NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Farmers Capital
Bank Corporation (the "Company"), a financial holding company, and its
wholly-owned six bank and one nonbank subsidiaries. Bank subsidiaries include
Farmers Bank & Capital Trust Co. ("Farmers Bank") in Frankfort, KY; United Bank
& Trust Co. in Versailles, KY; Lawrenceburg National Bank in Harrodsburg, KY;
First Citizens Bank in Shepherdsville, KY; Farmers Bank and Trust Company in
Georgetown, KY; and Kentucky Banking Centers, Inc. in Glasgow, KY. The Company's
nonbank subsidiary is FCB Services, Inc., a data processing subsidiary located
in Frankfort, KY. Intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in
consolidation. Leasing One Corporation and Farmers Capital Insurance Corporation
are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Farmers Bank. Pro Mortgage Partners, LLC is a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Farmers Bank and Trust Company.
The Company provides financial services through its 28 locations throughout
Central Kentucky to individual, business, agriculture, government, and
educational customers. Its primary deposit products are checking, savings, and
term certificate accounts. Its primary lending products are residential
mortgage, commercial lending and leasing, and installment loans. Substantially
all loans and leases are secured by specific items of collateral including
business assets, consumer assets, and commercial and residential real estate.
Commercial loans and leases are expected to be repaid from cash flow from
operations of businesses. Farmers Bank has served as the general depository for
the Commonwealth of Kentucky for over 70 years and also provides investment and
other services to the Commonwealth. Other services include, but are not limited
to, cash management services, issuing letters of credit, safe deposit box
rental, and providing funds transfer services. Other financial instruments,
which potentially represent concentrations of credit risk, include deposit
accounts in other financial institutions and federal funds sold.
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 that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date
of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Estimates used in the preparation of the financial
statements are based on various factors including the current interest rate
environment and the general strength of the local economy. Changes in the
overall interest rate environment can significantly affect the Company's net
interest income and the value of its recorded assets and liabilities. Actual
results could differ from those estimates used in the preparation of the
financial statements.
The financial information presented as of any date other than December 31 has
been prepared from the books and records without audit. The accompanying
consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the
instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X and do not include
all of the information and the footnotes required by accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America for complete statements. In
the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring
adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of such financial statements,
have been included. The results of operations for the interim periods are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and
footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2003.
2. RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain reclassifications have been made to the consolidated financial
statements of prior periods to conform to the current period presentation. These
reclassifications do not affect net income or total shareholders' equity as
previously reported.
3. NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE
Basic net income per common share is determined by dividing net income by the
weighted average total number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted net
income per common share is determined by dividing net income by the total
weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding, plus the total
weighted average number of shares that would be issued upon exercise of dilutive
stock options assuming proceeds are used to repurchase shares pursuant to the
treasury stock method. Net income per common share computations were as follows
at June 30, 2004 and 2003.

4. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
In 1997, the Company's Board of Directors approved a nonqualified stock option
plan that provides for granting of stock options to key employees and officers
of the Company. The plan was subsequently ratified by the Company's shareholders
at its annual shareholders' meeting held on May 12, 1998, the measurement date
of the plan. All stock options are awarded at a price equal to the fair market
value of the Company's common stock at the date the options are granted. The
Company applies Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25 and related
interpretations in accounting for its plan. Accordingly, since options were
granted during 1997 at the fair market value of the Company's stock on the grant
date, and the measurement date occurred during 1998, the Company recognizes
noncash compensation expense based on the intrinsic value of the stock options
measured on the date of shareholder ratification of the plan.
The Company granted 54,000 additional options during 2000 in which there is no
compensation expense being recognized pursuant to APB No. 25. Had compensation
expense been determined under the fair value method described in the Financial
Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
("SFAS") No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, as amended by SFAS
No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure, the
Company's net income and income per common share would have been as shown in the
table below.

- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The fair value of the options granted are estimated as of the measurement date
using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average
assumptions used for grants in 2000 and 1997, respectively: dividend yield of
3.12% and 3.18%; expected volatility of 29.6% and 23.4%; risk-free interest rate
of 6.71% and 5.75%; and expected life of seven years for both grants. The
weighted average fair value of options granted during 2000 and 1997 was $9.25
and $16.11 per share, respectively.
The plan provides for the granting of options to purchase up to 450,000 shares
of the Company's common stock at a price equal to the fair market value of the
Company's common stock on the date the option is granted. The term of the
options expires after ten years from the date on which the options are granted.
Options granted under the plan vest ratably over various time periods ranging
from four to seven years. All options granted must be held for a minimum of one
year before they can be exercised. Forfeited options are available for the
granting of additional stock options under the plan.
5. EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
The Company's 2004 Employee Stock Purchase Plan was approved by its shareholders
at the Company's 2004 annual meeting on May 11, 2004. This Plan is effective
beginning July 1, 2004.
6. SUBSEQUENT EVENT - CITIZENS BANK (KENTUCKY), INC.
On July 2, 2004 the Company announced that the required approvals from the
appropriate regulatory authorities were received and that the acquisition of
100% of the outstanding common shares of Citizens Bank (Kentucky), Inc. in
Georgetown, Kentucky had been completed. The results presented in the
consolidated financial statements herein do not include any results related to
this acquisition, which occurred during the third quarter of 2004.
The total cost related to this acquisition, which has been paid entirely in
cash, was approximately $14.6 million. The following table presents the
estimated fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at the
date of purchase. Additional legal expenses incurred but unbilled will result in
further purchase price and goodwill adjustments.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
SECOND QUARTER 2004 VS. SECOND QUARTER 2003
-------------------------------------------
The Company reported net income of $3.7 million for the second quarter of 2004,
an increase of $715 thousand or 23.6% compared to $3.0 million for the second
quarter of 2003. Basic and diluted net income per share for the current quarter
was $.56 and $.55, an increase of $.11 or 24.4% and $.10 or 22.2%, respectively.
The increase in net income for the three months ended June 30, 2004 is primarily
attributed to an increase in net interest income. Net interest income for the
current quarter was $10.5 million, an increase of $1.3 million or 14.2% compared
to the same period a year earlier. The increase in net interest income in the
quarterly comparison can be attributed to both an increase in interest income
totaling $536 thousand or 3.7% along with a decline in interest expense of $772
thousand or 15.1%.
Lower noninterest income and an increase in noninterest expenses partially
offset the reported increase in net interest income in the current three-month
reporting period. Noninterest income declined $242 thousand or 5.4% in the
three-month comparison primarily due to lower gains on the sale of mortgage
loans of $252 thousand. The decline is the result of lower origination activity
in the current period. Noninterest expenses increased $161 thousand or 1.7% due
mainly to increases in salaries and employee benefits of $170 thousand or 3.3%.
The increase in salaries and employee benefits was affected by normal salary
increases and an increase in the average number of full time equivalent
employees of seven. The effective income tax rate declined 187 basis points to
20.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2004 compared to the same period a
year earlier.
The return on average assets ("ROA") was 1.15% for the current quarter, an
increase of 17 basis points compared to .98% reported for the same period in
2003. The increase in ROA was driven by a 35 basis point increase in net
interest margin to 3.83% from 3.48%. The increase in net interest margin, along
with a decrease in noninterest expenses as a percentage of average total assets,
more than offset the following which negatively impacted ROA: a decrease in the
earning asset ratio contributing nine basis points; an increase in the provision
for loan losses contributing three basis points; a decrease in noninterest
income contributing 15 basis points; and an increase in income taxes
contributing three basis points. Return on average equity ("ROE") was 11.93% for
the second quarter of 2004 compared to 9.71% in the same period of 2003. This
represents an increase of 222 basis points and is attributed to higher net
income reported in the current period coupled with an increase in financial
leverage compared to the same period a year ago. Financial leverage represents
the degree in which borrowed funds, as opposed to equity, are used in the
funding of assets. Financial leverage increased to 10.8% from 9.8% in the
comparison.
NET INTEREST INCOME
- -------------------
Although many economic measures are beginning to improve, weaknesses remain in
the overall economic environment. The general trend of the interest rate
environment for 2003 was downward primarily as a result of previous short-term
interest rate reductions taken by the Federal Reserve Board ("Fed"). The effects
of the downward trend in general interest rates for 2003 have began to
positively affect the Company's net interest income during 2004. A significant
amount of time deposits, the largest component of interest bearing liabilities,
have repriced to lower rates and have contributed to an increase in net interest
income for the current period. The repricing of time deposits for the Company
have generally taken longer to occur than for other interest paying liabilities
and interest earning assets due to their fixed nature and maturity
characteristics. The increase in the short-term federal funds rate of 25 basis
points by the Fed near the end of current quarter did not significantly impact
the Company's net interest income during the reporting periods.
The Company's tax equivalent ("TE") yield on earning assets for the current
three months was 5.3%, unchanged from the same period a year ago. The cost of
funds for the current three months was 1.8%, a decline of 42 basis points
compared to 2.2% in the same period a year earlier. A goal of the Company in the
current interest rate environment is to increase earning assets while
maintaining relatively low interest rates paid on interest bearing liabilities.
However, many of the Company's funding sources, particularly deposits, have
neared their repricing floors. Average earning assets increased $49.2 million or
4.4% to $1.2 billion in the quarterly comparison. As a percentage of total
average assets, earning assets decreased 137 basis points to 89.06% from 90.43%.
This decrease had the effect of reducing ROA by nine basis points in the
quarterly comparison.
Interest income totaled $14.9 million for the second quarter of 2004, an
increase of $536 thousand or 3.7% compared to the same period in the prior year.
Interest expense totaled $4.3 million, a decrease of $772 thousand or 15.1%. Net
interest income rose $1.3 million or 14.2% in the comparison and totaled $10.5
million for the three months ended June 30, 2004.
Interest and fees on loans totaled $11.8 million, a decrease of $337 thousand
mainly due to a decrease in the average rate earned. Average loans increased
$40.9 million or 5.5% to $783.1 million in the comparison due to increased loan
demand in a low rate environment. The tax equivalent yield on loans decreased 52
basis points to 6.1% from 6.6% and offset the effects of higher average balances
on interest income. Interest on taxable securities was $2.0 million, an increase
of $820 thousand or 68.3% due primarily to an increase in the average rate
earned, which was negatively affected by the unusually high premium amortization
on mortgage-backed securities in the prior year. Prepayments on mortgage-backed
securities in the prior year increased greatly due to corresponding refinancing
of home mortgages that serve as collateral for these investment securities. The
increase in activity was directly related to the historic low interest rate
environment that existed throughout much of 2003. The average rate earned on
taxable securities increased 114 basis points to 3.2% from 2.1% while the
average balance increased to $252.5 million from $231.3 million. Interest on
nontaxable securities increased $205 thousand or 26.3% due to a $26.0 million
increase in the average balance to $96.2 million from $70.1 million. The
increase in average nontaxable securities offset a 47 basis point decline in
yield to 6.1% from 6.6%. Interest on short-term investments, including time
deposits in other banks, federal funds sold, and securities purchased under
agreements to resell, decreased $152 thousand due primarily to a combination of
both a decrease in the average balance to $34.6 million from $73.6 million and a
decrease in average rate earned on these investments of 30 basis points to 1.0%
from 1.3%.
Interest expense on deposits decreased $714 thousand or 16.5% to $3.6 million in
the quarterly comparison. This decrease resulted from a general decline in the
average rate paid throughout the deposit portfolio, particularly time deposits,
and correlates with the general decline in market interest rates in the
reporting periods. The decline in the average rates paid offset a general
increase in average balances. The decline in interest expense on deposits was as
follows: time deposits $649 thousand or 18.3%; interest bearing demand deposits
$62 thousand or 17.6%; and savings deposits $3 thousand or 0.7%. The average
rate paid on time deposits, the largest component of interest bearing deposits,
was 2.7% for the second quarter of 2004 compared to 3.3% for the same period of
2003. The average balance of time deposits increased $4.3 million or 1.0% to
$430.5 million. The average rate paid on interest bearing demand deposits
declined 16 basis points to .49% from .65% while the average balance increased
$17.8 million or 8.1% to $236.8 million. The average rate paid on savings
deposits decreased 16 basis points to .8% from 1.0% while the average balance
increased $29.1 million or 17.9% to $192.1 million from $163.0 million. Interest
expense on overnight borrowings, consisting of federal funds purchased and
securities sold under agreements to repurchase, increased $6 thousand as a $16.1
million increase in the average balance offset a decline in the average rate
paid of 24 basis points to 1.2% from 1.4%. Interest expense on other borrowed
funds decreased $64 thousand in the comparison due mainly to a reduction in the
outstanding average balance, which offset a 30 basis point increase in the
average rate paid to 3.7% from 3.4%. The average balance of other borrowed funds
totaled $54.3 million, a decrease of $12.4 million or 18.6% in the comparison.
The net interest margin (TE) increased 35 basis points to 3.83% during the
second quarter of 2004 compared to 3.48% in the second quarter of 2003. The
increase in net interest margin is primarily attributed to a 43 basis point
increase in the spread between rates earned on earning assets and the rates paid
on interest bearing liabilities to 3.58% in the current quarter from 3.15% in
the second quarter of 2003. The effect of noninterest bearing sources of funds
offset the 43 basis point increase in spread by 8 basis points, resulting in the
increase in net interest margin. The effect of noninterest bearing sources of
funds on net interest margin typically declines in a falling rate environment.
The following tables present an analysis of net interest income for the
quarterly periods ended June 30.

NONINTEREST INCOME
- ------------------
Noninterest income was $4.2 million for the current quarter, a decrease of $242
thousand or 5.4% compared to the second quarter of the prior year. The largest
component of noninterest income, service charges and fees on deposits, totaled
$2.1 million at June 30, 2004, an increase of $71 thousand or 3.5% due to
increased overdraft volumes. Other service charges, commissions, and fees
increased $37 thousand or 4.3% to $890 thousand. Data processing fees dipped
slightly to $381 thousand from $389 thousand in the comparison. Trust income was
relatively unchanged at $414 thousand compared to $413 thousand in the same
quarter a year earlier. Net losses on the sale of available for sale securities
for the current quarter were $17 thousand compared to net losses of $3 thousand
in the prior year as the Company continues its efforts to properly manage its
balance sheet composition in the current economic environment. Net gains on the
sale of mortgage loans were $71 thousand, a decrease of $252 thousand from $323
thousand in the prior year. Mortgage loans originated for sale, which began to
decline in the fourth quarter of 2003, declined $13.5 million or 69.6% in the
current quarterly comparison. Mortgage loan activity in the current quarter is
reflective of lower refinancing activity compared to the same period a year
earlier. Consumer refinancing activity in the prior year was driven by
historically low interest rates. Income from the purchase of company-owned life
insurance declined $46 thousand or 11.3% to $362 thousand in the current
three-month period as a result of the structure of fee vesting schedules. Other
noninterest income totaled $46 thousand, a decrease of $31 thousand compared to
the prior period.
NONINTEREST EXPENSE
- -------------------
Total noninterest expenses were $9.6 million for the second quarter of 2004, an
increase of $161 thousand or 1.7% compared to the second quarter of 2003.
Salaries and employee benefits rose $170 thousand or 3.3% while other
noninterest expense categories remained relatively flat or have decreased in the
comparison. Employee salaries and payroll taxes increased $221 thousand or 5.4%
while benefit expenses and noncash compensation expense related to the Company's
nonqualified stock option plan declined $13 thousand or 1.3% and $37 thousand or
35.2%, respectively. The increase in salary expense is attributed to normal
salary increases along with an increase in the average number of full time
equivalent employees of seven. The slight decline in benefit expenses is
attributed to lower health insurance costs during the current period. The number
of full time equivalent employees as of June 30, 2004 was 469 compared to 462 a
year earlier.
INCOME TAXES
- ------------
Income tax expense for the second quarter of 2004 was $967 thousand, an increase
of $93 thousand or 10.6% from the same period a year earlier. The effective tax
rate decreased 187 basis points to 20.5% from 22.41% in 2003. The decrease in
the effective tax rate is due to additional revenues from investments in
municipal securities and a reduction of net revenue expected from taxable
sources.
FIRST SIX MONTHS OF 2004 VS. FIRST SIX MONTHS OF 2003
-----------------------------------------------------
Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2003 was $7.2 million compared to
net income of $6.6 million for the same period in 2003, an increase of $630
thousand or 9.5%. Basic and diluted net income per share was $1.08 and $1.07 for
the current six months, an increase of $.10 or 10.2% and $.09 or 9.2%,
respectively. The increase in net income is primarily attributed to an increase
in net interest income. Net interest income for the current six-month period was
$20.9 million an increase of $1.6 million or 8.3% compared to the same six
months in 2003. The increase in net interest income is due to the reduction in
interest expense of $1.8 million or 17.3%, which offset a slight decline in
interest income of $233 thousand or .8%.
Lower noninterest income and an increase in noninterest expenses partially
offset the reported increase in net interest income in the current six-month
reporting period. Noninterest income declined $321 thousand or 3.7% in the
comparison primarily due to lower gains on the sale of mortgage loans of $397
thousand. The decline is the result of lower origination activity in the current
period. Noninterest expenses increased $704 thousand or 3.8% in the current
six-month period due mainly to increases in salaries and employee benefits of
$496 thousand or 4.8%. The increase in salaries and employee benefits was
affected by normal salary increases and an increase in the average number of
full time equivalent employees of three. The effective income tax rate declined
270 basis points to 20.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2004 compared to the
same period a year earlier.
ROA was 1.12% for the six months ended June 30, 2004, an increase of five basis
points compared to 1.07% reported for the same period in 2003. The increase in
ROA was driven by a 22 basis point increase in net interest margin to 3.83% from
3.61%. The increase in net interest margin, along with a decrease in noninterest
expenses and income tax expense as a percentage of average total assets, more
than offset the following which negatively impacted ROA: a decrease in the
earning asset ratio contributing 10 basis points; an increase in the provision
for loan losses contributing one basis point; and a decrease in noninterest
income contributing 11 basis points. ROE was 11.51% for the first six months of
2004 compared to 10.68% in the same period of 2003. This represents an increase
of 83 basis points and is attributed to higher net income reported in the
current period coupled with an increase in financial leverage compared to the
same period a year ago. Financial leverage represents the degree in which
borrowed funds, as opposed to equity, are used in the funding of assets.
Financial leverage increased to 10.3% from 9.9% in the comparison.
NET INTEREST INCOME
- -------------------
Although many economic measures are beginning to improve, weaknesses remain in
the overall economic environment. The general trend of the interest rate
environment for 2003 was downward primarily as a result of previous short-term
interest rate reductions taken by the Fed. The effects of the downward trend in
general interest rates for 2003 have began to positively affect the Company's
net interest income during 2004. A significant amount of time deposits, the
largest component of interest bearing liabilities, have repriced to lower rates
and have contributed to an increase in net interest income for the current
period. The repricing of time deposits for the Company have generally taken
longer to occur than for other interest paying liabilities and interest earning
assets due to their fixed nature and maturity characteristics. The increase in
the short-term federal funds rate of 25 basis points by the Fed near the end of
current quarter did not significantly impact the Company's net interest income
during the reporting periods
The Company's tax equivalent yield on earning assets for the current six months
was 5.4%, a reduction of 14 basis points from 5.5% in the same period a year
ago. The cost of funds for the current six months was 1.8%, a decline of 47
basis points compared to 2.2% in the same period a year earlier. A goal of the
Company in the current interest rate environment is to increase earning assets
while maintaining relatively low interest rates paid on interest bearing
liabilities. However, many of the Company's funding sources, particularly
deposits, have approached their repricing floors. Average earning assets
increased $22.5 million or 2.0% to $1.2 billion in the comparison. As a
percentage of total average assets, earning assets declined 218 basis points to
89.06% from 91.24%. This increase had the effect of reducing ROA by 10 basis
points in the six-month comparison.
Interest income totaled $29.6 million for the first six months of 2004, a
decrease of $233 thousand or .8% compared to the same period in the prior year.
Interest expense totaled $8.7 million, a decrease of $1.8 million or 17.3%. Net
interest income increased $1.6 million or 8.3% in the comparison and totaled
$20.9 million at June 30, 2004.
Interest and fees on loans totaled $23.5 million, a decrease of $837 thousand
mainly due to a decrease in the average rate earned. Average loans increased
$34.5 million or 4.7% to $773.6 million in the comparison due to higher loan
demand in a continued low rate environment. The tax equivalent yield on loans
decreased 55 basis points to 6.2% from 6.7% and offset the effects of higher
loan demand on interest income. Interest on taxable securities was $4.0 million,
an increase of $485 thousand or 13.9% due primarily to an increase in the
average rate earned, which was negatively affected by the unusually high premium
amortization on mortgage-backed securities in the prior year. Prepayments on
mortgage-backed securities in the prior year increased greatly due to
corresponding refinancing of home mortgages that serve as collateral for these
investment securities. The increase in activity was directly related to the
historic low interest rate environment that existed throughout much of 2003. The
average rate earned on taxable securities increased 45 basis points to 3.2% from
2.8% while the average balance declined $6.7 million or 2.6%. Interest on
nontaxable securities increased $348 thousand or 22.0% due to a $23.2 million or
32.8% increase in the average balance to $94.1 million from $70.9 million.
Interest on short-term investments, including time deposits in other banks,
federal funds sold, and securities purchased under agreements to resell,
decreased $229 thousand due to a decrease in the average balance of $28.6
million or 43.1% combined with a decrease in the average rate earned on these
investments of 27 basis points to 1.0% from 1.3%.
Interest expense on deposits decreased $1.7 million or 18.8% to $7.3 million in
the six-month comparison. This decrease resulted from a general decline in the
average rate paid throughout the deposit portfolio, particularly time deposits,
and correlates with the general decline in market interest rates in the
reporting periods. The decline in the average rates paid offset a general
increase in average balances. The decline in interest expense on deposits was as
follows: time deposits $1.5 million or 20.4%; interest bearing demand deposits
$134 thousand or 19.0%; and savings deposits $47 thousand or 5.4%. The average
rate paid on time deposits, the largest component of interest bearing deposits,
was 2.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2004 compared to 3.5% for the same
period of 2003. The average balance of time deposits increased $6.2 million or
1.5% to $428.2 million. The average rate paid on interest bearing demand
deposits declined 16 basis points to .49% from .65% while the average balance
increased $15.0 million or 6.8% to $235.9 million. The average rate paid on
savings deposits decreased 18 basis points to .9% from 1.1% while the average
balance increased $24.2 million or 14.5% to $190.8 million from $166.6 million.
Interest expense on overnight borrowings, consisting of federal funds purchased
and securities sold under agreements to repurchase, decreased $35 thousand due
to a 20 basis point decline in the average rate paid, which offset a $6.9
million increase in the average balance. Interest expense on other borrowed
funds decreased $112 thousand in the comparison as net repayments decreased the
average outstanding balance by $11.5 million or 17.4%. The decline in the
average balance outstanding offset an increase in the average rate paid on other
borrowed funds of 29 basis points to 3.7% from 3.4%.
The net interest margin (TE) increased 22 basis points to 3.83% during the six
months ended June 30, 2004 compared to 3.61% in the same period of 2003. The
increase in net interest margin is primarily attributed to a 33 basis point rise
in the spread between rates earned on earning assets and the rates paid on
interest bearing liabilities to 3.58% in the current six months from 3.25% in
the same period in 2003. The effect of noninterest bearing sources of funds
offset the 33 basis point increase in spread by 11 basis points, resulting in
the increase in net interest margin. The effect of noninterest bearing sources
of funds on net interest margin typically declines in a falling rate
environment.
The following tables present an analysis of net interest income for the six
months ended June 30.

NONINTEREST INCOME
- ------------------
Noninterest income was $8.3 million for the first six months of 2004, a decrease
of $321 thousand or 3.7% compared to the same period in 2003. The largest
component of noninterest income, service charges and fees on deposits, increased
$130 thousand or 3.4% to $4.0 million due primarily to a $118 thousand or 4.9%
increase in overdraft activity. Other service charges, commissions, and fees
were flat at $1.8 million. Data processing fees fell $19 thousand or 2.6% to
$715 thousand due mainly to lower transaction volumes. Trust fees increased $16
thousand or 2.0%. Net gains on the sale of available for sale securities was $65
thousand for the current six months, a decrease of $79 thousand or 54.9%
compared to $144 thousand in the comparable period a year ago as the Company
continues its efforts to properly manage the composition of its balance sheet in
the current economic environment. Net gains on the sale of mortgage loans were
$115 thousand, a decrease of $397 thousand from $512 thousand in the prior year.
Mortgage loans originated for sale, which began to decline in the fourth quarter
of 2003, declined $25.4 million or 72.5% in the six-month comparison. The
decrease in mortgage loan origination is reflective of the lower refinancing
activity compared to the same period a year earlier. Consumer refinancing
activity in the prior year was driven by historically low interest rates. Income
from the purchase of company-owned life insurance was $767 thousand, an increase
of $94 thousand or 14.0%. The increase is attributed to a full six months of
income being recognized in the current period compared to a shorter time period
in the prior year due to the timing of the purchase. Other noninterest income
totaled $76 thousand, a decrease of $67 thousand compared to $143 thousand in
the prior year. This decrease is attributable to the operations of the Company's
investment in a low income tax partnership.
NONINTEREST EXPENSE
- -------------------
Noninterest expenses totaled $19.3 million for the first six months of 2004, an
increase of $704 thousand or 3.8% compared to the same period in 2003. Salaries
and employee benefits, the largest component of noninterest expense, increased
$496 thousand or 4.8% and totaled $10.8 million at June 30, 2004. Employee
benefit expenses increased $261 thousand or 13.6% primarily due to increased
health insurance costs, including the timing effect of additional amounts
associated with the new postretirement health insurance coverage initiated late
in the first quarter of 2003. Salary and related payroll expenses increased $308
thousand or 3.8% in the comparison while noncash compensation expense related to
the Company's nonqualified stock option plan declined $74 thousand or 34.8% due
to the structure of the fee vesting schedule. The number of full time equivalent
employees increased to 469 at June 30, 2004 from 462 reported on the same date
in the prior period. On average, the number of full time equivalent employees
increased to 461 from 458 in the comparison. All other noninterest expenses
increased $208 thousand or 2.5%, with $96 thousand in higher telephone expenses
driving the increase. The increase is the result of adding higher data
transmission capacity for both internal and external usage.
INCOME TAXES
- ------------
Income tax expense for the first six months of 2004 was $1.8 million, a decrease
of $131 thousand or 6.6% from the same period a year earlier. The effective tax
rate decreased 270 basis points to 20.3% from 23.0% in 2003. The decrease in the
effective tax rate is due to additional revenues from investments in municipal
securities and a reduction of net revenue expected from taxable sources.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Total assets were $1.3 billion on June 30, 2004, a decrease of $24.4 million or
1.9% from December 31, 2003. The decrease in assets primarily includes a $56.5
million or 44.4% lower balance in cash and cash equivalents and a decrease in
investment securities of $8.3 million or 2.2% offset by an increase in net loans
of $36.8 million or 4.9%. The decrease in total assets is related to the
corresponding decline in the Company's funding sources. The decline in funding
sources includes a $65.7 million or 6.2% decrease in deposits offset by a $42.9
million or 37.8% increase in other borrowings. Total shareholders' equity
declined $1.1 million or .9% due to an increase in unrealized holding losses in
the available for sale investment securities portfolio. The makeup of the
balance sheet continually changes as the Company responds to extremely
competitive market forces.
Management of the Company considers it noteworthy to understand the relationship
between the Company's principal subsidiary, Farmers Bank & Capital Trust Co.,
and the Commonwealth of Kentucky. Farmers Bank provides various services to
state agencies of the Commonwealth. As the depository for the Commonwealth,
these agencies issue checks drawn on Farmers Bank, including paychecks and state
income tax refunds. Farmers Bank also processes vouchers of the WIC (Women,
Infants and Children) program for the Cabinet for Human Resources. The Bank's
investment department also provides services to the Teacher's Retirement
systems. As the depository for the Commonwealth, large fluctuations in deposits
are likely to occur on a daily basis. Therefore, reviewing average balances is
also important to understanding the financial condition of the Company.
On an average basis, total assets were $1.3 billion for the first six months of
2004, an increase of $46.9 million or 3.7% from year-end 2003. Average earning
assets, primarily loans and securities, were $1.2 billion at June 30, 2004, an
increase of $28.3 million or 2.5% from year-end 2003. Average earning assets
represent 89.06% of total average assets on June 30, 2004, a decrease 108 basis
points compared to 90.14% at year-end 2003.
LOANS
- -----
Loans, net of unearned income, totaled $792.9 million at June 30, 2004, an
increase of $36.9 million or 4.9% from year-end 2003. The composition of the
loan portfolio is summarized in the table below.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
June 30, 2004 December 31, 2003
(Dollars in thousands) Amount % Amount %
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Commercial, financial,
and agriculture $ 119,292 15.0% $ 110,657 14.6%
Real estate - construction 49,714 6.3 45,390 6.0
Real estate mortgage - residential 286,885 36.2 270,638 35.8
Real estate mortgage farmland and

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total $ 792,894 100.0% $ 755,945 100.0%
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On average, loans represented 66.9% of earning assets during the current six
month period compared to 65.9% for year-end 2003. As loan demand fluctuates, the
available funds are reallocated between loans and lower earning temporary
investments or investment securities, which typically have lower credit risk and
lower yields.
ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
- -------------------------
The allowance for loan losses was $11.4 million at June 30, 2004, an increase of
$127 thousand or 1.1% from the prior year-end. The allowance for loan losses was
1.44% of loans net of unearned income at June 30, 2004, a decrease of five basis
points from 1.49% from December 31, 2003. The provision for loan losses
increased $97 thousand or 27.6% and $77 thousand or 10.5% in the current
three-month and six-month period, respectively, compared to the same periods in
2003. The Company had net charge-offs of $324 thousand and $687 thousand in the
current three and six months of 2004, respectively, compared to net charge-offs
of $324 thousand and $642 thousand in the same periods of 2003. Annualized net
charge-offs represent .17% and .18% of average net loans for three and six
months ended June 30, 2004, respectively compared to .32% at year-end 2003. The
allowance for loan losses as a percentage of nonperforming loans totaled 141.3%
and 123.9% at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively. The increase is
primarily reflective of the decline in nonperforming assets of $1.0 million in
the comparison. Management continues to emphasize collection efforts and
evaluation of risks within the loan portfolio.
NONPERFORMING ASSETS
- --------------------
Nonperforming assets for the Company include nonperforming loans, other real
estate owned, and other foreclosed assets. Nonperforming loans consist of
nonaccrual loans, restructured loans, and loans past due ninety days or more on
which interest is still accruing. Nonperforming assets totaled $12.1 million at
June 30, 2004, an increase of $936 thousand or 8.4% from the prior year-end.
Nonperforming loans totaled $8.1 million at June 30, 2004 a decrease of $1.0
million or 11.3% compared to year-end 2003. Nonperforming loans include a pool
of constructions loans secured by residential real estate to a financially
troubled builder. This pool of loans totaled $1.3 million at June 30, 2004, a
decrease of $2.9 million or 68.3% from the prior year end. Nonperforming loans
as a percentage of net loans were 1.0% at June 30, 2004, a decrease of 20 basis
points from 1.2% compared to year-end 2003.
Other real estate owned, which had a balance of $1.8 million at year-end 2003,
increased $2.1 million to $3.9 million on June 30, 2004. The increase in other
real estate owned is reflective of $2.8 million of the underlying real estate
collateral on the pool of loans to a financially troubled builder mentioned
above being transferred to the Company through foreclosure.
TEMPORARY INVESTMENTS
- ---------------------
Temporary investments consist of interest bearing deposits with other banks,
federal funds sold, and securities purchased under agreements to resell and
totaled $6.4 million at June 30, 2004, a decrease of $21.2 million or 76.9% from
year-end 2003. Temporary investments averaged $37.7 million for the first six
months of 2004, a decrease of $21.7 million or 36.5% from year-end 2003. The
decrease is primarily a result of the Company's net funding position and the
relationship between its principal subsidiary and the Commonwealth of Kentucky
as described in preceding sections of this report. Temporary investments are
reallocated as loan demand and other investment alternatives present the
opportunity.
INVESTMENT SECURITIES
- ---------------------
Investment securities were $374.6 million on June 30, 2004, a decrease of $8.3
million or 2.2% from year-end 2003. Available for sale and held to maturity
securities were $352.0 million and $22.6 million, respectively. Investment
securities averaged $344.3 million for the first six months of 2004, an increase
of $18.6 million or 5.7% from year-end 2003. The increase in average investment
securities was driven by an $18.5 million or 24.4% increase in nontaxable
securities and is attributable to the Company's continued efforts to manage its
net interest margin during a period of low market interest rates. The Company
had an unrealized loss on available for sale investment securities of $3.5
million at June 30, 2004 compared to an unrealized gain of $3.3 million at
year-end 2003. The change is due primarily to the impact of changing economic
conditions, including an increase in short-term market interest rates near the
end of the current quarter. The market value of fixed rate investments is
inversely related to changes in market interest rates.
COMPANY-OWNED LIFE INSURANCE
- ----------------------------
The Company purchased life insurance policies on certain key employees, with
their knowledge and consent, during the first quarter of 2003. Company-owned
life insurance is recorded at its cash surrender value, i.e. the amount that can
be realized, on the consolidated balance sheets. The related change in cash
surrender value and proceeds received under the policies are reported on the
consolidated statements of income under the caption "Income from company-owned
life insurance". Expected income from the purchase of the insurance policies
will be used to offset the rising costs of the Company's various benefit plans
as well as the additional costs of the new postretirement health insurance
program implemented during 2003. Company-owned life insurance totaled $26.3
million at June 30, 2004, an increase of $757 thousand or 3.0% from year-end
2003.
DEPOSITS
- --------
Total deposits were $1.0 billion at June 30, 2004, a decrease of $65.7 million
or 6.2% from year-end 2003. Noninterest bearing deposits decreased $48.2 million
or 21.3% in the comparison. This decrease is primarily due to the relationship
between the Company's principal subsidiary and the Commonwealth of Kentucky as
described in preceding sections of this report. On average, noninterest bearing
deposits were $172.6 million during the current period, an increase of $10.7
million or 6.6% from year-end 2003. End of period interest bearing deposit
balances decreased $17.6 million or 2.1% during the six months ended June 30,
2004 due to decreases in interest bearing checking accounts of $10.3 million or
4.4%, money market deposit accounts of $9.3 million or 8.1%, and savings
accounts of $2.5 million or 3.4%. Time deposits increased $4.5 million or 1.1%
in the end of period comparisons. On average, interest bearing deposits were
$854.9 million in the current period, an increase of $33.0 million or 4.0% from
year-end 2003. The increase in average interest bearing deposits is attributable
to growth throughout the entire deposit portfolio represented as follows:
interest bearing demand deposits of $8.7 million or 3.8%, money market deposit
accounts of $10.8 million or 10.0%, time deposits of $5.4 million or 1.3%, and
savings accounts of $18.8 million or 11.0%. Total deposits averaged $1.0
billion, an increase of $43.6 million or 4.4% from year-end 2003.
BORROWED FUNDS
- --------------
Borrowed funds totaled $156.4 million at June 30, 2004, an increase of $42.8
million or 37.8% from $113.5 million at year-end 2003. A $2.8 million net
decrease in long-term borrowings was offset by a $45.7 million increase in
short-term borrowings. Federal funds purchased and securities sold under
agreements to repurchase increased $44.5 million or 78.4% due primarily to
increased correspondent banking activity and the relationship between the
Company's principal subsidiary and the Commonwealth of Kentucky as described in
preceding sections of this report. Other short-term borrowings increased $1.2
million to $1.7 million due primarily to additional net borrowings from the
Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") of $1.0 million. The $2.8 million decrease in
long-term borrowings is mainly attributed to net repayments of borrowed funds
from the FHLB. Total borrowed funds averaged $136.4 million, an increase of $3.1
million or 2.3% from year-end 2003.
LIQUIDITY
The Parent Company's primary use of cash consists of dividend payments to its
common shareholders, purchases of its common stock, corporate acquisitions, and
other general operating purposes. Liquidity of the Parent Company depends
primarily on the receipt of dividends from its subsidiary banks and cash
balances maintained. As of June 30, 2004 combined retained earnings of the
subsidiary banks were $45.4 million, of which $2.3 million was available for the
payment of dividends to the Parent Company without obtaining prior approval from
bank regulatory agencies. As a practical matter, payment of future dividends is
also subject to the maintenance of other capital ratio requirements. During the
current six months ended June 30, 2004 the Parent Company received dividends of
$4.3 million. Management expects that in the aggregate, its subsidiary banks
will continue to have the ability to pay dividends in order to provide funds to
the Parent Company during the remainder of 2004 sufficient to meet its liquidity
needs. The Parent Company had cash balances of $28.1 million at June 30, 2004.
Additionally, the Parent Company has a $10.0 million unsecured line of credit
with an unrelated financial institution available for general corporate
purposes. This line of credit will mature on May 31, 2005.
The Company's objective as it relates to liquidity is to insure that subsidiary
banks have funds available to meet deposit withdrawals and credit demands
without unduly penalizing profitability. In order to maintain a proper level of
liquidity, the banks have several sources of funds available on a daily basis,
which can be used for liquidity purposes. These sources of funds primarily
include the subsidiary banks' core deposits, consisting of both business and
nonbusiness deposits; cash flow generated by repayment of loan principal and
interest; FHLB borrowings; and federal funds purchased and securities sold under
agreements to repurchase. As of June 30, 2004 the Company had approximately
$173.6 million in additional borrowing capacity under various FHLB, federal
funds, and other borrowing agreements. There is no guarantee that these sources
of funds will continue to be available to the Company, or that current
borrowings can be refinanced upon maturity, although the Company is not aware of
any events or uncertainties that are likely to cause a decrease in our liquidity
from these sources.
For the longer term, the liquidity position is managed by balancing the maturity
structure of the balance sheet. This process allows for an orderly flow of funds
over an extended period of time. The Company's Asset and Liability Management
Committee meets regularly and monitors the composition of the balance sheet to
ensure comprehensive management of interest rate risk and liquidity.
Liquid assets consist of cash, cash equivalents, and securities available for
sale. At June 30, 2004, such assets totaled $422.7 million, a decrease of $62.7
million or 12.9% from year-end 2003. The decrease in liquid assets is attributed
to the overall funding position of the Company, including deposit activity of
the Commonwealth of Kentucky. Net cash provided by operating activities was $7.7
million in the first six months of 2004, a decrease of $2.9 million from $10.6
million in the same period last year. Net cash used in investing activities was
$37.3 million compared to net cash provided by investing activities of $84.6
million in the prior year six-month period. The $121.9 decrease is due primarily
to a $112.8 million decrease from investment securities transactions and $33.2
million related to loan growth. The purchase of company-owned life insurance in
the prior year created an additional $24.0 million cash outflow while there were
no purchases in the current six months. Net cash used in financing activities
was $27.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 compared to $24.0
million in the prior year. The $3.0 million increase in net cash used is related
to higher net cash outflows of deposits and repayments of borrowed funds during
the current six-month period compared to the activity in the same period a year
earlier.
Commitments to extend credit are considered in addressing the Company's
liquidity management. The Company does not expect these commitments to
significantly effect the liquidity position in future periods.
CAPITAL RESOURCES
Shareholders' equity was $125.4 million on June 30, 2004, a decrease of $1.1
million or 1.0% from year-end 2003 primarily due to a $4.4 million decrease in
accumulated comprehensive income. Accumulated other comprehensive income,
consisting of unrealized holding gains on available for sale investment
securities (net of tax), decreased as a result of changing economic conditions
and changes in market interest rates on the Company's available for sale
investment securities portfolio. An increase in short-term market interest rates
near the end of the current quarter was a significant factor affecting the
decrease in the unrealized holding gains on the available for sale portfolio.
The market value of fixed rate investments is inversely related to changes in
market interest rates. Retained earnings increased $2.8 million or 1.9% as a
result of $7.2 million in net income offset by $4.4 million, or $.66 per share,
in dividends declared during the first six months of 2004. The Company issued 17
thousand shares of common stock during the first six months of 2004 pursuant to
its nonqualified stock option plan. The issuance of these shares increased
shareholders' equity by $420 thousand. The Company purchased 2 thousand shares
of its outstanding common stock during the first six months of 2004 for a total
cost of $73 thousand.
Consistent with the objective of operating a sound financial organization, the
Company's goal is to maintain capital ratios well above the regulatory minimum
requirements. The Company's capital ratios as of June 30, 2004, the regulatory
minimums and the regulatory standard for a "well capitalized" institution are as
follows.
Farmers Capital Regulatory Well
Bank Corporation Minimum Capitalized
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tier 1 risk based 14.96% 4.00% 6.00%
Total risk based 16.22% 8.00% 10.00%
Leverage 9.84% 4.00% 5.00%
As of June 30, 2004, all of the Company's subsidiary banks were in excess of the
well-capitalized regulatory ratio requirements as calculated under guidelines
established by federal banking agencies.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
- ------------------------------------------------------------------
The Company uses a simulation model as a tool to monitor and evaluate interest
rate risk exposure. The model is designed to measure the sensitivity of net
interest income and net income to changing interest rates over future time
periods. Forecasting net interest income and its sensitivity to changes in
interest rates requires the Company to make assumptions about the volume and
characteristics of many attributes, including assumptions relating to the
replacement of maturing earning assets and liabilities. Other assumptions
include, but are not limited to, projected prepayments, projected new volume,
and the predicted relationship between changes in market interest rates and
changes in customer account balances. These effects are combined with the
Company's estimate of the most likely rate environment to produce a forecast of
net interest income and net income. The forecasted results are then adjusted for
the effect of a gradual increase and decrease in market interest rates on the
Company's net interest income and net income. Because assumptions are inherently
uncertain, the model cannot precisely estimate net interest income or net income
or the effect of interest rate changes on net interest income and net income.
Actual results could differ significantly from simulated results.
At June 30, 2004, the model indicated that if rates were to gradually increase
by 150 basis points during the calendar year, then net interest income and net
income would increase .4% and 1.0%, respectively for the year ending December
31, 2004. The model indicated that if rates were to gradually decrease by 150
basis points over the same period, then net interest income and net income would
decrease 2.0% and 4.5%, respectively.
In the current low interest rate environment, it is not practical or possible to
reduce certain deposit rates by the same magnitude as rates on earning assets.
The average rates paid on some of the Company's deposits are well below 1.5%.
This situation magnifies the model's predicted results when modeling a decrease
in interest rates, as earning assets with higher yields have more of an
opportunity to reprice at lower rates than lower-rate deposits.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
- -------------------------------
The Registrant's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have
reviewed and evaluated the effectiveness of the Registrant's disclosure controls
and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report, and have
concluded that the Registrant's disclosure controls and procedures were adequate
and effective to ensure that all material information required to be disclosed
in this report has been made known to them in a timely fashion.
There were no significant changes in the Registrant's internal controls or in
other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the
date of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officers evaluation, nor
were there any material weaknesses in the controls which required corrective
action.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
- -------------------------
As of June 30, 2004, there were various pending legal actions and proceedings
against the Company arising from the normal course of business and in which
claims for damages are asserted. Management, after discussion with legal
counsel, believes that these actions are without merit and that the ultimate
liability resulting from these legal actions and proceedings, if any, will not
have a material adverse effect upon the consolidated financial statements of the
Company.
