MAHASKA INVESTMENT COMPANY
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. Adjustments and Reclassifications
The accompanying consolidated financial statements (unaudited) include the
accounts and transactions of the Company and its four wholly-owned subsidiaries,
Mahaska State Bank, Central Valley Bank, Pella State Bank and On- Site Credit
Services, Inc. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements (unaudited) have been
prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally
included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and
regulations. Although management believes that the disclosures are adequate to
make the information presented not misleading, it is suggested that these
interim consolidated financial statements (unaudited) be read in conjunction
with the Company's most recent audited financial statements and notes thereto
contained in the 1997 annual report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management,
the accompanying consolidated financial statements (unaudited) contain all
adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present
fairly the financial position as of September 30, 1998, and the results of
operations for the three months and the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and
1997, and changes in cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and
1997. Results for the nine months may not be indicative of the results for the
entire year.
2. Statements of Cash Flows
In the statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash and due
from banks, interest-bearing deposits with banks, and federal funds sold.
3. Income Taxes
Federal income tax expense for the three months and the nine months
ended September 30, 1998 and 1997 was computed using the consolidated effective
federal tax rate. The Company also recognized income tax expense pertaining to
state franchise taxes payable individually by the subsidiary banks.
4. Earnings Per Common Share
Basic earnings per common share computations are based on the weighted average
number of shares of common stock actually outstanding during the period. The
weighted average number of shares for the three-month periods ended September
30, 1998 and 1997 was 3,654,768 and 3,620,953 (restated to reflect the
five-for-three stock split effected in the form of a stock dividend which
occurred in November 1997), respectively. For the nine-month periods ended
September 30, 1998 and 1997, the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding was 3,669,414 and 3,661,591, respectively. Diluted earnings per
share amounts are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number
of shares and all dilutive potential shares outstanding during the period. The
computation of diluted earnings per share used a weighted average number of
shares outstanding of 3,832,830 and 3,833,380 for the three months ended
September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively, and 3,864,608 and 3,822,856 for the
nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
5. Effect of New Financial Accounting Standards
SFAS 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" became effective for the Company on
January 1, 1998, and establishes the standards for the reporting and display of
comprehensive income in the financial statements. Comprehensive income
represents net earnings and certain amounts reported directly in shareholders'
equity, such as net unrealized gain or loss on available for sale securities.
The adoption of SFAS 130 did not have a material effect on the financial
position and results of operations, nor did the adoption require additional
resources.
Part I -- Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998
Net income for the Company was $977,000 for the quarter ended September 30,
1998, compared with $1,246,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1997.
Basic earnings per share for the third quarter of 1998 were $.27 versus basic
earnings of $.34 per share for the third quarter of 1997. Diluted earnings per
share for the third quarter of 1998 were $.26 versus diluted earnings per share
of $.33 for the third quarter of 1997. All historical per share amounts have
been restated to reflect the five-for-three stock split effected in the form of
a stock dividend which occurred in November 1997. Actual weighted average shares
outstanding were 3,654,768 and 3,620,953 for the third quarter of 1998 and 1997,
respectively. The Company's return on average assets for the quarter ended
September 30, 1998 was 1.39 percent compared with a return of 1.94 percent for
the quarter ended September 30, 1997. The Company had a return on average equity
of 10.15 percent for the three months ended September 30, 1998 versus 13.94
percent for the three months ended September 30, 1997.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net Interest Income
Net interest income may fluctuate as a result of changes in the volumes of
assets and liabilities as well as changes in interest rates. The Company's net
interest income for the quarter ended September 30, 1998 was $3,556,000 compared
with $3,720,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1997. The decrease of
$164,000 was mainly due to lower interest income and discount collected on loan
pool participations in the third quarter of 1998 compared with 1997. Interest
and fee income on loans increased $787,000 (25 percent) in the third quarter of
1998 due to higher loan volumes. Total interest income increased $126,000 (2
percent) in the third quarter of 1998 compared with 1997. Total interest expense
for the quarter increased $290,000 (12 percent) compared with the same period in
1997 due to the additional deposits and borrowed funds. The Company's net
interest margin (on a federal tax-equivalent basis) for the third quarter of
1998 was 5.54 percent compared with 6.37 percent in the third quarter of 1997.
Net interest margin is net return on interest-earning assets and is computed by
dividing annualized net interest income by the average of total interest-earning
assets for the period. Most of the reduction in the net interest margin in the
third quarter of 1998 is attributable to the decline in loan pool interest
income and discount recovery recorded in the third quarter of 1998 compared with
the income recognized in the 1997 period. The Company's overall yield on earning
assets was 9.58 percent for the third quarter of 1998 compared to 10.32 percent
for the third quarter of 1997. The rate on interest-bearing liabilities
increased in the third quarter of 1998 to 4.76 percent compared with 4.66
percent for the third quarter of 1997.
The increase in interest income and fees on loans in the third quarter of 1998
compared to the same period in 1997 was mainly the result of higher loan volumes
which produced greater revenues. The average yield on loans rose to 9.67 percent
for the third quarter of 1998, up from 9.37 percent for the three months ended
September 30, 1997 as the mix of the Company's loan portfolio shifted into
higher-yielding commercial loans. Average loans outstanding were $163,574,000
for the third quarter of 1998 compared with $135,375,000 for the third quarter
of 1997, an increase of $28,199,000 (21 percent). Each of the Company's
subsidiaries (except for Pella State Bank which did not open until December
1997) experienced an increase in average loan volume in the third quarter of
1998 compared with 1997. Average real estate loan volumes increased $12,187,000
(21 percent), commercial loans averaged $9,525,000 (28 percent) higher, and
agricultural loans increased $4,787,000 (18 percent) in average volume for the
third quarter of 1998 compared with the third quarter of 1997.
Interest income and discount collected on the loan pools was $1,527,000 for the
third quarter of 1998 compared with $2,128,000 earned in the third quarter of
1997. The yield on loan pool investments was 12.51 percent for the third quarter
of 1998 compared with 17.38 percent for the quarter ended September 30, 1997.
The average loan pool participation investment balance was $48,445,000 during
the third quarter of 1998 compared with an average balance of $48,589,000 in the
third quarter of 1997. These loan pool investments are pools of performing,
nonperforming and distressed loans that the Company has purchased at a discount
from the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the underlying loans. Income
is derived from this investment in the form of interest collected and the
repayment of the principal in excess of the purchase cost which is herein
referred to as "discount" recovery. Interest income and discount recovery on the
loan pools is recognized on a "cash" basis by the Company. Collection expenses
incurred by the servicer to collect these loans are netted directly against the
income received. The reduction in loan pool income recognized in 1998 compared
with 1997 followed a decline in the amount of cash collections in the third
quarter of 1998. Since the Company commenced purchases of loan pools in 1988,
income recognition on the pools has been uneven.
The increase in interest expense for the third quarter of 1998 compared with
1997 was mainly attributable to growth in deposits and an increase in borrowed
funds. Interest expense on deposits increased $147,000 (7 percent) in the third
quarter of 1998 as average interest-bearing deposits for the period were
$11,328,000 (6 percent) greater than in the same period in 1997. Federal Home
Loan Bank advances during the third quarter of 1998 averaged $4,263,000 greater
in the third quarter of 1998 compared with the third quarter of 1997 resulting
in an additional $71,000 in interest expense. Interest expense on the Company's
commercial bank line of credit borrowed funds increased $81,000 as the amount
borrowed averaged $4,853,000 higher in the third quarter of 1998 compared with
the third quarter of 1997. The Company utilized these borrowings to provide
operating funds to On-Site Credit Services, Inc., to repurchase stock to be
reissued as stock options are exercised, and to provide capital to the newly-
chartered Pella State Bank.
Provision for Loan Losses
The Company's provision for loan loss expense of $307,000 in the third quarter
of 1998 was $162,000 greater than in the third quarter of 1997. Management
determines an appropriate provision based on its evaluation of the adequacy of
the allowance for loan losses in relationship to a continuing review of problem
loans, the current economic conditions, actual loss experience and industry
trends. During the third quarter of 1998, management deemed it prudent to
increase the provision for loan losses due to growth in total loans, as a result
of difficulties in the agricultural economy, and due to higher loan charge-offs.
Other Income
Other income results from the charges and fees collected by the Company from its
customers for various services performed, data processing income received from
nonaffiliated banks, miscellaneous other income and gains (or losses) from the
sale of investment securities held in the available for sale category. Total
other income increased $47,000 (10 percent) in the third quarter of 1998
compared with 1997, mainly due to the receipt of a settlement of an employee
misappropriation of customer funds which occurred in 1995 and was expensed at
that time. Higher service charge income from overdraft fees at the bank
subsidiaries also contributed to the increase in other income in the current
quarter.
Other Expense
Total other noninterest expense for the quarter ended September 30, 1998
increased $124,000 (6 percent) compared to noninterest expense for the third
quarter of 1997. Other expense includes all the costs incurred to operate the
Company except for interest expense, the loan loss provision and income taxes.
Salaries and benefits expense for the third quarter of 1998 increased $171,000
(17 percent) over the third quarter of 1997, primarily as a result of the
additional employees at the newly-chartered Pella State Bank and also due to
increased staffing at other subsidiaries. Net occupancy expenses for the third
quarter of 1998 increased $43,000 (14 percent) in comparison to the third
quarter of 1997 with most of the increase due to the additional facilities of
Pella State Bank. Professional fees decreased $68,000 for the third quarter of
1998 over the same period in 1997. Other miscellaneous operating expense
decreased by $17,000 (4 percent) in the third quarter of 1998 compared with the
three months ended September 30, 1997. Goodwill amortization expense decreased
$5,000 (3 percent) in the third quarter of 1998 versus 1997 in accordance with
the effective yield method of amortization.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 1998, decreased
$134,000 compared to the amount for the three months ended September 30, 1997,
primarily due to the overall decrease in taxable income for the period. The
effective income tax rate in the third quarter of 1998 was 35.64 percent
compared with 35.14 percent in the third quarter of 1997. The Company's
effective income tax rate varies from the statutory rate principally due to
interest income from tax-exempt securities and loans. Changes in the effective
rate for one period in comparison to another are primarily due to changes in the
amount of tax-exempt income.
NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998
The Company's net income for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 was
$3,781,000, compared with $3,851,000 for the first nine months of 1997. Basic
earnings per share for the nine month period of 1998 were $1.03 versus basic
earnings of $1.05 per share for 1997. Diluted earnings per share for the nine
months ended September 30, 1998 were $.98 versus diluted earnings per share of
$1.01 in 1997. All historical per share amounts have been restated to reflect
the five-for-three stock split effected in the form of a stock dividend which
occurred in November 1997. Actual weighted average shares outstanding were
3,669,414 and 3,661,591 for the first nine months of 1998 and 1997,
respectively. The Company's return on average assets for the period ended
September 30, 1998 was 1.83 percent compared with a return of 2.04 percent for
the first nine months of 1997. The Company had a return on average equity of
13.32 percent for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 versus 14.67 percent
for the nine months ended September 30, 1997.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net Interest Income
The Company's net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 1998
increased $735,000 (7 percent) to $11,782,000 from $11,047,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 1997. This was mainly due to increased interest
income earned on higher loan volumes. The increase in total interest income was
offset, in part, by additional interest expense related to increased deposits
and borrowed funds. Total interest income increased $1,569,000 (9 percent) in
the first nine months of 1998 compared with the same period in 1997. The
Company's total interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 1998
increased $834,000 (12 percent) compared with the same period in 1997. The
Company's net interest margin (on a federal tax-equivalent basis) for the nine
months of 1998 was 6.25 percent compared with 6.44 percent in 1997. The
Company's overall yield on earning assets was 10.29 percent in 1998 compared to
10.38 percent in 1997. The rate on interest-bearing liabilities increased in
1998 to 4.75 percent compared with 4.63 percent for 1997.
Interest income and fees on loans increased $2,120,000 (24 percent) in the first
nine months of 1998 compared to the same period in 1997 due to higher loan
volumes. Average loans outstanding were $154,457,000 for the first nine months
of 1998 compared with $127,776,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997,
an increase of $26,681,000 (21 percent). The average yield on loans rose to 9.55
percent for the nine months of 1998, up from 9.33 percent for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997.
Interest income and discount collected on the loan pools was $6,182,000 in the
nine months of 1998 compared with $6,545,000 earned in the first nine months of
1997. The yield on loan pool investments was 16.98 percent in the 1998 period
compared with 17.80 percent for the nine months ended September 30, 1997. The
average loan pool participation investment balance for the first nine months of
1998 was $48,663,000 compared with $49,166,000 in the nine months of 1997.
The increase in interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 1998
compared with 1997 was mainly attributable to growth in deposits and an increase
in borrowed funds. Average interest-bearing deposits for the first nine months
of 1998 were $10,363,000 (6 percent) greater than in the same period in 1997
resulting in an increase in interest expense on deposits of $411,000. Interest
expense on Federal Home Loan Bank advances increased by $200,000 during the
first nine months of 1998 compared with 1997 as the average balance of these
advances rose $4,456,000 in comparison with the first nine months of 1997.
Borrowings on the Company's commercial bank line of credit which averaged
$4,060,000 higher in the first nine months of 1998 compared with 1997 produced
an increase of $243,000 in interest expense for the current period.
Provision for Loan Losses
The Company's provision for loan loss expense of $594,000 in the first nine
months of 1998 was $282,000 greater than in 1997. Management determines an
appropriate provision based on its evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance
for loan losses in relationship to a continuing review of problem loans, the
current economic conditions, actual loss experience and industry trends.
Management deemed it prudent to increase the provision for loan losses as a
result of the growth of the Company's overall loan portfolio, concerns with the
agricultural economy, and due to the increased loan charge-offs in 1998.
Other Income
Total other income increased $78,000 (6 percent) in the first nine months of
1998 compared with 1997, mainly due to higher service charge income from
overdraft fees at the bank subsidiaries and due to investment security gains.
The additional income was offset, in part, by reduced data processing income
from nonaffiliated banks and lower miscellaneous income.
Other Expense
Total other noninterest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 1998
increased $603,000 (10 percent) compared to noninterest expense for the first
nine months of 1997. Salaries and benefits expense in 1998 increased $552,000
(18 percent) over 1997, primarily as a result of the additional employees at the
newly-chartered Pella State Bank and also due to increased staffing at other
subsidiaries. Net occupancy expenses for the nine months of 1998 increased
$140,000 (16 percent) in comparison to 1997 with most of the increase due to the
additional facilities of Pella State Bank. Other miscellaneous operating expense
decreased by $71,000 (5 percent) in 1998 compared with the nine months ended
September 30, 1997. Goodwill amortization expense decreased $16,000 (3 percent)
in 1998 versus 1997 in accordance with the effective yield method of
amortization.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 1998, was unchanged
compared to the amount for the nine months ended September 30, 1997. The
effective income tax rate in the first nine months of 1998 was 35.98 percent
compared with 35.57 percent in the first nine months of 1997. The Company's
effective income tax rate varies from the statutory rate principally due to
interest income from tax-exempt securities and loans. Changes in the effective
rate for one period in comparison to another are primarily due to changes in the
amount of tax-exempt income.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
The Company's total assets as of September 30, 1998 were $293,949,000, an
increase of $19,076,000 from December 31, 1997. As of September 30, 1998, the
Company had federal funds sold of $1,955,000 compared with $6,815,000 as of
December 31, 1997. Most of the decrease in federal funds sold was utilized to
fund loan growth.
Investment Securities
Investment securities available for sale increased $3,651,000 (16 percent) from
December 31, 1997 to the September 30, 1998 total of $26,879,000 as a result of
the purchase of securities. Investment securities classified as held to maturity
totaled $16,698,000 as of September 30, 1998, a decline of $3,135,000 as
securities matured or were called during the nine-month period from December 31,
1997. These proceeds were reinvested into securities available for sale.
Loans
Overall loan volumes continued to increase, with total loans outstanding of
$166,250,000 as of September 30, 1998 reflecting growth of $21,918,000 (15
percent) from December 31, 1997. Most of the growth from December 31, 1997 to
September 30, 1998 was spread between real estate, commercial and agricultural
loans. Consumer loans outstanding as of the quarter-end declined approximately
$334,000 from the December 31, 1997 balance. As of September 30, 1998, the
Company's loan to deposit ratio (excluding loan pool investments) was 75.38
percent. This compares with a year-end 1997 loan to deposit ratio of 67.04
percent.
As of September 30, 1998, the Company had approximately $31,987,000 (19.24
percent) of its loan portfolio in agricultural loans. While this is an increase
of $5,488,000 in comparison with the December 31, 1997 agricultural loan total,
in most years the maximum level of operating loans occurs in the third and early
fourth quarters. Concerns with the agricultural economy have caused management
of the Company to require that subsidiary lending officers closely review all ag
lines and identify those specific credits that would be more at risk in the
event of continued deterioration in the agricultural economy. Contingency plans
are being developed for these "weaker" credits that would enable the lending
officers to work with these borrowers in an effort to prevent or minimize any
potential loss to the Company.
Loan Pool Participations
As of September 30, 1998, the Company had investments in loan pool
participations of $56,250,000, an increase of $1,925,000 (4 percent) from the
prior year-end balance of $54,326,000. The loan pool investment balance shown as
an asset on the Company's Balance Sheet represents the discounted purchase cost
of the loan pool participations. The average loan pool participation investment
of $48,663,000 for the first nine months of 1998 was 1 percent less than the
average balance of $49,166,000 for the first nine months of 1997.
The Company actively continues to evaluate and bid on loan pool packages. During
the third quarter of 1998, the Company invested $14,832,000 in loan pools which
were acquired from the FDIC and from two private sellers. The pools that were
purchased during the quarter were primarily performing credits that were
acquired at a higher cost basis. Although the higher cost basis of the acquired
pools may result in a decline in the future overall yield on the loan pool
investment, management felt that it was prudent to purchase a higher-quality
performing loan asset in view of the uncertainty of the current economic
environment and the lower risk associated with holding a performing credit.
Loan pool investments by the Company are participation interests in pools of
loans owned by the independent servicer. These loan pool investments are not
securitized in any manner. The servicer does not securitize these loan packages
or perform any collection functions for other outside parties that are involved
in securitization activities. The loans owned by the servicer are primarily
secured by real estate and do not include significant amounts of unsecured
consumer debt obligations. These assets were mainly acquired from other
financial institution originators and most were not categorized as subprime
credits at the time of origination.
Deposits
Total deposits grew $5,249,000 (2 percent) during the first nine months of 1998
with the most growth noted in higher rate savings and certificate of deposit
accounts. Demand deposit accounts and NOW account deposits as of September 30,
1998 decreased $4,281,000 from December 31, 1997, mostly due to seasonal
fluctuation.
Borrowed Funds/Notes Payable
The Company had Fed Funds purchased of $3,775,000 on September 30, 1998. On
December 31, 1997 there were no Fed Funds Purchased. Fixed-rate advances from
the Federal Home Loan Bank totaled $12,299,000 on September 30, 1998 compared
with $6,000,000 as of December 31, 1997. The Company has increased its
utilization of FHLB advances as a lower-cost, longer-term funding strategy in
comparison with customer deposits. Notes payable increased to $16,750,000 on
September 30, 1998 from $14,050,000 on December 31, 1997 with the additional
funds utilized to purchase loan pool investments, to repurchase outstanding
shares of Company stock to be reissued as stock options are exercised and to
fund the operating capital needed by the On-Site Credit Services subsidiary.
Nonperforming Loans
The Company's nonperforming loans totaled $1,691,000 (1.02 percent of total
loans) as of September 30, 1998, compared to $1,848,000 (1.28 percent of total
loans) as of December 31, 1997. All nonperforming loan totals and related ratios
exclude the loan pool investments. The following table presents the categories
of nonperforming loans as of September 30, 1998:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
Nonperforming Loans
(dollars in thousands)

<S> <C>
Nonaccrual $1,147
Loans 90 days past due 366
Renegotiated loans 166
Other real estate owned 12
$1,691
</TABLE>
From December 31, 1997 to September 30, 1998, nonaccrual loans increased
$220,000, loans ninety days past due decreased $155,000, restructured loans
decreased $222,000 and other real estate owned remained unchanged. The Company's
allowance for loan losses as of September 30, 1998 was $1,873,000, which was
1.13 percent of total loans as of that date. This compares with an allowance for
loan losses of $1,816,000 as of December 31, 1997, which was 1.26 percent of
total loans. As of September 30, 1998, the allowance for loan losses was 110.79
percent of nonperforming loans compared with 98.24 percent as of December 31,
1997. Management believes that as of September 30, 1998 the allowance for loan
losses is adequate. For the three months ended September 30, 1998, the Company
recognized a net loan charge-off of $170,000 compared with a net charge-off of
$25,000 during the quarter ended September 30, 1997. For the first nine months
of 1998, the Company experienced net charge-offs of loans totalling $536,000,
or .46 percent of average loans outstanding for the period. This compares with
net loan charge-offs of $63,000 during the first nine months of 1997.
Capital Resources
As of September 30, 1998, total shareholders' equity as a percentage of total
assets was 12.90 percent compared with 13.31 percent as of December 31, 1997.
Cash dividends paid to shareholders during the third quarter of 1998 were $.14
per share.
The Company held 176,157 shares of treasury stock at a cost of $2,877,000 as of
September 30, 1998. These shares were repurchased to satisfy options granted
under the Company's Stock Incentive Plans. During the third quarter of 1998 the
Company reissued 8,248 shares of treasury stock as options were exercised by
employees, officers and directors. On January 22, 1998, the Board of Directors
voted to continue the Company's stock repurchase plan that provides for the
repurchase of up to 200,000 shares through January 31, 1999. The Company
repurchased 58,500 shares of its stock during the third quarter of 1998 at a
cost of $1,228,000 (average cost of $20.99 per share).
Under risk-based capital rules, the Company's tier 1 capital ratio was 13.95
percent of risk-weighted assets as of September 30, 1998, and was 14.74 percent
of risk-weighted assets as of December 31, 1997, compared to a 4.00 percent
requirement. Risk- based capital guidelines require the classification of assets
and some off-balance sheet items in terms of credit-risk exposure and the
measuring of capital as a percentage of the risk-adjusted asset totals. Tier 1
capital is the Company's total common shareholders' equity reduced by goodwill
and including unrealized gains and losses on investment securities classified as
available for sale in accordance with FASB 115.
The Company continues to pursue acquisition and expansion opportunities that fit
the organization's strategic business and financial plans. There are currently
no pending acquisitions that would require the Company to secure capital from
public or private markets.
Liquidity
Liquidity management involves meeting the cash flow requirements of depositors
and borrowers. The Company conducts liquidity management on both a daily and
long-term basis; and it adjusts its investments in liquid assets based on
expected loan demand, projected loan maturities and payments, estimated cash
flows from the loan pool participations, expected deposit flows, yields
available on interest-bearing deposits, and the objectives of its
asset/liability management program. The Company had liquid assets (cash and cash
equivalents) of $13,982,000 as of September 30, 1998, compared with $19,195,000
as of December 31, 1997. Some of this decrease is attributable to the additional
funding of loans. Investment securities classified as available for sale could
be sold to meet liquidity needs, if necessary. Additionally, the bank
subsidiaries maintain lines of credit with correspondent banks and the Federal
Home Loan Bank that would allow them to borrow federal funds on a short-term
basis if necessary. The Company also maintains a line of credit with a
non-affiliated commercial bank that provides liquidity for the purchase of loan
pool participation investments and other corporate needs. Management believes
that the Company has sufficient liquidity as of September 30, 1998 to meet the
needs of borrowers and depositors.
Market Risk Management
Market risk is the risk of earnings volatility that results from adverse changes
in interest rates and market prices. The Company's market risk is primarily
comprised of interest rate risk arising from its core banking activities of
lending and deposit taking. Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in
market interest rates may adversely affect the Company's net interest income.
Management continually develops and applies strategies to mitigate this risk.
Management does not believe that the Company's primary market risk exposures and
how those exposures were managed in the first nine months of 1998 changed when
compared to 1997.
The Company uses a third-party computer software simulation modelling program to
measure its exposure to potential interest rate changes. For various assumed
hypothetical changes in market interest rates, numerous other assumptions are
made such as prepayment speeds on loans and securities backed by mortgages, the
slope of the Treasury yield curve, the rates and volumes of the Company's
deposits and the rates and the volumes of the Company's loans. This analysis
measures the estimated change in net interest income in the event of
hypothetical changes in interest rates. This analysis of the Company's interest
rate risk was presented in the Form 10-K filed by the Company for the year ended
December 31, 1997.
YEAR 2000 Compliance
A critical issue has emerged in the banking industry and for the economy overall
regarding how existing computer application software programs, operating systems
and hardware can accommodate that date value for the year 2000. This issue is an
area of major emphasis as management is actively working with its software and
hardware vendors to assure that the Company is compliant. Additionally, the
Company is working with material non-information system providers, including
but not limited to security, telephone, utilities, ATM cards, elevators, heating
and cooling systems, check clearing services, teller machines and proof
equipment to determine their year 2000 compliance. An assessment of the
readiness of vendors, significant customers and other third parties with which
the Company does business is also underway.
The Company could be faced with severe consequences if Year 2000 issues are not
identified and resolved in a timely manner. A worst-case scenerio would result
in the short-term inability to update customer financial records due to
unforeseen processing issues. This would result in customers being unable to
receive timely information regarding their account balances. In addition, a
worst-case scenerio for the Company is that major suppliers of electricity,
communication links and outside data processing services may fail in spite of
their best efforts to remediate their systems and in spite of our best efforts
to test their systems. The major risk as a result of these possibilities would
be a loss of customer confidence.
The Company has established Year 2000 Committees and Plans at its bank and
thrift subsidiaries, and formal project plans have been developed and adopted.
Testing and contingency plans have also been developed and adopted by the
Company's subsidiaries. Testing procedures are underway and are expected to be
completed prior to December 31, 1998. The Company purchased a new main- frame
computer system that is year 2000 compliant in 1997 at a cost of $430,000. This
computer system became fully operational in the first quarter of 1998 with the
equipment cost being depreciated over a five year period beginning in 1998.
The Company's contingency plans include two components which are business
remediation and business resumption. The business remediation plan was developed
to mitigate the risk associated with the failure to successfully complete system
renovation, validation or implementation of the Company's Year 2000 readiness.
This plan pertains to mission-critical systems developed in-house, by outside
software vendors, and by third- party service providers. The business resumption
plan is designed to be implemented in the event there are system failures at
critical dates.
The Company anticipates that it will incur internal staff costs and other
expenses related to the enhancements necessary to become Year 2000 compliant.
Based on the Company's current knowledge, the expense related to Year 2000
compliance is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial
position or results of operations. It is estimated that the costs incurred by
the Company for Year 2000 compliance will be approximately $20,000, exclusive of
costs associated with the new main-frame computer.
Effect of New Accounting Standards
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, will be effective for the Company
beginning January 1, 2000. Management is evaluating the impact the adoption of
SFAS No. 133 will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements and
expects to adopt SFAS 133 when required.

than 51% of the votes entitled to be cast at a meeting at which all shares
entitled to vote on the action were present and voted, and such written consents
are delivered to the corporation for inclusion in the minutes or filing with the
corporate records; provided, however, that in the event any provision of Chapter
490 of the 1993 Code of Iowa, as amended, requires that notice of proposed
action be given to shareholders not entitled to vote and the action is to be
taken by consent of the voting shareholders, the corporation shall give all
shareholders written notice of the proposed action at least ten days before the
action is taken, in the form and in the manner required by Chapter 490 of the
1993 Code of Iowa, as amended. Any such written consent shall bear the date of
signature of each shareholder who signs the consent and no written consent shall
be effective to take the corporate action referred to in the consent unless,
within 60 days of the earliest dated consent delivered in the manner required
above to the corporation, written consents signed by a sufficient number of
holders to take action are delivered to the corporation. Prompt notice of the
taking of corporate action without a meeting by less than unanimous written
consent shall be given to those shareholders who have not consented in writing.

State of Iowa shall be located in the City of Oskaloosa, Mahaska County, Iowa.
The corporation may have such other offices, either within or without the State
of Iowa, as the board of directors may designate or as the business of the
corporation may require from time to time.
Section 2. Registered Office. The registered office of the corporation
required by the Iowa Business Corporation Act to be maintained in the State of
Iowa may be, but need not be, identical with the principal office in the State
of Iowa, and the address of the registered office may be changed from time to
time by the board of directors.
ARTICLE II. SHAREHOLDERS.
Section 1. Annual Meeting. The annual meeting of the share holders shall be
held on any day in the month of April in each year, other than Sundays and legal
holidays, commencing at an hour between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. as may be
specified from year to year by the board of directors, for the purpose of
electing directors and transacting such other business as may properly come
before the meeting. If the election of directors shall not be held on the date
designated for any annual meeting of the shareholders, or any adjournment
thereof, the board of directors shall cause the election to be held at a special
meeting of the shareholders as soon thereafter as conveniently may be. If the
annual meeting is not held within any eighteen-month period, the District Court
of the county wherein the registered office of the corporation is located may,
upon the written application of any shareholder, order an annual meeting to be
held.
Section 2. Special Meetings. Special meetings of the shareholders, for any
purpose or purposes, unless otherwise prescribed by statute, may be called by
the president or by the board of directors, and shall be called by the president
at the request of the holders of not less than one-half of all the outstanding
shares of the corporation entitled to vote at the meeting.
Section 3. Place of Meetings. The board of directors may designate any
place, either within or without the State of Iowa, as the place of meeting for
any annual meeting or for any special meeting called by the board of directors.
Section 4. Notice of Meetings. Written or printed notice stating the place,
day and hour of the meeting and, in case of a special meeting, the purpose or
purposes for which the meeting is called, shall be delivered not less than ten
nor more than sixty days before the date of the meeting, either personally or by
mail, by or at the direction of the president, the secretary, or the officer or
persons calling the meeting, to each shareholder of record entitled to vote at
such meeting. If mailed, such notice shall be deemed to be delivered when
deposited in the United States mail, addressed to the shareholder at his address
as it appears on the stock transfer books of the corporation, with postage
thereon prepaid. Any shareholder may waive notice of any regular or special
meeting of shareholders at any time.
Section 5. Fixing of Record Date. For the purpose of determining
shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of shareholders or
any adjournment thereof, or shareholders entitled to receive payment of any
dividend, or in order to make a determination of shareholders for any other
proper purpose, the board of directors of the corporation may fix in advance a
date as the record date for any such determination of shareholders, such date in
any case to be not more than seventy days and, in case of a meeting of
shareholders, not less than ten days prior to the date on which the particular
action, requiring such determination of shareholders, is to be taken. If a
record date is not fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to
notice of or to vote at a meeting of shareholders, or shareholders entitled to
receive payment of a dividend, the date on which notice of the meeting is mailed
or the date on which the resolution of the board of directors declaring such
dividend is adopted, as the case may be, shall be the record date for such
determination of shareholders. When a determination of shareholders entitled to
vote at any meeting of shareholders has been made as provided in this section,
such determination shall apply to any adjournment thereof, if the meeting is
adjourned to a date within 120 days after the date fixed for the original
meeting.
Section 6. Voting Lists. The officer or agent having charge of the stock
transfer books for shares of the corporation shall make, beginning two business
days after notice of the meeting is given for which the list was prepared and
continuing through the meeting, a complete list of the shareholders entitled to
vote at such meeting, or any adjournment thereof, arranged in alphabetical
order, with the address of and the number of shares held by each, which list
shall be kept on file at the registered office of the corporation and shall be
subject to inspection by any shareholder at any time during usual business
hours. Such list shall also be produced and kept open at the time and place of
the meeting and shall be subject to the inspection of any shareholder during the
whole time of the meeting. The original stock transfer book shall be prima facie
evidence as to who are the shareholders entitled to examine such list or
transfer books or to vote at any meeting of shareholders.
Section 7. Quorum. A majority of the outstanding shares of the corporation
entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum
at a meeting of shareholders, and if a quorum is present, the affirmative vote
of the majority of the shares represented at the meeting and entitled to vote on
the subject matter shall be the act of the shareholders, unless the vote of a
greater number is required by law or the articles of incorporation. If less than
a majority of the outstanding shares are represented at a meeting, a majority of
the shares so represented may adjourn the meeting from time to time without
further notice. At such adjourned meeting at which a quorum shall be present or
represented, any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at
the meeting as originally notified. The shareholders present at a duly organized
meeting may continue to transact business until adjournment, notwithstanding the
withdrawal of enough shareholders to leave less than a quorum.
Section 8. Proxies. At all meetings of shareholders, a shareholder may vote
by proxy executed in writing by the shareholder or by his duly authorized
attorney in fact. Such proxy shall be filed with the secretary of the
corporation before or at the time of the meeting. No proxy shall be valid after
eleven months from the date of its execution, unless otherwise provided in the
proxy.
Section 9. Voting of Shares. Each outstanding share entitled to vote shall
be entitled to one vote upon each matter submitted to a vote at a meeting of
shareholders.
Section 10. Voting of Shares by Certain Holders. Shares standing in the
name of another corporation may be voted by such officer, agent or proxy as the
bylaws of such corporation may prescribe, or, in the absence of such provision,
as the board of directors of such corporation may determine.
Shares held by an administrator, executor, guardian or conservator may be
voted by him, either in person or by proxy, without a transfer of such shares
into his name. Shares standing in the name of a trustee may be voted by him,
either in person or by proxy, but no trustee shall be entitled to vote shares
held by him without a transfer of such shares into his name.
Shares standing in the name of a receiver may be voted by such receiver,
and shares held by or under the control of a receiver may be voted by such
receiver without the transfer thereof into his name if authority so to do be
contained in an appropriate order of the court by which such receiver was
appointed.
A custodian of securities under the Iowa Uniform Gift to Minors Act may
vote a security which is custodial property.
Section 11. Informal Action by Shareholders. Any action required to be
taken at a meeting of the shareholders, or any other action which may be taken
at a meeting of the shareholders, may be taken without a meeting if a consent in
writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by all of the
shareholders entitled to vote with respect to the subject matter thereof.
Section 12. Meetings of All Shareholders. If all of the shareholders shall
meet at any time and place, either within or without the State of Iowa, and
consent to the holding of a meeting at such time and place, such meeting shall
be valid without call or notice, and at such meeting any corporate action may be
taken.
Section 13. Method of Voting. Voting by shareholders on any question or in
any election may be viva voce unless the presiding officer shall order or any
shareholders shall demand that voting be by ballot.
ARTICLE III. BOARD OF DIRECTORS.
Section 1. General Powers. The business and affairs of the corporation
shall be managed by its board of directors. The board of directors may authorize
any officer or officers, agent or agents, to enter into any contract or execute
and deliver any instrument in the name of and on behalf of the corporation, and
such authority may be general or confined to specific instances.
Section 2. Number, Tenure and Qualifications. The number of directors of
the corporation shall be not less than 5 and not greater than 15, and, effective
as of the annual meeting of shareholders of the corporation in 1996, the Board
of Directors shall be divided into three classes, designated Class I, Class II,
and Class III. Such classes shall be as nearly equal in number as possible. The
term of directors of one class shall extend to each annual meeting of
shareholders and in all cases as to each director, until his successor shall be
elected and shall qualify, or until his earlier resignation, removal from
office, death or incapacity. Additional directorships resulting from an increase
in number of directors shall be apportioned among the classes as equally as
possible. The initial term of office of directors of Class I shall extend to the
annual meeting of shareholders in 1997, that of Class II shall extend to the
annual meeting in 1998, and that of Class III shall extend to the annual meeting
in 1999, and in all cases as to each director until his successor shall be
elected and shall qualify or until his earlier resignation, removal from office,
death or incapacity. At each annual meeting of shareholders, the number of
directors equal to the number of directors of the class whose term extends to
the time of such meeting shall be elected to hold office until the third
succeeding annual meeting of shareholders after their election. The Board of
Directors may, upon a majority vote of its members, increase or decrease the
number of directors within the limits set forth above. Directors need not be
residents of the State of Iowa or, except as required by the Board of Directors,
shareholders of the corporation.
Section 3. Place and Notice of Meetings. A regular meeting of the board of
directors shall be held without other notice than this bylaw immediately after,
and at the same place as, the annual meeting of the shareholders. The board of
directors may provide, by resolution, the time and place, either within or
without the State of Iowa, for the holding of additional regular meetings
without other notice than such resolution. Special meetings of the board of
directors may be called by or at the request of the president or any two
directors. The person or persons authorized to call special meetings of the
board of directors may fix any place, either within or without the State of
Iowa, as the place for holding any special meeting of the board of directors
called by him or them. Notice of any special meeting of the board of directors
shall be given at least two days previously thereto by notice delivered
personally or mailed to each director at his business address. If mailed, such
notice shall be deemed to be delivered when deposited in the United States mail
so addressed, with postage thereon prepaid. Any director may waive notice of any
meeting. The attendance of a director at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of
notice of such meeting unless the director at the beginning of the meeting, or
promptly upon the director's arrival, objects to holding the meeting or
transacting business at the meeting and does not thereafter vote for or assent
to action taken at the meeting. Members of the board of directors, or any
committees designated by the board, may participate in a meeting of such board
or committee by conference telephone or similar communications equipment by
means of which all persons participating in the meeting can simultaneously hear
each other during the meeting, and participation in a meeting pursuant to this
provision shall constitute presence in person at such meeting.
Section 4. Quorum. A majority of the total number of directors shall
constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at any meeting of the board
of directors, but if less than such majority is present at a meeting, a majority
of the directors present may adjourn the meeting from time to time without
further notice.
Section 5. Manner of Acting. The act of the majority of the directors
present at a meeting at which a quorum is present shall be the act of the board
of directors.
Section 6. Vacancies. Any vacancy occurring in the board of directors may
be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors
though less than a quorum of the board of directors. The term of a director
elected to fill a vacancy, including a vacancy caused by reason of an increase
in the number of directors, shall be filled by the affirmative vote of a
majority of the remaining directors, at any regular or special meeting of the
board of directors called for that purpose in which a quorum of the board of
directors is present, and the director or directors so elected shall serve until
the next meeting of the shareholders at which directors are elected.
Section 7. Compensation. By resolution of the board of directors, the
directors may be paid their expenses, if any, of attendance at each meeting of
the board of directors, and may be paid such compensation for their services as
shall be fixed by the board of directors from time to time. No payment received
by any director shall preclude him from serving the corporation in any other
capacity and receiving compensation therefor.
Section 8. Presumption of Assent. A director of the corporation who is
present at a meeting of the board of directors or a committee of the board of
directors at which action on any corporate matter is taken shall be presumed to
have assented to the action taken unless the director objects at the beginning
of the meeting or promptly upon the director's arrival to holding it or
transacting business at the meeting, the director's dissent or abstention from
the action taken is entered in the minutes of the meeting, or the director
delivers written notice of the director's dissent or abstention to the presiding
officer in the meeting before its adjournment or to the corporation immediately
after adjournment of the meeting. The right of dissent or abstention is not
available to a director who votes in favor of the action taken.
Section 9. Informal Action by Directors. Any action required to be taken at
a meeting of the directors, or any other action which may be taken at a meeting
of the directors, may be taken without a meeting if a consent in writing,
setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by all of the directors
entitled to vote with respect to the subject matter thereof.
