Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Accounting and Consolidation The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of First Mid-Illinois Bancshares, Inc. ("Company") and its wholly-owned s Mid-Illinois Data Services, Inc. ("MIDS") and First Mid-Illinois Bank & Trust, N.A. ("First Mid Bank") and its wholly-owned subsidiary First Mid-Illinois Insurance Services, Inc. ("First Mid Insurance"). All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The financial information reflects all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present a fair statement of the results of the interim periods ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, and all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of the interim period ended March 31, 2001, are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the year ending December 31, 2001. The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X and do not include all of the information required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements and related footnote disclosures. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's 2000 Form 10-K. Accounting Changes In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 133"). SFAS 133 standardizes the accounting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts. Under the standard, entities are required to carry all derivative instruments in the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for the changes in fair value of a derivative instrument depends on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship and, if so, on the reason for holding it. The gain or loss due to changes in fair value is recognized in earnings or as other comprehensive income in the statement of stockholders' equity, depending on the type of instrument and whether or not it is considered a hedge. In June 1999, the FASB issued SFAS 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - Deferral of the effective date of Statement No. 133." This statement defers the adoption of SFAS 133 to fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. The FASB issued SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities -- an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133" in June 2000, which addresses various implementation issues relating to SFAS 133. Adoption of the above Statements on January 1, 2001, did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operation or liquidity. 5
Comprehensive Income The Company's comprehensive income for the three month periods ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 is as follows: Three months ended March 31, ------------------- (In thousands) 2001 2000 --------- --------- Net income $1,465 $1,430 Other comprehensive income: Unrealized gain (loss) during the period 1,909 (85) Less: realized gain during the period (58) -- Tax effect (717) 33 --------- --------- Comprehensive income $2,599 $1,378 --------- --------- Earnings Per Share Income for basic earnings per share ("EPS") is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed by using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding increased by the assumed conversion of the Company's stock options. The components of basic and diluted earnings per common share for the three month periods ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 are as follows: Three months ended March 31, ---------------------- 2001 2000 ----------- ---------- Basic Earnings per Share: Net income $1,465,000 $1,430,000 Weighted average common shares outstanding 2,251,576 2,277,737 ----------- ---------- Basic earnings per common share $ .65 $ .63 ----------- ---------- Diluted Earnings per Share: Weighted average common shares outstanding 2,251,576 2,277,737 Assumed conversion of stock options 6,059 4,541 ----------- ---------- Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding 2,257,635 2,282,278 ----------- ---------- Diluted earnings per common share $ .65 $ .63 ----------- ---------- Mergers and Acquisitions On April 20, 2001, First Mid Bank acquired all outstanding stock of American Bank of Illinois located in Highland, Illinois, for $3.7 million in cash. This acquisition added approximately $30.8 million to total deposits, $24.9 million to loans, $2 million to securities, $1.7 million to premises and equipment and $1.4 million to intangible assets. The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting whereby the acquired assets and liabilities were recorded at fair values as of the acquisition date. 6
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion and analysis is intended to provide a better understanding of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries for the periods ended March 31, 2001 and 2000. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements, related notes and selected financial data appearing elsewhere in this report. Forward-Looking Statements This report contains certain 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, such as, discussions of the Company's pricing and fee trends, credit quality and outlook, liquidity, new business results, expansion plans, anticipated expenses and planned schedules. The Company intends such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and is including this statement for purposes of these safe harbor provisions. Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe future plans, strategies and expectations of the Company, are identified by use of the words "believe," "expect," "intend," "anticipate," "estimate," "project," or similar expressions. Actual results could differ materially from the results indicated by these statements because the realization of those results is subject to many uncertainties including: changes in interest rates, general economic conditions, legislative/regulatory changes, monetary and fiscal policies of the U.S. Government, including policies of the U.S. Treasury and the Federal Reserve Board, the quality or composition of the loan or investment portfolios, demand for loan products, deposit flows, competition, demand for financial services in the Company's market area and accounting principles, policies and guidelines. These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. Further information concerning the Company and its business, including additional factors that could materially affect the Company's financial results, is included in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Overview Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2001 was $1,465,000 ($.65 diluted EPS), an increase of $35,000 from $1,430,000 ($.63 diluted EPS) for the same period in 2000. A summary of the factors which contributed to the change in net income for the three months is shown in the table below. 2001 vs 2000 (In thousands) Three months -------------- Net interest income $ (56) Other income, including securities transactions 386 Other expenses 269 Income taxes 26 -------------- Increase in net income $ 35 -------------- 7
The following table shows the Company's annualized performance ratios for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, as compared to the performance ratios for the year ended December 31, 2000: March 31, March 31, December 31, 2001 2000 2000 ------------- -------------- ------------- Return on average assets .93% .96% .92% Return on average equity 9.91% 11.13% 10.55% Return on average common equity 9.91% 11.03% 10.55% Average equity to average assets 9.37% 8.66% 8.70% Results of Operations Net Interest Income The largest source of operating revenue for the Company is net interest income. Net interest income represents the difference between total interest income earned on earning assets and total interest expense paid on interest- bearing liabilities. The amount of interest income is dependent upon many factors, including the volume and mix of earning assets, the general level of interest rates and the dynamics of changes in interest rates. The cost of funds necessary to support earning assets varies with the volume and mix of interest- bearing liabilities and the rates paid to attract and retain such funds. For purposes of the following discussion and analysis, the interest earned on tax-exempt securities is adjusted to an amount comparable to interest subject to income taxes at 34%. The adjustment is referred to as the tax-equivalent ("TE") adjustment. The Company's average balances, interest income and expense and rates earned or paid for major balance sheet categories are set forth in the following table (dollars in thousands): 8

(2) Loan fees are included in interest income and are not material. (3) Nonaccrual loans have been included in the average balances. Changes in net interest income may also be analyzed by segregating the volume and rate components of interest income and interest expense. The following table summarizes the approximate relative contribution of changes in average volume and interest rates to changes in net interest income (TE) for the three months ended March 31, 2001, as compared to the same period in 2000 (in thousands): 9
For the three months ended March 31, 2001 compared to 2000 Increase / (Decrease) ------------------------------------------ Total Rate/ Change Volume Rate Volume (4) ------------------------------------------ Earning Assets: Interest-bearing deposits $ -- $ -- $ -- $ -- Federal funds sold (3) (1) (2) -- Investment securities: Taxable (56) (28) (29) 1 Tax-exempt (1) (17) 17 (33) (1) Loans (2)(3) 850 780 64 6 ------------------------------------------ Total interest income 774 768 -- 6 ------------------------------------------ Interest-Bearing Liabilities: Interest-bearing deposits Demand deposits 94 16 77 1 Savings deposits (18) (22) 4 -- Time deposits 743 308 392 43 Securities sold under agreements to repurchase 3 2 1 -- FHLB advances 45 33 11 1 Federal funds purchased (30) (30) (1) 1 Long-term debt (1) -- (1) -- ------------------------------------------ Total interest expense 836 307 483 46 ------------------------------------------ Net interest income $ (62) $ 461 $ (483) $ (40) ------------------------------------------ (1) Interest income and rates are presented on a tax-equivalent basis, assuming a federal income tax rate of 34%. (2) Loan fees are included in interest income and are not material. (3) Nonaccrual loans are not material and have been included in the average balances. (4) The changes in rate/volume are computed on a consistent basis by multiplying the change in rates with the change in volume. On an tax equivalent basis, net interest income decreased $62,000, or 1.1% to $5,624,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001, from $5,686,000 for the same period in 2000. The decrease in net interest income was primarily due to an increase in rates on interest bearing liabilities greater than the increase in rates on interest earning assets. For the three months ended March 31, 2001, average earning assets increased by $36,501,000, or 6.6%, and average interest-bearing liabilities increased $23,352,000, or 4.9%, compared with average balances for the three months ended March 31, 2000. Changes in average balances, as a percent of average earnings assets, are shown below: o average loans (as a percent of average earnings assets) increased 2.0% to 73.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2001 from 71.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2000. o average securities (as a percent of average earnings assets) decreased 1.9% to 26.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2001 from 27.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2000. o net interest margin, on a tax equivalent basis, decreased to 3.87% for the three months ended March 31, 2001, from 4.18% for the three months ended March 31, 2000. 10
Provision for Loan Losses The provision for loan losses for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 was $150,000. For information on loan loss experience and nonperforming loans, see the "Nonperforming Loans" and "Loan Quality and Allowance for Loan Losses" sections later in this document. Other Income An important source of the Company's revenue is derived from other income. The following table sets forth the major components of other income for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 (in thousands): Three months ended 2001 2000 $ change ---------- --------- ---------- Trust $ 500 $ 513 $ (13) Brokerage 97 137 (40) Service charges 717 592 125 Security gains 58 -- 58 Mortgage banking 178 62 116 Other 446 306 140 ---------- --------- ---------- Total other income $ 1,996 $ 1,610 $ 386 ---------- --------- ---------- o Total non-interest income increased to $1,996,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001, compared to $1,610,000 for the same period in 2000. o Trust revenues decreased $13,000 or 2.5% to $500,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001, compared to $513,000 for the same period in 2000. o Trust assets, reported at market value, were $290 million at March 31, 2001, $303 million at December 31, 2000 and $330 million at March 31, 2000. o Revenues from brokerage and annuity sales decreased $40,000 or 29.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2001, compared with the same period in 2000, as a result of decreased sales of annuities. o Fees from service charges increased $125,000 or 21.1% to $717,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001, compared to $592,000 for the same period in 2000. This increase was primarily due to an increase in the number of savings and transaction accounts and an increase in the fees charged on deposit accounts. o Sales of securities resulted in a net gain of $58,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 as compared with no net gain or loss for the same period in 2000. o Mortgage banking income increased $116,000 or 187.1% to $178,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001, compared to $62,000 for the same period in 2000. This increase was due to a higher number of fixed rate loans originated and sold by First Mid Bank as a result of falling interest r Loans sold balances are as follows: o $8.3 million (representing 97 loans) for the three months ended March 31, 2001. o $3.0 million (representing 41 loans) for the three months ended March 31, 2000. o Other income increased $140,000 or 45.7% to $446,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001, compared to $306,000 for the same period in 2000. This increase is partially due to additional income received for credit life insurance sales. 11
Other Expense The major categories of other expense include salaries and employee benefits, occupancy and equipment expenses and other operating expenses associated with day-to-day operations. The following table sets forth the major components of other expense for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 (in thousands): Three months ended 2001 2000 $ change --------- --------- --------- Salaries and benefits $ 2,552 $ 2,510 $ 42 Occupancy and equipment 951 878 73 FDIC premiums 24 26 (2) Amortization of intangibles 294 302 (8) Stationery and supplies 156 148 8 Legal and professional fees 235 170 65 Marketing and promotion 158 157 1 Other operating expenses 819 731 88 --------- --------- --------- Total other expense $ 5,165 $ 4,896 $ 269 --------- --------- --------- o Salaries and employee benefits, the largest component of other expense, increased $42,000 or 1.7% to $2,552,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001, compared to $2,510,000 for the same period in 2000. This increase can be explained by merit increases for continuing employees. o There were 274.5 FTE employees at March 31, 2001 compared to 272 at March 31, 2000. o Occupancy and equipment expense increased $73,000 or 8.3% to $951,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001, compared to $878,000 for the same period in 2000. This increase included depreciation expense recorded on assets placed in service during the year as well as an increase in utilities expense for all buildings. o Amortization of intangible assets decreased $8,000 or 2.6% to $294,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001, compared to $302,000 for the same period in 2000. o All other categories of operating expenses increased a net of $162,000 or 13.4% to $1,368,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001, compared to $1,206,000 for the same period in 2000. This increase is primarily due to higher expense for office supplies and printing forms associated with the purchase of American Bank of Illinois. Income Taxes Total income tax expense amounted to $659,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001, compared to $633,000 for the same period in 2000. Effective tax rates were 31.0% and 30.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000. Analysis of Balance Sheets Loans The loan portfolio is the largest category of the Company's earning assets. The following table summarizes the composition of the loan portfolio as of March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000 (in thousands): 12
March 31, December 31, 2001 2000 -------------------------- Real estate - residential $134,461 $140,842 Real estate - agriculture 36,677 33,689 Real estate - commercial 126,413 124,721 -------------------------- Total real estate - mortgage $297,551 $299,252 Commercial and agricultural 96,835 100,201 Installment 28,403 28,674 Other 1,049 1,161 -------------------------- Total loans $423,838 $429,288 -------------------------- At March 31, 2001, the Company had loan concentrations in agricultural industries of $69.0 million, or 16.3%, of outstanding loans and $67.9 million, or 15.8%, at December 31, 2000. The Company had no further industry loan concentrations in excess of 10% of outstanding loans. Real estate mortgage loans have averaged approximately 70% of the Company's total loan portfolio for the past several years. This is the result of a strong local housing market and the Company's historical focus on residential real estate lending. The balance of real estate loans held for sale amounted to $2,182,000 and $587,000 as of March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000, respectively. The following table presents the balance of loans outstanding as of March 31, 2001, by maturities (dollars in thousands): Maturity (1) -------------------------------------------- Over 1 One year through Over or less (2) 5 years 5 years Total -------------------------------------------- Real estate - residential $ 31,348 $ 84,655 $ 18,458 $134,461 Real estate - agriculture 5,632 25,624 5,421 36,677 Real estate - commercial 29,684 90,184 6,545 126,413 -------------------------------------------- Total real estate - mortgage $ 66,664 $200,463 $ 30,424 $297,551 Commercial and agricultural 60,075 34,856 1,904 96,835 Installment 5,436 21,041 1,926 28,403 Other 214 280 555 1,049 -------------------------------------------- Total loans $132,389 $256,640 $ 34,809 $423,838 -------------------------------------------- (1) Based on scheduled principal repayments. (2) Includes demand loans, past due loans and overdrafts. As of March 31, 2001, loans with maturities over one year consisted of approximately $257,824,000 in fixed rate loans and $33,625,000 in variable rate loans. The loan maturities noted above are based on the contractual provisions of the individual loans. Rollovers and borrower requests are handled on a case-by- case basis. Nonperforming Loans Nonperforming loans include: (a) loans accounted for on a nonaccrual basis; (b) accruing loans contractually past due ninety days or more as to interest or principal payments; and loans not included in (a) and (b) above which are defined as "renegotiated loans". 13
The following table presents information concerning the aggregate amount of nonperforming loans at March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000 (in thousands): March 31, December 31, 2001 2000 ------------------------- Nonaccrual loans $3,767 $2,982 Loans past due ninety days or more and still accruing -- 245 Renegotiated loans which are performing in accordance with revised terms 204 232 ------------------------- Total Nonperforming Loans $3,971 $3,459 ------------------------- Interest income that would have been reported if nonaccrual and renegotiated loans had been performing totaled $117,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and $154,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000. Interest income that was included in income totaled $4,000 and $20,000 for the same periods. The Company's policy generally is to discontinue the accrual of interest income on any loan for which principal or interest is ninety days past due. Nonaccrual loans are returned to accrual status when, in the opinion of management, the financial position of the borrower indicates there is no longer any reasonable doubt as to the timely collection of interest or principal. Loan Quality and Allowance for Loan Losses The allowance for loan losses represents management's best estimate of the reserve necessary to adequately cover probable losses in the loan portfolio. The provision for loan losses is the charge against current earnings that is determined by management as the amount needed to maintain an adequate allowance for loan losses. In determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, and therefore the provision to be charged to current earnings, management relies predominantly on a disciplined credit review and approval process which extends to the full range of the Company's credit exposure. The review process is directed by overall lending policy and is intended to identify, at the earliest possible stage, borrowers who might be facing financial difficulty. Once identified, the magnitude of exposure to individual borrowers is quantified in the form of specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses. Collateral values are considered by management in the determination of such specific allocations. Additional factors considered by management in evaluating the overall adequacy of the allowance include historical net loan losses, the level and composition of nonaccrual, past due and renegotiated loans and the current economic conditions in the region where the Company operates. Management recognizes that there are risk factors which are inherent in the Company's loan portfolio. All financial institutions face risk factors in their loan portfolios because risk exposure is a function of the business. The Company's operations (and therefore its loans) are concentrated in east central Illinois, an area where agriculture is the dominant industry. Accordingly, lending and other business relationships with agriculture-based businesses are critical to the Company's success. At March 31, 2001 the Company's loan portfolio included $69.0 million of loans to borrowers whose businesses are directly related to agriculture. The balance remained stable from $67.9 million at December 31, 2000. While the Company adheres to sound underwriting practices including collateralization of loans, an extended period of low commodity prices and/or significantly reduced yields on crops could nevertheless result in an increase in the level of problem agriculture loans. 14
Analysis of the allowance for loan losses as of March 31, 2001 and 2000, and of changes in the allowance for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, is as as follows (dollars in thousands): March 31, 2001 2000 -------------------------- Average loans outstanding, net of unearned income $427,476 $390,042 Allowance-beginning of period $ 3,262 $ 2,939 Charge-offs: Real estate-mortgage -- 5 Commercial, financial & agricultural 4 -- Installment 24 27 -------------------------- Total charge-offs 28 32 Recoveries: Real estate-mortgage -- 1 Commercial, financial & agricultural 6 5 Installment 13 6 -------------------------- Total recoveries 19 12 -------------------------- Net charge-offs 5 20 -------------------------- Provision for loan losses 150 150 -------------------------- Allowance-end of period $ 3,403 $ 3,069 -------------------------- Ratio of net charge-offs to average loans .001% .005% -------------------------- Ratio of allowance for loan losses to loans outstanding (less unearned interest at end of period) .80% .77% -------------------------- Ratio of allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans 85.7% 102.6% -------------------------- The Company minimizes credit risk by adhering to sound underwriting and credit review policies. These policies are reviewed at least annually, and changes are approved by the board of directors. Senior management is actively involved in business development efforts and the maintenance and monitoring of credit underwriting and approval. The loan review system and controls are designed to identify, monitor and address asset quality problems in an accurate and timely manner. On a monthly basis, the board of directors reviews the status of problem loans. In addition to internal policies and controls, regulatory authorities periodically review asset quality and the overall adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. 15
Securities The Company's overall investment goal is to maximize earnings while maintaining liquidity in securities having minimal credit risk. The types and maturities of securities purchased are primarily based on the Company's current and projected liquidity and interest rate sensitivity positions. The following table sets forth the amortized cost of the securities as of March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000 (in thousands): March 31, December 31, 2001 2000 ------------------ ------------------- % of % of Amount Total Amount Total ---------- ------- ---------- -------- U.S. Treasury securities and obligations of U.S. government corporations and agencies $ 85,538 56% $ 89,202 58% Obligations of states and political subdivisions 30,487 20% 30,434 20% Mortgage-backed securities 27,859 18% 27,750 18% Other securities 8,888 6% 5,873 4% ---------- ------- ---------- -------- Total securities $152,772 100% $153,259 100% ---------- ------- ---------- -------- At March 31, 2001, the Company's investment portfolio showed an increase in other securities and a decrease in U.S. Treasury securities and obligations of U.S. government corporations and agencies.

The weighted average yields are calculated on the basis of the amortized cost and effective yields weighted for the scheduled maturity of each security. Full tax- equivalent yields have been calculated using a 34% tax rate. With the exception of obligations of the U.S. Treasury and other U.S. Government agencies and corporations, there were no investment securities of any single issuer the book value of which exceeded 10% of stockholders' equity at March 31, 2001. Investment securities carried at approximately $134,248,000 and $131,654,000 at March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000, respectively, were pledged to secure public deposits and repurchase agreements and for other purposes as permitted or required by law. Deposits Funding of the Company's assets is substantially provided by a combination of consumer, commercial and public fund deposits. The Company continues to focus its strategies and emphasis on retail core deposits, the major component of funding sources. The following table sets forth the average deposits and weighted average rates for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and for the year ended December 31, 2000 (dollars in thousands): March 31, December 31, 2001 2000 ------------------------------------------ Weighted Weighted Average Average Amount Rate Amount Rate ------------------------------------------ Demand deposits: Non-interest bearing $ 62,358 -- $ 62,579 -- Interest bearing 162,805 3.04% 163,531 3.13% Savings 36,999 2.38% 39,215 2.43% Time deposits 248,737 5.78% 226,259 5.42% ------------------------------------------ Total average deposits $510,899 3.96% $491,584 3.73% ------------------------------------------ The following table sets forth the maturity of time deposits of $100,000 or more at March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000 (in thousands): March 31, December 31, 2001 2000 -------------------------- 3 months or less $ 26,355 $ 15,413 Over 3 through 6 months 17,787 20,283 Over 6 through 12 months 19,038 18,663 Over 12 months 6,444 8,558 -------------------------- Total $ 69,624 $ 62,922 -------------------------- Other Borrowings Other borrowings consist of securities sold under agreements to repurchase, Federal Home Loan Bank advances, and federal funds purchased.

First Mid Bank collateralizes these obligations with certain government securities which are direct obligations of the United States or one of its agencies. First Mid Bank offers these retail repurchase agreements as a cash management service to its corporate customers. Federal Home Loan Bank advances represent borrowings by First Mid Bank to economically fund loan demand. This loan demand was previously funded primarily through deposits by the State of Illinois. The fixed term advances consists of $23.3 million which First Mid is using to fund agricultural loans: o $5 million advance at 6.16% with a 5-year maturity, due 03/20/05 o $2.3 million advance at 6.10% with a 5-year maturity, due 04/07/05 o $5 million advance at 6.12% with a 5-year maturity, due 09/06/05 o $3 million advance at 6.58% with a 2-year maturity, due 10/10/02 o $5 million advance at 6.00% with a 5-year maturity, due 12/14/05 o $3 million advance at 5.98% with a 10-year maturity, due 03/01/11 Interest Rate Sensitivity The Company seeks to maximize its net interest margin within an acceptable level of interest rate risk. Interest rate risk can be defined as the amount of forecasted net interest income that may be gained or lost due to favorable or unfavorable movements in interest rates. Interest rate risk, or sensitivity, arises when the maturity or repricing characteristics of assets differ significantly from the maturity or repricing characteristics of liabilities. 19
The Company monitors its interest rate sensitivity position to maintain a balance between rate sensitive assets and rate sensitive liabilities. This balance serves to limit the adverse effects of changes in interest rates. The Company's asset/liability management committee oversees the interest rate sensitivity position and directs the overall allocation of funds. In the banking industry, a traditional measurement of interest rate sensitivity is known as a "GAP" analysis, which measures the cumulative differences between the amounts of assets and liabilities maturing or repricing at various intervals. The following table sets forth the Company's interest rate repricing gaps for selected maturity periods at March 31, 2001 (in thousands): <TABLE> <CAPTION> Number of Months Until Next Repricing Opportunity 0-1 1-3 3-6 6-12 12+ ---------- ----------- ---------- ----------- ---------- <S> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C> Interest earning assets: Federal funds sold $ 8,975 $ -- $ -- $ -- $ -- Taxable investment securities 26,161 19,536 12,830 4,388 60,358 Nontaxable investment 30 935 140 1,928 27,893 securities Loans 67,095 22,711 29,052 65,740 239,239 ---------- ----------- ---------- ----------- ---------- Total $102,261 $ 43,182 $ 42,022 $ 72,056 $ 327,490 ---------- ----------- ---------- ----------- ---------- Interest bearing liabilities: Savings and N.O.W. accounts 150,771 -- -- -- -- Money market accounts 52,867 -- -- -- -- Other time deposits 32,694 32,653 53,381 79,257 51,951 Other borrowings 25,361 -- -- -- 23,345 Long-term debt 4,325 -- -- -- -- ---------- ----------- ---------- ----------- ---------- Total $ 266,017 $ 32,653 $ 53,381 $ 79,257 $ 75,296 ---------- ----------- ---------- ----------- ---------- Periodic GAP $(163,756) $ 10,529 $(11,359) $ (7,201) $252,195 ---------- ----------- ---------- ----------- ---------- Cumulative GAP $(163,756) $(153,227) $(164,586) $(171,786) $ 80,408 ---------- ----------- ---------- ----------- ---------- GAP as a % of interest earning assets: Periodic (27.9%) 1.8% (1.9%) (1.2%) 43.0% Cumulative (27.9%) (26.1%) (28.0%) (29.3%) 13.7% ---------- ----------- ---------- ----------- ---------- </TABLE> At March 31, 2001, the Company was liability sensitive on a cumulative basis through the twelve-month time horizon. Accordingly, future increases in interest rates, if any, could have an unfavorable effect on net interest margin. The Company's ability to lag the market in repricing deposits in a rising interest rate environment eases the implied liability sensitivity of the Company. Interest rate sensitivity using a static GAP analysis basis is only one of several measurements of the impact of interest rate changes on net interest income used by the Company. Its actual usefulness in assessing the effect of changes in interest rates varies with the constant changes which occur in the composition of the Company's earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. For this reason, the Company uses financial models to project interest income under various rate scenarios and assumptions relative to the prepayments, reinvestment and rollovers of assets and liabilities, of which First Mid Bank represents substantially all of the Company's rate sensitive assets and liabilities. Capital Resources At March 31, 2001, the Company's stockholders' equity increased $2,833,000 or 4.9% to $60,560,000 from $57,727,000 as of December 31, 2000. During the first three months of 2001, net income contributed $1,465,000 to equity before the payment of dividends to common stockholders. The change in net unrealized gain/loss on available-for-sale investment securities increased stockholders' equity by $1,134,00, net of tax. 20
The Company is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Bank holding companies follow minimum regulatory requirements established by the Federal Reserve Board, and First Mid Bank follows similar minimum regulatory requirements established for national banks by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary action by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company's financial statements. Quantitative measures established by each regulatory agency to ensure capital adequacy require the reporting institutions to maintain a minimum total risk-based capital ratio of 8% and a minimum leverage ratio of 3% for the most highly-rated banks that do not expect significant growth. All other institutions are required to maintain a minimum leverage ratio of 4%. Management believes that, as of March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000, all capital adequacy requirements have been met by the Company and First Mid Bank. As of March 31, 2001, the most recent notification from the primary regulator categorized First Mid Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based and Tier 1 leverage ratios must be maintained as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed this category. <TABLE> <CAPTION> To Be Well Capitalized Under For Capital Prompt Corrective Actual Adequacy Purposes Action Provisions ------------------- ------------------- ------------------- Amount Ratio Amount Ratio Amount Ratio --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- March 31, 2001 <S> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C> Total Capital (to risk-weighted assets) Company $ 51,261 12.45% $ 32,950 > 8.00% N/A N/A First Mid Bank 52,243 12.76% 32,764 > 8.00% $ 40,955 > 10.00% Tier 1 Capital (to risk-weighted assets) Company 47,858 11.62% 16,475 > 4.00% N/A N/A First Mid Bank 48,840 11.93% 16,382 > 4.00% 24,573 > 6.00% Tier 1 Capital (to average assets) Company 47,858 7.73% 24,751 > 4.00% N/A N/A First Mid Bank 48,840 7.92% 24,654 > 4.00% 30,817 > 5.00% --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- </TABLE> 21

These ratios are in excess of regulatory minimums and will allow the Company to operate without capital adequacy concerns. Stock Plans The Company has four plans through which Company stock may be purchased by participants, the Deferred Compensation Plan, the First Retirement and Savings Plan, the Dividend Reinvestment Plan, and the Stock Incentive Plan. For more detailed information on these plans, refer to the Company's 2000 Form 10-K. On August 5, 1998, the Company announced a stock repurchase program of up to 3% of its common stock. During 2000, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized the repurchase of 5% in addition to the original 3% of its common stock under the current stock repurchase program. The shares will be repurchased at the most recent market price of the stock. The Company repurchased 8,197 shares (.34%) at a total price of $258,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 60,169 shares (2.74%) at a total price of $1,881,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000. A total of 91,601 shares have been repurchased from the inception of this program to March 31, 2001, and are held in treasury. Liquidity Liquidity represents the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to meet the requirements of customers for loans and deposit withdrawals. Liquidity management focuses on the ability to obtain funds economically for these purposes and to maintain assets which may be converted into cash at minimal costs. Other sources for cash include deposits of the State of Illinois, brokered deposits, and Federal Home Loan Bank advances. At March 31, 2001, the excess collateral at the Federal Home Loan Bank will support approximately $60 million of additional advances. Management monitors its expected liquidity requirements carefully, focusing primarily on cash flows from: o lending activities, including loan commitments, letters of credit and mortgage prepayment assumptions. o deposit activities, including seasonal demand of private and public funds. o investing activities, including prepayments of mortgage-backed securities and call provisions on U.S. Government Treasuries and Agencies. o operating activities, including scheduled debt repayments and dividends to shareholders. 22
As of March 31, 2001, the Company believes it will have sufficient funds to meet obligations such as loan commitments and anticipated stock repurchases. Effects of Inflation Unlike industrial companies, virtually all of the assets and liabilities of the Company are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a more significant impact on the Company's performance than the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or experience the same magnitude of changes as goods and services, since such prices are effected by inflation. In the current economic environment, liquidity and interest rate adjustments are features of the Company's assets and liabilities which are important to the maintenance of acceptable performance levels. The Company attempts to maintain a balance between monetary assets and monetary liabilities, over time, to offset these potential effects. Future Accounting Changes Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 140 "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities", was issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) in September of 2000. SFAS No. 140 supersedes and replaces FASB SFAS No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities". Accordingly, SFAS No. 140 is now the authoritative accounting literature for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities. SFAS No. 140 also includes several additional disclosure requirements in the area of securitized financial assets and collateral arrangements. The provisions of SFAS No. 140 related to transfers of financial assets are to be applied to all transfers of financial assets occurring after March 31, 2001. The collateral recognition and disclosure provisions in SFAS No. 140 are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2000. The Company anticipates that the adoption of SFAS No. 140 will not have a material impact on the Company's results of operations. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK There has been no material change in the market risks faced by the Company since December 31, 2000.

PART II ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS Since First Mid Bank acts a depository of funds, it is named from time to time as a defendant in lawsuits (such as garnishment proceedings) involving claims to the ownership of funds in particular accounts. Management believes that all such litigation as well as other pending legal proceedings in which the Company is involved constitute ordinary, routine litigation incidental to the business of the Company and that such litigation will not materially adversely affect the Company's consolidated financial condition. In addition to the normal proceedings referred to above, Heartland Savings Bank ("Heartland"), a subsidiary of the Company that merged with First Mid Bank during 1997, filed a complaint on December 5, 1995, against the U.S. Government which is now pending in the U.S. Court of Federal Claims in Washington D.C. This complaint relates to Heartland's interest as successor to Mattoon Federal Savings and Loan Association which incurred a significant amount of supervisory goodwill when it acquired Urbana Federal Savings and Loan in 1982. The complaint alleges that the U.S. Government breached its contractual obligations when, in 1989, it issued new rules which eliminated supervisory goodwill from inclusion in regulatory capital. On August 6, 1998, First Mid Bank filed a motion with the U.S. Court of Federal Claims to grant summary judgement on liability for breach of contract in this matter. On August 13, 1998, the U.S. Government filed a motion to stay such proceedings. At this time, it is too early to tell if First Mid Bank will prevail in its motion and, if so, what damages, if any, may be recovered. ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES None. ITEM 3.
