PART I.
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
General
Capital Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) is a one-bank holding company with headquarters in Sylvania, Ohio. The Company was formed in July, 1988, for the purpose of owning and organizing Capital Bank, N.A. (the “Bank”), a national banking association which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
The Bank opened for business on August 24, 1989, with $12.4 million in equity capital contributed by the Company. As of December 31, 1999, the total assets of the Company were $989.2 million and equity capital was $86.1 million. At December 31, 1998, the total assets of the Company were $801.6 million and equity capital was $58.4 million.
The Bank has focused its business on the borrowing needs of corporate, executive and professional customers. It pursues a deposit gathering strategy of offering money market checking, savings accounts, and certificates of deposits at attractive rates to mid-sized and large depositors with an emphasis on minimizing the operating costs of obtaining these deposits. The bank has one facility and utilizes an extensive courier system to service its customers.
The Bank is located in Sylvania, Ohio, a suburban community northwest of Toledo, Ohio. In addition to drawing customers from Sylvania, the Bank also draws customers from Lucas and Wood counties in Ohio as well as southeast Michigan. The Bank has defined its market niche as serving small to mid-sized businesses, professionals and their families.
The Company owns its main office facility located at 5520 Monroe Street, Sylvania, Ohio through a wholly-owned subsidiary, CBNA Building Company.
Competition
The Bank’s primary competition for banking services comes from other financial institutions located in Lucas and Wood counties. There are currently 14 commercial banks and 5 savings and loans believed to be operating physical facilities in these counties. Many of these institutions are affiliates of companies which have significantly greater assets than the Bank. As of June 30, 1999 (the most recent date for which information is readily available), total deposits held by financial institutions in Lucas and Wood counties approximated $6.4 billion. The assets of the Bank have grown to $989.1 million as of December 31, 1999, from $12.4 million since its opening on August 24, 1989. The management of the Bank believes the primary reason for the Bank’s success in deposit and loan growth is tied directly to its niche orientation, and the fact that its products are delivered through highly personalized service, as well as being very competitive with other financial institutions in its market area.
Employees
As of December 31, 1999, the Company and the Bank had 128 employees on a full-time equivalent basis.
Regulation
The Company is a registered bank holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 (the “Banking Act”) as amended, and as such is subject to regulation by the Federal Reserve Board. A bank holding company is required to file with the Federal Reserve Board annual reports and other information regarding its business operations and those of its subsidiaries. A bank holding company and its subsidiary banks are also subject to examination by the Federal Reserve Board.
The Bank is regulated by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”) as a National Banking Association. Additionally, the Bank is regulated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (“FRS”) as a member of the Federal Reserve System. The regulatory agencies have the authority to regularly examine the Bank and the Bank is subject to the regulations promulgated by its supervisory agencies. In addition, the deposits of the Bank are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) and, therefore, the Bank is subject to FDIC regulations.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Company and the Bank from time to time become involved in such legal proceedings as are incurred in and incidental to the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, any losses resulting from such proceedings will not be material to the financial condition, liquidity, or results of operations of the Company or the Bank.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following narrative presents Management’s discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial position and results of operations for the past three years. The objective of this financial review is to enhance the reader’s understanding of the accompanying tables, consolidated financial statements, the related notes thereto, and statistical information presented elsewhere in this report.
The Company was organized in July 1988 and commenced banking operations in August 1989. The Company achieved profitable operations during 1990 and continued to experience significant growth in assets, deposits and profitability during the three years-ended December 31, 1999.
Management’s discussion and analysis may contain forward-looking statements that are provided to assist in the understanding of anticipated future financial performance. However, such performance involves risks and uncertainties that may cause results to differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements. See the section captioned “Forward-Looking Statements” for a full discussion of such factors.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net Interest Income
Net interest income, the difference between revenue generated from earning assets and the interest cost of funding those assets, is the Company’s primary source of earnings. Net interest income increased 22%, 16%, and 19% in 1999, 1998, and 1997, respectively. Table 1 is an analysis of factors affecting this change. Table 2 sets forth an analysis of the changes in interest earned and interest paid resulting from changes in volume and rates during each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 1999. Net interest margin (net interest income divided by average earning assets) was 3.43% for 1999, 3.45% for 1998, and 3.61% for 1997.
Average loans outstanding increased 26%, 23%, and 23% in 1999, 1998, and 1997, respectively. Average yield on these loans was 8.13%, 8.53%, and 8.88%, respectively. The changes in yield are reflective of the change in market rates and the refinancing opportunities available during these periods. Securities represented 23% of the total average earning assets of the Company during 1999, and the average yields were 6.41%, 6.47%, and 6.62% for 1999, 1998, and 1997, respectively. The changes in yield are due to changes in market rates and portfolio mix.
Average total interest bearing liabilities increased to $ 757 million in 1999 compared with $616 million in 1998 and $517 million in 1997. The average cost of interest bearing liabilities was 4.86%, 5.16%, and 5.23% for the same periods. The decrease in yield is a direct reflection of falling short and long term rates.
Provision for Credit Losses
The provision for credit losses was $2,310,000, $1,230,000, and $1,005,000 for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998, and 1997, respectively. The increase in the provision for credit losses in 1999 was due to the growth in the loan portfolio during the year. Total allowance for credit losses as a percentage of total loans outstanding at year end was 1.45%, 1.41%, and 1.48% for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998, and 1997, respectively.
Management maintains the allowance for credit losses at a level adequate to absorb losses inherent in the portfolio. The allowance for loan losses is the estimated amount which in the opinion of management will be adequate to absorb potential credit losses in the loan portfolio. The balance in the allowance is evaluated quarterly by management. The balance is determined by applying varied estimated loss rates to each loan type by credit quality classification. Additional allowance allocations are estimated for loan concentrations, loan to value considerations, portfolio seasoning and other factors. While management believes it uses the best information available to make evaluations, future adjustments to the allowance for loan losses may be necessary in circumstances that differ substantially from assumptions in making the evaluations.
6
Due to its focus on credit quality, the Company has experienced minimal problems with asset quality and loan charge offs. The Company has had a total of only $272,000 in charge offs since its inception in 1989, $20,000 of which were in 1999. The Company was able to operate four consecutive years, 1994 through 1997, without a loan charge off. Additional information regarding the provision and allowance for credit losses is contained in the “Earning Assets” narrative.

Other Income
Other income consists primarily of merchant fees, credit card and debit card interchange fees and service fees on deposit accounts. Total other income of approximately $2,232,000 for 1999 increased approximately $551,000 or 33% when compared to 1998. Total other income grew 39% in 1998 compared to 1997. Merchant and credit card interchange fees combined were approximately $1,142,000, $962,000, and $777,000 in 1999, 1998, and 1997, respectively. Service charges on deposit accounts were approximately $569,000, $395,000, and $313,000 in 1999, 1998, and 1997, respectively.
Other Expenses
Noninterest expense increased 18% in 1999 and 17% in 1998. The Company’s efficiency ratio, computed by dividing other expenses by net interest income plus other income, was 47.4% for 1999 and 49.2% for 1998. The Company’s low ratio is indicative of efficient overhead cost control from operating a single facility.
Salaries and benefits, which accounted for 53% in both 1999 and 1998 of noninterest expenses, increased by 19% in 1999 and 17% in 1998. Full-time equivalent employees increased 20% in 1999 and 9% in 1998. The increase in full-time equivalent employees was attributable to the growth in the Company’s balance sheet and earning assets. Management continues to control overhead expense without impairing the quality of service provided to customers. Operating from a single location has proven both efficient and effective. The Company’s total assets per employee approximated $7.7 million and $7.5 million at December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively; this compares very favorably to banks of similar asset size.
8
Occupancy and equipment expense increased by 28% in 1999 and 32% in 1998, due primarily to the increase in costs associated with hardware and software upgrades in both years, and increased real estate tax expense in 1999.
Provision for Federal Income Taxes
The Federal income tax expense was $4,608,000, $3,805,000, and $3,234,000 in 1999, 1998, and 1997, respectively. During each of these years, the Company realized tax savings from tax-free municipal bonds and from tax-exempt loans. The effective tax rate was 32.7%, 32.4%, and 32.3% in 1999, 1998, and 1997, respectively.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
The following discussions address key elements of financial condition, including earning assets, the sources of funds supporting earning assets, credit quality and experience, asset and liability management, and capital adequacy.
EARNING ASSETS
Loans
Loans comprised 76%, 73%, and 71% of the Company’s average earning assets in 1999, 1998, and 1997, respectively. Loans increased $144 million, or 25%, in 1999 reflecting both continued strong sales efforts and loan demand in the local market served by the Company. Similarly, loans increased 23% in both 1998 and 1997.
The commercial loan portfolio represents loans to business interests, located primarily within the Company’s defined market area, with no significant industry concentration. The residential real estate portfolio is primarily adjustable rate mortgages that qualify for sale into the secondary market; however, the Company has chosen to retain all residential mortgage loans in its portfolio.
Tables 3 and 4 show the composition of the loan portfolio at the end of each of the last five years and the loan maturities and rate sensitivity at December 31, 1999.

The Bank’s credit policy establishes guidelines to manage credit risk and asset quality. These guidelines include loan review and early identification of problem loans to ensure sound credit decisions. The Bank’s credit policies and procedures are meant to minimize the risk and uncertainties inherent in lending. In following these policies and procedures, management must rely on estimates, appraisals and evaluations of loans and the possibility that changes in these could occur quickly because of changing economic conditions.
Nonperforming assets consist of loans on nonaccrual and loans over 90-days past due as to principal and interest and still in an accrual status. Nonaccrual loans are loans which are 90-days past due and with respect to which, in management’s opinion, collection of interest is doubtful. These loans no longer accrue interest and are accounted for on a cash basis. Loans which are 90-days or more past due and still accruing interest are loans which, in management’s opinion, are well secured and are in the process of collection. Nonperforming loans amounted to $6,000, $570,000, $673,000, and $454,000 at December 31, 1999, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively, which consistently represent less than .15% of total loans for the same periods.
Potential problem loans are those loans which are on the Bank’s “Watch List” and exhibit characteristics that could cause the loans to become nonperforming or require restructuring in the future. Management reviews this list regularly and adjusts for changing conditions.

Securities
Securities available-for-sale are stated at fair value, with the unrealized gains and losses, net of income tax, reported as a separate component of shareholders’ equity. The unrealized loss recorded at December 31, 1999, approximated $3,887,000 (net of $2,002,000 in deferred income taxes); the unrealized gain recorded at December 31, 1998, approximated $2,014,000 (net of $1,040,000 in deferred income taxes); and the unrealized gain recorded at December 31, 1997, approximated $1,357,000 (net of $698,000 in deferred income taxes).
The securities available-for-sale (SAFS) portfolio at December 31, 1999, is composed primarily of U.S. Treasury (10.4%) and U.S. Government Agency Securities (71.8%). The remaining 17.8% is composed of certain other securities. The quality of this portfolio is 88% AAA rated bonds with an average adjusted maturity of 2.8 years. The SAFS portfolio represented 23% of total assets at December 31, 1999, and 23% at December 31, 1998.
The SAFS portfolio at December 31, 1999, includes securities issued by the State of Ohio and the State of Michigan with the following values:

Federal Funds Sold
Short-term federal funds sold are used to manage interest rate sensitivity and to meet liquidity needs. During 1999, 1998, and 1997, the average balance of these funds represented less than 2.0% of average total assets for the same periods. As the Bank has grown, the ability to manage daily liquidity needs has become stable and the use of daily federal funds sold has been maintained at a very manageable level.
Deferred Federal Income Taxes
Deferred federal income taxes represent a net asset of $4,701,000 at December 31, 1999. This amount is comprised primarily of deferred taxes relating to the nondeductible portion of the allowance for credit losses plus the unrealized losses on available-for-sale securities which total $3,324,000 and $2,002,000, respectively. Certain limits exist for deduction of the provision related to credit losses that exceeds actual experience. Because of the low level of loan charge offs, the Company’s tax deduction to date, has been minimal. Sufficient taxable income in prior years exists to realize the deferred tax assets that are recorded.
SOURCES OF FUNDS
Deposits
The Company’s major source of funds is from deposits. Total deposits grew $140 million, or 21%, in 1999 compared to $83 million, or 14% in 1998. Transaction accounts, money market accounts, savings accounts and certificates of deposit less than $100,000 grew $39 million in 1999. Certificates of deposit equal to or greater than $100,000 increased $101 million in 1999, which included $71 million from deposit brokers. The Company continued to have significant success in obtaining deposits from customers located within the market area. Growth of in-market deposits, however, has been exceeded by growth in earning assets which has necessitated the acquisition of funds through deposit brokers. As this market has matured, it has become a viable source of funding.
Average deposits increased 18% in 1999, 15% in 1998, and 23% in 1997. Table 10 is a summary of the average amount of, and the average rate paid on, each of the Bank’s deposit categories. Table 11 provides an analysis of maturities of certificates of deposit of $100,000 or more.

Other Borrowings
Other borrowings were $90 million, $72 million, and $30 million at December 31, 1999, 1998, and 1997, respectively.
Advances from The Federal Home Loan Bank represented approximately 54% of other borrowings at December 31, 1999. The remaining is composed of repurchase agreements, federal funds borrowings, and demand notes issued under the U.S. Treasury Tax and Loan Note program. Additional information regarding repurchase agreements is summarized below:

Capital Resources and Dividends
Shareholders’ equity is a stable, noninterest bearing source of funds which provides support for asset growth and is the primary component of capital. Shareholders’ equity at December 31, 1999, 1998, and 1997 was $86.1 million, $58.4 million, and $50.5 million, respectively.
The Company completed a stock offering in December 1999 and issued 900,000 additional shares of Common Stock at $27.00 per share. A three-for-one stock split was declared for shareholders of record as of June 30, 1999, payable July 15, 1999. The Company previously issued a 6% stock dividend in 1996 and 1995. The Company began paying cash dividends in 1997. Total dividends declared in 1999 were $2,091,968 and in 1998 were $1,745,339.

LIQUIDITY, INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY AND MARKET RISK
Liquidity
Liquidity is measured by the Company’s ability to raise funds through deposits, borrowed funds, capital or cash flow from the repayment of loans. These funds are used to meet deposit withdrawals, maintain reserve requirements, fund loans and operate the Company. Liquidity is achieved through the growth of deposits (both local and out-of-market) and liquid assets, including securities available-for-sale, matured securities and federal funds sold. Additional liquidity is provided by unused borrowing capacity. Asset and liability management is the process of managing the balance sheet to achieve a mix of earning assets and liabilities that maximizes profitability, while providing adequate liquidity.
The Company’s major source of funds is a substantial base of local deposits plus shareholders’ equity and other liabilities. The Company also has the ability to borrow money on a daily basis through correspondent banks and the Federal Home Loan Bank to satisfy short-term liquidity needs. At December 31, 1999 and 1998, the Company had $86.6 million and $24.3 million, respectively, of unused lines of credit. The Company’s available line of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank was $75.9 million at December 31, 1999. The Company currently holds $6.7 million in Federal Home Loan Bank stock.
In addition to normal loan funding and deposit flow, the Company also needs to maintain liquidity to meet the demands of certain unfunded loan commitments and standby letters of credit. As of December 31, 1999, the Company had a total of $287.9 million in unfunded loan commitments and $32.5 million in unfunded standby letters of credit. Of the total unfunded loan commitments, $248.9 million were commitments available as lines of credit to be drawn at any time as customers’ cash needs vary, and $39.0 million were for loan commitments scheduled to close and become funded within the next six months. The Company monitors fluctuations in balances and manages its overall liquidity, taking into account these unfunded commitments.
On a parent company basis, the Company’s primary source of funds is dividends paid by the subsidiary Bank. The ability of the Bank to pay dividends is subject to limitations under various laws and regulations and to prudent and sound banking principles. The amount of unrestricted retained earnings available to be paid by the Bank to the Company was approximately $9,121,000 at January 1, 2000.

Interest Rate Risk
Balance sheet structure and interest rate changes play important roles in the growth of net interest income. The Company seeks to manage its balance sheet in a way that enables it to maintain a relatively stable level of net interest income within the constraints of optimum earning asset mix, capital adequacy, liquidity and safety. The Company’s Asset/Liability Committee (ALCO) manages the overall rate sensitivity and mix of the balance sheet to anticipate and minimize the effects of interest rate fluctuations and maintain a consistent net interest margin. A number of measures are used to monitor and manage interest rate risk. An income simulation model is management’s primary tool used to assess the direction and magnitude of variations in net interest income resulting from changes in interest rates. Key assumptions in the model include prepayment speeds on various loan and investment assets; cash flows and maturities of financial instruments held for purposes other than trading; changes in market conditions, loan volumes, and pricing; deposit sensitivity; client preferences; and management’s financial capital plans. These assumptions are inherently uncertain, subject to fluctuation and revision in a dynamic environment and , as a result, the model cannot precisely estimate net interest income or exactly predict the impact of higher or lower interest rates on net interest income. Actual results will differ from simulated results due to timing, magnitude, and frequency of interest rate changes and changes in market conditions and management strategies, among other factors.
Results of simulations done as of December 31, 1999, suggest that the Company could expect net interest income to decrease by less than 1% (if interest rates gradually decline by 100 basis points over the next twelve months) and, to decrease by approximately 3% (if interest rates gradually increase by 100 basis points over the next twelve months) compared to net interest income assuming no change in interest rates. These variances in net interest income were well within the Company’s policy parameters established to manage such risk. In addition to changes in interest rates, the level of future net interest income is also dependent on a number of other variables, including the growth, composition and absolute levels of deposits, loans, and other earning assets and interest bearing liabilities, economic and competitive conditions, client preferences and other factors.
The relative measure of assets and liabilities that will mature or are scheduled to reprice within various time categories is known as “interest rate sensitivity gap” or GAP. Because the Company has more liabilities than assets repricing within one year at December 31, 1999, it has a negative GAP and is considered liability sensitive. In a rising-rate environment, this liability surplus would most likely detract from net interest income. In a declining-rate environment, the effect would most likely be favorable. Experience has shown that this generalization does not fully capture the true dynamics of interest rate changes since asset and liability rates do not adjust equally. Table 12, Interest Rate Sensitivity Analysis, shows as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, assets and liabilities which are maturing at various periods in time and which will be subject to repricing.
Year 2000
The Company completed its preparations in 1999 for the Year 2000 date change. This process addressed all systems, software, hardware, and infrastructure components. The process also addressed various third-party vendors and service providers to ensure that continued service was in place for core business activities. Furthermore, the process included the update of all of the Company’s contingency plans in the event that problems related to the Year 2000 date change arose. To date, the Company has not experienced any business disruptions or corruptions of its systems. The Company will continue to monitor its systems and third party relationships throughout 2000 to address unanticipated problems (which may include problems associated with non-Year 2000 compliant third parties and disruptions to the economy in general) and ensure that all processes continue to function properly.
Identifiable costs for the Year 2000 project incurred through year-end 1999 did not exceed $200,000. These costs incorporated not only incremental third-party expenses but also included the salary and benefit costs of employees who worked on the project. Additional costs to be incurred in 2000 for ongoing monitoring and support activities are not expected to be material.
Forward-Looking Statements
The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 was passed by Congress to encourage corporations to provide investors with information about its anticipated future financial performance, goals and strategies. The act provides a safe harbor for such disclosure, or in other words, protection from unwarranted litigation if actual results are not the same as management’s expectations.
The Company desires to provide its shareholders with sound information about past performance and future trends. Consequently, this report, including Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, contains forward-looking statements including certain plans, expectations, goals, and projections that are subject to numerous assumptions, risks, and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those contained in or implied by the Company’s statements due to a variety of factors including: changes in economic conditions; movements in interest rates; competitive pressures on product pricing and services; success and timing of business strategies; material unforeseen changes in the financial condition or results of operations of the Company’s customers; and the nature, extent, and timing of governmental actions and reforms. The management of the Company encourages readers of this report to understand forward-looking statements to be strategic objectives rather than absolute targets of performance.
