NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE A BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

Pacific Northwest Bancorp is a bank holding company incorporated in the state of Washington.  Through its commercial banking subsidiary, Pacific Northwest Bank, a wide range of financial services is offered to businesses and individuals in its market area including investment products available through its subsidiary, Pacific Northwest Financial Services, Inc. and insurance products available through its subsidiary, Pacific Northwest Insurance Agency, Inc.  Pacific Northwest Bank operates 58 Financial Centers in the Pacific Northwest, including the metropolitan areas of Seattle and Bellevue, Washington, and Portland, Oregon, and other areas of western and central Washington.

 

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Pacific Northwest Bancorp and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively PNWB).  As of June 30, 2003, Pacific Northwest Bancorp’s wholly owned subsidiaries were Pacific Northwest Bank, InterWest Capital Trust I and Pacific Northwest Statutory Trust I.  All material inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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 consolidated 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 for interim financial information and with the instructions to 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 for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation are reflected in the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements.  The consolidated statements of income for the three and six-month 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 filed on the Form 10-K for the most recent annual period ended December 31, 2002.

 

NOTE B RECLASSIFICATIONS

 

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior financial statements to conform to current presentation. The effects of the reclassifications are not considered material.

 

NOTE C BUSINESS COMBINATION

 

On May 20, 2003, PNWB announced that it had signed an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization with Wells Fargo & Company, a Delaware corporation (“Wells Fargo”). Under the terms of the agreement, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo will be merged with and into PNWB. PNWB will survive the merger and become a wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo. Each share of PNWB common stock outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the merger will be converted and exchanged into Wells Fargo common stock with a value of $35.00, based on the average of the closing prices of Wells Fargo common stock on the New York Stock Exchange as reported by Bloomberg, L.P. for each of the 20 consecutive trading days prior to the special meeting of PNWB’s shareholders to vote on the merger. The agreement with Wells Fargo limits certain lending and investing activities of PNWB without the prior approval of Wells Fargo and requires PNWB to pay Wells

Fargo a $30 million termination fee if the merger is not completed by reason of PNWB having received a superior competing acquisition proposal, and the failure of PNWB’s board of directors to recommend approval or call a special meeting of PNWB shareholders to vote on the merger prior to December 15, 2003, as required by the agreement.

 

The merger is subject to several conditions, including receipt of applicable regulatory approvals and approval by shareholders of PNWB. Management expects the merger to close by the end of the third quarter 2003.

 

 

NOTE D STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

 

PNWB accounts for stock-based employee compensation plan using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principle Board Opinion (APB) No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.”   No stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in net income, as all stock options are granted at exercise prices not less than the fair value of common stock on the date of grant.  PNWB has elected to apply the disclosure only provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.”  The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if PNWB had applied the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 148 to stock-based employee compensation.

NOTE E  NET INCOME PER SHARE

 

Basic net income per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted net income per share is calculated by dividing net income by diluted weighted average shares outstanding, which includes common stock equivalent shares outstanding using the treasury stock method, unless such shares are anti-dilutive. Common stock equivalents include shares issuable upon exercise of stock options.  Unallocated shares relating to the employee stock ownership plan debt obligation are deducted in the calculation of weighted average shares outstanding.

NOTE F BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION

 

Between the period August 31, 1996 and October 1999, PNWB acquired six commercial banking institutions. Subsequent to the acquisitions of Pacific Northwest Bank, First National Bank of Port Orchard, Pioneer Bank and Kittitas Valley Bank in 1998, PNWB was managed at the individual subsidiary bank level.  Each subsidiary bank had a Board of Directors and an executive management team that was responsible for the operation and performance of the respective subsidiary bank. During the year ended December 31, 2000, PNWB merged the subsidiary banks into one commercial bank.  In addition, PNWB consolidated its executive management functions and implemented a new organizational structure, while converting separate banking systems into a single operating system.

 

On November 13, 2002, PNWB completed the acquisition of Bank of the Northwest (BKNW) and merged BKNW into its commercial bank subsidiary, Pacific Northwest Bank.  BKNW operated five branch offices in the metropolitan Portland market area. On December 9, 2002, PNWB successfully completed the information systems and data conversion of BKNW and all of the five BKNW branches were renamed Pacific Northwest Bank.

 

As a result of these organizational and system changes, the financial information that is used by the chief operating decision maker in allocating resources and assessing performance is only provided for one reportable segment for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002.

 

NOTE G  SECURITIES PLEDGED UNDER AGREEMENTS TO REPURCHASE

 

PNWB has sold certain securities of the U.S. government and its agencies and other approved investments under agreements to repurchase.  The securities sold were classified as securities available for sale with an estimated fair value of $73.1 million and $82.2 million as of June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively.

NOTE H  OFF BALANCE SHEET LOAN COMMITTMENTS

 

As of June 30, 2003, PNWB had approximately $197.0 million in real estate loan commitments to extend credit.  Other loan commitments to extend credit, which include commercial and consumer lines of credit, totaled approximately $539.8 million as of June 30, 2003.  Outstanding commitments to extend credit under standby letters of credit and commercial letters of credit totaled approximately $63.4 million and $16.2 million, respectively, as of June 30, 2003.

 

NOTE I  ACCOUNTING CHANGES

 

In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Interpretation No. 46 (“FIN 46”), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities. The Interpretation provides guidance on how to identify a variable interest and determine when the assets, liabilities, noncontrolling interests and results of operations of a variable interest entity should be consolidated by the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is the enterprise that will absorb a majority of the variable interest entity’s expected losses or receive a majority of the expected residual returns as a result of holding variable interests. The recognition and measurement provisions of this Interpretation apply at inception to any variable interest entities formed after January 31, 2003, and become effective for existing variable interest entities on the first interim or annual reporting period beginning after June 15, 2003. However, qualifying special-purpose entities defined under SFAS No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities, are not required to be consolidated in the financial statements of a transferor. The Company adopted the provisions of FIN 46 for variable interest entities formed on or after February 1, 2003, which did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company will adopt the provisions of FIN 46 for existing variable interest entities on July 1, 2003, which will result in the deconsolidation of InterWest Capital Trust I and Pacific Northwest Statutory Trust I.

 

On May 15, 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150 (“FAS 150”), Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity. FAS 150 requires that certain financial instruments, which under previous guidance could be accounted for as equity, be classified as liabilities in statements of financial position. FAS 150 represents a significant change in practice in accounting for a number of financial instruments, including mandatorily redeemable equity instruments and certain equity derivatives that frequently are used in connection with share repurchase programs. FAS 150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and is otherwise effective for the Company at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. Adoption of the Statement did not result in an impact on the Company’s statement of financial position or results of operations.

OVERVIEW

 

Headquartered in Seattle, Washington, Pacific Northwest Bancorp is a Washington based bank holding company providing financial services through its commercial banking subsidiary, Pacific Northwest Bank.  Pacific Northwest Bank operates 58 Financial Centers in the Pacific Northwest, including the metropolitan areas of Seattle and Bellevue, Washington, and Portland, Oregon, and other areas of western and central Washington.

PNWB is currently involved in a pending merger with Wells Fargo & Company (“Wells Fargo”) (see details in footnote C). The merger is subject to several conditions, including receipt of applicable regulatory approvals and approval by PNWB shareholders, as well as a $30 million termination fee if the merger is not finalized for reasons defined in the merger agreement. Management expects the merger to close late in the third quarter of 2003.

Net Interest Income |PNWB’s net income is significantly affected by changes in net interest income, which is the interest income received on loans receivable and other interest-earning assets less the interest expense on deposits and borrowings. PNWB’s net interest income is sensitive to changes in interest rates.  Net interest income before the provision for losses on loans was $25.3 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003 and $27.0 million for the same period in 2002. Net interest income before the provision for losses on loans was $52.7 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003 and $54.4 million for the same period in 2002.

 

Net interest margin, which is net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets, was 3.59 percent for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003, compared to 4.12 percent for the three-month period ended June 30, 2002. Net interest margin was 3.74 percent and 4.19 for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Net interest margin decreased as a result of PNWB’s asset sensitive position in the low and

 

13



 

decreasing interest rate environment during the past year. The decrease in net interest margin in 2003 is due primarily to accelerated prepayments on mortgage backed investment securities and single-family residential mortgage loans. In addition, new loans have been added to the loan portfolio at lower rates that were not fully offset by deposit re-pricing.

 

Interest income was $40.7 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003, compared to $45.0 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2002. This decrease was primarily due to lower yields earned on loans and securities, partially offset by increases in volume in the loan portfolio during the second quarter of 2003. The yield on interest-earning assets was 5.76 percent and 6.86 percent for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Interest income was $83.7 million and $89.9 million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The yield on interest-earning assets was 5.94 percent for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003 and 6.93 percent for the six-month period ended June 30, 2002.

 

Interest expense was $15.3 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003, compared to $18.0 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2002.  Interest expense was $31.1 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003 compared to $35.5 million for the same period in 2002. The decrease in interest expense was primarily due to a decrease in the cost of funds as a result of reductions of market interest rates and management’s restructuring of the funding base. This included an increase in average non-interest bearing deposits of $96 million. The average balances of lower-costing deposits increased while the higher-costing borrowings decreased from the first quarter of 2003. The cost of funds was 2.47 percent for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003, compared to 3.03 percent for the same period in 2002.  The cost of funds was 2.51 percent and 3.08 percent for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 respectively.

Provision for losses on loans | The provision for losses on loans was $1.3 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003 compared to $1.7 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2002. The provision for losses on loans was $2.5 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003 compared to $3.4 million for the same

period in 2002. The level of the provision was based on management’s evaluation of the current Pacific Northwest regional economy and its resulting impact on the loan portfolio. The level of provision for the three and six-month periods was lower than the same periods of 2002 as a result of our quarterly assessment of the risk inherent within our loan portfolio in consideration with the level of the allowance for losses on loans. Management continues to assess the level of the provision for loan losses based on the known and inherent risk characteristics in the loan portfolio.  These risk characteristics include changes in the size and composition of the loan portfolio, delinquency levels, actual loan loss experience, detailed analysis of individual loans for which full collectibility may not be assured, and current economic conditions in PNWB’s market area. 

 

Non-interest Income | Non-interest income was $5.7 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003, compared to $5.4 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2002.  The increase was primarily due to higher service fees, a gain on sale of investment securities, partially offset by a decrease in gains on sale of loans. Non-interest income was $11.2 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003 and $9.9 million for the same period in 2002. This increase was primarily due to an increase of $1.5 million increase in service fees and an increase of $623,000 in bank owned life insurance income from the same period last year.

 

Service fees increased to $4.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 compared to $3.3 million for the same quarter in 2002 primarily as a result of the Bank of the Northwest acquisition completed November 13, 2002.  Service fees were $8.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003 compared to $6.5 million for the same period in 2002.  The majority of the increase was seen in deposit and loan service fees.

 

During the second quarter of 2002, PNWB implemented the financial strategy to purchase $50.0 million of BOLI on certain key employees. PNWB is the beneficiary of these BOLI contracts and the proceeds from the death benefit payments will be used to offset the cost of employee benefits. In addition, PNWB added another $5.3 million of BOLI through the BKNW acquisition in November 2002. BOLI income was $538,000 for the second quarter of 2003, compared to $499,000 for the same period in 2002. BOLI income was $1.1 million for the first half of 2003 compared to $499,000 for the same period in 2002. The investment in BOLI increased to $58.1 million as of June 30, 2003 from $50.5 million one year ago.

 

Gain on sale of securities available for sale increased to $247,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 compared to $40,000 for the same quarter in 2002. Gain on sale of securities available for sale was $245,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003 compared to $40,000 for the same period in 2002.

 

The increase in non-interest income was partially offset by a decrease in gain on sale of loans. This decrease was due to the outsourcing of the residential mortgage lending function beginning in the first quarter of 2003. This was done to reduce mortgage banking business risk and improve operational efficiencies.  As a result, PNWB expects gain on sale of loans to decrease further for the remainder of 2003.

 

Non-interest Expense | Non-interest expense was $18.0 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003, compared to $18.7 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2002. Non-interest expense was $37.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003 compared to $37.3 million for the same period one year ago. The decrease from prior period is due partially to the reversal of an accrual for $619,000 related to the termination of an employment contract that did not require cash payment.

 

General and administrative expenses were $3.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2003, compared to $4.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2002. General and administrative expenses were $8.0 million for the first half of 2003 compared to $8.6 million for the same period in 2002. The decrease from the second quarter of 2002 was primarily due to lower mortgage banking related expenses and management’s initiatives for cost reductions.

 

16



 

The efficiency ratio is computed by dividing total operating expenses by net interest income and non-interest income.  An increase in the efficiency ratio indicates that more resources are being utililized to generate the same volume of income while a decrease would indicate a more efficient allocation of resources.  The efficiency ratio for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003 was 58.1 percent, compared to 57.8 percent for the three-month period ended June 30, 2002.  The efficiency ratio for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003 was 57.9 percent compared to 58.0 percent for the six-month period ended June 30, 2002.

 

Income Tax Expense | Income tax expense was $3.5 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003, compared to $4.1 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2002.  Income tax expense was $7.8 million and $8.1 million for the six-month periods June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The effective tax rate was 30.0 percent and 34.0 percent for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively.  The effective tax rate was 31.9 percent and 34.5 percent for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 respectively. The decrease in income tax expense from prior periods was due primarily to a decrease in estimated taxable income in 2003.

 

REVIEW OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

 

PNWB’s consolidated assets were $3.1 billion as of June 30, 2003, and December 31, 2002.

 

Securities | As of June 30, 2003, PNWB had $738.3 million of securities available for sale, compared to $788.5 million as of December 31, 2002.

 

PNWB maintains liquidity in accordance with an internal liquidity policy.  Liquidity levels may be increased or decreased depending upon the yields on investment alternatives, management’s judgment as to the attractiveness of the yields then available in relation to other opportunities, and management’s expectation of the yield that will be available in the future.  Management’s projections as to the short-term demand for funds to be used for loan originations and other activities can also affect liquidity levels.

 

Securities classified as available for sale are reported at estimated fair value, with unrealized gains (net of income taxes) reported in accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss), a separate component of shareholders’ equity. Periodically management assesses the gross unrealized losses in the securities portfolio and determines whether the losses were temporary or other than temporary. During this process, PNWB considers (1) recent performance of the security, (2) the credit rating of the security, (3) the amount of credit support available for the security, if any, (4) circumstances contributing to the decline in value, (5) the length of time and extent to which the fair value has been less than cost or carrying value, and (6) the intent and ability of PWNB to retain the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for anticipated recovery. In consideration of the above factors, management deems the gross unrealized losses in PNWB’s securities portfolio as of June 30, 2003 to be temporary.

 

Loans Held for Sale | Loans held for sale totaled $13.8 million as of June 30, 2003 compared to $25.6 million as of December 31, 2002.  Loans held for sale are primarily construction loans, single-family mortgage loans, and loans originated under the Small Business Administration program.  Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair value in aggregate.  Loans held for sale are typically sold to other financial institutions. The significant decrease from December 31, 2002 is due to loans sold during the first half of 2003 and the fact that the mortgage banking function is now outsourced.

 

Net Loans Receivable | Net loans receivable were $2.02 billion as of June 30, 2003, compared to $2.00 billion as of December 31, 2002.  We continue to experience moderate growth in the commercial loan portfolio despite the sluggish economic conditions in our market area.

 

17



 

Total commercial loans outstanding increased to $1.51 billion or 73.6 percent of the loan portfolio as of June 30, 2003, compared to $1.39 billion or 68.3 percent as of December 31, 2002. The growth since December 31, 2002 in the commercial loan portfolio was primarily in the commercial real estate loan category.

 

Single-family residential mortgage loans outstanding decreased to $173.3 million as of June 30, 2003 compared to $231.2 million as of December 31, 2002.  The decrease was primarily due to early payoffs associated with the current interest rate environment and management’s decision not to originate and retain single-family mortgage loans in our loan portfolio.

Non-performing Assets | Loans are generally placed on non-accrual when they become past due over 90 days, or 120 days if they are single-family mortgage loans, or when the collection of interest or principal is considered unlikely.  Loans past due over 90 or 120 days that are not on non-accrual status must be well-secured by tangible collateral and in the process of collection.  PNWB does not return a loan to accrual status until it is brought current with respect to both principal and interest and future principal payments are no longer in doubt.  When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, any previously accrued and uncollected interest is reversed from interest income.  PNWB performs a review of its loan portfolio for weaknesses in credit quality on an ongoing basis to identify problem loans.  This review results in internal loan classifications based on risk characteristics and loan performance.  The overall objective of this review process is to identify trends in the credit quality of the loan portfolio and to determine the level of loss exposure to evaluate the need for an adjustment to the allowance for losses on loans.

 

Non-accrual loans totaled $19.0 million as of June 30, 2003 compared to $11.9 million as of December 31, 2002. Other real estate was $6.3 million as of June 30, 2003 compared to $7.2 million as of December 31, 2002. Total non-performing assets, including non-accrual loans and other real estate, totaled $25.3 million or 0.82 percent of consolidated assets as of June 30, 2003, compared to $19.1 million or 0.61 percent of consolidated assets as of December 31, 2002.  The increase in non-accrual loans from December 31, 2002 is due primarily to one borrower with loan balances of approximately $8.5 million at June 30, 2003.

Allowance for Losses on Loans | The allowance for losses on loans was $27.4 million or 1.34 percent of loans receivable as of June 30, 2003, compared to $26.9 million or 1.33 percent of loans receivable as of December 31, 2002.  Net loan charge-offs were $2.0 million or 0.20 percent (annualized) of the average balance of loans outstanding for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003, compared to $1.6 million or 0.17 percent (annualized) of the average balance of loans outstanding for the six-month period ended June 30, 2002.

 

When available information confirms that specific loans, or portions thereof, are uncollectible, these amounts are charged off against the allowance for losses on loans. The existence of some or all of the following criteria will generally confirm that a loss has been incurred: the loan is significantly delinquent and the borrower has not evidenced the ability or intent to bring the loan current; there is no recourse to the borrower, or if there is recourse, the borrower has insufficient assets to pay the debt; the fair value of the loan collateral is significantly below the current loan balance, and there is little or no near-term prospect for improvement.  A provision for losses on loans, which is a charge against income, is added to the allowance for losses on loans based on ongoing assessments of credit risk in the loan portfolio.

 

The allowance for losses on loans is maintained at an amount to sufficiently provide for estimated losses based on evaluating known and inherent risks in the loan portfolio.  Management analyzes certain factors underlying the quality of the loan portfolio.  These factors include changes in the size and composition of the loan portfolio, delinquency levels, actual loan loss experience, detailed analysis of individual loans for which full collectibility may not be assured, and current economic conditions in PNWB’s market area.  Management has assessed the impact of the Pacific Northwest regional economy on the credit risk in the loan portfolio.  To date, delinquency trends and classified loan levels relative to comparable periods do not indicate any material deterioration in the loan portfolio.  Management continues to closely monitor PNWB’s credit quality and focus on identifying potential problem credits and any loss exposure in a timely manner.  Industry concentration and related limits will also be subject to on-going assessment.

 

PNWB has established its allowance for losses on loans in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.  However, there can be no assurance that in the future, regulators, when reviewing PNWB’s loan portfolio, will not request PNWB to increase its allowance for losses on loans, thereby affecting

 

19



 

PNWB’s financial condition and results of operations.  Substantial increases may be necessary should the quality of loans deteriorate as a result of the factors discussed above.

 

PNWB’s allowance for losses on loans is allocated to specific loans, certain loan categories based on the relative risk characteristics, asset classifications and actual loss experience of the loan portfolio.  Although the allocation of the allowance for losses on loans is an important credit management tool, the entire allowance for losses on loans is available for the entire loan portfolio.  Management reviewed the allocations in the various loan categories and believes the allowance for losses on loans was adequate as of June 30, 2003.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets | Goodwill and other intangible assets totaled $77.4 million or 2.50 percent of total assets and 28.2 percent of total shareholder’s equity as of June 30, 2003. Goodwill and other intangible assets totaled $78.2 million or 2.50 percent of total assets and 29.9 percent of total shareholder’s equity as of December 31, 2002. The decrease in goodwill and other intangible assets is due to amortization of mortgage servicing intangibles and core deposit intangibles.

 

Goodwill arising from acquisitions represents the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of net assets acquired. Prior to 2002, goodwill was amortized using the straight-line method over periods not exceeding twenty years.  Effective January 1, 2002, upon adoption of SFAS No. 142 “Accounting for Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”, PNWB no longer amortizes its goodwill. PNWB reviews its goodwill for impairment annually or more frequently if impairment indicators arise.  PNWB’s annual goodwill impairment evaluation in the fourth quarter of 2002 indicated no impairment of goodwill.

 

Other intangible assets consist of core deposit intangibles and mortgage servicing rights, and are amortized using straight-line and accelerated methods over periods not exceeding twenty years.  Mortgage servicing rights are capitalized when acquired either through the purchase or origination of loans that are subsequently sold or securitized with the servicing rights retained.  The estimated fair value of mortgage servicing rights at the date of the sale of loans is determined based on the discounted present value of expected future cash flows using key assumptions for servicing income and costs and prepayment rates on the underlying loans. The estimated fair value is periodically evaluated for impairment by comparing actual cash flows and estimated future cash flows from the servicing assets to those estimated at the time servicing assets were originated.  Mortgage servicing rights are amortized as an offset to service fees in proportion to and over the period of estimated net servicing income.

Deposits | PNWB offers various types of deposit accounts, including checking accounts, savings accounts, money market accounts and certificate of deposit accounts.  Deposit accounts vary as to terms; the principal differences are the minimum balance required, the time period the funds must remain on deposit, the interest rate, and the deposit or withdrawal option.  PNWB relies on generating deposits through a marketing strategy that employs a sales staff responsible for retaining and generating new customer relationships.  We emphasize developing total client relationships in order to increase our core deposit base.

 

Non-interest-bearing deposits were $395.5 million as of June 30, 2003 compared to $345.6 million as of December 31, 2002.  Non-interest-bearing deposits represented 19.4 percent and 16.8 percent of total deposits as of June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively.  Interest-bearing transaction accounts (which include interest-bearing checking, money market and savings accounts) totaled $859.4 million as of June 30, 2003 compared to $904.0 million as of December 31, 2002.  Interest-bearing transaction accounts represented 42.0 percent of total deposits as of June 30, 2003, compared to 44.0 percent as of December 31, 2002.

 

Certificates of deposit totaled $790.2 million as of June 30, 2003, compared to $804.7 million as of December 31, 2002.  Certificates of deposit represented 38.6 percent of total deposits as of June 30, 2003, compared to 39.2 percent as of December 31, 2002. The increase in the core deposit balances (which include non-interest bearing and non-interest bearing transactional accounts) and the decrease in certificate of deposit balance reflect management’s efforts to restructure the deposit portfolio as a means to reduce the costs of funds.

FHLB Advances and Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase | PNWB borrows through advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) and securities sold under agreements to repurchase with third parties. These borrowing sources decreased to $687.4 million as of June 30, 2003 compared to $730.3 million as of December 31, 2002.  With less funds invested in available for sale securities due to the low return, more cash is available, thus requiring less need for these types of borrowings.

 

The FHLB provides credit for member financial institutions.  As members, financial institutions are required to own capital stock in the FHLB, and are authorized to apply for advances on the security of such stock, certain home mortgages and other assets (principally securities that are obligations of, or guaranteed by, the United States).  Advances are made to member financial institutions pursuant to several different programs.  These

 

21



 

programs are generally designed to meet the financial institution’s need while still reflecting market terms and conditions.  PNWB uses advances from the FHLB to supplement funds available to lend and to meet liquidity guidelines.  Interest rates on these advances vary in response to general economic conditions.  PNWB also uses the securities market for borrowings by utilizing its securities available for sale as collateral. These borrowings are collateralized by securities with an estimated fair value exceeding the face value of the borrowings.

 

Other borrowings | Other borrowings were $10.1 million as of June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002.  The balances were comprised primarily of notes from another financial institution. This borrowing qualifies as Tier II capital under the capital guidelines of the Federal Reserve Board.

 

Guaranteed Preferred Beneficial Interests in Subordinated Debt  | On September 26, 2002, $12 million of Capital Securities were issued by Pacific Northwest Statutory Trust I (the Trust).  The Trust is a business trust organized in September 2002, and Bancorp owns 100 percent of the common equity of the Trust.  The proceeds of the offering were invested by the Trust in junior subordinated debentures of Pacific Northwest Bancorp.  The debentures held by the Trust are the sole assets of Pacific Northwest Statutory Trust I.  The Capital Securities are subject to mandatory redemption, in whole or in part, upon repayment of the debentures.  The debentures will not mature earlier than September 26, 2007, and not later than September 26, 2012. The interest rate on the Capital Securities is based upon three-month LIBOR plus 3.55 percent and adjusts on a quarterly basis.  As of June 30, 2003, the interest rate on the Capital Securities was 4.83 percent.  Pacific Northwest Bancorp entered into agreements which, taken collectively, fully and unconditionally guarantee the capital securities subject to the terms of each of the guarantees.  Upon the adoption of FASB Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin (ARB) No. 51, on July 1, 2003, the Trusts will be deconsolidated from the financial statements of the Company. Adoption of the provision FIN 46 will not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

On November 15, 1999, $40 million of 9.875 percent Capital Securities were issued by InterWest Capital Trust I (the Trust I).  The Trust I is a business trust organized in November 1999, and Bancorp owns 100 percent of the common equity of the Trust I.  The proceeds of the offering were invested by the Trust I in junior subordinated debentures of Bancorp.  The debentures held by the Trust I are the sole assets of the Trust I. At the Bancorp’s option, the debentures will not mature earlier than November 15, 2009, and not later than November 15, 2029.  After November 15, 2019, the debentures can be redeemed at par value. Distributions on the capital securities issued by the Trust I are payable semiannually at 9.875 percent per annum, which is equal to the interest rate being earned by the Trust I on the debentures it held.  The capital securities are subject to mandatory redemption, in whole or in part, upon repayment of the debentures. Bancorp has entered into agreements which, taken collectively, fully and unconditionally guarantee the capital securities subject to the terms of each of the guarantees. The capital securities qualify as Tier I capital under the capital guidelines of the Federal Reserve Board.  Pacific Northwest Bancorp purchased $4.0 million of the capital securities (guaranteed subordinated debt) during 2002 and the $4.0 million capital securities were subsequently reissued at a premium of $372,500 during the first quarter of 2003.  The premium will be amortized using the straight-line method through November 9, 2009. Upon the adoption of FASB Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin (ARB) No. 51, on July 1, 2003, the Trusts will be deconsolidated from the financial statements of the Company. Adoption of the provision FIN 46 will not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

Shareholders’ Equity | PNWB is committed to managing capital for maximum shareholder benefit and maintaining strong protection for depositors and creditors.  PNWB manages various capital levels at both the holding company and subsidiary bank level to maintain adequate capital ratios and levels in accordance with external regulations and capital guidelines established by the Board of Directors.

On January 28, 2003, the Board of Directors of Pacific Northwest Bancorp authorized the purchase of up to five percent of Pacific Northwest Bancorp’s outstanding shares of common stock over the next twelve months. As of June 30, 2003 PNWB repurchased, on the open market, a total of 104,291 shares at an average price of $27.56.

 

PNWB’s total shareholders’ equity was $273.9 million as of June 30, 2003, compared to $261.6 million as of December 31, 2002.  The increase in shareholders’ equity during the first six months of 2003 was primarily due to net income of $16.6 million, stock issued under stock option plans of $5.9 million, a tax deduction on stock option exercises of $1.6 million, offset by the decrease in the estimated fair value of securities available for sale of $4.3 million (net of tax), cash dividends declared of $0.28 per share or $4.8 million, and repurchases of common stock totaling $2.8 million.  Book value per share was $16.03 as of June 30, 2003, compared to $15.57 as of December 31, 2002.

 

SUPERVISION AND REGULATION

 

Pacific Northwest Bancorp is a registered bank holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 (BHCA) and is subject to the supervision of, and regulation by, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System  (FRB).  Under the BHCA, Pacific Northwest Bancorp files with the FRB annual reports of operations and such additional information as the FRB may require.  Under the BHCA, a bank holding company may engage in banking, managing or controlling banks, furnishing or performing services for banks it controls, and conducting activities that the FRB has determined to be closely related to banking.

 

Pacific Northwest Bank is a member of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), and as such, is subject to examination thereby.  Pacific Northwest Bank is a state-chartered commercial bank subject to regulation and supervision by the Washington Department of Financial Institutions, Division of Banks.  In practice, the primary regulator makes regular examinations of the subsidiary bank subject to its regulatory review or participates in joint examinations with other regulators.  Areas subject to regulation by federal or state authorities include the allowance for losses on loans, investments, loans, mergers and acquisitions, issuance of securities, payment of dividends, establishment of branches and other aspects of operations.

 

The enforcement powers available to banking regulators are substantial and include, among other things, the ability to assess civil monetary penalties, to issue cease-and-desist or removal orders and to initiate injunctive actions against banking organizations and institution-affiliated parties, as defined.  In general, enforcement actions must be initiated for violations of laws and regulations and unsafe or unsound practices. Other actions, or inactions, may provide the basis for enforcement action, including misleading or untimely reports filed with regulatory authorities.  Applicable law also requires public disclosure of final enforcement actions.

 

Pacific Northwest Bancorp and Pacific Northwest Bank are subject to risk-based capital guidelines requiring minimum capital levels based on the credit risk of assets.  Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a material effect on PNWB’s consolidated financial statements.  Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, Pacific Northwest Bancorp and Pacific Northwest Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices.  Capital classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.

 

23



 

The regulations define the relevant capital levels for the five categories.  In general terms, the capital definitions are as follows:

 

 

 

Total Capital (to Risk
Weighted Assets)

 

Tier 1 (to Risk
Weighted Assets)

 

Tier 1 (to
Average Assets)

Pacific Northwest Bancorp is subject to risk-based capital guidelines issued by the FRB, which establish a risk-adjusted ratio relating capital to different categories of assets.  Tier I capital is comprised of shareholders’ equity and guaranteed preferred beneficial interests in subordinated debt less certain intangibles, and excludes the equity impact of adjusting securities available for sale to estimated fair value. Total capital is Tier I capital, the allowance for losses on loans and certain long-term debt that qualifies for inclusion as regulatory capital.  The FRB’s risk-based capital rules have been supplemented by a leverage capital ratio, defined as Tier I capital to adjusted quarterly average total assets.  As of June 30, 2003, under the FRB’s capital guidelines, PNWB’s levels of consolidated regulatory capital exceeded the FRB’s well-capitalized requirements.  The capital amounts and ratios for Pacific Northwest Bancorp and Pacific Northwest Bank as of June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, are presented in the following table:

As of June 30, 2003, Pacific Northwest Bancorp and Pacific Northwest Bank were in compliance with well-capitalized capital requirements. Management believes that under the current regulations the Bank and the Bancorp will continue to meet well-capitalized capital requirements in the foreseeable future.  However, events beyond the control of the Bank and Bancorp, such as a downturn in the economy in areas where Pacific Northwest Bank has most of its loans, could adversely affect future earnings and, consequently, the ability of Pacific Northwest Bank to meet future well-capitalized capital requirements.

 

LIQUIDITY RESOURCES

 

Liquidity management focuses on the need to meet both short-term funding requirements and PNWB’s long-term strategies and goals. Specifically, the objective of liquidity management is to ensure the continuous availability of funds to meet the demands of depositors, creditors and borrowers. Management manages the balance sheet to meet these needs. PNWB desires to attract and retain business and retail customer relationships with a focus on transaction accounts and commercial and consumer lending.  PNWB also uses wholesale funds through advances from the FHLB and the sale of securities under agreements to repurchase to fund asset growth and meet liquidity needs. PNWB also uses wholesale and brokered certificates of deposit to supplement wholesale borrowings.  Other sources of funds for liquidity include loan repayments, loan sales, security sales and mortgage-backed and related security repayments. Repayments on loans and mortgage-backed and related securities and deposit inflows and outflows are affected by changes in interest rates.

 

PNWB has the capacity to borrow funds from the FHLB through pre-approved credit lines.  These credit lines have pledge requirements whereby PNWB must maintain unencumbered collateral with a value at least equal to the outstanding balance. PNWB also uses the securities market as a vehicle for borrowing by utilizing its securities available for sale as collateral.  If the estimated fair value of the securities were to decline as a result of an increase in interest rates or other factors, PNWB would be required to pledge additional securities or cash as collateral. In addition, PNWB has the ability to borrow funds from the Federal Reserve.

 

The analysis of liquidity also includes a review of PNWB’s consolidated statement of cash flows for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003.  The consolidated statement of cash flows details PNWB’s operating,

 

25



 

investing and financing activities during the period.  The most significant items under operating activities include net income of $16.6 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003, an increase in other assets of $1.2 million, and a decrease in accrued expenses and other liabilities of $2.9 million.  Also included in operating activities are the add-back of non-cash depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, provision for losses of loans, and amortization of premium on investments totaling $9.1 million. Investing activities included purchases of securities available for sale of $305.1 million, proceeds from maturing and principal repayments on securities available for sale of $242.5 million, and proceeds from sale of securities available for sale of $104.3 million. During the period, financing activities included $42.9 million in borrowing repayments, net of borrowing proceeds, a $9.2 million net decrease in deposits, $4.4 million of cash proceeds from re-issuance of guaranteed subordinated debt, $3.1 million of proceeds received related to the issuance of stock, net of stock repurchased, and $4.7 million paid in cash dividends to shareholders.

Item 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

PNWB’s results of operations are largely dependent upon its ability to manage interest rate risk. Management considers interest rate risk to be a significant market risk that could have a material effect on PNWB’s financial condition and results of operations.

 

PNWB is sensitive to potential changes in interest rates and the resulting impact on net interest income.  It is an objective of management to reduce this sensitivity through the use of adjustable rate loans and short-term commercial and consumer loans.  This enables PNWB to better match the duration of its deposit base with these types of assets.

 

In addition to adjustable rate loans and short-term commercial and consumer loans, PNWB uses a number of other strategies to minimize the impact of significant interest rate changes on net income. The strategies utilized by PNWB include sales of long-term, fixed-rate mortgage loans, emphasis on growth in non-interest-bearing deposits and adjustable rate commercial lending.

 

Management uses simulation analysis to measure PNWB’s interest sensitivity position.  This simulation analysis is used to evaluate the effects of potential interest rate movements on net interest income.  The simulation analysis model is dynamic in nature, and incorporates management’s current balance sheet strategy. Management develops assumptions regarding interest rate spreads, projected balances, expected maturities, cash flows and prepayment assumptions under different interest rate scenarios.

 

For further information on interest rate risk, reference is made to the sections “Net Interest Income” and “Average Rates and Balances” in Item 2. Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.  Information regarding the expected maturities of financial assets and financial liabilities has not changed materially from disclosures made in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002.

 

Item 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

As of the end of the period covered by this report and pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), PNWB’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness and design of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act).  Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded, as of the end of the period covered by this report, that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting information required to be disclosed by the Company, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms.

 

Changes in Internal Controls

 

In addition and as of the end of the period covered by this report, there have been no changes in internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the internal control over financial reporting.
