EXHIBIT 99.3 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM Stockholders and Board of Directors F.N.B. Corporation We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of F.N.B. Corporation and subsidiaries (F.N.B. Corporation) as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2003. These financial statements are the responsibility of management of F.N.B. Corporation. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of F.N.B. Corporation at December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2003 in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. /s/ Ernst & Young LLP Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania February 24, 2004, except for Note 2, as to which the date is January 4, 2005 F.N.B.

CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation: The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Corporation and its subsidiaries. The Corporation's consolidated financial statements have historically included subsidiaries in which the Corporation has a controlling financial interest. This requirement has been applied to subsidiaries in which the Corporation has a majority voting interest. Investments in companies in which the Corporation controls operating and financing decisions (principally defined as owning a voting or economic interest greater than 50%) are consolidated. In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. (FIN) 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of ARB No. 51, the Corporation considers a voting rights entity to be a subsidiary and consolidates it if the Corporation has a controlling financial interest in the entity. Variable interest entities are consolidated if the Corporation is exposed to the majority of the variable interest entity's expected losses and/or residual returns (i.e., the Corporation is considered to be the primary beneficiary). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior years' financial statements to conform to the current year's presentation, including restatements for a transaction accounted for as a pooling-of-interests during 2002. (See the "Mergers and Acquisitions" section of this report). Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Cash Equivalents: The Corporation considers cash and due from banks as cash and cash equivalents. Securities: Debt securities are classified as held to maturity when management has the positive intent and ability to hold securities to maturity. Securities held to maturity are carried at amortized cost. Debt securities not classified as held to maturity and marketable equity securities are classified as available for sale. Securities available for sale are carried at fair value with net unrealized securities gains (losses), net of income taxes, reported separately as a component of other comprehensive income. Amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts are recorded as interest income from securities. Realized gains and losses are recorded as net securities gains (losses). The adjusted cost of specific securities sold is used to compute gains or losses on sales. Presently, the Corporation does not have a trading securities classification. Securities are periodically reviewed for impairment based upon a number of factors, including but not limited to, length of time and extent to which the market value has been less than cost, financial condition of the underlying issuer, ability of the issuer to meet contractual obligations, the likelihood of the security's ability to recover any decline in its market value, and the intent and ability to retain the security for a period of time sufficient to allow for recovery in market value. Equity Method Investment: The Corporation accounts for its 15.2% ownership of the common stock of Sun Bancorp, Inc. (Sun) under the equity method. The carrying value of the Corporation's investment in Sun is adjusted for the Corporation's share of Sun's earnings and reduced by dividends received from Sun. Sun, a bank holding company headquartered in Lewisburg, Pennsylvania, is a publicly traded company under the stock symbol "SUBI" on the Nasdaq Stock Market. The carrying value of the investment included in other assets was $23.3 million at December 31, 2003. -8- Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase: Securities sold under agreements to repurchase are accounted for as collateralized financing transactions and are recorded at the amounts at which the securities were sold. Securities, generally U.S. government and Federal agency securities, pledged as collateral under these financing arrangements cannot be sold or repledged by the secured party. Mortgage Loans Held for Sale: Certain residential mortgage loans are originated for sale in the secondary mortgage loan market and typically sold with servicing rights released. These loans are classified as loans held for sale and are carried at the lower of aggregate cost or estimated market value. Market value is determined on the basis of rates obtained in the respective secondary market for the type of loan held for sale. Loans are generally sold at a premium or discount from the carrying amount of the loan. Such premium or discount is recognized at the date of sale. Gain or loss on the sale of loans is recorded in non-interest income at the time consideration is received and all other criteria for sales treatment have been met. Loans and the Allowance for Loan Losses: Loans are reported at their outstanding principal balance adjusted for any charge-offs and any deferred fees or costs on originated loans. Interest income on loans is accrued on the principal amount outstanding. It is the Corporation's policy to discontinue interest accruals when principal or interest is due and has remained unpaid for 90 days or more unless the loan is both well secured and in the process of collection. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, all unpaid interest is reversed. Payments on non-accrual loans are generally applied to either principal or interest or both, depending on management's evaluation of collectibility. Non-accrual loans may not be restored to accrual status until all delinquent principal and interest has been paid, or the loan becomes both well secured and in the process of collection. Consumer installment loans are generally charged off against the allowance for loan losses upon reaching 90 to 180 days past due, depending on the installment loan type. Commercial loan charge-offs, either in whole or in part, are generally made as soon as facts and circumstances raise a serious doubt as to the collectibility of all or a portion of the principal. Loan origination fees and related costs are deferred and recognized over the life of the loans as an adjustment of yield. The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level that, in management's judgment, is adequate to absorb probable losses associated with specifically identified loans, as well as estimated probable credit losses inherent in the remainder of the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. The allowance for loan losses is based on management's evaluation of potential losses in the loan portfolio, which includes an assessment of past experience, current economic conditions, known and inherent risks in the loan portfolio, the estimated value of underlying collateral and residuals and changes in the composition of the loan portfolio. Additions are made to the allowance through periodic provisions charged to income and recovery of principal on loans previously charged off. Losses of principal and/or residuals are charged to the allowance when the loss actually occurs or when a determination is made that a loss is probable. The allowance for loan losses consists of an allocated and unallocated component. The components of the allowance for loan losses represent an estimation completed pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Statement (FAS) 5, Accounting for Contingencies, or FAS 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan. The allocated component reflects expected losses resulting from analysis developed through specific credit allocations for individual loans and historical loss experience for each loan category. The specific credit allocations are based on a regular analysis of all commercial loans over a fixed-dollar amount where the internal credit rating is at or below a predetermined classification. The historical loan loss element is determined statistically based on regularly updated loan loss experience. The unallocated portion of the allowance is determined based on management's assessment of historical losses on the remaining portfolio segments in conjunction with the current status of economic conditions, loan loss trends, delinquency and non-accrual trends, credit administration, portfolio growth, concentrations of credit risk and other factors, including regulatory guidance. This determination inherently involves a higher degree of uncertainty, involves a consideration of current risk factors that may not have yet occurred in the Corporation's historical loss factors used to determine the allocated component of the allowance, and it recognizes that knowledge of the portfolio may be incomplete. The allocation of the allowance should not be interpreted as an indication that loan losses in future years will occur in the same proportions or that the allocation indicates future loan loss trends. Impaired loans are identified and measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, at the loan's observable market price or at the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. If the -9- recorded investment in the loan exceeds the measure of fair value, a valuation allowance is established as a component of the allowance for loan losses. Impaired loans consist of non-homogeneous loans, which based on the evaluation of current information and events, management has determined that it is probable the Corporation will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The Corporation evaluates all commercial and commercial real estate loans which have been classified for regulatory reporting purposes, including non-accrual and restructured loans, in determining impaired loans. Premises and Equipment: Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed generally on the straight-line method over the asset's estimated useful life. Useful lives are dependent upon the nature and condition of the asset and range from 3 to 40 years. Other Real Estate Owned: Assets acquired in settlement of indebtedness are included in other assets at the lower of fair value minus estimated costs to sell or at the carrying amount of the indebtedness. Subsequent write-downs and net direct operating expenses attributable to such assets are included in other expenses. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets: Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the net assets acquired. Other intangible assets represent purchased assets that also lack physical substance but can be distinguished from goodwill because of contractual or other legal rights. On January 1, 2002, the Corporation adopted FAS 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Under the provisions of FAS 142, goodwill is no longer amortized into the income statement over an estimated life, but rather is tested at least annually for impairment. Intangible assets which have finite lives continue to be amortized over their estimated useful lives and also continue to be subject to impairment testing. Core deposit intangibles are being amortized primarily over 10 years. Customer and renewal lists and other intangible assets are being amortized over their remaining useful lives which range from one to ten years. Income Taxes: Income taxes are computed utilizing the liability method. Under this method deferred taxes are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Per Share Amounts: Earnings and cash dividends per share have been adjusted for common stock dividends, including the five percent stock dividend declared on April 28, 2003. Basic earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net income, adjusted for preferred stock dividends declared, by the sum of the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding, assuming conversion of outstanding convertible preferred stock from the beginning of the year and the exercise of stock options. Such adjustments to net income and the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding are made only when such adjustments dilute earnings per common share. Employee Stock Option Plan: Current accounting guidance permits two alternative methods of accounting for stock-based compensation, the intrinsic value method of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and the fair value method of FAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. FAS 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation Transition and Disclosure, was issued in December 2002. It continues to provide alternative methods of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, it amends disclosure requirements in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. The Corporation continues to account for its stock-based compensation plans under APB Opinion 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. -10- In accordance with FAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, the following table shows pro forma net income and earnings per share assuming stock options had been expensed based on the fair value of the options granted along with the significant assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model (dollars in thousands, except per share data): Year Ended December 31 2003 2002 2001 ---------- ---------- ---------- Income from continuing operations $ 27,038 $ 31,271 $ 31,769 Less: Stock-based employee compensation cost determined if the fair value method had been applied to all awards, net of tax (1,236) (1,338) (1,173) ---------- ---------- ---------- 25,802 29,933 30,596 ---------- ---------- ---------- Income from discontinued operations 31,751 32,064 21,216 Less: Stock-based employee compensation cost determined if the fair value method had been applied to all awards, net of tax, for discontinued operations (827) (696) (594) ---------- ---------- ---------- 30,924 31,368 20,622 ---------- ---------- ---------- Pro forma net income $ 56,726 $ 61,301 $ 51,218 ========== ========== ========== BASIC EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE: Income from continuing operations $ .58 $ .68 $ .71 Less: Stock-based employee compensation cost determined if the fair value method had been applied to all awards, net of tax (.03) (.03) (.03) ---------- ---------- ---------- .55 .65 .68 ---------- ---------- ---------- Income from discontinued operations .69 .69 .48 Less: Stock-based employee compensation cost determined if the fair value method had been applied to all awards, net of tax, for discontinued operations (.01) (.01) (.01) ---------- ---------- ---------- .68 .68 .47 ---------- ---------- ---------- Pro forma net income $ 1.23 $ 1.33 $ 1.15 ========== ========== ========== DILUTED EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE: Income from continuing operations $ .57 $ .67 $ .70 Less: Stock-based employee compensation cost determined if the fair value method had been applied to all awards, net of tax (.03) (.03) (.03) ---------- ---------- ---------- .54 .64 .67 ---------- ---------- ---------- Income from discontinued operations .68 .68 .47 Less: Stock-based employee compensation cost determined if the fair value method had been applied to all awards, net of tax, for discontinued operations (.01) (.02) (.01) ---------- ---------- ---------- .67 .66 .46 ---------- ---------- ---------- Pro forma net income $ 1.21 $ 1.30 $ 1.13 ========== ========== ========== Assumptions: Risk-free interest rate 4.05% 3.92% 5.25% Dividend yield 2.63% 3.09% 2.84% Expected stock price volatility .21% .17% .26% Expected life (years) 5.00 5.00 5.00 Fair value of options granted $ 5.04 $ 4.56 $ 5.35 -11- For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the options is amortized to expense over the options' vesting period of five years. The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option variation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. Because the Corporation's employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management's opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of the Corporation's employee stock options. New Accounting Standards: FIN 45, Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others, was issued in November 2002. FIN 45 requires certain guarantees to be recorded at fair value and applies to contracts or indemnification agreements that contingently require the guarantor to make payments to the guaranteed party based on changes in an underlying obligation that is related to an asset, liability or an equity security of the guaranteed party. The impact of the adoption of FIN 45 was not material to the Corporation's financial condition or results of operations. FIN 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of ARB No. 51, was issued in January 2003 and amended in December 2003. FIN 46 addresses consolidation by business enterprises of variable interest entities which have certain characteristics. FIN 46 applies immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003. It applies in the first fiscal year or interim period beginning after December 15, 2003, to variable interest entities in which an enterprise holds a variable interest that is acquired before February 1, 2003. The Corporation has limited partnership investments in affordable housing projects, for which it provides funding as a limited partner and receives tax credit for any losses incurred by the projects based on its partnership share. The Corporation's interests in these entities were acquired prior to February 1, 2003. At December 31, 2003, the Corporation had recorded investments in other assets on its balance sheet of approximately $1.4 million associated with these investments. The Corporation currently adjusts the carrying value of these investments for any losses incurred by the limited partnership through earnings. The Corporation determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of these partnerships and will not consolidate them. Additionally, the Corporation has investments in trusts which issue trust preferred securities. The Corporation has determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of the trusts and will not consolidate them. FAS 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities, was issued in June 2002 and requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred. FAS 146 also establishes that fair value is the objective for initial measurement of the liability. The provisions of FAS 146 became effective for the Corporation on January 1, 2003. The costs incurred in connection with the spin-off transaction, which was discussed in the "Discontinued Operations" section of this report, were accounted for in accordance with the provisions of FAS 146. FAS 149, Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, was issued in April 2003 and requires that contracts with comparable characteristics be accounted for similarly. In particular, FAS 149 clarifies under what circumstance a contract with an initial net investment meets the characteristic of a derivative, clarifies when a derivative contains a financing component, amends the definition of an underlying to conform it to language used in FIN 45 and amends certain other existing pronouncements. Those changes will result in more consistent reporting of contracts as either derivatives or hybrid instruments. The provisions of FAS 149 became effective for the Corporation on June 30, 2003 and did not have a material impact on the Corporation's financial condition or results of operations. FAS 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liability and Equity, was issued in May of 2003. FAS 150 establishes how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer classify certain financial instruments that would previously have been classified as equity as liabilities (or as assets in some circumstances). Specifically, FAS 150 requires that a mandatorily redeemable financial instruments be classified as a liability unless the redemption is required to occur only upon the liquidation or termination of the reporting entity. FAS 150 was effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise became effective on July 1, 2003. -12- The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued Statement of Position (SOP) 03-3, Accounting for Certain Loans and Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer, in December 2003. SOP 03-3 addresses accounting for differences between contractual cash flows and expected cash flows to be collected from an investor's initial investment in loans or debt securities acquired in a transfer if the differences are attributable, at least in part, to credit quality. SOP 03-3 does not apply to loans originated by the entity. The provisions of SOP 03-3 are effective for loans acquired in fiscal years beginning after December 13, 2004. The Corporation does not expect the implementation of SOP 03-3 to have a material impact on the Corporation's financial condition or results of operations. The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Staff Position (FSP) 106-1, Accounting and Disclosure Requirements Related to the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003, in December 2003. FSP 106-1 permits a sponsor of a postretirement health care plan that provides a prescription plan benefit to make a one-time election to defer accounting for the effects of the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003. The provisions of FSP 106-1 became effective for the Corporation on December 31, 2003 and did not have a material impact on the Corporation's financial condition or results of operations. 2. BUSINESS, ORGANIZATIONAL CHANGES AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS Business: F.N.B. Corporation (the Corporation) is a diversified financial services company headquartered in Hermitage, Pennsylvania. The Corporation owns and operates First National Bank of Pennsylvania, First National Trust Company, First National Investment Services Company, F.N.B. Investment Advisors, Inc., First National Insurance Agency, Inc. and Regency Finance Company. It has full service banking offices located in Pennsylvania and Ohio and consumer finance operations in Pennsylvania, Ohio and Tennessee. Organizational Changes: On June 1, 2001, the Corporation reincorporated in the State of Florida. The Corporation was originally incorporated in 1974 in Pennsylvania, and at that time substantially all of the Corporation's business was being conducted in Pennsylvania. The Corporation expanded into Florida seven years ago. In connection with the reincorporation, the Corporation reduced the par value of both its common stock and preferred stock to $0.01 per share. During the fourth quarter of 2002, the Corporation completed the consolidation of its community banking affiliate in Ohio, Metropolitan National Bank, into FNBPA. The Corporation incurred $510,000 in consolidation costs associated with the transaction. During the first quarter of 2001, the Corporation reduced its number of bank charters from three to two by merging its two Pennsylvania banks under FNBPA. The Corporation incurred pre-tax consolidation expense of $2.3 million arising from legal and accounting fees, consulting fees, data processing conversion charges, early retirement, involuntary separation costs and related benefit costs. Involuntary separation costs associated with 30 terminated employees totaled $1.0 million of the consolidation expense. The total amount of separation payments paid during 2001 was $710,000. The remaining separation costs were paid in accordance with the contractual terms of the employment and compensation agreements of the terminated employees in 2002. Discontinued Operations: On January 1, 2004, the Corporation completed the spin-off of its Florida operations into a separate, publicly traded company known as First National Bankshares of Florida, Inc. (Bankshares). Effective January 1, 2004, the Corporation transferred all of its Florida operations to Bankshares. At the same time, the Corporation distributed all of the outstanding stock of Bankshares to the Corporation's shareholders of record as of December 26, 2003. Shareholders eligible for the distribution received one share of Bankshares common stock for each outstanding share of the Corporation's common stock held. Immediately following the distribution, the Corporation and its subsidiaries did not own any shares of Bankshares common stock and Bankshares became an independent public company. Concurrent with the spin-off of its Florida operations, the Corporation moved its executive offices from Naples, Florida to Hermitage, Pennsylvania on January 1, 2004. As a result of the spin-off, the Florida operations' earnings have been reclassified as discontinued operations on the consolidated statements of income, and assets and liabilities related to these discontinued operations have been disclosed separately on the consolidated balance sheets. -13- Following is a summary of the carrying amount of major classes of assets and liabilities of the Corporation's discontinued operations (in thousands): DECEMBER 31, --------------------------- 2003 2002 ---------- ---------- ASSETS Cash and short-term investments $ 105,658 $ 127,300 Investment securities 775,334 385,269 Mortgage loans held for sale 15,153 -- Net loans 2,421,278 1,963,874 Goodwill 173,729 62,678 Other assets 259,984 196,083 ---------- ---------- TOTAL ASSETS OF DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS $3,751,136 $2,735,204 ========== ========== LIABILITIES Deposits $2,719,989 $2,122,052 Borrowings 625,051 311,001 Other liabilities 40,981 34,070 ---------- ---------- TOTAL LIABILITIES OF DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS $3,386,021 $2,467,123 ========== ========== Following is a summary of the income and expense of the Corporation's discontinued operations (in thousands): DECEMBER 31, -------------------------------------- 2003 2002 2001 -------- -------- -------- Interest income $166,294 $150,931 $148,728 Interest expense 42,846 47,299 65,316 Provision for loan losses 7,184 5,470 4,468 Non-interest income 62,416 54,728 47,980 Non-interest expense 130,298 104,441 93,588 -------- -------- -------- INCOME BEFORE INCOME TAXES 48,382 48,449 33,336 Income taxes 16,631 16,385 12,120 -------- -------- -------- INCOME FROM DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS $ 31,751 $ 32,064 $ 21,216 ======== ======== ======== The spin-off resulted in the division of certain existing corporate support functions between the two resulting entities. Corporate expenses included in the Corporation's financial results represent an allocation of F.N.B. Corporation's corporate expenses. This allocation is based on a specific review to identify costs incurred for the benefit of the subsidiaries of the Corporation and in management's judgment results in a reasonable allocation of such costs. The Corporation was allocated $24.7 million, $32.6 million and $31.1 million of overhead costs related to shared administrative and support functions for 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The majority of these costs were specific to the activities of the continuing operations. The remaining costs were allocated based on a proportional share of assets. The consolidated financial statements included herein may not necessarily be indicative of the results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the Corporation in the future or had it operated as a separate, independent company during the periods presented. The consolidated financial statements included herein do not reflect any changes that may occur in the financial condition and results of operations of the Corporation or its subsidiaries as a result of the spin-off. The Corporation incurred approximately $39.2 million in restructuring expense directly attributable to the distribution. These expenses consisted of a $20.7 million prepayment penalty for refinancing Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) debt, $12.0 million of early retirement expenses, involuntary separation costs and data processing contract termination costs, $3.4 million in professional fees and approximately $3.1 million in the write-off of fixed assets and other expenses connected with the separation. At December 31, 2003, a liability of approximately $7.2 million remained in connection with these expenses. -14- 3. MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS FOR CONTINUING OPERATIONS On October 8, 2002, the Corporation completed its business combination with Harry Blackwood, Inc. (Blackwood), an independent insurance agency in Chippewa Township, Pennsylvania. In exchange for all of the outstanding common stock of Blackwood, the Corporation paid $1.4 million in cash. Goodwill recognized in connection with this acquisition was $990,000. The transaction was accounted for as a purchase. Blackwood operates as a division of First National Insurance Agency, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation. On January 18, 2002, the Corporation completed its business combination with Promistar Financial Corporation (Promistar), a bank holding company headquartered in Johnstown, Pennsylvania, with assets of $2.4 billion. Under the terms of the merger agreement, each outstanding share of Promistar's common stock was converted into .926 shares of the Corporation's common stock. A total of 16,007,346 shares of the Corporation's common stock were issued. The transaction was accounted for as a pooling-of-interests. Promistar's banking affiliate, Promistar Bank, was merged into an existing subsidiary of the Corporation, First National Bank of Pennsylvania (FNBPA). The Corporation incurred a merger related charge of approximately $41.4 million during the first quarter of 2002 relating to this transaction. The total merger charge included involuntary separation costs associated with terminated employees, early retirement and other employment related expenses, data processing conversion charges, professional services, write-downs of impaired assets and other miscellaneous expenses, all of which have been paid by December 31, 2003. On August 14, 2001, Promistar completed its business combination with FNH Corporation (FNH), a bank holding company headquartered in Irwin, Pennsylvania, with assets of $303.7 million. The transaction was accounted for as a purchase. Goodwill and a core deposit intangible of $7.0 million and $7.5 million, respectively, were recorded in connection with the merger. FNH's banking subsidiary, First National Bank of Herminie, was merged into Promistar Bank, which was later merged into FNBPA. The Corporation regularly evaluates the potential acquisition of, and holds discussions with, various acquisition candidates and as a general rule the Corporation publicly announces such acquisitions only after a definitive merger agreement has been reached. 4.

GOODWILL Upon adoption of FAS 142 on January 1, 2002, the Corporation ceased amortizing its goodwill, which decreased non-interest expense and increased net income in 2003 and 2002 as compared to 2001. Rather than amortizing goodwill, the Corporation is required to test goodwill at least annually for impairment. The Corporation completed its impairment testing and concluded that goodwill is not impaired.

These advances are secured by residential real estate loans and FHLB stock and are scheduled to mature in various amounts periodically through the year 2012. Interest rates paid on these advances range from 2.10% to 5.75% in 2003 and 1.82% to 7.19% in 2002. The debentures due to Statutory Trust were issued by F.N.B. Statutory Trust I (Statutory Trust), an unconsolidated subsidiary of the Corporation, to fund the acquisition of a bank that was later spun-off with the Corporation's Florida operations. The Statutory Trust was formed for the sole purpose of issuing the capital securities and investing the proceeds form the sale of such capital securities in the debentures. The debentures held by Statutory Trust are its sole assets. Distributions on the capital securities issued by Statutory Trust are recorded as interest expense by the Corporation. The capital securities are subject to mandatory redemption, in whole or in part, upon repayment of the debentures. The capital securities bear interest at a floating rate per annum equal to the three-month LIBOR plus 325 basis points. The Corporation has entered into agreements which, taken collectively, fully and unconditionally guarantee the capital securities subject to the terms of each of the guarantees. The interest rate on the debentures due to Statutory Trust held by the Corporation at December 31, 2003 was 4.39%. The debentures qualify as tier 1 capital under the Federal Reserve Board guidelines. Subordinated notes are unsecured and subordinated to other indebtedness of the Corporation. The long-term subordinated notes are scheduled to mature in various amounts periodically through the year 2013. At December 31, 2003, all of the long-term subordinated debt is redeemable by the holders prior to maturity at a discount equal to three months of interest. The Corporation may require the holder to give 30 days prior written notice. No sinking fund is required and none has been established to retire the debt. The weighted average interest rate on long-term subordinated debt was 5.13% at December 31, 2003 and 5.81% at December 31, 2002. Scheduled annual maturities for all of the long-term debt for each of the five years following December 31, 2003 are as follows (in thousands): 2004 $ 19,901 2005 79,419 2006 28,305 2007 51,830 2008 122,725 Later years 282,628 14. COMMITMENTS, CREDIT RISK AND CONTINGENCIES The Corporation has commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit which involve certain elements of credit risk in excess of the amount stated in the consolidated balance sheet. The Corporation's exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the customer is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. Consistent credit policies are used by the Corporation for both on- and off-balance sheet items. -23- Following is a summary of off-balance sheet credit risk information (in thousands): December 31 2003 2002 -------- -------- Commitments to extend credit $592,762 $500,741 Standby letters of credit 48,501 40,568 At December 31, 2003, funding of approximately 48% of the commitments to extend credit was dependent on the financial condition of the customer. The Corporation has the ability to withdraw such commitments at its discretion. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Based on management's credit evaluation of the customer, collateral may be deemed necessary. Collateral requirements vary and may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment and income-producing commercial properties. Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Corporation which may require payment at a future date. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers. The Corporation and persons to whom the Corporation may have indemnification obligations, in the normal course of business, are subject to various pending and threatened lawsuits in which claims for monetary damages are asserted. Other real estate owned includes a property that is subject to litigation. Should the outcome of the pending or threatened lawsuits be adverse, the value of the property will be impaired and other costs may be incurred. Management, after consultation with outside legal counsel, does not at the present time anticipate that the ultimate liability, arising out of such pending and threatened lawsuits will have a material adverse effect on the Corporation's financial position. At the present time, Management is not in a position to determine whether any pending or threatened litigation will have a material adverse effect on the Corporation's results of operations in any future reporting period. 15. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY During 2003, the Corporation completed the planned redemption of its Preferred Stock Series A and Preferred Stock Series B. In connection with the redemption, the Corporation issued shares of its common stock out of treasury stock in exchange for the remaining outstanding preferred stock. The Corporation issued 15,882 and 264,568 shares of its common stock for the remaining 19,174 and 98,851 shares of Preferred Stock Series A and Preferred Stock Series B, respectively. As a result of the redemption, the Corporation no longer has any shares of Preferred Series A or Preferred Series B stock outstanding. -24- 16.

STOCK INCENTIVE PLANS The Corporation has available up to 1,079,164 shares of common stock to be issued under the restricted stock and incentive bonus plans to key employees of the Corporation. All shares of stock awarded under these plans vest in equal installments over a five-year period on each anniversary of the date of grant. During 2003, the Corporation granted 9,200 shares of stock under these plans. The weighted average fair value of the restricted shares is $25.92. -25- The Corporation has available up to 4,485,328 shares of common stock to be issued under both incentive and non-qualified stock option plans to key employees and directors of the Corporation. The options vest in equal installments over periods ranging from three to ten years. The options are granted at a price equal to the fair market value at the date of the grant and are exercisable within ten years from the date of the grant. Because the exercise price of the Corporation's stock options equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant, no compensation expense is recognized in accordance with APB Opinion 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.

For the non-qualified pension plan, the change in plan assets reflects benefits paid and contributions to the plan in the same amount. This amount represents the actual benefit payments paid from general plan assets of $717,000 and $1.8 million for 2003 and 2002, respectively. The Corporation expects that no contributions will be made to the qualified pension plan in 2004, as that plan's fully funded status is expected to preclude any deductible contribution. Discount rates of 6.00% and 6.75% for 2003 and 2002, respectively, and a compensation rate of 4.00% for both 2003 and 2002, were used to determine the end of year benefit obligation. As of December 31, 2003 and 2002, the projected benefit obligation, accumulated benefit obligation and fair value of plan assets for pension plans with a projected benefit obligation in excess of plan assets and pension plans with an accumulated benefit obligation in excess of plan assets were as follows (in thousands): PROJECTED BENEFIT ACCUMULATED BENEFIT OBLIGATION EXCEEDS THE FAIR OBLIGATION EXCEEDS THE VALUE OF PLAN'S ASSETS FAIR VALUE OF PLAN'S ASSETS --------------------------- --------------------------- December 31 2003 2002 2003 2002 --------------------------- --------------------------- Projected benefit obligation $19,212 $16,733 $ 19,212 $16,733 Accumulated benefit obligation 18,585 15,689 18,585 15,689 Fair value of plan assets -- -- -- -- The amounts recognized in the Corporation's consolidated financial statements include the following (in thousands): December 31 2003 2002 -------- -------- Prepaid pension cost $ 21,451 $ 5,246 Accrued pension cost (16,813) (13,600) Additional minimum liability (1,868) (2,088) Accumulated other comprehensive loss 1,280 1,247 Intangible asset 589 841 -------- -------- Net amount recognized on balance sheet $ 4,639 $ (8,354) ======== ======== -27- The plan expense for the non-qualified benefit plan included the following components (in thousands): Year Ended December 31 2003 2002 2001 ------- ------- ------- Service costs $ 3,551 $ 2,587 $ 2,513 Interest cost 5,867 5,467 4,749 Expected return on plan assets (5,492) (4,771) (4,917) Special termination benefit 3,790 1,302 94 Curtailment gain (loss) 365 (324) -- Conforming adjustment -- -- 412 Adjustment for acquisition -- -- (174) Net amortization 928 194 68 ------- ------- ------- Net benefit expense $ 9,009 $ 4,455 $ 2,745 ======= ======= ======= Assumptions for the Year Ended December 31 2003 2002 2001 ---- ---- ---- Weighted average discount rate 6.75% 7.25% 7.50% Rates of increase in compensation levels 4.00% 4.00% 4.00% Expected long-term rate of return on assets 8.00% 8.00% 8.26% The expected long-term rate of return on plan assets has been established by considering historical and anticipated expected returns on the asset classes invested in by the pension trust and the allocation strategy currently in place among those classes. Following are asset allocations for the Corporation's retirement plan as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the target allocation for 2004, by asset category: TARGET ALLOCATION PERCENTAGE OF PLAN ASSETS December 31 2004 2003 2002 ---------- ---------- ------ ASSET CATEGORY Equity securities 45 - 65% 52% 49% Debt securities 33 - 53% 39% 43% Cash equivalents 0 - 5% 9% 8% Equity securities include 189,178 shares of the Corporation's common stock totaling $6.7 million (7.9% of total plan assets) and 165,884 shares totaling $4.6 million (7.9% of plan assets) as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Dividends received on these shares totaled $170,000 and $73,000 for 2003 and 2002, respectively. The Corporation's investment strategy is to diversify plan assets between a wide mix of securities within the equity and debt markets in an effort to allow the account the opportunity to meet the expected long-term rate of return requirements while minimizing short-term volatility. In this regard, the plan has targeted allocations within the equity securities category for domestic large cap, domestic mid cap, domestic small cap and international securities. Within the debt securities category, the plan has targeted allocation levels for U.S. Treasury, U.S. Agency, intermediate term corporate bonds and inflation protected securities. Certain subsidiaries of the Corporation participate in a qualified 401(k) defined contribution plan under which eligible employees may contribute a percentage of their salary. The Corporation matches 50 percent of an eligible employee's contribution on the first 6 percent that the employee defers. Employees are generally eligible to participate upon completing 90 days of service and having attained age 21. Employer contributions become 20 percent vested when an employee has completed one year of service, and vest at a rate of 20 percent per year thereafter. The Corporation's contribution expense was $1.4 million in 2003, $1.1 million in 2002 and $1.0 million in 2001. -28- 19.

REGULATORY MATTERS Quantitative measures established by regulators to ensure capital adequacy requires the Corporation and its banking subsidiary to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of total and tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined) and of tier 1 capital to average assets (as defined). Management believes, as of December 31, 2003, that the Corporation and its banking subsidiary meets all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject. As of December 31, 2003, the Corporation and its banking subsidiary has been categorized by the various regulators as "well capitalized" under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. The Corporation and its banking subsidiary are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Corporation's financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Corporation and its banking subsidiary 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 Corporation's and its banking subsidiary's capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. Following are the capital ratios as of December 31, 2003 for the Corporation and its banking subsidiary, First National Bank of Pennsylvania (dollars in thousands): WELL CAPITALIZED MINIMUM CAPITAL ACTUAL REQUIREMENTS REQUIREMENTS --------------------- --------------------- --------------------- AMOUNT RATIO AMOUNT RATIO AMOUNT RATIO -------- ----- -------- ----- -------- ----- Total Capital (to risk-weighted assets): F.N.B.

These ratios are above the well-capitalized and minimum capital requirements noted in the above table. The Corporation's banking subsidiary was required to maintain aggregate cash reserves with the Federal Reserve Bank amounting to $37.4 million at December 31, 2003. The Corporation also maintains deposits for various services such as check clearing. Certain limitations exist under applicable law and regulations by regulatory agencies regarding dividend payments to a parent by its subsidiaries. As of December 31, 2003, the Corporation's subsidiaries had $40.8 million of retained earnings available for distribution without prior regulatory approval. Under current Federal Reserve regulations, the Corporation's banking subsidiary is limited in the amount it may lend to non-bank affiliates, including the Corporation. Such loans must be secured by specified collateral. In addition, any such loans to a non-bank affiliate may not exceed 10% of the banking subsidiary's capital and surplus and the aggregate of loans to all such affiliates may not exceed 20%. The maximum amount that may be borrowed by the Corporation under these provisions approximated $44.8 million at December 31, 2003. -32- 23. BUSINESS SEGMENTS The Corporation operates in four reportable segments: a community bank, wealth management, an insurance agency and consumer finance. The Corporation's community bank offers services traditionally offered by full-service commercial banks, including commercial and individual demand and time deposit accounts and commercial, mortgage and individual installment loans. Wealth Management provides a broad range of personal and corporate fiduciary services including the administration of decedent and trust estates. In addition, it offers various alternative products, including securities brokerage and investment advisory services, mutual funds and annuities. The Corporation's insurance agency is a full-service insurance agency offering all lines of commercial and personal insurance through major carriers. The Corporation's consumer finance subsidiary primarily is involved in making personal installment loans to individuals with approximately 15% of its volume being derived from the purchase of installment sales finance contracts from retail merchants. This activity is funded through the sale of the Corporation's subordinated notes at the finance company's branch offices. The following tables provide financial information for these segments (in thousands). Other items shown in the tables represent the parent company, other non-bank subsidiaries and elimination, which are necessary for purposes of reconciling to the consolidated amounts.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each financial instrument: Cash and Due from Banks: For these short-term instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value. Securities: For both securities available for sale and securities held to maturity, fair value equals quoted market price, if available. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities. Loans: The fair value of fixed rate loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. The fair value of adjustable rate loans approximates the carrying amount. Deposits: The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts and certain money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed-maturity deposits is estimated by discounting future cash flows using rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. -37- Short-Term Borrowings: The carrying amounts for short-term borrowings approximate fair value for amounts that mature in 90 days or less. The fair value of subordinated notes is estimated by discounting future cash flows using rates currently offered. Long-Term Debt: The fair value of long-term debt is estimated by discounting future cash flows based on the market prices for the same or similar issues or on the current rates offered to the Corporation for debt of the same remaining maturities. The estimated fair values of the Corporation's financial instruments are as follows (in thousands): December 31 2003 2002 -------------------------- -------------------------- CARRYING CARRYING AMOUNT FAIR VALUE AMOUNT FAIR VALUE ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- FINANCIAL ASSETS Cash and short term investments $ 106,312 $ 106,312 $ 132,261 $ 132,261 Securities available for sale 878,667 878,667 657,547 657,547 Securities held to maturity 24,030 25,009 32,367 33,288 Net loans, including loans held for sale 3,214,493 3,203,947 3,212,401 3,282,071 FINANCIAL LIABILITIES Deposits $3,439,510 $3,461,240 $3,304,105 $3,330,595 Short-term borrowings 232,966 232,982 255,370 254,314 Long-term debt 584,808 588,834 400,056 425,649 -38-
