HORIZON FINANCIAL CORP.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2003
(unaudited)
NOTE 1 -
Basis of Presentation
- ---------------------
The consolidated financial statements for the three months ended June 30,
2003, include the accounts of Horizon Financial Corp. (the Corporation),
Horizon Bank (the Bank), and other subsidiaries of the Bank. Significant
intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The Corporation has engaged in no significant activity other than holding the
stock of the Bank.
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in
the consolidated financial statements. Changes in these estimates and
assumptions are considered reasonably possible and may have a material impact
on the financial statements and thus actual results could differ from the
amounts reported and disclosed herein.
The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to the
Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include
all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial
statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of
normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation are reflected in
the interim financial statements. The results of operations for the periods
ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the operating
results for the full year. For further information, refer to the consolidated
financial statements and footnotes thereto in the Horizon Financial Corp.
annual report for the year ended March 31, 2003.
Reclassification
- ----------------
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior financial statements to
conform with current presentation. Such reclassifications have no effect on
net income.
Net Income Per Share
- --------------------
Basic earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and
2002 are calculated on the basis of 10,551,570 and 10,729,299 weighted average
shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share for the three months ended June
30, 2003 and 2002 are calculated on the basis of 10,770,467 and 10,915,843
weighted average shares outstanding, respectively. Diluted EPS figures are
computed by determining the number of additional shares that are deemed
outstanding due to stock options and warrants under the treasury stock method.
7
Stock Options
- -------------
The Company recognizes the financial effects of stock options under the
intrinsic value method in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion
No. 25 Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25). Generally, stock
options are issued at a price equal to the fair value of the Company's stock
as of the grant date.
Under APB 25, options issued in this manner do not result in the
recognition of employee compensation in the Company's financial statements.
Disclosures required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, as amended are as follows.

New Accounting Pronouncements
- -----------------------------
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 150, Accounting for
Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and
Equity. This Statement 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
circumstance). Many of those instruments were previously classified as
equity. This statement 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, except for mandatory
redeemable financial instruments of nonpublic entities. The Corporation does
not expect the Statement will result in a material impact on its financial
position or results of operations.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion is intended to assist in understanding the
financial condition and results of operations of the Corporation and its
subsidiary. The information contained in this section should be read in
conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying
Notes contained herein.
Forward Looking Statements
- --------------------------
Management's Discussion and Analysis and other portions of this report
contain certain "forward looking statements" within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. This statement is for the express
purpose of availing Horizon Financial to the protections of such safe harbor
provisions of said Act with respect to all "forward looking statements."
Horizon Financial has used "forward looking statements" to describe future
plans and strategies, including expectations of Horizon Financial's potential
future financial results. Management's ability to predict results or the
effect of future plans and strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors that
could affect results include, but are not limited to: the future level of
interest rates, industry trends, general economic conditions, loan delinquency
rates, and changes in state and federal regulations. These factors should be
considered when evaluating the "forward looking statements" and undue reliance
should not be placed on such statements.
General
- -------
Horizon Financial Corp. was formed under Washington law on May 22, 1995,
and became the holding company for Horizon Bank, effective October 13, 1995.
Effective June 19, 1999 the Corporation completed the acquisition of
Bellingham Bancorporation, whose wholly-owned subsidiary, Bank of Bellingham,
was merged with and into Horizon Bank. At June 30, 2003, the Corporation had
total assets of $822.8 million, total deposits of $643.7 million and total
equity of $107.5 million. The Corporation's business activities generally are
limited to passive investment activities and oversight of its investment in
the Bank. Accordingly, the information set forth herein, including the
consolidated financial statements and related data, relates primarily to the
Bank and its subsidiary.
The Bank was organized in 1922 as a Washington State chartered mutual
savings and loan association and converted to a federal mutual savings and
loan association in 1934. In 1979, the Bank converted to a Washington State
chartered mutual savings bank, the deposits of which are insured by the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"). On August 12, 1986, the Bank
converted to a state chartered stock savings bank under the name "Horizon
Bank, a savings bank". The Bank became a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank
("FHLB") of Seattle in December 1998. Effective March 1, 2000, the Bank
changed its name to its current title, "Horizon Bank".
The Bank's operations are conducted through 16 full-service office
facilities, located in Whatcom, Skagit and Snohomish counties in Northwest
Washington. The acquisition of Bellingham Bancorporation increased Horizon
Financial's and Horizon Bank's presence in Whatcom County. During fiscal
2000, the Bank purchased a bank site in Marysville, which will provide
potential additional growth opportunities. In Fiscal 2002, the Bank acquired
a bank site in Lynnwood, Washington, which was remodeled and opened for
business in March 2003. The Bank also opened commercial banking/loan centers
in Bellingham, Snohomish, and Everett and expanded its operations in
Burlington during the first quarter of fiscal 2004.
Operating Strategy
- ------------------
The primary business of the Bank is to acquire funds in the form of
deposits and wholesale funds, and to use the funds to make commercial,
consumer, and real estate loans in the Bank's primary market area. In
addition, the Bank invests in a variety of investment grade securities
including, but not necessarily limited to U.S. Government and federal agency
obligations, mortgage-backed securities, corporate debt, equity securities,
and municipal securities. The Bank intends to continue to fund its assets
primarily with retail and commercial deposits, although FHLB advances, and
other wholesale borrowings, may be used as a supplemental source of funds.
The Bank's profitability depends primarily on its net interest income,
which is the difference between the income it receives on its loan and
investment portfolio and its cost of funds, which consists of interest paid on
deposits and borrowings.
Net interest income is also affected by the relative amounts of
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.
9
When interest-earning assets equal or exceed interest-bearing liabilities, any
positive interest rate spread will generate net interest income. The Bank's
profitability is also affected by the level of other income and expenses.
Other non interest income includes income associated with the origination and
sale of mortgage loans, loan servicing fees and net gains and losses on sales
of interest-earning assets. Other non interest expenses include compensation
and benefits, occupancy and equipment expenses, deposit insurance premiums,
data servicing expenses, and other operating costs. The Bank's results of
operations are also significantly affected by general economic and competitive
conditions, particularly changes in market interest rates, government
legislation, regulation, and monetary and fiscal policies.
The Bank's business strategy is to operate as a well-capitalized,
profitable and independent community bank, dedicated to commercial lending,
home mortgage lending, consumer lending, small business lending and providing
quality financial services to local personal and business customers. The Bank
has sought to implement this strategy by: (i) focusing on commercial banking
opportunities; (ii) continued efforts towards the origination of residential
mortgage loans, including one- to- four family residential construction loans;
(iii) providing high quality, personalized financial services to individuals
and business customers and communities served by its branch network; (iv)
selling many of its fixed rate mortgages to the secondary market; (v) focusing
on asset quality; (vi) containing operating expenses; and (vii) maintaining
capital in excess of regulatory requirements combined with prudent growth.
Financial Condition
- -------------------
Total consolidated assets for the Corporation as of June 30, 2003, were
$822,833,573, a slight increase from the March 31, 2003, level of
$819,871,874. This increase in assets was due primarily to the growth in
loans receivable, which increased 3.18% to $600,791,461 from $582,269,145 at
March 31, 2003. The following is an analysis of the loan portfolio by major
type of loans:

Also contributing to the increase in assets was the growth in available for
sale investment and mortgage-backed securities, which, combined, increased
9.53% to $123,196,669 from $112,481,993 at March 31, 2003.

Total liabilities also increased slightly to $715,291,251 at June 30,
2003, from $713,628,356 at March 31, 2003. This increase in liabilities was
due in large part to the growth in accounts payable and other liabilities,
which increased 57.45% to $12,672,033 from $8,048,477 at March 31, 2003 due to
a timing difference related to outstanding bank checks. Also contributing to
the net change in total liabilities was the slight decrease in deposits, to
$643,651,049 from $646,722,160 at March 31, 2003. The following is an
analysis of the deposit portfolio by major type of deposit at June 30, 2003

Stockholders' equity at June 30, 2003 increased 1.22% to $107,542,322
from $106,243,518 at March 31, 2003. This increase was due primarily to the
increase in net income of $3,321,340 less dividends paid and shares
repurchased. The Corporation remains strong in terms of its capital position,
with a stockholder equity-to-assets ratio of 13.07% at June 30, 2003, compared
to 12.96% at March 31, 2003.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
The Bank maintains liquid assets in the form of cash and short-term
investments to provide a source to fund loans, savings withdrawals, and other
short-term cash requirements. At June 30, 2003, the Bank had liquid assets
(cash and marketable securities with maturities of one year or less) with a
book value of $73,341,324.
As of June 30, 2003, the total book value of investments and
mortgage-backed securities was $116,662,800 compared to a market value of
$126,090,823 with an unrealized gain of $9,428,023. As of March 31, 2003 the
total book value of investments and mortgage-backed securities was
$106,509,636, compared to a market value of $115,867,756 with an unrealized
gain of $9,358,120. The Bank foresees no factors that would impair its
ability to hold debt securities to maturity.
As indicated on the Corporation's Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows,
the Bank's primary sources of funds are cash flow from operations, which
consist primarily of mortgage loan repayments, deposit increases, loan sales,
borrowings, and cash received from the maturity or sale of investment
securities. The Bank's liquidity fluctuates with the supply of funds and
management believes that the current level of liquidity is adequate at this
time. If additional liquidity is needed, the Bank's options include, but are
not necessarily limited to: 1) Selling additional loans in the secondary
market; 2) Entering into reverse repurchase agreements; 3) Borrowing from the
FHLB of Seattle; 4) Accepting additional jumbo and/or public funds deposits;
or 5) Accessing the discount window of the Federal Reserve Bank of San
Francisco.
Stockholders' equity as of June 30, 2003 was $107,542,322, or 13.07% of
assets, compared to $106,243,518, or 12.96% of assets at March 31, 2003. The
Bank continues to exceed the 5.0% minimum tier one capital required by the
FDIC in order to be considered well capitalized. The Bank's total
risk-adjusted capital ratio as of June 30, 2003 was 18.12%, compared to 18.70%
as of March 31, 2003. These figures are well above the well-capitalized
minimum of 10% set by the FDIC.
The Corporation has been in various buy-back programs since August 1996.
At its October 24, 2000 meeting, the Board of Directors authorized the
repurchase of up to 10% (approximately 1,121,250 shares, as restated) of the
Corporation's outstanding Common Stock over a 24 month period. In total, the
Corporation repurchased 769,059 shares under this plan at a weighted average
price of $9.88.
At its October 22, 2002 meeting, the Board of Directors authorized its
fourth repurchase plan, allowing the repurchase of up to 10% (approximately
1,065,000 shares) of the Corporation's outstanding Common Stock over a 12
month period. During the quarter ended June 30, 2003, the Corporation
repurchased 77,300 shares at an average price of $16.16. In total, through
June 30, 2003, the Corporation has repurchased 273,000 under this plan, at a
weighted average price of $14.73.
Management intends to continue its stock buy-back programs from time to
time as long as repurchasing the stock is perceived to contribute to the
overall growth of shareholder value. The number of shares of stock that will
be repurchased and the price that will be paid is the result of many factors,
several of which are outside of the control of the Corporation. The primary
factors, however, are market and economic factors such as the price at which
the stock is trading in the market, the number of shares available in the
market; the attractiveness of other investment alternatives in terms of the
rate of return and risk involved in the investment; the ability to increase
the value and/or earnings per share of the remaining outstanding shares, and
the Bank's and the Corporation's liquidity and capital needs and regulatory
requirements. Presently, it is management's belief that purchases made under
the current Board approved plan will not materially affect the Bank's capital
or liquidity position.

Net Interest Income
- -------------------
Net interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2003, increased
12.82% to $8,123,072 from $7,200,065 in the same time period of the previous
year. Interest on loans for the quarter ended June 30, 2003, decreased 2.29%
to $10,819,350, from $11,072,655. Included in these numbers are $607,739 and
$337,527, respectively of deferred fee income recognition as a result of loan
paydowns, payoffs, and loans sold from the portfolio. The decrease in total
interest on loans was due primarily to the overall decline in interest rates.
Interest and dividends on investments and mortgage-backed securities decreased
slightly to $1,440,174, from $1,445,794 for the comparable quarter a year ago.
Total interest income decreased 2.07% to $12,259,524 from $12,518,449 due to
the overall decline in interest rates.
Total interest paid on deposits decreased 27.94% to $3,572,455 from
$4,957,306. This decrease in interest expense is due to an overall decline in
interest rates. Interest on borrowings increased to $563,997 during the
quarter, compared to $361,078 for the comparable period one year ago. The
increased expense in the current year was due to a higher level of borrowings
outstanding. The Bank continues to carry wholesale borrowings in order to
further leverage its balance sheet and better manage its interest rate risk
profile.
Provision for losses on loans
- -----------------------------
Provisions for loan losses are charges to earnings to bring the total
allowance for loan losses to a level considered by management as adequate to
provide for known and inherent risks in the loan portfolio, based on
management's continuing analysis of factors underlying the quality of the loan
portfolio. These factors include changes in portfolio size and composition,
actual loss experience, current economic conditions, detailed analysis of
individual loans for which full collectibility may not be assured, and
determination of the existence and realizable value of the collateral and
guarantees securing the loans.
The provision for loan losses was $525,000 for the quarter ended June 30,
2003 compared to $300,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2002. This increase
resulted from management's ongoing analysis of changes in loan portfolio
composition by collateral categories, overall credit quality of the portfolio,
peer group analysis, and current economic conditions. The reserve for loan
losses was $8,768,273, or 1.46% of loans receivable at June 30, 2003, compared
to $6,146,517, or 1.10% of loans receivable at June 30 2002. The increased
allowance level resulted from continued loan portfolio growth in the higher-
risk lending categories of commercial and multi-family construction/permanent
loans and business loans during the period, which comprised $370.3 million, or
61.6% of the portfolio at June 30, 2003, versus $254.5 million, or 45.6% at
June 30, 2002.
In addition, commercial and multi-family loans have larger individual
loan amounts, which have a greater single impact on the total portfolio
quality in the event of delinquency or default. The Bank considers these
increased provisions to be appropriate, due to the changing portfolio mix and
the uncertain regional economic environment. Northwest Washington's economy
has been adversely affected by a number of factors, including but not limited
to slowdowns in the aerospace, technology, and telecommunications industries.
As of June 30, 2003, there were 6 loans in the Bank's portfolio over 90
days delinquent. At June 30, 2003 total non-performing loans were $349,110.
Real estate owned at June 30, 2003 totaled $153,302. Total non-performing
assets represented .06% of total assets at June 30, 2003 compared to $450,634
or .06% of total assets at June 30, 2002.
As of June 30,

Non Interest Income
- -------------------
Non interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2003, increased
49.20% to $2,266,384 from $1,519,010 for the same time period a year ago.
Service fee income increased 74.85% to $973,252 from $556,628. The primary
reason for the increase over the prior year was increased loan fees and escrow
fee income due to the higher volume of loan originations, both in the mortgage
and commercial loan divisions. The net gain/loss on the sale of loans
servicing released increased to $794,535 from $404,852 in the comparable
period one year ago. The recent low mortgage rate environment was the primary
reason for this increase over the prior year. In February of 2001, the Bank
began selling many of its new long-term fixed rate mortgages into the
secondary market on a servicing released basis. Other non-interest income for
the quarter increased 13.98% to $492,134 from $431,769. The primary reason
for the increase in fiscal 2004 is the recognition of approximately $96,000 in
profit from a real estate development project from a joint venture of the
Bank's wholly owned subsidiary, Westward Financial Services Corporation.
Non Interest Expense
- --------------------
Non interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2003, increased
18.06% to $4,915,759 from $4,163,790. Compensation and employee benefits
increased 23.83% for the quarter ended June 30, 2003, to $2,779,136 from
$2,244,358. The increase in compensation and employee benefits during the
quarter ended June 30, 2003 was primarily due to the overall growth in
employment at the Bank, including key additions to staff as the Bank continues
its efforts to enhance its commercial banking expertise, along with additional
staff for the Lynnwood office. Building occupancy for the quarter ended June
30, 2003 increased slightly to $605,572 from $589,527. Data processing
expenses decreased 66.74% to $82,349 from $247,626. The primary reason for
this decline relates to a renegotiation of the Bank's contract with its core
data processor. Advertising and marketing expenses for the quarter ended June
30, 2003 decreased slightly to $212,136 from $214,372. Other non-interest
expense increased 42.48% to $1,236,566 from $867,907 due to the overall growth
of the Bank and a decreasing mortgage servicing portfolio. The increased
refinance activity in the low rate environment resulted in an increased
amortization of the associated mortgage servicing asset. Also contributing to
the increase in fiscal 2004 was the recognition of approximately $52,000 in
Other Real Estate Owned expenses/losses.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The Corporation continues to be exposed to interest rate risk.
Currently, the Corporation's assets and liabilities are not materially exposed
to foreign currency or commodity price risk. At June 30, 2003, the
Corporation had no off-balance sheet derivative financial instruments, nor did
it have a trading portfolio of investments. At June 30, 2003, there were no
material changes in the Corporation's market risk from the information
provided in the Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2003.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
- ------------------------------------------------
An evaluation of the Corporation's disclosure controls and procedures (as
defined in Section 13(a)-14(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the
"Act")) was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of
the Corporation's Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and
several other members of the Corporation's senior management within the 90-day
period preceding the filing date of this quarterly report. The Corporation's
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the
Corporation's disclosure controls and procedures as currently in effect are
effective in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed by the
Corporation in the reports it files or submits under the Act is (i)
accumulated and communicated to the Corporation's management (including the
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer) in a timely manner, and
(ii) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods
specified in the SEC's rules and forms.
Changes in Internal Controls
- ----------------------------
In the quarter ended June 30, 2003, the Corporation did not make any
significant changes in, nor take any corrective actions regarding, its
internal controls or other factors that could significantly affect these
controls.
