NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include ChoiceOne Financial Services, Inc. (the "Registrant") and its direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, ChoiceOne Bank (the "Bank"), ChoiceOne Mortgage Company of Michigan (the "Mortgage Company"), and ChoiceOne Insurance Agencies, Inc. (the "Insurance Agency").

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information, prevailing practices within the banking industry and the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments ordinary in nature which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, the Consolidated Statements of Income for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2004 and June 30, 2003, the Consolidated Statements of Changes in Shareholders' Equity for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2004 and June 30, 2003, and the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2004 and June 30, 2003. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2004.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.

Stock Based Compensation
Employee compensation expense under the Registrant's stock option plan is reported if options are granted below market price at the grant date. Pro forma disclosures of net income and earnings per share are shown using the fair value method to measure expense for options granted using an option pricing model to estimate the fair value.

The following pro forma information presents net income and earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 had the fair value method been used to measure compensation expense for stock option plans. No compensation expense was recognized for stock options in 2004 and 2003.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion is designed to provide a review of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of ChoiceOne Financial Services, Inc. (the "Registrant" or "ChoiceOne") and its direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, ChoiceOne Bank (the "Bank"), ChoiceOne Insurance Agencies, Inc. (the "Insurance Agency") and ChoiceOne Mortgage Company of Michigan (the "Mortgage Company"). This discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related footnotes.


FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This discussion and other sections of this report contain forward-looking statements that are based on management's beliefs, assumptions, current expectations, estimates, and projections about the financial services industry, the economy, and about the Registrant itself. Words such as "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "expects," "forecasts," "intends," "is likely," "plans," "predicts," "projects," and variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties, and assumptions ("risk factors") that are difficult to predict with regard to timing, extent, likelihood, and degree of occurrence. Therefore, actual results and outcomes may materially differ from what may be expressed, implied or forecasted in such forward-looking statements. Furthermore, the Registrant undertakes no obligation to update, amend, or clarify forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

Risk factors include, but are not limited to, changes in interest rates and interest rate relationships; demand for products and services; the degree of competition by traditional and non-traditional competitors; changes in banking laws and regulations; changes in tax laws; changes in prices, levies, and assessments; the impact of technological advances; governmental and regulatory policy changes; the outcomes of pending and future litigation and contingencies; trends in customer behavior as well as their ability to repay loans; and changes in the national and local economies. In addition, events relating to the current war on terrorism including the military action in Iraq have created significant global economic and political uncertainties that may have material and adverse effects on financial markets, the economy, and demand for financial services and products. These are representative of the risk factors that could cause a difference between an ultimate actual outcome and a preceding forward-looking statement.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Summary
Net income decreased $101,000 or 20% in the second quarter of 2004 compared to the same period in 2003. Net income for the first six months of 2004 decreased $95,000, or 9% from the same period in the prior year. The decrease in net income was primarily due to lower net interest income and lower noninterest income, offset by lower noninterest expense.

Net interest income dropped in the first six months of 2004 primarily due to interest earning assets repricing downward much more than interest bearing deposits and borrowings. While earning assets grew 6%, the low rate environment continued to compress asset yields while rates on deposits and borrowings remained flat since the end of the first quarter. A lower provision to the allowance for loan losses was driven by a decrease in nonperforming loans. Slower mortgage activity greatly reduced the gains received on sales of loans. Noninterest expense dropped in 2004 primarily due to lower personnel and occupancy costs.

Return on average assets was 0.84% for the first six months of 2004, compared to 0.98% for the same period in 2003. Return on average shareholders' equity was 8.88% for the first half of 2004, compared to 10.23% for the comparable period of 2003.




10


Dividends
Cash dividends of $267,000, or $0.17 per share were declared in the second quarter of 2004, which is consistent with the amount per share declared in the second quarter of 2003. The cash dividends paid in the first six months of 2004 were $532,000 or $0.34 per share, which is the same per share amount paid in 2003. The cash dividend payout percentage was 58% for the first six months of 2004, compared to 52% in the same period a year ago.

Interest Income and Expense
Tables 1 and 2 on the following pages provide information regarding interest income and expense for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Table 1 documents average balances and interest income and expense, as well as the average rates earned or paid on assets and liabilities. Table 2 documents the effect on interest income and expense of changes in volume (average balance) and interest rates. These tables are referred to in the discussion of interest income, interest expense and net interest income below.

The volume variance is computed as the change in volume (average balance) multiplied by the previous year's interest rate. The rate variance is computed as the change in interest rate multiplied by the previous year's volume (average balance). The change in interest due to both volume and rate has been allocated to the volume and rate changes in proportion to the relationship of the absolute dollar amounts of the change in each.

Interest on nontaxable investment securities and loans has been adjusted to a fully tax-equivalent basis using an incremental tax rate of 34% for the periods presented.

Net Interest Income
As shown in Tables 1 and 2, year-to-date tax equivalent net interest income dropped $149,000 in 2004 compared to the same period in 2003. This is primarily because the low rate environment has negatively impacted loans and securities that have repriced. Mitigating this is a lower interest expense on deposits and borrowings. However, the lower interest expense on deposits and other funding sources has not been sufficient to overcome the reduction in income earned on interest-earning assets. The growth in loans and securities has offset some of the loss in interest income due to lower rates.

The average balance of loans decreased $2.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2004 compared to 2003. In addition, refinancing and repricing of existing loans has also caused interest income on loans to fall $837,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004, compared to the same period a year ago. The average balance of investment securities grew $14.5 million, which offset slightly lower yields thereby causing interest income to increase $223,000 over 2003.

Lower rates paid on time deposits and an $11.7 million decrease in average time deposit balances reduced interest expense $323,000 in the first six months of 2004 versus 2003. Lower rates paid on advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank more than offset a $9.0 million increase in the average balance causing interest expense to drop $220,000 in the first six months of 2004. An $11.4 million increase in the average balance of interest-bearing demand deposits increased interest expense by $78,000 as rates paid on demand deposits have remained static from those of a year ago.



12


Net interest income spread was 3.48% (shown in Table 1) for the first six months of 2004, compared to 3.80% for the first six months of 2003. This is a decrease from the net interest income spread of 3.59% for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 3.71% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2003. The average yield received on interest-earning assets was down 101 basis points to 5.67% at June 30, 2004, and the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities was down 69 basis points to 2.19% at June 30, 2004.

Net interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2004 was $108,000 lower than net interest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 driven by significantly lower rates on loans and securities. The lower rates paid on deposits and borrowings were insufficient to counter the reduction in interest income for the quarter.

Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses was $85,000 lower in the first six months of 2004 than the same period of 2003. This was driven by an improvement of overall credit quality within the loan portfolio. Nonperforming loans have decreased $1,508,000 or 58% since June 30, 2003. The allowance for loan losses has decreased $282,000 since the end of 2003 primarily due to charge-offs exceeding recoveries and the current year's provision. The allowance was 1.00% of total loans as of June 30, 2004, compared to 1.05% at March 31, 2004, and 1.21% at December 31, 2003. Charge-offs and recoveries of charged-off loans for the six months ended June 30 were as follows:

The increase in net charge-offs from 2003 to 2004 was primarily attributable to more commercial charge-offs, offset by lower consumer and mortgage net charge-offs. Within the commercial charge-offs in 2004 were five borrowers with loans totaling $386,000. Of these five borrowers, 71% or $275,000 of the allowance for loan losses had been specifically allocated to their respective loans at the end of 2003 due to specific factors existing at year-end. Management believes that these significant commercial loan charge-offs do not signal a trend since other qualitative measures indicate general credit improvement. The net recovery position within consumer loans indicates improvement in the quality of the Bank's retail lending practices. As charge-offs, changes in the level of nonperforming loans, and changes within the composition of the loan portfolio occur throughout 2004, the provision and allowance for loan losses will be reviewed by the Bank's management and adjusted as necessary.

Noninterest Income
Total noninterest income decreased $141,000 or 19% in the second quarter and $256,000 or 17% in the first six months of 2004 compared to the same periods in the prior year. Gains on sales of loans were down for the quarter and year-to-date due to reduced refinancing activity at the Mortgage Company. Rising long term interest rates in the past two quarters of 2004 has stalled borrower demand for refinancing existing mortgage loans. Offsetting this decrease was an increase in net mortgage servicing fees during 2004. Servicing fee income in 2003 was reduced by accelerated amortization and impairment of mortgage servicing rights driven by the heavy mortgage refinancing activity occurring. A total of $4.1 million of securities were sold during the first and second quarters of 2004 for a non-recurring portfolio gain of $35,000. The Registrant did not sell any securities in the six months ended June 30, 2003. Losses incurred on the sale of foreclosed assets negatively impacted noninterest income by $22,000 for the quarter and $5,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004.

Noninterest Expense
Total noninterest expense decreased $139,000 or 7% in the second quarter of 2004 and $242,000 or 6% in the first six months of 2004 compared to 2003. Salaries and benefits were lower in 2004 due to fewer mortgage commissions paid, reductions in staff and lower incentive bonuses offset by higher employee health care costs. Occupancy expense was also lower due to the closure of the Bank's Sparta Great Day office as well as the sale of the Grand Rapids division of the Insurance Agency in 2003. Other noninterest expense increased $30,000 for the quarter and $37,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004 primarily due to the write-off a $75,000 cash item. The cash item was an altered foreign check that was disbursed before the Bank was notified of the fraudulent item. Management is pursuing legal action against the depositor and has instituted specific internal controls surrounding the collection of both foreign and domestic checks.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Securities
The securities portfolio increased $2.6 million from December 31, 2003 to June 30, 2004. A mix of agency bonds, mortgage-backed securities, and municipal bonds were purchased from the proceeds received from the sale of securities and the recent growth in deposit accounts. Approximately $4.0 million of securities were sold in the first two quarters of 2004 to harvest gains in the portfolio. In the second quarter of 2004, long term interest rates rose dramatically, which caused the securities portfolio to have an unrealized loss of $211,000 at June 30, 2004 versus an unrealized gain of $782,000 at December 31, 2003.

The Bank's Investment Committee continues to monitor the portfolio and purchase or sell securities when deemed prudent. Certain securities are also sold under agreements to repurchase and management plans to continue this practice as a low-cost source of funding. Certain securities are also pledged as collateral to the Federal Home Loan Bank for current and potential borrowings. Securities also serve as a source of liquidity for funding loan demand.

Loans
The loan portfolio (excluding loans held for sale) grew $6.3 million during the first six months of 2004. Commercial, consumer and mortgage loans increased $3.0 million, $1.7 million and $1.6 million, respectively. Commercial loans increased due to rising demand from local businesses and general improvement in the regional and national economy. Consumer loans increased largely due to additional volume generated by a home equity loan promotion. The Bank also introduced a new interest-only home equity line of credit product in 2004. Mortgage loans have increased as a result of more borrowers desiring adjustable rate mortgages versus fixed rate mortgages. Management has opted to sell all conforming fixed and variable rate mortgages to the secondary market. Nonconforming mortgage loans are not considered saleable to the secondary market and must be retained in the Mortgage Company's portfolio.

Information regarding impaired loans can be found in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in this report. In addition to its review of the loan portfolio for impaired loans, management also monitors the various nonperforming loans. Nonperforming loans are comprised of: (1) loans accounted for on a nonaccrual basis; (2) loans, not included in nonaccrual loans, which are contractually past due 90 days or more as to interest or principal payments; and (3) loans, not included in nonaccrual or loans past due 90 days or more, which are considered troubled debt restructurings.

The balances of these nonperforming loans were as follows:

               Total

$   2,000,000


 

The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of nonperforming loans was 155% at June 30, 2004 compared to 99% at December 31, 2003. Nonaccrual loans are comprised of $0.8 million of commercial loans, $0.1 million of residential mortgages, and $0.1 million of consumer loans. Since December 31, 2003, nonaccrual loans have decreased due to charge-offs, payoffs, transfers to other real estate and delinquent loans being brought current. Impaired loans are evaluated on an individual basis and specific allocations are made for these loans when collateral is considered insufficient to support the outstanding principal balances of these loans. Management further believes that the general allocation within the allowance for loan losses is sufficient based on the Bank's loan grading system, past due trends and historical charge-off percentages.

Management also maintains a list of loans that are not classified as nonperforming loans but where some concern exists as to the borrowers' abilities to comply with the original loan terms. The total balance of these loans was $8,003,000 at June 30, 2004 compared to $8,841,000 as of December 31, 2003.

Deposits and Other Funding Sources
Total deposits have increased approximately $10.2 million since December 31, 2003. Demand deposits grew $5.5 million, savings deposits grew $0.3 million and time deposits rose $4.4 million in the six months since year-end 2003. The Bank's high-yielding Investors Money Market account has continued to grow since a premium rate was introduced in late 2002 and relative uncertainty continues to plague the stock market. Noninterest-bearing demand deposit balances have increased approximately $2 million due to growing balances with commercial customers. Brokered time deposits have increased $6.1 million in 2004 to fund recent growth in commercial and consumer loans. Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank have increased $3.5 million in 2004 to reduce the amount of federal funds purchased at the end of 2003. Management has been replacing maturing advances with new advances to maintain its current funding structure.

Shareholders' Equity
Total shareholders' equity decreased approximately $0.2 million in the first six months of 2004. The change resulted from current year income and proceeds from the sale of the Registrant's stock, offset by cash dividends paid to shareholders, shares repurchased, and changes in other comprehensive income. Accumulated other comprehensive income dropped $0.7 million due to a large change in the unrealized loss on the market value of the Registrant's securities portfolio. Total shareholders' equity as a percentage of assets was 9.02% as of June 30, 2004 compared to 9.55% as of December 31, 2003. The decrease in this ratio resulted from the decrease in other comprehensive income and growth in total assets since year-end 2003. Based on risk-based capital guidelines established by the Bank's regulators, the Registrant's risk-based capital was categorized as "well capitalized" at June 30, 2004.

Capital Resources
The Registrant's management does not currently have any plans that will utilize significant amounts of the Registrant's capital. Management believes that the current level of capital is adequate to take advantage of potential opportunities that may arise for the Registrant or the Bank.

Liquidity and Rate Sensitivity
Management believes that the current level of liquidity is sufficient to meet the Bank's normal operating needs. This belief is based upon the availability of deposit growth from both the local and national markets, maturities of securities, normal loan repayments, income retention, federal funds which can be purchased from correspondent banks, and advances available from the Federal Home Loan Bank. The Bank also has a secured line of credit available from the Federal Reserve Bank. The Bank does not anticipate that the secured line of credit will be used for normal operating needs, but could be used for liquidity purposes in special circumstances.

The Bank's sensitivity to changes in interest rates is monitored by the Asset & Liability Management Committee (the "Committee"). The Committee uses a simulation model to subject rate-sensitive assets and liabilities to interest rate shocks. Assets and liabilities are subject to an immediate rate shock and the effect on net income and shareholders' equity is measured. The rate shock computation as of June 30, 2004 caused net income to increase 3% if rates increased 200 basis points and decrease 12% if rates decreased 100 basis points. The market value of shareholders' equity will decrease 14% if rates rose 200 basis points and increase 5% if rates dropped 100 basis points. The Committee continues to monitor the effect of changes in interest rates upon the Registrant's financial condition.


Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

The information concerning quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk contained under the caption "Liquidity and Interest Rate Risk" on pages 32 and 33 of the Registrant's Annual Report to Shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2003 is here incorporated by reference. Such Annual Report was previously filed as Exhibit 13 to the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.

The Registrant's management does not believe that there has been a material change in the nature or categories of the Registrant's primary market risk exposures, or the particular markets that present the primary risk of loss to the Registrant. As of the date of this report, the Registrant's management does not know of or expect there to be any material change in the general nature of its primary market risk exposure in the near term. The methods by which the Registrant manages its primary market risk exposures, as described in the sections of its Annual Report to Shareholders incorporated by reference in response to this item, have not changed materially since the end of 2003. As of the date of this report, the Registrant's management does not expect to make material changes in those


15


methods in the near term. The Registrant may change those methods in the future to adapt to changes in circumstances or to implement new techniques

The Registrant's market risk exposure is mainly comprised of its vulnerability to interest rate risk. Prevailing interest rates and interest rate relationships are primarily determined by market factors that are beyond the Registrant's control. All information provided in response to this item consists of forward-looking statements. Reference is made to the section captioned "Forward-Looking Statements" in Item 2 of this report for a discussion of the limitations on the Registrant's responsibility for such statements. In this discussion, "near term" means a period of one year following the date of the most recent balance sheet contained in this report.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures.

An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Registrant's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Registrant's disclosure controls and procedures. Based on and as of the time of that evaluation, the Registrant's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and principal financial officer, concluded that the Registrant's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report. There was no change in the Registrant's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2004 that has materially affected, or that is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Registrant's internal control over financial reporting.
