NORTH BAY BANCORP
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
March 31, 2003
NOTE 1 - Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements, which include the accounts
of North Bay Bancorp and its subsidiaries (the "Company"), have been prepared
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
(SEC) and in Management's opinion, include all adjustments (consisting only of
normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of results for
such interim periods. The subsidiaries consist of two community banks, The
Vintage Bank, established in 1985, and Solano Bank, which opened in 2000 and
North Bay Statutory Trust 1 which was established in June 2002. All significant
intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Certain information
and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted
pursuant to SEC rules or regulations; however, the Company believes that the
disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
The interim results for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, are not
necessarily indicative of results for the full year. It is suggested that these
financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and
the notes included in the Company's Annual Report for the year ended December
31, 2002.
NOTE 2 - Commitments
The Company has outstanding standby Letters of Credit of approximately $658,000,
undisbursed real estate and construction loans of approximately $25,209,000, and
undisbursed commercial and consumer lines of credit of approximately
$58,560,000, as of March 31, 2003. At March 31, 2002 the Company has outstanding
standby Letters of Credit of approximately $1,286,000, undisbursed real estate
and construction loans of approximately $17,451,000, and undisbursed commercial
and consumer lines of credit of approximately $36,975,000.
NOTE 3 - Earnings Per Common Share
The Company declared a 5% stock dividend on January 27, 2003. As a result of the
stock dividend the number of common shares outstanding and earnings per share
data was adjusted retroactively for all periods presented.
The following table (in thousands except share data) reconciles the numerator
and denominator of the Basic and Diluted earnings per share computations:
Weighted Average Per-Share
Net Income Shares Amount
---------- --------- -------
For the three months ended March 31, 2003
Basic earnings per share $ 895 2,239,532 $ .40

---------
Diluted earnings per share 2,311,599 $ .39
For the three months ended March 31, 2002
Basic earnings per share $ 778 2,162,738 $ .36
Dilutive effect of stock options 57,061
---------
Diluted earnings per share 2,219,799 $ .35
NOTE 4- Stock-Based Compensation
The Company uses the intrinsic value method to account for its stock option
plans (in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion
No. 25 and related interpretations). Under this method, compensation expense is
recognized for awards of options to purchase shares of common stock to employees
under compensatory plans only if the fair market value of the stock at the
option grant date (or other measurement date, if later) is greater than the
amount the employee must pay to acquire the stock. Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 123 (SFAS 123), "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation", permits companies to continue using the intrinsic-value method to
account for stock option plans or adopt a fair value based method. The fair
value based method results in recognizing as expense over the vesting period the
fair value of all stock-based awards on the date of grant. The Company has
elected to continue to use the intrinsic value method and the pro forma
disclosures required by SFAS 123. Using the fair value method the Company's net
income and earnings per share amounts would have been reduced to the pro forma
amounts as indicated below:

in 2002.
(3) Average yields shown are taxable-equivalent. On a non- taxable basis,
2003 interest income was $160 with an average yield of 4.71%; in 2002
non-taxable income was $149 and the average yield was 4.16%.
(4) Net interest margin is calculated by dividing net interest income by
the average balance of total earning assets for the applicable period.

Net interest income represents the amount by which interest earned on earning
assets (primarily loans and investments) exceed the amount of interest paid on
deposits. Net interest income is a function of volume, interest rates and level
of non-accrual loans. Non-refundable loan origination fees are deferred and
amortized into income over the life of the loan. Net interest income before the
provision for loan losses on a taxable-equivalent basis for the three months
ended March 31, 2003 and March 31, 2002 was $4,615,000 and $4,055,000,
respectively. These results equate to a 14% increase in net interest income for
the first quarter of 2003 compared to the first quarter of 2002. Loan fee
income, which is included in interest income, was $258,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 2003, compared with $264,000 for the three months ended March
31, 2002. The average balance of earning assets increased $76,377,000 or 26%
during the twelve months ended March 31, 2003. Taxable-equivalent interest
income increased $538,000 in the first quarter of 2003 compared with the first
quarter of 2002. Increase in the volume of earning assets accounted for
$1,292,000 of this increase, offset by a decrease of $754,000 attributable to
lower rates. The average balance of interest-bearing liabilities increased
$60,920,000 or 28% during the first three months of 2003 compared with the same
period in 2002. Interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities decreased $22,000
in 2003 compared with 2002.The decrease is attributed to a decrease in rates of
$253,000 offset by an increase in the volume of deposits of $231,000. Management
does not expect a material change in the Company's net interest margin during
the next twelve months as the result of a modest increase or decrease in general
interest rates.
The following table sets forth a summary of the changes in interest earned and
interest paid for the first three months in 2003 over 2002 resulting from
changes in assets and liabilities volumes and rates. The change in interest due
to both rate and volume has been allocated in proportion to the relationship of
absolute dollar amounts of change in each.

PROVISION AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
The Company maintains an allowance for loan losses at a level considered
adequate to provide for losses that can be reasonably anticipated. The allowance
is increased by the provision for loan losses and reduced by net charge offs.
The allowance for loan losses is based on estimates, and ultimate losses may
vary from current estimates. These estimates are reviewed periodically and as
adjustments become necessary they are reported in earnings in the periods in
which they become known. The Company conducts credit reviews of the loan
portfolio and considers current economic conditions, historical loan loss
experience and other factors in determining the adequacy of the allowance
balance. This evaluation establishes a specific allowance for all classified
loans over $50,000 and establishes percentage allowance requirements for all
other loans, according to the classification as determined by the Company's
internal grading system. As of March 31, 2003 the allowance for loan losses of
$3,327,000 represented 1.30% of loans outstanding. As of March 31, 2002 the
allowance represented 1.46% of loans outstanding. During the three months ended
March 31, 2003 $45,000 was charged to expense for the loan loss provision,
compared with $144,000 for the same period in 2002. There were net charge-offs
of $8,000 during the first quarter of 2003 compared with no net charge-offs
during the first quarter of 2002. The following table summarizes changes in the
allowance for loan losses:

There were no loans on non-accrual status as of March 31, 2002 or December 31,
2002.
NON-INTEREST INCOME
Non-interest income was $709,000, exclusive of gains on securities transactions,
for the three months ended March 31, 2003 compared with $633,000 for the same
period in 2002, a 12% increase. Non-interest income primarily consists of
service charges and other fees related to deposit accounts. The increase in
non-interest income resulted primarily from an increase in the number of deposit
accounts, transaction volumes and directly related service charges.
GAINS ON SECURITIES
Net gains of $99,000 and $66,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and
March 31, 2002, respectively, resulted from the sale of several
available-for-sale securities.
NON-INTEREST EXPENSE
Non-interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and March 31,
2002 was $4,015,000 and $3,367,000, respectively, a 19% increase. Salaries and
employee benefits expense for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002
were $2,306,000 and $1,904,000, respectively, a 21% increase. The increase in
2003 resulted from increased salary rates and related benefits paid to Company
officers and employees, and an increase of approximately eight full-time
equivalent employees (FTE) from 131 at March 31, 2002 to 139 at March 31, 2003.
The increases in FTE were related to increasing sales activity and staffing new
offices. Occupancy expense for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002
was $257,000 and $234,000, respectively, a 10% increase. The increase in 2003 is
attributed to opening a new branch office in January 2003. Equipment expense for
the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002 was $450,000 and $476,000,
respectively, representing a decrease of 5%. The decrease was primarily due to
an increased depreciation expense in 2002 resulting from accelerating
depreciation of the core banking system which was replaced in July, 2002. Other
expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and March 31, 2002 were
$1,002,000 and $753,000, respectively, a 33% increase. Components of other
non-interest expenses that increased materially were legal and professional
fees. Legal fees were $110,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2003
compared with $47,000 for the comparable period in 2002, representing an
increase of 134%. Professional fees for the three months ended March 31, 2003
and 2002 were $121,000 and $36,000, respectively, representing an increase of
236%. Legal fees increased primarily due to ongoing litigation with our former
host systems provider while professional fee increases were primarily related to
outsourced information technology services.
INCOME TAXES
The Company reported a provision for income tax for the three months ended March
31, 2003 and 2002 of $386,000 and $433,000, respectively. Both the 2003 and 2002
provisions reflect tax accruals at the federal statutory rate, adjusted
primarily for the effect of the Company's investments in tax-exempt municipal
securities and bank owned life insurance policies and state taxes. The Vintage
Bank established a Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) subsidiary in February
2003, which provided approximately $60,000 in tax benefits during the first
quarter of 2003.
BALANCE SHEET
Total assets as of March 31, 2003 were $419,594,000 compared with $337,997,000
as of March 31, 2002, and $416,458,000 at December 31, 2002 equating to a 24%
increase during the twelve months ended March 31, 2003, and a 1% increase for
the three month ended March 31, 2003. Total deposits as of March 31, 2003 were
$370,649,000 compared with $303,629,000 as of March
11
31, 2002, and $367,803,000 at December 31, 2002 representing a 22% increase
during the twelve months then ended, and a 1% increase for the three months
ended March 31, 2003. Loans outstanding as of March 31, 2003 were $255,162,000
compared with $196,195,000 as of March 31, 2003, and $237,627,000 at December
31, 2002 equating to a 30% increase during the twelve months then ended and a 7%
increase for the three months ended March 31, 2003.
LOANS HELD FOR SALE
The Company had $14 million in purchased participations in mortgage loans as of
March 31, 2003. Loans originated or purchased and considered held for sale are
carried at the lower of cost or estimated market value in the aggregate. Net
unrealized losses are recognized through a valuation allowance by charges to
income.
BORROWINGS
The Company had a $3,000,000 unsecured loan with Union Bank of California that
was to mature in 2003, with principal and interest payments due quarterly. The
balance at March 31, 2002 was $1,615,000 and was paid in full in June 2002 with
the proceeds of the Trust Preferred Securities.
TRUST PREFERRED SECURITIES
On June 26, 2002, North Bay Statutory Trust I (Trust), a Connecticut statutory
business trust and wholly-owned subsidiary of North Bay Bancorp, issued $10
million in floating rate Cumulative Trust Preferred Securities (Securities). The
Securities bear interest a rate of Libor plus 3.45% and had an initial interest
rate of 5.34%; currently the interest rate is 4.74%; the Securities will mature
on June 26, 2032, but earlier redemption is permitted under certain
circumstances, such as changes in tax or regulatory capital rules. The principal
asset of the trust is a $10,310,000 floating rate subordinated debenture of the
Company.
The Securities, the subordinated debentures, and the common securities issued by
the Trust are redeemable in whole or in part on or after June 26, 2007, or at
any time in whole, but not in part, upon the occurrence of certain events. The
Securities are included in Tier 1 capital for regulatory capital adequacy
determination purposes, subject to certain limitations. The Company fully and
unconditionally guarantees the obligations of the Trust with respect to the
issuance of the Securities.
Subject to certain exceptions and limitations, the Company may, from time to
time, defer subordinated debenture interest payments, which would result in a
deferral of distribution payments on the Securities and, with certain
exceptions, prevent the Company from declaring or paying cash distributions on
the Company's common stock or debt securities that rank junior to the
subordinated debentures.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL ADEQUACY
The Company's liquidity is determined by the level of assets (such as cash,
Federal Funds, and unpledged investment in marketable securities) that are
readily convertible to cash to meet customer withdrawals and borrowings.
Management reviews the Company's liquidity position on a regular basis to ensure
that it is adequate to meet projected loan funding and potential withdrawal of
deposits. The Company has a comprehensive Asset/Liability Management and
Liquidity Policy, which it uses to determine adequate liquidity. As of March 31,
2003 liquid assets were 32% of total assets, compared with 36% as of March 31,
2002.
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act (FDICIA) established
ratios used to determine whether a Company is "Well Capitalized," "Adequately
Capitalized," "Undercapitalized," "Significantly Undercapitalized," or
"Critically Undercapitalized." A Well Capitalized Company has risk-based capital
of at least 10%, tier 1 risked-based capital of at least 6%, and a leverage
ratio of at least 5%. As of March 31, 2003, the Company's risk-based capital
ratio was 14.88%. The Company's tier 1 risk-based capital ratio and leverage
ratio were 13.84% and 10.78%, respectively.
As the following table indicates, the Bank currently exceeds the regulatory
capital minimum requirements. The Bank is considered "Well Capitalized"
according to regulatory guidelines.

Item 3.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates,
foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and equity prices. Although
the Company manages other risks, as in credit quality and liquidity risk, in the
normal course of business, management considers interest rate risk to be a
principal market risk. Other types of market risks, such as foreign currency
exchange rate risk, do not arise in the normal course of the Company's business
activities. The majority of the Company's interest rate risk arises from
instruments, positions and transactions entered into for purposes other than
trading. They include loans, securities available-for-sale, deposit liabilities,
short-term borrowings and long-term debt. Interest rate risk occurs when assets
and liabilities reprice at different times as interest rates change.
The Company manages interest rate risk through its Audit Committee which serves
as the Asset Liability Committee (ALCO). The ALCO monitors exposure to interest
rate risk on a quarterly basis using both a traditional gap analysis and
simulation analysis. Traditional gap analysis identifies short and long-term
interest rate positions or exposure. Simulation analysis uses an income
simulation approach to measure the change in interest income and expense under
rate shock conditions. The model considers the three major factors of (a) volume
differences, (b) repricing differences and (c) timing in its income simulation.
The model begins by disseminating data into appropriate repricing buckets based
on internally supplied algorithms (or overridden by calibration). Next, each
major asset and liability type is assigned a "multiplier" or beta to simulate
how much that particular balance sheet category type will reprice when interest
rates change. The model uses eight asset and liability multipliers consisting of
bank-specific or default multipliers. The remaining step is to simulate the
timing effect of assets and liabilities by modeling a month-by-month simulation
to estimate the change in interest income and expense over the next 12-month
period. The results are then expressed as the change in pre-tax net interest
income over a 12-month period for +1%, and +2% shocks.
Utilizing the simulation model to measure interest rate risk at March 31, 2003
and December 31, 2002 the Company is within the established exposure of a 4%
change in "return on equity" tolerance limit. There were no significant changes
in interest rate risk from the annual report on form 10K for December 31, 2002.
Item 4.
