3) Commitments and Contingencies
-----------------------------
At September 30, 1994, outstanding commitments to originate
adjustable rate and fixed rate mortgage loans amounted to
$8.1 million and $3.8 million, respectively. At
September 30, 1994, Northeast Savings, F.A. also had
commitments to originate $1.9 million in home equity loans,
$1.1 million in income property loans, and $5.6 million in
residential construction loans, and to fund $17.5 million in
unused consumer credit lines and $8.3 million in undisbursed
residential construction loans. In addition, at September 30,
1994, Northeast Savings, F.A. also had commitments to buy
$26.0 million of mortgage-backed securities and commitments to
sell $3.2 million of loans available-for-sale.
Northeast Savings, F.A. is involved in litigation arising in
the normal course of business. Although the legal
responsibility and financial impact with respect to such
litigation cannot presently be ascertained, management does
not anticipate that any of these matters will result in the
payment of damages by Northeast Savings, F.A. that, in the
aggregate, would be material in relation to the consolidated
results of operation or financial position of Northeast
Federal Corp.
4) Significant Transactions
------------------------
As previously mentioned, the Company has signed a definitive
agreement for the acquisition of Northeast Federal Corp. and
Northeast Savings by Shawmut National Corp. Shawmut is
expected to file applications for regulatory approval of the
merger during the fourth quarter of 1994. The shareholders'
meeting to vote on the merger most likely will be scheduled in
the first quarter of 1995. The agreements are discussed
further in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of
Operations and Financial Condition.
ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION FOR THE FISCAL QUARTER ENDED
SEPTEMBER 30, 1994
GENERAL
- -------
Northeast Federal Corp. is a unitary savings association holding
company engaged in the financial services industry only through its
wholly-owned subsidiary, Northeast Savings, F.A. Throughout the
following discussion, the terms "Northeast Federal" or "Company"
refer to the consolidated entity, including Northeast Federal
Corp., Northeast Savings, F.A. and its subsidiaries. The terms
"Association" and "Northeast Savings" refer to Northeast Savings,
F. A. and its subsidiaries.
As previously announced, the Company has signed a definitive
agreement for the acquisition of Northeast Federal Corp. and
Northeast Savings by Shawmut National Corp. Shawmut has agreed to
exchange shares of Shawmut common stock having a stock price of $10
7/8 for each share of outstanding Northeast Federal Corp.'s stock
for a total transaction price of approximately $172.1 million if
Shawmut National's stock price at the time of closing is between
$21.47 and $26.24. Shawmut is expected to file applications for
regulatory approval of the merger during the fourth quarter of
1994. Northeast now anticipates that shareholders will receive
proxy materials relating to its acquisition in the fourth quarter.
The shareholders' meeting to vote on the merger most likely will be
scheduled in the first quarter of 1995. With the signing of the
agreement, virtually all of Northeast Federal Corp.'s stock options
became fully vested and exercisable and were considered outstanding
in the calculation of earnings per share.
As previously announced, in July and August 1994, the Company also
sold its four San Diego, California branches and its single branch
on Cape Cod with total deposits of $102.0 million.
In addition, for several years, a primary focus of Northeast
Savings' business plan has been to meet and exceed all regulatory
capital requirements. During the quarter ended June 30, 1994,
Northeast Savings met the definition of a well-capitalized thrift
and remained well-capitalized at September 30, 1994. During the
quarter, the Company's core capital ratio improved to 5.18% at
September 30, 1994, compared to 4.07% at September 30, 1993.
Tangible core capital and risk-based capital have improved to 5.18%
and 15.23% at September 30, 1994 compared to 4.06% and 10.22% at
September 30, 1993.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------
Northeast Federal had a net income of $2.6 million for the three
months ended September 30, 1994, resulting in a primary and fully
diluted net income per common share of $0.12 after preferred stock
dividend requirements. For the same quarter in 1993, the Company
reported a net loss of $1.9 million or a primary and fully diluted
net loss per common share of $0.20 after preferred stock dividend
requirements.
Northeast Federal had net income of $9.1 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 1994, resulting in a primary and fully
diluted net income per common share of $0.46 after preferred stock
dividend requirements. This net income for the first three
quarters of 1994 compares to projections made by the Company in May
1994 that it would earn between $9 and $11 million in 1994 or $0.40
to $0.50 per common share after preferred stock dividend
requirements. The Company has not revised its earnings projection
for 1994 and expects results for the twelve months ended
December 31, 1994 to be within the high end of the range previously
announced.
Interest Income and Expense
- ---------------------------
Total interest income was $48.0 million and $55.0 million for the
quarters ended September 30, 1994 and 1993, respectively. The
decrease in total interest income was due primarily to a decrease
in average interest-earning assets to $3.2 billion from $3.8
billion for the quarters ended September 30, 1994 and 1993,
respectively, offset by an increase of 22 basis points in the
weighted average yield earned on interest-earning assets, to 6.02%
for the quarter ended September 30, 1994 from 5.80% for the same
quarter in 1993. In addition, the decrease in total interest
income was impacted by a shift in the composition of the Company's
assets. For the quarter ended September 30, 1993, single-family
residential real estate loans earning an average rate of 6.01%,
comprised 58.8% of average earning assets, while mortgage-backed
securities, earning an average rate of 5.02%, made up only 28.7% of
average earning assets. However, in late 1993 in order to mitigate
credit risk and to enhance its risk-based capital ratios, the
Company converted over $300 million of loans into mortgage-backed
securities. In addition, a large portion of the proceeds from the
March 1994 sale of $876.1 million of primarily California
residential loans was invested in mortgage-backed securities. As
a consequence, for the quarter ended September 30, 1994, single-
family residential real estate loans earning an average rate of
6.51% comprised only 27.4% of average earning assets, while
mortgage-backed securities earning an average of 5.64% totaled
55.0% of average earning assets.
Total interest expense was $33.1 million for the three months ended
September 30, 1994, compared to $37.3 million for the same three
months in the previous year. Total interest expense was lower due
primarily from a decrease in average interest-bearing liabilities
to $3.2 billion from $3.8 billion for the quarters ended September
30, 1994 and 1993, respectively, offset by an increase of 28 basis
points in the cost of funds to 4.13% for the quarter ended
September 30, 1994 from 3.85% for the same quarter in 1993.
Net interest income totaled $14.9 million for the quarter ended
September 30, 1994, $2.8 million lower than the $17.7 million
reported for the same quarter of the previous year. The interest
rate spread also decreased, averaging 1.89% for the three months
ended September 30, 1994, compared to 1.95% for the three months
ended September 30, 1993. Net interest rate margins for the three-
month periods ended September 30, 1994 and 1993 were 1.91% and
1.90%, respectively. The interest rate spread is calculated by
subtracting the average rate paid for average total interest-
bearing liabilities from the average rate earned on average total
interest-earning assets. The interest rate margin is calculated by
dividing annualized net interest income by average total interest-
earning assets.
Provision for Loan Losses
- -------------------------
The provision for loan losses for the quarter ended
September 30, 1994 was $1.0 million, compared to $3.5 million for
the quarter ended September 30, 1993. The decrease in the
provision was due primarily to a securitization of $337 million in
single-family residential loans in November 1993 and to the March
1994 sale of $876.1 million of adjustable rate single-family
residential real estate loans, $40.5 million of which were non-
performing. As a result of these transactions, virtually all of
the Company's California loans were sold and the single-family
residential loan portfolio decreased to $865.0 million at September
30, 1994. Net charge-offs for the quarter ended September 30, 1994
were $905,000 compared to $3.2 million for the quarter ended
September 30, 1993, due primarily to the reduced risk in the
portfolio. At September 30, 1994 and December 31 and September 30,
1993, non-accrual loans totaled $30.5 million, $67.5 million, and
$72.7 million.
The allowance for loan losses at September 30, 1994 was $11.7
million, compared to $28.2 million at September 30, 1993. The
activity in the allowance for loan losses for the three months
ended September 30, 1994 and 1993 is as follows:

===== =====
In addition to the impact of the $337 million securitization and
$876.1 million loan sale, management believes that the decrease in
single-family residential loan net charge-offs is indicative of a
declining level of non-performing assets and a stabilization of
housing values in the Company's primary market areas.
Factors considered in determining the adequacy of the allowance for
loan losses were management's judgment regarding prevailing and
anticipated economic conditions, historical loan loss experience in
relation to outstanding loans, the diversification and size of the
loan portfolio, the results of the most recent regulatory
examinations available to the Association, the overall loan
portfolio quality, and the level of loan charge-offs. Although
management believes that the allowance for loan losses was adequate
at September 30, 1994, based on the quality of the loan portfolio
at that date, further additions to the allowance may be necessary
if a change in market conditions were to occur.
The following table shows the allocation of the allowance for loan
losses to the various types of loans and the allowance as a percent

Non-performing Assets
- ---------------------
The risks and uncertainties involved in originating loans may
result in loans becoming non-performing assets. Non-performing
assets include non-accrual loans and real estate and other assets
acquired in settlement of loans (REO). The following table

Non-accrual loans. Non-accrual loans are loans on which the
- -----------------
accrual of interest has been discontinued. The Association's
policy is to discontinue the accrual of interest on loans when
there is reasonable doubt as to its collectibility. Interest
accruals on loans are normally discontinued whenever the payment of
interest or principal is more than ninety days past due, or earlier
when conditions warrant it. For example, although a loan may be
current in payments, the Association discontinues accruing interest
on that loan when a foreclosure is brought about by other owner
defaults. When the interest accrual on a loan is discontinued, any
previously accrued interest is reversed. A non-accrual loan may be
restored to an accrual basis when principal and interest payments
are current and full payment of principal and interest is expected.
At September 30, 1994 and December 31 and September 30, 1993, the
Association had no loans more than ninety days past due on which it
was accruing interest.
At September 30, 1994, December 31 and September 30, 1993, non-
accrual loans were $30.5 million, $67.5 million, and $72.7 million,
respectively. The decrease in non-accrual loans between
December 31, 1993 and September 30, 1994 was due primarily to the
March 1994 loan sale as well as an overall decline in
delinquencies. The decreases in non-accrual loans between
September 30, 1993 and December 31, 1993 was due primarily to
foreclosures of the underlying collateral securing the loans, which
resulted in transfers to the REO balance, and to payoffs and
reinstatements of non-accrual loans. Virtually all residential
mortgage non-accrual loans are collateralized by properties with an
original loan-to-value ratio of 80% or less. At September 30, 1994
and December 31 and September 30, 1993, single-family residential
non-accrual loans were 92.6%, 97.5%, and 95.1%, respectively, of
total non-accrual loans.
Activity within the non-accrual loan portfolio was as follows:

* For purposes of this analysis, the unallocated portion of the allowance for loan losses
has been included in the single-family residential real estate allocation.
</FN>
The decrease in the ratio for single-family residential real estate
from December 31, 1993 to September 30, 1994 was due to the lower
credit risk in the portfolio, resulting from the aforementioned
securitization and loan sale which included $40.5 million of non-
accrual loans. While the portion of the allowance allocated to
income property loans increased from $800,000 at December 31, 1993
to $2.1 million at September 30, 1994, the ratio related to income
property loans decreased due to a $900,000 loan which went into
non-accrual status during the quarter ended September 30, 1994.
Real estate and other assets acquired in settlement of loans. REO
- ------------------------------------------------------------
was $16.7 million, $75.0 million, and $73.2 million at
September 30, 1994 and December 31 and September 30, 1993,
respectively. The $58.2 million decrease in REO from
December 31, 1993 to September 30, 1994 was due to sales of
California single-family residential REO totaling $41.1 million,
including three single transaction sales totaling $27.2 million,
the sale of two hotels included in income property REO totaling
$6.0 million, as well as to other REO sales, and a decrease in the
level of foreclosures. Included in income property REO of $3.9
million at September 30, 1994 were an industrial building, one
retail/commercial office, one single-family residential
subdivision, and one property zoned for residential development.
Also included in income property REO was a residential subdivision
purchased as part of the Rhode Island acquisition.
The activity in the Association's REO is presented in the following

total loss on the sale was $6.8 million, which was
partially offset by a provision of $6.0 million record-
ed in June in anticipation of the sale. Excluding this
sale, sales of REO for the quarter ended September 30,
1993 totaled $11.4 million.

Delinquent Loans

While non-accrual loans are generally loans which are more than
ninety days past due, delinquent loans are all loans more than
thirty days past due, including non-accrual loans. The following

Non-interest Income
- -------------------
Non-interest income totaled $5.5 million and $3.7 million for the
quarters ended September 30, 1994 and 1993, respectively. For the
same respective quarters, net gains on sales of securities totaled
$2.4 million and $254,000. The $2.1 million increase in net gains
on sales of securities resulted from realized capital gains
allocated to the Association by two limited partnerships in which
the Association invested and which are held in the available-for-
sale portfolio. Fee income remained relatively unchanged, totaling
$2.7 million and $2.6 million for the quarters ended September 30,
1994 and 1993, respectively.
Non-interest Expense
- --------------------
Total non-interest expense was $16.7 million and $22.5 million for
the quarters ended September 30, 1994 and 1993, respectively.
General and administrative expenses (compensation and benefits,
occupancy and equipment, and other general and administrative
expenses), were $13.7 million and $16.7 million for the quarters
ended September 30, 1994 and 1993, respectively. The decrease of
$3.0 million was due to lower general and administrative expenses
as a result of the aforementioned sale of ten of the Association's
branches during the second quarter and five branches during this
quarter, and the closing of the California and Colorado mortgage
offices during the first quarter. The Association's ratio of
general and administrative expenses to average total assets
decreased to 1.63% from 1.67% from the same quarter in the prior
year. Expenses relating to REO decreased significantly in the
September 30, 1994 quarter to $958,000 from $3.3 million for the
same quarter in the prior year. In addition, the level of REO
decreased to $16.7 million at September 30, 1994 from $73.2 million
a year earlier.
Income Taxes and Extraordinary Items
- ------------------------------------
Income tax expense totaled $146,000 for the three-month period
ended September 30, 1994 and represents federal and state tax
expense. In the tax benefit at September 30, 1993 is a settlement
with the State of New York for the years ended December 31, 1984
through December 31, 1990 which resulted in a one-time benefit of
$660,000, net of Federal tax expense. In the tax expense recorded
for the quarter ended September 30, 1994 is a $1.0 million reversal
of the deferred tax valuation allowance.
The Company recorded no extraordinary items for the three-month
periods ended September 30, 1994 and 1993.
NINE MONTHS 1993 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS 1992
- ---------------------------------------------
For the nine months ended September 30, 1994, the Company reported
net income of $9.1 million, which resulted in a primary and fully
diluted net income per common share of $0.46 after preferred stock
dividend requirements. For the same nine-month period in 1993, the
Company reported a net loss of $11.2 million, or a primary and
fully diluted net loss per common share of $1.53 after preferred
stock dividend requirements.
Total interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 1994
and 1993 was $141.3 million and $169.0 million, respectively. The
decrease in interest income was due partly to a decline of 36
basis points from 6.01 at September 30, 1993 in the average yield
on interest-earning assets, as well as to the factors discussed
previously in the quarterly Results of Operations.
Total interest expense was also lower, $97.5 million for the nine-
month period ended September 30, 1994, compared to $112.3 million
for the same nine months in 1993. The decrease was due to both
lower average balances on interest-bearing liabilities and a lower
average cost of funds. The cost of funds averaged 3.89% and 3.95%
for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 1994 and 1993,
respectively. The lower average cost of funds resulted principally
from lower average rates paid on retail deposits.
Net interest income totaled $43.8 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 1994, a $12.9 million reduction due to volume from
the $56.7 million reported for the same nine months last year. The
interest rate spread averaged 1.76% and 2.06% for the nine months
ended September 30, 1994 and 1993, respectively. For the same
respective periods, the interest rate margins were 1.74% and 2.00%.
The activity in the allowance for loan losses for the nine months
ended September 30, 1994 and 1993 was as follows:

Decreases in charge-offs on single-family residential loans and
income property loans were discussed previously in the quarterly
Results of Operations.
Total non-interest income totaled $35.6 million and $14.1 million
for the nine-months ended September 30, 1994 and 1993,
respectively. The increase in non-interest income resulted
principally from the March 1994 sale of $876.1 million of
adjustable rate single-family residential real estate loans and the
aforementioned branch sale, partially offset by a first quarter
valuation adjustment of $3.5 million to the Association's purchased
mortgage servicing rights, which was recorded in anticipation of
selling a portion of such rights due to the high cost of servicing
the portfolio.
Non-interest expense totaled $66.8 million and $71.8 million for
the nine-month periods ended September 30, 1994 and 1993. Included
in REO expense for the nine months ended September 30, 1994 was a
$7.0 million valuation adjustment recorded to facilitate an
accelerated sale of California single-family residential REO and
$2.5 million in writedowns of REO. For the same nine months last
year, REO expense included a $6.0 million provision for loss in
anticipation of the sale in a single transaction of a portion of
the Company's residential REO portfolio. Other factors affecting
non-interest expense were discussed previously in the quarterly
Results of Operations. Even though non-interest expense for the
nine-month period ended September 30, 1994 decreased from the same
period last year, the Company's ratio of annualized general and
administrative expenses increased to 1.79% from 1.71% at
September 30, 1994 and 1993, respectively, due to lower average
asset balances.
Income tax benefit totaled $295,000 for the nine-month period ended
September 30, 1994. Included in the tax benefit is a reversal of
$4.0 million of the deferred tax valuation allowance. The reversal
was based on a re-evaluation of the realizability of the Company's
deferred tax asset. Management believes that it is more likely
than not that the Company will realize this tax benefit. Included
in the tax benefit at September 30, 1993 is a settlement with the
State of New York for the years ended December 31, 1984 through
December 31, 1990 which resulted in a one-time benefit of $660,000,
net of Federal tax expense.
There were no extraordinary items for the nine month periods ended
September 30, 1994.
REGULATORY CAPITAL
- ------------------
The OTS capital requirements have three separate measures of
capital adequacy: the first is a tangible core capital requirement
of 1.5% of tangible assets; the second is a core capital
requirement of 3% of adjusted total assets; and the third is a
risk-based capital requirement that is 8% of risk-weighted assets.
An institution must have a leverage (core) ratio of 4% or greater
(unless it has a composite one CAMEL rating) in order to be
considered adequately capitalized under the Prompt Corrective
Action rules. Northeast Savings met the definition of a well-
capitalized thrift during the quarter ended June 30, 1994 and
remains well-capitalized at September 30, 1994.
The following table reflects the regulatory capital position of the
Association as well as the current regulatory capital requirements
at September 30, 1994 and 1993:

RHODE ISLAND COVERED ASSETS
- ---------------------------
On May 8, 1992, the Association acquired $315.0 million in assets
of four Rhode Island financial institutions which were in
receivership proceedings under the jurisdiction of the Superior
Court of Providence County, Rhode Island. Transactions completed
in conjunction with the acquisition of the assets of the financial
institutions are described in detail in the Company's Form 10-K.
Since, as described in the Company's December 31, 1993 Form 10-K,
the Association is protected against losses relative to the
contractual provisions of the loans acquired from the Rhode Island
institutions, including loans foreclosed upon by the Association
subsequent to acquisition (the Rhode Island covered assets), the
Association maintains these assets separately. At
September 30, 1994, the Association's portfolio of Rhode Island
covered assets was as follows:

The Rhode Island loans have delinquency rates which are generally
higher than those previously experienced by the Association on its
other lending activities. Since the Association is protected
against losses on these loans, based on contractual provisions, the
Rhode Island non-accrual loans are also segregated from the
Association's other non-accrual loans. Following is a table of

FINANCIAL CONDITION
- -------------------
Total assets were $3.3 billion at September 30, 1994 compared to
$3.9 billion at December 31 and September 30, 1993. Asset size and
composition have generally been determined by seeking the optimal
balance among regulatory capital requirements, liquidity, yield,
and risk.
Since 1989, the Company has pursued the operating strategy of
providing traditional thrift banking services, namely gathering
retail deposits and investing those deposits in adjustable rate
residential mortgages. In 1993, however, the Company adjusted this
strategy in consideration of the prevailing interest rate and
economic environment. The low interest rate environment of 1993
brought with it high prepayments on existing mortgages, extremely
competitive rates on adjustable rate mortgages in some markets, and
deposit disintermediation as bank deposits were transferred into
alternative investments such as mutual funds.
As a result of these factors, beginning in the third quarter of
1993, the Company modified its operating strategy both with regard
to lending and to balance sheet structure. This modified strategy
was intended to reduce the Company's loan concentration in
California, to reduce credit costs, and to increase the net
interest margin. In September of 1993, the Association changed its
strategy by sharply reducing the volume of adjustable rate
mortgages (ARMs) originated for portfolio in California and by
replacing the California ARM originations with 10 and 15 year fixed
rate mortgages originated in the Northeast and with the purchase of
both adjustable rate and 15 year fixed rate mortgage-backed
securities (MBSs). California portfolio production was sharply
curtailed in order to lower the concentration of California loans
in the loan portfolio due to the fact that initial discounts on ARM
rates in California exceeded the Association's pricing guidelines.
Fixed rate mortgages with terms of 15 years or less were added to
the portfolio in order to increase the net interest spread and to
reduce the degree to which the Association's interest rate risk
profile had become asset sensitive. MBSs were added to meet the
remaining asset generation needs of the Company. Displacing whole
loans, particularly those originated in California, with MBSs
reduced credit risk and increased the risk-based capital ratio. In
February 1994, the Company closed its loan origination offices in
California and Colorado. In March 1994, the Company sold $876.1
million of single-family adjustable rate residential mortgage
loans, $40.5 million of which were non-performing and 93% of which
were secured by California properties. Finally, in a series of
transactions during April and May 1994, three of which were single
transactions totaling $27.2 million, the Company sold virtually all
of its foreclosed assets in California.
Retail deposits, the Association's least expensive source of funds,
decreased to $2.4 billion at September 30, 1994, compared to $3.0
billion at December 31 and September 30, 1993. The decrease in
deposits was due primarily to the aforementioned sale of ten of the
Association's branches in the second quarter and 5 branches during
this quarter, a total of $513 million in deposits. In addition,
following the trend of low interest rates in the economy, the
Association has experienced a significant reduction in its cost of
retail deposits. These lower rates have caused some depositors who
are struggling to preserve their former level of income to seek
higher yields through alternative investments, and others to reduce
their outstanding high interest rate liabilities. Others have
withdrawn funds to meet their financial obligations due to a loss
in personal income.
CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
- -------------------------------
The primary source of funds for the Association is retail deposits,
while secondary sources include FHLB advances, other collateralized
borrowings including repurchase agreements, debentures, and
internally-generated cash flows resulting from the maturity,
amortization, and prepayment of assets as well as sales of loans
and securities from the available-for-sale portfolios.
The Association's ongoing principal use of capital resources
remains the origination of single-family residential mortgage
loans. The following table sets forth the composition of the
Association's single-family residential mortgage loan originations
for the periods indicated:

Total loans originated during the three months ended
September 30, 1994 and 1993 were $49.6 million and $185.1 million,
respectively. Total loan originations for the nine-month periods
ended September 30, 1994 and 1993 were $184.4 million and $582.4
million, respectively. At September 30, 1994, the Association was
committed to fund mortgage loans totaling $11.9 million, including
$8.1 million in adjustable rate mortgages. The Association expects
to fund such loans from its liquidity sources in 1994.
Net cash provided by operations during the nine months ended
September 30, 1994 totaled $20.9 million. Adjustments to net
income of $9.1 million provided $11.8 million of net cash,
including proceeds from sales of loans available-for-sale of $103.4
million. The proceeds from sale of loans resulted principally from
the sale of fixed rate loans which were originated by the
Association with the intent to sell in the secondary market. In
addition, loans originated for the available-for-sale portfolio
utilized $65.6 million in cash. Remaining adjustments to net
income utilized $26.0 million in cash.
Net cash provided by investing activities during the nine months
ended September 30, 1994 totaled $407.4 million. Proceeds from
sales of loans totaled $843.6 million. Principal collected on
loans and mortgage-backed securities generated cash of $177.9
million and $309.5 million, respectively, while maturities of
investment securities provided $73.5 million in cash. Proceeds
from sales of investment securities available-for-sale totaled
$286.3 million. Sales of REO generated $58.6 million in cash.
Loans originated used $124.7 million of cash, while purchases of
mortgage-backed securities and investment securities used cash of
$732.3 million and $505.3 million, respectively. All other
investing activities provided net cash of $20.5 million.
Net cash used in financing activities during the nine months ended
September 30, 1994 totaled $532.4 million and resulted primarily
from $503.1 million on the sale of deposits, other decreases in
retail deposits from December 31, 1993 used $63.4 million in cash
and include a $24.8 million reduction in brokered deposits. All
other financing activities provided net cash of $58.9 million.
The liquidity of the Association is measured by the ratio of its
liquid assets to the net withdrawable deposits and borrowings
payable in one year or less. A portion of these liquid assets are
in the form of non-interest bearing reserves required by Federal
Reserve Board regulations. For total transaction account deposits
of $46.8 million or less, regulations require a reserve of 3%. For
total transaction account deposits in excess of $46.8 million, a
10% reserve is required. The Federal Reserve Board may adjust the
latter reserve percentage within a range of 8-14%. The Association
is also subject to OTS regulations which require the maintenance of
a daily average balance of liquid assets equal to 5%. The ratio
averaged 5.13% for the three months ended September 30, 1994,
compared to 5.23% for the three months ended September 30, 1993.
In addition to the regulatory requirements, the average liquidity
ratio reflects management's expectations of future loan fundings,
operating needs, and the general economic and regulatory climate.
In addition, the Association is required by OTS regulations to
maintain a daily average balance of short-term liquid assets of 1%.
The ratio averaged 2.19% and 2.55% for the three months ended
September 30, 1994 and 1993, respectively.
Each of the Company's sources of liquidity is vulnerable to various
uncertainties beyond the control of the Company. Scheduled loan
payments are a relatively stable source of funds, while loan
prepayments and deposit flows vary widely in reaction to market
conditions, primarily prevailing interest rates. Asset sales are
influenced by general market interest rates and other unforeseen
market conditions. The Company's ability to borrow at attractive
rates is affected by its credit rating and other market conditions.
Increased capital remains a significant focus for the Association
in continuing to meet the standards for a well-capitalized
institution promulgated pursuant to the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (FDICIA). The ability of the
Company to make capital distributions is restricted by the limited
cash resources of the Company and the ability of the Company to
receive dividends from the Association. The Association's payment
of dividends is subject to regulatory limitations, particularly the
Prompt Corrective Action regulation, which prohibits the payment of
a dividend if such payment would cause the Association to become
undercapitalized. Also, the Company and the OTS entered into a
Dividend Limitation Agreement as a part of the holding company
approval process which prohibited the payment of dividends to the
holding company without prior written OTS approval if the
Association's capital is below its fully phased-in capital
requirement or if the payment of such dividends would cause its
capital to fall below its fully phased-in capital requirement.
On September 16, 1994, the Company's Board of Directors voted to
declare a stock dividend payable on October 1, 1994 on the
Company's $8.50 Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series B (the Series B
Preferred Stock) of one share of Series B Preferred Stock for each
$100 of the amount of dividends payable on October 1, 1994, and
accumulated and unpaid as of that date, to holders of record on
September 16, 1994. On October 1, 1994, the Company paid the
$892,220 of dividends then payable on the Series B Preferred Stock
through the issuance of an additional 8,923 shares of Series B
Preferred Stock.
In addition, the interest and principal repayment obligations on
the 9% Debentures constitute an impediment to the Company's ability
to pay cash dividends. The $40.3 million net balance of 9%
Debentures at September 30, 1994 require annual interest payments
of $3.6 million. In addition, the Company is required to
repurchase 6 2/3% of the 9% Debentures outstanding as of March 1,
1998 in each year commencing on May 1, 1998. Prior to May 1, 1997,
the Company may fulfill its interest payment obligation by the
issuance of additional 9% Debentures. In meeting this interest
obligation, the Company has issued an additional $6.8 million in 9%
Debentures, which are included in the outstanding principal at
September 30, 1994. Any such issuance, however, increases the
aggregate annual interest obligation and also the amount of 9%
Debentures required to be repurchased annually commencing
May 1, 1998.
INTEREST RATE RISK MANAGEMENT
- -----------------------------
For the quarter ended September 30, 1993 through the quarter ended
September 30, 1994, the Company's interest rate spread (Exhibit
99.3) decreased 6 basis points, averaging 1.89% and 1.95% for the
quarters ended September 30, 1994 and 1993, respectively. However,
for these same time frames, the Company's interest rate margin
increased to 1.91% from 1.90%. The Company continually monitors
the repricing characteristics of its interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities. The Company's one-year gap (Exhibit
99.1) at September 30, 1994 was a positive $81.9 million, or 2.44%
of assets, compared to a positive $557.7 million or 14.15% of
assets at September 30, 1993. The Company's interest rate
sensitivity analysis shows that the Company has little interest
rate risk resulting from mismatches between asset and liability
repricings beyond one year. Within one year, an excess of
liability maturities and repricings in the first six months is
offset by an excess of asset maturities and repricings in months
seven through twelve.
Exhibit 99.1 does not indicate, however, the interest rate risk
resulting from the several options which borrowers and depositors
have nor does it indicate the risks resulting from assets and
liabilities being tied to different interest rate indices.
Borrowers have the option to prepay loans at any time and to have
changes in rates on adjustable rate loans be constrained by
periodic and lifetime caps. Depositors have the option to withdraw
funds from certificates of deposit prior to maturity upon the
payment of a penalty. The Company's interest rate risk is due
primarily to the effect of these options, and particularly the
impact of periodic caps on adjustable rate loans. The Company is
also subject to basis risk to the extent that borrowings indexed to
the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) are used to fund assets
not indexed to LIBOR. As of September 30, 1994, the Company had
$36.4 million of borrowings indexed to LIBOR and $468.7 million of
fixed rate borrowings, the rates on which were set initially off
LIBOR. As of September 30, 1994, the Company had $9.5 million of
earning assets indexed to LIBOR.
REGULATIONS
- -----------
Proposed Amendment to Minimum Regulatory Capital Regulations. The
OTS recently proposed to amend its minimum regulatory capital
regulations by revising the definition of the term "stockholders'
equity" to incorporate a change in generally accepted accounting
principles required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB). SFAS No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Debt and Equity
Securities", which is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1993, and requires that most debt and equity
securities be reported at fair value, rather than at amortized
cost. With the implementation of SFAS No. 115, unrealized gains
and losses on available-for-sale securities will be included in
stockholders' equity under generally accepted accounting principles
and therefore the value of stockholders' equity will fluctuate.
Under the proposed rule, these unrealized gains and losses would be
included in core capital for purposes of calculating a savings
institution's leverage capital requirement and the OTS measures for
prompt corrective action and could cause an institution's capital
ratios to fluctuate based on changes in the value of the
institution's debt and equity securities which are held-for-sale.
Interstate Banking. The Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and
Branching Efficiency Act of 1994 (the Interstate Act), which was
recently passed by Congress, authorizes (1) interstate acquisitions
of banks by bank holding companies without geographic limitation
beginning one year after enactment of the Interstate Act, (2)
interstate mergers between insured banks with different home
states, subject to the ability of states to opt-out, and (3) any
state to enact laws permitting de novo branching by banks with a
home state other than such state. Specifically, beginning June 1,
1997, a bank may merge with a bank with a different home state as
long as neither of the home states have opted out of interstate
branching between the date of enactment of the Interstate Act and
May 31, 1997. Once a bank has established branches in a state
through an interstate merger transaction, such bank may establish
and acquire additional branches at any location in that state where
any bank involved in the interstate merger transaction could have
established or acquired branches under applicable Federal or state
law. The Interstate Act further provides that states may enact
laws permitting interstate merger transactions prior to June 1,
1997. If a state opts out of interstate branching within the
specified time period, no bank in any other state may establish a
branch in that state, either through an acquisition or de novo.
IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
- ----------------------------------------------
In October 1994, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 118, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a
Loan - Income Recognition and Disclosures" (SFAS 118). This amends
SFAS 114 to allow a creditor to use existing methods for
recognizing interest income on an impaired loan by eliminating the
provisions in SFAS 114 that describe how a creditor should report
income on an impaired loan.
SFAS 118 does not change the provisions in SFAS 114 that require a
creditor to measure impairment based on the present value of
expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective
interest rate, or as a practical expedient, at the observable
market price of the loan or the fair value of the collateral if the
loan is collateral dependent. As a result, SFAS 118 affects only
the classification of income (or expense) that results from changes
in the net carrying amount of the loan, not the total amount of
income (or expense) recognized.
SFAS 118 also acknowledges that a creditor's policies for
recognizing interest income and for charging off loans may result
in a recorded investment in an impaired loan that is less than the
present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the
loan's effective interest rate (or the observable market price of
the loan or the fair value of the collateral). In those cases,
this statement affects both the classification and the total amount
of income (or expense) recognized.
SFAS 118 amends the disclosure requirements in SFAS 114 to require
information about how a creditor recognizes interest income related
to impaired loans. This proposed amendment, effective upon
issuance, has no impact on the financial position or results of
operation of the Company.
In October 1994, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 119, "Disclosure about Derivative Financial
Instruments and Fair Value of Financial Instruments" (SFAS 119).
SFAS 119 requires improved disclosures about derivative financial
instruments - futures, forward, swap, or option contracts, or other
financial instruments with similar characteristics. It also amends
existing requirements of SFAS 105, "Disclosure of Information about
Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk and Financial
Instruments with Concentrations of Credit Risk," and SFAS 107,
"Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments."
SFAS 119 requires disclosures about amounts, nature, and terms of
derivative financial instruments that are not subject to SFAS 105
because they do not result in off-balance-sheet risk of accounting
loss. It requires that a distinction be made between financial
instruments held or issued for the purpose of trading (including
dealing or other activities reported in a trading account and
measured at fair value) and financial instruments held or issued
for purposes other than trading. It also amends SFAS 105 and 107
to require that distinction in certain disclosures required by
those Statements.
For derivative financial instruments held or issued for trading,
SFAS 119 requires disclosure of average, maximum, and minimum
aggregate fair values and net trading gains or losses. For
derivative financial instruments held or issued for purposes other
than trading it would require disclosure about those purposes,
about how the instruments are reported in financial statements, and
- - if the purpose is hedging anticipated transactions - about the
anticipated transactions, the amounts of hedging gains and losses
deferred, and the transactions or other events that result in
recognition of the deferred gains or losses in income. SFAS 119
also encourages, but does not require, quantitative information
about interest rate or other market risks of derivative financial
instruments, and also of other assets and liabilities, that is
consistent with the way the entity manages or adjusts risks and
that is useful for comparing the results of applying the entity's
strategies to its objectives for holding or issuing the derivative
financial instruments.
SFAS 119 also amends SFAS 107 to require that fair value
information be presented without combining, aggregating, or netting
the fair value of separate financial instruments of a different
class and be presented in one location, together with the related
carrying amounts, in a form that makes it clear whether the amounts
are favorable (assets) or unfavorable (liabilities).
SFAS 119 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal
years ending after December 15, 1994, except for entities with less
than $150 million in total assets. For those entities, the
effective date would be for financial statements issued for fiscal
years ending after December 15, 1995. Since the proposed
Derivative Statements is a disclosure document only, it would have
no impact on the financial position or results of operation of the
Company.
Selected Ratios and Statistics
- ------------------------------
The Company's annualized return on average assets was .31% for the
quarter ended September 30, 1994, compared to (0.19)% for the
quarter ended September 30, 1993. The annualized return on average
common equity was 7.33% for the three months ended
September 30, 1994, versus (12.38)% for the same period in 1993.
For the nine-month periods ended September 30, 1994 and 1993, the
Company's annualized return on average assets was .35% and (.38)%
respectively. The return on average common equity for the same
respective periods was 9.51% and (25.76)%.
PART II
ITEM 1 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
- --------------------------
On December 6, 1989, Northeast Savings filed a complaint in the
United States District Court for the District of Columbia against
the FDIC and the OTS, as successor regulatory agencies to the FSLIC
and the FHLBB. It was the position of the Association in the
litigation that the denial by the OTS and the FDIC of core capital
treatment of the adjustable rate preferred stock and the
elimination from capital, subject to limited inclusion during a
phaseout period, of supervisory goodwill constitutes a breach of
contract, as well as a taking of the Association's property without
just compensation or due process of law in violation of the Fifth
Amendment to the United States Constitution. The Association
sought a determination by the court to this effect and to enjoin
the defendants and their officers, agents, employees and attorneys,
and those persons in active concert or participation with them,
from enforcing the provisions of FIRREA and the OTS regulations or
from taking other actions that are inconsistent with their
contractual obligations to Northeast Savings. The suit sought an
injunction requiring the OTS and FDIC to abide by their contractual
agreements to recognize as regulatory capital the supervisory
goodwill booked by Northeast Savings as a result of its 1982
acquisition from the FSLIC of three insolvent thrifts. On July 16,
1991, the district court ruled that it lacked jurisdiction over the
action but that Northeast Savings could bring a damages action
against the government in the United States Claims Court. On July
8, 1992, the Association moved to voluntarily dismiss its appeal of
the district court decision dismissing its action seeking
injunctive relief. This motion was made with a view toward
refiling the Association's lawsuit against the government in the
United States Claims Court, so as to seek damages against the
United States rather than injunctive relief against the OTS and
FDIC. This motion was made for two reasons. First, by virtue of
the Association's greatly improved financial and regulatory capital
condition, including its compliance with all fully phased-in
capital requirements, and its tangible capital position exceeding
four percent, the Association determined that it was no longer in
need of injunctive relief. Rather, the Association determined that
it was now in its best interest to pursue a damages claim against
the United States in the Claims Court. Second, the Association
sought to dismiss its appeal and refile in the Claims Court because
of the adverse decision of the Court of Appeals for the D.C.
Circuit in another "supervisory goodwill" case, TransOhio Savings
-----------------
Bank, et al. v. Director, OTS, et al., 967 F.2d 598 (June 12,
- -------------------------------------
1992). Neither the OTS nor the FDIC opposed the Association's
motion. The D.C. Circuit granted the Association's motion to
voluntarily dismiss its appeal on July 9, 1992.
On August 12, 1992, Northeast Savings refiled its action in the
United States Claims Court, Northeast Savings, F.A. v. United
---------------------------------
States, No. 92-550. Note that, effective October 29, 1992, the
- ------
United States Claims Court was renamed the United States Court of
Federal Claims. Northeast Savings' complaint seeks monetary relief
against the United States on theories of breach of contract, taking
of property without just compensation, and deprivation of property
without due process of law. The United States has not yet filed an
answer to the Complaint. On May 25, 1993, a three-judge panel of
the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals ruled against the plaintiffs
in three other consolidated "supervisory goodwill" cases, holding
that the thrift institutions had not obtained an "unmistakable"
promise from the government that it would not change the law in
such a manner as to abrogate its contractual obligations and that
the plaintiffs therefore bore the risk of such a change in the law.
Winstar Corp. v. United States, No. 92-5164. On August 18, 1993,
- ------------------------------
however, the full Federal Circuit, acting in response to a Petition
for Rehearing with Suggestion for Rehearing In Banc filed by two of
the three plaintiffs in these cases, vacated the May 25 panel
decision, ordered the panel opinion withdrawn, and ordered that the
case be reheard by the full Court. Oral argument in the Winstar
-------
case was held on February 10, 1994. On June 3, 1993, the Court of
Federal Claims entered an order staying proceedings in Northeast
Savings' case pending further action by the Federal Circuit in the
Winstar case or any action taken by the Supreme Court on any
- -------
petition for a writ of certiorari in that case.
Another supervisory goodwill case, Resolution Trust Corporation v.
----------------------------
FSLIC (the Resolution Trust Corporation), was recently decided by
- -----
the Court of Appeals of the 10th Circuit (the 10th Circuit Court of
Appeals) in favor of the purchasers of Security Federal from the
FSLIC, whose purchase was made prior to FIRREA. Pursuant to an
arrangement with the FSLIC, the purchasers infused $6 million into
Security Federal, an insolvent institution, and thereby saved the
FSLIC the cost of liquidating Security Federal. Even with such
capital infusion, were it not for the treatment of supervisory
goodwill as capital, Security Federal would have remained
significantly under-capitalized at the time, and thereby would have
had to have been liquidated by the FSLIC.
As a result of the restriction on the use of supervisory goodwill
as capital pursuant to FIRREA and resulting OTS regulations, the
OTS determined that Security Federal was insolvent and in February
1990 ordered the purchasers to infuse additional capital into it.
In March of 1990, the purchasers notified the OTS that they were
rescinding the agreement to acquire the institution, tendered their
stock to the OTS, and requested the return of their capital
contribution. The OTS refused the tender, and the purchasers filed
suit seeking rescission and restitution for breach of contract. In
Resolution Trust Corporation, the FDIC and the OTS appealed a
- ----------------------------
district court's summary judgment ruling in favor of the purchasers
for breach of contract, holding that the treatment of goodwill as
regulatory capital was an express term of the overall contractual
agreement. The 10th Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed the lower
court's ruling and stated that "[b]ecause the Agencies breached
their agreement to treat supervisory goodwill...as assets for
regulatory purposes, we [the Court] agree that the investors [i.e.
purchasers] properly rescinded the agreement and thus are entitled
to restitution."
The Association is involved in litigation arising in the normal
course of business. Although the legal responsibility and
financial impact with respect to such litigation cannot presently
be estimated with certainty, management does not anticipate that
any of these matters will result in the payment of damages by the
Association that, in the aggregate, would be material in relation
to the consolidated results of operations or financial position of
the Company.
ITEM 2 - CHANGES IN SECURITIES
- ------------------------------
The ability of the Company to make capital distributions is
restricted by the OTS Capital Distribution Regulation, the Prompt
Corrective Action Regulation, and the Dividend Limitation Agreement
entered into in connection with the OTS approval of the holding
company reorganization. In general, the payment of dividends to
the holding company without prior OTS approval is prohibited if the
Association's capital is below its fully phased-in capital
requirement or if the payment of such dividends would cause its
capital to fall below its fully phased-in capital requirement and
otherwise is subject to additional limitations as discussed more
fully in Management's Discussion and Analysis - "Regulations".

For purposes of the above Interest Rate Sensitivity Analysis:
* Fixed rate assets are scheduled by actual maturity; adjustable rate assets are scheduled by the next repricing date; in both
cases, assets that have prepayment options are adjusted for the Company's estimate of prepayments.
* NOW accounts are assumed to decay at a rate of 5% per year.
* Regular savings accounts decay assumptions used have the effect of repricing $152.6 million funds in excess of the historical
average balance within six months. The historical average balance is assumed to decay at a rate of 5% per year.
* Loans do not include the allowance for loan loss of $11.7 million.
* Loans do not include non-accrual loans of $30.5 million.
