As of December 31, 1993, the Company adopted STATEMENTS OF FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS No. 115 (SFAS 115) "ACCOUNTING FOR CERTAIN INVESTMENTS IN DEBT AND EQUITY SECURITIES." Accordingly, investment securities available for sale at June 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996 are carried at market value. Adjustments up or down to market value are recorded as a separate component of equity, net of tax. Premium amortization and discount accretion are recognized as adjustments to interest income. Realized gains or losses on disposition are based on the net proceeds and the adjusted carrying amount of the securities sold, using the specific identification method. 5. As of January 1, 1996, the Company adopted SFAS No. 122. "Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights" which amends SFAS No. 65, "Accounting for Certain Mortgage Banking Activities." This statement required that the rights to service mortgage loans for others be recognized as separate assets regardless of how those rights were acquired. The impact on the company's financial position and the results of operation were not material for the six and three months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996. 6. On July 1, 1996, the Company acquired Four Seasons of Wis, Inc. ("Four Seasons"), a registered bank holding company, and its wholly owned subsidiary, The Bank. Effective July 1, 1996, Baylake Bank and The Bank were merged, and referred to herein as "Baylake Bank". The transaction is accounted for using the purchase method. 8 9 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS GENERAL The following sets forth management's discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial condition of Baylake Corp. ("Company") at June 30, 1997, and the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 and June 30, 1996. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Company's unaudited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included herein. On July 1, 1996, the Company acquired Four Seasons of Wis., Inc. ("Four Seasons") and its subsidiary The Bank (with branches in Manawa and King, Wisconsin) in a cash transaction totaling $13.875 million. On July 1, 1996, Four Seasons was dissolved and The Bank was merged into Baylake Bank. At the time of acquisition, The Bank had total assets of $55.8 million, loans of $12.2 million, deposits of $46.9 million and shareholders' equity of $8.4 million. This transaction has been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS For the three months ended June 30, 1997, net income declined $1,000, to $1.20 million, the same amount as the second quarter of 1996. The annualized return on average assets and return on average equity for the three months ended June 30, 1997, were 1.22% and 12.09%, respectively compared to 1.51% and 13.16%, respectively, for the same period a year ago. For the six months ended June 30, 1997, net income was $2.40 million, an increase of 1.1% from the $2.38 million earned during the first six months of 1996. The annualized return on average assets and return on average equity, were 1.23% and 12.22%, respectively, compared to 1.51% and 13.04%, respectively for the same period a year ago. The change in net income for the period is primarily due to improved net interest income and an increase in other income offset by increased other expenses. NET INTEREST INCOME Net interest income for the three months ended June 30, 1997 increased $522,000, or 14.4%, to $4.15 million from $3.63 million for the same period a year ago. Total interest income for the second quarter of 1997 increased $1.35 million, or 21.3%, to $7.69 million from $6.34 million for the second quarter of 1996, while 9 10 interest expense increased $827,000, or 30.5%, to $3.54 million from $2.71 million in the second quarter of 1996. These changes were primarily the result of a favorable increase in the average volume of earning assets offset by increased competition related to loan pricing, particularly in the commercial sector, and deposit pricing, primarily in time deposits. For the three months ended June 30, 1997, average earning assets increased $65.2 million, or 21.9%, when compared to the same period last year. The Company registered an increase in average loans of $47.5 million, or 21.0% for the second quarter of 1997 compared to the same period a year ago. For the six months ended June 30, 1997, average earning assets increased by $67.4 million or 23.0%, when compared to the same period last year. Loans have continued to grow as the Company registered an increase in average loans of $49.5 million, or 22.5%, for the first six months of 1997 compared to the same period in 1996. Loans have typically resulted in higher rates of interest payable to the Company then have investment securities. Net interest margin (on a federal tax-equivalent basis) for the three months ended June 30, 1997 decreased from 5.19% to 4.81% compared to a year ago. The average yield on interest earning assets amounted to 8.49% for the second quarter of 1997, representing a decrease of 28 basis points from the same period last year. Total loan yields decreased 9 basis points to 9.23%, while total investment yields increased 3 basis points to 7.16% as compared to the same period a year ago. The Company's average cost on interest-bearing deposit liabilities increased 8 basis points to 4.41% for the second quarter of 1997, while short-term borrowing costs increased 41 basis points to 5.81% comparing the two periods. The above factors contributed to a decrease in the Company's overall interest margin for the three months ended June 30, 1997. Net interest margin (on a federal tax-equivalent basis) for the first six months of 1997 declined to 4.88% from 5.07% for the same period last year. The average yield on interest-earning assets amounted to 8.75% for the first six months of 1997, representing a increase of 2 basis points over the same period last year. Total loan yields increased 6 basis points to 9.31% while investment securities increased 14 basis points to 7.14%. The Company's average cost on interest-bearing deposit liabilities increased 2 basis points to 4.36% for the first six months of 1997, while short-term borrowing costs increased 34 basis points to 5.69% comparing the two periods. The above factors contributed to a decline in the Company's overall interest margin for the first six months ended June 30, 1997. PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES The provision for loan losses for the three months ended June 30, 1997 increased $66,000, or 75.9%, to $153,000 from $87,000 for the second quarter a year ago. For the six months ended June 30, 1997, 10 11 the provision for loan losses increased $122,000, or 67.4%, to $303,000 from $181,000 for the same period last year. This increase has occurred primarily as a result of above average loan growth. Management believes that the current allowance is adequate in view of the present condition of the Company's loan portfolio. NON-INTEREST INCOME Total non-interest income increased $202,000, or 25.7%, to $988,000 for the second quarter of 1997, from $786,000 for the second quarter a year ago. This increase has occurred as a result of increased loan servicing fees, fees on other customer services and securities gains offset by decreased trust revenues. For the first six months of 1997, non-interest income has improved $135,000, or 8.3%, to 1.76 million from 1.63 million for the same period a year ago. Trust revenues decreased primarily as a result of increased trust business offset by the change in billing fee cycles from annual to quarterly which started in the first half of 1996. Loan servicing fees increased for two reasons. An increase in premiums of approximately $152,000 were realized as a result of loan sales in the secondary market. In addition there resulted a increase of approximately $18,700 recognized as a result of the implementation of SFAS No. 122 "ACCOUNTING FOR MORTGAGE SERVICING RIGHTS" comparing the first six months of 1997 with 1996. The increase in fees for other services to customers primarily resulted from increased service charges on deposit products. A decline in revenues of approximately $32,000 stemming from the operation of Karsten Resources, Inc. ("Karsten"), a hotel and restaurant business, account partially for the decrease in other income. NON-INTEREST EXPENSE Non-interest expense increased $656,000, or 25.1%, for the three months ended June 30, 1997 compared to the same period in 1996. Salaries and employee benefits showed the largest increase of $305,000 or 20.4%, due in part to additional employee expense resulting from operations in the Green Bay and Manawa regions. Normal salary increases account for the remaining increase in salaries and benefits. Increased occupancy and equipment expenses have also resulted due to the start up of operations in the Green Bay region and additional expense from the Manawa region. These expansion efforts have resulted in additional depreciation expense resulting from new building construction and past increased capital expenditures for equipment which were made to enhance the Company's technological capabilities. Other operating expense shows an increase of $98,000, or 15.5%, for the second quarter of 1997 primarily as a result of approximately $82,000 of goodwill amortized during the quarter as a result of the acquisition of Four Seasons. $17,000 of the increase resulting in other operating expense occurred as a result of the Karsten operation. The balance of the increase has occurred as a result of normal increases in 11 12 promotional expenses, supplies expense, and data services expense. The overhead ratio, which is computed by subtracting non-interest income from non-interest expense and dividing by average total assets, was 2.32% for the three months ended June 30, 1997 compared to 2.29% for the same period in 1996. Non-interest expense increased $1.35 million, or 26.7%, for the six months ended June 30, 1997, compared to the same period in 1996. Salaries and employee benefits showed an increase of $571,000, or 18.6%, primarily for the same reasons as listed previous, along with normal salary increases. The increase in occupancy and equipment expense occurred primarily as a result of expansion efforts into the Green Bay and Manawa regions. Other operating expense shows an increase of $205,000, or 17.5%, for the six months ended June 30, 1997 as compared to June 30, 1996. Approximately $163,000 of the increase is related to goodwill amortization related to the Four Seasons acquisition. The overhead ratio was 2.39% for the six months ended June 30, 1997 compared with 2.19% for the same period in 1996. PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES The Company's provision for income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 1997 increased $3,000, or .6%, to $511,000 from $508,000 for the same period one year ago. The increase in income tax provision was due to increased taxable income. The provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 1997 decreased $13,000, or 1.3%, to $999,000 from $1.01 million for the same period one year ago. The decrease in income tax provision was due to decreased taxable income. BALANCE SHEET ANALYSIS LOAN PORTFOLIO At June 30, 1997, total loans increased $17.6 million, or 6.8%, to $278.5 million from $260.9 million at December 31, 1996. The change in loan mix in the Company's portfolio resulted from an increase in commercial loans to $160.0 million at June 30, 1997 compared to $151.3 million at December 31, 1996. In addition, real estate construction loans increased to $11.6 million at June 30, 1997 compared to $11.4 million at December 31, 1996 and real estate-mortgage loans increased to $93.2 million at June 30, 1997 compared to $83.5 million at December 31, 1996. NON-PERFORMING ASSETS At June 30, 1997, non-performing assets amounted to $4.33 million compared to $4.70 million at December 31, 1996. Non-performing assets at June 30, 1997 were 1.07% of total assets compared with 1.19% at December 31, 1996. $531,000 of this decrease stems from a paydown resulting from sale of collateral on a commercial credit. 12 13 The ratio of non-performing assets to total loans at June 30, 1997 was 1.55% compared to 1.80% at December 31, 1996. ALLOWANCE FOR POSSIBLE LOAN LOSSES At June 30, 1997, the allowance for loan losses increased $260,000 from year end 1996 to $3.15 million. Although loans have continued to grow at an above average rate, the allowance for loan losses as a percent of total loans has improved slightly. The allowance is at a level currently believed to be acceptable by management. At June 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996, the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans were at 1.13% and 1.11%, respectively. INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO At June 30, 1997, the investment portfolio decreased $8.0 million, or 8.1%, to $91.1 million from $99.1 million at December 31, 1996. At June 30, 1997, the investment portfolio represented 22.5% of total assets compared with 25.1% at December 31, 1996. The decline in total investments occurred as proceeds from matured investment securities were used to fund loan demand. DEPOSITS Total deposits at June 30, 1997 decreased $3.9 million, or 1.2%, to $331.0 million from $327.2 million at December 31, 1996. Non-interest bearing deposits at June 30, 1997 decreased $2.0 million, or 4.8%, to $40.3 million from $42.3 million at December 31, 1996. Interest-bearing deposits at June 30, 1997 increased $5.9 million, or 2.1%, to $290.8 million from $284.9 million at December 31, 1996. Time deposits over $100,000 show an increase of $17.6 million resulting primarily from attracting various municipal deposits. Overall deposits for the first six months tend to slightly decline/increase as a result of the seasonality of the customer base as they drawdown deposits during the early first half of the year in anticipation of the summer tourist season. SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS Total short-term borrowings at June 30, 1997 increased $5.1 million to $29.0 million from $23.8 million at December 31, 1996. The increase has primarily occurred as a result of the acquisition of Four Seasons totaling $13.8 million and additional demands caused by increases in the loan portfolio where customer demand remains quite strong in the markets that the Company serves. In addition, the seasonality of the customer base influences the Company's balance sheet as deposits normally decrease and loan demand increases during the early part of the year requiring the Company to meet these needs with other short term funding. LIQUIDITY As shown in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Cashflows for 13 14 the six months ended June 30, 1997, cash and cash equivalents decreased $131,000 during the period to $13.7 million at June 30, 1997. The decrease primarily reflected $3.7 million in net cash provided by operating activities and $7.0 million provided by financing activities offset by $10.8 million used in investing activities. Net cash provided by operating activities consisted of the Company's net income for the periods increased by adjustments for non-cash expenditures. Net cash used in investing activities consisted of a net increase in loans plus necessary capital expenditures offset by a net decrease in investment securities. Net cash provided by financing activities resulted primarily from a net decrease in short term deposits and dividends paid offset by a net increase in time deposits and borrowed funds. Strong loan demand for the first six months of 1997 continues to remain solid, thereby effecting an increase in short term funding requirements through overnight correspondent fed funds purchases. A component of the Company's strategy to enter additional markets will continue to concentrate on core deposit growth and utilize other funding sources such as the Federal Home Loan Bank so as to reduce reliance on short-term funding needs. The Company manages its liquidity to provide adequate funds to support the borrowing requirements and deposit flow of its customers. Management views its liquidity as the ability to raise cash at reasonable costs or with a minimum of loss and as a measure of balance sheet flexibility to react to marketplace, regulatory and competitive changes. The primary sources of the Company's liquidity are marketable assets maturing within one year. The Company attempts, when possible, to match relative maturities of assets and liabilities, while maintaining the desired net interest margin. Although the percentage of earning assets represented by loans is increasing, management believes that liquidity is adequate to support anticipated borrowing requirements and deposit flows. INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY The following table entitled "Asset and Liability Maturity Repricing Schedule" indicates that the Company is slightly liability gap sensitive, although management believes that a range of plus or minus 15% (from 100% matching) within a one year pricing schedule is acceptable. The analysis considers regular savings, money market deposits and NOW accounts to be rate sensitive within three months. All other earning categories including loans and investments as well as other paying liability categories such as time deposits are scheduled according to their contractual maturities. Also, Baylake Bank considers its savings and NOW accounts to be core deposits and relatively non-price sensitive, as it believes it could make repricing adjustments for these types of accounts in small increments without a material decrease in balances. Interest rate sensitivity analysis can be performed in several different ways. The traditional method of measuring interest sensitivity is called "gap" analysis. This mismatch between asset 14 15 and liability repricing characteristics in specific time intervals is referred to as "interest rate sensitivity gap." If more liabilities than assets reprice in a given time interval a liability gap position exists. In general, liability sensitive gap positions in a declining interest rate environment increases net interest income. Alternatively asset sensitive positions, where assets reprice more quickly than liabilities, negatively impact the net interest income in a declining rate environment. In the event of an increasing rate environment, opposite results would occur in that a liability sensitive gap position would decrease net interest income and an asset sensitivity gap position would increase net interest income. The sensitivity of net interest income to changing interest rates can be reduced by matching the repricing characteristics of assets and liabilities. For the time frame within three months as of June 30, 1997, rate sensitive liabilities exceeded rate sensitive assets by $73.5 million, or a ratio of rate sensitive assets to rate sensitive liabilities of 66.3%. For the next time frame of four to six months, rate sensitive liabilities exceeded rate sensitive assets by $2.2 million, or a ratio of rate sensitive assets to rate sensitive liabilities of 92.3%. For all assets and liabilities priced within a one year time frame, the cumulative ratio of rate sensitive assets to rate sensitive liabilities was 70.3%, which is outside the range of plus or minus 15% deemed acceptable by management. Management is presently reviewing other funding sources so as to decrease the reliance on short term funding needs. An application to the Federal Home Loan Bank has been approved and we are presently evaluating various funding strategies that the Federal Home Loan Bank can provide. Management continually review its interest risk position through its committee processes. Managements' philosophy is to maintain a relatively matched rate sensitive asset and liability position, within the range described above, in order to provide earnings stability in the event of significant interest rate changes. 15 16 ASSET AND LIABILITY MATURITY REPRICING SCHEDULE AS OF JUNE 30, 1997 Within Four to Seven to One Year Over Three Six Twelve to Five Five (In Thousands) Months Months Months Years Years Total --------- --------- --------- ---------------- ------- -------- Earning Assets: Investment Securities $ 5,232 $ 2,837 $ 4,932 $ 46,610 $31,494 $ 91,105 Federal funds sold 0 0 Loans and Leases: Variable Rate 115,715 0 0 115,715 Fixed Rate 23,624 23,494 27,624 80,817 6,854 162,413 --------- --------- --------- ---------- ------- -------- Total Loans and Leases $ 139,339 $ 23,494 $ 27,624 $ 80,817 $ 6,854 $278,128 --------- --------- --------- ---------- ------- -------- Total Earning Assets $ 144,571 $ 26,331 $ 32,556 $ 127,427 $38,348 $369,233 ========= ========= ========= ========== ======= ======== Interest Bearing Liabilities: NOW Accounts $ 38,285 $ $ $ $ $ 38,285 Saving Deposits 85,326 85,326 Time Deposits 65,494 28,490 42,692 30,407 62 167,145 Borrowed Funds 28,988 53 0 211 106 29,358 --------- --------- --------- ---------- ------- -------- Total Interest Bearing Liabilities $ 218,093 $ 28,543 $ 42,692 $ 30,618 $ 168 $320,114 ========= ========= ========= ========== ======= ======== Interest Sensitivity GAP (within periods) $ (73,522) $ (2,212) $ (10,136) $ 96,809 $38,180 $ 49,119 Cumulative Interest Sensitivity GAP (73,522) (75,734) (85,870) 10,939 $49,119 Ratio of Cumulative Interest Sensitivity GAP to Rate Sensitive Assets -19.91% -20.51% -23.26% 2.96% 13.30% Ratio of Rate Sensitive Assets to Rate Sensitive Liabilities 66.29% 92.25% 76.26% 416.18% --- Cumulative Ratio of Rate Sensitive Assets to Rate Sensitive Liabilities 66.29% 69.29% 70.32% 103.42% 115.34% 16 17 CAPITAL RESOURCES At June 30, 1997, stockholders' equity increased $1.4 million, or 3.5%, to $40.6 million from $39.2 million at December 31, 1996.
