Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Accounting and Consolidation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
First Mid-Illinois Bancshares, Inc. ("Company") and its wholly-owned
subsidiaries: Mid-Illinois Data Services, Inc. ("MIDS"), The Checkley Agency,
Inc. ("Checkley") and First Mid-Illinois Bank & Trust, N.A. ("First Mid Bank")
and its wholly-owned subsidiary First Mid-Illinois Insurance Services, Inc.
("First Mid Insurance"). All significant inter-company balances and transactions
have been eliminated in consolidation. The financial information reflects all
adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair
presentation of the results of the interim periods ended June 30, 2003, and
2002, and all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of
the interim period ended June 30, 2003, are not necessarily indicative of the
results expected for the year ending December 31, 2003.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X
and do not include all of the information required by accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial
statements and related footnote disclosures. These financial statements should
be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes
thereto included in the Company's 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 146, "Accounting for
Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities" ("SFAS 146"). SFAS 146
requires companies to recognize costs associated with exit or disposal
activities when they are incurred rather than at the date of a commitment to an
exit or disposal plan. The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS 146 for exit
or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002 on January 1, 2003, as
required. The adoption did not have a material effect on the Company's financial
position or results of operations.

In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45, "Guarantor's
Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect
Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others" ("FIN 45"). This Interpretation provides
guidance on disclosures to be made by a guarantor about its obligations under
certain guarantees that it has issued. It also clarifies that a guarantor is
required to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the fair
value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee. The disclosure
requirements were effective for financial statement periods after December 15,
2002. The Company adopted the initial measurement and recognition provisions
applicable to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002 on January
1, 2003, as required. The adoption did not have a material impact on the
Company's financial position or results of operations.


In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidated
Variable Interest Entities"("FIN 46"). The objective of FIN 46 is to provide
guidance on how to identify a variable interest entity and determine when the
assets, liabilities, non-controlling interests, and results of operations of a
variable interest in an entity need to be included in a company's consolidated
financial statements. A company that holds variable interests in an entity will
need to consolidate the entity if the company's interest in the variable
interest entity is such that the company will absorb a majority of the variable
interest entity's losses and/or receive a majority of the entity's expected
residual returns, if they occur. FIN 46 also requires additional disclosures by
primary beneficiaries and other significant variable interest holders. The
provisions of FIN 46 will be effective July 1, 2003. The Company does not expect
the provisions of FIN 46 to have a material impact on its financial position or
results of operations.

In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, "Amendment of Statement
133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 149"). SFAS 149
amends and clarifies accounting for derivative instruments, including certain
derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities
under Statement 133. SFAS 149 is effective for contracts entered into or
modified after June 30, 2003, and for hedging relationships designated after
June 30, 2003. Management does not expect the provisions of SFAS 149 will have a
material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for
Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and
Equity" ("SFAS 150"). SFAS 150 establishes standards for how an issuer
classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of
both liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial
instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some
circumstances), many of which were previously classified as equity. SFAS 150 is
effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003,
and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period
beginning after June 15, 2003. Management does not expect the provisions of SFAS
150 will have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results
of operations.

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share ("EPS") is calculated as net income divided by
the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is
computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding,
increased by the assumed conversion of the Company's stock options, unless
anti-dilutive. The components of basic and diluted earnings per common share for
the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 were as follows:

Mergers and Acquisitions

On January 29, 2002, the Company acquired all of the issued and
outstanding stock of Checkley, an insurance agency headquartered in Mattoon,
Illinois. Checkley was purchased for cash with a portion ($750,000) paid at
closing and the remainder ($1,000,000) to be paid, pursuant to a promissory
note, over a five-year period ending January 2007. Checkley operates as a
separate subsidiary of the Company and provides customers with commercial
property, casualty, life, auto and home insurance. In order to facilitate this
acquisition, the Company became a financial holding company under the
Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act on December 14, 2001. The results of Checkley's
operations are included in the consolidated financial statements since the
acquisition date.


Goodwill and Intangible Assets

The Company has goodwill from business combinations, intangible assets
from branch acquisitions, identifiable intangible assets assigned to core
deposit relationships and customer lists of insurance agencies acquired, and
intangible assets arising from the rights to service mortgage loans for others.

As of January 1, 2002, the date of adoption of SFAS 142 and the
effective date of SFAS 147, the Company had unamortized goodwill of $9 million,
which was subject to the transition provisions of SFAS 142 and SFAS 147, and is
no longer being amortized. The Company also had $2.1 million of intangible
assets for an acquisition of a branch whereby the liabilities assumed were
greater than the assets obtained and was not considered an acquisition of a
business, $1.3 million of core deposit intangibles, and $217,000 of intangible
assets arising from the rights to service mortgage loans for others, all which
continue to be amortized. In January 2002, the Company added an additional $1.9
million of amortizable intangibles as a result of the acquisition of Checkley.


The following table presents gross carrying amount and accumulated
amortization by major intangible asset class as of June 30, 2003 and December

In accordance with the provisions of SFAS 142, the Company
performed testing of goodwill for impairment as of September 30, 2002 and
determined as of that date that goodwill was not impaired. Management also
concluded that the remaining amounts and amortization periods were appropriate
for all intangible assets. The provisions of SFAS 142 require annual testing of
goodwill and as such, the next testing of goodwill for impairment will be as of
September 30, 2003.




Stock Incentive Plan

The Company accounts for its Stock Incentive Plan in accordance with
the provisions of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, "Accounting
For Stock Issued to Employees," and related interpretations. As such,
compensation cost based on fair value at grant date has not been recognized for
its stock options in the consolidated financial statements. As required by SFAS
123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" as amended by SFAS 148,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation--Transition and Disclosure," the
Company provides pro forma net income and pro forma earnings per share
disclosures for employee stock option grants. The following table illustrates
the effect on net income if the fair-value-based method had been applied.

Forward-Looking Statements

This report contains certain forward-looking statements within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section
21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, such as discussions of
the Company's pricing and fee trends, credit quality and outlook, liquidity, new
business results, expansion plans, anticipated expenses and planned schedules.
The Company intends such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe

uncertainties including: changes in interest rates, general economic conditions,
legislative/regulatory changes, monetary and fiscal policies of the U.S.
government, including policies of the U.S. Treasury and the Federal Reserve
Board, the quality or composition of the loan or investment portfolios, demand
for loan products, deposit flows, competition, demand for financial services in
the Company' market area and accounting principles, policies and guidelines.
These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking
statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. Further

Results of Operations

Net Interest Income

The largest source of revenue for the Company is net interest income.
Net interest income represents the difference between total interest income
earned on earning assets and total interest expense paid on interest-bearing
liabilities. The amount of interest income is dependent upon many factors,
including the volume and mix of earning assets, the general level of interest
rates and the dynamics of changes in interest rates. The cost of funds necessary
to support earning assets varies with the volume and mix of interest-bearing
liabilities and the rates paid to attract and retain such funds.

For purposes of the following discussion and analysis, the interest
earned on tax-exempt securities is adjusted to an amount comparable to interest
subject to normal income taxes. The adjustment is referred to as the
tax-equivalent adjustment. The Company's average balances, interest income and
expense and rates earned or paid for major balance sheet categories are set
forth in the following table (dollars in thousands):

On a tax equivalent basis, net interest income decreased $37,000, or
..3% to $13,431,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2003, from $13,468,000 for
the same period in 2002. The decrease in net interest income was primarily due
to the greater decline in loan interest rates compared to deposit rates, which
resulted in a compression of the interest margin.

For the six months ended June 30, 2003, average earning assets
increased by $68,472,000, or 10.6%, and average interest-bearing liabilities
increased $58,387,000, or 10.6%, compared with average balances for the same
period in 2002. Changes in average balances are shown below:

> Average loans increased by $38.4 million or 8.1% in 2003 as compared
to 2002.

> Average securities increased by $6.3 million or 3.9% in 2003 as
compared to 2002.

> Average interest-bearing deposits increased by $49.3 million or 10.3%
in 2003 as compared to 2002.

> Average securities sold under agreements to repurchase increased by
$9.9 million or 30.9% in 2003 as compared to 2002.

> Average borrowings and other debt decreased by $.6 million or 1.4% in
2003 as compared to 2002.

> Net interest margin has decreased to 3.77% in 2003 from 4.18% in 2002.



Provision for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 2003
was $500,000 compared to $275,000 for the same period in 2002. The increase in
the provision was a result of an increased risk in the loan portfolio, uncertain
economic conditions, and an increase in nonperforming loans from $2,145,000 as
of June 30, 2002 to $5,678,000 as of June 30, 2003. Net charge-offs were
$101,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and $264,000 during the same
period in 2002. For information on loan loss experience and nonperforming loans,
see the "Nonperforming Loans" and "Loan Quality and Allowance for Loan Losses"

Other Income

An important source of the Company's revenue is derived from other
income. The following table sets forth the major components of other income for
the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 (in thousands):

========= ========== ========= ========== ========== ==========



Explanations for the three months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to
the same period in 2002:

< Trust revenues increased $39,000 or 8.7% to $489,000 from $450,000.
Trust assets, reported at market value, were $330 million at June 30,
2003 compared to $293 million at June 30, 2002. The increase in trust
revenues was the result of new business and an increase in equity
prices.

< Revenues from brokerage decreased $9,000 or 11.8% to $67,000 from
$76,000 as a result of a decrease in the number of stock transactions.

< Insurance commissions increased $4,000 or 1.1% to $367,000 from
$363,000. Increased sales of business property and casualty insurance
has increased revenues.



< Fees from service charges increased $320,000 or 41.0% to $1,100,000
from $780,000. This was primarily the result of increased overdraft
fees after implementation of a new program called Payment Privilege in
July 2002. Under Payment Privilege, overdrafts up to a limit of $500
are paid for qualifying customers in exchange for a fee. A greater
number of overdrafts paid has resulted in an increase in fee income.

< Mortgage banking income increased $156,000 or 41.4% to $533,000 from
$377,000. This increase was due to the volume of fixed rate loans
originated and sold by First Mid Bank. The increase in volume is
largely attributed to the decrease in mortgage lending rates. Loans
sold balances are as follows:

< $36.5 million (representing 390 loans) for the 2nd quarter of
2003.
< $17.0 million (representing 180 loans) for the 2nd quarter of
2002.

First Mid Bank generally releases the servicing rights on loans sold
into the secondary market. Accordingly, capitalized originated mortgage
servicing rights are not material to the consolidated financial statements.

< Other income increased $202,000 or 56.6% to $559,000 from $357,000.
This increase was primarily due to fees from ATM usage and placement
of additional ATMs late in 2002.

Explanations for the six months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the
same period in 2002:

< Trust revenues increased $17,000 or 1.8% to $945,000 from $928,000.
Trust assets, reported at market value, were $330 million at June 30,
2003 compared to $293 million at June 30, 2002. The increase in trust
revenues was the result of new business and an increase in equity
prices.

< Revenues from brokerage decreased $10,000 or 7.5% to $124,000 from
$134,000 as a result of a decrease in the number of stock
transactions.

< Insurance commissions increased $224,000 or 40.4% to $778,000 from
$554,000. The increase is due to operating Checkley, which was
acquired January 29, 2002, for the entire period in 2003. In addition,
increased sales of business property and casualty insurance has
increased revenues.


< Fees from service charges increased $621,000 or 40.9% to $2,138,000
from $1,517,000. This was primarily the result of increased overdraft
fees after implementation of a new program called Payment Privilege in
July 2002. Under Payment Privilege, overdrafts up to a limit of $500
are paid for qualifying customers in exchange for a fee. A greater
number of overdrafts paid has resulted in an increase in fee income.

< Sales of investment securities resulted in a net gain of $370,000, as
compared to a net gain of $116,000 for the same quarter in 2002. The
net gain in 2003 resulted primarily from the sale of $14 million of
available-for-sale securities during the first quarter.

< Mortgage banking income increased $379,000 or 53.9% to $1,082,000 from
$703,000. This increase was due to the volume of fixed rate loans
originated and sold by First Mid Bank. The increase in volume is
largely attributed to the decrease in mortgage lending rates. Loans
sold balances are as follows:

< $75.4 million (representing 827 loans) for the 2nd quarter of
2003.
< $39.4 million (representing 435 loans) for the 2nd quarter of
2002.

First Mid Bank generally releases the servicing rights on loans sold
into the secondary market. Accordingly, capitalized originated mortgage
servicing rights are not material to the consolidated financial statements.

< Other income increased $261,000 or 30.8% to $1,108,000 from $847,000.
This increase was primarily due to fees from ATM usage and placement
of additional ATMs late in 2002.

Other Expense

The major categories of other expense include salaries and employee
benefits, occupancy and equipment expenses and other operating expenses
associated with day-to-day operations. The following table sets forth the major
components of other expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and
2002 (in thousands):

========== ========== =========== ========= ========== ===========



Explanations for the three months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to
the same period in 2002:

< Salaries and employee benefits, the largest component of other
expense, increased $319,000 or 10.3% to $3,415,000 from $3,096,000.
This increase can be explained by merit increases for continuing
employees and the addition of branches in Champaign and Maryville in
November 2002. There were 317 full-time equivalent employees at June
30, 2003 compared to 310 at June 30, 2002.

< Occupancy and equipment expense increased $51,000 or 5.1% to
$1,060,000 from $1,009,000. This increase included building
maintenance, utilities and rent expense for Champaign and Maryville
branches added in November 2002.

< Other operating expenses decreased $151,000 or 12.7% to $1,036,000 in
2003 from $1,187,000 in 2002. This decrease was primarily a result of
a write-off of an investment in a venture capital fund during the
second quarter of 2002. The Company has not had any write-downs on
investments during 2003.


< All other categories of operating expenses increased a net of $47,000
or 6.5% to $769,000 from $722,000. This increase was primarily the
result of a promotional mailing and open house for the Maryville
branch.

Explanations for the six months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the
same period in 2002:

< Salaries and employee benefits increased $627,000 or 10.3% to
$6,729,000 from $6,102,000. This increase can be explained by merit
increases for continuing employees, an increase in the number of
employees due to the acquisition of Checkley in January 2002 and the
addition of branches in Champaign and Maryville in November 2002.
There were 317 full-time equivalent employees at June 30, 2003
compared to 310 at June 30, 2002.

< Occupancy and equipment expense increased $143,000 or 7.2% to
$2,123,000 from $1,980,000. This increase included building
maintenance, utilities and rent expense for Checkley, and Champaign
and Maryville branches added in November 2002.

< Other operating expenses decreased $76,000 or 3.6% to $2,034,000 in
2003 from $2,110,000 in 2002. This increase was primarily a result of
a write-off of an investment in a venture capital fund during the
second quarter of 2002. The Company has not had any write-downs on
investments during 2003.

< All other categories of operating expenses increased a net of $7,000
or .5% to $1,460,000 from $1,453,000.

Income Taxes

Total income tax expense amounted to $1,088,000 (33.9% effective tax
rate) for the three months ended June 30, 2003, compared to $1,041,000 (33.7%
effective tax rate) for the same period in 2002. For the six months ended June
30, 2003, total income tax expense amounted to $2,320,000 (34.1% effective tax
rate) compared to $1,986,000 (33.1% effective tax rate) for the same period in
2002. The increase in the effective tax rate in 2003 compared to 2002 is due to
an increase in non-deductible loan interest income and a decrease in deductible
interest income from U.S. Treasury securities, resulting in a larger amount of
non-deductible interest income and greater state income tax expense.

Analysis of Balance Sheets

Loans

The loan portfolio (net of unearned interest) is the largest category
of the Company's earning assets. The following table summarizes the composition
of the loan portfolio as of June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 (in thousands):

June 30, December 31,
2003 2002
-------------- -------------
Real estate - residential $112,555 $116,588
Real estate - agricultural 49,315 47,210
Real estate - commercial 203,308 176,235
-------------- -------------
Total real estate - mortgage $365,178 $340,033
Commercial and agricultural 127,231 127,065
Installment 29,469 31,119
Other 1,380 1,647
-------------- -------------
Total loans $523,258 $499,864
============== =============


Overall loans increased $23 million, or 4.7%. The largest component of
this increase was commercial real estate loans, which increased $27 million, or
15.4%. Total real estate mortgage loans have averaged approximately 70% of the
Company's total loan portfolio for the past several years. This is the result of
the Company's focus on commercial real estate lending and long-term commitment
to residential real estate lending. The balance of real estate loans held for
sale amounted to $6,490,000 and $7,070,000 as of June 30, 2003 and December 31,
2002, respectively.

At June 30, 2003, the Company had loan concentrations in agricultural
industries of $88.3 million, or 16.9%, of outstanding loans and $90.7 million,
or 18.1%, at December 31, 2002. In addition, the Company has a loan
concentration to "operators of non-residential buildings" of $18.1 million or
3.5% of outstanding loans at June 30, 2003, and $12.5 or 2.5% of outstanding
loans at December 31, 2002 and to "motels, hotels and tourist courts" of $17.8
million or 3.4% of outstanding loans at June 30, 2003, and $13.6 million or 2.7%
of outstanding loans at December 31, 2002. The Company had no further loan
concentrations in excess of 25% of Tier 1 risk-based capital.

The following table presents the balance of loans outstanding as of
June 30, 2003, by maturities (dollars in thousands):

============== ============== ============== ==============


(1) Based on scheduled principal repayments.
(2) Includes demand loans, past due loans and overdrafts.


As of June 30, 2003, loans with maturities over one year consisted of
approximately $211,950,000 in fixed rate loans and $89,307,000 in variable rate
loans. The loan maturities noted above are based on the contractual provisions
of the individual loans. Rollovers and borrower requests are handled on a
case-by-case basis.

Nonperforming Loans

Nonperforming loans are defined as: (a) loans accounted for on a
nonaccrual basis; (b) accruing loans contractually past due ninety days or more
as to interest or principal payments; and (c) loans not included in (a) and (b)
above which are defined as "renegotiated loans". The Company's policy is to
cease accrual of interest on all loans that become ninety days past due as to
principal or interest. Nonaccrual loans are returned to accrual status when, in
the opinion of management, the financial position of the borrower indicates
there is no longer any reasonable doubt as to the timely collection of interest
or principal.


The following table presents information concerning the aggregate
amount of nonperforming loans at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 (in
thousands):

June 30, December 31,
2003 2002
------------- --------------
Nonaccrual loans $5,627 $2,961
Renegotiated loans which are performing
in accordance with revised terms 51 188
------------- --------------
Total nonperforming Loans $5,678 $3,149
============= ==============

At June 30, 2003, approximately $2,963,000 of the nonperforming loans
resulted from collateral-dependent loans to three borrowers. The $2,666,000
increase in nonaccrual loans during the six months ended June 30, 2003, resulted
from the net of $4,168,000 of loans put on nonaccrual status, $1,407,000 of
loans brought current or paid-off and $95,000 of loans transferred to other real
estate owned. The increase in nonaccrual loans was primarily due to two
agricultural loans that are secured by real estate.

Interest income that would have been reported if nonaccrual and
renegotiated loans had been performing totaled $138,000 for the six months ended
June 30, 2003 and $158,000 for the year ended December 31, 2002.

Loan Quality and Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses represents management's best estimate of
the reserve necessary to adequately cover probable losses in the loan portfolio.
The provision for loan losses is the charge against current earnings that is
determined by management as the amount needed to maintain an allowance for loan
losses that is adequate but not excessive. In determining the adequacy of the
allowance for loan losses, and therefore the provision to be charged to current
earnings, management relies predominantly on a disciplined credit review and
approval process that extends to the full range of the Company's credit
exposure. The review process is directed by overall lending policy and is
intended to identify, at the earliest possible stage, borrowers who might be
facing financial difficulty. Once identified, the magnitude of exposure to
individual borrowers is quantified in the form of specific allocations of the
allowance for loan losses. Management considers collateral values in the
determination of such specific allocations. Additional factors considered by
management in evaluating the overall adequacy of the allowance include
historical net loan losses, the level and composition of nonaccrual, past due
and renegotiated loans and the current economic conditions in the region where
the Company operates. Management considers the allowance for loan losses a
critical accounting policy.

Management recognizes that there are risk factors that are inherent in
the Company's loan portfolio. All financial institutions face risk factors in
their loan portfolios because risk exposure is a function of the business. The
Company's operations (and therefore its loans) are concentrated in east central
Illinois, an area where agriculture is the dominant industry. Accordingly,
lending and other business relationships with agriculture-based businesses are
critical to the Company's success. At June 30, 2003 the Company's loan portfolio
included $88.3 million of loans to borrowers whose businesses are directly
related to agriculture. The balance decreased by $2.4 million from $90.7 million
at December 31, 2002. While the Company adheres to sound underwriting practices,
including collateralization of loans, any extended period of low commodity
prices, significantly reduced yields on crops and/or reduced levels of
government assistance to the agricultural industry could result in an increase
in the level of problem agriculture loans and potentially result in loan losses
within the agricultural portfolio.


Analysis of the allowance for loan losses as of June 30, 2003 and 2002,
and of changes in the allowance for the three and six month periods ended June
30, 2003 and 2002, was as follows (dollars in thousands):

During the second quarter of 2003, the Company received a recovery of
$382,000 on two commercial real estate loans of a single borrower. The Company
also had charge-offs of $170,000 on a commercial building loan and $80,000 on an
agricultural operating loan secured by crops and real estate.

The Company minimizes credit risk by adhering to sound underwriting and
credit review policies. Management and the board of directors of the Company
review these policies at least annually. Senior management is actively involved
in business development efforts and the maintenance and monitoring of credit
underwriting and approval. The loan review system and controls are designed to
identify, monitor and address asset quality problems in an accurate and timely
manner. The board of directors and management review the status of problem loans
and determine the adequacy of the allowance. In addition to internal policies
and controls, regulatory authorities periodically review asset quality and the
overall adequacy of the allowance for loan losses.

Securities

The Company's overall investment objectives are to insulate the
investment portfolio from undue credit risk, maintain adequate liquidity,
insulate capital against changes in market value and control excessive changes
in earnings while optimizing investment performance. The types and maturities of
securities purchased are primarily based on the Company's current and projected
liquidity and interest rate sensitivity positions. The following table sets
forth the amortized cost of the securities as of June 30, 2003 and December 31,

Repurchase Agreements and Other Borrowings

Securities sold under agreements to repurchase are short-term
obligations of First Mid Bank. First Mid Bank collateralizes these obligations
with certain government securities that are direct obligations of the United
States or one of its agencies. First Mid Bank offers these retail repurchase
agreements as a cash management service to its corporate customers. Other
borrowings consist of Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") advances, federal funds
purchased, and loans (short-term or long-term debt) that the Company has
outstanding.

FHLB advances represent borrowings by First Mid Bank to economically
fund loan demand. The fixed term advances consist of $30.3 million as follows:

< $5 million advance at 3.45% with a 2-year maturity, due 02/28/04
< $5 million advance at 6.16% with a 5-year maturity, due 03/20/05
< $2.3 million advance at 6.10% with a 5-year maturity, due 04/07/05

< $5 million advance at 4.33% with a 10-year maturity, due 11/23/11



Other debt, both short-term and long-term, represents the outstanding
loan balances for the Company. At June 30, 2003, outstanding loan balances
include $8,825,000 on a revolving credit agreement with The Northern Trust
Company with a floating interest rate of 1.25% over the Federal funds rate
(2.35% as of June 30, 2003) and that is set to mature on October 24, 2003. The
loan has a maximum available balance of $15 million. The loan is secured by all
of the common stock of First Mid Bank. The credit agreement contains
requirements for the Company and First Mid Bank to maintain various operating
and capital ratios and also contains requirements for prior lending approval for
certain sales of assets, merger activity, the acquisition or issuance of debt,
and the acquisition of treasury stock. The Company and First Mid Bank were in
compliance with the existing covenants at June 30, 2003 and at December 31,
2002. Management expects to renew this loan with similar terms and conditions.

The balance also includes a $800,000 balance remaining on a promissory
note resulting from the acquisition of Checkley with an annual interest rate
equal to the prime rate listed in the money rate section of the Wall Street
Journal (4.00% as of June 30, 2003) and principal payable annually over five
years, with a final maturity of January 2007.


Interest Rate Sensitivity

The Company seeks to maximize its net interest margin while maintaining
an acceptable level of interest rate risk. Interest rate risk can be defined as
the amount of forecasted net interest income that may be gained or lost due to
changes in the interest rate environment, a variable over which management has
no control. Interest rate risk, or sensitivity, arises when the maturity or
repricing characteristics of interest-bearing assets differ significantly from
the maturity or repricing characteristics of interest-bearing liabilities.

The Company monitors its interest rate sensitivity position to maintain
a balance between rate sensitive assets and rate sensitive liabilities. This
balance serves to limit the adverse effects of changes in interest rates. The
Company's asset/liability management committee oversees the interest rate
sensitivity position and directs the overall allocation of funds.

In the banking industry, a traditional way to measure potential net
interest income exposure to changes in interest rates is through a technique
known as "static GAP" analysis which measures the cumulative differences between
the amounts of assets and liabilities maturing or repricing at various
intervals. By comparing the volumes of interest-bearing assets and liabilities
that have contractual maturities and repricing points at various times in the
future, management can gain insight into the amount of interest rate risk
embedded in the balance sheet.

The following table sets forth the Company's interest rate repricing
gaps for selected maturity periods at June 30, 2003 (in thousands):

The static GAP analysis shows that at June 30, 2003, the Company was
asset sensitive, on a cumulative basis, through the twelve-month time horizon.
This indicates that future increases in interest rates, if any, could have a
positive effect on net interest income. Conversely, future decreases in interest
rates could have an adverse effect on net interest income.

There are several ways the Company measures and manages the exposure to
interest rate sensitivity, static GAP analysis being one. The Company's asset
liability management committee (ALCO) also uses other financial models to
project interest income under various rate scenarios and prepayment/extension
assumptions consistent with the bank's historical experience and with known
industry trends. ALCO meets at least monthly to review the Company's exposure to
interest rate changes as indicated by the various techniques and to make
necessary changes in the composition terms and/or rates of the assets and
liabilities. Based on all information available, management does not believe
that changes in interest rates, which might reasonably be expected to occur in
the next twelve months, will have a material adverse effect on the Company's net
interest income.


Capital Resources

At June 30, 2003, the Company's stockholders' equity had increased
$3,186,000 or 4.8% to $69,993,000 from $66,807,000 as of December 31, 2002.
During the first six months of 2003, net income contributed $4,484,000 to equity
before the payment of dividends to common stockholders. The change in market
value of available-for-sale investment securities increased stockholders' equity
by $193,000, net of tax. Additional purchases of treasury stock (70,051 shares
at an average cost of $29.62 per share) decreased stockholders' equity by
$2,075,000.



The Company is subject to various regulatory capital requirements
administered by the federal banking agencies. Bank holding companies follow
minimum regulatory requirements established by the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System ("Federal Reserve System"), and First Mid Bank follows
similar minimum regulatory requirements established for national banks by the
Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. Failure to meet minimum capital
requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional
discretionary action by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct
material effect on the Company's financial statements.

Quantitative measures established by each regulatory agency to ensure
capital adequacy require the reporting institutions to maintain a minimum total
risk-based capital ratio of 8% and a minimum leverage ratio of 3% for the most
highly rated banks that do not expect significant growth. All other institutions
are required to maintain a minimum leverage ratio of 4%. Management believes
that, as of June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, the Company and First Mid Bank
have met all capital adequacy requirements.

As of June 30, 2003, the most recent notification from the primary
regulator categorized First Mid Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory
framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized,
minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based and Tier 1 leverage ratios must be
maintained as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events since
that notification that management believes have changed this categorization.

additional shares. Treasury stock is further affected by activity in the
Deferred Compensation Plan.

Liquidity

Liquidity represents the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to
meet all present and future financial obligations arising in the daily
operations of the business. Financial obligations consist of the need for funds
to meet extensions of credit, deposit withdrawals and debt servicing. The
Company's liquidity management focuses on the ability to obtain funds
economically through assets that may be converted into cash at minimal costs or
through other sources. The Company's other sources for cash include overnight
Federal fund lines, Federal Home Loan Bank advances, deposits of the State of
Illinois, the ability to borrow at the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, and the
Company's operating line of credit with The Northern Trust Company. Details for
the sources include:

< First Mid Bank has $17 million available in overnight Federal fund
lines, including $10 million from Harris Trust and Savings Bank of
Chicago and $7 million from The Northern Trust Company. Availability
of the funds is subject to the First Mid Bank's meeting minimum
regulatory capital requirements for Total Capital to Risk-Weighted
Assets and Tier 1 Capital to Total Assets. As of June 30, 2003, the
First Mid Bank's ratios of Total Capital to Risk-Weighted Assets of
11.76% and Tier 1 Capital to Total Assets of 7.81% exceeded minimum
regulatory requirements.

< First Mid Bank can also borrow from the Federal Home Loan Bank as a
source of liquidity. Availability of the funds is subject to the
pledging of collateral to the Federal Home Loan Bank. Collateral that
can be pledged includes one-to-four family residential real estate
loans and securities. At June 30, 2003, the excess collateral at the
Federal Home Loan Bank will support approximately $25 million of
additional advances.


< First Mid Bank also receives deposits from the State of Illinois. The
receipt of these funds is subject to competitive bid and requires
collateral to be pledged at the time of placement.

< First Mid Bank is also a member of the Federal Reserve System and can
borrow funds provided that sufficient collateral is pledged.

< In addition, the Company has a revolving credit agreement in the
amount of $15 million with The Northern Trust Company. The Company has
an outstanding balance of $8,825,000 as of June 30, 2003, and
$6,175,000 in available funds. The credit agreement matures on October
24, 2003. The agreement contains requirements for the Company and
First Mid Bank to maintain various operating and capital ratios and
also contains requirements for the Company and First Mid Bank to
maintain various operating and capital ratios and also contains
requirements for prior lender approval for certain sales of assets,
merger activity, the acquisition or issuance of debt, and the
acquisition of treasury stock. The Company and First Mid Bank were in
compliance with the existing covenants at June 30, 2003.

Management monitors its expected liquidity requirements carefully,
focusing primarily on cash flows from:

< lending activities, including loan commitments, letters of credit and
mortgage prepayment assumptions;

< deposit activities, including seasonal demand of private and public
funds;

< investing activities, including prepayments of mortgage-backed
securities and call provisions on U.S. government treasuries and
agency securities; and

< operating activities, including scheduled debt repayments and
dividends to stockholders.

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2003, net cash of $7.5 million
was provided from operating activities while investing activities used net cash
of $31.5 million and financing activities used net cash of $18.2 million. Thus,
cash and cash equivalents decreased by $42.2 million since year-end 2002.
Generally, during 2003, decreases in deposits and customer repurchase agreements
due to seasonal outflow and funds used to fund new loans reduced cash balances.


Management believes that it has adequate sources of liquidity to meet
its contractual obligations as well as to provide for contingencies that might
reasonably be expected to occur.

First Mid enters into financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk
in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers.
These financial instruments include lines of credit, letters of credit and other
commitments to extend credit. Each of these instruments involves, to varying
degrees, elements of credit, and interest rate and liquidity risk in excess of
the amounts recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company uses the
same credit policies and requires similar collateral in approving lines of
credit and commitments and issuing letters of credit as it does in making loans.
The exposure to credit losses on financial instruments is represented by the
contractual amount of these instruments. However, the Company does not
anticipate any losses from these instruments.

The off-balance sheet financial instruments whose contract amounts
represent credit risk at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 were as follows (in
thousands):


June 30, December 31,
2003 2002
-------------- --------------
Unused commitments including lines of credit:
Commercial real estate $ 38,670 $31,506
Commercial operating 31,488 31,160
Home equity 11,711 9,509
Other 14,589 13,753
-------------- --------------
Total $ 96,458 $85,928
============== ==============
Standby letters of credit $2,380 $997
============== ==============


Commitments to originate credit represent approved commercial,
residential real estate and home equity loans that generally are expected to be
funded within ninety days. Lines of credit are agreements by which the Company
agrees to provide a borrowing accommodation up to a stated amount as long as
there is no violation of any condition established in the loan agreement. Both
commitments to originate credit and lines of credit generally have fixed
expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee.
Since many of the lines and some commitments are expected to expire without
being drawn upon, the total amounts do not necessarily represent future cash
requirements.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the
Company to guarantee the financial performance of customers to third parties.
Standby letters of credit are primarily issued to facilitate trade or support
borrowing arrangements and generally expire in one year or less. The credit risk
involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved
in extending credit facilities to customers. The maximum amount of credit that
would be extended under letters of credit is equal to the total off-balance
sheet contract amount of such instrument.





ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There has been no material change in the market risk faced by the
Company since December 31, 2002. For information regarding the Company's market
risk, refer to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2002.


ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company's Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the
Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules
13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the "Exchange Act")) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based
on such evaluation, such officers have concluded that, as of the end of the
period covered by this report, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures
are effective in bringing to their attention on a timely basis material
information relating to the Company (including its consolidated subsidiaries)
required to be included in the Company's periodic filings under the Exchange
Act.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There have been
no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting identified
in connection with the evaluation required by Rules 13a-15(d) or 15d-15(d) of
the Exchange Act that occurred during the quarter covered by this report that
have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the
Company's internal control over financial reporting.









PART II
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Since First Mid Bank acts as a depository of funds, it is named from
time to time as a defendant in lawsuits (such as garnishment proceedings)
involving claims as to the ownership of funds in particular accounts. Management
believes that all such litigation as well as other pending legal proceedings in
which the Company is involved constitute ordinary, routine litigation incidental
to the business of the Company and that such litigation will not materially
adversely affect the Company's consolidated financial condition.

ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

None.

ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

None.

ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

elected to serve as Class II directors with terms expiring in 2006. Continuing

There were 3,162,383 issued and outstanding shares of common stock at the
time of the Annual Meeting. The voting at the meeting, on the matter listed
above, was as follows:
