PART I.
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, 1998, the total
assets of the Company were $801.6 million with equity capital of $58.4 million.
At December 31, 1997, the total assets of the Company were $669.5 million with
equity capital of $50.5 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 and 4 savings and loans 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,
1998 (the most recent date for which information is readily available), total
deposits held by financial institutions in Lucas and Wood counties approximated
$6.4 billion. Since its opening on August 24, 1989, the Bank has grown from
$12.4 million in assets to $802.2 million in assets as of December 31, 1998. 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, 1998, the Bank had 110 full-time
equivalent employees, which represents a 12% increase in staff since December
31, 1997, at which time there were 98 full-time equivalent employees, and a 746%
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
completed 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. The Company is in the
process of acquiring one acre of vacant land adjacent to our existing
facilities.
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.

PART II.
ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED SHAREHOLDER
- ------- -------------------------------------------------------------
MATTERS
-------
The Company's common stock is not listed on any securities exchange.
Shares are infrequently traded in the over the counter market on the NASDAQ
bulletin board system under the symbol CLHD.
There were 998 shareholders of record as of February 12, 1999.
In 1998, four quarterly cash dividends totaling $1,745,339 were
declared on the Company's common stock. During 1998, $1,600,028 of dividends
were paid out in cash. The dividend declared represented $.21 per share per
quarter for the first three quarters and $.24 per share for the fourth quarter
of 1998. 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 $60.00,
$47.00, and $37.50 per share at December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively.

ITEM 7. 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, 1998.
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 16%, 19%, and 17% in
1998, 1997, and 1996, 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, 1998. Net interest margin (net
interest income divided by average earning assets) was 3.43% for 1998, 3.58% for
1997, and 3.59% for 1996.
Average loans outstanding increased 23%, 23%, and 20% in 1998, 1997,
and 1996, respectively. Average yield on these loans was 8.50%, 8.83%, and
8.79%, respectively. The changes in yield are reflective of the change in market
rates and the refinancing opportunities available during these periods.
Securities represent 25% of the total average earning assets of the Company at
December 31, 1998, and the average yields were 6.47%, 6.62%, and 6.65% as of
December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. The changes in yield are due to
changes in market rates and portfolio mix.
Average total interest bearing liabilities increased to $616 million in
1998 compared with $517 million in 1997 and $432 million in 1996. The average
cost of interest bearing liabilities was 5.16%, 5.23%, and 5.17% for the same
periods. The decrease in yield is a direct reflection of falling short and long
term rates.

PROVISION FOR CREDIT LOSSES
- ---------------------------
The provision for credit losses was $1,230,000, $1,005,000, and
$980,000 for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively.
Total allowance for credit losses as a percentage of total loans outstanding at
year end was 1.4%, 1.5%, and 1.6% for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997,
and 1996, respectively.
Management maintains the allowance for credit losses at a level
adequate to absorb losses inherent in the portfolio. 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 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 a total of
only $252,000 in charge-offs since its inception in 1989, $36,000 of which were
in 1998. The Company was able to operate four consecutive years, 1994 through
1997, without a loan charge-off. 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 $1,681,000 for 1998 increased approximately $476,000 or 39% when
compared to 1997 and 38% when 1997 is compared to 1996. Merchant and credit card
interchange fees combined were approximately $962,000, $777,000, and $620,000 in
1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. Service charges on deposit accounts were
approximately $395,000, $313,000, and $253,000 in 1998, 1997, and 1996,
respectively.
OTHER EXPENSES
- --------------
Noninterest expense increased 17% in 1998 and 22% in 1997. Salaries and
benefits, which accounted for 53% in both 1998 and 1997 of noninterest expenses,
increased by 17% in 1998 and 22% in 1997. Full-time equivalent employees
increased 12% in 1998 and 26% in 1997. 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 $7.3 million and $6.8 million
at December 31, 1998 and 1997, 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 49.2% for 1998 and 49.4% for 1997.
The Company's low ratio is indicative of efficient overhead cost control from
the single operating facility.
Depreciation expense for 1998 was approximately $706,000. This
represented a 50% increase over 1997's balance of approximately $470,000, due
primarily to hardware and software upgrades in 1998 and a full years
depreciation on the building expansion completed in 1997.
During 1998, the assessment paid by the Company to the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation (FDIC) was $70,000. This compares to $62,000 being paid in
1997. 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 $3,805,000, $3,234,000, and
$2,681,000 in 1998, 1997, and 1996, 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 32.4%, 32.3%, and 31.9%
in 1998, 1997, and 1996, 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 73%, 71%, and 69% of the Company's average earning
assets in 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. Loan volume and quality continue
to be strong as the Company grows. The increase in net loans outstanding over
the prior year was $108 million, $88 million, and $54 million in 1998, 1997, and
1996, 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.
Tables 3 and 4 show the composition of the loan portfolio at the end of
each of the last five years and the loan maturities and rate sensitivities at
December 31, 1998.

(A) Maturities based on ending contractual maturity dates.
(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 $570,000, $673,000, $454,000, and $138,000 at
December 31, 1998, 1997, 1996, and 1995, 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.

SECURITIES
- ----------
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, 1998,
approximated $2,014,000 (net of $1,040,000 in deferred income taxes); the
unrealized gain recorded at December 31, 1997, approximated $1,357,000 (net of
$698,000 in deferred income taxes); and the unrealized gain recorded December
31, 1996, approximated $531,000 (net of $273,000 in deferred income taxes). The
designation of such securities is made by management based upon liquidity needs
at the time of purchase.
The securities available for sale (SAFS) portfolio at December 31,
1998, is composed primarily of U.S. Treasury (15.3%) and U.S. Government Agency
Securities (64.7%). The remaining 20.0% is composed of certain other securities.
The quality of this portfolio is 84% AAA rated bonds with an average maturity of
2.4 years. The SAFS portfolio represented 23% of total assets at December 31,
1998, and 25% at December 31, 1997.
The SAFS portfolio at December 31, 1998, includes securities issued by
the State of Ohio and the State of Michigan with the following values:

FEDERAL FUNDS SOLD
- ------------------
Short-term Federal funds sold are used to manage interest rate
sensitivity and to meet liquidity needs. During 1998, 1997, and 1996, the
average balance of these funds represented less than 1.4% 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 $1,091,000 at
December 31, 1998. 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 $2,543,000 and $1,038,000,
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 $444 million in 1998 from
$373 million in 1997, and $332 million in 1996.
Certificates of deposit equal to or greater than $100,000 grew to $219
million in 1998 from $206 million in 1997, and $138 million in 1996. The
continued strong marketing effort to secure customers willing to consolidate
deposits into a single investment (i.e. 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 15% in 1998, 23% in 1997, and 15% in 1996.
Table 10 is a summary of the average amount of, and the average rate paid on,
each of the Bank's deposit categories.

TOTAL $613,660 $532,067 $432,696
======== ======== ========
The increase (decrease) in average deposits by category for 1998 was as
follows: Noninterest bearing deposits, 22%; money market accounts, 21%; savings,
(1%) and other time deposits, 13%.
Certificates of deposit of $100,000 or more grew 6% in 1998. 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,
1998, is reflective of the interest rate environment during 1998, which had more
favorable rates in long-term investments.

SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS
- ---------------------
Short-term borrowings were $72 million, $30 million, and $42 million at
December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively.
Short-term borrowings are primarily composed of advances from The
Federal Home Loan Bank (74.8%). The remaining 25.2% is composed of: 1)
securities sold under agreements to repurchase which are secured transactions, a
majority of which mature within one year or less, 2) Federal funds borrowings,
and 3) $3.5 million of demand notes issued by the Bank to the U.S. Treasury
under the Treasury Tax and Loan Note program. Additional information regarding
securities sold under agreements to repurchase and Federal Home Loan Bank
borrowings is summarized below:

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, 1998, 1997, and 1996 was $58.4 million,
$50.5 million, and $41.6 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%.
The Company issued a 6% stock dividend in June of 1996, 1995, and 1994.
In June 1997, the Company began to issue quarterly cash dividends. This totaled
$1,745,339 for 1998 and $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:

YEAR 2000
- ---------
The Company initiated a company-wide project to prepare its computer
systems, application and infrastructure for Year 2000 compliance. The following
discussion of the implications of the Year 2000 issue for the Company contains
numerous forward-looking statements based on inherently uncertain information.
The cost of the project and the date on which the Company plans to complete the
internal Year 2000 modifications are based on management's best estimates, which
management derived utilizing a number of assumptions of future events including
the continued availability of internal and external resources, including
employees, third party modifications and other factors. However, there can be no
guarantee that these estimates will be achieved and actual results could differ.
In 1996, management determined that many of the Company's critical
processes might not be ready to operate normally in the year 2000 and beyond
without remediation. Since then, the Company completed an assessment and efforts
are underway to correct and validate compliance. In 1997, the Company alerted
its business customers of the Year 2000 problem and is now assessing the
readiness preparations of its major customers and suppliers. Resolution of the
Year 2000 problem is among the Company's highest priorities, and the Company
established a comprehensive program to address its many aspects.
The Company prepared a project plan, identified its major application
and processing systems, and is using internal and external resources to modify
or replace non-ready systems. The Company will test identified critical systems
for readiness as part of this process. In addition, the Company will evaluate
customers and vendors who have significant relationships with the Company to
determine whether they are preparing and will be ready for the year 2000. The
Company considered the potential failure of those customers to be adequately
prepared as part of the credit and review process. However, there can be no
guarantee that the remediation of the systems of the Company's vendors or
customers will be completed on a timely basis.
The Company upgraded computer hardware and software during 1998 to meet
its strategic plan of enhancing its products and services from a competitive
viewpoint. This decision was not related to Year 2000 compliance issues. The
newly installed systems are Year 2000 compliant. The cost of these systems was
approximately $600,000 which was capitalized. The Company has reviewed other
systems, including desktop computers and facilities related items for Year 2000
compliance. Anticipated costs related to the remaining hardware and software
purchases, associated reprogramming, and remedial actions did not exceed
$100,000 in 1998 nor is it expected to exceed that amount in 1999 or 2000. The
Company will fund the costs through normal operating cash flow. The project is
staffed primarily with internal staff redeployed from less time-sensitive
assignments.
The Company is reliant on suppliers and customers, and we are
addressing Year 2000 issues with both groups. As of December 31, 1998, we have
identified critical vendors and have completed formalized risk assessments of
their Year 2000 readiness plans and status. The Company will continue to monitor
and replace vendors or make alternative arrangements when sources are limited or
unavailable.
The Company is also reliant on its customers to make the necessary
preparations for Year 2000 so that their business operations will not be
interrupted, as an interruption could threaten their ability to honor financial
commitments. The Company has identified approximately 298 relationships,
consisting of borrowers, capital market counter parties, funding sources, and
large depositors as having financial volumes sufficiently large to warrant
inquiry as to Year 2000 preparation. The Company has substantially completed a
formal assessment of risk based on these initial reports as of December 31,
1998. Customers found to have a significant risk of not being ready for Year
2000 are encouraged to make the necessary effort. The Company is undertaking
measures to minimize risk with those that appear to pose a significant risk.
Quarterly reviews and follow up assessments of customers will continue through
1999.
The Company's Year 2000 change program includes the active involvement
of senior executives as well as seasoned project managers from throughout the
company. Senior executive, the board of directors and a project steering
committee regularly review the overall program. The federal and state agencies
that regulate the banking industry also monitor the program. The Company's
outside internal audit firm also reviewed the Company's project status.
The Company grouped the principal risks associated with the Year 2000
problem into three categories. The first is the risk that the Company does not
successfully ready its operations for the year 2000. The Company, like other
financial institutions, is heavily dependent on its computer systems. Year 2000
compliant systems have already been implemented and management believes it will
be able to make any other minor necessary corrections in a timely manner.
19
Computer failure of third parties may also impact the Company's
operations. The most serious impact on the Company's operations from suppliers
would result if basic services such as telecommunications, electric power
suppliers, and services provided by other financial institutions and
governmental agencies were disrupted. While the Company has assessed its
suppliers, it does not yet have sufficient information to estimate the
likelihood of significant disruptions among its suppliers.
Operational failures among the Company's sources of major funding and
larger borrowers could affect their ability to continue to provide funding or
meet obligations when due. It is not possible to accurately estimate the
likelihood, or potential impact, of significant disruptions among the Company's
funding sources and obligors at this time.
The Company is developing remediation contingency plans and business
resumption contingency plans specific to the Year 2000. Remediation contingency
plans address the actions to be taken if the current approach to remediating a
system is falling behind schedule or otherwise appears in jeopardy of failing to
deliver a Year 2000 ready system when needed. Business resumption contingency
plans address the actions that would be taken if critical business functions can
not be carried out in the normal manner due to system or supplier failure.
The Company developed remediation contingency plans with trigger dates
for review and implementation for critical data systems. The Company is also
enhancing its existing business resumption plans to reflect Year 2000 issues and
is developing plans designed to coordinate the efforts of its personnel and
resources in addressing any Year 2000 problems that become known after December
31, 1999.
LIQUIDITY, INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY AND MARKET RISK
----------------------------------------------------
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, 1998 and 1997, the Company
had $24.3 million and $36.2 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 $55.1 million. The Company currently holds $4.6
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, 1998, the Company
had a total of $237.3 million in unfunded loan commitments and $16.8 million in
unfunded standby letters of credit. Of the total unfunded loan commitments,
$208.4 million were commitments available as lines of credit to be drawn at any
time as customers' cash needs vary, and $28.9 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. The amount of unrestricted retained earnings available
to be paid by the Bank to the Company was approximately $11,176,000 at January
1, 1999.
20
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, 1998, 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 AND MARKET RISK
- -----------------------------------------
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, 1998,
suggest that the Corporation could expect net interest income to decrease by
approximately $478,000 (if interest rates gradually decline by 100 basis points
over the next twelve months) and, to increase by approximately $177,000 (if
interest rates gradually increase by 100 basis points over the next twelve
months) from 1998 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,
1998 and 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.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
- --------------------------
The foregoing disclosure contains "forward-looking statements" within
the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, both as amended, with respect to expectations for future periods. These
forward looking statements relate to the impact of Year 2000 and the interest
rate sensitivity analysis, all changes which are subject to risks and
uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ. These risks and
uncertainties include unanticipated changes in the competitive environment and
relationships with third party vendors and clients and certain other factors
discussed in this report.
