In the opinion of management of the Registrant, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all the adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial condition of the Registrant as of March 31, 1996 and December 31, 1995, and the results of operations for the three-month periods ended March 31, 1996 and 1995. 2. Management's assessment of the allowance for loan losses is based on an evaluation of the loan portfolio, recent loss experience, current economic conditions and other pertinent factors. Loans on non-accrual status, past due more than 90 days, or restructured amounted to $2,527,000 at March 31, 1996, and $2,560,000 at December 31, 1995. (See Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations). 3. The provision for income taxes represents federal income tax expense calculated using annualized rates on taxable income generated during the respective periods. 4. The results of operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 1996, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. 6 8 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION This section presents Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operation for the Registrant and its bank subsidiaries (the "Banks"). Its purpose is to provide additional information that may be necessary to assess the consolidated financial statements contained elsewhere in this report. This section should be read in conjunction with the Registrant's 1995 Annual Report on Form 10-K. FINANCIAL CONDITION SUMMARY The Banks originated real estate mortgage loans totaling $43.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 1996, an increase from $22.5 million during the same period of 1995. The increase in real estate mortgage loans originated principally reflects two loan production offices that were established at the end of the first quarter of 1995. Despite this increase in real estate mortgage loans originated, total loans, excluding loans held for sale ("Portfolio Loans"), grew by only $1.0 million. An increase in the rate of prepayments on existing loans combined with a shift in consumer demand to fixed-rate obligations limited the increase in total loans. (See "ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT.") The $13.9 million increase in total deposits may be attributed to the seasonal cash management needs of the municipal depositors that are served by the Banks. Management intends to fund new Portfolio Loans as well as the anticipated decline in such municipal deposits with non deposit funds, including advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB"). (See "ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT" and "LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES.") ASSET QUALITY Management believes that its decentralized structure provides the Banks with important advantages in serving the credit needs of its principal markets. Although the Management and Boards of Directors of each of the Banks retain authority and responsibility for all credit decisions, the Banks have adopted uniform underwriting standards. Management further believes that the centralization of credit services ensures the consistent application of such underwriting standards and provides the requisite controls that are consistent with the needs of the Registrant's decentralized structure. Total non-performing assets declined by $254,000 during the three-month period to $3,066,000 at March 31, 1996. During the period, however, non-accrual loans increased by $197,000 to $2,083,000. Residential real estate mortgage loans account for the increase in non-accrual loans and Management does not believe that the increase represents a significant increase in the risk of loss. 7 9 NON-PERFORMING ASSETS March 31, December 31, 1996 1995 ---------- ---------- Non-accrual loans $2,083,000 $1,886,000 Loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing interest 199,000 427,000 Restructured loans 245,000 247,000 ---------- ---------- Total non-performing loans 2,527,000 2,560,000 Other real estate 539,000 760,000 ---------- ---------- Total non-performing assets $3,066,000 $3,320,000 ---------- ---------- As a percent of total loans Non-performing loans 0.60% 0.61% Non-performing assets 0.73% 0.79% Impaired loans totaled approximately $2,300,000 at March 31, 1996. In addition to certain non-performing loans contained in the table above, impaired loans include commercial and agricultural loans totaling $900,000 that have been separately identified as impaired. During the three months ended March 31, 1996, the Banks recognized interest income of approximately $40,000 on an average investment of $2,800,000 in such impaired loans. The provision for loan losses totaled $207,000 during the three months ended March 31, 1996, compared to $159,000 during the comparable period of 1995. During the three-month period in 1996, loans charged against the allowance, net of recoveries, were $83,000, compared to $66,000, a year earlier. On an annual basis, loans charged against the allowance, net of recoveries, were equal to 0.08% of average portfolio loans in both periods. ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES Three months ended March 31, 1995 1994 ---------- ---------- Balance at beginning of period $5,243,000 $5,054,000 Additions (deduction) Provision charged to operating expense 207,000 159,000 Recoveries credited to allowance 82,000 117,000 Loans charged against the allowance (165,000) (183,000) ---------- ---------- Balance at end of period $5,367,000 $5,147,000 ---------- ---------- Net loans charged against the allowance to average Portfolio Loans (annualized) 0.08% 0.08% Allowance for loan losses as a percent of non-performing loans 212% 182% 8 10 Management's assessment of the allowance for loan losses is based on the composition of the loan portfolio, an evaluation of specific credits, historical loss experience as well as the level of non-performing and impaired loans. At March 31, 1996, approximately 39% of the allowance for loan losses was allocated to specific loans or loan portfolios compared to 45% at December 31, 1995. ALLOCATION OF THE ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES March 31, 1996 December 31, 1995 ------------------------ ------------------------ Percent of Percent of Allowance Loans to Allowance Loans to Amount Total Loans Amount Total Loans ---------- ------------ ---------- ------------ Commercial and agricultural $1,451,000 26.3% $1,612,000 26.0% Real estate mortgage 118,000 53.8 162,000 54.0 Installment 509,000 19.9 597,000 20.0 Unallocated 3,289,000 2,872,000 ---------- ----- ---------- ----- Total $5,367,000 100.0% $5,243,000 100.0% ---------- ----- ---------- ----- LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Management views its ability to profitably deploy capital or otherwise maintain financial leverage as a prerequisite to the Registrant's continued success. Management's strategies to maintain financial leverage ("Leverage Strategies") include the acquisition of other financial institutions as well as the Banks' ability to profitably fund Portfolio Loans with advances from the FHLB and other non-deposit funding sources. (See "PENDING ACQUISITION" and "ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT.") The Registrant's dividend policies, are also important components of Management's Leverage Strategies. CAPITAL RATIOS March 31, 1996 December 31, 1995 -------------- ----------------- Equity capital 8.14% 7.97% Tangible equity capital 7.76 7.58 Primary capital 8.96 8.78 Tangible primary capital 8.58 8.39 Risk-based capital 13.15 12.75 Notwithstanding a $237,000 decline in net unrealized gains on securities available for sale, after consideration of related taxes, shareholders' equity increased by $1.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 1996. The increase reflects the retention of earnings as well as the value of common shares issued pursuant to the Registrant's Incentive Share Grant Plan 9 11 ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT The retention of fixed-rate real estate mortgage loans is not consistent with Management's' Leverage Strategies or the Banks' asset/liability needs. Accordingly, the majority of such loans are sold to mitigate exposure to changes in interest rates. Adjustable-rate and balloon real estate mortgage loans may, however, be profitably funded with FHLB advances and the retention of such loans has been a principal focus of Management's Leverage Strategies. (See "Non interest income".) Consumer preference for fixed or adjustable-rate real estate mortgage loans is influenced by the slope of the yield curve as well as the absolute level of interest rates. During the recent interest rate environment, fixed-rate financing has been competitive with fully-indexed adjustable rate loans. Accordingly, consumer demand has shifted to fixed-rate loans and prepayments on the Banks' portfolios of adjustable-rate and balloon loans have also increased due to refinancing activity. The Bank's competitive position within many of the markets served by the branch networks limits the ability to materially increase deposits without adversely impacting the weighted-average cost of core deposits. Accordingly, the Banks continue to employ pricing tactics that are intended to enhance the value of core deposits and rely on strategies that utilize federal funds and other borrowings, principally advances from the FHLB to fund increases in Portfolio Loans. (See "Net interest income".) At March 31, 1996, advances from the FHLB totaled $98.0 million. The Banks' maintain diversified investment portfolios that are consistent with Management's Leverage Strategies and the asset/liability and liquidity needs of the Banks. Such portfolios are comprised of securities issued by the U.S. Treasury and government sponsored agencies as well as obligations of states and political subdivisions and mortgage-backed securities. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS SUMMARY Net income totaled $1,890,000 during the three months ended March 31, 1996. The 21.5% increase from $1,556,000 during the comparable period of 1995 is the result of increases in net interest income and non-interest income that were partially offset by increases in non-interest expense and federal income tax expense. 10 12 Key performance ratios for the three-month periods ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, are set forth below. KEY PERFORMANCE RATIOS Three months ended March 31, 1996 1995 -------- -------- Return on Average assets 1.29% 1.23% Average equity 15.83 15.22 Earnings per common share $.69 $.57 NET INTEREST INCOME Net interest income totaled $7,371,000 during the three months ended March 31, 1996. The 13% increase from $6,523,000 during the comparable period of 1995 principally reflects an increase in average earning assets that resulted from implementation of Management's Leverage Strategies. Average earning assets during those same periods were equal to $558,908,000 and $481,502,000, respectively. NET INTEREST INCOME AND SELECTED RATIOS Three months ended March 31, 1996 March 31, 1995 -------------- -------------- Average earning assets (In thousands) $558,908 $481,502 As a percent of average earning assets Tax equivalent interest income 9.09% 8.97% Interest expense 3.61 3.28 Tax equivalent net interest income 5.48 5.69 Average earning assets as a percent of average assets 94.83% 93.97% Free-funds ratio 11.89 11.59 An increase in Portfolio Loans and loans held for sale as a percent of average earning assets also had a positive impact on net interest income. During the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, Portfolio Loans and loans held for sale were equal to 77.7% and 72.6% of average earning assets, respectively. Net interest income was equal to 5.48% of average earning assets during the three-month period in 1996 compared to 5.69% during the comparable period of 1995. The 21 basis point 11 13 decline reflects the average cost of advances from the FHLB that have been utilized to fund the implementation of Management's Leverage Strategies. NON-INTEREST INCOME Non-interest income totaled $1,224,000 during the three months ended March 31, 1996. The $509,000 increase from $715,000 during the comparable period in 1995 is principally a result of a $437,000 increase in net gains on the sale of real estate mortgage loans. Increases in service charges on deposit accounts and other income also contributed to the increase in non-interest income. Net gains on the sale of real estate mortgage loans totaled $441,000 during the three months ended March 31, 1996, compared to $4,000 during the comparable period of 1995. Although the majority of the increase in such net gains reflects favorable economic conditions and an increase in loans sold, Management attributes approximately 35% of the increase to the impact of SFAS #122 and the sale of related servicing rights on loans totaling approximately $9.2 million. A year earlier the related servicing rights were sold on loans totalling approximately $1.0 million. (See "STATEMENTS OF FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS".) Three months ended March 31 1996 1995 ---------------------- Real estate mortgage loan originations 43,742,000 22,514,000 Real estate mortgage loan sales 29,518,000 7,064,000 Net gains on the sale of real estate mortgage loans 441,000 4,000 Net gains as a percent of real estate mortgage loans sold 1.49% .06% The volume of loans sold is dependent upon the Banks' ability to originate real estate mortgage loans as well as consumer demand for fixed-rate loans. (See "ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT.") Net gains on the sale of loans are also dependent upon economic and competitive factors as well as the Banks' ability to effectively manage exposure to changes in interest rates. The Banks realized gross losses of $51,000 on the sale of securities available for sale with a market value of $3,566,000 during the three-month period in 1996. The Banks did not realize gains on the sale of any such securities during that period. During the comparable period in 1995, the Banks realized net losses of $68,000 on the sale of securities available for sale with a market value of $3,055,000. Future sales of securities available for sale will be dependent upon Management's assessment of reinvestment opportunities and the Banks' asset/liability management needs. (See "ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT.") NON-INTEREST EXPENSE Net of a reduction in FDIC insurance assessments totaling $182,000, total non-interest expense increased by $789,000 to $5,707,000 during the three months ended March 31, 1996, from the comparable period in 1995. The increase principally reflects the costs associated with the 12 14 origination of real estate mortgage loans. Management estimates that such costs, including commissions and loan production offices that were established during 1995, account for more than 60% of the increase in total non-interest expense. Costs associated with new branch facilities, a write down of other real estate as well as the introduction of the new "EZ Money" check card and the related ATM conversion also contributed to the increase in non-interest expense. PENDING ACQUISITION On February 5, 1996, the Registrant announced that it had executed a definitive agreement to acquire the outstanding common stock of North Bank Corporation ("NBC"). NBC had total assets of $152 million at March 31, 1996. In addition to 10 offices serving seven counties in north-east Michigan, NBC's banking subsidiary operates First Central Mortgage Corporation in Saginaw. The following summarizes certain proforma information as of March 31, 1996: Assets $748,000,000 Portfolio Loans 508,000,000 Deposits 555,000,000 Shareholders' equity 48,471,000 Equity capital ratio 6.48% Tangible equity capital ratio 5.35% Estimated cash consideration based on NBC's March 31, 1996 financial statements totals approximately $16.25 million and goodwill is expected to total approximately $6.5 million. The transaction is subject to regulatory and shareholder approval and will likely be completed during June of 1996. STATEMENTS OF FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 122, "Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights," ("SFAS #122") effective January 1, 1996. SFAS #122 requires the Banks recognize as separate assets the rights to service mortgage loans for others that have been acquired through either a purchase or origination of a loan. The fair value of capitalized originated mortgage servicing rights has been determined based on market value quotes for similar servicing. These mortgage servicing rights are amortized in proportion to and over the period of estimated net loan servicing income. SFAS #122 also require the Banks to assess these mortgage servicing rights for impairment based on the fair value of those rights. For purposes of measuring impairment, the risk characteristics used by the Banks include the underlying loans' interest rates, term of loan and loan types. The Banks capitalized approximately $67,000 of originated servicing rights during the three months ended March 31, 1996, of which approximately $4,000 has been amortized. 13 15 The Company also adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," ("SFAS #123"), effective January 1, 1996. SFAS #123 encourages companies to adopt a fair value method of accounting for stock compensation plans. Those companies not adopting a fair value method are required to make pro-forma disclosures of net income and earnings per share, on an annual basis, as if they had adopted the fair value accounting method.
