USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
The
Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) has adopted Regulation G, which
applies to all public disclosures, including earnings releases, made by
registered companies that contain “non-GAAP financial measures.” GAAP
is generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of
America. Under Regulation G, companies making disclosures containing
non-GAAP financial measures must also disclose, along with each non-GAAP
financial measure, certain additional information, including a reconciliation of
the non-GAAP financial measure to the closest comparable GAAP financial measure
and a statement of the company’s reasons for utilizing the non-GAAP financial
measure as part of its financial disclosures. At the same time that
the SEC issued Regulation G, it also made amendments to Item 10 of Regulation
S-K, requiring companies to make the same types of supplemental disclosures
whenever they include non-GAAP financial measures in their filings with the
SEC. The SEC has exempted from the definition of “non-GAAP financial
measures” certain specific types of commonly used financial measures that are
not based on GAAP. When these exempted measures are included in
public disclosures or SEC filings, supplemental information is not
required. The following measures used in this Report which have not
been specifically exempted by the SEC may nevertheless constitute “non-GAAP
financial measures” within the meaning of the SEC’s new rules, although we are
unable to state with certainty that the SEC would so regard them.
Tax-Equivalent Net Interest Income
and Net Interest Margin: Net interest income, as a component
of the tabular presentation by financial institutions of Selected Financial
Information regarding their recently completed operations, is commonly presented
on a tax-equivalent basis. That is, to the extent that some component
of the institution’s net interest income will be exempt from taxation (e.g., was
received by the institution as a result of its holdings of state or municipal
obligations), an amount equal to the tax benefit derived from that component is
added back to the net interest income total. This adjustment is
considered helpful in comparing one financial institution’s net interest income
(pre-tax) to that of another institution, as each will have a different
proportion of tax-exempt items in their portfolios. Moreover, net
interest income is itself a component of a second financial measure commonly
used by financial institutions, net interest margin, which is the ratio of net
interest income to average earning assets. For purposes of this
measure as well, tax-equivalent net interest income is generally used by
financial institutions, again to provide a better basis of comparison from
institution to institution. We follow these practices.
The Efficiency
Ratio: Financial institutions often use an “efficiency ratio”
as a measure of expense control. The efficiency ratio typically is
defined as noninterest expense divided by taxable equivalent net interest income
plus noninterest income. As in the case of net interest income,
generally, net interest income as utilized in calculating the efficiency ratio
is typically expressed on a tax-equivalent basis. Moreover, most
financial institutions, in calculating the efficiency ratio, also adjust both
noninterest expense and noninterest income to exclude from these items (as
calculated under GAAP) certain component elements, such as
non-recurring charges, and other real estate expense (deducted from noninterest
expense) and securities transactions and other non-recurring income items
(excluded from noninterest income). We follow these
practices.
PART
I
General
TrustCo
Bank Corp NY (“TrustCo” or the “Company”) is a savings and loan holding company
having its principal place of business at 5 Sarnowski Drive, Glenville, New York
12302. TrustCo was incorporated under the laws of New York in 1981 to acquire
all of the outstanding stock of Trustco Bank, National Association, formerly
known as Trustco Bank New York, and prior to that, The Schenectady Trust
Company. On July 28, 2000 TrustCo acquired Landmark Financial Corp. and its
subsidiary Landmark Community Bank, in Canajoharie, New York, a federal savings
bank with assets of approximately $26 million. Landmark Community Bank was
subsequently renamed Trustco Savings Bank, and, on November 15, 2002, Trustco
Savings Bank and Trustco Bank, National Association merged under the charter of
Trustco Savings Bank. In that merger, the resulting bank changed its name to
Trustco Bank (sometimes referred to in this report as the “Bank”).
Through
policy and practice, TrustCo continues to emphasize that it is an equal
opportunity employer. There were 670 full-time equivalent employees of TrustCo
at year-end 2007. TrustCo had 14,497 shareholders of record as of December 31,
2007 (the last business day in 2007) and the closing price of the TrustCo common
stock on that date was $9.92.
Subsidiaries
Trustco
Bank
Trustco
Bank is a federal savings bank engaged in providing general banking services to
individuals, partnerships, and corporations. The Bank operates 108 automatic
teller machines and 107 banking offices in Albany, Columbia, Dutchess, Greene,
Orange, Rensselaer, Rockland, Saratoga, Schenectady, Schoharie, Ulster, Warren,
Washington and Westchester counties of New York, Hillsborough, Lake, Orange,
Polk, Sarasota, Seminole and Volusia counties in Florida, Bennington County in
Vermont, Berkshire County in Massachusetts and Bergen County in New Jersey. The
largest part of such business consists of accepting deposits and making loans
and investments. The Bank provides a wide range of both personal and business
banking services. The Bank is supervised and regulated by the federal Office of
Thrift Supervision (“OTS”) and is a member of the Federal Reserve System. Its
deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) to
the extent permitted by law. The Bank established an operating subsidiary,
Trustco Vermont Investment Company, in September 2003 for the purposes of
holding all of the shares of the capital stock of the Bank’s existing
subsidiary, Trustco Realty Corp., that were held by the Bank and of acquiring
and managing other investments. Trustco Realty Corp. holds certain mortgage
assets that are serviced by the Bank. The Bank accounted for substantially all
of TrustCo’s 2007 consolidated net income and average assets.
The trust
department of the Bank serves as executor of estates and trustee of personal
trusts, provides asset and wealth management services, provides estate planning
and related advice, provides custodial services, and acts as trustee for various
types of employee benefit plans and corporate pension and profit sharing trusts.
The aggregate market value of the assets under trust, custody, or management of
the trust department of the Bank was approximately $916 million as of December
31, 2007.
The daily
operations of the Bank remain the responsibility of its officers, subject to the
oversight of its Board of Directors and overall supervision by TrustCo. The
accounts of the Bank are included in TrustCo's consolidated financial
statements.
ORE
Subsidiary
In 1993,
TrustCo created ORE Subsidiary Corp., a New York corporation, to hold and manage
certain foreclosed properties acquired by the Bank. The accounts of this
subsidiary are included in TrustCo's consolidated financial
statements.
Competition
TrustCo
faces strong competition in its market areas, both in attracting deposits and
making loans. The Company’s most direct competition for deposits, historically,
has come from commercial banks, savings associations and credit unions that are
located or have branches in the Bank’s market areas. The competition ranges from
other locally based commercial banks, savings banks and credit unions to branch
offices of the largest financial institutions in the United States. In its
principal market areas the Capital District area of New York State and Central
Florida, TrustCo's principal competitors are local operations of super regional
banks, branch offices of money center banks, and locally based commercial and
savings banks. The Bank is the largest depository institution headquartered in
the Capital District area of New York State. The Company also faces competition
for deposits from national brokerage houses, short-term money market funds, and
other corporate and government securities funds.
Factors
affecting the acquisition of deposits include pricing, office locations and
hours of operation, the variety of deposit accounts offered, and the quality of
customer service provided. Competition for loans has been especially keen during
the last several years. Commercial banks, thrift institutions, traditional
mortgage brokers affiliated with local offices and nationally franchised real
estate brokers are all active and aggressive competitors. The Company competes
in this environment by providing a full range of financial services based on a
tradition of financial strength and integrity dating from its inception. The
Company competes for loans, principally through the interest rates and loan fees
it charges, and the efficiency and quality of services it provides to
borrowers.
Supervision and
Regulation
Banking
is a highly regulated industry, with numerous federal and state laws and
regulations governing the organization and operation of banks and their
affiliates. As a savings and loan holding company registered under the Home
Owners’ Loan Act of 1934 (the "HOLA"), TrustCo is regulated and examined by the
OTS. The HOLA requires TrustCo to obtain prior OTS approval for acquisitions and
restricts the business operations permitted to TrustCo. The OTS is also the
Bank’s primary federal regulator and supervises and examines the
Bank. Because the FDIC provides deposit insurance to the Bank, the
Bank is also subject to its supervision and regulation even though the FDIC is
not the Bank’s primary federal regulator.
Most of
TrustCo's revenues consist of cash dividends paid to TrustCo by the Bank,
payment of which is subject to various regulatory limitations. (Note 1 to the
consolidated financial statements contained in TrustCo’s Annual Report to
Shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2007 contains information
concerning restrictions on TrustCo’s ability to pay dividends and is hereby
incorporated by reference.) Compliance with the standards set forth in the OTS
rules regarding capital distribution by savings associations and savings banks
could also limit the amount of dividends that TrustCo may pay to its
shareholders. The banking industry is also affected by the monetary and fiscal
policies of the federal government, including the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System, which exerts considerable influence over the cost and
availability of funds obtained for lending and investing.
See Note
16 to the consolidated financial statements contained in TrustCo's Annual Report
to Shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2007, and the discussion under
“Federal Savings Institution Regulations – Regulatory Capital Requirements”,
which contain information concerning the Bank’s regulatory capital
requirements.
The
following summary of laws and regulations applicable to the Company and the Bank
is not intended to be a complete description of those laws and regulations or
their effects on the Company and the Bank, and it is qualified in its entirety
by reference to the particular statutory and regulatory provisions
described.
Holding
Company Activities
The
activities of savings and loan holding companies are governed by the HOLA. Since
TrustCo became a savings and loan holding company in 2002, its activities are
limited to those permissible for “multiple” savings and loan holding companies
(that is, savings and loan holding companies owning more than one savings
association subsidiary) as of March 5, 1987, activities permitted for bank
holding companies as of November 12, 1999 and activities permissible for
“financial holding companies” (which are described below). “Savings
associations” include federal savings banks such as the Bank. TrustCo must
obtain approval from the appropriate bank regulatory agencies before acquiring
control of any insured depository institution.
A savings
and loan holding company is prohibited from, directly or indirectly, acquiring
more than 5% of the voting stock of another financial institution or savings and
loan holding company, without prior written approval of the Office of Thrift
Supervision and from acquiring or retaining control of a depository institution
that is not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. In evaluating
applications by holding companies to acquire savings institutions, the Office of
Thrift Supervision considers the financial and managerial resources and future
prospects of the Company and institution involved, the effect of the acquisition
on the risk to the deposit insurance funds, the convenience and needs of the
community and competitive factors.
The
Office of Thrift Supervision may not approve any acquisition that would result
in a multiple savings and loan holding company controlling savings institutions
in more than one state, subject to two exceptions: (i) the approval of
interstate supervisory acquisitions by savings and loan holding companies and
(ii) the acquisition of a savings institution in another state if the laws of
the state of the target savings institution specifically permit such
acquisitions. The states vary in the extent to which they permit interstate
savings and loan holding company acquisitions.
Although
savings and loan holding companies are not currently subject to specific capital
requirements or specific restrictions on the payment of dividends or other
capital distributions, federal regulations do prescribe such restrictions on
subsidiary savings institutions as described below. The Bank must notify the
Office of Thrift Supervision 30 days before declaring any dividend to the
Company. In addition, the financial impact of a holding company on its
subsidiary institution is a matter that is evaluated by the Office of Thrift
Supervision and the agency has authority to order cessation of activities or
divestiture of subsidiaries deemed to pose a threat to the safety and soundness
of the institution.
Securities
Regulation and Corporate Governance
The
Company’s common stock is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission
under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and the Company is
subject to restrictions, reporting requirements and review procedures under
federal securities laws and regulations. The Company is also subject to the
rules and reporting requirements of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC, on which its
Common Stock is traded. Like other issuers of publicly traded securities, the
Company must also comply with The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 ("Sarbanes-Oxley"),
which implemented legislative reforms intended to address corporate and
accounting fraud and contains reforms of various business practices and numerous
aspects of corporate governance. For example, Sarbanes-Oxley addresses
accounting oversight and corporate governance matters, including the creation of
a five-member oversight board appointed by the Securities and Exchange
Commission to set and enforce auditing, quality control and independence
standards for accountants and have investigative and disciplinary powers;
increased responsibilities and codified requirements relating to audit
committees of public companies and how they interact with a company's public
accounting firm; the prohibition of accounting firms from providing various
types of consulting services to public clients and requiring accounting firms to
rotate partners among public client assignments every five years; expanded
disclosure of corporate operations and internal controls and certification by
chief executive officers and chief financial officers to the accuracy of
periodic reports filed with the SEC; and prohibitions on public company insiders
from trading during retirement plan "blackout" periods, restrictions on loans to
company executives and enhanced controls on and reporting of insider
trading.
Although
the Company has and will continue to incur additional expense in complying with
the provisions of Sarbanes-Oxley and the resulting regulations, management does
not expect that such compliance will have a material impact on the Company's
financial condition or results of operations.
Federal
Savings Institution Regulation
Business Activities.
Federal law and regulations govern the activities of federal savings banks such
as the Bank. These laws and regulations delineate the nature and extent of the
activities in which federal savings banks may engage. In particular, certain
lending authority for federal savings banks, e.g., commercial,
non-residential real property loans and consumer loans, is limited to a
specified percentage of the institution’s capital or assets.
Regulatory Capital
Requirements. OTS capital regulations require thrifts to satisfy three
capital ratio requirements: tangible capital, Tier 1 core (leverage)
capital, and risk-based capital. In general, an association’s tangible capital,
which must be at least 1.5% of adjusted total assets, is the sum of common
shareholders’ equity adjusted for the effects of other comprehensive income
(“OCI”), net of the adjustment to record the previously unrecognized overfunded
position of employee benefit plans (“OCI”), less goodwill and other disallowed
assets. An association’s ratio of Tier 1 core capital to adjusted total
assets (the “core capital” or “leverage” ratio) must be at least 3% for the most
highly rated associations and 4% for others. Higher capital ratios may be
required if warranted by the particular circumstances or risk profile of a given
association. Under the risk-based capital requirement, a savings association
must have total capital (core capital plus supplementary capital) equal to at
least 8% of risk-weighted assets. Tier 1 capital must represent at least
50% of total capital and consists of core capital elements, which include common
shareholders’ equity, qualifying noncumulative nonredeemable perpetual preferred
stock, and minority interests in the equity accounts of consolidated
subsidiaries, but exclude goodwill and certain other intangible assets.
Supplementary capital mainly consists of qualifying subordinated debt and
portions of allowance for loan losses.
The above
capital requirements are viewed as minimum standards by the OTS. The OTS
regulations also specify minimum requirements for a savings association to be
considered a “well-capitalized institution” as defined in the “prompt corrective
action” regulation described below. A “well-capitalized” savings association
must have a total risk-based capital ratio of 10% or greater, and a leverage
ratio of 5% or greater.
Additionally,
to qualify as a “well-capitalized institution,” a savings association’s
Tier 1 risk-based capital, defined as core capital plus supplementary
capital less portions of the association’s allowance for loan losses, must be
equal to at least 6% of risk-weighted assets. The Bank currently meets all of
the requirements of a “well-capitalized institution.”
The OTS
regulations contain prompt corrective action provisions that require certain
mandatory remedial actions and authorize certain other discretionary actions to
be taken by the OTS against a savings association that falls within specified
categories of capital deficiency. The relevant regulations establish five
categories of capital classification for this purpose, ranging from
“well-capitalized” or “adequately capitalized” through “undercapitalized,”
“significantly undercapitalized” and “critically undercapitalized.” In general,
the prompt corrective action regulations prohibit an OTS-regulated institution
from declaring any dividends, making any other capital distributions, or paying
a management fee to a controlling person, such as its parent holding company,
if, following the distribution or payment, the institution would be within any
of the three undercapitalized categories.
Insurance of Deposit
Accounts. Deposits of Trustco Bank are insured by the Deposit Insurance
Fund (“DIF”) of the FDIC. The FDIC determines insurance premiums based on a
number of factors, primarily the risk of loss that insured institutions pose to
the DIF. Recent legislation eliminated the minimum 1.25% reserve ratio for the
insurance funds, the mandatory assessments when the ratio falls below 1.25% and
the prohibition on assessing the highest quality banks when the ratio is above
1.25%. The FDIC has the ability to adjust the new insurance fund’s reserve ratio
between 1.15% and 1.5%, depending on projected losses, economic changes and
assessment rates at the end of a calendar year. The FDIC has adopted regulations
that set assessment rates that took effect at the beginning of 2007. The new
assessment rates for most banks vary between five cents and seven cents for
every $100 of deposits. A change in insurance premiums could have an adverse
effect on the operating expenses and results of operations of Trustco Bank. The
Bank cannot predict what insurance assessment rates will be in the future.
Assessment credits have been provided to institutions that paid high premiums in
the past, and Trustco Bank will have credits of approximately $1.5 million to
offset premiums in the future.
Insurance
of deposits may be terminated by the FDIC upon a finding that the institution
has engaged in unsafe or unsound practices, is in an unsafe or unsound condition
to continue operations or has violated any applicable law, regulation, rule,
order or condition imposed by the FDIC or the OTS. The Bank does not know of any
practice, condition or violation that might lead to termination of its deposit
insurance.
In
addition to the assessment for deposit insurance, institutions are required to
make payments on bonds issued in the late 1980s by the Financing Corporation to
recapitalize a predecessor deposit insurance fund.
Limitation on Capital
Distributions. Office of Thrift Supervision regulations impose
limitations upon all capital distributions by Trustco Bank, including cash
dividends, payments to repurchase its shares and payments to stockholders of
another institution in a cash-out merger. Under the regulations, an application
to and the prior approval of the Office of Thrift Supervision is required prior
to any capital distribution if the institution does not meet the criteria for
“expedited treatment” of applications under Office of Thrift Supervision
regulations (i.e.,
generally, examination ratings in the two top categories), the total capital
distributions for the calendar year exceed net income for that year plus the
amount of retained net income for the preceding two years, the institution would
be undercapitalized following the distribution or the distribution would
otherwise be contrary to a statute, regulation or agreement with Office of
Thrift Supervision. If an application is not required, the institution must
still provide prior notice to Office of Thrift Supervision of the capital
distribution if, like the Bank, it is a subsidiary of a holding company. In the
event the Bank’s capital fell below its regulatory requirements or the Office of
Thrift Supervision notified it that it was in need of more than normal
supervision, the Bank’s ability to make capital distributions could be
restricted. In addition, the Office of Thrift Supervision could prohibit a
proposed capital distribution by any institution, which would otherwise be
permitted by the regulation, if the Office of Thrift Supervision determines that
such distribution would constitute an unsafe or unsound practice.
Assessments. The Bank
is required to pay assessments to the Office of Thrift Supervision to fund the
agency’s operations. The general assessments, paid on a semi-annual basis, is
computed upon the Bank’s total assets, including consolidated subsidiaries, as
reported in the Bank’s latest quarterly thrift financial report. The assessments
paid by the Bank for the year ended December 31, 2007 totaled approximately $540
thousand.
Community Reinvestment
Act. The Community Reinvestment Act ("CRA") requires each savings
institution, as well as commercial banks and certain other lenders, to identify
the communities served by the institution's offices and to identify the types of
credit the institution is prepared to extend within those communities. The CRA
also requires the OTS to assess an institution's performance in meeting the
credit needs of its identified communities as part of its examination of the
institution and to take such assessments into consideration in reviewing
applications with respect to branches, mergers and other business combinations,
including acquisitions by savings and loan holding companies. An unsatisfactory
CRA rating may be the basis for denying such an application and community groups
have successfully protested applications on CRA grounds. In connection with its
assessment of CRA performance, the OTS assigns CRA ratings of "outstanding,"
"satisfactory," "needs to improve" or "substantial noncompliance." The Bank was
rated "satisfactory” in its last CRA examination. Institutions are evaluated
based on (i) its record of helping to meet the credit needs of its assessment
area through lending activities; (ii) its qualified investments; and (iii) the
availability and effectiveness of the institution’s system for delivering retail
banking services. An institution that is found to be deficient in its
performance in meeting its community's credit needs may be subject to
enforcement actions, including cease and desist orders and civil money
penalties.
Qualified Thrift Lender
Test. Like all OTS-regulated institutions, the Bank is required to meet a
Qualified Thrift Lender (“QTL”) test or the Internal Revenue Code’s Domestic
Building and Loan Association (“DBLA”) test to avoid certain restrictions on its
operations, including restrictions on its ability to branch interstate and the
Company’s mandatory registration as a savings and loan holding company under the
Act. A savings association satisfies the QTL test if: (i) on a monthly
average basis in at least nine months out of each twelve month period, at least
65% of a specified asset base of the savings association consists of loans to
small businesses, credit card loans, educational loans, or certain assets
related to domestic residential real estate, including residential mortgage
loans and mortgage securities; or (ii) at least 60% of the savings
association’s total assets consist of cash, U.S. government or government
agency debt or equity securities, fixed assets, or loans secured by deposits,
real property used for residential, educational, church, welfare, or health
purposes, or real property in certain urban renewal areas. To be a QTL under the
DBLA test, a savings association must meet a “business operations test” and a
“60 percent of assets test.” The business operations test requires the business
of a DBLA to consist primarily of acquiring the savings of the public and
investing in loans. An institution meets the public savings requirement when it
meets one of two conditions: (i) the institution acquires its savings accounts
in conformity with OTS rules and regulations and (ii) the general public holds
more than 75 percent of its deposits, withdrawable shares, and other
obligations. An institution meets the investing in loans requirement when more
than 75 percent of its gross income consists of interest on loans and government
obligations, and various other specified types of operating income that
financial institutions ordinarily earn. The 60 percent of assets test requires
that at least 60 percent of a DBLA's assets must consist of assets that thrifts
normally hold, except for consumer loans that are not educational loans. The
Bank is currently, and expects to remain, in compliance with these
standards.
Federal
Reserve System
Federal
Reserve Board regulations require savings institutions to maintain non-interest
bearing reserves against their transaction accounts. The reserve for transaction
accounts as of December 31, 2007 was as follows:

Gramm-Leach-Bliley
Act Privacy Requirements
The
Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 (the "GLB Act") generally provided for sweeping
financial modernization for commercial banks, savings banks, securities firms,
insurance companies, and other financial institutions operating in the United
States. Among other matters, the GLB Act established a federal right to the
confidential treatment of nonpublic personal information about consumers. These
provisions of the GLB Act require disclosure of privacy policies to consumers
and, in some circumstances, will allow consumers to prevent disclosure of
certain personal information to a nonaffiliated third party. Compliance with the
rules was mandatory starting on July 1, 2001. These rules affect how consumer
information is transmitted through diversified financial companies and conveyed
to outside vendors. Because the Company does not sell customer information or
give customer information to outside third parties or its affiliates except
under very limited circumstances (e.g., providing customer information to the
Company's data processing provider), the rules have not had a significant impact
on the Company's results of operations or financial condition.
Sarbanes-Oxley
Act of 2002
On July
30, 2002, President Bush signed into law the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the
“Sarbanes-Oxley Act”). The Sarbanes-Oxley Act’s stated goals include enhancing
corporate responsibility, increasing penalties for accounting and auditing
improprieties at publicly traded companies and protecting investors by improving
the accuracy and reliability of corporate disclosures pursuant to the securities
laws. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act generally applies to all companies that file or are
required to file periodic reports with the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”).
Among
other things, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act creates the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board as an independent body subject to SEC supervision with
responsibility for setting auditing, quality control and ethical standards for
auditors of public companies. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act also requires public
companies to make faster and more extensive financial disclosures, requires the
chief executive officer and chief financial officer of public companies to
provide signed certifications as to the accuracy and completeness of financial
information filed with the SEC, and provides enhanced criminal and civil
penalties for violations of the federal securities laws.
The
Sarbanes-Oxley Act also addresses functions and responsibilities of audit
committees of public companies. The statute makes the audit committee directly
responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the work of the
company’s outside auditor, and requires the auditor to report directly to the
audit committee. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act authorizes each audit committee to
engage independent counsel and other advisors, and requires a public company to
provide the appropriate funding, as determined by its audit committee, to pay
the company’s auditors and any advisors that its audit committee retains. The
Sarbanes-Oxley Act also requires public companies to include an internal control
report and assessment by management, along with an attestation to this report
prepared by the company’s registered public accounting firm, in their annual
reports to stockholders.
The
Company expects to incur additional expense in complying with the provisions of
the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the resulting regulations.
Other
Legislation
The USA
PATRIOT Act ("Patriot Act"), which was enacted in the aftermath of the September
11, 2001 terrorist attacks, adopted numerous provisions designed to fight
international money laundering and to block terrorist access to the U.S.
financial system. Under Title III of the Patriot Act, also known as the
International Money Laundering Abatement and Anti-Terrorism Financing Act of
2001, all financial institutions, including the Company and the Bank, are
required to take certain measures to identify their customers, prevent money
laundering, monitor certain customer transactions and report suspicious activity
to U.S. law enforcement agencies, and scrutinize or prohibit altogether certain
transactions of special concern. Financial institutions also are required to
respond to requests for information from federal banking regulatory agencies and
law enforcement agencies concerning their customers and their transactions.
Information-sharing among financial institutions concerning terrorist or money
laundering activities is encouraged by an exemption provided from the privacy
provisions of the GLB Act and other laws. Further, the effectiveness of a
financial institution in combating money laundering activities is a factor to be
considered in applications submitted by a financial institution under the Bank
Merger Act. The Company has in place a Bank Secrecy Act compliance program, and
it engages in very few transactions of any kind with foreign financial
institutions or foreign persons.
The
Company operates a wholly owned real estate investment trust (“REIT”)
subsidiary, which was formed to acquire, hold and manage real estate mortgage
assets, including, but not limited to residential mortgage loans and
mortgage-backed securities. The income earned on these assets, net of expenses,
is distributed in the form of dividends. Under current New York State tax law,
60% of the dividends received from the REIT are excluded from total taxable
income.
The
proposed 2008 New York State budget bill contains a provision that would
potentially increase the amount of state tax paid by the Company. The bill, if
enacted as proposed, would be effective for taxable years beginning on or after
January 1, 2008.
Foreign
Operations
Neither
TrustCo nor the Bank engage in any operations in foreign countries or have
outstanding loans to foreign debtors.
Statistical Information
Analysis
The
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations" are included in TrustCo's Annual Report to Shareholders for the year
ended December 31, 2007, which contains a presentation and discussion of
statistical data relating to TrustCo, is hereby incorporated by reference. This
information should not be construed to imply any conclusion on the part of the
management of TrustCo that the results, causes, or trends indicated therein will
continue in the future. The nature and effects of governmental monetary policy,
supervision and regulation, future legislation, inflation and other economic
conditions and many other factors which affect interest rates, investments,
loans, deposits, and other aspects of TrustCo's operations are extremely complex
and could make historical operations, earnings, assets, and liabilities not
indicative of what may occur in the future.
Critical Accounting
Policies
Pursuant
to recent SEC guidance, management of the Company is encouraged to evaluate and
disclose those accounting policies that are judged to be critical policies, or
those most important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition and
results of operations, and that require management’s most difficult subjective
or complex judgments. Management considers the accounting policy relating to the
allowance for loan losses to be a critical accounting policy given the inherent
subjectivity and uncertainty in estimating the levels of the allowance required
to cover the inherent risk of loss in the portfolio and the material effect that
such judgments can have on the results of operations. Included in Note 1 to the
consolidated financial statements contained in TrustCo’s Annual Report to
Shareholders is a description of this critical policy and the other significant
accounting policies that are utilized by the Company in the preparation of the
Consolidated Financial Statements.

Forward-Looking
Statements
Statements
included in the “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations” of TrustCo's Annual Report to Shareholders for the year
ended December 31, 2007 and in future filings by TrustCo with the Securities and
Exchange Commission, in TrustCo's press releases, and in oral statements made
with the approval of an authorized executive officer which are not historical or
current facts are "forward-looking statements" made pursuant to the safe harbor
provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and are
subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to
differ materially from historical earnings and those presently anticipated or
projected. TrustCo wishes to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any
such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. The
following important factors, among others, in some cases have affected and in
the future could affect TrustCo's actual results and could cause TrustCo's
actual financial performance to differ materially from that expressed in any
forward-looking statement: (i) credit risk; (ii) interest rate risk; (iii)
competition; (iv) changes in the regulatory environment; and (v) changes in
local market area and general business and economic trends. The foregoing list
should not be construed as exhaustive and the Company disclaims any obligation
to subsequently revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or
circumstances after the date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of
anticipated or unanticipated events.
These are
general risk factors affecting the Company. They are further described under
Item 1. “Business” and in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations”. Additional risks and uncertainties not
currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may
materially and adversely affect our business operations. Any of these risks
could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition or
results of operations. In such cases, you may lose all or part of your
investment.
Certain
interest rate movements may hurt earnings and asset value.
Interest
rates have in recent years hit historical low levels. However, from June 2004 to
June 2006, the U.S. Federal Reserve increased its target for the federal funds
rate from 1.00% to 5.25%. Beginning in September 2007, its target federal funds
rate has been reduced and ended 2007 at 4.25%. While these short-term market
interest rates (which are used as a guide to price the Bank’s deposits) have
fluctuated, longer-term market interest rates (which are used as a guide to
price the Bank’s longer-term loans) have not changed in a similar fashion. This
“flattening” of the market yield curve has had a negative impact on the Bank’s
interest rate spread and net interest margin to date, and if short-term interest
rates continue to rise, and if rates on the Bank’s deposits and borrowings
continue to reprice upwards faster than rates on the Bank’s long-term loans and
investments, the Bank would experience further compression of its interest rate
spread and net interest margin, which would have a negative effect on the Bank’s
profitability.
Changes
in interest rates also affect the value of the Bank’s interest-earning assets,
and in particular the Bank’s securities portfolio. Generally, the value of
fixed-rate securities fluctuates inversely with changes in interest rates.
Unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale are reported as a
separate component of equity, net of tax. Decreases in the fair value of
securities available for sale resulting from increases in interest rates could
have an adverse effect on shareholders’ equity.
Changes
in interest rates effecting the value of the Company’s trading portfolio are
recorded through the consolidated statements of income. Therefore
changes in interest rates will have a direct impact on recorded net
income.
Impact
of Liquidity and Credit Concerns
The
Company’s operations are effected by National trends and concerns with respect
to liquidity and credit risk. The ability of the Company to trade
investment securities is somewhat contingent upon a ready market place for such
securities. Therefore the Company experiences risk as a result of the
changing credit and liquidity operating environment.
Strong
competition within the Bank’s market areas could hurt profits and slow
growth.
The Bank
faces intense competition both in making loans and attracting deposits. This
competition has made it more difficult for the Bank to make new loans and at
times has forced the Bank to offer higher deposit rates. Price competition for
loans and deposits might result in the Bank earning less on loans and paying
more on deposits, which would reduce net interest income. Competition also makes
it more difficult to grow loans and deposits and to hire and retain experienced
employees. Some of the institutions with which the Bank competes have
substantially greater resources and lending limits than the Bank has and may
offer services that the Bank does not provide. Management expects competition to
increase in the future as a result of legislative, regulatory and technological
changes and the continuing trend of consolidation in the financial services
industry. The Bank’s profitability depends upon its continued ability to compete
successfully in its market area.
We
are exposed to credit risk in our lending activities.
There are
inherent risks associated with our lending and trading activities. Loans to
individuals and business entities, our single largest asset group, depend for
repayment on the willingness and ability of borrowers to perform as contracted.
A material adverse change in the ability of a significant portion of our
borrowers to meet their obligation to us, due to changes in economic conditions,
interest rates, natural disaster, acts of war, or other causes over which we
have no control, could adversely impact the ability of borrowers to repay
outstanding loans or the value of the collateral securing these loans, and could
have a material adverse impact on our earnings and financial
condition.
The
Company operates in a highly regulated environment and may be adversely affected
by changes in laws, regulations and tax policies.
As
described earlier, the Bank is subject to extensive regulation, supervision and
examination by the Office of Thrift Supervision, its primary federal regulator,
and by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, as insurer of our deposits. In
addition, the Company is subject to regulation and supervision by the Office of
Thrift Supervision. Such regulation and supervision govern the activities in
which an institution and its holding company may engage and are intended
primarily for the protection of the insurance fund and the depositors and
borrowers of the Bank rather than for holders of the Company’s common stock.
Regulatory authorities have extensive discretion in their supervisory and
enforcement activities, including the imposition of restrictions on operations,
the classification of the Bank’s assets and determination of the level of
allowance for loan losses. Any change in such regulation and oversight, whether
in the form of regulatory policy, regulations, legislation or supervisory
action, may have a material impact on operations.
Likewise,
the Company operates in an environment that imposes income taxes on its
operations at both the federal and state levels to varying degrees. Strategies
and operating routines have been implemented to minimize the impact of these
taxes.
Consequently,
any change in tax legislation could significantly alter the effectiveness of
these strategies.
Negative
events in certain geographic areas could adversely affect us.
Negative
conditions in the real estate markets where collateral for our mortgage loans is
located could adversely affect our borrower’s ability to repay and the value of
the collateral. Real estate values are affected by various factors, including
changes in general or regional economic conditions, governmental rules or
policies and natural disasters such as hurricanes.
We
are dependent upon the services of our management team.
We are
dependent upon the ability and experience of a number of our key management
personnel who have substantial experience with our operations, the financial
services industry and the markets in which we offer our services. It is possible
that the loss of the services of one or more of our senior executives or key
managers would have an adverse effect on our operations. Our success also
depends on our ability to continue to attract, manage and retain other qualified
middle management personnel as we grow. We cannot assure you that we will
continue to attract or retain such personnel.
Provisions
in our articles of incorporation and bylaws and New York law may discourage or
prevent takeover attempts, and these provisions may have the effect of reducing
the market price of our stock.
Our
articles of incorporation and bylaws include several provisions that may have
the effect of discouraging or preventing hostile takeover attempts, and
therefore, making the removal of incumbent management difficult. The provisions
include staggered terms for our board of directors and requirements of
supermajority votes to approve certain business transactions. In addition, New
York law contains several provisions that may make it more difficult for a third
party to acquire control of us without the approval of the board of directors,
and may make it more difficult or expensive for a third party to acquire a
majority of our outstanding stock. To the extent that these provisions are
effective in discouraging or preventing takeover attempts, they may tend to
reduce the market price for our stock.
Changes
in accounting standards could impact reported earnings.
The
accounting standard setting bodies, including the Financial Accounting Standards
Board, the Securities and Exchange Commission and other regulatory bodies,
periodically change financial accounting and reporting standards that govern the
preparation of our consolidated statements. These changes can be hard to predict
and can materially impact how the Company records and reports its financial
condition and results of operations. In some cases, we could be required to
apply a new or revised accounting standard retroactively, which could effect
beginning of period financial statement amounts.
Our
disclosure controls and procedures may not prevent or detect all errors or acts
of fraud.
Our
disclosure controls and procedures are designed to reasonably assure that
information required to be disclosed by First Financial in reports we file or
submit under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and
communicated to management, and recorded, processed, summarized, and reported
within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. We believe that
any disclosure controls and procedures or internal controls and procedures, no
matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not
absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are
met.
These
inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can
be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistakes.
Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some
persons, by collusion of two or more people or by an unauthorized override of
the controls. Accordingly, because of the inherent limitations in our control
system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be
detected.
The
preparation of financial statements requires the use of estimates that may vary
from actual results.
Preparation
of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
accepted in the United States of America requires management to make significant
estimates that affect the financial statements. One of our most critical
estimates is the level of the allowance for loan losses. Due to the inherent
nature of this estimate, we cannot provide absolute assurance that we will not
significantly increase the allowance for loan losses higher than the current
balance.
We
rely on communications, information, operating and financial control systems,
and technology from third-party service providers, and we may suffer an
interruption in those systems that may result in lost business. Further, we may
not be able to substitute providers on terms that are as favorable if our
relationships with our existing service providers are interrupted.
We rely
heavily on third-party service providers for much of our communications,
information, operating and financial controls systems, and technology. Any
failure or interruption or breach in security of these systems could result in
failures or interruptions in our customer relationships management, general
ledger, deposit, servicing and/or loan origination systems. We cannot assure you
that such failures or interruptions will not occur or, if they do occur, that
they will be adequately addressed by us or the third parties on which we rely.
The occurrence of any failure or interruption could have a material adverse
effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash
flows. If any of our third-party service providers experience financial,
operational or technological difficulties, or if there is any other disruption
in our relationships with them, we may be required to locate alternative sources
of such services, and we cannot assure you that we could negotiate terms that
are as favorable to us, or could obtain services with similar functionality as
found in our existing systems, without the need to expend substantial resources,
if at all. Any of these circumstances could have a material adverse effect on
our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash
flows.
If
the business continuity and disaster recovery plans that we have in place are
not adequate to continue our operations in the event of a disaster, the business
disruption can adversely impact our operations.
External
events, including terrorist or military actions, or an outbreak of disease, such
as Asian Influenza, or “bird flu” and resulting political and social turmoil
could cause unforeseen damage to our physical facilities or could cause delays
or disruptions to operational functions, including information processing and
financial market settlement functions. Additionally, our customers, vendors and
counterparties could suffer from such events. Should these events affect us, or
our customers, or vendors or counterparties with which we conduct business, our
results of operations could be adversely affected.
Decline
in home values in the Company’s markets could adversely impact results from
operations.
Like all
financial services providers, the Company is subject to the effects of any
economic downturn, and in particular, a significant decline in home values in
the Company’s markets could have a negative effect on the results of operations.
A significant decline in home values would likely lead to a decrease in new home
equity loan originations and increased delinquencies and defaults in both the
consumer home equity loan and the residential real estate loan portfolios and
result in increased losses in these portfolios.
There was
significant disruption and volatility in the financial and capital markets
during the second half of 2007. Turmoil in the mortgage market
adversely impacted both domestic and global markets and led to a significant
global credit and liquidity crisis. These market conditions were
attributed to a variety of factors, in particular the fallout associated with
subprime mortgage loans (a type of lending we have never actively
pursued). The disruption has been exacerbated by the continued
decline of the real estate and housing market. While we continue to
adhere to prudent underwriting standards and do not participate in subprime
lending. The geographic markets in which we operate may not be immune
to some negative consequences arising from overall economic weakness and in
particular, a downturn in the housing market nationally. Decreases in
real estate values could adversely affect the value of property used as
collateral for our loans. Adverse changes in the economy may have a
negative effect on the ability of our borrowers to make timely loan payments,
which would have an adverse impact on our earnings.

TrustCo's
executive offices are located at 5 Sarnowski Drive, Glenville, New York, 12302.
The Company operates 107 offices, of which 23 are owned and 84 are leased from
others. The asset value of these properties, when considered in the aggregate,
is not material to the operation of TrustCo.
In the
opinion of management, the physical properties of TrustCo and the Bank are
suitable and adequate and are being fully utilized.
The
nature of TrustCo's business generates a certain amount of litigation against
TrustCo and its subsidiaries involving matters arising in the ordinary course of
business. In the opinion of management of TrustCo, there are no proceedings
pending to which TrustCo or any of its subsidiaries is a party, or of which its
property is the subject which, if determined adversely to TrustCo or such
subsidiaries, would be material in relation to TrustCo's consolidated
shareholders' equity and financial condition.

An

Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and
procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Disclosure
controls and procedures are procedures that are designed with the objective of
ensuring that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports
filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, such as this Form 10-K, is
recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified
in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Based on that
evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have
concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to
satisfy the objectives for which they are designed.
Management’s Report on Internal
Control over Financial Reporting, together with the report thereon of
KPMG LLP, is included in TrustCo’s Annual Report to Shareholders for the year
ended December 31, 2007, which is filed as Exhibit 13 hereto and incorporated
herein by reference.
Subsequent
to the date of Management’s evaluation and since September 30, 2007, there were
no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls, including internal
controls over financial reporting, or in other factors that could significantly
affect these controls, including any corrective actions with regard to
significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.
Item
9B. Other
Information
None.
PART
III
Item
10. Directors,
Executive Officers and Corporate Governance
The
information in TrustCo's Proxy Statement filed for its Annual Meeting of
Shareholders to be held May 19, 2008 under the following captions is
incorporated herein by reference: "Information on TrustCo Directors and
Nominees" and "Information on TrustCo Executive Officers", and “Section 16(a)
Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance". TrustCo has adopted a code of
conduct that applies to all employees, including its principal executive,
financial and accounting officers. A copy of this code of conduct will be
provided without charge upon written request. Requests and inquiries should be
directed to: Robert M. Leonard, Administrative Vice President, TrustCo Bank Corp
NY, P.O. Box 1082, Schenectady, New York 12301-1082. The required information
regarding TrustCo's executive officers is contained in PART I in the item
captioned "Executive Officers of TrustCo."
Under
rules adopted by the SEC, TrustCo is required to disclose whether it has an
“audit committee financial expert” serving on its Audit Committee. The Board has
determined that none of the members of the Audit Committee meet the definition
of “audit committee financial expert” as defined in those rules. The Board
believes that in order to fulfill all the functions of the Board and the Audit
Committee, each member of the Board and the Audit Committee should meet all the
criteria that have been established by the Board for Board membership and that
it is not in the best interests of the Company to nominate as a director someone
who does not have all the experience, attributes and qualifications that TrustCo
seeks. Further, the Board believes that the present members of the Audit
Committee have sufficient knowledge and experience in financial affairs to
effectively perform their duties.
TrustCo’s
Audit Committee consists of five non-employee directors, each of whom has been
selected for the Audit Committee by the Board based on a determination that they
are fully qualified to monitor the performance of management, the public
disclosures by the Company of its financial condition and performance, the
Company’s internal accounting operations and our independent auditors. Members
of the committee include William D. Powers (Chairman), Joseph Lucarelli, Thomas
O. Maggs, Anthony J. Marinello, M.D.,Ph.D., and William J. Purdy. The
Audit Committee has the ability on its own to retain independent accountants or
other consultants whenever it deems appropriate, and has, in fact, retained
Marvin & Co., an independent accounting firm, as a consultant to the
committee. Further, the Audit Committee receives directly or has access to
extensive information from reviews and examinations by the Company's internal
auditor, independent auditor and the various banking regulatory agencies having
jurisdiction over the Company and its subsidiaries.
Item
11. Executive
Compensation
The

and "Information on TrustCo Executive Officers," and "Ownership Of TrustCo
Common Stock By Certain Beneficial Owners" in TrustCo's Proxy Statement filed
for its Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held May 19, 2008, is incorporated
herein by reference. Additional information concerning the Company’s equity
compensation plan is set forth in Item 5 hereof.
Item

information under the caption "Transactions with TrustCo and Trustco Bank
Directors, Executive Officers and Associates" included in TrustCo's Proxy
