ITEM 2 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION.
This Report contains statements which constitute forward-looking statements
within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These statements appear in a number of
places in this Report and include all statements regarding the intent, belief or
current expectations of the Company, its directors or its officers with respect
to, among other things: (i) the Company's financing plans;(ii) trends affecting
the Company's financial condition or results of operations; (iii) the Company's
growth strategy and operating strategy; and (iv) the declaration and payment of
dividends. Investors are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are
not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties, and
that actual results may differ materially from those projected in the forward-
looking statements as a result of various factors discussed herein and those
factors discussed in detail in the Company's filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission.
The following discussion of the financial condition and results of
operations of the Registrant (the Company) should be read in conjunction with
the Company's financial statements and related notes and other statistical
information included elsewhere herein.
GENERAL
The Company was incorporated in Maryland on December 10, 1996 as a bank
holding company. Stock of a Maryland state bank with the name Peoples Bank of
Kent County, Maryland (the "Bank") was exchanged in March, 1997 for the
outstanding stock of the Company.
The Bank was established and incorporated in 1910. The Company currently
engages in no business other than owning and managing the Bank.
FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND SOURCES OF CAPITAL
The primary sources of liquidity of the Bank are from loan payments, short-
term investments, including federal funds sold, and cash and due from banks.
Average liquid assets (cash and amounts due from banks, interest bearing
deposits in other banks, federal funds sold, and investment securities) compared
to average deposits were 32.04% at June 30, 1999 as compared to 27.19% at the
same period last year. Another source of liquidity is a secured line of credit
for $15,000,000 from the Federal Home Loan Bank as well as lines of credit in
the amount of $6,000,000 from correspondent banks, namely, NationsBank and First
National Bank of Maryland.
Tier one capital ratios of the Bank, based on average assets for the six
months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998 were 17.00% and 17.14%, respectively. Both
are substantially in excess of regulatory minimum requirements. The Bank
expects that its current capital and short-term investments will satisfy the
Bank's cash requirements for the foreseeable future. However, no assurance can
be given in this regard as rapid growth, deterioration in loan quality or a
downturn in earnings, or a combination of these factors could change the Bank's
capital position in a relatively short period of time.
At June 30, 1999, the Bank's interest rate sensitivity, as measured by gap
analysis, showed the bank was liability-sensitive with a six month cumulative
gap, as a percentage of interest-earning assets, of 79.09%. This shows that the
bank is fairly evenly matched where any rate change will affect the same amount
of both assets and liabilities. Generally, liability sensitivity indicates that
a higher dollar amount of liabilities re-price than assets and in a declining
rate environment net interest income increases. On the other hand, if interest
rates increase, then typically the net interest income should decline. The
bank controls this matching of assets to liabilities to minimize interest rate
risk while at the same time maximizing income.
- 7 -
RESULTS AND PLAN OF OPERATION
Net income for the six months ended June 30, 1999, was $912,000, or $1.07
per share, compared to $926,000, or $1.07 per share, for the first six months of
1998. The primary reason net income decreased is due to an increase in Occupancy
and Furniture and Equipment expense which is the result of Main Office branch
expansion.
The Bank reviewed its loan portfolio and determined the allowance, at 1.01%
of gross loans, was adequate at June 30, 1999. At December 31, 1998, the
allowance was also 1.01% of gross loans. At June 30, 1999, there were five
nonaccruing mortgage loans totaling $193,000 and only 1.34% of the portfolio was
delinquent ninety days or more including nonaccruing loans.
The Bank employed sixty three full time equivalent employees during the
second quarter of 1999. The Company employs no employees outside those hired by
the Bank.
The Bank offers a variety of commercial banking services in its trade area,
which encompasses all of Kent County, northern Queen Anne's County and southern
Cecil County, Maryland. This primary service area is located between the
Chesapeake Bay and the western boundary of Delaware. The Bank emphasizes its
primary goal of meeting the banking needs of individuals and small to medium
sized business in its daily operations. The Bank offers a full range of deposit
services that are generally available in most banks and other similar
institutions, i.e., checking accounts, now accounts, savings accounts and other
time deposits of various types, ranging from daily money market accounts to
long-term certificates of deposit.
The Bank also offers a broad range of short and medium term commercial and
personal loans. The bank originates demand and balloon type mortgage loans to
fit may types of loan requests, i.e., real estate construction, acquisition,
home equity and a variety of commercial purposes. Loans originated to date are
anticipated to be held in the Bank's portfolio.
The Bank's services also include cash management opportunities, safe
deposit boxes, direct deposit of various types of needs, automatic transfers of
funds, as well as discount brokerage services and financial planning, along with
security sales and purchases, including mutual funds and annuities. The bank
also offers ATM services though the Most and Cirrus networks. The Bank offers
Master Card and Visa credit card services through a correspondent bank as an
agent for the Bank as well as debit card services.
YEAR 2000 ISSUES
The Company uses a third-party data processor for most of its accounting
functions. The processor has implemented many changes in preparation for the
year 2000 ("Year 2000"). Testing should be complete by September 1999. The
Company also has a number of portable computers, all of which, due to their age,
are Year 2000 compliant. Management expects no significant additional costs to
get its systems Year 2000 compliant. The largest Year 2000 exposure to most
banks is the preparedness of the customers of the banks. Management is
addressing with its customers the possible consequences of not being prepared
for Year 2000. Statement enclosures have been mailed to every customer.
Should large borrowers not sufficiently address this issue, the Company may
experience an increase in loan defaults. The amount of potential loss from this
issue is not quantifiable. Management is attempting to reduce this exposure by
educating its customers. The Company's adopted a Comprehensive Plan that has
budgeted $20,000 to cover century date projects. Of this budgeted amount,
management has used $16,350.
MARKET RISK
Net interest income of the Company is one of the most important factors in
evaluating the financial performance of the Company. The Company uses interest
sensitivity analysis to determine the effect of rate changes. Net interest
income is projected over the one-year period to determine the effect of an
increase or decrease in the prime rate of 100 basis points. If prime were to
decrease 100 basis points, the Company would experience a decrease in net
interest income of $51,344, if all assets and liabilities maturing within that
period were adjusted for the rate change. The sensitivity analysis does not
consider the likelihood of these rate changes nor whether management's reaction
to this rate change would be to reprice its loans and deposits. This paragraph
contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of and made
pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Litigation Securities
Reform Act of 1995.
