Note C:    Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.

STOCK OPTION ACCOUNTING

 

The Company accounts for stock options under the intrinsic value method of recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”, and related interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in net income, as all options granted under those plans had an exercise price equal or exceeding the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share as if the company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to stock-based employee compensation.

Part I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

Forward-Looking Statements. This management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations and other portions of this report include forward-looking statements such as: statements of the Company’s goals, intentions, and expectations; estimates of risks and of future costs and benefits; assessments of loan quality, and probable loan losses, liquidity, and interest risk; and statements of the Company’s ability to achieve financial and other goals. These forward-looking statements are subject to significant uncertainties because they are based upon: the amount and timing of future changes in interest rates, market behaviors, and other economic conditions; future laws and regulations; and a variety of other matters. Because of these uncertainties, the actual future results may be materially different from the results indicated by these forward-looking statements. In addition, the Company’s past growth and performance do not necessarily indicate its future results.

 

Harbor Bankshares Corporations earnings for the second quarter of 2005 totaled $538 thousand, an increase of $132 thousand or 32.5 percent when compared to the second quarter of 2004. Net interest income increased by $227 thousand or 8.9 percent. Non-interest income increased by $71 thousand or 18.9 percent and non-interest expenses decreased by $1 thousand. The provisions for loan losses increased by $30 thousand or 33.3 percent.

 

Year to date earnings as of June 30, 2005 were $832 thousand, reflecting an increase of $71 thousand or 9.3 percent when compared to the first six months of 2004. The annualized return on average assets (ROAA) and average stockholders equity (ROAE) were .71 percent and 10.3 percent respectively, compared to .72 percent and 10.0 percent achieved during the first six months of 2004.

 

For the first six months of 2005, net interest income increased by $437 thousand or 8.7 percent. Interest and fees on loans increased by $1.2 million or 22.4 percent as a result of the growth in the portfolio and interest rate increases. Investment income decreased by $181 thousand or 29.7 percent. The decrease in the investment income reflects the maturity of securities, which were not re-invested in order to fund the increased loan demand. Interest expense increased by $574 thousand or 55.0 percent. Interest on time deposits increased by $201 thousand or 33.8 percent. Interest expense on saving accounts increased by $299 thousand or 106.8 percent. Interest on interest bearing transaction accounts increased by $6 thousand or 28.6 percent. Interest bearing transaction accounts and time deposits increased by $4.8 million or 21.0 percent and $3.3 million or 5.7 percent respectively when compared to December 31, 2004. These increases, combined with higher rates were the main reason for the overall increase in interest expense increase on deposits. The interest expense on borrowed funds was $13 thousand. The interest expense for the junior subordinated floating rate debentures increased by $55 thousand or 37.1 percent due to higher interest rates.

 

As of June 30, 2005, the provision for loan losses was $240 thousand compared to $180 thousand for the same period of 2004. The increase reflects management’s decision to increase the provision as a result of the loan growth. Charge-offs totaled $34 thousand reflecting a decrease of $243 thousand when compared to the $277 thousand charged-off during the same period for 2004. Recoveries for the period were $72 thousand, compared to $148 thousand recovered during for the first six months of 2004.

 

Future provisions for loan losses will continue to be based upon our assessment of the overall loan portfolio and its underlying collateral, the mix of loans within the portfolio, delinquency trends, economic conditions, current and prospective trends in real estate values, and other relevant factors under our allowance methodology.

 

Our allowance for loan loss methodology is a loan classification-based system. We base the required allowance on a percentage of the loan balance for each type of loan classification level. Allowance percentages are based on each individual lending program, its loss history and underwriting characteristics including loan volume, credit score, debt coverage, collateral, and capacity to service debt.

 

This analysis is used to validate the loan loss reserve matrix as well as assist in establishing overall lending direction. In Management’s opinion, the allowance for loan losses as of June 30, 2005 is adequate. There
