Century Bancorp Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
BASIS OF In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited
PRESENTATION interim consolidated financial statements reflect all
adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which
are necessary to present a fair statement of the results for
the interim period presented of Century Bancorp, Inc. (the
"Company") and its wholly owned subsidiary, Century Bank and
Trust Company (the "Bank"). The results of operations for the
interim period ended June 30, 1998, are not necessarily
indicative of results for the entire year. It is suggested
that these statements be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto
included in the Company's Annual Report.
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles and to general
practices within the banking industry. In preparing the
financial statements, management is required to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and revenues
and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
Material estimates that are susceptible to change in the
near-term relate to the allowance for losses on loans.
Management believes that the allowance for losses on loans is
adequate based on independent appraisals and review of other
factors associated with the assets. While management uses
available information to recognize losses on loans, future
additions to the allowance for loans may be necessary based on
changes in economic conditions. In addition, regulatory
agencies periodically review the Company's allowance for
losses on loans. Such agencies may require the Company to
recognize additions to the allowance for loans based on their
judgements about information available to them at the time of
their examination.
RECENT ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS
In June 1997, FASB issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income." SFAS No. 130 establishes standards for
reporting and displaying comprehensive income, which is
defined as all changes to equity except investments by and
distributions to shareholders. Net income is a component of
comprehensive income, with all other components referred to in
the aggregate as other comprehensive income. The Bank has
adopted SFAS No. 130 effective for January 1, 1998.
Also in June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures
about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,"
which establishes standards for reporting information about
operating segments. An operating segment is defined as a
component of a business for which separate financial
information is available that is evaluated regularly by the
chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate
resources and evaluate performance. This statement requires a
company to disclose certain income statement and balance sheet
information by operating
7 of 16
<PAGE> 8
segment, as well as provide a reconciliation of operating
segment information to the company's consolidated balances.
The Company has determined that the adoption of this statement
did not have a significant impact on its consolidated
financial statements.
In February 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 132, "Employers'
Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement
Benefits--an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, and
106." This Statement revises employers' disclosures about
pension and other postretirement benefit plans. It does not
change the measurement or recognition of those plans. It
standardizes the disclosure requirements for pensions and
other postretirement benefits to the extent practicable,
requires additional information on changes in the benefit
obligations and fair values of plan assets that will
facilitate financial analysis, and eliminates certain
disclosures that are no longer as useful as they were when
FASB Statements No. 87, "Employers' Accounting for Pensions,"
No. 88, "Employers' Accounting for Settlements and
Curtailments of Defined Benefit Pension Plans and for
Termination Benefits," and No. 106, "Employers' Accounting for
Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions," were issued. The
Statement suggests combined formats for presentation of
pension and other postretirement benefit disclosures. This
statement is effective for 1998 annual financial statements.
In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" which amends
FASB Statements No. 52, 80, 105, and 107, as well as,
nullifies or modifies the consensuses reached in a number of
issues addressed by the Emerging Issues Task Force. This
statement establishes accounting and reporting standards for
derivative instruments, including certain derivative
instruments embedded in other contracts, (collectively
referred to as derivatives) and for hedging activities. It
requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either
assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position
and measure those instruments at fair value. If certain
conditions are met, a derivative may be specifically
designated as (a) a hedge of the exposure to changes in the
fair value of a recognized asset or liability or an
unrecognized firm commitment, (b) a hedge of the exposure to
variable cash flows of a forecasted transaction, or (c ) a
hedge of the foreign currency exposure of a net investment in
a foreign operation, an unrecognized firm commitment, an
available-for-sale security, or a foreign-currency-denominated
forecasted transaction.
Under this Statement, an entity that elects to apply hedge
accounting is required to establish at the inception of the
hedge the method it will use for assessing the effectiveness
of the hedging derivative and the measurement approach for
determining the ineffective aspect of the hedge. Those methods
must be consistent with the entity's approach to managing
risk.
The Statement is effective for the year 2000 financial
statements.
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Century Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") and its wholly-owned
subsidiary, Century
8 of 16
<PAGE> 9
Bank and Trust Company (the "Bank"). The Company provides a
full range of banking services to individual, business and
municipal customers in Massachusetts. As a bank holding
company, the Company is subject to the regulation and
supervision of the Federal Reserve Board. The Bank, a state
chartered financial institution, is subject to supervision and
regulation by applicable state and federal banking agencies,
including the Federal Reserve Board, the Office of the
Comptroller of the Currency (the "Comptroller") and the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC").
The Bank is also subject to various requirements and
restrictions under federal and state law, including
requirements to maintain reserves against deposits,
restrictions on the types and amounts of loans that may be
granted and the interest that may be charged thereon, and
limitations on the types of investments that may be made and
the types of services that may be offered. Various consumer
laws and regulations also affect the operations of the Bank.
In addition to the impact of regulation, commercial banks are
affected significantly by the actions of the Federal Reserve
Board as it attempts to control the money supply and credit
availability in order to influence the economy. All aspects of
the Company's business are highly competitive. The Company
faces aggressive competition from other lending institutions
and from numerous other providers of financial services.
INVESTMENT SECURITIES
Debt securities that the Company has the positive intent and
ability to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity
and reported at amortized cost; debt and equity securities
that are bought and held principally for the purpose of
selling are classified as trading and reported at fair value,
with unrealized gains and losses included in earnings; and
debt and equity securities not classified as either
held-to-maturity or trading are classified as
available-for-sale and reported at fair value, with unrealized
gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported as a
separate component of stockholders' equity, net of estimated
related income taxes. The Company has no securities held for
trading.
Premiums and discounts on investment securities are amortized
or accreted into income by use of the level-yield method. If a
decline in fair value below the amortized cost basis of an
investment is judged to be other than temporary, the cost
basis of the investment is written down to fair value. The
amount of the writedown is included as a charge to earnings.
Gains and losses on the sale of investment securities are
recognized at the time of sale on a specific identification
basis.
LOANS
Interest on loans is recognized based on the daily principal
amount outstanding. Accrual of interest is discontinued when
loans become 90 days delinquent unless the collateral is
sufficient to cover both principal and interest and the loan
is in the process of collection. Loans, including impaired
loans, on which the accrual of interest has been discontinued
are designated non-accrual loans. When a loan is placed on
non-accrual, all income which has been accrued but remains
unpaid is reversed against
9 of 16
<PAGE> 10
current period income and all amortization of deferred loan
fees is discontinued. Non-accrual loans may be returned to an
accrual status when principal and interest payments are not
delinquent and the risk characteristics of the loan have
improved to the extent that there no longer exists a concern
as to the collectibility of principal and income. Income
received on non-accrual loans is either recorded in income or
applied to the principal balance of the loan depending on
management's evaluation as to the collectibility of principal.
Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of aggregate cost
or market value. Gain or loss on sales of loans is recognized
at the time of sale when the sales proceeds exceed or are less
than the Bank's investment in the loans. Additionally, gains
and losses are recognized when the average interest rate on
the loans sold, adjusted for normal servicing fee, differs
from the agreed yield to the buyer. The resulting excess
service fee receivables, if any, are amortized using the
interest method over the estimated life of the loans, adjusted
for estimated prepayments.
Discounts and premiums on loans purchased from failed
financial institutions that represent market yield adjustments
are accreted or amortized to interest income over the
estimated lives of the loans using the level-yield method.
Loan origination fees and related direct incremental loan
origination costs are offset and the resulting net amount is
deferred and amortized over the life of the related loans
using the level-yield method.
The Bank accounts for impaired loans, except those loans that
are accounted for at fair value or at lower of cost or fair
value, at the present value of the expected future cash flows
discounted at the loan's effective interest rate. This method
applies to all loans, uncollateralized as well as
collateralized, except large groups of smaller-balance
homogeneous loans that are collectively evaluated for
impairment, loans that are measured at fair value and leases
and debt securities. Management considers the payment status,
net worth and earnings potential of the borrower, and the
value and cash flow of the collateral as factors to determine
if a loan will be paid in accordance with its contractual
terms. Management does not set any minimum delay of payments
as a factor in reviewing for impaired classification. Impaired
loans are charged-off when management believes that the
collectibility of the loan's principal is remote. In addition,
criteria for classification of a loan as in-substance
foreclosure has been modified so that such classification need
be made only when a lender is in possession of the collateral.
The Bank measures the impairment of troubled debt
restructurings using the pre-modification rate of interest.
ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
The allowance for loan losses is based on management's
evaluation of the quality of the loan portfolio and is used to
absorb losses resulting from loans which ultimately prove
uncollectible. In determining the level of the allowance,
periodic evaluations are made of the loan portfolio which take
into account such factors as the character of the loans, loan
status, financial posture of the borrowers, value of
collateral securing the loans and other relevant information
sufficient to reach an informed judgement. The allowance is
increased by provisions charged to income and reduced by loan
charge-offs, net of recoveries.

While management uses available information in establishing
the allowance for loan losses, future adjustments to the
allowance may be necessary if economic conditions differ
substantially from the assumptions used in making the
evaluations. Loans are charged off in whole or in part when,
in management's opinion, collectibility is not probable.
Management believes that the allowance for loan losses is
adequate. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as part of
their examination process, periodically review the Company's
allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require the
Company to recognize additions to the allowance based on their
judgements about information available to them at the time of
their examination.
OTHER REAL ESTATE OWNED
Other real estate owned ("OREO") includes real estate acquired
by foreclosure and real estate substantively repossessed. Real
estate acquired by foreclosure is comprised of properties
acquired through foreclosure proceedings or acceptance of a
deed in lieu of foreclosure. Real estate substantively
repossessed includes only those loans for which the Company
has taken possession of the collateral, but has not completed
legal foreclosure proceedings. Both in-substance foreclosures
and real estate formally acquired in settlement of loans are
recorded at the lower of the carrying value of the loan or the
fair value of the property constructively or actually
received. Loan losses from the acquisition of such properties
are charged against the allowance for loan losses. After
foreclosure, if the fair value of an asset minus its estimated
cost to sell is less than the carrying value of the asset,
such amount is recognized as a valuation allowance. If the
fair value of an asset less its estimated cost to sell
subsequently increases so that the resulting amount is more
than the asset's current carrying value, the valuation
allowance is reversed by the amount of the increase. Increases
or decreases in the valuation allowance are charged or
credited to income. Gains upon disposition of OREO are
reflected in the statement of income as realized. Realized
losses are charged to the valuation allowance.
BANK PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT
Bank premises and equipment are stated at cost less
accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is
computed using the straight-line method over the estimated
useful lives of the assets or the terms of leases, if shorter.
It is general practice to charge the cost of maintenance and
repairs to operations when incurred; major expenditures for
improvements are capitalized and depreciated.
INCOME TAXES
The Company uses 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
11 of 16
<PAGE> 12
apply to taxable income in the years in which temporary
differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under
this method, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities
of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period
that includes the enactment date.

ITEM 2 MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
OVERVIEW For the quarter ended and year-to-date ended June 30, 1998.
Earnings for the second quarter ended June 30, 1998 were $2.0
million, an increase of 19.3% when compared with the second
quarter 1997 earnings of $1.7 million. Diluted earnings per
share for the second quarter 1998 were $0.34 versus $0.29 for
the second quarter of 1997.
For the six months ending June 30, 1998, earnings were $3,787
thousand an increase of 24.6% when compared with the same
period last year earnings of $3,039 thousand. Diluted earnings
per share were $.65 for the first six months of 1997 compared
with $.52 for the first six months of 1997.
The Company has completed a comprehensive review of its
computer systems to identify the systems that could be
affected by the "Year 2000" issue and has developed an
implementation plan to resolve the issue. The implementation
plan includes obtaining representations from software vendors
for compliance with the Year 2000 processing and developing a
strategy to test Year 2000 compliance.
The Company's previously planned conversion to a new core
processing system is scheduled to be completed during the
third quarter of 1998. The vendor has represented that its
system is Year 2000 compliant and testing will begin after the
conversion is complete. Testing of other critical systems will
begin during the fourth quarter of 1998. The cost associated
with the "Year 2000" issue is not expected to have a material
impact on the Financial Statements.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
LOANS On June 30, 1998 total loans outstanding, net of unearned
discount, were $387.8 million, an increase of 24.5% from the
total on December 31, 1997. At June 30, 1998 commercial real
estate loans accounted for 46.7% and residential real estate
loans and real estate loans held-for-sale accounted for 28.5%
of total loans. Construction loans increased to $19.6 million
at June 30, 1998 from $10.6 million at the end of the previous
quarter. Total loans increased primarily as a result of the
acquisition of Haymarket.

Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operation (con't.)
ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
The allowance for loan losses was 1.53% of total loans on June
30, 1998 compared with 1.41% on December 31, 1997. Net
recoveries for the six month period ended June 30, 1998, were
$29 thousand, compared with net charge-offs of $131 thousand
for the same period in 1997. The allowance for loan losses is
based on management's overview of the quality of the loan
portfolio, previous loan loss experience and current economic
conditions.
As of June 30, 1998, loans on non-accrual status totaled $1.8
million or .46% of loans; loans past due 90 days or more
totaled $168 thousand; restructured performing loans totaled
$1.0 million.
SECURITIES HELD-TO-MATURITY
The securities held-to-maturity portfolio totaled $121.3
million on June 30, 1998, an increase of 11.1% from the total
on December 31, 1997. The portfolio is concentrated in United
States Treasury and Agency securities and had a weighted
average maturity of 3.8 years.
SECURITIES AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE
The securities available-for-sale portfolio totaled $185.5
million at June 30, 1998, an increase of 107.9 % from December
31, 1997. The portfolio is concentrated in United States
Treasury and Agency securities and had a weighted average
maturity of 2.9 years. Total securities available-for-sale
increased primarily as a result of the acquisition of
Haymarket.
OTHER ASSETS
On June 30 1998 other real estate owned totaled $130 thousand
compared to $0 at December 31, 1997.
DEPOSITS AND BORROWED FUNDS
On June 30, 1998 deposits totaled $621.1 million, representing
a 20.5% increase in total deposits from December 31, 1997.
Borrowed funds totaled $39.0 million compared to $46.3 million
at December 31, 1997. The majority of the decrease was a
decrease in borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank,
partially offset by an increase in securities sold under
agreements to repurchase. Total deposits increased primarily
as a result of the acquisition of Haymarket.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
NET INTEREST INCOME
For the three month period ended June 30, 1998 net interest
income totaled $7.1 million, an increase of 11.2% from the
comparable period in 1997. For the six month period ended June
30, 1998 net interest income
14 of 16
<PAGE> 15
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operation (con't.)
totaled $13.9 million, an increase of 12.2% from the
comparable period in 1997. Interest income was affected
positively by improvements in the interest earned in most
categories of earning assets. This, in addition to a higher
level of non-interest bearing transaction accounts, on
average, and a continued low level of market deposit rates,
compared to historical levels, has combined to improve the
performance of the Company's balance sheet. The net yield on
average earning assets on a fully taxable equivalent basis
decreased to 4.82% in the first half of 1998 from 4.98% during
the same period in 1997.
PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES
Loan loss provision for the six months ended June 30, 1998 was
$350 thousand compared with $390 thousand for the same period
in 1997. Loan loss provision decreased because of continued
improvement in the Company's loan portfolio. The lower
provision reflects the Company's recent charge-off and
recovery experience as well as the overall continued
improvement in the measured quality of the loan portfolio.
Despite the decrease in provision for loan losses and an
increase in total loans outstanding from June 30, 1997 to June
30, 1998, the Company's loan loss allowance as a percentage of
total loans outstanding has increased from 1.42% to 1.53%,
respectively.
NON-INTEREST INCOME AND EXPENSE
Other operating income for the quarter ended June 30, 1998 was
$1.4 million, compared to $1.3 million for the second quarter
of 1997. Service charges on deposit accounts, gains on sales
of loans, other income, and brokerage commissions showed
modest increases. Lockbox fees increased 14.0% due to an
increase in lockbox volume relating to new customers.
During the second quarter 1998, operating expenses increased
by $452 thousand or 9.7% from the same quarter last year.
Approximately half of the increase was in salaries and
employee benefits with the remaining half in all other
expenses. The Company has incurred expenses relating to
increased professional fees for certain strategic initiatives.
INCOME TAXES
For the second quarter of 1998, the Company's income taxes
totaled $1,133 thousand on pretax income of $3,118 thousand
for an effective tax rate of 36.3%. For last year's
corresponding quarter, the Company's income taxes totaled
$1,133 thousand on pretax income of $2,797 thousand for an
effective rate of 40.5%. The Company has begun to realize
savings in this area as the result of strategic tax savings
initiatives.
