See Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. 18 FIFTH THIRD BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING AND REPORTING POLICIES The following is a summary of the significant policies: BASIS OF PRESENTATION The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Fifth Third Bancorp (Bancorp) and its subsidiaries. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Certain prior period data has been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. SECURITIES Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 115, ''Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities'' requires securities to be classified as held to maturity, available for sale or trading. Only those securities classified as held to maturity are reported at amortized cost, with those available for sale and trading reported at fair value with unrealized gains and losses included in stockholders' equity or income, respectively. The Bancorp adopted this Statement effective December 31, 1993. Prior to 1993, all securities were classified in a single portfolio accounted for at amortized cost. Securities gains or losses are shown separately as other operating income in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method. LOANS Residential mortgage loans held for sale are valued at the lower of aggregate cost or market value and were $174,314,000 and $58,049,000 at December 31, 1993 and 1992, respectively. SFAS No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan'' requires that impaired loans be measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate or the fair value of the underlying collateral. SFAS No. 114 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1994 and, although not yet quantified, the effect on the Consolidated Financial Statements is not expected to be material. RESERVE FOR CREDIT LOSSES The reserve is maintained at a level management considers to be adequate to absorb potential loan and lease losses. Credit losses are charged and recoveries are credited to the reserve. Provisions for credit losses are charged to operating expenses and are based on management's review of the historical credit loss experience and such other factors which, in management's judgment, deserve recognition under existing economic conditions in estimating potential credit losses. BANK PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT Bank premises and equipment, including leasehold improvements, are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Amortization of leasehold improvements is computed on the straight-line method over the lives of the related leases or useful lives of the related assets, whichever is shorter. Maintenance, repairs and minor improvements are charged to operating expenses as incurred. INTANGIBLE ASSETS Goodwill and other intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis generally over a period of 15 years. REVENUE RECOGNITION Interest income on loans is based on the principal balance outstanding, with the exception of interest on discount basis loans which is computed using a method which approximates the interest method. The accrual of interest for commercial, construction and mortgage loans is discontinued when there is a clear indication that the borrower's cash flow may not be sufficient to meet payments as they become due. Such loans are also placed on nonaccrual status when principal or interest is past due ninety days or more, unless the loan is well secured and in the process of collection. Loan origination and commitment fees and certain direct loan origination costs are deferred and the net amount amortized over the estimated life of the related loans or commitments as a yield adjustment. Income on direct financing leases is recognized on a basis to achieve a constant periodic rate of return on the outstanding investment. Income on leveraged leases is recognized on a basis to achieve a constant rate of return on the outstanding investment in the lease, net of the related deferred tax liability, in the years in which the net investment is positive. Trust income is recognized on the accrual basis. NET INCOME PER SHARE Net income per share is calculated by dividing net income for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The assumed conversion of convertible subordinated notes and the exercise of stock options would not have a materially dilutive effect. OTHER Securities and other property held by the Trust Division of the banking subsidiaries in a fiduciary or agency capacity are not included in the Consolidated Balance Sheets since such items are not assets of the banks.

In determining the actuarial present value of the projected benefit obligation, the weighted average discount rate was 7.25% in 1993 and 7.75% in 1992, and the rate of increase in future compensation levels was 5.5% in both years. The expected long-term rate of return on retirement plan assets was 9.0% in 1993 and in 1992.

At December 31, 1993 and 1992, the projected benefit obligations under this nonqualified plan were $5,479,000 and $1,596,000, respectively. Pension costs for the plan were $433,000 in 1993, $335,000 in 1992 and $287,000 in 1991. The Bancorp has a profit sharing plan covering substantially all regular full-time employees. The contribution to the plan is an amount determined annually by the Board of Directors and was $15,400,000 for 1993, $14,560,000 for 1992 and $11,550,000 for 1991. NOTE 13--COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES The Bancorp is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers in Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana. These financial instruments primarily include commitments to extend credit, letters of credit and foreign exchange forward contracts and involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The contract amounts of these instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Bancorp has in particular classes of financial instruments. Creditworthiness for all instruments is evaluated on a case-by-case basis in 22 FIFTH THIRD BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS accordance with Bancorp credit policies. Collateral, if deemed necessary, is based on management's credit evaluation of the counterparty and may include business assets of commercial borrowers as well as personal property and real estate of individual borrowers or guarantors. A summary of significant commitments at December 31: - -------------------------------------------------------- Contract Amount ---------------------- ($000's) 1993 1992 - -------------------------------------------------------- Commitments to extend credit . $3,449,185 3,397,531 Letters of credit (including standby letters of credit) . 416,702 356,810 Forward contracts: Foreign exchange--buy and sell 161,237 94,929 Other commitments to sell . 106,000 -- - -------------------------------------------------------- Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend. The Bancorp's credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party is represented by the contractual amount. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Letters of credit, which totalled $17,712,000 at December 31, 1993, are issued to commercial customers for a duration of one year or less to facilitate trade payments in domestic and foreign transactions. Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. At December 31, 1993, approximately $213,981,000 of standby letters of credit will expire within one year, $142,658,000 expire between one to five years and $42,351,000 expire thereafter. The Bancorp's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party for letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount. Forward contracts are contracts for future delivery of foreign currency or residential mortgage loans at a specified price or yield. Risks arise from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from any resultant exposure to movement in foreign exchange rates and interest rates, rather than from loss of the notional principal or contract amount. The Bancorp reduces its market risk for foreign exchange forward contracts by entering into offsetting contracts. There are claims pending against the Bancorp and its subsidiaries. Based on a review of such litigation with legal counsel, management believes that any resulting liability would not have a material effect upon the Bancorp's consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In January, 1994, the Bancorp entered into a merger agreement with The Cumberland Federal Bancorporation, Inc., a savings and loan holding company with $1.1 billion in assets headquartered in Louisville, Kentucky. This transaction is expected to be completed in mid-1994, will be accounted for as a pooling of interests and is subject to approval by shareholders and appropriate regulatory agencies. NOTE 15--REGULATORY MATTERS The principal source of income and funds for the Bancorp (parent company) are dividends from the banking subsidiaries. During the year 1994, the amount of dividends that the banking subsidiaries can pay to the Bancorp without prior approval of bank regulatory agencies is limited to their 1994 eligible net profits, as defined, and $154,963,000, the adjusted retained 1993 and 1992 net income of the banking subsidiaries. The banks must maintain noninterest-bearing cash balances on reserve with the Federal Reserve Bank. In 1993 and 1992, the banks were required to maintain average reserve balances of $167,682,000 and $137,164,000, respectively. NOTE 16--RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS At December 31, 1993 and 1992, certain directors, executive officers, principal holders of Bancorp common stock and any associates of such persons were indebted to the banking subsidiaries in the aggregate amount of $171,493,000 and $112,608,000, respectively. During 1993, new loans aggregating $111,172,000 were made to such parties and loans aggregating $52,287,000 were repaid. Such indebtedness was incurred in the ordinary course of business on substantially the same terms as those prevailing at the time of comparable transactions with unrelated parties.

In addition, certain financial instruments and all non-financial instruments were excluded from the fair value disclosure requirements. Therefore, the fair values presented above should not be construed as the underlying value of the Bancorp. The following methods and assumptions were used in determining the fair value of selected financial instruments: Short-term financial assets and liabilities-for financial instruments with short or no stated maturity, prevailing market rates and limited credit risk, carrying amounts approximate fair value. Those financial instruments include cash and due from banks, other short-term investments, certain deposits (demand, interest checking, savings and money market), Federal funds borrowed and other short-term borrowings. Securities, available for sale and held to maturity-fair values were based on quoted market prices, dealer quotes and prices obtained from independent pricing services. Loans-fair values of loans were estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. Deposits-fair values for other time, certificates of deposit-$100,000 and over and foreign office were estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. Long-term debt and convertible subordinated notes-fair value of convertible subordinated notes was based on quoted market prices. Fair value of long-term debt was based on quoted market prices, when available, and a discounted cash flow calculation using prevailing market rates for borrowings of similar terms. Off-balance-sheet financial instruments-fair values of commitments to extend credit and letters of credit were based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements with similar remaining maturities. Fair values of forward contracts were estimated using quoted market prices of comparable instruments.

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companies' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Companies at December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1993 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. As discussed in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, the Bancorp changed its method of accounting for debt and equity securities effective December 31, 1993. /s/ Deloitte & Touche Cincinnati, Ohio January 14, 1994 25 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS In the following pages, Management discusses its analysis of the Bancorp's financial condition and results of operations in 1993 compared to prior years. The data presented in this discussion should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements on pages 15 to 25 of this report. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS SUMMARY Net income advanced in 1993 for the twentieth consecutive year. The Bancorp's net income to average assets, referred to as return on assets, has gradually increased for the last five years as has return on average stockholders' equity. The table below summarizes these measures: - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1993 1992 1991 1990 1989 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net Income ($000's)....... $196,447 164,092 138,150 120,411 108,318 Net income per share (a).. $ 3.28 2.75 2.33 2.05 1.86 Return on assets ......... 1.80% 1.74 1.68 1.64 1.62 Return on equity ......... 18.2% 17.3 16.6 16.2 16.5 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- <FN> (a) Per share amounts reflect the three-for-two stock splits effected in the form of stock dividends paid April 15, 1992 and January 13, 1990. NET INTEREST INCOME The largest source of the Bancorp's income is net interest income. Net interest income is the spread between income on interest-earning assets, such as loans and securities, and the interest expense on liabilities used to fund those assets, such as deposits and funds borrowed. Net interest income is affected by both changes in the level of interest rates and changes in the amount and composition of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Changes in net interest income are frequently measured by two statistics--net interest margin and net interest rate spread. Net interest margin is expressed as net interest income divided by average earning assets. Net interest rate spread is the difference between the average rate earned on earning assets and the average rate incurred on interest-bearing liabilities. Both of these measures are reported on a taxable equivalent basis. Net interest margin is greater than net interest rate spread due to the interest income earned on assets funded by non-interest-bearing liabilities, primarily demand deposits and stockholders' equity.

All three of these measures are reported on a taxable equivalent basis. Nonaccrual loans have been included in the loan balances. The Bancorp's net interest income grew $45.4 million to $456.8 million in 1993, an increase of 11.0% over the $411.3 million earned during 1992. Net interest income grew by $60.0 million or 17.1% in 1992 over 1991. For 1993, the increase was attributable to an increase in average interest-earning assets, changes in earning asset mix and lower funding costs due to the overall lower interest rate environment. During 1993, average interest-earning assets grew $1.44 billion to $10.14 billion, up 16.5% over 1992. Most of this growth occurred in the retail loan and lease portfolios. Average loans and leases were up $1.57 billion or 23.7% over 1992 and represented 80.8% of total average interest-earning assets as compared to 76.0% for 1992. The shift from shorter-term investments to higher yielding loans and leases positively impacted net interest income. Average interest-earning asset growth in 1992 consisted primarily of a $956.8 million or 16.9% increase in average loans and leases and a $225.2 million or 14.5% increase in average taxable securities. Average interest-bearing liabilities grew $1.16 billion to $8.35 billion in 1993, up 16.1% over 1992, including higher interest-bearing deposit growth, up $848.8 million or 14.2% over 1992. Overall interest expense declined despite higher balances due to continued repricing downward of deposit rates. The net interest margin declined to 4.51% in 1993, down 22 basis points (bp) (a basis point is equivalent to .01%) from 4.73% in 1992. This decline resulted from the reduced impact of free funding sources and from long-term interest rates falling faster than short-term interest rates. Although free funding (average non-interest-bearing sources) increased during 1993, lower average yields reduced their favorable impact on net interest margin, providing 61 bp in 1993 versus 72 bp in 1992. The net interest margin increased 15 bp during 1992 over 1991, due in large part to a 183 bp decline in funding costs. The decline in funding costs was attributable to dramatic decreases in overall deposit rates as well as the issuance of long-term financing. - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1991 1990 1989 - ------------------------------- ------------------------------- ------------------------------- Average Average Average Average Average Average Out- Revenue/ Yield/ Out- Revenue/ Yield/ Out- Revenue/ Yield/ standing Cost Rate standing Cost Rate standing Cost Rate - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- $5,659,608 $571,985 10.11% $5,250,014 $579,632 11.04% $4,805,763 $549,230 11.43% 1,550,389 127,026 8.19 1,029,449 87,955 8.54 899,438 73,765 8.20 204,329 18,216 8.92 161,943 15,610 9.64 157,296 16,581 10.54 255,154 15,397 6.03 315,985 26,076 8.25 264,174 23,233 8.79 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7,669,480 732,624 9.55 6,757,391 709,273 10.50 6,126,671 662,809 10.82 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 369,998 383,148 368,845 296,380 287,887 254,622 ( 88,867) ( 82,836) ( 72,830) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- $8,246,991 $7,345,590 $6,677,308 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- $ 763,561 31,275 4.10 $ 665,265 31,217 4.69 $ 573,292 26,974 4.71 346,698 15,460 4.46 362,443 17,732 4.89 397,005 19,480 4.91 1,217,193 60,837 5.00 1,117,560 71,762 6.42 1,011,737 67,901 6.71 2,355,902 171,441 7.28 2,064,217 167,855 8.13 1,674,374 135,734 8.11 876,369 57,021 6.51 935,769 75,921 8.11 889,802 78,938 8.87 13,079 756 5.78 2,313 187 8.08 5,596 526 9.40 298,923 16,760 5.61 166,788 13,323 7.99 200,057 18,173 9.08 467,937 26,110 5.58 294,525 23,219 7.88 282,378 25,486 9.03 13,552 1,620 11.95 14,081 1,710 12.14 12,876 1,529 11.87 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 6,353,214 381,280 6.00 5,622,961 402,926 7.17 5,047,117 374,741 7.42 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 890,162 823,186 816,564 169,524 155,951 157,247 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7,412,900 6,602,098 6,020,928 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 834,091 743,492 656,380 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- $8,246,991 $7,345,590 $6,677,308 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- $351,344 4.58% $306,347 4.53% $288,068 4.70% - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3.55% 3.33% 3.40% - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 82.84% 83.21% 82.38% - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 27 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS TABLE 2.--ANALYSIS OF NET INTEREST INCOME CHANGES (TAXABLE EQUIVALENT BASIS) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1993 Compared to 1992 1992 Compared to 1991 ------------------------------------ ----------------------------------------- ($000's) Volume Yield/Rate Mix Total Volume Yield/Rate Mix Total - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Increase (Decrease) in Interest Income Loans and Leases . . . . . . . . . . . . $134,955 $(62,930) $(14,937) $57,088 $96,697 $( 85,640) $(14,478) $( 3,421) Securities Taxable . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Table 2 shows the income impact of balance sheet changes and changes in interest rate levels which occurred during 1993 and 1992. The increase in net interest income during 1993 was due primarily to the increase in average interest-earning assets in excess of the increase in average interest-bearing liabilities offset by the lower overall interest rates. The increase in net interest income during 1992 was due almost entirely to the increase in average interest-earning assets in excess of the increase in average interest-bearing liabilities, as the changes in interest rates were offset by changes in the balance sheet mix. OTHER OPERATING INCOME The table below shows the components of other operating income for the five years ending December 31, 1993. Total other operating income excluding securities gains and losses has increased over 10% each year during this five-year period, up 10.8% in 1993 over 1992 and up 18.4% in 1992 over 1991. Trust income totalled $50,603,000 in 1993, an increase of 7.6% over 1992's $47,033,000. During 1992, trust income increased 16.8% over 1991. Both increases can be attributed to the increase in the market value of total assets under care (both managed or in custody), with market value increases of 6.7% in 1993 and 11.3% in 1992, fueled by our customers' increased interest in alternative investment options such as mutual funds. Service charges on deposits totalled $55,468,000 in 1993 and $49,856,000 in 1992, up 11.3% and 19.6% over 1992 and 1991, respectively. Contributing to these increases were the escalating numbers of customer accounts, due in part to deposit purchases from Savings of America, First National Bank of Dayton and World Savings and Loan Association in 1993 and Chase Bank of Ohio in 1992 and the acquisitions of First Federal Savings and Loan Association of Lima and Pinnacle Bancorp, Inc. in 1992. The acquisition of The TriState Bancorp in December, 1993 occurred too late in the year to have an impact. Data processing income in 1993 totalled $53,582,000, an increase of 16.9% over 1992's $45,842,000. The past two years' increases of over 12% have been due to several factors, including higher automated teller machine transaction - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ($000's) 1993 1992 1991 1990 1989 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Trust income ...................... $ 50,603 47,033 40,263 34,428 31,599 Service charges on deposits ....... 55,468 49,856 41,673 35,013 28,297 Data processing income ............ 53,582 45,842 40,601 34,830 29,856 Other service charges and fees .... 60,433 55,851 45,221 40,646 34,342 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Subtotal .......................... 220,086 198,582 167,758 144,917 124,094 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Securities gains (losses) ......... 6,492 1,471 4,153 ( 52) 757 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Total ............................. $226,578 200,053 171,911 144,865 124,851 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ After-tax securities gains (losses) $ 4,213 1,002 2,735 ( 117) 508 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 28 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS processsing with the addition of 40 new member institutions in 1993 and growth in credit card and retail merchant activity. Other service charges and fees in 1993 were $60,433,000, an increase of 8.2% over 1992. Mortgage banking fee income, which includes servicing fee income, gains on sales of residential mortgage loans and other mortgage loan fees, increased $9,755,000 or 99.0% over 1992. At December 31, 1993, the Bancorp was servicing $3.5 billion in residential mortgage loans. Consumer loan fees were also up, $1,620,000 or 18.7% over 1992, consistent with the increase in average consumer loan balances. Other service charges and fees in 1992 totalled $55,851,000, an increase of $10,630,000 or 23.5% over 1991. Included in this increase is mortgage banking fee income, increasing $3,920,000 or 66.0%. Another component of the increase was a $1,104,000 gain on the sale of Fifth Third Travel, Inc. OPERATING EXPENSES The Bancorp's profitability levels over the last several years have been achieved in large part due to successful expense control. Contributing factors include efficient staffing, a comprehensive budgeting process and centralization of various internal functions such as data processing and loan operations. One measure of this success is the overhead ratio (operating expenses divided by the sum of taxable equivalent net interest income and other operating income). This ratio, at or under 50%, has remained well below peer group ratios over the past five years. Total operating expenses for 1993 were up 11.8% over 1992, and 1992 was up 15.8% over 1991. Banking Center growth over the last two years, with the addition of 40 locations in 1993 and 23 locations in 1992 through acquisitions and other expansion, has impacted all categories of expenses. The table below shows the dollar amounts and the components of other operating expenses for the last five years. Salaries, wages and employee benefits, which comprised 47.2% and 47.5% of total operating expenses in 1993 and 1992, respectively, increased 11.0% in 1993 and 13.3% in 1992 over the previous year. Climbing costs of employee benefits including medical insurance, payroll taxes and profit sharing were augmented by an increase of 359 full-time equivalent (FTE) employees during 1993 and 420 during 1992. The Bancorp's productivity ratios (average earning assets and net income per FTE employee), which measure the degree of efficiency of our employees, have shown continued improvement since 1988. Average earning assets per employee has increased 61% since 1988, while net income per employee has increased 66%. Equipment and net occupancy expenses increased 9.4% in 1993 and 10.3% in 1992. Increased rental property costs, utilities and real estate taxes, due in part to the expanded number of locations, and increased expenses such as depreciation associated with the purchase of the remaining interest in Fifth Third Center in 1993, contributed to the higher expenditures. Other operating expenses of $133,368,000 in 1993 were up 13.5% over 1992. Contributing factors to this increase were FDIC insurance, up $1,091,000 or 6.8% and marketing and communications expenses, up $2,136,000 or 11.0%. The effect on deferred taxes of the increase in statutory tax rates during 1993 was $1,039,000. Other real estate owned expenses were $802,000 in 1993, $1,707,000 in 1992 and $629,000 in 1991. Other operating expenses of $117,541,000 in 1992 increased 20.6% over 1991. FDIC insurance was up $2,726,000 or 20.3% over 1991. Other contributors to the increase were increased communication charges related to data processing income, increased postage expenses and the generally expanded volume of Bancorp activities. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ($000's) 1993 1992 1991 1990 1989 ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Salaries and wages . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $119,046 107,816 95,718 88,981 83,543 Employee benefits . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 33,578 29,732 25,652 23,223 21,104 Equipment expenses . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 14,173 13,354 12,256 12,608 13,935 Net occupancy expenses . . . . . . . . . . . . . 23,222 20,833 18,729 15,341 12,866 Other operating expenses . . . . . . . . . . . . 133,368 117,541 97,437 83,171 76,079 ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Total . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $323,387 289,276 249,792 223,324 207,527 ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ There are three bar graphs at the bottom of the page which are based on the information in the following tables: ($ in millions) 1988 1989 1990 1991 1992 1993 Other operating income $106.9 $124.9 $144.9 $171.9 $200.1 $226.6 <FN> Five Year Growth Rate: 16.2% 1988 1989 1990 1991 1992 1993 Growth in Net Income Per Employee 100% 116% 125% 139% 150% 166% <FN> 1988 Base Year = 100 1988 1989 1990 1991 1992 1993 Fifth Third 49.4 50.3 49.5 47.7 47.3 47.3 Peer Group 64.3 64.1 66.1 63.9 62.6 -- 29 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FINANCIAL CONDITION SECURITIES The investment portfolio is comprised largely of fixed and floating rate mortgage related securities, predominantly underwritten to the standards of and guaranteed by the government sponsored agencies of FHLMC and FNMA. These securities differ primarily from traditional debt securities in that they have uncertain maturity dates and are priced based on estimated prepayment rates on the underlying mortgages. We have estimated the average life of the portfolio at 3.5 years based on current prepayment expectations. During 1993 and 1992, the Bancorp securitized $291,586,000 and $120,813,000 fixed and adjustable rate residential mortgages, respectively. These securitizations are a means to improve liquidity ratios, reduce the reserve for credit loss requirement and increase risk-based capital ratios. This activity is expected to continue in 1994.

Installment loans increased $342,000,000 or 23.6% and consumer leases increased $326,000,000 or 82.5%. Although leasing has become a popular alternative means of automobile financing, the current low-interest rate environment has enabled installment lending to remain strong. Consumer mortgages continued to grow, up $223,000,000 or 11.5% in 1993; however, excluding the securitization and transfer to securities of $291,586,000 and $120,813,000 of mortgages in 1993 and 1992, respectively, consumer mortgages actually rose 19.2% over 1992. This growth was aided by the acquisition of The Tristate Bancorp, which contributed approximately $189,000,000 in outstandings. Commercial loans and leases were up 11.8% in 1993. Commercial leasing was a notable contributor, up $66,000,000 or 28.0% over 1992. Commercial mortgages also showed solid growth, up 27.8% over 1992, and consisted primarily of credits located within our primary market areas of Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana. Commercial mortgages consist principally of owner-occupied commercial mortgages, loans on properties occupied by the principal borrower. In 1992, robust gains in consumer mortgages and consumer leases led the portfolio with growth of 80.7% and 100.5% over 1991, respectively. Consumer mortgage growth was aided by acquisitions which contributed approximately $200,000,000 in outstandings. PROVISION AND RESERVE FOR CREDIT LOSSES The Bancorp provides as an expense an amount which reflects expected credit losses. This provision is based on the growth of the loan and lease portfolio and on recent loss experience and is called the provision for credit losses in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Actual losses on loans and leases are charged against the reserve built up on the Consolidated Balance Sheets through the provision for credit losses. The amount of loans and leases actually removed as assets from the Consolidated Balance Sheets is referred to as charge-offs and, after netting out recoveries on previously charged-off assets, becomes net charge-offs. Net charge-offs have declined over the last three years, with 1993's $26,263,000 down 41.2% over 1992's $44,686,000, which had marked an 11.9% decrease over 1991. The provision for credit losses of $44,487,000 in 1993 was down from the $65,315,000 in 1992. The reserve for credit losses as a percent of loans and leases outstanding was 1.53% and 1.54% for December 31, 1993 and 1992, respectively. The table below presents credit loss data for the most recent five year period.

A summary of under-performing assets at December 31 follows: - --------------------------------------------------------------------- ($000's) 1993 1992 1991 - --------------------------------------------------------------------- Nonaccrual loans and leases .......... $15,709 29,273 65,253 Renegotiated loans and leases ........ 377 402 793 Other real estate owned .............. 8,049 23,826 31,490 - --------------------------------------------------------------------- Total nonperforming assets ........... 24,135 53,501 97,536 Ninety days past due loans and leases. 9,696 21,382 26,898 - --------------------------------------------------------------------- Total under-performing assets ........ $33,831 74,883 124,434 - --------------------------------------------------------------------- Nonperforming assets as a percent of total loans, leases and other real estate owned ................. .27% .71 1.67 Under-performing assets as a percent of total loans, leases and other real estate owned ....... .38% 1.00 2.13 - --------------------------------------------------------------------- Of the total under-performing assets at December 31, 1993, $23,240,000 is to borrowers or projects in the Cincinnati-Dayton market area, $1,495,000 in the Toledo market area, $3,585,000 in Columbus, $2,485,000 distributed in the market areas of our smaller affiliate banks and $3,026,000 outside of the Ohio-Kentucky-Indiana area. Of the total nonperforming assets at December 31, 1993, $14,825,000 or 61.4% was related to commercial real estate. Nonaccrual commercial real estate loans and leases were $7,394,000, a decrease of 58.8% from 1992's $17,937,000. At December 31, 1993 and 1992, there were no renegotiated commercial real estate loans and leases. Commercial other real estate owned decreased from $22,404,000 in 1992 to $7,431,000 in 1993, a decline of 66.8%. DEPOSITS Primarily core deposits are used to fund interest-earning assets. The deregulation of deposits has caused a change in the deposit mix of financial institutions as funds have flowed from non-interest-bearing deposits and passbook-type savings deposits into higher market rate deposits which earn interest at money market rates. The accompanying tables show the relative composition of the Bancorp's average deposits and the change in average deposit sources during the last five years. Other time deposits is comprised primarily of consumer certificates of deposit. The Company completed $568,574,000 in deposit acquisitions during the last two years ($290,857,000 in 1993 and $277,717,000 in 1992). Core deposit growth has been slower than previous years due to the low absolute rate levels. The Bancorp would expect these growth rates to increase as interest rates increase.

The Bancorp resells the funds or may retain a portion to fund short-term, rate-sensitive interest-earning asset growth. The increase in borrowed funds is in part a result of the Bancorp's strategy to shift large certificate of deposit customers into non-FDIC assessed products. As the following table of average funds borrowed and average Federal funds loaned indicates, the Bancorp was a net borrower of funds of $1,268,314,000 in 1993, up from $1,099,709,000 in 1992: - ------------------------------------------------------------------ ($000's) 1993 1992 1991 1990 1989 - ------------------------------------------------------------------ Federal funds borrowed and other short-term borrowings... $1,275,568 1,173,253 766,860 461,313 482,435 Federal funds loaned ..... $ 7,254 73,544 220,064 275,058 228,564 - ------------------------------------------------------------------ Net funds borrowed ... $1,268,314 1,099,709 546,796 186,255 253,871 - ------------------------------------------------------------------ 32 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS CAPITAL RESOURCES The Bancorp maintains a relatively high level of capital as a margin of safety for its depositors and stockholders. At December 31, 1993, stockholders' equity was $1,197,646,000 compared to $1,005,165,000 at December 31, 1992, an increase of $192,481,000 or 19.1%. This increase in capital resulted primarily from the retention of earnings. During 1990, the Federal Reserve Board adopted a minimum leverage ratio of 3.0% for bank holding companies. The Bancorp's leverage ratio (defined as stockholders' equity less unrealized gains on securities available for sale, goodwill and certain other intangibles divided by average quarterly assets) was 9.9% at December 31, 1993 and 9.5% at December 31, 1992, well above the Federal Reserve Board's ''well capitalized'' level of 5%. The Federal Reserve Board has adopted risk-based capital guidelines which assign risk weightings to assets and off-balance sheet items. The guidelines also define and set minimum capital requirements (risk-based capital ratios) which increased over a transition period ending in 1992. Under the final 1992 rules, all banks are required to have core capital (Tier 1) of at least 4.0% of risk-weighted assets and total capital of 8.0% of risk-weighted assets. Tier 1 capital consists principally of stockholders' equity less unrealized gains on securities available for sale, goodwill and certain other intangibles, while total capital consists of core capital, certain debt instruments and a portion of the reserve for credit losses. The guidelines also define well capitalized levels of Tier 1 and total capital as 6% and 10%, respectively. The Bancorp had Tier 1 capital ratios of 11.4% and 11.2% and total capital ratios of 13.8% and 14.1% for December 31, 1993 and 1992, respectively, computed using the final 1992 rules. The Bancorp and its affiliate banks had Tier 1 and total capital ratios above the well capitalized levels at December 31, 1993. The Federal Reserve Board has proposed regulations which would revise the current risk-based capital guidelines to include a measurement of interest rate risk. Based on an analysis of the Bancorp's current interest rate sensitivity, management feels there would be no adverse affects caused by the adoption of these new capital guidelines. The following table shows several capital and liquidity ratios for the last three years: - --------------------------------------------------------- 1993 1992 1991 - --------------------------------------------------------- Average stockholders' equity to Average assets . . . . . . 9.92% 10.07% 10.11% Average deposits . . . . . 13.38 13.47 12.91 Average loans and leases . 13.20 14.32 14.74 Risk-based capital ratio (a) Tier 1 . . . . . . . . . . 11.41 11.20 12.49 Total . . . . . . . . . . 13.82 14.12 13.74 - --------------------------------------------------------- <FN> (a) Based on year-end 1992 guidelines. LIQUIDITY AND INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY The objective of the Bancorp's Asset/Liability Management function is to maintain consistent growth in net interest income within the Bancorp's policy guidelines. This objective is accomplished through flexible management of the Bancorp's balance sheet liquidity and interest rate risk exposures due to changes in economic conditions, interest rate levels and customer preferences. The goal of liquidity management is to provide adequate funds to meet changes in loan demand or any potential unexpected deposit withdrawals. This goal is accomplished primarily by maintaining sufficient liquid assets along with consistent core deposit growth to fund earning assets and the availability of unused capacity to purchase funds in the national money markets. At year end 1993, the Bancorp had approximately $1.2 billion in securities and other short-term investments maturing within one year compared to $653 million at year end 1992. Additional asset liquidity is provided by the remainder of the securities portfolio and selected securitizable loan assets. The Bancorp has a practice of maintaining core deposits as the primary means of funding interest-earning assets. Average core deposits, defined as all deposits except certificates-$100,000 and over, fund approximately 73% of total average interest-earning assets at December 31, 1993. This, in addition to the Bancorp's 10% average equity capital base, serves as a stable funding base. The Bancorp has significant unused national money market funding capability. The Bancorp maintains A1+/P1 Standard & Poor's and Moody's ratings on its commercial paper and its lead bank, The Fifth Third Bank, in Cincinnati, Ohio, maintains an Aa2 Moody's rating for long-term deposits. The Bancorp's affiliate in Toledo, The Fifth Third Bank of Northwestern Ohio, N.A., maintains A1+ and AA- Standard and Poor's ratings on its short-term and long-term deposits, respectively. These ratings, along with capital ratios significantly above the current regulatory guidelines, provide the Bancorp additional liquidity. Management does not rely on any one source of liquidity and has managed these levels in response to other balance sheet factors. During 1993, the Bancorp accessed a new funding source to supplement its core deposit funding. The Bancorp, through one of its affiliate banks, issued $40,000,000 in notes payable to the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB). The notes mature quarterly beginning in 1994 and bear interest of 3.90% to 4.55%. The Bancorp expects to utilize the FHLB as an additional funding source for its affiliate banks in the future. The Bancorp employs a variety of measurement techniques to identify and manage its exposure to changing interest rates. The Bancorp uses simulation techniques which attempt to measure the net interest income volatility of changes in the level of interest rates, basic banking interest rate spreads, the shape of the yield curve and changing product growth patterns. The table which follows shows the Bancorp's interest rate sensitivity analysis for the year ended December 31, 1993. The assets and liabilities are distributed to reflect expected cash flows and are based on historical deposit rate relationships to changes in market interest over long-term rate changes. The Bancorp would anticipate very limited exposure to rising interest rates during 1994. 33 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS RATE SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS December 31, 1993 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Maturing or Repricing ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total Non-Rate 1-30 31-90 91-180 181-365 1 Year Sensitive & ($ in millions) Days Days Days Days & Under Over 1 Year Total - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Interest-Earning Assets Loans and leases . . . . . . . . . . $2,259 375 519 831 3,984 4,827 8,811 Securities available for sale . . . 64 120 239 388 811 5 816 Securities held to maturity . . . . 28 65 85 162 340 1,147 1,487 Other short-term investments . . . . 3 -- -- -- 3 -- 3 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total Interest-Earning Assets . . . . . 2,354 560 843 1,381 5,138 5,979 11,117 Other assets . . . . . . . . . . . . . -- -- -- -- -- 849 849 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total Assets . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2,354 560 843 1,381 5,138 6,828 11,966 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Interest-Bearing Liabilities Interest checking . . . . . . . . . 273 -- -- -- 273 1,092 1,365 Savings . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 122 -- -- -- 122 488 610 Money market . . . . . . . . . . . . 876 -- -- -- 876 584 1,460 Certificates-$100,000 and over . . . 268 112 55 27 462 13 475 Other time deposits . . . . . . . . 612 306 500 691 2,109 1,146 3,255 Federal funds borrowed . . . . . . . 1,032 -- -- -- 1,032 -- 1,032 Other short-term borrowings . . . . 522 19 15 15 571 -- 571 Long-term debt and convertible subordinated notes . . . . . . . . -- -- -- 100 100 183 283 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total Interest-Bearing Liabilities . . 3,705 437 570 833 5,545 3,506 9,051 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Demand deposits . . . . . . . . . . -- -- -- -- -- 1,463 1,463 Other liabilities . . . . . . . . . -- -- -- -- -- 254 254 Stockholders' equity . . . . . . . . -- -- -- -- -- 1,198 1,198 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total Liabilities and Stockholders' Equity 3,705 437 570 833 5,545 6,421 11,966 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rate Sensitivity Gap . . . . . . . . .
