See accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements. FIRST BANKS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (1) Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements of First Banks, Inc. and subsidiaries (First Banks) are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements contained in the 1997 annual report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the interim periods presented herein, have been included. Operating results for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the year ending December 31, 1998. First Banks' primary subsidiaries (Subsidiary Banks) are: First Bank, headquartered in St. Louis County, Missouri (First Bank). First Banks America, Inc., headquartered in St. Louis County, Missouri (FBA), and its wholly owned subsidiaries: BankTEXAS N.A., headquartered in Houston, Texas (BankTEXAS). First Bank of California, headquartered in Roseville, California (FB California). CCB Bancorp, Inc., headquartered in Newport Beach, California (CCB), and its wholly owned subsidiary: First Bank & Trust, headquartered in Newport Beach, California (FB&T). First Banks' ownership interest in FBA was 72.6% and 65.9% at June 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, respectively. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of First Banks, Inc. and its subsidiaries, net of minority interests. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain reclassifications of 1997 amounts have been made to conform with the 1998 presentation. (2) Mergers and Acquisitions On June 8, 1998, FBA executed an Agreement in Principle to acquire Redwood Bancorp, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Redwood Bank, for cash consideration of $26.0 million. Redwood Bank is headquartered in San Francisco, California and operates four banking locations in the San Francisco Bay area. Redwood Bank had $153.8 million in total assets, $119.4 million in loans, net of unearned discount, and $139.0 million in deposits at June 30, 1998. FBA anticipates that the transaction, which is subject to various conditions, will be completed by the end of the fourth quarter. On February 2, 1998, FBA completed its merger with First Commercial Bancorp, Inc. (FCB). FCB's wholly owned subsidiary, First Commercial Bank (First Commercial), was also merged into FB California. In the transaction, FCB shareholders received .8888 shares of FBA common stock for each share of FCB common stock that they held. In total, FCB shareholders received approximately 752,000 shares of FBA common stock in the transaction. The transaction provided for First Banks to receive 804,000 shares of FBA common stock in exchange for $10.0 million of FBA's note payable to First Banks, and for the exchange of FCB convertible debentures of $6.5 million, which are owned by First Banks, for comparable debentures of FBA. The merger of FBA and FCB did not have a significant impact on the operations of First Banks. The transaction was accounted for as a business combination of entities under common control. Accordingly, FBA assumed First Banks' 61.48% interest in FCB at its historical cost basis. The remaining 38.52%, or minority interest, owned by unaffiliated parties was recorded at fair value. The excess of the cost over the fair value of the minority interest's share in the fair value of the net assets acquired was $1.6 million and is being amortized over 15 years. On February 2, 1998, FBA completed its acquisition of Pacific Bay Bank, San Pablo, California (Pacific Bay). Under the terms of the Pacific Bay Agreement, Pacific Bay shareholders received $14.00 per share in cash for their stock, an aggregate of $4.2 million. The transaction was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. The excess of the cost over the fair value of the net assets acquired was $1.5 million and is being amortized over 15 years. This transaction was funded from an advance under First Banks' credit agreement with a group of unaffiliated financial institutions. Pacific Bay operates a banking office in San Pablo, California and a loan production office in Lafayette, California. At February 2, 1998, Pacific Bay had total assets of $38.3 million, investment securities of $232,000, loans, net of unearned discount, of $29.7 million and deposits of $35.2 million. Pacific Bay was merged into FB California. On March 19, 1998, First Banks completed its assumption of the deposits and purchase of selected assets of the Solvang, California banking location of Bank of America. The transaction resulted in the acquisition of approximately $15.5 million in deposits and one office which will operate as a branch of FB&T. The excess of the cost over the fair value of the net assets acquired was $1.8 million and is being amortized over 15 years. (3) Regulatory Capital First Banks and the Subsidiary Banks are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal and state banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on First Banks' and the Subsidiary Banks' financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for Prompt Corrective Action, the Subsidiary Banks must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Subsidiary Banks' assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Subsidiary Banks' capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. Quantitative measures established by regulations to ensure capital adequacy require the Subsidiary Banks to maintain certain minimum ratios. The Subsidiary Banks are required to maintain a minimum risk-based capital to risk-weighted assets ratio of 8.0%, with at least 4.0% being "Tier 1" capital (as defined in the regulations). In addition, a minimum leverage ratio (Tier 1 capital to average assets) of 3.0% plus an additional cushion of 100 to 200 basis points is expected. In order to be considered well capitalized under Prompt Corrective Action provisions, a bank is required to maintain a risk weighted asset ratio of at least 10%, a Tier 1 to risk weighted assets ratio of at least 6%, and a leverage ratio of at least 5%. As of December 31, 1997, the date of the most recent notification from First Banks' primary regulator, each of the Subsidiary Banks was categorized as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for Prompt Corrective Action. At June 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, First Banks' and the Subsidiary Banks' capital ratios were as follows:

FBA made certain guarantees and commitments relating to the Preferred Securities. FBA's proceeds from the issuance of the Preferred Securities, net of underwriting fees and offering expenses, were approximately $44.0 million. Distributions payable on the Preferred Securities will be payable quarterly in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year commencing September 30, 1998. The distributions will be recorded as a noninterest expense in the consolidated financial statements. The proceeds from the offering will be used to repay outstanding indebtedness under First Banks' note payable to a group of unaffiliated banks, for acquisitions (including the pending acquisition of Redwood Bancorp) and for general corporate purposes. Available proceeds will be temporarily invested in short-term securities. Item 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations The discussion herein contains certain forward looking statements regarding the financial condition, results of operations and business of First Banks. These forward looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, not all of which can be predicted or anticipated. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by such forward looking statements include general market conditions, conditions affecting the banking industry generally and factors having a specific impact on First Banks, including but not limited to fluctuations in interest rates and in the economy; the impact of laws and regulations applicable to First Banks and changes therein; competitive conditions in the markets in which First Banks and the Subsidiary Banks conduct their operations; and the ability of the Company to respond to changes in technology. Additional factors potentially affecting First Banks' results were identified in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Readers should not place undue reliance on any forward looking statements herein. General First Banks is a registered bank holding company, incorporated in Missouri in 1978 and headquartered in St. Louis County, Missouri. At June 30, 1998, First Banks had $4.28 billion in total assets; $3.23 billion in total loans, net of unearned discount; $3.78 billion in total deposits; and $244 million in total stockholders' equity. Through the Subsidiary Banks, First Banks offers a broad range of commercial and personal banking services including certificate of deposit accounts, individual retirement and other time deposit accounts, checking and other demand deposit accounts, interest checking accounts, savings accounts and money market accounts. Loans include commercial, financial, agricultural, real estate construction and development, commercial and residential real estate and consumer and installment loans. Other financial services include mortgage banking, discount brokerage, credit-related insurance, automatic teller machines, safe deposit boxes, cash management, lockbox and trust services offered by certain Subsidiary Banks.
The following table lists the Subsidiary Banks at June 30, 1998: Number Loans, net of of unearned Total Subsidiary Banks locations Total assets discount deposits ---------------- --------- ------------ -------- -------- (dollars expressed in thousands) First Bank.............................. 98 $ 2,897,457 2,288,800 2,602,307 FBA: BankTEXAS............................ 6 268,434 177,418 231,359 FB California........................ 11 401,841 291,774 355,084 CCB: FB&T................................. 18 694,617 475,283 610,798
Financial Condition First Banks' total assets increased by $110 million to $4.28 billion from $4.17 billion at June 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, respectively. This increase is primarily attributable to the increase in deposits of $100 million to $3.78 billion from $3.68 billion at June 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, respectively. The funds generated by the increase in deposits along with the funds provided by the decrease in investment securities of $132 million during the same period were primarily utilized to fund loan growth of $230 million. Results of Operations Net Income Net income for the three months ended June 30, 1998 was $6.9 million, compared to $7.9 million for the same period in 1997. While net income decreased, earnings per share on a diluted basis increased to $274.34 from $267.97 for the three months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 was $14.2 million and $15.7 million, or $568.22 and $534.73 per share on a diluted basis, respectively. The increase in earnings per share reflects the effect of the redemption of First Banks' Class C preferred stock in December 1997, and the resulting reduction of First Banks' quarterly dividend requirement by approximately $1.2 million and $2.4 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1998, respectively. However, the funds required for the redemption were borrowed, resulting in an increase in interest expense of $900,000 and $1.9 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1998, respectively. Since the Class C dividend requirement is not deducted in the determination of net income, whereas interest expense is, the effect of this was to reduce 1998 net income by $585,000 and $1.24 million for the three and six month periods, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 1997. The results for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1998 include the additional costs associated with Surety Bank's and Pacific Bay Bank's data processing and back-office conversions to First Banks' systems and procedures. Surety Bank, Vallejo, California, and Pacific Bay Bank, San Pablo, California, were acquired in December 1997 and February 1998, respectively. Net Interest Income Net interest income (expressed on a tax-equivalent basis) improved to $40.1 million, or 4.07% of average interest earning assets, for the three months ended June 30, 1998, from $35.6 million, or 4.10% of average interest earning assets, for the same period in 1997. For the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, net interest income (expressed on a tax-equivalent basis) was $78.6 million, or 4.06%, and $69.2 million, or 4.04%, of average interest earning assets, respectively. The increased net interest income for 1998 is attributable to the increase in average interest-earning assets of $459.4 million and $453.4 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1998, respectively, compared to the same periods in 1997. The increase is attributable to loans which increased on average by $352.0 million and $304.1 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1998, respectively, over the same periods in 1997. Contributing further to the improved net interest income was the decrease in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities to 4.81% and 4.86% for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1998, compared to 4.94% and 4.91% for the same periods in 1997, respectively. This reflects the continual process of realigning the deposit portfolios of acquired entities and the overall increase in the percentage of demand deposits and savings deposits to total deposits. Offsetting the increase in net interest income is the amortization and periodic costs of hedging the interest rate risk position of First Banks. The cost of hedging totaled $991,000 and $2.0 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1998, compared to $1.2 million and $2.4 million for the same periods in 1997. The decrease in the cost of hedging for 1998 is attributable to the reduced level of interest rate risk resulting from the realignment of the loan portfolio, combined with the gradual changes in the composition of the investment securities portfolios from mortgage-backed securities to U.S. Treasury and generic U.S. government agencies securities, and changes in the composition of interest-bearing liabilities. The following table sets forth, on a tax-equivalent basis, certain information relating to First Banks' average balance sheet, and reflects the average yield earned on interest-earning assets, the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities and the resulting net interest income for the three and six month periods ended June 30:

18 Provision for Possible Loan Losses The provision for possible loan losses was $1.9 million and $4.0 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1998, compared to $3.2 million and $6.0 million for the same periods in 1997, respectively. The decrease in the provision for possible loan losses is primarily attributable to loan loss experience. For the six months ended June 30, 1998, First Banks experienced net loan recoveries of $247,000, in comparison to net loan charge-offs of $5.1 million for the same period in 1997. The acquisition of Pacific Bay provided $885,000 in additional allowance for possible loan losses. Tables summarizing nonperforming assets, past due loans and charge-off experience are presented under "--Lending and Credit Management" of this Form 10-Q. Noninterest Income Noninterest income was $8.4 million and $16.2 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1998, respectively, compared to $5.7 million and $10.9 million for the same period in 1997. The largest component of noninterest income is service charges on deposit accounts and other non-yield customer service fees. Service charges on deposit accounts and customer service fees were $3.5 million and $6.9 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1998, respectively, compared to $3.0 million and 6.0 million for the same periods in 1997. The increase in service charges corresponds to the increase in deposit balances provided both by internal growth and the acquisitions of Surety Bank and Pacific Bay. The gain on mortgage loans sold and held for sale increased to $863,000 and $1.9 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1998, from $87,000 and $208,000 for the same periods in 1997, respectively. This increase is attributable to an increased volume of loans held for sale precipitated by the increased demand for fixed rate residential mortgage loans and the overall expansion of First Banks' mortgage banking activities in California. Other income was $2.1 million and $4.2 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1998, compared to $1.5 million and $2.4 million for the same periods in 1997. The primary component of the increase is $761,000 and $1.4 million recognized as income on a bank-owned life insurance policy for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1998, respectively. Noninterest Expense Noninterest expense was $35.0 million and $67.1 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1998, respectively, compared to $27.8 million and $52.9 million for the same periods in 1997. The increase in noninterest expense is attributable to the acquisitions of Surety Bank and Pacific Bay and the continued expansion of First Banks' commercial and retail functions within existing markets. Salaries and employee benefits have increased to $14.4 million and $27.3 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1998, from $10.6 million and $20.9 million for the same periods in 1997. The increase is attributable to the newly acquired banks and First Banks' continued commitment to expanding its commercial and retail business development capabilities. Data processing fees for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1998 were $3.0 million and $6.0 million, compared to $2.4 million and $3.5 million for the same periods in 1997, respectively. Effective April 1, 1997, First Services, L.P., a limited partnership indirectly owned by First Banks' Chairman and his immediate family, began providing data processing and related services for First Banks. These services were previously provided by FirstServ, Inc. a wholly owned subsidiary of First Banks. As a result, expenses related to data processing and related services were recorded in various noninterest expense categories for the periods prior to April 1, 1997. Subsequent to that date, these expenses are reflected as data processing expenses. Other noninterest expense for the six months ended June 30, 1998 includes $1.1 million representing a one-time charitable contribution to the Affordable Housing Assistance Program. In addition, the Subsidiary Banks settled two lawsuits resulting in approximately $500,000 being charged to other noninterest expense during the six month period ended June 30, 1998. Lending and Credit Management Interest earned on the loan portfolio is the primary source of income of First Banks. Total loans, net of unearned discount, represented 75.6% and 72.1% of total assets as of June 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, respectively. Total loans, excluding loans held for sale and net of unearned discount, increased by $185.7 million to $3.13 billion at June 30, 1998, from $2.94 billion at December 31, 1997. The increase reflects continued growth within corporate lending of $225.8 million, offset by the decrease of the residential mortgage and consumer and installment loan portfolios of $74.9 million and $968,000, respectively, at June 30, 1998 in comparison to December 31, 1997. These decreases are attributable to the reductions of new loan origination volumes that are held for investment and the continued repayment of principal on the existing portfolios.
The following is a summary of nonperforming assets by category: June 30, December 31, 1998 1997 ---- ---- (dollars expressed in thousands) Commercial, financial and agricultural....................................... $ 7,875 6,025 Real estate construction and development..................................... 5,102 4,097 Real estate mortgage......................................................... 23,522 19,305 Consumer and installment..................................................... 91 94 ---------- ----------- Total nonperforming loans........................................... 36,590 29,521 Other real estate............................................................ 5,815 7,324 ---------- ----------- Total nonperforming assets.......................................... $ 42,405 36,845 ========== =========== Loans, net of unearned discount.............................................. $3,232,240 3,002,200 ========== =========== Loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing........................................................ $ 2,738 2,725 ========== =========== Asset Quality Ratios: Allowance for possible loan losses to loans .............................. 1.72% 1.68% Nonperforming loans to loans.............................................. 1.13 0.98 Allowance for possible loan losses to nonperforming loans................................................. 151.93 171.10 Nonperforming assets to loans and other real estate....................... 1.31 1.22 ========== ===========
Nonperforming loans, consisting of loans on nonaccrual status and restructured loans, were $36.6 million at June 30, 1998 in comparison to $29.5 million at December 31, 1997. The increase is primarily attributable to the modest increase in corporate banking loans, including commercial and financial, construction and commercial real estate loans, and the loans obtained through the acquisition of Pacific Bay. The acquired allowance for possible loan losses totaled $885,000 at the acquisition date. Impaired loans, consisting of nonaccrual loans, were $33.8 million and $24.1 million at June 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, respectively.

The allowance for possible loan losses is monitored on a monthly basis. Each month, credit administration provides First Banks' management with detailed lists of loans on the watch list and summaries of the entire loan portfolio of each Subsidiary Bank by risk rating. These are coupled with analyses of changes in the risk profiles of the portfolios, changes in past due and nonperforming loans and changes in watch list and classified loans over time. In this manner, the overall increases or decreases in the levels of risk in the portfolios are monitored continually. Factors are applied to the loan portfolios for each category of loan risk to determine acceptable levels of allowance for possible loan losses. These factors are derived primarily from the actual loss experience of the Subsidiary Banks and from published national surveys of norms in the industry. The calculated allowances required for the portfolios are then compared to the actual allowance balances to determine the provisions necessary to maintain the allowances at appropriate levels. In addition, management exercises judgment in its analysis of determining the overall level of the allowance for possible losses. In its analysis, management considers the change in the portfolio, including growth and composition, and the economic conditions of the regions in which First Banks operates. Based on this quantitative and qualitative analysis, the allowance for possible loan losses is adjusted. Such adjustments are reflected in the consolidated statements of income. Interest Rate Risk Management
Derivative financial instruments held by First Banks for purposes of managing interest rate risk are summarized as follows: June 30, 1998 December 31, 1997 ---------------------- -------------------- Notional Credit Notional Credit amount exposure amount exposure ------ -------- ------ -------- (dollars expressed in thousands) Interest rate swap agreement.................. $ 15,000 57 -- -- Interest rate floor agreements................ 70,000 5 70,000 26 Interest rate cap agreement................... 10,000 131 10,000 222 Forward commitments to sell mortgage-backed securities.................. 78,000 -- 60,000 --
The notional amounts of derivative financial instruments do not represent amounts exchanged by the parties and, therefore, are not a measure of First Banks' credit exposure through its use of derivative financial instruments. The amounts exchanged are determined by reference to the notional amounts and the other terms of the derivatives. First Bank utilizes interest rate swap agreements to alter the repricing characteristics of certain interest-bearing liabilities to correspond more closely with its assets, with the objective of stabilizing net interest income over time. The utilization of swaps decreased with the change in the composition of the balance sheet, resulting in no open swap agreements as of December 31, 1997. The net interest expense for these agreements, consisting solely of amortization of deferred losses, was $2.0 million and $1.5 million for the six month periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Deferred losses on terminated swap agreements are being amortized over the remaining life of the swap agreement. If all or any portion of the underlying liabilities are repaid, the related deferred losses are charged to operations. At June 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, the unamortized balance of these deferred losses were $7.4 million and $9.4 million, respectively. In June 1998, First Bank entered into a $15.0 million interest rate swap agreement (Swap Agreement) to effectively shorten the repricing characteristics of certain interest-bearing liabilities to correspond more closely with its assets, with the objective of stabilizing net interest income over time. The Swap Agreement, which matures on June 11, 2002, provides for First Bank to receive a fixed rate of interest of 5.99% and pay an adjustable rate equivalent to the 90 day London interbank offering rate (LIBOR). The net amount due to First Bank under the Swap Agreement was $2,000 at June 30, 1998. First Banks has interest rate cap and floor agreements outstanding to limit the interest expense associated with certain interest-bearing liabilities. At June 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, the unamortized costs for these agreements were $224,000 and $290,000, respectively, and were included in other assets. Derivative financial instruments issued by First Banks consist of commitments to originate fixed-rate loans. Commitments to originate fixed-rate loans consist primarily of residential real estate loans. These loan commitments, net of estimated underwriting fallout, and loans held for sale are hedged with forward contracts to sell mortgage-backed securities. Liquidity The liquidity of First Banks and its Subsidiary Banks is the ability to maintain a cash flow which is adequate to fund operations, service debt obligations and meet other commitments on a timely basis. The primary sources of funds for liquidity are derived from customer deposits, loan payments, maturities, sales of investments and earnings. In addition, First Banks and its Subsidiary Banks may avail themselves of more volatile sources of funds through issuance of certificates of deposit in denominations of $100,000 or more, federal funds borrowed, securities sold under agreements to repurchase and other borrowings, including First Banks' $90 million credit agreement with a group of unaffiliated financial institutions. The aggregate funds acquired from those sources were $352.0 million at June 30, 1998 and $328.7 million at December 31, 1997. At June 30, 1998, First Banks' more volatile sources of funds mature as follows: (dollars expressed in thousands) Three months or less.......................... $ 149,694 Over three months through six months.......... 41,044 Over six months through twelve months......... 74,043 Over twelve months............................ 87,202 --------- Total....................................... $ 351,983 ========= Management believes the future earnings of its Subsidiary Banks will be sufficient to provide funds for growth and to permit the distribution of dividends to First Banks sufficient to meet First Banks' operating and debt service requirements both on a short-term and long-term basis and to pay the dividends on the Preferred Securities. Year 2000 First Banks and the Subsidiary Banks are subject to risks associated with the "Year 2000" problem, a term which refers to uncertainties about the ability of various data processing hardware and software systems to interpret dates correctly after the beginning of the Year 2000. Generally, most software used by First Banks is purchased from outside vendors. Consequently, First Banks has been working with these vendors to determine whether these issues are being adequately addressed. First Banks has been developing testing procedures and schedules to verify the ability of equipment and software to handle Year 2000 issues. This testing will be implemented during the third and fourth quarters of 1998. Certain equipment known to be incompatible with Year 2000 is scheduled for replacement during the fourth quarter of 1998 and first quarter of 1999. First Banks' process of evaluating potential effects of Year 2000 issues on customers of the Subsidiary Banks is in its early stages, and it is therefore impossible to quantify the potential adverse effects of incompatible systems on customers of the Subsidiary Banks. The failure of a commercial bank customer to prepare adequately for Year 2000 compatibility could have a significant adverse effect on such customer's operations and profitability, in turn inhibiting its ability to repay loans in accordance with their terms or requiring the use of its deposited funds. Until sufficient information is accumulated from customers of the banks to enable First Banks to assess the degree to which customers' operations are susceptible to potential problems, First Banks will be unable to quantify the potential effect on its commercial customers. In addressing the uncertainty, First Banks has revised its methodology with respect to the adequacy of its allowance for possible loan losses to include an allocation for the estimated risks associated with the Year 2000 issue. Effects of New Accounting Standards First Banks adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 130 - Reporting Comprehensive Income (SFAS 130) retroactively on January 1, 1998. SFAS 130 established standards for reporting and displaying income and its components (revenues, gains, and losses) in a full set of general purpose financial statements. The statement requires all items that are required to be recognized under accounting standards as components of comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. Comparative financial statements provided for earlier periods have been restated to reflect the application of SFAS 130. The implementation of SFAS 130 did not have material impact on First Banks' consolidated financial statements. During 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 131 - Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information. The statement establishes standards for the way public business enterprises report information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires those enterprises to report selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports issued to shareholders. Additionally, the statement establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas, and major customers superseding SFAS No. 14 - Financial Reporting for Segments of a Business Enterprise. First Banks is currently evaluating information required in the statement and believes expanded disclosure information will be required to be included in First Banks' consolidated financial statements for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133 - Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS 133). SFAS 133 establishes standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. It requires an entity to recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those instruments at fair value. SFAS 133 is effective for all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. Earlier application of SFAS 133 is encouraged but should not be applied retroactively to financial statements of prior periods. First Banks is currently evaluating the requirements and impact of SFAS 133. Part II- OTHER INFORMATION Item 6.
