Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
September 30, 1998 (Dollars in Thousands)
NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included. Operating results for the three- or nine-month periods ended
September 30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the year ended December 31, 1998. Certain reclassifications have
been made to amounts previously reported in order to conform to current period
presentations. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial
statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 1997.
NOTE B - PER SHARE DATA
The per share data is based upon the weighted average number of shares,
including common stock equivalents, outstanding during the period, as restated
for the two for one stock split effective May 1, 1997.
NOTE C - ACQUISITIONS
On August 20, 1998, the Company completed the acquisition of Enfin, Inc. and its
subsidiary, Enterprise Bank. The acquisition was accounted on a
pooling-of-interest accounting basis and, therefore, all historical financial
presentations have been restated to reflect the pooling-of-interests accounting
method. On November 10, 1998, the shareholders of both the Company and Trumbull
Financial Corporation approved the merger of the two companies.
NOTE D - COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
As of January 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standard (SFAS) No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income". SFAS No. 130
establishes new rules for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and
its components; however, the adoption of this Statement had no impact on the
Company's net income or shareholders' equity. SFAS No. 130 requires unrealized
gains or losses on the Company's available-for-sale securities to be included in
other comprehensive income. Prior year financial statements have been
reclassified to conform to the requirements of SFAS No. 130.
During the first nine months of 1998 and 1997, total comprehensive income
amounted to $8,610 and $8,807. The components of comprehensive income, net of
tax, for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1997 are as
follows:
1998 1997
-----------------------
Net income $7,024 $6,911
Unrealized losses on available-for-sale securities 1586 1,896
-------------------------
Comprehensive income $8,610 $8,807
========================
Accumulated other comprehensive income, net of related tax, at September 30,
1998 and December 31, 1997 totaled $4,608 and $1,872, respectively and were
comprised entirely of accumulated changes in unrealized market value adjustments
on securities available-for-sale, net of tax.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
General
Second Bancorp, Incorporated, (the "Company") is a one-bank holding company
which owns The Second National Bank of Warren (the "Bank"), a Warren, Ohio based
commercial bank. Operating through twenty-eight branches and one loan production
office, the Bank offers a wide range of commercial and consumer banking and
trust services primarily to business and individual customers in various
communities in a seven county area in northeastern Ohio.
The Bank focuses its marketing efforts primarily on local independent and
professional firms and individuals that are the owners and principals of such
firms. The Bank has emphasized commercial lending and market area expansion.
Financial Condition
At September 30, 1998, the Company had consolidated total assets of $956.5
million, deposits of $688 million and shareholders' equity of $91 million. Since
September 30, 1997, total assets have grown by 1.2%. Loans have grown by 5%
during the past year to $637 million. Within the loan totals, real estate loan
balances have increased by 49% to $108 million as of September 30, 1998 while
consumer lending has declined by $30 million to $166 million as of the same
date. The decline in consumer loan balances reflects the Bank's reduced focus on
indirect automobile lending and commitment to improved credit quality within
that portfolio. Commercial loan balances have increased by $25 million, or 7%
over the past year.
Funding growth has primarily been generated through advances from the Federal
Home Loan Bank ("FHLB"). FHLB advances have increased by $36 million over the
past year to total $67 at the end of the most recent quarter. The company has
utilized FHLB advances to replace higher priced and shorter term retail time
deposits. Time deposits have declined by $24 million over the same period.
Results of Operations
General. The Company achieved net income of $1,676,000 for the third quarter of
1998, 31% less than the $2,424,000 earned during the same period last year. The
quarter included $1,329,000 in merger costs associated with the third quarter
acquisition of Enfin, Inc. and its subsidiary, Enterprise Bank, in Solon, Ohio
along with merger costs from the pending Trumbull Financial Corporation
acquisition. Excluding those merger costs, net income would have been
$2,771,000, or 14.3% greater than the third quarter of 1997. On a per share
basis, diluted earnings for the quarter were $.22%, 33% less than the $.33 per
share reported for the third quarter of 1997. Excluding merger costs, diluted
earnings per share would have been $.37. Return on average assets (ROA) and
return on average total shareholders' equity (ROE) were .69% and 7.38%,
respectively for the third quarter of 1998 compared to 1.04% and 12.66% for last
year's third quarter. Excluding merger costs, ROA and ROE would have been 1.14%
and 12.20% for the third quarter. Net interest income increased by 1.8% to
$9,348,000 for the third quarter of 1998. Non-interest income increased 41.2%
from a year ago with increases in income from trust services, security gains and
other
-8-
9
operating income all posting positive results. Excluding merger costs,
non-interest expenses declined 1.3% from the same period a year ago, indicating
the Company's continued successful efforts to contain and reduce costs. During
the quarter, an additional $1,000,000 special provision for loan losses was
added to the reserve for loan losses. The special provision was necessitated by
a bankruptcy filing potentially impacting the collectibility of a single, but
significant, commercial loan relationship. The special provision was partially
offset by $719,000 in security gains realized during the third quarter.
For the first nine months, the Company achieved net income of $7,024,000, 1.6%
greater than the $6,911,000 earned during the same period last year. Excluding
merger costs, net income would have been $8,119,000, or 17.5% greater than the
first nine months of 1997. On a per share basis, diluted earnings were $.94,
virtually unchanged from the $.95 per share reported for the first nine months
of 1997. Excluding merger costs, diluted earnings per share were $1.09. Return
on average assets (ROA) and return on average total shareholders' equity (ROE)
were .97% and 10.68%, respectively for the first nine months of 1998, compared
to 1.00% and 12.30% for the same period last year. Excluding merger costs, ROA
and ROE were 1.12% and 12.34% for the first nine months of 1998. Net interest
income increased by 3.8% to $28,241,000 for the first nine months of 1998.
Non-interest income increased 15.7% from a year ago with increases in income
from trust services, security gains and other operating income all posting
positive results. Excluding merger costs, non-interest expenses were 2.1% lower
than the previous year.
Asset Quality. The reserve for loan losses was 1.22% of total loans at the end
of the third quarter of 1998. The reserve was 1.27% of total loans at September
30, 1997. Non-performing loans have declined significantly over the past year
and total $6,037,000 as of September 30, 1998 versus $9,281,000 as of the same
date last year. Net charge-offs averaged an annualized 1.15% of average loans
for the third quarter, which is an historically high level for the Company. Net
charge-offs include the commercial loan associated with the bankruptcy filing
mentioned previously. Net charge-offs averaged .67% of average loans for the
first nine months of 1998, up from .60% for the same period in 1997. A $2.4
million receivable due the Bank that was reclassified from loans to other assets
at the end of 1997 was substantially recovered during the first quarter of 1998
and further indicates an improved credit quality position.
Net Interest Income. Net interest income for the third quarter of 1998 increased
by 1.8% from the same period last year to $9,348,000. The increase was derived
from an increase of 3.6% in average earning assets to $910 million. The net
interest margin was marginally lower in the third quarter of 1998 at 4.34%,
compared to 4.39% for the same period in 1997. Similarly, net interest income
for the first nine months of 1998 increased by 3.8% from the same period last
year to $28,241,000. The increase was derived from an increase of 4.9% in
average earning assets to $909 million. The net interest margin was marginally
lower in the first nine months of 1998 at 4.37%, compared to 4.39% for the same
period in 1997. A slight decrease in the loan to asset ratio is primarily
responsible for the decline in the net interest margin. Loan represent 64.6% of
average total assets at the end of the third quarter 1998, compared to 65.3% a
year earlier.
Non-interest Income. Non-interest income showed significant improvement over the
past year. For the third quarter of 1998, fees from trust services increased by
$54,000, or 9%, over the third quarter of 1997. Other income totaled $1,229,000
for the third quarter of 1998 versus $949,000 for the same period in 1997. Sales
of SBA and real estate loans as well as sales of alternative investment products

Year 2000:
Due to the approach of the Year 2000, the Company is exposed to risks that
equipment or software applications will not be able to distinguish the year 2000
from the year 1900 and will not function properly. To address the issue, the
Company has initiated the process of preparing its computer systems and
applications for the Year 2000. This process involves modifying or replacing
certain hardware and software used by the Company. The software utilized is
primarily originated and serviced by external providers. The Company is
communicating with those providers to ensure that appropriate steps are being
taken to remedy any Year 2000 issues. The Company has in place a steering
committee to oversee the Year 2000 readiness effort and has a formal plan in
place addressing the issue. Contingency planning efforts are part of the plan
are substantially completed for all major operations and functions of the
Company. Company-wide in-house testing has begun and is ongoing. The Company is
also in contact with its corporate customers, communicating the issues involved
with the Year 2000 issue and assessing their state of readiness. The total
anticipated capital expenditure associated with Year 2000 readiness is expected
to be approximately $1.4 million. Of this amount, approximately $150,000 has
been expended to date. Operating expenses are estimated to be minimal, including
two full time employees dedicated to the project. Operating expenses incurred
for the first nine months of 1998 are approximately $50,000 with an additional
$50,000 expected through completion of the project.
