MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF
RESULTS IN OPERATIONS
Three Months Ended March 31, 1998
The net operating income of $22,000 for the first three months of 1998
is $1,231,000 below the same period for the prior year. Net income after
taxes for 1998 is projected to be approximately $900,000 or approximately
7.52% or more than 1997.
This decrease in net income through the first three months of 1998
is primarily due to the increase in the loan loss provision expense to
$1,200,000 as compared to $345,000 for the first quarter of 1998.
Additionally, a reserve for other marine assets of $437,000 was expensed
in the first quarter of 1998 as compared to no such expense in the first
quarter of 1997.
The increase in the loan loss provision expense was necessitated by
the substantial amount of marine installment loans required to be charged
off in the first quarter of 1998 which required the company to increase
its allowance for loan losses to comply with regulatory requirements.
There has been the following significant changes in charge offs,
recoveries, non-accruing or non-performing loans in the first
quarter of 1998.
An increase from the fourth quarter of 1997 to the first quarter of
1998 of approximately $391,000 in loans secured by real estate past due
90 or more days and still accruing, and an increase of $1,171,000 in
loans secured by real estate in non-accrual. An increase of $2,821,000
in commercial and industrial loans past due 30 through 89 days and still
accruing, and an increase of $2,997,000 in commercial and industrial
loans in non-accrual. A portion of these loans are secured by real
estate and other collateral.
Total charge offs for the first three months of 1998 totaled $1,323,000
while total recoveries during the same period were $942,000. These charge-
offs included a total of $1,109,000 in charge offs of loans to individuals
for household, family and other personal expenditures which includes
installment marine retail loans.
The Company has delinquent retail installment marine loans as follows:
$3,036,000 30-59 days delinquent, $444,000 60-89 days delinquent,
$415,000 90 days to 119 days delinquent. There are approximately
$26,900,000 of retail installment marine loans that are current
and performing.
