NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2004 AND 2003

(Unaudited)

 

Note 1 - Critical Accounting Policies

 

The accounting and reporting policies of First West Virginia Bancorp, Inc. ( the “Company”) and its subsidiary were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, (“US GAAP”) and to general practices within the financial services industry. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management has identified the accounting policies described below as those that, due to the judgments, estimates and assumptions inherent in those policies, are critical to an understanding of the Company’s consolidated financial statements and management’s discussion and analysis.

 

INCOME RECOGNITION

 

The Company recognizes interest income by methods conforming to US GAAP that include general accounting practices within the financial services industry. Interest income on loans and investment securities is recognized by methods that result in level rates of return on principal amounts outstanding, including yield adjustments resulting from the amortization of loan costs and premiums on investment securities and accretion of loan fees and discounts on investment securities.

 

In the event management believes collection of all or a portion of contractual interest on a loan has become doubtful, which generally occurs after the loan is 90 days past due, the accrual of interest is discontinued. In addition, previously accrued interest deemed uncollectible that was recognized in income is reversed. Interest received on nonaccrual loans is included in income only if principal recovery is reasonably assured. A nonaccrual loan is restored to accrual status when it is brought current or has performed in accordance with contractual terms for a reasonable period of time, and the collectibility of the total contractual principal and interest is no longer doubtful.

 

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

 

In general, determining the amount of the allowance for loan losses requires significant judgment and the use of estimates by management. The Company maintains an allowance for loan losses to absorb probable losses in the loan portfolio based on a quarterly analysis of the portfolio. This formal analysis determines an appropriate level and allocation of the allowance for loan losses among loan types and resulting provision for loan losses by considering factors affecting loan losses, including specific losses, levels and trends in impaired and nonperforming loans, historical loan loss experience, current national and local economic conditions, volume, growth and composition of the portfolio, regulatory guidance and other relevant factors. Management continually monitors the loan portfolio through reviews of past due loans and all significant loans which are considered to be potential problem loans on a monthly basis. The internal loan review function provides for an independent review to evaluate the adequacy of the allowance. The provision could increase or decrease each quarter based upon the results of management’s formal analysis.

 

The amount of the allowance for loan losses for the various loan types represents management’s estimate of expected losses from existing loans based upon specific allocations for individual lending relationships and historical loss experience for each category of homogeneous loans. Impaired loans are commercial and commercial real estate loans for which it is probable the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The Company individually evaluates such loans for impairment and does not aggregate loans by major risk classifications. The definition of “impaired loans” is not the same as the definition of “nonaccrual loans,” although the two categories overlap. The Company may choose to place a loan on nonaccrual status due to payment delinquency or uncertain collectibility while not classifying the loan as impaired, provided the loan is not a commercial or commercial real estate classification. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status and collateral value. The amount of impairment for these types of loans is determined by the difference between the present value of the expected cash flows related to the loan, using the original interest rate, and its recorded value, or as a practical expedient in the case of collateralized loans, the difference between the fair value of the collateral and the recorded amount of the loans. When foreclosure is probable, impairment is measured based on the fair value of the collateral. While allocations are made to specific loans and pools of loans, the allowance is available for all loan losses.

Note 1 - Critical Accounting Policies - (Continued)

 

Mortgage loans secured by one-to-four family properties and all consumer loans are large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans and are measured for impairment collectively. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays, which are defined as 90 days or less, generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays on a case-by-case basis taking into consideration all circumstances concerning the loan, the credit worthiness and payment history of the borrower, the length of the payment delay, and the amount of shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Individual loan reviews are based upon specific quantitative and qualitative criteria, including the size of the loan, loan quality ratings, value of collateral, repayment ability of borrowers, and historical experience factors. The historical experience factors utilized for individual loan reviews are based upon past loss experience, known trends in losses and delinquencies, the growth of loans in particular markets and industries, and known changes in economic conditions in the particular lending markets. Allowances for homogeneous loans (such as residential mortgage loans, personal loans, etc.) are evaluated based upon historical loss experience, trends in losses and delinquencies, growth of loans in particular markets, and known changes in economic conditions in each lending market. There can be no assurance the allowance for loan losses will be adequate to cover all losses, but management believes the allowance for loan losses in the amount of $2,263,158 at September 30, 2004, was adequate to provide for probable losses from existing loans based on information currently available. While management uses available information to provide for loan losses, the ultimate collectibility of a substantial portion of the loan portfolio, and the need for future additions to the allowance, will be based on changes in economic conditions and other relevant factors. As such, an adverse change in economic activity could reduce cash flows for both commercial and individual borrowers, which would likely cause the Company to experience increases in problem assets, delinquencies and losses on loans.

 

INVESTMENT SECURITIES

 

Investment securities are classified at the time of purchase, based on management’s intention and ability, as securities available for sale or held to maturity. Debt securities classified as held to maturity are stated at cost adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount which are computed using the interest method and recognized as adjustments of interest income. Certain other debt and equity securities have been classified as available for sale to serve principally as a source of liquidity. Unrealized holding gains and losses for available-for-sale securities are reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, net of tax, until realized. Realized securities gains and losses are computed using the specific identification method. Interest and dividends on investment securities are recognized as income when earned.

 

Common stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) and Federal Reserve Bank represents ownership interest in institutions that are wholly owned by other financial institutions. These equity securities are accounted for at cost and are classified with other assets.

 

While temporary changes in the market value of available-for-sale securities are not recognized in earnings, a decline in fair value below amortized cost deemed to be other-than-temporary results in an adjustment to the cost basis of the investment, with a corresponding loss charged against earnings. Management evaluates the investment securities for other-than-temporary declines in estimated fair value on a quarterly basis. This analysis requires management to consider various factors in order to determine if a decline in estimated fair value is temporary or other-than-temporary. These factors include duration and magnitude of the decline in value, the financial condition of the issuer, and the company’s ability and intent to continue holding the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in market value. At September 30, 2004, there were no investment securities identified by management to be other-than-temporarily impaired. If investments decline in fair value due to adverse changes in the financial markets, charges to income could occur in future periods.

 

GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

 

The Company purchased the deposits of another financial institution in 2001. An identifiable intangible asset resulted from the purchase of the core deposits and, as such, are amortized into noninterest expense on the straight-line basis over the period the Company expects to benefit from such assets (7 years). While management feels the assumptions and variables used to value the acquisition was reasonable, the use of different, but still reasonable, assumptions could produce different results. The Company recognized amortization expense of $22,188 in both of the three months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 and $66,564 in both of the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003. The unamortized balance from the purchase of these core deposit intangible assets is $303,234 and $369,797 at September 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively.

 

The Company has approximately $1.6 million of goodwill, resulting from the purchase of a less-than-whole financial institution. As such, goodwill value is supported ultimately by revenue that is driven by the volume of business transacted. A decline in earnings as a result of a lack of growth or the inability to deliver cost effective services over sustained periods can lead to impairment of goodwill that could adversely impact earnings in future periods. Goodwill and other intangibles are periodically reviewed for impairment. No impairment losses were recognized. Additionally, future events could cause management to conclude that impairment indicators exist and that the goodwill is impaired, which would result in the Company recording an impairment loss. Any resulting impairment loss could have a material, adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

INCOME TAXES

 

The Company and its subsidiary file a consolidated federal income tax return. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are reflected at currently enacted income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets and liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes. Deferred income tax expenses or benefits are based on the changes in the deferred tax asset or liability from period to period. The provision for income taxes during the current period is at a rate which management believes will approximate the effective rate for the year.

 

CASH FLOWS

 

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and due from banks and federal funds sold.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In December 2003, the FASB issued a revision to Interpretation 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, which established standards for identifying a variable interest entity (“VIE”) and for determining under what circumstances a VIE should be consolidated with its primary beneficiary. The Interpretation requires consolidation of entities in which an enterprise absorbs a majority of the entity’s expected losses, receives a majority of the entity’s residual returns, or both, as a result of ownership, contractual or other financial interests in the entity. Prior to the interpretation, entities were generally consolidated by an enterprise when it had a controlling financial interest through ownership of a majority voting interest in the entity. The adoption of this Interpretation did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

 

In December 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) revised FAS No. 132, Employers’ Disclosures about Pension and Other Postretirement Benefit. This statement retains the disclosures required by FAS No. 132, which standardized the disclosure requirements for pensions and other postretirement benefits to the extent practicable and requires additional information on changes in the benefit obligations and fair value of plan assets. Additional disclosures include information describing the types of plan assets, investment strategy, measurement date(s), plan obligations, cash flows, and components of net periodic benefit cost recognized during interim periods. This statement retains reduced disclosure requirements for nonpublic entities from FAS No. 132, and it includes reduced disclosure for certain of the new requirements. This statement is effective for financial statements with fiscal years ending after December 15, 2003. The interim disclosures required by this statement are effective for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2003. The adoption of this statement did not have a material effect on the Company’s disclosure requirements.

 

In March 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) reached consensus on the guidance provided by Emerging Issues Task Force Issue 03-1 (“EITF 03-1”), The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and its Application to Certain Investments. The guidance is applicable to debt and equity securities that are within the scope of FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments In Debt and Equity Securities and certain other investments. EITF 03-1 specifies that an impairment would be considered other-than-temporary unless (a) the investor has the ability and intent to hold an investment for a reasonable period of time sufficient for the recovery of the fair value up to (or beyond) the cost of the investment and (b) evidence indicating the cost of the investment is recoverable within a reasonable period of time outweighs evidence to the contrary. EITF 03-1 cost method investment and disclosure provisions were effective for reporting periods ending after June 15, 2004. The measurement and recognition provisions relating to debt and equity securities have been delayed until the FASB issues additional guidance. The Company adopted cost method investment and disclosure provisions of EITF 03-1 on June 30, 2004. The adoption did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements, results of operations or liquidity of the Company.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of the Financial Condition and

Results of Holding Company Operations

 

First West Virginia Bancorp, Inc., a West Virginia corporation headquartered in Wheeling, West Virginia, has one wholly-owned subsidiary: Progressive Bank, N.A., which operates in Wheeling, Wellsburg, Moundsville, New Martinsville, Buckhannon and Weston, West Virginia and Bellaire, Ohio. Following is a discussion and analysis of the significant changes in the financial condition and results of operations of First West Virginia Bancorp, Inc., (the Company), and its subsidiary for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements, Notes, and tables contained in this report, as well as with the Holding Company’s Annual Report contained on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.

 

Forward-Looking Information

 

Certain information contained in this report, which are not historical facts, may be forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. These statements are subject to important factors that could cause action results to differ materially from those contemplated by such statements, including without limitation, the effect of changing economic conditions, changes in interest rates, changes in lending activities, changes in state and federal regulations, and other external factors which may materially impact the Company’s operational and financial performance.

 

OVERVIEW

 

The Company reported net income of $1,992,292 or $1.30 per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 compared to $1,919,123 or $1.25 per share for the same period during 2003. The increase of $73,169 or 3.8% in earnings was primarily due to the increase in net interest income, offset in part by the increase in noninterest expenses and the decrease in noninterest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003. For the first nine months of 2004, the Company’s return on average assets (ROA) was .94% as compared to .93% for the same period in 2003. The annualized return on average equity (ROE) was 11.63% for the first nine months of 2004 as compared to 11.81% for the same period in 2003.

 

For the third quarter of 2004, net income was $707,973 or $.46 per share as compared to $608,923 or $.40 per share for the same period in 2003. The increase in earnings of $99,050 or 16.3% was primarily due to the increase in net interest income combined with the increase in noninterest income, offset in part by the increases in operating expenses and the provision for loan losses. The ROA was .98% for the three months ended September 30, 2004 as compared to ..85% for the same period of the prior year. For the three months ended September 30, 2004 compared to September 30, 2003, the ROE was 12.16% and 10.93%, respectively.

 

The Company ended the third quarter of 2004 with total assets of $289,241,180, up 1.8% over the year ended December 31, 2003. Loans increased during the first nine months of 2004 by $8,922,919, or 6.1%, to $155,633,413. Total deposits decreased by $1,215,603, or .5% since December 31, 2003 and was primarily due to a decrease in time deposits offset in part by the increase in noninterest bearing and interest bearing deposits.

 

The allowance for loan losses amounted to $2,263,158 or 1.5% of total loans at September 30, 2004, compared to $2,304,868 or 1.5% of total loans at December 31, 2003. Non-performing assets were $1,383,000 at September 30, 2004, as compared to $2,169,000 at December 31, 2003. The decrease in non-performing assets was primarily due to the payments received on nonaccrual loans.

EARNINGS ANALYSIS

 

Net Interest Income

 

Net interest income, which is the difference between interest earned on loans and investments and interest paid on deposits and other liabilities, is the primary source of earnings for the Holding Company. Changes in the volume and mix of earning assets and interest bearing liabilities combined with changes in market rates of interest greatly effect net interest income. Tables Two and Three present the average balance sheets and an interest rate analysis for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003.

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2004, net interest income was $6,851,016, an increase of $312,546 or 4.8%, from the same period in 2003. The increase in net interest income was primarily due to the decrease in interest paid on deposit liabilities combined with the increase in interest and fees on loans, offset in part by a decline in the interest earned on investment securities. The changes in the volume and mix of earning assets and interest bearing liabilities combined with the changes in the market rates of interest resulted in taxable equivalent net interest yields on average earning assets of 3.71% for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, as compared to 3.61% at December 31, 2003.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2004, interest expense decreased $347,576 or 9.9% as compared to the same period in 2003. The lower interest rates paid on interest bearing liabilities offset by the increase in the average volume of interest bearing liabilities primarily resulted in the decline in interest expense. The average yield paid on interest bearing liabilities decreased .21%, from 2.00% at December 31, 2003 to 1.79% at September 30, 2004. The decrease in the average yield on interest bearing liabilities was primarily due to the decrease in the interest rates paid on time deposits and savings deposits.

 

Interest income decreased $35,030 or .3% for the first nine months of 2004 compared to the same period of the prior year. Interest income on investment securities decreased $77,551 or 2.7% during the nine months ended September 30, 2004 over 2003 and was primarily the result of the decline in the average volume of investment securities. Interest and fees on loans increased $64,823 or .9% for the nine month period ended September 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003. The increase in interest and fees on loans was primarily due to the increase in the average volume of loans. The taxable equivalent yield on loans decreased from 7.05% at December 31, 2003 to 6.62% at September 30, 2004.

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2004, net interest income was $2,379,685, an increase of $193,930 or 8.9%, from the same period in 2003. Net interest income increased during the third quarter of 2004 compared to the same period in 2003 primarily from the increase in interest income on loans and investment securities combined with decrease in the interest rates paid on deposit liabilities. Interest and fees on loans increased $82,962 or 3.5% for the three month period ended September 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003. The increase in interest and fees on loans was primarily due to the increase in the average volume of loans. Interest income on investment securities increased $33,172 or 3.7% during the three months ended September 30, 2004 over 2003. The rise in the average interest yield on investment securities primarily contributed to the increased net interest income during the third quarter of 2004. During the three months ended September 30, 2004, interest expense decreased $77,759 or 6.9% as compared to the same period in 2003. The decrease in the interest rates paid on interest bearing liabilities, which were offset in part by an increase in the average volume of interest bearing liabilities primarily resulted in the decline in interest expense during the third quarter of 2004.

 

Noninterest Income

 

Non interest income decreased $16,364 or 1.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 as compared to same period of the prior year. The decrease in noninterest income was primarily due to a decline in gains on sales of investment securities, offset in part by increases in service charges and other operating income.

 

Sales of investment securities for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 were primarily the result of sales by the Company. The Company accounted for securities gains of $12,557 and securities losses of $9,511 during the nine month period ended September 30, 2004 and securities gains of $120,664 and securities losses of $15,456 during the period ended September 30, 2003 and those sales were attributable to sales of marketable equity securities.

Noninterest Income (Continued)

 

Service charges increased $54,500 during the nine months ended September 30, 2004, up 9.9%, from the same period in 2003. The increase in service charges primarily resulted from an increase in the number of charges assessed on deposit accounts combined with an increase in the number of deposit holders compared to the prior year.

 

Other operating income represents fees from safe deposit box rentals, sales of checkbooks, sales of cashiers’ checks and money orders, utility collections, ATM charges and card fees, home equity credit line fees, credit life commissions, credit card fees and commissions and various other charges and fees related to normal customer banking relationships. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2004, other operating income increased $31,298 or 10.7% compared to the same period in 2003. The increase in other operating income resulted primarily from the earnings related to the cash surrender value of the bank owned life insurance on its key officers and the increase in checkbook sales, offset in part by a decrease in other credit card fees, ATM fees and utility collection fees.

 

For the third quarter of 2004, non interest income increased $24,235 or 7.8% as compared to same period of the prior year. The increase in noninterest income was primarily due to an increase in other operating income. The 21.2% increase in other operating income primarily resulted from the earnings related to the cash surrender value of the bank owned life insurance on its key officers.

 

Noninterest Expense

 

Noninterest expense increased $219,674 or 4.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 as compared to same period of the prior year. The increase in noninterest expense was primarily due to increases in salary and employee benefits and net occupancy expense. Salary and employee benefits increased $121,536 or 4.8% during the nine months ended September 30, 2004 over the same period in 2003. The increased salary and employee benefit expense in 2004 compared to 2003 was primarily due to the hiring of additional personnel to enhance lending operations, increased employee benefit costs and normal annual merit adjustments. Occupancy expenses increased $60,989 or 8.5% during the nine months ended September 30, 2004 compared to the same period in 2003. Increased building maintenance costs, property taxes, insurance, and equipment repair and maintenance costs primarily contributed to the increase in occupancy expenses in 2004 as compared to 2003. The Company incurred additional maintenance costs with the operation of the internet web site and online banking program in 2004 compared to 2003. Other operating expenses increased $37,149 or 2.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 over 2003. Other operating expenses primarily increased due to increases in service expense, advertising expense, other taxes, director fees and other expenses, offset in part by decreases in stationery and supplies expense, regulatory assessments, and postage expense.

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2004, noninterest expense increased $48,337 or 2.9% as compared to the same period of the prior year. The increase in noninterest expense was primarily due to increases in other operating expenses and occupancy expense. Other operating expenses increased $49,410 or 10.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2004 over 2003. Increases in service expense, other taxes, advertising expense, postage expense and other expenses, offset in part by decreases in stationery and supplies expense and director fees primarily contributed to the increase in other operating expenses. Occupancy expenses increased $16,589 or 7.1% during the three months ended September 30, 2004 compared to the same period in 2003. Increased building maintenance costs, taxes and insurance primarily contributed to the increase in occupancy expenses during the third quarter of 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003.

Balance Sheet Analysis

 

Investments

 

Investment securities decreased $9,475,060 or 8.0% from December 31, 2003 to September 30, 2004. The decline in investment securities was primarily used in part to fund the additional loan growth.

 

The investment portfolio is managed to attempt to achieve an optimum mix of asset quality, liquidity and maximum yield on investments. Taxable securities comprised 81.3% of total securities at September 30, 2004, as compared to 84.5% at December 31, 2003. Other than the normal risks inherent in purchasing U.S. Treasury securities, U.S. Government corporation and agencies securities, and obligations of states and political subdivisions, i.e. interest rate risk, management has no knowledge of other market or credit risk involved in these investments. The Company does not have any high risk hybrid/derivative instruments.

 

Investment securities that are classified available for sale are available for sale at any time based upon management’s assessment of changes in economic or financial market conditions. These securities are carried at fair value and the unrealized holding gains and losses, net of taxes, are reflected as a separate component of stockholder’s equity until realized. Available for sale securities, at fair value decreased $8,861,832 or 7.7% from December 31, 2003, and represented 96.9% of the investment portfolio at September 30, 2004. The decrease was primarily due to maturities and calls of U.S. Treasury and U.S. Government corporation and agency securities and corporate debt securities offset in part by the purchase of obligations of states and political subdivisions. The held to maturity securities decreased $613,228 or 15.4% from December 31, 2003 and represented 3.1% of the investment portfolio as of September 30, 2004. The decrease was primarily the result of maturities and calls of municipal securities. As the investment portfolio consists primarily of fixed rate debt securities, changes in the market rates of interest will effect the carrying value of securities available for sale, adjusted upward or downward under the requirements of FAS 115 and represent temporary adjustments in values. The carrying value of securities available for sale was increased by $661,760 at September 30, 2004 and increased by $997,588 at December 31, 2003. The fair value of securities classified as held to maturity was above book value by $139,771 and $210,275 at September 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively.

Loans

 

Loans represent the largest asset on the Company’s balance sheet. Total loans, net of unearned income, increased $8,922,919 or 6.1% from December 31, 2003 to September 30, 2004. The growth in the loan portfolio in the first nine months of 2004 was primarily due to the increase in commercial loans and other loans.

 

Real estate residential loans which include real estate construction, real estate farmland, and real estate residential loans comprised thirty-four percent (34%) of the loan portfolio. Commercial loans which include real estate secured by non-farm, non-residential and commercial and industrial loans comprised forty-four percent (44%) of the loan portfolio. Installment loans comprised twelve percent (12%) of the loan portfolio. Other loans which include non-rated industrial development obligations, direct financing leases and other loans comprised ten percent (10%) of the loan portfolio. The changes in the composition of the loan portfolio since December 31, 2003 were a 1% increase in commercial loans, a 2% increase in other loans, a 2% decrease in real estate residential loans and a 1% decrease in installment loans.

Non-performing assets include non-accrual loans on which the collectibility of the full amount of interest is uncertain; loans which have been renegotiated to provide for a reduction or deferral of interest on principal because of a deterioration in the financial position of the borrower; loans past due ninety days or more as to principal or interest; and other real estate owned. A summary of nonperforming assets is presented in Table Eight.

 

Total non-performing loans were $1,383,000 at September 30, 2004 as compared to $2,169,000 at December 31, 2003. The decrease in non-performing loans was primarily due to the payoff of a non-accrual commercial loan during the third quarter of 2004. Loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest were $16,000 at September 30, 2004, as compared to $58,000 at December 31, 2003.

 

Loans are placed in non-accrual when the principal or interest is past due 90 days or more, unless the loan is both well secured and in the process of collection. Non-accrual loans were at .8% of total loans outstanding as of September 30, 2004, as compared to 1.4% of total loans at December 31, 2003. Management continues to monitor the nonperforming assets to ensure against deterioration in collateral values.

Generally, all banks recognize interest income on the accrual basis, except for certain loans which are placed on a non-accrual status. Loans are placed on a non-accrual status, when in the opinion of management doubt exists as to its collectibility. In accordance with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency Policy, banks may not accrue interest on any loan which either the principal or interest is past due 90 days or more unless the loan is both well secured and in the process of collection.

 

The amount of interest income that would have been recognized had the loans performed in accordance with their original terms was approximately $77,100, $51,700 and $173,500 for the periods ended September 30, 2004, September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2003, respectively. As of September 30, 2004, there are no loans known to management other than those previously disclosed about which management has any information about possible credit problems of borrowers which causes management to have serious doubts as to the borrower’s ability to comply with present loan repayment terms.

Allowance for Loan Losses

 

In all lending activities there is an inherent risk that borrowers will be unable to repay their obligations. The Company maintains an allowance for loan losses to absorb probable loan losses. The Company has historically maintained the allowance for loan losses at a level greater than actual charge-offs. Although a subjective evaluation is determined by management, the Company believes it has appropriately assessed the risk of loans in the loan portfolio and has provided for an allowance which is adequate based on that assessment. Because the allowance is an estimate, any change in the economic conditions of the Company’s market area could result in new estimates which could affect the Company’s earnings. Management monitors the quality of the loan portfolio through reviews of past due loans and all significant loans which are considered to be potential problem loans on a monthly basis. The internal loan review function provides for an independent review of commercial, real estate, and installment loans in order to measure the asset quality of the portfolio. Management’s review of the loan portfolio has not indicated any material loans, not disclosed in the accompanying tables and discussions which are known to have possible credit problems that cause management to have serious doubts as to the ability of each borrower to comply with their present loan repayment terms.

 

The allowance for loan losses decreased $41,710 or 1.8%, since December 31, 2003. The allowance for loan losses represented 1.5% of outstanding loans as of September 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003. Net loan charge-offs were $251,710 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2004, compared to $157,037 in 2003. The net loan charge-offs during the first nine months of 2004 were primarily commercial and consumer loans. The provision for possible loan losses was $210,000 for both nine month periods ended September 30, 2004 and 2003. The credit quality of the loan portfolio combined with the recent level of net charge-offs and nonperforming assets continue to be considered in the calculation of the provision for loan losses. The Company has allocated the allowance for possible loan losses to specific portfolio segments based upon historical net charge-off experience, changes in the level of nonperforming assets, local economic conditions and management’s experience as presented in Table Ten.

Deposits

 

A stable core deposit base is the major source of funds for the Company’s subsidiary bank. The deposit mix depends upon many factors including competition from other financial institutions, depositor interest in certain types of deposits, changes in the interest rate and the Company’s need for certain types of deposit growth. Total deposits were $240,731,727 at September 30, 2004 as compared to $241,947,330 at December 31, 2003, a decrease of .5%. Since year end the decline in deposits was primarily in time deposits, offset in part by increases in noninterest bearing and interest bearing demand deposits and savings deposits. Time deposits decreased $4,736,375 or 5.2% during the nine month period of 2004. At September 30, 2004, noninterest bearing deposits comprised 11% of total deposits and interest bearing deposits which include NOW, money market, savings and time deposits comprised 89% of total deposits. The change in the deposit mix from December 31, 2003 to September 30, 2004 was a 1% increase in noninterest bearing deposits and a 1% decrease in interest bearing deposits.

Federal Funds Purchased and Repurchase Agreements

 

Federal funds purchased and repurchase agreements are short-term borrowings. There were no Federal funds purchased at September 30, 2004. Federal funds purchased were $800,000 as of December 31, 2003. Repurchase agreements increased $5,464,105 or 38.2%, from $14,288,834 at December 31, 2003 to $19,752,939 at September 30, 2004. The balance of repurchase agreements increased primarily due to the addition of one new commercial customer.

 

Federal Home Loan Bank Borrowings

 

Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) borrowings were $2,434,871 at September 30, 2004 compared to $2,463,464 at December 31, 2003 with an interest rate of 4.76%. The FHLB borrowings are collateralized by a blanket collateral agreement which assigns a security interest in capital stock, deposits, mortgage loans, securities and FHLB stock of the subsidiary bank. The borrowings will mature in 2018. The FHLB funding was utilized to mitigate the impact of rising interest rates for a long term fixed rate loan commitment.

 

Other Assets and Other Liabilities

 

Changes in other assets and liabilities were primarily the result of trade date accounting on investment securities purchases and sales. At December 31, 2003, other assets were increased by approximately $3.7 million due to sales of investment securities. At September 30, 2004, other liabilities were increased by approximately $997,000 due to purchases of investment securities.

Capital Resources

 

Stockholders’ equity increased 4.9% during the nine month period ended September 30, 2004 entirely from current earnings after quarterly dividends, and decreased .9% resulting from the effect of the change in the net unrealized loss on securities available for sale. Stockholders’ equity amounted to 8.3% of total assets at September 30, 2004 as compared to 8.1% at December 31, 2003.

 

The Company’s primary source of funds for payment of dividends to shareholders is from the dividends from its subsidiary bank. Earnings from subsidiary bank operations are expected to remain adequate to fund payment of stockholders’ dividends and internal growth. In management’s opinion, the subsidiary bank has the capability to upstream sufficient dividends to meet the cash requirements of the Holding Company.

 

The Holding Company is subject to regulatory risk-based capital guidelines administered by the Federal Reserve Board. These risk-based capital guidelines establish minimum capital ratios of Total capital, Tier 1 Capital, and Leverage to assess the capital adequacy of bank holding companies.

 

The following chart shows the regulatory capital levels for the company at September 30, 2004, and December 31, 2003:

Liquidity

 

Liquidity management ensures that funds are available to meet loan commitments, deposit withdrawals, and operating expenses. Funds are provided by loan repayments, investment securities maturities, or deposits, and can be raised by liquidating assets or through additional borrowings. The Holding Company had investment securities with an estimated fair value of $106,407,520 classified as available for sale at September 30, 2004. These securities are available for sale at any time based upon management’s assessment in order to provide necessary liquidity should the need arise. In addition, the Company’s subsidiary bank, Progressive Bank, N.A., is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh (“FHLB”). Membership in the FHLB provides an additional source of funding, in the form of collateralized advances. At September 30, 2004, the subsidiary bank had a short term line of credit available with the FHLB in the aggregate amount of approximately $7 million. There were no short term borrowings outstanding pursuant to this agreement as of September 30, 2004.

 

At September 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, the Company had outstanding loan commitments and unused lines of credit totaling $19,573,000 and $28,034,000, respectively. As of September 30, 2004, management placed a high probability for required funding within one year of approximately $14.0 million. Approximately $4.6 million is principally unused home equity and credit card lines on which management places a low probability for required funding.

Item 3 Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

The Company’s subsidiary bank uses an asset/liability model to measure the impact of changes in interest rates on net interest income on a periodic basis. Assumptions are made to simulate the impact of future changes in interest rates and/or changes in balance sheet composition. The effect of changes in future interest rates on the mix of assets and liabilities may cause actual results to differ from simulated results. Guidelines established by the Company’s subsidiary bank provides that the estimated net interest income may not change by more than 10% in a one year period given a +/- 200 basis point parallel shift in interest rates. Excluding the potential effect of interest rate changes on assets and liabilities of the Holding Company which are not deemed material, the anticipated impact on net interest income of the subsidiary bank at September 30, 2004 was as follows: given a 200 basis point increase scenario net interest income would be reduced by approximately 6.8%, and given a 200 basis point decrease scenario net interest income would be reduced by approximately 10.7%. The Asset Liability committee believes that a 200 basis point decline in interest rates is unlikely to occur, and have determined that a 100 basis point instantaneous change may be more realistic. Therefore, the results using a +/-100 basis point interest rate scenario are presented. Under the 100 basis point increase scenario net interest income would be reduced by approximately 3.0%, and given a 100 basis point decrease scenario net interest income would be reduced by 1.8%. The projections provided by the model are not intended as an actual forecast of the bank’s performance in a particular rate environment, and should not be relied upon. Actual changes in the interest rate environment normally do not take place instantaneously, but over a period of time, and do not occur in a parallel fashion. Additionally, the balance sheet composition, spread relationships for new dollars invested, non interest income and expenses, investment practices, and deposit practices all change as a result of changes in interest rates and would need to be considered by the Asset Liability committee.

 

Item 4 Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

The Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Charles K. Graham, and Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Francie P. Reppy, after evaluating the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-14 and 15d-14) as of a date within 90 days prior to the filing of this report (the “Evaluation Date”), have concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were adequate and effective to ensure that material information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.

 

Changes in Internal Controls

 

During the quarter, the Company’s subsidiary bank adopted a control procedure to ensure that loans are documented and closed in accordance with any terms and conditions set forth by the Board of Directors in granting their approval.

 

There were no other significant changes in the Company’s internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures subsequent to the date of their evaluation, nor were there any significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in the Company’s internal controls. As a result, no corrective actions were required or undertaken.
