ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
Easton Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated in Maryland on
July 19, 1991, primarily to own and control all of the capital stock of Easton
Bank & Trust Company (the "Bank") upon its formation. The Bank commenced
business on July 1, 1993, and the only activity of the Company since then has
been the ownership and operation of the Bank. The Bank conducts a general
commercial banking business in its service area, emphasizing the banking needs
of individuals and small- to medium-sized businesses and professional concerns.
The following discussion of the financial condition and results of
operations of the Company should be read in conjunction with the Company's
financial statements and related notes and other statistical information
included elsewhere herein.
Results of Operations
Net income for the Company for the three months ended March 31, 1996,
was $24,677, compared to a loss of $79,157 during the corresponding period of
1995. This increase in earnings can be attributed primarily to the increase in
net interest income, the reduction in the provision for loan losses, and the
reduction in other operating expenses. The increase in net interest income is
primarily the result of the increase in the Bank's loan portfolio from
$20,635,597 at March 31, 1995, to $23,566,699 at March 31, 1996.
The Bank's provision for loan losses was $3,799 for the quarter ended
March 31, 1996, compared to $27,654 for the quarter ended March 31, 1995. The
allowance for loan losses was $263,000 at March 31, 1996, or 1.10% of total
loans, compared to $260,000 at December 31, 1995, or 1.06% of total loans. The
level of the allowance for loan losses represents management's current estimate
of future losses in the loan portfolio; however, there can be no assurance that
loan losses in future periods will not exceed the allowance for loan losses or
that additional increases in the allowance will not be required.
Noninterest expense decreased $35,237, or 11.2%, to $279,540 for the
quarter ended March 31, 1996, from $314,777 for the quarter ended March 31,
1995. The decrease was primarily related to the decrease in other operating
expenses of $37,986. This decrease in other operating expenses was primarily
due to a $10,124 decline in the premium rate paid by the Bank to the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC") for deposit insurance. In mid-1995,
the FDIC reduced the deposit insurance rates for most banks to zero as a result
of the Bank Insurance Fund reaching its legally mandated reserve ratio. The
FDIC can raise the deposit insurance rates at any time. Any increase in the
deposit insurance rates for the Bank will increase the Bank's cost of funds,
and there can be no assurance that such cost could be passed on to the Bank's
customers. Advertising and legal expenses also declined, dropping $11,239 and
$10,832, respectively.
Return on average assets and average equity, on an annualized basis,
for the quarter ended March 31, 1996, were .31% and 2.81%, respectively,
compared to (1.21)% and (7.41)%, respectively, for the same quarter of 1995.
Earnings per share on a fully diluted basis for the quarters ended March 31,
1996, and March 31, 1995, amounted to $0.04 and $(0.14), respectively.
The Company's assets ended the first quarter of 1996 at $36.0 million,
an increase of 10.8% from $32.2 million at December 31, 1995. This increase
can be attributed primarily to the increase in the Bank's deposits which
resulted in the $4.7 million increase in federal funds sold, offset by the
$671,076 decrease in loans. Total deposits ended the quarter at $32.1 million,
up 11.9% from $28.2
5
<PAGE> 7
million at December 31, 1995. At March 31, 1996, the Company's loan to deposit
ratio was 74.3%, compared to 86.8% at December 31, 1995.
The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
115 ("SFAS 115") issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board which
provides for the classification of investment securities into the following
three categories: trading, available-for-sale and held-to-maturity.
Securities that an enterprise has the intent and ability to hold until maturity
are classified as held-to-maturity and reported at amortized cost. Trading
securities and available-for-sale securities are reported at market value with
unrealized gains and losses on trading securities reported in income and
unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities reported as a net
amount in a separate component of shareholders' equity until realized. At
March 31, 1996, the Company held $500,000 in securities classified
held-to-maturity and no securities classified trading or available-for-sale.
Management expects that its 1996 income will exceed expenses. The net
income of $24,677 for the quarter ended March 31, 1996, is the largest profit
shown for any quarter since the Bank opened in July 1993. The growth of loans
and deposits and the associated increase in net interest income are the primary
reasons for the increased income. Although management expects that the
Company's current profitably will continue, future events, such as an
unanticipated deterioration in the loan portfolio, could reverse this trend.
Management's expectations are based on management's best judgement and actual
results will depend on a number of factors that cannot be predicted with
certainty and thus fulfillment of management's expectations cannot be assured.
Liquidity and Sources of Capital
The $3.8 million increase in deposits from December 31, 1995, to March
31, 1996, is primarily reflected in the $4.7 million increase in federal funds
sold, offset by the $671,076 decrease in loans. The Company's primary source
of liquidity is cash on hand plus short-term investments. At March 31, 1996,
the Company's liquid assets totaled $10,477,550, or 29.1% of total assets,
compared to $5,991,301, or 18.6% of total assets, at December 31, 1995. The
Company has a $1,000,000 line of credit, secured by investment securities of
the Bank, from a correspondent bank for future liquidity. If additional
liquidity is needed, the Bank will sell participations in its loans.
The capital of the Company and the Bank exceeded all prescribed
regulatory capital guidelines at March 31, 1996. At March 31, 1996, the Tier 1
leverage ratio for the Bank was 10.01%. At March 31, 1996, the Bank had a
risk- weighted total capital ratio of 15.89%, and a Tier 1 risk-weighted
capital ratio of 14.64%. The Company expects that its current capital and
short-term investments will satisfy the Company's cash requirements for the
foreseeable future. However, no assurance can be given in this regard as rapid
growth, deterioration in the loan quality or poor earnings, or a combination of
these factors, could change the Company's capital position in a relatively
short period of time.
