EVANS BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2006 AND 2005
1. | ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | |
The accounting and reporting policies followed by Evans Bancorp, Inc. (the Company), a financial holding company, and its two direct, wholly-owned subsidiaries: (i) Evans National Bank (the Bank), and its subsidiaries, Evans National Leasing, Inc. (ENL) and Evans National Holding Corp. (ENHC); and (ii) Evans National Financial Services, Inc. (ENFS), and its subsidiary ENB Insurance Agency, Inc. (ENBI) and its subsidiaries, Frontier Claims Services, Inc. (FCS) and ENB Associates Inc. (ENB), in the preparation of the accompanying interim unaudited consolidated financial statements conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and with general practice within the banking industry. Except as the context otherwise requires, the Company and its direct and indirect subsidiaries are collectively referred to in this report as the Company. | ||
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and results of operations for the interim periods have been made. Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. | ||
The results of operations for the three month period ended March 31, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005. | ||
2. | SECURITIES | |
Securities which the Company has the positive ability and intent to hold to maturity are stated at amortized cost. Securities which the Company has identified as available-for-sale are stated at fair value with changes in fair value included as a component of stockholders equity. Available for sale securities are net of unrealized losses of $3.3 million and $2.1 million as of March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively. As of March 31, 2006, the securities portfolio did not contain any other than temporary declines in fair value. | ||
3. | ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN AND LEASE LOSSES | |
The allowance for loan and lease losses represents the amount charged against the Banks earnings to establish an allowance for probable loan and lease losses based on the Banks managements evaluation of the loan and lease portfolio. Factors considered by the Banks management in establishing the allowance include: the collectibility of individual loans and leases, current loan and lease concentrations, charge-off history, delinquent loan and lease percentages, input from regulatory agencies and general economic conditions. | ||
On a quarterly basis, management of the Bank meets to review and determine the adequacy of the allowance for loan and lease losses. In making this determination, the Banks management analyzes the ultimate collectibility of the loans and leases in its portfolio by incorporating feedback provided by the Banks internal loan staff, an independent internal loan review function and information provided by examinations performed by regulatory agencies. | ||
The analysis of the allowance for loan and lease losses is composed of three components: specific credit allocation, general portfolio allocation and subjectively by determined allocation. The specific credit allocation includes a detailed review of the credit in accordance with the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan and No. 118, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan Income Recognition and Disclosures, and allocation is made based on this analysis. The general portfolio allocation consists of an assigned reserve percentage based on the actual credit rating of the loan or lease. |
Table of Contents
The subjective portion of the allowance reflects managements evaluation of various conditions, and involves a higher degree of uncertainty because this component of the allowance is not identified with specific problem credits of portfolio segments. The conditions evaluated in connection with this component include the following: industry and regional conditions; seasoning of the loan and lease portfolio and changes in the composition of and growth in the loan and lease portfolio; the strength and duration of the business cycle; existing general economic and business conditions in the lending areas; credit quality trends in nonaccruing loans and leases; historical loan and lease charge-off experience; and the results of bank regulatory examinations. | ||
The following table sets forth information regarding the allowance for loan and lease losses for the three month periods ended March 31, 2006 and 2005. |

4. | PER SHARE DATA | |
The common stock per share information is based upon the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each period, retroactively adjusted for stock dividends and stock splits. The Companys potential dilutive securities included 1,633 dilutive shares for the three month period ended March 31, 2006. There were 3,054 dilutive shares for the three month period ended March 31, 2005. On February 22, 2006, the Company declared a cash dividend of $0.34 per share payable on April 3, 2006 to shareholders of record as of March 13, 2006. All share and per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect a 5% stock dividend paid in December 2005. | ||
Potential common shares that would have the effect of increasing diluted earnings per share are considered to be anti-dilutive. In accordance with SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share, these shares were not included in calculating diluted earnings per share. As of March 31, 2006 and 2005, there were 59 thousand and 27 thousand shares, respectively, that are not included in calculating diluted earnings per share because their effect was anti-dilutive. |

7. | CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND COMMITMENTS | |
The unaudited consolidated financial statements do not reflect various commitments and contingent liabilities, which arise in the normal course of business, and which involve elements of credit risk, interest rate risk and liquidity risk. These commitments and contingent liabilities consist of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. A summary of the Banks commitments and contingent liabilities at March 31, 2006 and 2005 is as follows: |
2006 | 2005 | |||||||
(in thousands) | ||||||||
Commitments to extend credit |
$ | 69,600 | $ | 58,098 | ||||
Standby letters of credit |
1,996 | 2,144 | ||||||
Total |
$ | 71,596 | $ | 60,242 | ||||
Commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit include some exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance of the customer. The Banks credit policies and procedures for credit commitments and financial guarantees are the same as those for extensions of credit that are recorded on the Companys unaudited consolidated balance sheets. Because these instruments have fixed maturity dates, and because they may expire without being drawn upon, they do not necessarily represent cash requirements of the Bank. The Bank has not incurred any losses on its commitments during the past two years. | ||
Certain lending commitments for construction residential mortgage loans are considered derivative instruments under the guidelines of SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. The changes in the fair value of these commitments due to interest rate risk are not recorded on the consolidated balance sheets as these derivatives are not considered material. | ||
The Company is subject to possible litigation proceedings in the normal course of business. As of March 31, 2006, there were no claims pending against the Company that management considered to be significant. | ||
8. | RECLASSIFICATIONS | |
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2005 consolidated financial statements to conform with the presentation used in 2006. | ||
9. | NET PERIODIC BENEFIT COSTS | |
The Bank has a defined benefit pension plan covering substantially all Company employees. The plan provides benefits that are based on the employees compensation and years of service. The Bank uses an actuarial method of amortizing prior service cost and unrecognized net gains or losses which result from actual experience and assumptions being different than those that are projected. The amortized method the Bank is using recognizes the prior service cost and net gains or losses over the average remaining service period of active employees. | ||
The Bank also maintains a nonqualified supplemental executive retirement plan covering certain members of the Companys senior management. The Bank uses an actuarial method of amortizing unrecognized net gains or losses which result from actual expense and assumptions being different than those that are projected. The amortization method the Bank uses recognizes the net gains or losses over the average remaining service period of active employees. | ||
The following table represents net periodic benefit costs recognized: |

10. | STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION |
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share Based Payment (SFAS
No. 123(R)). SFAS No. 123(R) supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees, and amends SFAS No. 95, Statement of Cash Flows. Generally, the fair value
approach in SFAS No. 123(R) is similar to the fair value approach described in SFAS No. 123.
In 2005, the Company used the Black-Scholes-Merton formula to estimate the fair value of
stock options granted to employees. The Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R), using the
modified-prospective method, beginning January 1, 2006. Based on the terms of its equity
compensation plans, the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R ) did not require the Company to record a
cumulative effect of adjustment. The Company also elected to continue to estimate the fair
value of stock options using the Black-Scholes-Merton formula.
In the first quarter of 2006, because the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123,
Stock-Based Compensation, and SFAS No. 123(R) were materially consistent under our equity
plans, the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) did not have a significant impact on our financial
position or our results of operations. Further, the Company believes the adoption of SFAS
No. 123(R) will not have a material impact on the Companys future stock-based compensation
expense.
Under the Companys 1999 Employee Stock Option and Long-Term Incentive Plan, as amended (the
Option Plan), the Company may grant options to officers, directors and key employees for
up to 289,406 shares of common stock (as adjusted for stock dividends). Under the Option
Plan, the exercise price of each option is not to be less than 100% of the market price of
the Companys stock on the date of grant and an options maximum term is ten years. The
Company normally issues shares out of its treasury for any
options exercised. The options have vesting schedules from 1 1/2 years through 9 years.
At March 31, 2006, there were a total of 196,970 shares available for grant under the Option
Plan.
As of December 31, 2005 there were 88,577 stock options outstanding under the Option Plan
with a weighted-average exercise price of $21.32. During the three month period ended March
31, 2006 there were no options granted, exercised, forfeited, or expired. At March 31, 2006
there were 38,502 options exercisable at a weighted average exercise price of $21.77, no
intrinsic value, and a weighted-average remaining contractual term of 8.10 years. At March
31, 2006 there were 88,577 stock options outstanding under the Option Plan with a
weighted-average exercise price of $21.32, no intrinsic value, and a weighted-average
remaining contractual term of 8.31 years.
On February 18, 2003, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted the Evans Bancorp, Inc.
Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the Purchase Plan). As of March 31, 2006, there were 89,863
shares of common stock available to issue to its full-time employees, nearly all of whom are
eligible to participate. Under the terms of the Purchase Plan, employees can choose each
year to have up to 15% of their annual base earnings withheld to purchase the Companys
common stock. The Company grants options on January 1 and July 1 of each year during the
term of the Purchase Plan. The purchase price of the stock is 85% of the lower of its price
on the grant date or the exercise date. Compensation cost is recognized for the fair value
of the employees purchase rights, which was estimated using the Black-Scholes-Merton model.
Table of Contents
As of March, 31, 2006, there was approximately $181 thousand of total unrecognized
compensation cost related to nonvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under
the plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.6
years. This expected cost does not include the impact of any future stock-based compensation
awards. The compensation cost charged against income for those plans was $30 thousand and
$47 thousand for three month periods ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
11. | RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS |
In May 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, a replacement
of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3 (SFAS No.
154). SFAS No. 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods financial statements
of a voluntary change in accounting principle unless it is impracticable. APB Opinion No. 20,
Accounting Changes, previously required that most voluntary changes in accounting principle
be recognized by including in net income of the period of the change the cumulative effect of
changing to the new accounting principle. SFAS No. 154 became effective for the Company on
January 1, 2006. The adoption of SFAS No. 154 did not have a material impact on the
consolidated financial statements. The Company will continue to apply the requirements of SFAS
No. 154 to any future accounting changes and error corrections.
ITEM 2 MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may contain certain forward-looking statements within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), and
Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), that involve
substantial risks and uncertainties. When used in this report, or in the documents incorporated by
reference herein, the words anticipate, believe, estimate, expect, intend, may, plan,
seek, and similar expressions identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking
statements include statements regarding the Companys business plans, prospects, growth and
operating strategies, statements regarding the asset quality of the Companys loan and investment
portfolios, and estimates of the Companys risks and future costs and benefits.
These forward-looking statements are based largely on the expectations of the Companys management
and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to general
economic conditions, either nationally or in the Companys market areas, that are worse than
expected; increased competition among depository or other financial institutions; inflation and
changes in the interest rate environment that reduce the Companys margins or reduce the fair value
of financial instruments; changes in laws or government regulations affecting financial
institutions, including changes in regulatory fees and capital requirements; the Companys ability
to enter new markets successfully and capitalize on growth opportunities; the Companys ability to
successfully integrate acquired entities; changes in accounting pronouncements and practices, as adopted by financial
institution regulatory agencies, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board; changes in consumer spending, borrowing and saving habits;
changes in the Companys organization, compensation and benefit plans; and other factors discussed
elsewhere in this Report on Form 10-Q, as well as in the Companys periodic reports filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). Many of these factors are beyond the Companys
control and are difficult to predict.
Because of these and other uncertainties, the Companys actual results, performance or achievements
could differ materially from those contemplated, expressed or implied by the forward-looking
statements contained herein. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made.
The Company undertakes no obligation, to publicly update or revise forward-looking information,
whether as a result of new, updated information, future events or otherwise.
APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
The Companys Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and follow general
practices within the industries in which it operates. Application of these principles requires
management to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the
Companys Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and
Table of Contents
Notes. These estimates, assumptions and
judgments are based on information available as of the date of the Unaudited Consolidated Financial
Statements. Accordingly, as this information changes, the Unaudited Consolidated Financial
Statements could reflect different estimates, assumptions and judgments. Certain policies
inherently have a greater reliance on the use of estimates, assumptions and judgments, and as such,
have a greater possibility of producing results that could be materially different than originally
reported. Estimates, assumptions and judgments are necessary when assets and liabilities are
required to be recorded at fair value, when a decline in the value of an asset not carried on the
financial statements at fair value warrants an impairment write-down or valuation reserve to be
established, or when an asset or liability needs to be recorded contingent upon a future event.
Carrying assets and liabilities at fair value inherently results in more financial statement
volatility. The fair values and the information used to record valuation adjustments for certain
assets and liabilities are based either on quoted market prices or are provided by other
third-party sources, when available. When third-party information is not available, valuation
adjustments are estimated in good faith by management primarily through the use of internal cash
flow modeling techniques.
The most significant accounting policies followed by the Company are presented in Note 1 to the
Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 in its Annual Report on Form 10-K.
These policies, along with the disclosures presented in the other Notes to the Companys Audited
Consolidated Financial Statements contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K and in this financial
review, provide information on how significant assets and liabilities are valued in the Companys
Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and how those values are determined.
Based on the valuation techniques used and the sensitivity of financial statement amounts to the
methods, assumptions and estimates underlying those amounts, management has identified the
determination of the allowance for loan and lease losses and valuation of goodwill to be the
accounting areas that require the most subjective or complex judgments, and as such, could be most
subject to revision as new information becomes available.
Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses
The allowance for loan and lease losses represents managements estimate of probable losses in the
Banks loan and lease portfolio. Determining the amount of the allowance for loan and lease losses
is considered a critical accounting estimate because it requires significant judgment on the part
of management and the use of estimates related to the amount and timing of expected future cash
flows on impaired loans and leases, estimated losses on pools of homogeneous loans and leases based
on historical loss experience and consideration of current economic trends and conditions, all of
which may be susceptible to significant change. The loan and lease portfolio also represents the
largest asset type on the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets. Note 1 to the Audited
Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 in its Annual Report on Form 10-K describes
the methodology used to determine the allowance for loan and lease losses.
Goodwill
The amount of goodwill reflected in the Companys Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements is
required to be tested by management for impairment on at least an annual basis. The test for
impairment of goodwill on the
identified reporting unit is considered a critical accounting estimate because it requires judgment
on the part of management and the use of estimates related to the growth assumptions and market
multiples used in the valuation model.
ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

Loan and Lease Activity
Total gross loans and leases grew to $261.5 million at March 31, 2006, reflecting a 0.6% or
$1.5 million increase from December 31, 2005. Gross loans and leases are net of $4.9 million and
$4.0 million unearned income on direct financing leases as of March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005,
respectively. Commercial loans and leases totaled $181.9 million at March 31, 2006, reflecting a
0.4% or $0.7 million decrease from December 31, 2005. Increases in direct financing leases of $3.7
million, were offset by declines in commercial real estate, installment loans and lines of credit.
Consumer loans totaled $78.9 million at March 31, 2006, reflecting a 2.8% or $2.1 million increase
from December 31, 2005. Increases in consumer real estate and home equity loans of $1.6 million and
$0.9
Table of Contents
million, respectively, were largely responsible for this increase. The Bank continues to sell
certain fixed rate residential mortgages originated below a designated interest level to the
Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA), while maintaining the servicing rights for those
mortgages. During the first quarter 2006, the Bank sold mortgages to FNMA totaling $0.5 million as
compared to $1.2 million during the first quarter 2005. At March 31, 2006, the Bank had a loan
servicing portfolio principal balance of $28.9 million upon which it earns servicing fees, compared
to $28.8 million at December 31, 2005.

Net charge-offs were $129 thousand in the first quarter of 2006 as compared to net recoveries
of $29 thousand in the first quarter of 2005. Non-performing loans and leases, defined as accruing
loans and leases greater than 90 days past due and non-accrual loans and leases, totaled 0.38% of
total loans and leases outstanding at March 31, 2006 as compared to 0.72 % at December 31, 2005.
The allowance for loan and lease losses totaled $3.4 million or 1.29% of total loans and leases
outstanding at March 31, 2006 as compared to $3.2 million or 1.23% of total loans and leases
outstanding at December 31, 2005.
The adequacy of the Companys allowance for loan and lease losses is reviewed quarterly by the
Companys management with consideration given to loan and lease concentrations, charge-off history,
delinquent loan and lease percentages, and general economic conditions. Management believes the
allowance for loan and lease losses is adequate for losses from existing loans and leases.

For the quarter ended March 31, 2006, gross interest income that would have been reported on
non-accruing loans and leases, had they been current, was $34 thousand. There was no interest
income included in net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 on non-accruing loans and
leases. Non-accruing commercial loans declined $0.6 million in the three month period ended March
31, 2006 due mainly to a $0.5 million recovery on collateral for one significant non-accrual loan.
Investing Activities
The Companys securities portfolio decreased by 4.0%, or $6.5 million, to approximately $153.5
million at March 31, 2006, as compared to approximately $160.0 million at December 31, 2005. The
decline in the securities portfolio was due in part to available funds being used for increased
lending, along with repayments of short term borrowings. The Company monitors extension and
prepayment risk in the portfolio to limit potential exposures. Management believes the average
expected life of the portfolio is 3.6 years as of March 31, 2006, as compared to 3.5 as of December
31, 2005. Available-for-sale securities with a total fair value of $145.9 million at March 31, 2006
were pledged as collateral to secure public deposits and for other purposes required or permitted
by law.
Funding Activities
Total deposits during the quarter ended March 31, 2006, increased 9.3% to $368.2 million at
March 31, 2006 from $336.8 million at December 31, 2005. Time deposits $100,000 and over increased
46.2% or $30.0
Table of Contents
million in the quarter due in large part to successful bidding on large municipal
deposits. Due to higher short-term interest rates, many municipalities have preferred short-term
time deposit funding as an investment option. Muni-vest deposits increased 39.1% or $10.8 million
due to the normal inflow of municipal tax receipts, which occurs during the first quarter of the
calendar year. Core deposits (all deposits excluding time deposits greater than $100,000)
increased 0.5% or $1.4 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2006. Demand deposits decreased
11.3%, NOW accounts decreased 7.0% and federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreement
to repurchase decreased 40.3% or $3.6 million from December 31, 2005, which is mainly attributable
to the pay down of federal funds purchased with the additional municipal funding garnered in the
first quarter of 2006. Balances in demand deposits, NOW accounts and securities sold under
agreement to repurchase vary from day to day based on customer transaction volume and represents
normal deposit activity.
The Company also uses borrowings from other correspondent banks and the Federal Home Loan Bank
of New York as sources of funding. There was no short-term borrowing at March 31, 2006 as compared
to $34.6 million at December 31, 2005. The decrease from December 31, 2005 is due largely to a
decline in short-term borrowing caused by seasonal fluctuations in municipal deposit accounts.
ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net Income
Net income was $1.4 million or $0.52 per basic and diluted share for the three months ended
March 31, 2006, as compared to $1.3 million or $0.46 per basic and diluted share for the same
period in 2005. Net income represented a return on average assets of 1.21% and 1.14% for the three
month periods ended March 31, 2006 and 2005. The return on average equity was 15.04% and 14.17% for
the three months periods ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
Other Operating Results
Net interest income for the three month period ended March 31, 2006 was $3.6 million, an
increase of $0.3 million over the same period in 2005, and is primarily as a result interest income
growth related to the loan and lease portfolio, offset by increased interest expense on deposits.
The net interest margin for the three month period ended March 31, 2006 was 3.49% as compared
to 3.42% for the same period in 2005. The increase was the result of a 65 basis point increase in
interest earning assets, mainly attributable to an increase in the volume of loans and leases as
well as increased yields on loans and leases. Interest free funds also contributed 43 basis points
in the three month period ended March 31, 2006 due to an increase in average demand deposits,
compared to a 25 basis point contribution in the same period of 2005. These
were partially offset by an increase in the Banks cost of interest-bearing liabilities, which
increased to 2.89% from 2.13% in 2005. Higher interest rates on federal funds purchased and time
deposits were the primary drivers of this increase in cost of funds.
The provision for loan and lease losses for the three month period ended March 31, 2006
increased to $282 thousand from $151 thousand for the same period in 2005. The increase was a
result of the Companys expanding direct financing lease portfolio through Evans National Leasing,
along with continued commercial loan growth. Commercial loans and direct financing leases tend to
have a higher credit risk than consumer loans. The Bank continues to retain a high percentage of
fixed rate residential loans originated during the three month period ended March 31, 2006 as
opposed to selling in the secondary markets, based on an improving interest rate environment.
Non-interest income was $3.2 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2006, an
increase of $0.1 million, or 4.2% over the same period in 2005. This was primarily a result of
increased insurance fee revenue for the three month period ended March 31, 2006, of $0.2 million or
7.4%, compared to the same period in 2005. The increased insurance fee revenue was primarily the
result of increased profit sharing revenue at ENBI in the first quarter of 2006. Also contributing
to the increase was increased fee income on the direct financing lease portfolio which has grown
significantly since the first quarter of 2005. This increase was offset by a $0.1 million decline
in gains on sales of securities, of which there were none in the three month period ended March 31,
2006.
Non interest expense was $4.5 million for each of the three month periods ended March 31, 2006
and 2005. Salary and employee benefit expense for the three month period ended March 31, 2006
increased $0.1 from the same period in 2005, due to Company growth and merit pay increases awarded
in early 2006. Advertising and public relations expense for the three month period ended March 31,
2006 declined $0.1 million from the same period in 2005, as expenses incurred in 2005 for the
Banks new North Buffalo branch opening were not repeated in 2006. Professional services expense
for the three month period ended March 31, 2006 declined $0.1 million from the same period in 2005
mainly attributable to expenses for certain revenue enhancement
projects in 2005. Other expense
for the three month period ended March 31, 2005 increased $0.1 million from the same period in
2005, mainly due to Company growth.

Income tax expense totaled $616 thousand for the three month period ended March 31, 2006, compared
to $492 thousand for the same period in 2005. The effective tax rate for the three month period
ended March 31, 2006 was 30.5%, compared to 28.1% for the same period in 2005. The increase is
primarily a result of the decreased composition of non-taxable municipal securities interest income
as a percentage of the overall investment portfolio and the larger contribution of non-tax
advantaged income from insurance operations.
CAPITAL
The Bank has consistently maintained regulatory capital ratios at, or above, federal well
capitalized standards. Equity as a percentage of assets was 7.9% at both March 31, 2006 and
December 31, 2005. Book value per common share was $13.41 at March 31, 2006, compared to $13.51 at
December 31, 2005. Total stockholders equity was $36.5 million at March 31, 2006, down from $36.9
million at December 31, 2005. The decline is primarily attributable to the payment of dividends,
and an increase in unrealized losses in the investment portfolio, which offset net income of $1.4
million in first quarter 2006.
LIQUIDITY
The Bank utilizes cash flows from the investment portfolio and federal funds sold balances to
manage the liquidity requirements related to loan demand and deposit fluctuations. The Bank also
has many borrowing options. As a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) the Bank is able to
borrow funds at competitive rates. Advances of up to $45.0 million can be drawn on the FHLB via an
Overnight Line of Credit Agreement between the Bank and the FHLB. An amount equal to 25% of the
Banks total assets could be borrowed through the advance programs under certain qualifying
circumstances. The Bank also has the ability to purchase up to $14.0 million in federal funds from
its correspondent banks. By placing sufficient collateral in safekeeping at the Federal Reserve
Bank, the Bank could also borrow at the discount window. Additionally, the Company has access to
capital markets as a funding source.
Cash flows from the Banks investment portfolio are laddered, so that securities mature at
regular intervals, to provide funds from principal and interest payments at various times as
liquidity needs may arise. Contractual maturities are also laddered, with consideration as to the
volatility of market prices, so that securities are available-for-sale from time-to-time without
the need to incur significant losses. At March 31, 2006, approximately 8.4% of the Banks
securities had contractual maturity dates of one year or less and approximately 32.6% had maturity
dates
of five years or less. Available assets of $153.6 million, less public and purchased funds of
$180.8 million, resulted in a long-term liquidity ratio of 85% at March 31, 2006, versus 90% at
December 31, 2005.
The Companys liquidity needs can also be met by more aggressively pursuing municipal
deposits, which are normally awarded on the basis of competitive bidding. The Company believes that
the Bank maintains a sufficient level of U.S. government and government agency securities and New
York State municipal bonds that can be pledged as collateral for these deposits.
ITEM 3 QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Additional information responsive to this Item is contained in the Liquidity section of
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, which
information is incorporated herein by reference.
Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and/or interest rates of
the Banks financial instruments. The primary market risk the Company is exposed to is interest
rate risk. The core banking activities of lending and deposit-taking expose the Bank to interest
rate risk, which occurs when assets and liabilities reprice at different times and by different
amounts as interest rates change. As a result, net interest income earned by the Bank is subject to
the effects of changing interest rates. The Bank measures interest rate risk by calculating the
variability of net interest income in the future periods under various interest rate scenarios
using projected balances for interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Managements
philosophy toward interest rate risk management is to limit the variability of net interest income
to changes in net interest rates. The balances of financial instruments used in the projections are
based on expected growth from forecasted business opportunities, anticipated prepayments of loans,
and investment securities and expected maturities of investment securities, loans and deposits.
Management supplements the modeling technique described above with analysis of market values of the
Banks financial instruments and changes to such market values given changes in the interest rates.
Table of Contents
The Banks Asset Liability Committee, which includes members of senior management, monitors
the Banks interest rate sensitivity with the aid of a computer model that considers the impact of
ongoing lending and deposit taking activities, as well as interrelationships in the magnitude and
timing of the repricing of financial instruments, including the effect of changing interest rates
on expected prepayments and maturities. When deemed prudent, management has taken actions, and
intends to do so in the future, to mitigate exposure to interest rate risk through the use of on-
or off-balance sheet financial instruments. Possible actions include, but are not limited to,
changing the pricing of loan and deposit products, and modifying the composition of
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, and other financial instruments used for
interest rate risk management purposes.
The following table demonstrates the possible impact of changes in interest rates on the
Banks net interest income over a 12 month period of time:

761 | 542 |
Many assumptions were utilized by management to calculate the impact that changes in the
interest rates may have on the Banks net interest income. The more significant assumptions related
to the rate of prepayments of
mortgage-related assets, loan and deposit volumes and pricing, and deposit maturities. The Bank
assumed immediate changes in rates including 200 basis point rate changes. In the event that the
200 basis point rate changes cannot be achieved, the applicable rate changes are limited to lesser
amounts such that interest rates cannot be less than zero. These assumptions are inherently
uncertain and, as a result, the Bank cannot precisely predict the impact of changes in interest
rates on net interest income. Actual results may differ significantly due to the timing, magnitude,
and frequency of interest rate changes in market conditions and interest rate differentials
(spreads) between maturity/repricing categories, as well as any actions such as those previously
described, which management may take to counter such changes. In light of the uncertainties and
assumptions associated with the process, the amounts presented in the table and changes in such
amounts are not considered significant to the Banks projected net interest income.
ITEM 4 CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
The Companys management, with the participation of the Companys principal executive officer
and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the
Companys disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the
Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, the Companys principal executive and principal financial
officers concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2006 (the
end of the period covered by this Report) have been designed and are functioning effectively to
provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in its
reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported
within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms.
