NOTE D - TRUST PREFERRED SECURITIES
On September 7, 2000, Rurban Statutory Trust 1 ("RST"), a wholly owned
subsidiary of the Company closed a pooled private offering of 10,000 Capital
Securities with a liquidation amount of $1,000 per security. The proceeds of the
offering were loaned to the Company in exchange for junior subordinated
debentures with terms similar to the Capital Securities. The sole assets of RST
are the junior subordinated debentures of the Company and payments thereunder.
The junior subordinated debentures and the back-up obligations, in the
aggregate, constitute a full and unconditional guarantee by the Company of the
obligations of RST under the Capital Securities. Distributions on the Capital
Securities are payable semi-annually at the annual rate of 10.6% and are
included in interest expense in the consolidated financial statements. These
securities are considered Tier 1 capital (with certain limitations applicable)
under current regulatory guidelines. As of June 30, 2003, March 31, 2003,
December 31, 2002 and June 30, 2002, the outstanding principal balance of the
Capital Securities was $10,000,000.
The junior subordinated debentures are subject to mandatory redemption, in whole
or in part, upon repayment of the Capital Securities at maturity or their
earlier redemption at the liquidation amount. Subject to the Company having
received prior approval of the Federal Reserve, if then required, the Capital
Securities are redeemable prior to the maturity date of September 7, 2030, at
the option of the Company; on or after September 7, 2010 at a premium, or on or
after September 7, 2020 at par; or upon occurrence of specific events defined
within the trust indenture. The Company has the option to defer distributions on
the Capital Securities from time to time for a period not to exceed 10
consecutive semi-annual periods.
On February 12, 2003, the Trustee was notified that the Company elected to defer
the semi-annual distributions which would have been due on March 7, 2003, until
September 7, 2003.
On July 9, 2003, the Trustee was notified that the Company elected to defer the
semi-annual distributions which would have been due on September 7, 2003, until
March 7, 2004.
NOTE E - NOTE PAYABLE
The Company had a note payable to The Northern Trust Company of $5,499,999,
secured by stock in the Company's subsidiaries, payable in equal monthly
principal installments of $166,667 together with interest at a variable rate.
Final payment was made on June 6, 2003.
RFC Banking Company has a note payable to The Union Bank Company of $9,000,000,
secured by the stock of RFC Banking Company and RDSI, payable in equal quarterly
principal installments of $300,000 together with interest at a variable rate.
The Company also has a line of credit with The Union Bank Company for
$2,000,000. The line of credit was undrawn as of June 30, 2003.
RFC Banking Company has a note payable to First Federal Bank of the Midwest of
$4,363,168, secured by specific loans of RFCBC, payable in equal monthly
installments of $100,000 together with interest at a variable rate.
RDSI had a note payable to RFC Banking Company in the amount of $1,098,000. This
note was acquired by First Federal Bank of the Midwest upon their acquisition of
the branches sold during the second quarter.
15
NOTE F - REGULATORY MATTERS
The Company and the subsidiary banks are subject to various regulatory capital
requirements administered by the federal and state banking agencies. Failure to
meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly
additional discretionary actions by regulators, if undertaken, and could have a
direct material effect on the Company's financial statements. Under capital
adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action,
the Company and the subsidiary banks must meet specific capital guidelines that
involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities and certain
off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The
capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by
the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy
require the Company and the subsidiary banks to maintain minimum amounts and
ratios (set forth in the table below) of total and Tier I capital (as defined in
the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier I capital (as
defined) to average assets (as defined). Management believes, as of June 30,
2003, the Company and the subsidiary banks meet all "well-capitalized"
requirements to which they are subject.
16
The Company and significant subsidiary banks' actual capital amounts (in
millions) and ratios are also presented in the following table.

NOTE G - CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
There are various contingent liabilities that are not reflected in the
consolidated financial statements, including claims and legal actions arising in
the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, after
consultation with legal counsel, the ultimate disposition of these matters is
not expected to have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial
condition or results of operations.
NOTE H - NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
On November 25, 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Interpretation No. 45, Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for
Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others (FIN No. 45)
which expands on the accounting guidance of Statements No. 5, 57 and 107 and
incorporates without change the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 34, which
is being superseded.
FIN No. 45, which is applicable to public and non-public entities, will
significantly change current practice in the accounting for, and disclosure of,
guarantees. Each guarantee meeting the characteristics described in FIN No. 45
is to be recognized and initially measured at fair value, which will be a change
from current practice for most entities. In addition, guarantors will be
required to make significant new disclosures, even if the likelihood of the
guarantor making payments under the guarantee is remote, which represents
another change from current general practice.
FIN No. 45's disclosure requirements are effective for financial statements of
interim or annual periods ending after December 15, 2002, while the initial
recognition and initial measurement provisions are applicable on a prospective
basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. The Company has
changed its method of accounting and financial reporting for standby letters of
credit by adopting the provisions of FIN No. 45 effective January 1, 2003. There
was no material impact of the adoption on the financial statements.
NOTE I - BRANCH SALES
On February 22, 2003, an agreement was signed to sell the branches, deposits and
certain performing loans of the Peoples Banking Company and First Bank of Ottawa
divisions of RFCBC to First Federal Bank of the Midwest. The sale was closed
June 6, 2003. As of June 6, 2003, these branches had total loans of
approximately $76.6 million, total fixed assets (net of accumulated
depreciation) of approximately $1.4 million and total deposits (including
accrued interest) of approximately $166.2 million. A pre-tax gain of
approximately $13.0 million was recorded in June 2003 from the sale. The pre-tax
gain was offset by a $716,000 FHLB prepayment penalty associated with $6.0
million of FHLB Advances and the write-off of $327,000 of leasehold
improvements.
On March 28, 2003, the Citizens Savings Bank, a division of RFCBC, was sold to
The Union Bank Company. As of March 28, 2003, Citizens had total loans of $57.2
million, total fixed assets (net of accumulated depreciation) of $869,000 and
total deposits of $70.8 million. A pre-tax gain of approximately $8.0 million
was recorded in March 2003 from the sale.
The Company does not maintain a separate statement of operations for each
division.

NOTE J - STOCK OPTIONS
The Company accounts for its stock option plan under the recognition and
measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees, and related Interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation
cost is reflected in net income, as all options granted under those plans had an
exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the
grant date. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and
earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value provisions of FASB
Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to stock-based
employee compensation.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
Rurban Financial Corp. ("Rurban" or "the Company") was incorporated on February
23, 1983, under the laws of the State of Ohio. Rurban is a bank holding company
registered with the Federal Reserve Board under the Bank Holding Company Act of
1956, as amended. Rurban's subsidiaries, The State Bank and Trust Company
("State Bank") and RFC Banking Company ("RFCBC") are engaged in the industry
segment of commercial banking. RFCBC was created June 30, 2001 through the
merger of The Peoples Banking Company, The First National Bank of Ottawa and The
Citizens Savings Bank Company. As of June 6, 2003, RFCBC completed the sale of
all its active banking locations, retaining only selected loans. RFCBC has
ceased doing a banking business and will operate as a loan subsidiary of Rurban
in servicing and working out the retained loans. Rurban's subsidiary, Rurbanc
Data Services, Inc. ("RDSI"), provides computerized data processing services to
community banks and businesses including Rurban's subsidiary banks. Rurban's
subsidiary, Rurban Life Insurance Company ("Rurban Life") has a certificate of
authority from the State of Arizona to transact insurance as a domestic life and
disability insurer. Rurban's subsidiary, Rurban Statutory Trust I ("RST") was
established in September 2000 for the purpose of managing the Company's junior
subordinated debentures. Reliance Financial Services, N.A. ("Reliance"), a
wholly owned subsidiary of State Bank, provides trust and financial services to
customers nationwide.
The following discussion is intended to provide a review of the consolidated
financial condition and results of operations of Rurban. This discussion should
be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related
footnotes in Rurban's 2002 Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
This section may contain statements that are forward-looking as defined by the
Securities and Exchange Commission in its rules, regulations and releases. The
Company intends that such forward-looking statements be subject to the safe
harbors created thereby. All forward-looking statements are based on current
expectations regarding important risk factors including those identified in the
Company's most recent periodic report and other filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. Accordingly, actual results may differ materially from
those expressed in the forward-looking statements, and the making of such
statements should not be regarded as a representation by the Company, or any
other person, that the results expressed therein will be achieved.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accounting and reporting policies of the Company are in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and conform to
general practices within the banking industry. The Company's significant
accounting policies are described in detail in the notes to the Company's
consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2002. The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions. The
financial position and results of operations can be affected by these estimates
and assumptions and are integral to the understanding of reported results.
Critical accounting policies are those policies that management believes are the
most important to the portrayal of the Company's financial condition and
results, and they require management to make estimates that are difficult,
subjective, or complex.
ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES - The allowance for loan losses provides coverage for
probable losses inherent in the Company's loan portfolio. Management evaluates
the adequacy of the allowance for loan
22
losses each quarter based on changes, if any, in underwriting activities, the
loan portfolio composition (including product mix and geographic, industry or
customer-specific concentrations), trends in loan performance, regulatory
guidance and economic factors. This evaluation is inherently subjective, as it
requires the use of significant management estimates. Many factors can affect
management's estimates of specific and expected losses, including volatility of
default probabilities, rating migrations, loss severity and economic and
political conditions. The allowance is increased through provisions charged to
operating earnings and reduced by net charge-offs.
The Company determines the amount of the allowance based on relative risk
characteristics of the loan portfolio. The allowance recorded for commercial
loans is based on reviews of individual credit relationships and an analysis of
the migration of commercial loans and actual loss experience. The allowance
recorded for homogeneous consumer loans is based on an analysis of loan mix,
risk characteristics of the portfolio, fraud loss and bankruptcy experiences,
and historical losses, adjusted for current trends, for each homogeneous
category or group of loans. The allowance for credit losses relating to impaired
loans is based on the loan's observable market price, the collateral for certain
collateral-dependent loans, or the discounted cash flows using the loan's
effective interest rate.
Regardless of the extent of the Company's analysis of customer performance,
portfolio trends or risk management processes, certain inherent but undetected
losses are probable within the loan portfolio. This is due to several factors
including inherent delays in obtaining information regarding a customer's
financial condition or changes in their unique business conditions, the
judgmental nature of individual loan evaluations, collateral assessments and the
interpretation of economic trends. Volatility of economic or customer-specific
conditions affecting the identification and estimation of losses for larger
non-homogeneous credits and the sensitivity of assumptions utilized to establish
allowances for homogenous groups of loans are among other factors. The Company
estimates a range of inherent losses related to the existence of these
exposures. The estimates are based upon the Company's evaluation of imprecision
risk associated with the commercial and consumer allowance levels and the
estimated impact of the current economic environment.
GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLES - The Company records all assets and liabilities
acquired in purchase acquisitions, including goodwill and other intangibles, at
fair value as required by SFAS 141. Goodwill is subject, at a minimum, to annual
tests for impairment. Other intangible assets are amortized over their estimated
useful lives using straight-line and accelerated methods, and are subject to
impairment if events or circumstances indicate a possible inability to realize
the carrying amount. The initial goodwill and other intangibles recorded and
subsequent impairment analysis requires management to make subjective judgements
concerning estimates of how the acquired asset will perform in the future.
Events and factors that may significantly affect the estimates include, among
others, customer attrition, changes in revenue growth trends, specific industry
conditions and changes in competition.
QUARTERLY AND YEAR-TO-DATE EARNINGS SUMMARY
Net income for the quarter was $6.5 million, or $1.42 per diluted share, versus
a net loss of $7.6 million, or $1.68 per diluted share, for the second quarter
2002. Net income for the six months was $11.8 million, or $2.59 per diluted
share, versus a net loss of $7.4 million, or $1.64 per diluted share for the
same period in 2002. The year-to-date net income was primarily driven by the
sale of the branches of RFC Banking Company resulting in a pre-tax gain of
approximately $21.0 million.
23
Net interest income declined $3.0 million to $3.3 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2003 compared to $6.3 million for the second quarter 2002. The
decline in net interest income is due to a lower level of average earning
assets, declining market rates, a higher level of non-accrual loans and
increased balance sheet liquidity as the Company focused on strengthening its
risk based capital ratios. The decrease in earning assets is principally
attributable to the sale of assets associated with the disposition of the RFCBC
branches and lower loan demand.
The provision for loan losses of $0.3 million for the second quarter of 2003
decreased $11.6 million compared to the first three months of 2002.
Noninterest income increased $14.0 million to $15.7 million in the second
quarter of 2003 compared to $1.7 million for the second quarter of 2002. The
increase in noninterest income was mainly the result of the sale of the Peoples
Banking Company and First Bank of Ottawa on June 6, 2003, divisions of RFC
Banking Company, resulting in a pre-tax gain of $13.0 million. The pre-tax gain
was offset by a $716,000 FHLB prepayment penalty and the write-off of $327,000
of leasehold improvements.
Noninterest expense increased $1.1 million to $8.9 million for the second
quarter of 2003 compared to $7.8 million for the second quarter of 2002. This is
the result of professional fees increasing $1.2 million as a result of increased
attorney/consulting fees related to loan workouts, foreclosures, risk
assessments and branch divestitures and $165,000 in costs related to relocations
resulting from the restructuring and other staff changes. These increases are
partially offset by a $216,000 decrease in salary and benefits.
CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION
At June 30, 2003, total assets were $492.7 million, a decrease of $249.6 million
from December 31, 2002. The decrease was primarily attributable to decreases in
loans of $162.2 million, loans held for sale of $63.5 million, available for
sale securities of $37.4 million and other assets of $9.1 million. The decreases
were partially offset by an increase in federal funds sold of $31.3 million.
At June 30, 2003, the decreases in total liabilities and stockholders' equity
was mainly attributable to decreases in deposits of $203.2 million, deposits
held for sale of $68.2 million and FHLB Advances of $8.4 million. The decreases
were partially offset by increases in other liabilities of $10.6 million and
retained earnings of $11.8 million. The increase in other liabilities is
primarily due to a payable of $10.3 million due to First Federal Bank of Midwest
for the sell of branches.
The decrease in the balance sheet is the direct result of the sale of the RFCBC
branches in the first and second quarters of 2003. Also impacting the results
were reductions in loan balances due to residential loan refinancings and the
Company's low level of production of new loans.
LINKED QUARTER COMPARISON
The Company reported a net profit for the second quarter of 2003 of $6.5
million, or $1.42 per diluted share, versus a net profit of $5.3 million, or
$1.17 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2003. The second quarter
profit was mainly driven by the sale of the Peoples Banking Company and First
Bank of Ottawa, divisions of RFC Banking Company, on June 6, 2003 for a net
pre-tax gain of approximately $12.0 million. The first quarter profit was mainly
due to the sale of the Citizens
24
Savings Bank, a division of RFC Banking Company, on March 28, 2003 for a pre-tax
gain of approximately $8.0 million.
A comparison of financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 to the
previous quarter ended March 31, 2003 is as follows:

On a linked quarter basis, loans declined $40 million and total assets declined
$153 million. The decline in loans was primarily due to reductions in loan
balances due to residential loan refinancings and the Company's lower level of
production of new loans. The loans sold due to the branch sales in the second
quarter of 2003 were held-for-sale as of March 31, 2003.

2003. This decrease was largely due to a $2.4 million decline in loan interest
income in the second quarter, resulting from the disposition of loans included
with the branch sales. The net interest margin for the second quarter of 2003
was the same as the previous quarter of 2.92%.

LOAN LOSS PROVISION
The provision for loan losses of $0.3 million for the second quarter of 2003
decreased $0.9 million compared to the first quarter of 2003.

Noninterest income increased by $3.7 million to $15.7 million in the second
quarter of 2003. The second quarter increase was the result of the sale of the
remaining branches of RFC Banking Company resulting in a net pre-tax gain of
approximately $12.0 million recorded in gain on sale of assets compared to the
net pre-tax gain of $8.0 million on the branches sold during the first quarter.

Loans decreased $40 million to $326 million at June 30, 2003. The decline in
loans was primarily due to reductions in loan balances due to residential loan
refinancings and the Company's lower level of production of new loans. The loans
sold due to the branch sales in the second quarter of 2003 were held-for-sale as
of March 31, 2003.
Commercial real estate, agricultural, residential, consumer loans and leasing
for the quarter declined 30%, 27%, 11%, 5% and 16%, respectively, as loan demand

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
The Company grades its loans using an eight grade system. Problem loans are
classified as either:
Substandard: Inadequately protected, with well-defined weakness that
jeopardize liquidation of debt
Doubtful: Inherent weaknesses well-defined and high probability of loss
(impaired)
Loss: Considered uncollectible. May have recovery or salvage value with
future collection efforts (these loans are either fully reserved or
charged off)
The Company's allowance for loan losses has four components. Those components
are shown in the following table:

WRITTEN AGREEMENT
On July 9, 2002, the Company and State Bank announced they entered into a
Written Agreement ("Agreement") with the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland and
the Ohio Division of Financial Institutions on July 5, 2002. The Agreement was
the result of an examination of State Bank as of December 31, 2001, which was
conducted in March and April 2002.
The results of the November 4, 2002 regulatory examinations indicated that as of
that date, Rurban and State Bank were in compliance with most provisions of the
Agreement. Management believes that Rurban is currently in substantial
compliance with each of the provisions of the Agreement.
The Company and RFCBC have been advised by RFCBC's regulators, the FDIC and the
Ohio Division of Financial Institutions, that the preliminary results of the
November 4, 2002 examination of RFCBC indicated that the Bank may be presented
with a formal agreement based on concerns raised. RFCBC's December 31, 2002
total risk-based capital ratio was 8.1%, above the "adequately capitalized"
minimum of 8%. The closing of the sale of all the branches of RFCBC improved the
total risk-based capital ratio to approximately 56% and to date, no formal
written agreement has been received.
State Bank and RFCBC are prohibited from paying dividends to Rurban without
prior regulatory approval. Rurban is prohibited from paying Trust Preferred
"dividends" and common stock dividends without prior regulatory approval.
GOALS FOR 2003 AND 2004
The Company's near term goals include:
- Focus on the quality of the loan underwriting process
- Continued focus on Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
- Completion of the centralization of operations functions
- Continued monitoring of all corrective actions necessary to achieve
the release from the Written Agreement
- Restoring earnings to a level sufficient to resume the payment of a
dividend
LIQUIDITY
Liquidity relates primarily to the Company's ability to fund loan demand, meet
deposit customers' withdrawal requirements and provide for operating expenses.
Assets used to satisfy these needs consist of cash and due from banks, interest
earning deposits in other financial institutions, securities available-for sale
and loans held for sale. These assets are commonly referred to as liquid assets.
Liquid assets were $106.6 million at June 30, 2003 compared to $200.9 million at
March 31, 2003.
The Company's residential first mortgage portfolio of $48.1 million at June 30,
2003 and $53.9 million at March 31, 2003, which can and has been readily used to
collateralize borrowings, is an additional source of liquidity. Management
believes its current liquidity level is sufficient to meet its liquidity needs.
At June 30, 2003, all eligible mortgage loans were pledged under an a Federal
Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") blanket lien.
The cash flow statements for the periods presented provide an indication of the
Company's sources and uses of cash as well as an indication of the ability of
the Company to maintain an adequate level of liquidity. A discussion of the cash
flow statements at June 30, 2003 and 2002 follows.
29
The Company experienced a net increase in cash from operating activities at June
30, 2003 and 2002. Net cash from operating activities was $15.8 million and $2.4
million, respectively, at June 30, 2003 and 2002.
Net cash flow from investing activities was $46.3 million and $63.0 million at
June 30, 2003 and 2002 respectively. The changes in net cash from investing
activities at June 30, 2003 include a decrease in securities of $(37.0) million,
a decrease in loans of $(80.3) million, a decrease from the sale of the RFC
Banking Company branches of $(70.5) million as well as changes in
interest-bearing deposits, purchases of premises and equipment and other
investing activities. The changes in net cash from investing activities at June
30, 2002 include increases in loans of $16.4 million, decrease in securities of
$(23.3) million and the purchase of net liabilities from the Oakwood acquisition
of $58.6 million.
Net cash flow from financing activities was $(40.0) million and $(62.9) million
at June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The net cash decrease was primarily due
to a reduction in total deposits of $(40.0) million at June 30, 2003 compared to
$(56.3) at June 30, 2002. Other changes included decreases in Federal Home Loan
Bank (FHLB) advances of $(8.4) million and a note payable increase of $(8.5)
million at June 30, 2003 compared to a $(1.9) decrease in FHLB advances, an
increase of $7.0 million for a note payable and payment of dividends of $(1.8)
million at June 30, 2002.
OFF-BALANCE-SHEET BORROWING ARRANGEMENTS:
Significant additional off-balance-sheet liquidity is available in the form of
FHLB advances, unused federal funds lines from correspondent banks, and the
national certificate of deposit market. While such additional off-balance-sheet
liquidity is available, the Written Agreement between Rurban, State Bank, the
Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland and the Ohio Division of Financial
Institutions requires Rurban and State Bank to obtain written approval of the
Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland and the Ohio Division of Financial
Institutions prior to directly or indirectly incurring any debt.
Approximately $33.5 million residential first mortgage loans of the Company's
$48.1 million portfolio qualify to collateralize FHLB borrowings and have been
pledged to meet FHLB collateralization requirements as of June 30, 2003. In
addition to residential first mortgage loans, $29.0 million in investment
securities are pledged to meet FHLB collateralization requirements. Based on the
current collateralization requirements of the FHLB, approximately $6.0 million
of additional borrowing capacity existed at June 30, 2003.
As of June 30, 2003, the Company had unused federal funds lines totaling
approximately $8.0 million from one correspondent bank. At March 31, 2003, the
Company had unused federal funds lines totaling approximately $14.0 million from
two correspondent banks. Federal funds borrowed were $0 at June 30, 2003 and
March 31, 2003.
Approximately $11.0 million performing commercial loans are pledged to the
Federal Reserve Discount Window to establish additional borrowing capacity of
$7.7 million. Such loans are pledged for contingency funding purposes and to
date this borrowing capacity has not been used.

ASSET LIABILITY MANAGEMENT
Asset liability management involves developing and monitoring strategies to
maintain sufficient liquidity, maximize net interest income and minimize the
impact that significant fluctuations in market interest rates would have on
earnings. The business of the Company and the composition of its balance sheet
consists of investments in interest-earning assets (primarily loans and
securities available for sale) which are primarily funded by interest-bearing
liabilities (deposits and borrowings). With the exception of loans which are
originated and held for sale, all of the financial instruments of the Company
are for other than trading purposes. All of the Company's transactions are
denominated in U.S. dollars with no foreign exchange exposure. In addition, the
Company has limited exposure to commodity prices related to agricultural loans.
The impact of changes in commodity prices on interest rates are assumed to be
insignificant. The Company's financial instruments have varying levels of
sensitivity to changes in market interest rates resulting in market risk.
Interest rate risk is the Company's primary market risk exposure; to a lesser
extent, liquidity risk also impacts market risk exposure.
Interest rate risk is the exposure of a banking institution's financial
condition to adverse movements in interest rates. Accepting this risk can be an
important source of profitability and stockholder value; however, excessive
levels of interest rate risk could pose a significant threat to the Company's
earnings and capital base. Accordingly, effective risk management that maintains
interest rate risks at prudent levels is essential to the Company's safety and
soundness.
Evaluating a financial institution's exposure to changes in interest rates
includes assessing both the adequacy of the management process used to control
interest rate risk and the organization's quantitative level of exposure. When
assessing the interest rate risk management process, the Company seeks to ensure
that appropriate policies, procedures, management information systems, and
internal controls are in place to maintain interest rate risks at prudent levels
of consistency and continuity. Evaluating the quantitative level of interest
rate risk exposure requires the Company to assess the existing and potential
31
future effects of changes in interest rates on its consolidated financial
condition, including capital adequacy, earnings, liquidity, and asset quality
(when appropriate).
The Federal Reserve Board together with the Office of the Comptroller of the
Currency and the Federal Deposit Insurance Company, adopted an Inter-Agency
Policy Statement on interest rate risk effective June 26, 1996. The policy
statement provides guidance to examiners and bankers on sound practices for
managing interest rate risk, which will form the basis for ongoing evaluation of
the adequacy of interest rate risk management at supervised institutions. The
policy statement also outlines fundamental elements of sound management that
have been identified in prior Federal Reserve guidance and discusses the
importance of these elements in the context of managing interest rate risk.
Specifically, the guidance emphasizes the need for active Board of Director and
senior management oversight and a comprehensive risk management process that
effectively identifies, measures, and controls interest rate risk.
Financial institutions derive their income primarily from the excess of interest
collected over interest paid. The rates of interest an institution earns on its
assets and owes on its liabilities generally are established contractually for a
period of time. Since market interest rates change over time, an institution is
exposed to lower profit margins (or losses) if it cannot adapt to interest rate
changes. For example, assume that an institution's assets carry intermediate or
long term fixed rates and that those assets are funded with short-term
liabilities. If market interest rates rise by the time the short-term
liabilities must be refinanced, the increase in the institution's interest
expense on its liabilities may not be sufficiently offset if assets continue to
earn at the long-term fixed rates. Accordingly, an institution's profits could
decrease on existing assets because the institution will either have lower net
interest income or possibly, net interest expense. Similar risks exist when
assets are subject to contractual interest rate ceilings, or rate sensitive
assets are funded by longer-term, fixed-rate liabilities in a declining rate
environment.
There are several ways an institution can manage interest rate risk including:
1) matching repricing periods for new assets and liabilities, for example, by
shortening terms of new loans or investments; 2) selling existing assets or
repaying certain liabilities; and 3) hedging existing assets, liabilities, or
anticipated transactions. An institution might also invest in more complex
financial instruments intended to hedge or otherwise change interest rate risk.
Interest rate swaps, futures contacts, options on futures contracts, and other
such derivative financial instruments can be used for this purpose. Because
these instruments are sensitive to interest rate changes, they require
management's expertise to be effective. The Company has not purchased derivative
financial instruments in the past and does not presently intend to purchase such
instruments.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK
The following table provides information about the Company's financial
instruments used for purposes other than trading that are sensitive to changes
in interest rates as of June 30, 2003. It does not present when these items may
actually reprice. For loans receivable, securities, and liabilities with
contractual maturities, the table presents principal cash flows and related
weighted-average interest rates by contractual maturities as well as the
Company's historical experience of the impact of interest rate fluctuations on
the prepayment of loans and mortgage backed securities. For core deposits
(demand deposits, interest-bearing checking, savings, and money market deposits)
that have no contractual maturity, the table presents principal cash flows and,
as applicable, related weighted-average interest rates based upon the Company's
historical experience, management's judgment and statistical analysis, as
applicable, concerning their most likely withdrawal behaviors. The current
historical interest rates for core deposits have been assumed to apply for
future periods in this table as the actual interest rates that will need to be
paid to maintain these deposits are not currently known. Weighted average
variable rates are based upon contractual rates existing at the reporting date.

--------- --------- --------- ---------
Increase (decrease) $(127,015) $(140,212) $ (4,015) $(271,242)
Total rate sensitive assets decreased approximately $231.4 million and rate
sensitive liabilities decreased approximately $271.2 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2003 due primarily to the sale of the loans ($164.2 million) and
deposits ($244.4 million) of RFC Banking Company.
Currently, the Company is paying down maturing broker CD's and FHLB advances.
During the six months ended June 30, 2003, $18.0 million in broker CD's and $8.4
million in FHLB advances were paid off. The Cleveland office has also been
closed resulting in a reduction of $15.9 million in loans and $4.7 million in
deposits.
The above table reflects expected maturities, not expected repricing. The
contractual maturities adjusted for anticipated prepayments and anticipated
renewals at current interest rates, as shown in the preceding table, are only
part of the Company's interest rate risk profile. Other important factors
include the ratio of rate-sensitive assets to rate sensitive liabilities (which
takes into consideration loan repricing frequency but not when deposits may be
repriced) and the general level and direction of market interest rates. For core
deposits, the repricing frequency is assumed to be longer than when such
deposits actually reprice. For some rate sensitive liabilities, their repricing
frequency is the same as their contractual maturity. For variable rate loans,
repricing frequency can be daily or monthly and for adjustable rate loans,
repricing can be as frequent as annually for loans whose contractual maturities
range from one to thirty years. While increasingly aggressive local market
competition in lending rates has pushed loan rates lower; the Company's
increased reliance on non-core funding sources has restricted the Company's
ability to reduce funding rates in concert with declines in lending rates.
The Company manages its interest rate risk by the employment of strategies to
assure that desired levels of both interest-earning assets and interest-bearing
liabilities mature or reprice with similar time frames. Such strategies include;
1) loans which are renewed (and repriced) annually, 2) variable rate loans, 3)
certificates of deposit with terms from one month to six years and 4) securities
available for sale which mature at various times primarily from one through ten
years 5) federal funds borrowings with terms of one day to three days, and 6)
Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings with terms of one day to ten years.
