All of these adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-QSB. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in the Company's annual report for the year ended December 31, 2003. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts for the Company and Citizens Bank of East Tennessee, (the "Bank"). All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. 2. Long-Term Debt The Company's long-term debt consists of a single note payable in the amount of $980,000 at March 31, 2004, due to an unaffiliated bank. The interest rate on the note adjusts quarterly and is equal to the three-months London Interbank Offered Rate (Three Month LIBOR) plus 1.95% per annum or at the option of the Company, the rate on the note is equal to the lender's index rate as such rate changes from time to time. The Company may change interest rate options at any time with prior notice to the lender. Interest is payable quarterly. At March 31, 2004, the rate on the note was 3.08% per annum. Principal is payable annually on January 31 as follows: 2005 470,000 2006 (final maturity) 510,000 ------------ $ 980,000 ============ The loan is secured by all of the stock of Citizens Bank of East Tennessee owned by the Company. The note agreement contains financial and operating covenants. As of March 31, 2004, the Company is in compliance with these covenants. 3. Contingencies During the course of business, the Company makes various commitments and incurs certain contingent liabilities that are not presented in the accompanying balance sheet. The commitments and contingent liabilities may include various guarantees, commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit, and litigation. In the opinion of management, no material adverse effect on the financial position, liquidity or operating results of the Company and its subsidiary is anticipated as a result of these items. -7- 4. Certain Regulatory Matters As a result of certain findings in the Tennessee Department of Financial Institution's Report of Examination dated June 4, 2001, the Board of Directors of the Bank entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (the "Memorandum"), dated August 16, 2001, with the Commissioner of the Tennessee Department of Financial Institutions and the Memphis Regional Director of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. A Memorandum of Understanding is an informal administrative tool for institutions that have some weaknesses that if not properly addressed and corrected could lead to supervisory concern requiring formal administrative action. The areas addressed in the Memorandum cover capital adequacy, laws and regulations, data processing audit and review, investment policy maturity strategies, adequate documentation of each of the foregoing but primarily credit administration. As a result, the Board has reviewed a number of the Bank's policies and procedures including its loan policy and has incorporated recommendations designed to strengthen credit quality and the Bank's review procedures regarding loan loss reserve adequacy. Management of the Company and the Bank believe that the Bank is in substantial compliance with the provisions of the Memorandum. -8- Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations As of and for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2004 and 2003. The following provides a narrative discussion and analysis of significant changes in the results of operations and financial condition of Volunteer Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company"). This discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related financial analysis set forth in the Company's 2003 Annual Report, the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes for the three months ended March 31, 2004, included elsewhere herein, and the supplemental financial data included herein. CAUTIONARY STATEMENT ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION This discussion contains certain forward-looking statements (as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995). Such statements are based on management's expectations as well as certain assumptions made by, and information available to, management. Specifically, this discussion contains forward-looking statements with respect to the following items: - effects of projected changes in interest rates, - effects of changes in the securities markets, - effects of changes in general economic conditions, - the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses on loans and the level of future provisions for losses on loans, and - business plans for the year 2004 and beyond including underwriting criteria. When used in this discussion, the words "anticipate", "project", "expect", "believe", "should", and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties including changes in general economic and financial market conditions, changes in banking laws and regulations, and the Company's ability to execute its business plans. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, actual results could differ materially. SUMMARY The Company reported net income for the first three months of 2004 of $238,887, or $.44 per common share, compared to net income of $161,532 or $0.30 per common share, for the same period a year ago. Total assets decreased $1,790,887 from December 31, 2003 to March 31, 2004. Our return on average assets was .88% for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 compared to .58% for the same period a year ago. This improvement is primarily due to significantly lower loan loss provisions and a decrease in non-interest expenses. FINANCIAL CONDITION Earning Assets. Average earning assets have remained constant as a percentage of total average assets since year end. Average earning assets to Average Assets is 90.7% for three months ended March 31, 2004 compared to 90.7% for all of 2003. -9- Loan Portfolio. The Company's total loan portfolio increased by 6.3% at March 31, 2004 compared to December 31, 2003. There were differences in the mix as summarized below. March 31 December 31 2004 2003 ---- ---- (in thousands) Commercial, financial and agriculture $ 5,530 $ 4,721 Real estate - construction 1,528 992 Real estate - mortgage 56,455 54,588 Consumer 8,443 7,765 Other 2,058 1,565 ----------- ----------- $ 74,014 $ 69,631 =========== =========== Allowance for Possible Loan Losses. Lending officers are responsible for the ongoing review and administration of each loan. They make the initial identification of loans that present some difficulty in collection or where there is an indication that the probability of loss exists. Lending officers are responsible for the collection effort on a delinquent loan. Senior management is informed of the status of delinquent and problem loans on a weekly basis. Senior management makes recommendations monthly to the Board of Directors as to charge-offs. Senior management reviews the allowance for possible loan losses on a monthly basis. The Company's policy is to discontinue interest accrual when payment of principal and interest is 90 days or more in arrears, unless there is sufficient collateral to justify continued accrual. The allowance for losses represents management's assessment of the risks associated with extending credit and its evaluation of the quality of the loan portfolio. Management analyzes the loan portfolio to determine the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses and the appropriate provisions required to maintain a level considered adequate to absorb probable incurred loan losses. The provision for loan losses was $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 as compared to $100,000 in the same period in 2003. The allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2004 was 1.16% of loans. Management believes that the $858,892 at March 31, 2004 is adequate to absorb known risks in the portfolio. The following table provides the changes in the allowance for loan losses for the periods indicated. Three Months Ended March 31 2004 2003 ---- ---- (in thousands) Balance, beginning of year $ 911 $ 1,111 Provision charged to expense 0 100 Loans charged off (60) (134) Recoveries 7 12 --------- ---------- Balance, end of year $ 858 $ 1,089 -10- Investment Portfolio. The Company maintains an investment strategy of seeking portfolio yields within acceptable risk levels, as well as providing liquidity. The Company maintains two classifications of investment securities; Available for Sale and Held to Maturity. The Available for Sale securities are carried at fair market value, whereas the Held to Maturity securities are carried at amortized cost. At March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, there was an unrealized gain in the Available for Sale securities of approximately $444,000 and $350,000, respectively. The Company's investment securities portfolio decreased approximately $4,500,000 since December 31, 2003. This decrease is primarily attributed to management's selling lower yielding securities to fund higher yielding loans. Cash Value of Life Insurance. During the first quarter of 2003, the Company invested in Bank owned life insurance to provide a higher yield than alternative investments. The cash surrender value of this life insurance is $2,112,326 at March 31, 2004. All officers of The Citizens Bank of East Tennessee as of February 15, 2003 were insured. Deposits. Deposits totaled $94,406,068 at March 31, 2004 compared to $96,712,840 at December 31, 2003. The deposit decline has primarily been in interest bearing accounts. Management has aggressively priced interest bearing deposits to improve interest margins. Additionally, management is working to limit deposit growth to core deposit customers. This limited growth will assist in management's overall strategy to meet Memorandum Guidelines established for capital. Note Payable. The company's long-term debt consists of a single note payable in the amount of $980,000 at March 31, 2004 due an unaffiliated bank and is discussed further in Note 2 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Results of Operations Net income increased to $238,887 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 from $161,532 in the same period in 2003. Net interest income decreased .51% for the three months ended March 31, 2004 compared to the same period in 2003 from $1,086,969 to $1,081,423. The provision for loan losses decreased $100,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2004 compared to the same periods last year. Non-performing assets decreased $2,016,000 from December 31, 2003 to March 31, 2004. Non-performing assets were as follows as of March 31, 2004 and December 31,2003: March 31 December 31 2004 2003 ---- ---- (in thousands) Loans past due over 90 days $ 114 $ 1,035 Non-accrual loans 350 175 Other real estate owned 264 1,534 ----------- ----------- Total non-performing assets $ 728 $ 2,744 =========== =========== -11- Non-Interest Income. Gains on the sale of securities decreased $83,658 during the first three months of 2004 compared to 2003. Service charges increased slightly in 2004. Non-Interest Expense. Salaries and employee benefits decreased $23,581 in the three months ended March 31, 2004 compared to 2003. Occupancy and equipment expenses decreased $7,119 in the three months ended March 31, 2004 compared to 2003. Other expenses were lower in the three months ended March 31, 2004 than in 2003 due to reduced professional and legal fees. Item 3. Controls and Procedures (a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company's President and its Vice President and Cashier have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-14(c)) as of a date within 90 days of the filing date of this quarterly report. Based on that evaluation, the President and the Vice President and Cashier have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that material information relating to the Company and the Company's consolidated subsidiaries is made known to such officers by others within these entities, particularly during the period this quarterly report was prepared, in order to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. (b) Changes in Internal Controls. There have not been any significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation. -12- PART II - OTHER INFORMATION Item 1.
