Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis
General
Ridgestone Financial Services, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated in
May 1994 under the laws of the State of Wisconsin for the purpose of
becoming the bank holding company of Ridgestone Bank (the "Bank").
The Bank was capitalized on December 6, 1995, and commenced operation on
December 7, 1995. The Bank was organized as a Wisconsin chartered
commercial bank with depository accounts insured by the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation. The Bank provides full service commercial and
consumer banking services in Brookfield, Wisconsin, and adjacent
communities.
The following is a discussion of the Company's Financial Condition and
Results of Operations for the three and nine months ended September 30,
1997.
Financial Condition
Total Assets. Total assets of the Company as of September 30, 1997 were
$54,129,199 compared to $41,805,534 as of December 31, 1996, an increase
of 29.5%. This increase was primarily the result of loan growth at the
Bank.
Loans. Loans prior to the allowance for estimated loan losses were
$40,351,115 as of September 30, 1997, an increase of $20,965,018 or 108.1%
from December 31, 1996. At September 30, 1997, the mix of the loan
portfolio included Commercial Loans of $15,819,214 or 39.2% of total
loans; Commercial Real Estate Loans of $10,935,051 or 27.1% of total
loans; Residential Real Estate Loans of $10,882,144 or 27.0% of total
loans; and Consumer Loans of $2,714,706 or 6.7% of total loans.
Allowance for Estimated Loan Losses. The allowance for estimated loan
losses was $334,740 or .83% of gross loans on September 30, 1997. There
were no loan charge-offs or recoveries during 1996 or for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997. On a regular basis, management evaluates the
adequacy of the allowance for estimated loan losses based on factors such
as the local and national economy as well as an analysis of specific
problem loans and loans on an aggregate basis. The allowance for
estimated loan losses is maintained at a level management considers
adequate to provide for potential future losses. For additional
information regarding the Company's allowance for estimated loan losses,
see "Results of Operations - Provision for Loan Losses" below.
Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents were $5,530,527 as
of September 30, 1997 compared to $14,937,881 as of December 31, 1996, a
decrease of $9,407,354. Cash and cash equivalents represent cash
maintained at the Bank and funds that the Bank and the Company have
deposited in other financial institutions. The decrease was primarily in
federal funds sold, which are inter-bank funds with daily liquidity, and
was the result of the funding of loan growth at the Bank.
Investment Securities. The Bank's investment portfolio consists of (i)
securities purchased with the intent to hold the securities until they
mature and (ii) securities placed in the available for sale category which
may be liquidated to provide cash for operating or financing purposes.
The securities held-to-maturity portfolio was $4,799,394 at September 30,
1997 compared to $5,005,606 at December 31, 1996. The securities
available-for-sale portfolio was $1,878,594 at September 30, 1997 compared
to $1,051,813 at December 31, 1996.
Deposits. As of September 30, 1997, total deposits were $47,541,600, an
increase of $11,872,940 or 33.3% from December 31, 1996. Each category of
deposits increased during the first nine months of 1997. Demand Deposits
increased by $2,320,739 or 69.0%, while Interest-Bearing Demand Deposits
and Savings increased by $3,127,596 or 18.6% and Time Deposits increased
by $6,424,605 or 29.3% since December 31, 1996. The increase in deposits
was primarily the result of the Bank expanding relationships with its
existing customers and the continued emphasis on attracting targeted new
customers.
Asset/Liability Management. The principal function of asset/liability
management is to manage the balance sheet mix, maturities, repricing
characteristics and pricing components to provide an adequate and stable
net interest margin with an acceptable level of risk over time and through
interest rate cycles.
Liquidity. For banks, liquidity generally represents the ability to meet
withdrawals from deposits and the funding of loans. The assets that
provide liquidity are cash, federal funds sold and short-term loans and
securities. Liquidity needs are influenced by economic conditions,
interest rates and competition. Although loan growth can negatively
affect short-term liquidity, management believes the Bank will be able to
meet liquidity demands as the Bank's loan growth continues.
Results of Operations
For the quarter ended September 30, 1997, the Company reported net income
of $2,891 as compared to a loss of $247,203 for the same period in 1996.
For the nine month period ended September 30, 1997, the Company reported
net income of $35,735 which compared to a loss $803,406 for the nine
months ended September 30, 1996.
Net Interest Income. Net interest income for the three months ended
September 30, 1997 was $429,491, an increase of $329,882 from the same
period in 1996. Net interest income for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997 was $1,048,484 compared to $314,158 for the same period
in 1996, an increase of 233.7%. The increase was due primarily to greater
average outstanding balances in interest bearing assets, primarily loans.
Total interest income for the three months ended September 30, 1997 was
$972,344 and $2,543,788 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, an
increase of $543,104 and $1,642,950 over the same periods in 1996,
respectively. Total interest expense rose by $908,624 for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997 and $213,222 for the three months ended September
30, 1997 over the same periods in 1996. The increase in interest expense
was primarily due to greater average balances in interest-bearing
deposits.
Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses is based on
management's evaluation of factors such as the local and national economy
and the risk associated with the loans in the portfolio. Management
considers the adequacy of the allowance for estimated loan losses on a
regular basis. During the nine month period ended September 30, 1997, no
provision for loan losses was made, as management considered the current
reserve of $334,740 or .83% of outstanding loans to be adequate.
A real estate loan with an original principal amount of $650,000 which was
secured by certain real estate assets was placed in non-accrual in the
second quarter of 1997. The entity owning the underlying real estate
assets securing this loan filed for bankruptcy in the third quarter of
1997. The Bank purchased these real estate assets from the bankruptcy
court on October 27, 1997 for an additional $953,790. The Bank's fourth
quarter financial statements will reflect the new status of the loan as
other real estate owned. The real estate assets are presently being
liquidated and management does not currently anticipate that the Bank will
incur a material loss as a result of the original loan.
Non-Interest Income and Expense. Other operating income was $62,172 for
the three months ended September 30, 1997 compared to $45,980 for the same
period in 1996. Other operating income was $299,168 for the first nine
months of 1997 compared to $62,030 for the same period in 1996, an
increase of $237,138. These increases were due primarily to gains on the
sale of securities and increased fee income.
Operating expenses were $488,772 for the three months ended September 30,
1997 compared to $362,792 for the same period in 1996. For the three
months ended September 30, 1997, salaries and employee benefit expense was
$240,631 or 49.2% of total operating expenses, and occupancy and equipment
expense was $100,149 or 20.5 % of total operating expenses. Payroll and
occupancy expense increased by $103,995 over the same period in 1996.
Operating expenses were $1,310,666 for the nine months ended September 30,
1997 compared to $1,117,945 for the same period in 1996. For the nine
month period ended September 30, 1997, salaries and employee benefit
expense was $704,515 or 53.8% of total operating expenses, and occupancy
and equipment expense was $260,548 or 19.9% of total operating expenses.
