SUPERVISION AND REGULATION

General

          FNB Bancorp. The common stock of FNB Bancorp is subject to the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the qualification requirements of the California Corporate Securities Law of 1968, as amended. FNB Bancorp has registered its common stock under Section 12 (g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company is also subject to the periodic reporting requirements of Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which include, but are not limited to, annual, quarterly and other current reports required to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

          FNB Bancorp is a bank holding company within the meaning of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “Bank Holding Company Act”), and is registered as such with, and subject to the supervision of, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Board of Governors”). FNB Bancorp is required to obtain the approval of the Board of Governors before it may acquire all or substantially all of the assets of any bank, or ownership or control of the voting shares of any bank if, after giving effect to such acquisition of shares, FNB Bancorp would own or control more than 5% of the voting shares of such bank. The Bank Holding Company Act prohibits FNB Bancorp from acquiring any voting shares of, or interest in, all or substantially all of the assets of, a bank located outside the State of California unless such an acquisition is specifically authorized by the laws of the state in which such bank is located. Any such interstate acquisition is also subject to the provisions of the Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act of 1994.

          FNB Bancorp, and any subsidiary which it may acquire or organize, are deemed to be “affiliates” of the Bank within the meaning of that term as defined in the Federal Reserve Act. This means, for example, that there are limitations (a) on loans by First National Bank to its affiliates, and (b) on investments by First National Bank in affiliates’ stock as collateral for loans to any borrower. FNB Bancorp and First National Bank are also subject to certain restrictions with respect to engaging in the underwriting, public sale and distribution of securities.

          In addition, regulations of the Board of Governors under the Federal Reserve Act require that reserves be maintained by First National Bank in conjunction with any liability of FNB Bancorp under any obligation (promissory note, acknowledgment of advance, banker’s acceptance or similar obligation) with a weighted average maturity of less than seven (7) years to the extent that the proceeds of such obligations are used for the purpose of supplying funds to First National Bank for use in its banking business, or to maintain the availability of such funds.

          First National Bank of Northern California. As a national banking association licensed under the national banking laws of the United States, First National Bank is regularly examined by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and is subject to supervision and regulation by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Board of Governors, and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. This supervision and regulation includes comprehensive reviews of all major aspects of First National Bank’s business and condition, including its capital ratios, allowance for possible loan losses and other factors. However, no inference should be drawn that such authorities have approved any such factors. First National Bank is required to file reports with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. First National Bank’s deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to the applicable legal limits.

Capital Standards.

          The Board of Governors, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency have adopted risk-based guidelines for evaluating the capital adequacy of bank holding companies and banks. The guidelines are designed to make capital requirements sensitive to differences in risk profiles among banking organizations, to take into account off-balance sheet exposures and to aid in making the definition of bank capital uniform internationally. Under the guidelines, First National Bank is required to maintain (and FNB Bancorp and First National Bank will be required to maintain) capital equal to at least 8.0% of its assets and commitments to extend credit, weighted by risk, of which at least 4.0% must consist primarily of common equity (including retained earnings) and the remainder may consist of subordinated debt, cumulative preferred stock, or a limited amount of loan loss reserves.

          Assets, commitments to extend credit, and off-balance sheet items are categorized according to risk and certain assets considered to present less risk than others permit maintenance of capital at less than the 8% ratio. For example, most home mortgage loans are placed in a 50% risk category and therefore require maintenance of capital equal to 4% of those loans, while commercial loans are placed in a 100% risk category and therefore require maintenance of capital equal to 8% of those loans.

          Under the risk-based capital guidelines, assets reported on an institution’s balance sheet and certain off-balance sheet items are assigned to risk categories, each of which has an assigned risk weight. Capital ratios are calculated by dividing the institution’s qualifying capital by its period-end risk-weighted assets. The guidelines establish two categories of qualifying capital: Tier 1 capital (defined to include common shareholders’ equity and noncumulative perpetual preferred stock) and Tier 2 capital which includes, among other items, limited life (and in the case of banks, cumulative) preferred stock, mandatory convertible securities, subordinated debt and a limited amount of reserve for credit losses. Tier 2 capital may also include up to 45% of the pretax unrealized gains on certain available-for-sale equity securities having readily determinable fair values (i.e. the excess, if any, of fair market value over the book value or historical cost of the investment security). The federal regulatory agencies reserve the right to exclude all or a portion of the unrealized gains upon a determination that the equity securities are not prudently valued. Unrealized gains and losses on other types of assets, such as bank premises and available-for-sale debt securities, are not included in Tier 2 capital, but may be taken into account in the evaluation of overall capital adequacy and net unrealized losses on available-for-sale equity securities will continue to be deducted from Tier 1 capital as a cushion against risk. Each institution is required to maintain a minimum risk-based capital ratio (including Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital) of 8%, of which at least half must be Tier 1 capital.

7


          A leverage capital standard was adopted as a supplement to the risk-weighted capital guidelines. Under the leverage capital standard, an institution is required to maintain a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to the sum of its quarterly average total assets and quarterly average reserve for loan losses, less intangibles not included in Tier 1 capital. Period-end assets may be used in place of quarterly average total assets on a case-by-case basis. The Board of Governors and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation have also adopted a minimum leverage ratio for bank holding companies as a supplement to the risk-weighted capital guidelines. The leverage ratio establishes a minimum Tier 1 ratio of 3% (Tier 1 capital to total assets) for the highest rated bank holding companies or those that have implemented the risk-based capital market risk measure. All other bank holding companies must maintain a minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio of 4% with higher leverage capital ratios required for bank holding companies that have significant financial and/or operational weakness, a high risk profile, or are undergoing or anticipating rapid growth.

          At December 31, 2007, The Company was in compliance with the risk-weighted capital and leverage ratios. See “Capital” under Item 7 below.

Prompt Corrective Action

          The Board of Governors, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, and Office of the Comptroller of the Currency have adopted regulations implementing a system of prompt corrective action pursuant to Section 38 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Section 131 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (“FDICIA”). The regulations establish five capital categories with the following characteristics:

(1) “Well capitalized” – consisting of institutions with a total risk-based capital ratio of 10% or greater, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 6% or greater and a leverage ratio of 5% or greater, and the institution is not subject to an order, written agreement, capital directive or prompt corrective action directive;

(2) “Adequately capitalized” – consisting of institutions with a total risk-based capital ratio of 8% or greater, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 4% or greater and a leverage ratio of 4% or greater, and the institution does not meet the definition of a “well capitalized” institution;

(3) “Undercapitalized” – consisting of institutions with a total risk-based capital ratio less than 8%, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of les than 4%, or a leverage ratio of less than 4%;

(4) “Significantly undercapitalized” – consisting of institutions with a total risk-based capital ratio of less than 6%, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of less than 3%, or a leverage ratio of less than 3%;

8


(5) “Critically undercapitalized” – consisting of an institution with a ratio of tangible equity to total assets that is equal to or less than 2%.

          The regulations established procedures for classification of financial institutions within the capital categories, filing and reviewing capital restoration plans required under the regulations and procedures for issuance of directives by the appropriate regulatory agency, among other matters. The regulations impose restrictions upon all institutions to refrain from certain actions which would cause an institution to be classified within any one of the three “undercapitalized” categories, such as declaration of dividends or other capital distributions or payment of management fees, if following the distribution or payment the institution would be classified within one of the “undercapitalized” categories. In addition, institutions that are classified in one of the three “undercapitalized” categories are subject to certain mandatory and discretionary supervisory actions. Mandatory supervisory actions include:

(1) increased monitoring and review by the appropriate federal banking agency;

(2) implementation of a capital restoration plan;

(3) total asset growth restrictions; and

(4) limitation upon acquisitions, branch expansion, and new business activities without prior approval of the appropriate federal banking agency. Discretionary supervisory actions may include:

          (a) requirements to augment capital;

          (b) restrictions upon affiliate transactions;

          (c) restrictions upon deposit gathering activities and interest rates paid;

          (d) replacement of senior executive officers and directors;

          (e) restrictions upon activities of the institution and its affiliates;

          (f) requiring divestiture or sale of the institution; and

          (g) any other supervisory action that the appropriate federal banking agency determines is necessary to further the purposes of the regulations. Further, the federal banking agencies may not accept a capital restoration plan without determining, among other things, that the plan is based on realistic assumptions and is likely to succeed in restoring the depository institution’s capital. In addition, for a capital restoration plan to be acceptable, the depository institution’s parent holding company must guarantee that the institution will comply with such capital restoration plan.

9


          The aggregate liability of the parent holding company under the guaranty is limited to the lesser of (i) an amount equal to 5 percent of the depository institution’s total assets at the time it became undercapitalized, and (ii) the amount that is necessary (or would have been necessary) to bring the institution into compliance with all capital standards applicable with respect to such institution as of the time it fails to comply with the plan. If a depository institution fails to submit an acceptable plan, it is treated as if it were “significantly undercapitalized”. FDICIA also restricts the solicitation and acceptance of and interest rates payable on brokered deposits by insured depository institutions that are not “well capitalized.” An “undercapitalized” institution is not allowed to solicit deposits by offering rates of interest that are significantly higher than the prevailing rates of interest on insured deposits in the particular institution’s normal market areas or in the market areas in which such deposits would otherwise be accepted.

          Any financial institution which is classified as “critically undercapitalized” must be placed in conservatorship or receivership within 90 days of such determination unless it is also determined that some other course of action would better serve the purposes of the regulations. Critically undercapitalized institutions are also prohibited from making (but not accruing) any payment of principal or interest on subordinated debt without prior regulatory approval and regulators must prohibit a critically undercapitalized institution from taking certain other actions without prior approval, including (1) entering into any material transaction other than in the usual course of business, including investment expansion, acquisition, sale of assets or other similar actions; (2) extending credit for any highly leveraged transaction; (3) amending articles or bylaws unless required to do so to comply with any law, regulation or order; (4) making any material change in accounting methods; (5) engaging in certain affiliate transactions; (6) paying excessive compensation or bonuses; and (7) paying interest on new or renewed liabilities at rates which would increase the weighted average costs of funds beyond prevailing rates in the institution’s normal market areas.

Additional Regulations

          Under FDICIA, the federal financial institution agencies have adopted regulations which require institutions to establish and maintain comprehensive written real estate policies which address certain lending considerations, including loan-to-value limits, loan administrative policies, portfolio diversification standards, and documentation, approval and reporting requirements. FDICIA further generally prohibits an insured bank from engaging as a principal in any activity that is impermissible for a national bank, absent Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation determination that the activity would not pose a significant risk to the Bank Insurance Fund, and that such bank is, and will continue to be, within applicable capital standards.

10


          The Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (“FFIEC”) utilizes the Uniform Institutions Rating System (“UFIRS”), commonly referred to as “CAMELS,” to classify and evaluate the soundness of financial institutions. Bank examiners use the CAMELS measurements to evaluate capital adequacy, asset quality, management, earnings, liquidity and sensitivity to market risk. Effective January 1, 2005, bank holding companies such as the Company, became subject to evaluation and examination under a revised bank holding company rating system. This so-called BOPEC rating system, implemented in 1979, has been focused primarily on financial condition, consolidated capital and consolidated earnings. The new rating system reflects a change toward analysis of risk management (as reflected in bank examination under the CAMELS measurements), in addition to financial factors and the potential impact of nondepository subsidiaries upon depository institution subsidiaries.

          The federal financial institution agencies have established bases for analysis and standards for assessing financial institution’s capital adequacy in conjunction with the risk-based capital guidelines including analysis of interest rate risk, concentrations of credit risk, risk posed by non-traditional activities, and factors affecting overall safety and soundness. The safety and soundness standards for insured financial institutions include analysis of (1) internal controls, information systems and internal audit systems; (2) loan documentation; (3) credit underwriting; (4) interest rate exposure; (5) asset growth; (6) compensation, fees and benefits; and (7) excessive compensation for executive officers, directors or principal shareholders which could lead to material financial loss. If an agency determines that an institution fails to meet any standard, the agency may require the financial institution to submit to the agency an acceptable plan to achieve compliance with the standard. If the agency requires submission of a compliance plan and the institution fails to timely submit an acceptable plan or to implement an accepted plan, the agency must require the institution to correct the deficiency. The agencies may elect to initiate enforcement action in certain cases rather than rely on an existing plan particularly where failure to meet one or more of the standards could threaten the safe and sound operation of the institution.

          Community Reinvestment Act (“CRA”) regulations evaluate banks’ lending to low and moderate income individuals and businesses across a four-point scale from “outstanding” to “substantial noncompliance,” and are a factor in regulatory review of applications to merge, establish new branches or form bank holding companies. In addition, any bank rated in “substantial noncompliance” with the CRA regulations may be subject to enforcement proceedings. First National Bank has a current rating of “satisfactory” for CRA compliance.

Limitation on Dividends

          FNB Bancorp. The Company’s ability to pay cash dividends is subject to restrictions set forth in the California General Corporation Law. Funds for payment of any cash dividends by the Company would be obtained from its investments as well as dividends and/or management fees from First National Bank. First National Bank’s ability to pay cash dividends is subject to restrictions imposed under the National Bank Act and regulations promulgated by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency.

11


          FNB Bancorp has paid quarterly dividends for each quarter commencing with the second quarter of 2002. Future dividends will continue to be determined after consideration of the Company’s earnings, financial condition, future capital funds, regulatory requirements and other factors such as the Board of Directors may deem relevant. It is the intention of the Company to continue to pay cash dividends, subject to legal restrictions on the payment of cash dividends and depending upon the level of earnings, management’s assessment of future capital needs and other factors to be considered by the Board of Directors.

          The California General Corporation Law provides that a corporation may make a distribution to its shareholders if the corporation’s retained earnings equal at least the amount of the proposed distribution. The California General Corporation Law further provides that, in the event sufficient retained earnings are not available for the proposed distribution, a corporation may nevertheless make a distribution to its shareholders if, after giving effect to the distribution, it meets two conditions, which generally stated are as follows: (i) the corporation’s assets must equal at least 125% of its liabilities; and (ii) the corporation’s current assets must equal at least its current liabilities or, if the average of the corporation’s earnings before taxes on income and before interest expense for the two preceding fiscal years was less than the average of the corporation’s interest expense for those fiscal years, then the corporation’s current assets must equal at least 125% of its current liabilities.

          The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System generally prohibits a bank holding company from declaring or paying a cash dividend which would impose undue pressure on the capital of subsidiary banks or would be funded only through borrowing or other arrangements that might adversely affect a bank holding company’s financial position. The Federal Reserve Board policy is that a bank holding company should not continue its existing rate of cash dividends on its common stock unless its net income is sufficient to fully fund each dividend and its prospective rate of earnings retention appears consistent with its capital needs, asset quality and overall financial condition.

          First National Bank of Northern California. As First National Bank’s sole shareholder, FNB Bancorp is entitled to receive dividends when and as declared by its Board of Directors, out of funds legally available therefore, subject to the restrictions set forth in the National Bank Act.

          The payment of cash dividends by First National Bank may be subject to the approval of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, as well as restrictions established by federal banking law and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Approval of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency is required if the total of all dividends declared by First National Bank’s board of directors in any calendar year will exceed First National Bank’s net profits for that year combined with its retained net profits for the preceding two years, less any required transfers to surplus or to a fund for the retirement of preferred stock. Additionally, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and/or the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, might, under some circumstances, place restrictions on the ability of a bank to pay dividends based upon peer group averages and the performance and maturity of that bank.

COMPETITION

Competitive Data

          In its market area, First National Bank competes for deposit and loan customers with other banks (including those with much greater resources), thrifts and, to a lesser extent, credit unions, finance companies and other financial service providers.

          Larger banks may have a competitive advantage because of higher lending limits and major advertising and marketing campaigns. They also perform services, such as trust services, international banking, discount brokerage and insurance services, which First National Bank is not authorized nor prepared to offer currently. First National Bank has made arrangements with its correspondent banks and with others to provide some of these services for its customers. For borrowers requiring loans in excess of First National Bank’s legal lending limits, First National Bank has offered, and intends to offer in the future, such loans on a participating basis with its correspondent banks and with other independent banks, retaining the portion of such loans which is within its lending limits. As of December 31, 2007, First National Bank’s aggregate legal lending limits to a single borrower and such borrower’s related parties were $10,369,000 on an unsecured basis and $17,282,000 on a fully secured basis, based on regulatory capital of $69,129,000.

          First National Bank’s business is concentrated in its service area, which primarily encompasses San Mateo County, but also includes portions of the City and County of San Francisco. The economy of First National Bank’s service area is dependent upon government, manufacturing, tourism, retail sales, population growth and smaller service oriented businesses.

          Based upon the most recent information made available by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, at June 30, 2007, there were 33 commercial and savings banking institutions in San Mateo County with a total of $18,984,053,000 in deposits at June 30, 2007. First National Bank had a total of 11 offices with total deposits of $465,163,000 at the same date, or 2.45% of the San Mateo County totals. At June 30, 2006, there were 33 commercial and savings banking institutions in San Mateo County with total deposits of $18,211,791,000, while First National Bank had $438,557,000, or 2.41% of the San Mateo County totals.

          The Federal Deposit Insurance Reform Act of 2005 (the “Reform Act”) had the effect of merging the Bank Insurance Fund and the Savings Association Insurance Fund into a new Deposit Insurance Fund (“DIF”). This change was made effective on March 31, 2006. The FDIC released final regulations under the Reform Act on November 2, 2006 that establish a revised risk-based deposit insurance assessment rate system for members of the DIF to insure, among other matters, that there will be sufficient assessment income for repayment of DIF obligations and to further refine the differentiation of risk profiles among institutions as a basis for assessments. Under the new assessment rate system, the FDIC set the assessment rates (effective January 1, 2007) for most institutions from $0.05 to $0.07 per $100 of insured deposits and established a Designated Reserve Ratio (“DRR”) for the DIF during 2007 of 1.25% of insured deposits.

13


          The new assessment rate system consolidates the nine categories of the prior assessment system into four categories (Risk Categories I, II, III and IV) and three Supervisory Groups (A, B and C) based upon institution’s capital levels and supervisory ratings. Risk Category I includes all well capitalized institutions with the highest supervisory ratings. Risk Category II includes adequately capitalized institutions that are assigned to Supervisory Groups A and B. Risk Category III includes all undercapitalized institutions that are assigned to Supervisory Groups A and B and institutions assigned to Supervisory Group C that are not undercapitalized but have a low supervisory rating. Risk Category IV includes all undercapitalized institutions that are assigned to Supervisory Group C.

          Based upon the current assessment rate system, the Bank’s capital ratios and levels of deposits, the Bank does not anticipate a significant increase in operating expenses due to the assessment rate expected to be applicable to the Bank during 2008 compared to the rate applicable to the Bank in 2007.

General Competitive Factors

          In order to compete with the financial institutions in their primary service areas, community banks such as First National Bank use to the fullest extent possible, the flexibility which is accorded by their independent status. This includes an emphasis on specialized services, local promotional activity, and personal contacts by their respective officers, directors and employees. They also seek to provide special services and programs for individuals in their primary service area who are employed in the agricultural, professional and business fields, such as loans for equipment, furniture and tools of the trade or expansion of practices or businesses. In the event there are customers whose loan demands exceed their respective lending limits, they seek to arrange for such loans on a participation basis with other financial institutions. They also assist those customers requiring services not offered by either bank to obtain such services from correspondent banks.

          Banking is a business that depends on interest rate differentials. In general, the difference .between the interest rate paid by a bank to obtain their deposits and other borrowings and the interest rate received by a bank on loans extended to customers and on securities held in a bank’s portfolio comprise the major portion of a bank’s earnings. Commercial banks compete with savings and loan associations, credit unions, other financial institutions and other entities for funds. For instance, yields on corporate and government debt securities and other commercial paper affect the ability of commercial banks to attract and hold deposits. Commercial banks also compete for loans with savings and loan associations, credit unions, consumer finance companies, mortgage companies and other lending institutions.

14


          The interest rate differentials of a bank, and therefore its earnings, are affected not only by general economic conditions, both domestic and foreign, but also by statutes and as implemented by federal agencies, particularly the Federal Reserve Board. The Federal Reserve Board can and does implement national monetary policy, such as seeking to curb inflation and combat recession, by its open market operations in United States government securities, adjustments in the amount of interest free reserves that banks and other financial institutions are required to maintain, and adjustments to the discount rates applicable to borrowing by banks from the Federal Reserve Board. These activities influence the growth of bank loans, investments and deposits and also affect interest rates charged on loans and paid on deposits. The nature and timing of any future changes in monetary policies and their impact on First National Bank are not predictable.

Legislative and Regulatory Impact

          Since 1996, California law implementing certain provisions of prior federal law has (1) permitted interstate merger transactions; (2) prohibited interstate branching through the acquisition of a branch business unit located in California without acquisition of the whole business unit of the California bank; and (3) prohibited interstate branching through de novo establishment of California branch offices. Initial entry into California by an out-of-state institution must be accomplished by acquisition or merger with an existing whole bank, which has been in existence for at least five years.

          The federal financial institution agencies, especially the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Board of Governors, have taken steps to increase the types of activities in which national banks and bank holding companies can engage, and to make it easier to engage in such activities. The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency has issued regulations permitting national banks to engage in a wider range of activities through subsidiaries. “Eligible institutions” (those national banks that are well capitalized, have a high overall rating and a satisfactory CRA rating, and are not subject to an enforcement order) may engage in activities related to banking through operating subsidiaries subject to an expedited application process. In addition, a national bank may apply to the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency to engage in an activity through a subsidiary in which First National Bank itself may not engage.

          The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (the “Act”), eliminated most of the remaining depression-era “firewalls” between banks, securities firms and insurance companies which was established by the Banking Act of 1933, also known as the Glass-Steagall Act (“Glass-Steagall”). Glass-Steagall sought to insulate banks as depository institutions from the perceived risks of securities dealing and underwriting, and related activities. The Act repealed Section 20 of Glass-Steagall, which prohibited banks from affiliating with securities firms. Bank holding companies that can qualify as “financial holding companies” can now, among other matters, acquire securities firms or create them as subsidiaries, and securities firms can now acquire banks or start banking activities through a financial holding company. The Act includes provisions which permit national banks to conduct financial activities through a subsidiary that are permissible for a national bank to engage in directly, as well as certain activities authorized by statute, or that are financial in nature or incidental to financial activities to the same extent as permitted to a “financial holding company” or its affiliates.

15


This liberalization of United States banking and financial services regulation applies both to domestic institutions and foreign institutions conducting business in the United States. Consequently, the common ownership of banks, securities firms and insurance is now possible, as is the conduct of commercial banking, merchant banking, investment management, securities underwriting and insurance within a single financial institution using a structure authorized by the Act.

          Prior to the Act, significant restrictions existed on the affiliation of banks with securities firms and related securities activities. Banks were also (with minor exceptions) prohibited from engaging in insurance activities or affiliating with insurers. The Act removed these restrictions and substantially eliminated the prohibitions under the Bank Holding Company Act on affiliations between banks and insurance companies. Bank holding companies which qualify as financial holding companies can now, among other matters, insure, guarantee, or indemnify against loss, harm, damage, illness, disability, or death; issue annuities; and act as a principal, agent, or broker regarding such insurance services.

          In order for a commercial bank to affiliate with a securities firm or an insurance company pursuant to the Act, its bank holding company must qualify as a financial holding company. A bank holding company will qualify if (i) its banking subsidiaries are “well capitalized” and “well managed” and (ii) it files with the Board of Governors a certification to such an effect and a declaration that it elects to become a financial holding company. The amendment of the Bank Holding Company Act now permits financial holding companies to engage in activities, and acquire companies engaged in activities, that are financial in nature or incidental to such financial activities. Financial holding companies are also permitted to engage in activities that are complementary to financial activities if the Board of Governors determines that the activity does not pose a substantial risk to the safety or soundness of depository institutions or the financial system in general. These standards expand upon the list of activities “closely related to banking” which to date have defined the permissible activities of bank holding companies under the Bank Holding Company Act.

          One further effect of the Act was to require that federal financial institution and securities regulatory agencies prescribe regulation to implement the policy that financial institutions must respect the privacy of their customers and protect the security and confidentiality of customers’ non-public personal information. These regulations require, in general, that financial institutions (1) may not disclose non-public information of customers to non-affiliated third parties without notice to their customers, who must have an opportunity to direct that such information not be disclosed; (2) may not disclose customer account numbers except to consumer reporting agencies; and (3) must give prior disclosure of their privacy policies before establishing new customer relationships.

          Neither the Company nor First National Bank has determined whether or when it may seek to acquire and exercise new powers or activities under the Act, and the extent to which competition will change among financial institutions affected by the Act has not yet become clear.

RECENT LEGISLATION

The Patriot Act

          On October 26, 2001, President Bush signed the USA Patriot Act (the “Patriot Act”), which includes provisions pertaining to domestic security, surveillance procedures, border protection, and terrorism laws to be administered by the Secretary of the Treasury. Title III of the Patriot Act entitled, “International Money Laundering Abatement and Anti-Terrorist Financing Act of 2001”includes amendments to the Bank Secrecy Act which expand the responsibilities of financial institutions in regard to anti-money laundering activities with particular emphasis upon international money laundering and terrorism financing activities through designated correspondent and private banking accounts.

          Effective December 25, 2001, Section 313(a) of the Patriot Act prohibits any insured financial institution such as First National Bank, from providing correspondent accounts to foreign banks which do not have a physical presence in any country (designated as “shell banks”), subject to certain exceptions for regulated affiliates of foreign banks. Section 313(a) also requires financial institutions to take reasonable steps to ensure that foreign bank correspondent accounts are not being used to indirectly provide banking services to foreign shell banks, and Section 319(b) requires financial institutions to maintain records of the owners and agent for service of process of any such foreign banks with whom correspondent accounts have been established.

          Effective July 23, 2002, Section 312 of the Patriot Act created a requirement for special due diligence for correspondent accounts and private banking accounts. Under Section 312, each financial institution that establishes, maintains, administers, or manages a private banking account or a correspondent account in the United States for a non-United States person, including a foreign individual visiting the United States, or a representative of a non-United States person shall establish appropriate, specific, and, where necessary, enhanced, due diligence policies, procedures, and controls that are reasonably designed to detect and record instances of money laundering through those accounts.

          The Patriot Act contains various provisions in addition to Sections 313(a) and 312 that affect the operations of financial institutions by encouraging cooperation among financial institutions, regulatory authorities and law enforcement authorities with respect to individuals, entities and organizations engaged in, or reasonably suspected of engaging in, terrorist acts or money laundering activities. The Company and First National Bank are not currently aware of any account relationships between First National Bank and any foreign bank or other person or entity as described above under Sections 313(a) or 312 of the Patriot Act.

          In March 2, 2006, after temporary extensions of the Patriot Act, Congress passed and President Bush signed the “USA Patriot Act Improvement and Reauthorization Act of 2005,” and the related Amendments Act of 2006, which reauthorized all expiring provisions of the Patriot Act by making permanent 14 of the 16 provisions and imposed a four-year expiration date in 2009 on the other two provisions related to “roving surveillance” and production of business records.

17


          The effects which the Patriot Act and any additional legislation enacted by Congress may have upon financial institutions is uncertain; however, such legislation could increase compliance costs and thereby potentially may have an adverse effect upon the Company’s results of operations.

Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002

          On July 30, 2002, President George W. Bush signed into law the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Act”), legislation designed to address certain issues of corporate governance and accountability. The key provisions of the Act and the rules promulgated by the SEC pursuant to the Act include the following:

 

 

 

 

Expanded oversight of the accounting profession by creating a new independent public company oversight board to be monitored by the SEC.

 

 

 

 

Revised rules on auditor independence to restrict the nature of non-audit services provided to audit clients and to require such services to be pre-approved by the audit committee.

 

 

 

 

Improved corporate responsibility through mandatory listing standards relating to audit committees, certifications of periodic reports by the CEO and CFO and making issuer interference with an audit a crime.

 

 

 

 

Enhanced financial disclosures, including periodic reviews for largest issuers and real time disclosure of material company information.

 

 

 

 

Enhanced criminal penalties for a broad array of white collar crimes and increases in the statute of limitations for securities fraud lawsuits.

 

 

 

 

Disclosure of whether a company has adopted a code of ethics that applies to the company’s principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions, and disclosure of any amendments or waivers to such code of ethics.

 

 

 

 

Disclosure of whether a company’s audit committee of its board of directors has a member of the audit committee who qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert.”

 

 

 

 

A prohibition on insider trading during pension plan black-out periods.

 

 

 

 

Disclosure of off-balance sheet transactions.

 

 

 

 

A prohibition on personal loans to directors and officers.

 

 

 

 

Conditions on the use of non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) financial measures.

18


 

 

 

 

Standards of professional conduct for attorneys, requiring attorneys having an attorney-client relationship with a company, among other matters, to report “up the ladder” to the audit committee, to another board committee or to the entire board of directors regarding certain material violations.

 

 

 

 

Expedited filing requirements for Form 4 reports of changes in beneficial ownership of securities, reducing the filing deadline to within 2 business days of the date on which an obligation to report is triggered.

 

 

 

 

Accelerated filing requirements for reports on Forms 10-K and 10-Q by public companies which qualify as “accelerated filers,” with a phased-in reduction of the filing deadline for Form 10-K and Form 10-Q.

 

 

 

 

Disclosure concerning website access to reports on Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K, and any amendments to those reports, by “accelerated filers” as soon as reasonably practicable after such reports and material are filed with or furnished to the SEC.

 

 

 

 

Rules requiring national securities exchanges and national securities associations to prohibit the listing of any security whose issuer does not meet audit committee standards established pursuant to the Act.

          The Company’s securities are not currently listed on any exchange. In the event of such a listing in the future, in addition to the rules promulgated by the SEC pursuant to the Act, the Company would be required to comply with the listing standards applicable to all exchange listed companies.

          The Company has incurred and it is anticipated that it will continue to incur costs to comply with the Act and the rules and regulations promulgated pursuant to the Act by the Securities and Exchange Commission of approximately $150,000 annually.

California Corporate Disclosure Act

          Effective January 1, 2003, the California Corporate Disclosure Act (the “CCD Act”) required publicly traded corporations incorporated or qualified to do business in California to disclose information about their past history, auditors, directors and officers. Effective September 28, 2004, the CCD Act, as currently in effect and codified at California Corporations Code Section 1502.1, requires the Company to file with the California Secretary of State and disclose within 150 days after the end of its fiscal year certain information including the following:

 

 

 

 

The name of the a company’s independent auditor and a description of services, if any, performed for a company during the previous two fiscal years and the period from the end of the most recent fiscal year to the date of filing;

19



 

 

 

 

The annual compensation paid to each director and the five most highly compensated non- director executive officers (including the CEO) during the most recent fiscal year, including all plan and non-plan compensation for all services rendered to a company as specified in Item 402 of Regulation S-K such as grants, awards or issuance of stock, stock options and similar equity-based compensation;

 

 

 

 

A description of any loans made to a director or executive officer at a “preferential” loan rate during the company’s two most recent fiscal years, including the amount and terms of the loans;

 

 

 

 

Whether any bankruptcy was filed by a company or any of its directors or executive officers within the previous 10 years;

 

 

 

 

Whether any director or executive officer of a company has been convicted of fraud during the previous 10 years; and

 

 

 

 

A description of any material pending legal proceedings other than ordinary routine litigation as specified in Item 103 of Regulation S-K and a description of such litigation where the company was found legally liable by a final judgment or order.

          The Company does not currently anticipate that compliance with the CCD Act will have a material adverse effect upon its financial position or results of its operations or its cash flows.

Future Legislation and Regulations

          Certain legislative and regulatory proposals that could affect FNB Bancorp, First National Bank, and the banking business in general are periodically introduced before the United States Congress, the California State Legislature and Federal and state government agencies. It is not known to what extent, if any, legislative proposals will be enacted and what effect such legislation would have on the structure, regulation and competitive relationships of financial institutions. It is likely, however, that such legislation could subject FNB Bancorp and First National Bank to increased regulation, disclosure and reporting requirements, competition, and costs of doing business.

          In addition to legislative changes, the various Federal and state financial institution regulatory agencies frequently propose rules and regulations to implement and enforce already existing legislation. It cannot be predicted whether or in what form any such rules or regulations will be enacted or the effect that such regulations may have on the Company and First National Bank.

20


ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

          In addition to the risks associated with the business of banking generally, as described above under Item 1 (Description of Business), the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results, future prospects and stock price can be adversely impacted by certain risk factors, as set forth below, any of which could cause the Company’s actual results to vary materially from recent results or from the Company’s anticipated future results.

Dependence on Key Officers and Employees. We are dependent on the successful recruitment and retention of highly qualified personnel. Our ability to implement our business strategies is closely tied to the strengths of our executive officers who have extensive experience in the banking industry but who are not easily replaced. In addition, business banking, one of the Company’s principal lines of business, is dependent on relationship banking, in which First National Bank personnel develop professional relationships with small business owners and officers of larger business customers who are responsible for the financial management of the companies they represent. If these employees were to leave First National Bank and become employed by a local competing bank, we could potentially lose business customers. In addition, we rely on our customer service staff to effectively serve the needs of our consumer customers. We actively recruit for all open positions and management believes that its relations with employees are good.

Growth strategy. We have pursued and continue to pursue a growth strategy which depends primarily on generating an increasing level of loans and deposits at acceptable risk levels. We may not be able to sustain this growth strategy without establishing new branches or new products. Therefore, we may expand in our current market by opening or acquiring branch offices or other financial institutions or branch offices. This expansion may require significant investments in equipment, technology, personnel and site locations. We cannot assure you of our success in implementing our growth strategy without corresponding increases in our noninterest expenses.

Commercial loans. As of December 31, 2007, approximately 16.6% of our loan portfolio consisted of commercial business loans, which have a higher degree of risk than other types of loans. Commercial business loans generally involve a greater degree of risk than residential mortgage loans and carry larger loan balances. This increased credit risk is a result of several factors, including the concentration of principal in a limited number of loans and borrowers, the mobility of collateral, the effect of general economic conditions and the increased difficulty of evaluating and monitoring these types of loans. In addition, unlike residential mortgage loans, which generally are made on the basis of the borrower’s ability to make repayment from his or her employment and other income and which are secured by real property whose value tends to be more easily ascertainable, commercial business loans typically are made on the basis of the borrower’s ability to make repayment from the cash flow of the borrower’s business. As a result, the availability of funds for the repayment of commercial business loans may be substantially dependent on the success of the business itself and the general economic environment. If the cash flow from business operations is reduced, the borrower’s ability to repay the loan may be impaired.

21


Real Estate Values. A large portion of the loan portfolio of the Company is dependent on real estate. At December 31, 2007, real estate (including construction loans) served as the principal source of collateral with respect to approximately 71.1% of the Company’s loan portfolio. A substantial decline in the economy in general, or a decline in real estate values in the Company’s primary operating market areas in particular, could have an adverse effect on the demand for new loans, the ability of borrowers to repay outstanding loans, the value of real estate and other collateral securing loans and the value of the available-for-sale investment portfolio, as well as the Company’s financial condition and results of operations in general and the market value for Company Common Stock. Acts of nature, including fires, earthquakes and floods, which may cause uninsured damage and other loss of value to real estate that secures these loans, may also negatively impact the Company’s financial condition.

Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses. Like all financial institutions, the Company maintains an allowance for loan losses to provide for loan defaults and non-performance, but its allowance for loan losses may not be adequate to cover actual loan and lease losses. In addition, future provisions for loan and lease losses could materially and adversely affect the Company and therefore the Company’s operating results. The Company’s allowance for loan and lease losses is based on prior experience, as well as an evaluation of the risks in the current portfolio. The amount of future losses is susceptible to changes in economic, operating and other conditions, including changes in interest rates that may be beyond the Company’s control, and these losses may exceed current estimates. Federal regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, review the Company’s loans and allowance for loan and lease losses. Although we believe that the Company’s allowance for loan and lease losses is adequate to cover current losses, we cannot assure you that it will not further increase the allowance for loan and lease losses or that the regulators will not require it to increase this allowance. Either of these occurrences could materially and adversely affect the Company’s earnings.

Environmental Liabilities. In the course of our business, we may foreclose and take title to real estate, and could be subject to environmental liabilities with respect to these properties. We may be held liable to a governmental entity or third parties for property damage, personal injury, investigation and clean-up costs incurred by these parties in connection with environmental contamination, or may be required to investigate or clean up hazardous or toxic substances, or chemical releases at a property. The costs associated with investigations or remediation activities could be substantial. In addition, as the owner or former owner of a contaminated site, we could become subject to common law claims by third parties based on damages and costs resulting from environmental contamination emanating from the property. If we ever become subject to significant environmental liabilities, our business prospects, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations and stock price could be materially and adversely affected.

Dilution of Common Stock. Shares of the Company’s common stock eligible for future sale could have a dilutive effect on the market for common stock and could adversely affect the market price.

22


The Articles of Incorporation of the Company authorize the issuance of 10,000,000 shares of common stock, of which 2,965,000 were outstanding at December 31, 2007. Pursuant to its 1997 and 2002 Stock Option Plans, at December 31, 2007, the Company had outstanding options to purchase 289,782 shares of common stock. As of December 31, 2007, 20,398 shares of common stock remained available for grants under the 2002 Stock Option Plan. Sales of substantial amounts of the Company’s common stock in the public market could adversely affect the market price of common stock.

Operating Losses. The Company is subject to certain operations risks, including, but not limited to, data processing system failures and errors and customer or employee fraud. The Company maintains a system of internal controls to mitigate against such occurrences and maintains insurance coverage for such risks, but should such an event occur that is not prevented or detected by the Company’s internal controls, uninsured or in excess of applicable insurance limits, it could have a significant adverse impact on the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations.

Business Confidence Uncertainty. The terrorist actions on September 11, 2001, and thereafter, plus military actions taken by the United States in Afghanistan, Iraq and elsewhere, have had significant adverse effects upon the United States economy. Whether terrorist activities in the future and the actions taken by the United States and its allies in combating terrorism on a worldwide basis will adversely impact the Company, and the extent of such impact, is uncertain. However, such events have had and may continue to have an adverse effect on the economy in the Company’s market areas. Such continued economic deterioration could adversely affect the Company’s future results of operations by, among other matters, reducing the demand for loans and the amounts required to be reserved for loan losses, reducing the value of collateral held as security for the Company’s loans, and causing a decline in the Company’s stock price.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OF FNB BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARY

          Critical Accounting Policies And Estimates

          Management’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Company’s financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to its loans and allowance for loan losses. The Company bases its estimates on current market conditions, historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. All adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation for the periods presented have been reflected as require by Regulation S-X, Rule 10-01. The Company believes the following critical accounting policy requires significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.

          Allowance for Loan Losses

          The allowance for loan losses is periodically evaluated for adequacy by management. Factors considered include the Company’s loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, current economic conditions, known adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, regulatory policies, and the estimated value of underlying collateral. The evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is based on the above factors along with prevailing and anticipated economic conditions that may impact borrowers’ ability to repay loans. Determination of the allowance is in part objective and in part a subjective judgment by management given the information it currently has in its possession. Adverse changes in any of these factors or the discovery of new adverse information could result in higher charge-offs and loan loss provisions.

          Goodwill

          Goodwill arises from the Company’s purchase price exceeding the fair value of the net assets of an acquired business. Goodwill represents the value attributable to intangible elements acquired. The value of this goodwill is supported ultimately by profit from the acquired business. A decline in earnings could lead to impairment, which would be recorded as a write-down in the Company’s consolidated statements of income. Events that may indicate goodwill impairment include significant or adverse changes in results of operations of the acquired business or asset, economic or political climate; an adverse action or assessment by a regulator; unanticipated competition; and a more-likely-than-not expectation that a reporting unit will be sold or disposed of at a loss.

30


          Provision for Income Taxes

          The Company is subject to income tax laws of the United States, its states, and municipalities in which it operates. The Company considers its income tax provision methodology to be critical, as the determination of current and deferred taxes based on complex analyses of many factors including interpretation of federal and state laws, the difference between tax and financial reporting bases of assets and liabilities (temporary differences), estimates of amounts due or owed, the timing of reversals of temporary differences and current financial standards. Actual results could differ significantly from the estimates due to tax law interpretations used in determining the current and deferred income tax liabilities. Additionally, there can be no assurances that estimates and interpretations used in determining income tax liabilities may not be challenged by federal and state taxing authorities.

          Recent Accounting Pronouncements

          In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. (“FIN”) 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes.” This interpretation guides the accounting and reporting of income taxes where interpretation of the law is uncertain. FIN 48 prescribes a comprehensive model for the financial statement recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of income tax uncertainties with respect to positions taken or expected to be taken in income tax returns. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2006. The Company adopted this Statement on January 1, 2007. As a result of the implementation of FIN 48, it was not necessary for the Company to recognize any increase in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits. The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of the adoption of FIN 48, including estimated penalties and interest, was $35,000 and relates to the level of Enterprise Zone credits that have been claimed on filed California tax returns. The Company recognizes interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. The statute of limitations for assessment of additional taxes on income for Federal income and California franchise tax purposes are closed years prior to 2004 and 2003, respectively.

          In September 2006, FASB issued Statement No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” This Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement supplements other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. This Statement also expands disclosures using fair value to measure assets and liabilities in interim and annual periods subsequent to the period of initial recognition. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

31


          In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement No. 159 The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115. Statement No. 159 establishes a fair value option that allows an entity to designate individual financial assets and liabilities as fair value option instruments. Under the fair value option, the change in unrealized gains and losses created by the change in fair value of financial instruments shall be reported in an entity’s earnings for each reporting period. Additional disclosures regarding fair value for financial assets and liabilities accounting for under the fair value option are also required. This statement is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. The Company does not expect this standard to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) announced that it had revised Statement 141, Business Combinations, with 141(R). The revised Statement No. 141 was written to improve the relevance, representational faithfulness and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial reports about a business combination and its effects. This Statement establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer:

 

 

 

 

a.

Recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree

 

 

 

 

b.

Recognizes and measures the goodwill acquired in the business combination or a gain from a bargain purchase

 

 

 

 

c.

Determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature andfinancial effects of the business combination

This Statement applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company does not expect this Standard to have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

          In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interest in Consolidated Financial Statements – an amendment of ARB No. 51.” Statement No. 160 clarifies reporting and disclosure requirements related to noncontrolling interest included in an entity’s consolidated financial statements. This Statement clarifies that noncontrolling interests are to be reported in the noncontrolling section of the balance sheet and requires net income to include amounts from both the parent and the noncontrolling interest. This Statement also requires the parent company to recognize a gain or loss in net income when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. This Statement is effective for fiscal years (and interim periods within those years), beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company will apply this Statement prospectively and does not expect the Statement to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

32


          Earnings Analysis

          Net earnings in 2007 were $6,679,000, a $903,000 or a 11.9% decrease from 2006 earnings of $7,582,000. Earnings for the year 2006 increased $1,854,000 or 32.4% from year 2005 earnings of $5,728,000. The primary reason for the decrease in 2007 and the increase in 2006 was a gain on sale of Pacific Coast Banker’s Bank stock of $1,352,000 recorded in the first quarter of 2006. The principal source of earnings is interest income on loans. During 2006, the prime lending rate started at 7.25%, and ended at 8.25%. In 2007, it started at 8.25% and ended at 7.25%.

          Basic earnings per share were $2.23 in 2007, $2.54 in 2006 and $1.93 in 2005. Diluted earnings per share were $2.21 in 2007; $2.48 in 2006; and $1.89 in 2005.

          Net interest income for 2007 was $28,633,000, an increase of $1,258,000 or 4.6% from 2006. Net interest income was $27,375,000 in 2006, an increase of $2,176,000 or 8.6% from 2005. Interest income was $42,290,000 in 2007, an increase of $5,094,000 or 13.7% over 2006. Interest income was $37,196,000 in 2006, an increase of $6,464,000, or 21.0% over 2005. The increase in net interest income was caused by an increase in both the rate and volume of earning assets generated through our existing branch network. Average interest earning assets in 2007 were $567,245,000, an increase of $46,315,000 or 8.9% over 2006. In 2006 they were $520,930,000, an increase of $43,097,000 or 9.0% over 2005. The yield on interest earning assets increased 32 basis points in 2007 compared to 2006. The yield on interest earning assets increased 71 basis points in 2006 compared to 2005. The principal earning assets were loans, and average loans outstanding increased $80,269,000 in 2007 versus 2006, while their yield decreased 10 basis points in 2007 versus 2006. Average loans were $387,163,000 in 2006, an increase of $23,764,000 over 2005, while their yield increased 88 basis points.

           Interest expense for 2007 was $13,657,000 compared to $9,821,000 in 2006, an increase of $3,836,000 or 39.1%. Interest expense in 2006 was $9,821,000 compared to $5,533,000 in 2005, an increase of $4,288,000 or 77.5%. The increase in interest expense during 2007 and 2006 was caused by both a volume and rate increase on deposits obtained through our existing branch network. No new branches or significant product lines were added during 2007. Average interest bearing liabilities were $426,354,000 in 2007 and $386,254,000 in 2006, an increase of $40,100,000 or 10.4%. They were $386,254,000 in 2006, and $353,857,000 in 2005, an increase of $32,397,000 or 9.2%. The cost of these liabilities increased 66 basis points in 2007 compared to 2006, and increased 98 basis points in 2006 compared to 2005. The principal cost was in time deposits, which increased 78 basis points in 2007 compared to 2006, and increased 105 basis points in 2006 compared to 2005.

          Net Interest Income

          Net interest income is the difference between interest yield generated by earning assets and the interest expense associated with the funding of those assets. Net interest income is affected by the interest rate earned or paid and by volume changes in loans, investment securities, deposits and borrowed funds.

Interest income is reflected on an actual basis, not on a fully taxable equivalent basis. Yields on gross loans were not adjusted for nonaccrual loans, as these were considered not material for this calculation. Fee income included in interest income was $1,593,000 in 2007, $1,445,000 in 2006 and $1,318,000 in 2005.

The following table analyzes the dollar amount of change in interest income and expense and the changes in dollar amounts attributable to (a) changes in volume (changes in volume at the current year rate), (b) changes in rate (changes in rate times the prior year’s volume) and (c) changes in rate/volume (changes in rate times changes in volume). In this table, the dollar change in rate/volume is prorated to volume and rate proportionately.

          In 2007, net interest income represented 86.94% of net revenue (net interest income plus noninterest income) compared to 81.39% in 2006 and 86.77% in 2005. The net interest margin on average earning assets was 5.05% in 2007 compared to 5.26% in 2006 and 5.27% in 2005. The average rate earned on interest earning assets was 7.46% in 2007, up from 7.14% in 2006, and 6.43% in 2005. The average cost for interest-bearing liabilities was 3.20% in 2007 compared to 2.54% in 2006 and 1.56% in 2005.

          As mentioned above under the heading “Earnings Analysis”, there were increases in the prime lending rate during 2006, followed by decreases from 8.25% at the end of 2006 to 7.25% at the end of 2007, as a result of action by the Federal Open Market Committee of the Federal Reserve, which affected interest-bearing assets and interest-bearing liabilities.

          Yield on average loans was 8.14% in 2007, decreasing from 8.24% in 2006 and 7.36% in 2005. Interest on average taxable securities was 5.05% in 2007, increasing from 4.13% in 2006 and 3.60% in 2005. Interest on average nontaxable securities was 3.63% in 2007, 3.54% in 2006, and 3.39% in 2005. Interest on average federal funds sold was 5.18% in 2007, 4.94% in 2006, and 3.12% in 2005. Interest on average total interest earning assets was 7.46% in 2007, 7.14% in 2006, and 6.43% in 2005. On the expense side, interest on average interest bearing demand deposits was 0.70% in 2007, 0.54% in 2006, and 0.29% in 2005. Interest on average money market accounts was 3.41% in 2007, 2.86% in 2006, and 1.71% in 2005. Interest on average savings accounts was 0.51% in 2007, 0.49% in 2006, and 0.31% in 2005. Interest on average time deposits was 4.41% in 2007, 3.63% in 2006, and 2.58% in 2005. Interest on average Federal Home Loan Bank advances was 5.24% in 2007, 5.55% in 2006, and 2.49% in 2005. Interest on federal funds purchased was 5.08% in 2007, 5.77% in 2006, and 3.03% in 2005. Interest on average total interest bearing liabilities was 3.20% in 2007, 2.54% in 2006, and 1.56% in 2005. Yields on total average interest earning assets and total average interest bearing liabilities increased in 2007, 2006 and 2005 as a result of increased short term market interest rates. There were no new branches added in 2007.

          Allowance For Loan Losses

          The Bank has the responsibility of assessing the overall risks in its loan portfolio, assessing the specific loss expectancy, and determining the adequacy of the loan loss reserve. The level of reserves is determined by internally generating credit quality ratings, reviewing economic conditions in the Bank’s market area, and considering the Bank’s historical loan loss experience. The Bank is committed to maintaining adequate reserves, identifying credit weaknesses by consistent review of loans, and maintaining the risk ratings and changing those risk ratings in a timely manner as circumstances change.

          During 2006, the Bank provided a reserve for unfunded loan commitments in a separate account in Other Liabilities. The Allowance for Loan Losses in Table 3 has been reclassified for prior years to agree with the current year presentation.

          Real estate loans outstanding increased by $33,395,000 in 2007 compared to 2006. They increased $15,842,000 in 2006 compared to 2005. The proportion of the Allowance for Loan Losses attributable to real estate loans was $3,669,000 in 2007 compared to $3,864,000 in 2006 and compared to $3,373,000 in 2005.

          As a percentage of total loans, the allowance allocated to these loans was 71.1% in 2007, 74.9% in 2006, and 78.5% in 2005. The real estate loan growth in 2007 and 2006 was primarily the result of increased market penetration within our existing market area. The perceived risk in the Real Estate loan portfolio has decreased slightly in 2006 and 2007. However, a larger proportion has been allocated to Construction loans, which carry a greater degree of risk.

          The allowance for loan losses totaled $5,638,000, $5,002,000 and $4,374,000 at December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively. This represented 1.14%, 1.18% and 1.14% of total loans outstanding on those dates. These balances reflect amounts that, in management’s judgment, are adequate to provide for probable loan losses based on the considerations listed above. During 2007, the provision for loan losses was $690,000, and the charge-offs were $80,000. In 2006, the provision for loan losses was $683,000, while charge-offs were $59,000. In 2005, the provision for loan losses was $628,000, while charge-offs were $110,000.

Non-performing Assets.

          Non-performing assets consist of nonaccrual loans, foreclosed assets, and loans that are 90 days or more past due but are still accruing interest. The accrual of interest on non-accrual loans is discontinued when, in management’s opinion, the borrower may be unable to meet payments as they become due. For the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, had non-accrual loans performed as agreed, approximately $547,000, $70,000 and $2,000, respectively, would have accrued in additional interest.

38


          At December 31, 2007, nonaccrual loans totaled $11,465,000. At December 31, 2006, nonaccrual loans totaled $2,628,000. At December 31, 2005, nonaccrual loans totalled $17,000.

          Table 5 provides a summary of contractually past due loans for the most recent five years. Nonperforming loans were 2.4% of total loans at December 31, 2007 compared to 0.6% of total loans at December 31, 2006 and less than 0.01% at December 31, 2005. Management believes the current list of past due loans are collectible and does not anticipate significant losses. Nonperforming loans at December 31, 2007 include four Real Estate loans, compared to one real Estate loan at December 31, 2006. The Real Estate loan at year end 2006 has since paid off.

Total noninterest income for the year ended December 31, 2007 was $4,300,000 compared to $6,259,000 at December 31, 2006 and $3,841,000 at December 31, 2005. After a gain on sale of other equity securities of $1,352,000 related to the sale of Pacific Coast Banker’s Bank stock and a gain of $756,000 on sale of other real estate owned in 2006, service charges and credit card fees represented the major portion of noninterest income. In 2005, the Bank recognized impairment charges of $116,000, representing the other than temporary impaired value of one security investment. The principal source of Other Income was Tax Free Income on Officers’ Life Insurance, which was $364,000, $304,000 and $310,000 in the years 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively, which reflected an increased investment in this insurance.

          Total noninterest expenses for the year ended December 31, 2007 were $23,182,000 compared to $21,760,000 for the year ended December 31, 2006, an increase of $1,347,000 or 6.2%. For the year ended December 31, 2006, they were $21,760,000, an increase of $1,505,000 or 7.4%, compared to $20,255,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005. Increases in noninterest expenses in 2007 and 2006 were partly attributable to the acquisition of Sequoia National Bank in the second quarter of 2005. Salaries and employee benefits were $12,778,000 in 2007, $12,300,000 in 2006 and $11,344,000 in 2005. Salaries and employee benefits represent over 50% of noninterest expense. They increased by 3.9% in 2007 over 2006. In 2006 they were 8.4% over 2005. Occupancy expense increases resulted from the acquisition of the two Sequoia National Bank branches, which affected eight months in 2005, and a full year in 2006 and 2007. Continued expenses related to compliance with various Acts, such as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the Patriot Act, and the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, are reflected in the level of expenses in professional fees. Advertising expense continued to increase from $710,000 in 2005 to $770,000 in 2006 and $942,000 in 2007. This reflects greater advertising in the media, particularly the addition of TV advertising in 2007. All other expense declined $261,000 between 2005 and 2006. The principal item was acquisition related expense, which was $339,000 in 2005, but none in 2006. This decline was offset in 2006 by net of increases in all other categories of $78,000. Between 2006 and 2007, all other expense increased by $611,000. The principal increase was $219,000 in Low Income Housing investments current year losses, while remaining categories increased by a total of $392,000.

Commercial loans increased by $16.1 million in 2007 or 24.3%, and increased by $13.1 million or 24.6% in 2006 compared to 2005. Consumer loans represent a nominal portion of total loans. They increased by $0.4 million in 2007 or 10.9%, but decreased $0.1 million in 2006 or 4.1% compared to 2005. During 2006, the Bank purchased single family loans totaling $15,147,000, of which $12,831,000 was outstanding as of December 31, 2006 and $12,136,000 as of December 31, 2007.

Investment Portfolio

          Investments at December 31, 2007 were $94,432,000, a decrease of $513,000 or 0.5% over 2006. At December 31, 2006 they were $94,945,000, a decrease of $18,518,000 or 16.3% over 2005. The decrease in investments in 2006 as compared to 2005 was achieved primarily through the sale of approximately $20,984,000 of investment securities during the fourth quarter of 2006. These proceeds were used to repay short term borrowings and to fund part of the increase in loans. Federal Home Loan Bank advances funded the remainder of the loan increase, and helped offset the decrease in deposits.

          Available funds are first used to fund Loans, then Investments, and the remainder is sold as Federal Funds. The primary source of funds is the deposit base. If more funds are needed, maturities from the Investment Portfolio may be used, as well as sales and calls, which accounts for the volume variances in Investments. The Bank’s investment portfolio is concentrated in U. S. Government Agencies and in obligations of States and their political subdivisions. The Bank believes this provides for an appropriate liquidity level.

Deposits

          The increase in average earning assets in 2007 was funded by increases in average deposits and from the Federal Home Loan Bank advances. During 2007, average deposits were $509,496,000, an increase of $18,916,000, or 3.9% over 2006. During 2006, average deposits were $490,580,000, an increase of $23,459,000, or 5.0% over 2005. In 2007, average interest-bearing deposits were $385,730,000, an increase of $17,107,000, or 4.6% over 2006. In 2006, average interest-bearing deposits were $368,623,000, an increase of $17,833,000, or 5.1% over 2005.

          The prime lending rate rose from 5.25% at the beginning of 2005 to 7.25% at the end of 2005 and 8.25% at the end of 2006. The rate did not change until September 18, 2007, when it dropped to 7.75%, followed by a decrease to 7.50% on October 31, 2007 and 7.25% on December 11, 2007. Time deposits lagged the prime rate changes because their rates changed only as certificates matured or new certificates were issued. Thus, interest-bearing demand costs averaged 0.3% in 2005, 0.5% in 2006 and 0.7% in 2007. Money market deposit costs averaged 1.7% in 2005, 2.9% in 2006 and 3.4% in 2007. Savings rates averaged 0.3% in 2005, and 0.5% in 2006 and 2007. Finally, average interest on time certificates of deposit of $100,000 or more was 2.7% in 2005, 4.0% in 2006 and 4.9% in 2007. On certificates under $100,000, average rates were 2.5% in 2005, 3.1% in 2006 amd 3.7% in 2007.

Capital

          At December 31, 2007, shareholders’ equity of the Company was $66,545,000, an increase of $4,482,000 or 7.2% over 2006; at December 31, 2006, shareholders’ equity of the Company was $62,063,000, an increase of $6,820,000 or 12.3% over 2005. The increases were primarily attributable to retention of net income after payment of cash dividends of $1,720,000 in 2007, $1,633,000 in 2006, and $1,542,000 in 2005.

44


          In 1989, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) established risk-based capital guidelines requiring banks to maintain certain ratios of “qualifying capital” to “risk-weighted assets”. Under the guidelines, qualifying capital is classified into two tiers, referred to as Tier 1 (core) and Tier 2 (supplementary) capital. Currently, the Company’s Tier 1 capital consists of common shareholders’ equity, though other instruments such as certain types of preferred stock can also be included in Tier 1 capital. Tier 2 capital consists of eligible reserves for possible loan losses and qualifying subordinated notes and debentures. Total capital is the sum of Tier 1 plus Tier 2 capital. Risk-weighted assets are calculated by applying risk percentages specified by the FDIC to categories of both balance sheet assets and off-balance sheet obligations.

          At year-end 1990, the FDIC also adopted a leverage ratio requirement. This ratio supplements the risk-based capital ratios and is defined as Tier 1 capital divided by quarterly average assets during the reporting period. This requirement established a minimum leverage ratio of 3.0% for the highest rated banks and ratios of 100 to 200 basis points higher for most other banks. Furthermore, in 1993, the FDIC began assessing risk-based deposit insurance assessments based on financial institutions’ capital resources and “management strength”, as mandated by the FDIC Improvement Act of 1991. To qualify for the lowest insurance premiums as indicated in the following table, “well-capitalized” financial institutions must maintain risk-based Tier 1 and total capital ratios of at least 6.0% and 10.0% respectively. “Well-capitalized” financial institutions must also maintain a leverage ratio equal to or exceeding 5.0%.

The following table shows the risk-based capital ratios and the leverage ratios at December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005 for the Bank.

Liquidity

          The Company’s primary source of liquidity on a stand-alone basis is dividends from the Bank. The payment of dividends by the Bank is subject to regulatory restrictions. Liquidity is a measure of the Company’s ability to convert assets into cash with minimum loss. Liquidity consists of cash and due from other banks accounts, including time deposits, federal funds sold, and Securities Available-for-Sale. The Company’s policy is to maintain a liquidity ratio of 10% or greater of total assets. As of December 31, 2007, the Company’s primary liquidity was 17.10%, compared to 20.98% in 2006 and 26.14% in 2005. During the fourth quarter of 2006, management of the Bank sold investment securities and used the sale proceeds to fund loan originations. This caused a significant decrease in the liquidity ratio for 2006. Total Liquid Assets were $110,182,000 in 2007, $121,967,000 in 2006, and $148,761,000 in 2005. The objective of liquidity management is to ensure that the Company has funds available to meet all present and future financial obligations and to take advantage of business opportunities as they occur. Financial obligations arise from withdrawals of deposits, repayment on maturity of purchased funds, extension of loans or other forms of credit, payment of operating expenses and payments of dividends.

          Core deposits, which consist of all deposits other than time deposits, have provided the Company with a sizable source of relatively stable low-cost funds. The Company’s average core deposits funded 61.6% of average total assets of $598,467,000 for the year ended December 31, 2007, 62.3% of average total assets of $575,116,000 for the year ended December 31, 2006, and 64.8% of average total assets of $529,741,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005.

          As of December 31, 2007, the Company had contractual obligations and other commercial commitments totaling approximately $221,594,000. The following table sets forth the Company’s contractual obligations and other commercial commitments as of December 31, 2007. These obligations and commitments will be funded primarily by loan repayments and the Company’s liquidity sources, such as cash and due from other banks, federal funds sold, securities available for sale, as well as time deposits.

          The largest component of the Company’s earnings is net interest income, which can fluctuate widely when significant interest rate movements occur. The prime lending rate rose from 5.25% at the beginning of 2005 to 7.25% at the end of 2005 and 8.25% at the end of 2006. The rate decreased to 7.25% at the end of 2007. The Company’s management is responsible for minimizing the Bank’s exposure to interest rate risk and assuring an adequate level of liquidity. This is accomplished by developing objectives, goals and strategies designed to enhance profitability and performance.

          Ongoing management of the Company’s interest rate sensitivity limits interest rate risk by controlling the mix and maturity of assets and liabilities. Management regularly reviews the Company’s position and evaluates alternative sources and uses of funds as well as changes in external factors. Various methods are used to achieve and maintain the desired rate sensitivity position including the sale or purchase of assets and product pricing.

          In order to ensure that sufficient funds are available for loan growth and deposit withdrawals, as well as to provide for general needs, the Company must maintain an adequate level of liquidity. Asset liquidity comes from the Company’s ability to convert short-term investments into cash and from the maturity and repayment of loans and investment securities.

Liability liquidity is provided by the Company’s ability to attract deposits. The primary source of liability liquidity is the Bank’s customer base, which provides core deposit growth. The overall liquidity position of the Company is closely monitored and evaluated regularly. The Company has federal fund borrowing facilities for a total of $70,000,000, a Federal Home Loan Bank line of credit of up to 25% of total assets, and a Federal Reserve Bank facility. Management believes the Company’s liquidity sources at December 31, 2007 are adequate to meet its operating needs in 2008 and into the foreseeable future.

Effect of Changing Prices

          The results of operations and financial conditions presented in this report are based on historical cost information and are not adjusted for the effects of inflation.

          Since the assets and liabilities of banks are primarily monetary in nature (payable in fixed, determinable amounts), the performance of the Company is affected more by changes in interest rates than by inflation. Interest rates generally increase as the rate of inflation increases, but the magnitude of the change in rates may not be the same.

          The effect of inflation on banks is normally not as significant as its influence on those businesses that have large investments in plant and inventories. During periods of high inflation, there are normally corresponding increases in the money supply, and banks will normally experience above average growth in assets, loans and deposits. Also, increases in the price of goods and services will result in increased operating expenses.

          The following table includes key ratios, including returns on average assets and equity.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Risk

          Closely related to the concept of liquidity is the concept of interest rate sensitivity (i. e., the extent to which assets and liabilities are sensitive to changes in interest rates). Interest rate sensitivity is often measured by the extent to which mismatches or “gaps” occur in the repricing of assets and liabilities within a given time period. A gap analysis is one method used to quantify such mismatches. A “positive” gap results when the amount of earning assets repricing within a given time period exceeds the amount of interest-bearing liabilities repricing within that time period. A “negative” gap results when the amount of interest-bearing liabilities repricing within a given time period exceeds the amount of earning assets repricing within such time period.

          In general, a financial institution with a positive gap in relevant time periods will benefit from an increase in market interest rates and will experience erosion in net interest income if such rates fall. Likewise, a financial institution with a negative gap in relevant time periods will normally benefit from a decrease in market interest rates and will be adversely affected by an increase in rates. By maintaining a balanced interest rate sensitivity position, where interest sensitive assets roughly equal interest sensitive liabilities in relevant time periods, interest rate risk can be limited.

A gap analysis utilizes management estimates as to when individual categories of interest-sensitive assets and liabilities will reprice, and assumes that assets and liabilities assigned to the same repricing period will reprice at the same time and in the same amount within each time period reported. A gap analysis does not account for the fact that repricing of assets and liabilities can be discretionary and subject to competitive and other pressures.

48


Because of the limitations in the gap analysis discussed above, the Company believes that interest sensitivity modeling more accurately reflects the effects and exposure to changes in interest rates, and will no longer use the Gap Analysis approach.

Management uses an asset/liability model that considers the relative sensitivities of the balance sheet, including the effect of interest rate caps on adjustable rate mortgages and the relatively stable aspects of core deposits. As such, management can model a net interest income simulation that is designed to address the probability of interest rate changes and behavioral response of the balance sheet to those changes. Market Value of Portfolio Equity represents the fair value of the net present value of assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet items. The starting point (or “base case”) for the following table is the Company’s net portfolio at December 31, 2007, using current discount rates, and an estimate of net interest income for 2008 assuming that both interest rates and the Company’s interest-sensitive assets and liabilities remain at December 31, 2007 levels.

The “rate shock” information in the table shows estimates of net portfolio value at December 31, 2007 and net interest income for 2008 assuming fluctuations or “rate shocks” of minus 100 and 200 basis points and plus 100 and 200 basis points. Rate shocks assume that current interest rates change immediately. The information set forth in the following table is based on significant estimates and assumptions, and constitutes a forward-looking statement within the meaning of that term set forth in Rule 175 under the Securities Act of 1933 and Rule 3b-6(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
FNB Bancorp

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of FNB Bancorp and subsidiary, (the Company) as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 and the related statements of earnings, changes in stockholders’ equity and comprehensive income and cash flows for each of the years in the three year period ended December 31, 2007. We have also audited FNB Bancorp’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). FNB Bancorp’s management is responsible for these financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. An audit of internal control over financial reporting includes obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of FNB Bancorp and subsidiary as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 and the results of its operations and cash flows for each of the three years in the three year period ended December 31, 2007 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion FNB Bancorp maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the COSO.

As discussed in Notes 1 and 16 to the financial statements, effective January 1, 2006, the Company changed its method of accounting for share-based payment arrangements to conform to Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123(R), “Share–Based Payments”.

The Company and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

FNB Bancorp (the Company) is a bank holding company registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of California on February 28, 2001. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of FNB Bancorp and its wholly owned subsidiary, First National Bank of Northern California (the Bank). The Bank provides traditional banking services in San Mateo and San Francisco counties.

 

 

 

The Bank and the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization dated November 1, 2001 (the Plan of Reorganization), and the shareholders of the Bank approved the Plan of Reorganization at a Special Meeting of the Shareholders of the Bank held on February 27, 2002. The Plan of Reorganization was consummated on March 15, 2002. Each outstanding share of the common stock, par value $1.25 per share, of the Bank (other than any shares as to which dissenters’ rights of appraisal have been properly exercised) was converted into one share of the no par common stock of the Company, and the former holders of Bank common stock became the holders of all of the Company common stock. The change in capital structure has been included for all periods presented.

 

 

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. For the Bank, the significant accounting estimate is the allowance for loan losses (note 1f). A summary of the significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements follows.


 

 

 

 

(a)

Basis of Presentation

 

 

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

 

 

 

 

(b)

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

 

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from banks, and federal funds sold. Generally, federal funds are sold for one-day periods. The cash equivalents are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and present insignificant risk of changes in value due to original maturity dates of 90 days or less. Included in cash and cash equivalents are amounts restricted for the Federal Reserve requirement of approximately $791,000 and $1,219,000 at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

(c)

Investment Securities

 

 

Investment securities consist of U.S. Treasury securities, U.S. agency securities, obligations of states and political subdivisions, obligations of U.S. corporations, mortgage-backed securities and other securities. At the time of purchase of a security, the Company designates the security as held-to-maturity or available-for-sale, based on its investment objectives, operational needs, and intent to hold. The Company does not purchase securities with the intent to engage in trading activity. Held to maturity securities are recorded at amortized cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums or accretion of discounts. The Company did not have any investments in the held-to-maturity portfolio at December 31, 2007 or 2006. Available-for-sale securities are recorded at fair value with unrealized holding gains or losses, net of the related tax effect, reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity until realized.

 

 

 

 

 

A decline in the market value of any available-for-sale or held-to-maturity security below cost that is deemed other than temporary results in a charge to earnings and the corresponding establishment of a new cost basis for the security. Amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts on debt securities are included in interest income over the life of the related held-to-maturity or available-for-sale security using the effective interest method. Dividend and interest income are recognized when earned. Realized gains and losses for securities classified as available-for-sale and held-to-maturity are included in earnings and are derived using the specific identification method for determining the cost of securities sold.

 

 

 

 

(d)

Derivatives

 

 

All derivatives are recognized as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and measured at fair value. The Company did not hold any derivatives at December 31, 2007 and 2006.

(e)

Loans

 

 

Loans are reported at the principal amount outstanding, net of deferred loan fees and the allowance for loan losses. A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement, including scheduled interest payments. For a loan that has been restructured, the contractual terms of the loan agreement refer to the contractual terms specified by the original loan agreement, not the contractual terms specified by the restructuring agreement.

 

 

 

 

 

An impaired loan is measured based upon the present value of future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective rate, the loan’s observable market price, or the fair value of collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. Interest on impaired loans is recognized on a cash basis. If the measurement of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan, an impairment is recognized by a charge to the allowance for loan losses.

 

 

 

 

 

Unearned discount on installment loans is recognized as income over the terms of the loans by the interest method. Interest on other loans is calculated by using the simple interest method on the daily balance of the principal amount outstanding.

 

 

 

 

 

Loan fees net of certain direct costs of origination, which represent an adjustment to interest yield, are deferred and amortized over the contractual term of the loan using the interest method.

 

 

 

 

 

Loans on which the accrual of interest has been discontinued are designated as nonaccrual loans. Accrual of interest on loans is discontinued either when reasonable doubt exists as to the full and timely collection of interest or principal when a loan becomes contractually past due by 90 days or more with respect to interest or principal. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, all interest previously accrued but not collected is reversed against current period interest income. Interest accruals are resumed on such loans only when they are brought fully current with respect to interest and principal and when, in the judgment of management, the loans are estimated to be fully collectible as to both principal and interest. Restructured loans are loans on which concessions in terms have been granted because of the borrowers’ financial difficulties. Interest is generally accrued on such loans in accordance with the new terms. Net interest written off in 2007 was not considered material (see Allowance for Loan Losses discussed in the Management Discussion and Analysis section).

(f)

Allowance for Loan Losses

 

 

The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged to expense. Loans are charged off against the allowance for loan losses when management believes that the collectibility of the principal is unlikely. The allowance is an amount that management believes will be adequate to absorb probable losses inherent in existing loans, standby letters of credit, overdrafts, and commitments to extend credit based on evaluations of collectibility and prior loss experience. The evaluations take into consideration such factors as changes in the nature and volume of the portfolio, overall portfolio quality, loan concentrations, specific problem loans and current and anticipated economic conditions that may affect the borrowers’ ability to pay. While management uses these evaluations to determine the level of the allowance for loan losses, future provisions may be necessary based on changes in the factors used in the evaluations. Material estimates relating to the determination of the allowance for loan losses are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term. Management believes that the allowance for loan losses is adequate. While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, future additions to the allowance may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions. In addition, the banking regulators, as an integral part of its examination process, periodically review the Bank’s allowance for loan losses. The banking regulators may require the Bank to recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgment about information available to them at the time of their examination.

 

 

 

 

(g)

Premises and Equipment

 

 

Premises and equipment are reported at cost less accumulated depreciation using the straight-line method over the estimated service lives of related assets ranging from 3 to 50 years original life. Those set up for 50 years were before 1986, when the IRS rules shortened the allowable lives for assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lives of the respective leases or the service lives of the improvements, whichever is shorter.

 

 

 

 

(h)

Cash Dividends

 

 

The Company’s ability to pay cash dividends is subject to restrictions set forth in the California General Corporation Law. Funds for payment of any cash dividends by the Company would be obtained from its investments as well as dividends and/or management fees from First National Bank. First National Bank’s ability to pay cash dividends is subject to restrictions imposed under the National Bank Act and regulations promulgated by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency.

(i)

Stock Dividend

 

 

On December 5, 2007, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had declared a five percent (5%) stock dividend resulting in approximately 143,227 shares, payable at the rate of one share of Common Stock for every twenty (20) shares of Common Stock owned. The stock dividend was paid on December 14, 2007, to shareholders of record on November 30, 2007. The earnings per share data presented have been adjusted for this stock dividend.

 

 

 

 

(j)

Income Taxes

 

 

Deferred income taxes are determined using the assets and liabilities method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is recognized for tax consequences of temporary differences by applying current tax rates to differences between the financial reporting and the tax basis of existing assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are reflected at currently enacted income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes.

 

 

 

 

 

Accounting for Income Tax Uncertainties

 

 

The Company adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, on January 1, 2007. The Company had no unrecognized tax benefits which would require adjustment to the January 1, 2007 beginning balance of retained earnings. The Company had unrecognized tax benefits of $37,500 at December 31, 2007.

 

 

 

 

 

The Company recognizes interest accrued and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in tax expense. During the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 the Company believes that any penalty and interest penalties that may exist are not material and have not been accrued for.

 

 

 

 

(k)

Earnings per Share

 

 

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share reflects potential dilution from outstanding stock options, using the treasury stock method. There were 44,290 and 46,283 antidilutive shares in the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. There were no antidilutive shares in the year ended December 31, 2005.

Stock Option Plans

 

 

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment”. This Statement requires that compensation costs related to share-based payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements. Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123® “Share-Based Payment,” on a moodified basis. Measurement of the cost of stock options granted is based on the grant-date fair value of each stock option granted using the Black-Scholes valuation model. The cost is then amortized to expense on a straight-line basis over each option’s five year vesting period. The amortized expense of the stock option’s fair value has been included in salaries and employee benefits expense for the three years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005.

 

 

 

 

 

The expected term of options granted is derived from the output of the option valuation model and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U. S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant. FNB Bancorp stock has limited liquidity and limited trading activity. Volatility was calculated using historical price changes on a monthly basis over the expected life of the option.

Income Tax Credits

 

 

At December 31, 2007, the Bank had a $2,376,000 equity investment in three partnerships, which own low-income affordable housing projects that generate tax benefits in the form of federal and state housing tax credits. As a limited partner investor in these partnerships, the Company receives tax benefits in the form of tax deductions from partnership operating losses and federal and state income tax credits. The federal and state income tax credits are earned over a 10-year period as a result of the investment properties meeting certain criteria and are subject to recapture for noncompliance with such criteria over a 15-year period. The expected benefit resulting from the low-income housing tax credits is recognized in the period for which the tax benefit is recognized in the Company’s consolidated tax returns. These investments are accounted for using the effective yield method and are recorded in other assets on the balance sheet. Under the effective yield method, the Company recognizes tax credits as they are allocated and amortizes the initial cost of the investments to provide a constant effective yield over the period that tax credits are allocated to the Company. The effetive yield is the internal rate of return on the investment, based on the cost of the investment and the guaranteed tax credits allocated to the Company. Any expected residual value of the investment was excluded from the effective yield calculation. Cash received from operations of the limited partnership or sale of the properties, if any, will be included in earnings when realized or realizable.

Bank Owned Life Insurance

 

 

The Corporation purchased insurance on the lives of certain employees. The policies accumulate asset values to meet future liabilities including the payment of employee benefits such as the deferred compensation plan. Increases in the cash surrender value are recorded as other noninterest income in the consolidated statements of income. The cash surrender value of bank owned life insurance is reflected in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets in the amount of $9,617,000 and $7,267,000 at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Federal Home Loan Bank Borrowings

 

 

The Bank maintains a collateralized line of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) of San Francisco. Under this line, the Bank may borrow on a short term or a long term (over one year) basis. FHLB advances are recorded and carried at their historical cost. FHLB advances are not transferable and may contain prepayment penalties.

Recently Iissued Accounting Pronouncements

 

 

In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. (“FIN”) 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes.” This interpretation guides the accounting and reporting of income taxes where interpretation of the law is uncertain. FIN 48 prescribes a comprehensive model for the financial statement recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of income tax uncertainties with respect to positions taken or expected to be taken in income tax returns. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2006. The Company adopted this Statement on January 1, 2007. As a result of the implementation of FIN 48, it was not necessary for the Company to recognize any increase in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits. The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of the adoption of FIN 48, including estimated penalties and interest, was $35,000 and relates to the level of Enterprise Zone credits that have been claimed on filed California tax returns. The Company recognizes interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. The statute of limitations for assessment of additional taxes on income for Federal income and California franchise tax purposes are closed years prior to 2004 and 2003, respectively.

 

 

 

 

 

In September 2006, FASB issued Statement No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” This Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement supplements other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. This Statement also expands disclosures using fair value to measure assets and liabilities in interim and annual periods subsequent to the period of initial recognition. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement No. 159 The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115. Statement No. 159 establishes a fair value option that allows an entity to designate individual financial assets and liabilities as fair value option instruments. Under the fair value option, the change in unrealized gains and losses created by the change in fair value of financial instruments shall be reported in an entity’s earnings for each reporting period. Additional disclosures regarding fair value for financial assets and liabilities accounting for under the fair value option are also required. This statement is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. The Company does not expect this standard to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

 

 

 

 

 

 

In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) announced that it had revised Statement 141, Business Combinations, with 141(R). The revised Statement No. 141 was written to improve the relevance, representational faithfulness and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial reports about a business combination and its effects. This Statement establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer:


 

 

 

 

 

 

a)

Recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree

 

 

 

 

 

 

b)

Recognizes and measures the goodwill acquired in the business combination or a gain from a bargain purchase

c)

Determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination


 

 

 

 

 

 

This Statement applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company does not expect this Standard to have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

 

 

 

 

 

 

In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interest in Consolidated Financial Statements – an amendment of ARB No. 51.” Statement No. 160 clarifies reporting and disclosure requirements related to noncontrolling interest included in an entity’s consolidated financial statements. This Statement clarifies that noncontrolling interests are to be reported in the noncontrolling section of the balance sheet and requires net income to include amounts from both the parent and the noncontrolling interest. This Statement also requires the parent company to recognize a gain or loss in net income when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. This Statement is effective for fiscal years (and interim periods within those years), beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company will apply this Statement prospectively and does not expect the Statement to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Restricted Cash Balance

 

Cash and due from banks includes balances with the Federal Reserve Bank (the FRB). The Bank is required to maintain specified minimum average balances with the FRB, based primarily upon the Bank’s deposit balances.

At December 31, 2007, a total of 27 securities make up the amount of securities in an unrealized loss position for greater than 12 consecutive months. Management periodically evaluates each security in an unrealized loss position to determine if the impairment is temporary or other-than-temporary. Management has determined that no investment security is other-than-temporarily impaired. The unrealized losses are due solely to interest rate changes and the Company has the ability and intent to hold all investment securities with identified impairments resulting from interest rate changes to the earliest of forecasted recovery or the maturity of the underlying investment security.

Bank Savings Plan

 

The Bank maintains a salary deferral 401(k) plan covering substantially all employees, known as the First National Bank Savings Plan (the Plan). The Plan allows employees to make contributions to the Plan up to a maximum allowed by law and the Bank’s contribution is discretionary. The Bank’s contribution to the Plan for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005 was $600,000, $602,000, and $626,000, respectively.

Salary Continuation and Deferred Compensation Plans

 

The Bank maintains a Salary Continuation Plan for certain Bank officers. Officers participating in the Salary Continuation Plan are entitled to receive a monthly payment for a period of fifteen to twenty years upon retirement. The Company accrues such post-retirement benefits over the individual’s employment period. The Salary Continuation Plan expense for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005 was $181,000, $239,000, and $325,000, respectively. Accrued compensation payable under the salary continuation plan totaled $2,010,000 and $1,959,000 at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

The Deferred Compensation Plan allows eligible officers to defer annually their compensation up to a maximum 80% of their base salary and 100% of their cash bonus. The officer will be entitled to receive distribution upon reaching a specified age, passage of at least five years or termination of employment. As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, the related liability included in accrued expenses and other liabilities was $1,715,000 and $1,935,000, respectively.

As of December 31, 2007, the Bank had no state tax credit carryforwards for income tax purposes as these were all used during 2005. Accordingly, there is no valuation allowance as of December 31, 2007 or 2006. Additionally, management believes that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized through recovery of taxes previously paid and/or future taxable income. The Bank has net operating loss carryforwards resulting from the acquisition of Sequoia National Bank which expire from December 31, 2009 through December 31, 2020, for a total balance of $3,078,425.

In assessing the Company’s ability to realize the tax benefits of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the recorded benefits of these deductible differences.

Financial Instruments

 

The Bank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit in the form of loans or through standby letters of credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest-rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet.

 

 

 

The Bank’s exposure to credit loss is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments and is usually limited to amounts funded or drawn. The contract or notional amounts of these agreements, which are not included in the balance sheets, are an indicator of the Bank’s credit exposure. Commitments to extend credit generally carry variable interest rates and are subject to the same credit standards used in the lending process for on-balance-sheet instruments. Additionally, the Bank periodically reassesses the customer’s creditworthiness through ongoing credit reviews. The Bank generally requires collateral or other security to support commitments to extend credit. The following table provides summary information on financial institutions whose contract amounts represent credit risk as of December 31:

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Bank evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Bank upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, and income-producing commercial and residential properties.

 

 

 

 

Equity reserve and unused credit card lines are additional commitments to extend credit. Many of these customers are not expected to draw down their total lines of credit, and therefore, the total contract amount of these lines does not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

 

 

 

 

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The Bank issues both financial and performance standby letters of credit. The financial standby letters of credit are primarily to guarantee payment to third parties. As of December 31, 2007, there were $2,200,000 issued in financial standby letters of credit. The performance standby letters of credit are typically issued to municipalities as specific performance bonds. As of December 31, 2007 there were $957,000 issued in performance standby letters of credit. The terms of the guarantees will expire in 2008.

 

 

 

 

The Bank has experienced no draws on these letters of credit, and does not expect to in the future; however, should a triggering event occur, the Bank either has collateral in excess of the letters of credit or embedded agreements of recourse from the customer.

 

 

 

 

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company to estimate the fair value of financial instruments.

 

 

 

 

(a)

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

 

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash and short-term instruments approximate those assets fair values.

76


FNB BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARY

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005

 

 

 

 

(b)

Securities

 

 

Fair values for securities are based on quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments.

 

 

 

 

(c)

Loans

 

 

Fair values for variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and have no significant change in credit risk are based on carrying values. The fair values for other loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality.

 

 

 

 

(d)

Off-Balance Sheet Commitments

 

 

Fair values for the company’s off-balance-sheet lending commitments are based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the credit standing of the counterparties.

 

 

 

 

(e)

Deposit Liabilities

 

 

The fair values estimated for demand deposits (interest and noninterest checking, passbook savings, and certain types of money market accounts) are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts). Fair values for fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates for a schedule of the aggregate expected monthly maturities on time deposits.

 

 

 

 

(f)

Federal Funds Sold/Purchased

 

 

The carrying amount of federal funds sold/purchased approximates their fair values.

 

 

 

 

(g)

Federal Home Loan Bank Advances

 

 

The fair values of FHLB advances were estimated by discounting future cash flows related to these financial instruments using current market rates for financial instruments with similar characteristics.

 

 

 

 

(h)

Bank Owned Life Insurance

 

 

The carrying amount is the cash surrender value for all policies.

The carrying amounts of loans include $11,465,000 and $2,628,000 of nonaccrual loans (loans that are not accruing interest) at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Management has determined that primarily because of the uncertainty of predicting an observable market interest rate, excessive amounts of time and money would be incurred to estimate the fair values of nonperforming loans. As such, these loans are recorded at their carrying amount in the estimated fair value columns. The following aggregate information is provided at December 31, about the contractual provisions of these loans:

Significant Group Concentrations of Credit Risk

 

 

 

Most of the Bank’s business activity is with customers located within San Mateo and San Francisco counties. Generally, the loans are secured by assets of the borrowers. The loans are expected to be repaid from cash flows or proceeds from the sale of selected assets of the borrowers. The Bank does not have significant concentrations of loans to any one industry.

 

 

 

The distribution of commitments to extend credit approximates the distribution of loans outstanding. Commercial and standby letters of credit were granted primarily to commercial borrowers. The contractual amounts of credit-related financial instruments such as commitments to extend credit, credit-card arrangements, and letters of credit represent the amounts of potential accounting loss should the contract be fully drawn upon, the customer default, and the value of any existing collateral become worthless.

 

 

(16)

Regulatory matters

 

The Company, as a bank holding company, is subject to regulation by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company’s and the Bank’s assets, liabilities and certain off balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.

79


FNB BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARY

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005

 

 

 

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total and Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier 1 capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). Management believes, as of December 31, 2007, that the Company and the Bank have met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

 

 

 

As of December 31, 2007, the most recent notification from the regulatory agencies categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s categories.

(Stock Option Plans

 

 

 

In 1997, the Company adopted an incentive employee stock option plan, known as the 1997 FNB Bancorp Plan. In 2002, the Company adopted an incentive employee option plan known as the 2002 FNB Bancorp Plan. The Plans allow the Company to grant options to employees of up to 378,600 shares, which includes the effect of stock dividends of common stock. Options currently outstanding become exercisable in one to five years from the grant date, based on a vesting schedule of 20% per year and expire 10 years after the grant date. The options exercise price is the fair value of the options at the grant date.

 

 

 

The amount of compensation expense for options recorded in the years ended December 31, 2007, December 31 2006 and December 31, 2005 was $68,000, $39,000 and $10,000, respectively. The income tax benefit recognized in the income statements for these amounts was under $3,000 for 2007, but under $1,000 for 2006 and 2005.

 

 

 

The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the year ended December 31, 2007 was $62,000 under the 2002 Plan and $96,000 under the 1997 Plan.

December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005

 

 

 

The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the year ended December 31, 2006 was $60,000 under the 2002 Plan and $203,000 under the 1997 Plan.

 

 

 

The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the year ended December 31, 2005 was $12,000 under the 2002 Plan and $63,000 under the 1997 Plan.

 

 

 

The amount of total unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested options at December 31, 2007 was $304,000, and the weighted average period it will be amortized over is 2.4 years.

 

 

 

The fair value of each option granted is estimated on the date of grant using the fair value method with the following weighted average assumptions used for grants in 2007; dividend yield of 1.97% for the year; risk-free interest rate of 5.11%; expected volatility of 11.32%; expected life of 6.4 years; and weighted average fair value of $5.82. The assumptions for grants in 2006; dividend yield of 6.66% for the year; risk-free interest rate of 5.19%; expected volatility of 10%; expected life of 6.5 years; and weighted average fair value of $1.50. The assumptions used for grants in 2005; dividend yield of 6.98% for the year; risk-free interest rate of 3.91%; expected volatility of 10%; expected life of 5.0 years; and weighted average fair value of $0.75.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

Not applicable.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

          Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in reports filed by the Company under the Exchange Act, such as this Annual Report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Disclosure controls and procedures are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

          Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures and Internal Control over Financial Reporting. The Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2007. Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective. There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2007 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

          Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. As defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act, internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, a company’s principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by a company’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. It includes those policies and procedures that:

 

 

 

 

a)

Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of a company;

 

 

 

 

b)

Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of a company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and the board of directors of the company, and

 

 

 

 

c)

Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of a company’s assets that could have a material effect on its financial statements.

87


Because of the inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

The Company’s management has used the criteria established in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) to evaluate the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Management has selected the COSO framework for its evaluation as it is a control framework recognized by the SEC and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, that is free from bias, permits reasonably consistent qualitative and quantitative measurement of the Company’s internal controls, is sufficiently complete so that relevant controls are not omitted and is relevant to an evaluation of internal controls over financial reporting.

Based on our assessment, management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting, based on criteria established in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework” issued by COSO was effective as of December 31, 2007.

Moss Adams LLP, the registered public accounting firm that audited the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report under Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data,” has issued a report with respect to the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. This report appears as part of the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm under said Item 8 of this Annual Report and is incorporated here by reference.

Date: March 12, 2008

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

The Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.
