FIRST NATIONAL BANKSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES March 31, 1996 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) NOTE 1: First National Bankshares, Inc. (the Company) is a bank holding company whose principal subsidiary is the First National Bank of Houma (First National). NOTE 2: The Company adopted Statement of Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan," effective January 1, 1995. SFAS No. 114 requires the measurement of impaired loans be based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, or at the loan's observable market price or the fair value of its collateral. SFAS No. 114 does not apply to large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment. For the Company, loans collectively evaluated for impairment include all single family mortgage loans, loans to individuals for household, family and other consumer expenditures and commercial, industrial, and real estate loans under a certain dollar amount, excluding loans which have entered the workout process. The adoption of SFAS No. 114 did not result in additional provisions for losses due to the Company's continuing policy of measuring loan impairment based on methods prescribed in SFAS No. 114. 	The Company considers a loan to be impaired when, based upon current information and events, doubt exists that the Company will be able to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The Company's impaired loans within the scope of SFAS No. 114 include certain troubled debt restructurings, and performing and nonperforming major loans in which full payment of principal or interest is doubtful. 	The Company also adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 118, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan-Income Recognition and Disclosures", effective January 1, 1995. This Statement allows a creditor to use existing methods for recognizing interest income on impaired loans and thus the adoption of SFAS No. 114 did not result in any change in the amount of interest income reported. 	The Company's impaired loans amounted to approximately $2,243,000 and $3,148,000 at March 31, 1996 and December 31, 1995, respectively. The related allowance for these loans was $673,000 at March 31, 1996 and $494,000 at December 31, 1995. NOTE 3: The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements have been omitted. It is suggested that these interim statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the 1995 Annual Report on Form 10-K of First National Bankshares, Inc. 	In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the information shown have been included. 	The foregoing three months interim results of 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations of the full year 1996. FIRST NATIONAL BANKSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS INTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEW 	First National Bankshares, Inc. (the Company) is a bank holding company based in Houma, Louisiana operating a single active wholly-owned subsidiary, First National Bank of Houma (First National or the Bank). The Company is also the sole owner of an inactive subsidiary, First Export Corporation. The Company's business strategy is to provide quality, tailored financial products and services to retail and commercial customers in the southern parishes of Louisiana. 	The following discussion and analysis of operations for the quarter ending March 31, 1996 highlight the changes in financial position and results of operations of the Company. The financial position and results of operations for the period indicated were primarily attributable to the Bank which comprises the substantial majority of the assets and liabilities of the Company. Management's discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in this quarterly report. 	In late 1995, the Company discovered an error in the calculation of a reduction in the latter part of 1994 of the valuation allowance against the Company's deferred income tax asset. To correct the error, the Company restated its financial statements for the periods ending December 31, 1994, March 31, 1995, June 30, 1995, and September 30, 1995 and filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission an amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A and amended Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q/A for those periods to reflect the restated financial statements. For a discussion of the impact of the restatement and for restated financial statements for those periods, refer to the amended periodic filings for those periods. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Net Interest Income 	The Company's primary source of revenue is net interest income, which is the difference between interest income received on interest-earning assets and the interest expense paid on interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income after provision for possible loan losses was $2,191,000 in the first quarter of 1996, a 6.5 percent decrease over the same period in 1995. Net interest income was affected by changes in the amount and mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities referred to as "volume change." It was also affected by changes in yields on interest-earning assets and rates paid on interest-bearing deposits and short-term borrowings referred to as "rate change." Noninterest Income and Noninterest Expense 	Noninterest income before securities gains and losses increased $8,000 or 1.7 percent in the first quarter of 1996 as compared to the same period in 1995. This increase reflects increased fees for trust services, commissions, exchange and other fees. 	Noninterest expense in the first quarter of 1996 decreased approximately $170,000 or 8.7 percent when compared to the same period in 1995. The decrease was primarily attributable to a reduction in personnel costs, the result of an organizational restructuring process started in 1995, and a reduction in Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insurance premiums, a result of a decision by the FDIC in 1995 to reduce premiums for all well capitalized insured financial institutions. Net Income 	Consolidated income before income taxes for the three month period increased $25,000, or 2.9 percent. Consolidated net income for the same period increased $17,000 also a 2.9 percent increase. 	During the first quarter of 1996, the Company continued utilizing its net operating loss carryforwards and reduced deferred income tax assets by $278,000. The total provision for income taxes at March 31, 1996 was $300,000 as compared to $292,000 at March 31, 1995. BALANCE SHEET ANALYSIS Loan Portfolio 	The Company offers a wide variety of lending products to both commercial and consumer customers located within its target market. The Company also purchases loans from other financial institutions both within and outside of the target market area to enhance earning-asset yields and diversify the total loan portfolio. Interest rates charged for loans made by the Company vary with the degree of risk, the size and maturity of loans, the borrower's depository relationships with the Company and prevailing market interest rates. During the first quarter of 1996, loans decreased $2,913,000 or 2.7 percent from year-end 1995. Credit Risk Management and Asset Quality 	Nonperforming assets decreased $909,000 or 19.4 percent at March 31, 1996 as compared to December 31, 1995. Shown below is a schedule of the Company's nonperforming assets (in thousands): 	03-31-96 	12-31-95 Loans: 	 	 90 days or more past due, but still accruing interest 	 $ 59 	 $ 66 Renegotiated loans still accruing 	464 	479 Nonaccruing 	 2,243 	3,148 Total nonperforming loans 	2,766 	3,693 Other real estate and foreclosed property (net of reserves) 1,010 	 992 Total nonperforming assets 	 $3,776 	$4,685 	In addition to the nonperforming loans, the Company has identified certain loans which, although currently performing, have credit weaknesses such that doubt exists as to the borrower's future ability to comply with existing terms and conditions. At March 31, 1996 these loans totaled approximately $274,000. This represents a decrease of $162,000 or 37.2 percent from the $436,000 balance on December 31, 1995. Allowance for Possible Loan Losses 	Based on information available at March 31, 1996, management believes the allowance for possible loan losses of $2,231,000, which comprised 2.1 percent of total loans, is adequate as an allowance against possible future losses. The allowance for possible loan losses increased $89,000 or 4.2 percent from the 2.0 percent of total loans at December 31, 1995. This increase was primarily due to the decreased size of the loan portfolio, the recovery of losses previously charged off and the maintained quality of the existing loan portfolio. Investment Securities 	At March 31, 1996, investment securities totaled $83,318,000, a $6,052,000 or 7.8 percent increase over the $77,266,000 recorded at December 31, 1995. Securities classified available-for-sale increased $5,977,000 or 9.0 percent while securities classified as held-to-maturity incurred no significant change in book value. The increase in securities resulted from increases in liquidity from the pay downs of loans and a reduction in interest bearing balances due from financial institutions. Available-for-sale securities are recorded at market value with variances between market value and book value recognized as an adjustment to shareholder's equity. Held-to-maturity securities are recorded at book value. However, due to the transfer of securities between available-for-sale and held-to-maturity which occurred in 1994, certain unrealized losses attributable to the held-to-maturity portfolio are recorded in shareholder's equity as well. The impact on equity as a result of these unrealized losses reflects little change as of March 31, 1996 as compared to December 31, 1995. Deposits 	The Company primarily attracts deposits from local businesses and professionals, or governmental bodies, and through retail certificates of deposit, savings and checking accounts. Maintaining steady and growing levels of deposits is an important objective to the Company as part of an overall management program to obtain funding sources for earning assets and maintain adequate levels of liquidity. The Company did not have any brokered accounts during the first quarter of 1996 and 1995 due to the Company's policy not to purchase such accounts. The Company has no foreign deposits. 	Total deposits decreased $6,416,000 or 3.2 percent to $194,424,000 as of March 31, 1996, from $200,840,000 at December 31, 1995. Non interest bearing deposits decreased $2,151,000, or 7.0 percent, as of March 31, 1996 from year end 1995. Interest bearing deposits also experienced a decline of $4,265,000 or 2.5 percent for the same period. These expected decreases were primarily the result of decreases in public fund deposits resulting from year end 1995 property tax collections which were distributed to various government agencies in early January 1996 and seasonal fluctuations in each deposit category. Capital 	Shareholders' equity increased $494,000 to $17,497,000 at March 31, 1996 from December 31, 1995, due to earnings for the period of $596,000 less dividends declared. 	The Company and First National are subject to the regulatory risk-based capital guidelines. The applicable risk-based capital ratios are as follows: First National Bankshares, Inc. 	 03-31-96 	 12-31-95 Regulatory Minimums Tier 1 Capital/Risk Weighted Assets Ratio 	 14.97% 	 14.14% 	 4.00% Total Capital/Risk Weighted Assets Ratio 	 16.22% 	 15.39% 	 8.00% Leverage Ratio 	 8.03% 	 8.04% 	 3.00% First National Bank of Houma 	 03-31-96 	 12-31-95 	Regulatory Minimums Tier 1 Capital/Risk Weighted Assets Ratio 	 14.90% 	 14.02% 	 4.00% Total Capital/Risk Weighted Assets Ratio 	 16.15% 	 15.27% 	 8.00% Leverage Ratio 	 8.00% 	 7.98% 	 3.00% In January of 1996, the Company paid a dividend declared in December of 1995, of $.06 per common share. In February of 1996, the Company declared a dividend of $.07 per common share payable in April of 1996. As noted previously, shareholders' equity increased or decreased due to changes in the carrying value of investment securities classified as available-for-sale net of applicable income taxes. During the first quarter of 1996, there was little change in the unrealized loss amount as recorded at December 31, 1995. LIQUIDITY AND ASSET LIABILITY MANAGEMENT 	The Company has positioned itself to meet the demands of the changing economic conditions with a high ratio of net liquid assets to net liabilities. At year-end 1995, this ratio stood at 33.7 percent and on March 31, 1996, 36.1 percent. The Company has identified approximately $72,592,000 in securities which it classified as Available-for-Sale under the provisions of SFAS 115 "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" which are carried in the statement of condition at net realizable value. In management's opinion, these securities, in conjunction with other liquid assets and arranged borrowing lines with financial institutions is adequate to meet all potential funding needs of the Company. 	The Company recognizes the potential impact of earnings given changes in market interest rate conditions. This interest sensitivity is monitored closely by management. A schedule of the Company's interest sensitivity/GAP analysis follows: INTEREST SENSITIVITY/GAP ANALYSIS(in thousands) 	 	 	 	 	 March 31, 1996 	 INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY PERIOD 				 	0-3 Months 	4-12 Months 	1-5 Years 	Over 5 Years 	 TOTAL ASSETS: 	 	 	 	 	 Loans 	 $25,158 	$15,392 	$40,583 	$23,699 	$104,832 Investments 	 34,665 	23,745 	15,966 	8,942 	83,318 Other 	 4,739 	0 	0 	0 	4,739 Total assets $64,562 	$39,137 	$56,549 	$32,641 	$192,889 FUNDING SOURCES: 	 	 	 	 	 Interest-bearing deposits 	 $70,526 	 $34,162 	 $47,870 $13,332 	 $165,890 Short-term funds 	 2,992 	0 	0 	0 	2,992 Long-term debt 	0 	0 	0 	0 	0 Total funding sources 	$73,518 	$34,162 	$47,870 	$13,332 	$168,882 REPRICING/MATURITY GAP: 	 	 	 	 	 Period 	 $(8,956) 	$4,975 	$8,679 	$19,309 	 Cumulative 	$(8,956) 	($3,981) 	$4,698 	$24,007 	 Period gap/ total assets 	 (4.6%) 	 2.6% 	 4.5% 	 10.0% 	 Cumulative gap/ total assets 	 (4.6%) 	 (2.1%) 	 2.4% 12.4% 	 Amounts stated include only fixed and variable rate instruments in the balance sheet that are still accruing interest. Variable rate instruments are included in the next period in which they are subject to change in rate. The principal portion of scheduled payments on fixed rate instruments are included in the periods in which they become due or mature. Because changes in rates paid on interest-bearing demand deposits traditionally lag behind changes in rates on other instruments, only 50 percent of the balance of interest-bearing demand deposits is included in the first period and the remaining balance prorated to periods of one (1) year or greater.
