Form 10-K ITEM 7a. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK The primary objective of the Company's asset/liability management process is to maximize profits through management of the pricing and mix of assets and liabilities, while achieving acceptable levels of interest rate risk and liquidity risk and providing for adequate capitalization. Due to the fact that the assets and liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature, changes in interest rates and monetary or fiscal policy affect its financial condition and have potentially the greatest impact on the net income of the Company. The Company's asset/liability management program is designed to minimize the impact of sudden and sustained changes in interest rates on the net present value (NPV) of equity and net interest income. The Company's primary market risk exposure is interest rate risk and, to a lesser extent, liquidity risk. All of the Company's transactions are denominated in U.S. dollars with no specific foreign exchange exposure. The Company has minimal agricultural loan assets and therefore would not have a specific exposure to changes in commodity prices. The Company has no market risk sensitive instruments held for trading purposes. As part of its effort to monitor and manage interest rate risk the Company uses simulation analysis and net present value analysis. The simulation analysis monitors interest rate risk through the impact changes in interest rates can have on net income. At December 31, 1997, the Company analyzed the effect of a presumed 100 and 200 basis point increase and decrease in interest rates through its simulation analysis. The results indicated no significant impact on net interest income for 1998, and were within the five percent (5%) of net interest income guidelines established by the Company. While the results of the simulation indicated no significant impact on net interest income over the next twelve months, they did indicate the Company to be negatively impacted by rising interest rates and positively impacted by falling interest rates due to the liability sensitive nature of the balance sheet. The NPV analysis is used to measure the Company's interest rate risk by computing estimated changes in NPV of its cash flows from assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet items in the event of a range of assumed changes in market interest rates. NPV represents the market value of equity and is equal to the market value of assets minus the market value of liabilities, with adjustments made for off-balance sheet items. This analysis assesses the risk of loss in market risk sensitive instruments in the event of a sudden and sustained 100 to 200 basis point increase or decrease in market interest rates. The Board of Directors has adopted an interest rate risk policy which establishes maximum changes in the NPV of 20% in the event of a sudden and sustained 100 to 200 basis point increase or decrease in market interest rates. The following table presents the Company's projected change in NPV for the various rate shock levels at December 31, 1997. All market risk sensitive instruments presented in this table are 7 Mahoning National Bancorp, Inc. Form 10-K held to maturity or available for sale. The Company has no trading securities. Changes In Interest Rate Change In % Change NPV of Equity/ (basis points) NPV of Equity In NPV NPV of Assets -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -200 $ 14,969 17.29% 12.47% -100 8,853 10.23 11.82 0 2,852 3.29 11.18 +100 (3,038) (3.51) 10.53 +200 (8,819) (10.19) 9.89 The above table indicates that at December 31, 1997, in the event of a sudden and sustained increase in prevailing market interest rates, the Company's NPV would be expected to decrease, and that in the event of a sudden and sustained decrease in prevailing market interest rates, the Company's NPV would be expected to increase. At December 31, 1997, the Company's estimated changes in NPV were within the targets established by the Board of Directors. As with any method of measuring interest rate risk, certain shortcomings are inherent in the NPV approach. For example, although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or periods of repricing, they may react in different degrees to changes in market interest rates. Also, as a result of competition, the interest rates on certain assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in market interest rates, while interest rates on other types of assets and liabilities may lag behind changes in market rates. In the event of a change in interest rates, expected rates of repayment on assets and early withdrawal levels from certificates of deposit would likely deviate from those scheduled. In addition, the proportion of adjustable-rate loans in the Bank's portfolio could decrease in future periods if market interest rates remain at or decrease below current levels due to refinance activity. Further, in the event of a change in interest rates, prepayment and early withdrawal levels would likely deviate from those assumed in the table. Finally, the ability of many borrowers to repay their adjustable-rate debt may decrease in the event of an increase in interest rates. In order to minimize the potential for adverse effects of material and prolonged increases in interest rates on the Company's results of operations, management has implemented and continues to monitor asset and liability management strategies to better match the maturities and repricing terms of the Company's interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. These strategies include: (1) emphasizing the origination of adjustable-rate mortgage loans ("ARMs"); and (2) selling a portion of its fixed-rate residential mortgage loan originations with servicing retained. Deposits, which are the Company's primary funding source, are priced based upon competitive factors and the availability of prudent lending 8 Mahoning National Bancorp, Inc. Form 10-K and investment opportunities. Pursuant to this strategy, the Company has generally not offered the highest rates available in its deposit market except upon specific occasions and for specific products, to control deposit flow or when market conditions have created opportunities to attract longer-term deposits at favorable rates. In addition, the Company does not pursue an aggressive growth strategy which would force the Company to focus exclusively on competitors' rates rather than deposit affordability. This policy has assisted the Company in controlling its cost of funds. The Company has also adopted a strategy of emphasizing transaction deposit account growth as these products are less susceptible to repricing in a rising interest rate environment. An additional source of liquidity is derived from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati (FHLB). The FHLB provides short term funding alternatives, with an available line of credit of $52.138 million at December 31, 1997, and funding for one-to-four family residential mortgage loans and allows the Company to better manage its interest rate risk. A derivative financial instrument includes futures, forwards, interest rate swaps, option contracts and other financial instruments with similar characteristics. The Company has not purchased derivative financial instruments in the past and does not presently intend to purchase such instruments in the near future. However, the Company is party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These instruments involve to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. The commitments to extend credit generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since some of these commitments may not be utilized, or utilized in amounts less than the total committed, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The majority of the unfunded commitments at December 31, 1997 ($153.115 million) are variable rate commitments, with approximately 20% or $31 million having fixed rates. Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party up to a stipulated amount and with specified terms and conditions. The Company's exposure to interest rate risk is reviewed on a quarterly basis by the Board of Directors and the ALCO. If estimated changes to NPV and net interest income are not within the limits established by the Board, the Board may direct management to adjust its asset and liability mix to bring interest rate risk within board-approved limits. 9 Mahoning National Bancorp, Inc.
