NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEARS ENDED JUNE 30, 2003, 2002 AND 2001 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION - HCB Bancshares, Inc. ("Bancshares"), a bank holding company, owns 100 percent of HEARTLAND Community Bank and its subsidiary (collectively the "Bank"). Bancshares' business is primarily that of owning the Bank and participating in the Bank's activities. The Bank provides a broad line of financial products to individuals and small to medium-sized businesses through banking offices located in Camden, Fordyce, Sheridan, and Bryant, Arkansas. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Bancshares and the Bank and are collectively referred to as the "Company". All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. USE OF ESTIMATES - 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 at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses and the valuation of the deferred tax asset. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS - For purposes of presentation in the consolidated statements of cash flows, "cash and cash equivalents" includes cash on hand and amounts due from depository institutions, which includes interest-bearing amounts available upon demand. INVESTMENT SECURITIES - The Company classifies investment securities into one of two categories: held to maturity or available for sale. The Company does not engage in trading activities. Debt securities that the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held to maturity and recorded at cost, adjusted for the amortization of premiums and the accretion of discounts. Investment securities that the Company intends to hold for indefinite periods of time are classified as available for sale and are recorded at fair value. Unrealized holding gains and losses are excluded from earnings and reported net of tax as a separate component of stockholders' equity until realized. Investment securities in the available for sale portfolio may be used as part of the Company's asset and liability management practices and may be sold in response to changes in interest rate risk, prepayment risk or other economic factors. Premiums are amortized into interest income using the interest method to the earlier of maturity or call date. Discounts are accreted into interest income using the interest method over the period to maturity. The specific identification method of accounting is used to compute gains or losses on the sales of investment securities. If the fair value of an investment security declines for reasons other than temporary market conditions, the carrying value of such a security is written down to fair value by a charge to operations. LOANS RECEIVABLE - Loans receivable that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or pay-off are stated at unpaid principal balances adjusted for any charge-offs, the allowance for loan losses, deferred loan fees or costs, and unamortized premiums or discounts. Interest income is recognized on the interest method. Deferred loan fees or costs and premiums and discounts on loans are amortized or accreted to income using the level-yield method over the remaining period to contractual maturity. 10 The accrual of interest on impaired loans is generally discontinued when, in management's opinion, the borrower may be unable to meet payments as they become due or when the loan becomes ninety days past due, whichever occurs first. When interest accrual is discontinued, all unpaid accrued interest is reversed. Interest income is subsequently recognized only to the extent cash payments in excess of principal due are received, until such time that in management's opinion, the borrower will be able to meet payments as they become due. ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES - The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance to provide for incurred but not yet realized losses. The Bank reviews its loans for impairment on a quarterly basis. Impairment is determined by assessing the probability that the borrower will not be able to fulfill the contractual terms of the agreement. If a loan is determined to be impaired, the amount of the impairment is measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate or by use of the observable market price of the loan or fair value of collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. Throughout the year management estimates the level of probable losses to determine whether the allowance for loan losses is appropriate considering the estimated losses existing in the portfolio. Based on these estimates, an amount is charged to the provision for loan losses and credited to the allowance for loan losses in order to adjust the allowance to a level determined by management to be appropriate relative to losses. The allowance for loan losses is increased by charges to income (provisions) and decreased by charge-offs, net of recoveries. Management's periodic evaluation of the appropriateness of the allowance is based on the Company's past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower's ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral and current economic conditions. Homogeneous loans are those that are considered to have common characteristics that provide for evaluation on an aggregate or pool basis. The Company considers the characteristics of (1) one-to-four family residential first mortgage loans; (2) automobile loans and; (3) consumer and home improvement loans to permit consideration of the appropriateness of the allowance for losses of each group of loans on a pool basis. The primary methodology used to determine the appropriateness of the allowance for losses includes segregating certain specific, poorly performing loans based on their performance characteristics from the pools of loans as to type and then applying a loss factor to the remaining pool balance based on several factors including classification of the loans as to grade, past loss experience, inherent risks, economic conditions in the primary market areas and other factors which usually are beyond the control of the Company. Those segregated specific loans are evaluated using the present value of future cash flows, usually determined by estimating the fair value of the loan's collateral reduced by any cost of selling and discounted at the loan's effective interest rate if the estimated time to receipt of monies is more than three months. Non-homogeneous loans are those loans that can be included in a particular loan type, such as commercial loans and multi-family and commercial first mortgage loans, but which differ in other characteristics to the extent that valuation on a pool basis is not valid. After segregating specific, poorly performing loans and applying the methodology as noted in the preceding paragraph for such specific loans, the remaining loans are evaluated based on payment experience, known difficulties in the borrowers' business or geographic area, loss experience, inherent risks and other factors usually beyond the control of the Company. These loans are then graded and a factor, based on experience, is applied to estimate the probable loss. Estimates of the probability of loan losses involve an exercise of judgment. While it is possible that in the near term the Company may sustain losses which are substantial in relation to the allowance for loan losses, it is the judgment of management that the allowance for loan losses reflected in the consolidated statements of financial condition is appropriate considering the estimated probable losses in the portfolio. REAL ESTATE HELD FOR SALE - Real estate acquired in settlement of loans is initially recorded at estimated fair value less estimated costs to sell and is subsequently carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less estimated disposal costs. Management periodically performs valuations, and an allowance for losses is established by a charge to operations to the extent that the carrying value of a property exceeds its estimated fair value. Costs relating to the development and improvement of the property are capitalized, whereas those relating to holding the property are expensed. Real estate acquired for sale is carried of the lower of cost or fair value less costs to sell. 11 PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT - Office premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. The Company computes depreciation of premises and equipment using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the individual assets which range from 5 to 50 years for buildings and improvements and from 3 to 10 years for furniture and equipment. GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS - Goodwill and other long-lived assets are tested periodically for impairment and written down to their fair value as necessary. TREASURY STOCK - Treasury stock is stated at cost and is determined by the first-in, first-out method. STOCK OPTIONS - The Company applies the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 in accounting for its stock option plan, as allowed under SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for options granted to employees. Had compensation cost for these plans been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates or repricing date for awards under those plans consistent with the methods of SFAS No. 123, the Company's pro forma net income and pro forma earnings per share would have been as follows: 2003 AS REPORTED PRO FORMA Net income (in thousands) $ 1,061 $ 1,048 Earnings per share: Basic $ 0.78 $ 0.77 Diluted $ 0.73 $ 0.72 2002 AS REPORTED PRO FORMA Net income (in thousands) $ 1,166 $ 1,146 Earnings per share: Basic $ 0.71 $ 0.70 Diluted $ 0.68 $ 0.67 2001 AS REPORTED PRO FORMA Net income (in thousands) $ 620 $ 529 Earnings per share: Basic $ 0.33 $ 0.28 Diluted $ 0.33 $ 0.28 LOAN ORIGINATION FEES - Loan origination fees and certain direct loan origination costs are deferred and the net fee or cost is recognized as an adjustment to interest income using the level-yield method over the contractual life of the loans. When a loan is fully repaid or sold, the amount of unamortized fee or cost is recorded in income. INCOME TAXES - The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are reflected at currently enacted income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes. The Company considers the need for a valuation allowance if, based on available evidence, deferred tax assets are not expected to be realized. INTEREST RATE RISK - The Bank's asset base is exposed to risk including the risk resulting from changes in interest rates and changes in the timing of cash flows. The Bank monitors the effect of such risks by considering the mismatch of the maturities of its assets and liabilities in the current interest rate environment and the sensitivity of assets and liabilities to changes in interest rates. The Bank's management has considered the effect of significant 12 increases and decreases in interest rates and believes such changes, if they occurred, would be manageable and would not affect the ability of the Bank to hold its assets as planned. However, the Bank is exposed to significant market risk in the event of significant and prolonged interest rate changes. EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN - Compensation expense for the Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP") is determined based on the average fair value of shares committed to be released during the period and is recognized as the shares are committed to be released. For the purposes of earnings per share, ESOP shares are included in weighted-average common shares outstanding as the shares are committed to be released. MANAGEMENT RECOGNITION PLAN - Compensation for Management Recognition Plan shares granted is based on the fair value of the shares at the date of grant and is recognized ratably over the vesting period. EARNINGS PER SHARE - Earnings per share ("EPS") of common stock has been computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Basic and diluted earnings per share were both calculated with 1,866,387 weighted-average common shares outstanding for the year ended June 30, 2001. Weighted-average common shares outstanding was the same for basic and diluted in that year. For the year ended June 30, 2002, basic earnings per share was calculated using 1,635,669 shares and dilutive earnings per share was calculated using 1,719,903 shares. For the year ended June 30, 2003, basic earnings per share was calculated using 1,363,626 shares and dilutive earnings per share was calculated using 1,448,146 shares. Potential dilutive common shares include the Stock Option Plan shares and the Management Recognition Plan shares. These potential common shares had no dilutive effect for the year ended June 30, 2001. However, for the years ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, the Management Recognition Plan was antidilutive, but the Stock Option Plan was dilutive by 84,520 and 84,234 shares, respectively. STOCK PURCHASED FOR OPTION BENEFIT TRUST - As of June 30, 2003, the Company has a total of 3,217 shares of its common stock in its stock option plan trust. These shares are included in treasury stock on the accompanying consolidated statement of financial condition, are available for sale, and are managed by the trustees specifically for funding stock option benefits provided to key employees. RECLASSIFICATIONS - Certain amounts in the 2002 and 2001 consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the classifications adopted for reporting in 2003. These reclassifications had no effect on net earnings. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS - The Financial Accounting Standards Board recently issued Statement No. 150 "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity." This Statement establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. This statement is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption SFAS No. 150 will have a material impact on the financial condition or operating results of the Company. 13 2.

For the year ended June 30, 2002, the Company realized $11,659 in gains and $10,141 in losses on sales of investment securities available for sale. At June 30, 2003, municipal securities with a carrying value of approximately $454,000 were pledged to collateralize public deposits. As of June 30, 2002, no securities were pledged as collateral for public deposits. At June 30, 2003 and 2002, mortgage-backed securities with a carrying value of approximately $15.4 million and $16.7 million, respectively, were pledged as collateral for Federal Home Loan Bank advances. 14 The scheduled maturities of available for sale securities at June 30, 2003, by contractual maturity are shown below.

The Company's policy calls for collateral or other forms of repayment assurance to be received from the borrower at the time of loan origination. Such collateral or other form of repayment assurance is subject to changes in economic value due to various factors beyond the control of the Company. At June 30, 2003, impaired loans totaled approximately $6.0 million and all had designated reserves for possible loan losses. Reserves relative to impaired loans at June 30, 2003, were approximately $550,000. 15 Approximately $480,000 in interest income was recognized on average impaired loans of approximately $5.95 million for the year ended June 30, 2003. At June 30, 2002, impaired loans totaled approximately $4.9 million and all had designated reserves for possible loan losses. Reserves relative to impaired loans at June 30, 2002, were approximately $426,000. Approximately $173,000 in interest income was recognized on average impaired loans of approximately $2.2 million for the year ended June 30, 2002. Interest recognized on impaired loans on a cash basis during 2003 and 2002 was immaterial. The Company is not committed to lend additional funds to debtors whose loans have been modified. At June 30, 2003 and 2002, the Company had zero and $396,000 in accruing loans over 90 days delinquent, respectively. Nonaccruing loans at June 30, 2003 and 2002, totaled $3.5 million and $1.5 million, respectively. The subsidiary Bank had extensions of credit to executive officers, directors and to companies in which the Banks' directors were principal owners, in the amount of approximately $67,000 as of June 30, 2003 and $1.8 million as of June 30, 2002. Balance, June 30, 2002 $ 1,759,829 New extensions of credit -- Repayments (1,692,431) ----------- Balance, June 30, 2003 $ 67,398 =========== In management's opinion, such loans were made in the ordinary course of business and were made on substantially the same terms (including interest rates and collateral) as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with other persons. Further, in management's opinion, these extensions of credit did not involve more than the normal risk of collectability or present other unfavorable features. Certain loans are originated for sale. These loans are typically held for sale only a short time, and do not represent a material amount in the aggregate prior to their sale. Normally the short time between origination and sale does not provide for significant differences between cost and market values. 4. ACCRUED INTEREST RECEIVABLE Accrued interest receivable consisted of the following at June 30: 2003 2002 Investment securities $ 828,294 $ 839,287 Loans 628,078 882,325 ---------- ---------- Total $1,456,372 $1,721,612 ========== ========== 5.

FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK STOCK The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank System. As a member of this system, it is required to maintain an investment in capital stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") in an amount equal to the greater of 1% of its outstanding home loans or 1/20 of its advances (borrowings) from the FHLB. No ready market 16 exists for such stock and it has no quoted market value but may be redeemed at par. The carrying value of the stock is its cost. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 required each FHLB to replace its existing capital stock with a new class or classes of capital stock, establish new minimum investment requirements for its members, and comply with new minimum leverage and risk-based capital requirements. The Bank is a member of the Dallas FHLB, which currently plans to implement its new capital plan on September 2, 2003. The new minimum investment requirement states that each member must maintain an investment in new Class B Stock equal to the sum of a membership investment requirement (0.20% of the member's total assets as of the previous December 31), and an activity-based investment requirement (4.25% of currently outstanding advances and certain new Mortgage Partnership Finance ("MPF") Program loans. As of June 30, 2003, the Bank is estimated to have a capital stock requirement of $3.4 million, well below its capital stock balance of $4.7 million as of the same date. 7. PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT Premises and equipment consisted of the following at June 30: 2003 2002 Land and buildings $ 5,521,876 $ 7,153,233 Furniture and equipment 3,580,334 3,667,962 ------------ ------------ Total 9,102,210 10,821,195 Accumulated depreciation (3,988,565) (3,708,984) ------------ ------------ Premises and equipment, net $ 5,113,645 $ 7,112,211 ============ ============ The decrease in premises and equipment includes a $407,000 write down of land held for investment in Camden, Arkansas which previously was to be the site of a new home office facility. These two parcels were purchased in 1996 and 1999 and significant costs were necessary to make the land suitable to build upon. The Board of Directors decided that in the near future it would not be in the best interests of the Company to expend the resources necessary to build a new home office facility. Since the land will not be utilized in the near future, appraisals were obtained in March 2003, and the land was written down to fair market value during that quarter. This amount was included in other noninterest expense. 8. DEPOSITS Deposits are summarized as follows at June 30: 2003 2002 Demand and NOW accounts, including noninterest-bearing deposits of $9,447,561 and $8,889,867 in 2003 and 2002, respectively $ 42,807,702 $ 39,092,410 Money market 4,751,127 5,911,715 Statement savings 7,927,966 8,010,973 Certificates of deposit 96,469,709 111,990,085 ------------ ------------ Total $151,956,504 $165,005,183 ============ ============ 17 The aggregate amount of short-term jumbo certificates of deposit with a minimum denomination of $100,000 was approximately $17.2 million and $19.3 million at June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. At June 30, 2003, scheduled maturities of certificates of deposit are as follows: Years ending June 30: 2004 $76,372,882 2005 17,025,525 2006 3,071,302 Thereafter -- ----------- Total $96,469,709 =========== Eligible deposits of the Bank are insured up to $100,000 by the Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF") of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"). Deposits from related parties held by the Company at June 30, 2003 and 2002, totaled $1,133,132 and $1,296,863, respectively. In management's opinion, such deposits were made in the ordinary course of business and were made on substantially the same terms (including interest rates) as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with other persons. 9. FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK ADVANCES The Bank pledges as collateral for FHLB advances its FHLB stock and has entered into blanket collateral agreements with the FHLB whereby the Bank agrees to maintain, free of other encumbrances, qualifying single family first mortgage loans with unpaid principal balances, when discounted to 75% of such balances, of at least 100% of total outstanding advances. Additionally the Bank has pledged mortgage-backed securities with a carrying value of approximately $15.4 million at June 30, 2003, as additional collateral.

The Bank changed its method of determining bad debt reserves for tax purposes following the year ended June 30, 1997. The amounts to be recaptured for income tax reporting purposes are considered by the Bank in the determination of the net deferred tax liability. The Company's deferred tax asset account was comprised of the following at June 30: 2003 2002 Deferred tax assets: Allowance for loan losses $ 585,425 $ 543,084 Write-down on land held for investment 178,797 -- Deferred compensation 370,410 388,868 Net operating loss carryforward 624,590 801,281 AMT credit carryforward 800,410 445,313 Other 50,523 140,367 ---------- ---------- Total deferred tax assets 2,610,155 2,318,913 ---------- ---------- Deferred tax liabilities: Premises and equipment 70,883 106,624 Unrealized gains on available for sale investments 1,378,270 960,427 Loan fees -- 1,200 FHLB dividends 500,402 465,675 ---------- ---------- Total deferred tax liabilities 1,949,555 1,533,926 ---------- ---------- Net deferred tax asset $ 660,600 $ 784,987 ========== ========== A deferred tax liability has not been recognized for the bad debt reserves of the Bank created in the tax years which began prior to December 31, 1987 (the base year). At June 30, 2003, the amount of these reserves totaled approximately $3,462,590 with an unrecognized deferred tax liability of $1,177,281. Such unrecognized deferred tax liability could be recognized in the future, in whole or in part, if (i) there is a change in federal tax law, (ii) the Bank fails to meet certain definitional tests and other conditions in the federal tax law, (iii) certain distributions are made with respect to the stock of the Bank, or (iv) the bad debt reserves are used for any purpose other than absorbing bad debt losses. As of June 30, 2003 the Company has a net operating loss carryforward of $1,882,908, of which $207,222, $1,120,698, and $554,988 expire in 2019, 2020, and 2021, respectively. The Company's AMT credit carryforward of $800,410 does not have an expiration date. 19 The portion of the net deferred tax asset resulting from net operating loss carryforward and AMT credit carryforward totals $1,425,000 as of June 30, 2003. The recoverability of this asset is entirely contingent upon the production of taxable income for income tax reporting purposes. Management anticipates that the Company will produce such income in the near future based on management's current forecasts of earnings and if necessary, management's tax and interest-rate risk planning strategy of selling available for sale tax exempt securities and reinvesting the proceeds into taxable income producing securities. The strategy does not anticipate significant taxable gains on the sale of the tax-exempt securities, but rather a shift of nontaxable interest income to taxable interest income. Should this strategy not result in a sufficient amount of net taxable income, the Company will determine the need for a valuation allowance for the potion of the net deferred tax asset resulting from the carryforwards. 11. BENEFIT PLANS EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN - The Company has established an employee stock ownership plan ("ESOP") to benefit substantially all employees. The ESOP has a note payable to Bancshares, the proceeds from which were used to purchase shares of common stock of Bancshares. The note receivable, presented in the statements of stockholders' equity as unearned ESOP shares, is to be repaid in installments of $211,600 on June 30th each year through 2006. Interest is based upon the prime rate, which is to be adjusted and paid annually. The note may be prepaid without penalty. The ESOP is funded by contributions made by the Bank in amounts sufficient to retire the debt. Compensation expense of $341,215, $288,665, and $179,882 was recognized during the years ended June 30, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Benefits become 100% vested after three years of credited service. Shares are released to participants proportionately as the loan is repaid. Dividends on allocated shares are recorded as dividends and charged to retained earnings. Dividends on unallocated shares are used to repay the loan and are treated as compensation expense. Forfeitures of nonvested benefits will be reallocated among remaining participating employees in the same proportion as contributions. At both June 30, 2003 and 2002, 21,160 shares were committed to be released by the ESOP to participant accounts. At June 30, 2003, there were 148,120 shares allocated to participant accounts and 63,480 unallocated shares. The fair value of the unallocated shares amounted to $1,088,682 (63,480 shares at $17.15 per share) at June 30, 2003. Participants with vested account balances leaving employment, generally, may elect to have their allocated shares distributed. In the case of a distribution of shares, which at the time of distribution are not readily tradable on an established securities market, the Company is required to issue a put option to the participant. The put option is priced using the fair market value as determined as of the most recent valuation date (prior to the exercise of such right) by an independent appraiser. Any excess of the total purchase price at which the participant may put the shares to the Company over the fair value of the shares at the date of the issuance of the option is recognized as expense to the Company with the fair value of the shares recorded as treasury stock. During the years ended June 30, 2003, June 30, 2002, and June 20, 2001 no put options were issued. STOCK OPTION PLAN - The Stock Option Plan ("SOP"), approved by the Company's stockholders during the year ended June 30, 1998, provides for a committee of the Company's Board of Directors to award incentive or non-incentive stock options, representing up to 317,400 shares of Company stock. Options granted to executive officers and directors vest 25% immediately and 25% on each of the three subsequent anniversary dates of the grant. Options granted to employee's vest 20% immediately upon grant, with the balance vesting in equal amounts on the four subsequent anniversary dates of the grant. Options granted vest immediately in the event of disability or death. Outstanding stock options can be exercised over a ten-year period from the date of grant. Vested options of terminated participants expire one year after the participant's termination date. Under the SOP, options have been granted to directors and key employees to purchase common stock of the Company. The exercise price in each case equals the fair market value of the Company's stock at the date of grant. During the year ended June 30, 2003, 25,000 option shares were granted at a price of $18.10 per option share. No new options were granted during the years ended June 30, 2002 or 2001. 20 A summary of the status of the Company's stock option plan as of June 30, 2003, and changes during the years ending June 30, 2002 and 2001, is presented below: WEIGHTED AVERAGE EXERCISE OPTIONS SHARES PRICE Outstanding at June 30, 2000 312,980 $ 9.14 Granted -- -- Exercised -- -- Forfeited 18,513 9.18 ------- ------ Outstanding at June 30, 2001 294,467 9.14 ------- ------ Granted -- -- Exercised 50,473 9.14 Forfeited 25,444 9.13 ------- ------ Outstanding at June 30, 2002 218,550 9.14 ------- ------ Granted 25,000 8.10 Exercised 75,163 9.14 Forfeited -- -- ------- ------ Outstanding at June 30, 2003 168,387 $10.47 ======= ====== Options exercisable at June 30, 2003 (vested) 149,637 $ 9.51 ======= ====== Exercise prices for options outstanding at June 30, 2003, range from $9.125 to $18.10 per share. The weighted average remaining contractual life of such shares was 5.6 years at June 30, 2003. The fair value of options granted was estimated on the date of grant using the binomial option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions: 2003 GRANTS Volatility 10.00 % Life of options 10.0 years Risk-free interest rate 3.53 % Dividend rate 1.93 % The weighted average fair value of options granted during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2003, was $3.03 per share. MANAGEMENT RECOGNITION PLAN - The Management Recognition Plan ("MRP"), approved by the Company's stockholders during the year ended June 30, 1998, provides for a committee of the Company's Board of Directors to award restricted stock to key officers as well as non-employee directors. The MRP authorizes the Company to grant up to 52,900 shares of Company stock. Compensation expense is recognized based on the fair market value of the shares on the grant date over the vesting period. Under the original plan, shares granted to directors and executive officers vest 25% at the grant date and 25% each May 1 afterward. Shares granted to non-directors and non executive officers vest 20% at the grant date and 20% each May 1 afterward. Shares granted will be deemed vested in the event of disability, or death. At June 30, 2003, all shares have been acquired that are necessary to meet the Plan's award requirements. The difference between the price at the date of grant and the actual purchase price is recorded as an adjustment to stockholders' equity as shares are vested. Approximately $34,000, $40,000 and $65,000 in compensation expense was recognized during the years ended June 30, 2003, 2002, and 2001, respectively. On May 17, 2000, all directors voluntarily elected to extend their vesting period three additional years to May 1, 2004. In addition, certain officers also voluntarily elected to adopt the three-year extension of their vesting period. On May 22, 2003, the 8,520 shares, which had been forfeited by former plan participants, were 21 granted at $18.10 per share. Of these shares, 8,210 shares were awarded to directors or executive officers and 310 shares were awarded to non-directors or executive officers. OFFICERS' AND DIRECTORS RETIREMENT PLAN - During the year ended June 30, 1996, the Bank adopted a "non-qualified" retirement plan for its officers and directors in recognition of their years of service to the Bank. The plan is an annuity contract plan whereby funds are to be set aside annually in a grantor trust, with the Bank acting as trustee of the Trust. Distributions are scheduled to be paid upon completion of six to ten years of service to the Bank. No tax deduction for the Plan is claimed until funds are paid to the beneficiaries. Future funding is dependent on continued service to the Bank and therefore is expensed as the plan is funded each year. For the years ended June 30, 2003, 2002 and 2001, contributions to the plan totaled approximately $29,000, $124,000, and $181,000, respectively. 401(k) PLAN - Effective July 1, 1993, employees of the Bank may participate in a 401(k) savings plan, whereby the employees may elect to make contributions pursuant to a salary reduction agreement upon reaching age 21 and completing one year of service. At its discretion, the Bank may make matching contributions to the plan. Employer contributions vest 20% each year beginning in the third year of service and become 100% vested in seven years. The Bank made no matching contribution during the years ended June 30, 2003, 2002 or 2001. EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS - Certain executive officers of the Bank and the Company have employment agreements with one to three year renewable terms. Such agreements provide for termination pay and other benefits under certain circumstances. As of June 30, 2003, aggregate termination pay is approximately $0.70 million. CHANGE-IN-CONTROL AGREEMENTS - As of June 30, 2003, certain officers of the Bank and the Company had change-in-control agreements with three-year renewable terms. Such agreements provide for benefits under circumstances of changes-in-control as defined in the agreements. The benefits provide for a range of 25% to 299% of the officers' compensation. As of June 30, 2003, the aggregate benefits total approximately $0.80 million. 12. SALE OF BRANCH On July 19, 2002, the Bank sold its Monticello branch to Simmons First Bank of South Arkansas. The sale included approximately $8.3 million in loans, $1.5 million in fixed assets, $0.2 million in other assets, and $13.2 million in deposits. The Bank recognized a premium on the deposits of approximately $0.9 million and the difference was paid in cash to the buyer. The Bank recognized a net gain on this sale of approximately $743,000. 13. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated statements of financial condition. The Company does not use financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk as part of its asset/liability management program or for trading purposes. The Company's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amounts of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses. The Company evaluates each customer's creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management's credit evaluation of the credit applicant. Such collateral consists primarily of residential properties. Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The 22 credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The Company had the following outstanding commitments at June 30, 2003: Undisbursed construction loans $4,783,023 Commitments to originate mortgage loans 989,918 Commitments to originate commercial loans 82,000 Unused lines of credit 2,055,580 ---------- Total $7,910,521 ========== The funding period for construction loans is generally less than nine months and commitments to originate mortgage loans are generally outstanding for 60 days or less. At June 30, 2003, interest rates on commitments are believed by management to approximate market rates. 14. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The estimated fair value amounts have been determined by the Company using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. However, considerable judgment is required to interpret market data to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize in a current market exchange. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. The estimated fair values of financial instruments are as follows: JUNE 30, 2003 JUNE 30, 2002 ESTIMATED ESTIMATED CARRYING FAIR CARRYING FAIR VALUE VALUE VALUE VALUE ASSETS: Cash and due from banks $ 3,003,656 $ 3,003,656 $ 3,492,257 $ 3,492,257 Interest-bearing deposits with banks 4,203,320 4,203,320 14,404,572 14,404,572 Investment securities: Available for sale 129,960,346 129,960,346 118,198,564 118,198,564 Loans receivable, net 100,779,545 103,394,671 124,176,898 127,424,573 Accrued interest receivable 1,456,372 1,456,372 1,721,612 1,721,612 Federal Home Loan Bank stock 4,704,100 4,704,100 4,709,900 4,709,900 LIABILITIES: Deposits: Demand, NOW, money market and statement savings 55,486,795 55,486,795 53,015,098 53,015,098 Certificates of deposit 96,469,709 96,867,264 111,990,085 112,396,949 Federal Home Loan Bank advances 69,068,534 77,791,523 82,263,936 86,780,344 Advance payments by borrowers for taxes and insurance 83,879 83,879 110,446 110,446 Accrued interest payable 563,620 563,620 740,008 740,008 For cash and due from banks, interest-bearing deposits with banks, Federal Home Loan Bank stock and accrued interest receivable, the carrying value is a reasonable estimate of fair value primarily because of the short-term nature of instruments or, as to Federal Home Loan Bank stock, the ability to sell the stock back to the Federal Home Loan Bank at cost. The fair value of investment securities is based on quoted market prices, dealer quotes and prices obtained from independent pricing services. The fair value of loans receivable is estimated based on present values using the rates currently offered for loans of similar remaining maturities at the reporting date. 23 The fair value of demand deposit accounts, NOW accounts, savings accounts and money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit and Federal Home Loan Bank advances is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits and borrowings of similar remaining maturities at the reporting date. For advance payments by borrowers for taxes and insurance and accrued interest payable the carrying value is a reasonable estimate of fair value, primarily because of the short-term nature of these instruments. Commitments are generally made at prevailing interest rates at the time of funding and are relatively short term. Therefore, there is no difference between the contract amount and fair value. The fair value estimates presented herein are based on pertinent information available to management as of June 30, 2003 and 2002. Although management is not aware of any factors that would significantly affect the estimated fair value amounts, such amounts have not been comprehensively revalued for purposes of these financial statements since the reporting date and, therefore, current estimates of fair value may differ significantly from the amounts presented herein. 15. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES In the ordinary course of business, the Company has various outstanding commitments and contingent liabilities that are not reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. In addition, the Company is a defendant in certain claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, the ultimate disposition of these matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial statements of the Company. In May, 1999, a shareholder filed a putative class action complaint against the Company and several current and former officers alleging that the defendants defrauded the plaintiff and other shareholder class members through various public statements and reports that had the supposed effect of artificially inflating the price the plaintiff and other putative class members paid to purchase the Company's common stock. The Company and the other defendants moved to dismiss the complaint. The federal district court granted the motion on March 31, 2001, but allowed plaintiffs 30 days from the date of the order to file an amended class action complaint. On August 28, 2001, the Company was informed by the federal district court that the case was dismissed with prejudice on August 27, 2001. 16. RETAINED EARNINGS Upon the Conversion, the Company established a special liquidation account for the benefit of eligible account holders and the supplemental eligible account holders in an amount equal to the net worth of the Bank as of the date of its latest statement of financial condition contained in the final offering circular used in connection with the Conversion. The liquidation account will be maintained for the benefit of eligible account holders and supplemental eligible account holders who continue to maintain their accounts in the Bank after Conversion. In the event of a complete liquidation (and only in such event), each eligible and supplemental eligible account holder will be entitled to receive a liquidation distribution from the liquidation account in an amount proportionate to the current adjusted qualifying balances for accounts then held. The Bank may not declare or pay cash dividends on its shares of common stock if the effect thereof would cause the Bank's stockholders' equity to be reduced below applicable regulatory capital maintenance requirements for insured institutions or below the amount of the special liquidation account referred to above. This requirement effectively limits the dividend paying ability of the Company in that the Company must maintain an investment in equity of the Bank sufficient to enable the Bank to meet its requirements as noted above. Required capital amounts are shown in Note 17 to the consolidated financial statements. Liquidation account balances are not maintained because of the cost of maintenance and the remote likelihood of complete liquidation. Additionally, the Bank is limited to distributions it may make to Bancshares without OTS approval if the distribution would cause the total distributions to exceed the Bank's net income for the year to date plus the Bank's net income (less distributions) for the preceding two years. Bancshares may use assets other than its investment in the Bank as a source of dividends. 24 17. REGULATORY MATTERS The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory--and possible additional discretionary--actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Bank's financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank's assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank's capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of tangible capital (as defined in the regulations) to tangible assets (as defined) and core capital (as defined) to adjusted total assets (as defined), and of total risk-based capital (as defined) to risk-weighted assets (as defined). As of June 30, 2003 and 2002, the most recent notification from the Office of Thrift Supervision categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized the Bank must maintain minimum core (Tier I core), Tier I risk-based, and total risk-based ratios as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank's category. The Bank's actual capital amounts (in thousands) and ratios are also presented in the tables: TO BE CATEGORIZED AS WELL CAPITALIZED UNDER PROMPT FOR CAPITAL CORRECTIVE ACTUAL ADEQUACY PURPOSES ACTION PROVISIONS AMOUNT RATIO AMOUNT RATIO AMOUNT RATIO AS OF JUNE 30, 2003: Tier I (Core) Capital to Adjusted Total Assets $23,056 9.39 % $ 9,821 4.00 % $12,276 5.00 % Total Risk-Based Capital to Risk-weighted Assets 24,459 21.83 % 8,962 8.00 % 11,202 10.00 % Tier I (Core) Capital to Risk-weighted Assets 23,056 20.58 % N/A N/A 6,721 6.00 % Tangible Capital to Tangible Assets 23,056 9.39 % 3,683 1.50 % N/A N/A AS OF JUNE 30, 2002: Tier I (Core) Capital to Adjusted Total Assets $21,396 7.88 % $10,861 4.00 % $13,576 5.00 % Total Risk-Based Capital to Risk-weighted Assets 23,025 17.06 % 10,798 8.00 % 13,497 10.00 % Tier I (Core) Capital to Risk-weighted Assets 21,396 15.85 % N/A N/A 8,098 6.00 % Tangible Capital to Tangible Assets 21,396 7.88 % 4,073 1.50 % N/A N/A Regulations require the Bank to maintain an amount equal to 4% of deposits (net of loans collateralized by deposits) plus short-term borrowings in cash and U.S. Government and other approved securities. 25 18.
