NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

CARROLLTON BANCORP

 

Quarter ended March 31, 2003

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements prepared as of and for the quarter ended March 31, 2003 reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim period presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature, but are necessary for a fair presentation. The results reflected by these

statements may not be indicative, however, of the results for the year ending December 31, 2003.

 

Note A — Comprehensive Income

 

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, REPORTING COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (“SFAS NO. 130”). SFAS No. 130 establishes requirements for the disclosure of comprehensive income in interim financial statements. Comprehensive income is defined as net income plus transactions and other occurrences which are the result of nonowner changes in equity. For the Company, nonowner equity changes are comprised of unrealized gains or losses on debt securities that will be accumulated with net income in determining comprehensive income. Presented below is a reconcilement of net income to comprehensive income indicating the components of other comprehensive income.

ITEM 2.                             MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF OPERATING RESULTS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

 

Earnings Summary

 

Carrollton Bancorp reported net income for the first quarter of 2003 of $349,000, or $0.12 on a per share basis. For the same period of 2002, net income amounted to $326,000, or $0.11 on a per share basis. Interest and fee income on loans decreased 9% as a result of reduction in the loan portfolio from loan runoff, with total interest income decreasing 13.7%, and net interest income decreasing 10.5%.  Noninterest income, excluding gains/losses on security sales, increased 15.4% compared to the first quarter of 2002.

 

Net Interest Income

 

Net interest income for the Company on a tax equivalent basis declined from $2.7M for the first quarter of 2002 to $2.4M for the first quarter of 2003.  The net yield on average earning assets declined from 3.25% in the first quarter of 2002 to 3.21% in 2003. The decrease in the net yield came principally from the contractions in the loan portflio and the decreased interest rate environment experienced in 2002, which the Company has not been able to offset completely with reductions in funding costs; and will not until the third quarter of 2003.

 

Interest income on loans decreased 9% in the first quarter of 2003 compared to the first quarter of 2002 due to the reductions in the loan portfolio and the decline in prevailing interest rates. Interest income from investment securities decreased 29% as the portfolio on average decreased 23% along with declining yields. The Company continues to emphasize commercial real estate and small business loan production and a systematic program to restructure the balance sheet to reduce interest rate risk.

 

Interest expense decreased $0.4 million  to $1.9 million in 2003.  Interest expense on deposits decreased primarily because of a branch deposit sale in 2002 and a decrease in deposit levels, primarily in higher costing deposits.  The Company has prepared for a significant opportunity to reprice 36 month certificates of deposit, originated in 2000 as they mature in the third quarter of 2003. Deposits declined on average about 13% since the first quarter of 2002, with $11 million being from certficates of deposit. As yields on loans and securities decreased in the quarter, market pressure maintained deposit rates in 2003. Due to the restructuring of the balance sheet and current liquidity position we have been able to reduce the rates on deposits as they reprice.

 

Provision for Loan Losses

 

The provision for loan losses during the first quarter of 2003 was $121,500 compared to $131,500 in 2002. The provision was determined based on management’s review and analysis of the allowance for loan losses. Nonaccrual, restructured, and delinquent loans over 90 days to total loans increased to 1.28% as of March 31, 2003 from 1.04% at March 31, 2002 partly due to the 9% reduction in loans on average compared to 2002. Net loan losses to average loans decreased from 0.03% to less than 0.01% for the same periods.

 

8



 

Noninterest Income

 

Noninterest income increased 18% in the first quarter of 2003 compared to 2002.   The increase was largely due to the expansion of ATM services with the WalMart and Sam’s Club stores and the related convenience fee income.  The components of noninterest income saw a 1% increase in service charges on deposits, a 37% decrease in brokerage commissions, and a 30% increase in ATM fee income.  Brokerage commissions decreased due to continued weakness in the equities market.  ATM fee revenue increased as a result of continued redeployment of ATMs into service, with 153 in service as of March 31, 2003.  Included in noninterest income is commission income recognized by the Brokerage subsidary of the Bank on the purchase of Bank Owned Life Insurance on a group of its key employees.  The transaction, in which the Company owns life insurance on various officers of the Company, allows for the favorable tax-exempt treatment of increases in cash surrender value to better offset rising benefit cost to the Company.

 

The sales of equity securities classified as available for sale resulted in a gain of $154,000 in the first quarter of 2003, compared to $103,000 in 2002. The transactions in both periods were undertaken to reduce the concentration of one stock in the Company’s portfolio.  The stock involved has experienced a significant increase in market price as a result of an announced acquisition by another company, and would be subject to market price reversal if the acquisition would not occur.

 

Noninterest Expenses

 

In the first quarter of 2003, noninterest expenses decreased 2% compared to the same period in 2002.  Typical increases in expenses were tempered by cost savings from the April 2002 divesture of the Company’s Liberty Road Branch

 

Income Tax Provision

 

The effective tax rate for the Company increased to 37.3% for the first quarter of 2003 compared to 28.9% for the first quarter of 2002.

 

Financial Condition

 

Summary

 

Total assets increased $0.2 million to $324.4 million at March 31, 2003 compared to $324.2 million at the end of 2002. Gross loans decreased by $10.1 million or 4.9% during the period as a result of the continued runoff of residential mortgages and home equity loans as customers refinance existing debt. Cash also decreased as the ATM network reduced cash levels after the holiday shopping period in December.

 

9



 

Most other asset categories besides investments and other assets, which includes the acquisition of Bank Owned Life Insurance, changed only marginally. Deposits declined by 0.8% to $228.4 million and borrowed funds increased $1.2 million to $59.8 million.

 

Investment Securities

 

Investment securities increased $7.2 million from December 31, 2002 to March 31, 2003. The Company continues to restructure its investment portfolio to reduce further potential for interest rate risk, while improving liquidity.

 

Loans

 

Total gross loans decreased $10.1 million or 4.9% to $195.1 million at March 31, 2003 from the end of 2002. The decrease was due to the runoff in residential mortgages and equity loans exceeding the growth in commercial real estate and small business lending. The commercial market remains very competitive, and the Company has experienced certain payoffs as a result of the customer refinancing elsewhere at a lower rate.

 

Allowance for Loan Losses

 

The allowance for loan losses increased slightly from the end of 2002.  The allowance was $3.6 million at December 31, 2002 and $3.7 million at March 31, 2003. The ratio of the allowance to total loans was 1.74% at year end 2002 and 1.89% at the end of the first quarter of 2003. The ratio of net loan losses to average loans outstanding decreased to less than 0.01% for the first quarter of 2003 from 0.13% for the year ended December 31, 2002. The ratio of nonperforming assets as a percent of period-end loans and other real estate decreased to 1.36% as of March 31, 2003 compared to 1.67% at year end 2002.

 

Funding Sources

 

Total deposits at March 31, 2003 decreased by $1.9 million to $228.4 million from December 31, 2002. Interest-bearing accounts decreased by $0.7 million while noninterest bearing accounts decreased by $1.2 million.

 

The advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank remain at $45 million, subject to the first call of $40 million in 2005. Total borrowings  increased to $59.8 million at March 31, 2003 compared to $58.6 million at the end of 2002.

 

Capital

 

For the first quarter of 2003, shareholders’ equity increased by $489,000 compared to December 31, 2002. While earnings for the quarter were in excess of dividends, the company was positively impacted by a increase in unrealized gains, net of tax, on securities classified as available for sale.  The company paid shareholders a dividend totaling $254,000 for the first three months of 2003. Net income for the first quarter of 2002 was $326,000. Shareholders’ equity to total assets remained strong at 10.54% at March 31, 2003. Tier 1 (Core) and Tier 2 (Total) capital to risk-adjusted assets ratios increased from December 31, as a result of changes in the asset mix and the net increase in unrealized gains net of tax, on securities classified as available for sale, to 14.59% and 15.38%, respectively, at March 31, 2003. The Company’s leverage ratio for the first three months of 2003 was 9.57%. These ratios exceed regulatory minimums.

Liquidity

 

At March 31, 2003, outstanding loan commitments and unused lines of credit for the Company totaled $87 million. Of this total, management places a high probability of required funding within one year on approximately $16 million. The amount remaining is unused home equity lines and other consumer lines on which management places a low probability of funding.  At March 31, 2003 the Company’s liquidity has significantly increased, as a result of the Company’s efforts to restructure its investment portfolio. The Company has restructured its investment portfolio so as to provide for funding loan growth, as well as for elimination of higher cost certificates of deposits during the third quarter of 2003.

 

Interest Rate Risk

 

Due to changes in interest rates, the level of income for a financial institution can be affected by the repricing characteristics of its assets and liabilities. At March 31, 2003, the Company is in an asset sensitive position.  Management has, and continues to take steps to reduce higher costing fixed rate funding instruments, while increasing assets that are more fluid in their repricing.  An asset sensitive position, theoretically, is favorable in a rising rate environment since more assets than liabilities will reprice in a given time frame as interest rates rise. Management works to maintain a consistent spread between yields on assets and costs of deposits and borrowings, regardless of the direction of interest rates.

 

The net yield on interest earning assets declined in the first quarter of 2003 to 3.21% from 3.47% for the year ended December 31, 2002. Due to the Company’s asset sensitive position, the recent rate declines have caused the repricing of earning assets to exceed the repricing of liabilities.  These changes have also resulted in a significant restructuring of earning assets as part of the Company’s program to reduce interest rate risk as well as to improve liquidity and net interest margins.  Certificates of deposit totalling $28.5 million, originated in 2000 will reprice during the third quarter of 2003.  To provide liquidity to fund the potential runoff of these certificates, the Company has maintained appropriate balances in short-term investments and federal funds, which has had a negative effect on the net interest margin.  The Company constantly works to manage its exposure to interest rate shifts, and minimize the effect on earnings.

 

ITEM 3 - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as those terms are defined in Exchange Act Rules 240-13-a-14(c) and 15d-14(c)) that are designed to provide material information about the Company to the chief executive officer, the chief financial officer, and others within the Company so that information may be recorded, processed, summarized, and reported as required under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  The chief executive officer and the chief financial officer have each reviewed and evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls and procedures as of a date within 90 days of the filing of this quarterly report and have each concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

 

Changes in Internal Controls

 

There have been no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect such controls subsequent to the date of the evaluations by the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer.  Neither the chief executive officer nor the chief financial officer is aware of any significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in the Company’s internal controls, so no corrective actions have been taken with respect to such internal controls.

PART II-OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1.             Legal Proceedings

 

A proper person plaintiff, Charles A. Allen, filed a negligence lawsuit against Carrollton Bank on October 24, 2002 in the Circuit Court of Baltimore City. The case was also filed against an employee of the bank, the FDIC, and an employee of the FDIC.  Counsel for the Bank, filed an answer to Mr. Allen’s complaint on December 20, 2002 to protect the Bank’s interest.

 

The FDIC removed the case to the federal court in Baltimore on December 20, 2002.  Counsel for the Bank tendered the defense of this case to the Bank’s insurance carrier on January 31, 2003.  While Mr. Allen seeks damages in excess of $50,000,000, counsel’s evaluation of the case is that it is a frivolous suit and will likely be dismissed on motion as to the Bank and its employee.

 

Counsel feels that Mr. Allen’s claim is a “covered claim” under the Bank’s Errors and Omissions insurance policy which should cover the defense and indeminification of the bank for said claim.

 

A motions hearing has been scheduled for May 16, 2003 before the Federal court upon Carrollton Bank’s motion for summary judgment.  Hopefully, this motion will be granted and the case terminated as to the Bank and its employee.

 

The Carrollton Bank has been sued along with the personal representative of a deceased customer, for damages in the Circuit Court for Anne Arundel County, Maryland.  The complaint alleges causes of action against the Bank for negilence, breach of contract, and breach of fiduciary duty and seeks damages of $132,000.  Counsel for the Bank has filed an Answer and Cross/Claim in the case to protect the Bank’s interest.  The case is presently in the discovery stage.  Counsel for the Bank will likely file a motion for summary judgment in the case to attempt to obtain an early dismissal of the case as to the Bank.  It does not appear to counsel that the Bank has any material liabilty exposure in this case.  Counsel has advised the Bank’s insurance carrier of the lawsuit.  Counsel feels the claims made in the lawsuit are “covered claims”, under the Bank’s insurance policy, for which defense costs and indemnity are available to the Bank.
