(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
FNB Rochester Corp. (the Company) operates as a bank
holding company. Its only subsidiary is First National Bank of
Rochester (the Bank). The consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, the Bank. All
material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
the consolidation.
The financial information is prepared in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles and such principles are applied on a
basis consistent with those reflected in the December 31, 1997 Form
10-K Report of the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. The financial information included herein has been prepared
by management without audit by independent certified public
accountants. The information furnished includes all adjustments and
accruals, solely of a normal recurring nature, that are in the opinion
of management necessary for a fair presentation of results for the
interim period ended June 30, 1998. Amounts in prior periods' financial
statements are reclassified whenever necessary to conform with current
presentation.
(2) Allowance for Loan Losses
Changes in the allowance for loan losses for the six months ended June
30, 1998 and 1997 are as follows:
1998 1997
---- ----
Balance at beginning of period $5,580 $5,696
Provisions for loan losses 150 -
Loans charged off (354) (328)
Recoveries on loans previously charged-off 162 133
--- ---
Balance at end of period $5,538 $5,501
===== =====
The principal balance of loans not accruing interest totaled $1,267,000
and $2,244,000 at June 30, 1998 and 1997 respectively and $2,100,000 at
December 31, 1997.
At June 30, 1998 and 1997, the recorded investment in loans that are
considered to be impaired totaled $1,069,000 and $2,665,000,
respectively. The average recorded investments in impaired loans during
the three months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 was approximately
$1,209,000 and $2,502,000, respectively. For the six months ended June
30, 1998 and 1997, the Company recognized $37,000 and $112,000,
respectively, in interest income on the impaired loans during the
period in which they were considered impaired.

(4) Stock Option Plans
The Company has stock option plans under which options to
acquire 525,000 shares of its common stock were available to grant to
key employees and options to acquire 25,000 shares of its common stock
were available to grant to directors. At June 30, 1998, options to
purchase 521,500 shares were held by grantees under the
plans. The range of exercise prices of the options is $5.63 to $21.50
per share with an average exercise price of $13.07 per share. At June
30, 1998, options to acquire 303,100 shares were exercisable. Of the
remaining, options to acquire 27,700 shares become exercisable at
various times through May 2000 and 190,450 become exercisable when the
market price of the Company's common stock reaches certain levels,
ranging from $21.50 to $33.50, and remains there for a 30 day period.
Since inception of the plans, options to acquire 14,425 shares have
been exercised.
(5) Dividends
The Company declared a quarterly $.08 per share dividend on
common stock on June 23 , 1998, payable July 30, 1998 to shareholders
of record July 15, 1998.
(6) New Accounting Pronouncements
Effective January 1, 1998 the Company adopted the remaining provisions
of SFAS No. 125, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial
Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities, which relate to the
accounting for securities lending, repurchase agreements, and other
secured financing activities. These provisions, which were delayed for
implementation by SFAS No. 127, are not expected to have a material
impact on the Company. In addition, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board is considering certain amendments and interpretations of SFAS No
125 which, if enacted in the future, could affect the accounting for
transactions within their scope.
On January 1, 1998, the Company adopted the provisions of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (FASB) No. 130, entitled "Reporting
Comprehensive Income." This statement establishes standards for
reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components.
Comprehensive income includes the reported net income of a company
adjusted for items that are currently accounted for as direct entries
to equity, such as the mark to market adjustment on securities
available for sale, foreign currency items and minimum pension
liability adjustments. At the Company, comprehensive income represents
net income plus other comprehensive income, which consists of the net
change in unrealized gains or losses on securities available for sale
for the period. Accumulated other comprehensive income represents the
net unrealized gains or losses on securities available for sale as of
the balance sheet dates.
Comprehensive income for the six-month period ended June 30, 1998 is
shown in the consolidated statement of changes in equity. Comprehensive
income for the six-month period ended June 30, 1997 was $2,026,000.
FASB Statement No. 131 entitled "Disclosures about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information" was issued in June 1997. This
Statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
1997. This Statement establishes standards for the way that public
business enterprises report information about operating segments in
annual financial statements and requires that those enterprises report
selected information about operating segments in interim financial
reports issued to shareholders. It also establishes standards for
related disclosures about products, services, geographic areas, and
major customers. This Statement may increase the Company's financial
disclosures but will have no impact on operating results. FASB issued
Statement No. 132, "Employers' Disclosures about Pensions and Other
Post Retirement Benefits" in February 1998. This statement revises
employer's disclosures about pension and other post retirement benefit
plans. It does not change the measurement or recognition of these
plans. The statement is effective for the Company in 1998 and will not
impact the Company's financial position or results of operations.
FASB Statement No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities" was issued in June 1998. This statement establishes
accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and for
hedging activities. It requires that all derivatives be recognized as
either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and that those
instruments be measured at fair value. The accounting for changes in
the fair value of a derivative (that is, gains and losses) depends on
the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. This
statement is effective for all fiscal quarters beginning January 1,
2000. Earlier adoption, however, is permitted. The Company anticipates,
based on current activities, that the adoption of SFAS No. 133 will not
have a material effect on the results of its operations.

FNB ROCHESTER CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
Statements included in this Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations and elsewhere in this
document that do not relate to present or historical conditions are
"forward looking statements" within the meaning of that term in Section
27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and of Section 21F of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Additional oral or
written forward looking statements may be made by the Company from time
to time, and such statements may be included in documents that are
filed with the Securities Exchange Commission. Such forward looking
statements involve risks and uncertainties which could cause results or
outcomes to differ materially from those expressed in such forward
looking statements. Among the important factors on which such
statements are based are assumptions concerning the business
environment in those counties in New York State where the Bank
operates, changes in interest rates, changes in the banking industry in
general and particularly in the competitive environment in which the
Bank operates, changes in inflation, and assumptions concerning the
year 2000.
The following is management's discussion and analysis of certain
significant factors which have affected the Company's financial
position and operating results during the periods included in the
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. Management's
discussion and analysis supplements management's discussion and
analysis for the year ended December 31, 1997 contained in the
Company's Form 10-K for the period then ended and includes certain
known trends, events and uncertainties that are reasonably expected to
have a material effect on the Company's Financial position or operating
results.
OVERVIEW
Total assets increased $43.2 million, or 8.3% in the first six months
of 1998. Loans increased $35.4 million, or 10.7% as compared to
December 31, 1997 and deposits increased $34.9 million, or 7.4%. The
loan growth has been primarily in commercial loans and residential
mortgages. Investments in securities available-for-sale increased by $9
million, or 7.4%, over the amount at year end. Deposits increased to
$504.8 million as compared to $469.8 million at December 31, 1997. $3.1
million of the increase was in certificates of deposit of $100,000 or
more. Other deposit increases from December 31, 1997 were $12.2 million
for Savings and Money Market, and $4.3 million for certificates less
than $100,000. Demand and interest checking deposits increased $12.7
million and $2.7 million, respectively. The growth in demand deposits
has been primarily in the three months ended June 30, 1998 and the
growth has been a combination of new relationships and increases in
existing relationships. The number of new demand accounts increased by
1,364, or 11.9% from December 31, 1997 to June 30, 1998. Securities
sold under agreement to repurchase and short-term borrowings increased
$6.7 million or 46.9%.
For the six-month period ended June 30, 1998, net income increased
$355,000, or 18%, as compared to the same period in 1997 and diluted
income per share increased $.08, from $.53 to $.61. The increase is
primarily due to increased net interest income. Net interest income
increased $1,082,000, or 10.9% as compared to the same period in 1997.
Net income for the three-month period ended June 30, 1998 increased
$125,000, or 11.6%, as compared to the same period in 1997. Diluted
income per share increased to $.31, up $.02 in comparison to $.29 for
the three months ended June 30, 1997. As with the six month period, the
increase is primarily due to increased net interest income. Net
interest income increased $486,000, or 9.5% as compared to the same
period in 1997.
NET INTEREST INCOME
Commercial lending and residential mortgage lending continue to provide
much of the Company's loan growth. The increase in net interest income
in the six-month period ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the same
period in 1997 is primarily the result of the increased lending
activity and increased securities available-for-sale, with offsetting
interest expense from increased certificate of deposit and securities
sold under agreement to repurchase volumes. After remaining fairly
stable in 1997 the net interest margin has declined from 4.50% for the
quarter ended December 1997 to 4.33% for the quarter ended March 1998
and to 4.26% for the June 1998 quarter. As the Company continues to
meet its growth objectives and increases its market share much of the
deposit growth continues to be in certificates of deposit. The decline
in margin is primarily caused by the increases in the relative amount
of certificates of deposit and of lower yielding assets such as
residential mortgage loans and securities available-for-sale. This
along with increasing price competition on loans and further interest
rate declines may mean further decreases in net interest margin.
Increased loan volume resulted in interest and fees on loans increasing
$1,382,000, or a 10.1% increase for the six-month period and $737,000,
or 10.6%, for the three-month period ended June 30, 1998, as compared
to the same periods in 1997. For the six-month period interest and fee
income on loans was increased $1,632,000 by additional volumes and was
reduced $250,000 by lower rates.
Average commercial loans increased $20.9 million, or 11%, from the
period ended June 30, 1997 to the period ended June 30, 1998. The
increased volume contributed $960,000 to income, which was partially
offset by rate declines that reduced income by $173,000. Average
mortgage loans increased $13.4 million, or 17.7%. The increase in the
mortgage portfolio was primarily made up of fixed rate mortgages with
maturities of 15 years or less. The increase in mortgage interest
income of $499,000 was the result of the increased volume. Average home
equity lines of credit outstanding increased $4 million with an
increase in income of $120,000. Other consumer loans showed a small
decline. Average securities increased $34 million and income from those
investments increased $949,000, or 23.8%. Because of the additional
deposits and securities sold under agreement to repurchase generated by
our banking offices, the rate of available funds growth has exceeded
loan growth, and management has purchased additional securities
available-for-sale in order to maximize earnings. The securities sold
under agreement to repurchase are used in conjunction with deposit
sweep accounts.
Interest expense increased $1,334,000, or 16.8%, for the six-month
period ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the period ended June 30,
1997, and $576,000, or 13.8% for the comparative three-month period.
The net average balance total of savings, interest checking, and money
market categories have shown an increase of $17.2 million, or 12%, as
compared to the first six months of 1997, and the interest expense
associated with those deposits increased $245,000, or 15.8%. Average
balances for certificates of deposit increased $26.5 million for the
six-month period as compared to the first six months of 1997, and the
Bank's deposit growth in certificates of deposit resulted in $737,000
additional interest expense due to increased balances and $9,000
because of increased rates.
PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES
The Bank provides for loan losses by a charge to current operations.
The provision is based upon discretionary adjustments which, in the
opinion of management, are necessary to bring the allowance to an
appropriate level considering the character of the loan portfolio,
current economic conditions, analyses of specific loans, and historical
loss experience. A provision for $150,000 was made for the period ended
June 30, 1998 and no provision was made in the period ended June 30,
1997.
The Bank had net charge-offs of $192,000 for the six-month period ended
June 30, 1998 as compared to net charge-offs of $195,000 for the same
period in 1997. Net charge-offs (annualized) as a percent of average
loans were .11% and .13% for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and
1997. The ratios of the allowance for possible loan losses as a percent
of period end loans for the comparable periods were 1.51% and 1.71%,
respectively. Non performing assets decreased $202,000, or 7.6% to
$2,440,000 at June 30, 1998 from $2,642,000 at June 30, 1997.
Management undertakes a quarterly analysis to assess the adequacy of
the allowance for possible loan losses taking into account
non-performing and delinquent loans, internally criticized loans,
historical trends, economic factors, and overall credit administration.
Based on this analysis, the allowance is considered adequate at June
30, 1998 to absorb anticipated losses. Management believes that the
inherent risk in the current portfolio is being adequately provided
for, and because of credit standards that the Bank has implemented, new
loans are expected to be of high quality.
Internally criticized loans increased $7.6 million from $15.2 million
at December 31, 1997 to $22.8 million at March 31, 1998 and declined
$.6 million to $22.3 at June 30, 1998. The increase over the December
1997 total was primarily caused by two lending relationships. Both
relationships appear to be adequately collateralized and are not
considered impaired.
NON-INTEREST INCOME AND NON-INTEREST EXPENSE
Non-interest income of $1,953,000 for the first six months of 1998
represents an increase of $312,000, or 19%, from $1,641,000 for the
comparable period in 1997. Most non-interest income categories showed
increases in the six-month period. The largest increase was $114,000,
or 13.9% as a result of increases in service charges on deposit
accounts. The three-month period reflected similar results.
Non-interest expense was $9,558,000 for the first six months of 1998 as
compared to $8,640,000 for the comparable period in 1997, an increase
of $918,000, or 10.6%. The largest components of non-interest expense
for the six-month periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 were salaries,
employee benefits and occupancy. Salaries and employee benefits
increased $484,000, or 10.3% and occupancy expense showed little
change.
Salaries and employee benefits increased primarily because of annual
increases, a new office which opened in the City of Rochester in early
April and additional personnel who are being hired and trained for two
new suburban offices that are expected to be opened in the third
quarter of 1998. Both Salaries, employee benefits and occupancy
expenses are expected to increase in 1998 as the Bank opens the new
banking offices and replaces its core banking system. While operating
expenses have continued to increase, the Company's operating expense as
a percent of average assets is declining. The ratio has declined during
the last four years from 5.18% in 1994 to 3.60% in 1997 and to 3.54%
for six-month period ended June 30, 1998.
PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES
The provision for income tax was $910,000 for the period ended June 30,
1998 as compared to $939,000 at June 30, 1997. The Company's effective
tax rates for the periods were 28% and 32% for 1998 and 1997
respectively. During each of the periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1997
the Company reduced its effective tax rate by recognizing deductible
temporary differences for which a valuation allowance had previously
been established. Some New York State tax benefit has also been
recognized in 1998 due to tax planning strategies.
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax
consequences attributable to differences between the financial
statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their
respective tax basis and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax
rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those
temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The
effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates
is recognized in income for the period that includes the enactment
date.
The realization of deductible temporary differences depends on the
Company having sufficient taxable income within the carry back period
permitted by the tax law to allow for utilization of deductible
amounts. A valuation allowance has been established for the portion of
the Company's net deductible temporary differences which are not
expected to be realized.
CAPITAL ADEQUACY
Total shareholders' equity was $35,949,000 at June 30, 1998, which
represents an increase of $1,929,000, or 5.7% from $34,020,000 at
December 31, 1997. Shareholders' equity increased as a result of
$2,332,000 in retained earnings and $312,000 in employee common stock
purchases, offset by dividends of $577,000 and a decrease of $138,000
in the unrealized net holding gain on securities available-for-sale,
net of taxes.
At June 30, 1998, the Company and its banking subsidiary exceeded the
minimum guidelines for Tier 1 and Total Risk-Based Capital of 4% and
8%, respectively. The Company's ratios were 9.86% and 11.12%
respectively, at June 30, 1998. Banking organizations must also
maintain a minimum Tier 1 Leverage Ratio of 3% of assets, while banking
organizations that are not top-rated according to regulators' "Camels"
ratings, must meet leverage ratios of at least 100 basis points above
the 3% standard. The Company's Tier 1 Leverage Ratio at June 30, 1998
was 6.36%. At 5% the Company would be considered to be well
capitalized.
LIQUIDITY
Liquidity measures the ability to meet maturing obligations and
existing commitments, to withstand fluctuations in deposit levels, to
fund operations, and to provide for customers' credit needs. Management
carefully monitors its liquidity position and seeks to maintain
adequate liquidity to meet its needs. The fundamental source of
liquidity will continue to be deposits. Available sources of asset
liquidity include short-term investments, loan repayments, and
securities held in the available-for-sale portfolio. Additionally, the
Bank has the ability to pledge securities to secure short-term
borrowing. The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank which
provides an additional source of funding.
The vast majority of the assets of the Company are held by the Bank.
Dividends and cash advances to the Company from the Bank are subject to
standard bank regulatory constraints. An analysis of projected expenses
and cash flows indicates that the Company has sufficient cash to meet
its anticipated cash obligations through 1998.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
On a quarterly basis, sensitivity to changes in interest rates is also
measured using a simulation model. The model estimates changes in net
interest income and net income under a variety of possible interest
rate scenarios. By performing these simulations and comparing them to
established policy limits, management has an opportunity to plan for
changes in the asset/liability mix, or to take other steps that may be
necessary to lessen interest rate risk. Based on management's
assumptions built into the simulation model and the current mix of the
Company's assets and liabilities, management's assessment is that there
will not be a material adverse effect on its operating results or
liquidity in the event of reasonably foreseeable changes in interest
rates through 1999. These simulations are based on numerous assumptions
regarding the timing and extent of repricing characteristics. Actual
results may differ significantly.
YEAR 2000
The Company is aware that many existing systems and services were
designed and developed without considering the impact of the upcoming
change in the century. If not corrected, many computer applications
could fail or create erroneous results by or at the Year 2000. The Year
2000 issue affects virtually all companies and organizations.
The Company has been aware of the complexity and magnitude of the Year
2000 (Y2K) issue and since October 1996 has been developing its
strategy to address the data processing and business impacts that are
expected to be encountered. As part of the assessment phase of our five
part process, First National has prioritized its list of applications
and systems to be addressed in the Y2K project. To date, First National
believes that the majority of all systems and services that may be
affected by the Y2K date change have been identified.
First National does not write programs or create its own software,
therefore, it must rely on vendors and software suppliers to provide
appropriate enhancements in a timely manner. As First National
continues to monitor the progress of vendors, it has also begun the
process of creating contingency plans for all applications that do not
meet First National's deadline for compliance.
The validation phase is the most labor intensive and critical phase and
requires a written test plan for each system that will be in use at the
turn of the century. First National has opted not to rely on vendor or
third party certification as acceptable validation. As vendors provide
upgraded software or enhancements, the Bank is conducting tests in
house to determine if the software or enhancements meet First
National's requirements for Y2K readiness. This validation phase is
targeted for completion by December 31, 1998.
Prior to January 1, 2000, First National expects to have tested each
mission critical application. In addition, First National will have
contingency plans in place for each of these applications. The
contingency plans will address key dates such as 12/31/1999, 1/01/2000
and 2/29/2000. Throughout the year 2000, First National will be
conducting a quality review to insure that its systems are functioning
properly.
Management continues to quantify the expenses of resolving Year 2000
problems, including problems relating to its own systems and those
relating to third party customers and vendors, or the materiality of
the effect of such expenses on its results of operations, capital
resources or liquidity. To date management has identified expenses for
years 1998, 1999 and 2000 of approximately $158,000, $387,000 and
$89,000, respectively.
The Bank has also held a Business Advisory Services seminar on the Year
2000 that was attended primarily by corporate customers. Year 2000
Awareness Kits and Questionnaires have been distributed to major
commercial customers and the Bank has made a Year 2000 Project Manager
available for further technical assistance. The Bank has recently begun
evaluating Year 2000 readiness of its commercial loan applicants as
part of the loan underwriting process and is calling upon major
existing borrowers to assess their readiness and identify potential
problems and the related impact on the Bank.
