SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES This report is filed for Lakeland Financial Corporation (the Company) and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Lake City Bank (the Bank) and Lakeland Capital Trust (Lakeland Trust). All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company, without audit and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The Company believes that the disclosures are adequate and do not make the information presented misleading. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's latest annual report to stockholders and Form 10-K. In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, management must make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported and the disclosures provided. Results for the period ended June 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2000. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments) which are necessary for a fair statement of the results for interim periods are reflected in the quarterly statements. The Company formed Lakeland Trust on July 24, 1997. Lakeland Trust issued $20 million of 9% Cumulative Trust Preferred Securities (Preferred Securities). The Preferred Securities issued by Lakeland Trust are presented as a separate line item as long-term debt in the consolidated balance sheets of the Company. The securities are captioned "Guaranteed Preferred Beneficial Interests in Company's Subordinated Debentures". The Company records distributions payable on the Preferred Securities as interest expense in its consolidated statements of income. LCB Investments Limited was formed on September 30, 1999 and began operation on November 1, 1999. This is a single purpose, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Bank. Its principal office is in Bermuda, and it was formed to manage a portion of the securities portfolio of the Bank. 8
NOTE 2. EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per common share is based upon weighted-average common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per common share shows the dilutive effect of additional common shares issueable. The common shares outstanding for the stockholders' equity section of the consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2000 reflects the acquisition of 24,992 shares of Company common stock to offset a liability for a directors' deferred compensation plan. These shares are treated as outstanding when computing the weighted-average common shares outstanding for the calculation of both basic and diluted earnings per share. A reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic earnings per common share and the diluted earnings per common share for the periods ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 follows. All amounts are in thousands except share data. 9

Stock options for 447,270 and 301,245 shares of common stock were not considered in computing diluted earnings per common share for June 30, 2000 and 1999 because they were antidilutive. 10NOTE 3. STOCK OPTIONS The Lakeland Financial Corporation 1997 Share Incentive Plan reserves 600,000 shares of common stock for which Incentive Share Options (ISO) and Non-Qualified Share Options (NQSO) may be granted to employees of the Company and its subsidiaries, and NQSOs which may be granted to directors of the Company. Most options granted under this plan were issued for 10-year periods with full vesting five years from the date the option was granted. Information about options granted, exercised and forfeited during 2000 follows: Number Risk- Stock Fair of Exercise Free Price Value of Options Price Rate Volatility Grants --------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- Outstanding 1/1/00 290,270 Granted 2/8/00 98,150 $ 15.13 6.73% 44.00% $ 5.46 Granted 5/9/00 14,000 $ 14.13 6.79% 65.55% $ 7.52 Granted 6/13/00 89,500 $ 13.50 6.31% 66.77% $ 6.37 Exercised 0 Forfeited 44,650 Outstanding 6/30/00 447,270 The fair values of the options were estimated using an expected life of 5 years and expected dividends of $.13 per quarter. There were 16,500 options exercisable as of June 30, 2000. The Company accounts for the stock options under APB 25. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123 requires pro forma disclosures for companies that do not adopt its fair value accounting method for stock-based compensation. The following pro forma information presents net income, basic earnings per common share and diluted earnings per common share had the fair value method been used to measure compensation cost for stock option plans. No compensation cost was actually recognized for stock options in 2000 or 1999. 11

The gain is included in the salaries and employee benefits line of the income statement. 12
Part 1 LAKELAND FINANCIAL CORPORATION ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION and RESULTS OF OPERATION June 30, 2000 OVERVIEW Lakeland Financial Corporation (the "Company") is the holding company for Lake City Bank. The Company is headquartered in Warsaw, Indiana and operates 42 offices in 15 counties in northern Indiana. The Company earned $4.7 million for the first six months of 2000, an increase of 11.2% over the same period last year. During the second quarter of this year, earnings were $2.5 million, a 15.8% increase over the $2.2 million earned in the second quarter of 1999. The most substantial impact on earnings came from net interest income, which increased substantially during the first half of the year, as compared to the first six months of 1999. This increase occurred in part because of the efforts to improve the loan to deposit ratio, as well as by the gradual rise in interest rates, beginning in July 1999 and continuing during the first half of 2000. Over the past five years, total Company assets have more than doubled, from $533.3 million at June 30, 1995, to $1.083 billion at June 30, 2000. This increase of 103.1%, which equates to a 15.2% annual compounded growth rate, was accomplished through continued growth in existing markets with de-novo branch activity, growth in the existing network of offices and acquisitions. Stockholders' equity has increased from $33.8 million to $56.7 million over the same time period. This is a 67.9% increase, which equates to a 10.9% annual compounded growth rate. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 1995, compared to the net income for the same period of 2000, increased 77.3% from $2.7 million to $4.7 million. From June 30, 1995, to June 30, 2000, the number of Lake City Bank offices increased from 26 to 42. The capital necessary to support this growth has been provided through results of operation, issuance of trust preferred securities and existing capital. It should be noted that historical rates of growth may not be indicative of growth in future periods. FINANCIAL CONDITION Assets Total assets of the Company were $1.083 billion as of June 30, 2000. This was an increase of $43.5 million or 4.2% from $1.040 billion reported at December 31, 1999. Total loans were $678.9 million at June 30, 2000. This was an increase of $25.0 million or 3.8% from the December 31, 1999 balance. Total securities increased $9.4 million or 3.5% to $280.8 million as of June 30, 2000, from $271.4 million at December 31, 1999. Earning assets increased to $953.7 million at June 30, 2000. This was an increase of $30.3 million or 3.3% from the December 31, 1999, total of $923.4 million. 13
Funding Total deposits and securities sold under agreements to repurchase (repurchase agreements) consist of funds generated within the Company's primary market area. At June 30, 2000, this funding totaled $893.9 million. This represented a $24.2 million or 2.8% increase from December 31, 1999. The increase was primarily in noninterest-bearing demand accounts, which increased $17.4 million or 12.7% from the balance at December 31, 1999, and interest-bearing demand accounts, which increased $12.7 million or 11.2%. Repurchase agreements also increased $4.4 million or 3.6% from the balance at December 31, 1999, and time deposits decreased $10.2 million or 2.0%. The repurchase agreements are a combination of fixed rate contracts and variable rate corporate cash management accounts. In addition to these local funding sources, the Company borrows through the Treasury, Tax and Loan program, through federal fund lines with correspondent banks and through advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis (FHLB). Including these non-local sources, funding totaled $999.5 million at June 30, 2000. This was a $39.4 million or 4.1% increase from $960.1 million reported at December 31, 1999. The primary increase in non-local funding sources was federal fund lines, which are used for short-term funding needs. Earning Assets On an average daily basis, total earning assets increased 6.2% and 6.0% for the six-month and three-month periods ended June 30, 2000, as compared to the same periods in 1999. On an average daily basis, total deposits and purchased funds increased 7.2% and 6.8% for the six-month and three-month periods ended June 30, 2000, as compared to the same periods in 1999. Investment Portfolio The Company's investment portfolio consists of U.S. Treasuries, U.S. Government Agencies, mortgage-backed securities, municipal bonds, trust preferred securities and corporate debt. During 2000, new investments continued to be in U.S. Treasuries, mortgage-backed securities and trust preferred securities. At June 30, 2000, and December 31, 1999, the Company's investment in mortgage-backed securities comprised approximately 70.5% and 70.9% of total securities. The composition of this portfolio is primarily CMOs and mortgage pools issued by GNMA, FNMA and FHLMC, which are directly or indirectly guaranteed by the federal government. At June 30, 2000, the securities in the available-for-sale portfolio had a four year average life and a potential for approximately 10% price depreciation should rates move up 300 basis points. If rates were to move down 300 basis points, the average life would be three years with approximately 7% price appreciation possible. As of June 30, 2000, all mortgage-backed securities were performing in a manner consistent with management's original expectations. 14
The Company's available-for-sale portfolio is managed with consideration given to factors such as the Company's capital levels, growth prospects, asset/liability structure and liquidity needs. At June 30, 2000, the available-for-sale portfolio constituted 100.0% of the total security portfolio. During the first six months of 2000, purchases for the available-for-sale portfolio were $31.2 million and there were no sales. At June 30, 2000, the net after-tax unrealized loss in the available-for-sale portfolio included in stockholders' equity was $5.4 million, an increase of $617,000 from the unrealized loss of $4.8 million included in stockholders' equity at December 31, 1999. Future investment activity is difficult to predict, as it is dependent upon loan and deposit trends and other factors. Loans Total loans increased $25.0 million or 3.8% to $678.9 million as of June 30, 2000, from $653.9 million at December 31, 1999. Loan growth is net of loans reclassified to other real estate and loans sold. The Company continues to experience good loan demand. Commercial loans at June 30, 2000, increased $26.9 million or 6.4% from the level at December 31, 1999. Retail loans at June 30, 2000, decreased $4.1 million or 2.2% from December 31, 1999. This decrease was largely in indirect consumer loans with a decrease of $7.4 million or 8.6% from December 31, 1999. Real estate loans (excluding mortgages held-for-sale) increased $2.1 million or 4.6% from December 31, 1999. The real estate loan portfolio is impacted by secondary market activity, which is a function of current interest rates and economic conditions. As interest rates have gradually risen since the middle of last year, the level of refinancings have declined. Through June 30, 2000, the Company sold mortgages totaling $10.6 million into the secondary market as compared to $31.7 million during the same period in 1999. During these same two periods, loans originated for sale totaled $10.5 million and $30.4 million. As a part of the Community Reinvestment Act commitment to making real estate financing available to a variety of customers, the Company continues to originate non-conforming loans that are held to maturity or prepayment. The Company had 66.1% of its loans concentrated in commercial loans at June 30, 2000, and 64.6% at December 31, 1999. Traditionally, this type of lending may have more credit risk than other types of lending because of the size and diversity of the credits. The Company manages this risk by adjusting its pricing to the perceived risk of each individual credit, and by 15
diversifying the portfolio by customer, product, industry and geography. Customer diversification is accomplished through an administrative loan limit of $8.5 million. Based upon state banking regulations, the Bank's legal loan limit at June 30, 2000, was approximately $11.7 million. Product diversification is accomplished by offering a wide variety of financing options. Management reviews the loan portfolio to ensure loans are diversified by industry. The loans in the portfolios are distributed throughout the Company's principal trade area, which encompasses fifteen counties in Indiana. Loans renegotiated as troubled debt restructurings are those loans for which either the contractual interest rate has been reduced and/or other concessions were granted to the borrower, because of a deterioration in the financial condition of the borrower which results in the inability of the borrower to meet the original terms of the loan. Loans renegotiated as troubled debt restructurings totaled $1.1 million at June 30, 2000, as compared to $1.2 million at December 31, 1999. The loans classified as troubled debt restructurings at June 30, 2000 were performing in accordance with the modified terms. For the first six months of 2000, loans increased more than deposits. During this six-month period, loans increased $25.0 million or 3.8%. Commercial loan demand continues to be good, while consumer loan demand has weakened. Demand accounts, which are noninterest-bearing, increased $17.4 million or 12.7% during the first six months of 2000, and other transaction accounts increased $12.7 million during the same period. During the first half of this year, time deposits decreased by $10.2 million or 2.0%. The Company's loan to deposit ratio was 88.4% at June 30, 2000, a slight increase from 87.4% at year-end 1999. Market Risk The Company's primary market risk exposure is interest rate risk. The Company does not have a material exposure to foreign currency exchange risk, does not own any derivative financial instruments and does not maintain a trading portfolio. The Company, through its Asset/Liability Committee (ALCO), manages interest rate risk by monitoring the computer simulated earnings impact of various rate scenarios. The Company then modifies its long-term risk parameters by attempting to generate the type of loans, investments, and deposits that currently fit ALCO needs. This computer simulation analysis measures the net interest income impact of a 300 basis point change in interest rates during the next 12 months. If the change in net interest income is less than 3% of primary capital, the balance sheet structure is considered to be within acceptable risk levels. At June 30, 2000, the Company's potential pretax exposure was within the Company's policy limit. This policy was last reviewed and approved by the Board of Directors in May, 2000. 16
The following table provides information about the Company's financial instruments used for purposes other than trading that are sensitive to changes in interest rates. For loans, securities, and liabilities with contractual maturities, the table presents principal cash flows and related weighted-average interest rates by contractual maturities. Additionally the Company's historical prepayment experience is included in cash flows for residential and home equity loans and for mortgage-backed securities. For core deposits such as demand deposits, interest-bearing checking, savings and money market deposits that have no contractual maturity, the table presents principal cash flows based upon management's judgment and statistical analysis. Weighted-average variable rates are the rates in effect at the reporting date. 17

Borrowings The Company is a member of the FHLB of Indianapolis. Membership has enabled the Company to participate in the housing programs sponsored by the FHLB, which enhances the Company's ability to offer additional programs throughout its trade area. The Company's Board of Directors has authorized borrowings of up to $100 million under the FHLB program. As of June 30, 2000, the borrowings from the FHLB totaled $61.3 million. The maturities of these borrowings are: $5.0 million due October 11, 2000, $5.0 million due October 16, 2000, $5.0 million due October 23, 2000, $5.0 million due October 24, 2000, $5.0 million due October 25, 2000, $10.0 million due December 18, 2000, $15.0 million due December 26, 2000, $10.0 million due December 28, 2001, $1.3 million due June 24, 2003, and $49,000 with annual payments maturing on January 15, 2018. All borrowings are collateralized by residential real estate mortgages and mortgage-backed securities. Membership in the FHLB requires an equity investment in FHLB stock. The amount required is computed annually, and is based upon a formula that considers the Company's total investment in residential real estate loans, mortgage-backed securities and any FHLB advances outstanding at year-end. The Company's investment in FHLB stock at June 30, 2000, was $3.6 million. Capital and Stockholders' Equity The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation's (FDIC) risk based capital regulations require that all banks maintain an 8.0% total risk based capital ratio. The FDIC has also established definitions of "well capitalized" as a 5.0% Tier I leverage capital ratio, a 6.0% Tier I risk based capital ratio and a 10.0% total risk based capital ratio. As of June 30, 2000, the Bank's ratios were 6.7%, 9.2% and 10.2%, excluding the SFAS No. 115 adjustment. The ratios reported at December 31, 1999 were 6.7%, 9.1% and 10.0% and ratios reported at June 30, 1999 were 6.4%, 9.2% and 10.1%. All ratios continue to be above "well capitalized" levels. Total stockholders' equity increased $2.5 million or 4.7% from December 31, 1999, to $56.7 million at June 30, 2000. Net income of $4.7 million, less dividends of $1.5 million, less the decrease in the accumulated other comprehensive income of $617,000, less $57,000 for the cost of treasury stock acquired, comprised this increase. The Company has adopted a dividend reinvestment and stock purchase plan, which became available to the Company's shareholders in July, 2000. The purpose of the dividend reinvestment plan is to provide participating shareholders with a simple and convenient method of investing cash dividends paid by the Company on its shares of common stock into additional shares of common stock. All of the Company's shareholders of record are eligible to participate in the plan. 19
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Net Income Net income increased to $4.7 million for the first six months of 2000, an increase of $474,000 from the $4.2 million recorded over the same period in 1999. For the three months ended June 30, 2000, net income was $2.5 million as compared to $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999. Basic earnings per share for the first six months of 2000 was $.81 per share, which was an increase over the $.73 per share for the first six months of 1999, and $.43 per share for the second quarter of 2000 as compared to $.37 per share for the same period of 1999. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilutive impact of stock options granted under an employee stock option plan. The stock options did not have an impact on earnings per share as diluted earnings per share were the same as basic earnings per share for both the six-month and three-month periods ended June 30, 2000. Net Interest Income The net effect of all factors affecting total interest and dividend income and total interest expense was to increase net interest income. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2000, net interest income totaled $17.4 million, an increase of 12.8% or $2.0 million over the first six months of 1999. For the three-month period ended June 30, 2000, net interest income totaled $8.9 million, an increase of 12.3% or $976,000 over the same period of 1999. This increase occurred in part because of the efforts to improve the loan to deposit ratio beginning in 1999, and continuing in 2000. This increase also was influenced by the gradual rise in interest rates, which began during the last half of 1999 and continued during the first half of 2000. During the first six months of 2000, total interest and dividend income increased $5.1 million or 15.2% to $38.6 million, from $33.5 million during the same six months of 1999. Interest and dividend income increased $2.7 million or 15.6% for the second quarter of 2000, as compared to the 1999 quarter. Daily average earning assets for the first two quarters of 2000 increased to $946.9 million, a 6.2% increase over the same period in 1999. For the second quarter alone, the daily average earning assets increased to $956.8 million, a 6.0% increase over the daily average earning assets of the second quarter of 1999. The tax equivalent yield on average earning assets increased by 57 basis points for the six-month period ended June 30, 2000, when compared to the same period of 1999. For the three-month period ended June 30, 2000, this yield increased 69 basis points from the yield for the three-month period ended June 30, 1999. 20
The increase in the yield on average earning assets reflected increases in the yields on both loans and securities caused by the rising interest rate environment. The yield on securities is historically lower than the yield on loans, and decreasing the ratio of securities to total earning assets will normally raise the yield on earning assets. The ratio of average daily securities to average earning assets for the six-month and three-month periods ended June 30, 2000 were 29.0% and 28.9% compared to 34.8% and 33.2% for the same periods of 1999. In addition, the overall tax equivalent yield on loans increased 41 and 61 basis points when comparing the six-month and three-month periods. The yield on securities increased 47 and 54 basis points when comparing the same periods. The average daily loan balances for the first six months of 2000 increased 16.3% over the average daily loan balances for the same period of 1999. The average daily loan balances for the three-months ended June 30, 2000 increased 12.7% over the average daily loan balances for the three-months ended June 30, 1999. The loan growth since the first quarter of 1999 was primarily funded by securities sales and maturities and partially by increases in deposits and borrowings. The increase in loan interest income of $5.3 million or 22.0% and $2.5 million or 20.0% for the six and three-month periods in 2000 as compared to the same periods in 1999, primarily resulted from this loan growth, as well as an increase in the yields. Income from securities totaled $8.8 million for the first six months of 2000, a decrease of $209,000 or 2.3% over the amount for the same period of 1999. This decrease was the result of the decrease in the average daily balances of securities year to year offset by the increase in the yields on securities. The income from securities for the three-month period ended June 30, 2000 was $4.5 million as compared to $4.4 million, an increase of $106,000 or 2.4% over the three-month period ended June 30, 1999. This increase was a result of the increase in the yields on securities offset by the decrease in average daily balances of securities. The average daily balances of securities for the six and three-month periods ended June 30, 2000 decreased $35.3 million and $22.6 million when compared to the same periods of the prior year. Income from short-term investments amounted to $143,000 for the six-month period and $85,000 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2000. This compares to $192,000 and $55,000 for the same periods in 1999. The decrease of $49,000 when comparing the six-month periods resulted from a decrease of $3.1 million or 36.7% in the average balance of short-term investments, offset by a 114 basis point increase in the yield. The increase of $30,000 for the second quarter of 2000 over the same period in 1999 resulted from a 174 basis point increase in the yields. Total interest expense increased $3.1 million or 17.2% to $21.2 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2000, from $18.1 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 1999 and increased $1.7 million or 18.5% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2000, from the $9.1 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 1999. This was a result of the overall 21
growth of deposits in existing offices, changes in the deposit mix and a 36 basis point increase in the Company's daily cost of funds. On an average daily basis, total deposits (including demand deposits) increased 4.0% and 3.9% for the six and three-month periods ended June 30, 2000, as compared to the similar periods in 1999. When comparing the same periods, the average daily balances of the demand deposit accounts rose $19.8 million and $22.1 million, while the average daily balances of savings and transaction accounts combined increased $11.6 million and $15.4 million. The average daily balance of time deposits, which pay a higher rate of interest compared to demand deposit and transaction accounts, increased $49,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000, compared to the six months ended June 30, 1999. For the three-month period ended June 30, 2000, the average daily balance of time deposits decreased $7.9 million, as compared to the three-months ended June 30, 1999. These deposit trends are the result of management's efforts to grow relationship type accounts such as demand deposit and Investors' Weekly accounts, which pay a lower rate of interest compared to time deposit accounts and better match the characteristics of the assets being generated. Management plans to continue these efforts during the remainder of 2000. Average daily balances of borrowings increased $37.0 million and $37.2 million for the six and three-month periods ended June 30, 2000 compared to the same periods of 1999, and the rate on borrowings increased 65 and 43 basis points when comparing the same periods. On an average daily basis, total deposits (including demand deposits) and purchased funds increased 7.2% and 6.8% for the six and three-month periods ended June 30, 2000, as compared to the six and three-month periods ended June 30, 1999. Provision for Loan Losses The Company maintains the allowance for loan losses at a level that is deemed appropriate based upon loan loss experience, the nature of the portfolio, the growth of the portfolio and the evaluation of current economic conditions. Special consideration is given to watch list loans, non-performing loans and non-accrual loans, as well as other factors that management feels deserve recognition. The Company maintains a quarterly loan review program designed to provide reasonable assurance that the allowance is maintained at an appropriate level and that changes in the status of loans are reflected in the financial statements in a timely manner. The adherence to this policy may result in fluctuations in the provision for loan losses. Consequently, the increase in net interest income before provision for loan losses, discussed above, may not necessarily flow through to the net interest income after provision for loan losses. The provision amounted to $615,000 and $500,000 for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2000 and 1999. For the three-month periods ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, the provision amounted to $400,000 and $275,000. These 22
provisions reflect a number of factors, including the size of the loan portfolio and consideration of the levels of past due accruing loans (90 days or more) and non-accrual loans over the same periods. After reviewing these factors, management decided to increase the provision due to increased commercial loan growth, as well as an increase in the Bank's internal watch list loans. As of June 30, 2000, loans delinquent 90 days or more and were included in the accompanying financial statements as accrual loans totaled approximately $229,000. At June 30, 2000, there were loans totaling $151,000 on non-accrual. At December 31, 1999, there were $171,000 in loans delinquent 90 days or more included as accruing loans in the financial statements and there were $329,000 on non-accrual. These levels of non-performing loans reflect both the general economic conditions that have promoted growth and expansion in the Company's trade area during the last several years, and a credit risk management strategy that promotes diversification. As a result of management's analysis of the adequacy of the allowance, the ratio of the allowance for loan losses to total loans was 1.03% for June 30, 2000, 1.00% for December 31, 1999 and .95% for June 30, 1999. As part of the loan review process, management reviews all loans classified as `special mention' or below, as well as other loans that might require classification as impaired. As of June 30, 2000, loan balances totaling $887,000 were classified as impaired and as of December 31, 1999, $246,000 were classified as impaired. Following is a summary of the loan loss experience for the six months ended June 30, 2000, and the year ended December 31, 1999. 23

Net interest income after provision for loan losses totaled $16.7 million and $8.5 million for the six and three-month periods ended June 30, 2000. This represented an increase of 12.5% and 11.1% over the same periods ended June 30, 1999. Noninterest Income Total noninterest income decreased $1.1 million or 17.4% to $5.1 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2000, from $6.2 million recorded for the six-month period ended June 30, 1999. Total noninterest income for the three-month period ended June 30, 2000, was $2.5 million which was $612,000 lower than the noninterest income for the three months ended June 30, 1999. While fee income increased during the first two quarters of 2000, noninterest income for the first two quarters declined principally because of the decline in mortgage loan sale activity due to rising rates and securities gains realized during the first two quarters of 1999. Trust and brokerage fees, which represent basic recurring service fee income, increased $226,000 or 27.2% to $1.1 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2000, as compared to $830,000 for the first six months of 1999. For the three-month period ended June 30, 2000, trust and brokerage fees were $505,000, an increase of $93,000 over the fees for the same period in 1999. Trust and brokerage both had strong increases over last year. Trust fees increased 32.1% when comparing the first two quarters of 2000 to the same period of 1999. This increase was primarily in employee benefit plans, agency and testamentary trusts. Brokerage fees increased 18.4% when comparing the first two quarters of 2000 to the same period of 1999. This increase was the result of increased volume from customer acceptance of the product. Service charges on deposit accounts increased 4.9% or $102,000 during the six-month period ended June 30, 2000, totaling $2.2 million, as compared to the same period in 1999. The service charges increased $37,000 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2000, over the amount recorded for the three-month period ended June 30, 1999. Fees related to business checking accounts were the primary sources for the increase. Other income consists of normal recurring fee income, as well as other income that management classifies as non-recurring. Other income decreased $26,000 or 1.6% to $1.6 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2000, as compared to the same period in 1999. The primary decreases were in ORE(other real estate) income and mortgage fee income. The profits from the sale of mortgages during the six-month period ended June 30, 2000, totaled $238,000, as compared to $755,000 during the same period in 1999. For the second quarter of 2000 only, these profits were $108,000 as compared to $295,000 for the same period in 1999. This decrease 25
reflected a decrease in the volume of mortgages sold during the first six months of 2000, as compared to the sales during the first six months of 1999. This decrease in volume was a result of the rising interest rate environment, which began in the last half of 1999. Management expects this trend to continue. There were no investment securities gains (losses) for the six and three-month periods ended June 30, 2000, compared to $859,000 and $408,000 for the six and three-month periods ended June 30, 1999. Noninterest Expense Noninterest expense increased $302,000 or 2.1% to $15.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2000, as compared to the first six months of 1999. Noninterest expense decreased $178,000 or 2.4% when comparing the three months ended June 30, 2000, to the three months ended June 30, 1999. For the six months ended June 30, 2000, salaries and employee benefits decreased to $7.6 million, a $77,000 decrease or 1.0% as compared to the first six months of 1999. When comparing the three months ended June 30, 2000, to the same period in 1999, the decrease was $305,000 or 7.8%. This decrease reflected the pension plan curtailment gain recognized in the second quarter of 2000, offset by normal salary increases and higher employee insurance premiums. Total employees decreased to 487 at June 30, 2000, from 497 at June 30, 1999. This decrease primarily resulted from the closing of two offices during the second quarter of 2000. For the six and three-month periods ended June 30, 2000, occupancy and equipment expenses were $2.6 million and $1.3 million, a $19,000 or .7% decrease and $36,000 or 2.7% decrease from the same periods one year ago. The slight decrease in expense is the result of closing two offices in the second quarter of 2000. Also, the growth in these expenses has lessened with the completion of the Year 2000 project and the completion of a major technology upgrade. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2000, other expenses totaled $4.8 million as compared to $4.4 million during the same period in 1999. This was an increase of 9.0% or $398,000. For the second quarter of 2000 compared to the second quarter of 1999, the increase was $163,000 or 7.0%. When comparing the six and three-month periods ended June 30, 2000 to the same periods of 1999, a significant increase was noted in professional fees (up $249,000 or 83.3% and $146,000 or 95.3%). This increase was primarily due to non-recurring expenses related to employee benefit plans. 26
Income Before Income Tax Expense Income before income tax expense increased $478,000 or 7.5% to $6.8 million for the first six months of 2000, as compared to $6.4 million for the same period in 1999. For the three months ended June 30, 2000, income before income taxes was $3.7 million as compared to $3.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999. This was due primarily to the increase in net interest income. Income Tax Expense Income tax expense increased $4,000 or .2% for the first six months of 2000, as compared to the same period in 1999. Income tax expense for the second quarter of 2000 increased $75,000 or 6.9%, as compared to the second quarter of 1999. The combined state franchise tax expense and the federal income tax expense as a percentage of income before income tax expense decreased to 31.2% during the first six months of 2000, as compared to 33.4% during the same period in 1999. It decreased to 31.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2000, as compared to 33.6% for the same three months in 1999. This decrease is primarily a result of lower state franchise tax expense. YEAR 2000 The Company had a successful Year 2000 and leap year rollover. At this point, the Company has not experienced any Year 2000 issues as a result of the rollover, and is not aware of any customers that have experienced any material Year 2000 issues. This success can be attributed to the two years of planning and preparation for the Year 2000. Part of the preparation was evaluating, upgrading and/or replacing all hardware, software, and electrical and mechanical equipment that was not year 2000 compliant. Through this evaluation process, systems that were identified as not Year 2000 ready were either upgraded or retired. The Company upgraded 19 systems and retired 23 systems based on the results of the evaluation process. As part of this preparation, the Company contacted all vendors, corporate depositors, and all large corporate lending customers to assess their Year 2000 efforts. While the rollover went smoothly, Year 2000 monitoring will continue for much of the year to assure that all potential Year 2000 issues are addressed. Recent Regulatory Developments The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (the "Act"), which was enacted in November, 1999, allows eligible bank holding companies to engage in a wider range of nonbanking activities, including greater authority to engage in securities and insurance activities. Under the Act, an eligible bank holding company that elects to become a financial holding company may engage in any 27
activity that the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve"), in consultation with the Secretary of the Treasury, determines by regulation or order is financial in nature, incidental to any such financial activity, or complementary to any such financial activity and does not pose a substantial risk to the safety or soundness of depository institutions or the financial system generally. National banks are also authorized by the Act to engage, through "financial subsidiaries," in certain activity that is permissible for financial holding companies (as described above) and certain activity that the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Federal Reserve, determines is financial in nature or incidental to any such financial activity. Various bank regulatory agencies have begun issuing regulations as mandated by the Act. During June, 2000, all of the federal bank regulatory agencies jointly issued regulations implementing the privacy provisions of the Act. In addition, the Federal Reserve issued interim regulations establishing procedures for bank holding companies to elect to become financial holding companies and listing the financial activities permissible for financial holding companies, as well as describing the extent to which financial holding companies may engage in securities and merchant banking activities. The Federal Reserve has issued an interim regulation regarding the parameters under which state member banks may establish and maintain financial subsidiaries. At this time, it is not possible to predict the impact the Act and its implementing regulations may have on the Company or the Bank. As of the date of this filing, the Company has not applied for or received approval to operate as a financial holding company. In addition, the Bank has not applied for or received approval to establish any financial subsidiaries.
