PEOPLE'S SAVINGS FINANCIAL CORP. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS March 31, 1996 Note A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three month period ended March 31, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 1996 For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995. Certain 1995 amounts have been reclassified to conform with the 1996 presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on net income. Note B - CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES On January 1, 1996, the Corporation adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of. The adoption of this accounting standard had no impact on the Corporation's financial condition or results of operations because, in the opinion of management, it did not hold any long- lived assets that were impaired. On January 1, 1996, the Corporation adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 122 "Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights - an amendment of FASB Statement No. 65." The adoption of this accounting standard had an immaterial impact on the Corporation's financial condition and results of operations because it only originated for sale $1.03 million of loans during the quarter ended March 31, 1996 resulting in capitalized originated loan servicing rights of approximately $10,000.

The adequacy of the allowance is determined by management's evaluation of known and inherent risks in the loan portfolio and prevailing economic conditions and the Bank's loss experience. The allowance is increased by provisions for loan losses charged against income. Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. General This section presents management's discussion and analysis of the consolidated results of operations for People's Savings Financial Corp. (the "Corporation") and The People's Savings Bank of New Britain (the "Bank") for the three month period ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, and its financial condition as of March 31, 1996. In order to understand this section in context, it should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto. Financial Condition At March 31, 1996 total assets were $406.28 million, a decrease of $3.89 million (or .9%) from total assets of $410.16 million at December 31, 1995. Changes in assets consisted of a decrease in investment securities and cash and cash equivalents partially offset by an increase in net loans. Total deposits increased by $2.82 million (or .8%) from December 31, 1995, and borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank totaling $4.32 million were repaid. The increase in total deposits was primarily due to growth in the Bank's newer branches. During the quarter 46,000 shares of treasury stock were purchased at a cost of $.94 million. The Corporation had unrealized losses on securities available for sale, net of taxes, of $.22 million at March 31, 1996, a decrease of $.41 million from a gain of $.19 million at December 31, 1995, primarily due to the rise in interest rates at the end of the first quarter. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Net income for the three month period ended March 31, 1996 was $888,000 as compared to $836,000 for the comparable period in 1995. The increase in income for the three month period was primarily due to a slight increase in net interest income, increased trust fees, a large decrease in FDIC deposit insurance premiums, a reduction in other real estate expenses, and a lower effective tax rate. These increases were partially offset by unrealized losses on loans held for sale, a decrease in trading account gains, and an increase in salaries and benefits. These increases in salaries and benefit expenses relate to our recent expansion efforts. AVERAGE BALANCES, INTEREST, YIELDS AND RATES The following table presents condensed daily average statements of condition, which include non-accrual loans, the components of net interest income and selected statistical data. Three months ended March 31, (dollars in thousands) Annualized Variance Average Balance Average rate Interest Inc. due to 1996 1995 1996 1995 1996 1995 (dec) Vol. Rate Loans $240,688 $230,054 7.95% 7.57% $4,781 $4,351 $430 $206 $224 Investment secur- ities(a) 148,086 152,902 6.29% 5.66% 2,278 2,154 124 (65) 189 Total(a) 388,774 382,956 7.31% 6.81% 7,059 6,505 554 141 413 Other assets 15,492 15,317 Total assets $404,266 $398,273 Deposits $335,492 $319,954 4.24% 3.60% 3,557 2,880 677 145 532 Borrowings 14,672 29,140 5.86% 5.70% 215 415 (200) (212) 12 Total 350,164 349,094 4.31% 3.78% 3,772 3,295 477 (67) 544 Demand deposits 5,174 4,498 Other liabilities 4,076 3,181 Stockholders' equity 44,852 41,500 Total liabilities and stock- holders' equity $404,266 $398,273 Net interest income $3,287 $3,210 $77 $208 ($131) Net interest rate spread(a) 3.00% 3.03% Net interest rate margin(a) 3.38% 3.35% (a) tax adjusted yield The average balances, interest, yields and rates table shows that for the three month period ended March 31, 1996 compared to the same period in 1995 there was an increase in interest income caused primarily by increased volume of loans and yield on loans, and yield on investments offset by lower investment balances. The comparison of interest expense for the three month period ended March 31, 1996 compared to the same period in 1995 shows that interest expense increased primarily due to increased rates on deposits, and to a lesser extent increased volume of deposits, partially offset by a decrease in the volume of borrowings. This activity is consistent with the changes in the Corporation's balance sheet and continued increases in short-term interest rates during the quarter. Net interest rate spreads decreased slightly during the three month period ended March 31, 1996 when compared to the same period last year, because the Bank's yield on earning assets increased less than the rate the Bank paid on its interest bearing liabilities. The increase in the yield on earning assets was due to increased yield on loans and investments. The rate the Bank pays on its interest bearing liabilities increased primarily due to higher interest rates on the Bank's deposits, which includes a shift in deposits to higher interest rate certificate of deposits from lower interest rate deposit accounts. The net interest rate margin increased slightly for the three month period ended March 31, 1996 when compared to the same period of 1995, primarily due to interest income increasing by a larger percentage than the increase in average interest earning assets, partially offset by the reasons mentioned above. Net interest income for the three month period ended March 31, 1996 increased primarily due to the increase in the net interest rate margin. CAPITAL The Corporation's and the Bank's Tier 1 leverage capital ratios at March 31, 1996 were 10.19% and 9.52% respectively. The Corporation's and the Bank's total risk-based capital ratios at March 31, 1996 were 19.39% and 18.17% respectively. The Corporation's and the Bank's Tier 1 risk-based capital ratios at March 31, 1996 were 18.67% and 17.45%, respectively. All of the Corporation's and the Bank's ratios as of March 31, 1996 were well above applicable minimums. As of March 31, 1996, the Corporation and the Bank fall within the highest capital category of "well capitalized" under the rules of the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. OTHER INCOME, OTHER EXPENSE, AND TAXES The following table details the significant increases and decreases in other income for the three month period ended March 31. Three Months ended Other income March 31, (dollars in thousands) 1996 1995 Inc(dec) % Service charges and fees $260 $253 $ 7 2.8% Trust fees 318 259 59 22.8 Net investment securities gains (losses) (20) 4 (24) (600.0) Trading account gains (losses) - 49 (49) (100.0) Unrealized losses on loan held for sale (69) - (69) N/M Other operating income 77 32 45 140.6 Total other income $566 $ 597 $ (31) (5.2)% Other income for the three month period ended March 31, 1996 decreased by $31,000 as compared to the same period in 1995. The decrease was primarily due to unrealized losses on loans held for sale, investment securities losses and a decrease in trading account gains. The unrealized losses on loans held for sale was due to the rise in interest rates during the quarter which decreased the market value of these loans. These decreases were partially offset by increased trust fees and other operating income. Trust assets under management at March 31, 1996 totaled $336,000,000.00 compared to $229,000,000.00 at March 31, 1995, an increase of 46.7%. During the first quarter of 1995 the Bank's trading account was liquidated. The following table details the significant increases and decreases in other expenses for the three month period ended March 31. Three Months ended Other expenses March 31, (dollars in thousands) 1996 1995 Inc(dec) % Salaries and benefits $1,249 $1,038 $211 20.3% Occupancy 268 248 20 8.1 Furniture and equipment 221 224 (3) (1.3) FDIC deposit insurance 1 182 (181) (99.5) Other real estate expenses (1) 53 (54) (101.9) Other operating expenses 630 613 17 2.8 Total other expenses $2,368 $2,358 $ 10 0.4% Non-interest expense increased slightly for the three month period ended March 31, 1996, from the comparable period of 1995. The increase was primarily due to increased salaries and benefit expenses, caused primarily by the continued growth of our trust department and our new commercial loan department. This increase was partially offset by a reduction in FDIC deposit insurance premiums. The Bank paid a rate of $.23 per year for every $100 during the first quarter ended March 31, 1995, compared to a rate of $.00 per year for every $100 in deposits during the first quarter of 1996. The Bank will continue to pay a rate of $.00 plus a flat $500.00 fee per quarter until such time that the FDIC changes the rate. Other real estate expenses decreased when compared to 1995 due to gains on sales of foreclosed real estate record during the first quarter of 1996 and a reduced number of foreclosed properties. The effective tax rate for the three month period ended March 31, 1996 decreased to 37.5% from 40.8% for the same period in 1995. The decrease was primarily due to an increase in dividend income which qualifies for the Federal dividend received deduction and a decrease in the State of Connecticut tax rate to 10.75% from 11.25% PEOPLE'S SAVINGS FINANCIAL CORP.
