Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Form 10-Q

(Amounts in thousands, except share data)

(1) Consolidated Financial Statements

Nature of Operations and Principles of Consolidation: The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of First Citizens Banc Corp (FCBC) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries: The Citizens Banking Company (Citizens), First Citizens Insurance Agency, Inc., and Water Street Properties, Inc. (Water St.). First Citizens Capital LLC (FCC) is wholly-owned by Citizens and holds inter-company debt. The operations of FCC are located in Wilmington, Delaware. First Citizens Investments, Inc. (FCI) is wholly-owned by Citizens and holds and manages Citizens’ securities portfolio. The operations of FCI are located in Wilmington, Delaware. The above companies together are referred to as the “Corporation”. Intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Corporation without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Corporation’s financial position as of June 30, 2012 and its results of operations and changes in cash flows for the periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 have been made. The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with instructions of Form 10-Q, and therefore certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America have been omitted. The results of operations for the period ended June 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year. Reference is made to the accounting policies of the Corporation described in the notes to the financial statements contained in the Corporation’s 2011 annual report. The Corporation has consistently followed these policies in preparing this Form 10-Q.

The Corporation provides financial services through its offices in the Ohio counties of Erie, Crawford, Champaign, Franklin, Logan, Madison, Summit, Huron, Union, Ottawa, and Richland. Its primary deposit products are checking, savings, and term certificate accounts, and its primary lending products are residential mortgage, commercial, and installment loans. Substantially all loans are secured by specific items of collateral including business assets, consumer assets and commercial and residential real estate. Commercial loans are expected to be repaid from cash flow from operations of businesses. There are no significant concentrations of loans to any one industry or customer. However, the customers’ ability to repay their loans is dependent on the real estate and general economic conditions in the area. Other financial instruments that potentially represent concentrations of credit risk include deposit accounts in other financial institutions and Federal Funds sold. First Citizens Insurance Agency, Inc. was formed to allow the Corporation to participate in commission revenue generated through its third party insurance agreement. Insurance commission revenue was less than 1.0% of total revenue through June 30, 2012. Water St. revenue was less than 1.0% of total revenue through June 30, 2012. Management considers the Corporation to operate primarily in one reportable segment, banking.

Form 10-Q

(Amounts in thousands, except share data)

Use of Estimates: To prepare financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management makes estimates and assumptions based on available information. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported in financial statements and the disclosures provided, and future results could differ. The allowance for loan losses, impairment of goodwill, fair values of financial instruments, deferred taxes and pension obligations are particularly subject to change.

Income Taxes: Income tax expense is based on the effective tax rate expected to be applicable for the entire year. Income tax expense is the total of the current year income tax due or refundable and the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are the expected future tax amounts for the temporary differences between carrying amounts and tax basis of assets and liabilities, computed using enacted tax rates. A valuation allowance, if needed, reduces deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

Reclassifications: Some items in the prior year financial statements were reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

Adoption of New Accounting Standards:

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-09, Compensation-Retirement Benefits-Multiemployer Plans (Subtopic 715-80): Disclosures about an Employer’s Participation in a Multiemployer Plan. The amendments in this Update will require additional disclosures about an employer’s participation in a multiemployer pension plan to enable users of financial statements to assess the potential cash flow implications relating to an employer’s participation in multiemployer pension plans. The disclosures also will indicate the financial health of all of the significant plans in which the employer participates and assist a financial statement user to access additional information that is available outside the financial statements. For public entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for annual periods for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted. The amendments should be applied retrospectively for all prior periods presented. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Corporation’s financial statements.

Effect of Newly Issued but Not Yet Effective Accounting Standards:

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-10, Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Derecognition of in Substance Real Estate-a Scope Clarification. The amendments in this Update affect entities that cease to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary that is in substance real estate as a result of default on the subsidiary's nonrecourse debt. Under the amendments in this Update, when a parent (reporting entity) ceases to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary that is in substance real estate as a result of default on the subsidiary's nonrecourse debt, the reporting entity should apply the guidance in Subtopic 360-20 to determine whether it should derecognize the in substance real estate. Generally, a reporting entity would not satisfy the requirements to derecognize the in substance real estate before the legal transfer of the real estate to the lender and the extinguishment of the related nonrecourse indebtedness. That is, even if the reporting entity ceases to have a controlling financial interest under Subtopic 810-10, the reporting entity would continue to include the real estate, debt, and the results of the subsidiary's operations in its consolidated financial statements until legal title to the real estate is transferred to legally satisfy the debt. The amendments in this Update should be applied on a prospective basis to deconsolidation events occurring after the effective date. Prior periods should not be adjusted even if the reporting entity has continuing involvement with previously derecognized in substance real estate entities. For public entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after June 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Corporation’s financial statements.

(Amounts in thousands, except share data)

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. The amendments in this Update affect all entities that have financial instruments and derivative instruments that are either (1) offset in accordance with either Section 210-20-45 or Section 815-10-45 or (2) subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement. The requirements amend the disclosure requirements on offsetting in Section 210-20-50. This information will enable users of an entity's financial statements to evaluate the effect or potential effect of netting arrangements on an entity's financial position, including the effect or potential effect of rights of setoff associated with certain financial instruments and derivative instruments in the scope of this Update. An entity is required to apply the amendments for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. An entity should provide the disclosures required by those amendments retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. The Corporation is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the standard will have on the Corporation’s financial position or results of operations.

At June 30, 2012 there are twenty-four securities in the portfolio with unrealized losses. Unrealized losses on securities have not been recognized into income because the issuers’ securities are of high credit quality, management has the intent and ability to hold these securities for the foreseeable future, and the decline in fair value is largely due to market yields increasing across the municipal sector partly due to higher risk premiums associated with municipal insurers. The fair value is expected to recover as the securities approach their maturity date or reset date. The Corporation does not intend to sell until recovery and does not believe selling will be required before recovery.

(4) Allowance for Loan Losses

Management has an established methodology to determine the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses that assesses the risks and losses inherent in the loan portfolio. For purposes of determining the allowance for loan losses, the Corporation has segmented certain loans in the portfolio by product type. Loans are segmented into the following pools: Commercial and Agricultural loans, Commercial Real Estate loans, Real Estate Mortgage loans, Real Estate Construction loans and Consumer loans. Historical loss percentages for each risk category are calculated and used as the basis for calculating loan loss allowance allocations. These historical loss percentages are calculated over a three-year period for all portfolio segments. Certain economic factors are also considered for trends which management uses to establish the directionality of changes to the unallocated portion of the reserve. The following economic factors are analyzed:

• Changes in lending policies and procedures

• Changes in experience and depth of lending and management staff

• Changes in quality of Bank’s credit review system

• Changes in nature and volume of the loan portfolio

• Changes in past due, classified and nonaccrual loans and TDRs

• Changes in economic and business conditions

• Changes in competition or legal and regulatory requirements

• Changes in concentrations within the loan portfolio

• Changes in the underlying collateral for collateral dependent loans

The total allowance reflects management's estimate of loan losses inherent in the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. The Corporation considers the allowance for loan losses of $21,931 adequate to cover loan losses inherent in the loan portfolio, at June 30, 2012. The following tables present by portfolio segment, the changes in the allowance for loan losses and the loan balances outstanding for the period ended June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011. The allowance for Real Estate Construction loans was reduced not only by charge-offs, but also due to a decrease in both the loan balances outstanding and the historical charge-offs for this type. The net result of these changes was a reduction in the allowance for this loan type and is represented as a decrease in the provision. The allowance for consumer loans was reduced not only by charge-offs, but also due to a decrease in both the loan balances outstanding and the historical charge-offs for this type. The allowance related to the unallocated segment was also reduced.

The following table represents credit exposures by internally assigned grades for the period ended June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011. The grading analysis estimates the capability of the borrower to repay the contractual obligations of the loan agreements as scheduled or at all. Residential real estate loans with an internal credit risk grade include commercial loans that are secured by conventional 1-4 family residential properties. Real estate construction loans with an internal credit risk grade include commercial construction, land development and other land loans. The Corporation's internal credit risk grading system is based on experiences with similarly graded loans.

The Corporation’s internally assigned grades are as follows:

• Pass – loans which are protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or by the value of the underlying collateral.

• Special Mention – loans where a potential weakness or risk exists, which could cause a more serious problem if not corrected.

• Substandard – loans that have a well-defined weakness based on objective evidence and are characterized by the distinct possibility that Citizens will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

• Doubtful – loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in a substandard asset. In addition, these weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable, based on existing circumstances.

• Loss – loans classified as a loss are considered uncollectible, or of such value that continuance as an asset is not warranted.

• Unrated – Generally, consumer loans are not risk-graded, except when collateral is used for a business purpose.

The following tables present performing and nonperforming loans based solely on payment activity for the period ended June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 that have not been assigned an internal risk grade. Payment activity is reviewed by management on a monthly basis to determine how loans are performing. Loans are considered to be nonperforming when they become 90 days past due. Nonperforming loans also include certain loans that have been modified in Troubled Debt Restructurings (TDRs) where economic concessions have been granted to borrowers who have experienced or are expected to experience financial difficulties. These concessions typically result from the Corporation's loss mitigation activities and could include reductions in the interest rate, payment extensions, forgiveness of principal, forbearance or other actions. Certain TDRs are classified as nonperforming at the time of restructure and may only be returned to performing status after considering the borrower's sustained repayment performance for a reasonable period, generally six months.

Nonaccrual Loans: Loans are considered for nonaccrual status upon reaching 90 days delinquency, unless the loan is well secured and in the process of collection, although the Corporation may be receiving partial payments of interest and partial repayments of principal on such loans. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, previously accrued but unpaid interest is deducted from interest income.

The following table presents loans on nonaccrual status as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

Recidivism, or the borrower defaulting on its obligation pursuant to a modified loan, results in the loan once again becoming a non-accrual loan. Recidivism occurs at a notably higher rate than do defaults on new origination loans, so modified loans present a higher risk of loss than do new origination loans.

During the six-month period ended June 30, 2012, there were no defaults on any loans which were modified and considered TDRs during the twelve months previous to June 30, 2012.

Impaired Loans: Larger (greater than $350) commercial loans and commercial real estate loans, many of which are 60 days or more past due, are tested for impairment. These loans are analyzed to determine if it is probable that all amounts will not be collected according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. If management determines that the value of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan (net of previous charge-offs, deferred loan fees or costs and unamortized premium or discount), impairment is recognized through an allowance estimate or a charge-off to the allowance.

The following tables include the recorded investment and unpaid principal balances for impaired financing receivables with the associated allowance amount, if applicable, as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

(6) Commitments, Contingencies and Off-Balance Sheet Risk

Some financial instruments, such as loan commitments, credit lines, letters of credit and overdraft protection are issued to meet customers’ financing needs. These are agreements to provide credit or to support the credit of others, as long as the conditions established in the contract are met, and usually have expiration dates. Commitments may expire without being used. Off-balance-sheet risk of credit loss exists up to the face amount of these instruments, although material losses are not anticipated. The same credit policies are used to make such commitments as are used for loans, including obtaining collateral at exercise of commitment. The contractual amount of financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk was as follows for June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011:

	Contract Amount
	June 30, 2012				December 31, 2011
	Fixed		Variable		Fixed		Variable
	Rate		Rate		Rate		Rate
Commitment to extend credit:
Lines of credit and construction loans	$	10,110	$	112,745	$	6,913	$	111,710
Overdraft protection		1,309		17,940		1,320		17,828
Letters of credit		200		431		200		424
	$	11,619	$	131,116	$	8,433	$	129,962

Commitments to make loans are generally made for a period of one year or less. Fixed rate loan commitments included in the table above had interest rates ranging from 2.25% to 15.0% at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. Maturities extend up to 30 years.

Citizens is required to maintain certain reserve balances on hand in accordance with the Federal Reserve Board requirements. The average reserve balance maintained in accordance with such requirements was $1,112 on June 30, 2012 and $998 on December 31, 2011.

(8) Stock Options

Options to buy stock could be granted to directors, officers and employees under the Corporation’s Stock Option and Stock Appreciation Rights Plan, which provided for issue of up to 225,000 options. The exercise price of stock options is determined based on the market price of the Corporation’s common shares at the date of grant. The maximum option term is ten years, and options normally vest after three years.

The Corporation did not grant any stock options during the first six months of 2012 or 2011, nor did any stock options become vested during the first six months of 2012 or 2011. The Corporation’s Stock Option and Stock Appreciation Rights Plan expired in 2010, and no further stock options or other awards may be granted by the Corporation under such plan.

(9) Fair Value Measurement

The Corporation uses a fair value hierarchy to measure fair value. The topic describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value. Level 1: Quoted prices for identical assets in active markets that are identifiable on the measurement date; Level 2: Significant other observable inputs, such as quoted prices for similar assets, quoted prices in markets that are not active and other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data; Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Corporation’s own view about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset.

Securities: The fair values of securities available for sale are determined by matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely used in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities, but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 2 inputs). Management uses significant unobservable inputs to determine the fair value of one security (Level 3 inputs). These inputs include appraised values of the underlying collateral and estimated costs to sell the collateral. The value of the collateral has been discounted to represent the value in a distressed sale situation.

Equity securities: The Corporation’s equity securities are not actively traded in an open market. The fair values of these equity securities available for sale are determined by using market data inputs for similar securities that are observable. (Level 2 inputs).

Impaired loans: The fair values of impaired loans are determined using the fair values of collateral for collateral dependent loans, or discounted cash flows. The Corporation uses independent appraisals, discounted cash flow models and other available data to estimate the fair value of collateral (Level 3 inputs).

Other real estate owned: The fair value of other real estate owned is determined using the fair value of collateral. The Corporation uses appraisals and other available data to estimate the fair value of collateral (Level 3 inputs). The appraised values are discounted to represent an estimated value in a distressed sale. Additionally, estimated costs to sell the property are used to further adjust the value.

Cash and due from financial institutions:

The carrying amounts for cash and due from financial institutions approximate fair value because they have original maturities of less than 90 days and do not present unanticipated credit concerns.

Available-for-sale securities:

The fair value of securities are determined by matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely used in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for specific securities. Instead, this method relies on the securities relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 2 inputs). For equity securities, management uses market information related to the value of similar institutions to determine the fair value (Level 2 inputs). Management uses significant unobservable inputs to determine the fair value of one security (Level 3 inputs). These inputs include appraised values of the underlying collateral and estimated costs to sell the collateral. The value of the collateral has been discounted to represent the value in a distressed sale situation.

Other securities:

The carrying value of regulatory stock approximates fair value based on applicable redemption provisions.

Form 10-Q

(Amounts in thousands, except share data)

Loans, available-for-sale:

Loans held for sale are priced individually at market rates on the day that the loan is locked for commitment to an investor. Because the holding period of such loans is typically short, the carrying value generally approximates the fair value at the time the commitment is received. All loans in the held-for-sale account conform to Fannie Mae underwriting guidelines, with specific intent of the loan being purchased by an investor at the predetermined rate structure.

Loans, net of allowance for loan losses:

Fair values for loans, other than impaired, are estimated for portfolios of loans with similar financial characteristics. The fair value of performing loans has been estimated by discounting expected future cash flows of the underlying portfolios. The discount rates used in these calculations are generally derived from the treasury yield curve and are calculated by discounting scheduled cash flows through the estimated maturity using estimated market discount rates that reflect the credit and interest rate inherent in the loan. The estimated maturity is based on the Corporation’s historical experience with repayments for each loan classification. The off-balance-sheet items are based on the current fees or cost that would be charged to enter into or terminate such arrangements and are considered nominal. Changes in these significant unobservable inputs used in discounted cash flow analysis, such as the discount rate or prepayment speeds, could lead to changes in the underlying fair value.

Bank owned life insurance:

The carrying value of bank owned life insurance approximates the fair value based on applicable redemption provisions.

Accrued interest receivable and payable and securities sold under agreements to repurchase:

The carrying amounts for accrued interest receivable, accrued interest payable and securities sold under agreements to repurchase approximate fair value because they are generally received or paid in 90 days or less and do not present unanticipated credit concerns.

Deposits:

The fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as noninterest-bearing demand deposits, savings and NOW accounts, and money market accounts, is equal to the amount payable on demand.

The fair value of certificates of deposit is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

The deposits’ fair value estimates do not include the benefit that results from the low-cost funding provided by the deposit liabilities compared to the cost of borrowing funds in the market, commonly referred to as the core deposit intangible.

Federal Home Loan Bank advances:

Rates available to the Corporation for borrowed funds with similar terms and remaining maturities are used to estimate the fair value of borrowed funds.

(Amounts in thousands, except share data)

Subordinated debentures:

The fair value of subordinated debentures is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows of the underlying debt agreements. The discount rate is estimated using the current rate for a 30 year mortgage-matched secured borrowing from the FHLB.

(10) Participation in the Treasury Capital Purchase Program

On January 23, 2009, the Corporation completed the sale to the U.S. Treasury of $23,184 of newly-issued non-voting preferred shares as part of the Capital Purchase Program (CPP) enacted by the U.S. Treasury as part of the Troubled Assets Relief Program (TARP) under the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (EESA). To finalize the Corporation’s participation in the CPP, the Corporation and the Treasury entered into a Letter Agreement, dated January 23, 2009, including the Securities Purchase Agreement – Standard Terms attached thereto. Pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Corporation issued and sold to Treasury (1) 23,184 Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Shares, Series A, each without par value and having a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share (Preferred Shares), and (2) a Warrant to purchase 469,312 common shares of the Corporation, each without par value, at an exercise price of $7.41 per share. The Warrant has a ten-year term. All of the proceeds from the sale of the Preferred Shares and the Warrant by the Corporation to the U.S. Treasury under the CPP qualify as Tier 1 capital for regulatory purposes. Under the standardized CPP terms, cumulative dividends on the Preferred Shares will accrue on the liquidation preference at a rate of 5% per annum for the first five years, and at a rate of 9% per annum thereafter, but will be paid only if, as and when declared by the Corporation’s Board of Directors. The Preferred Shares have no maturity date and rank senior to the common shares with respect to the payment of dividends and distributions and amounts payable upon liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Corporation.

On July 3, 2012, the U.S. Treasury completed the sale of all 23,184 of the Preferred Shares to various investors pursuant to a modified “Dutch auction” process. As a result of the U.S. Treasury’s sale of all of the Preferred Shares, the executive compensation and corporate governance standards which applied to the Corporation as a participant in the CPP, which standards were most recently set forth in the Interim Final Rule on TARP Standards for Compensation and Corporate Governance, published June 15, 2009, are no longer applicable to the Corporation.

ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Introduction

The following discussion focuses on the consolidated financial condition of the Corporation at June 30, 2012 compared to December 31, 2011 and the consolidated results of operations for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2012, compared to the same periods in 2011. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in this Form 10-Q.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements by the Corporation relating to various matters, including, without limitation, anticipated operating results, business line results, credit quality expectations, prospects for new lines of business, economic trends (including interest rates) and similar matters. Such statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations of the Corporation’s management and are subject to risks and uncertainties. While the Corporation believes that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements contained herein are reasonable, any of the assumptions could prove to be inaccurate, and accordingly, actual results and experiences could differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed by the Corporation in its forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results or experiences to differ from results discussed in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, regional and national economic conditions; volatility and direction of market interest rates; credit risks of lending activities; governmental legislation and regulation, including changes in accounting regulation or standards; material unforeseen changes in the financial condition or results of operations of the Corporation’s clients; increases in FDIC insurance premiums and assessments; and other risks identified from time-to-time in the Corporation’s other public documents on file with the SEC, including those risks identified in Item 1A of Part 1 of the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The Corporation does not undertake, and specifically disclaims, any obligation to publicly release the result of any revisions that may be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances after the date of such statements, except as required by law.

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements, and the purpose of this section is to secure the use of the safe harbor provisions.

Financial Condition

Total assets of the Corporation at June 30, 2012 were $1,109,372 compared to $1,112,977 at December 31, 2011, a decrease of $3,605, or 0.3 percent. The decrease in total assets was mainly attributed to a decrease in loans, net of allowance offset by an increase in cash and due from banks and investment securities. Total liabilities at June 30, 2012 were $1,005,276 compared to $1,010,449 at December 31, 2011, a decrease of $5,173, or 0.5 percent. The decrease in total liabilities was mainly attributed to decreases in non interest-bearing deposits, interest–bearing deposits and securities sold under agreements to repurchase offset by an increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities.

Form 10-Q

(Amounts in thousands, except share data)

Net loans have decreased $11,933 or 1.6 percent since December 31, 2011. The commercial real estate and real estate construction portfolios increased $17,046 and $2,536, respectively since December 31, 2011, while the commercial and agricultural, real estate and consumer loan portfolios decreased $8,335, $20,516 and $1,990, respectively. The current increase in commercial real estate loans is mainly due to increased opportunities from our larger markets and calling efforts by the commercial lending officers. The current increase in real estate construction is mainly due to an increase in the demand for construction loans. The current decrease in commercial and agricultural loans is the result of the pay down of loan balances on agricultural loans. The current decrease in real estate and consumer loans is mainly the result of the economic downturn and high unemployment rates in our market area, coupled with the Corporation’s decision to originate and sell the majority of mortgage loans in the secondary market.

Loans held for sale have increased $301 or 50.3 percent since December 31, 2011. At June 30, 2012, the net loan to deposit ratio was 83.8 percent compared to 84.8 percent at December 31, 2011. This ratio has declined in 2012 due to a decrease in loans.

For the six months of operations in 2012, $3,865 was placed into the allowance for loan losses from earnings, compared to $5,700 in the same period of 2011. The economic downturn and high unemployment rates in our market area continue to stress the ability of some customers to make payments on their loans. Although general reserves required increases compared to December 31, 2011, specific reserves declined during the same period. However, detailed analyses of potential losses in the loan portfolio indicated that a reduced provision was appropriate. Net charge-offs have decreased to $3,192, compared to $5,719 in 2011. For the first six months of 2012, the Corporation has charged off one hundred and twenty loans. Sixty real estate mortgage loans totaling $1,309 net of recoveries, twenty-one commercial real estate loans totaling $1,464 net of recoveries, seventeen commercial and agriculture loans totaling $317 net of recoveries, and one real estate construction loan totaling $8 net of recoveries were charged off in the first six months of the year. In addition, twenty-one consumer loans totaling $109, net of recoveries, were charged off. For each loan category, as well as in total, the percentage of net charge-offs to loans was less than one percent. Nonperforming loans have increased by $940, of which $444 was due to a decrease in loans past due 90 days but still accruing and $1,384 was due to an increase in loans on nonaccrual status. Each of these factors was considered by management as part of the examination of both the level and mix of the allowance by loan type as well as the overall level of the allowance. Management specifically evaluates loans that are impaired, or graded as doubtful by the internal grading function for estimates of loss. To evaluate the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses to cover probable losses in the portfolio, management considers specific reserve allocations for identified portfolio loans, reserves for delinquencies and historical reserve allocations. The composition and overall level of the loan portfolio and charge-off activity are also factors used to determine the amount of the allowance for loan losses.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Form 10-Q

(Amounts in thousands, except share data)

Management analyzes commercial and commercial real estate loans, with balances of $350 or larger, on an individual basis and classifies a loan as impaired when an analysis of the borrower’s operating results and financial condition indicates that underlying cash flows are not adequate to meet its debt service requirements. Often this is associated with a delay or shortfall in payments of 90 days or more. In addition, loans held for sale and leases are excluded from consideration as impaired. Loans are generally moved to nonaccrual status when 90 days or more past due. Impaired loans, or portions thereof, are charged-off when deemed uncollectible. The allowance for loan losses as a percent of total loans was 2.84 at June 30, 2012 and 2.71 percent at December 31, 2011.

The available for sale security portfolio increased by $6,591, from $204,633 at December 31, 2011, to $211,224 at June 30, 2012. The increase is the result of additional securities purchases made in the first six months of 2012 above scheduled maturities and reinvestment of profits. The Corporation continued utilizing letters of credit from the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) to replace maturing securities that were pledged for public entities. As of June 30, 2012, the Corporation was in compliance with all pledging requirements.

Bank owned life insurance (BOLI) increased $325 from December 31, 2011 to June 30, 2012 due to increases in the cash surrender value of the underlying insurance policies.

Office premises and equipment, net, have decreased $144 from December 31, 2011 to June 30, 2012, as a result of depreciation of $737 and disposals of $6, offset by new purchases of $599.

Total deposits at June 30, 2012 decreased $3,992 from year-end 2011. Noninterest-bearing deposits decreased $1,916 from year-end 2011, while interest-bearing deposits, including savings and time deposits, decreased $2,076 from December 31, 2011. The primary reason for the decrease in noninterest-bearing deposits was due to an increase in commercial accounts, which tend to fluctuate. The interest-bearing deposit decrease was due to an increase in savings accounts and interest-bearing demand accounts offset by decreases in time certificates and individual retirement accounts (IRA). Savings accounts increased $2,740 from year-end 2011, which included increases of $6,381 in statement savings and $1,162 in public fund money market savings, offset by a decrease in money market savings of $5,375. Interest-bearing deposits increased $13,678 from year end 2011, which included increases of $6,487 in interest-bearing checking accounts, $11,749 in interest-bearing public funds, offset by a decrease of $4,989 in NOW public funds. Time certificates, individual retirement accounts (IRA) and Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service (CDARS) decreased $15,469, $1,785 and $1,234 respectively from year end 2011. The year-to-date average balance of total deposits increased $1,139 compared to the average balance of the same period in 2011. The increase in average balance is due to increases of $12,980 in demand deposit accounts, $9,426 in statement savings accounts and $3,382 in money market savings, offset by decreases of $14,343 in time certificates and $11,871 in CDARS accounts.

Total borrowed funds have decreased $2,936 from December 31, 2011 to June 30, 2012. At June 30, 2012, the Corporation had $50,278 in outstanding Federal Home Loan Bank advances compared to $50,295 at December 31, 2011. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase, which tend to fluctuate due to timing of deposits, have decreased $2,919 from December 31, 2011 to June 30, 2012.

Shareholders’ equity at June 30, 2012 was $104,096, or 9.4 percent of total assets, compared to $102,528, or 9.2 percent of total assets at December 31, 2011. The increase in shareholders' equity resulted from net income of $2,229 plus the increase in the fair value of securities available for sale, net of tax, of $381 less preferred dividends and common dividends paid of $580 and $462, respectively. Total outstanding common shares at June 30, 2012 and 2011 were 7,707,917.

Results of Operations

Six Months Ended June 30, 2012 and 2011

The Corporation had net income of $2,229 for the six months ended June 30, 2012, an increase of $953 from net income of $1,276 for the same six months of 2011. Basic and diluted earnings per common share were $.21 for the six months of 2012, compared to $0.09 for the same period in 2011. The primary reasons for the changes in net income are explained below.

Net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $20,590, an increase of $65 from $20,525 in the same six months of 2011. Net interest income, the difference between interest income earned on interest-earning assets and interest expense incurred on interest-bearing liabilities, is the most significant component of the Corporation’s earnings. Net interest income is affected by changes in volume, rates and composition of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Total interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $23,875, a decrease of $583 from $24,458 in the same six months of 2011. Average earning assets decreased less than one percent from the six month period last year. Average loans, securities and interest-bearing deposits in other banks for the six months of 2012 increased 2.0 percent, 6.6 percent and 152.9 percent respectively compared to the six months of last year. These increases were offset by a decrease in average federal funds sold compared to the same period of 2011. The yield on earning assets decreased 12 basis points for the first six months of 2012 compared to the same period last year. The yield on loans and securities decreased 19 and 55 basis points respectively during the first six months of 2012 compared to the first six months of last year. These factors combined resulted in the decrease in total interest income for the first six months of 2012. Total interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $3,285, a decrease of $648 from $3,933 in the same six months of 2011. Interest expense on time deposits decreased $392 or 17.9 percent in the first six months of 2012 compared to the same period in 2011. Average time deposits for the first six months of 2012 decreased 9.2 percent compared to 2011. The interest rate paid on time deposits during the first six months of 2012 also decreased as compared to the same period in 2011 by 13 basis points. The Corporation’s net interest margin for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was 3.90% for both periods.

The Corporation provides for loan losses through regular provisions to the allowance for loan losses. The provision is affected by net charge-offs on loans and changes in specific and general allocations required on the allowance for loan losses. Provisions for loan losses totaled $3,865 for the six months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $5,700 for the same period in 2011. Although general reserves increased compared to December 31, 2011, specific reserves declined during the same period. Management believes the overall adequacy of the reserve for loan losses supported a reduced provision, compared to June 30, 2011.

Non-interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $5,761, an increase of $567 or 10.9 percent from $5,194 for the same period of 2011. Service charge fee income for the first six months of 2012 was $2,135, up $17 or 0.8 percent over the same period of 2011. Trust fee income was $1,069, down $3 or 0.3 percent over the same period in 2011. ATM fee income for the first six months of 2012 was $883, down $15 or 1.7 percent over the same period of 2011. BOLI contributed $324 to non-interest income during the six months ended June 30, 2012. Other non-interest income was $1,350, up $548 over the same period in 2011 as a result of the sale of loan collateral and gain on the sale of loans to the secondary market.

Non-interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $19,658, an increase of $987, from $18,671 reported for the same period of 2011. Salary and other employee costs were $10,396, up $951 or 10.1 percent as compared to the same period of 2011. This increase is mainly due to an increase in staffing in the credit and special assets departments and higher insurance costs for the first six months of 2012. The number of full-time equivalent employees increased during the first six months of 2012 to 302.8, up 9.2, compared to the same period of 2011. Occupancy and equipment costs were $1,675 down $221 or 11.7 percent compared to the same period in 2011. This decrease is mainly due to decreases in utility, grounds maintenance and equipment depreciation expenses. The decrease in utility and grounds maintenance was the result of the mild winter weather. The decrease in equipment maintenance was the result of decreased depreciation costs as assets have aged. Contracted data processing costs were $459, up $47 or 11.4 percent compared to the same period in 2011. State franchise taxes decreased by $36 compared to the same period of 2011. Amortization expense decreased $71, or 12.2 percent from the same six months of 2011, as a result of scheduled amortization of intangible assets associated with mergers. FDIC assessments were down by $229 during the first six months of 2012 compared to the same period of 2011 as a result of a change in methodology used to calculate the assessment charged to banks. The change included both a new assessment base and a change in the assessment rate. Professional service costs were $1,404, up $408 or 41.0 percent compared to the same period in 2011. The increase is mainly due to consulting services for reducing communication expenses and streamlining the Corporation’s communication services and employment search firms. In addition, professional fees have increased due to expenses related to the U. S. Treasury’s auction of its preferred stock in the Corporation. Other operating expenses were $4,207, up $138 or 3.4 percent compared to the same period of 2011. The increase in other operating expenses is due to an allowance for loss on unused commitments posted in the second quarter of 2012. In addition, a majority of the Corporation’s other operating expenses declined compared to the first quarter of 2011.

Income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2012 totaled $599, up $527 or 731.9 percent compared to the same period in 2011. The increase in the federal income tax expense is mainly a result of an increase in taxable income, primarily due to reduced provision for loan losses, this year compared to last. The effective tax rates for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and June 30, 2011 were 21.2% and 5.3%, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate is the result of an increase in taxable income compared to last year.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2012 and 2011

The Corporation had net income of $936 for the three months ended June 30, 2012, an increase of $413 from net income of $523 for the same three months of 2011. Basic and diluted earnings per common share were $.08 for the quarter ended June 30, 2012, compared to $0.03 for the same period in 2011. The primary reasons for the changes in net income are explained below.

Net interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2012 was $10,146, a decrease of $7 from $10,153 in the same three months of 2011. Total interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2012 was $11,757, a decrease of $288 from $12,045 in the same three months of 2011. Average earning assets increased 1.5 percent during the quarter ended June 30, 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011. Average loans, securities and interest-bearing deposits in other banks for the second quarter of 2012 increased 1.9 percent, 5.2 percent and 127.4 percent respectively compared to the second quarter of last year. These increases were offset by a decrease in average federal funds sold compared to the same period of 2011. The yield on earning assets decreased 21 basis points for the second quarter of 2012 compared to the second quarter of last year. The yield on loans and securities decreased 17 and 60 basis points respectively during the second quarter of 2012 compared to the second quarter of last year. These factors combined resulted in the decrease in total interest income for the second quarter of 2012. Total interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2012 was $1,611, a decrease of $281 from $1,892 in the same three months of 2011. Interest expense on time deposits decreased $190 or 17.9 percent in the second quarter of 2012 compared to the same period in 2011. Average time deposits for the second quarter of 2012 decreased 7.6 percent compared to the second quarter of 2011. The interest rate paid on time deposits during the second quarter of 2012 also decreased as compared to the same period in 2011 by 16 basis points. The Corporation’s net interest margin for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was 3.88% and 3.93%, respectively. Net interest margin decreased 5 basis points as net interest income decreased 0.1 percent while average earning assets increased by 1.5 percent.

The Corporation provides for loan losses through regular provisions to the allowance for loan losses. The provision is affected by net charge-offs on loans and changes in specific and general allocations required on the allowance for loan losses. Provisions for loan losses totaled $1,465 for the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $2,700 for the same period in 2011. Although general reserves increased compared to December 31, 2011, specific reserves declined during the same period. Management believes the overall adequacy of the reserve for loan losses supported a reduced provision, compared to March 31, 2012.

Capital Resources

Shareholders’ equity totaled $104,096 at June 30, 2012 compared to $102,528 at December 31, 2011. The increase in shareholders’ equity resulted from $2,229 of net income and a $381 net increase in the unrealized gain on securities. This was offset by preferred dividends and common dividends paid of $580 and $462, respectively. All of the Corporation’s capital ratios exceeded the regulatory minimum guidelines as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 as identified in the following table:

	Total Risk Based Capital			Tier I Risk Based  Capital			Leverage Ratio
Corporation Ratios - June 30, 2012		15.4	%		13.7	%		9.4	%
Corporation Ratios - December 31, 2011		15.1	%		13.8	%		9.3	%
For Capital Adequacy Purposes		8.0	%		4.0	%		4.0	%
To Be Well Capitalized Under Prompt Corrective Action Provisions		10.0	%		6.0	%		5.0	%

The Corporation paid a cash dividend of $.03 per common share each on February 1, and May 1, 2012. The Corporation did not pay a cash dividend on its common shares during the first six months of 2011. The Corporation paid a 5% cash dividend on its preferred shares issued to the U.S. Treasury pursuant to TARP in the amount of approximately $290 each on February 15, and May 15, 2012 and February 15, and May 15, 2011.

Liquidity

Citizens maintains a conservative liquidity position. All securities are classified as available for sale. Securities, with maturities of one year or less, totaled $4,931, or 2.3 percent of the total security portfolio. The available for sale portfolio helps to provide the Corporation with the ability to meet its funding needs. The Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows (Unaudited) contained in the consolidated financial statements detail the Corporation’s cash flows from operating activities resulting from net earnings.

Cash from operations for the period ended June 30, 2012 was $9,229. This includes net income of $2,229 plus net adjustments of $7,000 to reconcile net earnings to net cash provided by operations. Cash provided by investing activities was $803 for the period ended June 30, 2012. The use of cash from investing activities is primarily due to securities purchases. Cash received from maturing, called and sold securities totaled $52,102. Cash also was received from loans made to customers, net of principal collected, of $7,798. This increase in cash was offset by the purchase of securities of $59,169. Cash used from financing activities for the first six months of 2012 totaled $7,970. The decrease of cash from financing activities is due to the net change in deposits, change in securities sold under agreements to repurchase and dividends paid. The net change in deposits was $3,992 for the first six months of 2012. The decrease in deposits was primarily due to decreases of $1,916 in non interest-bearing deposits, $15,469 in time certificates and $1,785 in individual retirement accounts (IRA), offset by increases of $2,740 in savings deposits and $13,678 in interest-bearing demand deposits during the first six months of 2012. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase decreased $2,919 and $1,042 was used to pay dividends. Cash and cash equivalents increased from $52,127 at December 31, 2011 to $54,189 at June 30, 2012.

Future loan demand of Citizens may be funded by increases in deposit accounts, proceeds from payments on existing loans, the maturity of securities, and the sale of securities classified as available for sale. Additional sources of funds may also come from borrowing in the Federal Funds market and/or borrowing from the FHLB. Through its correspondent banks, Citizens maintains federal funds borrowing lines totaling $20,000. As of June 30, 2012, Citizens had total credit availability with the FHLB of $99,026, of which $50,278 was outstanding.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Corporation’s primary market risk exposure is interest-rate risk and, to a lesser extent, liquidity risk. All of the Corporation’s transactions are denominated in U.S. dollars with no specific foreign exchange exposure.

Interest-rate risk is the exposure of a banking organization’s financial condition to adverse movements in interest rates. Accepting this risk can be an important source of profitability and shareholder value. However, excessive levels of interest-rate risk can pose a significant threat to the Corporation’s earnings and capital base. Accordingly, effective risk management that maintains interest-rate risk at prudent levels is essential to the Corporation’s safety and soundness.

Evaluating a financial institution’s exposure to changes in interest rates includes assessing both the adequacy of the management process used to control interest-rate risk and the organization’s quantitative level of exposure. When assessing the interest-rate risk management process, the Corporation seeks to ensure that appropriate policies, procedures, management information systems and internal controls are in place to maintain interest-rate risk at prudent levels with consistency and continuity. Evaluating the quantitative level of interest rate risk exposure requires the Corporation to assess the existing and potential future effects of changes in interest rates on its consolidated financial condition, including capital adequacy, earnings, liquidity and, where appropriate, asset quality.

The Federal Reserve Board, together with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, adopted a Joint Agency Policy Statement on interest-rate risk, effective June 26, 1996. The policy statement provides guidance to examiners and bankers on sound practices for managing interest-rate risk, which will form the basis for ongoing evaluation of the adequacy of interest-rate risk management at supervised institutions. The policy statement also outlines fundamental elements of sound management that have been identified in prior Federal Reserve guidance and discusses the importance of these elements in the context of managing interest-rate risk. Specifically, the guidance emphasizes the need for active board of director and senior management oversight and a comprehensive risk-management process that effectively identifies, measures, and controls interest-rate risk.

Financial institutions derive their income primarily from the excess of interest collected over interest paid. The rates of interest an institution earns on its assets and owes on its liabilities generally are established contractually for a period of time. Since market interest rates change over time, an institution is exposed to lower profit margins (or losses) if it cannot adapt to interest-rate changes. For example, assume that an institution’s assets carry intermediate- or long-term fixed rates and that those assets were funded with short-term liabilities. If market interest rates rise by the time the short-term liabilities must be refinanced, the increase in the institution’s interest expense on its liabilities may not be sufficiently offset if assets continue to earn at the long-term fixed rates. Accordingly, an institution’s profits could decrease on existing assets because the institution will have either lower net interest income or, possibly, net interest expense. Similar risks exist when assets are subject to contractual interest-rate ceilings, or rate sensitive assets are funded by longer-term, fixed-rate liabilities in a decreasing-rate environment.

(Amounts in thousands, except share data)

Several techniques may be used by an institution to minimize interest-rate risk. One approach used by the Corporation is to periodically analyze its assets and liabilities and make future financing and investment decisions based on payment streams, interest rates, contractual maturities, and estimated sensitivity to actual or potential changes in market interest rates. Such activities fall under the broad definition of asset/liability management. The Corporation’s primary asset/liability management technique is the measurement of the Corporation’s asset/liability gap, that is, the difference between the cash flow amounts of interest sensitive assets and liabilities that will be refinanced (or repriced) during a given period. For example, if the asset amount to be repriced exceeds the corresponding liability amount for a certain day, month, year, or longer period, the institution is in an asset sensitive gap position. In this situation, net interest income would increase if market interest rates rose or decrease if market interest rates fell. If, alternatively, more liabilities than assets will reprice, the institution is in a liability sensitive position. Accordingly, net interest income would decline when rates rose and increase when rates fell. Also, these examples assume that interest rate changes for assets and liabilities are of the same magnitude, whereas actual interest rate changes generally differ in magnitude for assets and liabilities.

Several ways an institution can manage interest-rate risk include selling existing assets or repaying certain liabilities; matching repricing periods for new assets and liabilities, for example, by shortening terms of new loans or securities; and hedging existing assets, liabilities, or anticipated transactions. An institution might also invest in more complex financial instruments intended to hedge or otherwise change interest-rate risk. Interest rate swaps, futures contracts, options on futures, and other such derivative financial instruments often are used for this purpose. Because these instruments are sensitive to interest rate changes, they require management expertise to be effective. The Corporation has not purchased derivative financial instruments in the past and does not currently intend to purchase such instruments in the near future. Financial institutions are also subject to prepayment risk in falling rate environments. For example, mortgage loans and other financial assets may be prepaid by a debtor so that the debtor may refinance its obligations at new, lower rates. Prepayments of assets carrying higher rates reduce the Corporation’s interest income and overall asset yields. A large portion of an institution’s liabilities may be short-term or due on demand, while most of its assets may be invested in long-term loans or securities. Accordingly, the Corporation seeks to have in place sources of cash to meet short-term demands. These funds can be obtained by increasing deposits, borrowing, or selling assets. FHLB advances and wholesale borrowings may also be used as important sources of liquidity for the Corporation.

The following table provides information about the Corporation’s financial instruments that were sensitive to changes in interest rates as of December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2012, based on certain prepayment and account decay assumptions that management believes are reasonable. The table shows the changes in the Corporation’s net portfolio value (in amount and percent) that would result from hypothetical interest rate increases of 200 basis points and 100 basis points and an interest rate decrease of 100 basis points at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

The Corporation had no derivative financial instruments or trading portfolio as of December 31, 2011 or June 30, 2012. Expected maturity date values for interest-bearing core deposits were calculated based on estimates of the period over which the deposits would be outstanding. The Corporation’s borrowings were tabulated by contractual maturity dates and without regard to any conversion or repricing dates.

	Net Portfolio Value
	June 30, 2012								December 31, 2011
Change in	Dollar		Dollar			Percent			Dollar		Dollar		Percent
Rates	Amount		Change			Change			Amount		Change		Change
+200bp		123,486		(6,914	)		-5	%		135,092		669		0	%
+100bp		124,321		(6,079	)		-5	%		135,299		876		1	%
Base		130,400		—			—			134,423		—		—
-100bp		156,614		26,214			20	%		153,916		19,493		15	%

The change in net portfolio value from December 31, 2011 to June 30, 2012, is primarily a result of two factors. The yield curve has shifted downward slightly and become slightly steeper, on the short end, since the end of the year. Additionally, both the mix and/or volume of assets and funding sources have changed. While the volume of assets is nearly unchanged, the mix has shifted away from loans toward securities and cash, which leads to greater volatility. Funding sources have increased while the funding mix shifted from CDs and borrowed money to deposits. The shifts in mixes led to the decrease in the base. Beyond the change in the base level of net portfolio value, overall projected movements, given specific changes in rates, would lead to generally larger changes in the value of assets. The change in the rates up scenarios for both the 100 and 200 basis point movements would lead to a faster decrease in the fair value of assets, compared to liabilities. Accordingly we would see a decrease in the net portfolio value. A downward change in rates would lead to an increase in the net portfolio value as the fair value of liabilities would increase much more slowly than the fair value of the asset portfolio.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

Part II—Other Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Citizens has been engaged in a legal action with the Ohio Department of Agriculture ("ODA") over proceeds from the sale of grain that served as collateral for a loan made by Citizens. Most of the money that is the subject of the litigation is held in an account pending the outcome of the litigation. However, the ODA also claimed that Citizens received and applied some proceeds of earlier grain sales. Recently, the Common Pleas Court of Erie County rendered a decision that the ODA was entitled to approximately $163,000 in addition to the funds held in the account. Citizens believes that the court's decision is erroneous, particularly with respect to the amount determined to be due from Citizens, and is proceeding with an appeal of the decision.

Consolidated Financial Statements

Consolidated Financial Statements [Abstract]

Consolidated Financial Statements

(1) Consolidated Financial Statements

Nature of Operations and Principles of Consolidation: The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of First Citizens Banc Corp (FCBC) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries: The Citizens Banking Company (Citizens), First Citizens Insurance Agency, Inc., and Water Street Properties, Inc. (Water St.). First Citizens Capital LLC (FCC) is wholly-owned by Citizens and holds inter-company debt. The operations of FCC are located in Wilmington, Delaware. First Citizens Investments, Inc. (FCI) is wholly-owned by Citizens and holds and manages Citizens’ securities portfolio. The operations of FCI are located in Wilmington, Delaware. The above companies together are referred to as the “Corporation”. Intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Corporation without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Corporation’s financial position as of June 30, 2012 and its results of operations and changes in cash flows for the periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 have been made. The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with instructions of Form 10-Q, and therefore certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America have been omitted. The results of operations for the period ended June 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year. Reference is made to the accounting policies of the Corporation described in the notes to the financial statements contained in the Corporation’s 2011 annual report. The Corporation has consistently followed these policies in preparing this Form 10-Q.

The Corporation provides financial services through its offices in the Ohio counties of Erie, Crawford, Champaign, Franklin, Logan, Madison, Summit, Huron, Union, Ottawa, and Richland. Its primary deposit products are checking, savings, and term certificate accounts, and its primary lending products are residential mortgage, commercial, and installment loans. Substantially all loans are secured by specific items of collateral including business assets, consumer assets and commercial and residential real estate. Commercial loans are expected to be repaid from cash flow from operations of businesses. There are no significant concentrations of loans to any one industry or customer. However, the customers’ ability to repay their loans is dependent on the real estate and general economic conditions in the area. Other financial instruments that potentially represent concentrations of credit risk include deposit accounts in other financial institutions and Federal Funds sold. First Citizens Insurance Agency, Inc. was formed to allow the Corporation to participate in commission revenue generated through its third party insurance agreement. Insurance commission revenue was less than 1.0% of total revenue through June 30, 2012. Water St. revenue was less than 1.0% of total revenue through June 30, 2012. Management considers the Corporation to operate primarily in one reportable segment, banking.

Use of Estimates: To prepare financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management makes estimates and assumptions based on available information. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported in financial statements and the disclosures provided, and future results could differ. The allowance for loan losses, impairment of goodwill, fair values of financial instruments, deferred taxes and pension obligations are particularly subject to change.

Income Taxes: Income tax expense is based on the effective tax rate expected to be applicable for the entire year. Income tax expense is the total of the current year income tax due or refundable and the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are the expected future tax amounts for the temporary differences between carrying amounts and tax basis of assets and liabilities, computed using enacted tax rates. A valuation allowance, if needed, reduces deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

Reclassifications: Some items in the prior year financial statements were reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

Adoption of New Accounting Standards:

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-09, Compensation-Retirement Benefits-Multiemployer Plans (Subtopic 715-80): Disclosures about an Employer’s Participation in a Multiemployer Plan. The amendments in this Update will require additional disclosures about an employer’s participation in a multiemployer pension plan to enable users of financial statements to assess the potential cash flow implications relating to an employer’s participation in multiemployer pension plans. The disclosures also will indicate the financial health of all of the significant plans in which the employer participates and assist a financial statement user to access additional information that is available outside the financial statements. For public entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for annual periods for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted. The amendments should be applied retrospectively for all prior periods presented. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Corporation’s financial statements.

Effect of Newly Issued but Not Yet Effective Accounting Standards:

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-10, Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Derecognition of in Substance Real Estate-a Scope Clarification. The amendments in this Update affect entities that cease to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary that is in substance real estate as a result of default on the subsidiary's nonrecourse debt. Under the amendments in this Update, when a parent (reporting entity) ceases to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary that is in substance real estate as a result of default on the subsidiary's nonrecourse debt, the reporting entity should apply the guidance in Subtopic 360-20 to determine whether it should derecognize the in substance real estate. Generally, a reporting entity would not satisfy the requirements to derecognize the in substance real estate before the legal transfer of the real estate to the lender and the extinguishment of the related nonrecourse indebtedness. That is, even if the reporting entity ceases to have a controlling financial interest under Subtopic 810-10, the reporting entity would continue to include the real estate, debt, and the results of the subsidiary's operations in its consolidated financial statements until legal title to the real estate is transferred to legally satisfy the debt. The amendments in this Update should be applied on a prospective basis to deconsolidation events occurring after the effective date. Prior periods should not be adjusted even if the reporting entity has continuing involvement with previously derecognized in substance real estate entities. For public entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after June 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Corporation’s financial statements.

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. The amendments in this Update affect all entities that have financial instruments and derivative instruments that are either (1) offset in accordance with either Section 210-20-45 or Section 815-10-45 or (2) subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement. The requirements amend the disclosure requirements on offsetting in Section 210-20-50. This information will enable users of an entity's financial statements to evaluate the effect or potential effect of netting arrangements on an entity's financial position, including the effect or potential effect of rights of setoff associated with certain financial instruments and derivative instruments in the scope of this Update. An entity is required to apply the amendments for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. An entity should provide the disclosures required by those amendments retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. The Corporation is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the standard will have on the Corporation’s financial position or results of operations.

Fair Value Measurement [Abstract]

Fair Value Measurement

(9) Fair Value Measurement

The Corporation uses a fair value hierarchy to measure fair value. The topic describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value. Level 1: Quoted prices for identical assets in active markets that are identifiable on the measurement date; Level 2: Significant other observable inputs, such as quoted prices for similar assets, quoted prices in markets that are not active and other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data; Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Corporation’s own view about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset.

Securities: The fair values of securities available for sale are determined by matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely used in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities, but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 2 inputs). Management uses significant unobservable inputs to determine the fair value of one security (Level 3 inputs). These inputs include appraised values of the underlying collateral and estimated costs to sell the collateral. The value of the collateral has been discounted to represent the value in a distressed sale situation.

Equity securities: The Corporation’s equity securities are not actively traded in an open market. The fair values of these equity securities available for sale are determined by using market data inputs for similar securities that are observable. (Level 2 inputs).

Impaired loans: The fair values of impaired loans are determined using the fair values of collateral for collateral dependent loans, or discounted cash flows. The Corporation uses independent appraisals, discounted cash flow models and other available data to estimate the fair value of collateral (Level 3 inputs).

Other real estate owned: The fair value of other real estate owned is determined using the fair value of collateral. The Corporation uses appraisals and other available data to estimate the fair value of collateral (Level 3 inputs). The appraised values are discounted to represent an estimated value in a distressed sale. Additionally, estimated costs to sell the property are used to further adjust the value.

Assets measured at fair value are summarized below.

The fair value measurement for equity securities in financial institutions at December 31, 2011 was determined using Level 1 quoted market prices. No transactions have occurred since December 31, 2011 therefore the fair value of the equity securities in financial institutions at June 30, 2012 is measured using Level 2 observable market data inputs.

Subordinated debentures		29,427		26,461
Accrued interest payable		258		258

Cash and due from financial institutions:

The carrying amounts for cash and due from financial institutions approximate fair value because they have original maturities of less than 90 days and do not present unanticipated credit concerns.

Available-for-sale securities:

The fair value of securities are determined by matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely used in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for specific securities. Instead, this method relies on the securities relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 2 inputs). For equity securities, management uses market information related to the value of similar institutions to determine the fair value (Level 2 inputs). Management uses significant unobservable inputs to determine the fair value of one security (Level 3 inputs). These inputs include appraised values of the underlying collateral and estimated costs to sell the collateral. The value of the collateral has been discounted to represent the value in a distressed sale situation.

Other securities:

The carrying value of regulatory stock approximates fair value based on applicable redemption provisions.

Loans, available-for-sale:

Loans held for sale are priced individually at market rates on the day that the loan is locked for commitment to an investor. Because the holding period of such loans is typically short, the carrying value generally approximates the fair value at the time the commitment is received. All loans in the held-for-sale account conform to Fannie Mae underwriting guidelines, with specific intent of the loan being purchased by an investor at the predetermined rate structure.

Loans, net of allowance for loan losses:

Fair values for loans, other than impaired, are estimated for portfolios of loans with similar financial characteristics. The fair value of performing loans has been estimated by discounting expected future cash flows of the underlying portfolios. The discount rates used in these calculations are generally derived from the treasury yield curve and are calculated by discounting scheduled cash flows through the estimated maturity using estimated market discount rates that reflect the credit and interest rate inherent in the loan. The estimated maturity is based on the Corporation’s historical experience with repayments for each loan classification. The off-balance-sheet items are based on the current fees or cost that would be charged to enter into or terminate such arrangements and are considered nominal. Changes in these significant unobservable inputs used in discounted cash flow analysis, such as the discount rate or prepayment speeds, could lead to changes in the underlying fair value.

Bank owned life insurance:

The carrying value of bank owned life insurance approximates the fair value based on applicable redemption provisions.

Accrued interest receivable and payable and securities sold under agreements to repurchase:

The carrying amounts for accrued interest receivable, accrued interest payable and securities sold under agreements to repurchase approximate fair value because they are generally received or paid in 90 days or less and do not present unanticipated credit concerns.

Deposits:

The fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as noninterest-bearing demand deposits, savings and NOW accounts, and money market accounts, is equal to the amount payable on demand.

The fair value of certificates of deposit is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

The deposits’ fair value estimates do not include the benefit that results from the low-cost funding provided by the deposit liabilities compared to the cost of borrowing funds in the market, commonly referred to as the core deposit intangible.

Federal Home Loan Bank advances:

Rates available to the Corporation for borrowed funds with similar terms and remaining maturities are used to estimate the fair value of borrowed funds.

Subordinated debentures:

The fair value of subordinated debentures is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows of the underlying debt agreements. The discount rate is estimated using the current rate for a 30 year mortgage-matched secured borrowing from the FHLB.

Participation in the Treasury Capital Purchase Program

(10) Participation in the Treasury Capital Purchase Program

On January 23, 2009, the Corporation completed the sale to the U.S. Treasury of $23,184 of newly-issued non-voting preferred shares as part of the Capital Purchase Program (CPP) enacted by the U.S. Treasury as part of the Troubled Assets Relief Program (TARP) under the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (EESA). To finalize the Corporation’s participation in the CPP, the Corporation and the Treasury entered into a Letter Agreement, dated January 23, 2009, including the Securities Purchase Agreement – Standard Terms attached thereto. Pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Corporation issued and sold to Treasury (1) 23,184 Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Shares, Series A, each without par value and having a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share (Preferred Shares), and (2) a Warrant to purchase 469,312 common shares of the Corporation, each without par value, at an exercise price of $7.41 per share. The Warrant has a ten-year term. All of the proceeds from the sale of the Preferred Shares and the Warrant by the Corporation to the U.S. Treasury under the CPP qualify as Tier 1 capital for regulatory purposes. Under the standardized CPP terms, cumulative dividends on the Preferred Shares will accrue on the liquidation preference at a rate of 5% per annum for the first five years, and at a rate of 9% per annum thereafter, but will be paid only if, as and when declared by the Corporation’s Board of Directors. The Preferred Shares have no maturity date and rank senior to the common shares with respect to the payment of dividends and distributions and amounts payable upon liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Corporation.

On July 3, 2012, the U.S. Treasury completed the sale of all 23,184 of the Preferred Shares to various investors pursuant to a modified “Dutch auction” process. As a result of the U.S. Treasury’s sale of all of the Preferred Shares, the executive compensation and corporate governance standards which applied to the Corporation as a participant in the CPP, which standards were most recently set forth in the Interim Final Rule on TARP Standards for Compensation and Corporate Governance, published June 15, 2009, are no longer applicable to the Corporation.

Allowance for Loan Losses [Abstract]

Allowance for Loan Losses

(4) Allowance for Loan Losses

Management has an established methodology to determine the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses that assesses the risks and losses inherent in the loan portfolio. For purposes of determining the allowance for loan losses, the Corporation has segmented certain loans in the portfolio by product type. Loans are segmented into the following pools: Commercial and Agricultural loans, Commercial Real Estate loans, Real Estate Mortgage loans, Real Estate Construction loans and Consumer loans. Historical loss percentages for each risk category are calculated and used as the basis for calculating loan loss allowance allocations. These historical loss percentages are calculated over a three-year period for all portfolio segments. Certain economic factors are also considered for trends which management uses to establish the directionality of changes to the unallocated portion of the reserve. The following economic factors are analyzed:

• Changes in lending policies and procedures

• Changes in experience and depth of lending and management staff

• Changes in quality of Bank’s credit review system

• Changes in nature and volume of the loan portfolio

• Changes in past due, classified and nonaccrual loans and TDRs

• Changes in economic and business conditions

• Changes in competition or legal and regulatory requirements

• Changes in concentrations within the loan portfolio

• Changes in the underlying collateral for collateral dependent loans

The total allowance reflects management's estimate of loan losses inherent in the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. The Corporation considers the allowance for loan losses of $21,931 adequate to cover loan losses inherent in the loan portfolio, at June 30, 2012. The following tables present by portfolio segment, the changes in the allowance for loan losses and the loan balances outstanding for the period ended June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011. The allowance for Real Estate Construction loans was reduced not only by charge-offs, but also due to a decrease in both the loan balances outstanding and the historical charge-offs for this type. The net result of these changes was a reduction in the allowance for this loan type and is represented as a decrease in the provision. The allowance for consumer loans was reduced not only by charge-offs, but also due to a decrease in both the loan balances outstanding and the historical charge-offs for this type. The allowance related to the unallocated segment was also reduced.

The following table represents credit exposures by internally assigned grades for the period ended June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011. The grading analysis estimates the capability of the borrower to repay the contractual obligations of the loan agreements as scheduled or at all. Residential real estate loans with an internal credit risk grade include commercial loans that are secured by conventional 1-4 family residential properties. Real estate construction loans with an internal credit risk grade include commercial construction, land development and other land loans. The Corporation's internal credit risk grading system is based on experiences with similarly graded loans.

The Corporation’s internally assigned grades are as follows:

• Pass – loans which are protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or by the value of the underlying collateral.

• Special Mention – loans where a potential weakness or risk exists, which could cause a more serious problem if not corrected.

• Substandard – loans that have a well-defined weakness based on objective evidence and are characterized by the distinct possibility that Citizens will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

• Doubtful – loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in a substandard asset. In addition, these weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable, based on existing circumstances.

• Loss – loans classified as a loss are considered uncollectible, or of such value that continuance as an asset is not warranted.

• Unrated – Generally, consumer loans are not risk-graded, except when collateral is used for a business purpose.

The following tables present performing and nonperforming loans based solely on payment activity for the period ended June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 that have not been assigned an internal risk grade. Payment activity is reviewed by management on a monthly basis to determine how loans are performing. Loans are considered to be nonperforming when they become 90 days past due. Nonperforming loans also include certain loans that have been modified in Troubled Debt Restructurings (TDRs) where economic concessions have been granted to borrowers who have experienced or are expected to experience financial difficulties. These concessions typically result from the Corporation's loss mitigation activities and could include reductions in the interest rate, payment extensions, forgiveness of principal, forbearance or other actions. Certain TDRs are classified as nonperforming at the time of restructure and may only be returned to performing status after considering the borrower's sustained repayment performance for a reasonable period, generally six months.

Nonaccrual Loans: Loans are considered for nonaccrual status upon reaching 90 days delinquency, unless the loan is well secured and in the process of collection, although the Corporation may be receiving partial payments of interest and partial repayments of principal on such loans. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, previously accrued but unpaid interest is deducted from interest income.

The following table presents loans on nonaccrual status as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

Recidivism, or the borrower defaulting on its obligation pursuant to a modified loan, results in the loan once again becoming a non-accrual loan. Recidivism occurs at a notably higher rate than do defaults on new origination loans, so modified loans present a higher risk of loss than do new origination loans.

During the six-month period ended June 30, 2012, there were no defaults on any loans which were modified and considered TDRs during the twelve months previous to June 30, 2012.

Impaired Loans: Larger (greater than $350) commercial loans and commercial real estate loans, many of which are 60 days or more past due, are tested for impairment. These loans are analyzed to determine if it is probable that all amounts will not be collected according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. If management determines that the value of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan (net of previous charge-offs, deferred loan fees or costs and unamortized premium or discount), impairment is recognized through an allowance estimate or a charge-off to the allowance.

The following tables include the recorded investment and unpaid principal balances for impaired financing receivables with the associated allowance amount, if applicable, as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

Consolidated Financial Statements [Abstract]

Nature of Operations and Principles of Consolidation

Nature of Operations and Principles of Consolidation: The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of First Citizens Banc Corp (FCBC) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries: The Citizens Banking Company (Citizens), First Citizens Insurance Agency, Inc., and Water Street Properties, Inc. (Water St.). First Citizens Capital LLC (FCC) is wholly-owned by Citizens and holds inter-company debt. The operations of FCC are located in Wilmington, Delaware. First Citizens Investments, Inc. (FCI) is wholly-owned by Citizens and holds and manages Citizens’ securities portfolio. The operations of FCI are located in Wilmington, Delaware. The above companies together are referred to as the “Corporation”. Intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Corporation without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Corporation’s financial position as of June 30, 2012 and its results of operations and changes in cash flows for the periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 have been made. The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with instructions of Form 10-Q, and therefore certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America have been omitted. The results of operations for the period ended June 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year. Reference is made to the accounting policies of the Corporation described in the notes to the financial statements contained in the Corporation’s 2011 annual report. The Corporation has consistently followed these policies in preparing this Form 10-Q.

The Corporation provides financial services through its offices in the Ohio counties of Erie, Crawford, Champaign, Franklin, Logan, Madison, Summit, Huron, Union, Ottawa, and Richland. Its primary deposit products are checking, savings, and term certificate accounts, and its primary lending products are residential mortgage, commercial, and installment loans. Substantially all loans are secured by specific items of collateral including business assets, consumer assets and commercial and residential real estate. Commercial loans are expected to be repaid from cash flow from operations of businesses. There are no significant concentrations of loans to any one industry or customer. However, the customers’ ability to repay their loans is dependent on the real estate and general economic conditions in the area. Other financial instruments that potentially represent concentrations of credit risk include deposit accounts in other financial institutions and Federal Funds sold. First Citizens Insurance Agency, Inc. was formed to allow the Corporation to participate in commission revenue generated through its third party insurance agreement. Insurance commission revenue was less than 1.0% of total revenue through June 30, 2012. Water St. revenue was less than 1.0% of total revenue through June 30, 2012. Management considers the Corporation to operate primarily in one reportable segment, banking.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates: To prepare financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management makes estimates and assumptions based on available information. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported in financial statements and the disclosures provided, and future results could differ. The allowance for loan losses, impairment of goodwill, fair values of financial instruments, deferred taxes and pension obligations are particularly subject to change.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes: Income tax expense is based on the effective tax rate expected to be applicable for the entire year. Income tax expense is the total of the current year income tax due or refundable and the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are the expected future tax amounts for the temporary differences between carrying amounts and tax basis of assets and liabilities, computed using enacted tax rates. A valuation allowance, if needed, reduces deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

Reclassifications

Reclassifications: Some items in the prior year financial statements were reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

Compensation-Retirement Benefits-Multiemployer Plans

Adoption of New Accounting Standards:

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-09, Compensation-Retirement Benefits-Multiemployer Plans (Subtopic 715-80): Disclosures about an Employer’s Participation in a Multiemployer Plan. The amendments in this Update will require additional disclosures about an employer’s participation in a multiemployer pension plan to enable users of financial statements to assess the potential cash flow implications relating to an employer’s participation in multiemployer pension plans. The disclosures also will indicate the financial health of all of the significant plans in which the employer participates and assist a financial statement user to access additional information that is available outside the financial statements. For public entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for annual periods for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted. The amendments should be applied retrospectively for all prior periods presented. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Corporation’s financial statements.

Property, Plant, and Equipment

Effect of Newly Issued but Not Yet Effective Accounting Standards:

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-10, Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Derecognition of in Substance Real Estate-a Scope Clarification. The amendments in this Update affect entities that cease to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary that is in substance real estate as a result of default on the subsidiary's nonrecourse debt. Under the amendments in this Update, when a parent (reporting entity) ceases to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary that is in substance real estate as a result of default on the subsidiary's nonrecourse debt, the reporting entity should apply the guidance in Subtopic 360-20 to determine whether it should derecognize the in substance real estate. Generally, a reporting entity would not satisfy the requirements to derecognize the in substance real estate before the legal transfer of the real estate to the lender and the extinguishment of the related nonrecourse indebtedness. That is, even if the reporting entity ceases to have a controlling financial interest under Subtopic 810-10, the reporting entity would continue to include the real estate, debt, and the results of the subsidiary's operations in its consolidated financial statements until legal title to the real estate is transferred to legally satisfy the debt. The amendments in this Update should be applied on a prospective basis to deconsolidation events occurring after the effective date. Prior periods should not be adjusted even if the reporting entity has continuing involvement with previously derecognized in substance real estate entities. For public entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after June 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Corporation’s financial statements.

Balance Sheet

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. The amendments in this Update affect all entities that have financial instruments and derivative instruments that are either (1) offset in accordance with either Section 210-20-45 or Section 815-10-45 or (2) subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement. The requirements amend the disclosure requirements on offsetting in Section 210-20-50. This information will enable users of an entity's financial statements to evaluate the effect or potential effect of netting arrangements on an entity's financial position, including the effect or potential effect of rights of setoff associated with certain financial instruments and derivative instruments in the scope of this Update. An entity is required to apply the amendments for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. An entity should provide the disclosures required by those amendments retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. The Corporation is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the standard will have on the Corporation’s financial position or results of operations.

Fair Value Measurement

The Corporation uses a fair value hierarchy to measure fair value. The topic describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value. Level 1: Quoted prices for identical assets in active markets that are identifiable on the measurement date; Level 2: Significant other observable inputs, such as quoted prices for similar assets, quoted prices in markets that are not active and other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data; Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Corporation’s own view about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset.

Securities: The fair values of securities available for sale are determined by matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely used in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities, but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 2 inputs). Management uses significant unobservable inputs to determine the fair value of one security (Level 3 inputs). These inputs include appraised values of the underlying collateral and estimated costs to sell the collateral. The value of the collateral has been discounted to represent the value in a distressed sale situation.

Equity securities: The Corporation’s equity securities are not actively traded in an open market. The fair values of these equity securities available for sale are determined by using market data inputs for similar securities that are observable. (Level 2 inputs).

Impaired loans: The fair values of impaired loans are determined using the fair values of collateral for collateral dependent loans, or discounted cash flows. The Corporation uses independent appraisals, discounted cash flow models and other available data to estimate the fair value of collateral (Level 3 inputs).

Other real estate owned: The fair value of other real estate owned is determined using the fair value of collateral. The Corporation uses appraisals and other available data to estimate the fair value of collateral (Level 3 inputs). The appraised values are discounted to represent an estimated value in a distressed sale. Additionally, estimated costs to sell the property are used to further adjust the value.

Accounting for Costs Associated with Acquiring or Renewing Insurance Contracts

Bank owned life insurance:

The carrying value of bank owned life insurance approximates the fair value based on applicable redemption provisions.

Earnings per Common Share

(5) Earnings per Common Share

Basic earnings per share are net income available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share include the dilutive effect, if any, of additional potential common shares issuable under stock options, computed using the treasury stock method.

Commitments, Contingencies and Off-Balance Sheet Risk

(6) Commitments, Contingencies and Off-Balance Sheet Risk

Some financial instruments, such as loan commitments, credit lines, letters of credit and overdraft protection are issued to meet customers’ financing needs. These are agreements to provide credit or to support the credit of others, as long as the conditions established in the contract are met, and usually have expiration dates. Commitments may expire without being used. Off-balance-sheet risk of credit loss exists up to the face amount of these instruments, although material losses are not anticipated. The same credit policies are used to make such commitments as are used for loans, including obtaining collateral at exercise of commitment. The contractual amount of financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk was as follows for June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011:

	Contract Amount
	June 30, 2012				December 31, 2011
	Fixed		Variable		Fixed		Variable
	Rate		Rate		Rate		Rate
Commitment to extend credit:
Lines of credit and construction loans	$	10,110	$	112,745	$	6,913	$	111,710
Overdraft protection		1,309		17,940		1,320		17,828
Letters of credit		200		431		200		424
	$	11,619	$	131,116	$	8,433	$	129,962

Commitments to make loans are generally made for a period of one year or less. Fixed rate loan commitments included in the table above had interest rates ranging from 2.25% to 15.0% at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. Maturities extend up to 30 years.

Citizens is required to maintain certain reserve balances on hand in accordance with the Federal Reserve Board requirements. The average reserve balance maintained in accordance with such requirements was $1,112 on June 30, 2012 and $998 on December 31, 2011.

Stock Options

(8) Stock Options

Options to buy stock could be granted to directors, officers and employees under the Corporation’s Stock Option and Stock Appreciation Rights Plan, which provided for issue of up to 225,000 options. The exercise price of stock options is determined based on the market price of the Corporation’s common shares at the date of grant. The maximum option term is ten years, and options normally vest after three years.

The Corporation did not grant any stock options during the first six months of 2012 or 2011, nor did any stock options become vested during the first six months of 2012 or 2011. The Corporation’s Stock Option and Stock Appreciation Rights Plan expired in 2010, and no further stock options or other awards may be granted by the Corporation under such plan.

A summary of the activity in the plan is as follows:

	Six months ended June 30, 2012				Six months ended June 30, 2011
	Total options outstanding				Total options outstanding
			Weighted				Weighted
			Average				Average

$35.00		10,000		9.5 mos.		35.00
Outstanding at quarter-end		29,500		3 mos.	$	25.42

The intrinsic value for stock options is calculated based on the exercise price of the underlying awards and the market price of our common shares as of the reporting date. As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the aggregate intrinsic value of outstanding stock options was $0. A total of 19,500 stock options with an exercise price of $20.50 will expire on July 2, 2012.

At June 30, 2012 there are twenty-four securities in the portfolio with unrealized losses. Unrealized losses on securities have not been recognized into income because the issuers’ securities are of high credit quality, management has the intent and ability to hold these securities for the foreseeable future, and the decline in fair value is largely due to market yields increasing across the municipal sector partly due to higher risk premiums associated with municipal insurers. The fair value is expected to recover as the securities approach their maturity date or reset date. The Corporation does not intend to sell until recovery and does not believe selling will be required before recovery.
