ITEM 5 - MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON STOCK AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
The Group's common stock is traded in the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) under
the symbol OFG. Information concerning the range of high and low sales prices
for the Group's common shares for each quarter during fiscal 2000 and the
previous two fiscal years, as well as cash dividends declared for the last three
fiscal years, and cash dividends declared is contained in Table 12
("Capital, Dividends and Stock Data") and under the "Stockholders' Equity"
caption in the Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations ("MD&A"), (see Financial Data Index herein) and is
incorporated herein by reference.
Information concerning legal or regulatory restrictions on the payment of
dividends by the Group and the Bank is contained under the caption "Dividend
Restrictions" in Item 1 herein.
On August 18, 1998, the Group declared a four-for-three (33.3%) stock split on
common stock held by registered shareholders as of September 30, 1998. As a
result, approximately 3,385,000 shares of common stock were distributed on
October 15, 1998. In addition, on August 11, 1997, the Group declared a
five-for-four (25%) stock split on common stock held by registered shareholders
as of September 30, 1997. As a result, approximately 2,012,000 shares of common
stock were distributed on October 15, 1997.

<PAGE>
As of August 31, 2000 the Group had over 2,000 stockholders of record of its
Common Stock, including all directors and officers of the Registrant, excluding
beneficial owners whose shares are held in record names of brokers or other
nominees. The last sales price for the Group's Common Stock on such date, as
quoted on the NYSE was $13.125 per share.
In May 1999, the Group issued 1,340,000 shares of its 7.125% Non-cumulative
Monthly Income Preferred Stock, Series A at $25 per share. As a result of this
issuance, the Group generated $32,300,000 in net proceeds for general corporate
purposes. The Series A Preferred Stock has the following characteristics: (1)
Annual dividends of $1.78125 per share payable monthly, if declared by the board
of directors. Missed dividends are not cumulative, (2) redeemable at the Group's
option beginning on May 30, 2004, (3) no mandatory redemption or stated maturity
date and (4) a liquidation value of $25 per share.
The Puerto Rico Internal Revenue Code of 1994, as amended, generally imposes
a withholding tax on the amount of any dividends paid by corporations to
individuals, whether residents of Puerto Rico or not, trusts, estates, and
special partnerships at a special 10% withholding tax rate. If the recipient
is foreign corporation or partnership not engaged in trade or business in
Puerto Rico the rate of withholding is also 10%. Prior to the first dividend
distribution for the taxable year, individuals who are residents of Puerto
Rico may elect to be taxed on the dividends at the regular rates, in which
case the special 10% tax will not be withheld from such year's distributions.
United States citizens who are non-residents of Puerto Rico will not be
subject to Puerto Rico tax on dividends if said individual's gross income
from sources within Puerto Rico during the taxable year does not exceed
$1,300 if single, or $3,000 if married, and form AS 2732 of the Puerto Rico
Treasury Department "Withholding Tax Exemption Certificate for the Purpose of
Section 1147" is filed with the withholding agent. U.S. income tax law
permits a credit against the U.S. income tax liability, subject to certain
limitations, for certain foreign income taxes paid or deemed paid with
respect to such dividends.
ITEM 6 - SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA
The information required by this item appears on page F-2 of the MD&A (see
Financial Data Index herein) and is incorporated herein by reference. The
following selected financial data of Oriental should be read in conjunction
with the "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations" and the audited consolidated financial statements
appearing on pages F-21 through F-48. Selected financial data are presented
for five fiscal years. The Group's financial statements for the fiscal years
ending June 30, 1999 and 1998 have been restated. The Group spent a
substantial amount of time, effort and expense over a two-year period
investigating certain irregularities and illegal conduct by former employees
to identify the items that required the restatement of fiscal years 1999 and
1998. It was not able, however, to determine how to allocate an additional
amount of $5.8 million (after tax) which relates to periods prior to fiscal
year 1998. Accordingly, that amount has been recognized as an adjustment to
beginning retained earnings for 1998. Oriental believes that it would require
an unreasonable effort and expense to determine how to restate the financial
statements for periods prior to 1998, if such allocations could be determined
at all. Therefore, financial data for fiscal years 1997 and 1996 have not
been restated and should not be relied upon. For a further discussion of the
restatement see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations - Restatement" and Note 2 to the consolidated
financial statements.
The ratios shown below demonstrate the Group's ability to generate sufficient
earnings to pay the fixed charges of its debt and preferred stock dividends.
The Group's ratio of earnings to fixed charges on a consolidated basis for
each of the last five years is as follows:

For purposes of computing these consolidated ratios, earnings represent income
before taxes, plus fixed charges. Fixed charges represent all interest expense
(ratios are presented both excluding and including interest in deposits),
amortization of debt costs, and the portion of net rental expense which is
deemed representative of interest factor.
In fiscal years 2000 and 1999, the Group had preferred stock issued and
outstanding amounting to $33,500,000 or 1,340,000 shares at a $25 liquidation
value.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OVERVIEW OF FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE
Oriental's net income available to common shareholders for its fiscal year
ended June 30, 2000 totaled $17.2 million ($1.31 per share) and total capital
amounted $117.9 million at June 30, 2000. Net income available to common
shareholders for fiscal years 1999 and 1998 (these years have been restated
as discussed below), was $26.4 million ($1.93 per share) and $19.4 million
($1.39 per share), respectively. Unless otherwise noted, all references to
financial results reflect restated numbers.
The Group has taken decisive measures to address the issues discussed in the
announcement released on August 22, 2000 (see Restatement section below).
Despite the restatement amounts and restructuring charges discussed below,
the Group achieved solid growth in core revenue and total financial assets
this past year. The Group is well capitalized, with a leverage ratio of
7.49%, a Tier-1 risk-based ratio of 29.29% and a total risk-based ratio of
30.54%. The Group strategy remains firmly on track with improved business
momentum, a lower risk profile and excellent prospects. The Group continues
its evolution into an increasingly agile, more diversified financial services
provider with significant earnings potential.
Net income for fiscal 2000 was positively impacted by the Group's ability to
grow net credit income (net interest income after provision for loan
losses), despite the adverse effect on the cost of funds from interest rate
hikes. Net credit income for fiscal year 2000 was $36.3 million, a 27.3%
increase from fiscal year 1999, which tallied $28.6 million. Income from
trust, money management and brokerage fees grew 18% to $12 million in fiscal
2000. However, there was a 35.4% decline in mortgage-banking revenues as a
result of the interest rate hikes. The Group expects mortgage-banking
revenues to improve in fiscal year 2001 as a result of focusing on
collateralized lending. Overall, recurrent revenues grew 15% to reach $58.9
million in fiscal 2000 from $51.2 million in fiscal 1999.
The provision for loan losses decreased 43.5% to $8.2 million, from $14.5
million in fiscal 1999, reflecting reduced risk in the loan portfolio
(presently, it is virtually 100% collateralized with real estate) through the
previously announced sale of leases and unsecured personal loans. The
provision for fiscal year 2000 includes a $1.4 million charge to liquidate
the remaining lease portfolio. The Group expects the provision for loan
losses to be substantially less during fiscal year 2001.
Non-interest expenses grew 11.9% from $35.6 million (fiscal 1999)
to $39.9 million in fiscal 2000, as a result of some of the charges described
below.
The following restructuring and other accounting charges in the
aggregate amount of $6.2 million ($4.8 million net of taxes), affected fiscal
2000 results:
- Loss related to certain uncollected principal and interest -- $1.8 million
- Provision to liquidate the remaining consumer loans and leases -- $1.4
million ($856,000 net of taxes)
- Loss on the contract to sell the consumer loans and lease portfolios -- $1.2
million ($900,000 net of taxes)
- Other losses and charges (primarily closing charges) -- $1.8 million
($1.2 million net of taxes)
For more on this matter, please refer to the restatement section at page F-7
and to Note 2 at the financial statements included herein.
The Group's total financial assets (banking assets plus assets managed by the
trust and broker-dealer divisions) increased 10%, to $4.222 billion as of
June 30, 2000, from $3.840 billion as of June 30, 1999. The Group's bank
assets increased 17.0% to $1.850 billion, up from $1.581 billion a year
before. Assets managed by the trust and broker-dealer increased 4.7% to
$2.371 billion in fiscal 2000 from $2.266 billion a year earlier.
EARNINGS ANALYSIS
NET INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income, the Group's main source of earnings, is affected by the
difference between rates earned on the Group's interest-earning assets and
rates paid on its interest-bearing liabilities (interest rate spread). During
the past fiscal year, the Fed raised interest rates six times in an effort to
slowdown the booming US economy and related inflation concerns. As a result,
fed funds and discount rates reached their highest levels in nine years (6.5%
and 6.0% respectively at June 30, 2000). As further discussed in the Risk
Management section, the Group constantly monitors the composition and
repricing of its assets and liabilities to maintain its net interest income
at adequate levels and manage the effect on its earnings capacity in a
volatile interest rate environment.

Net interest income for fiscal 2000 totaled $44.5 million, up 3.4% from $43
million in fiscal 1999. This rise was the net effect of a positive variance
of $5.4 million linked to a greater volume of interest-earning assets, and a
negative rate variance of $3.9 million due to a lower average yield on loans
(9.60% versus 10.05% in fiscal 1999) and a higher average cost of funds
(5.29% versus 4.99% in fiscal 1999).
On the other hand, the interest rate spread for fiscal 2000 narrowed 51 basis
points to 2.43% from 2.94% in fiscal 1999. The higher average cost of funds
combined with a change in the mix of interest-earning assets toward a higher
volume of lower risk and tax-free investment securities was responsible for
the spread compression. Table 1 analyzes the major categories of
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, their respective
interest income, expenses, yields and costs, and their impact on net interest
income due to changes in volume and rates.
The Group's interest income for fiscal 2000 totaled $126.2 million, up 17.1%
from the $107.8 million posted in fiscal 1999. The increase results from a
larger volume of interest-earning assets ($1.635 billion versus $1.359
billion in fiscal 1999) tempered by a decline in their yield performance
(7.72% in 2000 versus 7.93% in 1999). See Table 1 for the impact on interest
expense due to changes in volume and rates including information on a tax
equivalent basis.
Average interest-earning assets for fiscal 2000 reached $1.635 billion, an
increase of 20.3% compared with $1.359 billion in fiscal 1999. The investment
portfolio experienced most of this growth, as its average volume advanced by
31.4% ($1.058 billion in 2000 versus $805.7 million in 1999) during fiscal
2000. This rise was concentrated in mortgage-backed securities, which
expanded by 26.7% ($882.5 million in 2000 versus $696.3 million in 1999), as
Oriental converted residential real estate loans into tax-advantaged
mortgage-backed securities.
The average yield on interest-earning assets was 7.72%, a decrease of 21
basis points compared to the 7.93% attained in the previous year. This
reduction relates primarily to the dilution caused by the strong growth of
the Group's investment portfolio (which carries a lower yield than the loan
portfolio but provides less risk and generates a significant amount of
tax-exempt interest). Another factor was the lower yield attained by the loan
portfolio, as previously mentioned, which decreased by 45 basis points (9.60%
versus 10.05% in 1999) due to the gradual change of the loan portfolio's mix
toward low-risk residential mortgage loans.
Interest expense for fiscal 2000 rose to $81.7 million, an increase of 26.2%
from the $64.7 million reported in fiscal 1999. A larger base of
interest-bearing liabilities drove this increase, coupled with a higher average
cost of funds (5.29% versus 4.99% in 1999). See Table 1 for the impact in
interest expense due to changes in volume and rates.
Average interest-bearing liabilities experienced a 19% growth ($1.543 billion
versus $1.297 in fiscal 1999) during fiscal 2000. This rise was mostly
related to increases in Time and IRA deposits (mostly IRA accounts) and
repurchase agreements. The increase in IRA accounts reflects a successful
IRA campaign launched by the Group in this year's tax season, which captured
over $60 million in new IRA accounts. The 39.8% climb in repurchase
agreements ($713 million versus $510 million in 1999) is linked to the
substantial growth experienced in the investment portfolio.
The cost of interest-bearing liabilities totaled 5.29% in fiscal 2000, 30
basis points higher than the 4.99% attained a year earlier. A constant rising
interest rate scenario due to the tightening policy adopted by the Federal
Reserve (as previously discussed) triggered this overall rise. The interest
rate hikes had an adverse effect on the Group's cost of funds, primarily over
the last two quarters. As a result, the Group's borrowing cost (comprised
mainly of short-term repurchase agreements and long-term floating term notes)
rose 39 basis points to 5.68% from 5.29% in fiscal 1999, which represented an
unfavorable rate variance of $3.8 million.
NON-INTEREST INCOME
As a diversified financial services provider (See table 2), the Group's
earnings depend not only on the net interest income generated from its
banking activity, but also from fees and other non-interest income generated
from the wide array of financial services offered. Non-interest income, the
second largest source of earnings, is affected by the level of trust assets
under management, transactions generated by the gathering of financial assets
by the broker-dealer operation, the level of mortgage banking activities, and
fees generated from loans and deposit accounts.
For fiscal year 2000, recurrent non-interest revenues remained stable at
$26.6 million compared with the $26.7 million reported for the preceding
year. Additional income generated by an increase in fees from financial
services (trust and brokerage operations) and retail banking operations was
tempered by a reduction in mortgage banking activities (see Table 2).
Trust, money management and brokerage fees (the principal component of
recurrent non-interest income) continued their excellent upward trend during
fiscal 2000 totaling $12 million, up 18% from the $10.2 million in the
preceding year. The larger volume of accounts and assets managed by both the
Group's trust department and the broker-dealer subsidiary substantiate this
growth (see "Financial Assets" section).

<PAGE>
The Group's mortgage banking operations are highly dependent on market and
economic conditions, including interest rate levels. These conditions affect
the volume of origination or purchase of single-family residential loans and
the subsequent securitization and sale of such loans. Revenues from mortgage
banking activities totaled $5.9 million in fiscal 2000, down 35.4% from $9.1
million achieved in fiscal 1999. A smaller volume of loan sales ($89.1
million versus $160.3 million in fiscal 1999) was the main cause for this
reduction. This was primarily the result of unfavorable market conditions
(due to higher interest rates) during the latter stage of fiscal 2000 that
resulted in a lower loan origination production ($128.5 million versus $229.4
million in fiscal 1999).
Bank services revenues consist primarily of fees generated by electronic
banking, deposit accounts and branch customer services. These revenues
totaled $2.3 million in fiscal 2000, a 23% hike versus the $1.9 million
reported for fiscal 1999. This increase reflects higher revenues from bank
services and deposit accounts, mainly driven by a new structure in banking
fees and the expansion of the electronic banking business.
NON-INTEREST EXPENSES
Non-interest expenses increased 11.9% from $35.6 million in fiscal 1999 to
$39.9 million in fiscal 2000, primarily as a result of certain charges
described on the "Overview of Financial Performance" and "Non-Recurring
Activities" sections. Excluding these charges, recurrent non-interest
expenses for fiscal 2000 increased to $36.0 million (10.1%) from $32.7
million reported for fiscal 1999 (shown in Table 3). The efficiency and
expense ratios for fiscal 2000 were 58.56% (up from 53.38%) and 1.00% (down
from 0.88% in 1999), respectively. The increase in non-interest expenses was
tempered by the Group's strict cost control policy.
Employee compensation and benefits is the Group's largest expense category.
For fiscal 2000, total compensation increased 3.6% to $15.7 million (0.90% of
total average assets) from $15.1 million (1.04% of total average assets) in
fiscal 1999. This increase was primarily associated with a 17.7% rise in
fixed compensation ($11.5 million versus $9.7 million in 1999) due to an
overall staff merit increase in July 1999. This was partially offset by a
22.1% reduction in variable compensation ($4.2 million versus $5.4 million in
1999) mainly due to the lower amount of mortgage production incentives
(directly tied to mortgage originations) paid in fiscal 2000. The average
compensation by employee increased slightly ($43,000 versus $41,300 in 1999),
reflecting the tight control over the Group's staff levels. Full-time
equivalent employees decreased to 352 at June 30, 2000 from 373 at the end of
1999. The ratio of assets per employee expanded to $5.894 million in fiscal
2000 from $4.740 million in fiscal 1999.
Other non-interest expenses for fiscal 2000 increased 15.7% to $20.3 million
as compared to $17.6 million reported in fiscal 1999. Increased occupancy and
equipment costs (mainly technology) were primarily responsible for this rise.
The increase in occupancy and equipment costs was mainly associated with the
heavy investment in technology and general infrastructure to enhance and
expand the Group's communication and electronic data processing systems,
including the conversion to a new core banking system in September 1999. It
also reflects a remodeling made to the main facilities housing the brokerage,
trust and mortgage lending operations as well as the rent for the new
headquarters. Management expects these expenses to strengthen the Group's
image and customer service quality as well as to aid its future business
expansion and product diversification.
In addition, higher professional fees and municipal and general taxes (which
are directly tied to the volume of business) were responsible for this
growth. The rise in municipal and general taxes was primarily associated with
the general growth in the Group's business activities, products and services.
The larger amount of professional and service fees includes consulting and
technical support expenditures associated with upgrading banking operations
and the recent conversion of the Group's electronic core system, in addition
to costs necessary to prepare for the year 2000 (Y2K) computer bug and costs
associated with the investigation discussed below.
NON RECURRING ACTIVITIES
Non-recurring activities (see Tables) reflected a net loss of $3.2 million
versus a net gain of $8.4 million reported for fiscal year 1999. This was
mainly due to a 92% decrease in gains from trading and securities activities
($820,000 versus $10.3 million in fiscal 1999). This decline was mainly
associated to the adverse market conditions that prevailed during the last
two quarters of fiscal year 2000.
Fiscal 2000 includes a $1.2 million loss in loans under contract-to-sell
which stems from the market valuation of the leases ($70.3 million) and
unsecured consumer loan portfolios ($98.5 million) that were sold in July
2000 to another financial institution.
As previously reported, a review of the Group's accounts initiated during
August 1998 detected certain irregularities in connection with a former
officer's admission of having embezzled funds. After notifying the
appropriate regulatory authorities, the Group conducted an intensive
investigation assisted by its legal counsel and independent accountants which
concluded during October 2000, and determined losses and other matters
resulting from dishonest and fraudulent acts and omissions by former
employees. These losses were allocated through different fiscal periods and
are included within other non-recurrent expenses in Table 5. For more on this
matter, refer to the Restatement section below.

Other non-recurrent expenses mainly stem from the losses and costs related to
the investigation of irregularities explained above. This item reflects an
increase of 32.7%, to $3.8 million in fiscal 2000 versus $2.9 million
reported in fiscal 1999.
INCOME TAXES
Income taxes for fiscal 2000 decreased to $108,000, a 46.0% decrease compared
with the $200,000 reported for fiscal year 1999. This decrease is directly
associated to the lower amount of earnings as well as to the higher amount of
exempt income the Group earned during fiscal 2000. The Group's effective tax
rate is much lower than the maximum statutory income tax rate, which is 39%.
This is largely due to the significant amount of interest income derived from
certain investments and loans that are exempt (net of the disallowance of
related expenses attributable to the exempt income) under Puerto Rico income
tax law. Refer to Note 12 of the consolidated financial statements for the
reconciliation between the maximum statutory tax rate and the effective tax
rate as well as for other relevant income tax information
PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES
Provision for loan losses in fiscal 2000 totaled $8.2 million, 43.7% lower
than the $14.5 million posted during fiscal 1999. The decline was responds to
the lower level of net credit losses (down 7.3%) and non-performing loans
(down 24.1%), and to the subsequent divestiture of the high-risk loan
portfolios (leasing and personal unsecured). This reduction is also
associated with the adoption of more stringent underwriting standards, as
well as to the new emphasis on secured personal lending instead of unsecured.
Please refer to the allowance for loan losses and non-performing assets
section below for a more detailed analysis of the allowances for loan losses,
net credit losses and credit quality statistics.
RESTATEMENT
In August 1998 an employee of Oriental admitted that he had been involved in
a scheme to embezzle funds belonging to Oriental for the previous three (3)
years. He admitted that he had been manipulating and altering various books
and records of the company and intentionally failing to perform reliable
account analyses and reconciliations. After firing the employee, the company
began an internal investigation assisted by its legal counsel and reported
the activity to appropriate regulatory authorities and its fidelity insurance
carrier.
During the course of the investigation in fiscal 1999, Oriental discovered
that certain other employees had altered various books and records of the
company and failed to perform appropriate reconciliations. It also reported
those items to the regulatory authorities and to the fidelity insurance
carrier. As a result of this discovery, the company broadened the scope of
its internal investigation and, in May 1999, engaged its independent
accountants to assist it.
Based upon the additional information discovered in the investigation,
Oriental filed initial claims with its fidelity insurance carrier for losses
in the aggregate amount of $488,194 during the second quarter of fiscal 2000.
During the third quarter of fiscal 2000, Oriental reported its
discovery of additional alterations of records and deletions of
reconciliation items to the regulatory authorities and its fidelity insurance
carrier and then filed with the fidelity insurance carrier claims for
recovery of losses relating to these irregularities in the amount of
approximately $9.0 million.
In its interim report on Form 10-Q for the third quarter of 2000, Oriental
reported that it had discovered those $9.5 million ($5.8 million net of tax)
of losses resulting from the dishonest and fraudulent acts and omissions of
several former employees. In addition, it stated that, in consultation with
legal counsel, it had concluded that the losses were covered by Oriental's
fidelity insurance policy and recovery was considered highly probable.
In July 2000, Oriental's fidelity insurance carrier notified Oriental that it
was denying all of the filed claims. This denial triggered Oriental's
decision to restate its financial statements. Thereafter, Oriental continued
its investigation primarily to determine how the losses should be allocated
to prior financial statements. Oriental filed a legal action against the
insurance carrier as explained on Note 15 to the consolidated financial
statements.
In October 2000, Oriental announced that it had completed the investigation
and identified total charges of $12.7 million, net of tax effect. This amount
includes the $900 thousand (net of tax) loss relating to the contract to sell
the consumer loans and lease portfolios. With the assistance of its
independent accountants, Oriental determined that $9.6 million (net of tax)
of the $12.7 million charges was related to events in prior fiscal years and
thus would require restatement of previous financial statements. The
remaining $3.1 million ($12.7 million less the $9.6 million restatement, both
net of tax) was charged in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2000. A
significant portion ($5.8 million, net of taxes) of the $9.6 million
requiring restatement is related to the previously disclosed losses arising
from the former employees' actions and affects fiscal year 1998 and prior
periods.
The $9.6 million charges are recognized as follows, net of tax:
- $5.6 million against beginning retained earnings for fiscal 1998.
- $2.1 million against earnings of fiscal 1998.
- $1.9 million against earnings of fiscal 1999.
- $31,000 and $159,000 against the first and second quarters of fiscal 2000,
respectively.
- A favorable $30,000 increase to the third quarter of fiscal year 2000.
Furthermore, it was determined that additional closing adjustments of $2.1
million (net of tax) were necessary, though not related to the matter
discussed above. Approximately $1.8 million, net of tax, of these additional
items affects fiscal year 2000 -- $673,000 in the first quarter, $504,000 in
the second quarter and $588,000 in the third quarter, respectively. Fiscal
1999 earnings were affected by $224,000, a credit of $53,000 was made to 1998
earnings, and a charge of $178,000 was made against the beginning retained
earnings of fiscal year 1998 (all items net of tax).
Additionally, a $2.2 million favorable tax adjustment related to fiscal year
1999 was also identified.
Therefore, the restatement (net of tax) to previously issued financial
statements will be:
- $5.8 million against beginning retained earnings for fiscal 1998.
- $2 million against earnings of fiscal 1998.
- A favorable $58,000 increase to fiscal year 1999 earnings.
- $704,000, $663,000 and $558,000 against the first, second and third
quarter earnings of fiscal year 2000, respectively.
The effect of the restatement on the Consolidated Statement of Income for
fiscal years 1999 and 1998 is as follows:

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
As discussed above, The Group's management has the responsibility for
establishing the allowance for loan losses and for determining that the
allowance is adequate to absorb probable and inherent losses in the loan
portfolio at each reporting date. For this purpose, management employs a
systematic methodology to estimate the allowance, which incorporates
quantitative and qualitative factors.
The principal factors that the Group uses to determine the level of allowance
for loan losses are the Group's historical and current credit loss
experience. These factors are combined with qualitative factors such as: the
growth of the loan portfolio, concentrations of credit (e.g., local
industries, etc.) that might affect loss experience across one or more
components of the portfolio, delinquencies, effects of any changes in lending
policies and procedures (including underwriting standards), collections,
general economic conditions and unusual events such as hurricanes.
This methodology that the Group uses follows a loan credit risk rating
process that involves dividing loans into risk categories. The following are
the credit risk categories (established by the FDIC Interagency Policy
Statement of 1993) used:
1. PASS - loans considered highly collectible due to their repayment history
or current status (to be in this category a loan cannot be than 90 days past
due).
2. SPECIAL MENTION - loans with potential weaknesses that deserve
management's close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses
may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects of the loan.
3. SUBSTANDARD - loans inadequately protected by the current net worth and
paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. They are
characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain
some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
4. DOUBTFUL - loans that have all the weaknesses inherent in substandard,
with the added characteristic that collection or liquidation in full is
highly questionable and improbable.
5. LOSS - loans considered uncollectible and of such little value that their
continuance as bankable assets is not warranted.
Based on this loan credit risk rating (primarily based on aging), the Group
applies an overall reserve percentage to each of the portfolio's aging
category based on historical credit losses adjusted for current or expected
conditions and trends. This delinquency-based calculation is the starting
point for management's determination of the required level of the allowance
for loan losses. Other data considered in this determination includes:
1. vintage analysis generated from the credit scoring system, which
provides a history of credit losses by credit score strata and loss
projections for the remaining portfolio based on that history;
2. overall historical loss trends (one year and three years); and
3. other information including underwriting standards, economic trends
and unusual events such as hurricanes.
Loan loss ratios applied and credit risk categories, are updated on an annual
basis and are applied in the context of accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States ("GAAP") and the Joint Interagency Guidance on
the importance of depository institutions having prudent, conservative, but
not excessive loan loss allowances that fall within an acceptable range of
estimated losses. While management uses available information in estimating
possible loan losses, future changes to the allowance may be necessary based
on factors beyond the Group's control, such as factors affecting general
economic conditions in Puerto Rico.
At June 30, 2000, the Group's allowance for loan losses amounted to $6.8
million (1.12% of total loans) versus $9.0 million (1.56% of total loans) a
year earlier. The decrease in the allowance and its loan coverage ratio was
directly related to the divestiture of higher-risk loan portfolios (leasing
and personal unsecured). As a result of this sale (completed on July 7, 2000;
see notes to the consolidated financial statements), most of the Group's
remaining loan portfolio is now comprised of well-secured real estate loans
(which have almost no credit loss experience). This improves the Group's
asset quality, which reduces both the credit loss exposure and amount of
allowance necessary to absorb inherent losses in the loan portfolio.
Net credit losses for fiscal year 2000 totaled $10.3 million (1.79% of
average loans). This represents a 7.3% improvement versus $11.1 million
(1.94% of average loans) in fiscal year 1999. The lower level of net credit
losses experienced during fiscal 2000 was primarily associated with a
significant improvement in net credit losses from leases. Tables 5
and 6 set forth an analysis of activity in the allowance for loan losses and
presents selected loan loss statistics.
In fiscal 2000, net credit losses from consumer loans totaled $5.8 million
(4.64% of average consumer loans), 14.2% higher than $5 million (4.05% of
average consumer loans) in fiscal 1999. The increase was primarily due to the
high level of personal bankruptcies in Puerto Rico combined with the growth
of the personal unsecured portfolio.
Personal bankruptcies rose again in Puerto Rico during fiscal 2000, after
slightly dropping in fiscal 1999, which is better described as a
stabilization of new cases from the explosive rise experienced in 1998. As a
response, during the second quarter of fiscal 2000 management changed its
lending strategy toward loans collaterized by real estate. In addition, in
June 2000 management agreed to sell the personal unsecured and leasing
portfolios. A contract to sell these loans was signed with another
institution during the month of June 2000 and the transaction was completed
on July 7, 2000. This sale is expected to improve the Group's asset quality
and to protect its future earnings capacity. It also enables the Group to
concentrate on trust, money management, brokerage, mortgage originations,
secured personal lending and deposit accounts with the highest earnings
potential.
Net credit losses from leases totaled $3.4 million (3.60% of average leases)
in fiscal 2000, 42.6% lower than $6 million (4.83% of average leases) a year
earlier. This significant improvement was the positive result from tighter
underwriting standards and collection procedures implemented last year in the
leasing area. In addition, it demonstrates the purging of the lease portfolio
throughout fiscal 1999 due to unprecedented levels of personal bankruptcies
and Hurricane Georges (which hit Puerto Rico in September 1998) adversely
affecting the island's consumer economy.
Commercial and other (mainly overdrafts) net credit losses increased to $1.1
million in fiscal 2000, from $89,000 in fiscal 1999. Real estate loans net
credit losses totaled $28,000 versus a $14,000 net credit gain in fiscal 1999.
NON-PERFORMING ASSETS
The Group's non-performing assets include non-performing loans, foreclosed real
estate owned and other repossessed assets (see Table 8). At June 30, 2000, the
Group's asset quality improved as non-performing assets totaled $17.8 million
(0.96% of total assets) versus $20.4 million (1.30% of total assets) at the end
of fiscal 1999. The decrease was principally due to a lower level of
non-performing loans, mainly non-performing real estate loans and financing
leases. This improvement stems from tighter underwriting standards and
collection procedures implemented, as previously explained.
At June 30, 2000, the allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans
coverage ratio was 40.52% (46.06% in 1999). However, excluding the lower-risk
real estate mortgage loans, the ratio comes to a much more comfortable 82.15%
(92.23% in 1999). Detailed information concerning each of the items that
comprise non-performing assets follows:

process of collection, and are charged-off based on the specific evaluation
of the underlying collateral. At June 30, 2000, the Group's non-performing
real estate loans totaled $8.6 million (50.7% of the Group's non-performing
loans). Non-performing loans in this category are primarily residential
mortgage loans. Based on the value of the underlying collateral and the
loan-to-value ratios, management believes that no significant losses will be
incurred on this portfolio.
Commercial business loans are placed on non-accrual basis when they become 90
days or more past due and are charged-off based on the specific evaluation of
the collateral underlying the loan. At June 30, 2000, the Group's non-performing
commercial business loans amounted to $901,000 (9.1% of the Group's
non-performing loans). Of the total balance, $836,000 (8 loans) is guaranteed by
real estate.
Finance leases are placed on non-accrual status when they become 90 days past
due unless well secured by collateral. At June 30, 2000, the Group's
non-performing auto and equipment leases portfolio amounted to $5.9 million
(34.8% of the Group's total non-performing loans). The underlying collateral
secures these financing leases, mainly consist of vehicles.
Consumer loans are placed on non-accrual status when they become 90 days past
due and charged-off when payments are delinquent by 120 days. This write-off
policy (which follows the guidelines established by the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation's Uniform Retail Credit Classification and Account
Management Policies), was adopted in fiscal 1998. Consumer net credit losses for
fiscal 1999 included $1.7 million as a result of this change. At June 30, 2000,
the Group's non-performing consumer loans amounted to $1.5 million (9.1% of the
Group's total non-performing loans).
Foreclosed real estate is initially recorded at the lower of the related loan
balance or fair value at the date of foreclosure and any excess of the loan
balance over the estimated fair market value of the property is charged
against the allowance for loan losses. Subsequently, any excess of the
carrying value over the estimated fair market value less disposal cost is
charged to operations. Management actively seeks prospective buyers for these
foreclosed real estate properties.
Other repossessed assets are initially recorded at estimated net realizable
value. At June 30, 2000, the inventory of repossessed automobiles consisted
of 32 units amounting to $551,638 ($17,240 average per unit).
FINANCIAL CONDITION
GROUP'S ASSETS
At June 30, 2000, the Group's total assets totaled $1.851 billion, up 17.6%
when compared to $1.574 billion a year ago. At the same date,
interest-earning assets reached $1.781 billion (96.2% of total assets), up
17.5% versus $1.515 billion (96.3% of total assets) a year earlier. An
expansion in the Group's investment portfolio, particularly mortgage-backed
securities, made both increases possible. (see Table 10).
Investments (Oriental's largest interest-earning assets component) mainly
consists of money market investments, U.S. Treasury notes, U.S. Government
agencies bonds, mortgage-backed securities, CMO's and P. R. Government municipal
bonds. At June 30, 2000, the Group's investment portfolio is of high quality.
Approximately 98% is rated AAA and it generates a significant amount of
tax-exempt interest which lowers the Group's effective tax rate (see Table 10
and Note 3 of the attached Consolidated Financial Statements).
The Group continued to experience a significant growth in investments during
fiscal 2000, which grew to $1.179 billion, up 24.6% from $946.4 million a year
earlier. This growth was concentrated in mortgage-backed securities, followed by
increases in U.S. and P.R. Government securities. Mortgage-backed securities
rose 26.7% to $882.5 million (74.8% of the total portfolio) from $696.3 million
(73.6% of the total portfolio) the year before, as Oriental continued its
strategy of pooling residential real estate loans into mortgage-backed
securities. U.S. and P.R. Government securities increased 25.5% to $262.4
million (22.2% of the total portfolio) from $209.1 million (22.1% of the total
portfolio) reported for fiscal year 1999.
At June 30, 2000, Oriental's loan portfolio, the second largest category of
the Group's interest-earning assets, amounted to $607.7 million, up 5.2% from
the $577.7 million reported a year ago. Expansions of the real estate and
commercial loans portfolios led this increase. Table 10 presents the Group's
loan portfolio composition and mix at the end of the periods analyzed. See
also note 6 of the attached Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Group's real estate loan portfolio is mainly comprised of residential
loans, home equity loans and personal loans collateralized by real estate. At
June 30, 2000, the real estate loan portfolio amounted to $387.6 million
(63.8% of the loan total portfolio), a 15.8% increase when compared to $334.6
million (57.9% of the loan's portfolio) a year earlier. This growth was
achieved despite the sale of over $85 million in residential loans as
management took advantage of market conditions to convert mortgage loans into
mortgage-backed securities.

The growth was primarily associated with the Group's new emphasis on personal
secured lending (in December 1999, Oriental changed its loans origination
strategy towards well-secured loans, primarily residential loans and personal
loans with mortgage collateral).
During fiscal 2000, the Group reinforced its commercial banking department
to offer collaterized loans to its business customers. This has already
started to show positive results as the commercial loans portfolio at June
30, 2000 totaled $24.1 million (4% of the loan portfolio), an increase of
128.5% compared to the $10.5 million reported a year ago.
At June 30, 2000, the consumer loans portfolio (excluding loans held-for-sale
(see Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements), which mainly
includes margin loans, cash collateral loans and credit lines, totaled $19.7
million (3.2% of the Group's loan portfolio). This represents a 83.9%
decrease when compared to the $122.2 million (21% of the Group's loan
portfolio) a year ago. The divestiture of the unsecured personal loans
portfolio was the main reason for this decline. During the last quarter of
fiscal year 2000 the management decided to sell the unsecured personal
portfolio to improve its asset quality and focus available resources in more
profitable business lines as explained above. These loans were included in
other loans under a contract to sell (loans held-for-sale) as the final
divestiture was settled during the first week of July 2000.
LIABILITIES AND FUNDING SOURCES
At June 30, 2000, Oriental's total liabilities reached $1.733 billion, 18.3%
higher than the $1.464 billion reported a year earlier. Interest-bearing
liabilities, the Group's funding sources, amounted to $1.696 billion at the
end of fiscal 2000 versus $1.425 billion the year before, a 19.1% increase. A
rise in deposit accounts, (mainly IRA deposit accounts) and in borrowed funds
(mainly repurchase agreements) drove this growth. Please refer to Table 11
for Liabilities summary and composition.
Borrowings are Oriental's largest interest-bearing liability component. It
consists mainly of diversified funding sources through the use of Federal Home
Loan Bank of New York (FHLB) advances and borrowings, repurchase agreements,
term notes, notes payable and lines of credit. At June 30, 2000, they amounted
to $973 million, 26.2% higher than the $771.1 million a year ago. This increase
reflects a strong growth of 36.9% in repurchase agreements, which reached $816.5
million compared to $596.2 million reported a year ago. This was necessary to
fund the increase in interest-earning assets experienced during the period,
particularly investment securities. The FHLB system functions as a source of
credit to financial institutions that are members of a regional Federal Home
Loan Bank. As a member of the FHLB, the Group can obtain advances from the FHLB,
secured by the FHLB stock owned by the Group as well as by certain of the
Group's mortgages and investment securities. Table 11 presents the composition
of the Group's other borrowings at the end of the periods analyzed.
At June 30, 2000, deposits, the second largest category of the Group's
interest-bearing liabilities and a cost-effective source of funding, reached
$723.6 million, up 10.3% versus the $655.8 million a year ago. A $79.3
million increase (15.6%) on time deposits and IRA accounts ($63.3 million
solely on IRA Accounts) is responsible for most of the growth. This was
partially offset by a decrease of $10.7 million (7.5%) in demand and savings
deposits. Table 11 presents the composition of the Group's deposits at the
end of the fiscal year 2000.
STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY AND DIVIDENDS
At June 30, 2000, Oriental's total stockholders' equity reached $117.9
million, an increase of 1.4% compared to $116.3 million a year ago. The book
value per share increased to $6.84 versus $6.45 a year ago, despite the
repurchases of $3.7 million in treasury stock over the last 12 months, and a
$4.8 million unfavorable turnaround in the fair value of securities
available-for-sale (included as part of accumulated other comprehensive
loss). For more on the changes in the Group's stockholders'equity, refer to
the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Stockholders' Equity and
Comprehensive Income included in the attached Consolidated Financial
Statements.
During fiscal year 2000, the Group repurchased 204,000 common shares bringing
to 1.108 million shares (with a cost of $27.1 million) the number of shares
held by the Group's treasury. The Group's common stock is traded in the New
York Stock Exchange (NYSE) under the symbol OFG. At June 30, 2000, the
Group's market value for its outstanding stock was $183.3 million ($14.44 per
share) versus $309.6 million ($24.13 per share) a year earlier. During fiscal
2000, the Group declared dividends amounting to $7.7 million ($0.600 per
share) compared to $7.4 million ($0.563 per share) in fiscal 1999, up 3.9%.
For fiscal 2000, the dividend payout ratio and dividend yield were 50.36% and
2.99%, respectively, compared to 28.02% and 1.94%, respectively, in the
preceding fiscal year.
Under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, banks and bank
holding companies which meet or exceed a Tier I risk-based ratio of 6%, a total
capital risk-based ratio of 10% and a leverage ratio of 5% are considered well
capitalized. As shown on Table 12, the Group significantly exceeds those
regulatory risk-based capital requirements, due to the high level of capital and
the conservative nature of the Group's assets.

GROUP'S FINANCIAL ASSETS
As shown on Table 13, the Group`s total financial assets include both the
Group's assets and client assets managed by the trust and brokerage business. As
of June 30, 2000, they reached $4.222 billion - up 10% from $3.840 billion a
year ago. The Group's financial assets main component are assets owned by the
Group, of which about 99% are owned by the Group's banking subsidiary. For more
on this financial asset component, refer to Group's Assets under Financial
Condition.
Oriental's second largest financial assets component are assets managed by the
trust. The Group's trust division offers various different types of IRA products
and manages 401(K) and Keogh retirement plans, custodian and corporate trust
accounts. At June 30, 2000, total assets managed by the Group's trust division
amounted $1.456 billion, 5.5% higher than the $1.380 billion a year ago. This
increase was fueled by a solid growth in individual retirement accounts (IRA),
the most significant asset managed, which totaled $585 million (up 11%) versus
the $527.1 million a year ago.
The other financial asset component are assets gathered by the broker-dealer.
The Group's broker-dealer subsidiary offers a wide array of investment
alternatives to its client's base such as fixed and variable annuities,
tax-advantaged fixed income securities, mutual funds, stocks and bonds. At June
30, 2000, total assets gathered by the broker-dealer from its customer
investment accounts reached $914.9 million, up 3.3% from $885.8 million a year
ago.
YEAR 2000 READINESS DISCLOSURE
The millennium date change did not cause any critical problems to the Group's
computers and management information systems, which already had been tested and
fully certified as being Y2K compliant under regulatory guidelines.
SELECTED QUARTERLY FINANCIAL DATA
The Table 14 sets forth selected unaudited quarterly information. In
management's opinion, all adjustments necessary to fairly present the results
of operations of such periods are reflected therein. As disclosed in the
restatement section at page F-7 and Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial
Statements, the financial information for each of the quarters of fiscal 1999
and the first 3 quarters of fiscal 2000 reported in the respective Form
10-Q's were restated.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
MARKET RISK
Market risk is defined as the risk of losses arising from adverse changes in
market valuations which arise from interest rate risk, foreign currency exchange
rate risk, commodity price risk, and equity price risk. The Group's primary
market risk is interest rate risk.
ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT
The Group's asset/liability management is the responsibility of the Asset and
Liability Management Committee ("ALCO"), which reports to the Board of Directors
and is composed of members of the Group's senior management. The principal
objective of ALCO is to enhance profitability while maintaining an appropriate
level of interest rate and liquidity risks. ALCO is also involved in formulating
economic projections and strategies used by the Group in its planning and
budgeting process; and oversees the Group's sources, uses and pricing of funds.
In addition, the Group uses an external consultant to evaluate and monitor its
asset/liability position.
The Group has a formal system for interest rate risk management, one that
monitors the Group's interest rate risk position primarily through computer
simulations of the effect of rising and falling interest rates on net interest
income. Two sets of simulations are carried out, both of which cover a two year
time horizon: one assuming a flat balance sheet with a constant asset/liability
mix and another assuming a balance sheet which grows according to expected loan
originations and funding. These simulations also incorporate expected changes in
prepayment rates as interest rates rise or fall, repricing characteristics of
variable rate assets and liabilities, current and expected lending rates,
funding sources and costs. Other factors, which may be potentially important in
determining the future growth of net interest income (i.e., planned
securitizations and liquidity requirements), are considered in these
simulations. The Group also uses one-year GAP analysis as a secondary technique
for evaluating interest rate risk.
The Group's interest rate risk position is measured on a quarterly basis and is
evaluated by ALCO, which is in charge, among other things, of informing both the
Group's management and Board of Directors as to the current levels of interest
rate risk and, when necessary, managing the repricing of the Group's assets,
liabilities and off-balance sheet contracts to maintain that risk at reasonable
and prudent levels.

The Group's interest rate risk policy has been approved by the Board of
Directors and establishes guidelines for tolerance levels for net portfolio
value changes based on interest rate volatility. Management has maintained the
portfolio within these established tolerances.
INTEREST RATE RISK AND SENSITIVITY
The Group's profitability depends largely on its net interest income, which is
the difference between its interest income on its interest-earning assets and
its interest expense on its interest-bearing liabilities. Like most financial
institutions, changes in general interest rate levels and other economic factors
affect the Group's profitability. If there is a mismatch between the dollar
amount of repricing or maturing assets (such as loans) and liabilities (such as
time deposits), a financial institution is said to have an "interest rate
sensitivity gap." A financial institution's interest rate risk arises from an
interest rate sensitivity gap. Financial institutions measure this interest rate
risk in terms of the ratio of the interest rate sensitivity gap to the
institution's total assets. If more assets reprice or mature over a given time
frame than liabilities, the financial institution is considered
"asset-sensitive." This risk is reflected as a positive gap. Conversely, if more
liabilities reprice or mature over a given time frame than assets, the financial
institution will be considered "liability-sensitive." This risk is reflected as
a negative gap.
An asset-sensitive position (a positive gap) will generally enhance earnings in
a rising interest rate environment (because more interest-earning assets will be
repriced or replaced at higher interest rates than interest-paying liabilities).
In a falling interest rate environment, an asset-sensitive position will
generally negatively affect earnings (since more interest-earning assets will be
repriced or replaced at lower interest rates than interest-bearing liabilities).
Conversely, a liability-sensitive position (a negative gap) will generally
enhance earnings in a falling interest rate environment (more interest-bearing
liabilities are replaced or repriced at lower rates than interest-earning
assets) and negatively impact earnings in a rising interest rate environment
(more interest-bearing liabilities will be replaced or repriced at higher rates
than interest-earning assets).
The Group has liability-sensitive position, due to its fixed rate and
medium-term asset composition (mainly real estate loans and mortgage-backed
securities) being funded with shorter-term repricing liabilities (mainly
repurchase agreements). To mitigate this mismatch and related inherent risks,
the Group has continued its efforts to expand its core deposit base by bidding
aggressively for IRA accounts (long-term time deposits). In addition, the Group
uses interest rate swaps and caps as a hedging mechanism to offset said mismatch
and control interest rate risk exposures with the swaps, the Group pays a fixed
annual cost and receives a floating ninety-day payment based on LIBOR. Floating
rate payments received from the swap counterpart correspond to the floating rate
payments made on the borrowings or notes thus resulting in a net fixed rate cost
to the Group. Interest rate caps provide protection against increases in
interest rates above cap rates.
At June 30, 2000, the Group had a one-year negative cumulative gap of $275.1
million or 12%. This negative one year gap position, as noted in the table
below, has a negative impact on the Group's earnings in a rising interest rate
environment. As discussed in the asset/liability section above, the Group uses
simulations to measure the effects of changing interest rates on net interest
income. Presented below is the Group's interest rate risk exposure at June 30,
2000 based on the aforementioned analysis. Table 15 measures changes in net
interest income in 200 basis point increments up or down.
These simulations assume gradual upward or downward movements of interest rates
over one year, with the change totaling 200 basis points at the end of the
twelve-month period. The balance sheet is divided into groups of similar assets
and liabilities in order to simplify the process of carrying out these
projections. As interest rates rise or fall, these simulations incorporate
expected future lending rates, current and expected future funding sources and
cost, the possible exercise of options, liquidity requirements, and other
factors which may be important in determining the future growth of net interest
income. Only interest income is included in these projections; profits on the
sale of assets are excluded.
These simulations are highly complex, and they use many simplifying assumptions
which are intended to reflect the general behavior of the Group over the period
in question, but there can be no assurance that actual events will parallel
these assumptions in all cases. For this reason, the results of these
simulations are only approximations of the true sensitivity of net interest
income to changes in market interest rates.
In addition, the Group's management may take anticipatory or reactive measures
in response to changes in interest rates that are not reflected in the interest
rate sensitivity calculation. While the Group has attempted to structure its
asset and liability management strategies to mitigate the impact on net interest
income of changes in market interest rates, there is no assurance that these
strategies will be successful.

LIQUIDITY RISK MANAGEMENT
Liquidity refers to the level of cash, eligible investments easily converted
into cash and lines of credit available to meet unanticipated requirements. The
objective of the Group's liquidity management is to meet operating expenses and
ensure sufficient cash flow to fund the origination and acquisition of assets,
the repayment of deposit withdrawals and the maturities of borrowings. Other
objectives pursued in the Group's liquidity management are the diversification
of funding sources and the control of interest rate risk. Management tries to
diversify the sources of financing used by the Group to avoid undue reliance on
any particular source.
The Group's principal sources of funds are net deposit inflows, loan repayments,
mortgage-backed and investment securities principal and interest payments,
reverse repurchase agreements, FHLB advances and other borrowings. The Group has
obtained long-term funding through the issuance of notes and long-term reverse
repurchase agreements. The Group's principal uses of funds are the origination
and purchase of loans, the purchase of mortgage-backed and investment
securities, the repayment of maturing deposits and borrowings. A summary of the
Group's consolidated cash flows is set forth in Table 16.
Cash flows from operations provided inflows in each of the years in the
three-year period ending June 30, 2000. Cash flows from operations during fiscal
2000 decreased versus fiscal 1999 due to the smaller volume of loans
held-for-sale sales ($27.8 million versus $92.9 million), enhanced by an
increase in trading securities purchases. Cash flows from operations rose during
fiscal 1999 compared to fiscal 1998. This was primarily associated to proceeds
generated from the higher activity of held-for-sale mortgage loans ($92 million
versus $57.9 million) and trading securities (positive inflow of $25.1 million
versus a negative effect of $14.2 million in fiscal 1998).
Cash used by investing activities decreased during 2000 when compared to 1999.
This was mainly due to the lower purchases of securities ($385.7 million versus
$518.4 million in fiscal 1999). During fiscal 1998, they grew compared to 1997.
The increase primarily resulted from higher loan funding and greater amount of
securities purchases.
Cash provided by financing activities decreased during fiscal 2000 compared to
fiscal 1999. The decrease primarily resulted from higher amount of dividends
paid in fiscal 2000 ($10.1 million versus $7.3 million, compounded by the $32.3
million in proceeds in May 1999 from the issuance of the preferred stock. These
were partially offset by increased securities sold under agreements to
repurchase borrowings. Cash provided by financing activities increased in fiscal
1999 versus fiscal 1998. The increase primarily resulted from the net proceeds
of the issuance of preferred shares and the larger amount funds captured by
securities sold under agreements to repurchase.
At June 30, 2000, the Group's liquidity was deemed appropriate. At such date the
Group's liquid assets amounted to $1.273 billion, this includes $63 million
available from unused lines of credit with other financial institutions and
$102.3 million of borrowing potential with the FHLB. The Group's liquidity
position is reviewed and monitored by the ALCO Committee on a regular basis.
Management believes that the Group will continue to maintain adequate liquidity
levels in the future.
IMPACT OF INFLATION AND CHANGES IN PRICES
The financial statements and related financial data and notes presented herein
have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, which require the measurement of
financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars, without
considering changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to
inflation.
Unlike most industrial companies, virtually all of the assets and liabilities of
the Group are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a more
significant impact on the Group's performance than the effects of general price
levels. Although interest rates generally move in the same direction as
inflation, the magnitude of such changes varies. The possible effect of
fluctuating interest rates is discussed more fully under the previous section
entitled "Interest Risk and Asset Liability Management".

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
----------------------------------------------------
The accounting and reporting policies of the Oriental Financial Group Inc.
(the "Group" or, "Oriental") conform with accounting principles generally
accepted in the U.S.A. ("GAAP") and with financial services industry
practices. The following is a description of the Group's most significant
accounting policies:
NATURE OF OPERATIONS
The Group is a bank holding company incorporated under the laws of the
Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. It has two subsidiaries, Oriental Bank and Trust
(the "Bank"), and Oriental Financial Services Corp. (the "Oriental Financial
Services"). Through these subsidiaries, the Group provides a wide range of
financial services such as mortgage, commercial and consumer lending, financial
planning, money management and investment brokerage services, as well as
corporate and individual trust services. Note 17 to the consolidated financial
statements present further information as to the nature of operations of the
Group's business segments.
Both the Group and Bank main offices are located in San Juan, Puerto Rico. The
Bank operates through nineteen branches located throughout the island and is
subject to the supervision, examination and regulation of the Office of the
Commissioner of Financial Institutions of Puerto Rico and the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation (FDIC), which insures its deposits through the Savings
Association Insurance Fund (SAIF).
RESTATEMENT
Financial data for 1999 and prior years have been restated, as applicable,
as discussed in Note 2.
USE OF ESTIMATES IN THE PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires
management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities as of the date of the financial statements. These estimates and
assumptions also affect the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
the Group and its subsidiaries. All material intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Group considers as cash
equivalents all money market instruments with maturities of three months or less
at the date of acquisition.
INCOME PER COMMON SHARE
Basic earnings per share excludes potential dilution and is calculated by
dividing net income available to common shares (net income reduced by
dividends on preferred stock) by the weighted average number of outstanding
common shares. Diluted earnings per share is similar to the computation of
basic earnings per share except that the weighted average common shares are
increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have
been outstanding if the dilutive potential common shares had been issued. Any
stock splits are retroactively recognized in all periods presented in the
financial statements.
SECURITIES PURCHASED / SOLD UNDER AGREEMENTS TO RESELL / REPURCHASE
The Group purchases securities under agreements to resell the same or similar
securities. Amounts advanced under these agreements represent short-term
loans and are reflected as assets in the statements of financial condition.
It is the Group's policy to take possession of securities purchased under
resale agreements while the counterparty retains effective control over the
securities. The Group monitors the market value of the underlying
securities as compared to the related receivable, including accrued interest,
and requests additional collateral when deemed appropriate. Also, the Group
sells securities under agreements to repurchase the same or similar
securities. The Group retains control over the securities sold under these
agreements, accordingly, such agreements are treated as financing agreements,
and the obligations to repurchase the securities sold are reflected as a
liability. The securities underlying the financing agreements remain included
in the asset accounts.
F - 24
<PAGE>
INVESTMENT SECURITIES
The Group's securities are classified as held-to-maturity, available-for-sale or
trading. Securities for which the Group has the positive intent and ability to
hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity and are carried at amortized
cost. Securities that might be sold prior to maturity because of interest rate
changes, to meet liquidity needs, or to better match the repricing
characteristics of funding sources are classified as available-for-sale. These
securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded
from earnings and reported net of deferred taxes in other comprehensive income.
The Group classifies as trading those securities that are acquired and held
principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term. These securities
are carried at estimated fair value with realized and unrealized changes in
fair value included in earnings on the period in which the changes occur.
Interest revenue arising from trading instruments is included in the statement
of income as part of interest income.
The Group's investment in the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) of New York stock
has no readily determinable fair value and can only be sold back to the FHLB at
par value. Therefore, this investment is carried at cost and its redemption
value represents its fair value.
Premiums and discounts are amortized to interest income over the life of the
related securities using the interest method. Net realized gains or losses on
sales of investment securities and unrealized loss valuation adjustments
considered other than temporary, if any, on securities classified as either
available-for-sale or held-to-maturity are reported separately in the statement
of income. The cost of securities sold is determined on the specific
identification method.
INTEREST RATE RISK MANAGEMENT
The Group enters into interest rate exchange agreements in the form of swaps
and caps to manage its interest rate risk exposure. Interest rate swaps and
caps are not recognized in the consolidated statement of financial condition
and are not marked-to-market. The net effect of amounts to be paid or
received under interest rate swaps is recorded as an adjustment to interest
expense in the period in which realized. Premiums on caps are amortized over
the term of the contract. Income or expenses arising from the instruments are
recorded in the category appropriate to the related asset or liability.
Swap and cap agreements are designated at inception by the Group's Asset
Liability Management Committee ("ALCO") as hedges of the Group's interest rate
risk arising from the repricing of repurchase agreements, the Group's main
source of short-term borrowing, as well as from certain floating rate advances
and notes payable. The floating rate side of the swap and cap agreements is
generally 90 days LIBOR-based, which directly correlates with the repricing
basis of the repurchase agreements. As part of its periodic assessment of the
Group's interest rate risk management strategy, ALCO also monitors the
effectiveness of the swap and cap agreements.
In the event that the criteria for hedge accounting (risk reduction,
designation, correlation and effectiveness) are not met or if the hedged item
matures or is sold, the derivative contract would be marked to market and any
gain or loss would be recognized in the period it occurs. In the event of a
termination of a derivative contract designated as a hedge, any gain or loss
would be deferred and amortized over the remaining term of the original
derivative contract or the item hedged.
MORTGAGE BANKING ACTIVITIES AND LOANS HELD-FOR-SALE
From time to time, if conditions so warrant, the Group may sell loans to
other financial institutions or securitize conforming mortgage loans into
GNMA, FNMA and FHLMC certificates. Mortgages included in the resulting GNMA,
FNMA and FHLMC pools are serviced by another institution. These mortgage and
other loans intended for sale are stated at the lower of cost or market and
are reported as loans held-for-sale. When these loans are sold or securitized
into mortgage-backed securities, a gain or loss is recognized to the extent
that the fair value of the securities or cash received exceeds, or is less
than, the carrying value of the loans sold.
Servicing rights on mortgage loans held by the Group are sold to another
financial institution. The gain on the sale of these rights is determined by
allocating the total cost of mortgage loans to be sold to the mortgage
servicing rights and the loans (without the mortgage servicing rights), based
on their relative fair values. This gain is deferred and amortized over the
expected life of the loan, unless the loans are sold at which time the
deferred gain is taken into income.
F - 25
<PAGE>
LOANS AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
Loans are stated at their outstanding principal balance, less undisbursed
portion, unearned interest and allowance for loan losses. Loan origination fees
and costs are deferred and amortized over the estimated life of the loans as an
adjustment of yield using the interest method. Unearned interest on installment
loans is recognized as income under a method which approximates the interest
method. Interest on loans not made on a discounted basis is credited to income
based on the loan principal outstanding at stated interest rates.
Recognition of interest is discontinued when loans are 90 days or more in
arrears on principal and interest, except for well collaterized real estate
loans where recognition is discontinued when other factors indicate that
collection of interest or principal is doubtful. Loans for which the recognition
of interest income has been discontinued are designated as non-accruing. Such
loans are not reinstated to accrual status until interest is received on a
current basis and other factors indicative of doubtful collection cease to
exist.
The Group provides allowances for estimated loan losses based on an evaluation
of the risk characteristics of the loan portfolio, loss experience, economic
conditions and other pertinent factors. Loan losses are charged and recoveries
are credited to the allowance for loan losses.
The Group measures the impairment of a loan based on the present value of
expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, or
as a practical expedient, at the observable market price of the loan or the fair
value of the collateral, if the loan is collateral dependent. Loans are
individually evaluated for impairment, except large groups of small balance,
homogeneous loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment and for leases
and loans that are recorded at fair value or at the lower of cost or market. The
Group measures for impairment all commercial loans over $250,000. The portfolios
of mortgage and consumer loans and auto loans and leases are considered
homogeneous and are evaluated collectively for impairment.
SALE OF THE MORTGAGE SERVICING PORTFOLIO
In early fiscal 1998, the Group sold its mortgage servicing portfolio to a
local mortgage banking institution. At the date of this transaction, the
underlying principal balance of the mortgages in the servicing portfolio and
related servicing rights amounted to approximately $550,000,000 and
$6,121,000, respectively. The Group recorded a net gain of $3.5 million
(after restatment) on this transaction. The mortgage servicing portfolio had
generated servicing fees of $713,000 before its was sold.
PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT
Premises and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation.
Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated
useful life of each type of asset. Amortization of leasehold improvements is
computed using the straight-line method over the terms of the leases or
estimated useful lives of the improvements, whichever are shorter.
Long-lived assets and identifiable intangibles related to those assets to be
held and used, except for financial instruments, and mortgage and other
servicing rights, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be
recoverable. There were no impairment losses in fiscal years 2000, 1999 and
1998.
FORECLOSED REAL ESTATE
Foreclosed real estate is initially recorded at the lower of the related loan
balance or its fair value at the date of foreclosure. At the time properties are
acquired in full or partial satisfaction of loans, any excess of the loan
balance over the estimated fair market value of the property is charged against
the allowance for loan losses. The carrying value of these properties
approximates the lower of cost or fair value less estimated cost to sell. Any
excess of the carrying value over the estimated fair market value is charged to
operations.
TRANSFERS AND SERVICING OF FINANCIAL ASSETS AND EXTINGUISHMENT OF LIABILITIES
The Group follows the specific criteria established by Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing
of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities" to determine when
control has been surrendered in a transfer of financial assets. As such, it
recognizes the financial assets and servicing assets it controls and the
liabilities its has incurred. At the same time, it derecognizes financial
assets when control has been surrendered and liabilities when they are
extinguished.
F - 26
<PAGE>
INCOME TAXES
The Group follows an asset and liability approach to the recognition of deferred
tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events
that have been recognized in the Group's financial statements or tax returns.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined for differences
between financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will
result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future. The computation is based
on enacted laws and rates applicable to periods in which the temporary
differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Valuation allowances are
established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount
expected to be realized.
STOCK OPTION PLAN
As further discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the
Group has three stock options plans. These plans offer key officers and
employees an opportunity to purchase shares of the Group's common stock. The
Group follows the intrinsic value-based method of accounting for measuring
compensation expense, if any. Compensation expense is generally recognized for
any excess of the quoted market price of the Group's stock at measurement date
over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock.
COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity of a business enterprise
during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances, except for
those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. In
Oriental's case, in addition to net income, other comprehensive income results
from the changes in the unrealized gains and losses on securities that are
classified as available-for-sale. The presentation of comprehensive income
required by this statement is set forth in the statement of changes in
stockholders' equity and of comprehensive income.
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS:
ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE AND SIMILAR FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FOR HEDGING
ACTIVITIES
This SFAS 133, "Accounting for Derivative and Similar Financial Instruments and
for Hedging Activities" becomes effective for all fiscal quarters beginning
after June 15, 2000. In June 2000, the Board issued SFAS No. 138, "Accounting
for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities", this
statement amends the accounting and reporting standards of SFAS 133 for certain
derivatives instruments and certain hedging activities.
SFAS 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative financial
instruments and for hedging activities and requires all derivatives to be
measured at fair value and to be recognized as either assets or liabilities in
the statement of financial position. Under this Standard, derivatives used in
hedging activities are to be designated into one of the following categories:
(a) fair value hedge; (b) cash flow hedge; and (c) foreign currency exposure
hedge. The changes in fair value (that is, gains and losses) will be either
recognized as part of earnings in the period when the change occurs or as a
component of other comprehensive income (outside earnings) depending on their
intended use and resulting designation. Management is in the process of
determining the impact of SFAS 133 on the Group.
TRASNSFER AND SERVICING OF FINANCIAL ASSETS AND EXTINGUISHMENT OF LIABILITIES
The FASB recently issued SFAS 140 "Accounting for transfers and servicing of
Financial Assets and Extinguishments of liabilities, a replacement of SFAS
125." SFAS 140 revises the standards for accounting for security transactions
and other transfers of financial assets and collateral and requires certain
disclosures, but it carries over most of SFAS 125's provisions without
reconsideration. SFAS 140 is effective on transactions ocurring after March
31, 2000. Management has not yet determined the impact, if any, of this
statement in the Group's financial statements.
RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain minor reclassifications have been made to the 1999 and 1998 consolidated
financial statements to conform with the presentation of the 2000 consolidated
financial statements.

NOTE 2 - RESTATEMENT OF PREVIOUSLY ISSUED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
--------------------------------------------------------------
In August 1998 an employee of Oriental admitted that he had been involved in
a scheme to embezzle funds belonging to Oriental for the previous three (3)
years. He admitted that he had been manipulating and altering various books
and records of the company and intentionally failing to perform reliable
account analysis and reconciliations. After firing the employee, the company
began an internal investigation assisted by its legal counsel and reported
the activity to appropriate regulatory authorities and its fidelity insurance
carrier.
During the course of the investigation in fiscal 1999, Oriental discovered
that certain other employees had altered various books and records of the
company and failed to perform appropriate reconciliations. It also reported
those items to the regulatory authorities and to the fidelity insurance
carrier. As a result of this discovery, the company broadened the scope of
its internal investigation and, in May 1999, engaged its independent
accountants to assist it.
Based upon the additional information discovered in the investigation,
Oriental filed initial claims with its fidelity insurance carrier for losses
in the aggregate amount of $488,194 during the second quarter of fiscal 2000.
During the third quarter of fiscal 2000, Oriental reported its discovery of
additional alterations of records and deletions of reconciliation items to
regulatory authorities and its fidelity insurance carrier and then filed with
the fidelity insurance carrier claims for recovery of losses relating to
these irregularities in the amount of approximately $9.0 million.
In its interim report on Form 10-Q for the third quarter of 2000, Oriental
reported that it had discovered those $9.5 million ($5.8 million net of tax)
of losses resulting from the dishonest and fraudulent acts and omissions of
several former employees. In addition, it stated that, in consultation with
legal counsel, it had concluded that the losses were covered by Oriental's
fidelity insurance policy and recovery was considered highly probable.
In July 2000, Oriental's fidelity insurance carrier notified Oriental that it
was denying all the the filed claims. This denial triggered Oriental's
decision to restate its financial statements. Thereafter, Oriental continued
its investigation primarily to determine how the losses should be allocated
to prior financial statements. Oriental filed a legal action against the
insurance carrier as explained on Note 15 to the consolidated financial
statements.
In October 2000, Oriental announced that it had completed the investigation
and identified total charges of $12.7 million, net of tax effect. This amount
includes $900,000 (net of tax) loss relating to the contract to sell the
consumer loans and lease portfolio. With the assistance of its independent
accountants, Oriental determined that $9.6 million (net of tax) of the $12.7
million charges was related to events in prior fiscal years and thus would
require restatement of previous financial statements. The remaining $3.1
million ($12.7 million less the $9.6 million restatement, both net of tax)
was charged in fiscal year 2000. A significant portion ($5.8 million, net of
taxes) of the $9.6 million requiring restatement is related to the previously
disclosed losses arising from the former employees' actions, and affects
fiscal year 1998 and prior periods.
The $9.6 million charges are recognized as follows, net of tax:
- $5.6 million against beginning retained earnings for fiscal 1998.
- $2.1 million against earnings of fiscal 1998.
- $1.9 million against earnings of fiscal 1999.
Furthermore, it was determined that additional closing adjustments of $2.1
million (net of tax) were necessary, though not related to the matter
discussed above. Approximately $1.8 million, net of tax, of these additional
items affects fiscal year 2000. Fiscal 1999 earnings were affected by
$224,000, a credit of $53,000 was made to 1998 earnings, and a charge of
$178,000 was made against the beginning retained earnings of fiscal year 1998
(all items net of tax).
Additionally, a $2.2 million favorable tax adjustment related to fiscal year
1999 was also identified.
Therefore, the restatement (net of tax) to previously issued financial
statements will be:
- $5.8 million against beginning retained earnings for fiscal 1998.
- $2 million against earnings of fiscal 1998.
- A favorable $58,000 increase to fiscal year 1999 earnings.
The effect of the restatement on the Consolidated Statement of Income for
fiscal years 1999 and 1998 is as follows:

NOTE 3 - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY:
STOCK SPLITS
Stock splits were retroactively reflected for all periods presented in the
accompanying Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and of Changes in
Stockholder's Equity and of Comprehensive Income and for all share and per
share amounts.
On August 18, 1998, the Group declared a four-for-three (33.3%) stock split on
common stock held by registered shareholders as of September 30, 1998. As a
result, approximately 3,385,000 shares of common stock were distributed on
October 15, 1998. In addition, on August 11, 1997, the Group declared a
five-for-four (25%) stock split on common stock held by registered shareholders
as of September 30, 1997. Approximately 2,012,000 shares of common stock were
distributed on October 15, 1997 as result of this stock split.
TREASURY STOCK
As of June 30, 2000, the Board of Directors (the "Board") had authorized
management to repurchase up to 1,417,000 shares. The authority granted by the
Board of Directors does not require the Group to repurchase any shares. The
repurchase of shares will be made in the open market at such times and prices as
market conditions shall warrant, and in compliance with the terms of applicable
federal and Puerto Rico laws and regulations. The activity of common shares held
by the Group's treasury for the years ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 is set forth
below.

STOCK OPTIONS
The Group has three stock options plans, the 1988, 1996 and the 1998
Incentive Stock Option Plans ("The Plans"). These plans offer key officers
and employees an opportunity to purchase shares of the Group's common stock.
The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors has sole authority and
absolute discretion as to the number of stock options to be granted, their
vesting rights, and the options exercise price. The Plans provide for a
proportionate adjustment in the exercise price and the number of shares that
can be purchased in case of a stock split, reclassification of stock, and a
merger or reorganization. Stock options vest upon completion of specified
years of service. In the case of the stock options granted under the 1996 and
1998 Plan, the contracts include provisions that would accelerate the vesting
of the options upon the attainment of certain financial performance goals.
The activity in outstanding options for the year ended June 30, 2000 and
1999, is set forth below:

As described in Note 1, the Group uses the intrinsic value based method to
account for stock options. Under this method, the stock options compensation
recorded in fiscal 2000 amounted $289,000 (1999- $100,000; 1998- $0). The
following table presents the Group's net income and earnings per common share
assuming the Group had used the fair value method to recognize compensation

The fair value of each option granted in fiscal years 2000, 1999 and 1998 was
estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following
assumptions: (1) - The market price of the stock at the date of fiscal 2000,
1999 and 1998 grants was $22.75, $30.38 and $16.99. The weighted average
exercise price of the option was $19.13, $26.17 and $16.99. In the case of
fiscal 1999 and 1998 grants, the price of the options granted equaled the
quoted market price of the stock. (2) - The expected option term is 7 years.
(3) - The expected volatility is 32% for options granted in fiscal 2000 (1999
-31%, 1998 -30%). (4) - The expected Dividend Yield - 2.64% for options
granted in fiscal 2000 (1999 - 1.98%, 1998 - 3.32%). (5) The risk-free
interest rate is 5.79% for options granted in fiscal 2000 (1999 - 4.93%, 1998
- 6.12%). (6) - The weighted average fair value of the options granted in
2000 was $8.80 (1999 - $12.04, 1998 - $5.92).
LEGAL SURPLUS
The Banking Act of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico requires that a minimum of
10% of the Bank's net income for the year be transferred to capital surplus
until such surplus equals the greater of 10% of total deposits or paid-in
capital. At June 30, 2000, legal surplus amounted to $10,578,000 (1999 -
$8,673,000). The amount transferred to the legal surplus account is not
available for payment of dividends to shareholders. In addition, the Federal
Reserve Board has issued a policy statement that bank holding companies should
generally pay dividends only from current operating earnings.

PREFERRED STOCK
In May 1999, the Group issued 1,340,000 shares of its 7.125% Noncumulative
Monthly Income Preferred Stock, Series A at $25 per share. The Group generated
$32,300,000 in net proceeds from this issue for general corporate purposes. The
Series A Preferred Stock has the following characteristics: (1) Annual dividends
of $1.78125 per share, payable monthly, if declared by the board of directors.
Missed dividends are not cumulative, (2) Redeemable at the Group's option
beginning on May 30, 2004, (3) No mandatory redemption or stated maturity date
and (4) Liquidation value of $25 per share.
REGULATORY CAPITAL
The Group is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by
the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can
initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by
regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the
Group's assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated
under regulatory accounting practices. The Group'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 Group 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). Management believes that, as of June 30, 2000, Oriental
meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.
As of March 31, 2000, the most recent notification from the FDIC, dated August
2000, categorized the Group as a "well capitalized institution" under the
regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well
capitalized the Group must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based,
and Tier I leverage ratios as set forth in the table below. There are no
conditions or events since that date that management believes have changed the
institution's category. The Group's and the Bank's actual capital amounts and
ratios of total risk-based capital, Tier 1 risk-based capital and Tier 1 capital
at June 30, were as follows:

The category of securities held-to-maturity due after ten years includes
$49,826,000 (1999 - $52,610,000), of certain Puerto Rico GNMA serial
certificates with an average expected life of 4 to 6 years.
Proceeds from the sale of investment securities available-for-sale during fiscal
2000 totaled $104,402,000 (1999 - $242,121,000; 1998 - $103,864,000). Gross
realized gains and losses on those sales during fiscal 2000 were $1,249,000 and
$47,000, respectively (1999 -$10,515,000 and $55,000; 1998 - $1,180,000 and
$150,000).
The Government of Puerto Rico was the only issuer, other than the U.S.
Government, of instruments that are payable and secured by the same source of
revenue or taxing authority that exceeded 10% of stockholders' equity at June
30, 2000 and 1999. For the years ended on June 30, 2000 and 1999, the fair value
of these investments represented 15% and 19% of stockholders' equity,
respectively. At June 30, 2000, the amortized cost and fair value of investments
from the Government of Puerto Rico were approximately $17,686,000 (1999 -
$23,723,000) and $17,652,000 (1999 - $24,102,000), respectively. At June 30,
2000, $13,670,000 (1999 -$18,456,000) of these investments was an AAA-rated
Puerto Rico municipal bond collateralized with mortgage-backed securities.
After a thorough evaluation of the Group's investment portfolio, the Group
transferred available-for-sale securities (at fair value) of $263,793,000 (1999
- $405,526,000) to the held-to-maturity portfolio. The unrealized net holding
loss on these securities at the date of the transfer of $4,858,000 (1999 -
$4,571,000) remained as part of accumulated other comprehensive income within
stockholders' equity and is being amortized over the remaining life of the
securities as an adjustment to yield.

The Group's business activity is with consumers located in Puerto Rico.
Oriental's loan transactions include a diversified number of industries and
activities such as individuals, sole proprietorships, partnerships,
manufacturing, tourism, government, insurance and not-for-profit
organizations, all of which are encompassed within four main categories:
mortgage, commercial, consumer and leasing. Oriental's loan portfolio has a
higher concentration of loans to consumers such as residential mortgage loans
and personal loans. The composition of the Group's loan portfolio at June 30,

At June 30, 2000, residential mortgage loans held-for-sale amounted to
$13,302,000 (1999 - $55,206,000). All mortgage residential loans originated
and sold during fiscal 2000 were sold based on pre-established commitments or
at market values. In fiscal 2000, the Group recognized gains of $5,891,000,
(1999 -$9,124,000; 1998 - $8,563,000) in these sales which are included in
the statement of income as part of mortgage banking activities.
On July 7, 2000, the Group sold its non-delinquent unsecured personal loans
and lease portfolios to a local financial institution. At June 30, 2000 these
loans were under a contract to sell, thus they were valued by reference to
the contracted price. A loss of $1.2 million was recorded in fiscal 2000 in
connection with this contract.
At June 30, 2000, loans on which the accrual of interest has been
discontinued amounted to approximately $16,875,000 (1999 -$19,542,000). The
gross interest income that would have been recorded in fiscal 2000 if
non-accrual loans had performed in accordance with their original terms
amounted to approximately $1,692,000 (1999 - $2,041,000; 1998 - $2,138,000).
ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
The Group's management has the responsibility for establishing the allowance
for loan losses and for determining that the allowance is adequate to absorb
probable and inherent losses in the loan portfolio at each reporting date.
For this purpose, management employs a systematic methodology to estimate the
allowance, which incorporates quantitative and qualitative factors.
Management documents the policies, procedures and assumptions surrounding the
determination of the allowance at least on a quarterly basis. The principal
factors used to determine the level of allowance for loan losses are the
Group's historical and current credit loss experience. These factors are
combined with the qualitative factors such as the growth of the loan
portfolio, concentrations of credit (e.g., local industries, etc.) that might
affect loss experience across one or more components of the portfolio,
effects of any changes in lending policies and procedures, including
underwriting standards, collections and credit scoring systems, as well as
the general economic environment in the market. Various regulatory agencies,
as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the
Group's allowance for loan losses as well as the methodology followed. Such
agencies may require the Group to recognize changes to the allowance based on
their judgment of information available at the time of their examinations.
These factors are applied in the context of GAAP and the Joint Interagency
Guidance on the importance of depository institutions having prudent,
conservative, but not excessive loan loss allowances that fall within an
acceptable range of estimated losses. While management uses available
information in estimating possible loan losses, future changes to the
allowance may be necessary based on factors beyond the Group's control, such
as factors affecting general economic conditions in Puerto Rico. The changes
in the allowance for loan losses for the last three fiscal years ended June
30, were as follows:

As described in Note 1, the Group evaluates all loans, some individually and
others as homogeneous groups, for purposes of determining impairment. At June
30, 2000 and 1999, the Group determined that no specific impairment reserve
was required for those loans evaluated for impairment.
CONCENTRATION OF RISK:
Substantially all loans in the Group are to residents in Puerto Rico,
therefore, it is susceptible to events affecting Puerto Rico's economy. The
vast majority of the loans are well collateralized, thus reducing the risk of
potential losses.

NOTE 10 - INTEREST RATE RISK MANAGEMENT
The Group uses interest rate swaps and caps as an interest rate risk hedging
mechanism. Under the swaps, the Group pays a fixed annual cost and receives a
floating ninety-day payment based on LIBOR. Floating rate payments received from
the swap counterparty correspond to the floating rate payments made on the
borrowings or notes thus resulting in a net fixed rate cost to the Group. Under
the caps, Oriental pays an up front premium or fee for the right to receive cash
flow payments in excess of the predetermined cap rate; thus, effectively capping
its interest rate cost for the duration of the agreement.
The Group's swaps and caps outstanding and their terms at June 30, are set forth
in the table below:
<TABLE>

Cap rate 7.00% 6.50%
Current 90 day LIBOR 6.82% 5.29%
Maturity in months 23 4 to 15
</TABLE>
The agreements were entered into to convert short-term borrowings into fixed
rate liabilities for longer periods and provide protection against increases
in interest rates. The amounts potentially subject to credit loss are the net
streams of payments under the agreements and not the notional principal
amounts. The Group controls the credit risk of its interest rate swap
agreements through approvals, limits, monitoring procedures and collateral,
where considered necessary. The Group does not anticipate nonperformance by
the counterparties. All interest rate swap and caps at June 30, 2000 mature
during fiscal year 2002.
As part of its interest rate risk management, during fiscal 2000 the Group
closed certain interest rate swaps and caps agreements with notional value of
approximately $390,000,000. This transaction generated gains of approximately
$1,720,000 which are being amortized as an adjustment to yield over the
remaining original terms of the agreements.

The Group offers its customers certificates of deposit tied to the performance
of one of the following stock market indexes, Standard & Poor's 500, Dow Jones
Industrial Average and Russell 2000. At the end of five years, the depositor
will receive a specified percent of the average increase of the month-end value
of the corresponding stock index. If such index decreases, the depositor
receives the principal without any interest. The Group uses interest rate swap
agreements with major money center banks to manage its exposure to the stock
market. Under the terms of the agreements, the Group will receive the average
increase in the month-end value of the corresponding index in exchange for a
semiannual fixed interest cost. At June 30, 2000, the notional amount of these
agreements totaled $132,975,000 (1999 - $79,815,000) at a weighted average rate
of 5.84% (1999- 5.81%).
The Group offers its customers certificates of deposit with high interest rates
and therefore uses interest rate swap agreements to lower the cost of these
deposits. Under the terms of the agreements the Group pays a floating rate (90
days LIBOR less a spread) and receives a fixed payment (the cost of the
certificates of deposit). These swaps mature in seven years with an option to
cancel after the third year. This option is at the counterparty's call. The
certificates of deposit are issued with this same option, the Group has the
right to call and consequently to cancel the certificates of deposit. At June
30, 2000, the notional amount of these agreements totaled $40,000,000 (1999 -
$0) at a weighted average rate of 5.82% (1999- 0%). Of this amount, swaps
with notional amount of $16.2 million did not meet the criteria for hedge
accounting. As of June 30, 2000 the fair value of these swaps was ($173,000).
This amount was recorded in income in fiscal year 2000.
At June 30, 2000, the contractual maturities of interest rate swaps and caps by
fiscal year were as follows:

NOTE 11 - EMPLOYEE BENEFITS PLAN:
The Group has a cash or deferred arrangement profit sharing plan 401(k). Under
this plan, the Group contributes shares of its common stock to match individual
employee contributions up to $1,040. The plan is entitled to acquire and hold
qualified employer securities as part of its investment of the trust assets
pursuant to ERISA Section 407. During fiscal 2000 the Group contributed 6,519,
(1999 - 4,916; 1998 - 4,186), shares of its common stock with a market value of
approximately $124,269, (1999 - $119,000; 1998 - $153,000) at the time of
contribution. The Group's contribution becomes 100% vested once the employee
attains five years of participation in the plan.

</TABLE>
The Group maintained an effective tax rate lower than the statutory rate of
39% mainly due to the interest income arising from certain mortgage loans,
investments and mortgage-backed securities exempt for Puerto Rico income tax
purposes, net of expenses attributable to the exempt income. During fiscal
2000, the Group generated tax-exempt interest income of $71,881,000 (1999 -
$49,458,000; 1998 - $38,971,000). Exempt interest relates mostly to interest
earned on obligations of the United States and Puerto Rico Governments and
certain mortgage-backed securities, including securities held by the Group's
International Banking Entity.

effective tax rate as reported for each of the last three fiscal years ended

NOTE 14 - COMMITMENTS:
LOAN COMMITMENTS
At June 30, 2000, there was $12,555,000, (1999 - $9,923,000) of unused lines of
credit provided to individual customers and $1,250,000 in commitments to
originate loans (1999 - $10,000,000). Commitments to extend credit are
agreements to lend to customers as long as there is no violation of any
condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed
expiration dates and may require payment of a fee. Since the commitments may
expire unexercised, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent
future cash requirements. The Group evaluates each customer's credit-worthiness
on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary
by the Group upon extension of credit, is based on management's credit
evaluation of the customer.
LEASE COMMITMENTS
The Group has entered into various operating lease agreements for branch
facilities and administrative offices. Rent expense for fiscal 2000 amounted to
$1,499,000 (1999 - $1,013,000; 1998 - $847,000). As of June 30, 2000, future
rental commitments under the terms of the leases, exclusive of taxes, insurance

NOTE 15 - LITIGATION:
On August 14, 1998, as a result of a review of its accounts in connection
with the admission by a former Group officer of having embezzled funds, the
Group became aware of certain irregularities. The Group notified the
appropriate regulatory authorities and commenced an intensive investigation
with the assistance of its independent accountants and legal counsel. The
recently completed investigation determined losses of $9.5 million ($5.8 net
of tax) resulting from dishonest and fraudulent acts and omissions involving
several former Group employees. In the opinion of the Group's management and
its legal counsel, the losses determined by the investigation are covered by
the Group's fidelity insurance. However, claims for such losses have been
denied by the Group's fidelity insurance carrier. On August 11, 2000, the
Group filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the district of
Puerto Rico against Federal Insurance Company, Inc., a stock insurance
corporation organized under the laws of the state of Indiana, seeking payment
of its $9.5 million insurance claim and the payment of consequential damages
resulting from the denial of the claim.
In addition, the Group and its subsidiaries are defendants in a number of legal
proceedings incidental to its business. The Group is vigorously contesting such
claims. Based upon a review by legal counsel and the development of these
matters to date, management is of the opinion that the ultimate aggregate
liability, if any, resulting from these claims will not have a material adverse
effect on the Group's financial position or the results of operations.
NOTE 16 - FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS:
The reported fair values of financial instruments are based on either quoted
market prices for identical or comparable instruments or estimated based on
assumptions concerning the amount and timing of estimated future cash flows and
assumed discount rates reflecting varying degrees of risk. Accordingly, the fair
values may not represent the actual values of the financial instruments that
could have been realized as of year-end or that will be realized in the future.
The fair value estimates are made at a point in time based on the type of
financial instruments and related relevant market information. Quoted market
prices are used for financial instruments in which an active market exists.
However, because no market exists for a portion of the Group's financial
instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding the amount
and timing of estimated future cash flows, assumed discount rates reflecting
varying degrees of risk, and other factors. Because of the uncertainty inherent
in estimating fair values, these estimates may vary from the values that would
have been used had a ready market for these financial instruments existed.

<PAGE>
These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters
of significant judgment. Changes in assumptions could affect these fair value
estimates. The fair value estimates do not take into consideration the value of
future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not financial
instruments. Other significant tangible and intangible assets that are not
considered financial instruments are the value of long-term customer
relationships of the retail deposits, and premises and equipment.
The estimated fair value and carrying value of the Group's financial instruments
at June 30, follows:

</TABLE>
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values
of significant financial instruments at June 30, 2000 and 1999.
Short-term financial instruments, which include cash and due from banks, money
market investments, accrued interest receivable and accrued expenses and other
liabilities have been valued at the carrying amounts reflected in the
Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition as these are reasonable estimates
of fair value given the short-term nature of the instruments.
The fair value of investment securities is estimated based on bid quotations
from securities dealers. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value
is estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities. Investments in
FHLB stock are valued at their redemption value.
The estimated fair value for loans held-for-sale is based on secondary market
prices or contractual agreements to sell. The fair value of the loan
portfolio has been estimated for loan portfolios with similar financial
characteristics. Loans are segregated by type, such as commercial, real
estate mortgage and consumer. Each loan category is further segmented into
fixed and adjustable interest rates and by performing and non-performing
categories. The fair value of performing loans is calculated by discounting
contractual cash flows, adjusted for prepayment estimates, if any, using
estimated current market discount rates that reflect the credit and interest
rate risk inherent in the loan. The fair value for significant non-performing
loans is based on specific evaluations of discounted expected future cash
flows from the loans or its collateral using current appraisals and market
rates.
The fair value of non-interest bearing demand deposits, savings and NOW accounts
is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of
fixed-maturity certificates of deposits is based on the discounted value of the
contractual cash flows, using estimated current market discount rates for
deposits of similar remaining maturities.
F - 42
<PAGE>
For short-term borrowings, the carrying amount is considered a reasonable
estimate of fair value. The fair value of long-term borrowings is based on the
discounted value of the contractual cash flows, using current estimated market
discount rates for borrowings with similar terms and remaining maturities.
Interest rate swap and cap agreements are fair valued based on discounted value
analysis. The values represent the estimated amount the Group would receive or
pay to terminate the contracts or agreements at the reporting date, considering
current interest rates and the credit-worthiness of the counterparties.
NOTE 17 - SEGMENT REPORTING:
The Group operates three major reportable segments: Financial Services, Mortgage
Banking, and Retail Banking. Management determined the reportable segments based
on the internal reporting used to evaluate performance and to assess where to
allocate resources. Other factors such as the Group's organizational chart,
nature of products, distribution channels and economic characteristics of the
products were also considered in the determination of the reportable segments.
The Group measures the performance of these reportable segments, based on
pre-established goals of different financial parameters such as net income,
interest spread, loan production, fees generated, and increase in market share.
The Group's largest business segment is retail banking. The Bank's branches and
treasury functions are its main components, with traditional banking products
such as deposits, electronic banking and finance leases.
Oriental's second largest business segment is the financial services, which is
comprised of the Bank's trust division (Oriental Trust) and of the Bank's
brokerage subsidiary (Oriental Financial Services). The core operations of this
segment are financial planning, money management and investment brokerage
services, as well as corporate and individual trust services.
The Group's smallest business segment is mortgage banking. It consists of
Oriental Mortgage, whose principal activity is to originate and purchase
mortgage loans for the Group's own portfolio. From time to time, if conditions
so warrant, it may sell loans to other financial institutions or securitize
conforming loans into GNMA, FNMA and FHLMC certificates. Mortgages included in
the resulting GNMA, FNMA, and FHLMC pools are serviced by another institution.
The Group also sells the rights to service mortgage loans for others.

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note
1 - "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies." Following are the results of
operations and the selected financial information by operating segment for each
of the three years ended June 30:
