ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS

On January 25, 2001, the Company issued the following press release:

              SECOND BANCORP'S FOURTH QUARTER EARNINGS INCREASE 22%

Warren, Ohio, January 25, 2001--SECOND BANCORP INCORPORATED (Nasdaq "SECD")
announced that earnings for the recently completed fourth quarter were
significantly improved over results reported for the same period last year. Net
income for the quarter was $4,030,000, up from $3,313,000 a year ago. On a per
share basis, diluted earnings for the quarter were similarly improved to $.40
from $.32 for the final quarter of 1999. For the full year, earnings were
negatively impacted by significant restructuring charges taken in the third
quarter. Including those charges, net income for 2000 was $6,134,000 ($.60 per
share) compared to $16,178,000 ($1.51 per share) a year ago. Excluding
restructuring charges, earnings for the year were $15,156,000 or $1.48 per
share.

                                                                    Page 1 of 13

Second Bancorp's return on average assets (ROA) for the fourth quarter improved
to 1.05% from .85% a year ago and return on average equity (ROE) was similarly
improved to 14.28% from 11.27% for the same quarter in 1999. For the year,
Company ROA was .39% (.96% excluding restructuring charges) compared to 1.08% in
1999 and ROE was 5.35% (13.22% excluding restructuring charges) versus 13.33%
last year.

Rick L. Blossom, Second Bancorp's President and Chief Executive Officer, stated
that "The year was one of transition for Second Bancorp. In the thirteen months
since my arrival, we have taken numerous steps to streamline, reengineer and
redefine the entire organization. That process has not, however, been without
cost as the third quarter restructuring charges indicate. The fourth quarter
rebound in earnings is, we believe, the beginning of a trend which will take us
to a new level of performance next year and into the future."

Second Bancorp's efficiency ratio for the year excluding the third quarter
restructuring charge slipped to 62.17% from 59.45% as higher non-interest
expenses incurred throughout the year in conjunction with the Company's
reorganization exceeded growth in non-interest income. With those expenses now
largely behind the Company, its efficiency ratio showed improvement during the
fourth quarter as it trended downward to 60.77% compared to 66.09% for the same
period last year. Similarly improved during the fourth quarter was the Company's
net interest margin which rose to 3.65% compared to 3.51% (excluding the third
quarter restructuring) for the entire year. That improvement was primarily the
result of third quarter adjustments to the Company's balance sheet.

Credit quality continued to be a focus of the Company. While year-end
non-accrual loans ($4.7 million) were significantly higher than year-ago levels,
net charge-offs as a percentage of total loans for the year were substantially
unchanged and the Company's period-end loan loss reserve was a healthy 1.42% of
total loans compared to 1.04% at the conclusion of 1999. Second Bancorp
Treasurer David L. Kellerman, indicated "Though we believe that credit quality
is controlled, we also expect that, as the local and national economies continue
to seek their equilibrium, normal course additions to the loan loss reserve
equaling or exceeding charge-offs will be necessary."

Second Bancorp also reported that its Board of Directors has declared a sixteen
cents ($.16) per share common dividend payable January 31, 2001 to shareholders
of record on January 15. That dividend is unchanged from the third quarter of
this year and is 14.3% higher than the dividend paid for the year-ago quarter.

This announcement contains forward-looking statements that involve risk and
uncertainties, including changes in general economic and financial market
conditions and the Company's ability to execute its business plans. Although
management believes the expectations reflected in such forward-looking
statements are reasonable, actual results may differ materially.
