AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTE 1 -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION The consolidated financial information of PRIVATEBANCORP, Inc. (the "Company") and its Subsidiaries, The PrivateBank and Trust Company (the "Bank" or "PrivateBank (Chicago)") and The PrivateBank (St. Louis), included herein is unaudited; however, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation for the interim periods. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. The annualized results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year ending December 31, 2002. The accompanying consolidated financial statements are unaudited and do not include information or footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The March 31, 2002 consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2001 included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K (File No. 000-25887). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reported period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. NOTE 2 -- EARNINGS PER SHARE The following table shows the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share (in thousands except per share data): THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, ---------------------- 2002 2001 ------ ------ Net Income............................................... $2,144 $1,333 Average common shares outstanding........................ 4,858 4,648 Average common shares equivalent(1)...................... 218 135 ------ ------ Weighted average common shares and common share equivalents........................................... 5,076 4,783 ====== ====== Net income per average common share - basic.............. $ 0.44 $ 0.29 Net income per average common share - diluted............ $ 0.42 $ 0.28 <FN> - -------------------------------- (1) Common shares equivalent result from stock options being treated as if they had been exercised and are computed by application of the treasury stock method. </FN> 8 NOTE 3 - NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 141, "Business Combinations" and No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". SFAS No. 141 applies to all business combinations completed after June 30, 2001. All future business combinations must be recorded using the purchase method of accounting. As the Company contemplates further acquisitions as part of its growth strategy, this Statement will likely have an impact on the Company's future financial statements. SFAS No. 142 supercedes APB Opinion No. 17 "Intangible Assets" and addresses the accounting of intangible assets and goodwill. Adoption of this Statement was required beginning January 1, 2002 in relation to all of the Company's goodwill and intangible assets. Early application of this standard is not permitted. The Statement discontinues the regular amortization of goodwill and a transitional impairment test of goodwill is required as of January 1, 2002. An annual impairment test of goodwill is required every year thereafter. Impairment losses from goodwill recognized in the initial application of this Statement are to be reported as resulting from a change in accounting principle. Impairment losses in subsequent years will be recorded as operating expenses. Goodwill at March 31, 2002 totaled $10.8 million. The assessment required by SFAS No. 142 is expected to be completed by June 30, 2002. Any future acquisitions completed by the Company will also be subject to this Statement. The following table shows the effect of adopting SFAS No. 142 (in thousands, except per share data): MARCH 31, 2002 2001 (IN THOUSANDS) Reported net income................ $ 2,144 $ 1,333 Add: Goodwill amortization (net of tax) ........................... -- 144 ------- ------- Adjusted net income................ $ 2,144 $ 1,477 ======= ======= Basic earnings per share: Reported basic earnings per share.... $ 0.44 $ 0.29 Add: Goodwill amortization (net of tax) ............................. -- 0.03 ------- ------- Adjusted basic earnings per share.... $ 0.44 $ 0.32 ======= ======= Diluted earnings per share: Reported diluted earnings per share.. $ 0.42 $ 0.28 Add: Goodwill amortization (net of tax) ............................. -- 0.03 ------- ------- Adjusted diluted earnings per share.. $ 0.42 $ 0.31 ======= ======= In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets." SFAS No. 144 supersedes SFAS No. 121 and the accounting and reporting provisions of APB Opinion No. 30. The Statement addresses the accounting for a segment of a business accounted for as a discontinued operation and the accounting for the disposition of long-lived assets. The provisions of this Statement are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company intends to adopt the Statement in the second quarter of 2002 and does not anticipate that the adoption will have a material effect on the Company's results of operations. NOTE 4 - OPERATING SEGMENTS For purposes of making operating decisions and assessing performance, management regards The PrivateBank (Chicago), The PrivateBank (St. Louis), Wealth Management and the Holding Company as four operating segments.

(2) This FHLB advance is subject to a fair value hedge utilizing an interest rate swap with a fair value of $1.4 million. The contractual par amount on the advance is $25.0 million. (3) Demand repurchase agreements are a form of retail repurchase agreements offered to certain clients of The PrivateBank (Chicago). Funds are swept each business day from the client's demand deposit account. These amounts are not deposits and are not insured, but are secured by a pool of securities pledged specifically for this purpose. </FN> On February 11, 2002, the Company renewed the term on an $18.0 million revolving credit facility with a commercial bank originally entered into on February 11, 2000. On April 11, 2002, the loan agreement was amended and the revolving line was increased to $25.0 million. The interest rate on borrowings under this revolving line resets quarterly, and is based on, at our option, either the lender's prime rate or three-month LIBOR plus 120 basis points with a floor of 3.50% effective April 11, 2002. The Company has elected to pay interest based on the three-month LIBOR rate plus 120 basis points. The initial rate of interest on the revolver was 7.20%, and most recently reset to 3.22% on March 25, 2002. The collateral for this borrowing consists of the common stock of The PrivateBank (Chicago) and The PrivateBank (St. Louis), which is held in custody by the lender. As of March 31, 2002, the outstanding balance was $9.0 million. On February 11, 2000, the Company entered into a subordinated note issued to Johnson International, Inc. and subsequently sold to a third party, in the principal amount of $5.0 million. The interest on the subordinated note is reset each quarter based on the three-month LIBOR rate. The note is payable in full on or before February 11, 2007, and provides for certain rate escalation beginning after February 11, 2002. On February 11, 2002, the interest rate increased from LIBOR +50 basis points to LIBOR +200 basis points. This pricing is in effect until February 11, 2004, at which point the pricing increases to LIBOR +350 until maturity on February 11, 2007. The average rate of interest on the subordinated note was 6.51% during the first quarter of 2001 compared to 3.27% during the first quarter of 2002 and most recently reset to 3.89% on February 11, 2002. The Company has the right to repay the subordinated note at any time after giving at least 30 days, but not more than 60 days advance notice. 14 NOTE 9 -- LONG TERM DEBT -- TRUST PREFERRED SECURITIES Effective February 8, 2001, PrivateBancorp Capital Trust I, a newly created Delaware business trust and wholly-owned finance subsidiary of the Company, issued 2,000,000 shares (including the underwriters' over-allotment) of 9.50% trust preferred securities, which represent preferred undivided interests in the assets of the trust. The sole assets of the trust are 9.50% junior subordinated debentures issued by the Company with a maturity date of December 31, 2030. Subject to certain limitations, the Company has the right to defer payment of interest on the debentures at any time, or from time to time, for a period not to exceed 20 consecutive quarters. The trust preferred securities are subject to mandatory redemption, in whole or in part, upon repayment of the debentures at maturity or their earlier redemption. At the option of the Company, the debentures may be redeemed in whole or in part prior to maturity on or after December 31, 2005, if certain conditions are met, and only after the Company has obtained Federal Reserve approval, if then required under applicable guidelines or regulations. The Company has guaranteed the payment of distributions and payments upon liquidation or redemption of the trust preferred securities, in each case to the extent of funds held by the trust. The Company and the trust believe that, taken together, the obligations of the Company under the guarantee, the debentures and other related agreements provide, in the aggregate, a full, irrevocable and unconditional guarantee, on a subordinated basis, of all of the obligations of the trust under the trust preferred securities. The trust preferred securities are recorded as long-term debt of the Company. The aggregate principal amount of the trust preferred securities outstanding is $20 million. As of March 31, 2002, the entire amount of the preferred securities is eligible for treatment as Tier I capital as allowed by the Federal Reserve. The balance of the underwriting commissions and offering expenses at March 31, 2002 was $1.1 million and is classified as part of other assets on the balance sheet. This amount is being amortized on a straight-line basis until maturity. The amortization is recognized as interest expense on the income statement. 15 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OVERVIEW PrivateBancorp, Inc. ("the Company") was organized as a Delaware corporation in 1989 to serve as the holding company for a Chicago-based de novo bank designed to provide highly personalized financial services primarily to affluent individuals, professionals, entrepreneurs and their business interests. Through the Company's banking subsidiaries, The PrivateBank and Trust Company ("The PrivateBank (Chicago)") and The PrivateBank (St. Louis), the Company provides its clients with traditional personal and commercial banking services, lending programs, and wealth management services. Using the European tradition of "private banking" as the model, the Company strives to develop a unique relationship with clients, utilizing a team of managing directors to serve the clients' individual and corporate banking needs, and tailoring products and services to meet such needs. Currently, the Company has seven Chicago-area offices: Downtown Chicago, Wilmette, Oak Brook, St. Charles, Lake Forest, Winnetka, and Geneva, Illinois. During 2000, the Company expanded to the St. Louis market where it opened a new federal savings bank, The PrivateBank (St. Louis). Currently, the Company operates one location in the St. Louis market. Managing directors are strategically located at all of these locations. For financial information regarding the Company's four separate lines of business, The PrivateBank (Chicago), The PrivateBank (St. Louis), Wealth Management and Holding Company Activities, see "Note 4 -- Operating Segments" to the unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company included in this report. The profitability of our operations depends on our net interest income, provision for loan losses, non-interest income, and non-interest expense. Net interest income is dependent on the amounts and yields of interest-earning assets as compared to the amounts and rates on interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income is sensitive to changes in market rates of interest as well as to the execution of our asset/liability management strategy. The provision for loan losses reflects the cost of credit risk in the loan portfolio and is affected by changes in the loan portfolio, management's assessment of the collectability of the loan portfolio, loss experience, as well as economic and market factors. Non-interest income consists primarily of net security gains (losses) and wealth management fee income, and to a lesser extent, fees for ancillary banking services. Non-interest income from fees and deposit service charges are below peer group levels. This is largely the result of the profile of our typical client. Our clients tend to have larger deposit account balances than customers of traditional banks. Because average balances tend to be high, we do not earn the high service charge income typical of many retail banks. Non-interest expense includes salaries and employee benefits as well as occupancy, data processing, marketing, professional fees, insurance and other expenses. Non-interest expenses are influenced by the growth of operations. Our growth directly affects the majority of our expense categories. Profitability and expense ratios were negatively impacted during the first quarter of 2001 due to the start-up nature of operations in St. Louis. The PrivateBank (St. Louis) began to operate profitably during the fourth quarter of 2001 and we expect this office to have a positive impact on our profitability in 2002. During the first quarter 2002, The PrivateBank (St. Louis) earned $122,000 versus a loss of $210,000 in the prior year period. During the remainder of 2002 we expect profitability and expense ratios to continue to improve relative to 2001. The Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein. Reference should also be made to our accounting policies set out in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. Certain critical policies involve estimates and assumptions by management. By their nature, changes in these assumptions and estimates could significantly affect our financial position or results of operations. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates and judgments regarding the determination of the adequacy of the reserve for loan losses, as described in both Management's Discussion and Analysis and in the financial statement notes, is of particular significance to us. In addition, effective January 1, 2002, we adopted SFAS No. 142, which requires an annual impairment test of goodwill. 16 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2002 AND 2001 NET INCOME Net income for the first quarter ended March 31, 2002, was $2.1 million, up 61% compared to first quarter 2001 net income of $1.3 million. Earnings increased 50% to $0.42 per diluted share in the first quarter 2002 compared to $0.28 per diluted share in the first quarter 2001. The increase in net income during the first quarter 2002 reflects the positive impact on net interest income that resulted from growth in earning assets, continued high credit quality and improved operating efficiencies as compared to the prior year quarter. NET INTEREST INCOME Net interest income is the difference between interest income and fees on earning assets and interest expense on deposits and borrowings. Net interest margin represents net interest income on a tax equivalent basis as a percentage of average earning assets during the period. Net interest margin reflects the spread between average yields earned on interest earning assets and the average rates paid on interest bearing deposits and borrowings. The volume of non-interest bearing funds, largely comprised of demand deposits and capital, also affects the net interest margin. Net interest income on a tax equivalent basis was $8.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2002 compared to $6.4 million for the first quarter 2001, an increase of 29%. Average earning assets during the first quarter 2002 were $1.1 billion, compared to $799.8 million in the prior year quarter, an increase of 42%. Compared to fourth quarter 2001, average earning assets increased by $111.0 million, or 11% during the first quarter of 2002. Average earning loans during the first quarter 2002 increased to $781.1 million compared to $741.4 million during the fourth quarter of 2001. Net interest margin (on a tax equivalent basis) was 3.14% in the first quarter 2002, down from 3.32% in the prior year first quarter and 3.28% in the fourth quarter of 2001. The decline in net interest margin compared to the fourth quarter 2001 is primarily attributable to decreases in market interest rates during the fourth quarter of 2001 that affected loan yields for the full first quarter 2002 period. Our earning assets re-price at a faster rate than our interest bearing liabilities. During the second quarter of 2002, we expect to experience stabilization in net interest margin, as market rates of interest have remained stable throughout 2002. 17 The following tables present a summary of our net interest income and related net interest margin, calculated on a tax equivalent basis (dollars in thousands): THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2002 2001 --------------------------------- ---------------------------------- AVERAGE AVERAGE BALANCE INTEREST RATE BALANCE INTEREST RATE ---------- -------- ---- -------- -------- ---- Fed funds sold and other short-term investments......... $ 3,737 $ 17 1.79% $ 12,326 $ 177 5.75% Investment securities(1).......... 353,613 4,893 5.56% 188,092 3,466 7.37% Loans, net of unearned discount(2)..................... 781,059 12,041 6.20% 599,407 13,002 8.74% ---------- ------- -------- ------- Total earning assets.............. $1,138,409 $16,951 5.98% $799,825 $16,645 8.37% ========== ======= ======== ======= Interest-bearing deposits......... $ 902,915 $ 6,213 2.79% $624,986 $ 8,203 5.32% Funds borrowed.................... 135,979 1,309 3.85% 91,118 1,507 6.62% Long-term debt - trust preferred securities (3)................. 20,000 485 9.70% 11,556 276 9.55% ---------- ------- -------- ------- Total interest-bearing liabilities 1,058,894 8,007 3.06% $727,660 9,986 5.55% ========== ------- ======== ------- Tax equivalent net interest income $ 8,944 $ 6,659 ======= ======= Net interest spread............... 2.92% 2.82% Net interest margin............... 3.14% 3.32% <FN> - --------------------------------------- (1) Interest income on tax-advantaged investment securities reflects a tax equivalent adjustment based on a marginal federal corporate tax rate of 34%. The total tax equivalent adjustment reflected in the above table is approximately $687,109 and $264,435 in the first quarters of 2002 and 2001, respectively. (2) Nonaccrual loans are included in the average balances and do not have a material effect on the average yield. Interest due on non-accruing loans was not material for the periods presented. (3) The trust preferred securities pay a 9.50% fixed rate of interest. The yield for 2001 is based on the interest period from February 8, 2001 to March 31, 2001. </FN> The following table shows the dollar amount of changes in interest income (tax-equivalent) and interest expense by major categories of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities attributable to changes in volume or rate, or a mix of both, for the periods indicated. Volume variances are computed using the change in volume multiplied by the previous period's rate. Rate variances are computed using the changes in rate multiplied by the previous period's volume.

The allowance for loan losses reflects management's latest assessment of the losses that are probable and reasonably estimable in the loan portfolio. Our allowance for probable loan losses is reassessed monthly to determine the appropriate level of the reserve. Our analysis is influenced by the following factors: the volume and quality of loans and commitments in the portfolio, loss experience, and economic conditions. A discussion of the allowance for loan losses and the factors management considers in assessing the adequacy of the allowance begins on page 21. Our provision for loan losses was $511,000 for the first quarter of 2002, compared to $339,000 for the comparable period in 2001. Increases in the provision for loan losses compared to the prior year periods are related to the growth in the loan portfolio. NON-INTEREST INCOME Non-interest income for the quarter increased to $1.0 million, reflecting a decrease of $90,000 or 7.9% compared to the first quarter of 2001. The Company recognized $230,000 of net securities losses during the first quarter 2002, compared to net securities gains of $186,000 during the first quarter of 2001. The security losses for the quarter include a write-down of $200,000 on an investment that qualifies for CRA purposes. Banking, trust services and other income increased $326,000 or 34% over the prior year quarter. Trust assets under administration increased to $758.2 million at March 31, 2002 compared to $693.2 million at March 31, 2001, an increase of 9%, attributable primarily to increases in new business generated during the quarter. Trust fee revenue increased by $33,000 to $724,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2002, an increase of 5% over the prior year quarter. The increase reflects continued growth in new wealth management accounts. During the first quarter of 2002, we recognized income of $142,500 related to the increased cash surrender value of a bank owned life insurance (BOLI) policy that was entered into in the fourth quarter of 2001. This policy covers certain higher-level employees who are deemed to be significant contributors to the company. All employees included in this policy are aware and have consented to the coverage. The cash surrender value of BOLI at March 31, 2002 was $10.3 million and is included in other assets on the balance sheet. NON-INTEREST EXPENSE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, ------------------ 2002 2001 ------ ------ (IN THOUSANDS) Salaries and employee benefits........ $2,844 $2,434 Occupancy............................. 1,139 888 Professional fees..................... 891 531 Marketing............................. 365 349 Data processing....................... 308 304 Postage, telephone and delivery....... 178 180 Office supplies and printing.......... 67 82 Insurance............................. 93 93 Goodwill.............................. -- 206 Other expense......................... 217 219 ------ ------ Total non-interest expense............ $6,102 $5,286 ====== ====== Non-interest expense increased to $6.1 million in the first quarter of 2002 from $5.3 million in the first quarter of 2001, an increase of 15%. The elimination of goodwill amortization in 2002 resulted in a favorable impact of $206,000 to non-interest expense in the current period. The increase in non-interest expense between quarters reflects the continued growth of the organization during the twelve-month period ended March 31, 2002. Our efficiency ratio was 61.1% for the first quarter 2002 as compared to 67.8% for the first quarter 2001. On a tax-equivalent basis, this ratio indicates that in the first quarter of 2002, we spent 61.1 cents to generate each dollar of 19 revenue, compared to 67.8 cents in the first quarter of 2001. During the remainder of 2002, we expect to continue to report improvements in our operating efficiency ratio as compared to 2001 as revenue generated at the new offices outpaces the increases in related operating expenses. Salaries and benefits increased to $2.8 million, or 17% during the first quarter 2002 as compared to the year ago quarter, reflecting the increased level of full-time equivalent employees to 162 people at March 31, 2002 as compared to 140 people at March 31, 2001. The increase is due primarily to overall growth in the organization. Occupancy expense increased to $1.1 million during the first quarter 2002, reflecting an increase of 28% over the prior year quarter. Occupancy expense during the first quarter 2002 reflects the addition of our newest office in Geneva as well as additional floor space that is being leased in our downtown Chicago location. During 2002, we have continued to invest in our information technology infrastructure. These expenditures have resulted in new hardware, innovative software and upgrades to our disaster recovery systems. Professional fees increased to $891,000 during the first quarter of 2002, reflecting an increase of 68% over the prior year quarter. The increase in professional fees is primarily attributable to information systems consultation to assist us in the implementation of system upgrades as well as in the augmentation of our current disaster recovery network. Postage, telephone and delivery decreased to $178,000 during the first quarter 2002, a decrease of 1% over the prior year quarter. Office supplies and printing costs decreased to $67,000 during the first quarter 2002, an 18% decrease as compared to the prior year quarter. Office supplies and printing costs were higher in the prior year quarter due to start-up costs associated with our newer offices. INCOME TAXES The following table shows our income before income taxes, applicable income taxes and effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively (in thousands): THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, --------------------- 2002 2001 ------ ------ Income before taxes.......... $2,693 $1,909 Income tax provision......... 549 576 Effective tax rate........... 20.4% 30.2% The lower effective tax rate for the first quarter 2002 as compared to the prior year quarter is primarily attributable to an increase in the amount of federally tax exempt municipal investment securities held in our securities portfolio. Tax-exempt municipal securities increased from $54.7 million at March 31, 2001 to $122.0 million at March 31, 2002, an increase of 123%. The effective income tax rate varies from statutory rates principally due to certain interest income, which is tax-exempt for federal or state purposes, and certain expenses, which are disallowed for tax purposes. 20 FINANCIAL CONDITION TOTAL ASSETS Total assets increased to $1.2 billion at March 31, 2002, an increase of $54,440, or 5% over total assets of $1.2 billion at December 31, 2001, and an increase of $357,515, or 41% over $873.7 million of total assets at March 31, 2001. The balance sheet growth during the three months ended March 31, 2002 was accomplished mainly through loan growth throughout the Company and growth in the investment securities portfolio. The growth in assets was funded through excess liquidity and increases in brokered deposits. LOANS Total loans increased to $782.4 million, an increase of $1.6 million, or 0.2%, from $780.8 million at December 31, 2001 and an increase of $156.7 million, or 25%, from $625.7 million at March 31, 2001. Total loans at March 31, 2002 grew slightly since year-end 2001. The PrivateBank (St. Louis) had loans outstanding of $82.3 million as of March 31, 2002, growth of $49.1 million since March 31, 2001. The remaining loan growth of $107.6 million experienced by the Company since March 31, 2001 was generated by The PrivateBank (Chicago). All of The PrivateBank (Chicago) offices posted strong gains in loan volume on a quarter over quarter basis. The following table sets forth our loan portfolio net of unearned discount by category (in thousands) at the following dates: MARCH 31, DECEMBER 31, MARCH 31, 2002 2001 2001 --------- ------------ --------- LOANS Commercial real estate........... $330,348 $310,869 $229,842 Residential real estate.......... 80,423 89,889 83,613 Commercial....................... 153,340 163,279 129,080 Personal(1)...................... 126,316 124,206 105,829 Construction..................... 92,007 92,528 77,336 -------- -------- -------- Total loans................... $782,434 $780,771 $625,700 ======== ======== ======== <FN> - ------------------------------ (1) Includes home equity loans and overdraft lines. </FN> ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES Loan quality is continually monitored by management and reviewed by the loan/investment committees of the boards of directors of the banks on a monthly basis. In determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, management considers a variety of factors, including assessment of the credit risk of the portfolio, delinquent loans, evaluation of current economic conditions in the market area, actual charge-offs during the year and historical loss experience. The unallocated portion of the reserve involves the exercise of judgment by management and reflects various considerations, including management's view that the reserve should have a margin that recognizes the imprecision inherent in the process of estimating credit losses. We maintain an allowance for loan losses that we deem adequate to absorb credit losses inherent in our loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses represents our estimate of probable losses in the portfolio at each balance sheet date based on review of available and relevant information, including probable losses that have been identified relating to specific borrowing relationships, as well as probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio and credit undertakings that are not specifically identified. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans was 1.12% at March 31, 2002, 1.06% at December 31, 2001 and 1.03% at March 31, 2001. Management believes that the allowance for loan losses is adequate to provide for estimated probable credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Net charge-offs totaled $27,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2002 versus net recoveries of $8,000 in the year earlier period. The provision for loan losses was $511,000 in the first quarter of 2002, versus $339,000 in the 21 first quarter of 2001. Management judges the adequacy of the allowance by formally reviewing and analyzing potential problem credits, which entails assessing current and historical loss experience, loan portfolio trends, prevailing economic and business conditions, specific loan review and other relevant factors. Following is a summary of changes in the allowance for loan losses for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001 (in thousands): 2002 2001 ---- ---- Balance, January 1................................ $8,306 $6,108 Provisions charged to earnings.................... 511 339 Loans charged-off, net of recoveries..............

Loans in this category include those with characteristics such as past maturity more than 90 days, those that have recent adverse operating cash flow or balance sheet trends, or loans that have general risk characteristics that management believes might jeopardize the future timely collection of principal and interest payments. The balance in this category at any reporting period can fluctuate widely based on the timing of cash collections, renegotiations and renewals. Nonaccrual loans were $1.5 million at March 31, 2002 as compared to $664,000 at December 31, 2001 and $117,000 at March 31, 2001. Nonaccrual loans increased by $794,000 million since December 31, 2001. The increase relates primarily to two commercial real estate credit relationships at The PrivateBank (Chicago). Loans delinquent over 90 days decreased by $1,057,000 since December 31, 2001. 22 INVESTMENT SECURITIES The amortized cost and the estimated fair value of securities at March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001, were as follows (in thousands): INVESTMENT SECURITIES -- AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE -------------------------------------------------------- MARCH 31, 2002 -------------------------------------------------------- GROSS GROSS AMORTIZED UNREALIZED UNREALIZED ESTIMATED COST GAINS LOSSES FAIR VALUE --------- ---------- ---------- ---------- U.S. government agency mortgage backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations.................. $101,204 $744 $(271) $101,677 Corporate collateralized mortgage obligations........................... 18,934 352 -- 19,286 Tax exempt municipal securities.......... 122,795 473 (1,266) 122,002 Taxable municipal securities............. 7,560 7 (9) 7,558 Federal Home Loan Bank stock............. 126,026 -- -- 126,026 Other.................................... 12,162 132 (115) 12,179 -------- ------ ------- -------- Total.................................... $388,681 $1,708 $(1,661) $388,728 ======== ====== ======= ======== INVESTMENT SECURITIES -- AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE -------------------------------------------------------- DECEMBER 31, 2001 -------------------------------------------------------- GROSS GROSS AMORTIZED UNREALIZED UNREALIZED ESTIMATED COST GAINS LOSSES FAIR VALUE --------- ---------- ---------- ---------- U.S. government agency mortgage backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations.................. $101,416 $ 483 $ (523) $101,376 Corporate collateralized mortgage obligations........................... 23,046 416 -- 23,462 Tax exempt municipal securities.......... 106,980 645 (700) 106,925 Taxable municipal securities............. 6,032 19 -- 6,051 Federal Home Loan Bank stock............. 92,964 -- -- 92,964 Other.................................... 2,005 150 -- 2,155 -------- ------- ------- -------- Total.................................... $332,443 $ 1,713 $(1,223) $332,933 ======== ======= ======= ======== All securities are classified as available-for-sale and may be sold as part of our asset/liability management strategy in response to changes in interest rates, liquidity needs or significant prepayment risk. Securities available-for-sale are carried at fair value, with related unrealized net gains or losses, net of deferred income taxes, recorded as an adjustment to equity capital. At March 31, 2002, net unrealized gains of $31,000 resulted in an increase in reported stockholders' equity. This was a decrease of $292,000 from net unrealized gains of $323,000 recorded as part of equity at December 31, 2001. The credit quality of the investment portfolio remains strong. The vast majority of investments are rated "AAA" by bond rating agencies. It is our policy not to take any undue credit risk with the investment portfolio Securities available for sale increased to $388.7 million at March 31, 2002, up 17% from $332.9 million at December 31, 2001. The growth in the investment security portfolio since December 31, 2001 resulted from the continued implementation of our asset/liability management strategy. Tax exempt municipal securities increased by $15.8 million. These securities provide net interest margin protection in a falling interest-rate environment. Collateralized mortgage obligations decreased $4.2 million in the first three months of 2002. Investments in Federal Home Loan Bank stock increased by $33.1 million as a result of purchases made to take advantage of the liquid nature of the investment. 23 DEPOSITS AND FUNDS BORROWED The following table presents the balances of deposits by category and each category as a percentage of total deposits at March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001: MARCH 31, DECEMBER 31, 2002 2001 ---------------------- ---------------------- PERCENT PERCENT BALANCE OF TOTAL BALANCE OF TOTAL -------- -------- ------- -------- (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) Demand....................... $ 62,359 6% $ 73,146 9% Savings...................... 10,850 1% 12,158 1% Interest-bearing demand...... 54,214 6% 52,061 6% Money market................. 364,189 37% 350,829 41% Brokered deposits ........... 278,918 28% 138,911 17% Other time deposits.......... 211,335 22% 223,390 26% -------- --- -------- --- Total deposits............ $981,865 100% $850,495 100% ======== === ======== === Total deposits of $981.9 million at March 31, 2002 represent an increase of $131.4 million or 15% as compared to total deposits of $850.5 million as of December 31, 2001. Noninterest-bearing deposits decreased by 15% to $62.3 million at March 31, 2002 as compared to $73.1 million at December 31, 2001. Interest-bearing demand deposits increased by 4% to $54.2 million as compared to $52.1 million at December 31, 2001. Money market accounts increased by $13.4 million to $364.2 million at March 31, 2002 as compared to $350.8 million at December 31, 2001. Other time deposits decreased by approximately $12 million to $211.3 million as compared to $223.4 million at year-end 2001. Brokered deposits increased by 101% to $278.9 million at March 31, 2002 as compared to $138.9 million at December 31, 2001. We continued to utilize brokered deposits as a source of funding for growth in the loan and investment portfolios. Certain broker deposits may include call option provisions, which can provide us with the opportunity to repay the certificates of deposit on a specified date prior to the contractual maturity date. During the first quarter of 2002, we called $48.0 million in brokered deposits and recognized $258,654 of unamortized brokered commissions in interest expense. We have replaced the called brokered deposits with new brokered deposits at lower interest rates. As of March 31, 2002, there were no outstanding brokered deposits containing call provisions. Membership in the Federal Home Loan Bank System gives us the ability to borrow funds from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago (FHLB) and from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines (FHLB) for short- or long-term purposes under a variety of programs. We have periodically used the services of the FHLB for short-term funding needs and other correspondent services. During 2001, we increased our utilization of Federal Home Loan Bank advances to fund loan growth. Management anticipates that our reliance on Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings as a funding source will likely remain at current levels in 2002 to the extent that rates on Federal Home Loan Bank advances continue to be more attractive than deposit pricing. Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings totaled $66.2 million at March 31, 2002 compared to $115.4 million at December 31, 2001. 24 A summary of all funds borrowed and outstanding at March 31, 2002, December 31, 2001 and March 31, 2001 is presented in the table below: CURRENT MARCH 31, DECEMBER 31, MARCH 31, AMOUNT RATE MATURITY 2002 2001 2001 - ------ ---- -------- ---- ---- ---- (IN THOUSANDS) Borrowing under revolving line of credit facility................................. 3.22% 04/11/03 $ 9,000 $ 5,000 $ -- Subordinated note............................. 3.89 2/11/07 5,000 5,000 5,000 FHLB floating rate advance (1)................ 6.77 05/01/01 -- -- 10,000 FHLB open line advance........................ 1.74 daily -- 25,000 -- FHLB fixed advance (2)........................ 6.50 10/23/05 24,698 24,886 25,000 FHLB fixed advance............................ 6.21 12/05/03 30,000 30,000 FHLB fixed advance............................ 6.49 11/13/01 -- -- 2,000 FHLB fixed advance............................ 4.30 02/01/02 -- 25,000 -- FHLB fixed advance............................ 5.91 06/21/02 500 500 500 FHLB fixed advance............................ 5.89 12/20/02 1,000 1,000 1,000 FHLB fixed advance............................ 5.21 01/22/02 -- 1,000 1,000 FHLB fixed advance............................ 5.02 03/06/02 -- 1,000 -- FHLB fixed advance............................ 5.33 07/22/02 1,000 1,000 -- FHLB fixed advance............................ 4.21 05/13/02 1,000 1,000 1,000 FHLB fixed advance............................ 2.39 11/12/02 5,000 5,000 1,000 FHLB fixed advance............................ 2.38 01/13/03 1,000 -- -- FHLB fixed advance............................ 2.98 3/10/03 1,000 -- -- FHLB fixed advance............................ 2.74 7/17/03 1,000 -- -- Federal funds purchased....................... 1.96 daily 69,000 103,000 10,000 Demand repurchase agreements (3).............. 1.60 daily 6,325 3,102 3,897 -------- -------- ------- Total funds borrowed..................... $155,523 $231,488 $90,397 ======== ======== ======= <FN> _______________ (1) The rate on this FHLB floating rate advance is set at one-month LIBOR minus five basis points. (2) This FHLB advance is subject to a fair value hedge utilizing an interest rate swap with a fair value of $1.4 million. The contractual par amount on the advance is $25.0 million. (3) Demand repurchase agreements are a form of retail repurchase agreements offered to certain clients of The PrivateBank (Chicago). Funds are swept each business day from the client's demand deposit account. These amounts are not deposits and are not insured, but are secured by a pool of securities pledged specifically for this purpose. </FN> The decrease in funds borrowed as of March 31, 2002 as compared to December 31, 2001, reflects a decrease in our federal funds purchased position and decreases in FHLB fixed advances, offset by an increase in our borrowings under a revolving line of credit. CAPITAL RESOURCES At March 31, 2002, $20.0 million of the trust preferred securities was treated as Tier 1 capital. Stockholders' equity rose to $64.9 million at March 31, 2002, an increase of $2.6 million from the 2001 year-end level, due to an increase in year-to-date 2002 net income. The Company and its banking subsidiaries are subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Capital adequacy guidelines and prompt corrective action regulations involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors, and the regulators can lower classifications in certain areas. Failure to meet various capital requirements can initiate regulatory action that could have a direct material effect on the financial statements. The prompt corrective action regulations provide five classifications, including well-capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized, and critically undercapitalized, although these terms are not used to represent overall financial condition. If a banking subsidiary is not "well capitalized," regulatory 25 approval is required to accept brokered deposits. If undercapitalized, capital distributions are limited, as is asset growth and expansion and plans for capital restoration are required. The following table reflects our consolidated measures of capital at March 31, 2002, December 31, 2001 and March 31, 2001: MARCH 31, DECEMBER 31, MARCH 31, 2002 2001 2001 --------- ------------ --------- Leverage ratio........................ 6.25% 6.64% 7.60% Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio....... 8.37% 8.18% 9.14% Total risk-based capital ratio........ 9.93% 9.71% 11.00% Total equity to total assets.......... 5.27% 5.29% 6.52% To be considered "well-capitalized," an entity must maintain a leverage ratio of at least 5.0%, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of at least 6.0%, and a total risk-based capital ratio of at least 10.0%. To be "adequately capitalized," a bank must maintain a leverage ratio of at least 4.0%, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of at least 4.0%, and a total risk-based capital ratio of at least 8.0%. At March 31, 2002, the Company and each of the banking subsidiaries continued to exceed the minimum levels of all regulatory capital requirements, and each banking subsidiary was considered "well capitalized" under all regulatory standards. LIQUIDITY Liquidity measures our ability to meet maturing obligations and its existing commitments, to withstand fluctuations in deposit levels, to fund our operations and to provide for clients' credit needs. Our liquidity of principally depends on cash flows from operating activities, investment in and maturity of assets, changes in balances of deposits and borrowings and our ability to borrow funds in the money or capital markets. Net cash outflows used in operations were $707,000 in the first three months of 2002 compared to a net cash inflow of $2.9 million a year earlier. The net cash outflow during the first quarter 2002 was impacted by the growth and timing of receipts of interest and cash settlement payments. Net cash outflows from investing activities were $49.0 million in the first three months of 2002 compared to a net cash outflow of $64.2 million a year earlier. Cash inflows from financing activities in the first three months of 2002 were $56.3 million compared to a net inflow of $39.0 million in the first three months of 2001. In the event of short-term liquidity needs, our banking subsidiaries may purchase federal funds from correspondent banks. Membership in the Federal Home Loan Bank System gives the banking subsidiaries the ability to borrow funds from the FHLB for short- or long-term purposes under a variety of programs. During the first quarter 2002, we relied more heavily on brokered deposits to fund growth in loans and investment securities as well as liquidity at our banks. For the remainder of 2002, we expect to continue to rely on brokered deposits for liquidity purposes if brokered rates continue to compare favorably to other sources of liquidity. Brokered deposits represented 28% of total deposits at March 31, 2002 compared to 17% of total deposits at December 31, 2001. 26 ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT POLICY As a continuing part of our financial strategy, we attempt to manage the impact of fluctuations in market interest rates on our net interest income. This effort entails providing a reasonable balance between interest rate risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and maintenance of yield. Asset/liability management policy is established by our Board of Directors and is monitored by management. Our asset/liability policy sets standards within which we are expected to operate. These standards include guidelines for exposure to interest rate fluctuations, liquidity, loan limits as a percentage of funding sources, exposure to correspondent banks and brokers, and reliance on non-core deposits. The policy also states the reporting requirements to the Board of Directors. The investment policy complements the asset/liability management policy by establishing criteria by which we may purchase securities. These criteria include approved types of securities, brokerage sources, terms of investment, quality standards, and diversification. We measure the impact of interest rate changes on our income statement through the use of gap analysis. The gap represents the net position of assets and liabilities subject to repricing in specified time periods. During any given time period, if the amount of rate sensitive liabilities exceeds the amount of rate sensitive assets, a company would generally be considered negatively gapped and would benefit from falling rates over that period of time. Conversely, a positively gapped company would generally benefit from rising rates. The following tables illustrate the estimated interest rate sensitivity and periodic and cumulative gap positions calculated as of March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001: MARCH 31, 2002 ------------------------------------------------------------------- TIME TO MATURITY OR REPRICING ------------------------------------------------------------------- (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) OVER 5 0-90 DAYS 91-365 DAYS 1-5 YEARS YEARS TOTAL --------- ----------- ---------- ---------- ---------- INTEREST-EARNING ASSETS Loans.............................. $473,074 $ 61,323 $ 213,123 $ 36,699 $ 784,219 Investments........................ 129,908 29,523 40,158 189,092 388,681 Federal funds sold................. 3,558 -- -- -- 3,558 -------- -------- ---------- ---------- ---------- Total interest-earning assets...... $606,540 $ 90,846 $ 253,281 $ 225,791 $1,176,458 ======== ======== ========== ========== ========== INTEREST-BEARING LIABILITIES Interest-bearing demand............ $ -- $ -- $ -- $ 54,214 $ 54,214 Savings and money market........... 202,222 161,967 -- 5,622 369,811 Time deposits...................... 137,360 334,659 20,718 2,744 495,481 Funds borrowed..................... 90,824 9,000 75,699 -- 175,523 -------- -------- ---------- ---------- ---------- Total interest-bearing liabilities. $430,406 $505,626 $ 96,417 $ 62,580 $1,095,029 ======== ======== ========== ========== ========== CUMULATIVE Rate sensitive assets (RSA)........ $606,540 $697,386 $ 950,667 $1,176,458 Rate sensitive liabilities (RSL)... 430,406 936,032 1,032,449 1,095,029 GAP (GAP=RSA-RSL).................. 176,134 (238,646) (81,782) 81,429 RSA/RSL............................ 140.92% 74.50% 92.08% 107.44% RSA/Total assets................... 49.26 56.64 77.21 95.55 RSL/Total assets................... 34.96 76.03 83.86 88.94 GAP/Total assets................... 14.31 19.38 6.64 6.61 GAP/Total RSA...................... 29.04 34.22 8.60 6.92 27 DECEMBER 31, 2001 ------------------------------------------------------------------- TIME TO MATURITY OR REPRICING ------------------------------------------------------------------- (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) OVER 5 0-90 DAYS 91-365 DAYS 1-5 YEARS YEARS TOTAL --------- ----------- ---------- ---------- ---------- INTEREST-EARNING ASSETS Loans................................ $467,083 $ 66,521 $ 204,859 $ 53,643 $ 792,106 Investments.......................... 95,269 8,516 45,147 183,511 332,443 Federal funds sold................... 518 -- -- -- 518 -------- -------- ---------- ---------- ---------- Total interest-earning assets........ $562,870 $ 75,037 $ 250,006 $ 237,154 $1,125,067 ======== ======== ========== ========== ========== INTEREST-BEARING LIABILITIES Interest-bearing demand.............. $ -- $ -- $ -- $ 52,061 $ 52,061 Savings and money market............. 205,926 144,903 -- 4,450 355,279 Time deposits........................ 173,401 171,111 20,978 4,519 370,009 Funds borrowed....................... 168,102 8,500 75,000 -- 251,602 -------- -------- ---------- ---------- ---------- Total interest-bearing liabilities... $547,429 $324,514 $ 95,978 $ 61,030 $1,028,951 ======== ======== ========== ========== ========== CUMULATIVE Rate sensitive assets (RSA).......... $562,870 $637,907 $ 887,913 $1,125,067 Rate sensitive liabilities (RSL)..... 547,429 871,943 967,921 1,028,951 GAP (GAP=RSA-RSL).................... 15,441 (234,036) (80,008) 96,116 RSA/RSL.............................. 102.82% 73.16% 91.73% 109.34% RSA/Total assets..................... 47.83 54.21 75.45 95.61 RSL/Total assets..................... 46.52 74.10 82.25 87.44 GAP/Total assets..................... 1.31 19.89 6.80 8.17 GAP/Total RSA........................ 2.74 36.69 9.01 8.54 The following table shows the impact of an immediate 200 basis point change in interest rates as of March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001. The effects are determined through the use of a simulation model based on our earning asset and interest-bearing liability portfolios, assuming the size of these portfolios remains constant from the balance sheet date throughout the one-year measurement period. The simulation assumes that assets and liabilities accrue interest on their current pricing basis. Assets and liabilities then reprice based on their terms and remain at that interest rate through the end of the measurement period. The model attempts to illustrate the potential change in net interest income if the foregoing occurred. MARCH 31, 2002 DECEMBER 31, 2001 ------------------------- -------------------------- +200 BASIS -200 BASIS +200 BASIS -200 BASIS POINTS POINTS POINTS POINTS ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- Percentage change in net interest income due to an immediate 200 basis point change in interest rates over a one-year time horizon.... 6.6% -7.4% 3.0% -4.7% This table shows that if there had been an instantaneous parallel shift in the yield curve of -200 basis points on March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001, we would suffer a decline in net interest income of -7.4% and -4.7%, respectively, over each one-year period. Conversely, a shift of +200 basis points would increase net interest income 6.6% over a one-year horizon based on March 31, 2002 balances, as compared to 3.0% measured on the basis of the December 31, 2001 portfolio. Changes in the effect on net interest income from a 200 basis point movement at March 31, 2002, compared to December 31, 2001 are due to the timing and nature of the repricing of rate sensitive assets to rate sensitive liabilities within the one year time frame. Although we are negatively gapped within one year, the asset sensitive position of the balance sheet in the first 90 days of the simulation, coupled with the timing of repricing within the 91 to 365 day bucket, would lead to an increase in net interest income from an immediate +200 basis point move. The 28 difference in the effect on net interest income at March 31, 2002 as compared to December 31, 2001 is due to the differences in the timing, balances, and current rates versus simulated rates of repricing assets and liabilities. The difference between the two measurement periods is also a result of our increased asset sensitivity in the 90-day bucket because of an increase in FHLB stock and a decrease in fed funds purchased since year-end. Management's likely reaction to changes in interest rates is incorporated in assumptions made in these calculations. Differences in these assumptions between the reporting periods have also had the effect of reducing the impact of a changing interest rate environment. The preceding sensitivity analysis is based on numerous assumptions including the nature and timing of interest rate levels including the shape of the yield curve, prepayments on loans and securities, changes in deposit levels, pricing decisions on loans and deposits, reinvestment/replacement of asset and liability cash flows and others. While assumptions are developed based upon current economic and local market conditions, we cannot make any assurances as to the predictive nature of these assumptions including how client preferences or competitor influences might change. SAFE HARBOR STATEMENT UNDER THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995 This report contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and we are including this statement for purposes of these safe harbor provisions. Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe our future plans, strategies and expectations, can generally be identified by use of the words "believe," "expect," "intend," "anticipate," "estimate," "project," or similar expressions. Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain and actual results may differ materially from the results discussed in forward-looking statements. Factors which might cause such a difference include, but are not limited to, fluctuations in market rates of interest and loan and deposit pricing; a deterioration of general economic conditions in our market areas; legislative or regulatory changes; adverse developments in our loan or investment portfolios; significant increases in competition; difficulties in identifying attractive acquisition opportunities or strategic partners to complement our private banking approach and the products and services we offer; and the possible dilutive effect of potential acquisitions or expansion. These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. We undertake no obligation to update publicly any of these statements in light of future events except as required in subsequent periodic reports we file with the SEC. PART II ITEM 1.
