NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(1) GENERAL
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of BancFirst Corporation, BFC Capital Trust I, Century Life Assurance Company, Council Oak Capital, Inc., Council Oak Partners, LLC, and BancFirst and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Assets held in a fiduciary or agency capacity are not assets of the Company and, accordingly, are not included in the consolidated financial statements.
The unaudited interim financial statements contained herein reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to provide a fair statement of the financial position and results of operations of the Company for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. There have been no significant changes in the accounting policies of the Company since December 31, 2002, the date of the most recent annual report. Certain amounts in the 2002 financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2003 presentation.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles inherently involves the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the related disclosures. These estimates relate principally to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, income taxes and the fair values of financial instruments. Such estimates and assumptions may change over time and actual amounts realized may differ from those reported.
(2) RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In December 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure – an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123.” This Statement amends SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” to provide two additional transition methods for entities that adopt the fair value method of accounting for stock-based compensation. This Statement also prohibits the use of the prospective method of transition for changes to the fair value method made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2003. In addition, this Statement requires new disclosures about the effect of stock-based compensation on reported results and requires more prominent disclosures about stock-based compensation by prescribing specific tabular format and by requiring disclosure in the “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.” The adoption of this new standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, as the Company uses the intrinsic value method of accounting for stock-based compensation. Pro forma disclosures as if the Company adopted the cost recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 in 1995 are presented below.
APB 25 charge
FAS 123 charge
Net income per share:
The effects of applying SFAS No. 123 to the pro forma disclosure are not indicative of future results. SFAS No. 123 does not apply to grants of options prior to 1995 and the Company anticipates making additional grants in the future.
In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (“FIN 46”) which provides guidance for determining when an entity should consolidate another entity that meets the definition of a variable interest entity. Special purpose entities and other types of entities would be assessed for consolidation under this
5
new guidance. FIN 46 requires a variable interest entity to be consolidated if the company will absorb a majority of the expected losses, will receive a majority of the expected residual returns, or both. FIN 46 is effective immediately for interests in variable interest entities acquired after January 31, 2003. It applies in the first interim period after June 15, 2003 to interests in variable interest entities acquired before February 1, 2003. At June 30, 2003, the Company had an interest in BFC Capital Trust I (the “Trust”) which it acquired in January 1997. The Company consolidates the Trust and reports the $25,000 of 9.65% Capital Securities issued by the Trust as debt. A possible interpretation of FIN 46 would require that the Company deconsolidate the Trust and report the $25,000 of subordinated debentures issued by BancFirst Corporation to the Trust as debt instead of the 9.65% Capital Securities. The potential impact of this change on total assets and total liabilities would be immaterial. However, another potential result of the deconsolidation of the Trust could be that the 9.65% Capital Securities would no longer be included in the Company’s Tier 1 capital. The Federal Reserve Board has issued interim guidance that allows such securities to continue to qualify as Tier 1 capital while the issue of deconsolidation continues under review.
(3) RECENT DEVELOPMENTS; MERGERS, ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSALS
In January 2003, BancFirst Corporation repurchased 320,000 shares of its common stock for $14,400. The shares were repurchased through a market-maker in the Company’s stock and was not a part of the Company’s ongoing Stock Repurchase Program.
In July 2003, BancFirst Corporation entered into an agreement to acquire Lincoln National Bancorporation (“Lincoln”) of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma for cash of approximately $18,500. Lincoln has consolidated total assets of approximately $117,100. As a result of the acquisition, Lincoln will be merged into BancFirst Corporation, and Lincoln’s wholly-owned bank subsidiary, Lincoln National Bank, will become a subsidiary of BancFirst Corporation. The acquisition will be accounted for as a purchase. Accordingly, the effects of the acquisition will be included in the Company’ consolidated financial statements from the date of the acquisition forward. The acquisition is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2003 and will not have a material effect on the results of operations of the Company.

Total loans
Loans held for sale (included above)
The Company’s loans are mostly to customers within Oklahoma and over half of the loans are secured by real estate. Credit risk on loans is managed through limits on amounts loaned to individual borrowers, underwriting standards and loan monitoring procedures. The amounts and types of collateral obtained to secure loans are based upon the Company’s underwriting standards and management’s credit evaluation. Collateral varies, but may include real estate, equipment, accounts receivable, inventory, livestock and securities. The Company’s interest in collateral is secured through filing mortgages and liens, and in some cases, by possession of the collateral. The amount of estimated loss due to credit risk in the Company’s loan portfolio is provided for in the allowance for loan losses. The amount of the allowance required to provide for all existing losses in the loan portfolio is an estimate based upon evaluations of loans, appraisals of collateral and other estimates which are subject to rapid change due to changing economic conditions and the economic prospects of borrowers. It is reasonably possible that a material change could occur in the estimated allowance for loan losses in the near term.
Changes in the allowance for loan losses are summarized as follows:

(8) LONG-TERM BORROWINGS
In June 2003, the Company retired $25,100 of Federal Home Loan Bank advances under its line of credit, and recognized a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $2,429. This early retirement of the advances was a part of a plan to adjust the Company’s interest rate sensitivity. These advances retired had fixed rates of from 3.47% to 7.87% and maturities of from 2008 to 2017.
(9) CAPITAL
The Company is subject to risk-based capital guidelines issued by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. These guidelines are used to evaluate capital adequacy and involve both quantitative and qualitative evaluations of the Company’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items calculated under regulatory practices. Failure to meet the minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory or discretionary actions by the regulatory agencies that could have a direct material effect on the Company’s financial statements. The required minimums and the Company’s respective ratios are shown below.

Total capital ratio
To be “well capitalized” under federal bank regulatory agency definitions, a depository institution must have a leverage ratio of at least 5%, a Tier 1 ratio of at least 6%, and a combined total capital ratio of at least 10%. As of June 30, 2003 and 2002, and December 31, 2002, BancFirst was considered to be “well capitalized”. There are no conditions or events since the most recent notification of BancFirst’s capital category that management believes would change its category.
(10) STOCK REPURCHASE PLAN
In November 1999, the Company adopted a new Stock Repurchase Program (the “SRP”) authorizing management to repurchase up to 300,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The SRP was amended in May 2001 to increase the shares authorized to be purchased by 277,916 shares and was amended again in August 2002 to increase the number of shares authorized to be purchased by 182,265 shares. The SRP may be used as a means to increase earnings per share and return on equity, to purchase treasury stock for the exercise of stock options or for distributions under the Deferred Stock Compensation Plan, to provide liquidity for optionees to dispose of stock from exercises of their stock options, and
9
to provide liquidity for shareholders wishing to sell their stock. The timing, price and amount of stock repurchases under the SRP may be determined by management and must be approved by the Company’s Executive Committee. At June 30, 2003 there were 250,701 shares remaining that could be repurchased under the SRP. Below is a summary of the shares repurchased under the program.
Number of shares repurchased

(13) SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company evaluates its performance with an internal profitability measurement system that measures the profitability of its business units on a pre-tax basis. The four principal business units are metropolitan banks, community
11
banks, other financial services, and executive, operations and support. Metropolitan and community banks offer traditional banking products such as commercial and retail lending, and a full line of deposit accounts. Metropolitan banks consist of banking locations in the metropolitan Oklahoma City and Tulsa areas. Community banks consist of banking locations in communities throughout Oklahoma. Other financial services are specialty product business units including guaranteed small business lending, guaranteed student lending, residential mortgage lending, electronic banking, trust services, insurance services, merchant banking and brokerage services. The executive, operations and support groups represent executive management, operational support and corporate functions that are not allocated to the other business units. The results of operations and selected financial information for the four business units are as follows:

The financial information for each business unit is presented on the basis used internally by management to evaluate performance and allocate resources. The Company utilizes a transfer pricing system to allocate the benefit or cost of funds provided or used by the various business units. Certain revenues related to other financial services are allocated to the banks whose customers receive the services and, therefor, are not reflected in the income for other financial services. Certain services provided by the support group to other business units, such as item processing, are allocated at rates approximating the cost of providing the services. Eliminations are adjustments to consolidate the business units and companies.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
SUMMARY
Net income for the second quarter ended June 30, 2003 was $8.07 million, compared to $8.37 million for the second quarter of 2002. Diluted net income per share was $1.02 both the second quarter of 2003 and the second quarter of 2002. For the first six months of 2003, net income was $16.7 million, compared to $16.3 million for the first six months of 2002. Diluted net income per share for the first six months was $2.09, up from $1.97 for the first six months of 2002. Net income per share for 2003 was positively impacted by the repurchase of 320,000 shares of the Company’s stock for $14.4 million in January 2003.
Total assets at June 30, 2003 was $2.85 billion, up $51.5 million from December 31, 2002 and up $135 million from June 30, 2002. Stockholders’ equity was $249 million at June 30, 2003, down $2.19 million from December 31, 2002 due to the stock repurchase in the first quarter, and up $18 million compared to June 30, 2002.
In July 2003, BancFirst Corporation entered into an agreement to acquire Lincoln National Bancorporation (“Lincoln”) of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma for cash of approximately $18.5 million. Lincoln has consolidated total assets of approximately $117 million. As a result of the acquisition, Lincoln will be merged into BancFirst Corporation, and Lincoln’s wholly-owned bank subsidiary, Lincoln National Bank, will become a subsidiary of BancFirst Corporation. The acquisition will be accounted for as a purchase. Accordingly, the effects of the acquisition will be included in the Company’ consolidated financial statements from the date of the acquisition forward. The acquisition is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2003 and will not have a material effect on the results of operations of the Company.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Second Quarter
Net interest income for the second quarter of 2003 remained stable compared to the prior year at $27.0 million. The net interest margin decreased to 4.21% from 4.50% for the second quarter of 2002. Earning asset growth, primarily in loans, produced volume and mix variances that helped to offset a negative rate variance, keeping net interest income at about the same level as the prior year. In the current low interest rate environment, the value of the Company’s noninterest-bearing deposits is reduced, causing a decrease in the Company’s net interest margin. Assuming no change in this rate environment, or in the volume or mix of the Company’s loans and deposits, the Company’s net interest income would reasonably be expected to decline over the next several quarters. Also, in the second quarter of 2003, the Company adjusted its interest rate sensitivity by selling $71.2 million of securities and reinvesting the proceeds in shorter-term securities, and by retiring $25.1 million of long-term fixed-rate debt. As a result of this and other changes, the Company’s one-year negative interest sensitivity gap decreased to $(589,424) at June 30, 2003 from $(689,008) at December 31, 2003 and $(718,374) at June 30, 2002. This adjustment in interest rate sensitivity may be expected to reduce net interest income in the near term, but the lower one-year negative gap better positions the Company for the possibility of rising interest rates, while the reduction in long-term borrowings better positions the Company for a continued low interest rate environment.
The Company provided $1.06 million for loan losses in the second quarter of 2003, compared to $1.4 million for the same period of 2002. Net loan charge-offs were $752,000 for the second quarter of 2003, compared to $724,000 for the second quarter of 2002. The net charge-offs represent an annualized rate of 0.17% of average total loans for the second quarter of both 2003 and 2002.
Noninterest income increased $2.56 million compared to the second quarter of 2002, due primarily to gains from the sales of securities pursuant to the adjustment of the Company’s interest sensitivity. Noninterest income excluding securities gains increased $95,000. Trust revenue and gains on sales of loans increased, while other noninterest income decreased. Noninterest expense increased $2.58 million compared to the second quarter of 2002, due primarily to the
13
loss on early extinguishment of debt pursuant to the adjustment of the Company’s interest sensitivity. Noninterest expense excluding this loss increased $155,000, mainly in salaries and employee benefits. Income tax expense increased $556,000 compared to the second quarter of 2002. The effective tax rate on income before taxes was 35.88%, compared to 32.08% in the second quarter of 2002. The Company’s effective tax rate in 2003 has increased due to lower levels of tax exempt income and tax credits.
Year-To-Date
Net interest income for the first six months of 2003 remained stable compared to the prior year at $53.8 million. The net interest margin decreased to 4.27% from 4.47% for the first six months of 2002. Earning asset growth, primarily in loans, produced volume and mix variances that helped to offset a negative rate variance, keeping net interest income at about the same level as the prior year. As discussed for the second quarter above, the Company’s net interest income would reasonably be expected to decline over the next several quarters. Also, the adjustment to the Company’s interest sensitivity in the second quarter may be expected to reduce net interest income in the near term, but better positions the Company for the possibility of rising interest rates.
The Company provided $1.85 million for loan losses in the first six months of 2003, compared to $2.36 million for the same period of 2002. Net loan charge-offs were $1.21 million for the first six months of 2003, compared to $2.16 million for the first six months of 2002. The net charge-offs represent annualized rates of 0.13% and 0.25% of average total loans for the first half of 2003 and 2002, respectively.
Noninterest income increased $4.31 million compared to the first six months of 2002, due primarily to gains from the sales of securities pursuant to the adjustment of the Company’s interest sensitivity. Noninterest income excluding securities gains increased $1.23 million. Trust revenue, service charges on deposits and gains on sales of loans increased, while other noninterest income decreased. Noninterest expense increased $3.54 million compared to the first six months of 2002, due primarily to the loss on early extinguishment of debt pursuant to the adjustment of the Company’s interest sensitivity in the second quarter of 2003 and an operational loss of $1.18 million recognized in the first quarter of 2003. Noninterest expense excluding these losses decreased $66,000. Income tax expense increased $834,000 compared to the first six months of 2002. The effective tax rate on income before taxes was 35.23%, up from 33.55% in the first half of 2002. The Company’s effective tax rate in 2003 has increased due to lower levels of tax exempt income and tax credits.
FINANCIAL POSITION
Cash and due from banks, interest-bearing deposits with banks, and federal funds sold increased a combined total of $98.8 million from December 31, 2002, and $133 million from June 30, 2002. These increases were mainly from growth in deposits.
Total securities decreased $34.6 million compared to December 31, 2002 and $36.8 million compared to June 30, 2002. The size of the Company’s securities portfolio is a function of liquidity management and excess funds available for investment. The Company has maintained a very liquid securities portfolio to provide funds for loan growth. The net unrealized gain on securities available for sale, before taxes, was $23.7 million at the end of the second quarter of 2003, compared to a gain of $24.3 million at December 31, 2002 and a gain of $15.7 million at June 30, 2002. The average taxable equivalent yield on the securities portfolio for the second quarter decreased to 4.61% from 5.54% for the same quarter of 2002.
Total loans decreased $17.5 million from December 31, 2002, and increased $36.2 million from June 30, 2002. The allowance for loan losses increased $637,000 from year-end 2002 and $274,000 from the second quarter of 2002. The allowance as a percentage of total loans was 1.39%, 1.34% and 1.40% at June 30, 2003, December 31, 2002 and June 30, 2002, respectively. The allowance to nonperforming and restructured loans at the same dates was 158.45%, 175.16% and 158.39%, respectively.
Nonperforming and restructured loans totaled $15.8 million at June 30, 2003, compared to $13.9 million at December 31, 2002 and $15.6 million at June 30, 2002. The ratio of nonperforming and restructured loans to total loans for the same periods was 0.88%, 0.77% and 0.89%, respectively. The level of nonperforming loans and loan losses may rise over time as a result of economic and credit cycles.
14
Total deposits increased $73.7 million compared to December 31, 2002, and $135 million compared to June 30, 2002 due to internal growth. The Company’s deposit base continues to be comprised substantially of core deposits, with large denomination certificates of deposit being only 9% of total deposits at June 30, 2003, compared to 10.4% at December 31, 2002 and 11.9% at June 30, 2002.
Short-term borrowings increased $4.35 million from December 31, 2002, and decreased $153,000 from June 30, 2002. Fluctuations in short-term borrowings are a function of federal funds purchased from correspondent banks, customer demand for repurchase agreements and liquidity needs of the bank.
Long-term borrowings decreased $20.7 million from year-end 2002 and $19.4 million from the second quarter of 2002, due to the early retirement of $25.1 million Federal Home Loan Bank advances as a part of the Company’s adjustment to its interest sensitivity in the second quarter of 2003. The Company uses these borrowings primarily to match-fund long-term fixed-rate loans.
Stockholders’ equity decreased $2.19 million from year-end 2002 due to the stock repurchase in the first quarter of 2003. Compared to June 30, 2002, stockholders’ equity increased $18 million due to accumulated earnings and unrealized gains on securities. Average stockholders’ equity to average assets for the first six months of 2003 was 8.8%, compared to 8.27% for the first six months of 2002. The Company’s leverage ratio and total risk-based capital ratio were 8.47% and 13.05%, respectively, at June 30, 2003, well in excess of the regulatory minimums.

There have been no significant changes in the Registrants disclosures regarding market risk since December 31, 2002, the date of its annual report to stockholders.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of a date within 90 days of the filing date of this report. Based on their evaluation they concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures of the Company are adequate to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports filed or submitted by it under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the applicable rules and forms. There have been no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect disclosure controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation.
The Company has engaged a public accounting firm to conduct a review of its internal controls, disclosure controls and procedures, and its evaluation procedures, including its internal audit function. This firm will also assist management with future evaluations of the Company’s internal controls, financial reporting processes and disclosure controls and procedures as required by Sections 302 and 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and by the FDIC Improvement Act. The preliminary review of internal controls has not been completed as of the filing of this report. When the review is completed, the public accounting firm may make recommendations which could result in significant changes in the Company’s internal controls or disclosure controls and procedures.
