AND SUBSIDIARY Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) Note 1 - Basis of Preparation - ----------------------------- The accompanying unaudited financial statements were prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-QSB and therefore do not include all disclosures necessary for a complete presentation of the statements of financial condition, statements of income, statements of comprehensive income and statements of cash flow in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. However, all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the interim financial statements have been included. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The statement of income for the nine month period ended June 30, 2000 is not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the entire year. It is suggested that these unaudited financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for Quitman Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiary for the year ended September 30, 1999. Note 2 - Plan of Conversion - --------------------------- On October 14, 1997, the Bank's Board of Directors approved a plan ("Plan") to convert from a federally-chartered mutual savings bank to a federally-chartered stock savings bank subject to approval by the Bank's members. The Plan, which included formation of the holding company, Quitman Bancorp, Inc., was subject to approval by the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) and included the filing of a registration statement with the SEC. The conversion was completed on April 2, 1998. Actual conversion costs were accounted for as a reduction in gross proceeds. The Plan called for the common stock of the Bank to be purchased by the holding company and for the common stock of the holding company to be offered to various parties in an offering at a price of $10.00 per share. The stockholders of the holding company approved a proposed stock option plan and a proposed restricted stock plan at a meeting of the stockholders on April 13, 1999. Shares issued to directors and employees under these plans may be from authorized but unissued shares of common stock or they may be purchased in the open market. In the event that options or shares are issued under these plans, such issuances will be included in the earnings per share calculation; thus, the interests of existing stockholders would be diluted. The Bank may not declare or pay a cash dividend if the effect thereof would cause its net worth to be reduced below either the amounts required for the liquidation account discussed below or the regulatory capital requirements imposed by federal regulations. At the time of conversion, the Bank established a liquidation account (which is a memorandum account that does not appear on the balance sheet) in an amount equal to its retained income as reflected in the latest balance sheet used in the final conversion prospectus. The liquidation account will be maintained for the benefit of eligible account holders who continue to maintain their deposit accounts in the Bank after the conversion. In the event of a complete liquidation of the Bank (and only in such an event), eligible depositors who continue to maintain accounts shall be entitled to receive a distribution from the liquidation account before any liquidation may be made with respect to common stock. 9 Note 3 - Stock Repurchase - ------------------------- The Company has adopted a stock repurchase program that allows for the repurchase, from time to time, of up to 153,988 shares of common stock. Any shares repurchased may be used for general and other corporate purposes, including the issuance of shares upon the exercise of stock options. On December 9, 1999, the Company completed its stock repurchase program, having repurchased 153,988 shares of its common stock at a cost of $1,718,524.

(the "Company") may from time to time make written or oral "forward-looking statements" including statements contained in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (including this report on Form 10-QSB), in its reports to stockholders and in other communications by the Company, which are made in good faith by the Company pursuant to the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, such as statements of the Company's plans, objectives, expectations, estimates and intentions, that are subject to change based on various important factors (some of which are beyond the Company's control). The following factors, among others, could cause the Company's financial performance to differ materially from the plans, objectives, expectations, estimates and intentions expressed in forward-looking statements: the strength of the United States economy in general and the strength of the local economies in which the Company conducts operations; the effect of, and changes in, trade, monetary and fiscal policies and laws, including interest rate policies of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, inflation, interest rate and market and monetary fluctuations; the timely development of and acceptance of new products and services of the Company and the perceived overall value of these products and services by users, including the features, pricing and quality compared to competitors' products and services; the willingness of users to substitute competitors' products and services for the Company's products and services; the success of the Company in gaining regulatory approval of its products and services, when required; the impact of changes in financial services' laws and regulations (including laws concerning taxes, banking, securities and insurance); technological changes, acquisitions; changes in consumer spending and saving habits; and the success of the Company at managing the risks described above involved in the foregoing. The Company cautions that these important factors are not exclusive. The Company does not undertake to update any forward-looking statement, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time by or on behalf to the Company. Total assets increased by $6.4 million or 12.1% due primarily to the increase in loans resulting from funds received from increases in deposits and advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank. Total equity decreased by $166,911 as result of net income for the nine months ended June 30, 2000, changes in the unrealized gain or loss on available-for- sale securities, reduction of a loan to the Bank's employee stock ownership plan, and purchase of 26,698 shares of treasury stock at a cost of $280,252. Non-Performing Assets and Delinquencies - --------------------------------------- Loans accounted for on a non-accrual basis increased to $256,242 at June 30, 2000 from $228,113 at September 30, 1999. The increase was the result of nine loans being reclassified to performing loans and eleven loans being added to non-accrual. The allowance for loan losses was $428,200 at June 30, 2000. Comparison of the Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net Income. Net income decreased by $9,000 or 9.5% from net income of $94,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1999 to net income of $85,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2000. This decrease is primarily the result of reduced non-interest expense, a reduced income tax provision, and increased service charge income that were more than offset by a non-recurring gain on the sale of the Company's former offices. The annualized return on average assets decreased from .77% to .60% for the three months ended June 30, 1999 and 2000, respectively. 11 Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $14,000 or 3.3% from $436,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1999 to $450,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2000. The increase was primarily due to an increase in loans resulting from the increase in deposits and advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank. Interest Income. Interest income increased $161,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2000 compared to the same three months ended June 30, 1999. The increase in interest income was primarily due to an increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets. The average balance of interest-earning assets increased by 16.04%. This increase in average interest-earning assets added an additional $161,000 of interest income. The average yield on interest- earning assets was 8.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $147,000 from $553,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1999 to $700,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2000. The increase in interest expense was due to an increase in average interest-bearing liabilities of $7.2 million and a slight increase in the cost of funds of 39 basis points (100 basis points equals 1%). The average balances of deposits and advances from the Federal Home Loan bank increased by $7.2 million, from the three months ended June 30, 1999 to the three months ended June 30, 2000. Non-Interest Income. Non-interest income decreased by $65,000 primarily from a decrease in gain on sale of assets, of $84,000, off-set by an increase in service charges of $15,000 and miscellaneous income of $4,000. Non-Interest Expense. Non-interest expense decreased by $30,000 primarily due to decreased compensation and other personnel expense. Our compensation and other personnel expense decreased an aggregate of $26,000 between the periods as a result of decreased contributions to the Bank's Employee Stock Ownership Plan and Restricted Stock Plan. Other non-interest expenses decreased $4,000. Although no definite plans have been made, we are exploring whether to purchase land and construct a branch. We would likely hire experts or spend money before we commit to purchasing land or constructing a new branch. If we decided not to build a new branch, any money that we had spent up to that time would be a non- interest expense and would negatively affect our income. Non-interest expense has increased as a result of staffing and equipping of the new bank building opened in April 1999. We expect a reduction in net income (and possibly losses) compared to prior periods as a result of these expenses until the new building results in higher overall levels of loan and deposit activity to off-set the additional expenses. We believe this expansion should enhance shareholder value and hope that the decrease in earnings will not be as great following the end of fiscal year 2000. Our statement of beliefs concerning our expansion is a forward looking statement. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the "Act") provides protection to us in making certain forward looking statements that are accompanied by the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward looking statement. As with any expansion, if the new office or additional personnel do not ultimately result in increased loan and deposit activity and increased net income, these expenses would continue to have an adverse effect on net income past the end of year 2000. Our non-interest expense would further increase if we built the new branch discussed in the prior paragraph. Income Taxes. Income tax expense amounted to $71,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1999 compared to $45,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2000. This decrease is due to the gain on the sale of our former office facility and equipment during the three months ended June 30, 1999 not recurring in the three months ended June 30, 2000. 12 Comparison of the Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net Income. Net income decreased by $68,000 or 25.1% from net income of $270,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 1999 to net income of $202,000 for the same nine months of fiscal 2000. This decrease is primarily the result of the non-recurring gain on the sale of our old office facilities and equipment in the amount of $84,000 realized in the nine months ended June 30, 1999 and increased interest income, service charges, gain on sale of other real estate and other income that was partially offset by an increase in interest and non- interest expense. The annualized return on average assets decreased from .76% to .49% for the nine months ended June 30, 1999 and 2000, respectively. Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $91,000 or 7.2%, from $1,261,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 1999 to $1,352,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2000. The increase was primarily due to an increase in residential mortgages and consumer loans and partially offset by a moderate increase in the cost of funds. Interest Income. Interest income increased $459,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2000 compared to the nine months ended June 30, 1999. The increase in interest income was primarily attributable to an increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets. The average balance of interest-earning assets increased by 14%. This increase in average interest-earning assets added an additional $459,000 of interest income. The average yield on interest-earning assets increased moderately to 8.7% from 8.6% for the nine months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $368,000 from $1,615,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 1999 to $1,983,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2000. The increase in interest expense was attributable to an increase in the average interest-bearing liabilities of $8.1 million and an increase in the cost of funds of 6 basis points (100 basis points equals 1%). The average balances of deposits and advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank increased by $8.1 million from the nine months ended June 30, 1999 to the nine months ended June 30, 2000. Non-Interest Income. Non-interest income decreased by $17,000 primarily from a decrease in gain on sale of assets of $84,000 which was partially offset by an increase in service charges on deposit accounts of $52,000, gain on sale of other real estate of $6,000, insurance commissions of $2,000, other income $7,000. Non-Interest Expense. Non-interest expense increased by $168,000 primarily due to increased compensation and other personnel expense, furniture and equipment expense and other operating expenses. Our compensation and other personnel expense increased an aggregate of $88,000 between the periods as a result of year-end pay raises, our hiring of additional employees and contributions to the Bank's Restricted Stock Plan approved in April of 1999. Our occupancy and furniture and equipment expense increased an aggregate of $61,000 between the periods as a result of occupying and equiping our new bank building. Other non- interest expense increased an aggregate of $19,000. Our expenses have increased because of the cost associated with our Employee Stock Ownership Plan, Restricted Stock Plan, and Stock Option Plan, and the cost of being a public company. We also offered checking accounts and the use of an automated teller machine (an "ATM") to our customers during fiscal 1999. Our preparation cost for these products and the cost of soliciting checking account funds has also increased our expenses. We have not yet received sufficient checking account funds or other income to offset these additional costs. Although no definite plans have been made, we are exploring whether to purchase land and construct a branch. We would likely hire experts or spend money before we commit to purchasing land or constructing a new branch. If we decided not to build a new branch, any money that we had spent up to that time would be a non- interest expense and would negatively affect our income. 13 Non-interest expense has increased as a result of staffing and equipping of the new bank building opened in April 1999. We expect a reduction in net income (and possibly losses) compared to prior periods as a result of these expenses until the new building results in higher overall levels of loan and deposit activity to off-set the additional expenses. We believe this expansion should enhance shareholder value and hope that the decrease in earnings will not be as great following the end of year 2000. Our statement of beliefs concerning our expansion is a forward looking statement. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the "Act") provides protection to us in making certain forward looking statements that are accompanied by the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward looking statement. As with any expansion, if the new office or additional personnel do not ultimately result in increased loan and deposit activity and increased net income, these expenses would continue to have an adverse effect on net income past the end of year 2000. Our non-interest expense would further increase if we built the new branch discussed in the prior paragraph. Income Taxes. Income tax expense amounted to $169,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 1999 compared to $108,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2000. Liquidity and Capital Resources - ------------------------------- Management monitors our risk-based capital and leverage capital ratios in order to asses compliance with regulatory guidelines. At June 30, 2000, the Bank had tangible capital, leverage, and total risk-based capital of 10.80%, 10.80% and 16.65%, respectively, which exceeded the OTS's minimum requirements of 1.50%, 4.00% and 8.00%, respectively. Holders of the common stock of the Company are entitled to share ratably in dividends, if and when, declared by the Board of Directors of the Company, out of funds legally available therefor. Federal banking law provides that a savings bank may , by providing prior regulatory notice, generally pay dividends during a calendar year in an amount equal to net income for the calendar year plus retained net income for the preceding two years. Any amount in excess of that level requires prior regulatory approval from the Office of Thrift Supervision (the "OTS"). The OTS may disapprove any dividend if the Bank is undercapitalized or the dividend would render the Bank undercapitalized. The OTS may also disapprove any dividend for, among other reasons, safety and soundness concerns. Also, the Bank may not pay a dividend if the payment would cause its net worth to be reduced below the amount required for the liquidation account established at the time of the conversion of the Bank from mutual to stock form. On April 4, 2000 the Board of Directors approved a dividend of $.20 per share, payable May 31, 2000 to shareholders of record on May 17, 2000. This dividend was paid from funds made available by dividends from the subsidiary bank. On April 20, 1999, the Board of Directors approved a dividend of $.20 per share, payable May 24, 1999 to shareholders of record on May 10, 1999. While the Company paid this dividend from its cash funds, the primary source of funds available for the payment of cash dividends by the Company are dividends from the subsidiary bank. We are exploring whether to purchase land and construct a branch. Although no definite plans have been made, if a new branch is built, the land and construction cost would total approximately $600,000. We have sufficient liquid assets to pay for these costs. Pursuant to FASB No. 130 the Company is required to record changes in the value of its investment portfolio as regards unrealized gains or losses that may result from movements in interest rates. For the quarter and nine months ended June 30, 2000, the savings bank showed unrealized gains (losses), net of tax effect, totaling $6,000 and $(40,000), respectively due to increases in interest rates as the National Money Market reacted to 14 actions by the Federal Open Market Committee. Management does not anticipate the realization of the above loss. The unrealized loss does however negatively impact the Company's capital. The unrealized losses, net of applicable taxes, combined with net operating income of $202,073, a reduction in the receivable from the Bank's Employee Stock Ownership Plan of $52,900 and the acquisition of 26,698 shares of treasury stock at a cost of $280,000 yields a net decrease in the Company's capital of $167,000. However, because of the treasury stock acquisition reducing the number of shares of common stock outstanding the book value per share of common stock increased from $14.37 on September 30, 1999 to $14.80 as of June 30, 2000. The Bank's capital continues to exceed regulatory requirements and continues to be adequate to support future asset growth. 15 PART II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 1.
