STATE FINANCIAL SERVICES CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2003
NOTE A--BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of State Financial Services Corporation (the "Company" or "State") and
its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have
been eliminated. The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally
included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles for complete financial statements have been condensed or
omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management,
all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary
for a fair presentation have been included. Interim operating results are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year. For
further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and
footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2002.
NOTE B--ACCOUNTING CHANGES
FIN No. 46 - Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities
In January 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 46 (FIN No. 46),
Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities. The objective of this
interpretation is to provide guidance on how to identify a variable interest
entity (VIE) and determine when the assets, liabilities, noncontrolling
interest, and results of operations of a VIE need to be included in a company's
consolidated financial statements. Because the Company does not have interest in
any VIEs, the Company does not expect the adoption of FIN No. 46 to have a
material impact on its results of operations, financial position, or liquidity.
Accounting For Stock-Based Compensation
In December 2002, the FASB issued FASB Statement No.148, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure" (FAS No. 148), which
provides guidance on how to transition from the intrinsic value method of
accounting for stock-based employee compensation, APB 25, under which no
compensation expense is recorded when the exercise price of the Company's
employee stock options equals the market price of the underlying stock on the
date of grant to FAS No. 123's, fair value method of accounting, if a company so
elects. FAS No. 148 also amends the disclosure provisions of FAS No. 123 and APB
Opinion No. 25 to require disclosure in the summary of significant accounting
policies of the effects of an entity's accounting policy with respect to
stock-based employee compensation on reported net income and earnings per share
in annual and interim financial statements. While FAS No. 148 does not amend FAS
No. 123 to require companies to account for employee stock options using the
fair value method, the disclosure provisions of FAS No. 148 are applicable to
all companies with stock-based employee compensation, regardless of whether they
account for that compensation using the fair value method of FAS No. 123 or the
intrinsic value method of APB 25. Although the recognition provisions of FAS No.
148 are not applicable to the Company at this time as it continues to account
for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method, the Company has
provided the required disclosures in Note F.
NOTE C--EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the
weighted-average common shares outstanding during the period less unearned ESOP
shares. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the
weighted-average common shares outstanding
6
during the period less unallocated ESOP shares plus the assumed conversion of
all potentially dilutive securities. The denominators for the earnings per share
amounts are as follows:
For the three months ended
March 31, March 31,
2003 2002
------------------------------------
Basic:
Weighted-average number of
shares outstanding 6,949,965 7,788,191
Less: weighted-average number of
unearned ESOP shares (322,599) (349,184)
------------------------------------
Denominator for basic earnings per share 6,627,366 7,439,007
====================================
Fully diluted:

Denominator for fully diluted earnings per share 6,776,833 7,482,527
====================================
NOTE D--COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
Comprehensive income is the total of reported net income and all other
revenues, expenses, gains and losses that under generally accepted accounting
principles are not included in reported net income but are instead reflected
directly in shareholders' equity.
For the three months ended
March 31, March 31,

===================================
NOTE E--STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM
On March 12, 2001, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the
repurchase of approximately 400 thousand shares of the Company's Common Stock
(the "2001 Repurchase Program"). As of March 31, 2003 the Company has
repurchased 349 thousand shares at an average price of $13.08.
In December 2002, the Company completed its Dutch Auction tender offer,
purchasing and retiring 716 thousand shares of the Company's Common Stock at
$16.50 per share.
7
NOTE F--SUBSEQUENT EVENT
On April 28, 2003, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the
repurchase of up to 5%, or approximately 348 thousand shares, of the Company's
Common Stock (the "2003 Repurchase Program").
NOTE G--STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company follows Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 under which
no compensation expense is recorded when the exercise price of the Company's
employee stock options equals the market price of the underlying stock on the
date of grant. The Company's pro forma information regarding net income and net
income per share has been determined as if these options had been accounted for
since January 1, 1995, in accordance with the fair value method of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation".
The Black-Scholes option valuation model is commonly used in estimating the
fair value of traded options which have no vesting restrictions and are fully
transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly
subjective assumptions, including the expected stock price volatility. Since the
Company's employee stock options have characteristics significantly different
from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input
assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimates, in management's
opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single
measure of the fair value of its employee stock options.
In determining compensation expense in accordance with SFAS No. 123, the
fair value for these options was estimated at the date of grant using the
Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average
assumptions for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and March 31, 2002.
Three months ended March 31,
-----------------------------------------

Risk-free interest rate 3.33% 3.33%
Expected dividend yield 2.6% 3.0%
Expected volatility factor 26.04% 15.77%
For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the
options is amortized to expense over the options' vesting period, which is
generally six months. The Company's pro forma information is as follows:

Diluted $ 0.42 $ 0.35
Pro forma net income per common share:

Diluted $ 0.42 $ 0.34
The pro forma disclosures only include the effect of options granted
subsequent to January 1, 1995. Accordingly, the effects of applying the SFAS No.
123 pro forma disclosures to future periods may not be indicative of future
effects.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
Application of Critical Accounting Policies
The Company's consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and follow
general practices within the banking industry. Application of these principles
requires management to make estimates, assumptions, and judgments that affect
the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. These
estimates, assumptions, and judgments are based on information available as of
the date of the financial statements. Future changes in information may affect
these estimates, assumptions, and judgments, which, in turn, may affect amounts
reported in the consolidated financial statements.
All significant accounting policies are presented in Note 1 to the
consolidated financial statements in the Company's 2002 Annual Report on Form
10-K. These policies, along with the disclosures presented in the other
financial statement notes and in this discussion, provide information on how
significant assets and liabilities are valued in the consolidated financial
statements and how those values are determined.
Management has determined that its accounting policies with respect to the
allowance for loan losses is the accounting area requiring subjective or complex
judgments that is most important to the Company's financial position and results
of operations, and therefore, is its only critical accounting policy. The
allowance for loan losses represents management's estimate of probable credit
losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Determining the amount of the allowance
for loan losses is considered a critical accounting estimate because it requires
significant judgment and the use of estimates related to the amount and timing
of expected future cash flows on impaired loans, estimated losses on pools of
homogeneous loans based on historical loss experience, and consideration of
current economic trends and conditions, all of which may be susceptible to
significant change. The loan portfolio also represents the largest asset type on
the consolidated statement of condition. Note 1 to the consolidated financial
statements in the Company's 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K describes the
methodology used to determine the allowance for loan losses. In addition, a
discussion of the factors driving changes in the amount of the allowance for
loan losses is included in the Provision for Loan Losses section of Management's
discussion.
Changes in Financial Condition
At March 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002, total assets were $1.3 billion.
During the first three months of 2003, significant uses of funds consisted of a
$11.6 million decrease in total deposits, $15.0 million in repayment of Federal
Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") borrowings, $10.0 million in repayment of federal funds
purchased, $5.3 million net decrease in notes payable, $21.5 million increase in
loans, $0.9 million in payment of cash dividends, and $0.5 million in purchases
of premises and equipment. Funding sources come from a $4.8 million increase in
net cash provided by operating activities, $34.8 million net decrease in
investment securities, and $17.3 million increase in securities sold under
agreement to repurchase.
Asset Quality
At March 31, 2003, non-performing assets were $14.0 million, an increase of
$1.0 million from December 31, 2002 due primarily to an increase of $1.1 million
in non-accrual loans offset by a decrease of $106 thousand in other real estate
owned. Total non-performing assets as a percentage of total assets were 1.08% at
March 31, 2003 and 0.99% at December 31, 2002. As a percentage of total loans
outstanding, the level of non-performing loans was 1.78% at March 31, 2003
compared to 1.69% at December 31, 2002. This percentage increase was due to the
increase in non-performing loans resulting from the placement of two commercial
loans, secured by real estate, on non-accrual status.
9
When, in the opinion of management, serious doubt exists as to the
collectibility of a loan, the loan is placed on non-accrual status. In all cases
however, when a loan reaches 90 days delinquent on the payment of principal or
interest the loan is placed on non-accrual status. At the time a loan is
classified as non-accrual, interest credited to income in the current year is
reversed and interest income accrued in the prior year is charged to the
allowance for loan losses. The following table summarizes non-performing assets
on the dates indicated (dollars in thousands).

Allowance for Loan Losses and Net Charge-offs
Management maintains the allowance for loan losses (the "Allowance") at a
level considered adequate to provide for probable loan losses. The Allowance is
increased by provisions charged to earnings and is reduced by charge-offs, net
of recoveries. At March 31, 2003, the Allowance was $9.3 million, an increase of
$501 thousand from the balance at December 31, 2002. The Allowance was increased
partially due to the increase in both the amount and the percentage of
commercial loans to total loans, as well as the continued weakness in the
economy.
As a percentage of total loans outstanding, the Allowance was 1.22% at
March 31, 2003 compared to 1.18% at December 31, 2002. The determination of
Allowance adequacy is based upon on-going evaluations of the Company's loan
portfolio conducted by the Internal Loan Review function of its banking
subsidiary, State Financial Bank, N.A. (the "Bank") and reviewed by management.
These evaluations consider a variety of factors, including, but not limited to,
general economic conditions, loan portfolio size and composition, previous loss
experience, the borrowers' financial condition, collateral adequacy, and the
level of non-performing loans. Based upon its analyses, management considers the
Allowance adequate to recognize the risk inherent in the loan portfolio at March
31, 2003.

Results of Operations-Comparison of the Three-Month Periods Ended March 31, 2003
and March 31, 2002
General
For the quarter ended March 31, 2003, the Company reported a net income of
$2.9 million and net income per share on a fully diluted basis of $0.42,
compared to net income of $2.6 million and net income per share on a fully
diluted basis of $0.35 reported for the quarter ended March 31, 2002. The
increase in earnings per share was mainly due to decreased shares issued as a
result of the Dutch Auction tender offer and stock repurchase activity in 2002.

1 For the purposes of these computations, non-accrual loans are included in the
daily average loan amounts outstanding.
2 Interest earned on loans includes loan fees (which are not material in amount)
and interest income that has been received from borrowers whose loans were
removed from non-accrual during the period indicated.
3 Taxable-equivalent adjustments are made in calculating interest income and
yields using a 35% rate for all years presented. The related adjustment were
$348 thousand and $391 thousand for March 31, 2003 and March 31, 2002,
respectively. The Company believes this disclosure of tax-exempt interest is
more meaningful to the reader because these results are more comparable to other
banks due to the impact that tax-exempt holdings have on net interest margin.
4 Annualized.
12
For the quarter ended March 31, 2003, the Company reported
taxable-equivalent net interest income of $11.4 million, a decrease of $62
thousand, or 0.5%, from the $11.4 million reported for the quarter ended March
31, 2002. This modest decrease reflects the Company's interest rate risk
management policy, which is designed to minimize the impact on interest rate
changes on net interest income. The taxable-equivalent yield on interest-earning
assets (net interest margin) decreased to 4.00% in the first quarter of 2003
from 4.33% in the first quarter of 2002.
The Company's taxable-equivalent total interest income decreased $905
thousand for the quarter ended March 31, 2003 compared to the same period of
2002 due to the lower rate environment. Average loans outstanding increased
$14.4 million, or 2.0%, in the first quarter of 2003 over the first quarter of
2002. For the quarter ended March 31, 2003, the taxable-equivalent yield on
interest-earning assets was 5.79% compared to 6.59% for the quarter ended March
31, 2002. The first quarter 2003 loan yield was 6.40% compared to 7.29% in the
first quarter of 2002. The Company also experienced declines in the yields
earned on its investment securities. For the quarter ended March 31, 2003, the
yield earned on taxable investment securities decreased to 4.54% from 5.28% for
the quarter ended March 31, 2002. The yields earned on tax-exempt investment
securities decreased to 5.93% for the quarter ended March 31, 2003 from 6.79%
for the quarter ended March 31, 2002.
The Company's funding costs were also impacted by the lower interest rate
environment prevalent over the preceding twelve months. The cost of
interest-bearing liabilities decreased to 2.06% for the first quarter of 2003
from 2.62% for the first quarter of 2002. The Company uses wholesale funding
sources, such as the Federal Home Loan Bank, to balance the timing differences
between its various business funding sources and to support loan origination. In
the first quarter of 2003, notes payable, FHLB borrowings, federal funds
purchased, and securities sold under agreements to repurchase comprised 23.8% of
the Company's interest-bearing liabilities compared to 14.4% in the first
quarter 2002 due to loan growth exceeding deposit growth in the period.
Provision for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses was $600 thousand in the first quarter of
2003 compared to $450 thousand in the first quarter of 2002. The increase
reflects loan growth and management's assessment of asset quality and risk
inherent in the loan portfolio.
Other Income
Total other income increased $827 thousand in the first quarter of 2003
over the first quarter of 2002. The increase was the result of increases in
service charges on deposit accounts, gains on sale of residential mortgage
loans, and other income. These increases were offset by decreases in "ATM" and
merchant services, security commissions and management fees, and investment
securities gains. Service charges on deposit accounts increased $62 thousand due
to increased fees on business accounts. Gains on sale of residential mortgage
loans increased $659 thousand due to increased refinancing activity on
residential mortgages. Other income increased $274 thousand mainly due to income
earned on bank owned life insurance. ATM and merchant services decreased $10
thousand due to decreased volume as a result of the removal of several ATM
machines in 2002. Security commission and management fees decreased $8 thousand,
and investment security gains decreased $149 thousand.
Other Expenses
Other expenses increased $465 thousand in the first quarter of 2003 over
the first quarter of 2002. The increase was due to increases in personnel costs
and advertising. These increases were offset by decreases in net occupancy and
equipment expense, data processing, legal and professional fees, ATM and
merchant services, and other expense. Personnel costs increased $787 thousand
due to increased sale commissions as a result of the increased volume of
refinancing activity on residential mortgages and increased salaries due to
growth. Advertising increased $76 thousand as
13
the Company executed a local branding initiative. Legal and professional fees
decreased $254 thousand due to lower legal fee expense on several long-term
legal matters that are nearing resolution. Net occupancy decreased $8 thousand,
data processing decreased $26 thousand, ATM and merchant services decreased $15
thousand, and other expense decreased $95 thousand.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2003 was $1.1 million
and was $1.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2002. The effective tax
rate was 28.0% for the first quarter of 2003 compared to an effective rate of
30.6% for the first quarter of 2002.
Liquidity
The primary functions of asset/liability management are to assure adequate
liquidity and maintain an appropriate balance between interest-earning assets
and interest-bearing liabilities. Liquidity management involves the ability to
meet the cash flow requirements of depositors and borrowers. Liquid assets
(including cash deposits with banks, short-term investments, interest-earning
deposits, and federal funds sold) are maintained primarily to meet customers'
current needs. The Company had liquid assets of $59.7 million and $67.5 million
at March 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively.
Capital Resources
There are certain regulatory requirements that affect the Company's level
of capital. The following table sets forth these requirements and the Company's
capital levels and ratios at March 31, 2003:
Regulatory Regulatory
Minimum Well-capitalized
Actual Requirement Requirement
------ ----------- ----------------
(dollars in thousands)
Amount Percent Amount Percent Amount Percent
------ ------- ------ ------- ------ -------
Tier 1 leverage $87,795 7.0% $50,001 4.0% $62,502 5.0%
Tier 1 risk-based capital $87,795 9.6% $36,715 4.0% $55,072 6.0%
Risk-based capital $97,101 10.6% $73,430 8.0% $91,787 10.0%
The Company is pursuing a policy of continued asset growth, which requires
the maintenance of appropriate ratios of capital to assets. The existing capital
levels allow for additional asset growth without further capital injection. It
is the Company's plan to maintain its capital position at or in excess of the
"well-capitalized" definition. The Company seeks to obtain additional capital
growth through earnings retention and a consistent dividend policy.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Refer to the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2002 for a complete discussion of the Company's market risk. There
have been no material changes to the market risk information included in the
Company's 2002 annual report on Form 10-K.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Within the 90-day period prior to the filing of this report, an evaluation
was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the
Company's
14
management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Corporation's
disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c)
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based upon that evaluation, the
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the design
and operation of these disclosure controls and procedures were effective. No
significant changes were made in the Company's internal controls or in other
factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of
their evaluation.
Forward Looking Statements
The Company intends certain matters discussed in this Report to be
"forward-looking statements" intended to qualify for the safe harbor from
liability established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
These forward-looking statements can generally be identified as such because the
statements will include words such as "believes," "anticipates," "expects," or
words of similar meaning. Similarly, statements that describe future plans,
objectives, outlooks, targets or goals are also forward-looking statements. Such
forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that
could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated as of the
date of this Report. Factors that could cause such a variance include, but are
not limited to, adequacy of the Company's loan loss reserve, changes in interest
rates, local market competition, customer loan and deposit preferences,
governmental regulations, and other general economic conditions. Shareholders,
potential investors, and other readers are urged to consider these factors in
evaluating the forward-looking statements and cautioned not to place undue
reliance on such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements
included in this Report are only made of the date of this Report, and the
Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update such forward-looking
statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances.
Part II. Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
From time to time, the Company and the Bank, are party to legal proceedings
arising out of their general lending activities and other operations. In
February 2002, an action was filed against SFSC in the Circuit Court in Rock
County, Wisconsin. The plaintiffs in the litigation allege that in April 2001 an
employee of SFSC wrongfully issued and then SFSC refused to honor cashier's
checks issued on behalf of a customer of the Bank. The allegations arise out of
an apparent scheme perpetrated by a mutual customer of one of the plaintiffs, a
credit union, and SFSC. The plaintiffs seek recovery of $1.5 million plus fees
and expenses. The Company has established a reserve to cover anticipated costs
to cover the pending litigation, but believes the action is without merit and
intends to defend its position vigorously in the litigation. The resolution of
this matter is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's
financial condition or results of operations.
