Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2002. Certain reclassifications have been made to amounts previously reported in order to conform to current period presentations. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001. NOTE 2 - COMPREHENSIVE INCOME During the first nine months of 2002 and 2001, total comprehensive income amounted to $20,032 and $19,315, respectively. The components of comprehensive income, net of tax, for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 are as follows: 2002 2001 -------- -------- Net income $ 14,572 $ 12,746 Change in other comprehensive income - deferred compensation plan (41) (59) Unrealized gains on available-for-sale securities 5,501 6,628 -------- -------- Comprehensive income $ 20,032 $ 19,315 ======== ======== Accumulated other comprehensive income, net of related tax, at September 30, 2002, December 31, 2001 and September 30, 2001 totaled $8,894, $3,434 and $6,850, respectively and was comprised of accumulated changes in unrealized market value adjustments on securities available-for-sale, net of tax and deferred supplemental income, net of tax.

Under the new rules, goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets will no longer be amortized but will be subject to annual impairment tests in accordance with the statements. Other intangible assets, such as core deposit intangibles, will continue to be amortized over their useful lives. The Company had approximately $14.6 million of goodwill on its balance sheet at December 31, 2001. In preparing for its adoption of SFAS No. 142, the Company determined its reporting units and the amounts of goodwill and intangible assets to be allocated to those reporting units. The initial impairment testing has been completed and the Company has determined that there was no impairment as of January 1, 2002. The Company is not anticipating any impairment, any reclassifications between goodwill and intangible assets or any changes in the useful lives of intangible assets. No amortization expense is being recorded on the goodwill in 2002 compared to amortization expense of $140 for the first nine months of 2001 and $187 for the year 2001. Application of the non-amortization provisions of the statement increased net income by $91 or $.01 per share in the first nine months of 2002 and is expected to increase net income by $126 or $.01 per share for the entire year. Reported net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2001 was $4,401 and $12,746. Adjusting for the amortization provisions of SFAS No. 142, net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2001 would have been $4,431 and $12,837, respectively. Basic and diluted earnings per share would have been $0.44 and $0.44 for the three months ended September 30, 2001, respectively and $1.28 and $1.27 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001, respectively. NOTE 4 - ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES The allowance for loan losses is that amount believed adequate to absorb credit losses in the loan portfolio based on management's evaluation of various factors including overall growth in the loan portfolio, an analysis of individual loans, prior and current loss experience, and current economic conditions. A provision for loan losses is charged to operations based on management's periodic evaluation of these and other pertinent factors.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. General Second Bancorp Incorporated (the "Company") is a financial holding company headquartered in Warren, Ohio. The primary subsidiary, The Second National Bank of Warren, (the "Bank") was originally established in 1880. Operating through 36 retail banking centers, we offer a wide range of commercial and consumer banking and trust services primarily to business and individual customers in various communities in a nine county area in northeastern and east-central Ohio. Among other things, our consumer banking business includes a large and growing mortgage banking function. The Company also maintains two other subsidiaries, Stouffer-Herzog Insurance Agency, Inc. ("Stouffer-Herzog") and Second Bancorp Capital Trust I. Stouffer-Herzog was acquired in the third quarter of 2002 and operates primarily in northeast Ohio selling a wide-range of personal and commercial property & casualty and life & health products. Second Bancorp Capital Trust I was established in 2001 to facilitate raising Tier I eligible capital in the form of corporation-obligated mandatorily redeemable capital securities of subsidiary trust for the primary purpose of funding our acquisition of Commerce Exchange Bank. Forward-looking statements The sections that follow contain certain forward-looking statements (as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995). These forward-looking statements may involve significant risks and uncertainties. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, actual results may differ materially from the expectations discussed in these forward-looking statements. Financial Condition At September 30, 2002, the Company had consolidated total assets of $1.82 billion, deposits of $1.18 billion and shareholders' equity of $140 million. Since September 30, 2001, total assets have increased by $216 million or 13.4%, primarily as a result of the acquisition of Commerce Exchange Corporation ("Commerce") and its subsidiary, Commerce Exchange Bank. Total assets of Commerce were $111 million. Gross loans have increased by $93 million during the past year, the same amount was acquired from Commerce. Real estate loans declined by $9 million since September 30, 2001 due to the increase in refinancing and secondary market sales activities during the past year. The increased activity levels were brought about by lower long-term interest rates. A steady increase in direct consumer lending volume has offset the decline in indirect automobile loan volumes. Indirect loans have been de-emphasized due to the lower profit margins associated with the credits. Commercial loans are also undergoing an internal shift away from fixed rate, real estate based lending to a more variable rate, cash flow based lending structure. The loan mix has moved from a 40%, 30% and 30% mix of commercial, consumer and residential real estate loans, respectively, as of September 30, 2001 to a 45%, 28%, 27% mix at the end of the most recent quarter. Approximately $12 million of loans previously classified as consumer loans were reclassified as commercial loans during the third quarter as they are revolving lines to business customers. Deposits increased by $124 million since September 30, 2001 primarily as a result of the acquisition of $87 million in deposits from Commerce. The Bank is also in the process of de-emphasizing higher cost time deposits as a funding source. Time deposits have declined by $97 million from a year ago. Savings accounts have increased by $175 million primarily as the result of the introduction of the Your Best Interest Account which is an MMDA account with attractive premium pricing. Demand deposit accounts have increased by $42 million over the same time period. The growth is evenly split between balances acquired from Commerce and internal growth. The corporation-obligated mandatorily redeemable capital securities of subsidiary trust (the "Trust Preferred Securities") used to finance the Commerce acquisition totaled $30.5 million as of September 30, 2002. 11 (Dollars in thousands, except per share data) Since June 30, 2002, total assets have increased by $104 million. Commercial lending activities have increased, especially in the western-most counties. Commercial loan balances increased by $34 million ($12 million as a result of balances transferred from the consumer loan category). Strong secondary mortgage activities have kept real estate balances at below 30% of total loans, despite the record level of loan originations. The internal shift away from both indirect automobile lending has kept internal consumer loan growth at below normal and historically sustainable levels. Due to the same reasons as noted above in the year-to-year analysis, deposits have increased by $35 million during the most recent quarter, with savings accounts, time deposits and demand deposits increasing by $15 million, $12 million and $8 million, respectively. Asset Quality. The level of non-performing loans increased significantly during the quarter and totaled $20,010 as of September 30, 2002. This represents an increase of $7,515 from the previous quarter end due primarily to the inclusion of two related credits totaling $7.3 million with lease receivables as collateral. The company that originated the leases has declared bankruptcy and has allegedly perpetrated fraud in the creation of some of the leases. The leases were supported by surety bonds from two well-capitalized insurance companies. Due in part to the nationwide scope of the issue and the alleged fraud, the insurance companies have thus far refused payment. The Company is currently litigating the matter and investigating the actual validity of the leases supporting the two loans. Due in part to the first interest in the $11 million in collateral (lease obligations) that supports loans and the contention that the insurance companies are still obligated to uphold their surety, the Company continues to maintain the loans as non-performing loans with a specific reserve assigned to the credits. As the additional investigation continues as to the validity of the individual leases, that specific reserve amount may be adjusted. Non-accrual loans have increased to $12,756 over the past year from $4,273 as of September 30, 2001 and represent not only the two credits detailed previously, but also an increase in delinquencies among smaller commercial credits due to the general weakness of the economy. Loans past due over 90 days and still accruing totaled $6,955 as of September 30, 2002, up 49% from September 30, 2001, reflecting the general economic slowdown in both the national and local economies. Approximately 46% of the loans past due over 90 days and still accruing are residential real estate loans with minimal loss expectations. The reserve for loan losses represented 1.51% of loans as of September 30, 2002. The determination of the reserve for loan losses is based on management's evaluation of the potential losses in the loan portfolio at September 30, 2002 considering, among other relevant factors, repayment status, borrowers' ability to repay, collateral and current economic conditions. The reserve was 1.45% of total loans at September 30, 2001. Capital resources. Shareholders' equity has increased by $11.4 million since December 31, 2001 due to the retained earnings of $9.2 million, an increase in accumulated other comprehensive income ("OCI") of $5.4 million and an increase in common stock of $3.5 million (due primarily to the acquisition of Stouffer-Herzog). Somewhat offsetting these increases was the addition of $6.8 million in treasury stock. The Company repurchased nearly 296,000 shares during the first nine months of 2002. The Company recently authorized an additional 500,000 shares of common stock to be repurchased. Repurchases under this authorization are expected to be completed through open market and / or private transactions at prevailing market prices and are discretionary, based upon management's periodic assessment of market conditions and financial benefit to the Company. The Company also has an annual 2% repurchase authorization which will remain in effect until amended or withdrawn by subsequent board action. 12 (Dollars in thousands, except per share data) Liquidity. Management of the Company's liquidity position is necessary to ensure that funds are available to meet the cash flow needs of depositors and borrowers as well as the operating cash needs of the Company. Funds are available from a number of sources including maturing securities, payments made on loans, the acquisition of new deposits, the sale of packaged loans, borrowing from the FHLB and overnight lines of credit of over $28 million through correspondent banks. The parent company has three major sources of funding including dividends from the Bank, $20 million in unsecured lines of credit with correspondent banks, which are renewable annually, and access to the capital markets. There were $3 million in outstanding balances against the unsecured lines of credit as of September 30, 2002. Results of Operations Quarterly Comparison The Company reported net operating income of $5,536 for the third quarter of 2002. Net income for the third quarter represented fifty-five cents ($.55) per share on a diluted basis. Return on average assets (ROA) and return on average total shareholders' equity (ROE) were 1.25% and 16.22%, respectively, for the third quarter of 2002 compared to 1.11% and 13.87% for last year's third quarter. Net interest income increased from $12,473 for the third quarter of 2001 to $13,954 for this year's third quarter. The 11.9% improvement was primarily the result of an increase in average earning assets, primarily generated through the Commerce acquisition. Average earning assets increased by 10.9% from last year to average $1,657,438 in the most recent quarter. The net interest margin remained stable from last year's third quarter at 3.49%. The efficiency ratio was slightly improved, decreasing from 57.89% for the third quarter of 2001 to 56.94% for this year's third quarter. Increased gains on the sale of loans generally offset increases in expenses, primarily driven by increased salary and benefit costs. Commercial Lending. Commercial lending activities focus primarily on providing local independent commercial and professional firms with commercial business loans and loans secured by owner-occupied real estate. We primarily make secured and unsecured commercial loans for general business purposes, including working capital, accounts receivable financing, machinery and equipment acquisition, and commercial real estate financing. These loans have both fixed and floating interest rates and typically have maturities of three to seven years. To a lesser extent, we also make construction loans and finance commercial equipment leases. Commercial loans comprised approximately 45% of our total loan portfolio at September 30, 2002, up from 40% at the end of the third quarter in 2001. The increase is primarily due to loan balances acquired via the commerce acquisition. Loan volume generated for the third quarter of 2002 totaled $58.2 million versus $45.8 million for the same period in 2001. Loan balances have actually increased by $34.5 million since June 30, 2002 due to 1) the transfer to approximately $12 million in loans previously classified as consumer loans to commercial loans and 2) the increase in new loan generation. The increase in loan generation can be attributed to increase lending activity in the newer western-most regions of the Company's market. The portfolio mix continues to shift towards more rate-sensitive and higher margin, variable rate commercial loans. Retail Lending. The Company offers a full range of retail loans to individuals, including the owners and principals of our commercial customers and a wide range of retail customers in our market area. We offer consumer loans for a variety of personal financial needs, including home equity, new and used automobiles, boat loans, credit cards and overdraft protection for checking account customers. At September 30, 2002, approximately 28% of loans were consumer loans. Of these balances, 39% were related to indirect automobile, boat and recreational vehicle lending compared to 45% as of September 30, 2001. Our indirect loans are originated through dealers in the local area. Indirect originations, which now include higher quality boat and recreational vehicle loans have increased from $6.8 million during the third quarter of 2001 to $14.8 million during the third quarter of 2002. Direct consumer lending has increased from $32.2 million for the third quarter of 2001 to $33.9 million for this year's third quarter. 13 (Dollars in thousands, except per share data) Mortgage Banking. Our mortgage department underwrites and originates a wide range of retail mortgage loan products and sells a significant volume of them primarily on a servicing retained basis. Generally, the loans sold into the secondary mortgage market make funds available for reuse in mortgage or other lending activities. The sales generate a net gain (including origination fee income and deferred origination costs), limit the interest rate risk caused by holding long-term, fixed-rate loans, and build a portfolio of serviced loans which generate a recurring stream of fee income. We originated $207 million in residential real estate loans and sold approximately $169 million of loans during the third quarter of 2002, generating a net gain of $2,306. Comparatively, we originated $156 million and sold $120 million during the third quarter of 2001, generating net gains on sale of $1,358. We service $1.12 billion in mortgage loans for others at September 30, 2002 versus $652 million as of September 30, 2001. Due to the continuation of lower mortgage interest rates in the third quarter of 2002, the valuation allowance on mortgage servicing rights associated with these serviced loans increased to a total of $3,087 as of September 30, 2002, compared to an allowance of $505 as of September 30, 2001. Included in other income during the third quarters of 2002 and 2001 were valuation allowance impairment charges of $802 and $475, respectively. Typically the impact of the changes in the valuation allowance are offset by the gains realized on new residential real estate production. The risk of negative impacts to earnings was partially reduced by the acquisition of $300 million in notional value of interest rate floors at the end of the second quarter of 2002. The floors are designed to bridge the difference between the impact of lower rates on the value of the mortgage servicing rights and the anticipated increase in gains on sale of residential real estate loans. Included in other income in 2002 was income from the changes in market values of the floors of $1,087. Trust. The trust department is a traditional provider of fiduciary services with a focus on administration of estates, trusts and qualified employee benefit plans. During the third quarter of 2002, personal trust accounts and employee benefit accounts produced approximately 77% and 23% of the total revenues of the department, respectively. The department is planning to discontinue the use of internally managed common trust funds, except for a tax-free municipal fund, during the fourth quarter of 2002. The change is not expected to have a material impact on fee income. Fee income is down 21.7% from the third quarter of 2001 due the negative impact of current market conditions on asset values. Our trust department had approximately $528 million in assets under management at September 30, 2002 as compared to $624 million at December 31, 2001. Insurance. The acquisition of Stouffer-Herzog on September 4, 2002 had a relatively minor impact on earnings for the quarter. The agency has provided insurance services to Ohio residents since 1956. Stouffer-Herzog has a diverse income base by line of business. Commission historically are derived from personal lines (42%), commercial lines (35%) and life and health lines (23%). Provision for loan losses. The methodology for the provision for loan losses includes analysis of various economic factors including loan losses and portfolio growth. The provision for loan losses was $1,573 for the third quarter of 2002 versus $988 during the same period in 2001. Total net charge-offs were $940 for the third quarter of 2002 versus $1,168 for the third quarter of 2001. Loan losses are expected to remain slightly above their historical level of .30% of gross loans for the next several quarters, primarily due to continued soft economic conditions and their impact on our commercial borrowers. Consumer charge-offs are expected to be no greater than the previous year for the fourth quarter due to the improvement in the asset quality of the consumer portfolio brought about by the de-emphasis on indirect automobile lending. 14 (Dollars in thousands, except per share data) Non-interest Income. Non-interest income (excluding security and trading gains and losses) totaled $6,329 for the third quarter of 2002 versus $4,420 for the same period last year. The improvement is primarily the result of improvement in the gain on sale of loans, which increased 73.7% to $2.421 in the third quarter of 2002 due to the increase in mortgage lending activities. The improvement in non-interest income can also be attributed to the increase in deposit service charges of 12%, resulting from an increase in core transaction accounts. Additionally, included in other income during the third quarters of 2002 and 2001 were valuation allowance impairment charges of $802 and $475, respectively. Also included in other income in the third quarter of 2002 was income from the changes in market values of the floors of $1,087. The Company had no interest rate floors during the third quarter of 2001. Non-interest Expense. Expenses for the third quarter of 2002 were $11,841, up 17.4% from the same period last year due to the additional banking centers acquired from Commerce and an increase in staff to manage the increased mortgage banking activities. Salaries and employee benefits increased by 22.2% to $6,494 from the third quarter of 2001 while occupancy expense increased by 11.8% to $1,119. Non-interest expenses increased from the linked quarter by $558, or 4.9% due to increased legal costs associated with problem credits and $124 in merger costs from the Stouffer-Herzog acquisition. Year-to-date Comparison The Company reported net operating income of $14,572 for the first nine months of 2002. Net income for the first nine months represented ninety cents ($1.45) per share on a diluted basis. Return on average assets (ROA) and return on average total shareholders' equity (ROE) were 1.12% and 14.59%, respectively, for the first nine months of 2002 compared to 1.09% and 13.97% for last year's first nine months. Net interest income increased from $36,687 for the first nine months of 2001 to $42,514 for this year's first nine months. The 15.9% improvement was the result of an improved net interest margin, which increased to 3.63% for the first nine months 2002 from 3.47% from the first nine months of 2001 as well as an 9.69% increase in average earning assets, primarily generated through the Commerce acquisition. The efficiency ratio was slightly increased, from 58.20% for the first nine months of 2001 to 58.59% for this year's first nine months. The increase in valuation adjustments for mortgage servicing rights was the primary reason for the increase. Commercial Lending. Loan volume generated for the first nine months of 2002 totaled $151 million versus $127 million for the same period in 2001. The portfolio mix continues to shift towards more rate-sensitive and higher margin, variable rate commercial loans. Retail Lending. Indirect originations have decreased from $48 million during the first nine months of 2001 to $42 million during the first nine months of 2002. Recently, the indirect volume has increased with the commencement of indirect boat and recreational vehicle lending. Conversely, direct consumer lending has increased by 23% from $90 million for the first nine months of 2001 to $110 million for this year's first nine months. Mortgage Banking. We originated $557 million in residential real estate loans and sold approximately $505 million of loans during the first nine months of 2002, generating a net gain of $5,166. Comparatively, we originated $357 million and sold $295 million during the first nine months of 2001, generating net gains of $2,967. The Company continues to diversify and expand its origination sources for real estate mortgages utilizing correspondents, originators and banking center staff. 15 (Dollars in thousands, except per share data) Trust. During the first nine months of 2002, personal trust accounts and employee benefit accounts produced approximately 73% and 27% of the total revenues of $2,078 of the department, respectively. Fee income is down 8.3% from the first nine months of 2001 due the negative impact of current market conditions on asset values Provision for loan losses. The provision for loan losses was $3,809 for the first nine months of 2002 versus $3,091 during the same period in 2001. Total net charge-offs were $3,061 for the first nine months of 2002 versus $2,879 for the same period in 2001. The 6% increase is due to generally weaker economic conditions impacting the Company's commercial borrowers ability to repay. Non-interest Income. Non-interest income (excluding security gains and losses and trading activity) totaled $15,539 for the first nine months of 2002 versus $13,022 for the same period last year. This improvement of 19.3% is primarily attributable to a 9.2% improvement in service charges on deposit accounts (due to an increase in core transaction accounts) and a 72.8% increase in the gain on sale of loans (due to increase residential real estate loan sales associated with the lower interest rate environment). Non-interest Expense. Expenses for the first nine months of 2002 were $34,921, up 16.6% from the same period last year due to 1) the impact on personnel and occupancy costs from the additional banking centers acquired from Commerce, 2) an increase in staff to manage the increased mortgage banking activities, 3) a $141 write-down in other real estate owned property and 4) $124 in merger costs associated with the acquisition of Stouffer-Herzog. 16 (Dollars in thousands, except per share data) Item 3. Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosure About Market Risk Forward-looking statements The section that follows contains certain forward-looking statements (as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995). These forward-looking statements may involve significant risks and uncertainties. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, actual results may differ materially from the expectations discussed in these forward-looking statements. Market Risk Management Market risk is the risk of economic loss from adverse changes in the fair value of financial instruments due to changes in (a) interest rates, (b) foreign exchange rates, or (c) other factors that relate to market volatility of the rate, index, or price underlying the financial instrument. The Company's market risk is composed primarily of interest rate risk. The Company's Asset/Liability Committee ("ALCO") is responsible for reviewing the interest rate sensitivity position of the Company and establishing policies to monitor and limit the exposure to interest rate risk. Since nearly the Company's entire interest rate risk exposure relates to the financial instrument activity of the Bank, the Bank's Board of Directors review the policies and guidelines established by ALCO. The primary objective of asset/liability management is to provide an optimum and stable net interest margin, after-tax return on assets and return on equity capital, as well as adequate liquidity and capital. Interest rate risk is monitored through the use of two complementary measures: dynamic gap analysis and earnings simulation models. While each of the measurement techniques has limitations, taken together they represent a reasonably comprehensive tool for measuring the magnitude of interest rate risk inherent in the Company. The earnings simulation model forecasts earnings for a one-year horizon frame under a variety of interest rate scenarios; including interest rate shocks, stepped rates and yield curve shifts. Management evaluates the impact of the various rate simulations against earnings in a stable interest rate environment. The most recent model projects net interest income would increase by 2.9% if interest rates would immediately rise by 200 basis points. It projects a decrease in net interest income of 1.4% if interest rates would immediately fall by 175 basis points. Management believes this reflects an acceptable level of risk from interest rate movements based on the current level of interest rates. The earnings simulation model includes assumptions about how the various components of the balance sheet and rate structure are likely to react through time in different interest rate environments. These assumptions are derived from historical analysis and management's outlook. Management expects interest rates to have a neutral bias for the remainder of 2002. Management is in the process of shifting the processing of the simulation modeling from in-house to a third party provider. Interest rate sensitivity is managed through the use of security portfolio management techniques, the use of fixed rate long-term borrowings from the FHLB, the establishment of rate and term structures for time deposits and loans and the sale of long-term fixed rate mortgages through the secondary mortgage market. The Company also may use interest rate swaps, caps and floors to manage interest rate risk. 17 Item 4. Controls and Procedures As of September 30, 2002, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures, in accordance with Rules 13a-14 and 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based on that evaluation, the Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2002.
