ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS Certain matters discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are "forward-looking statements" intended to qualify for the safe harbors from liability established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements can generally be identified as such because the context of the statement will include words such as the Company "believes", "anticipates", "expects", "estimates" or words of similar import. Similarly, statements that describe the Company's future plans, objectives or goals are also forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, which are described in, close proximity to such statements and which could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated as of the date of this report. Shareholders, potential investors and other readers are urged to consider these factors in evaluating the forward-looking statements and are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements included herein are only made as of the date of this report and the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update such forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances. GENERAL: HFB Financial Corporation, a Tennessee Corporation, was formed in September 1992 at the direction of Home Federal Bank, Federal Savings Bank for the purpose of becoming a holding company for the Bank as part of its conversion from mutual to stock form. The Company's primary operation is its investment in the common stock of the Bank. The Bank is principally engaged in the business of accepting deposits from the general public and originating permanent loans, which are secured by one-to-four family residential properties located in its market area. The Bank also originates consumer loans and commercial real estate loans, and maintains a substantial investment portfolio of mortgage-backed and other investment securities. The operations of Home Federal, and savings institutions generally, are significantly influenced by general economic conditions and the monetary and fiscal policies of government regulatory agencies. Deposit flows and costs of funds are influenced by interest rates on competing investments and prevailing market rates of interest. Lending activities are affected by the demand for financing real estate and other types of loans, which in turn are influenced by the interest rates at which such financing may be offered and other factors related to loan demand and the availability of funds. FINANCIAL CONDITION The Corporation's assets increased by 3.65% to $212.7 million at March 31, 2001 compared to $205.2 million at June 30, 2000. The majority of this increase is reflected in increases in cash and cash equivalents and loans. These increases were financed primarily by an increase in deposits and a decrease in investment securities. Cash and cash equivalents increased by $5.509 million to $8.680 million at March 31, 2001 from $3.171 million at June 30, 2000. This increase was primarily due to a larger uncollected balance at the Bank's clearing account at the Federal Reserve Bank and a higher level of federal funds sold at March 31, 2001. 8 The Company maintains a portfolio of trading account securities, which is comprised of common stock of other financial institutions. The portfolio was $933,000 at March 31, 2001 compared to $759,000 at June 30, 2000. Most of this increase was attributable to an increase in the fair market value of the portfolio. Investment securities, available for sale, decreased $3.3 million to $33.4 million at March 31, 2001 from $36.7 million at June 30, 2000 as the result of $7.3 million in securities matured offset by a $2.0 million increase in market value and the purchase of $2.1 million in securities, net of securities sold. Investment securities, held to maturity, decreased $3.5 million to $21.2 million at March 31, 2001 from $24.7 million at June 30, 2000 due to securities maturing. The proceeds from sold and matured securities were primarily used to fund an increase in the loan portfolio. Loans, net, increased by $8.6 million to $140.0 million at March 31, 2001 from $131.4 million at June 30, 2000 as the result of continued mortgage loan demand and an increase in participation loans. The Company continues to maintain a high percentage of its loan portfolio in adjustable-rate residential mortgages. At March 31, 2001, the allowance for loan losses was $699,000 or .50% of loans receivable compared to $645,000 or .49% of loans receivable at June 30, 2000. Premises and equipment increased by $706,000 to $4.577 million at March 31, 2001 from $3.871 million at June 30, 2000, primarily due to the $437,000 purchase of real estate which houses the recently acquired branch in Harlan Kentucky, purchases of office furniture for the main office, computer software and computer hardware. Total deposits increased by $4.8 million to $177.3 million at March 31, 2001 from $172.5 million at June 30, 2000. During the nine-months ended March 31, 2001, certificates of deposit increased $4.7 million, while NOW accounts and savings deposits increased $100,000. Competition for deposits in the local market has become increasingly fierce from other banks primarily due to increased loan demand. Short-term borrowings were paid during the nine-months ended March 31, 2001 primarily due to funds provided from an increase in deposits and a decrease in the investment portfolio. The Bank's regulatory liquidity ratio was 45.6% at March 31, 2001 as compared to 40.1% at June 30, 2001. At March 31, 2001 the Bank met all the regulatory capital requirements to be considered "well capitalized" under bank regulations. Tangible, core and risk-based capital ratios were 8.7%, 8.7% and 17.6% respectively at March 31, 2001 as compared to 8.6%, 8.6% and 18.3% respectively, at June 30, 2000. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE-MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2001 AND 2000 Net income decreased by $9,000 to $326,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2001 from $335,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2000. The primary reasons for the decrease were a $68,000 decrease in net interest income, a $15,000 increase in the provision for loan losses, a $116,000 increase in other expense and a $31,000 increase in income tax expense offset by a $221,000 increase in other income. Interest income increased by $281,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2001 as compared to the three-month period ended March 31, 2000, primarily a result of a higher average balance of earning assets. Interest on loans increased by $377,000 to $2.972 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2001 as compared to $2.595 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2000. This increase is mainly attributable to a higher weighted-average balance of loans receivable outstanding. Interest on investment securities and other dividend income decreased by $113,000 to $925,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2001 from $1.038 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2000. This decrease is primarily the result of a lower weighted-average balance during the period and a lower reinvestment rate on maturing investments. 9 Interest on deposits with other financial institutions increased by $17,000 to $42,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2001 from $25,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2000 primarily due to a higher level of interest-bearing cash balances. Interest expense on deposits increased by $332,000 to $2.230 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2001 from $1.898 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2000 as a result of higher volume and a higher cost of funds. Interest expense on short-term borrowings and long-term debt increased by $17,000 to $169,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2001 from $152,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2000, primarily due to a higher level of long-term debt. The provision for loan losses increased $15,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2001 as compared to the same period in 2000. The provision was the result of management's evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses including consideration of recoveries of loans previously charged off, the perceived risk exposure among loan types, actual loss experience, delinquency rates, and current economic conditions. The Bank's allowance for loan losses as a percent of total loans at March 31, 2001 was 0.5%. Non-interest income increased by $221,000 to $216,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2001 as compared to a loss of $5,000 for the same period in 2000. The increase was primarily attributable to a net increase in realized and unrealized gains on trading account securities and realized gains on available for sale securities of $135,000, an increase of $69,000 in service charges on deposits and an increase of $17,000 in other fees and other income. Non-interest expense increased by $116,000 to $1.233 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2001 as compared to $1.117 million for the same period in 2000. Compensation and benefits increased by $30,000 to $576,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2001 as compared to $546,000 for the three-months ended March 31, 2000 primarily as the result of a reduction in the amount of compensation expense being deferred on new loan originations in the current period. Equipment expense increased by $36,000 to $105,000 for the three-months ended March 31, 2001 from $69,000 for the three months-ended March 31, 2000 primarily due to an increase in depreciation expense attributable to the addition of fixed assets over the past 12 months. Legal and professional fees decreased by $21,000 to $53,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2001 from $74,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2000 primarily due to a lower level of consulting services utilized in the three-months ended March 31, 2001. Advertising expense increased by $9,000 to $59,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2001 compared to $50,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2000 primarily due to a higher level of advertising activity in the current period. State deposit and franchise taxes increased by $21,000 to $41,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2001 compared to $20,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2000 primarily due to a higher level of deposits in the current period Other expenses increased by $49,000 to $252,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2001 from $203,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2000, primarily due to the addition of core deposit intangible amortization expense related to the Harlan branch purchase in 2000. Income tax expense increased by $31,000 to $166,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2001 compared to $135,000 for the three-months ended March 31, 2000 due a higher level of taxable income. 10 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE NINE-MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2001 AND 2000 Net income decreased by $164,000 to $1.110 million for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2001 from $1.274 million for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2000. The primary reasons for the decrease were a $534,000 increase in provision for loan losses and a $254,000 increase in non-interest expense offset by a $11,000 increase in net interest income, a $528,000 increase in non-interest income and a $85,000 decrease in income tax expense. Net interest income increased by $11,000 for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2001 as compared to the nine-month period ended March 31, 2000, primarily as the result of a higher volumes in the period ended March 31, 2001. Interest on loans increased by $1.100 million to $8.753 million for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2001 as compared to $7.653 million for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2000. This increase is mainly attributable to higher yields and higher volume. Interest on investment securities and other dividend income decreased by $64,000 to $2.976 million for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2001 from $3.040 million for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2000. This decrease is primarily the result of lower weighted-average balances during the period and lower reinvestment rates on maturing securities. Interest expense on deposits increased by $1.064 million to $6.608 million for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2001 from $5.544 million for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2000 as a result of higher volume and a higher cost of funds. Interest expense on short term borrowings and long term debt increased by $24,000 to an aggregate of $518,000 for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2001 from an aggregate of $542,000 for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2000 primarily due to lower levels of short-term borrowings. The provision for loan losses increased $534,000 for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2001 as compared to the same period in 2000. This change reflects a recovery in the quarter ended September 30, 2000 when a total of $904,000 of impaired loans were paid off. The amount charged off for those loans was significantly less than what was specifically reserved for and resulted in a $474,000 reduction in the overall allowance. The provision was the result of management's evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses including consideration of recoveries of loans previously charged off, the perceived risk exposure among loan types, actual loss experience, delinquency rates, and current economic conditions. The Bank's allowance for loan losses as a percent of total loans, net at March 31, 2001 was 0.5%. The Bank's non-interest income increased by $528,000 to $687,000 for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2001 as compared to $159,000 for the same period in 2000. The increase was mainly attributable to a net increase in realized and unrealized gains on trading account securities of $341,000 and a $168,000 increase in service charges for deposit accounts. The increase in realized and unrealized gains on trading account securities was primarily the result of an increase in the market value of equity securities included in the trading account portfolio. The trading account portfolio is comprised of common stocks of other financial institutions. The increase in service charges on deposits reflects income derived from a new overdraft checking product, which was introduced during the nine-months ended March 31, 2001. Non-interest expense increased by $254,000 to $3.608 million for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2001 as compared to $3.354 million for the same period in 2000. Compensation and benefits increased by $57,000 to $1.625 million for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2001 as compared to $1.568 million for the same period in 2000. This increase is primarily attributable to annual wage increases and the result of a reduction in the amount of compensation expense being deferred on new loan originations in the current period. Occupancy expense increased by $38,000 to $248,000 for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2001 compared to $210,000 for the same period in 2000, as the Company incurred additional expenses from its new Harlan branch office. This increase was primarily due to a $35,000 increase in depreciation expense, an $22,000 decrease in repairs and maintenance expense, an $18,000 increase in property tax expense and an increase of $7,000 in utilities expense. 11 Equipment expense increased by $111,000 to $295,000 for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2001 compared to $184,000 for the same period in 2000. This increase was mainly the result of higher deprecation associated with the purchase of new furniture and equipment over the past year. Data processing fees decreased by $11,000 to $195,000 for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2001 from $206,000 for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2000 primarily due to one time conversion expenses incurred for the Harlan branch acquisition in the nine-months ended March 31, 2000. Deposit insurance expense decreased by $27,000 to $26,000 for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2001 from $53,000 for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2000 due to lower deposit premium rates. Legal and professional fees decreased by $9,000 to $169,000 for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2001 from $178,000 for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2000 primarily due to a decrease in consulting fees. Advertising expense decreased by $31,000 to $143,000 for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2001 compared to $174,000 for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2000 due to a lower level of advertising. Other expenses increased by $90,000 to $777,000 for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2001 from $687,000 for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2000 primarily as the result of the addition of core deposit intangible amortization expense of $20,000 related to the Harlan branch purchase in 2000, an increase of $32,000 in telephone expense and an increase of $20,000 in ATM processing charges and other services. Income tax expense decreased by $85,000 to $578,000 for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2001 compared to $663,000 for the nine-months ended March 31, 2000 due to a lower level of taxable income. 12 HFB FINANCIAL CORPORATION PART II OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1.
