ITEM 1. BUSINESS.
OAK HILL FINANCIAL, INC.
Oak Hill Financial, Inc., an Ohio corporation (the "Company") formed in
1981, is a financial holding company registered under the Bank Holding Company
Act of 1956, as amended (the "Act"), and is subject to regulation by the Federal
Reserve Board. The Company engages indirectly in the business of commercial
banking and other permissible activities closely related to banking and consumer
finance lending through four wholly owned subsidiaries, Oak Hill Banks ("Oak
Hill"), Action Finance Company ("Action"), McNelly, Patrick & Associates ("MPA")
and Oak Hill Title Agency, LLC ("Oak Hill Title"). The Company provides
management and similar services for its subsidiaries. Since it does not conduct
any operating businesses itself, the Company must depend largely upon its
subsidiaries for funds with which to pay the expenses of its operation and, to
the extent applicable, any dividends on its outstanding shares of stock. For
further information, see Note A of the Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements appearing in the Company's Annual Report to Stockholders, which is
incorporated by reference in response to this item.
The Company faces strong competition from both banking and non-banking
institutions. Its banking competitors include local and regional banks and bank
holding companies, as well as some of the largest banking organizations in the
United States. In addition, other types of financial institutions, such as
savings and loan associations and credit unions offer a wide range of loan and
deposit services that are directly competitive with those offered by Oak Hill.
The consumer is also served by brokerage firms and mutual funds that provide
checking services, credit cards, and other services similar to those offered by
Oak Hill. Major stores compete for loans by offering credit cards and retail
installment contracts. It is anticipated that competition from non-bank and
non-savings and loan organizations will continue to grow.
The range of services provided by the Company's subsidiaries to their
customers includes commercial lending, real estate lending, consumer credit,
credit card, other personal loan financing, group health insurance and other
employee benefits, and title services for commercial and residential real estate
transactions. Each of the subsidiaries operates under the direction of a Board
of Directors and officers.
The Company's internet site WWW.OAKF.COM contains a hyperlink to the
Securities and Exchange Commission's ("SEC") website where the Company's annual
report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form
8-K, and all amendments, if any, to these reports filed pursuant to Sections 13a
or 15d of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 can be obtained free of charge on
EDGAR as soon as reasonably practicable after the Company has filed the report
with the SEC.
LENDING ACTIVITIES
GENERAL. The Company generally makes loans in southern and central Ohio
where its branches are located. The Company's principal lending activities are
the origination of (i) conventional one-to-four family residential loans, and
(ii) commercial loans, most of which are secured by real estate located in the
Company's primary market area. These loan categories accounted for approximately
91% of the Company's net loan portfolio at December 31, 2002. The Company also
makes consumer loans, including installment loans and second mortgages, and
offers credit cards.
LOAN PORTFOLIO COMPOSITION AND ACTIVITY. The following table sets forth

======= ====== ======= ==== ======= ==== ======= ==== =======
LOANS SECURED BY ONE- TO FOUR-FAMILY REAL ESTATE. A significant portion
of the Company's lending activity is the origination of permanent conventional
loans secured by one-to-four-family residences located within the Company's
primary market area. The Company typically makes adjustable rate mortgage loans
and holds the loans in portfolio. More than 43% of the Company's portfolio of
permanent conventional mortgage loans secured by one-to four family residences
are adjustable rate. The Company also underwrites fixed-rate residential
mortgage loans, and may sell those loans on a servicing-retained basis in the
secondary market to the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("FHLMC") or to
the Federal National Mortgage Association ("FNMA"), or on a servicing-released
basis to another financial institution.
The Company makes fixed-rate loans on one- to four-family residences up
to 97% of the value of the real estate and improvements (the "loan-to-value" or
"LTV") substantially all of which are sold in the secondary market. Residential
real estate loans are offered by the Company for terms of up to 30 years. The
Company requires private mortgage insurance for the amount of such loans in
excess of 80% of the value of the real estate securing such loans.
The aggregate amount of the Company's one-to four family residential
real estate loans totaled approximately $245.8 million at December 31, 2002, and
represented 35.0% of net loans at such date. At such date, loans secured by
residential real estate with outstanding balances of approximately $1.1 million,
or 0.45%, of its total one-to four family residential real estate loan balance,
were more than 90 days delinquent or nonaccruing.
COMMERCIAL LOANS. The Company is also active in commercial lending,
primarily to smaller businesses in the Company's primary market area. These
loans are typically secured by commercial real estate and priced in relation to
the prime rate. Such loans generally have terms of up to 25 years and
loan-to-value ratios of up to 80%. To a much lesser degree, the Company will
also make unsecured commercial loans, which are also typically priced at spreads
to prime and have maturities of up to one year.
Loan officers review the borrower's financial statements, appraisals of
the collateral, and other related documents before recommending funding of a
commercial loan. The loan officer and the approving officer or committee then
determines that there is sufficient income to cover this and other loan
payments, that the collateral is of adequate liquidation value, that the
applicant has a good payment history and is capable of performing the
requirements of the loan. Other reviews and analysis are done as appropriate,
depending upon the complexity of the credit request.
Although a risk of nonpayment exists with respect to all loans, certain
specific types of risks are associated with different types of loans. The
primary risks associated with commercial loans are the quality of the borrower's
management and the impact of national and regional economic factors. The Company
mitigates these risks by maintaining a close working relationship with its
borrowers, by obtaining cross-collateralization and personal guarantees of its
loans, and by diversification within its loan portfolio.
Real estate is frequently a material component of the collateral for
the Company's loans. The expected source of repayment of these loans is
generally the operations of the borrower's business, but the real estate
provides an additional measure of security, particularly when the property is
owner-occupied. For this reason, real estate is considered additional collateral
on many of the Company's commercial loans.
Risks associated with real estate loans include fluctuating land
values, changes in tax policies, and concentration of loans within the Company's
market area. The Company mitigates these risks by generally providing loans to
experienced commercial real estate owners and developers. The risk is further
mitigated by the number of commercial real estate loans made to the user of the
property.
The aggregate amount of the Company's commercial loans without real
estate as primary or secondary collateral totaled approximately $130.0 million
at December 31, 2002, and represented 33.2% of commercial loans at that date. At
4
such date, commercial loans that were more than 90 days delinquent or
nonaccruing totaled approximately $564,000, or 0.43% of its commercial loan
portfolio. The aggregate amount of the Company's commercial loans with real
estate as primary or secondary collateral was approximately $261.6 million at
December 31, 2002, and at such date, approximately $4.2 million in outstanding
balances, or 1.6% of such loans, were more than 90 days delinquent or
nonaccruing.
CONSUMER LOANS. The Company offers several consumer loan products,
including installment loans and credit cards.
The Company has developed working relationships with several car
dealerships in its market area, and is able to do some financing of new and used
cars through these relationships. The Company generally finances cars that are
seven years old or newer. These loans generally have fixed rates and maturities
of 36 to 66 months.
To a lesser degree, the Company makes small unsecured loans to
creditworthy individuals. These loans are typically between $2,000 and $5,000,
at fixed rates, with maturities of less than five years. The Company also offers
a home equity loan product and, as a result of consumer demand, a credit card
product to its customers. Both products are underwritten to the same standards
as any of the Company's other consumer loan products.
Loan officers underwrite installment loan and other consumer loan
requests in such a manner to assure compliance with the various regulations and
the Company's underwriting standards. The payment history of applicants is very
important on these smaller loans, and is checked through in-house records as
well as credit bureaus. Normally, collateral, such as an automobile, is taken as
security and the value is checked through the N.A.D.A. book or another valuation
service. Income must be adequate to cover all monthly payments including the
proposed loan.
At December 31, 2002, the Company had approximately $73.7 million in
its consumer loan and credit card portfolio, which was 10.5% of the Company's
total net loans. Approximately $896,000 of these loans were over 90 days
delinquent or nonaccruing on that date, which represented 1.2% of the portfolio.
LOAN SOLICITATION AND PROCESSING. Loan originations are developed from
a number of sources, including continuing business with depositors, other
borrowers and real estate developers, solicitations by the Company's lending
staff, and walk-in customers.
Underwriting guidelines for all branches and loan types are set by
senior management at the home office. Consumer loan processing and underwriting
are decentralized; however, all other loans, including real estate and
commercial loans, are generally processed and underwritten centrally at the home
office. Loan applications generally are processed and underwritten at the branch
level. Loan officers and branch managers review the applications, as well as
credit bureau reports, appraisals, financial information, verifications of
income, and other documentation concerning the credit-worthiness of the
borrower, as applicable to each loan type.
Branch managers have the authority to approve loans up to $120,000 that
meet the underwriting criteria set by management, and area managers have
authority for amounts up to $350,000. Any loan greater than $350,000 must be
approved by senior management.
INCOME FROM LENDING ACTIVITIES. The Company earns interest and fee
income from its lending activities. The Company earns fees for originating loans
and for making commitments to originate loans and loan participations. Certain
fees, net of origination costs, are deferred and amortized over the life of the
loan. The Company also receives fees related to existing loans, such as late
charges. Income from loan origination and commitment fees and discounts varies
with the volume and type of loans and commitments made and with competitive and
economic conditions. Note A-4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements contains
a discussion of the manner in which origination fees are recognized for
financial reporting purposes. In addition, the Company conducts mortgage banking
activities, whereby, the Company sells certain fixed-rate residential loans in
the secondary market to the FHLMC and FNMA, recognizing gains upon the sale
comprised of a cash component as well as mortgage servicing rights.
NONPERFORMING LOANS
GENERAL. Late charges on residential mortgages are assessed by the
Company if a payment is not received either by the 10th day following its due
date or 15th day if the loan has been sold in the secondary market and is being
serviced by the Company. Late charges on installment loans and commercial loans
are assessed by the Company if a payment is not received by the 10th day
following its due date. Any borrower whose payment was not received by this time
is mailed a past due notice. If the loan is still delinquent after a second past
due notice is mailed (generally around the 20th day of delinquency), a branch
employee will attempt to contact the customer to resolve any problem that might
exist.
5
When an advanced stage of delinquency appears (generally around the
60th day of delinquency) and if repayment cannot be expected within a reasonable
amount of time or a repayment agreement has not been reached, the Banks will
contact an attorney and request that the required 30-day prior notice of
foreclosure or repossession proceedings be prepared and delivered to the
borrower so that, if necessary, foreclosure proceedings may be initiated shortly
after the loan is 90 days delinquent. Historically, this procedure has aided in
achieving a low level of nonperforming loans and, as of December 31, 2002, only
$7.3 million or 1.03% of the Company's total loan portfolio was over 90 days
delinquent or nonaccruing. As of December 31, 2002, the Company's level of
nonperforming assets to total assets was 0.88%.
If a credit card account becomes 10 days delinquent, a notice is sent to
the account holder demanding that the payment be made to bring the account
current. Another notice is sent to the cardholder if the account becomes 20 days
delinquent. If payment is not received within 30 days, authorization requests
are denied, a message about the delinquency appears on the cardholder's account
statement, and a follow-up telephone call is made. These telephone collection
efforts and account statement messages continue until the account is deemed
uncollectible. Legal action is considered during this time. As of December 31,
2002, approximately $10,000 in outstanding balances, or 0.59% of credit card
loans were nonperforming.
On December 31, 2002, the Company did not hold any real estate or other
repossessed collateral acquired as a result of foreclosure, voluntary deed, or
other means. Such real estate, when acquired, is classified as "other real
estate owned" until it is sold and is recorded at the lower of cost (the unpaid
principal balance at the date of acquisition plus foreclosure and other related
costs) or fair value less estimated selling expenses. Any subsequent write-down
is charged to expense. Generally, unless the property is a one-to-four family
residential dwelling and well-collateralized, interest accrual ceases in 90
days, but no later than the date of acquisition. From that date, all costs
incurred in maintaining the property are expensed. "Other real estate owned" is
appraised during the foreclosure process, prior to the time of acquisition, and
losses are recognized for the amount by which the book value of the related
mortgage loan exceeds the estimated net realizable value of the property.
The Company had no impaired loans, as defined under SFAS No. 114, at
December 31, 2002 and 2001.
The following is a summary of the Company's loan loss experience and
selected ratios for the periods presented.

At December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, the Company had nonperforming
loans totaling $7.3 million, $5.2 million, and $2.9 million, respectively.
Interest income that would have been recognized if such loans had performed in
accordance with contractual terms totaled approximately $357,000, $416,000, and
$262,000, for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
There was no interest income recognized on such loans during any of the periods.
6
ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES. The amount of the allowance for loan losses
is based on management's analysis of risks inherent in the various segments of
the loan portfolio, management's assessment of known or potential problem
credits which have come to management's attention during the ongoing analysis of
credit quality, historical loss experience, current economic conditions and
other factors. If actual circumstances and losses differ substantially from
management's assumptions and estimates, such allowance for loan losses may not
be sufficient to absorb all future losses, and net earnings could be adversely
affected. Loan loss estimates are reviewed periodically, and adjustments, if
any, are reported in earnings in the period in which they become known. In
addition, the Company maintains a portion of the allowance to cover potential
losses inherent in the portfolio that have not been specifically identified.
Although management believes that it uses the best information
available to make such determinations and that the allowance for loan losses is
adequate at December 31, 2002, future adjustments to the allowance may be
necessary, and net earnings could be affected, if circumstances and/or economic
conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the initial
determinations. A downturn in the southern and central Ohio economy and
employment levels could result in the Company experiencing increased levels of
nonperforming assets and charge-offs, increased provisions for loan losses and
reductions in income. Additionally, various regulatory agencies, as an integral
part of their examination process, periodically review the Company's allowance
for loan losses. Such agencies may require the recognition of additions to the
allowance based on their judgment of information available to them at the time
of their examination.

CLASSIFIED ASSETS. The FDIC regulations on classification of assets
require commercial banks to classify their own assets and to establish
appropriate general and specific allowances for losses, subject to FDIC review.
These regulations are designed to encourage management to evaluate assets on a
case-by-case basis and to discourage automatic classifications. Assets
classified as substandard or doubtful must be evaluated by management to
determine a reasonable general loss reserve to be included in total capital for
purposes of the Banks' risk-based capital requirement, but excluded from core
capital or tangible capital or in capital under accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America. Assets classified as loss must be
either written off or reserved for by a specific allowance that is not counted
toward capital for purposes of any of the regulatory capital requirements.
INVESTMENTS. Investment securities primarily satisfy the Company's
liquidity needs and provide a return on residual funds after lending activities.
Pursuant to the Company's written investment policy, investments may be in
interest-bearing deposits, U.S. Government and agency obligations, trust
preferred securities, state and local government obligations and
government-guaranteed mortgage-backed securities. The Company does not invest in
securities that are rated less than investment grade by a nationally recognized
statistical rating organization. A goal of the Company's investment policy is to
limit interest rate risk.
All securities-related activity is reported to the Board of Directors of
the Company. General changes in investment strategy must be reviewed and
approved by the Company's Board of Directors. The Company's senior management
can purchase and sell securities on behalf of the Company in accordance with the
Company's stated investment policy.

BORROWINGS. In addition to deposits and repayment of loan principal, the
Company obtains funds necessary for its lending activities and other general
business purposes through loans (advances) from the Federal Home Loan Bank
("FHLB") of Cincinnati. Advances from the FHLB may be on a secured or unsecured
basis depending upon a number of factors, including the purpose for which the
funds are being borrowed and the total of outstanding advances. The Company
typically utilizes FHLB advances to fund loans and to meet short-term liquidity
needs. As of December 31, 2002, Oak Hill had outstanding FHLB advances totaling
$86.1 million. See Note F to the consolidated financial statements for
additional information regarding FHLB advances. The Company also has
arrangements to borrow funds from commercial banks.
In March 2000, a Delaware trust owned by the Company (the "Trust"),
issued $5.0 million of mandatorily redeemable debt securities. The debt
securities issued by the Trust are included in the Company's regulatory capital,
specifically as a component of Tier I capital. The subordinated debentures are
the sole assets of the Trust, and the Company owns all of the common securities
of the Trust. Interest payments on the debt securities are made semi-annually at
an annual fixed interest rate of 10.875% and are reported as a component of
interest expense on borrowings. The net proceeds received by the Company from
the sale of the debt securities were used for general corporate purposes,
including repurchasing the Company's common stock and providing general working
capital.
The following table sets forth the maximum amount of the Company's FHLB
advances and other borrowings outstanding at any month end during the periods

ASSET AND LIABILITY MANAGEMENT. The Company manages its exposure to
interest rate risk through its Asset/Liability Management Committees (ALCO) at
both the Company and Oak Hill levels. Given the potential types and
characteristics of interest rate risk, the Company maintains an appropriate
process and set of measurement tools to enable it to identify and quantify its
primary sources of interest rate risk. The Company also recognizes that
effective management of interest rate risk includes understanding when and how
potential changes in interest rates will flow through the earnings statement.
Accordingly, the Company manages its position so that it monitors both its
short-term and long-term interest rate risk exposure. Tools used by management
include an interest rate sensitivity gap analysis and an interest rate
simulation model whereby changes in net interest income are measured based upon
selected hypothetical changes in market interest rates.
Net interest income, the difference between the yield on
interest-earning assets and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities, is the
principal component of the Company's net earnings. The ability to maximize net
interest income is largely dependent upon the achievement of a positive interest
rate spread that can be sustained during fluctuations in prevailing interest
rate levels. Due to the maturity, repricing and timing differences between
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, the Company's earnings
would be affected differently under various interest rate scenarios. Interest
rate sensitivity is a measure of the difference between amounts of
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing
11
liabilities, the Company's earnings would be affected differently under various
interest rate scenarios. Interest rate sensitivity is a measure of the
difference between amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing
liabilities which reprice within a given period of time. The difference, or the
interest rate repricing "gap", provides an indication of the extent to which an
interest rate spread will be affected by changes in interest rates. A gap is
considered positive when the amount of interest-rate sensitive assets exceeds
the amount of interest-rate sensitive liabilities and is considered negative
when the amount of interest-rate sensitive liabilities exceeds the amount of
interest-rate sensitive assets. Generally, during a period of rising
interest-rates, a negative gap within shorter maturities would adversely affect
net interest income, while a positive gap within shorter maturities would result
in an increase in net interest income. Conversely, during a period of falling
interest rates, a negative gap within shorter maturities would result in an
increase in net interest income, while a positive gap within shorter maturities
would have the opposite effect.
The following table contains information regarding the amounts of various
categories of assets and liabilities contractually repricing within the periods
indicated without consideration of loan prepayment assumptions or deposit decay
assumptions:

Due to the shortcomings associated with gap analysis, the Company's
primary tool in managing interest rate risk is net interest income simulations,
which measure the potential effect on earnings that instantaneous parallel and
proportional changes in interest rates could have on net interest income over
defined periods of time. The Company applies hypothetical interest rate shocks
of up and down 100, 200 and 300 basis points (100 basis points equals 1%) to its
financial instruments based upon assumed cash flows. Under the current interest
rate environment, a decline in interest rates of 200 or more basis points is
unlikely and therefore provides no meaningful information.
The parallel approach to interest rate shocks assumes that all interest
rates will simultaneously move up or down by like amounts. This approach is very
simplistic and could be viewed as a "worst case" scenario. The proportional
approach to interest rate shocks assumes that the interest rates for financial
instruments change in proportion to a single driver rate. The Company has
selected the national Prime rate as its driver rate. In the proportional
approach, the driver rate shock is multiplied by the proportional rate factors
for each financial instrument to obtain the new interest rates used to calculate
projected net interest income changes.
The following table reflects, as of December 31, 2002, projected changes
in the Company's twelve-month net interest income as a percentage of net
interest income assuming parallel and proportional interest rate shocks.
RATE SHOCK ANALYSIS

+100 basis points -15% -4.453% 2.675%
-100 basis points -15% 4.413% -1.528%
As with any methods of measuring interest rate risk, certain shortcomings
are inherent in the analysis. For example, although certain assets and
liabilities may have similar maturities or periods of repricing, they may react
differently to changes in market interest rates. Also, the interest rates on
certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in
market interest rates, while interest rates on other types of assets and
liabilities may lag behind changes in market interest rates. In the event of a
change in market interest rates, expected rates of prepayment on loans and
mortgage-backed securities, and early withdrawal levels from certificates of
deposit, would likely deviate from those assumed in making the interest rate
risk calculations. Moreover, the analysis does not contemplate all actions the
Company may take in response to changes in interest rates and should not be
relied upon as being indicative of actual results.

PERSONNEL
At December 31, 2002, the Company and its subsidiaries employed 305
persons on a full-time basis and 37 persons on a part-time basis.
EXECUTIVE OFFICES
The Company's executive office is located at 14621 State Route 93,
Jackson, Ohio 45640 and its telephone number is (740) 286-3283.
SUBSIDIARIES
The Company owns all of the outstanding stock of Oak Hill Banks, an Ohio
state-chartered bank, which was founded in 1902. The Company owns all of the
outstanding stock of Action Finance Company, a consumer finance company that was
formed in 1998. The Company owns all of the outstanding stock of Oak Hill
Capital Trust I, a Delaware statutory trust that was formed in 2000. The Company

conducts business as McNelly, Patrick & Associates, a group health insurance and
employee benefits agency acquired in August 2001. In addition, the Company has a
49% ownership interest in Oak Hill Title Agency, LLC, a limited liability
company that was formed in 2001 and commenced operations in January 2002 to
provide title services for commercial and residential real estate transactions.
REGULATION
Oak Hill, as an Ohio state-chartered bank, is subject to supervision and
regular examination by the Superintendent of Financial Institutions of the State
of Ohio. Oak Hill is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and is
subject to the provisions of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act. To the extent
that the information below consists of summaries of certain statutes or
regulations, it is qualified in its entirety by reference to the statutory or
regulatory provisions described.
The Company is subject to the provisions of the Bank Holding Company Act
of 1956, as amended (the "Act"), which requires a bank holding company to
register under the Act and to be subject to supervision and examination by the
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. A bank holding company is
required to file with the Board of Governors an annual report and such
additional information as the Board of Governors may require pursuant to the
Act. The Act requires prior approval by the Board of Governors of the
acquisition by a bank holding company, or any subsidiary thereof, of 5% or more
of the voting stock or substantially all the assets of any bank within the
United States.
A bank holding company located in the State of Ohio is not permitted to
acquire a bank or other financial institution located in another state unless
such acquisition is specifically authorized by the statutes of such state. The
Act further provides that the Board of Governors shall not approve any such
acquisition that would result in a monopoly or would be in furtherance of any
combination or conspiracy to monopolize or attempt to monopolize the business of
banking in any part of the United States, or the effect of which may be to
substantially lessen competition or to create a monopoly in any section of the
country, or that in any other manner would be in restraint of trade, unless the
anti-competitive effects of the proposed transaction are clearly outweighed in
the public interest by the probable effect of the transaction in meeting the
convenience and needs of the community to be served.
The Act also prohibits a bank holding company, with certain exceptions,
from acquiring 5% or more of the voting stock of any company that is not a bank
and from engaging in any business other than banking or performing services for
its banking subsidiary without the approval of the Board of Governors. In
addition, the acquisition of a thrift institution must be approved by the Office
of Thrift Supervision pursuant to the savings and loan holding company
provisions of the Home Owners' Loan Act of 1933. On March 13, 2000, the
Financial Services Act of 1999, also known as the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, became
effective. This legislation repealed certain cross-industry affiliation
prohibitions and made certain other changes to the Act. It authorized a new form
of holding company, a financial holding company, which with certain exceptions
is authorized to undertake activities which are "financial in nature" and which
include banking, insurance and securities activities. Generally, the scope of
activities permitted to a financial holding company are broader than those
previously permitted to a bank holding company. A bank holding company may elect
to become a financial holding company. The Company made this election and was
notified on July 11, 2001 by the Federal Reserve Bank that its election had been
approved. Under the Act, as amended by the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, the Company
is permitted to engage in certain activities, including mortgage banking,
operating small loan companies, factoring, furnishing certain data processing
operations, holding or operating properties used by banking subsidiaries or
acquired for such future use, providing certain investment and financial advice,
leasing (subject to certain conditions) real or personal property, providing
management
14
consulting advice to certain depository institutions, providing securities
brokerage services, arranging commercial real estate equity financing,
underwriting and dealing in government obligations and money market instruments,
providing consumer financial counseling, operating a collection agency, owning
and operating a savings association, operating a credit bureau and conducting
certain real estate investment activities and acting as insurance agent for
certain types of insurance. Certain other activities, including real estate
brokerage and syndication, land development, and property management not related
to credit transactions, are not permissible.
The Act and the regulations of the Board of Governors prohibit a
financial holding company and its subsidiaries from engaging in certain tie-in
arrangements in connection with any extension of credit, lease or sale of
property, or furnishing of services.
The Act also imposes certain restrictions upon dealing by affiliated
banks with the holding company and among themselves including restrictions on
interbank borrowing and upon dealings in respect to the securities or
obligations of the holding company or other affiliates.
On October 26, 2001 President Bush signed the USA Patriot Act of 2001
(the "Patriot Act"). Enacted in response to the September 11, 2001 terrorist
attacks, the Patriot Act is intended to strengthen the ability of various
agencies of the United States to work cohesively to combat terrorism on a
variety of fronts. The potential impact of the Patriot Act on financial
institutions of all kinds is significant and wide ranging. The Patriot Act
contains sweeping anti-money laundering and financial transparency laws and
requires various regulations, including:
o Due diligence requirements for financial institutions that
administer, maintain, or manage private bank accounts or
correspondent accounts for non-U.S. persons;
o Standards for verifying customer identification at account opening;
o Rules to promote cooperation among financial institutions,
regulators, and law enforcement entities in identifying parties that
may be involved in terrorism or money laundering;
o Reports by non-financial trades and businesses filed with the
Treasury Department's Financial Crimes Enforcement Network for
transactions exceeding $10,000 and;
o Filing of suspicious activities reports for securities transactions
by brokers and dealers if they believe a customer may be violating
U.S. laws and regulations.
On July 30, 2002, President Bush signed into law the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act of 2002 (the "Sarbanes-Oxley Act"). The stated goals of the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act are to increase corporate responsibility, to provide for enhanced penalties
for accounting and auditing improprieties at publicly traded companies and to
protect investors by improving the accuracy and reliability of corporate
disclosures made pursuant to the securities laws. The proposed changes are
intended to allow shareholders to monitor the performance of companies and
directors more easily and efficiently.
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act generally applies to all companies, both U.S.
and non-U.S., that file or are required to file periodic reports with the SEC
under the Exchange Act. Further, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act includes very specific
additional disclosure requirements and new corporate governance rules, requires
the SEC, securities exchanges and the NASDAQ Stock Market to adopt extensive
additional disclosure, corporate governance and other related rules and mandates
further studies of certain issues by the SEC and the Comptroller General. Given
the extensive SEC role in implementing rules relating to many of the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act's new requirements, the final scope of these requirements
remains to be determined.
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act addresses, among other matters: audit
committees; auditor independence; analysts' conflicts of interest; certification
of financial statements by the chief executive officer and the chief financial
officer; the forfeiture of bonuses and profits made by directors and senior
officers in the twelve month period covered by restated financial statements; a
prohibition on insider trading during pension plan black-out periods; disclosure
of off-balance sheet transactions; a prohibition on personal loans to directors
and officers (excluding Federally insured financial institutions); expedited
filing requirements for stock transaction reports by officers and directors; the
formation of a public accounting oversight board; and various increased criminal
penalties for violations of securities laws.
Effective August 29, 2002, as directed by Section 302(a) of the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer are each required to certify that the Company's Quarterly and Annual
Reports do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact. The rules have
several requirements, including having these officers certify
15
that:
o They are responsible for establishing, maintaining and regularly
evaluating the effectiveness of the Company's internal controls;
o They have made certain disclosures to the Company's auditors and the
audit committee of the Board of Directors of the Company about the
Company's internal controls and;
o They have included information in the Company's Quarterly and Annual
Reports about their evaluation and whether there have been
significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in other
factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent
to the evaluation.
In addition, management has instituted a series of actions to strengthen
and improve the Company's already strong corporate governance practices.
Included in those actions was the formation of a new Disclosure Controls
Committee for Financial Reporting (the "Disclosure Committee"), to evaluate and
monitor the continued effectiveness of the design and operation of disclosure
controls for financial reporting. The Disclosure Committee complements the
Company's existing committee structure and process and is designed to capture
critical management information and disclosures from the Company and each of its
affiliates. The Company believes that the addition of the Disclosure Committee
enhances its already effective disclosure processes.
The earnings of banks and consumer finance companies, and therefore the
earnings of the Company (and its subsidiaries), are affected by the policies of
regulatory authorities, including the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System. An important function of the Federal Reserve Board is to regulate the
national supply of bank credit in an effort to prevent recession and to restrain
inflation. Among the procedures used to implement these objectives are open
market operations in U.S. Government securities, changes in the discount rate on
member bank borrowings, and changes in reserve requirements against member bank
deposits. These procedures are used in varying combinations to influence overall
growth and distribution of bank loans, investments and deposits, and their use
also may affect interest rates charged on loans or paid for deposits. Monetary
policies of the Federal Reserve Board have had a significant effect on the
operating results of commercial banks in the past and are expected to continue
to do so in the future. The effect, if any, of such policies upon the future
business and earnings of the Company cannot accurately be predicted. The Company
makes no attempt to predict the effect on its revenues and earnings of changes
in general economic, industrial, and international conditions or in legislation
and governmental regulations. The Company is not able to predict the impact of
such laws or governmental regulations on its financial condition or results of
operations at this time.
BUSINESS RISKS
Except for the historical information contained herein, the matters
discussed in this Form 10-K include certain forward-looking statements within
the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), which are
intended to be covered by the safe harbors created thereby. Those statements
include, but may not be limited to, all statements regarding the intent, belief
and expectations of the Company and its management, such as statements
concerning the Company's future profitability. Investors are cautioned that all
forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties including, without
limitation, factors detailed from time to time in the Company's filings with the
SEC. Although the Company believes that the assumptions underlying the
forward-looking statements contained herein are reasonable, any of the
assumptions could be inaccurate. Therefore, there can be no assurance that the
forward-looking statements included in this Form 10-K will prove to be accurate,
and in light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking
statements included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be
regarded as a presentation by the Company or any other person that the
objectives and plans of the Company will be achieved.
GROWTH STRATEGY. The Company has pursued and continues to pursue a
strategy of growth. The success of the Company's growth strategy will depend
largely upon its ability to manage its credit risk and control its costs while
providing competitive products and services. This growth strategy may present
special risks, such as the risk that the Company will not efficiently handle
growth with its present operations, the risk of dilution of book value and
earnings per share as a result of an acquisition, the risk that earnings will be
adversely affected by the start-up costs associated with establishing new
products and services, the risk that the Company will not be able to attract and
retain qualified personnel needed for expanded operations, and the risk that its
internal monitoring and control systems may prove inadequate.
CONTROL BY MANAGEMENT; ANTI-TAKEOVER PROVISIONS. Evan E. Davis, John D.
Kidd and D. Bruce Knox (the "Principal Stockholders") beneficially own in the
aggregate approximately 33.8% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the
16
Company at February 26, 2003. In addition to Ohio and federal laws and
regulations governing changes in control of insured depository institutions, the
Company's Articles of Incorporation and Code of Regulations contain certain
provisions that may delay or make more difficult an acquisition of control of
the Company. For example, the Company's Articles of Incorporation do not exempt
the Company from the provisions of Ohio's "control share acquisition" and
"merger moratorium" statutes. Assuming that the Principal Stockholders continue
to retain the number of the outstanding voting shares of the Company that they
presently own and the law of Ohio requires, as it presently does, at least
two-thirds majority vote of the outstanding shares to approve a merger or other
consolidation, unless the articles of incorporation of the constituent companies
provide for a lower approval percentage for the transaction, which the Company's
articles do not provide, such ownership position could be expected to deter any
prospective acquirer from seeking to acquire ownership or control of the
Company, and the Principal Stockholders would be able to defeat any acquisition
proposal that requires approval of the Company's stockholders, if the Principal
Stockholders chose to do so. In addition, the Principal Stockholders may make a
private sale of shares of common stock of the Company that they own, including
to a person seeking to acquire ownership or control of the Company. The Company
has 3,000,000 shares of authorized but unissued preferred stock, par value $ .01
per share, which may be issued in the future with such rights, privileges and
preferences as are determined by the Board of Directors of the Company. In
December 1997, the Board of Directors of the Company approved and adopted a
stockholder rights plan that contemplates the issuance of rights to purchase
preferred stock of the Company to the Company's common stockholders of record as
of February 17, 1998, as set forth in the Rights Agreement entered into between
the Company and Fifth Third Bank on January 23, 1998. On December 26, 2000, the
Company amended the Rights Agreement to appoint Registrar and Transfer Company
as successor Rights Agent under the Rights Agreement due to the resignation of
Fifth Third Bank as Rights Agent. The Board of Directors of the Company approved
the appointment of Registrar and Transfer Company pursuant to a resolution dated
November 14, 2000. John D. Kidd and Evan E. Davis also have entered into a
Buy-Sell Agreement dated April 11, 2001 (the "Agreement"), whereby in the event
of either one's death, the survivor shall have the right to purchase some or all
of the shares of the Company held by the deceased's estate. In connection with
the Agreement, Mr. Kidd and Mr. Davis each have executed a Limited Power of
Attorney giving the other sole right, power and authority to vote all of the
shares of the Company that he holds in the event of his incapacity.
LIMITED TRADING MARKET; SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE; POSSIBLE
VOLATILITY OF STOCK PRICE. The Common Stock is traded on the Nasdaq National
Market under the symbol "OAKF." During the 12 months ending March 10, 2003, the
average weekly trading volume in the Common Stock has been approximately 36,300
shares per week. There can be no assurance given as to the liquidity of the
market for the Common Stock or the price at which any sales may occur, which
price will depend upon, among other things, the number of holders thereof, the
interest of securities dealers in maintaining a market in the Common Stock and
other factors beyond the control of the Company. The market price of the Common
Stock could be adversely affected by the sale of additional shares of Common
Stock owned by the Company's current shareholders. The Principal Shareholders
are permitted to sell certain limited amounts of Common Stock without
registration, pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act. The market price
for the Common Stock could be subject to significant fluctuations in response to
variations in quarterly and yearly operating results, general trends in the
banking industry and other factors. In addition, the stock market can experience
price and volume fluctuations that may be unrelated or disproportionate to the
operating performance of affected companies. These broad fluctuations may
adversely affect the market price of the Common Stock.
DEPENDENCE ON MANAGEMENT. The Company's success depends to a great
extent on its senior management, including its Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer, John D. Kidd; President, Ralph E. Coffman, Jr.; Executive Vice
President, Richard P. LeGrand; Executive Vice President and Chief Operating
Officer, David G. Ratz; Vice President, Scott J. Hinsch, Jr.; Secretary, H. Tim
Bichsel; Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer, Ron J. Copher; and Chief
Information Officer, D. Bruce Knox. The loss of their individual services could
have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial stability and its
operations. In addition, the Company's future performance depends on its ability
to attract and retain key personnel and skilled employees, particularly at the
senior management level. The Company's financial stability and its operations
could be adversely affected if, for any reason, one or more key executive
officers ceased to be active in the Company's management. The Company does not
own "key man" life insurance on the lives of any of its senior management.
COMPETITION. Banking institutions operate in a highly competitive
environment. The Company competes with other commercial banks, credit unions,
savings institutions, finance companies, mortgage companies, mutual funds, and
other financial institutions, many of which have substantially greater financial
resources than the Company. Certain of these competitors offer products and
services that are not offered by the Company and certain competitors are not
subject to the same extensive laws and regulations as the Company. Additionally,
consolidation of the financial services industry in Ohio and in the Midwest in
recent years has increased the level of competition. Recent and proposed
regulatory changes may further intensify competition in the Company's market
area.
17
HOLDING COMPANY STRUCTURE; GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS AND POLICIES. The
Company is a financial holding company, which is substantially dependent on the
profitability of its subsidiaries and the upstream payment of dividends from the
Banks to the Company. Under state and federal banking law, the payment of
dividends by the Company and the Banks are subject to capital adequacy
requirements. The inability of the Banks to generate profits and pay such
dividends to the Company, or regulator restrictions on the payment of such
dividends to the Company even if earned, would have an adverse effect on the
financial condition and results of operations of the Company and the Company's
ability to pay dividends to the shareholders.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.
As of December 31, 2002, the registrant and its subsidiaries operate

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
OVERVIEW
Oak Hill Financial, Inc. (the "Company") is a financial holding company
the principal assets of which have been its ownership of Oak Hill Banks ("Oak
Hill"), Towne Bank ("Towne"), (collectively "Banks"), Action Finance Company
("Action") and McNelly, Patrick and Associates ("MPA"). Accordingly, the
Company's results of operations are primarily dependent upon the results of
operations of its subsidiaries.
During 2002, the Board of Directors of the Company, Oak Hill and Towne
approved a business plan whereby the Banks merged on November 30, 2002 into a
single bank charter under the name Oak Hill Banks. Hereinafter, the term "Oak
Hill" describes the preexisting individual banks owned by the Company.
Oak Hill conducts general commercial banking businesses that consist of
attracting deposits from the general public and using those funds to originate
loans for commercial, consumer, and residential purposes. Action is a consumer
finance company that originates installment and home equity loans. MPA is an
insurance agency specializing in group health insurance and other employee
benefits.
Oak Hill's and Action's profitability depend primarily on their net
interest income, which is the difference between interest income generated from
interest-earning assets (i.e., loans and investments) less the interest expense
incurred on interest-bearing liabilities (i.e., deposits and borrowed funds).
Net interest income is affected by the relative amounts of interest-earning
assets and interest-bearing liabilities, and the interest rates paid on these
balances. Additionally, and to a lesser extent, profitability is affected by
such factors as the level of non-interest income and expenses, the provision for
losses on loans, and the effective tax rate. Other income consists primarily of
service charges and other fees and income from the sale of loans. General,
administrative and other expenses consist of compensation and benefits,
occupancy-related expenses, franchise taxes, and other operating expenses.
On August 31, 2001, the Company combined with Innovative Financial
Services Agency, Inc. ("IFS") in a transaction whereby IFS became a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company. IFS is an insurance agency specializing in group
health insurance and other employee benefits in southern and central Ohio. IFS
was renamed Oak Hill Financial Insurance Agency, Inc. and conducts business as
McNelly, Patrick and Associates ("MPA"). The transaction was initiated prior to
July 1, 2001 and was accounted for as a pooling-of-interests. Accordingly, the
consolidated financial statements have previously been restated to reflect the
effects of the business combination as of January 1, 2000. Pursuant to the
merger agreement, the Company issued 172,414 shares of common stock in exchange
for the shares of IFS.
On September 30, 2001, the Company formed Oak Hill Title Agency, LLC
("Oak Hill Title") in conjunction with a law firm to provide title services for
commercial and residential real estate transactions. Oak Hill Title commenced
operations in January 2002.
Management's discussion and analysis of earnings and related financial
data are presented herein to assist investors in understanding the consolidated
financial condition and results of operations of the Company as of and for the
years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001. This discussion should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related footnotes
presented elsewhere in this report.
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
In the following pages, management presents an analysis of the
Company's financial condition as of December 31, 2002, and the results of
operations for the year ended December 31, 2002, as compared to prior periods.
In addition to this historical information, the following discussion and other
sections of this Annual Report contain forward-looking statements that involve
risks and uncertainties. Economic circumstances, the Company's operations and
the Company's actual results could differ significantly from those discussed in
the forward-looking statements. Some of the factors that could cause or
contribute to such differences are discussed herein but also include changes in
the economy and interest rates in the nation and the Company's general market
area. Without limiting the foregoing, some of the forward-looking statements
include management's establishment of an allowance for loan losses, and its
statements regarding the adequacy of such allowance for loan losses, and
management's belief that the allowance for loan losses is adequate.
23
FINANCIAL CONDITION
The Company's total assets amounted to $833.6 million as of December
31, 2002, an increase of $55.3 million, or 7.1%, over the $778.3 million total
at December 31, 2001. The increase was funded primarily through growth in
deposits of $51.6 million, an increase of $2.3 million in securities sold under
agreements to repurchase and an increase in stockholders' equity of $10.5
million, which were partially offset by a $7.9 million decrease in FHLB
advances.
Cash and due from banks, federal funds sold, and investment securities,
including mortgage-backed securities, decreased by $1.1 million, or 1.0%, to a
total of $108.4 million at December 31, 2002, compared to $109.5 million at
December 31, 2001. Investment securities increased by $4.8 million, as purchases
of $59.1 million exceeded maturities and repayments of $21.9 million and sales
of $33.4 million. Federal funds sold decreased by $6.1 million during 2002.
Loans receivable totaled $701.9 million at December 31, 2002, an
increase of $55.9 million, or 8.6%, over total loans at December 31, 2001. Loan
disbursements totaled $498.3 million during 2002, which were partially offset by
loan sales of $109.2 million and principal repayments of $332.1 million during
2002. Loan disbursements and sales volume increased by $120.5 million and $34.1
million, respectively, as compared to 2001 volume. The low interest rate
environment during 2002 contributed to the overall increases in loan origination
and sales volume, as borrowers refinanced loans to lower interest rates and Oak
Hill generally sold such lower interest rate loans in the secondary market.
Growth in the loan portfolio during 2002 was comprised of a $175.0 million, or
80.8%, increase in commercial and other loans and a $9.2 million, or 14.6%,
increase in installment loans, which were partially offset by a $127.5 million,
or 34.2%, decrease in real estate mortgage loans. The Company's allowance for
loan losses totaled $9.1 million at December 31, 2002, an increase of $797,000,
or 9.6%, over the total at December 31, 2001. The allowance for loan losses
represented 1.29% and 1.28% of the total loan portfolio at December 31, 2002 and
2001, respectively. Net charge-offs totaled $2.0 million and $1.4 million for
the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The Company's
allowance represented 125.3% and 160.0% of nonperforming loans, which totaled
$7.3 million and $5.2 million at December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. At
December 31, 2002, nonperforming loans were comprised of $897,000 in installment
loans, $4.2 million of loans secured primarily by commercial real estate and
$2.2 million of loans secured by one-to-four family residential real estate. In
management's opinion, all nonperforming loans were adequately collateralized at
December 31, 2002.
Deposits totaled $663.8 million at December 31, 2002, an increase of
$51.6 million, or 8.4%, over the $612.2 million total at December 31, 2001. The
increase resulted primarily from management's continuing marketing efforts to
attract demand deposits and low-cost core deposits as well as competitive
pricing with respect to certificate of deposit products throughout Oak Hill's
branch network. Proceeds from deposit growth were used primarily to fund loan
originations and to repay FHLB advances.
Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank totaled $86.1 million at
December 31, 2002, a decrease of $7.9 million, or 8.4%, from the December 31,
2001 total. In recognition of the declining interest rate environment during
2002, management obtained generally longer term and lower cost advances in 2002
compared to the maturities and cost of advances obtained from the Federal Home
Loan Bank during 2001. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase increased
by $2.3 million, the proceeds of which were primarily used to fund loan
originations and securities purchases during the period.
In March 2000, a Delaware statutory business trust owned by the Company
(the "Trust"), issued $5.0 million of mandatorily redeemable debt securities.
The debt securities issued by the Trust are included in the Company's regulatory
capital, specifically as a component of Tier I capital. The proceeds from the
issuance of the subordinated debentures and common securities were used by the
Trust to purchase from the Company $5.0 million of subordinated debentures
maturing on March 8, 2030. The subordinated debentures are the sole asset of the
Trust, and the Company owns all of the common securities of the Trust. Interest
payments on the debt securities are to be made semi-annually at an annual fixed
rate of interest of 10.875% and are reported as a component of interest expense
on borrowings.
The Company's stockholders' equity amounted to $66.9 million at
December 31, 2002, an increase of $10.5 million, or 18.7%, over the balance at
December 31, 2001. The increase resulted primarily from net earnings of $10.3
million, proceeds from options exercised of $1.5 million, and an increase in the
unrealized gain on securities, net of tax, totaling $1.3 million, which were
partially offset by $2.6 million in dividends declared on common stock.

SUMMARY OF EARNINGS
The table on page 28 shows for each category of interest-earning assets
and interest-bearing liabilities, the average amount outstanding, the interest
earned or paid on such amount, and the average rate earned or paid for the years
ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000. The table also shows the average rate
earned on all interest-earning assets, the average rate paid on all
interest-bearing liabilities, the interest rate spread, and the net interest
margin for the same periods.
Changes in net interest income are attributable to either changes in
average balances (volume change) or changes in average rates (rate change) for
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Volume change is
calculated as change in volume times the old rate, while rate change is
calculated as change in rate times the old volume. The table below indicates the
dollar amount of the change attributable to each factor. The rate/volume change,
the change in rate times the change in volume, is allocated between the volume
change and the rate change at the ratio each component bears to the absolute
value of their total.
COMPARISON OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2002 AND
2001
GENERAL. Net earnings for the year ended December 31, 2002 totaled
$10.3 million, a $1.6 million, or 18.6%, increase over 2001 net earnings. The
increase in earnings resulted primarily from a $3.6 million increase in net
interest income and a $922,000 increase in other income, which were partially
offset by a $166,000 increase in the provision for losses on loans, a $2.0
million increase in general, administrative and other expense, and a $718,000
increase in the provision for federal income taxes.
NET INTEREST INCOME. Total interest income for the year ended December
31, 2002, amounted to $57.2 million, a decrease of $2.5 million, or 4.2%, from
the $59.7 million recorded for 2001. Interest income on loans totaled $52.7
million, a decrease of $2.4 million, or 4.3%, from the 2001 period. This
decrease resulted primarily from a 120 basis point decrease in the average
fully-taxable equivalent yield, to 7.65% in 2002 from 8.85% in 2001, which was
partially offset by a $67.1 million, or 10.8%, increase in the weighted-average
("average") portfolio balance, to a total of $690.5 million in 2002. Interest
income on investment securities and other interest-earning assets decreased by
$127,000, or 2.7%. The decrease resulted primarily from a 115 basis point
decrease in the average fully-taxable equivalent yield, to 4.97% in 2002, which
was partially offset by an $18.7 million, or 22.9%, increase in the average
portfolio balance, to a total of $100.3 million in 2002.
Total interest expense amounted to $24.7 million for the year ended
December 31, 2002, a decrease of $6.1 million, or 19.7%, from the $30.8 million
recorded in 2001. Interest expense on deposits decreased by $6.1 million, or
23.6%, to a total of $19.7 million in 2002. The decrease resulted primarily from
a 151 basis point decrease in the average cost of deposits, to 3.32% in 2002,
which was partially offset by a $60.6 million, or 11.4%, increase in the average
portfolio balance, to a total of $592.9 million in 2002. Interest expense on
borrowings increased by $9,000, or 0.2%, during 2002. This increase was due to a
$14.7 million, or 16.8%, increase in average borrowings outstanding, which was
partially offset by an 83 basis point decrease in the average cost of
borrowings, to 4.98% in 2002. The decrease in the level of yields on
interest-earning assets and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities was
primarily due to the overall decrease in interest rates in the economy
throughout 2002 and 2001.
As a result of the foregoing changes in interest income and interest
expense, net interest income increased by $3.6 million, or 12.3%, for the year
ended December 31, 2002, as compared to 2001. The interest rate spread increased
by 19 basis points to 3.75% in 2002, compared to 3.56% in 2001. The
fully-taxable equivalent net interest margin increased by 1 basis point from,
4.17% in 2001 to 4.18% in 2002.
PROVISION FOR LOSSES ON LOANS. A provision for losses on loans is
charged to earnings to bring the total allowance for loan losses to a level
considered appropriate by management based on historical experience, the volume
and type of lending conducted by the Company, the status of past due principal
and interest payments, general economic conditions, particularly as such
conditions relate to the Company's market area and other factors related to the
collectibility of the Company's loan portfolio. As a result of such analysis,
management recorded a $2.8 million provision for losses on loans for the year
ended December 31, 2002, an increase of $166,000, or 6.4%, compared to 2001. The
provision for losses on loans in 2002 was predicated upon the $56.7 million of
growth in the gross loan portfolio and an increase of $2.1 million in
nonperforming loans from $5.2 million in 2001 to $7.3 million at December 31,
2002.
Although management believes that it uses the best information
available in providing for possible loan losses and believes that the allowance
is adequate at December 31, 2002, future adjustments to the allowance could be
necessary and net earnings could be affected if circumstances and/or economic
conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the initial
determinations.
OTHER INCOME. Other income totaled $8.1 million for the year ended
December 31, 2002, an increase of $922,000, or 12.8%, over the 2001 amount. This
increase resulted primarily from a $973,000, or 70.3%, increase in gain on
25
sale of loans, a $169,000, or 6.3%, increase in service fees, charges, and other
operating income and a $254,000, or 11.5%, increase in insurance commissions,
which were partially offset by a $778,000 decrease in the gain on sale of
branches.
GENERAL, ADMINISTRATIVE AND OTHER EXPENSE. General, administrative and
other expense totaled $22.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2002, an
increase of $2.0 million, or 9.6%, over the 2001 total. The increase resulted
primarily from a $1.4 million, or 11.7%, increase in employee compensation and
benefits, a $140,000, or 2.4%, increase in other operating expenses, an increase
of $344,000, or 16.5%, in occupancy and equipment and a $108,000, or 41.7%,
increase in merger-related expenses.
The increase in employee compensation and benefits resulted primarily
from increased staffing levels required in connection with the establishment of
new branch locations, additional management staffing and normal merit increases.
The increase in other operating expense resulted primarily from an increase in
costs associated with an EDP upgrade and related training expenditures totaling
$246,000, which was partially offset by a $143,000 decrease in professional fees
unrelated to merger transactions. The remaining increase of $37,000, or 26.4%,
was due to pro-rata increases in other operating expenses attendant to the
Company's overall growth year-to-year. The increase in occupancy and equipment
expense was due primarily to a $130,000, or 28.3%, increase in rent expense, a
$220,000 increase in maintenance contracts associated with the previously
mentioned EDP upgrade, and a $20,000, or 13.8%, increase in maintenance and
repairs to buildings and equipment, which were partially offset by a $26,000, or
3.2%, decrease in depreciation expense year-to-year. The increase in
merger-related expenses was due to $367,000 incurred in connection with the
previously mentioned Oak Hill-Towne merger in 2002, compared to $259,000
incurred in connection with the MPA merger in 2001.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES. The provision for federal income taxes amounted
to $4.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2002, an increase of $718,000,
or 17.4%, over the $4.1 million recorded in 2001. The increase resulted
primarily from a $2.3 million, or 18.2%, increase in earnings before taxes. The
effective tax rates were 31.9% and 32.2% for the years ended December 31, 2002
and 2001, respectively.
COMPARISON OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2001 AND
2000
GENERAL. Net earnings for the year ended December 31, 2001 totaled $8.7
million, a $2.4 million, or 37.6%, increase over 2000 net earnings. The increase
in earnings resulted primarily from a $3.9 million increase in net interest
income and a $2.8 million increase in other income, which were partially offset
by a $328,000 increase in the provision for losses on loans, a $2.9 million
increase in general, administrative and other expense, and a $959,000 increase
in the provision for federal income taxes.
NET INTEREST INCOME. Total interest income for the year ended December
31, 2001, amounted to $59.7 million, an increase of $5.1 million, or 9.4%, over
the $54.6 million recorded for 2000. Interest income on loans totaled $55.0
million, an increase of $4.7 million, or 9.2%, over the 2000 period. This
increase resulted primarily from a $66.4 million, or 11.9%, increase in the
weighted-average ("average") portfolio balance, to a total of $623.5 million in
2001, which was partially offset by a 20 basis point decrease in the average
fully-taxable equivalent yield, to 8.85% in 2001 from 9.05% in 2000. Interest
income on investment securities and other interest-earning assets increased by
$471,000, or 11.2%. The increase resulted primarily from an $18.1 million, or
28.6%, increase in the average portfolio balance, to a total of $81.6 million in
2001, which was partially offset by a 65 basis point decrease in the average
fully-taxable equivalent yield, to 6.12% in 2001.
Total interest expense amounted to $30.8 million for the year ended
December 31, 2001, an increase of $1.3 million, or 4.3%, over the $29.5 million
recorded in 2000. Interest expense on deposits increased by $957,000, or 3.9%,
to a total of $25.7 million in 2001. The increase resulted primarily from a
$59.1 million, or 12.5%, increase in the average portfolio balance, to a total
of $532.2 million in 2001, which was partially offset by a 40 basis point
decrease in the average cost of deposits, to 4.83% in 2001. Interest expense on
borrowings increased by $315,000, or 6.6%, during 2001. This increase was due to
a $15.1 million, or 21.0%, increase in average borrowings outstanding, which was
partially offset by a 78 basis point decrease in the average cost of borrowings,
to 5.81% in 2001. The decrease in the level of yields on interest-earning assets
and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities was primarily due to the overall
decrease in interest rates in the economy during 2001.
As a result of the foregoing changes in interest income and interest
expense, net interest income increased by $3.9 million, or 15.4%, for the year
ended December 31, 2001, as compared to 2000. The interest rate spread increased
by 16 basis points to 3.56% in 2001, compared to 3.40% in 2000. The
fully-taxable equivalent net interest margin increased by 11 basis points from,
4.06% in 2000 to 4.17% in 2001.
PROVISION FOR LOSSES ON LOANS. A provision for losses on loans is
charged to earnings to bring the total allowance for loan losses to a level
considered appropriate by management based on historical experience, the volume
and type of lending conducted by the Company, the status of past due principal
and interest payments, general economic conditions, particularly as such
conditions relate to the Company's market area and other factors related to the
collectibility of the Company's loan portfolio. As a result of such analysis,
management recorded a $2.6 million provision for losses on
26
loans for the year ended December 31, 2001, an increase of $328,000, or 14.5%,
compared to 2000. The provision for losses on loans in 2001 was predicated upon
the $47.0 million of growth in the loan portfolio and the increase in
nonperforming loans year-to-year.
OTHER INCOME. Other income totaled $7.2 million for the year ended
December 31, 2001, an increase of $2.8 million, or 62.2%, over the 2000 amount.
This increase resulted primarily from a $1.2 million increase in gain on sale of
loans, a $178,000, or 7.1%, increase in service fees, charges, and other
operating income, and a $113,000, or 5.4%, increase in insurance commissions.
Additionally the Company realized a gain on sales of securities during 2001
totaling $43,000, compared to a loss recorded in 2000 of $319,000. Also during
2001, Towne recorded a gain on the sale of a branch totaling $900,000.
GENERAL, ADMINISTRATIVE AND OTHER EXPENSE. General, administrative and
other expense totaled $20.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2001, an
increase of $2.9 million, or 16.6%, over the 2000 total. The increase resulted
primarily from a $1.7 million, or 16.8%, increase in employee compensation and
benefits, a $720,000, or 14.2%, increase in other operating expenses, an
increase of $108,000, or 5.5%, in occupancy and equipment and $259,000 incurred
in connection with the previously mentioned MPA merger.
The increase in employee compensation and benefits resulted primarily
from increased staffing levels required in connection with the establishment of
new branch locations, additional management staffing and normal merit increases.
The increase in other operating expense resulted primarily from an increase in
professional fees totaling $192,000 and an increase in costs associated with ATM
transaction charges and data processing totaling $94,000. Charitable
contributions expense increased in 2001 due primarily to a $216,000 provision
recorded in connection with the Company's resolution to establish a charitable
foundation for support of activities in the communities served by the Company
and its subsidiaries. Future contributions to the charitable fund may be made at
the discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company and its subsidiaries.
The remaining increase of $218,000, or 4.3%, was due to pro-rata increases in
other operating expenses attendant to the Company's overall growth year-to-year.
The increase in occupancy and equipment expense was due primarily to a $129,000,
or 43.6%, increase in rent expense, which was partially offset by a $30,000, or
3.5%, decrease in depreciation expense year-to-year.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES. The provision for federal income taxes amounted
to $4.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2001, an increase of $959,000,
or 30.2%, over the $3.2 million recorded in 2000. The increase resulted
primarily from a $3.3 million, or 35.2%, increase in earnings before taxes. The
effective tax rates were 32.2% and 33.4% for the years ended December 31, 2001
and 2000, respectively.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Like other financial institutions, the Company must ensure that
sufficient funds are available to meet deposit withdrawals, loan commitments,
and expenses. Control of the Company's cash flow requires the anticipation of
deposit flows and loan payments. The Company's primary sources of funds are
deposits, borrowings and principal and interest payments on loans. The Company
uses funds from deposit inflows, proceeds from borrowings and principal and
interest payments on loans primarily to originate loans, and to purchase
short-term investment securities and interest-bearing deposits.
At December 31, 2002, the Company had $253.9 million of certificates of
deposit maturing within one year. It has been the Company's historic experience
that such certificates of deposit will be renewed with Oak Hill at market rates
of interest. It is management's belief that maturing certificates of deposit
over the next year will similarly be renewed with the Oak Hill at market rates
of interest without a material adverse effect on the results of operations.
In the event that certificates of deposit cannot be renewed at
prevalent market rates, the Company can obtain up to $115.3 million in advances
from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati (FHLB). Also, as an operational
philosophy, the Company seeks to obtain advances to help with asset/liability
management and liquidity. At December 31, 2002, the Company had $86.1 million of
outstanding FHLB advances.
At December 31, 2002, loan commitments, or loans committed but not
closed, totaled $25.1 million. Additionally, the Company had unused lines of
credit and letters of credit totaling $90.8 million and $563,000, respectively.
Funding for these amounts is expected to be provided by the sources described
above. Management believes the Company has adequate resources to meet its normal
funding requirements.

OAK HILL FINANCIAL, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000
NOTE A -- SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Oak Hill Financial, Inc. (the "Company") is a financial holding company
the principal assets of which have been its ownership of Oak Hill Banks ("Oak
Hill"), Towne Bank ("Towne"), (collectively "Banks"), Action Finance Company
("Action") and McNelly, Patrick and Associates ("MPA"). Accordingly, the
Company's results of operations are primarily dependent upon the results of
operations of its subsidiaries. During 2002, the Board of Directors of the
Company, Oak Hill and Towne approved a business plan whereby the Banks merged on
November 30, 2002 into a single bank charter under the name Oak Hill Banks.
Hereinafter, the consolidated financial statements use the term "Oak Hill" to
describe the preexisting individual banks owned by the Company.
Oak Hill conducts a general commercial banking business in southern and
central Ohio which consists of attracting deposits from the general public and
applying those funds to the origination of loans for commercial, consumer and
residential purposes. Action is a consumer finance company that originates
installment and home equity loans. Oak Hill's and Action's profitability are
significantly dependent on net interest income, which is the difference between
interest income generated from interest-earning assets (i.e., loans and
investments) and the interest expense paid on interest-bearing liabilities
(i.e., customer deposits and borrowed funds). Net interest income is affected by
the relative amount of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities
and the interest received or paid on these balances. The level of interest rates
paid or received by Oak Hill and Action can be significantly influenced by a
number of competitive factors, such as governmental monetary policy, that are
outside of management's control.
On August 31, 2001, the Company combined with Innovative Financial
Services Agency, Inc. ("IFS") in a transaction whereby IFS became a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company. IFS is an insurance agency specializing in group
health insurance and other employee benefits in southern and central Ohio. IFS
was renamed Oak Hill Financial Insurance Agency, Inc. and conducts business as
McNelly, Patrick and Associates ("MPA"). The transaction was initiated prior to
July 1, 2001 and was accounted for as a pooling-of-interests. Accordingly, the
consolidated financial statements have previously been restated to reflect the
effects of the business combination as of January 1, 2000. Pursuant to the
merger agreement, the Company issued 172,414 shares of common stock in exchange
for the shares of IFS.
On September 30, 2001, the Company formed Oak Hill Title Agency, LLC
("Oak Hill Title") in conjunction with a law firm to provide title services for
commercial and residential real estate transactions. Oak Hill Title commenced
operations in January 2002.
The consolidated financial information presented herein has been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") and general accounting practices within
the financial services industry. In preparing financial statements in accordance
with U.S. GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
from such estimates.
The following is a summary of the Company's significant accounting
policies which have been consistently applied in the preparation of the
accompanying consolidated financial statements.
1. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Oak Hill, Action, Oak Hill Capital
Trust I, MPA and Oak Hill Title. All intercompany balances and transactions have
been eliminated.
2. INVESTMENT SECURITIES
TheCompany accounts for investment securities in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 115, "Accounting for
Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities." SFAS No. 115 requires that
investments be categorized as held to maturity, trading, or available for sale.
Securities classified as held to maturity are carried at cost only if the
Company has the positive intent and ability to hold these securities to
maturity. Trading securities
43
OAK HILL FINANCIAL, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
For the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000
and securities available for sale are carried at fair value with resulting
unrealized gains or losses recorded to operations or stockholders' equity,
respectively.
Realized gains and losses on sales of securities are recognized using
the specific identification method.
3. LOANS RECEIVABLE
Loans held in portfolio are stated at the principal amount outstanding,
adjusted for premiums and discounts on loans purchased and sold and the
allowance for loan losses. Premiums and discounts on loans purchased and sold
are amortized and accreted to operations using the interest method over the
average life of the underlying loans.
Interest is accrued as earned unless the collectibility of the loan is
in doubt. Uncollectible interest on loans that are contractually past due is
charged off, or an allowance is established based on management's periodic
evaluation. The allowance is established by a charge to interest income equal to
all interest previously accrued, and income is subsequently recognized only to
the extent that cash payments are received until, in management's judgment, the
borrower's ability to make periodic interest and principal payments has returned
to normal, in which case the loan is returned to accrual status.
Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or market,
determined in the aggregate. Loans held for sale are identified at the point of
origination. In computing lower of cost or market, deferred loan origination
fees are deducted from the principal balance of the related loan. All loan sales
are made without further recourse to Oak Hill. At December 31, 2002 and 2001,
loans held for sale were carried at cost.
Oak Hill generally retains servicing on loans sold and agrees to remit
to the investor loan principal and interest at agreed-upon rates. Mortgage
servicing rights are accounted for pursuant to the provisions of SFAS No. 140,
"Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments
of Liabilities," which requires that Oak Hill recognize as separate assets,
rights to service mortgage loans for others, regardless of how those servicing
rights are acquired. An institution that acquires mortgage servicing rights
through either the purchase or origination of mortgage loans and sells those
loans with servicing rights retained must allocate some of the cost of the loans
to the mortgage servicing rights.
SFAS No. 140 requires that capitalized mortgage servicing rights and
capitalized excess servicing receivables be assessed for impairment. Impairment
is measured based on fair value. The mortgage servicing rights recorded by Oak
Hill, calculated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 140, were
segregated into pools for valuation purposes, using as pooling criteria the loan
term and coupon rate. Once pooled, each grouping of loans was evaluated on a
discounted earnings basis to determine the present value of future earnings that
a purchaser could expect to realize from each portfolio. Earnings were projected
from a variety of sources including loan servicing fees, interest earned on
float, net interest earned on escrows, miscellaneous income, and costs to
service the loans. The present value of future earnings is the "economic" value
of the pool, i.e., the net realizable present value to an acquirer of the
acquired servicing.
Oak Hill recorded amortization related to mortgage servicing rights
totaling approximately $602,000, $467,000 and $60,000 for the years ended
December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. At December 31, 2002 and 2001,
the carrying value of Oak Hill's mortgage servicing rights, which approximated
their fair value, totaled $1.8 million and $1.1 million, respectively.
4. LOAN ORIGINATION AND COMMITMENT FEES
The Company accounts for loan origination fees and costs in accordance
with SFAS No. 91, "Accounting for Nonrefundable Fees and Costs Associated with
Originating or Acquiring Loans and Initial Direct Costs of Leases." Pursuant to
the provisions of SFAS No. 91, all loan origination fees received, net of
certain direct origination costs, are deferred on a loan-by-loan basis and
amortized to interest income using the interest method, giving effect to actual
loan prepayments. Additionally, SFAS No. 91 generally limits the definition of
loan origination costs to the direct costs attributable to originating a loan,
i.e., principally actual personnel costs.
Fees received for loan commitments are deferred and amortized over the
life of the related loan using the interest method.

OAK HILL FINANCIAL, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
For the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000
5. ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
It is the Company's policy to provide valuation allowances for
estimated losses on loans based upon past loss experience, trends in the level
of delinquent and specific problem loans, adverse situations that may affect the
borrower's ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral
and current economic conditions in Oak Hill's primary market areas. When the
collection of a loan becomes doubtful, or otherwise troubled, the Company
records a loan loss provision equal to the difference between the fair value of
the property securing the loan and the loan's carrying value. Major loans and
major lending areas are reviewed periodically to determine potential problems at
an early date. The allowance for loan losses is increased by charges to earnings
and decreased by charge-offs (net of recoveries).
The Company accounts for impaired loans in accordance with SFAS No.
114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan." This Statement requires
that impaired loans be measured based upon the present value of expected future
cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate or, as an
alternative, at the loans' observable market price or fair value of the
collateral.
A loan is defined under SFAS No. 114 as impaired when, based on current
information and events, it is probable that a creditor will be unable to collect
all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. In
applying the provisions of SFAS No. 114, the Company considers its investment in
one-to-four family residential loans, consumer installment loans and credit card
loans to be homogeneous and therefore excluded from separate identification for
evaluation of impairment. With respect to the Company's investment in commercial
and other loans, and its evaluation of impairment thereof, such loans are
collateral dependent and as a result are carried as a practical expedient at the
lower of cost or fair value.
It is the Company's policy to charge off unsecured credits that are
more than ninety days delinquent. Similarly, collateral dependent loans which
are more than ninety days delinquent are considered to constitute more than a
minimum delay in repayment and are evaluated for impairment under SFAS No. 114
at that time.
At December 31, 2002 and 2001, the Company had no impaired loans as
defined under SFAS No. 114.
6. OFFICE PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT
Depreciation and amortization are provided on the straight-line and
accelerated methods over the estimated useful lives of the assets, estimated to
be ten to fifty years for buildings and improvements and three to twenty-five
years for furniture, fixtures and equipment.
7. REAL ESTATE ACQUIRED THROUGH FORECLOSURE
Real estate acquired through foreclosure is carried at the lower of the
loan's unpaid principal balance (cost) or fair value less estimated selling
expenses at the date of acquisition. The loan loss allowance is charged for any
write down in the loan's carrying value to fair value at the date of
acquisition. Real estate loss provisions are recorded if the properties' fair
value subsequently declines below the value determined at the recording date. In
determining the lower of cost or fair value at acquisition, costs relating to
development and improvement of property are considered. Costs relating to
holding real estate acquired through foreclosure, net of rental income, are
charged against earnings as incurred.
8. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
The Company accounts for federal income taxes pursuant to SFAS No. 109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes." Pursuant to the provisions of SFAS No. 109, a
deferred tax liability or deferred tax asset is computed by applying the current
statutory tax rates to net taxable or deductible temporary differences between
the tax basis of an asset or liability and its reported amount in the
consolidated financial statements that will result in taxable or deductible
amounts in future periods. Deferred tax assets are recorded only to the extent
that the amount of net deductible temporary differences or carryforward
attributes may be utilized against current period earnings, carried back against
prior years earnings, offset against taxable temporary differences reversing in
future periods, or utilized to the extent of management's estimate of future
taxable income. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets to the
extent that the value of net deductible temporary differences and carryforward
attributes exceeds management's estimates of taxes payable on future taxable
income. Deferred tax liabilities are provided on the total amount of net
temporary differences taxable in the future.
45
OAK HILL FINANCIAL, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
For the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000
The Company's principal temporary differences between pretax financial
income and taxable income result primarily from the different methods of
accounting for deferred loan origination fees and costs, Federal Home Loan Bank
stock dividends, capitalized mortgage servicing rights, certain components of
retirement expense and the allowance for loan losses. A temporary difference is
also recognized for depreciation expense computed using accelerated methods for
federal income tax purposes.
9. GOODWILL
For years prior to 2002, goodwill arising from an acquisition was
amortized to operations through 2001 using the straight-line method over a
fifteen-year period. It was management's policy to periodically evaluate the
carrying value of intangible assets in relation to the continuing earnings
capacity of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities.
In January 2002, MPA purchased McNelly Insurance Agency, a local
property and casualty insurance agency, for consideration of $100,000 in cash
and a $100,000 note payable. This purchase resulted in an increase in goodwill
of $197,000.
In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No.
142 "Goodwill and Intangible Assets," which prescribes accounting for all
purchased goodwill and intangible assets. Pursuant to SFAS No. 142, acquired
goodwill is not amortized, but is tested for impairment at the reporting unit
level annually and whenever an impairment indicator arises. Goodwill has been
assigned to Oak Hill and MPA as the reporting units that are expected to benefit
from the goodwill.
The Company evaluated the unamortized goodwill balance of $413,000
during 2002 in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142 via independent
third-party appraisal. The evaluation showed no indication of impairment. The
adoption of SFAS No. 142 has resulted in the elimination of annual goodwill
amortization of approximately $33,000.
10. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
SFAS No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments,"
requires disclosure of fair value of financial instruments, both assets and
liabilities whether or not recognized in the consolidated statement of financial
condition, for which it is practicable to estimate that value. For financial
instruments where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based
on estimates using present value and other valuation methods.
The methods used are greatly affected by the assumptions applied,
including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. Therefore, the
fair values presented may not represent amounts that could be realized in an
exchange for certain financial instruments. The following methods and
assumptions were used by the Company in estimating its fair value disclosures
for financial instruments at December 31, 2002 and 2001.
CASH AND DUE FROM BANKS. The carrying amounts presented in the
consolidated statements of financial condition for cash and due from banks are
deemed to approximate fair value.
FEDERAL FUNDS SOLD. The carrying amounts presented in the consolidated
statements of financial condition for federal funds sold are deemed to
approximate fair value.
INVESTMENT SECURITIES. For investment securities, fair value is deemed
to equal the quoted market price.
LOANS RECEIVABLE. The loan portfolio has been segregated into
categories with similar characteristics, such as one-to-four family residential
real estate, multi-family residential real estate, commercial, installment and
other. These loan categories were further delineated into fixed-rate and
adjustable-rate loans. The fair values for the resultant loan categories were
computed via discounted cash flow analysis, using current interest rates offered
for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. The
historical carrying amount of accrued interest on loans is deemed to approximate
fair value.
46
OAK HILL FINANCIAL, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
For the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000
FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK STOCK. The carrying amount presented in the
consolidated statements of financial condition is deemed to approximate fair
value.
DEPOSITS. The fair value of NOW accounts, savings accounts, demand
deposits, money market deposits and other transaction accounts is deemed to
approximate the amount payable on demand at December 31, 2002 and 2001. Fair
values for fixed-rate certificates of deposit have been estimated using a
discounted cash flow calculation using the interest rates currently offered for
deposits of similar remaining maturities.
ADVANCES FROM THE FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK. The fair value of advances
from the Federal Home Loan Bank has been estimated using discounted cash flow
analysis, based on the interest rates currently offered for advances of similar
remaining maturities.
SECURITIES SOLD UNDER AGREEMENT TO REPURCHASE. The carrying amounts of
securities sold under agreements to repurchase are deemed to approximate fair
value.
NOTES PAYABLE. The fair value of notes payable has been estimated using
discounted cash flow analysis, based on the interest rates currently offered for
notes of similar remaining maturities.
SUBORDINATED DEBENTURES. The fair value of the Corporation's
subordinated debentures has been estimated using discounted cash flow analysis,
based on the interest rates currently offered for instruments of similar
remaining maturities.
COMMITMENTS TO EXTEND CREDIT. For fixed-rate and adjustable-rate loan
commitments, the fair value estimate considers the difference between current
levels of interest rates and committed rates. The difference between the fair
value and notional amount of outstanding loan commitments at December 31, 2002
and 2001 was not material.
Based on the foregoing methods and assumptions, the carrying value and
fair value of the Company's financial instruments are as follows:

11. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per common share is computed based upon the
weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted
earnings per common share is computed including the dilutive effect of
additional potential common shares issuable under stock option. The computations
were as follows for the years ended December 31:

were outstanding at December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively, but were
excluded from the computation of common share equivalents because their exercise
prices were greater than the average market price of the common shares.
12. STOCK OPTION PLAN
The Company has a stock option plan that provides for grants of options
of up to 1,200,000 authorized, but unissued shares of its common stock. The
Company accounts for its stock option plan in accordance with SFAS No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," which contains a fair value-based
method for valuing stock-based compensation that entities may use, which
measures compensation cost at the grant date based on the fair value of the
award. Compensation is then recognized over the service period, which is usually
the vesting period. Alternatively, SFAS No. 123 permits entities to continue to
account for stock options and similar equity instruments under Accounting
Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees." Entities that continue to account for stock options using APB
Opinion No. 25 are required to make pro forma disclosures of net earnings and
earnings per share, as if the fair value-based method of accounting defined in
SFAS No. 123 had been applied.
The Company applies APB Opinion No. 25 and related Interpretations in
accounting for its stock option plan. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been
recognized for the plan. Had compensation cost for the Company's stock option
plan been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates for awards under
the plan consistent with the accounting method utilized in SFAS No. 123, the
Company's net earnings and earnings per share would have been reduced to the pro
forma amounts indicated below:

17. EFFECTS OF RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB")
issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived
Assets." SFAS No. 144 carries over the recognition and measurement provisions in
SFAS No. 121. Accordingly, an entity should recognize an impairment loss if the
carrying value of a long-lived asset or asset group (a) is not recoverable and
(b) exceeds its fair value. Similar to SFAS No. 121, SFAS No. 144 requires an
entity to test an asset or asset group for impairment whenever events or changes
in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable. SFAS
No. 144 differs from SFAS No. 121 in that it provides guidance on estimating
future cash flows to test recoverability. An entity may use either a
probability-weighted approach or best-estimate approach in developing estimates
of cash flow to test recoverability. SFAS No. 144 is effective for financial
statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 and interim
periods within those fiscal years. Management adopted SFAS No. 144 effective
January 1, 2002, as required, without material effect on the Company's financial
condition or results of operations.
In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs
Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities." SFAS No. 146 provides financial
accounting and reporting guidance for costs associated with exit or disposal
activities, including one-time termination benefits, contract termination costs
other than for a capital lease, and costs to consolidate facilities or relocate
employees. SFAS No. 146 is effective for exit or disposal activities initiated
after December 31, 2002.
The Company adopted SFAS No. 146 effective January 1, 2003, as
required, without material effect on the Company's financial condition or
results of operations.
In October 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 147, "Accounting for Certain
Financial Institutions: An Amendment of FASB Statements No. 72 and 144 and FASB
Interpretation No. 9," which removes acquisitions of financial institutions from
the scope of SFAS No. 72, "Accounting for Certain Acquisitions of Banking and
Thrift Institutions," except for transactions between mutual enterprises.
Accordingly, the excess of the fair value of liabilities assumed over the fair
value of tangible and intangible assets acquired in a business combination
should be recognized and accounted for as goodwill in accordance with SFAS No.
141, "Business Combinations," and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets."
SFAS No. 147 also requires that the acquisition of a less-than-whole
financial institution, such as a branch, be accounted for as a business
combination if the transferred assets and activities constitute a business.
Otherwise, the acquisition should be accounted for as the acquisition of net
assets.
SFAS No. 147 also amends the scope of SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets," to include long-term customer
relationship assets of financial institutions (including mutual enterprises)
such as depositor- and borrower-relationship intangible assets and credit
cardholder intangible assets.
The provisions of SFAS No. 147 related to unidentifiable intangible
assets and the acquisition of a less-than-whole financial institution are
effective for acquisitions for which the date of acquisition is on or after
October 1, 2002. The provisions related to impairment of long-term customer
relationship assets are effective October 1, 2002. Transition provisions for
previously recognized unidentifiable intangible assets are effective on October
1, 2002, with earlier application permitted. The Company adopted SFAS No. 147
effective October 1, 2002, as required, without material effect on the Company's
financial condition or results of operations.
In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure." SFAS No. 148 amends SFAS
No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," to provide alternative
methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of
accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, SFAS No. 148
amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent

The Company's lending efforts have historically focused on real estate
mortgages and consumer installment loans, which comprised approximately $317.8
million, or 45%, of the gross loan portfolio at December 31, 2002, and
approximately $436.2 million, or 67%, of the gross loan portfolio at December
31, 2001. In recent years, lending efforts have increasingly focused on
commercial loans, generally secured by commercial real estate and equipment,
which comprise approximately $391.6 million, or 55%, of the gross loan portfolio
at December 31, 2002, and approximately $216.6 million, or 33%, of the total
loan portfolio at December 31, 2001. Generally, such loans have been
underwritten with sufficient collateral or cash down payments to provide the
Company with adequate collateral coverage in the event of default. Nevertheless,
the Company, as with any lending institution, is subject to the risk that real
estate values or economic conditions could deteriorate in its primary lending
areas within Ohio, thereby impairing collateral values. However, management is
of the belief that real estate values and economic conditions in the Company's
primary lending areas are presently stable.

In the normal course of business, the Company has made loans to its
directors, officers, and their related business interests. In the opinion of
management, such loans are consistent with sound banking practices and are
within applicable regulatory lending limitations. The balance of such loans
outstanding at December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 totaled approximately $5.0
million, $1.1 million and $1.9 million, respectively.
The Company had also received demand and time deposits of approximately
$12.4 million, $10.1 million and $14.9 million at December 31, 2002, 2001 and

NOTE K -- EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
The Company has a profit-sharing and 401(k) plan covering all employees
who have attained the age of twenty-one and completed three months of continuous
service. The profit-sharing plan is non-contributory and contributions to the
plan are made at the discretion of the Board of Directors. The Company
contributed $250,000, $300,000 and $150,000 to the plan for the years ended
December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
The 401(k) plan allows employees to make voluntary, tax-deferred
contributions up to 15% of their base annual compensation. The Company provides,
at its discretion, a 50% matching of funds for each participant's contribution,
subject to a maximum of 6% of base compensation. The Company's matching
contributions under the 401(k) plan totaled $260,000, $166,000 and $127,000 for
the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
NOTE L -- COMMITMENTS
The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet
risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its
customers, including commitments to extend credit. Such commitments involve, to
varying degrees, elements of credit and interest-rate risk in excess of the
amount recognized in the statement of financial condition. The contract or
notional amounts of the commitments reflect the extent of the Company's
involvement in such financial instruments.
The Company's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by
the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit is
represented by the contractual notional amount of those instruments. The Company
uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations
as those utilized for on-balance-sheet instruments.
At December 31, 2002, the Company had outstanding commitments of
approximately $25.1 million to originate residential and commercial loans. Also,
the Company had unused lines of credit and letters of credit totaling
approximately $90.8 million and $563,000, respectively, as of December 31, 2002.
In the opinion of management, outstanding loan commitments equaled or exceeded
prevalent market interest rates as of December 31, 2002, such commitments were
underwritten in accordance with normal loan underwriting policies, and all
disbursements will be funded via normal cash flow from operations and existing
excess liquidity.
The Company has also entered into lease agreements for office premises
and equipment under operating leases which expire at various dates through 2009.
The following table summarizes minimum payments due under lease agreements by

OAK HILL FINANCIAL, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
For the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000
NOTE M -- REGULATORY CAPITAL
Oak Hill is subject to the regulatory capital requirements of the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC"). Failure to meet minimum
capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory -- and possibly additional
discretionary -- actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct
material effect on Oak Hill's financial statements. Under capital adequacy
guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, Oak Hill
must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of Oak
Hill's assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated
under regulatory accounting practices. Oak Hill's capital accounts and
classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators
about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Prior to the November 30,
2002 Oak Hill-Towne merger, all of the regulatory requirements described herein
also applied to Towne.
The FDIC has adopted risk-based capital guidelines to which Oak Hill is
subject. The guidelines establish a systematic analytical framework that makes
regulatory capital requirements more sensitive to differences in risk profiles
among banking organizations. Risk-based capital ratios are determined by
allocating assets and specified off-balance-sheet commitments to four
risk-weighting categories, with higher levels of capital being required for the
categories perceived as representing greater risk.
These guidelines divide the capital into two tiers. The first tier
("Tier 1") includes common equity, certain non-cumulative perpetual preferred
stock (excluding auction rate issues) and minority interests in equity accounts
of consolidated subsidiaries, less goodwill and certain other intangible assets
(except mortgage servicing rights and purchased credit card relationships,
subject to certain limitations). Supplementary ("Tier 2") capital includes,
among other items, cumulative perpetual and long-term limited-life preferred
stock, mandatory convertible securities, certain hybrid capital instruments,
term subordinated debt, and the allowance for loan losses, subject to certain
limitations, less required deductions. Banks are required to maintain a total
risk-based capital (the sum of Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital) ratio of 8%, of which
4% must be Tier 1 capital. The FDIC may, however, set higher capital
requirements when particular circumstances warrant. Banks experiencing or
anticipating significant growth are expected to maintain capital ratios,
including tangible capital positions, well above minimum required levels.
During the year ended December 31, 2002, Oak Hill was notified by its
primary federal regulator that it was categorized as "well-capitalized" under
the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as
"well-capitalized" Oak Hill must maintain minimum Tier 1 capital, total
risk-based capital, and Tier 1 leverage ratios of 6%, 10%, and 5%, respectively.
At December 31, 2002, Oak Hill was well-capitalized.
As of December 31, 2002 and 2001, management believes that Oak Hill has
met all of the capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject. Oak Hill's
Tier 1 capital, total risk-based capital, and Tier 1 leverage ratios at December
31, 2002 and 2001 and Towne's at December 31, 2001 are set forth in the
following tables.

The Company's management believes that under the current regulatory
capital regulations Oak Hill will continue to meet it's minimum capital
requirements in the foreseeable future. However, events beyond the control of
the Company, such as increased interest rates or a downturn in the economy in
Oak Hill's primary market areas, could adversely affect future earnings and
consequently, the ability to meet future minimum regulatory capital
requirements.

responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Oak
Hill Financial, Inc. as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the consolidated
results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three
