NOTE 1 - Basis of Presentation
The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of First
Banking Center, Inc. and its subsidiary (the "Company"). In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments)
necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of
operation and cash flows for the interim periods have been made. The results of
operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal year.
The unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and
industry practice. Certain information in footnote disclosure normally included
in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America and industry practice has
been condensed or omitted pursuant to rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission. These financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
included in the Company's December 31, 2001 audited financial statements.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make
estimates and assumptions which affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date
of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of income and
expenses during the reported periods. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
FIRST BANKING CENTER, INC AND SUBSIDIARY
MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
As of June 30, 2002
The following discussion provides additional analysis of the financial condition
and results of operations of the Company for the six months ended June 30, 2002.
This discussion focuses on the significant factors that affected the Company's
earnings so far in 2002, with comparisons to 2001. As of June 30, 2002, First
Banking Center (the "Bank") was the only direct subsidiary of the Company and
its operations contributed nearly all of the revenue for the year. The Company
provides various support functions for the Bank and receives payment from the
Bank for these services. These intercompany payments are eliminated for the
purpose of these consolidated financial statements. The Bank has two wholly
owned subsidiaries, FBC Financial Services, Corp., a brokerage and financial
services subsidiary, and FBC-Burlington, Inc., an investment subsidiary located
in Nevada.
Overview
As of June 30, 2002, total Company assets were $458.7 million decreasing 3.6%
from $475.8 million as of December 31, 2001. Total income, as of June 30, 2002,
was $3.3 million or $2.24 per share, increasing 25.8% from $2.6 million or $1.78
per share in 2001. The significant items resulting in the above-mentioned
results are discussed below.
Financial Condition
Loans
Loans outstanding were $362.0 million and $366.1 million on June 30, 2002 and
December 31, 2001 respectively. This represents a decrease of $4.1 million or
1.1%. The decrease is due to the sale of residential real estate loans. The
following table summarizes the changes to date in the major loan
classifications.
As a % of Total Loans
Change
June 30, December 31, in June 30, December 31,
2002 2001 Balance 2002 2001
--------------------------------------- -----------------------------
(Dollars in millions)
Residential Real Estate $155.0 $160.7 ($5.7) 43.7% 43.9%
Commercial Real Estate $90.0 $90.7 ($0.7) 25.4% 24.8%
Construction and Land Development $45.8 $43.6 $2.2 12.9% 11.9%
Commercial $24.3 $27.5 ($3.2) 6.9% 7.5%
Allowance for Loan Losses
The allowance for possible loan losses was $4.5 million or 1.3% of gross loans
on June 30, 2002, compared with $4.4 million or 1.2% of gross loans on December
31, 2001. Net charge-offs were $6 thousand or .002% of gross loans, compared to
net charge-offs of $60 thousand or .016% of gross loans for December 31, 2001.
The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses
charged to expense. Loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses when
management believes that the collectibility of the principal is unlikely. The
allowance for loan losses is adequate to cover probable credit losses relating
to specifically identified loans, as well as probable credit losses inherent in
the balance of the loan portfolio. In accordance with FASB Statements 5 and 114,
the allowance is provided for losses that have been incurred as of the balance
sheet date. The allowance is based on past events and current economic
conditions, and does not include the effects of expected losses on specific
loans or groups of loans that are related to future events or expected changes
in economic conditions. Management reviews a calculation of the allowance for
loan losses on a quarterly basis. While management uses the best information
available to make its evaluation, future adjustments to the allowance may be
necessary if there are significant changes in economic conditions. Impaired
loans are measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows
discounted at the loan's effective interest rate or, as a practical expedient,
at the loan's observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the
loan is collateral dependent. A loan is impaired when it is probable the
creditor will be unable to collect all contractual principal and interest
payments due in accordance with the terms of the loan agreement.
In addition, various regulatory agencies periodically review the allowance for
loan losses. These agencies may require the bank to make additions to the
allowance for loan losses based on their judgments of collectibility based on
information available to them at the time of their examination.
As of June 30, 2002, $180 thousand was charged to current earnings and added to
the allowance for loan losses.
Non-accrual, Past Due and Renegotiated Loans
June 30, December 31,
2002 2001
-----------------------------------
(Dollars in thousands)
Non-accrual Loans (a) $1,725 $1,541
Past Due 90 days + 0 0
Restructured Loans 0 0
The policy of the Company is to place a loan on non-accrual status if: (a)
payment in full of interest and principal is not expected, or (b) principal or
interest has been in default for a period of 90 days or more unless the
obligation is both in the process of collection and well secured. Well secured
is defined as collateral with sufficient market value to repay principal and all
accrued interest. A debt is in the process of collection if collection of the
debt is proceeding in due course either through legal action, including
judgement enforcement procedures, or in appropriate circumstances, through
collection efforts not involving legal action which are reasonably expected to
result in repayment of the dept or in its restoration to current status. The
non-accrual loans consisted primarily of $1.3 million of residential real estate
loans, $318 thousand of commercial loans, and $96 thousand of agricultural
loans. On June 30, 2002, the ratio of non-accrual loans to the allowance for
loan losses was 38.0% compared to 35.3% on December 31, 2001.
As of June 30, 2002, the Company had loans totaling $27,182,000 in addition to
those listed as non-accrual, past due or renegotiated that were identified by
the Banks' internal asset rating systems as classified assets and loans which
management has determined require additional monitoring. This represents a
decrease of $871,000 or 3.1% from December 31, 2001. Management is not aware of
any significant loans, group of loans or segments of the loan portfolio not
included above, where full collectibility cannot reasonably be expected.
Management has committed resources and is focusing on efforts designed to
control the amount of classified assets. The company does not have a substantial
portion of its loans concentrated in one or a few industries nor does it have
any foreign loans outstanding as of June 30, 2002. The company's loans are
concentrated geographically in the Wisconsin counties of Racine, Walworth,
Kenosha, Lafayette and Green.
Investments securities - Available for Sale
For the purposes of this discussion, investment security balances are based on
amortized costs. The securities available-for-sale portfolio increased $274
thousand or .5% from December 31, 2001. The increase came from three areas of
the portfolio. The Company purchased $3.6 million of municipal securities and
had $565 thousand mature. U.S. Government Agency securities declined $1.4
million and municipalities declined $925 thousand due to the call features
exercised by various Government Agencies. The Company purchased $28.5 million of
U.S. Government Agency Discount Notes and had $20.5 million of U.S. Government
Agency Discount Notes mature. The Company, also, sold $7.1 million of U.S.
Government Agency Discount Notes. These Discount Notes are used as collateral
for the Company's sweep repurchase accounts.
Deposits and Borrowed Funds
Total deposits and borrowed funds were $409.6 million on June 30, 2002 compared
to $429.5 million on December 31, 2001. This is a decrease of $19.9 million or
4.6%. The decrease is due to decreased borrowed funds. The following table
summarizes the changes in the major classifications of deposits and borrowed
funds.
June 30, December 31, Change in
2002 2001 Balance
--------------------------------------- ------------
(Dollars in millions)
Money Market and Savings $138.9 $134.6 $4.3
Demand Deposits $59.0 $66.6 ($7.6)
Time Deposits less than $100,000 $86.4 $87.2 ($0.8)
Time Deposits equal or greater than $100,000 $43.7 $33.7 $10.0
Securities sold under agreement to repurchase $21.5 $26.0 ($4.5)
Federal Home Loan Borrowings $34.9 $47.3 ($12.4)
Capital resources
As of June 30, 2002, the Company's stockholders' equity increased $3.2 million
or 7.6%. Net income of $3.3 million was the primary reasons for the increase in
equity. The company has purchased $179 thousand of treasury stock so far in
2002. Accumulated other comprehensive income increased $534 thousand to $1.1
million.
In December 1990, the Federal Reserve Board's risk-based guidelines became
effective. Under these guidelines capital is measured against the Company's
subsidiary bank's risk-weighted assets. The Company's tier 1 capital (common
stockholders' equity less goodwill) to risk-weighted assets was 12.1% at June
30, 2002, well above the 4% minimum required. Total capital to risk-adjusted
assets was 13.3%, also well above the 8% minimum requirement. The leverage ratio
was at 9.6% compared to the 4% minimum requirement. According to FDIC capital
guidelines, the Company's subsidiary bank is considered to be "well
capitalized."
Asset/liability management
The principal function of asset/liability management is to manage the balance
sheet mix, maturities, repricing characteristics and pricing components to
provide an adequate and stable net interest margin with an acceptable level of
risk over time and through interest rate cycles.
Interest-sensitive assets and liabilities are those that are subject to
repricing within a specific relevant time horizon. The Bank measures
interest-sensitive assets and liabilities, and their relationship with each
other at terms of immediate, quarterly intervals up to 1 year, and over 1 year.
Changes in net interest income, other than volume related, arise when interest
rates on assets reprice in a time frame or interest rate environment that is
different from the repricing period for liabilities. Changes in net interest
income also arise from changes in the mix of interest earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities.
The Bank's strategy with respect to asset/liability management is to maximize
net interest income while limiting its exposure to a potential downward
movement. Strategy is implemented by the Bank's management, which takes action
based upon its analysis of the Bank's present positioning, its desired future
positioning, economic forecasts, and its goals. It is the Bank's desire to
maintain a cumulative GAP of positive or negative 15% of rate sensitive assets
at the 1-year time frame. The current percentage is a positive 19%, which
compares to a positive 17% as of December 31, 2001.
Liquidity
Liquidity measures the ability of First Banking Center to meet maturing
obligations and its existing commitments, to withstand fluctuations in deposit
levels, to fund its operations, and to provide for customers' credit needs. One
source of liquidity is cash and short-term assets, such as interest-bearing
deposits in other banks and federal funds sold, which totaled $19.9 million at
June 30, 2002, compared with $33.0 million at December 31, 2001. The Bank has a
variety of sources of short-term liquidity available to it, including federal
funds purchased from correspondent banks, sales of securities available for
sale, FHLB advances, lines of credit and loan participations or sales. First
Banking Center also generates liquidity from the regular principal payments and
prepayments made on its portfolio of loans and mortgage-backed securities. The
liquidity of First Banking Center is comprised of three primary classifications:
cash flows from operating activities, cash flows from investing activities, and
cash flows from financing activities. Net cash provided by operating activities
was $7.9 million. Net cash provided by investing activities was $3.3 million.
Net cash used in financing activities was $20.5 million, as of June 30, 2002.
As of June 30, 2001, net cash provided by operating activities was $91 thousand.
Net cash used in investing activities was $11.5 million. Net cash used in
financing activities was $5.1 million.
Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices
The consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America, which require the measurement of financial position
and operating results in terms of historical dollar amounts without considering
the changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to
inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of First
Banking Center's operations. Unlike industrial companies, nearly all of the
assets and liabilities of First Banking Center are monetary in nature. As a
result, interest rates have a greater impact on First Banking Center's
performance than do the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates
do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the price
of goods and services.
Forward Looking Statements- Safe Harbor Statement under the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995
This report contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. First Banking Center intends such
forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for
forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Reform Act of
1995, and is including this statement for purposes of these safe harbor
provisions. Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions
and describe First Banking Center's future plans, strategies and expectations
are generally identifiable by use of the words "believe," "expect," "intend,"
"anticipate," "estimate," "project" or similar expressions. First Banking
Center'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 First Banking Center's operations and future prospects include, but
are not limited to, changes in: interest rates, general economic conditions,
legislative/regulatory changes, 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 investment portfolios, demand
for loan products, deposit flows, competition, demand for financial services in
our market area, our implementation of new technologies, First Banking Center's
ability to develop and maintain secure and reliable electronic systems and
accounting principles, policies and guidelines. These risks and uncertainties
should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance
should not be placed on such statements.
Current Accounting Developments
In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement 141,
Business Combinations and Statement 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.
Statement 141 eliminates the pooling method for accounting for business
combinations; requires that intangible assets that meet certain criteria be
reported separately from goodwill; and requires negative goodwill arising from a
business combination to be recorded as an extraordinary gain. Statement 142
eliminates the amortization of goodwill and other intangibles that are
determined to have an indefinite life; and requires, at a minimum, annual
impairment tests for goodwill and other intangible assets that are determined to
have an indefinite life. For the Company, the provisions of Statement 142 became
effective January 1, 2002 and did not have a material impact on the Company's
financial statements.
The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued Statement 143, Accounting
for Asset Retirement Obligations and Statement 144, Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. Statement 143 requires that the
fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in
the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be
made. The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the
carrying amount of the long-lived asset. Statement 144 supersedes FASB Statement
121 and the accounting and reporting provisions of APB Opinion No. 30. Statement
144 establishes a single accounting model for long-lived assets to be disposed
of by sale which includes measuring a long-lived asset classified as held for
sale at the lower of its carrying amount or its fair value less costs to sell
and to cease depreciation/amortization. For the Company, the provision of
Statement 143 is effective January 1, 2003. Implementation of this Statement is
not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.
For the Company, the provisions of Statement 144 became effective January 1,
2002 and did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.
Results of operations
Net Interest Income
Net interest income is the difference between interest income and fees on loans
and interest expense, and is the largest contributing factor to net income for
the Company. All discussions of rate are on a tax-equivalent basis, which
accounts for income earned on securities that are not fully subject to federal
taxes. Net interest income was $9.8 million and $8.8 million for June 30, 2002
and June 30, 2001 respectively. Net interest income as a percentage of average
earning assets (net interest margin) was 4.79% and 4.80% for the six months
ended 2002 and 2001 respectively.
The following table summarizes the changes and reasons for the changes in
interest income and fees on loans during 2002 and 2001. The decrease in interest
income and fees on loans as of June 30, 2002 was due to decreased yields on
earning assets. The increase in interest income and fees on loans as of June 30,
2001 was due primarily to increased average earning assets.

The following table summarizes the changes and reasons for the changes in
interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001. As of June 30,
2002 average balances outstanding increased, however, rates paid for liabilities
decreased causing a decrease in interest expense. The increase in interest
expense as of June 30, 2001 was a result of average balances outstanding
increasing.

The major component of interest income and fees on loans is the income generated
by loans. The table below summarizes the income, average balance and yield on
loans for 2002 and 2001.

The major components of interest expense are interest paid on Certificates of
Deposit (Time Deposits) and on Money Market Deposits. The tables below summarize
the expense, average balance and rates on these components for 2002 and 2001.
The decrease in interest expense on Time Deposits was a result of an increase in
average balances, while rates paid decreased from 4.8% to 2.9%, as of June 30,
2002. The decrease in interest expense on Money Market Deposits was a result of
an increase in average balances, while rates paid decreased from 4.5% to 1.4%,
as of June 30, 2002.

Non-interest income
Non-interest income increased $358 thousand or 22.7% as of June 30, 2002. The
increase came in primarily two areas. Service charges on deposit accounts
increased $172 thousand as the number of accounts grew and charges for some
services were increased. Other income increased $186 thousand due to brokerage
services, visa debit card income, and miscellaneous investment income.
Non-interest expense
Non-interest expense increased $404 thousand or 6% as of June 30, 2002. Salaries
and benefits accounted for $362 thousand. The increase in salaries and benefits
is due to normal wage increases and increased health insurance costs. Equipment
expense increased $77 thousand due primarily to increases in repair and
maintenance. Data processing costs increased $78 thousand due to increased
volumes and additional services used. Other expenses decreased $128 thousand.
This is the result of cost control management.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
First Banking Center, like other financial institutions, is subject to direct
and indirect market risk. Direct market risk exists from changes in interest
rates. First Banking Center's net income is dependent on its net interest
income. Net interest income is susceptible to interest rate risk to the degree
that interest-bearing liabilities mature or reprice on a different basis than
interest-earning assets. When interest-bearing liabilities mature or reprice
more quickly than interest-earning assets in a given period, a significant
increase in market rates of interest could adversely affect net interest income.
Similarly, when interest-earning assets mature or reprice more quickly than
interest-bearing liabilities, falling interest rates could result in a decrease
in net income.
In an attempt to manage its exposure to changes in interest rates, management
monitors First Banking Center's interest rate risk. The Asset/Liability
Committee meets quarterly to review First Banking Center's interest rate risk
position and profitability, and to make or recommend adjustments for
consideration by the Board of Directors. Management also reviews the Bank's
securities portfolio, formulates investment strategies, and oversees the timing
and implementation of transactions to assure attainment of the Board's
objectives in the most effective manner. Notwithstanding First Banking Center's
interest rate risk management activities, the potential for changing interest
rates is an uncertainty that can have an adverse effect on net income.
In adjusting First Banking Center's asset/liability position, the Board and
management attempt to manage First Banking Center's interest rate risk while
maintaining or enhancing net interest margins. At times, depending on the level
of general interest rates, the relationship between long-term and short-term
interest rates, market conditions and competitive factors, the Board and
management may decide to increase First Banking Center's interest rate risk
position somewhat in order to increase its net interest margin. First Banking
Center's results of operations and net portfolio values remain vulnerable to
increases in interest rates and to fluctuations in the difference between
long-term and short-term interest rates.
One approach used to quantify interest rate risk is the net portfolio value
("NPV") analysis. In essence, this analysis calculates the difference between
the present value of liabilities and the present value of expected cash flows
from assets and off-balance-sheet contracts. The most recent NPV analysis, as of
June 30, 2002, projects that net portfolio value would decrease by approximately
2.71% if interest rates would rise 200 basis points and would decrease by
approximately 1.17% if interest rates would rise 100 basis points over the next
year. It projects an increase in net portfolio value of approximately 4.94% if
interest rates would drop 200 basis points and approximately 2.37% if interest
rates would drop 100 basis points. Both simulations are within board-established
policy limits. The Company has not experienced any material changes to its
market risk position since December 31, 2001, as disclosed in the Company's 2001
Form 10K Annual Report. First Banking Center's policy is to limit the effect of
a 200 basis point rate shock to plus or minus 20% of projected net interest
income and to minus 35% of the market value of portfolio equity.
First Banking Center does not currently engage in trading activities or use
derivative instruments to control interest rate risk. Even though such
activities may be permitted with the approval of the Board of Directors, First
Banking Center does not intend to engage in such activities in the immediate
future.
Interest rate risk is the most significant market risk affecting First Banking
Center. Other types of market risk, such as foreign currency exchange rate risk
and commodity price risk, do not arise in the normal course of First Banking
Center's business activities.
