NOTE 4 -RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In April, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted a new rule that amends the compliance dates for Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (FAS No. 123R). The Statement requires that compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial statements and that this cost be measured based on the fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. FAS No. 123 (Revised 2004) covers a wide range of share-based compensation arrangements including share options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights, and employee share purchase plans. The Company will adopt FAS No. 123 (Revised 2004) on January 1, 2006 and will not have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

 

In December 2004, FASB issued FAS No. 153, “Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets - An Amendment of APB Opinion No. 29”. The guidance in APB Opinion No. 29, “Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions”, is based on the principle that exchanges of nonmonetary assets should be measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged. The guidance in that Opinion, however, included certain exceptions to that principle. FAS No. 153 amends Opinion No. 29 to eliminate the exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance. A nonmonetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. The provisions of FAS No. 153 are effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. Early application is permitted and companies must apply the standard prospectively. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 contains safe harbor provisions regarding forward-looking statements. When used in this discussion, the words “believes”, “anticipates”, “contemplates”, “expects”, and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Those risks and uncertainties include changes in interest rates, risks associated with the ability to control costs and expenses, and general economic conditions. Killbuck Bancshares, Inc. undertakes no obligation to publicly release the results of any revisions to those forward-looking statements, which may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

 

The Company conducts no significant business or operations of its own other than holding all of the outstanding stock of the Killbuck Savings Bank Company. As a result, references to the Company generally refer to the Bank unless the context indicates otherwise.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

The Company’s accounting policies are integral to understanding the results reported. The accounting policies are described in detail in Note 1 of the consolidated financial statements filed with the Commission as part of the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2004. Our most complex accounting policies require management’s judgment to ascertain the valuation of assets, liabilities, commitments and contingencies. We have established detailed policies and control procedures that are intended to ensure valuation methods are well controlled and applied consistently from period to period. In addition, the policies and procedures are intended to ensure that the process for changing methodologies occurs in an appropriate manner. The following is a brief description of our current accounting policies involving significant management valuation judgments.

 

Allowance for Loan Losses - Arriving at an appropriate level of allowance for loan losses involves a high degree of judgment. The Company’s allowance for loan losses provides for probable losses based upon evaluations of known and inherent risks in the loan portfolio.

 

Management uses historical information to assess the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses as well as the prevailing business environment as it is affected by changing economic conditions and various external factors, which may impact the portfolio in ways currently unforeseen. The allowance is increased by provisions for loan losses and by recoveries of loans previously charged-off and reduced by loans charged-off. For a full discussion of the Company’s methodology of assessing the adequacy of the reserve for loan losses, refer to Note 1 of the consolidated financial statements filed with the Commission as part of the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2004.

 

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets - As discussed in Note 7 of the consolidated financial statements, filed with the Commission as part of the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2004, the Company must assess goodwill and other intangible assets each year for impairment. This assessment involves estimating cash flows for future periods. If the future cash flows were less than the recorded goodwill and other intangible assets balances, we would be required to take a charge against earnings to write down the assets to the lower value.

 

Deferred Tax Assets - We use an estimate of future earnings to support our position that the benefit of our deferred tax assets will be realized. If future income should prove non-existent or less than the amount of the deferred tax assets within the tax years to which they may be applied, the asset may not be realized and our net income will be reduced. Our deferred tax assets are described further in Note 14 of the consolidated financial statements filed with the Commission as part of the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2004.

Financial Condition

 

Total assets at March 31, 2005 were $287,847,000 compared to $293,867,000 at December 31, 2004.

 

Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $6,705,000 or 31.0% from December 31, 2004, to March 31, 2005, with federal funds sold decreasing $2,600,000. The decrease was used to fund the decrease in the Bank’s total deposits.

 

Investment securities available for sale decreased by $257,000 or 2.6% from December 31, 2004, due to net purchases, maturities, calls, and repayments. Investments held to maturity increased $28,000 or .08% due to net purchases, maturities, calls and repayments.

 

Net loans decreased by $29,000 or .01% from December 31, 2004, to March 31, 2005. A decrease of $3,040,000 occurred in the real estate loan category, which is attributable primarily to construction, residential, and commercial lending activity; which includes sales to Freddie Mac in the secondary market, payoffs, and refinancings. Commercial and other loan balances increased by $3,052,000 due to seasonal changes and inventory growth while consumer loan balances decreased by $41,000.

 

Total deposits at March 31, 2005 were $240,544,000 compared to $247,349,000 at December 31, 2004. Time deposits decreased $199,000, demand accounts decreased $7,396,000, and money market and savings accounts increased $790,000. Management attributes these changes to maturing time deposits and the volatility of interest rates and consumer expectations of rising rates. Management believes the demand accounts decreases are attributable to several different reasons including normal fluctuations due to customer usage, the business accounts used funds to build up seasonal inventories, the demand deposits at December 31, 2004 had additional funds on deposit due to the holiday period, and the disintermediation into other financial markets.

 

Federal Home Loan Bank advances decreased $144,000 due to scheduled repayments and short-term borrowings increased $205,000 at March 31, 2005 from December 31, 2004.

 

Shareholders’ Equity increased by $689,000 or 2.0%, which was mainly due to earnings of $845,000 for the first three months of 2005 decreased by a $52,000 unrealized loss on securities included in other comprehensive income and decreased by the purchase of Treasury stock for $104,000. Treasury stock purchases are monitored against the Company’s Strategic Plan and the goals set forth in the plan. The Treasury stock purchases have been within the Strategic Plan’s guidelines for the first three months of 2005. Management monitors risk-based capital and leveraged capital ratios in order to assess compliance of the regulatory guidelines. At March 31, 2005, the total capital ratio was 17.29%; the Tier I capital ratio was 16.15%, and the leverage ratio was 12.16%, compared to regulatory capital requirements of 8.00%, 4.00% and 4.00% respectively. These ratios are well in excess of regulatory capital requirements.

Net income for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005, was $845,000 an increase of $72,000 or 9.3% from the $773,000 reported at March 31, 2004.

 

Total interest income of approximately $3,768,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005, compares to $3,386,000 for the same period in 2004, an increase of $382,000 or 11.3%. The increase in total interest income is attributed to an increase in interest and fees on loans. Interest and fees on loans increased $454,000 or 16.4% for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005 compared to the same period for 2004. The increase in interest and fees on loans is due to an increase in the volume of the loan portfolio. Average loan balances were $217,104,000 compared to $204,690,000 and the yield was 5.94% compared to 5.41% for this three-month period of 2005 and 2004 respectively. The decrease in interest on investment securities of $89,000 was due to a decrease in the average balances outstanding of $47,783,000 for 2005 compared to $57,766,000 for 2004 and the yield was 4.31% compared to 4.18% for this three-month period of 2005 and 204 respectively. See “Average Balance Sheet” for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2005 and 2004.

 

Total interest expense of $865,000 for the three-month period ending March 31, 2005, represents an increase of $53,000 from the $812,000 reported for the same three-month period in 2004. The increase in interest expense on deposits is due mainly to an increase in the cost of the Time deposits. The cost of Time deposits was 2.5% compared to 2.3% for this three-month period of 2005 and 2004 respectively. Average interest bearing deposits were $196,829,000 for this three-month period of 2005 compared to $201,024,000 for the same three months of 2004. The cost of interest bearing deposits was 1.6% compared to 1.5% for this three-month period of 2005 and 2004 respectively. See “Average Balance Sheet” for the three-month periods ended March 30, 2005 and 2004.

 

Net interest income of $2,903,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2005, compares to $2,574,000 for the same three-month period in 2004, an increase of $329,000 or 12.8%.

 

Total non interest income for the three month period ended March 31, 2005 increased approximately $66,000 or 27.0% to $311,000 from $245,000 for the same three month period in 2004. Gains on sale of loans decreased $7,000 due to decreased activity caused by rising fixed loan rates, other income increased $69,000 due to an increase of $28,000 in miscellaneous income, which includes $14,000 in additional income from changing our Check Vendor, a $5,000 increase in the fees from the alternative investment program, and a $36,000 increase due to the December 2004 purchase of $3,000,000 of Bank-Owned Life Insurance (BOLI). The Company purchased life insurance policies on certain key employees. BOLI is recorded at its cash surrender value or the amount that can be realized.

 

Total non interest expense of $2,045,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2005, compares to $1,746,000 for the same three-month period in 2004. This represents an increase of $299,000 or 17.1%. Of the $299,000 approximately $108,000 was attributable to normal recurring employee cost increases for annual salary increases, staff additions and employee benefits, and approximately $137,000 was due to the timing of the payroll periods. In 2004, six payroll periods elapsed in the time period ending March 31st; however, in 2005, seven payroll periods elapsed in the same time period ending March 31st. Approximately $35,000 of the $299,000 increase was attributable to Audit expenses, of which, $30,000 is directly related to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act Section 404 Internal Controls certification work. Of the $299,000 increase in total other expense approximately $14,000 is attributable to maintenance contracts. In the time period ending March 2004, a one-time rebate was received on a maintenance contract; therefore, in the time period ending March 2005, the maintenance expenses increased by approximately $14,000.

Liquidity

 

Management monitors projected liquidity needs and determines the level desirable based in part on the Company’s commitments to make loans and management’s assessment of the Company’s ability to generate funds.

 

The primary sources of funds are deposits, repayment of loans, maturities of investments, funds provided from operations and advances from the FHLB of Cincinnati. While scheduled repayments of loans and maturities of investment securities are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and loan repayments are greatly influenced by the general level of interest rates, economic conditions and competition. The Company uses its sources of funds to fund existing and future loan commitments, to fund maturing time deposits and demand deposit withdrawals, to invest in other interest-earning assets, to maintain liquidity, and to meet operating expenses.

 

Cash and amounts due from depository institutions and federal funds sold totaled $14,958,000 at March 31, 2005. These assets provide the primary source of liquidity for the Company. In addition, management has designated a portion of the investment portfolio, $9,497,000 as available for sale and has an available unused line of credit of $31,410,000 with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati to provide additional sources of liquidity at March 31, 2005. As of March 31, 2005, the Company had commitments to fund loans of approximately $3,162,000 and unused lines of credit totaling $28,523,000.

 

Cash was provided during the three month period ended March 31, 2005, mainly from operating activities of $.5 million, the maturities and repayments of investment securities of $1.3 million, and short-term borrowings of $.2 million. Cash was used during the three month period ended March 31, 2005, mainly to fund a net increase in loans of $46,000, for the purchase of investment securities of $1.2 million, for the purchase of Land and equipment $.4 million, and net decrease in deposits of $6.8 million. In addition $.2 million was also used to reduce Federal Home Loan Bank advances during the first three months of 2005 and $.1 million was used to purchase Treasury Stock. Cash and cash equivalents totaled $15.0 million at March 31, 2005, a decrease of $6.7 million from $21.7 million at December 31, 2004.

 

Management is not aware of any conditions, including any regulatory recommendations or requirements, which would adversely affect its liquidity or ability to meet its funding needs in the normal course of business.

Risk Elements

 

The table below presents information concerning nonperforming assets including nonaccrual loans, renegotiated loans, loans 90 days or more past due, other real estate loans and repossessed assets at March 31, 2005, and December 31, 2004. A loan is classified as nonaccrual when, in the opinion of management, there are doubts about collectibility of interest and principal. At the time the accrual of interest is discontinued, future income is recognized only when cash is received. Renegotiated loans are those loans which terms have been renegotiated to provide a reduction or deferral of principal or interest as of result of the deterioration of the borrower.

Management monitors impaired loans on a continual basis. As of March 2005, impaired loans had no material effect on the Company’s financial position or results from operations.

 

The allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2005, totaled $2,444,000 or 1.13% of total loans as compared to $2,646,000 or 1.22% at December 31, 2004. Provisions for loan losses were $75,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and $90,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2004.

 

The level of funding for the provision is a reflection of the overall loan portfolio. Nonperforming loans consist of approximately $865,000 in commercial real estate, $51,000 in one to four family residential mortgages, $17,000 in commercial and other, and $28,000 in consumer loans. The collateral requirements on such loans reduce the risk of potential losses to an acceptable level in management’s opinion.

 

Management performs a quarterly evaluation of the allowance for loan losses. The evaluation incorporates internal loan review, actual historical losses, as well as any negative economic trends in the local market. The evaluation is presented to and approved by the Board of Directors. Although the Company maintains its allowance for loan losses at a level that it considers to be adequate to provide for the inherent risk of loss in its portfolio, there can be no assurance that future losses will not exceed estimated amounts or that additional provisions for loan losses will not be required in future periods.

 

An auction was held in March 2005 for the commercial real estate and equipment loan which became delinquent in the third quarter of 2004. The equipment was sold; however, the real estate was purchased by the Bank. An additional charge was made to the allowance for loan loss for approximately $200,000. The real estate will be transferred to the Bank’s possession and will be categorized as Other Real Estate Owned pending sale to a prospective buyer which Management anticipates will be finalized by the end of the second quarter 2005.

Rate/Volume Analysis

 

The table below sets forth certain information regarding changes in interest income and interest expense of the Company for the periods indicated. For each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, information is provided on changes attributable to (i) changes in volume (changes in average volume multiplied by old rate) and (ii) changes in rates (changes in rate multiplied by old average volume). Changes, which are not solely attributable to rate, or volume are allocated to changes in rate due to rate sensitivity of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities (dollars in thousands).

Item 3 – QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES

ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

Market risk for the Company is comprised primarily from interest rate risk exposure and liquidity risk. Since virtually all of the interest-earning assets and paying liabilities are at the Bank, virtually all of the interest rate risk and liquidity risk lies at the Bank level. The Bank is not subject to any trading risk. In addition, the Bank does not participate in hedging transactions such as interest rate swaps and caps. Changes in interest rates will impact both income and expense recorded and also the market values of long-term interest-earnings assets. Interest rate risk and liquidity risk managements is performed at the Bank level. Although the Bank has a diversified loan portfolio, loans outstanding to individuals and businesses are dependent upon the local economic conditions in the immediate trade area.

 

One of the principal functions of the Company’s asset/liability management program is to monitor the level to which the balance sheet is subject to interest rate risk. The goal of the asset/liability program is to manage the relationship between interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities, thereby minimizing the fluctuations in the net interest margin, which achieves consistent growth of net interest income during periods of changing interest rates.

 

Interest rate sensitivity is the result of differences in the amounts and repricing dates of a bank’s rate sensitive assets and rate sensitive liabilities. These differences, or interest rate repricing “gap” provide an indication of the extent that the Company’s net interest income is affected by future changes in interest rates. During a period of rising interest rates, a positive gap, a position of more rate sensitive assets than rate sensitive liabilities, is desired. During a falling interest rate environment, a negative gap is desired, that is, a position in which rate sensitive liabilities exceed rate sensitive assets.

 

At March 31, 2005, the Company had a cumulative positive gap of $113.8 million or 39.09% at the one-year horizon. The gap analysis indicates that if interest rates were to rise 200 basis points (2.0%), the Company’s net interest income would improve at the one-year horizon because the Company’s rate sensitive assets would reprice faster than rate sensitive liabilities. Conversely, if rates were to fall 200 basis points, the Company’s net interest income would decline.

 

Management also manages interest rate risk with the use of simulation modeling which measures the sensitivity of future net interest income as a result of changes in interest rates. The analysis is based on repricing opportunities for variable rate assets and liabilities and upon contractual maturities of fixed rate instruments.

 

The simulation also calculates net interest income based upon rate increases or decrease of + or – 200 basis points (or 2.00%) in 100 basis point (or 1.00%) increments. The analysis reprices the balance sheet and forecasts future cash flows over a one-year horizon at the net interest rate levels. The cash flows are then totaled to calculate net interest income. Assumptions are made for loan and investment pre-payment speeds and are incorporated into the simulation as well. Loan and investment pre-payment speeds will increase as interest rates decrease and slow as interest rates rise. The current analysis indicates that, given a 200 basis point overnight decrease in interest rates, the Company would experience a potential $876,000 or 22.4% decline in net interest income. If rates were to increase 200 basis points, the analysis indicates that the Company’s net interest income would increase $885,000 or 22.6%. It is important to note, however, that this exercise would be a worst-case scenario. It would be more likely to have incremental changes in interest rates, rather than a single significant increase or decrease.

 

When management believes interest rate movements will occur, it can restructure the balance sheet and thereby the ratio of rate sensitive assets to rate sensitive liabilities which in turn will effect the net interest income. It is important to note; however, that in gap analysis and simulation modeling not all assets and liabilities with similar maturities and repricing opportunities will reprice at the same time or to the same degree and therefore, could effect forecasted results.

Table of Contents

Much of the Bank’s deposits have the ability to reprice immediately, however, deposit rates are not tied to an external index. As a result, although changing market interest rates impact repricing, the Bank retains much of the control over repricing by determining itself the extent and timing of repricing deposit products. In addition, the Bank maintains a portion of its investment portfolio as available for sale securities and also has a significant variable rate loan portfolio, which is used to offset rate sensitive liabilities.

 

Changes in market interest rates can also affect the Bank’s liquidity position through the impact rate change may have on the market value of the available for sale portion of the investment portfolio. Increase in market rates can adversely impact the market values and therefore, make it more difficult for the Bank to sell available for sale securities needed for general liquidity purposes without incurring a loss on the sale. This issue is addressed by the Bank with the use of borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) and the selling of fixed rate mortgages as a source of liquidity to the Bank.

 

The Company’s liquidity plan allows for the use of long-term advances or short-term lines of credit with the FHLB as a source of funds. Borrowing from FHLB not only provides a source of liquidity for the Company, but also serves as a tool to reduce interest risk as well. The Company may structure borrowings from FHLB to match those of customers’ credit requests, and therefore, lock in interest rate spreads over the lives of the loans.

 

In addition to borrowing from the FHLB as a source for liquidity, the Company also participates in the secondary mortgage market. Specifically, the Company sells fixed rate, residential real estate mortgages to “Freddie Mac”. The sales to Freddie Mac not only provide an opportunity for the Bank to remain competitive in the market place, by allowing it to offer a fixed rate mortgage product, but also provide an additional source of liquidity and an additional tool for management to limit interest rate risk exposure. The Bank continues to service all loans sold to Freddie Mac.

Item 4 – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

The Company has carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer and Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-14. Based upon that evaluation, the President and Chief Executive Officer and Vice President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective, as of the end of the period covered by this report, in timely alerting them to material information relating to the Company (including its consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in the Company’s periodic SEC filings.

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are the control and other procedures of the Company that are designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in its reports or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchanges Commission’s rules and forms.

 

There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2005 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
