1.) Management Representation:
The accompanying unaudited 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 of normal recurring items) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2002. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Companys annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001.
2.) Reclassifications:
Certain items contained in the 2001 financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the presentation for 2002. Such reclassifications had no effect on the net results of operations.
3.) Investment Securities:
Securities classified as held to maturity are those that management has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity. Securities held to maturity are stated at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts, with such amortization or accretion included in interest income.
Securities classified as available for sale are those that could be sold for liquidity, investment management, or similar reasons even though management has no present intentions to do so. Securities available for sale are carried at fair value using the specific identification method. Changes in the unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities are recorded net of tax effect as a component of comprehensive income.
Trading securities are principally held with the intention of selling in the near term. Trading securities are carried at fair value with changes in fair value reported in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

4.) Concentration of Credit Risk and Off Balance Sheet Risk:
The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit, and financial guarantees. Such instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized on the balance sheet. The contract or notional amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Company has in particular classes of financial instruments.
In the event of nonperformance by the other party, the Companys exposure to credit loss on these financial instruments is represented by the contract or notional amount of the instrument. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for instruments recorded on the balance sheet. The amount and nature of collateral obtained, if any, is based on managements credit evaluation.

Standby letters of credit | 611 | 485 |
Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Generally these financial arrangements have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of these commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

The following shows the amounts of contractual interest income and interest income actually reflected in income on loans accounted for on a nonaccrual basis and loans considered troubled debt restructuring as of June 30, 2002.
June 30, | June 30, | |
2002 | 2001 | |
Gross interest income that would have been recorded | ||
if the loans had been current in accordance with | ||
their original terms | $ 77 | $ 118 |
Interest income actually included in income on the loan | 36 | 61 |
A loan is placed on a nonaccrual basis whenever sufficient information is received to question the collectibility of the loan or any time legal proceedings are initiated involving a loan. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, any interest that has been accrued and not collected on the loan is charged against earnings. Cash payments received while a loan is classified as nonaccrual are recorded as a reduction to principal or reported as interest income according to managements judgement as to collectibility of principal.
Impaired loans are generally included in nonaccrual loans. Management does not individually evaluate certain smaller balance loans for impairment as such loans are evaluated on an aggregate basis. These loans include 1 - 4 family, consumer and home equity loans. Impaired loans were evaluated using the fair value of collateral as the measurement method. At June 30, 2002, there were no loans considered impaired.
As of June 30, 2002, there were $1,494 in loans not included in the above categories and not considered impaired, but which can be considered potential problem loans.
Any loans classified for regulatory purposes as loss, doubtful, substandard, or special mention that have not been disclosed above do not (i) represent or result from trends or uncertainties which management reasonably expects will materially impact future operating results, liquidity, or capital resources, or (ii) represent material credits about which management is aware of any information which causes management to have serious doubts as to the ability of such borrowers to comply with the loan repayment terms.

Management evaluates the portfolio in light of economic conditions, changes in the nature and volume of the portfolio, industry standards and other relevant factors. Specific factors considered by management in determining the amounts charged to operations include previous loan loss experience, the status of past due interest and principal payments, the quality of financial information supplied by customers and the general economic conditions present in the lending area of the Companys bank subsidiary.
5.) Legal Proceedings:
The Companys subsidiary bank was a defendant in federal district court in a class action lawsuit Frank Slentz, et al. v. Cortland Savings and Banking Company, involving purchased interests in two campgrounds.

On October 20, 1997 the judge presiding over this case filed a judgment entry dismissing all claims against the Bank without prejudice. The judgment was appealed by the plaintiffs. On March 2, 1999, the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit affirmed the decision of the district court to grant summary judgment in favor of the defendant Bank. Plaintiffs have refiled a similar suit in the Common Pleas Court of Trumbull County seeking damages of approximately $4.3 million. Based on the decision of the United States Court of Appeals and the facts of the case, management believes that a reasonable probability exists that the Bank can prevail in Common Pleas Court. While it is not feasible to predict the ultimate resolution of this case, an outcome unfavorable to the Companys bank subsidiary could have a material effect on the Companys quarterly and annual operating results for that period.< /font>
The Bank is also involved in other legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the outcome of these matters is not expected to have any material effect on the Company.

7.) Stock Repurchase Program
On January 23, 2001 the Companys Board of Directors approved a Stock Repurchase Program (the 2001 Program), which allowed the Company to repurchase up to 187,000 shares (or approximately 4.9% of the 3,815,125 shares outstanding as of January 31, 2001) of the Companys outstanding common stock. The program expired February 6, 2002. On January 22, 2002, the Companys Board of Directors approved a new program (the 2002 Program) which allows the Company to repurchase up to 193,000 shares (or approximately 4.9% of the 3,943,151 shares outstanding as of January 31, 2002) of the Companys outstanding common stock. This program will expire not later than February 6, 2003, with results depending on market conditions. Repurchased shares are designated as treasury shares, available for general corporate purposes, including possible use in connection with the Companys divi dend reinvestment program, employee benefit plans, acquisitions or other distributions.
Repurchase amounts are effected through open market transactions or in privately negotiated agreements in accordance with applicable regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Under the 2001 program based on the value of the Companys stock on January 31, 2001, the commitment to repurchase the stock over the next year was approximately $3,179. The Company repurchased 5,587 shares between January 1 and February 6, 2002, bringing the total repurchased shares to 51,321 under the 2001 Program. The Company also reissued 21,484 shares to existing shareholders under its dividend reinvestment program in January 2002.
Under the 2002 program, based on the value of the Companys stock on January 31, 2002, the commitment to repurchase the stock over the next year was $4,053. At June 30, 2002, the remaining commitment to repurchase the stock was approximately $3,825. As of June 30, 2002 the Company had repurchased 42,719 shares under the 2002 Program. The Company also reissued 12,020 shares to existing shareholders under its 2002 program.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(Dollars in thousands)
The following is managements discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations of Cortland Bancorp (the Company). The discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included elsewhere in this report.
Note Regarding Forward-looking Statements
In addition to historical information contained herein, the following discussion may contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Economic circumstances, the Companys operations and actual results could differ significantly from those discussed in any forward-looking statements. Some of the factors that could cause or contribute to such differences are changes in the economy and interest rates either nationally or in the Companys market area; increased competitive pressures or changes in either the nature or composition of competitors; changes in the legal and regulatory environment; changes in factors influencing liquidity such as expectations regarding the rate of inflation or deflation, currency exchange rates, and other factors influencing market volatility; unforeseen risks associated with other global economic and financial factors.
Liquidity
The central role of the Companys liquidity management is to (1) ensure sufficient liquid funds to meet the normal transaction requirements of its customers, (2) take advantage of market opportunities requiring flexibility and speed, and (3) provide a cushion against unforeseen liquidity needs.
Principal sources of liquidity for the Company include assets considered relatively liquid, such as interest-bearing deposits in other banks, federal funds sold, cash and due from banks, as well as cash flows from maturities and repayments of loans, investment securities and mortgage-backed securities.

CORTLAND BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARIES
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
(Dollars in thousands)
Along with its liquid assets, the Company has other sources of liquidity available to it which help to ensure that adequate funds are available as needed. These other sources include, but are not limited to, the ability to obtain deposits through the adjustment of interest rates, the purchasing of federal funds, borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati and access to the Federal Reserve Discount Window.
Cash and cash equivalents decreased compared to year-end 2001. Operating activities provided cash of $3,199 and $3,511 during the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Refer to the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for a summary of the sources and uses of cash for June 30, 2002 and 2001.
Capital Resources
The capital management function is a continuous process which consists of providing capital for both the current financial position and the anticipated future growth of the Company. Central to this process is internal equity generation, particularly through earnings retention. Internal capital generation is measured as the annualized rate of return on equity, exclusive of any appreciation or depreciation relating to available for sale securities, multiplied by the percentage of earnings retained. Internally generated capital retained by the Company measured 5.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2002, as compared to 4.1% for the like period during 2001. Overall capital (a figure which reflects earnings, dividends paid, common stock issued, treasury shares purchased, treasury shares reissued and the net change in the estimated fair value of available for sale securities) was at an annual rate of 4.9%, reflecting a growth in the estimated fair value of available for sale securities and an increase in the amount and cost of Treasury stock held.
Risk-based standards for measuring capital adequacy require banks and bank holding companies to maintain capital based on risk-adjusted assets. Categories of assets with potentially higher credit risk require more capital than assets with lower risk. In addition, banks and bank holding companies are required to maintain capital to support, on a risk-adjusted basis, certain off-balance sheet activities such as standby letters of credit and interest rate swaps.

CORTLAND BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARIES
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
(Dollars in thousands)
These standards also classify capital into two tiers, referred to as Tier 1 and Tier 2. The Companys Tier 1 capital consists of common shareholders equity (excluding any gain or loss on available for sale debt securities) less intangible assets and the net unrealized loss on equity securities with readily determinable fair values. Tier 2 capital is the allowance for loan and lease losses reduced for certain regulatory limitations. Risk based capital standards require a minimum ratio of 8% of qualifying total capital to risk-adjusted total assets with at least 4% constituting Tier 1 capital. Capital qualifying as Tier 2 capital is limited to 100% of Tier 1 capital. All banks and bank holding companies are also required to maintain a minimum leverage capital ratio (Tier 1 capital to total average assets) in the range of 3% to 4%, subject to regulatory guidelines.
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (FDICIA) required banking regulatory agencies to revise risk-based capital standards to ensure that they adequately account for the following additional risks: interest rate, concentration of credit, and nontraditional activities. Accordingly, regulators will subjectively consider an institutions exposure to declines in the economic value of its capital due to changes in interest rates in evaluating capital adequacy. The table below illustrates the Companys risk weighted capital ratios at June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001.

Assets, less intangibles and the net unrealized market value adjustment of investment securities available for sale, averaged $436,146 for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and $432,696 for the year ended December 31, 2001.
First Six Months of 2002 as Compared to First Six Months of 2001
During the first six months of 2002, net interest income after provision for loan losses increased by $706 compared to the first six months of 2001. Total interest income decreased by $1,310 or 8.7%, from the level recorded in 2001. This was accompanied by a decrease in interest expense of $2,091 or 28.5%, and a $75 increase in the provision for loan losses.
The average rate paid on interest sensitive liabilities decreased by 129 basis points year-over-year. The average balance of interest sensitive liabilities increased by $1,918 or 0.6%. Compared to the first six months of last year, average borrowings, primarily with the Federal Home Loan Bank, decreased by $1,460 while the average rate paid on borrowings decreased by 25 basis points, from 5.4% to 5.2%. Average interest bearing demand deposits increased by $2,803, while savings and money market accounts increased by $7,474 and $2,918 respectively. The average rate paid on these products decreased by 118 basis points in the aggregate. The average balance on time deposit products decreased by $9,817 as the average rate paid decreased by 152 basis points, from 5.9% to 4.4%.
Interest and dividend income on securities registered a decrease of $304, or 5.0%, during the first six months of 2002 when compared to 2001, while on a fully tax equivalent basis income on securities decreased by $152 or 2.4 %. The average invested balances increased by 3.1%, increasing by $ 6,015 over the levels of a year ago. The increase in the average balance of investment securities was accompanied by a 36 basis point decrease in the tax equivalent yield of the portfolio.
Interest and fees on loans decreased by $919 for the first six months of 2002 compared to 2001. A $2,813 decrease in the average balance of the loan portfolio, or 1.4%, was accompanied by an 81 basis point decrease in the portfolios tax equivalent yield.
Other interest income decreased by $87 from the same period a year ago. The average balance of Federal Funds sold and other money market funds increased by $3,913. The yield on federal funds decreased by 219 basis points reflecting the change in Federal Reserve policy initiated early in 2001. The yield on Federal Funds sold is anticipated to remain stable throughout the balance of 2002 as the Federal Reserve awaits convincing evidence that the economic recovery is sustainable.

Other income from all sources decreased by $69 from the same period a year ago. Gains on 14 residential mortgage loans in the secondary mortgage market decreased by $18 from the same period a year ago. Gains on securities called and gains on the sale of available for sale investment securities remained the same as year ago levels. Fees for other customer services decreased by $101, due mainly to a reduction in deposit account service charge income resulting from a restructuring of product offerings to better serve our customers. Other sources of non-recurring non-interest income increased by $50 from the same period a year ago.
Loan charge-offs during the first six months were $210 in 2002 and $99 in 2001, while the recovery of previously charged-off loans amounted to $50 in 2002 compared to $41 in 2001. A provision for loan loss of $175 was charged to operations in 2002, compared to $100 charged in 2001. At June 30, 2002, the loan loss allowance of $3,013 represented 1.5% of outstanding loans. Non accrual loans at June 30, 2002 represented 0.6% of the loan portfolio compared to 0.4% at December 31, 2001 and 0.7% a year ago.
Total other expenses in the first six months were $5,711 in 2002 compared to $5,426 in 2001, an increase of $285 or 5.3%. Full time equivalent employment during the first six months averaged 169 employees in 2002, a 1.2% increase from the 167 employed in the same quarter of 2001, as the Company expanded its branch network by one office. Salaries and benefits increased by $242 or 8.1% compared to the similar period a year ago, primarily due to the increased cost of benefits, and the opening of the aforementioned new branch in the first quarter of 2002. Excluding the new office, total expenses were up 2.7% over last year.
For the first six months of 2002, state and local taxes decreased by $51 or 16.5%. Occupancy and equipment expense remained stable, decreasing by $8 or 0.1%. All other expense categories increased by 9.4% or $102 as a group, with the Companys new office and certain other non-recurring items accounting for the increase.
Income before income tax expense amounted to $3,854 for the first six months of 2002 compared to $3,502 for the similar period of 2001. The effective tax rate for the first six months was 22.7% in 2002 compared to 24.0% in 2001, resulting in income tax expense of $873 and $840 respectively. Net income for the first six months registered $2,981 in 2002 compared to $2,662 in 2001, representing per share amounts of $0.76 in 2002 and $0.68 in 2001.

Second Quarter of 2002 as compared to Second Quarter 2001
During the second quarter of 2002 net interest income after provision for loan losses increased by $379 as compared to second quarter 2001. Average earning assets increased by 1.4% while average interest-bearing liabilities increased by 0.7%. Average loans decreased by 2.8%, while average investments increased by 4.7%.
The tax equivalent yield on earning assets decreased by 66 basis points from the same quarter a year ago. The tax equivalent yield of the investment portfolio measured 6.4% a 32 basis point decrease from the same quarter a year ago, while the loan portfolio yielded 7.8%, down 77 basis points from last years rate. Meanwhile, the rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities decreased 128 basis points compared to a year ago. The net effect of these changes was that the tax equivalent net interest margin increased to 4.4%, an increase of 39 basis points from that achieved during last years second quarter, and more in line with the Company's recent historical performance over the past ten years.
Loans net of the allowance for losses decreased by $6,012 during the period. Gross loans as a percentage of earning assets stood at 48.5% as of June 30, 2002 as compared to 50.4% on June 30, 2001. The loan to deposit ratio at the end of the first six months of 2002 was 59.5% compared to 62.0% at the end of the same period a year ago. The investment portfolio represented 60.9% of each deposit dollar, up from 58.1% a year ago.
Loan charge-offs during the second quarter were $135 in 2002 and $46 in 2001, while the recovery of previously charged-off loans amounted to $27 during the second quarter of 2002 compared to $16 in the same period of 2001.
Other income for the quarter decreased by $36 or 5.6% compared to the same period a year ago. The net gain on loans sold during the quarter amounted to $24 compared to $82 a year ago. There were $63 in gains on investment and trading securities transactions in the second quarter of 2002 compared to the $48 gain realized in 2001. Fees from other customer services decreased by $48, primarily due to the restructuring of deposit product offerings earlier in the year. Income from non-recurring items increased by $55 from the level of a year ago.

Total other expenses in the second quarter were $2,857 in 2002 and $2,680 in 2001, an increase of $177 or 6.6%. Employee salaries and benefits increased by $167 or 11.5%, reflecting a 22% increase in the cost of providing group medical coverage and payroll costs associated with staffing the Companys newest office. Occupancy and equipment expense showed an $8 decrease. Other expenses as a group increased by $18 or 2.6% compared to the same period last year.
Income before tax for the quarter increased by 9.1% to $1,989 in 2002 from the $1,823 recorded in 2001. Net income for the quarter of $1,539 represented a 10.8% increase from the $1,389 earned a year ago. Earnings per share amounted to $0.39 and $0.35 for the second quarter of 2002 and 2001 respectively.
Regulatory Matters
On March 13, 2000, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System approved the Companys application to become a financial holding company. As a financial holding company, the Company may engage in activities that are financial in nature or incidental to a financial activity, as authorized by the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 (The Financial Services Reform Act). Under the Financial Services Reform Act, the Company may continue to claim the benefits of financial holding company status as long as each depository institution that it controls remains well capitalized and well managed.
The Company is required to provide notice to the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System when it becomes aware that any depository institution controlled by the Company ceases to be well capitalized or well managed. Furthermore, current regulation specifies that prior to initiating or engaging in any new activities that are authorized for financial holding companies, the Companys insured depository institutions must be rated satisfactory or better under the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA). As of June 30, 2002, the Companys bank subsidiary was rated satisfactory for CRA purposes, and remained well capitalized and well managed, in managements opinion.

CORTLAND BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARIES
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
(Dollars in thousands)
Management considers interest rate risk to be the Companys principal source of market risk. Since December 31, 2001, short-term interest rates, as measured by U. S. Treasury securities with maturities of one year or less, have increased by 1 basis point at the one month horizon and decreased by 4 to 11 basis points in the three to twelve month horizon, reflecting a decrease in the markets concern over imminent increases by the Federal Reserve. Intermediate interest rates, as measured by U.S. Treasury securities with maturities of two to five years, have decreased by 17 to 29 basis points as investors avoided the distress in global equity markets and sought the quality and safety of the U.S. Treasury market. Long-term interest rates as measured by U.S. Treasury securities with maturities of ten to twenty years also declined reflecting diminished long-run inflation concerns.
Over the past twelve months, the Federal Reserve has decreased its target rate for overnight federal funds by 200 basis points. During the quarter ended June 30, 2002, the yield curve became slightly less steep as the difference between the yield on the ten-year Treasury and the three-month Treasury decreased to 316 basis points from the 333 basis points at December 31, 2001, with interest rates continuing to peak in the long-end of the Treasury curve.
The net effect of these changes in the level of interest rates and the shape of the yield curve have had minimal effect on the Companys risk position. When these changes are incorporated into the Companys risk analysis, simulated results for an unchanged rate environment indicate a $54 increase in net interest income for the twelve month horizon subsequent to June 30, 2002 compared to the simulated results for a similar twelve month horizon subsequent to December 31, 2001.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
(CONTINUED)
(Dollars in thousands)
The following table indicates the Companys current estimate of interest rate sensitivity based on the composition of the balance sheet at June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001. For purposes of this analysis, short term interest rates as measured by the federal funds rate and the prime lending rate are assumed to increase (decrease) gradually over the subsequent twelve month period, reaching a level 300 basis points higher (lower) than the rates in effect at June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001. Under both the rising rate scenario and the falling rate scenario, the yield curve is assumed to exhibit a parallel shift. The analysis assumes no growth in assets and liabilities and no change in asset or liability mix over the subsequent twelve month period.
Simulated Net Interest Income (NII) Scenarios | ||||||
For the Twelve Months Ending | ||||||
Net Interest Income | $ Change in NII | % Change in NII | ||||
June 30, | Dec. 31, | June 30, | Dec. 31, | June 30, | Dec. 31, | |
Changes in Interest Rates | 2003 | 2002 | 2003 | 2002 | 2003 | 2002 |
Graduated increase of +300 basis points | 17,091 | 16,848 | (635) | (824) | (3.6)% | (4.7)% |
Short term rates unchanged | 17,726 | 17,672 | ||||
Graduated decrease of -300 basis points | 17,162 | 17,266 | (564) | (406) | (3.2)% | (2.3)% |
The Companys sensitivity to a decreasing rate environment increased marginally, reflecting a slightly larger decline in the Companys expected net interest income, while sensitivity to the rising rate environment decreased with a smaller decline in net interest income expected. Overall, the Companys sensitivity to a change in interest rates is now more balanced, with simulated net interest income declining by 3.6% in the case of rising rates and 3.2% in the case of falling rates.
The level of interest rate risk indicated remains within limits that management considers acceptable. However, given that interest rate movements can be sudden and unanticipated, and are increasingly influenced by global events and circumstances beyond the purview of the Federal Reserve, no assurance can be made that interest rate movements will not impact key assumptions and relationships in a manner not presently anticipated.
