AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) NOTE 1 - Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation ----------------------------------------------------- The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Skibo Financial Corp., its wholly- owned subsidiary First Carnegie Deposit (the "Bank"), and the Bank's wholly owned subsidiary, Fedcar, Inc. Fedcar, Inc. is a service corporation that is currently inactive. These statements have been prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-QSB. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. However, such information presented reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of the Company's management, necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim period. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The results of operations for the three months and nine months ended December 31, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending March 31, 2004 or any other period. The unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended March 31, 2003. NOTE 2 - Comprehensive Income -------------------- For the three months ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, the Company had total comprehensive loss of $215,000 and total comprehensive income of $18,000, respectively. For the nine months ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, the Company's total comprehensive income was $89,000 and $231,000, respectively. Total comprehensive (loss) income is comprised of net (loss) income and other comprehensive income. For both three and nine month periods ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, there was no other comprehensive income. NOTE 3 - Earnings Per Share (EPS) ------------------------ Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income applicable to common stock by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, without considering any dilutive items. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income applicable to common stock by the weighted average number of common shares and common stock equivalents for items that are dilutive, net of shares assumed to be repurchased using the treasury stock method at the average share price for the Company's common stock during the period. Common stock equivalents arise from the assumed conversion of outstanding stock options. 5 SKIBO FINANCIAL CORP.

The objective of the asset and liability method is to establish deferred tax assets and liabilities for temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of the Company's assets and liabilities based on enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when such amounts are realized and settled 6 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS General The Company's results of operations are primarily dependent upon net interest income, which is the difference between the interest income earned on interest-earning assets, primarily loans, mortgage-backed securities, and investments, and the interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities, primarily deposits and borrowings. Net interest income may be affected significantly by general economic and competitive conditions and policies of regulatory agencies, particularly those with respect to market interest rates. The results of operations are also significantly influenced by the level of noninterest expenses, such as employee salaries and benefits, noninterest income, such as loan-related fees and fees on deposit-related services, and the Company's provision for loan losses. The Management Discussion and Analysis section of this Form 10-QSB contains certain forward-looking statements (as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995). These forward-looking statements may involve risks and uncertainties. Although management believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, actual results may differ from the results in these forward-looking statements. Changes in Financial Condition The Company's total assets of $155,691,000 at December 31, 2003, are reflective of a decrease of $1,568,000 or 1.0%, as compared to $157,259,000 at March 31, 2003. The decrease in total assets was primarily due to decreases in loans receivable, cash and interest-bearing deposits with other institutions, FHLB stock, premises and equipment and accrued interest receivable, partially offset by increases in mortgage-backed securities, investment securities and prepaid expenses and other assets. The decrease in the Company's liabilities was due to decreases in savings deposits, accrued expenses and other liabilities and advances from borrowers for taxes and insurance. Changes in the components of assets, liabilities and equity are discussed herein. Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents, which consist of interest-bearing and noninterest-bearing deposits, totaled $1,189,000, a decrease of $3.4 million or 74.3% as compared to $4,628,000 at March 31, 2003. This decrease was due to decreased interest-bearing deposits maintained at the Federal Home Loan Bank and non-interest bearing deposits maintained at the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland and a local bank, partially offset by an increase in cash on hand. Investment Securities. Investment securities totaled $14,991,000 at December 31, 2003, an increase of $6,635,000 or 79.4%, as compared to $8,356,000 at March 31, 2003. This was primarily a result of purchases of $11.1 million of U.S. Agency securities, offset by proceeds from maturities, calls and repayments totaling $4.4 million. Mortgage-backed Securities. Mortgage-backed securities totaled $95,831,000 at December 31, 2003, an increase of $526,000 or 0.6%, as compared to $95,305,000 at March 31, 2003. The increase was primarily due to purchases of $30.2 million, partially offset by principal repayments and maturities totaling $29.6 million. Loans Receivable, net. Net loans receivable at December 31, 2003 totaled $34,206,000, a decrease of $5,466,000 or 13.8%, as compared to $39,672,000 at March 31, 2003. The decrease was primarily due to principal repayments totaling $13.5 million, offset by originations of $151,000, which consisted entirely of consumer loans, and purchases of $7.9 million. The Company purchased $1.1 million conventional one -to four-family mortgage loans and $160,000 insured Federal Housing Administration ("FHA") one- to four-family mortgage loans within its normal lending area. The Company also purchased $5.1million United States Department of Agriculture ("USDA") mortgage loans and $27,000 Government National Mortgage Association ("GNMA") multi-family project loans, $1.2 million insured Small Business Administration ("SBA") loans, and a $202,000 USDA insured operating loan, primarily outside its normal lending area. Deposits. Total deposits decreased by $1.0 million or 1.3% to $80,811,000 at December 31, 2003, as compared to $81,842,000 at March 31, 2003. The decrease was due to decreases in certificates of deposit, interest-bearing checking accounts and Money Market accounts, offset by increases in passbooks and noninterest-bearing checking accounts. FHLB Advances. FHLB advances totaled $48,000,000 at both December 31, 2003 and March 31, 2003. The Company uses FHLB advances as a supplement to deposits to fund its purchase of loans and investments. 7 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION Stockholders' Equity. Stockholders' equity totaled $23,252,000 at December 31, 2003, as compared to $23,477,000 at March 31, 2003. The decrease of $225,000 or 1.0% was primarily due to the payment of a $0.12 regular cash dividend and a $0.13 special cash dividend, partially offset by earnings for the nine months ended December 31, 2003. Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended December 31, 2003 and 2002 Net (Loss) Income. The Company recorded net loss of $215,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2003, as compared to net income of $18,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2002. The $233,000 or 1294.4% decrease in net income for the three months ended December 31, 2003 was the result of decreases in net interest income and other income and an increase in other expenses, partially offset by a decrease in provision for income tax. Changes in the components of income and expense are discussed herein. Net Interest Income. Net interest income decreased $252,000 or 39.3% for the three months ended December 31, 2003, as compared to the three month period ended December 31, 2002. This decrease was primarily the result of a $488,000 or 0.3% decrease in the average balance of interest-earning assets and a 110 basis point decrease in the average yield earned thereon. The average balance of interest-bearing liabilities decreased $86,000 or 0.1% and the average rate paid thereon decreased 51 basis points. The net interest rate spread, which is the difference between the yield on average interest-earning assets and the cost of average interest-bearing liabilities, decreased to 0.51% for the three month period ended December 31, 2003 from 1.10% for the three month period ended December 31, 2002. The decrease in the net interest rate spread was primarily the result of decreased yields on the average balances of interest earning assets, partially offset by decreased rates paid on the average balance of savings deposits. Interest Income. Interest income decreased $414,000 or 21.0% to $1,558,000 for the three month period ended December 31, 2003, as compared to $1,972,000 for the three month period ended December 31, 2002. Interest on loans receivable decreased $226,000 or 33.1% for the three months ended December 31, 2003, as compared to the three month period ended December 31, 2002. This decrease was primarily the result of a $7.2 million decrease in the average balance of loans receivable and a 124 basis point decrease in the average yield earned thereon. Interest income on mortgage-backed securities decreased $183,000 or 16.4% for the three months ended December 31, 2003, as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2002. This decrease was primarily the result of a 111 basis point decrease in the average yield earned on mortgage-backed securities, partially offset by a $6.6 million increase in the average balance of mortgage-backed securities. Interest income on investment securities increased $18,000 or 13.3% for the three months ended December 31, 2003, as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2002. The increase in interest income on investment securities was primarily due to a $2.7 million increase in the average balance of such securities, partially offset by a 48 basis point decrease in the average yield earned thereon. Interest income on other interest-earning assets decreased $23,000 or 63.9% for the three months ended December 31, 2003, as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2002. The decrease was primarily due to a $2.6 million decrease in the average balance of other interest-earning assets and an 86 basis point decrease in the average yield earned thereon. The average yield on the average balance of interest-earning assets was 4.19% and 5.29 % for the three month periods ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Interest Expense. Interest expense totaled $1,168,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2003, as compared to $1,330,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2002. The $162,000 or 12.2% decrease was due to an $86,000 decrease in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities and a 51 basis point decrease in the average rate paid thereon. Interest expense on deposits (including escrows) decreased $162,000 or 24.5% for the three months ended December 31, 2003, as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2002. The decrease was due to an $86,000 decrease in the average balance of deposits and an 82 basis point decrease in the average rate paid thereon. 8 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION Interest on FHLB advances totaled $670,000 for both three month periods ended December 31, 2003 and 2002. The Company uses FHLB advances as a funding source to supplement deposits, which are the Company's primary source of funds. Allowance for Loan Losses. Based upon management's evaluation of the underlying credit risk of the loan portfolio and the level of allowance for loan losses, the Company established no provisions for loan losses during the three month periods ended December 31, 2003 and 2002. At December 31, 2003, the allowance for loan losses totaled $405,000 or 1.2% and 91.2% of total loans and total non- performing loans, respectively, as compared to $425,000 or 1.1% and 904.3%, respectively, at March 31, 2003. The Company's non-performing loans (non-accrual loans and accruing loans 90 days or more overdue) totaled $444,000 and $47,000 at December 31, 2003 and March 31, 2003, respectively, which represented 1.28% and 0.12% of the Company's total loans, respectively. The Company's ratio of non-performing loans to total assets was ..29% and .03% at December 31, 2003 and March 31, 2003, respectively. Other Income. During the three months ended December 31, 2003, other income decreased $14,000 or 26.9%, as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2002. Other Expenses. Total other expenses increased by $96,000 or 14.6% during the three months ended December 31, 2003, as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2002. The increase was attributable to increases of $175,000 in other operating expenses, primarily due to increased legal fees and professional services expense, and $1,000 in premises and equipment, offset by an $80,000 decrease in compensation and employee benefits expense. Income Tax Expense. The income tax benefit totaled $112,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2003, as compared to the provision for income tax of $17,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2002. The decrease of $129,000 or 758.8% was due to decreased income. Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended December 31, 2003 and 2002 Net Income. The Company recorded net income of $89,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2003, as compared to net income of $231,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2002. The $142,000 or 61.5% decrease in net income for the nine months ended December 31, 2003 was primarily the result of decreases in net interest income and increases in other expenses, offset by an increase in other income and a decrease in provision for income taxes. Changes in the components of income and expense are discussed herein. Net Interest Income. Net interest income decreased $795,000 or 36.5% for the nine months ended December 31, 2003, as compared to the nine month period ended December 31, 2002. Although the average balance of interest-earning assets increased $801,000 or 0.5%, the average yield earned thereon decreased 116 basis points. The average balance of interest- bearing liabilities increased by $1.4 million or 1.1%, however, the average rate paid thereon decreased 54 basis points. The net interest rate spread decreased to 0.69% for the three month period ended December 31, 2003 from 1.31% for the three month period ended December 31, 2002. The decrease in the net interest rate spread was primarily the result of decreased yields on the average balances of interest earning assets, partially offset by decreased rates paid on the average balance of savings deposits. Interest Income. Interest income decreased $1.3 million or 20.2% to $4,990,000 for the nine month period ended December 31, 2003, as compared to $6,254,000 for the nine month period ended December 31, 2002. Interest on loans receivable decreased $666,000 or 29.8% for the nine months ended December 31, 2003, as compared to the nine month period ended December 31, 2002. This decrease was primarily the result of a $7.5 million decrease in the average balance of loans receivable and a 105 basis point decrease in the average yield earned thereon. Interest income on mortgage-backed securities decreased $374,000 or 11.2% for the nine months ended December 31, 2003, as compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2002. This decrease was primarily the result of a 111 basis point decrease in the average yield earned on mortgage-backed securities, partially offset by a $10.7 million increase in the average balance of mortgage-backed securities. 9 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION Interest income on investment securities decreased $184,000 or 32.1% for the nine months ended December 31, 2003, as compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2002. The decrease in interest income on investment securities was primarily due to a $2.4 million decrease in the average balance of such securities and a 98 basis point decrease in the average yield earned thereon. Interest income on other interest-earning assets decreased $40,000 or 39.2% for the nine months ended December 31, 2003, as compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2002. The decrease was primarily due to a 92 basis point decrease in the average yield earned on other interest-earning assets, partially offset by an $11,000 increase in the average balance. The average yield on the average balance of interest-earning assets was 4.45% and 5.61% for the nine month periods ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Interest Expense. Interest expense totaled $3,606,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2003, as compared to $4,075,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2002. Although the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities increased $1.4 million, the average rate paid thereon decreased 54 basis points, resulting in a $469,000 or 11.5% decrease in interest expense. Interest expense on deposits (including escrows) decreased $469,000 or 22.6% for the nine months ended December 31, 2003, as compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2002. Although the average balance of deposits increased $1.4 million, the average rate paid thereon decreased 85 basis points. Interest on FHLB advances totaled $2.0 million for both nine month periods ended December 31, 2003 and 2002. Provision for Loan Losses. Based upon management's evaluation of the underlying credit risk of the loan portfolio and the level of allowance for loan losses, the Company established no provision for loan losses during the nine month periods ended December 31, 2003 and 2002. Other Income. During the nine months ended December 31, 2003, other income increased $445,000 or 300.7%, as compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2002. In September 2003, the Company received a taxable cash distribution of approximately $454,000 from the parent of General American Life Insurance Company ("GALIC"), which was sold to Metropolitan Life Insurance Company in 2000. The Company owns various insurance policies with GALIC. This distribution was based on the Company's ownership interest in the life insurance policies. It is possible that additional distributions could be made in the future, but are not able to be estimated at this time. This cash distribution was the primary cause for the increase in other income. The increase was also partially attributable to increases in the cash surrender values of insurance policies held on the participants of the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan ("SERP"). Other Expenses. Total other expenses increased by $67,000 or 3.4% during the nine months ended December 31, 2003, as compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2002. The increase was attributable to an increase of $223,000 in other operating expenses, offset by decreases of $153,000 in compensation and employees benefit expense, and $3,000 in premises and occupancy costs. The increase in other operating expenses was primarily due to an increase in legal fees and professional services expense. The decrease in compensation and employee benefits expense was due to decreases of $133,000 in compensation and employee benefits expense, $16,000 in the Company's defined benefit plan and SERP costs and $4,000 in RSP expense due to the completion of the ESP awards on April 16, 2002. Income Tax Expense. The income tax benefit totaled $157,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2003, as compared to the provision for income tax of $118,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2002. The $275,000 or 233.1% decrease was due to an adjustment made to the tax accrual to reflect actual taxes paid and decreased income. 10 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION Regulatory Capital Requirements The Bank is subject to federal regulations that impose certain minimum capital requirements. Quantitative measures, established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy, require the Bank to maintain amounts and ratios of tangible and core capital to adjusted total assets and of total risk-basked capital to risk-weighted assets. On December 31, 2003, the Bank was in compliance with its three regulatory capital requirements as follows: Amount Percent ------ ------- (Dollars in thousands) Tangible capital..................................... $23,138 14.85% Tangible capital requirement......................... 2,337 1.50 ------- ----- Excess over requirement.............................. $20,801 13.35% ======= ===== Core capital......................................... $23,138 14.85% Core capital requirement............................. 4,674 3.00 ------- ----- Excess over requirement.............................. $18,464 11.85% ======= ===== Risk based capital................................... $23,543 64.62% Risk based capital requirement....................... 2,931 8.00 ------- ----- Excess over requirement.............................. $20,612 56.62% ======= ===== Management believes that under current regulations, the Bank will continue to meet its minimum capital requirements in the foreseeable future. Events beyond the control of the Bank, such as increased interest rates or a downturn in the economy in areas in which the Bank operates could adversely affect future earnings and as a result, the ability of the Bank to meet its future minimum capital requirements.
