NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1.

Business and Nature of Operations

 

     Three Rivers Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") is a bank holding company headquartered in Monroeville, Pennsylvania. Through its banking subsidiary the Company operates 25 banking offices in three southwestern Pennsylvania counties. These offices provide a full range of consumer, mortgage and commercial financial products.

 

2.

Basis of Presentation

 

     The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Three Rivers Bancorp, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Three Rivers Bank and Trust Company ("Three Rivers Bank").  Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements.

 

     The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments that are of a normal recurring nature and are considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  They are not, however, necessarily indicative of the results of consolidated operations for a full-year.

 

     For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company's annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2001, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as part of Three Rivers Bancorp, Inc.'s Form 10K filing.

 

     Basic earnings per share includes, only the weighted average common shares outstanding.  Diluted earnings per share includes, the weighted average common shares outstanding and any dilutive common stock equivalent shares in the calculation.

 

     On a consolidated basis, cash equivalents include cash and due from banks, interest-bearing deposits with banks, and federal funds sold and securities purchased under agreements to resell.  During the first six months of 2002, the Company made payments of $2,550,000 for federal income taxes.  During the first six months of 2001, the Company made payments totaling $1,050,000 for federal income taxes.  Total interest expense paid amounted to $15,535,000 in 2002's first six months compared to $21,021,000 in the same 2001 period.

3.

Acquisition

 

     On July 1, 2001, the Company completed its acquisition of the Pennsylvania Capital Bank ("PA Capital Bank"), which had one office located in downtown Pittsburgh, Allegheny County.

 

     At the acquisition date, the fair value of PA Capital's net assets totaled approximately $16 million, which included cash of $43.4 million, loans receivable with a fair value of $83.7 million, investment securities and other assets with a fair value of $12.7, deposits with a fair value of $123.5 million and other liabilities with a fair value of $279,000.  As a result of the transaction, $4.8 million of core deposit intangible ($3.1 million net of taxes) was recorded and is being amortized over 11 years.  Additionally, the fair value adjustments required by purchase accounting rules consisted of $582,000 (378,000 net of taxes) and are being recognized as yield adjustments over eight years.  Goodwill arising from the transaction totaled $6.5 million.

 

     Condensed Pro forma combined historical results of operations for the prior year as though the Company and PA Capital Bank had been combined at the beginning of 2001 are presented below.  For 2002, actual results of operations are used for comparative purposes since the operations of PA Capital Bank have been consolidated with the Company's during that period.  These unaudited condensed pro forma combined statements of operations, both pro forma and actual, are presented as if the acquisition had been effective on January 1, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

     The unaudited condensed pro forma combined statement of operations include the estimated effect of pro forma adjustments that would have been realized had the acquisition actually occurred at the beginning of the respective periods.

4.

Comprehensive Income

 

     Comprehensive income totaled $8.0 million and $531,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and $9.3 million and $5.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.  Differences between comprehensive income and net income for these periods result entirely from investment security unrealized holding gains and losses, net of income taxes.

 

5.

Investment Securities

 

     Securities classified as available for sale include securities that may be sold to effectively manage interest rate risk exposure, prepayment risk, and other factors (such as liquidity requirements).  These available for sale securities are reported at estimated fair value with unrealized aggregate appreciation/(depreciation) excluded from income and credited/(charged) to a separate component of shareholders' equity on a net of tax basis. The change in the estimated fair value of the available for sale portfolio does inject more volatility in the book value of equity, but has no impact on regulatory capital. The Company presently does not engage in trading activity.  Realized gain or loss on securities sold was computed upon the adjusted cost of the specific securities sold.  The book and estimated fair values of investment securities are summarized as follows (in thousands):

Non-performing Assets

 

     Non-performing assets are comprised of (i) loans which are on a non-accrual basis, (ii) loans which are contractually past due 90 days or more as to interest or principal payments some of which are insured for credit loss, and (iii) other real estate owned (real estate acquired through foreclosure and in-substance foreclosures).  All loans, except for loans that are insured for credit loss, are placed on non-accrual status upon becoming 90 days past due in either principal or interest.  In addition, if circumstances warrant, the accrual of interest may be discontinued prior to 90 days.  In all cases, payments received on non-accrual loans are credited to principal until full recovery of principal has been recognized; it is only after full recovery of principal that any additional payments received are recognized as interest income.  The only exception to this policy is for residential mortgage loans wherein interest income is recognized on a cash basis as payments are received.

Goodwill and Core Deposit Intangible Assets

 

     The Company's balance sheet shows both tangible assets (such as loans, buildings, and investments) and intangible assets (such as goodwill and core deposit intangibles).  The Company recorded $6.0 million of goodwill and $4.8 million of core deposit intangibles in conjunction with the PA Capital Bank acquisition, as discussed in Note #3, on its balance sheet.  The remaining core deposit intangibles relate to branch acquisitions occurring in 1998 and 1999.  A reconciliation of the Company's core deposit intangible asset balance is as follows (in thousands):

 
Balance at December 31, 2001   $ 6,652  
  Amortization expense     (412 )
     
 
Balance at June 30, 2002   $ 6,240  
     
 
 
  13  
 

     The Company is amortizing core deposit intangibles over periods ranging from five to eleven years, using the straight-line method of amortization.  It is important to note that this intangible amortization expense is not a future cash outflow.  The following table reflects the future amortization expense of the intangible assets (in thousands):

     The Company's current goodwill arose from the PA Capital Bank acquisition on July 1, 2001.  On this date, the Company adopted FAS #142.  Accordingly, the Company did not recognized any amortization expense relating to this goodwill during the second half of 2001 or during the six months ended June 30, 2002.  Prior to this acquisition, the Company had no goodwill, or corresponding amortization, during 2001.  Although the Company has recognized no amortization expense relating to this goodwill, the Company will, however, periodically review the goodwill for impairment as prescribed by FAS #142.  During the second quarter, the Company completed its transitional impairment test of goodwill.  Based on the results of this test, no goodwill impairment was recorded.

     All of the above borrowings bear a fixed-rate of interest.  All FHLB stock along with an interest in mortgage loans and mortgage-backed securities, with an aggregate statutory value equal to the amount of the advances, have been pledged as collateral with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh to support these borrowings.  

 

11.

Capital

 

     The Company is subject to various capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies.  Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company's assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices.  The Company's capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.  Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company's financial statements.

 

     Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets, and of Tier 1 capital to average assets.  Management believes that as of June 30, 2002, the Company meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.

 

     As of June 30, 2002, and 2001, as well as, December 31, 2001, the Federal Reserve categorized the Company as "Well Capitalized" under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action.  To be categorized as well capitalized, the Company must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the table.  There are no conditions or events since notification that management believes have changed the Company's classification category.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF  OPERATIONS

("M.D.& A.")

 

COMPARISON OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AT JUNE 30, 2002 AND DECEMBER 31, 2001

 

.....BALANCE SHEET OVERVIEW.....The Company's total consolidated assets, which totaled $1.02 billion at June 30, 2002, remained relatively unchanged since December 31, 2001.  During the first six months of 2002, total loans increased $14.3 million as loan principal originations exceeded repayments for the six month period.  Total investment securities decreased $2.3 million during the first six months of 2002.  This decrease primarily resulted from principal repayment and sale activity exceeding purchases.  Cash and due from banks decreased $10.7 million during the first six months of 2002.  This decrease primarily resulted from loan funding, the net run off of deposits and the decrease in FHLB borrowings. 

 

Total deposits decreased by $2.2 million, or 0.3%, since December 31, 2001.  The Company's total borrowed funds position decreased $6.1 million, or 3.9%, during the period. Total equity increased by $7.4 million, which represents the effect of net income, dividends declared and an increase in the unrealized investment security holding gains, net of tax, over the period.

 

.....LOAN QUALITY.....The following table sets forth information concerning Three Rivers Bancorp, Inc.'s loan delinquency and other non-performing assets.  At all dates presented, the Company had no troubled debt restructurings which involved forgiving a portion of interest or principal on any loans at a rate materially less than that of market rates: (in thousands, except percentages):

 

    June 30,   December 31,   June 30,  
    2002   2001   2001  
   
 
 
 
Total loan delinquency (past due                    
  30 to 89 days)   $ 3,647   $ 6,840   $ 4,485  
  Total non-accrual loans     2,653     3,240     2,394  
  Total non-performing assets*     3,527     3,834     2,559  
  Loan delinquency, as a percentage                    
    of total loans and loans held                    
    for sale, net of unearned income     0.63 %   1.20 %   0.88 %
  Non-accrual loans, as a percentage                    
    of total loans and loans held                    
    for sale, net of unearned income     0.46 %   0.57 %   0.47 %
  Non-performing assets, as a percentage                    
    of total loans and loans held for sale,                    
    net of unearned income, and other                    
    real estate owned     0.61 %   0.67 %   0.50 %

    

     * Non-performing assets are comprised of (i) loans that are on a non-accrual basis, (ii) loans that are contractually past due 90 days or more as to interest and principal payments some of which are insured for credit loss, and (iii) other real estate owned.  All loans, except for loans that are insured for credit loss, are placed on non-accrual status upon becoming 90 days past due in either principal or interest.

 
  17  
 

     Between June 30, 2002, and December 31, 2001, total loan delinquency decreased $3.2 million while loans outstanding, net of unearned income, increased $14.3 million, thus causing the delinquency ratio to decrease 57 basis points to 0.63%.  Total non-performing assets decreased by $307,000 since December 31,2001 causing the non-performing assets to total loans, net of unearned income, and OREO ratio to decrease to 0.61%.  This ratio was further positively affected by the increase in total loans, net of unearned income, and OREO.

 

....ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES.....As a financial institution which assumes lending and credit risks as a principal element of its business, the Company anticipates that credit losses will be experienced in the normal course of business.  Accordingly, the Company consistently applies a comprehensive methodology and procedural discipline that is updated on a quarterly basis to determine both the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses and the necessary provision for loan losses to be charged against earnings. This methodology includes:

 

-

a detailed review of all criticized and impaired loans to determine if any specific reserve allocations are required on an individual loan basis.  The specific reserve established for these criticized and impaired loans is based on careful analysis of the loan's performance, the related collateral value, cash flow considerations and the financial capability of any guarantor.

 

-

the application of formula driven reserve allocations for certain higher risk commercial and commercial real-estate loans are calculated by using a three-year migration analysis of net losses incurred within each risk grade for the entire commercial loan portfolio.  The difference between estimated and actual losses is reconciled through the dynamic nature of the migration analysis.

 

-

the application of formula driven reserve allocations to installment and mortgage loans which are based upon historical charge-off experience for those loan types. The residential mortgage loan allocation is based upon the Company's five-year historical average of actual loan charge-offs experienced in that category. The same methodology is used to determine the allocation for consumer loans except the allocation is based upon an average of the most recent actual three-year historical charge-off experience for consumer loans.

 

     The application of formula driven reserve allocations is based upon review of historical losses and qualitative factors, which include but are not limited to, economic trends, delinquencies, concentrations of credit, trends in loan volume, experience and depth of management, examination and audit results, effects of any changes in lending policies and trends in policy exceptions.

         

     After completion of this process, a formal meeting of the Loan Loss Reserve Committee is held to make qualitative adjustments to the formula driven results and evaluate the adequacy of the provision. The Company believes that the procedural discipline, systematic methodology, and comprehensive documentation of this quarterly process is in full compliance with all regulatory requirements and provides appropriate support for accounting purposes.

 
  18  
 

     When it is determined that the prospects for recovery of the principal of a loan have significantly diminished, the loan or the determined uncollectible portion is immediately charged against the allowance account; subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance account. In addition, non-accrual and large delinquent loans are reviewed monthly to determine potential losses. Consumer loans are considered losses when they are 90 days past due, except loans that are insured for credit loss.

 

     The Company's policy is to individually review, as circumstances warrant, each of its commercial and commercial mortgage loans to determine if a loan is impaired. At a minimum, credit reviews are mandatory for all commercial and commercial mortgage loans with balances in excess of $500,000 within each calendar year.  The Company has also identified two pools of small dollar value homogeneous loans that are evaluated collectively for impairment.  These separate pools are for residential mortgage loans and consumer loans.  Individual loans within these pools are reviewed and removed from the pool if factors such as significant delinquency in payments of 90 days or more, bankruptcy, or other negative economic concerns indicate impairment

 

     The following table sets forth changes in the allowance for loan losses and certain ratios for the periods ended (in thousands, except percentages):

 

    June 30,   December 31,   June 30,  
    2002   2001   2001  
   
 
 
 
Allowance for loan losses   $ 8,205   $ 7,992   $ 5,699

  the following:                    
    total loans, net of                    
      unearned income     1.41 %   1.41     1.12 %
    total delinquent loans                    
      (past due 30 to 89 days)     224.98     116.84     127.07  
    total non-accrual loans     309.27     246.67     238.05  
    total non-performing assets     232.63     208.45     222.70  
As a percent of average loans, net of unearned income:                    
    Annualized net (recoveries) charge-offs     (0.01 )% * 0.07     0.06 %
    Annualized provision for loan losses     0.07 %   0.20     0.18 %
Total classified loans   $ 19,159   $ 17,867   $ 24,728  

 

* Includes a $251,000 recovery recognized during the six month period.  See "Provision for Loan     Losses" discussion on page 31.

 

     Since December 31, 2001, the balance in the allowance for loan losses has increased $213,000 while the balance of total loans increased by $14.3 million.  The increase in the allowance primarily results from the provision for the six month period, net of net charge-offs.  Additionally, the increase in the allowance for loan losses resulted from an increase in outstanding loan levels, as well as a shift of the loan portfolio from 1-4 family mortgage loans to loans that are more commercial in nature.  The Company's allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2002, was 309% of non-accrual loans.

 
  19  
 

     For impaired loans, the measurement of impairment may be based upon:  1) the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate; 2) the observable market price of the impaired loan; or 3) the fair value of the collateral of a collateral dependent loan.  

 

     The Company had loans totaling $5.9 million at June 30, 2002, and $733,000 at December 31, 2001, being specifically identified as impaired and a corresponding allocation reserve of $1.0 million at June 30, 2002 and $425,000 at December 31, 2001. The average outstanding balance for loans being specifically identified as impaired was $5.6 million for the first six months of 2002 compared to $752,000 for the twelve months of 2001.  All of the impaired loans are collateral dependent; therefore the fair value of the collateral of the impaired loans is evaluated in measuring the impairment.  There was no interest income recognized on impaired loans during the first six months of 2002 or 2001.

 

     The following table sets forth the allocation of the allowance for loan losses among various categories.  This allocation is determined by using the consistent quarterly procedural discipline that was discussed above.  This allocation, however, is not necessarily indicative of the specific amount or specific loan category in which future losses may ultimately occur (in thousands, except percentages):

     Although real estate-mortgage loans comprise approximately 25% of the Company's total loan portfolio, only $217,000 or 2.6% of the total allowance for loan losses is allocated against this loan category.  The real estate-mortgage loan allocation is based upon the Company's five-year historical average of actual loan charge-offs experienced in that category.  The disproportionately higher allocations for commercial loans and commercial loans secured by real estate reflect the increased credit risk associated with this type of lending and the Company's historical loss experienced in these categories.

 

     At June 30, 2002, management of the Company believes the allowance for loan losses is adequate to cover estimated losses within the Company's loan portfolio.

COMPARISON OF THE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2002 AND 2001

 

......PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW.....The Company's net income for the second quarter of 2002 totaled $2.3 million or $0.26 per share on a diluted basis.  During the second quarter, the Company incurred pre-tax merger related expenses of $539,000 (see Note #12).  Excluding these charges, net income for second quarter was $2.6 million, or $0.27 per share on a diluted basis.  The second quarter 2002 results are higher when compared with the $1.4 million or $0.21 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2001.   

 

     The Company's return on equity (ROE) averaged 10.42% for the second quarter of 2002 compared to 9.00% ROE in the second quarter of 2001.

 

     Net interest income increased by $1.8 million, or 31.4%, as a result of declining interest rates causing an increase in the net interest margin from 2.60% in the second quarter of 2001 to 3.29% in the second quarter of 2002.  The Company's equity base has been positively affected by the issuance of additional shares in connection with the PA Capital Bank acquisition and by an increase in other comprehensive income due to a increase in value of the Company's available for sale securities portfolio.  The following table summarizes some of the Company's key performance indicators (in thousands, except per share and ratios):

.....NET INTEREST INCOME AND MARGIN.....The Company's net interest income represents the amount by which interest income on earning assets exceeds interest paid on interest bearing liabilities.  Net interest income is a primary source of the Company's earnings; it is affected by interest rate fluctuations as well as changes in the amount and mix of earning assets and interest bearing liabilities.  It is the Company's philosophy to strive to optimize net interest income performance in varying interest rate environments. The following table compares the Company's net interest income performance for the second quarter of 2002 to the second quarter of 2001 (in thousands, except percentages):

     Three Rivers Bancorp's net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis increased by $1.9 million, or 31.9%, due primarily to the increase of the net interest margin percentage and an increase in average earning assets.  The net interest margin increased 69 basis points to 3.29%, reflecting a 134 basis point decrease in the cost of funds, which was partially offset by a 59 basis point decrease in the earning asset yield. Total average earning assets increased $55.7 million during the second quarter 2002 compared to the same period of 2001.  This resulted from a $63.7 million, or 12.7%, increase in total loans and a $8.9 million increase in deposits with banks.  These increases, however, were partially offset by a decrease in investments of $17.7 million, or 4.5%. 

 

     During the second quarter, the Company used the cash flow from mortgage backed securities to pay down FHLB Borrowings, which reduced interest rate risk and decreased margin compression as a result of the leverage program the Company has had in place over the last six years.

 

.....COMPONENT CHANGES IN NET INTEREST INCOME..... Regarding the separate components of net interest income, the Company's total tax-equivalent interest income for the second quarter of 2002 decreased by $511,000 or 3.1% when compared to the same 2001 period.  This decrease resulted from a decline in the yield earned on interest bearing assets, which decreased 59 basis points to 6.59% for the three month period ending June 30, 2002.  Within the earning asset base, the yield on the total loan portfolio decreased by 64 basis points to 7.33% due to the downward repricing of floating-rate loans. The yield on total investment securities decreased by 47 basis points to 5.70% due to the increased prepayments and the corresponding increase in the amortization of premiums.  The decrease in the yield earned on interest bearing assets, however, was partially offset by a $55.7 million or 6.2% increase in total average earning assets.  The increase in total average earning assets is primarily the result of assets acquired in connection with the PA Capital Bank acquisition.  

 

     The Company's total interest expense for the second quarter of 2002 decreased by $2.4 million, or 23.4% when compared to the same 2001 period.  This lower interest expense was due to the 134 basis point decrease in the yield on interest bearing liabilities, which averaged 3.98% for the second quarter 2002.  The decrease in the yield on interest bearing liabilities, however, was partially offset by an $18.5 million or 2.4% increase in total average interest bearing liabilities.

 

     Within interest-bearing liabilities, total deposits increased $103.0 million, or 19.1%.  This, however, was offset by a decrease in borrowed funds of $84.5 million, or 35.8%.  The increase in total deposits is primarily the result of deposits acquired in connection with the PA Capital Bank acquisition.  The proceeds received from investment security principal and interest receipts, security sales, as well as from the growth of the deposit base were used to pay down the higher costing borrowings as well as to fund loan originations.  FHLB advances had an average cost of 6.45% in the second quarter of 2002, which compares to the cost of 6.54% for the prior year second quarter.  However, during the second quarter of 2002, these borrowings were 304 basis points greater than the average cost of deposits, which was 3.41%. Overall, the Company's total cost of funds decreased by 134 basis points to 3.98%.

 
  22  
 

     It is recognized that interest rate risk does exist from this use of borrowed funds to leverage the balance sheet.  The Company has asset liability policy parameters that limit the maximum amount of borrowings to 40% of total assets. For the second quarter of 2002, the level of short-term borrowed funds and FHLB advances to total assets averaged 15.0%. At quarter end, the Company had borrowed funds to total assets of 14.7%, which is within the parameters set by the Board of Directors of the Company. The Company plans to continue to use cash flow from mortgage-backed securities and increasing deposits to pay down borrowings during the next several quarters.

 

     The table that follows provides an analysis of net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis setting forth (i) average assets, liabilities, and stockholders' equity, (ii) interest income earned on interest earning assets and interest expense paid on interest bearing liabilities, (iii) average yields earned on interest earning assets and average rates paid on interest bearing liabilities, (iv) Three Rivers Bancorp's interest rate spread (the difference between the average yield earned on interest earning assets and the average rate paid on interest bearing liabilities), and (v) Three Rivers Bancorp's net interest margin (net interest income as a percentage of average total interest earning assets). For purposes of this table, loan balances include non-accrual loans and interest income on loans includes loan fees or amortization of such fees which have been deferred, as well as, interest recorded on non-accrual loans as cash is received.  Additionally, a tax rate of approximately 35% is used to compute tax equivalent yields.

.....PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES..... The Company's provision for loan losses for the second quarter of 2002 totaled a negative $26,000, or an increase to income.  The negative provision resulted from a recovery of $251,000 during the quarter.  This represents a $326,000 decrease from the provision level experienced in the 2001 second quarter.  Including the aforementioned recovery, the Company recognized net loan recoveries of $152,000, or 0.11%, on an annualized basis, of average loans in the second quarter of 2002.  The Company applies a consistent methodology and procedural discipline to evaluate the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses at on a quarterly basis. (See further discussion in Note# 7 to the consolidated financial statements herein and the Allowance for Loan Losses section of the MD&A.)

 

.....NON-INTEREST INCOME.....  Non-interest income for the second quarter of 2002 totaled $1.5 million which represents a $359,000, or  30.2%, increase when compared to the same 2001 quarter.  This increase resulted primarily from gains recognized from investment security sales of $352,000 in the second quarter of 2002.  Additionally, wholesale cash processing fees increased $65,000 as a result of an expanded customer base in the second quarter of 2002.  These increases, however, were partially offset by a $57,000 decrease in service charges on deposit accounts.

 

.....NON-INTEREST EXPENSE.....  Non-interest expense for the second quarter of 2002 totaled $6.1 million which represents a $986,000, or 19.3%, increase when compared to the same 2001 quarter. This increase was primarily due to the following items:

 

-

a $389,000, or 15.7%, increase in salaries and employee benefits, which resulted from normal annual salary increases and an increase in full time equivalent employees.

 

-

A $106,000 increase in net occupany expense, which primarily resulted from a second quarter lease charge of $84,000 for the Pitt Times office, which was the former PA Capital premises.  This charge is $28,000 per month and was not incurred during the second quarter 2001.

 

-

A $153,000 increase in equipment expense, which resulted from additional depreciation expense incurred for fixed assets acquired in the PA Capital Bank transaction.  Additionally, the Company incurred a charge of $102,000 during the second quarter as a result of making computer hardware updates throughout various branches.

 

-

a $111,000 increase in amortization of core deposit intangibles that resulted from the acquisition of PA Capital Bank on July 1, 2001.

 

-

A $539,000 increase in merger related costs, which result as the merger with Sky Financial Group, Inc. progresses (see Note #12).

 

-

the above increases, however, were partially offset by a $275,000, or 37.0%, decrease in other expense.  This decrease primarily resulted from a decrease in the expenses incurred for services provided by Ameriserv Financial, Inc. of $141,000 as well as a decrease in advertising expenditures of $58,000.

 
  25  
 

.....INCOME TAX EXPENSE..... The Company's provision for income taxes for the second quarter of 2002 increased $714,000 to $935,000 from the quarter ending June 30, 2001 as a result of a higher level of pretax earnings for the three months ended June 30, 2002.  Additionally, during the second quarter 2001, the Company received a refund from Ameriserv Financial, which offset the tax provision for the quarter ending June 30, 2001.  The refund represents federal income tax overpayments made during the 1998 and 1999 tax years.  During that time, Three Rivers Bank was a consolidated entity of Amerserv Financial, and as outlined by the tax separation agreement entered into by the Companies at spin-off, the Company is entitled to Three Rivers Bank's portion of such overpayments.  The Company's tax-free asset holdings consist primarily of municipal investment securities, bank owned life insurance, and commercial loan tax anticipation notes.  A net deferred income tax liability of $2.2 million has been provided as of June 30, 2002, on the differences between taxable income for financial and tax reporting purposes.

 

.....NET OVERHEAD BURDEN..... The Company's efficiency ratio (non-interest expense divided by total revenue) decreased to 64.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2002 compared to 71.3% for the same period of 2001.  Significant factors contributing to the lower efficiency ratio in 2002 is a higher level of net interest income and non-nterest income.  These positive factors, however, were partially offset by a higher level of non-interest expense.

 

COMPARISON OF THE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2002 AND 2001

 

.....PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW.....  The Company's net income for the first six months of  2002 totaled $4.6 million or $0.53 per share on a diluted basis.  During the first six months of 2002, the Company incurred pre-tax merger related expenses of $539,000 (see Note #12).  Excluding these charges, net income for first six months of 2002 was $4.9 million, or $0.57 per share on a diluted basis.  The results from the first six months of 2002 are higher when compared with the $3.0 million or $0.44 per diluted share for the first six months of 2001.   

 

     The Company's return on equity (ROE) averaged 10.65% for the first six months of 2002 compared to 9.45% ROE reported in the first six months of 2001.

 

     Net interest income increased by $3.5 million, or 29.7%, as a result of declining interest rates causing an increase in the net interest margin from 2.63% in the first six months of 2001 to 3.29% in the same period of 2002.  The Company's equity base has been positively affected by the issuance of additional shares in connection with the PA Capital Bank acquisition as well as an increase in other comprehensive income due to an increase in value of the Company's available for sale securities portfolio.  The following table summarizes some of the Company's key performance indicators (in thousands, except per share and ratios):

     Three Rivers Bancorp's net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis increased by $3.6 million, or 30.0%, due primarily to the increase of the net interest margin percentage and an increase in average earning assets.  The net interest margin increased 66 basis points to 3.29%, reflecting a 137 basis point decrease in the cost of funds, which was partially offset by a 61 basis point decrease in the earning asset yield. Total average earning assets increased $46.9 million during the first six months of 2002 compared to the same period of 2001.  This resulted from a $70.8 million, or 14.3%, increase in total loans, a $4.5 million increase in deposits with banks and a $3.8 million increase in federal funds sold.  These increases, however, were partially offset by a decrease in investments of $32.2 million, or 8.0%. 

 

     During the first six months, the Company used the cash flow from mortgage backed securities to pay down FHLB Borrowings, which reduced interest rate risk and decreased margin compression as a result of the leverage program the Company has had in place over the last six years.

 
  27  
 

.....COMPONENT CHANGES IN NET INTEREST INCOME..... Regarding the separate components of net interest income, the Company's total tax-equivalent interest income for the first six months of 2002 decreased by $1.5 million or 4.4% when compared to the same 2001 period.  This decrease resulted from a decline in the yield earned on interest bearing assets, which decreased 61 basis points to 6.68% for the six month period ending June 30, 2002.  Within the earning asset base, the yield on the total loan portfolio decreased by 73 basis points to 7.43% due to the downward repricing of floating-rate loans. The yield on total investment securities decreased by 49 basis points to 5.71% due to the increased prepayments and the corresponding increase in the amortization of premiums.  The decrease in yield on interest earning assets, however, was partially offset by a $46.9 million or 5.2% increase in total average earning assets.  The increase in total average earning assets is primarily the result of assets acquired in connection with the PA Capital Bank acquisition.  

 

     The Company's total interest expense for the first six months of 2002 decreased by $5.1 million, or 24.4%, when compared to the same 2001 period.  This lower interest expense was due to the 137 basis point decrease in the yield on interest bearing liabilities, to an average of 4.03% for the first six months of 2002.  The decrease in the yield on interest bearing liabilities was, however, partially offset by a $9.4 million increase in average interest bearing liabilities between the two periods.

 

     Within interest-bearing liabilities, total deposits increased $92.5 million, or 17.1%.  This, however, was partially offset by a decrease in borrowed funds of $83.1 million, or 35.1%.  The increase in total deposits is primarily the result of deposits acquired in connection with the PA Capital Bank acquisition.  The proceeds received from investment security principal and interest receipts, security sales, as well as from the growth of the deposit base were used to pay down the higher costing borrowings as well as to fund loan originations.  FHLB advances had an average cost of 6.48% in the first six months of 2002, which compares to the cost of 6.54% for the prior year six months.  However, during the first six months of 2002, these borrowings were 302 basis points greater than the average cost of deposits, which was 3.46%. Overall, the Company's total cost of funds decreased by 137 basis points to 4.03%.

 

     It is recognized that interest rate risk does exist from this use of borrowed funds to leverage the balance sheet.  The Company has asset liability policy parameters that limit the maximum amount of borrowings to 40% of total assets. For the first six months of 2002, the level of short-term borrowed funds and FHLB advances to total assets averaged 15.4%. At quarter end, the Company had borrowed funds to total assets of 14.7%, which is within the parameters set by the Board of Directors of the Company. The Company plans to continue to use cash flow from mortgage-backed securities and increasing deposits to pay down borrowings during the next several quarters.

     The table that follows provides an analysis of net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis setting forth (i) average assets, liabilities, and stockholders' equity, (ii) interest income earned on interest earning assets and interest expense paid on interest bearing liabilities, (iii) average yields earned on interest earning assets and average rates paid on interest bearing liabilities, (iv) Three Rivers Bancorp's interest rate spread (the difference between the average yield earned on interest earning assets and the average rate paid on interest bearing liabilities), and (v) Three Rivers Bancorp's net interest margin (net interest income as a percentage of average total interest earning assets). For purposes of this table, loan balances include non-accrual loans and interest income on loans includes loan fees or amortization of such fees which have been deferred, as well as, interest recorded on non-accrual loans as cash is received.  Additionally, a tax rate of approximately 35% is used to compute tax equivalent yields.

.....PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES.....  The Company's provision for loan losses for the first six months of 2002 totaled $199,000 or 0.07% of average total loans, which represents a $251000 decrease from the provision level experienced in the same period of 2001.  The decrease in provision resulted from a recovery of $251,000 during the second quarter.    Including the aforementioned recovery, the Company recognized net loan recoveries of $14,000, or 0.01%, on an annualized basis, of average loans in the first six months of 2002.  The Company applies a consistent methodology and procedural discipline to evaluate the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses at on a quarterly basis. (See further discussion in Note# 7 to the consolidated financial statements herein and the Allowance for Loan Losses section of the MD&A.)

 

.....NON-INTEREST INCOME.....  Non-interest income for the first six months of 2002 totaled $2.9 million which represents a $633,000, or  27.7%, increase when compared to the same 2001 period.  This increase resulted primarily from gains recognized from investment security sales of $514,000 during the first six months of 2002.  Additionally, wholesale cash processing fees increased $153,000 as a result of an expanded customer base in the first six months of 2002.

 

.....NON-INTEREST EXPENSE.....  Non-interest expense for the first six months of 2002 totaled $11.7 million which represents a $1.5 million, or 15.1%, increase when compared to the same 2001 period. This increase was primarily due to the following items:

 

-

a $727,000, or 14.7%, increase in salaries and employee benefits, which resulted from normal annual salary increases and an increase in full time equivalent employees.

 

-

A $161,000 increase in net occupany expense, which primarily resulted from a lease charge of $168,000 for the Pitt Times office, which was the former PA Capital premises.  This charge is $28,000 per month and was not incurred during the first six months of 2001.

 

-

A $231,000 increase in equipment expense, which resulted from additional depreciation expense incurred for fixed assets acquired in the PA Capital Bank transaction.  Additionally, the Company incurred a charge of $102,000 during the second quarter as a result of making computer hardware updates throughout various branches.

 

-

a $135,000 increase in supplies, postage and freight, which resulted primarily from additional costs associated with the annual report printing and mailing.

 

-

A $176,000 increase in miscellaneous taxes and insurance, which resulted from an increase in the accrual for the Bank's annual Pennsylvania Shares Tax.  This tax is expected to increase as a result of an increase in equity from the PA Capital acquisition.

 

-

a $220,000 increase in amortization of core deposit intangibles that resulted from the acquisition of PA Capital Bank on July 1, 2001.

 
  31  
 

-

A $539,000 increase in merger related costs, which result as the merger with Sky Financial Group, Inc. progresses (see Note #12).

 

-

the above increases, however, were partially offset by a $516,000, or 32.9%, decrease in other expense.  This decrease resulted from a decrease in the expenses incurred for services provided by Ameriserv Financial, Inc. of $243,000 as well as a decrease in advertising expenditures of $143,000.

 

.....INCOME TAX EXPENSE.....  The Company's provision for income taxes for the first six months of 2002 increased $1.3 million to $1.8 million from the first six months of 2001 as a result of a higher level of pretax earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2002.  Additionally, a refund from Ameriserv Financial, Inc. for federal income tax overpayments made during the 1998 and 1999 tax years offset the tax provision for the quarter ended March 31, 2001.  The Company's tax-free asset holdings consist primarily of municipal investment securities, bank owned life insurance, and commercial loan tax anticipation notes.  A net deferred income tax liability of $2.2 million has been provided as of June 30, 2002, on the differences between taxable income for financial and tax reporting purposes.

 

.....NET OVERHEAD BURDEN..... The Company's efficiency ratio (non-interest expense divided by total revenue) decreased to 62.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2002 compared to 70.8% for the same period of 2001.  Significant factors contributing to the lower efficiency ratio in 2002 is a higher level of net interest income and non-nterest income.  These positive factors, however, were partially offset by a higher level of non-interest expense.

 

INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY

 

Asset/liability management involves managing the risks associated with changing interest rates and the resulting impact on the Company's net interest income, net income and capital.  The management and measurement of interest rate risk at Three Rivers Bancorp is performed by using the following tools:  1) simulation modeling which analyzes the impact of interest rate changes on net interest income, net income and capital levels over specific future time periods.  The simulation modeling forecasts earnings under a variety of scenarios that incorporate changes in the absolute level of interest rates, the shape of the yield curve, prepayments and changes in the volumes and rates of various loan and deposit categories.  The simulation modeling also incorporates all off balance sheet hedging activity as well as assumptions about reinvestment and the repricing characteristics of certain assets and liabilities without stated contractual maturities;  2)static "GAP" analysis which analyzes the extent to which interest rate sensitive assets and interest rate sensitive liabilities are matched at specific points in time; and 3) market value of portfolio equity sensitivity analysis.  The overall interest rate risk position and strategies are reviewed by senior management and the Company's Board of Directors on an ongoing basis.

     When June 30, 2002, is compared to December 31, 2001, both the Company's six month and one year cumulative GAP ratios became increasingly positive.  This resulted primarily from a decrease in rate sensitive liabilities as of June 30, 2002.

 

     Management places primary emphasis on simulation modeling to manage and measure interest rate risk.  The Company's asset liability management policy seeks to limit net interest income variability over the first twelve months of the forecast period to ±7.5% and net income variability to ±15.0% based upon varied economic rate forecasts which include interest rate movements of up to 200 basis points and alterations of the shape of the yield curve.  Additionally, the Company also uses market value sensitivity measures to further evaluate the balance sheet exposure to changes in interest rates.  Market value of portfolio equity sensitivity analysis captures the dynamic aspects of long-term interest rate risk across all time periods by incorporating the net present value of expected cash flows from the Company's assets and liabilities.  The Company monitors the trends in market value of portfolio equity sensitivity analysis on a quarterly basis.

 

     The following table presents an analysis of the sensitivity inherent in the Company's net interest income, net income and market value of portfolio equity.  The interest rate scenarios in the table compare the Company's base forecast or most likely rate scenario at June 30, 2002, to scenarios which reflect ramped increases and decreases in interest rates of 200 basis points along with performance in a stagnant rate scenario with interest rates held flat at the June 30, 2002, levels. The Company's most likely rate scenario is based upon published economic consensus estimates. Each rate scenario contains unique prepayment and repricing assumptions that are applied to the Company's expected balance sheet composition that was developed under the most likely interest rate scenario.

    Interest Rate

Base     0 %   0 %   0 %
Flat     1.5     3.9     (4.6 )
200bp increase     1.1     2.8     (28.7 )
200bp decrease     (1.6 )   (3.9 )   34.6  

 

     As indicated in the table, the maximum negative variability of Three Rivers Bancorp's net interest income and net income over the next twelve month period was (1.6%) and (3.9%) respectively, under a downward rate shock forecast reflecting a 200 basis point increase in interest rates.  The variability of market value of portfolio equity was 34.6% under this interest rate scenario.  Finally, this sensitivity analysis is limited by the fact that it does not include any balance sheet repositioning actions the Company may take should severe movements in interest rates occur such as lengthening or shortening the duration of the securities portfolio or entering into additional off-balance sheet hedging transactions. These actions would likely reduce the variability of each of the factors identified in the above table in the more extreme interest rate shock forecasts.

 

LIQUIDITY

 

     Liquidity can be analyzed by utilizing the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.  Cash equivalents decreased by $10.7 million from December 31, 2001 to June 30, 2002. During the first six months of 2002 there was $5.0 million of net cash provided by operating activities.  This was more than offset by $5.5 million of net cash used by investing activities and $10.2 million of net cash used by financing activities. Within investing activities, the cash needed for investment securities purchases exceeded cash proceeds from sales by $59.0 million.  Cash advanced for new loan fundings totaled $101.8 million and exceeded the cash received from loan principal payments by $14.8 million.  Within financing activities, net deposits decreased by $2.2 million due primarily to the run-off of certificates of deposits.  Management believes that the Company maintains overall liquidity sufficient to satisfy its deposit requirements and meet its customers' credit needs.  

 

CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

     As presented in Note# 11 the Company exceeds all regulatory capital ratios at June 31, 2002.  Furthermore, the Company is considered "well capitalized" under all applicable FDIC regulations.  It is the Company's intent to maintain the FDIC "well capitalized" classification to ensure the lowest deposit insurance premium. 

 

     The Company's Board of Directors believes that dividends are a key component of total shareholder return, particularly for retail shareholders.  During the first six months of 2002, the Company declared a $0.24 per share dividend.  The fourth quarter 2001 dividend was paid during the first quarter of 2002.

STATEMENT OF MANAGEMENT RESPONSIBILITY

 

 

August 9, 2002

 

To the Stockholders and

Board of Directors of

Three Rivers Bancorp, Inc.

 

 

Management of Three Rivers Bancorp, Inc. and its subsidiaries have prepared the consolidated financial statements and other information in the Form 10-Q in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and are responsible for its accuracy.

 

In meeting its responsibilities, management relies on internal accounting and related control and monitoring systems, which include selection and training of qualified personnel, establishment and communication of accounting and administrative policies and procedures, appropriate segregation of responsibilities, and programs of internal audit.  These systems are designed to provide reasonable assurance that financial records are reliable for preparing financial statements and maintaining accountability for assets, and that assets are safeguarded against unauthorized use or disposition.  Such assurance cannot be absolute because of inherent limitations in any internal control system.

 

Management also recognizes its responsibility to foster a climate in which Company affairs are conducted with the highest ethical standards.  The Company's Code of Conduct, furnished to each employee and director, addresses the importance of open internal communications, potential conflicts of interest, compliance with applicable laws, including those related to financial disclosure, the confidentiality of propriety information, and other items.  There is an ongoing program to assess compliance with these policies.

 

The Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors consists solely of outside directors.  The Audit Committee meets periodically with management and the independent accountants to discuss audit, financial reporting, and related matters.  The Company's external and internal auditors have direct access to the Audit Committee.
