NORTHRIM BANCORP, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
June 30, 2003 and 2002

1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared by Northrim BanCorp, Inc. (the “Company”) in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and with instructions to Form 10-Q under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the interim period ended June 30, 2003, are not necessarily indicative of the results anticipated for the year ending December 31, 2003. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002.

2.   STOCK REPURCHASE

In September of 2002, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a plan whereby the Company would periodically repurchase for cash up to approximately 5%, or 306,372, of its shares of stock in the open market. The Company purchased 211,000 shares of its stock under this program through June 30, 2003, at a total cost of $2.8 million, with 10,000 of those shares repurchased in the second quarter of 2003 at a cost of $150,000. The Company intends to continue to repurchase its stock from time to time depending upon market conditions.

3.   ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In April 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement No. 149, Amendment of Statement No. 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. Statement No. 149 amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts and for hedging activities under FASB Statement No. 133. The Standard has multiple effective date provisions depending on the nature of the amendment to Statement No. 133. The Company believes the adoption of Statement No. 149 will have no impact on its financial statements.

In May 2003, the FASB issued Statement No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity. Statement No. 150 establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. The 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 30, 2003, except for mandatorily redeemable financial instruments of nonpublic entities. The Company believes the adoption of Statement No. 150 will have no impact on its financial statements.

At June 30, 2003, December 31, 2002, and June 30, 2002, the Company had impaired loans of $13 million, $3.1 million, and $4.1 million, respectively. A specific allowance of $1.3 million, $271,000, and $322,800 was established for these periods.

5.   DEPOSIT ACTIVITIES

The Alaska Permanent Fund may invest in certificates of deposit at Alaska banks in an aggregate amount with respect to each bank, not to exceed its capital and at specified rates and terms. The depository bank must collateralize the deposit. At June 30, 2003, the Company held $40.1 million in certificates of deposit for the Alaska Permanent Fund, collateralized by available-for-sale securities and a letter of credit issued by the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”).

6.   EARNINGS PER SHARE

The Company applies APB Opinion No. 25 in accounting for its plan and, accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for its stock options in the financial statements. Had the Company determined compensation cost based on the fair value at the grant date for its stock options under SFAS No. 123, the Company’s net income would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below for the second quarter and six-month period ending June 30, 2003 and 2002:

OVERVIEW

Northrim BanCorp, Inc. is a publicly traded bank holding company (Nasdaq: NRIM) with three wholly-owned subsidiaries, Northrim Bank (the “Bank”), a state chartered, full-service commercial bank, Northrim Investment Services Company (“NISC”), which we formed in November 2002 to hold the Company’s 43% equity interest in Elliott Cove Capital Management LLC (“Elliott Cove”), an investment advisory services company, and Northrim Capital Trust (“NCT”), an entity that we formed in May of this year to facilitate a trust preferred securities offering by the Company. We also hold a 50% equity interest and a 30% interest in the profits and losses of a residential mortgage company, Residential Mortgage LLC (“RML”), through the Bank’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Northrim Capital Investment Corporation (“NCIC”). RML was formed in 1998 and has offices throughout Alaska. We are headquartered in Anchorage and have 10 branch locations, seven in Anchorage, and one each in Fairbanks, Eagle River and Wasilla. We offer a wide array of commercial bank loan and deposit products, including electronic banking services over the Internet.

We opened the Bank for business in Anchorage in 1990. The Bank became the wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company effective December 31, 2001, when we completed our bank holding company reorganization. We opened our first branch, in Fairbanks, in 1996, and our second location in Anchorage in 1997. During the second quarter of 1999, we purchased eight branches located in Anchorage, Eagle River and Wasilla from Bank of America. This acquisition resulted in us acquiring $114 million in loans, $124 million in deposits and $2 million in fixed assets for a purchase price of $5.9 million.

One of our major objectives is to increase our market share in Anchorage and Fairbanks, Alaska’s two largest urban areas. We estimate that we hold a 21% share of the commercial bank deposit market in Anchorage and an 8% share of the Fairbanks market as of June 30, 2002.

In January 2002, we moved from a supermarket branch into a full-service branch to provide a higher level of service to the growing Eagle River market. In December 2002, we completed construction of our Wasilla Financial Center and moved from our existing supermarket branch and loan production office. We moved from our supermarket branch in west Anchorage into a freestanding facility in February 2003. In addition, we are exploring other branching options and are currently analyzing additional market opportunities in the Fairbanks area.

The Company’s total assets and deposits at June 30, 2003, were $714.9 million and $627.9 million, respectively, increases of 2% and less than 1%, respectively, from December 31, 2002, due to the seasonal nature of the deposit accounts that affected total deposit balances as well as short-term investment and cash balances. Total assets and deposits each increased 14%, from June 30, 2002. Net loans were $581.4 million at June 30, 2003, an increase of 10% from December 31, 2002, and 17% from June 30, 2002.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

NET INCOME

Net income for the second quarter ended June 30, 2003, was $2.6 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, an increase in net income of 33%, and a 39% increase in diluted earnings per share as compared to $2 million and $0.31 in the same period of 2002. The earnings increase for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003, reflects moderate growth in assets, loans, and deposits along with substantial growth in earnings from the Company’s interest in RML as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2002. The growth in earnings per share was affected by all of these factors as well as the Company’s stock repurchase program under which it has repurchased 211,000 of its shares between September 2002 and June 30, 2003.

Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2003, was $5.2 million, an increase of $1.2 million, or 30% from the six months ended June 30, 2002. Diluted earnings per share were $0.84, compared to $0.63 in the same period in 2002. The earnings increase for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003, reflects moderate growth in assets, loans, and deposits as well as a large growth in earnings from RML as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2002. The growth in earnings per share was affected by all of these factors as well as the Company’s stock repurchase program under which it has repurchased 211,000 of its shares between September 2002 and June 30, 2003.

NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income for the second quarter of 2003 increased $1.5 million, or 19%, to $9.7 million from $8.2 million in 2002. The following table compares average balances and rates for the second quarter and six-month period ending June 30, for 2003 and 2002:

Interest-earning assets averaged $636.8 million for the second quarter of 2003, an increase of $61.4 million, or 11%, over the $575.4 million average for the comparable period in 2002. The tax equivalent yield on earning assets averaged 7.21% in 2003, a decrease of 38 basis points from 7.59% for the same period in 2002.

Loans, the largest category of interest-earning assets, increased by $61.9 million, or 13%, to an average of $552.3 million in the second quarter of 2003 from $490.4 million in the same period of 2002. Commercial loans, real estate term loans, construction loans and real estate loans held for resale increased by $22.2 million, $22.2 million, $16.8 million, and $10.1 million, respectively, on average between the second quarters. Consumer loans declined $9.3 million on average during the same period. The tax equivalent yield

-13-


Table of Contents

on the loan portfolio averaged 7.76% for the second quarter of 2003, a decrease of 32 basis points from 8.08% a year ago due, in part, to a drop in the prime-lending rate of 50 basis points from June 30, 2002, to June 30, 2003. The Company had $155.2 million in loans indexed to the prime-lending rate on June 30, 2003, or 26%, of total loans, as compared to $152.1 million, or 30%, on June 30, 2002. The long decline in interest rates has also led to an increase in refinance activity in the Company’s commercial real estate portfolio, which is typically comprised of longer-term loans. Continuing refinance activity as a result of lower rates may put further downward pressure on the Company’s interest margin in the future. However, the Company’s net loan fees amortized in the second quarter ended June 30, 2003, totaled $1.3 million, an increase of 71% from fees of $772,000 in the second quarter ended June 30, 2002, as a result of larger loan volumes, an increase in refinance activity, and the collection of $122,000 in prepayment penalties for loans paid off prior to their maturity.

Interest-bearing liabilities averaged $462.7 million for the second quarter of 2003, an increase of $37.6 million, or 9%, compared to $425.2 million for the same period in 2002. The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 1.0% to 1.51% for the second quarter of 2003 compared to 2.51% for the second quarter of 2002. The decrease in the average cost of funds was largely due to the repricing of deposit accounts in response to the Federal Reserve’s rate reductions over the last year. The weighted average life of the Company’s certificate of deposits is less than one year. The cost of these deposits should further decline if market interest rates remain at reduced levels, as deposits originated at higher interest rates during earlier periods mature, and are repriced to the current rates. However, as interest rates approach historically low levels, the Company may not be able to fully reprice these liabilities to maintain its net interest margin. Moreover, interest rates could increase in the future in response to an improvement in the general economy of the United States. An increase in general interest rates could cause an increase in the cost of the Company’s deposit accounts which could also have a negative impact on its net interest margin.

The Company’s net interest income as a percentage of average interest-earning assets (net tax-equivalent margin) was 6.11% for the second quarter of 2003, an increase of 38 basis points from 5.73% for the same period in 2002. The average net tax equivalent yield on interest-earning assets decreased by 38 basis points to 7.21% in the second quarter of 2003, from 7.59% in the same period of 2002. The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased by 100 basis points in the second quarter of 2003 to 1.51% from 2.51% in the same quarter of 2002. Interest rates on the Company’s interest-bearing liabilities declined more than the rate on its interest-earning assets, which caused its net interest margin to increase over the last year. An additional factor in the improvement in the net interest margin was an increase in demand deposits. In the second quarter of 2003, demand deposits funded 23.7% of the Company’s interest-earning assets versus 22.4% of earning assets in the second quarter of 2002. Finally, as noted above, net loan fees increased to $1.3 million in the second quarter ended June 30, 2003 as compared to fees of $772,000 in the second quarter ended June 30, 2002.

Net interest income for the first six months of 2003 increased by $3 million, or 19% from $16.2 million in 2002. The increase was due in large part to a $57.5 million increase in average interest-bearing assets between the periods, funded in part by a $31.9 million increase in average interest-bearing liabilities. The net tax equivalent margin for the first six months of 2003 increased by 43 basis points to 6.19% from 5.76% for the same period in 2002. The average net tax equivalent yield on interest-earning assets decreased by 33 basis points to 7.33% for the first six months in 2003 from 7.66% in the same six-month period one year ago. The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 98 basis points to 1.56% for the first six months of 2003, from 2.54% for the same six-month period in 2002.

Total other operating income for the second quarter of 2003 was $1.8 million, an increase of $563,000 from the second quarter of 2002.

Deposit service charges increased $53,000, or 12%, from $425,000 in the second quarter of 2002.

Loan servicing fees increased $52,000 in the second quarter of 2003 compared to the same quarter of the prior year mainly because of an increase in the volume of loans purchased from RML.

The Company’s share of the earnings from RML increased by $499,000 to $886,000 during the second quarter of 2003 as compared to $387,000 in the second quarter of 2002, primarily due to increased refinance activity. The large decrease in interest rates and a strong residential housing market fueled increases in mortgage originations from refinances and home purchase loans in the second quarter of 2003.

The Company’s share of the loss from Elliott Cove was $116,000 for the second quarter of 2003 and $325,000 for the six month period ended June 30, 2003. These losses reflect the start-up costs for Elliott Cove which began active operations in the fourth quarter of 2002. The Company expects these losses to continue for several years while Elliott Cove builds its assets under management. In July of this year, the Company made a commitment to loan $625,000 to Elliott Cove. The Company expects to advance the funds in installments beginning in September 2003 and ending in February 2004. At the Company’s option, the loan is repayable in July of 2006 or convertible so that the Company’s total equity interest in Elliott Cove would increase to 58% as compared to the 43% interest that it currently owns in Elliott Cove. The Company will earn 5% interest on the loan.

EXPENSES

Provision for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses for the second quarter of 2003 was $936,000, compared to $515,000 for the same period one year ago. We increased the provision in 2003 because of loan growth, loss inherent in the portfolio, and an increase in non-performing loans. The allowance for loan losses was $9.4 million, or 1.70% of total portfolio loans outstanding (which excludes $39.7 million of real estate loans for sale), at June 30, 2003, compared to $7.5 million, or 1.50%, of total portfolio loans, at June 30, 2002.

Charge-offs

There were $380,000 in net loan charge-offs during the second quarter of 2003, compared to $507,000 of net charge-offs for the same period in 2002. For the first six months of 2003 net loan charge-offs were $457,000, or 0. 17% of average loans, compared to net loan charge-offs of $530,000 for the same period in 2002.

Total other operating expense for the second quarter of 2003 was $6.2 million, an increase of $515,000 from the same period in 2002.

The major reasons for the changes within this category of expenses were as follows: First, salaries and benefits increased by $318,000, or 10%, due to increases in full time equivalent workers and wage increases over the prior period. Second, professional and outside services decreased by $48,000, or 14%, because the Company moved its check processing system back in-house in May 2002, which resulted in a savings on outside services of $74,000 that were partially offset by increases in other areas. Third, software amortization on check sorting equipment and maintenance expense increased due to larger and more complex systems. Finally, other expenses increased by $154,000, or 19%, due in part to $60,000 in tax expenses that the Company has accrued to account for a dispute with the Internal Revenue Service over its 1998 and 1999 tax returns. The other portion of the $154,000 increase in other expenses resulted in part from a $47,000 increase in operational charge-offs.

Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes increased $488,000, or 41%, to $1.7 million in the second quarter of 2003 compared to $1.2 million in the same period in 2002. The effective tax rates for the second quarter of 2003 and 2002 were 39% and 38%, respectively. The increase in effective rate was due to a decline of approximately $1.7 million on average of tax-exempt assets between periods. The provision for income taxes increased $962,000, or 42%, to $3.3 million in the first six months of 2003 compared to $2.3 million in the same period in 2002. The effective tax rates for the first six months of 2003 and 2002 were 39% and 37%, respectively.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

ASSETS

Loans and Lending Activities

General: Our loan products include short- and medium-term commercial loans, commercial credit lines, construction and real estate loans, consumer loans, and credit cards. We emphasize providing financial services to small- and medium-sized businesses and to individuals. From our inception, we have emphasized commercial, land development and home construction, and commercial real estate lending. These types of lending have provided us with needed market opportunities and higher net interest margins than other types of lending. However, they also involve greater risks, including greater exposure to changes in local economic conditions, than certain other types of lending.

Loans are the highest yielding component of earning assets. Average loans were $61.9 million, or 13%, greater in the second quarter of 2003 than in the same period of 2002. Loans comprised 87% of total earning assets at June 30, 2003, compared to 85% of total earning assets at June 30, 2002. The yield on loans averaged 7.76% for the quarter ended June 30, 2003, compared to 8.08% during the same period in 2002.

Growth in the loan portfolio for the six-month period ending June 30, 2003, compared to the same period in 2002 was $86.3 million, or 17%. Commercial loans increased $24 million, or 14%, commercial real estate loans increased $15.1 million, or 7%, construction loans increased $18.1 million, or 27%, and real estate loans for sale loans increased $39.4 million, or 13,591% during the second quarter of 2003 as compared to the same period in 2002. Consumer loans decreased $11.5 million, or 22%, during the same period. Funding for the growth in loans during the second quarter of 2003 came from an increase in interest-bearing liabilities and from non-interest-bearing sources of funds and capital.

We began a program in 1998 of purchasing single-family mortgage loans originated from our affiliated mortgage company, RML. These loans, which are committed for sale to mortgage investors, have generally been held by the Company for less than 45 days. At June 30, 2003, these loans totaled $39.7 million compared to $290,000 on June 30, 2002.

Loan Portfolio Composition: Loans, excluding real estate loans for sale, increased to $551.1 million at June 30, 2003, from $527.6 million at December 31, 2002. At June 30, 2003, 53% of the portfolio was scheduled to mature over the next 12 months with 34% scheduled to mature between July 1, 2004, and June 30, 2008. Future growth in loans is generally dependent on new loan demand and deposit growth, and is constrained by the Company’s policy of being “well-capitalized.”

The following table sets forth the Company’s loan portfolio composition by loan type for the dates indicated:

Nonaccrual, Accruing Loans 90 Days or More Past Due and Restructured Loans: The Company’s financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting, including recognition of interest income on its loan portfolio, unless a loan is placed on a nonaccrual basis. For financial reporting purposes, amounts received on nonaccrual loans generally will be applied first to principal and then to interest only after all principal has been collected.

Restructured loans are those for which concessions, including the reduction of interest rates below a rate otherwise available to that borrower, have been granted due to the borrower’s weakened financial condition. Interest on restructured loans will be accrued at the restructured rates when it is anticipated that no loss of original principal will occur and the interest can be collected.

Total nonperforming loans at June 30, 2003, were $8.8 million, or 1.6% of total portfolio loans, an increase of $3.1 million from $5.7 million at December 31, 2002, and an increase of $3.4 million from $5.4 million at June 30, 2002. The increase in nonperforming loans in the second quarter of 2003 resulted in large part from the remaining portions of two relationships being categorized as non-performing. These two relationships comprise 52% of the non-performing loan totals, and it is anticipated that they will remain in a non-performing status for the near-term.

At June 30, 2003, December 31, 2002, and June 30, 2002, the Company had impaired loans of $13 million, $3.1 million, and $4.1 million, respectively. A specific allowance of $1.3 million, $271,000, and $322,800 was established for these periods.

Potential Problem Loans: At June 30, 2003, the Company had identified $2.8 million of potential problem loans, as compared to $2.9 million at December 31, 2002, and $550,000 one year ago. Potential problem loans are loans which are currently performing and are not included in nonaccrual, accruing loans 90 days or more past due, or restructured loans at the end of the applicable period, but about which there has developed serious doubts as to the borrower’s ability to comply with present repayment terms and, which may later be included in nonaccrual, past due, or restructured loans.

Analysis of Allowance for Loan Losses: The Allowance for Loan Losses was $9.4 million, or 1.70% of total portfolio loans outstanding (which excludes $39.7 million of real estate loans for sale), at June 30, 2003, compared to $7.5 million, or 1.50%, of total portfolio loans at June 30, 2002. The Allowance for Loan Losses represented 106% of non-performing loans at June 30, 2003, as compared to 140% of non-performing loans at June 30, 2002. Management believes that at June 30, 2003, the allowance for loan losses is adequate to cover losses that are reasonably likely in light of our current loan portfolio and existing and expected economic conditions. Management anticipates additional provisions to the Allowance for Loan Losses in future periods due to expected growth in the loan portfolio and a perceived continued softening of the overall state and local economies.

in securities, or 74%, of the investment portfolio were pledged, as compared to $40.7 million, or 32%, at December 31, 2002, and $37.7 million, or 50%, at June 30, 2002.

LIABILITIES

Deposits

General: Deposits are the Company’s primary source of new funds. Total deposits increased $1.5 million to $627.9 million at June 30, 2003, up less than 1% from $626.4 million at December 31, 2002, and up 14% from $553.2 million at June 30, 2002. The Company’s deposits generally are expected to fluctuate according to the level of the Company’s market share, economic conditions, and normal seasonal trends.

Certificates of Deposit: The only deposit category with stated maturity dates is certificates of deposit. At June 30, 2003, the Company had $168.1 million in certificates of deposit, of which $127.5 million, or 76%, are scheduled to mature over the next 12 months compared to $117.2 million, or 72%, at December 31, 2002, and to $136.8 million, or 80%, one year ago.

Alaska Permanent Fund: The Alaska Permanent Fund may invest in certificates of deposit at Alaska banks in an aggregate amount with respect to each bank, not to exceed its capital and at specified rates and terms. The depository bank must collateralize the deposit. At June 30, 2003, the Company held $40.1 million in certificates of deposit for the Alaska Permanent Fund, collateralized by available-for-sale securities and a letter of credit issued by the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”).

Borrowings

Federal Home Loan Bank: At June 30, 2003, the Company’s maximum borrowing line from the FHLB was approximately $75.1 million with $5 million committed to secure public deposits and $3.6 million in long-term advances, compared to $5 million to secure public deposits and $3.8 million in long-term advances at December 31, 2002. Additional advances are dependent on availability of acceptable collateral such as marketable securities or real estate loans, although all FHLB advances are secured by a blanket pledge of the Company’s assets.

Other Short-term Borrowing: At June 30, 2003, the Company had no short-term (original maturity of one year or less) borrowings that exceeded 30% of shareholders’ equity.

CAPITAL

Shareholders’ Equity

Shareholders’ equity was $70.1 million at June 30, 2003, compared to $68.4 million at December 31, 2002, an increase of 3%. The Company earned net income of $5.2 million during the six-month period ending June 30, 2003. However, the Company’s equity was decreased by dividends paid and declared that totaled $1.4 million and the stock repurchase plan outlined below.

Capital Requirements and Ratios

The Company is subject to minimum capital requirements. Federal banking agencies have adopted regulations establishing minimum requirements for the capital adequacy of banks and bank holding companies. The requirements address both risk-based capital and leverage capital. As of June 30, 2003, the Company and the Bank met all applicable capital adequacy requirements.

The FDIC has in place qualifications for banks to be classified as “well-capitalized.” As of June 13, 2003, the most recent notification from the FDIC categorized the Bank as “well-capitalized.” There were no conditions or events since the FDIC notification that have changed the Bank’s classification.

The following table illustrates the capital requirements for the Company and its actual capital ratios that exceed these requirements:

                                 
                    June 30, 2003   December 31, 2002

Stock Repurchase Plan

In September of last year, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a plan whereby the Company would periodically repurchase, for cash, up to approximately 5%, or 306,372, of its shares of stock in the open market. The Company purchased 211,000 shares of its stock under this program through June 30, 2003, at a total cost of $2.8 million, with 10,000 of those shares repurchased in the second quarter of 2003 at a cost of $150,000. The Company intends to continue to repurchase its stock from time to time depending upon market conditions.

Trust Preferred Issuance

On May 8, 2003, the Company’s newly formed subsidiary, Northrim Capital Trust I, issued trust preferred securities in the principal amount of $8 million. These securities carry an interest rate of LIBOR plus 3.15% that is initially set at 4.45% and adjusted quarterly. The securities have a maturity date of May 15, 2033 and are callable by the Company within the first five years. These securities are treated as Tier 1 capital by the Company’s regulators for capital adequacy calculations

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In April 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 149, Amendment of Statement No. 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. Statement No. 149 amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts and for hedging activities under Statement No. 133. The Standard has multiple effective date provisions depending on the nature of the amendment to Statement No. 133. The Company believes the adoption of Statement No. 149 will have no impact on its financial statements.

In May 2003, the FASB issued Statement No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity. Statement No. 150 establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity.

ITEM THREE

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest rate, credit, and operations risks are the most significant market risks, which affect the Company’s performance. The Company relies on loan review, prudent loan underwriting standards, and an adequate allowance for credit losses to mitigate credit risk.

The Company utilizes a simulation model to monitor and manage interest rate risk within parameters established by its internal policy. The model projects the impact of a 100 basis point increase and a 100 basis point decrease, from prevailing interest rates, on the balance sheet for a period of 12 months.

The Company is currently liability sensitive, meaning that interest-bearing liabilities mature or reprice more quickly than interest-earning assets in a given period. Therefore, a significant increase in market rates of interest could adversely impact net interest income. Conversely, a declining interest rate environment may improve net interest income. However, due to the historically low level of interest rates, the Company may be unable to pass additional declines through to its deposit customers which could have an adverse effect on its net interest income.

Generalized assumptions are made on how investment securities, classes of loans and various deposit products might respond to the interest rate changes. These assumptions are inherently uncertain, and as a result, the model cannot precisely estimate net interest income nor precisely predict the impact of higher or lower interest rates on net interest income. Actual results may differ materially from simulated results due to factors such as timing, magnitude, and frequency of rate changes, customer reaction to rate changes, changes in market conditions, the absolute level of interest rates, and management strategies, among other factors.

The results of the simulation model at June 30, 2003, indicate that, if interest rates increased an immediate 100 basis points, the Company would experience a decrease in net interest income of approximately $618,000 over the next 12 months. Similarly, the simulation model indicates that, if interest rates decreased an immediate 100 basis points, the Company would experience a decrease in net interest income of approximately $301,000 over the next 12 months.

ITEM FOUR

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Our principal executive and financial officers supervised and participated in this evaluation. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive and financial officers each concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information required to be included in the periodic reports to the Securities and Exchange Commission. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon various assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any of our plans, products, services or procedures will succeed in achieving their intended goals under future conditions. In addition, there have been no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors known to management that could significantly affect our internal controls subsequent to our most recent evaluation. We have found no facts that would require us to take any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies or material weaknesses.
