NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation: The accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements of Peoples Bancorp Inc. and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements do not contain all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with Peoples’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 (“2011 Form 10-K”).

The accounting and reporting policies followed in the presentation of the accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements are consistent with those described in Note 1 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Peoples’ 2011 Form 10-K, as updated by the information contained in this Form 10-Q. Management has evaluated all significant events and transactions that occurred after June 30, 2012, for potential recognition or disclosure in these consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, these consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary to present fairly such information for the periods and dates indicated. Such adjustments are normal and recurring in nature. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2011, contained herein has been derived from the audited Consolidated Balance Sheet included in Peoples’ 2011 Form 10-K.

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year, due in part to seasonal variations and unusual or infrequently occurring items. Peoples’ insurance income includes contingent performance-based insurance commissions that are recognized by Peoples when received, which typically occurs during the first quarter of each year.

New Accounting Pronouncements: In June 2011, the FASB issued an accounting standards update with new guidance on the presentation of other comprehensive income (“OCI”). This standard was effective for public companies for fiscal years, and interim period within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011, and was to be applied retrospectively. The amendment now requires an entity to either present components of net income and other comprehensive income in one continuous statement or in two separate but consecutive statements. This standard is intended to improve the overall quality of financial reporting by increasing the prominence of items reported in OCI, and additionally align the presentation of OCI in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP with those prepared in accordance with IFRSs. Peoples adopted this new guidance on January 1, 2012, as required. As a result of the adoption, the components of OCI are presented in a separate statement following the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Note 2 Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The measurement of fair value under US GAAP uses a hierarchy intended to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. This hierarchy uses three levels of inputs to measure the fair value of assets and liabilities as follows:

Level 1: Quoted prices in active exchange markets for identical assets or liabilities; also includes certain U.S. Treasury and other U.S. government and agency securities actively traded in over-the-counter markets.

Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in less active markets, or other observable inputs that can be corroborated by observable market data; also includes derivative contracts whose value is determined using a pricing model with observable market inputs or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data. This category generally includes certain U.S. government and agency securities, corporate debt securities, derivative instruments, and residential mortgage loans held for sale.

Table of Contents

Level 3: Unobservable inputs supported by little or no market activity for financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation; also includes observable inputs for single dealer nonbinding quotes not corroborated by observable market data. This category generally includes certain private equity investments, retained interests from securitizations, and certain collateralized debt obligations.

Assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis comprised the following at June 30, 2012:

The fair values used by Peoples are obtained from an independent pricing service and represent either quoted market prices for the identical securities (Level 1 inputs) or fair values determined by pricing models using a market approach that considers observable market data, such as interest rate volatilities, LIBOR yield curves, credit spreads and prices from market makers and live trading systems (Level 2).

Certain financial assets and financial liabilities are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis; that is, the instruments are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of impairment). Financial assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis included the following:

Impaired Loans: Impaired loans are measured and reported at fair value when management believes collection of contractual interest and principal payments is doubtful. Management’s determination of the fair value for these loans uses a market approach representing the estimated net proceeds to be received from the sale of the collateral based on observable market prices and market value provided by independent, licensed or certified appraisers (Level 2 inputs). At June 30, 2012, impaired loans with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $5.6 million were measured and reported at a fair value of $3.9 million. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, Peoples recognized losses on impaired loans of $1.3 million and $1.6 million, respectively, through the allowance for loan losses.

The following table presents the fair values of financial assets and liabilities carried on Peoples’ consolidated balance sheets, including those financial assets and financial liabilities that are not measured and reported at fair value on a recurring basis or non-recurring basis:

Junior subordinated notes held by subsidiary trust	22,618		23,708		22,600		23,760

The methodologies for estimating the fair value of financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis are discussed above. For certain financial assets and liabilities, carrying value approximates fair value due to the nature of the financial instrument. These instruments include cash and cash equivalents, demand and other non-maturity deposits and overnight borrowings. Peoples used the following methods and assumptions in estimating the fair value of the following financial instruments:

Loans: The fair value of portfolio loans assumes sale of the notes to a third-party financial investor. Accordingly, this value is not necessarily the value to Peoples if the notes were held to maturity. Peoples considered interest rate, credit and market factors in estimating the fair value of loans (Level 2 inputs). In the current whole loan market, financial investors are generally requiring a much higher rate of return than the return inherent in loans if held to maturity given the lack of market liquidity. This divergence accounts for the majority of the difference in carrying amount over fair value.

Deposits: The fair value of fixed maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation based on current rates offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities (Level 2 inputs).

Long-term Borrowings: The fair value of long-term borrowings is estimated using discounted cash flow analysis based on rates currently available to Peoples for borrowings with similar terms (Level 2 inputs).

Junior Subordinated Notes Held by Subsidiary Trust: The fair value of the junior subordinated notes held by subsidiary trust is estimated using discounted cash flow analysis based on current market rates of securities with similar risk and remaining maturity (Level 2 inputs).

Bank premises and equipment, customer relationships, deposit base, banking center networks, and other information required to compute Peoples’ aggregate fair value are not included in the above information. Accordingly, the above fair values are not intended to represent the aggregate fair value of Peoples.

Peoples’ investment in equity securities was comprised entirely of common stocks issued by various unrelated bank holding companies at both June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011. At June 30, 2012, there were no securities of a single issuer, other than U.S. Treasury and government agencies and U.S. government sponsored agencies, that exceeded 10% of stockholders' equity.

The gross gains and gross losses realized by Peoples from sales of available-for-sale securities for the three and six months ended June 30 were as follows:



	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 30,				June 30,
(Dollars in thousands)	2012		2011		2012		2011
Gross gains realized	$	—	$	56	$	3,272	$	498
Gross losses realized	—		—		109		82
Net gain realized	$	—	$	56	$	3,163	$	416

The cost of investment securities sold, and any resulting gain or loss, was based on the specific identification method and recognized as of the trade date.

Management systematically evaluates available-for-sale investment securities for other-than-temporary declines in fair value on a quarterly basis. At June 30, 2012, management concluded no individual securities were other-than-temporarily impaired since Peoples did not have the intent to sell nor was it more likely than not that Peoples would be required to sell any of the securities with an unrealized loss prior to recovery. Further, the unrealized losses at both June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, were largely attributable to changes in market interest rates and spreads since the securities were purchased.

At June 30, 2012, approximately 95% of the mortgage-backed securities that have been at an unrealized loss position for twelve months or more were issued by U.S. government sponsored enterprises. The remaining 5%, or seven positions, consisted of privately issued mortgage-backed securities with all of the underlying mortgages originated prior to 2004. Three of the seven positions had a fair value less than 90% of their book value, with an aggregate book and fair value of $2.1 million and $1.8 million, respectively.

Furthermore, three of the seven bank-issued trust preferred securities at an unrealized loss position were within 95% of book value, while the unrealized losses for the remaining four were primarily attributable to the floating nature of these investments, the current interest rate environment and spreads within that sector. The remaining four securities had an aggregate book value of approximately $5.1 million and fair value of $3.9 million at June 30, 2012.

Management has analyzed the underlying credit quality of these securities and concluded the unrealized losses were primarily attributable to the floating rate nature of these investments and the low number of loans remaining in these securities.

Other Securities

Peoples’ other investment securities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets consisted solely of restricted equity securities issued by the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati (“FHLB”) and the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland(“FRB”). These securities are carried at cost since they do not have readily determinable fair values due to their restricted nature and Peoples does not exercise significant influence over the entities.

Pledged Securities

Peoples had pledged available-for-sale investment securities with a carrying value of $345.0 million and $359.1 million at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, to secure public and trust department deposits and repurchase agreements in accordance with federal and state requirements. Additionally, Peoples had pledged held-to-maturity investment securities with a carrying value of $24.9 million and $3.0 million at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, to secure public and trust department deposits and repurchase agreements in accordance with federal and state requirements. Peoples also pledged available-for-sale investment securities with carrying values of $56.8 million and $65.2 million at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, to secure additional borrowing capacity at the FHLB and the FRB.

Note 4 Loans

Peoples' loan portfolio consists of various types of loans originated primarily as a result of lending opportunities within Peoples' primary market areas of central and southeastern Ohio, west central West Virginia, and northeastern Kentucky. The major classifications of loan balances, excluding loans held for sale, were as follows:



	June 30,		December 31,
(Dollars in thousands)	2012		2011
Commercial real estate	$	394,323	$	410,352
Commercial and industrial	161,893		140,857
Real estate construction	43,775		30,577
Residential real estate	212,813		219,619
Home equity lines of credit	48,414		47,790
Consumer	92,334		87,531
Deposit account overdrafts	1,726		1,780
Total loans	$	955,278	$	938,506

Peoples has acquired various loans through business combinations for which there was, at acquisition, evidence of deterioration of credit quality since origination and for which it was probable that all contractually required payments would not be collected. The carrying amounts of these loans included in the loan balances above are summarized as follows:



	June 30,		December 31,
(Dollars in thousands)	2012		2011
Commercial real estate	$	3,011	$	3,754
Commercial and industrial	115		109
Residential real estate	13,231		14,497
Consumer	86		101
Total outstanding balance	$	16,443	$	18,461
Net carrying amount	$	15,935	$	17,954

Peoples has pledged certain loans secured by 1-4 family and multifamily residential mortgages under a blanket collateral agreement to secure borrowings from the FHLB. The amount of such pledged loans totaled $185.3 million and $184.8 million at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. Peoples also had pledged commercial loans to secure borrowings with the FRB. The outstanding balances of these loans totaled $149.7 million and $124.0 million at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

Nonaccrual and Past Due Loans

A loan is considered past due if any required principal and interest payments have not been received as of the date such payments were required to be made under the terms of the loan agreement. A loan may be placed on nonaccrual status regardless of whether or not such loan is considered past due. The recorded investments in loans on nonaccrual status and accruing loans delinquent for 90 days or more were as follows:



					Accruing Loans
	Nonaccrual Loans				90+ Days Past Due
	June 30,		December 31,		June 30,		December 31,

Credit Quality Indicators

As discussed in Note 1 of Peoples' 2011 Form 10-K, Peoples categorizes the majority of its loans into risk categories based upon an established risk grading matrix using a scale of 1 to 8. A description of the general characteristics of the risk grades used by Peoples is as follows:

“Pass” (grades 1 through 4): Loans in this risk category involve borrowers of acceptable-to-strong credit quality and risk who have the apparent ability to satisfy their loan obligations. Loans in this risk grade would possess sufficient mitigating factors, such as adequate collateral or strong guarantors possessing the capacity to repay the debt if required, for any weakness that may exist.

“Watch” (grade 5): Loans in this risk grade are the equivalent of the regulatory definition of “Other Assets Especially Mentioned” classification. Loans in this category possess some credit deficiency or potential weakness, which requires a high level of management attention. Potential weaknesses include declining trends in operating earnings and cash flows and /or reliance on the secondary source of repayment. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in noticeable deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in Peoples' credit position.

“Substandard” (grade 6): Loans in this risk grade are inadequately protected by the borrower's current financial condition and payment capability or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have one or more well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the orderly repayment of debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that Peoples will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

“Doubtful” (grade 7): Loans in this risk grade have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or orderly repayment in full, on the basis of current existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. Possibility of loss is extremely high, but because of certain important and reasonably specific factors that may work to the advantage and strengthening of the exposure, its classification as an estimate loss is deferred until its more exact status may be determined.

“Loss” (grade 8): Loans in this risk grade are considered to be non-collectible and of such little value that their continuance as bankable assets is not warranted. This does not mean the loan has absolutely no recovery value, but rather it is neither practical nor desirable to defer writing off the loan, even though partial recovery may be obtained in the future. Charge-offs against the allowance for loan losses are taken in the period in which the loan becomes uncollectible. Consequently, Peoples typically does not maintain a recorded investment in loans within this category.

Consumer loans and other smaller-balance loans are evaluated and categorized as “substandard”, “doubtful” or “loss” based upon the regulatory definition of these classes and consistent with regulatory requirements. All other loans not evaluated individually nor meeting the regulatory conditions to be categorized as describe above would be considered as being “not rated”.

The following table summarizes the risk category of Peoples' loan portfolio based upon the most recent analysis performed:

At June 30, 2012, Peoples' impaired loans shown in the table above included loans that were classified as troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs'). The restructuring of a loan is considered a TDR if both (i) the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties and (ii) the creditor has granted a concession.

In assessing whether or not a borrower is experiencing financial difficulties, Peoples considers information currently available regarding the financial condition of the borrower. This information includes, but is not limited to, whether (i) the debtor is currently in payment default on any of its debt; (ii) a payment default is probable in the foreseeable future without the modification; (iii) the debtor has declared or is in the process of declaring bankruptcy and (iv) the debtor's projected cash flow is insufficient to satisfy contractual payments due under the original terms of the loan without a modification.

Peoples considers all aspects of the modification to loan terms to determine whether or not a concession has been granted to the borrower. Key factors considered by Peoples include the debtor's ability to access funds at a market rate for debt with similar risk characteristics, the significance of the modification relative to the unpaid principal balance or collateral value of the debt, and the significance of a delay in the timing of payments relative to the original contractual terms of the loan. The most common concessions granted by Peoples generally include one or more modifications to the terms of the debt, such as (i) a reduction in the interest rate for the remaining life of the debt, (ii) an extension of the maturity date at an interest rate lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk, (iii) a temporary period of interest-only payments, and (iv) a reduction in the contractual payment amount for either a short period or the remaining term of the loan.

The following table summarizes the loans that were modified as a TDR during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012. There were no loans modified as a TDR during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011.



		Three Months Ended							Six Months Ended
		Recorded Investment (1)							Recorded Investment (1)
	Number of Contracts	Pre-Modification		Post-Modification		At June 30, 2012		Number of Contracts	Pre-Modification		Post-Modification		At June 30, 2012

Residential real estate	1	$	50	$	50	$	49	1	$	50	$	50	$	49


(1)	The amounts shown are inclusive of all partial paydowns and charge-offs. Loans modified in a TDR that were fully paid down, charged-off or foreclosed upon by period end are not reported.

There were no loans modified in a TDR over the last twelve months that subsequently defaulted (i.e., 90 days or more past due following a modification) during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012.

Peoples has no additional commitments to lend additional funds to any of the related debtors whose terms have been modified in a TDR.

Note 5 Long-Term Borrowings

Long-term borrowings consisted of the following at:



	June 30, 2012				December 31, 2011
(Dollars in thousands)	Balance		Weighted- Average Rate		Balance		Weighted- Average Rate
Callable national market repurchase agreements	$	40,000	3.63	%	$	65,000	3.43	%
FHLB putable non-amortizing, fixed rate advances	50,000		3.32	%	60,000		3.28	%
FHLB amortizing, fixed rate advances	16,471		3.61	%	17,312		3.59	%
Total long-term borrowings	$	106,471	3.48	%	$	142,312	3.38	%

Peoples' national market repurchase agreements consist of agreements with unrelated financial service companies and have original maturities ranging from 3 to 10 years. In general, these agreements may not be terminated by Peoples prior to maturity without incurring additional costs. The callable agreements contain call option features, in which the buyer has the right, at its discretion, to terminate the repurchase agreement after an initial period ranging from 3 months to 5 years. After the initial call period, the buyer has the right to terminate the agreement on a quarterly basis thereafter until maturity. If the buyer exercises its option, Peoples would be required to repay the agreement in whole at the quarterly date. During the first quarter of 2012, Peoples prepaid $35.0 million of wholesale borrowings resulting in early termination fees of $3.1 million. The borrowings had a weighted-average cost of 3.09%.

The FHLB advances consist of various borrowings with original maturities ranging from 3 to 20 years that generally may not be repaid prior to maturity without Peoples incurring a penalty. The rates on the convertible rate advances are fixed from initial periods ranging from one to four years, depending on the specific advance. After the initial fixed rate period, the FHLB has the option to convert each advance to a LIBOR based, variable rate advance. If the FHLB exercises its option, Peoples may repay the advance in whole or in part on the conversion date or any subsequent repricing date without a prepayment fee. At all other times, early repayment of any convertible rate advance would result in Peoples incurring a prepayment penalty. For the putable advances, the FHLB has the option, at its sole discretion following an initial period of three months, to terminate the debt and require Peoples to repay the advance prior to the final stated maturity. After the initial period, the FHLB has the option to terminate the debt on a quarterly basis. If the advance is terminated prior to maturity, the FHLB will offer Peoples replacement funding at the then-prevailing rate on an advance product then-offered by the FHLB, subject to normal FHLB underwriting criteria. As discussed in Notes 8 and 9 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Peoples' 2011 Form 10-K, long-term FHLB advances are collateralized by assets owned by Peoples.

The aggregate minimum annual retirements of long-term borrowings in future periods are as follows:



(Dollars in thousands)	Balance		Weighted-Average Rate
Six Months Ending December 31, 2012	$	1,566	3.78	%
Year Ending December 31, 2013	2,225		3.67	%
Year Ending December 31, 2014	1,721		3.55	%
Year Ending December 31, 2015	1,466		3.55	%
Year Ending December 31, 2016	1,257		3.56	%
Thereafter	98,236		3.47	%

Note 6 Stockholders’ Equity

The following table details the progression in shares of Peoples’ preferred, common and treasury stock during the period presented:



	Preferred Stock	Common Stock	Treasury Stock
Shares at December 31, 2011	—	11,122,247	615,123
Changes related to stock-based compensation awards:
Release of restricted common shares		2,000	748
Changes related to deferred compensation plan:

Common shares issued under Board of Directors' compensation plan		—	(3,385	)
Shares at June 30, 2012	—	11,134,025	607,071

Under its Amended Articles of Incorporation, Peoples is authorized to issue up to 50,000 preferred shares, in one or more series, having such voting powers, designations, preferences, rights, qualifications, limitations and restrictions as determined by the Board of Directors. In 2009, Peoples’ Board of Directors created a series of preferred shares designated as Peoples’ Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Shares, Series A, each without par value and having a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share, and fixed 39,000 shares as the authorized number of such shares (the “Series A Preferred Shares”). These Series A Preferred Shares subsequently were sold to the United States Department of the Treasury (the “U.S. Treasury”), along with a ten-year warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase 313,505 Peoples common shares at an exercise price of $18.66 per share (subject to certain anti-dilution and other adjustments), for an aggregate purchase price of $39 million in cash in connection with Peoples’ participation in the U.S. Treasury’s TARP Capital Purchase Program. The entire 39,000 Series A Preferred Shares were repurchased during 2011 at an aggregate price of $39 million.

On February 15, 2012, Peoples completed the repurchase of the Warrant for a purchase price of $1,200,724.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income

The following details the change in the components of Peoples’ accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for the six months ended June 30, 2012:

Note 7 Employee Benefit Plans

Peoples sponsors a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan that covers substantially all employees hired before January 1, 2010. The plan provides retirement benefits based on an employee’s years of service and compensation. For employees hired before January 1, 2003, the amount of postretirement benefit is based on the employee’s average monthly compensation pay over the highest five consecutive years out of the employee’s last ten years with Peoples while an eligible employee. For employees hired on or after January 1, 2003, the amount of postretirement benefit is based on 2% of the employee’s annual compensation plus accrued interest. Effective January 1, 2010, the pension plan was closed to new entrants. Effective March 1, 2011, the accrual of pension plan benefits for all participants was frozen. Peoples recognized this freeze as a curtailment as of December 31, 2010 and March 1, 2011, under the terms of the pension plan. Peoples also provides post-retirement health and life insurance benefits to former employees and directors. Only those individuals who retired before January 27, 2012 were eligible for life insurance benefits. All retirees are eligible for health benefits, however, Peoples only pays 100% of the cost for those individuals who retired before January 1, 1993. For all others, the retiree is responsible for most, if not all, of the cost of health benefits. Peoples’ policy is to fund the cost of the benefits as they arise.

The following tables detail the components of the net periodic cost for the plans:



	Pension Benefits
	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended
	June 30,						June 30,
(Dollars in thousands)	2012			2011			2012			2011

Settlement of benefit obligation	—		—			—			—
Net periodic cost	$	4	$	1		$	4		$	2

Under US GAAP, Peoples is required to recognize a settlement gain or loss when the aggregate amount of lump-sum distributions to participants equals or exceeds the sum of the service and interest cost components of the net periodic pension cost. The amount of settlement gain or loss recognized is the pro rata amount of the unrealized gain or loss existing immediately prior to the settlement. In general, both the projected benefit obligation and fair value of plan assets are required to be remeasured in order to determine the settlement gain or loss.

Table of Contents

In the second quarter of 2012, the total lump-sum distributions made to participants, when added to the lump-sum distributions made in the first quarter of 2012, caused the total settlements through six months of 2012 to exceed the recognition threshold for settlement gains or losses. As a result, Peoples remeasured its pension obligation and plan assets as of April 1, 2012 as part of the calculation of the settlement loss recognized. The following table summarizes the change in pension obligation and funded status as a result of this remeasurement and the aggregate settlements for the six months ended June 30, 2012:



	As of			June 30, 2012
(Dollars in thousands)	December 31,			Before			Impact of			After
Funded status:	2011			Settlement			Settlements			Settlements

Note 8 Stock-Based Compensation

Under the Peoples Bancorp Inc. Amended and Restated 2006 Equity Plan (the “2006 Equity Plan”), Peoples may grant, among other awards, nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, restricted stock awards, stock appreciation rights or any combination thereof covering up to 500,000 common shares to employees and non-employee directors. Prior to 2007, Peoples granted nonqualified and incentive stock options to employees and nonqualified stock options to non-employee directors under the 2006 Equity Plan and predecessor plans. Since February 2007, Peoples has granted a combination of restricted common shares and stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) to be settled in common shares to employees and restricted common shares to non-employee directors subject to the terms and conditions prescribed by the 2006 Equity Plan. In general, common shares issued in connection with stock-based awards are issued from treasury shares to the extent available. If no treasury shares are available, common shares are issued from authorized but unissued common shares.

Stock Options

Under the provisions of the 2006 Equity Plan and predecessor stock option plans, the exercise price per share of any stock option granted may not be less than the grant date fair market value of the underlying common shares. All stock options granted to both employees and non-employee directors expire ten years from the date of grant. The most recent stock option grants to employees and non-employee directors occurred in 2006. The stock options granted to employees vested three years after the grant date, while the stock options granted to non-employee directors vested six months after the grant date. The following table summarizes Peoples’ stock options outstanding at June 30, 2012:



			Options Outstanding & Exercisable
Range of Exercise Prices			Common Shares Subject to Options Outstanding	Weighted- Average Remaining Contractual Life	Weighted-Average Exercise Price
$15.55	to	$21.71	4,043	0.7	$	21.71

Total			103,694	2.1	$	26.05

Table of Contents

Stock Appreciation Rights

SARs granted to employees have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of Peoples’ common shares on the date of grant and will be settled using common shares of Peoples. Additionally, the SARs granted vested three years after the grant date and expire ten years from the date of grant. The most recent grant of SARs occurred in 2008. The following table summarizes Peoples’ SARs outstanding at June 30, 2012:



Exercise Price	Number of Common Shares Subject to SARs Outstanding & Exercisable	Weighted- Average Remaining Contractual Life
$23.26	2,000	5.1
$23.77	11,509	5.6
$29.25	9,340	4.6
Total	22,849	5.2

Restricted Shares

Under the 2006 Equity Plan, Peoples may award restricted common shares to officers, key employees and non-employee directors. In general, the restrictions on common shares awarded to non-employee directors expire after six months, while the restrictions on common shares awarded to employees expire after periods ranging from one to three years. In the first quarter of 2012, Peoples granted restricted common shares to officers and key employees with a two-year time-based vesting period, a three-year time-based vesting period or a two-year performance-based vesting period. For the restricted common shares subject to performance-based vesting, the restrictions on these restricted common shares will lapse two years after the grant date upon the achievement of cumulative diluted earnings per common share of $2.83 for the three-year period ending December 31, 2013.

The following summarizes the changes to Peoples’ restricted common shares for the period ended June 30, 2012:



	Time Vesting			Performance Vesting
	Number of Shares	Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value		Number of Shares	Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value
Outstanding at January 1	26,544	$	12.89	3,363	$	13.14

Outstanding at June 30	66,293	$	14.24	17,865	$	16.07

For the six months ended June 30, 2012, the total intrinsic value of restricted common shares released was $32,000.

Stock-Based Compensation

Peoples recognized stock-based compensation expense, which is included as a component of Peoples’ salaries and employee benefit costs, based on the estimated fair value of the awards on the grant date. The following summarizes the amount of stock-based compensation expense and related tax benefit recognized:



	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended
	June 30,						June 30,
(Dollars in thousands)	2012			2011			2012			2011
Total stock-based compensation	$	259		$	63		$	485		$	96
Recognized tax benefit	(91		)	(22		)	(170		)	(34		)
Net expense recognized	$	168		$	41		$	315		$	62

Total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to unvested awards was $632,000 at June 30, 2012, which will be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.8 years.

Restricted shares, stock options and SARs covering 157,995 and 248,093 common shares were excluded from the calculations for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, since they were anti-dilutive.

Note 10 Acquisitions

On June 5, 2012, Peoples announced that it had signed a definitive agreement to acquire Sistersville Bancorp, Inc. ("Sistersville") for total cash consideration of $9.8 million. The agreement calls for Sistersville to merge into Peoples, and for Sistersville's wholly-owned subsidiary, First Federal Savings Bank, which operates two full-service branches in Sistersville and Parkersburg, West Virginia, to merge into Peoples' wholly-owned subsidiary, Peoples Bank, National Association. The transaction, which is subject to regulatory approval and Sistersville shareholder approval, is expected to be completed during the third quarter of 2012.

During the second quarter of 2012, Peoples acquired a small financial advisory book of business in Wood County, West Virginia for cash consideration of $0.9 million. A portion of the consideration is contingent upon revenue metrics being achieved. The balances and operations of the acquisition is included in Peoples' consolidated financial statements from the date of the acquisition, and do not materially impact Peoples' financial position, results of operations or cash flows for any period presented.

RISK FACTORS” of Peoples’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 (the “2011 Form 10-K”).

All forward-looking statements speak only as of the execution date of this Form 10-Q and are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements. Although management believes the expectations in these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions within the bounds of management’s knowledge of Peoples’ business and operations, it is

Table of Contents

possible that actual results may differ materially from these projections. Additionally, Peoples undertakes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Form 10-Q or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events except as may be required by applicable legal requirements. Copies of documents filed with the SEC are available free of charge at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov and/or from Peoples Bancorp Inc.’s website – www.peoplesbancorp.com under the “Investor Relations” section.

This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements, and notes thereto, contained in Peoples’ 2011 Form 10-K, as well as the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements, ratios, statistics and discussions contained elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.

Business Overview

The following discussion and analysis of Peoples’ Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements is presented to provide insight into management’s assessment of the financial condition and results of operations.

Peoples offers diversified financial products and services through 44 financial service locations and 42 ATMs in southeastern Ohio, west central West Virginia and northeastern Kentucky through its financial service units – Peoples Bank, National Association (“Peoples Bank”), Peoples Financial Advisors (a division of Peoples Bank) and Peoples Insurance Agency, LLC, a subsidiary of Peoples Bank. Peoples Bank is a member of the Federal Reserve System and subject to regulation, supervision and examination by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency.

Peoples’ products and services include traditional banking products, such as deposit accounts, lending products and trust services. Peoples also offers a complete array of insurance products and makes available custom-tailored fiduciary and wealth management services. Peoples provides services through traditional offices, ATMs and telephone and internet-based banking. Brokerage services are offered exclusively through an unaffiliated registered broker-dealer located at Peoples’ offices.

Critical Accounting Policies

The accounting and reporting policies of Peoples conform to US GAAP and to general practices within the financial services industry. The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. Management has identified the accounting policies that, due to the judgments, estimates and assumptions inherent in those policies, are critical to an understanding of Peoples’ Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion and Analysis at June 30, 2012, which were unchanged from the policies disclosed in Peoples’ 2011 Form 10-K.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

As more fully discussed in Peoples’ 2011 Form 10-K, goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least annually and updated quarterly if management believes there are indicators of potential impairment. Peoples performs its required annual impairment test as of June 30 each year.

At June 30, 2012, management performed its annual impairment test of Peoples’ recorded goodwill. The methodology and significant assumptions made by management were consistent with those disclosed in Peoples’ 2011 Form 10-K. Based on its analysis at June 30, 2012, management concluded no goodwill impairment existed since the fair value of Peoples’ single reporting unit exceeded its carrying value. The analysis indicated any of the following situations would cause a decline in the fair value of Peoples’ reporting unit below its book value: (1) a 5% sustained decline in future cash flows or (2) a 100 basis point increase in the discount rate.

Summary of Recent Transactions and Events

The following is a summary of recent transactions and events that have impacted or are expected to impact Peoples’ results of operations or financial condition:

◦

During the second quarter of 2012, Peoples became more active with its merger and acquisition activities. These actions included the pending merger transactions with Sistersville Bancorp, Inc. ("Sistersville") and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Federal Federal Savings Bank, and the purchase of a small financial advisory book of business in Wood County, West Virginia. Both of these transactions are more fully described in Note 5 of the Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. In addition, Peoples' management team continues to evaluate other acquisition opportunities involving banks, insurance agencies and wealth management providers located in Ohio, West Virginia and Kentucky. As a result, Peoples incurred $207,000 of acquisition-related expenses, primarily fees for legal and other professional services, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012. Approximately half of

Table of Contents

these costs related to acquisition opportunities that management determined did not meet Peoples' criteria and thus negotiations were terminated prior to completion.


◦	As described in Note 8 of the Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements, Peoples incurred settlement charges of $353,000 during the second quarter of 2012 due to the aggregate amount of lump-sum distributions to participants exceeding the threshold for recognizing such charges during the second quarter. No such charges were recognized in the first half of prior years.

◦

In the first quarter of 2012, Peoples prepaid $35 million of wholesale borrowings using short-term funds, which resulted in prepayment charges of $3.1 million. These borrowings had an average cost of 3.09% and consisted of both term repurchase agreements and advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank. The impact of the prepayment charges on first quarter earnings was offset by $3.2 million in gains from the sale of $60.5 million in investment securities. The securities sold were primarily mortgage-backed securities issued by U.S. government-sponsored agencies. The proceeds of these investment securities sales were reinvested into other securities with similar duration, credit risk and yield.

◦

In 2009, Peoples received $39.0 million of new equity capital under the U.S. Treasury’s TARP Capital Purchase Program. The investment was in the form of newly-issued non-voting cumulative perpetual preferred shares and a related 10-year warrant to purchase common shares sold by Peoples to the U.S. Treasury (the “TARP Capital Investment”). On February 2, 2011, Peoples repurchased $21.0 million of the preferred shares held by the U.S. Treasury and the remaining $18.0 million were repurchased on December 28, 2011 (collectively, the "TARP Capital Redemption"). On February 15, 2012, Peoples completed the repurchase of the warrant for an aggregate price of $1.2 million, which was recognized as a direct reduction in the common stock component of Peoples' stockholders' equity.

◦

Since the second quarter of 2011, Peoples has experienced generally improving trends in several asset quality metrics, after a three-year trend of higher credit losses and non-performing assets than Peoples' long-term historical levels. Additionally, the amount of criticized loans has decreased due in part to Peoples upgrading the loan quality ratings of various commercial loans. These conditions have resulted in lower provisions for loan losses. However, unfavorable economic conditions within Peoples' market area, coupled with sustained weakness in commercial real estate values, continues to place stress on certain industries and segments of Peoples' loan portfolio, such as the hospitality sector.

◦

Peoples' net interest income and margin are impacted by changes in market interest rates based upon actions taken by the Federal Reserve Board either directly or through its Open Market Committee. These actions include changing its target Federal Funds Rate (the interest rate at which banks lend money to each other), Discount Rate (the interest rate charged to banks for money borrowed from the Federal Reserve Bank) and longer-term market interest rates (primarily U.S. Treasury securities). Longer-term market interest rates also are affected by the demand for U.S. Treasury securities. The resulting changes in the yield curve slope have a direct impact on reinvestment rates for Peoples' earning assets.


◦	The Federal Reserve Board has maintained its target Federal Funds Rate at a historically low level of 0% to 0.25% since December 2008 and has maintained the Discount Rate at 0.75% since December 2010. The Federal Reserve Board continues to indicate there is the potential for these short-term rates to remain unchanged until late 2014.

◦

Since late 2008, the Federal Reserve Board has taken various actions to lower longer-term market interest rates as a means of stimulating the economy – a policy commonly referred to as “quantitative easing”. These actions have included the buying and selling of mortgage-backed and other debt securities through its open market operations. As a result, the slope of the U.S. Treasury yield curve has fluctuated significantly. Substantial flattening occurred in late 2008, in mid-2010 and since early third quarter of 2011, while moderate steepening occurred in the second half of 2009 and late 2010.

The impact of these transactions and events, where material, is discussed in the applicable sections of this Management’s Discussion and Analysis.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Net income available to common shareholders for the three months ended June 30, 2012, was $5.0 million, or $0.47 per diluted common share, versus $2.7 million and $0.26 per diluted common share a year ago. On a year-to-date basis, net income available to common shareholders was $11.7 million through June 30, 2012, compared to $4.0 million a year ago, representing earnings per diluted common share of $1.10 and $0.38, respectively. The higher earnings compared to the prior year was attributable to a mix of improved operating performance, plus the impact of continued asset quality improvement.

In the second quarter of 2012, Peoples realized a $1.1 million recovery of loan losses and $3.3 million recovery on a year-to-date basis through June 30, 2012, as several asset quality metrics maintained favorable trends. In comparison, Peoples recorded provisions for loan losses of $2.3 million and $7.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively.

Net interest income was $13.6 million in the second quarter of 2012, compared to $13.4 million for both the linked and year ago quarters. This improvement occurred as Peoples reduced funding costs which caused a greater decrease in interest expense than the decline experienced in interest income due to lower reinvestment rates. On a year-to-date basis, net interest income of $27.0 million was comparable with the prior year period. Peoples has maintained a relatively stable net interest margin of 3.42% through six months of 2012 despite lower long-term interest rates.

Non-interest income, which excludes gains and losses on investment securities, asset disposals and other transactions, was up 8% for both the quarter and on a year-to-date basis, as strong revenue generation occurred in several major sources. On a linked quarter basis, non-interest income was down 6%, due entirely to the recognition of $919,000 in annual performance-based insurance revenue during the first quarter.

Total non-interest expense was $15.7 million for the second quarter of 2012, up 4% from the linked quarter and 7% year-over-year. These increases were primarily caused by the pension settlement charges associated with lump-sum distributions and acquisition-related costs. Other significant contributing factors to the increase in non-interest expenses compared to the prior year were $355,000 of additional incentive and sales-based compensation, plus a $100,000 contribution to Peoples' private charitable foundation.

At June 30, 2012, total assets were $1.83 billion versus $1.79 billion at year-end 2011, with the increase due mostly to higher net loan balances. Gross portfolio loan balances grew $16.8 million during the first six months of 2012 as a result of commercial lending opportunities within Peoples' market area. The allowance for loan losses decreased $3.8 million to $19.9 million, or 2.09% of gross loans, compared to $23.7 million and 2.53% at December 31, 2011. Total investment securities were up $16.3 million at June 30, 2012, compared to $669.2 million at the prior year-end.

Total liabilities were $1.62 billion at June 30, 2012, up $19.5 million for the quarter and $29.2 million since December 31, 2011. Retail deposit balances experienced continued growth during the second quarter of 2012, increasing $19.2 million since the prior quarter-end and $76.6 million compared to year-end 2011. Non-interest-bearing deposits comprised 20.0% of total retail deposits versus 18.6% at year-end 2011. At June 30, 2012, total borrowed funds were $172.4 million, down $44.1 million compared to the prior year-end, as Peoples repaid $35 million in long-term borrowing during the first quarter.

At June 30, 2012, total stockholders' equity was $214.6 million, up $8.0 million since December 31, 2011. Earnings exceeded dividends declared by $9.3 million. The resulting increase in stockholders' equity was mostly offset by the impact of Peoples repurchasing the warrant previously held by the U.S. Treasury. Regulatory capital ratios remained significantly higher than "well capitalized" minimums. Peoples' Tier 1 Common Capital ratio increased to 13.92% at June 30, 2012, while the Total Risk-Based Capital ratio was 17.27% versus 16.20% at December 31, 2011.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Interest Income

Net interest income, the amount by which interest income exceeds interest expense, remains Peoples’ largest source of revenue. The amount of net interest income earned by Peoples each quarter is affected by various factors, including changes in market interest rates due to the Federal Reserve Board’s monetary policy, the level and degree of pricing competition for both loans and deposits in Peoples’ markets, and the amount and composition of Peoples’ earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.

Net interest margin, which is calculated by dividing fully tax-equivalent (“FTE”) net interest income by average interest-earning assets, serves as an important measurement of the net revenue stream generated by the volume, mix and pricing of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. FTE net interest income is calculated by increasing interest income to convert tax-exempt income earned on obligations of states and political subdivisions to the pre-tax equivalent of taxable income using a 35% federal statutory tax rate. The following table details the calculation of FTE net interest income:

The yield curve flattening during the second quarter of 2012 placed greater downward pressure on Peoples' net interest income and margin. However, net interest margin was held stable in the first half of 2012, due in part to recent actions taken to reduce funding costs given the impact of lower long-term interest rates on asset yields.

The yield on investment securities experienced further decline in the second quarter of 2012, as the impact of lower reinvestment rates was magnified by higher levels of principal pre-payments within mortgage-backed securities. During the first half of 2012, the average monthly principal cash flow received by Peoples from its investment portfolio was approximately $12 million, compared to a monthly average of approximately $10 million during the same period in 2011. Peoples' loan portfolio has generally stabilized, due to modest loan growth over the prior two quarters.

Peoples' funding costs in the second quarter of 2012 reflect a full quarter's impact of the debt restructuring completed in the linked quarter. Funding costs also have benefited from the maturity of $81 million in high-cost CDs which were replaced with lower-cost funds. Most of these CDs were part of a special product offering in 2008 and had an average cost of 3.87%. The majority of these high-cost CDs matured during the final two quarters of 2011, with $22.0 million at an average rate of 4.22% maturing during the first quarter of 2012.

Detailed information regarding changes in the Consolidated Balance Sheets can be found under appropriate captions of the “FINANCIAL CONDITION” section of this discussion. Additional information regarding Peoples' interest rate risk and the potential impact of interest rate changes on Peoples' results of operations and financial condition can be found later in this discussion under the caption “Interest Rate Sensitivity and Liquidity”.

Provision for Loan Losses

The following table details Peoples’ provision for loan losses:

(a) Presented on an annualized basis

The provision for, or recovery of, loan losses recorded represents the amount needed to maintain the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses based on management’s formal quarterly analysis of the loan portfolio and procedural methodology that estimates the amount of probable credit losses. This process considers various factors that affect losses, such as changes in Peoples’ loan quality, historical loss experience and current economic conditions. The recovery of loan losses recorded during the first half of 2012 was driven mostly by continued improving trends in various credit quality metrics, including historical loss trends and level of criticized loans.

Additional information regarding changes in the allowance for loan losses and loan credit quality can be found later in this discussion under the caption “Allowance for Loan Losses”.

Net Other Gains (Losses)

The following table details the other gains and losses recognized by Peoples:



	Three Months Ended									Six Months Ended

Net other losses	$	(43	)	$	(3,062	)	$	(556	)	$	(3,105	)	$	(496	)

The net losses on OREO for the second quarters of 2012 and 2011 were due mostly to write-downs on commercial properties whose fair value had declined. The losses in the second quarter of 2011 were partially offset by $248,000 in gains

Table of Contents

from sales of other properties. Also in the second quarter of 2011, Peoples sold two commercial real estate loans, with an aggregate carrying value of $1.0 million and secured by property located outside Peoples' primary market area, at modest gains.

Non-Interest Income

Insurance income comprised the largest portion of second quarter 2012 non-interest income. The following table details Peoples’ insurance income:



	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2012		March 31, 2012		June 30, 2011		June 30, 2012

Total insurance income	$	2,438	$	2,951	$	2,165	$	5,389	$	4,997

Peoples' property and casualty insurance commission income benefited from a high retention rate for existing insurance customers and, to a lesser extent, improving pricing margins within the industry. The bulk of performance-based commissions typically are recorded annually in the first quarter and are based on a combination of factors, such as loss experience of insurance policies sold, production volumes, and overall financial performance of the individual insurance carriers.

Deposit account service charges continued to comprise a sizable portion of Peoples' non-interest income. The following table details Peoples’ deposit account service charges:



	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2012		March 31, 2012		June 30, 2011		June 30, 2012
(Dollars in thousands)	June 30, 2012		March 31, 2012		June 30, 2011		2012		2011
Overdraft and non-sufficient funds fees	$	1,894	$	1,740	$	2,070	$	3,634	$	3,788
Account maintenance fees	315		321		353		636		606

Total deposit account service charges	$	2,230	$	2,237	$	2,454	$	4,467	$	4,628

The amount of deposit account service charges, particularly fees for overdrafts and non-sufficient funds, is largely dependent on the timing and volume of customer activity. Peoples typically experiences a lower volume of overdraft and non-sufficient funds fees annually in the first quarter attributable to customers receiving income tax refunds, while volumes generally increase in the fourth quarter in connection with the holiday shopping season. Account maintenance fees continue to benefit from Peoples' new consumer checking account product offering and pricing structure implemented during the first quarter of 2011.

Peoples' fiduciary and brokerage revenues continue to be based primarily upon the value of assets under management. The following tables detail Peoples’ trust and investment income and related assets under management:

Over the last several quarters, Peoples has continued to attract new managed funds, due in part to the addition of experienced financial advisors in previously underserved market areas. Peoples also added approximately $20 million in brokerage assets during the second quarter 2012 in connection with the acquisition completed. However, the U.S. financial markets experienced a general decline during the second quarter, which offset much of the impact of the new business generated by Peoples.

Mortgage banking income was up significantly in the second quarter of 2012 compared to both the linked and prior year quarters. Through six months of 2012, mortgage banking income was 87% higher than the same period in 2011. These increases were the result of higher production volumes driven mostly by refinancing activity. In the second quarter of 2012, Peoples sold approximately $32 million of loans to the secondary market compared to $23 million in the linked quarter and $10 million for the second quarter of 2011. Through six months, Peoples sold $55 million of loans in 2012 versus $26 million in 2011.

Non-Interest Expense

Salaries and employee benefit costs remain Peoples’ largest non-interest expense, accounting for approximately half of total non-interest expense. The following table details Peoples’ salaries and employee benefit costs:



	Three Months Ended									Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2012			March 31, 2012			June 30, 2011			June 30, 2012

Payroll taxes and other employment costs	525			728			700			1,253			1,460
Total salaries and employee benefit costs	$	8,415		$	8,245		$	7,953		$	16,660		$	15,580
Full-time equivalent employees:
Actual at end of period	494			499			537			494			537
Average during the period	498			506			537			503			537

Base salaries and wages through six months of 2012 have benefited from the reduction in full-time equivalent employees in recent quarters as part of Peoples' expense management efforts. For both the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, sales-based and incentive compensation was significantly higher than the prior year period due primarily to expense accruals associated with corporate incentive plans, which are tied largely to Peoples' financial performance. Peoples also has incurred higher sales-based compensation corresponding with increased sales production within its mortgage banking, insurance and wealth management activities. This additional expense accounted for the linked quarter increase in sales-based and incentive compensation and contributed to the year-over-year increases.

Employee benefit costs for the second quarter of 2012 benefited from lower employee medical benefit plan expenses, which are tied to claims activity, compared to both the linked and prior year quarters. These decreases nearly offset the impact of pension settlement charges incurred during the second quarter of 2012. Management expects additional pension settlement charges in each of the final two quarters of 2012. As previously disclosed in Peoples' 2011 Form 10-K, Peoples incurred settlement charges in the third and fourth quarters of 2011. The amount of settlement charges for the final two quarters of 2012 currently is expected to be substantially lower than the amounts incurred for the same period of 2011.

Second quarter 2012 stock-based compensation expense included $153,000 of additional expense relating to equity-based incentive awards granted to key employees in prior years. Much of this additional expense was the result of actual forfeitures being lower than previously estimated, while a lesser portion related to awards granted in the first quarter of 2011

Table of Contents

with performance-based vesting conditions. In prior quarters, Peoples did not record any expense related to these performance-based awards since management had determined it was not probable these awards would vest. However, the continued strong earnings performance in the second quarter of 2012 led management to conclude it was now probable these awards would vest. Under US GAAP, Peoples was required to recognize the entire pro rata expense relating to these awards since the grant date in the second quarter. Stock-based compensation expense for the first quarter of 2012 included the entire cost of awards with time-based vesting which were granted in the first quarter to employees eligible for retirement on the grant date. As a result of these two factors, stock-based compensation expense is expected to be lower in future quarters absent additional grants.

Peoples’ net occupancy and equipment expense was comprised of the following:

Total net occupancy and equipment expense	$	1,503	$	1,432	$	1,472	$	2,935	$	2,973

Marketing expense, which includes advertising, donation and other public relations costs, was up year-over-year for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2012. These variances were the result of contributions made to Peoples Bancorp Foundation Inc., a private foundation established by Peoples in 2004 to make charitable contributions to organizations within Peoples' primary market area. In both the first and second quarters of 2012, Peoples made a $100,000 contribution to its foundation, compared to no contributions in either period of 2011.

In the first half of 2012, Peoples experienced a steady increase in electronic banking expense corresponding with debit card usage by customers. However, the additional expenses have been more than offset by higher electronic banking revenue during this period. As a result, management considers the expense increase reasonable.

Peoples' efficiency ratio, calculated as non-interest expense less amortization of other intangible assets divided by FTE net interest income plus non-interest income, was 69.61% for the second quarter of 2012 and 67.52% through six months of 2012. Both of these ratios were higher than the same periods in 2011, due mostly to the acquisition-related costs and timing of pension settlement charges, which Peoples began incurring one quarter earlier this year than in 2011. Management continues to target an efficiency ratio in the range of 66% to 68% for 2012.

Income Tax Expense

For the six months ended June 30, 2012, Peoples recorded income tax expense of $5.6 million, for an effective tax rate of 32.2%. This effective tax rate represents management's current estimate of the rate for the entire year. In comparison, Peoples recorded income tax expense of $1.4 million for the same period in 2011, for an effective tax rate of 22.3%. The key driver of the higher effective tax rate was the year-over-year increase in pre-tax earnings.

Pre-Provision Net Revenue

Pre-provision net revenue ("PPNR") has become a key financial measure used by federal bank regulatory agencies when assessing the capital adequacy of financial institutions. PPNR is defined as net interest income plus non-interest income minus non-interest expense. Consistent with US GAAP, the calculation of PPNR includes all gains and losses arising from normal operating activities, such as the sale of loans and OREO as well as the disposal of bank premises and equipment. As a result, PPNR represents the earnings capacity that can be either retained in order to build capital or used to absorb unexpected losses and preserve existing capital.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Cash and Cash Equivalents

At June 30, 2012, Peoples' interest-bearing deposits in other banks were down compared to both the linked quarter and prior year end. These decreases were largely the result of no excess cash reserves being maintained at the Federal Reserve Bank. In comparison, Peoples maintained excess cash reserves of $4.8 million and $4.4 million at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The amount of excess cash reserves maintained is dependent upon Peoples' daily liquidity position, which is driven primarily by changes in deposit and loan balances.

Through six months of 2012, Peoples' total cash and cash equivalents decreased $5.3 million, as cash used in Peoples' investing activities exceeded the $17.6 million of cash generated by operating activities and $16.5 million of cash generated by financing activities. Investing activities used $39.4 million of cash to fund the $17.5 million net loan growth, while purchases of investment securities exceeded the proceeds from sales and principal payments by $21.8 million. Within Peoples' financing activities, deposit growth generated $67.2 million of cash which was used primarily to reduce borrowed funds by $47.2 million and to repurchase the warrant held by the U.S Treasury.

In comparison, Peoples’ operating activities in the six months of 2011 provided net cash of $23.3 million, while investing and financing activities used $15.6 million and $44.8 million, respectively, producing a $37.0 million decrease in total cash and cash equivalents. Net cash used by investing activities consisted of purchases of securities in the investment portfolio, which was partially offset by $11.9 million of principal runoff from the loan portfolio. The TARP Capital Redemption and a $18.3 million reduction in borrowed funds accounted for most of the net cash used by Peoples' financing activities.

Further information regarding the management of Peoples' liquidity position can be found later in this discussion under “Interest Rate Sensitivity and Liquidity.”

Peoples has maintained the size of its investment portfolio over the last several quarters due to the lack of meaningful loan growth. In the first half of 2012, Peoples continued to designate additional securities as "held-to-maturity" at the time of their purchase. For each security, management has made the determination Peoples would hold these securities until maturity and concluded Peoples had the ability to do so.

Peoples' investment in residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities largely consists of securities either guaranteed by the U.S. government or issued by U.S. government-sponsored agencies, such as Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. The remaining portion of Peoples' mortgage-backed securities consists of securities issued by other entities, including other financial institutions, which are not guaranteed by the U.S. government. The amount of these “non-agency” securities included in the residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities totals above is as follows:

In the third quarter of 2011, Peoples sold residential mortgage-backed securities which were showing signs of increased stress, which caused the decline in this portion of the portfolio compared to June 30, 2011. Additionally, management continues to reinvest the principal runoff from the non-agency securities into U.S agency investments, which accounted for the decline experienced in prior quarters. At June 30, 2012, Peoples' non-agency portfolio consisted entirely of first lien residential and commercial mortgages, with nearly all of the underlying loans in these securities originated prior to 2004 and possessing fixed interest rates. Management continues to monitor the non-agency portfolio closely for leading indicators of increasing stress and will continue to be proactive in taking actions to mitigate such risk when necessary.

Commercial real estate loan balances were essentially unchanged on a linked quarter basis but decreased slightly since year-end 2011. The year-to-date decline occurred as a result of two impaired relationships with aggregate principal balances of $8.1 million being paid off in the first quarter of 2012. Commercial and industrial loan balances continued to experience steady growth during the first half of 2012 due to commercial lending opportunities within Peoples' primary market area. The majority of Peoples' residential mortgage originations continues to be sold to the secondary market, due to customer preference for long-term, fixed-rate loans. Consumer loan balances, which consist mostly of loans to finance automobile purchases, have increased in 2012 due to Peoples placing greater emphasis on its consumer lending activity in recent quarters.

Loan Concentration

Peoples categorizes its commercial loans according to standard industry classifications and monitors for concentrations in a single industry or multiple industries that could be impacted by changes in economic conditions in a similar manner. Peoples' commercial lending activities continue to be spread over a diverse range of businesses from all sectors of the economy, with no single industry comprising over 10% of Peoples' total loan portfolio.

Loans secured by commercial real estate, including commercial construction loans, continue to comprise approximately half of Peoples' loan portfolio. The following table provides information regarding the largest concentrations of commercial real estate loans within the loan portfolio at June 30, 2012:

Peoples' commercial lending activities continue to focus on lending opportunities inside its primary and secondary market areas within Ohio, West Virginia and Kentucky. In all other states, the aggregate outstanding balances of commercial loans in each state was less than $4.0 million at both June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The amount of the allowance for loan losses at the end of each period represents management's estimate of expected losses from existing loans based upon its formal quarterly analysis of the loan portfolio. While this process involves allocations being made to specific loans and pools of loans, the entire allowance is available for all losses incurred within the loan portfolio. The following details management's allocation of the allowance for loan losses:



(Dollars in thousands)	June 30, 2012			March 31, 2012			December 31, 2011			September 30, 2011			June 30, 2011

As a percentage of total loans	2.09		%	2.25		%	2.53		%	2.65		%	2.68		%

The significant allocations to commercial loans reflect the higher credit risk associated with this type of lending and the size of this loan category in relationship to the entire loan portfolio. In the second quarter of 2012, the allowance for loan losses continued to be reduced as a result of sustained improvement in several credit quality metrics. Specifically, Peoples has experienced a steady decrease in criticized loans, which are those classified as watch, substandard or doubtful, due to principal paydowns and improvements in borrowers' financial conditions. Net charge-offs also remained at or below Peoples' long-term historical rate for the fourth consecutive quarter. Both of these factors had a direct impact on the estimated loss rates used to determine the appropriate allocations for commercial loans.

The allowance allocated to the residential real estate and consumer loan categories is based upon Peoples' allowance methodology for homogeneous pools of loans. The fluctuations in these allocations have been directionally consistent with the changes in loan quality, loss experience and loan balances in these categories.

The decrease in nonaccrual loans during the second quarter of 2012 was due mostly to Peoples restoring two commercial loan relationships to accrual status as a result of improvement in the borrowers' financial condition. These relationships had an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $2.6 million at March 31, 2012, of which $1.5 million was commercial and industrial loans and the remainder was commercial real estate loans. During the first quarter of 2012, nonaccrual commercial real estate loans with aggregate balances of $8.1 million at year-end 2011 were paid off, which contributed to the year-to-date decline. These reductions also drove a decrease in total criticized loans, which were down 29% at June 30, 2012 versus year-end 2011.

The majority of Peoples' nonaccrual commercial real estate loans continues to consist of non-owner occupied commercial properties and real estate development projects. In general, management believes repayment of these loans is dependent on the sale of the underlying collateral. As such, the carrying values of these loans are ultimately supported by management's estimate of the net proceeds Peoples would receive upon the sale of the collateral. These estimates are based in part on market values provided by independent, licensed or certified appraisers periodically, but no less frequently than annually. Given the sustained weakness in commercial real estate values, management continues to monitor changes in real estate values from quarter-to-quarter and updates its estimates as needed based on observable changes in market prices and/or updated appraisals for similar properties.

During the first half of 2012, Peoples maintained its recent deposit strategy of growing low-cost core deposits, such as checking and savings accounts, and reducing its reliance on higher-cost, non-core deposits, such as certificates of deposit (“CDs”) and brokered deposits. This strategy has included more selective pricing of long-term CDs, governmental/public fund deposits and similar non-core deposits, as well as not renewing maturing brokered deposits. These actions accounted for much of the changes in deposit balances over the last several quarters.

The increase in retail CDs during the second quarter of 2012 primarily reflects higher balances in funds placed within the Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service, or CDARS. These balances can fluctuate significantly from quarter-to-quarter depending on customer demand and rates offered by within CDARS. Non-interest-bearing deposits continued to grow in the second quarter of 2012, due largely to higher commercial deposit balances. The increased balances reflect Peoples' increased focus on obtaining the deposit relationships of its commercial clients. Since year-end 2011, non-interest-bearing commercial deposit balances have increased $18.4 million, of which $6.3 million of this growth occurred during the second quarter.

Borrowed Funds

The following table details Peoples’ short-term and long-term borrowings:

Total long-term borrowings	106,471		106,652		142,312		143,970		151,703
Subordinated notes held by subsidiary trust	22,618		22,609		22,600		22,592		22,583
Total borrowed funds	$	172,436	$	174,166	$	216,555	$	225,117	$	213,540

Peoples' short-term FHLB advances consisted entirely of overnight borrowings being maintained in connection with the management of Peoples' daily liquidity position. The reduction in the long-term borrowings since year-end 2011 was due to Peoples prepaying a $10 million FHLB advance and $25 million of national market repurchase agreements during the first quarter of 2012. Peoples expects to continue using funds generated from other sources, such as retail deposit growth, to repay maturing long-term borrowings and to minimize the need for overnight borrowings.

Capital/Stockholders’ Equity

During the second quarter of 2012, Peoples' total stockholders' equity and regulatory capital measures benefited from earnings exceeding dividends declared. In addition, the fair value of Peoples' available-for-sale securities increased during the quarter, resulting in a corresponding change in accumulated other comprehensive income. The increase in stockholders' equity through six months of 2012 was partially offset by the impact of Peoples repurchasing the warrant previously issued to the U.S. Treasury at a cost of $1.2 million.

At June 30, 2012, capital levels for both Peoples and Peoples Bank remained substantially higher than the minimum amounts needed to be considered "well capitalized" institutions under banking regulations. These higher capital levels reflect Peoples' desire to maintain strong capital positions to provide greater flexibility to work through the remaining asset quality issues plus provide capacity to grow the company.

The following table details Peoples' actual risk-based capital levels and corresponding ratios:



(Dollars in thousands)	June 30, 2012			March 31, 2012			December 31, 2011			September 30, 2011			June 30, 2011

Leverage ratio	10.18		%	10.05		%	9.45		%	10.37		%	10.10		%

During the second quarter of 2012, the federal bank regulatory agencies jointly issued three notices of proposed rulemaking ("NPRs") that would revise and replace the agencies' current capital rules. The impact of these NPRs, if adopted, would result in higher risk-based and leverage capital requirements consistent with agreements reached by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, referred to as Basel III. Most of the provisions contained within the NPRs would be phased-in over periods ranging from 3 to 10 years. Management continues to evaluate the potential impact of the NPRs to ensure the capital levels of both Peoples and Peoples Bank remain higher than the amounts needed to be considered "well capitalized". However, the final regulations ultimately applicable to Peoples and Peoples Bank may be substantially different from those contemplated in the NPRs.

In addition to traditional capital measurements, management uses tangible capital measures to evaluate the adequacy of Peoples' stockholders' equity. Such ratios represent non-GAAP financial information since their calculation removes the impact of intangible assets acquired through acquisitions on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Management believes this information is useful to investors since it facilitates the comparison of Peoples' operating performance, financial condition and trends to peers, especially those without a similar level of intangible assets to that of Peoples. Further, intangible assets generally are difficult to convert into cash, especially during a financial crisis, and could decrease substantially in value should there be deterioration in the overall franchise value. As a result, tangible common equity represents a conservative measure of the capacity for a company to incur losses but remain solvent. The following table reconciles the calculation of these non-GAAP financial measures to amounts reported in Peoples' Consolidated Financial Statements:

Interest Rate Sensitivity and Liquidity

While Peoples is exposed to various business risks, the risks relating to interest rate sensitivity and liquidity are major risks that can materially impact future results of operations and financial condition due to their complexity and dynamic nature. The objective of Peoples' asset/liability management (“ALM”) function is to measure and manage these risks in order to optimize net interest income within the constraints of prudent capital adequacy, liquidity and safety. This objective requires Peoples to focus on interest rate risk exposure and adequate liquidity through its management of the mix of assets and liabilities, their related cash flows and the rates earned and paid on those assets and liabilities. Ultimately, the ALM function is intended to guide management in the acquisition and disposition of earning assets and selection of appropriate funding sources.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk (“IRR”) is one of the most significant risks arising in the normal course of business of financial services companies like Peoples. IRR is the potential for economic loss due to future interest rate changes that can impact both the earnings stream as well as market values of financial assets and liabilities. Peoples' exposure to IRR is due primarily to differences in the maturity or repricing of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. In addition, other factors, such as prepayments of loans and investment securities or early withdrawal of deposits, can expose Peoples to IRR and increase interest costs or reduce revenue streams.

Table of Contents

Peoples has assigned overall management of IRR to its Asset-Liability Committee (the “ALCO”), which has established an IRR management policy that sets minimum requirements and guidelines for monitoring and managing the level and amount of IRR. The methods used by the ALCO to assess IRR remain unchanged from those disclosed in Peoples' 2011 Form 10-K.

The following table shows the estimated changes in net interest income and the economic value of equity based upon a standard, parallel shock analysis (dollars in thousands):



Increase in Interest Rate	Estimated Increase in Net Interest Income								Estimated (Decrease) Increase in Economic Value of Equity
(in Basis Points)	June 30, 2012				December 31, 2011				June 30, 2012					December 31, 2011
300	$	9,454	19.1	%	$	7,061	13.9	%	$	(8,289	)	(3.7	)%	$	(8,855	)	(4.1	)%
200	8,055		16.3	%	6,250		12.3	%	3,347			1.5	%	2,036			0.9	%
100	5,572		11.3	%	4,548		9.0	%	9,576			4.3	%	7,728			3.6	%

At June 30, 2012, Peoples' Consolidated Balance Sheet remained positioned for a rising interest rate environment, as illustrated by the potential increase in net interest income shown in the above table. While parallel interest rate shock scenarios are useful in assessing the level of IRR inherent in Peoples' consolidated balance sheet, interest rates typically move in a non-parallel manner, with differences in the timing, direction and magnitude of changes in short-term and long-term interest rates. Thus, any benefit that could occur as a result of the Federal Reserve Board increasing short-term interest rates in future quarters could be offset by an inverse movement in long-term interest rates.

Liquidity

In addition to IRR management, another major objective of the ALCO is to maintain a sufficient level of liquidity. The methods used by the ALCO to monitor and evaluate the adequacy of Peoples' liquidity position remain unchanged from those disclosed in Peoples' 2011 Form 10-K.

At June 30, 2012, Peoples had liquid assets of $199.0 million, which represented 10.1% of total assets and unfunded commitments. This amount exceeded the minimal level of $39.2 million, or 2% of total loans and unfunded commitments, currently required under Peoples' liquidity policy. Peoples also had an additional $49.8 million of unpledged securities not included in the measurement of liquid assets.

Management believes the current balance of cash and cash equivalents and anticipated cash flows from the investment portfolio, along with the availability of other funding sources, will allow Peoples to meet anticipated cash obligations, as well as special needs and off-balance sheet commitments.

Off-Balance Sheet Activities and Contractual Obligations

Peoples routinely engages in activities that involve, to varying degrees, elements of risk that are not reflected in whole or in part in the Consolidated Financial Statements. These activities are part of Peoples' normal course of business and include traditional off-balance sheet credit-related financial instruments, interest rate contracts and commitments to make additional capital contributions in low-income housing tax credit investments. Traditional off-balance sheet credit-related financial instruments continue to represent the most significant off-balance sheet exposure. The following table details the total contractual amount of loan commitments and standby letters of credit:



(Dollars in thousands)	June 30, 2012		March 31, 2012		December 31, 2011		September 30, 2011		June 30, 2011
Home equity lines of credit	$	42,043	$	40,499	$	44,850	$	44,481	$	39,758
Unadvanced construction loans	17,578		18,118		10,023		11,954		16,026
Other loan commitments	112,604		112,436		135,110		119,738		106,311
Loan commitments	172,225		171,053		189,983		176,173		162,095

Standby letters of credit	$	40,330	$	39,862	$	40,821	$	41,269	$	41,198

Management does not anticipate Peoples’ current off-balance sheet activities will have a material impact on its future results of operations and financial condition based on historical experience and recent trends.

The information called for by this Item 3 is provided under the caption “Interest Rate Sensitivity and Liquidity” under “ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION” in this Form 10-Q, and is incorporated herein by reference.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Peoples’ management, with the participation of Peoples’ President and Chief Executive Officer and Peoples’ Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, has evaluated the effectiveness of Peoples’ disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of June 30, 2012. Based upon that evaluation, Peoples’ President and Chief Executive Officer and Peoples’ Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer have concluded that:

(a)

information required to be disclosed by Peoples in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and other reports Peoples files or submits under the Exchange Act would be accumulated and communicated to Peoples’ management, including its President and Chief Executive Officer and its Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure;


(b)	information required to be disclosed by Peoples in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and other reports Peoples files or submits under the Exchange Act would be recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms; and


(c)	Peoples’ disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the fiscal quarter covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in Peoples’ internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during Peoples’ fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2012, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Peoples’ internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In the ordinary course of their respective businesses or operations, Peoples or one of its subsidiaries may be named as a plaintiff, a defendant, or a party to a legal proceeding or any of their respective properties may be subject to various pending and threatened legal proceedings and various actual and potential claims. In view of the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of such matters, Peoples cannot state what the eventual outcome of any such matters will be; however, based on current knowledge and after consultation with legal counsel, management believes these proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity of Peoples.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

There have been no material changes from those risk factors previously disclosed in “ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS” of Part I of Peoples’ 2011 Form 10-K. Those risk factors are not the only risks Peoples faces. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to management or that management currently deems to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect Peoples’ business, financial condition and/or operating results.
