banking services and alternative financial products from its main office located in Dunmore and other branches throughout Lackawanna and Luzerne counties.
Management is responsible for the fairness, integrity and objectivity of the unaudited financial statements included in this report. Management prepared the unaudited financial statements in accordance with GAAP. In meeting its responsibility for the financial statements, management depends on the Company’s accounting systems and related internal controls. These systems and controls are designed to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that the financial records accurately reflect the transactions of the Company, that Company assets are safeguarded and that financial statements present fairly the financial position and results of operations of the Company.
7In the opinion of management, the consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001 present fairly the consolidated financial position of the Company as of those dates and the related statements of income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 and changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 present fairly the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the periods then ended. All material adjustments required for fair presentation have been made. These adjustments are of a normal reoccurring nature. There have been no material changes in accounting principles, practices or in the method of application and there have been no retroactive adjustments during this period.
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2001 and the notes included therein, in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the entire year.
The Company maintains a system of controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance as to the reliability of the financial statements and other disclosures included in this report, as well as to safeguard assets from unauthorized use or disposition. The Company evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, within 90 days prior to the filing date of this report. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information required to be included in our periodic Securities and Exchange Commission filings. No significant changes were made to our internal controls or other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation.
Critical Accounting Policies
The presentation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect many of the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
A material estimate that is particularly susceptible to significant change is the determination of the allowance for loan losses. Management believes that the allowance for loan losses is adequate and reasonable. The Company’s methodology for determining the allowance for loan losses is described in a separate section later in Management’s Discussion and Analysis. Given the very subjective nature of identifying and valuing loan losses, it is likely that well-informed individuals could make materially different assumptions, and could, therefore calculate a materially different allowance value. While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, changes in economic conditions may necessitate revisions in future years. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company’s allowance for loan losses.
8Such agencies may require the Company to recognize adjustments to the allowance based on their judgments of information available to them at the time of their examination. Further, a task force of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants is working on detailed implementation guidance for calculating the allowance for loan losses. Implementation of that detailed implementation guidance, which may be issued in 2002, could result in an adjustment to the allowance.
Another material estimate is the calculation of fair values of the Company’s investment securities. The Company receives estimated fair values of investment securities from an independent valuation service through a broker. In developing these fair values, the valuation service uses estimates of cash flows based on historical performance of similar instruments in similar interest rate environments. Based on experience, management is aware that estimated fair values of investment securities tend to vary among valuation services. Accordingly, when selling investment securities, management typically obtains price quotes from more than one source. The majority of the Company’s investment securities are classified as available-for-sale. Accordingly, these securities are carried at fair value on the consolidated balance sheet, with unrealized gains and losses, net of income tax, excluded from earnings and reported separately through accumulated other comprehensive income (included in shareholders’ equity).
The fair value of residential mortgage loans classified as available-for-sale is obtained from the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae). The fair value of SBA loans classified as available-for-sale is obtained from an outside pricing source. The market to which the Bank sells mortgage and other loans is restricted and price quotes from other sources are not typically obtained.

================================================================================================================================
As indicated in the table above, deposits increased 6.07% during the first nine months of 2002.
Public fund deposits accounted for 16.76% of total deposits. The Bank was able to attract public funds due to long established relationships and competitive product pricing. However, it is recognized that public fund deposits are sensitive to the operating demands of the various public entities and the changing political landscape. Thus the Bank could experience material shifts in these outstanding balances throughout the year.
During the year the Bank instituted several programs to attract deposits.
The Fidelity Check Card Campaign was designed to issue check cards to new and existing depositors. With the ease of purchasing goods and services with check cards, the Bank provides
13depositors an incentive to increase balances carried in their accounts. During the campaign maintenance charges were waived for one year for any card issued.
Fidelity’s All-American Checking Campaign was initiated to attract personal and small business checking accounts. Incentives included no minimum balance requirements and the first order of 50 checks free.
The Visa Business Check Card Campaign targeted new business check cards and demand deposit accounts.
The Bank also offered discounts on home equity loan fees and first year free safe deposit box rentals for customers who had their payments directly charged to a demand deposit account.
Commercial borrowers were encouraged to have their operating and payroll accounts at the Bank.
At September 30, 2002 the new Eynon branch had $3,594,000 in new deposits. Certificates of deposit comprised 95.12% of those new deposits.
Bank checks (official checks) are used to pay operating expenses of the Bank, deposit paydowns and loan disbursements. While Bank checks are included in deposits, they are not deposits from customers.
Short-term borrowings, which are comprised of repurchase agreements (repos), treasury tax and loan retained funds and federal funds purchased, decreased $6,076,000 or 11.15%.
During the second quarter of 2002, 12,960 shares of common stock became available on the open market. The Bank purchased the stock for $479,640 with the intention to reissue the stock under the dividend reinvestment plan. At the September 10, 2002 dividend payment date, 3,219 shares of treasury stock were reissued under the dividend reinvestment plan.
As detailed in the statement of cash flows, total cash and cash equivalents had a net decrease due to a reduction in short-term borrowings, primarily repos, increases in Federal Funds sold and the investment portfolio, net loan disbursements, fixed asset acquisitions and the purchase of treasury stock. The decrease was partially offset by an increase in deposits.
During 2002, net loans, grew $8,901,000 or 2.49%. Commercial loans increased $21,109,000 or 11.79%. Consumer loans and direct financing leases decreased due to reduced demand and a Management directive to substantially curtail leasing activities. The demand was affected by current economic conditions and Bank policies designed to improve the overall quality of the portfolio.
Residential mortgages and student loans totaling $21,105,000 were sold during 2002 to provide liquidity and address future interest rate and credit risk.
14At September 30, 2002 the outstanding balance on credit card receivables was $2,902,000. The Bank is considering discontinuing this line of business and selling the entire portfolio to a third-party processor. Credit risk within the portfolio, current and future net earnings from the cards and overall liquidity requirements will be factored into the decision to sell or retain.
The following table reflects the composition of the loan portfolio, (available-for-sale loans not included):

The Company has classified certain residential mortgages, student loans and SBA guaranteed loans of $18,406,000 as available-for-sale (AFS) at September 30, 2002. The fair value of AFS loans at September 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001 was $18,938,000 and $16,418,000, respectively.
Paydowns and early calls of US agency, mortgage-backed securities and municipal bonds totaled $75,247,000. Available-for-sale US Government Agency bonds and mortgage-backed securities of $37,193,000 were sold to provide liquidity and to improve the yield on earning assets. Investments primarily in mortgage-backed securities of $126,006,000 were purchased during 2002.
Investments in mortgage-backed securities were made because these securities provide a monthly cash flow that can be used for reinvestment, they historically do not extend to their stated maturity dates and they are not susceptible to a full call.
In light of fluctuations in the bond market, the investment strategy used during 2002 was able to produce a 5.71% year-to-date tax equivalent yield on the entire portfolio at September 30, 2002. That yield is comparable to the 5.84% tax equivalent yield at December 31, 2001. As would be expected, the decline in market rates caused a decrease in the year-to-date yield for 2002.
Due to the dramatic change in the composition of the portfolio, the market value of the available-for-sale securities improved $2,769,000 during 2002.
Fluctuations in capital markets cause frequent changes in the market value of investments. Market conditions are monitored daily and the Company is prepared to take remedial actions if deemed appropriate.

At September 30, 2002, capital expenditures for the new core processing system, scheduled for operations during the fourth quarter of 2002, were $1,189,000. The projected cost of the system was $1,300,000. Capitalized expenditures will be depreciated over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method.
Construction cost overruns increased capitalized expenditures at the Eynon branch to approximately $930,000 at September 30, 2002. Capital expenditures for Eynon, excluding bank equipment, were originally projected at $250,000. The branch opened July 17, 2002. Capitalized expenditures will be depreciated over their estimated useful lives.
172. Changes in Results of Operations:
Net Income for the nine months ending September 30, 2002 and 2001 was $3,119,936 and $3,147,588, respectively. The significant differences are as follows:
2002 2001 Difference
Net interest income $ 12,350,521 $ 12,002,314 $ 348,207 A
Provision for loan losses $ 1,176,000 $ 1,173,937 $ (2,063) B

Other expense $ 2,971,485 $ 3,060,469 $ 88,984
Provision for income tax $ 1,138,169 $ 894,807 $(243,362) E
- The year-to-date tax equivalent (“TE”) yield on Average Earning Assets decreased 143 basis points (bp) from 7.59% at September 30, 2001, to 6.42% at September 30, 2002. This reduction reflects the five reductions in the discount rate since September 30, 2001. The reductions totaled 200 bp.
It should be noted that the discount rate was 9.50% at January 1, 2001 and only 4.75% at January 1, 2002, a difference of 475bp. In effect, that means that the yields on earnings assets were significantly higher in the beginning of 2001, than they were at the beginning of 2002.
The discount rate is the rate at which the Federal Reserve Bank lends overnight funds to banks. Changes in the discount rate have a direct effect on loans and investments subject to immediate repricing and call features.
The decline in market rates allowed the Bank to reduce rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities. The cost of funds decreased 107 bp from 4.89% at September 30, 2001, to 3.82% at September 30, 2002.
The improvement in net interest income results from a volume increase in earning assets and a decrease in interest expense.
- The increase in the provision for loan losses is a result of loan growth and Management’s analysis of potential loss within the portfolio.
- Increases of $52,000 in trust income and $115,000 in annuity sales comprised 96% of the increase in deposit service charges and other income.

- Staff increases, merit pay increases and higher benefit costs increased personnel expense $356,000. The year-to-date average number of full time equivalent employees increased from 166 at September 30, 2001, to 174 at September 30, 2002.
- The effective federal income tax rate was 26.73% and 22.14% for the nine months ending September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Income before provision for income taxes in 2002 increased $216,000 over 2001. Non-taxable income as a percentage of net income before taxes declined from 28.47% in 2001, to 19.20% in 2002.
Net Income for the three months ending September 30, 2002 and 2001 was $933,054 and $924,138, respectively. The significant differences are as follows

Cost of funds was 3.68% and 4.56% for the three months ending September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The improvement in net interest income results from a volume increase in earning assets and a decrease in interest expense.
- The increase in the provision for loan losses is a result of loan growth and Management’s analysis of potential loss within the portfolio.
- The average number of full time equivalent employees for the three months ending September 30, 2002 and 2001 was 177 and 173, respectively.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Provision for Loan Losses
The provision is an expense charged against earnings for actual or potential losses from uncollectible loans and leases. Through the provision, the allowance for loan losses is increased. Loans determined to be uncollectible are charged-off against the allowance.
The Bank has established an Asset Quality Committee which meets monthly to review known and potential problem loans and leases. The committee is comprised of senior management, credit administration and collection personnel. The committee reports quarterly to the Credit Administration Committee of the Board of Directors.
Management continuously reviews the risks inherent in the loan and lease portfolios. Specific factors used to evaluate the adequacy of the loan loss provision during this formal process include:
- Specific loans that could have loss potential
- Levels of and trends in delinquencies and non accrual loans
- Levels of and trends in charge-offs and recoveries
- Trends in volume and terms of loans
- Changes in risk selection and underwriting standards
- Changes in lending policies, procedures and practices
- Experience, ability and depth of lending management
- National and local economic trends and conditions
- Changes in credit concentrations
For the nine months ended September 30, 2002, there were no adjustments made to the historical loan loss experience. However, there were qualitative adjustments made to the above factors based upon current delinquency levels within the loan portfolio and net charge-offs. The qualitative adjustments necessitated an increase in the provision for loan losses.
The Bank does not have significant concentrations of loans in specific industries or outside the Northeastern Pennsylvania geographic area. There are no individual significant nonperforming loans.

The allowance for loan losses can generally absorb losses throughout the loan and lease portfolios. However, in some instances an allocation is made for specific loans or groups of loans.
The slowing economy has impacted the loan portfolio. That trend is reflected in the increase in charged-off loans, especially commercial and consumer. The increase in the number of delinquencies necessitated the hiring of additional collection personnel during 2002, to help facilitate the collection process.
Over the last five years, management has analyzed and relied on similar factors in determining the amount of loan loss provision relative to the adequacy of the allowance for loan loss. The methodology used by the Bank to analyze the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is as follows (loans and leases are collectively referred to as loans):
- Identification of specific problem loans by loan category by the credit administration.
- Calculation of specific reserves required based on collateral and other persuasive evidence.
- Identification of loans collateralized by cash.
- Determination of remaining homogenous pools by loan category and eliminating loans collateralized by cash and loans with specific reserves.
- Application of historical loss percentages (5-year average) to pools to determine the allowance allocation.
Allocation of the allowance for loan losses for different categories of loans is based on the methodology used by the Bank, as explained above. The changes in the allocations from period to period are based upon reviews of the loan and lease portfolios.
22
In the internal review of loans during 2002, for both delinquency and collateral sufficiency, management concluded that there were an above average number of loans that lacked the ability to repay in accordance with contractual terms. The allowance for loan losses was increased based upon these findings.
Bank policy stipulates that loans not secured by residential or commercial real estate, in payment default exceeding 90 days, shall be placed in a non-accrual status. Loans secured by real estate will by placed in a non-accrual status when payment default exceeds 180 days.
In addition, it was determined there were other loans that did not have the ability to make any repayment. Accordingly, management found it necessary to charge-off these loans and to increase the allowance for loan loss for certain other loans. The charge-offs were made after collateral was repossessed, foreclosed upon or notice was forwarded to governmental guarantors.
The Bank is unaware of any potential problem loans that have not been reviewed and addressed. Potential problem loans are those where there is known information that leads the Bank to believe repayment of principal and/or interest is in jeopardy and the loans are neither non-accrual nor past due 90 days or more.
Based upon the thorough analysis of both the loan portfolio and the allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2002, the Bank is confident that the allowance provides adequate protection against portfolio loss. However, there could be instances of which the Bank is unaware that may require additional charge-offs and or increases to the provision.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk management is an integral part of the Asset Liability Management Process. Interest rate risk is defined as the degree to which interest rate movements may affect net interest income and the balance sheet. Fluctuations in rates can affect income through the balance of repricing assets and source funds. If more assets reprice than liabilities, the balance sheet is positively gapped. This position contributes favorably to net interest income in a rising interest rate environment. Conversely, if the balance sheet has more liabilities repricing than assets, the balance sheet is liability sensitive and negatively gapped. In a declining rate environment, net interest income would improve.
The Company uses a simulation model to better understand the risks to the Company that may be brought about by changes in market interest rates. At September 30, 2002, the Company simulated the effects on the net interest margin given an immediate parallel shift in the yield curve of 200 basis points in either direction. The results of the simulation did not fall within the Company’s established policy limits for changes in the net interest margin if rates decreased 200 basis points. There was however, an improvement since June 30, 2002. A 200 basis point decrease at June 30, 2002 would have reduced the net interest margin by 17.86%. At September 30, 2002, the reduction was 13.95%.
23Given the current market conditions it is highly unlikely that there would be an immediate 200 basis point decline in rates. However, the Company is exploring strategies to improve this situation. Such strategies could include increasing the relative amount of rate sensitive assets by shorting the terms on investments or by acquiring more adjustable rate assets. Another tactic would be to emphasize longer-term deposit rates.
The Company has instituted certain procedures and policy guidelines to manage the rate sensitive position. Those internal rules enable the Company to react to changes in market rates and protect net interest income from significant fluctuations.

Investments included with assets due within one year were scheduled by maturity dates and not by call dates.
Liabilities include deposits not having stated maturity dates (DDA’s, NOWs, Savings & MMDA’s) in the amounts reported. In addition, sweep accounts were classified as having immediate maturity dates.
Liquidity Management
Liquidity for a bank is the ability to fund customers' needs for borrowings deposit withdrawals and normal operating expenses of the Bank. Sources of liquidity are:
- Cash and cash equivalents
- Asset maturities and paydowns
- Loans and investments available-for-sale
- Growth of core deposits
- Growth of repurchase agreements
- Increase of other borrowed funds from correspondent banks
- Issuance of capital stock
Management monitors asset and liability maturities to match anticipated cash flow requirements. These cash flow requirements are reviewed with the use of internally generated reports.
Management believes that the present level of liquidity is adequate for current operations.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATIONITEM 1. Legal Proceedings.
On July 1, 2002, the bank was served with a Civil Complaint that was filed in the Court of Common Pleas of Lackawanna County, Pennsylvania, on June 28, 2002. Scaccia Construction Company, the plaintiff, based upon multiple causes of action, demands approximately $250,000 in connection with certain environmental remediation activities purportedly performed prior to the opening of the bank's new Eynon branch. On July 22, 2002, the bank filed Preliminary Objections to the Complaint. Plaintiff replied to the bank's Preliminary Objections on August 20, 2002, and filed a Brief in Opposition. The bank awaits the Court's determination to these pleadings. The bank intends to vigorously defend this action.
Management, after consulting with the company's legal counsel, is not aware of any litigation that would have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position of the company. There are no proceedings pending other than ordinary routine litigation incident to the business of the company and of the bank. In addition, management does not know of any material proceedings contemplated by governmental authorities against the company or the bank.
