NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Quarter Ended June 30, 2003 (unaudited) These Notes to Financial Statements reflect events subsequent to December 31, 2002, the date of the most recent Report of Independent Auditors, through the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2003. These Notes to Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with Financial Information and Other Information required to be furnished as part of this Report, in particular, (1) Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002 and for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002, with respect to the Company's capital requirements and liquidity, (2) Part II, Item 6, Reports on Form 8-K and (3) the Company's Annual Report - Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002, incorporated herein by reference. NOTE 1 -- Principles of Consolidation Penseco Financial Services Corporation (Company) is a financial holding company, incorporated under the laws of Pennsylvania. It is the parent company of Penn Security Bank and Trust Company (Bank), a Pennsylvania state chartered bank. Intercompany transactions have been eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. The accounting policies of the Company conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and with general practices within the banking industry. NOTE 2 -- Basis of Presentation The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information. In the opinion of management, all adjustments that are of a normal recurring nature and are considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. They are not, however, necessarily indicative of the results of consolidated operations for a full year. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company's Annual Report - Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002. NOTE 3 -- Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to the determination of the allowance for losses on loans and the valuation of real estate acquired in connection with foreclosures or in satisfaction of loans. In connection with the determination of the allowance for losses on loans and foreclosed real estate, management obtains independent appraisals for significant properties. NOTE 4 -- Investment Securities Investments in securities are classified in two categories and accounted for as follows: Securities Held-to-Maturity. Bonds, notes and debentures for which the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are reported at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts computed on the straight-line basis, which approximates the interest method, over the remaining period to maturity. Mortgage-backed securities are reported at cost, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discounts based on the estimated percentage of principal remaining utilizing prepayment speeds estimated on the purchase date, or actually experienced whichever is greater. Securities Available-for-Sale. Bonds, notes, debentures, and certain equity securities not classified as securities to be held-to-maturity are carried at fair value with unrealized holding gains and losses, net of tax, reported as a net amount in a separate component of stockholders' equity until realized. Realized gains and losses on the sale of securities available-for-sale are determined using the specific identification method and are reported as a separate component of other income in the Statements of Income. Unrealized gains and losses are included as a separate item in computing comprehensive income. The amortized cost and fair value of investment securities at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 are as follows: Available-for-Sale Gross Gross Amortized Unrealized Unrealized Fair June 30, 2003 Cost Gains Losses Value - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- U.S. Treasury securities $ 30,051 $ 991 $ - $ 31,042 U.S. Agency securities 42,652 2,306 - 44,958 States & political subdivisions 20,155 839 - 20,994 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total Debt Securities 92,858 4,136 - 96,994 Equity securities 5,590 194 - 5,784 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total Available-for-Sale $ 98,448 $ 4,330 $ - $ 102,778 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Available-for-Sale Gross Gross Amortized Unrealized Unrealized Fair December 31, 2002 Cost Gains Losses Value - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- U.S. Treasury securities $ 35,098 $ 1,358 $ - $ 36,456 U.S. Agency securities 47,679 2,927 - 50,606 States & political subdivisions 19,431 361 127 19,665 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total Debt Securities 102,208 4,646 127 106,727 Equity securities 1,215 141 - 1,356 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total Available-for-Sale $ 103,423 $ 4,787 $ 127 $ 108,083 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Held-to-Maturity Gross Gross Amortized Unrealized Unrealized Fair June 30, 2003 Cost Gains Losses Value - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- U.S. Agency Obligations: Mortgage-backed securities $ 130,668 $ 1,051 $ 16 $ 131,703 States & political subdivisions 29,540 3,131 - 32,671 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total Held-to-Maturity $ 160,208 $ 4,182 $ 16 $ 164,374 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Held-to-Maturity Gross Gross Amortized Unrealized Unrealized Fair December 31, 2002 Cost Gains Losses Value - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- U.S. Agency Obligations: Mortgage-backed securities $ 1,420 $ 8 $ 20 $ 1,408 States & political subdivisions 29,629 1,949 - 31,578 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total Held-to-Maturity $ 31,049 $ 1,957 $ 20 $ 32,986 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The amortized cost and fair value of debt securities at June 30, 2003 by contractual maturity are shown below.

The loans are secured by a general collateral pledge of the Company. A summary of the long-term debt at June 30, 2003 is as follows: Note payable, due in monthly installments of $161, including principal and interest at a fixed rate of 2.73%, maturing March, 2008. $ 8,579 Note payable, due in monthly installments of $253, including principal and interest at a fixed rate of 3.22%, maturing March, 2010. 18,392 Note payable, due in monthly installments of $430, including principal and interest at a fixed rate of 3.74%, maturing March, 2013. 42,109 Note payable, due in monthly installments of $186, including principal and interest at a fixed rate of 4.69%, maturing March, 2023. 28,780 -------- Total long-term debt $ 97,860 ======== The Company has agreed to maintain sufficient qualifying collateral to fully secure the above borrowings. Aggregate maturities of long-term debt at June 30, 2003 are as follows: June 30, Principal ----------- --------- 2004 $ 8,749 2005 9,060 2006 9,382 2007 9,716 2008 9,579 Thereafter 51,374 --------- $ 97,860 ========= NOTE 6 -- Regulatory Matters The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the Federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory--and possibly additional discretionary--actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company and the Bank's Consolidated Financial Statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company and the Bank's capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgements by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the Capital Adequacy table below) of Tier I and Total Capital to risk-weighted assets and of Tier I Capital to average assets (Leverage ratio). The table also presents the Company's actual capital amounts and ratios. The Bank's actual capital amounts and ratios are substantially identical to the Company's. Management believes, as of June 30, 2003, that the Company and the Bank meet all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject. As of June 30, 2003, the most recent notification from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) categorized the Company as "well capitalized" under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as "well capitalized", the Company must maintain minimum Tier I Capital, Total Capital and Leverage ratios as set forth in the Capital Adequacy table. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Company's categorization by the FDIC. The Company and Bank are also subject to minimum capital levels, which could limit the payment of dividends, although the Company and Bank currently have capital levels, which are in excess of minimum capital level ratios required. The Pennsylvania Banking Code restricts capital funds available for payment of dividends to the Retained Earnings of the Bank. Accordingly, at June 30, 2003, the balances in the Capital Stock and Surplus accounts totalling $10,840 are unavailable for dividends. In addition, the Bank is subject to restrictions imposed by Federal law on certain transactions with the Company's affiliates. These transactions include extensions of credit, purchases of or investments in stock issued by the affiliate, purchases of assets subject to certain exceptions, acceptance of securities issued by an affiliate as collateral for loans, and the issuance of guarantees, acceptances, and letters of credit on behalf of affiliates. These restrictions prevent the Company's affiliates from borrowing from the Bank unless the loans are secured by obligations of designated amounts. Further, the aggregate of such transactions by the Bank with a single affiliate is limited in amount to 10 percent of the Bank's Capital Stock and Surplus, and the aggregate of such transactions with all affiliates is limited to 20 percent of the Bank's Capital Stock and Surplus. The Federal Reserve System has interpreted "Capital Stock and Surplus" to include undivided profits.

PART 1. FINANCIAL INFORMATION, Item 2-- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following commentary provides an overview of the financial condition and significant changes in the results of operations of Penseco Financial Services Corporation and it's subsidiary, Penn Security Bank and Trust Company, for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002 and for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002. Throughout this review, the subsidiary of Penseco Financial Services Corporation, Penn Security Bank and Trust Company, is referred to as the "Company". All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. All information is presented in thousands of dollars, except as indicated. Overview of Financial Condition Penseco Financial Services Corporation reported net income of $1,585 or $.73 per share for the three months ended June 30, 2003 compared with $1,567 or $.73 per share reported for the three months ended June 30, 2002. This is a result of the Company experiencing declining net interest income due to the sale of all new and refinancing fixed rate mortgages in the secondary market, which was mostly offset by a gain on the sale of these new and refinanced mortgages to the secondary market, along with increases in other fee based income. The second quarter net interest income was aided by the leverage transaction noted below. The Company reported a decrease in net income of $112 or 3.4% to $3,144 or $1.46 per share for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared with $3,256 or $1.52 per share reported for the first half of 2002, largely due to the sale of all new and refinanced fixed rate mortgages in the secondary market. The second quarter net interest income was aided by the leverage transaction noted below. Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin Net interest income, the largest contributor to the Company's earnings, is defined as the difference between interest income on assets and the cost of funds supporting those assets. Earning assets are composed primarily of loans and investments while deposits, short-term and long-term borrowings represent interest-bearing liabilities. Variations in the volume and mix of these assets and liabilities, as well as changes in the yields earned and rates paid, are determinants of changes in net interest income. Net interest income after provision for loan losses decreased $345 or 7.1% from $4,860 for the three months ended June 30, 2002 to $4,515 in 2003. In addition, earning assets repriced downward 114 basis points due to the refinancing of long-term fixed-rate real estate loans with historical interest rates at 45 year lows, somewhat offset by higher securities portfolio income. Liabilities repriced downward 22 basis points, as shown on the following schedule. In the three months ended June 30, 2003, the net interest margin was 3.36%, decreasing 99 basis points from 4.35% in the same period of 2002. Net interest income after provision for loan losses decreased $345 or 7.1% to $4,515 for the three months ended June 30, 2003 compared to $4,860 for the three months ended June 30, 2002. Earnings assets repriced downward 1.14 basis points, largely due to the reduction in out loan portfolio due to the refinancing of residential portfolio mortgage loans with low fixed rates which were then sold in the secondary market with rates at 45 year lows. Offsetting this decrease was increased securities portfolio income and decreased interest costs on deposits. The net interest margin represents the Company's net yield on its earning assets and is calculated as net interest income divided by average earning assets. In the three months ended June 30, 2003, net interest margin was 3.36% decreasing 99 basis points from 4.35% in the same period of 2002. Total average earning assets and average interest bearing funds increased in the three months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to 2002. Average earning assets increased $94.6 million or 20.2%, from $468.5 million in 2002 to $563.1 million in 2003 and average interest bearing funds increased $81.9 million, or 22.2%, from $369.3 million to $451.2 million for the same periods. As a percentage of average assets, earning assets increased to 96.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2003 from 94.9% for the year ago period. Changes in the mix of both earning assets and funding sources also impacted net interest income in the three months of 2003 and 2002. Average loans as a percentage of average earning assets decreased from 68.3% in 2002 to 48.3% in 2003; average investments increased $130.9 million from 29.4% to 47.7%. Average short-term investments, federal funds sold and interest bearing balances with banks increased $11.7 million to $22.3 from $10.6 and also increased as a percentage of average earning assets from 2.3% in 2002 to 4.0% in 2003. Average time deposits decreased $17.4 million or 10.9% from 43.1% in 2002 to 31.4% in 2003. However, average short-term borrowings, long-term borrowings and repurchase agreements increased $100.3 from 5.3% in 2002 to 26.6% in 2003, as a percentage of funding sources. Shifts in the interest rate environment and competitive factors affected the rates paid for funds as well as the yields earned on assets. The investment securities tax equivalent yield decreased 102 basis points from 6.24% in the three months ended June 30, 2002 to 5.22% for 2003. Also, average loan yields decreased 102 basis points, from 6.65% in the three months ended June 30, 2002 to 5.63% in 2003. The average time deposit costs decreased 84 basis points from 3.62% in 2002 to 2.78% in 2003, along with money market accounts decreasing 72 basis points from 1.66% in 2002 to .94% in 2003. These are the primary causes of the decrease in the total cost of funds rate from 2.29% in 2002 to 2.07% in 2003. The most significant change in net interest income has been the reduction in our loan portfolio due to the refinancing of higher rate, long-term, fixed-rate real estate loans, which were sold in the secondary market. A gain in the sale of mortgage loans partially offset the decline in net interest income. In order to supplement net interest income, $100,000 in funds were borrowed on March 13, 2003 in four separate borrowings amortizing over 5, 7, 10 and 20 year periods. These funds were used to purchase $100,000 worth of a pool of 20 year mortgages guaranteed by Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac). The Bank recorded $260 net interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2003. It is anticipated that this transaction will result in an additional $439 in net interest income for the balance of the current year with an estimated net margin of 1% for this year, declining to .8% in the tenth year and for every year thereafter. The borrowing was structured so as to fully fund the remaining balance of the mortgage pool even if rates were to increase several hundred basis points. Distribution of Assets, Liabilities and Stockholders' Equity / Interest Rates and Interest Differential The table below presents average balances, interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis and interest expense, as well as average rates earned and paid on the Company's major asset and liability items for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002. - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ June 30, 2003 June 30, 2002 ASSETS Average Revenue/ Yield/ Average Revenue/ Yield/ Balance Expense Rate Balance Expense Rate - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Investment Securities Available-for-sale: U.S. Treasury securities $ 31,218 $ 322 4.13% $ 33,723 $ 373 4.42% U.S. Agency obligations 47,767 668 5.59% 55,335 855 6.18% States & political subdivisions 19,766 213 6.53% 14,994 188 7.60% Federal Home Loan Bank stock 5,554 31 2.23% 2,087 16 3.07% Other 395 2 2.03% 269 3 1.11% Held-to-maturity: U.S. Agency obligations - GNMA 31,549 316 4.01% 1,655 16 3.87% U.S. Agency obligations - FHLMC 101,956 1,185 4.65% - - - States & political subdivisions 30,352 432 8.63% 29,655 397 8.11% Loans, net of unearned income: Real estate mortgages 201,111 2,957 5.88% 246,176 4,247 6.90% Commercial 32,028 380 4.75% 34,764 439 5.05% Consumer and other 39,093 497 5.09% 39,239 639 6.51% Federal funds sold 12,308 38 1.23% 5,085 18 1.42% Interest on balances with banks 10,008 26 1.04% 5,553 21 1.51% - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Total Earning Assets/Total Interest Income 563,105 $ 7,067 5.02% 468,535 $ 7,212 6.16% - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Cash and due from banks 8,397 8,188 Bank premises and equipment 9,814 10,288 Accrued interest receivable 3,424 3,486 Other assets 5,059 7,235 Less: Allowance for loan losses 3,298 3,917 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Total Assets $ 586,501 $ 493,815 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LIABILITIES AND STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY Deposits: Demand-Interest bearing $ 29,171 $ 42 0.58% $ 27,143 $ 40 0.59% Savings 76,154 139 0.73% 72,817 176 0.97% Money markets 84,200 198 0.94% 90,605 377 1.66% Time - Over $100 32,882 218 2.64% 38,101 366 3.84% Time - Other 108,794 765 2.81% 120,996 1,076 3.56% Federal funds purchased - - - - - - Repurchase agreements 20,864 48 0.92% 19,176 75 1.56% Short-term borrowings 222 1 1.80% 486 2 1.65% Long-term borrowings 98,904 925 3.74% - - - - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Total Interest Bearing Liabilities/ Total Interest Expense 451,191 $ 2,336 2.07% 369,324 $ 2,112 2.29% - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Demand - Non-interest bearing 72,282 66,836 All other liabilities 2,954 1,896 Stockholders' equity 60,074 55,759 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Total Liabilities and Stockholders' Equity $ 586,501 $ 493,815 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Interest Spread 2.95% 3.87% - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Net Interest Income $ 4,731 $ 5,100 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ FINANCIAL RATIOS Net interest margin 3.36% 4.35% Return on average assets 1.08% 1.27% Return on average equity 10.55% 11.24% Average equity to average assets 10.24% 11.29% Dividend payout ratio 41.10% 39.47% - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Net interest income after provision for loan losses decreased $892 or 9.1% from $9,854 for the first half of 2002 to $8,962 in 2003. Earning assets repriced downward 107 basis points, largely due to the reduction in our loan portfolio due to the refinancing of residential portfolio mortgage loans with low fixed rates, which then were sold in the secondary market with rates at 45 year lows. Offsetting this decrease was increased securities portfolio income and decreased interest costs on deposits. The net interest margin represents the Company's net yield on its earning assets and is calculated as net interest income divided by average earning assets. In the first six months of 2003, the net interest margin was 3.61%, decreasing 80 basis points from 4.41% in the same period of 2002. Total average earning assets and average interest bearing funds increased in the first half of 2003 as compared to 2002. Average earning assets increased $55.3 million or 11.9%, from $466.2 million in 2002 to $521.5 million in 2003 and average interest bearing funds increased $43.0 million, or 11.8%, from $364.9 million to $407.9 million for the same periods. As a percentage of average assets, earning assets increased to 95.8% for the first half of 2003 from 95.2% for the year ago period. Interest bearing liabilities increased to 75.0% from 74.5%, as a percentage of total liabilities and stockholders' equity, compared to the year ago period. Changes in the mix of both earning assets and funding sources also impacted net interest income in the first half of 2003 and 2002. Average loans as a percentage of average earning assets decreased from 69.3% in 2002 to 53.7% in 2003; average investments increased from 28.7% to 41.6%. Average short-term investments, federal funds sold and interest bearing balances with banks increased $15.2 million to $24.1 from $8.9 and also increased as a percentage of average earning assets from 1.9% in 2002 to 4.6% in 2003. Average time deposits decreased $16.9 million from 43.5% in 2002 to 34.8% in 2003. However, average short-term borrowings, long-term borrowings and repurchase agreements increased $58.8 from 5.2% in 2002 to 19.1% in 2003, as a percentage of funding sources. Shifts in the interest rate environment and competitive factors affected the rates paid for funds as well as the yields earned on assets. The investment securities tax equivalent yield decreased 73 basis points from 6.19% in the first half of 2002 to 5.46% for 2003. Also, average loan yields decreased 95 basis points, from 6.69% in the first half of 2001 to 5.74% in 2003. The average time deposit costs decreased from 3.71% in 2002 to 2.84% in 2003, along with money market accounts decreasing 59 basis points from 1.54% in 2002 to .95% in 2003. These are the primary determinants of the decrease in the total cost of funds rate from 2.32% in 2002 to 1.97% in 2003.

Also, it was noted for the year to date period, the Bank recorded $311 net interest income as of June 30, 2002. It is anticipated that this transaction will result in an additional $439 in net interest income for the balance of the current year with an estimated net margin of 1% for this year, declining to .8% in the tenth year and for every year thereafter.

The process of determining the adequacy of the allowance is necessarily judgmental and subject to changes in external conditions. The allowance for loan losses reflects management's judgment as to the level considered appropriate to absorb such losses based upon a review of many factors, including historical loss experience, adverse situations that may affect the borrower's ability to repay (including the timing of future payments), economic conditions and trends, loan portfolio volume and mix, loan performance trends, the value and adequacy of collateral, and the Company's internal credit review process. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that existing levels of the allowance will ultimately prove adequate to cover actual loan losses. The quarterly provision for loan losses charged to operating expense is that amount which is sufficient to bring the balance of the allowance for possible loan losses to an adequate level to absorb anticipated losses. Based on this ongoing evaluation, management determines the provision necessary to maintain an appropriate allowance. For the three months ended June 30, 2003, the provision for loan losses decreased to $216 from $240 in the three months ended June 30, 2002. Loans charged off totaled $18 and recoveries were $2 for the three months ended June 30, 2003. In the same period of 2002, loans charged off were $60 and recoveries were $20. In the first half of 2003, the provision for loan losses was $455, an increase from $419 in the first six months of 2002. Loans charged-off totaled $305 and recoveries were $3 for the six months ended June 30, 2003. In the same period of 2002, loans charged off were $89, offset by recoveries of $20. At June 30, 2003, the allowance for loan losses was set at $3,500 or 1.34% of loans based upon the Bank's analysis methodology and as an act of prudence by management. Other Income The following table sets forth information by category of other income for the Company for three months ended June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002, respectively: June 30, June 30, Three Months Ended: 2003 2002 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Trust department income $ 321 $ 352 Service charges on deposit accounts 288 284 Merchant transaction income 924 920 Other fee income 311 239 Other operating income 501 183 Realized losses on securities, net - - - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Total Other Income $ 2,345 1,978 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Other income increased $367 or 18.6% to $2,345 from $1,978 for the three months ended June 30, 2002. Trust department income decreased $31 or 8.8% due to lower market valuations. Other fee income increased $72 or 30.1%, mostly due to fee income on mortgage loans serviced for others. Other operating income grew $318 or 173.8%, which included gains on the sale of new and refinanced fixed-rate residential real estate loans of $388, which was partially offset by a decrease in brokerage income of $71, largely due to the investor malaise and general stock market decline and low interest rates. The following table sets forth information by category of other income for the Company for six months ended June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002, respectively: June 30, June 30, Six Months Ended: 2003 2002 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Trust department income $ 636 $ 646 Service charges on deposit accounts 565 552 Merchant transaction income 2,412 2,610 Other fee income 595 457 Other operating income 883 397 Realized losses on securities, net - - - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Total Other Income $ 5,091 $ 4,662 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Other income increased $429 or 9.2% to $5,091 from $4,662 during the first half of 2003. Contributions came from an increase in other fee income of $138 or 30.2% to $595 from $457 partly from $60 in other service charge commissions and fees, as well as $73 in fees earned on mortgage loans serviced for others. Other operating income increased $486 or 122.4% to $883 from $397 mainly due to gains on the sale of new low fixed-rate residential real estate loans of $642, which was partially offset by a decrease in brokerage income of $155, largely due to the general investor malaise. Also, merchant transaction income decreased $198 or 7.6%, mostly the result of a large university discontinuing the credit card payment of tuition. Other Expenses The following table sets forth information by category of other expenses for the Company for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002, respectively: June 30, June 30, Three Months Ended: 2003 2002 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Salaries and employee benefits $ 2,198 $ 2,217 Expense of premises and fixed assets 631 628 Merchant transaction expenses 795 794 Other operating expenses 1,216 1,173 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Total Other Expenses $ 4,840 $ 4,812 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Other expenses increased $28 or .5% to $4,840 in the first three months of 2003 as compared to $4,812 in the same period of 2002. Salaries and benefits decreased $19 or .5% due management's diligence on controlling personnel costs offset by an increase of $43 or 43.9% in pension costs. Other operating expenses increased $43 or 3.7% to $1,216 from $1,173 mainly from miscellaneous increased operating expenses. The following table sets forth information by category of other expenses for the Company for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002, respectively: June 30, June 30, Six Months Ended: 2003 2002 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Salaries and employee benefits $ 4,400 $ 4,340 Expense of premises and fixed assets 1,322 1,295 Merchant transaction expenses 2,059 2,259 Other operating expenses 2,328 2,331 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Total Other Expenses $ 10,109 $ 10,225 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Other expenses decreased $116 or 1.1% to $10,109 from $10,225 during the first half of 2003. Salaries and employee benefits increased only $60 or 1.4%, despite increased pension costs of $120. Merchant expenses decreased $200 or 8.9%, largely due to lower transaction volume mostly the result of a large university discontinuing the credit card payment of tuition. Applicable income taxes decreased $235 due to increased tax-free income from our securities portfolio along with lower taxable income. Loan Portfolio Details regarding the Company's loan portfolio: June 30, December 31, As Of: 2003 2002 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Real estate - construction and land development $ 3,464 $ 5,031 Real estate mortgages 188,580 217,883 Commercial 31,121 30,077 Credit card and related plans 2,242 2,320 Installment 26,069 27,306 Obligations of states & political subdivisions 10,506 6,239 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Loans, net of unearned income 261,982 288,856 Less: Allowance for loan losses 3,500 3,347 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Loans, net $ 258,482 $ 285,509 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Loan Quality The comprehensive lending policy established by the Board of Directors guides the lending activities of the Company. Loans must meet criteria, which include consideration of the character, capacity and capital of the borrower, collateral provided for the loan, and prevailing economic conditions. Regardless of credit standards, there is risk of loss inherent in every loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses is an amount that management believes will be adequate to absorb possible losses on existing loans that may become uncollectible, based on evaluations of the collectibility of the loans. The evaluations take into consideration such factors as change in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality, review of specific problem loans, industry experience, collateral value and current economic conditions that may affect the borrower's ability to pay. Management believes that the allowance for loan losses is adequate. While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, future additions to the allowance may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company's allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require the Company to recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgment of information available to them at the time of their examination. The allowance for loan losses is increased by periodic charges against earnings as a provision for loan losses, and decreased periodically by charge-offs of loans (or parts of loans) management has determined to be uncollectible, net of actual recoveries on loans previously charged-off. Non-Performing Assets Non-performing assets consist of non-accrual loans, loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest and other real estate owned. The following table sets forth information regarding non-performing assets as of the dates indicated: June 30, December 31, June 30, As Of: 2003 2002 2002 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Non-accrual loans $ 1,638 $ 2,245 $ 2,104 Loans past due 90 days or more and accruing: Guaranteed student loans 247 394 301 Credit card and home equity loans 20 - 3 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total non-performing loans 1,905 2,639 2,408 Other real estate owned 419 59 - - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total non-performing assets $ 2,324 2,698 2,408 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Loans are generally placed on a non-accrual status when principal or interest is past due 90 days or when payment in full is not anticipated. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, all interest previously accrued but not collected is charged against current income. Loans are returned to accrual status when past due interest is collected and the collection of principal is probable. Loans on which the accrual of interest has been discontinued or reduced amounted to $1,638 and $2,104 at June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002, respectively. If interest on those loans had been accrued, such income would have been $178 and $195 for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002, respectively. Interest income on those loans, which is recorded only when received, amounted to $15 and $17 for June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002, respectively. There are no commitments to lend additional funds to individuals whose loans are in non-accrual status. The management process for evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses includes reviewing each month's loan committee reports, which list all loans that do not meet certain internally developed criteria as to collateral adequacy, payment performance, economic conditions and overall credit risk. These reports also address the current status and actions in process on each listed loan. From this information, adjustments are made to the allowance for loan losses. Such adjustments include both specific loss allocation amounts and general provisions by loan category based on present and past collection experience, nature and volume of the loan portfolio, overall quality, and current economic conditions that may affect the borrower's ability to pay. As of June 30, 2003 there are no significant loans as to which management has serious doubt about their collectibility other than what is included above. At June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, the Company did not have any loans specifically classified as impaired. Most of the Company's lending activity is with customers located in the Company's geographic market area and repayment thereof is affected by economic conditions in this market area. Loan Loss Experience The following tables present the Company's loan loss experience during the periods indicated: June 30, June 30, Three Months Ended: 2003 2002 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Balance at beginning of period $ 3,300 $ 3,750 Charge-offs: Real estate mortgages 5 29 Commercial and all others - 23 Credit card and related plans 13 7 Installment loans - 1 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total charge-offs 18 60 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Recoveries: Real estate mortgages - 19 Commercial and all others - - Credit card and related plans 1 - Installment loans 1 1 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total recoveries 2 20 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net charge-offs (recoveries) 16 40 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Provision charged to operations 216 240 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Balance at End of Period $ 3,500 $ 3,950 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ratio of net charge-offs (recoveries) to average loans outstanding 0.006% 0.012% - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- June 30, June 30, Six Months Ended: 2003 2002 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Balance at beginning of period $ 3,347 $ 3,600 Charge-offs: Real estate mortgages 6 54 Commercial and all others 276 23 Credit card and related plans 20 11 Installment loans 3 1 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total charge-offs 305 89 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Recoveries: Real estate mortgages - 19 Commercial and all others - - Credit card and related plans 2 - Installment loans 1 1 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total recoveries 3 20 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net charge-offs (recoveries) 302 69 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Provision charged to operations 455 419 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Balance at End of Period $ 3,500 $ 3,950 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ratio of net charge-offs (recoveries) to average loans outstanding 0.108% 0.021% - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Due to the continuing economic uncertainties, management believes the allowance for loan losses is considered adequate based on its methodology. The allowance for loan losses, as a percentage of total loans, stands at 1.34% at June 30, 2003 and 1.22% at June 30, 2002. The allowance for loan losses is allocated as follows: As Of: June 30, 2003 December 31, 2002 June 30, 2002 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Amount %* Amount %* Amount %* - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Real estate mortgages $ 1,500 73% $ 1,600 77% $ 1,800 77% Commercial and all others 1,475 16% 1,222 13% 1,625 13% Credit card and related plans 175 1% 175 1% 175 1% Personal installment loans 350 10% 350 9% 350 9% - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total $ 3,500 100% $ 3,347 100% $ 3,950 100% - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Percent of loans in each category to total loans Liquidity The objective of liquidity management is to maintain a balance between sources and uses of funds in such a way that the cash requirements of customers for loans and deposit withdrawals are met in the most economical manner. Management monitors its liquidity position continuously in relation to trends of loans and deposits for short-term as well as long-term requirements. Liquid assets are monitored on a daily basis to assure maximum utilization. Management also manages its liquidity requirements by maintaining an adequate level of readily marketable assets and access to short-term funding sources. Management does not foresee any adverse trends in liquidity. The Company remains in a highly liquid condition both in the short and long term. Sources of liquidity include the Company's U.S. Treasury and U.S. Agency bond portfolios, additional deposits, earnings, overnight loans to and from other companies (Federal Funds) and lines of credit at the Federal Reserve Bank and the Federal Home Loan Bank. The Company is not a party to any commitments, guarantees or obligations that could materially affect its liquidity. Commitments And Contingent Liabilities In the normal course of business, there are outstanding commitments and contingent liabilities, created under prevailing terms and collateral requirements such as commitments to extend credit, financial guarantees and letters of credit, which are not reflected in the accompanying Financial Statements. The Company does not anticipate any losses as a result of these transactions. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Balance Sheets. The contract or notional amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Company has in particular classes of financial instruments. Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have expiration dates of one year or less or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. Related Parties The Company does not have any material transactions involving related persons or entities, other than traditional banking transactions, which are made on the same terms and conditions as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with unrelated parties. The Bank has issued a standby letter of credit for the account of a related party in the amount of $6,353. Capital Resources A strong capital position is important to the continued profitability of the Company and promotes depositor and investor confidence. The Company's capital provides a basis for future growth and expansion and also provides additional protection against unexpected losses. Additional sources of capital would come from retained earnings from the operations of the Company and from the sale of additional common stock. Management has no plans to offer additional common stock at this time. The Company's total risk-based capital ratio was 19.42% at June 30, 2003. The Company's risk-based capital ratio is more than the 10.00% ratio that Federal regulators use as the "well capitalized" threshold. This is the current criteria which the FDIC uses in determining the lowest insurance rate for deposit insurance. The Company's risk-based capital ratio is more than double the 8.00% limit, which determines whether a company is "adequately capitalized". Under these rules, the Company could significantly increase its assets and still comply with these capital requirements without the necessity of increasing its equity capital. PART 1. FINANCIAL INFORMATION, Item 3-- QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and rates. The Company's market risk arises principally from interest rate risk inherent in its lending, deposit and borrowing activities. Management actively monitors and manages its interest rate risk exposure. Although the Company manages other risks, such as credit quality and liquidity risk in the normal course of business, management considers interest rate risk to be its most significant market risk and the risk that could potentially have the largest material effect on the Company's financial condition and results of operations. Other types of market risks such as foreign currency exchange risk and commodity price risk do not arise in the normal course of community banking activities. Achieving consistent growth in net interest income is the primary goal of the Company's asset/liability function. The Company attempts to control the mix and maturities of assets and liabilities to achieve consistent growth in net interest income despite changes in market interest rates. The Company seeks to accomplish this goal while maintaining adequate liquidity and capital. A continuation of historically low interest rates will most likely affect negatively the Company's net interest income. The Company continues to evaluate its mix of assets and liabilities in response to the changing economy. PART 1. FINANCIAL INFORMATION, Item 4-- DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Based on the evaluations by the Company's principal executive officer, Otto P. Robinson, Jr., President and the Company's principal financial officer, Patrick Scanlon, Controller, of the Company's Disclosure Controls and Procedures as of June 30, 2003, they have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls are effective, reasonably ensure that material information relating to the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries is made known to them by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which this report is being prepared, and identify significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in internal controls which could adversely affect the Company's ability to record, process, summarize and report financial data. Based on information available to them, they are not aware of significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in the Company's internal control system. Based on information available to them, they are not aware of any changes made in internal controls or in other factors during the reporting period that could materially affect or is reasonably likely to materially affect the Company's internal controls over financial reporting. Based on information available to them, they are not aware of any fraud that involves management or other employees of the Company. Despite these and other controls and procedures, the Company's two hundred or so employees process over 10 million financial transactions every year. The Company's computer systems consist of some 17 million lines of code used in the processing of this financial information. Financial accounting rules encompass thousands of pages of instructions and contain many confusing and "gray" areas. From time to time honest errors in the entry, processing, or reporting of this information are discovered or a dishonest or disloyal employee surfaces. Fortunately, in the past any such errors or discoveries have not been material and therefore we have never had to restate the Company's financial results. The probability is that we won't in the future, but the possibility does exist and the certifications marked as exhibits 31 and 32 are made subject to these contingencies. PART II.
