2.     The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

3.     The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2002 Annual Report contained in the Registrant’s report on Form 10-K filing.

4.     The provision for income taxes represents Federal income tax expense calculated using annualized rates on taxable income generated during the respective periods.

5.     Management’s assessment of the allowance for loan losses is based on an evaluation of the loan portfolio, recent loss experience, current economic conditions, and other pertinent factors. Loans on non-accrual status and those past due more than 90 days amounted to $6,400,000 at March 31, 2003, $2,230,000 at March 31, 2002, and $4,097,000 at December 31, 2002. (See Management’s Discussion and Analysis of financial condition and results of operations).

6.     Basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) are computed by dividing net income by the respective weighted average common shares outstanding.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Interim Financial Statements

This report includes certain forward-looking statements, within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, that involve inherent risks and uncertainties. A number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Those factors include the economic environment, competition, products and pricing in business areas in which FNBH Bancorp, Inc. (the Company) operates, prevailing interest rates, changes in government regulations and policies affecting financial service companies, credit quality and credit risk management, acquisitions and integration of acquired businesses.

The Company, a Michigan business corporation, is a one bank holding company, which owns all of the outstanding capital stock of First National Bank in Howell (the Bank) and all of the outstanding stock of HB Realty Co., a subsidiary which owns real estate. The following is a discussion of the Company’s results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, and also provides information relating to the Company’s financial condition, focusing on its liquidity and capital resources.

Basic and diluted net income per share                                            $.42        $.50

The Company's earnings decreased $258,000 (16.4%) for the three months ended March 31, 2003 compared to the same period of the prior year. Contributing to the decline in net income were increases in the provision for loan losses and non interest expenses. Offsetting these unfavorable variances were increases in net interest income, non-interest income and a lower accrual for income tax.

Net interest income increased $233,000 (5.5%) due to the increased average loans and a lower cost of funding in 2003. Average earning assets and interest bearing liabilities both increased for the period while the yield on both declined. The following table illustrates some of the factors contributing to the increase in net interest income for the first quarter.

Interest Earning Assets/Interest Income
On a tax equivalent basis, interest income decreased approximately $187,000 (2.9%) in the first quarter of 2003 compared to that of 2002. The decrease was due to a decrease of 75 basis points in the interest yield on earning assets, partially offset by an increase in average earning asset balances of $30,625,000.

The first quarter average balance in loans increased 12.9% to $331,700,000. The rate earned on loans decreased 83 basis points in 2003 compared to last year. Average commercial loans increased $31,300,000 (11.7%); while average consumer loans increased $1,900,000 (6.2%) and mortgage loans increased $4,700,000 (16.7%). In addition to the increase in portfolio mortgage loans, the Bank also sold approximately $8,200,000 in residential mortgage loans to the secondary market in the first quarter of 2003 compared to $7,000,000 in the first quarter of 2002, resulting in higher gains on the sale of loans in 2003. The increased sales are the result of low mortgage rates in 2003.

In the first quarter, tax equivalent income on short and long term investments decreased approximately $226,000 as the result of a decline in average balances of $7,200,000 and a decline in the yield of approximately 87 basis points. The decrease in the investment balance in the first quarter is because average loan growth outpaced average deposit growth and the proceeds from investment securities were used to fund loan growth. In the first quarter of 2003 non-interest bearing demand deposits increased $2,900,000 due to the low interest rate environment, also helping to fund loan growth.

Interest Bearing Liabilities/Interest Expense
In the first quarter of 2003, interest expense decreased approximately $412,000 (19.3%) due to a 73 basis point decrease in rates although average balances increased approximately $21,600,000 (7.3%). Savings and NOW interest expense decreased $52,000 because rates decreased 33 basis points although average balances increased nearly $25,600,000 (16.7%). Interest on time deposits decreased $340,000 in 2003 compared to the first quarter of the prior year, while average balances were unchanged but the rate paid on time deposits decreased 103 basis points in that time period.

Additionally the Bank’s interest costs decreased as proceeds from investment securities were used to fund loan growth. The Bank incurred no interest expense on short term borrowings in 2003 compared to $16,000 in 2002. The Bank also has two longer term advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis (FHLBI). One borrowing, an amortizing loan contracted in January 2000, was initiated to match the maturity of a fixed rate loan made to a local township. The other borrowing, of $3,000,000 from April 2000, was intended to help with the Bank’s rate sensitivity position. Interest expense related to these loans amounted to $98,000 in the first quarter of the current year compared to $102,000 in 2002. It is reasonable to expect that part of future loan growth will continue to be funded with FHLBI borrowings.



11



Liquidity
Liquidity is monitored by the Bank’s Asset/Liability Management Committee (ALCO), which meets at least monthly. The Board of Directors has approved a liquidity policy which requires the Bank, while it is well capitalized as defined by the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC), to maintain a current ratio of no less than 1:1 (core basic surplus liquidity equal to 0), representing that the Bank’s contingency for unexpected funding outflows is being met primarily by short-term investments and unencumbered treasury and agency securities. Additional requirements of the policy are that when FHLBI available credit is added to core basic surplus liquidity, the Bank must have liquidity totaling 5% of assets and when brokered CDs and Fed Funds lines are added, the Bank must have liquidity totaling 8% of assets. Should the Bank’s capital ratios fall below the “well capitalized” level, additional liquidity totaling 5% of assets will be required. As of March 31, 2003, the Company had a $12,000,000 surplus of core basic liquidity.

Deposits are the principal source of funds for the Bank. Management monitors rates at other financial institutions in the area to ascertain that its rates are competitive in the market. Management also attempts to offer a wide variety of products to meet the needs of its customers. The makeup of the Bank’s over $100,000 certificates, which are generally considered to be more volatile and sensitive to changes in rates, consists of local depositors known to the Bank. As of March 31, 2003, the Bank had certificates over $100,000 totaling approximately $44,300,000 compared to $44,000,000 at December 31, 2002.

It is the intention of the Bank’s management to handle unexpected liquidity needs through its Federal Funds position. The goal is to maintain a daily Fed Funds Sold balance sufficient to cover required cash draws. From time to time the Bank will borrow Fed Funds from a correspondent bank. In addition, the Bank can borrow approximately $25,000,000 from the FHLBI. As of March 31, 2003 the Bank had $5,300,000 in FHLBI borrowings. The Bank has pledged certain mortgage loans as collateral for this borrowing. In addition, the Bank has a repurchase agreement in place with a broker who will lend money against certain securities of the Bank. Finally, management may look to “available for sale” securities in the investment portfolio to meet additional liquidity needs.

Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is also addressed by ALCO. Interest rate risk is the potential for economic losses due to future rate changes and can be reflected as a loss of future net interest income and/or loss of current market values. The objective is to measure the effect on net interest income and to adjust the balance sheet to minimize the inherent risk while, at the same time, maximizing income. Tools used by management include the standard gap report which lays out the repricing schedule for various asset and liability categories and an interest rate simulation report. The Bank has no market risk sensitive instruments held for trading purposes. The Bank has not entered into futures, forwards, swaps, or options to manage interest rate risk. However, the Bank is party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers including commitments to extend credit and letters of credit. A commitment or letter of credit is not recorded as an asset until the instrument is exercised.

In addition to liquidity and interest rate risk management issues, ALCO discusses the Bank’s performance and the current economic outlook and its impact on the Bank and current interest rate forecasts. Actual results are compared to budget in terms of growth and income. A yield and cost analysis is done to monitor interest margin. Various ratios are discussed including capital ratios, interest rate sensitivity, and liquidity ratios.

The preceding table sets forth the time periods in which earning assets and interest bearing liabilities will mature or may re-price in accordance with their contractual terms. The entire balance of savings, MMDA, and NOW are not categorized as 0-3 months, although they are variable rate products. Some of these balances are core deposits and are not considered rate sensitive. Allocations are made to time periods based on the Bank’s historical experience and management’s analysis of industry trends.

In the gap table above, the short term (one year and less) cumulative interest rate sensitivity is 20% asset sensitive as of March 31, 2003. However, gap analysis is limited and may not provide an accurate indication of the impact of general interest rate movements on the net interest margin since repricing of various categories of assets and liabilities is subject to the Bank’s needs, competitive pressures, and the needs of the Bank’s customers. In addition, various assets and liabilities indicated as repricing within the same period may in fact reprice at different times within the period and at different rate indices. Additionally, simulation modeling, which measures the impact of upward and downward movements of interest rates on interest margin, provides meaningful insight into strategies management can take to help mitigate the negative impact of interest rates movements. Simulation analysis reflects an expectation that net interest income will improve if interest rates increase, and conversely net interest income will decrease if interest rates decline.

The Company provided a loan loss accrual in the first quarter of 2003 after having no provision in the same period last year. The provision in the first quarter of 2003 is based upon an analysis of losses inherent in the portfolio and other economic factors. Non-performing loans are $2,300,000 higher than at December 31, 2002, and $4,200,000 higher than March 31, 2002. At March 31, 2003, the allowance for loan loss as a percent of loans was 1.79%, compared to 1.81% a year earlier, and 1.77% at December 31, 2002. For the first three months of 2003 the Bank had net charge offs of $146,000, compared with net charge offs of $172,000 the previous year. Non-accrual, past due 90 days, and renegotiated loans totaled 1.91% and .73% of total loans outstanding at March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, and 1.25% of total loans at December 31, 2002.

Impaired loans, as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, totaled approximately $10,300,000 at March 31, 2003, compared to $9,300,000 at December 31, 2002, and $8,900,000 at March 31, 2002. Impaired loans included non-accrual, and past due 90 days other than homogenous residential and consumer loans, and an additional $4,200,000 of commercial loans separately identified as impaired. A loan is considered impaired when it is probable that all or part of amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement will not be collectable on a timely basis. One of the impaired loans for $2,200,000 is secured by commercial real estate; however, the cash generated solely by the business is not adequate to cover debt service. Another loan for $1,000,000 was made to purchase office buildings in Lansing. The buildings are not leased and cash flow has not been sufficient to cover debt service. A third loan for $1,300,000 is secured by real estate and is currently in foreclosure; however, the appraised value of the real estate exceeds the principal loan balance. Nonperforming loans are reviewed regularly for collectability. Any uncollectable balances are promptly charged off.

The adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is determined by management’s assessment of the composition of the loan portfolio, an evaluation of specific credits, an analysis of the value of the underlying collateral for those loans, historical loss experience, and the level of nonperforming loans, loans that have been identified as impaired, and the overall credit quality of the loan portfolio. Management continues to refine its techniques in this analysis. Externally, the local economy and events or trends which might negatively impact the loan portfolio are also considered. Impaired loans had specific reserves calculated in accordance with SFAS No. 114 of $1,900,000 at March 31, 2003, $2,000,000 at December 31, 2002, and $1,400,000 at March 31, 2002.

Nonperforming assets are loans for which the accrual of interest has been discontinued, accruing loans 90 days or more past due in payments, and other real estate which has been acquired primarily through foreclosure and is waiting disposition. The following table describes nonperforming assets at March 31, 2003 compared to December 31, 2002. Loans are generally placed on a nonaccrual basis when principal or interest is past due 90 days or more and when, in the opinion of management, full collection of principal and interest is unlikely. Loans categorized as ninety days past due and still accruing are well secured and in the process of collection.

Non-interest income, which includes service charges on deposit and loan accounts, trust fees, other operating income, and gain (loss) on sale of assets, increased by approximately $142,000 (17.8%) in the first quarter of 2003 compared to the same period in the previous year. Service charge income increased $103,400 (16.1%) due to increasing numbers of deposit and loan accounts. The $34,000 (31.7%) increase in gains on the sale of loans is a result of increased volume of mortgage sales and higher gains on sales. In the first quarter of this year the loan department has sold $8,200,000 of new residential mortgage loans compared to $7,000,000 in the same period last year. Trust fees increased slightly, $9,000, the result of growth in the business offset by a general decrease in the market value of trust assets. “Other” income decreased $2,000 due to increased losses on the sale of repossessed vehicles.

Non-interest expense increased $418,000 (14.9%) in the first quarter of 2003 compared to the same period last year. Contributing to this increase were increases of $224,300 (14.3%) in salaries and benefits, $30,500 (14.8%) in net occupancy expense, $70,500 (33.5%) increase in equipment costs, and $107,000 (20.4%) increase in other costs. The increase in salaries and benefits expense was principally the result of normal salary increases and additional positions added to keep pace with the Bank’s growth in assets. Occupancy and equipment costs increased primarily due to the opening of a new branch in 2002 and the new operations center in 2003. The increase in other expenses is due primarily to increased costs for legal, audit, and computer fees. Telephone costs are also higher in the first quarter due to new lines for operations center and changes in how ATMs are processed.

A financial institution’s capital ratio is looked upon by the regulators and the public as an indication of its soundness. The Federal Reserve Board provides guidelines for the measurement of capital adequacy. The Bank’s capital, as adjusted under these guidelines, is referred to as risk-based capital. The Bank’s Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio at March 31, 2003 was 9.97%, and total risk-based capital was 11.22%. At March 31, 2002 these ratios were 9.21% and 10.46% respectively. Minimum regulatory Tier 1 risk-based and total risk-based capital ratios under the Federal Reserve Board guidelines are 4% and 8%, respectively.

The capital guidelines also provide for a standard to measure risk-based capital to total assets which is called the leverage ratio. The Bank’s leverage ratio was 8.45% at March 31, 2003 and 8.05% in 2002. The minimum standard leverage ratio is 3%, however; financial institutions are expected to maintain a leverage ratio 2 percentage points above the 3% minimum to be classified as a well capitalized institution.

In 1998 the Company exercised an option to purchase an 18 acre tract of land in northwest Brighton primarily to acquire a prime site for a new branch. The cost of the property was approximately $4,000,000. In 1999 a new branch of the Bank was built on a portion of the land valued at approximately $800,000. During 2000 one parcel of the property was sold. The remaining property is held for sale. Improvements needed to enhance the salability of the property are not expected to exceed $200,000.

The Company also owns a branch site in Hamburg which is valued at approximately $330,000. Construction has begun on the Hamburg branch and is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2003. This building project is expected to be financed from internally generated funds.

Contractual Obligations
As of March 31, 2003, December 31, 2002 and March 31, 2002, the Bank had outstanding irrevocable standby letters of credit, which carry a maximum potential commitment of approximately $3,300,000, $3,100,000 and $2,100,000, respectively. These letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The majority of these letters of credit are short-term guarantees of one year or less, although some have maturities which extend as long as two years. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers. The Bank primarily holds real estate as collateral supporting those commitments for which collateral is deemed necessary. The extent of collateral held on those commitments at March 31, 2003, December 31, 2002 and March 31, 2002, where there is collateral, is in excess of the committed amount. A letter of credit is not recorded on the balance sheet until a customer fails to perform.

Critical Accounting Policies
The Company maintains critical accounting policies for the allowance for loan losses, mortgage servicing rights and the classification and valuation of securities. Refer to notes 1c, 1d and 1e of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information incorporated by reference to the Annual Report to Shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2002.

Accounting Standards

  In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections. Statement No. 145 rescinds FASB Statement No. 4, Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt, and FASB Statement No. 64, Extinguishments of Debt Made to Satisfy Sinking-Fund Requirements. This Statement also rescinds FASB Statement No. 44, Accounting for Intangible Assets of Motor Carriers, and amends FASB Statement No. 13, Accounting for Leases, to eliminate an inconsistency between the required accounting for sale-leaseback transactions and for certain lease modifications that have economic effects that are similar to sale-leaseback transactions. This Statement also amends other existing authoritative pronouncements to make various technical corrections, clarify meanings, or describe their applicability under changed conditions. Statement No. 145 is effective for fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002, with early adoption of the provisions related to the rescission of Statement No. 4 encouraged. Upon adoption, enterprises must reclassify prior-period items that do not meet the extraordinary-item classification criteria in APB 30. Adoption of this Statement did not have a significant impact on the Bank’s results of operations or financial condition.

  In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. Statement No. 146 nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 94-3, Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (Including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring).


18





  The principal difference between Statement No. 146 and Issue 94-3 relates to its requirements for recognition of a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity. This Statement requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized and measured initially at fair value only when the liability is incurred. Under Issue 94-3, the liability was recognized at the date of an entity’s commitment to an exit plan. Statement No. 146 is effective for exit or disposal activities (including restructuring) that are initiated after December 31, 2002, with early adoption encouraged. Adoption of this Statement did not have a significant impact on the Bank’s results of operations or financial condition.

  On December 31, 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure, which amends SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-based Compensation. SFAS No. 148 amends the disclosure requirements in SFAS No. 123 for stock-based compensation for annual periods ending after December 15, 2002 and for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2002. These disclosure requirements apply to all companies, including those that continue to recognize stock-based compensation under APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. Effective for financial statements for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002, SFAS No. 148 also provides three alternative transition methods for companies that choose to adopt the fair-value measurement provisions of SFAS No. 123. Earlier application of those transition methods is permitted for entities with a fiscal year ending prior to December 15, 2002, provided that financial statements for the 2002 fiscal year have not been issued as of December 31, 2002. Adoption of this Statement did not have a significant impact on the Bank’s results of operations or financial condition.

  In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45, Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others (the Interpretation), which addresses the disclosure to be made by a guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements about its obligations under guarantees. The initial recognition and initial measurement provisions of this Interpretation are applicable on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002, regardless of the guarantor’s fiscal year end. The guarantor may not revise or restate its previous accounting for guarantees issued before the date of the Interpretation’s initial application to reflect the effect of the recognition and measurement provisions of the Interpretation. The disclosure requirements in this Interpretation are effective for financial statements of interim or annual periods ending after December 15, 2002. Adoption of the measurement requirements of this Interpretation did not have a significant impact on the Bank’s results of operations or financial condition.
