NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION The consolidated financial statements of Sistersville Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company"), include its wholly-owned subsidiary, First Federal Savings Bank (the "Bank"). All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and, therefore, do not necessarily include all information that would be included in audited financial statements. The information furnished reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2003. These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated statements as of and for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002, and related notes which are included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB (file no. 0-22535). NOTE 2 - RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS The FASB issued SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," which addresses financial accounting and reporting for acquired goodwill and other intangible assets and supersedes APB Opinion No. 17, "Intangible Assets," but it does carry forward some guidance from that statement. This statement requires that an intangible asset that is acquired either individually or with a group of other assets (but not those acquired in a business combination) shall be initially recognized and measured based on its fair value. Under SFAS No. 142, goodwill is not amortized and intangible assets with a finite useful life are amortized and those intangible assets with an infinite life are not amortized. This statement is generally effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, to all goodwill and other intangible assets recognized in an entity's statement of financial position at the beginning of that fiscal year, regardless of when those previously recognized assets were initially recognized. The provisions of this statement shall be initially applied at the beginning of a fiscal year; retroactive application is not permitted. The adoption of SFAS No. 142 did not have a material impact on the Company. The FASB recently issued SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations," which addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs. This statement requires an entity to recognize the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. Initial application of this statement is as of the beginning of an entity's fiscal year. Management does not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 143 will have a material impact on the Company. The FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." SFAS No. 144 supercedes SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed," and the Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30, "Reporting the Results of Operations-Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions," and amends Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, "Consolidated Financial Statements." This statement is generally effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2001, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of SFAS No. 144 did not have a material impact on the Company. The FASB also issued SFAS No. 145, "Rescission of SFAS No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of SFAS No. 13, and Technical Corrections." This Statement rescinds SFAS No. 4, "Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishments of Debt," and an amendment of that Statement, SFAS No. 64, "Extinguishments of Debt made to Satisfy Sinking-Fund Requirements." This Statement also rescinds SFAS No. 44, "Accounting for Intangible Assets of Motor Carriers." This Statement amends SFAS No. 13, "Accounting for Leases," to eliminate the inconsistency between the required accounting for sale-leaseback transactions and the required accounting for certain lease modifications that have economic effects that are similar to sale-leaseback transactions. This Statement also amends other existing authoritative pronouncements to make various technical corrections, clarify meanings, or describe their 9 applicability under changed conditions. This statement is generally effective for financial statements issued on or after May 15, 2002. The adoption of SFAS No. 144 did not have a material impact on the Company. The FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities." This Statement requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized and measured initially at fair value when the liability is incurred. This statement nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 94-3, which required the recognition of a liability for an exit cost at the date of an entity's commitment to an exit plan. The effective date of this Statement is for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002, with early application encouraged. Management believes the adoption of this Statement will not have a material impact on the Company. 10 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS Comparison of Financial Condition at September 30, 2002, and March 31, 2002 Total assets increased by $4.9 million to $45.8 million at September 30, 2002, from $40.9 million at March 31, 2002. Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $1.4 million to $3.4 million at September 30, 2002, from $4.8 million at March 31, 2002. The decrease represented the outflow of cash from the increase in loan production, payment of dividends, and the purchase of available-for-sale securities, office properties and equipment, and shares for treasury offset by the inflow of cash from operating activities, customers' investment of funds in deposit accounts, proceeds from the maturity or call of available-for-sale securities, and principal collected on mortgage-backed securities. Investment securities increased $6.1 million from $3.7 million at March 31, 2002, to $9.8 million at September 30, 2002. The increase was the direct result of the purchase of $4.5 million in U.S. agency obligations and $2.6 million in mortgage-backed securities offset by the call of U.S. agency obligations of $719,000 and the principal collected on mortgage-backed securities of $166,000. Net loans receivable was relatively unchanged at $30.3 million at September 30, 2002. Total liabilities increased $5.1 million to $36.9 million at September 30, 2002, from $31.8 million at March 31, 2002. The increase was the direct result of an increase in customer deposits of $5.1 million from $31.3 million at March 31, 2002, to $36.4 million at September 30, 2002. The increase in deposits is attributable to the relatively stable interest rates offered by the Bank on deposit accounts as compared to alternative investment products. Accrued interest payable and other liabilities increased $85,000 to $219,000 at September 30, 2002, from $134,000 at March 31, 2002. The increase was attributable to the recognition of $87,000 in accrued compensation expense for the implementation of the First Federal Savings Bank Directors Consultation and Retirement Plan, effective July 1, 2002. This plan was implemented to encourage Board of Director participation and service to the Bank, and following retirement, to encourage such directors to continue to serve the Bank as a consulting director for a period of time thereafter. Stockholders' equity decreased by $243,000, from $9.1 million at March 31, 2002, to $8.8 million at September 30, 2002. The decrease was attributable to the payment of dividends of $94,000 and purchase of shares for treasury of $392,000, offset by net income of $161,000 and amortization of the ESOP and RSP of $83,000. Comparison of the Results of Operations for the Three Months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 Net income increased by $4,000, or 5.7%, from net income of $75,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2001, to net income for the three months ended September 30, 2002, of $79,000. Interest and dividend income increased $68,000, 10.7%, from $634,000 at September 30, 2001, to $702,000 at September 30, 2002. The increase is attributed to the increase in interest on investments of $70,000, or 165.4%. The increase in interest on investments was due to the increase in the average investments of $5.9 million, from $4.7 million for the three-month period ended September 30, 2001, to $10.6 million for the three-month period ended September 30, 2002. Interest expense decreased by $1,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2002, to $286,000. The decrease was attributable to the decrease in Federal Home Loan Bank advance interest expense of $11,000 for which no borrowing from the Federal Home Loan Bank existed during the three months ended September 30, 2002. This was offset by an increase in interest expense on deposits of $10,000, or 3.9%, from $276,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2001, to $286,000 for the same period ending September 30, 2002. The increase in interest expense on deposits was the direct result of an increase in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits of $10.5 million, from $24.5 million for the three-month period ended September 30, 2001, to $35.0 million for the same period in 2002, offset by the 122 basis point decrease in the cost of funds from 4.49% for the three months ended September 30, 2001, to 3.27% for the three months ended September 30, 2002. Management regularly performs an analysis to identify the inherent risk of loss in its loan portfolio. This analysis includes evaluation of concentrations of credit, past loss experience, current economic conditions, amount and composition of the loan portfolio (including loans being specifically monitored by management), estimated fair value of underlying collateral, loan commitments outstanding, delinquencies, and other factors. Based on this analysis, management established an allowance for loan losses. The allowance for loan losses is adjusted periodically by a provision for loan losses, which is charged to operations based on management's evaluation of the losses that may be incurred in the Bank's portfolio. The provision for loan losses increased by $300 for the three months ended September 30, 2002, as compared to the same three months ended September 30, 2001. 11 The Bank will continue to monitor its allowance for loan losses and make future additions to the allowance through the provision for loan losses as economic conditions dictate. Although the Bank maintains its allowance for loan losses at a level that it considers to be adequate to provide for the inherent risk of loss in its loan portfolio, there can be no assurance that future losses will not exceed estimated amounts or that additional provisions for loan losses will not be required in future periods. In addition, the Bank's determination as to the amount of its allowance for loan losses is subject to review by its primary federal regulator, the Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS"), as part of its examination process, which may result in the establishment of an additional allowance based on the judgment of the OTS after a review of the information available at the time of the OTS examination. Non-interest income increased by $99,000 to $112,000 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2002, from $13,000 for the same period in 2001. The increase was due to the gain on sale and call of available-for-sale securities in the amount of $91,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2002, which did not occur during the three months ended September 30, 2001. Non-interest expense increased by $130,000, or 47.3%, to $407,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2002, from $277,000 for the same period in 2001. Compensation and employee benefits increased by $104,000, or 66.9%, to $259,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2002, from $155,000 for the same period in 2001. The increase in compensation and employee benefits was attributable to the recognition of $87,000 in compensation expense relating to the implementation of the First Federal Savings Bank Directors Consultation and Retirement Plan, effective July 1, 2002. The increase in compensation and employee benefits was also attributable to an increase in pension expense in the amount of $8,000. Income tax expense increased by $32,000, from $9,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2001, to $41,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2002. Comparison of the Results of Operations for the Six Months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 Net income increased by $36,000, or 28.2%, from net income of $125,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2001, to net income for the six months ended September 30, 2002, of $161,000. Interest and dividend income increased $155,000, or 12.6%, from $1.2 million for the six months ended September 30, 2001, to $1.4 million for the six months ended September 30, 2002. The increase is attributed to the increase in interest on loans of $57,000, or 5.1%, and the increase in interest on investments of $102,000, or 118.4%. The increase in interest on loans is attributed to the average balance on loans increasing by $2.5 million to $30.6 million for the six-month period ended September 30, 2002, from $28.1 million for the same period in 2001. The increase in interest on investments was due to the increase in the average investments of $5.2 million, from $4.5 million for the six-month period ended September 30, 2001, to $9.7 million for the six-month period ended September 30, 2002, offset by the 77 basis point decrease in the average yield from 4.05% for the six months ended September 30, 2001, to 3.28% for the six months ended September 30, 2002 Interest expense increased by $5,000, or .8%, for the six months ended September 30, 2002, to $569,000, from $564,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2001. The increase was attributable an increase in interest expense on deposits of $16,000, or 2.9%, from $553,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2001, to $569,000 for the same period ending September 30, 2002. The increase in interest expense on deposits was the direct result of an increase in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits of $9.4 million, from $24.2 million for the six-month period ended September 30, 2001, to $33.6 million for the same period in 2002, offset by the 119 basis point decrease in the cost of funds from 4.57% for the six months ended September 30, 2001, to 3.38% for the six months ended September 30, 2002. The increase in interest expense on deposits was offset by the decrease in Federal Home Loan Bank advance interest expense of $11,000 for which no borrowing from the Federal Home Loan Bank existed during the six months ended September 30, 2002. Management regularly performs an analysis to identify the inherent risk of loss in its loan portfolio. This analysis includes evaluation of concentrations of credit, past loss experience, current economic conditions, amount and composition of the loan portfolio (including loans being specifically monitored by management), estimated fair value of underlying collateral, loan commitments outstanding, delinquencies, and other factors. Based on this analysis, management established an allowance for loan losses. The allowance for loan losses is adjusted periodically by a provision for loan losses, which is charged to operations based on management's evaluation of the losses that may be incurred in the Bank's portfolio. The provision for loan losses increased by $600 for the six months ended September 30, 2002, as compared to the same six months ended September 30, 2001. 12 The Bank will continue to monitor its allowance for loan losses and make future additions to the allowance through the provision for loan losses as economic conditions dictate. Although the Bank maintains its allowance for loan losses at a level that it considers to be adequate to provide for the inherent risk of loss in its loan portfolio, there can be no assurance that future losses will not exceed estimated amounts or that additional provisions for loan losses will not be required in future periods. In addition, the Bank's determination as to the amount of its allowance for loan losses is subject to review by its primary federal regulator, the Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS"), as part of its examination process, which may result in the establishment of an additional allowance based on the judgment of the OTS after a review of the information available at the time of the OTS examination. Non-interest income increased by $106,000 to $132,000 for the six-month period ended September 30, 2002, from $26,000 for the same period in 2001. The increase was due to the gain on sale and call of available-for-sale securities in the amount of $91,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2002, which did not occur during the six months ended September 30, 2001. The increase was also attributable to the increase of $14,000, or 56.1%, in service charge income. The increase in service charge income from $25,000 for the six-month period ended September 30, 2001 to $39,000 for the six-month period ended September 30, 2002 was the direct result of the increase in the average balance of deposit accounts in the amount of $9.4 million. Non-interest expense increased by $162,000, or 29.7%, to $709,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2002, from $547,000 for the same period in 2001. Compensation and employee benefits increased $132,000, or 44.3%, to $429,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2002, from $297,000 for the same period in 2001. The increase in compensation and employee benefits was partially attributable to the recognition of $87,000 in compensation expense for the First Federal Savings Bank Directors Consultation and Retirement Plan, effective July 1, 2002. The increase was also attributable to the increase in compensation costs of $21,000 associated with the RSP and $7,000 associated with the ESOP. The increase in RSP costs was the direct result of participants electing to defer vesting of RSP shares for the period of July 1, 2000, to July 1, 2001. As a result, RSP compensation expense would not have been recognized during the three-month period ending September 30, 2001. ESOP costs are recognized monthly based on the fair value of Company stock. The increase in ESOP costs is the direct result of an increase in the fair value of Company stock during the six-month period ending September 30, 2002, as compared to the same period in 2001. The increase in compensation and employee benefits was also attributable to an increase in pension expense in the amount of $15,000. Income tax expense increased by $59,000, from $21,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2001, to $80,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2002. Liquidity and Capital Resources The Bank's primary sources of funds are deposits, amortization and repayment of loans, maturities of investment securities, and funds provided from operations. While scheduled loan repayments are a relatively predictable source of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions, and competition. The Bank has other sources of liquidity if a need for additional funds arises. Additional sources of liquidity include funds available from the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") of Pittsburgh amounting to $31.3 million. As of September 30, 2002, the Bank had no outstanding advances from the FHLB. As of September 30, 2002, the Bank had $1.2 million in outstanding mortgage and construction loan commitments. Management believes that it has adequate sources to meet the actual funding requirements. Management monitors the Bank's tangible, core, and risk-based capital ratios in order to assess compliance with OTS regulations. At September 30, 2002, the Bank exceeded the minimum capital ratios requirements imposed by the OTS. At September 30, 2002, the Bank's capital ratios were as follows: Bank Requirement Actual ----------- ------ Tangible capital 1.5% 18.16% Core capital 4.0% 18.16% Risk-based capital 8.0% 41.86% 13 Risk Elements The table below presents information concerning non-performing assets including non-accrual loans, renegotiated loans, loans 90 days or more past due, other real estate loans, and repossessed assets. A loan is classified as non-accrual when, in the opinion of management, there are serious doubts about collectibility of interest and principal. At the time the accrual of interest is discontinued, future income is recognized only when cash is received. Renegotiated loans are those loans for which terms have been renegotiated to provide a reduction or deferral of principal or interest as a result of the deterioration of the borrower's ability to pay.

As of September 30, 2002, the Company had no impaired loans. During the six months ended September 30, 2002, loans increased $39,000 and non-performing loans decreased $30,000, while the allowance for loan losses decreased $200 for the same period. The percentage of allowance for loan losses to loans outstanding remained at .6% during this time period. The collateral requirements on such loans reduce the risk of potential losses to an acceptable level in management's opinion. 14 CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures The Company's President and Chief Executive Officer (Principal Executive Officer and Principal Accounting and Financial Officer), after evaluating the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-14 and 15d-14) as of a date within 90 days prior to the filing of this report (the "Evaluation Date"), has concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were adequate and effective to ensure that material information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.
