NOTE TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)



NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


The accompanying consolidated financial statements include CSB Bancorp, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, The Commercial & Savings Bank (together referred to as “the Company”).  All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.


The consolidated financial statements have been prepared without audit.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position at September 30, 2002, and the results of operations and changes in cash flows for the periods presented have been made.


Certain information and footnote disclosures typically included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted.  The Annual Report for the Company for the year ended December 31, 2001, contains consolidated financial statements and related footnote disclosures which should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements.  The results of operations for the period ended September 30, 2002, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year or any future interim period.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


The following discussion focuses on the consolidated financial condition of CSB Bancorp, Inc.  and it’s wholly-owned subsidiary, The Commercial & Savings Bank ("the Bank"), collectively referred to as “the Company”, at September 30, 2002, compared to December 31, 2001, and the consolidated results of operations for the nine month and quarterly periods ending September 30, 2002 compared to the same periods in 2001.  The purpose of this discussion is to provide the reader with a more thorough understanding of the consolidated financial statements.  This discussion should be read in conjunction with the interim consolidated financial statements and related footnote.


FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS


Certain statements contained in this report that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements that are subject to certain risks and uncertainties.  When used herein, the terms “anticipates”, “plans”, “expects”, “believes”, and similar expressions as they relate to the Company or its management are intended to identify such forward-looking statements.  The Company’s actual results, performance or achievements may materially differ from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements.  Risks and uncertainties that could cause or contribute to such material differences include, but are not limited to, general economic conditions, interest rate environment, competitive conditions in the financial services industry, changes in law, governmental policies and regulations, and rapidly changing t echnology affecting financial services.


The Company does not undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligation, to publicly revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.



FINANCIAL CONDITION


Total assets were $293.9 million at September 30, 2002, compared to $306.3 million at December 31, 2001, representing a decrease of $12.4 million or 4.1%. Cash and cash equivalents decreased $13.5 million, or 38.9%, during the nine month period ending September 30, 2002, including a $15.6 million decrease in Federal funds sold. Total securities decreased approximately $18.7 million, or 20.2%, during the nine month period.  


The decreases in cash and cash equivalents and securities were primarily used to fund cash outflows for deposits which decreased $21.5 million, or 8.5%, during the nine month period.  This outflow was partially due to the continued maturity of higher rate certificates of deposit in a low, but competitive, rate environment. Securities sold under repurchase agreements decreased $1.4  million, or 9.5%,  during  the  nine  month  period  ended  September  30, 2002.  During the


CSB BANCORP, INC.


MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



second quarter of 2002, the Bank borrowed $10.0 million from the Federal Home Bank of Cincinnati for an 18-month term as part of a strategy of the Bank’s Asset/Liability Committee to take advantage of low cost funding alternatives in the current interest rate environment.


Net loans increased $21.5 million, or 13.1% during the nine month period ended September 30, 2002.  This increase was due to a combination of increased loan production within the Bank’s market area and loan participations with other banks.  The allowance for loan losses amounted to $3.1 million, or 1.62% of total loans, at September 30, 2002, compared to $4.0 million, or 2.38% of total loans at December 31, 2001.  The components of the change in the allowance for loan loss during the nine month period ended September 30, 2002, included a negative provision of $563,000 and net loan charge-offs of $395,000.  The negative provision resulted from significant progress made in reducing classified assets during the nine months ended September 30, 2002, including the successful workout of several large problem credits. Loans past due more than 90 days a nd loans placed on nonaccrual status were approximately $2.4 million, or 1.3% of total loans at September 30, 2002, compared to $3.3 million, or 1.9% of total loans at December 31, 2001.  


At September 30, 2002, the ratio of net loans to deposits was 81.1%, compared to 65.6% at the end of 2001. The increase in this ratio is due to the aforementioned loan growth and deposit shrinkage experienced during the nine months ended September 30, 2002.


Total shareholders’ equity increased to $33.7 million, or 11.45% of total assets, primarily due to year-to-date net income of $1.5 million less dividends declared of $526,000.  The Company and its subsidiary met all regulatory capital requirements at September 30, 2002.   



RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, was $1.5 million, or $0.58                    per share, as compared to $804,000, or $0.31 per share during the same period in 2001.  The increase in net income for 2002 is primarily due to the aforementioned negative loan loss provision of $563,000 (compared to a $183,000 provision in 2001) and a $691,000 (52.1%) decrease in professional and director fees, offset by a $383,000 (4.9%) decrease in net interest income and a $375,000 decrease in the federal income tax credit.


A provision of $183,000 was made to the allowance for loan losses in 2001 based on management’s analysis.  Based on ongoing analysis and significant progress in the resolution of and reduction in classified assets, the Company removed $563,000 from the allowance for loan losses for the nine month period of the current year.  Non-interest income increased $73,000, or 4.9%, and non-interest expense decreased $652,000, or 7.4%.



CSB BANCORP, INC.


MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


For the quarter ended September 30, 2002, the Company recorded net income of $636,000, or $0.24 per share, as compared to $1.9 million, or $0.71 per share for the same period in 2001.  During the third quarter of 2001, a negative provision for loan losses of $2.5 million was recorded as a result of the resolution of a significant classified credit.  Also, net interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2002 increased $178,000, or 7.3%, while non-interest expenses decreased $193,000, or 6.6%, as compared to the same quarter in 2001.


Interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 was  $12.6 million, a decrease of $4.3 million, or 25.4%, over the same period last year, including interest and fees on loans decreasing $3.6 million, or 27.7%, due to lower interest rates and lower average outstanding loans.  Interest on securities decreased $464,000, or 13.3%, as short term interest rates fell and certain callable securities were called. The proceeds from many of these called and matured securities were used to fund loan growth. Other interest income decreased $235,000 as interest rates were significantly lower on federal funds sold.  Interest income for the quarter ended September 30, 2002 was $4.1 million, a decrease of $1.2 million, or 22.1%, compared to the same period in 2001.  This decrease was due to the reasons previously noted.


Interest expense decreased $3.9 million, or 43.4%, to $5.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2001.  Interest expense on deposits decreased $3.8 million, or 45.2%, from the same period as last year, while interest expense on other borrowings decreased $117,000.  The decrease in deposit interest expense was caused by the lower rates on transaction accounts and certificates of deposit which reflect the 475 basis points decrease in short term rates by the Federal Reserve during 2001.  Interest expense for the quarter ended September 30, 2002 was $1.5 million, a decrease of $1.3 million, or 47.1%, from the same period in 2001.


The Bank reported a negative provision for loan losses of $563,000 during the first nine months of 2002, as compared to a provision of $183,000 in the same nine month period of 2001.  The negative provision was determined based on management’s calculation of the allowance for loan losses, which includes provisions for classified loans, as well as a provision for the remainder of the portfolio based on historical data, including past charge-offs, and current economic trends.  As mentioned previously, substantial progress has been made throughout 2002 in reducing classified assets.  The Bank reported a negative provision for loan losses for the three months ended September 30, 2002 of $321,000, compared to $2.5 million for the same quarter last year for the reasons stated above.


Non-interest income increased $73,000, or 4.9%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2002 as compared to the same period in 2001.  The increase in non-interest income was essentially due to a $52,000 increase in gain on sale of securities.  Non-interest expenses decreased $652,000, or 7.4%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, compared to the same period in 2001.  Salaries and employee benefits increased $157,000, or 4.0%; occupancy expense decreased $21,000, or 4.4%; and other expenses decreased $135,000 or 5.6%. The aforementioned  $691,000  decrease  in  professional  and  director  fees resulted from significant

consulting and other professional costs incurred in 2001 relating to the Bank’s compliance with the Written Agreement. The $375,000 decrease in the federal income tax credit resulted from a corresponding change in income before income taxes.


Non-interest income for the quarter ended September 30, 2002 was $496,000, a decrease of $4,000 compared to the same quarter in 2001.  Non-interest expenses for the three month period decreased $193,000, or 6.6%, compared to last year’s period.  This decrease was due to reasons previously noted.
