(UNAUDITED) |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The accounting principles followed by One American Corp. (the Company), its wholly-owned subsidiary, First American Bank and Trust (the Bank), and the Bank's wholly-owned subsidiary, First American Agency, L.L.C. (the
Agency), are those which are generally practiced within the banking industry. The methods of applying those principles conform to generally accepted accounting principles and have been applied on a consistent basis. The principles that significantly
affect the determination of financial position, results of operations, changes in stockholders' equity, and cash flows are summarized below.
Presentation - The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles. Management is of the
opinion that the unaudited interim financial statements reflect all normal, recurring accrual adjustments necessary to provide a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. It is noted that the results of the nine-month period ended
September 30, 2000 are not an indication of the expected results for the annual period that ends December 31, 2000. Additional information concerning the audited financial statements and notes can be obtained from One American Corp.'s annual report and
Form 10-K filed for the period ended December 31, 1999.
Principles of Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of One American Corp. (the Company), its wholly-owned subsidiary, First American Bank and Trust (the Bank), and the Bank's
wholly-owned subsidiary, First American Agency, L.L.C. (the Agency). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Certain reclassifications to previously published financial statements have been made to comply with current
reporting requirements.
Estimates - The preparation of financial statements that conform to generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The determination of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is based on estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant changes in the economic environment and market conditions. In connection with the
determination of estimated losses on loans, management obtains independent appraisals for significant collateral. The Bank's loans are generally secured by specific items of collateral including real property, consumer assets, and business assets.
Although the Bank has a diversified loan portfolio, a substantial portion of its debtors' ability to honor their contracts is dependent on local conditions in the area. While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, further
reductions in the carrying amounts of loans may be necessary based on changes in local economic conditions. In addition, regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the estimated losses on loans. Such
agencies may require the Bank to recognize additional losses based on their
Page 8
judgements about information available to them at the time of their examination. Because of these factors, it is reasonably possible that the estimated losses on loans may change materially in the near term. However, the amount of the change that is
reasonably possible cannot be estimated.
Securities - Management determines the appropriate classification of debt securities (Held to Maturity, Available for Sale, or Trading) at the time of purchase and re-evaluates this classification periodically.
Securities that management has both the intent and ability to hold to maturity regardless of changes in market conditions, liquidity needs or changes in general economic conditions are classified as securities held to maturity. These securities are
carried at cost adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, computed by various methods approximating the interest method over their contractual lives.
Securities that may be sold prior to maturity are classified as securities available for sale. Any decision to sell a security classified as available for sale would be based on various factors, including significant
movements in interest rates, changes in the maturity mix of the Bank's assets and liabilities, liquidity needs, regulatory capital considerations, and other similar factors. Securities available for sale are carried at fair value. Unrealized gains or
losses are reported as increases or decreases in stockholders' equity, net of the related deferred tax effect. Realized gains or losses, determined on the basis of the cost of specific securities sold, are included in earnings. Securities purchased for
trading purposes are classified as trading securities and are carried at market value with market adjustments included in non-interest income. The Bank had no securities classified as held to maturity or trading at September 30, 2000 or 1999.
Loans - Loans are stated at principal amounts outstanding, less unearned income and allowance for loan losses. Interest on commercial and individual loans is accrued daily based on the principal outstanding.
Generally, the Bank discontinues the accrual of interest income when a loan becomes 90 days past due as to principal or interest. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, previously recognized but uncollected interest is
reversed to income or charged to the allowance for loan losses. Interest income is subsequently recognized only to the extent cash payments are received. The Bank classifies loans as impaired if, based on current information and events, it is possible
that the Bank will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal and interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The measurement of impaired loans is based on the present value of the expected future cash flows
discounted at the loan's effective interest rate or the loan's observable market price or based on the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral-dependent.
Allowance for Loan Losses - The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level which, in management's judgement, is adequate to absorb credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses is
based upon management's review and evaluation of the loan portfolio. Factors considered in the establishment of the allowance for loan losses include management's evaluation of specific loans; the level and composition of classified loans; historical loss
experience; results of examination by regulatory agencies; an internal asset review process; expectations of future economic conditions and their impact on particular borrowers; and other judgmental factors. Allowances for impaired loans are generally
determined based on collateral values or the present value of estimated cash flows. Although management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, because of uncertainties associated with local economic conditions, collateral values, and
future cash flows on impaired loans, it is reasonably possible that a material change could occur in the allowance for loan losses in the near term.
Page 9
However, the amount of the change that is reasonably possible cannot be estimated.
The allowance for loan losses is based on estimates of potential future losses. Actual losses may vary from the current estimates. These estimates are reviewed periodically and as adjustments become necessary, the effect of
the change in estimate is charged to operating expenses in the period incurred. All losses are charged to the allowance for loan losses when the loss actually occurs or when management believes that principal repayment is unlikely. Recoveries are credited
to the allowance at the time of recovery.
Bank Premises and Equipment - Bank premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided at rates based upon estimated useful service lives (ten to thirty years for
buildings, three to ten years for equipment) using the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes and accelerated methods for income tax purposes.
The cost of assets retired or otherwise disposed of and the related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts in the year of disposal and the resulting gains or losses are included in current operations.
Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Costs of major additions and improvements are capitalized.
Other Real Estate - Other real estate is comprised of properties acquired through foreclosure or negotiated settlement. The carrying value of these properties is lower of cost or fair value less estimated selling
expenses. Loan losses arising from the acquisition of these properties are charged against the allowance for loan losses. Any subsequent market reductions required are charged to other real estate expense. Revenues and expenses associated with maintaining
or disposing of foreclosed properties are recorded during the period in which they are incurred.
Income Taxes - The provision for income taxes is based on income as reported in the financial statements after interest income from state and municipal securities is excluded. Also, certain items of income and
expenses are recognized in different time periods for financial statement purposes than for income tax purposes. Thus, provisions for deferred taxes are recorded in recognition of such timing differences.
Deferred taxes are provided for by utilizing a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are
recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of
management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
The Company and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return. In addition, state income tax returns are filed individually by the Companies in accordance with state statutes.
Earnings per Common Share - Basic EPS is computed by dividing income applicable to common shares by the weighted average shares outstanding; no dilution for any potentially convertible shares is included in the
calculation. Diluted EPS, reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of
the company. At September 30, 2000 the company had no convertible shares or other contracts to issue common stock. The weighted average number of shares of common stock used
Page 10
to calculate basic EPS was 2,646,952 and 2,667,731 for the three months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, and 2,651,035 and 2,669,304 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.
Statements of Cash Flows - For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash and due from banks and interest bearing deposits in other banks.
Comprehensive Income - Components of comprehensive income are revenues, expenses, gains, and losses that under GAAP are included in comprehensive income but excluded from net income. The components of comprehensive
income are disclosed in the Statements of Changes in Stockholders Equity for all periods presented.

Third Quarter in Review
For the third quarter of 2000, net income was $1.3 million compared to $1.1 million for the same quarter of 1999. Net interest income increased $241 thousand, other non-interest income increased $122 thousand, other expenses
increased $179 thousand, and, accordingly, income taxes increased $12 thousand. Earnings per common share were $0.49 and $0.42 for the third quarters of 2000 and 1999, respectively. Return on average assets on an annualized basis was 1.42% for the current
quarter, and 1.30% for the same quarter of 1999. Cash dividends were $.185 per share for the current quarter and $.180 per share for the same quarter of 1999.
For the first nine months of 2000, net income was $3.8 million compared to $3.7 million for the same period of 1999. Earnings per common share were $1.43 and $1.37 for the first nine months of 2000 and 1999, respectively.
Return on average assets on an annualized basis was
Page 12
1.41% and 1.37% for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. For the same periods, return on average equity on an annualized basis was 12.64% and 12.74%. Cash dividends were $0.555 and $0.540 per share, respectively, for
the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2000 and 1999.
Net interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis (FTE) for the current quarter was $4.0 million, $246 thousand greater than that of the third quarter of 1999. The net interest margin (FTE) was 4.67% for the current
quarter and 4.76% for the same quarter of 1999. For the nine months ended September 30, 2000, net interest income (FTE) was $11.9 million compared to $11.1 million for the same period of 1999. The net interest margin (FTE) was 4.74% and 4.77%,
respectively, for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2000 and 1999.
During the third quarter of 2000, in comparison with the same quarter of 1999, average loans outstanding increased $32.1 million or 15.8% to $234.6 million. Average total deposits for the current quarter increased $25.1
million or 8.4% to $325.1 million when compared to the average total deposits for the same quarter of 1999. Average total assets for the current quarter increased $28.3 million or 8.3% to $370.3 million when compared to the total average assets of the
third quarter of 1999. For the nine months ended September 30, 2000, in comparison with the same period in 1999, average loans outstanding increased $35.4 million or 18.4% to $228.1 million. Average total deposits for the current nine-month period
increased $20.4 million or 6.9% to $317.2 million when compared to the average total deposits for the same period of 1999. Average total assets at September 30, 2000 increased $24.0 million or 7.1% to $361.9 million when compared to the total average
assets at September 30, 1999.
Earnings Analysis
Net Interest Income - The primary source of earnings for the Bank is net interest income; the difference between interest and fees generated from interest-earning assets less interest expense for interest-bearing
liabilities. For analytical purposes, net interest income is presented on a tax equivalent basis, using a 34% tax rate. Certain earning assets are exempt from income taxes, therefore a tax equivalent adjustment is included so that tax exempt earning
assets are tax equivalent and comparable with other taxable earning assets. The primary factors that affect net interest income are changes in volume and mix of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, along with changes in market rates.
Net interest income (FTE) for the current quarter of 2000 was $4.0 million, 6.5% greater than the same quarter of 1999. The improvement in net interest income can be primarily attributed to the change in volume and in the
rate of loans that provided an increase of $844 thousand in interest income when comparing the third quarter of 2000 to the third quarter of 1999. Offsetting this primarily were increases in interest expense caused by growth in volume as well as an
increase in rates paid on certificates of deposits and money market accounts. Net interest income (FTE) for the first nine months of 2000 was $11.9 million, 6.8% greater than the same period of 1999. The improvement in net interest income can be primarily
attributed to the change in volume of loans that provided an increase of $2.3 million in interest income when comparing the first nine months of 2000 to the same period in 1999. Again, higher rates and increased volumes
Page 13
in certificates of deposit and money market deposit accounts increased interest expense, somewhat offsetting the increase in loan interest income.
Earning Assets, Interest-Bearing Liabilities, and Net Interest Spread - During the current quarter of 2000, average earning assets were $342.8 million, an increase of $26.5 million or 8.4% over the third quarter of
1999. The trend in earning assets over the quarters compared continues to show a shift in the mix of earning assets toward the loan portfolio from the securities portfolio as shown in the table Earning Asset Structure. Management's strategy continues to
increase the level of earning assets as well as to alter their mix by including a greater percentage of higher yielding loans over lower yielding securities and other short-term investments. The Bank's primary market area currently enjoys a strong
economic climate that provides good lending opportunities. The average loan portfolio increased $32.1 million or 15.8% when compared to the quarter ended September 30, 1999. However, there is no guarantee that either similar levels of growth or the
current strong economic climate will continue into the future.
The trend over the quarters compared shows an increase in interest bearing liabilities with growth in certificates of deposit and money market accounts. In addition, the use of wholesale funding in the form of other
borrowings increased from the quarter ended September 30, 1999 to the quarter ended September 30, 2000. This enabled continued growth while simultaneously controlling the cost of interest-bearing liabilities. The Bank also benefited from an increase in
volume of non-interest bearing deposits, even though its relationship as a percentage of total deposits decreased slightly. The Bank continually strives to attract a broad core deposit base consisting of individual and commercial customers.
For the current quarter of 2000, the average yield on earning assets was 8.12% while the average cost of interest bearing liabilities was 4.43%, producing a net interest spread (FTE) of 3.69%. The net interest margin (FTE)
was 4.67% for the current quarter of 2000. In comparison, the net interest margin (FTE) for the same quarter of 1999 was 4.76%. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities during the third quarter of 1999 was 3.72%, while the yield on average earning assets
was 7.61%, producing a net interest spread of 3.89%. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2000, the average yield on earning assets was 8.01% while the average cost of interest bearing liabilities was 4.21%, producing a net interest spread (FTE)
of 3.80%. The net interest margin (FTE) was 4.74% for the first nine months of 2000. In comparison, the net interest margin (FTE) for the same period of 1999 was 4.77%. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities during the first nine months of 1999 was
3.69%, while the yield on average earning assets was 7.61%, producing a net interest spread of 3.92%.
The table of Average Balance Sheets and Interest Rate Analysis for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2000, June 30, 2000, and September 30, 1999, and the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, and
the corresponding table of Interest Differentials detail the effects that the changes in the average balances outstanding of assets and liabilities and the changes in interest yield and interest costs have had on net interest income for the respective
periods. Also, the tables of Earning Asset Structure and Deposit Structure show a more condensed, descriptive analysis of the common size percentage changes in earning assets and deposit mix over the quarterly periods being analyzed.

Provision for Loan Losses
Provision for Loan Losses were $225 thousand for both of the third quarters of 2000 and 1999. For the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, Provisions for Loan Losses were $600 thousand and $675 thousand,
respectively. See the discussion of "Allowance for Loan Losses".
Other Income
Other income for the current quarter was $1.1 million, an increase of $122 thousand or 12.5% compared to $980 thousand for the same quarter of 1999. Primarily accounting for this increase were gain on purchased assets
and network fee income, which increased $59 thousand and $21 thousand, respectively, when compared to the three months ended September 30, 1999. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2000, other income was $3.3 million, a decrease of $23 thousand
or 0.1% from the same period in 1999. The main cause for this was gain on purchased assets, which decreased $262 thousand when compared to the first nine months of 1999.
Gain on purchased assets was $218 thousand for the current quarter and $159 thousand for the same period of 1999. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2000, gain on purchased assets was $638 thousand, a reduction of
$262 thousand or 29.1% when compared to the same period of 1999. These gains are recognition of the collection of principal on certain loans acquired in past bank acquisitions. There was a greater than normal payment activity on such loans in the
comparable periods ended September 30, 1999. The Bank continues to pursue the collection of these loans. Future gains on these assets, however, are indeterminable.
Other Expenses
Other expenses were $3.0 million for the third quarter of 2000, an increase of $179 thousand or 6.3% over the same quarter of 1999. Salaries and employee benefits were $1.5 million for the current quarter compared to
$1.4 million for the same of quarter of 1999. Net occupancy expense was $434 thousand for the current quarter, compared to $368 thousand for the second quarter of 1999. Other operating expenses were $1.1 million for the current quarter, a decrease of $57
thousand or 5.1% compared to the same quarter of 1999. Primarily accounting for the decrease in other operating expenses was a reduction in legal and professional fees.
For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2000, other expenses were $8.9 million, an increase of $736 thousand or 9.0% over the same period of 1999. Salaries and employee benefits were $4.4 million for the current
period compared to $4.1 million for the same period in 1999. Net occupancy expense was $1.2 million for the current nine months, compared to $1.0 million for the first nine months of 1999. Other operating expenses were $3.2 million for the current period,
an increase of $160 thousand or 5.2% compared to the same period of 1999.
Page 16
Applicable Income Taxes
Applicable income taxes for the current quarter were $527 thousand compared to $515 thousand for the third quarter of 1999. Effective tax rates were 29.1% for the third quarter of 2000 and 31.6% for the quarter ended
September 30, 1999. For the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 effective tax rates were 30.9% and 32.4%, respectively. The Company's effective income tax expense as a percentage of pretax income is different from statutory rates due to
tax-exempt interest income earned from investments in state and municipal bonds. Interest income from state and municipal bonds is generally exempt from federal income taxes.
Liquidity
Liquidity management is the process of ensuring that the Company's assets and liabilities are properly structured to meet the withdrawals of its depositors, fund loan commitments, and satisfy other funding requirements. The
Company's primary source of funds is the Bank's core deposit base. During the quarter, average core deposits were approximately $298.7 million or 91.9% of total average deposits and 80.7% of total average assets. For a comparison with prior period
quarters see the table entitled Deposit Structure. Other sources of liquidity are maturities in the investment portfolio, maturities and repayments in the loan portfolio, and advances from the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta, the Federal Home Loan Bank of
Dallas, and other wholesale funding entities. Management continually evaluates the maturities and mix of its earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities to monitor its ability to meet current and future obligations and to achieve maximum net interest
income. Due to the stability of the core deposit base as noted above, the maturities of the investment portfolio, cash flows from the loan portfolio, and the availability of wholesale funding, management does not anticipate any difficulties in meeting the
needs of its depositors and in funding future loan commitments.
Interest Rate Sensitivity
Interest rate risk is the measurement of risk exposure or changes in net interest income and subsequently net income given changes in the external interest rate markets. This possible risk exposure is produced by the
different repricing intervals of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, the changes in the mix of such assets and liabilities, and the growth of such assets and liabilities. One measurement of interest rate risk is gap analysis. The gap
matches the repricing of interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities for selected intervals. Gap analysis is a static measurement based on an individual point in time. This interest rate risk measurement process may not indicate actual rate exposure
given contractual maturity and repricing period inconsistencies.
Management also measures interest rate risk exposure by the process of dynamic income simulation. This process measures possible levels of exposure more accurately given the ability to better identify contractual maturities
and repricing periods. Key assumptions used in the simulation model include the relative timing of prepayments on mortgage-related assets and the cash flows and maturities of other financial instruments. These assumptions are intrinsically uncertain and,
as a result, the model cannot specifically estimate net interest income or precisely
Page 17
predict the impact of a change in interest rates on net income or stockholders' equity. Actual results will differ from the simulated results due to the timing, magnitude, and frequency of interest rate changes and changes in market conditions and
management strategies, among other factors.
The Bank's objective is to limit the impact on net interest income from a gradual change in interest rates of 200 basis points over twelve months to 10% of projected net interest income. Based on the results of a dynamic
income simulation at September 30, 2000; the Bank would expect an increase in net interest income of $43 thousand in the event of a gradual 200 basis point increase in interest rates, and an decrease of $2 thousand in the event of a gradual 200 basis
point decrease in interest rates. Both of these changes are well within the Bank's interest rate risk policy limits.
For gap analysis, prepayment assumptions are applied to loans reflective of historical experience and employing a "flat-rate" interest rate change scenario. Decay rate methodology is applied to non fixed rate deposit
accounts to arrive at the principal and interest cash flows used in the market value calculations given FDIC regulatory guidelines as set forth in FDICIA 305. First, rate sensitive and non rate sensitive balances are separated. Higher decay rates force
rate sensitive cash flows to occur within one year. Decay rates are then input for the non rate sensitive funds. These decay rates spread the non rate sensitive deposit balances out as far as the FDIC regulatory guidelines allow in FDICIA 305. Decay rate
assumptions implemented are based on a flat rate environment and at management's discretion.
The Bank has established decay rate assumptions based on historical data collection on MMDA, Savings Accounts, Now Accounts, and Non Interest-Bearing Accounts. The assumptions are based on account type sensitivity patterns
given the change in the Bank's benchmark for pricing and the change in the relationship each account type has to total deposits. Decay rates are updated at each modeling session if warranted by rate changes in the market or changes in non rate sensitivity
patterns given the account type. The identification of the non rate sensitive portion of such accounts provides a more complete picture of the actual core deposit base which may not reprice in the same manner as the rate sensitive portion.
The Interest Rate Sensitivity Table, on page 19 presents the Bank's interest rate sensitivity position at September 30, 2000, using gap analysis, based on the expected maturity intervals of interest rate sensitive assets and
liabilities. The table indicates that the Company's interest-bearing liabilities exceed its interest-earning assets at the one year point in time suggesting the Bank is negatively rate sensitive. This table does not necessarily reflect the impact of
interest rate movements on the Bank's net income because the effective maturities or repricing of certain assets and liabilities is subject to competition and other limitations. As a result, certain assets and liabilities indicated as maturing or
repricing within a stated period may in fact mature or reprice at different times and at different volumes.
The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas (FHLB). The FHLB provides the Bank the ability to further match the rates and maturities of its funding with those of earning assets. Also, the FHLB provides the
Bank the ability to offer long term, fixed-rate loans to its customer base with minimal additional interest rate risk exposure.

Financial Instruments
In the normal course of business the Company enters into agreements which, for accounting purposes, are considered off-balance sheet activities. These agreements are loans and lines of credit commitments to customers to
extend credit at specified rates, duration, and purpose. The commitments adhere to normal lending policy, collateral requirements, and credit reviews. Available loan commitments at September 30, 2000 and 1999, were $23.9 million and $20.2 million,
respectively. The Bank had letters of credit of $350 thousand issued at September 30, 2000 compared to $425 thousand at September 30, 1999. Additionally, the Bank has deposit customers who have credit lines available to them through their deposit
accounts. At September 30, 2000 the available portion of these credit lines was $214 thousand compared to $305 thousand at September 30, 1999. These credit lines are immediately cancelable by the Bank. The credit lines provide a source of income to the
Bank through service fees charged and interest earned on balances outstanding. The credit lines are reviewed regularly and do not pose a material credit risk to the Bank. To date the Bank does not have instruments outstanding that can be specifically
described as financial guarantees which guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party other than the financial standby letters of credit described above. The Bank also issues credit cards. The aggregate credit available was $5.6 million at
September 30, 2000 and $5.3 million at September 30, 1999. Applicants are reviewed through normal lending policies and credit reviews.
The Bank is not a party to financial instruments defined as interest rate exchange agreements, financial futures, or financial options. Therefore, the Bank is not exposed to the additional interest rate risk inherent in
those instruments.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The Allowance for Loan Losses was $4.3 million at September 30, 2000, or 1.8%, of loans outstanding. At September 30, 1999 the Allowance for Loan Losses was $3.9 million, or 1.9%, of loans outstanding. Net charge-offs
(recoveries) were $7 thousand for the current quarter, versus ($131) thousand for the same quarter of 1999. Gross charge-offs as a percentage of average loans were .01% and (.06%) in the third quarters of 2000 and 1999, respectively. Recoveries as a
percentage of gross charge-offs for the current quarter were 66.7% versus 1,216.4% for the same quarter of 1999. For the nine months ended September 30, 2000, net charge-offs (recoveries) were $471 thousand, versus $313 thousand for the same period of
1999. Gross charge-offs as a percentage of average loans were 0.31% and 0.22% in the first nine months of 2000 and 1999, respectively. Recoveries as a percentage of gross charge-offs were 11.0% versus 35.9%, respectively, for the nine-month periods ended
September 30, 2000 and 1999.
The Allowance for Loan Losses account represents amounts available for possible future losses based on modeling and management's evaluation of the loan portfolio. To ascertain the potential losses in the portfolio,
management reviews past due loans on a monthly basis. Additionally, the loan review department performs an ongoing review of the loan portfolio. Loans are reviewed for compliance to the Bank's lending policy and the borrower's current
Page 20
financial condition and ability to meet scheduled repayment terms.
The Bank maintains the balance in the Allowance for Loan Losses in order to accept any adverse loan relationships that have the potential to occur in the future. Impaired loans are individually evaluated and specific
portions of the allowance are allocated to each loan, based on collateral values and the present value of estimated cash flows. The remainder of the allowance is unallocated and is tested for adequacy by comparing its level to the sum of: a percentage of
the balances of loans graded substandard plus the sum of the non-impaired, non-substandard remainder of the loan portfolio multiplied by a model-generated "potential default" factor. The model analyzes various classes of loans by industry to determine the
inherent default risk in each class. These risks are then quantified into potential default factors, which are applied to each class of loans in the Bank's portfolio. As the process applies the total "potential default'' factor to the non classified
portion of the loan portfolio, it accounts for additional reserves necessary because of loan growth.
Also in determining the level of Allowance for Loan Losses, management considers the uncertainty in estimating loan losses, including the possibility of improper risk ratings and specific reserve allocations, as well as the
uncertainty in predicting the future performance of the economy in the Bank's market area. As the Bank's ratio of loans to deposits continues to increase, so will the potential for problem loans increase at a rate uncommon to the Bank's historical loan
loss experience given the smaller loan to deposit ratios of the past.
Non-performing Assets
Non-performing assets include non-accrual loans, impaired loans, repossessions and other real estate. Generally, loans are considered non-accrual when the interest becomes 90 days past due or when there is uncertainty about
the repayment of principal and interest in accordance with the terms of the loans. Loans past due 90 days and still accruing at September 30, 2000 and 1999 were $206 thousand and $524 thousand, respectively. Impaired loans having recorded investments of
$5.3 million at September 30, 2000 compared to $5.0 million at September 30, 1999 have been recognized in conformity with SFAS No. 114 as amended by SFAS No. 118. The total Allowance for Loan Losses related to these loans was $1.2 million at September 30,
2000 compared to $1.2 million at September 30, 1999. Interest received on impaired loans amounted to $344 thousand at September 30, 2000 compared to $328 thousand at September 30, 1999. Non-accrual loans not included in impaired loans were immaterial at
September 30, 2000 and 1999.
Other real estate is properties held for sale acquired through foreclosure or negotiated settlement of debt. Other real estate was $33 thousand at September 30, 2000 and $435 thousand at the close of the third quarter of
1999. Repossessions are movable assets acquired through foreclosure or negotiated settlement of debt. There were no repossessions at September 30, 2000 and 1999.
In the process of reviewing the loan portfolio, management acknowledges certain potential problem loans that are not classified as impaired, non-accrual, greater than 90 days delinquent, or
Page 21
restructured. Management does not feel that any of these potential problem loans are reasonably likely to have or will have a material effect on the Company's liquidity, capital resources, or results of operations.
Regulatory Matters
The Bank is subject to various capital requirements administered by the Federal Banking Agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly discretionary actions by regulators
that, if undertaken, could have a material effect on the Bank's financial statements. Various regulations require the Bank to meet specific capital adequacy guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank's assets, liabilities, and certain
off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank's capital classification is 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 Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios as set forth in the section entitled Capital Adequacy below.
Management is unaware, regulatory or otherwise, of any known trends, events or uncertainties which are reasonably likely to have or will have a material effect on the Company's liquidity, capital resources, or results of
operations.
Capital Adequacy
The strength of a company is in its capital, earnings history, asset quality, and management. Capital can be increased through the retention of earnings and the issuance of equity stock. Management feels the current trend of
earnings and dividend distribution is sufficient to maintain its capital adequacy requirements.
The Bank is required to maintain minimum amounts of capital to total risk-weighted assets, as defined by the regulators. The guidelines require total capital of 8.00%, half of which must be Tier 1 capital. The computation of
risk-weighted ratios follow the transitional rule, which currently does not include the unrealized gain (loss) on securities available for sale in Tier 1 capital.
The leverage ratio consists of Tier 1 capital as a percentage of average total assets. The minimum leverage ratio for all banks and bank holding companies is 3.00%. This minimum ratio is dependent upon the strength of the
individual bank or holding company and may be increased by regulatory authorities on an individual basis. The 3.00% minimum was established to make certain that all banks have a minimum capital level to support their assets, regardless of risk profile. As
shown in the table Capital Adequacy Ratios below, the Company's ratios for the reporting periods exceed regulatory minimums.

Equity |
The Company's dividend policy is determined by its Board of Directors. The current policy is to maintain dividends at a level which ensures that the Company is able to maintain sufficient regulatory capital levels. The
Company's primary source of funds is the dividends received from the Bank. Under current dividend limitations, the Bank could pay, without regulatory approval, dividends of approximately $4.4 million. The Company carries no debt, therefore future
liquidity needs are limited to the payment of any declared dividends. Should a regulatory agency limit the Bank from paying dividends, the Company maintains sufficient liquidity to maintain its operations.
The Year 2000
The Bank formed a Year 2000 committee to identify and provide for potential costs and uncertainties related to the Year 2000 date change. "Mission-critical" systems as well as business-resumption contingency plans were
implemented and tested. The Year 2000 threshold was crossed with no problems encountered to date that effected significantly the Company's liquidity, capital resources, or results of operation. The Bank will remain vigilant for the remainder of the year
2000 for any undiscovered date-change problems.
The discussion entitled "Year 2000" includes certain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Relief Act of 1995 (PSLRA). This statement is included for the purpose of availing the
Company of the protections of the safe harbor provisions of the PSLRA. Management's ability to predict the results or the effects of Year 2000 issues is inherently uncertain and subject to factors that may cause actual results to materially differ from
Page 23
those anticipated. Factors that could affect actual results include: the possibility that contingency plans and remediation efforts will not operate as intended, the Bank's failure to timely or completely identify all software and hardware applications
that require remediation, unexpected costs, and the general uncertainty associated with the impact of Year 2000 issues on the banking industry, the Bank's customers, vendors, and others with whom it conducts business. Readers are cautioned not to place
undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.

Management's Responsibility for Financial Reporting
The management of One American Corp. and Subsidiaries is responsible for the preparation of the financial statements, related financial data, and other information in this quarterly report. The financial statements are
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and include some amounts that are necessarily based on management's informed estimates and judgments, with consideration given to materiality. All financial information contained in this
quarterly report is consistent with that in the financial statements.
Management fulfills its responsibility for the integrity, objectivity, consistency, and fair presentation of the financial statements and financial information through an accounting system and related internal accounting
controls that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded and transactions are authorized and recorded in accordance with established policies and procedures. The concept of reasonable assurance is based on the recognition
that the cost of a system of internal accounting controls should not exceed the related benefits. As an integral part of the system of internal accounting controls, One American Corp. and Subsidiaries has a professional staff who monitors compliance with
and assesses the effectiveness of the system of internal accounting controls and coordinates audit coverage with the independent public accountant.
The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, composed solely of outside directors, meets periodically with management, and the independent public accountant to review matters relating to financial reporting, internal
accounting control and the nature, extent and results of the audit effort. The independent public accountant has direct access to the Audit Committee with or without the presence of management.
The financial statements as of December 31, 1999 were examined by Hannis T. Bourgeois, L L P, independent public accountants, who rendered an independent professional opinion. The financial statements as of September 30,
2000 were reviewed by Hannis T. Bourgeois, L L P.

Independent Accountant's Report
October 18, 2000
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors
One American Corp. and Subsidiaries
Vacherie, Louisiana
We have reviewed the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets of One American Corp. and Subsidiaries as of September 30, 2000 and 1999, the related Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and nine month periods then
ended, and the related Consolidated Statements of Changes in Stockholders' Equity and Cash Flows for the nine month periods then ended.
We previously audited and expressed our unqualified opinion in our report dated January 14, 2000 on the Consolidated Balance Sheet of One American Corp. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1999.
We conducted our reviews in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial information consists principally of obtaining an understanding of the
system for the preparation of interim financial information, applying analytical review procedures to financial data, and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an examination
in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
Respectfully submitted,
/s/ Hannis T. Bourgeois
