Significant Accounting Policies The consolidated financial statements for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 are unaudited and do not include information or footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial condition, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. However, in the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for an entire year. The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in Note 1 to the Company's consolidated financial statements contained in the 1995 Annual Report to stockholders and are incorporated herein by reference. Page 4 MIDWEST BANCSHARES, INC. and SUBSIDIARIES MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Forward-looking Statements When used in this Form 10-QSB, the words or phrases "will likely result", "are expected to", "will continue", "is anticipated", "estimate", "project", or similar expressions are intended to identify "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties including changes in economic conditions in the Company's market area, changes in policies by regulatory agencies, fluctuations in interest rates, demand for loans in the Company's market area and competition, that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical earnings and those presently anticipated or projected. The Company wishes to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as to the date made. The Company wishes to advise readers that the factors listed above could affect the Company's financial performance and could cause the Company's actual results for future periods to differ materially from any opinions or statements expressed with respect to future periods in any current statements. The Company does not undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligation, to publicly release the result of any revisions which may be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events. Results of Operations Midwest Bancshares, Inc. (the "Company") had a net loss of $187,000, or $0.51 per share, and net earnings of $349,000, or $0.93 per share, respectively, for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1996, compared to net earnings of $291,000 and $797,000, or $0.75 and $1.99 per share, for the same periods in 1995. The net loss for the quarter and the decrease in net earnings for the nine month period were primarily due to a one-time pre-tax charge of approximately $675,000 representing a special assessment of 65.7 basis points on the Association's deposits held as of March 31, 1995, as a result of the Deposit Insurance Funds Act of 1996 which was passed on September 30, 1996 to recapitalize the SAIF insurance fund. Excluding this unusual expense, net earnings for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1996 would have been $241,000, or $0.65 per share, and $777,000, or $2.06 per share, respectively. Other comparisons are discussed in more detail below. Net Interest Income Net interest income increased $13,000 and $45,000, respectively, for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1996 over the comparable periods in 1995. The Company's net interest rate spread was 2.60% and 2.68%, respectively, for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1996 compared to 2.66% and 2.77% for the comparable periods in 1995. The Company's net interest margin on interest-earning assets was 2.87% and 2.95%, respectively, for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1996 compared to 2.93% and 3.02% for the comparable periods in 1995. Interest income increased by $127,000 and $537,000 for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1996, respectively, over the comparable periods in 1995. Average interest-earning assets increased by approximately $4.4 million and $5.4 million for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1996, respectively, compared to the same periods in 1995. The increases in average interest-earning assets were primarily due to increases in loans outstanding and increases in investments, primarily U.S. Agency bonds, funded by increases in FHLB advances. The average yield on interest-earning assets increased by 13 basis points and 24 basis points, respectively, for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1996, over the comparable periods in 1995. The increases in average Page 5 MIDWEST BANCSHARES, INC. and SUBSIDIARIES MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Results of Operations (continued) Net Interest Income (continued) yield were primarily due to the purchase of investments and loans yielding higher market interest rates and due to adjustable-rate loans, some of which have below-market initial teaser rates, and mortgage-backed securities in the portfolio adjusting to higher rates in response to higher market interest rates. Yield adjustments on the Company's adjustable-rate portfolio occur periodically over time and may tend to lag behind the changes experienced in the market. These adjustments may also be limited by periodic and lifetime caps on such adjustments. Interest expense increased by $114,000 and $492,000, respectively, for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1996, over the comparable periods in 1995. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased by approximately $4.3 million and $5.1 million for the three months and nine months, respectively, primarily due to increases of $8.7 million and $9.7 million in borrowings from the FHLB, partially offset by decreases of $4.4 million and $4.6 million of deposits, respectively. The decrease in average deposits was primarily the result of the sale of $7.7 million of deposits in December, 1995. The average rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities increased 19 basis points and 33 basis points for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1996, respectively, over the comparable periods in 1995. The increases in average rates paid were primarily due to deposits and FHLB advances repricing to higher rates as a result of higher market interest rates. The changing mix of funding sources also contributed to the increase in the cost of funds as the Company increased its borrowings from the FHLB, in order to fund asset growth, at rates which were generally higher than the overall cost of deposits. Provision for Losses on Loans The provision for losses on loans was $12,000 and $36,000 for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995. The amount of provision was a result of the determination by management to maintain the allowance for losses on loans at an adequate level to absorb potential loan losses. At September 30, 1996 and 1995, the Company's allowance for losses on loans totaled $674,000 and $664,000, respectively, or 0.82% and 0.91% of total loans, excluding mortgage-backed securities, and 110.67% and 337.06% of total non-performing loans. The latter ratio was impacted by a $412,000 increase in non-performing loans from $197,000 at September 30, 1995 to $609,000 at September 30, 1996, primarily due to one multi-family loan for $476,000 which was placed on non-accrual status due to the bankruptcy filing of the borrower. Management does not anticipate a material loss on the resolution of this loan delinquency. The Company had net charge-offs of $1,000 and $38,000, respectively, during the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1996 compared to none and $22,000 for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1995. Non-interest income Total non-interest income decreased by $97,000 and $77,000 for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1996 compared to the same periods in 1995. The decreases were primarily due to gains of $26,000 and $76,000 on the sale of marketable equity securities for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1995 with no comparable gains in 1996. Also contributing to the decrease in non-interest income for the three months ended September 30, 1996 was a $75,000 special dividend received from the Association's data processor in September 1995, with no comparable dividend in 1996. The Company did, however, receive a $59,000 distribution from the sale of the Company's data processor in June, 1996. Page 6 MIDWEST BANCSHARES, INC. and SUBSIDIARIES MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Results of Operations (continued) Non-interest expense Total non-interest expense increased by $646,000 and $609,000 for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1996 compared to the same periods in 1995. The increases were primarily due to a one-time pre-tax charge of approximately $675,000 representing a special assessment of 65.7 basis points on the Association's deposits held as of March 31, 1995, as a result of the Deposit Insurance Funds Act of 1996 which was passed on September 30, 1996 to recapitalize the SAIF insurance fund. This assessment is payable on November 27, 1996 and will be deductible for tax purposes on the Company's 1996 income tax returns. As a result of the special assessment, the SAIF fund will be fully-funded and therefore, the Association expects a reduction of FDIC assessments which will provide annual savings of approximately $170,000 before tax, based on current deposit levels, beginning in January 1997. The one-time charge discussed above was partially offset by a decrease in compensation and benefits of $18,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 primarily due to increased loan production due to more favorable borrowing rates, primarily in the first quarter, which resulted in increased loan fees of $28,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1996, which offset the cost of originating loans, primarily compensation and benefits. Taxes on Income Taxes on income were $252,000 and $193,000 less for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1996, than the comparable periods in 1995. The decreases were primarily due to decreased taxable income due to the tax-deductibility of the deposit insurance assessment discussed above. Financial Condition The Company's total assets at September 30, 1996 were $137.7 million, increasing from $133.0 million at December 31, 1995. The increase was due to an intentional increase in interest-earning assets in an effort to increase net interest income. The increase of approximately $4.7 million was primarily due to the purchase of $7.6 million of securities available for sale, the purchase of $2.0 million of mortgage-backed securities to be held to maturity, the purchase of $5.0 million in loans receivable, and the net origination of loans receivable of $2.1 million, partially offset by maturities of $6.5 million of investment securities held to maturity, and principal repayments of $4.6 million from mortgage-backed securities. The increase in total assets was funded by borrowing $5.4 million, net in advances from the FHLB. Cash of $511,000 was used to acquire 5% of the Company's common stock during the nine months ended September 30, 1996 pursuant to the Company's stock repurchase program. Loan originations during the nine months ended September 30, 1996 totaled $5.5 million more than in the same period in 1995. The increase was primarily due to a more favorable lending market due to lower loan rates in the first quarter of 1996 compared to the first quarter of 1995. Total stockholders' equity decreased $828,000 due to the $511,000 purchase of treasury stock and the $532,000 change in net unrealized losses on investments available for sale (due to increased market rates of interest), offset by the $349,000 net earnings for the period less $144,000 in dividends declared during the period. Page 7 MIDWEST BANCSHARES, INC. and SUBSIDIARIES MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company's principal sources of funds are deposits and advances from FHLB, amortization and prepayment of loan principal (including mortgage-backed securities), sales or maturities of investment securities, mortgage-backed securities and short-term investments and operations. While scheduled loan repayments and maturing investments are relatively predictable, deposit flows and early loan repayments are more influenced by interest rates, general economic conditions and competition. The Company generally manages the pricing of its deposits to maintain a steady deposit balance, but has from time to time decided not to pay deposit rates that are as high as those of its competitors, and, when necessary, to supplement deposits with longer term and/or less expensive alternative sources of funds. Federal regulations require the Association to maintain minimum levels of liquid assets consisting of cash and other eligible investments. The required percentage is currently 5% of net withdrawable savings deposits and borrowings payable on demand or in one year or less during the preceding calendar quarter. For September 1996, the Association's liquidity ratio was 9.6% compared to 23.4% for December 1995. The decrease was primarily due to the purchase of investment securities available for sale, which, because of their maturity term, did not qualify as liquid investments and due to the use of liquid assets to fund an increase in the loan portfolio. Assuming market interest rates are stable or decrease, a high level of liquidity may have a negative effect on the Association's interest rate spread due to a larger amount of the Association's assets earning the then-current lower rates of interest. However, a high level of liquidity positions the Association to respond to possible higher interest rates by providing the Association with the ability to deploy liquid assets into higher yielding assets as rates increase. The Association intends to deploy liquid assets by increasing its loan portfolio; however, its ability to do so depends on the loan demand in its market areas, competition for such loans, to the extent they meet the Association's underwriting guidelines, and opportunities for participating in loans in nearby markets. Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term responsibility of management. The Association adjusts its investments in liquid assets based upon management's assessment of (i) expected loan demand, (ii) expected deposit flows, (iii) yields available on interest-bearing deposits, and (iv) the objectives of its asset/liability management strategy. Excess liquidity is invested generally in interest-bearing overnight deposits and other short-term government and agency obligations. If the Association requires funds beyond its ability to generate them internally, it has additional borrowing capacity with the Federal Home Loan Bank. The Association anticipates that it will have sufficient funds available to meet current loan and purchase commitments. At September 30, 1996, the Association had outstanding commitments to extend credit totaling $0.6 million and no commitments to purchase loans or investments. At September 30, 1996, the Association had tangible and core capital of $8.4 million, or 6.09% of total adjusted assets which exceeded the regulatory requirements of 1.5% and 3.0%, respectively, by $6.3 million and $4.2 million, respectively. The risk-based capital requirement is currently 8% of risk-weighted assets. As of September 30, 1996, the Association had risk-weighted assets of $59.2 million, a risk-based requirement of $4.7 million and risk-based capital of $9.0 million, or 15.27%, which exceeds the requirement by $4.3 million. The Association's regulatory capital information is shown in a table on the following page.

At September 30, 1996, the net unrealized loss of $191,000, down from a net gain of $341,000 at December 31, 1995, consisted primarily of the net unrealized market loss, net of tax, due to increased market interest rates, on certain GNMA mortgage-backed securities, U.S. Agency securities, and marketable equity securities which have been identified as available for sale by management.
