Century Bancorp, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
Basis
of Financial Statement Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Century Bancorp, Inc. (the
Company) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Century Bank and Trust Company (the Bank). The
consolidated financial statements also include the accounts of the Banks wholly-owned
subsidiaries, Century Subsidiary Investments, Inc. (CSII), Century Subsidiary Investments, Inc.
II (CSII II), Century Subsidiary Investments, Inc. III (CSII III). CSII, CSII II, CSII III are
engaged in buying, selling and holding investment securities. The Company also owns 100% of Century
Bancorp Capital Trust II (CBCT II). The entity is an unconsolidated subsidiary of the Company.
All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation. The Company provides a full range of banking services to individual, business and
municipal customers in Massachusetts. As a bank holding company, the Company is subject to the
regulation and supervision of the Federal Reserve Board. The Bank, a state chartered financial
institution, is subject to supervision and regulation by applicable state and federal banking
agencies, including the Federal Reserve Board, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the
FDIC) and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Commissioner of Banks. The Bank is also subject to
various requirements and restrictions under federal and state law, including requirements to
maintain reserves against deposits, restrictions on the types and amounts of loans that may be
granted and the interest that may be charged thereon, and limitations on the types of investments
that may be made and the types of services that may be offered. Various consumer laws and
regulations also affect the operations of the Bank. In addition to the impact of regulation,
commercial banks are affected significantly by the actions of the Federal Reserve Board as it
attempts to control the money supply and credit availability in order to influence the economy. All
aspects of the Companys business are highly competitive. The Company faces aggressive competition
from other lending institutions and from numerous other providers of financial services. The
Company has one reportable operating segment.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and
to general practices within the banking industry. In preparing the financial
statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the
balance sheet and revenues and expenses for the period. Actual results
could differ from those estimates. The 10Q should be read in conjunction
with the Companys Annual Report on form 10K for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2006, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Material estimates that are susceptible to change in the near-term relate to the
allowance for loan losses. Management believes that the allowance for loan losses is adequate based
on independent appraisals and review of other factors associated with the loans. While management
uses available information to recognize loan losses, future additions to the allowance for loan
losses may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions. In addition, regulatory agencies
periodically review the Companys allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require the Company
to recognize additions to the allowance for loan losses based on their judgments about information
available to them at the time of their examination.
Whenever necessary prior year amounts were reclassified to conform with the current year
presentation.

Summary of Critical Accounting Policies
Accounting policies involving significant judgments and
assumptions by management, which have, or could have, a material
impact on the carrying value of certain assets and impact income, are
considered critical accounting policies. The Company considers the
following to be its critical accounting policies: allowance for loan
losses and impairment of investment securities. There have been no
significant changes since December 31, 2006 in the methods or
assumptions used in the accounting policies that require material
estimates and assumptions.
Allowance for Loan Losses
Arriving at an appropriate level of allowance for loan losses necessarily involves a high
degree of judgment. Management maintains an allowance for loan losses to absorb losses inherent in
the loan portfolio. The allowance is based on assessments of the probable estimated losses inherent
in the loan portfolio. Managements methodology for assessing the appropriateness of the allowance
consists of several key elements, which include the formula allowance, specific allowances for
identified problem loans and the unallocated allowance.
The formula allowance evaluates groups of loans to determine the
allocation appropriate within each portfolio segment. Individual
loans within the commercial and industrial, commercial real estate
and real estate construction loan portfolio segments are assigned
internal risk ratings to group them with other loans possessing
similar risk characteristics. Changes in risk grades affect the
amount of the formula allowance. Risk grades are determined by
reviewing current collateral value, financial information, cash flow,
payment history and other relevant facts surrounding the particular
credit. Allowance for losses on the remaining commercial and
commercial real estate loans are based on pools of similar loans
using a combination of historical loss experience and qualitative
adjustments. For the residential real estate and consumer loan
portfolios, the reserves are calculated by applying historical
charge-off and recovery experience and qualitative adjustments to the
current outstanding balance in each loan category. Loss factors are
based on the Companys historical loss experience, as well as
regulatory guidelines.
Specific allowances for loan losses entails the assignment of
allowance amounts to individual loans on the basis of loan
impairment. Certain loans are evaluated individually and are judged
to be impaired when management believes it is probable that the
Company will not collect all the contractual interest and principal
payments as scheduled in the loan agreement. Under this method,
loans are selected for evaluation based upon a change in internal
risk rating, occurrence of delinquency or non-accrual status. A
specific allowance amount is allocated to an individual loan when
such a loan has been deemed impaired and when the amount of a
probable loss is able to be estimated on the basis of: (a.) present
value of anticipated future cash flows, (b.) the loans observable
fair market price or (c.) fair value of collateral, if the loan is
collateral dependent.
The unallocated allowance recognizes the model and estimation risk associated with the
formula allowance and specific allowances, as well as managements evaluation of various
conditions, including business and economic conditions, delinquency trends, charge-off experience
and other quality factors, the effects of which are not directly measured in the determination of
the formula and specific allowances. The evaluation of the inherent loss with respect to these
conditions is subject to a higher degree of uncertainty because they are not identified with
specific problem credits.
Management has identified certain risk factors, which could impact the degree of loss
sustained within the portfolio. These include: (a.) market risk factors, such as the effects of
economic variability on the entire portfolio, and (b.) unique portfolio risk factors that are
Page 8 of 23
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
inherent characteristics of the Companys loan portfolio. Market risk factors may
consist of changes to general economic and business conditions that
may impact the Companys loan portfolio customer base in terms of ability to repay and that may result in changes in value
of underlying collateral. Unique portfolio risk factors may include industry concentrations and
geographic concentrations or trends that may exacerbate losses resulting from economic
events which the Company may not be able to fully diversify out of its portfolio.
Management believes that the allowance for loan losses is adequate. In addition, various
regulatory agencies, as part of the examination process, periodically review the Companys
allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require the Company to recognize additions to the
allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their
examination.
Impaired Investment Securities
If a material decline in fair value below the amortized
cost basis of an investment security is judged to be
other-than-temporary, the cost basis of the investment is
written down to fair value. The amount of the write down is
included as a charge to earnings. An other-than-temporary
impairment exists for debt securities if it is probable that the
Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to
contractual terms of the security. Some factors considered for
other than temporary impairment related to a debt security
include a decrease in expected cash flows, whether an unrealized
loss is issuer specific, whether the issuer has defaulted on
scheduled interest and principal payments, whether the issuers
current financial condition hinders its ability to make future
scheduled interest and principal payments on a timely basis or
whether there was downgrade in ratings by rating agencies.
The Company has the ability and intent to hold these investments
until recovery of fair value, which may be maturity.
Stock Option Accounting
Effective January 1, 2006 the Company adopted the fair
value recognition provisions of SFAS 123R for all share-based
payments, using the modified-prospective transition method. In
accordance with the modified prospective transition method, the
Companys Consolidated Financial Statements for prior periods
have not been restated to reflect, and do not include, the
impact of SFAS 123R. Upon adoption of SFAS 123R, the Company
elected to retain its method of valuation for share-based awards
granted using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model which was
also previously used for the Companys pro forma information
required under SFAS 123. The Company will recognize compensation
expense for its awards on a straight-line basis over the
requisite service period for the entire award (straight-line
attribution method), ensuring that the amount of compensation
cost recognized at any date at least equals the portion of the
grant-date fair value of the award that is vested at that time.
During 2000 and 2004, common stockholders of the
Company approved stock option plans (the Option Plans) that
provide for granting of options to purchase up to 150,000 shares
of Class A common stock per plan. Under the Option Plans, all
officers and key employees of the Company are eligible to receive
non-qualified or incentive stock options to purchase shares of
Class A common stock. The Option Plans are administered by the
Compensation Committee of
the Board of Directors, whose members are ineligible to
participate in the Option Plans. Based on managements
recommendations, the Committee submits its recommendations to the
Board of Directors as to persons to whom options are to be
granted, the number of shares granted to each, the option price
(which may not be less than 85% of the fair market value for
non-qualified stock options, or the fair market value for
incentive stock options, of the shares on the date of grant) and
the time period over which the options are exercisable (not more
than ten years from the date of grant). There were options to
purchase an aggregate of 121,621 shares of Class A common stock
exercisable at March 31, 2007.
Page 9 of 23
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
On December 30, 2005 the Board of Directors approved the
acceleration and immediate vesting of all unvested options with
an exercise price of $31.60 or greater per share. As a
consequence, options to purchase 23,950 shares of Class A common
stock became exercisable immediately. The average of the high and
low price at which the Class A common stock traded on December
30, 2005, the date of the acceleration and vesting, was $29.28
per share. The Company estimates that, as a result of this
accelerated vesting, approximately $190,000 of 2006 non-cash
compensation expense was eliminated that would otherwise have
been recognized in the Companys earnings.
In December 2004, the FASB issued a revised Statement No.
123, (revised 2004) (SFAS 123R), Share-Based Payment. This
Statement replaces SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation, and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for
Stock Issued to Employees, and its related implementation
guidance. SFAS 123R establishes standards for the accounting for
transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments
for goods or services. SFAS 123R requires a public entity to
measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an
award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of
the award (with limited exceptions). That cost will be recognized
over the period during which an employee is required to provide
service in exchange for the award period which is usually the
vesting period. SFAS 123R was effective as of the beginning of
the first annual reporting period that begins after June 15,
2005. The Company accelerated the vesting of certain unvested
out-of-the-money stock options awarded to Bank employees
pursuant to the Option Plans so that they immediately vested as
of December 30, 2005. In connection with this acceleration the
Board of Directors approved a technical amendment to each of the
Option Plans to eliminate the possibility that the terms of any
outstanding or future stock option would require a cash
settlement on the occurrence of any circumstance outside the
control of the Company. Effective as of January 1, 2006 the
Company adopted SFAS 123R for all share based payments.
The Company decided to accelerate the vesting of certain
stock options primarily to reduce the non-cash compensation
expense that would otherwise be expected to be recorded in
conjunction with the Companys required adoption of SFAS 123R in
2006. There was no earnings impact for 2006 and the first three
months of 2007 due to the Companys adoption of SFAS 123R.

$27.22 and a weighted average remaining contractual life of 4
years. The weighted average intrinsic value of options exercised
for the three-month period ended March 31, 2007 was $1.83 per
share with an aggregate value of $2,042. The average intrinsic
value of options exercisable at March 31, 2007 had an aggregate
value of $238,293.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
The Company uses the fair value method to account for stock options. All of the Companys
stock options are vested and there were no options granted during the first three months of 2007.
Employee Benefits
The Company provides pension benefits to its employees under a
noncontributory, defined benefit plan which is funded on a current basis in
compliance with the requirements at the Employee Retirement Income Security
Act of 1974 (ERISA) and recognizes costs over the estimated employee
service period.
The Company also has a Supplemental Executive Insurance/Retirement Plan
(the Supplemental Plan) which is limited to certain officers and employees
of the Company. The Supplemental Plan is accrued on a current basis and
recognizes costs over the estimated employee service period.
Executive officers of the Company or its subsidiaries who have at least
one year of service may participate in the Supplemental Plan. The
Supplemental Plan is voluntary and participants are required to contribute
to its cost. Individual life insurance policies, which are owned by the
Company, are purchased covering the lives of each participant.

Contributions
The Company previously disclosed in its financial statements for the year
ended December 31, 2006 that it expected to contribute $1,560,000 to the
Pension Plan in 2007. As of March 31, 2007, $390,000 of the contribution had
been made. The Company expects to contribute an additional $1,170,000 by the
end of the year.
Effective December 31, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 158, Employers
Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans An
Amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R), which requires
the Company to recognize the overfunded or underfunded status of a single
employer
defined benefit pension or postretirement plan as an asset or liability on
its balance sheet and to recognize changes in the funded status in
comprehensive income in the
year in which the change occurred. However, gains or losses, prior service
costs or credits, and transition assets or obligations that have not yet
been included in net periodic benefit cost as of the end of 2006, the fiscal
year in which the Statement is initially applied are to be recognized as
components of the ending balance of accumulated other comprehensive income,
net of tax. During 2006, the Company recorded an additional $2,158,000
pension liability adjustment, net of tax, through stockholders equity, as a
result of the adoption of SFAS 158. The Company
Page 11 of 23
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
recognized $63,000, net of tax, as amortization of amounts previously
recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income. SFAS 158 also requires
the Company to measure plan assets and benefit obligations as of the date of
the Companys fiscal year end effective for fiscal years ending after
December 15, 2008.
Accounting
for Uncertainty in Income Taxes
The
Company classifies interest resulting from underpayment of income
taxes as income tax expense in the first period the interest would
begin accruing according to the provisions of the relevant tax law.
The
Company classifies penalties resulting from underpayment of income
taxes as income tax expense in the period for which the Company
claims or expects to claim an uncertain tax position or in the period
in which the Companys judgment changes regarding an uncertain
tax position.
Recent Accounting Developments
In July, 2006 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Financial Accounting Standards Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for
Uncertainty in Income Taxes (FIN 48). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for
uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprises financial
statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income
Taxes. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement
attributable for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a
tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also
provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties,
accounting in interim periods, disclosures and transitions. FIN 48 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The adoption
of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on the Companys financial
position.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157, Fair Value
Measurements, which among other things, requires enhanced disclosures about
financial instruments carried at fair value. SFAS 157 is effective for
fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. SFAS 157 establishes a
hierarchal disclosure framework associated with the level of pricing
observability utilized in measuring financial instruments at fair value. The
three broad levels defined by the SFAS 157 hierarchy are as follows:
Level I Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets
or liabilities as of the reported date. The type of financial instruments
included in Level I are highly liquid cash instruments with quoted prices
such as G-7 government, agency securities, listed equities and money market
securities, as well as listed derivative instruments.
Level II Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets,
which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date.
The nature of these financial instruments include cash instruments for which
quoted prices are available but traded less frequently, derivative
instruments whose fair value have been derived using a model where inputs to
the model are directly observable in the market, or can be derived
principally from or corroborated by observable market data, and instruments
that are fair valued using other financial instruments, the parameters of
which can be directly observed. Instruments which are generally included in
this category are corporate bonds and loans, mortgage whole loans, municipal
bonds and OTC derivatives.
Level III Instruments that have little to no pricing observability as of
the reported date. These financial instruments do not have two-way markets
and are measured using managements best estimate of fair value, where the
inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management
judgment or estimation. Instruments that are included in this category
generally include certain commercial mortgage loans, certain private equity
investments, distressed debt, non-investment grade residual interests in
securitizations, as well as certain highly structured OTC derivative
contracts.
The Company is currently evaluating the impact SFAS 157 will have upon adoption.
In February of 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standard No. 159 (SFAS 159), The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets
and Financial Liabilities, which gives entities the option to measure
eligible financial assets, and
Page 12 of 23
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
financial liabilities at fair value on an instrument by instrument basis,
that are otherwise not permitted to be accounted for at fair value under
other accounting standards. The election to use the fair value option is
available when an entity first recognizes a financial asset or financial
liability. Subsequent changes in fair value must be recorded in earnings.
This statement is effective as of the beginning of a companys first fiscal
year after November 15, 2007. Early adoption is permitted as of January 1,
2007 if elected by April 30, 2007. The Company has analyzed the early
adoption of SFAS 159 and upon review of emerging guidance, the Company will
not early adopt the standard. The Company is continuing to analyze the
impact of SFAS 159 upon adoption on January 1, 2008.

Forward Looking Statements
Except for the historical information contained herein, this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q may contain forward-looking statements within the
meaning of Section 27A of
the Securities Act of 1933 as amended and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as amended. Investors are cautioned that
forward-looking statements are
inherently uncertain. Actual performance and results of operations may
differ materially from those projected or suggested in the forward-looking
statements due to
certain risks and uncertainties, including, without limitation, (i) the fact
that the Companys success is dependent to a significant extent upon general
economic conditions in New England, (ii) the fact that the Companys
earnings depend to a great extent upon the level of net interest income (the
difference between interest income
earned on loans and investments and the interest expense paid on deposits
and other borrowings) generated by the Bank and thus the Banks results of
operations may be adversely affected by increases or decreases in interest
rates, (iii) the fact that the
banking business is highly competitive and the profitability of the Company
depends upon the Banks ability to attract loans and deposits within its
market area, where the Bank competes with a variety of traditional banking
and other institutions such as credit unions and finance companies, and (iv)
the fact that a significant portion of the Companys loan portfolio is
comprised of commercial loans, exposing the Company to the risks inherent in
loans based upon analyses of credit risk, the value of underlying
collateral, including real estate, and other more intangible factors, which
are considered in making commercial loans. Accordingly, the Companys
profitability may be negatively impacted by errors in risk analyses, and by
loan defaults, and the ability of certain borrowers to repay such loans may
be adversely affected by any downturn in general economic conditions. These
factors, as well as general economic and market conditions, may materially
and adversely affect the market price of shares of the Companys common
stock. Because of these and other factors, past financial performance
should not be considered an indicator of future performance. The
forward-looking statements contained herein represent the Companys judgment
as of
the date of this Form 10-Q, and the Company cautions readers not to place
undue reliance on such statements.

Executive Overview
|
|
Century Bancorp, Inc. (together with its bank subsidiary, unless the context otherwise requires, the
Company) is a Massachusetts state chartered bank holding company headquartered in Medford, Massachusetts.
The Company is a Massachusetts
corporation formed in 1972 and has one banking subsidiary (the Bank): Century Bank and Trust Company
formed in 1969. The Company had total assets of approximately $1.6 billion as of March 31, 2007. The Company

banking offices in 16 cities and towns in Massachusetts ranging from Braintree in the south to Beverly in
the north. The Banks customers consist primarily of small and
medium-sized businesses and retail customers in these communities and surrounding areas, as well as local
governments and institutions throughout Massachusetts. During the quarter ended June 30, 2006, the Company
closed its branch on Atlantic Avenue in Boston and transferred its customers to the nearby State Street
branch. |
|
|
|
|
|
The Companys results of operations are largely dependent on net interest
income, which is the difference between the interest earned on loans and
securities and interest paid on deposits and borrowings. The results of
operations are also affected by the level of income/fees from loans, deposits, as well as operating expenses,
the provision for loan losses, the impact of federal and state income taxes
and the relative levels of interest rates and economic activity. |
|
|
|
|
|
The Company offers a wide range of services to commercial enterprises, state
and local governments and agencies, non-profit organizations and
individuals. It emphasizes
service to small and medium-sized businesses and retail customers in its
market area. The Company makes commercial loans, real estate and
construction loans and consumer loans, and accepts savings, time, and demand
deposits. In addition, the Company offers to its corporate and institutional
customers automated lock box
collection services, cash management services and account
reconciliation services, and actively promotes the marketing of these
services to the municipal market. Also, the
Company provides full service securities brokerage services through
its division, Investment Services at Century Bank, in conjunction with
Independent Financial Marketing Group, a full service securities brokerage
business. |
|
|
|
|
|
The Company is also a provider of financial services, including cash
management, transaction processing and short term financing to
municipalities in Massachusetts and Rhode Island. The Company has deposit relationships with approximately 30%
of the 351 cities and towns in Massachusetts. |
|
|
|
|
|
Earnings for the first quarter ended March 31, 2007 were $1,004,000, or
$0.18 per share diluted, compared to net income of $1,430,000, or $0.26 per
share diluted, for the first quarter of 2006. The earnings were adversely
impacted by rising short term interest rates, an inverted yield curve and
increased deposit competition. Included in income for 2006 is the previously
announced pre-tax gain of $600 thousand from the sale of the Companys
rights to future royalty payments for a portion of its Merchant Credit Card
customer base. |
Financial Condition
|

Loans
|
|
On March 31, 2007, total loans outstanding, net of unearned discount, were $717.3
million, a decrease of 2.6% from the total on December 31, 2006. At March 31, 2007, commercial
real estate loans accounted for 42.1% and residential real estate loans, including home equity
credit lines, accounted for 31.9% of total loans. |
|
|
|
|
|
Commercial and industrial loans increased to $119.7 million at March 31,
2007 from $117.5 million on December 31, 2006. Construction loans increased
to $52.4 million at March 31, 2007 from $49.7 million on December 31, 2006. |
|
|
|
|
|
The primary reason for the decrease in loans was due in large part to an
increase in loan payoffs. |

Allowance for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses was 1.37% of total loans on March 31, 2007
compared with 1.32% on December 31, 2006. The ratio has remained relatively
stable. Net charge-offs for the three-month period ended March 31, 2007 were
$215 thousand compared with net charge-offs of $63 thousand for the same
period in 2006. Provisions to the allowance have been made due primarily to
increases in net charge-offs and increase in nonaccruing loans. At the
current time, management believes that the allowance for loan losses is
adequate.
Nonperforming Assets

held by the Bank at the dates indicated:

Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents decreased mainly as a result of decreases in
demand deposits. Demand deposits decreased mainly because of increases in
earnings credit rates.
Investments
Management continually evaluates its investment alternatives in order to
properly manage the overall balance sheet mix. The timing of purchases,
sales and reinvestments, if any, will be based on various factors including
expectation of movements in market interest rates, deposit flows and loan
demand. Notwithstanding these events, it is the intent of management to grow
the earning asset base mainly through loan originations while funding this
growth through a mix of retail deposits, FHLB advances, and retail
repurchase agreements.

Securities Available-for-Sale
The securities available-for-sale portfolio totaled $366.9 million at March
31, 2007, a decrease of 11.7% from December 31, 2006. The portfolio
decreased mainly because of a reduction in the size of the balance sheet.
The portfolio is concentrated in United States Government Sponsored
Enterprises and Mortgage-backed Securities and had an estimated weighted
average remaining life of 2.5 years. Included in U.S. Government and U.S.
Government Sponsored Enterprises is one U.S. Government security totaling $2
million.
Securities Held-to-Maturity
The securities held-to-maturity portfolio totaled $261.5 million on March
31, 2007, a decrease of 1.6% from the total on December 31, 2006. The
portfolio decreased mainly
because of a reduction in the size of the balance sheet. The portfolio is
concentrated in United States Government Sponsored Enterprises and
Mortgage-backed Securities and had an estimated weighted average remaining
life of 2.2 years.
Other Assets
Other Assets increased by $1.2 million or 2.9%. Other Assets increased
mainly because of an increase in the cash surrender value of life insurance
policies.
Deposits and Borrowed Funds
On March 31, 2007, deposits totaled $1.2 billion, representing a 6.2%
decrease in total deposits from December 31, 2006. Total deposits decreased
primarily as a result of
Page 16 of 23
Managements
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation (cont.)
decreases in time deposits, demand deposits and money market deposits,
offset somewhat by increases in savings and NOW deposits. Time deposits,
demand deposits and money market deposits decreased mainly because of
decreases in municipal
deposits. The Company competed less aggressively for these types of
deposits. Savings and NOW deposits increased mainly because the Company
competed more aggressively for these types of deposits during the first
three months of the year. Borrowed funds totaled $204.2 million compared to
$210.0 million at December 31, 2006. Borrowed funds remained relatively
stable during the quarter.
Results
of Operations
Net Interest Income
For the three-month period ended March 31, 2007, net interest income totaled
$9.2 million, a decrease of 1.3% from the comparable period in
2006. The decrease in net interest income for the
three-month period is mainly due to the current inverted yield curve
environment and increased funding costs that resulted in a decrease of 3
basis points in the net interest margin.
The net yield on average earning assets on a fully taxable equivalent basis
decreased to 2.41% for the first three months of 2007 from 2.44% during the
same period in 2006. The Company believes that the net interest margin will
continue to be challenged in this inverted yield curve environment. This is
mainly the result of deposit and borrowing pricing that has the potential to
increase at a faster rate than corresponding asset categories.

Managements Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation (cont.)
Provision for Loan Losses
For the three-month period ended March 31, 2007, the loan loss provision was
$300 thousand compared to a provision of $150 thousand for the same period
last year. The provision increased mainly because of an increase in
charge-offs and an increase in nonaccruing loans. The Companys loan loss
allowance as a percentage of total loans outstanding has remained relatively
stable at 1.37% at March 31, 2007 versus 1.32% at December 31, 2006. The
coverage ratio remained stable mainly as a result of relative stability in
the loan portfolio.
Non-Interest Income and Expense
Other operating income for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 was $2.8 million
versus $3.1 million for the same period last year. The decrease in other
operating income was mainly attributable to a pre-tax gain recognized in the
first quarter of 2006 of $600 thousand from the sale of rights to future
royalty payments for a portion of the Companys Merchant Credit Card
customer base. This was somewhat offset by service charges on deposit
accounts that increased by $270 thousand. Service charges on deposit
accounts increased mainly because of an increase in the Companys customer
base. Also, lockbox fees increased by $59 thousand and was mainly
attributable to an increase in customer volume. Brokerage fees decreased by
$24 thousand and was primarily the result of decreased transaction volume.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2007, operating expenses increased by
$137 thousand or 1.3% to $10.3 million, from the same period last year. The
increase in operating expenses for the quarter was mainly attributable to an
increase of $223 thousand in other expenses somewhat offset by decreases of
$49 thousand in occupancy expense, $35 thousand in salaries and employee
benefits and $2 thousand in equipment expense. Other expenses increased
mainly as a result of increases in marketing, supplies and consulting costs,
offset somewhat by decreases in check processing charges. Salaries and
employee benefits decreased mainly as a result a decrease in staffing offset
somewhat by an increase in salaries, pension expense and health insurance
costs. Occupancy expense decreased mainly because of an increase in rental
income. Equipment expense remained relatively stable.
Income Taxes
For the first quarter of 2007, the Companys income tax expense totaled $445
thousand on pretax income of $1.4 million for an effective tax rate of
30.7%. For last years corresponding quarter, the Companys income tax
expense totaled $709 thousand on pretax income of $2.1 million for an
effective tax rate of 33.1%. The income tax rate decreased for the current
quarter mainly as a result of an increase in non-taxable income compared to
last year.

Item 3
|
|
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure
about Market Risk |
|
|
|
|
|
Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices
and rates. The Companys market risk arises primarily from interest rate
risk inherent in its lending and deposit taking activities. To that end,
management actively monitors and manages its interest rate risk exposure.
The Companys profitability is affected by fluctuations in interest rates. A
sudden and substantial increase or decrease in interest rates may
adversely impact the Companys earnings to the extent that the
interest rates tied to specific assets and liabilities do not change at the
same speed, to the same extent, or on the same basis. The Company monitors
the impact of changes in interest rates on its net interest income using
several tools. The Companys primary objective in managing interest rate
risk is to minimize the adverse impact of changes in interest rates on the
Companys net interest income and capital, while structuring the Companys
asset-liability structure to obtain the maximum yield-cost spread on that
structure. Management believes that there have been no material changes in
the interest rate risk reported in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. The information is contained in the Form 10-K within
the Market Risk and Asset Liability Management section of Managements
Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition. |
|

|
Item 4
|
|
Controls and Procedures |
|
|
|
|
|
The Companys management, with participation of the Companys principal executive and financial
officers, has evaluated its disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered
by this quarterly report. Based on this evaluation, the Companys management, with participation
of its principal executive and financial officers, have concluded that the Companys disclosure
controls and procedures effectively ensure that information required to be disclosed in the
Companys filings and submissions with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Exchange
Act is accumulated and reported to Company management (including the principal executive officers
and the principal financial officer) as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosure and is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by
the Securities and Exchange Commission. In addition, the Company has evaluated its internal
control over financial reporting and during the first quarter of 2007 there has been no change in
its internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely
to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting. |
Part
II Other Information

Item 1
|
|
Legal proceedings At the present time, the Company is not engaged in any legal
proceedings which, if adversely determined to the Company, would have a material
adverse impact on the Companys financial condition or results of
operations. From time to time, the Company is party to routine legal
proceedings within the normal course of business. Such routine legal
proceedings, in the aggregate, are believed by management to be immaterial
to the Companys financial condition and results of operation. |

adversely effect the Companys business, financial condition and
operating results. |
