STURGIS BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

Note A: FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.

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

Note B: ORGANIZATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES.

     The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements of Sturgis Bancorp and subsidiaries (individually and collectively referred to as “Bancorp”).

Organization

     Bancorp is chartered as a financial holding company. Bancorp’s primary asset is Sturgis Bank & Trust Company (“Bank”), a Michigan savings bank. The Bank, as a state-chartered stock savings bank and as a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank System (“FHLB”), is required to maintain an investment in the capital stock of the FHLB.

     The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insures deposit accounts within certain limitations. A premium is required by the FDIC for the insurance of such accounts.

Note B: ORGANIZATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES, Continued.

Principles of Consolidation

     The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Bancorp, the Bank and all wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

     The allowance for loan losses is a material estimate that is particularly susceptible to change in the near term. While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, future additions to the allowance or write-downs may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the allowance for loan losses. Such agencies could require Bancorp to recognize additions to the allowance or write-downs based on their judgment of information available to them at the time of their examination.

Securities

     Debt securities that management has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as “held to maturity” and recorded at amortized cost. Securities not classified as “held to maturity” or “trading” are classified as “available for sale” and recorded at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported as other comprehensive income.

     Purchase premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the terms of the securities. Declines in the fair value of held to maturity and available for sale securities below their cost that are deemed to be other than temporary are reflected in earnings as realized losses. Gains and losses on the sale of securities are recorded on the trade date.

Note B: ORGANIZATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES, Continued.

Loans

     Substantially all of Bancorp’s loan activity is with customers located in southwestern and south-central, lower Michigan with a major concentration in single-family residential lending.

     Generally, loans are collateralized by real estate. Bancorp expects loans to be repaid from cash flow or proceeds from the sale of selected assets of the borrower. Bancorp’s policy for requiring collateral is dependent upon management’s credit evaluation of the borrower.

     Interest on loans is accrued and credited to income based upon the principal amount outstanding. The accrual of interest income is generally discontinued when a loan becomes 90 days past due as to principal or interest or when, in the opinion of management, full collection of principal or interest is unlikely. When a loan is in non-accrual status, interest income is recognized only to the extent of cash received and when the full collection of principal is not in doubt. Management may elect to continue the accrual of interest when the estimated fair value of collateral is sufficient to cover the principal balance and accrued interest.

     Loan origination fees and certain direct loan origination costs are deferred and the net amount amortized as an adjustment of the related loan yield over the contractual life of the loans. Amortization of deferred amounts is suspended when a loan becomes non-accrual.

Loans Held for Sale

     The Bank sells a portion of its mortgage loan production into the secondary market. Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or market until sold. Whenever loan costs exceed market value on a net aggregate basis, a valuation allowance is recorded.

Allowance For Possible Loan Losses

     The allowance for possible loan losses is maintained at a level considered by management to be adequate to absorb losses inherent in existing loans and commitments. The adequacy of the allowance is based on evaluations that take into consideration such factors as prior loss experience, changes in the nature and volume of the portfolio, overall portfolio quality, loan concentrations, specific impaired or problem loans and commitments, and current economic conditions that may affect the borrower’s ability to pay.

Note B: ORGANIZATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES, Continued.

Office Properties and Equipment

     Office properties and equipment are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of the related assets.

Real Estate Owned

     Real estate owned includes properties acquired through foreclosure proceedings or by acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure. Real estate owned is recorded at the lower of its cost or the estimated fair market value (as determined by recent appraisals) less estimated selling costs. Any write-down of the loan balance to estimated fair market value (less estimated selling costs) when the property is foreclosed is charged to the allowance for loan losses. Subsequent market write-downs, operating expenses and gains or losses on disposition of real estate owned are charged to current earnings.

Investment In Limited Partnership

     The Bank has an investment in an Indiana limited partnership and First Michiana Development Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Bank, has an investment in a Michigan limited partnership, which are structured to generate low-income housing tax credits. These investments are accounted for using the equity method whereby Bancorp annually records its proportionate share of partnership losses as an adjustment to the carrying value of the investment.

Goodwill

     Until adoption of FAS 142 in January of 2002, goodwill was amortized using accelerated methods over fifteen years. Beginning in January of 2002, the Bank no longer amortizes goodwill in accordance with FAS 142. On an ongoing basis, management assesses the recoverability of the goodwill. If an assessment of the goodwill indicates that its recoverability is impaired, a charge to expense is recorded for the amount of the impairment.

Servicing Rights

     Servicing assets are recognized as separate assets when rights are acquired through purchase or through sale of financial assets. Capitalized servicing rights are amortized into noninterest income in proportion to, and over the period of, the estimated future net servicing income of the underlying financial assets. Servicing assets are evaluated for impairment based upon the fair value of the rights as compared to amortized cost.

Note B: ORGANIZATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES, Continued.

     Impairment is determined by stratifying rights by predominant characteristics, such as interest rates and terms. Fair value is determined using prices for similar assets with similar characteristics, when available, or based upon discounted cash flows using market-based assumptions. Impairment is recognized through a valuation allowance for an individual stratum, to the extent that fair value is less than the capitalized amount for the stratum. The Bank carried a valuation allowance associated with capitalized servicing rights of approximately $275,000 at March 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002.

Federal Income Taxes

     Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

Statement of Cash Flows

     For the purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, Bancorp considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

     Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Accordingly, for the three month period ended March 31, 2003 the weighted average number of common shares used in the computation of basic earnings per share was 2,808,238. The weighted average number of common shares for the three month period ended March 31, 2002 was 3,066,356.

     Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus the dilutive effect of outstanding stock options. For the three month period ended March 31, 2003 the weighted average number of common shares used in the computation of diluted earnings per share was 2,809,318. The weighted average number of common shares for the three month period ended March 31, 2002 was 3,066,356.

Stock Options

     The Corporation applies APB Opinion 25 and related Interpretations in accounting for the stock option plan. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized. Had compensation cost for the Corporation’s stock option plan been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates for awards under the plan consistent with the method prescribed by FASB Statement No. 123, the Corporation’s net income and earnings per share would have been adjusted to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

     In June 2001, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142 (FAS 142), Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets was issued and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. Under FAS 142, identifiable intangible assets that meet certain criteria will continue to be amortized over their estimated useful lives. However, goodwill and non-identifiable intangible assets will no longer be amortized. Instead, these assets will be evaluated for impairment on an annual basis. If an asset is deemed to be impaired, the asset will be written down through an adjustment to current earnings. As a result of adopting FAS 142 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002, Bancorp no longer amortizes goodwill.

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

Forward Looking Statements

     This report contains statements that constitute forward-looking statements. These statements appear in several places in this report and include statements regarding intent, belief, outlook, objectives, efforts, estimates or expectations of Bancorp, primarily with respect to future events and the future financial performance of the Bancorp. Any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future events or performance and involve risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially from those in the forward-looking statement. Factors that could cause a difference between an ultimate actual outcome and a preceding forward-looking statement include, but are not limited to, changes in interest rates and interest rate relationships; demand for products and services; the degree of competition by traditional and non-traditional competitors; changes in banking laws and regulations; changes in tax laws; changes in prices, levies, and assessments; the impact of technological advances; government and regulatory policy changes; the outcome of any pending and future litigation and contingencies; trends in consumer behavior and ability to repay loans; and changes of the world, national and local economies. Bancorp undertakes no obligation to update, amend or clarify forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

Financial Condition

     Assets. Bancorp’s total assets at March 31, 2003 were $294.1 million compared to $296.7 million at December 31, 2002, a decrease of $2.6 million or 0.9%. Decreases in interest-bearing deposits and loans were redeployed into securities available for sale.

     Loans. The Bank’s net loans decreased to $206.0 million at March 31, 2003 from $212.0 million at December 31, 2002. This decrease was primarily due to residential loans refinanced with the decrease in market rates. Adjustable-rate mortgage loans were refinanced into fixed rate mortgages to lock in low rates. The Bank sells long-term, fixed rate, residential mortgages in the secondary market, so the residential mortgages decreased to $122.6 million at March 31, 2003 from $127.8 million at December 31, 2002. Commercial mortgage loans increased to $51.0 million, or 23.8% of gross loans, at March 31, 2003 from $50.4 million, or 23.2% of gross loans at December 31, 2002. The demand for fixed-rate mortgage loans in 2003 was strong due to lower average interest rates during the period. The mortgage loans originated for sale were primarily funded by the secondary mortgage market sales. At March 31, 2003, outstanding loan commitments were $29.7 million, which included $17.1 million of home equity lines of credit. These loan commitments will be funded by interest-bearing deposits, maturing assets, and additional FHLB borrowings, if needed. The decision to sell fixed-rate mortgages with original maturities of 10 years or greater protects the Bank from the interest rate risks inherent in holding these longer fixed-rate loans and provides a source of liquidity to fund loan demand. Bank Management does not view the decrease in loan balances as a continuing trend. An increase in market interest rates will decelerate the pace of refinance in the residential loan portfolio and the Bank is continuing its growth in commercial loans.

Table of Contents

     Loans serviced for others increased by $10.1 million to $188.6 million at March 31, 2003 from $178.5 million at December 31, 2002. This servicing portfolio consists of loans originated by the Bank and sold in the secondary mortgage market with servicing retained by the Bank. Bancorp has no purchased mortgage servicing portfolio. The originated mortgage servicing rights asset had a valuation allowance at March 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002 of approximately $275,000. This allowance was established to recognize the measured impairment of the asset. The Bank will continue to monitor the valuation of the servicing rights asset. If subsequent analysis shows reductions in the impairment, the valuation allowance will be reduced.

     Allowance for loan losses. The Bank makes provisions for loan losses in accordance with the changes in the credit risk of the loan portfolio. The provisions are based on the historic loss experience of the Bank, adjusted for the increasing credit risk inherent in the growing commercial loan portfolio. The Bank makes general provisions by loan category; residential mortgages, nonresidential mortgages, commercial loans, home equity loans, second mortgages, consumer loans and deposit account loans. Commercial loans and nonresidential mortgages are graded on an 8-point scale, based on the credit quality. Loan grades are reviewed at least annually. The grade of the loan determines the allowance for losses. Loans graded 6 or higher are reviewed for specific reserves, determined by management’s assessment of risk.

     Interest-bearing Deposits in Banks. Interest-bearing deposits in banks were $17.5 million at March 31, 2003, compared to 23.0 million at December 31, 2002, a decrease of $5.5 million, due to maturity.

     Securities – Available for sale. Investment securities available for sale of $9.2 million at March 31, 2003 consisted primarily of shares in a mutual fund that invests in mortgage-related securities.

     Securities – Held-to-maturity. Investment securities held-to-maturity consisting of municipal obligations, trust preferred and mortgage-backed securities were $12.4 million at March 31, 2003, compared to $12.6 million at December 31, 2002 a decrease of

19


Table of Contents

$0.2 million. The decrease was primarily due to principal payments on mortgage-backed securities.

     Investments in Limited Partnerships. Investments in limited partnerships increased to $1.2 million at March 31, 2003 from $161,080 at December 31, 2002. This increase is due to an investment in North Lake Apartments in Elkhart, IN. North Lake Apartments is a 192-unit apartment community which utilizes tax exempt financing along with federal tax credits to provide affordable housing to residents with less than 60% of the area’s median income. Bancorp’s investment of $1.1 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2003 fully fund’s Bancorp’s 25% partnership position.

     Deposits and Borrowed Funds. Deposits were $209.8 million at March 31, 2003, compared to $202.6 million at December 31, 2002, an increase of $7.2 million or 3.6%. The increase is primarily in NOW accounts, which includes municipal checking accounts.

     The Bank has an available line of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis (“FHLB”) which provides for advances up to $10.0 million and matures in March 2004. All borrowings from FHLB are collateralized by FHLB stock and non-employee mortgage loans.

     Long-term advances were $54.1 million at March 31, 2003 compared to $57.7 million at December 31, 2002. There were no short-term advances at March 31, 2003 compared to $6.7 million at December 31, 2002.

Capital

     The stockholders’ equity of Bancorp was $28.1 million at March 31, 2003 compared to $27.5 million at December 31, 2002, an increase of $622,364 or 2.27%. The primary component of this increase was net income. Cash dividends during the first quarter of 2003 of $0.08 per share reduced retained earnings by $224,683. The stockholders’ equity was 9.55% of total assets at March 31, 2003.

     The Federal Reserve Board (“FRB”) has adopted risk-based capital guidelines applicable to Bancorp. These guidelines require that financial holding companies, such as Bancorp, maintain capital commensurate with both on and off balance sheet credit risks of their operations. Under the guidelines, a financial holding company must have a minimum ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets of 8.0%.

     In addition, a financial holding company must maintain a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital equal to 4.0% of risk-weighted assets. Tier 1 capital includes common stockholders equity, qualifying perpetual preferred stock and minority interest in equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries less goodwill.

     As a supplement to the risk-based capital requirements, the FRB has also adopted leverage capital ratio requirements. The leverage ratio requirements establish a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to total assets, less goodwill, of 3% for the most highly rated financial holding companies. All other financial holding companies are required to

Asset/Liability Management

     A significant component of the Bank’s earnings is net interest income. The Bank’s asset/liability management strategy is to maximize net interest income over time by reducing the impact of fluctuating interest rates. This is accomplished by matching the mix and maturities of its assets and liabilities. At the same time the Bank’s asset/liability strategies for managing interest rate risk must also accommodate customer demands for particular types of deposit and loan products. The Bank uses various asset/liability management techniques in an attempt to maintain a profitable mix of financial assets and liabilities, provide deposit and loan products that meet the needs of its market area, and maintain control over interest rate risk resulting from changes in interest rates.

     Net interest income is derived from the difference or “spread” between the yield on interest-earning assets and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities. The Bank has sought to reduce its exposure to changes in interest rates by matching more closely the effective maturities and repricings of its interest-sensitive assets and liabilities. At the same time, the Bank’s asset/liability management strategies must also accommodate customer demands for particular types of deposit and loan products.

     While much of the Bank’s asset/liability management efforts involve strategies that increase the rate sensitivity of its loans and investments, such as the sale of long-term fixed rate loans, originations of adjustable rate loans and purchases of adjustable rate mortgage-backed securities or relatively short average life fixed-rate investments, it also uses certain techniques to reduce the rate sensitivity of its deposits and borrowed money. Those techniques include attracting longer-term certificates of deposit when the market will permit, emphasizing core deposits, which are less sensitive to changes in interest rates, and borrowing through long-term FHLB advances. The Bank’s asset/liability management strategy will appropriately change when market rates change.

     The Bank measures its exposure to interest rate fluctuations primarily by using a computer modeling system designed for savings institutions such as the Bank. The model uses assumptions which management believes are reasonable for the analysis. These assumptions include (but are not limited to) prepayment and decay rates based on nine interest rate scenarios. It allows the Bank to adjust its asset-liability mix based on the interest rate risk identified. The analysis estimates the changes in the market value of the Bank’s equity using interest rate change scenarios ranging from +4% to –4%, in 1% increments from current market rates. At March 31, 2003, the following table illustrates

    29,566  

     As the table shows, the Bank’s book value of equity is less than estimated market value in all of the scenarios. That indicates that the Bank is able to withstand fluctuations in market interest rates without posting a significant threat to either the Bank’s stockholders’ equity or the federal deposit insurance system and, therefore, the Bank can be deliberate in its actions to adjust the asset-liability mix. The Bank would meet the regulatory minimum capital requirements in all of the interest-rate scenarios.

     The Bank has an Asset-Liability Management Committee (ALCO) that meets as needed. The purpose of this Committee is to communicate, coordinate, and monitor asset-liability management procedures. The Committee establishes and monitors the volume and mix of both assets and funding sources. The objective is to manage assets and funding sources to produce results consistent with the Bank’s liquidity requirements, capital adequacy, growth, and profitability goals. To accomplish this objective, the ALCO uses internal budget variance reports, forecasts for changes in interest rates and consumer deposit activity, as well as forecasts of loan demand in each of the Bank’s loan types, investment maturities and new investment alternatives, and various other internal and external reports.

     Simulation: The Bank uses a computer-based earnings simulation model to estimate the effects of various interest rate environments on the balance sheet structure and net interest income. These simulation techniques involve changes in interest rate relationships, asset and liability mixes, and prepayment options inherent in financial instruments, as well as interest rate levels in order to quantify risk. The Bank’s sensitivity is estimated by first forecasting the next twelve months of net interest income under an assumed environment of constant market interest rates. Next, immediate parallel interest rate shocks are constructed in the model. The rate shocks reflect changes of equal magnitude to all market interest forecast under each of the rate shock scenarios. The resulting change in net interest income is an indication of the sensitivity change in net earnings to directional changes in market interest rates. This model is based solely on parallel changes in market rates and does not reflect the levels of interest rate risk that may

22


Table of Contents

arise from other factors such as changes in the spreads between key market rates or in the shape of the Treasury yield curve. The net interest income simulation model includes on-balance sheet loan, investment, deposit, and debt instruments.

     The Bank’s Board of Directors compares net interest income sensitivity and has established tolerance limits for fluctuation. At March 31, 2003, the forecasted exposure was within the Bank’s established policy limits, except in falling rate change scenarios. The Bank’s Board of Directors and Management consider further significant rate decreases from March 31, 2003 as unlikely.

Effect of Interest Rate Fluctuations

     Bancorp’s consolidated results of operations depend to a large extent on the Bank’s level of net interest income, which is the difference between interest income earned on its loan and investment portfolios versus the interest paid on deposits and borrowed funds. If the cost of funds increases faster than the yield on its interest-earning assets, net interest income will be reduced.

     The Bank measures its interest rate risk primarily using simulation analysis. This analysis is prepared by the Chief Financial Officer and reviewed by the Asset/Liability Management Committee. The ALCO is comprised of the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and other representatives from operations, branch administration, lending, trust, private banking, and marketing. The Bank’s Board of Directors reviews quarterly reports that estimate the Bank’s sensitivity to changes in interest rates. Sensitivity is estimated for net interest income and market value of portfolio equity.

     While the Bank uses various tools to monitor interest rate risk, it is unable to predict future fluctuations in interest rates or the specific impact thereof. The market value of most of the Bank’s financial assets is sensitive to fluctuations in market interest rates. Fixed-rate investments including mortgage loans and mortgage-backed securities decline in value as interest rates rise. Adjustable-rate loans and securities generally have less market value volatility than do fixed-rate products.

Liquidity

     The Bank maintains certain levels of liquid assets (the most liquid of which are cash and cash equivalents and investment securities) in order to meet demands from loan commitments, savings withdrawals and other obligations. The Bank manages liquidity by maintaining a portion of its liquid assets in overnight accounts and by keeping various maturities in its portfolio of investment securities. The primary sources of liquidity are loan repayments and sales, maturing investments, deposit accounts, and FHLB borrowings.

     Two factors contributed to the increased liquidity at March 31, 2003; low interest rates for residential mortgages and decreased confidence in equity markets. The residential mortgages that have refinanced into low fixed-rate terms have been sold to the secondary mortgage market, providing funds for the Bank to redeploy. The Bank originated commercial mortgage and commercial nonmortgage loans, so the percentage of commercial loans to total loans increased slightly. Decreased investor confidence in equity markets has increased bank deposits nationally, including deposits at the Bank. This increase in deposits provided additional funds the Bank invested in securities and interest-bearing deposits in other banks. Either an increase in loan rates or investor confidence in equity markets could significantly reduce the Bank’s liquidity position.

Cash Flows

     Operating. Cash flows from operating activities are most significantly affected by net income and mortgage banking activities. Net income was $764,976 and $671,998 for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The increase in the gain on sale of loans to $477,520 in the three months ended March 31, 2003 from $285,705 in the three months ended March 31, 2002 is significantly offset by the increase in amortization of intangibles (originated mortgage servicing rights). Loans originated for sale and proceeds from the sale of loans also increased with the historically low mortgage loan rates. Loans originated for sale were $36.5 million and $22.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. This increase in loans originated for sale is primarily due to low residential mortgage rates. Proceeds from the sales of loans were $35.9 million and $26.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Because the Bank generally has a policy of selling long-term fixed rate mortgage loans, the volume of loan sales varies with customer demand for these loans.

     Investing. Cash flows from investing activities are most significantly affected by loans made to customers net of principal payments, changes in the Bank’s investment portfolio, and increases in interest-bearing deposits in banks. For the three months ended March 31 2003 and 2002 there were decreases in loans of $5.5 million and $8.2 million, respectively, primarily due to refinanced loans. Investment purchases and maturities also affect cash flows from investing activities. The Bank’s management maintains investments at levels that provide the Bank with optimal return, risk and liquidity. In the three months ended March 31, 2003, the Bank decreased its holdings in interest-bearing deposits in banks by $7.7 million to $15.4 million. The Bank also purchased $9.0 million

24


Table of Contents

and $1.1 million of other securities and an investment in a limited partnership, respectively, during the three months ended March 31, 2003.

     Financing. Cash flows from financing activities are mostly affected by changes in deposits and FHLB advances. Deposits increased $7.2 million and $11.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The Bank also used FHLB advances for financing its operating and investing activities. The FHLB advances decreased $10.2 million and $9.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

     The long-term debt obligations consist of certificates of deposit and advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank. The above schedule represents principal payments only and does not include interest.

Results of Operations

     Bancorp reported net income of $764,976 or $0.27 per share for the three months ended March 31, 2003 compared to net income of $671,998 or $0.22 per share for the three months ended March 31, 2002. The increase in net income was primarily due to a reduction in the provision for loan losses.

Interest Income

     Three Months Ended March 31, 2003 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2002 Interest income decreased $0.3 million to $4.1 million from $4.4 million. This decrease is primarily due to decreases in the average interest rates earned to 6.43% in 2003 from 7.24% in 2002. The decrease in interest income is likely to reverse when interest rates increase. The Bank increased investment securities and interest-bearing deposits as loans refinanced and were subsequently sold.

Interest Expense

     Three Months Ended March 31, 2003 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2002 Interest expense decreased $0.2 million to $1.9 million from $2.1 million. This was primarily due to the decrease in rates paid on average interest-bearing deposits and FHLB advances. The rate paid on average interest-bearing liabilities decreased to 3.04% from 3.61%. The shift from FHLB borrowings to lower rate deposit accounts also contributed to the decrease in interest expense.

Net Interest Income

     Three Months Ended March 31, 2003 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2002. Net interest income decreased $86,124 to $2.2 million from $2.3 million. This decrease was primarily caused by a decrease in net interest-earning assets to $3.6 million from $6.9 million and a decrease in the net interest margin to 3.43% from 3.73%. The decrease in market interest rates to historically low levels significantly contributed to the decrease in net interest income, as the portfolio has a positive gap (assets reprice more quickly than liabilities).

Provision for Loan Losses

     Three Months Ended March 31, 2003 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2002. The provision for loan losses was $318,688 for the quarter ended March 31, 2003 and $580,132 for the quarter ended March 31, 2002. The provision for loan losses was based upon management’s assessment of relevant factors, including types and amounts of non-performing loans, historical and anticipated loss experience on such types of loans, and current and projected economic conditions.

Noninterest Income

     Three Months Ended March 31, 2003 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2002. Noninterest income was $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003 compared to $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002, an increase of $107,068 or 7.57%. The primary component of noninterest income was mortgage banking activities, which increased to $734,479 in 2003 from $584,642 in 2002. This increase is due to the increase in loan sales during the first quarter of 2003 compared to the first quarter of 2002. Management does not expect refinance activity to continue at the current pace, unless interest rates decrease further. Commission income was $238,963 for the three months ended March 31, 2003 compared to $209,996 for the three months ended March 31, 2002. This increase is due to growth in account relationships at Oakleaf Financial Services, Inc., the Bank’s wholly owned investment subsidiary. During the three months ended March 31, 2003, Bancorp recognized $50,699 increase in cash surrender value of life insurance compared to $88,767 for the same period in the prior year related to insurance policies on key Bank personnel.

Noninterest Expense

     Three Months Ended March 31, 2003 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2002. Noninterest expense was $2.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003 compared to $2.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002, an increase of $135,479. Salaries and employee benefits increased by $54,334 due to staffing changes, salary adjustments and cost of living increases that took effect January 2003. Service bureau expense increased to $205,313 from $158,053 for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, in preparation for conversion to a different service

bureau scheduled for April 2003. The conversion to a new service bureau enhances the technological capability and efficiency of the Bank. Real estate owned expense was $94,395 for the three months ended March 31, 2003 compared to $43,190 for the three months ended March 31, 2002, due to an increase in expenses on multi-family real estate owned.
