NOTE 7- INCOME TAXES:
The Company files a consolidated federal income tax return. The provision for
income taxes is based on income as recorded in the consolidated financial
statements. This provision differs from amounts currently payable because of
temporary differences in the recognition of certain income and expense items for
financial and tax purposes. The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance
with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109 "Accounting for
Income Taxes". SFAS 109 requires that a deferred tax liability or asset be
adjusted for the effect of changes in tax laws or rates in the period of
enactment.
NOTE 8 - EARNINGS PER SHARE:
Earnings per share is determined by dividing income for the period by the
weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares. Stock options
are regarded as common stock equivalents, whereas ESOP shares not committed to
be released are not considered outstanding for purposes of calculating earnings
per share. The weighted average number of shares used in the computation of
earnings per share was 252,501 and 256,697 for the nine month period ended
September 30, 1996 and September 30, 1995, respectively and 242,498 and 253,948
for the three month period ended September 30, 1996 and September 30, 1995,
respectively. There is no material difference between primary and fully diluted
earnings per share.
NOTE 9 - RECENT REGULATORY DEVELOPMENTS
On September 30, 1996, the Deposit Insurance Funds Act of 1996 (the Act) was
signed into law. The Act authorizes the FDIC to impose a one-time special
assessment on SAIF-assessable deposits of depository institutions. The special
assessment, which is based on SAIF-assessable deposits at March 31, 1995, is
intended to recapitalize the SAIF. The one-time special assessment for the
Company totaled $274,921 and was accrued on September 30, 1996.
ALBION BANC CORP.
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
SEPTEMBER 30, 1996
Financial Condition
Total assets of Albion Banc Corp. (the "Company") were $59.9 million as of
September 30, 1996, an increase of $2.8 million or 4.9% over total assets as of
December 31, 1995. Deposits, the Company's primary source of funds, increased
$.5 million or 1.2% to $47.1 million at September 30, 1996. Borrowings from the
Federal Home Loan Bank of New York were $6.0 million at September 30, 1996,an
increase of $3.0 million from the $3.0 million at December 31, 1995.
Investment securities available for sale, primarily mortgage-backed securities,
decreased from $4.1 million at December 31, 1995 to $3.9 million at September
30, 1996. This decrease can be attributed to normal principal paydowns of
mortgage-backed securities. Proceeds from principal paydowns were reinvested
primarily in real estate loans.
Investment securities held to maturity, primarily U.S. Treasury Securities,
Corporate Bonds and Municipal obligations, decreased from $3.3 million at
December 31, 1995 to $2.7 million at September 30, 1996. This decrease can be
attributed to normal maturities in the portfolio. Proceeds from the maturities
were reinvested primarily in real estate loans.
Total loans outstanding as of September 30, 1996 were $47.3 million, an increase
of $3.0 million over total loans at December 31, 1995. The majority of this
increase occurred in real estate loans secured by one-to-four family property,
which increased by $2.6 million over the respective balance at December 31,
1995. Real estate loans secured by other properties, including construction
loans as of September 30, 1996, increased by $.4 million during the period.
Consumer loans, primarily home equity and personal loans increased $196,152
during this period.
The Company's shareholders' equity decreased $322,416 or 5.3%, from $6,089,120
at December 31, 1995 to $5,766,704 at September 30, 1996. This decrease is due
primarily to the Company's repurchase of 13,035 common stock shares which
reduced shareholders' equity by $221,595 and the net loss during the period of
$75,738. The Company's equity as a percentage of total assets at September 30,
1996 was 9.6% and exceeds all regulatory requirements.
Liquidity measures the ability of the Company to meet its maturing obligations
and existing commitments, to withstand fluctuations in deposit levels, to fund
its operations and to provide for customers credit needs. The Company's
principal sources of funds are customer deposits, advances from the Federal Home
Loan Bank of New York and principal and interest payments on loans, mortgage-
backed securities and investments. Under current federal regulations, Albion
Federal is required to maintain specified liquid assets in an amount equal to at
least 5% of its net withdrawable liabilities plus short-term borrowings. The
Company has generally maintained liquidity levels well above those required by
regulation. At September 30, 1996, Albion Federal's liquidity ratio was 13.0%,
exceeding the minimum required. Federal Funds sold at September 30, 1996
amounted to $3,000,000. These funds are available immediately to meet upcoming
obligations. The Company has not sold any investments prior to maturity and has
not transferred any securities between its available for sale and held to
maturity categories.
Comparison of Operating Results for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 1996 and
1995
Net Income. Net income (loss) of $(75,738) for the nine months ended September
30, 1996 represents a decrease of $241,252 or 145.8% from the $165,514 earned in
the comparable period ended September 30, 1995. This decline was primarily the
result of the one-time special assessment imposed by the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation (FDIC) on SAIF-assessable deposits and additional loan
loss provisions/real estate owned (REO) reserves. The special assessment of the
Company totaled $274,921 and was accrued during the quarter ended September 30,
1996. The additional provision for loan losses/REO reserves which totaled
$135,764 was the result of growth in the loan portfolio and the inherent risk
associated with such growth and three nonperforming participation mortgage loan
pools and two real estate foreclosures.
Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased to $1,531,008 for the nine
months ended September 30, 1996, up 5.8% or $83,499 from $1,447,509 earned
during the nine month period ended September 30, 1995. This increase is due
primarily to an increase in interest and fees on loans of $121,834 which was
offset however, by a decrease in interest and dividends on investment securities
of $144,641. Also, interest on deposits increased $137,936, however interest on
borrowed funds decreased $244,242. Total interest income decreased 0.7% or
$22,807 during the period while total interest expense decreased 5.7% or
$106,306.
Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for possible loan losses, the charge
to earnings for potential credit losses associated with lending activities, was
$94,764 for the nine months ended September 30, 1996, an increase of 251.0% or
$67,764 for the comparable period in 1995. Management charges earnings for an
amount necessary to maintain the allowance for possible loan losses at a level
considered adequate to absorb potential losses in the loan portfolio. The level
of the allowance is based on management's evaluation of individual loans, past
loan loss experience, the assessment of prevailing conditions and anticipated
economic conditions and other relevant factors. The allowance for possible loan
losses of the Association at September 30, 1996 was $309,224 or .65% of total
loans, compared to $244,100, or .55% of total loans at December 31, 1995. The
increase in the provision during the first nine months was due primarily to
management's quarterly analysis of the Association's loan portfolio, principally
driven by deterioration in the credit quality of three participation mortgage
loan pools.
Noninterest Income. Noninterest income for the nine month period ended
September 30, 1996 was $200,053 compared with $171,976 during the same period in
the prior year. This increase was attributable to increased fee income from
depository transaction accounts and fee income from New Frontier of Albion
Corp. Also , the sale of real estate owned resulted in a net gain of $32,100.
Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense for the nine month period ended
September 30, 1996, was $1,775,235, an increase of 32.1% over the $1,344,171
recorded for the same period in the prior year. This increase in noninterest
expense resulted primarily from the one-time special assessment imposed by the
FDIC on SAIF-assessable deposits. The special assessment for the Association
totaled $274,921 and was accrued at September 30, 1996. The remainder of the
increase in noninterest expense is a result of increases in the following:
salaries and employee benefits expense of $72,083 or 11.8%; occupancy expenses
of $48,623 or 27.6%; deposit insurance premiums of $19,781 or 27.5%; data
processing fees of $47,280 or 44.1% and other noninterest expense of $28,777 or
13.0%. These increases are primarily the result of general increases in overall
business volume and operations and expenses associated with the operation of the
new branch facility in Clarkson, New York.
Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended September 30, 1996
and 1995
Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased to $534,161 for the three
months ended September 30, 1996, up 15.6% from $461,959 earned during the three
month period ended September 30, 1995. This increase is primarily due to
increased interest income and fees on loans and decreased interest expense on
deposits and borrowed funds. Total interest income decreased 1.5% or $16,833
during the period while total interest expense decreased 13.3% or $89,035.
Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for possible loan losses, the charge
to earnings for potential credit losses associated with lending activities, was
$76,764 for the three months ended September 30, 1996, an increase of 752.9% or
$67,764 over the $9,000 in the comparable period in 1995. This increase is
primarily the result of management's quarterly review of the loan portfolio,
principally driven by deterioration in the credit quality of three participation
mortgage loan pools.
Noninterest Income. Noninterest income for the three month period ended
September 30, 1996 was $63,487 compared with $55,444 during the same period in
the prior year. This increase was attributable primarily to increased fee
income from depository transaction accounts and fee income from New Frontier of
Albion Corp.
Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense for the three month period ended
September 30, 1996 was $794,974 an increase of 74.0% or $338,142 over the
$456,832 recorded for the same period in the prior year. This increase in
noninterest expense resulted primarily from the one-time special assessment
imposed by the FDIC on SAIF-assessable deposits. The special assessment for the
Association totaled $274,921 and was accrued at September 30, 1996. The
remainder of the increase in noninterest expense is a result of increases in the
following: salaries and employee benefits expense of $12,178 or 5.8%; occupancy
