THE PEOPLES HOLDING COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARY MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (in thousands, except share data) This Form 10-Q may contain, or incorporate by reference, statements which may constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Prospective investors are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees for future performance and involve risks and uncertainties, and that actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements. Important factors currently known to management that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in forward-looking statements include significant fluctuations in interest rates, inflation, economic recession, significant changes in the federal and state legal and regulatory environment, significant underperformance in the Company's portfolio of outstanding loans, and competition in the Company's markets. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results over time. Financial Condition Total assets of The Peoples Holding Company grew from $1,162,959 on December 31, 1999, to $1,206,194 on June 30, 2000, or 3.72% for the six month period. On June 30, 2000, average earning assets were $1,099,737, or 92.45% of total average assets, compared to $1,059,596, or 92.41% of total average assets on December 31, 1999. The securities portfolio is utilized as a means of liquidity, an alternative earning source for excess funds, and collateral on pledges for certain types of deposits. Total securities increased from $266,744 on December 31, 1999, to $276,603 on June 30, 2000. The loan portfolio represents the largest component of the Company's assets. Loans, net of unearned income, increased $27,757, or 3.47%, from $799,085 at December 31, 1999 to $826,842 at June 30, 2000. Most of the increase in the loan portfolio was accounted for in commercial loan accounts. The Company's primary source of funding continues to be deposits generated in the communities served by the Bank. Total deposits for the first six months of 2000 grew from $978,958 on December 31, 1999 to $1,043,706 on June 30, 2000, or an increase of 6.61%, with the majority of growth in public fund checking and time deposits. Short-term borrowings have also been utilized to assist in funding loans, investments, fixed asset additions, and cash reserves. Total shareholders' equity for the Company grew from $116,089 on December 31, 1999, to $116,218 on June 30, 2000, or .11% for the six month period. The equity capital to total assets ratios were 9.64% and 9.98% for June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999, respectively. Changes in accumulated comprehensive income related to unrealized portfolio losses and the repurchase of 190,238 shares of common stock during the second quarter both contributed to the curtailment of growth in capital. Cash dividends increased from $.21 per share in December of 1999 to $.22 per share for both quarters of 2000. 9
Results of Operations The Company's net income for the six month period ending June 30, 2000, was $5,984, representing an decrease of $2,388, or 28.52%, compared to net income for the six month period ending June 30, 1999, which totaled $8,372. Earnings for 1999 were impacted by an after tax gain of $2,344 recognized on the sale of our credit card loan portfolio. The sale of approximately $18,000 in credit card loans was the first step in liquidating the portfolio. The Company also recognized an additional increase of $633 in its loan loss reserve principally related to the remaining portion of the credit card portfolio. Earnings for 2000 were adversely impacted by an addition of $700 to the loan loss reserve. After consulting with regulators and the Bank's external accountants, the Company's management decided that the reserve for loan losses had fallen below desirable levels due to loan growth over the past several months that exceeded expectations and some minor credits which had deteriorated. Despite the corrective action that was taken, loan losses for 2000 are expected to be within acceptable levels. Without the effects of the credit card gain, earnings of $5,984 for the six month period ending June 30, 2000, were down $44, or .73%, from the $6,028 core earnings reported for the same period of 1999. Net income was $2,716 and $5,157 for the quarters ending June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The annualized return on average assets for the six month periods ending June 30, 2000 and 1999, was 1.06% and 1.31%, respectively. Net interest income, the difference between interest earned on assets and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities, is the largest component of the Company's net income. The primary concerns in managing net interest income are the mix and the maturities of rate-sensitive assets and liabilities. Net interest margins were 4.48% and 4.69% for the six month periods ending June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. While the Company has grown its asset base significantly, the decrease in net interest income was due to an increase in costing liabilities and the reduction of the spread, over prime, on loans as rates rose. Net interest income for the six month periods ending June 30, 2000 and 1999 was $22,876 and $23,137, respectively. For the three month periods ending June 30, 2000 and 1999, net interest income was $11,311 and $11,735, respectively. The provision for loan losses charged to operating expense is an amount which, in the judgement of management, is necessary to maintain the allowance for loan losses at a level that is adequate to meet the inherent risks of losses on the Company's current portfolio of loans. The appropriate level of the allowance is based on a quarterly analysis of the loan portfolio including consideration of such factors as the risk rating of individual credits, size and diversity of the portfolio, economic conditions, prior loss experience, and the results of periodic credit reviews by internal loan review and regulators. The provision for loan losses totaled $2,679 and $2,021 for the six month periods ending June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. For the quarters ending June 30, 2000 and 1999, the provision for loan losses totaled $1,690 and $1,275, respectively. As stated earlier, an additional $700 was booked to the provision for loan losses during the second quarter of 2000, and an additional $633 was charged to the provision for loan losses during the second quarter of 1999 related to the credit card portfolio sale. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans outstanding was 1.32% and 1.26% as of June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999, respectively. Net charge-offs to average loans were .23% and .16% for the six month periods ending June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. 10
Excluding the pre-tax gain of $3,843 on the sale of the credit card portfolio during 1999, noninterest income increased $1,212, or 15.75%, to $8,905 for the six month period ending June 30, 2000, when compared to the core noninterest income of $7,693 for the same period in 1999. Excluding all gains from the sales of securities and loans, noninterest income was $4,450 for the three month period ending June 30, 2000, compared to $3,424 for the same period in 1999, or an increase of 29.96%. The increase between core noninterest income for 2000 and 1999 is due in large part to fees associated with the increases in loans and deposits and the continued emphasis in sales of miscellaneous services and products. While non-sufficient fund fees accounted for the majority of the increase in service charges, changes made to our fee structure on different account types created a substantial boost to service charge income. Fees and commissions increased as a result of financial investment alternative commissions, agency and direct bill insurance commissions, loan document preparation fees, Handy Check income, and ATM usage fees. Other noninterest income decreased from the prior year primarily as the result of the elimination of credit card interchange fees associated with the sale of the credit card portfolio in 1999. Noninterest expenses were $20,830 for the six month period ending June 30, 2000, compared to $20,650 for the same period in 1999, or an increase of .87%. Depreciation expense related to the recent placement of new premises, equipment, and other technology enhancements has been the most significant increase in noninterest expense between these periods. The increase in noninterest expense has been minimized by the reduction of acquisition costs and credit card processing costs incurred during the first six months of 1999. The remaining components of noninterest expense reflect normal increases for banking related expenses and general inflation in the cost of services and supplies purchased by the Company. Noninterest expenses for the quarter ending June 30, 2000, increased $89, or .86%, compared to the same period in 1999. Income tax expense was $2,288 for the six month period ending June 30, 2000, compared to $3,630 for the same period in 1999. Income taxes for 1999 reflect a non-recurring charge associated with the gain realized on the sale of the credit card portfolio. The Company also continues to invest in assets whose earnings are given favorable tax treatment. Liquidity Risk Liquidity management is the ability to meet the cash flow requirements of customers who may be either depositors wishing to withdraw funds or borrowers needing assurance that sufficient funds will be available to meet their credit needs. Core deposits are a major source of funds used to meet cash flow needs. Maintaining the ability to acquire these funds as needed in a variety of money markets is a key to assuring liquidity. When evaluating the movement of these funds even during times of large interest rate changes, it is apparent that the Company continues to attract deposits that can be used to meet cash flow needs. Management continues to monitor the liquidity and potentially volatile liabilities ratios to ensure compliance with Asset-Liability Committee targets. These targets are set to ensure that the Company meets the liquidity requirements deemed necessary by management and regulators. 11
Another source available for meeting the Company's liquidity needs is available-for-sale securities. The available-for-sale portfolio is composed of securities with a readily available market that can be used to convert to cash if the need arises. In addition, the Company maintains a federal funds position that provides day-to-day funds to meet liquidity needs and may also obtain advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) or the treasury tax and loan note account. Historically, the Company has not relied upon these sources to meet long-term liquidity needs. Sources of funds derived from the FHLB are used to match mortgage loan originations in order to minimize interest rate risk and to provide short-term funding. Capital Resources The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Bank's financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank's assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank's capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum balances and ratios. All banks are required to have core capital (Tier I) of at least 4% of risk-weighted assets (as defined), 4% of average assets (as defined), and total capital of 8% of risk-weighted assets (as defined). As of June 30, 2000, the Bank has met all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject. As of June 30, 2000, the most recent notification from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based, and Tier I leverage ratios of 10%, 6%, and 5%, respectively. In the opinion of management, there are no conditions or events since the last notification that have changed the institution's category.
