ITEM 2 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Farmers & Merchants Bancorp, Inc. was incorporated on February 25, 1985, under the laws of the State of Ohio. Farmers & Merchants Bancorp, Inc., and its subsidiaries The Farmers & Merchants State Bank and Farmers & Merchants Life Insurance Company are engaged in commercial banking and life and disability insurance, respectively. The executive offices of Farmers & Merchants Bancorp, Inc. are located at 307-11 North Defiance Street, Archbold, Ohio 43502. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Liquidity for the three months ended March 31, 2002 comes primarily from net income from operations of $1.9 million. This compares with net income of $1.9 million for the same period in 2001. In addition, funds were purchased from correspondents, and the Federal Home Loan Bank when needed. During the year loan balances were reduced by 3.3 million. This was primarily due to the payoff of several participation loans with another institution, and also the refinancing of variable rate mortgages that were on the banks books into fixed rate loans that were sold on the secondary market. This also added substantially to the banks liquidity position as is reflected by the amount of federal funds sold. Loan loss reserve was reduced during the quarter due to a large commercial charge off. The level of the reserve is still considered to be adequate to cover any additional loan losses. The following is a summary of five capital ratios as they are calculated from the March 31, 2002 financial statements. As of March 31, 2002 the most recent notification from FDIC indicate the Bank was categorized as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To remain categorized as well capitalized, the Bank will have to maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based, and Tier 1 leverage ratios as disclosed in the table below. There are no conditions or events since the most recent notification that management believes have changed the Bank's prompt corrective action category. Primary Ratio 11.33% Total Capital Ratio 13.82% Risk Based Capital Tier 1 15.65% Risk Based Capital Tier 2 20.66% Stockholders' Equity/Total Assets 10.56% MARKET RISK Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates and equity prices. The primary market risk to which the Company is subject is interest rate risk. The majority of the Company's interest rate risk arises from the instruments, positions and transactions entered into for purposes other than trading such as loans, available for sales securities, interest bearing deposits, short term borrowings and long term borrowings. Interest rate risk occurs when interest bearing assets and liabilities reprice at different times as market interest rates change. For example, if fixed rate assets are funded with variable rate debt, the spread between asset and liability rates will decline or turn negative if rates increase. Interest rate risk is managed within an overall asset/liability framework for the Company. The principal objectives of asset/liability management are to manage sensitivity of net interest spreads and net income to potential changes in interest rates. Funding positions are kept within predetermined limits designed to ensure that risk-taking is not excessive and that liquidity is properly managed. The Company employs a sensitivity analysis in the form of a net interest income to help in the analysis. 5
