The ESOP was established in 1997. The ESOP currently has two loans established for the purpose of purchasing shares in the Company for the plan. In November 2001, the ESOP loans were consolidated into a seven year term loan from the Company in the amount of $1,071,093 with a fixed interest rate of 6.00%. Note payments are $15,218 per month for 83 months plus a final principal payment of $24,092. The note balance outstanding at March 31, 2004 was $750,105. In November 2001, the Company also granted a $300,000 line of credit to the ESOP for the purchase of additional shares of stock in the Company as it becomes available. The interest rate for balances outstanding on the line of credit is 6% with a five year term. Interest is paid monthly with principal payments made as funds are available. At March 31, 2004, no balances were outstanding for advances on the line of credit. Shares owned by the ESOP at March 31, 2004 totaled 175,148. ESOP shares are maintained in a suspense account until released and allocated to participants' accounts. The release of shares from the suspense account is based on the principal paid in the year in proportion to the total of current year and remaining outstanding debt. Allocation of released shares to participants' accounts is done as of December 31. Shares allocated and remaining in suspense were as follows: March 31, December 31, 2004 2003 ------------- ------------- Number of Shares Released and Allocated since Inception 77,857 77,857 Suspense 68,873 70,811 Fair Value Released and Allocated since Inception 1,557,140 1,557,140 Suspense 1,377,460 1,416,220 The expense recorded by the Company is based on cash contributed to the ESOP during the year in amounts determined by the Board of Directors, plus the excess of fair value of shares released and allocated over the ESOP's cost of those shares. The Company's contributions to the ESOP are as follows: March 31, December 31, 2004 2003 ------------- ------------ Compensation Expense 111,000 408,370 Contributions 111,000 408,370 No dividends have been declared on the Company's stock. If dividends are paid, the ESOP administrators will determine whether dividends on allocated and unallocated shares will be used for debt service. Any allocated dividends used will be replaced with common stock of equal value. For the purpose of computing earnings per share, all ESOP shares committed to be released are considered outstanding. The released Company stock will be allocated to employees based on their salaries. Generally, all employees who work over 1,000 hours are eligible for the plan after one year of service. Employees will be vested after seven years of service.

The convertible fixed rate advances have an original maturity of 10 years with an option held by FHLB to convert to a variable rate tied to 3-month LIBOR beginning 1 to 3 years from the original issue date. If converted to a variable rate the bank maintains the option to pay off the advance or continue at the variable rate over the original contractual maturity of the advance. CRA mortgage match advances are amortized over a 30-year period and totaled $1,202,712 at March 31, 2004 and $1,210,071 at December 31, 2003. The average rate on FHLB advances was 4.85% at both December 31, 2003 and 2002. The Savings Bank pledges as collateral for these borrowings selected qualifying mortgage loans and securities (as defined) under an agreement with the FHLB. Loans and securities pledged at March 31, 2004 totaled $66.9 million in residential mortgage loans and $2 million in securities.

State of Franklin Savings Bank (Savings Bank) and State of Franklin Leasing Corporation (Leasing Corp) represents virtually all of the assets of State of Franklin Bancshares, Inc. (Company). The Company places an emphasis on an integrated approach to its balance sheet management. Significant balance sheet components of investment securities, loans and sources of funds are managed in an integrated manner with the management of interest rate risk, liquidity, and capital. These components are examined below. 13 BALANCE SHEET REVIEW - -------------------- At March 31, 2004, assets of State of Franklin Bancshares, Inc. totaled $311 million reflecting an increase of $19 million or 7% since December 31, 2003. The growth in assets has been funded primarily by an $8 million increase in deposits and a $10 million increase in FHLB advances. LOANS - ----- Loans outstanding totaled $151.6 million at March 31, 2004 compared with $151.0 million at December 31, 2003. First mortgage loans decreased $1.0 million, consumer loans increased $504,000, and commercial and construction loans increased $1.1 million. The loan portfolio mix at March 31, 2004 consists of 33% residential mortgages, 43% commercial, 14% real estate construction, and 10% consumer loans. INVESTMENT SECURITIES - --------------------- Investment securities totaled $108.9 million at March 31, 2004. The investment portfolio at quarter end consisted of $12.3 million in debt securities issued by the U. S Government or Federal Agencies, $30.2 million in mortgage backed securities, $25.3 million in securities issued by state, county, or municipalities, $17.2 million in corporate securities, $23.5 million in preferred stock issued by Federal Agencies, and $354,000 in other equity securities. At March 31, 2004, securities categorized as available-for-sale totaled $63.2 million while the held-to-maturity securities totaled $45.7 million compared to $63.4 million in available-for-sale and $34.0 million in held-to-maturity at December 31, 2003. At March 31, 2004, the available-for-sale portfolio had net unrealized losses of $716,034 while our held-to-maturity securities had $404,376 in net unrealized gains. NON-PERFORMING ASSETS - --------------------- At March 31, 2004 the Company had nonaccrual loans totaling $2.8 million compared with $3.2 million at December 31, 2003. The reserve for loan and lease losses was $1,871,073 at March 31, 2003, or 1.24% of loans and leases outstanding, net of unearned income and loans held for sale, compared to $1,870,279 or 1.24% at December 31, 2003. Management believes the allowance for loan losses is adequate to provide for potential loan losses. DEPOSITS - -------- Total deposits at March 31, 2004 of $229.6 million, reflected an increase of $7.6 million or a 3% increase from $123 million at December 31, 2003. Non-interest bearing demand deposits totaled $14.8 million at March 31, 2004, an increase of $2.6 million from December 31, 2003. Interest bearing deposits increased $5.0 million to $214.9 million at March 31, 2004. CAPITAL - ------- Tier 1 capital for the Savings Bank at March 31, 2004 was $22.4 million. At March 31, 2004, all capital ratios were in excess of the regulatory minimums, with the Savings Bank's Tier 1, total risk-based, and leverage ratios of 11.44%, 12.24% and 7.58%, respectively. Tier 1 capital for the Company at March 31, 2004, was $31.8 million with Tier 1, total risk-based, and leverage ratios of 16.23%, 17.25%, and 10.71%, respectively. LIQUIDITY - --------- The purpose of liquidity management is to ensure that there is sufficient cash flow to satisfy demands for credit, deposit withdrawals, and other corporate needs. Traditional sources of liquidity include asset maturities and growth in core deposits. Other sources of funds such as securities sold under agreements to repurchase, negotiable certificates of deposit and other liabilities are sources of liquidity that the Company has not significantly used. The Company had unused sources of liquidity in the form of unused federal funds lines of credit and an unused line of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati. EARNINGS REVIEW - ---------------- The Company had net income of $552,431 for the three months ending March 31, 2004, compared with $831,242 for the same period last year, resulting in a decrease of 34%. Return on average assets and average equity was .75% and 8.90%, respectively, compared with 1.27% and 14.77% for the three month period ended March 31, 2003. For the three months ended March 31, 2004, net income per diluted share was $.37 compared to earnings per share of $.56 for the same period in 2003. Noninterest income decreased $124,693, or 31%, during the three months ended March 31, 2004, compared to the same period last year as a result of declines in other fees and service charges, gains on loans sold, realized gains on securities, real estate sales commission, and insurance commissions. Contributing significantly to the decline in noninterest income were decreases in net gains on loans sold and realestate sales commission income which declined from the prior year as a result of declines in both refinancing of existing homes and decreased activity in the housing market. 14 Noninterest expense was $1,493,170 for the three months ending March 31, 2004, an increase of $288,741, or 24% over the 2003 period, resulting from increases in compensation and related benefits, occupancy expense, furniture and equipment expense, advertising, data processing, and other operating expenses. NET INTEREST INCOME - ------------------- Interest income and interest expense both decreased from 2003 to 2004 primarily resulting from assets and liabilities repricing at lower rates. Net interest income of $1,953,489 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 reflects a decrease of $149,896 or 7% under the same period last year. For the three months ending March 31, 2004, average earning assets increased $28.6 million or 11% while average interest bearing liabilities increased $26.4 million, also 11%, compared with the same period in 2003. The taxable equivalent yield on earning assets declined 92 basis points to 5.34% for the first three months of 2004 compared with the same period in 2003 while the cost on interest bearing liabilities declined 36 basis points to 2.01%. Consequently, the taxable equivalent net interest margin based on average earning assets decreased to 2.89% for the three months ending March 31, 2004 compared with 3.48% for the same period in 2003. PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES - ------------------------- During the three months ended March 31, 2004, the provision for possible loan losses was $10,000 compared with $177,637 for the same period last year. There were $9,206 in loan or lease charge-offs net of recoveries for the three months ended March 31, 2004, and no loan or lease charge-offs during the same period in 2003. The allowance for possible loan losses represented 1.24% of total loans, net of mortgage loans held-for-sale, at March 31, 2004, compared to 1.11% at March 31, 2003. Management considers the allowance for loan losses to be adequate to cover losses inherent in the loan portfolio. PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES - --------------------------- For the three months ended March 31, 2004, the provision for federal and state income taxes were $176,766, a decrease of $293,648 from 2003. The decrease is due to the decline in taxable income compared to the same period in 2003. NONINTEREST INCOME - ------------------- The Company's noninterest income was $278,878 during the three months ended March 31, 2004, a decrease of $124,693 or 31% from the comparable 2003 period. During 2004, other fees and service charges, net gain on loans sold, realized gain on securities, real estate sales commissions, and insurance commission income declined $5,431, $101,871, $231, $14,108, and $8,551, respectively. Net rental income increased $5,499. NONINTEREST EXPENSE - -------------------- Noninterest expense totaled $1,493,170 for the three month period ending March 31, 2004, an increase of $288,741, or 24%, over the same period in 2003. The increase was the result of increases in compensation and benefits, occupancy expense, furniture and equipment expense, advertising, data processing, and other operating expenses of $57,479, $6,756, $67,659, $29,666, $52,842, and $74,339, respectively.
