Stock options for 6,975 and 10,219 shares of common stock for the nine month period ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 and the 6,975 and 10,219 shares of common stock for the three month period ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 were not considered in computing diluted earnings per common share because they were not dilutive. Note 3. Commitments and contingencies There are various contingent liabilities that are not reflected in the financial statements including claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, the ultimate disposition of these matters is not expected to have a material effect on the Corporation's consolidated financial condition or results of operations. 8 Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Results of Operations As indicated in the income statement, earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 were $2,567,000 compared to $2,723,000 for the same period in 2000. Earnings decreased as a result of an decrease in net interest income and an increase in operating expenses. The Corporation continues to focus on core banking activities and new opportunities in our current and surrounding markets. Management believes that the softening of the economy that has taken place throughout 2001 and projected for the reminder could continue to place pressure on current and future earnings. The banking industry uses standard performance indicators to help evaluate a banking institution's performance. Return on average assets is one of these indicators. For the nine months ended September 30, 2001 the Corporation's return on average assets was 1.12% compared to 1.22% for the same period in 2000. For the three months ended September 30, 2001 the Corporation's return on average assets was 1.03% compared to 1.35% for the same period in 2000. Net income per share-basic was $1.49 in the first nine months of 2001 compared to $1.59 for the same period in 2000. Net Interest Income Net interest income and average balances and yields on major categories of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 are summarized in Table 3. Net interest income and average balances and yields on major categories of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities for the three months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 are summarized in Table 2. The effects of changes in average interest rates and average balances are detailed in Table 1 below.

9 As indicated in Table 1, during the nine months ended September 30, 2001, net interest income decreased compared to the same period in 2000, principally because of the decrease in prime rate that allowed all of the variable rate loan products to reprice at a lower rate. Interest expense decreased mildly due to the lowering in core deposit rates due to the rate decreases and the lagged effect of repricing certificates of deposit at maturity. Net interest income (displayed without consideration of full tax equivalency), average balance sheet amounts, and the corresponding yields for the three months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 are shown in Table 2. Net interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2001 was $3,129,000 a decrease of $279,000 over the same period in 2000. This represents a decrease of 8.2%. The primary factor contributing to the net interest income decrease was reductions in interest rates by the Federal Reserve Board. Net interest income, average balance sheet amounts, and the corresponding yields for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 are shown in Table 3. Net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 was $9,511,000 a decrease of $547,000 over the same period in 2000. This represents a decrease of 5.4%. The primary factor contributing to the decrease was the reduction in interest rates by the Federal Reserve Board. Management expects the continued softening of the economy throughout the remainder of 2001. Accordingly, the Corporation will seek to strategically manage the balance sheet structure to create stability in net interest income. The Corporation will aggressively seek out new loan opportunities while continuing to maintain sound credit quality. As indicated in Table 2, for the three months ended September 30, 2001, the Corporation's net interest margin (without consideration of full tax equivalency) was 4.28% compared with 4.86% for the same period in 2000. This decline is attributable to the impact of interest rates reduction by the Federal Reserve Board and the increase in interest expense due to certificate of deposit growth. The decrease in interest rates impacts the net interest income in the short term because loans have repriced quicker than deposits thus reducing net interest income. Average earning assets increased 3.9% or approximately $10,850,000 comparing the third quarter of 2001 to the same time period in 2000. Loans, the highest yielding component of earning assets, represented 69.7% of earning assets in 2001 compared to 68.6% in 2000. Average interest bearing liabilities increased 1.5% or $3,442,000 comparing the third quarter of 2001 to the same time period in 2000. Non-interest bearing deposits amounted to 14.9% of average earning assets in the third quarter of 2001 compared with 13.3% in the same time period of 2000. Management continually monitors the Corporation's balance sheet to insulate net interest income from significant swings caused by interest rate volatility. If market rates continue to change in 2001, corresponding changes in funding costs will be considered to avoid any potential negative impact on net interest income. The Corporation's policies in this regard are further discussed in the section titled "Interest Rate Sensitivity Management". 10 Table 2 THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, AVERAGE BALANCES AND RATES 2001 2000 (000's omitted) AVERAGE INCOME/ YIELD/ AVERAGE INCOME/ YIELD/ ASSETS BALANCE EXPENSE RATE BALANCE EXPENSE RATE ------------------------------------------------------------------- Investment securities: U.S. Treasury and Government Agencies $33,657 $488 5.75% $50,410 $797 6.29% State and Political 14,568 165 4.49% 14,026 160 4.54% Other 4,086 49 4.76% 1,077 16 5.91% -------------------------------- -------------------------------- Total Investment Securities 52,311 702 5.32% 65,513 973 5.91% Fed Funds Sold 35,590 311 3.47% 11,420 181 6.31% Loans: Commercial 123,710 2,629 8.43% 106,136 2,577 9.66% Tax Free 772 10 5.14% 492 7 5.66% Real Estate-Mortgage 9,138 251 10.90% 15,363 390 10.10% Consumer 64,335 1,391 8.58% 69,186 1,650 9.49% -------------------------------- -------------------------------- Total loans 197,955 4,281 8.58% 191,177 4,624 9.62% Allowance for Loan Loss (3,111) (3,283) Net Loans 194,844 4,281 8.72% 187,894 4,624 9.79% -------------------------------- -------------------------------- Loans Held for Sale 4,186 74 7.01% 10,645 189 7.06% -------------------------------- -------------------------------- TOTAL EARNING ASSETS $290,042 $5,368 7.34% $278,755 $5,967 8.52% ------------------------------------------------------------------- Cash Due from Banks 10,938 11,589 All Other Assets 13,997 13,784 ----------- ----------- TOTAL ASSETS $311,866 $300,845 ----------- ----------- LIABILITIES & SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY: Deposits: Non-Interest bearing - DDA $40,514 $37,082 Interest bearing - DDA 36,589 156 1.69% 40,264 188 1.86% Savings Deposits 76,720 491 2.54% 66,689 574 3.42% Time CD's $100,000 and Over 32,704 402 4.88% 32,639 522 6.36% Other Time CD's 83,061 1,163 5.56% 74,405 1,058 5.66% -------------------------------- -------------------------------- Total Deposits 269,588 2,212 3.26% 251,079 2,342 3.71% Other Borrowings 1,952 27 5.49% 13,587 217 6.35% -------------------------------- -------------------------------- INTEREST BEARING LIABILITIES $231,026 $2,239 3.85% $227,584 $2,559 4.47% ------------------------------------------------------------------- All Other Liabilities 2,206 2,433 Shareholders' Equity 38,120 33,746 ----------- ----------- TOTAL LIABILITIES & SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY $311,866 $300,845 ----------- --------- ----------- --------- Net Interest Rate Spread 3.49% 4.04% Impact of Non-Interest Bearing Funds on Margin 0.79% 0.82% --------- --------- Net Interest Income /Margin $3,129 4.28% $3,408 4.86% ===================== =====================

12 ALLOWANCE AND PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES The allowance for loan losses (ALL) reflects management's judgment as to the level considered appropriate to absorb losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Fentura's subsidiary banks' methodology in determining the adequacy of the ALL includes a review of individual loans, historical loss experience, current economic conditions, portfolio trends, and other pertinent factors. Although reserves have been allocated to various portfolio segments, the ALL is general in nature and is available for the portfolio in its entirety. At September 30, 2001, the ALL was $3,145,000, or 1.55% of total loans. This compares with $2,932,000, or 1.50%, at December 31, 2000. The increase of the ALL as a percentage of total loans reflects a modest increase in the allowance for loan losses and increased loan totals. Management feels that the allowance to gross loans is appropriate given the changes in the portfolio mix and overall asset quality. The provision for loan losses was $572,000 in the first nine months of 2001 and $523,000 for the same time period in 2000. The Corporation increased the provision in 2001 compared to 2000 to fund the allowance for loan losses to a level management feels is necessary to cover losses inherent in the loan portfolio, particularly considering the growth in the loan portfolio in the 2001 period. Table 4 also summarizes loan losses and recoveries for the first nine months of 2000 and 2001. During the first nine months of 2001 the Corporation experienced net charge-offs of $359,000, compared with net charge-offs of $523,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000. Accordingly, the net charge-off ratio for the first nine months of 2001 was .18% compared to .09% for the same period in 2000. The Corporation maintains formal policies and procedures to control and monitor credit risk. Management believes the allowance for loan losses is adequate to meet normal credit risks in the loan portfolio. The Corporation's loan portfolio has no significant concentrations in any one industry nor any exposure in foreign loans. The Corporation has not extendcredit to finance highly leveraged transactions nor does it intend to do so in the future. Employment levels and other economic conditions in the Corporation's local markets may have a significant impact on the level of loan losses. Management continues to identify and devote attention to credits that may not be performing as agreed. Therefore, in light of the aforementioned, management expects a modest reduction to the allowance for loan losses as a percentage to gross loans in 2001. Of course, deterioration of economic conditions could have an impact on the Corporation's credit quality which could impact the need for greater provision for loan losses and the level of ALL as a percentage of gross loans. Non-performing loans are discussed further in the section titled "Non-Performing Assets".

Non-interest income increased in the nine months ended September 30, 2001 as compared to the same period in 2000, primarily due to an increase in the gain on sale of mortgage loans, and an increase in the gain on sale of investment securities. Non-interest income increased in the third quarter of 2001 as compared to the same quarter in 2000, primarily due to increase in other operating income, gain on sale of mortgages and gain on the sale of investment securities. Overall non-interest income was $3,869,000 in the nine months ended September 30, 2001 compared to $3,098,000 for the same period in 2000. These figures represent an increase of 24.9%. Table 5 provides a more detailed breakdown of the components of non-interest income than can be found in the income statement on page 4. The most significant category of non-interest income is service charges on deposit accounts. These fees were $1,541,000 in the first nine months of 2001 compared to $1,437,000 for the same period of 2000. This represents an increase of 7.2%. The service charges for the third quarter of 2001 were $511,000 compared to $484,000 in the same period in 2000. Increases are attributable to service charges from growth in core deposits. Gains on the sale of mortgage loans originated by the Banks and sold in the secondary market were $403,000 in the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and $125,000 in the same period in 2000. For the third quarter of 2001, gains on sale of mortgages were $170,000 compared to $60,000 for the same period in 2000. The change is due to an increase in loans sold in the secondary market due to the increase in residential mortgage refinance activity and new loan volumes due to the downward movement of market interest rates. Mortgage servicing fees were $35,000 in the nine months ended September 30, 2001 compared to $190,000 in the same time period in 2000. This is a decline of $156,000 or 82.1%. Mortgage servicing fees for the third quarter of 2001 were $0 compared to $62,000 in the same period of 2000. The decline is attributable to the sale of a significant portion of the Corporation's serviced loans, in the last quarter of 2000. There is also a significant decline comparing these fees from the first quarter of 2001 at $34,000 to the second quarter 2001 at $1,000. This decline is also attributable to the sale that took place at the end of 2000. Servicing income was recognized in January of 2001 until these serviced loans were actually transferred to the purchaser. Fiduciary income decreased $43,000 in the nine months ended September 30, 2001 comparing to the same period in the prior year. This 8.2% decrease in fees is attributable to the decline in the value of assets under management within the Corporation's Trust Department. Investment gains on the sale of securities totaled $317,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 compared to $0 for the same period in 2000. The gain on the sale of securities was taken to reposition the investment portfolio through the laddering of maturities. Other operating income increased $270,000 to $1,089,000 in the first nine months of 2001 compared to $819,000 in the same time period in 2000. This is an increase of 32.9%. Other operating income for the third quarter of 2001 of $345,000 compared to $282,000 in the same period of 2000. Other operating income increased due to increases in income from the sale of official checks and an increase in income from the sale of consumer investment products. 14 Non-Interest Expense TABLE 6 Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended Analysis of Non-Interest Expense September 30, September 30, ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------- (000's omitted) 2001 2000 2001 2000 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Salaries and Benefits $1,643 $1,472 $4,728 $4,413 Equipment $376 $377 $1,056 $1,158 Net Occupancy $236 $199 $657 $597 Office Supplies $83 $74 $192 $235 Loan & Collection Expense $48 $44 $130 $250 Advertising $88 $63 $256 $189 Other Operating Expense $661 $663 $2,129 $2,008 -------------------------------------------------- Total Non-Interest Expense $3,135 $2,892 $9,148 $8,850 ==================================================
Total non-interest expense was $9,148,000 in the nine months ended September 30, 2001 compared with $8,850,000 in the same period of 2000. This is a increase of 3.4%. This increase is largely attributable to an increase in salaries and benefits expense and net occupancy expenses. Salary and benefit costs, Fentura's largest non-interest expense category, were $4,728,000 in the nine months ended September 30, 2001, compared with $4,413,000, or an increase of 7.1%, for the same time period in 2000. Increased costs are primarily a result of modest increase in the number of employees. The third quarter showed a increase in the salaries and benefits due to increase in employee benefit costs, and an increase in salary costs in connection with the opening of the second bank, Davison State Bank. During the nine months ended September 30, 2001 equipment expenses were $1,056,000 compared to $1,158,000 for the same period in 2000, a decrease of 8.8%. The equipment expenses for the third quarter of 2001 were $376,000 compared to $377,000 in the same period of 2000. The decreases in expenses are attributable to reductions in equipment maintenance contracts and equipment depreciation which decreased due to the roll off of fully depreciated assets. Occupancy expenses at $657,000 increased in the nine months ended September 30, 2001 comparing to the same period in 2000 by $60,000 or 10.1%. Occupancy expenses for the third quarter of 2001 were $236,000 compared to $199,000 for the third quarter of 2000. The increases are attributable to increases in facility repairs, remodeling of the The State Bank main office and the opening and operation of the Davison State Bank new main office, which opened in the second quarter of 2001 and maintenance contracts expense. During the nine months ended September 30, 2001 office supplies expense at $192,000 decreased $43,000 comparing to the $235,000 in expense for the same period in 2000. Office supplies for the third quarter of 2001 were $83,000 compared to $74,000 in the same period of 2000. The decrease is attributable to volume decreases of regular office supplies and preprinted forms in 2001. Loan and collection expenses, at $130,000, were down $120,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2001 comparing to the same time period in 2000. The decrease is primarily attributable to the scaling back of indirect lending functions. The loan and collection expenses in the third quarter of 2001 were $48,000 compared to $44,000 for the same period in 2000. The decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in legal expenses in connection with collection efforts and a decrease in fees paid to dealers for indirect lending transactions. Other operating expenses were $2,129,000 in the nine months ended September 30, 2001 compared to $2,008,000 in the same time period in 2000, an increase of $121,000 or 6.0%. The increase is attributable to an increase in the amount of overdrawn deposit account charge-offs and an increase in legal and consulting expenses. Other operating expenses for the third quarter of 2001 were $661,000 compared to $663,000 in the same period of 2000. 15 Financial Condition Proper management of the volume and composition of the Corporation's earning assets and funding sources is essential for ensuring strong and consistent earnings performance, maintaining adequate liquidity and limiting exposure to risks caused by changing market conditions. The Corporation's investment securities portfolio is structured to provide a source of liquidity through maturities and generate an income stream with relatively low levels of principal risk. The Corporation does not engage in securities trading. Loans comprise the largest component of earning assets and are the Corporation's highest yielding assets. Client deposits are the primary source of funding for earning assets while short term debt and other sources of funds could be utilized if market conditions and liquidity needs change. The Corporation's total assets equaled $319 million for September 30, 2001 compared to December 31, 2000 total assets of $293 million. Loans comprised 63.6% of total assets at September 30, 2001 compared to 66.6% at December 31, 2000. Loans grew $8 million with commercial loans leading the advance by $17.0 million and the other loan categories experiencing reductions The ratio of non-interest bearing deposits to total deposits was 16.0% at September 30, 2001 compared to 14.0% at December 31, 2000. Interest bearing deposit liabilities totaled $232 million at September 30, 2001 compared to $214 million at December 31, 2000. Deposits grew $27.7 million and Fed Funds Purchased decreased $3.2 million to make up the change in interest bearing liabilities at September 30, 2001. Bank premises and equipment increased $1,224,000 to $7.8 million at September 30, 2001 comparing to $6.5 million at December 31, 2000. The increase is attributable to the renovation of an existing facility and the construction completion of a new headquarters for Davison State Bank. NON-PERFORMING ASSETS Non-performing assets include loans on which interest accruals have ceased, loans which have been renegotiated, and real estate acquired through foreclosure. Past due loans are loans which were delinquent 90 days or more, but have not been placed on non-accrual status. Table 7 represents the levels of these assets at September 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000. Non-performing assets decreased at September 30, 2001 compared to December 31, 2000. This decrease is attributable to a decrease in both loans that are non-accrual and loans which are past due 90 days or more and still accruing. The non-accrual loans decreased because of both charge-offs taken in the first half of 2001 and loans which were made current by the borrower, and loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing decreased due to the collection of payments making certain loans current. The level and composition of non-performing assets are affected by economic conditions in the Corporation's local markets. Non-performing assets, charge-offs, and provisions for loan losses tend to decline in a strong economy and increase in a weak economy, potentially impacting the Corporation's operating results. In addition to non-performing loans, management carefully monitors other credits that are current in terms of principal and interest payments but, in management's opinion, may deteriorate in quality if economic conditions change. Based on the current softening of the economy, management continues to closely monitor credit quality. 16 Table 7 Non-Performing Assets and Past Due Loans Sept. 30, December 31, 2001 2000 ------------------------------ Non-Performing Loans: Loans Past Due 90 Days or More & Still Accruing $236,000 $489,000 Non-Accrual Loans 426,000 731,000 Renegotiated Loans 0 0 ------------------------------ Total Non-Performing Loans 662,000 1,220,000 ------------------------------ Other Non-Performing Assets: Other Real Estate 0 0 REO in Redemption 0 0 Other Non-Performing Assets 70,000 159,000 ------------------------------ Total Other Non-Performing Assets 70,000 159,000 ------------------------------ Total Non-Performing Assets $732,000 $1,379,000 ============================== Non-Performing Loans as a % of Total Loans 0.36% 0.63% Allowance for Loan Losses as a % of Non-Performing Loans 475.08% 240.33% Accruing Loans Past Due 90 Days or More to Total Loans 0.12% 0.25% Non-performing Assets as a % of Total Assets .23% 0.47%
LIQUIDITY AND INTEREST RATE RISK MANAGEMENT Asset/Liability management is designed to assure liquidity and reduce interest rate risks. The goal in managing interest rate risk is to maintain a strong and relatively stable net interest margin. It is the responsibility of the Asset/Liability Management Committee (ALCO) to set policy guidelines and to establish short-term and long-term strategies with respect to interest rate exposure and liquidity. The ALCO, which is comprised of key members of management, meets regularly to review financial performance and soundness, including interest rate risk and liquidity exposure in relation to present and prospective markets, business conditions, and product lines. Accordingly, the committee adopts funding and balance sheet management strategies that are intended to maintain earnings, liquidity, and growth rates consistent with policy and prudent business standards. Liquidity maintenance together with a solid capital base and strong earnings performance are key objectives of the Corporation. The Corporation's liquidity is derived from a strong deposit base comprised of individual and business deposits. Deposit accounts of customers in the mature market represent a substantial portion of deposits of individuals. The Banks' deposit base plus other funding sources (federal funds purchased, other liabilities and shareholders' equity) provided primarily all funding needs in the first nine months of 2001. While these sources of funds are expected to continue to be available to provide funds in the future, the mix and availability of funds will depend upon future economic conditions. The Corporation does not foresee any difficulty in meeting its funding requirements. Primary liquidity is provided through short-term investments or borrowings (including federal funds sold and purchased) while secondary liquidity is provided by the investment portfolio. As of September 30, 2001 federal funds sold represented 11.9% of total assets, compared to 2.5% at December 31, 2000. The Corporation regularly monitors liquidity to ensure adequate cash flows to cover unanticipated reductions in the availability of funding sources. 17 Interest rate risk is managed by controlling and limiting the level of earnings volatility arising from rate movements. The Corporation regularly performs reviews and analysis of those factors impacting interest rate risk. Factors include maturity and re-pricing frequency of balance sheet components, impact of rate changes on interest margin and prepayment speeds, market value impacts of rate changes, and other issues. Both actual and projected performance is reviewed, analyzed, and compared to policy and objectives to assure present and future financial viability. As indicated in the statement of cash flows, cash flows from financing activities increased $23,682,000 in the first nine months of 2001 due to the increase in deposits. Comparatively, in the first nine months of 2000, cash flows from financing activities increased $18,228,000 because of increases in deposits and borrowings. Cash flows from investing activities were $4,939,000 during the first nine months of 2001. The increases in investing activities at the end of the third quarter of 2001, were offset by maturing and called investment securities. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT Total shareholders' equity rose 6.5% to $38,082,000 at September 30, 2001 compared with $35,754,000 at December 31, 2000. The Corporation's equity to asset ratio was 11.9% at September 30, 2001 and 12.2% at December 31, 2000. The increase in the amount of capital was obtained primarily through retained earnings. In the first nine months of 2001, the Corporation increased its cash dividends by 4.8% to $.66 per share compared with $.63 in the same period in 2000. As indicated on the balance sheet at December 31, 2000 the Corporation had accumulated other comprehensive loss of $215,000 compared to accumulated other comprehensive income at September 30, 2001 of $410,000. The increase to an income position is attributable to the downward movement of market interest rates and the interest rate structures on those securities held in the available for sale portfolio. Regulatory Capital Requirements Bank holding companies and their bank subsidiaries are required by banking industry regulators to maintain certain levels of capital. These are expressed in the form of certain ratios. These ratios are based on the degree of credit risk in the Corporation's assets. All assets and off-balance sheet items such as outstanding loan commitments are assigned risk factors to create an overall risk weighted asset total. Capital is separated into two levels, Tier I capital (essentially total common shareholders' equity less goodwill) and Tier II capital (essentially the allowance for loan losses limited to 1.25% of gross risk-weighted assets). Capital levels are then measured as a percentage of total risk weighted assets. The regulatory minimum for Tier I capital to risk weighted assets is 4% and the minimum for Total capital (Tier I plus Tier II) to risk weighted assets is 8%. The Tier I leverage ratio measures Tier I capital to average assets and must be a minimum of 4%. As reflected in Table 9, at September 30, 2001 and at December 31, 2000, the Corporation was well in excess of the minimum capital and leverage requirements necessary to be considered a "well capitalized" banking company. The FDIC has adopted a risk-based insurance premium system based in part on a bank's capital adequacy. Under this system a depository institution is classified as well capitalized, adequately capitalized, or undercapitalized according to its regulatory capital levels. Subsequently, a financial institution's premium levels are based on these classifications and its regulatory supervisory rating (the higher the classification the lower the premium). It is the Corporation's goal to maintain capital levels sufficient to receive a designation of "well capitalized". 18 Table 8 Capital Ratios ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Regulatory Minimum Fentura Bancorp, Inc.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK The information concerning quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk contained on pages 40 through 42 in Fentura's Annual Report on Form 10-K, is here incorporated by reference. Fentura Bancorp, Inc. faces market risk to the extent that both earnings and the fair value of its financial instruments are affected by changes in interest rates. The Corporation manages this risk with static GAP analysis and has begun simulation modeling. For the nine months of 2001, the results of these measurement techniques were within the Corporation's policy guidelines. The Corporation does not believe that there has been a material change in the nature of the Corporation's primary market risk exposures, including the categories of market risk to which the Corporation is exposed and the particular markets that present the primary risk of loss to the Corporation, or in how those exposures are managed in 2001 compared to 2000. The Corporation's market risk exposure is mainly comprised of its vulnerability to interest rate risk. Prevailing interest rates and interest rate relationships in the future will be primarily determined by market factors which are outside of the Corporation's control. All information provided in this section consists of forward looking statements. Reference is made to the section captioned "Forward Looking Statements" in this quarterly report for a discussion of the limitations on the Corporation's responsibility for such statements. INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY MANAGEMENT Interest rate sensitivity management seeks to maximize net interest income as a result of changing interest rates, within prudent ranges of risk. The Corporation attempts to accomplish this objective by structuring the balance sheet so that re-pricing opportunities exist for both assets and liabilities in roughly equivalent amounts at approximately the same time intervals. Imbalances in these re-pricing opportunities at any point in time constitute a bank's interest rate sensitivity. The Corporation currently does not utilize derivatives in managing interest rate risk. An indicator of the interest rate sensitivity structure of a financial institution's balance sheet is the difference between rate sensitive assets and rate sensitive liabilities, and is referred to as "GAP". Table 9 sets forth the distribution of re-pricing of the Corporation's earning assets and interest bearing liabilities as of September 30, 2001, the interest rate sensitivity GAP, as defined above, the cumulative interest rate sensitivity GAP, the interest rate sensitivity GAP ratio (i.e. interest rate sensitive assets divided by interest rate sensitive liabilities) and the cumulative sensitivity GAP ratio. The table also sets forth the time periods in which earning assets and liabilities will mature or may re-price in accordance with their contractual terms. 19 Table 9 GAP ANALYSIS SEPTEMBER 30, 2001 (000's Omitted) Within Three One to After Three Months Five Five Months One Year Years Years Total ------------------------------------------------------------- Earning Assets: Federal Funds Sold $ 38,050 $ 0 $ 0 $ 0 $ 38,050 Investment Securities 4,802 8,924 17,890 20,879 52,495 Loans 90,859 14,247 76,361 21,603 203,070 Loans Held for Sale 1,208 0 0 0 1,208 ------------------------------------------------------------- Total Earning Assets $134,919 $ 23,171 $ 94,251 $ 42,482 $294,823 ============================================================= Interest Bearing Liabilities: Interest Bearing Demand Deposits $ 37,360 $ 0 $ 0 $ 0 $ 37,360 Savings Deposits 78,128 0 0 0 78,128 Time Deposits Less than $100,000 15,663 42,791 24,871 185 83,510 Time Deposits Greater than $100,000 18,032 11,998 3,171 0 33,201 Other Borrowings 1,500 10 245 883 2,638 ------------------------------------------------------------- Total Interest Bearing Liabilities $150,683 $ 54,799 $ 28,287 $ 1,068 $234,837 ============================================================= Interest Rate Sensitivity GAP $ (15,764) $ (31,628) $ 65,964 $ 41,414 $ 59,986 Cumulative Interest Rate Sensitivity GAP $ (15,764) $ (47,392) $ 18,572) $ 59,986 Interest Rate Sensitivity GAP (0.90) (0.42) 3.33 39.78 Cumulative Interest Rate Sensitivity GAP Ratio (0.90) (0.77) 1.08 1.26
As indicated in Table 9, the short-term (one year and less) cumulative interest rate sensitivity gap is negative. Accordingly, if market interest rates increase, this negative gap position would have a short- term negative impact on interest margin. Conversely, if market rates continue to decline this should theoretically have a short-term positive impact. However, gap analysis is limited and may not provide an accurate indication of the impact of general interest rate movements on the net interest margin since the re-pricing of various categories of assets and liabilities is subject to the Corporation's needs, competitive pressures, and the needs of the Corporation's customers. In addition, various assets and liabilities indicated as re-pricing within the same period may in fact re-price at different times within such period and at different rate volumes. These limitations are evident when considering our Gap position at September 30, 2000 and the change in net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 compared to the same time period in 2000. At September 30, 2000 the Corporation was negatively gapped through one year and since that time interest rates have lowered considerably, yet net interest income declined comparing the first nine months of 2001 to the same period in 2000. This occurred because certain deposit categories, specifically interest bearing demand and savings, did not re-price at the same time or at the same level as asset portfolios. Additionally, simulation modeling, which measures the impact of upward and downward movements of interest rates on interest margin and the market value of equity, indicates that an upward movement of interest rates would not significantly reduce net interest income. 20 FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS This report contains "forward looking statements" as that term is used in the securities laws. All statements regarding our expected financial position, performance, business and strategies are forward looking statements. These statements are based on management's beliefs, assumptions, current expectations, estimates and projections about the financial services industry, the economy, and about the Corporation itself. Words such as "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "expects," "forecasts," "intends," "is likely," "plans," "projects," variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions ("Future Factors") which are difficult to predict with regard to timing, extent, likelihood and degree of occurrence. Therefore, actual results and outcomes may materially differ from what may be expressed or forecast in such forward looking statements. The Corporation undertakes no obligation to update, amend or clarify forward looking statements as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Future Factors that could cause a difference between an ultimate actual outcome and a preceding forward looking statements contained in this report include, but are not limited to, changes in interest rate and interest rate relationships, demands for products and services, the degree of competition by traditional and non-traditional competitors, changes in banking laws or regulations, changes in tax laws, changes in prices, the impact of technological advances, government and regulatory policy changes, the outcome of pending and future litigation and contingencies, trends in customer's behaviors as well as their ability to repay loans, and the local economy.
