Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) Website The Company maintains a website at www.firstmid.com. All periodic and current reports of the Company and amendments to these reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") can be accessed, free of charge, through this website as soon as reasonably practicable after these materials are filed with the SEC. 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 subsidiaries: Mid-Illinois Data Services, Inc. ("MIDS"), The Checkley Agency, Inc. ("Checkley") 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 for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods ended September 30, 2003, and 2002, and all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of the interim period ended September 30, 2003, are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the year ending December 31, 2003. 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 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In July 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities" ("SFAS 146"). SFAS 146 requires companies to recognize costs associated with exit or disposal activities when they are incurred rather than at the date of a commitment to an exit or disposal plan. The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS 146 for exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002 on January 1, 2003, as required. The adoption did not have a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations. In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45, "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others" ("FIN 45"). This Interpretation provides guidance on disclosures to be made by a guarantor about its obligations under certain guarantees that it has issued. It also clarifies that a guarantor is required to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee. The disclosure requirements were effective for financial statement periods after December 15, 2002. The Company adopted the initial measurement and recognition provisions applicable to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002 on January 1, 2003, as required. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations. In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidated Variable Interest Entities"("FIN 46"). The objective of FIN 46 is to provide guidance on how to identify a variable interest entity and determine when the assets, liabilities, non-controlling interests, and results of operations of a variable interest in an entity need to be included in a company's consolidated financial statements. A company that holds variable interests in an entity will need to consolidate the entity if the company's interest in the variable interest entity is such that the company will absorb a majority of the variable interest entity's losses and/or receive a majority of the entity's expected residual returns, if they occur. FIN 46 also requires additional disclosures by primary beneficiaries and other significant variable interest holders. The provisions of FIN 46 must be applied to an interest held in a variable interest entity or potential variable interest entity at the end of the first interim period after December 31, 2003. The Company does not expect the provisions of FIN 46 to have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.
In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, "Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 149"). SFAS 149 amends and clarifies accounting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities under Statement 133. SFAS 149 is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003, and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations. In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity" ("SFAS 150"). SFAS 150 establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances), many of which were previously classified as equity. SFAS 150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after December 15, 2003. The Company does not expect the provisions of SFAS 150 to have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations. Comprehensive Income The Company's comprehensive income for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 was as follows (in thousands): <TABLE> <CAPTION> Three months ended Nine months ended September 30, September 30, (In thousands) 2003 2002 2003 2002 ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------- <S> <C> <C> <C> <C> Net income $2,393 $2,031 $6,877 $6,046 Other comprehensive income: Unrealized gain (loss) during the period (1,474) 1,169 (788) 3,318 Less realized gain during the period - (107) (370) (223) Tax effect 574 (411) 451 (1,199) ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------- Comprehensive income $1,493 $2,682 $6,170 $7,942 ============ ============ ============ ============= </TABLE> Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per share ("EPS") is calculated as net income divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.

Mergers and Acquisitions On January 29, 2002, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding stock of Checkley, an insurance agency headquartered in Mattoon, Illinois. Checkley was purchased for cash with a portion ($750,000) paid at closing and the remainder ($1,000,000) to be paid, pursuant to a promissory note, over a five-year period ending January 2007. Checkley operates as a separate subsidiary of the Company and provides customers with commercial property, casualty, life, auto and home insurance. In order to facilitate this acquisition, the Company became a financial holding company under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act on December 14, 2001. The results of Checkley's operations are included in the consolidated financial statements since the acquisition date. Goodwill and Intangible Assets The Company has goodwill from business combinations, intangible assets from branch acquisitions, identifiable intangible assets assigned to core deposit relationships and customer lists of insurance agencies acquired, and intangible assets arising from the rights to service mortgage loans for others. As of January 1, 2002, the date of adoption of SFAS 142 and the effective date of SFAS 147, the Company had unamortized goodwill of $9 million, which was subject to the transition provisions of SFAS 142 and SFAS 147, and is no longer being amortized. The Company also had $2.1 million of intangible assets for an acquisition of a branch whereby the liabilities assumed were greater than the assets obtained and was not considered an acquisition of a business, $1.3 million of core deposit intangibles, and $217,000 of intangible assets arising from the rights to service mortgage loans for others, all which continue to be amortized. In January 2002, the Company added an additional $1.9 million of amortizable intangibles as a result of the acquisition of Checkley. The following table presents gross carrying amount and accumulated amortization by major intangible asset class as of September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 (in thousands): <TABLE> <CAPTION> September 30, 2003 December 31, 2002 ---------------------------------- --------------------------------- Gross Gross Carrying Accumulated Carrying Accumulated Value Amortization Value Amortization ------------- -------------------- -------------- ------------------ <S> <C> <C> <C> <C> Goodwill not subject to amortization $12,794 $3,760 $12,794 $3,760 Intangibles from branch acquisition 3,015 1,307 3,015 1,157 Core deposit intangibles 2,805 2,021 2,805 1,807 Mortgage servicing rights 608 521 608 451 Customer list intangibles 1,904 317 1,904 174 ------------- -------------------- -------------- ------------------ $21,126 $7,926 $21,126 $7,349 ============= ==================== ============== ================== </TABLE> Total amortization expense for the periods ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 was as follows (in thousands): 2003 2002 ----------------- ----------------- Intangibles from branch acquisition $150 $151 Core deposit intangibles 214 228 Mortgage servicing rights 70 51 Customer list intangibles 143 127 ----------------- ----------------- $577 $557 ================= =================

Management also concluded that the remaining amounts and amortization periods were appropriate for all intangible assets. The next testing of goodwill for impairment will be as of September 30, 2004. Stock Incentive Plan The Company accounts for its Stock Incentive Plan in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, "Accounting For Stock Issued to Employees," and related interpretations. As such, compensation cost based on fair value at grant date has not been recognized for its stock options in the consolidated financial statements. As required by SFAS 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" as amended by SFAS 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation--Transition and Disclosure," the Company provides pro forma net income and pro forma earnings per share disclosures for employee stock option grants. The following table illustrates the effect on net income if the fair-value-based method had been applied. <TABLE> <CAPTION> Three months ended Nine months ended September 30, September 30, 2003 2002 2003 2002 --------------- ------------- ------------- ------------- <S> <C> <C> <C> <C> Net income, as reported $2,393 $2,031 $6,877 $6,046 Stock based compensation expense determined under fair value based method, net of related tax effect (33) (26) (101) (80) --------------- ------------- ------------- ------------- Pro forma net income $2,360 $2,005 $6,776 $5,966 =============== ============= ============= ============= Basic Earnings Per Share: As reported $.76 $.59 $ 2.17 $ 1.78 Pro forma .75 .59 2.14 1.76 Diluted Earnings Per Share: As reported $.74 $.59 $ 2.14 $ 1.77 Pro forma .73 .59 2.11 1.75 </TABLE>
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 as of, and for the periods ended, September 30, 2003 and 2002. 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' 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 September 30, 2003 was $2,393,000 ($.74 diluted EPS), an increase of $362,000 from $2,031,000 ($.59 diluted EPS) for the same period in 2002. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 was $6,877,000 ($2.14 diluted EPS), an increase of $831,000 from $6,046,000 ($1.77 diluted EPS) for the same period in 2002. A summary of the factors that contributed to the changes in net income is shown in the table below. <TABLE> <CAPTION> 2003 vs. 2002 Three months Nine months (In thousands) ended September 30 ended September 30 -------------------- ------------------- <S> <C> <C> Net interest income after provision for loan losses $ 231 $ (11) Other income, including securities transactions 440 2,186 Other expenses (68) (769) Income taxes (241) (575) -------------------- ------------------- Increase in net income $ 362 $ 831 ==================== =================== </TABLE>
The following table shows the Company's annualized performance ratios for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, as compared to the performance ratios for the year ended December 31, 2002: Nine months ended Year ended September 30, September 30, December 31, 2003 2002 2002 -------------- -------------- --------------- Return on average assets 1.19% 1.14% 1.11% Return on average equity 13.33% 11.88% 11.82% Average equity to average assets 8.93% 9.56% 9.36% Results of Operations Net Interest Income The largest source of 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 normal income taxes. The adjustment is referred to as the tax-equivalent 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): <TABLE> <CAPTION> Nine months ended Nine months ended September 30, 2003 September 30, 2002 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Average Average Average Average Balance Interest Rate Balance Interest Rate ------------------------------------------------------------------------ <S> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C> ASSETS Interest-bearing deposits $ 12,404 $ 100 1.07% $4,674 $ 57 1.63% Federal funds sold 15,383 122 1.06% 9,838 117 1.59% Investment securities Taxable 139,896 3,705 3.53% 131,452 4,587 4.65% Tax-exempt (1) 28,583 1,436 6.70% 28,928 1,502 6.92% Loans (2)(3) 519,509 24,245 6.22% 479,062 25,317 7.05% ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Total earning assets 715,775 29,608 5.52% 653,954 31,580 6.44% ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Cash and due from banks 18,519 18,304 Premises and equipment 16,717 16,464 Other assets 23,285 25,062 Allowance for loan losses (4,053) (3,785) ------------ --------------- Total assets $770,243 $709,999 ============ =============== LIABILITIES AND STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY Interest-bearing deposits Demand deposits $218,728 $ 1,428 .87% $196,577 $ 2,023 1.37% Savings deposits 57,510 245 .57% 51,213 625 1.63% Time deposits 249,499 5,876 3.14% 235,473 6,607 3.74% Securities sold under agreements to repurchase 44,158 193 .58% 31,983 257 1.07% FHLB advances 31,362 1,226 5.21% 37,440 1,419 5.05% Federal funds purchased 18 - .00% 400 6 2.00% Other debt 9,339 183 2.61% 5,243 131 3.33% ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Total interest-bearing Liabilities 610,614 9,151 2.00% 558,329 11,068 2.64% ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Non interest-bearing demand deposits 84,263 76,837 Other liabilities 6,579 6,965 Stockholders' equity 68,787 67,868 ------------ --------------- Total liabilities & equity $770,243 $709,999 ============ =============== Net interest income (TE) $20,457 $20,512 ============ =========== Net interest spread 3.52% 3.80% Impact of non-interest bearing funds .29% .38% ------------ ------------ Net yield on interest- earning assets (TE) 3.81% 4.18% ============ ============ </TABLE> (1) Interest income and rates are presented on a tax-equivalent basis ("TE") 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.
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 nine months ended September 30, 2003, as compared to the same period in 2002 (in thousands): <TABLE> <CAPTION> For the nine months ended September 30, 2003 compared to 2002 Increase / (Decrease) Total Rate/ Change Volume Rate Volume (4) -------------------------------------------------------------- <S> <C> <C> <C> <C> Earning Assets: Interest-bearing deposits $43 $ 94 $ (20) $ (31) Federal funds sold 5 66 (39) (22) Investment securities: Taxable (882) 294 (1,104) (72) Tax-exempt (1) (66) (18) (49) 1 Loans (2)(3) (1,072) 2,139 (2,982) (229) -------------------------------------------------------------- Total interest income (1,972) 2,575 (4,194) (353) -------------------------------------------------------------- Interest-Bearing Liabilities: Interest-bearing deposits Demand deposits (595) 228 (737) (86) Savings deposits (380) 77 (407) (50) Time deposits (731) 393 (1,060) (64) Securities sold under agreements to repurchase (64) 98 (118) (44) FHLB advances (193) (230) 45 (8) Federal funds purchased (6) (6) (6) 6 Other debt 52 102 (28) (22) -------------------------------------------------------------- Total interest expense (1,917) 662 (2,311) (268) -------------------------------------------------------------- Net interest income $(55) $1,913 $(1,883) $(85) ============================================================== </TABLE> (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 a tax equivalent basis, net interest income decreased $55,000, or .3% to $20,457,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003, from $20,512,000 for the same period in 2002. The decrease in net interest income was primarily due to the greater decline in loan interest rates compared to deposit rates, which resulted in a compression of the interest margin. For the nine months ended September 30, 2003, average earning assets increased by $61,821,000, or 9.5%, and average interest-bearing liabilities increased $52,285,000, or 9.4%, compared with average balances for the same period in 2002. Changes in average balances are shown below: > Average loans increased by $40.4 million or 8.4% in 2003 as compared to 2002. > Average securities increased by $8.1 million or 5.1% in 2003 as compared to 2002. > Average interest-bearing deposits increased by $42.5 million or 8.8% in 2003 as compared to 2002. > Average securities sold under agreements to repurchase increased by $12.2 million or 38.2% in 2003 as compared to 2002. > Average borrowings and other debt decreased by $2.0 million or 4.7% in 2003 as compared to 2002. > Net interest margin has decreased to 3.81% in 2003 from 4.18% in 2002.
Provision for Loan Losses The provision for loan losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 was $750,000 compared to $775,000 for the same period in 2002. The decrease in the provision was due to a decrease in net charge-offs, partially offset by an increase in non-performing loans. Net charge-offs were $204,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $578,000 during the same period in 2002. Nonperforming loans increased from $3,721,000 as of September 30, 2002 to $4,766,000 as of September 30, 2003. For information on loan loss experience and nonperforming loans, see the "Nonperforming Loans" and "Loan Quality and Allowance for Loan Losses" sections below. 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 and nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 (in thousands): <TABLE> <CAPTION> Three months ended Nine months ended September 30, September 30, 2003 2002 $ Change 2003 2002 $ Change -------------- ------------ -------------- ----------- ------------ -------------- <S> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C> Trust $499 $470 $29 $1,444 $1,398 $46 Brokerage 85 61 24 209 195 14 Insurance commissions 363 347 16 1,141 901 240 Service charges 1,165 1,092 73 3,303 2,609 694 Security gains - 107 (107) 370 223 147 Mortgage banking 673 351 322 1,755 1,054 701 Other 583 500 83 1,691 1,347 344 -------------- ------------ -------------- ----------- ------------ -------------- Total other income $3,368 $2,928 $440 $9,913 $7,727 $2,186 ============== ============ ============== =========== ============ ============== </TABLE> Explanations for the three months ended September 30, 2003 as compared to the same period in 2002: < Trust revenues increased $29,000 or 6.2% to $499,000 from $470,000. Trust assets, reported at market value, were $339 million at September 30, 2003 compared to $310 million at September 30, 2002. The increase in trust revenues was the result of new business and an increase in equity prices. < Revenues from brokerage increased $24,000 or 39.3% to $85,000 from $61,000 as a result of an increase in the number of stock transactions. < Insurance commissions increased $16,000 or 4.6% to $363,000 from $347,000. Increased sales of business property and casualty insurance has increased revenues. < Fees from service charges increased $73,000 or 6.7% to $1,165,000 from $1,092,000. This was primarily the result of increased overdraft fees after implementation of a new program called Payment Privilege in July 2002. Under Payment Privilege, overdrafts up to a limit of $500 are paid for qualifying customers in exchange for a fee. A greater number of overdrafts paid has resulted in an increase in fee income. < Mortgage banking income increased $322,000 or 91.7% to $673,000 from $351,000. This increase was due to the volume of fixed rate loans originated and sold by First Mid Bank. The increase in volume is largely attributed to the historically low level of mortgage lending rates. Loans sold balances are as follows: < $49.7 million (representing 522 loans) for the 3rd quarter of 2003. < $25.4 million (representing 260 loans) for the 3rd quarter of 2002. FirstMid Bank generally releases the servicing rights on loans sold into the secondary market. Accordingly, capitalized originated mortgage servicing rights are not material to the consolidated financial statements. < Other income increased $83,000 or 16.6% to $583,000 from $500,000. This increase was primarily due to fees from ATM usage and placement of additional ATMs late in 2002.
Explanations for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 as compared to the same period in 2002: < Trust revenues increased $46,000 or 3.3% to $1,444,000 from $1,398,000. Trust assets, reported at market value, were $339 million at September 30, 2003 compared to $310 million at September 30, 2002. The increase in trust revenues was the result of new business and an increase in equity prices. < Revenues from brokerage increased $14,000 or 7.2% to $209,000 from $195,000 as a result of an increase in the number of stock transactions. < Insurance commissions increased $240,000 or 26.6% to $1,141,000 from $901,000. The increase is due to operating Checkley, which was acquired January 29, 2002, for the entire period in 2003. In addition, increased sales of business property and casualty insurance has increased revenues. < Fees from service charges increased $694,000 or 26.6% to $3,303,000 from $2,609,000. This was primarily the result of increased overdraft fees after implementation of a new program called Payment Privilege in July 2002. Under Payment Privilege, overdrafts up to a limit of $500 are paid for qualifying customers in exchange for a fee. A greater number of overdrafts paid has resulted in an increase in fee income. < Sales of investment securities resulted in a net gain of $370,000, as compared to a net gain of $223,000 for the same period in 2002. The net gain in 2003 resulted primarily from the sale of $14 million of available-for-sale securities during the first quarter. < Mortgage banking income increased $701,000 or 66.5% to $1,755,000 from $1,054,000. This increase was due to the volume of fixed rate loans originated and sold by First Mid Bank. The increase in volume is largely attributed to the historically low level of mortgage lending rates. Loans sold balances are as follows: < $125.1 million (representing 1,349 loans) through the 3rd quarter of 2003. < $64.8 million (representing 695 loans) through the 3rd quarter of 2002. First Mid Bank generally releases the servicing rights on loans sold into the secondary market. Accordingly, capitalized originated mortgage servicing rights are not material to the consolidated financial statements. < Other income increased $344,000 or 25.5% to $1,691,000 from $1,347,000. This increase was primarily due to fees from ATM usage and placement of additional ATMs late in 2002. 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 and nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 (in thousands): <TABLE> <CAPTION> Three months ended Nine months ended September 30, September 30, ------------ ------------ -------------- ----------- ------------ ------------- 2003 2002 $ Change 2003 2002 $ Change ------------ ------------ -------------- ----------- ------------ ------------- <S> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C> Salaries and benefits $ 3,468 $ 3,242 $ 226 $10,197 $ 9,344 $ 853 Occupancy and equipment 1,079 1,043 36 3,202 3,023 179 Amortization of intangibles 212 187 25 577 557 20 Stationery and supplies 148 174 (26) 435 452 (17) Legal and professional fees 217 230 (13) 703 726 (23) Marketing and promotion 142 140 2 464 449 15 Other operating expenses 1,062 1,244 (182) 3,096 3,354 (258) ------------ ------------ -------------- ----------- ------------ ------------- Total other expense $ 6,328 $ 6,260 $68 $18,674 $17,905 $ 769 ============ ============ ============== =========== ============ ============= </TABLE>
Explanations for the three months ended September 30, 2003 as compared to the same period in 2002: < Salaries and employee benefits, the largest component of other expense, increased $226,000 or 7.0% to $3,468,000 from $3,242,000. This increase can be explained by merit increases for continuing employees and the addition of branches in Champaign and Maryville in November 2002. There were 320 full-time equivalent employees at September 30, 2003 compared to 312 at September 30, 2002. < Occupancy and equipment expense increased $36,000 or 3.5% to $1,079,000 from $1,043,000. This increase included building maintenance, utilities and rent expense for Champaign and Maryville branches added in November 2002. < Other operating expenses decreased $182,000 or 14.5% to $1,062,000 in 2003 from $1,244,000 in 2002. This decrease was primarily a result of professional fees for implementing the payment privilege program in 2002. < All other categories of operating expenses decreased a net of $12,000 or 1.6% to $719,000 from $731,000. Explanations for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 as compared to the same period in 2002: < Salaries and employee benefits increased $853,000 or 9.1% to $10,197,000 from $9,344,000. This increase can be explained by merit increases for continuing employees, an increase in the number of employees due to the acquisition of Checkley in January 2002 and the addition of branches in Champaign and Maryville in November 2002. There were 320 full-time equivalent employees at September 30, 2003 compared to 312 at September 30, 2002. < Occupancy and equipment expense increased $179,000 or 5.9% to $3,202,000 from $3,023,000. This increase included building maintenance, utilities and rent expense for Checkley, and Champaign and Maryville branches added in November 2002. < Other operating expenses decreased $258,000 or 7.7% to $3,096,000 in 2003 from $3,354,000 in 2002. This decrease was primarily a result of professional fees for implementing the payment privilege program during the third quarter of 2002 and a write-off of an investment in a venture capital fund during the second quarter of 2002. The Company has not had any write-downs on investments during 2003. < All other categories of operating expenses decreased a net of $5,000 or .2% to $2,179,000 from $2,184,000. Income Taxes Total income tax expense amounted to $1,257,000 (35.2% effective tax rate) for the three months ended September 30, 2003, compared to $1,016,000 (33.3% effective tax rate) for the same period in 2002. For the nine months ended September 30, 2003, total income tax expense amounted to $3,577,000 (34.2% effective tax rate) compared to $3,002,000 (33.2% effective tax rate) for the same period in 2002. The increase in the effective tax rate in 2003 compared to 2002 is due to an increase in non-deductible loan interest income and a decrease in deductible interest income from U.S. Treasury securities, resulting in a larger amount of non-deductible interest income and greater state income tax expense.
Analysis of Balance Sheets Loans The loan portfolio (net of unearned interest) is the largest category of the Company's earning assets. The following table summarizes the composition of the loan portfolio as of September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 (in thousands): September 30, December 31, 2003 2002 --------------- --------------- Real estate - residential $108,472 $116,588 Real estate - agricultural 50,564 47,210 Real estate - commercial 217,796 176,235 --------------- --------------- Total real estate - mortgage $376,832 $340,033 Commercial and agricultural 131,828 127,065 Installment 29,590 31,119 Other 1,493 1,647 --------------- --------------- Total loans $539,743 $499,864 =============== =============== Overall loans increased $39.9 million, or 8.0%. The largest component of this increase was commercial real estate loans, which increased $41.5 million, or 23.6%. Total 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 the Company's focus on commercial real estate lending and long-term commitment to residential real estate lending. The balance of real estate loans held for sale amounted to $1,345,600 and $7,070,000 as of September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively. At September 30, 2003, the Company had loan concentrations in agricultural industries of $92.5 million, or 17.1%, of outstanding loans and $90.7 million, or 18.1%, at December 31, 2002. In addition, the Company has a loan concentration to "motels, hotels and tourist courts" of $18.3 million or 3.4% of outstanding loans at September 30, 2003, and $13.6 million or 2.7% of outstanding loans at December 31, 2002. The Company had no further loan concentrations in excess of 25% of Tier 1 risk-based capital. The following table presents the balance of loans outstanding as of September 30, 2003, by maturities (dollars in thousands): <TABLE> <CAPTION> Maturity (1) --------------------------------------------------------------- Over 1 One year through Over or less (2) 5 years 5 years Total --------------------------------------------------------------- <S> <C> <C> <C> <C> Real estate - residential $ 50,115 $ 56,076 $2,281 $108,472 Real estate - agricultural 8,039 36,803 5,722 50,564 Real estate - commercial 56,497 132,211 29,088 217,796 --------------------------------------------------------------- Total real estate - mortgage $114,651 $225,090 $ 37,091 $376,832 Commercial and agricultural 93,772 36,534 1,522 131,828 Installment 15,932 13,612 46 29,590 Other 656 630 207 1,493 --------------------------------------------------------------- Total loans $225,011 $275,866 $ 38,866 $539,743 =============================================================== </TABLE> (1) Based on scheduled principal repayments. (2) Includes demand loans, past due loans and overdrafts. As of September 30, 2003, loans with maturities over one year consisted of approximately $224,238,000 in fixed rate loans and $90,494,000 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 are defined as: (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 (c) loans not included in (a) and (b) above which are defined as "renegotiated loans". The Company's policy is to cease accrual of interest on all loans that become ninety days past due as to principal or interest. 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. The following table presents information concerning the aggregate amount of nonperforming loans at September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 (in thousands): September 30, December 31, 2003 2002 ---------------- --------------- Nonaccrual loans $4,731 $2,961 Renegotiated loans which are performing in accordance with revised terms 35 188 ---------------- --------------- Total nonperforming Loans $4,766 $3,149 ================ =============== At September 30, 2003, approximately $2,958,000 of the $4,766,000 total nonperforming loans resulted from collateral-dependent loans to three borrowers. The $1,770,000 increase in nonaccrual loans during the nine months ended September 30, 2003, resulted from the net of $3,690,000 of loans put on nonaccrual status, $1,629,000 of loans brought current or paid-off and $291,000 of loans transferred to other real estate owned. The increase in nonaccrual loans during the period ended September 30, 2003, was primarily due to two agricultural loans that are secured by real estate. Interest income that would have been reported if nonaccrual and renegotiated loans had been performing totaled $198,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and $158,000 for the year ended December 31, 2002. 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 allowance for loan losses that is adequate but not excessive. 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 that 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. Management considers collateral values 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 considers the allowance for loan losses a critical accounting policy. Management recognizes that there are risk factors that 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 September 30, 2003, the Company's loan portfolio included $92.5 million of loans to borrowers whose businesses are directly related to agriculture. The balance increased by $1.8 million from $90.7 million at December 31, 2002. While the Company adheres to sound underwriting practices, including collateralization of loans, any extended period of low commodity prices, significantly reduced yields on crops and/or reduced levels of government assistance to the agricultural industry could result in an increase in the level of problem agriculture loans and potentially result in loan losses within the agricultural portfolio.
Analysis of the allowance for loan losses as of September 30, 2003 and 2002, and of changes in the allowance for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, was as follows (dollars in thousands): <TABLE> <CAPTION> Three months ended Nine months ended September 30, September 30, 2003 2002 2003 2002 --------------------------------------------------------- <S> <C> <C> <C> <C> Average loans outstanding, net of unearned income $538,035 $493,474 $519,509 $479,062 Allowance-beginning of period $ 4,122 $ 3,713 $ 3,723 $ 3,702 Charge-offs: Real estate-mortgage 15 27 40 169 Commercial, financial & agricultural 76 268 529 326 Installment 41 56 89 144 --------------------------------------------------------- Total charge-offs 132 351 658 639 Recoveries: Real estate-mortgage 2 12 2 12 Commercial, financial & agricultural 22 13 421 15 Installment 5 12 31 34 --------------------------------------------------------- Total recoveries 29 37 454 61 --------------------------------------------------------- Net charge-offs (recoveries) 103 314 204 578 Provision for loan losses 250 500 750 775 --------------------------------------------------------- Allowance-end of period $ 4,269 $ 3,899 $ 4,269 $ 3,899 ========================================================= Ratio of annualized net charge offs to average loans .08% .26% .05% .16% ========================================================= Ratio of allowance for loan losses to loans outstanding (less unearned interest at end of period) .79% .78% .79% .78% ========================================================= Ratio of allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans 89.6% 104.8% 89.6% 104.8% ========================================================= </TABLE> During the third quarter of 2002, the Company had charge-offs of $197,000 on agricultural operating loans of a single borrower. During the nine months ended September 30, 2003, the Company received a recovery of $382,000 on two commercial real estate loans of a single borrower. During the same period, the Company also had charge-offs of $170,000 on a commercial building loan and $80,000 on an agricultural operating loan secured by crops and real estate during the same period. The Company minimizes credit risk by adhering to sound underwriting and credit review policies. Management and the board of directors of the Company review these policies at least annually. 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. The board of directors and management review the status of problem loans and determine the adequacy of the allowance. In addition to internal policies and controls, regulatory authorities periodically review asset quality and the overall adequacy of the allowance for loan losses.
Securities The Company's overall investment objectives are to insulate the investment portfolio from undue credit risk, maintain adequate liquidity, insulate capital against changes in market value and control excessive changes in earnings while optimizing investment performance. 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 September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 (in thousands): <TABLE> <CAPTION> September 30, December 31, 2003 2002 ----------------------------- --------------------------- Weighted Weighted Amortized Average Amortized Average Cost Yield Cost Yield -------------- -------------- ------------- ------------- <S> <C> <C> <C> <C> U.S. Treasury securities and obligations of U.S. government corporations and agencies $ 98,727 2.96% $ 76,342 3.80% Obligations of states and political subdivisions 26,836 4.62% 27,597 4.63% Mortgage-backed securities 24,466 3.15% 44,697 3.72% Other securities 15,987 5.60% 15,807 5.86% -------------- -------------- ------------- ------------- Total securities $166,016 3.51% $164,443 4.12% ============== ============== ============= ============= </TABLE> At September 30, 2003, the Company's investment portfolio showed an increase in U.S. Treasury securities and obligations of U.S. government corporations and agencies and other securities and a decrease in mortgage-backed securities.

At September 30, 2003, outstanding loan balances include $8,825,000 on a revolving credit agreement with The Northern Trust Company with a floating interest rate of 1.25% over the Federal funds rate (2.33% as of September 30, 2003) that matured on October 24, 2003. Management has subsequently reached an agreement with The Northern Trust Company to renew this loan for one year with a maturity date of October 23, 2004, under the same terms and conditions stated above. The loan has a maximum available balance of $15 million. The loan is secured by all of the common stock of First Mid Bank. The credit agreement contains requirements for the Company and First Mid Bank to maintain various operating and capital ratios and also contains requirements for prior lending approval for certain sales of assets, merger activity, the acquisition or issuance of debt, and the acquisition of treasury stock. The Company and First Mid Bank were in compliance with the existing covenants at September 30, 2003 and at December 31, 2002. The balance also includes a $800,000 balance remaining on a promissory note resulting from the acquisition of Checkley with an annual interest rate equal to the prime rate listed in the money rate section of the Wall Street Journal (4.00% as of September 30, 2003) and principal payable annually over five years, with a final maturity of January 2007.
Interest Rate Sensitivity The Company seeks to maximize its net interest margin while maintaining 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 changes in the interest rate environment, a variable over which management has no control. Interest rate risk, or sensitivity, arises when the maturity or repricing characteristics of interest-bearing assets differ significantly from the maturity or repricing characteristics of interest-bearing liabilities. 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 way to measure potential net interest income exposure to changes in interest rates is through a technique known as "static GAP" analysis which measures the cumulative differences between the amounts of assets and liabilities maturing or repricing at various intervals. By comparing the volumes of interest-bearing assets and liabilities that have contractual maturities and repricing points at various times in the future, management can gain insight into the amount of interest rate risk embedded in the balance sheet. The following table sets forth the Company's interest rate repricing gaps for selected maturity periods at September 30, 2003 (in thousands): <TABLE> <CAPTION> Number of Months Until Next Repricing Opportunity 0-1 1-3 3-6 6-12 12+ Interest-earning assets: --------------- --------------- ---------------- --------------- --------------- <S> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C> Federal funds sold $15,750 $ - $ - $ - $ - Taxable investment securities 20,055 9,029 5,659 22,028 83,836 Nontaxable investment securities - 15 265 31 27,829 Loans 161,739 31,351 45,800 53,821 247,034 --------------- --------------- ---------------- --------------- --------------- Total $ 197,544 $ 40,395 $51,724 $ 75,880 $358,699 --------------- --------------- ---------------- --------------- --------------- Interest-bearing liabilities: Savings and N.O.W. accounts 49,782 3,873 1,588 3,497 149,020 Money market accounts 51,726 506 759 1,438 24,863 Other time deposits 20,770 25,636 40,628 54,120 96,168 Short-term borrowings/debt 53,334 - 5,000 - - Long-term borrowings/debt - - - - 25,300 --------------- --------------- ---------------- --------------- --------------- Total $ 175,612 $ 30,015 $ 47,975 $ 59,055 $295,351 =============== =============== ================ =============== =============== Periodic GAP $21,932 $ 10,380 $ 3,749 $ 16,825 $ 63,348 =============== =============== ================ =============== =============== Cumulative GAP $21,932 $ 32,312 $ 36,061 $ 52,886 $116,234 =============== =============== ================ =============== =============== GAP as a % of interest-earning assets: Periodic 3.0% 1.4% .5% 2.3% 8.7% Cumulative 3.0% 4.5% 5.0% 7.3% 16.0% </TABLE> The static GAP analysis shows that at September 30, 2003, the Company was asset sensitive, on a cumulative basis, through the twelve-month time horizon. This indicates that future increases in interest rates, if any, could have a positive effect on net interest income. Conversely, future decreases in interest rates could have an adverse effect on net interest income. There are several ways the Company measures and manages the exposure to interest rate sensitivity, including static GAP analysis. The Company's asset liability management committee (ALCO) also uses other financial models to project interest income under various rate scenarios and prepayment/extension assumptions consistent with First Mid Bank's historical experience and with known industry trends. ALCO meets at least monthly to review the Company's exposure to interest rate changes as indicated by the various techniques and to make necessary changes in the composition terms and/or rates of the assets and liabilities. Based on all information available, management does not believe that changes in interest rates, which might reasonably be expected to occur in the next twelve months, will have a material adverse effect on the Company's net interest income.
Capital Resources At September 30, 2003, the Company's stockholders' equity had increased $3,494,000 or 5.2% to $70,301,000 from $66,807,000 as of December 31, 2002. During the first nine months of 2003, net income contributed $6,877,000 to equity before the payment of dividends to common stockholders. The change in market value of available-for-sale investment securities decreased stockholders' equity by $706,000, net of tax. Additional purchases of treasury stock (103,419 shares at an average cost of $33.51 per share) decreased stockholders' equity by $3,466,000. 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 Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System ("Federal Reserve System"), and First Mid Bank follows similar minimum regulatory requirements established for national banks by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency ("OCC"). 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 September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, the Company and First Mid Bank have met all capital adequacy requirements. As of September 30, 2003, the most recent notification from the OCC 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 following table. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed this categorization. <TABLE> <CAPTION> To Be Well Capitalized Under For Capital Prompt Corrective Actual Adequacy Purposes Action Provisions -------------------------- ------------------------- ------------------------- Amount Ratio Amount Ratio Amount Ratio ------------- ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ <S> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C> September 30, 2003 Total Capital (to risk-weighted assets) Company $59,791 10.70% $44,707 > 8.00% N/A N/A - First Mid Bank 64,624 11.64% 44,421 > 8.00% $55,526 >10.00% - - Tier 1 Capital (to risk-weighted assets) Company 55,522 9.94% 22,354 > 4.00% N/A N/A - First Mid Bank 60,355 10.87% 22,211 > 4.00% 33,316 > 6.00% - - Tier 1 Capital (to average assets) Company 55,522 7.27% 30,552 > 4.00% N/A N/A - First Mid Bank 60,355 7.94% 30,410 > 4.00% 38,012 > 5.00% - - December 31, 2002 Total Capital (to risk-weighted assets) Company $54,380 10.35% $42,051 > 8.00% N/A N/A - First Mid Bank 59,476 11.42% 41,653 > 8.00% $52,067 >10.00% - - Tier 1 Capital (to risk-weighted assets) Company 50,657 9.64% 21,026 > 4.00% N/A N/A - First Mid Bank 55,753 10.71% 20,827 > 4.00% 31,240 > 6.00% - - Tier 1 Capital (to average assets) Company 50,657 6.62% 30,630 > 4.00% N/A N/A - First Mid Bank 55,753 7.39% 30,158 > 4.00% 37,698 > 5.00% - - </TABLE>
Banks and financial holding companies and bank holding companies are expected to operate at or above the minimum capital requirements. These ratios are in excess of regulatory minimums and allow the Company to operate without capital adequacy concerns. Stock Plans Participants may purchase Company stock under the following four plans of the Company: 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 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K. On August 5, 1998, the Company announced a stock repurchase program for up to 3% of its common stock. In March 2000, the Board approved the repurchase of an additional 5% of the Company's common stock. In September 2001, the Board approved the repurchase of $3 million of additional shares of the Company's common stock and in August 2002, the Board approved the repurchase of $5 million of additional shares of the Company's common stock. In September 2003 the Board approved the repurchase of $10 million of additional shares of the Company's common stock, bringing the aggregate total to 8% of the Company's common stock plus $18 million of additional shares. During the nine-month period ending September 30, 2003, the Company repurchased 103,419 shares at a total price of $3,466,000. Since 1998, the Company has repurchased a total of 514,981 shares at a total price of $13,768,000. As of September 30, 2003, the Company was authorized per all repurchase programs to purchase $10,439,000 in additional shares. Liquidity Liquidity represents the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to meet all present and future financial obligations arising in the daily operations of the business. Financial obligations consist of the need for funds to meet extensions of credit, deposit withdrawals and debt servicing. The Company's liquidity management focuses on the ability to obtain funds economically through assets that may be converted into cash at minimal costs or through other sources. The Company's other sources of cash include overnight Federal fund lines, Federal Home Loan Bank advances, deposits of the State of Illinois, the ability to borrow at the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, and the Company's operating line of credit with The Northern Trust Company. Details for the sources include: < First Mid Bank has $17 million available in overnight Federal fund lines, including $10 million from Harris Trust and Savings Bank of Chicago and $7 million from The Northern Trust Company. Availability of the funds is subject to First Mid Bank meeting minimum regulatory capital requirements for Total Capital to Risk-Weighted Assets and Tier 1 Capital to Total Assets. As of September 30, 2003, First Mid Bank's ratios of Total Capital to Risk-Weighted Assets of 11.64% and Tier 1 Capital to Total Assets of 7.94% exceeded minimum regulatory requirements. < First Mid Bank can also borrow from the Federal Home Loan Bank as a source of liquidity. Availability of the funds is subject to the pledging of collateral to the Federal Home Loan Bank. Collateral that can be pledged includes one-to-four family residential real estate loans and securities. At September 30, 2003, the excess collateral at the Federal Home Loan Bank will support approximately $26 million of additional advances. < First Mid Bank also receives deposits from the State of Illinois. The receipt of these funds is subject to competitive bid and requires collateral to be pledged at the time of placement. < First Mid Bank is also a member of the Federal Reserve System and can borrow funds provided that sufficient collateral is pledged. < In addition, the Company has a revolving credit agreement in the amount of $15 million with The Northern Trust Company. The Company has an outstanding balance of $8,825,000 as of September 30, 2003, and $6,175,000 in available funds. The credit agreement matured on October 24, 2003. Management has subsequently reached and agreement with The Northern Trust Company to renew the loan for one year with a maturity date of October 23, 2004 with the same terms and conditions stated above. The agreement contains requirements for the Company and First Mid Bank to maintain various operating and capital ratios and for prior lender approval for certain sales of assets, merger activity, the acquisition or issuance of debt, and the acquisition of treasury stock. The Company and First Mid Bank were in compliance with the existing covenants at September 30, 2003.
Management monitors its expected liquidity requirements carefully, focusing primarily on cash flows from: < lending activities, including loan commitments, letters of credit and mortgage prepayment assumptions; < deposit activities, including seasonal demand of private and public funds; < investing activities, including prepayments of mortgage-backed securities and call provisions on U.S. government treasuries and agency securities; and < operating activities, including scheduled debt repayments and dividends to stockholders. The following table summarizes significant contractual obligations and other commitments at September 30, 2003 (in thousands): <TABLE> <CAPTION> Less than More than Total 1 year 1-3 years 3-5 years 5 years -------------- --------------- --------------- --------------- -------------- <S> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C> Time deposits $241,856 $145,536 $52,712 $43,028 $580 Debt 9,625 9,025 400 200 - Other borrowings 83,633 58,333 17,300 5,000 3,000 Operating leases 2,385 300 500 341 1,244 -------------- --------------- --------------- --------------- -------------- $337,499 $213,194 $70,912 $48,569 $4,824 ============== =============== =============== =============== ============== </TABLE> For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2003, net cash of $15.9 million and $2.2 million was provided from operating activities and financing activities, respectively, while investing activities used net cash of $48.1 million. Thus, cash and cash equivalents decreased by $30.0 million since year-end 2002. Generally, during 2003, decreases in deposits due to seasonal outflow and funds used to fund new loans reduced cash balances. Management believes that it has adequate sources of liquidity to meet its contractual obligations as well as to provide for contingencies that might reasonably be expected to occur. First Mid enters into financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include lines of credit, letters of credit and other commitments to extend credit. Each of these instruments involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, and interest rate and liquidity risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company uses the same credit policies and requires similar collateral in approving lines of credit and commitments and issuing letters of credit as it does in making loans. The exposure to credit losses on financial instruments is represented by the contractual amount of these instruments. However, the Company does not anticipate any losses from these instruments. The off-balance sheet financial instruments whose contract amounts represent credit risk at September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 were as follows (in thousands): September 30, December 31, 2003 2002 ---------------- -------------- Unused commitments, including lines of credit: Commercial real estate $ 26,445 $31,506 Commercial operating 30,125 31,160 Home equity 11,629 9,509 Other 12,557 13,753 ---------------- -------------- Total $ 80,756 $85,928 ================ ============== Standby letters of credit $2,455 $997 ================ ==============
Commitments to originate credit represent approved commercial, residential real estate and home equity loans that generally are expected to be funded within ninety days. Lines of credit are agreements by which the Company agrees to provide a borrowing accommodation up to a stated amount as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the loan agreement. Both commitments to originate credit and lines of credit generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the lines and some commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the financial performance of customers to third parties. Standby letters of credit are primarily issued to facilitate trade or support borrowing arrangements and generally expire in one year or less. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending credit facilities to customers.
