Note 4. - Regulatory Capital
Regulators of the corporation and its subsidiaries have
implemented risk-based capital guidelines which requires the
maintenance of certain minimum capital as a percent of assets and
certain off-balance sheet items adjusted for predefined credit risk factors.
The regulatory minimum for Tier 1 and combined Tier 1 and Tier 2
capital ratios were 4.0% and 8.0%, respectively. Tier 1 capital includes
<PAGE>9
tangible common shareholder's equity reduced by goodwill and certain
other intangibles. Tier 2 capital includes portions of the allowance for
loan losses, not to exceed Tier 1 capital. In addition to the risk-based
guidelines, a minimum leverage ratio (Tier 1 capital as a percentage of
average total consolidated assets) of 4.0% is required. This minimum
may be increased by at least 1.0% or 2.0% for entities with higher levels
of risk or that are experiencing or anticipating significant growth. The
following table contains the capital ratios for the Corporation and it's
subsidiary as of June 30, 1998.

and a 10 year call provision at the Company's discretion. This capital
was raised to meet current and future opportunities of the Company.
PART 1. ITEM 2.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis is provided to address information about
the Company's financial condition and results of operations which is not
otherwise apparent from the consolidated financial statements incorporated
by reference or included in this report. Reference should be made to those
statements for an understanding of the following discussion and analysis.
Results of Operations
Results of operations for the period ended June 30, 1998 reflected
net income of $802 thousand, a decrease of 17.66% over net income reported
for the corresponding period in 1997. Operating results of the Company
when measured as a percentage of average equity reveals a decrease in
return on average equity from 12.62% for the six-month period in 1997
to 9.42% for the corresponding period in 1998.
Return on average assets at .57% reflects a decrease from .87% for the
comparable 1997 period. These decreases in the profitability ratios over the
comparable period are the result of the absorption of the additional costs
associated with the opening of a new branch in December of 1997, additional
costs relating to the $7.5 million capital issue in January of 1998 and the
continued increased funding of the Bank's loan loss reserve.
Net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 1998
increased 13.62%, approximately $530 thousand over the comparable
1997 period. Average interest-earning assets increased approximately
$47.50 million from June 30, 1997 to the current period while
<PAGE>10
average interest-bearing liabilities increased $61.16 million during the
same comparative period. The yield on average interest-earning assets
increased 15 basis points to 8.51% in 1998 as compared to 8.36% in
1997. The yield on average interest-bearing liabilities decreased 9 basis
points to 5.28% in 1998 as compared to 5.37% in 1997.
Through the second quarter of 1998, the provision for possible loan losses
totaled $604 thousand, a $214 thousand increase from the corresponding
period in 1997. The Company continually monitors the loan portfolio for
signs of credit weaknesses or developing collection problems. Levels for
each period are determined after evaluating the loan portfolio and
determining the level necessary to absorb current charge-offs and maintain
the reserve at adequate levels. Net charge-offs for the first six months of
1998 were $442 thousand compared with $141 thousand in 1997. Net charge-offs
were .21% of total loans for the six months ended June 30, 1998 as compared
to .08% for the six months ended June 30, 1997. Loan loss reserves increased
36.11% to $1.79 million at June 30, 1998 as compared to June 30, 1997.
Reserves as of June 30, 1998 represent .85% of total loans versus .70% for the
1997 period.
Financial Position
Total loans have increased from $175.2 million at June 30, 1997 to
$212.9 million at June 30, 1998. The loan to deposit ratio has
decreased from 84.85% at June 30, 1997 to 81.61% at June 30, 1998.
Loan demand continues at a high pace even with a competitive market
area.
Non-performing assets are comprised of loans on non-accrual status
and loans contractually past due 90 days or more and still accruing
interest. Non-performing assets were $2.8 million at June 30, 1998,
or 1.30% of total loans, compared with $823 thousand, at June 30, 1997.
Securities totaled $59.5 million (market value) at June 30, 1998 which
reflects an increase of $20.2 million or 51.4% from the June 30, 1997
total of $39.3 million. The majority of this increase is in purchases
of adjustable rate securities in order to match the current volatile
rate environment. The Corporation has also increased its investments
in municipal securities. Securities, as of June 30, 1998, are comprised of
obligations of the U.S. Government, approximately 89.65% of the total
securities portfolio, municipal issues, approximately 8.24% of the securities
portfolio, and equity securities, approximately 2.11% of the securities
portfolio. The Company's entire security portfolio is classified as
available for sale for both 1998 and 1997.
Total stockholder's equity of the Company was $17.3 million at June
30, 1998, representing an increase of $1.6 million or 9.85% over
June 30, 1997. The Company maintains a significant level of liquidity
in the form of cash and cash equivalents ($7.1 million at June 30, 1998),
overnight investment in Federal Funds Sold (4.9 million at June 30, 1998)
and investment securities available for sale ($59.5 million).
Both cash and Federal Funds Sold are immediately available for satisfaction
of deposit withdrawals, customer credit needs and operations of the Company.
Investment securities available for sale represent a secondary level of
liquidity available for conversation to liquid funds in the event of
extraordinary needs.
