NorthWest Indiana Bancorp
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1 Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of NorthWest Indiana Bancorp (the
Bancorp), its wholly-owned subsidiary, Peoples Bank SB (the Bank), and the Banks wholly-owned
subsidiaries, Peoples Service Corporation, NWIN, LLC and NWIN Funding, Inc. The Bancorp has no
other business activity other than being a holding company for the Bank. The Bancorps earnings
are dependent upon the earnings of the Bank. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial
statements were prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not
include all disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete
presentation of financial statements. In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial
statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary to
present fairly the consolidated balance sheets of the Bancorp as of June 30, 2007 and 2006, and the
consolidated statements of income and changes in stockholders equity for the three and six months
ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006. The
income reported for the six-month period ended June 30, 2007 is not necessarily indicative of the
results to be expected for the full year.
Note 2 Use of Estimates
Preparing financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets, liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the
reporting period, as well as the disclosures provided. Actual results could differ from those
estimates. Estimates associated with the allowance for loan losses, fair values of financial
instruments and status of contingencies are particularly susceptible to material change in the near
term.
Note 3 Concentrations of Credit Risk
The primary lending area of the Bancorp encompasses all of Lake County in northwest Indiana,
where a majority of loan activity is concentrated. The Bancorp is also an active lender in Porter,
and to a lesser extent, LaPorte, Newton and Jasper counties in Indiana. Substantially all loans
are secured by specific items of collateral including residences, business assets and consumer
assets.
Note 4 Earnings Per Share
Earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding. A reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and
diluted earnings per common share computation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and
June 30, 2006 is presented below:

Note 5 Stock Based Compensation
Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R (FAS 123R), Share-Based Payment, requires companies
to record compensation cost for stock options provided to employees in return for employment
service. The cost is measured at the fair value of the options when granted, and this cost is
expensed over the employment service period, which is normally the vesting period of the options.
Compensation cost will also be recorded for prior option grants that vest after the date of
adoption. For the three months ended June 30, 2007, stock based compensation expense of $22,000
was recorded, compared to $17,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2006. For the six months ended
June 30, 2007, stock based compensation expense of $40,000 was recorded, compared to $33,000 for
the six months ended June 30, 2006. It is anticipated that current outstanding vested and
unvested options will result in additional compensation expense of approximately $35,000 in 2007
and $46,000 in 2008.
A summary of option activity under the Bancorps stock option plan for the six months ended
June 30, 2007 is presented below:

During the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, no stock options were granted from the
Bancorps stock option plan. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the six months
ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, was $68,233 and $70,239.
Note 6 Adoption of New Accounting Standards
The Bancorp adopted FASB Interpretation 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (FIN
48), as of January 1, 2007. A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is more likely
than not that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination
being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is
greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the more
likely than not test, no tax benefit is recorded. The adoption had no affect on the Bancorps
financial statements. The Bancorp and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal income tax as
well as income tax of the state of Indiana, Nevada and Maryland. The Bancorp is no longer subject
to examination by taxing authorities for years before 2003. The Bancorp does not expect the total
amount of unrecognized tax benefits to significantly increase in the next twelve months. The
Bancorp recognizes interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense.
The Bancorp did not have any amounts accrued for interest and penalties at June 30, 2007.
The Bancorp adopted FASB Statement No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets-an
amendment of FASB Statement No. 140, as of January 1, 2007. This Statement provides the following:
1) revised guidance on when a servicing asset and servicing liability should be recognized; 2)
requires all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities to be initially
measured at fair value, if practicable; 3) permits an entity to elect to measure servicing assets
and servicing liabilities at fair value each reporting date and report changes in fair value in
earnings in the period in which the changes occur; 4) upon initial adoption, permits a one-time
reclassification of available-for-sale securities to trading securities for securities which are
identified as offsetting the entitys exposure to changes in the fair value of servicing assets or
liabilities that a servicer elects to subsequently measure at fair value; and 5) requires separate
presentation of servicing assets and servicing liabilities subsequently measured at fair value in
the statement of financial position and additional footnote disclosures. Currently, the Bancorp
holds servicing assets consisting of mortgage servicing rights and no servicing liabilities.
Mortgage servicing rights are initially measured at fair value. Subsequent to acquisition,
mortgage servicing rights are measured using the amortization method, which amortizes the servicing
rights in proportion to and over the period of estimated net servicing income or net servicing
loss. Mortgage servicing rights are assessed for impairment or increased obligation based on fair
value at each reporting date. The Bancorp does not participate in financial hedging activities for
its servicing of financial assets.

Loans receivable totaled $457.0 million at June 30, 2007, compared to $471.7 million at
December 31, 2006. At June 30, 2007, loans receivable represented 80.4% of interest-earning
assets, 75.3% of total assets and 91.1% of total deposits. The loan portfolio, which is the
Bancorps largest asset, is a significant source of both interest and fee income. The Bancorps
lending strategy stresses quality loan growth, product diversification, and competitive and
profitable pricing. The loan portfolio includes $51.3 million (11.2%) in construction and
development loans, $233.6 million (51.2%) in residential mortgage loans, $13.6 million (3.0%) in
multifamily loans, $111.7 million (24.4%) in commercial real estate loans, $2.8 million (0.6%) in
consumer loans, $39.3 million (8.6%) in commercial business and $4.7 million (1.0%) in government
and other loans. Adjustable rate loans comprised 57.3% of total loans at June 30, 2007. During
the six months ended June 30, 2007, loans decreased by $14.7 million (3.1%). During the period,
growth occurred in construction & development, while commercial real estate, multifamily, consumer,
commercial business and government loan balances decreased. During the six-month period, loan
balances decreased as a result of expected commercial real estate loan, government, and commercial
business loan pay-off activity.
The Bancorp is primarily a portfolio lender. Mortgage banking activities are generally
limited to the sale of fixed rate mortgage loans with contractual maturities greater than 15 years.
These loans are identified as held for sale when originated and sold, on a case-by-case basis, in
the secondary market as part of the Bancorps efforts to manage interest rate risk. During the six
months ended June 30, 2007, the Bancorp sold $6.6 million in fixed rate mortgages originated for
sale compared to $3.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2006. Net gains realized from
sales for the six months ended June 30, 2007, totaled $118 thousand compared to $57 thousand for
the six months ended June 30, 2006. At June 30, 2007, the Bancorp had $609 thousand in loans that
were classified as held for sale.
The primary objective of the Bancorps investment portfolio is to provide for the liquidity
needs of the Bancorp and to contribute to profitability by providing a stable flow of dependable
earnings. Funds are generally invested in federal funds, interest bearing balances in financial
institutions, U.S. government securities, federal agency obligations and obligations of state and
local municipalities. The securities portfolio totaled $105.3 million at June 30, 2007, compared
to $99.0 million at December 31, 2006, an increase of $6.3 million (6.4%). At June 30, 2007, the
securities portfolio represented 18.5% of interest-earning assets and 17.3% of total assets. The
securities portfolio was comprised of 34.0% in U.S. government agency debt securities, 43.5% in
U.S. government agency mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations, and
22.5% in municipal securities. At June 30, 2007, securities available-for-sale (AFS) totaled
$88.7 million or 84.2% of total securities. AFS securities are those the Bancorp may decide to
sell if needed for liquidity, asset-liability management or other reasons. In addition, at June
30, 2007, the Bancorp had $3.5 million in Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) stock. At June 30, 2007,
$2.3 million was maintained in interest bearing balances in financial institutions.

The allowance for loan losses (ALL) is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit
losses, increased by the provision for loan losses, and decreased by charge-offs less recoveries.
A loan is charged-off against the allowance by management as a loss when deemed uncollectible,
although collection efforts continue and future recoveries may occur.
The determination of the amounts of the ALL and provisions for loan losses is based on
managements current judgments about the credit quality of the loan portfolio with consideration
given to all known relevant internal and external factors that affect loan collectibility as of the
reporting date. The appropriateness of the current year provision and the overall adequacy of the
ALL are determined through a disciplined and consistently applied quarterly process that combines a
review of the current position with a risk assessment worksheet.
The Risk Assessment Worksheet covers the residential, commercial real estate, commercial
business, and consumer loan portfolios. Management uses a risk rating system to assist in
determining the appropriate level for the ALL. Management assigns risk factors to non-performing
loans; loans that management has internally classified as impaired; loans that management has
internally classified as substandard, doubtful, loss, or watch; and, performing loans.
Risk factors for non-performing and internally classified loans are based on an analysis of
the estimated collateral liquidation value for individual loans defined as substandard or doubtful.
Estimated collateral liquidation values are based on established loan underwriting standards and
adjusted for current mitigating factors on a loan-by-loan basis. Aggregate substandard loan
collateral deficiencies are determined for residential, commercial real estate, commercial
business, and consumer loan portfolios. These deficiencies are then stated as a percentage of the
total substandard balances to determine the appropriate risk factors.
Risk factors for performing and non-classified loans are based on the average net charge-offs
for the most recent five years, which are then stated as a percentage of average loans for the same
period. Historical risk factors are calculated for residential, commercial real estate, commercial
business, and consumer loans. The historical factors are then adjusted for current subjective
risks attributable to: local and national economic factors; loan growth and changes in loan
composition; organizational structure; composition of loan staff; loan concentrations; policy
changes and out of market lending activity.
Non-performing loans include those loans that are 90 days or more past due and those loans
that have been placed on non-accrual status. Non-performing loans totaled $3.7 million at June 30,
2007, compared to $3.1 million at December 31, 2006, an increase of $591 thousand or 19.2%. The
increase in non-performing loans at June 30, 2007 is related to one past due commercial real estate
loan in the amount of $749 thousand. Subsequent to June 30, 2007, interest payments for this loan
have been received and the loan is now current. The ratio of non-performing loans to total loans
was 0.80% at June 30, 2007, compared to 0.65% at December 31, 2006. The ratio of non-performing
loans to total assets was 0.60% at June 30, 2007, compared to 0.50% at December 31, 2006. The June
30, 2007 non-performing loan balances include $2.1 million in loans accounted for on a non-accrual
basis and $1.6 million in accruing loans which were contractually past due 90 days or more. Loans,
internally classified as substandard totaled $5.6 million at June 30, 2007, compared to $6.9
million at December 31, 2006. No loans were classified as doubtful or loss. Substandard loans
include non-performing loans and potential problem loans, where information about possible credit
issues or other conditions causes management to question the ability of such borrowers to comply
with loan covenants or repayment terms. In addition to identifying and monitoring non-performing
and other classified loans, management maintains a list of watch loans. Watch loans represent
loans management is closely monitoring due to one or more factors that may cause the loan to become
classified. Watch loans totaled $9.7 million at June 30, 2007, compared to $7.6 million at
December 31, 2006. The increase in watch loans at June 30, 2007 is related to commercial business
and real estate loans with potential cash flow issues.
At June 30, 2007, impaired loans totaled $955 thousand, compared to $1.9 million at December
31, 2006. The decrease for the period is a result of receiving a loan pay-off from a commercial
real estate borrower. The June 30, 2007, impaired loan balances were also classified as
non-performing loans at the end of both periods. The June 30, 2007, impaired loan balances consist
of three loans for two commercial borrowers that are secured by business assets and real estate,
and are personally guaranteed by the owner of the business. Impaired loans are loans where full
payment under the loan terms is not expected. There were no other loans considered to be impaired
loans as of, or for the quarter ended, June 30, 2007.
At June 30, 2007, management is of the opinion that there are no loans, except those discussed
above, where known information about possible credit problems of borrowers causes management to
have serious doubts as to the ability of such borrowers to comply with the present loan repayment
terms and which may result in disclosure of such loans as non-accrual, past due or restructured
loans. Also, at June 30, 2007, no other interest bearing assets were required to be disclosed as
non-accrual, past due, restructured or potential problems if such assets were loans. Management
does not presently anticipate that any of the non-performing loans or classified loans would
materially impact future operations, liquidity or capital resources.

The Bancorp has a $1.1 million participation in a $6.4 million letter of credit, which acts as
payment support to bondholders. The Bancorps management currently believes that the principal of
the borrower has the financial capacity to meet future bond repayment obligations. Cash flows from
the security collateralizing the letter of credit have been
negatively impacted due to the closing of a major tenant. Management will continue to monitor
the letter of credit and bond repayments.
For the six months ended June 30, 2007, $5 thousand in additions to the ALL account were
required, compared to $15 for the quarter ended June 30, 2006. The June 30, 2007 ALL contained
$436 in specific allowances for the collateral deficiency associated with two loans totaling $955
thousand, which had been classified as impaired at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006.
Charge-offs, net of recoveries, totaled $1 thousand for the current six months, compared to
recoveries, net of recoveries of $28 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2006. The ALL
provisions take into consideration managements current judgments about the credit quality of the
loan portfolio, loan portfolio balances, changes in the portfolio mix and local economic
conditions. In determining the provision for loan loss for the current period, management has
given consideration to increased risks associated within the local economy, changes in loan
balances and mix, and asset quality.
The ALL to total loans was 0.93% at June 30, 2007, compared to 0.90% at December 31, 2006,
while the ALL to non-performing loans (coverage ratio) was 116.4% at June 30, 2007, compared to
138.6% at December 31, 2006. A consistently strong coverage ratio is an indicator that sufficient
provisions for loan losses have been established. The June 30, 2007 balance in the ALL account of
$4.3 million is considered adequate by management after evaluation of the loan portfolio, past
experience and current economic and market conditions. While management may periodically allocate
portions of the allowance for specific problem loans, the whole allowance is available for any loan
charge-offs that occur. The allocation of the ALL reflects performance and growth trends within
the various loan categories, as well as consideration of the facts and circumstances that affect
the repayment of individual loans, and loans which have been pooled as of the evaluation date, with
particular attention given to non-performing loans and loans which have been classified as
substandard, doubtful or loss. Management has allocated general reserves to both performing and
non-performing loans based on current information available.
At June 30, 2007, the Bancorp had two properties in foreclosed real estate totaling $130
thousand, compared to 4 properties totaling $323 thousand at December 31, 2006.
Deposits are a fundamental and cost-effective source of funds for lending and other investment
purposes. The Bancorp offers a variety of products designed to attract and retain customers, with
the primary focus on building and expanding relationships. At June 30, 2007, deposits totaled
$501.7 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2007, deposits decreased by $11.2 million
(2.2%). Checking account balances increased by $3.0 million (2.8%). Savings account balances
decreased by $360 thousand (0.7%) during the current period. Money market deposit accounts
(MMDAs) decreased by $22.3 million (16.2%), as a result of planned withdrawals by a local
governmental units. Certificates of deposit increased by $8.4 million (3.9%), as additional
certificates of deposit balances were acquired to replace MMDAs withdrawals. At June 30, 2007,
the deposit base was comprised of 22.1% checking accounts, 22.9% MMDAs, 10.7% savings accounts and
44.3% certificates of deposit.
Borrowings are primarily used to fund asset growth not supported by deposit generation. At
June 30, 2007, borrowed funds totaled $51.1 million compared to $51.5 million at December 31, 2006,
a decrease of $357 thousand (0.7%). Retail repurchase agreements totaled $14.0 million at June 30,
2007, compared to $14.7 million at December 31, 2006, a decrease of $762 thousand (5.2%). Federal
Home Loan Bank (FHLB) fixed, variable and line of credit advances totaled $35.9 million at June 30,
2007, compared to $35.1 million at December 31, 2006, an increase of $792 thousand (2.6%). During
the three months ended June 30, 2007, advance balances decreased by $15.4 million as a result of
increased liquidity from loan pay-off activity. In addition, other short-term borrowings totaled
$1.3 million at June 30, 2007, compared to $1.7 million at December 31, 2006, a decrease of $346
thousand (2.0%).
Liquidity and Capital Resources
For the Bancorp, liquidity management refers to the ability to generate sufficient cash
to fund current loan demand, meet deposit withdrawals, and pay dividends and operating
expenses. Because profitability and liquidity are often conflicting objectives, management
attempts to maximize the Bancorps net interest margin by making adequate, but not excessive,
liquidity provisions.
Changes in the liquidity position result from operating, investing and financing
activities. Cash flows from operating activities are generally the cash effects of
transactions and other events that enter into the determination of net income. The primary
investing activities include loan originations, loan repayments, investments in interest
bearing balances in financial institutions, and the purchase, sale, and maturity of
9
Table of Contents
investment securities. Financing activities focus almost entirely on the generation of
customer deposits. In addition, the Bancorp utilizes borrowings (i.e., retail repurchase
agreements and advances from the FHLB) as a source of funds.
During the six months ended June 30, 2007, cash and cash equivalents decreased by $3.3 million
compared to a $24.2 million decrease for the six months ended June 30, 2006. The primary sources
of cash were proceeds from pay downs of securities, loan sales, loan repayments and proceeds from
FHLB advances and other borrowed funds. The primary uses of cash were the purchase of securities,
funding of withdrawals for short-term local government funds, repayment of FHLB advances, purchase
of loan participations and the payment of common stock dividends. Cash provided for operating
activities totaled $2.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to $3.2 million
for the period ended June 30, 2006. Cash inflows from investing activities totaled $7.2 million
for the current period, compared to cash outflows of $20.0 million for the six months ended June
30, 2006. The change for the current period was primarily due to expected commercial real estate,
government and commercial business loan pay-offs. Net cash outflows from financing activities
totaled $13.4 million during the current period compared to net cash outflows of $7.3 million for
the six months ended June 30, 2006. The change in net cash outflows from financing activities was
primarily due to an increase in net proceeds from FHLB advance balances during the six months ended
June 30, 2007. The Bancorp paid dividends on common stock of $2.0 million during the current
six-month period compared to $1.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006.
At June 30, 2007, outstanding commitments to fund loans totaled $107.6 million.
Approximately 89% of the commitments were at variable rates. Management believes that the
Bancorp has sufficient cash flow and borrowing capacity to fund all outstanding commitments
and to maintain proper levels of liquidity.
Management strongly believes that maintaining a high level of capital enhances safety and
soundness. During the six months ended June 30, 2007, stockholders equity increased by $536
thousand (1.1%). The increase was primarily a result of the Bancorps $2.9 million in net income
for the current three month period. The Bancorp declared $2.0 million in cash dividends for the
six-month period ended June 30, 2007. The net unrealized loss on available-for-sale securities,
net of tax was $542 thousand for the current six months. During the current six-month period, the
Bancorp received $141 thousand from the issuance of Bancorp common stock from stock-based
compensation plans.
The Bancorp is subject to risk-based capital guidelines adopted by the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the FRB), and the Bank is subject to risk-based
capital guidelines adopted by the FDIC. As applied to the Bancorp and the Bank, the FRB and
FDIC capital requirements are substantially identical. The Bancorp and the Bank are required
to maintain a total risk-based capital ratio of 8%, of which 4% must be Tier 1 capital. In
addition, the FRB and FDIC regulations provide for a minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio (Tier 1
capital to adjusted average assets) of 3% for financial institutions that meet certain
specified criteria, including that they have the highest regulatory rating and are not
experiencing or anticipating significant growth. All other financial institutions are
required to maintain a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 3% plus an additional cushion of at least one
to two percent.
The table on the following page shows that, at June 30, 2007, and December 31, 2006, the
Bancorps capital exceeded all regulatory capital requirements. The Bancorps and the Banks
regulatory capital ratios were substantially the same at both dates. The dollar amounts are
in millions.

The Bancorps ability to pay dividends to its shareholders is entirely dependent upon
the Banks ability to pay dividends to the Bancorp. Under Indiana law, the Bank may pay
dividends from its undivided profits (generally, earnings less losses, bad debts, taxes and
other operating expenses) as is considered expedient by the Banks Board of Directors.
However, the Bank must obtain the approval of the Indiana Department of Financial
Institutions for the payment of a dividend if the total of all dividends declared by the
Bank during the current year, including the proposed dividend, would exceed the sum of
retained net income for the year to date plus its retained net income for the previous two
years. For this purpose, retained net income, means net income as calculated for call
report purposes, less all dividends declared for the applicable period. Moreover, the FDIC
and the Federal Reserve Board may prohibit the payment of dividends if it determines that
the payment of dividends would constitute an unsafe or unsound practice in light of the
financial condition of the Bank. The aggregate amount of dividends, which may be declared
by the Bank in 2007, without prior regulatory approval, approximates $4,907,000 plus current
2007 net profits.
Results of Operations Comparison of the Quarter Ended June 30, 2007 to the Quarter Ended
June 30, 2006
Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 was $1.4 million, compared to $1.7
million for the quarter ended June 30, 2006, a decrease of $232 thousand (14.0%). The
earnings represent a ROA of 0.93% for the quarter ended June 30, 2007, compared to 1.07% for
the quarter ended June 30, 2006. The ROE was 11.00% for the quarter ended June 30, 2007,
compared to 13.89% for the quarter ended June 30, 2006.
Net interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2007 was $4.4 million, a
decrease of $470 thousand (9.6%), compared to $4.9 million for the quarter ended June 30,
2006. The decrease in net interest income has been negatively impacted by short-term
interest rates and slow loan and checking account growth. The weighted-average yield on
interest-earning assets was 6.23% for the three months ended June 30, 2007, compared to 5.98%
for the three months ended June 30, 2006. The weighted-average cost of funds for the quarter
ended June 30, 2007, was 3.19% compared to 2.64% for the quarter ended June 30, 2006. The
impact of the 6.23% return on interest-earning assets and the 3.19% cost of funds resulted in
an interest rate spread of 3.04% for the current quarter compared to 3.34% for the quarter
ended June 30, 2006. During the current quarter, total interest income increased by $223
thousand (2.6%) while total interest expense increased by $693 thousand (18.6%). The net
interest margin was 3.12% for the three months ended June 30, 2007, compared to 3.40% for the
quarter ended June 30, 2006. On a tax equivalent basis, the Bancorps net interest margin
was 3.21% for the three months ended June 30, 2007, compared to 3.50% for the quarter ended
June 30, 2006. Comparing the net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis more accurately
compares the returns on tax-exempt loans and securities to those on taxable interest-earning
assets.
During the three months ended June 30, 2007, interest income from loans increased by $89
thousand (1.2%), compared to the three months ended June 30, 2006. The increase was
primarily due to an increase in the weighted-average yield earned on loan balances. The
weighted-average yield on loans outstanding was 6.23% for the current quarter, compared to
6.38% for the three months ended June 30, 2006. Loan balances averaged $461.5 million for
the current quarter, a decrease of $14.1 million (3.0%) from $475.6 million for the three
months ended June 30, 2006. The decrease in average daily loan balances was affected by
several large commercial real estate and commercial business loan pay-offs. During the three
months ended June 30, 2007, interest income on securities and other interest bearing balances
increased by $134 thousand (12.9%), compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2006. The
increase was due to higher securities balances and an increase in the weighted-average
portfolio yield. The weighted-average yield on securities and other interest bearing
balances was 4.41%, for the current quarter, compared to 4.11% for the three months ended
June 30, 2006. Securities balances averaged $100.3 million for the current quarter, up $4.3
million (4.5%) from $96.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006. Other interest
bearing balances averaged $2.4 million for the current quarter, down $487 thousand (25.1%)
from $1.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006.
Interest expense on deposits increased by $668 thousand (21.5%) during the current
quarter compared to the three months ended June 30, 2006. The change was due to an increase
in the weighted-average rate paid on deposits. The weighted-average rate paid on deposits
for the three months ended June 30, 2007 was 3.05%, compared to 2.49% for the quarter ended
June 30, 2006. Total deposit balances averaged $494.1 million for the current quarter, down
$3.9 million (0.8%) from $498.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2006. Interest
expense on borrowed funds increased by $25 thousand (4.0%) during the current quarter due to
an increase in the weighted-average rate paid. The weighted-average cost of borrowed funds
was 4.27% for the current quarter compared to 3.69% for the three months ended June 30, 2006.
Borrowed funds averaged $61.1 million during

$39 thousand (3.7%) from $1.05 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2006. During the
current quarter, fees and service charges totaled $745 thousand, an increase of $5 thousand
(0.7%) from $740 thousand for the quarter ended June 30, 2006. Fees from Wealth Management
operations totaled $169 thousand for the quarter ended June 30, 2007, a decrease of $5

of securities totaled $19 thousand for the current quarter. No security gains were realized
during the quarter ended June 30, 2006. Gains from loan sales totaled $64 thousand for the
current quarter, an increase of $30 thousand (88.2%), compared to $34 thousand for the
quarter ended June 30, 2006. Income from increases in the cash value of bank owned life
insurance totaled $97 thousand for the quarters ended June 30, 2007 and 2006. For the
quarter ended June 30, 2007, a $6 thousand loss from the sale of foreclosed was realized, no
gains or losses were realized during the quarter ended June 30, 2006.
Noninterest expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 was $3.60 million, an increase of $39
thousand (1.1%) from $3.56 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006. During the current
quarter, compensation and benefits totaled $1.81 million, a decrease of $39 thousand (2.1%) from
$1.84 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2006. The decrease was primarily due to a reduction
in benefit accruals. Occupancy and equipment totaled $657 thousand for the current quarter, an
increase of $48 thousand (7.9%) compared to $609 thousand for the quarter ended June 30, 2006. The
increase was a result of additional depreciation expense for capital expenditures. Data processing
expense totaled $224 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2007, an increase of $17 thousand
(8.2%) from $207 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2006. The change was a result of
increased utilization of the Bancorps core data processing system. Marketing expense related to
banking products totaled $60 thousand for the current quarter, a decrease of $12 thousand (16.7%)
from $72 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2006. Marketing expenses for the current
quarter were deferred to subsequent quarters, as the Bank continues to focus on reengineering its
marketing function. Other expenses related to banking operations totaled $852 thousand for the
quarter ended June 30, 2007, an increase of $25 thousand (3.0%) from $827 thousand for the quarter
ended June 30, 2006. The increase is result of increased expenses associated with foreclosed real
estate. The Bancorps efficiency ratio was 65.2% for the quarter ended June 30, 2007, compared to
59.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2006. The ratio is determined by dividing total
noninterest expense by the sum of net interest income and total noninterest income for the period.
Income tax expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2007 totaled $494 thousand, compared
to $722 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2006, a decrease of $228 thousand (31.6%).
The combined effective federal and state tax rates for the Bancorp was 25.8% for the three months
ended June 30, 2007, compared to 30.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2006. The decrease was

Results of Operations Comparison of the Six Months Ended June 30, 2007 to the Six Months
Ended June 30, 2006
Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2007 was $2.9 million, compared to $3.3
million for the six months ended June 30, 2006, a decrease of $422 thousand (12.7%). The
earnings represent a ROA of 0.95% for the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to 1.08%
for the six months ended June 30, 2006. The ROE was 11.36% for the six months ended June
30, 2007, compared to 14.06% for the six months ended June 30, 2006.
Net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2007 was $8.8 million, a decrease
of $1.1 million (11.1%), compared to $9.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006.
The decrease in net interest income has been negatively impacted by short-term interest rates
and slow loan and checking account growth. The weighted-average yield on interest-earning
assets was 6.21% for the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to 5.89% for the six months
ended June 30, 2006. The weighted-average cost of funds for the six months ended June 30,
2007, was 3.18% compared to 2.48% for the six months ended June 30, 2006. The impact of the
6.21% return on interest-earning assets and the 3.18% cost of funds resulted in an interest
rate spread of 3.03% for the current six months compared to 3.40% for the six months ended
June 30, 2006. During the current six months, total interest income increased by $784
thousand (4.6%) while total interest expense increased by $1.9 million (26.9%). The net
interest margin was 3.10% for the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to 3.46% for the
six months ended June 30, 2006. On a tax equivalent basis, the Bancorps net interest margin
was 3.19% for the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to 3.56% for the six months ended
June 30, 2006.
During the six months ended June 30, 2007, interest income from loans increased by $597
thousand (4.0%), compared to the six months ended June 30, 2006. The increase was primarily
due to an increase in the weighted-average yield earned on loan balances. The
weighted-average yield on loans outstanding was 6.62% for the
12

current six months, compared to
6.30% for the six months ended June 30, 2006. Loan balances averaged $465.6 million for the
current six months, a decrease of $4.8 million (1.0%) from $470.4 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2006. The decrease in average daily loan balances was affected by several
large commercial real
estate and commercial business loan pay-offs. During the six months ended June 30,
2007, interest income on securities and other interest bearing balances increased by $187
thousand (8.8%), compared to the six months ended June 30, 2006. The increase was due to
higher securities balances and an increase in the weighted-average portfolio yield. The
weighted-average yield on securities and other interest bearing balances was 4.38%, for the
current six months, compared to 4.04% for the six months ended June 30, 2006. Securities
balances averaged $99.4 million for the current six months, up $5.2 million (5.5%) from $94.2
million for the six months ended June 30, 2006. Other interest bearing balances averaged
$2.1 million for the current six months, down $5.2 million (70.9%) from $7.3 million for the
six months ended June 30, 2006.
Interest expense on deposits increased by $1.6 million (26.3%) during the current six
months compared to the six months ended June 30, 2006. The change was due to an increase in
the weighted-average rate paid on deposits. The weighted-average rate paid on deposits for
the six months ended June 30, 2007 was 3.03%, compared to 2.35% for the six months ended June
30, 2006. Total deposit balances averaged $491.5 million for the current six months, down
$11.2 million (2.2%) from $502.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006. Interest
expense on borrowed funds increased by $333 thousand (30.4%) during the current six months
due to an increase in the weighted-average rate paid and an increase in average daily
balances. The weighted-average cost of borrowed funds was 4.24% for the current six months
compared to 3.62% for the six months ended June 30, 2006. Borrowed funds averaged $67.3
million during the six months ended June 30, 2007, an increase of $6.9 million (11.4%) from
$60.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006.
Noninterest income for the six months ended June 30, 2007 was $2.13 million, an increase
of $42 thousand (2.0%) from $2.09 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006. During the
current six months, fees and service charges totaled $1.43 million, a decrease of $32
thousand (2.2%) from $1.46 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006. Fees from Wealth
Management operations totaled $338 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2007, an
increase of $2 thousand (0.6%) from $336 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2006.
Gains from the sale of securities totaled $48 thousand for the current six months. No
security gains were realized during the six months ended June 30, 2006. Gains from loan
sales totaled $118 thousand for the current six months, an increase of $61 thousand (107.0%),
compared to $57 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2006. Income from increases in
the cash value of bank owned life insurance totaled $195 thousand for the six months ended
June 30, 2007, compared to $172 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2006, an increase
of $23 thousand (13.4%). For the six months ended June 30, 2007, a $6 thousand loss from the
sale of foreclosed real estate was realized, while net gains of $42 thousand were realized
during the six months ended June 30, 2006.
Noninterest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2007 was $7.11 million, a decrease of
$73 thousand (1.0%) from $7.18 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006. During the current
six months, compensation and benefits totaled $3.66 million, a decrease of $70 thousand (1.9%) from
$3.73 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006. The decrease was primarily due to a
reduction in benefit accruals. Occupancy and equipment totaled $1.3 million for the current six
months, an increase of $49 thousand (4.0%) compared to $1.2 million for the six months ended June
30, 2006. The increase was a result of additional depreciation expense for capital expenditures.
Data processing expense totaled $445 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2007, an increase
of $36 thousand (8.8%) from $409 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2006. The change was a
result of increased utilization of the Bancorps core data processing system. Marketing expense
related to banking products totaled $119 thousand for the current six months, a decrease of $50
thousand (29.6%) from $169 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2006. Marketing expenses for
the current period were deferred to the second half of 2007, as the Bank continues to focus on
reengineering its marketing function. Other expenses related to banking operations totaled $1.6
million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, a decrease of $38 thousand (2.3%) from $1.7 million
for the six months ended June 30, 2006. The Bancorps efficiency ratio was 64.8% for the six
months ended June 30, 2007, compared to 59.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2006.
Income tax expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2007 totaled $948 thousand, compared to
$1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006, a decrease of $552 thousand (36.8%). The
combined effective federal and state tax rates for the Bancorp was 24.6% for the six months ended
June 30, 2007, compared to 31.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2006. The decrease was
attributable to an increased investment in municipal securities, bank owned life insurance and the
Banks Real Estate Investment Trust.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The Bancorps primary market risk exposure is interest rate risk. Interest rate risk is the
risk that the Bancorps earnings and capital will be adversely affected by changes in interest
rates. The primary approach to interest rate risk management is one that focuses on adjustments to
the Bancorps asset/liability mix in order to limit the magnitude of interest rate risk. The Board
of Directors has delegated the responsibility for measuring, monitoring and controlling interest
rate risk to the Bancorps asset/liability, capital and technology management committee (ALCTM).
The ALCTM is responsible for developing and implementing interest rate risk management strategies,
establishing and maintaining a system of limits and controls, and establishing and utilizing an
interest rate risk measurement system. The ALCTM, which is made up of members of senior
management, generally meets monthly with board presentations occurring quarterly.
Performance from an interest rate risk perspective can be measured in many ways.
Methodologies used by the Bancorp focus on net interest income and the net economic value of
equity. Net interest income is defined as interest income less interest expense. Variability in
net interest income arises because its components interest income and interest expense do not
change equally as rates vary. This mismatch occurs because individual assets and liabilities
reprice differently as rates change. Factors which affect net interest income include changes in
the level of interest rates, changes in the relationship between Bancorp yield rates and interest
costs, changes in the volume of assets and liabilities outstanding, and changes in the composition
or mix of assets and liabilities. Management uses rate shock (i.e., instantaneous and sustained
parallel shifts in the yield curve in 1% increments up and down 2%) for stress testing the net
interest income under several rate change levels. In order to simulate activity, maturing balances
are replaced with new balances at the new rate level and repricing balances are adjusted to the new
rate shock level. The results are compared to limits set by the Board of Directors and are
monitored to identify unfavorable trends. Net economic value of equity is the net present value of
the Bancorps portfolio of assets and liabilities. By marking-to-market the components of the
balance sheet, management can compute the net economic value of equity. As rates change over time,
the market values of Bancorp assets and liabilities will change, with longer-term products
fluctuating more than short-term products. In most cases, rate-sensitive assets and liabilities
will not have the same maturity characteristics. Therefore, as rates vary, the market value of the
rate-sensitive assets will not change equally with the market value of rate-sensitive liabilities.
This will cause the net economic value of equity to vary. The focus of the net economic value of
equity is to determine the percentage decline in the net economic value of equity caused by a 2%
increase or decrease in interest rates, whichever produces the larger decline. A large value
indicates a large percentage decline in the net economic value of equity due to changes in interest
rates and, thus, high interest rate sensitivity. A low value indicates a small percentage decline
in the net economic value of equity due to changes in interest rates and, thus, low interest rate
sensitivity. As with net interest income, the results are compared to limits set by the Board of
Directors and are monitored to identify unfavorable trends.
Presented in the following tables is forward-looking information about the Bancorps
sensitivity to changes in interest rates as of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006. The tables
incorporate the Bancorps internal system generated data as related to the maturity and
repayment/withdrawal of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Prepayment
assumptions are based on published data. Present value calculations use current published market
interest rates. For core deposits that have no contractual maturity, the table presents principal
cash flows and, as applicable, related weighted-average interest rates based on the Bancorps
historical experience, managements judgment, and statistical analysis, as applicable, concerning
their most likely withdrawal behaviors, but not as to when they could be repriced.

The tables show that the Bancorp has managed interest rate risk within the policy limits set
by the Board of Directors. At June 30, 2007, an increase in interest rates of 2% would have
resulted in an 8.3% decrease in net interest income and a 12.5% decrease in the net economic value
of equity compared to decreases of 8.9% and 14.1% at December 31, 2006. During the six months
ended June 30, 2007, the Bancorp has managed interest rate risk by generally selling fixed rate
loans with contractual maturities exceeding 15 years, maintaining the short duration of the
securities portfolio, and implementing deposit funding and pricing strategies.
