Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations
This item discusses the results of operations for S.Y. Bancorp, Inc.
("Bancorp"), and its subsidiary, Stock Yards Bank & Trust Company for
the three months ended March 31, 2000 and compares that period with the
same period of the previous year. Unless otherwise indicated, all
references in this discussion to the "Bank" include Bancorp. In addition,
the discussion describes the significant changes in the financial
condition of Bancorp and the Bank that have occurred during the first
three months of 2000 compared to December 31, 1999. This discussion
should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements
and accompanying notes presented in Part I, Item 1 of this report.
This report contains forward-looking statements under the Private
Securities Litigation Reform act that involve risks and uncertainties.
Although Bancorp believes the assumptions underlying the forward-looking
statements contained herein are reasonable, any of these assumptions could
be inaccurate. Therefore, there can be no assurance forward-looking
statements included herein will prove to be accurate. Factors that could
cause actual results to differ from results discussed in forward-looking
statements include, but are not limited to: economic conditions both
generally and more specifically in the market in which Bancorp and its
subsidiary operate; competition for Bancorp's customers from other
providers of financial services; government legislation and regulation
which change from time to time and over which Bancorp has no control;
changes in interest rates; material unforeseen changes in liquidity,
results of operations, or financial condition of Bancorp's customers;
other risks detailed in Bancorp's filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission, all of which are difficult to predict and many
of which are beyond the control of Bancorp.
A. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net income of $2,592,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000
increased $348,000 or 15.5% from $2,244,000 for the comparable 1999
period. Basic net income per share was $.39 for the first quarter
of 2000, an increase of 14.7% from the $.34 for the same period in 1999.
Net income on a diluted basis was $.38 for the first quarter of 2000
compared to $.33 for the first quarter of 1999. This represents a 15.2%
increase. Return on average assets and return on average stockholders'
equity were 1.50% and 20.47%, respectively, for the first quarter of 2000,
compared to 1.52% and 20.10%, respectively, for the same period in 1999.
The following paragraphs provide an analysis of the significant
factors affecting operating results and financial condition.

Notes:
(1) Net interest income, the most significant component of the Banks'
earnings, is total interest income less total interest expense. The
level of net interest income is determined by the mix and volume of
interest earning assets, interest bearing deposits and borrowed
funds, and by changes in interest rates.
(2) Net interest spread is the difference between the taxable equivalent
rate earned on interest earning assets less the rate expensed on
interest bearing liabilities.
(3) Net interest margin represents net interest income on a taxable
equivalent basis as a percentage of average interest earning assets.
Net interest margin is affected by both the interest rate spread and
the level of non-interest bearing sources of funds, primarily
consisting of demand deposits and stockholders' equity.
Fully taxable equivalent net interest income of $7,525,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 2000 increased $1,073,000 or 16.6% from
$6,452,000 for the same period last year. Net interest spread and net
interest margin were 3.96% and 4.68%, respectively, for the first quarter
of 2000 and 4.02% and 4.72%, respectively, for the first quarter of 1999.
Average earning assets increased $90,458,000, or 16.3% to
$645,174,000 for the first quarter of 2000 compared to 1999. Average
interest bearing liabilities increased $76,779,000 or 16.5% to
$542,048,000 for the first three months of 2000 compared to 1999.
Managing interest rate risk is fundamental for the financial
services industry. The primary objective of interest rate risk
management is to neutralize effects of interest rate changes on net
income. By using both on and off-balance sheet financial instruments,
Bank management evaluates interest rate sensitivity while attempting
to optimize net interest income within the constraints of prudent
capital adequacy, liquidity needs, market opportunities and customer
requirements.
Bancorp uses an earnings simulation model to measure and evaluate
the impact of changing interest rates on earnings. The simulation model
is designed to reflect the dynamics of all interest earning assets,
interest bearing liabilities and off-balance sheet financial instruments,
combining factors affecting rate sensitivity into a one year forecast.
By forecasting management's estimate of the most likely rate environment
and adjusting those rates up and down the model can reveal approximate
interest rate risk exposure. The March 31, 2000 simulation analysis
indicates that an increase in interest rates would have a positive effect
on net interest income, and a decrease in interest rates would have a
negative effect on net interest income.
Interest Rate Simulation Sensitivity Analysis

Net Interest Net Income Diluted EPS
Income Change Change Change
Increase 200bp $ 478 $ 166 $ 0.02
Increase 100bp 87 43 0.01
Decrease 100bp (903) (586) (0.09)
Decrease 200bp (1,308) (859) (0.13)
To assist in achieving a desired level of interest rate sensitivity,
management entered into an off-balance sheet interest rate collar which
was designed to mitigate the effect of a drop in interest rates.
Derivative financial instruments can be a cost and capital efficient
method of modifying interest rate risk sensitivity.
Provision for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses is based on management's continuing
review of individual credits, recent loss experience, current economic
conditions, the risk characteristics of the various categories of loans,
and such other factors that, in management's judgment, deserve current
recognition in estimating loan losses.

----- -----
Total non-interest expenses $6,343 $5,494
===== =====
Non-interest income increased $291,000, or 9.6%, for the first quarter
of 2000, compared to the same period in 1999. Trust income increased
$210,000 or 16.8% in the first quarter of 2000, as compared to the same
period in 1999. Trust assets under management at March 31, 2000 were $953
million as compared to $914 million at December 31, 1999 and $780 million
at March 31, 1999.
Service charges on deposit accounts increased $204,000 or 26.2% in
the first quarter of 2000 as compared to the same period in 1999.
Opening new branch offices and promotion of retail accounts have presented
opportunities for growth in deposit accounts and increased fee income.
Additionally, in March the Bank began offering an overdraft service to
retail depositors. The service allows checking customers meeting specific
criteria to incur overdrafts up to a predetermined limit, generally $500.
For each check paid resulting in or increasing an overdraft, the customer
pays the standard overdraft charge. During March, 2000, these fees
totaled approximately $80,000.
Gains on sales of mortgage loans were $253,000 in the first quarter
of 2000 compared to $492,000 in 1999. The Bank operates a mortgage
banking company which originates residential mortgage loans and sells the
loans in the secondary market. Favorable interest rates in early 1999
stimulated home buying and refinancing. As interest rates have increased
mortgage loan volume, particularly refinancing, has decreased, resulting
in a corresponding decrease in revenues.
Gains on sales of securities available for sale during the first
quarter of 1999 occurred as management sold lower yielding, shorter
term securities for intermediate term, higher yielding securities.
No sales of securities occurred in 2000
Other non-interest income increased $216,000 or 52.6% in the first
quarter of 2000 compared to 1999. Numerous factors contributed to this
increase, including $96,000 from full service brokerage, $57,000 from
check card income and $39,000 from ATM surcharges.
Non-interest expenses increased $849,000 or 15.5% for the first
quarter of 2000 compared to the same period in 1999. Salaries and
employee benefits increased $684,000, or 21.8%, for the first quarter
of 2000 compared to the same period in 1999. Employees continue
to be added to support the Bank's growth. The Bank had 310 full
time equivalent employees as of March 31, 2000 and 286 full time
equivalents as of March 31, 1999. These increases also arose
in part from regular salary increases. Net occupancy expense
increased $31,000 or 7.6% in thefirst quarter of 2000 as compared
to 1999. Furniture and equipment expense increased $79,000
or 15.1%, for the first quarter of 2000 compared to 1999.
These increases are largely due to the addition of new banking
centers. Other non-interest expenses have increased $55,000 or
3.9% in the first quarter of 2000 as compared to 1999.
Income Taxes
Bancorp had income tax expense of $1,220,000 for the first
three months of 2000, compared to $1,099,000 for the same period
in 1999. The effective rate was 32.0% in 2000 and 32.9% in 1999.

Total assets increased $29,630,000 from December 31, 1999 to
March 31, 2000. Average assets for the first three months of 2000 were
$691,535,000. Total assets at March 31, 2000 increased $96,958,000 from
March 31, 1999, representing a 15.6% increase. Since year end, loans have
increased approximately $35.3 million; cash and due from banks and federal
funds sold decreased $.6 million; securities available for sale decreased
$3.9 million, and securities held to maturity decreased $1.6 million.
Mortgage loans available for sale increased $.5 million.
Nonperforming Loans and Assets
Nonperforming loans, which include non-accrual and loans past due
over 90 days, totaled $4,473,000 at March 31, 2000 and $4,416,000 at
December 31, 1999. This represents .77% of total loans at March 31, 2000
compared to .81% at December 31, 1999.
Nonperforming assets, which include non-performing loans, other real
estate and repossessed assets, totaled $4,556,000 at March 31, 2000 and
$4,057,000 at December 31, 1999. The Company had no other real estate
at either date. This represents .63% of total assets at March 31, 2000
compared to .65% at December 31, 1999.
C. LIQUIDITY
The role of liquidity is to ensure that funds are available to meet
depositors' withdrawal and borrowers' credit demands while at the same
time maximizing profitability. This is accomplished by balancing changes
in demand for funds with changes in the supply of those funds. Liquidity
to meet demand is provided by maturing assets, short-term liquid assets
that can be converted to cash, and the ability to attract funds from
external sources - principally deposits. Management believes it has the
ability to increase deposits at any time by offering rates slightly higher
than the market rate.
The Bank has a number of sources of funds to meet its liquidity needs
on a daily basis. The deposit base, consisting of relatively stable
consumer and commercial deposits, and large denomination
($100,000 and over) certificates of deposit, is a source of funds. The
majority of these deposits are from long term customers and are a stable
source of funds. The Bank has no brokered deposits. In addition, federal
funds purchased continue to be an available source of funds.
Other sources of funds available to meet daily needs include the sale
of securities under agreements to repurchase and funds made available under
a treasury tax and loan note agreement with the federal government. Also,
the Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati (FHLB).
As a member of the FHLB, the Bank has access to credit products of the
FHLB. To date, the Bank has not needed to access this source of funds.
Additionally, the Bank has an available line of credit and federal funds
purchased lines with correspondent banks totaling $38 million.
Bancorp's liquidity depends primarily on the dividends paid to it as
the sole shareholder of the Bank. At March 31, 2000, the Bank may pay up
to $15,900,000 in dividends to Bancorp without regulatory approval
subject to the ongoing capital requirements of the Bank. During the
quarter the Bank paid dividends to Bancorp totaling $632,000.
D. CAPITAL RESOURCES
At March 31, 2000, stockholders' equity totaled $51,776,000, an
increase of $1,522,000 since December 31, 1999. One component of equity
is accumulated other comprehensive income which for Bancorp consists of
net unrealized gains on securities available for sale, and a minimum
pension liability adjustment, net of taxes. Accumulated other
comprehensive losses were $1,560,000 at March 31, 2000 and $1,351,000 at
December 31, 1999. The change since year end is a reflection of the
effect of rising interest rates on the valuation of the Bank's
portfolio of securities available for sale.
Bank holding companies and their subsidiary banks are required by
regulators to meet risk based capital standards. These standards, or
ratios, measure the relationship of capital to a combination of
balance-sheet and off-balance sheet risks. The values of both
balance-sheet and off-balance sheet items are adjusted to reflect
credit risks.
At March 31, 2000, Bancorp's tier 1 total risk based capital and
leverage ratios were 8.99%, 10.30% and 7.21%, respectively. These ratios
exceed the minimum required by regulators to be well capitalized. Capital
ratios has declined in the first quarter of 2000 primarily as a result of
the stock buy back program announced in November, 1999. The Board of
Directors authorized a 200,000 share common stock buy back program
representing approximately 3% of its common stock. The repurchased shares
may be used for, among other things, issuance of shares for the stock
options or employee stock ownership or purchase plans. As of
March 31, 2000, 46,550 shares had been repurchased for a total cost of
$1,013,000. Management monitors this situation and plans to maintain
capital ratios within well capitalized parameters.
D RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June, 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities." This statement standardizes the accounting for
derivative instruments. Under this standard, entities are required
to carry all derivative instruments on the balance sheet at fair value.
The accounting for changes in the fair value (i.e., gains or losses)
of a derivative instrument depends on whether it has been designated and
qualifies as part of a hedging relationship and, if so, on the reason
for holding it. If certain conditions are met, entities may elect to
designate a derivative instrument as a hedge of exposures to changes in
fair values, cash flows, or foreign currencies. If the hedged exposure is
a fair value exposure, the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is
recognized in earnings in the period of change together with the
offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item attributable to the risk being
hedged. If the hedged exposure is a cash flow exposure, the effective
portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported
initially as a component of other comprehensive income and subsequently
reclassified into earnings when the forecasted transaction affects
earnings. Any amounts excluded from the assessment of hedge
effectiveness as well as the ineffective portion of the gain or loss is
reported in earnings immediately. Accounting for foreign currency hedges
is similar to the accounting for fair value and cash flow hedges. If the
derivative instrument is not designated as a hedge, the gain or loss is
recognized in earnings in the period of change.
During 1999 the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
No. 137 which delays the effective date of Statement 133 until
January 1, 2001; however, early adoption is permitted. On adoption, the
provisions of Statement 133 must be applied prospectively. Bancorp has
not determined when it will adopt Statement 133 nor has it determined the
impact that Statement 133 will have on its financial statements.
Management believes that such determination will not be meaningful until
closer to the date of initial adoption.
