The Company is also the parent company of The FI Group, Inc. ("FIGI"), a brokerage subsidiary that commenced operations on March 22, 2000.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." This statement, as amended by SFAS No. 138, requires the Company to recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities, with the instruments measured at fair value. The accounting for gains and losses resulting from changes in fair value of the derivative instrument depends on the intended use of the derivative and the type of risk being hedged. SFAS No. 133's effective date was deferred in June 1999 by FASB's issuance of SFAS No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133" and is now effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000, although earlier adoption is permitted. Based upon current activities, the adoption of this statement will not have an effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations. SFAS No. 133 also permits a reclassification of securities to the available for sale category from the held to maturity category, at the time the standard is adopted. 5.

Diluted earnings per common share rose 5.7% to $0.37 for the second quarter of 2000 from $0.35 in the second quarter of 1999. For the first six months of 2000 diluted earnings per common share of $0.73 were 5.8% higher than the $0.69 for the same period in 1999. Return on average common equity was an annualized 15.82% for the six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to 17.13% in the same period in 1999. Net interest income increased 15.7% to $13,204,000 for the second quarter of 2000 compared to $11,412,000 for the second quarter of 1999. The increase resulted from 15.5% growth in average earning assets while net interest margin was 4.95% in both quarters. Average earning assets for the second quarter of 2000 increased to $1,117.8 million from $968.2 million in the second quarter of 1999. Net interest income for the first six months of 2000 was $25,889,000, an increase of 16.5% from $22,228,000 for the first six months of 1999. Net interest margin of 4.97% for the first six months of 2000 compares to 4.95% for the same period in 1999. Most of the earning asset growth has occurred in the Commercial and Agricultural loan portfolios as a result of increased sales efforts in the Company's primary markets as well as expansion into the contiguous Erie and Monroe County markets. Noninterest income of $2,303,000 for the second quarter of 2000 increased 21.2% from $1,900,000 for the same period in 1999. Noninterest income for the first six months of 2000 increased 17.4% to $4,372,000 compared to $3,725,000 for the same period last year. The increases are principally from deposit service charges, sales of mutual funds, and trust fees. Noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2000 was up 9.1% to $7,375,000 from $6,761,000 for the second quarter of 1999. The Company's efficiency ratio for the second quarter of 2000 was 45.74% compared to 48.59% for the same period a year ago. For the six months ended June 30, 2000 noninterest expense increased 11.5% to $14,582,000 from $13,082,000 for the same period in 1999. The Company's efficiency ratios for the first six months of 2000 and 1999 were 46.20% and 48.17%, respectively. The increases in noninterest expense compared to both 1999 periods primarily occurred in staffing and technology resources to support expanding lending activities, product lines and delivery channels, and the opening of two new branch offices in a contiguous market. Provision for loan losses for the second quarter of 2000 was $1,172,000 compared to $531,000 for the same period a year ago. For the first six months of 2000 the provision was $2,007,000 compared to $1,056,000 for the same period a year ago. The ratio of net loan charge-offs to average loans was 0.21% for the first six months of 2000 compared to 0.15% for the same period in 1999. The increased provision for loan losses is reflective of strong loan portfolio growth particularly in indirect consumer lending and commercial loan activity in new markets. Nonperforming assets at June 30, 2000 were $9.1 million, an increase of $0.4 million from $8.7 million at June 30, 1999. The June 30, 2000 level of nonperforming assets was an increase of $2.4 million from December 31, 1999 with $1.4 million of the increase accounted for in agricultural loans, reflecting the current decline in milk prices and an unusually wet growing season. Partially mitigating the $1.4 million increase in nonperforming agricultural loans are government guarantees on $0.9 million of the increase. When including the impact of government guarantees, total nonperforming assets at June 30, 2000 were $7.4 million, down slightly from $7.5 million at June 30, 1999. Income tax expense increased to $2.5 million for the second quarter 1999 from $2.1 million for the second quarter 1999. The effective tax rate for the second quarter 2000 was 36.1% compared to 35.5% for the second quarter 1999.

Loan volumes and yields, as well as the volume of and rates on investments, deposits and borrowings, are affected by market interest rates. Additionally, because of the terms and conditions of many of the Company's loan documents and deposit accounts, a change in interest rates could also affect the projected maturities of the loan portfolio and/or the deposit base, which could alter the Company's 15 sensitivity to future changes in interest rates. Accordingly, management considers interest rate risk to be the Company's most significant market risk. Interest rate risk management focuses on maintaining consistent growth in net interest income within Board approved policy limits while taking into consideration, among other factors, the Company's overall credit, operating income, operating cost, and capital profile. The Company's Asset/Liability Committee (ALCO), which includes senior management and reports to the Board of Directors, monitors and manages interest rate risk to maintain an acceptable level of change to net interest income as a result of changes in interest rates. Management of the Company's interest rate risk requires the selection of appropriate techniques and instruments to be utilized after considering the benefits, costs and risks associated with available alternatives. Since the Company does not utilize derivative instruments, management's techniques usually consider one or more of the following: (1) interest rates offered on products, (2) maturity terms offered on products, (3) types of products offered, and (4) products available to the Company in the wholesale market such as advances from the FHLB. The Company uses a net interest income and economic value of equity model as one method to identify and manage its interest rate risk profile. The model is based on expected cash flows and repricing characteristics for all financial instruments and incorporates market-based assumptions regarding the impact of changing interest rates on these financial instruments. Assumptions based on the historical behavior of deposit rates and balances in relation to changes in interest rates are also incorporated into the model. These assumptions are inherently uncertain and, as a result, the model cannot precisely measure net interest income or precisely predict the impact of fluctuations in interest rates on net interest income. Actual results will differ from simulated results due to timing, magnitude, and frequency of interest rate changes as well as changes in market conditions and management strategies. The Company has experienced no significant changes in market risk due to changes in interest rates since the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K as of December 31, 1999 dated March 28, 2000 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Management also uses the static gap analysis to identify and manage the Company's interest rate risk profile. Interest sensitivity gap ("gap") analysis measures the difference between the assets and liabilities repricing or maturing within specific time periods.
