RURBAN FINANCIAL CORP.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
NOTE A—BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. The financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company. Those adjustments consist only of normal recurring adjustments. Results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of results for the complete year.
The condensed consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2005 has been derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of that date.
For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.
Stock Based Compensation
Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123(R) using the “modified prospective” method, and accordingly, will not restate prior period results. SFAS 123(R) requires compensation expense to be recognized for all stock options granted after the date of adoption and for all previously granted stock options that vest after the date of adoption. The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model, which is consistent with the Company’s valuation methodology previously utilized for options in the footnote disclosures required under SFAS No. 123. The impact of this adoption on financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2006 is not considered material.
Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company accounted for its stock option plan under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related interpretations. Under APB Opinion No. 25, no stock-based employee compensation cost was reflected in net income, as all options granted under the Company’s stock option plan had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the grant date.
As of March 31, 2006, the Company had 19,000 nonvested options outstanding and there was $89,100 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to these nonvested options. This cost is expected to be recognized monthly on a straight-line basis as each option is vested through December 21, 2010.

NOTE D – REGULATORY MATTERS
The Company, State Bank and Exchange Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal and state banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators. If undertaken, these actions could have a direct material adverse effect on the Company’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company, State Bank and Exchange Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company, State Bank and Exchange Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total and Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier I capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). As of March 31, 2006 and 2005, the Company, State Bank and Exchange Bank exceeded all “well-capitalized” requirements to which they are subject.
As of December 31, 2005, the most recent notification to the regulators categorized the State Bank and Exchange Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, State Bank and Exchange Bank must maintain capital ratios as set

NOTE F — NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In March 2006, SFAS No. 156, “Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets,” was issued. SFAS No. 156 amends SFAS No. 140, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities,” as it relates to the accounting for separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities by requiring that all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities be initially measured by fair value, if practicable. SFAS No. 156 also permits the subsequent measurement of separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities at fair value. The Company is currently measuring the effects of SFAS No. 156 and looks to adopt it in the fourth quarter of 2006. At this time, the Company deems this adoption to be immaterial to the financial position or results of operations.
NOTE G – COMMITMENTS AND CREDIT RISK
As of March 31, 2006, loan commitments and unused lines of credit totaled $128,612,000, standby letters of credit totaled $667,000 and no commercial letters of credit were outstanding.
NOTE H – SEGMENT INFORMATION
The reportable segments are determined by the products and services offered, primarily distinguished between banking and data processing operations. Other segments include the accounts of the holding company, Rurban, which combined provides management and operational services to its subsidiaries; Rurban Operations Corp., which provides operational services for the company’s subsidiaries as described in Item 2.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements that are provided to assist in the understanding of anticipated future financial performance. Forward-looking statements provide current expectations or forecasts of future events and are not guarantees of future performance. Examples of forward-looking statements include: (a) projections of income or expense, earnings per share, the payments or non-payments of dividends, capital structure and other financial items; (b) statements of plans and objectives of the Company or our management or Board of Directors, including those relating to products or services; (c) statements of future economic performance; and (d) statements of assumptions underlying such statements. Words such as “believes,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “targeted,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements but are not the exclusive means of identifying those statements. Forward-looking statements are based on management’s expectations and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. Although management believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in such statements. Risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially include, without limitation, changes in interest rates, changes in the competitive environment, and changes in banking regulations or other regulatory or legislative requirements affecting bank holding companies. Additional detailed information concerning a number of important factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is available in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including the disclosure under the heading “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of Part I of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005. Undue reliance should not be placed on the forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. Except as may be required by law, the Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made to reflect unanticipated events.
Rurban is a bank holding company registered with the Federal Reserve Board. Rurban’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, State Bank and Exchange Bank, are engaged in commercial banking. Rurban’s subsidiary, Rurbanc Data Services, Inc. (“RDSI”), provides computerized data processing services to community banks and businesses.
Rurban Statutory Trust I (“RST”) was established in August 2000. In September 2000, RST completed a pooled private offering of 10,000 Capital Securities with a liquidation amount of $1,000 per security. The proceeds of the offering were loaned to the Company in exchange for junior subordinated debentures of the Company with terms substantially similar to the Capital Securities. The sole assets of RST are the junior subordinated debentures, and the back-up obligations, in the aggregate, constitute a full and unconditional guarantee by the Company of the obligations of RST under the Capital Securities.
Rurban Statutory Trust II (“RST II”) was established in August 2005. In September 2005, RST II completed a pooled private offering of 10,000 Capital Securities with a liquidation amount of $1,000 per security. The proceeds of the offering were loaned to the Company in exchange for junior subordinated debentures of the Company with terms substantially similar to the Capital Securities. The sole assets of RST II are the junior subordinated debentures, and the back-up obligations, in the aggregate, constitute a full and unconditional guarantee by the Company of the obligations of RST II under the Capital Securities.

Critical Accounting Policies
Note 1 to the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005 describes the significant accounting policies used in the development and presentation of the Company’s financial statements. The accounting and reporting policies of the Company are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and conform to general practices within the banking industry. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions. The Company’s financial position and results of operations can be affected by these estimates and assumptions and are integral to the understanding of reported results. Critical accounting policies are those policies that management believes are the most important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition and results, and they require management to make estimates that are difficult, subjective, or complex.
Allowance for Loan Losses — The allowance for loan losses provides coverage for probable losses inherent in the Company’s loan portfolio. Management evaluates the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses each quarter based on changes, if any, in underwriting activities, loan portfolio composition (including product mix and geographic, industry or customer-specific concentrations), trends in loan performance, regulatory guidance and economic factors. This evaluation is inherently subjective, as it requires the use of significant management estimates. Many factors can affect management’s estimates of specific and expected losses, including volatility of default probabilities, rating migrations, loss severity and economic and political conditions. The allowance is increased through provisions charged to operating earnings and reduced by net charge-offs.
The Company determines the amount of the allowance based on relative risk characteristics of the loan portfolio. The allowance recorded for commercial loans is based on reviews of individual credit relationships and an analysis of the migration of commercial loans and actual loss experience. The allowance recorded for homogeneous consumer loans is based on an analysis of loan mix, risk characteristics of the portfolio, fraud loss and bankruptcy experiences, and historical losses, adjusted for current trends, for each homogeneous category or group of loans. The allowance for credit losses relating to impaired loans is based on the loan’s observable market price, the collateral for certain collateral-dependent loans, or the discounted cash flows using the loan’s effective interest rate.
Regardless of the extent of the Company’s analysis of customer performance, portfolio trends or risk management processes, certain inherent but undetected losses are probable within the loan portfolio. This is due to several factors, including inherent delays in obtaining information regarding a customer’s financial condition or changes in their unique business conditions, the subjective nature of individual loan evaluations, collateral assessments and the interpretation of economic trends. Volatility of economic or customer-specific conditions affecting the identification and estimation of losses for larger

Table of Contents

non-homogeneous credits and the sensitivity of assumptions utilized to establish allowances for homogenous groups of loans are also factors. The Company estimates a range of inherent losses related to the existence of these exposures. The estimates are based upon the Company’s evaluation of imprecise risk associated with the commercial and consumer allowance levels and the estimated impact of the current economic environment. To the extent that actual results differ from management’s estimates, additional loan loss provisions may be required that could adversely impact earnings for future periods.
Goodwill and Other Intangibles The Company records all assets and liabilities acquired in purchase acquisitions, including goodwill and other intangibles, at fair value as required by SFAS 141. Goodwill is subject, at a minimum, to annual tests for impairment. Other intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives using straight-line or accelerated methods, and are subject to impairment if events or circumstances indicate a possible inability to realize the carrying amount. The initial goodwill and other intangibles recorded and subsequent impairment analysis requires management to make subjective judgments concerning estimates of how the acquired asset will perform in the future. Events and factors that may significantly effect the estimates include, among others, customer attrition, changes in revenue growth trends, specific industry conditions and changes in competition. A decrease in earnings resulting from these or other factors could lead to an impairment of goodwill that could adversely impact earnings of future periods.
Impact of Accounting Changes
In March 2006, SFAS No. 156, “Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets,” was issued. SFAS No. 156 amends SFAS No. 140, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities,” as it relates to the accounting for separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities by requiring that all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities be initially measured by fair value, if practicable. SFAS No. 156 also permits the subsequent measurement of separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities at fair value. The Company is currently measuring the effects of SFAS No. 156 and looks to adopt it in the fourth quarter of 2006. At this time, the Company deems that this adoption to be immaterial to the financial position or results of operations.
Quarterly Earnings Summary
Net income for the first quarter of 2006 was $523,000, or $0.10 per diluted share, versus $638,000, or $0.14 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2005. The quarterly decrease in net income is mainly driven by the provision for loan losses being $246,000 in the first quarter of 2006. Several recoveries were recorded in first quarter of 2005 resulting in no loan loss provision. The company believes the first quarter of 2006 is more indicative of where the provision will be on a quarterly basis. The acquisition of the Exchange Bank in the greater Toledo market is included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations for the first time in the first quarter of 2006.
Net interest income increased $867,000 to $3.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to $3.0 million for the first quarter 2005. The increase in net interest income is attributed to the 9 basis point improvement in the net interest margin to 3.37% compared to 3.28% in the first quarter of 2005. This improvement in net interest income is primarily due to the impact of the Exchange Bank acquisition. The improvement in the asset quality ratio also positively impacted the company’s net interest income.

The provision for loan losses was $246,000 for the first quarter of 2006 compared to $0 for the first quarter of 2005. Loan loss reserves were 1.29% of total loans in the first quarter of 2006 compared to 1.81% in the first quarter of 2005. This reduction in the loan loss reserve to loans ration is a result of the greatly improved asset quality ratios. The non-performing loans to assets ratio improved to 1.56% at the end if the first quarter of 2006 compared to 4.10% for the first quarter 2005.
Non-interest income increased $396,000 to $5.0 million in the first quarter of 2006 compared to $4.6 million for the first quarter of 2005. The increase in non-interest income was mainly the result of the increase in data processing fees of $84,000 associated with the expansion of RDSI’s customer base in 2005. Total customer service fees were up $113,000 and mortgage banking activities were up $53,000 and are a direct result of the Exchange Bank acquisition.
Non-interest expense increased $1.3 million to $8.0 million for the first quarter of 2006 compared to $6.7 million for the first quarter of 2005. Exchange Bank’s non-interest expense totaled $1.3 million for the first quarter of 2006. On-going operating expenses at State Bank were well-controlled, and declining on a quarterly basis since the acquisition of the Lima branches in the second quarter of 2005. The operating expenses within the loan workout company, RFCBC, also decreased significantly in the first quarter of 2006 compared to the first quarter of 2005. Management continues to monitor expenses daily and looks to gain additional efficiencies as additional backroom operations are fully integrated with the recent acquisitions.
Changes in Financial Condition
March 31, 2006 vs. December 31, 2005
At March 31, 2006, total assets were $538.2 million, an increase of $7.7 million from December 31, 2005. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in loans and federal funds sold of $10.7 million and $4.2 million, respectively. The increase was partially offset by decreases in available for sale securities of $9.2 million. The entire securities portfolio of Exchange Bank was liquidated in the first quarter of 2006 and only a portion was reinvested in securities.
At March 31, 2006, the increase in total liabilities and shareholders’ equity of $7.7 million from December 31, 2005 was mainly attributable to increases in total deposits and repurchase agreements of $13.7 million and $9.3 million, respectively. These increases were somewhat offset by decreases in notes payable, federal funds purchased and other liabilities of $0.9, $4.6 and $6.6 million, respectively. The reduction to notes payable was attributable to RDSI paying down debt. The $6.6 million reduction in other liabilities was due to the payout to shareholders of Exchange Bank during the first quarter of 2006.
March 31, 2006 vs. March 31, 2005
As of March 31, 2006, total assets increased $123.7 million from March 31, 2005. The majority of the increase was due to the acquisitions of the Lima branches and Exchange Bank. The increase was offset by the reduction of problem loan balances within the loan workout company RFCBC.
Linked Quarter Comparison
The Company reported a net profit for the first quarter of 2006 of $523,000, or $0.10 per diluted share, versus a net loss of $344,000, or $0.08 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2005. The

21


Table of Contents

first quarter profit was mainly due to an improvement in the net interest margin coupled with a reduction in the provision for loan losses as a result of continued improvements in credit quality. Also impacting the variance for the linked quarter was the sale of approximately $8.4 million in troubled loans at RFCBC resulting in a loss on sale of loans of $499,000 in the fourth quarter of 2005. The acquisition of the Exchange Bank in the first quarter of 2006 also impacted the company’s overall performance as this was the first quarter that Exchange Bank was included in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Net interest income increased $717,000 or 23% to $3.9 million for the first quarter of 2006 when compared to the fourth quarter of 2005. This increase was driven by the inclusion of earning assets from Exchange Bank during the first quarter of 2006.
A comparison of financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 to the previous quarter ended December 31, 2005 is as follows:

The increase in net interest margin was principally a result of higher margin from Exchange Bank.
Loan Loss Provision
The provision for loan losses was $246,000 for the first quarter of 2006 compared to $613,000 in the fourth quarter of 2005. The decrease in the provision in the first quarter was the result of the continued review and determination of the level of reserves necessary to absorb probable losses in the loan portfolio.

Of the $8.4 million of non-performing assets, a commercial building valued at $2.1 million is currently being marketed for sale. The $0.6 million in net charge-offs for the first quarter was primarily related to the write-down of previously identified problem loans.

Allowance for Loan Losses
The Company grades its loans using an eight grade system. Loans with concerns are classified as either:
    Grade 5 — Special Mention: Potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention;
 
    Grade 6 — Substandard: Inadequately protected, with well-defined weakness that jeopardize pay off of debt;
 
    Grade 7 — Doubtful: Inherent weaknesses which are well-defined and a high probability of loss (impaired) (these loans are typically reserved down to collateralized values); or
 
    Grade 8 — Loss: Considered uncollectible. May have recovery or salvage value with future collection efforts (these loans are either fully reserved or charged off).
The Company’s allowance for loan losses has four components. Those components are shown in the following table. Commercial, commercial real estate and agricultural loans of over $100,000 ($25,000 at Exchange Bank) are individually reviewed and assessed regarding the need for an individual allocation.

LIQUIDITY
Liquidity relates primarily to the Company’s ability to fund loan demand, meet deposit customers’ withdrawal requirements and provide for operating expenses. Assets used to satisfy these needs consist of cash and due from banks, federal funds sold, interest earning deposits in other financial institutions, securities available-for sale and loans held for sale. These assets are commonly referred to as liquid assets. Liquid assets were $146.8 million at March 31, 2006 compared to $152.4 million at December 31, 2005.
The Company’s residential first mortgage portfolio of $88.5 million at March 31, 2006 and $89.1 million at December 31, 2005, which can and has been used to collateralize borrowings, is an additional source of liquidity. Management believes its current liquidity level is sufficient to meet its liquidity needs. At March 31, 2006, all eligible mortgage loans were pledged under a Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) blanket lien.
The cash flow statements for the periods presented provide an indication of the Company’s sources and uses of cash as well as an indication of the ability of the Company to maintain an adequate level of liquidity. A discussion of the cash flow statements at March 31, 2006 and 2005 follows.
The Company experienced positive cash flows from operating activities at March 31, 2006 and 2005. Net cash from operating activities was $125,922 and $553,005, respectively, at March 31, 2006 and 2005.
Net cash flow from investing activities was $(11.5) million and $1.9 million at March 31, 2006 and 2005 respectively. The changes in net cash from investing activities at March 31, 2006 include loan growth of $11.4 million and the payment to the Exchange shareholders of $6.5 million partially offset by an decrease in securities of $8.5 million. The changes in net cash from investing activities at March 31, 2005 include an decrease in securities of $4.6 million partially offset by loan growth of $2.0 million.
Net cash flow from financing activities was $15.2 million and $37,550 at March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The net cash variance was primarily due to an increase in total deposits of $13.7 million at March 31, 2006 compared to an increase of total deposits of $5.3 million at March 31, 2005.

Off-Balance-Sheet Borrowing Arrangements:
Significant additional off-balance-sheet liquidity is available in the form of FHLB advances, unused federal funds lines from correspondent banks, and the national certificate of deposit market.
Approximately $77.5 million of the Company’s $88.5 million residential first mortgage loan portfolio qualifies to collateralize FHLB borrowings and was pledged to meet FHLB collateralization requirements as of March 31, 2006. In addition to residential first mortgage loans, $14.2 million in investment securities are pledged to meet FHLB collateralization requirements. Based on the current collateralization requirements of the FHLB, approximately $21.1 million of additional borrowing capacity existed at March 31, 2006.
As of March 31, 2006, the Company had unused federal funds lines totaling $20.9 million from four correspondent banks. At December 31, 2005, the Company had $20.9 million in federal fund lines. Federal funds borrowed were $0 at March 31, 2006 and $4.6 million at December 31, 2005.

ASSET LIABILITY MANAGEMENT
Asset liability management involves developing and monitoring strategies to maintain sufficient liquidity, maximize net interest income and minimize the impact that significant fluctuations in market interest rates would have on earnings. The business of the Company and the composition of its balance sheet consists of investments in interest-earning assets (primarily loans, mortgage-backed securities, and securities available for sale) which are primarily funded by interest-bearing liabilities (deposits and borrowings). With the exception of loans which are originated and held for sale, all of the financial

instruments of the Company are for other than trading purposes. All of the Company’s transactions are denominated in U.S. dollars with no specific foreign exchange exposure. In addition, the Company has limited exposure to commodity prices related to agricultural loans. The impact of changes in foreign exchange rates and commodity prices on interest rates are assumed to be insignificant. The Company’s financial instruments have varying levels of sensitivity to changes in market interest rates resulting in market risk. Interest rate risk is the Company’s primary market risk exposure; to a lesser extent, liquidity risk also impacts market risk exposure.
Interest rate risk is the exposure of a banking institution’s financial condition to adverse movements in interest rates. Accepting this risk can be an important source of profitability and stockholder value; however, excessive levels of interest rate risk could pose a significant threat to the Company’s earnings and capital base. Accordingly, effective risk management that maintains interest rate risks at prudent levels is essential to the Company’s safety and soundness.
Evaluating a financial institution’s exposure to changes in interest rates includes assessing both the adequacy of the management process used to control interest rate risk and the organization’s quantitative level of exposure. When assessing the interest rate risk management process, the Company seeks to ensure that appropriate policies, procedures, management information systems, and internal controls are in place to maintain interest rate risks at prudent levels of consistency and continuity. Evaluating the quantitative level of interest rate risk exposure requires the Company to assess the existing and potential future effects of changes in interest rates on its consolidated financial condition, including capital adequacy, earnings, liquidity, and asset quality (when appropriate).
The Federal Reserve Board, together with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Federal Deposit Insurance Company, adopted a Joint Agency Policy Statement on interest rate risk effective June 26, 1996. The policy statement provides guidance to examiners and bankers on sound practices for managing interest rate risk, and serves as the basis for ongoing evaluation of the adequacy of interest rate risk management at supervised institutions. The policy statement also outlines fundamental elements of sound management that have been identified in prior Federal Reserve guidance and discusses the importance of these elements in the context of managing interest rate risk. Specifically, the guidance emphasizes the need for active Board of Director and senior management oversight and a comprehensive risk management process that effectively identifies, measures, and controls interest rate risk.
Financial institutions derive their income primarily from the excess of interest collected over interest paid. The rates of interest an institution earns on its assets and owes on its liabilities generally are established contractually for a period of time. Since market interest rates change over time, an institution is exposed to lower profit margins (or losses) if it cannot adapt to interest rate changes. For example, assume that an institution’s assets carry intermediate or long term fixed rates and that those assets are funded with short-term liabilities. If market interest rates rise by the time the short-term liabilities must be refinanced, the increase in the institution’s interest expense on its liabilities may not be sufficiently offset if assets continue to earn at the long-term fixed rates. Accordingly, an institution’s profits could decrease on existing assets because the institution will either have lower net interest income or possibly, net interest expense. Similar risks exist when assets are subject to contractual interest rate ceilings, or rate sensitive assets are funded by longer-term, fixed-rate liabilities in a declining rate environment.
There are several ways an institution can manage interest rate risk including: 1) matching repricing periods for new assets and liabilities, for example, by shortening terms of new loans or investments; 2) selling existing assets or repaying certain liabilities; and 3) hedging existing assets, liabilities, or anticipated transactions. An institution might also invest in more complex financial instruments intended to hedge or otherwise change interest rate risk. Interest rate swaps, futures contacts, options on futures contracts, and other such derivative financial instruments can be used for this purpose. Because these

instruments are sensitive to interest rate changes, they require management’s expertise to be effective. The Company has not purchased derivative financial instruments in the past.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The following table provides information about the Company’s financial instruments used for purposes other than trading that are sensitive to changes in interest rates as of March 31, 2006. It does not present when these items may actually reprice. For loans receivable, securities, and liabilities with contractual maturities, the table presents principal cash flows and related weighted-average interest rates by contractual maturities as well as the Company’s historical experience of the impact of interest rate fluctuations on the prepayment of loans and mortgage backed securities. For core deposits (demand deposits, interest-bearing checking, savings, and money market deposits) that have no contractual maturity, the table presents principal cash flows and, as applicable, related weighted-average interest rates based upon the Company’s historical experience, management’s judgment and statistical analysis, as applicable, concerning their most likely withdrawal behaviors. The current historical interest rates for core deposits have been assumed to apply for future periods in this table as the actual interest rates that will need to be paid to maintain these deposits are not currently known. Weighted average variable rates are based upon contractual rates existing at the reporting date.

The above table reflects expected maturities, not expected repricing. The contractual maturities adjusted for anticipated prepayments and anticipated renewals at current interest rates, as shown in the preceding table, are only part of the Company’s interest rate risk profile. Other important factors include the ratio of rate-sensitive assets to rate sensitive liabilities (which takes into consideration loan repricing frequency but not when deposits may be repriced) and the general level and direction of market interest rates. For core deposits, the repricing frequency is assumed to be longer than when such deposits actually reprice. For some rate sensitive liabilities, their repricing frequency is the same as their contractual maturity. For variable rate loans receivable, repricing frequency can be daily or monthly. For adjustable rate loans receivable, repricing can be as frequent as annually for loans whose contractual maturities range from one to thirty years. While increasingly aggressive local market competition in lending rates has pushed loan rates lower, the Company’s increased reliance on non-core funding sources has restricted the Company’s ability to reduce funding rates in concert with declines in lending rates.
The Company manages its interest rate risk by the employment of strategies to assure that desired levels of both interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities mature or reprice with similar time frames. Such strategies include: 1) loans receivable which are renewed (and repriced) annually, 2) variable rate loans, 3) certificates of deposit with terms from one month to six years and 4) securities available for sale which mature at various times primarily from one through ten years, 5) federal funds borrowings with terms of one day to 90 days, and 6) Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings with terms of one day to ten years.
