ITEM 1. BUSINESS - ------- -------- GENERAL - ------- Capital Holdings, Inc. (the "Company") is a one-bank holding company with headquarters in Sylvania, Ohio. The Company was formed in July, 1988, for the purpose of owning and organizing Capital Bank, N.A. (the "Bank"), a national banking association which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The Bank opened for business on August 24, 1989, with $12.4 million in equity capital contributed by the Company. As of December 31, 1997, the total assets of the Company were $669.5 million with equity capital of $50.5 million. At December 31, 1996, the Company's total assets were $559.7 million with equity capital of $41.6 million. On December 31, 1997 and 1996, the Bank paid the parent Company a $4.0 million and $10.0 million, respectively, cash dividend which was then subordinated back into the Bank. See "Capital Resources and Dividends" narrative in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for further discussion. The Bank has focused its business on corporate, executive and professional customers while pursuing a deposit gathering strategy of offering money market checking and savings accounts in addition to certificates of deposits at attractive rates to mid-sized to large depositors with an emphasis of minimizing the operating costs of obtaining these deposits. The Bank is located in Sylvania, Ohio, a suburban community northwest of Toledo, Ohio. In addition to drawing customers from Sylvania, the Bank also draws customers from Southeast Michigan as well as Lucas and Wood counties in Ohio. The Bank has defined its market niche as serving small to mid-sized businesses, professionals and their families. The Company owns its main office facility located at 5520 Monroe Street, Sylvania, Ohio through a wholly-owned subsidiary, CBNA Building Company. The Company and the Bank operate no other offices. COMPETITION - ----------- The Bank's primary competition for banking services comes from other financial institutions located in Lucas and Wood counties. There are currently 14 commercial banks, 5 savings and loans, 1 savings bank and 48 credit unions believed to be operating physical facilities in these counties. Many of these institutions are affiliates of companies which have significantly greater assets than the Bank. As of June 30, 1997 (the most recent date for which information is readily available), total deposits held by financial institutions in Lucas and Wood counties approximated $7.1 billion. Since its opening on August 24, 1989, the Bank has grown from $12.4 million in assets to $669.7 million in assets as of December 31, 1997. The management of the Bank believes the primary reason for the Bank's success in deposit and loan growth is tied directly to its niche orientation, and the fact that its products are delivered through highly personalized service, as well as being very competitive with other financial institutions in its market area. EMPLOYEES - --------- The Company's primary purpose is to operate as a bank holding company for its bank subsidiary, Capital Bank, N.A. Therefore, the Company has no compensated employees. As of December 31, 1997, the Bank had 98 full-time equivalent employees, which represents a 26% increase in staff since December 31, 1996, at which time there were 78 full-time equivalent employees, and a 654% increase in staff since the Bank opened in August of 1989 with 13 full-time equivalent employees. None of the employees are covered by a collective bargaining agreement. REGULATION - ---------- The Company is a registered bank holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 (the "Banking Act") as amended, and as such is subject to regulation by the Federal Reserve Board. A bank holding company is required to file with the Federal Reserve Board annual reports and other information regarding its business operations and those of its subsidiaries. A bank holding company and its subsidiary banks are also subject to examination by the Federal Reserve Board. The Bank is regulated by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency ("OCC") as a National Banking Association. Additionally, the Bank is regulated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System ("FRS") as a member of the Federal Reserve System. The regulatory agencies have the authority to regularly examine the Bank and the Bank is subject to the regulations promulgated by its supervisory agencies. In addition, the deposits of the Bank are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") and, therefore, the Bank is subject to FDIC regulations. 4 ITEM 2. PROPERTIES - ------- ---------- The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, CBNA Building Company, owns real estate at 5520 Monroe Street which includes a 50,000 square foot main office facility. A building expansion of 25,000 square feet was started in the third quarter of 1996 with final occupancy taken in the second quarter of 1997. The facility provides the Bank with Class A office space and all necessary technological supports to operate an effective, personalized bank which meets the goals of the Company and the Bank. Management of the Company and Bank as well as the respective Boards of Directors of these organizations, believe that the facility will be sufficient for expected growth in the Bank for the foreseeable future. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS - ------- ----------------- The Company and the Bank from time to time become involved in such legal proceedings as are incurred in and incidental to the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, any losses resulting from such proceedings will not be material to the financial condition, liquidity, or results of operations of the Company or the Bank. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS - ------- --------------------------------------------------- NONE. PART II. ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED SHAREHOLDER MATTERS - ------- --------------------------------------------------------------------- There is no established public market for the common stock of the Company. There were 980 shareholders of record as of March 10, 1998. In 1997, three quarterly cash dividends totaling $984,487 were declared on the Company's common stock. As of December 31, 1997, $645,860 of those dividends had been paid out in cash. The dividend declared represented $.17 per share per quarter for 1997. The Company expects to continue paying quarterly cash dividends at approximately the current rate. The ability of the Company to pay cash dividends is dependent in large part on the ability of the Bank to pay dividends to the Company. The Bank is a national banking association and, as such, is subject to restrictions and limitations on the amount and timing of the dividends it may pay pursuant to the national banking laws and regulations. See "Liquidity" narrative in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for further discussion. Valuation of the Company's Common Stock is performed by an independent financial consulting firm experienced in appraisals of commercial banks and bank holding companies. The fair value of the Company's Common Stock was $47.00, $37.50 and $29.95 per share at December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively, after giving retroactive effect to a 6% stock dividend issued during 1996 and 1995. 5 ITEM 6.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND - ------- --------------------------------------------------------------- RESULTS OF OPERATIONS --------------------- The following narrative presents Management's discussion and analysis of the Company's financial position and results of operations for the past three years. The objective of this financial review is to enhance the reader's understanding of the accompanying tables, consolidated financial statements, the related notes thereto, and statistical information presented elsewhere in this report. The Company was organized in July 1988 and commenced banking operations in August 1989. The Company achieved profitable operations during 1990 and continued to experience significant growth in assets, deposits and profitability during the three years ended December 31, 1997. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS --------------------- NET INTEREST INCOME - ------------------- Net interest income, the difference between revenue generated from earning assets and the interest cost of funding those assets, is the Company's primary source of earnings. Net interest income increased 19%, 17% and 13% in 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively. TABLE 1 is an analysis of factors affecting this change. TABLE 2 sets forth an analysis of the changes in interest earned and interest paid resulting from changes in volume and rates during each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 1997. Net interest margin (net interest income divided by average earning assets) was 3.58% for 1997, 3.59% for 1996 and 3.54% for 1995. Average loans outstanding increased 23%, 20% and 31% in 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Average yield on these loans was 8.83%, 8.79% and 8.98%, respectively. The changes in yield are reflective of the change in market rates and the refinancing opportunities available during these periods. Securities represent 28% of the total average earning assets of the Company at December 31, 1997, and the average yields were 6.62%, 6.65% and 6.71% as of December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The changes in yield are due to changes in market rates and portfolio mix. Average total interest bearing liabilities increased to $517 million in 1997 compared with $432 million in 1996 and $376 million in 1995. The average cost of interest bearing liabilities was 5.23%, 5.17% and 5.30% for the same periods. The increase in yield is a direct reflection of the increased volume and increasing short term rates. 7 TABLE 1 - CONSOLIDATED AVERAGE BALANCE SHEETS AND ANALYSIS OF NET INTEREST INCOME (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) 1997 1996 1995 -------------------------------- ---------------------------- ---------------------------------- INTEREST AVERAGE INTEREST AVERAGE INTEREST AVERAGE AVERAGE EARNED OR YIELD OR AVERAGE EARNED OR YIELD OR AVERAGE EARNED OR YIELD OR BALANCE PAID COST BALANCE PAID COST BALANCE PAID COST -------------------------------- ---------------------------- ---------------------------------- Interest Earning Assets: Securities: Taxable $148,361 $9,671 6.52% $136,202 $8,915 6.55% $126,943 $8,386 6.61% Tax exempt 13,623 1,058 7.77% 13,321 1,035 7.77% 13,121 1,017 7.75% Loans 418,029 36,924 8.83% 340,035 29,899 8.79% 283,577 25,466 8.98% Federal funds sold 5,268 300 5.69% 2,660 142 5.34% 3,873 229 5.91% -------------------- ------------------ --------------------- Total Interest Earning Assets 585,281 47,953 8.19% 492,218 39,991 8.12% 427,514 35,098 8.21% Noninterest Earning Assets: Cash and due from banks 13,191 10,641 9,593 Bank premises and equipment-net 8,723 4,797 4,211 Other assets 7,073 6,051 5,662 Less allowance for credit losses (6,388) (5,380) (4,574) --------- -------- --------- $607,880 $508,327 $442,406 ========= ======== ========= Interest Bearing Liabilities: Interest checking $138,910 5,847 4.21% $99,839 3,799 3.81% $89,608 3,728 4.16% Savings deposits 17,671 509 2.88% 19,449 566 2.91% 20,729 674 3.25% Time deposits 333,114 19,296 5.79% 278,101 16,086 5.78% 236,607 13,897 5.87% Short-term borrowings 26,849 1,374 5.12% 34,423 1,854 5.39% 29,457 1,665 5.65% -------------------- ------------------ --------------------- Total Interest Bearing Liabilities 516,544 27,026 5.23% 431,812 22,305 5.17% 376,401 19,964 5.30% Noninterest Bearing Liabilities: Demand deposits 42,372 35,307 31,282 Other 4,404 3,517 3,054 --------- -------- --------- Total Liabilities 563,320 470,636 410,737 Shareholders' Equity 44,560 37,691 31,669 --------- -------- --------- $607,880 $508,327 $442,406 ========= ======== ========= Net Interest Income $20,927 $17,686 $15,134 ======= ======= ======= Net Yield on Interest Earning Assets 3.58% 3.59% 3.54% ====== ====== ====== NOTE: Nonaccrual loans are included in average loan balances.

Changes in securities reflect taxable equivalent adjustments. 9 PROVISION FOR CREDIT LOSSES - --------------------------- The provision for credit losses was $1,005,000, $980,000 and $850,000 for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Total allowance for credit losses as a percentage of total loans outstanding at year end was 1.5%, 1.6% and 1.5% for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Management maintains the allowance for credit losses at a level adequate to absorb potential future losses. The evaluation performed is based upon a continuous review of historical credit loss experience, specifically identified problem loans, composition and growth of the loan portfolio, current and projected economic conditions and other pertinent factors. Due to its focus on credit quality, the Company has experienced minimal problems with asset quality and loan charge-offs. The Company has had four consecutive years of no loan charge-offs and a total of only $216,000 in charge-offs since its inception. Additional information regarding the provision and allowance for credit losses is contained in the "Earning Assets" narrative. OTHER INCOME - ------------ Other income consists primarily of merchant fees, credit card interchange fees and service fees on deposit accounts. Total other income of approximately $1,205,000 for 1997 increased approximately $331,000 or 38% when compared to 1996 and 16% when 1996 is compared to 1995. Merchant and credit card interchange fees combined was approximately $777,000, $620,000 and $374,000 in 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Service charges on deposit accounts were approximately $313,000, $253,000 and $252,000 in 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively. OTHER EXPENSES - -------------- Noninterest expense increased 22% in 1997 and 16% in 1996. Salaries and benefits, which accounted for 53% in both 1997 and 1996 of noninterest expenses, increased by 22% in 1997 and 24% in 1996. Full-time equivalent employees increased 26% in 1997 and 22% in 1996. Management continues to control overhead expense without impairing the quality of service provided to customers. Operating from a single location has proven both efficient and effective. The Company's total assets per employee approximated $6.8 million and $7.2 million at December 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively; this compares very favorably to banks of similar asset size. The Company's efficiency ratio, computed by dividing other expenses by net interest income plus other income, was 49.4% for 1997 and 48.4% for 1996. The increase in the efficiency ratio for 1997 is due primarily to the increased occupancy costs of the building expansion. This ratio should improve going forward as we anticipate continued growth in earnings from this single operating facility. The Company's low ratio is indicative of efficient overhead cost control In 1997, occupancy costs increased 88% over 1996 levels, due to the building expansion becoming fully occupied in the second quarter of 1997. Depreciation expense for 1997 was approximately $470,000. This represented a 56% increase over 1996's balance of approximately $302,000. During 1997, the assessment paid by the Company to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) was $62,000. This compares to only $2,000 being paid in 1996 due to an August 1995 FDIC vote to reduce premiums banks pay on deposits in that year. The FDIC returned to charging an assessment per $100 of deposits, based on your risk classification, in 1997, per the Deposit Insurance Act of 1996. The Company is currently being assessed the lowest premium rate established by the FDIC because it is classified in the highest capital rating category. PROVISION FOR FEDERAL INCOME TAXES - ---------------------------------- The Federal income tax expense was $3,234,000, $2,681,000 and $2,256,000 in 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively. During each of these years, the Company realized tax savings from the purchase of tax-free municipal bonds and from a tax-exempt loan. The effective tax rate was 32.3%, 31.9% and 31.8% in 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively. FINANCIAL CONDITION ------------------- The following discussions address key elements of financial condition, including earning assets, the sources of funds supporting earning assets, credit quality and experience, asset and liability management, and capital adequacy. 10 EARNING ASSETS -------------- LOANS - ----- Loans comprised 71%, 69% and 66% of the Company's average earning assets in 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Loan volume and quality continue to be strong as the Company grows. The increase in net loans outstanding over the prior year was $88 million, $54 million and $73 million in 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The commercial loan portfolio represents loans to business interests, located primarily within the Company's defined market area, with no significant industry concentration. The residential real estate portfolio is primarily adjustable rate mortgages that qualify for sale into the secondary market; however, the Company has chosen to retain all residential mortgage loans in its portfolio.

(B) Loans are reported at the earliest of maturity or repricing opportunity. (C) Occasionally extensions or renewals of loan obligations are requested. These are reviewed on an individual basis and granted if deemed appropriate. Such extensions, however, do not materially alter the anticipated loan maturity tables as reported. The Bank's credit policy establishes guidelines to manage credit risk and asset quality. These guidelines include loan review and early identification of problem loans to ensure sound credit decisions. The Bank's credit policies and procedures are meant to minimize the risk and uncertainties inherent in lending. In following these policies and procedures, management must rely on estimates, appraisals and evaluations of loans and the possibility that changes in these could occur quickly because of changing economic conditions. Nonperforming assets consist of loans on nonaccrual and loans over 90-days past due as to principal and interest and still in an accrual status. Nonaccrual loans are loans which are 90-days past due and with respect to which, in management's opinion, collection of interest is doubtful. These loans no longer accrue interest and are accounted for on a cash basis. Loans which are 90-days or more past due and still accruing interest are loans which, in management's opinion, are well secured and are in the process of collection. Nonperforming loans amounted to $673,000, $454,000, $138,000 and $25,000 at December 31, 1997, 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively, which consistently represents less than .15% of total loans for the same periods. Potential problem loans are those loans which are on the Bank's "Watch List" and exhibit characteristics that could cause the loans to become nonperforming or require restructuring in the future. Management reviews this list regularly and adjusts for changing conditions. 12 TABLE 5 is a summary of credit loss experience for the five years ending December 31, 1997.

SECURITIES - ---------- During December 1993, the Company elected to adopt Financial Accounting Standards Board Standard No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" (FAS No. 115). Securities available for sale are stated at fair value, with the unrealized gains and losses, net of income tax, reported as a separate component of shareholders' equity. The unrealized gain recorded at December 31, 1997, approximated $1,357,000 (net of $698,000 in deferred income taxes); the unrealized gain recorded at December 31, 1996, approximated $531,000 (net of $273,000 in deferred income taxes); and the unrealized gain recorded at December 31, 1995, approximated $1,233,000 (net of $635,000 in deferred income taxes). The designation of such securities is made by management based upon liquidity needs at the time of purchase. There was no designation of securities as available for sale prior to 1992. In November of 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued "A Guide to Implementation of Statement 115 on Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" (the Guide). In implementing the Guide, a one time opportunity was available for a company to reassess its securities classifications and transfer any or all held to maturity securities to available for sale. In accordance with the provisions of the Guide, the Company elected to transfer all of its held to maturity investment securities at December 28, 1995, to available for sale, at fair value of approximately $67.3 million. The securities available for sale (SAFS) portfolio at December 31, 1997, is composed primarily of U.S. Treasury (19.5%) and U.S. Government Agency Securities (60.4%). The remaining 20.1% is composed of certain other securities. The quality of this portfolio is 80% AAA rated bonds with an average maturity of 2.3 years. The SAFS portfolio represented 25% of total assets at December 31, 1997, and 28% at December 31, 1996. 14 The SAFS portfolio at December 31, 1997, includes securities issued by the State of Ohio and the State of Michigan with the following values: FAIR AMORTIZED VALUE COST ----- ---- (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) State of Ohio $8,840 $8,455 State of Michigan 4,221 4,083 TABLES 7 and 8 set forth the carrying value of the SAFS portfolio at the dates indicated, and provide an analysis of the maturities and average yields on a fully taxable equivalent basis (assuming a 34% tax rate) as of December 31, 1997.

As discussed above, the entire SHTM portfolio was transferred to SAFS during 1995. During 1993, approximately $49 million of SHTM were transferred to SAFS in connection with the implementation of FAS No. 115. TABLE 9 sets forth the carrying value of the SHTM portfolio at the dates indicated. TABLE 9 - SECURITIES HELD TO MATURITY (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) CARRYING VALUE AT DECEMBER 31, 1997 1996 1995 1994 1993 ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- U.S. government securities and agency obligations - - - $42,441 $36,432 Corporate debt securities - - - 13,749 13,250 Municipal obligations - - - 12,475 10,890 Mortgage-backed securities - - - 3,225 3,348 Other securities - - - 30 25 --------- -------- -------- ------- ------- TOTAL - - - $71,920 $63,945 ========= ======== ======== ======= ======= FEDERAL FUNDS SOLD - ------------------ Short-term Federal funds sold are used to manage interest rate sensitivity and to meet liquidity needs. During 1997, 1996 and 1995, the average balance of these funds represented less than 1% of average total assets for the same periods. As the Bank has grown, the ability to manage daily liquidity needs has become stable and the use of daily Federal funds sold has been maintained at a very manageable level. DEFERRED FEDERAL INCOME TAXES - ----------------------------- Deferred Federal income taxes represent a net asset of $1,086,000 at December 31, 1997. This amount is comprised primarily of deferred taxes relating to the nondeductible portion of the credit allowance offset by the unrealized gains on available for sale securities which total $2,113,000 and $698,000, respectively. Certain limits exist for deduction of the provision related to credit losses that exceeds actual experience. With insignificant loan charge-offs, the Company's tax deduction to date, has been minimal. Sufficient taxable income in prior years exists to realize the deferred tax assets that are recorded. 16 SOURCES OF FUNDS ---------------- DEPOSITS - -------- The Company's major source of investable funds is core deposits from retail and business customers. These core deposits consist of interest bearing and noninterest bearing deposits, excluding certificates of deposit equal to or greater than $100,000. These core deposits grew to $373 million in 1997 from $332 million in 1996 and $297 million in 1995. Certificates of deposit equal to or greater than $100,000 grew to $206 million in 1997 from $138 million in 1996 and $110 million in 1995. The continued strong marketing effort to secure customers willing to consolidate deposits into a single investment (ie. certificate of deposit) has allowed the Company to support a strong loan growth. These funds are used to balance rate sensitivity and as a supplement to core deposits. Since the Company places less emphasis on mass marketing of retail products, its customer base consists of higher net worth individuals and their related companies, and retirees. The net growth, since the Company opened in 1989, has been without significant fluctuation and the deposit base has been reliable. Management anticipates a continuation of these trends. Average deposits increased 23% in 1997, 15% in 1996 and 21% in 1995. TABLE 10 is a summary of the average amount of, and the average rate paid on, each of the Bank's deposit categories. TABLE 10 - AVERAGE DEPOSITS (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) 1997 1996 1995 ---- ---- ---- AMOUNT RATE AMOUNT RATE AMOUNT RATE ------ ---- ------ ---- ------ ---- Noninterest bearing deposits $42,372 $ 35,307 $ 31,282 Money market accounts 138,910 4.21% 99,839 3.81% 89,608 4.16% Savings 17,671 2.88% 19,449 2.91% 20,729 3.25% Other time deposits 333,114 5.79% 278,101 5.78% 236,607 5.87% -------- -------- -------- TOTAL $532,067 $432,696 $378,226 ======== ======== ======== The increase (decrease) in average deposits by category for 1997 was as follows: Noninterest bearing deposits, 20%; money market accounts, 39%; savings, (9%) and other time deposits, 20%. Certificates of deposit of $100,000 or more grew 49% in 1997. As the Company grows, the market penetration of the retail customer base expands. In addition, customers are continually consolidating banking relationships, taking advantage of the Company's competitively priced deposit products. The maturity distribution of certificates of deposit of $100,000 or more at December 31, 1997, is reflective of the interest rate environment during 1997, which had more favorable rates in long-term investments.

Short-term borrowings are primarily composed of advances from The Federal Home Loan Bank (52.5%). The remaining 47.5% is composed of securities sold under agreements to repurchase which are secured transactions, a majority of which mature within one year or less and Federal funds borrowings. Additional information regarding securities sold under agreements to repurchase and Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings is summarized below: SECURITIES SOLD UNDER AGREEMENTS TO REPURCHASE FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK ------------------------ ---------------------- 1997 1996 1995 1997 1996 1995 ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) Weighted average interest rate at year-end 4.20% 4.31% 5.34% 5.61% 5.56% 5.58% Amount outstanding at year-end $14,395 $15,531 $24,203 $15,900 $19,000 $8,000 Maximum amount outstanding at any month end 14,395 26,012 26,003 18,860 19,000 9,000 Daily average amount outstanding during the year 12,926 21,255 23,098 12,216 12,015 5,759 Weighted average interest rate for the year 4.57% 5.30% 5.69% 5.60% 5.51% 5.45% CAPITAL RESOURCES AND DIVIDENDS - ------------------------------- Shareholders' equity is a stable, noninterest bearing source of funds which provides support for asset growth and is the primary component of capital. Shareholders' equity at December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995 was $50.5 million, $41.6 million and $36.1 million, respectively. During 1997 and 1996, the Bank paid a $4,000,000 and $10,000,000, respectively, cash dividend to the parent company. The parent company then issued $4,000,000 and $10,000,000 in 1997 and 1996, respectively, in subordinated debt to the Bank. Principal is due at maturity, January 1, 2008, and January 1, 2007, respectively, with interest payable at 6.75%. In April 1993, shareholders voted to increase the authorized common stock from 1.5 million shares to 3.0 million shares. The Company issued a 6% stock dividend in June of 1996, 1995, 1994 and 1993. In June 1997, the Company began to issue quarterly cash dividends of $.17 per share. This totaled $984,487 for 1997. The following shows consolidated operating and capital ratios of the Company for each of the past three years ended December 31: 1997 1996 1995 ---- ---- ---- Return on average assets 1.12% 1.13% 1.10% Return on average equity 15.22% 15.19% 15.30% Average equity to average assets 7.33% 7.41% 7.16% Tier 1 capital (1) 9.81% 10.14% 10.19% Tier 2 capital (2) 11.06% 11.39% 11.44% Leverage (3) 7.67% 7.60% 7.47% (1) Shareholders' equity less the effect of securities available for sale market value adjustment per FAS No. 115 and intangibles, if applicable, computed as a ratio to risk-adjusted assets, as defined in the 1994 risk-based capital guidelines. (2) Tier 1 capital plus qualifying credit loss allowance, computed as a ratio to risk-adjusted assets, as defined in the 1994 risk- based capital guidelines. (3) Tier 1 capital, computed as a ratio to the latest quarter's average assets, less goodwill, if applicable. The Company's capital ratios are well in excess of the minimum regulatory risk-based capital requirements of 4% for Tier 1 capital and leverage and 8% for Tier 2 capital. 18 YEAR 2000 - --------- The Company has determined that it will need to modify or replace portions of its software and hardware so that its computer systems will function properly with respect to dates in the year 2000 and beyond. The Company has initiated discussions with third-party software and hardware suppliers and determined that the Company will have available the operating systems that are fully compliant. The Company has developed a plan to modify its information technology and will begin the conversion by the middle of 1998. All applications and hardware upgrades will be substantially complete by early 1999 at an estimated cost of $100,000 to $250,000, which will be capitalized, that is attributable to Year 2000 issues. We do not expect this project to have a significant effect on operations. The Company's Year 2000 initiative is being managed by a team of internal staff and the internal costs of this activity, which will be expensed, is not expected to be material to the Company's financial position. The Company is currently evaluating the Year 2000 readiness of its significant suppliers, large customers and other financial institutions to ensure that those parties have appropriate plans to remediate Year 2000 issues where their systems interface with the Company's systems or otherwise impact its operations. The Company is assessing the extent to which its operations are vulnerable should those organizations fail to remediate properly their computer systems. While the Company believes its planning efforts are adequate to address its Year 2000 concerns, there can be no guarantee that the systems of other companies on which the Company's systems and operations rely will be converted on a timely basis and will not have a material effect on the Company. The costs of Year 2000 modifications and date of completion will be closely monitored and are based on management's best estimates. Actual results, however, could differ from those anticipated. LIQUIDITY AND INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY --------------------------------------- LIQUIDITY - --------- Liquidity is measured by the Company's ability to raise funds through deposits, borrowed funds, capital or cash flow from the repayment of loans. These funds are used to meet deposit withdrawals, maintain reserve requirements, fund loans and operate the Company. Liquidity is achieved through the growth of core deposits and liquid assets, including securities available for sale, matured securities and Federal funds sold. Asset and liability management is the process of managing the balance sheet to achieve a mix of earning assets and liabilities that maximizes profitability, while providing adequate liquidity. The Company's major source of funds is a substantial base of core funds, defined as core deposits plus shareholders' equity and other liabilities. The Company supplements core funds by regularly issuing certificates of deposit and repurchase agreements. The Company also has the ability to borrow money on a daily basis through correspondent banks and the Federal Home Loan Bank to satisfy short-term liquidity needs. At December 31, 1997, and 1996, the Company had $36.2 million and $8.2 million, respectively, of unused lines of credit. During January 1997, the Company's Board of Directors approved an increase in the investment by the Bank in the Federal Home Loan Bank from $2.9 million to $6.0 million. This increased the Company's available line of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank to $36.0 million. The Company currently holds $3.6 million in Federal Home Loan Bank stock. In addition to normal loan funding and deposit flow, the Company also needs to maintain liquidity to meet the demands of certain unfunded loan commitments and standby letters of credit. As of December 31, 1997, the Company had a total of $186.9 million in unfunded loan commitments and $13.4 million in unfunded standby letters of credit. Of the total unfunded loan commitments, $136.5 million were commitments available as lines of credit to be drawn at any time as customers' cash needs vary, and $50.4 million were for loan commitments scheduled to close and become funded within the next six months. The Company monitors fluctuations in balances and manages its overall liquidity, taking into account these unfunded commitments. On a parent company basis, the Company's primary source of funds is dividends paid by the subsidiary Bank. The ability of the Bank to pay dividends is subject to limitations under various laws and regulations and to prudent and sound banking principles. As of January 1, 1998, the Bank must earn $911,000 or obtain the prior regulatory approval of the Comptroller of the Currency for payment of dividends to the Company. 19 INTEREST RATE RISK - ------------------ Balance sheet structure and interest rate changes play important roles in the growth of net interest income. The Company's Asset/Liability Committee (ALCO) manages the overall rate sensitivity and mix of the balance sheet to anticipate and minimize the effects of interest rate fluctuations and maintain a consistent net interest margin. The relative measure of assets and liabilities that will mature or are scheduled to reprice within various time categories is known as "GAP." Because the Company has more liabilities than assets repricing within one year at December 31, 1997, it has a negative GAP and is considered liability sensitive. In a rising rate environment, this liability surplus would most likely detract from net interest income. In a declining rate environment, the effect would most likely be favorable. Experience has shown that this generalization does not fully capture the true dynamics of interest rate changes since asset and liability rates do not adjust equally. INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY - ------------------------- A number of measures are used to monitor and manage interest rate risk, including income simulation and interest sensitivity (GAP) analyses. An income simulation model is management's primary tool used to assess the direction and magnitude of variations in net interest income resulting from changes in interest rates. Key assumptions in the model include prepayment speeds on various loan and investment assets; cash flows and maturities of financial instruments held for purposes other than trading; changes in market conditions, loan volumes, and pricing; deposit sensitivity; client preferences; and management's financial capital plans. These assumptions are inherently uncertain, subject to fluctuation and revision in a dynamic environment and , as a result, the model cannot precisely estimate net interest income or exactly predict the impact of higher or lower interest rates on net interest income. Actual results will differ from simulated results due to timing, magnitude, and frequency of interest rate changes and changes in market conditions and management strategies, among other factors. Results of the multiple simulations done as of December 31, 1997, suggest that the Corporation could expect net interest income to increase by approximately $754,000 (if interest rates gradually decline by 100 basis points over the next twelve months) and, to decrease by approximately $744,000 (if interest rates gradually increase by 100 basis points over the next twelve months) from 1997 levels of net interest income. These variances in net interest income were well within the Company's policy parameters established to manage such risk. In addition to changes in interest rates, the level of future net interest income is also dependent on a number of other variables, including the growth, composition and absolute levels of deposits, loans, and other earning assets and interest bearing liabilities, economic and competitive conditions, client preferences and other factors. TABLE 12, Interest Rate Sensitivity Analysis, shows as of December 31, 1997, assets and liabilities which are maturing at various periods in time and which will be subject to repricing. A formal asset/liability management analysis is performed on a monthly basis by Austin Advisors, Inc., a firm specializing in consulting and providing assistance to banks. This information is presented and reviewed by the "ALCO" Committee.
