SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position of Community Financial Holding Corporation (the Corporation) and its wholly owned subsidiary Community National Bank of New Jersey (the Bank) as of September 30, 1997 and 1996 and the results of their operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996. The accounting policies and reporting practices of the Corporation are in accordance with generally accepted accounting principals and have been followed on a consistent basis. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q and accordingly do not include all of the detailed schedules, information and notes necessary for a fair presentation of financial condition, results of operations and cash flows in accordance with generally accepted accounting principals. This quarterly report should be read in conjunction with Form 10-K dated December 31, 1996, which contains audited consolidated financial statements of the Corporation. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. NOTE 2. EARNINGS PER SHARE Earnings per share was calculated based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the respective periods. The computation of the September 30, 1997 and 1996 weighted average number of common shares gives retroactive recognition to a 5% stock dividend declared on November 7, 1996 payable to shareholders of record on December 1, 1996. The weighted average numbers of shares used in the computation for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 was 1,057,871 and 1,028,695, respectively. On March 3, 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 128 "Earnings Per Share" ("EPS"). This statement, which supersedes APB Opinion No. 15, simplifies the standards for computing EPS and makes them comparable to international standards. SFAS No. 128 replaces the current "primary" and "fully diluted" earnings per share with "basic" and "diluted" earnings per share. Basic EPS is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock, or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the company. Diluted EPS is computed similarly to fully diluted EPS pursuant to APB Opinion No. 15. SFAS No. 128 is effective for financial statements issued for the periods ending December 31, 1997. Early application is not permitted and prior period restatement is required. Management does not believe application of this standard will have a material impact on the Corporations reported EPS. NOTE 3. SECURITIES On January 1, 1994, the Corporation adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, (FAS 115) "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities", which requires, among other things, that debt and equity securities classified as available for sale be reported at fair value with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported in a separate component of shareholders' equity, net of income taxes. The net effect of 7 unrealized gains or losses, caused by marking an available for sale portfolio to market, causes fluctuations in the level of shareholders' equity and related financial ratios as market interest rates cause the fair value of fixed rate securities to fluctuate. The unrealized loss on securities available for sale was $10,000 at September 30, 1997 as compared to a loss of $9,000 at December 31, 1996. This increase is primarily due to the current interest rate environment and the short term nature of portfolio maturities. NOTE 4. LOANS HELD FOR SALE The Bank originates residential real estate loans and sells primarily fixed rate loans to various investors such as mortgage companies and agencies. The Bank has purchase committments at par value for all loans held for sale. The interest income earned from the loan closing date to the date of the sale is recorded as Interest And Fees On Loans. NOTE 5. LOANS In May 1993, FASB issued SFAS 114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan" and in October 1994, FASB issued SFAS 118, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan - Income Recognition and Disclosures," an amendment of SFAS 114. Under SFAS 114 and 118, "impaired" loans must be measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loans' effective interest rate or, as a practical expedient, at the loans' observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. Based on management's analysis, the adoption of SFAS 114 and 118, which is effective beginning in 1995, has not had and is not expected to have a material effect on the Corporation's consolidated financial statements. 8 MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OVERVIEW The Corporation reported net income for the first nine months of 1997 of $547,000, a decrease of $167,000 or 23.4% when compared to the first nine months of 1996. The decrease in earnings was due primarily to an increase in operating expenses associated with four branch locations which were acquired in 1996. The Corporation opened branches in September 1996, February 1997, May 1997 and September 1997. The increase in operating expenses was partially offset by increases in net interest income and fees and service charges. The Corporation also reported net income of $199,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1997, a decrease of $27,000 or 11.8% when compared to the three months ended September 30, 1996. The decrease in earnings was due primarily to an increase in operating expenses due primarily to additional branch locations. The increase in operating expenses was partially offset by increases in net interest income and fees and service charges. Net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 was $4.6 million, an increase of $423,000 or 9.1% over the first nine months of 1996. Non-interest income for the first nine months of 1997 was $876,000, an increase of $208,000 or 31.1% over the first nine months of 1996. Non-interest expense was $4.6 million for the first nine months of 1997, an increase of $1.0 million or 28.1% over the first nine months of 1996. Net interest income for the three months ended September 30, 1997 was $1.6 million, an increase of $109,000 or 7.3% over the three months ended September 30, 1996. The provision for loan losses was $90,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1997, a decrease of $30,000 or 25.0% from the provision of $120,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1996. Non-interest income for the three months ended September 30, 1997 was $349,000, an increase of $118,000 or 50.9% over the three months ended September 30, 1996. Non-interest expenses for the three months ended September 30, 1997 were $1.6 million, an increase of $384,000 or 30.8% as compared to the three months ended September 30, 1996. Expressed on a per share basis (after giving retroactive effect to the payment of a 5% stock dividend in 1996), net income for the first nine months of 1997 was $0.52 per share compared to $0.69 per share for the first nine months of 1996, a decrease of 24.6%. Net income for the three months ended September 30, 1997 was $0.19 per share compared to $0.22 per share for the three months ended September 30, 1996, a decrease of 13.6%. Book value per share as of September 30, 1997 was $10.86 an increase of 5.23% from book value per share of $10.32 at September 30, 1996, on a fully diluted per share basis. The Corporations' assets totalled $139.1 million at September 30, 1997, an increase of $12.5 million or 9.9% over total assets of $126.5 million at December 31, 1996. The increase was due primarily to growth in deposits which increased $14.4 million or 12.9% from December 31, 1996 primarily from increased market share in the Corporations' primary service area. The increase in deposits was partially offset by securities sold under repurchase agreements which decreased $2.3 million or 71.6% from December 31, 1996. The increase in deposits occurred primarily in demand deposits which increased $14.2 million or 20.0% from $70.9 million at December 31, 1996 to $85.1 million at September 30, 1997. Loans were $83.1 million at September 30, 1997 compared to $72.4 million at December 31, 1996, an increase of $10.7 million or 14.8%. Cash and cash equivalents, including federal funds sold, decreased $3.8 million or 23.0% to $12.6 million at September 30, 1997 from $16.3 million at December 31, 1996. The investment portfolio was $36.5 million at September 30, 1997, an increase of $3.8 million or 11.5% from $32.7 million at December 31, 1996. The unrealized loss on securities available for sale at September 30, 1997, net of taxes, was $10,000 9 as compared to the loss of $9,000 at December 31, 1996. The increase in the amount of loss on securities available for sale is due primarily to the short term maturities of the available for sale portfolio and the current nature of the interest rate environment. Loans held for sale were $967,000 at September 30, 1997, a decrease of $338,000 or 25.9% as compared to $1.3 million at December 31, 1996. Loans held for sale are residential mortgage loans originated by the Corporations' subsidary bank for which commitments for sale at par have been obtained. Bank premises and equipment at September 30, 1997 were $4.8 million, an increase of $1.7 million or 54.9% from $3.1 million at December 31, 1996. The increase in bank premises and equipment is primarily related to improvements and renovations at the branches that were purchased in 1996. Other assets increased $475,000 or 118.2% from $402,000 at December 31, 1996 to $876,000 at September 30, 1997. The increase in other assets occurred primarily as a result of the Banks' purchase of mortgage servicing rights on March 1, 1997. Mortgage servicing rights increased $247,000 from $61,000 at December 31, 1996 to $308,000 at September 30, 1997. NET INTEREST INCOME The principal source of revenue for the Corporation is net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between interest income earned on loans and other interest-earning assets and interest expense paid on deposits and borrowings. Changes in the volume and mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, as well as their respective yields and rates, have a significant impact on the level of net interest income. Net interest income was $4.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1997. This represents a 10.1% increase when compared to net interest income of $4.2 million for the same period in 1996. Net interest income for the three months ended September 30, 1997 was $1.6 million. This represents an 7.3% increase when compared to net interest income of $1.5 million for the same period in 1996. Average interest-earning assets for the first nine months of 1997 were $115.0 million, an increase of $8.4 million or 7.9% as compared to the first nine months of 1996. The most significant increase in average earning assets occurred in the loan portfolio. The loan portfolio average balance for the first nine months of 1997 was $76.0 million, an increase of $10.7 million or 16.4% as compared to the first nine months of 1996. This increase occurred primarily in residential mortgage loans and was funded primarily from an increase in deposits. Average interest-earning assets for the three months ended September 30, 1997 were $119.8 million, an increase of $9.2 million or 8.3% as compared to the three months ended September 30, 1996. The most significant increase in average earning assets occurred in the loan portfolio. The loan portfolio average balance for the three months ended September 30, 1997 was $79.6 million, an increase of $11.3 million or 16.6% as compared to the three months ended September 30, 1996. This increase also occurred primarily in residential mortgage loans and was funded primarily from an increase in deposits. The positive impact on net interest income from increased interest-earning assets for the first nine months of 1997 as compared to the first nine months of 1996 was also enhanced by a decrease in interest-bearing liabilities. Average interest-bearing liabilities for the first nine months of 1997 were $79.0 million, a decrease of $3.9 million or 4.7% as compared to the first nine months of 1996. The most significant decrease in interest-bearing liabilities occurred in time deposits and securities sold under repurchase agreements. The time deposits average balance for the first nine months of 1997 was $37.0 million, a decrease of $1.1 million or 2.8% from the first nine months of 1996. The average balance for securities sold under repurchase agreements for the first nine months of 1997 was $1.1 million, a decrease of $2.1 million or 64.8% as compared to the first nine months of 1996. 10 The positive impact on net interest income from increased interest-earning assets for the three months ended September 30, 1997 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 1996 was partially offset by an increase in interest-bearing liabilities. Average interest-bearing liabilities for the three months ended September 30, 1997 were $87.0 million, an increase of $4.1 million or 5.0% as compared to the three months ended September 30, 1996. The most significant increase in interest-bearing liabilities occurred in interest-bearing demand deposit accounts. The average balance for interest-bearing demand deposit accounts for the three months ended September 30, 1997 was $45.0 million, an increase of $3.8 million or 9.3% as compared to the three months ended September 30, 1996. Net interest margin is calculated as the tax-equivalent net interest income divided by the average earning assets and represents the Corporations' net yield on its earning assets. The net interest margin increased from 5.38% to 5.55% for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1997, respectively. This increase is primarily resultant from the interest yield of interest-earning assets which increased 7 basis points from 8.01% to 8.08% for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1997, respectively. The most significant increase in yield occurred in the investment portfolio. The yield from the investment portfolio increased 37 basis points from 6.17% to 6.54%. In addition, the yield from federal funds sold increased 20 basis points from 5.30% for the first nine months of 1996 to 5.50% for the first nine months of 1997. These increases in interest yields were partially offset by a decrease in the yield from loans which declined 37 basis points from 9.25% to 8.88% for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1997, respectively. Average interest earning assets for the first nine months of 1997 increased $8.4 million or 8.4% from $106.5 million for the first nine months of 1996 also partially offsetting increases in interest yields. The increase yield from interest earning assets was also partially offset by the cost of average interest bearing deposits which increased 16 basis points to 3.65% for the first nine months of 1997 as compared to 3.49% for the first nine months of 1996. The most significant increase in interest rates was in the rate paid for time deposit (savings and certificates of deposit) balances which increased 39 basis points from 4.05% to 4.44% for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1997, respectively. The net interest margin for the three months ended September 30, 1997 was 5.52%, an increase of 7 basis points from 5.45% for the three months ended September 30, 1996. This increase is primarily resultant from an increase in the interest yield from interest earning assets of 3 basis points from 8.04% to 8.07% for the three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1997, respectively. The most significant increase in interest yield was in the securities portfolio which increased 18 basis points from 6.36% to 6.54% for the three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1997, respectively. The interest yield from federal funds sold also increased 28 basis points from 5.27% to 5.55% for the three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1997, respectively. Partially offsetting the increase in yield from the securities portfolio and federal funds sold was the loan portfolio for which the yield decreased 37 basis points from 9.24% to 8.87% for the three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1997, respectively. Average interest-earning assets for the three months ended September 30, 1997 increased $9.2 million or 8.3% from $110.6 for the three months ended September 30, 1996 also partially offsetting increases in interest yields. The net increased yield from interest earning assets was also partially offset by a slight increase in the rate paid for interest bearing deposits which increased 4 basis points from 3.45% for the three months ended September 30, 1996 to 3.49% for the three months ended September 30 1997. This increase was primarily resultant from the rate paid for interest bearing demand deposits which increased 14 basis points from 2.81% for the three months ended September 30, 1996 to 2.95% for the three months ended September 30, 1997. 11 The table below illustrates the changes in interest rate margin and interest rate spread based on average amounts outstanding for the nine and three months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996.

Net interest income is also affected by the mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing and non-interest bearing liabilities. Average loans, which are the highest yielding earning assets, for the nine months ending September 30, 1997 were 59.5% of average assets as compared to 56.1% of average assets for the nine months ending September 30, 1996. The average balance for certificates of deposit and repurchase agreements, which are the highest yielding liabilities, for the nine months ending September 30, 1997 were 19.1% of average assets as compared to 21.5% for the nine months ending September 30, 1996. Average non-interest bearing deposits for the nine months ending September 30, 1997 were 29.0% of average assets as compared to 21.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 1996. The average balance for non-interest bearing deposits was $37.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 as compared to $25.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1996, an increase of $11.7 million or 46.5%. Average loans for the three months ended September 30, 1997 were 59.4% of average assets as compared to 56.4% of average assets for the three months ended September 30, 1996. The average balance for certificates of deposit and repurchase agreements for the three months ended September 30, 1997 was 17.9% of average assets as compared to 21.0% for the three months ended September 30, 1996. Average non-interest demand deposit balances for the three months ended September 30, 1997 were 26.1% of average assets as compared to 22.4% for the three months ended September 30, 1996. The average balance for non-interest demand deposits was $35.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 1997 as compared to $27.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 1996, an increase of $8.0 million or 29.5%. NON-INTEREST INCOME Non-interest income was $876,000, an increase of 31.1% or $208,000 for the first nine months of 1997 compared to $668,000 for the first nine months of 1996. A significant component of non-interest income is fee income generated by the Corporations' Residential Mortgage Department. This fee income was $361,000 for the first nine months of 1997, compared to $187,000 for the first nine months of 1996. Service charges on depositor accounts was $449,000 for the first nine months of 1997 an increase of 22.0% from $368,000 for the first nine months of 1996. Non-interest income was $349,000, an increase of 22.0% or $81,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1997 compared to $231,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1996. Fee income from the Residential Mortgage Department was $166,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1997 as compared to $75,000 12 for the three months ended September 30, 1996. Service charges on depositor accounts was $170,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1997 an increase of $41,000 or 31.6% from $129,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1996. The Corporation had approximately 11,400 demand deposit accounts at September 30, 1997, an increase of 3,500 accounts or 45.2% from September 30, 1996. NON-INTEREST EXPENSES Non-interest expense increased $1.0 million or 28.1% in the first nine months of 1997 compared to the first nine months of 1996. Non-interest expense increased $384,000 or 30.8% for the three months ended September 30, 1997 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 1996. Expenditures related to salaries and occupancy and equipment are the primary components of non-interest expense and represent the largest portion of the increase. Salaries and benefits increased 31.5% or $564,000 in the first nine months of 1997 compared to the first nine months of 1996. Salaries and benefits increased 36.8% or $228,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1997 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 1996. These increases were due primarily to staff additions for the residential mortgage department, the addition of four branch locations as well as merit increases in salaries. Occupancy and equipment expenses increased $219,000 or 38.7% in the first nine months of 1997 compared to the first nine months of 1996. Occupancy and equipment expenses increased $89,000 or 46.8% for the three months ended September 30, 1997 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 1996. These increases were primarily due to the branch expansion. Data Processing expense increased $57,000 or 21.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1996. Data processing expense increased $19,000 or 21.1% for the three months ended September 30, 1997 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 1996. These increases were primarily the result of increased transaction processing costs associated with growth of the depositor base. Advertising expenses increased $15,000 or 13.3% to $129,000 for the nine months ending September 30, 1997 as compared to $114,000 for the nine months ending September 30, 1996. Advertising expenses also increased $3,000 or 8.3% to $39,000 for the three months ending September 30, 1997 as compared to $36,000 for the three months ending September 30, 1996. These increases are due primarily to increased promotional activities associated with the branch expansion. A primary component in the $148,000 or 17.9% increase in other operating expenses for the first nine months of 1997 as compared to the first nine months of 1996 is loan processing expenses which for the first nine months of 1997 increased $80,000 from the first nine months of 1996 due to increased loan activity, amortization of purchased mortgage servicing rights and mortgage servicing expense. Audit expenses also increased $17,000 with implementation of an internal audit function during 1996. Expenses for supplies increased $38,000, insurance expense increased $15,000, telephone expense increased $19,000 and postage expense increased $15,000 for the nine months ending September 30, 1997 as compared to the nine months ending September 30, 1996 primarily as a result of additional branch locations and growth of the Bank. These increases were partially offset by a reduction in other real estate expense and losses of $64,000 for the first nine months of 1997 as compared to the first nine months of 1996. INCOME TAXES Income taxes decreased $195,000 or 58.8% to $137,000 from $332,000 in the 13 first nine months of 1997 and 1996, respectively and decreased $101,000 from $122,000 for the three months ending September 30, 1996 to $21,000 for the three months ending September 30, 1997. The decrease resulted primarily from a lower level of pre-tax income along with a higher level of non-taxable income. Non-taxable income, primarily from local municipal Bond Anticipation Notes, was $281,000 for the first nine months of 1997, an increase of $117,000 from $165,000 for the first nine months of 1996. The effective tax rates for the first nine months of 1997 and 1996 were 20.0% and 31.7% respectively. PROVISIONS FOR POSSIBLE LOAN LOSSES The Corporation determines the provision for possible loan losses through a quarterly analysis of the adequacy of the loan loss reserve. Factors such as economic conditions and trends, the volume of non-performing loans, concentrations of credit risk, adverse situations that may affect a borrower's ability to pay, and prior loss experience within the various categories of the portfolio are considered when reviewing the risks in the portfolio. While management believes the allowance for loan losses is currently adequate, further additions to the allowance will be predicated upon general economic conditions and/or the condition of specific borrowers and overall growth of the loan portfolio. Provisions for possible loan losses were $255,000 for the first nine months of 1997 as compared to a provision of $265,000 for the first nine months of 1996. The allowance for possible loan losses was $841,000 at September 30, 1997 and $837,000 at September 30, 1996. The Bank had net charge-offs of $153,000 and $23,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The following is a summary of the activity in the allowances for loan losses for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996.
1997 1996 ---- ---- Balance at the beginning of period $ 738,353 $595,593 Provision for loan losses 255,000 265,000 Recoveries 43,465 42,889 Losses charged against the allowance (195,911) (66,070) --------- -------- Balance at September 30 $ 840,907 $837,412 ========= ========
Management has, through its most recent analysis of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses completed as of September 30, 1997, determined the allowance to be adequate. Future additions to the allowance for possible loan losses through provisions charged to operations will be determined as a result of managements' continuing analysis of the adequacy for the allowance of possible loan losses. The following is a summary of the Company's non-performing assets as of September 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996.
SEPTEMBER 30 DEC 31 (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) 1997 1996 ---------------------- ---- ---- Past due 90 days or more and still accruing $ 141 $ 14 Non-Accrual loans 1,020 528 ------ ---- Total non-performing loans 1,161 542 Other Real Estate Owned 108 0 ------ ---- Total Non-Performing Assets $1,269 $542 ====== ==== Non-performing loans as a percentage of loans 1.40% 0.75% Non-performing loans as a percentage of loans and OREO 1.39% 0.75% Non-performing assets as a percentage of assets 0.91% 0.43%
14 The amount of non-performing loans has increased as a percentage of loans and as a percentage of assets. The increase is the result of several unrelated loans previously classified by Management and considered in the reserve for loan loss analysis. The increase in non-accrual loans will potentially result in increased loan loss provisions in the remainder of 1997. When loans are placed on non-accrual, accrued income form the current period is reversed from current earnings. Consumer loans are charged off when principal or interest is 120 or more days delinquent, or are placed on non-accrual if the collateral is sufficient to recover the principal. The Corporation's commercial loan portfolio is largely loans secured by owner occupied commercial real estate with an average loan to value ratio under 75%. There is no significant concentration in the portfolio with any business or industrial segment. The Corporation's consumer loan portfolio consists of home equity, automobile, credit cards and personal loans. Approximately 50% of the consumer portfolio consists of home equity loans. The average loan to value ratio of these loans is under 75%. The Corporations' lending activity extends to individuals and small and medium sized businesses within its primary service area, which is predominantly Camden, Gloucester and Burlington counties, New Jersey. The Corporation does not attempt to make significant loans outside its primary service area. The primary service area is a diverse economic and employment market with no significant dependence on any one industry or large employer. LIQUIDITY Liquidity represents the ability to meet present and future financial obligations through either the sale or maturity of existing assets or the acquisition of additional funds through liability management. Liquid assets include cash, federal funds sold, securities classified as available for sale, and loans maturing within one year. As a result of the Corporations' management of liquid assets, and the ability to generate liquidity through liability funds, management believes that the Corporation maintains overall liquidity sufficient to satisfy its deposit requirements and meet its customers' credit needs. At September 30, 1997, cash, securities classified as available for sale, and federal funds sold were 19.8% of total assets compared to 24.4% of total assets at December 31, 1996. Asset liquidity is also provided by managing loan and securities investment maturities. At September 30, 1997, approximately $18.8 million or 22.4% of loans would mature within a one year period. Also, at September 30, 1997 approximately $10.7 million or 29.4% of securities would mature within a one year period. To the extent possible, loans are funded with deposits or other funding with coinciding maturity or repricing dates. CAPITAL RESOURCES The assessment of capital adequacy depends on a number of factors such as asset quality, liquidity, earnings performance, changing competitive conditions, economic forces and growth and expansion activities. The Corporation seeks to maintain a capital base to support its growth and expansion activities, to provide stability to current operations and to promote public confidence. The Corporations' capital position continues to exceed regulatory minimums. The primary indicators relied on by the Federal Reserve Board and other bank regulators in measuring strength of capital position are the Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital Ratio, Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio and Leverage Ratio. Tier 1 Capital consists of common and qualifying preferred stockholders equity less goodwill. Total Capital consists of Tier 1 Capital, and a portion of the allowance for possible loan losses. Risk-based capital ratios are calculated with reference to risk weighted assets which consists of both on and off balance sheet risks (such as letters of credit and unused lines of credit). 15 The Corporations' Tier 1 Risk Based Capital Ratio was 12.8% at September 30, 1997 compared to 13.9% at December 31, 1996. The Corporations' Total Risk Based Capital Ratio was 13.7% at September 30, 1997 compared to 16.7% at December 31, 1996. These ratios are in excess of the mandated minimum requirements of 4.0% and 8.0% respectively. The Leverage Ratio consists of Tier 1 capital divided by quarterly average assets. At September 30, 1997, the Corporations' Leverage Ratio was 8.6% which exceeded the required minimum leverage ratio of 4.0%. 16 PART II - OTHER INFORMATION None SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
