Basis of Presentation Continental Bancorporation (the "Corporation") is a one bank holding company and the parent company of Continental Bank of New Jersey. Other than Continental Bank of New Jersey, the Corporation has no subsidiaries. All references to the Bank or the Corporation hereinafter refer to both. The consolidated statement of condition at June 30, 1996 and statements of earnings and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 are unaudited, but in the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of such results for all periods have been made. The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. 2. Impaired Loans On January 1, 1995 the Bank adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 114, "Accounting for Creditors for Impairment of a Loan," as amended by SFAS No. 118, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan- Income Recognition and Disclosures." SFAS No. 114 requires that a creditor measure impairment based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, except that as a practical expedient, a creditor may measure impairment based on a loan's observable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. Regardless of the measurement method, a creditor must measure impairment based on the fair value of the collateral when the creditor determines that foreclosure is probable. SFAS No. 118 allows creditors to use existing methods for recognizing interest income on impaired loans. 3. Accounting for Stock Based Compensation The FASB issued a new standard, 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, the standard permits entities to continue accounting for employee stock options and similar equity instruments under APB Opinion 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." Entities that continue to account for stock options using APB Opinion 25 are required to make 6 pro forma disclosures of net income and earnings per share, as if the fair value-based method of accounting defined in SFAS No. 123 had been applied. The Bank has not determined which method it will follow in the future but anticipates following APB Opinion 25. The Bank will be required to adopt the new standard for its year ended December 31, 1996. Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations General Continental Bancorporation (the "Corporation") is the holding company for Continental Bank of New Jersey (the "Bank"), which is a New Jersey State chartered commercial bank. The Bank's operations are conducted from four offices located in Camden County, New Jersey. The Bank has regulatory approval to open a fifth office located in Stratford, New Jersey. The Bank offers a full range of bank services, both retail and commercial, at its four locations. The Bank's deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Financial Condition At June 30, 1996, total assets amounted to $173,728,000, a decrease of $18,035,000, from total assets of $191,763,000, at December 31, 1995. This decrease was primarily the result of scheduled return of principal in the security portfolio. Investments During the second quarter 1996, investment securities decreased by $10,037,000. This decrease was primarily the result of scheduled repayment of principal from fixed rate securities. The investment portfolio at June 30, 1996, consisted of approximately $21,399,000 in high quality and short duration Mortgage Backed Securities and $60,210,000 in U.S. Agency securities. All Mortgage Backed Securities are U.S. Agency issued and therefore, in management's opinion, represent no credit risk. The Mortgage Backed Securities pay a fixed coupon and therefore represent interest rate risk but have very short durations and limited extension risk. The remainder of the investment portfolio primarily consists of floating Agency securities which represent no credit risk, adjust not less frequently than quarterly and therefore represent only very limited interest rate risk. Proceeds on sales of securities classified as available-for-sale were $0 and $7,178,000 for the periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. For the periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, there were gross realized gains of $0 and $21,000, respectively. There were no realized 7 losses for the six month period ended in 1996 or 1995. The Corporation uses the specific identification method to determine the cost of the securities sold. The amortized costs, unrealized gains and losses, and fair values of the Corporation's available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities are summarized as follows: 1996 Gross Gross Fair Amortized unrealized unrealized market cost gains losses value --------- ---------- --------- ------ (in thousands) Available-for-sale securities U.S. Government agency $ 60,442 $ 168 $ 400 $ 60,210 FHLMC mortgage-backed PAC's 2,292 - 7 2,285 Federal Home Loan Bank stock 6,589 - - 6,589 -------- --------- ---------- -------- 69,323 168 407 69,084 -------- --------- ---------- -------- Held-to-maturity securities Mortgage-backed securities FHLMC pass-through certificates 5,103 - 123 4,980 FNMA mortgage-backed PACs 9,185 - 82 9,103 FHLMC mortgage-backed PACs 4,826 - 25 4,801 -------- --------- ---------- -------- Total mortgage-backed securities 19,114 - 230 18,884 ======== ========= ======== ======== - $ 88,437 $ 168 $ 637 $ 87,968 ========= ========= ======== ======== The maturity distribution of the investment portfolio of the Bank, as of June 30, 1996, is summarized as follows: Available-for-sale Held-to-maturity ------------------ ---------------- Estimated Estimated Amortized fair Amortized fair cost value cost value ---- ----- ---- ----- Due in one year or less $ 1,000 $ 995 $ -- $ -- Due after one year through five years 2,607 2,586 -- -- Due after five years 12,826 12,808 -- -- Due after ten years 44,009 43,821 -- -- ------- ------- ------- ------- 60,442 60,210 -- -- Mortgage-backed securities 2,292 2,285 19,114 18,884 Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) stock 6,589 6,589 -- -- ------- ------- ------- ------- $69,323 $69,084 $19,114 $18,884 ======= ======= ======= ======= 8 Loan Portfolio The Bank tailors financial services to individuals and businesses within its marketplace. A substantial portion of the financial services offered consists of consumer, real estate and commercial loans. The Bank's primary loan policy objective is to grant and maintain loans which ensure the safety of deposits and capital, while generating sufficient income to produce a superior rate of return on capital and assets. Real estate loans generally have a maximum of 80% loan to appraised value. Other secured loans have a loan to value ratio of between 50-80%. Unsecured loans are approximately 3.69% of total loans at June 30, 1996. The loan portfolio declined at an annualized rate of 25.37% during the six month period ended June 30, 1996. This reduction in loan balances was due principally to scheduled mortgage amortization and sale of real estate projects financed by the Bank to third parties. The following table reflects the mix of the loan portfolio at June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995: 06/30/96 12/31/95 -------- -------- (in thousands of dollars) Loans % of Loans % of ----- ---- ----- ---- Total Total ----- ----- Commercial $ 19,910 28.84% $ 25,101 31.74% Installment 15,601 22.60% 17,678 22.36% Mortgage 33,532 48.57% 36,294 45.90% -------- ------- ------- ------ Total gross loans 69,043 100.00% 79,073 100.00% ======= ======= Deferred loan fees (70) (94) Unearned discount - (2) Unamortized premium 100 112 ------- ------- 69,073 79,089 Allowance for credit losses (1,239) (1,400) ------- ------- Total net loans $67,834 $77,689 ======= ======= 9 Non Performing Loans The following table shows the balance, and the effect on interest income, of non-performing assets in the Bank's loan portfolio, by category, at and for the period shown below: 6/30/96 12/31/95 ------- -------- (in thousands) Loans past due 90 days still accruing interest: Commercial $ 6 $ 30 Installment 12 -- Real Estate 67 -- ------ ------ Total 85 30 ------ ------ Non-accrual loans: Commercial 120 1,968 Installment -- 1 Real Estate 1,074 452 ------ ------ Total 1,194 2,421 ------ ------ Troubled Debt Restructured Loans 31 135 ------ ------ Total non-performing loans $1,310 $2,586 ======= ====== Ratio of non-performing loans to total period-end loans 1.90% 3.27% ====== ===== Ratio of non-performing assets to total assets 1.32% 1.78% ====== ====== Six Months Ended Six Month Ended ---------------- --------------- 6/30/96 6/30/95 (in thousands) (in thousands) (unaudited) Gross amount of Interest which would have been recorded at original rate on Non- accrual and Restructured Loans. $ 53 $ 51 Interest received from customers on Non- accrual and Restructured Loans. (4) - --------- -------- Net impact on Interest Income of Non- accrual Loans. $ 49 $ 51 ========= ========= Non accrual loans decreased by $982,000 during the second quarter of 1996. This decrease in non accrual loans was primarily the result of receiving $659,000 in payments, $184,000 in charge-offs and transferring two loans to other real estate in the amount of $287,000, offset in part by transferring four loans, amounting to $148,000, of additional loans to non-accrual status. At June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995, other real estate owned was at $989,000 and $818,000, respectively. 10 The balance of impaired loans was $1,280,000 at June 30, 1996. The Bank has identified a loan as impaired when it is probable that interest and principal will not be collected according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The impaired loan balance included $1,194,000 of non-accrual loans. The allowance for loan loss associated with the $1,280,000 of impaired loans was $182,000 at June 30, 1996. Total cash collected on impaired loans during the quarter ended June 30, 1996 was $663,000 of which $659,000 was credited to the principal balance outstanding on such loans and $4,000 was recognized as interest income. Interest that would have been accrued on impaired loans during the quarter was $53,000. Interest income recognized during the quarter was $4,000. The Bank's policy for interest income recognition on impaired loans is to recognize income on restructured loans under the accrual method. The Bank recognizes income on non-accrual loans under the cash basis, when the loans are both current and the collateral on the loan is sufficient to cover the outstanding obligation to the Bank; if these factors do not exist, the Bank will not recognize income. Allowance for Credit Losses The analysis of the allowance for credit losses for the periods indicated are as follows: At At 6/30/96 12/31/95 ------- -------- (in thousands) Balance, beginning of year $ 1,400 $ 939 Provision charges to operations 120 1,353 ------- ------- 1,520 2,292 Recoveries of loans previously charged off Real estate 2 -- Commercial 36 15 Installment 8 3 ------- ------- Total recoveries 46 18 Loans charged-off ------- ------- Real estate (26) (311) Commercial (241) (393) Installment (60) (206) ------- ------- Total charged-off (327) (910) ------- ------- Net (charged-off) recoveries (281) (892) ------- ------- Balance, at end of year $ 1,239 $ 1,400 ======= ======= Ratio of allowance for credit losses to non- performing loans 94.58% 54.14% Ratio of allowance for credit losses to non- performing assets 53.89% 41.13% Ratio of allowance for credit losses to non- accrual loans 103.77% 57.83% The Bank determines the level of its allowance for possible loan losses based upon a number of factors. The Bank conducts a monthly review of the loan portfolio to evaluate overall credit 11 quality. This evaluation consists of an analysis of the individual loans and overall risk characteristics and size of the different loan portfolios, and takes into consideration current economic and market conditions, the capability of specific borrowers to repay specific loan obligations as well as current loan collateral values. The Bank also considers past estimates of possible loan losses as compared with actual losses. As adjustments become identified, they are reported in earnings for the period in which they become known. Deposits Deposits decreased between December 31, 1995 and June 30, 1996 by $6,037,000. The mix of the deposit portfolio reflects a decrease of $1,014,000, or 4.04%, in non-interest bearing demand deposits, a decrease of $5,932,000 or 9.09% in money market and savings deposit accounts, and an increase of $909,000, or 2.37%, in time deposits. Management believes that the overall decline in deposit balances is seasonal in nature. Management believes the shift in deposit mix to certificates of deposits from savings accounts is a result of the difference between the rates paid on savings accounts and those on certificates. Federal Home Loan Bank Advances The Bank utilizes Federal Home Loan Bank Advances to manage the relative asset and liability sensitivity characteristics of the Bank's Balance Sheet and thereby, better manage interest rate risk. Management's asset/liability strategy is to maximize the Bank's net interest income while minimizing earnings volatility, which can result from changes in the general level of interest rates. The Bank implements this strategy by purchasing securities funded with Fed Funds, Federal Home Loan Bank advances and securities sold under agreement to repurchase. Decisions on the amount, type, and maturity of a security chosen for purchase are made after computer simulation modeling of the Bank's net interest income in various rising, falling and stable interest rate environments. At June 30, 1996, outstanding borrowings under the advances totaled $37,139,000. The weighted average interest rate of the advances at June 30, 1996, was 5.72%. Substantially all of the advances mature in July 1996. All advances maturing in July 1996 may be rolled forward as is necessary. The maximum amount of advances outstanding at any month-end during the second quarter 1996 was $40,152,000. Liquidity and Capital Resources Liquidity defines the ability of the Bank to generate funds to support asset growth, meet deposit withdrawals, maintain reserve requirements and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. An important component of a bank's asset and liability management structure is the level of liquidity which is available to meet the needs of its customers and requirements of creditors. During the past three years, the liquidity needs of the Bank were primarily met by cash on hand, federal funds, deposits and FHLB advances. The Bank invests its funds not 12 needed for operations ("excess liquidity") primarily in daily federal funds sold and investments securities available for sale. Other sources of funds result from the maturity and sale of investment and mortgage-backed securities available for sale and the paydown of loans. Securities cash outflows represent purchases of securities. Securities available for sale may be sold for liquidity purposes as necessary. Securities held to maturity are available for liquidity after such maturity. The Bank knows of no adverse conditions which would impact the continued short or long term use of its cash inflows as heretofore described. The Corporation recognizes the importance of maintaining adequate capital levels to support sound, profitable growth and to encourage depositor and investor confidence. To increase the Bank's capital levels, the Corporation contributed $900,000 to the capital of the Bank in 1995. The Corporation and the Bank are required to maintain minimum ratios of Tier 1 and Total capital to "Risk-weighted" assets and a minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio, as defined by the banking regulators. The capital ratios of the Corporation and the Bank at selected dates are as follows: Regulatory 6/30/96 12/31/95 Requirement ------- -------- ----------- The Corporation Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital Ratio 13.97% 13.01% 4.00% Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio 15.22% 15.52% 8.00% Tier 1 Leverage Capital Ratio 6.43% 6.04% 3.00%-5.00% The Bank Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital Ratio 15.19% 13.84% 4.00% Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio 16.44% 15.09% 8.00% Tier 1 Leverage Capital Ratio 6.99% 6.48% 3.00%-5.00% At June 30, 1996, the Bank's actual tier 1, total capital and tier 1 leverage ratio all exceed minimum regulatory capital requirements as well as the federal "well capitalized" standard. The Bank is not under any agreement with the regulatory authorities nor is it aware of any current recommendations by the regulatory authorities which, if they were implemented, would have a material effect on liquidity, capital resources or operations of the Company. Asset and Liability Management Important to the concept of liquidity is the management of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. An interest rate sensitive asset or liability is one that, within a defined time 13 period, either matures or experiences interest rate change in line with general market rates. Interest rate sensitivity measures the relative volatility of a bank's interest margin resulting from changes in market interest rates. Through asset and liability management, the Bank seeks to position itself to contend with changing interest rates. The following table summarizes repricing intervals for interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities as of June 30, 1996 and the difference or "gap" between them on an actual and cumulative basis for the periods indicated. A gap is considered positive when the amount of interest rate sensitive assets exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities. A gap is considered negative when the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities exceeds interest rate sensitive assets. During a period of falling interest rates, a positive gap would tend to adversely affect net interest income, while a negative gap would tend to result in an increase in net interest income. During a period of rising interest rates, a positive gap would tend to result in an increase in net interest income while a negative gap would tend to affect net interest income adversely. To the extent loans presented in this table are on demand basis, they are categorized as to maturity based upon their stated amortization schedule.

The Corporation recorded net income of $485,000 for the six month period ended June 30, 1996, compared to $173,000 for the same period in 1995, primarily as a result of improving the Bank's non-interest expense. Net Interest Income The table on the following page provides information concerning the balances, yields and rates on interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities during the periods indicated. Net interest income before provision for loan losses for the three month period ended June 30, 1996, increased $75,000 or 4.96% compared to the same period in 1995. This increase was primarily a result of a decrease in rates paid on Federal Home Loan Bank advances and time deposits, partially offset by a decrease in yield on interest earning assets. 15 Average Balance and Net Interest Income (in thousands) Three Months Ended Three Months Ended 6/30/96 6/30/95 ------- ------- Average Yield Average Yield Interest-earning assets:(1) Balance Interest Rate Balance Interest Rate Real estate loans $ 35,186 805 9.15% $ 35,589 769 8.64% Commercial Loans 21,904 490 8.95% 28,702 664 9.25% Consumer loans 15,971 423 10.59% 20,208 557 11.03% Investment Securities 90,975 1,346 5.92% 91,772 1,345 5.86% FHLB Stock 6,589 102 6.19% 4,846 78 6.44% Federal funds sold 951 13 5.47 723 11 6.09% --------- ----- --------- ----- Total 171,576 3,179 7.41% 181,840 3,424 7.53% --------- ----- --------- ----- Interest-bearing liabilities: Deposits: Money Market and Interest- bearing demand 41,381 293 2.83% 41,368 346 3.35% Savings 21,344 161 3.02% 22,667 141 2.49% Time 40,433 556 5.50% 35,193 496 5.64% Borrowed funds: FHLB advances 39,366 552 5.61% 39,507 620 6.28% Other borrowed funds 1,196 30 10.03% 17,949 309 6.89% --------- ----- ------- ----- Total 152,031 1,592 4.19% 156,684 1,912 4.88% ======= ===== ======= ====== Excess of interest-earning assets over interest- bearing liabilities $ 19,545 $ 25,156 ========= ======== Net interest and dividend income $ 1,587 $ 1,512 ======== ======= Interest rate spread 3.22% 2.65% ===== ===== Net yield on interest earning assets 3.70% 3.33% ===== ===== - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (1) Non-accrual loan balances are included in average balances. The net yield on interest earning assets for the three month period ended June 30, 1996 was 3.70%, an increase of 27 basis points from the 3.33% yield at June 30, 1995. The increase in net yield on interest earning assets was primarily the result of a decrease in rates paid on Federal 16 Home Loan Bank advances and time deposits, partially offset by a decrease in yield on interest earning assets.

During the six months ended June 30, 1996, a provision of $120,000 was made to the allowance for credit loss.

Data processing expense increased by $26,000 primarily due to increased courier charges. Legal expenses increased by $24,000 primarily a result of collection of non-performing loans.
