PART I -- FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 1. Financial Statements.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation.
PART II -- OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
The Registrant is not involved in any pending legal proceedings
involving amounts in the aggregate which management believes are material to the
financial condition and results of operations of the Registrant. On October 16,
1996, the Bank was informed that it will be named as a party to a lawsuit in the
near future involving a commercial loan that first appeared on the Watch List on
September 30, 1996. The lawsuit will start replevin proceedings against the
Bank's borrower and will involve several parties claiming interests in
collateral secured by the Bank's General Business Security Agreement. The Bank's
legal counsel believes the Bank should have sufficient legal grounds to expect
recovery from the Bank's collateral, personal guarantees, and the other parties
involved. The Board of Directors at its meeting October 8, 1996, decided to
establish an increased quarterly loss allowance until more information is
available to make a reasonable estimate of any losses that may occur. At this
writing, the summons and complaint has not been served and information such as
appraisals, personal financial statements, etc. is being assembled. Management
believes potential losses could be material to the financial condition and
results of operations of the Bank. In order to establish an order of magnitude
of the loss potential, a worst case scenario of no recovery on a loan of
$525,000 plus an overdraft of $83,000 less the current excess in the loan loss
reserve of $259,000, would produce an after-tax loss of approximately $209,000.
This amount would be approximately equal to the earnings for one quarter of the
current fiscal year.
Item 2. Changes in Securities. None
Item 3. Defaults upon Senior Securities. None
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
The Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Company was held on August 13,
1996. There were 945,392 shares of common stock of the Company entitled to vote

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OF
NORTHWEST EQUITY CORP.
Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended September 30, 1995
and September 30, 1996
Net Income
Net income for the three months ended September 30, 1996, decreased $217,000 or
94.8% to $12,000 compared to $229,000 for the three months ended September 30,
1995. The decrease in net income was primarily due to a one time $350,000
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) Special Assessment for the three
months ended September 30, 1996. The charge stems from recent legislation that
recapitalizes the FDIC fund insuring deposits in savings institutions. In
exchange for this one-time assessment, the future premiums paid to the Savings
Association Fund (SAIF) will be reduced by about 70 percent, to 6.4 cents from
23 cents per $100 of deposits. The charge will be more than offset by the
reduction in future premiums (See Current Developments Section). Salaries and
employee benefits increased $91,000 from $225,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 1995, to $316,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1996.
The increase reflects $70,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1996, in
expense from accounting for the Company's stock incentive plan that requires
under applicable accounting standards that 61.1% of the three-year cost be
amortized in the first year. The accounting for this expense did not begin until
the approval of the Company's stock incentive plan in October 1995; and
therefore no expense was taken for the three months ended September 30, 1995.
This increase in expense was partially offset by an increase of $77,000 in net
interest income from $781,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1995, to
$858,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1996, and an increase of
$4,000 in total other income from $137,000 for the three months ended September
30, 1995, to $141,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1996
Net Interest Income
Net interest income increased by $77,000 from $781,000 for the three months
ended September 30, 1995, to $858,000 for the three months ended September 30,
1996. Interest income increased $272,000 to $1.9 million for the three months
ended September 30, 1996, compared to $1.6 million for the three months ended
September 30, 1995, while interest expense increased only $195,000 to $1.0
million for the three months ended September 30, 1996, from $815,000 for the
three months ended September 30, 1995
Interest Income
Interest income increased $272,000 or 17.0% to $1.9 million for the three months
ended September 30, 1996, compared to $1.6 million for the three months ended
September 30, 1995. Of the increase, $200,000 was due to an increase in interest
and fees on loans to to $1.7 million for the three months ended September 30,
1996, compared to $1.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 1995.
This increase was due to the increase in the average outstanding balance of
total loans to $75.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 1996,
compared to $64.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 1995. The
increase in total loans reflects the general increase in mortgage interest rates
over the comparable periods that encouraged the bank's customers to seek
adjustable rate loans that are held in house as opposed to fixed-rate loans that
are sold on the secondary market. The remaining increase was due to a $71,000
increase in interest on mortgage-backed and related securities to $142,000 for
the three months ended September 30, 1996, from $71,000 for the three months
ended September 30, 1995. This increase was due to an increase in the average
outstanding balance of mortgage backed and related securities from $4.5 million
for the three months ended September 30, 1995, to an average outstanding balance
of $7.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 1996. The increase was
the result of the purchase of $2.8 million
8
<PAGE>
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION (CONT.)
of additional securities to meet increased Wisconsin Department of Financial
Institutions liquidity requirements. Interest on investments increased $1,000 to
$53,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1996, compared to $52,000 for
the three months ended September 30, 1995.
Interest Expense
Interest expense increased $195,000 or 23.9% to $1.0 million for the three
months ended September 30, 1996, compared to $815,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 1995. Interest on savings increased $87,000 or 13.5% from $645,000
for the three months ended September 30, 1995, to $732,000 for the three months
ended September 30, 1996. The increase reflects an increase in the average
outstanding balances of total deposits to $60.4 million for the three months
ended September 30, 1996, from an average outstanding balance of $53.4 million
for the three months ended September 30, 1995, and an increase in rates paid.
Interest on borrowings increased $108,000 or 63.5% from $170,000 for the three
months ended September 30, 1995, to $278,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 1996. The increase reflects an increase in the average outstanding
balance of advances and other borrowings from $10.2 million for the three months
ended September 30, 1995, to 19.9 $million for the three months ended September
30, 1996. The increase in advances and other borrowings was used to fund the
increase in assets between the periods.
Provision for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses increased $19,000 to $25,000 for the three months
ended September 30, 1996, compared to $6,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 1995. The increase reflects the Board of Directors' recognition of
a commercial loan that appeared on the September 30, 1996, watch list for the
first time. Unable to make an informed estimate of the loss potential, the Board
decided to establish an increased quarterly loss allowance until more
information is available to make a reasonable estimate of any losses that may
occur (See Part II, Item 1, Legal Proceedings). The allowance for loan losses
totaled $447,000 at September 30, 1996, compared to $443,000 at September 30,
1995, and represented 0.58% and 0.71% of gross loans and 46.0% and 106.30% of
non-performing loans, respectively. When compared to the allowance for loan
losses calculation that is based on a three year actual loss average, the Board
of Directors believes the allowance for loan losses is at an adequate level to
provide for potential loan losses and that future provisions for loan losses
will be at levels necessary to cover only charge-offs and general increases in
gross loans. The non-performing assets to total assets ratio was 1.20% at
September 30, 1996, compared to 1.07% at September 30, 1995.
Other Income
Total other income increased 2.9% or $4,000 to $141,000 for the three months
ended September 30, 1996, compared to $137,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 1995. The increase includes a $5,000 increase in gain on sale of
mortgage loans to $15,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1996,
compared, to $10,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1995. Other income
increased $2,000 from $51,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1995, to
$53,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1996. Service charges on
deposits decreased $5,000 to $54,000 for the three months ended September 30,
1996, compared, to $59,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1995.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses increased $448,000 or 88.5% to $954,000 for
the three months ended September 30, 1996, compared to $506,000 for the three
months ended September 30, 1995. Salaries and employee benefits increased
$91,000 from $225,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1995, to $316,000
for the three months ended September 30, 1996. The increase reflects $70,000 for
the three months ended September 30, 1996, in expense from accounting for the
Company's stock incentive plan that requires under applicable accounting
standards that 61.1% of the three-year cost be amortized in the first year. The
9

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION (CONT.)
accounting for this expense did not begin until the approval of the
Company's stock incentive plan in October 1995; and therefore no expense was
taken for the three months ended September 30, 1995. Net occupancy expense
increased $4,000 from $63,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1995, to
$67,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1996, and reflects the
completion of an addition and remodeling project to the New Richmond office
location. Other expenses increased $6,000 from $152,000 for the three months
ended September 30, 1995, to $158,000 for the three months ended September 30,
1996. Federal insurance premiums increased $352,000 from $31,000 for the three
months ended September 30, 1995, to $383,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 1996. The increase is due to one-time $350,000 Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation (FDIC) Special Assessment for the three months ended
September 30, 1996. The charge stems from recent legislation that recapitalizes
the FDIC fund insuring deposits in savings institutions. In exchange for this
one-time assessment, the future premiums paid to the Savings Association Fund
(SAIF) will be reduced by about 70 percent, to 6.4 cents from 23 cents per $100
of deposits. The charge will be more than offset by the reduction in future
premiums (See Current Developments Section).
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense decreased $169,000 or 95.5% from $177,000 for the three
months ended September 30, 1995, to $8,000 for the three months ended September
30, 1996. The decrease in income tax expense is the direct result of the
decrease in income before taxes of $386,000 from $406,000 for the three months
ended September 30, 1995, to $20,000 for the three months ended September 30,
1996. The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 1996, was
40.0% compared to 43.6% for the three months ended September 30, 1995.
Comparison of Operating Results for the Six Months Ended September 30, 1995 and
September 30, 1996
Net Income
Net income for the six months ended September 30, 1996, decreased $228,000 or
49.2% to $235,000 compared to $463,000 for the six months ended September 30,
1995. The decrease in net income was primarily due to a one time $350,000
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) Special Assessment for the three
months ended September 30, 1996. The charge stems from recent legislation that
recapitalizes the FDIC fund insuring deposits in savings institutions. In
exchange for this one-time assessment, the future premiums paid to the Savings
Association Fund (SAIF) will be reduced by about 70 percent, to 6.4 cents from
23 cents per $100 of deposits. The charge will be more than offset by the
reduction in future premiums (See Current Developments Section). Salaries and
employee benefits increased $167,000 from $456,000 for the six months ended
September 30, 1995, to $623,000 for the six months ended September 30, 1996. The
increase reflects $140,000 for the six months ended September 30, 1996, in
expense from accounting for the Company's stock incentive plan that requires
under applicable accounting standards that 61.1% of the three-year cost be
amortized in the first year. The accounting for this expense did not begin until
the approval of the Company's stock incentive plan in October 1995; and
therefore no expense was taken for the six months ended September 30, 1995. This
increase in expense was partially offset by an increase of $145,000 in net
interest income from $1.5 million for the six months ended September 30, 1995,
to $1.7 million for the six months ended September 30, 1996, and an increase of
$32,000 in total other income from $249,000 for the six months ended September
30, 1995, to $281,000 for the six months ended September 30, 1996

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION (CONT.)
Net Interest Income
Net interest income increased by $145,000 from $1.5 million for the six months
ended September 30, 1995, to $1,7 million for the six months ended September 30,
1996. Interest income increased $605,000 to $3.7 million for the six months
ended September 30, 1996, compared to $3.1 million for the six months ended
September 30, 1995, while interest expense increased only $460,000 to $2.0
million for the six months ended September 30, 1996, from $1.5 million for the
six months ended September 30, 1995. The improvement in net interest income
primarily reflects an increase in the average outstanding balance of
interest-earning assets of $15.7 million from $70.4 million for the six months
ended September 30, 1995, compared to $86.1 million for the six months ended
September 30, 1996.
Interest Income
Interest income increased $605,000 or 19.5% to $3.7 million for the six months
ended September 30, 1996, compared to $3.1 million for the six months ended
September 30, 1995. Of the increase, $445,000 was due to an increase in interest
and fees on loans to $3.3 million for the six months ended September 30, 1996,
compared to $2.8 million for the six months ended September 30, 1995. This
increase was due to the increase in the average outstanding balance of total
loans to $74.1million for the six months ended September 30, 1996, compared to
$62.4 million for the six months ended September 30, 1995. The increase in total
loans reflects the general increase in mortgage interest rates over the
comparable periods that encouraged the bank's customers to seek adjustable rate
loans that are held in house as opposed to fixed-rate loans that are sold on the
secondary market. The remaining increase was primarily due to a $149,000
increase in interest on mortgage-backed and related securities to $282,000 for
the six months ended September 30, 1996, from $133,000 for the six months ended
September 30, 1995. This increase was due to an increase in the average
outstanding balance of mortgage backed and related securities from $4.0 million
for the six months ended September 30, 1995, to an average balance of $7.8
million for the six months ended September 30, 1996. This increase was the
result of the purchase of $2.8 million of additional securities to meet
increased Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions liquidity requirements.
Interest on investments increased $11,000 to $117,000 for the six months ended
September 30, 1996, compared to $106,000 for the six months ended September 30,
1995, as a result of an increase in the average outstanding balances of
interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions, securities held for
sale, and Federal Home Loan Bank stock from $3.9 million for the six months
ended September 30, l995, to $4.2 million for the six months ended September 30,
1996.
Interest Expense
Interest expense increased $460,000 or 30.7% to $2.0 million for the six months
ended September 30, 1996, compared to $1.5 million for the six months ended
September 30, 1995. Interest on savings increased $188,000 or 15.7% from $1.2
million for the six months ended September 30, 1995, to $1.5 million for the six
months ended September 30, 1996. The increase reflects an increase in the
average outstanding balance of total deposits to $61.0 million for the six
months ended September 30, 1996, from an average balance of $52.7 million for
the six months ended September 30, 1995. Interest on borrowings increased
$272,000 or 96.1% from $283,000 for the six months ended September 30, 1995, to
$555,000 for the six months ended September 30, 1996. The increase reflects an
increase in average outstanding balance of advances and other borrowings from
$8.7 million for the six months ended September 30, 1995, to $19.4 million for
the six months ended September 30, 1996. The increase in advances and other
borrowings was used to fund the increase in assets between the periods.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION (CONT.)
Provision for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses increased $19,000 to $31,000 for the six months
ended September 30, 1996, compared to $12,000 for the six months ended September
30, 1995. The increase reflects the Board of Directors' recognition of a
commercial loan that appeared on the September 30, 1996, watch list for the
first time. Unable to make an informed estimate of the loss potential, the Board
decided to establish an increased quarterly loss allowance until more
information is available to make a reasonable estimate of any losses that may
occur (See Part II, Item 1, Legal Proceedings). The allowance for loan losses
totaled $447,000 at September 30, 1996, compared to $443,000 at September 30,
1995, and represented 0.58% and 0.71% of gross loans and 46.0% and 106.30% of
non-performing loans, respectively. When compared to the allowance for loan
losses calculation that is based on a three year actual loss average, the Board
of Directors believes the allowance for loan losses is at an adequate level to
provide for potential loan losses and that future provisions for loan losses
will be at levels necessary to cover only charge-offs and general increases in
gross loans. The non-performing assets to total assets ratio was 1.2% at
September 30, 1996, compared to 1.07% at September 30, 1995.
Other Income
Total other income increased $32,000 or 12.9% to $281,000 for the six months
ended September 30, 1996, compared to $249,000 for the six months ended
September 30, 1995. The increase includes a $12,000 increase in gain on sale of
mortgage loans to $30,000 for the six months ended September 30, 1996 compared,
to $18,000 for the six months ended September 30, 1995. Other income increased
$24,000 from $77,000 for the six months ended September 30, 1995 to $101,000 for
the six months ended September 30, 1996, and reflects real estate lot sales in
the bank's subsidiary of $49,000 for the six months ended September 30, 1996,
compared to $17,000 for the six months ended September 30, 1995.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses increased $545,000 or 54.5% to $1.5 million
for the six months ended September 30, 1996, compared to $1.0 million for the
six months ended September 30, 1995. Salaries and employee benefits increased
$167,000 from $456,000 for the six months ended September 30, 1995, to $623,000
for the six months ended September 30, 1996. The increase reflects $140,000 for
the six months ended September 30, 1996, in expense from accounting for the
Company's stock incentive plan that requires under applicable accounting
standards that 61.1% of the three-year cost be amortized in the first year. The
accounting for this expense did not begin until the approval of the Company's
stock incentive plan in October 1995; and therefore no expense was taken for the
six months ended September 30, 1995. Net occupancy expense increased $11,000
from $123,000 for the six months ended September30, 1995, to $134,000 for the
six months ended September 30, 1996, and reflects the completion of an addition
to and remodeling of the New Richmond office location.. Other expenses increased
$13,000 from $276,000 for the six months ended September 30, 1995, to $289,000
for the six months ended September 30, 1996. Federal insurance premiums
increased $356,000 from $62,000 for the six months ended September 30, 1995, to
$418,000 for the six months ended September 30, 1996. The increase is due to
one-time $350,000 Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) Special
Assessment for the three months ended September 30, 1996. The charge stems from
recent legislation that recapitalizes the FDIC fund insuring deposits in savings
institutions. In exchange for this one-time assessment, the future premiums paid
to the Savings Association Fund (SAIF) will be reduced by about 70 percent, to
6.4 cents from 23 cents per $100 of deposits. The charge will be more than
offset by the reduction in future premiums (See Current Developments Section).

Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense decreased $159,000 or 48.0% from $331,000 for the six months
ended September 30, 1995, to $172,000 for the six months ended September 30,
1996. The decrease in income tax expense is the direct result of a decrease in
income before taxes of $387,000 from $794,000 for the six months ended September
30, 1995, to $407,000 for the six months ended September 30, 1996. The effective
tax rate for the six months ended September 30, 1996, was 42.3% compared to
41.7% for the six months ended September 30, 1995.
Financial Condition
Total assets increased $9.1 million or 10.5% to $95.5 million at September 30,
1996, compared to $86.4 million at March 31, 1996. The increase is a result of a
$6.5 million or 9.3% increase in loans receivable-net to $76.5 million at
September 30, 1996, compared to $70.0 million at March 31, 1996. The increase in
loans receivable-net was the result of the expected seasonal increase of loan
activity during the spring and summer months. Cash increased $147,000 from $3.4
million at March 31, 1995, to $3.6 million at September 30, 1996. Securities
available for sale decreased $105,000 from $2.9 million at March 31, 1996, to
$2.8 million at September 30, 1996, as the result of the reduction in the
balance in money market mutual funds. Mortgage backed and related securities
increased $2.4 million from $5.4 million on March 31, 1996, to $7.8 million at
September 30, 1996, as the net result of the purchase of an $2.8 million of
additional securities The additional securities were purchased to meet an
increase in the liquidity requirement imposed by the Wisconsin Department of
Financial Institutions from 5% to 8% of selected liabilities.
Savings accounts increased $5.2 million from $57.3 million at March 31, 1996, to
$62.5 million at September 30, 1996. The increase in savings accounts was used
to fund the increase in loans receivable. Outstanding advances from the Federal
Home Loan Bank increased $3.6 million from $12.6 million at March 31, 1996, to
$16.2 million at September 30, 1996. Of the increase, $2.8 million in advances
were used to fund the purchase of the additional mortgage backed and related
securities required by the increase in the Wisconsin Department of Financial
Institution's liquidity requirement. The remaining $0.8 million was used to fund
a portion of the increase in loans receivable.
Shareholders Equity decreased $285,000 from $11.9 million at March 31, 1996, to
$11.6 million at September 30, 1996. The decrease is due to the purchase of an
additional $544,000 in treasury stock that changed the treasury stock balance
from ($0.6 million) at March 31, 1996, to ($1.1 million) at September 30, 1996.
This decrease is offset by the amortization of the unearned Employee Stock
Ownership Plan compensation of $69,000 from ($699,000) on March 31, 1996 to
($630,000) on September 30, 1996; the amortization of the unearned restricted
stock plan award of $141,000 from ($319,000) at March 31, 1996, to ($178,000) at
September 30, 1996; an increase in the net unrealized loss on securities held
for sale of $7,000 from ($34,000) at March 31, 1996 to ($27,000) at September
30, 1996; and the increase of $42,000 in retained earnings from $5.86 million at
March 31, 1996, to $5.90 million at September 30, 1996.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION (CONT.)
Current Developments
Deposits of the Bank currently are insured to applicable limits by the
FDIC under the Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF"). The FDIC also
insures commercial bank deposits under the Bank Insurance Fund ("BIF"). Premium
levels were set for each fund to facilitate the fund achieving its designated
reserve ratio. As the funds reach their designated ratios, the FDIC has
authority to lower fund premium assessments to rates sufficient to maintain the
designated reserve ratio. In May 1995, the BIF achieved its designated ratio and
the FDIC lowered BIF premium rates for most BIF-insured institutions. In
November 1995, the FDIC reduced assessment rates by four cents per $100 of
deposits for all institutions, producing a premium rate schedule ranging from 0%
(i.e. whereby such institutions will be subject only to a $2,000 minimum annual
premium) to 0.27% of deposits depending on the institution's risk-based premium
category. Based on these assessment rate modifications, the majority of BIF
members paid only a $2,000 minimum annual premium and, therefore, BIF-insured
institutions paid, on average, 0.43 cents per $100 of deposits. The SAIF had not
achieved its designated reserve ratio and was not anticipated to do so prior to
the year 2001. Therefore, SAIF premium rates for SAIF-insured members continued
to be set at an average of 23.7 cents per $100 of deposits. As a result of the
new assessment rate provisions, SAIF member institutions were placed at a
competitive disadvantage based on higher deposit insurance premium On September
30, 1996, President Clinton signed banking legislation to resolve the deposit
insurance premium disparity. The banking package also included extensive
regulatory relief for banks and thrifts. The BIF-SAIF package contains the
following core elements for resolving the deposit premium disparity:
Special Assessment. A one-time special assessment on SAIF deposits will
be imposed to bring the fund's reserve ration to the statutory 1.25 percent. The
assessment rate will be approximately 65.7 basis points on deposits as of March
31, 1995. The bill clarifies that the special assessment is deductible for tax
purposes in the year paid. The special assessment amounted to $350,000 to the
Bank and is reflected in the current financial data reported as of September 30,
1996.
FICO Sharing. Pro-rata sharing of the Financing Corporation obligation
among BIF-SAIF members will begin by January l, 2000. This obligation was
previously paid by only SAIF members. SAIF members will have paid the full $780
million amount of the FICO obligation for this year. From 1997 through 1999,
partial sharing will occur, with SAIF deposits assessed 6.44 basis points and
BIF deposits 1.29 basis points.
SAIF and BIF Rates. Through December 31, 1998, the assessment rate for
SAIF deposits cannot be lower than the rate for BIF deposits.
Reserve Ration, Rebates The FDIC is prohibited from setting the
semiannual assessment at a rate in excess of what's needed to maintain or meet
the required reserve ratio. Until the funds are merged, the FDIC is permitted to
rebate or credit excess premiums to BIF members only.
Deposit Migration For a three-year period, the banking regulators are
authorized to prevent SAIF-insured institutions from "facilitating or
encouraging" customers to shift their deposits to BIF-insured affiliates for the
purpose of evading the SAIF premium.
Funds Merger. The BIF and SAIF insurance funds will merge to form the
Deposit Insurance Fund on January 1, 1999, if there are no savings associations
(not including state savings banks) in existence on that date. The statute is
silent on when, how or if rechartering will occur.
Timetable. Pro-rata FICO sharing will begin and the ban on deposit
shifting will end on the earlier of January 1, 2000, or when the last savings
association ceases to exist.
Charter Reform. The Treasury Department is directed to report to
Congress by March 31, 1997, with its recommendations on a common charter for
banks and savings institutions.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION (CONT.)
BIF-SAIF RECAPITALIZATION ANALYSIS
Assuming the Bank's deposits to be approximately $60 million:
The added cost in 1996 is
$350,000 special assessment provided for as of September 30, 1996.
less l8,000 in fourth quarter refund in 1996
$332,000 in added premium for 1996
Premium Savings in Future Years
Assume that the present SAIF premium schedule would recapitalize the
SAIF in 2003. At that point the lowest "pure FICO" SAIF premium would drop to
only 16 basis points. Thereafter, the SAIF premium would stay at 16 basis points
until 2017 when the FICO bonds begin to mature, and SAIF premiums can decline to
the same level as BIF premiums. (All this analysis presumes that the current,
essentially zero, loss rate for both BIF and SAIF continues, or alternatively
that BIF and SAIF rates are equal over time.)
This establishes the SAIF rates without the new law.
Under the new law, SAIF premiums will 6.4 basis points for 1997, 1998,
and 1999. Then pro rata FICO sharing begins. The premium is 2.4 basis points
until 2017, when the FICO bonds begin to mature.
For approximately $60 million of deposits, the annual savings from 1997
onwards are:
$100,000 for 6 years = $ 600,000
$ 82,000 for 15 years = $1,230,000
$ 33,000 for 1 year = $ 33,000
$ 9,000 for 1 year = $ 9,000
-------------
Total Savings $1,872,000
Thus, the undiscounted savings are over five times larger than the
up-front cost. The pay-back period is under four years. On a more sophisticated
present value basis, if the recapitalization payment is viewed as an investment
and the return as the lower stream of premium payments, the annual yield or
internal rate of return is almost exactly 25%. (Source: America's Community
Bankers) The present value of the lower stream of premiums using a 10% annual
interest rate assumption would be approximately $792,000 compared to the present
cost of $332,000. This presentation assumes that the SAIF fund would have
remained viable over that 23 year time period and its members would have
accepted the premium disparity and not have developed ways to exit the fund to
avoid payment.
FDI Act
Under the FDI Act, insurance of deposits may be terminated by the FDIC
upon a finding that the institution has engaged in unsafe or unsound practices,
is in an unsafe or unsound condition operations or has violated any applicable
law, regulation, rule, order or condition imposed by the FDIC or the Department
of Financial Institutions. Management of the Bank does not know of any practice,
condition or violation that might lead to the termination of deposit insurance.
On October 5, 1994, the FDIC issued an "Advanced Notice of Proposed
Rulemaking" pursuant to which the FDIC is soliciting comments on whether the
deposit-insurance assessment base currently provided for in the FDIC's
assessment regulations should be redefined. As a result of the recent transition
to a risk-based deposit insurance system, effective January 1, 1994, the
assessment base, which had been determined by statute pursuant to the
FDI Act, is now determined by the FDIC by regulation. At present,
15
<PAGE>
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION (CONT.)
however, the FDIC's assessment base regulations continue to be based on the
statutory provisions under the FDI Act. Under current law, insurance premiums
paid to the FDIC are calculated by multiplying the institution's assessment base
(which equals total domestic deposits, as adjusted for certain elements) by its
assessment rate.
Considering the change to the new deposit insurance system, developments
in the financial services industry, changes in the activities of depository
institutions and other factors, the FDIC seeks comments on whether the
assessment base should be redefined. The FDIC has stated that review of the
definition of "assessment base" does not signal any intent to enhance the total
dollar amount of assessments collected, but that such redefinition may impact
the assessments paid on an institution-by-institution basis. Until final
regulations are adopted affecting the definition of an institution's assessment
base, the Bank cannot predict what impact such regulation may have on Bank
operations.
Asset/Liability Management
Asset/liability management is an ongoing process of matching asset and liability
maturities to reduce interest rate risk. Management attempts to control this
risk through pricing of assets and liabilities and maintaining specific levels
of maturities. In recent periods, management's strategy has been to (1) sell
substantially all new originations of long-term, fixed-rate single family
mortgage loans in the secondary market, (2) invest in various adjustable-rate
and short-term mortgage-backed and related securities, (3) invest in
adjustable-rate, single family mortgage loans, and (4) encourage medium and
longer-term certificates of deposit. The Company's estimated cumulative one-year
gap between assets and liabilities was a negative 9.6% of total assets, at
September 30, 1996. A negative gap occurs when a greater dollar amount of
interest-earning liabilities than interest-bearing assets are repricing or
maturing during a given time period. The Bank's three-year cumulative gap as of
September 30, 1996, was a negative 11.0%. During periods of rising interest
rates, a negative interest rate sensitivity gap will tend to negatively affect
net interest income. During periods of falling interest rates, a negative
interest rate sensitivity gap will tend to postively affect the net interest
income.
Management believes that its asset/liability management strategies have reduced
the potential effects of changes in interest rates on its operations. Increases
in interest rates may increase net interest income because interest-earning
assets will reprice more quickly than interest-bearing liabilities. The
Company's analysis of the maturity and repricing of assets and liabilities
incorporates certain assumptions concerning the amortization and prepayment of
such assets and liabilities.
Management believes that these assumptions approximate actual experience and
considers them reasonable, although the actual amortization and repayment of
assets and liabilities may vary substantially.
Management Strategy
Asset Quality
The Company emphasizes high asset quality in both its investment portfolio and
lending activities. Non-performing assets have ranged between 0.54% and 2.1% of
total assets during the last five fiscal years and were 1.0% of total assets at
September 30, 1996. Cumulative gross charge-offs over the last five fiscal years
of $464,000 were due primarily to commercial loans made in the mid-1980s. As of
September 30, 1996, the Board of Directors increased the quarterly loan loss
provision $19,000 to $25,000 the three months ended September 30, 1996, from
$6,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1996. The increase reflects the Board
of Directors' recognition of a commercial loan that appeared on the September
30, 1996, watch list for the first time. Unable to make an informed estimate of
the loss potential, the Board decided to
16
<PAGE>
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION (CONT.)
establish an increased quarterly loss allowance until more information is
available to make a reasonable estimate of any losses that may occur (See Part
II, Item 1, Legal Proceedings). The Company's allowance for loan losses at
September 30, 1996, totaled $447,000 or 96.3% of cumulative gross charge-offs
during the last five fiscal years. Management currently believes the allowance
for loan losses at September 30, 1996, is at an adequate level and that future
provisions for loan losses will be at levels necessary only to cover charge-offs
and general increases in gross loans.
Total non-performing loans increased from 30 loans totaling $738,000 at
September 30, 1995, to 54 loans totaling $972,000 at September 30, 1996. Total
non-performing assets increased from 32 items totaling $859,000 at September 30,
1995, to 60 items totaling $1,150,00 at September 30, 1996. Total loans
delinquent 31--89 days increased from 64 loans totaling $1.1 million to 81 loans
totaling $1.8 million. The increase in the number of delinquent loans is
concentrated in the consumer loan department. Deliquencies were created by
certain deficiencies in dealer loan policies that subsequently have been
revised.
Management views the increase as a major area of concern warranting increased
scrutiny. However, the latest available peer group comparison of nonperforming
loans and real estate owned as a percentage of total
loans as prepared by America's Community Bankers at December 31, 1995, was 1.60%
of total loans on a nation wide basis and 0.86% on a regional basis.
Nonperforming loans and real estate owned as a percentage of total loans for the
Company was 1.26% at September 30, 1996, compared to 1.11% at September 30,
1995. As a percentage of assets, non-performing assets increased to 1.20% at
September 30, 1996, compared to 1.07% at September 30, 1995.
