ITEM 3: LEGAL PROCEEDINGSOn July 1, 2002, the Bank was served with a civil complaint that was filed in the Court of Common Pleas of Lackawanna County, Pennsylvania, on June 28, 2002. Scaccia Construction Company, the plaintiff, based upon multiple causes of action, demands approximately $250,000 in connection with certain environmental remediation activities. The activities were purportedly performed prior to the opening of the Bank’s new Eynon branch. On July 22, 2002, the Bank filed preliminary objections to the complaint. The preliminary objections were decided on November 26, 2002, and the Bank filed its answer and new matter raising various legal defenses. Formal discovery has commenced and depositions are scheduled through May 2003. The Bank intends to vigorously defend this action.
The nature of the Company’s business generates some litigation involving matters arising in the ordinary course of business. However, in the opinion of the Company after consulting with legal counsel, no other legal proceedings are pending, which, if determined adversely to the Company or the Bank, would have a material effect the Company’s undivided profits or financial condition. No other legal proceedings are pending other than ordinary routine litigation incident to the business of the Company and the Bank. In addition, to management’s knowledge, no governmental authorities have initiated or contemplated any material legal actions against the Company or the Bank.

Besides historical information, this Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are subject to uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Important factors that might cause differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in the section entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”. We caution readers not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements reflect management’s analysis only as of December 31, 2002. The Company undertakes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements to reflect circumstances that arise after December 31, 2002. Readers should carefully review the risk factors described in other documents the Company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Such documents include Reports on Form 10-Q and current Reports on Form 8-K.
Forward-looking statements by their nature are subject to assumptions, risks and uncertainties. For a variety of reasons, actual results could differ materially from those contained or implied by the forward-looking statements:
The presentation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect many of the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
A material estimate that is particularly susceptible to significant change relates to the determination of the allowance for loan losses. Management believes that the allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2002 is adequate and reasonable. Given the very subjective nature of identifying and valuing loan losses, it is likely that well-informed individuals could make different assumptions, and could, therefore calculate a materially different allowance value. While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, changes in economic conditions may necessitate revisions in future years. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company’s allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require the Company to recognize adjustments to the allowance based on their judgments of information available to them at the time of their examination.
| 10-K | 10th Page of 99 | TOC | 1st | Previous | Next | ↓Bottom | Just 10th |
|---|
Another material estimate is the calculation of fair values of the Company’s investment securities. The Company receives estimated fair values of investment securities from an independent valuation service. In developing these fair values, the valuation service uses estimates of cash flows, based on historical performance of similar instruments in similar interest rate environments. Based on experience, management is aware that estimated fair values of investment securities tend to vary among valuation services. Accordingly, when selling investment securities, management typically obtains price quotes from more than one source. As described in Notes 1 and 3 of the consolidated financial statements, the large majority of the Company’s investment securities are classified as available-for-sale. Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value on the consolidated balance sheet, with unrealized gains and losses, net of income tax reported separately within shareholders’ equity through accumulated and other comprehensive income.
The fair value of residential mortgage loans classified as available-for-sale is obtained from the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae). The fair value of SBA loans classified as available-for-sale is obtained from an outside pricing source. The market to which the Bank sells mortgage and other loans is restricted and price quotes from other sources are not typically obtained. Further discussion on the accounting treatment of available-for-sale loans is in the section entitled “Loans-available-for sale”, contained within Management’s Discussion and Analysis.
All significant accounting policies are contained in Note 1 “Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies”, contained within the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, and incorporated herein by reference.
The following discussion and analysis presents the significant changes in the results of operations and financial condition of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, the Bank. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in this report.

Due to the prevailing economic conditions in 2002, many investors moved monies from mutual funds into insured financial institutions. The Bank experienced growth in non-interest bearing deposits and short term interest-bearing accounts. As interest rates declined, these liquid accounts were preferred over fixed rate certificates of deposit (CDs). The liquidity aspect of these accounts allows depositors to transfer funds into fixed term CDs, when interest rates begin to rise.
Among the reasons cited by depositors as to why they selected the Bank are:
Part of the non-interest bearing deposits (DDA) growth is attributed to recent branch expansion. For example, DDA balances at the new Kingston and Peckville offices had a combined $3,900,000 at December 31, 2002, compared to $2,452,000 at December 31, 2001. DDA balances at the Eynon office, which opened in July 2002, were $82,000 at December 31, 2002.
Non-personal and Public Fund DDA balances grew $2,423,000 or 9.15% during 2002. Increased commercial lending relationships contributed to the growth in commercial deposits, as also did the successful marketing of commercial deposit products.
Commercial products include:
During 2002, the Bank instituted several programs, including the following to attract demand deposit accounts.
The Fidelity Check Card Campaign was designed to issue check cards to new and existing depositors. With the ease of purchasing goods and services with check cards, the Bank provides depositors an incentive to increase balances carried in their accounts. During the campaign, maintenance charges were waived for one year for any card issued.
Fidelity’s All-American Checking Campaign was initiated to attract personal and small business checking accounts. Incentives included no minimum balance requirements and the first order of 50 checks free.
The Visa Business Check Card Campaign targeted new business check cards and demand deposit accounts.
The Bank also offered discounts on home equity loan fees and first year free safe deposit box rentals for customers who had their payments directly charged to a demand deposit account.

Commercial borrowers were encouraged to have their operating and payroll accounts at the Bank.
Although personal CDs increased $14,913,000 during 2002, an overall slight decline in interest-bearing deposits was caused by a large reduction in Public Fund CDs towards year end and withdrawals of non-personal deposits in the second half of 2002.
While much of the decline in Public Fund CDs was necessitated by cash requirements of the Public entities, approximately $8,481,000 was transferred into money market accounts for liquidity purposes. The transfer of Public funds into money market accounts comprises 81.95% of the growth in this product. The Bank anticipates that it will recapture much of the overall decrease in Public Fund deposits during 2003.
The maturity distribution of CDs $100,000 or more at December 31, 2002 is as follows:
3 Months 3 - 6 6 - 12 Over
or less Months Months 12 months Total
------- ------ ------ --------- -----
$24,462,673 $8,861,488 $45,995,624 $50,166,713 $129,486,498
The over 12 months maturity distribution of CDs represents 12.12% of total deposits at December 31, 2002. The Bank believes this category provides a stable source of funds for future requirements.
Accrued expenses and other liabilities:Rate reductions in interest-bearing deposits and short-term borrowings caused accrued interest payable to decrease from $2,757,000 at December 31, 2001, to $1,707,000 at December 31, 2002.
A $746,000 non-interest bearing liability for the pending settlement of investment securities purchased was recorded at December 31, 2002. The Bank did not have any pending investment purchases at December 31, 2001.
Short-term borrowings:Interest rate reductions and customer liquidity needs caused repurchase agreements, (Repos) to decrease from $54,258,000 at December 31, 2001, to $47,232,000 at December 31, 2002. Repos are non-insured interest-bearing liabilities that have a security interest in qualified pledged investment securities of the Bank. Repos offered are either a fixed term or a sweep product of the Bank.
Sweep accounts comprise approximately 64% of Repos. A sweep account is designed to insure that an attached DDA is adequately funded and then excess DDA funds are transferred into an interest-bearing overnight Repo, on a daily basis. The sweep will also transfer funds back to the DDA as is necessary, to cover checks presented for payment. The nature of the sweep makes the account more volatile than a fixed term Repo.

Funding requirements of the Bank necessitated $2,850,000 overnight borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh, (FHLB), at December 31, 2002. There were no borrowings at December 31, 2001.
Repos and overnight borrowings are included with short-term borrowings on the balance sheet (see Note 7 “Short-term Borrowings”, contained within the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).
Long-term debt:Long-term debt consists of borrowings from the FHLB. The weighted average rate on funds borrowed at December 31, 2002, was 5.59%. The weighted-average rate is 76 basis points below the tax-equivalent yield of 6.35% on average earning assets for the year ending December 31, 2002. Rates on the advances are adjustable quarterly, should market rates increase. However, year-end rates on similar FHLB advances are 416 basis points below the rates being paid by the Bank. It is unlikely that during 2003 FHLB borrowing rates will increase above the rates currently being quoted by the FHLB. Should this occur, the Bank has the option, at that time, to repay or renegotiate the advances.
At December 31, 2002, the Bank had the ability to borrow an additional $62,375,000 at the FHLB. The FHLB has short, medium and long-term funding products available to the Bank. Most lines of credit extended to banks by other lenders are short-term.
Balance Sheet, Assets:Total assets of the Company increased $8,959,000 or 1.575% during 2002. The increase is the result of growth in deposits, as previously discussed, and the retention of profits.
Investments:Discounting $3,829,000 appreciation in the market value of available-for-sale, (AFS) investments, total investments decreased $8,254,000, during 2002.
With the fall in market rates, United States Government Agency, state and municipal securities of $90,600,000 were called during 2002. No losses were incurred on any of the called bonds.
The market environment also caused many borrowers to prepay or refinance home mortgages. In terms of investments, this contributed to a major reduction in mortgage-backed securities(MBS). MBS are pools of residential mortgages. The majority of MBS owned by the Bank are guaranteed by United States Governmental Agencies. Prepayments on MBS were $18,229,000 in 2002, compared to $2,820,000 in 2001.
Market conditions necessitated a restructuring of the investment portfolio to protect earnings which were being adversely impacted by bond calls and adjustable rate MBS. To accomplish the restructuring, the Bank sold AFS investments having a net book value of $37,193,000. There were no sales of investments categorized as held-to–maturity in 2002.
| 10-K | 16th Page of 99 | TOC | 1st | Previous | Next | ↓Bottom | Just 16th |
|---|
Proceeds from the called bonds and MBS prepayments were reinvested primarily in fixed rate MBS. The MBS purchased provide a monthly cash flow which can be reinvested into potentially higher yielding assets. This will become beneficial when market rates begin to increase. The particular bonds purchased had yields in excess of comparable Treasury securities and the current rates being paid on federal funds sold.
After careful consideration of the characteristics of the individual securities and their potential reaction to market changes, $9,058,000, purchased bonds were classified as held-to-maturity and $128,932,000, were classified as AFS.
Classifying bonds as held-to-maturity protects the balance sheet from downward market trends that AFS securities are exposed to. The decision to classify securities as AFS gives the Bank greater flexibility in the management of the investment portfolio and overall liquidity management.
The Bank actively monitors depreciation in the bond portfolio. When an individual bond, classified AFS, starts to depreciate, the Bank will determine if it is advisable to sell the security and reinvest the proceeds at a higher yield. Such considerations are based on current market conditions and liquidity needs. Even though bonds in the Bank’s portfolio may depreciate in market value, the principal and interest of the United States Government Agency bonds, United States Government Agency issued MBS and municipal investments is guaranteed by the issuer.

There were no trading securities during 2002.
Loans:Loans, net of unearned income, increased $444,000 or 0.12% from $357,718,000 at December 31, 2001, to $358,162,000 at December 31, 2002. Gross loans represent 61.97% of total assets at December 31, 2002.
Growth in the portfolio was slowed by the economic downturn both nationally and locally. As lending rates fell, prepayments on existing loans increased. Loans refinanced at lower rates increased the Bank’s exposure to interest-rate risk from potential market upturns. Many new and refinanced loans were classified as AFS, with the intention of immediate sale.
For a further discussion on these issues, see the MD&A sections entitled, “Loans available-for-sale” and “Liquidity Management and Interest Rate Sensitivity”. Additional discussion is in Note 1 “Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – Loans Held for Sale”, contained within the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, and incorporated herein by reference.
Being committed to the market area, the Bank seeks quality loans, both commercial and consumer. However, the results of 2001 caused the Bank to review lending policies and collection efforts. Additional personnel, including a new experienced Chief Credit Officer, were hired late in 2001, to address these concerns. As a result of these efforts, delinquencies and net charge-offs were reduced and the overall quality of the portfolio improved during 2002.
For a further discussion of delinquencies and net charge-offs, see the MD&A section entitled “Provision for Loan Losses”. Further discussion is in Note 1 “Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – Allowance for Loan Losses” and Note 4 “Loans and Leases” contained within the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, and incorporated herein by reference.
It is anticipated that the volume of prepayments and refinance requests will slow, as rates become stable or increase. Furthermore, new loans will be structured to better withstand market fluctuations and improved collection efforts should curtail serious delinquencies.

The commitment of the Bank to our local communities remains strong and the Bank is sufficiently capitalized and structured to deal with these challenges.
Commercial loans increased $23,930,000 or 13.37% during 2002. This increase in commercial loans was primarily due to increased lending within the small business community.
The Bank continues to originate loans using the Small Business Administration (SBA) guaranteed loan program. In return for the Bank funding a loan, which met the criteria of the program, the SBA guarantees a material portion of the principal balance to the Bank, should the borrower default.
Tax-free industrial development loans made to or backed by local municipalities decreased to $8,401,000 at December 31, 2002. Large payoffs at the end of the year contributed to the decline. However, the 2002 year- to-date outstanding average balance of tax-free industrial development loans was $14,882,000 compared to $11,186,000 during 2001.
The Bank participates in the Pennsylvania Capital Access Program (PENNCAP). PENNCAP is a small business lending program whereby the State allocates a reserve fund to be used in the event the Bank were to experience a loss on a loan registered in the program. At December 31, 2002, $4,974,000 commercial loans were registered in this program.
The Bank serves the local market with real estate loans. Real estate and construction loan totals of $114,163,000 were 29.46% of gross loans and AFS loans at December 31, 2002.
Included with real estate loans are home equity lines of credit. The outstanding balance on the credit lines increased $1,384,000 or 23.33% from $5,931,000 at December 31, 2001, to $7,315,000 at December 31, 2002.
The Bank determined that it was prudent to classify a majority of new or refinanced mortgages as AFS during the low interest rate environment experienced during 2002. Thus, providing the ability to maintain interest rate risk sensitivity by selling these mortgages, when mortgage rates begin to rise and the means to produce liquidity, as needed, to fund operations and loan demand. The delay in actively selling these loans caused the considerable net growth in the loans AFS portfolio.
Consumer loans and direct-financing leases decreased $14,181,000 or 18.24% during 2002. A combination of prepayments, the reclassification of credit card receivables to loans available for sale, tightened credit underwriting standards on indirect auto loans and the decision to not aggressively seek leases brought about this decline.

Residential mortgages, guaranteed portion of Small Business Administration loans and student loans are generally classified as available-for-sale at origination. Should market rates increase, fixed rate loans and loans not immediately repricable would no longer produce yields consistent with the current market. In a declining rate environment, the rates on adjustable rate loans would decrease and interest income would be negatively affected. To protect the Bank from interest-rate risk, loans meeting these conditions may be classified as saleable. Certain consideration is also given to current liquidity needs.
Fees or costs associated with loan originations are capitalized and charged or credited to loan income over the term of the loan. The measures apply to both available-for-sale and held-to- maturity loans.
Saleable loans are carried on the balance sheet at the lower of cost or fair value. If the fair value falls below cost, the difference is charged to current earnings. Appreciation in the portfolio is credited to current earnings, only to the extent of previous write-downs below cost.
The Bank increased loans available-for-sale by $12,565,000 or 77.80% to $28,715,000 at December 31, 2002 from concern of potential interest-rate risk due to the falling rate environment experienced in 2002.
At December 31, 2002, AFS loans include $2,872,000 of credit card receivables. During the fourth quarter of 2002, the Company entered into a credit card receivable sale agreement. The decision was based upon the system in place which was not adequate to properly service the clientele, there was a high level of overhead related to credit card activities, a lack of consistent growth in the portfolio and a high loss experience on non-performing credit cards.
Sale of the portfolio will be concluded during the first quarter of 2003. The purchaser is an experienced handler of credit card lines and there will be no disruption of service. The cards will be marketed with the Bank logo.
Full recourse will be required for two years on customers with a defined below average credit score. The Company will estimate and accrue a recourse liability from sale proceeds to cover the two year full recourse provision, based on the Company’s past loss experience.
The Company expects to recognize a gain on the sale of the credit card receivables in 2003. The recourse liability will be periodically evaluated and increased, if necessary, through a charge to earnings. After the two year recourse period is completed, the remaining recourse liability, if any, will be recognized in earnings.

As detailed in the “Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows” contained herein, proceeds from the sale of loans in 2002 were $26,413,000. The sales were primarily residential mortgages.
Servicing rights on sold loans were retained by the Bank. Servicing rights are retained so the borrower can still deal directly with the Bank. The loans were sold to provide the Bank with liquidity necessary to meet loan demand and to mitigate potential interest-rate risk from potential market rate increases. At December 31, 2002, the outstanding balance of sold residential mortgage loans in which the Bank retained servicing rights was $56,986,000.
Bank premises and equipment, net:Additions to premises and equipment were $2,542,000 before depreciation of $1,068,000 in 2002.
A new core processing system was installed during the fourth quarter of 2002. Additions for the system, including hardware, software, licensing and installation were $1,232,000. The projected cost of the system was $1,300,000. Capitalized expenditures will be depreciated over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method.
Additions for the new branch at Eynon were $746,000 for leasehold improvements and $133,000 for furniture and fixtures. Capital expenditures for Eynon, excluding equipment, were originally projected at $250,000. Capitalized expenditures will be depreciated over their estimated useful lives.
During 2002, the Bank determined that a new branch would not be established at the property owned in Clarks Green, Pennsylvania and the property was sold. The property had a net book value of $217,000, at the time of sale.
Other equipment having a net book value of $36,000, was disposed of in 2002. The majority of the equipment was made obsolete by the new core processing system.
A net loss of $44,000 was incurred from the disposition of the property and equipment.
Foreclosed assets held for sale:Real estate acquired through foreclosure decreased $203,000 due to the net disposal of properties. Repossessed vehicles had a net decrease of $48,000 from the sale of the vehicles at auction.
The year 2001:Personal DDA balances increased $3,051,000, or 15.82%, from $19,283,000 at December 31, 2000, to $22,334,000 at December 31, 2001. DDA balances at the Kingston office, opened 2001, were $273,000 and deposits from the Peckville branch, which opened in 2000, increased $217,000 during 2001,

Non-personal and Public Fund DDA balances grew $4,302,000 or 19.40% in 2001.
Official Bank checks issued and outstanding decreased $1,237,000 in 2001.
As a net result of these changes non-interest bearing deposits grew $6,116,000 or 12.96% from $47,186,000 at December 31, 2000, to $53,302,000 at December 31, 2001. The increase in non interest-bearing deposits represents 9.06% of the growth in total deposits during 2001.
Interest-bearing deposits increased $62,352,000 or 21.34% from $292,125,000 at December 31, 2000, to $354,477,000 at December 31, 2001.
Savings and club accounts collectively increased $2,029,000 in 2001.
The decline in market rates contributed to a $2,191,000 decrease in NOW accounts and a $7,980,000 decline in money market deposits in 2001 Some of the deposits were placed into CDs, as depositors favored a guaranteed rate over liquidity.
CDs increased $70,494,000 or 34.20%. Personal CDs grew $32,601,000, non-personal CDs grew $19,739,000 and public fund CDs increased $18,154,000.
Total deposits increased $68,469,000 or 20.18% from $339,310,000 at December 31, 2000, to $407,779,000 at December 31, 2001.
Short-term Borrowings:Repos increased $18,271,000 or 50.77% from $35,987,000 at December 31, 2001, to $54,258,000 at December 31, 2001. Sweep accounts comprise approximately 74% of Repos.
With the increases in both deposits and Repos, $10,950,000 borrowed from the FHLB was paid off.
Balance sheet Assets:Total assets of the Company increased $77,983,000 or 15.87% during 2001. The increase is the result of growth in the liability section, as previously discussed and the retention of profits.
Cash and Due from Banks:During the final week of 2001, daily cash processing was transferred from FHLB, Pittsburgh to the Federal Reserve Bank Philadelphia, (Fed). Cash letters consist of cashed or deposited checks that are not drawn on the Bank and are sent for collection. The Fed was selected based on lower handling costs and improved availability of fund collection. Estimated savings from the transfer will approximate $30,000 annually.

Total investments had an increase during 2001 of $34,218,000, net of the change in the market value of AFS investments.
United States Government Agency bonds totaling $89,295,000 and municipal securities of $3,820,000 were called due to the fall in market rates. Principal payments on MBS, also affected by the change in market rates, increased $1,613,000.
Sales of AFS United States Government bonds and AFS municipal securities totaled $14,004,000 in 2001. Sales were necessitated by the call provisions attached to all the bonds sold.
To replace the investments called, prepaid or sold, the Bank purchased $137,904,000 United States Government Agency bonds, $7,107,000 MBS and $1,000,000 preferred term securities. After careful analysis of the characteristics of the individual securities, $18,994,000 United States Agency bonds were classified as held-to maturity. The remaining bonds were classified as AFS.
Preferred term securities are pooled borrowings of FDIC insured financial institutions located within the United States. The institutions are required to have a five-year satisfactory operating history and tier 1 capital ratios greater than ten percent. Preferred term securities a provide diversification within the portfolio. Rates paid on the securities are approximately 200 basis points above Fed Fund rates and are adjustable. The securities have five-year call protection.
Investments constituted 27.06% of total assets at December 31, 2001. Held-to maturity securities were $21,640,000 and AFS investments were $132,334,000.

Capital was further increased in 2002 through the Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRIP). Shareholders reinvested $479,000 in dividends to purchase additional shares of stock.
Capital was affected by changes in market rates. The Bank’s investment strategy reacting to market changes resulted in a $2,527,000 improvement, net of deferred taxes, in the fair value of investments classified as available-for-sale. At December 31, 2001, the Bank reported a net unrealized loss on AFS securities of $1,262,000. At December 31, 2002, a net unrealized gain of $1,265,000 was reported.
During the second quarter of 2002, 12,960 shares of common stock became available on the open market. The Company purchased the stock for $479,640 with the intention to reissue the stock under the dividend reinvestment plan. After the March 10, 2003 dividend payment date, 12,432 shares of treasury stock were reissued under the dividend reinvestment plan.
Fluctuations in the capital markets cause frequent changes in the fair value of available-for-sale securities. A future decline in value should not indicate a material weakness in the capital position of the Company. The Company monitors market conditions closely and is prepared to take remedial action when appropriate.
Capital is evaluated in relation to total assets and the risk associated with those assets. With greater capital resources, a bank is more likely to be able to meet its cash obligations and absorb unforeseen losses. Federal regulatory definitions of capital adequacy take the form of minimum ratios. The Bank exceeds all minimum regulatory capital requirements (see Note 15 “Regulatory Matters”, contained within the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, and incorporated herein by reference).

Earning assets do not include loans placed on non-accrual.
Liquidity Management and Interest Rate Sensitivity:Liquidity management is to ensure that adequate funds will be available to meet anticipated and unanticipated deposit withdrawals, debt servicing payments, investment commitments, commercial and consumer loan demand and ongoing operating expenses. Funding sources include principal repayments on loans and investments, sales of assets, growth in core deposits, short- and long-term borrowings and repurchase agreements. Regular loan payments are a dependable source of funds, while the sale of loans and investment securities, deposit flows, and loan prepayments are significantly influenced by general economic conditions and level of interest rates.
At December 31, 2002, the Company maintained $26.2 million in cash and cash equivalents, which includes Federal funds sold in the form of cash and due from banks (after reserve requirements). In addition, the Company had $28.7 million of loans held for resale and $137.8 million in AFS securities. This combined total of $192.7 million represented 33.4% of total assets at December 31, 2002. The Company believes that its liquidity is adequate.
The Company considers its primary source of liquidity to be its core deposit base. This funding source has grown steadily over the years and consists of deposits from customers throughout the branch network. The Company will continue to promote the acquisition of deposits through its branch offices. At December 31, 2002, approximately 71.6% of the Company’s assets were funded by deposits acquired within its market area. An additional 7.8% of the assets were funded by the Company’s equity. These two components provide a substantial and stable source of funds.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $7.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2002, as compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $6.8 million for the comparable period in 2001. Net cash used in investing activities decreased $54.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2002, from $63.9 million to $9.2 million, which was primarily attributable to investment securities transactions. Net cash provided by financing activities decreased $71.6 million from 2001. A net decrease in the annual growth of interest-bearing deposits from 2001 to 2002 was the major component impacting funds provided by financing activities.
At December 31, 2002, the Bank had approximately $68.2 million in unused sources of borrowed funds available to meet liquidity requirements as follows:

The borrowing capacity at the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia is the discounted market value of investment securities pledged as collateral at the date of borrowing.
Interest rate risk management:Interest rate risk management involves managing the extent to which interest-sensitive assets and interest-sensitive liabilities are matched. Interest rate sensitivity is the relationship between market interest rates and earnings volatility due to the repricing characteristics of assets and liabilities. The Company’s net interest income is affected by changes in the level of market interest rates. In order to maintain consistent earnings performance, the Company seeks to manage, to the extent possible, the repricing characteristics of its assets and liabilities.
Asset/Liability Management. One major objective of the Company when managing the rate sensitivity of its assets and liabilities is to stabilize net interest income. The management of and authority to assume interest rate risk is the responsibility of the Company’s Asset/Liability Committee (ALCO), which is comprised of senior management and Board members. ALCO meets quarterly to monitor the ratio of interest sensitive assets to interest sensitive liabilities. The process to review interest rate risk management is a regular part of management of the Company. Consistent policies and practices of measuring and reporting interest rate risk exposure, particularly regarding the treatment of non-contractual assets and liabilities, are in effect. In addition, there is an annual process to review the interest rate risk policy with the Board of Directors which includes limits on the impact to earnings from shifts in interest rates.
Interest Rate Risk Measurement. Interest rate risk is monitored through the use of three complementary measures: static gap analysis, earnings at risk simulation and economic value at risk simulation. While each of the interest rate risk measurements has limitations, taken together they represent a reasonably comprehensive view of the magnitude of interest rate risk in the Company and the distribution of risk along the yield curve, the level of risk through time, and the amount of exposure to changes in certain interest rate relationships.
Repricing Gap. The ratio between assets and liabilities repricing in specific time intervals is referred to as an interest rate sensitivity gap. Interest rate sensitivity gaps can be managed to take advantage of the slope of the yield curve as well as forecasted changes in the level of interest rate changes.
To manage this interest rate sensitivity gap position, an asset/liability model called cumulative gap analysis is used to monitor the difference in the volume of the Company’s interest sensitive assets and liabilities that mature or reprice within given periods. A positive gap (asset sensitive) indicates that more assets reprice during a given period compared to liabilities, while a negative gap (liability sensitive) has the opposite effect. The Company employs computerized net interest income simulation modeling to assist in quantifying interest rate risk exposure. This process measures and quantifies the impact on net interest income through varying interest rate changes and balance sheet compositions. The use of this model assists the ALCO to gauge the effects of the interest rate changes on interest sensitive assets and liabilities in order to determine what impact these rate changes will have upon the net interest spread.

At December 31, 2002, the Bank maintained a one year cumulative gap of positive $36.0 million or 6.23% of total assets. The effect of this gap position provided a positive mismatch of assets and liabilities which can expose the Bank to interest rate risk during a period of decreasing interest rates. Conversely, in a rising interest rate environment, net income could be positively affected because more assets than liabilities will reprice during a given period.

(1) Includes net unrealized gains/losses on available-for-sale securities.
(2) Investments and loans are included in the earlier of the period in which
interest rates were next scheduled to adjust or the period in which they
are due. In addition, loans were included in the periods in which they are
scheduled to be repaid based on scheduled amortization. For amortizing
loans and mortgage-backed securities, annual prepayment rates are assumed
reflecting historical experience as well as management's knowledge and
experience of its loan products.
(3) The Bank's demand and savings accounts were generally subject to immediate
withdrawal. However, management considers a certain amount of such accounts
to be core accounts having significantly longer effective maturities based
on the retention experiences of such deposits in changing interest rate
environments. The effective maturities presented are the recommended
maturity distribution limits for non-maturing deposits based on historical
deposit studies.
Certain shortcomings are inherent in the method of analysis presented in the above table. Although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or periods of repricing, they may react in different degrees to changes in market interest rates. The interest rates on certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in market interest rates, while interest rates on other types of assets and liabilities may lag behind changes in market interest rates. Certain assets, such as adjustable-rate mortgages, have features which restrict changes in interest rates on a short-term basis and over the life of the asset. In the event of a change in interest rates, prepayment and early withdrawal levels may deviate significantly from those assumed in calculating the table. The ability of many borrowers to service their adjustable-rate debt may decrease in the event of an interest rate increase.

Earnings at Risk and Economic Value at Risk Simulations. The Company recognizes that more sophisticated tools exist for measuring the interest rate risk in the balance sheet beyond static repricing gap analysis. Although it will continue to measure its repricing gap position, the Company utilizes additional modeling for identifying and measuring the interest rate risk in the overall balance sheet. The ALCO is responsible for focusing on “earnings at risk” and “economic value at risk”, and how both relate to the risk-based capital position when analyzing the interest rate risk.
Earnings at Risk. Earnings at risk simulation measures the change in net interest income and net income should interest rates rise and fall. The simulation recognizes that not all assets and liabilities reprice one for one with market rates (e.g., savings rate). The ALCO looks at “earnings at risk” to determine income changes from a base case scenario under an increase and decrease of 200 basis points in interest rates simulation model.
Economic Value at Risk. Earnings at risk simulation measures the short-term risk in the balance sheet. Economic value (or portfolio equity) at risk measures the long-term risk by finding the net present value of the future cash flows from the Company’s existing assets and liabilities. The ALCO examines this ratio quarterly utilizing an increase and decrease of 200 basis points in interest rates simulation model. The ALCO recognizes that, in some instances, this ratio may contradict the “earnings at risk” ratio.
The following table illustrates the simulated impact of 200 basis points upward or downward movement in interest rates on net interest income, net income, and the change in economic value (portfolio equity). This analysis assumed that interest-earning asset and interest-bearing liability levels at December 31, 2002 remained constant. The impact of the rate movements was developed by simulating the effect of rates changing over a twelve-month period from the December 31, 2002 levels.

Net Interest Income:The Federal Reserve Bank lowered the discount rate once in 2002. The discount rate is the rate at which the Federal Reserve Bank lends overnight funds to banks. In response to these actions, national prime dropped 50 basis points from 4.75% to 4.25%.
There is a 223 basis point differential between the weighted average of national prime in 2002 and 2001. The weighted average of national prime in 2002 and 2001 was 4.67% and 6.90%, respectively. This difference reflects on the yield on earning assets and the cost of funds when comparing both years.
The actions of the Federal Reserve Bank caused decreases in the rates charged on loans that were subject to repricing and on the rates offered on new loans in 2002. Approximately 20% of the entire loan portfolio was subject to immediate repricing at December 31, 2002. Rates charged on new loans paralleled the reductions in prime. Sales of older loans contributed to the decline in the overall yield on loans.

Market reaction to the drop in prime significantly increased the amount of bonds called during 2002. To properly collateralize public fund deposits and Repos, the Bank had to replace the called bonds with bonds producing a lower yield.
Excess funds from asset turnover and the increase of liabilities were sold daily. The rates on these “Fed funds sold” were at historic lows.
Due to the combination of these factors, the tax equivalent yield on earning assets decreased 90 basis points.
Interest expense was also affected by the decline in market rates. There were deposit rate promotions at the new Eynon branch to develop deposit growth. However, these promotions had a minimal effect on the overall reduction of interest expense.
The effect of market changes caused a 100 basis point decrease in the cost of funds throughout 2002.
With the 10 basis point increase in the tax-equivalent net interest spread and volume increases in loans and investments, net interest income rose $1,159,000 or 7.46% during 2002.
The year 2001 as compared to 2000During 2001, the Federal Reserve Bank reduced the discount rate eleven times. These actions caused national prime to decrease from 9.50% to 4.75%. The weighted average rate of national prime decreased 234 basis points.
The actions of the Federal Reserve Bank caused decreases in the rates charged on loans that were subject to repricing and on the rates offered on new loans in 2001. Approximately 23% of the entire loan portfolio was subject to immediate repricing at December 31, 2001.
Bonds that were called due to market rate decreases were replaced with lower yielding investments.
As a result of the change in market rates, the tax equivalent yield on earning assets decreased 58 basis points.
Interest rates paid on liabilities were reduced due to the decline in market rates. This action and a $10,950,000 reduction in short term-borrowings produced a 72 basis point decrease in the cost of funds.
With the 14 basis point improvement in tax-equivalent net interest spread and volume increases in investments and loans, net interest income rose $1,909,000 or 14.02% during 2001. A comparison of average earnings assets and the net tax equivalent yields for 2002, 2001 and 2000, in thousands, is as follows:

Interest income was adjusted to a tax-equivalent basis to recognize the income from tax-exempt assets as if the interest was taxable. This treatment allows a uniform comparison to be made between yields on assets. The calculations were computed on a fully tax-equivalent basis using the corporate federal tax rate of 34%.

Non-accrual loans and any related interest recorded have been included in computing the average rate earned on the loan portfolio. Installment loans and direct financing leases are presented net of unearned interest. All deposits are in domestic bank offices. The average balances are based on amortized cost and do not reflect unrealized gains or losses.
Net yield on earning assets represents the difference between interest income and interest expense divided by total average earning assets.
The following table reflects the change in net interest income attributable to fluctuations in volume and rate:

Tax- exempt income was not converted to a tax-equivalent basis on the rate volume analysis.
Provision for Loan Losses:The provision is an expense charged against earnings for actual or potential losses from uncollectible loans and leases. Through the provision, the allowance for loan loss is funded. Loans determined to be uncollectible are charged-off against the allowance.
The Bank has established a Special Asset Committee which meets monthly to review known and potential problem loans and leases. The committee is comprised of senior management, loan officers, credit administration and collection personnel. The committee reports quarterly to the Credit Administration Committee of the Board of Directors.
Management continuously reviews the risks inherent in the loan and lease portfolios. Specific factors used to evaluate the adequacy of the loan loss

provision during this formal process include:
The Bank does not have significant concentrations of loans in specific industries or outside the Northeastern Pennsylvania geographic area. For the period ended December 31, 2002, adjustments were made to the historical loan loss experience for both the level and trends in delinquent loans. Adjustments were also made based on local and national economic trends.

As evidenced in the table above, there has been no significant difference between the additions charged to operations and actual net charge-off results over the last five years.
The allowance for loan losses can generally absorb losses throughout the loan and lease portfolios. However, in some instances an allocation is made for specific loans or groups of loans.
As detailed in the table above, the allowance for loan loss expressed as a percent of net charge-offs has been declining for the past two years due to the increase in the amount of loans being charged off.
The slowing economy has impacted the loan portfolio the past three years. That trend is reflected in the increase in charged-off loans over the three year period, especially commercial and consumer.
Allocation of the allowance among major categories of loans for the past five years is summarized below. This table should not be interpreted as an indication that charge-offs in future periods will occur in these amounts or proportions, or that the allocation indicates future charge-off trends.

Consumer loans include credit cards receivables.
The December 31, 2001 allocation for commercial loans was $2,197,365 compared to actual 2002 net commercial loan charge-offs of $569,635. The positive variance was the result of collection efforts in 2002. The 2002 commercial loan allocation is based upon a specific allocation of $780,479 and historical and qualitative adjustments of $1,418,304.

The December 31, 2001 allocation for all other categories of loans was adequate compared to the actual net charge-offs in 2002. Since the Bank is discontinuing direct financing leases, the allocation is also adequate.
Over the last five years, management has analyzed and relied on similar factors in determining the amount of loan loss provision relative to the adequacy of the allowance for loan loss.
The methodology used by the bank to analyze the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is as follows (loans and leases are collectively referred to as loans):
Allocation of the allowance for loan losses for different categories of loans is based on the methodology used by the Bank, as explained above. The changes in the allocations from year to years are based upon year end reviews of the loan and lease portfolios.

Non-performing loans to net loans 1.72% 2.79% 1.10% 1.37% 1.66%
Gross interest income that would have been recorded in 2002, if non-accrual loans were current, was $612,909. There was no recognition of interest income on non-accrual loans during 2002.
Payments received on non-accrual loans are recognized on a cash basis. Payments are first applied against the outstanding principal balance until the balance is satisfied. Subsequent payments are then recorded as interest income and finally late charges.
In the internal review of loans for both delinquency and collateral sufficiency, management concluded that there were an above average number of loans that lacked the ability to repay in accordance with contractual terms. The decision to place loans or leases on a non-accrual basis is made on an individual basis after considering factors pertaining to the loan.
In addition, it was determined throughout the year there were other loans that did not have the ability to make any repayment. Accordingly, management found it necessary to charge-off $1,949,000 of these loans and to increase the allowance for loan loss for certain other loans. The charge-offs were made after collateral was repossessed, foreclosed upon or notice was forwarded to governmental guarantors. The allowance for loan loss was increased through the provision for loan loss. The majority of non-performing loans and loans past due 90 days or more for the period is attributed to small commercial business loans, indirect auto lending and real estate loans in the process of foreclosure.
Several of the commercial loans are guaranteed by governmental agencies and the Bank's loss exposure is reduced accordingly.
Consumer loan payments have improved during 2002, due to collection efforts.
| 10-K | 38th Page of 99 | TOC | 1st | Previous | Next | ↓Bottom | Just 38th |

Reflecting the improvement, the percentage of non-performing loans to net loans has decreased from 2.79% at December 31, 2001, to 1.72% at December 31, 2002.
A specific reserve through PENNCAP has been established for eligible loans to cover losses sustained by the Bank on enrolled loans. The reserve balance at December 31, 2002 was $125,232.
The Bank is unaware of any potential problem loans that have not been reviewed and addressed. Potential problem loans are those where there is known information that leads the Bank to believe repayment of principal and/or interest is in jeopardy and the loans are neither non-accrual nor past due 90 days or more.
Based upon the thorough analysis of both the loan portfolio and the allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2002, the Bank is confident that the allowance provides adequate protection against portfolio loss.
However, there could be instances of which the Bank is unaware that may require additional charge-offs and or increases to the provision.
Other IncomeThe $79,000 increase in service charges on deposit accounts is a result of the growth in the number of accounts and changes to the service charge structure. Service charges were revised during the first quarter of 2002. Service charges on deposit accounts exceeded 1.00% of gross income.
Investment securities were sold as part of a restructuring of the bond portfolio. Restructuring the portfolio was necessitated by the change in market rates. Many of the bonds sold were small, adjustable rate MBS with volatile cash flows. The proceeds from the sales were reinvested in stable, fixed rate MBS. Other sales were transacted in anticipation of bonds being called. Waiting for a bond to be called under the prevailing market conditions would have exposed the Bank to reinvesting the proceeds at lower yields.
The number of sale transactions was more than the previous year but the net gain was less. The difference in the composition of the portfolio, relative to market rates and potential calls, in both years, affected the outcome of sales activity.
There were no sales of investments classified as held-to-maturity.
As discussed in previous sections herein, loan sales were also based upon the need to protect future earnings from interest-rate risk. Loan sales generated net gains of $378,000 in 2002. That amount was increased by the recognition of the discounted future value of servicing rights on sold loans. The amount of realized income from servicing rights, included in total net gains from the sale of loans, was $228,000.

There were no sales of loans classified as held-to-maturity.
Improvements in loan delinquencies and modest loan growth were responsible for a $216,000 reduction in late charges on loans in 2002. Late charges are recorded as income when collected.
Increases in mortgage loan prepayments necessitated an acceleration of the amortization of mortgage servicing rights. Mortgage servicing rights amortization increased from $42,000 in 2001 to $133,000 in 2002.
Disposition of equipment made obsolete by the new core processing system and losses on terminated leases and the sale of the Clarks Green properties caused the Bank to record a loss on disposed assets of $48,000.
During 2001, the Bank sold servicing of the merchant credit card program. By doing this, the Bank reduced its exposure on these transactions and reduced expense. The Bank receives a monthly commission based on transactions. The commission is less than the income the Bank would have recognized if servicing was retained. As a result, gross revenues from merchant credit card processing decreased $106,000. The decrease in income was offset by a reduction in expense as detailed in the discussion of other expense, contained herein.
Service charges on loans, amortization of mortgage servicing rights, gains/(losses) on disposed assets and gross merchant credit card processing revenue are components of fees and other service charges.
Some components of fees and other service charges and other operating income and their related increase during 2002:
Increase
--------
Financial services revenue $160,000
ATM service charges $ 93,000
Trust income $ 45,000
Financial services revenue is generated by the sale of mutual funds and annuities, which are not insured by the FDIC.
New ATM locations and a change in service charges generated additional service charge income.

The $94,000 increase in service charges on deposit accounts is a result of the growth in the number of accounts and changes to the service charge structure.
Investment securities were sold to protect earnings from potential calls. The Bank also sold Sallie Mae stock since it was no longer required to own the stock. Sales of available-for-sale investments produced net gains of $459,000. There were no sales of investments classified as held-to-maturity.
Loan sales were based upon the need to protect earnings from interest rate risk. Sales generated net gains of $315,000 in 2001. Included in that amount was $117,000 of recognized income from mortgage servicing rights.
The increase in loans, before the allowance for loan losses, helped to generate an additional $138,000 in service charges.
Some components of fees and other service charges and other operating income and their related increase during 2001:
Increase
--------
Fees on sold loans $114,000
Trust income 77,000
Financial services revenue 66,000
ATM service charges 55,000
Fees on sold loans and income and checkbook fees rose through volume increases.
The hiring of a business development officer was successful in increasing financial services revenue.
Other ExpenseThe average number of full-time equivalent employees was 175 in 2002, up from 168 in 2001. Merit pay raises, higher benefit costs and the addition of personnel to address the growing needs of the Bank increased 2002 salaries and employee benefits by $572,000 above the amount reported for 2001.
During 2002, the Kingston office, which opened in April 2001, was operating for a full twelve months. The Eynon office was opened for six months. The impact of these branches contributed to a $104,000 increase in premises and equipment expense during 2002. Over 31% of the $104,000 increase resulted from a $33,000 rise in depreciation expense. Also, expenses of $50,000 were incurred during 2002 for contamination cleanup while constructing the Eynon Branch.

Total depreciation expense decreased $33,000 during 2002, due to the retirement of fixed assets. Depreciation on premises and leasehold improvements was $342,000 and depreciation on furniture and fixtures was $726,000. Furniture and fixture depreciation exceeded 1% of gross income.
With the addition of the Kingston branch new branch advertising increased 3.00% in 2002.
Some components of other expense and their change during 2002:

During 2001, the Bank sold the servicing of the merchant credit card portfolio. This resulted in savings of $116,000. A more detailed explanation of the sale is included in the discussion of other income, contained herein.
The additions of the new branches contributed to the increase in stationery and supplies.
Defending the civil complaint disclosed in Section 3 entitled, “Legal Proceedings”, contained herein, the establishment of the Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan along with the Bank’s increased credit and collection legal efforts taken during the ordinary course of business throughout 2002 caused the increase in legal fees.
Charges for the processing of the Bank’s cash letter constitute the majority of the correspondent bank expense. Because of historical increased processing expenses, the Bank elected to process its cash letter through the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia which resulted in reduced costs.
During 2002, an outside consulting firm was engaged to help prepare a strategic plan for the Company. Other professional costs were incurred regarding the opening of the Eynon branch.
A comprehensive review of all Bank assets was performed in preparation for the installation of the core processing system. A conclusion was reached that certain assets and overdrawn DDAs were uncollectible and $64,000 was charged-off. Additional charges of $9,000 were incurred from IRS penalty assessments.

The ratio of non-interest expense to average assets at December 31, 2002 and 2001 was 2.20% and 2.25% respectively. These ratios continue to be below peer comparison groups.
Provision for income taxesIncome before provision for income taxes in 2002 increased $818,000 over 2001. The effective federal income tax rate was 26.39% and 19.05% for the years ending December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The increase resulted from the continued decrease in tax-free interest income from municipal securities and tax-free loans. Non-taxable income as a percentage of income before taxes declined from 31.41% in 2001, to 18.90% in 2002.
The year 2001 as compared to 2000The average number of full-time equivalent employees was 168 in 2001. The 6% average staff increase, merit pay raises and higher benefit costs increased 2001 salaries and employee benefits by $521,000 above the amount reported for 2000.
The Peckville branch, which opened in February 2000, was operating for a full twelve months during 2001. The Kingston office was opened for nine months. The impact of these branches contributed to a $172,000 increase in premises and equipment expense during 2001. Over 32% of the increase resulted from a $55,000 rise in depreciation expense.
Depreciation on premises and improvements was $326,000 and depreciation on furniture and fixtures was $775,000.
Despite the addition of the Kingston branch, advertising decreased 3.00% in 2001.
Some components of other expense and their increases during 2001:
Increase/
(Decrease)
----------
Merchant card expense ($209,000)
Donations 190,000

Capital shares tax (70,000)
Correspondent banks 55,000
MAC expense 58,000
Under a state-sponsored initiative, the Bank contributed to a specified qualified local educational unit. In exchange for the donation, the Bank received state tax credits of $100,000. Those credits reduced the capital shares tax expense.

The reorganization of The Fidelity Deposit and Discount Bank into the formed financial holding company, Fidelity D&D Bancorp, Inc., incurred one time costs of $150,000 in 2000.
The ratio of non-interest expense to average assets at December 31, 2001 and 2000 was 2.25% and 2.46% respectively. These ratios continue to be below peer comparison groups.
Provision for income taxesIncome before provision for income taxes in 2001 increased $989,000 over 2000. The effective federal income tax rate was 19.05% and 15.47% for the years ending December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The increase resulted from less tax-free income earned on municipal securities and tax-free loans. Non-taxable income as a percentage of income before taxes declined from 45.92% in 2000, to 31.41% in 2001.
SUPERVISION AND REGULATIONFinancial Services Modernization Legislation. In November 1999, the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999, or the GLB, was enacted. The GLB repeals provisions of the Glass-Steagall Act which restricted the affiliation of Federal Reserve member banks with firms “engaged principally” in specified securities activities, and which restricted officer, director or employee interlocks between a member bank and any company or person “primarily engaged” in specified securities activities.
In addition, the GLB also contains provisions that expressly preempt any state law restricting the establishment of financial affiliations, primarily related to insurance. The general effect of the law is to establish a comprehensive framework to permit affiliations among commercial banks, insurance companies, securities firms and other financial service providers by revising and expanding the Bank Holding Company Act framework to permit a holding company to engage in a full range of financial activities through a new entity known as a "financial holding company." "Financial activities" is broadly defined to include not only banking, insurance and securities activities, but also merchant banking and additional activities that the Federal Reserve Board, in consultation with the Secretary of the Treasury, determines to be financial in nature, incidental to such financial activities or complementary activities that do not pose a substantial risk to the safety and soundness of depository institutions or the financial system generally.
The GLB also permits national banks to engage in expanded activities through the formation of financial subsidiaries. A national bank may have a subsidiary engaged in any activity authorized for national banks directly or any financial activity, except for insurance underwriting, insurance investments, real estate investment or development, or merchant banking, which may only be conducted through a subsidiary of a financial holding company. Financial activities include all activities permitted under new sections of the Bank Holding Company Act or permitted by regulation.

To the extent that the GLB permits banks, securities firms and insurance companies to affiliate, the financial services industry may experience further consolidation. The GLB is intended to grant to community banks certain powers as a matter of right that larger institutions have accumulated on an ad hoc basis and which unitary savings and loan holding companies already possess. Nevertheless, the GLB may have the result of increasing the amount of competition that the Company faces from larger institutions and other types of companies offering financial products, many of which may have substantially more financial resources than the Company has.
USA Patriot Act of 2001. In October 2001, the USA Patriot Act of 2001 was enacted in response to the terrorist attacks in New York, Pennsylvania and Washington D.C. which occurred on September 11, 2001. The Patriot Act is intended to strengthen U.S. law enforcement’s and the intelligence communities’ abilities to work cohesively to combat terrorism on a variety of fronts. The potential impact of the Patriot Act on financial institutions of all kinds is significant and wide ranging. The Patriot Act contains sweeping anti-money laundering and financial transparency laws and imposes various regulations, including standards for verifying client identification at account opening, and rules to promote cooperation among financial institutions, regulators and law enforcement entities in identifying parties that may be involved in terrorism or money laundering.
IMLAFATA. As part of the USA Patriot Act, Congress adopted the International Money Laundering Abatement and Financial Anti-Terrorism Act of 2001 (IMLAFATA). IMLAFATA amended the Bank Secrecy Act and adopted certain additional measures that increase the obligation of financial institutions, including The Fidelity Deposit and Discount Bank, to identify their customers, watch for and report upon suspicious transactions, respond to requests for information by federal banking regulatory authorities and law enforcement agencies, and share information with other financial institutions. The Secretary of the Treasury has adopted several regulations to implement these provisions. The bank is also barred from dealing with foreign "shell" banks. In addition, IMLAFATA expands the circumstances under which funds in a bank account may be forfeited. IMLAFATA also amended the BHC Act and the Bank Merger Act to require the federal banking regulatory authorities to consider the effectiveness of a financial institution's anti-money laundering activities when reviewing an application to expand operations. The Fidelity Deposit and Discount Bank have in place a Bank Secrecy Act compliance program.
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. On July 30, 2002, President Bush signed into law the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The stated goals of the Act are to increase corporate responsibility, to provide for enhanced penalties for accounting and auditing improprieties at publicly traded companies and to protect investors by improving the accuracy and reliability of corporate disclosures pursuant to the securities laws.

The Act is the most far-reaching U.S. securities legislation enacted in decades. The Act generally applies to all companies, both U.S. and non-U.S., that file or are required to file periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Due to the SEC's extensive role in implementing rules relating to many of the Act's new requirements, the final scope of these requirements remains to be determined.
The Act includes very specific additional disclosure requirements and new corporate governance rules, requires the SEC and securities exchanges to adopt extensive additional disclosure, corporate governance and other related rules and mandates further studies of certain issues by the SEC. The Act represents significant federal involvement in matters traditionally left to state regulatory systems, such as the regulation of the accounting profession, and to state corporate law, such as the relationship between a board of directors and management and between a board of directors and its committees.
The Act addresses, among other matters:
| 10-K | 46th Page of 99 | TOC | 1st | Previous | Next | ↓Bottom | Just 46th |
|---|
The Act contains provisions that were effective upon enactment on July 30, 2002 and provisions that will be phased in for up to one year after enactment. The SEC was delegated the task of enacting rules to implement various provisions with respect to, among other matters, disclosure in periodic filings pursuant to the Exchange Act.
Regulation W. Transactions between a bank and its “affiliates” are quantitatively and qualitatively restricted under the Federal Reserve Act. The Federal Deposit Insurance Act applies Sections 23A and 23B to insured nonmember banks in the same manner and to the same extent as if they were members of the Federal Reserve System. The Federal Reserve Board has also recently issued Regulation W, which codifies prior regulations under Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act and interpretative guidance with respect to affiliate transactions. Regulation W incorporates the exemption from the affiliate transaction rules but expands the exemption to cover the purchase of any type of loan or extension of credit from an affiliate. Affiliates of a bank include, among other entities, the bank’s holding company and companies that are under common control with the bank. The company is considered to be an affiliate of The Fidelity Deposit and Discount Bank. In general, subject to certain specified exemptions, a bank or its subsidiaries are limited in their ability to engage in “covered transactions” with affiliates:
In addition, a bank and its subsidiaries may engage in covered transactions and other specified transactions only on terms and under circumstances that are substantially the same, or at least as favorable to the bank or its subsidiary, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with nonaffiliated companies. A "covered transaction" includes:

In addition, under Regulation W:
Regulation W generally excludes all non-bank and non-savings association subsidiaries of banks from treatment as affiliates, except to the extent that the Federal Reserve Board decides to treat these subsidiaries as affiliates.
Concurrently with the adoption of Regulation W, the Federal Reserve Board has proposed a regulation which would further limit the amount of loans that could be purchased by a bank from an affiliate to not more than 100% of the bank's capital and surplus.
Federal and State Legislation:From time to time, various types of federal and state legislation have been proposed that could result in additional regulations and restrictions on the business of the company and the Bank. We cannot predict whether legislation will be adopted, or if adopted, how the new laws would affect our business. As a consequence, we are susceptible to legislation that may increase the cost of doing business. Management believes that the effects of current proposals on the liquidity, capital resources and the results of operations of the Company and the Bank will be minimal.
Other specific regulatory recommendations which, if implemented, could have a material effect upon our liquidity, capital resources or results of operations. In addition, the general cost of compliance with numerous federal and state laws does have, and in the future may have, a negative impact on our results of operations.
Further, our business is also affected by the state of the financial services industry, in general. As a result of legal and industry changes, management predicts that the industry will continue to experience an increase in consolidations as the financial industry strives for greater cost efficiencies and market share. Management is optimistic that these consolidations may enhance the Bank’s competitive position as a community bank.

Based upon the current uncertain economic outlook and inability to predict when interest rate changes will occur, the Company recognizes that there are challenges ahead and the Company is prepared to meet the challenges and effects of a changing interest rate environment. The addition of key management personnel is an important step in addressing future challenges. Management’s beliefs are that a significant impact on earnings depends on its ability to react to changes in interest rates. The Company will continue to maintain interest rate sensitivity of its earning assets and interest bearing liabilities to minimize any adverse effects on future earnings. The Company’s commitment to remaining a community based organization is very strong and the intention to recognize steady disciplined growth in its loan portfolios, while obtaining and maintaining a good core deposit base. Review and implementation of policies and procedures along with adding innovative products and services will continue. These steps are designed to provide the Company with stability and the wherewithal to provide customer service and increase shareholder value.

Item 8: FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATABoard of Directors and Shareholders
Fidelity D & D Bancorp, Inc.
Dunmore, Pennsylvania:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Fidelity D & D Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2002 and 2001 and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2002. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Fidelity D & D Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2002 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

| 1. | NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
| PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION | |
| The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Fidelity D & D Bancorp, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, The Fidelity Deposit & Discount Bank (the “Bank”) (collectively, the “Company”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. |
| NATURE OF OPERATIONS | |
| The Company provides a variety of financial services to individuals and corporate customers in Lackawanna and Luzerne Counties, Pennsylvania. This region has a diversified and fairly stable economy. The Company’s primary deposit products are savings accounts, NOW accounts, money market deposit accounts, certificates of deposit and checking accounts. Its primary lending products are single=family residential loans, secured consumer loans, and secured loans to businesses. In addition to these traditional banking services, the Company also provides annuities, mutual funds and trust services. | |
| Although the Company has a diversified loan portfolio, a substantial portion of its debtor’s ability to honor their contracts is dependent on the economic sector in which the Company operates. While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans and foreclosed assets, future additions to the allowances may be necessary based on changes in local economic conditions. In addition, regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company’s allowances for loan losses and foreclosed assets. Such agencies may require the Company to recognize additions to the allowances based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination. Because of these factors, it is reasonably possible that the allowances for loan losses and foreclosed assets may change materially in the near future. |

|---|
| USE OF ESTIMATES | |
| The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. | |
| Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to the determination for the allowance for losses on loans and the valuation of real estate acquired in connection with foreclosures or in satisfaction of loans. In connection with the determination of allowances for losses on loans and foreclosed real estate, management obtains independent appraisals for significant properties. |
| HELD-TO-MATURITY SECURITIES | |
| Debt securities for which the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are reported at cost, adjusted for premiums and discounts that are recognized in interest income over the period to maturity. |
| TRADING SECURITIES | |
| Debt and equity securities held principally for resale in the near term are recorded at their fair values. Unrealized gains and losses are included in other income. The Company did not have any investment securities held for trading purposes during 2002, 2001 or 2000. |
| AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE SECURITIES | |
| Available-for-sale securities consist of debt and equity securities not classified as either held-to-maturity securities or trading securities and are reported at fair value. Unrealized holding gains and losses, net of deferred income taxes, on available-for-sale securities are reported as a net amount as a separate component of shareholders’ equity until realized. These net unrealized holding gains and losses are the sole component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). |
| LOANS HELD FOR SALE | |
| Loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair value in the aggregate. Net unrealized losses are recognized through a valuation allowance by charges to income. |
| 10-K | 55th Page of 99 | TOC | 1st | Previous | Next | ↓Bottom | Just 55th |
|---|
| LOANS | |
| Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are stated at face value, net of unearned income, unamortized loan fees and costs and the allowance for loan losses. Interest on residential real estate loans is recorded on an amortized schedule. Commercial loan interest is accrued on the principal balance on an actual day basis. Interest on consumer loans is determined using the actuarial method or the simple interest method. | |
| The accrual of interest on impaired loans is discontinued when, in the opinion of management, there is an indication that the borrower may be unable to meet payments as they become due. Any payments received on impaired loans are applied, first to the outstanding loan amounts, then to the recovery of any charged=off loan amounts. Any excess is treated as a recovery of lost interest. |
| ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES | |
| The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses. The allowance represents an amount which, in management’s judgment, will be adequate to absorb probable losses on existing loans and leases that may become uncollectible. Management’s judgment in determining the adequacy of the allowance is based on evaluations of the collectibility of the loans. These evaluations take into consideration such factors as changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions that may affect the borrower’s ability to pay, overall portfolio quality and review of specific impaired loans. Loans considered uncollectible are charged to the allowance. Recoveries on loans previously charged off are added to the allowance. | |
| A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments in accordance to the contractual terms of the loan. Factors considered in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting payments when due. The significance of payment delays and/or shortfalls, is determined on a case by case basis. All circumstances surrounding the loan are taken into account. Such factors include the length of the delinquency, the underlying reasons and the borrower’s prior payment record. Impairment is measured on these loans on a loan by loan basis. | |
| Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, the Company does not separately identify individual consumer and residential loans for impairment disclosures. |

|---|
| LEASES | |
| Financing of equipment and automobiles is provided to customers under lease arrangements accounted for as direct financing leases. Income earned is based on a constant periodic return on the net investment in the lease. |
| LOAN FEES | |
| Nonrefundable loan origination fees and certain direct loan origination costs are recognized over the life of the related loans as an adjustment of yield. The unamortized balance of these fees and costs are included as part of the loan balance to which it relates. |
| BANK PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT | |
| Bank premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed on the straight=line and accelerated methods over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the useful lives or lease term. |
| LOAN SERVICING AND LOAN SERVICING RIGHTS | |
| The Company services real estate loans for investors in the secondary mortgage market, which are not included in the balance sheet. The cost of mortgage servicing rights is amortized in proportion to, and over the period of, estimated net servicing revenues. For purposes of measuring impairment, the rights are stratified based on the present dominant risk characteristics of the underlying loans, stated term of the loan and interest rate. The amount of impairment recognized is the amount by which the capitalized mortgage servicing rights for a stratum exceeds its fair value. Fair values are estimated using discounted cash flows based on a current market interest rate. |
| FORECLOSED ASSETS HELD FOR SALE | |
| Foreclosed assets held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value less cost to sell. Losses from the acquisition of property in full and partial satisfaction of debt are treated as credit losses. Routine holding costs and subsequent declines in value are included in other operating expenses. |

| STOCK OPTIONS | |
| At December 31, 2002, the Company has three stock=based employee compensation plans, which are described more fully in Note 9. The Company accounts for this plan under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in net income, as all options granted under this plan had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. |
| The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock=Based Compensation, to stockholder based employee compensation: |

| TRUST FEES | |
| Trust fees are recorded on the cash basis, which is not materially different from the accrual basis. |
| ADVERTISING COSTS | |
| Advertising costs are charged to expense as incurred. |
| FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS | |
| Cash and short-term instruments: The carrying amounts of cash and short-term instruments approximate their fair value. | |
| Available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities: Fair values for securities are based on bid prices received from securities dealers. Restricted equity securities are carried at cost. | |
| Loans receivable: The fair value of all loans is estimated by the net present value of the future expected cash flows. | |
| Loans available for sale: For loans available for sale, the fair value is estimated using rates currently offered for similar borrowings and are stated at the lower of cost or market. | |
| Deposit liabilities: The fair value of demand deposits, NOW accounts, savings accounts, and money market deposits is estimated by the net present value of the future expected cash flows. For certificates of deposit, the discount rates used reflect the Company’s current market pricing. The discount rates used for nonmaturity deposits are the current book rate of the deposits | |
| Short-term borrowings: For short-term borrowings, the fair value is estimated using the rates currently offered for similar borrowings. | |
| Long-term debt: For other borrowed funds, the fair value is estimated using the rates currently offered for similar borrowings. | |
| Accrued interest: The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate their fair values. | |
| Off-balance-sheet instruments: Commitments to extend credit are generally short term and are priced to market. The rates on standby letters of credit are priced on prime. Therefore, the estimated fair value of these financial instruments is face value. |

| 11. RETIREMENT PLAN |
| The Company has a defined contribution 401(k) plan covering substantially all employees of the Company. It is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). Contributions to the Plan were $246,201 in 2002, $211,518 in 2001 and $236,564 in 2000. |
| 12. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS |
| The Company is a party to financial instruments with off=balance=sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers and to reduce its own exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet. The contract or notional amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of the Company’s involvement in particular classes of financial instruments. |
| The Company’s exposure to credit loss from nonperformance by the other party to the financial instruments for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments. |

NOTIONAL
AMOUNT
======
Commitments to extend credit $76,622,900
Standby letters of credit 5,522,641
| Commitments to extend credit are legally binding agreements to lend to customers. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of fees. Since commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future liquidity requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s credit-worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if considered necessary by the Company on extension of credit, is based on management’s credit assessment of the customer. |
| Financial standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are issued primarily to support public and private borrowing arrangements, including commercial paper, bond financing, and similar transactions. The Company’s performance under the guarantee is required upon presentation by the beneficiary of the financial standby letter of credit. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The Company does not have any recourse provisions or hold any assets that would enable it to recover from third parties any of the amounts paid under the guarantee. The Company was not required to recognize any liability in connection with the issuance of these financial standby letters of credit. |

| 14. REGULATORY MATTERS |
| The Company is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possible additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s financial statements. 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. |
| 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 I capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier I capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). As of December 31, 2002, the Company meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject. |
| To be categorized as well capitalized the Company must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based, and Tier I leverage ratios as set forth in the table. The Company’s actual capital amounts and ratios are also presented in the table. No amounts were deducted from capital for interest-rate risk in either 2002, 2001 or 2000. |

| The Bank's capital and ratios are not materially different that those of the Company. |
| The Bank can pay dividends to the Company equal to the Bank’s retained earnings which approximated $35,000,000 at December 31, 2002. However, such dividends are limited due to the capital requirements discussed above. |
| 15. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS |
| During the ordinary course of business, loans are made to executive officers, directors, shareholders and associates of such persons. These transactions were made on substantially the same terms and at those rates prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with others. These loans do not involve more than the normal risk of collectability or present other unfavorable features. A summary of loan activity with officers, directors, shareholders and associates of such persons is as follows: |

| 17. CONTINGENCY |
| On July 1, 2002, the Bank was served with a Civil Complaint that was filed in the Court of Common Pleas of Lackawanna County, Pennsylvania, on June 28, 2002. Scaccia Construction Company, the plaintiff, based upon multiple causes of action, demands approximately $250,000 in connection with certain environmental remediation activities purportedly performed prior to the opening of the Bank’s new Eynon branch. On July 22, 2002, the Bank filed preliminary objections to the Civil Complaint. The preliminary objections were decided on November 26, 2002, and the Bank filed its Answer and New Matter raising various legal defenses. Formal discovery has commenced and depositions are scheduled through April 2003. The Bank intends to vigorously defend this action. |
| The nature of the Company’s business generates some litigation involving matters arising in the ordinary course of business. However, in the opinion of management of the Company after consulting with the Company’s legal counsel, no other legal proceedings are pending, which, if determined adversely to the Company or the Bank, would have a material effect on the Company’s shareholders’ equity or results of operations. No other legal proceedings are pending other than ordinary routine litigation incident to the business of the Company and the Bank. In addition, to management’s knowledge, no government authorities have initiated or contemplated any material legal actions against the Company or the Bank. |

| 18. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS |
| In June 2001, the FASB issued Statement No. 141, "Business Combinations." The Statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for business combinations and supersedes APB Opinion No. 16, "Business Combinations," and FASB Statement No. 38, "Accounting for Preacquisition Contingencies of Purchased Enterprises." All business combinations in the scope of the Statement are to be accounted for using the purchase method. The provisions of the Statement apply to all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. |
| In June 2001, the FASB issued Statement No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” The Statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for acquired goodwill and other intangible assets and supersedes APB Opinion No. 17, “Intangible Assets.” It addresses how intangible assets that are acquired individually or with a group of other assets (but not those acquired in a business combination) should be accounted for in financial statements upon their acquisition. The Statement also addresses how goodwill and other intangible assets should be accounted for after they have been initially recognized in the financial statements. The provisions of the Statement are required to be applied starting with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, except that goodwill and intangible assets acquired after June 30, 2002 will be subject immediately to the nonamortization and amortization provisions of the Statement. Early application is permitted for entries with fiscal years beginning after March 15, 2001, provided that the first interim financial statements have not previously been issued. The Statement is required to be applied at the beginning of an entity’s fiscal year and to be applied to all goodwill and other intangible assets recognized in its financial statement at that date. There was no impact on earnings, financial condition or equity upon adoption of Statement No. 142. |
| In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations.” This SFAS addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs. It applies to legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction, development and/or the normal operation of a long-lived asset, except for certain obligations of lessees. As used in this SFAS, a legal obligation is an obligation that a party is required to settle as a result of an existing or enacted law, statute, ordinance or written or oral contract or by legal construction of a contract under the doctrine of promissory estopple. This SFAS requires that the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset. This SFAS amends SFAS No. 19, “Financial Accounting and Reporting by Oil and Gas Producing Companies,” and it applies to all entities. It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. Earlier application is encouraged. The adoption of this SFAS on January 1, 2003 is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s earnings, financial condition or equity. |

|---|
| In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” This SFAS addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets and supercedes SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of.” However, the SFAS retains the fundamental provisions of SFAS No. 121 for (a) recognition and measurement of the impairment of long-lived assets to be held and used, and (b) measurement of long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale. This SFAS supercedes the accounting and recording provisions of APB Opinion No. 30, “Reporting the Results of Operations – Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions,” for the disposal of a segment of a business. However, this SFAS retains the requirement of Opinion No. 30 to report discontinued operations separately from continuing operations and extends that reporting to a component of an entity that either has been disposed of (by sale, by abandonment or in the distribution to owners) or is classified as held for sale. This SFAS also amends ARB No. 51, “Consolidated Financial Statements,” to eliminate the exception to consolidation for temporarily-controlled subsidiary. The provisions of this SFAS are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, interim periods within those fiscal years, with earlier application encouraged. The provisions of this SFAS generally are to be applied prospectively. The adoption of this SFAS on January 1, 2002 did not have an impact on the Company’s earnings, financial condition or equity. |
| In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, “Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44 and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections.” This SFAS rescinds SFAS No. 4, “Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt,” and an amendment of that Statement, SFAS No. 64, “Extinguishments of Debt Made to Satisfy Sinking-Fund Requirements,” along with rescinding SFAS No. 44, “Accounting for Intangible Assets of Motor Carriers and amending SFAS No. 13, “Accounting for Leases.” This SFAS (1) eliminates an inconsistency between the required accounting for sale-leaseback transactions and the required accounting for certain lease modifications that have economic effects that are similar to sale-leaseback transactions, (2) eliminates the extraordinary item treatment of reporting gains and losses from extinguishments of debt, and (3) makes certain other technical corrections. |

|---|
| The provisions of this SFAS related to the rescission of SFAS No. 4 are to be applied in fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002. Any gain or loss on extinguishments of debt that was classified as an extraordinary item in prior periods presented that does not meet the criteria in Opinion 30 for classification as an extraordinary item shall be reclassified. Early application of the provisions of this SFAS related to SFAS No. 13 shall be effective for transactions occurring after May 15, 2002. All other provisions of the SFAS shall be effective for financial statements issued on or after May 15, 2002. Early application of the SFAS is encouraged. The adoption of the effective portions of the SFAS did not have an impact on the Company’s earnings, financial condition or equity. The adoption of the remaining portions of this SFAS is not expected to have an impact on the Bank’s earnings, financial condition or equity. |
| In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.” This Statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 94-3, “Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (Including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring).” |
| The provisions of this SFAS are effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002, with early application encouraged. The Company does not expect the adoption of this Statement to have an impact on its earnings, financial condition or equity. |
| On October 1, 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 147, “Acquisitions of Certain Financial Institutions,” effective for all business combinations initiated after October 1, 2002. This Statement addresses the financial accounting and reporting for the acquisition of all or part of a financial institution, except for a transaction between two or more mutual enterprises. This SFAS removes acquisitions of financial institutions, other than transactions between two or more mutual enterprises, from the scope of SFAS No. 72, “Accounting for certain Acquisitions of Banking or Thrift Institutions,” and FASB Interpretation No. 9, “Applying APB Opinions No. 16 and 17 When a Savings and Loan Association or a Similar Institution is Acquired in a Business Combination Accounted for by the Purchase Method.” The acquisition of all or part of a financial institution that meets the definition of a business combination shall be accounted for by the purchase method in accordance with SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations,” and SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” This SFAS also provides guidance on the accounting for the impairment or disposal of acquired long-term customer-relationship intangible assets (such as depositor- and borrower-relationship intangible assets and credit cardholder intangible assets), including those acquired in transactions between two or more mutual enterprises. The adoption of this SFAS did not have an impact on the Company’s earnings, financial condition or equity. |

| In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of the Indebtedness of Others.” This Interpretation clarifies the requirements for a guarantor’s accounting for and disclosures of certain guarantees issued and outstanding. This Interpretation requires a guarantor to recognize a liability for the fair value of the obligation it assumes under that guarantee. |
| The initial recognition and initial measurement provisions of the Interpretation are applied on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. The guarantor’s accounting for guarantees issued prior to the date of initial application should not be revised or restated to reflect the effect of the recognition and measurement provisions of the Interpretation. The Interpretation’s disclosure requirements were implemented during the year ended December 31, 2002. The adoption of the recognition and measurement provisions of this Interpretation are not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s earnings, financial condition or equity. |
