Management knows of no loans (other than those that are immaterial in amount) which have not been disclosed below which cause it to have doubts as to the ability of the borrowers to comply with the contractual loan terms, or which may have a material effect on the Company's balance sheet or results from operations. Non-performing assets consists of non-accrual loans, loans past due 90 or more days, restructured loans and real estate that has been acquired in full or partial satisfaction of loan obligations or upon foreclosure. As of September 30, 2003, other real estate owned consists of two properties. Management does not anticipate any material losses as the result of the disposal of these properties. The following table summarizes non-performing assets (dollars in thousands): September 30, December 31, 2003 2002 --------------- --------------- Non-accrual loans $ 1,599 $ 2,746 Loans past due 90 or more days 1,959 306 Renegotiated loans 835 907 --------------- --------------- Total non-performing loans 4,393 3,959 Other real estate owned 969 224 --------------- --------------- Total non-performing assets $ 5,362 $ 4,183 =============== =============== Total non-performing loans to total loans 1.40% 1.39% Total non-performing assets to total assets 1.31% 1.03% 10 NOTE 4 - ALLOWANCE FOR POSSIBLE LOAN LOSSES Activity in the allowance for possible loan losses is as follows (dollars in thousands): SEPTEMBER 30, DECEMBER 31, 2003 2002 --------------- --------------- Loan loss balance - Beginning of period $ 4,632 $ 5,585 Provision (reduction) -- (800) Loan losses (1,247) (2,162) Loan recoveries 688 2,009 --------------- --------------- Loan loss balance - End of period $ 4,073 $ 4,632 =============== =============== The allowance for possible loan losses is maintained at a level believed adequate by management to absorb potential losses from impaired loans as well as the remainder of the loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses is based upon periodic analysis of the portfolio, economic conditions and trends, historical credit loss experience, borrowers' ability to repay and collateral values. NOTE 5 - WORKFORCE REDUCTION Effective July 18, 2003, PSB Group, Inc. announced a reduction in the workforce of Peoples State Bank, its subsidiary, of 16 employees, or approximately 10% of the total work force. The reduction included three vice presidents and three vacant positions that will not be filled. The Company expects to realize annualized pre-tax savings of approximately $850,000 from the reduction in force and related operating expenses. Third quarter operating results were negatively impacted by a one-time pre-tax charge of approximately $132,000 for severance and other related costs. NOTE 6 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS - STOCK REDEMPTION Effective October 31, 2003, PSB Group, Inc. announced the resignation of Nels Olson II as a director of both PSB Group, Inc. and its subsidiary Peoples State Bank. Concomitant with his resignation, PSB Group, Inc. agreed to purchase all of his 263,118 shares of PSB Group, Inc. common stock for $23.3125 per share. 11 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION OVERVIEW PSB Group, Inc. (the "Company"), a bank holding company, was formed on February 28, 2003 for the purpose of owning all of the issued and outstanding common stock of Peoples State Bank (the "Bank"). Shareholders of the Bank exchanged each of their shares of stock in the Bank for three shares of stock in the holding company. The Bank was incorporated and chartered under the laws of the state of Michigan in 1909. We operated as a unit bank until July 20, 1992, when we opened our first branch office in Sterling Heights, Michigan. In May 1998, the Bank acquired Madison National Bank, Madison Heights, Michigan ("Madison"). Today we operate nine branches. We provide customary retail and commercial banking services to our customers, including checking and savings accounts, time deposits, safe deposit facilities, commercial loans, real estate mortgage loans, installment loans, IRAs and night depository facilities. Our deposits are insured by the FDIC to applicable legal limits and we are supervised and regulated by the FDIC and Michigan Office of Financial and Insurance Services. We provide a full range of retail and commercial banking services designed to meet the borrowing and depository needs of small and medium-sized businesses and consumers in local areas. Substantially all of our loans are to customers located within our service area. We have no foreign loans or highly leveraged transaction loans, as defined by the Federal Reserve Board ("FRB"). We conduct our lending activities pursuant to the loan policies adopted by our Board of Directors. These loan policies grant individual loan officers authority to make secured and unsecured loans in specific dollar amounts; senior officers or various loan committees must approve larger loans. Our management information systems and loan review policies are designed to monitor lending sufficiently to ensure adherence to our loan policies. We also offer a full range of deposit and personal banking services insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"), including (i) commercial checking and small business checking products, (ii) retirement accounts such as Individual Retirement Accounts ("IRA"), (iii) retail deposit services such as certificates of deposits, money market accounts, savings accounts, checking account products and Automated Teller Machines ("ATMs"), Point of Sale and other electronic services, and (iv) other personal miscellaneous services such as safe deposit boxes, foreign draft, foreign currency exchanges, night depository services, travelers checks, merchant credit cards, direct deposit of payroll, U.S. savings bonds, official bank checks and money orders. We also offer credit cards and internet banking. Full estate and trust services, insurance and investment advice are offered through a partnership with Bank of Bloomfield Hills, Bloomfield Hills, Michigan. Substantially all of our deposits are from local market areas surrounding each of our offices. Our net income is derived primarily from net interest income, which is the difference between interest earned on our loan and investment portfolios and our cost of funds, primarily interest paid on deposits and borrowings. The volume of and yields earned on loans and investments and the volume of and rates paid on deposits and borrowings determine net interest income. 12 FINANCIAL CONDITION Company assets consist of customer loans, investment securities, bank premises and equipment, cash and other operating assets. Total assets increased approximately $6 million, or 1.5% to $409 million at September 30, 2003 from $403 million at December 31, 2002. The balance of our investment securities decreased by approximately $22 million to $65.4 million at September 30, 2003 as compared to $87.5 million at December 31, 2002. The proceeds from this run-off, along with a $9 million increase in deposits, were used to increase our loan portfolio by $27 million to $313 million at September 30, 2003 and reduce our federal funds borrowings by $4 million. The allowance for loan losses decreased $559 thousand during the first nine months of 2003. As a percentage of total loans, the allowance was reduced to 1.30% at September 30, 2003 from 1.62% at December 31, 2002. Management believes this reserve is sufficient to meet anticipated future loan losses. Total liabilities increased by $5 million to $362 million at September 30, 2003 from $357 million at December 31, 2002. As mentioned above, this was mainly due to a $9 million, or 2.6% increase in total deposits to $349.5 million at September 30, 2003 from $340.8 million at December 31, 2002. Approximately $7 million of this increase was in non-interest bearing demand deposits. The increase in deposits was partially offset by a $3.9 million reduction in our Federal Funds borrowings. FINANCIAL RESULTS Three Months Ended September 30, 2003 Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2003 was $1.039 million compared to $1.417 million for the same period in 2002. Total interest income decreased $613 thousand in the third quarter 2003 compared to the third quarter 2002. Interest and fees on loans accounted for $217 thousand of the decrease, primarily due to the lower interest rate environment. Average loan balances in the third quarter 2003 were approximately $31 million higher than the third quarter 2002. However, the positive impact of the higher balances was more than offset by the negative impact of the lower interest rates, as higher yielding loans matured and were replaced by lower yielding loans and variable rate loans re-priced downward. Interest income on investment securities and federal funds sold decreased $396 thousand in the third quarter 2003 compared to the third quarter 2002. This decrease is due in part to the lower interest rate environment, but also because the average investment in securities and federal funds was about $24 million lower in the third quarter 2003 than the third quarter 2002. The decrease in interest income was partially offset by a $280 thousand decrease in interest expense in the third quarter 2003 compared to the third quarter 2002. This decrease was primarily due to the lower interest rate environment as average interest bearing deposits were relatively unchanged from the third quarter 2002 During the third quarter 2003 there was no provision for loan losses recorded. This compares to a $300 thousand negative provision that was recorded in the third quarter 2002. This was a major contributing factor in the difference between the net income recorded in the third quarter 2003 and the third quarter 2002. 13 Total other income was about $529 thousand higher in the third quarter 2003 than the third quarter 2002. Service charges related to a new overdraft protection product accounted for about $274 thousand of this increase. In addition, gains on the sale of mortgages and mortgage servicing rights increased $140 thousand in the third quarter 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. The increased gains were primarily the result of increased refinancing activity due to the low interest rate environment. Other loan related fees also increased $96 thousand in the third quarter 2003 over the same period in 2002. The increases in other income were partially offset by a $62 thousand decrease in the gain on the sale of securities in the third quarter 2003 as compared to the third quarter 2002. Total other operating expenses increased $436 thousand during the third quarter 2003 over the same period in 2002. Salaries and benefits accounted for about $205 thousand of this increase which included higher commissions related to increased mortgage closings, $41 thousand in increased health benefit expenses and $45 thousand in accelerated severance expenses related to the July workforce reduction. Occupancy expenses increased $101 thousand, including increased depreciation on equipment upgrades and expenses related to the two loan production offices that were opened this year. Other expenses increased $182 thousand including increased charge-offs related to the overdraft protection product, increased marketing expenses and increased single business tax accruals. Nine Months Ended September 30, 2003 Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 was $3.054 million compared to $3.988 million for the same period in 2002. Total interest income decreased $1.832 million in first nine months of 2003 compared to the first nine months of 2002. Interest and fees on loans accounted for $767 thousand of the decrease, primarily due to the lower interest rate environment. Year-to date average loan balances in 2003 were approximately $22 million higher than 2002. Again, the positive impact of the higher balances for the year-to date was more than offset by the negative impact of the lower interest rates, as higher yielding loans matured and were replaced by lower yielding loans and variable rate loans re-priced downward. Interest income on investment securities and federal funds sold decreased $1.065 million in the first nine months of 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. This decrease is due in part to the lower interest rate environment, but also because the average investment in securities and federal funds was about $19 million lower in the first nine months of 2003 than the first nine months of 2002. Most of this decrease, $13 million, was in the form of lower federal funds balances. The decrease in interest income was partially offset by a $1.275 million decrease in interest expense in the first nine months of 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. This decrease was primarily due to the lower interest rate environment, but a $6 million decrease in average interest bearing deposits in the first nine months of 2003 as compared to the same period in 2002 was also a contributing factor. Although non-performing loans increased to $4.393 million at September 30, 2003 from $3.959 million at December 31, 2002, management believes the loan loss allowance is sufficient to meet anticipated future losses. Therefore, there was no provision for loan losses recorded in 2003. This compares to the $800 thousand negative provision that was recorded in June 2002. This was a major contributing factor in the difference between the net income recorded in the first nine months of 2003 and the first nine months of 2002. 14 Total other income was about $1.342 million higher in the first nine months of 2003 than the same period in 2002. Service charges related to the new overdraft protection product accounted for about $770 thousand of this increase. In addition, year-to-date gains on the sale of mortgages and mortgage servicing rights increased $473 thousand in the first nine months of 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. The increased gains were primarily the result of increased refinancing activity due to the low interest rate environment. Total other operating expenses increased $1.288 million during the first nine months of 2003 over the same period in 2002. Salaries and benefits accounted for about $551 thousand of this increase, including $133 thousand in higher commissions related to increased mortgage closings, $168 thousand in increased cost of employee benefits and employment taxes and $45 thousand in accelerated severance expenses related to the July workforce reduction. Occupancy expenses increased $278 thousand, including increased depreciation on equipment upgrades, and expenses related to the two loan production offices that were opened this year. Legal and professional expenses were $97 thousand higher in the first nine months of 2003 than the first nine months of 2002, including a $96 thousand increase in consulting fees. Other expenses increased $362 thousand including an increase in legal settlements ($50 thousand), increased charge-offs related to the overdraft protection product ($71 thousand) and increased accruals for Michigan Single Business Taxes ($80 thousand). LIQUIDITY The Company manages its liquidity position with the objective of maintaining sufficient funds to respond to the needs of depositors and borrowers and to take advantage of earnings enhancement opportunities. In addition to the normal inflow of funds from core-deposit growth, together with repayments and maturities of loans and investments, the Company utilizes other short-term funding sources such as Federal Home Loan Bank advances and overnight federal funds purchases from correspondent banks. During the nine months ended September 30, 2003, $22.1 million in cash was provided by run-off of investment securities. This, plus $8.7 million in cash provided through increased deposits was used to pay off $3.9 million in federal funds borrowings and increase our loan portfolio by $27.9 million. In addition, we had a net outflow of $442 thousand for capital expenditures and paid $1.479 million in cash dividends during the period. During the nine months ended September 30, 2003, we experienced a net decrease of $255 thousand in cash and cash equivalents. CAPITAL RESOURCES Banks are expected to meet a minimum risk-based capital to risk-weighted assets ratio of 8%, of which at least one-half (4%) must be in the form of Tier 1 (core) capital. The remaining one-half may be in the form of Tier 1 or Tier 2 (supplemental) capital. The amount of loan loss allowance that may be included in capital is limited to 1.25% of risk-weighted assets.
