However, all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of operations for the nine and three month period ended September 30, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the entire fiscal year. The Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 1995, included in the Company's Form 10-K, should be read in conjunction with these statements. Note 2 - Holding Company Reorganization ------------------------------ On July 12, 1995, the Company completed the acquisition of Baltimore American Savings Bank, FSB (the "Bank") pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization in which the Bank became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, a newly formed holding company incorporated by the Bank for that purpose. Under the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, each outstanding share, other than shares as to which dissenters' rights were properly exercised, of the common stock, $1.00 par value per share, of the Bank (the "Bank's Common Stock") was converted into one share of the common stock $.01 par value per share, of the Company (the "Common Stock") and the former holders of the Bank's Common Stock became the holders of all the outstanding Common Stock. For the periods prior to July 12, 1995, the financial statements of the Company consist of the financial statements of the Bank. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS GENERAL PERSPECTIVE - ------------------- Year-to-date earnings were $(0.81) per share, as compared with $(0.30) per share for the same period in 1995. The reduction in earnings per share of $(0.51) from the same period last year was the direct result of a SAIF Special Assessment of $0.65 per $100 of deposits, using the deposit base as of March 31, 1995. FINANCIAL CONDITION - ------------------- General Overview - ---------------- Total assets decreased by $901,059 or 3.11% during the nine months ended September 30, 1996. The decrease in total assets was a result of the decrease in loans receivable, net; secondary market funding receivable; investment securities held-to-maturity and all other assets. "Table 1. Utilization of Assets" exhibits for the periods indicated certain consolidated balance sheet items related to the financial structure of Quantum Financial Holdings, Inc. _________________________________________________________________ TABLE 1 Utilization of Assets - ----------------------------------------------------------------- September 30, December 31, 1996 1995 Difference ------- ------- ------------------- Cash and due from banks $ 1,125,788 $ 1,063,563 $ 62,225 5.85% Federal funds sold 472,634 509,018 (36,384) (7.15) Investment securities held-to-maturity 462,699 564,927 (102,228) (18.10) Loans receivable, Net 21,433,044 22,006,556 (573,512) (2.61) Secondary market funding receivable 68,929 525,732 (456,803) (86.89) ----------- ----------- --------- ------ Residential Real Estate Owned 1,579,681 1,524,583 55,098 3.61 Commercial Real Estate Owned 1,299,220 1,263,292 35,928 2.84 All other assets 1,640,672 1,526,055 (114,617) (7.51) ----------- ----------- --------- ------ $28,082,667 $28,983,726 $(901,059) (3.11)% =========== =========== ========= ====== The decrease in loans receivable, net is the result of a combination of loan payoffs and mortgage customers opting for the superior pricing in the secondary market. The decrease in secondary market funding receivable is the result of a faster turn-around time by the investors in purchasing loans from Baltimore American, and the slow-down in the production of mortgage loans. The decrease in investment securities held-to- maturity is a function of the low investment yield available to Baltimore American and the achievement of the required liquidity ratio. The decrease in other assets is the result of a decrease in accrued interest receivable, which is a function of the reduced portfolio loan volume and the depreciation of premises and equipment. Commercial real estate owned comprises commercial real estate that was foreclosed upon by the Company. Of the $1,299,220 in commercial real estate, $1,177,329 represents Sheridan Station Shopping Center, which is 33,014 square feet and is comprised of eleven (11) tenant spaces, with 127 parking spaces available. As of September 30, 1996, the center is seventy percent (70%) leased and generated operating income of $162,024 and operating expenses of $73,459 for pretax income of $88,565, which is included as other operating income in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the nine and three months ended September 30, 1996. During the first nine months of 1996, Management has completed the renovation of the entire shopping center. New tenants have been acquired, thus rental income is increasing. Management has been negotiating with several prospective buyers and will participate in an exclusive, private auction in November if a prior sale has not been consummated. Management continues to actively market this property for sale and intends to sell the property as soon as a viable buyer is identified. However, no assurance can be made that a sale will be consummated or that losses on the sale or from operations prior to the sale will not be realized. Management believes that an adequate allowance for any potential losses on the ultimate sale of the property has been provided as of September 30, 1996. In addition, commercial real estate owned includes a one acre parcel of commercial property located in Anne Arundel County on Ridge Road in the amount of $121,891. This asset is over five years old and is now considered real estate held for investment. As such, the balance at which the property is carried reduces the risk-based capital of the Company by that amount. Although the Company believes its interest in this property is currently adequately secure, there is no assurance that the property will be sold or that Baltimore American will recoup its investment. Residential real estate owned comprises residential real estate that was foreclosed upon by the Company. Of the $1,579,681 in residential real estate, $1,497,639 represents residential homes and $82,042 represents residential land owned by the Company. Management is actively marketing these properties and intends to sell these properties as soon as viable buyers are identified. During the nine months ended September 30, 1996, the Company entered into contracts to sell six properties. Out of those six properties, one settled in June, one settled in July, and three more are currently expected to settle in November. The buyer has withdrawn the other contract. In the interim, and where possible, the Company is rehabilitating these homes and renting them out to low- and moderate-income families. The rental income is being applied directly to the outstanding balance, reducing the Company's exposure and enhancing the property's marketability. It is worth noting that management was awarded citations by Baltimore's Mayor Schmoke and by Mary Pat Clark, President of the Baltimore City Council, in recognition of its commitment in building strong communities. While management believes it will be able to find buyers in the future, no assurance can be made that buyers will be found or that losses on the sale will not be realized. Management believes that an adequate allowance for any potential losses on the ultimate sale of these properties has been provided as of September 30, 1996. Total liabilities decreased by $823,214 or 3.07% during the nine months ended September 30, 1996 primarily due to the repayment of Federal Home Loan Bank Advances and a reduction in accrued expenses (see Table 2. Source of Funds). The increase in deposits is the result of aggressive marketing to established customers to increase their deposit base within the Company. Management reduced $2 million in advances with Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta. Other borrowed money, representing the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP), was reduced by $9,000, which is the principal amount of the loan paid each year. _________________________________________________________________ TABLE 2 Sources of Funds - ----------------------------------------------------------------- September 30, December 31, 1996 1995 Difference ------- ----------- ------------------- Deposits $25,610,993 $24,546,708 $ 1,064,285 4.34% Federal Home Loan Bank Advances 0 2,000,000 (2,000,000) (100.00) Accrued Expenses 173,439 203,431 (29,992) (14.74) Other Liabilities 169,993 18,500 151,493 818.88 Other Borrowed Money 18,000 27,000 (9,000) (33.33) ----------- ----------- ---------- ------ $25,972,425 $26,795,639 $ (823,214) (3.07)% =========== =========== =========== ====== Liquidity Adequate liquidity must be maintained to fund deposit withdrawals, to meet customers' borrowing needs, to take advantage of investment opportunities, and to maintain the required levels of reserves. On the asset side, the primary sources of liquidity are cash and due from banks, investment securities, federal funds, and scheduled repayments on outstanding loans. On the liability side, the primary sources of liquidity are deposit growth. Management evaluates the Company's liquidity position daily to maintain a level conducive to efficient operations and to satisfy regulatory requirements. Attention is directed primarily to assets and liabilities that mature or can be repriced within one year. The Company matches the maturities, to the extent possible, of its assets and liabilities to minimize variability in net interest income; this practice helps to minimize interest rate risk. Prudent risks are taken, however, by leaving certain assets and liabilities unmatched in an effort to benefit from the interest rate sensitivity inherent in the U.S. monetary system. The minimum regulatory required level of long-term liquidity is currently 5% of total deposits and borrowed money; the minimum required short-term level is 1%. The liquidity level of the Company at September 30, 1996, as measured for regulatory purposes, was approximately 6.12% for both long-and short-term purposes. Management recognizes that it is excessively liquid and will utilize the excess liquidity for either investment in loans or the reduction of high yielding certificates of deposit with pending maturities. Management believes the Company can meet its obligations of outstanding loan commitments and at the same time maintain liquidity in excess of the minimum regulatory requirement without having to borrow funds. Capital Resources The Company's Stockholders' Equity was $2,110,242 or 7.60% of total assets on June 30, 1996 compared to $2,188,087 or 7.54% on December 31, 1995. Although Stockholders' Equity was reduced as a result of the third quarter loss created by the SAIF Special Assessment, the percentage of Stockholders' Equity to Total Assets increased as a result of the decrease in total assets. Quantum Financial Holdings, Inc. exceeds all regulatory requirements for capital. Management continually reviews and identifies areas of growth opportunity. Table 3. Regulatory Capital Requirements represents the Company's position to its various minimum regulatory capital requirements at September 30, 1996. _________________________________________________________________ TABLE 3 Regulatory Capital Requirements - ----------------------------------------------------------------- September 30, 1996 (unaudited) ----------------------------- Percentage Amount of Assets* ------ ---------- (In thousands) Tangible Capital $2,025 7.23% Tangible Capital Requirement 420 1.50% ------ ----- Excess $1,605 5.73% ====== ===== Core Capital $2,025 7.23% Core Capital Requirement 840 3.00% ------ ----- Excess $1,185 4.23% ====== ===== Total Capital $1,474 11.57% (Core and Supplementary Capital) Risk-Based Capital Requirement 659 8.00% ------ ----- Excess $ 815 3.57% ====== ===== <FN> __________________ *Based on adjusted total assets of $28,006,000 for purposes of the tangible capital and core capital requirements, and risk- weighted assets of $18,428,000 for purposes of the risk-based capital requirements. </FN> RESULTS OF OPERATIONS General Overview For the nine months ended September 30, 1996, the Company posted a loss of $86,846, as compared to a loss of $32,306 for the same period in 1995. For the three months ended September 30, 1996, the Company posted a loss of $113,677, as compared to a loss of $75,687 for the same period in 1995. The loss reflected as of September 30, 1996 is the result of the SAIF Special Assessment. Earnings per share of common stock were $(0.81) per share for the nine months ended September 30, 1996, as compared to $(0.30) per share for the same period in 1995. For the three months ended September 30, 1996, earnings per share of common stock were $(1.06) per share, as compared to $(0.70) per share for the same period in 1995. Table 4. Operations Items as of June 30, 1996 exhibits for the periods indicated certain consolidated statement of operations items which contributed to earnings. Net Interest Income Net interest income is the foundation and core of the Company's earnings, representing the difference between total interest and fees earned on all loans, investments and other interest earning assets, and the total interest paid on deposits and borrowings. For the nine months ended September 30, 1996, net interest income was $637,097, as compared with $689,815 for the same period in 1995. For the three months ended September 30, 1996, net interest income was $204,929, as compared with $227,413 for the same period in 1995. For nine months ended September 30, 1996, interest income increased by $90,287 or 5.59% as compared with the same period in 1995. This was the result of an increase in loan yields charged for portfolio loans and an increase in investments and the yields paid on investments. Interest income was $11,589 or 2.08% less for the three months ended September 30, 1996, as compared with the same period in 1995. For the nine months ended September 30, 1996, interest expense increased by $143,005 or 15.47% as compared with the same period in 1995. This was the result of an increase in the volume of deposits and the yield increases paid on deposits as older deposits matured. Interest expense was $10,895 or 3.31% greater for the three months ended September 30, 1996, as compared with the same period in 1995. In recognition of the nonperforming loans and the inherent risk in lending, Management has established a provision for loan losses. The provision for loan losses is a reserve of funds established to absorb potential loan losses after evaluating the asset portfolio (current economic conditions, changes in the nature and volume of lending, and past loan loss experience, as well as other factors). Upon evaluation of the future trends of general economic conditions in this country and in particular the Company's market area, Management and the Board of Directors decided to continue to reserve additional funds in regard to the future economic trends that might have an effect on the portfolio of loans.

IMPACT OF INFLATION AND CHANGING PRICES The impact of inflation on the Company is reflected primarily in the increased cost of operations. A portion of these increased costs are generally passed on to customers in the form of increased service fees. Because the Company's assets and liabilities are virtually all monetary in nature, reinvestment and prepayment rate fluctuations more significantly impact the Company's performance than the effects of inflation. Volatile interest rate environments require Management to maintain acceptable levels of liquidity and to maintain proper maturity structure of the Company's assets and liability. In structuring fees, negotiating loan margins, and developing customer relationships, Management concentrates its efforts on maximizing earnings, while attempting to contain increases in operating expenses. Management and the Board of Directors continually review the feasibility of new and additional fee-generating services to offset the effects of inflation and changing prices. Management and the Board of Directors perform this function with the objective of increased earnings.
