Part I
Item 1. Financial Statements.
The following consolidated financial statements of the Company are
submitted herewith as an exhibit and are incorporated herein by
reference:
1. Consolidated Balance Sheets, March 31, 1995, March 31, 1994
and, December 31, 1994.
2. Consolidated Statements of Earnings, quarters ended March 31,
1995 and 1994.
3. Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, three months ended March
31, 1995 and 1994.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations.
Premier Financial Services, Inc. earned $1.30 million for the first
quarter of 1995 or $.15 earnings per share. Net earnings for the first
quarter of 1994 totaled $1.35 million, or $.16 earnings per share.
Return on average assets and common equity was .85% and 12.42%,
respectively for the three months ended March 31, 1995, compared to .92%
and 13.95% for the same period in 1994.
Net interest income for the first quarter of 1995 was $5.3 million, as
compared $5.2 million in 1994. The increase was essentially
attributable to growth in average earning assets. Average earning
assets totaled $545.4 million at March 31, 1995, an increase of $21.1
million from the $524.3 million reported in 1994. An analysis of first
quarter results reflects a 115 basis point increase in the average yield
on earning assets from 1994 to 1995, while the average cost of funds
increased 118 basis points, resulting in a slightly lower net interest
margin (4.21% in 1995 as compared to 4.24% in 1994).
Premier recorded a loan loss provision of $51,000 in the first quarter.
No provision for loan losses was made during the first three months of
1994. Nonperforming assets as a percentage of total assets decreased to
.76% as of March 31, 1995 as compared to 1.68% at March 31, 1994 and
1.14% at December 31, 1994. The adequacy of the allowance is consistent
with the composition of the portfolio and credit quality as of March 31,
1995. Assuming that anticipated loan growth materializes, it is likely
that additional provisions will be made in future periods.
Total noninterest income decreased $240,000, or 13.00% for the three
months ended March 31, 1995 as compared to the same period in 1994.
Contributing to the decrease was approximately $191,000 recorded in 1994
for fees and prior years' interest collected but not accrued on
nonperforming loans. In addition, the income on real estate loan
-2-
originations and sales to the secondary market, which enhanced earnings
before taxes in 1994 by $156,000, declined to $16,000 in 1995. Core fee
income from trust and service charges on deposit accounts increased
approximately $77,000 or 7.21%. Premier continues to exercise effective
control over noninterest expenses which were slightly less in the
quarter ended March 31, 1995 than in the first quarter of 1994.
At March 31, 1995, stockholders' equity totaled $56 million, up from
$52.5 million at December 31, 1994. This increase was due primarily to
earnings net of common and preferred dividends and a decrease in the
after tax unrealized loss recorded on securities available for sale in
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115,
Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities.
