NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE A -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying financial statements of HUBCO, Inc. and Subsidiaries ("HUBCO"
or "the Company") include the accounts of the parent company, HUBCO, Inc. and
its wholly-owned subsidiaries: Hudson United Bank ("Hudson United Bank"),
Lafayette American Bank & Trust Co. ("Lafayette"), HUB Capital Trust I and HUB
Financial Services Inc., formerly known as HUB Investment Services, Inc. All
material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation. These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, the information presented
includes all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, considered
necessary for a fair presentation, in all material respects, of the interim
period results. The results of operations for periods of less than one year are
not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The consolidated
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996.
NOTE B -- INCOME PER SHARE
Net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average
number of common shares plus the number of shares issuable upon conversion of
the preferred stock and the number of shares issuable upon the exercise of
warrants. Shares issuable upon the exercise of options are not included in the
calculation of net income per share since their effect is not material. All
share data has been retroactively restated to reflect all stock splits and stock
dividends.
The Company plans to adopt Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
128-"Earnings Per Share" in the fourth quarter of 1997, the impact of which is

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
This financial review presents management's discussion and analysis of financial
condition and results of operations. It should be read in conjunction with the
Company's Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying notes. All
dollar amounts, other than per share information, are presented in thousands
unless otherwise noted.
The financial statements for the comparative periods presented herein have been
restated to reflect the acquisitions that have been accounted for on the
pooling-of-interests accounting method during the periods presented herein.
Growth Financial Corporation was acquired on January 12, 1996, Lafayette
American Bank and Trust Company was acquired on July 1, 1996 and Westport
Bancorp, Inc. was acquired on December 13, 1996. These acquisitions were
accounted for on a pooling-of-interests method, and accordingly, the
consolidated financial statements have been restated to include the accounts of
these institutions for all periods presented. All share data has been
retroactively restated to reflect the shares issued in the aforementioned
transactions including restatement of all prior periods. In addition, the
Company acquired Hometown Bancorporation on August 30, 1996, UST
Bank/Connecticut on November 29, 1996, three branches from CrossLand Federal
Savings Bank on February 29, 1996, and a branch purchase from Interchange State
Bank on December 20, 1996. These acquisitions were accounted for on the purchase
method and thus operations and earnings are only reflected in the Company's
results subsequent to the dates of acquisition. The balance sheet and income
statement comparisons are influenced by these purchase transactions.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
For the three-month period ended March 31, 1997, the Company earned $11.5
million, an increase of 38% when compared to net income of $8.3 million for the
three-month period ended March 31, 1996. Net income per share was $.50 for the
first quarter of 1997, an increase of 43% when compared to $.35 for the same
period in 1996. Return on average equity and return on average assets were
22.07% and 1.50%, respectively, for the three-month period ended March 31, 1997
compared to 15.67% and 1.22%, respectively, for the same period in 1996.
NET INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income for the first quarter of 1997 was $34.2 million compared
with $32.3 million for the first quarter of 1996. This represents an increase of
$1.9 million or 5.9%. The net interest margin for the three-month period ended
March 31, was 4.92% in 1997 compared with 5.22% in 1996. This contraction of the
net interest margin is primarily due to the increase in borrowing costs
discussed below.
Interest income for the first quarter of 1997 compared to the same period in
1996, increased $4.5 million, or 9.0% while interest expense increased $2.6
million, or 14.6%.
6
<PAGE>
The increased interest expense was primarily attributable to the $75.0 million
of 8.20% subordinated debt which was issued in September of 1996 and the $50.0
million of 8.98% Securities of Capital Trust I issued in January 1997, as well
as an increase of $91.0 million in average short-term borrowings.
PROVISION FOR POSSIBLE LOAN LOSSES
The provision for possible loan losses for the comparative first quarters was
$1.4 million in 1997 compared with $2.3 million in 1996. The reduction in the
provision for possible loan losses is a reflection of the improved levels of
non-performing assets. The Company performs an evaluation of the adequacy of the
allowance for loan losses each quarter. The results of this analysis and the
expectation of potential credit losses and economic conditions are some of the
factors that determine the required quarterly provision. Management believes
that the allowance at March 31, 1997 of $35.7 million, or 1.93% of total loans
and 121% of non-performing loans, is adequate. Comparative ratios for March 31,
1996 are 1.87% and 112% respectively. Non-performing assets as a percentage of
total assets at March 31, 1997 was 1.13% compared to 1.52% at March 31, 1996.
The following table presents the composition of non-performing assets and loans
past due 90 days or more and accruing and selected asset quality ratios at the
dates indicated:

The level of loans past due 90 days or more and accruing increased $7.6 million
from December 31, 1996 to March 31, 1997. Approximately $4 million of this
increase is related to loans to one borrower. A significant portion of this
amount is expected to be resolved in the second quarter.

NON-INTEREST INCOME AND EXPENSE
Non-interest income increased 28.9% from $6.8 million for the first quarter of
1996 to $8.8 million in 1997. The variances between the three months ended March
31, 1997 and March 31, 1996 relate primarily to increased fees on the credit
card portfolio, security gains, international fees and other miscellaneous
income.
Non-interest expense, decreased $373, or 1.6% from $23.4 million for the first
quarter of 1996 to $23.0 million for the first quarter of 1997. Reductions were
realized in expense categories such as salaries, deposit and other insurance,
occupancy and other expenses. These reductions are a result of the full effect
of cost savings initiatives following the Lafayette and Hometown acquisitions in
July and August 1996, along with the cost reductions related to the Westport and
UST Bank/Connecticut acquisitions in December 1996 which will be fully realized
in the second quarter of this year.
In other categories, pension and other employee benefits increased $715 due to
an increase in temporary staff and overtime related to conversion and
acquisition related projects; outside services increased $772 related to
payments for computer processing and other data
8
<PAGE>
processing services; and amortization of intangibles increased $670 due to the
recent acquisitions of Hometown and UST/Bank Connecticut which were accounted
for under the purchase method of accounting.
The Company's effective tax rate for the three-month period ended March 31, 1997
was 38.0%. This compares with an effective tax rate for the comparable period in
1996 of 38.4%.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Total assets at March 31, 1997, were $3.07 billion, a decrease of $49.1 million
or 1.6% from the $3.12 billion of assets at December 31, 1996, as restated for
all poolings. The securities portfolio has remained stable, decreasing only $5.7
million from $936.4 million at December 31, 1996 to $930.7 million at March 31,
1997 due primarily to principal repayments. Loans decreased $34.3 million, or
1.8% to $1.85 billion at March 31, 1997 from $1.88 billion at December 31, 1996
reflecting declines in residential mortgage loans and consumer credit loans,
where indirect lending is being phased out, and in the Shoppers Charge
receivables which are seasonal. Intangibles, net of amortization, decreased from
$29.2 million at December 31, 1996 to $28.0 million at March 31, 1997 as the
intangibles related to the recent acquisitions are amortized over periods
ranging from 5 to 10 years.
Deposits decreased 5.9%, from $2.59 billion at December 31, 1996, to $2.44
billion at March 31, 1997. The Company generally anticipates, plans for and
experiences deposit shrinkage following acquisitions as the rates on deposits of
the acquired companies are conformed to rates generally offered by the Company.
Total borrowings increased $49.8 million from December 31, 1996 to March 31,
1997. This increase is due primarily to an increase in short-term advances from
the Federal Home Loan Bank to meet liquidity needs. Total stockholders' equity
at March 31, 1997 amounted to $206.2 million compared with $206.2 million at
March 31, 1996, and $206.3 million at December 31, 1996. The constant level of
stockholders' equity is attributable to the Company's increase in the level of
cash dividends, the change in the unrealized gain/(loss) on securities available
for sale, which changed from an after-tax gain of $3.0 million at December 31,
1996 to an after-tax loss of $1.0 million at March 31, 1997, and the purchase of
treasury shares.
On January 31, 1997, the Company placed $50.0 million in aggregate liquidation
amount of 8.98% Capital Securities due February 2027, using HUBCO Capital Trust
I, a statutory business trust formed under the laws of the State of Delaware.
The net proceeds of the offering were used for general corporate purposes and
to increase capital levels of the Company and its subsidiaries. The securities
qualify as Tier I capital under the capital guidelines of the Federal Reserve.
The Company is not aware of any current recommendations by the regulatory
authorities which would have a material adverse effect on the Company's capital
resources or operations. The capital ratios for the Company at March 31, 1997,
and the minimum regulatory guidelines for such capital ratios are as follows:
Ratios at Regulatory
March 31, 1997 Guidelines*
-------------- -----------
Tier I Risk-Based Capital .................. 11.1% 6.0%
Total Risk-Based Capital ................... 17.3% 10.0%
