Page 6 7 (E) NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of United Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 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 six month period ending June 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2000. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999. NOTE 2 - LOANS HELD FOR SALE Mortgage loans serviced for others are not included in the accompanying consolidated statements. The unpaid principal balances of mortgage loans serviced for others was $121,337,000 and $124,578,000 at the end of June 2000 and 1999. The balance of loans serviced for others related to servicing rights that have been capitalized was $100,571,000 and $98,705,000 at June 30, 2000 and 1999. Mortgage servicing rights activity in thousands of dollars for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 follows: Unamortized cost of mortgage servicing rights 2000 1999 --------------------------------------------- ------ ------ Balance at January 1 $ 728 $ 646 Amount capitalized year to date 28 137 Amount amortized year to date (41) (69) ----- ----- Balance at period end $ 715 $ 714 ===== ===== No valuation allowance was considered necessary for mortgage servicing rights at period end 2000 and 1999. NOTE 3 - COMMON STOCK AND EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share are based upon the weighted average number of shares outstanding plus contingently issuable shares during the year. Diluted earnings per share further assumes the dilutive effect of additional common shares issuable under stock options. The Company issued 5% stock dividends in May 2000 and 1999. Earnings per share, dividends per share and weighted average shares have been restated to reflect these stock dividends. Under the Company's 1999 stock option plan, 30,550 options were granted on May 10, 2000 at the market price of $48.00 per share. Page 7 8 A reconciliation of basic and diluted earnings per share follows: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended In thousands of dollars, except per share data June 30, June 30, ------------------------------------------------------------- 2000 1999 2000 1999 ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- Net income $ 1,568 $ 1,248 $ 2,803 $ 2,479 ========== ========== ========== ========== Basic earning per share: Weighted average common shares outstanding 1,909,746 1,907,835 1,909,916 1,907,769 Weighted average contingently issuable shares 7,995 5,976 7,713 5,838 ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- 1,917,741 1,913,811 1,917,629 1,913,607 ========== ========== ========== ========== Basic earnings per share $ 0.82 $ 0.65 $ 1.46 $ 1.30 ========== ========== ========== ========== Diluted earnings per share: Weighted average common shares outstanding from basic earnings per share 1,917,741 1,913,811 1,917,629 1,913,607 Dilutive effect of stock options 538 -- 269 -- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- 1,918,279 1,913,811 1,917,898 1,913,607 ========== ========== ========== ========== Diluted earnings per share $ 0.82 $ 0.65 $ 1.46 $ 1.30 ========== ========== ========== ========== ITEM 2- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS This discussion provides information about the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of United Bancorp, Inc. and its subsidiary, United Bank & Trust ("Bank") for the three and six month periods ending June 30, 2000 and 1999. FINANCIAL CONDITION SECURITIES Balances in the Company's investment securities portfolio continued to decline during the second quarter of 2000, primarily as a result of loan growth in excess of deposit growth. Principal repayments on mortgage backed securities, as well as maturities within the various portfolios, contributed to the decrease in balances, as most maturities were not replaced during the quarter. In spite of this decline, the mix of the securities portfolio remains relatively unchanged from period to period over the long term. The chart below shows the mix of the portfolio. 6/30/2000 12/31/1999 6/30/1999 ----------- ------------ ----------- U.S. Treasury and agency securities 24.3% 24.7% 23.9% Mortgage backed agency securities 18.2% 19.3% 22.4% Obligations of states and political subdivisions 46.7% 46.2% 38.5% Corporate, asset backed, and other securities 10.8% 9.8% 15.2% ---------- ----------- ---------- Total Securities 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% ========== =========== ========== LOANS Loan growth during the second quarter of 2000 remained consistent with that achieved in the first quarter of the year, and exceeded the levels achieved in 1999. During the second quarter of 2000, annualized loan growth was 13.6%, compared to six month annualized growth of 13.8%. Business loans and residential Page 8 9 mortgages led the year to date increases, while other personal loan categories declined. This decline was due to the sale of the Bank's credit card portfolio at the end of the second quarter. Information regarding the sale of the credit card portfolio is detailed in the noninterest income discussion below. The mix of the loan portfolio has remained relatively unchanged from prior periods. Over the long term, the trend is toward an increased percentage of residential mortgage and business loans, with slight declines in personal loans. Sale of the Bank's credit card portfolio at the end of June resulted in a decline in personal loans as of June 30. The table below shows total loans outstanding, in thousands of dollars at June 30, and December 31, and their percentage of the total loan portfolio. All loans are domestic and contain no concentrations by industry or client. June 30, 2000 December 31, 1999 June 30, 1999 ----------------------- ------------------------ ------------------------ Balance % of total Balance % of total Balance % of total ------- ---------- ------- ---------- ------- ---------- Portfolio loans: Personal $ 56,068 17.0% $ 59,045 19.2% $ 57,363 20.4% Business loans and commercial mortgages 110,958 33.7% 99,832 32.4% 85,732 30.5% Tax exempt 2,306 0.7% 1,710 0.6% 1,737 0.6% Residential mortgage 126,245 38.3% 114,150 37.0% 110,375 39.2% Construction 33,942 10.3% 33,530 10.88% 26,227 9.3% ---------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- Total loans $ 329,519 100.0% $ 308,267 100.00% $ 281,434 100.0% ========== ========= ========= ========= ========= ========= CREDIT QUALITY The Company continues to maintain a high level of asset quality compared to peers, as a result of actively monitoring delinquencies, nonperforming assets and potential problem loans. In addition, the Bank uses an independent loan review firm to assess the continued quality of its business loan portfolio. Nonperforming loans are comprised of (1) loans accounted for on a nonaccrual basis; (2) loans contractually past due 90 days or more as to interest or principal payments (but not included in the nonaccrual loans in (1) above); and (3) other loans whose terms have been renegotiated to provide a reduction or deferral of interest or principal because of a deterioration in the financial position of the borrower (exclusive of loans in (1) or (2) above). The chart below shows the aggregate amount of the Company's nonperforming assets by type, in thousands of dollars, as of June 30, 2000 and 1999, and December 31, 1999. The Company's classification of nonperforming loans is generally consistent with loans identified as impaired. 6/30/2000 12/31/1999 6/30/1999 --------- ---------- --------- Nonaccrual loans $ 864 $ 1,305 $ 1,015 Loans past due 90 days or more 564 174 295 Troubled debt restructurings 133 134 135 --------- ---------- --------- Total nonperforming loans 1,561 1,613 1,445 Other real estate 544 347 335 --------- ---------- --------- Total nonperforming assets $ 2,105 $ 1,960 $ 1,780 ========= ========== ========= Percent of nonperforming loans to total loans 0.47% 0.52% 0.51% Percent of nonperforming assets to total assets 0.48% 0.46% 0.44% Page 9 10 Nonperforming assets increased from December 31, 1999, while nonperforming loans remained virtually flat. This is a result of the addition of two properties to other real estate during the quarter. All other categories of nonperforming assets remained virtually unchanged from December of 1999, but remain slightly higher than June 1999 levels. The Company's ratios of nonperforming assets are in line with other banks of similar size and makeup. The Company's allowance for loan losses remains at a level consistent with its anticipated potential losses. The provision provides for currently anticipated losses inherent in the current portfolio. Charge-offs for the year have been lower than during previous periods, resulting in an increase in the allowance. The Company retains some liability for a limited time on the portfolio of credit card loans that were sold during the second quarter of 2000. As a result, $100,000 was transferred from the Company's Allowance for Loan Losses to a contingent liability account. That transfer is reflected in the chart below. An analysis of the allowance for loan losses, in thousands of dollars, for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 follows: 2000 1999 ------- ------- Balance at January 1: $ 3,300 $ 2,799 Loans charged off (185) (486) Recoveries credited to allowance 105 100 Provision charged to operations 708 630 Adjustment for credit cards sold (100) - ------- ------- Balance at June 30: $ 3,828 $ 3,043 ======= ======= The Company has increased its provision for loan losses over the same period in 1999 as a result of an increase in loan volume. This increase in the provision, which reflects increased anticipated losses in the loan portfolio, is also reflected in changes made during the first quarter of 2000 in the method of allocation of the allowance for loan losses. The following table presents the portion of the allowance for loan losses applicable to each loan category in thousands of dollars, as of June 30, 2000 and 1999, and December 31, 1999. June 30, December 31, June 30, 2000 1999 1999 ---- ----- ---- Business and commercial mortgage $ 2,193 $ 1,130 $ 1,184 Tax exempt - - - Residential mortgage 11 22 23 Personal 610 646 613 Construction - - - Unallocated 1,014 1,502 1,223 ------------------------------------ Total $ 3,828 $ 3,300 $ 3,043 ==================================== The allocation method used prior to the first quarter of 2000 was based on account-specific allocations for identified credits and the four-year historical loss average, in order to determine allocations by portfolio. Effective with the first quarter of 2000, the allocation method was modified to incorporate recent trends in the rate of net charge-offs and delinquency in the business and commercial mortgage portfolio, resulting in an increased percentage of the allowance to that segment of the loan portfolio. Construction loans are short-term and are converted to residential or commercial mortgages on the books of the Company. These loans do not typically result in a loss during the construction phase. Therefore, any allocation for construction loans is applied to the category of loan where the final loan resides, rather than to construction loans. Page 10 11 DEPOSITS Total deposits were flat for the second quarter, following an increase during the first quarter. Year to date annualized deposit growth is 4.65%, compared to annualized growth of 8.99% for the first six months of 1999. However, deposit growth in the second quarter of 1999 included the acquisition of more than $20 million of deposits as a result of a branch purchase. Management anticipates that deposit growth during 2000 will continue to be steady, with continued expansion in new and existing markets. LIQUIDITY The Bank maintained an average federal funds borrowed position for the second quarter of 2000 and year to date, although generally the Bank moves in and out of the fed funds market as liquidity needs vary. Borrowings increased from December 31, 1999 and March 31, 2000, and Management anticipates that deposit and loan growth will cause continued variation in the short term funds position of the Bank. The Company has a number of additional liquidity sources should the need arise, and Management has no concerns for the liquidity position of the Company. CAPITAL RESOURCES The capital ratios of the Company exceed the regulatory guidelines for well capitalized institutions. The following table shows the Company's capital ratios and ratio calculations at June 30, 2000 and 1999, and December 31, 1999. Dollars are shown in thousands.

The net result was a tightening of spread and net interest margin. This tightening is primarily a result of the Company's interest liability-sensitive position, reflecting a risk to earnings when interest rates rise. In fact, interest rates have risen during recent periods, resulting in the expected decline in margin. However, the Company's margin remains quite strong, and Management continues to take steps to neutralize some portion of this risk. The following table shows the year to date daily average Consolidated Balance Sheet, interest earned (on a taxable equivalent basis) or paid, and the annualized effective rate or yield, for the periods ended June 30, 2000 and 1999.

(c) Annualized As noted from the data in the following table, the greatest portion of improvement in interest income during the first half of 2000 came as a result of changes in volume. At the same time, increases in interest expense were distributed fairly evenly between changes in volume and rate. The net result is an increase in net interest income, resulting from improvements in volumes in excess of declines caused by rate. The following table shows the effect of volume and rate changes on net interest income for the six months ended June 30, on a taxable equivalent basis, in thousands of dollars.

NONINTEREST INCOME Total noninterest income is up 37.2% over the second quarter of 1999, and 29.2% year to date over 1999, reflecting initiatives in a number of areas. All categories of noninterest income other than income from loan sales and servicing, increased from the same periods in 1999. Service charges on deposit accounts are 5.9% ahead of first quarter 2000 and 22.2% over 1999 year to date, as a result of continued deposit growth in transaction accounts and restructuring of the Company's deposit account product structure during mid-1999. Fee income in the Trust & Investment Group is up 36.7% over the same quarter of 1999 and up 38.0% year to date. Shifts in the mix of the types of accounts managed has increased fee income while assets under management have experienced modest growth. Income from loan sales and servicing continues to be depressed from previous periods, reflecting a decline in residential mortgages being sold in the secondary market. This decline results from a shift in client preference to variable rate loans, which the Bank retains in its portfolio. Mortgage loan refinancing has also declined from 1999 levels, resulting in fewer loans sold during 2000. In June, the Bank sold its portfolio of credit card loans. The sale of principal balances of $3,437,252 resulted in a net addition to noninterest income during the quarter of $307,834. Other income increased 35.0% year to date over the same period of 1999. NONINTEREST EXPENSES Noninterest expense is virtually flat from the first quarter of 2000, and showed modest increases over comparable periods of 1999. Total noninterest expense, excluding provision for loan losses, for the six months ended June 30, 2000 was 8.0% above the same period for 1999, reflecting continued growth and expansion of the Bank. At the same time, total noninterest expense increased just 4.8% over the second Page 13 14 quarter of 1999. The largest increases are seen in the compensation and occupancy expenses, reflecting the Company's continued growth and expansion in various markets. FEDERAL INCOME TAX There has been no significant change in the income tax position of the Company during the second quarter of 2000. The increase in federal income tax for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 as compared to the same periods for 1999 in the result of higher pre-tax income and slightly less tax exempt income in the 2000 periods as compared to the 1999 periods. NET INCOME Consolidated net income exceeded that of the second quarter of 1999 by 25.6%, and is ahead of 1999 year to date by 13.1%. Management anticipates that net income will continue to remain strong for the remainder of the year, although second quarter earnings were helped by non-recurring gains on the sale of the Bank's credit card portfolio as discussed above under "Noninterest Income." FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS Statements contained in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations include forward-looking statements that are based on management's beliefs, assumptions, current expectations, estimates and projections about the financial services industry, the economy, and about the Company itself. Words such as "anticipate," "believe," "determine," "estimate," "expect," "forecast," "intend," "is likely," "plan," "project," "opinion," variations of such terms, and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. The presentations and discussions of the provision and allowance for loan losses, and determinations as to the need for other allowances presented in this report are inherently forward-looking statements in that they involve judgements and statements of belief as to the outcome of future events. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties, and assumptions that are difficult to predict with regard to timing, extent, likelihood, and degree of occurrence. Therefore, actual results and outcomes may materially differ from what may be expressed or forecasted in such forward-looking statements. Internal and external factors that may cause such a difference include changes in interest rates and interest rate relationships; demand for products and services; the degree of competition by traditional and non-traditional competitors; changes in banking laws and regulations; changes in tax laws; changes in prices, levies, and assessments; the impact of technological advances; governmental and regulatory policy changes; the outcomes of pending and future litigation and contingencies; trends in customer behavior and customer ability to repay loans; software failure, errors or miscalculations; the ability of other companies on which the Company relies to be Year 2000 compliant; the ability of the Company to locate and correct all data sensitive computer code; and the vicissitudes of the national economy. The Company undertakes no obligation to update, amend or clarify forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. ITEM 3- QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK FUNDS MANAGEMENT AND INTEREST RATE RISK The composition of the Company's balance sheet consists of investments in interest earning assets (loans and investment securities) that are funded by interest bearing liabilities (deposits and borrowings). These financial instruments have varying levels of sensitivity to changes in market interest rates resulting in market risk. Bank policies place strong emphasis on stabilizing net interest margin, with the goal of providing a sustained level of satisfactory earnings. The Funds Management, Investment and Loan policies provide direction for the flow of funds necessary to supply the needs of depositors and borrowers. Management of interest sensitive assets and liabilities is also necessary to reduce interest rate risk during times of fluctuating interest rates. Page 14 15 A number of measures are used to monitor and manage interest rate risk, including interest sensitivity and income simulation analyses. An interest sensitivity model is the primary tool used to assess this risk with supplemental information supplied by an income simulation model. The simulation model is used to estimate the effect that specific interest rate changes would have on twelve months of pretax net interest income assuming an immediate and sustained up or down parallel change in interest rates of 200 basis points. Key assumptions in the models include prepayment speeds on mortgage related assets; cash flows and maturities of financial instruments held for purposes other than trading; changes in market conditions, loan volumes and pricing; and management's determination of core deposit sensitivity. These assumptions are inherently uncertain and, as a result, the models cannot precisely estimate net interest income or precisely predict the impact of higher or lower interest rates on net interest income. Actual results will differ from simulated results due to timing, magnitude, and frequency of interest rate changes and changes in market conditions. Based on the results of the simulation model as of June 30, 2000, the Company would expect a maximum potential reduction in net interest margin of less than 4% if market rates increased under an immediate and sustained parallel shift of 200 basis points. The Bank's interest sensitivity position remained substantially unchanged from the previous quarter. The Company's exposure to market risk is reviewed on a regular basis by the Funds Management Committee. The Committee's policy objective is to manage the Company's assets and liabilities to provide an optimum and consistent level of earnings within the framework of acceptable risk standards. The Funds Management Committee of the Bank is also responsible for evaluating and anticipating various risks other than interest rate risk. Those risks include prepayment risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Committee is made up of senior members of management, and continually monitors the makeup of interest sensitive assets and liabilities to assure appropriate liquidity, maintain interest margins and to protect earnings in the face of changing interest rates and other economic factors. The Funds Management policy of the Bank provides for a level of interest sensitivity which, Management believes, allows the Bank to take advantage of opportunities within the market relating to liquidity and interest rate risk, allowing flexibility without subjecting the Bank to undue exposure to risk. In addition, other measures are used to evaluate and project the anticipated results of Management's decisions.
