PART I
Item 1. Business:
Community Banks, Inc. (Bank) is a bank holding company whose banking
subsidiary is Community Banks, N.A. (CBNA) and whose non-banking subsidiaries
are Community Banks Investments, Inc. (CBI) and Community Banks Life Insurance
Company, Inc. (CBLIC).
The Bank conducts a full service commercial banking business and provides
trust services in northern Dauphin County, Northumberland County, western
Schuylkill County, and southern Luzerene County. The Bank currently has fifteen
offices. There are 57 offices of commercial banks and savings and loan
associations within its market area with which the Bank competes. Deposits of
the Bank represent approximately 11% of the total deposits in the market area.
The Bank has six offices in Dauphin County, two offices in Northumberland
County, five offices in Schuylkill County, and two offices in Luzerne County.
Like other depository institutions, the Bank has been subjected to
competition from brokerage firms, money market funds, consumer finance and
credit card companies and other companies providing financial services and
credit to consumers. As a result of federal legislation, regulatory restrictions
previously imposed on the Bank with respect to establishing money market fund
accounts have been eliminated and the Bank is now better able to compete with
other financial institutions in its service area with respect to interest rates
paid on time and savings deposits, service charges on deposit accounts and
interest rates charged on loans.
During 1986 the Bank formed CBLIC to provide credit life insurance to its
consumer credit borrowers. Total premiums earned were $396,000 for the year
ended December 31, 1994. During 1985 the Bank formed CBI to make investments
primarily in equity securities of other banks. Total assets of CBI at December
31, 1994 were $1,735,000.
The Bank has approximately 172 full and part-time employees and considers
its employee relations to be satisfactory.
Community Banks, Inc. is registered as a bank holding company with the
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System in accordance with the
requirements of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956. It is subject to
regulation by the Federal Reserve Board and the Comptroller of the Currency.
In 1989, the Federal Reserve Board issued final risk-based capital
guidelines for bank holding companies which were phased in through December 31,
1992. The intent of regulatory capital guidelines is to measure capital adequacy
based upon the credit risk of various assets and off-balance sheet items. Risk
categories, weighted at 0%, 20%, 50% and 100%, are specifically identified. The
sum of the results of each such category is then related to the adjusted capital
account of the Company. A minimum required capital ratio at December 31, 1994,
was 8 percent. The Bank's December 31, 1994 ratio approximated 17%.
Subsequently, in August 1990 the board announced approval of capital to total
assets (leverage) guidelines. This minimum leverage ratio was set at 4% and
would apply only to those banking organizations receiving a regulatory composite
1 rating. Most banking organizations will be required to maintain a leverage
ratio ranging from 1 to 2 percentage points above the minimum standard. The
Bank's leverage ratio at December 31, 1994, approximated 10.%. Risk-based
capital requirements replace previous capital guidelines which established
minimum primary and total capital requirements.
The following summarizes the Bank's capital adequacy position:
Required
Bank Regulatory Capital
(in thousands) December 31, 1994 December 31, 1994
Risk-based capital $34,136 17.2% $15,877 8.0%

<F1>
(a) The determination to discontinue the accrual of interest on nonperforming loans is
made on the individual case basis. Such factors as the character and size of the loan,
quality of the collateral and the historical creditworthiness of the borrower and/or
guarantors are considered by management in assessing the collectibility of such amounts.
The approximate amount that would have been accrued on those loans for which interest was
discontinued in 1994 was $77,000. Interest income from these loans would have approximated
$66,000 in 1993.
The change in nonperforming loans is primarily a result of the impact of
economic conditions upon the loan portfolio. The economic outlook remains
uncertain. If the economy in the Bank's trading area improves this could have a
positive impact on delinquency trends and collectibility of loans. However,
the commercial real estate market in the Bank's trading area remains
stagnant. The ability of borrowers to liquidate collateral is dependent upon
the demand for commercial real estate projects and a buyer's ability to
finance commercial real estate projects. Prolonged continued weakness in the
commercial real estate market could result in an increase in delinquencies or
losses in commercial real estate loans.

The allowance for loans losses is based upon management's continuing
evaluation of the loan portfolio. A review as to loan quality, current
macro-economic conditions and delinquency status is performed at least on a
quarterly basis. The provision for loan losses is adjusted quarterly based upon
current review. The table on page 10 presents an allocation by loan
categories of the allowance for loan losses at December 31 for the last five
years. In retrospect, the specific allocation in any particular category may
prove excessive or inadequate and consequently may be reallocated in the future
to reflect the then current condition. Accordingly, the entire allowance is
available to absorb losses in any category.
The provision for loan losses totalled $462,000 for the year ended December 31,
1994 compared to $702,000, $683,000, $737,000, and $662,000 for the years ended
December 31, 1993, 1992 1991, and 1990, respectively. The 1994 provision for
loan losses reflected managements' continued concern for the strength of the
local economy. The relationship of the allowance for loan losses to loans at
year end approximated 1.14% compared to ratios of .89% to 1.15% for the
previous four years. In reviewing the adequacy of the allowance for loan
losses, management considered the relationship of nonaccrual loans, other real
estate owned, and accruing loans contractually past due 90 days or more to
total assets. This relationship approximated .49%,.52%, .62%, .80%, and .60%,
at year-end 1994, 1993, 1992, 1991, and 1990, respectively.

INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY
The excess of interest-earning assets over interest-bearing
liabilities which are expected to mature or reprice within a given period is
commonly referred to as the "GAP" for that period. For an institution with a
negative GAP, the amount of income earned on its assets fluctuates less than the
cost of its liabilities in response to changes in the prevailing rates of
interest during the period. Accordingly, in a period of decreasing interest
rates, institutions with a negative GAP will experience a smaller decrease in
the yield on their assets than in the cost of their liabilities. Conversely, in
a period of rising interest rates, institutions with a negative GAP face a
smaller increase in the yield on their assets than in the cost of their
liabilities. A decreasing interest rate environment is favorable to institutions
with a negative GAP because more of their liabilities than their assets adjust
during the period and, accordingly, the decrease in the cost of their
liabilities is greater than the decrease in the yield on their assets.
The negative GAP between the Bank's interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities maturing or repricing within one year approximated
10.3% of total assets at December 31, 1994.
Significant maturity/repricing assumptions include the presentation of
all savings and NOW accounts as being 100% interest rate sensitive. Equity
securities are reflected in the shortest time interval. Assumed paydowns on
mortgage-backed securities and loans have also been included in all time
intervals.
The following table sets forth the scheduled repricing or maturity of
the Bank's interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities at December
31, 1994.

Information regarding executive compensation is omitted from this
report as the holding company has filed a definitive proxy statement for its
annual meeting of shareholders to be held May 2, 1995; and the information
included therein with respect to this item is incorporated herein by reference.
Pension Plan:
The Bank maintains a pension plan for its employees. An employee
becomes a participant in the pension plan on January 1 or July 1 after
completion of one year of service (12 continuous months) and attainment of the
age 21 years. The cost of the pension is actuarially determined and paid by the
Bank. The amount of monthly pension is equal to 1.15% of average monthly pay up
to $650, plus .60% of average monthly pay in excess of $650, multiplied by the
number of years of service completed by an employee. Average
-16-
monthly pay is based upon the 5 consecutive plan years of highest pay
preceding retirement. The maximum amount of annual compensation used in
determining retirement benefits is $150,000. A participant is eligible for early
retirement after attainment of the age of 60 years and the completion of 5 years
of service. The early retirement benefit is the actuarial equivalent of the
pension accrued to the date of early retirement. Thomas L. Miller and Ernest L.
Lowe have been credited with 36 and 10 years of service, respectively, under the
pension plan as of December 31, 1994. The amounts shown on the following table
assume an annual retirement benefit for an employee who chose a straight-line
annuity and who is presently 50 years old and who will retire at the age of 65
years.

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation:
Community Banks, Inc. (Corporation) is a bank holding company
whose wholly-owned subsidiaries include Community Banks, N.A.
(CBNA), Community Banks Investments, Inc. (CBI) and Community
Banks Life Insurance Company (CBLIC). All significant
intercompany transactions have been eliminated.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
The more significant accounting policies of the Corporation
are:
Investment Securities:
At January 1, 1994, the Corporation adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain
Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" ("SFAS 115"). This
statement requires enterprises to classify debt and equity
securities as either "held-to-maturity," "available-for-sale,"
or "trading." Investments for which management has the intent,
and the corporation has the ability, to hold to maturity are
carried at the lower of cost or market adjusted for amortization
of premium and accretion of discount. Amortization and
accretion are calculated principally on the interest method.
Securities bought and held primarily for the purpose of selling
them in the near term are classified as "trading" and reported
at fair value. Changes in unrealized gains and losses on
"trading" securities are recognized in the Consolidated
Statements of Income. At December 31, 1994, there were no
securities identified as "trading." All other securities are
classified as "available-for-sale" and reported at fair value.
Changes in unrealized gains and losses for "available-for-sale"
securities, net of applicable taxes, are recorded as a component
of shareholder's equity.
Securities classified as "available-for-sale" include
investments management intends to use as part of its
asset/liability management strategy, and that may be sold in
response to changes in interest rates, resultant prepayment risk
and other factors. Realized gains and losses on the sale of
securities are recognized using the specific identification
method and are included in Other Income in the Consolidated
Statements of Income.
Allowance for Loan Losses:
The allowance for loan loss is based on those factors which, in
management's judgement, deserve current recognition in
estimating possible loan losses, including past loan loss
experience and changes in: a) economic conditions prevailing in
the Corporation's geographic lending area; b) character and size
of the loan portfolio; and c) overall credit-worthiness of
borrowers as monitored through delinquency analysis and loan
reviews.
Premises and Equipment:
Premises and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated
depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using accelerated and
straight-line methods over the estimated useful lives of the
assets. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred, while
major additions and improvements are capitalized. Gain or loss
on retirement or disposal of individual assets is recorded as
income or expense in the period of retirement or disposal.
Goodwill:
Goodwill which represents the excess of purchase price,
including acquisition costs over the fair market value of net
assets acquired under the purchase method of accounting is
amortized on a straight line basis over 15 years.
Pension Plan:
The Corporation has a noncontributory defined benefit pension
plan covering substantially all employees. Pension costs are
funded currently subject to the full funding limitation imposed
under federal income tax regulations.
Income Taxes:
In 1992, the Company elected the early adoption of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income
Taxes," which requires recognition of deferred tax liabilities
and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events
that have been included in the financial statements or tax
returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets
are determined based on the difference between the financial
statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted
tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are
expected to reverse (see Note 10). The cumulative effect of
this change did not have a material effect on reported income
for 1992.
Interest Income on Loans:
Interest income on commercial, consumer, and mortgage loans is
recorded on the interest method. Nonaccrual loans are those on
which the accrual of interest has ceased and where all
previously accrued and unpaid interest is reversed. Loans,
other than consumer loans, are placed on nonaccrual status when
principal or interest is past due 90 days or more and the
collateral may be inadequate to recover principal and interest,
or immediately, if in the opinion of management, full collection
is doubtful. Interest accrued but not collected as of the date
of placement on nonaccrual status is reversed and charged
against current income. Subsequent cash payments received
either are applied to the outstanding principal balance or
recorded as interest income, depending upon management's
assessment of the ultimate collectibility of principal and
interest. Loan origination fees and certain direct origination
costs are capitalized and recognized as an adjustment of the
yield on the related loan.
Other Real Estate Owned:
Real estate acquired through foreclosure is carried at the
lower of the recorded amount of the loan for which the
foreclosed property previously served as collateral or the
current appraised value of the property. Prior to foreclosure,
the recorded amount of the loan is written down, if necessary,
to the appraised value of the real estate to be acquired by
charging the allowance for loan losses. During 1994, 1993, and
1992 non-cash transactions related to real estate acquired
through foreclosure totalled $322,000, $646,000, and $134,000,
respectively.
Subsequent to foreclosure, gains or losses on the sale of and
losses on the periodic revaluation of real estate acquired
through foreclosure are credited or charged to noninterest
expense. Costs of maintaining and operating foreclosed property
are expensed as incurred. Expenditures to improve foreclosed
properties are capitalized only if expected to be recovered;
otherwise, they are expensed.
Statement of Cash Flows:
Cash and cash equivalents included cash and due from banks and
federal funds sold. The Corporation made cash payments of
$1,276,000, $1,268,000, and $1,229,000, and $8,545,000,
$9,085,000, and $10,156,000 for income taxes and interest,
respectively, in 1994, 1993, and 1992.
Earnings Per Common Share:
Net income per share is computed based upon the weighted
average shares of common stock outstanding which amounted to
2,053,475, 2,040,911, and 2,014,381 shares for the years ended
December 31, 1994, 1993, and 1992, respectively.

The Corporation has adopted a Long Term Incentive Plan. Under
the plan, awards in the form of Incentive Stock Options,
Nonqualified Stock Options or Stock Appreciation Rights may be
granted to certain Executive Officers and other key employees
selected by a committee of the Board of Directors. The price at
which common stock can be purchased pursuant to the exercise of
options cannot be less than 100% in the case of Incentive Stock
Options and 80% in the case of Nonqualified Stock Options, of
the fair market value of the common stock on the date of the
grant of the option. Options are exercisable starting one year
from the date of grant to the extent of 20.0% to 33.3% a year on
a cumulative basis and expire no later than ten years after the
date of grant. Incentive stock options issued under the plan
totalled 22,800, 21,350, 18,250, 17,750, and 18,000 in 1994,

14. Dividend Restrictions:
CBNA is subject to legal limitations as to the amount of
dividends that can be paid to its shareholder (the Corporation).
The approval of certain banking regulatory authorities is
required if the total of all dividends declared by the bank
exceeds limits as defined by the regulatory authorities. CBNA
could declare dividends in 1995 without regulatory approval of
$5,473,000 plus an additional amount equal to the banks'
retained net profits in 1995 up to the date of any dividend
declaration.
15. Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk:
The Corporation is party to financial instruments with
off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet
the financing needs of its customers and to reduce its own
exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. These financial
instruments include commitments to originate loans and standby
letters of credit. The instruments involve, to varying degrees,
elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the
amount recognized in the consolidated statement of condition.
The contract or notional amounts of those instruments reflect
the extent of involvement the Corporation has in particular
classes of financial instruments.
The Corporation's exposure to credit loss in the event of
nonperformance by the other party to the financial instruments
for loan commitments and standby letters of credit is
represented by the contractual amount of these instruments. The
Corporation uses the same credit policies as it does for
on-balance sheet instruments.
Financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk at December
31, 1994, are as follows:
Contract or Notional Amount
(in thousands)
Financial instruments whose contract amounts
represent credit risk:
Commitments to originate loans $13,550
Unused lines of credit $10,403
Standby letters of credit $985
Unadvanced portions of construction loans $277
Commitments to originate loans are agreements to lend to a
customer provided there is no violation of any condition
established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed
expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require
payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to
expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amount
does not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Lines
of credit are similar to commitments as they have fixed
expiration dates and are driven by certain criteria contained
within the loan agreement. Lines of credit normally do not
extend beyond a period of one year. The Corporation evaluates
each customer's credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The
amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the
Corporation upon extension of credit, is based on management's
credit evaluation of the borrower.
Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by
the Corporation to guarantee the performance by a customer to a
third party. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of
credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending
loan facilities to customers.

17. Fair Values of Financial Instruments:
In December 1991, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
released SFAS No. 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial
Instruments, which requires disclosure of the fair value of all
financial instruments. The FASB previously released SFAS No.
105, Disclosure of Information about Financial Instruments with
Off-Balance-Sheet Risk and Financial Instruments with
Concentrations of Credit Risk, which required similar
disclosures relating to off-balance-sheet financing.
The following methodologies and assumptions were used by the
Corporation to estimate its fair value disclosures:
Cash, interest-bearing time deposits, and federal funds sold:
The carrying values for cash, interest-bearing time deposits,
and federal funds sold equal those assets' fair values.
Investment securities:
Fair values for investment securities are based on quoted
market prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not
available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of
comparable instruments.
Loans:
For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently with no
significant change in credit risk, fair value equals carrying
value. The fair values for fixed-rate residential mortgage
loans, consumer loans, commercial, and commercial real estate
loans are estimated by discounting the future cash flows using
comparable current rates at which similar loans would be made to
borrowers at similar credit risk. The carrying value of accrued
interest adjusted for credit risk equals its fair value. The
fair value of loans held for sale is based on quoted market
prices for similar loans sold in securitization transactions.
Deposit liabilities:
The fair values of demand and savings deposits equal their
carrying values. Statement 107 prohibits adjusting such fair
value for any value from retaining those deposit relationships
in the future. That component, known as a deposit intangible,
is not considered in the value disclosed nor is it recorded in
the balance sheet. The carrying values for variable rate money
market accounts approximate their fair values at the reporting
date. Fair values for fixed-rate certificates of deposit are
estimated using rates currently offered for similar deposits.
Short-term borrowings:
The fair values of short-term borrowings approximate their
carrying values.
Long-term borrowings:
The fair values of the Corporation's long-term borrowings are
estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, based on rates
available to the Corporation for similar types of borrowings.
Off-balance-sheet instruments:
Fair values for the Corporation's off-balance-sheet instruments
(guarantees and commitments) are based on fees currently charged
to enter similar agreements and the counterparties' credit
standing.

audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that
our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated
financial position of Community Banks, Inc. and subsidiaries as

Community Banks, Inc. and Subsidiaries
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
The earnings of Community Banks, Inc. are derived exclusively
from the operations of its wholly owned subsidiaries; Community
Banks, N.A.; Community Banks Investments, Inc.; and Community
Banks Life Insurance Co.
Net income was $2.03 per share in 1994 compared to $1.92 per
share in 1993, and $1.73 in 1992. Net income per share in 1994
was 5.7% more than net income per share in 1993 and 17.3% more
than net income per share in 1992.
Net Interest Income:
The primary determinant of Community Banks, Inc. net income is
net interest income. This is the income which remains after
deducting from the total income generated by earning assets the
interest expense applicable to funds required to support the
earning assets.
Interest income increased $715,000 or 3.5% in 1994, compared to
decreases of $367,000 or 1.7% in 1993, and $1,049,000 or 4.9% in
1992. Interest and fees on loans increased $798,000 or 5.6% in
1994. This was a volume related change caused by an increase in
average balances of $10,969,000 or 6.9%. The decrease of $48,000
or 0.7% in interest and dividends on investment securities was
rate-related. The average balance of tax-exempt securities
increased $4,252,000 or 14.7% in 1994 which resulted in an
increase in tax-exempt interest income. Factors contributing to
the 1993 change included a rate-related decrease in interest and
fees on loans of $492,000 and a volume-related increase of
$85,000 in interest and dividends on investment securities. Two
primary factors contributing to the 1992 decrease in total
interest income were a decrease of $1,596,000 in loan interest
and an increase of $526,000 in interest and dividends on
investment securities.
Interest expense decreased $520,000 or 5.8% in 1994, $1,044,000
or 10.4% in 1993, and $2,339,000 or 18.9% in 1992. Material
factors affecting the 1994 decrease were decreases of $84,000 or
3.2% in savings interest expense and $470,000 or 8.0% in total
time deposit interest expense. These declines were slightly
offset by an increase of $36,000 in interest expense of
short-term borrowings and long-term debt. Although the average
balances of savings accounts increased $12,402,000 or 11.9%, this
increase was more than offset by the decline in the interest rate
of these deposits. The decline in time deposit interest expense
in 1994 was also rate-related. Material factors affecting the
1993 decrease were decreases of $517,000 in savings interest
expense and $780,000 in time deposit interest expense. The
primary cause of the decline in total interest expense in 1992
was a general decline in interest rates which more than offset
the increase in total average interest-bearing liabilities.
Average interest-bearing deposits represented 91.6% of average
total deposits in 1994 compared to 92.4% in 1993 and 92.3% in
1992.
Net interest income increased $1,235,000 or 10.6% in 1994,
compared to $677,000 or 6.2% in 1993 and $1,245,000 or 12.8% in
1992. Average earning assets increased $16,406,000 or 6.3%
compared to $21,496,000 or 9.0% in 1993 and $14,785,000 or 6.6%
in 1992. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased
$13,794,000 or 6.0% in 1994 compared to $18,551,000 or 8.8% in
1993 and $11,603,000 or 5.8% in 1992.
Net Interest Income Margin:
Net interest income margin for 1994 was 5.02% compared to 4.83%
in 1993 and 4.95% in 1992. Interest income to earning assets
declined from 8.28% in 1993 to 8.08% in 1994. Interest expense to
earning assets also decreased from 3.45% to 3.06%. Interest rates
applicable to earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities
(with the exception of the interest rates applicable to Fed funds
sold, short-term debt, long-term debt, and subordinated capital
notes) declined in 1994. Similar declines occurred in 1993 and
1992.
Provision for Loan Losses:
Net loan charge-offs for 1994 were $230,000 compared to $454,000
in 1993 and $561,000 in 1992. The provision for loan losses
charged to income was $462,000 in 1994 compared to $702,000 in
1993 and $683,000 in 1992. Total non-performing loans
approximated $1,158,000, $1,122,000, and $1,551,000 as of
December 31, 1994, 1993, and 1992, respectively. Total
delinquencies as a percentage of total loans approximated 3.9%,
4.9%, and 4.9% at December 31, 1994, 1993, and 1992,
respectively.
Other Income and Other Expenses:
Other income net of security gains decreased $647,000 or 25.5% in
1994 compared to increases of $373,000 or 17.3% in 1993 and
$355,000 or 19.7% in 1992. Most notable was the decrease in gains
on sales of mortgages in the secondary market in 1994. These
sales were composed of only fixed-rate real estate loans extended
specifically for resale. The market value of every loan of this
type equalled or exceeded its carrying value at year ends 1994
and 1993. Management determines at the time the loan is made as
to whether the loan is held for sale or portfolio. Increases in
gains on sales of mortgages in the secondary market contributed
to the 1993 and 1992 increases. These sales were also composed
only of fixed-rate real estate loans extended specifically for
resale. The net increases in securities gains in 1994 resulted
from the recognition of gross gains of $395,000. No losses were
recognized in 1994.
Other expense increased $824,000 or 9.7% in 1994 compared to
$653,000 or 8.4% in 1993, and $522,000 or 7.2% in 1992.
Increases of $409,000 or 10.6% in salaries and employee benefits
and $199,000 or 18.1% in net occupancy expense affected the 1994
increase. Contributing to these increases was the opening of two
new banking offices. Increases of $295,000 or 8.3% in salaries
and benefits and $108,000 or 10.9% in occupancy expense affected
the 1993 increase. Affecting the 1992 change was an increase of
$335,000 or 10.4% in salaries and employee benefits and $66,000
or 15.4% in F.D.I.C. insurance premiums.
Although the provision for income taxes essentially remained
unchanged from 1993 to 1994, the relationship to pre-tax income
declined slightly due in part to additional tax-free income.
Similar changes occurred in 1993. Materially affecting the
significant increase in the provision for income taxes in 1992
was a decline in the relationship of tax-free income to pre-tax
income from 52.4% in 1991 to 36.1% in 1992. In 1992, the
Corporation elected the early adoption of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes,"
which requires recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets
for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been
included in the financial statements of tax returns. The
cumulative effect of this change did not have a material impact
on reported income for 1992, 1993, or 1994.
These factors contributed to increases in net income for 1994 and
1993 of $246,000 or 6.3% and $425,000 or 12.2%, respectively.
Balance Sheet Data:
Earning assets represented 92.4% of total assets at year-end 1994
compared to 93.5% at year-end 1993. Changes in the composition of
earning assets reflect management's attempt to respond to
fluctuating loan demand and corresponding policies relating to
liquidity and asset/liability management.
The book value of investment securities exceeded market value by
$3,056,000 at December 31, 1994. The corporation owned no
securities below investment grade at year-end 1994. In response
to the various discussions among the authoritative accounting
bodies on classification of investment securities and the
appropriate definitions of Held for Investment, Available for
Sale and Trading Accounts, management has studied the investment
portfolio during the quarter ended December 31, 1992. As a
result, management revised the Corporation's investment policy
and classified certain investments as available for sale. If
management has the intent and the Corporation has the ability at
the time of purchase to hold securities until maturity or on a
long-term basis, securities are classified as investments and
carried at amortized historical cost. Securities to be held for
indefinite periods of time and not intended to be held to
maturity or on a long-term basis are classified as available for
sale and carried at the lower of cost or market value. Securities
held for indefinite periods of time include securities that
management intends to use as part of its asset/liability
management strategy and that may be sold in response to changes
in interest rates, resultant prepayment risk and other factors
related to interest rate and resultant prepayment risk changes.
At December 31, 1994, management classified investment
securities with book and market values of $102,305,000 and
$99,249,000 respectively, as available for sale. Gross unrealized
gains and losses relating to investment securities were $822,000
and $3,878,000, respectively, at year-end, 1994. No securities
were considered held for sale or for trading purposes at December
31, 1994 and December 31, 1993. Effective January 1, 1994, the
Corporation adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments
in Debt and Equity Securities", which requires the Corporation to
reflect securities available and held for sale at fair value on
the balance sheet. Upon adoption, the Corporation classified all
investments held at January 1, 1994, as available for sale and
recorded the increase to fair value as a separate component of
equity. The increase recorded to stockholders' equity at January
1, 1994 was $2,246,000, net of applicable income taxes. The net
decrease charged to equity at December 31, 1994 was $2,017,000.
These fluctuations are deemed to be temporary in nature and
result from changes in interest rates.Management believes that
this action is necessary to provide for proper administration of
the investment portfolio and can be accommodated by the
capitalization of the Corporation.
Net loans increased 13.9% from December 31, 1993 to December 31,
1994. Commercial, real estate, and personal and other loans
increased 15.7%, 10.3%, and 10.7%, respectively, during the
period.
The following table sets forth information regarding nonaccrual
loans, other real estate owned, and loans which are 90 days or
more delinquent but accruing interest at the dates indicated.

Management has instituted procedures for performing periodic
reviews of its loans to identify risks in the loan portfolio. As
a result of these periodic reviews, problem loans and potential
problem loans are identified and the likelihood of collectibility
is assessed. Based upon the results of these reviews, which also
consider other pertinent data, management determines an
appropriate allowance for loan losses. Other relevant factors
include past loss experience, current economic conditions, and
the growth and composition of the loan portfolio. The allowances
for loan losses is maintained at a level believed by management
to be adequate to absorb potential losses in the respective
portfolios. The allowance for loan losses to loans net of
unearned income approximated 1.14%,1.15%, 1.05%, .97%, and .89%,
at year-end, 1994, 1993, 1992, 1991, and 1990, respectively.
At December 31, 1994, management is not aware of any loans or
lending relationships that are expected to deteriorate in the
next year. In addition, the Corporation is not aware of any
significant environmental liability related to real estate owned
or in-foreclosure procedures.
The increase of $738,000 or 12.6% in premises and equipment was
materially impacted by the previously noted new banking locations
and renovations. Goodwill is being amortized over fifteen years.
The decrease in loans held for sale reflects the demand
experienced for this product in 1994. Affecting the increase of
$3,517,000 in accrued interest receivable and other assets were
increases in accrued interest receivable of $328,000 and deferred
taxes related to the previously noted SFAS No. 115 adjustment of
$1,039,000. The net deferred tax asset at December 31, 1994 is
expected to be realized through available carrybacks and expected
future taxable income. Also affecting accrued interest receivable
and other assets during 1994 was the purchase of life insurance
policies on the lives of six executive officers. The cash
surrender value of these policies approximated $1,756,000 at
December 31, 1994.
Total deposits increased $12,820,000 or 5.3% in 1994. Total
deposits other than time deposits of $100,000 or more increased
5.5%. It is not management's general policy to bid aggressively
for funds. To complement deposit growth, management chose to
borrow $11,025,000 in short-term Fed Funds at December 31, 1994.
Liquidity:
The primary functions of asset/liability management are the
assurance of adequate liquidity and maintenance of an appropriate
balance between interest-sensitive earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities. Liquidity management refers to the
ability to meet the cash flow requirements of depositors and
borrowers.
A continuous review of net liquid assets is conducted to assure
appropriate cash flow to meet needs and obligations in a timely
manner.
The Corporation's primary funding requirement is loan demand. The
loan demand is primarily funded through deposit growth.
Generally, any deposit growth not used in funding loan demand is
invested in short-term, interest-bearing deposits or longer term
investments. These short-term investments and shorter term
investment portfolio securities are a source of liquidity to fund
loan demand.
For the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, financing
activities provided cash of $20,012,000, $8,894,000, and
$21,809,000, respectively. Deposits accounted for the largest
portion of this funding source amounting to $12,820,000,
$7,695,000 and $17,440,000 for the years ended December 31, 1994,
1993 and 1992, respectively.
Net cash used in investing activities totalled $20,254,000,
$11,336,000, and $25,529,000 for the years ended December 31,
1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. The primary uses of funds in
1994 were purchases of investment securities of $18,939,000 and
increases in loans of $29,172,000. The primary uses of funds in
1993 were also purchases of investment securities of $23,866,000
and increases in loans of $34,004,000. Similar uses of funds
occurred in 1992. In each of the years ended December 31, 1994,
1993 and 1992, investment securities purchased exceeded the
proceeds from sales and maturities of securities, resulting in a
net increase in investment securities.
Forward Outlook:
Management anticipates increased loan demand in 1995 and will
continue to carefully evaluate the demand based on the credit-
worthiness of the borrower and the relative strength of the
economy in the Corporation's market.
Effects on Inflation:
All business enterprises are affected by the constantly changing
economic environment. Changes in the economy, however, affect the
banking industry differently than other industries. A bank's
assets and liabilities are primarily monetary in nature and
values are established without regard to future price changes.
Also, banks, unlike industrial corporations are not required to
provide for large capital expenditures in the form of premises,
equipment and inventory. Interest rate changes and the actions of
the Federal Reserve Board have a greater impact on a bank's
operations than do the effects of inflation. Although occasional
deviations may occur, it is management's policy to generally
maintain rate-sensitive assets at a level approximating
rate-sensitive liabilities. Based on a one-year parameter, this
relationship approximated 87% at December 31, 1994.
Accordingly, management anticipates that any additional decrease
in interest rates will positively impact earnings of the
Corporation. Conversely, management may not be able to increase
rates on certain earning assets as rapidly as those of
interest-bearing liabilities if a significant increase in
interest rates would occur. This may result in a decline in the
net interest margin of the Corporation.
Capital Strength:
The current economic and regulatory environment has placed an
increased emphasis on capital strength. Risk-based capital
guidelines recognize the relative degree of credit risk
associated with various assets by setting lower capital
requirements for some assets which clearly have less credit risk
than others. Capital guidelines require banks to hold 4% Tier 1
and 8% Total Risk-based capital. Following is a summary of
significant capital ratios at the dates indicated.
Regulatory December 31,
Minimum 1994 1993
(dollars in thousands)
Core (Tier 1) Capital --- $30,740 $27,632
Leverage ratio (A) 4.0% 10.1% 9.7%
Risk-based Capital Ratios:
Tier 1 capital ratio (B) 4.0% 15.4% 15.2%
Total risk-based capital
ratio (C) 8.0% 17.2% 16.9%
(A) Core capital divided by total assets less
intangible assets.
(B) Core capital divided by year-end risk-adjusted
assets, as defined by risk-based capital
guidelines.
(C) Total capital divided by risk-adjusted assets,
as defined by risk-based guidelines.
As shown by the table, the Bank's capital ratios exceeded
regulatory minimums in 1994 and 1993. The core capital ratio
increased from 15.2% to 15.4%, and the total capital ratio
increased from 17.2% to 16.1%, well above the regulatory minimums
of 4.0% for core and 8.0% for total capital. These changes were
impacted by the Corporation's retention of earnings during the
year.
