NOTE 3. EARNINGS PER SHAREEarnings per share is computed in accordance with the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, which requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) for entities with complex capital structures. Basic EPS is based on net earnings divided by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS includes the dilutive effect of stock options granted using the treasury stock method. The weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for basic and diluted earnings per share computations was as follows: |

NOTE 4. STOCK OPTIONSIn 2000, the Company granted nonqualified stock options to certain officers of the Company and the Bank under the Companys 1998 Stock Incentive Plan. The grants consisted of options to purchase 89,500 shares for a term of eight years at an exercise price of $9.30 per share, which was the market price of the Companys stock on the date the options were granted. In February 2002, the Company granted options to purchase 20,000 shares for a term of eight years at an exercise price of $12.50 per share, which was the market price of the Companys stock on the date the options were granted. In April of 2003, the Company granted options to purchase 38,000 shares at an exercise price of $15.23 per share, which was the market price of the Companys stock on the date the options were granted. The options fully vest and become exercisable in five equal installments commencing on the first anniversary of the date of grants and annually thereafter. At June 30, 2003, options for 2,000 shares have been exercised and 855,500 options remain available for future grants under the 1998 Stock Incentive Plan. In accordance with a new accounting standard, SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation Transition and Disclosure, an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 123, the Company transitioned to the fair value method of accounting for stock-based compensation during 2002 using the modified prospective method prescribed by the standard. Under the modified prospective method, the Company began recognizing stock-based employee compensation expense from the beginning of 2002 as if the fair value method had been used to account for all employee awards granted, modified, or settled in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1994. The fair value of options granted is determined using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. Stock-based employee compensation expense totaled approximately $13,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, and approximately $26,000 and $23,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Under the modified prospective method, no stock-based employee compensation expense is recognized for periods prior to adoption. The weighted-average fair value per share of options granted during 2003 was $4.19. The fair value of options granted was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions: Dividend yield of 1.97%; expected volatility of 26.0%; risk-free interest rate of 3.2%, and an expected life of 8.00 years. 9 |
NOTE 5. COMMITMENT AND CONTINGENCIESIn the normal course of business, the Company enters into various transactions, which, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, are not included in the consolidated balance sheets. These transactions are referred to as off-balance sheet commitments. The Company enters into these transactions to meet the financing needs of its customers. These transactions include commitments to extend credit and letters of credit, which involve elements of credit risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company minimizes its exposure to loss under these commitments by subjecting them to credit approval and monitoring procedures. The Company enters into contractual commitments to extend credit, normally with fixed expiration dates or termination clauses, at specified rates and for specific purposes. Customers use credit commitments to ensure that funds will be available for working capital purposes, for capital expenditures and to ensure access to funds at specified terms and conditions. Substantially all of the Companys commitments to extend credit are contingent upon customers maintaining specific credit standards at the time of loan funding. Management assesses the credit risk associated with certain commitments to extend credit in determining the level of the allowance for loan losses. Letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The Companys policies generally require that letters of credit arrangements contain security and debt covenants similar to those contained in loan agreements. In the event the customer does not perform in accordance with the terms of the agreement with the third party, the Company would be required to fund the commitment. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make is represented by the contractual amount shown in the table below. If the commitment is funded, the Company would be entitled to seek recovery from the customer. As of June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, no amounts have been recorded as liabilities for the Banks potential obligations under these guarantees. Outstanding commitments and letters of credit are as follows (dollars in thousands): |

Letters of credit | 1,217 | 1,140 |
The Company is subject to various claims and legal actions occurring in the normal course of business. The Company accrues for estimated losses in the accompanying financial statements for those matters where management believes the likelihood of an adverse outcome is probable and the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable. After consultation with legal counsel, management currently believes the outcome of outstanding legal proceedings, claims and litigation involving the Company will not have a material adverse effect on the Companys business, financial condition or results of operations. 10 |
In November 1998, Guaranty Leasing was informed by the Internal Revenue Service (the Service) that it has taken the position that certain losses taken by one of the three Partnerships during 1994, 1995 and 1996 of $302,000, $410,000 and $447,000, respectively, would be disallowed. In October 2001, Guaranty Leasing was informed by the Service that it has taken the position that certain losses taken by the Partnership during 1997 of $487,000 would also be disallowed. In September 2002, the Company received from the Service a Notice of Final Partnership Administrative Adjustment (FPAA) disallowing these deductions. Based upon the advice of counsel, the Company believes that it has correctly reported these transactions for tax purposes and that it has obtained appropriate legal, accounting and appraisal opinions and authority to support its positions. However, as of December 31, 2002, the Company had recorded and expensed the tax affect of the disallowed deductions. In February 2003, the Company filed a petition to begin the process to litigate the matter in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas. Any final determination with respect to the Partnership will be binding on the Company. Should the Service pursue an investigation of and ultimately disallow the related tax deductions taken during the remaining years of the above partnership as well as the other two partnerships, the Company would be required to recognize an additional maximum tax liability of approximately $3.9 million plus possible penalty and interest. The Company is actively contesting the position of the Service in connection with this matter, and will take appropriate steps necessary to protect its legal position. During 2002, the Company sold its ownership in one of the partnerships and dissolved the other two, therefore no additional deductions have been taken in 2003. ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONSCertain statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q include forward-looking information within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and are subject to the Safe Harbor created by those sections. When used in this document, the words believes, plans, expects, anticipates, intends, continue, may, will, should or the negative of such terms and similar expressions as they relate to the Company, its customers or its management, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements may involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties and other factors beyond the Companys control that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following factors: competitive pressure in the banking industry significantly increasing; changes in the interest rate environment reducing margins; general economic conditions, either nationally or regionally, are less favorable than expected, resulting in, among other things, a deterioration in credit quality and an increase in the provision for loan losses; changes in the regulatory environment; changes in business conditions; volatility of rate sensitive deposits; operational risks including data processing system failures or fraud; asset/liability matching risks and liquidity risks; and changes in the securities markets and the factors contained in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. GENERAL OVERVIEWGuaranty Bancshares, Inc. (the Company) is a registered bank holding company that derives substantially all of its revenues and income from the operation of its subsidiary, Guaranty Bond Bank (the Bank). The Bank is a full service bank that provides a broad line of financial products and services to small and medium-sized businesses and consumers through ten banking locations in the Texas communities of Mount Pleasant (two offices), Bogata, Commerce, Deport, Paris, Pittsburg, Sulphur Springs, Talco and Texarkana. The Company also maintains an office in Fort Stockton, Texas that limits its product offering to loans and time deposits. 11 |
FINANCIAL OVERVIEWNet earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2003 were $1.8 million, or $0.62 per share, compared with $2.1 million, or $0.69 per share, for the six months ended June 30, 2002, a decrease of $255,000, or 12.3%. The decrease in net earnings is due primarily to an increase in noninterest expense of $1.0 million, or 14.2%, partially offset by an increase in noninterest income of $177,000, or 7.1% and a lower provision for loan losses of $175,000 for the two comparable periods. Net earnings for the three months ended June 30, 2003 were $785,000, or $0.27 per share, compared with $1.1 million, or $0.36 per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2002, a decrease of $308,000, or 28.2%. The decrease is primarily due to an increase in noninterest expenses primarily due to additional employee compensation and benefits cost and a decrease in noninterest income partially offset by a decrease in the provision for loan losses. Gross loans decreased to $362.0 million at June 30, 2003, from $365.6 million at December 31, 2002, a decrease of $3.6 million, or 1.0%. Total assets increased to $530.4 million at June 30, 2003, compared with $518.0 million at December 31, 2002. The increase of $12.4 million in total assets is primarily in interest bearing deposits in other banks which increased $6.8 million and in securities available-for-sale which increased $8.6 million partially offset by a decrease in loans held for sale of $4.0 million. The net increase in total liabilities resulted primarily from an investment in deposits of $4.3 million, and a net increase in Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) advances of $8.1 million. Total deposits increased to $429.3 million at June 30, 2003 compared to $425.0 million at December 31, 2002, an increase of $4.3 million, or 1.0%. This increase comes primarily from an increase in noninterest-bearing deposits of $5.2 million, or 7.6% and an increase in savings, Now and money-market accounts of $7.7 million, or 6.7% partially offset by a decrease in certificate of deposits of $8.6 million, or 3.6%. Total shareholders equity was $35.5 million at June 30, 2003, compared with $34.6 million at December 31, 2002, an increase of $866,000, or 2.5%. This increase was due to earnings for the period of $1.8 million, partially offset by the purchase of 10,000 shares of treasury stock at a cost of $161,000, the payment of dividends of $497,000 and a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income of $296,000. RESULTS OF OPERATIONSInterest IncomeInterest income for the six months ended June 30, 2003 was $14.0 million, a decrease of $231,000, or 1.6%, compared with the six months ended June 30, 2002. Despite the increase in average interest-earning assets, interest income decreased due to lower interest rates earned on earning assets as a result of the current low interest rate environment. The average interest rate earned on interest-earning assets decreased from 6.66% during the six months ended June 30, 2002 to 5.91% during the six months ended June 30, 2003. Average loans were $361.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, compared with $334.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002, an increase of $27.1 million, or 8.1%. Average securities were $111.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, compared with $84.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002, an increase of $26.6 million, or 31.3%. Growth in the average volume of interest-earning assets was primarily funded by the growth in deposits for the period and an increase in FHLB advances. Interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2003 was $7.0 million, a decrease of $193,000, or 2.7%, compared with the three months ended June 30, 2002. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in the average yield on interest-earning assets from 6.54% during the three months ended June 30, 2002 to 5.80% during the three months ended June 30, 2003. 12 |
Interest ExpenseInterest expense on deposits and other interest-bearing liabilities was $5.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, compared with $6.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002, a decrease of $639,000, or 10.2%. The decrease in interest expense is due primarily to a lower average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities, which decreased from 3.35% for the six months ended June 30, 2002, to 2.69% for the six months ended June 30, 2003. The effect of this decrease was partially offset by growth in the average volume of interest-bearing liabilities. Average interest bearing deposits were $361.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, compared to $331.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002, an increase of $29.7 million, or 9.0%. Average FHLB advances and federal funds purchased were $49.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to $36.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002, an increase of $12.8 million, or 35.1%. Average long-term debt increased from $7.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 to $10.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 due to the issuance of $3.0 million in trust preferred securities by the Company in October 2002. Interest expense was $2.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003, compared with $3.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002, a decrease of $328,000, or 10.6%. The decrease for the comparable three-month periods was also due to decreases in average interest rates of interest-bearing liabilities partially offset by increases in average balances. Net Interest IncomeNet interest income was $8.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared with $8.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002, an increase of $408,000, or 5.1%. The increase in net interest income resulted primarily from growth in average interest-earning assets to $479.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, from $432.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002, an increase of $47.2 million, or 10.9%, partially offset by growth in average interest-bearing liabilities to $420.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, from $375.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002, an increase of $45.5 million, or 12.1%. Net interest income was $4.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003, compared with $4.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002, an increase of $135,000, or 3.3%. The net interest margin decreased from 3.72% to 3.51% for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and from 3.75% to 3.55% for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the same three and six month periods ended June 30, 2002. These decreases can be attributed to the fact that the percentage growth in average interest-bearing liabilities exceeded the percentage growth in average interest-earning assets thereby causing the ratio of average interest-earning assets to average interest-bearing liabilities to decrease. Additionally, the average rate paid on interest-earning assets decreased at a faster rate than the average rate earned on interest-bearing liabilities due to the Banks positive gap position in a falling interest rate environment. The Companys net interest income is affected by changes in the amount and mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, referred to as a volume change. It is also affected by changes in yields earned on interest-earning assets and rates paid on interest-bearing deposits and other borrowed funds, referred to as a rate change. The following tables set forth, for each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, the average amounts outstanding, the interest earned or paid on such amounts, and the annualized average rate earned or paid for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The tables also set forth the average rate earned on total interest-earning assets, the average rate paid on total interest-bearing liabilities, the net interest spread and the net interest margin for the same periods. The net interest spread is the difference between the average rate earned on total interest-earning assets less the average rate paid on total interest-bearing liabilities. The net interest margin is net interest income as a percentage of average interest-earning assets. No tax equivalent adjustments were made and all average balances are derived from average daily balances. Nonaccruing loans have been included in the tables as loans carrying a zero yield. 13 |

Provision for Loan LossesProvisions for loan losses are charged to expense to bring the total allowance for loan losses to a level deemed appropriate by management of the Company based on such factors as the industry diversification of the Companys commercial loan portfolio, the effect of changes in the local real estate market on collateral values, the results of recent regulatory examinations, the effects on the loan portfolio of current economic indicators and their probable impact on borrowers, the amount of charge-offs for the period and the amount of nonperforming loans and related collateral security. The provision for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 2003, was $525,000 compared with $700,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2002, a decrease of $175,000, or 25.0%. The provision for loan losses for the three months ended June 30, 2003 was $150,000 compared to $450,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2002 a decrease of $300,000, or 66.7%. The decrease for the periods was partially due to the decrease in the ratio of net charge-offs to average loans from 0.14% for the six months ended June 30, 2002 to 0.11% for the six month ended June 30, 2003. Management believes the allowance for loan losses is adequate based on the Companys loan asset quality, its low historical charge-off experience and its increased ratio of allowance for loan losses to end of period nonperforming loans. 17 |

As indicated above, the Companys primary sources of recurring noninterest income are service charges on deposit accounts, fee income and other noninterest income. Noninterest income for the six months ended June 30, 2003 increased $177,000, or 7.1% over the same period in 2002. The increase was primarily due to increases in check cashing fee income and debit card fee income and an increase in other noninterest income due to the increased volume of sales of mortgage loans into the secondary market. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in realized gain on sale of securities of $146,000, or 46.1% for the same comparable period. Noninterest income for the three month period ended June 30, 2003 decreased $175,000, or 11.9% primarily due to a smaller gain on sale of securities compared with the gain during the same period in 2002.

Employee compensation and benefits expense increased $238,000, or 11.3%, and $470,000, or 11.2%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 compared with the same periods in 2002. The increase for both the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2003 was due primarily to normal salary increases and additional staff placement in the Mt. Pleasant, Texarkana, and Sulphur Springs locations to handle customer growth. The number of full-time equivalent employees was 225 at June 30, 2003, compared with 215 at June 30, 2002, an increase of 4.7%. Non-staff expenses increased $305,000, or 20.8%, and $535,000, or 18.8%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2002. Net bank premises expense increased $22,000, or 4.5% and $48,000, or 5.0%, respectively, in 2003 over the comparable periods in 2002 due to higher building maintenance expense and increased property tax expense. Legal and professional expense also increased during the same periods by $94,000, or 112.0% and $104,000, or 38.0% respectively, in 2003 primarily due to the cost incurred to contest the position the Internal Revenue Service took regarding Guaranty Leasing Partnership deductions. Other non-staff expenses increased $223,000, or 33.1% and $399,000, or 33.5%, for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2003, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2002. These increases were primarily the result of an increase in software support fees, ATM and debit card expenses, a permanent impairment charge to the Aircraft Finance Trust lease in the amount of $113,000 taken in the second quarter of 2003, and the upgrading of telephone communication lines. Income TaxesIncome tax expense increased $10,000 to $715,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from $705,000 for the same period in 2002. Income tax expense was $478,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2003 compared with $453,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2002, an increase of $25,000. The increase for the three and six month periods is primarily attributable to the decrease of tax deductions available from the Companys leveraged leasing activities. The income stated on the consolidated statement of earnings differs from the taxable income due to tax-exempt income, the amount of non-deductible interest expense and the amount of other non-deductible expense. FINANCIAL CONDITIONLoan Portfolio (including loans held for sale)Gross loans were $362.0 million at June 30, 2003, a decrease of $3.6 million, or 1.0%, from $365.6 million at December 31, 2002. The decrease occurred primarily in 1 4 family residential loans and in loans held for sale due to an increased volume of loans refinanced and placed into the secondary market. Average loans comprised 75.4% of total average interest-earning assets at June 30, 2003 compared with 77.3% at June 30, 2002. 19 |

Allowance for Loan LossesIn originating loans, the Company recognizes that it will experience credit losses and the risk of loss will vary with, among other things, general economic conditions, the type of loan being made, the creditworthiness of the borrower over the term of the loan and, in the case of a collateralized loan, the quality of the collateral for such loan. The Company maintains an allowance for loan losses in an amount that it believes is adequate for estimated losses in its loan portfolio. Management determines the adequacy of the allowance through its evaluation of the loan portfolio. In addition to unallocated allowances, specific allowances are provided for individual loans when ultimate collection is considered questionable by management after reviewing the current status of loans which are contractually past due and considering the net realizable value of the collateral for the loan. Loans are charged-off against the allowance for loan losses when appropriate. Although management believes it uses the best information available to make determinations with respect to the allowance for loan losses, future adjustments may be necessary if economic conditions differ from the assumptions used in making the initial determinations. Loan charge-offs, net of recoveries, during the six month period ended June 30, 2003 decreased $83,000 or 17.7% over the same period ended June 30, 2002. At June 30, 2003, the allowance for loan losses totaled $3.8 million or 1.06% of gross loans and $3.6 million or 1.03% of gross loans, respectively. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of nonperforming loans was 116.77% and 77.69% at June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. 20 |

NONPERFORMING ASSETSNonperforming assets were $4.8 million at June 30, 2003 compared with $4.3 million at December 31, 2002. Nonaccrual loans decreased $317,000 from $2.8 million at December 31, 2002 to $2.5 million at June 30, 2003. This decrease is due primarily to several smaller loans being removed from non-accrual status. Accruing loans 90 or more days past due increased $383,000, from $404,000 at December 31, 2002 to $787,000 at June 30, 2003. This increase is due primarily to general economic conditions being less favorable than expected. Other real estate increased $441,000 during the same period. This increase is primarily the result of loans that were foreclosed on during the period totaling $763,000, net of sales of properties with a carrying value of $325,000. Management anticipates to incur minimal losses with respect to these nonperforming assets. The ratio of nonperforming assets to total loans and other real estate was 1.33% and 1.18% at June 30, 2003, and December 31, 2002, respectively. 21 |

SECURITIESSecurities totaled $115.6 million at June 30, 2003, an increase of $8.6 million from $107.0 million at December 31, 2002. At June 30, 2003, securities represented 21.8% of total assets compared with 20.7% of total assets at December 31, 2002. The average yield on securities for the six months ended June 30, 2003 was 3.77% compared with 5.44% for the same period in 2002. At June 30, 2003, securities included $8.2 million in U.S. Government securities, $94.7 million in mortgage-backed securities, $8.1 million in collateralized mortgage obligations, $3.3 million in equity securities, and $1.3 million in municipal securities. The average life of the securities portfolio at June 30, 2003, was approximately 3.38 years, however, all of the Companys securities are classified as available-for-sale. OTHER ASSETSOther assets totaled $9.7 million at June 30, 2003 compared to $9.3 million at December 31, 2002, an increase of $404,000, or 4.4%. This increase resulted primarily from the recording of additional cash value on key-man life insurance that the Company owns. DEPOSITSAt June 30, 2003, demand, money market and savings deposits account for approximately 45.8% of total deposits, while certificates of deposit made up 54.2% of total deposits. Total deposits increased $4.3 million, or 1.0% from December 31, 2002 to June 30, 2003. This increase comes primarily from an increase in noninterest bearing deposits of $5.2 million, or 7.6%, and an increase in savings and money market deposits of $4.4 million, or 5.8% both due to increases in the number of deposit accounts from new customer relationships. Noninterest-bearing demand deposits totaled $73.7 million, or 17.2% of total deposits, at June 30, 2003, compared with $68.5 million, or 16.1% of total deposits, at December 31, 2002. The average cost of deposits, including noninterest-bearing demand deposits, was 1.93% for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared with 2.61% for the same period in 2002. LIQUIDITYThe Companys asset/liability management policy is intended to maintain adequate liquidity for the Company. Liquidity involves the Companys ability to raise funds to support asset growth or reduce assets to meet deposit withdrawals and other payment obligations, to maintain reserve requirements and otherwise to operate the Company on a continuing basis. The Companys liquidity needs are primarily met by growth in core deposits. Although access to purchased funds from correspondent banks and the FHLB is available and has been utilized on occasion to take advantage of investment opportunities, the Company does not continually rely on these external-funding sources. The cash and federal funds sold position, supplemented by amortizing investments along with payments and maturities within the loan portfolio, has historically created an adequate liquidity position. 22 |
The Companys cash flows are composed of three classifications: cash flows from operating activities, cash flows from investing activities, and cash flows from financing activities. As summarized in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, the most significant transactions which affected the Companys level of cash and cash equivalents, cash flows, and liquidity during the first six months of 2003 were securities purchases of $75.2 million, securities sales of $32.6 million, securities call, maturities, and principal repayments of $32.8 million, and the net increase in short-term FHLB advances of $7.5 million. CAPITAL RESOURCESBoth the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Federal Reserve), with respect to the Company, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), with respect to the Bank, have established certain minimum risk-based capital standards that apply to bank holding companies and federally insured banks, respectively. As of June 30, 2003, the Companys Tier 1 risk-based capital, total risk-based capital and leverage capital ratios were 11.63%, 12.69%, and 8.01%, respectively. As of June 30, 2003, the Banks risk-based capital ratios remain above the levels required for the Bank to be designated as well capitalized by the FDIC with Tier 1 risk-based capital, total risk-based capital and leverage capital ratios of 11.04%, 12.09%, and 7.64%, respectively. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTSIn January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issue Interpretation No. 46 (FIN 46), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, which establishes criteria to identify and assess a companys interest in variable interest entities and for consolidating those entities. FIN 46 is currently effective for variable interest entities created or obtained after January 2003, and will be effective for all variable interest entities for interim periods beginning after June 15, 2003. The adoption of FIN 46 is not expected to require the consolidation by the Company of any additional entities. In May 2003, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 150 (SFAS No. 150), Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity, which establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). This Statement is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. It is to be implemented by reporting the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle for financial instruments created before the issuance date of the Statement and still existing at the beginning of the interim period of adoption. Adoption of SFAS No. 150 on July 1, 2003 did not have a material effect on the Companys consolidated financial statements. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.There have been no material changes in the market risk information disclosed in the Companys Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002. See Form 10-K, Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk. ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. 23 |
As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act)). Based on this evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms. (b) Changes in internal controls There were no significant changes in the Companys internal controls or, to the knowledge of the Companys chief executive officer and chief financial officer, in other factors that could significantly affect the Companys disclosure controls and procedures subsequent to the date of the Companys most recent evaluation. PART II OTHER INFORMATIONITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGSThe Company is subject to various claims and legal actions occurring in the normal course of business.
