("Bancorp" or the "Registrant") is a Pennsylvania business corporation, incorporated on October 7, 1986. On March 2, 1987, Bancorp became a bank holding company, pursuant to the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. PEOPLESBANK, A Codorus Valley Company ("PEOPLESBANK" or the "Bank") is its wholly-owned banking subsidiary and SYC Realty Co., Inc. is its wholly-owned nonbank subsidiary. Since commencing operations, Bancorp's business has consisted primarily of managing and supervising the Bank, and its principal source of income has been dividends paid by the Bank. At December 31, 1997, Bancorp had total consolidated assets of $255 million, total deposits and other liabilities of $230.6 million, and total stockholders' equity of $24.4 million. Bank Subsidiary PEOPLESBANK, formerly Peoples Bank of Glen Rock until February 1997, organized in 1934, is a Pennsylvania chartered bank and is not a member of the Federal Reserve System. PEOPLESBANK offers a full range of commercial and consumer banking services through eight full service banking office locations in York County, Pennsylvania. PEOPLESBANK also offers trust and investment services at Codorus Valley Corporate Center located in York, Pennsylvania. The deposits of PEOPLESBANK are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") to the extent provided by law. At December 31, 1997, PEOPLESBANK had total loans of $191.3 million and total deposits of $226.3 million. The Bank is not dependent for deposits nor exposed by loan concentration to a single customer or to a small group of customers. Accordingly, losses from a single customer, or small customer group, would not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of the Bank. At fiscal year end 1997, approximately 19% of total loans were concentrated in the commercial facility leasing industry and approximately 11% of total loans were concentrated in the real estate development industry, compared to 15% and 9%, respectively, at year end 1996. Nonbank Subsidiary On June 20, 1991, SYC Realty Company, Inc. ("SYC Realty") was incorporated as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Registrant. This nonbank subsidiary was created primarily for the purpose of disposing of selected properties obtained from the Bank in satisfaction of debts previously contracted. SYC Realty commenced business operations in October, 1995. To date, the financial impact of this subsidiary's operations on the Registrant and the Bank has been immaterial. 3 Competition The banking industry in PEOPLESBANK's service area, principally York County, Pennsylvania, is extremely competitive. The Bank competes with commercial banks and other financial service providers such as thrifts, credit unions, consumer finance companies, investment firms, and mortgage companies. Some of the financial services providers operating in PEOPLESBANK's service area operate on a regional scale and possess resources greater than those of PEOPLESBANK. Supervision and Regulation Codorus Valley Bancorp, Inc. is registered as a bank holding company and is subject to the regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve") under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended ("BHCA"). Bank holding companies are required to file periodic reports with and are subject to examination by the Federal Reserve. The Federal Reserve issued regulations under the BHCA that require a bank holding company to serve as a source of financial and managerial strength to its subsidiary banks. As a result, the Federal Reserve, pursuant to such regulations, may require the Corporation to stand ready to use its resources to provide adequate capital funds to the Bank during periods of financial stress or adversity. Under the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 ("FDICIA"), a bank holding company is required to guarantee the compliance of any insured depository institution subsidiary that may become "undercapitalized" (as defined by regulations) with the terms of any capital restoration plan filed by such subsidiary with its appropriate federal banking agency, up to specified limits. Under the BHCA, the Federal Reserve has the authority to require a bank holding company to terminate any activity or relinquish control of a nonbank subsidiary (other than a nonbank subsidiary of a bank) upon the Federal Reserve's determination that such activity or control constitutes a serious risk to the financial soundness and stability of any banking subsidiary of the bank holding company. The BHCA prohibits the Corporation from acquiring direct or indirect control of more than 5% of the outstanding shares of any class of voting stock or substantially all of the assets of any bank or merging or consolidating with another bank holding company without prior approval of the Federal Reserve. Such a transaction would also require approval of the Pennsylvania Department of Banking. Pennsylvania law permits Pennsylvania bank holding companies to control an unlimited number of banks. Additionally, the BHCA prohibits the Corporation from engaging in or from acquiring ownership or control of more than 5% of the outstanding shares of any class of voting stock of any company engaged in a nonbanking business unless such business is determined by the Federal Reserve to be so closely related to banking as to be a proper incident thereto. The Federal Reserve can differentiate between nonbanking activities that are initiated by a bank 4 holding company or subsidiary and activities that are acquired as a going concern. The BHCA does not place territorial restrictions on the activities of such nonbanking-related activities. The Corporation and its subsidiaries are prohibited from engaging in certain tie-in arrangements in connection with any extension of credit, lease or sale of property, or furnishing of services. Bancorp is restricted to activities that are found by the Federal Reserve to be closely related to banking, and which are expected to produce benefits for the public that will outweigh any potentially adverse effects. The operations of the Bank are subject to federal and state statutes applicable to banks chartered under the banking laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and whose deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"). The FDIC has primary supervisory authority over the Bank, regularly examines banks in such areas as reserves, loans, investments, management practices, and other aspects of operations. These examinations are designed for the protection of the Bank's depositors rather than the Corporation's shareholders. The Bank must furnish annual and quarterly reports to the FDIC. Federal and state banking laws and regulations govern, among other things, the scope of a bank's business, the investments a bank may take, the reserves against deposits a bank must maintain, the types and terms of loans a bank may make and the collateral it may take, the activities of a bank with respect to mergers and consolidations, and the establishment of branches. Pennsylvania law permits statewide branching. A subsidiary bank of a bank holding company, such as the Bank, is subject to certain restrictions imposed by the Federal Reserve Act on any extensions of credit to the bank holding company or its subsidiaries, on investments in the stock or other securities of the bank holding company or its subsidiaries, and on taking such stock or securities as collateral for loans. The Federal Reserve Act and Federal Reserve regulations also place certain limitations and reporting requirements on extensions of credit by a bank to the principal shareholders of its parent holding company, among others, and to related interests of such principal shareholders. In addition, such legislation and regulations may affect the terms upon which any person becoming a principal shareholder of a holding company may obtain credit from banks with which the subsidiary bank maintains a correspondent relationship. The Bank, and the banking industry in general, are affected by the monetary and fiscal policies of government agencies, including the Federal Reserve. Through open market securities transactions and changes in its discount rate and reserve requirements, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve exerts considerable influence over the cost and availability of funds for lending and investment. Recently, Pennsylvania enacted a law to permit State chartered financial institutions to sell insurance. This follows a United States Supreme Court 5 decision in favor of nationwide insurance sales by banks and which also bars states from blocking insurance sales by national banks in towns with populations of no more than 5,000. Consequently, banks are allowed to sell insurance in Pennsylvania. The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency has issued guidelines for national banks to sell insurance. The Bank is evaluating its options regarding the sale of insurance. A brief discussion of the most recent federal banking agency pronouncements that affect the Corporation and/or Bank is provided below. Congress is currently considering legislative reform centered on repeal of the Glass-Steagall Act which prohibits commercial banks from engaging in the securities industry. The holding company structure, under such a proposal, would be regulated by the Federal Reserve Board, and its subsidiaries would be supervised by the applicable regulator based on their respective functions. In December 1997, the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council ("FFIEC") issued an interagency statement. The statement indicates that senior management and the board of directors should be actively involved in managing the Corporation's and the Bank's Year 2000 compliance efforts. The statement also recommended that institutions obtain Year 2000 compliance certification from vendors followed by comprehensive internal testing. In addition, contingency plans should be developed for all vendors that service "mission critical" applications which are applications vital to the successful continuance of a core business activity. The passage of the Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act of 1994 and the Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act may have a significant impact upon the Registrant. The key provisions pertain to interstate banking and interstate branching as well as a reduction in the regulatory burden on the banking industry. During July 1995, Pennsylvania amended the provisions of its Banking Code to authorize full interstate banking and branching under Pennsylvania law and to facilitate the operations of interstate banks in Pennsylvania. As a result of legal and industry changes, management predicts that consolidation will continue as the financial services industry strives for greater cost efficiencies and market share. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 ("FDICIA"), also impacts how the Bank conducts its business. FDICIA's risk-based assessment system is designed to promote safety and soundness in the banking and thrift industries by making the deposit insurance system fairer to well-run institutions and by encouraging weaker institutions to improve their financial condition. Current information regarding FDIC issues and costs is provided in the 1997 Annual Report to Shareholders, within the Management's Discussion section under the subheading deposit insurance fund act of 1996. Information about Bancorp's capital ratios can be found in the 1997 Annual Report, within the Management's Discussion section under the subheading stockholder's equity (including Table 7). Bancorp's and the Bank's capital ratios exceed current regulatory requirements for well capitalized banks. "Truth-in-Savings" a separate subtitle within FDICIA, called the "Bank 6 Enterprize Act of 1991," requires truth-in-savings on consumer deposit accounts so that consumers can make meaningful comparisons between the competing claims of banks with regard to deposit accounts and products. The Bank has been providing information to depositors concerning the terms of their deposit accounts, and in particular the annual percentage yield in compliance with this law. The Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989 ("FIRREA") reformed supervisory, enforcement and penalty provisions relative to financial service companies. Periodically, various types of federal and state legislation is proposed that could result in additional regulation of, and restrictions on, the business of the Corporation and the Bank. It cannot be predicted whether such legislation will be adopted or, if adopted, how such legislation would affect the business of the Corporation and the Bank. As a consequence of the extensive regulation of commercial banking activities in the United States, the Corporation's and the Bank's business is particularly susceptible to being affected by federal legislation and regulations that may increase the cost of doing business. Except as specifically described above, Management believes that the effect of the provisions of the aforementioned legislation on the liquidity, capital resources, and results of operations of the Corporation will be immaterial. Management is not aware of any other current specific recommendations by regulatory authorities or proposed legislation, which if they were implemented, would have a material adverse effect upon the liquidity, capital resources, or results of operations, although the general cost of compliance with numerous and multiple federal and state laws and regulations does have, and in the future may have, a negative impact on the Corporation's results of operations. Other information At December 31, 1997, the Bank had one hundred and thirty-two (132) full-time employees and nineteen (19) part-time employees. The required Statistical Information for Item 1 can be found in Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" of this report.
