ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION:
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
Premier's active non-bank subsidiary, Premier Bank Services Corporation,
because of the low volume of activity, discontinued servicing certain consumer
loans for selected affiliate Banks during the second quarter of 1993.
Preparations made during the latter half of 1993 to offer investment advisory
services to Premier banks as well as other financial institutions and investing
groups through this service corporation were also discontinued, and, the
corporation is no longer active.
EARNINGS PERFORMANCE
Net income for the first six months of 1994 was $4,184,000, a $448,000 or 9.67%
decrease over the $4,632,000 earned for the same period in 1993. The six months
earnings for both 1994 and 1993 include non-recurring adjustments to income.
One affiliate bank during the first quarter of 1994 disposed of bonds backed by
the failed Executive Life Insurance Company, which were in default and had
previously been written down, adding approximately $513,000 in security gains;
$339,000, net of the tax effect. First quarter 1993 reflected an approximate
$439,000 decrease in federal incom tax expense due to the implementation of
FASB 109 and the realization of tax benefits on a net loss carryforward which
could be recaptured following the 1991 merger of Bank of Speedwell and Bank of
Shawsville. Also, due to restructing of the investment portfolio, one
affiliate bank booked security gains of $656,000 during the second quarter of
1993. As a result, on a per share basis, net income for the fist six months of
1994 decreased to $0.95 compared to $1.05 for the same period in 1993, with
4,405,127 average shares outstanding for both the three and six months
outstanding for 1994; and 4,405,129 and 4,405,186 average shares outstanding
for 1993, respectively.
NET INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income, before provision for loan losses for the six months ended
June 30, 1994, amounted to $11,626,000, a $822,000, or 7.61% increase from
$10,804,000 recorded for the same period of 1993. The net interest
differential
for this period (the difference between the tax-equivalent yield on interest
bearing assets and the rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities) decreased 25
basis points to 4.07%. The tax-equivalent yield on earning assets decreased
from 8.34% in 1993 to 7.79% in 1994 while the rate paid on interest-bearing
liabilities) decreaded 25 basic points to 4.07%. The tax-equivalent yield on
earning assets decreased from 8.34% in 1993 to 7.79% in 1994 while the rate
paid on interest-bearing liabilities decreased 30 basis points to 3.72%.
The net yield (fully taxable equivalent) on earning assets decreased 33 basis
points in 1994 to 4.61% compared to 4.94% in 1993. Yields on loans,
nontaxable, and taxable investment securities decreased 30, 97, 81 basis
points, respectively, while the yields on interest-bearing deposits with banks
increased 27 basis points, along with an increase in fed funds sold of 49 basis
points. Adjustments to rates paid on interest-bearing deposits, savings, and
other time deposit rates decreasing 37,32, and 22 basis points, respectively.
The rate paid on short-term borrowings increased 22 basis points. Premier's
long-term debt was paid off in 1993.
OTHER INCOME AND EXPENSES
Total other income decreased $337,000 or 12.38% to $2,386,000 due mostly to a
decrease in security gains during 1994 of $294,000 to $682,000 compared to
$976,000 in the first half of 1993. As mentioned previously, the majority of
the 1994 security gains was from a $513,000 gain by one affiliate bank from
the sale of bonds which were in default and had been previously written down.
Other service charges, commissions and fees decreased $8,000 in 1994, the most
significant changes being a decrease in loan extension/other fees of $65,000
from 1993, and increase in loan collection fees and credit life and A & H sales
of $14,000 and $23,000, respecitvely, over 1993. Total service charges on
deposit accounts increased $103,000 with the majority of the increase in NSF and
returned check charges, attributable mostly to increased per-item fees. Fee
income from estate settlements account for the decrease of $63,000 in trust
department income in 1994.
OTHER INCOME AND EXPENSES (Continued)
Other expenses increased $743,000 or 9.95% over June 30, 1993. Salaries
increased 7.64%, and employee benefits 15.83%, due in part to staffing of an
additional branch in mid-summer 1993, the employement of additional personnel
at the individual bank and holding company levels, and normal salary increases.
Occupancy decreased $12,000, while furniture and equipment expenses increased
$76,000 or 21.65%, due largely to the purchase of data processing equipment.
Other operating expenses increased $322,000 in 1994 or 11.12% with the most
significant changes being an increase in legal fees of $230,000, increased FDIC
assessment fees of $69,000 over the same period in 1993, and additional audit
and tax expense of $64,000. Data processing fees decreased $144,000 due
largely to the expiration and renegotiation of the independent service bureau
contract in the latter half of 1993. Less significant increases and decreases
account for the difference.
INVESTMENTS, LOANS, AND DEPOSITS
Net loans increased $13,977,000 or 5.01%, investments increased $25,824,000
or 12.21%, fed funds sold decreased $25,105,000 or 72.42%, with an increase
in total assets of $20,007,000 or 3.59% over December 31, 1993. One affiliate
bank purchased $13,000,000 in local branch deposits of one of its competitors
during the second quarter of 1994, accounting for a large portion of the
$17,088,000 increase in deposits over December 31, 1993. Deman deposits,
interest-bearing demand deposits, and other time deposits increased 18.89%,
6.99%, and 4.67%, respectively. Large denomination certificates of
deposit decreased by $3,919,000 or 10.69% while savings held at the same
level. Fed funds purchased and repurchase agreements increased $4,968,000
over year end 1993.
Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses
The allowance for loan and lease losses on June 30, 1994, was $4,626,000
compared to $4,481,000 at December 31, 1993, and $4,544,000 at June 30, 1994.
Charge-offs were $239,000 for the first six months of 1994 compared to
$764,000 for the same period in 1993. Recoveries of $189,000 were booked
in the first six months of 1994; $226,000 in 1993. Management believes
the allowance is adequate at the June 30, 1994 level, after making provisions
during the year of $195,000.
Capital Resources
Total stockholders equity or capital amounted to $53,727,000 at June 30, 1994.
The leverage ratio at June 30, 1994 at 9.67%.
Liquidity and interest Sensitivity
Almost the entire deposit base is made up of core deposits with only 6.53% of
toal deposits compose of Certificates of deposit of $100,000 and over.
At June 30, 1994, federal funds and investment securities maturing within
one year amounted to $16,300,000, or 3.25% of total deposits. In addition,
$71,000,000 of investment securities or 14.21% of deposits, mature within the
1-5 year range.
The policy of Premier is to maintain the relationship between rate-sensitive
assets and rate-sensitive liabilities which will maximize future profit
levels, given existing expectations of interest rate movements.
