MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
EARNINGS:
Net earnings for the first quarter ended March 31, 1997 increased to
$3,293,000 up 16 percent over 1996 earnings of $2,839,000. Earnings per share
increased to $ .45 for the first quarter of 1997, an increase of 18 percent over
earnings per share of $ .38 in the first quarter of 1996. Earnings information
is summarized below:
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
First Quarter
1997 1996
---- ----
Net income $3,293 $2,839
Earnings per share $ .45 $ .38
Return on average equity 11.17% 10.69%
Return on average assets 1.52% 1.46%
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Net interest income for the first quarter was $10,379,000 up $679,000
or 7 percent over the first quarter of 1996. Fluctuations in net interest income
can result from changes in the volume of assets and liabilities as well as
changes in interest rates. The following table summarizes variances in net
interest income attributed to changes in balance sheet volumes and interest
rates:
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NET INTEREST INCOME CHANGE FROM FIRST QUARTER 1996
Resulting from:
Interest On: Total Rates Volumes
----- ----- -------
Total Earning Assets $ 1,518 $ (611) $ 2,129
Total Interest Bearing Liabilities 846 (225) 1,071
-----------------------------------
Change in Net Interest Income $ 672 $ (386) $ 1,058
===================================
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The tax equivalent net interest margin for the quarter was 5.22 percent
compared with 5.44 percent for the same period last year. We continue to face
strong competition for loans in our market niche. Notwithstanding the
competitive environment, loans increased by 13 percent over the first quarter of
1996.
Noninterest income for the first quarter was up $618,000 or 26 percent
when compared with 1996. The largest contributors to this increase were service
charges on deposit accounts and a one-time contract cancellation fee.
Noninterest expense increased $213,000 or 3 percent for the first
quarter. The categories with the largest increases were occupancy and equipment
expense which was related to the relocation of the Company offices from 75 South
Fifth Street to 651 Nicollet Mall, in Gaviidae Common, during the first quarter
of 1996.
The efficiency ratio improved to 53.34 percent for the first quarter of
1997 compared to 57.31 percent for the same period last year. The improvement
was due to the increase in net interest income combined with the increase in
noninterest income, and the relatively modest increase in noninterest expense.
Net loan charge-offs during the first quarter were $470,000 compared
with $37,000 for the same period last year. The loan loss provision was $790,000
for the first quarter, compared with $435,000 in the first quarter of 1996. The
provision is based on management's continuing evaluation of the loan portfolio,
including estimates and appraisals of collateral values, and current economic
conditions. At March 31, 1997 the allowance for loan losses was $8,831,000, 1.41
percent of loans, compared to 1.43 percent at December 31, 1996. Credit quality
remains strong with non-performing loans at .4 percent of loans outstanding. At
quarter end the reserve coverage of non-performing assets was 382 percent.
Activity regarding the allowance is summarized below:

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:
The Company's average total assets were $ 875.5 million for the
three-months ended March 31, 1997, up from $ 780.8 million for the same period
in 1996. The majority of the increase was attributed to loans to businesses. The
Company continues to fund asset growth from various liability sources, including
interest bearing deposits, short-term borrowings, retention of earnings, and
noninterest bearing deposits. Short-term borrowings include commercial paper
which is used to fund the loans of Diversified Business Credit, Inc. (DBCI). In
addition to deposits and short-term borrowings, the Company had long-term debt
of $ 58 million at March 31, 1997, principally in the form of senior notes, also
used to fund the loans of DBCI.
The Company continues to maintain a capital position that exceeds
regulatory risk based and leverage ratio capital requirements. The required risk
based ratio is 8 percent and the required leverage ratio is 3 to 5 percent. The
following table shows the Company's capital ratios:
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

TO OUR STOCKHOLDERS:
Net earnings were $3,293,000 for the first quarter of 1997, up 15.99 percent,
compared with $2,839,000 in the first quarter of 1996. Earnings per share
increased to $0.45 compared with $0.38 in the first quarter of 1996.
First quarter net interest income was $10,379,000, which was higher by $679,000,
or 7 percent, than in the first quarter of 1996. The improvement was primarily
attributable to an increase in average loans, which were up $73.2 million, or
13.2 percent from the first quarter of 1996. The growth in loans occurred mainly
in commercial lending at both subsidiaries, National City Bank of Minneapolis
and Diversified Business Credit, Inc. The net interest margin was 5.22 percent
for the first quarter compared with 5.44 percent for the same period last year.
Noninterest income for the first quarter was $618,000 or 26.2 percent more than
the first quarter of 1996. Noninterest expense for the first quarter was
$213,000 or 3.1 percent more than the first quarter of 1996. The increases
occurred mainly in equipment and occupancy costs, offset partially by decreased
personnel costs.
Net loan charge-offs for the first quarter were $470,000. Additional loss
provisions of $790,000 were added to the reserve during the quarter. As a
result, the Company's reserve for loan losses at quarter-end was $8,831,000 or
1.41 percent of loans outstanding compared to $8,511,000 and 1.43 percent at
December 31, 1996. Nonperforming assets were down to $2.3 million or .37 percent
of total loans at March 31, 1997 compared with $3.2 million or .54 percent of
total loans at December 31, 1996.
At the Annual Stockholders' meeting held on April 21, 1997, Terry L. Andreas,
Marvin Borman, Kenneth H. Dahlberg, and Thomas E. Holloran were reelected to the
Board of Directors. The Directors also declared a 10 percent stock dividend to
stockholders of record May 5, 1997, payable June 5, 1997.
