FIRST NATIONAL BANCORP, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2000
(Unaudited)
(Table amounts in thousands of dollars,
except per share data)
NOTE 1BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of First National Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") and its wholly-owned subsidiary,
First National Bank of Joliet, (the "Bank"). All material intercompany items and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The
accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly,
certain disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles are not included herein. These interim statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and
notes thereto included in the Compnany's 1999 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The December 31, 1999 condensed balance sheet has been derived
from the audited financial statements included in the Company's 1999 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, but does not include all disclosures required
by generally accepted accounting principles.
Interim
statements are subject to possible adjustment in connection with the annual audit of the Company for the year ending December 31, 2000. In the opinion of management of
the Company, the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of
the consolidated financial position and consolidated results of operations for the periods presented.
The
results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
Earnings
per share of common stock is based on weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Earnings per share of common stock has been restated for the period
ended March 31, 1999 for the 5-for-4 stock split effected in the form of a 25% stock dividend as discussed in Note 5.

NOTE 3LOANS
Loans
are made to both individuals and commercial entities in a wide variety of industries. Loan terms vary as to interest rate, repayment period, and collateral requirements based on
the type of loan requested and the credit worthiness of the prospective borrower. Credit risk tends to be geographically concentrated in that the majority of the loan customers are located in the
markets served by the Company.

NOTE 4COMMITMENTS AND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE-SHEET RISK
The Bank is party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These
financial instruments include commitments to
extend credit and standby letters of credit which, to varying degrees, involve elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet.
The
Bank's exposure to credit loss on commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit in the event of nonperformance by the customer, is represented by the contractual
amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as for on-balance-sheet instruments.
A
summary of the contract amounts of the Company's exposure to off-balance-sheet risk is as follows:

Commitments
to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed
expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the commitment amounts do not
necessarilly represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer's credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained is based on management's credit
evaluation of the customer.
Standby
letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of
credit is essentially
7
the
same as that involved in extending loan commitments to customers. Most of the Company's standby letters of credit are expected to expire without being drawn upon.
The
Company and its subsidiary are involved in litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. The resolution of these matters is not expected, either individually or in the
aggregate, to have a material effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.
NOTE 5COMMON STOCK
On January 13, 2000, the Company's Board of Directors approved a resolution to increase the number of authorized common stock shares from
5,500,000 shares to 10,000,000 shares. Such resolution was approved by stockholders at the March 9, 2000 annual meeting.
The
Company's Board of Directors also approved a 5-for-4 stock split to be effected in the form of a 25% stock dividend to common stockholders of record as of March 23, 2000
with a payable date of April 6, 2000. Per share data for the period ended March 31, 1999 has been restated to give effect to the stock split.

FIRST NATIONAL BANCORP, INC.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following presents management's discussion and analysis of the results of operations and financial condition of the First National Bancorp, Inc.
(the "Company") as of the dates and for the periods indicated. This discussion is intended to be read in conjunction with the Company's interim condensed consolidated financial statements and notes
thereto.
The
statements contained in this management's discussion and analysis that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements subject to the safe harbor created by the Private
Securities Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe future plans, strategies and expectations of the Company, are generally identifiable by
use of the words "believe," "expect," "intend," "anticipate," "estimate," "project" or similar expressions. The Company's ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies
is inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse affect on the operations and future prospects of the Company and the subsidiary include, but are not limited to, changes in:
interest rates, general economic conditions, legislative and regulatory, monetary and fiscal policies of the U.S. Government, including policies of the U.S. Treasury and the Federal
Reserve Board, the quality or composition of the loan or securities portfolios, demand for loan products, deposit flows, competition, demand for financial services in the Company's market area, and
accounting principles, policies and guidelines, our implementation of new technologies, our ability to develop and maintain secure and reliable electronic systems. These risks and uncertainties should
be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. Further information concerning the Company and its business, including additional
factors that could materially affect the Company's financial results, is included in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Total assets decreased $37,077,000 or 3.65% to $977,763,000 as of March 31, 2000, compared to December 31, 1999. During the first three months of
2000, net loans decreased $10,516,000, down 1.80% from December 31, 1999. Deposits decreased $3,229,000 during the first three months of 2000, down .40% from December 31, 1999.
Stockholders' Equity increased $1,745,000 up 2.00% from December 31, 1999.
At
March 31, 2000, earning assets were $905,064,000, a decrease of $19,980,000 or 2.16% from $925,044,000 at December 31, 1999. Average earning assets for the three
months ended March 31, 2000 were $916,193,000, an increase of $97,558,000 or 11.92% from the same period in 1999, primarily due to an increase of $44,511,000 in the average loan portfolio, an
increase of $40,565,000 in average securities and an increase of $12,482,000 in average federal funds sold.
Interest-bearing
liabilities were $734,628,000 at March 31, 2000, a decrease of $38,279,000 or 4.95%, from $772,907,000 at December 31, 1999. The decrease was primarily
due to a 3.61% decrease in time deposits and a decrease of 32.16% in short-term borrowings as a result of fluctuations in the balances of seasonal public funds. These decreases were offset by an
increase of 4.29% in savings accounts.
Average
interest-bearing liabilities for the three months ended March 31, 2000 were $751,347,000, an increase of $85,997,000, or 12.93% from 1999. The increase was primarily
due to a 7.49% increase in interest-bearing deposits and a 78.29% increase in short-term borrowings.
9
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
For the three months ended March 31, 2000, the Company earned $3,005,000 or $.99 per share as compared to $2,959,000 or $.98 per share for the same
period in 1999. On a percentage basis, net income for the first quarter of 2000 increased by 1.55% over 1999. The Company's annualized return on average assets for the three months ended
March 31, 2000 was 1.23% versus 1.34% for the same period in 1999. Annualized return on average equity was 13.70% for the first quarter of 2000 compared to 14.46% for the first quarter of 1999.
NET INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income, the difference between total interest earned on earning assets and total interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities, is the
Company's principal source of income. Net interest income is influenced by changes in the volume and yield on earning assets as well as changes in the volume and rates paid on interest-bearing
liabilities. The Company attempts to favorably impact net interest income through investment decisions and monitoring interest rates offered to customers, particularly rates for time deposits and
short-term borrowings.
On
a tax equivalent basis (35% income tax rate), the Company's net interest income expressed as a percentage of average interest earning assets was 4.25% for the three months ended
March 31, 2000, as compared to 4.54% for the same period in 1999.
For
the three months ending March 31, 2000, the yield on earning assets remained the same at 7.48% and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased 31 basis points to
4.08% as compared to the same period in 1999. The increase in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities is due primarily to an increase in the interest rates paid on those funds.
Tax
equivalent net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2000, increased $508,000 or 5.54% compared to the same period in 1999. The increase in the volume of
earning assets net of interest-bearing liabilities produced $1,319,000 of the net interest income increase while changes in interest rates decreased income by $811,000.
NONINTEREST INCOME
Noninterest income consists primarily of service charges on deposit accounts and trust fees. Total noninterest income was $1,822,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 2000, an increase of $51,000, or 2.88%, from the same period in 1999. The ratio of noninterest income to income before taxes was 40.31% and 39.48% for the three months ended
March 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively.
The
noninterest income increase of $51,000 was primarily attributable to an increase of $107,000 in trust fees, an increase of $18,000 in gains on the sale of other real estate, and
an increase of $25,000 in service charges on deposit accounts. These increases are offset in part by a decrease in net securities gains of $27,000 and a decrease of $69,000 in gains on the sale of
loans.
NONINTEREST EXPENSE
Noninterest expense increased $384,000, or 6.60%, to $6,203,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000 as compared to $5,819,000 in 1999.

Salaries
and employee benefits increased by $224,000 or 6.80% in 2000. The increase is attributable to general pay increases and increases in health insurance costs and retirement
plan costs. Salaries and benefits represented the largest category of noninterest expense, accounting for 57.00% of total noninterest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999.
The Company's number of full-time equivalent employees at March 31, 2000 was 366, compared to 384 at December 31, 1999 and 359 at March 31, 1999.
Occupancy
and equipment expense increased 8.86% due in part to the opening of two branches in the second half of 1999. Growth in the volume of loan and deposit accounts contributed to
higher data processing expense in 2000. FDIC insurance and bank examination assessments increased 33.82% due to changes made by the FDIC in how insured institutions will be assessed fees, resulting in
higher costs for all banks.
NONPERFORMING LOANS
Nonperforming loans are comprised of those loans on which interest income is not being accrued and other loans which are contractually in arrears as to
principal or interest for ninety days or more.
As
of March 31, 2000, the Company's nonperforming loans were $2,263,000 or .39% of total loans compared to $1,494,000 or .25% of total loans at December 31, 1999. The
increase is attributable to increases of $796,000 and $93,000 in commercial and residential nonperforming real estate loans offset in part by a decrease of $175,000 in nonperforming agricultural
loans. Impaired loans amounted to $1,994,000 at March 31, 2000 and $1,076,000 at December 31, 1999.
ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
The allowance is an amount that management believes will be adequate to absorb probable losses on existing loans that may become uncollectible, based on
evaluations of the collectibility of loans and prior loan loss experience. This evaluation also takes into consideration such factors as changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio quality,
review of specific problem loans and current economic conditions that may affect the borrower's ability to pay.
The
allowance for loan losses increased $230,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2000 to $6,100,000, which represented 1.05% of total loans. At December 31,
1999, the allowance for loan losses represented .99% of total loans.
11
CAPITAL RESOURCES
Stockholders' equity was $89,010,000 at March 31, 2000, an increase of $1,745,000, or 2.00% over December 31, 1999. At March 31, 2000,
stockholders' equity represented 9.10% of total assets compared to 8.60% at December 31, 1999.
Under
rules adopted by federal bank regulatory agencies, bank holding companies and financial institutions are subject to "risk based" capital measurements. These regulations
establish minimum levels for risk-based Tier 1 Capital and Total Capital ratios and the leverage ratio. The parent company (on a consolidated basis) and its subsidiary bank currently are
considered "well capitalized" and exceed the capital requirements established by federal bank regulatory agencies.
The
Company's consolidated actual capital ratios at March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999 are summarized below:

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Beginning January 1, 2001, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (Statement) 133 on derivatives will require all derivatives to be recorded
at fair value in the balance sheet. Unless designated as hedges, changes in these fair values will be recored in the income statement. Fair value changes involving hedges will generally be recorded by
offsetting gains and losses on the hedge and on the hedged item, even if the fair value of the hedged item is not otherwise recorded. Since the Company has no significant derivative instruments or
hedging activities, adoption of Statement 133 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial statements, but the effect will depend on derivative holdings when this
standard applies.
YEAR 2000
The Company tested its critical systems for the century date change and no significant problems were encountered. The Company also developed a business
resumption plan to address any potential problems arising with the century date change. The century date change has not affected any of the Company's critical or non-critical systems. All costs
incurred relating to the Year 2000 have had no material impact on the Company's financial condition. The Company does not anticipate incurring any material costs in the future relating to the Year
2000 issue.

RECENT REGULATORY DEVELOPMENTS
On November 12, 1999, President Clinton signed legislation that will allow bank holding companies to engage in a wider range of nonbanking activities,
including greater authority to engage in securities and insurance activities. Under the Gramm-Leach-Bailey Act (the "Act"), a bank holding company that elects to become a financial holding company may
engage in any activity that the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve"), in consultation with the Secretary of the Treasury, determines by regulation or order is
financial in nature, incidental to any such financial activity, or complementary to any such financial activity and does not pose a substantial risk to the safety or soundness of depository
institutions or the financial system generally. The Act specifies certain activities that are deemed to be financial in nature, including lending, exchanging, transferring, investing for others, or
safeguarding money or securities; underwriting and selling insurance; providing financial, investment, or economic advisory services; underwriting, dealing in or making a market in, securities; and
any activity currently permitted for bank holding companies by the Federal Reserve under section 4(c)(8) of the Bank Holding Company Act. A bank holding company may elect to be treated as
a financial holding company only if all depository instituion subsidiaries of the holding company are well-capitalized, well-managed and have at least a satisfactory rating under the Community
Reinvestment Act.
National
banks are also authorized by the Act to engage, through "financial subsidiaries," in any activity that is permissible for financial holding companies (as described above) and
any activity that the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Federal Reserve, determines is financial in nature or incidental to any such financial activity, except (i) insurance
underwriting, (ii) real estate development or real estate investment activities (unless otherwise permitted by law), (iii) insurance company portfolio investments and
(iv) merchant banking. The authority of a national bank to invest in a financial subsidiary is subject to a number of conditions, including, among other things, requirements that the bank must
be well-managed and well-capitalized (after deducting from capital the bank's outstanding investments in financial subsidiaries). The Act provides that state banks may invest in financial subsidiaries
(assuming they have the requisite investment authority under applicable state law) subject to the same conditions that apply to national banks.
Various
bank regulatory agencies have begun issuing regulations as mandated by the Act. The Federal Reserve has issued an interim regulation establishing procedures for bank holding
companies to elect to become financial holding companies. In addition, the Federal Reserve has issued interim regulations listing the financial activities permissible for financial holding companies
and describing the parameters under which financial holding companies may engage in securities and merchant banking activities. The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency has issued a regulation
regarding the parameters under which national banks may establish and maintain financial subsidiaries. In addition, all federal bank regulatory agencies have jointly issued a proposed regulation that
would implement the privacy provisions of the Act. At this time, it is not possible to predict the impact the Act and its implementing regulations may have on the Company. As of the date of this
filing, the Company has not applied for or received approval to operate as a financial holding company. In addition, the Bank has not applied for or received approval to establish financial
subsidiaries.

FIRST NATIONAL BANCORP, INC.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Company does not engage in foreign currency transactions, forward position or futures contracts, options, swaps or other types of complex financial
instruments, nor does it engage in trading account activities. Thus, market risk is primarilly limited to the interest rate risks associated with the investing, lending, customer deposit taking and
borrowing activities of its banking subsidiary. The Company's exposure to interest rate risk results primarily from changes in either the short-term U.S. prime interest rate and/or the rates offered
for short and medium term bonds and notes of the U.S. Treasury. The following tables present the interest rate sensitivity and expected maturities of securities, fixed rate loans, time
deposits, short-term borrowings and long-term debt as of March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999.
