Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
SUMMARY
- -------
Net income for the second quarter of 1997 was $26.3 million, or $.78 per share,
a 9% increase over the $24.1 million, or $.70 per share, recorded for the second
quarter of last year.
Net interest income for the second quarter of 1997 reached $57.0 million, a 9%
increase over the $52.5 million reported for the second quarter of last year.
The quarterly provision for loan losses of $5.0 million was an increase of $1.5
million, or 43%, over the provision for the second quarter of 1996. The reserve
for loan losses at quarter-end was $58.1 million, up $3.7 million, or 7%, over
the $54.4 million reported at December 31,1996.
Noninterest income for the second quarter of 1997 was $37.8 million, an 11%
increase over the $34.1 million reported for the corresponding period last year.
Operating expenses for the second quarter of 1997 were $50.8 million, a 7%
increase over the $47.3 million reported for the second quarter of last year.
Return on assets for the six months ended June 30, 1997, on an annualized basis,
was 1.88%, up over the 1.80% reported for the corresponding period a year ago.
Return on stockholders' equity, also on an annualized basis, was 22.13%, up over
the 20.85% reported for the first six months of 1996.
STATEMENT OF CONDITION
- ----------------------
Total assets at June 30, 1997 were $5.81 billion, up $245.5 million, or 4%, over
the $5.56 billion reported at December 31, 1996. Total earning assets increased
$268.2 million, or 5%, to $5.44 billion over the same period of time.
Contributing to these increases were the loan portfolio, which increased $204.7
million, or 5%, and the investment portfolio, which increased $86.6 million, or
7%.
Total loans at June 30, 1997 were $3.98 billion, an increase of $204.7 million,
or 5%, over the December 31, 1996 level of $3.77 billion. Contributing to this
increase were: commercial mortgage loans of $929.7 million, which increased
$66.7 million, or 8%, over their December 31, 1996 level; residential mortgage
loans of $780.9 million, which increased $102.1 million, or 15%, over their
prior year-end level, due primarily to the purchase of $67.3 million of such
loans during the second quarter; and consumer loans of $906.0 million, which
increased $24.0 million, or 3%, over their prior year-end level.
The investment portfolio at June 30, 1997 was $1.35 billion, an increase of
$86.6 million, or 7%, over the December 31, 1996 level of $1.27 billion.
Contributing to this increase were: U.S. Treasury and government agency
securities, which increased $56 million, or 7%, to $869.2 million; and other
securities, which increased $32.7 million, or 8%, to $453.0 million, due to the
acquisition of additional asset-backed securities and money market preferred
stocks.
Interest-bearing liabilities at quarter-end were $4.41 billion, up $257.9
million, or 6%, over the year-end level of $4.15 billion. Total deposits
increased $58.3 million, or 1%, while short-term borrowings increased $178.7
million, or 17%. An $88.7 million, or 23%, increase in certificates of deposit
of $100,000 and over was primarily responsible for this increase, as the
Corporation moved into the national market in an effort to diversify its sources
of funds. Offsetting this growth, in part, was a $36.7 million, or 3%, decline
in certificates of deposit under $100,000. Approximately $21.4 million, or 58%,
of this decrease occurred in the Corporation's Pennsylvania markets, where rates
are more competitive. Short-term borrowings rose to $1.22 billion at
10
<PAGE>
quarter-end, an increase of $178.7 million, or 17%, over the 1996 year-end
level. A $137.2 million, or 14%, increase in Federal funds purchased was
primarily responsible for this increase, as asset growth continued to outpace
deposit growth for the first six months of 1997.
Stockholders' equity at June 30, 1997 was $482.8 million, up $18.1 million, or
4%, over the year-end level as first half earnings of $51.2 million and $5.9
million in stock issued were offset, in part, by $23.3 million in cash dividends
and $17.2 million used for the Corporation's stock buyback program.
NET INTEREST INCOME
- -------------------
Net interest income for the second quarter of 1997 on a fully tax-equivalent
("FTE") basis was $59.4 million. This was a $4.3 million, or 8%, increase over
the $55.1 million reported for the second quarter of 1996. For the first six
months of 1997, net interest income (FTE) was $117.4 million, up $8.4 million,
or 8%, over the $109.0 million reported for the first six months of 1996.
Interest income (FTE) for the second quarter of 1997 increased $6.8 million, or
7%, to $108.5 million from $101.8 million for the second quarter of 1996.
Contributing to this increase was a $301.8 million increase in the average level
of earning assets compared to the corresponding period last year. Interest
revenues increased $6.2 million as a result of this increase in earning assets.
Complementing this $6.2 million increase was a $600,000 increase in interest
revenues associated with higher interest rates the Corporation earned on its
assets. The average prime lending rate the for the second quarter of 1997 was
8.50%, 25 basis points higher than the 8.25% for the second quarter of 1996. For
the first six months of 1997, the average level of earning assets was $231.5
million higher than a year ago, contributing $9.6 million in increased interest
revenues.
Interest expense for the second quarter of 1997 increased $2.4 million, or 5%,
to $49.1 million from the $46.7 million reported for the second quarter of last
year. Contributing to this increase in interest expense was a $250.0 million
increase in average interest-bearing liabilities, which resulted in a $2.8
million increase in interest expense. Partially offsetting this $2.8 million
increase was a $400,000 decrease in interest expense associated with a five
basis point decrease in the rate paid for those funds. The average rate the
Corporation paid for its funds during the second quarter of 1997 was 3.74%,
compared to 3.78% for the second quarter of 1996. For the first six months of
1997, average interest-bearing liabilities were $182.4 million higher than those
for the corresponding period of 1996, resulting in increased interest expense of
$4.2 million. This increase was partially offset by a $3.3 million decrease in
interest expense associated with lower interest rates the Corporation paid on
its liabilities. For the first six months of 1997, the average rate the
Corporation paid for its funds was 3.70%, compared to 3.83% for the first half
of 1996.
The Corporation's net interest margin for the second quarter of 1997 was 4.49%,
up eight basis points over the 4.41% reported for the second quarter a year ago.
For the first six months of 1997, the margin was 4.53%, up 14 basis points over
the 4.39% reported for the first half of 1996. The following three tables
present comparative net interest income data and a rate-volume analysis of
changes in net interest income for the second quarters and first six months of
1997 and 1996, respectively.

Noninterest Revenues and Operating Expenses
- -------------------------------------------
Noninterest revenues for the second quarter of 1997 increased $3.7 million, or
11%, to $37.8 million. For the first six months of 1997, noninterest revenues
increased $6.9 million, or 10%, to $73.4 million.
Increased trust and asset management fees were responsible for the majority of
both the quarterly and year-to-date increases. Personal trust fees for the
second quarter of 1997 increased $1.8 million, or 15%, to $13.7 million, due
primarily to increased principal commissions and estate settlement fees. For the
first six months of 1997, personal trust fees increased $3.3 million, or 15%, to
$26.3 million. Corporate trust fees for the second quarter of 1997 increased
$1.2 million, or 18%, to $7.9 million, due primarily to increased employment
benefit administration, equipment leasing and corporate/agency income fees. For
the first six months of 1997, corporate trust fees increased $2.0 million, or
15%, to $15.3 million. For the second quarter of 1997, asset management fees
increased $400,000, or 8%, to $6.3 million, due primarily to higher mutual fund
administration fees. For the first six months of 1997, asset management fees
increased $1.0 million, or 9%, to $12.2 million, due primarily to higher equity
management, mutual fund administration and discount brokerage fees.
Service charges on deposit accounts for the second quarter of 1997 increased
$700,000, or 15%, above those for the second quarter of 1996, to $5.3 million.
For the first six months of 1997, service charges increased $700,000, or 7%,
above those for the first six months of 1997, to $10.0 million. Increased
transaction fees associated with automated teller machine usage, overdrafts and
returned items contributed to this increase.
Operating expenses for the second quarter of 1997 increased $3.5 million, or 7%,
to $50.8 million. For the first six months of 1997, operating expenses were up
$7.1 million, or 8%, to $100.5 million. Personnel expenses increased $3.1
million, or 10%, to $32.5 million for the quarter, and $5.4 million, or 9%, to
$64 million for the first six months of 1997. Contributing to these increases
were higher base compensation, sales incentives and bonuses. Higher health care
costs also contributed to these increases, rising $800,000, or 30%, for the
quarter and $1.1 million, or 21%, for the first six months of 1997, primarily
due to increased insurance premiums. Other operating expenses increased
$700,000, or 7%, for the quarter, to $10.5 million, and $1.6 million, or 8%, for
the first six months of 1997, to $20.7 million, due, in part, to increased
advertising, consulting, credit card and travel expenses.
Interest Rate Sensitivity
- -------------------------
The Corporation's interest rate sensitivity, as measured by gap analysis, was
relatively unchanged since the end of the last quarter. At June 30, 1997, the
Corporation's one-year cumulative gap, as a percentage of rate-sensitive assets,
was a negative 26.0%.
Gap analysis, used to measure the difference between volumes of interest
rate-sensitive assets and liabilities, examines the Corporation's balance sheet
at one point in time, but does not capture any balance sheet dynamics that may
be present. Because of these inherent limitations, gap reports cannot predict
accurately the change in net interest income that may occur given a particular
change in interest rates. The Corporation employs simulation models to measure
dynamic changes in interest rate-sensitive assets and liabilities caused by
variations in interest rates. The Corporation also enters into interest rate
swaps ("swaps") and interest rate floor agreements ("floors") as hedges against
fluctuations in the interest rates of identifiable asset categories. The swaps
represent an exchange of interest payments computed on notional amounts. The
Corporation receives fixed-rate interest payments in return for floating-rate
payments on the swaps. At June 30, 1997, the swap portfolio totaled $325 million
and had final maturities of between 1 and 34 months, with a weighted average
18
<PAGE>
maturity of 16 months. The floors generate interest payments based on notional
amounts when the floating-rate index falls below the fixed-rate strike price.
When that index is equal to or above the strike price, no payments are received.
A single upfront payment was made to purchase each of the floors. These payments
are amortized over each floor's original life.
At June 30, 1997, the floor portfolio totaled $325 million and had final
maturities of between 25 and 60 months, with a weighted average maturity of 36
months. The net interest differential which the Corporation currently receives
on these swaps and floors is reported under the caption "Interest and fees on
loans" in the Corporation's Consolidated Statements of Income, and is recognized
over the lives of the respective agreements.
Liquidity
- ---------
A financial institution's liquidity represents its ability to meet, in a timely
manner, cash flow requirements that may arise. Liquidity of the asset side of
the balance sheet is provided by the maturity and marketability of loans, money
market assets and investments. Liquidity of the liability side of the balance
sheet is usually provided through a stable base of core deposits.
The Corporation's quarter-end liquidity ratio, calculated in accordance with
regulatory requirements of the FDIC, was 23.73%. Management believes that
maturities of the Corporation's investment securities, other readily marketable
assets and external sources of funds offer more than adequate liquidity to meet
any cash flow requirements that may arise. Sources of funds have historically
consisted of deposits, amortization and prepayments of outstanding loans,
maturities of investment securities, borrowings and interest income. Management
monitors the Corporation's existing and projected liquidity requirements on an
ongoing basis and implements appropriate strategies when deemed necessary.
Asset Quality and Loan Loss Provision
- -------------------------------------
The Corporation's provision for loan losses for the second quarter of 1997 was
$5.0 million, an increase of $1.5 million, or 43%, over the $3.5 million
provision for the second quarter of 1996. For the first six months of 1997, the
provision was $9.5 million, an increase of $2.5 million, or 36%, over the $7.0
million provision for the first half of 1996. The reserve for loan losses at
June 30, 1997 was $58.1 million, an increase of $3.7 million, or 7%, over the
$54.4 million reported at December 31, 1996. The reserve as a percentage of
total period-end loans outstanding at that date was 1.46%, up slightly over the
year-end level of 1.44%. Net chargeoffs for the second quarter of 1997 were $2.3
million, down $300,000, or 13%, from those for the second quarter of 1996. Net
chargeoffs for the first half of 1997 were $5.8 million, up $300,000, or 6%,
over those for the first half of 1996.
The following table presents the risk elements in the Corporation's loan
portfolio:

<PAGE>
Nonaccruing loans at June 30, 1997 were $38.2 million, a decrease of $2.5
million from the $40.7 million reported at December 31, 1996. Other real estate
owned, which is reported as a component of other assets in the Consolidated
Statements of Condition, consists of assets that have been acquired through
foreclosure. These assets are recorded on the books of the Corporation at the
lower of their cost or the estimated fair value less cost to sell, adjusted
periodically based upon current appraisals. Nonperforming assets (other real
estate owned plus nonaccrual loans) at June 30, 1997 totaled $41.5 million, or
1.04% of period-end loans outstanding. This was a decrease of $4.4 million, or
10%, from the $45.9 million, or 1.22% of period-end loans outstanding, reported
at December 31, 1996. As a result of the Corporation's ongoing monitoring of its
loan portfolio, at June 30, 1997, approximately $12.4 million of its loans were
identified which are either currently performing in accordance with their terms
or are less than 90 days past due but for which, in management's opinion,
serious doubt exists as to the borrowers' ability to continue to repay their
loans in full on a timely basis.
The reserve for loan losses at quarter-end was 1.52 times the level of
nonaccrual loans. Management believes the reserve is adequate, based upon
currently available information. The Corporation's determination of the adequacy
of its reserve is based upon an evaluation of its classified loans and other
assets, past loss experience, current economic and real estate market conditions
and any regulatory recommendations.
Capital Resources
- -----------------
A strong capital position provides a margin of safety for both depositors and
stockholders, enables a financial institution to take advantage of profitable
opportunities and provides for future growth. The Corporation's total risk-based
capital ratio at the end of the second quarter of 1997 was 12.09%, and its core
(Tier 1) leveraged capital ratio was 8.61%. The corresponding ratios at year-end
1996 were 12.01% and 8.59%, respectively. Both of these ratios are well in
excess of the current regulatory minimums of 8.00% and 4.00%, respectively.
Reflecting the Corporation's performance and favorable outlook, the Board of
Directors, at its April meeting, increased the quarterly dividend by 9% to 36
cents per share. This raises the per-share annual dividend rate to $1.44 and
marks the sixteenth consecutive year in which dividends have been increased.
Management monitors the Corporation's capital position and will make adjustments
as needed to insure that the capital base will satisfy existing and impending
regulatory requirements, as well as meet appropriate standards of safety and
provide for future growth.
Other Information
- ------------------
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement No. 128, "Earnings Per Share," which is required to be adopted on
December 31, 1997. After that, the Corporation will be required to change the
method currently used to compute earnings per share and to restate all prior
periods. The Statement will require the Corporation for the first time to report
both basic and fully diluted earnings per share. Under the new requirements,
basic earnings per share will exclude the dilutive effect of stock options,
while fully diluted earnings per share must include the dilutive effect of stock
options, even if that effect is immaterial. The impact of Statement 128 on the
calculation of earnings per share for the quarters ended June 30, 1997 and June
30, 1996 is not expected to be material.
In February 1997, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 129, "Disclosure of Information about Capital Structure." Statement 129
20
<PAGE>
consolidates existing guidance and requires entities (public and non-public) to
disclose certain information about the entity's capital structure. This
Statement is effective for financial statements for periods ending after
December 15, 1997. It contains no change in disclosure requirements for entities
such as the Corporation that were previously subject to the requirements of
Opinions 10 - "Omnibus Opinion - 1966" and 15 - "Earnings Per Share" and
Statement 47 - "Disclosure of Long-Term Obligations." Accordingly, this
Statement will impose no new reporting requirements on the Corporation.
