MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FINANCIAL CONDITION ASSETS. Total assets decreased by $3.9 million, or 5.3%, from $73.4 million at December 31, 1995 to $69.5 million at September 30, 1996. The decrease consisted primarily of decreases in cash and cash equivalents and investment securities of $3.7 million and $2.9 million, respectively, offset by increases in loans receivable, net, and mortgage-backed securities held to maturity of $1.2 million and $1.5 million, respectively. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS. The $3.7 million decrease in cash and cash equivalents, or 56.9%, is primarily attributable to cash utilized during the period of approximately $1.6 million to pay dividends, and $1.2 million to purchase treasury stock. The remaining decrease in cash resulted from purchases of mortgage-backed securities. The $1.6 million decrease in cash resulting from the payment of dividends included $1.4 million in dividends declared in 1995, but not paid until 1996. INVESTMENT SECURITIES. The Company's investment portfolio declined $2.9 million, or 13.5%, from $21.4 million at December 31, 1995, to $18.5 million at September 30, 1996. The decline was attributable to lower levels of purchases during the period in order to use cash generated from scheduled maturities for other financing activities. LOANS RECEIVABLE. Loans receivable increased $1.2 million, or 7.1%, from $16.9 million at December 31, 1995, to $18.1 million at September 30, 1996. Mortgage loan demand increased during the third quarter of 1996, primarily in single family dwelling loans made at variable interest rates. MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES. The Company continues to invest heavily in mortgage-backed securities. The portfolio increased $1.5 million, or 5.4%, from $27.6 million at December 31, 1995, to $29.1 million at September 30, 1996. The increase reflects a normal replenishment of the portfolio during the period. DEPOSITS. Deposits decreased by $1.8 million, or 3.3%, from $53.3 million at December 31, 1995, to $51.5 million at September 30, 1996. The Company continues to offer competitive interest rates on deposits, but due to adequate liquidity levels, has found it unnecessary at this time to actively solicit new deposit accounts. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY. Stockholders' equity decreased $1.1 million, or 5.9%, from $18.5 million at December 31, 1995, to $17.4 million at September 30, 1996. The decrease was largely due to the purchase of treasury stock during the period for $1.2 million. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 AS COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995 NET INCOME. Net income decreased $167,877, or 98.0%, from $171,364 for the 1995 quarter to $3,487 for the 1996 quarter. The primary reason for the decline was a $338,631 pretax charge in the third quarter of 1996, reflecting the consequences of the one-time assessment by the FDIC to restore the SAIF insurance fund to the statutorily prescribed level of 1.25% of insured deposits. If not for this one-time assessment, net income for the 1996 quarter would have been $226,983, or a 32.5% increase, over the 1995 quarter. See note (10) to the consolidated financial statements. -11- NET INTEREST INCOME. For the 1996 three month period, net interest income increased $60,518, or 12.4%, from $486,908 for the 1995 period to $547,426 for 1996. The increase resulted from an increase in interest income of $15,602 and a decrease in interest expense of $44,916. INTEREST INCOME. The $15,602, or 1.3%, increase in interest income for the third quarter resulted from increases in interest income on mortgage loans and investment securities of $41,393 and $34,589, which was partially offset by decreases in interest income on mortgage-backed and related securities and other interest-earning assets of $11,132 and $47,043, respectively. The increase in mortgage loan interest is largely due to upward rate adjustments on the Bank's variable rate portfolio during 1996, and to a lesser extent, from increased volume. The increase in interest on investment securities is due to a higher yielding portfolio in 1996 as compared to 1995, offset by a modest decline in volume. Mortgage-backed and related securities interest declined due to a temporary 1996 third quarter decrease in the average volume of the portfolio as compared to the 1995 comparable quarter. Interest from other-interest earning assets declined due to the significant decline during the 1996 quarter in the average balances of other interest-earning assets. INTEREST EXPENSES. The $44,916, or 6.5%, decrease in interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 1996 as compared to 1995, is reflective of the decline during 1996 in the average balances of interest-bearing liabilities as compared to the 1995 quarter. Due to ample levels of liquidity, management has found it unnecessary in 1996 to solicit new funding sources in the form of deposits. NON-INTEREST INCOME. For the three months ended September 30, 1996, as compared to 1995, non-interest income increased $1,764, to $3,036. The Bank does not generate significant levels of non-interest income. NON-INTEREST EXPENSE. For the first three months of 1996, non-interest expense increased $319,738, or 139.5%. Without the $338,631 charge for the special one-time SAIF assessment as described above, non-interest expense would have decreased by $18,893, or 8.2%. Of the $319,738 total increase, $354,383 was due to increases in the SAIF deposit insurance premiums, which was partially offset by reductions in compensation and benefits expense of $20,658, or 18.5%, and professional services of $16,263, or 50.6%. The decrease in compensation and benefits included a reduction in ESOP compensation expense of $19,919 due to the Company electing to utilize dividends on unallocated ESOP shares to pay the quarterly debt service requirements during the period. Professional services declined due to the timing of expenditures associated with the Company operating as a public company. PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES. The provision for income taxes declined for the three months ending September 30, 1996 as compared to 1995 due to lower pretax income. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 AS COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995 NET INCOME. Net income decreased $214,163, or 38.5%, from $556,509 for the 1995 nine month period to $342,346 for the first three quarters of 1996. If not for the consequences of the one-time SAIF special assessment as described above, the 1996 nine month period net income would have been $565,842, or a 1.7% increase, over 1995. -12- NET INTEREST INCOME. For the 1996 nine month period, net interest income decreased $42,906, or 2.7%, to $1,530,368 for the 1996 period from $1,573,274 for 1995. The decrease resulted from an increase in interest income of $20,715, which was more than offset by the $63,621 increase in interest expense. INTEREST INCOME. The $20,715, or 0.6%, increase in interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 as compared to 1995, resulted primarily from increases in interest income on mortgage loans of $189,509, offset by decreases in interest income on investment securities, mortgage-backed and related securities and other interest-earning assets of $16,302, $81,449 and $68,610, respectively. The increase in mortgage loan interest reflects the upward rate adjustments on the Bank's variable rate loan portfolio during 1996, most of these loans being originated during 1995. The decrease in interest on investment securities is due to lower volumes during 1996 as compared to 1995, offset by a modest increase in yields. Mortgage-backed and related securities interest declined due to lower 1996 average volumes of the portfolio as compared to the 1995. Interest from other-interest earning assets declined due to the significant decline during the nine months ended September 30, 1996 in the average balances of other interest-earning assets as compared to the 1995 comparable period. INTEREST EXPENSE. The $63,621, or 3.2%, increase in interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 as compared to 1995, reflects the increase in market rates of interest in 1996 as compared to 1995, offset in 1996 by a decline in the average balances of interest-bearing liabilities. NON-INTEREST INCOME. For the nine months ended September 30, 1996 as compared to 1995, non-interest income increased $18,005, from $5,756 to $23,761. The largest factor contributing to the increase was the $14,181 in gains on foreclosed real estate during 1996, such gains representing recoveries of losses on sales of foreclosed real estate in prior years. NON-INTEREST EXPENSE. For the nine months ended September 30, 1996, non-interest expense increased $332,269, or 45.6%. Without the $338,631 charge for the one-time SAIF special assessment as described above, non-interest expense would have decreased by $6,362, or 0.87%. Of the $332,269 total increase, $322,544 was due to increases in the SAIF deposit insurance premiums, while taxes other than income taxes and other non-interest expenses increased by $10,277 and $20,466, respectively. Compensation and benefits expense declined by $25,060 for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 as compared to 1995. The decrease in compensation and benefits included a reduction in ESOP compensation expense of $51,292 due to the Company electing to utilize dividends on unallocated ESOP shares to pay the first three quarterly debt service payments during the period, which was partially offset by an increase in RRP compensation expense of $45,428. The remaining portion of the decrease resulted from the Company capitalizing more salaries and wages during 1996 as compared to 1995, as loan origination costs. Taxes other than income taxes increased due to a higher taxable base for purposes of calculating the Kentucky building and loan tax. PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES. The provision for income taxes declined for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 as compared to 1995 due to lower pretax income. -13- LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company's liquidity, represented by cash and cash equivalents, is a product of its operating, investing and financing activities. The Company's primary sources of funds are deposits, amortization, prepayments and maturities of outstanding loans and mortgage-backed securities, maturities of investment securities and other short-term investments and funds provided from operations. While scheduled payments from the amortization of loans and mortgage-backed securities and maturing investment securities and short-term investments are relatively predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition. In addition, the Bank invests excess funds in overnight deposits and other short-term interest-earning assets which provide liquidity to meet lending requirements. The Bank has been able to generate sufficient cash through its deposits. At September 30, 1996, the Bank had no outstanding advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati or other borrowings. Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of business management. Excess liquidity is generally invested in short-term investments such as overnight deposits. On a longer-term basis, the Bank maintains a strategy of investing in various investment and mortgage-backed securities and residential mortgage loans. The Bank uses its sources of funds primarily to meet its ongoing commitments, to pay maturing savings certificates and savings withdrawals, to fund loan commitments and to maintain a portfolio of mortgage-backed and investment securities. At September 30, 1996, the total approved loan commitments outstanding amounted to $602,640. At the same date, there were no commitments under unused lines of credit. Certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in one year or less at September 30, 1996, totaled $34.4 million. Management believes that a significant portion of maturing deposits will remain with the Bank. The Bank anticipates that with interest rates at higher levels than have been experienced in recent months, it will continue to have sufficient funds to meet its current commitments. At September 30, 1996, the Bank had a liquidity ratio of 9.51%, which exceeded the required minimum liquid asset ratio of 5.0%. At September 30, 1996, the Bank had regulatory capital which was well in excess of applicable limits. At September 30, 1996, the Bank was required to maintain tangible capital of 1.5% of adjusted total assets, core capital of 3.0% of adjusted total assets and risk-based capital of 8.0% of adjusted risk-weighted assets. At September 30, 1996, the Bank's tangible capital was $16.6 million or 24.2% of adjusted total assets, core capital was $16.6 million or 24.2% of adjusted total assets and risk-based capital was $16.7 million or 83.3% of adjusted risk-weighted assets, exceeding the requirements by $15.6 million, $14.5 million and $15.1 million, respectively. -14- GATEWAY BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION Gateway Bancorp, Inc.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 1995. The results for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 1996. BUSINESS The Company's principal business is conducted through the Bank which conducts business from its main office located in Catlettsburg, Kentucky, and one full-service branch located in Grayson, Kentucky. The Bank's deposits are insured by the Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF") to the maximum extent permitted by law. The Bank is subject to examination and comprehensive regulation by the Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS"), which is the Bank's chartering authority and primary regulator. The Bank is also subject to regulation by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"), as the administrator of the SAIF, and to certain reserve requirements established by the Federal Reserve Board ("FRB"). The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati ("FHLB"). PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the Bank, and the Bank's one wholly-owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Additionally, certain reclassifications may have been made in order to conform with the current period's presentation. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis. -8- (2) CONVERSION TRANSACTION On January 18, 1995, (i) the Bank converted from a federally-chartered mutual savings and loan association to a federally-chartered stock savings bank and (ii) the Company acquired all of the common stock of the Bank in the Conversion. As part of the Conversion, the Company issued 1,244,570 shares of its Common Stock. Total proceeds of $12,445,700 were reduced by $500,000 for shares to be purchased by the Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP") and by approximately $737,200 for conversion expenses. As a result of the Conversion, the Company contributed approximately $5,900,000 of additional capital to the Bank and retained the balance of the proceeds. (3) NET INCOME PER SHARE Net income per share for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 was computed using the weighted average (1,124,875 and 1,196,423, respectively) number of shares outstanding. Shares which have not been committed to be released to the ESOP are not considered to be outstanding for purposes of calculating net income per share. (4) DIVIDENDS PER SHARE For purposes of recording dividends, dividends paid on unallocated ESOP shares are not considered dividends for financial reporting purposes. There were 12,628 and 7,746 shares released to the ESOP at September 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995, respectively. (5) CHANGE IN FISCAL YEAR On March 29, 1995, the Company established December 31 as its fiscal year end, effective as of December 31, 1994. The Company took this action in order to report its results as a public company in a manner which is consistent with the way the Bank has traditionally conducted its business. (6) PURCHASE OF COMMON STOCK During the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and the year ended December 31, 1995, respectively, the Company purchased 83,098 and 47,600 shares of its outstanding common stock on the open market. In accordance with the 1988 amendment to the Kentucky Business Corporation Act, the purchase of these shares has been recorded as a purchase of common stock shares, which are authorized but unissued. The shares are available for reissuance. (7) EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN The Company has established the ESOP for employees of the Company and the Bank effective upon the Conversion. Full-time employees of the Company and the Bank who have been credited with at least 1,000 hours of service during a twelve month period and who have attained age 21 are eligible to participate in the ESOP. The Company loaned the ESOP $500,000 for the initial purchase of the ESOP shares. The loan is due and payable in forty (40) equal quarterly installments of $12,500 beginning March 31, 1995, plus interest at the rate of 8.75% per annum. The Company will make scheduled discretionary cash contributions to the ESOP sufficient to amortize the principal and interest on the loan. The Company accounts for its ESOP in accordance with Statement of Position 93-6, "Employer's Accounting For Employee Stock Ownership Plans." As shares are committed to be released to participants, the Company reports compensation expense -9- equal to the average market price of the shares during the period. ESOP compensation expense recorded during the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 was $3,000 and $22,920, and $9,000 and $60,293, respectively. The Company used $66,234 in dividends on unallocated ESOP shares to pay the quarterly debt service through September 30, 1996. (8) RECOGNITION AND RETENTION PLAN AND TRUST At the Company's 1995 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the Recognition and Retention Plan and Trust (the "RRP") was approved by the Company's stockholders. The Office of Thrift Supervision indicated its non-objection to the RRP plan provisions on September 7, 1995. As of December 31, 1995, the Company had purchased 49,782 shares in the open market to fund the RRP at an aggregate cost of $721,839. As of September 30, 1996, 41,938 of the shares available under the RRP have been awarded to the Company's Board of Directors and the Bank's executive officers and other key employees, subject to vesting and other provisions of the RRP. At September 30, 1996, the deferred cost of unearned RRP shares totaled $608,203 and is recorded as a charge against stockholders' equity. Compensation expense will be recognized ratably over the five year vesting period only for those shares awarded. The Company recorded compensation expense related to the RRP of $22,721 and $68,164 for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1996, respectively, and $22,736 during the three months ended September 30, 1995. (9) STOCK OPTION PLAN At the Company's 1995 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the Stock Option Plan (the "Plan") was approved by the Company's stockholders. A total of 124,457 shares may be issued pursuant to the Plan. Through September 30, 1996 an aggregate of 73,423 stock options have been granted to the Company's Board of Directors, and the Bank's executive officers and other key employees. These options are subject to vesting provisions as well as other provisions of the Plan. Such options were not dilutive during the three and nine months ended September 30, 1996. No options have been exercised as of September 30, 1996. (10) SAIF SPECIAL ASSESSMENT On September 30, 1996, Bank Insurance Fund ("BIF")-SAIF reform was enacted as part of the 1997 omnibus appropriations bill. As part of this legislation, thrifts, including the Bank, will pay a special one-time assessment to restore the SAIF insurance fund to the statutorily prescribed level of 1.25% of insured deposits. The assessment rate will be 65.7 basis points on SAIF-insured deposits as of March 31, 1995. Payments for the one-time charge are due November 27, 1996. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the Bank has accrued $338,631 at September 30, 1996, to record this assessment. Future quarterly SAIF assessments will be reduced beginning January 1, 1997, to $.064 for every $100 of insured deposits, from the present level of $.23 per $100 of insured deposits. Based upon the $51.5 million of assessable deposits at September 30, 1996, the Bank would expect to pay $21,372 less in insurance premiums per quarter during 1997. -10- PART II - OTHER INFORMATION Item 1.
