Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited, consolidated financial statements include all
adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair
presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. All adjustments
were of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for the nine-month
period ended June 30, 1994 are not necessarily indicative of the results which
may be expected for the entire fiscal year.
2. Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Eagle Financial
Corp. ("Eagle" or the "Company") and its wholly owned subsidiary, Eagle Federal
Savings Bank ("Eagle Federal" or the "Bank"), a federally-chartered savings
bank.
3. Acquisition
The Company acquired assets of $267 million and liabilities of The Bank of
Hartford, Inc. (the "Bank of Hartford") from the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation ("FDIC") in an assisted transaction on June 10, 1994. The
acquisition accounted for as a purchase transaction, increased the Company's
assets to approximately $1.1 billion.
4. Accounting Pronouncements
In February, 1992, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 109 "Accounting for
Income Taxes." This SFAS requires a change from the deferred method of
accounting for income taxes to the asset and liability method of accounting for
income taxes. 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 bases. 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. Under SFAS No. 109, the effect on deferred tax assets and
liabilities of a change in tax rate is recognized in income in the period that
includes the enactment date.
The Company adopted SFAS No. 109 as of October 1, 1993. The cumulative effect of
this change in accounting for income taxes of $1,273,000 as of October 1, 1993
is reported as a cumulative effect of an accounting change in the statement of
operations for the nine months ended June 30, 1994. Prior periods' financial
statements have not been restated to apply the provisions of SFAS No. 109.
At June 30, 1994, the Company has a net deferred tax asset of approximately $2.9
million. In order to fully realize the net deferred tax asset, the Company will
need to either generate tax losses to carryback to recover taxes previously paid
or generate future taxable income. Based upon the Company's historical and
current pre-tax earnings, management believes it is more likely than not that
the Company will realize the net deferred tax asset. However, there can be no
specific assurance that the Company will generate any specific level of
continuing earnings.
The Company had taxable income, pre-tax book income and taxes paid for the
periods presented as follows:

Pre-tax book income................ 11,789 10,066 7,392
Federal taxes paid................. 3,934 3,614 2,671
The primary differences between taxable income and pre-tax book income relates
to the provisions for loan losses and charge-offs. The Company would expect
these differences to continue in the future.

For the nine months ended June 30, 1994, income tax expense attributable to
income from continuing operations consists of:

Eagle Federal has not provided deferred income taxes for Eagle Federal's tax
return reserve for bad debts that arose in tax years beginning before December
31, 1987 because it is not expected that this difference will reverse in the
foreseeable future. The cumulative net amount of income tax temporary difference
related to the reserve for bad debts for which deferred taxes have not been
provided was approximately $8.9 million at June 30, 1994. If Eagle Federal does
not meet the income tax requirements necessary to permit it to claim a
percentage of taxable income loan loss deduction in the future, the Bank under
certain circumstances could incur a tax liability for the previously deducted
tax return loan loss in the year in which such requirements are not met. This
potential liability for which no deferred income taxes have been provided was
approximately $3.7 million as of June 30, 1994.
On October 1, 1993, the Company also adopted SFAS No. 106, "Accounting for
Post-retirement Benefits Other Than Pensions." This accumulated post-retirement
benefit obligation ("APBO") existing at time of adoption was approximately
$2,194,000 before income taxes of $891,000. The $1,303,000 reduction in income
net of taxes was recognized as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting
method in the statement of operations for the nine months ended June 30, 1994.
The Company provides health benefits for future retirees within certain limits
and for current retirees. The Company does not have any assets specifically
segregated for the payment of health benefits.
The following is a summary of the obligation to provide health benefits at
October 1, 1993:

Item 2. Management's Discussion And Analysis Of Financial Condition
And Results Of Operations
Overview
At June 30, 1994, Eagle had total assets of $1.1 billion, compared to
$792.5 million at September 30, 1993. The primary reason for the growth from
fiscal year end 1993 to June 30, 1994 is the recent Bank of Hartford, Inc.
transaction. See "--Financial Condition." Deposits grew to $982.7 million at
June 30, 1994 from $706.2 million at September 30, 1993. The growth in deposits
includes the impact of the June 1994 assumption of $275.0 million of deposits of
the Bank of Hartford.
For the three months ended June 30, 1994, Eagle had net income of $2.2
million, or $0.67 per share, compared to $1.6 million, or $0.52 per share, for
the same period in 1993. For the nine months ended June 30, 1994, Eagle had net
income of $5.6 million, or $1.74 per share, compared to $4.7 million, or $1.51
per share, for the same period in 1993. Eagle's return on average shareholders'
equity for the nine months ended June 30, 1994 was 12.01% (annualized). For the
same period, Eagle's return on average assets was 0.90%.
Increases in net income in recent fiscal years are principally
attributable to increases in the average balance, or volume, of interest-earning
assets, as interest rate margins remained relatively stable over such periods.
Since the second quarter of fiscal 1994, however, interest rates have risen. As
a result, those of Eagle's assets which are subject to repricing in the
short-term have begun to earn higher yields. In contrast, the prevailing market
interest rates paid on deposit liabilities, Eagle's primary source of funds and
largest amount of interest-bearing liabilities, have not significantly
increased. Eagle anticipates that if market interest rates continue to rise, the
cost of interest-bearing deposits will increase, thereby having a negative
impact on Eagle's average interest rate spread and net interest margin.
The operations of the Company and the entire thrift industry are
significantly affected by prevailing economic conditions, competition and the
monetary and fiscal policies of governmental agencies. Lending activities are
influenced by the demand for and supply of housing, competition among lenders,
the level of interest rates and the availability of funds. Deposit flow and
costs of funds are influenced by prevailing market rates of interest, primarily
on competing investments, account maturities, and the levels of personal income
and savings nationwide.
Results of Operations - Bank of Hartford Acquisition
The Bank of Hartford acquisition was completed on June 10, 1994 and,
although reflected in the financial condition of Eagle at June 30, 1994, did not
have a significant impact on Eagle's operating results for the nine months ended
June 30, 1994. As part of the acquisition, Eagle assumed deposits with a
weighted average interest cost of 3.82% at June 30, 1994. Eagle also acquired
$80.6 million of loans with a weighted average yield of 8.33% at June 30, 1994
and $72.7 million of investment securities priced at fair market value as of
June 10, 1994 (the date of acquisition). Eagle also received $112.4 million in
cash and cash receivables from the FDIC, substantially all of which was invested
initially in short-term securities and interest-bearing accounts. Eagle intends
to utilize such funds primarily for origination of loans and, to a lesser
extent, to purchase mortgage-backed and investment securities. See "-Financial
Condition." In addition, Eagle purchased the loan servicing rights on $80.5
million of loans with an average loan servicing fee of 0.375%.
The Bank of Hartford transaction is expected to have a positive impact
on the Company's efficiency ratio (other expenses to net interest income and
other income). As to other expenses, Eagle believes that the primary impact of
the transaction will be additional office occupancy and compensation related
expenses for the six new banking offices acquired. Eagle has retained
approximately 50 former branch personnel of the Bank of Hartford to operate the
new banking offices. Other expenses such as federal insurance premiums and data
processing expense also will increase as a result of the increase in deposit
accounts. As to the six new offices, as of June 30, 1994 the average amount of
deposits held in each office was $41.6 million, which approximates the average
amount of deposits held in the other banking offices of Eagle.
As part of the Bank of Hartford acquisition, Eagle intends to purchase
for $65,000 three former Bank of Hartford banking offices. Based on current
appraisals, Eagle believes that the fair value of the purchased offices will
exceed significantly the amount of the purchase price. The final determination
of fair value is subject to further review of current appraisals and
environmental issues related to the purchased offices. The amount of any excess
of fair value over the purchase price will result in a corresponding increase in
the carrying value of the purchased premises and a reduction in the amount of
the intangible asset that resulted from the Bank of Hartford transaction.
Results of Operations - Comparison of Periods Ended June 30, 1994 and 1993
Net Income - Eagle had net income of $5.6 million, or $1.74 per share,
for the nine months ended June 30, 1994, an increase of $888,000, or 18.8%, from
net income of $4.7 million, or $1.51 per share, for the comparable period in
1993. Net interest income increased $1.5 million, or 7.3%, from $20.4 million
for the nine months ended June 30, 1993 to $21.9 million for the comparable
period in 1994. Other income increased $441,000, or 24.4%, to $2.2 million for
the nine months ended June 30, 1994 and other expenses increased $1.5 million,
or 12.1%, to $13.5 million.
Eagle had net income of $2.2 million, or $0.67 per share, for the
quarter ended June 30, 1994, an increase of $531,000, or 32.6%, from net income
of $1.6 million, of $0.15 per share. Net interest income increased $660,000, or
9.3%, from $7.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 1993 to $7.7 million for
the quarter ended June 30, 1994. Compared to the June 30, 1993 quarter, other
income increased $189,000, or 30.2% to $815,000 for the quarter ended June 30,
1994, and other expenses increased $557,000, or 14.2%, to $4.5 million for the
quarter ended June 30, 1994.
Net Interest Income - Net interest income increased $660,00, or 9.3%,
from $7.1 million for the June 30, 1993 quarter to $7.7 million for the June 30,
1994 quarter. Net interest income increased $1.5 million, or 7.3%, to $21.9
million for the nine months ended June 30, 1994, as compared to $20.4 million
for the nine months ended June 30, 1993. The increased net interest income is
reflected in a $135,000 increase in interest income, coupled with a $1.4 million
decrease in interest expense. For the nine months ended June 30, 1994, Eagle's
average interest rate spread was 3.40%, and its net interest margin was 3.61%,
compared to 3.42% and 3.65%, respectively, for the nine months ended June 30,
1993.
Interest income for the June 30, 1994 quarter increased $916,000, or
6.6%, to $14.8 million, compared to $13.9 million for the comparable period in
1993. Interest income during the nine months ended June 30, 1994 remained
relatively stable compared to the same period in 1993, increasing $135,000, or
0.3%, to $42.1 million. Average interest earning assets increased to $807.7
million for the nine months ended June 30, 1994, compared to $744.8 million for
the same period in 1993. This increase is reflected primarily in a $64.6 million
increase in average loans receivable which resulted from high levels of loan
originations during the nine months ended June 30, 1994. The growth in average
interest-earning assets was substantially offset by a 56 basis point decline in
the average yield of such assets.
Interest expense for the June 30, 1994 quarter increased $256,000, or
3.7%, to $7.1 million, compared to $6.8 million for the comparable period in
1993. Interest expense decreased $1.4 million, or 6.3%, to $20.2 million for the
nine months ended June 30, 1994 compared to $21.6 million for the same period in
1993. Notwithstanding a $39.1 million increase in average deposits to $736.3
million for the nine months ended June 30, 1994, the interest expense
attributable to such funds decreased $2.0 million, resulting in an average cost
of deposits of 3.49% for the 1994 period compared to 4.06% for the 1993 period.
Average total borrowings also increased to $22.1 million during the 1994 period
compared to $6.1 million during the 1993 period. However, the average cost of
such borrowings in the 1994 period was 5.62% compared to 7.44% in the 1993
period. The average cost of funds for Eagle was 3.55% for the nine months ended
June 30, 1994 compared to 4.09% for the same period in 1993.
Provision for Loan Losses - Eagle added provisions for loan losses of
$300,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 1994, compared to $529,000 for the same
period in 1993. Eagle added provisions of $900,000 to its allowance for loan
losses during the nine month period ended June 30, 1994. This compares to $1.2
million in loan loss provisions for the nine months ended June 30, 1993. Net
loan charge-offs for the nine months ended June 30, 1994 were $1.0 million (or
0.15% of average net loans receivable), compared to $958,000 (or 0.11% of
average net loans receivables) for the same period in 1993. The decreased
provision in 1994 reflects management's analysis of the risk elements of the
loan portfolio, current delinquency and payment trends (including the slightly
increased level of loan charge-offs in the nine months ended June 30, 1994) and
the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. At June 30, 1994, Eagle's
allowance for loan losses was $8.4 million, or 1.07% of loans receivable,
compared with $4.5 million, or 0.70%, one year earlier. The allowance for loan
losses at June 30, 1994 includes $3.5 million added to the allowance as part of
the Bank of Hartford transaction. See "-Financial Condition - Allowance for Loan
Losses."
Other Income - Other income increased $189,000, or 30%, to $815,000 for
the June 30, 1994 quarter, compared to $626,000 for the same period in 1993. The
increase includes a $125,000 increase in customer services fee income.
Other income increased $441,000, or 24.4%, to $2.2 million for the nine
months ended June 30, 1994 from $1.8 million for the same period in 1993. The
increase in the 1994 nine month period is attributable primarily to a $120,000
net gain on sale of mortgage loans and a $218,000 increase in customer service
fee income.
Other Expenses - Other expenses increased $557,000, or 14.2%, to $4.5
million for the June 30, 1994 quarter, compared to $3.9 million for the same
period in 1993. The increase includes a $254,000 increase in compensation
related expenses, $61,000 increase in federal deposit insurance premiums and
$57,000 increase in data processing expenses.
Other expenses for the nine months ended June 30, 1994 increased $1.5
million, or 12.1%, to $13.5 million compared to $12.1 million for the nine month
period ended June 30, 1993. The largest contributing factors to the increase
included higher compensation related expenses of $6.4 million for the nine
months ended June 30, 1994, compared to $5.5 million for the same period in
1993, and larger provisions for losses on real estate owned of $435,000,
compared to $199,000 for the same respective periods. The higher compensation
related expenses reflect increased pension expenses for the 1994 period compared
to 1993 because the Company's pension plan was over-funded during part of 1993.
Also, the Company's post-retirement benefits expenses increased as a result of
the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 106
(see "-Cumulative Effect of Accounting Change" below). The increase in the
provision for losses on real estate owned during the first nine months of fiscal
1994 reflects Eagle's current strategy to sell properties more aggressively than
in the past. A total of 29 properties with a book value of $2.2 million were
sold in the nine months ended June 30, 1994.
Income Taxes - Income tax expense was $1.6 million for both the quarter
ended June 30, 1994 and June 30, 1993. Income tax expense was $4.1 million for
the nine months ended June 30, 1994, compared to $4.2 million for the same
period in 1993. Notwithstanding higher income during the 1994 period as compared
to the 1993 period, income tax expense was $157,000, or 3.7%, less for the 1994
period. As a result of the adoption of SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income
Taxes," (see "-Cumulative Effect of Accounting Change" below), Eagle is
permitted a tax benefit for certain real estate owned and loan loss provisions
that was not allowed under prior accounting rules.
Cumulative Effect of Accounting Changes - Eagle was required to adopt
two accounting pronouncements in the first quarter of fiscal 1994. The
cumulative effect of these accounting changes, net of related tax benefits, was
to reduce net income by approximately $30,000 during the nine months ended June
30, 1994. The adoption of SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes", resulted
in recognition of a tax benefit of approximately $1.3 million during the nine
months ended June 30, 1994. The adoption of SFAS No. 106, "Accounting for
Postretirement Benefits Other than Pensions", resulted in a one-time cumulative
adjustment that, net of the related tax benefit, reduced net income by
approximately $1.3 million.
Financial Condition
Total assets of the Company increased to $1.1 billion at June 30, 1994
from $792.5 million at September 30, 1993. The growth in assets from fiscal year
end 1993 to June 30, 1994 reflects primarily Eagle's acquisition of certain
assets and assumption of certain liabilities of the Bank of Hartford from the
FDIC. In the Bank of Hartford transaction, which was completed on June 10, 1994,
Eagle acquired $267.3 million of assets, including $80.6 million of loans
(substantially all of which were 1-4 family first mortgage and home equity
loans), $112.4 million of cash, other amounts due from banks and cash
receivables due from the FDIC, $72.7 million of investment securities
(substantially all of which are U.S. Treasury and government agency securities)
and $1.6 million of other assets (primarily accrued interest receivable on the
purchased loans). Also, as part of the Bank of Hartford acquisition, Eagle
intends to purchase three of the former Bank of Hartford banking offices. See
"--Results of Operations -- Bank of Hartford Acquisition."
Loans Receivable, Net - The Company's net loans receivable portfolio
increased to $775.1 million at June 30, 1994 from $656.3 million at September
30, 1993. The growth in the net loans receivable portfolio reflects strong total
loan originations of $164.1 million during the nine months ended June 30, 1994.
Increased loan origination activity during the first nine months of fiscal 1994
is due in substantial part to refinancings of mortgage loans in reaction to
generally low market interest rates. Also, in June 1994 the Bank acquired $80.6
million of loans in the Bank of Hartford transaction. Substantially all of the
loans purchased in this transaction consisted of 1-4 family first mortgage and
home equity loans.
Allowance for Loan Losses - At June 30, 1994, Eagle's allowance for
loan losses totaled $8.4 million, compared to $5.0 million at September 30,
1993. Management monitors the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses and
periodically makes additions based upon an ongoing assessment of the loan
portfolio. During the nine months ended June 30, 1994, in addition to a $900,000
provisions for loan losses, Eagle increased the allowance by $3.5 million in
connection with the acquisition of $80.6 million of loans in the Bank of
Hartford transaction.
Management monitors the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses and
periodically makes additions in the form of provisions for loan losses based
upon an ongoing assessment of the loan portfolio. These provisions are based on
an evaluation of the loan portfolio, past loan loss experience, current market
and economic conditions, volume, growth and composition of the loan portfolio,
and other relevant factors. The provisions are computed quarterly based on a
review of the loan portfolio. The additional $3.5 million and $1.8 million of
allowance for loan losses that were booked as part of the Bank of Hartford and
Danbury Federal transactions, respectively, were based on management's
evaluation of the loans acquired in these transactions. Such evaluation included
an analysis of the loss on all delinquent loans as well as the risk of the
remaining 1-4 family and consumer loans acquired. The additional allowances were
accounted for as an adjustment to the premium paid by Eagle in the Bank of
Hartford and Danbury Federal transactions.
The ratio of allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans was 104%
and 77% at June 30, 1994 and September 30, 1993, respectively. This coverage
ratio will vary from time to time based upon the composition of, and
management's analysis of the risk elements in the loan portfolio, as well as the
composition of problem loans. The allowance for loan losses is not based on a
percentage of non-performing loans, but on the total portfolio classified by
risk group plus estimated losses on individual problem loans.
The following table sets forth the amount of accruing loans delinquent
60-89 days, the amount of non-accrual loans, the balance of the Company's
allowance for loan losses and the coverage ratio of such allowance to the total
of loans at the dates indicated. See "--Non-performing Assets" below for
definition of non-accrual loans.

</TABLE>
At June 30, 1994, loans delinquent 60 days or more (including
non-performing loans) totaled $6.8 million (before giving effect to $2.9 million
of such loans acquired in the Bank of Hartford transaction), compared to $8.9
million at September 30, 1993 and $6.3 million at September 30, 1992. Eagle's
progress in reducing loans delinquent 60 days or more during the nine months
ended June 30, 1994 is attributable to a stabilized Connecticut economy coupled
with the Bank's increased collection efforts earlier in the collection cycle.
Various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination
process, periodically review the Bank's allowance for losses on loans and real
estate owned. Such agencies may require the Bank to recognize additions to the
allowances based on their judgments of information available to them at the time
of their examination. The OTS completed a regularly scheduled examination of the
Bank during 1993 and no changes to the allowance for loan losses were required
at that time.
Non-performing Assets - All mortgage and home equity loans generally
are placed on a non-accrual basis when a loan is contractually delinquent for
more than three complete calendar months, when collectability is doubtful or
when legal action has been instituted. Unsecured consumer loans are placed on a
non-accrual basis when a payment default has existed for more than 60 days or
when collectability is doubtful or when legal action has been instituted; such
loans are fully charged-off when a payment default has existed for 90 days.
At June 30, 1994, the Company's total non-performing assets, including
non-performing (or non-accrual) loans, real estate owned as a result of
foreclosure or deed in lieu thereof and in-substance foreclosures, was $12.0
million or 1.09% of total assets. Non-performing assets were $9.2 million or
1.10% of total assets (without giving effect to the $2.8 million of
non-performing assets acquired in the Bank of Hartford transaction). This
compares to non-performing assets of $12.0 million, or 1.51% of total assets, at
September 30, 1993. Exclusive of the non-performing assets acquired in the Bank
of Hartford transaction, the amount of non-performing assets has declined during
the nine months ended June 30, 1994. Management believes this trend reflects the
stabilization in the real estate market and economy in Connecticut over the past
12-18 months.
At June 30, 1994, non-performing assets (including the $2.8 million
acquired in the Bank of Hartford transaction) included $8.0 million in
non-performing loans and $3.9 million in real estate owned and in-substance
foreclosures. At September 30, 1993, non-performing assets included $6.5 million
in non-performing loans and $5.5 million in real estate owned and in-substance
foreclosures.
Although the level of non-performing loans has declined in the nine
months ended June 30, 1994 (before giving effect to the non-performing assets
acquired in the Bank of Hartford transaction), management expects a number of
the non-performing loans to become real estate owned. The overall level of real
estate owned will depend on the number of loans which can be resolved prior to
foreclosure and the ability of Eagle to sell properties which it owns. The
Company aggressively markets properties and has been able to decrease the level
of real estate owned during the nine months ended June 30, 1994. A more active
real estate market reduces the level of non-performing loans and real estate
owned as properties are sold. Demand for 1-4 family residential properties in
the Company's market areas has been strong in recent months.
Mortgage-Backed and Investment Securities - The Company's total
holdings of mortgage-backed and investment securities increased to $173.3
million at June 30, 1994 from $88.4 million at September 30, 1993. The increase
from fiscal year end 1993 to June 30, 1994 reflects the purchase of investment
securities funded with matching FHLB advances, as well as the acquisition of
$72.7 million of investment securities, substantially all of which are U.S.
Treasury and agency securities, in the Bank of Hartford transaction.
The Company's investment portfolio at June 30, 1994 was comprised
primarily of U.S. Treasury and government agency securities and other investment
securities rated in the top grade by at least one nationally recognized rating
agency. The collateralized mortgage obligation portion of the investment
portfolio contains no derivative investment securities such as interest only
tranches, principal only tranches or strips.
Deposits - Deposits increased to $982.7 million at June 30, 1994 from
$706.2 million at September 30, 1993. The growth in deposits includes the
assumption of $275.0 million of deposits of the Bank of Hartford in June 1994.
Total borrowings increased to $31.6 million at June 30, 1994 from $16.3 million
at September 30, 1993. The increase in borrowed money for the first nine months
of fiscal 1994 reflects the use of FHLB advances to fund a portion of loan
originations and to purchase investment securities with matching durations. Loan
originations also were funded with loan repayments and deposits.
Asset and Liability Management
Net interest income, the primary component of the Company's net income,
is derived from the difference or "spread" between the yield on interest-earning
assets and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities. The Company has sought to
reduce its exposure to changes in interest rates by matching more closely the
effective maturities and repricings of its interest-sensitive assets and
liabilities. At the same time, the Company's asset and liability management
strategies also must accommodate customer demands for particular types of
deposit and loan products.
While much of the Company's asset and liability management efforts
involve strategies which increase the rate sensitivity of its loans and
investments, such as originations of adjustable rate loans and purchases of
adjustable rate mortgage-backed securities and short term investments, it also
uses certain techniques to reduce the rate sensitivity of its deposits and
borrowed money. Those techniques include attracting longer term certificates of
deposit when the market will permit, emphasizing core deposits which are less
sensitive to changes in interest rates, and borrowing through long-term FHLB
advances. At June 30, 1994 and September 30, 1993, 57.8% and 58.3%,
respectively, of Eagle's net loans receivable portfolio consisted of
adjustable-rate mortgage and other loans. While Eagle has generally retained its
local loan originations in portfolio, it may from time to time sell loans to
maintain an acceptable interest rate sensitivity tolerance.
The Company measures its exposure to rate fluctuations on a quarterly
basis primarily by using a computer modeling system designed for savings
institutions such as Eagle Federal. The computer modeling system quantifies the
approximate impact that increases and decreases in interest rates would have on
Eagle's net interest income. Under the model, interest rates are assumed to move
to specified levels on an immediate or "shock" basis. The Board-approved
tolerance for decreases in net interest income is up to 20%, based upon the
model's prediction of the impact of an immediate 200 basis point increase in
interest rates. At June 30, 1994, according to the computer model and using
asset and liability repricing assumptions based on Eagle's historical
experience, if interest rates were to immediately increase by 200 basis points
the negative impact on the Company's net interest income would be within the
Board-approved tolerance level.
The Company also monitors other indicators of interest rate risk. One
commonly used measure of interest rate risk exposure is reflected in the
Company's one-year cumulative gap, which is the difference between rate
sensitive assets and rate sensitive liabilities maturing or repricing within one
year. An asset or liability is said to be interest rate sensitive within a
specific period if it will mature or reprice within that period. The interest
rate sensitivity gap is defined as the difference between the amount of
interest-earning assets maturing or repricing within a specific time period and
the amount of interest-bearing liabilities maturing or repricing within that
time period. A gap is considered positive when the amount of interest rate
sensitive assets exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities, and
is considered negative when the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities
exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive assets.
At June 30, 1994, using assumptions based on the Bank's historical
experience, the Company's one-year gap was positive 2.7%. The Company's current
asset liability management strategy is to maintain a one-year gap within a
tolerance of plus or minus 15%. However, the Company believes there are certain
shortcomings inherent in the gap analysis and, accordingly does not rely solely
on gap analysis as an accurate measure of interest rate risk. Although certain
assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or periods of repricing, they
may react in different degrees to changes in market interest rates. The interest
rates on certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of
changes in market interest rates, while interest rates on other types of assets
and liabilities may lag behind changes in market interest rates. Certain assets,
such as adjustable-rate mortgages, have features which restrict changes in
interest rates on a short-term basis and over the life of the assets. In the
event of a change in interest rates, prepayment and early withdrawal levels
would likely deviate significantly from those assumed in calculating the table.
The ability of many borrowers to service their debt may decrease in the event of
an interest rate increase.
Under OTS regulations to be effective as of September 30, 1994, an
institution's interest rate risk exposure is measured based upon a 200 basis
point change in market interest rates. A savings institution whose measured
interest rate risk exposure is greater than specified levels must deduct an
interest rate risk component when calculating total capital for purposes of
determining regulatory risk-based capital levels. As of June 30, 1994, the
Company believes that it would not have been required to deduct any interest
rate risk component under the OTS interest rate risk capital regulations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Total shareholders' equity increased to $64.6 million at June 30, 1994
from $60.4 million at September 30, 1993. The increase in shareholders' equity
during the first nine months of fiscal 1994 reflects total net income of $5.6
million, offset by cash dividends to shareholders aggregating $1.8 million. Also
during the period, shareholders' equity increased by $1.1 million as a result of
a reduction in debt related to the Company's employee stock ownership plan,
exercise of stock options, and purchases by shareholders under the Company's
dividend reinvestment and stock purchase plan. This increase was partly offset
by a $675,000 reduction in shareholders' equity at June 30, 1994 to reflect net
unrealized losses on the Company's mutual fund and marketable equity securities
portfolio.
Management periodically reviews the unrealized losses on securities to
assess whether a security has an other than temporary decline in value. At June
30, 1994, management did not believe that any of Eagle's securities had an other
than temporary decline in value that should result in a write down of securities
and a corresponding decrease in the Company's income. Management continues to
monitor whether any portions of the $675,000 net unrealized losses on the
Company's mutual fund and marketable securities portfolio (on a pre-tax basis at
June 30, 1994) should be reflected through a write-down of such securities
during future periods.
As a member of the FHLB System, the Bank is required to maintain liquid
assets at 5% of its withdrawable deposits plus short-term borrowings. At June
30, 1994, the Bank was in compliance with the OTS liquidity requirements, having
a ratio of 11.7%.
The Company's principal sources of funds include deposits, loan
payments (including interest, amortization of principal and prepayments),
earnings and amortization on investments, maturing investments and FHLB
advances. Principal uses of funds include loan originations, investments,
payments of interest on deposits, and payments to meet operating expenses. At
June 30, 1994, the Company had approximately $75.4 million in loan commitments
outstanding including $24.2 million in available home equity lines of credit and
$7.5 million in amounts due borrowers for construction loan advances. It is
expected that these and future loans will be funded primarily by deposits, loan
repayments, investment maturities and amortization and borrowings. The Bank has
the aggregate capacity to borrow up to $625.6 million in advances from the FHLB
of Boston and will continue to consider this source for lending. FHLB advances
at June 30, 1994 were $23.7 million, compared to $15.5 million at September 30,
1993.
It is the Company's general policy to purchase debt securities
(including mortgage-backed securities) with the intent and ability to hold to
maturity for purposes of earning interest income and meeting regulatory
liquidity requirements. Events which may be reasonably anticipated are
considered when determining the Company's intent to hold investment securities
to maturity. Such securities are classified as investment securities and are
stated at cost adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts.
Equity securities and mutual fund investments are accounted for, in the
aggregate, at the lower of cost or market value with any unrealized loss being
recorded as a reduction to shareholders' equity. When a security available for
sale is sold, the proceeds are used to fund loans when deposit flows are not
adequate, the rates offered on advances are not favorable, and liquidity ratios
support such sales. Management believes such an approach to be prudent since it
provides an opportunity to reinvest the proceeds from sales of this type into
higher yielding mortgage loans. The Company also occasionally sells securities
available for sale to restructure an asset/liability mismatch. During the nine
months ended June 30, 1994, Eagle sold $2.8 million of investment securities.
During fiscal 1993, investment securities sold totaled $12.0 million, producing
net gains of $52,000, while maturing investment securities totaled $6.4 million.
There were no mortgage-backed securities sold or maturing in fiscal 1993.
The Bank is required by the OTS to meet minimum capital requirements,
which include tangible capital, core capital and risk-based capital
requirements. The Bank's actual capital as reported to the OTS at June 30, 1994
exceeded all three requirements. The following chart sets forth the actual and
required minimum levels of regulatory capital for the Bank under applicable OTS
regulations as of June 30, 1994:

</TABLE>
The OTS has proposed to increase the minimum required core capital
ratio from the current 3% level to a range of 4% to 5% for all but the most
highly rated financial institutions. While the OTS has not taken final action on
such proposal, it has adopted a prompt corrective action regulation that
classifies any savings institution that maintains a core capital ratio of less
than 4% (3% in the event the institution was assigned a composite 1 rating in
its most recent report of examination) as "undercapitalized." As of June 30,
1994, the Bank had a core capital ratio of 4.66% and met the requirements for an
"adequately capitalized" institution.
Recent Accounting Developments
In May 1993, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
SFAS No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan. SFAS No. 114
requires that loans be impaired when it is probable that a creditor will be
unable to collect all amounts (i.e., principal and interest) contractually due,
and that the impairment be measured based on the present value of expected
future cash flows discounted at the loan's original effective interest rate.
SFAS No. 114 also allows impairments to be measured based on the loan's market
price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.
The effective date for SFAS No. 114 is for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 1994. Eagle has not yet determined the impact of adoption of this statement.
In May 1993, the FASB issued SFAS No. 115, Accounting for Certain
Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. SFAS No. 115 generally would require
that debt and equity securities that have readily determinable fair values be
carried at fair value unless they are classified as held to maturity. Securities
would be classified as held to maturity and carried at amortized cost only if
the reporting entity has a positive intent and ability to hold those securities
to maturity. If not classified as held to maturity, such securities would be
classified as trading securities or securities available for sale. Unrealized
holding gains or losses for securities available for sale would be excluded from
earnings and reported as a net amount in a separate component of shareholders'
equity. The effective date for the statement is for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1993. Based on the securities held by Eagle at June 30, 1994 the
Company does not believe that this statement will have a material effect on the
classification of its securities upon adoption. The impact on Eagle's future
financial position or results of operations will be based on the future fair
values of its securities.
