FIRST MID-ILLINOIS BANCSHARES, INC. Dated: April 23, 2003 By: /s/ William S. Rowland President and Chief Executive Officer EXHIBIT INDEX Exhibit Number Description 99 Quarterly shareholder report issued April 23, 2003 Exhibit 99 April 23, 2003 Quarterly Report to the Owners, First Mid-Illinois Bancshares, Inc. First Mid-Illinois Bancshares, Inc. had a successful first quarter with diluted earnings per share increasing to $.73 per share as compared to $.59 per share for the first quarter of 2002, a 24 percent increase. Net income increased to $2,362,000 as compared to $2,009,000 in the first quarter of 2002. Non-interest income increased to $3,430,000 as compared to $2,323,000 for the first quarter of 2002. The increase was the result of several factors. Historical lows in long-term interest rates led to increased mortgage loan originations and sales. Mortgage banking revenues were $549,000 as compared to $326,000 in the first quarter of 2002. In addition, increased insurance commissions, gains recognized on the sale of securities, and growth in deposit service charges due to increases in deposit balances and overdraft fees also contributed to the growth in non-interest income. Net interest income before the provision for loan losses was $6,480,000 as compared to $6,414,000 for the first quarter of 2002. Loan balances have increased by $7 million since December 31, 2002 and by $35 million since March 31, 2002. The loan growth has been primarily in commercial real estate and operating loans. Residential real estate loans decreased as customers refinanced home mortgages with long-term secondary-market loans resulting in increased liquidity. Deposit balances increased by $2 million since December 31, 2002 and by $64 million since March 31, 2002 with growth in checking accounts and certificates of deposit. The Company increased the provision for loan losses to $250,000 as compared with $125,000 in 2002 with net charge-offs of $132,000 as compared with $76,000 for the first quarter of 2002. Non-interest expenses of $6,066,000 have increased when compared to the first quarter of 2002 primarily as a result of the increased costs associated with expanding our financial services franchise through the acquisition and operations of The Checkley Agency, Inc., in January 2002, and the addition of new banking centers in Maryville and Champaign in November 2002. First quarter results for the new banking centers have been promising, with solid growth in loans and deposits. We expect that each banking center will provide a positive contribution to earnings within the first year of operation. Our 2003 annual meeting of shareholders will be held at 4:00 p.m. on May 28, 2003 in the main lobby of First Mid-Illinois Bank & Trust, N.A., 1515 Charleston Avenue, Mattoon, Illinois. All shareholders are invited to attend. On behalf of the Board, management and entire staff of the Company, I thank you for your continued support and look forward to visiting with as many of you as possible at the annual meeting.
