FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 evidences Congress’ determination that the disclosure of forward-looking information is desirable for investors and encourages such disclosure by providing a safe harbor for forward-looking statements by corporate management. This Form 10Q, including Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, contains forward-looking statements that involve risk and uncertainty. “Forward-looking statements” are easily identified by the use of words such as “could,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” and similar words that refer to a future outlook. To comply with the terms of the safe harbor, the company notes that a variety of factors could cause the company’s actual results and experience to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in the company’s forward-looking statements.

 

The risks and uncertainties that may affect the operations, performance, development and results of the company’s business include, but are not limited to, the growth of the economy, interest rate movements, the impact of competitive products, services and pricing, customer business requirements, Congressional legislation and similar matters. We caution readers of this report not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements which are subject to influence by the named risk factors and unanticipated future events. Actual results, accordingly, may differ materially from management expectations.

POTOMAC BANCSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2005 (UNAUDITED) AND DECEMBER 31, 2004

 

1. In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position as of September 30, 2005, and December 31, 2004, the results of operations for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, and cash flows and statements of changes in stockholders’ equity for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004. The statements should be read in conjunction with Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Potomac Bancshares, Inc. annual report for the year ended December 31, 2004. The results of operations for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

 

The consolidated financial statements of Potomac Bancshares, Inc. (the company) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Bank of Charles Town (the bank), include the accounts of both companies. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform to the current year presentation.

 

2. The 2003 Stock Incentive Plan was approved by stockholders on May 13, 2003 which authorized up to 180,000 shares of common stock to be used in the granting of incentive options to employees and directors. This is the first stock incentive plan adopted by the company. Under the plan, the option price cannot be less than the fair market value of the stock on the date granted. An option’s maximum term is ten years from the date of grant. The company granted 44,982 options in the first quarter of 2005 and 35,988 options in the first quarter of 2004. No options were granted in 2003. Options granted under the plan may be subject to a graded vesting schedule.

 

The company accounts for the plan under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations. No stock-based compensation cost is reflected in net income, as all options granted under the plan have an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to stock-based compensation.

The primary purpose of the investment portfolio is to generate income and meet liquidity needs of the company through readily saleable financial instruments. The portfolio is made up of fixed rate bonds, whose prices move inversely with rates. At the end of any accounting period, the investment portfolio has unrealized gains and losses. The company monitors the portfolio which is subject to liquidity needs, market rate changes and credit risk changes to see if adjustments are needed. The primary concern in a loss situation is the credit quality of the business behind the instrument. The primary cause of impairments is the decline in the prices of the bonds as rates have risen. There are approximately 31 accounts in the consolidated portfolio that have losses. These securities have not suffered credit deterioration and the company has the ability and intent to hold these issues to maturity; therefore, the gross unrealized losses are considered temporary as of September 30, 2005.

 

The following table summarizes the fair value and gross unrealized losses for securities aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous gross unrealized loss position as of September 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004 (in thousands).

10. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement No. 154, (“SFAS No. 154”) “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections - A Replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3.” The new standard changes the requirements for the accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle. Among other changes, SFAS No. 154 requires that a voluntary change in accounting principle be applied retrospectively with all prior period financial statements presented on the new accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to do so. SFAS No. 154 also provides that (1) a change in method of depreciating or amortizing a long-lived nonfinancial asset be accounted for as a change in estimate (prospectively) that was effected by a change in accounting principle, and (2) correction of errors in previously issued financial statements should be termed a “restatement”. The new standard is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The company does not anticipate this revision will have a material effect on its financial statements.

 

On December 16, 2004, FASB issued Statement No. 123R (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment,” (FAS 123R) that addresses the accounting for share-based payment transactions in which a company receives employee services in exchange for either equity instruments of the company or liabilities that are based on the fair value of the company’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of such equity instruments. FAS 123R eliminates the ability to account for share-based compensation transactions using the intrinsic method and requires that such transactions be accounted for using a fair-value-based method and recognized as expense in the consolidated statement of income. The effective date of FAS 123R (as amended by the SEC) is for annual periods beginning after June 15, 2005. The provisions of FAS 123R are not anticipated to have a material effect on the company’s results of operations.

 

In March 2005, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulleting No. 107 (SAB 107). SAB 107 expresses the views of the SEC staff regarding the interaction of FAS 123R and certain SEC rules and regulations and provides the SEC staff’s view regarding the valuation of share-based payment arrangements for public companies. SAB 107 is not anticipated to have a material effect on the company’s results of operations.

In November 2003, the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) published Issue 03-1, “The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments.” The Task Force discussed the meaning of other-than-temporary impairment and its application to certain investments carried at cost. The Task Force requested that the FASB staff consider other impairment models within U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) when developing its views. The Task Force also requested that the scope of the impairment issue be expanded to include equity investments and investments subject to FASB Statement No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities,” and that the issue be addressed by the Task Force as a separate EITF issue. At the EITF meeting, the Task Force reached a consensus on one issue that certain quantitative and qualitative disclosures should be required for securities accounted for under Statement 115 that are impaired at the balance sheet date but for which an other-than-temporary impairment has not been recognized. The Board ratified the consensus on that one issue. In September 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) directed the FASB staff to issue two proposed FASB Staff Positions (“FSP”): Proposed FSP EITF Issue 03-1-a, which provides guidance for the application of paragraph 16 of EITF Issue 03-1 to debt securities that are impaired because of interest rate and/or sector spread increases and Proposed FSP EITF Issue 03-1-b, which delays the effective date of Issue 03-1 for debt securities that are impaired because of interest rate and/or sector spread increases. In June 2005, the FASB reached a decision whereby they declined to provide additional guidance on the meaning of other-than-temporary impairment. The Board directed the FASB staff to issue EITF 03-1a as final and to draft a new FSP that will replace EITF 03-01. The final FSP (retitled FAS 115-1, “The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments”) would be effective for other-than-temporary impairment analysis conducted in periods beginning after September 15, 2005. The company does not anticipate this revision will have a material effect on its financial statements.

 

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

General

 

The company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The financial information contained within our statements is, to a significant extent, financial information that is based on measures of the financial effects of transactions and events that have already occurred. A variety of factors could affect the ultimate value that is obtained either when earning income, recognizing an expense, recovering an asset or relieving a liability. We use historical loss factors as one factor in determining the inherent loss that may be present in our loan portfolio. Actual losses could differ significantly from the historical factors that we use. In addition, GAAP itself may change from one previously acceptable method to another method. Although the economics of our transactions would be the same, the timing of events that would impact our transactions could change.

 

Allowance for Loan Losses

 

The allowance for loan losses is an estimate of the losses that may be sustained in our loan portfolio. The allowance is based on two basic principles of accounting: (i) SFAS 5, Accounting for Contingencies, which requires that losses be accrued when they are probable of occurring and estimatable and (ii) SFAS 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, which requires that losses be accrued based on the differences between the value of collateral, present value of future cash flows or values that are observable in the secondary market and the loan balance.

 

Our allowance for loan losses has two basic components: the formula allowance and the unallocated allowance. Each of these components is determined based upon estimates that can and do change when the actual events occur. The formula allowance uses a historical loss view as an indicator of future losses and, as a result, could differ from the loss incurred in the future. However, since this history is updated with the most recent loss information, the errors that might otherwise occur are mitigated. The unallocated allowance captures losses that are attributable to various economic events, industry or geographic sectors whose impact on the portfolio have occurred but have yet to be recognized in the formula allowance.

 

FINANCIAL OVERVIEW

 

Total assets have increased $27 million or 11% from the December 2004 total of $248.5 million to $275.7 million at September 30, 2005. An increase in loans of $30 million during this time period combined with a decrease in cash and due from banks makes up the majority of the change on the asset side of the balance sheet.

 

11


Total deposits have increased $30.6 million or 15% at September 30, 2005 compared to December 31, 2004. The increase in noninterest-bearing deposits is 5% at September 30, 2005 compared to December 31, 2004. Interest-bearing deposits have increased 17% during this time period. During the third quarter of 2005, we acquired $3.4 million in brokered certificates of deposit. This is the first time the bank has had brokered deposits of any kind. These deposits have a five year maturity and were acquired to fund several large loans with equivalent maturities.

 

The September 30, 2005 annualized return on average assets is 1.46% compared to 1.37% at December 31, 2004. At September 30, 2005 the annualized return on average equity is 16.2% compared to 14.02% at December 31, 2004. The leverage capital (equity to assets) ratio is 9.21% at September 30, 2005 compared to 9.45% at December 31, 2004.

 

The following table is an analysis of the company’s allowance for loan losses with amounts shown in thousands. Net charge-offs for the company have been very low when compared with the size of the total loan portfolio. Management monitors the loan portfolio on a continual basis with procedures that allow for problem loans and potential problem loans to be highlighted and watched. Written reports are prepared on a quarterly basis for all loans and information on commercial loans graded below a certain level are reported to the Board of Directors on a monthly basis. Based on experience, these loan policies and the bank’s grading and review system, management believes the loan loss allowance is adequate.

Loans are placed on nonaccrual status when principal or interest is delinquent for 90 days or more. Interest income generally is not recognized on specific impaired loans unless the likelihood of further loss is remote. Interest income on other nonaccrual loans is recognized only to the extent of interest payments received. Following is a table showing the risk elements in the loan portfolio with amounts in thousands.

At September 30, 2005, other potential problem loans (excluding impaired loans) totalled $1.5 million. Loans are viewed as potential problem loans according to the ability of such borrowers to comply with current repayment terms. These loans are subject to constant management attention, and their status is reviewed on a regular basis. A portion of the allowance for loan losses is specifically allocated for these loans as a group at a rate that reflects the potential problems these loans may present.

 

The comparison of the income statements for the three months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 shows similar differences between 2005 and 2004. Some of the details are highlighted below.

 

    Net income in 2005 is 26.5% greater than 2004 net income.

 

    At September 30, 2005 total interest and dividend income is up 28.2% compared to September 30, 2004 due to loan growth and some increase in interest rates.

 

    The income on the securities portfolio for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 is about the same as for the same time period in 2004.

 

    Interest expense continues to increase. At the end of March 31, 2005 interest expense was 45% above 2004 expense for the same time period. At the end of June, 2005 it is 60% above 2004 expense at June 30. At the end of the 2005 September quarter interest expense is 64% above 2004 expense for the same period. The increase in expense is a combination of growth in deposits and higher interest rates being paid to retain deposits and attract additional deposit growth.

 

    Net interest income through September 30, 2005 is 19% greater than at September 30, 2004. This percentage was 20% at the period ended June 30, 2005 compared to the prior year.

 

    Net interest margin at September 30, 2005 is 4.60%, down slightly from the December 31, 2004 figure of 4.66%. During the first nine months of 2005, the overall average rate on loans has increased to 6.91% compared to 6.68% at December 31, 2004. During this same period the overall average rate being paid on deposits also increased to 1.73% compared to 1.31% at December 31, 2004.

 

Noninterest income increased 14% for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 compared to September 30, 2004. Some significant income items are listed here.

 

    Trust and financial services income increased 22% at September 30, 2005 compared to September 30, 2004 due in large part to accrual of estate fees and to the continued contribution from BCT Investments.

 

    Service charges on deposit accounts have increased only 5% in 2005 over 2004 and are still slightly under budget at September 30, 2005. The majority of these fees are overdraft related and may be under budget due to slower deposit growth than anticipated by the budget.

 

    Credit and debit card fees have increased 55% at September 30, 2005 compared to the same time in 2004 due to the growth in the deposit account base and concentrated sale of cards by bank personnel.

 

    Net gain on sale of loans has increased 23% at September 30, 2005 compared to the same time in 2004. However, loan managers have noticed a slowdown in business during the third quarter.

 

    Other noninterest income has increased 3% as of September 30, 2005 compared to September 30, 2004. There are no significant increases or decreases in the accounts making up this category.

 

13


Noninterest expense increased 12% for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 compared to the same period in 2004. This was the same percentage of increase that we disclosed for the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to June of 2004, so costs are being contained. Some details of this increase are listed below.

 

    Salaries and employee benefits for the first nine months of 2005 are 8% more than for the first nine months of 2004 due to annual salary increases, some increase in staffing and related costs. (This percentage has also been maintained through the third quarter as it was during the first and second quarters.)

 

    Occupancy and furniture and equipment expense has increased 13% in 2005 compared to 2004. As the bank continues to grow so does the space and equipment needed to respond to the growth. Facilities have been remodeled, several additional office spaces have been leased and, as has been the case for a number of years, the bank’s continual attention to staying on the cutting edge of technology comes at considerable cost.

 

    Advertising and marketing expenses have increased 31% in 2005 compared to 2004 due to continual efforts to grow the bank’s customer base by keeping Bank of Charles Town in the public “eye” as well as to keep customers informed. These efforts include media advertising and statement stuffers about the bank’s services and information to enable our customers to be educated consumers by making them aware of the increasing fraudulent schemes and scams in the market place today.

 

    Auditing and accounting expenses have increased over 202% in 2005 compared to 2004 primarily due to compliance efforts related to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. We have temporarily outsourced our internal audit function so that our internal auditor can concentrate on the Sarbanes-Oxley compliance issues. In addition to our internal auditor, we have engaged an additional accounting firm to aid in documentation and testing in this regard. With the delay in the required compliance of Sarbanes-Oxley, this expense will be less than originally budgeted for 2005.

 

    ATM and check card expenses have increased 29% in the first nine months of 2005 compared to the same time period in 2004 due to growth in the deposit account base and concentrated sales efforts of the bank staff to market this product.

 

    Other noninterest expenses have increased 11% at September 30, 2005 compared to September 30, 2004. Through June of 2005 this percentage was 12%. Significant increases in this category include the following.

 

    Outsourcing of a portion of the trust review function shows an increase in expense of 114% in 2005 compared to 2004 because we did not start this service until May of 2004.

 

    Directors and committee fees have increased in 2005 compared to 2004 because (1) 2005 is first full year for two directors who came on the board in March 2004; (2) there has been one special board meeting in 2005; and (3) the financial expert and other audit committee members are being paid increased committee fees with the additional time requirements as a result of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

 

    Printing, stationery and supplies expense is 38% greater in 2005 than in 2004 because of continually growing customer base and required additional statements, statement stuffers and other similar items.

 

    Home equity closing costs are up in 2005 compared to 2004 due to increased loans being made.

 

    Online banking expense has decreased in 2005 compared to 2004 due to the pay off of the maintenance agreement of the previous vendor for our online banking product.

LIQUIDITY

 

Liquid assets of the company include cash and due from banks, securities purchased under agreements to resell, federal funds sold, securities available for sale, and loans and investments maturing within one year. The company’s statement of cash flows details this liquidity since January 1, 2005.

 

Operating Activities. The company’s net income provides cash from the bank’s operating activities. The net income figure is adjusted for certain noncash transactions, such as depreciation expense, that reduce net income but do not require a cash outlay. Through September 30, 2005 net income as adjusted has provided cash of $2.6 million. Interest income earned on loans and investments is the company’s major income source.

 

Investing Activities. Customer deposits and company borrowings provide the funds used to invest in loans and securities investments. In addition, the principal portion of loan payments and payoffs and funds from maturing investments provide cash flow. Purchases of bank premises and equipment are an investing activity. The net amount of cash used in investing activities through September 30, 2005 is $31.1 million.

 

Financing Activities. Customer deposits and company borrowings provide the financing for the investing activities as stated above. If the company has an excess of funds on any given day, the bank will sell these funds to make additional interest income to fund activities. Likewise, if the company has a shortage of funds on any given day it will purchase funds and pay interest for the use of these funds. Financing activities also include payment of dividends, purchase of shares of the company’s common stock for the treasury and repayment of any borrowed or purchased funds. The net amount of cash provided by financing activities in 2005 through September 30 is $24.5 million.

 

The company has additional funding sources in the Federal Home Loan Bank, The Bankers Bank and Mercantile-Safe Deposit and Trust Company. Liquidity of the company is adequate to meet present and future financial obligations.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in the fair value of financial instruments due to changes in interest rates, exchange rates and equity prices. The company’s market risk is composed primarily of interest rate risk. The company’s Asset and Liability Management Committee (ALCO) is responsible for reviewing the interest rate sensitivity position and establishing policies to monitor and limit exposure to this risk. The Board of Directors reviews and approves the guidelines established by ALCO.

 

Interest rate risk is monitored through the use of three complementary modeling tools: static gap analysis, earnings simulation modeling and economic value simulation (net present value estimation). Each of these models measures changes in a variety of interest rate scenarios. While each of the interest rate risk measures has limitations, taken together they represent a reasonably comprehensive view of the magnitude of interest rate risk in the company, the distribution of risk along the yield curve, the level of risk through time, and the amount of exposure to changes in certain interest rate relationships. Static gap which measures aggregate repricing values is less utilized since it does not effectively measure the investment options risk impact on the company and is not addressed here. But earnings simulation and economic value models which more effectively measure the cash flow impacts are utilized by management on a regular basis and are explained below.

 

Earnings Simulation Analysis

 

Management uses simulation analysis to measure the sensitivity of net income to change in interest rates. The model calculates an earnings estimate based on current and projected balances and rates. This method is subject to the accuracy of the assumptions that underlie the process, but it provides a better analysis of the sensitivity of earnings to changes in interest rates than other analysis such as the static gap analysis.

 

Assumptions used in this model, including loan and deposit growth rates, are derived from seasonal trends, economic forecasts and management’s outlook, as are the assumptions used to project yields and rates for new loans and deposits. Maturities, calls and prepayments in the securities portfolio are assumed to be reinvested in like instruments. Mortgage loans and mortgage backed securities prepayment assumptions are based on industry estimates of repayment speeds for portfolios with similar coupon ranges and seasoning. Different interest rate scenarios and yield curves are used to measure the sensitivity of earnings to changing interest rates. Interest rates on different asset and liability accounts move differently when the prime rate changes and are accounted for in the different rate scenarios.

The most likely scenario represents the rate environment as management forecasts it to occur. From this base, rate shocks in 100 basis point increments are applied to see the impact on the company’s earnings. The following table represents the interest rate sensitivity on net income (fully tax equivalent basis) for the company using different rate scenarios as of June 30, 2005:

Economic Value Simulation

 

Economic value simulation is used to calculate the estimated fair value of assets and liabilities over different interest rate environments. Economic values are calculated based on discounted cash flow analysis. The economic value of equity is the economic value of all assets minus the economic value of all liabilities. The change in economic value of equity over different rate environments is an indication of the longer term repricing risk in the balance sheet. The same assumptions are used in the economic value simulation as in the earnings simulation.

 

The following chart reflects the change in net market value over different rate environments as of June 30, 2005:
