NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1) Basis of Presentation
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of
normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of Glacier
Bancorp Inc.'s (the "Company") financial condition as of March 31, 2010 and
2009, stockholders' equity and comprehensive income for the three months
ended March 31, 2010, the results of operations for the three months ended
March 31, 2010 and 2009, and cash flows for the three months ended March
31, 2010 and 2009. The condensed consolidated statement of financial
condition and statement of stockholders' equity and comprehensive income of
the Company as of December 31, 2009 have been derived from the audited
consolidated statements of the Company as of that date.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include
all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial
statements. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes
thereto contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the
year ended December 31, 2009. Operating results for the three months ended
March 31, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results anticipated
for the year ending December 31, 2010. Certain reclassifications have been
made to the 2009 financial statements to conform to the 2010 presentation.
Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change
relate to the determination of the allowance for loan and lease losses
("ALLL" or "allowance") and the valuations related to investments, business
combinations and real estate acquired in connection with foreclosures or in
satisfaction of loans. In connection with the determination of the ALLL and
other real estate valuation estimates management obtains independent
appraisals for significant items. Estimates relating to investments are
obtained from independent parties. Estimates relating to business
combinations are determined based on internal calculations using
significant independent party inputs and independent party valuations.
2) Organizational Structure
The Company, headquartered in Kalispell, Montana, is a Montana corporation
incorporated in 2004 as a successor corporation to the Delaware corporation
incorporated in 1990. The Company is a regional multi-bank holding company
that provides a full range of banking services to individual and corporate
customers in Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Colorado, Utah and Washington through
its bank subsidiaries (collectively referred to hereafter as the "Banks").
The bank subsidiaries are subject to competition from other financial
service providers. The bank subsidiaries are also subject to the
regulations of certain government agencies and undergo periodic
examinations by those regulatory authorities.
As of March 31, 2010, the Company is the parent holding company for eleven
wholly-owned, independent community bank subsidiaries: Glacier Bank
("Glacier"), First Security Bank of Missoula ("First Security"), Western
Security Bank ("Western"), Big Sky Western Bank ("Big Sky"), Valley Bank of
Helena ("Valley"), and First Bank of Montana ("First Bank-MT"), all located
in Montana, Mountain West Bank ("Mountain West") and Citizens Community
Bank ("Citizens") located in Idaho, 1st Bank ("1st Bank") and First
National Bank & Trust ("First National") located in Wyoming, and Bank of
the San Juans ("San Juans") located in Colorado.
7
In addition, the Company owns seven trust subsidiaries, Glacier Capital
Trust II ("Glacier Trust II"), Glacier Capital Trust III ("Glacier Trust
III"), Glacier Capital Trust IV ("Glacier Trust IV"), Citizens (ID)
Statutory Trust I ("Citizens Trust I"), Bank of the San Juans
Bancorporation Trust I ("San Juans Trust I"), First Company Statutory Trust
2001 ("First Co Trust 01") and First Company Statutory Trust 2003 ("First
Co Trust 03") for the purpose of issuing trust preferred securities and, in
accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting
Standards Codification(TM) ("ASC") Topic 810, Consolidation, the trust
subsidiaries are not consolidated into the Company's financial statements.
The Company does not have any other off-balance sheet entities.
On October 2, 2009, the Company completed the acquisition of First Company
and its subsidiary First National. First National became a separate
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the financial condition and
results of operations are included from the acquisition date.
On February 1, 2009, First National Bank of Morgan ("Morgan") merged into
1st Bank resulting in operations being conducted under the 1st Bank
charter. Prior period activity of Morgan has been combined and included in
1st Bank's historical results. The merger has been accounted for as a
combination of two wholly-owned subsidiaries without acquisition
accounting.
FASB ASC Topic 810, Consolidation, provides guidance as to when a company
should consolidate the assets, liabilities, and activities of a variable
interest entity ("VIE") in its financial statements, and when a company
should disclose information about its relationship with a VIE. A VIE is a
legal structure used to conduct activities or hold assets, and a VIE must
be consolidated by a company if it is the primary beneficiary that absorbs
the majority of the entity's expected losses, receives a majority of the
entity's expected residual returns, or both.
The Company has equity investments in Certified Development Entities
("CDE") which have received allocations of new market tax credits ("NMTC").
The Company also has equity investments in low-income housing tax credit
("LIHTC") partnerships. The CDE's and the LIHTC partnerships are VIE's. The
underlying activities of the VIE's are community development projects
designed primarily to promote community welfare, such as economic
rehabilitation and development of low-income areas by providing housing,
services, or jobs for residents. The maximum exposure to loss in the VIE's
is the amount of equity invested or credit extended by the Company;
however, the Company has credit protection in the form of indemnification
agreements, guarantees, and collateral arrangements. The Company has
evaluated the variable interests held by the Company and others and where
the Company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE, the VIE has been
consolidated into the bank subsidiary which holds the direct investment in
the VIE. Currently, only CDE (NMTC) investments are consolidated into the
Company's financial statements. For the CDE (NMTC) investments, the
creditors and other beneficial interest holders have no recourse to the
general credit of the bank subsidiaries. As of March 31, 2010, the Company
had investments in VIE's of $30,543,000 and $2,294,000 for the CDE (NMTC)
and LIHTC partnerships, respectively. The consolidated VIE's as well as the
unconsolidated VIE's are regularly monitored by the Company to determine if
any reconsideration events have occurred that could cause its primary
beneficiary status to change.
8
See Note 12 - Segment Information for selected financial data including net
earnings and total assets for the parent company and each of the community
bank subsidiaries. Although the consolidated total assets of the Company
were $6.2 billion at March 31, 2010, nine of the eleven community banks had
total assets of less than $1 billion. The smallest community bank
subsidiary had $177 million in total assets, while the largest community
bank subsidiary had $1.3 billion in total assets at March 31, 2010.

Maturities of securities do not reflect repricing opportunities present in
adjustable rate securities, nor do they reflect expected shorter maturities
based upon early prepayment of principal. Weighted yields on tax-exempt
investment securities exclude the tax effect.
Interest income includes tax-exempt interest for the three months ended
March 31, 2010 and 2009 of $5,568,000 and $5,331,000, respectively.
Gross proceeds from sale of marketable securities for the three months
ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 were $9,058,000 and $0, respectively,
resulting in gross gains of $390,000 and $0, respectively, and gross losses
of $76,000 and $0, respectively. The cost of any investment sold is
determined by specific identification.
At March 31, 2010, the Company had investment securities with carrying
values of approximately $1,243,560,000, pledged as collateral for Federal
Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") advances, Federal Reserve Bank ("FRB") discount
window borrowings, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, U.S.
Treasury Tax and Loan borrowings and deposits of several local government
units.

The investments in the FHLB stock are required investments related to the
Company's borrowings from FHLB. FHLB obtains its funding primarily through
issuance of consolidated obligations of the FHLB system. The U.S.
Government does not guarantee these obligations, and each of the 12 FHLBs
are jointly and severally liable for repayment of each other's debt.

The Company assesses individual securities in its investment securities
portfolio for impairment at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently
when economic or market conditions warrant. An investment is impaired if
the fair value of the security is less than its carrying value at the
financial statement date. If impairment is determined to be
other-than-temporary, an impairment loss is recognized by reducing the
amortized cost for the credit loss portion of the impairment with a
corresponding charge to earnings.
For fair value estimates provided by third party vendors, management also
considered the models and methodology, for appropriate consideration of
both observable and unobservable inputs, including appropriately adjusted
discount rates and credit spreads for securities with limited or inactive
markets, and whether the quoted prices reflect orderly transactions, For
certain securities, the Company obtained independent estimates of inputs,
including cash flows, in supplement to third party vendor provided
information. The Company also reviewed financial statements of select
issuers, with follow up discussions with issuers' management for
clarification and verification of information relevant to the Company's
impairment analysis.
In evaluating debt securities for other-than-temporary impairment losses,
management assesses whether the Company intends to sell or if it is more
likely-than-not that it will be required to sell impaired debt securities.
In so doing, management considers contractual constraints, liquidity,
capital, asset / liability management and securities portfolio objectives.
With respect to its impaired debt securities at March 31, 2010, management
determined that it does not intend to sell and that there is no expected
requirement to sell any of its impaired debt securities.
12
Based on an analysis of its impaired securities as of March 31, 2010, the
Company determined that none of such securities had other-than-temporary
impairment. For further information regarding the assessment of
other-than-temporary impairment on securities, see discussion in "ITEM 2.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations, Other-Than-Temporary Impairment on Securities Accounting Policy

In June 2009, FASB issued an amendment to FASB ASC Topic 860, Accounting
for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets, and is effective for
transfers occurring after the beginning of the first annual reporting
period that begins after November 15, 2009. The Company adopted this
amendment for all new transfers, primarily consisting of transfers of
loans, occurring on or subsequent to January 1, 2010. The Company generally
sells its long-term mortgage loans originated, retaining servicing only
when required by certain lenders. The sale of loans in the secondary
mortgage market reduces the Company's risk of holding long-term fixed rate
loans in the loan portfolio. Mortgage loans sold with no servicing rights
retained for the three months ended March, 2010 and 2009 were $182,642,000
and $312,917,000, respectively. The amount of loans sold and serviced for
others at March 31, 2010 was approximately $177,177,000.
In accordance with this amendment, transfers of SBA loans are recognized as
sales when the warranty period expires which is typically 90 days. The
Company has been active in originating commercial SBA loans, some of which
are sold to investors. As of March 31, 2010, the Company had $6,188,000 of
SBA loans sold for which there was a deferred gain of $576,000 due to
unexpired warranty periods.
13
The Company occasionally purchases and sells other loan participations, the
majority of which are large commercial loans. For participation
transactions after the adoption of the amendment, the bank subsidiaries
typically originates and sells the loan participations, at fair value, on a
proportionate ownership basis, with no recourse conditions.

(1) The mortgage servicing rights are included in other assets and gross
carrying value and accumulated amortization are not readily available.
Acquisitions are accounted for as prescribed by FASB ASC Topic 805,
Business Combinations. Acquisition accounting requires the total purchase
price to be allocated to the estimated fair values of assets acquired and
liabilities assumed, including certain intangible assets. Goodwill is
recorded if the purchase price exceeds the net fair value of assets
acquired and a bargain purchase gain is recorded in other income if the
net fair value of assets acquired exceeds the purchase price.
Adjustment of the allocated purchase price may be related to fair value
estimates for which all information has not been obtained of the acquired
entity known or discovered during the allocation period, the period of
time required to identify and measure the fair values of the assets and
liabilities acquired in the business combination.

During 2009, the Company made investments in CDE's which received NMTC
allocations. Administered by the Community Development Financial
Institutions Fund of the U.S. Department of the Treasury, the NMTC program
is aimed at stimulating economic and community development and job
creation in low-income communities. The federal income tax credits
received are claimed over a seven-year credit allowance period. In
addition to previous LIHTC investments, during the third quarter 2009, the
Company made another investment in a LIHTC. The LIHTC is an indirect
Federal subsidy used to finance the development of affordable rental
housing for low-income households. The federal income tax credits received
are claimed over a ten-year credit allowance period. The Company invests
in Qualified Zone Academy and Qualified School Construction bonds whereby
the Company receives quarterly federal income tax credits until the bonds
mature. The federal income tax credits on the bonds are subject to federal
and state income tax. Following is a list of expected federal income tax
credits to be received in the years indicated.

12) Operating Segment Information
FASB ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting, requires that a public business
enterprise report financial and descriptive information about its
reportable operating segments. Operating segments are defined as
components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is
available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision
makers in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.
The Company defines operating segments and evaluates segment performance
internally based on individual bank charters. If required, VIEs are
consolidated into the operating segment which invested into such entities.
19
The accounting policies of the individual operating segments are the same
as those of the Company. Transactions between operating segments are
conducted at fair value, resulting in profits that are eliminated for
reporting consolidated results of operations. Intersegment revenues
primarily represents interest income on intercompany borrowings,
management fees, and data processing fees received by individual banks or
the parent company. Intersegment revenues, expenses and assets are
eliminated in order to report results in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Expenses
for centrally provided services are allocated based on the estimated usage
of those services.
The following schedules provide selected financial data for the Company's
operating segments:

13) Fair Value Measurement
FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, requires the
Company to disclose information relating to fair value. Fair value is
defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to
transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants
at the measurement date. The Topic establishes a fair value hierarchy
which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and
minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The
standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair
value:
Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities
Level 2 Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted
prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in
markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable
or can be corroborated by observable market data for
substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities
Level 3 Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market
activity and that are significant to the fair value of the
assets or liabilities
The following schedule discloses the major class of assets measured at
fair value on a recurring basis for the period ended March 31, 2010:

The following is a description of the inputs and valuation methodologies
used for financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
There have been no significant changes in the valuation techniques during
the three month period ended March 31, 2010.
Investment securities - fair value for available-for-sale securities is
estimated by obtaining quoted market prices for identical assets, where
available. If such prices are not available, fair value is based on
independent asset pricing services and models, the inputs of which are
market-based or independently sourced market parameters, including, but
not limited to, yield curves, interest rates, volatilities, prepayments,
defaults, cumulative loss projections, and cash flows. For those
securities where greater reliance on unobservable inputs occurs, such
securities are classified as Level 3 within the hierarchy.
The following schedules reconcile the beginning and ending balances for
assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant
unobservable inputs (Level 3) during the three month periods ended March
31, 2010 and 2009.

The change in unrealized gains (losses) related to available-for-sale
securities is reported in the accumulated other comprehensive income. The
only state and local government security was transferred out of Level 3
and into Level 2 during the first quarter 2010 as a result of third party
pricing being obtained as of March 31, 2010 and expected to be obtained in
future quarters, whereas third party pricing was unavailable prior to
March 31, 2010 for such security and there was a greater reliance on
unobservable inputs for fair value.

========== =========
The following is a description of the methods used to estimate the fair
value of all other financial instruments recognized at amounts other than
fair value.
Financial Assets
The estimated fair value of cash, federal funds sold, interest bearing
cash deposits, and accrued interest receivable is the book value of such
financial assets.
The estimated fair value of FHLB and FRB stock is book value due to the
restrictions that such stock may only be sold to another member
institution or the FHLB or FRB at par value.
Loans receivable, net of ALLL - fair value for unimpaired loans, net of
ALLL, is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the rates at
which similar notes would be written for the same remaining maturities.
Impaired loans are primarily collateral-dependent and the estimated fair
value is based on the fair value of the collateral.
Financial Liabilities
The estimated fair value of accrued interest payable is the book value of
such financial liabilities.
Deposits - fair value of term deposits is estimated by discounting the
future cash flows using rates of similar deposits with similar maturities.
The estimated fair value of demand, NOW, savings, and money market
deposits is the book value since rates are regularly adjusted to market
rates.
Advances from FHLB - fair value of advances is estimated based on
borrowing rates currently available to the Company for advances with
similar terms and maturities.
24
Repurchase agreements and other borrowed funds - fair value of term
repurchase agreements and other term borrowings is estimated based on
current repurchase rates and borrowing rates currently available to the
Company for repurchases and borrowings with similar terms and maturities.
The estimated fair value for overnight repurchase agreements and other
borrowings is book value.
Subordinated debentures - fair value of the subordinated debt is estimated
by discounting the estimated future cash flows using current estimated
market rates for subordinated debt issuances with similar characteristics.
Off-balance sheet financial instruments - commitments to extend credit and
letters of credit represent the principal categories of off-balance sheet
financial instruments. Rates for these commitments are set at time of loan
closing, such that no adjustment is necessary to reflect these commitments
at market value.
14) Rate/Volume Analysis
Net interest income can be evaluated from the perspective of relative
dollars of change in each period. Interest income and interest expense,
which are the components of net interest income, are shown in the
following table on the basis of the amount of any increases (or decreases)
attributable to changes in the dollar levels of the Company's
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities ("Volume") and
the yields earned and rates paid on such assets and liabilities ("Rate").
The change in interest income and interest expense attributable to changes
in both volume and rates has been allocated proportionately to the change
due to volume and the change due to rate.

Net Interest Income
Net interest income for the current quarter decreased $4.3 million, or 7
percent, with interest income decreasing $4.7 million, or 6 percent, compared to
the prior quarter. The decrease in interest income for the current quarter was
primarily the result of fewer days, a higher level of loans on non-accrual and a
decrease in interest rates on investments and loans. Net interest income for the
current quarter decreased $0.9 million, or 1 percent, with interest expense
decreasing $1.3 million, or 8 percent, over the same period in 2009. The
decrease in total interest expense from the prior year first quarter is
attributable to rate decreases in interest bearing deposits and borrowings. The
current quarter net interest margin as a percentage of earning assets, on a
tax-equivalent basis, was 4.43 percent which is 27 basis points lower than the
4.70 percent achieved for the prior quarter, and 49 basis points lower than the
4.92 percent result for the first quarter of 2009.
Non-Interest Income
Non-interest income for the current quarter totaled $16 million, a decrease of
$10 million and $1.2 million over the prior quarter and prior year first
quarter, respectively. The prior quarter other income had a $3.5 million
one-time bargain purchase gain from the acquisition of First National. Excluding
the bargain purchase gain and gain on investments, non-interest income decreased
$3.4 million, or 18 percent, from the prior quarter, and decreased $1.5 million,
or 9 percent, over the same period in 2009. Fee income decreased $1.6 million,
or 13 percent, from the previous quarter primarily from a decrease in
non-sufficient-funds fee income, compared to an increase of $467 thousand, or 5
percent, over the same period last year. Gain on sale of loans decreased $2.2
million, or 36 percent, over the prior quarter, and $2.3 million, or 37 percent,
over the same period last year, primarily the result of a significant reduction
in re-finance activity and a slowing of residential loans originated and sold in
the secondary market. Net gain on sale of investments was $314 thousand for the
current quarter 2010 compared to $3.3 million for the previous quarter, a 91
percent decrease.

prior quarter and increased $53 thousand, or 1 percent, from the prior quarter
and the prior year first quarter, respectively. Advertising and promotion
expense increased $157 thousand, or 11 percent, from prior quarter and decreased
$132 thousand, or 8 percent, from the first quarter of 2009. Foreclosed asset
expenses, losses and write-downs decreased $1.1 million, or 31 percent, and
increased $1.8 million, or 346 percent, from the prior quarter and the prior
year first quarter, respectively. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC")
premiums increased $260 thousand, or 13 percent, and increased $1.0 million, or
88 percent, from the prior quarter and the prior year first quarter,
respectively, as the FDIC increased premiums and premium credits ended. The
decrease of $1.4 million, or 16 percent, in other expense from the prior quarter
includes $313 thousand in legal and outside service expenses, the majority of
which relate to the acquisition of First National, $201 thousand in supplies and
printing, $361 thousand in checking account losses.
The efficiency ratio (non-interest expense / net interest income plus
non-interest income) was 55 percent for the quarter, compared to 51 percent for
the 2009 first quarter. The increase in the efficiency ratio from the prior year
is the result of the increase in other expenses primarily from FDIC insurance
premiums and foreclosed asset expenses, losses and write-downs combined with the
slowing of residential loans originated and sold on the secondary market.
Provision for Loan Losses
The current quarter provision for loan loss expense was $21 million, a decrease
of $16 million from prior quarter and an increase of $5 million from the same
quarter in 2009. Net charged-off loans for the current quarter were $20 million
compared to $19 million for the prior quarter and $9 million for the same
quarter in 2009. For the quarter, the provision covered net charge-offs 1.0
times.
The determination of the allowance for loan and lease losses ("ALLL" or
"Allowance") and the related provision for loan losses is a critical accounting
estimate that involves management's judgments about current environmental
factors which affect loan losses, such factors including economic conditions,
changes in collateral values, net charge-offs, and other factors discussed in
"Additional Management's Discussion and Analysis" - Allowance for Loan and Lease
Losses.

Total assets at March 31, 2010 were $6.226 billion, which is $34 million, or 1
percent, greater than the total assets of $6.192 billion at December 31, 2009
and an increase of $645 million, or 12 percent, over the total assets of $5.581

decrease of $58 million over total loans of $4.130 billion at December 31, 2009
and a decrease of $89 million over total loans at March 31, 2009. Loan
originations have slowed, which was the basis for the decrease in all loan
categories including a decrease of $24 million, or 3 percent, in residential
real estate loans, a decrease of $15 million, or 2 percent in consumer loans,
and a decrease of $20 million, or 1 percent, in commercial loans since December
31, 2009. The Company's loan portfolio is further discussed in "Additional
Management's Discussion and Analysis, Loan Portfolio."
Investment securities, including interest bearing deposits in other financial
institutions and federal funds sold, have increased $125 million, or 8 percent,
from December 31, 2009 and increased $714 million, or 71 percent, from March 31,
2009. The Company continues to purchase investment securities as loan
originations slow and therefore investment securities represented 28 percent of
total assets at March 31, 2010 versus 18 percent of total assets at March 31,
2009.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN AND LEASE LOSSES
Determining the adequacy of the ALLL involves a high degree of judgment and is
inevitably imprecise as the risk of loss is difficult to quantify. The ALLL
methodology is designed to reasonably estimate the probable loan and lease
losses within each bank subsidiary's loan and lease portfolios. Accordingly, the
ALLL is maintained within a range of estimated losses. The determination of the
ALLL and the related provision for loan losses is a critical accounting estimate
that involves management's judgments about all known relevant internal and
external environmental factors that affect loan losses, including the credit
risk inherent in the loan and lease portfolios, economic conditions nationally
and in the local markets in which the community bank subsidiaries operate,
changes in collateral values, delinquencies, non-performing assets and net
charge-offs. Although the Company and Banks continue to actively monitor
economic trends, a softening of economic conditions combined with declines in
the values of real estate that collateralize most of the Company's loan and
lease portfolios may adversely affect the credit risk and potential for loss to
the Company.
The ALLL evaluation is well documented and approved by each bank subsidiary's
Board of Directors and reviewed by the parent company's Board of Directors. In
addition, the policy and procedures for determining the balance of the ALLL are
reviewed annually by each bank subsidiary's Board of Directors, the parent
company's Board of Directors, independent credit reviewer and state and federal
bank regulatory agencies.
34
At the end of each quarter, each of the community bank subsidiaries analyzes its
loan and lease portfolio and maintain an ALLL at a level that is appropriate and
determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America. The ALLL balance covers estimated credit losses on
individually evaluated loans, including those which are determined to be
impaired, as well as estimated credit losses inherent in the remainder of the
loan and lease portfolios. Each of the Bank's ALLL is considered adequate to
absorb losses from any segment of its loan and lease portfolio.
The Company is committed to a conservative management of the credit risk within
the loan and lease portfolios, including the early recognition of problem loans.
The Company's credit risk management includes stringent credit policies,
individual loan approval limits, limits on concentrations of credit, and
committee approval of larger loan requests. Management practices also include
regular internal and external credit examinations, identification and review of
individual loans and leases experiencing deterioration of credit quality,
procedures for the collection of non-performing assets, quarterly monitoring of
the loan and lease portfolios, semi-annual review of loans by industry, and
periodic stress testing of the loans secured by real estate.
The Company's model of eleven wholly-owned, independent community banks, each
with its own loan committee, chief credit officer and Board of Directors,
provides substantial local oversight to the lending and credit management
function. Unlike a traditional, single-bank holding company, the Company's
decentralized business model affords multiple reviews of larger loans before
credit is extended, a significant benefit in mitigating and managing the
Company's credit risk. The geographic dispersion of the market areas in which
the Company and the community bank subsidiaries operate further mitigates the
risk of credit loss. While this process is intended to limit credit exposure,
there can be no assurance that further problem credits will not arise and
additional loan losses incurred, particularly in periods of rapid economic
downturns.
The primary responsibility for credit risk assessment and identification of
problem loans rests with the loan officer of the account. This continuous
process, utilizing each of the Banks' internal credit risk rating process, is
necessary to support management's evaluation of the ALLL adequacy. An
independent loan review function verifying credit risk ratings evaluates the
loan officer and management's evaluation of the loan portfolio credit quality.
The loan review function also assesses the evaluation process and provides an
independent analysis of the adequacy of the ALLL.
The Company considers the ALLL balance of $143.6 million adequate to cover
inherent losses in the loan and lease portfolios as of March 31, 2010. However,
no assurance can be given that the Company will not, in any particular period,
sustain losses that are significant relative to the amount reserved, or that
subsequent evaluations of the loan and lease portfolios applying management's
judgment about then current factors, including economic and regulatory
developments, will not require significant changes in the ALLL. Under such
circumstances, this could result in enhanced provisions for loan losses. See
additional risk factors in "Part II, ITEM 1A. Risk Factors."

The ALLL has increased slightly during the first quarter of 2010 compared to the
large increases during 2009, primarily due to the slowing pace of the
non-performing assets since December 31, 2009.
At March 31, 2010, the allowance for loan and lease losses was $143.6 million,
an increase of $59.8 million, or 71 percent, from a year ago. The allowance was
3.53 percent of total loans outstanding at March 31, 2010, up from 3.46 percent
at the prior quarter end, and up from 2.01 percent at March 31, 2009. Loan
portfolio growth, composition, average loan size, credit quality considerations,
and other environmental factors will continue to determine the level of
additional provision expense.
The Banks' charge-off policy is consistent with bank regulatory standards.
Consumer loans generally are charged off when the loan becomes over 120 days
delinquent. Real estate acquired as a result of foreclosure or by deed-in-lieu
of foreclosure is classified as real estate owned until such time as it is sold.
When such property is acquired, it is recorded at estimated fair value, less
estimated cost to sell. Any write-down at the time of recording real estate
owned is charged to the ALLL. Subsequent write-downs, if any, are charged to
current expense.

The allowance was 54 percent of non-performing assets at March 31, 2010, down
from 55 percent for the prior quarter end and down from 72 percent a year ago.
Non-performing assets as a percentage of total bank assets at March 31, 2010
were at 4.19 percent, up from 4.13 percent as of prior quarter end, and up from
1.97 percent at March 31, 2009. Each bank subsidiary evaluates the level of its
non-performing assets, the values of the underlying real estate and other
collateral, and related trends in net charge-offs. Through pro-active credit
administration, the Banks work closely with borrowers to seek favorable
resolution to the extent possible, thereby attempting to minimize net
charge-offs or losses to the Company.
Most of the Company's non-performing assets are secured by real estate and,
based on the most current information available to management, including updated
appraisals where appropriate, the Company believes the value of the underlying
real estate collateral is adequate to minimize significant charge-offs or loss
to the Company.
Loans are designated non-accrual and the accrual of interest is discontinued
when the collection of the contractual principal or interest is unlikely. A loan
is typically placed on non-accrual when principal or interest is due and has
remained unpaid for ninety days or more unless the loan is in process of
collection and well-secured by collateral the fair value of which is sufficient
to pay off the debt in full. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status,
interest previously accrued but not collected is reversed against current period
interest income. Subsequent payments are applied to the outstanding principal
balance if doubt remains as to the ultimate collectability of the loan. 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.
Loans are designated impaired when, based upon current information and events,
it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments
of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan
agreement. The amount of the impairment is measured using cash flows discounted
at the loan's effective interest rate, except when it is determined that
repayment of the loan is expected to be provided solely by the underlying
collateral. For collateral dependent loans, impairment is measured by the fair
value of the collateral less the cost to sell. When the ultimate collectability
of the total principal of an impaired loan is in doubt and designated as
non-accrual, all payments are applied to principal under the cost recovery
method. When the ultimate collectability of the total principal on an impaired
loan is not in doubt, contractual interest is generally credited to interest
income when received under the cash basis method. Total interest income
recognized for impaired loans under the cash basis for the three months ended
March 31, 2010 and 2009 was not significant. Impaired loans were $223.5 million
and $100.1 million as of March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The ALLL
includes valuation allowances of $17.0 million and $10.7 million specific to
impaired loans as of March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
39
A restructured loan is considered a troubled debt restructuring if the creditor,
for economic or legal reasons related to the debtor's financial difficulties,
grants a concession to the debtor that it would not otherwise consider. The
Company's troubled debt restructuring loans are considered impaired loans. The
Company had troubled debt restructuring loans of $62.0 million as of March 31,
2010
Effect of Inflation and Changing Prices
Generally accepted accounting principles often require the measurement of
financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars, without
consideration for change in relative purchasing power over time due to
inflation. Virtually all assets of the Company and each bank subsidiary are
monetary in nature; therefore, interest rates generally have a more significant
impact on a company's performance than does the effect of inflation.
Lending Commitments
In the normal course of business, there are various outstanding commitments to
extend credit, such as letters of credit and un-advanced loan commitments, which
are not reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial
statements. Management does not anticipate any material losses as a result of
these transactions.
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the possibility that the Company will not be able to fund
present and future obligations. The objective of liquidity management is to
maintain cash flows adequate to meet current and future needs for credit demand,
deposit withdrawals, maturing liabilities and corporate operating expenses. The
Banks' source of funds is generated by deposits, principal and interest payments
on loans, sale of loans and securities, short and long-term borrowings, and net
earnings. In addition, all of the Banks are members of FHLB. As of March 31,
2010, the Banks had $1.495 billion of available FHLB credit of which $803
million was utilized. The Banks may also borrow funds through the FRB and from
the U.S. Treasury Tax and Loan program of which the Banks have remaining
borrowing availability of $372 million and $11 million, respectively. Management
of the Company has a wide range of versatility in managing the liquidity and
asset/liability mix for each bank subsidiary as well as the Company as a whole.
Capital Resources and Adequacy
Maintaining capital strength continues to be a long term objective. Abundant
capital is necessary to sustain growth, provide protection against unanticipated
declines in asset values, and to safeguard the funds of depositors. Capital also
is a source of funds for loan demand and enables the Company to effectively
manage its assets and liabilities. Stockholders' equity increased $156 million
since prior year, or 23 percent, the net result of earnings of $10 million, a
public offering of stock of $146 million, an increase in net unrealized gains on
available-for-sale investment securities, less cash dividend payments. The FRB
has adopted capital adequacy guidelines pursuant to which it assesses the
adequacy of capital in supervising a bank holding company.
Other-Than-Temporary Impairment on Securities Accounting Policy and Analysis
The Company views the determination of whether an investment security is
temporarily or other-than-temporarily impaired as a critical accounting policy,
as the estimate is susceptible to significant change from period to period
because it requires management to make significant judgments, assumptions and
estimates in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements. The
Company assesses individual securities in its investment securities portfolio
for impairment at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic
or market conditions warrant. An investment is impaired if the fair value of the
security is less than its carrying value at the financial statement date. If
impairment is determined to be other-than-temporary, an impairment loss is
recognized by reducing the amortized cost for the credit loss portion of the
impairment with a corresponding charge to earnings for a like amount.
40
The Company believes that macroeconomic conditions occurring the first three
months of 2010 and in 2009 have unfavorably impacted the fair value of certain
debt securities in its investment portfolio. For debt securities with limited or
inactive markets, the impact of these macroeconomic conditions upon fair value
estimates includes higher risk-adjusted discount rates and downgrades in credit
ratings provided by nationally recognized credit rating agencies, (e.g.,
Moody's, S&P, Fitch, and DBRS).
In evaluating equity securities for other-than-temporary impairment losses,
management assesses the Company's ability and intent to retain the equity
securities for a period of time sufficient to allow for anticipated recovery in
fair value. Equity securities owned at March 31, 2010 primarily consisted of
stock issued by the Federal Home Loan Bank and the Federal Reserve Bank, such
shares measured at cost for fair value purposes in recognition of the
transferability restrictions imposed by the issuers. In addition, the Company
owns 150,000 shares of Series O preferred stock issued by Federal Home Loan
Mortgage Corporation ("Freddie Mac") and 1,200 shares of common stock issued by
the Federal National Mortgage Association ("Fannie Mae"). The Freddie Mac and
Fannie Mae stock had a cost basis of $0 at March 31, 2010 due to the recognition
of an other-than-temporary impairment charge against earnings during 2008 for
the entire amount of the Company's investment therein. The fair value of other
stock was $8 thousand, with unrealized losses of $4 thousand or 51.6 percent of
fair value, at March 31, 2010.
In evaluating debt securities for other-than-temporary impairment, management
assesses whether the Company intends to sell or if it is more likely-than-not
that it will be required to sell impaired debt securities. In so doing,
management considers contractual constraints, liquidity, capital, asset /
liability management and securities portfolio objectives.
During the first quarter of 2010, the Company sold 15 securities of which 12
were tax-exempt State and Local Government securities, 9 of which were sold at a
gross realized gain aggregating $277 thousand, 3 of which were sold at a gross
realized loss aggregating $65 thousand, a net realized gain of $212 thousand. Of
the 15 securities, 3 were non-guaranteed private label whole loan mortgages, 2
of which were sold at a gross realized gain aggregating $113 thousand, 1 of
which was sold at a gross realized loss aggregating $11 thousand, a net realized
gain of $102 thousand. During the first half of 2009, the Company sold no
investment securities as the Company continued its then historical approach to
managing the investment portfolio, i.e., to "buy and hold" securities to
maturity, although such securities may be sold given that all of the securities
held in the investment portfolio are designated as "available-for-sale." Such
sales, as well as the sales in the first quarter 2010, were executed with the
proceeds used to buy additional investment securities such that the investment
portfolio performs well across varying interest rate environments. During the
second half of 2009, the Company sold 59 securities of which 53 were tax-exempt
State and Local Government securities, 7 of which were each sold at a gross
realized loss of $1.118 million and 46 of which were each sold at a gross
realized gain of $3.921 million, a net realized gain of $2.804 million. Of the
59 securities sold in the second half of 2009, 6 were residential
mortgage-backed securities, with such securities sold at a gross realized gain
aggregating $3.191 million. Of the securities sold at a realized loss, none had
previously been subject to an other-than-temporary impairment charge, and none
were subject to an expectation or requirement to sell. In 2008, the Company sold
only 1 security at neither gain nor loss for proceeds of $97.002 million. Such
security was acquired and held for 7 days as collateral to support a borrowing
at the U.S Treasury Tax and Loan program. Sales of securities in 2007 occurred
with respect to entire investment portfolios of acquired banks following mergers
into the Company's existing bank subsidiaries. Such sales occurred in
recognition that the acquired portfolios of investments were not consistent with
the Company's Investment Policy and Asset Liability Management Policy. With
respect to its impaired debt securities at March 31, 2010, management determined
that it does not intend to sell and that there is no expected requirement to
sell any of its impaired debt securities.
41
For fair value estimates provided by third party vendors, management also
considered the models and methodology, for appropriate consideration of both
observable and unobservable inputs, including appropriately adjusted discount
rates and credit spreads for securities with limited or inactive markets, and
whether the quoted prices reflect orderly transactions. For certain securities,
the Company obtained independent estimates of inputs, including cash flows, in
supplement to third party vendor provided information. The Company also reviewed
financial statements of select issuers, with follow up discussions with issuers'
management for clarification and verification of information relevant to the
Company's impairment analysis.
As of March 31, 2010, there were 227 investments in an unrealized loss position
and were considered to be temporarily impaired and therefore an impairment
charge has not been recorded. Residential mortgage-backed securities have the
largest unrealized loss. The fair value of these securities, which have
underlying collateral consisting of U.S. government sponsored enterprise
guaranteed mortgages and non-guaranteed private label whole loan mortgages, were
$488.965 million at March 31, 2010 of which $134.657 million was purchased
during 2010, the remainder of which had a fair market value of $378.710 million
at December 31, 2009. For the securities purchased in 2010, there has been an
unrealized loss of $1.613 million since purchase. Of the remaining residential
mortgage-backed securities in a loss position, the unrealized loss decreased
from 4.1 percent of fair value at December 31, 2009 to 2.4 percent of fair value
at March 31, 2010. The fair value of Collateralized Debt Obligation ("CDO")
securities in an unrealized loss position is $9.174 million, with unrealized
losses of $5.513 million at March 31, 2010; the unrealized loss decreased from
116.4 percent of fair value at December 31, 2009 to 60.1 percent of fair value
at March 31, 2010. The fair value of State and Local Government securities in an
unrealized loss position were $90.207 million at March 31, 2010 of which $12.401
million was purchased during 2010, the remainder of which had a fair market
value of $77.436 million at December 31, 2009. For the securities purchased in
2010, there has been an unrealized loss of $218 thousand since purchase. Of the
remaining State and Local Government securities in a loss position, the
unrealized loss decreased from 3.5 percent of fair value at December 31, 2009 to
2.9 percent of fair value at March 31, 2010.
With respect to the CDO securities, the fair value decline is primarily
attributable to a single CDO structure that is a pooled trust preferred security
of which the Company owns a portion of only the Senior Notes tranche. All of the
assets underlying such CDO structure are capital securities issued by trust
subsidiaries of holding companies of banks and thrifts. As of March 31, 2010 and
December 31, 2009, the Senior Notes are rated "A3" by Moody's and is rated "A"
by Fitch, and 6 of the 26 trust subsidiaries have elected to defer the interest
on their respective obligations underlying the CDO structure. As of the end of
the prior three quarters of 2009, only 3 of the 26 trust subsidiaries were
deferring interest on their respective obligations. In accordance with the
prospectus for the CDO structure, the priority of payments favors holders of the
Senior Notes over holders of the Mezzanine Notes and Income Notes. Though the
maturity of the CDO structure is June 15, 2031, 15.22% of the outstanding
principle of the Senior Notes has been prepaid through March 31, 2010 and
December 31, 2009. More specifically, at any time the Senior Notes are
outstanding, if either the Senior Principle or Senior Interest Coverage Tests
(the "Senior Coverage Tests") are not satisfied as of a calculation date, then
funds that would have otherwise been used to make payments on the Mezzanine
Notes or Income Notes shall instead be applied as principle prepayments on the
Senior Notes. As of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Senior Principle
Coverage Test was below its threshold level, while the Senior Interest Coverage
Test exceeded its threshold level. The Senior Coverage Tests exceeded the
threshold levels for each of the prior three quarters of 2009. In its assessment
of the Senior Notes for potential other-than-temporary impairment, the Company
evaluated the underlying issuers and engaged a third party vendor to stress test
the performance of the underlying capital securities and related obligors. Such
stress testing has been performed as of March 31, 2010 and as of the end of each
of the prior four quarters in 2009, i.e., December 31, September 30, June 30 and
March 31. In each instance of stress testing, the results reflect no credit loss
for the Senior Notes. In evaluating such results, the Company reviewed with the
third party vendor the stress test assumptions and concurred with the analyses
in concluding that the impairment at March 31, 2010 and the four quarters of
2009 was temporary, and not other-than-temporary.
42
The Company stratified the 227 debt securities for both severity and duration of
impairment. With respect to severity, the following table provides the number of
securities and amount of unrealized loss in the various ranges of unrealized
loss as a percent of book value.

With respect to the duration of the impaired securities, the Company identified
37 securities which have been continuously impaired for the 12 months ending
March 31, 2010. The valuation history of such securities in the prior year(s)
was also reviewed to determine the number of months in prior year(s) in which
the identified securities was in an unrealized loss position. 13 of these 37
securities are non-guaranteed private label whole loan mortgages with an
aggregate unrealized loss of $7,217,000, the most notable of which had an
unrealized loss of $1,239,000. 17 of the 37 securities are state and local
tax-exempt securities with an unrealized loss of $849,000, the most notable of
which had an unrealized loss of $215,000. 6 of the 37 securities are CDOs with
an aggregate unrealized loss of $5,473,000, the most notable of which had an
unrealized loss of $1,368,000.
Included in the 227 debt securities with impairment at March 31, 2010 are 13
non-guaranteed private label whole loan CMO tranches. 6 of the 13 CMO tranches
are collateralized by 30 year fixed residential mortgages considered to be
"Prime," and 7 are collateralized by 30 year fixed residential mortgages
considered to be "ALT - A." Moreover, none of the underlying mortgage collateral
is considered "subprime".
For impaired debt securities for which there was no intent or expected
requirement to sell, management considers available evidence to assess whether
it is more likely-than-not that all amounts due would not be collected. In such
assessment, management considers the severity and duration of the impairment,
the credit ratings of the security, the overall deal and payment structure,
including the Company's position within the structure, underlying obligors,
financial condition and near term prospects of the issuer, delinquencies,
defaults, loss severities, recoveries, prepayments, cumulative loss projections,
discounted cash flows and fair value estimates. Based on the analysis of its
impaired securities as of March 31, 2010, the Company determined that none of
such securities had other-than-temporary impairment.
Fair Value Measurements
FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures requires the Company
to disclose information relating to fair value. Fair value is defined as the
price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in
an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. FASB
established a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use
of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring
fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to
measure fair value:
43
Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2 Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for
similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not
active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by
observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or
liabilities
Level 3 Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity
and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities
In April 2009, FASB issued an amendment to ASC Topic 820, Fair Value
Measurements and Disclosures, relating to determining fair value when the volume
and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased
and identifying transactions that are not orderly. The Company adopted the
standard effective for the interim period ending June 30, 2009 and determined
there was not a material effect on the Company's financial position or results
of operations.
On a recurring basis, the Company measures investment securities at fair value.
The fair value of such investments is estimated by obtaining quoted market
prices for identical assets, where available. If such prices are not available,
fair value is based on independent asset pricing services and models, the inputs
of which are market-based or independently sourced market parameters, including,
but not limited to, yield curves, interest rates, volatilities, prepayments,
defaults, cumulative loss projections, and cash flows. For those securities
where greater reliance on unobservable inputs occurs, such securities are
classified as Level 3 within the hierarchy.
In performing due diligence reviews of the independent asset pricing services
and models for investment securities, the Company reviewed the vendors' inputs
for fair value estimates and the recommended assignments of levels within the
fair value hierarchy. The Company's review included the extent to which markets
for investment securities were determined to have limited or no activity, or was
judged to be an active market. The Company reviewed the extent to which
observable and unobservable inputs were used as well as the appropriateness of
the underlying assumptions about risk that a market participant would use in
active markets, with adjustments for limited or inactive markets. In considering
the inputs to the fair value estimates, the Company placed less reliance on
quotes that were judged to not reflect orderly transactions, or were non-binding
indications. The Company made independent inquires of other knowledgeable
parties in testing the reliability of the inputs, including consideration for
illiquidity, credit risk, and cash flow estimates. In assessing credit risk, the
Company reviewed payment performance, collateral adequacy, credit rating
histories, and issuers' financial statements with follow-up discussion with
issuers. For those markets determined to be inactive, the valuation techniques
used were models for which management verified that discount rates were
appropriately adjusted to reflect illiquidity and credit risk. The Company
independently obtained cash flow estimates that were stressed at levels that
exceeded those used by independent third party pricing vendors. Based on the
Company's due diligence review, investment securities are placed in the
appropriate hierarchy levels with adjustment to vendors' recommendations made as
necessary. Most notably, the Company determined that its collateralized debt
obligation securities, i.e., trust preferred securities, were illiquid due to
inactive markets (i.e., due to the absence of trade volume during 2009 and the
first three months of 2010), the fair values of which had significant reliance
on unobservable inputs, and therefore were classified as Level 3 within the
hierarchy.
44
On a non-recurring basis, the Company measures real estate and other assets
owned and impaired loans at fair value. Real estate and other assets owned is
carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair value, less estimated cost to
sell. Estimated fair value of real estate and other assets owned is based on
appraisals. The Company reviews the appraisals, giving consideration to the
highest and best use of the collateral. The appraised values are reduced by
discounts to consider lack of marketability and estimated cost to sell. Real
estate and other assets owned are classified within Level 3 of the fair value
hierarchy. Impaired loans are collateral-dependent and the estimated fair value
is based on the appraised fair value of the collateral, less estimated cost to
sell. The Company reviews the appraisals, giving consideration to the highest
and best use of the collateral. The appraised values are reduced by discounts to
consider lack of marketability and estimated cost to sell. Impaired loans are
classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
In addition to measuring certain financial assets and liabilities on a recurring
or non-recurring basis, the Company discloses estimated fair value on financial
assets and liabilities. The following is a description of the methods and inputs
used to estimate the fair value of other financial instruments recognized at
amounts other than fair value.
The fair value for unimpaired loans, net of ALLL, is estimated by discounting
the future cash flows using the rates at which similar notes would be originated
for the same remaining maturities. The market rates used are based on current
rates the bank subsidiaries would impose for similar loans and reflect a market
participant assumption about risks associated with non-performance, illiquidity,
and the structure and term of the loans along with local economic and market
conditions.
The fair value of term deposits is estimated by discounting the future cash
flows using rates of similar deposits with similar maturities. The market rates
used were obtained from a knowledgeable independent third party and reviewed by
the Company. The rates were the average of current rates offered by local
competitors of the bank subsidiaries. The estimated fair value of demand, NOW,
savings, and money market deposits is the book value since rates are regularly
adjusted to market rates.
The fair value of the non-callable FHLB advances is estimated by discounting the
future cash flows using rates of similar advances with similar maturities. These
rates were obtained from current rates offered by FHLB. The estimated fair value
of callable FHLB advances was obtained from FHLB and the model was reviewed by
the Company through discussions with FHLB.
The fair value of FRB discount window borrowings is estimated based on borrowing
rates currently available to the Company for FRB discount window borrowings with
similar terms and maturities. As of March 31, 2010 there are no outstanding FRB
discount window borrowings.
The fair value of term repurchase agreements is estimated based on current
repurchase rates currently available to the Company for repurchases agreements
with similar terms and maturities. The market rates used are based on current
rates the bank subsidiaries would incur for similar borrowings. The estimated
fair value for overnight repurchase agreements and other borrowings is book
value.
The fair value of the subordinated debentures is estimated by discounting the
estimated future cash flows using current estimated market rates for
subordinated debt issuances with similar characteristics. The market rates used
were based on an independent third party's judgment and include inputs such as
implied yield curves and interest rate spreads.
For additional information on fair value measurements see Note 13, Fair Value
Measurement, in "ITEM 1. Financial Statements."

Impact of Recent Authoritative Accounting Guidance
The Accounting Standards Codification is FASB's officially recognized source of
authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") applicable
to all public and non-public non-governmental entities. Rules and interpretive
releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") under the authority
of the federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC
registrants. All other accounting literature is considered non-authoritative.
In January 2010, FASB issued an amendment to FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value
Measurements and Disclosures, that provides for more robust disclosures about 1)
the different classes of assets and liabilities measured at fair value, 2) the
valuation techniques and inputs used, 3) the activity in Level 3 fair value
measurements, and 4) the transfers between Levels 1, 2, and 3. The new
disclosures are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning
after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about the activity in Level
3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2010. The Company has evaluated the impact of the
adoption of this standard and determined there was not a material effect on the
Company's financial position or results of operations.
In June 2009, FASB issued an amendment to FASB ASC Topic 810, Consolidation. The
objective of this standard is to amend certain requirements to improve financial
reporting by enterprises involved with variable interest entities and to provide
more relevant and reliable information to users of financial statements. This
standard is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity's first
annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods
within that first annual reporting period, and for interim and annual reporting
periods thereafter. The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of this
standard and determined there was not a material effect on the Company's
financial position or results of operations.
In June 2009, FASB issued an amendment to FASB ASC Topic 860, Transfers and
Servicing. The objective of this standard is to improve the relevance,
representational faithfulness, and comparability of the information that a
reporting entity provides in its financial reports about a transfer of financial
assets; the effects of a transfer on its financial position, financial
performance, and cash flows; and a transferor's continuing involvement in
transferred financial assets. This standard is effective as of the beginning of
each reporting entity's first annual reporting period that begins after November
15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period, and for
interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. The Company has evaluated the
impact of the adoption of this standard and determined there was not a material
effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

47
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
There are no pending material legal proceedings to which the registrant or its
subsidiaries are a party.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
The Company and its eleven wholly-owned, independent community bank subsidiaries
are exposed to certain risks. The following is a discussion of the most
significant risks and uncertainties that may affect the Company's business,
financial condition and future results.
The Company cannot accurately predict the effect of the continuing economic
downturn on the Company's future results of operations or the market price of
its common stock.
The national economy and the financial services sector in particular continue to
face challenges of a scope unprecedented in recent history. The Company cannot
accurately predict the severity or duration of the continuing economic downturn,
which has adversely impacted the Company's markets. Any further deterioration in
the economies of the nation as a whole or in the Company's markets would have an
adverse effect, which could be material, on the Company's business, financial
condition, results of operations and prospects, and could also cause the market
price of the Company's common stock to decline. While the Company cannot
accurately predict how long these conditions may exist, the economic downturn
could continue to present risks for some time for the industry and Company.
Further economic deterioration in the market areas the Company serves, including
Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Utah, Colorado and Washington, as well as the
continuation of the current economic downturn, may continue to adversely impact
earnings and could increase credit risk associated with the loan portfolio.
The inability of borrowers to repay loans can erode earnings by reducing
earnings and by requiring the Company to add to its allowance for loan and lease
losses. The effects of the national economic downturn are significantly
impacting the market areas the Company serves. Further deterioration in the
market areas the Company serves, as well as the continuation of the current
economic downturn, could result in the following consequences, any of which
could have an adverse impact, which could be material, on the Company's
business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects:
- loan delinquencies may increase further;
- problem assets and foreclosures may increase further;
- collateral for loans made may decline further in value, in turn
reducing customers' borrowing power, reducing the value of assets and
collateral associated with existing loans;
- demand for banking products and services may decline; and
- low cost or non-interest bearing deposits may decrease.
48
The allowance for loan and lease losses may not be adequate to cover actual loan
losses, which could adversely affect earnings.
The Company maintains an ALLL in an amount that it believes is adequate to
provide for losses in the loan portfolio. While the Company strives to carefully
manage and monitor credit quality and to identify loans that may become
non-performing, at any time there are loans included in the portfolio that will
result in losses, but that have not been identified as non-performing or
potential problem loans. By closely monitoring credit quality, the Company
attempts to identify deteriorating loans before they become nonperforming assets
and adjust the ALLL accordingly. However, because future events are uncertain,
and if the economic downturn continues or deteriorates further, there may be
loans that deteriorate to a non-performing status in an accelerated time frame.
As a result, future additions to the ALLL may be necessary. Because the loan
portfolio contains a number of loans with relatively large balances, the
deterioration of one or a few of these loans may cause a significant increase in
non-performing loans, requiring an increase to the ALLL. Additionally, future
significant additions to the ALLL may be required based on changes in the mix of
loans comprising the portfolio, changes in the financial condition of borrowers,
which may result from changes in economic conditions, or as a result of
incorrect assumptions by management in determining the ALLL. Additionally,
federal banking regulators, as an integral part of their supervisory function,
periodically review the Company's loan portfolio and the adequacy of the ALLL.
These regulatory agencies may require the Company to recognize further loan loss
provisions or charge-offs based upon their judgments, which may be different
from the Company's judgments. Any increase in the ALLL would have an adverse
effect, which could be material, on the Company's financial condition and
results of operations.
The Company has a high concentration of loans secured by real estate, so any
further deterioration in the real estate markets could require material
increases in ALLL and adversely affect the Company's financial condition and
results of operations.
A continuation of the downturn in the economic conditions or real estate values
of the Company's market areas, and particularly a further deterioration of such
economic conditions or real estate values, may cause the Company to have lower
earnings and could increase credit risk associated with the loan portfolio, as
the collateral securing those loans may decrease in value. The continued
downturn in the local economy or a further deterioration of the local economy
could have a material adverse effect both on the borrowers' ability to repay
these loans, as well as the value of the real property held as collateral. The
Company's ability to recover on these loans by selling or disposing of the
underlying real estate collateral is adversely impacted by declining real estate
values, which increases the likelihood that the Company will suffer losses on
defaulted loans secured by real estate beyond the amounts provided for in the
ALLL. This, in turn, could require material increases in the ALLL which would
adversely affect the Company's financial condition and results of operations,
perhaps materially.
A continued tightening of the credit markets may make it difficult to obtain
adequate funding for loan growth, which could adversely affect earnings.
A continued tightening of the credit markets and the inability to obtain or
retain adequate funds for continued loan growth at an acceptable cost may
negatively affect the Company's asset growth and liquidity position and,
therefore, earnings capability. In addition to core deposit growth, maturity of
investment securities and loan payments, the Company also relies on alternative
funding sources through correspondent banking, and borrowing lines with the FRB
and FHLB to fund loans. In the event the current economic downturn continues,
particularly in the housing market, these resources could be negatively
affected, both as to price and availability, which would limit and or raise the
cost of the funds available to the Company.
49
There can be no assurance the Company will be able to continue paying dividends
on the common stock at recent levels.
The ability to pay dividends on the Company's common stock depends on a variety
of factors. The Company paid dividends of $0.13 per share in each quarter of
2009 and the first quarter of 2010. There can be no assurance that the Company
will be able to continue paying quarterly dividends commensurate with recent
levels. In that regard, the Federal Reserve now is requiring the Company to
provide prior written notice and related information for staff review before
declaring or paying dividends. In addition, current guidance from the Federal
Reserve provides, among other things, that dividends per share generally should
not exceed earnings per share. As a result, future dividends will depend on
sufficient earnings to support them. Furthermore, the Company's ability to pay
dividends depends on the amount of dividends paid to the Company by its
subsidiaries, which is also subject to government regulation, oversight and
review. In addition, the ability of some of the bank subsidiaries to pay
dividends to the Company is subject to prior regulatory approval.
The Company may not be able to continue to grow organically or through
acquisitions.
Historically, the Company has expanded through a combination of organic growth
and acquisitions. If market and regulatory conditions remain challenging, the
Company may be unable to grow organically or successfully complete potential
future acquisitions. In particular, while the Company intends to focus any
near-term acquisition efforts on FDIC-assisted transactions within its existing
market areas, there can be no assurance that such opportunities will become
available on terms that are acceptable to the Company. Furthermore, there can be
no assurance that the Company can successfully complete such transactions, since
they are subject to a formal bid process and regulatory review and approval.
The FDIC has increased insurance premiums to rebuild and maintain the federal
deposit insurance fund and there may be additional future premium increases and
special assessments.
The FDIC adopted a final rule revising its risk-based assessment system,
effective April 1, 2009. The changes to the assessment system involve
adjustments to the risk-based calculation of an institution's unsecured debt,
secured liabilities and brokered deposits. The revisions effectively result in a
range of possible assessments under the risk-based system of 7 to 77.5 basis
points. The potential increase in FDIC insurance premiums could have a
significant impact on the Company.
On May 22, 2009, the FDIC imposed a special deposit insurance assessment of five
basis points on all insured institutions. This emergency assessment was
calculated based on the insured institution's assets at June 30, 2009, and
collected on September 30, 2009. This special assessment was in addition to the
regular quarterly risk-based assessment.
The FDIC also has recently required insured institutions to prepay estimated
quarterly risk-based assessments for the fourth quarter of 2009 and for 2010,
2011 and 2012, and increased the regular assessment rate by three basis points
effective January 1, 2011, as a means of replenishing the deposit insurance
fund. The prepayment was collected on December 30, 2009, and was accounted for
as a prepaid expense amortized over the prepayment period.
The FDIC deposit insurance fund may suffer additional losses in the future due
to bank failures. There can be no assurance that there will not be additional
significant deposit insurance premium increases, special assessments or
prepayments in order to restore the insurance fund's reserve ratio. Any
significant premium increases or special assessments could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and results of operations.
50
The Company's loan portfolio mix increases the exposure to credit risks tied to
deteriorating conditions.
The loan portfolio contains a high percentage of commercial, commercial real
estate, real estate acquisition and development loans in relation to the total
loans and total assets. These types of loans have historically been viewed as
having more risk of default than residential real estate loans or certain other
types of loans or investments. In fact, the FDIC has issued pronouncements
alerting banks of its concern about banks with a heavy concentration of
commercial real estate loans. These types of loans also typically are larger
than residential real estate loans and other commercial loans. Because the
Company's loan portfolio contains a significant number of commercial and
commercial real estate loans with relatively large balances, the deterioration
of one or more of these loans may cause a significant increase in non-performing
loans. An increase in non-performing loans could result in a loss of earnings
from these loans, an increase in the provision for loan losses, or an increase
in loan charge-offs, which could have an adverse impact on results of operations
and financial condition.
Non-performing assets have increased significantly and could continue to
increase, which could adversely affect the Company's results of operations and
financial condition.
Non-performing assets (which include foreclosed real estate) adversely affects
the Company's net income and financial condition in various ways. The Company
does not record interest income on non-accrual loans or other real estate owned,
thereby adversely affecting its income. When the Company takes collateral in
foreclosures and similar proceedings, it is required to mark the related asset
to the then fair market value of the collateral less cost to sell, which may
result in a charge-off of the value of the asset and lead the Company to
increase the provision for loan losses. An increase in the level of
non-performing assets also increases the Company's risk profile and may impact
the capital levels its regulators believe is appropriate in light of such risks.
Continued decreases in the value of these assets, or the underlying collateral,
or in these borrowers' performance or financial condition, whether or not due to
economic and market conditions beyond the Company's control, could adversely
affect the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition,
perhaps materially. In addition to the carrying costs to maintain other real
estate owned, the resolution of non-performing assets increases the Company's
loan administration costs generally, and requires significant commitments of
time from management and the Company's directors, which can be detrimental to
performance of their other responsibilities. There can be no assurance that the
Company will not experience further increases in non-performing assets in the
future.
The Company's ability to access markets for funding and acquire and retain
customers could be adversely affected by the deterioration of other financial
institutions or to the extent the financial service industry's reputation is
damaged.
Reputation risk is the risk to liquidity, earnings and capital arising from
negative publicity regarding the financial services industry. The financial
services industry continues to be featured in negative headlines about the
global and national credit crisis and the resulting stabilization legislation
enacted by the U.S. federal government. These reports can be damaging to the
industry's image and potentially erode consumer confidence in insured financial
institutions, such as the Company's bank subsidiaries. In addition, the
Company's ability to engage in routine funding and other transactions could be
adversely affected by the actions and financial condition of other financial
institutions. Financial services institutions are interrelated as a result of
trading, clearing, correspondent, counterparty or other relationships. As a
result, defaults by, or even rumors or questions about, one or more financial
services institutions, or the financial services industry in general, could lead
to market-wide liquidity problems, losses of depositor, creditor and
counterparty confidence and could lead to losses or defaults by us or by other
institutions. The Company could experience material changes in the level of
deposits as a direct or indirect result of other banks' difficulties or failure,
which could affect the amount of capital needed.
51
Decline in the fair value of the Company's investment portfolio could adversely
affect earnings
The fair value of the Company's investment securities could decline as a result
of factors including changes in market interest rates, credit quality and
ratings, lack of market liquidity and other economic conditions. Investment
securities are impaired if the fair value of the security is less than the
carrying value. When a security is impaired, the Company determines whether
impairment is temporary or other-than-temporary. If an impairment is determined
to be other-than temporary, an impairment loss is recognized by reducing the
amortized cost only for the credit loss associated with an other-than-temporary
loss with a corresponding charge to earnings for a like amount.
Fluctuating interest rates can adversely affect profitability.
The Company's profitability is dependent to a large extent upon net interest
income, which is the difference (or "spread") between the interest earned on
loans, securities and other interest-earning assets and interest paid on
deposits, borrowings, and other interest-bearing liabilities. Because of the
differences in maturities and repricing characteristics of interest-earning
assets and interest-bearing liabilities, changes in interest rates do not
produce equivalent changes in interest income earned on interest-earning assets
and interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities. Accordingly, fluctuations in
interest rates could adversely affect the Company's interest rate spread, and,
in turn, profitability. The Company seeks to manage its interest rate risk
within well established guidelines. Generally, the Company seeks an asset and
liability structure that insulates net interest income from large deviations
attributable to changes in market rates. However, the Company's structures and
practices to manage interest rate risk may not be effective in a highly volatile
rate environment.
If the goodwill recorded in connection with acquisitions becomes impaired, it
could have an adverse impact on earnings and capital.
Accounting standards require that the Company account for acquisitions using the
acquisition method of accounting. Under acquisition accounting, if the purchase
price of an acquired company exceeds the fair value of its net assets, the
excess is carried on the acquiror's balance sheet as goodwill. In accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America,
goodwill is not amortized but rather is evaluated for impairment on an annual
basis or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that a potential
impairment exists. Although at the current time the Company has not incurred an
impairment of goodwill, there can be no assurance that future evaluations of
goodwill will not result in findings of impairment and write-downs, which could
be material. An impairment of goodwill could have a material adverse affect on
the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.
Furthermore, an impairment of goodwill could subject the Company to regulatory
limitations, including the ability to pay dividends on common stock.
Growth through future acquisitions could, in some circumstances, adversely
affect profitability or other performance measures.
The Company has in recent years acquired other financial institutions. The
Company may in the future engage in selected acquisitions of additional
financial institutions, including transactions that may receive assistance from
the FDIC, although there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to
successfully complete any such transactions. There are risks associated with any
such acquisitions that could adversely affect profitability and other
performance measures. These risks include, among other things, incorrectly
assessing the asset quality of a financial institution being acquired,
encountering greater than anticipated cost of integrating acquired businesses
into the Company's operations, and being unable to profitably deploy funds
acquired in an acquisition. The Company cannot provide any assurance as to the
extent to which the Company can continue to grow through acquisitions or the
impact of such acquisitions on the Company's operating results or financial
condition.
The Company anticipates that it might issue capital stock in connection with
future acquisitions. Acquisitions and related issuances of stock may have a
dilutive effect on earnings per share and the percentage ownership of current
shareholders.
52
The Company may pursue additional capital in the future, which could dilute the
holders of the Company's outstanding common stock and may adversely affect the
market price of common stock.
In the current economic environment, the Company believes it is prudent to
consider alternatives for raising capital when opportunities to raise capital at
attractive prices present themselves, in order to further strengthen the
Company's capital and better position itself to take advantage of opportunities
that may arise in the future. Such alternatives may include issuance and sale of
common or preferred stock, trust preferred securities, or borrowings by the
Company, with proceeds contributed to the bank subsidiaries. Any such capital
raising alternatives could dilute the holders of the Company's outstanding
common stock, and may adversely affect the market price of our common stock and
performance measures such as earnings per share.
Business would be harmed if the Company lost the services of any of the senior
management team.
The Company believes its success to date has been substantially dependent on its
Chief Executive Officer and other members of the executive management team, and
on the Presidents of its bank subsidiaries. The loss of any of these persons
could have an adverse effect on the Company's business and future growth
prospects.
Competition in the Company's market areas may limit future success.
Commercial banking is a highly competitive business. The Company competes with
other commercial banks, savings and loan associations, credit unions, finance,
insurance and other non-depository companies operating in its market areas. The
Company is subject to substantial competition for loans and deposits from other
financial institutions. Some of its competitors are not subject to the same
degree of regulation and restriction as the Company. Some of the Company's
competitors have greater financial resources than the Company. If the Company is
unable to effectively compete in its market areas, the Company's business,
results of operations and prospects could be adversely affected.
The Company operates in a highly regulated environment and may be adversely
affected by regulatory requirements or changes in federal state and local laws
and regulations.
The Company is subject to extensive regulation, supervision and examination by
federal and state banking authorities. In addition, as a publicly traded
company, the Company is subject to regulation by the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Any change in applicable regulations or federal, state or local
legislation could have a substantial impact on the Company and its operations.
Additional legislation and regulations that could significantly affect the
Company's powers, authority and operations may be enacted or adopted in the
future, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial
condition and results of operations. Further, regulators have significant
discretion and authority to prevent or remedy unsafe or unsound practices or
violations of laws or regulations by financial institutions and holding
companies in the performance of their supervisory and enforcement duties.
Recently these powers have been utilized more frequently and extensively due to
the serious national, regional and local economic conditions the Company is
facing. In addition, regulatory oversight of and expectations for regulated
banking institutions have increased, both generally and for the Company and its
bank subsidiaries. The exercise of regulatory authority may have a negative
impact on the Company's financial condition and results of operations.
The Company cannot predict the actual effects of recent legislation or the
proposed regulatory reform measures and various governmental, regulatory,
monetary and fiscal initiatives which have been and may be enacted on the
financial markets, on the Company and its subsidiaries. The terms and costs of
these activities, or the failure of these actions to help stabilize the
financial markets, asset prices, market liquidity and a continuation or
worsening of current financial market and economic conditions could materially
and adversely affect the Company's business, financial condition, results of
operations, and the trading price of common stock.
