IBT BANCORP, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
for interim financial information and with the instructions to form 10-Q and
Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting only of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included. Operating results for the three month period
ended March 31, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the year ended December 31, 2003. For further information, refer to
the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the
Corporation's annual report for the year ended December 31, 2002.

NOTE 2 COMPUTATION OF EARNINGS PER SHARE

The net income per share amounts are based on the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding. The weighted average number of common
shares outstanding were 4,336,020 as of March 31, 2003, and 4,277,809 as of
March 31, 2002. The Corporation has no common stock equivalents and,
accordingly, presents only basic earnings per share.

NOTE 3 RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Financial Interpretation (FIN) No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest
Entities." This standard clarifies the application of Accounting Research
Bulletin No. 51, "Consolidated Financial Statements," and addresses
consolidation by business enterprises of variable interest entities (more
commonly known as Special Purpose Entities or SPE's). FIN No. 46 requires
existing unconsolidated variable interest entities to be consolidated by their
primary beneficiaries if the entities do not effectively disperse risk among the
parties involved. FIN No. 46 also enhances the disclosure requirements related
to variable interest entities. The Interpretation is effective for interests in
variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003. For interests in
variable interest entities created before February 1, 2003, the Interpretation
shall apply to the first interim or annual reporting period beginning after June
15, 2003. While the precise impact of adoption of FIN No. 46 on results of
operations, financial position and cash flows has not been determined, its
effect is not expected to be material.

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

The following is management's discussion and analysis of the major
factors that influenced IBT Bancorp's financial performance. This analysis
should be read in conjunction with the Corporation's 2002 annual report and with
the unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes, as set forth on pages
3 through 8 of this report.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES: The Corporation's significant accounting policies
are set forth in Note 1 of the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the
Corporation's Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2002. Of these
significant accounting policies, the Corporation considers its policies
regarding the allowance for loan losses and servicing assets to be its most
critical accounting policies.

The allowance for loan losses requires management's most subjective and complex
judgment. Changes in economic conditions can have a significant impact on the
allowance for loan losses and therefore the provision for loan losses and
results of operations. The Corporation has developed appropriate policies and
procedures for assessing the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses,
recognizing that this process requires a number of assumptions and estimates
with respect to its loan portfolio. The Corporation's assessments may be
impacted in future grace periods by changes in economic conditions, the impact
of regulatory examinations, and the discovery of information with respect to
borrowers which is not known to management at the time of the issuance of the
consolidated financial statements. For additional discussion concerning the
Corporation's allowance for loan losses and related matters, see Provision for
Loan Losses and Allowance for Loan Losses in the Corporation's Annual Report and
herein.

Servicing assets are recognized when loans are sold with servicing retained.
Servicing assets are amortized in proportion to and over the period of estimated
future net servicing income. The fair value of servicing assets is estimated by
discounting the future cash flows at estimated future current market rates for
the expected life of the loans. The Corporation uses industry prepayment
statistics in estimating the expected life of the loan. Management periodically
evaluates servicing assets for impairment. For purposes of measuring impairment,
the rights are stratified based on original term to maturity. The amount of
impairment recognized is the amount by which the servicing asset for a stratum
exceeds its fair value.

THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2003 AND 2002

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net income equaled $1.94 million for the three month period ended March
31, 2003, compared to $1.61 million for the same period in 2002. Return on
average assets, which measures the ability of the Corporation to profitably and
efficiently employ its resources, equaled 1.19% for the first three months of
2003 and 1.07% for 2002. Return on average equity, which indicates how
effectively the Corporation is able to generate earnings on shareholder invested
capital, equaled 12.42% through March 31, 2003 versus 11.31% for the same period
in 2002.

NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income equals interest income less interest expense and is
the primary source of income for IBT Bancorp. Interest income includes loan fees
of $366,000 in 2003 versus $397,000 in 2002. For analytical purposes in Tables 1
and 2, net interest income is adjusted to a "taxable equivalent" basis by adding
the income tax savings from interest on tax-exempt loans and securities, thus
making year-to-year comparisons more meaningful.

(Dollars in Thousands)

The following table sets forth the effect of volume and rate changes on
interest income and expense for the periods indicated. For the purpose of this
table, changes in interest due to volume and rate were determined as follows:

Volume Variance - change in volume multiplied by the previous year's rate.
Rate Variance - change in the fully taxable equivalent (FTE) rate
multiplied by the prior year's volume.

The change in interest due to both volume and rate has been allocated to
volume and rate changes in proportion to the relationship of the absolute dollar
amounts of the change in each.

NET INTEREST INCOME (CONTINUED)

As shown in Tables number 1 and 2, when comparing the three month period
ended March 31, 2003 to the same period in 2002, fully taxable equivalent (FTE)
net interest income increased $624,000 or 11.1%. An increase of 8.2% in average
interest earning assets provided $649,000 of FTE interest income. The majority
of this growth was funded by an 8.3% increase in interest bearing liabilities
resulting in $235,000 of additional interest expense. Overall, changes in volume
resulted in a $414,000 increase in FTE interest income. The average FTE interest
rate earned on assets declined by 0.62%, decreasing the amount of interest
earned by $773,000. The average rate paid on deposits decreased 0.83%,
decreasing interest expense by $983,000. The net change related to interest rate
earned and paid was a $210,000 increase in FTE net interest income.

The Corporation's FTE net interest yield as a percentage of average
earning assets equaled 4.21% during 2003 versus 4.10% in 2002. The 0.11%
increase in the yield was primarily a result of a shift in the funding of
earning assets from time deposits to lower cost saving and interest bearing
demand deposits. As a percentage of average earning assets, time deposits
declined 1.93% and saving and interest bearing demand deposits increased 1.66%.
The change in funding mix resulted in approximately $40,000 in additional net
interest income. Additionally the Corporation's increasing reliance on interest
bearing liabilities to fund asset growth continues to adversely impact net
interest yields. Management expects the Corporation's reliance on higher cost
deposits to fund asset growth to continue.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

The viability of any financial institution is ultimately determined by its
management of credit risk. Net loans outstanding represent 59.2% of the
Corporation's total assets and is the Corporation's single largest
concentration of risk. The allowance for loan losses is management's estimation
of potential future losses inherent in the existing loan portfolio. Factors used
to evaluate the loan portfolio, and thus to determine the current charge to
expense, include recent loan loss history, financial condition of borrowers,
amount of nonperforming and impaired loans, overall economic conditions, and
other factors.

Comparing the year to date period of March 31, 2003 to March 31, 2002,
total loans outstanding decreased 3.5%. The provision for loan losses increased
$24,000 to $212,000 in the first quarter of 2003 when compared to 2002. The
increase in the provision of loan losses resulted from an increase in
nonperforming loans of 28.2% and increased uncertainty about economic
performance over the coming months. As set forth in Table 3, loans classified as
nonperforming were $4.0 million as of March 31, 2003, a $878,000 increase over
the prior year. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans equaled
1.49% compared to 1.47% in 2002. In management's opinion, the allowance for loan
losses is adequate as of March 31, 2003.

NONINTEREST INCOME

Noninterest income consists of trust fees, deposit service charges, fees
for other financial services, gains on the sale of mortgage loans, title
insurance revenue, and other noninterest income. Income earned from these
sources increased $1.39 million during the three month period ending March 31,
2003, compared to the same period in 2002. Significant individual account
changes during this period include a $267,000 increase in income from the sale
of title insurance and related services, a $874,000 increase in gains on the
sale of residential real estate mortgage loans, and a $40,000 increase in
residential mortgage servicing rights. Included in other assets is $9.9 million
in cash value of corporate owned life insurance policies. The increase in cash
value of these policies of $117,000 and $115,000 during the quarters ended March
31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, is recorded

as other income. These policies earned an average rate of 4.7% and, due to their
preferential tax treatment, have a taxable equivalent rate of 7.4%. These
policies are placed with four different insurance companies with an S & P rating
of AA+ or better.

The Corporation has established a policy that all 15 and 30 year amortized
fixed rate mortgage loans will be sold. The calculation of gains on the sale of
mortgages excludes at least 25 basis points allocated to the value of servicing
rights on these loans. Included in other noninterest income is a $664,000 gain
from the sale of $56.6 million in mortgages during the first quarter of 2003
versus a $258,000 gain on the sale of $35.2 million in the same period in 2002.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE

Noninterest expense increased $1.45 million for the first three months of
2003 when compared to the same period in 2002. The largest component of
noninterest expense is salaries and employee benefits, which increased $602,000
or 22.6%. The Corporation purchased Benchmark Title on July 1, 2002; of the
total increase in salary and benefits for 2003, $104,000 is related to this
acquisition. The remaining increase is due to additional staffing and normal
merit and promotional salary increases, and approximately a 30% increase in
benefits due to medical and pension plan expenses.

Occupancy and furniture and equipment expenses increased $59,000 or 6.9%
in 2003. The majority of this increase is a result of increases in equipment and
building depreciation and service contract expenses. All other operating
expenses increased $792,000 or 73.6%. The majority of this increase is related
to a $17,000 increase in marketing, a $678,000 increase in charitable donations
to IBT Foundation (see "Financial Instruments with Off Balance Sheet
Arrangements"), and $22,000 in title insurance underwriting expense.

ANALYSIS OF CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION

Since December 31, 2002, total assets increased $4.50 million to $657.2
million. During the first quarter of 2003, major changes in asset mix included a
$9.7 million increase in cash, a $15.0 million decrease in fed funds sold, a
$19.1 million increase in investment securities, and a $9.9 million decrease in
net loans. Deposits during this period increased $2.9 million. Interest bearing
deposits increased $2.4 million and noninterest bearing deposits increased
$464,000, borrowed funds decreased $2.5 million, and shareholders' equity
increased $2.0 million.

LIQUIDITY

Liquidity management is designed to ensure adequate resources are
available to meet depositor and borrower discretionary demands for funds.
Liquidity is also required to fund expanding operations, investment
opportunities, and the payment of cash dividends. The primary sources of the
Corporation's liquidity are cash, cash equivalents, and investment securities
available for sale.

As of March 31, 2003, cash and cash equivalents as a percentage of total
assets equaled 7.5%, versus 8.3% as of December 31, 2002. During the first three
months of 2003, cash provided by operating activities was $388,000, financing
activity provided $151,000, and investing activities used $5.9 million. The
accumulated effect of the Corporation's operating, investing, and financing
activities was a $5.3 million decrease in cash and cash equivalents during the
first three months of 2003.





15







In addition to cash and cash equivalents, investment securities available
for sale are another source of liquidity. Securities available for sale equaled
$177.0 million as of March 31, 2003 and $157.9 million as of December 31, 2002.
The Corporation's liquidity is considered adequate by management of the
Corporation.

CAPITAL

The capital of the Corporation consists solely of common stock, surplus,
retained earnings, and accumulated other comprehensive income, and increased
approximately $2.0 million since December 31, 2002.

There are significant capital regulatory constraints placed on the
Corporation's capital. The Federal Reserve Board's current recommended minimum
tier 1 and tier 2 capital to average assets requirement is 6.0%. The
Corporation's tier 1 and tier 2 capital to average assets, which consists of
shareholder's equity plus the allowance for loan losses less unamortized
acquisition intangibles, was 10.3% at March 31, 2003.

The Federal Reserve Board has established a minimum risk based capital
standard. Under this standard, a framework has been established that assigns
risk weights to each category of on- and off-balance sheet items to arrive at
risk adjusted total assets. Regulatory capital is divided by the risk adjusted
assets with the resulting ratio compared to the minimum standard to determine
whether a bank has adequate capital. The minimum standard is 8%, of which at
least 4% must consist of equity capital net of goodwill. The following table
sets forth the percentages required under the Risk Based Capital guidelines and
the Corporation's ratios as of March 31, 2003:

PERCENTAGE OF CAPITAL TO RISK ADJUSTED ASSETS

* IBT Bancorp's secondary capital consists solely of the allowance for
loan losses. The percentage for the secondary capital under the
required column is the maximum allowed from all sources.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

The Corporation is party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk.
These instruments are entered into in the normal course of business to meet
the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments, which
include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit, involve,
to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the
amounts recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. The contract or
notional amounts of these instruments reflect the extent of involvement the
Corporation has in a particular class of financial instruments.

The Corporation's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by
the other party to the financial instruments for commitments to extend credit
and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual





16






notional amount of those instruments. The Corporation uses the same credit
policies in deciding to make these commitments as it does for extending loans
to customers.

Commitments to extend credit, which totaled $52.5 million at March 31, 2003,
are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any
condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have variable
interest rates, fixed expiration dates, or other termination clauses and may
require the payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to
expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not
necessarily represent future cash requirements.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the
Corporation to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those
guarantees are primarily issued to support private borrowing arrangements,
including commercial paper, bond financing, and similar transactions. At March
31, 2003, the Corporation had a total of $553,000 in outstanding standby
letters of credit.

Generally, these commitments to extend credit and letters of credit mature
within one year. The credit risk involved in these transactions is essentially
the same as that involved in extending loans to customers. The Corporation
evaluates each customer's credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The
amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Corporation upon the
extension of credit, is based on management's credit evaluation of the
borrower. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable,
inventory, property, plant and equipment, and other income producing
commercial properties.

The Corporation sponsors the IBT Foundation (the "Foundation"), which is a
nonprofit entity formed for the purpose of distributing charitable donations
to recipient organizations generally located in the communities serviced by
Isabella Bank and Trust. The Corporation periodically makes charitable
contributions in the form of cash transfers to the Foundation. The Foundation
is administered by members of the Corporation's Board of Directors. The assets
and transactions of the Foundation are not included in the consolidated
financial statements of IBT Bancorp, Inc. The assets of the Foundation as of
March 31, 2003 approximated $1.2 million.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

This report contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Corporation intends such
forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for
forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Reform Act of
1995, and is including this statement for purposes of these safe harbor
provisions. Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions
and describe future plans, strategies and expectations of the Corporation, are
generally identifiable by use of the words "believe," "expect," "intend,"
"anticipate," "estimate," "project," or similar expressions. The Corporation's
ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is
inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse effect on the
operations and future prospects of the Corporation and the subsidiaries include,
but are not limited to, changes in: interest rates, general economic conditions,
legislative/regulatory changes, monetary and fiscal policies of the U.S.
Government, including policies of the U.S. Treasury and the Federal Reserve
Board, the quality or composition of the loan or investment portfolios, demand
for loan products, deposit flows, competition, demand for financial services in
the Corporation's market area, and accounting principles, policies and
guidelines. These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating
forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such
statements. Further information concerning the Corporation and its business,
including additional factors that could materially affect the Corporation's
financial results, is included in the Corporation's filings with the Securities
and Exchange Commission.

ITEM 3 - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Corporation's primary market risks are interest rate risk and, to a lesser
extent, liquidity risk. The Corporation has no foreign exchange risk, holds
limited loans outstanding to oil and gas concerns, and holds no trading account
assets. Any changes in foreign exchange rates or commodity prices would have an
insignificant impact, if any, on the Corporation's interest income and cash
flows.

Interest rate risk ("IRR") is the exposure to the Corporation's net interest
income, its primary source of income, to changes in interest rates. IRR results
from the difference in the maturity or repricing frequency of a financial
institution's interest earning assets and its interest bearing liabilities.
Interest rate risk is the fundamental method in which financial institutions
earn income and create shareholder value. Excessive exposure to interest rate
risk could pose a significant risk to the Corporation's earnings and capital.

The Federal Reserve, the Corporation's primary Federal regulator, has adopted a
policy requiring the Board of Directors and senior management to effectively
manage the various risks that can have a material impact on the safety and
soundness of the Corporation. The risks include credit, interest rate,
liquidity, operational, and reputational. The Corporation has policies,
procedures and internal controls for measuring and managing these risks.
Specifically, the IRR policy and procedures include defining acceptable types
and terms of investments and funding sources, liquidity requirements, limits on
investments in long term assets, limiting the mismatch in repricing opportunity
of assets and liabilities, and the frequency of measuring and reporting to the
Board of Directors.



18







The Corporation uses several techniques to manage interest rate risk. The first
method is gap analysis. Gap analysis measures the cash flows and/or the earliest
repricing of the Corporation's interest bearing assets and liabilities. This
analysis is useful for measuring trends in the repricing characteristics of the
balance sheet. Significant assumptions are required in this process because of
the imbedded repricing options contained in assets and liabilities. A
substantial portion of the Corporation's assets are invested in loans and
mortgage backed securities. These assets have imbedded options that allow the
borrower to repay the balance prior to maturity without penalty. The amount of
prepayments is dependent upon many factors, including the interest rate of a
given loan in comparison to the current interest rates, for residential
mortgages the level of sales of used homes, and the overall availability of
credit in the market place. Generally, a decrease in interest rates will result
in an increase in the Corporation's cash flows from these assets. Investment
securities, other than those that are callable, do not have any significant
imbedded options. Saving and checking deposits may generally be withdrawn on
request without prior notice. The timing of cash flow from these deposits is
estimated based on historical experience. Time deposits have penalties which
discourage early withdrawals.

The second technique used in the management of interest rate risk is to combine
the projected cash flows and repricing characteristics generated by the gap
analysis and the interest rates associated with those cash flows and projected
future interest income. By changing the amount and timing of the cash flows and
the repricing interest rates of those cash flows, the Corporation can project
the effect of changing interest rates on its interest income.

The following table provides information about the Corporation's assets and
liabilities that are sensitive to changes in interest rates as of March 31,
2003. The Corporation has no interest rate swaps, futures contracts, or other
derivative financial options. The principal amounts of assets and time deposits
maturing were calculated based on the contractual maturity dates. Savings and
NOW accounts are based on management's estimate of their future cash flows.
